This study examines the effectiveness of integrating the demonstration method with audio-visual interactive multimedia to enhance Grade III elementary students' proficiency in sunnah rawatib prayers. A quasi-experimental design was employed with an experimental group (n=21) receiving demonstration-assisted multimedia instruction and a control group (n=22) undergoing conventional teaching. The primary instrument was a validated worship practice observation checklist (CVR=1; Cronbach's Alpha=0.873). Data analysis included the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, N-Gain calculation, and the Mann-Whitney U test. The experimental group achieved a posttest mean of 85.95 (100% mastery rate) compared to the control group's 74.32 (77.27% mastery). The experimental group's N-Gain score of 0.7146 (high category) substantially exceeded the control group's 0.4423 (moderate category). The Mann-Whitney U test yielded an Asymp. Sig. (2-tailed) value of < .001, confirming a statistically significant difference between both groups. These findings affirm that demonstration enriched by interactive multimedia scaffolding effectively constructs students' procedural knowledge of worship rituals and optimally engages multiple sensory modalities at the primary level.

This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques including classroom observations, in-depth interviews with teachers, the school principal, and students, as well as supporting documentation such as lesson plans and activity photographs. The collected data were analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing, and their validity was ensured through triangulation techniques. The findings indicate that the demonstration method was implemented in a planned manner through stages of preparation, implementation, and simple evaluation. Teachers actively demonstrated the learning material, while students were directly involved through practical activities and discussions. The method proved effective in enhancing students’ understanding, practical skills, and the development of Islamic attitudes and behaviors. Despite challenges such as limited time, large class sizes, and inadequate facilities, the demonstration method shows significant potential to improve the quality of Aqidah Akhlak learning when managed optimally.

Desa Gununglurah, Kecamatan Cilongok, Kabupaten Banyumas, merupakan salah satu wilayah prioritas intervensi stunting. Permasalahan stunting masih berkaitan erat dengan praktik pemberian ASI dan MPASI yang belum optimal, terutama rendahnya pengetahuan ibu mengenai kandungan gizi dan zat bioaktif ASI, teknik penyimpanan ASI yang benar, serta pemberian MPASI sesuai usia dan kebutuhan gizi anak. ASI eksklusif selama enam bulan pertama kehidupan berperan penting dalam pencegahan stunting karena mengandung nutrisi lengkap dan faktor imunologis. Penyimpanan ASI yang tidak tepat dapat menurunkan kualitas gizi dan bioaktivitasnya, khususnya pada ibu bekerja. Setelah usia enam bulan, pemberian MPASI yang tidak memenuhi prinsip gizi seimbang, tekstur, dan kebersihan berpotensi menghambat pertumbuhan dan perkembangan anak. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan ibu terkait kandungan gizi dan zat bioaktif ASI, teknik penyimpanan ASI yang tepat, serta praktik pemberian MPASI yang benar. Metode pelaksanaan meliputi penyuluhan, diskusi interaktif, dan demonstrasi praktis. Evaluasi dilakukan menggunakan pre-test dan post-test untuk menilai peningkatan pengetahuan peserta. Kegiatan ini diharapkan dapat meningkatkan pola asuh gizi keluarga dan berkontribusi dalam upaya pencegahan stunting di Desa Gununglurah.

Fiqih learning at the Madrasah Ibtidaiyah level plays a crucial role in shaping students’ understanding of proper worship practices in accordance with Islamic law. However, in practice, fiqih instruction is often delivered through verbal and teacher-centered approaches, causing students to focus more on memorization rather than meaningful understanding and correct application. This study aims to examine the implementation of the demonstration method in fiqih learning as an effort to improve students’ understanding of worship procedures, particularly in practical materials such as ablution, prayer, and other daily acts of worship in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah. The demonstration method is considered appropriate because it allows students to directly observe the processes and stages of worship practices, making learning more concrete, contextual, and meaningful. The findings indicate that the application of the demonstration method effectively enhances both conceptual and practical understanding of students, increases learning motivation, and minimizes errors in performing worship. Students not only comprehend the sequences and recitations of worship but are also able to practice them correctly in accordance with fiqih principles. Therefore, the demonstration method can serve as an effective learning approach in fiqih instruction at the Madrasah Ibtidaiyah level to develop a comprehensive understanding of worship that integrates cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects.

Pregnancy is frequently associated with discomforts such as back pain, edema, and postural changes that may interfere with daily activities. Approximately 50–70% of pregnant women experience back pain due to hormonal changes and increased body weight. The use of a Birth Ball is considered one of the non-pharmacological alternatives to alleviate these complaints, as it improves pelvic muscle flexibility and supports postural correction. Proper education is essential to ensure appropriate and effective utilization. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of education using lecture and demonstration methods on the understanding of Birth Ball use among pregnant women. A pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-test post-test approach was applied. The sample consisted of 28 third-trimester pregnant women selected through purposive sampling. Findings revealed that the respondents’ understanding prior to education was 0%, which significantly increased to 96.43% following the intervention. Statistical analysis using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test yielded Z = -4.873 with p < 0.05, indicating a significant difference between pre- and post-education. It can be concluded that education delivered through lecture and demonstration methods is effective in enhancing pregnant women’s understanding of Birth Ball use.

According to Pathological Based Registration data in Indonesia, breast cancer ranks first with a relative frequency of 18.6%. In Central Java Province, the number of cancer cases has increased significantly over time. In 2010, there were 13,277 cases of cancer, and in 2015 this number increased to 18,954 cases. Of these, 6,899 cases were cervical cancer (35.13%), while 9,542 cases were breast cancer. One of the early detection methods of breast cancer that is easy to do independently is a breast self-examination or known as Sadari. The application of this Sadari method can help women to be more sensitive to changes in their breasts so that the risk of delays in cancer treatment can be minimized. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the demonstration method compared to video media in increasing adolescents' motivation to practice the Sadari method. The type of research used is quasi-experimental with pre-test and post-test design. The sampling technique was carried out by purposive sampling, with research instruments in the form of questionnaires consisting of items that are favorable and unfavorable. Data analysis was carried out using univariate and bivariate methods to determine the difference in motivation between the experimental groups. The results showed that in the group of the Sadari motivation experiment with video treatment, the significance value obtained was p = 0.000. The same was also shown in the group with the demonstration treatment, with a significance value of p = 0.000. Furthermore, the results of the Mann-Whitney test showed a significant value of 0.002. Since p < 0.05 (p = 0.002), it can be concluded that there is a significant difference in Sadari motivation between the video group and the demonstration. The average motivation score of the demonstration group (36.00) was higher than that of the video group (25.00), so the demonstration method was stated to be more effective in increasing Sadari's motivation.
