The Development and Assesment Talent Mapping E-module for Elementary School

The development of students' creativity should be adjusted to their talents so that teachers at schools need to have guidelines for mapping children's talents. This study is conducted to develop and assess the E-module on mapping the talents of elementary students in Aceh. The Design Development Research (DDR) research uses the Alessi and Trolip instructional design model involving 3 experts, 9 PGMI lecturers, and 15 MI teachers in three PTKINs in Aceh. The research instrument is a questionnaire that is analyzed by alpha and beta testing using descriptive analysis. The results of the alpha and beta assessments show that the mean assessment of MI experts, lecturers, and teachers is at a high stage (more than 4.0). Thus, it can be concluded that the talent mapping E-module for elementary students is suitable to use in elementary schools. For further research, it should be able to develop a talent mapping E-module for the high school level and able to be developed using learning technology in the form of E-learning.

Theoretical Assumptions and Validation of a Scale for International Comparative Research on Teachers’ Attitudes Toward Educating Talented Students

The aim of the research was to construct a scale of teachers’ attitudes toward the education of gifted students that could identify the types and predictors of attitudes. The research was prompted by the current lack of tools with good psychometric parameters. A questionnaire was prepared for the needs of an international comparative study on teachers (N = 630) from six Central and Eastern European countries: Belarus, Bulgaria, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, and Ukraine. The theoretical models of giftedness and empirical data both indicated the important role teachers play in the development of students’ giftedness. The teachers’ characteristics were somewhat ambiguous. The article describes the assumptions, construction stages, and validation results of the questionnaire, which contained 64 statements (items) selected from a wide range of opinions after thorough substantive and linguistic consultations. The fundamental descriptive statistics for each item were analyzed. The final selection of items occurred as a result of confirmatory factor analysis, which did not demonstrate sufficient fit between the questionnaire’s theoretical structure and the data. Exploratory factor analysis, on the other hand, allowed for the version of the questionnaire with a three-factor structure to be adopted. Three types of attitudes were identified regarding gifted students’ education: one expressing a negative attitude and two positive ones. As a result of the validation, a scale of attitudes was created with appropriate psychometric characteristics, consisting of 33 items. Further studies are being conducted to interpret the three dimensions of the scale and the variables that differentiate them.

PARADIGMA KEILMUAN DAN FILSAFAT PENDIDIKAN DALAM PEMIKIRAN IBNU SINA

The current crisis in the world of Islamic knowledge and education has resulted in the scientific tradition becoming static, so that Islamic education has not shown its full role in creating an advanced civilization. Islamic education as a goal, tool for change, and social transformation should be directed to accommodate local culture and be future-oriented, namely religious and modern. In Ibnu Sina's view, education should aim to explore and develop the potential of students. The concept of Ibn Sina's thought that education is carried out in stages and given according to their expertise and in accordance with the characteristics: potential, interests and talents of students. Some of Ibn Sina's thoughts on education can and have become material for consideration in the implementation of education in Indonesia because the concept of education conveyed by Ibn Sina is in line with the values of Islamic teachings which originate from the Qur'an and Sunnah. By relevating Ibn Sina's thoughts today, it is hoped that education in Indonesia will develop and be able to achieve the goals of national education contained in the Law on the National Education System.

How the Online Learning Assistant Program Supported Course Instructor Wellbeing during a Transition to Remote Teaching

Abstract When the COVID-19 pandemic emerged, many leisure studies course instructors were asked to transition from in-person to remote teaching. Such a transition affected course instructors’ wellbeing and, in turn, students’ learning experiences in negative ways. At the same time, many talented work-integrated learning students were without work because of challenges faced by organizations that would typically host students. In response to this situation, the University of Waterloo created the Online Learning Assistant (OLA) Program. The programme hired, trained and mobilized over 300 co-operative education students in support of course instructors’ remote teaching. This case describes the positive impact of the OLA Program on one leisure studies course instructor’s wellbeing during a transition to remote teaching. In partnership with the OLA, the instructor created a supportive remote-learning environment for students that resulted in a remote-teaching award. The case offers an example of an innovative work-integrated learning programme that supported teaching and learning in leisure-related education. Information © CAB International 2022

Unforgotten Names. Mikhail Belashov and Georgy Kranz

The article “Unforgotten Names. Mikhail Belashov and Georgy Kranz” is the first in the cycle “VKHUTEIN, VKHUTEMAS. Sculptors. Teachers and Students”, dedicated to the unique creative and educational project, VKHUTEMAS - VKHUTEIN, which laid the foundation and within the framework of which a galaxy of outstanding Russian sculptors, who brought fame to our Fatherland in the fine arts immediately after the end of the Civil War in the country, was prepared. The author analyzes the work of outstanding sculptors. These masters of plastic art had a profound positive impact on the development of Russian and Soviet sculpture both through their creativity and their purposeful teaching activities. A start was made by some sculptors who were then students still studying at the Russe Studio in Paris in 1909. The VKHUTEMAS and VKHUTEIN sculptors-teachers’ pedagogical range was measured by the highest level of knowledge, teaching methods, laid down by the Russian Imperial Academy by taking into account relevant at that time new trends in art, sometimes extremely radical. Fortunately, this basic, main fundamental practice of studying sculptural craft was not interrupted but only improved. The invisible connection of generations of sculptural craft masters did not dissapear completely; it moved forward. The students who studied with the VKHUTEMAS and VKHUTEIN artist-teacher developed the methodology with their followers and students; in their own creative search, they addressed their teacher for advice in moments of artistic searches and doubts. The author of the article points out that such bright teachers-sculptors were the founders of the Russian, Soviet school of sculpture. They were masters and teachers of a whole galaxy of remarkable Russian sculptors who, by their example, their method and creativity, made a huge impact on the development of modern Russian plastic art not only in the USSR but throughout the world. They were organizers and ideological inspirers, active participants in many creative associations of the first third of the 20th century. The author notes that the works of sculptors-teachers and their talented students give us the opportunity to get an idea of their views, worldview, attitude to the creative process and, in general, to the profession of an artist-sculptor. This article presents the dialogues with teachers preserved in the notes and memoirs of students, their statements, which the Author believes is of exceptional relevance not only to the tasks of teaching in the field of sculptural craft, but also to the formation of the worldview of master sculptors and the concept of the school. The author analyzes and convincingly proves by concrete examples that the school of Vkhutein and Vkhutemas is a logically competently built pedagogical system based on the experience and skill of previous generations of artists, going from antiquity and Byzantium and related to classicism to Western European aesthetics and traditions and foundations of the Russian plastic school, its basic foundations and principles, ascending to the geniuses of the Quatrechento era. In this work, the author highlights the creative and pedagogical activities of these teachers and students of I.Efimov, S.Bulakovskiy, B.Korolev, V.Favorskiy, I.Tchaikov, V.Mukhina, N.Nisse-Goldman, M.Aisenstadt, N.Slobodinskaya, D.Schwartz, M.Belashov, A.Zelenskiy, E.Herzenstein, A.Grigoriev, G.Krantz, E.Belashova, I.Slonim, L.Pisarevskiy, A.Arendt, E.Abalakov. The author analyzes the learning processes of teachers-sculptors, names the main dates of their work, reveals the details of sculptural craft, talks about the variety of moves in plastic methods and principles of work in sculpture, shows the attitude of students to their teachers, and highlights the whole course of historical milestones in the creative biography of the sculptor.

A Half Century Defining the Logic of Cellular Life.

Over more than fifty years, I have studied how the logic that controls and integrates cell function is built into the dynamic architecture of living cells. I worked with a succession of exceptionally talented students and postdocs, and we discovered that the bacterial cell is controlled by an integrated genetic circuit in which transcriptional and translational controls are interwoven with the three-dimensional deployment of key regulatory and morphological proteins. Caulobacter's interconnected genetic regulatory network includes logic that regulates sets of genes expressed at specific times in the cell cycle and mechanisms that synchronize the advancement of the core cyclical circuit with chromosome replication and cytokinesis. Here, I have traced my journey from New York City art student to Stanford developmental biologist.

RESEARCHERS’ MOTIVATION, INTERACTION CHANNELS, AND STRATEGIES TOWARDS UNIVERSITY-INDUSTRY COLLABORATION: A CASE STUDY APPROACH

The relationship between the university and industry is an important element to increase knowledge and technology exchange that benefits both. However, this collaboration remains unclear understanding how this relationship can be enhanced for better opportunities that impact the community and economic development. The decreased number of UIC grants is due to several influencing factors, mainly researchers’ motivation, interaction channel, and innovation culture. This study will have a deeper understanding of the researchers’ motivations, interaction channels, and strategies toward University-Industry Collaboration (UIC) from the context of a technical university. This research employed semi-structured interview sessions with top management of the university and academics and analyzed thematically. Through this study, it was found that the factors that influence the motivation of researchers are student talent, funding, enthusiasm to contribute, and appreciation as an expert. While the four interaction channels used to communicate with the industry are namely traditional channels, two-way channels, and commercial and service channels. Thus, strengthening channels of interaction, increasing the motivation of the researchers, and improving the culture of innovation will ultimately improve the UIC for the years to come.
