Covid-19 changes human habits, especially the learning process. Teaching and learning activities that are usually carried out offline now must be online. The research was motivated by the students' assumptions about mathematics which were considered difficult. Students feel overwhelmed when studying mathematics. When faced with math problems, students often don't have the confidence to solve it. The purpose of this study is to determine the increase in self-confidence of students who get online learning using the CPA approach during the Covid-19 pandemic, both in terms of overall, and Initial Mathematical Ability (IMA). This research is a quasi-experimental research with a non-equivalent control group design on Mathematics subjects on the topic of data collection and presentation in fifth-grade elementary schools. The sample consisted of 56 students at one of the elementary schools in Central Jakarta, Indonesia The research instrument used a self-confidence attitude scale given at the beginning before and after the treatment ended. The learning process is carried out online through the Whatsapp Group, Youtube, and Google Form. The research findings showed that online learning using the CPA approach can increase students' self-confidence better than conventional learning, both as a whole, and IMA. Thus, the CPA approach can be used as an alternative to increasing student self-confidence during the Covid-19 pandemic

Online learning is one of the learning systems that can be used as a means in the teaching and learning process that is carried out without direct or face-to-face meetings between educators and students. In online learning, teachers are required to be creative and innovative in applying suitable learning models, one of which is by applying peer tutoring learning models. This study aims to determine the increase in the ability to understand mathematical concepts of students who use peer tutor learning models. This type of research is a quasi-experimental research with a pre-test and post-test control group design. The sample in this study were students of class VIII C and VIII F of SMP Negeri 1 Suranenggala as many as 30 students. The instrument used is a test in the form of 10 description test questions which are arranged based on indicators of understanding the concept of the Pythagorean theorem material. The results showed that there was a significant increase in the ability to understand mathematical concepts of students who were given treatment using a peer tutor learning model than students who were not treated.

Establishing students’ pronunciation needs a promising instructional method. One of the teachers’ efforts to develop students’ pronunciation is applying the shadowing technique. The shadowing technique was able to facilitate students to practice pronunciation skills. This study was categorized with a quasi-experimental study with the non-equivalent control group design. The samples were taken randomly using a purposive random sampling. The samples consist of 70 students that were divided into two classes, namely the experimental and control classes. The data were collected through interview, multiple-choice test, and record. Here it used descriptive and T-test analysis to find the ways they learned and the results. Finally, the researchers considered that shadowing technique is very good to be applied by the teachers and lecturers in class. The most surprising aspect of the findings are; 1) the students were motivated as long as teaching and learning conducted; 2) their response mostly positive to the way they learned; 3) and they got significant change on their pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary. This change can be seen from their ability in expressing their ideas and 4) inferential statistic results; t-test was 4.077 and t-table was 2.021 with degree of freedom (df) 44 and the level of significance (0.05) in 95%.

Kodály-inspired pedagogy enables students to participate effectively in a music course by engaging in active musical interactions with folk songs and melodies. The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of Kodály-inspired pedagogy on recorder performance and attitudes toward music of secondary school students. A quasi-experimental design was used in the study. The experimental group was taught using Kodály-inspired pedagogy and the control group using the general music teaching methods for 9 weeks. A two-way mixed-design analysis of variance (ANOVA) and content analysis were used to analyze the data. A Recorder Performance Grading Key, music course attitude scale, and open-ended questions were used to collect the data. Consequently, the findings indicated that Kodály-inspired pedagogy had a significant effect on the students’ recorder performance but the researchers could not find a significant effect on students’ attitudes toward the music course. Moreover, students in the experimental group reported improvement in their recorder performance and attitudes toward music education. The researchers recommended including information about the implementation of Kodály-inspired pedagogy in music teacher textbooks, providing in-service training for teachers to enable them to use Kodály-inspired pedagogy.

Recently, game-based multimedia development has been increasing rapidly. Game-based multimedia is not only used for entertaining but also for teaching and learning process. Meanwhile, for the majority of elementary school students, numeracy learning is still considered as a difficult subject to be learned and has not attracted students’ interest because it still uses vertical methods. The objective of this research is to examine the implementation of game-based multimedia in learning horizontal numeracy. In this game-based multimedia, horizontal numeracy material is presented in the form of a game. Horizontal numeracy material begins with addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Game-based multimedia is implemented to 20 students in grade 3 elementary schools in Bandung, Indonesia. Subsequently, the way students learn the materials and their learning outcomes are explored after using this multimedia. The results show that the students can learn horizontal numeracy excitingly; moreover, they can easily understand the concept of horizontal numeracy quickly.

The misconception of the Solar System topic is still found in students so that it becomes one of the obstacles in the learning process. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of the implementation of Predict-Observe-Explain-Apply (POEA) learning to change the junior high school students' conception in the Solar System topic. Quasi-experimental research with the non-equivalent control group design was conducted in one of the private junior high schools in Bandung city. Samples were selected based on the test of the average significance of the pretest score of the population. Furthermore, 30 students of the experimental class and 32 students of control class were selected. The research instrument, which consisted of 15 four-tier diagnostic test questions about Solar System were used to collect data before and after treatment. The tests were analyzed quantitatively by using the Mann-Whitney statistical test to determine the significance of the difference in the acceptable conception changes (Acceptable Change) of students in the experimental class with changes in the conception of students in the control class. The results of the research show that the implementation of POEA learning is significantly more effective than POE learning in changing the conception of Solar System topic. The findings of this study can be an alternative for junior high school teachers in planning learning about the Solar System, especially in an effort to change students' misconception about the Solar System.
