Abstract

Demographic transition refers to the declining of birth and death rates and is followed by a reduction in population growth rates. This demographic change is caused by demographic factors (birth, death and migration) and non-demographic factors (social and economic). Fertility is an important factor in population control which refers to the demographic transition. As fertility in control, it is expected to solve population problems. Riau Province has a relatively low rate of fertility reduction from other provinces in Sumatra. This study aims to look at the effect of per capita GRDP, the number of working women and poverty on fertility in regencies / cities in Riau Province. This study uses secondary data with data from 12 districts / cities in Riau Province in 2010 - 2017. This study has independent variables namely per capita GRDP, the number of working women and the number of poverty people. The analysis technique used is panel data regression which is a combination of time series data and cross section. Based on the results of research carried out per capita GRDP, the numbers of working women and poverty together have a significant effect on fertility in Riau Province. And partially per capita GRDP and the number of working women have a significant effect on fertility in Riau Province. This shows that in fertility control, these factors need to be included in fertility control in Riau Province.

Abstract

This study investigated first grade primary school teachers’ expectations of children’s skills entering primary school in Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia. The aim of the study was to provide some reasons or beliefs that form teachers’ expectations regarding children’s competency and learning in their first year of primary school. The study was conducted using a qualitative approach which involved 30 first grade primary school teachers across Jakarta’s regions (Centre, East, West, South, and North). The Focus Group Discussion was used as an instrument that provides a forum for teachers to describe their expectations. The study employed the Ritchie and Spencer’s qualitative analysis framework analysis approach (1994) which involved five key stages: familiarization, identifying a thematic framework, indexing, charting and mapping, and interpretation. The results showed that expected academic skills, teachers’ competency, and educational policy were the key variables that informed teachers’ expectations. The findings of this study have demonstrated that it is crucial to support teachers professional development as their knowledge and expectation may greatly affect the way teachers treat their students.
