The Effectiveness of Podcast Media in Leadership Style Material: The Story of the Prophet Moses AS on Changes in Student Character
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study aims to test the effectiveness of podcast media compared to conventional methods in improving the character of elementary school students through the leadership narrative of the Prophet Moses AS. With a quantitative approach and a pretest-posttest control group experimental design, the research was conducted in one class of grade IV students of SD Al Khotimah, who were given conventional learning treatment and digital podcasts alternately. The results showed that there was no significant difference between the two methods on the change in students' character, with an F score of 1.174 (smaller than the F-table of 3.947), and an average podcast posttest score of 83.083 and a conventional 81.000. These findings suggest that podcasts have potential as an innovative alternative learning medium, although they are not significantly superior. The practical implications of this study indicate that podcasts can still be used as a complement to conventional learning, mainly because of their ability to build emotional engagement and convey character values narratively. The development of podcast-based learning media needs to be supported by a longer learning duration and a reflective approach in order to have a more profound character impact.
