Mentoring Activities of Applied Science to Improve the Competence of Natural Science Teachers in Prakarya Learning in Sijunjung RegencyAbstract. Junior high school natural science teachers in Sijunjung Regency are still not optimal in teaching of prakarya. This is due to the lack of application of natural science in prakarya learning. Prakarya subjects have four material aspects, namely: crafts, engineering, cultivation, and processing. The material aspect of crafts is more dominantly taught by science teachers in prakarya subjects even though this material aspect is more appropriate to be taught by arts / culture teachers. In addition, there are still very few natural science teachers who are able to compile prakarya student worksheets. The Community Partnership Program in the form of mentoring activities of applied natural science is very much needed by natural science teachers in learning prakarya. This activity aims to motivate and help natural science teachers to continue to improve their competencies, especially professional and pedagogical competencies. Community service activities in the form of mentoring activities use a method that consists of several stages. The initial stage is the orientation and discussion phase. The second stage is the preparation phase of the activity. The third stage is the mentoring stage 1 (in) with use the explanation, demonstration, and practice methods on mentoring activity. Data collection techniques with pre-test and post-test methods and analyzed using normalized gain. This activity has been carried out for 5 months from March to July 2019 at SMP Negeri 11 Sijunjung, Kamang Baru District, Sijunjung Regency, West Sumatra Province. The results of the activities showed that increasing the pedagogical competence of the Sijunjung district's natural science teachers in the prakarya learning was satisfactory. Meanwhile, increasing professional competence is quite satisfying. So, overall the improvement in the competence of Sijunjung district's natural science teachers in prakarya learning has been satisfactory.Keywords: Community service, applied natural science, prakarya, professional, pedagogicalAbstrak. Guru-guru IPA SMP di Kabupaten Sijunjung masih belum optimal dalam mengajarkan prakarya. Hal ini disebabkan karena masih kurangnya penerapan IPA dalam pembelajaran prakarya. Mata pelajaran prakarya memiliki empat aspek materi yaitu: kerajinan, rekayasa, budidaya, dan pengolahan. Aspek materi kerajinan lebih dominan diajarkan oleh guru IPA dalam mata pelajaran prakarya padahal aspek materi ini lebih tepat diajarkan oleh  guru seni budaya/keterampilan. Selain itu, masih sedikitnya guru IPA yang mampu menyusun bahan ajar prakarya. Program Kemitraan Masyarakat dalam bentuk pendampingan implementasi sains terapan sangat diperlukan guru IPA dalam pembelajaran prakarya. Kegiatan ini bertujuan untuk memotivasi dan membantu guru-guru IPA untuk terus meningkatkan kompetensinya terutama kompetensi professional dan pedagogik. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat dalam bentuk kegiatan pendampingan ini menggunakan metode yang terdiri dari beberapa tahapan. Tahap awal yang dilaksanakan adalah tahap orientasi dan diskusi. Tahap kedua berupa tahap persiapan kegiatan. Tahap ketiga adalah tahap pendampingan 1 (in) dengan menggunakan metode ceramah, demonstrasi, dan praktik pada kegiatan pendampingan. Teknik pengumpulan data dengan metode pre-test dan post-test dan dianalisis menggunakan gain ternormalisasi. Kegiatan ini telah dilaksanakan selama 5 bulan dari bulan Maret sampai dengan Juli 2019 di SMP Negeri 11 Sijunjung Kecamatan Kamang Baru, Kabupaten Sijunjung Provinsi Sumatera Barat. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan bahwa peningkatan kompetensi pedagogik guru-guru IPA kabupaten Sijunjung dalam pembelajaran prakarya sudah memuaskan.

Digital Competencies

For the planning and implementation of lessons with digital technologies, a subject-specific technology-related professional competence of teachers is of central importance. However, the competency frameworks developed so far remain in a general perspective and do not explicitly address subject-specific issues. Furthermore, digital competencies are predominantly measured with subject-unspecific self-assessment instruments, as subject-specific operationalizations for this area are not yet available in a differentiated form. In this article, the framework for Digital Competencies for Teaching in Science Education (DiKoLAN), a subject-specific framework for pre-service science teachers, is introduced, on the one hand, and, on the other hand, first results of a self-assessment tool based on the framework are described. DiKoLAN defines competency areas highly specific to science, as well as more general competency areas that include aspects common to all subjects. Each competency area is described by competency expectations, which, in turn, are structured with reference to the four technology-related dimensions of the TPACK framework (i.e., Technological and Pedagogical Content Knowledge) and three levels of performance (Name, Describe, Use/Apply). Derived from DiKoLAN, a corresponding self-assessment instrument (DiKoLAN-Grid) was developed and empirically tested for the two competency areas, (n = 118) and Information Search and Evaluation (n = 90), in biology student teachers. By means of path models, tendencies regarding structural correlations of the four components Special Tools (TK), Content-specific Context (TCK), Methods and Digitality (TPK), and Teaching (TPACK) are presented for both competency areas and discussed, as well as in comparison to previously conducted, subject-unspecific surveys.

Relevance and expediency of introduction of a training course of computer mathematics for students of “Secondary Education (Computer Science)” is caused by necessity of use of computer equipment with the corresponding software almost in all areas of human activity; the fact that computer mathematics is one of priority directions of research work both in the field of mathematical sciences, and in the field of computer science. Computer mathematics is a field of applied computer science in which problems of development, implementation and use of information technologies for solving mathematical problems are studied. The purpose of teaching computer mathematics is to study and use computer mathematics systems by students to solve applied problems; to master the conceptual and terminological base of modern computer science as a fundamental science; to master theoretical fundamentals of computer science related to formal systems, knowledge bases and models of their representation, models and algorithms of decision making. Formulation of the problem. The study of computer mathematics by future computer science teachers and the use of modern systems of computer mathematics to solve applied problems, creates their system of professional competencies, in particular, informatics competencies in computer mathematics, informatics and mathematical competencies and skills to use modern information technology to analyze mathematical models of processes and phenomena from a variety of fields of knowledge and human activities. Materials and methods. To achieve this goal, the following research methods were used: analysis of scientific and pedagogical literature on the research topic; analysis of curricula, work programs and manuals on the subject "Computer Mathematics"; empirical methods (questionnaire, conversation, pedagogical observation, modeling). Results. This paper has built the model of building informatics competence within the professional competence of the future computer science teacher at the expense of integration of mathematical and information knowledge on the basis of mathematical modeling in environments of systems of computer mathematics, as these systems are an effective means of realization of inter-subject connections of computer science with other subjects of a natural-mathematical cycle. Conclusions. The study of "Computer Mathematics" courses by future computer science teachers, using computer mathematics systems, contributes to the formation of components of the information competence system in the field of information, mathematical and computer modeling.

The relevance of the study is determined by the fact that the formation of the principles of teaching the use of information technologies needs to be laid in the learning process. The aim is to study the working conditions of a modern computer science teacher and to determine the main directions of their training. The method of analysis made it possible to identify the discrepancy between the realities of the work of a computer science teacher at school and the training system at a university. The paper shows that digitalisation of learning is determined not only by the use of certain digital products but also by the formation of a digital learning environment. The practical significance is determined by the possibilities of a structural understanding of teaching future computer science teachers when using a combination of information technologies with the need to use them in practice in a modern school.   Keywords: information and communication technologies (ICT); information educational environment; pedagogical activity; professional competence.
