One of the most prominent implications of the implementation of the 2013 curriculum primarily for the SD / MI level is the use of integrated thematic learning. PAI subject matter in MI / SD must refer to core competencies where basic competencies are classified into four competency aspects (spiritual, social, knowledge and skills attitudes). That is, the material of PAI MI in the MI 2013 curriculum is expanded, by implementing integrated thematic learning implementation steps which include three main components, namely preliminary activities, core activities, and closing activities. The purpose of this study is to provide an analysis of the meaning, function, purpose and use of the stages of implementation of Integrated Islamic Education Material Development for MI / SD and the implementation of the steps for implementing Integrated Islamic Education Material Product learning for MI / SD which includes three main components. In this study the authors used data collection methods with documentation methods, as in the data collection techniques in library research (library research).

Abstract The aim was to, in an oral health promoting setting in low socioeconomic areas, implement a method aiming at improving quality of work by assessing both formative and summative results. The overall aim is to decrease health inequity. Methods Five teams of dental hygienists (n = 5) and dental nurses (n = 3), who operated in socioeconomic low-status areas, participated. The teams were performing health promoting activities on arenas as for example family-centrals. These teams were introduced on how to report health promoting activities according to the Health Equilibrium Methodology (HEM), which is based on Social Cognitive Theory. Following questions were put and answered in every report: Which health determinants were targeted? Did any person seem to perceive him-/herself excluded? Did anything unexpected happen? What to think about next time? Quantitative data were also documented: Almost six-hundred individuals were included in a total of 36 reports. Of these 50% were adults/parents and the rest children, most of them between 1-6 years old. The reports were written directly into a database after every activity and then processed by a facilitator and later discussed with the teams in workshops every third month. Results Analysis of the reports shows that the implementation of health promoting activities according to HEM included the following: -Identification of important health determinants. - Attention on how to get everyone involved and if anything unexpected happened. - Suggestions for change for the next time. Throughout the workshops the team-members exchanged experiences. Conclusions The HEM-method facilitates depicting and discussing the process of health promotion with focus on health equity. Thereby the method has a potential to support development of high-quality health-promoting activities in populations with low socioeconomic status. It may also lead to a better professional self-confidence.

This paper is an innovative concept in the field of learning, especially Indonesian in elementary schools. The Shuttle Flow Model is an invention, the result of contemplating experiences during and after teaching, observing, and training teachers in learning practices. The existence of a ‘shuttling’ movement between values and competencies during learning and prioritizing the elements of connectedness, wholeness, and beingness are the main features of this model. The purpose of this model is to help teachers teach Indonesian in an integrative-holistic manner as well as a solution to teacher constraints in integrative learning in primary schools. This model displays the flexibility in integrating the four aspects of language skills with the core competencies in the 2013 Curriculum which flow back and forth in the direction formed by the flow of competencies. This direction shows the relationship between aspects of language skills from and to core competencies. That is why it is called the Shuttle Flow Modle or the Shuttle Flow Model. The presence of this model is so important to guide teachers in developing the self-potential of students holistically. By using this model, teachers will never run out of material in teaching, they can even find out what aspects and competencies the students are weak in. There are five strengths of this model and four weaknesses. Strengths are intensified to minimize weaknesses. It is recommended that this learning model be an innovative choice in learning in elementary schools.
