DEVELOPMENT OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY IN THE PAI CURRICULUM

Education is a conscious effort to prepare students through guidance, teaching and/or training activities, as well as equipping students with knowledge for their future roles. Meanwhile, technology is the application of scientific knowledge and other sciences to solve practical problems. Thus science and technology cannot be separated. Science and technology are developing very rapidly along with the pace of development of society. Science and technology have a reciprocal relationship with education and the curriculum. Education and curriculum must be able to respond to the rapid development of science and technology, because education is an effort to prepare students to face a better future. Curriculum development for all subjects including Fiqh must be based on developments in science and technology. The development of science and technology directly has implications for curriculum development which includes objectives, materials, methods and evaluation. Technology has an important role in developing the Fiqh curriculum because Fiqh material must always be up to date with the conditions and needs of students. Fiqh learning must always be contextual to students' real lives so that its existence is always present and becomes a student's need.

Data showed that Instructors played multiple roles were observed in the whole study; their teaching style, use of different behaviour modification technique and other were come forth and performance of differently abled adults was increased.

The Modern Worldview and Islam's Perspective on Science

This research aims to analyze the Western and Islamic perspectives on science. From a Western perspective, science is often viewed as the outcome of objective scientific methods and empirical research. This approach emphasizes the use of reason and logic in developing knowledge. On the other hand, the Islamic perspective acknowledges the importance of scientific methods in acquiring knowledge but also emphasizes the spiritual and revelatory dimensions in understanding reality. In this study, we conducted a comparative analysis of these perspectives, examining the similarities and differences in the conceptions of science from both viewpoints. Literature studies and religious references were utilized to gain a comprehensive understanding of these perspectives. The research reveals that while there are differences between the Western and Islamic views on science, there are also significant points of convergence. The analysis results show that the Western perspective tends to lean towards a materialistic and secular dimension in understanding science, while the Islamic perspective integrates spiritual aspects and revelation in the comprehension of scientific knowledge. However, both perspectives recognize the importance of using scientific methods to obtain objective and verifiable knowledge. Additionally, both emphasize the values of ethics and responsibility in the application of scientific knowledge. This research provides valuable insights into the differences and similarities in the Western and Islamic perspectives on science. Its findings can be utilized to enrich the dialogue between the two traditions and promote a more inclusive and holistic understanding of science in multicultural and multireligious societies.

Science is a system obtained through the scientific method of research. The application of scientific knowledge can be found in various fields such as agriculture, medicine, pharmacy, and technology. The development of scientific knowledge in various fields is the role of the academic community. Community service is one of the three main duties of higher education institutions. Community service activities are carried out by conducting visits to Jember Lor 01 Public Elementary School in order to enhance young generations' knowledge of science through primary schools. The method used in community service is practice experience, which is a learning process that provides practical experiences to facilitate students' understanding of the subject matter. The practices conducted include telekinetic and lava lamp experiments using easily accessible materials. The practices are done in groups and accompanied by one person from the community service team. Based on the enthusiasm of the participants, this activity has been very beneficial in increasing the interest in learning about science from an early age. The synchronization of this community service activity with the natural science subjects is necessary to help students understand the theoretical lessons taught by teachers.

Analysis of the Ability of Islamic Banking Students of the Islamic Faculty of Economics and Business IAIN Lhokseumawe in Writing Skills of Scientific Papers

Scientific work is an integral part of the academic circle, because scientific work is the main task and is a prerequisite for all study programs and degrees. Scientific work is a benchmark for academics in the application of scientific knowledge. In final year students, there are still many of them experiencing problems when working on writing their final assignment, namely a thesis. This research was conducted to find out how the ability to write scientific papers, especially in writing thesis, among Islamic Banking students of FEBI IAIN Lhokseumawe who have finished taking research methods courses. The results of the research, students' ability to write scientific papers is described in three forms. First, the ability to write scientific article systematics as many as 73 students or 86% is categorized as good or able to write scientific article systematics. The remaining 13 students or 14% are categorized as needing guidance. Second, students' ability to write scientific articles. The contents of writing titles, author names, abstracts, research methods, and student bibliography are categorized as good because more than 75% can write. The rest, in preliminary writing, research results, discussion, conclusions and suggestions, students are categorized as needing guidance because only 25% can write well. Third, the ability to use Indonesian spelling. Several errors were found, which need attention, namely errors in capital letters, italics, periods, commas, and standard words. This error, because students do not read scientific papers, so that knowledge of the use of Indonesian spelling is still relatively lacking.

Abstract B014: The power of bidirectional learning: Bridging the gap between communities and scientists by promoting “inreach” and community-science bilingualism

Abstract Background: Medical mistrust and lack of clinical trial awareness are often cited as barriers to clinical trial enrollment for Black/African American and rural residents. However, our community needs assessment at the Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) Massey Cancer Center (MCC), identified a striking discordance: our community reported high awareness of clinical trials and willingness to participate, but this was in contrast to their abysmal participation in research and/or clinical trials. Given the role of misinformation in perpetuating communication barriers between researchers and the community, we sought to determine if targeting scientists’ communication led by community feedback would decrease the barriers between science and community. We did so by connecting two most distal groups: basic scientists from the VCU-MCC cancer biology (CB) program and lay community members from urban and rural under-resourced neighborhoods within MCC’s catchment area. Methods: CB program researchers shared 10-minute presentations of their work with urban (Petersburg) and rural (Brunswick) community members. Thereafter, 30-minute semi-structured focus group discussions with a subset of attendees were audio recorded and transcribed verbatim; results were summarized using thematic analysis. Notably, the racial/ethnic makeup of both counties are such that Black/African American is the majority with Petersburg and Brunswick counties having 60% and 20% less White, respectively. Results: Seven themes emerged: (1) relevance and application of scientific knowledge, (2) improve comprehension and salience, (3) interactive visuals to connect with audience, (4) community values science to improve quality of life (advancement & sustainability), (5) authentic dialogue is critical for building trust and mutual learning, (6) there is limited knowledge of cancer biologists role, and (7) actionable steps that impact the cancer care continuum. Both urban and rural participants expressed an interest in understanding the application of the presented scientific knowledge to the lives of people that share aspects of their salient identities. A participant from the urban sample said, “… I would’ve loved to have had more knowledge on Black women, uh, prone to cancer over the White [women].” Rural participants generally thought that the verbage used in the presentations would not be easily understood by fellow laypeople suggesting the presenter “slow it down” and include “animated videos.” When asked what they would like scientists to focus on next, rural participants expressed interest in actionable steps that impact the cancer care continuum. One person stated, “Prevention things can never be heard enough…[and] how you deal with it.” Conclusions: Results reveal a striking opportunity to improve understanding among basic scientists on how they can be of value to both urban and rural communities. A video-based curriculum intervention for community biologists to improve community-science bilingualism and promote bidirectional learning and engagement is underway.

Application of scientific knowledge: knowledge translation in an institute of science and technology in public health

Knowledge translation (KT) aims at the practical use of scientific research results and at the monitoring of the benefits caused to the population's health. In health, the government and especially society expect that investments in research will produce results that go beyond the production and publication of knowledge, provoking outcomes such as public policies, systems, products, and technologies to benefit the health of the population. However, closing the gaps between research and application requires overcoming a number of challenges. This study aimed to propose strategies to foster the process of transforming the scientific knowledge generated in research into actions and products that contribute to improving the population's health based on the identification of barriers and facilitating factors of a health science and technology institute. The reports of interviews conducted with 16 researchers showed 10 categories of barriers, especially: "limited funding to the science and technology institute" and "insufficient technical support for knowledge translation". "Infrastructure and institutional support" was the facilitating factor category participants mentioned the most. Finally, we developed the artifact "strategies and approaches for overcoming barriers to implement research results". Among the strategies, we suggest the inclusion of a knowledge translation discipline in stricto sensu graduate programs and the creation of an instance in the organizational structure of the science and technology institute to technically and managerially support the application of research results.

Heinrich Gerber's vision of the tropics, 1850-1860: the scientific and economic thinking of a German polytechnic engineer in the Empire of Brazil

This article analyzes the scientific thinking of the German polytechnic engineer Heinrich August Anton Gerber, who was employed by Minas Gerais province from 1858 to 1867. We explore the cultural and intellectual significance of his activities, particularly the idea of creating a private company within the roadway infrastructure sector and his mediating role in the importation of scientific instruments and books. Gerber also appears to have been part of efforts to send Brazilians to study engineering in Paris. Cultural exchanges between Brazil and Europe are investigated, along with the application of scientific knowledge and his encounters with practical economic and social challenges in the interior of the Empire of Brazil.

Clinical Animal Behaviour: Paradigms, Problems and Practice.

Both the public and clinicians are interested in the application of scientific knowledge concerning problem animal behaviour and its treatment. However, in order to do this effectively it is essential that individuals have not only scientific literacy but also an appreciation of philosophical concepts underpinning a particular approach and their practical implications on the knowledge generated as a result. This paper highlights several common misunderstandings and biases associated with different scientific perspectives relevant to clinical animal behaviour and their consequences for how we determine what may be a useful treatment for a given patient. In addition to more reflective evaluation of results, there is a need for researchers to report more information of value to clinicians; such as relevant treatment outcomes, effect sizes, population characteristics. Clinicians must also appreciate the limitations of population level study results to a given case. These challenges can however be overcome with the careful critical reflection using the scientific principles and caveats described.

Science teachers in research labs: Expanding conceptions of social dialogic dimensions of scientific argumentation.

Argumentation is a central epistemic process contributing to the generation, evaluation, and application of scientific knowledge. A key challenge for science educators and researchers is to understand how the important social and discursive (“social dialogic”) dimensions of argumentation can be implemented in learning environments. This study investigates how science educators learned about such argumentation through a professional development program at a scientific research center. The 13‐day program included 5‐days working in research laboratories with a mentor and observing scientific argumentation in context. Theoretically, this research draws on sociocultural frameworks to investigate the social dialogic dimensions of scientific argumentation. Methodologically, it examines the reflections of a cohort of 21 secondary science teachers as they observed argumentation in scientific research settings. It examines how research experiences for teachers can promote an understanding of the social dialogic dimensions of argumentation and to help teachers take up educational approaches that foster expansive argumentation practices. Teachers shared a heightened awareness of argumentation as a ubiquitous, embedded feature of authentic scientific activity; expanded ideas about forms, uses, and purposes of argumentation; and developed an understanding of how contexts for argumentation such as collaborative sensemaking and critique can help manage uncertainty and build knowledge. A year after their program participation, teachers recounted shifts in pedagogical practices, including desettling traditional classroom talk patterns, scaling back their epistemic authority, providing students with more agency and ownership of ideas, and recognizing the value of establishing a culture of community and collaboration. Findings highlight how professional development in research settings has the potential to broaden teachers' views of argumentation, with implications for secondary science teaching.

THE ECONOMIC PAMPHLETEER: Technology: Good, bad, or neutral?

Is technology good, bad, or neutral? The pre­vailing sentiment seems to be that technology is neither good nor bad, but is simply a tool that can be used for either. However, once a technology has been developed, its net effects will be one or the other. The consequences will depend on the inten­tion, or perhaps inattention, with which a technol­ogy is developed and applied. The Encyclopedia Britannica (n.d.) defines technology as “the application of scientific knowledge to the practical aims of human life” (para. 1). The basic purpose of technology, whether mechanical, biological, or digital, is to allow people do things easier, faster, or better. Whether a technology is good, bad, or neutral depends on whose intentions or aims are met and who suffers any unintended consequences. The net effects of a technology, considering both good and bad, is determined not only by whether it contributes to the practical aims of some, but whether it contributes to the betterment of society or life in general.

IMPORTANCE OF USING DISTANCE LEARNING TECHNOLOGIES IN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS

The theory of distance education can be thought of as a set of meetings and ideas aimed at explaining the educational process in the system of distance learning technology. From a formal point of view, distance learning theory, as the most advanced form for the organization of generalized reliable scientific knowledge, is a system that explains and predicts a certain component of the theoretical object, the activity of the education system. Distance learning technology is a system of forms, methods and teaching aids that ensure the most effective achievement of the goal in the implementation of a given educational content. In addition, the content of the training is considered as a set of tasks that provide the composition and structure of educational information provided to students, as well as the formation of professions, education, skills and abilities, the accumulation of initial professional experience. Therefore, technology is a didactic application of scientific knowledge, analysis of the educational process, scientific approaches to the organization, a tool that characterizes the educational process and achieves learning objectives.

An Essential Definition of Engineering to Support Engineering Research in the Twenty-First Century

The concept of engineering is problematic. Despite of the ancient practices of engineering, may be as old as humanity, engineering recently appeared as an academic discipline: engineering studies in universities can be traced back to the nineteenth century. Engineering has been defined as a practice, a process, a profession, and the application of scientific knowledge. However, if engineering is the application of scientific knowledge, there is a tacit assertion of the impossibility to count with proper engineering knowledge, leading to the impossibility, or at least the difficulty, for engineering to own a proper body of knowledge and the rational possibility of doctoral studies in engineering. The main concern in this research is to state a conceptual definition of engineering enough strong that serves as a building block for ontological and epistemological research in philosophy of engineering. It is shown that science and engineering pursue different objectives and produces different results. Therefore, it is possible to make a distinction between one and the other. In this dissertation, epistemological elements of engineering are set apart from ontological elements that compose the concept of engineering to emphasize its nature and the genuine possibility to produce new knowledge of engineering independent of scientific knowledge. However, it is also recognized that even methodologically different, science and engineering are intertwined and interdependent, therefore scientific knowledge does not necessarily precede engineering knowledge. Consequently, there is no hierarchical relationship between science and engineering.

Self-awareness in the formation of the future music teacher’s scientific research culture

The purpose of the article is to highlight the functional characteristics of future music teacher’s selfawareness and worldview orientations as determinants of his scientific and research culture formation. Methods and methodology. The ideas of H.S.Kostyuka, S.D.Maksimenko, S.L.Rubinstein regarding the understanding of the ontology of mental phenomena, generalized by the principle of the unity of consciousness and activity, the development of professionally important qualities of the individual in the systemogenesis of activity; as well as the position of higher art education in relation to cultural, personality-oriented, systemic approaches as a methodological basis in revealing the peculiarities of the future teacher-musician’s self-awareness have acquired methodological significance for the selected issue. The scientific novelty of the article consists in illumination of the purpose of the professional worldview activity and in the context of the teacher-musician scientific research culture, the revealing of the essence of teachermusician self-awareness, the formation of which is manifested as support for its internal consistency and self-identity, the construction of conscious research and pedagogy; self-knowledge and search for the meaning of life through selfimprovement, self-understanding, self-education by means of research in the field of art education. The results. The theoretical-methodological aspects of the problem of future teachers-musicians’ scientificresearch culture formation are revealed, and in particular, issues regarding their self-awareness, semantic-forming and professional worldview activities. The scientific research culture of the future teacher-musician is defined as a dynamic, integrative quality of the personality, manifested in the ability to synthesize analytical-synthetic, inductive-deductive mental activity and emotional-figurative comprehension of musical art, the embodiment of scientific, pedagogical and artistic. application of scientific knowledge in pedagogical activity as a scientific-theoretical (explanatory) and constructive-technological (transformative) function. It is noted that the teacher’s self-awareness ensures the tension of his intellect, worldview intentions, social determinism of scientific research in musical and pedagogical education. It is emphasized that a particular importance of the researcher’s semantic-forming activity is acquired by the worldview, which is characterized by spiritual and aesthetic content and orientation, which is manifested as a valuable attitude to socio-cultural, educational and pedagogical processes through the prism of personal worldview. It was concluded that the result of the formation of future teacher-musician’s scientific and research culture is formed qualitative and instrumental properties of self-awareness, which ensure its functioning.

Factors affecting the application of scientific knowledge in a STEAM contest: the correlates between collective efficacy, cohesiveness, and prosociality

ABSTRACT Background The linkage between group members’ characteristics, group cohesiveness, knowledge application, and competitive performance has rarely been studied. Purpose This study aimed to explore the correlations among individual characteristics (i.e. prosociality), collective mind (i.e. collective efficacy and cohesiveness), and how these variables affect scientific knowledge application. Sample This study examined a STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics) competition, called the GreenMech contest, which required four members in a group to assemble all parts into many configurations for a ball to run and trigger the next junctures. Design and methods The competition groups assembled their configurations in the morning, with judges assessing their efforts in the afternoon. The bulk of the scoring index in the assessment focused on groups’ scientific knowledge application in the overall design. In addition to this assessment, this study additionally used questionnaire surveys for participants to self-rate their perceptions of those individual traits and collective states. Results Prosociality is positively related to collective efficacy and cohesiveness, while collective efficacy is positively related to cohesiveness. Moreover, these two types of collective mind were both positively related to the application of scientific knowledge. Conclusion The findings suggest that team members with a higher level of prosociality may provide collective efficacy and cohesiveness, which in turn can facilitate their achievement of competition goals by increasing their application of scientific knowledge in a STEAM contest.

Supporting Preschool Teachers to Teach Physics in Mexico

The preschool level is often the first formal opportunity for children to experience science. There are many examples of appropriate experiments and scientific experiences aimed at young children, both in Mexico and around the world. Even the formal public preschool program in Mexico includes sections called Academic Training Topics, one of which is “Knowledge of the Natural and Social World” that can be addressed through physics. For this standard, the Mexican Secretary of Education has four standards in science: science attitudes, scientific knowledge, abilities associated to science, and applications of scientific knowledge and technology, and teachers are required to address all of them.
