Critical thinking ability is a very important basic ability in learning mathematics. In the era of technological advances and digitalization, a comprehensive learning approach is needed that accommodates critical thinking skills. The controversial problem-based multimodal approach with ethnomathematics is seen as being able to improve this ability. This can be seen from the characteristics of the learning model with the Ethnomathematically Controversial Problem-Based Multimodal approach that accommodates visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles. However, there is no empirical evidence that the combination of that approach and ethnomathematics (Balinese culture) in digital learning can improve students' critical thinking skills. This study aims to comprehend the impact of digital learning with a controversial problem-based multimodal approach, incorporating Meru and Jejaitan Bali ethnomathematics on students' critical thinking skills. Quasi-experimental research uses a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) applied to measure students' initial abilities, namely students with low, medium, and high initial abilities. The instrument used in this research is a test of critical thinking skills which contains controversial issues with ethnomathematical nuances in the cases of the sacred building of Meru. The population consists of 202 grade IX students, with 48 in the experimental group and 52 in the control group. The ANOVA test results demonstrated that using this approach was effective in improving students' critical thinking skills. (This can be seen from the value of sig. 0.00 &lt; =0.05 which means that there is a difference in students' critical thinking skills between the experimental class and the control class). According to the t-test results, students in the experimental group had significantly higher critical thinking skills than students in the control group. Tukey's test shows that critical thinking ability varies depending on the student's beginning ability. In conclusion, this combination is effective in improving students' critical thinking skills, especially on the topic of geometry.

Tis research aims to reveal the combinations of conditions leading to Korean teacher job satisfaction. The data of this study are derived from the 2018 Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS). Teacher job satisfaction was approached as a composite scale with two dimensions: job satisfaction with profession and job satisfaction with work environment. The explanatory variables were preparation for pedagogical content knowledge, teacher self-efficacy in general, teacher self-efficacy in multicultural classrooms, teachers' innovative climate, teacher-student relations, social perceptions of teacher value, and professional development barriers. The findings using fsQCA are as follows: (1) the presence of social perceptions of teacher value is a necessary condition for a high level of job satisfaction with the profession; (2) four distinct paths were extracted to explain the high level of job satisfaction with the profession; (3) four distinct paths were shown clearly to explain the low level of job satisfaction with the profession; (4) none of the conditions is a necessary condition for job satisfaction with the work environment; (5) five distinct paths were singled out to explain the high level of job satisfaction with the work environment; and (6) three distinct paths were identified to explain the low level of job satisfaction with the work environment. The findings revealed Korean teacher job satisfaction in multicultural secondary schools by outlining several combinations of factors that lead to paths explaining job satisfaction with profession and job satisfaction with work environment. Some implications and a few recommendations to improve teacher job satisfaction are suggested.

Social Emotional Learning (SEL) is a learning that focuses on self-development of students to achieve success in learning and life. The characteristics of SEL require a relationship pattern that prioritizes equality, which is identical to the characteristics of a country with egalitarian culture. This literature review aims to systematically review the literature on the application of SEL in elementary schools in a country with paternalistic culture. The literature search was carried out through the ScienceDirect and Semantic Scholar databases for the period of 2010-2021. The inclusion criterion was English articles that specifically discussed the development of SEL in elementary schools in a country with paternalistic culture. Based on the article extraction, 4 qualified articles were selected. The results of the review show that SEL can be developed in a country with paternalistic culture through the Strong Kids, PATHS, Collaborative Learning and Social Support optimization programs. These programs are effective to develop social-emotional skills in a country with paternalistic culture, with a supporting factor of changing the teacher's mindset to change their role as a partner that emphasizes equality in implementing SEL. Thus, it is important for teachers to develop SEL in elementary schools.

The theoretical framework and conceptual framework help to determine the purpose of scientific research, facilitate the analysis of data, organize the thoughts of researchers, increase the reliability of research, and ensure that research is shared in a wide area. Although these two concepts seem to be basically the same, they have structural differences and the roles they assume are not same. Despite this, it is seen that many researchers use these two concepts when structuring their academic studies without fully distinguishing between them. In this research, 87 doctoral theses in the field of physics education in Turkiye from past to present were examined in terms of theoretical framework and conceptual framework. In the study, the case study, which is one of the qualitative research approaches, was used and the obtained data were analyzed with descriptive method. As a result of the findings obtained, it was seen that all of the theses had at least one theoretical framework or conceptual framework, and instead of these two titles, five different titles were used: theoretical framework in 29 of 87 theses, conceptual framework in 18, introduction in 18, literature review in 15 and general information in 7. When the distribution of theses in terms of theoretical framework and conceptual framework was analyzed, 64 of the 87 theses were evaluated under the titles of conceptual framework and 23 of them were evaluated under theoretical framework titles. In addition, when the distribution of approaches, theories, models, strategies and methods used in the theses was examined, it was concluded that they were mostly accumulated in the learning-teaching, conceptual understanding, cognitive dimension and affective dimension categories.

In the post-pandemic period, as a result of digitally-surrounded learning environments in higher education institutions (HEIs), some obstacles are observed in learning procedures such as academic procrastination because of poor digital competences. Because of the limited research focusing on specifically digital competences and academic procrastination of students in the post-pandemic period where HEIs have been digitally transformed at an unprecedented speed in the literature, this study aims to identify undergraduate students' levels of digital competences and academic procrastination and to explore the impact of digital competences on their attitudes towards academic procrastination in higher education. In a quantitative research design, 521 undergraduate students were surveyed taking online classes from different departments in different universities in Turkey. Descriptive analyses and structural equation modeling (SEM) were performed on the collected data by using SPSS v26.0 and IBM AMOS v24.0. According to the descriptive results, it was revealed that the overall average of the perceived digital competence is moderate, the perceived digital competences in everyday life online participation and learning are also moderate, and the highest digital competence is the students' perception of hedonic e-citizenship while the lowest perception refers to digital creation skills, and the students' attitude towards academic procrastination is low. The SEM results indicated that the self-perceived digital competences negatively affect academic procrastination; in other words, as the level of self-perceived digital competences increases, students' attitude towards academic procrastination decreases. The results of this study contribute to filling the research gap in the field of higher education by providing significant implications to policy-makers, educational administrators, and faculty in universities.

Adversity quotient has an impact on students' success in living life. Students who are victims of bullying are no exception. The low adversity quotient of students who are bullying victims will impact the chaotic management of their lives, characterized by stress, depression, trauma, and even suicide attempts. Students bullying victims with high adversity quotient will be able to deal with bullying casually and have little impact on themselves. This study aims to describe the adversity quotient in students victims of bullying and analyze the differences in the adversity quotient of students victims of bullying between men and women. Data collection was from 66 students who had been victims of bullying in junior high schools in the city of Padang using purposive random sampling techniques. This study used a comparative quantitative research design. The instrument of this study is the adversity quotient scale. The condition of low adversity intelligence was discovered as a result of research. In particular, if decomposed according to its dimensions, low results are obtained on the dimensions of control, ownership, origin, and reach. But on the endurance of dimensions got high yields. Then, there is a difference in adversity intelligence between male and female students, where the adversity intelligence of women is higher than that of men. Thus, based on the findings of this study, schools should strive to increase the adversity quotient so that the effects experienced by victims of bullying in schools are reduced.
