Abstract

This article is an analysis of narratives of young Indonesian Muslim women to explore their behavior and thoughts on being well-educated women in their chosen career path. It examines women’s thoughts on completing higher education and their lifelong study; whether pursuing a career or being a full-time mom. Having the capability to choose the career they want and implementing the beliefs of Islam’s teaching are attributed as their main responsibilities for being a real woman in this world and hereafter. The biographical interpretive method is engaged in this study to more deeply explain and explore the main idea selected. The research findings show that higher education allows women to become a new version of themselves. Obviously it can be said that education is the key for the next, better, future generations of Indonesia.

Abstract

Education has a critical role in the development of a new generation of individuals. It all depends on the constitutional frameworks and norms around which educational institutions and educational praxis are founded, and education is one of the tools to maintain national identity. The quality of education cannot simply be measured by the percentage of GDP spent on education. According to the World Data Bank, Tunisia spends 26.63 percent of its budget on education, while Indonesia spends only 20.50 percent. However, this does not guarantee that the quality of education in Tunisia is higher than in Indonesia due to the cultural and constitutional framework disparities between the two countries. The aim of this study is to compare the higher education curricula in Tunisia, which was developed from the French secular, or laicite, system, with that in Indonesia, which is founded on the ideology of Pancasila. Moreover, this study aims to analyze how the laicite system and Pancasila ideology have an impact on higher education curriculum design. The method used is a qualitative approach with a comparative case study analysis. Data was obtained from interview sessions with policy makers on curriculum as well as from the handbooks of curriculum in the Faculty of Culture at Indonesia University and the curriculum of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at Tunis University and focuses on the learning method and outcomes, as well as other journal and mass media pieces that are relevant. The data shows that disparities between constitutional frameworks and ideological contrasts between Pancasila and the laicite system have a significant impact on the religious component of the curriculum development process. In Tunisia, in particular, the curriculum has yet to achieve the government’s goal of developing critical consciousness. In Indonesia, the curriculum is based on the process model design, while in Tunisia, it is based on the product model design.

Abstract

The mothers’ role in bringing up children with developmental delays seems to be challenging. Problems when they decide to access occupational therapy to help their children’s development have been revealed. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the common complexities that mothers experience while taking their children to occupational therapy as a rehabilitation program to deal with developmental delays. As well, it also describes mothers’ personal efforts in tackling those complexities. Five semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight mothers and Colaizzi’s method was used to analyze the data as proposed by the phenomenological approach. The results reveal that mothers experience complexities when their children are diagnosed as having developmental delays. These include sadness and shock, panic and confusion, and guilt. Other difficulties include time management, cost demands, and support systems related to the therapy process. In tackling those complexities, mothers need to build their capacity for self-efficacy and self-empowerment as well as try to accept their children’s condition and to change habits as recommended by therapists. Not only describing the phenomenon, this study also analyzed some developmental screening tests applied in different countries to come up with new models of preventive actions in Indonesia.

Abstract

During the COVID-19 pandemic, both special and inclusive schools can implement the 2013 curriculum, the emergency curriculum, and the prototype curriculum. The prototype curriculum is a new opportunity because it focuses on developing students’ soft skills and character. However, it also challenges developing metaverse technology in its accessibility for students with special needs. This study uses a qualitative method with a literature study approach and content analysis techniques. The results were analyzed using Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of social practice. The research results show that the prototype curriculum in special schools or special education focuses on developing soft skills and students’ character. There is an opportunity for inclusive schools to be a fair arena for all students. If the development of metaverse technology increases the accessibility of students with special needs then the implementation of inclusive education will be achieved because in cyberspace everyone has the same equality and accessibility. The challenges faced by inclusive schools are government policies that have not implemented inclusive education thoroughly and evenly; the inclusive education curriculum which now has to adapt to the prototype curriculum; lack of facilities and infrastructure; teacher training that has not been maximized; lack of community understanding; and technical problems in the implementation of inclusive education.

Abstract

Twenty-one percent of young women married before the age of eighteen. Approximately 650 million girls and women are married before their 18th birthday (UNICEF, 2020, 2021). States member of the United Nations, through its Sustainable Development Goals, has committed to ending child marriage globally through laws, legislation, and other means. Though the practice of child marriage is declining globally, it remains prevalent in Africa and Asia, particularly in the Gambia. This study looks at the impact of child marriage on girls' education in rural Gambia and the factors that encourage it. The researchers conducted qualitative case study research through documentation, Focus Group discussion (FGD), observation, and interviews to collect data. The study's findings indicate that child marriage has negative impacts on girls' education in rural Gambia. This reveals the fact that the percentage of girls enrolled in schools, especially high school, is lower than boys. Girls also face more difficulties than boys to complete, retain and transit to secondary or higher education. This leaves them with no future and excludes them from social or economic advantages. The factors that encourage child marriage are included: religion, poverty, culture, lack of meaningful opportunity, older men's desire for younger women to marry, and the failure of law enforcement. These factors mentioned repeatedly perpetuate the practice of child marriage, and undermine the educational opportunities for the majority of girls in the Niani district of Gambia. Therefore, the researchers recommend that the Gambian government enforce the existing laws and regulations to protect children’s fundamental rights and put into practice the necessary regulations on the prohibition and elimination of this phenomenon.

Abstract

The high unemployment rate at the graduate level is a matter of concern. State Islamic Religious Universities (PTKIN) as a producer of scholars who have core religious values must be able to provide solutions to reduce the unemployment rate in Indonesia. The purpose of this study is to analyze how the curriculum implemented at PTKIN compares to the experience of PTKIN alumni at work to find out whether the needs of alumni have been met during lectures. The focus of analysis in this research is PTKIN campuses in Indonesia. The samples in this study were representatives of PTKIN with various accreditation scores of Superior (UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta), A (UIN Walisongo Semarang), and B (IAIN Salatiga) as well as alumni from each PTKIN. Through qualitative data analysis using Atlas t.i, it was found that there is still a gap between the curriculum that applies at PTKIN and the needs of the job market. Even though academic tools at universities are already available, alumni feel they have to learn on their own to gain the competencies needed according to the job positions they have. This finding provides a reference for the Ministry of Religion, PTKIN, and related agencies to produce a curriculum that better accommodates students’ competencies needed to do their jobs.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of mathematics modules based on problem-based learning to improve the reasoning ability of eighth grade students at Junior High School (SMPN) 2 Jumapolo. Reasoning ability is one of the goals of mathematics education, the problem is that the reasoning ability of eighth grade students in Indonesia, including at SMPN 2 Jumapolo, is still relatively low. The development of mathematics modules based on problem-based learning is expected to be a solution to overcome these problems. In this study, the mathematics module based on problem-based learning was tested on thirty eighth grade students at SMPN 2 Jumapolo. This research is quasi-experimental research with One Group Pretest Posttest Design. Samples were taken by cluster random sampling. Students are given a pretest to determine the students’ initial reasoning ability. The students were given treatment in the form of learning by using a mathematics module based on problem-based learning. After that, students were given a post-test to measure the students’ final reasoning ability. The data collection technique used in this study was a test of reasoning ability. The data analysis technique used was the paired t-test. Based on the results of the paired t-test, it was found that the students’ final reasoning ability was better than students’ initial reasoning ability. The students’ reasoning ability increased by 52.80 percent. This shows that the mathematics module based on problem-based learning was effective in improving the reasoning ability of grade eight students.

Abstract

A low level of scientific literacy and application leads students to believe in conspiracy theories (CTs). The purpose of this study was to analyze the accuracy of biology education students’ responses to CTs about COVID-19 and its association with their academic level. The population of this survey research was 134 students at the Department of Biology Education, from a private university located in East Java, Indonesia. The research sample included twenty students with the highest GPA (high academic group) and twenty students with the lowest GPA (low academic group). A CT questionnaire about COVID-19 was used as a data collection instrument. Less than half of the students correctly answered five of the eight CT questions asked. Only four CT items had a response accuracy above 50 percent. Spearman’s rho test revealed that there was no significant correlation between GPA and students’ distrust of CTs. Based on the results of the Kruskal-Wallis H test analysis, the GPA of high and low academic students was significantly different. However, Chi-Square analysis showed that students’ distrust of all CTs asked was not significantly associated with students’ academic level. Concerning the findings of this study, it is necessary for suggesting to reformulate the curriculum for science and biology education to improve the scientific literacy and information literacy of prospective teachers.
