Schools with ecological architecture insight contribute to the surrounding environment, which has an impact on developing the character of students, such as increasing awareness of a sustainable environment. Therefore, the aim of this research is to examine whether the vocational high school in South Tangerang City, which is labelled as Adiwiyata (ideal environment) at the national level, has incorporated the principles of ecological architecture that take into account the surrounding environment, human movement, road circulation, drainage system, and noise level. In addition, this study also aims to explore whether the inculcation of character education has been implemented in habituation activities in schools. The research employed a case study research design, where the unit of analysis under study was one of the public schools in South Tangerang City, which had received a national-level Adiwiyata school award. Direct observation and interviews were used to gather the data. Interviews were conducted to the school principal, heads of study programs, teachers, and 24 students. This study revealed that the principles of ecological architecture principles were adhered in this school. In addition, the findings indicated that character development through character education is incorporated into all subjects as well as into well-executed routine activities, like the activity of “laskar hijau” (the green army), which teaches pupils to appreciate and maintain a beautiful school environment as a means of developing a sense of environmental responsibility.

Being Willing to Communicate (WTC) in English is significant since communicating in another language is considered to be a crucial part of learning a foreign language. Without it, the students only learn English in a passive way. This study, therefore, aims to explore the Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) to investigate the Willingness to Communicate (WTC) in English of EFL learners. This research uses mixed methods, especially Embedded Design, to explore CLT and investigate WTC in English of EFL learners. Qualitative analysis begins this research through observation and interviews. The results of both are then strengthened by the results of quantitative analysis through the questionnaire. It was found that there were various communicative activities implemented by the teacher. Those are effectively conducted by the teacher to promote communicative language teaching in the classroom. Another finding is that there are six WTC patterns, and the pattern of voluntary participation in class activities has the highest percentage of occurrences. The conclusion that can be drawn from this research is that the willingness to communicate (WTC) in English for EFL learners is regarded as high or very willing.

Mathematical Literacy ability has important for prospective mathematics teachers. It is closely related to Computational Thinking (CT). The aim of this study is to produce CT-students worksheets to improve the mathematical literacy of prospective mathematics teachers. The development study using model ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation). Thirty-seven would-be maths teachers participated in the study's sixth semester. Subject criteria are students who are not familiar with CT. The instruments in this study were CT-based student worksheets, validation sheets, student response questionnaires, pre-test and post-test questions. The results showed that CT-based student worksheets met the criteria of valid (validity percentage of 84.5%), practical (practicality percentage of 88.68%), and effective (N-gain value of 46.91%). Based on these results, it's appropriate to conclude that CT-based student papers can help students who want to become math teachers learn more about math.
