uasi-experimental method with a quantitative approach. The sampling technique used was non-random purposive sampling, with two classes selected as samples, each consisting of 32 students. The data collection technique used in this study was an oral test instrument, designed using a non-equivalent control group design. The results showed that the average score of the experimental class was 45.31 in the pre-test and 67.81 in the post-test. Meanwhile, the control class scored an average of 44.84 in the pre-test and 46.56 in the post-test. The data were tested for normality and found to be normally distributed. The homogeneity test results showed a significance value of 0.308 > 0.05, indicating that the data are homogeneous or have the same variance. The findings revealed that the use of hand puppet media had a significant effect on students' speaking skills. The hypothesis testing using a Paired Sample T-Test showed a significance level of 0.000 < 0.05, indicating that the result is statistically significant. Therefore, the null hypothesis (H₀) is rejected, and the alternative hypothesis (H₁) is accepted, meaning there is a significant difference in students’ speaking skills before and after being taught using hand puppet media.

Abstract:This research is driven by the limited use of mathematics learning tools such as teaching modules in schools. At MA Al-Junaidiyah in Mandailing Natal Regency, learning still largely relies on textbooks based on the 2006…
curriculum, resulting in low student achievement in mathematics, particularly in the topic of algebraic function limits. This study aims to determine the validity, practicality, and effectiveness of a Mathematics Learning Module developed using the Missouri Mathematics Project (MMP) Model for the topic of Algebraic Function Limits for Grade XI students at MA Al-Junaidiyah. The research follows the Research and Development (R&D) methodology with the ADDIE development model comprising five stages: Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. Module validation involved experts in content, media, and language. The trial was conducted with 23 students of class XI-2. Two validators were assigned for each area. Results showed that the module achieved an overall validity score of 84.29%, categorized as valid. Its practicality reached 89.75%, categorized as practical. Student learning effectiveness reached 47%, showing the module is effective in improving learning outcomes. Therefore, the module is deemed feasible, engaging, and beneficial for enhancing student achievement.
Abstract:Nutrition health in early childhood plays an essential role in supporting optimal growth and development. This study aims to determine the nutritional status of children at RA DDI Majennang, Suppa District, Pinrang Regency,…
cy, and the factors influencing it. The research used a descriptive method with observation and interviews involving teachers and parents. The results showed that most children had good nutritional status, although some experienced undernutrition due to unbalanced diets and limited parental knowledge about nutrition. The main factors influencing children’s nutritional status included parents’ knowledge level, family income, and frequent consumption of fast food. These findings highlight the importance of providing nutrition education for parents and fostering cooperation between schools and families to improve the nutritional health of early childhood students at RA DDI Majennang.
Abstract:The purpose of this study is to ascertain how well SMP Kota Cirebon's speaking abilities may be enhanced by the ARKA approach. Quantitative research using a survey design is the methodology employed. Surveys and closed tests…
ests measuring the six aspects of speaking ability—pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, fluency, understanding, and tasks—were used to gather data. SPSS version 25 was used for data analysis. The findings show that SMP Kota Cirebon's speaking ability had been significantly affected by the ARKA approach. This is demonstrated by the coefficient of determination (R Square) value of 0.636, which indicates that the ARKA approach accounts for 63.6% of the diversity in students' speaking ability. In addition, the multiple linear regression model is statistically significant (Sig. = 0.000 < 0.05), according to the ANOVA test findings. According to the study's findings, junior high school students' speaking abilities can be enhanced by the ARKA technique, which is also a creative and relaxing alternative teaching strategy.
Abstract:This study aims to improve students' reading skills by implementing the phonics teaching method in the first grade of SDN 4 Geresik Tasikmalaya. In this study, we used the Classroom Action Research (CAR) Method following…
the Kemmis and McTaggart model, which consists of two cycles. Each cycle involves the stages of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. Data were collected through observation, interviews, pretest-posttest, and documentation. The results of the study showed that the implementation of the phonics method succeeded in improving the reading skills of grade 1 students, both in recognizing letters, spelling words, reading simple sentences, and understanding the contents of the reading. This can be seen from the increase in reading test scores and student activities during the learning process.
Abstract:This study aims to analyze the influence of religiosity and academic resilience on decreasing the level of academic anxiety of students of the Master of Islamic Education Program at the Sultan Syarif Kasim State Islamic…
University, Riau. Academic anxiety is a common psychological challenge experienced by postgraduate students. Religiosity and academic resilience are seen as protective factors that can help students manage academic stress in a healthier way. This study uses a quantitative method with data collection techniques in the form of questionnaires and documentation. The research sample consisted of 41 students from three semesters selected through purposive sampling. Data analysis was carried out using the independent sample t-test using SPSS version 25. The results showed that religiosity had a significant effect on academic anxiety with a significance value of 0.029, while academic resilience showed a stronger effect with a significance value of 0.000. Because the significance results of both variables are less than 0.05, the higher the religiosity and academic resilience of students, the lower their level of academic anxiety. This finding confirms that the integration of the values of religiosity and resilience is very important in supporting students' mental resilience. Strengthening religiosity and fostering academic resilience can be effective strategies to reduce academic anxiety in postgraduate higher education.

er is a learning disability where students face obstacles and difficulties in thinking. Slow learners can still follow the school curriculum, but they require slightly different treatment from regular students and additional time in the learning process. Before instruction begins, teachers must understand the characteristics and needs of children with special needs, particularly slow learners. This study aims to understand the characteristics and needs of slow learners in the learning process, as well as the strategies teachers can use in the learning process. The research method used is descriptive-qualitative, involving direct observation at SMP Negeri 22 Surakarta. By understanding the characteristics and needs of slow learners, teachers can adjust their teaching methods to suit the abilities of slow learners, thereby achieving good learning outcomes.
