ABSTRAKAik Berik merupakan daerah tujuan wisata yang berada dalam kawasan Geopark Rinjani Lombok. Di daerah ini terdapat situs geologi yang dapat digunakan sebagai sarana pendidikan melalui kegiatan wisata pendidikan bagi anak-anak sekolah, namun perlu dilakukan kajian daya dukung lingkungan agar kegiatan tersebut tidak menyebabkan gangguan pada ekosistem dan kenyamanan para siswa dalam melakukan aktivitas juga dapat dipertahankan. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui nilai daya dukung lingkungan obyek wisata Aik Berik sehingga dapat digunakan untuk merencanakan/menentukan waktu yang tepat dalam melaksanakan kegiatan wisata pendidikan. Metode yang digunakan adalah perhitungan berdasarkan rumus daya dukung lingkungan yang dimodifikasi, yaitu Daya Dukung Fisik (PCC), Daya Dukung Riil (RCC) dan Daya Dukung Efektif (ECC). Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui observasi/survei lapangan, studi literatur, dan wawancara. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Daerah Aik Berik mempuyai nilai daya dukung fisik (PCC) 18.665 orang/hari dan daya dukung Riil (RCC) 3.863 orang/hari. Pada hari minggu daya dukung riil belum terlewati,  sekitar 19,9% dari RCC atau 767 orang/hari. Pelaksanaan wisata pendidikan dapat dilakukan pada hari biasa (Senin-Jumat) dengan cara praktikum bersama atau dengan memanfaatkan alokasi waktu KBM yang dijadwalkan pada akhir sesi KBM.Kata kunci: Geopark Rinjani Lombok, Wisata Pendidikan, Daya Dukung Lingkungan ABSTRACTAik Berik is a tourist destination within Geopark Rinjani Lombok. In this area there is a geological site that can be used as an education mean through educational tours for school children, but it is necessary to study environment carrying capacity so that these activities do not cause disturbance to the ecosystem as well as maintaining students activity comfort. The aim of this study was to determine Aik Berik carrying capacity that can be used to determine the best times in conducting educational tours. The method used based on modified environment carrying capacity formula calculation, the Physical Carrying Capacity (PCC),  Real Carrying Capacity (RCC) and Effective Carrying Capacity (ECC). Data collected through observation/field surveys, literature, and interviews. The results showed that Aik Berik area  has value of physical carrying capacity (PCC) 18.665 person/day and the Real carrying capacity (RCC) 3,863 person/day. On Sunday the real carrying capacity has not been reached, approximately 19.9% of RCC or 767 person/day. Implementation of the educational tour can be done on a weekday (Monday-Friday) by internship activities together or by allocating scheduled time in teaching and learning activities.Keywords:  Geopark Rinjani Lombok,  Educational Tourism, Carrying CapacityCara sitasi: Hardoyo  ,D., Muhammad, F., dan Taruna, T.

Using data from the Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS; 2013), this article explores teachers’ needs, support, and barriers in their professional development. The research finds that Australian teachers expressed greater needs in information and communication technology (ICT) use and new technology training for teaching, while Shanghai teachers required more assistance to satisfy students’ individual learning and pedagogical competencies. More than 80% of Australian and Shanghai teachers received scheduled time to support their participation in professional development, whereas less than 20% of Australian and Shanghai teachers received monetary or nonmonetary support. In terms of barriers, Australian and Shanghai teachers reported two significant barriers that conflicted with their participation in professional development: “working schedule” and “a lack of incentives to take part.” This article reveals implications of the study in the design of an effective professional development program for Australian and Shanghai teachers and ends with discussing the limitations of the research and future research directions.

The present environment is characterized for the uncertainty and crisis, and the existence of threats and dangers in the society and in the tourist sector for the survival of companies in the market. In addition, apart from changes in the economic situation, changes in demand occur in terms of new wants and needs, obliging suppliers to adapt to them in order to survive in times of a highly competitive environment and a difficult economic situation, when the key is not just attracting visitors, but also satisfying them in order to gain their loyalty. So the real threat is the lack of response to changing situations. The Spanish tourist sector is pressured by various threats such as the need to improve the competitiveness of destinations and products, make the industry more professional, encourage new forms of marketing and promotion, or change the sales model. Therefore, businesses must adapt to these changes and respond to them, strengthen the confidence of customers, who seek to obtain the optimum value for money. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the tourism activity in the town of Cuenca in the period 2005 to 2009, focusing the analysis on how supply changed to adapt to the requirements of demand. The aim being to evaluate their and correct errors, and design the actions of the future. That is to say, create an appropriate market strategy to promote the tourism product and ensure the idea of a consolidated tourist destination.

Difficult Part

In driving sustainable tourism, the concept of carrying capacity in tourism needs to be applied. This concept of carrying capacity gives a comprehensive emphasis in the development of tourism whether in physical, social or economic aspects. If this concept is applied, it is in determining the situation in a tourist destination whether it is still in a state that can be accepted by the stakeholders in tourism, namely tourists, locals and tour operators. In this paper, emphasis is given to social carrying capacity in tourism which is one of the parts in tourism carrying capacity. This social capacity is the most difficult part to examine because it involves unequal perceptions and views from various parties. It involves interactions between tourists and tourists that cover issues of congestion and the quality of their tourism and interactions between tourists and locals or hosts that involve issues of their quality of life. Due to that, this social capacity is quite difficult to implement in some tourist areas.

The Impact

In this paper, the authors discuss creativity and the impact it might have on teaching and learning. The authors believe that imaginative play, at all ages, helps all people (children especially) create healthy environments and spaces that expand their learning. The authors contend that teaching for imagination—which asks little more than creating and trusting an ecological space that engenders it—seldom is considered a priority. Given the emphasis on creativity in the real world and the virtual digital world, the authors believe it is important to add to the body of knowledge through continued research in this field.

Introduction. Innovative teaching and learning systems involve intensification of the educational process and greater academic loads; it results in the exertion of adaptation systems in a body, especially when it comes to primary school children. Purpose of the study. Our research goal was to assess peculiarities of adaptation capabilities in primary school children who attended schools with different educational processes. Material and methods. To study peculiarities of adaptation capabilities in primary school children, we performed a clinical examination of 183 children (51.4% boys and 48.6% girls, the average age being 9.51±0.17) who attended a lyceum (group A), a school with advanced studies of physics and mathematics (Group B), and an ordinary secondary school (Group C). We also analyzed how intense educational loads were in all three educational establishments. Children’s adaptation capabilities were assessed as per functional parameters of their cardiovascular and vegetative nervous systems and catecholamines’ contents in blood. Results. The entry-level secondary schools tend to have more intense educational processes. We established that primary school children who attended a lyceum faced 1.5 times greater intellectual and sensory loads; children who attended a school with advanced studies of physics and mathematics had educational loads that were 1.3-1.4 times more monotonous than in other establishments; children who attended an ordinary school had to bear 1.8 times higher emotional loads. ⅔ primary school children had exertion of functional reserves in their cardiovascular system caused by a longer educational load duration. 36% of primary school children who attended a school with advanced studies of physics and mathematics had tension in their adaptation mechanisms caused by monotonous educational loads combined with lower noradrenalin contents in blood. Those children also ran up to 4.9 times higher risks of adaptation mechanism exertion. 48.5-56.7% of children who attended a lyceum and an ordinary school had vegetative imbalance that became apparent via activated adaptation-trophic influence promoted by the sympathetic section in the vegetative nervous systems and related to the duration of learning activities. Conclusion. Intensification of the educational process results in disorders of compensatory-adaptation mechanisms in primary school children.

ABSTRACT: At present there is very little attention regarding visual impairment, especially in school children, whereas a poor learning environment is one of the triggers for a decrease in visual acuity in children. Myopia is one of the causes of decreased visual acuity in children, while good vision is very important in the teaching and learning process. This study aims to determine the relationship of family support in maintaining eye health with visual acuity in primary school-aged children in RW 10 Desa Kramat Jegu Taman Sidoarjo. The design of this research using a cros-sectional approach. The sample in this study were 22 elementary and sixth grade elementary school children and their mothers as many as 22 pairs. Sampling by total sampling method. Data analysis using Rank Spearman statistical test with a significance level of 5% (0.05). The results showed that of the 22 respondents most (61.18%) had good family support and from 22 respondents most (63.63%) had normal visual acuity. Spearman rank correlation test results, obtained ρ = 0.032 <α = 0.05 so that H0 is rejected which means that there is a relationship between family support about maintaining eye health with visual acuity in primary school-aged children. Good family support for maintaining eye health can improve children's visual acuity. It is expected that nurses can use the results of this study as a guide in providing nursing services for patients with eye refraction disorders. Keywords: family support, visual acuity

Various medical and technological organizations are working on the development of unconventional solutions such as therapy and assistance for people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Different organizations, researchers and educators have been involved in the study and realization of virtual reality (VR) solutions to be used as therapy, training, and support for these individuals. Previous researches and experiments showed that it is possible to ameliorate the level of concentration, coordination, socialization, communication, self-awareness, and memory in school children treated with these tools. VR environments may offer a total physical involvement of the ASDs that may see the world through virtual immersion and active practice. This chapter presents a way of rethinking teaching and learning.

The case presents the situation prevailing in Loreto Day School, Sealdah, when Sister Cyril took over as the principal of the school. It details the initiatives taken by her to turn around the school. With her active interest and concern for marginalised children, the school started admitting a greater number of non - fee paying children, bringing their number to half of the total enrolled children in the school. Several programmes like providing shelter to street children and integrating them into the education system, weekly visits by school children to nearby village schools, addressing the problem of hidden child labour, programmes for platform children and training for barefoot teachers were organised along with other teaching and learning activities in the school. Pedagogic changes like activity oriented science teaching, value education, work education, and an assessment programme which took into account the effort put in by children were also initiated. Views of a cross-section of parents, some of whom had high praise for the school while some others expressed concerns about its divergent activities are also included.

This paper reviews some of the salient research into the complex issue of the impact of class size on the quality of teaching and learning. It describes the general attitude of the teaching profession towards class size and discusses some of the claims made regarding the influence of the variable on teaching and learning. Some evidence is presented to illustrate the nature of the profession's stand on the issue. It is acknowledged that the real impact of class size is much less clear than is implied by the normal assertions regarding its importance, and some of the important literature is examined to illustrate this point. From the discussion several suggestions emerge for desirable procedures in the further investigation of this area.
