Abstract

Around the globe, non-anglophone universities and higher education institutions (HEIs) are trying to internationalize providing students with opportunities to take non-language courses in a foreign language. The usual medium of instruction is English (EMI), which has become a global phenomenon. This paper aims to examine a macro-level university and HEIs’ policy on implementing non-language courses in four largest and oldest Croatian universities and their constituent units. Examining public records of the universities and HEIs, this study will research types and levels of study programs, operationalization of language medium instruction, policy implementation and curriculum evaluation. Since English/Language for Specific Purposes (ESP/LSP) courses can be perceived as preparatory courses for EMI/LMI, types, (non)obligatory nature and workload of ESP/LSP courses taught at the examined HEIs will be studied. The research showed that ESP courses are mostly taught as obligatory courses at the undergraduate level and occasionally as optional courses at the graduate study level. The highest workload of LSP courses is recorded at the HEIs from the Social Sciences fields and the lowest from the Natural Sciences fields, which consequently results in those HEIs (not) offering study programs in a foreign language.

Abstract

This research aims to examine the importance of economic education in a family environment based on local culture in an effort to increase family economic resilience. In the context of globalization and social change, families need to understand and adapt to economic principles that are relevant to everyday life. Local culture provides a strong foundation for shaping family economic thinking and behavior. One of the key aspects of family economic education is the development of economic literacy and good economic behavior. This research uses the PRISMA 2020 systematic literature review method, utilizing Scopus and Google Scholar as research databases, with search results obtaining 239 articles (Scopus = 39 articles with a time period of 2018–2022, and Google Scholar = 200 articles with a time period of 2018–2022). Then, selection and evaluation are carried out to obtain relevant articles. Meanwhile, data collection uses a systematic review by analyzing research manuscripts obtained from Google Scholar that have been indexed nationally and internationally in the last five years, which aims to answer research questions by summarizing various research results. In facing modern challenges, the existence of the traditions of the Kajang Tribe applies the principles of Tallasa Kamase-masea and Pasang as a strong foundation in all aspects of human life. Apart from that, these traditions also become the pride and identity of the Kajang Ammatoa indigenous people, strengthening the continuity of their culture in an environment that continues to develop. Based on the research results, it was found that economic education in the family acts as a catalyst to increase the family's economic resilience.

Abstract

Reflective journals are used as self-reflection tool to improve the quality of learning. Students can record their learning process through reflective journals so that they can find out their strengths and weaknesses while studying and are able to choose the right strategy to improve their learning, especially in learning to write explanatory texts. This study aims to describe the role of reflective journals in monitoring the writing process of explanatory text. This type of research is quantitative research using correlational methods. A total of 63 students were randomly selected to work on writing tasks which were monitored using reflective journals. Their responses indicated that reflective journals influenced their motivation, self-confidence, and improved learning. They feel the value and comfort of using a reflective journal while completing writing assignments. This result is directly proportional to the statistical test performed. By using the product-moment correlation test, it shows that the relationship between the reflective journal variable and the ability to write explanatory text is significant and very strong based on the correlation value, namely: 0.828. The use of reflective journals affects the ability to write explanatory texts by 68.6% and the remaining 31.4% is influenced by other variables. These results indicate that reflective journals play a very important role in monitoring the writing process. The role of reflective journals in writing, namely: as a means of self-reflection, a guide as well as a means of recording writing experiences; as a tool to cultivate metacognition and cover up weaknesses in writing; as a tool to increase awareness about cognition, tasks, and self in writing; as a guideline for using the right strategy in writing because they know their strengths and weaknesses in writing; as a tool to organize learning in an effort to complete writing assignments; and as a tool that forms a habit of writing, starting from planning, setting goals, and proper strategies for completing tasks.

Abstract

Education is a long-term investment in human resources and aims to produce quality generations. One way to guarantee the achievement of this goal is to require standards for facilities and infrastructure that schools must have and how to manage this, because there are still many schools that don't know about it, plus there are inadequate facilities, which creates a quality gap between schools themselves. So this research aims to describe the concept of management of facilities and infrastructure in schools. The method used is a literature study with a descriptive qualitative approach, then the relevant content is analyzed and conclusions are drawn. The results of the research show that the concept of infrastructure management in schools includes 3 important things, namely the planning concept, then the procurement concept which consists of purchasing, self-manufacturing, renting, borrowing, receiving grants, exchanging, recycling, and repairing, finally the regulatory concept which consists of inventory, storage, maintenance, and use. The hope is that these concepts can optimize the educational process and make learning in schools more effective and efficient.

Abstract

Understanding the implementation of Differentiated Instruction is crucial, especially where Islamic high schools adopt a distinct educational approach in implementing the Emancipated Curriculum, making it essential to understand the nuances of this approach to enhance student learning outcomes effectively. This study investigates the aspects and strategies applied as well as the problems faced by English Teachers of Islamic Senior High Schools in implementing differentiated instruction. A descriptive qualitative study was utilized through semi-structured interviews with five English teachers from different schools and document analysis of the teachers’ lesson plans. The process of thematic analysis involved coding and categorizing the answers from the participants into themes, which were then compared with the document analysis and interpreted. The findings indicated that all aspects have been applied in the implementation of differentiated instruction including content, process, product, and learning environment. Diverse strategies were applied, such as presenting materials in different forms, implementing collaborative projects, peer tutoring, adapting Islamic stories and histories, etc. However, the teachers faced problems in managing time, selecting relevant materials, developing distinct assessment rubrics, etc. This study contributes to the understanding of the implementation of differentiated instruction in English language learning, in the context of Islamic secondary schools by providing practical strategies and adding insight into existing literature. The study suggests that implementing differentiated instruction with all its aspects and teachers can adapt various strategies to cater to diverse student needs.
