This study aims to identify and overcome challenges in the governance of boarding services in Islamic boarding schools. The needs analysis reveals problems with dormitory facilities, including capacity, number, proficiency, and the quality of dormitory coaches. This research develops a structured HASANAH boarding service governance model by highlighting three aspects: Boarding Services, Management Principles and Quality Management, and HR/Dormitory Coach Roles. The model's validity, practicality, and effectiveness are evaluated to improve the quality of boarding school services. This research employs the Research and Development (R&D) method with a systems approach consisting of four stages: (1) Preliminary study stage; (2) Model development stage; (3) Product validation and trial phase; and (4) Model production stage. Data is sourced from the results of validation of education experts and management about the content and construct of the model, as well as assessment data from cottage managers, teachers/coaches, and students about the quality of Islamic boarding school services. The instruments used are questionnaires, observation sheets, and interviews. Research data analysis techniques use quantitative and qualitative descriptive analysis. The results provide a detailed picture of development conditions and needs through average values and percentages for each aspect. Testing the validity and practicality of the model shows a high level of acceptance and usability on the part of Islamic boarding schools, supporting the conclusion that this model is valid and practical to be applied as one of the guidelines in the governance of boarding services. The evaluation of the model's effectiveness highlights its positive impact on improving the quality of boarding services. With the positive results of the trial, it can be concluded that this model is able to make a real contribution to improving aspects of boarding services in the Islamic boarding school environment. This research provides an in-depth view and potentially significant solutions to improve the governance of boarding services in South Sulawesi.

Nepal identifies as the country of diversity and three belts (Mountain, Hills and Terai) all together in same county. Sociological views are important to analyze the numerous aspects. Homelessness is a global issue striking Nepal left challenges to the policy makers to understand and manage Urban-Rural issues. This study aims to identified the reason of homeless in Nepal. A longitudinal study covering all seven-Provinces were designed to analysis. A Qualitative-Quantitative study design trailed intruded self-structured questionnaires covering 399 Questions from staff members of the homeless center were collected. Further, FGD with the Homeless people was conducted to verify the fact of the homeless in the centers and KII interview with different Government and private organizations was done to obtain the field reality. Homeless causes due to the onset of floods/ landslides, fire, mega-earthquake of 2015 surge the number in Nepal. The lack of education noticed the prime reason within the homeless peoples. Managing homeless is challenging- district authority through police sent peoples to the respective centers to care. The children less than 16 years are listed high followed by old age and adults respectively. The health and social issues are another vital reason of homelessness. The study concluded as homeless primarily lack of education as well as social, political, cultural and many other domestic cases are concern to it. From the Sociological lens, the policy debate and service providing are the best approach to manage in future. Public and private effort are a must to manage and run the homeless issues.

Reasoning ability is a hot topic in the field of education at home and abroad. Based on the meaning and training requirements of reasoning ability in the Mathematics Curriculum Standards for Compulsory Education (2022 Edition), this paper studies the current teaching status of classroom reasoning ability in junior high schools, and draws the following conclusions: 1. Teachers carry out teaching activities closely around the requirements of curriculum standards and textbook content; 2. Some teachers, especially veteran teachers have the thinking inertia of teaching; 3. Most students can only focus on what they are currently learning; 4. Students are inert in learning. Therefore, this paper gives the following four teaching suggestions: 1. Teachers engage in group lesson planning; 2. Teachers include a section in the exercise class where students explain the exercises; 3. The teacher expands the content of the textbook appropriately when teaching, and shows students the theorem-proving process; 4. Teachers conduct unit thematic teaching activities. The above four suggestions will help teachers to cultivate students' reasoning ability.

Aim: In this paper, we examine how ambidextrous organisational practices can be used to advance the management of public basic schools in accepting behaviours that can improve physical activities of children. Methodology: Drawing on extant literature and desk review of policy documents including school reports, we examine physical activities in public basic schools in Ghana and then explore three key developmental systems – managerial responsiveness, healthcare variation and educational development and highlight four areas from these systems; organisational processes, infrastructure development, human resource improvements, and stakeholder collaboration where policy makers can focus their efforts to improving physical activity in school children in Ghana. Findings: The findings demonstrate a seeming absence of structures for physical activity in public basic schools in Ghana - presenting severe consequences, especially for the healthy growth of children, proper integration of children into society, learning processes, and developing talents for future sporting activities in general. Again, the analysis shows that the Ghana Education Service’s implementation guidelines for physical activity in public basic schools are not yielding the needed results - thus provoking policy dialogues in managerial practices for effective implementation of those guidelines. Next, we propose the promotion of physical activity in public basic schools in Ghana through sustainable and pragmatic approaches drawing from ambidextrous managerial practices to strengthen organisational capacity in the schools for improvements in movement behaviours, lifestyle changes, active learning, and physical activity levels of school children. Conclusion: Practical approaches are needed to enhance the physical activity for children and this requires the initiation of active schools’ programme in public basic schools – and clearly learning from best practices in the last decades, examples from other countries provide a really useful approach in the years ahead.

The Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education in Bangladesh permits students to choose a specialization based on aptitude, passion, and academic excellence that equips them for the college degree of their choice. So, the students who prefer the science stream are recognized as capable in all aspects. This study aims to explore the socio-economic characteristics of the STEM girls in Khulna and Rajshahi Districts of Bangladesh who are studying in classes IX and X in the science stream at secondary school, which assesses their ability to pursue STEM education. For this, the researchers have chosen a survey design. The study utilized 410 STEM girl students for a questionnaire survey from eight girls' high schools in Bangladesh's Khulna and Rajshahi districts. The schools were selected purposefully, and the students were selected randomly from classes nine and ten. Besides this, four focus group discussions (FGD) were conducted in four selected schools, where 44 (forty-four) participants attended and gave their opinions, comments, and observations. Data and information have been collected between July 2021 and June 2023. Using descriptive statistics and qualitative methods, socio-economic strands of the STEM girls have been explored, which cover their religious affiliation, age, marital status, educational qualifications of respondents' parents, occupational status of their parents, household-based income and expenditure analysis of the respondents' parents or guardians, information about family and siblings of the STEM girls, monthly expense analysis, and residential status. It was found that most of them are ahead of the national index of Bangladesh in some indexes. So, it is logical to claim that even though some STEM girls face severe problems, they are capable of studying STEM education in Bangladesh's existing framework.

Right to Education is considered to be empowering each and every child of the nation by bringing educational opportunity to their doorsteps. Developing countries have made tremendous progress in getting children into schools. But learning is not guaranteed. Evidences suggests that children who are in school are not learning the basics of literacy and numeracy or the additional knowledge and skills necessary for their all-round development as specified in the policies. An estimated 617 million children and adolescents around the world are unable to reach minimum proficiency levels in reading and mathematics. Without foundational learning, students often fail to thrive later in school or when they join the workforce. World Bank also indicated that we are in the midst of a global learning crisis that threatens countries’ efforts to build human capital – the skills and know-how needed for the jobs of the future. This learning crisis is the greatest global challenge to preparing children and adolescents for life, work and active citizenship. In India also, where GER at elementary level is 100%, more than fifty percent of children are ‘learning poor’. This paper is an attempt to highlight the dynamics of the learning crisis in India in terms of its antecedents and repercussions. Further, evidence based systemic interventions have been proposed to eliminate the present and future crises, and ensure that every child learns.

Supervision is inseparable with education. In school, the principal performs supervisory roles to guide personnel and implement activities. However, the school head in a stand-alone senior high school reported challenges that influenced her supervisory roles. Hence, this study sought to examine the challenges and supervisory roles of the school head in stand-alone senior high school. Three research questions guided the paper which employed phenomenological-case study. One school head and six teachers in the same school of Region XI were chosen using the purposive sampling technique. The researchers conducted in- depth interview using the Office Performance Commitment and Review Form (OPCRF). Employing Colaizzi’s technique and content analysis, the researchers analyzed and clustered responses into themes. Results revealed that the school head encountered challenges in their supervisory role such as limited resources, curriculum demands and changes, teacher retention, community and parental involvement, and maintenance and improvement of infrastructures and facilities. With the findings of the supervisory roles and supervisory roles insights, the school heads are encouraged to create a strategic plan that contains clear steps and measures to address the supervisory challenges to be guided on what roles to take. Department of Education leaders might also help them address these challenges by assigning senior high school focal persons to directly respond to the needs and capacitate the school heads to enhance their supervisory skills. Moreover, stakeholders are encouraged to strengthen their involvement in stand-alone senior high schools. Lastly, future researchers might be inspired conduct a related study with more participants in a single case to comprehensively investigate their supervisory roles.

The research aims to answer the question of how the role of values and natural science education in religious moderation. This research was conducted with a qualitative approach with a literature review method. The validity of the data is determined by triangulation and reduction and then presented descriptively. Research data shows that the values in natural science learning, especially in the aspect of scientific attitudes, are closely related to attitudes of religious moderation. The values of a scientific attitude in natural science learning are in line with the values of an attitude of religious moderation. Based on the data obtained and the discussion carried out, it can be concluded that science and its learning have great potential to develop an attitude of religious moderation. Thus, it is clear and unquestionable that science learning can be used as an alternative to developing an attitude of religious moderation in Indonesia. Another advantage of developing an attitude of religious moderation is that the values in science can be applied generally, anywhere, and anytime. Therefore, religious moderation developed through scientific learning does not only apply to certain religions but also applies in general.

This research was conducted with a qualitative approach with a literature review method. The validity of the data is determined by triangulation and reduction and then presented descriptively. Research data shows that the values in natural science learning, especially in the aspect of scientific attitudes, are closely related to attitudes of religious moderation. The values of a scientific attitude in natural science learning are in line with the values of an attitude of religious moderation. Based on the data obtained and the discussion carried out, it can be concluded that science and its learning have great potential to develop an attitude of religious moderation. Thus, it is clear and unquestionable that science learning can be used as an alternative to developing an attitude of religious moderation in Indonesia. Another advantage of developing an attitude of religious moderation is that the values in science can be applied generally, anywhere, and anytime. Therefore, religious moderation developed through scientific learning does not only apply to certain religions but also applies in general. All religious adherents (regardless of religion and belief) can be moderated through systematically planned science learning.","PeriodicalId":502349,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Education and Social Studies","volume":"30 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139596360","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the goals of Construction Management is to effectively oversee the utilization of Human Resources in the execution of a construction project. Indonesia is among the key proponents of establishing the Economic Community integration. The government has undertaken various measures to align with the economic collaboration among the ten ASEAN nations, including the development of competent human resources. Thus far, training observations have been conducted without any provision of training or technical guidance for workers regarding a construction project that possesses local knowledge significance. The objective of this study is to analyze the requirements of the competency training model for residential construction workers that incorporate local wisdom values, and to develop the corresponding training model. This study employed the Research and Development approach to investigate the competency standards for building work executors that are associated with building construction and incorporate local wisdom values. The ADDIE development model (Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) was utilized to create the training model. Findings of the research the initial survey conducted on 30 workers revealed an average competence level of 30.9%, which falls within the category of weak competence according to local wisdom. Additionally, all workers (100%) expressed agreement in enhancing their competence in residential houses that embody local wisdom ideals. The competency training model was designed utilizing the ADDIE Research & Development Model, which consists of five components: model syntax, social system, reaction principle, support system, instructional impact, and accompanying impact. This model comprises a model book, teaching material modules, and books.
