One of the most frequently observed explanations in misconceptions is conceptual understanding. This research aimed to determine the senior high school students’ conceptual understanding of Newton’s laws in outer space. The researchers assumed that the research results would be rich in variation by elaborating the item questions based on the precise step of Digital Story Conceptual Change-Oriented as a learning medium.  The researchers researched State Senior High School 5 Yogyakarta. The participants of this study consisted of 91 students. The applied instruments were fifteen two-tier multiple-choice items. The researchers also used a non-test instrument, namely an interview sheet. The researchers found related misconceptions in Newton’s law in outer space during the research. It was found that 30% of students experienced misconceptions. The results are important for the learning process that through identification, teachers could use strategy to explain the materials.

В статье рассматривается важность внедрения в старших классах (9-11классы) таких дисциплин как: архитектурная грамотность, основы инженерии, компьютерный дизайн (голография), космобиология, основы космического проектирования. Авторы отмечают, что на сегодняшний день мир профессий меняется стремительно, растет спрос на разработки новых технологий, а стало быть, появлений новых профессий: архитектор умного дома, боевой медик, проектировщик подводных станций (жилья), проектировщик воздушного жилья (создание дирижабль-городов), голографическая инженерия, а также профессии связанные с разработкой космического пространства, (космобиология, планетный гид, экскурсовод по космическим спутникам и так далее). В рамках данной статьи было проведено исследование, где будущие студенты высших учебных заведений обсудили вопросы синтезирования различных профессий и выявили предметы, которые, по их мнению, должны изучаться в рамках школьной программы в отдельных профессионально ориентированных классах. В процессе исследования были выявлены общие различия по разным видам компетенций среди школьников, особенно при обучении инженерным и архитектурным дисциплинам. Практическая сторона работы заключается в возможности использования результатов для специалистов схожего профиля и области исследований. The article discusses the importance of implementation in high school (grades 9-11) such disciplines as: architectural literacy, fundamentals of engineering, computer design (holography), cosmobiology, fundamentals of space design. The authors note that today the world of professions is changing rapidly, the demand for the development of new technologies is growing, and therefore, the emergence of new professions: architect of a smart home, combat medic, designer of underwater stations (housing), designer of air housing (creating airship cities), holographic engineering, as well as professions related to the development of outer space (cosmobiology, planetary guide, guide to space satellites, and so on). Within the framework of this article, a study was conducted where future students of higher educational institutions discussed the issues of synthesizing various professions and identified subjects that, in their opinion, should be studied as part of the school curriculum in separate professionally oriented classes.

A modification of the Paired-Stimuli Parent Program (Florance, 1977) was adapted for the treatment of articulatory errors of visually handicapped children. Blind high school students served as clinical aides. A discussion of treatment methodology, and the results of administrating the program to 32 children, including a two-year follow-up evaluation to measure permanence of behavior change, is presented.

Summary: This article describes a triarchic analysis of an aptitude-treatment interaction in a college-level introductory-psychology course given to selected high-school students. Of the 326 total participants, 199 were selected to be high in analytical, creative, or practical abilities, or in all three abilities, or in none of the three abilities. The selected students were placed in a course that either well matched or did not match their pattern of analytical, creative, and practical abilities. All students were assessed for memory, analytical, creative, and practical achievement. The data showed an aptitude-treatment interaction between students' varied ability patterns and the match or mismatch of these abilities to the different instructional groups.

This study examined how social opportunity structure influences identity exploration and commitment of Albanian high school students. A total of 258 students completed a questionnaire that gauged their identity exploration and commitment in three domains: education, occupation, and family. ANOVA results indicated that, overall, students scored highest in exploration in the domain of education and in commitment in the domain of family. Students' exploration and commitment were linked to gender. Albanian female students scored higher than male students in exploration and commitment regarding education and family. Perceived work opportunities in Albania or abroad also significantly moderated participants' exploration in the domain of education and were associated with commitment in education and occupation. As one of the first studies to explore Albanian youth's identity development in relation to social opportunity structure, findings are discussed in light of furthering the field of Albanian adolescent and youth development.

Abstract. This study investigated the effects of politicians’ nonparticipatory and participatory Facebook posts on young people’s political efficacy – a key determinant of political participation. We employed an experimental design, using a sample of N = 125 high school students (15–20 years). Participants either saw a Facebook profile with no posts (control condition), nonparticipatory posts, or participatory posts. While nonparticipatory posts did not affect participants’ political efficacy, participatory posts exerted distinct effects. For those high in trait evaluations of the politician presented in the stimulus material or low in political cynicism, we found significant positive effects on external and collective efficacy. By contrast, for those low in trait evaluations or high in cynicism, we found significant negative effects on external and collective efficacy. We did not find any effects on internal efficacy. The importance of content-specific factors and individual predispositions in assessing the influence of social media use on participation is discussed.
