Effects of Structured Physical Activity on Holistic Development of Elementary School Children: A Systematic Review Based on Physical Literacy Framework
type: item
description: Elementary school years represent a critical period for establishing foundations of health, motor competence, and socio-emotional skills. Despite strong evidence supporting the multidimensional benefits of structured physical activity, sedentary lifestyles and excessive screen time among Indonesian children raise serious concerns. Objective: This systematic review aimed to synthesize contemporary empirical evidence regarding the impact of structured physical activity on the physical, cognitive, and psychosocial development of elementary school children through the Physical Literacy (PL) framework. Method: This review followed the PRISMA 2020 protocol across six electronic databases for studies published between January 2018 and July 2026. Inclusion criteria comprised experimental, quasi-experimental, or randomized controlled trial designs; populations aged 6–12 years; structured physical activity interventions; and reporting at least one outcome in physical, cognitive, or psychosocial domains. Methodological quality was assessed using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT) version 2018. Results: Forty-two studies met the inclusion criteria. Large effect sizes for motor competence (Hedges' g = 0.69–1.53) and moderate effect sizes for executive function and academic achievement (d = 0.40–0.65) were drawn from previously published meta-analyses of individual intervention studies rather than computed de novo, as no meta-analysis was performed in this review. The included studies further reported positive associations with emotional regulation, self-esteem, and social skills. High heterogeneity indicated substantial variation in intervention design and implementation context. Conclusion: The included evidence, synthesized narratively and appraised using the MMAT, generally indicates positive associations between structured physical activity and holistic child development, with the strongest support for motor competence outcomes. Policy recommendations include adopting P…

Implementation Of Nationalist Character Education in Civic Education at an Islamic Qur’ani Elementary School
type: item
description: The current of globalization threatens the national identity of the younger generation, yet research on the implementation of national character education at the micro-level of elementary schools remains limited. This study aims to describe the implementation of nationalism character education through Civics Education in the fifth grade of an Islamic Qur'anic elementary school in East Lampung and to examine the process of internalizing nationalist values among students. A qualitative approach utilizing a case study design was employed. Data collection took place from April to May 2026 through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The informants consisted of four individuals, namely the principal, the Civics Education teacher, and two fifth-grade students selected based on the criteria of highest academic and non-academic achievements. Data analysis was conducted using the Miles and Huberman interactive model. The findings indicate that the implementation proceeds contextually and is integrated through teacher role-modeling and the habituation of discipline, responsibility, cooperation, and appreciation of differences. The internalization of values in students is reflected in their active participation and compliance with rules, despite facing challenges regarding time constraints and external environmental influences outside of school. This study offers an empirical model for the implementation of nationalism character based on the interaction of key actors at the elementary school level, and identifies the necessity for school-family synergy and a reflective pedagogical approach.

The Relationship between TPACK Competence and Classroom Teaching Skills among Prospective Teachers in the Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Teacher Education Program
type: item
description: Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) competency is an important skill that prospective teachers must possess in order to integrate technology, pedagogy, and learning content, especially in today's digital age. This study aims to: (1) determine the level of TPACK competency of prospective PGMI teachers at IAIN Sorong, (2) observe students' teaching skills through microteaching practice, and (3) analyze the relationship between TPACK competency and their teaching skills. This study used a quantitative approach with a correlational method. The research subjects were 6th semester PGMI students at IAIN Sorong who were participating in microteaching activities. Data were collected through structured observation sheets and analyzed using Pearson's correlation technique. The results showed that: (1) there was a strong and significant relationship between TPACK competence and students' teaching skills, with a value of r = 0.703 and significance p = 0.002, (2) the highest mastery was seen in the aspects of Content Knowledge (CK) and Technological Knowledge (TK), while mastery in the aspects of TPK and full integration of TPACK was still low, (3) the main obstacles were students' varying learning motivation and lack of field practice experience. Overall, the higher the mastery of TPACK, the better the teaching skills of PGMI students. This study emphasizes the importance of integrating TPACK into the teacher education curriculum.

Deep Learning and the Love-Based Curriculum in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah: Implications for the Implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum
type: item
description: The emergence of the Deep Learning approach and the Love-Based Curriculum (Kurikulum Berbasis Cinta/KBC) amid the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum has raised fundamental questions among madrasah educators regarding whether these approaches function as replacements for, or complements to, the existing curriculum. This study aims to examine the conceptual role and interrelationship among Deep Learning, the Love-Based Curriculum, and the Merdeka Curriculum in the context of Madrasah Ibtidaiyah education. The study employs a qualitative library research method through a systematic review of literature retrieved from the Google Scholar database, including national and international journal articles and relevant educational policy documents published between 2021 and 2026. The findings indicate that Deep Learning and the Love-Based Curriculum are not substitutes for the Merdeka Curriculum; rather, the three form a synergistic layered curriculum model. The Merdeka Curriculum functions as the national policy foundation that determines educational direction and learning outcomes, Deep Learning serves as an operational pedagogical approach that promotes reflective, meaningful, and engaging learning processes, while the Love-Based Curriculum functions as a value framework and distinctive ethos of madrasah education that cultivates the concept of Panca Cinta, encompassing spiritual, intellectual, social, ecological, and national dimensions. These findings suggest that teachers in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah should integrate all three approaches into a holistic learning ecosystem rather than treating them as separate or alternative options.

Students' Misconceptions about Force Concepts and Intervention Strategies in Elementary School
type: item
description: Natural Science learning in elementary schools is intended to develop students’ accurate understanding of scientific concepts. However, misconceptions regarding the concept of force are still commonly encountered. This study aims to examine the forms of students’ misconceptions, identify the factors contributing to them, and describe the strategies employed to address these issues at SDN Sukolilo II Tuban. A qualitative approach with a descriptive case study design was adopted. The participants consisted of one fourth-grade teacher and 31 fourth-grade students. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that force concepts were taught using a contextual approach by relating them to students’ everyday experiences. Nevertheless, several misconceptions persisted, including the belief that force only involves pushing or pulling moving objects and limited understanding of how force affects an object’s motion and shape. These misconceptions were associated with the oversimplified and incomplete presentation of concepts in the Student Worksheets. To overcome these problems, teachers reinforced the material by utilizing various learning resources, providing more contextual explanations, and incorporating real-life examples, thereby helping students develop a more accurate understanding of scientific concepts.
