This study explores the potential of mobile educational applications to enhance student-centered inquiry-based learning (IBL) in secondary school classrooms. As traditional, teacher-centered pedagogies fail to adequately engage students in critical thinking and problem-solving, IBL offers a promising alternative that encourages active participation and deeper learning. The research investigates how mobile applications can support IBL by facilitating the inquiry process, such as data collection, hypothesis formulation, and collaboration. Through a quasi-experimental design involving secondary school students, the study compares the effectiveness of traditional teaching methods and mobile-assisted IBL. Results indicate that students using mobile applications showed significant improvements in critical thinking, engagement, and academic performance compared to those taught through traditional methods. Teachers and students both reported high satisfaction with mobile apps, particularly in terms of ease of use and educational value. The findings suggest that integrating mobile technologies into the classroom can create more interactive, accessible, and personalized learning experiences, fostering critical thinking and enhancing student outcomes. However, challenges related to infrastructure, teacher training, and digital literacy must be addressed to fully harness the potential of mobile-assisted inquiry-based learning.

This study investigates the impact of gamified learning platforms on the development of critical thinking and problem-solving skills among middle school students. With the increasing reliance on digital tools, fostering these essential skills has become a critical educational goal. Traditional teaching methods often fail to engage students effectively, which has led educators to explore innovative approaches such as gamified learning. The experimental design of this study involved two groups: an experimental group using gamified learning platforms and a control group following conventional teaching methods. Data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests measuring students' critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. Results indicated that the experimental group showed a significant improvement in both skills, with a 20-point increase in their scores, while the control group exhibited minimal progress. The findings highlight that gamified learning, which integrates game mechanics such as points, rewards, and leaderboards, enhances engagement and motivation, leading to improved cognitive skills. This study emphasizes the potential of gamification to revolutionize educational practices, suggesting that its integration can be a powerful tool to equip students with the necessary skills for the future.

This study aimed to investigate the physiological impact of academic stress, particularly examination stress, on biochemical indices among college students at the University of Tikrit. A total of 60 healthy students (30 in an experimental group and 30 in a control group) aged 19-21 years participated in this cross-sectional study. Salivary samples were collected during pre-examination and post-examination periods to measure levels of cortisol, malondialdehyde (MDA), glucose, and total antioxidant capacity (TAC). The results indicated significant increases in cortisol, MDA, and glucose levels in the pre-examination period compared to the post-examination period, suggesting heightened stress responses. Conversely, TAC levels were significantly higher in the post-examination period, indicating a potential recovery or response to oxidative stress. The findings support the hypothesis that academic examinations can induce significant physiological stress in students, reflected by changes in salivary biochemical markers. These stress responses may influence overall student health and academic performance, suggesting the need for strategies to manage stress among students during examinations.

Real Work Lecture (KKN) collaborated with Field Experience Practices (PPL) in increasing student potential through English-based learning. English is a world language used to communicate between countries. The ability to speak English must be owned by everyone, especially elementary school children. English-based learning in education is often implemented with less attractive media, so students' interest in learning English is quite low. This article examines the implementation of work programs that meet the needs of Anuban Jitjongrak school community in improving English language skills. Language and facility limitations are a challenge for students in implementing appropriate work programs. The service method carried out KKN-PPL debriefing, observation and interviews, implementation of work programs, and evaluation of activities. As for the target in the implementation of this KKN-PPL are students at Anuban Jitjongrak School.

The growing environmental crisis underscores the need for education systems to foster ecological responsibility among students. This study explores the potential for multifaith schools to cultivate environmental moral education through an interreligious pedagogical model. By integrating diverse religious teachings on ecology, the proposed model aims to promote shared moral values for environmental protection and sustainability. The research addresses the gap in existing environmental education, which often lacks an integrated approach that incorporates various religious perspectives. Through a qualitative research design, the study analyzes curricula, observes classroom practices, conducts interviews with educators, and evaluates existing environmental education frameworks in multifaith schools. The study identifies key strategies, including the incorporation of eco-ethics from different religious traditions, project-based learning, and interfaith dialogues, as effective means of fostering ecological responsibility. However, challenges such as balancing doctrinal differences, overcoming biases, and developing inclusive pedagogy remain. The study emphasizes the importance of designing educational content that respects all faiths and promotes intercultural dialogue, thereby encouraging a collective commitment to sustainability. The findings suggest that multifaith schools can serve as powerful platforms for environmental moral education, highlighting the value of integrating religious perspectives into sustainability education. The study concludes with recommendations for incorporating interreligious eco-ethics into curricula and teacher training programs and suggests future research on the long-term impact of interreligious environmental education and its applicability in diverse cultural contexts.
