The purpose of this study was to determine the description of the process carried out in the physics education study program on the lens material. The process skills used in this study are the methods used, namely measurement, measurement and measurement processes which consist of table data, data, and training, conducting experiments. Total sampling technique was choosen to recruit 91 students to participate in the study. They are contracted in basic physics practicum courses. The results show that physics students have done their own lab work in the learning process that has been incorporated into the good category. The science process skills that are most mastered in concave movement practices are observations with a percentage of 51.65% and have an average of 82.76. Whereas for convex lens practices are skills and data that have good categories with a percentage of 81.32% and have an average of 73.67.

One of the factors that influence the level of employability is the motivation to learn and social support. This study aims to determine the effect of motivation to learn and social support on student employability. The participants in this study were 255 students of class XII in State Vocational High School 1 Kalasan Yogyakarta, obtained through random cluster sampling. The data collection was carried out by using an employability scale, motivation to learn scale and social support scale. The data analysis used in this study was multiple linear regression analysis. Our data analysis shows that motivation to learn and social support have a very significant effect on employability, seen through the F test that obtained a score of 44.798 and a significance level (p) of 0.000 (p <0.01). In other words, the level of employability could be predicted based on students' level of motivation to learn and social support.

The basis of this study was to determine the relationship between internal locus of control and social support with students' academic procrastination in completing their thesis. This study is using correlational sampling technique and the research samples taken from quota sampling technique are 80 college students who are in the process of completing the thesis. The measuring instrument is the Academic Procrastination Scale in completing the thesis, Internal Locus of Control Scale and Social Support Scale. The regression analysis result that there is a very significant correlation between internal locus of control and social support with academic procrastination of the students in completing the thesis. Further analysis showed that there is a very significant negative correlation between internal locus of control with academic procrastination. This means that the lower level of internal locus of control, the higher level of academic procrastination in completing a thesis, and vice versa. Likewise, there is a very significant negative correlation between social support and academic procrastination in completing a thesis. This result means that the lower level of social support, the higher level of academic procrastination in completing a thesis, and vice versa.

Findings from a synthesis of technical assistance models and frameworks were used to code the use of 25 core elements of technical assistance in studies and evaluations of implementation interventions to affect program, organization, and systems change. The 25 core elements were group into five components: preparation for the provision of technical assistance, development of a technical assistance plan, implementation of technical assistance, evaluation of the effects of technical assistance, and sustainability of technical assistance-facilitated changes. Results indicated that a subset of 11 core elements was related to between groups and between condition differences in the sizes of effect for program, organization, and systems changes. Results also showed that more intensive technical assistance was associated with larger sizes of effects compared to less intensive technical assistance and that particular combinations of practices were associated with the largest sizes of effect.

In the implementation of educational practices, Indonesian is used as the language of instruction. Teacher candidates are prepared to have language competence as their knowledge in carrying out classroom learning. Important language competence is owned by a prospective elementary school teacher to facilitate communication with students and design learning about language. In an effort to improve material understanding and mastery of good language competence, prospective teachers in Primary School Teacher Education have constraints in the learning process in tertiary institutions that are identified based on 9 indicators. These indicators consist of curriculum, practicum activities materials/tools, books/modules, initial abilities of prospective teachers, learning resources from outdoor learning, learning resources from outdoor language learning, learning resources from indoor learning, learning environments, motivating teacher candidates, and the ability to judge yourself. This study uses a qualitative research approach. This study aims to analyze the constraints students face in Indonesian language competence. The sample in this study were students in Primary School Teacher Education with a total of 30 respondents. Data collection using interview and documentation techniques.

This study aims to determine the increase in ecoliteracy and creativity in waste utilization by using a project-based-learning (PBL) model in social studies learning. This research is a classroom action research (Action Research). The design of the action model used is the Kemmis and Mc model. Taggart. This research was conducted in the fifth grade (V) of Primary Schools. Data collection techniques used in the study were observation sheet, interview, documentation, and field notes instruments. The results of this study showed that there was an increase in ecolithicacy ability.Based on the results of the pretest conducted on December 17, 2018, it can be seen that students in Telajung 02 Public Elementary School have not had the ability of Ecoliteracy and students' creativity in utilizing waste. Of the 32 students, the highest score that can be obtained is only 40 from a maximum score of 100. While the lowest value obtained is 20 from a maximum score of 100. In the first cycle, around 63% of students classified as having high ecoliteration ability, 9% classified as having the low ecoliteration ability and 28% classified as having the very low ecoliteration ability. In cycle II, there was an increase, around 90% of students classified as having high ecoliteration ability, 6% classified as having the low ecoliteration ability and 4% classified as having low ecoliteration ability. The average value of ecoliteration ability in the first cycle was 87.6 and the second cycle increased to 78.2. In addition, students become more active in the learning process and more courageous in expressing their opinions. This shows that the ecoliteracy and creativity of students can be improved through the project-based-learning model.
