Effectieve begeleiding op ondersteuningsniveau 3 met Rekensprint [Effective Tier 3 support with Math sprint]
Authors: van den Boer Madelon , de Jong Peter F.
Published: April 2022

Schools are expected to provide children with math problems with targeted instruction, in addition to classroom instruction. To do this, schools need to know which programs can be used effectively for Tier 3 support. In this study, we evaluated the effectiveness of Rekensprint, an intervention program focused on the acquisition and automatization of basic mathematical operations. Progress in addition and subtraction, as well as multiplication and division, were compared for children in Grades 3 and 4 who received the Rekensprint intervention and a control group receiving no additional practice. Within the intervention group, we distinguished children with mild (intervention-better) and severe (intervention-weak) math problems. Both the intervention-better and the intervention-weak group made more progress in addition and subtraction than the control group. For multiplication and division there was no difference between the intervention-better and the control group, but the intervention-weak group made significantly more progress. These findings indicate that Rekensprint can be used effectively for the acquisition and automatization of addition and subtraction for children with mild as well as severe math problems. We found hardly any indications of generalization to multiplication and division. Key words: Mathematics, Tier 3, basic mathematical operations
Navigating the COVID-19 Infodemic: The Influence of Metacognitive Efficiency on Health Behaviors and Policy Attitudes
Authors: Lisi Matteo
Published: April 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic has been accompanied by an infodemic of misinformation and increasing polarization around public health measures, such as social distancing and national lockdowns. In this study, I examined metacognitive efficiency – the extent to which the subjective feeling of knowing predicts the objective accuracy of knowledge – as a tool to understand and measure the assimilation of misleading misinformation in a balanced sample of Great Britain's population (N=1689), surveyed at the end of the third national lockdown. Utilizing a signal-detection theory approach to quantify metacognitive efficiency, I found that at the population level, metacognitive efficiency for COVID-19 knowledge was impaired compared to general knowledge, indicating a worse alignment between confidence levels and the actual ability to discern true and false statements. Crucially, individual differences in metacognitive efficiency related to COVID-19 knowledge predicted health-protective behaviours, vaccination intentions, and attitudes towards public health measures, even after accounting for the level of knowledge itself and demographic covariates, such as education, income, and political alignment. These results reveal the significant impact of misinformation on public beliefs and suggest that fostering confidence in accurate knowledge should be a key target for science communication efforts aimed at promoting compliance with public health and social measures.
Affective Forecasting in Everyday Life: Accuracy and Associations with Emotional Benefits
Authors: Moeck Ella , Grewal Komal , Greenaway Katharine Helen , Koval Peter , Kalokerinos Elise Katherine
Published: April 2022

People often think about how they might feel tomorrow or next week. Research on affective forecasting suggests people overestimate their future feelings, but it remains unknown whether this pattern extends to everyday affective forecasts. We aimed to test whether people can accurately forecast their daily and weekly affect, and whether accuracy is associated with emotional benefits. At baseline, participants (N=209) forecasted how they would feel over the next week. Each evening for 7-days, participants forecasted tomorrow’s affect, and rated today’s affect, emotion-focused coping, and life satisfaction. Participants were relatively accurate in predicting tomorrow’s affect but showed evidence of absolute inaccuracy by overestimating their exact affect level. Forecasting accuracy did not predict emotion-focused coping or daily life satisfaction, but experienced affect did. Thus, people may be better off focusing on managing their emotions when they arise, rather than trying to manage them in advance.

Authors: Marwita Marwita , Efendi Raswen , Rossi Evy
Published: April 2022

The purpose of this research is to obtain the best concentration of cinnamon on the quality of candied pineapple pith (Ananas comosusL. Merr) during storage. This research used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five   theatments and three replications to obtain 15 experimental units. The treatments in this study were K1 (6% cinnamon concentration), K2 (8% cinnamon concentration), K3 (10% cinnamon concentration), K4 (12% cinnamon concentration), and K5 (14% cinnamon concentration). The data obtained were  analyzed statistically using ANOVA and DNMRT test at 5% level. The results showed that the concentration of cinnamon in candied pineapple pith significantly affected the water content, total sugar content, pH, vitamin C, total plate count, overall descriptive and hedonic sensory assessment. The best treatment after 18 days of storage was K3 treatment (10% cinnamon concentration) with an average moisture content of 24.46%, total sugar content of 19.90%, acidity (pH) 4.36, vitamin C 1.08 mg/100 g, and total plate counts of 71,00 × 10^3 koloni/g. Overall sensory assessment favored by panelists with a description of yellowish brown color, very aromatic pineapple and cinnamon, taste of cinnamon and  slightly hard texture.  Keywords: Candied,Cinnamon, Pineapple
Trash from a temple: a deposit next to the Isis Temple at Berenike (Egypt)
Authors: Popławski Szymon , Kraśniewska Urszula , Mi Filippo , Oleksiak Jerzy
Published: April 2022

The article discusses the stratigraphy and chronological phasing of a late antique trash deposit discovered just outside the north wall of the Isis Temple courtyard. It appears to be consumption waste collected from a large-scale event taking place in the immediate vicinity over a short period of time. Several elements of architectural decoration were found among the rubble, including three fragments of ‘Ionic’ cornice blocks that are an indication of the presence of at least one building with a classical-style architecture in the urban landscape. The fragments are quite unusual in the southern part of the Eastern Desert of Egypt and the first and somewhat unexpected attestation of this style recorded from Berenike.
Aportaciones a la educación transdigital
Authors: Palacios-Díaz Rosalba
Published: April 2022

La educación transdigital propone que hay una importancia simétrica entre lo humano y lo no humano al momento de aprender, que el aprendizaje no es una prerrogativa humana y el aprendiz siempre ha utilizado recursos para aprender. Esta perspectiva ofrece un panorama educativo con alcances fuera de los límites institucionales y cercano a la construcción personal del aprendizaje. Este trabajo ofrece aportaciones a la educación transdigital desde el análisis sobre la transversalidad que caracteriza la tecnología digital en la vida cotidiana. Estas aportaciones son resultado de una investigación documental que aborda antecedentes históricos, propuestas conceptuales, caracterizaciones, comparaciones y clasificaciones que sustentan la propuesta. Así, la educación transdigital observa que el aprendizaje ocurre de manera espontánea dentro de una red educativa cuando se asocian elementos humanos y no humanos. Por ello, el aprendiz sustenta cambios al contexto educativo a partir de la relación humano-tecnología digital y el residuo de esa asociación es el conocimiento. En este sentido, es necesario profundizar la discusión sobre la red educativa de asociaciones, el aprendizaje de lo no humano y la metodología de la educación transdigital.

Psycholinguistic Paradigm of the Medical Staff – Patients Communicative Interaction in the Conditions of COVID-19 in Ukraine and Scotland
Authors: Mykhalchuk Nataliia , Zlyvkov Valeriy , Lukomska Svitlana , Nabochuk Alexander , Khrystych Nina
Published: April 2022

Purpose. The purpose of this research is, based on the results of our empirical research, to determine the psycholinguistic paradigms of the Medical staff – Patients communicative interaction in the conditions of COVID-19 in Ukraine and Scotland, in particular in the context of the perception of the emotional concepts by respondents.

Methods. The main method of our research is a psycholinguistic experiment, the main stage of which was the exemplification experiment. It is the experiment that allows us to make a specific idea of the concept, the result of which is the selection of a set of lexical units representing some object. As additional methods we used oral interviews and questionnaires for the method of psychological diagnosis of “The Methodology for the psychological diagnostics of coping mechanisms” by Heim (2022).

Results. Among the main associations of Ukrainians we should note a lexical unit “to die”, which is the most frequent characteristics of the youngest respondents (in age of 31–55 years old). In addition their behavior is also characterized by a reaction of “fear” – “to be scared”, “to fade” (relevant for people from 31 to 77 years old), “to complain”, “to suffer” (they are typical for respondents of 31–55 years old). Respondents of all age groups who were treated at Western General Hospital in Edinburgh (Scotland) recorded categorically different aspects of the unit “fear” by derivative word-forming units which explain: a personal state of the individual: synonymous adjectives “fearful” and “fearsome” – full of fear; traits of the character of the person (which in 96.69% of cases belonged to the Medical Staff, and only 1.54% of cases – to patients); negative assessment of the threat object; a manner of the person’s behavior.

Conclusions. Ukrainian patients’ perception of “bad news” should be divided into two phases: the first one is existential. It is characterized by fear, despair, destruction of life plans. The second phase is mobilization, when personal resources are activated, including their adaptive and relatively adaptive coping, and “bad news” is a trigger for fight with the disease COVID-19. Respondents from Scotland think that archilexem of field “fear” is a diffuse unit “a fear of COVID-19” with a lot of meanings, which plays the role of hyperonym for all other synonyms which have the function of nominees of fear. We are talking about the actualization of conceptual structures of the meanings of synonyms which denote the forms of prototype emotion “a fear of getting sick with COVID-19”.
Неправдивість письмового тексту: шляхи її визначення
Authors: Tereshchenko Liliia , Gladio Svitlana
Published: April 2022

Мета. Виявлення шляхом емпіричного дослідження вербальних ознак неправдивості або правдивості письмового тексту на матеріалі рідної (української) та першої іноземної (англійської) мов.
Методи. Учасниками емпіричного психолінгвістичного дослідження стали 200 студентів, котрі отримали завдання створити українською або англійською мовами два описи подій: один правдивий, а інший – неправдивий на ту ж тему. У загальному було проаналізовано 15 показників, які можуть свідчити про неправдивість письмового тексту. Для виявлення статистично значимої різниця застосовано t-критерій Стьюдента та Т-критерій Вілкоксона, для виявлення залежності між показниками – кореляційний аналіз Спірмена.
Результати. Проведене дослідження підтвердило, що незалежно від мови (української чи англійської) правдиві тексти довші за неправдиві у більшості випадків, вони також більше наповнені емотивно-сенсорними та просторовими деталями, містять чисельні згадки особи мовця (самореференцію), натомість неправдиві тексти частіше актуалізують відмінні від правдивих домінуючі концепти. При аналізі англійських текстів, написаних українськими студентами, підтвердились наступні критерії неправдивості писемного мовлення: “лексичне розмаїття” мовлення; нерелевантність та надлишковість певної інформації, повтори; менша кількість числівників. Окремо підтверджено, що для українських неправдивих письмових текстів властиві порушення хронології подій та невиправдані контекстом зміни наративної перспективи. Не знайшли значимого статистичного підтвердження неправдивості писемного мовлення для обох мов такі ознаки: співвідношення довжини прологу щодо довжини всього тексту; наявність модифікуючих прислівників; наявність двозначних або неоднозначних, неконкретних номінацій; спонтанні виправлення на письмі; частотність вживання займенників першої особи множини та третьої особи однини і множини.
Висновки. Існує низка вербальних ознак, за якими неправдивий письмовий текст відрізняється від правдивого, не зважаючи на той факт, що за своєю природою неправдиве мовлення є прихованим кодом та імітацією будь-якого типу правдивого мовлення. Однак ці критерії частково різняться для текстів, написаних українською та англійською мовами.

Effect of Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor on Expression of Let-7 MicroRNA in Proliferation of Human Dental Pulp Cells
Authors: Jirawechwongsakul Pimporn , Taebunpakul Patrayu , Pavasant Prasit
Published: April 2022

Objective: Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) plays a pivotal role in cell proliferation, differentiation and extracellular matrix turnover in various tissues. In human dental pulp cells (HDPCs), let-7 microRNA is involved in cell proliferation and differentiation. There is little information on the effect of bFGF-induced cell proliferation on let-7 microRNA in HDPCs. This study investigated the effect of bFGF on let-7g, let-7f, and let-7i microRNAs and some of the genes involved in cell proliferation including p53 and Ki67 in HDPCs.Material and Methods: HDPCs were cultured and treated with bFGF at 0, 1, and 5 ng/mL. Cell proliferation was examined using the 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay at 24 and 48 hours. Additionally, gene expressions of let-7g, let-7f, let-7i microRNAs, and p53 and Ki67 were examined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction at 24 hours. All experiments were performed in triplicate.Results: The results showed that let-7g, let-7f, and let-7i microRNAs were expressed in HDPCs. MTT assays showed that bFGF induced greater cell proliferation than the controls at 24 and 48 hours (p-value<0.050). HDPCs treated with bFGF showed a decrease in p53 expression (p-value<0.001) while Ki67 expression increased (p-value<0.001). The expression of let-7g microRNA decreased under the influence of bFGF (p-value<0.050). However, bFGF had no effect on expression of let-7f and let-7i microRNAs (p-value>0.050).Conclusion: Our preliminary study showed that exogenous bFGF could decrease let-7g microRNA expression suggesting that let-7g microRNA may be involved in bFGF-induced HDPCs proliferation.

Authors: Tikhonova M. A. , Aminova E. V.
Published: April 2022

The article presents data on determining the effectiveness of the use of the growth regulator Organostim on grapes of the Arcadia variety in the conditions of the Orenburg region. The studies were carried out on the basis of the Orenburg branch of the Federal Research Center of Horticulture from 2019 to 2021. Vineyard was established in 2012. Objects of research were the introduced grape variety Arcadia, growth regulator Organostim, VR (15 g/l dihydroquercetin + 30 g/l triethanolammonium salt of orthoresoxyacetic acid). Getting a stable harvest occupies one of the main places in the viticulture industry of the Orenburg region. In modern agriculture, plant growth regulators are used, which improve plant root nutrition, increase resistance to stress factors, stimulate plant growth, the formation of ovaries and berries, accelerate ripening times, and improve product quality. As a result of the studies, data were obtained that showed that when using the Organostim option (2.0 l / ha), the maximum number of bunches was noted (12 pcs.), average berry weight (7.4 g), number of berries per bunch (105 pcs.). There is an increase in the mass of the bunch and productivity at a rate of consumption of an agrochemical of 2.0 l / ha by 22 % and 111 %, respectively, relative to the control variant. It was revealed that the average yield per hectare when using Organostim (2.0 l/ha) was 11.4 t/ha, and the increase was 6.0 tons. As a result of the studies, the effectiveness of the use of the plant growth regulator Organostim on the Arcadia grape variety was established.
Bioecology of raspberry Rubus idaeus L. viruses and improvement by the method of dry thermotherapy
Authors: Upadyshev M. T. , Petrova A. D.
Published: April 2022

Raspberries are affected by pathogens of more than 30 viral diseases, which significantly reduce the productivity of plantations. Arabis mosaic viruses (ArMV), Raspberry ring spot (RpRSV), Latent strawberry ring spot (SLRSV), Tomato black ring (TBRV), and Raspberry bushy dwarf (RBDV) can cause significant damage. The purpose of the research is to assess the occurrence of viral diseases and improve the health of raspberry plants by dry-air thermotherapy. During 2019 — 2021 in the Moscow region, 494 raspberry plants of 23 varieties were diagnosed by ELISA. For ELISA, diagnostic kits from Loewe (Germany) were used; leaves were taken as samples. The results were recorded on a Stat Fax 2100 plate photometer. Dry-air thermotherapy was carried out at a temperature of 38 °C for 2 months. The prevalence of viruses on raspberries was 35.8 % with a predominance of the RBDV virus (20.4 %). The RpRSV was diagnosed in 13.2 % of plants. Viruses ArMV, SLRSV, and TBRV were noted with a low frequency of occurrence: 5.1 %, 4.0 %, and 2.4 %, respectively. Dry air thermotherapy led to a decrease in the index of infection of raspberry plants with the RBDV virus 5 days after the completion of treatment, and in plants of two varieties, even 1 year later. Raspberry plants of 19 varieties free from major harmful viruses have been identified. The yield of virus-free raspberry plants was 40 %.
Teacher education library e-resources integration assessment
Authors: Matorevhu Alois
Published: April 2022

Expensive technological hardware and software, prohibitively high cost of installing e-learning systems, the dedication required in terms of time and skills development, and experts required to service e-learning resources systems are some challenges developing countries face in using e-resources for teaching and learning. In the context of these challenges, this study was conducted at a library of a secondary teachers’ college Y in Zimbabwe to gain insight into the nature of E-Resources Integration. Qualitative research methods involving interviews, observations, and document analysis were used to generate data. Interviewees who volunteered were pre-services teachers, teacher educators, Librarians, and ICT personnel managing the e-resources system. Through thematic analysis, data were presented as verbatim, and narratives were interpreted to unpack meaning imbued. Findings show that power outages, poor internet connectivity, lack of e-resources awareness by prospective users, competencies in using e-resources, and computers, were factors that inhibited effective e-resources use for teaching and learning. As a recommendation, libraries should design and provide e-learning resource services that motivate learners consistent with their information needs, increasing the probability of using such resources.
Questioning practice in EFL classrrom interactions: from type to syntactical form
Authors: Darong Hieronimus Canggung
Published: April 2022

As the most prominent features uttered by EFL teachers in classroom interactions, questioning plays important roles to invite student responses. This study was an attempt to analyse questioning practice employed by EFL teachers in terms of ways or strategies namely contingency, convergence-divergence, and syntactical form in their interactions with students. Data were gathered from four purposefully chosen English teachers’ questions employed during their interactions with students at a larger corpus project of UMSpEAKs (Universitas Negeri Malang Spoken English in Academic Kontexts), thus, transcribed and analysed following the principle of Conversation Analysis (CA). The Conversation Analysis revealed that the contingent questions differently appeared for each teacher. The most question type used to be contingent was a clarification. Besides, the teacher questions were mainly convergent and divergent by means of display questions that consistently evolved student contributions and enlarge the talks. Meanwhile, the most frequently occurring question- syntactical form was W-h questions and followed by yes-no question forms. The W-h questions having more syntactically complex utterances than yes/no questions were powerful and would prompt more students’ responses. Meanwhile, yes/no questions were posed when the teachers felt that students have difficulty in answering or understanding the W-h and how/what about questions and invited short responses. Thus, contingency, convergence-divergence, and syntactical form that was differently constructed following the commodity exchange in the classroom discourse were very beneficial to invite student responses, discursively carry functions, and extend the classroom discourse.

Authors: Feri Alkhadad , Zulherman Zulherman
Published: April 2022

This study aims to (1) know the process of creating e-module-based learning media on energy materials and their changes in Nearpod applications for elementary students, (2) know the feasibility of energy learning e-module media products and their changes to the Nearpod application for elementary school students who are eligible for use in Natural Science learning. This study uses a Research and Development (RD) model. Based on preliminary studies, there is still a lack of interactive learning media based on technology to support and increase the enthusiasm of students' learning. A learning media is needed that can help teachers and students with learning activities. This research is based on previous preliminary studies that have been carried out, and the aim is to conduct a feasibility test of a research product developed. The development model used is the ADDIE model. The data collection techniques used are interview and questionnaire methods. Data analysis used descriptive percentage analysis. The results of the analysis showed media expert validation = 72.31% with Agree criteria, Material experts = 83.07% with Strongly Agree criteria, Feasibility test of teachers at SDN 1 Tukak Sadai and SDN 2 Tukak Sadai = 97.86% with the criteria of Strongly Agree and the product feasibility test on students = 95.28% with the criteria of Strongly Agree. This contributes to the Nearpod-Based Development of E-Modules to Improve the Learning Achievement of Elementary School Students.
Factors obstructing the application of student-centered education at schools in Azerbaijan
Authors: Khalafov Anar
Published: April 2022

Involvement of children with special educational needs in inclusive education at schools of general education in the Republic of Azerbaijan is one of the priority issues of the state. Many reforms in the education system, particularly at schools, need to be carried out to promote inclusive education. This research emphasizes the importance of implementing the student-centered education approach in the general education system to make schools inclusive in the country. As a ground for this, the article, having cited from scientific papers of different researchers, points out that, for example, a student-centered education allows a school to meet the different needs of students and take the specifics of each student into consideration. The level of progress of student-centered learning was assessed in the conducted research through studying teachers’ instructional methods at schools operating in the education system of Azerbaijan. As a result of the survey and focus group discussions conducted with teachers within this research, it was revealed that although teachers understand the positive impact of a student’s learning through student-centered methods, in most classes, they continue teaching lessons in a teacher-centered style due to several school or out-of-school factors. The result is that teacher-centered classes still being conducted at schools are not only the incompetency of teachers, but as a result, it is not possible to achieve the development of student-centered learning by improving only teachers’ skills. Many factors obstruct the change from teacher-centered learning to student-centered learning in the classroom. The identification of school culture and the classification of culture-forming factors are also discussed in this research.
The synergetic effect of initial accounting courses, students performance and professional guidance on accounting career
Authors: Musa Grace Akinyi
Published: April 2022

Accounting career has received criticisms right from the University students, Accounting Professional Bodies and the Business World at large. Organizations both public and private sectors have all pointed figures at the poor quality of accounting graduates which Universities are producing. The main objective of this study was to assess the synergetic effect of Initial Accounting Courses, Students Performance and Professional Guidance on Accounting Career. The rationale was that students who performed well in the Initial Accounting courses were expected to excel in the other advanced accounting courses, given the chronological nature of accounting courses. Students were also expected to transfer the same knowledge to the accounting practice in the business world. This would be possible due to students’ relatively higher understanding and appreciation of accounting. It was also expected that Professional Guidance specific to the Accounting Career gave students adequate insights into the discipline that heightened the probability of their choosing Accounting Career. A conceptual framework was used to explain the key factors studied that indicated the interactive relationships amongst them. Four Theories were used including; Wearing Two Hats Theory, Social Learning Theory, Theory of Consumer Behaviour and Theory of Reasoned Action. The population of the study were the Bachelors of Commerce students from 29 Kenyan Universities. The sample comprised of the selected Bachelors of Commerce students from the selected twelve Kenyan Universities. The study adopted a cross sectional research design with a mixture of purposive and stratified random sampling techniques. A pilot study was conducted to test the validity and reliability of the study instruments. A researcher designed questionnaire was used to collect data from sampled students. Logistic regression model was used to test the null hypothesis which was rejected at 5% level of significance. The findings revealed a positive significant synergetic effect of The First Course in Accounting, Students Performance and Professional Guidance on Accounting Career. The study concluded that the synergetic effect of the three variables were greater than the sum of the individual variables. The study’s contribution to knowledge is that the survival of Accounting Career should be pegged on the synergetic effect of the First Course in Accounting, Students Performance and Professional Guidance. Unless this is adopted, Accounting Career’s survival will still be at a risk and therefore remain unresolved.
The historical context of globalization in Egypt: Foreign professors’ migration to the Egyptian university (1908)
Authors: Ead Hamed Abdelreheem
Published: April 2022

As a major offshoot of the national Egyptian movement that goes back to the beginning of the 20th century, a number of national leaders, Enlightenment pioneers, and social thinkers called for the establishment of an Egyptian university. These individuals hoped for this to be a lighthouse of liberal thought and the basis of a comprehensive academic revival in all fields of knowledge in order to be able to cope with international scientific and academic advancement. By May 1908, the Royal Palace chose the administrative council for the project of the Egyptian University (EU). When the university began, not a single Egyptian could meet all its ideal criteria for professors. The EU did borrow staff from the schools of law for its criminology, economics, and law programs. Dar al-Ulum constructed the university between 1908and 1925, which had at least nine professors. The other source of interim professors was Europe. The European professors fall into two categories: those who lectured in French or English on topics unrelated to the Middle East and the orientalists who lectured on Arabic and Islamic subjects. France, Italy, England, and, to a lesser extent, Germany all jockeyed for influence at the university. European professors dominated the first generation of faculty members while promising that Egyptian students were sent abroad to train for future teaching positions. In the present review, light will be shed on the large role played by those elite European professors in determining and pushing the university forward to stand with the Egyptian professors in order to examine the development of European-style education within the EU and, to a lesser extent, the cultural influence of a number of European countries in Egyptian education.

There are many ways in which education 4.0 can continue to develop rapidly and coexist with the development of increasingly advanced technology to bond with each other to be balanced, one of which is using blockchain technology that is integrated in the education sector for various purposes. The main direction in developing global integration in education includes the creating a single educational space and optimization of the interaction between education and stakeholder relationships. The blockchain method implemented in education 4.0 was not widely used because initially, blockchain was only known for the financial sector. Blockchain is comprehensive and appropriate for this era, as blockchain offers technology, trust, and transparency by replacing the previous system with a new system. A particular problem is a need for innovative research to provide new insights into blockchain transformation inf education and application opportunities that can be accepted and used optimally. Researchers used the vast mind method and literature study. The goal is to inform the added value of blockchain that is applied in education as needed, the renewal of research and opportunities for implementing blockchain in education 4.0. The blockchain technology that can be used in education, for example, is archiving, learning, certification and other.

One of the goals of vocational revitalization is the improvement of educators/teachers’ competence. This is considered important as the competence is the main capital for managing learning process, besides knowing the functions and duties as a teacher in the classroom, which can be in the form of the teachers’ performance. However, these two things are not obtained instantly, but a process and several factors have influenced them as well. This study aims to find some factors that can affect competence and performance based on the previous research as well as potential factors that likely influence. By using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, seven factors and three potential factors along with their measurement indicators have been proven to influence the competence and the performance. Thus, it can be concluded that to find out the relationship between potential factors such as social media, a religion and a healthy lifestyle on the teachers’ competence and performance, it is necessary to prove the findings in this article.

Authors: Suyadi Suyadi
Published: April 2022

The Revolution of Industry 4.0 threatens the existence of the science of Islamic education if the curriculum is not outcomes based. The development of Islamic higher education curriculum allows the creation of new academic subjects which integrates learning, research and service to produce innovative and tested work. The aim of this research is to put forward a curriculum development model or prototype as a strategy to maintain the science of Islamic education learning programs in the era of Industry Revolution 4.0. The research approach is qualitative of the phenomenological type. The setting of the research is the learning program for the Masters in Islamic Education (Magister Pendidikan Agama Islam – MPAI), Faculty of Islam, Ahmad Dahlan University. The choice of this research setting is because the curriculum of this learning program has created new academic subjects which have an outcome-based integrated learning, research and service, as a result on reaching the three year point it has gained full accreditation from the Higher Education National Accreditation Board (Badan Akreditasi Nasional–Perguruan Tinggi – BAN-PT). Respondents in the research are the MPAI academic community which comprise six lecturers including the Chair of the Study Program and Secretariat of the Study Program together with eighty students studying at the masters level. The research results show that the MPAI learning program has created two new academic subjects that is, Islamic Education Studies and Intellectual Property Rights (Hak Kekayaan Intelektual – HKI) together with Neuroscience and Islamic Education Theory. Both new subjects have mobilized research which has produced innovative works obtaining more than sixty intellectual property rights and occupying the first rank in publications in national and international journals in the the Sinta Index 2020 data base. This shows that this learning program is able to maintain a scientific existence in the era of the industry revolution through outcome-based curriculum development.
A review on L2 models of reading theories and reading teaching strategy
Authors: Ahsani Nizam , Budairi Ahmad
Published: April 2022

L2 reading instruction has tended to focus on the explicit teaching of reading strategies on the grounds that a strong grasp of reading strategies would lead to better reading comprehension skills. We argue that such teaching practice is very much anchored in the cognitive-psychological based theory of reading that have characterized the field of SLA over the years. In light of this, we seek to present a summary of various theories, research findings and arguments around the nature of reading in SLA. The data were collected through electronic database such as Eric, Google Scholar, Proquest and Wiley Online Library. We discuss three major reading models: bottom-up, top-down, and interactive model, alongside metacogniton theory, extensive and intensive reading as well as reading assessment. We believe that a sound understanding of these cognitive based processes underlying reading activity could serve as the basis for improvement in reading instruction. However, there is an inherent need to consider sociocultural aspects of reading in order to help students sustain reading engagement over an extended period of time toward the formation of reading habit. We conclude the discussion by suggesting that as reading actvity becomes increasingly digitized, more qualitative research studies exploring student’s individual experience are highly recommended, in complimentary to the cognitive-psychological based theory of reading.

Authors: Ramdhan Muhammad , Sukarelawan Moh. Irma , Thohir M. Anas , Arifiyanti Fitria
Published: April 2022

This study aims to explore students’ perceptions of the implementation of online learning during the pandemic in terms of gender perspective, ownership of social media, and duration of internet access. This research was conducted by a survey involving 87 students (P = 51% and L = 49%) in junior high school. Data were analyzed using Logit Value of Item (LVI) and Wright map combined with Logit Value of Person (LVP). Students’ perceptions were reviewed based on gender, social media ownership, and duration of daily internet access. The results showed that, in general, students have a positive perception of online learning. Based on gender, male and female students have almost the same positive perception of online learning. In terms of ownership of social media accounts, students with one account or two social media accounts have a perception of online learning above the average logit person. Most students who access the internet for more than 5 hours have a perception above the average logit person. Students whose internet access duration is 3-4 hours have a perception above the average logit person. So, gender, social media ownership, and internet access duration of 3-4 hours have positive perceptions of online learning.
