The data analysis involved descriptive quantitative and qualitative analyses. The results of the study are as follows: First, in part (50%) of the lesson plans made by teachers was in good category. All (100%) of lesson plans had assessed attitude, knowledge, and skill. Some part of the lesson plan (33%) included assessment techniques that are in accordance with the competencies assessed, and some other (50%) used HOTS questions, while the other (50%) used realistic questions. Second, in part (51)% of the teachers conducted authentic assessmentsm which is included in good category.

The Subject

Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi keterlaksanaan pendidikan karakter terintegrasi di SMP dan mengukur capaian hasilnya. Pelaksanaan pendidikan karakter terintegrasi pada lima kota di Indonesia belum menunjukkan hasil yang menggembirakan. Selain berhenti hanya pada tataran kognitif, muatan nilai-nilai karakter yang diintegrasikan ke berbagai mata pelajaran sifatnya hanya “tempelan”, sekadar ditulis di Rencana Pelaksanaan Pembelajaran, tanpa eksplisitasi kongkret dalam pelaksanaan. Sebagian besar guru mata pelajaran yang dititipi muatan pendidikan karakter secara terintegrasi mengalami keterbatasan kemampuan mendeskripsikan, mengaktualisasikan, dan membumikan pelaksanaan misi itu. Pada sisi lain, kehadiran dan peran konselor yang secara khusus dibekali untuk peran transmitter pendidikan “hati” (pendidikan karakter) tidak dilibatkan sama sekali, sebagaimana tampak pada sebagian besar SMP di Indonesia tidak menyediakan jam layanan bimbingan klasikal. Gagasan penelitian ini diharapkan menginspirasi kerangka kerja ditemukannya model alternatif pendidikan karakter yang berorientasi pada terbangunnya kemitraan-kolaboratif profesional antara konselor/Guru BK dengan guru mata pelajaran dalam implementasi pendidikan karakter di sekolah. Kata Kunci: pendidikan karakter, bimbingan klasikal, peran konselor MEASURING THE RESULT OFTHE INTEGRATED CHARACTER EDUCATION IN JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOLS Abstract: This study was aimed to evaluate the implementation of the character education in Junior High School and to measure the result. The implementation of integrated character education in Junior High School in several cities in Indonesia has not shown satisfactory result. It was only at the cognitive level. The contents of character values integrated into a variety of subjects were just like "patches". They are only written in a lesson plan, without realization in the implementation. Most of the subject teachers who are entrusted with the content of character education integrated into the learning process, had limited ability to describe, actualize, and implement the mission. On the other hand, the counsellor who was specifically equipped with the transmitter role of character education was not involved at all. This could be seen in most junior high schools in Indonesia which did not provide a classical guidance service schedule. This study is expected to inspire the finding of an alternative of the character education model oriented to professional collaborative partnership between the counsellors and teachers implementing the character education. Keywords: character education, classroom guidance, the role of counsellor

Examination of the music opportunities available to students in the junior high schools of the early twentieth century lends historical perspective to current challenges facing middle level music educators. This article describes the specific music offerings at Lincoln Junior High School in Minneapolis, Minnesota, from the school opening in 1923 to 1940, when financial challenges forced the reorganization of the music program. In many ways, the music curriculum at Lincoln Junior High School in Minneapolis was exemplary of the music experiences found in other junior high schools. The required curriculum was based on the general music model of the elementary school and included music appreciation and a strong emphasis on the development of music reading skills. Extracurricular “clubs” provided performance opportunities for young adolescent musicians. Choruses focused on preparing large-scale productions such as operettas and musicals, while instrumental groups participated in contests and festivals. Performances for school assemblies and civic groups provide evidence of the importance of connections to the community for junior high schools. The formation of the Girls’ Band at Lincoln in 1924 was unusual. In the absence of direct evidence, I postulate possible explanations for the founding of this unique ensemble.

Abstract Background Globally, among a wide range of public health concerns, smoking remains one of the most crucial challenges. Especially for adolescents, the increase in the use of electronic cigarettes is controversial, as its use may lead to established smoking. In Japan, where a unique tobacco regulation system exists, the heat-not-burn tobacco market has been growing. However, the prevalence and association of combustible cigarettes and new tobacco-related products have not yet been closely investigated among Japanese adolescents. This study aimed to clarify the prevalence of smoking among adolescents including new types of tobacco-related products and to compare the characteristics of their users.Methods In 2017, a cross-sectional survey was conducted with randomly sampled junior high school and high school students from 47 prefectures nationwide. Overall, 98 junior high schools in 44 prefectures and 86 high schools in 42 prefectures were included in the survey. In total, 22,275 students from 48 junior high schools and 42,142 students from 55 high schools completed an anonymous questionnaire while at school.Results The age-adjusted rate of ever (current) use of electronic cigarettes was 2.1% (0.7%) in junior high school and 3.5% (1.0%) in high school; that of combustible cigarettes was 2.6% (0.6%) in junior high school and 5.1% (1.5%) in high school; the rate of heat-not-burn tobacco use was lower relative to the other products: 1.1% (0.5%) in junior high school and 2.2% (0.9%) in high school. Examination of the combined use of the three types of products identified a high number of dual users. Comparison between different types of users indicated different backgrounds of combustible cigarette users and new products users.Conclusions The prevalence of new tobacco-alternative products is growing in popularity among Japanese adolescents. Dual use is common, and many adolescents use new products only. Moreover, e-cigarettes might lure a broader range of groups to smoking. Continuous monitoring and further research should investigate the health impact of new products to promote public health action regarding smoking epidemics.
