Computational Thinking (CT) is the main skill of the 21st century that is increasingly attracting more researchers to study how to implement CT in the learning and teaching process. Among the CT tools that can be used to develop CT is programming. Currently, availability and easily accessible programming tools have led researchers and educators to explore how to introduce CT in the context of learning and teaching in schools. Recognizing the importance of implementing CT in the classroom, this study aims to develop the CT-S (Computational Thinking and Scratch) module for the Linear Motion topic. The type of this study is research and development research to develop modules based on the ADDIE model to produce the CT-S module with validity and reliability. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis. The result showed that the CT-S module was valid. It is eligible to be used as the instructional material of Physics. This study implies that computational thinking skills can be integrated with other subjects besides computer science like physics. Therefore, teachers can design lessons that are relevant to the context and students' characteristics.

Becoming a successful student is a dream of every student and parents. Learning style is one of things that might influence that success. This research intended to find out if there is a correlation between learning styles and learning achievement of students of FKIP Universitas Riau in learning English. 300 students were involved as the sample of the research. The research was conducted during the even semester academic year 2018-2019 and the research data was collected in June 2019. The instruments of the research were adapted from Vark Questionnaire Version 8.01 and students’ grades in their English class. Percentage and mean used to represent the frequency of data for descriptive analysis and inferential analysis was carried out. Since the data of students’ learning style and learning achievement obtained were not normally distributed, associative Kendall’s Tau-c correlation formula was used to find out the relationship between learning style and learning achievement. Based on the data analysis, it can be concluded that there is a relationship between the students learning style and their learning achievement.

Not all students have the ability to speak or to express opinions in public well, and not all students are able to engage in the learning process with a student centered approach. Therefore, the learning model with a student centered approach should still be juxtaposed with the considered percentage of lecture method (teacher cantered approach). This research aims to produce an Articulation learning model development oriented towards student activities. The data analysis was referring to the ISMAN model which consists of the stages: input, process, output, feedback, and learning. Based on the validity test to the validator, the Articulation development model is declared suitable for the Economics learning process. The students responses to the utilization of the Articulation development model obtained an average percentage of 88.62% in the category of very effective.

The learning process at SMP N 6 Tualang is not satisfactory due to the relatively low teacher's competence. Therefore it is necessary to improve teacher quality. The improvement made is the ability to use the learning model. One of them is the use of the Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) model through In-House Training (IHT) activities. The purpose of this study is to describe and explain how effective the In House Training activities for improving teacher skills in the application of the CTL model. This study involved all teachers of SMP N 6 Tualang. The researcher conducted a pre-survey to find out the learning process in the classroom. Observation, Pre-test and interview techniques were also used to collect data. Each cycle's pre-test and post-test showed better improvement in the teacher's ability to apply this model. The teacher's assessment in designing the lesson plan learning model CTL in cycle 1 shows the average teacher's ability of 75.62% (good), in the second cycle it becomes 90.57% (very good). The results of supervision from 70.05% (good) in cycle 1, to 82.40% (good) in cycle 2, and teachers felt positive benefits from IHT activities.

The problem that is often found in the field is that poorly trained students thinking critically because learning is still teacher-centered. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of using inquiry-based handouts on students critical thinking abilities. The design of this study was experimental design with pretest and posttest group control design methods. It was by looking at the students ability to answer the pretest and posttest question sheets that contain critical thinking indicators such as analyzing, synthesizing, connecting, concluding, evaluating, and creating. The results of this study show that the students critical thinking skills for the group given the handout showed that they met good criteria, that is the average score above 75. Meanwhile, students critical thinking skills in the class or group of students who were not given handouts were still not more than 50. From the results of the study it can be concluded that the handouts

This study is aimed at finding out the level of speaking anxiety experienced by a group of pre-service English teachers at a university in Indonesia and investigating the factors contributing to their speaking anxiety. Using cluster random sampling, this mixed-method research took 30 pre-service English teachers from the same class as the research participants. The data were collected through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The questionnaires were adapted from FLCAS (Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale) designed by Horwitz et al (1986). The result of the questionnaire shows that the students’ speaking anxiety is overall in the mildly anxious level. It was identified that there were six students (20%) in the level of very anxious, seven students (23%) in the level of anxious, 14 students (47%) in the mildly anxious level, one student (3%) in the relaxed level, and two students (7%) in the very relaxed level. The interview data indicated that the anxiety was likely because of several inter-related factors: social, linguistic, and personal factors. The social factors include fear of making mistake, feeling under pressure dealing with people, afraid of negative evaluation by teachers, worrying of losing face; the linguistic factor relates to students’ lack of English ability (grammatical issues, proper pronunciation, and vocabulary). While from the personal factor deal with issues such as low motivation and and family problems.
