The study investigated necrophilia as a concealed but not an uncommon sexual deviation; contributing factors and the way forward among selected mortuary workers. This qualitative study used interpretive phenomenological design. Data were collected from ten (10) mortuary workers who both worked at privately and government/publicly owned morgues in Kwara-State, Nigeria. Participants were judgmentally selected for the purpose of this study by revealing their lived experiences. A semi-structured interview was used as a data collection method. Data analysis was done through content analysis technique. This study showed mental stress, substance use, avoidance of responsibilities and ritualism were the chief contributory factors to necrophilia. Among other recommendations, constant programmes that will cater for the mental health of mortuary workers should be enforced</p> TOSIN EMMANUEL AKINDUYO Copyright (c) https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/3943 PENGGUNAAN MEDIA BARANG BEKAS OLEH GURU DALAM PEMBELAJARAN MUSIK RITMIK SISWA KELAS X SMK NEGERI 3 SUKAWATI TAHUN AJARAN 2024 https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/3926 <table> <tbody> <tr> <td width="604"> <p><strong>A B S T R A K</strong></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="604"> <h1>Selain memberikan pengalaman bermusik kepada anak-anak, pengajaran dan pembelajaran musik di sekolah secara alami juga menumbuhkan kreativitas siswa.

However, many high school students still <br>have problems with grammar, conversation skills, and <br>pronunciation. ELSA Speak, an AI-based English learning <br>application, is an innovative solution to overcome this obstacle. <br>This research uses the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) <br>method to collect and analyze evidence comprehensively from <br>various sources. From the 18 articles analyzed show that ELSA <br>Speak is effective in improving these three aspects. This app <br>helps students identify and correct grammatical errors through <br>real time feedback and structured exercises. Through interactive <br>conversation exercises and simulations of real-life situations, <br>students can also increase their confidence in speaking English. <br>Besides that, ELSA Speak helps students improve their <br>pronunciation with speech recognition technology and accurate <br>feedback. This program offers several advantages over <br>traditional learning methods, including personalization, <br>accessibility, and engagement. Learning is tailored to the needs <br>and learning styles of each student. Accessibility allows students to learn anytime and anywhere via <br>smartphone and computer applications. Gamification and interactive elements make learning English more <br>interesting and fun.

The results of this research are expected to be beneficial both theoretically and practically. This study is an experimental research with a quasi-experimental design. Data collection techniques include observation, documentation, and testing. The data analysis technique used is the Independent Samples T test to determine if there is an effect of using the Problem Based Learning model on improving student learning outcomes. Based on the research results, the average scores obtained in the experimental class were 75.96 and in the control class were 65.08, as evidenced by the students' post-test results. The hypothesis testing resulted in a calculated t-value &gt; critical t-value, specifically 2.596 &gt; 1.673, with a significance level less than 0.05 (0.012). This indicates that the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted and the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected. Therefore, it can be concluded that there is a positive and significant influence of using the Problem Based Learning model on improving learning outcomes in Grade IV of SD Nurul Huda II Yapis for the academic year 2023/2024.</p> Ernawati - Copyright (c) https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/3854 DEVELOPMENT MEDIA LEARNING INTERACTIVE WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF GOOGLE SITES ON ARRAY MATERIALS AT SMK NEGERI 1 MUARO JAMBI https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/3848 <p>One of the main problems is the tendency to lack appropriate&nbsp;&nbsp; and&nbsp;&nbsp; comprehensive&nbsp;&nbsp; content&nbsp;&nbsp; in&nbsp;&nbsp; interactive learning media.

We aimed to develop a biology module specifically tailored for Asian Tapir conservation in Riau Province, Indonesia. The study involved 30 students divided into groups and key informants from the Riau Province Natural Resources Conservation Agency (BBKSDA) and World Wide Fund (WWF). Data collection employed interviews, pre-tests, and post-tests. The developed module underwent rigorous validation by subject matter/content experts (100% score), learning experts (93.49%), media experts (94.44%), and teachers (95.48%). Subsequent student trials resulted highly positive result, with an average score of 95.10% within the ”very good” category. The findings demonstrate the effectiveness of QR code-integrated biology module in enhancing student learning outcomes related to Asian Tapir conservation. The module holds significant potential for promoting environmental education and contributing to conservation efforts in the region.</p> Aydil Muszahira, Prima Wahyu Titisari, Suryanti, Tika Permatasari, Indry Chahyana Copyright (c) https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/3820 AN EVALUATION OF MERDEKA STUDENT EXCHANGE PROGRAM FOR EFL INBOUND STUDENTS https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/3819 <p>This study aims to evaluate the <em>Merdeka</em> Student Exchange Program for EFL inbound students at Universitas Muhammadiyah Prof. Dr. Hamka (UHAMKA). Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, this study explores the subjective experiences of exchange students while participating in the program. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with six inbound students from different universities in Indonesia. The findings revealed two main themes: challenges and benefits. Challenges included adjusting to a new environment, cultural differences, and communication styles. Students also reported several benefits, such as meeting new people from different backgrounds, exploring new places, and experiencing a different classroom environment with different teaching methods and facilities. Significantly, students experienced personal growth through an increased understanding of global diversity, intercultural skills, and the development of qualities such as critical thinking, adaptability, and openness to difference. These findings are consistent with the literature highlighting the personal development of student exchange programs. The <em>Merdeka</em> Student Exchange Program at UHAMKA was proven to be a valuable initiative in promoting academic mobility, enhancing students' skills and knowledge, and fostering personal development. This research confirms the importance of exchange program in preparing students to become qualified global citizens capable of navigating the complexities of an interconnected world.</p> Tri Wintolo Apoko, Elisabeth Arit, Salwa Naura Copyright (c) https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/3819 THE USE OF INTERACTIVE MULTIMEDIA ARTICULATE STORYLINE ON STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES IN HIGH SCHOOL HISTORY SUBJECTS https://ojs.mahadewa.ac.id/index.php/ijed/article/view/3816 <p>This study aims to examine the influence of interactive multimedia on student learning outcomes in history subjects at SMAN 22 Bandung using Articulate Storyline 3 called HISTONESIA. This research is motivated by the fact that students' attention to learning is high if learning uses gadgets such as the use of quizziz and kahoot applications.
