Computer-based education makes it possible for gifted and talented middle school and early high school students to complete advanced courses in mathematics and physics several years before they would nocinally do so Since the fall of 1990, three such groups of students at the Education Program for Gifted Youth at Stanford University have taken courses at the advanced placement level and have done exceedingly well. This report details those results.

Road traffic safety education through campaigns and counseling has often been carried out by Politeknik Keselamatan Transportasi Jalan (PKTJ) Tegal as an educational institution that focuses on safety. The campaigns were given to students who are in kindergarten to high schools/ vocational high schools and also the general public by Computer Based Application (CBA). The most difficult campaign was done for Junior high school students. This study aims to make CBA as a medium of campaign in improving understanding of traffic safety. The method used is an experiment with One Group Pre test-Post test. Data collection technique was Purposive Sampling. The research samples were 82 students who come from three different junior high schools. Data collection used test methods (Pre-test and Post-test). The results show that there was an increasing result from i.e; from the low category to high, so that it can be concluded that CBA improves understanding of traffic safety in students of class VIII SMP N 1, N 4 and N 5 Ciamis.

<p><strong>ABSTRACT</strong></p><p><br />In 2015, Ministry of Education and Culture, Republic of Indonesia did a<br />breakthrough in the educational communication field, it is online-national<br />examination, known as computer based test. In Jakarta, implementation of<br />computer based test is coordinated by Provincial Education Board of DKI<br />Jakarta and caried out 30 schools which consist of 1 junior high school, 3<br />senior high schools, and 26 vocational schools. SMPK 2 Penabur Jakarta was<br />the first and chosen by government to run that new examination method. The<br />purpose of this research is to know about comparison between paper based<br />test in 2014 and computer based test in 2015 at SMPK 2 Penabur Jakarta,<br />that was held on May 4 until 7, 2015. Selection of research subject was based<br />on psychological characteristic of 9<br /> grade students in junior high school<br />(14 – 15 years old) who prioritized to observe on. The research applied social<br />judgment theory by Muzafer Sherif. This qualitative-descriptive research used<br />case study method and based on constructivism paradigm. Data collection was<br />conducted by interview, Focus Group Discussion (FGD), and documentation<br />study through online media. The result of this study shows that computer based<br />test is more excellent than paper based test. SMPK 2 Penabur Jakarta gave<br />positive response for this innovation.<br /><br />Keywords: Educational Communication, National Examination, Social<br />Judgment, Junior High School Students.</p><p>Judgment, Junior High School Students.</p>

The Excess of the Incomplete Learning of Reading and Writing of Qur'an towards the Increase in the Quantity of Arabic Illiteracy among Public High School / Vocational High School Students in BandungThis research aimed to find the objective condition of AL-Qur’an illiteracy among senior high school or vocational high school students in Bandung and its causes. It used a descriptive qualitative research methodwith observations and questionnaires as data collection instruments. The results showed the following: 1) the literacy rate of AL-Qur’an  illiteracy among senior high school or vocational high school students in Bandung reached an average of 13% and who were not good at reading (tahsin) were 80%; 2) There were many factors of less successful in learning AL-Qur’an, either internal or external factors. The conclusion showed the incomplete Baca Tulis Alquran  (BTQ or reading and writing ofAL-Qur’an) in Islamic subject learning caused by AL-Qur’an illiteracy among senior high school / vocational high school students in Bandung. Its inadequacy was due to students’ low perception and motivation in the subject. Their low perception and motivation were due to unclear vision and mission of learning because BTQ learning was not the main school program, and it was also not tested at National Exam and Computer Based Test. Hence, the teacher of Islamic subject and its learning implementation were less noticed. The researchers recommend the new and varied BTQ learning designs and competent teachers to achieve religious Bandung

Sixty-two high-school biology students, paired heterogeneously based on prior knowledge, learned about genetic using GenScope, a computer-based learning environment (CBLE), over four 90-minute class periods. Differences between low and high prior knowledge students emerged with convergence of verbal process data and pre- and post-test product data. The low prior knowledge students gained significantly in conceptual understanding from pre- to post-test, whereas the high prior knowledge students' understanding did not significantly change. In an analysis of their verbalizations, low prior knowledge students regulated their learning by relying on their partners for cognitive and other regulatory support whereas the high prior knowledge students spent most of their time regulating their own learning or providing external support for their lower prior knowledge peer. The results of this naturalistic study can potentially be used to inform educational practice by highlighting scaffolds that may foster self-regulated learning in a CBLE-mediated science inquiry context.

The aim of this study was to examine the effects of Career Information System (CIS) on ninth-grade student’s vocational skills self-efficacy, outcome expectations, work hope, and career decision-making difficulties. CIS is a computer-based career intervention designed to help users become more knowledgeable about themselves and occupational options with career planning support. At the midpoint of fall semester, intervention participants ( n = 194) were assessed before and after a CIS intervention administered during their health class, while ninth-grade students who were not in the health class ( n = 191) served as a nonrandomized control group. Relative to control participants, intervention participants had higher work hope and lower career decision-making difficulties associated with inconsistent information and lack of information. The effects of the intervention did not vary as a function of gender or socioeconomic status. Findings contribute to the scant literature assessing the effects of computer-based career interventions for high school students.

The development of higher-order cognitive skills such as decision making is a critical component of science education. Two studies assess decisionmaking skills using common cognitive errors and evaluate the impact of computer-based laboratories on the development of these skills. The first establishes the prevalence of cognitive errors among high school students, undergraduates, and Earth Science professionals. The second examines the role of computer-aided instruction in the Earth Science domain on subsequent decision making. High school students took part in either a computer or equivalent paper-and-pencil role-playing exercise requiring students to evaluate the possible eruption of a volcano. Students who used the computer exercise made more consistent decisions than those who used the traditional paper-and-pencil exercise, suggesting that well designed computer-based laboratories can positively impact higher-order cognitive skills.
