Meningkatkan Keaktifan Siswa Pembelajaran Pak Model PBL Berbasis Symbolic Way Kelas VII SMP Xaverius 2 Jambi

This study aims to improve student learning outcomes in Catholic Religious Education and Character Education through the application of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model based on the Symbolic Way. The issue faced is the lack of active student engagement in Catholic Religious Education classes. The method used in this research is Classroom Action Research conducted in two cycles. Each cycle consists of planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. The method believed to be effective in increasing student engagement is the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model based on the Symbolic Way. The PBL model allows students to engage in learning knowledge related to the problem and develop skills to solve it, while the Symbolic Way as a learning medium refers to the use of self-symbols, representations, or visual aids that can help students understand more abstract concepts. The results show that the application of the PBL model based on the Symbolic Way significantly enhances student learning motivation. The average score of students in the implementation of PBL in the first cycle was 80, increasing to 90 in the second cycle. Additionally, observations of student activities indicate an increase in active participation during the learning process. Thus, it can be concluded that the PBL model is effective in enhancing students' active participation.

Meningkatkan Keaktifan Siswa Kelas IV Fase B dalam Pembelajaran Agama Katolik Melalui Model Problem-Based Learning (PBL) di SDN 15 Teluk Pongkal

This study aims to enhance the activity of fourth-grade students in Phase B of Catholic Religious Education at SDN 15 Teluk Pongkal through the implementation of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model. PBL was chosen because it encourages students to think critically and actively participate in the learning process. In this learning approach, students are engaged in solving problems that are relevant to their daily lives. The research findings indicate that the average test score of students significantly improved from 69 in Cycle 1 to 80 in Cycle 2. This increase reflects the effectiveness of the PBL model in enhancing the learning process. Additionally, the P3 observation data showed that student activity also rose, with an average of 53% in Cycle 1 and increasing to 67% in Cycle 2. Thus, the implementation of the PBL model not only improves students' academic scores but also strengthens their engagement in learning. Through this approach, students are expected to become more active, critical, and creative in addressing various problems they encounter. This study contributes significantly to the development of more interactive and engaging teaching methods, especially in the context of Catholic education.

How much active teaching should be incorporated into college course lectures to promote active learning?

A long-standing controversy in the learning sciences involves the appropriate balance between more didactic forms of instruction (e.g., lecture) and those that involve more active teaching (e.g., student learning activities). There have been calls for second generation research that examines how much class time should be allocated to student learning activities and how much to lecture to maximize student learning in college courses—a question of the appropriate mix of instructor lecture and student activity. The purpose of the present study was to systematically compare the effects on learning outcomes of two mixtures of learning activities and lecture during a college course on research methods: mostly lecture (consisting of ∼67 % to 75 % lecture and ∼25 % to 33 % learning activities), and mostly activity (consisting of ∼67 % to 75 % learning activities and ∼25 % to 33 % lecture). In a between-subjects design, students in a research-methods in psychology course experienced in-class lessons that were mostly lecture or mostly activity across two different lessons. Participants in the mostly activity condition scored significantly higher on an assessment of learning than those in the mostly lecture condition for a lesson on single-case research designs (d = 0.38) which was less complex but performance between the two instructional conditions was similar for the lesson on direct observational methods which was more complex. Theoretical implications involve potential refinements to generative learning theory. Practical implications involve recommendations for when to provide high amounts of student learning activities during a class period.

Organizational Implementation of Exercise Is Medicine® On Campus Programs

ABSTRACT Introduction The Exercise is Medicine® On Campus (EIM-OC) program, a physical activity initiative for universities, has a high potential for scalability and sustainability. Through EIM-OC’s recognition program, campuses achieve Gold-level status through the implementation of exercise referral. The current implementation and effectiveness of EIM-OC referral programs to increase student physical activity or health is largely unknown. The purpose of this study was to determine the implementation of the EIM-OC referral process and current assessments of effectiveness. Methods A cross-sectional survey of EIM-OC representatives currently at Gold-level campuses was conducted between April 1 and August 1, 2023, using the Practical, Robust Implementation and Sustainability Model (PRISM) framework. Results Thirty-three of 85 contacted campuses submitted complete responses. Of the eight campuses reporting all physical activity screening information, a total of 5682 individuals were screened. Of those who were screened, 356 (6.3%) individuals were referred to an exercise professional, with 135 (38.0%) following through with the referral. Half of campuses collected additional physical activity information (e.g., self-report surveys or accelerometers), 30% collected physical health (e.g., anthropometrics or blood) and/or mental health (e.g., depression symptoms or quality of life) measures, and 15% collected educational outcomes (e.g., grades). Approximately 20% of campuses reported a willingness to share data in a repository, depending on the measure, with others sharing concerns of confidentiality and institutional review board limitations. Only 36% of responding campuses tracked physical activity or health outcomes following the initial visit to assess effectiveness. Exercise programs included personal training only (n = 10), exercise prescription/health coaching (n = 12), or both (n = 8). Conclusion Although Gold-level campuses are generally successful in the assessment of physical activity, strategies are needed to improve the reach of EIM-OC programs, specifically implementation strategies to increase the number of individuals screened and successful follow-ups. Additional standardized measures and tracking are needed to determine the effectiveness of EIM-OC programs on improving student physical activity and health.

Comparison of physical activity and leisure benefits of Turkish and Polish students participating in the Erasmus program in Poland

This study aims to compare the personal statements of Turkish and Polish students in the Erasmus Student Exchange Program in Poland, focusing on the benefits of physical activity and leisure time. It also examines how these practices function among Turkish and Polish students within the framework of EU Higher Education Policies. Since 2004, Turkey has participated in EU programs like Socrates, Erasmus, and Leonardo da Vinci. Although Turkey’s involvement in the Erasmus Program is relatively recent, the number of students participating in study abroad programs is rapidly increasing. This study investigates the benefits of physical activity and leisure time for Turkish and Polish students in the Erasmus Program. Data was collected using the "International Physical Activity Questionnaire" and the "Leisure Time Utilization Scale." These tools were administered online to 60 students (30 Turkish and 30 Polish) living in Poland. Participants provided informed consent before participating. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences). The analysis showed no significant differences between the two groups in terms of physical activity participation and leisure activities. Both groups preferred similar physical activities during their free time. The recreational activities they tried for the first time were mainly sports-related, and their ability to meet their recreational needs was similar.

Социальные и политические основания конструктивной девиации студенческой молодежи: анализ цифровых следов в региональных сетевых сообществах

Deviant behavior is a popular research topic. The article examines interdisciplinary approaches to its causes, types, and consequences in university students. Constructive deviation is a relatively new phenomenon, which requires systematization and formalization. The current socio-political changes encourage certain socially significant values and helping behavior practices, which makes it possible to develop social resources, as well as social, intellectual, and civic potential in young people. The authors studied internet activities of first-year university students to reveal the social and political prerequisites of constructive deviation. These foundations included the institutional conditions for the development and implementation of the state youth policy, youth initiatives, helping behavior practices, hypernormality, such socially significant values as patriotism and altruism, etc. The sociological interpretation of constructive deviation clarifies the challenges that are relevant for young people and directions for their social consolidation.

Personalities of professional heroes in the musical pedagogy of the South Urals

The article continues a series of studies by the authors devoted to the consideration of the activities of famous musicians-teachers of the South Urals in the heroic paradigm – as outstanding masters who have achieved impressive results in pedagogical work, have received wide public recognition, are perceived by the professional community as a model of service to their cause and an axiological guideline for the younger generation. The purpose of this work is to present the activities of famous musical teachers of the Southern Urals in an integrative context. In this article, the personalities of outstanding teachers of the P.I. Tchaikovsky South Ural State Institute of Arts (hereinafter referred to as the Tchaikovsky Law School) - E.G. Bykov (balalaika), V.V. Kozlov (guitar), A.A. Heineman (French horn, orchestral conducting) are chosen for study. The methodology consists in using an integrated approach and synthesis of research methods in pedagogy, art history, and cognitive linguistics. The scientific novelty of the article lies in the fact that the heroization of the personality of the teachers-musicians of the Tchaikovsky YUrGII is revealed integratively: in the didactic aspect (creation of their own outstanding pedagogical school), culturological (enrichment of cultural achievements of the region through fruitful and highly productive creative work of professional heroes), communicative (establishment of stable artistic communication with the public through creative activity of students), axiological (formation of reference principles and methods of work of a professional teacher, acting as axiological guidelines for the younger generation of musicians). The theoretical significance is expressed in a systematic and consistent study of the pedagogical heritage of outstanding masters of art of the South Urals, which allows us to enrich the history of the development of the Tchaikovsky School as one of the leading creative universities in the region. As a result of the research, the hypothesis is proved that the activities of outstanding musical teachers should be considered as a phenomenon of the spiritual culture of society in the unity of transformative, cognitive, value-oriented, communicative potential, and only integrative perception allows us to identify aspects of the glorification of personality most fully and in relief.

Empowering Students to Understand Climate Change and Recognize Disinformation

Climate change caused predominately by carbon dioxide (CO2) from fossil fuel use is a critical issue for our future. It is incumbent on science educators to learn about it and teach it in ways that illustrate the power of science to understand climatic changes and model past, present, and possible climate futures. It is equally important for educators to address alternative explanations that do not cause present warming. We provide sufficient background to understand the effects of atmospheric CO2 on climate, how we know past values of both CO2 and temperature, and how mathematical models lead to a quantitative understanding and predictions of increases in temperature on doubling atmospheric CO2. We discuss alternative but incorrect explanations for present warming that are employed by those who use misinformation and disinformation to take attention away from the main cause, the burning of fossil fuels. Guided student activities are provided to help students develop an understanding of the causes and strategies to mitigate the worst effects of climate change. We must provide students with a sound understanding of climate change to empower them with the knowledge to make effective choices. Informed students can develop into agents of change as we prepare them to live in their changing climate futures.
