IMPLEMENTATION OF TPACK-BASED LEARNING DESIGN ON THE ROTATING OBJECT CONCEPT

This study aims to implement a learning design based on technological pedagogical and content knowledge (TPACK) on the concept of rotating object. The research subjects were students of class XII IPA SMAK Santo Bonaventura Madiun. The data were obtained from observations and student test results in completing the concept of rotating object. This research is a development research. Mathematics is still considered a difficult subject by some students. For elementary and middle school level mathematics, it is still possible to deliver it based on students' experiences in everyday life. For the senior high school level, the concept of rotating object is difficult to imagine because it requires a higher understanding. Therefore, it is necessary to design learning that can provide direct experience to students. TPACK is learning that uses a combined application of an education system that prioritizes technology and certain applications (content) in learning. In implementing TPACK-based learning, there are several things to pay attention to, namely aspects of pedagogy, content, and technology. The findings of this study indicate an increase in student learning outcomes in the rotating object concep

How Far a School Program Build Students’ Character? A CIPP Model Evaluation

The overarching objective of this research is to investigate a private boarding school’s character education program. Stufflebeam’s CIPP evaluation model served as the basis for the research, which covered the study’s context, input, process, and product. After administering a questionnaire to 35 second-year students, we compiled the necessary data through in-depth interviews with the principal and three teachers. The questionnaire was explored quantitively using regression analysis with a statistical application called SPSS statistics-25. Meanwhile, thematic analysis was utilized to analyze the qualitative data throughout condensation, and regression analysis from SPSS result to be used to conduct a quantitative investigation of the questionnaire. The qualitative data was analyzed using theme analysis throughout the condensation process, beginning with description, progressing through reduction, categorization, and interpretation of data. The results showed that the school positively affected students’ character development through the combination of academic and extracurricular programming. Similarly, pupils felt like they were making headway. Having full support from the institution, even from alums, is a massive plus for character-building programs. In return, the school gains the same merit, boosting the favorable profile of students so that the communities may recognize the school’s characteristics. A reciprocal advantage in developing students’ character is available between the school and the pupils

THE THE ACTS OF KUALA LANGAT COMMUNITY LEARNING CENTER MALAYSIA TEACHERS TO OVERCOME LEARNING DIFFICULTIES AMONG STUDENTS

The study anticipates that this approach will lead to increased student engagement and activity in English learning, providing them with more opportunities to practice vocabulary and sentence structures within real-life contexts. By utilizing Flash Cards, students are expected to engage more actively in practicing various vocabulary and sentence structures, enhancing their English language skills. This research encourages teachers to integrate this medium into their classrooms, making lessons enjoyable, comprehensible, and innovative in bolstering students' vocabulary

THE ROLE OF TEACHERS IN TRANSACTIONAL AND TRANSFORMATIONAL LEARNING

The main focus of the research is to describe the main concepts of transactional learning and transformational learning. Research was carried out through literature studies, with data collection using a "thematic" or "conceptual categories" approach where the results of the study of various references were organized according to topics or issues. The results of the research show that in transactional learning, the existence of the teacher has complete authority, occupies a central position, has advantages and knows everything, while students are in a position of not knowing, and therefore learning is indoctrinative, top down, centralized, prioritizing intellectual aspects, success learning is measured on the knowledge mastered by students cognitively. Transformative learning places greater emphasis on social and cultural transformation in students, so that they have the ability and insight to face and solve problems. The existence of teachers in transformative learning is actually parallel to the existence of students. Teachers and students are learning subjects and the object is reality. Transformative learning places dialogue as the main method in learning, and therefore the existence of teachers and students learn from each other

MANAGING THE TEACHING COMPETENCE OF PART-TIME INSTRUCTORS AT ILOCOS SUR POLYTECHNIC STATE COLLEGE, PHILIPPINES

There is little investigation on the exposure of non-education part-time instructors to pedagogical experience in higher education and on practical support and opportunities for their professional development. This study examined the non-education part-time instructors’ level of competence in teaching tasks through the quantitative approach employing the descriptive-correlative design. The result showed that although there was a high competence in instructional preparation among the non-education part-time instructors, it found that there was moderate competence in constructing learning outcomes and in integrating them with learning activities. Similarly, the respondents also acquired a high level of competence in instructional delivery but showed a lower rating in the appropriate application of teaching methods during instruction. Although a very high competence in psychosocial support was recorded, results showed that their level of competence in assessment and feedback was high.  Still, they were found moderately competent in employing various assessment techniques. In correlating these variables with the respondents’ profiles, the four areas of teaching tasks were significantly associated with formal training, and educational attainment was significantly correlated to instructional delivery. It concluded that there is a need to provide a support mechanism through the adoption of the expanded program for non-education part-time instructors. &nbsp

Development of Interactive Learning Media Assisted by Lectora Inspire Application in Science Subjects Class IV SDN Baru 03 Pagi

Researchers and developers are hard at work on new learning media, one of which is the Lectora Inspire application media, to counteract student indifference in homework and a rising lack of incentive to learn. The study technique is based on the 4D development paradigm (Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate). The study's goal is to determine whether the media developed can be used and to collect data on how students react to the media. The goal of this study was to assess the performance of lecturers and professors serving as media and material validators, as well as students serving as respondents. Material experts validate 92.78% of the time, while media experts validate 91.78% of the time; expert teachers on average 85.00%; and students with an average of 89.52%. With the help of the Lectora Inspire software, it is clear that the potential for interactive learning media is enormous as a teaching tool
