Abstrak: Pendidik belum pernah mengikuti pelatihan penyusunan RPP sehingga mereka hanya copy paste pada temannya, padahal seringkali RPP hasil copy paste tidak relevan dengan situasi dan kondisi di madrasahnya sehingga RPP yang ada tidak bisa dijadikan acuan dalam proses pembelajaran. Tujuan utama dari penelitian tindakan madrasah ini adalah untuk membantu meningkatkan kompetensi pedagogik guru guru di MAS Darussalam Sumedang, yang belum memiliki sertifikat pendidik secara formal, dalam menyusun rencana pembelajaran yang sesuai dengan standar kompetensi masing- masing pelajaran. Metode penelitian yang digunakan kualitatif dengan pendekatan penelitian tindakan yang dilakukan dalam tiga tahapan, yaitu persiapan, pelaksanaan dan evaluasi dan refleksi, dan dilakukan minimal dalam dua siklus. Hasil penelitian menunjukan; Pertama, pada komponen Perumusan indikator tujuan pembelajaran, terlihat peningkatan dari 40 % pada kemampuan awal, menjadi 60% pada siklus 1 dan meningkat menjadi 70% pada akhir kegiatan. Kedua, pada Komponen Penentuan bahan dan materi pembelajaran, terdapat peningkatan kemampuan dari 65% menjadi 70% setelah siklus 1 dan lebih menguat menjadi 80%. Ketiga, dalam Komponen Pemilihan Strategi dan metoda pembelajaran, yang didalamnya memuat langkah-langkah pembelajaran dan penentuan alokasi waktu yang digunakan,terlihat adanya peningkatan yang signifikan dari yang semula hanya 40% menjadi 60% pada siklus 1 dan meningkat lagi menjadi 75% setelah siklus 2. Keempat, meskipun tidak terlihat adanya peningkatan yang cukup tajam, dalam komponen pemilihan Media dan alat pembelajaran juga terdapat adanya peningkatan dari 60% pada awal kegiatan dan setelah siklus 1, menjadi 80% setelah siklus 2. Kelima, peningkatan yang cukup signifikan juga dapat kita lihat pada komponen perencanaan evaluasi pembelajaran. Dari yang semula hanya 40% pada awal kegiatan, menjadi 60% pada akhir siklus 1 dan berhasil mencapai 70% pada akhir siklus 2. Kata Kunci: Kompetensi pedagodik, supervisi akademik, perencanaan pembelajaran. Abstract: The teacher has never attended a lesson plan preparation so they only copy paste it on their friends, whereas often the copy of the lesson plan is not relevant to the situation and conditions in their madrasas so that the lesson plan cannot be used as a reference in the learning process. The main objective of this madrasa action research is to help improve the pedagogical competence of teachers in MAS Darussalam Sumedang, who do not yet have a formal teacher certificate, in preparing learning plans that are in accordance with the competency standards of each lesson. The research method used is qualitative with an action research approach which is carried out in three stages, namely preparation, implementation and evaluation and reflection, and is carried out in at least two cycles. The research results show; First, in the components of the formulation of learning objectives indicators, seen an increase from 40% in the initial ability, to 60% in cycle 1 and increased to 70% at the end of the activity. Second, in the Determination Component of learning materials and materials, there was an increase in ability from 65% to 70% after cycle 1 and more strengthened to 80%. Third, in the Component Selection Strategy and learning method, which includes learning steps and determining the allocation of time used, seen a significant increase from the original only 40% to 60% in cycle 1 and increased again to 75% after cycle 2 Fourth, although there was no significant increase in the selection of media and learning tools there was also an increase from 60% at the beginning of the activity and after cycle 1, to 80% after cycle 2. Fifth, a significant increase can also be seen. look at the learning evaluation planning component. From the original only 40% at the beginning of the activity, to 60% at the end of cycle 1 and managed to reach 70% at the end of cycle 2. Keywords: Pedagodic competence, academic supervision, learning planning.

ObjectivesTo clarify the process of how caregivers in a nursing home integrate the perspectives of rehabilitation into their responsibilities through working with a physical therapist.DesignThis study was conducted under an action research approach.SettingThe target facility was a nursing home located in Japan. The researcher, a physical therapist, worked at the nursing home once a week from April 2016 to March 2017. During the study period, he created field notes focused on the dialogue and action of caregivers regarding care, responses of caregivers to the physical therapist and reflections as a physical therapist. Caregivers were also given a short informal interview about their relationship with the nursing home residents. For data analysis, two researchers discussed the content based on the field notes, consolidating the findings.ParticipantsThe participants were caregivers who worked at the target facility. Thirty-eight caregivers agreed to participate. Average age was 39.6±11.1 years, 14 (37%) were male and average caregiver experience was 9.8 years.ResultsTwo cycles of action research were conducted during the study period. There were four stages in the process of how caregivers in the nursing home integrated the perspectives of rehabilitation through their work with the physical therapist. First, caregivers resisted having the rehabilitation programme carried out in the unit because they perceived that rehabilitation performed by a physical therapist was a special process and not under their responsibility. However, the caregivers were given a shared perspective on rehabilitation by the physical therapist, which helped them to understand the meaning of care to adapt the residents’ abilities to their daily life. They practised resident-centred care on a trial basis, although with a sense of conflict between their new and previous role, which emphasised the safety of residents’ lives and personhood. The caregivers increased their self-efficacy as their knowledge and skills were supplemented by the physical therapist and his approval of their attempted care. They were then able to commit to their newly conceived specialty of care as a means of supporting the lives of residents.ConclusionsThe process of working with a physical therapist led to a change in caregivers’ perception and behaviours, which occurred in four stages: resistance to incorporation, recapture of other perspectives, conflicts and trials in the role of caregiver and transformation to a resident-centred perspective.

This article describes the use of a participatory action research (PAR) approach to developing a self-management resource for persons living with dementia and care partners. Despite growing evidence that persons with dementia are able to contribute in meaningful ways to decision-making about their care and life preferences, few opportunities exist for them to participate in the design of resources and services meant for them. There is also a need to support the self-management of persons living with dementia with the provision of accurate, high quality, user-friendly information. The Living Well with Dementia resource was developed through a partnership with persons with dementia, family members, Alzheimer Society representatives, primary care providers, and researchers. The methods used in the development of this resource are outlined in six steps employed in this process, from establishment of a PAR team to final resource creation. Informed by a whole systems approach, the resource brings together essential components of self-management into a comprehensive system of care and support for living. It empowers users to be active participants in the application of new knowledge to their lives. Better self-management has important implications for access to health care and quality of life for persons with dementia and care partners.

This article reports on the evaluation of an action research project designed to support workforce development in the promotion of healthy nutrition for older people. The evaluation methodology was grounded by the action research approach of the project and focused on case studies of the 10 partner organisations. Findings indicate that the Healthy Ageing—Nutrition Project has resulted in a large increase in awareness and knowledge about healthy ageing and nutrition in the case study organisations, and to a lesser extent, in the broader health and aged care sectors. For the case study organisations it seems likely that transformational change has been made through the project's work of building capacity, mediating and facilitating change and providing resources. Support at board and management level, as well as thoughtful development of the workforce, were critical success factors in bringing about organisational change. The main challenge was identified as time and resources needed. Follow-up evaluation of the health outcomes from nutritional assessment, screening and intervention should also be implemented in order to provide further evidence of the value of this effort.
