High School Mathematics

Since the report of the National Committee on Mathematical Requirements, under the auspices of the Mathematical Association of America, made its appearance we have been more certain of the content of Junior High School Mathematics, although the committee gave no order of topics with specific time allotments of each. A question which arose in my mind last spring was, “What are the Junior High Schools throughout the country definitely teaching in Mathematics?” I, accordingly, wrote to Dr. Glass, of the State Department of Pennsylvania, for a list of twenty-five of the best Junior High Schools in Pennsylvania, exclusive of Philadelphia. Philadelphia was excluded as most of the members of my class were already teaching in Philadelphia and were acquainted with the Philadelphia course of study. We received a directory of the Junior High Schools of Pennsylvania with twenty-five of the best checked by Dr. Glass. Books on Junior High Schools were then scanned for names of Junior High Schools, but with little success as they referred mainly to large school systems and we desired to get in touch with the mathematics departments. We found in the ninth year book of the National Association of Secondary-School Principals, in the directory of members, about forty-five names of Junior High Schools throughout the country.

Managerial Competence

This study aims to analyze the effect of E-Leadership and social interaction both partially and simultaneously on the managerial competence of junior high school principals in Dumai City. The population of this study were 37 people consisting of 22 State Junior High Schools and 15 Private Junior High Schools in Dumai. The sample of this research was a saturated sample, that is, the entire population were sampled. Data collection techniques were using questionnaires for the variables E-leadership, social interaction, and managerial competence of school principals. The data analysis technique used in this research was descriptive statistical analysis and inferential statistical analysis. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant influence between the variable E-Leadership (X1) and social interaction (X2) on the managerial competence of school principals (Y) SMP in Dumai City 19.4%. This means that the better the E-Leadership and social interaction of the principal, the better the managerial competence of the principal.

Music Model

Examination of the music opportunities available to students in the junior high schools of the early twentieth century lends historical perspective to current challenges facing middle level music educators. This article describes the specific music offerings at Lincoln Junior High School in Minneapolis, Minnesota, from the school opening in 1923 to 1940, when financial challenges forced the reorganization of the music program. In many ways, the music curriculum at Lincoln Junior High School in Minneapolis was exemplary of the music experiences found in other junior high schools. The required curriculum was based on the general music model of the elementary school and included music appreciation and a strong emphasis on the development of music reading skills. Extracurricular “clubs” provided performance opportunities for young adolescent musicians. Choruses focused on preparing large-scale productions such as operettas and musicals, while instrumental groups participated in contests and festivals. Performances for school assemblies and civic groups provide evidence of the importance of connections to the community for junior high schools. The formation of the Girls’ Band at Lincoln in 1924 was unusual. In the absence of direct evidence, I postulate possible explanations for the founding of this unique ensemble.

The goal of the research is to gain insights into the characteristics of the items in the mathematics national examination, the attributes on which the items were formulated and the result of a conceptual error diagnosis of the mathematics materials based on the result of the junior high school mathematics national examination. This is quantitative descriptive research. The data were collected from 3,079 grade-nine students of junior high schools who took the National Examination in the academic year of 2015/2016. The sample was established randomly based on the package code of the examination which is P0C5520 with 574 students as the examinees. Documentation method was applied in collecting the data. The result of the research shows that – upon the implementation of the classical test theory – there are 16 items in ‘difficult’ category, 24 in ‘intermediate’ category, and no items in ‘easy’ category. Furthermore, upon the implementation of the item response theory, the result shows that 28 items are in ‘good’ category and 12 items are in ‘poor’ category. In addition, there are 50 attributes on which the Junior High School Mathematics National Examination test (package P0C520) is formulated. Four attributes are content attributes and the rest (46) are process skill attributes. The result of the diagnosis shows that there are 11 types of errors made by the students when trying to complete the content items. Most of the errors are conceptual errors related to the geometric materials especially in the sub-materials of polyhedron, triangles, and quadrangles.
