Problematika Pendidikan: Analisis Kendala Pembelajaran di Sekolah Dasar Berdasarkan Hasil Belajar Siswa

Education plays a vital role in human life. Every person deserves access to fair and equal educational opportunities. However, numerous challenges persist within the education system. At the elementary school level, one of the common issues is the difficulty students face during the learning process. Throughout teaching and learning activities, various obstacles often arise, which can be identified through the students' academic performance. These learning outcomes serve as measurable indicators to evaluate the effectiveness of educational processes. This study aims to explore the learning barriers in elementary schools as reflected in students' academic achievements. A descriptive method with a qualitative approach was employed in the research. The results highlight specific learning constraints present in elementary schools, as identified through students’ learning outcomes

Optimizing digital learning through the ADDIE instructional approach in an arduino based automatic plant watering prototype project using a capacitive soil and moisture sensor

This study assesses the effectiveness of project-based digital learning in which students design a prototype of an Arduino-based intelligent watering and capacitive soil moisture sensor by following the ADDIE flow. The design used was ex post facto descriptive-correlational in one class totaling 117 students, conducted in Indonesia, where traditional farming methods dominate. Achievement data was taken from six components of the assessment (participatory activities, project scores, assignments, quizzes, middle exams, and final exams). Descriptive statistics are visualized through histograms and box-plots; Pearson correlation tests and multiple linear regression were performed to predict the contribution of each component to the final exam, while the technical validity of the prototype was evaluated in ten laboratory cycles using p-charts and Kaplan Meier analysis. The results showed that the value of clustered projects was in the high category (M = 86.8; SD = 7.1) and significantly correlated with the final exam (r = 0.54; β = 0.22; p < 0.01), explaining ± 22 % additional cognitive variance after the formative test was controlled. Participatory activities had a moderate correlation with the final exam (r ≈ 0.50), signaling a transfer of problem-solving skills acquired during prototype collaboration. Tool reliability tests showed 70% of prototypes were in stable function within the first ten cycles; All points were within control limits although the three initial failures hinted at the need for advanced sensor calibration. Learning constraints such as low quiz and assignment scores and wiring/coding difficulties were addressed through micro-deadlines, quick feedback, pair-programming clinics, and prerequisite videos. These findings confirm that ADDIE-based IoT projects can simultaneously improve students' knowledge, practical skills, and problem-solving disposition, provided they are accompanied by pedagogical supports and ongoing technical validation.Penelitian ini menilai efektivitas pembelajaran digital berbasis proyek di mana mahasiswa merancang prototipe penyiraman cerdas berbasis Arduino dan sensor kelembapan tanah kapasitif dengan mengikuti alur ADDIE. Desain yang digunakan adalah ex post facto deskriptif‑korelasional pada satu kelas berjumlah 117 mahasiswa. Data capaian diambil dari enam komponen penilaian (aktivitas partisipatif, nilai proyek, tugas, kuis, Ujian tengah, dan Ujian akhir). Statistik deskriptif divisualisasikan melalui histogram dan box‑plot; uji korelasi Pearson dan regresi linier berganda dilakukan untuk memprediksi kontribusi tiap komponen terhadap Ujian akhir, sedangkan validitas teknis prototipe dievaluasi dalam sepuluh siklus laboratorium memakai p‑chart dan analisis Kaplan–Meier. Hasil menunjukkan nilai proyek terkluster pada kategori tinggi (M = 86,8; SD = 7,1) dan berkorelasi signifikan dengan Ujian akhir (r = 0,54; β = 0,22; p < 0,01), menjelaskan ± 22 % variansi kognitif tambahan setelah tes formatif dikendalikan. Aktivitas partisipatif memiliki korelasi moderat dengan Ujian akhir (r ≈ 0,50), menandakan transfer kemampuan pemecahan masalah yang diperoleh selama kolaborasi prototipe. Uji reliabilitas alat memperlihatkan 70 % prototipe berfungsi stabil dalam sepuluh siklus pertama; seluruh titik berada dalam batas kendali meskipun tiga kegagalan awal mengisyaratkan perlunya kalibrasi sensor lanjutan. Kendala pembelajaran seperti nilai kuis dan tugas rendah serta kesulitan wiring/kode ditangani melalui micro‑deadline, umpan balik cepat, klinik pair‑programming, dan video prasyarat. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa proyek IoT berkerangka ADDIE dapat secara simultan meningkatkan pengetahuan, keterampilan praktik, dan disposisi problem‑solving mahasiswa, asalkan disertai penyangga pedagogis dan validasi teknis berkelanjutan

Curiosity and digital communication of mildly autistic students with realistic mathematic learning approach using the Quizizz

Communication is a key factor in the exchange of emotions and information during interactions. In fact, in schools, most children with disabilities, such as autism, experience significant verbal communication difficulties. Only about 45% of students with autism can communicate verbally, while 55% still rely on nonverbal communication or assistance. Additionally, students with autism have limitations in expressing their emotions, making them highly prone to tantrums. This is one of the reasons why teachers in schools often hesitate to provide digital media to students with autism. Digital communication is also a form of communication skills, but it is based on Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to facilitate relationships and interactions with others. This study aims to explore how the curiosity and digital communication skills of students with autism can be enhanced through a realistic mathematics learning approach using Quizizz. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method, utilizing data collection techniques such as interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings, based on observational instruments conducted over three sessions, indicate that students' digital communication skills improved in each session, increasing from 44% to over 80%. Furthermore, the use of Quizizz also contributed to enhancing the verbal communication skills of students with autism. Through Quizizz, students with autism were able to practice self-expression, select answers, and even interact with their peers in game mode. This research provides valuable insights into how students with moderate autism respond to realistic and interactive mathematics learning while helping educators better understand their special needs and develop more effective teaching strategies
