The State Course of Study in Mathematics in Pennsylvania is a twelve-year program. This program is continuous not only in the sense that it is laid down year by year, beginning at the first school year and extending through the twelfth school year, but also in the sense that it is clearly understood that each subject after it has once been introduced is thereupon to be regarded as an element entering into all later instruction in mathematics throughout the course of study. Thus, for instance, arithmetic is looked upon as an implicit, if not an explicit, element in the mathematics program of studies throughout the junior and senior high school. So, also, after any element of algebra or geometry is taken up in class work, it is understood that this element is to be regarded as part and parcel of the subject matter of instruction for all later semesters and years.

This paper reports on an attempt to increase students’ exposure to communicative English in a senior high school environment. Despite common awareness of the importance of exposure “to develop students’ communication abilities” (MEXT, 2011, p.1), research shows that activity-based all-English classes are not always conducted. Other research has also revealed that even with classes taught entirely in English, the total hours are not enough for the acquisition of basic skills of English. Therefore, in order to increase exposure to communicative English, I conducted morning and afternoon homeroom periods in English for two years [EHR]. In addition, one student per lesson gave a one-minute speech in English during the morning HR every day. Most of the students reported that EHR was instrumental in developing their comprehension and speaking skills, and at the end of each school year, they chose to continue EHR in the following school year. 本稿では、高校の授業外で生徒が英語でコミュニケーションをする時間を設けた実践例を紹介する。コミュニケーション能力を育成するためには、実際に英語でコミュニケーションをする機会が必要である。しかし現場では必ずしも英語で授業が行われているわけではないとの報告がある。また、仮に全授業をオールイングリッシュで行ったとしても、基本的なコミュニケーション能力を養成するのに十分ではないという研究もある。そこで、実際に英語を使う時間を増やす目的で、朝と帰りのホームルームを2年間英語で行った。また朝のホームルームで1日一人の生徒が「英語1分スピーチ」を行った。年度末のアンケートでは、生徒が英語ホームルームの成果を実感し、次年度も継続したいと望んでいることがわかった。

AbstractThis research is based on the low outcomes of class XI students on their chemistry subject. Therefore, the experiment research by pretest and posttest to discover the effect of cooperative learning model of Student Teams Achievement Divisions (STAD) by using Handout toward learning outcomes of State Senior High School 1 Kampar on salt hydrolysis is conducted. The subject of this research is the students of class XI Mia in 2015-2016 year by using 2 classroom samples: XI Mia 1 (exsperiment) dan XI Mia 4 (control). The data was collected by using observation, initial test (homogeneity), final test (pretest and postest), and documentation. To discover the effect of the model on learning outcomes, the formula of Kp is applied. The effect differences are analyzed by t-test sampel related. The analysis result of initial and final data is t-counting = 2.325 and t-table = 1,68 in the significant rate of 5%. The value of t-counting > t-table, therefore, Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. This shows that there is the effect of cooperative learning model of Student Teams Achievement Divisions (STAD) by using handout toward learning outcomes of State Senior High School 1 Kampar on salt hydrolysis by the effect as much as 7.8%.  Key words:      Learning outcomes, model learning model of STAD, salt hydrolysis

<p>The skills to think critically on environmental pollution material is the skills of the learners to understand a condition that involves the process of reasoning about environmental pollution.<strong> </strong>Student’s critical thinking skills is an interaction between various factors, namely naturalist intelligence and motivation learning. Student who possess critical thinking skills are as good as those naturalist intelligence and those who are motivated to learn. This study aimed to determine the correlation between naturalist intelligence and motivation learning with student’s critical thinking skills in Jakarta on environmental pollution. This research was conducted at 68 Jakarta Senior High School on semester II of 2017/2018 school year. The method that was used is descriptive quantitative through correlational study. The sample used amount if 115 students of class X MIA. The result of prerequisite test finds that the data are normally distributed and homogeneous. The statistical hypothesis was done by linier regression test, liniearity test, and correlation coefficient test at α = 0,05. Based on these results, it is concluded there is a correlation between naturalist intelligence and motivation learning with student’s critical thinking skills on environmental pollution.</p><p> </p>
