One of the most important contributing factor to PISA result in Indonesia is teachers who have direct contact with students. Therefore, teacher trainings in higher education must prepare their students so that they have good ability to understand and solve PISA test. In order to do it, a thorough study of students’ difficulties is needed so that an effective method can be chosen to support them. The current study aims to investigate students in mathematics education program to determine their difficulties in solving PISA’s mathematics problem. This is a descriptive qualitative research involving 20 students of mathematics education, Universitas Ahmad Dahlan. Data were collected by using PISA instruments to determined students’ difficulties and was quantitatively and qualitatively analyzed by based on PISA’s framework. The result shows that students shows a good performance on problems with interpretation process, but in the formulation process and employment process, they are still experiencing many difficulties. Good performance is also found in problems with individual and social contexts. However, on problems related to work and scientific context, students do not perform well enough in understanding and solving the problems

Abstract. This study is a classroom action research. The purpose of this research is (1) to describe the application of problem solving method in improving mathematics problem solving students of mathematics education program of Catholic University of Santo Thomas North Sumatera and (2) to describe the improvement of mathematics problem solving ability of mathematics education student in Algebra and Trigonometry. The result of this research shows that the result of problem solving test of mathematics cycle I is students who do not have problem solving ability as much as 3 people (30%), while students have math problem solving ability as much as 7 people (70%) and percentage of observation sheet lecturer activity amounted to 70.90%. Based on the result of math problem solving test in cycle 2, there were 1 (10%) students who did not have the ability to solve mathematics problem, while the students who have problem solving ability 9 students (90%) and lecturer activity percentage of 85.50% experienced an increase from cycle I of 6.5%. Based on the results of this acquisition then the group (classical) can be said that students have the ability to solve problems in Algebra and Trigonometry courses and increase problem-solving abilities by 20%. Keywords: problem solving method and problem solving ability.

Mathematics teacher candidates are required to have both expertise and communication skills. Therefore, they should have a good imagery model. The present study is a descriptive qualitative research  that involved the students of mathematics education program, FKIP, Universitas PGRI Madiun. The result shows there are 10 models of rational-irrational function graphs that are proposed by the candidates of mathematics teacher involved in the present study.. Mathematics lectures should enrich learning activities and materials to stimulate and develop students' capability in devising the graphs of rational-irrational functions.

  The aim of this study is to examine the current research trends in graduate theses on preschool inclusion in Turkey. Document analysis technique, one of the qualitative research methods, was used in the research. It was carried out on 31 graduate theses, which were obtained as a result of scanning the thesis archive of the Higher Education Council (YÖK) and were open to access between 2016 to 2020. The search was carried out by typing "pre-school integration" into the search engine of the Higher Education Institution's thesis archive. The theses included in the study were analyzed using the thesis analysis form prepared beforehand by the researchers. In the prepared form, the theses were analyzed according to the year, thesis level, university, institute, department, thesis supervisor title, research model, number of participants, data collection tool, data analysis method, and domestic and foreign references. The findings obtained within the framework of the examination were interpreted with percentage and frequency tables, and recommendations were made for future research.

Dissertation Process

In this paper, I focus on the process of building a dissertation that honored the Black souls of my undergraduate participants along with my own Black soul as a form of resistance to advance racial equity in higher education. Through endarkened narrative inquiry, this paper will address the internal tensions I navigated in building a dissertation that centered Blackness through the prism of what I have conceptualized as Black Finesse. I unveil components from my dissertation that manifested a shift in how knowledge generation can be developed and written. I conceptualized a methodology entitled race-grounded phenomenology (RGP) and call for a re-imagining of qualitative research around the ways Black students navigate higher education. I reflected upon the internal tensions and mental leaps of my dissertation process through theoretical decolonial inquiry. As decolonial praxis to unmake the canon of research and dissertation creation, I lean upon four elements of decolonizing higher education as a way to reimagine decolonial futures that were actualized via my dissertation process.

Narrative Literature Review

The Entrepreneurship Education Program (EEPs) of Indonesia’s higher education has not been effective. The study aims to identify the extent to which EEPs in Indonesia was developed and propose several alternative schemes. The research uses the methodology of traditional narrative literature review and interviews with young entrepreneurs as the output of the EEPs higher education program in Indonesia. The analysis technique is done with an interactive model with steps of data collection, data reduction, data presentation, verification, and conclusions.  The literature study is intended for the latest research information that evaluates the effect of EEPs on the formation of EM and the formation of new entrepreneurs. Furthermore, the information is verified by the results of the interview data processing. Entrepreneurship education for multidisciplinary students, business incubators, funding provision, and program sustainability studies is the result of research as a proposal for the development of higher education EEPs. This program is part of a long-term solution to addressing labor problems in Indonesia.

Mass media workers have a good ability to convey ideas to be enjoyed by a wide and heterogeneous audience. Their talents and interests are not arbitrary. They have taken special education in college and graduated with a related bachelor's degree. However, their intellectual abilities are not accompanied by the ability to appreciate and reward themselves, which should deserve a decent income or a comfortable working environment. In the name of capitalism which was finally realized in the form of alienation, they carried out the work with great pride even though it was apparent. This study uses qualitative research methods by collecting data through interviews of one of the televisions workers. Based on the research results, it is clearly illustrated how the mass media workers consider that completely devoting themselves to companies that have provided opportunities and income is something that is worth doing. Moreover, there is special pride when they are able to contribute in providing education and information to the wider community. This confirms false awareness that arises from a mass media worker.   Kata Kunci: Buruh Kreatif Media massa, Ekonomi Politik Media, Kapitalisme, Alienasi

This article aims to analyze the National Education Program on Agrarian Reform - PRONERA - as a higher education program that aims at inclusion at this level of education, but that finds resistance in the characteristics of a system that does not allow everyone access to education. This program is identified as State policy that has been maintained for 21 years, through clashes, struggles and demands, in opposition to the logic of plastered rural education, and proposes an emancipating, decolonizing education. The research is of bibliographic and documentary nature and, to subsidize the analyzes made, we resort to authors who reflect on the land struggle and agrarian reform, Rural Education, Alternation Pedagogy, Higher Education, in order to dialogue with Mészaros and Demir on the structural crisis of capital and its implications for rural education, with a focus on PRONERA. It is concluded that the inclusion policies made possible the development of PRONERA, but they maintain the neoliberal logic as structuring of this Program that, having as mentor an ultra-neoliberal government, has its principles shaken by the lack of resources and the prioritization of a privatized and meritocratic.
