SMP Muhammadiyah 2 Malang City is a school which is located on Jl Letjen Sutoyo No 68 Malang City. This school has great potential and has the opportunity to carry out two tier multiple choice question-making service activities because the school is the school's top priority (partner). The problem faced is that teachers have never compiled Two Tier Multiple Choice questions, especially science teachers. The science teacher said that he was always prepared questions for student evaluation instruments, either formative, sub-summative or summative, but the questions that were arranged were still conventional. The teacher said that he was not yet skilled in compiling HOTS questions, let alone the type of Two Tier Multiple Choice that he had never known. Activities to be carried out are socialization of teacher training programs, pre-test teacher assistance. Teachers have increased their abilities regarding the preparation of Two Tier Multiple Choice questions. The teacher-made question products have 30 sets or 60 items, and have been tested with the results of the questions that qualify as good questions

This paper presents the outcomes of a pilot study conducted with a group of students pursuing teacher training programs as part of the international research project called “Kitchen Lab for Kids” delivered under the “Erasmus+; Key Action 2” scheme. The aim of the research was to find out about students’ opinions on STEM education, including the determination of the level of their knowledge about this trend. In this context, particular attention was paid to issues related to the goals of STEM education, problems and challenges that they may generate, as well as the needs (organizational conditions) necessary to implement this type of activity. The respondents also had the opportunity to present their own experiences in organizing and conducting STEM classes. The research was carried out with the use of the qualitative methods, where the basic research method was focus interview. The research group consisted of 8 students of teaching faculties, mainly pre-school and early school education. The selection of research units was purposeful. The conducted qualitative analysis of the material collected during the focus interview showed that STEM education is still a novelty among students of teaching faculties. Future teachers have little experience in the implementation of activities taking into account the STEM model, but it should be expected that the coming years will result in a number of changes and activities in this area.

A survey of itinerant teachers in Texas found that, despite the numerous shortcomings of the job, the respondents believed there were many advantages. The respondents further identified the much needed ability to adjust to change, to put things in perspective, to modify their expectations, and to exercise a healthy sense of humor. This article details these shortcomings and advantages, suggests strategies for overcoming obstacles, and discusses the implications of the findings for administrators of schools and personnel of teacher-training programs.

The findings from a survey of public school programs for behaviorally disordered children are presented suggesting that a majority considered their theoretical focus to be behavioral. If a majority of university teacher-training programs in behavior disorder also consider their primary theoretical focus to be behavioral as previous research suggested, then the two would appear to complement each other. Another portion of the survey, however, indicated that the pragmatic approaches to treatment found in public school behavior disorders programs cover techniques reflecting a wide variety of theoretical models. Consequently, there exists a mismatch which prevents maximum effectiveness in both teacher training and service delivery for behaviorally disordered children. It was concluded that university teacher training programs should reflect a more eclectic stance by carefully synthesizing assorted theoretical components into a composite which meets the diverse pragmatic demands of public school programs for behaviorally disordered children.1
