Personality Factor Questionnaire

This paper examines the role of personality factors in academic achievement, specifically achievement in mathematics, using self-concept as a major aspect of personality. A sample of 21 high school students with advanced placement in mathematics were given Cattell's Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16 PF). A significantly high factor rating appeared on Factor E for the total group. Factor E (high end) is described as dominant, self-assured, assertive, independent, and bold. When the sample was separated by sex, additional factors began to emerge. Factor A (warm, outgoing) showed higher than average in the 13 boys while Factor O (anxious) emanated as higher than average in the 8 girls. Implications for teachers relative to students' personalities are discussed.

Au moyen d'entrevues réalisées auprès d'élèves du secondaire, nous tentons de répondre, par l’analyse de leur discours, aux questions suivantes : Comment perçoivent-ils les TIC en classe? Sont-elles, selon eux, pertinentes en tant que moyen d’apprentissage? Perçoivent-ils les TIC comme étant essentielles à leur réussite? D'emblée, le discours des participants se révèle pragmatique. Les TIC représentent pour eux un moyen d'apprentissage stimulant, ayant un effet positif sur leur motivation. Cependant, elles ne sont pas essentielles à l'apprentissage et n'ont pas selon eux d'impact véritable sur leur réussite scolaire. La relation avec l'enseignant demeure au centre du processus d'apprentissage et les TIC n'ont qu'un rôle complémentaire à cette relation. Le discours des participants ignore les formes propres au discours technopédagogique et demeure ancré dans une conception humaniste de l'éducation. Lower St-Laurent area secondary school students’ discourse relative to the integration of ICT in learning Abstract: How do high school students perceive ICT in learning? Based on interviews with secondary school students, this study contributes to understanding about the role of ICT in school learning in the context of the following questions: How do secondary school students perceive ICT in the classroom? Is this technology relevant to them as a learning tool? Do they see this technology as essential to their success? From the start, the participants’ discourse is pragmatic. For them, ICT represents a stimulating learning tool having a positive effect on their motivation. In spite of this, they do not see this technology as essential to learning nor do they see it as having any real impact on their academic success. The participants’ discourse stayed away from any “techno-pedagogical” forms and remained well rooted in a humanist perspective of education.

Penalaran matematis menggunakan pola pikir logis dalam menganalisa suatu masalah yang nanti pada akhirnya akan ditandai dengan aktivitas menyimpulkan atas masalah tersebut. Seseorang yang memiliki penalaran yang baik, tentunya akan berhati-hati dalam bertindak dan memutuskan sesuatu. Materi-materi pada kalkulus merupakan materi yang ada pada tingkat sekolah menengah yang nantinya menjadi lahan mengajar mahasiswa calon guru matematika S-1. Kemampuan penalaran yang dikaji mempengaruhi pembelajaran mahasiswa kedepannya karena berlaku pada matakuliah lanjut, contohnya pada kemampuan pembuktian akan selalu digunakan pada matakuliah persamaan diferensial, struktur aljabar, analisis  vektor, analisis real, dll. Sedangkan sebagai calon guru yang nantinya mengajar pada tingkat sekolah menengah, maka kemampuan penalaran ini menjadi salah satu capaian pembelajaran matematika bagi siswa sekolah menengah, maka oleh karena itu guru yang mengajarnya haruslah memiliki kemampuan penalaran yang baik. Analisis kesalahan sangat penting untuk melakukan evaluasi dan refleksi pada struktur soal maupun pada perlakuan dalam pembelajaran dalam upaya memperbaiki kemampuan penalarannya.   Mathematical reasoning uses a logical mindset in analyzing a problem that will eventually be marked by concluding activity on the problem. Someone who has good reason, will certainly be careful in acting and deciding something. The material content on the calculus is the material that exists at the secondary school level which will become the field of teaching the prospective master of math teacher bachelor. The reasoning ability studied influences student learning in the future as it applies to advanced courses, for example in the ability of proof will always be used in the course of differential equations, algebraic structure, vector analysis, real analysis, etc. While as a teacher candidate who will teach at the secondary school level, then this reasoning ability becomes one of the achievements of mathematics learning for high school students, therefore teachers who teach it must have good reasoning ability. Error analysis is very important to evaluate and reflect on the problem structure as well as on the treatment in learning in order to improve the reasoning ability.

School Start Times

Most teenagers are chronically sleep deprived. One strategy proposed to lengthen adolescent sleep is to delay secondary school start times. This would allow students to wake up later without shifting their bedtime, which is biologically determined by the circadian clock, resulting in a net increase in sleep. So far, there is no objective quantitative data showing that a single intervention such as delaying the school start time significantly increases daily sleep. The Seattle School District delayed the secondary school start time by nearly an hour. We carried out a pre-/post-research study and show that there was an increase in the daily median sleep duration of 34 min, associated with a 4.5% increase in the median grades of the students and an improvement in attendance.

Background: Although self-expressive creativity is related to cyberbullying, it can also reinforce strengths that contribute to positive adolescent development. Our study concentrated on the relationships between personality traits and self-expressive creativity in the digital domain in an adolescent population. For this, we analyzed the effect of self-esteem and emotional intelligence as assets for positive development related to personality traits and self-expressive creativity. Methods: The study population included a total of 742 adolescents that were high-school students in the province of Almería, Spain. The following instruments were used: Big Five Inventory (BFI) to evaluate the five broad personality factors, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSE), Expression, Management, and Emotion Recognition Evaluation Scale (TMMS-24), and the Creative Behavior Questionnaire: Digital (CBQD). Results: The cluster analysis revealed the existence of two profiles of adolescents based on their personality traits. The analysis showed that the group with the highest levels of extraversion and openness to experience and lowest levels of neuroticism were those who showed the highest scores in self-esteem, clarity, and emotional repair, as well as in self-expressive creativity. Higher scores in neuroticism and lower scores in extraversion and openness to experience showed a direct negative effect on self-expressive creativity and indirect effect through self-esteem and emotional attention, which acted as mediators in series. Conclusions: To counteract certain characteristics that increase adolescents’ vulnerability to social network bullying, a plan must be developed for adequate positive use of the Internet from a creative model that enables digital self-expression for acquiring identity and self-efficacy through the positive influence of peers, which promotes feelings of empowerment and self-affirmation through constructive tasks that reinforce self-esteem and emotional intelligence.
