[ Development of Chemistry Workbook Based on Science Generic Skill ] Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi karena kurangnya ketersediaan bahan ajar yang dapat membantu peserta didik dalam proses pembelajaran dan belum adanya penggunaan LKPD berbasis keterampilan generic sains. Dalam penelitian ini dikembangkan LKPD berbasis Keterampilan Generik Sains untuk mendukung pembelajaran pada materi larutan penyangga. Jenis penelitian merupakan penelitian pengembangan dengan menggunakan desain Borg and Gall, yang dilakukan di SMA Negeri 1 Tambang. Data yang diambil dalam penelitian ini yaitu berupa data angket, wawancara, dan studi pustaka. Instrumen pengumpulan data berupa data angket uji validitas dan angket uji praktikalitas. Data yang diperoleh kemudian dianalisis dengan teknik analisis deskriptif kualitatif dan deskriptif kuantitatif. Lembar Kerja Peserta Didik (LKPD) yang dihasilkan telah teruji valid dengan persentase 86,88% (sangat valid) dan teruji praktis dengan persentase 89,09% (Sangat Praktis). Dari hasil tersebut disimpulkan bahwa Lembar Kerja Peserta Didik berbasis keterampilan generik sains pada materi larutan penyangga sudah valid dan praktis sehingga dapat dilakukan uji coba selanjutnya

This paper proposes the Advanced-Active-Autonomous (A3) Learning System, which is an educational system based on the use of information and communication technology. The A3 Learning System is a combination of Active Learning (AL), Project/Problem-Based Learning (PBL) and Mastery Learning (ML). We report some uses of the A3 system and implemented AL and ML in foundational learning in the software/hardware information fields. Additionally, we implemented PBL in software design. We implemented two methods; one involves individual students and the other involves a group. Furthermore, to evaluate the benefits of the A3 Learning System, the Progress Report on Generic Skill (PROG) test was carried out; the results of the test are discussed here.

The objective of this research was to test perceptions of accounting graduates fromPoliteknik Negeri Lampung and employers to various competencies and their attributes. Theperceptions of accounting graduates and employers were ranked to produce competence types(attributes) that were categorized into two skills; generic and technical skills. The researchrespondents were graduates of the Accounting Study program in Politeknik Negeri Lampungand representatives from employer or company managements. The hypothesis was tested witha one-tailed paired t-test and ranking was done based on the mean score from each skill. Theresearch result showed that the accounting graduates considered generic skill was overall moreimportant than technical skill, even though individually technical skill was more important thangeneric skill and it was proven by the highest mean score at technical skill according to theaccounting graduates‟ perceptions. This research also found that overall the employerconsidered generic skill was more important than technical skill, even though individuallytechnical skill obtained the highest mean score according to employer perceptions.

Literacy Framework

The aim of this paper is to show how information literacy can be conceptualised as a key learning process related to discipline and academic maturity, rather than as a generic skill. Results of a smallscale study including questionnaires and observation of student behaviour are reported and analysed in relation to Bruce’s ‘seven faces of information literacy’ framework. The findings illustrate that information literacy is a highly situated practice that remains undeveloped through mandatory schooling. Some methodological issues are considered in relation to researching information literacy, including the limits of the Bruce model as a framework for analysis. We also show how decontextualised courses can foreground and privilege certain behaviours that are beneficial but that developing higher-level information literate attitudes is likely to be an iterative and contextualised process.DOI: 10.1080/0968776042000339790

Descriptive Survey

This study explores student responses to a research assignment handout that was redesigned in light of the recommendations from a 2010 Project Information Literacy report. Framed through Lea and Street’s Academic Literacies model, which positions information literacy as a social and situated practice rather than as a generic skill set or a process of socialisation, this study uses a descriptive survey method (annotations and a questionnaire) to demonstrate that the addition of disciplinary context helped to scaffold students’ critical engagement with scholarly conventions as well as with the broader information landscape.  The study concludes by calling for renewed librarian engagement with alternative theoretical frameworks of literacy as well as the inclusion of student perspectives into studies of academic learning.

Objectively Measured

In Canada, in general – and in the Province of Ontario in particular – academics, employers, and government agencies are concerned with the low generic skill levels of university students and graduates. The assumption is that such deficiencies detract from academic and job success. Despite this concern, in Canada, research has not focused on potential links between objectively measured generic skills and grades recorded in administrative records. In view of this lacuna, the current research has two objectives. First, to assess the net effect of objectively measured generic skills on academic achievement as recorded in administrative records. Second, to determine the efficacy of an online course dedicated to the development of generic skills. Overall, I found that generic skills were better predictors of students’ achievement than high school grades used in admission processes; the relationship between high school grades and generic skill levels was weak; students’ generic skill levels did not improve over time; and an online course devoted to increasing students’ generic skills was effective in boosting skills to an acceptable level. Accordingly, if they are concerned with academic achievement, universities in Ontario and in other jurisdictions in which students are admitted to university primarily based on their secondary school grades might make the development of generic skills a priority; however, unless such skills are demanded across the curriculum, they will atrophy.

PurposeThis study investigates perceptions regarding generic skills future entry-level accountants and auditors will require. Such soft or pervasive skills are necessary to operate effectively in the future world of work. Prior research mainly explores generic skills from an attribute-based perspective, while this paper combines it with an activity-based perspective in generic skill profiles of accountants and auditors.Design/methodology/approachFollowing a mixed methods research approach through focus group discussions and a survey involving more than 3,000 professional accountants and/or auditors, the study uses data from the Southern African region (South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia) to determine views on the competency needs of future accountants and auditors. An exploratory factor analysis was conducted to determine whether categories of generic skills for future entry-level accountants and auditors differ.FindingsFour generic skills factors emerged as essential for future entry-level chartered accountants (CAs): digital, decision-making, organisational and business acumens. Three generic skill factors emerged for future registered auditors (RAs): digital, practice and commercial acumens. The results show that generic skill profiles of CAs and RAs, who are members of an accounting body differ and that both the context, related to an activity-based perspective, and individual or internal abilities, related to an attribute-based perspective, matter.Research limitations/implicationsThe study extends generic skill theory by identifying broad categories of generic skills (referred to as acumens) for future accountants and auditors.Practical implicationsInsights from this paper facilitate a comprehensive understanding of the generic skill profile approach, combining attribute-based and activity-based perspectives, and this could assist accounting educators, practitioners and professional bodies to better prepare entry-level accounting and audit professionals for the workplace.Originality/valueThe study identifies broad categories (digital, decision-making, organisational, business, practice and commercial acumens) within generic skill profiles of CAs and RAs and shows that generic skills do not operate independently and should be viewed as an interdependent set or constellation of competencies.
