The Concept of Sirah Education Curriculum in Junior High School according to Abu Al-Hasan Ali Al-Nadwi

This article analyses the educational thought of Abu Al-Hasan Ali Al-Nadwi (d. 1999 A.D.). The study aimed to determine the concept of the Sirah education curriculum at the junior high school level, according to Abu Al-Hasan Ali Al-Nadwi. This type of research is categorized as library research, with data obtained from Al-Nadwi's books relating to Sirah and education in particular such as Al-Tarîq ilâ al-Madînah; Sîrah Khâtim al-Nabiyîn li al-Atfâl; Al-Sîrah Al-Nabawiyyah; Muslims in the West, Message, and Mission. The methods used in this study are descriptive research, qualitative research, and basic research. Based on the study results, two main thoughts about Sirah's education were found. First, the continuity of Sirah Education is essential, which means that Sirah education is taught for all generations. Furthermore, Sirah education means integrating Sirah education in subjects, especially religious aspects. The author's findings on the concept of the Sirah education curriculum at the junior high school level, according to Abu Al-Hasan Ali Al-Nadwi, are a set of objectives, programs, processes, and evaluations of Sirah education up to the junior high school level that can be given from class VII to grade IX junior high school. With the existence of Sirah Education, which aims to make the Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam an example for junior high school students, it is hoped that it can shape the Islamic personality of students at the junior high school level and give birth to Akhlaq al Karimah based on Tawhid.

Education 4.0: Integrating Codes, Standards, and Regulations in the Chemical Engineering Curriculum

Education 4.0 is the framework to facilitate the development of skills and competencies of engineering students required for Industry 4.0 through the integration of Industry 4.0 applied concepts, networked approach, digitalization of higher education institutions (HEI), and online advancement of teaching and learning practices. In the chemical engineering curriculum of several HEIs, considerable progress in implementing this framework has been made by including computer-aided design tools, updating manufacturing technologies, using simulation and analysis of virtual models, and implementing data analytics in engineering courses and programs. Process and plant design courses such as Plant Design demand that undergraduate students leverage knowledge from core courses completed during first three years of their degree program by developing a plant's conceptual design. This course clearly sets a pathway to integrate Education 4.0 to Industry 4.0. All stakeholders of this course (students, teaching team, and clients) can progressively identify challenges and opportunities to optimize this integration. Many suggested improvements might require a vertical integration of new concepts in the chemical engineering curriculum, involving courses of different levels throughout the undergraduate curriculum. Nevertheless, we consider that immediate actions shall be taken by teaching teams and industry partners in courses such as Plant Design for students achieving the required competencies and skills before graduating from universities. For instance, running a successful multi-disciplinary engineering team for plant design in the industry will require undergraduate students to become familiar with codes, standards, and regulations. According to our industry partners, this lack of familiarization significantly affects the learning curve of junior engineers at work and shows a disconnection between what is learned at university and what is required in the workplace. To facilitate the transition of our students into the process design industry in the framework of Education 4.0-Industry 4.0, in this work, we describe and present the results of applying a strategy to tackle this challenge by (i) identifying the currently applicable codes, standards, and regulations in the process engineering industry for each technical deliverable (process flow diagram, piping and instrumentation diagram, line list, plot plan, design of equipment, risk management, and safety documents) of the course; (ii) designing and delivering workshops to describe and illustrate their applicability; and (iii) creating a written set of guidelines applicable to the course and the workplace.

A QUALITATIVE STUDY OF UNDERGRADUATE MEDICAL STUDENTS' PERCEPTION ON THE QUALITYOF THE TEACHING INTERMS OF THE HIDDEN CURRICULUM

Background & Aim: The hidden curriculum concept is established on identifying what student absorbs or the outcome that may or may not be the part of the formal course of study. Thus, “hidden curriculum is described as “hidden” because it is usually unacknowledged or unexamined by students, educators, and the community. The hidden curriculum has also been described as the unofcial expectations, unintended learning outcomes, the construction of social relations” (1). Objective:The quality of teaching in terms of the hidden curriculum has been identied to be an important and effective component in the educational process. This is a qualitative study that investigates the awareness of hidden curriculum among undergraduate medical students and to correlate the relationship with students' perception and academic performances. Materials & Methods: This is the cross-sectional study and we used a semi-structured interview to examine the undergraduate medical students' perceptions about the quality of teaching in terms of hidden curriculum. The questionnaire developed based on Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure (DREEM) which is a reliable inventory that claims to be collective to undergraduate health professions education. Result:Among the 300 students, 76 (25.3%) were male and 224 (74.7) were female. The results showed that positive was greater than negative perceptions among the medical students about the quality of teaching in terms of the hidden curriculum. Conclusion:This qualitative study conducted among the medical students in a university revealed that the medical students are aware of the components of the hidden curriculum as a basic part of their education. The students enrolled in medical sciences courses in the university generally perceived positive feedback from the educational environment.

Re/thinking Curriculum Inquiry in the Posthuman Condition: A Critical Posthumanist Stance

In the reconceptualisation era of curriculum studies, scholars drew on a range of theories such as existentialism, phenomenology, psychoanalysis, feminism, poststructuralism, and especially critical theory. They used critical theory as a lens to examine the influence of social and political forces on curriculum, in particular the role of dominant ideologies on schooling and higher education in capitalist societies. In this article we explore some of the limitations this has, especially with regard to the current posthuman condition, without repudiating all the benefits that it has offered. Then we re/think curriculum studies in the posthuman condition, drawing on insights from a particular strand of posthumanism, critical posthumanism. We experiment with the real, as well as with what a reconceptualised subject (one that is ecological) might mean for curriculum inquiry in South Africa. In our exploration, we re/think the curriculum concepts: curriculum-as-lived, curriculum as complicated conversation, and currere.

Pelaksanaan Evaluasi dan Pengembangan Konsep KurikulumPendidikan Islam sebagai Rekonstruksi Sosial dan Rasionalisasi Akademik

The purpose of this study was to determine the implementation of evaluation and development of curriculum concepts as social reconstruction and academic rationalization at the Daar El Manshur Islamic Boarding School. This study also aims to determine the supporting and inhibiting factors in the implementation of the evaluation and development. This research is a field research conducted at the Daar El Manshur Islamic Boarding School with a qualitative method. Data was collected by using in-depth interviews with informants and then analyzed using content analysis. The results of the analysis show that the implementation of curriculum evaluation and development with an academic rationalization approach and social reconstruction has not run optimally because the evaluation of the curriculum implementation process does not yet have an assessment measurement tool and is only carried out in the form of reports. However, the follow-up to the evaluation can still be carried out. This can be seen from the implementation of curriculum development at the DEM Islamic Boarding School, such as the addition of a curriculum that is in accordance with the goals, vision, and mission of the pesantren. However, due to the large number of teachers who do not have an educational background, this is one of the inhibiting factors, but the ease in conveying opinions and opportunities to take higher education levels for teachers is expected to carry out the evaluation of the concept of curriculum development in the future to run optimally.

Understanding Hidden Objectives for Developing Teaching Abilities in Prospective Teachers

Many lecturers wrote their (formal) learning objectives at the beginning of each session. However, many of them also ignored the existence of hidden objectives, whereas if applied, the hidden objectives will maximize learning outcomes broadly. The hidden objective, that was applied to Micro Teaching courses at the university is discussed. In this paper, we outlined the concept of hidden objectives in developing and nurturing teaching skills for prospective teachers. The article was based on literature analysis relating to the concepts of curriculum, hidden curriculum, and learning objectives. We endeavoured to review the literature, definition, and principles of hidden objectives to develop a better understanding. We concluded that hidden objectives provide a contribution to the Micro Teaching course, and we recommended a model addressed to lecturers at the related departments, to the head of the department where the course was carried out, and to a unit of curriculum development at the Faculty of Education.

The validity of the chemistry practicum e-module from various applications in the implementation of online and offline practicum can be accepted by teachers and students, so that the teaching and learning process in proving theories in terms of practicum can be prepared. Especially in the future pandemic crisis, it is necessary to develop students' scientific literacy in terms of content, competence, context, and attitudes that are focused on preparing the next generation of scientific literacy through a culture-based curriculum to produce more contextual learning.

Quality improvement of undergraduate courses based on fuzzy analytic hierarchy process and entropy method.

Since the curriculum is the core carrier to improve the level of talent cultivation in colleges and universities, strengthening the reform of course teaching and improving the quality of course teaching are fundamental to the survival and development of colleges and universities, and also an important part of higher education reform. In this study, a fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and an entropy method were used to determine the weight of the core evaluation indicators of undergraduate course quality improvement, including four first-level indicators of the curriculum concept, curriculum resources, curriculum organization, and curriculum effectiveness, and 12 s-level evaluation indicators and weights. Then, based on a case study of the first-class undergraduate course “Management” of Anyang Normal University, the way to evaluate the course by the AHP and entropy method was explained. Finally, according to the evaluation results, the ideas of course construction were put forward, such as changing the course concept, enriching the course resources, paying attention to the course organization, and ensuring the course effectiveness, so as to improve the quality of undergraduate courses and also to improve the quality of undergraduate talent training with the improvement of course quality as the starting point.

Secondary teachers’ experiences of enacting financial literacy/accounting in a technology-rich environment

ABSTRACT South African accounting and Economic and Management Sciences (EMS) teachers draw from different levels of experience in the teaching of financial literacy. This leads to poor performance in financial literacy and accounting in the FET phase. Therefore, this qualitative study sought to explore the secondary teachers’ experiences of enacting financial literacy/accounting in a technology-rich environment. The interpretive paradigm is used as a world view in the presentation of findings framed by the TPACK theoretical framework. One-on-one semi-structured interviews, focus groups and reflective activities were used to generate data from the six teachers in distinct schools who were purposefully and conveniently selected. Data were thematically analysed through inductive and deductive processes. Findings revealed that the varying use of experiences reflects the lack of content knowledge, technological knowledge which affects the pedagogical knowledge and some of the curriculum concepts. The study recommends the combination of proficient (professional) and common (societal) experiences so that subjective (personal) experiences assist teachers in enacting and integrating technologies with the financial literacy/accounting curriculum in a way that improves learner performance in a technology-rich environment

Foundation of Islamic Education Curriculum (Study of Q.S. Al-‘Alaq 1-5) Perspective of Transcendental Structuralism

The researcher's academic anxiety sees the problem of lagging in Islamic education because the curriculum foundation is not strong. The existence of a long debate regarding the form of Islamic education curriculum demonstrates the confusion about the basic structure or foundation. Philosophically, Q.S. al-‘Alaq 1-5 contains the message of the basic values of Islamic education. The theoretical claim in this paper is Q.S. al-‘Alaq 1-5 which is elaborated on the theory of transcendental structuralism that produces the basic concepts of the Islamic education curriculum. Implicitly, this study can be used as a theoretical framework to analyze the problems of the Islamic education curriculum in general. This study aims to explain the relationship between Q.S. al-‘Alaq 1-5 with the foundation of the Islamic education curriculum. The results of this study indicate that based on Q.S. al-‘Alaq 1-5, the foundation of the Islamic education curriculum consists of epistemology as a way of thinking, world view as a view of world, and ideology as a value order oriented to the integration of spiritualawareness, rationality awareness, ethical awareness, technological awareness and awareness of social transformation. The novelty of this paper is found in the analysis of transcendental structuralism of the verses of the Qur'an which produces the theory of Islamic education. This research can be said as the theorizing of the Qur’an or the science of Islam.

Discussion on the Value of Integration Traditional Culture Into Kindergarten Curriculum ---Take Wuhu Iron Painting Technology as an Example

Traditional culture is the overall expression of various ideological, cultural and conceptual forms formed in the historical development of our country. Traditional culture breeds the precious spiritual character of the Chinese nation and has very important educational value. Integrating traditional culture into kindergarten curriculum can promote the development of children's character and sociality. Iron painting is a folk craft with a long history in China. Integrating iron painting technology into kindergarten curriculum is an effective way to inherit Chinese excellent culture, an inevitable requirement to promote children's physical and mental development, and a feasible path to promote kindergarten curriculum construction. At the same time, it is feasible to integrate traditional culture into kindergarten curriculum. On the one hand, the research on traditional culture has accumulated some early achievements, which provides a theoretical basis for the development of kindergarten based curriculum; On the other hand, kindergartens can develop game materials of iron painting technology, which reduces the operation difficulty of iron painting technology. It is suggested that kindergartens establish curriculum concepts around children's development and promote the construction of teachers of traditional culture.

Concept analysis of the independent learning curriculum in the mass of covid 19 at early childhood education institutions

Independent learning (Merdeka Belajar) is the latest discovery in the field of Early Childhood Education. Institutions, teachers, and students have the flexibility to organize their learning activities when they have the freedom to learn. For PAUD teachers, the problem of learning independence is a matter of the ability to communicate and adapt to changes in the world of education. This study aimed to analyze the concept of an independent learning curriculum. This study uses qualitative methods, data sources from journals, research reports, scientific articles, etc. The data collection technique in this study uses source triangulation and technical triangulation. The data analysis technique in this study used SWOT analysis. The author's study results in the concept of Independent learning in PAUD is Freedom to Play. The idea is child-centered, and so far, learning is mostly teacher-centered. The characteristics of the curriculum are children. Teachers can develop their learning themes that will be implemented and efforts to increase creativity in learning based on their relationship with independent learning. Therefore, the learning process can provide free space for educators and students to be more creative in learning. This study found that independent learning gives schools the flexibility to determine learning materials that aim to develop better students.

An exploratory foreign language curriculum: The creative application of RICH in senior high school English instruction

With the rapid development of globalization, foreign language learners are supposed to have the ability to use the language in intercultural communication accurately and appropriately. However, guided by the traditional teacher-centered language teaching and learning model, learners cannot meet the requirements of social development because the knowledge that students acquire is rather limited, let alone learning and applying abilities. Meanwhile, their interest in learning a foreign language cannot be fully stimulated. RICH, a creative curriculum concept, combines Research-based Learning, Integrated Curriculum, Cooperative Learning, and Humanistic Outcomes. The new curriculum concept aims to lead students to enter the language classroom as thinkers and researchers, developing their humanistic qualities and their abilities to use the English language in practice through interdisciplinary studies so as to promote their intercultural communicative ability eventually. To test the applicability of RICH in senior high English school instruction, qualitative and quantitative research methods were employed, including one academic year’s teaching experiment lasting from 2020 through 2021, video recordings of instructing cases, and semi-open interviews with some subjects. Research data has demonstrated that RICH can be of great help in creatively designing and implementing key competence cultivation-oriented English instructions in the context of the New Curriculum Standards for senior high school English instruction.

A conceptual construction management curriculum model grounded in scientometric analysis

PurposeThis research aims to present a conceptual model for construction management programme curriculum development from the perspective of higher education institutes (HEIs) and aims to engender wider polemic debate and stimulate new insight into current higher education practice.Design/methodology/approachThe overarching epistemology adopts both interpretivist and pragmatist philosophical stances, couched within grounded theory, to critically analyse extant literature on construction management curriculum development. Inductive reasoning forms the basis of new emergent theory that maps curriculum development and highlights the external and internal factors impacting upon such.FindingsResearch findings illustrate that the prevailing body of knowledge lacks a cohesive nucleus of research on construction management curriculum development. Rather, bespoke curriculum development research predominates in uncommunicative silos. Premised upon these findings, the conceptual curriculum model developed defines and delineates the universal internal factors (e.g. student marketplace, course leadership and academic precedents) and external factors (e.g. accreditation, construction industry and professional bodies) that impact upon curriculum development. Identification of these factors provides a sound basis upon which further research can be propagated to enhance curriculum development and unify the current disparate approaches adopted.Originality/valueThis novel research highlights the lack of a cohesive agenda for curriculum development within mainstream construction management literature and based upon this, a conceptual model for future empirical analysis and testing is presented.
