Designed activities on developing mental strategies using alms value-based learning trajectory in elementary school

Mental strategies are recognized as an effective approach for solving arithmetic operations such as addition and subtraction. This study focuses on developing and implementing instructional activities aimed at enhancing students' mental strategy skills through the Indonesian Realistic Mathematics Education (IRME) approach. The research employed a design-based methodology involving 2nd-grade students from an Islamic-integrated school in Surabaya. The study followed a research design that emphasizes the development of local instructional theory, encompassing three key phases: the preparatory phase (initial design development), the experimental phase (classroom teaching experiments), and the retrospective analysis phase. Data collection methods included documentation, field notes, and interviews. In the first trial, three instructional activities were conducted. Based on the analysis of the first trial, the number of activities in the second trial was increased to four: "Let's Get Used to Alms Every Day," "Don't Forget Routine Alms This Week," "Set Your Own Pocket Money," and "Let's Give Away Your Alms to Break Mr. Samad’s Fast." These activities were designed to achieve specific mathematical objectives, enabling students to understand and solve addition and subtraction problems using strategies such as skip counting, borrowing, and saving. The retrospective analysis concluded that students successfully learned to perform addition and subtraction operations on both monetary values and ordinary numbers within the designed learning trajectory.

Components of Behavioral Activation Therapy for Depression Engage Specific Reinforcement Learning Mechanisms in a Pilot Study.

Behavioral activation is an evidence-based treatment for depression. Theoretical considerations suggest that treatment response depends on reinforcement learning mechanisms. However, which reinforcement learning mechanisms are engaged by and mediate the therapeutic effect of behavioral activation remains only partially understood, and there are no procedures to measure such mechanisms. To perform a pilot study to examine whether reinforcement learning processes measured through tasks or self-report are related to treatment response to behavioral activation. The pilot study enrolled 13 outpatients (12 completers) with major depressive disorder, from July of 2018 through February of 2019, into a nine-week trial with BA. Psychiatric evaluations, decision-making tests and self-reported reward experience and anticipations were acquired before, during and after the treatment. Task and self-report data were analysed by using reinforcement-learning models. Inferred parameters were related to measures of depression severity through linear mixed effects models. Treatment effects during different phases of the therapy were captured by specific decision-making processes in the task. During the weeks focusing on the active pursuit of reward, treatment effects were more pronounced amongst those individuals who showed an increase in Pavlovian appetitive influence. During the weeks focusing on the avoidance of punishments, treatment responses were more pronounced in those individuals who showed an increase in Pavlovian avoidance. Self-reported anticipation of reinforcement changed according to formal RL rules. Individual differences in the extent to which learning followed RL rules related to changes in anhedonia. In this pilot study both task- and self-report-derived measures of reinforcement learning captured individual differences in treatment response to behavioral activation. Appetitive and aversive Pavlovian reflexive processes appeared to be modulated by separate psychotherapeutic interventions, and the modulation strength covaried with response to specific interventions. Self-reported changes in reinforcement expectations are also related to treatment response. Set Your Goal: Engaging in GO/No-Go Active Learning, #NCT03538535, http://www.clinicaltrials.gov.

“Set Your Soul on Fire”: A Feminist-Informed Co-Constructed Autoethnography of Sixteen Multidiscipline, Multicultural, and Multilingual Globally Located Academic Women Exploring Gendered Academic Productivity During COVID-19

This co-constructed autoethnographic reflection presents the experiences of our feminist-informed research team, COVID GAP (Gendered Academic Productivity), a group of sixteen women who collaborated to investigate reports of reduced academic contributions from women-identified scholars during the pandemic. As insider researchers, we joined together in a virtual space with the shared goal to better understand women academics’ lived experiences of the impact of the pandemic specifically as related to their academic productivity. Throughout our work together as a research team, we have reflected on how the pandemic has impacted each of us as academic women and how participation in the COVID GAP research group provided us with the opportunity to engage in interdisciplinary scholarship and collaboration. We shared our process of co-creating our research team, our intersectionality as academics, and our gendered experiences of how scholarly productivity serves as currency throughout academia. Utilizing quotes from all members, we unified our voices in feminist accord concluding with recommendations for fellow academic women.

HOW TO BE AN ANTIRACIST LEADER

AbstractThe author writes that in the past year, some companies “found themselves unequipped to carry on even the most basic conversations on race in the workplace … leaders had to determine how, or even whether, to implement diversity initiatives that had long languished, or been abandoned, or been repeatedly proven ineffective.” Also: “Black employees in companies were asked to take on entirely new roles, ones they were not compensated for and for which there would be no promotion awaiting them at the end. They quickly became the company’s Free Antiracism Expert.” She outlines 10 questions, in her words: (1) How do you define an antiracist organization? (2) Who are your antiracist initiatives supporting? (3) Are you centering this work on those who are marginalized, not on those who have succeeded? (4) Are you leading the work yourself or relying on your Black employees to do the work for you? (5) Do you know who the supporters and the detractors are on your team? (6) Have you stopped doing what’s not working? (7) Does your data demonstrate inequity? (8) Have you set your goals? (9) Have you set out competencies for success? (10) Do you have the courage to do the work?

Set your mind on it: The mediating role of mindset in the relationship between a learning-from-error climate and work-related flow

This study aims to investigate whether and how a learning-from-error climate is associated with work-related flow experiences by employees. Drawing on the tenets of Job Demands-Resources theory, we propose that this relationship is mediated by a work-related growth mindset. The study tests a mediation model by conducting structural equations modelling. Data were gathered in two waves from 159 employees within a Dutch financial organization. Results demonstrate that work-related mindset significantly mediates the relationship between a learning-from-error climate and work-related flow. In this study, we address the call for studies that empirically assess the influence of organizational climate on work-related flow in a multiwave study design. Specifically, we highlight the relevance of understanding how individual dispositions can shape the effects of a learning-from-error climate on work-related flow.

EXERCISING GRIT IN CHALLENGING TIMES

AbstractThe author begins with an anecdote about the first time she flew an Army Apache helicopter, and the counterintuitive lessons she drew from it that became part of her work as the founder and chief executive officer of The Grit Institute, a leadership development organization. She describes her conceptualization of grit and contrasts it with that of the well‐known grit author/researcher Angela Duckworth. Approaches to risk are discussed: training to push through the places where we feel uncomfortable for any reason requires taking smaller risks, sometimes in other areas. Not only surviving, but thriving through challenges is a dance of reconnecting to foundational principles and being willing to act confidently with only partial information, and take that action with certainty and grounded optimism. Three areas are explored in detail: (1) setting your anchor, (2) leading with audacity, and (3) staying adaptable. For the adaptable leader, grit is still required. But adaptability requires grit as well as confidence and creativity. When faced with obstacles, a leader can shut down or be resigned to circumstance, or a leader can look for opportunity, look for other ways to accomplish goals.
