Abstract

ABSTRACT: The main concern of this research is to develop a teaching model which can promote students’ vocabulary knowledge, especially the qualitative knowledge of the technical vocabulary. The problems underlying the research is that, despite its significance in language learning,  vocabulary is methodologically neglected.This is especially true to the teaching of teachnical words. On that basis, this study sets out to generate a teaching model which is effective in boosting students’ qualitative knowledge of technical vocabulary through a set of learning activities commensurate with the curricular requirements, namely, which deems language as a means of communication, which puts students in the core of all concerns and activities, and above all which is applicable for any classroom settings. Another result shows that despite its curricular demand, vocabulary is not taught by the teachers, while the teaching practice for other language areas is still dominated with the teacher-centered activities. The validation test results in significant finding: the model proves effective in evolving students’ qualitative vocabulary knowledge in the experimental class. In other words, the model is effective in teaching the Indonesian technical vocabulary.KEY WORDS: integrative, model, technical vocabulary, qualitative knowledge, and quantitative knowledge.About the Author: Dr. Furqanul Aziez is a lecturer at the Muhammadiyah University of Purwokerto (UMP) in Central Java; and also at Pasundan University (UNPAS) in Bandung.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: Conflicts among family members, among different groups in the community, and among nations continue to escalate, threatening the survival of the human species. The Philippines is not an exception to these atrocious realities. In this case, Mindanao has experienced one of the most violent armed conflicts in the history of the Philippines. A series of armed confrontations between the government and various Muslim separatist groups have placed the civilian population at the mercy of conflicting parties. Various government programs and projects were initiated to address the problem of war and violence in Mindanao. The study is an attempt to evaluate an existing community-based peace-building program with the aimed to draw out insights on what kind of program suitable for culturally diverse communities that experiences protracted social conflict. The researcher recommends exploring other indicators not included in this study in order to draw out more insights on the dynamics of peace building at the grassroots level.KEY WORDS: conflicts in the Philippines, government programs and projects, community-based lifelong education, and grassroots level.About the Author: Prof. Serafin A.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: Exercise is a beneficial and efficient way to improve one’s health status. Numerous studies have looked at both the physiological and psychological health benefits of physical exercise, however, studies that examine the relationship between exercise and psychological health, specifically on anxiety, report ambiguous findings. This paper, a qualitative study, diminishes the ambiguity by explaining the relationship between aerobic exercise, trait anxiety, and state anxiety. Four female participants engaged in an aerobics exercise class in Bandar Baru Bangi, Selangor, Malaysia, they were all employed women working within the town. The participants ranged from 25 to 55 years of age, with an average age of 40. It was found that trait anxiety moderated the effect aerobic exercise had on a woman’s state anxiety level following aerobic exercise. Women with a higher level of trait anxiety reported a lower level of state anxiety following exercise when they participated in more hours of aerobic exercise per week. On the other hand, aerobic exercise had little effect on state anxiety levels in women with low trait anxiety levels.KEY WORDS: psychological health, state anxiety, trait anxiety, aerobic exercise, and women at work.    About the Authors: Mastura Johar, M.A. is a lecturer of UNITEN (Universiti Tenaga Nasional); Rozita Abdul Latif, M.A. is a lecturer of UiTM (Universiti Teknologi MARA); and Prof. Madya Dr. Mohd Sofian Omar Fauzee is a lecturer of UPM (Universiti Putra Malaysia).

Abstract

ABSTRACT: It is universally acknowledged that learning a second/foreign language, e.g. English, since early childhood would contribute positively to the child’s language acquisition. Native-like pronunciation is one of the favored results gained from this process. This assumption is strongly supported by the Critical Period Hypothesis i.e. a biologically determined period of life when language can be acquired more easily. However, many studies indicate that “the younger the better” in learning English is not necessarily true. Native-like pronunciation and proficiency have been found to be acquired by a learner who started learning English in his adulthood. In regard to this matter, this paper attempts to review a belief “the younger the better” in learning English in the Indonesian context by looking at issues related to optimal age, factors contributing to the success of L2 acquisition, and current practices of teaching English to Young Learners (TEYL) in the Indonesian context.  KEY WORDS: second language, teaching English to young learners, critical period hypothesis, optimal age, psychosocial context, and learning condition.About the Author: Ika Lestari Damayanti, M.A. is a Lecturer at English Department, Faculty of Art and Language Education (FPBS), Indonesia University of Education (UPI) in Bandung.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: Transfer of culture from one generation to the next generation takes place in every period. This is an educational process in which knowledge was inherited to several groups of society within one particular country. The knowledge then becomes cultural heritage that will be used by the society. Indonesian art education is divided into traditional art education and modern art education. Despite the differences between the two, the transfer of Indonesian culture’s values occurs in both processes. In general, art education is a processing media of cultural heritage in the context of individual development towards a socially and culturally whole human being, since art develops creativity and sensitivity for different, ever-changing aspects of life, such as the culture and the changes within the society. Art education is considered as a process of cultural inheritance and human development – a creative process that functions as an agent of change for culture.KEY WORDS: cultural heritage, educational process, art education, and transfer of Indonesian culture’s values.About the Author: Dr. Nuning Damayanti Adisasmito is a lecturer at the Faculty of Fine Art and Design, Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB), Indonesia.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: Since last ten years, it becomes indispensable to talk about constructivism in relation to the teaching and learning process. Yet the term of constructivism is still not well defined and contradicts. Generally constructivism refers to a set of views about how individuals learn and about how those who help them to learn ought to facilitate, which in this paper referred as Constructivist Learning Account (CLA). CLA holds an assumption that learners actively construct their own sets of meanings and understandings; knowledge is not a mere copy of the external world, nor is knowledge acquired by passive absorption or by simple transference from one person (educator) to another (a learner or knower). Clearly, knowledge is constructed not acquired. CLA also stresses that we cannot be certain that any two individuals will construct the same understandings. Even if they use the same linguistic formulations to express what they have learned, their deep understandings might be quite different. Hence, a better understanding of constructive learning accounts as a component of a long life learning process and how teacher education programme should engage with it is needed to create a meaningful learning environment.KEY WORDS: Constructivist Learning Account, knowledge is constructed, and meaningful learning.    About the Authors: Dr. Fadzilah Abd Rahman, Dr. Habibah Abd Jalil, and Dr. Aminuddin Hassan are lecturers at the Faculty of Educational Studies, Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM), 43400 Serdang, Malaysia.
