The Covid-19 pandemic made a change in the learning process from offline to online. This has inevitable positive and negative effects from various aspects, such as learning objectives, students, educators, infrastructure, and the learning environment. All aspects of education that used to take place predominantly in schools are now all at home. Therefore, the key aspect of implementing education is now played by parents. But, the problem is, not all of parents have adequate knowledge about how to educate children and the psychological aspects that accompany it. The individual difference factor is the main aspect that determines children success in learning. This happens with the interaction between the accuracy of parental treatment that takes into account individual differences, thus making children motivated in learning. When the children’s learning motivation is good, the learning will take place effectively and make a meaningful contribution to the childs’ life. Thus, parents must strive for this achievement in order to get good results in children’s education even during the pandemic.

The background of the study is the OFF TV program at study hours, at 18.00 to 20.00 p.m at Sukoanyar Cerme Gresik. The study is oriented on describing the implemented OFF TV program. It also describes the effect of OFF TV program to promote children’s learning motivation. This study employs descriptive qualitative method. The data were collected through observation, interview, and documentation to dig information about the implementation of the OFF TV program and its effect on promoting children’s learning motivation. The object of the study is the OFF TV program, while the subject involves Sukoanyar residents who are currently studying in junior high school, and parents as the research data refinement. The data was analyzed using Miles and Huberman model, while triangulation technique and member check were used to test the validity. The result of the study showed that the OFF TV program implementation from 18.00 to 20.00 p.m can be applied all day to all residents in Sukoanyar village regulated by the Village Regulation No. 02 year 2016 with the aim of improving the human resources quality in Sukoanyar village. The result also showed the effect of the OFF TV program on promoting children’s learning motivation with some indicators. The first indicator is children feel happy with the OFF TV program because of the conducive environment for learning, the second indicator is they are more discipline in learning because there is special time to learning, the third is children can concentrate in learning, the fourth is they can study diligently, do their work freely without any interruption that can make them more serious and never give up.

In psychology, attachment is a strong emotional bond developed through interaction with children that have special meaning in his life. The study reveals that (1) the correlation between attachment of parents and students' self-efficacy was 33%. The influence of attachment of parents to self-efficacy was 10.9%, whereas 89.1% was influenced by other factors outside the model. (2) The correlation between self-efficacy and students' motivation to learn was 68.2%. The influence of self-efficacy on students' motivation to learn was 46.5%, whereas 53.5% was influenced by other factors outside the model. (3) partial correlation between attachment of parents and the motivation of children to learn was 45.3%. The influence of attachment of parents to motivate children to learn was partially by 20.6%, whereas 79.4% was influenced by other factors outside the model. There is interplay between attachments of parents on children's learning motivation enough. (4) Effect of attachment with parents to motivate children to learn through self-efficacy was 52.4%. This means that there is sufficient influence of attachment with parents to motivate children to learn through self-efficacy of students at MTs. Al-Ittihadiyah Canggu.

Major pandemics around the world have had a major impact on the health and economy as well as education. The government closed crowded places, offices and schools. School closures result in children in a situation and condition known as Stay At Home. The purpose of this research is to find out how the efforts of parents and teachers in maintaining children's learning motivation at home, and how the role of traditional games to increase children's learning motivation in facing Stay At Home situations. This research approach uses a phenomenological approach with descriptive qualitative research as research subjects, namely parents, teachers, and elementary school students in the city of Solok. After approximately eight months, the schools as research objects were closed so that students and teachers conducted learning at home so that teachers, with the guidance of parents, were able to create an active and creative atmosphere in teaching students not to feel bored and learning objectives were achieved, one of the efforts that do that is to keep playing around the house so that the child doesn't feel bored. Traditional games are an effective alternative to reduce the influence of gadgets.

AbstractThe corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and the restrictions to reduce the spread of the virus has had a large impact on daily life. We investigated the individual differences in the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic and first lockdown on optimism and meaning in life in a sample from the Netherlands Twin Register. Participants completed surveys before (N = 9964, Mean age: 48.2, SD = 14.4) and during the first months of the pandemic (i.e. April–May 2020, N = 17,464, Mean age: 44.6 SD = 14.8), with a subsample completing both surveys (N = 6461, Mean age T1: 48.8, SD = 14.5). We applied genetic covariance structure models to twin data to investigate changes in the genetic architecture of the outcome traits due to the pandemic and the interaction of genes with the environmental exposure. Although 56% and 35% of the sample was negatively affected by the pandemic in their optimism and meaning in life, many participants were stable (32% and 43%) or even showed increased optimism and meaning in life (11% and 22%). Subgroups, specifically women, higher educated people, and people with poorer health, experienced larger negative effects. During the first months of the pandemic, slightly lower heritability estimates for optimism and meaning in life (respectively 20% and 25%) were obtained compared to pre-pandemic (respectively 26% and 32%), although confidence intervals overlap. The lower than unity genetic correlations across time (.75 and .63) suggest gene-environment interactions, where the expression of genes that influence optimism and meaning in life differs before and during the pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic is a strong exposure that leads to imbalanced effects on the well-being of individuals. Some people decrease in well-being, while others get more optimistic and consider their lives as more meaningful during the pandemic. These differences are partly explained by individual differences in genetic sensitivity to extreme environmental change. More knowledge on the person-specific response to specific environmental variables underlying these individual differences is urgently needed to prevent further inequality.

In this chapter, we provide an overview of how conversations children have with their parents about events—both as they unfold and after they have occurred—can affect children’s memory for personal experiences. We begin with a discussion of the ways parents reminisce with their children about past experiences and the implications of individual differences in reminiscing styles for children’s developing event and autobiographical memory skills. Then we turn to consider how parent–child conversations as events unfold can influence understanding, encoding, and subsequent remembering. We conclude by drawing attention to potential multiplicative effects of different types of event talk for children’s learning and remembering, and how parent–child conversations during and after events may support children’s deliberate memory skills.

Radical constructivism is currently a major, if not the dominant, theoretical orientation in the mathematics education community, in relation to children's learning. There are, however, aspects of children's learning that are challenges to this perspective, and what appears to be “at least temporary states of intersubjectivity” (Cobb, Wood, & Yackel, 1991, p. 162) in the classroom is one such challenge. In this paper I discuss intersubjectivity and through it offer an examination of the limitations of the radical constructivist perspective. I suggest that the extension of radical constructivism toward a social constructivism, in an attempt to incorporate intersubjectivity, leads to an incoherent theory of learning. A comparison of Piaget's positioning of the individual in relation to social life with that of Vygotsky and his followers is offered, in support of the claim that radical constructivism does not offer enough as an explanation of children's learning of mathematics.
