he use of Statistics Process Control in education is fairly new but it has been clearly seen that the method can be used in the field of student evaluation in teaching and learning processes, monitoring student grades, assessment processes in higher education, assessment of learning outcomes and others. This study will discuss the application of Process Control Statistics (SPK) to evaluate the learning process using two control diagrams of variables  and R using the Process Capability (KP) analysis, which aims to determine students' abilities in carrying out practical tests. From these problems to determine the effectiveness of the control program  and R in evaluating the learning process. From the results of the analysis it can be concluded that the application of Control Process Statistics is very possible in the evaluation of the learning process. In this context, control diagrams  and R are useful for increasing efficiency in detecting deficiencies in the evaluation of the learning process and evaluating student performance. In the process capability analysis (KP) it can be seen that the student evaluation process is still not as expected, and the learning process is considered to be uneven so that the resulting output has not reached what was expected Penggunaan Statistik Proses Kontrol dalam pendidikan memang terbilang baru tetapi  telah jelas terlihat bahwa metode tersebut dapat digunakan di bidang evaluasi siswa dalam pengajaran dan proses pembelajaran, pemantauan nilai siswa, proses penilaian dalam pendidikan tinggi, penilaian hasil pembelajaran dan lain-lain. Penelitian ini akan membahas penerapan Statistik Proses Kontrol (SPK) untuk mengevaluasi proses pembelajaran menggunakan dua digram kontrol variabel  dan R dengan menggunakan analisis Kapabilitas Proses (KP), yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui kemampuan siswa dalam melaksanakan ujian praktikum.  Dari permasalahan tersebut untuk mengetahui efektifitas digram kontrol  dan R dalam mengevaluasi proses pembelajaran.  Dari hasil analisis dapat disimpulkan bahwa penerapan Statistik Proses Kontrol sangat mungkin dilakukan dalam evaluasi proses pembelajaran. Dalam konteks ini, diagram kontrol  dan R  berguna untuk meningkatkan efisiensi dalam mendeteksi kekurangan dalam evaluasi proses pembelajaran dan evaluasi kinerja siswa. Pada analisis kapabilitas proses (KP) dapat diketahui bahwa proses evaluasi siswa masih belum sesuai dengan yang diharapkan, dan proses pembelajaran dianggap belum merata sehingga ouput yang dihasilkan belum mencapai dengan yang diharapkan.

Behavioristic learning theory states that student learning outcomes are determined by the content of learning and environmental influences. One factor is the classroom environment, the comfortable classroom environment allows students to concentrate. Students spend more time in class than in other school environments. Education in economic subjects is a lifelong learning process, which is beneficial to life. Economic subjects discuss the basic economic concepts that are directly related to everyday life. The main objective of economic subjects is to prepare students with the knowledge necessary to understand the world and make better choices and prepare them to serve as economic actors in the future. The classroom environment on economic subjects will be connected to the teaching and learning process, including the physical and non-physical environments. Learning theory from Albert Bandura known as Social Learning Theory (social learning theory) with the main concept of reciprocal determination, states that there is a constant interaction between environment, behavior and people that influence the learning process that will ultimately affect the learning outcomes obtained. So it can be said that human behavior is the result of continuous interaction between internal factors (behavior, people) and external (environment).

This study was a case study which aimed to analyze the types of questions used by an English teacher, the purposes of questions asked by the teacher, and the strategy used to cope with non-responded questions. The subject of this study was an English teacher who taught seventh grade students at SMPN 1 Singaraja which is located in Singaraja, Buleleng regency, Bali, Indonesia. The data were collected through observation, interview, and video recording. The result of the analysis showed that from 241 questions, the teacher more frequently asked convergent, closed, and display questions rather than divergent, open, and referential questions. Procedural questions were also found. The teacher’s questions served several purposes such as to check students’ knowledge and understanding, to attract students’ activeness, to develop students’ interest and curiosity, and to stimulate students in stating information. It was also found that the teacher used seven strategies to cope with non-responded questions. This study suggested the teacher to balance the number of convergent, closed, and display with divergent, open, and referential questions to be used during teaching and learning process. In addition, the teacher should know more about the strategies for non-responded questions and the proper way to use those strategies to make the teaching and learning process runs smoothly.

Abstract Even in our modern schools, it is not unusual to Dnd teach- ers whose practice is shaped primarily from their past experiences. In the traditional language teaching methods, teachers offer course materials in a classroom where students listen, take notes, copy ma- terials, execute homework and complete assignments. In many cases lecturers fail to transfer knowledge to students effectively despite personally having sound technical knowledge in the subject area. However, the challenge that faces the education environment has always been to ensure that the teaching and learning process takes place effectively in a classroom environment. This paper focuses on the author s experiences in implementing an active method in Ara- bic language teaching to promote effective student learning. It ex- plores speciDc pedagogical theories combined with school resources to improve the quality of teaching and student learning. A simpli- Ded educational method for improving the quality of the teaching and learning process is presented. The method called “Teratai sug- gested that the effectiveness of the teaching and learning process is depend on the effective facilitation of communication, involvement and interaction among students, teachers and course content. The article is intended to explore episthemological consepts, assump- tions, approaches, constructions, and applications of Teratai method in Arabic language teaching. The purpose of this discussion is to build the awareness of a variety of effective teaching ideas and tech- niques that a lecturer may consider in light of their current teaching styles and personalities. Key words: Teratai Method, language learning methodology, epis- themological study

AbstractInstant-response technologies, or clickers, are student response devices that help address some of the challenges involved in teaching large classes, namely student motivation and engagement with the material. This article evaluates a diverse set of teaching and learning strategies enabled by clicker technology and their impact on student learning. We highlight five aspects of teaching that are enhanced by the use of clickers, describe an experiment comparing student performance in traditional and clicker lectures, and report results of a survey of student perception about the effects of this technology on motivation, learning, and engagement. We argue that while the use of clickers is time-consuming for the instructor and presents a steep learning curve, clickers improve teaching effectiveness in large classes and hold promise for increasing student learning.
