In the digital era, teachers are required to be creative in integrating technology with learning to make the learning process more engaging and effective. This study explores how the Wordwall application can bridge the gap between Islamic Religious Education (PAI) material, which is rich in moral values, and Physical Education, Sports, and Health (PJOK), which emphasizes the importance of physical health. This application provides interactive games that allow students to learn while playing, so that they not only understand religious teachings and physical skills but also experience a fun learning experience. Through various types of games such as puzzles and quizzes, students can more easily remember the lesson material and apply that knowledge in their daily lives. In addition, the use of Wordwall encourages active student participation in each learning session. This strengthens their engagement in the learning process and increases motivation to learn. The research findings show that Wordwall can transform the classroom atmosphere to be more lively, interactive, and collaborative, creating an environment that supports active and enjoyable learning for students.

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of play-based methods in Physical Education, Sports, and Health (PJOK) learning for sixth-grade students at Pelangi Elementary School. The background of this study is the decline in movement motivation in upper-grade students due to excessive focus on academic workload. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques in the form of participatory observation and in-depth interviews with key informants. The results of the study indicate that the integration of structured games in the Lesson Implementation Plan (RPP) can improve motor coordination and students' social values. In addition, modifications to game tools and rules provide creative solutions to overcome the limitations of existing facilities. The conclusion of the study confirms that the play-based approach functions not only as a recreational activity but also as an effective formal instructional method to achieve curriculum targets holistically, supporting students' physical and social development simultaneously. This approach is expected to be implemented more widely in schools to improve the quality of PJOK learning.

This study aims to explore the perspective of Physical Education, Sports, and Health (PJOK) teachers and classroom teachers regarding the form and effectiveness of cooperation in the implementation of the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project (P5) with the topic of Sustainable Lifestyle at Pajajaran State Elementary School. The implementation of the Independent Curriculum emphasizes the importance of collaborative, comprehensive, and contextual learning, where synergy between teachers is the main foundation for the success of thematic projects. This collaboration is essential to ensure that learning not only develops cognitive aspects, but also forms character and environmental awareness in students. The research method used is a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through semi-structured interviews, direct observation during the learning process, and document analysis such as learning implementation plans and P5 project reports. The data was analyzed with the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing to obtain a comprehensive picture of the teacher's collaboration strategy. PJOK teachers play a role in field practice, such as teaching physical activities that prioritize the principles of sustainability and healthy living habits. Meanwhile, classroom teachers emphasized strengthening conceptual material on sustainability through discussions, literacy, and creative projects. The results of the study show that the synergy between PJOK teachers and classroom teachers creates more effective and meaningful learning. Challenges that arise include limited time for coordination, differences in teaching styles, and lack of a comprehensive understanding of sustainability concepts. However, motivation, commitment, and good communication are key factors to overcome these obstacles. This research emphasizes that teacher collaboration is crucial in supporting the successful implementation of the Independent Curriculum, while instilling the values of environmental care, independence, and social responsibility in students.

Inclusive education plays a crucial role in achieving equal access and improving the quality of education for all students, including students with special needs. In the context of Physical Education, Sports, and Health (PJOK) learning, the implementation of inclusive education still faces significant challenges, both in terms of teaching strategies, teacher skills, and available supporting facilities and infrastructure. This study aims to describe the perceptions of PJOK teachers and classroom teachers regarding the implementation of inclusive learning for students with special needs in PJOK activities at the elementary school level. The method used in this study is a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collection techniques including semi-structured interviews and documentation. The research subjects consisted of PJOK teachers and classroom teachers who teach at SDN 2 Gobras. The results show that the teachers have a good understanding of the importance of creating a friendly, adaptive, and enjoyable learning environment for students with special needs. The teachers make adjustments in learning activities through modifying tools, implementing small group strategies, providing appropriate motivation, and close collaboration with homeroom teachers and parents. However, limitations in the training received and the support of existing facilities remain significant obstacles. The findings of this study provide important implications regarding the need for ongoing training and strengthened collaboration between teachers to support the creation of more effective and sustainable inclusive education. Therefore, this research is expected to make a positive contribution to the development of inclusive education in elementary schools and raise awareness of the importance of supporting students with special needs in the learning process.

Parenting styles are an essential aspect of the development of school-age children, as children tend to adopt and implement behaviors they observe and experience. Therefore, parenting styles play a crucial role and are associated with various aspects of children's growth. One of the most closely related factors to parenting styles is motivation.  This study aims to examine the relationship between parenting styles and students' active engagement in PJOK learning, the relationship between students' motivation and their active engagement in PJOK learning, and the extent to which parenting styles and motivation influence students' active engagement in PJOK learning at SDN 2 Selur. This research employs a correlational design with an ex post facto approach. The population in this study consists of all fifth-grade students. Data on parenting styles, motivation, and students' active engagement were collected through questionnaires. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive analysis and multiple correlation analysis, with the Pearson product-moment correlation applied as the statistical technique. The results of the study indicate a positive and significant relationship between parenting styles and students' active engagement in PJOK learning, with a correlation coefficient of 0.320. Furthermore, a positive and significant relationship was found between motivation and students' active engagement in PJOK learning, with a correlation coefficient of 0.555. Based on the data analysis, parenting styles and motivation collectively influence students' active engagement by 32.7%..    

Education is a conscious and planned effort aimed at developing students' potential to achieve a better life. In the context of physical education, quality learning plays an important role in increasing students' interest and creativity. Physical activity, as taught in PJOK subjects, is very important for students' physical-motor development, especially in junior high school age children. However, observations show that the gross motor development of 7th grade students is not optimal and teachers are less innovative in the use of media and games. Traditional games, such as black and green, can be a solution to improve students' gross motor skills while creating a fun learning atmosphere. This study aims to explore the application of the black and green game in improving the gross motor skills of 13-year-old students, with the hope of making a positive contribution to PJOK learning.

One way to increase children's physical activity is through learning Physical Education, Sports and Health (PJOK) at school. Considering the characteristics of junior high school students aged 12-15 years who tend to like to play, this approach can be very effective. Children generally enjoy fun activities such as playing, which can motivate them to participate in physical activities and keep their bodies fit and healthy. This research used the Classroom Action Research method which was carried out in two cycles, with each cycle consisting of two meetings regarding physical fitness material. Data was collected through observation, documentation and questionnaires to evaluate students' opinions about the learning carried out. The research results showed that the play approach proved to be very effective in increasing PJOK learning motivation in class IX of SMP Negeri 28 Surabaya. Therefore, it is important to develop innovation in PJOK learning so that students are more interested and involved in this activity.
