Abstract

This study aimed to develop and evaluate Augmented Reality (AR)-based learning media integrated with Experiential Learning Theory (ELT) to improve students’ chronological thinking skills. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) method comprising needs analysis, design, development, expert validation, revision, and small- and large-group trials. The participants were Year 10 students (Phase E) at SMA Negeri 12 Padang. Data were collected through validation sheets, practicality questionnaires, and chronological thinking tests, then analysed using qualitative and quantitative descriptive techniques. The findings showed that the developed media met validity criteria based on assessments by subject-matter, media, and language experts, while also demonstrating high practicality for teachers and students. The media was also effective in improving students’ ability to sequence events, understand temporal relationships, and interpret historical timelines. Therefore, integrating AR with ELT offers an innovative approach to meaningful, experience-based history learning in classrooms.

Development of Augmented Reality-Based Learning Media to Enhance Students' Understanding of Diversity Values in Civic Education

This study aims to develop an Augmented Reality (AR)-based learning media for Civic Education and evaluate its effectiveness in improving seventh-grade students’ understanding of diversity within the context of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika (Unity in Diversity). The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach based on the Borg and Gall model, implemented up to the seventh stage (Operational Product Revision). Data were collected through learning achievement tests, questionnaires, and classroom observations. Qualitative data were analyzed descriptively, while quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, validity and reliability testing, a paired-samples t-test, and normalized gain (N-gain) analysis. The findings indicate that the development of the AR-based learning media was motivated by the abstract nature of diversity-related learning, which resulted in approximately 70% of students failing to achieve the minimum learning mastery standard. The developed media incorporates marker-based AR features, three-dimensional (3D) representations of Indonesia’s cultural diversity, interactive quizzes, and a glossary. The effectiveness evaluation demonstrated a substantial improvement in students’ learning achievement, with the mean score increasing from 35.19 on the pretest to 94.21 on the posttest. The paired-samples t-test further confirmed that the improvement was statistically significant (p < 0.001). In addition, students rated the media positively, with an overall acceptance score of 70.5%, indicating good usability and attractiveness. These findings suggest that the AR-based learning media is valid, practical, and effective in enhancing students’ understanding of diversity while supporting Civic Education learning grounded in the values of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika.

The Development of Interactive Problem-Solving-Based Learning Media Supported by Scratch to Improve Fifth-Grade Elementary Students’ Mathematical Critical Thinking Skills

This study aimed to (1) identify the characteristics of Scratch-assisted interactive learning media based on problem-solving principles that are valid, practical, and effective, and (2) examine students’ learning trajectories that describe their cognitive processes during learning activities using the developed media. This research employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the Plomp development model, which consists of five stages: preliminary investigation, design, realization/construction, testing, evaluation and revision, and implementation. The participants of this study were 15 fifth-grade students from SDTK Pelita Hati. Data were collected through expert validation sheets, teacher and student response questionnaires, mathematical critical thinking tests, and Hypothetical Learning Trajectory (HLT) analysis. The data were analyzed using both descriptive quantitative and qualitative methods. The results indicated that: (1) the Scratch-assisted problem-solving-based interactive learning media was highly valid, with an average validation score of 4.5 from both material and media experts; (2) the developed media was highly practical, as shown by mean response scores of 4.5 from teachers and 4.52 from students; (3) the learning media was effective in improving students’ mathematical critical thinking skills, as evidenced by an increase in the mean score from 39.67 on the pretest to 78.67 on the posttest, with an N-Gain value of 0.65 categorized as moderate improvement; and (4) students’ learning trajectories demonstrated progressive development in mathematical thinking, moving through stages of problem identification, strategy formulation, problem-solving execution, and critical conclusion drawing supported by Scratch-based learning activities. In conclusion, the Scratch-assisted interactive learning media based on problem-solving is feasible and effective for enhancing fifth-grade students’ mathematical critical thinking skills.
