Abstract: Based on the results of the tests conducted by PISA in 2012 and 2015, there were no significant differences in the ability of students in Indonesia, of which has been still relied on the lower ranks. Even though the school literacy movement (SLM) has been promoted by the government since then, there tends shows a lot of problems and neglect factors related to school policy-makers and the teachers. This self-evaluation study was carried out by involving private secondary school levels in Surabaya to study the achievements of the implementation of the SLM in their school, in particular related with the creation of text-rich environment. The results of this study are expected to provide preliminary research findings on a text-rich environment for the success of GLS in Surabaya. In addition, reflections involving teachers provide an understanding of the concept of literacy among teachers still based on reading and writing activities, not on information literacy and so on. The limitations of this understanding make the development of a text-rich environment in schools very minimal. Abstrak: Berdasarakn hasil tes yang dselenggarakan oleh PISA di tahun 2012 dan 2015 tidak ada perbedaan yang menonjol dalam kemampuan literasi siswa di Indonesia, dan Indonesia masih berada pada peringkat bawah. Sekalipun gerakan literasi sekolah (GLS) sudah digalakkan, tampaknya masih banyak masalah dan kealpaan informasi terkait dengan budaya literasi di sekolah, baik pemangku kebijakan sekolah maupun guru. Penelitian evaluasi diri ini dilaksanakan dengan melibatkan sekolah menengah swasta di Surabaya untuk mengetahui capaian pelaksanaan GLS, terutama penciptaan lingkungan kaya teks. Hasil dari penelitian ini diharapkan mampu memberikan pemetaan awal penciptaan lingkungan kaya teks terhadap kesuksesan GLS di Surabaya. Selain itu, refleksi yang melibatkan guru memberikan gambaran bagaimana pemahaman konsep literasi di antara guru masih berpatok pada aktivitas membaca dan menulis, belum pada literasi informasi dan seterusnya. Keterbatasan pemahaman ini membuat pengembangan lingkungan kaya teks di sekolah juga terlambat

The present study investigates the behavioural intention of prospective customers towards Islamic microfinance services in Bangladesh based on demographic factors such as gender, age, education, and family size. This study uses a self-administered survey questionnaire to determine the intention of prospective customers towards Islamic microfinance services based on five variables, namely subjective norms, attitude towards behaviour, behavioural intention, normative belief, and behavioural belief. A total of 450 questionnaires were distributed, out of which 326 responses were received (72.44%). The findings of this study indicate that male respondents have a higher behavioural intention towards Islamic microfinance services than female respondents. On the other hand, female respondents have a higher behavioural belief towards Islamic microfinance services compared to their male counterparts. The findings also indicate that those respondents who studied up to secondary school level would like to receive opinions from family members and friends about the use of Islamic microfinance services. The present research findings have important implications for Islamic microfinance institutions, practitioners and policy makers. The findings of this study are expected to reflect suggestive steps to increase the behavioural attitude in the use of Islamic microfinance services.

Indonesian reformation era begins with the fall of President Suharto. Political transition and democratic transition impact in the religious life. Therefore, understandably, when the politic transition is not yet fully reflects the idealized conditions. In addition to the old paradigm that is still attached to the brain of policy makers, various policies to mirror the complexity of stuttering ruler to answer the challenges of religious life. This challenge cannot be separated from the hegemonic legacy of the past, including the politicization of SARA. Hegemony that took place during the New Order period, adversely affected the subsequent transition period. It seems among other things, with airings various conflicts nuances SARA previously muted, forced repressive. SARA issues arise as a result of the narrowing of the accommodation space of the nation state during the New Order regime. The New Order regime has reduced the definition of nation-states is only part of a group of people loyal to the government to deny the diversity of socio-cultural reality in it. To handle the inheritance, every regime in the reform era responds with a pattern and a different approach. It must be realized, that the post-reform era, Indonesia has had four changes of government. The leaders of every regime in the reform era have a different background and thus also have a vision that is different in treating the problem of racial intolerance, particularly against religious aspect. This treatment causes the accomplishment difference each different regimes of dealing with the diversity of race, religion and class that has become the hallmark of Indonesian society.

The Impact

This study focuses on examining the impact of three components of materialism on green purchase intention for urban consumers in Vietnam, an emerging economy. An extended Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) is applied as the conceptual framework for this study. The hypotheses are empirically tested using survey data obtained from consumers in Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam. The regression results show support for most of our hypotheses. The findings indicate that two out of three facets of materialism are significant predictors of green purchase intention. Specifically, success is found to be negatively related to purchase intention, while happiness is related positively to the intention. All three antecedents in the TPB model, including attitude towards green purchase, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control are also found to have positive impacts on purchase intention. The research findings are discussed and implications for managers and policy makers are provided.

Valuable Content

There are several International Olympiads for secondary school students (for example, mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology and informatics). These Olympiads are not just a science competition, but a means to care for talent in the particular science. The goal of this paper is to identify the necessary topics important for good results at these international contests, and to compare the contest systems for the countries in South Eastern Europe, in the field of Informatics (Computer Science), as a region that is one of the prominent world regions in the context of high results in the international competitions. Here, we provide comparison through detailed analysis of several countries, and further we present a new approach that may be used to compare the achievements of the countries based on the results that students achieved at these competitions. Finally, we present an application of this approach on the results of some of the discussed countries compared to Macedonia. We strongly believe that the paper will provide a valuable content and approach for the entities involved in the organization of the contests, to measure their results compared to other countries, to use the information for improvement, and to use their achievements to raise awareness among the government institutions and companies in order to get support from them.

Education Performance

Higher education in Indonesia is regulated by the government with the Higher Education Accreditation (APT). In APT 3.0, Higher Education is required to be able to present performance data in the form of a Higher Education Performance Report (LKPT) as a reference in making a Self-Evaluation Report (LED). However, it is necessary to have an in-depth analysis to determine the gaps in the data required by Higher Education according to the APT 3.0 standard. The process of integrating the samples refer to the Zachman Framework (ZF). The results of this simplification that the data is available in support of APT 3.0 approximately 79% of the total data both inside and outside the core business of Higher Education and is well managed in an integrated database. The remaining 21% of the data that are not available is spread across several information systems, especially SIMMawa, SIMHumas and Cooperation, and SIMAKU. This shows that the change in accreditation standards that have been in effect since April 2019 has created a significant data gap for Higher Education. This research also produced an alternative model of integrated data management that can be used as input for Information System developers in the Higher Education scope.

Intersectoral terms of trade play a cruc1al role in determining the sectoral distribution of income and resource allocation in the developing countries. The significance of intra-sectoral terms of trade for the allocation of resources within the agricultural sector is also widely accepted by research scholars and policy-makers. In the context of planned development, the government specifies production targets for the agricultural sector and for different crops. The intervention of government in the field of price determination has important implications for the achievement of planned targets. In Pakistan, there is a feeling among many groups including farmers and politicians with a rural background that prices of agricultural crops have not kept their parities intact over time and that prices generally do not cover the costs of production. The feeling that production incentives for agriculture have been eroded is especially strong for the period since the early 1970s. It is argued that strong inflationary pressures supported by a policy of withdrawal of government subsidies on agricultural inputs have resulted in rapid increases in the prices paid by agriculturists and that increases in the prices received by farmers were not enough to compensate them for the rising prices of agricultural inputs and consumption goods.
