This study examines the effectiveness of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model in improving elementary school students’ learning outcomes by reviewing 15 national journal articles published between 2018 and 2024. The results show that PBL significantly enhances students’ abilities in cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains, with improvements ranging from 7.1% to 83.3%. PBL encourages students to think critically, participate more actively in learning, and develop problem-solving skills through real and relevant situations. However, its implementation still faces several challenges, such as limited teacher training, inadequate facilities, and difficulties in shifting from conventional methods to this new approach. Based on the analysis, three main factors determine the success of PBL: appropriate learning design, the teacher’s ability to guide the PBL process, and the availability of supporting learning resources. The most significant positive impacts are seen among fifth-grade students and in schools located in the Java region. In conclusion, PBL is highly effective when supported by proper teacher training and adaptation to field conditions. Therefore, further teacher development programs and additional research on the long-term effects of implementing this model are strongly recommended.

The implications emphasize the importance of developing interactive and practical learning media, along with the need for facility support and teacher training to optimally implement hands-on activities at MI. Thus, hands-on activity-based media can be an effective strategy to enhance the quality of education at the Madrasah Ibtidaiyah level.

Perkembangan zaman yang pesat telah memberikan pengaruh signifikan terhadap perilaku dan cara pandang generasi muda. Sayangnya, kemajuan tersebut tidak selalu dibarengi dengan peningkatan kualitas moral, yang justru menyebabkan terjadinya dekadensi moral seperti menurunnya empati, meningkatnya perilaku menyimpang, serta melemahnya nilai-nilai etika dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji peran pendidikan berbasis Ketuhanan sebagai solusi terhadap persoalan tersebut. Metode yang digunakan adalah deskriptif-kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi pustaka. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa pendidikan yang berlandaskan nilai-nilai Ketuhanan mampu memberikan arah pembentukan karakter yang utuh, tidak hanya mengembangkan kecerdasan intelektual, tetapi juga spiritual dan moral. Nilai-nilai Ketuhanan mendorong tumbuhnya rasa tanggung jawab, integritas, serta kesadaran sosial pada peserta didik. Oleh karena itu, integrasi nilai-nilai spiritual dalam kurikulum dan praktik pendidikan menjadi kunci dalam membentuk generasi yang berakhlak mulia dan siap menghadapi tantangan global secara bermartabat.

This study aims to analyze the nutritional status and dietary needs of students aged 7–10 years at SDN 3 Sesetan. Using a quantitative descriptive survey method, the research involved total sampling of all 86 second-grade students (40 boys and 46 girls). Data were collected using a stadiometer and weighing scale. Descriptive percentage analysis was used to interpret the data. The results showed that among the participants, 3 students (4%) were classified as severely obese, 2 students (2%) as mildly obese, 32 students (37%) had ideal nutritional status, and 49 students (57%) were underweight. The average daily calorie requirement was 1,935.50 kcal. Macronutrient analysis indicated an average daily requirement of 1,195.01 kcal from carbohydrates, 298.75 kcal from protein, and 497.92 kcal from fat. These findings reveal that a significant number of students have not yet reached optimal nutritional status. The variability in nutritional needs suggests the importance of attention and collaboration from both physical education (PJOK) teachers and parents to support students' health and development.  

Hakikat manusia dan pendidikan dalam konsep Islam memegang peranan penting dalam membentuk arah pembangunan sumber daya manusia yang berakhlak dan berkualitas menuju Indonesia Emas 2045. Permasalahan utama dalam pendidikan nasional saat ini adalah kurangnya integrasi nilai-nilai spiritual dan moral dalam sistem pendidikan, yang menyebabkan degradasi karakter peserta didik. Tujuan makalah ini adalah untuk mengkaji kembali konsep hakikat manusia dalam Islam serta relevansinya terhadap sistem pendidikan nasional dalam rangka menyongsong visi Indonesia Emas 2045. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi literatur terhadap sumber-sumber primer dan sekunder seperti Al-Qur’an, Hadis, serta karya ilmiah kontemporer mengenai pendidikan Islam dan pembangunan karakter. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa manusia dalam Islam dipandang sebagai makhluk yang memiliki dimensi jasmani, ruhani, akal, dan hati, yang semuanya harus dibina secara seimbang melalui pendidikan. Konsep pendidikan Islam menekankan pembentukan insan kamil-manusia sempurna secara intelektual, spiritual, dan moral. Dengan mengintegrasikan nilai-nilai ini dalam sistem pendidikan nasional, Indonesia berpotensi membangun generasi emas yang tidak hanya cerdas secara akademik, tetapi juga berakhlak mulia dan memiliki kesadaran tanggung jawab sosial. Oleh karena itu, transformasi pendidikan berbasis nilai-nilai Islam menjadi kunci strategis untuk mendukung pencapaian visi Indonesia Emas 2045.
