The isolation situation caused by the COVID 19 pandemic necessitated a shift to pedagogical interaction from a distance for kindergarten teachers as well. At first, for many of us, „distance learning“ seemed a daunting task. Accustomed to usiAng approaches based on games, projects, hand and body work, keeping children away and communicating at a distance, it required finding alternative ways to tackle this challenge. How did we make distance learning work in kindergartens as well? The good shared experience in Bulgaria and around the world helped the educators to find an approach to the parents in order to continue the children’s education together, while remaining true to what the children love the most – to play.

<p>Prophet Muhammad in a hadith reveals that there are four things making people happy:  having shalihah  wife, spacious houses, comfortable vehicles, and good neighbors. A house as the inhabited buildings working as the activity base is one of the ways to form a society and Islam civilization. An Islamic house must be able to have two functions in life. First, the welfare of the world including: a sense of compassion (mawadah warahmah), ensuring children's education, creating hospitality (ukhuwah Islamiyah), forming the Muslim individual, supporting successful careers, and having health condition. Second, the welfare of the afterlife including: easy to implement the mahdah worship, muamalah process and able to keep its inhabitants from the things forbidden and makruh.<br />An Islamic house is not always designed like mosques or houses which are full of Islamic ornaments, such as calligraphy, and more. An Islamic house is an efficient house which can be used to  dhikr to Allah, and to remember death. The house is not always facing the Qibla or the lavatory was not facing Mecca. An Islamic house is a house that allows occupants to stay and interact with others. Besides, the privacy of each person can also be maintained in it. It is then becoming the task of the architects to make Islamic houses. However, the most important thing of an Islamic house is that it does not isolate the occupants from the outside world. Further, it could create a better interaction and social relationship with its surroundings and neighbors.</p><p>Key words: Islamic House, rules, adab<br /><br /></p>

This study aims to explain the importance of children's education in preventing ignorance. This study used a qualitative approach. As for the subjects of this research are Indonesian children who are in Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta school. This research was conducted online considering the Covid-19 pandemic is still engulfing Indonesia, so face-to-face via zoom and direct interviews were conducted.  The data analysis technique used was descriptive qualitative.  The results show that early childhood education is very important to prevent stupidity because children need to be given insight and understanding about the world of children. So that they are able to face their lives appropriately and are not affected by the currents of social life. Thus, this study showed that educational failures could result in ignorance for Indonesian children. The emergence of mass ignorance, of course, did not happen suddenly, but there was a cause to it. Experts stated that the mass ignorance is due to the lack of education, the lack of knowledge about science and technology and the laziness of some children. Therefore, the mass ignorance in children's education should be erased by giving necessary education to advance their thinking. Also, children's education must be positioned as the target of all educational endeavors because education aims to inculcate all aspects and values of a good life to prevent and reduce mass ignorance in Indonesia.

Changes in family relations and in the world socioeconomic panorama have led to a review of the roles of men and women in the exercise of their children's education. Aiming to know the reflexes of these changes, this research had as main objective to understand, from the point of view of the gestaltic approach, the meaning of being a father for man today. Six fathers between 30 and 40 years old, with children between the ages of 2 and 11, participated in the study. The data were collected through a semi-structured interview and for its analysis was used the Giorgi phenomenological method. Four main categories were found: responsibility, closeness and coexistence, expressing affection and being a better father. It was noted that the father of the present is in the process of transformation, in a movement of closer approach of the children, seeking a more affective and meaningful relationship.

<p>Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1940), Asia’s first Nobel laureate, was convinced that nothing influences children’s education and upbringing more than the ‘atmosphere’ in which they grow up. He argues that children learn many things by absorbing them unconsciously. In the experimental schools he founded in India, he shifted the focus from the teaching content to creating the conditions that help intensifying children’s connection with the world. The creative and aesthetic potentialities of ‘atmosphere’ are vital in all forms of education. Tagore’s notion of atmosphere is currently gaining new specificity thanks to a range of philosophical reconceptualizations of atmosphere. In this paper, I will compare Tagore’s philosophy of ‘atmosphere’ with concepts that are more commonly used in education today, such as ‘ethos’ and ‘climate’. I will then take the concept forward by comparing it with Sloterdijk’s spherologies and thereby adding a new dimension to his conceptualization of spherology. By comparing Tagore’s ‘atmosphere’ with concepts and ideas of philosophers and social scientists, we will get a better grasp on its importance and scope.</p>

This study dealt with Survival Strategy for Lokan Seekers in Paya Pasir Village, Kec. Marelan, Medan, Indonesia. This situation explains that the number of women in poverty is still high. The high rate of poverty involving women certainly does not happen on its own, there are many things that must be explored and investigated and discussed about what factors make women and poverty as difficult to reduce and eliminate. The research used was qualitative research with an ethnographic approach. Spradley (1997: 3) argues that ethnography is the work of describing a culture. The main purpose of this activity is to understand a view of life from the perspective of the native population. In result, For parents, especially those who have a low income level, it should make children's education the first, because to improve the standard of living can only be done with education. Good children's education will produce changes in life. Besides that, a child should not be taught or supervised in fulfilling the family's economic needs, so that the child can be more focused in taking his education. With this education, a child can compete in the world of structural work, so as to reduce poverty as in the area of Paya Pasir Village.

Homeschooling is a phenomenon in which parents seek to maintain the responsibility for their children's education, rather than sending them to school. In this chapter, mothers' motives for choosing home schooling in Israel are explored. Data were collected through semi-structured deep interviews with 27 mothers. The findings indicate that the main motives are set on a continuum of criticism against school and the notion that “home is the best resolution” to that criticism. It suggests further work needs to be undertaken in this area to connect Israel's unique situation to the experiences of mothers throughout the world who are choosing home education.
