Investigating The Effectiveness of Using WhatsApp Messenger in Vocabulary Learning Among the Indonesian Learners

The utilization of mobile technology has given birth to a new form of learning called mobile learning, which can facilitate students in learning the English vocabulary words. Vocabulary learning through mobile phone allows learners to have spaced repetition on vocabulary items. Whereas the penetration of WhatsApp Application in Indonesia keeps climbing, little research has explored the application of WhatsApp in vocabulary learning. The purposes of the study were (a) to examine whether WhatsApp collaborative vocabulary learning is more effective than the non-collaborative one (b) to investigate the advantages and disadvantages of vocabulary learning via WhatsApp based on the collaborative and non-collaborative learning methods and to examine which one is more effective. There were 50 students from two classes of English from Universitas Krisnadwipayana in Indonesia that were assigned to two groups: The collaborative learning group (the experimental group) and the non-collaborative learning group (the control group). They had to learn 75 words during 25 days of treatment. After the treatment, both group had to take a post-test. As a final step, both groups had to write a written reflection on the advantages and disadvantages of learning vocabulary through the WhatsApp based on the learning method that they used. As a result, from two-tailed independent samples T test, it was found that the experimental group outperformed the control group. Then, from the written reflection, it was indicated that the experimental group showed more positive attitudes toward the collaborative vocabulary learning via WhatsApp Messenger while those in the control group showed more neutral attitudes toward the non-collaborative learning. Based on those facts, it could be concluded that the collaborative vocabulary learning via WhatsApp Messenger was more effective than the non-collaborative one.

“五育并举”视域下义务教育研学模式构建研究

Building a education system of “simultaneous development of five educations” is a complex systematic project, but it is also an important measure to cultivate qualified socialist builders and successors. As a new form of learning that can promote the implementation of quality education and promote the deep integration of textbook knowledge and life experience, research-based learning is essential. Due to the completion of research and exploration in China, there are still problems such as incomplete mechanisms, unclear models, and inadequate understanding. This article relies on the National Research and Learning Practice Education Base for Primary and Secondary School Students, taking the “The Old House of Zhou Family” research activity as an example, adopts a design based research paradigm, and through three rounds of iterative research, constructs a compulsory education research model from the perspective of “simultaneous development of five educations”. It proposes four specific suggestions for carrying out research, including adhering to the educational nature of research, strengthening the construction of research bases, standardizing the management of research activities, and deepening theoretical research on research.

Early Childhood Social Skills Development Through Hyflex Learning (Flexible Hybrid)

Social skills need to be familiarized from an early age because children will carry these habits into adulthood. This study aims to find a learning model to develop social-emotional skills through hyflex learning. Face-to-face, hybrid (blended) learning should give early childhood flexibility to learn. HyFlex learning gives students choices about how they attend class through face-to-face, synchronous, and asynchronous technology. An alternative to achieving this goal is to develop a hybrid learning model that can be used to teach these early childhood social skills. The HyFlex Learning Model is a new form of learning in early childhood education. The selection of the model is based on the initial needs analysis in DKI Jakarta, where most ECCE educators need a learning model to develop children's social performance that can be applied during the Face-to-Face Meeting period to learning activities in PAUD which is limited in nature can be done optimally. The method used is research and development (Research and Development) which includes activities (1) researching and collecting information, including reading literature, observing classes, and preparing reports on development needs, (2) planning prototype components to be developed, (3) developing initial prototypes; (4) conduct limited trials, (5) revise, (6) test results, (7) revise product designs, (8) conduct field trials operationally, (9) make final revisions to the media, and (10) disseminate to various parties. The results of the model trial conducted obtained an assessment percentage of 83% with a decent assessment category, so this model is suitable for teaching Social Skills.

Increasing Teacher Knowledge and Skills in Learning to Play Projects in PAUD

This service activity aims to improve the competence of ECCE teachers in the implementation of the Independent Curriculum. The launch of the Independent Curriculum in 2022 has an impact on schools to change the learning strategies applied. Project play strategy is a new form of learning implemented in the application of the Independent Curriculum. This difficulty is experienced by partners, because of limited understanding of the implementation of play projects that do not just mean assigning assignments to students. The solution offered is assistance for the construction of knowledge and skills discourse in designing project play activities as an integrative learning process. Mentoring methods include the stages of Identifying Needs, Designing Teaching Modules and Implementing Classes. The activity was carried out in one of the partner kindergartens of the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, University of Muhammadiyah Jember, attended by 10 teachers. The results of this activity are expected by teachers to be able to compile teaching modules based on the Profil Pelajar Pancasila which are integrated into learning activities based on learning objectives.

Learners’ characteristics and the mastery of digital education during the COVID-19 pandemic in students of a medical faculty in Germany

BackgroundIn response to the spread of the coronavirus, educational institutions have been closed and digital education has become a new teaching method to ensure the continuity of medical education. Since this format was a new form of learning for students at medical faculties in Germany, little is known about the perception of it and the factors that contribute to successful mastery. The current study aimed to analyze students’ learning experiences during the first online semester and to identify associations between learners’ characteristics and enjoyment, mastery experiences, as well as the perceived stress level.MethodsIn this cross-sectional study, students of a medical faculty from Germany answered an online questionnaire including information about perceptions towards digital education and learners’ characteristics (study skills and dispositions). Data were analyzed using multivariate linear regression analysis.ResultsIn total, 383 students responded to the online survey. A majority of students felt at least somewhat worse about their studies compared to before the pandemic. Success of study tasks was related to preferences for cooperative learning (B = − 0.063, p < .001) and success of study organization was associated to the use of metacognitive learning strategies (B = 0.019, p = .04). Enjoyment of studying in times of digital education was positively related to the use of metacognitive strategies (B = 0.049, p = .04) and self-efficacy (B = 0.111, p = .02). The perceived stress was influenced by cognitive strategies (B = 0.401, p = .02) and test anxiety (B = 0.466, p < .001).ConclusionsAlthough students perceive digital teaching as a good alternative for big courses, those with low self-efficacy beliefs and low self-regulation have problems in coping with the demands of this learning format and need further support.

Millennials' Perceptions of M-learning in Higher Education in Developing Countries: The Role of Social Influence

Technology has brought about various changes in the teaching and learning industry. This has further led to a new form of learning known as M-learning. Meanwhile, the attributes of students have changed over time. A new generation of learners known as millennials have varying demands from bodies of knowledge as compared to their preceding generations. millennials have been acquainted with technology for most of their life. Considering these facts, this study seeks to determine factors affecting millennials’ perceptions of M-learning in higher education. An online questionnaire based on a fusion of the Technology and Acceptance Model with the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology framework was used to survey 103 millennials at a university in a developing country. Structural Equation Modelling was used to analyze data. The findings revealed that social influence has a statistically significant impact on millennials’ intention to use M-learning. The geographical location and contextual environment may amplify social influence as a prime factor motivating millennials’ intention to use M-learning. Universities, governments, and other learning institutions should consider this for more suited provisioning of M-learning solutions in higher education.

ONLINE LEARNING DURING COVID-19 PANDEMIC IN AFRICA: A WAKE-UP CALL ON THE EDUCATIONAL SECTOR

The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic which emanated from Wuhan city, China and its successive spread across the globe has made a tremendous impact on virtually all spheres of human endeavors; ranging from economy, health, livelihood, and education amongst others. The widespread restrictions currently placed on movement and mass gatherings have made educational and academic activities to be grounded globally. In recent times, the concept of learning has gradually transitioned from traditional classroom methods to online learning where students acquire knowledge through “invisible classrooms”. Most institutions of learning in Africa may encounter difficulties in migrating to this new form of learning due to the lack of information and communications technology (ICT) facilities of international standards. As of today, many students possess internet-enabled devices, yet cannot access the internet as a result of unaffordable data subscription, which has made most learners result in using their devices for non-educational purposes. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to ravage the African continent, the possibility to re-open our schools remain bleak. Thus, government, authorities, and regulatory bodies in individual countries must improve on their existing ICT infrastructures for a better online learning experience. This paper serves as a wake-up call on Africa and its educational sector to transit to online learning.

Kesehatan Mental Remaja Usia SMA Selama Pandemi Covid 19 (Studi Komparatif Pondok Pesantren Dan Sekolah Umum)

This study aims to compare mental health conditions between students who attend islamic boarding schools and those in public schools that are assessed during the Covid 19 pandemic. It is hoped that using a literature study approach and qualitative methods through open questionnaire techniques and interviews, it will be possible to present a true picture of the mental health situation in both students today. The results showed that students attending boarding schools were more vulnerable to mental health risks compared to students who attended public schools. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused symptoms of PTSD and depression among adolescents aged 16 to 19. This symptom is more commonly experienced by students who attend islamic boarding schools. In general, most respondents are satisfied with online education, but still most students are not comfortable with this new form of learning. The results provide insight into under-researched subjects, helping to highlight potential intervention points to support community mental health programs in the boarding school student population.

Effects of Online Learning Support Services on University Students’ Learning Satisfaction under the Impact of COVID-19

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, many university students have transitioned from face-to-face education in the classroom to online learning. Online learning support services (OLSS) have helped university students adapt to this new form of learning. However, the quality of OLSS may influence learning experiences and satisfaction with online learning. High-quality OLSS could improve the effectiveness of online learning and improve satisfaction rates, thus better meeting students’ education requirements. Therefore, it is of great value for us to explore the effects of OLSS on university students’ learning satisfaction. This study proposed three hypotheses to evaluate the effects of three dimensions of OLSS (cognitive support, emotional support, and management support) on the learning satisfaction of university students. Data were collected through a survey and were then analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modeling (SEM). We found that cognitive, emotional, and management support services each had positive correlations with the learning satisfaction of university students. Overall, our results suggest that learning support services should focus on the cognitive, emotional, and management aspects of online learning, thereby meeting personalized learning needs, improving service quality, and promoting online learning.

DISTANCE LANGUAGE LEARNING AS SCHOOL LEARNERS PERCEIVE IT

Application of Computer Technology in Early Education Courses of Higher Vocational Schools

With the the development of science and technology, Many families with preschool children will begin the early education phase. We found that the development of early education is beneficial to children’s intellectual development and improvement. The main content of early education is to combine with a new education method in the 21st century, parents and children walked into each other’s world. But everyone does not know that early education in higher vocational colleges has also become a new form of learning. Early education in higher vocational colleges is the early penetration of professional courses. Facing the era when college students are everywhere, the competition among college students has become more and more fierce. The employment pressure of college students is very high. The employment rate is different in each city. They have relative numbers of jobs. However, the number of college students exceeds the needs of the position. This paper analyzes and studies the status of early education professional courses in higher vocational colleges.

MODELLING PROCESS AS AN INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGY IN LANGUAGE TEACHING PROCESS

&#x0D; Modelling has to be considered as a new form of learning or as a facilitation of learning units from the students' side, but also for teachers too in the form of teaching units. From modelling, teachers demonstrate units or different teaching tasks to their students so they can understand them more easily. Modelling it is become like a bridge between students and teachers too, because from it all the lessons become more clear. Through modelling, students are actively involved in the learning process and interactive methods enable students to take initiatives. They combine initiatives, talk on behalf of the group in which they carry out their work, create new communication relationships with each other. And through modelling, the quality of classroom learning increases. Modelling can be useful to provide pupils with a couple of ‘pointer’ questions in order to focus the discussion and to link the discussion to pupils’ prior knowledge. Writing down the main points to emerge from the discussion on the board or a flipchart help to focus pupils and also emphasize the fact that the discussion is a learning activity and not a just a way of filling time. Learning is always an active process. The learner actively constructs her/his learning from the various inputs s/he receives. This implies that the learner needs to be active to learn effectively. Learning is about helping pupils construct their own meaning, not about ‘getting the right answer’, as pupils can be trained to get the right answer without actually understanding the concept.&#x0D; Therefore part of this Seminar’s paper are types of language’s teaching modelling, advantages and disadvantages of this strategy then some of examples described in the classroom education process. Towards that in this paper we tried to give some definitions given from foreign and native authors, who have talked about the modelling process into language teaching.&#x0D; &#x0D; Key words; Challenge, Creativity, Modelling, Method, Strategy.&#x0D; &#x0D; &#x0D; &#x0D;

Distance learning is a social risk factor

The article is devoted to an actual problem – distance learning. Distance learning is a qualitatively new progressive type of training based on modern information technologies and means of communication, the rapid surge of which is caused by the pandemic that has engulfed most of the planet. Interest in the study of the realities of post-industrial society is dictated by the need to study the nature of the transformations that occur with a person under the influence of those technological changes that have penetrated into all spheres of human existence: on the one hand, a new environment is being formed, opening up unlimited opportunities for the accumulation and transmission of information, communication in electronic network communities, on the other – these acquisitions carry potential threats and risks in both the distant and foreseeable future, and to a greater extent, in our opinion, the expected consequences of global modernization pose the greatest threat to such a specific area as education. The subject that caused the greatest number of the most acute discussions was the impact of distance learning on the quality of training of future specialists, on the degree of development of their communication skills. The main task of the article is to justify and argue distance learning as a new form of learning, to identify its problems and positive aspects. The article presents an analysis of theoretical approaches to distance learning for Russian and foreign researchers. Based on the results of a sociological study, the attitude of students to distance learning is revealed, and their assessment of the degree of development of their own communication skills in remote learning is obtained. The authors conclude that distance learning to a certain extent becomes a risk factor, depriving students of the opportunity to develop the qualities that modern conditions require of them: self-organization, self-control, and communication skills. Despite the fact that distance learning has become an integral part of the educational process, we are convinced that this form should only be a part, a component of the educational process, a "safety cushion" in a situation of force majeure. The leading form of educational classes at the university should remain the traditional classroom form of conducting classes as the only form that can prepare a person for life and successful functioning in a risk society

The impact of COVID-19 pandemic outbreak on education and mental health of Chinese children aged 7\u201315\u2009years: an online survey

BackgroundThe emerging of psychological problems triggered by COVID-19 particularly in children have been extensively highlighted and emphasized, but original research in this respect is still lagging behind. Therefore, we designed this study to evaluate the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on mental health and the effectiveness and attitudes towards online education among Chinese children aged 7–15 years.MethodsA detailed questionnaire, comprising of 62 questions was designed and parents or caretakers of 7 to 15 years old children were invited to participate via WeChat, a multi-purpose messaging, social media and mobile payment app, which is widely used by the Chinese population. A total of 668 parents across different regions of China were included.ResultsDuring COVID-19 pandemic, 20.7 and 7.2% children report experiencing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depressive symptoms due to the COVID-19 pandemic. PTSD and SMFQ-P scores are significantly higher in middle school and boarding school students compared to primary and day school students. Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that school system and province of origin are factors significantly associated with developing PSTD symptoms. 44.3% respondents feel online education is effective in gaining knowledge and improving practical and communications skills. 78.0% believe the online education system is efficient. Overall 79.8% respondents are satisfied and children can adapt to this new education system. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we found 1 in five children have PTSD and 1 in 14 children have depressive symptoms.ConclusionIn summary, COVID-19 epidemic has caused PTSD and depression symptoms among Chinese children aged 7 to 15 years. In general, a large proportion of respondents are satisfied with online education, but still a substantial proportion of students are not comfortable with this new form of learning. Authorities should optimize online education systems and implement effective interventions to cope with the psychological effects of COVID-19 on children, as it is affecting the global population and remains uncertain when it will end.

The impact of online learning and distance technologies on the educational process in modern circumstances

Subject. Practiced involuntarily to counteract the spread of the coronavirus in educational institutions, online learning turned to be the only effective solution ensuring the sustainable and uninterrupted educational process in the highly uncertain circumstances the world faced. The managerial decision on online learning induces many implications for everyone involved into the educational process and the educational system. Thus, it can be undertaken again in similar situations in the future. So, we need to have the profound understanding of the mechanism. Objectives. We study what students think about their educational process when they have to learn remotely. Therefore, we identify strengths and weaknesses of online learning. Methods. The methodological framework relies upon proceedings on remote learning and the impact of the digitalization on the educational process. The study involves methods of generalization, comparative analysis, sociological survey. Results. As the sociological survey reveals, students tend to new formats of learning during the pandemic. This is due to a lack of personal communication with teachers and their classmates. Conclusions and Relevance. Referring to most of the respondents, we conclude that the new form of learning proved to be rather effective in the current situation when people have to work and learn remotely during the coronavirus pandemic.

Distance Education in Higher Education: The Perspective of Key Social Actors

This article considers the perspective of the key social actors (students, teachers and university management) regarding distance education development in Russia. In the modern information and digital age, distance education – based on the possibility of disseminating knowledge through modern computer technologies – is being actively introduced into the Russian higher education system. The pace of implementation is increasing in Russia, yet its assessment as a new form of learning and teaching is ambiguous. There are clear advantages to this form when compared with traditional face-to-face classroom instruction including: the accessibility of education to a wide audience; the possibility to earn a degree irrespective of place of residence; variability of learning time selection; relatively low tuition fees. At the same time, however, many believe that the quality of education received by distance students is lower than that received via face-to-face teaching, due to both the lack of student’ readiness and the difficulties related to pedagogical process organization and management. This study considers whether distance higher education will continue to develop in Russia. The answer to this question depends to a large extent on the perspective of the key social actors. The study analyses their attitudes to distance education and make the following conclusions: 1) University management generally accept this form because of its economic advantage and attitudes of the higher education authorities. Students also vote in favour, because it allows them to earn a degree without giving up work, family and home-related commitments. The most negative assessment is given by teachers who conduct classes at a distance and can compare distance learning outcomes with those in the traditional face-to-face classroom instruction.&#x0D; Keywords: distance education, quality of education, social actors, students, teachers, university management

Особливості дистанційного навчання студентів факультету фізичного виховання в умовах карантину

The article highlights the features of distance learning and considers the features of the organization of the educational process of students of the Faculty of Physical Education of the State Pedagogical University in quarantine.Quarantine measures impose certain restrictions on the full educational process in higher education institutions and beyond. The question arose: how to provide distance learning for students from different disciplines and physical education is no exception. Therefore, the departments of the Faculty of Physical Education faced the task of more thorough preparation for conducting practical classes, trainings. Students of the Faculty of Physical Education need a special form of education, which would not be inferior to the effectiveness of traditional educational activities adopted in higher education institutions. For sports departments, which provide training for specialists in a particular sport, there is another problem - not using the capabilities of the platform for distance learning. Sports departments work with students mainly in the mode of personal cooperation without providing a distance component of academic disciplines.The article is devoted to one of the current problems of modern education, the organization of distance learning with future specialists in physical education and sports. The article considers the development and current state of distance education in higher education institutions in the process of professional training of students majoring in "Physical Culture and Sports" and "Secondary Education (Physical Education)". The conditions of the educational process using distance technology Moodle. The main advantages of distance learning for students, teachers, as well as the possibility of integrating traditional and distance learning, which generates a new form of learning – blended. The article also presents the negative aspects of using the Moodle system for effective training of future professionals in these specialties.The introduction of distance learning in the teaching of sports and pedagogical disciplines should take place in two directions: in mastering the theoretical section of the curriculum in the discipline using both traditional teaching aids and ICT. When mastering the practical section, it is advisable to use video training, lessons, learning technical elements and motor skills.Modern scientific developments convincingly demonstrate the undeniable advantages of a rational combination of traditional teaching methods with information and communication technologies. The multifaceted problem of formation of research skills in teachers of physical education and sports by means of information and communication technologies is relevant today.Therefore, a modern high school teacher must be mobile, flexible, modern, able to adequately analyze and adapt to new situations and apply existing knowledge, skills and abilities with modern information technology.
