ABSTRAK Kelainan refraksi merupakan penyebab low vision atau penglihatan terbatas terbanyak kedua setelah katarak dan masih menjadi masalah kesehatan masyarakat di seluruh dunia, termasuk Indonesia. Penglihatan merupakan jalur informasi utama dan faktor yang penting dalam proses belajar. Kemampuan penglihatan berkembang optimal sampai usia 9 tahun, sehingga keterlambatan dalam koreksi refraksi dapat menyebabkan berkurangnya kemampuan menyerap materi pembelajaran. Hal tersebut menghambat potensi untuk mengembangkan kecerdasannya yang akan berdampak pada prestasi belajar. Tujuan kegiatan ini adalah terapan dari hasil penelitian tentang Hubungan kelainan refraksi, status gizi terhadap prestasi belajar. Manfaat kegiatan agar guru dan orang tua dapat melakukan tindak lanjut jika anaknya memiliki gangguan refraksi sehingga gangguan penglihatan dapat teratasi dan prestasi belajar meningkat. Metode yang digunakan adalah 1). Sosialisasi program dan penyamaan persepsi. 2). Pemeriksaan kelainan refraksi. 3). Konsultasi kesehatan mata. Hasil kegiatan didapatkan sebagian besar sampel mengalami kelainan refraksi pada okuli dekstra berjumlah 17 siswa (65,4%).  Pada oculi sinistra mayoritas sampel mempunyai visus normal yaitu 13 (50%), diikuti dengan kelainan refraksi sejumlah 9 siswa (34,6%).  Dampak dari kegiatan ini murid menjadi paham tentang pentingnya menjaga kesehatan mata. Kata kunci: prestasi belajar, kelainan refraksi, murid SD  ABSTRACT Refractive disorders are the second most common cause of low vision or limited vision after cataracts and are still a public health problem around the world, including in Indonesia. Vision is the main line of information and an important factor in the learning process. Vision ability develops optimally until the age of 9 years, so delays in refraction correction can cause reduced ability to absorb learning material. This hampers the potential to develop intelligence which would have an impact on learning achievement. The purpose of this activity is the application of the results of research on the relationship of refractive errors, nutritional status to learning achievement. The benefits of the activity are so that teachers and parents can follow up if their child has refractive errors so that vision problems can be resolved and learning achievement increases. The methods used were 1). Program socialization and shared perceptions. 2). Examination for refractive errors. 3). Eye health counseling and consultation. The results showed that most of the samples had refractive errors in the right oculi, amounting to 17 students (65.4%). In the left oculi, the majority of the samples had normal vision, namely 13 (50%), followed by refractive errors of 9 students (34.6%). The impact of this activity is that students understand the importance of maintaining eye health. Keywords:  refractive disorder, learning achievement, elementary school students

The 1989 Convention on the Rights of the Child is relatively recent. In 2007, the Lanzarote Convention was signed (ratified by Italy by Law n. 172/2012) as the first international legal instrument for to contribute to the goal of protecting children against sexual exploitation and sexual abuse, whoever the perpetrator may be, and of providing assistance to victims. However, results seem still absent. Even in laughter the heart may be in pain, the grief remains in the hearts of children, and violence continues to spread in the silence and indifference of the adults. The author thus gives an important part of the text to display the collected statistical data and affirms the need to establish a system of continuous monitoring. He affirms the need to see and hear: essential to perceive, understand, discover and denounce the violence and break the silence, but also to protect abused children, even in the steps of the legal process. To achieve this it is necessary for doctors, social workers, judges, teachers and parents to work together as a team to defend the right to childhood and to respect the body-person. This is the challenge ethics and politics, now, ten years from Lanzarote.

Abstract One of the major challenges facing special and general education teachers and parents in Guyana is the current educational move towards inclusion. This move has been characterized by the changing political and economic systems which have resulted in inclusion gaining increased momentum in many circles including major organizations, institutions, and even among members of civil society. Inclusion has also been touted as the prelude to meaningful political, economic, social, educational, religious, and cultural engagement in governance and other decision making processes in Guyana. The concept hinges on the right to participate and become involved in various activities regardless of ability or disability. The Jomtien Declaration (1990) which was adopted by the World Conference on Education for All in Thailand in March 1990, mandates the removal of barriers to education for all children. The declaration also affirms the right to education for every individual as well as equal access for all categories of persons with disabilities (United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), 1990). While the main pillar of the declaration is the right to education, it also mandates the removal of barriers that would prevent equal learning opportunities for vulnerable and marginalized groups (UNESCO, 1990). This paper examines issues relevant to inclusion and the education of children with learning disabilities in Guyana. The author gives an account of the political system, inclusive education, and legislation for persons with disabilities, and highlights the challenges faced by teachers in educating children with learning disabilities in Guyana.

The study examines the issues of introducing a student to independent reading, the development of the need for reading, the ability to choose the right book, and make the appropriate necessary selection of literature. Theoretical research showed the reading preferences of a modern child, a change in the circle of his reading interests. There are approaches to reading on electronic media and in the traditional “paper” format. The interrelation of reading and the child's desire for his own literary creation, the implementation of other types of creative activity is traced. Despite the decline in reading culture, children began to pay much more attention to reading. Large reading projects have emerged, such as Successful Reading, Time to Read, Good Lyre, etc. A national program for the support and development of reading for 2018–2023, Reading Childhood, has appeared. The Good Lyre project was conceived in our basic lyceum No. 590 in St. Petersburg. The essence of the project is to organize a literary competition for professional writers and to involve students, teachers and parents as a public jury to evaluate the works sent to the competition. Its main task is to familiarize schoolchildren with meaningful reading of modern prose, promote their mastery of the technology of independent book selection, and develop the ability to conduct a discussion on what they have read. During the implementation of the project, reading affects the personal development of the student, the formation of his individuality, the stimulation of such processes as self-knowledge, self-determination, self-development, self-realization.

Age 0 - 8 years is the golden age. In this age the child's brain is like a sponge, which is all things that are seen, heard, and felt by children absorbed well by the child. Therefore at this time the child must get the right stimulation in every aspect of his development. One aspect that must be stimulated is gross motoric. This aspect relates to the child's ability to move the large parts of his body, such as the hands and feet. Some activities that can be given to children related to gross motoric skills are jumping, walking, running, and throwing a ball. The disruption of the development of gross motoric aspects in children can affect the development to other aspects. Therefore, the gross motoric aspect must be the one of teachers and parents' concerns as a result the child's development tasks can be achieved according to his age.

Major depressive disorder (MDD) and other affective disorders may surreptitiously arise in children and adolescents during their school period and impair their social and educational functioning. Besides the social and personal burden, which are increased during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, the onset of depression may compromise the future of the growing person with chronicity and recurrence. In this context, educators’ training is essential to detect early the onset of a depressive disorder, to spare later consequences through the timely establishment of adequate treatment. The educational staff should receive adequate training to be able to work closely with healthcare providers and parents, thus directing the young person with an affective disorder to the right psychological and pharmacological treatment provider, i.e., a specialized psychologist or psychiatrist. The first approach should be to establish a trustful relationship with the adolescent and his/her classmates, to reduce social and self-stigma and inform about mental illness. If symptoms do not subside and the suffering child or adolescent fails to reintegrate within his/her school environment, cognitive–behavioral interventions are recommended that are individual, group, or computer-based. When needed, these should be implemented with individualized pharmacotherapy.
