Effect of Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge Framework based Capacity Building Programme Module (CBPM) on Teaching Aptitude of Pre-Service Teachers

Technology integration in education transcends the mere implementation of technological artefacts, encompassing theoretical frameworks and evidence-based research findings to enhance pedagogical practices rather than being limited to the rudimentary application of computer hardware and software in instructional delivery. This study employed a quasi-experimental methodology, utilising a pre-test/post-test equivalent group design incorporating the Solomon four-group paradigm to generate quantitative data from pre-service teachers enrolled in undergraduate teacher education programmes. Statistical analyses, including descriptive measures of means, standard deviations and standard errors of means, demonstrated a significant favourable influence of a Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework-based capacity-building programme Module on the teaching aptitude of pre-service teachers.

Analysis of the Aptitude of Teachers and Students of Economic Education in Facing the Challenges of Implementation of MBKM Curriculum

The implementation of the Free Learning Program of Free Campus (MBKM) in higher education is a significant focal point today. This study aims to assess the readiness of both educators and students for the MBKM curriculum. Conducted qualitatively, the research engaged faculty and students from the PGRI University of Wiranegara Economic Education Studies Program. Regarding lecturers, preparedness involves multifaceted aspects. They must enhance comprehension of MBKM's objectives and advantages, alongside understanding the curriculum alterations. Furthermore, managing augmented workload due to additional MBKM courses becomes imperative. On the other hand, students’ preparedness is equally pivotal. They must grasp the benefits of MBKM, comprehend their responsibilities in time management and study planning, adapt to new settings, and nurture the motivation for self-development. The readiness factors for both educators and learners in the MBKM implementation are interconnected and mutually reinforcing. Educators, equipped to handle MBKM changes, can offer effective guidance to students. Simultaneously, well-prepared students can fully leverage MBKM opportunities. Consequently, lecturers need to refine their understanding, pedagogical prowess, and workload management. Students, on the other hand, must cultivate awareness, self-learning abilities, adaptability, and intrinsic motivation for personal development. Adequate preparation for the MBKM curriculum can yield maximum benefits, enabling faculty and students to explore interests, talents, and expertise beyond the confines of their prescribed course of study. This readiness aligns teachers and students to make the most of the MBKM curriculum, fostering comprehensive growth and skill development.

Statistical Aptitude of Teachers during their Early Training

Resumo Estudos na área de Educação Matemática têm evidenciado a pertinência de o ensino de Estatística ser baseado no desenvolvimento de pesquisas, visando proporcionar aos alunos criticidade na análise e interpretação de dados para tomada de decisões. Para tanto, professores precisam estar letrados estatisticamente, a fim de disporem de ferramentas que possam proporcionar ensino baseado nas etapas da pesquisa científica. Adota-se aqui a perspectiva do letramento estatístico constituído pelos componentes afetivo e cognitivo. Neste artigo, objetivou-se analisar o conhecimento de 11 futuros professores de Matemática em relação a quatro elementos do componente cognitivo - letramento, conhecimento de contexto, conhecimento matemático e conhecimento estatístico. Trata-se de pesquisa diagnóstica, visto que se analisa instrumento proposto no início do minicurso intitulado “Desenvolvimento do pensamento estatístico nos Anos Iniciais”, realizado na semana universitária da Universidade Estadual do Ceará - UECE. O elemento conhecimento matemático foi revelado entre os participantes como aquele de maior domínio. Em contrapartida, o conhecimento estatístico e o letramento - o primeiro referindo-se ao domínio dos conceitos estatísticos e o segundo à leitura do mundo a partir das informações estatísticas - foram os de maior fragilidade. Percebeu-se que até o período em que se encontram os estudantes, os cursos de graduação não conseguiram apoiálos satisfatoriamente na construção desses elementos do componente cognitivo do letramento estatístico.

A Comparative Analysis of School Teachers' Teaching Aptitude

The teaching profession is incomplete without teachers' personal aptitude towards their profession as teaching aptitude uplifts teachers' teaching competencies and gives them confidence in their profession. Keeping in view the utmost significance of teaching aptitude for school teachers, this study was conducted with the purpose of comparing the teaching aptitude of elementary school teachers and secondary school teachers in schools of three districts of the Multan division in Punjab province. The sample for the study was comprised of 300 teachers including 171 ESTs and 129 SSTs which were selected by using a simple random sampling technique. For the measurement of the aptitude of teachers of both cadres, Dahiya & Singh's Teaching Aptitude Test (2004) was used. For the analysis of data, Mean score and z-test was used. The results revealed that ESTs had greater teaching aptitude than SSTs. However, the difference between the teaching aptitudes of ESTs and SSTs is insignificant. Similarly, male ESTs had a low-level teaching aptitude than male SSTs. The study recommended that teaching aptitude should be measured at the time of induction of teachers.

The Establishment of Supported Decision-making Model for Evaluation Teaches Professional Development Effects Based on Fuzzy Theory

A country’s competitiveness depends on the performance of its national education. Meanwhile, the effects of national education rely on the professional aptitude of teachers. Facing the current knowledge economy, all countries are trying to use quality education to develop highly competitive citizens through educational reform. Therefore, inspiring self-awareness of teachers through internal and external power and further enhancing the profession both spontaneously and continuously is the only way to achieve quality education. This study adopts the group decision technique of the (Delphi method) to identify the following four review factors: course design and teaching, class operation and guidance, professional research and educational development, and professional dedication and attitude, as well as relevant content through a questionnaire survey, analysis, and construction. Furthermore, the quantification function of the fuzzy logic theory is applied to establish a scientific and highly objective “supported decision-making model for evaluating the professional development effects of teachers”. In addition to providing evaluation for teaching self-assessment and the overall educational effects of the educational unit, our findings could be used as references for education and administrative departments to evaluate educational results.
