MBKM program has been implemented by several universities, including at the Universitas Bandar Lampung. Universities need to determine policies that serve as guidelines for the study programs they cover, including support for cross-study learning and allocation of funds, as well as ensuring that the quality of graduates will not decrease by running this program. For this reason, in its implementation, it is necessary to form an institutional model for the implementation of Merdeka Learning Program - Merdeka Campus to see who has a role and how the relationship between these parties plays a role. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach. In collecting the data, it applies literature studies and In-Depth Interviews with resource persons who are experts related to the Merdeka Learning Program - Merdeka Campus. The results in this study found that in the implementation of the Merdeka Learning Program - Merdeka Campus at the Universitas Bandar Lampung, there were internal and external stakeholders involved. Each stakeholder has its respective roles and relationships, both coordination and command relationships, both between internal stakeholders and between internal and external stakeholders. Everything is described in the institutional model of the Merdeka Learning Program - Merdeka Campus.

Various indications, including literature, have confirmed that university classrooms are still mostly inactive and undemocratic, dominated by instructors and lecturers. That is, little or no atmosphere is created for the student to be a socially active participant in generating knowledge which appears to have affected their sociality in the university and their lives after their university education. Some university lecturers still use a traditional or a systematic colonized way of teaching. This study responded by proposing unabridged Social Constructivism (SC) to create socially active university students towards becoming productive and active citizens. This was done by answering a general question: How can SC be projected in the university classroom to create active and productive students? This study was located within a transformative paradigm in order to transform students’ inactiveness in the process of generating knowledge. Conceptual analysis was used to design the study. This was done within the principle of thematic analysis by arranging SC's assumptions into themes and making sense of them. The study thus presents that SC possesses the acumen to assist lecturers in ensuring that their classrooms are socially active towards student productivity both in the schools and in the field of work.

Learners' thoughts are important for academic motivation and learning in secondary schools. Specifically, this study aims to determine the extent to which school-related irrational beliefs influence academic motivation among secondary school students. Using a multi-stage random sampling technique, 740 secondary school students of both genders were selected as a sample: 303 boys and 437 girls. The Irrational Beliefs Inventory (IBI) and the Academic Motivation Scale (AMS) were used for data collection. In order to answer research questions, mean scores, standard deviations, and Pearson product moment correlation analysis were used while the hypotheses were tested using regression analysis at 0.05 level of significance. A statistically significant relationship was found between irrational beliefs and academic motivation among secondary school learners. A key recommendation of the study is that secondary school psychologists should teach learners on the adverse impact of irrational beliefs.

This study aims to determine how the application of the STEAM approach to science learning in junior high school. The research was conducted by giving questionnaires to science subject teachers at the junior high school level in Surabaya, Sidoarjo, and several surrounding areas. Based on the results of the questionnaire given to the science teacher, it showed that 72% of the STEAM approach had been understood by the science teacher, 12% said they did not understand the STEAM approach and the remaining 16% answered doubtfully whether they understood the STEAM approach in science learning. However, only about 50% of science teachers who understand carry out learning using the STEAM approach. As many as 28% stated the lack of supporting articles for implementing the STEAM approach. Another result stated that 56% of teachers had difficulty in referencing learning tools with the STEAM approach which had to be adapted to school conditions and another 16% needed training to apply the STEAM approach to be applied in learning. Based on the results obtained, the largest percentage needed by teachers to help implement science learning using the STEAM approach is the need for learning tools. Therefore, STEAM-based learning tools really need to be developed, especially for the science teaching and learning process.

The present study aimed to assess Sri Lankan school students’ perceptions on the experience of participating in remote learning activities (RLA) available to them during the time of COVID-19 pandemic. This study was conducted as a survey. Using the exponential non-discriminative snowball sampling technique, data were collected from 613 school students through a questionnaire administered as a Google Form. Data were analyzed as mean values, standard deviations, and percentages. Analysis of data revealed that majority of respondents (92%) were well aware of the various RLA. Majority of the respondents (62.6%) used mobile internet and 69.5% used prepaid services. The main challenges they faced were related to affordability, heavy load of educational content presented through RLA, and concerns on cyber security when engaging with RLA. To make opportunities for learning more accessible to learners, it is recommended that mobile data be made available to school students at low costs and all educational programs should be made available to them free of charge. In addition, devices such as tablets should be provided to all students in order to ensure equality of access to education. Further, studies on parents’ and teachers’ experiences with their children’s and students’ learning through RLA would complement the findings of this study.

The 2013 curriculum aims to form students who are ready to face the 21st century so that the 2013 curriculum is not only taught about aspects of knowledge but also aspects of skills. Thinking skills are the skills used in the 2013 curriculum, where one of the thinking skills students need is expertise in analytical thinking. These skills are necessary for science learning. Analytical thinking skills can be improved if the teacher trains them correctly, both from the learning model and learning strategies. This study examines learning models and learning tools that can improve analytical thinking skills. Learning based on inquiry learning is expected to improve students' analytical thinking skills. The findings of this study, it is known that inquiry-based models and tools can improve analytical thinking skills because they start from a problem. The problems given are then discussed with the group to find information that fits the situation and find ways to solve the problem nicely by conducting experiments or observations, then summing up the results obtained and communicating them well. Analytical thinking skills are closely related to problem-solving. So with analytical thinking skills, students will quickly identify and solve a problem.
