This study is aimed at investigating the difference of students’ civics achievement between those who are taught by Think Pair Share model based on concept mapping and those who are taught by conventional learning model of the fifth grade students in Elementary School of Cluster I in Petang District. It is a quasi-experimental research using non-equivalent post-test only control group design. The population of this research is 102 students in grade V in Elementary School of Cluster I Petang District. The samples of this research are fifth grade students of SD Negeri 3 Carangsari as experimental group and fifth grade students of SD Negeri 1 Carangsari as control group. The data of civics achievement were collected by using multiple choice tests. The data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential statistical analysis (t-test). The result showed that tcount= 3,83 and ttable = 2,03 (tcount>ttable) which can be concluded that there are significant difference between the students’ civics achievement between those who were taught by Think Pair Share learning model based on concept mapping and those who were taught by the conventional learning model in grade V in Elementary School of Cluster I Petang District of Badung Regency in academic year 2017/2018.

This study aimed to know about the affect of reciprocal teaching model based on performance assessment againts the competence science knowledge of fourth grade students of elementary school Gugus I Gianyar district in 2017/2018. This research type is quasi experiment research with nonequivalent control group design. The population of this study is all students of class IV elementary school Gugus I Gianyar district which 440 students. Sample were taken by random sampling technique, so that the IVA class in elementary school 7 Gianyar as the experimental group and the IVB class in elementary school 6 Gianyar as the control group with the total students in each group of 30 students. The data collection was done by the test method, the type of test was the usual multiple-choice objective test. The data obtained were analyzed using t-test analysis of separated variance. The result of data analysis is tcount = 7.067> ttable = 2,000 at 5% significance and dk = 58, then H0 is rejected and Ha accepted. The average value of science knowledge competence of the experimental group X ̅ = 0,46 , while average science knowledge competence of control group X ̅ = 0,26. Based on the results of this research, it can be concluded that the Reciprocal Teaching learning model based on performance assesment affect the knowledge competence of science students fourth grade students of elementary school Gugus I Gianyar districts year 2017/2018

The aims of this study are to (1) determine the level of mathematics anxiety (MA) of pre-service elementary school teachers, (2) compare the MA among pre-service elementary school teachers in terms of gender, and (3) compare the MA among pre-service elementary school teachers in terms of the semester. This research employed a quantitative approach with comparative research design. In addition, the samples were 498 pre-service elementary school teachers. The instrument used is the Revised-Mathematics Anxiety Survey (R-MANX) developed by Bursal and Paznokas (2006). R-MANX consists of 30 statement of a 5-point Likert scale. The data analysis was processed using one-way ANOVA assisted by SPSS version 23. The findings reveal that the MA of pre-service elementary school teachers is high. Further, it is revealed that there is no significant MA difference between male and female pre-service elementary school teachers. Also, there is no significance of MA difference among pre-service elementary school teachers who are in 2nd semester, 4th semester, and 6th semester. Therefore, the results of this research imply that MA can affect pedagogical competence of a teacher and it could have an impact on the way the teacher manages the class.
