Value-Based Education Model to Enhance Emotional Intelligence, Positive Character, and Fighting Techniques of Junior Tarung Derajat Athletes

This study addresses the low improvement in training outcomes, particularly in mastering character-intelligence and fighting skills among junior athletes in Tarung Derajat martial arts. The research aims to determine the effectiveness of the BMB3 learning strategy in enhancing these aspects for early-age athletes at Kurata levels III (ages 10–12) and IV (ages 13–14). The study employed an experimental method using a one-group pretest-posttest design. The sample consisted of 30 athletes from the UNP Padang training center, selected through stratified-cluster random sampling. Data collection instruments included a Character-Intelligence Questionnaire and a Tarung Derajat fighting ability test. Descriptive statistics were used to reveal training conditions, while hypothesis testing employed the t-test. The results show: (1) a significant improvement in character-intelligence for 12-year-old athletes (Kurata III) with t = 6.22, p = 0.00; (2) a significant improvement for 14-year-old athletes (Kurata IV) with t = 11.81, p = 0.00; (3) a significant increase in fighting ability for 12-year-olds with t = 6.52, p = 0.00; and (4) a significant improvement in fighting ability for 14-year-olds with t = 7.05, p = 0.00. These findings demonstrate that the BMB3 learning strategy effectively enhances both character-intelligence and fighting skills in junior Tarung Derajat athletes

Rancangan Tata Letak Penyimpanan Bahan Baku Menggunakan Metode Class-Based Storage Berdasarkan Turnover Ratio di Gudang PT X Bandung

This study examines the implementation of the class-based storage method in designing the raw material storage layout at the PT X Bandung warehouse. Currently, raw materials are stored randomly, resulting in inefficiencies such as increased travel distances, difficulty in locating items, and higher physical workload for warehouse operators. To address these issues, the class-based storage method is applied by categorizing materials based on their movement frequency using FSN (Fast, Slow, and Non-Moving) Analysis, enabling more optimal placement.Data was collected through direct measurement of item movement distances in both the current and proposed layouts, supported by warehouse layout simulations. The results indicate that implementing this method reduced the total movement distance from 1,194,342 cm to 948,294 cm, representing a 20.6% reduction, thereby significantly improving operational efficiency.Moreover, the combination of dedicated and shared storage allows for more flexible space utilization, especially for returned raw materials. It is recommended that PT X integrate this method with periodic demand reviews and staff training to ensure sustained warehouse performance and more streamlined logistics processe

Developing E-LKPD based on Creative Problem Solving to Enhance Higher Order Thinking Skills and Learner Autonomy in Topics Related to Progressive and Standing Waves

This study aims to produce a valid, practical, and effective E-LKPD utilizing Creative Problem Solving (CPS) approach to enhance both Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) and the independent learning attitude of students in topics related to progressive and standing waves. The research method employed was Research and Development utilizing the 4-D development design model, which includes the phases: Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate; however, Disseminate phase was not implemented. The validity of the E-LKPD CPS was assessed by material and media validators. Its practicality was evaluated based on the feasibility of implementing the E-LKPD CPS during the learning process as observed. The effectiveness of the E-LKPD CPS was determined through N-gain tests, while user response was gathered via response questionnaire. Data analysis was conducted using quantitative descriptive methods. The E-LKPD CPS was pilot-tested in a limited setting at MAN 2 Yogyakarta, involving 33 MIPA 1 as experimental group and another 33 as control group (MIPA 2). The E-LKPD CPS received validity scores of 97.47% from content experts and 95.48% from media experts, both considered very valid. Its practicality scored at 84.08% (good). The effectiveness of the E-LKPD CPS in enhancing HOTS was demonstrated with experimental group N-gain of 70.69%, compared to the control group's 63.70%, both deemed moderately effective. The effectiveness in fostering independent learning attitudes yielded N-gain of 74.28% for the experimental group and 67.23% for the control group, also rated as moderately effective. Student response was highly favorable at 91.33% (very good). Consequently, the developed E-LKPD CPS is declared valid, practical, and effective for implementation in educational settings

The Impact of Gymnastics Learning on the Endurance Improvement of Seventh Grade Students at State Junior High School 6 in Bengkulu City

This research was conducted to address the low level of physical fitness, particularly VO₂Max, among junior high school female students, which impacts their overall health and physical performance. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of poco-poco and SKJ 2021 aerobic exercise programs, along with the influence of exercise motivation, on the improvement of VO₂Max in female students at SMP Negeri 6 Bengkulu. The study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental method with a 2x2 factorial design. A total of 24 female students were selected through total sampling and divided into four treatment groups. The exercise was conducted over 12 sessions, and VO₂Max was measured using the Multistage Fitness Test (MFT). The results revealed that the group performing SKJ 2021 with high motivation (A2B1) achieved the highest average posttest VO₂Max score of 41.2 ml/kg/min, while the poco-poco group with low motivation (A1B2) had the lowest average score of 35.6 ml/kg/min. Two-way ANOVA analysis showed a significant effect of both exercise type and motivation level on VO₂Max (p < 0.05). The interaction between exercise and motivation was also statistically significant. These findings conclude that the combination of structured aerobic exercise and high motivation significantly enhances cardiovascular endurance in female junior high school students
