This paper presents the theoretical approach and the technical steps for the development of a questionnaire on lithosphere for the 1st class of Greek junior high school. It, also, discusses the importance and the multifunctional role of such a questionnaire (i.e. GCI tool). Furthermore it presents an innovative precodification of open-ended questions based on the set question - control question, which offers valid data for a qualitative study like this. The cognitional control table offers abundant data about students’ cognitional structure and about whether conceptual change has been achieved.

The context of learning in the 21st century directs teachers to think whether they will continue to play the role of "sage-on-the-stage". In connection with teacher competencies and the implementation of inquiry-based learning (IBL), in the teaching and learning process Physics teachers should be able to make learning designs suitable for inquiry learning in the 21st century. However, the form of IBL tools compiled by Physics teachers is not yet oriented towards 21st century abilities needed by students. Based on the results and discussion, it is known that 1) high school physics teachers in Bandar Lampung already know and have knowledge of the IBL model, 2) almost all high school physics teachers have applied IBL-based science learning even though they have not fully understood each IBL syntax and are not yet oriented 21st century skills, 3) there is an increase in teacher knowledge about IBL after the implementation of technical guidance, and 4) the need for further assistance in overcoming teacher obstacles in making IBL-based learning units or devices oriented towards 21st century abilities.

Abstract. Background: High school and university teachers need to advise students against attempting suicide, the second leading cause of death among 15–29-year-olds. Aims: To investigate the role of reasoning and emotion in advising against suicide. Method: We conducted a study with 130 students at a university that specializes in teachers' education. Participants sat in front of a camera, videotaping their advising against suicide. Three raters scored their transcribed advice on "wise reasoning" (i.e., expert forms of reasoning: considering a variety of conditions, awareness of the limitation of one's knowledge, taking others' perspectives). Four registered psychologists experienced in suicide prevention techniques rated the transcripts on the potential for suicide prevention. Finally, using the software Facereader 7.1, we analyzed participants' micro-facial expressions during advice-giving. Results: Wiser reasoning and less disgust predicted higher potential for suicide prevention. Moreover, higher potential for suicide prevention was associated with more surprise. Limitations: The actual efficacy of suicide prevention was not assessed. Conclusion: Wise reasoning and counter-stereotypic ideas that trigger surprise probably contribute to the potential for suicide prevention. This advising paradigm may help train teachers in advising students against suicide, measuring wise reasoning, and monitoring a harmful emotional reaction, that is, disgust.

Oliver Wang interviews documentary filmmaker Arthur Dong. Originally from San Francisco, Dong began his career as a student filmmaker in the 1970s before releasing the Oscar-nominated short film, Sewing Woman in 1982. Since then, his films have focused on the role of Chinese and Asian Americans in entertainment industries as well as on anti-LGBQ discrimination. In the interview, Wang and Dong discuss Dong's beginnings as a high school filmmaker, his decision to turn the story of his seamstress mother into Sewing Woman, his struggle to bring together the Asian American and queer film communities and his recent experience in staging a “Hollywood Chinese” exhibit inside a renovated bar in West Hollywood.

The purpose of this study is to find out how attitudes and interests of students and analyze the relationship between attitudes and student interest in high school physics subjects in Jambi Province. This type of research is quantitative which uses survey research design as a research procedure. This study involved 463 high school students in Jambi Province. The instrument used was a questionnaire with data analysis techniques namely descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. The results of the dominant student attitude indicators discussed in this paper are attitude indicators towards good research in physics with a percentage of 58.5% with a total of 271 students. The results of indicators of dominant interest are indicators of learning attention with categories good a percentage of 74.3% with total 344 students. The results of the analysis of the relationship between attitudes and interests of students towards high school physics subjects in Jambi Province showed r value 0.725 and positive. Therefore it is said that the attitudes and interests of high school students in Indonesia in physics subjects are high.
