This study describes the effectiveness of STEAM-based augmented reality (AR) learning media in natural science learning in elementary schools. This research used an experimental method. Six schools were involved as the subjects of this research, which was consisted of 3 elementary schools for experimental classes (60 students) and three elementary schools for control classes (60 students). The teachers involved were the 6th grader teachers. The data collection technique used 30 multiple choices questions for the students.The study results concluded that STEAM-based augmented reality effectively improved the quality of natural science learning in elementary schools. The t-test calculation results utilizing SPSS obtained t-count of 2.874 t-table of 1.980 (df-2= 122-2= 120). The normalized gain results showed a significant increase before and after using STEAM-based augmented reality media in natural science learning in elementary schools, which was 0.72 included in the high category.This research implies that research helps teachers optimize the use of media and teaching approaches. One of them is the use of STEAM with augmented reality media.

This study aims to describe the perceptions of SD Angkasa Colomadu teachers on online science learning during the pandemic. This research used descriptive qualitative research methods and a case study approach. The subjects of this study were three teachers of grades IV, V, and VI SD Angkasa Colomadu in the academic year 2020/2021. Data collection techniques used interviews and documentation. The data validity test techniques used the triangulation technique. Data analysis techniques used interactive analysis techniques Miles and Huberman consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusions. The results show that the teachers felt that learning sciences in the network was not optimal. Teachers do not optimally apply basic process skills. The teachers feel the limitation in the communication process.  They also have a restriction on directing the students to formulate hypotheses, conclude the material, guide experimental activities, attract students to ask questions, guide the measurement process, guide observation activities, classify, interpret, and predict processes due to media limitations. On the other hand, teachers feel that online learning makes teachers more innovative, creative, and able to take advantage of cellphones, computers, and the internet in learning activities, especially in learning science online during the pandemic period.

Kelimpahan bekatul di Dusun Demangan berpotensi sebagai peluang usaha yang menjanjikan jika dilakukan secara maksimal dan berkelanjutan. Namun, pemanfaatan potensi bekatul belum dapat dimanfaatkan secara maksimal. Masyarakat hanya memanfaatkan bekatul secara konvensional yaitu sebagai bahan campuran pakan ternak. Penelitian ditujukan untuk memberikan pelatihan dan pengembangan usaha masyarakat non produktif melalui UMKM berbasis bahan dasar bekatul. Kegiatan pengabdian yaitu pemberian materi tentang kandungan bekatul, cara pengolahan bekatul sebagai pakan ternak berkualitas dan makanan bergizi, pengemasan dan pemasaran produk. Pelatihan dilakukan di Kantor Desa Bakipadeyan, Baki, Sukoharjo. Teknik pengumpulan data penelitian dengan cara: (1) observasi potensi, 2) wawancara, 2) analisis data sekunder, dan 3) dokumentasi. Metode kegiatan pengabdian dilakukan dengan cara pemaparan materi oleh ahli, fact finding (analisis kebutuhan), discussion (diskusi antara pemateri), asking and answering (tanya jawab dan diskusi), dan recitation (resitasi atau pembagian tugas), practice and experiment (praktik dan eksperimen).

This study aims to analyze the psychomotor assessment levels based on Anderson and Krathwohl's taxonomy in the integrated thematic book for grade VI, theme 5, entrepreneurship. Methods: This content analysis research used a descriptive qualitative approach. The form of research data was a distribution of psychomotor assessments, categorized according to Anderson and Krathwohl’s taxonomy. The instrument validity used was the Gregory formula. Data validity employed was increased persistence and source triangulation. Sources were obtained from the teacher's book and coursebook. Data collection techniques utilized were document studies. The data analysis technique in this study applied an interactive analysis model from Miles and Huberman. Findings: The results showed that the distribution of psychomotor assessment levels at the imitation level (P1) was 23.33%, the manipulation level (P2) was 6.67%, the precision level (P3) was 36.67%, the articulation level (P4) was 30%, and the naturalization level (P5) was 3.33%. Conclusion: Therefore, it can be concluded that the precision level of psychomotor assessment is the most common because it follows the motor development of elementary school students who are expected to do things independently.
