Teachers play a great role in how students understand and learn the concepts taught in class. Studies show that teachers reflect their already-existing conceptual constructs and their problem-solving processes on students. This is also true of the misconceptions reflected in chemistry classes, especially when abstract concepts are being taught. The purpose of this study is to see the degree of understanding of chemistry teachers concerning the chemical reaction rate concept. A case study research method was used in the study whose sample consisted of 70 chemistry teachers from forty different cities in Turkey. The data were collected through a chemical reaction rate comprehension test comprising five open-ended questions. The results have indicated that teachers have some misconceptions concerning chemical reaction rate.

Abstract In this paper we describe and evaluate a study on the use of concepts in organic chemistry while solving tasks that are designed after the concept of school-related content knowledge (SRCK). The study was designed as a mixed methods study and conducted at a German university for the content of “organic chemistry”. As the results of this study show, the students rate the tasks and the use of anchoring concepts as for example “bonds” or “structure and function” as relevant for their future profession as a chemistry teacher. They therefore propose that concepts should be an integral part of their university studies as they find it lacking at the moment. Concepts can also be seen as an opportunity to build a bridge between school knowledge and university knowledge.

AbstrakMatematika memiliki peranan penting dalam kehidupan. Namun, dalam praktik pembelajarannya sebagian siswa masih menganggap matematika sebagai mata pelajaran yang sulit. Bukti-bukti di lapangan menunjukkan bahwa hasil belajar geometri masih rendah. Kesulitan pada materi geometri dapat berdampak pada kesulitan-kesulitan bagian lain dalam materi geometri itu sendiri, karena banyak pokok bahasan dalam geometri yang saling berhubungan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui faktor penyebab kesulitan siswa dalam proses pemecahan masalah geometri berdasarkan tahapan berpikir Van Hiele serta untuk melihat ketercapaian siswa dalam pemahaman geometri berdasarkan tahapan berpikir geometri Van Hiele. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode penelitian kualitatif dengan jenis penelitian studi kasus. Subjek penelitian yang diambil sebanyak 6 siswa dari kelas VII C SMP Negeri 6 Garut. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ketercapaian siswa pada proses pemecahan masalah geometri berdasarkan tahapan berpikir Van Hiele paling banyak adalah pada tahap 0 (visualisasi). Hal ini ditunjukkan dengan tingginya persentase pencapaian siswa pada tahap visualisasi yaitu sebanyak 96,87 %. Ketercapaian tahapan berpikir Van Hiele yang paling baik dicapai sebesar 3,13% pada tahap 1 (Analisis). Untuk tahap 2 (deduksi informal) dan tahap 3 (deduksi) belum ada siswa yang mampu mencapai tahapan tersebut. Faktor yang menjadi penyebab kesulitan siswa dalam materi segiempat disebabkan karena beberapa hal, yaitu pemahaman mengenai konsep dan sifat-sifat segiempat yang kurang, pemahaman sebelumnya mengenai materi bangun datar segiempat yang masih kurang kuat, kurangnya keterampilan menggunakan ide-ide geometri dalam memecahkan masalah matematika yang berkaitan dengan bangun segiempat, serta kondisi kelas yang kurang kondusif untuk belajar.Kata Kunci: Kesulitan siswa pada geometri, tahapan berpikir Van Hiele, Kualitatif, Studi Kasus.AbstractMathematics has an important role in life. However, in the practice of learning some students still regard mathematics as a difficult subject. The evidence in the field shows that the geometry learning result is still low. Difficulties in geometrical matter can affect the difficulties of other parts of the material itself, since many of the subjects in the geometry are interconnected. This study aims to determine the factors causing student difficulties in the process of solving geometry problems based on the stages of thinking Van Hiele and to see students' achievement in understanding geometry based on the stages of thinking geometry Van Hiele. The research method used is qualitative research method with case study research type. Research subjects taken as many as 6 students from class VII C SMP Negeri 6 Garut. The results showed that students' achievement in the process of solving geometry problems based on the stage of thinking Van Hiele at most is at stage 0 (visualization). This is indicated by the high percentage of student achievement in the visualization stage that is as much as 96.87%. The achievement of the best stage of Van Hiele thinking was achieved at 3.13% in stage 1 (Analysis). For stage 2 (informal deduction) and stage 3 (deduction) no students have been able to reach that stage. Factors that cause student difficulties in rectangular material caused by several things, namely the understanding of the concept and the characteristics of the rectangle is lacking, previous understanding of the material wake rectangular flat that is still less strong, the lack of skills to use geometric ideas in solving math problems Relating to wake up quadrilateral, as well as class conditions that are less conducive to learning.Keyword: Student difficulties on geometry, Van Hiele thinking stages, Qualitative, Case Studies.

Use Of Social Media

Use of social media creates positive or negative impacts on adolescents. There are a number of factors enabling adolescents to make use of social media positively. One of the factors studied in this research is the adolescent worldview. The adolescent worldview greatly determines the way she behaves and her attitude towards social media. The result of this research shows that adolescent worldview may release and enables her to reject negative impacts of social media, particularly from modern cultural -isms as relativism, individualism, emotionalism, presentism (present-time ism), materialism, autonomy, victimism, and turn it into a positive impact on herself. Worldviews may be differentiated based on three categories namely religion, spirituality and secularity. This research is conducted by explorative-qualitative approach, using case study research method. Data collection was conducted by in-depth interview with late adolescents.

The study explores the impact of participatory systems on information quality using Abu Dhabi as a case study. Participatory systems are used for deciding social change to affect residents and citizens positively. The case study research method was used to examine information quality in a participatory system. Content of the participatory system was assessed for information quality and it was found to support theoretical claims that Abu Dhabi residents and citizens participate in building sustainable competition using participatory systems. The limitations of the study are found in its focus on a single application, the app CityGuard. Through examining the use of CityGuard, specific issues were recognized which allowed the definition of steps on how its use could impact social change more positively. This paper presents findings from the use of CityGuard as a public participatory tool.
