Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 14 of 2005 concerning Teachers and Lecturers article 20 paragraph (b) mandates that to carry out their professional duties, teachers are obliged to continuously improve and develop academic qualifications and competencies in accordance with the development of science, technology, and art (Undang‐undang Republik Indonesia Nomor 14 Tahun 2005). The existence of this law is expected to provide the right opportunity to improve its professionalism through training, writing scientific papers, Kelompok Kerja Guru (KKG) and Musyawarah Guru Mata Pelajaran (MGMP). This research uses a qualitative approach. The informants used in this study were the teachers who were members of the Kelompok Kerja Guru Cluster 2, Duduksampeyan Regency, Gresik Regency who implemented the 2013 curriculum. The technique of taking research informants conducted in this study was using non probability sampling. Non-probability sampling techniques used in this study were purposive sampling and snowball sampling. Kelompok Kerja Guru are also forums or places that can be used to foster and enhance the professionalism of elementary school teachers (Depdiknas, 1997: 46). KKG has benefits including as a place to accommodate and solve problems faced by teachers in teaching and learning activities, discussions, examples of teaching, demonstration of the use and manufacture of teaching aids (Alwi, 2009). Based on the discussion of research findings about the role of the Teacher Working Group (KKG) in implementing learning to improve the performance of elementary school teachers, there can be some conclusions that the role of the Kelompok Kerja Guru in carrying out the stages of lesson study activities has been effective because the KKG can provide understanding, guidance, goals, and benefits of lesson study.

The process of learning should be good and right, of course, must be supported by various facilities in addition to the ability of teachers to organize learning. The selection and utilization of teaching aids is one of the important things that must be considered by the teacher so that the learning process can be more meaningful and can achieve the expected goals. In reality some elementary school teachers teaching social studies in the Buleleng sub-district rarely use the aid of teaching aids in their teaching and learning process. This happened because some of the teachers considered that to make an IPS teaching aid was very difficult to do, to use these teaching aids in social studies learning took a relatively long time so the teacher decided to teach without teaching aids. Another reason given is that the cost of making IPS teaching aids costs a lot. Based on this, it is deemed necessary to make training for teachers in making simple IPS teaching aids and use them in learning in elementary schools. The activity was attended by 30 people from the Undiksha FIP PGSD alumni teachers. After the implementation of this activity the teacher is no longer having difficulty making IPS teaching aids and is able to use IPS teaching aids well.

Students need teachers with a deep understanding of mathematical concepts to improve their mathematical knowledge and achievement. The observation results of several elementary school teachers showed that they still have a lack of understanding of the geometry concepts. This research is an exploratory study with a qualitative approach that aims to describe the performance of elementary school teachers in understanding the concepts of triangles and squares. The participants in this study were elementary school teachers across Soe City District. A description test deals with the geometry concept of two-dimensional shapes that were implemented to determine the most appropriate teachers to participate in the study. Thirty-three teachers were then selected based on this preliminary test results. In-depth interviews were also conducted with the participants. The data analysis showed that the participants had a lack of understanding of the concept of two-dimensional shapes and necessary arithmetic skills. Moreover, the data suggested that the participants held various perceptions regarding their understanding of certain concepts based on their experience in teaching the mathematical concept. Based on these results, some programs are recommended to improve professionalism and pedagogical competencies, such as a refresher training program for basic mathematical material and training in teaching aids used. These programs are expected to help prepare elementary school teachers in teaching mathematics.

The purpose of the study was to determine the training needs needed by teachers in making digital products to facilitate the learning process. Training is as a way for teachers to innovate digital competencies. The participants of this study were 10 elementary school teachers (F=6 and M=4). Participants are homeroom teachers from grades 1 to 6, and 4 were subject teachers (Mathematics, English, local content and sports). This study used the descriptive qualitative method. Observation, documents and interviews collected data. The data analysis process used the Miles and Huberman model through data reduction, data presentation, drawing conclusions and triangulation. The results show that teachers need workshops that can directly practice making digital teaching tools such as learning videos and developing videos on the YouTube channel. However, they have difficulties with the technological devices they have. There are 30% of teachers who have full technology equipment, and the rest rely on smartphones for online teaching and learning. Thus, schools can consider providing technology tools that teachers can use in developing digital competencies and digital learning tools.
