The achievement of students science process skills in Indonesia is relatively low, this is partly because learning has not yet explored and facilitated students science process skills. This study aims to identify the effect of interactive demonstrations to basic science process skills of senior high school students in environmental change concept, with global warming sub concept. The subjects of this study were X grade of science in second semester, academic year 2017/2018. The method used in this research was quasi experiment with non equivalent pre-test post-test control group design. The research data was collected by using basic science process skills test, observation form, and questionnaire. The results of data analysis using the Mann Whitney test with a significance level of 0,05 to the value of the post-test of basic science process skills showed a significant difference in basic science process skills of students between experimental group and control group. N-gain of basic science process skills in the experimental group is 0,56, while in the control group is 0,43.

<span>This study aimed to investigate how inquiry-based experiment-integrated science games affect the achievement and scientific process skills of 5th grade students. The topics of “Light and Sound” and “Electricity in Our Lives” were selected for the experiment. Two groups totaling 41 students participated. The research method consisted of a quasi-experimental design utilizing an experimental and control group. While 21 students in the experimental group played inquiry-based experiment-integrated science games developed by the researchers, no educational game was included in the lessons of the control group of 20 students. “Light and Sound Achievement Test”, “Electricity Achievement Test” and “Science Process Assessment” were applied to both groups in the form of a pre- and post-test. To analyze the data, independent t-test was used. Students in the experimental group were more successful than the control group in their scores for both achievement and scientific process skills. It can be inferred from the results that students develop better achievement and scientific process skills by playing science games. It is recommended that such games should be integrated into the science classroom.</span>

Kodály-inspired pedagogy enables students to participate effectively in a music course by engaging in active musical interactions with folk songs and melodies. The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of Kodály-inspired pedagogy on recorder performance and attitudes toward music of secondary school students. A quasi-experimental design was used in the study. The experimental group was taught using Kodály-inspired pedagogy and the control group using the general music teaching methods for 9 weeks. A two-way mixed-design analysis of variance (ANOVA) and content analysis were used to analyze the data. A Recorder Performance Grading Key, music course attitude scale, and open-ended questions were used to collect the data. Consequently, the findings indicated that Kodály-inspired pedagogy had a significant effect on the students’ recorder performance but the researchers could not find a significant effect on students’ attitudes toward the music course. Moreover, students in the experimental group reported improvement in their recorder performance and attitudes toward music education. The researchers recommended including information about the implementation of Kodály-inspired pedagogy in music teacher textbooks, providing in-service training for teachers to enable them to use Kodály-inspired pedagogy.

Purpose This research applies a quasi-experimental research method to investigate the impact of an innovative resource titled “Accounting Exercise” (teaching intervention using physical movement and lyrics) on learning motivation and performance on a group of students enrolled in a first-year undergraduate accounting course in Japan. Design/methodology/approach Five classes were randomly assigned to either an experimental group (two classes) or a control group (three classes). In the experimental group, 90 students participated in a 15-min “Accounting Exercise” at the commencement of lectures over three consecutive weeks. The remaining 133 students assigned to the control group did not participate in the Accounting Exercise. Findings The findings indicate that the Accounting Exercise provided stimuli in maintaining students’ learning motivation. This finding is important for entry-level students where learning motivation has the potential to influence students’ future decisions on major areas of study and career choices. Originality/value This finding is important for entry-level students where future career options are decided. This effect is also believed to contribute to reducing the declining numbers of students in accounting majors.
