The Impact

In this paper the impact of Hikmah Pedagogy (HP) on critical, creative, caring and collaborative thinking and communication skills of students in primary and secondary schools through the subjects of Malay (also known as Bahasa Malaysia) and English languages were investigated. The participating teachers were trained by experts from the Center for Teaching Thinking, International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) and they were observed and supervised to ensure HP was implemented correctly. This study employed the case study method to collect both quantitative and qualitative data. The quantitative data were collected before and after the intervention of the HP using the Cognitive Behavior Checklist. Mid-semester and final examination results were used to gauge improvement in English and Bahasa Malaysia. These data were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The qualitative data were collected through interviewing teachers individually at the beginning and focus group discussion (FGD) at the end of study. The data were analysed qualitatively to identify the emerging themes. The findings show that when students were given opportunity to ask questions based on the given stimulus materials and to voice out their opinions in the dialogic approach of HP, they demonstrated the ability to reason well; think about their own thinking; to think caringly and collaboratively. Students showed improvement in their communication skills in both languages which were indicated by the increase in their examination results, particularly in writing and oral skills.

Study Approach

Kurikulum di Indonesia dinilai terlalu kompleks dibandingkan dengan kurikulum yang ada di beberapa negara maju sehingga beban siswa dalam belajar semakin berat. Atas dasar inilah diperlukan KTSP, kurikulum operasional yang dikembangkan dan dilaksankan oleh sekolah. SMP Negeri 4 Ambon merupakan sekolah yang mengembangkan kurikulum sesuai dengan karakteristik dan kebutuhan sekolah. Permasalahan yang akan dibahas dalam penelitian ini adalah, apa saja kendala dalam pelaksanaan KTSP di SMP Negeri 4 Ambon, bagaimana upaya guru dalam menyelesaikan masalah dalam pelaksanaan KTSP, dan bagaimana upaya guru dalam menyumbangkan pikirannya dalam pelaksanaan pembelajaran musik. Penelitian ini juga dilandasi dengan beberapa teori-teori terdahulu yang telah meneliti efesiensi pembelajaran musik. Proses penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus dan FGD (Focus Group Discussion) yang diperoleh dari wawancara terbuka dan diskusi terpadu. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan, kendala yang ditemui dalam penerapan KTSP pada pembelajaran seni musik antara lain, kendala siswa dalam mengaransir lagu, guru masih menggunakan ruangan kelas umum pada saat praktek, alat musik yang digunakan belum memadai, alokasi waktu yang masih kurang dan kurangnya tenaga guru. Dalam penerapan KTSP guru berusaha mengatasi kendala-kendala tersebut dengan menyumbangkan pemikirannya melalui solusi-solusi yang diterapkannya, antara lain dengan memudahkan anak mengaransir lagu, melalui lagu sederhana yang diaransirnya dan memanfaatkan waktu diluar jam sekolah untuk menyelesaikan materi yang tertunda.The curriculum in Indonesia is considered too complex compared to other countries so that students in learning is getting harder. On this basis KTSP is needed, an operational curriculum developed and implemented by the school. SMP Negeri 4 Ambon is a school that develops a curriculum in accordance with the characteristics and needs of the school. The problems to be discussed in this study are, what are the obstacles in the implementation of KTSP in SMP Negeri 4 Ambon, how are the efforts of the teacher in solving problems in the implementation of KTSP, and how the teacher attempts to contribute his thoughts in the implementation of music learning. This research is also based on several previous theories that have examined the efficiency of music learning. The process of this research uses qualitative research methods with a case study approach and FGD (Focus Group Discussion) obtained from open interviews and integrated discussions. The results showed that the obstacles encountered in the application of KTSP in the learning of musical arts included the constraints of students in arranging songs, teachers still using public classrooms at the time of practice, inadequate musical instruments, lack of time allocation and lack of teachers. In applying the KTSP the teacher tries to overcome these obstacles by contributing his thoughts through the solutions he applies, among others by making it easier for children to organize songs, through simple songs arranged and utilizing time outside of school hours to complete the delayed material.

In this chapter, Yaghi offers detailed suggestions on how to code qualitative data after they have been gathered. Based on his doctoral dissertation, this chapter explains that the logic behind coding qualitative data is to turn a significant amount of information into categories that can be used to explain a phenomenon, reveal a concept, or render the data comparable across different case studies. It also elaborates through examples from author’s fieldwork in Tunisia, Egypt, and Jordan on four potential problems that may face researchers in coding qualitative data. These are the questions of preparation, categorization, consistency, and saturation. The chapter concludes by asking researchers to be flexible, and open to the process of trial and error in coding, to confront the data with questions before categorization, and to gather sufficient data on their topics before running their qualitative surveys.

AbstractThis paper explores the thorny mingling of law with qualitative social science methodologies through the lens of the 2010–11 Supreme Court of British Columbia Charter Reference on polygamy, which was conducted to determine whether the criminalization of polygamy was consistent with the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. The Reference reveals how the marginalization of qualitative research(ers) effectively controlled whose voices were to be heard and whose were to be silenced in the broader project of sovereign intervention into family formation. With specific focus on Professor Angela Campbell, who provided expert opinion testimony in the Reference, this paper reflects on two important questions: when social science is invoked in legal settings, whose knowledge is legitimized, and who benefits from this legitimization? Drawing upon the longstanding feminist project of deconstructing assumptions of value-neutrality in all science, this paper considers how qualitative, feminist research(ers) may be inherently at odds with law’s quest for (rational) “truth.”
