Assessing Students’ Learning Readiness Toward Student-Centered Learning

This research examined the readiness of English Education students at Esa Unggul University towards the student-centered learning (SCL) approach, focusing on three main aspects of learning readiness: physical, mental, and cognitive. With the increasing adoption of SCL in educational settings, understanding students' readiness across these dimensions was crucial for its effective implementation. Through a qualitative descriptive analysis, this study employed questionnaires and interviews with 43 freshmen to explore their readiness. The research methodology integrated a purposive sampling technique, aiming to gather in-depth insights from participants with direct experience in SCL environments. Findings revealed a moderate level of overall readiness, with variances across the three examined aspects. Physically, students felt somewhat prepared, particularly in terms of self-assessment capabilities, albeit less so for cooperative learning. Mentally, a general trend towards moderate agreement was observed, with strengths in reflective practices and collaborative skills. Cognitive readiness highlighted a strong inclination towards engaging in authentic learning tasks yet revealed gaps in connecting new learning with prior knowledge. These insights suggested that while there was a foundational readiness for SCL, targeted interventions were needed to bridge identified gaps, particularly in learning autonomy and prior knowledge connections. The study concluded that enhancing student readiness for SCL required a multifaceted approach, addressing the pedagogical and environmental factors influencing physical, mental, and cognitive readiness.

Human capital and sustainable university: Mediating role of sustainable human resource management in Indonesia

Sustainable universities play a role in evaluating and reporting on sustainable practices in developing countries. The study aims to identify human capital’s impact on sustainable university performance by implementing sustainable human resource management (sustainable HRM) as a mediating variable. The paper uses a quantitative approach, with a sample of 140 employees consisting of lecturers and educational staff at Esa Unggul University, Jakarta, Indonesia. Data were collected using a Likert scale questionnaire and analyzed using structural equation modeling-partial least squares with SmartPLS 4.0 software. The results showed a positive and significant impact that was statistically proven by a direct impact of human capital and sustainable HRM on sustainable universities as well as an indirect impact of human capital on sustainable universities mediated by sustainable HRM. Furthermore, the results showed that the level of direct influence of human capital on sustainable universities has an influence value of 0.371, where the influence is categorized as weak. The level of indirect influence with sustainable HRM as a mediator between human capital and sustainable universities has an influence of 0.662 with a fairly strong/moderate influence. This proves that the role of sustainable HRM practices is an essential component in realizing a sustainable university. Empirical findings recommend increasing the capacity and quality of lecturers and education staff as the main component of university human capital to achieve sustainable higher education performance. Sustainable HRM practices need to be implemented thoughtfully by universities to improve performance from economic, environmental, and social aspects.

Body image and weight loss diet behavior are related to nutritional status in female college students

Nutritional status is an important indicator of college student health. College students are included in the age group vulnerable to nutritional problems such as decreased diet quality and excessive weight. The study aims to determine the relationship between body image, mindful eating, and weight loss diet behavior with nutritional status in female college students. The study used a cross-sectional design and was conducted among female students at Esa Unggul University in 2022. A total of 122 subjects were selected using the Proportionate Stratified Random Sampling method. Nutritional status is measured by assessing Body Mass Index (BMI). The instruments used were the Multidimensional Body-Self Relations Questionnaire (MBSRQ) to assess body image, the Mindful Eating Questionnaire (MEQ) to assess mindful eating, and the dietary behavior questionnaire to assess weight loss. Data were analyzed by chi-square test at CI:95%. The results showed that body image was related to thin (p= 0,004) and obese (p= 0,000) nutritional status. Dietary behavior for weight loss is associated with thin nutritional status (p= 0,010) but not with obesity (p= 0,389). In conclusion, nutritional status (BMI) is related to body image and weight loss diet behavior in female college students.
