Published: January 2024

The comprehension of overarching principles in texts for elementary and junior high school is deficient. The objective of this study is to create an instructional plan for understanding the notion of square and rectangular regions using GeoGebra as a tool. This study employs a didactical design research methodology with a descriptive-qualitative approach. The didactic design discussed in this study pertains to the acquisition of knowledge regarding square and rectangular regions in junior high school. The study was carried out in a public junior high school located in Sungai Raya Kubu Raya. The data sources consist of primary and secondary data. Primary data is collected firsthand from sources in the field, directly from the research subject. The data is derived from test results and observations of eighth-grade students and mathematics teachers, which serve as the foundation for the development of didactical design. The secondary data consists of a literature review, which is derived from relevant literature sources that provide support or relevance to this publication, such as earlier research. The findings revealed that students had difficulties mostly in identifying flat shapes, calculating the area of squares and rectangles, understanding the correlation between square and rectangular areas, and utilising the notion of square and rectangular areas to solve problems. This learning impediment is surmounted by implementing a didactic design. The resulting didactic design incorporates the utilisation of GeoGebra software to address and overcome students' learning hurdles in the context of square and rectangular materials, with a focus on problem-solving.

According to the findings, the solutions that are most likely to be chosen include introducing more interactive teaching methods as well as instituting a school-wide gamification system. However, some limitations of the SAW technique have been recognized. These shortcomings include the method's assumption of the independence of criteria and its sensitivity to weight assignments. The paper's authors concluded by giving suggestions for future research topics. These include the investigation of the impact different weight assignments have on the findings obtained by using the SAW approach, as well as the exploration of other decision-making systems. This research is an important contribution to the expanding body of knowledge on the application of decision-support systems in education and offers insightful information that can be helpful to teachers, school administrators, and policymakers.

Some experts say that critical thinking disposition is a predictor of a person's critical thinking skills. The objective of this study is to assess the extent to which students possess critical thinking disposition, in order to forecast their critical thinking abilities in the context of biology education. This study employed descriptive research using a qualitative methodology, involving 74 students from 2 classes as respondents. The instrument used is CTDBT which includes 7 indicators namely Truth-seeking, Open-mind, Analycity, Systematicity, Self-confidence, Inquisitiveness, and Maturity. The results show that students have critical thinking dispositions in the weak category for maturity indicators, medium categories for indicators of open-mindedness, analyticity, systematicity, and self-confidence, and high categories for indicators of truth-seeking and inquisitiveness. Students at the senior high school level generally have a high curiosity and are always eager to prove the truth of something, but they still seem rushed, vulnerable, and unstable, so they require the development of skills and maturity in making decisions to solve problems.

Learning in an independent curriculum involves independent conditions for fulfilling objectives, methods, materials, and learning evaluations for both teachers and students. The preliminary research students' conceptual understanding results and communication skills are still low. The solution to the problem is the integrated Problem Based Learning (PBL) model E-Student Worksheet (E-SWS) is the solution to this problem. This study aims to look at the effect of climate change E-SWS on global warming integrated with the PBL model to support the improvement of the process for conceptual understanding and skills for communicating with students. This research is included in the quasi-experimental research through the Posttest-Only control design. The research instrument for conceptual understanding is measured through a final test, and aspects of communication skills are measured through scientific work in the form of written ideas. Based on the data analysis of learning outcomes aspects of conceptual understanding and communication skills with successive averages of 88.19 and 80.20, the research work hypothesis is accepted. The research results implication is that teachers must construct students through integrated PBL models and E-SWS teaching materials. The research results reached the conclusion that student learning outcomes using the climate change E-SWS in integrated global warming PBL models were significantly higher than the teaching materials in schools.

The current study examined educational Decision Support Systems (DSS) using the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method. This study evaluated traditional face-to-face teaching, online learning, and blended learning based on four criteria: effectiveness, cost efficiency, accessibility, and technological requirements. Each criterion was weighted according to its importance. After standardizing and weighting the selection matrix, each instructional style was given a composite score for direct comparison. Blended learning outperformed the other methods, scoring 0.620. The findings suggest that integrating digital and traditional education could boost efficiency. However, the model was sensitive to weighting assignments and couldn't account for nuanced qualitative factors. Refined weight assignment, qualitative variables, and AI could improve schooling and other decision-making in the future. This study showed that DSS and SAW can help make educated education decisions.
