https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/4148
<p>The theory of constructivism, developed by Jean Piaget, emphasizes that knowledge is constructed through directexperience and social interaction. The implementation of constructivist principles in learning aims to create an environment that supports students' active exploration and deep understanding. This article examines various methods of applying Jean Piaget's theory in educational contexts, including problem-based learning, projects, hands-on experiments, and group discussions. The method used in this research is a literature review by reviewing several relevant literature studies related to constructivist learning. Where this learning was initially teacher-centered, constructivism has become student-centered to help them better understand abstract concepts. Although there are challenges in implementation such as teacher readiness and limited resources, the application of constructivism theory provides an opportunity to create a more meaningful and effective learning experience. The result of the literature review is that Jean Piaget's theory of constructivism in learning provides a strong framework for enhancing the learning experience, so by applying these principles, educators can create a more effective learning environment and holistically support students' cognitive development.</p>Erawati Ni Ketut

52The Role of Heads of Department (HODs) in instructional leadership towards English learner performance in Mogalakwena district
https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/4146
<p>This study investigates the instructional leadership of Heads of Department (HOD) in the teaching of English as well as the influence of this leadership on learner performance in schools. It focused on the HOD's views on their responsibilities in English teaching and learning in the classroom. English as a Language of Learning and Teaching (LOLT) demands that learners master the language in articulation and comprehension so that they do not struggle to understand other disciplines taught in English. Knowledge and competency in English will help learners later in their studies at a postsecondary institution. HODs serve as a link between the principal, teachers, and learners, and they play a critical role in ensuring that the English curriculum is covered and that students do well. Data was collected at five secondary schools in Limpopo Province Mogalakwena District using a qualitative study technique. The data was analysed thematically using semi-structured interviews. The primary results were that HODs had no formal preparation or training to lead the teaching and learning of English as a curricular subject. The study's suggestions include clear rules and awareness of what is required of HODs. There is a pressing need for training so that teachers can conduct the needed leadership effectively. Schools must prioritize reading culture, especially in secondary education. Students should engage in frequent reading across all subjects, not just English. This practice is crucial given the prevalence of English-taught subjects in the curriculum.</p>Mokgaetji Jermina Lebelo

52Perilaku Berbagi, Altruisme, Emp PERILAKU BERBAGI DALAM KONTEKS ALTRUISME SEBAGAI BENTUK STRATEGI MEMBANGUN EMPATI DAN SOLIDARITAS
https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/4145
<p><em>Sharing behavior is a key in altruism that serves as a strategy to strengthen empathy and solidarity within the community (Guttman et al., 2016). This study investigates the relationship between sharing behavior and altruism, and its effects on the development of empathy in the community. The literature review shows that the act of sharing not only strengthens social relationships but also increases understanding between individuals (Chiu et al., 2006). When individuals engage in sharing, they tend to be more caring towards others, and create a more cooperative environment (Schor & Fitzmaurice, 2015). Sharing behavior also plays a role in strengthening group solidarity, building trust and support among community members. Studies show that communities with a strong culture of sharing are better able to face various social and economic challenges (Carleton & Hsiang, 2016). However, barriers such as stigma and mistrust can hinder participation in sharing. Therefore, it is important to design interventions that can overcome these barriers and raise awareness of the importance of sharing as a form of altruism. Thus, it can be said that sharing behavior has an important role in building empathy and solidarity, and requires collaboration from various sectors to create a more inclusive and empathetic society (Tomasello et al., 2005)</em></p>Kadek Suhardita

52STUDENTS’ SELF-ESTEEM AND ITS INFLUENCE ON SPEAKING ABILITY AT SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN LAMPUNG
https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/4143
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This study focuses on the relationship and influence between students' self-esteem and students' English ability. Speaking is an important language skill, especially in a global setting where English is required for success in many areas. The study's goal is to evaluate if self-esteem has a substantial influence on students' speaking ability, as well as to uncover variables that contribute to poor self-esteem. Data were collected from 10th graders at a public school in South Lampung using questionnaires, speaking exams, and interviews. Using Pearson's correlation in SPSS (version 26), a sample of 36 students yielded a correlation value of 0.446, demonstrating a modest positive association between self-esteem and speaking ability. Peer comparison, dependence on external validation, emotional responses to failure, family dynamics, social support, and instructor evaluation are all factors that influence one's self-esteem. Addressing these issues is critical for increasing students' resilience and cultivating a more positive self-image, which can lead to improved speaking ability.</span></p>Eva Agustina Rahma

52Investigating challenges experienced by intermediate phase mathematics teachers in the implementation of formative assessments
https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/4095
<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> In this empirical paper, the authors discuss the challenges experienced by the intermediate phase teachers in the implementation of formative assessments in mathematics teaching and learning. Numerous reports regarding South African learners' poor performance in mathematics necessitated the research. Challenges associated with the language of teaching and learning (LoTL) are the primary contributors of this issue. The paper is grounded in the social constructivist theory which places emphasis on the notion that learning occurs when learners are provided with opportunities to apply the cultural psychological mechanisms they utilise, that include mathematical concepts, language, and diagrams and then taught the way to apply those mechanisms as to gain an in-depth comprehension of (some) phenomenon. In this quantitative paper, the questionnaire was administered to 151 respondents to elicit information on assessment challenges. The study found that the implementation of formative assessments poses a challenge to most of the in-service teachers. Considering these findings, the study recommends that subject advisors and policy makers provide ongoing professional development for teachers regarding the implementation of formative assessments. Additionally, employ the social constructivist approach while assessing learners, particularly for projects and investigations as forms of formative assessments.</p>Senzeni Sibanda

52Towards an online Teaching Practice Supervision model for Zimbabwe: Challenges and Possibilities in the context of the 4IR
https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/4063
<p>The 21<sup>st </sup>Century brought with it new technologies, new knowledge and the fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR). This caused fast changes to human life and the way people do work. A change in how people live and work prompts educational reforms to meet the rapid demands of changes in the workplace. Changes to the curriculum entail changes to the ways teachers are developed. Several frameworks for rethinking curriculum reforms have been debated. This study set out to establish the feasibility of an online Teaching Practice model for pre-service student teachers on teaching practice at one teacher education institution in Zimbabwe. Through the complexity theory, the study adopted a qualitative approach to gather data through teacher-educator interviews, student-teacher-focused group discussions and document analysis. The results indicate that online TP supervision would save time and financial resources. However, teacher education institutions in Zimbabwe are not yet ready for online TP supervision in terms of e-resources to support an online supervision model. The study suggests that for Zimbabwe teacher education to align itself with the demands of the 4IR era, the government through the Ministry of Higher and Tertiary Education, Innovation, Science and Technology Development and the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education should invest in e-resources to equip teacher education institutions and schools with necessary Information and Technology tools.</p>Shoorai KonyanaMotalenyane, Alfred Modise

52OPTIMIZING STUDENTS' CRITICAL THINKING AND NUMERACY LITERACY SKILLS THROUGH TASK-BASED LEARNING: AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY
https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/4049
<p>The suboptimal critical thinking and numeracy literacy skills among students, which can impact the quality of human resources, is the reason this research aims to examine the effects of task-based learning on critical thinking and numeracy literacy. The research method used is a quasi-experimental design with a nonequivalent posttest-only control group design. The focus of this study is on PGSD (Elementary School Teacher Education) students enrolled in numeracy literacy courses, with a total of 120 students divided into 4 classes. Data collection was conducted through tests. Data analysis included descriptive analysis and inferential statistical analysis, with inferential analysis performed using the MANOVA (Multivariate Analysis of Variance) method. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of the task-based learning method has a significant impact both simultaneously and partially on critical thinking and numeracy literacy skills. This is evident from the higher average scores observed in the experimental class that applied this method, compared to the control class that did not use it. Therefore, it is recommended that the task-based learning method be used as a solution to address the issues related to low critical thinking and numeracy literacy skills.</p>Bernadetha Rizki KaizeNi Nyoman RedianiSyahfitriani Br Ginting

https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/4040
<p>This interpretivist research paper discusses the teachers’ perceptions of learners’ human rights and their implications on classroom management. Since the abolishment of corporal punishment, most teachers believe that learners’ human rights are being given the most attention and due to this, classrooms are places of violence and teachers’ classroom management strategies are ineffective. This paper uses the lens of Critical Emancipatory Research (CER), which has a mission to critique and challenge, reform, and empower; it promotes social fairness and strengthens democratic ideals. This qualitative paper purposively held focus group interviews with 15 teachers in public secondary schools in the Lejweleputswa District. This paper answers two questions: What are teachers’ perceptions of learners’ human rights in school context? What implications do they have on classroom management? The data were analysed thematically. The findings demonstrate that teachers lack knowledge on human rights education. Considering the findings, this study suggests that teachers need urgent and continuous training on human rights education.</p>Ernest MpindoAwelani RambudaConstance Mphojane

52THE CHALLENGES HINDERING THE INTEGRATION OF PED-AGOGICAL CONTENT KNOWLEDGE WITH TECHNOLOGY TO SUPPORT IT TEACHERS
https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/4037
<p>This empirical paper discusses the challenges hindering the integration of technological pedagogical content knowledge in education. The integration of technology in schools is a challenge since teachers lack digital skills which greatly affect learners’ academic performance. The study employed Critical Emancipatory Research (CER) as a theory that advocates empowerment, social justice, and social inclusion for teachers who lack digital skills to integrate technology in the classroom. Data was generated using focus group discussion (FGD) through participatory action research (PAR). A total of 24 co-researchers from two groups consisting of 11 and 13 respectively engaged in FGD and responded to the two questions; what challenges hinder the integration of technological pedagogical content knowledge, and which strategies could assist in advancing the integration of technology in schools? The study findings indicated that teachers lack digital skills, educational resources, and a lack of computer labs and libraries. Based on the findings the study suggests that teachers be capacitated with digital skills through continuous professional development; schools are equipped with educational digital resources through sponsorships and the Department of Basic Education to advance schools by building computer labs and libraries to enhance the integration of technology as a strategy.</p>Matsolo MokhampanyaneJoseph Mofana Mokhampanyane
