Sound Theoretical Basis

Constructivism suggests that humans construct knowledge and meaning from their experiences. So an individual’s knowledge is a function of one’s prior experiences, mental structures, and beliefs that are used to interpret objects and events. The present study tries to seek for what constructivists believe regarding curriculum development; they claim that learners construct their own reality or at least interpret it based upon their perceptions of experiences, What someone knows is grounded in perception of the physical and social experiences which are comprehended by the mind (Jonasson, 1991). Feature of this approach is that it does not adopt doctrinaire allegiance to particular levels of teacher input ( as can be the case with teaching through discovery learning , or direct instruction) but rather the level of teacher guidance (a) is determined for particular learning activities by considering the learners and the materials to be learnt ; (b) shifts across sequences of teaching and learning episodes, and includes potential for highly structured guidance and, as well as more exploratory activities. When understood in these terms, constructivism provides a sound theoretical basis for informing teaching at all levels, and in all disciplines. If our efforts in reforming education for all students are to succeed, then we must focus on students. The study concluded that teachers need to reflect on their practice in order to apply these ideas to their work and that constructivist teachers encourage students to constantly assess how the activity is helping them gain understanding.

Pedagogical Approaches

A soulful curriculum acknowledges and places an importance to life’s ultimate questions and man’s inner dimension. It pursues a balance and convergence between our inner and outer lives. In Islam, there is no separate discipline of ethics and religion. Islam is founded on the principles of belief and righteous action. In this sense, a meaningful education should not only focus on training the mind to retain and retrieve knowledge per se but to nurture a personality with good characters and behaviours. However, the reality that we are facing today in the education system is the reverse of that.  The exclusion of ethical and spiritual dimensions in pedagogical approaches is not only observed in present practices but also in existing references, concepts, and theories in the field of education, philosophy, and psychological literature. Modern theories are inadequate to act as a drive for the transformation of an individual’s personality. Therefore, this paper aimed to explore the pedagogical approaches reflected from a prominent Muslim philosopher and spiritual master, Mawlana Jalal al-Din Rumi (1207-1273 A.D) towards fostering a balanced and excellent personality through education. The main contributions of Al-Rumi that are of great importance for today’s educators are: God-consciousness as the foundation of learning; the need to instill love and compassion through service learning; making learning enjoyable; and emphasis on experiential outdoor learning. Practical pedagogical implications of these were discussed in the light of educational psychology perspectives for educators to integrate these approaches in their teaching and learning activities in the classroom.

Applying qualitative and quantitative research methods, the study has outlined basic issues of discovery learning as a theoretical basis for organizing discovery learning in the teaching and learning of pedagogy at the University of Languages and International Studies, Vietnam National University, Hanoi (ULIS-VNU). In practice, the focus is on evaluating the effectiveness of discovery learning model application and the level of soft skills students aquire through discovery learning activities in teaching and learning pedagogy at ULIS-VNU. Lecturers’ ability to organize discovery learning activities in teaching pedagogy has also been assessed. The results indicate that although students’ assessments of all the three aspects are positive, the majority believe that several points need changing and improving, such as: suitable plans for evaluation and self-assessment of learning outcomes throughout the course in place; both the objectives and content of discovery learning should be clearly and specifically designed, etc. and in order to achieve the expected results in teaching and learning pedagogy along with the intergration of soft skills training for students at ULIS-VNU in particular, and in pedagogical colleges in general, discovery learning activities need to be appropriately, rigorously and scientifically organized.

Abstract The syndrome of unilateral neglect, typified by a lateralized attention bias and neglect of contralateral space, is an important cause of morbidity and disability after a stroke. In this review, we discuss the challenges that face researchers attempting to elucidate the mechanisms and effectiveness of rehabilitation treatments. The neglect syndrome is a heterogeneous disorder, and it is not clear which of its symptoms cause ongoing disability. We review current methods of neglect assessment and propose logical approaches to selecting treatments, while acknowledging that further study is still needed before some of these approaches can be translated into routine clinical use. We conclude with systems-level suggestions for hypothesis development that would hopefully form a sound theoretical basis for future approaches to the assessment and treatment of neglect.

The accuracy and reliability is the quality of the information. The more accurate and reliable, the more information it’s good quality. Similarly, a survey, the better the survey, the more accurate the information provided. Implementation of student satisfaction measurement to the process of teaching and learning activities on the quality of the implementation of important lectures in order to get feedback on the assessed variables and for future repair. Likewise in Higher Education Prog has undertaken the process of measuring student satisfaction through a distributed questioner finally disemester each class lecture. However, the deployment process questioner is identified there are 7 (seven) problems. However, the problem can be resolved by the 3 (three) ways of solving problems one of which is a system of iLearning Survey (Isur), that is by providing an online survey to students that can be accessed anywhere and anytime. In the implementation shown a prototype of Isur itself. It can be concluded that the contribution Isur system can maximize the decision taken by the Higher Education Prog. By using this Isur system with questions and evaluation forms are submitted and given to the students and the other colleges. To assess the extent to which the campus has grown and how faculty performance in teaching students class, and can be used as a media Isur valid information for an assessment of activities throughout college.
