Abstract

Students are unique entities with different characteristics to be paid attention to by teachers in the teaching and learning process. Teachers can teach their students based on their unique characteristics. Students’ learning style is one of the factors which will contribute toward students’ success in learning. This paper is aimed to identify and prepare information about students’ major perceptual learning style preferences and minor learning preferences. This research was conducted at State Institute for Islamic Studies (IAIN) Ternate towards 116 students of Shariah Department of academic year 2012/2013 who were chosen purposively as the sample of the research. The data of the research were elicited by using Reid’s (1987) Perceptual Learning Style Preferences (PLSP). The data were analyzed with descriptive statistics by using Microsoft Excel 2007. The findings of the research show that the students’ major perceptual learning style preferences were visual (mean = 40.2), and the minor perceptual learning style preferences were kinesthetic (mean = 37.0), individual (mean = 36.7), tactile (mean = 36.3), auditory (mean = 35.8), and group (mean = 33.9). The characteristics of students with visual learning style preferences are: (a) The students remember better when they read instructions; (b) The students understand better when they read instructions; (c) The students learn better by reading what the teacher writes on the writing-board; (d) The students learn better by reading than by listening to someone; and (e) The students learn more by reading textbooks than by listening to lectures.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of learning with abductive-deductive strategy on the achievement of mathematical reasoning abilities of high school students. It employed the experimental pretest-posttest with non-randomized control group design to the eleventh grade students of one high school in Pati, Central Java, Indonesia. Data were collected in the form of early mathematical ability categories (EMA) and overall. The results showed that the achievement of mathematical reasoning abilities that students acquire through learning with abductive-deductive strategy was better than that of the students who received were taught with expository learning. In more detail, only students in the medium category of EMA showed better achievement in mathematical reasoning abilities. Meanwhile, students of the upper and lower categories had the same achievements in their reasoning abilities. Based on the findings of the research, it is expected that teachers can encourage students to apply abduction and deduction strategy in order to achieve in mathematical reasoning abilities.

Abstract

The redesign of Indonesian teacher education is moving forward at a rapid pace and Indonesianteacher educators are now in a position to augment the top down reform efforts of the nationalgovernment with redesign efforts from the ground up. Redesigning the supervision of studentteachers by addressing local problems with local solutions is one way to do this. This articleshares the redesign efforts of three teams of faculty working at universities in the United Statesand explains how these efforts might be adapted to the Indonesian context. Since local expertiseis essential in redesign efforts, it is important that Indonesian teacher educators work togetherto create a mechanism for the redesign process. The redesign of Indonesian teacher educationis moving forward at a rapid pace as unprecedented changes occur at both the national andregional levels. The size of redesign is massive because of the large population, the size andnature of the geographic area, the diversity of land and people, and the number of private andpublic schools and universities. There are a number of resources available to undertake such alarge scope of work. Teacher educators who earned Ph.D.s at home and abroad bring a rangeof expertise to the challenge and a network of quality private and public universities exist.These institutions have prepared quality elementary school teachers in the past but undernew government mandates now have additional years to prepare teachers with the hopeof enhanced preparation and teacher quality.Despite reforms mandated from the highest levels of government, some familiarchallenges confront teacher educators at the local level. Salaries for both teachers andfaculty are low and resources are stretched thin because faculty members’ teaching andservice loads are heavy. The nature of the partnership between universities and schoolsposes some challenges. Additionally, while there is international support for facultypreparation and other forms of partnership not everything that works in other countrieswill work in the same way in Indonesia because of the much larger scale of reform.Given this unique blend of large-scale reform, limited resources, and limitationson the degree to which innovations in other settings can be transferred to Indonesia,Indonesian teacher educators need to consider their role in the redesign process. Whilegovernments design reform from the top down, teacher educators need to consider how todesign change from the ground up. To undertake this work it will be helpful for Indonesianteacher educators to redesign teacher education by piloting alternatives to traditionalsupervision. Teacher educators will want to consider the role of quality supervision in thepreparation of preservice teachers and will need to consider the importance of structureand culture in the redesign process.Key words: student teacher, preservice teacher, cooperating teacher, university supervisor

Abstract

Most migrant families living anywhere in the world, are concerned with maintaining their ethniclanguage, in order to sustain a sense of belonging to the country of their origin and enableextended family harmony. This study explores the survival of Sundanese language among eightIndonesian families of West Java origin (Sundanese speakers) living permanently in Melbourne,Australia. Most of these families migrated to Australia in the 1950s as Colombo Plan scholarsand unskilled labourers. Semi-structured interviews and home observations showed that, despitebelieving in the importance of Sundanese language in their diasporic life, speaking Sundaneseis the only practice that most of the participating parents, can do to maintain their language,alongside Bahasa Indonesia and English, to show they belong to the Sundanese culture. However,Sundanese language levels of politeness limit its use among their Australia-born second generation,making this ethnic language unlikely to survive. The young people only understand and copy afew routine words of greetings and short instructions. The study also suggests that the parentsneeded to be accommodative in order to maintain the Sundanese language by combining it withEnglish and Bahasa Indonesia.Key words: Sundanese language maintenance, Indonesian diaspora, parental advice and values

Abstract

The article presents the outcome of research on 30 books of Quranic interpretations for sura al-Ghasyiah, verses 17-26, which are strongly assumed to contain pedagogic meanings, concepts,and values that can be formulated into an instructional model. The research was conducted byanalyzing the keywords of the verses lexically, contextually, and hermeneutically. Then, themeanings gained were categorized, compared, contrasted, and abstracted, so that they wereeventually synthesized into a main idea as a hypothetical model, termed M-3 Model. Themodel consists of three main instructional activities, represented in the terms munazharah,mudzakarah, and muhasabah. The three activities are a mutually completing and supportingcycle for the achievement of various instructional objectives, ultimately to improve the abilityand skills of students to think systematically, logically, creatively, and innovatively throughthe development of potentials and fi trah (human norm). Specifi cally, munazharah activity isexpected to result in cognitivistic knowledge (ainal yaqin), mudzarakah to develop knowledge,experience, and values into faith-based knowledge (‘ilm al-yaqin), and muhasabah to encouragethe achievement of knowledge and values whose truths have been proven (haqqul yaqin), sothat they will be the driving force for various activities based on law, moral, and ethics.Because the model taught by God to human beings is still hypothetical and theoretical in nature,it is suggested that the model be empirically tested to be more valid.Keywords: Instructional Model, Munazharah, Mudzakarah, Muhasabah

Abstract

The implementation of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in higher education institutions plays an important role in realizing the competitive advantage, especially in the realization of the three pillars of higher education. In order for the implementation of ICT in higher education institutions to be effective, adequate support from infrastructure, human resources, and leader and organizational commitment is needed. The research focuses on and aims to describe the effectiveness of ICT implementation in student academic services, covering ICT policies and programs, ICT implementation strategies, ICT implementation, and the effectiveness of ICT implementation in student academic services. In addition, it attempts to formulate a hypothetical model of ICT implementation in student academic services. The research adopted the analytical-descriptive method through qualitative approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentary analysis. Afterwards, the data were analyzed through data reduction, data display, inference drawing, and verification. The research took place in Bandung Institute of Technology. The findings show that: The ICT policies and programs are based on the implementation of the three pillars of higher education (education, research, and community service); the strategies give emphasis on coordination patterns; ICT implementation in academic services is realized through e-learning (online, blended learning, video conference), academic information system, and digital library; the effectiveness of the ICT implementation is analyzed based on the realization of the program at the level of unit (decision-focused approach), performance achievement (goal-oriented approach), and student satisfaction (user-oriented approach) in terms of tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy. It is recommended that ICT implementation in academic services should be able to realize the competitive advantage of the implementation of the three pillars of higher education, which is in accordance with the institution’s vision, missions, and strategic goals, supported by the availability of infrastructure, human resources, funds, managerial and organizational commitment, and periodical evaluation and monitoring.

Abstract

Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) is considered essential to economic development and growth, with teachers and trainers’ major role.  Formal education and training have a positive impact on reducing poverty, as promoted by the Millennium Development Goal (MDG).  However, this paper argues that non-formal and informal education and training is an overlooked factor in poverty reduction and economic development and that the TVET sector and its actors are fundamental.  Current development policies and approaches need to pay greater attention to the role of non-formal and informal education strategies in development. While TVET is critical for economic growth and poverty reduction, operating only through formal and structured institutional [educational] or organizational [workplace] environments is insufficient. This paper explores the opportunities for non-formal educational strategies in addressing the needs of the informal economy. The paper specifically claims that teacher training must be focused beyond preparing teachers and trainers to operate more effectively in institutional or organizational formal learning settings. We need to engage more actively and effectively with how non-formal and informal education and training opportunities and approaches have the potential to enhance individual, community and society wellbeing and prosperity. Keywords.

Abstract

Achievement of squat long jump needs to be supported with several components that are divided into anthropometric elements and physical abilities. This study aims to determine the relationship and the extent to which squat long jump achievement can predict limb length, body mass index, body flexibility, and running speed. The subjects of this research were trained students of state senior high schools in Pekalongan Regency, with a total sample of 60 students. The independent variables in this research included limb length, body mass index, body flexibility, and running speed, whereas the dependent variables consisted of long jump and squat style achievement. The data were obtained through the test and measurement of each variable. This study used multivariate correlational method. Data were analyzed with normality test, linearity test, simple and multiple regression analysis, and hypotheses were tested with t-test and F-test. The results showed that limb length, body mass index, and flexibility had a positive relationship, whereas body mass index and running speed had a negative relationship with the squat long jump achievement. The prediction value of limb length was 0.027, body mass index -0.049, body flexibility 0.026, and running speed -0.234. The conclusion of this study is that there was a significant relationship among the variables, and limb length, body mass index, body flexibility and running speed can be predicted based on squat long jump achievement.
