The purpose of this study was to test the effects of healthy life practice (HLP) education on reported health behaviors, including health promotion, disease prevention, and safety among fourth-grade elementary school students. A quasi-experimental, pretest/posttest design was used. The 101 recruited participants from two schools were assigned to the intervention group ( n = 51) that received 10 health education sessions and the control group ( n = 50) that did not receive the intervention. Significant differences in health behaviors were observed between the two groups ( t = 2.563, p = .012), specifically for disease prevention ( t = 2.178, p = .032) and safety ( t = 2.711, p = .008). However, no significant between-group differences were observed in health promotion ( t = .270, p = .788). Educational interventions aimed at changing HLP-related health behaviors may be effective for elementary schoolchildren.

<p>The purpose of this research are: (1). To find out whether there is an influence "Teaching Games for Understanding Models" in physical Education on the character of the responsibility of fourth grade elementary school students. (2). To find out how much influence the "Teaching Games for Understanding Model" at physical education learning on understanding the Responsibility Attitude of fourth grade children in elementary school. This type of research uses the quasi experiment method in the form of pretest-posttes non equivalent control-group design.<br />The research subjects used in this study were fourth grade students of Klumprit 3 Mojolaban Elementary School. Sukoharjo The size of the study subjects was 27 students. The technique of collecting data is using questionnaire responsibility that has been developed from Don Hellison (1995) through a valid and reliable question instrument with Cronbach's Alpha: 0.921. The data analysis technique used in this study used the Wilcoxon difference test to see the gain score of the pretest and posttest. The results of data analysis can be concluded that: (1). There is a significant effect between the Application of the TGfU Learning Model to the Responsibility of 4th grade elementary school students. It is obtained that the calculated Z value for the TGfU Learning Model is -4,543 with a significance value of 0,000 because the significance value is lower than 0.05, the null hypothesis number is rejected, from the research conducted, the hypothesis is accepted. (2).<br />From the description of the data it was seen that the average pre test results of 50.9630 and post tets were 67.4815, thus there was an increase in the influence of the application of the TGfU model on student Responsibility by 16, 52.</p>

The aim of this study is to determine the influences of Problem Based Learning and learning interest at improving the cognitive learning outcomes in social science of fourth-grade elementary school students. This study is a quasi-experiment study with pre-test and post-test control group design. The sample collection is taken with stratified cluster random sampling technique. The sample of this study is 109 fourth-grade elementary school students, consisted of 50 students from experiment group and 59 students from control group. The students from experiment group are given the application of Problem Based Learning, while the students in control group are given the application of Direct Instruction. The data collection is carried by using the instruments of social science learning outcomes test and social science learning interest questionnaire. The validity of test and questionnaire instruments is carried by expert judgement. The difficulty level, distinguishing power, and reliability of test instrument is tested by using ITEMAN application. The internal consistency and reliability of questionnaire instrument is tested by using SPSS application. The data is analysed by using two-way anova.

 The purpose of this research was to investigate the influence of the Javanese gamelan pieces, namely gendhing lancaran towards the increasing of the spatial-temporal ability. The subjects of this research consist of 60 elementary school students in the fourth grade. By using random methods, those subjects are grouped into two groups those are 30 students on the experiment group and 30 others on the control group. The subjects were assigned to one of two conditions: listening gendhing lancaran (for the experiment group) or no music (for the control group). As a spatial-temporal task, CFIT (culture fair intelligence test) was administered before and after listening gendhing lancaran. The experiment group is scored significantly higher than the non-music group on CFIT. These data support this research as the elements of sounds produced by various music instruments can give stimulus or influence spatial-temporal ability. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menginvestigasi pengaruh tetembangan gamelan Jawa, yaitu gendhing lancaran terhadap peningkatan kemampuan spasial-temporal. Subjek penelitian ini adalah 60 murid sekolah dasar di kelas empat. Dengan menggunakan metode acak, subjek-subjek tersebut dijadikan ke dalam dua kelompok, yaitu 30 dalam kelompok eksperimen dan 30 lainnya dalam kelompok pengawasan. Mereka dikaitkan dengan salah satu dari dua kondisi: mendengar gendhing lancaran (untuk kelompok eksperimen) atau tidak mendengar musik tersebut (untuk kelompok pengawasan). Sebagai tugas spasial-temporal, CFIT (culture fair intelligence test) dicatat sebelum dan sesudah mendengar gendhing lancaran. Kelompok eksperimen secara signifikan bernilai lebih tinggi dibandingkan kelompok pengawasan melalui CFIT. Data ini mendukung penelitian ini di mana elemen-elemen bunyi yang dihasilkan berbagai alat musik dapat memberikan stimulus atau pengaruh pada kemampuan spasial-temporal.

This research is motivated by the results of learning science in fourth grade elementary school students who are still low. The purpose of this study was to improve the learning outcomes of science by applying the Cooperative Think Pair Share (TPS) type learning model. The results showed, seen from the basic score, students who completed as many as 11 people with a percentage of 47.82% while students who did not complete amounted to 12 people with a percentage of 52.17%. cycle I, students who completed at 17 people with a percentage of 73.91% while students who did not complete as many as 6 people with a percentage of 26.08%. cycle II, students who completed as many as 20 people with a percentage of 86.95% while the incomplete amounted to 3 people with a percentage of 13.04%. from the results of this study it can be concluded that by applying the cooperative learning model the Think Pair Share (TPS) type can improve the science learning outcomes of class IV elementary school 004 Seberang Teluk Hilir Kuantan Tengah District Kuantan Singingi Regency.
