A key responsibility of educators is to enable meaningful learning and to help students acquire the knowledge and skills they need to make decisions and solve real-life problems. The knowledge that students bring to class (i.e. prior knowledge) has been identified as a major factor enabling meaningful learning. Leveraging this knowledge depends on instructors being able to assess it and adjust their teaching accordingly. This paper proposes a learning model aimed at enriching, assessing and activating prior knowledge. To provide a preliminary evaluation on the feasibility of the model, it was implemented using an online learning system and assessed using survey and interview data gathered from students and faculty. The results showed positive changes in student study behavior, motivation, classroom experience and learning outcomes. Opportunities for improvement of the learning model were also identified.

Online Learning platforms are increasing day by day, and most of the people prefer online learning as this platform is very convenient and affordable. In online learning education, learning content designing plays very important role to improve student performance. Therefore in this project we proposed a data analytics based model to analyze student’s exam solving and content accessing behaviors which will help teachers to improve content quality. Student’s behavior analysis will also help to find out questions difficulty levels as well as student’s grade and performance. We proposed a decision support system in online learning system for tutors/teachers which will help them to improve their learning quality. Along with this the tutors will be able to view student’s performance online using Graphical User Interface. In this system, we proposed a personal questions ordering module for students depending upon their historical question solving patterns.

The development of learning in education has now increased. As time goes on, technology has grown rapidly. With the development of technology today can help the learning process. One example of technological advancement in education is E-Learning. E-Learning provides the convenience of lecturers and students in distance learning so that learning runs effectively and efficiently. In an effort to improve the quality of education in Indonesia, Raharja University has implemented an online learning system called iLearning. But iLearning's online learning system has not been the maximum, there are some students who have not been active in the classroom as the lecture took place and there are still students who are late working on the assignment given. To improve the performance of students while in the classroom and to perform timely assignments lecturers apply a method of gamification. Students will earn points when working on an assignment that has been given by the lecturer. The earning points are listed on the iDu Dashboard in order to provide motivation for students to do other tasks and compete with classmates. The methods used to address these problems include SWOT analysis methods, Literature Review, and Unified Modelling Language (UML) as a modeling design. This research aims to improve student performance in the process of teaching and learning activities.

Medicine is an applied science, interpreting evidence and applying it to real life by using clinical reasoning skills and experience. COPT (clinically oriented physiology teaching) was incorporated in physiology instruction aiming to relate the study of physiology to real-life problems, to generate enthusiasm and motivation for learning, and to demonstrate the vocational relevance of physiology among students by integrating clinical experience with teaching. COPT consisted of two elements: 1) critical-thinking questions (CTQ) and 2) clinical case studies. After a few topics were taught, CTQ and case studies were given as an assignment. Answers were discussed in the next class. Two exams, each of which contained CTQ and recall questions, were conducted, one before ( exam 1) and one after ( exam 2) the implementation of COPT. Analysis of student performance in the examinations revealed that the students did better in exam 2 ( P < 0.0001). Feedback from students indicated that this method was useful and challenging.

The purpose of this study was to describe: 1) How to implement civic education and learning to develop a democratic attitude and learning participation; 2) How to design a civic education learning model based on controversial issues in the mass media to develop a democratic attitude and student learning participation; 3) Based on the public To what extent can the civic education learning model of media controversial issues develop democratic attitudes and student participation in learning? It is indeed necessary to consider adopting appropriate learning methods to improve and discover students’ understanding of the knowledge conveyed by the teacher. Learning model Problem-based learning or problem-based learning is a student-oriented or student-centered learning model. Problem-based learning models have methods to deal with real-life problems, and this learning emphasizes problem-solving investigation activities. This research is a scientific paper. When using a problem-based learning learning model, a descriptive qualitative research method with a phenomenological description type is used to describe the learning process extensively and deeply. By paying attention to and analyzing the focus of reality or field experience that occurs on the research object. The object of the study is the students of HKBP Nommensen Pematangsiantar University, and the standard of study is the students participating in the civic education seminar.

<p><em>Constraint</em><em>s often encountered by lecturers </em><em>in</em><em> educating students is still attached pedagogical mentality like students of secondary education; has not moved on andragogical mentality like a college student. These </em><em>constraints </em><em>can be found in the context of basic principles of andragogy. As a library research, this paper examines the data sources in the form of literature relevant to Islamic law (fiqh) studies and andragogy (adult education). The study results </em><em>in </em><em>six models of andragogical learning for the development of Islamic law (fiqh) courses in higher education. First, the learning model of “learn how to know” that emphasizes aspects of epistemology to increase students’ curiosity (need to know). Second, </em><em>independent</em><em> learning model that emphasizes student activeness in learning. Third, experiential </em><em>based </em><em>learning</em><em> model</em><em>, especially literature and field research practice, to foster inclusive thinking. Fourth, </em><em>actual </em><em>life</em><em>-based learning model</em><em>, </em><em>either </em><em>related to worship or muamalat. Fifth, contextual</em><em> learning model</em><em> to find alternative solutions to real life problems from the perspective of Islamic law (fiqh). Sixth, the learning model </em><em>to </em><em>develop students’ intrinsic motivation.</em></p>
