Abstract Student problem behaviour in schools is an issue for teachers, schools, and education jurisdictions. Problem behaviour also has an effect on families, the individual student, and the community. It is one of the principal issues of discussion for teachers, preservice teachers, principals, and policymakers. The purpose of this study was to examine a model that supports schools in managing available resources to promote positive behaviour and address problem behaviour. Interviews were conducted with 12 primary and high school principals to investigate their experiences of working together in 6 local management groups (LMGs) for the management of student behaviour. The findings revealed that the LMG model supported effective collaborative leadership practices between the high school and primary school principals and encouraged collegial networks among primary and high school teachers through joint professional learning opportunities. The benefits of the LMG model highlighted some positive outcomes for principals, teachers, and students with problem behaviour within their local schools.

Introduction. This study aims to examine the issue of high school failure in social sciences through a systematic review. It aims to provide a critical assessment of research on this subject. It seeks to question the very construct of high school failure, its premises, and the possible consequences from this perspective. Materials and Methods. The research published between 2010–2020, both in Spanish and English in the Scopus and Web of Science databases (Core collection), was considered. A total of 171 articles were identified. After initial screening, 37 papers were finally selected. Semantic maps were created with the Vosviewer. The literature was examined to determine where high school failure is being researched, what type of methodologies are most used and, finally, what impact the research has had on our understanding of this concept. Results. It was found that most of the research on the topic is done in the field of education, and that the methodology used is predominantly quantitative. The different definitions of high school failure tended to attribute its cause to one or more of four reasons: student failure, multicausal phenomena, social exclusion, and finally, disability in the education system. Discussion and Conclusion. It is possible to understand that high school failure is understood and defined as mostly involving studentsʼ responsibility for the academic outcome and achievement obtained. Although studies that cover such factors as a multicausal nature, social exclusion, and the education systemʼs difficulty can be found, the responsibility for failure tends to be attributed to the individual student.

In this study, we synthesized the literature on how informal contexts, namely friends and family social groups, shape high school students’ likelihood of pursuing advanced math and science coursework. Extending scholarly understandings of STEM education, we turned to the body of literature with three guiding questions: (1) What influence do friends have on advanced math and science coursetaking? (2) What influence does family, particularly parents, have on advanced math and science coursetaking? (3) Do the effects vary by gender among each social group? By synthesizing existing literature on the influence of family and friends on advanced math and science coursetaking in high school, we find that both friends and families can influence the number of advanced math and science courses students complete, but the amount of advanced coursework students complete also varies based on the gender of the individual student, the gender of his/her friends, as well as by mother or father. Implications and limitations are discussed.

One Way Anova

In this research, exploring the individual innovativeness levels of  high school teachers  is aimed.  The research is designed as a descriptive survey and the sample of the research included 320 teachers working in 19 high schools in  Şanlıurfa, Turkey.    To collect data, translated form of “Individual Innovativeness” scale which is developed by Hurt, Joseph and Cook (1977) was used . Data of the research were analysed using such  descriptive analysis as percentage, frequency, mean, standart deviation, t-test and one-way ANOVA. As a result of the study, the individual innovativeness category of the teachers was found as  the “early-majority”.   While the teachers’ opinions about their individual innovativeness showe no significant differences in terms of their genders, their opinions differed significantly according to  their ages and the high school type they work in. Accordingly, young teachers and teachers working in science high schools were found to have higher individual innovation scores than older teachers and teachers working in Anatolian and vocational high schools. Accordingly, in order to make the teachers more innovative, it’s a must to abolish bureaucratic, organizatioanal and individual impediments; to encourage teachers to take risks.Extended English summary is in the end of Full Text PDF (TURKISH) file. ÖzetBu çalışmada lise öğretmenlerinin bireysel yenilikçilik düzeylerinin tespit edilmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Betimsel tarama modelinde tasarımlanan araştırmanın örneklemini Şanlıurfa merkezde bulunan 19 okulda görev yapan toplam 320 öğretmen oluşturmaktadır.    Araştırmada öğretmenlerin bireysel yenilikçilik düzeylerini ölçmek için Hurt, Joseph ve Cook (1977) tarafından geliştirilen “Bireysel Yenilikçilik Ölçeği’nin” Türkçe formu kullanılmıştır ve bu form  Kılıçer ve Odabaşı (2010) tarafından geliştirilmiştir. Araştırma verilerinin analizinde betimleyici istatistikler kullanılmış ve bu kapsamda   ortalama, frekans, yüzde, standart sapma,  t-testi ve tek faktörlü varyans analizi (one-way ANOVA) gibi analizlere yer verilmiştir.  Araştırma sonuçlarına göre, öğretmenlerin bireysel yenilikçilik düzeyleri  orta düzeyde; yenilikçilik kategorileri ise  “sorgulayıcı”  kategorisindedir.  Öğretmenlerin bireysel yenilikçilik özellikleri cinsiyetlerine gore anlamlı bir biçimde değişmezken; yaş ve görev yapılan lise türü değişkenleri bakımından anlamlı farklar göstermektedir. Bu doğrultuda, genç öğretmenlerin ve fen liselerinde görev yapan öğretmenlerin bireysel yenilikçilik düzeyleri ileri yaşlarda olan ve diğer liselerde (Anadolu ve Meslek liseleri) çalışan öğretmenlere göre daha yüksek bulunmuştur.  Bu doğrultuda, öğretmenleri daha yenilikçi kılmak için mevcut bürokratik, örgütsel ve bireysel engellerin ortadan kaldırılması, öğretmenlerin yeni uygulamaları denemeye, risk almaya, işbirliği yapmaya, yaratıcı fikirlerini ifade etmeye ve paylaşmaya  teşvik edilmesi  gerekmektedir. Çalışmanın genellenebilirliğini arttırmak için  çalışmanın  farklı eğitim kademelerini de içerecek biçimde genişletilmesi, örneklem sayısının arttırılması sağlanabilir.

Concussion Education

Background: A tremendous amount of resources and education have been directed towards those involved in high school athletics to help recognize the signs and symptoms of a concussion and ensure removal from play of potentially concussed athletes. Concussion education policies have been broadly implemented across the country; however, the success of these educational methods at encouraging adolescents to disclose their symptoms has yet to be determined. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to (1) identify how many student-athletes recognized they had been provided concussion education and (2) document disclosure and non-disclosure patterns. Methods: An anonymous survey was distributed to student-athletes at four Connecticut high schools. The survey contained demographic questions (sex, age, primary sport, and prior history of concussion) along with a question asking if the individual had received formal concussion education. The survey then asked in which of six provided situations the athlete would disclose their symptoms and which of eight provided reasons would prevent the athlete from disclosing their symptoms. Respondents were grouped by education status (received or not) and the difference in response frequency was evaluated using Chi-Square tests. Results: A total of 872 athletes (average age 15.8±1.3 years, 410 Males, 462 Females) completed the survey (61.2% response rate). A total of 583 (66.9%) athletes reported having received concussion education. Athletes who reported that they had not received concussion education were significantly younger than athletes that reported that they had received concussion education (p=<0.001). Both the education and non-education groups identified an important game as the least likely situation to disclose symptoms, and practice as the most likely situation. The most common reason for non-disclosure was “Don’t want to miss game” in the education group and “Don’t think I have a concussion” in the non-education group. Significant differences in response rates between groups were found for ‘Don’t think I have a concussion’ (p=0.038) and ‘Others played with concussions’ (p=0.005). Conclusion: Current educational efforts may not be successfully educating younger student-athletes about the importance of recognizing and reporting concussion symptoms. Within our small cohort of Connecticut high schools, approximately 1/3 of individuals reported not receiving education, and more than half of student-athletes report that they would not disclose concussion symptoms during important games despite receiving education. Further work is required to re-evaluate the efficacy of current educational programs available to high school athletes, focusing on non-disclosure reasons reported by varying ages of student-athletes.

The charitable endeavors of Muhammadiyah in the Bangka Belitung Region in the field of education from the levels of Elementary Schools, Junior High Schools, and High Schools and Vocational High Schools are spread to all districts/cities. However, the discussion about Muhammadiyah education in Bangka Belitung is very minimal. This research is a descriptive study with a qualitative approach. This study took the sample of the oldest and best senior high school as an illustration of Muhammadiyah education management in Bangka Belitung. The results showed that Muhammadiyah Education experienced various obstacles to the threat of closure, however, they were able to rise from adversity. Muhammadiyah Pangkalpinang High School as the oldest school departed from a school that boarded at Muhammadiyah Middle School and later became one of the most popular schools in the era of the 1990s to accommodate students up to 18 classes, but later it fell free and was almost closed due to the lack of students. Several times the change of school principals has not improved, a new hope is obtained when the management of this school is submitted to the STKIP Muhammadiyah Bangka Belitung to become its lab school. Now with new facilities and management, the number of students is increasing, slowly but surely this school is starting to improve itself. Meanwhile, Muhammadiyah Toboali High School, South Bangka Regency, which was established in 1994, almost lost public confidence, due to a large number of students who failed the National Examination for the 2006/2007 school year. The situation changed along with Supiandi's leadership, his persistence in managing the school, and finally, the trust in the community returned. Now the number of students has reached nearly 500 students
