Biology is a subject that learn topics about morphology, anatomy, and physiology, biodiversity, ecosystem, and the environment. Therefore, an appropriate learning approach is needed for students so that the topics will be received by students well. Learning is not only about a transfer of knowledge but also skills and attitudes. This article describes about learning approaches that can be applied to students in Biology. The research was a literature study method from various literature. There are three kinds of learning approaches that appropriate in Biology. They are Scientific Approach, Environmental Exploration Approach, and Local Wisdom and Cultural Approach. The characteristic of the scientific approach was scientific thinking. The characteristics of the Environmental Exploration Approach was an exploration in the environment, such as natural, social, and technology. The characteristic of the local wisdom and cultural approach was ethnobiology and ethnopedagogy studies in learning through science processes based on the level of knowledge, skills and attitudes of students. These three approaches were expected to be an alternative in learning Biology because they contain the principles of scientific processes and student centered learning in them to accommodate 21<sup>st</sup>-century education.

Technology And Teaching

Teachers at a technology diverse school explored ways to shift toward a more student- centered pedagogical practice. The project determined whether a shift in teacher practices could impact student engagement and success. The results were positive: many students had more academic success when student-centered learning activities were incorporated into their schooling. In theory, this means student learning that includes non-linear learning approaches can work in more generalizable settings than what have been expansively published in the current literature. In practice, the findings may help to inform schools dealing with current societal pressures to help their students find greater success through the use of pedagogically appropriate technology implementations and teacher support.

Democratic Learning

This paper aims to promote the implementation of the concept of strengthening moderate Islam through democratic learning in Islamic elementary schools. The ease of internet access and remote communication, as the effect of globalization in the field of technology, can be used to gain any information needed, including the Islamic knowledge that can be freely learned without teachers. A literature study was employed to describe the data related to the internalization of moderate Islam and democratic learning. The findings demonstrate that moderate Islam (tawasuth) is a life principle that upholds justice in social life. The values of moderate Islam can be internalized in the school curriculum as a reinforcement starting from the elementary school level through implementing democratic learning. This application can be carried out through various methods such as discussion, question and answer, group work, and simulation. The implementation of democratic learning encourages communicative relationships between teachers and students, fosters friendship, and enhances the value of ‘ukhuwah’ (good relations). Furthermore, these methods emphasize student-centered learning. This study also illustrates that democratic learning provides a wide array of opportunities for students to creatively and critically express their ideas and thoughts in their own learning styles.

The study is of significance because it considers the student-centered learning approaches. The paper also seeks to answer the question as to the factors that lead students to make their preferences for the online teaching tools and devices. A total of 150 students, both men, and women, participated in the study. An online survey was carried out in the form of questionnaires to elicit their responses. The results showed that laptop computers were the dominant devices students used and preferred. They also revealed that the Zoom platform came first in students’ preferences, followed by Blackboard. Also, the findings showed that although participants used smartphones in their ERL, they did not recommend it, and it came last compared to laptops, tablets, and desktop computers in their order of preference. Gender differences existed in preferences to desktops and tablets in ERL. Another gender difference existed in preferences to platforms. Women students preferred Blackboard to Zoom while men students expressed the opposite.

This paper discusses the concept of teachers' profesaionalism and challenges in facing the industrial revolution era 4.0. In this case, teachers have a very important role at schools in utilizing various learning approaches. The traditional learning (teacher-centered) approach long implemented for years has now been considered out of date that student-centered learning replaces the approach. The teachers' role has recently shifted that teachers now become the facilitators for their learners. These shifting learning approach has become an inevitabity to anticipate that a concret action is greatly required. Educational world should be able to manage itself by making some renewals and innovations related to the management system, curriculum, Human Resource Competence Development, culture, working ethics, and facilities. This study uses references related to the nature of teachers' profesionalism, industrial revolution 4.0, and various challenges. Concrete actions need to be well prepared as well as creatively, dynamically, and innovatively made. Thus, it can be concluded that teachers should be able to maintain their professionalism in performing their daily duties and obligations.

Information Problem Solving

Today’s students must think critically and analyze and synthesize information so that they can recognize the technical, social, economic, political, and scientific problems of the information age. This chapter describes how the vast resources of the Internet can supply communication tools and information resources that facilitate the application of a robust set of instructional methodologies in the K-12 classroom to address these skills. The development of information literacy skills in today’s classrooms necessitates instructional approaches that address complex sets of learning objectives and focus on rich, multidisciplinary learning. The author maintains that Internet and information technologies provide tools and resources that enable teachers to create powerful learning environments for educating students for the information age using student-centered learning approaches, interactive communication with peers and experts, and collaborative, problem-solving methodologies.
