Gender gaps were observed in multiple categories of student participation in an active-learning biology course. Despite similar performance on in-class assessments, student surveys suggest that men and women experience the classroom differently. The results suggest that active learning is not a panacea for equitable participation in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics courses.

This study aims to determine the feasibility of mathematical modules with STEM approach and the response of learners and teachers to the attractiveness of the module. The research and development procedure used is the Borg and Gall development model modified by sugiyono. The data collection instruments used are questionnaires given to experts to know the feasibility of the products and questionnaires given to learners and teachers to know the attractiveness of the product. The results of the study indicate that the assessment of the experts is very reasonable (87% of material experts, 89% of media experts and 92% of linguists), the response of learners and teachers is very interesting (89% small group trial, 87% field trials and 90% teacher test).

Penelitian pengembangan ini bertujuan menghasilkan modul pembelajaran terintegrasi STEM-PBL “Topik Jenis Media Tanam Untuk Pertumbuhan Tanaman Selada Secara Hidroponik” yang valid, praktis dan efektif. Model pengembangan yang digunakan adalah model ADDIE (<em>Analysis, Desain, Development, Implementation, Evaluation</em>). Tahap evaluasi menggunakan evaluasi formatif <em>Tessmer</em> yang meliputi <em>self evaluation, expert review, one-to-one, small group</em>, dan  <em>field test</em>. Hasil tahap <em>expert review</em> didapat skor rata-rata kevalidan sebesar 0,90 skala Aiken dengan kategori tinggi. Hasil uji kepraktisan didapatkan skor rata-rata pada tahap <em>one-to-one</em> sebesar 0,93 dan pada tahap <em>small group</em> sebesar 0,90 skala Aiken dengan kategori tinggi (praktis). Hasil uji <em>field test</em> didapatkan nilai N-Gain sebesar 0,75 dengan kategori tinggi (efektif). Berdasarkan hasil evaluasi tersebut menunjukkan bahwa modul yang dihasilkan telah memenuhi kriteria valid, praktis, dan efektif. Disarankan modul ini dapat dijadikan salah satu alternatif bahan ajar pada mata kuliah kewirausahaan.

Abstract. Women have a minority position within science, technology, engineering, and mathematics and, consequently, are likely to face more adversities at work. This diary study takes a look at a facilitating factor for women’s research performance within academia: daily work engagement. We examined the moderating effect of gender on the relationship between two behaviors (i.e., daily networking and time control) and daily work engagement, as well as its effect on the relationship between daily work engagement and performance measures (i.e., number of publications). Results suggest that daily networking and time control cultivate men’s work engagement, but daily work engagement is beneficial for the number of publications of women. The findings highlight the importance of work engagement in facilitating the performance of women in minority positions.
