ResumoA poluição ambiental por resíduos sólidos constitui uma problemática ambiental na atualidade, necessitando de uma gestão adequada que estimule a criação de estratégias sustentáveis para minimizar esses impactos, como a inserção da coleta seletiva nos diversos espaços urbanos e na escola. O estudo teve como objetivo avaliar o comportamento pró-ambiental de educandos do Ensino Médio público de Patos, Paraíba, quanto aos resíduos sólidos. Participaram da pesquisa um total de 352 alunos do Ensino Médio de duas escolas. Os dados foram obtidos por meio da aplicação de um questionário composto por 25 afirmativas no modelo da escala de Likert, cujos níveis de resposta variavam de 1 (concordo totalmente) a 5 (discordo totalmente) e mais três questões discursivas. Os resultados reportaram que os alunos consideram os resíduos sólidos como um grande problema ambiental, considerando que a reciclagem representa uma alternativa para o Desenvolvimento Sustentável. Estes afirmaram que a coleta seletiva deve ser implantada nas cidades brasileiras visando reduzir o volume de resíduos sólidos destinados aos lixões. Além disso, os alunos relataram que a Educação Ambiental deve estar inserida no ambiente escolar tanto na esfera pública quanto privada. As ações de Educação Ambiental desenvolvidas dentro do contexto escolar podem sensibilizar os alunos sobre a importância do uso consciente e descarte adequado dos resíduos sólidos, contribuindo para a sustentabilidade ambiental. Palavras-chave: Educação Ambiental. Escola. Lixo. AbstractEnvironmental pollution by solid waste is currently an environmental issue, requiring adequate management that encourages the creation of sustainable strategies to minimize these impacts, such as the insertion of selective collection in various urban spaces and at school. The objective of this study was to evaluate the pro-environmental behavior of public high school students in Patos, Paraíba, regarding solid waste. A total of 352 high school students from two schools participated in the study. The data were obtained through the application of a questionnaire composed of 25 affirmations in the model of the Likert scale whose levels of response varied from 1 (totally agree) to 5 (totally disagree) and three other discursive questions. The results reported that students consider solid waste as a major environmental problem, considering that recycling represents an alternative to Sustainable Development. These confirmed that selective collection should be implanted in Brazilian cities to reduce the volume of solid waste destined to dumps. In addition, students reported that Environmental Education should be embedded in the school environment in both the public and private spheres. The Environmental Education actions developed within the school context can raise the students' awareness regarding the importance of the conscious use and proper disposal of solid waste, contributing to environmental sustainability.

Separation Behavior

To achieve substantial and sustainable levels of separation of municipal solid waste (MSW), it is essential to engage young people as they are important drivers of change and will have a major influence on the future of the world. This study aimed to understand Chinese high school students’ intention toward the separation of solid waste on campus (SSWC). The study has used the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) as its theoretical framework, and further incorporates two additional constructs (environmental education and environmental knowledge) to explain the separation of solid waste (SSW) behavior of 562 high school students. The results indicate that environmental education is essential to ensure that students have required knowledge and positive attitudes toward SSWC. Knowledge was the best predictor of high school students’ separation behavior. Moreover, a lack of subjective norm from the important people could prevent students from participating in this process, regardless of their positive attitudes. The implications for policy and scope for further research are discussed.

Abstract Nearly 1,000 officer-involved killings occur each year in the United States. This article documents the large, racially disparate effects of these events on the educational and psychological well-being of Los Angeles public high school students. Exploiting hyperlocal variation in how close students live to a killing, I find that exposure to police violence leads to persistent decreases in GPA, increased incidence of emotional disturbance, and lower rates of high school completion and college enrollment. These effects are driven entirely by black and Hispanic students in response to police killings of other minorities and are largest for incidents involving unarmed individuals.

The Way

<p>Portfolio learning has been utilised in education for many years and a natural development in today's digital environment has been the move from paper to electronic portfolios (e-portfolios). The development of e-portfolios in New Zealand has also been driven by two forces- the emerging view that e-portfolios can be an effective way to support constructivist approaches to learning and help develop students into 'lifelong learners' ; and the beliefs about today's digital environment and the way in which students should and do operate within this. In many ways, e-portfolio research is a relatively young field of study and much of the research that has been conducted has occurred in the tertiary environment and related to the perceptions of the instructor or technologist. In an attempt to add depth to current e-portfolio research, this study made use of a mixed-methods, descriptive case study approach in order to focus on the perceptions of a group of high school students and the way in which they experienced using the e-portfolio application MyPortfolio for the first time. Key findings of this study focus on the way in which students experienced using MyPortfolio and the fact that although it is often claimed that e-portfolio tools can be effective in helping developing reflective thinking in students, overall, the students in this study predominately saw MyPortfolio as a tool to organise and process knowledge rather than something that could help them to engage in 'deep learning'. The experiences and perceptions of the students in this study also challenged ideas about how much students want to use ICT within the school environment and this study suggests that increased use of ICT can lead to students missing the social interaction that usually occurs within the classroom. In a similar vein, the students in this study also challenged the idea of the 'digital native' and their experiences suggest that, as with any area of learning, students' skills with using ICT varied greatly. The way that the students in this study made use of MyPortfolio also demonstrates the fact that although e-portfolio tools such as MyPortfolio offer students the opportunity to engage in reflective learning, they do not necessarily undertake this naturally. Finally, the findings of this study highlight the role of the teacher in supporting effective use of ICT for learning.</p>

Abstract: A value and character based curriculum is the core of the curriculum from time to time which is designed to answer the challenges of the times. In this paper, the author wants to examine the application of value-based and character-based curriculum in Christian Religious Education learning to the spiritual intelligence of public high school students in Tana Toraja. This is considered important because in the implementation of a value-based and character-based curriculum it has less impact on the spiritual intelligence of state high school students in Tana Toraja. The method used in this paper is qualitative research with descriptive analysis method. This study concludes that the curriculum developed in Christian religious education learning is still general in nature, which is designed in general in a universal context which is then developed according to a particular context. The curriculum in the context of Christianity in learning values and character in Christian education is only one source, namely from the Bible and applies to everyone in all places, as for the value in character building in relation to this spiritual intelligence, namely the value of love which is the main command of God, readiness to hear. and slow to speak, the value of holiness is not defiling oneself with various temptations and the values of the fruit of the Holy Spirit, namely love, joy, peace, patience, generosity, kindness, loyalty, gentleness and self-control.Keywords: values, character, spiritual intelligence  Abstrak: Kurikulum berbasis nilai dan karakter adalah inti dari dari kurikulum dari masa ke masa yang di desain untuk menjawab tantangan jaman.

The Government

Although the government provides free education, poverty is one of Filipino students' most common challenges in their pursuit of basic education. To overcome financial constraints and to be self-sufficient while studying, high school students choose to find errands. In Toledo City, Cebu, Philippines, thirty-one public high school students working part-time were studied to find answers if there was a link between time management, self-efficacy, and academic performance, specifically, assessing the respondents' math performance, using the adopted survey questionnaire. The results revealed that they performed satisfactorily in math while practicing moderate time management and having moderate self-efficacy in the subject. There was no significant relationship between time management and math performance; however, self-efficacy and math performance had a significant weak positive correlation. As a result, teachers are encouraged to create programs that boost students' self-efficacy and time management abilities. It is strongly suggested that time management skills are integrated into the subjects to form and promote students' positive reactions. From the theoretical point of view, once the competencies have been learned and practiced, students are expected to manage, strive for, and fulfill their life objectives more effectively.
