Education Reconstruction: A Collaboration of Quiz Team and Kahoot Methods in Learning Arabic

The purpose of this paper is to start from an educational reconstruction paradigm to support teachers to always innovate in creating innovative teaching methods, especially in learning Arabic, especially in learning that uses technology, given that education is already in the era of the industrial revolution 4.0, where every Human are required to be technology literate. This study uses experimental research Borg & Gall, the focus is to determine the level of influence of treatment on behavior that arises as a result of the treatment and or as a systematic method to build relationships that contain causal-effect relationships. Based on the results of this study it was found that; First, the combination of the Quiz Team-type Active Learning method with Kahoot is the right ingredient to make it easier for students to learn Arabic by training the four maharah or language skills, namely: listening (istima'), reading (qirā'ah), speaking (kalām). , and write (kitābah) at the same time; Second, the results of this study are in the form of design designs, and the role of educators in implementing the collaboration of the quiz team and Kahoot methods in learning Arabic.

This study aims to develop a chemical literacy instrument on colloidal system material that can be used to measure the literacy level of students. The research design on the development of this chemical literacy instrument uses the Model of Educational Reconstruction (MER). This research has several stages including content structure analysis (curriculum analysis, content analysis, context analysis, content validity by subject matter experts) and teaching and learning research (student interview investigation). The content validity test is carried out by five validators and the results will be analyzed by the Rasch model using the facet application. The results of this study indicate that the value of exact agreements is 88.9%, while the value of the expected agreements is 89.6% so it can be said that the results of the examiner's assessment are not much different from the expected results of the assessment

Leading educational reconstruction in post-conflict Cambodia: Perspectives of primary school leaders

Despite the growing academic interests in educational leadership recently, hardly any of it has focused on post-conflict situations. This paper seeks to generate an understanding of the perspectives of primary school leaders in post-conflict Cambodia on the issues they face in the process of educational reconstruction and development and the strategies they adopt to deal with those issues. A qualitative research approach within the interpretivist paradigm was adopted to guide the study. Semi-structured interviews were used to collect data with 20 primary school leaders. Data were analysed using grounded theory data analysis methods, namely, open coding and analytic induction. The study argues that while there has been substantial progress in educational reconstruction generally in post-conflict Cambodia, primary school leaders face multiple issues in their day-to-day work. Some of the issues may be specifically attributed to the legacies of armed conflict and genocide while others may refer to the broader context of the developing world. The findings have implications for policy and practice in educational leadership and further research in the post-conflict and developing-country contexts.

An Educational Reconstruction of Special Relativity Theory for Secondary Education

Einstein’s derivation of special relativity theory (SRT), based on hypothetical reasoning and thought experiments, is regarded as a prime example of physics theory development. In secondary education, the introduction of SRT could provide a great opportunity for students to engage in physics theorizing, but this opportunity is largely being missed in current teaching practice. One reason could be that secondary students lack some knowledge of electromagnetism that was central to Einstein’s argument. Therefore, we conducted an educational reconstruction to develop a teaching approach that would not rely on advanced understanding of electromagnetism, yet retain the modes of reasoning that were characteristic of Einstein’s approach. In our reconstruction, we identified the light postulate, which is notoriously difficult for students to grasp, as a central concept. We developed a teaching and learning sequence in which students perform relativistic thought experiments and try different interpretations of the light postulate. Through these activities, students experienced how the new concepts meet the requirements for a good theory. Experimental evaluation of the teaching and learning sequence indicates that this can be a fruitful approach to introduce SRT to secondary students.

This study aims to develop chemical literacy items on chemical bonding material that can be used to measure students literacy skills, help students understand chemical literacy-based questions, understand chemistry, communicate chemistry orally and in writing, and apply their ability to solve problems in daily life. The type of research is development research with Model of Educational Reconstruction (MER) design. The content validity test was carried out by five validators and analysed using the Rasch model with the facets application. Meanwhile, empirical testing of students was analysed using the Rasch model with the winsteps application. The results of the content validity analysis in this study showed the results of the agreement (exact agreements) of 86,8 percent and the estimated results of the approval (expected agreements) of 87,8 percent, and the results of the analysis of chemical literacy instruments had a valid category and had a reliability value of 0,96.

Educational reconstruction of size-depended-properties in nanotechnology for teaching in tertiary education

There is an overarching theme in Science Education to integrate in the school and university curriculum interdisciplinary state-of-art innovations. The field of Nanotechnology is such an example, because it combines the aforementioned interdisciplinarity and novelty with a well-documented educational value. Herein, a novel teaching approach concerning size-dependent properties at the nanoscale for chemistry and physics undergraduate students is proposed. The analysis of the scientific content and its following reconstruction for teaching purposes is based on the theoretical framework of the Model of Educational Reconstruction (MER). This analysis yielded two fundamental concepts and a series of activities that can be the main core of teaching Nanotechnology at a university level.
