Abstract

ABSTRACT: This study explored the attitudes of Zimbabwean primary school teachers towards the recently introduced Early Childhood Development (ECD) A and B classes, with the ultimate goal of assessing the acceptability, or otherwise, of the ECD. The survey research design was used to source data from 200 teachers comprising 100 infant and 100 junior teachers recruited from urban and rural primary schools. Overall, the study established that the majority of teachers (60%) in the study sample had a positive attitude towards the introduction of the ECD classes. There was no significant difference between rural and urban teachers but between infant and junior teachers. All in all, in the present writers’ view, the research outcomes from this study, indeed, hold promise for the ECD and tentatively provide mandate to the Zimbabwean government to go ahead with the idea of the ECD A and B classes. Based on these findings, the study strongly recommended that the Zimbabwean government should ensure that both human and material resources for the ECD classes are put in place urgently to capture, maintain, and increase the enthusiasm generated by its introduction.KEY WORDS: The attitudes, Zimbabwean primary school teachers, Early Childhood Development, and assessing the acceptability. About the Authors: Taruvinga D.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: This research is aimed at finding out the difference between the Mathematics achievement of the students taught using DELIKAN (Dengar, Lihat, Kerjakan or Listening, Looking, Doing) learning and those taught using Conventional one; the difference in Mathematics due to the difference in the level of motivation; and the interrelationship of Mathematics achievement as caused by DELIKAN learning, conventional learning, and motivation. This research was carried out in State Elementary School of Pasir Wetan and State Elementary School 2 of Kecila in the even semester of the academic year of 2009/2010. The method used was experiment with factorial design of 2 x 2. The population was the fourth year students of both Elementary Schools. Data was collected through multiple choice objective test and questionnaire to measure motivation. The result of the analysis showed that the there was a significant difference in the mathematics achievement of students taught using DELIKAN and those taught with conventional learning; there was not significant difference in mathematics achievement as a result of difference in motivation; and there was not significant interrelationship in mathematics achievement as caused by DELIKAN, conventional learning, and motivation.KEY WORDS: DELIKAN learning, conventional, motivation, Elementary Schools, and Mathematics achievement.  About the Authors: Sony Irianto and Karma Iswasta Eka are the Lecturers at the Faculty of Education and Teacher Training UMP (Muhammadiyah University of Purwokerto), Jalan Raya Dukuhwaluh PO Box 202, Purwokerto 53182, Central Java, Indonesia.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this research was to examine the influence of goal setting and mental imagery as two methods of psychological skill training on learning achievement of badminton motor skill. Fifty beginning female athletes at 10-12 years old (M = 10.8) from Bandung FPOK UPI Badminton School were divided into four experimental groups and one control group in random. Before getting the treatment, all groups carried out motor ability test, then all experimental groups were given following instructional about goal setting, mental imagery training, and badminton motor skill materials according to experimental condition in each group. It was hypothesized that shifting goal would more improve the development of high service and defensive clear skill than process goal, and mental imagery training would more enhance high service and defensive clear skill than without mental imagery training. The result of data computation by two ways factorial ANCOVA showed that goal setting and mental imagery training method given a significant main effect, but no interaction both of them. Furthermore, the result of means adjusted pair comparison analysis indicated that the effectiveness of mental imagery training influenced by goal setting but not vice versa. Mental imagery process of the mental imagery training group was significantly higher than without mental imagery training, and all experimental groups have a significantly learning achievement higher than control group.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: In conducting teaching, research and community service, academic staffs should weight more on quality than quantity. In this context, individual habit reacts to the demanded jobs which are influenced by his/her knowledge, attitude, and skill. University is an organization which based on science which is not overtly competitive. The competitive advantage should lie on academic staffs as the main resource. The statement correlates with the main function of a university as the main producer of human resources which is based on science and which shows its competitive advantage. This research is to analyze the influence of work behavior and work result towards work performance. Variables for behavior are knowledge, skill, attitude, and habit. For work result, the variables are quantity, quality, and timeliness. The research is conducted in USU (Universitas Sumatera Utara or Sumatera Utara University) with 312 academic staffs as samples. Questionnaires are tested thru reliability, criteria, construction and validity tests by using factor analysis method. Then, data is analyzed thru statistical Structural Equation Method (SEM). Such methodology is chosen due to the analysis which relates to the interrelationship amongst variables, indicators, and latent variables simultaneously. The result shows that there is a significant correlation between work behavior and work result aspects where behavior aspect correlates more than that of work result aspect. KEY WORDS: Work behavior, work results, performance, teaching, research and community service, academic staffs, and competitive advantage.      About the Authors: Dr. Ir.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: The educators have been redefining the goals of instruction and learning to include increased attention to high-level thinking skill. Mantel-Haenszel methods comprise a highly flexible methodology for assessing the degree of association between two categorical variables, whether they are nominal or ordinal, while controlling for other variables. The versatility of Mantel-Haenszel analytical approaches has made them very popular in the assessment of the DIF (Differential Item Functioning) of both dichotomous and polytomous items. The Mantel-Haenszel (M-H) procedure was originally used to Match subjects retrospectively on cancer risk factors in order to study current cancer rates (Mantel & Haenszel, 1959). The terminal objective of the study was to find out the impact of the number of score groups and the inclusion or exclusion of the studied item in forming score groups on estimating αs. Results indicated that: (1) fourth or more score groups yields stable α estimates with Mantel-Haenszel approach; and (2) the inclusion of the studied item is convergent to result in fewer items with significant chi-square values than the exclusion of the studied item in forming score groups. These findings seem to be consistent with the previous researches.KEY WORDS: Differential Item Functioning, Mantel-Haenszel method, bias, estimating, and inclusion or exclusion of the studied item.About the Author: Dr. Nabeel Abedalaziz is a Lecturer at the Department of Educational Psychology and Counseling, Faculty of Education UM (University of Malaya), 50603 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
