This paper describes poetry as an alternative to implement Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL). CTL places learning and learning activities in a real-life context, incorporating not only what is learned but also why students should learn it. Meanwhile, poetry is chosen for its authenticity, in which, all nations have their own record on poetry. The classroom activities which involve poetry are poetry production (writing), poetry performance (reading), and poetry appreciation (speaking). By using poetry, learning processes are expected to meet the seven main components of effective learning: constructivism, questioning, inquiry, learning community, modeling, and authentic assessment. Moreover, the learning process can develop not only language skills but also critical thinking skill.  Keywords: Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL), poetry, components of ideal teaching and learning

This paper aims to pay attention to the development of Islamic education based on Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) theory as a solution to the crisis experienced by Islamic education. In fact, Islamic education is sidelined in public schools because it uses conventional learning methods that are boring and do not provide a significant educational product. Previous research found that the accuracy of lecture-based conventional learning only gave 11% level of meaning for students. This fact is in contrast to the theory of CTL or contextual learning and teaching which emphasizes the contextualization of knowledge. In the end, this study found that CTL learning emphasizes the process of involving students in finding the material being studied and connecting it to real-life situations. This learning model encourages students to be able to apply it in everyday life. There are six characteristics of CTL learning, namely: meaningful learning, application of knowledge, higher order thinking, curriculum which is symbolized by standards, responsiveness to culture, and authentic assessment. In addition, CTL has seven principles that underlie the implementation of the learning process using the CTL learning model, namely: constructivism, inquiry, questioning, learning community, modeling, reflection, and real assessment. CTL learning is very necessary, especially in efforts to develop Islamic education, because it invites students to be more active in learning. ABSTRAKMakalah ini bertujuan memberi perhatian kepada pengembangan Pendidikan Agama Islam berbasis teori Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) sebagai solusi dari krisis yang dialami Pendidikan Agama Islam. Kenyataannya, Pendidikan Agama Islam dikesampingkan di sekolah umum karena menggunakan metode pembelajaran konvensional yang membosankan dan tidak memberi produk pendidikan yang signifikan. Penelitian sebelumnya menemukan bahwa akurasi pembelajaran konvensional berbasis ceramah hanya memberi 11% tingkat kebermaknaan bagi siswa. Kenyataan ini berbanding terbalik dengan teori CTL atau pembelajaran dan pengajaran kontekstual yang menekankan kontekstualisasi pengetahuan. Pada akhirnya, penelitian ini menemukan pembelajaran CTL menekankan kepada proses keterlibatan peserta didik untuk menemukan materi yang dipelajari dan menghubungkan dengan situasi kehidupan nyata. Model pembelajaran ini mendorong peserta didik untuk dapat menerapkannya dalam kehidupan sehari-sehari. Terdapat enam karakteristik pembelajaran CTL, yaitu: pembelajaran bermakna, penerapan pengetahuan, berpikir tingkat tinggi, kurikulum yang dilambangkan berdasarkan standar, reponsif terhadap kebudayaan, dan penilaian autentik. Selain itu, CTL memiliki tujuh asas yang melandasi pelaksanaan proses pembelajaran menggunakan model pembelajaran CTL, yaitu: konstruktivisisme, inquiry, bertanya, masyarakat belajar, modelling, refleksi, dan penilaian nyata. Pembelajaran CTL sangat diperlukan terutama dalam upaya pengembangan pendidikan agama Islam, karena bersifat mengajak peserta didik lebih aktif dalam pembelajaran.

Kurikulum 2004 dan 2006 yang merupakan Kurikulum Berbasis Kompetensi (KBK) menuntut semua mata pelajaran menggunakan pendekatan pembelajaran yang mampu mengupayakan pengembangan kemampuan siswa dalam mengelola perolehan belajar (kompetensi) yang paling sesuai dengan kondisi masing-masing.  Dengan demikian proses pembelajaran lebih mengacu kepada bagaimana siswa belajar dan bukan lagi pada apa yang dipelajari.  KBK menempatkan siswa sebagai subjek didik, yaitu lebih banyak mengikutsertakan siswa dalam proses pembelajaran.  Pendekatan ini bertolak dari anggapan bahwa siswa memiliki potensi untuk berpikir sendiri, dan potensi tesebut hanya dapat diwujudkan apabila mereka diberi banyak kesempatan untuk berpikir sendiri. Pendekatan kontekstual (Contextual Teaching and Learning/CTL) merupakan konsep belajar yang membantu guru mengaitkan antara materi yang diajarkannya dengan situasi dunia nyata siswa dan mendorong siswa membuat hubungan antara pengetahuan yang dimilikinya dengan penerapannya dalam kehidupan mereka sebagai anggota keluarga dan masyarakat, dengan melibatkan tujuh komponen utama pembelajaran efektif, yaitu: konstruktivisme (Constructivism), bertanya (Questioning), menemukan (Inquiry), masyarakat belajar (Learning Community), pemodelan (Modelling), dan penilaian sebenarnya (Authentic Assessment).  Pembelajaran penjas yang menggunakan pendekatan kontekstual diharapkan membantu tercapainya tujuan mata pelajaran penjas.  Pengalaman gerak yang diperoleh siswa diharapkan bukan karena mencontoh atau meniru guru akan tetapi siswa menemukan pola geraknya sendiri dengan bantuan/fasilitas dari guru.

The 2013 curriculum states that the purpose of teaching English for junior high school is to develop students’ communicative competence. In line with this expectation, several learning characteristics have been defined i.e. learning from model, observing, questioning, gathering information, associating, and communicating. Therefore, the teaching approaches that are used by the teacher in teaching English must suit the criteria to promote students' communicative competence. Contextual Teaching and learning (CTL) seems to be compatible as an approach since it has the the characteristics of constructivism, questioning, inquiry, learning community, modelling, reflection, and authentic assessment, which are similar to the learning characteristics mentioned above, which are similar to the learning characteristics mentioned above. , which are similar to the learning characteristics mentioned above. Therefore, a qualitative research concerning the issue was conducted to see how CTL approach is implemented under the 2013 curriculum in teaching reading comprehension. From the result of observation, questionnaire, and interview as the instruments, it was found that CTL was implemented properly from phase to phase and is applicable to be implemented under the curriculum. Also, it promotes active and enjoyable learning, facilitates the students to comprehend the material and helps them to implement the knowledge in real life. The. The teacher had implemented all of the procedures of CTL under the instruction of the 2013 curriculum. Thus, applying the CTL CTL approach in the process of teaching for the 2013 curriculum for the 2013 curriculum is recommended since it gives satisfactory benefits for students.

In an ideal world, assessment should be synonymous with effective learning and reflect the intricacies of the subject area. It should also be aligned with the ideals of education: to provide equitable opportunities for all students to achieve and to allow both appropriate differentiation for varied contexts and students and comparability across various contexts and students. This challenge is made more difficult in circumstances in which the contexts are highly heterogeneous, for example in the state of Queensland, Australia. Assessment in music challenges schooling systems in unique ways because teaching and learning in music are often naturally differentiated and diverse, yet assessment often calls for standardization. While each student and teacher has individual, evolving musical pathways in life, the syllabus and the system require consistency and uniformity. The challenge, then, is to provide diverse, equitable, and quality opportunities for all children to learn and achieve to the best of their abilities. This chapter discusses the designing and implementation of large-scale curriculum as experienced in secondary schools in Queensland, Australia. The experiences detailed explore the possibilities offered through externally moderated school-based assessment. Also discussed is the centrality of system-level clarity of purpose, principles and processes, and the provision of supportive networks and mechanisms to foster autonomy for a diverse range of music educators and contexts. Implications for education systems that desire diversity, equity, and quality are discussed, and the conclusion provokes further conceptualization and action on behalf of students, teachers, and the subject area of music.

There is the fact that the students' learning outcome in Applied Physics course related to the application of the mining industry is unsatisfactory. Based on the results of the final score, the rate of successful students was only around 40%. Moreover, students' understanding application is also not by the desired competencies. In this research, a learning model was developed from the Contextual Teaching and Learning Model (CTL), i.e., DILA model which consists of four syntaxes (Display, Inquiry, Learning Community, and Authentic Assessment). The effectiveness of the DILA learning model was investigated to improve students’ learning outcomes in the Applied Physics course. This research employed the quasi-experimental design where the experimental class was treated by DILA model based on Contextual Teaching and Learning; whereas control class was not treated by the model. Data were obtained from the results of the pre-test and post-test scores; then it was analyzed by a parametric with an independent t-test, related t-test, and the effect size. The results indicate that there was a significant increase in students’ learning outcomes in the experimental class compared to the control class. In conclusion, DILA model can improve students’ learning outcomes in the Applied Physics course effectively.Hasil belajar Fisika Terapan yang diperoleh mahasiswa yang terlihat dari nilai akhir semester dan penerapan pada industri pertambangan pada umumnya tidak memuaskan. Tingkat kelulusan mahasiswa hanya sekitar 40%. Sehingga pemahaman mahasiswa dalam penerapannya juga tidak sesuai dengan kompetensi yang diinginkan. Model DILA merupakan salah satu model pembelajaran yang dikembangkan dari Model Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL). Model DILA terdiri atas empat sintaks yaitu: Display, Inquiry, Learning Community, dan Authenthic Assessment. Penelitian ini ditujukan untuk mengukur efektifitas Model Pembelajaran DILA guna meningkatkan hasil belajar mahasiswa pada matakuliah Fisika Terapan. Penelitian ini merupakan quasi eksperiment dimana kelas eksperimen diberikan pembelajaran dengan Model DILA berbasis Contextual Teaching and Learning.

During hurricane season, maps that track predicted storm paths are commonly seen on television and the Internet. The Weather Channel often receives number-one viewership ratings in regions encountering a major weather event, such as a hurricane or tornado (Kloer 2001). Mathematics teachers can tap into students' curiosity and interest about hurricanes to develop their understanding of mathematical ideas within a real-life context. In this article, we discuss observations and findings after implementing mathematics tasks based on data about hurricanes. Finding patterns and relationships, creating and interpreting graphs, and examining rates of change are just a few of the topics that can be studied. We developed these tasks as part of the Students' Transition Toward Algebra project and have used them with both middle school teachers and students.
