Miles, Huberman, and Saldana analyzed the data. Study shows that using Dayak in counseling helps teachers and students communicate. A harmonious connection determines the success of cross-cultural guidance and counseling in developing character. Dayak traditional expressions are often used by Dayak parents to advise their children; when used by Guidance and Counseling teachers, it's easy to grasp and quickly creates self-awareness for Dayak students to improve their behavior/develop character. For students of various ethnic groups, traditional Dayak expressions provide passion and critical power to find out the meaning in depth, so they create a mindset and viewpoint about the meanings and purposes contained in traditional Dayak phrases. The use of Dayak expressions is slowly allowing Dayak kids, who were first closed and sensitive due to misunderstandings with newbie teachers, to become open and familiar. Misconceptions can be prevented by translating verbal and nonverbal communications.

Learning in the twenty-first century is becoming more dependent on the use of digital tools and interactive media. Teachers play a crucial role in creating game-based learning procedures and enhancing learning and motivation. The aim of this article is to determine what kinds of expertise educators could require to effectively use game-based education (GBP). This study was done with 14 schools in East Java and their partner schools that took part in the GBP network initiative from 2017 to 2020. Two or three instructors at each school serve as the &quot;core participants&quot; who disseminate their knowledge to their colleagues. After collecting data via teacher documentation, theme interviews, and questionnaires, this research used qualitative content analysis to draw conclusions. The fields of pedagogy, technology, collaboration, and creativity were defined as the four key domains of competency. Researchers found that teachers' collaborative skills (whether intra-school or inter-school collaborations or networks with other teachers and key actors) were crucial to the success of the GBP's implementation. The findings may be used to improve pre-service and in-service teacher education and training, since teachers' game-based learning abilities will increasingly form an important part of their professional toolkits.

Both the external socio-economic, safety and health conditions, as well as the changes implemented by the education sector (reforms of the curriculum content and approach, the shift of educational development strategy and organizational structure paradigm, technological changes, pandemic restrictions, shortage of teachers) are changing rapidly in the world, which forces educational institutions to raise the awareness of the teachers' professional competence potential in new working conditions and move towards the training of highly qualified, competent and excellence-oriented teachers -- educational institutions have encountered the need to search for the most efficient ways to improve the quality and efficiency of the teaching process. Therefore, the goal of the study has been set to identify the teachers' professional development needs and the self-assessment of competences, determining the fundamental principles of efficient school administration. The research methodology is based on the theoretical research method (scientific and methodical literature analysis); empirical research method (survey of teachers in one of the comprehensive education institutions in Latvia); data processing and analysis methods. Analysing the data obtained in the study, it can be concluded that the factors influencing the teachers' qualitative and efficient professional development are the lack of a systematic approach in the country in general and the work overload. The teacher attends courses and seminars, but is unable to implement the acquired knowledge, insights and innovations in their daily work due to the lack of time, workload and responsibilities, as a result, teachers feel demotivated and are pessimistic about their future path in the profession.

Teachers are unclear how to adapt pedagogical techniques in digital play to enhance language development for young children in the digital era and with the changes in early childhood education. The purpose of this study is to analyze how teachers understand the development and teaching of early childhood language in early grades with digital game media and special references for early grade students. Qualitative, interpretative research is employed. The researcher picked a Surabaya primary school with digital technologies for the study's participants. Eight elementary school teachers were also included in the research. Teachers' interactions with students while utilizing digital tools were studied via the use of semi-structured surveys and focus group interviews. In addition, it was recorded that bystanders saw these exchanges. The data utilized in this analysis takes into consideration instructors' perspectives on the value of information communication technology (ICT) in early education, the benefits of digital play, and the potential of digital pedagogy to foster better language acquisition. The study found that instructors were amenable to digital play-based learning. Educators' knowledge of digital games' potential to assist primary language learning is limited. Since today's children are digital natives, many instructors feel video games may help them acquire a second language. More effort should be placed into producing games that incorporate digital language-learning tools. Results also demonstrate that using digital games in the classroom is current. Before completely understanding the benefits of digital play in language instruction, we need further research on teachers' viewpoints, digital literacy, and behaviors.

This study was designed to examine teachers' self-efficacy as a potential mediator to understand the relations between innovative school climate and implementation of cognitive activation strategies during instructional practice. The data of this study are derived from the 2018 Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) conducted by the OECD. This study was based on a sample of 2287 Korean teachers from 176 middle schools. Multi-level mediation analyses with Monte Carlo confidence intervals were used to measure within-subject effects at the teacher level (L1) and between-subject effects at the school level (L2). In this study, a 2-1-1 model containing a level-2 X variable and level-1 M and Y variables were designed. First, the author analyzed the relations between the variables and tested the mediation effect using the MLmed Macro for SPSS with robust standard errors (REM estimation). The results of multi-level mediation analyses were supportive of a hypothesized conceptual framework. First, the results show significant effects of the innovative school climate on the teachers' self-efficacy and implementation of cognitive activation strategies respectively at the school level. Second, the higher the innovative school climate, the more implementation of cognitive activation strategies, and this relationship were mediated by teachers' self-efficacy. Based on these results, the researcher suggested strategies for teachers to implement cognitive activation practices.
