Analysis of the Level of Motivation to Learn Science Considered from 4 Main Indicators: SE, IE, CDL, and CCI

Mar'atus Sholihah — 2024-12-30

Learning motivation is one of the important factors that influence the success of the learning process, especially in Natural Science (IPA) subjects that require an in-depth understanding of concepts. This study aims to analyze the level of motivation to learn science in 5th-grade students at MIN 3 Lampung Utara. Learning motivation is measured based on four main indicators, namely Self-Efficacy (SE), Interest and Enjoyment (IE), Connection to Daily Life (CDL), and Cross-Cultural Interactions (CCI), which are adapted from Ginzburg & Barak's research (2023). Data were collected by distributing questionnaires directly to students, and the data were analyzed using the Rasch model. The results showed that the motivation to learn science at MIN 3 Lampung Utara was in the high category, with an average percentage of motivation of 71.67%. The results of the analysis using the Rasch model show person reliability of 0.78 and item reliability of 0.85, which indicates that the instrument used has good consistency in measuring science learning motivation. Furthermore, an in-depth analysis of the four indicators showed that overall student motivation was high. However, the Connection to Daily Life (CDL) indicator, which reflects students' ability to connect science material with daily life, showed the lowest score compared to other indicators. This finding has important implications for educators and curriculum developers to improve the relevance of science learning to students' daily lives. Therefore, further research is needed to explore the factors that influence the low connection between science materials and students' daily life contexts.

Iis Sujarwati — 2025-01-02

The study investigated the crucial role of supervisory feedback in academic supervision from students' perspectives in two distinct English-speaking university contexts: EFL and ESL. The research included the participation of 59 students and relied on a comprehensive methodology, utilizing a combination of questionnaires and semi-structured interviews for data collection. In analyzing the data, the study employed simple statistics to measure frequency and mean, while interview data were subjected to thematic analysis. The study's findings revealed that students in both Indonesian and Malaysian university contexts reported similar experiences concerning supervisory feedback. Specifically, their supervisors were found to provide comprehensive feedback and consistently engage in regular face-to-face meetings. However, the study identified a notable disparity in the preferred types of supervisory feedback between Indonesian and Malaysian students. Indonesian students preferred oral feedback, while Malaysian students leaned towards written feedback. These findings have important implications for academic supervision in Indonesian and Malaysian contexts. By shedding light on the differences in student feedback preferences, the study aims to increase awareness and provoke discussions about how supervisory feedback is administered. This, in turn, could potentially lead to positive changes in how academic supervision is conducted in these contexts. Ultimately, by exploring students’ perceptions of supervisory feedback, the study functions as a valuable resource that can inform the refinement of current feedback approaches to better align with the needs of students, thus enhancing the quality of academic supervision and the overall educational experience.

Achmad Rante Suparman — 2025-01-02

Chemical literacy consists of understanding chemical properties, theory, chemistry, and the nature of chemical phenomena. Proficiency in chemical literacy is fundamental in obtaining basic chemistry concepts, such as chemical interactions at the microscopic, macroscopic, symbolic, and process levels, and understanding and describing phenomena scientifically. Chemical literacy is critical in the learning process at school; therefore, teaching and learning should focus on chemical literacy. This study aims to determine whether teachers have taught chemical literacy in schools. This research is phenomenological qualitative research. Data collection techniques through natural conditions, primary data sources, in-depth interviews, documentation, and participatory observation techniques. The study participants were 24 chemistry teachers: eight on Papua Island representing eastern Indonesia, eight on Sulawesi Island representing central Indonesia, and eight on Java representing western Indonesia. Data were analyzed using the Bogdan and Biklen model. The results showed that the Teacher had yet to teach chemical literacy, although, in the learning process, several principles of chemical literacy had been implemented

Newman's Error Analysis (NEA) in Solving Computational Thinking Problems on Indefinite Integral Material

Lisa Lisa — 2025-01-21

The initial abilities of students in the Integral Calculus course reveal that many have not yet grasped the fundamental concepts of integration. Out of 20 students given integral problems, only 6 students (30%) were able to answer correctly, while 14 students (70%) made errors. These errors in the Calculus course need to be analyzed further to assist lecturers and students in identifying weaknesses in the learning process and address or at least reduce similar mistakes in the future. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach, with 20 second-semester students from the Mathematics Education program at IAIN Lhokseumawe as the research subjects. The findings indicate that students with very high and high computational thinking skills did not make errors compared to those with moderate, low, and low computational thinking skills. Students with moderate computational thinking skills tended to make errors in processing and answer writing. In contrast, students with low and very low computational thinking skills more frequently encountered transformation, processing, and answer-writing errors. Transformation errors occur when students make mistakes in calculations or during the process skill stage. These errors are often caused by students’ difficulty structuring solution steps, leading to misunderstanding the problems. Most students were also unable to reformulate the problems into forms suitable for the appropriate solution method, resulting in their inability to proceed with the calculations. Based on the error analysis using Newman’s Error Analysis (NEA) method, the most common types identified were transformation, processing, and answer-writing errors.

Muhammad Ali — 2025-02-12

Mental health is a condition where a person usually behaves and has no complaints either physically or mentally, and also the ability of humans to adapt to nature and other humans. However, the phenomenon in the reality of life is that there is much data on emotional disorders, behavioral disorders, depression, anxiety, and ending life by suicide among adolescents. Several factors cause mental health conditions in adolescents to experience disorders, including being influenced by the learning process and social interaction. This study partially and simultaneously analyzes adolescents' mental health regarding the learning process and social interaction. To achieve this goal, the approach used in this study is quantitative correlational for data collection using a questionnaire distributed to 109 adolescents who are still in MTs Ma'arif Balong. This study proves that the learning process and social interaction simultaneously affect adolescent mental health significantly, with an influence of 78.3%. While partially mental health is influenced by 47.2% of the learning process factor, and 59.3% is influenced by social interaction. Thus, parents and educators need to be models in a healthy mental life and create a conducive environment for the development of adolescent mental health.
