AbstractStandard definitions posit the sign as a discrete entity in relation with other signs and standing for an object (either physical or psychological). Thus the sign has two roles, as prompt and as substitutive representation. The latter raises difficult questions about the relationship of the semiotic to the non-semiotic or pre-semiotic, which can be resolved logically (as in Peirce) or rejected as unanswerable (as in Saussure), but which can never be satisfactorily resolved empirically as the phenomenal cannot be divorced from the semiotic. This impasse can be resolved if we drop the assumption that the sign is essentially substitutive. The assumption of discrete entities, at either the phenomenal or the noumenal levels, is a function of discredited substance metaphysics. On a process metaphysical account, the reality of the sign is not attached to the discreteness of any pre-existing entity. The sign remains as prompt and as relational but not (other than sometimes with respect to other signs) substitutive. Rather than defined as standing for an object, the sign can now be regarded much more simply as a feature of an event. This conception of the sign is explored in terms of its implications for teaching and learning.

Contextual Teaching and Learning Approach (CTL) is one form of approach that can be said to be capable and very suitable to be a model of appropriate learning when applying the form of material in the classroom. Learning the form of CTL is closely related to the context, atmosphere or circumstances that can be interpreted also as learning related to a particular atmosphere. Talking about the atmosphere has to do with the use of the time form also known as tense. A little interesting about the Simple Future Tense that is raised to the core of learning because of this Tense became one of the important parts in the use of Grammar on learning English where we can express or declare actions in the future. This form uses the word 'will' and 'shall' (short form:’ll) plus infinitive. Besides using the form of 'going to' to be able to declare the time to come and the intention of the speaker to do something, for example I'm going to stop smoking '. CTL's role can make learning more effective and even create a fun and non-boring atmosphere, providing experiences that are closely related to the real world of learners and using a variety of learning resources; and therefore the method on CTL can provide understanding, development of science, the develop of knowledge and contextual understanding of learners about the relationship of subjects with what found learners in everyday life.Keywords : CTL, BE GOING TO vs WILL

Effort has been done to optimize machine learning algorithms by applying relevant knowledges in data fields in recommendation systems. Ways are explored to discover the relationship of features independently, making the model more effective and robust. A new model, DSSMFM is proposed in this paper which combines user and item features interactions to improve the performance of recommendation systems. In this model, data are divided into user features and item features represented by one-hot vectors. The pre-training for the model is proceeded through FM, and implicit vectors are obtained for both user and item features. The implicit vectors are used as the input of DSSM, and the training of the DSSM part of the model will maximize the cosine distances of the user attributes vectors and the item attributes vectors. According to the experimental results on dataset of ICME 2019 Short Video Understanding and Recommendation Challenge, the model shows improvements on some results of the baselines.

Penelitian ini berjudul aplikasi keterampilan metakognitif dalam pembelajaran ekosistem di MAN Rukoh, pada hakekatnya penelitian ini tentang keterampilan metakognitif pada siswa di MAN Rukoh, yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh keterampilan metakognitif terhadap hasil belajar kognitif siswa kelas X MAN Rukoh serta untuk mengetahui hubungan antara keterampilan metakognitif dengan hasil belajar kognitif siswa kelas X MAN Rukoh. Metode yang digunakan adalah pra-eksperimental dengan jumlah sampel 23 orang siswa. Rata-rata hasil belajar siswa setelah Proses Belajar Mengajar (PBM) 71, rata-rata keterampilan metakognitif siswa adalah 27. Analisis data yang digunakan untuk mengetahui hubungan keterampilan metakognitif dengan hasil belajar adalah uji korelasi product moment pada taraf signifikan 0,05. Korelasi antara keterampilan metakognitif dan hasil belajar kognitif diperoleh rhitung = 0.669, sedangkan rtabel = 0,413, dimana r hitung lebih besar dari pada r tabel yang berarti Ha diterima sedangkan Ho ditolah. Hubungan antara keterampilan metakognitif dengan hasil belajar diperoleh 0,669 yang berarti memiliki hubungan yang cukup diantara kedua variabel tersebut. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah Keterampilan metakognitif mempengaruhi hasil belajar kognitif siswa kelas X-4 MAN Rukoh, dan ada hubungan positif antara keterampilan metakognitif dengan hasil belajar. Kata Kunci: Aplikasi, Keterampilan Metakognitif dan Pembelajaran Ekosistem The study is entitled the application of metacognitive skills in learning ecosystem in MAN Rukoh. This research has two aims, namelty to determine the effect of metacognitive skills on cognitive learning outcomes of students Class X MAN Rukoh and to investigate the relationship between metacognitive skills and cognitive learning outcomes of students Class X MAN Rukoh. The method used is pre-experimenta. The samples were 23 students. The average of students’ learning outcomes after Teaching and Learning (PBM) was 71, the average of students metacognitive skills was 27. The product moment correlation was used to analyze the data of the relationship of metacognitive skills to learning outcomes at the significance level of 0.05. The correlation between metacognitive skills and cognitive learning outcomes obtained rcounting = 0.669, while rtable = 0.413, where r-count is higher than the r-table meaning while Ha was accepted and Ho was rejected. The relationship between metacognitive skills to the learning outcomes obtained 0.669 which means having a sufficient relationship between the two variables. The conclusion of this study is the metacognitive skills affect cognitive achievement grade 4 X-MAN Rukoh, and there is a positive relationship between metacognitive skills to learning outcomes. Keywords: Application, Metacognitive Skills and Learning Ecosystems

In this paper we present an evaluation of an App for mobile devices, ‘Roteiro dos Descobrimentos’, as an educational digital resource for primary school students. The study involved the participation of 131 students and eight teachers. Data were collected from participant observation, students’ questionnaires and interviews to students and teachers. According to students, they learned new things, related with the topics explored, in an easy and funny way. Students also emphasized as positive aspects the fact that they had to face different challenges and the need to mobilize their knowledge to solve them. Teachers referred that students showed great interest and enthusiasm during the activities. As main gains, teachers stressed that the application fosters the relationship of students with the city, facilitates collaboration, and promotes students’ autonomy. In resume, it seems that the playful and interactive dimension of the App promoted the development of important skills such as the ability to interact with the environment, collaborative work, autonomy, and reading and interpretation skills. As a conclusion, there is a great receptivity to integrate mobile technologies in the teaching and learning process, but the role of the teacher can’t be dismissed, as a mediator and educator.
