However, in actuality, students at SMA Negeri 14 Medan encounter challenges in their history learning endeavours. Researchers conducted a study to enhance student learning outcomes in Indonesian History by focussing on the topic of Early Challenges of Independence during classroom instruction. The research sample included of 36 students from classroom XI-10 at SMA Negeri 14 Medan. The data collection method employed was the administration of a written test in the form of multiple-choice questions, which participants responded using the Wordwall web platform. The data analysis methodology employed in this study involved the utilisation of percentage analysis, namely by comparing the original conditions with the outcomes obtained in each iteration. The research findings indicate that implementing the Project Based Learning (PjBL) instructional model with the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) approach in the Indonesian History curriculum, specifically focussing on the topic of Early Challenges of Independence, leads to enhanced student learning outcomes. The conclusion of this study confirms that the action hypothesis has been addressed. Specifically, the implementation of the Project Based Learning (PjBL) instructional model with the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) approach has resulted in improved student learning outcomes in the field of Indonesian History. The subject of XI- 10 is being taught in Class XI at SMA Negeri 14 Medan during the academic year 2024/2025.</p> 2024-09-06T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 ALACRITY : Journal of Education https://lpppipublishing.com/index.php/alacrity/article/view/417 Analysis of Learning Styles of Students in Class VI A SD Bukit Aksara in Learning IPAS 2024-09-02T06:24:32+00:00 Nurma Andikawati nurmaandikawati674@gmail.com Rasiman Rasiman nurmaandikawati674@gmail.com Agnita Siska Pramashdyahsari nurmaandikawati674@gmail.com Veronika S Nurhidayati nurmaandikawati674@gmail.com <p>Learning styles in students are considered very important for the learning process and learning outcomes, besides that teachers also have an important role in implementing the learning process in students who have been adapted to the learning styles of students. This study aims to: (1) Describe the learning styles of class VIA students in IPAS subjects (2) Describe the efforts made by teachers in the learning styles of students in IPAS lessons. This type of research is descriptive qualitative research, where in collecting data using three techniques, namely observation, interviews, and documentation. During the interview, the researcher used a structured interview, where several indicators of questions about learning styles were provided based on the learning style questionnaire. Data validity used, namely source triangulation and technique triangulation. This data analysis uses the Miles &amp; Huberman model including data collection, data reductions, data display, conclusions. In this study there were 20 students who were interviewed and observed, and the results obtained from these 20 students, 10 of them had a visual learning style style covering 50% of the number of students in class VIA, 6 of them had an auditory learning style covering 30% of the number of students in class VIA, and 4 students had a kinesthetic learning style covering 20% of the number of students in class VIA. It can be seen that the visual learning style dominates with the most students compared to students in other learning styles. Based on these results, it states that the way of learning that each student or each individual has will certainly be very different.</p> 2024-09-06T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 ALACRITY : Journal of Education https://lpppipublishing.com/index.php/alacrity/article/view/401 Improving Student Learning Outcomes in History Lessons Through a Jigsaw Type Cooperative Learning Model in CLASS X-2 SMA Negeri 2 Medan 2024-08-25T13:06:08+00:00 Cut Ainun Pudi cutainunpudi@gmail.com Pulung Sumantri pulungsumantri@yahoo.com Siti Aisyah sittiaisyah79@guru.sma.belajar.id <p>This research is a type of PTK research, by implementing a jigsaw type cooperative learning model in class X-2 of SMA Negeri 2 Medan, the aim of this research is to improve student learning outcomes.

This article explores the application of gamification in educational settings, particularly in primary schools. In today’s digital age, gamification is increasingly popular and widely applied in various sectors, including education. Gamification Refers to the application of game elements and mechanisms in non-game contexts. With great potential to improve student learning outcomes, gamification focuses specifically on motivation and engagement. Carefully designed game elements can engage students in the subject matter, encourage them to actively learn, and develop 21st century skills such as creativity, problem solving, and collaboration. However, the application of gamification must be done carefully, considering various factors such as learning objectives, student characteristics, and resource availability. Despite the challenges, gamification has great potential to change the way we interact with various systems and services. With careful planning and proper implementation, gamification can be an effective tool to improve motivation, engagement, and learning outcomes. It is important to remember that gamification is not a solution to all problems in education; it should be used as an additional tool that supports quality learning. Through case studies in several elementary schools, this article shows that the use of gamification elements such as points, badges, and leaderboards can create a more interactive and enjoyable learning environment.</p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> 2024-09-15T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 ALACRITY : Journal of Education https://lpppipublishing.com/index.php/alacrity/article/view/418 Analisis Butir Soal pada Mata Pelajaran Pendidikan Agama Islam di Kelas V SDN 3 Tanjung Pura 2024-09-06T04:49:26+00:00 Desty Ayu desty5244@gmail.com Realita Realita 200201060@student.ar-raniry.ac.id <p>Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kualitas soal ujian semester genap mata pelajaran PAI kelas 5 di SDN 3 Tanjung Pura dari segi validitas, reliabilitas, tingkat kesukaran, daya pembeda, dan efektivitas pengecoh.

Civic education lessons have an important role in building environmental awareness by introducing the concepts of citizens' rights and obligations and environmental protection. Although there are challenges in integrating environmental education, there are opportunities to develop environmentally caring characters in students. Therefore, it is important to instill environmental awareness from an early age in everyday life, both at school and outside school.</p> 2024-11-15T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 ALACRITY : Journal of Education https://lpppipublishing.com/index.php/alacrity/article/view/481 Pengembangan Media Pembelajaran Kuis Interaktif pada Materi Bahasa Indonesia Kosakata Kelas Tiga di Sekolah Dasar 2024-11-16T05:39:05+00:00 Amanda Repalena ijessmjournal2020@gmail.com Yusni Arni Amandarepalena@gmail.com Ranti Ranti Amandarepalena@gmail.com Lala Melinda Amandarepalena@gmail.com <p>Pembelajaran kosakata bahasa Indonesia di sekolah dasar sangat penting untuk memperkuat keterampilan komunikasi siswa.

The approach used in this research is Classroom Action Research (PTK) with a cycle model consisting of four stages: planning, implementation, observation and reflection. The subjects of this research were first grade elementary school students who had difficulty recognizing letters, reading words and simple sentences. Big Book media was chosen because of its large size and attractive illustrations, which are expected to motivate students in the process of learning to read. The research results show that the use of the Big Book significantly increases students' reading interest and ability. This can be seen from the increase in students' reading test scores in each cycle. The use of the Big Book also encourages active involvement of students and makes it easier for them to understand reading. Based on these results, Big Book media is effectively used as a means of learning to read for grade I elementary school students.</p> 2024-11-16T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 ALACRITY : Journal of Education
