Abstract

While there have been several studies reporting teachers’ teaching practices for students with special needs, the inquiry on teachers’ motivation in the realms of Indonesian special education and English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teaching on the basis of their vision on themselves, consisting of their ideal, ought-to, and feared language teacher selves is still lacking in literature. Motivation has been arguably a crucial factor in the teaching-learning dynamics. This study aims to dissect two Indonesian special school teachers’ motivation in teaching EFL to students with special educational needs (SEN) as it potentially drives them to develop professionally. This study, then, is executed as a narrative inquiry by amassing data from two Indonesian female special school teachers through interviews. The discoveries exhibit several elements which might motivate Indonesian special school teachers to teach EFL to students with SEN, encompassing (1) inspirations beyond educational environments, (2) adjustments to the curriculum, and (3) misalignments between the nationally administered curriculum and their teaching implementation. The aforementioned elements also accentuate how the diverse needs of students with SEN influence teacher motivation. In light to the inquiry, several recommendations are proposed for further studies.

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has gained significance attention among educational scholars since it helps transform and advance the way education is delivered, making it more efficient, personalized, and accessible for all students. However, the extent to which the use of AI technology is demanded in the education sector requires further review among the existing literature. This study examines the demands of Artificial Intelligence (AI) integrating software in the context of Industrial Revolution 6.0 and its impact on education. The Technology Acceptance Model serves as a basis for investigating how individuals adopt and use new technology. A descriptive method and a qualitative research approach were used to review and synthesize emerging concepts related to the demands of AI integrating software in education. The findings suggest that AI integration can enhance personalized learning experiences and optimize resource allocation for students and educators. However, privacy concerns, bias, and ethical considerations must also be taken into account. The demands of Industrial Revolution 6.0, such as technical skills and global competence, require a focus on critical thinking, creativity, and lifelong learning. To leverage technology and innovation while fostering a culture of innovation, a holistic approach that includes project-based learning and professional development is necessary. Adapting to the demands of AI and Industrial Revolution 6.0 has significant implications for teaching methods and ethical considerations and is crucial for preparing students for the future workforce.

Abstract

The phenomenon of filter bubbles on social media disrupts a comprehensive understanding of Pancasila and triggers opinion polarization that threatens national unity in Indonesia. This study aims to examine the development of research related to the filter bubble phenomenon by utilizing a meta-analysis literature study method. The data sources used are Google Scholar, with the application Publish or Perish to identify research trends. Further, novelty analysis of the research was conducted using the VOSviewer application. The search was conducted on international journal publications indexed by Google Scholar using the keywords "filter bubble, social media" from 2013 to 2023, and a total of 985 articles were found. Findings indicate that publications related to this topic have seen a relatively high increase from 2013 to 2023, suggesting a potential trend for increased research interest in the coming years. From the data obtained, results indicate that there are several interesting topics as research novelties, including filter bubbles on social media and their implications for the distortion of understanding Pancasila's character. The implications of the Filter Bubble phenomenon on the understanding of Pancasila's character create significant challenges in efforts to build strong national awareness and identity in Indonesia. Filter bubbles narrow access to information, potentially reducing a comprehensive understanding of Pancasila and triggering opinion polarization that threatens national unity. Further research is needed to examine the mechanisms of filter bubbles and mitigation strategies to strengthen understanding of Pancasila and build inclusive national solidarity. Additionally, this article is also important as a source of data for the development of research on the topic of filter bubbles.

Abstract

The United Nations' global call for inclusive and equitable quality education has promoted many developing countries including Nigeria to focus on improving the quality of education. This has led to growing recognition of pivotal roles teachers’ quality play in ensuring high-quality teaching and instruction in the classroom. Therefore, this study examines the determinants of teachers’ effectiveness and their effects on students learning optimization in primary and secondary schools in Lagos State, Nigeria. A correlational research design was used for the study. Simple random sampling was used to select 480 respondents. Data were collected using questionnaire titled: Teachers Effectiveness and Students Learning Optimization (TESLO).   Descriptive statistics, T-test, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Pearson Moment Correlation were used to analyse the data collected. Instructional planning/delivery was found to be the foremost factor that determines teachers' effectiveness.  There was a significant difference in the effect of different determinants of teachers’ effectiveness on students' learning optimization (ANOVA at P 0.05). Correlation between teachers' age and teaching effectiveness was determined using Pearson Moment Correlation, the result showed that age has a positive correlation with teachers’ effectiveness (at r = 0.00). Students' learning optimization can be enhanced through instructional planning and teachers’ professional development. Instructional planning should be prioritized in teacher professional development programme. Teachers should individualize instruction, and modify their curriculum, teaching methods, and resources according to students' needs and questions to create a more effective learning environment for their students.

Abstract

A pleasant learning environment enhances students' motivation and participation in the learning process. As a pedagogical tool, humor helps enhance motivation, increase student engagement, and create a positive and enjoyable learning atmosphere. The research aims to uncover research trends on humor in learning, strategies, and the impact of using humor in learning. To achieve this objective, this study utilizes the systematic literature review method from two databases, namely Eric and Springer. The results of the bibliometric analysis-based research reveal that the research trends on humor in learning from 2019 to May 20, 2023, indicate an average of 5.3 publications per year. Research on humor in learning is conducted in countries such as the United States, Turkey, Germany, Taiwan, Dardania, France, Hungary, Indonesia, Iran, Italy, Japan, Romania, New Zealand, and South Africa. No standardized strategies for using humor in learning were found.  Nevertheless, the use of humor must be adjusted to the students' cultural backgrounds, selected at the right time, integrated into the curriculum, and may utilize media such as humorous images and videos. The use of humor in teaching has positive impacts, such as increasing student engagement, confidence, critical thinking skills, teacher-student relationships, and learning motivation. However, inappropriate humor can disrupt the learning process, increase negative bias, and create discomfort and negative perceptions among students.

Abstract

The existence of inconsistencies in the results of primary research on the effectiveness of the Discovery Learning model on students' ability to understand concepts and mathematical reasoning encouraged researchers to conduct research that aims to examine the differences in the effect of the discovery learning model on students' ability to understand concepts and mathematical reasoning as a whole as well as in terms of educational level, sample size, and research demographics. This test was conducted using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) with a meta-analysis method to obtain more comprehensive conclusions. Through testing on 41 primary studies, it was found that the implementation of the Discovery Learning model had a significant effect on the mathematical concepts understanding abilities as a whole. The study characteristics of the educational levels and research demographics lead to differences in the effect of the students' mathematical concept understanding abilities, with the highest effect at the junior high school education level and the demography of the research islands of Bali and Nusa Tenggara. However, the study characteristics of the sample size did not show any differences in the effect. In addition, it was also found that the implementation of the Discovery Learning model had a significant effect on the mathematical reasoning abilities as a whole after testing 45 primary studies. The study characteristics of the sample size led to differences in the effect of the students' mathematical reasoning abilities, with the highest effect on a sample size of less than 30 students. However, the study characteristics of educational levels and research demographics did not show any differences in the effect. Thus, the results of this study imply that educators can implement the Discovery Learning model as an effort to improve students' mathematical conceptual understanding and reasoning abilities.

Abstract

Although the provision of egalitarian education in a multicultural context is deemed fundamental, this field has not received considerable concern. Using a systematic literature review and meta-analysis, this study aims to review 44 articles on multicultural context equity education from the Scopus database between 2013 and 2022, which include the following five research problems: (1) the number of publications and the geographical distribution; (2) authors making the most significant contributions; (3) articles having the greatest influence on the field of equity education in multicultural settings; (4) research methodology; and (5) perceptions and attitudes toward equity education in multicultural context. The findings reveal that the United States is the predominant source of all publications. While the most significant articles are from the United States, one of the most prolific authors is from China. Almost all of publications employ qualitative research method and are descriptively analyzed. Observations, interviews, document analysis, and questionnaires are frequently applied instruments. To mitigate this predominance, prospective research might adopt mixed-method approaches that integrate the profundity of qualitative analysis with the generalizability inherent in quantitative studies. Scholars believe that the issue of the number of minority groups who face challenges to engage in the education sector must be addressed. Therefore, policies that ensure diverse communities receive an equitable education are essential.

Abstract

Since its recognition as a World Intangible Cultural Heritage by UNESCO, it is pivotal to preserve Gamelan musical instruments by introducing them to the younger generation; one of which is through teaching such Indonesian traditional musical instruments at schools. However, in practice, Javanese Gamelan learning in schools is often neglected, among other things, due to the lack of teacher knowledge, limited facilities, and lack of support from the school. The purpose of this research is to explore the concept of techno-pedagogy as an alternative teaching approach that can be developed and applied by teachers in Javanese traditional Gamelan music classrooms at secondary schools in Indonesia; utilizing technology and information media to ease students’ learning. This qualitative research was carried out by collecting data from interviews, document analysis, and review of previous literature related to the current purpose. Three participants (two experienced music teachers and one lecturer) were involved. The data obtained were then analyzed using qualitative coding techniques. The findings of this study demonstrate that the concept of techno-pedagogy provides teachers with the necessary abilities and resources to deliver Gamelan teaching in a more effective way and in accordance with the needs of today's students. By combining modern technology with a pedagogical approach, teachers can make the learning experience more engaging and accessible and allow students to explore Gamelan through interactive platforms such as M-Learning The results imply that teachers should adapt their teaching strategies to different learning situations to engage students effectively; particularly through the techno-pedagogy approach.
