DEVELOPMENT MODEL OF MATHEMATICALS LEARNING IN PRIMARY SCHOOL TO FORM HONEST CHARACTER. 1Ramlan; 2Achmad Sanusi; 3Abdorrakhman Gintings; 4R. Supyan Sauri
Teachers in primary school have mathematics knowledge that potentially can build a character, but the fact shows
that they still couldnât implement it in learning process. Teachers donât have a valid guide; this is why they couldnât
implement it. Therefore, a development model of mathematics learning that can shape the elementary school
childrenâs characters is necessary. This study uses a qualitative approach with a hypothetical-theoretical models
method, which aims to find the development of learning models that are valid and proper to be used by teachers.
This study found a mathematics learning model in elementary schools, especially to shape an honest and fair
character, through these stages: planning, implementation, and assessment of learning outcomes. At the learning
planning stage, the teacher chooses mathematical topics related to the student competence in understanding
definitions, because learning definition in mathematics is closely related to habituation learning so that they will
always obey the rules and system that have been agreed upon. At the implementation learning stage, students will be
given stories that are based on real life events about honest behavior by using a delightful audio-visual media
related to the mathematical topics which will be studied. Afterwards, they will be given knowledge or understanding
of mathematical formulas, and to solve mathematical questions skills using these formulas in a form of honestïżœthemed stories. To conduct an indicative assessment of students who are being honest or not, the teacher will
provide mathematical questions in a form of stories that relate to students' attitudes and actions, as a result of
honest or dishonest behavior.

River basin planning project: social learning (Science Report SC050037/SR1)
This report documents the findings of a 12-month Environment Agency science project on social learning for river basin planning. Our aim was to use social learning approaches and soft system methods to inform the development of the River Basin Planning Strategy and improve the effectiveness of the Environment Agency's Water Framework Directive (WFD) Programm
IT Politics in the Domain of Knowledge Workers: A Chronological Analysis
Markusâs study of IT politics has been influential for the IT implementation literature since the 1980s. However, mistakes of the top-down implementation approach could still be easily found in many organizations. Derived from Markusâs notion of interaction theory and Druckerâs work on knowledge workers, this paper illustrates a LMS (learning management systems) implementation case that evolves from such traditional top-down approach. Based on a chronological analysis, the case study narrates how IT politics was shaped in a context where most stakeholders were highly skillful knowledge workers whose academic autonomy was largely overlooked. Reflective discussion suggests how the implementation process might have been better managed. Evidently, even decades after Markusâs and Druckerâs influential work, history still repeated itself and IT politics continued to provide lessons for contemporary IT managers and researchers. Future strategy and implementation approach for campus IT projects and LMS implementation in particular are recommended

GPs are from Mars, Administrators are from Venus: The Role of Misaligned Occupational Dispositions in Inhibiting Mandated Role Change
Research on mandated occupational role change focuses on jurisdictional conflict to explain change failure. Our study of the English National Health Service highlights the role of occupational dispositions in shaping how mandated role change is implemented by members of multiple occupational groups. We find that tension stemming from misaligned dispositions may emerge as members of different occupations interact during their role change implementation efforts. Depending on dispositional responses to tension, change may fail as members of the different occupations avoid interactions. This suggests that effective role change can be elusive even in the initial absence of conflicting occupational interests

Shifting sands
The article presents the proposed changes to the New Zealand Draft Curriculum on the Nature of Science. In July 2006, the draft was released to school and the wider educational community for consultation on the national curriculum policy. It asserts to help science teachers to develop their understanding on nature of scientific knowledge and on how the community can effectively teach such aspects of the curriculum in the classroom setting
Education policy: process, themes and impact
Education policy is high on the agenda of governments across the world as global pressures focus increasing attention on the outcomes of education policy and on the implications for economic prosperity and social citizenship. However, there is often an underdeveloped understanding of how education policy is formed, what drives it and how it impacts on schools and colleges. Education Policy: Process, Themes and Impact makes these connections and links them to the wider challenges of educational leadership in a contemporary context
A Qualitative Study of Student-Centered Learning Practices in New England High Schools
In early 2015, the Nellie Mae Education Foundation (NMEF) contracted with the UMass Donahue Institute (UMDI) to conduct a qualitative study examining the implementation of student-centered learning (SCL) practices in select public high schools in New England. This study extends lines of inquiry explored through a prior (2014) project that UMDI conducted for NMEF. The 2014 study employed survey methodology to examine the prevalence of student-centered practices in public high schools across New England. The present study builds upon the investigation, using a variety of qualitative methods to further probe the richness and complexity of SCL approaches in use across the region. Specifically, this study was designed to address what student-centered practices "look like" in an array of contexts. The study also addresses the perceived impacts that SCL approaches have on students, staff, and schools. Additionally, it highlights the broad array of factors within and beyond school walls that reportedly foster and challenge the implementation of SCL practices. This study seeks to help NMEF understand the intricacies of SCL and provides strategic considerations for how Nellie Mae can promote the adoption and development of student-centered practices in the region.Nellie Mae organizes student-centered learning by four tenets: (1) learning is personalized; (2) learning is competency-based; (3) learning takes place anytime, anywhere; and (4) students take ownership.Specifically, the study addresses five research questions:What are the characteristics of student-centered practices in relation to the four SCL tenets? How are SCL approaches implemented?What are the salient contextual factors (e.g., systems, structures, policies, procedures) associated with the implementation of SCL practices? How do they support, impede, and otherwise shape the adoption, development, and implementation of SCL approaches?How are schools with moderate and high levels of SCL implementation organized to foster SCL practices? What mechanisms are in place to promote student-centered learning?What is the role of SCL approaches in schools and classrooms? In what ways, if at all, are they embedded in the goals and practices of schools and classrooms?What is the quality of SCL instructional practices in study schools? What relationships, if any, do administrators and educators perceive between these approaches and student learning
