The article deals with Nene College's involvement in projects concerned with Gifted Children. This involvement stems from Dr Eric Ogilvie's interest in the subject and it is manifested in four areas: the production of materials for Gifted Children; In-Service work with teachers; a unique Saturday Club; and various enrichment activities. The unit produces packages of independent learning materials. One package, which has been widely sold, deals with ‘The Middle Ages’ and enables the pupil to work on his own. A new package on archaeology is now being produced. The In-Service courses attempt to help teachers deal with Gifted Children in mixed ability classes. Identification, teaching strategies, the development of individual learning material and parent/child relationships are dealt with. The Saturday Club is a unique project which meets fortnightly. There are no entrance qualifications as the activities perform this function. A wide range of subjects and activities have been used. The Unit is also involved in various enrichment activities. A poetry day which resulted in a well-produced anthology was one successful session. Finally, the College has a commitment to Gifted Children and hopes to continue to work effectively.

In a current situation of society development, each person should have life-long learning skills, which allow him to be flexible, autonomous, able to adapt to different scenarios of todays unstable reality. These skills can be referred to the category of soft skills, the development of which give the students the opportunity to organize their learning process effectively, and it will also help in forming students individual learning style. Life-long learning skills formed at the university can also be considered as skills oriented to the prospect of further personal and professional development perspective life-long learning skills. Thus, the purpose of this study is to find mechanisms of the development of students life-long learning skills that also help in forming their individual learning style. Using the methods of theoretical, structural-content and comparative analysis, as well as the synthesis of ideas, it was possible to find out that life-long learning skills belong to the category of soft methodological skills, the development mechanism of which is the strategies of independent learning. Moreover, studying the relationship between such concepts as life-long learning skills, universal competencies, individual learning style showed that the development of soft methodological skills of life-long education is the basis for the formation of students individual learning style. As part of the study, it was developed a methodology for teaching students cognitive and metacognitive strategies for independent learning in a foreign language class while working on listening. As the expected results of the application of this methodology, it is assumed that having mastered the strategies and techniques of independent learning, students will be able to deal with the learning material better, which in turn will help to master the competences more successfully, to increase learning motivation and to form students subjective position. As a prospect for further research, we see the development and testing of technology for teaching students the skills of life-long education, with a detailed description of the stages and guidelines for students and teachers.

Combinatorics can loosely be described as the branch of mathematics concerned with selecting, arranging, constructing, classifying, and counting or listing things. ‘What is combinatorics?’ explains that the subject can be dated back some 3000 years to ancient China and India. For many years, especially throughout the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, it consisted mainly of problems involving the permutations and combinations of certain objects, but over the succeeding centuries the range of combinatorial activity has broadened greatly. Combinatorics now includes a wide range of topics such as the geometry of tilings and polyhedra, the theory of graphs, magic squares and latin squares, block designs and finite projective planes, and partitions of numbers.

This study aims to describe the implementation and barriers of Indonesian language learning for autistic children at the SLB Mitra Ananda Colomadu. This research is a qualitative descriptive study where the subjects were two class teachers and four grade VII autistic students at SLB Mitra Ananda. Data is collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results showed that the implementation of Indonesian language learning at the Ananda Colomadu Partner Autism SLB used the ABA and Individual Learning Program (PPI) methods tailored to the students' abilities. The 2013 curriculum is difficult to implement because the limited Indonesian language learning materials did not meet the child's conditions. Various efforts have been made by the teacher to overcome these obstacles: using PPI, creating independent learning media, and learning the latest methods that are applicable to learn Indonesian for autistic children.[Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan pelaksanaan dan hambatan pembelajaran Bahasa Indonesia untuk anak autis di SLB Autis Mitra Ananda Colomadu.

Oxford Studies in Ancient Philosophy provides, twice each year, a collection of the best current work in the field of ancient philosophy. Each volume features original essays that contribute to an understanding of a wide range of themes and problems in all periods of ancient Greek and Roman philosophy, from the beginnings to the threshold of the middle ages. From its first volume in 1983, OSAP has been a highly influential venue for work in the field, and has often featured essays of substantial length as well as critical essays on books of distinctive importance. Volume LIX contains an examination of: Aristotle’s reception of Empedocles’ ideas about harmonia and love in developing his own conception of the soul; Plato’s portrayal of the disembodied soul and how it can be the subject of bodily desires; how the philosopher rulers in Plato’s Republic are motivated to rule through bonds of philia to their fellow citizens; how Aristotle, while denying that there are magnitudes that are actually infinite, allows that there are infinitely many things; Aristotle’s distinction between the many senses of being in MetaphysicsΔ‎. 7 and the relation between existence and predication; and the explanation of Carneades’ reasons for not writing philosophical works in Philodemus’ Index Academicorum (PHerc. 1021).

Mata pelajaran Sosiologi dipandang oleh sejumlah siswa sebagai mata pelajaran yang membosankan. Muatan materi sosiologi yang menyajikan banyak teori dan konsep seperti mengandung konsekuensi kepada siswa untuk menuntut semuanya dihafal secara baik. Model pembelajaran yang membosankan semakin membuat mata pelajaran ini kurang diminati oleh siswa. Strategi inovatif sudah dilakukan, namun pada prakteknya operasionalisasi model pembelajaran itu kurang efektif sehingga guru banyak yang kembali menggunakan model pembelajaran konvensional. Artikel ini ditulis untuk menyampaikan model pembelajaran Sosiologi bagi siswa Sekolah Menengah Atas (SMA) berdasarkan pengalaman saya mengajar. Menurut pengalaman saya, strategi yang bisa digunakan untuk mengatasi masalah pembelajaran sosiologi antara lain adalah mengajukan pertanyaan kritis, eksplorasi artikel dan gambar/foto, nonton film, penelitian sederhana, dan membuat catatan harian. Melalui startegi ini, pembelajaran yang bersifat konstruktivisme lebih mudah dioperasional. Cara ini lebih dapat memberikan kesempatan kepada siswa untuk membangun pembelajaran secara mandiri dan menjadikan siswa lebih dekat memahami kenyataan sosial sebagai bagian dari kehidupannya sekaligus sebagai materi pembelajaran sosiologi. Students often regard Sociology as a boring subject. The subject presents many sociological theories and concepts students to memorize. Boring method of teaching further makes the course less attractive to students. Innovative strategy have been used, but in practice the method is not effective and teachers return to conventional models. This article is written based on the author’s experience in teaching Sociology among high school students. Based on my experience, strategies that can be used to create innovative learning include asking critical questions, exploring articles and pictures / photos, analyzing movies, doing simple research, and keeping a diary. Through this strategy, constructivist learning is much easier to run. This method is better able to provide the opportunity for students to develop independent learning and make students more intensively to understand social reality as a part of his life as well as the learning materials of sociology.
