AbstractLearning mathematics is very important for students, based on the learning objectives of mathematics in primary to secondary education, namely to prepare students to always develop logically, rationally, critically, accurately, honestly, efficiently and effectively in the world of education. The media can increase and direct the attention of students so that it can lead to learning motivation, more direct interaction between students and their environment and the ability of students to learn on their own according to their abilities. Therefore we need a learning media that can visualize objects from cartesian coordinate material. One such visual media is Power Point which can be used to visualize work objects from mathematics. This study aims to produce learning media that can be understood by students and to determine student interest in learning by using a microscope-based powerpoint learning media on cartesian coordinate material. The method used in research is research and development and the collection technique used is direct observation. The results of trials conducted, Microsoft PowerPoint based learning media were able to attract student interest in learning.Keywords: Microsoft Powerpoint, cartesian coordinate.

This paper intends to review efforts to create a conducive and effective school environment more intensively so that learning objectives become more quality can be achieved. The purpose of making this paper is to be able to give insight to those who take part in the world of education to increasingly understand the following: the problem of the concept of the school environment and the concept of an effective school environment. It is known that to create an effective school environment there needs to be collaboration and compatibility between the conditions of the learning environment, both the physical and social environment, with the learning participants in this case students and teachers. Both learning environments need to be maximized in order to create an effective school environment. At the level of praxis, furthermore, it is hoped that education personnel can apply an understanding of the concept of the school environment and the concept of an effective school environment in organizing educational and schooling activities.

We set out to develop an anatomy and physiology (A&P) curriculum with a content that was relevant and well rationalized. To do this, we developed a benchmarks curriculum process that helps us to determine what our students need to learn in A&P and then to make sure there is alignment between those learning objectives and what we teach and how we assess our students. Using the benchmarks process, we first set the broad skill and content goals of the course. We then prioritize the topic areas to be covered, allocating the course time accordingly, and declare the learning objectives for each topic. To clarify each learning objective, a set of benchmark statements are written that specify in operational terms what is required to demonstrate mastery. After the benchmarks are written, we assemble the learning activities that help students achieve them and write assessment items to evaluate achievement. We have implemented the curriculum in a relational database that allows us to specify the numerous links that exist between its different elements. In the future, the benchmarks model will be used for ongoing A&P curriculum development with geographically distributed contributors accessing it via the World Wide Web. This mechanism will allow for the continuing evolution of the A&P curriculum.

This paper responds to the need for interdisciplinary approaches to fourth level education that better reflect the complexity of the world in which we work and conduct research. We discuss this need in technology-enabled healthcare, Connected Health. We propose a model for fourth level interdisciplinary education and discuss its trial application in two European structured PhD programmes in the Connected Health research arena. We suggest broader learning objectives for the emerging fourth level graduate, methods for incorporating multiple disciplinary inputs and perspectives into deep disciplinary PhD training, intersectoral approaches to ensure employability and impact, and innovative training methods and structures to facilitate interdisciplinary and intersectoral learning. We give some examples of innovative training modules used within the pilot programmes. Finally we discuss six core elements of a truly interdisciplinary programme at fourth level - exposure to different environments, joint supervision, a genuine role for the non academic sector, career development training and planning, the development of a sustainable network beyond the life of the programme, and data openess.

In the 4.0 revolution era, various skills are needed, one of which is innovation and learning skills known as 4C. The use of learning media in the learning process can help students improve understanding to conclude information and the learning process becomes more interesting when using the right media. Biology learning is also supported by understanding material through learning media, one of which is LKPD because it requires students to understand the material and students will be motivated because at the end of learning students will find understanding of concepts so that learning objectives will be achieved. Based on the questionnaire that has been given to students of class XI Mathematics and Natural Sciences which consists of 6 classes via google form, students are very interested in using LKPD because it makes it easier for students to understand the material that has been given and as many as 96% of students consider that the use of LKPD is very important. in the learning process. The advantage of the LKPD is that it will have a positive impact on the understanding of students and increase the value after using the LKPD.
