Saqjuddin Saqjuddin — 2026-02-28

Social Studies (Ilmu Pengetahuan Sosial/IPS) learning at the elementary school level plays a crucial role in developing students’ social awareness, sense of justice, and capacity to live harmoniously in diverse societies. However, instructional practices in elementary Social Studies classrooms often lack sensitivity to gender equality issues, which limits their contribution to promoting social inclusion. This study aims to systematically examine gender-responsive Social Studies learning strategies that can foster social inclusion in elementary education. This study employed a Systematic Literature Review by analyzing 25 national and international peer-reviewed journal articles published between 2020 and 2024. Data were collected from Google Scholar, ERIC, Scopus, and nationally accredited journals indexed in SINTA. The selected studies were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify key concepts, pedagogical principles, instructional strategies, and their implications for gender equality and social inclusion. The findings reveal that gender-responsive Social Studies instruction contributes significantly to more equitable, participatory, and inclusive classroom environments. Effective strategies include heterogeneous cooperative learning, problem-based learning grounded in social issues, reflective discussions, role-play activities, and the integration of gender-sensitive digital literacy. These approaches enhance equal student participation, strengthen social empathy, and reduce gender bias in classroom interactions. Overall, the study highlights gender responsiveness as a critical pedagogical foundation for promoting social inclusion in elementary schools and provides theoretical and practical insights for inclusive and gender-equitable Social Studies education

Nur Haizah Aopmonaim — 2026-02-28

This study aims to explore the integration of character education into Social Studies (IPS) learning as an effort to address students' moral crisis. The current moral crisis among students includes a low awareness of ethical values and responsible behavior in everyday life. In this context, character education is considered an effective approach to building a strong moral foundation through teaching values such as honesty, responsibility, discipline, and respect for others. This study used a qualitative method with a case study approach in several elementary schools. Data were collected through interviews with teachers and students, observations of the social studies learning process that integrated character education, and documentation. The results indicate that integrating character education into social studies learning can strengthen students' understanding of the importance of moral and ethical values in their social lives. Furthermore, this approach also helps students develop critical thinking skills and empathy for the social issues they face.

This study aims to determine the effect of using a solar system diorama as an instructional medium on the learning motivation of fifth-grade students at SD Negeri 92 Kendari. This research is a quantitative study with a quasi-experimental design using a non-equivalent control group design. The research subjects consisted of two classes: the experimental class, which received learning using the diorama medium, and the control class, which used conventional media in the form of pictures in the textbook. The data were collected using a learning motivation questionnaire developed based on the ARCS model (Attention, Relevance, Confidence, Satisfaction). The data were analyzed using prerequisite tests (normality and homogeneity), followed by hypothesis testing using the Independent Samples T-Test. The results showed a significant difference in students' learning motivation between the experimental class and the control class. The mean posttest score of the control class was 69.70, while the experimental class achieved a higher mean score of 87.69, with a significance value of 0.001 < 0.05. It can be concluded that the use of a solar system diorama as an instructional medium has a positive and significant influence on increasing students' learning motivation. The diorama helps students understand the material more concretely and engagingly, thus encouraging their active participation in the learning process
