An Optimized Fractional Nonlinear Grey System Model and Its Application in the Prediction of the Development Scale of Junior Secondary Schools in China

As part of China’s compulsory nine-year education system, junior secondary education (JSSE) plays a vital role in supporting students’ physical and mental development. The accurate prediction of the development scale trend of JSSE is helpful for the government to estimate the scale of educational development within a chosen time frame so as to aid decision making.Nevertheless, China’s education system is complex, highly dimensional, and largely influenced by policy and other factors, which results in difficulty in modeling the education sample. Based on gray system theory, this paper proposes an improved fractional-order grey prediction model, OCFNGBM(1,1), to predict the development scale of JSSE. We describe the basic expressions of the model, the parameter estimation method, and the optimization method for hyperparameters and construct a scheme for optimizing the background value coefficients. Data collected from official websites from 2011 to 2021 are used to build the forecasting model, and data from 2011 to 2017 are used to evaluate the model’s accuracy. Our experimental results indicate that the OCFNGBM(1,1) model has higher accuracy than the classical nonlinear gray prediction model. The OCFNGBM(1,1) model was employed to forecast the development scale of JSSE in China from 2022 to 2024, which provided useful information. This research provides a resource to help the national education department to develop a comprehensive and long-term plan for the development goals, scale, speed, steps, and measures of relevant education.

STUDENTS VIOLENCE AGAINST TEACHERS IN SCHOOL: CASE STUDY OF TEACHER MURDER IN MANADO, NORTH SULAWESI INDONESIA

This research aims to analyze the various causes of students’ violence against teachers in educational institutions. Data was qualitatively obtained from the officials of National Education Department of Manado City, supervisors, the police, teachers, and students of Ichtus Vocational High School through interviews, observations and documentation. From the data, it was analyzed that the school does not have a system for monitoring violence, and teachers believed that every violation needs to be punished. The results showed that verbal violence occurred due to punishment for smoking in the class and coming late to school. The death of a teacher due to bleeding from 9 knife stabs on vital body parts by students, is an example of violence against teachers. Although the perpetrators were charged to a minimum sentence of 20 years imprisoned, the National Education Department of North Sulawesi closed and revoked the operational license of the institution and entrusted the students to the private vocational high school in Manado.

Teachers' Attitudes towards Lesson Study as a Viable Strategy to Improve the Teaching and Learning of Mathematics

The emphasis on high-quality education and professional development of teachers in order to improve the performance of learners in schools continues to be a topic of discussion worldwide in the 21st century. A series of workshops and programmes are therefore being organized for most of the teachers in South Africa in order to prepare them for quality teaching and learning in schools. However, in the interim, learners' performance in mathematics continues to be unsatisfactory in South Africa when compared to learners in other nations. A qualitative approach was used for this study and the article draws data from participatory action research, with a focus on teachers' attitudes towards lesson study as a viable strategy to improve teaching and learning of mathematics in South African schools. A combination of interviews and observations was used to gather data from thirty-five purposefully-selected teachers who participated, together with thirty learners in a lesson study workshop in one of the Universities in South Africa. The study found that teachers displayed a positive attitude towards lesson study even though they had limited time to engage in daily preparation, hence inadequate performance on the part of their learners. The implications drawn from the researcher's findings were that failure to address teacher professionalism, especially regarding the use of lesson study to improve their methods of teaching mathematics, which is likely to derail all other attempts to address learners' poor performance in mathematics. Participants therefore recommended that lesson study be enforced by the national Department of Education to improve teachers' methods of teaching mathematics in South African schools through innovative approaches.

Accelerating the introduction of the case method into Chinese business schools: an action research approach

ABSTRACT This paper is unique in that it demonstrates how a national education department used action research to stimulate the use of the case method of teaching in business schools and other departments in universities in China. It illustrates how four different players; a teacher, her students, a government department in charge of setting education policy and selected faculty in Chinese universities were involved in the research. The research suggests that, contrary to widely held beliefs, given a well-trained and motivated Chinese instructor and careful course design Chinese students will readily accept the case method of teaching. Methods used in influencing potential adopters of the case method are discussed. Current faculty and institutional related barriers to the introduction of the case method are noted along with a proposal to institute the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning as a potential solution. The paper also illustrates how videotapes of classroom processes can be used in multiple ways within an action research project.

School climate in international school settings: differences in teacher perceptions among international and domestic-oriented departments

ABSTRACT The study analyses teachers’ perceptions of school relations and climate in a ‘non-traditional’ international school between the Greek national education departments and the IB department. Comparing perceptions of inwards and outwards oriented departments is relatively neglected in literature which treats schools and their culture(s) as monolithic entities. Cluster sampling was employed, consisting of 300 teachers and 316 parents. The analysis of data was performed using Pearson product moment correlation and one-way ANOVA. Teacher perceptions among the international and the domestically oriented departments diverge in statistically significant ways in fundamental pedagogical dimensions including teacher cooperation and mentoring, issues of fairness and disciplinary control and cooperation and relations with parents. A pluralistic interpretation of school climate can be a more relevant predictor of teacher perceptions than the orthodox monolithic constructs. The results suggest international schools’ research can benefit from resorting to both idiographic and nomothetic research paradigms.
