Wisda Rahmadinur — 2026-07-15

The urgency of this study stems from the increasing need to understand the contribution of the family environment to the development of executive functions in primary school children, in line with social dynamics and 21st century learning challenges. This study aims to analyse the influence of parenting styles on children's executive functions from a neuroscience perspective, with a focus on assessing the varying influences of each parenting pattern. The research method used a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design. Data collection was conducted through executive function tests and statistical analysis using ANOVA tests in SPSS. The results showed that authoritative parenting styles had the most positive influence on the development of executive functions, while neglectful parenting styles produced the lowest scores, with statistically significant differences. These findings contribute to strengthening the literature on the correlation between parenting and neurocognitive functions while offering practical implications for families and educational institutions to implement adaptive and supportive parenting patterns. In conclusion, this study emphasises the importance of family and school collaboration in stimulating children's self-regulation abilities and recommends further research with a longitudinal design and broader contextual coverage.

Pengaruh Metode Eksperimen Terhadap Peningkatan Keterampilan Berpikir Kritis Siswa Pada Pembelajaran IPA Kelas 4 Di UPT SDN 12 III Koto Siturah

Ardian Palbi — 2026-07-15

This research is motivated by the low critical thinking skills of students in science learning due to monotonous teaching methods that do not actively engage students. Teachers tend to use lecture methods without providing students with opportunities to explore concepts through direct experience. Therefore, this study aims to determine the influence of the experimental method on improving the critical thinking skills of 4th-grade students in science learning. This study employs a quantitative descriptive research method with descriptive statistical analysis. The research subjects were 12 fourth-grade students at UPT SDN 12 III Koto Siturah. Data collection techniques involved pretest and posttest assessments measuring six aspects of critical thinking: interpretation, analysis, evaluation, inference, explanation, and self-regulation. The data were analyzed using frequency distribution, mean values, standard deviation, and range values. The research results show that the average critical thinking score increased from 59.1 in the pretest to 81.6 in the posttest. A total of 41,67 % of students achieved a high category, 41,67 % were in the moderate category, and 16.67 % remained in the low category after implementing the experimental method. These findings indicate that the experimental method contributes to improving students' critical thinking skills by allowing them to actively participate in the learning process, conduct experiments, and draw conclusions based on direct observation. Thus, the experimental method can be an effective alternative to enhance students' critical thinking skills in science learning.

Susi Ratna Sari — 2026-07-15

This study examine the process of moral value internalization through randai, a traditional Minangkabau performance art, as a strategy for cultural education among adolescents. Randai combines elements of dance, drama, music, and martial arts, and is rich in moral messages delivered through folk narratives. In the context of character education, randai has the potential to serve as a contextual, participatory, and reflective learning medium. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with data collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation at several art studios in West Sumatra. The research subjects include youth participants, randai instructors, and cultural figures. Findings indicate that values such as honesty, responsibility, cooperation, discipline, empathy, and spirituality are internalized naturally through direct engagement in practice and performance. The stories performed, rooted in Minangkabau folklore, convey moral lessons through symbols, characters, and conflicts relevant to adolescent life. Moreover, involvement in randai strengthens cultural identity and pride in ancestral heritage. The internalization process occurs holistically, integrating cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects, and is reinforced by social relationships within the artistic community. This study concludes that randai can be an effective local-culture-based strategy for character education, fostering adolescents to be morally grounded, culturally aware, and ethically responsible. These findings are relevant for integration into more inclusive and context-based educational systems
