Information systems include networks and internet technology which are an important part of organizational life, one of which is in the world of education. School education must be able to facilitate services for students. Currently there are more and more students studying at Erenos Elementary School. The assessment currently carried out at Erenos Elementary School is manual, namely using Microsoft Excel and producing report cards via Microsoft Word. This manual method can hinder the speed of teacher performance in student assessment and errors can also occur in recording and calculating, so this research aims to create a system that helps teachers in calculating the report card grades of Erenos Elementary School students so that it can be done more quickly and accurately. and accurate. The analysis and design method used in this research is UML (Unified Modeling Language). The results of this research show that a web-based information system can help teachers input student grade data precisely and accurately so as to produce e-reports quickly and accurately. In addition, web-based information systems can produce databases that can be used to analyze student progress and other information.

Characteristics of Adolescents with and without a Family History of Substance Use Disorder from a Minority Cohort.

Family history (FH+) of substance use disorder (SUD) is an established risk factor for offspring SUD. The extent to which offspring psychological traits or the family environment, each of which may be relevant to familial transmission of SUD risk, vary by FH+ in socioeconomically disadvantaged populations is less clear. We compared the family/social environmental and psychological characteristics of 73 FH+ and 69 FH- youth ages 12-16, from a study of parental criminal justice system involvement in a primarily low-income, minority urban population. A latent profile analysis (LPA) empirically identified groups of subjects with similar psychological characteristics, which were then compared by FH+. FH+ youths were found to have greater mean household size, greater parental psychological aggression, and a higher mean number of adverse childhood experiences, even without considering parental SUD. FH+ individuals had lower report card grades according to parental report and were more likely to have a history of externalizing disorders than FH- individuals. However, FH+ was not significantly associated with many psychological characteristics or with the class membership from the LPA. In conclusion, among a population of low-income, minority urban youth, FH+ was associated with differences in the family environment and only subtle differences in individual psychological characteristics.

Psychosocial and Educational Vulnerability of Overweight Children from Urban Schools

Childhood obesity is a pervasive health issue, with multifaceted implications for developmental trajectory. Participants included 5,573 K-5 students enrolled in a high-poverty urban public-school setting. Through an informal yet holistic assessment process, students identified as exhibiting overweight issues were compared to peers not designated as overweight across several relevant categories. Overweight students were more likely to be from lower socioeconomic backgrounds; have a high association with special education service needs; represent a more intensive overall risk level as perceived by student support staff; and mostly exhibit decreased performance in report card grades, standardized test scores, and academic engagement. Results confirm previously documented disparities in school functioning and consideration for at-risk status; this is especially relevant in an underserved context, in which regular access to services may be limited. Therefore, reliance on initial screening measures becomes necessary as a preventative mechanism to better assist children in need and to facilitate intervention planning.

Manajemen Kurikulum Merdeka pada Madrasah Inklusi

This research is a qualitative study which aims to analyze the planning, organization, implementation and evaluation model of the independent curriculum at inclusive madrasas at MI Walisongo Kranji 01 Kedungwuni. Data was collected through interviews, observation and documentation. Meanwhile, data analysis uses the interactive analysis model proposed by Miles and Hubermen. The results show that: 1) Curriculum planning includes discussions between the madrasa head and the madrasa coordinator. This discussion is carried out before a meeting is held with the teacher to discuss activity plans in the learning process using the applied curriculum, 2) Organizing the curriculum includes choosing the right homeroom teacher in the new school year, then designing the lessons that will be delivered, 3) Implementing the curriculum in the form of appropriate learning carried out by the teacher, and this is the responsibility of the class teacher and subject teacher. As for children with special needs, there is an Individual Learning Program (PPI) that has been scheduled, and 4) In curriculum evaluation there are three stages of assessment or assessment which include, diagnostic assessment, formative assessment, and summative assessment. However, in summative assessments related to report card grades, there are differences for students with special needs and normal students. The difference lies in the type of questions given. For normal students, the types of questions include multiple choice, essay and description. Meanwhile, for students with special needs, the types of questions include multiple choice, draw the line, and true-false questions.

The Effects of Housing Price Declines on Children's Educational Outcomes

Abstract We examine the effects that household exposure to housing price declines, captured by measures of negative equity, have on children's academic performance, using data on public school students and housing transactions from the State of Florida. Our empirical strategy exploits variation over time in the timing of family moves to account for household sorting into neighborhoods and schools and selection into initial mortgage terms. In contrast to the existing literature on the effects of foreclosure, we find that students with the highest risk of negative equity exhibit significantly higher test score growth, with the largest effects among Black students and students qualifying for free or reduced-priced lunch. We find evidence supporting two underlying mechanisms: (1) families in negative equity may reduce the impact of income losses on consumption by forgoing mortgage payments, and (2) families exposed to high levels of negative equity may move to schools that received higher average school report card grades. While negative equity and foreclosure are undesirable, negative equity may have encouraged homeowners to forgo mortgage payments to mitigate the impact of the Great Recession, and temporarily reduced the housing market barriers low-income households faced in accessing educational opportunities.

The impact of sports participation on cognitive functions and academic performance among youth aged 10 to 14 years: A comprehensive investigation

Sports practice is essential for young people to perform better in the various pillars of their lives. Considering the maturational stage, this study aimed to investigate the effects of practicing sports on cognitive aspects (inhibitory control) and academic performance (report card).Seventy-five young people aged between 10 and 14 of both sexes were analyzed and divided into two groups: group I (Non-sporty), involved only in school physical education, and group II (Sporty), involved in sports initiation in addition to school physical education. Inhibitory control was assessed using the Go/No Go test and the 5-digit test (FDT). Maturation was determined using the bone age equation, and academic performance was assessed on the basis of school report card grades. There were no significant correlations between bone age, performance on cognitive tests and academic performance based on report card grades (p ≥ 0.05). However, the cognitive tests revealed a significant disparity between the two groups. The sportsmen had significantly fewer errors in all phases of the FDT test (p < 0.05) than their non-sporting peers. In addition, the sports group showed superior inhibitory control, as evidenced by better performance in the Go/No Go test [7.58 ± 0.14; p = 0.001]. It is concluded that regardless of the correlation between maturational development, cognitive aspects and academic performance, systematized sports practice has a beneficial effect on the cognitive abilities of young people, since sports players showed better cognitive performance than non-sports players.

School-Based Intervention for Adolescents With ADHD: Predictors of Effects on Academic, Behavioral, and Social Functioning

Adolescents with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) experience significant academic, behavioral, and social skill difficulties including underachievement, risk for school dropout, poor peer relations, and emotion dysregulation. Although stimulant medication reduces ADHD symptoms, psychosocial and educational interventions are necessary to address functional impairments. We examined the nature and predictors of academic, behavioral, and social skills trajectories in response to multicomponent organizational and interpersonal skills training in 92 high school students with ADHD. Latent trajectory class analyses revealed positive treatment response ranging from 61.5% (report card grades) to 100% (inattention symptoms, organizational skills, social skills). Organizational skill and academic grade treatment response trajectories were predicted by assigned sex, pretreatment anxiety, and treatment dosage, while improvement in behavioral and social functioning was associated with better emotion regulation and family relations prior to treatment along with stronger working alliance with treatment coach at midtreatment. Multicomponent organizational and interpersonal skills training appears effective for most high school students with ADHD and the degree treatment-induced change is associated with multiple malleable factors can be leveraged to enhance intervention response.

Evaluation of school achievements in adolescents with primary hypertension.

Primary hypertension (HT) is a global public health problem with increasing prevalence in recent years. HT may have caused decreased neurocognitive functions and learning difficulties. In this study, clinical characteristics of adolescents with primary HT were examined and the relationship between semester grade point average (GPA) and HT was evaluated. This is an observational, cross-sectional, descriptive study conducted on adolescents with primary HT attending high school. Patient records (number of hospital visits, HT-related complaints, blood pressure measurements, and laboratory tests) were evaluated retrospectively. End-of-semester report card grades of Mathematics, Turkish Language and Literature and English courses were noted, and compared with the clinical characteristics of the patients. The study included 83 patients with a mean age of 15.6±1.2 years. Patients with higher body mass index had lower grades in Mathematics (p=0.007) and Turkish Language and Literature (p=0.004). Patients with HT-related symptoms such as headache, epistaxis and palpitations had lower GPAs for all courses. Also, patients with hyperuricemia or proteinuria had lower semester GPAs compared to patients with normal serum uric acid levels or without proteinuria (p<0.05). GPAs for Mathematics (p=0.000) and Turkish Language and Literature (p=0.006) decrease as the number of hospital visits increases. HT may cause not only cardiovascular complications but also decreased neurocognitive functions through various mechanisms and may have a negative impact on academic skills. Therefore, HT should be followed up with a multidisciplinary approach and intensive efforts should be made to approach the goal of normotension.

Understanding subject choices from report card grades: gender and educational level disparities

ABSTRACT Pupils’ subject choices at the level of secondary education critically determine the tertiary fields of study that they can pursue. This study used multinomial logistic regression models to investigate the extent to which the final report card grades of ninth-grade students predicted their choices of subject combinations at the senior general secondary education (N = 771) and pre-university education (N = 494) levels. Final report card grades determined 55.4% to 64.1% of the pupils’ choices. The most relevant predictors were pupils’ grades for mathematics, history, economics, physics, chemistry, and English language. Differential and interaction effects of educational level and gender were evident. For example, at the level of senior general education, mathematics and chemistry were stronger influencers of the choices of girls than of boys, whereas at the pre-university education level, these subjects were stronger influencers for boys than for girls.

Penerapan Sistem Informasi E-Raport pada Sekolah di Kota Tangerang

Currently information technology has experienced rapid development so that information can be accessed quickly. One of the applications of technology in education today is the existence of an internet-based information system for report card grades or what we usually know as online report cards. This has changed the pattern of society in various aspects, especially the world of education. The e-Raport system is used as an information system designed by schools to inform parents of student progress, which has been implemented in almost all schools in Tangerang City. For example, SMPN 8 Tangerang City is one of the public schools in Tangerang City which uses the e-Raport System as a substitute for manual student learning outcomes reports. The problems raised were the teacher's lack of understanding in accessing e-reports when inputting grades and the lack of understanding of parents in accessing e-reports to see children's development. This research is a literature study that aims to collect information related to the use of online report card information systems implemented by several schools, the results obtained from this literature study are that the online report card system makes it easy for educators to process student value data that can be accessed both by students and parents.

Indicators of physical activity and nutritional status among children and adolescents in Zimbabwe: Findings from three global matrix initiatives

Background/ObjectivesRegular physical activity is associated with several benefits among children and adolescents. Globally, only limited surveillance data, collected using harmonized approaches to accurately compare levels of physical activity among children and adolescents are available. Through its Global Matrix initiatives, Active Health Kids Global Alliance provides an opportunity for participating countries/jurisdictions to compare physical activity levels of children and adolescents based on ten common indicators. The 2022 Zimbabwe Report Card summarizes the best available evidence and assigns grades on these ten indicators of physical activity for children and adolescents. MethodsThrough an iterative process, a team of national experts working in various sectors of physical activity used Active Healthy Kids Global Alliance's Global Matrix benchmarks and grading rubric, to assign Report Card grades on 10 indicators of physical activity (Overall Physical Activity, Organized Sport and Physical Activity, Active Play, Active Transportation, Sedentary Behaviours, Physical Fitness, School, Family and Peers, Community Environment, and Government) among 5-17-year-old children and adolescents in Zimbabwe. Published and unpublished data as well as policy documents informing grades for each indicator were summarized. An unweighted average of all studies with data for an indicator was used to inform the grade assignment. Where data were unavailable or insufficient to provide accurate estimates, an incomplete grade was assigned. The primary purpose of the present study was to synthesize and summarize the best available data and assign grades on 10 common indicators of physical activity for children and adolescents. The secondary objective was to compare Report Grades across three Global Matrix initiatives. ResultsGrades for the ten common indicators for Global Matrix 4.0 plus Nutritional Status (B+) were assigned as follows: Overall Physical Activity (C+), Organized Sport and Physical Activity (B-), Active Play (C+), Active Transportation (B), Sedentary Behaviours (C), Physical Fitness (Incomplete), Family and Peers (Incomplete), School (C), Community and Environment (C-), Government (D). Generally, grades for individual behaviours (Physical Activity, Organized Sport and Physical Activity, Active Play, Active Transportation, Sedentary Behaviours) were higher than for sources of influence (Family and Peers, School, Community and Environment, Government). Across 3 Global Matrices, the grade for Overall Physical activity (C+) did not change, Community and Environment (F, D, C-) steadily improved over time; while those for Active Transportation, Sedentary Behaviours and Sports were unchanged for Global Matrix 2.0 and 3.0, but declined for Global Matrix 4.0. ConclusionAlthough grades for individual behaviours were higher than those for sources of influence, overall, our findings show that the levels of physical activity among children and adolescents in Zimbabwe were lower than recommended. Robust surveillance data with large and representative samples are required to provide accurate estimates of physical activity participation among children and adolescents in Zimbabwe. Furthermore, policies and initiatives that promote equitable physical activity participation among children and adolescents are urgently needed in Zimbabwe.

Economic Freedom, Climate Culpability, and Physical Activity Indicators Among Children and Adolescents: Report Card Grades From the Global Matrix 4.0.

Macrolevel factors such as economic and climate factors can be associated with physical activity indicators. This study explored patterns and relationships between economic freedom, climate culpability, and Report Card grades on physical activity-related indicators among 57 countries/jurisdictions participating in the Global Matrix 4.0. Participating countries/jurisdictions provided Report Card grades on 10 common indicators. Information on economic freedom and climatic factors were gathered from public data sources. Correlations between the key variables were provided by income groups (ie,low- and middle-income countries/jurisdictions and high-income countries/jurisdictions [HIC]). HIC were more economically neoliberal and more responsible for climate change than low- and middle-income countries. Annual temperature and precipitation were negatively correlated with behavioral/individual indicators in low- and middle-income countries but not in HIC. In HIC, correlations between climate culpability and behavioral/individual and economic indicators were more apparent. Overall, poorer grades were observed in highly culpable countries/jurisdictions in the highly free group, while in less/moderately free groups, less culpable countries/jurisdictions showed poorer grades than their counterparts in their respective group by economic freedom. Global-level physical activity promotion strategies should closely evaluate different areas that need interventions tailored by income groups, with careful considerations for inequities in the global political economy and climate change.

Recent Secular Trends in Child and Adolescent Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior Internationally: Analyses of Active Healthy Kids Global Alliance Global Matrices 1.0 to 4.0.

We examined recent global secular trends in 5 indicators of child and adolescent physical activity and sedentary behavior (Overall Physical Activity, Organized Sport and Physical Activity, Active Play, Active Transportation, and Sedentary Behavior) and 4 influences on these (Family and Peers, School, Community and Environment, and Government). Active Healthy Kids Global Alliance letter grades (A+ to F) were assigned numbers from 15 to 2, with 0 assigned for missing/incomplete grades. Trends from Active Healthy Kids Global Alliance Global Matrices 1.0 (2014) to 4.0 (2022) were analyzed using linear mixed-effects models with level of economic development and gender inequity considered as potential moderators. Report card grades were generally relatively stable. Trends generally did not differ significantly by level of economic development (except for Active Transportation and Active Play), but gender inequality did significantly moderate trends for most of the indicators, with higher gender inequality associated with more adverse changes in grades. The number of "incomplete" grades decreased over time, but this did not reach statistical significance. While trends varied within and between countries, physical activity and sedentary behaviors, and the influences on these behaviors globally, were relatively stable over the past decade or so, albeit at undesirable levels.

Global Matrix 4.0 Physical Activity Report Card Grades for Children and Adolescents: Results and Analyses From 57 Countries.

The Global Matrix 4.0 on physical activity (PA) for children and adolescents was developed to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the global variation in children's and adolescents' (5-17y) PA, related measures, and key sources of influence. The objectives of this article were (1)to summarize the findings from the Global Matrix 4.0 Report Cards, (2)to compare indicators across countries, and (3)to explore trends related to the Human Development Index and geo-cultural regions. A total of 57 Report Card teams followed a harmonized process to grade the 10 common PA indicators. An online survey was conducted to collect Report Card Leaders' top 3 priorities for each PA indicator and their opinions on how the COVID-19 pandemic impacted child and adolescent PA indicators in their country. Overall Physical Activity was the indicator with the lowest global average grade (D), while School and Community and Environment were the indicators with the highest global average grade (C+). An overview of the global situation in terms of surveillance and prevalence is provided for all 10 common PA indicators, followed by priorities and examples to support the development of strategies and policies internationally. The Global Matrix 4.0 represents the largest compilation of children's and adolescents' PA indicators to date. While variation in data sources informing the grades across countries was observed, this initiative highlighted low PA levels in children and adolescents globally. Measures to contain the COVID-19 pandemic, local/international conflicts, climate change, and economic change threaten to worsen this situation.

Ortaokul öğrencilerine yönelik Matematiksel Yaratıcılık Testi’nin (MYT) geliştirilmesi

This study presents the development of a mathematical creativity test and exploration of its psychometric properties. The study was conducted in six public schools and a high ability center between 2015 and 2018. The sample of the study included 1129 middle school students. The Mathematical Creativity Test (MCT) consists of problem posing, making conjecture, and proof subtests. Each test has two items. The scores of the MCT are composed of fluency, flexibility, and creativity quotient. For construct validity, EFA yielded a 3-factor solution, namely, problem posing, making conjecture, and proof subtests. CFA confirmed the 3-factor solution, and all fit indices were found to be good. For criterion validity, one-way ANOVA for independent samples was conducted in different classes, and it showed that there was a significant difference, and Pearson's correlation coefficient was investigated between MCT scores and the report card grades of the mathematics lesson. There was a strong and positive correlation between the two variables. The internal consistency and the interrater reliability of the test scores were high.
