The results showed that learning with mobile learning improves Arabic vocabulary in elementary schools. From the study, it can be concluded that mobile learning in improving Arabic vocabulary in elementary schools has proven effective and efficient. This is evidenced by the results of research that many elementary school students master increasing Arabic vocabulary. The limitation of this study is that researchers only research mobile learning, even though many other learning media can be used as alternatives in increasing Arabic vocabulary in elementary schools. Researchers hope that future researchers can conduct research related to increasing Arabic vocabulary by utilizing other learning media. This study also recommends further researchers to make research as a reference in improving Arabic vocabulary in elementary schools using mobile learning.

Karsono Karsono — 2024-11-26

The escalating environmental challenges, such as climate change and biodiversity loss, highlight the urgent need for education systems to foster environmental awareness and action in younger generations. This study investigates the integration of Ecological Art into the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project (P5) in two Indonesian primary schools in contrasting ecological settings: a mountainous region and a coastal area. Employing a qualitative approach, the research examines how local ecological contexts influence students’ creativity, environmental awareness, and collaboration. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and document analysis to evaluate the role of Ecological Art in addressing local and global ecological concerns. Findings demonstrate that using natural materials such as bamboo and clay in the mountainous school reinforced connections to cultural heritage and sustainability. Conversely, the coastal school’s focus on recycling plastic waste underscored the urgency of combating pollution. Ecological art engages students emotionally and socially, fostering environmental consciousness and creative problem-solving skills. However, limited resources and insufficient teacher training were identified as barriers to broader implementation. This research highlights the potential of Ecological Art as a pedagogical tool to enhance sustainability education through place-based learning and community engagement. Recommendations are provided for educators and policymakers to adapt curricula to local ecological and cultural contexts, contributing to the broader discourse on transformative education for sustainability.
