Pengembangan Modul Tematik Terintegrasi Al-Qur’an dan Hadis Pada Tema Cuaca di Kelas III Sekolah Dasar

This research is motivated by learning that only focuses on the teacher's book, so that the teacher gives very little understanding of Islamic values to students and teachers find it difficult to instill character values in students. The material in thematic textbooks and modules is not yet available which is integrated with the Qur'an and Hadith. Even though learning resources that are integrated with the Qur'an and Hadith are needed at the elementary school in accordance with the school's vision, namely loving knowledge, sincere in charity, ready to preach and patiently living it. So that teaching materials are needed that link the Qur'an and Hadith as an effort to overcome these problems, namely the need for efforts to develop teaching materials for the Integrated Thematic Module of the Qur'an and Hadith on the Weather Theme in grade III Elementary School.This type of research is a Research and Development (R&D) research by prioritizing the ADDIE development model which consists of several stages (Analyze, Design, Development, Implimantation, Evaluation). The test subjects are third grade students of SD IP Daaruth Thullab 02 Koto Salak. The data collection instrument used an assessment instrument in the form of a validation sheet, the practicality and effectiveness of this assessment instrument were validated by three validators, content balladators, language validators, and construct validators.The use of teaching materials for the Integrated Thematic Module of the Qur'an and Hadith on the Weather Theme in grade III Elementary School. The results of the module validation carried out by 3 validators obtained an average validity value of 78.95% in the valid category, the practicality value obtained a value of 93% in the very practical category. And the value of effectiveness obtained a value of 66,68%. It can be concluded that the Thematic Integrated Module of the Qur'an and Hadith on the Weather Theme in grade III Elementary School is valid and can be used by teachers and students.

THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE USE OF DIGITAL TEXBOOKS ON THE EVALUATION OF BIOLOGY LEARNING COURSE ON PORTFOLIO ASSESSMENT MATERIALS

Portfolio-based research is an important and inseparable part of the various skills that prospective biology teacher students need to possess. This development research using the ADDIE Model involved 92 students as research subjects, and 3 lecturers who were in charge of the Biology Learning Evaluation course. Subjects were determined by purposive sampling technique. Data related to the readiness of portfolio development in digital textbooks were used in questionnaires, and data related to portfolio-based assessment abilities were used, and were complemented by in-depth interviews with the lecture team of lecturers. Furthermore, the data were analyzed using the percentage technique to see the tendency of the respondent's condition. The results of the study found that 87.76% of respondents said that the portfolio material in textbooks was effective to be taught to prospective biology teacher students or in the very good category. The results of the evaluation of the portfolio-based assessment ability are included in the very good category as much as 72.41% and in the good category as much as 27.59%.

Axiological aspects of teaching Spanish in the Soviet Union

Objectives. The paper analyzes core axiological aspects of Spanish teaching in higher educational institutions of the Soviet Union from the 1930s to the early 1980s based on various sources including textbooks, tutorials, etc. Methods. The study is based on textual-analytic, historical-comparative, and structural methods.Results. Scientific-pedagogical and sociological aspects of the subject are distinguished. The former are limited to the internal developmental logic of Spanish studies, while the latter refers to external circumstances, including ideological factors. The literature review shows that Spanish teaching in the USSR progressed topically from simple manuals aimed at consolidating linguistic basics to a more rigorous pedagogical development of Spanish language studies (grammar, phonetics, vocabulary, etc.) The authors identify two significant periods in the development of Soviet Spanish studies, with the first phase extending from the 1930s to the early 1960s, and the second—from the 1960s to the early 1980s.Conclusions. The analysis showed that the formation and development of each period is associated with such events as the Spanish Civil War and the victory of the Cuban Revolution, which are not directly related to Spanish teaching. The first event coincided with the beginning of systematic Spanish teaching at the USSR universities, while the second redirected this process from Castilian to Latin American Spanish. However, the analysis of textbook and tutorial materials convincingly demonstrates that this process of redirection, which mainly concerns the selection of textual materials, remains incomplete. This supports a conclusion concerning the limited impact of ideology on the internal logic of the Spanish studies development in the USSR.

Enhancing Language of Instructions by Using the Language Supportive Teaching and Textbooks Materials in Secondary Schools in Temeke District

Various arguments and solutions are proposed in the current discourse on weak English language proficiency in Tanzania. Most authors agree that the standard of reading, writing, speaking of the language is low. Proposed solutions vary. One solution proposed has been to support student language proficiency in form 1 by running a language supportive program. Language Supportive Teaching and Textbooks [LSTT] is one among the recent programs designed and practiced in some schools in Dodoma, Morogoro and Lindi regions of Tanzania. The program with materials available for further experimentation since 2016. This study investigated the enhancement of the proficiency in the language of instructions by using tried LSTT materials to improve English language proficiency among Form 1 students in Temeke district in Dar es Salaam. The study employed action research design; using a quantitative approach to administer a vocabulary and comprehension pre and post –tests, and qualitative research approach aimed at understanding the views of teachers and students through interviews and observation of learning in classrooms. The study was guided by Constructivism Theory (Vygotsky, 1978) focusing on learning by seeing and scaffolding by following teachers and peers, and Bilingual theory of Common Underlying Proficiency model (Cummins, 1980’s). Two public secondary schools were involved in the study, which included a sample size of 160 participants among whom 154 were students, four English teachers and two Head teachers. The researcher selected students from two streams in two schools hence one stream termed as a “treated group” and other group used to compare the results of pre- and post-test. Purposive sampling used to select four teachers. After running eight lessons, the findings revealed that through LSTT materials both teachers and students benefited as classroom interaction improved. Teachers were able to present the lesson well through LSTT approaches and pedagogy, which promoted students participation through exercises and better understanding, as well as improved speaking and reading. Those who were oriented through LSTT material had a higher score in the posttest, which was significant. After the researcher had been teaching through the LSTT materials most of the students in the trial gained confidence and more interest to learn through English language. Their scores in vocabulary and comprehensive test also improved significantly.

ANALYSIS OF TEACHER RESULTS ON THE USE OF THE PANCASILA CHARACTER ELECTRONIC MODULE FOR EVEN SEMESTER XI CLASS Civics Education Learning

In the current pandemic situation, all activities are limited. This limitation occurs in all aspects of life, including in the field of education. Based on the results of observations and interviews with PPKN teachers, there are 20 teachers consisting of 8 schools at the SMA/SMK/MA level. These schools include SMAN 1 Srengat, SMAN 3 Blitar City, Muhammadiyan High School Blitar City, SMAN 1 Sutojayan, SMAN 1 Kademanangan, MAN 2 Blitar, Islamic Vocational School 1 Blitar City and Kanigoro Islamic Vocational School. effectively used in distance learning systems. This is due to several factors such as: (1) the form of textbooks and LKS are still in print, while distance learning requires digital-based teaching materials sources, (2) the discussion of material in textbooks and LKS is not in-depth, (3) in LKS and textbooks there are no structured activities in each meeting. The purpose of this study was to find out the response of PPKN class XI teachers to the use of the Ayo Ber character Pancasila electronic module. The research method used is descriptive qualitative by using teacher response questionnaires and interview instruments to explore more in-depth information on the use of modules during product trials. Based on the teacher response test phase, an average percentage of 95% of the XI grade Civics teachers gave a positive response to the developed product.

전후 미국학계에 소개된 한국사 연구와 식민주의 역사학

As the Cold War system was established after World War II, American academia’s interest in East Asia as well as Korea, the front line of the Cold War, increased. Establishment of East Asian research institutes, new courses and professorship as well as the publication of Korean Studies Guide in the 1950s, shows considerable interest in East Asia and Korea in American academia right after World War II. Especially, the fact that Suematsu’s 『朝鮮史のしるべ』(1936) and Hatada’s 『朝鮮史』(1951) were translated and published in the days when there were very few Korean history books in English in the academic field, are an implication of the relation between the colonial historiography in pre-war Japan and post war Korean studies in the U.S. These two books, known to American academia by the Korean Studies Guide and its writers, received conflicting reviews from the time they were first introduced and even after the release of the book. A Short History of Korea was welcomed as a textbook and reference material in the absence of an English history book, but A History of Korea was evaluated as a fresh and objective Korean history book because it was not only based on socioeconomic perspectives but also described in strict criticism of colonial rule.BR Indeed, the two books revealed a clear difference in their description and composition, but they were common in that they negatively portrayed Korean history based on the study by former Japanese researchers. Hatada’s work based on socioeconomic perspectives was in line with the theory of lack of feudalism, which Japanese historians argued in the past, that the production relationship revealed in Korean history was developmental but centered on ancient production until the late Joseon Dynasty. This discussion was to find the reason why only Japan could succeed in modernization through feudalism from the time it first appeared by Japanese researchers in the early 20th century, which could lead to the modernization theory that emerged in American academia after the war. In addition, both books deal with the pressure and aggression of foreign forces on Korea as important historical nodes, which have resulted in not only emphasizing the heteronomy of Korean history but also explaining the development of Japanese history. The establishment of the Four Chinese Commanderies(Hansagun), and the Imjin War was a representative basis that not only showed Korea suffering from foreign invasion, but also described as a major phase revealing the historical relationship between the island country Japan and the continent. This was based on the research of former Japanese historians who tried to explain the history of Tōyō(東洋) centered on Japan, and could also be linked to the U.S. policy of pursuing U.S. hegemony and national interests in postwar East Asia.BR In conclusion, A Short History of Korea and A History of Korea are not only based on the identity and heteronomy of Korean history, but also faithful to the perspective of former Japanese historians in that they explain the historical relationship between Japan and the continent through Korean history. The reason why these works were able to be distributed to American academia was that the discussion of colonial historiography could easily match the U.S. policy and modernization theory that tried to carry out the security and U.S. national interests in East Asia with Japan as a policy partner.

Impact of Service Quality on Customer Satisfaction of Ekta Books with View of School Clients of Kathmandu Valley

This topic of study aims at finding out whether the customers’ expectations of matched their satisfaction level on the basis of quality and after sales services provided by Ekta Books. So, the research is to study the preference of the customers and their satisfaction level. A structured questionnaire designed and survey was conducted among 100 retailers/dealers, organizational staff/customers and individual customers through probabilistic systematic sampling technique. With a view to remaining competitive leading position and for businesses to grow, service quality and customer satisfaction are key ingredients. These two paradigms are rather different concepts; however, they are closely correlated. (Sureshchandar, 2003). The purpose of this study was to describe how customers perceive service quality and whether they are satisfied with services offered by Ekta Books. The thrust of this study was to compose an assessment of service quality and customer satisfaction in Ekta Books one of the pioneers in book publishing and distribution in Nepal. It is one among the line of a few book publishers that have successfully completed a long journey. Its quality in both material and content in textbooks and academic books is unrivalled. The questionnaire was developed and distributed using a convenience sampling technique among 100 respondents in the Kathmandu Valley. From the analysis, it was found that the overall service quality in Ekta Books was relatively high and that the customers were satisfied with the services of Ekta Books. Further, the analysis proved that the dependency of customer satisfaction on the quality of services and that this relationship was a very high positive correlation. The respondents were found satisfied with the speed of delivery, reliability, quality and value-for-money for the products and services. It appears that the company is very much concerned with the satisfaction of clients as it promptly responded to the issues of customer complaints and dissatisfaction. The researcher makes a few recommendations based on the findings of the study. First of all, the management of Ekta Books should pay attention to improve the service quality and other factors which may lead to customer satisfaction thereby improving its performance and the overall brand image and profitability of the Company.

From COVID-19 to the Central Dogma

Students often struggle with visualizing protein structures when working with two-dimensional textbook and lecture materials, so introducing them to 3D visualization software developed by and for structural biologists offers them a unique opportunity to work with authentic data while furthering their spatial reasoning skills and understanding of molecular structure and function. This article presents an active learning virtual laboratory in which students use authentic structural biology data to investigate the effects of both hypothetical and real-world SARS-CoV-2 mutations on the virus’s ability to bind to human ACE2 receptors and infect a host, causing COVID-19. Through this activity, introductory-level college students or advanced high school students gain a better understanding of applied biology, such as how vaccines and treatments are designed, as well as strengthening their understanding of core disciplinary concepts, such as the relationship between protein structure and function and the central dogma of molecular biology. While there were challenges during the pilot phase of activity development due to COVID-19 restrictions, students in the pilot groups came away from the activity with deeper understanding of the relationship between proteins and amino acid sequences and a new appreciation for the ways researchers design treatments for and study viruses.

This study resulted in the findings describing Mahmud Yunus' reform efforts in the development of Arabic teaching materials in Indonesia, as follows: First, the birth of Arabic textbooks was based on the results of Mahmud Yunus' study which showed that the Arabic language book material that came from Middle East was not based on student needs. Indonesia, and the two textbook materials compiled by Mahmud Yunus are contextualized, and oriented towards student life.

Quantitative measurement of birefringence in transparent films across the visible spectrum

Common transparent polymer films, such as cellophane and household tape, are frequently used as examples of birefringent materials in textbooks and classroom demonstrations. Qualitatively, birefringence is often demonstrated by layering such films between crossed-polarizers. In this work, we describe an inexpensive experimental setup for the quantitative measurement of birefringence in common household films, suitable for senior high school or undergraduate labs. Whereas traditional approaches for polarization-based classroom experiments typically use monochromatic laser light, we encourage the combined use of an incoherent incandescent light source and a portable spectrometer. In addition, we demonstrate how any concomitant thin-film interference effects can be used to separately measure the optical thickness in the most heterogeneous and uniform films. Such measurement can then be used as an independent experimental confirmation of either the film's index of refraction or its thickness, given knowledge of the other. In an effort to provide examples for the data analysis procedures as well as to investigate a range of materials, we measure the birefringence across the visible spectrum of six common household polymer films, including thin kitchen wrap, cellophane, gift basket film, and common adhesive tapes.

Implementasi Program Penguatan Pendidikan Karakter Siswa Melalui Cerita Rakyat

Character Education Strengthening Program (PPK) in schools can be done one of them through learning local folklore. This paper discusses the implementation of strengthening student character education through local folklore. The method used is observation, interviews and classroom action research with a sample of SMAN 13 Maros class XII. The results of the study were concluded through three stages, namely: 1) the results of observations of the Indonesian language learning textbook material used showed that the material for strengthening character education through local folklore had not been included. 2) After carrying out literary learning modeling with local folklore material, it shows an increase in students' understanding of several folklore titles, characters, various characters, story content, and setting. 3) there is an increase in students' understanding of the story text regarding the characters of the story characters such as brave characters, patient characters, loyal characters, and intelligent characters.

TEACHING PUBLIC SPEECH OF SENIOR STUDENTS TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE PROGRAM AND MATERIALS OF THE UKRAINIAN LANGUAGE TEXTBOOK

The article considers the issue of the organization of the educational material on Rhetoric at the final stage of learning the Ukrainian language subject in grades 10–11 of secondary schools. The present paper is focused on analyzing program requirements, implementation of program requirements in the Ukrainian language textbooks and guidelines based on changing the content of lessons on the development of coherent speech at secondary school as the basis of the final stage of learning Ukrainian – improving public speaking (monologue, dialogue, polylogue) at the lessons of Rhetoric. The definition of the concept «public speaking» has been offered as a special genre variety of speech activity indicates the ability to influence listeners in monologues, dialogues or polylogues in order to learn, persuade, encourage, enjoy aesthetic pleasure, etc. by means of speech. Planning and implementation of the study of the section «Rhetoric» is demonstrated in the Ukrainian language programs for grades 10–11 and in textbooks at the theoretical and practical levels. The programs pay attention to the text-centric approach to the study of the Ukrainian language in general and Rhetoric in particular. The explanatory note of the program contains information about the study of the basics of Rhetoric ‑ the theory and practice of perfect speech, convincing, appropriate, effective; education of a rhetorician as a worthy citizen, competent in public speaking; determination of norms and rules of public argumentation and criteria for evaluation of oral speech activity.
 Having analyzed the programs and textbooks in the Ukrainian language for the 10th and 11th grades, we conclude that the proposed textbook material is valuable and important for teaching public speaking, but it does not correspond to the content of the programs. Practical tasks have a multi-vector orientation, there is no system in which knowledge and skills would function as a single coherent organism. Taking into consideration the results of the analysis of the Ukrainian language program for the 10th and 11th grades in public speaking and analyzing the relevant textbooks, we offer theoretical and practical material for teaching the seniors oral public speaking based on what they have studied in school. The proposed knowledgeable material for the 10th and 11th grades contains information on public speaking aimed at developing skills: to plan, model communication situations, produce texts based on natural or artificial situations, make a plan of speech (invention), produce compositional parts of the text, argue (disposition), choose figures and phrases (elocution), choose paths and stylistic figures (eloquence), memorizing a speech (memory), say a monologue (action), express a personal attitude to what is heard etc. The materials of the textbook should demonstrate what is planned in the program at the theoretical and practical levels for the acquisition of knowledge and the formation of public speaking skills.

Analysis of Environmental Education Materials in Islamic Religious Education and ‎Character Textbook for Senior High School


 Abstract: The environment education (PLH) material has almost no place in the Islamic Religious Education and character (PAI-BP) textbooks for senior high school levels. Evidently, in the textbooks for grades 10, 11, and 12, none of the chapters specifically contains PLH. Even if there is PLH material, it is integrated into certain chapters with very limited descriptions. In contrast, the environment is one of the important aspects of Islamic teachings, especially in human relations with other creatures and the natural surroundings. Therefore, preserving­ in an Islamic perspective, the environment is not only a noble act but also rewarding worship. On the other hand, destroying the environment is not just an act of violation but also a sin that is threatened with punishment. For this reason, the government needs to revise the curriculum in order to adequately increase the content of PLH material in PAI-BP lessons. This, in the short term, aims to overcome the shortage of PLH materials, PAI-BP teachers need to optimize PLH through habituation, providing examples of clean living and clean environmental activities.

Textbooks and Teaching Materials in Rural Schools: A Systematic Review

This paper presents the results of a research project whose main purpose is to analyse the concept of multigrade teaching resources and the teaching materials used by teachers in rural schools, in particular the role of textbooks. The use and dimensions of teaching materials are studied in order to promote inclusion and learning in multigrade classrooms with children of different ages mixed together. The present systematic review aims to identify and analyse all of the research papers published internationally on teaching resources in rural schools for the Web of Science and Scopus databases (from 1992 to 2021) and Google Scholar (between 2010 and February 2021). Due to the dearth of publications focused on the topic of study, the reviewed articles have broad inclusion and exclusion criteria. This gives relevance and an innovative character to the research, allowing us to objectify the state of the question on multigrade didactic materials and their relation to teaching-learning processes. From a total of 332 research papers in the field of rural multigrade teaching identified for further analysis, only papers that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria and passed all phases of the PRISMA flow diagram were used (N = 33). Some research publications contributed to identifying opportunities and needs, and to suggesting criteria to be taken into account for the selection and creation of materials to promote inclusion and active learning methodologies. The first results show the need to create one’s own materials that analyse the reality of these schools, as well as the need to personalise and adapt printed or digital textbooks and other teaching materials in order to involve the students actively in the learning process and to respond to the needs of rural students in multigrade classrooms.

“It can be a bit tricky”: negotiating disciplinary language in and out of context in civics classrooms

ABSTRACT This article focuses on how Grade 6 students interactionally make meaning out of subject-related language encountered in civics textbook material by searching for synonyms and engaging in discussions. Employing ethnographically-inspired methods, data was collected through observations and audio recordings of civics teaching in two linguistically diverse classrooms in which the students were taught in the majority language, Swedish. In the article, oral classroom interaction is perceived as a crucial part of the meaning-making social practice in which students’ disciplinary literacy is developed. Key analytical concepts are discursive shifts and discursive mobility – the ability to move between and within different discourses. The results show that the use of online dictionaries promoted decontextualizing processes in which the students unsuccessfully tried to negotiate multiple abstract meanings that, in many cases, were unrelated to the disciplinary content. In other exchanges, the adults gave interactional support by contextualizing the words and expressions in content-relevant ways and pointing out recognizable parts of words. In some cases, the teacher instead drew attention to words that have different meanings, which complicated the content-relevant understanding of the words. Implications for working with subject-related vocabulary in ways which support rather than hinder disciplinary understanding are discussed.

Textbooks and Learning Materials in Physical Education in the International Context: Literature Review

This paper presents a review of the research carried out internationally in recent years regarding textbooks, teaching materials, and the field of physical education. The objectives to which this article aims are as follows: To offer a compilation of current research papers published in the Scopus, Web of Science, and Dialnet databases and to provide a classification of the research lines undertaken on the subject. The information used is based on a review of studies listed in Scopus, Web of Science, and Dialnet. For this, a systematic review was carried out with the terms: “curricular resources”, “didactic materials”, “digital resources”, “educational resource”, “physical education”, and “textbooks”, allowing the selection of original articles, which included information on this line of research. For the literature review, only articles that presented scientific evidence were used, discarding merely descriptive articles or didactic experiences that were not investigated with the scientific protocol. A total of 589 articles were found, although after applying the review’s inclusion criteria, they were reduced to 54 articles. The investigations do not follow a common protocol and the researchers address multiple objectives in them, highlighting the studies on the implicit ideological discourse in the images of physical education textbooks. The results reveal a diversity of research, in particular, studies involving ideological discourse. Insofar as methodology, content analysis of textbooks and materials was the most common approach.
