Pengaruh Permainan Tradisional Galah Asin terhadap Peningkatan Kelincahan Siswa Kelas V SD

Liondi Pranklin Sitanggang, Janwar Frihasan Sinuraya, Aser Paul Nainggolan
Abstract: The low level of agility among elementary school students has become an important issue in Physical Education, Sports, and Health (PJOK) learning, particularly due to the limited variation in instructional methods and the&#8230; e decline in students’ physical activity in the digital era. This condition causes students to be less physically active, resulting in underdeveloped abilities in changing direction, body coordination, and movement balance. This study aimed to determine the effect of the traditional Galah Asin game on improving the agility of fifth-grade students at SD Swasta Advent Barusjulu. The research employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental method with a One-Group Pretest–Posttest Design. The research sample consisted of 37 students selected through the total sampling technique. Data were collected using a 4x10 meter shuttle run test to measure students’ agility levels before and after the treatment. The findings revealed that the average pretest score of 25.63 seconds decreased to 22.41 seconds in the posttest, indicating an improvement difference of 3.22 seconds. The paired sample t-test results showed that the calculated t-value of 9.87 was greater than the t-table value of 2.045 with a significance level of p < 0.000, indicating that the traditional Galah Asin game had a significant effect on improving students’ agility. The game was proven to enhance agility skills, active participation, learning motivation, and students’ social interaction during PJOK learning activities. The novelty of this study lies in the utilization of the traditional Galah Asin game as a local culture-based PJOK learning strategy that not only improves students’ agility but also supports cultural preservation and strengthens elementary school students’ physical activity in the modern era.

Analisis Manajemen Pendidik dan Tenaga Kependidikan dalam Meningkatkan Efektivitas Pembelajaran: Studi Kasus di SMP Medan

Astrida Joice Angelica Batubara, Judika Adventis Maleakhi Sihite, Imelda Situmorang
Abstract: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis manajemen pendidik dan tenaga kependidikan dalam mendukung efektivitas pembelajaran di salah satu SMP negeri di Kota Medan. Penelitian menggunakan metode studi kasus kualitatif&#8230; dengan pengumpulan data melalui wawancara dan dokumentasi. Temuan penelitian mengungkap adanya kesenjangan antara teori manajemen ideal dan praktik di lapangan, terutama dalam perencanaan karena sistem penempatan guru yang tersentralisasi sehingga membatasi otonomi sekolah. Hal ini mengakibatkan ketidaksesuaian (mismatch) di mana guru sering mengajar mata pelajaran di luar keahliannya, yang menyebabkan beban kerja berlebih. Meskipun menghadapi tantangan tersebut, sekolah menerapkan strategi adaptif, termasuk evaluasi kinerja berbasis teknologi (e-kinerja) dan budaya berbagi pengetahuan melalui lokakarya. Kepemimpinan kepala sekolah menjadi faktor krusial dalam mengatasi keterbatasan yang ada. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa meskipun kendala sistemik menghambat manajemen yang optimal, strategi internal yang proaktif dan kepemimpinan yang kuat menjadi kunci dalam menjaga kualitas pendidikan. Kebaruan penelitian ini terletak pada penggambaran empiris tentang bagaimana sebuah sekolah negeri beradaptasi dengan keterbatasan birokrasi untuk memastikan pembelajaran yang efektif.
