This paper discusses three types of active teaching and learning methodologies: problem-based learning, problem-posing, and case method. It is a comparison between their theoretical foundations and their practices, based on a literature review. The goal is to differentiate these types of active methodologies so that educators can plan, implement and properly evaluate their uses. The results of the literature review and the comparison show, despite several similarities, important differences between these three types of active methodologies, such as: its origins and theoretical references, the construction of problems or cases, the driving and the place where the studies take place, the elaboration of hypotheses and the application of the results, among others. As future work, it is suggested that such comparisons be extended to other types of active methodologies, such as project-based learning, which is sometimes confused with the ones here studied.

Masalah dalam penelitian ini adalah rendahnya kemampuan berpikir kritis mahasiswa pada mata kuliah kewirausahaan tingkat II di Program Studi Pendidikan Ekonomi FKIP Universitas Kuningan. Rendahnya kemampuan berpikir kritis tersebut ditunjukkan dengan masih banyaknya mahasiswa yang hanya menguasai salah satu aspek pembelajaran pada ruang lingkup kemampuan berpikir tingkat rendah yaitu berkisar pada aspek mengingat atau menghafal. Selain itu, makalah atau tugas-tugas yang dibuat mahasiswa kebanyakan hanya copy paste dari modul atau buku yang sudah ada dan jarang sekali menggambarkan hasil pemikiran mahasiswa sendiri sebagai indikator kemampuan mahasiswa dalam berpikir kritis. Kebanyakan mahasiswa juga masih merasa kesulitan mengaitkan konsep dengan kondisi yang ada di lingkungan nyata. Kondisi semacam ini terjadi akibat dari proses perkuliahan yang hanya berjalan satu arah. Dengan banyak permasalahan-permasalahan yang muncul, perlu adanya pembaharuan di lingkungan pendidikan yang mengarahkan pembelajaran agar mahasiswa memiliki kemampuan berpikir kritis.Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mendeskripsikan perbedaan kemampuan berpikir kritis mahasiswa pada pengukuran akhir (post-test), dan mendeskripsikan perbedaan peningkatan (gain) kemampuan berpikir kritis mahasiswa antara kelas eksperimen yang menggunakan metode PjBL dan kelas kontrol yang menggunakan metode PBL.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tidak terdapat perbedaan pada� pretest antara kelas eksperimen yang menggunakan metode PjBL dengan kelas kontrol yang menggunakan metode PBL. Sedangkan setelah pembelajaran terdapat perbedaan hasil posttest kemampuan berpikir kritis mahasiswa antara kelas eksperimen dengan kelas kontrol. Adapun terdapat perbedaan peningkatan kemampuan berpikir kritis mahasiswa antara kelas eksperimen yang menggunakan metode PjBL dengan kelas kontrol yang menggunakan metode PBL dapat dilihat dari nilai gain kelas eksperimen sebesar 0,65 dan kelas kontrol sebesar 0,60. Dari bukti diatas, dapat disimpulkan bahwa kedua metode tersebut yaitu PjBL dan PBL dapat dijadikan sebagai salah satu alternatif bagi dosen untuk meningkatkan dan mengembangkan kemampuan berpikir kritis mahasiswa.

This writing aims to help teachers to increase motivation, activity, creativity, and critical thinking of students in solving problems in class. The way to increase student motivation in learning in class is to choose the right learning model with ongoing learning material. One learning model that increases students' creativity and critical thinking in problem solving is a Problem Based Learning (PBL) learning model. To improve students' insights in order to easily solve problems there is a need to do tasks, if students do not do the task then they must accept the agreed upon consequences when making learning contracts, thus modifying the Problem Based Learning (PBL) learning model with task strategies and forced. The results of the modification of learning with the Problem Based Learning (PBL) learning model through forced and forced strategies are expected to improve the learning process so that students become more disciplined and do not waste time doing assignments. The advantages of modifying the Problem Based Learning (PBL) learning model with task and forced learning strategies are increasing student learning motivation, improving the quality of learning, training students' understanding by giving assignments continuously, teaching discipline to students in order to be accountable for tasks assigned, and reducing laziness in students.

This experimental study aimed at investigating the effect of Problem Based Learning (PBL) and self-assessment (SA) on students’ writing competency and self-regulated learning in Tabanan Regency. This research applied 2x2 factorial design. 96 students were selected as sample through random sampling. Data were collected by test (writing competency) and questionnaire (self-regulation). Students’ writings were scored by analytical scoring rubric. The obtained data were analyzed statistically by MANOVA at 5% significance level. This research discovers: 1) there is a significant effect of PBL which occurs simultaneously and separately on students’ writing competency and self-regulated learning, 2) there is a significant effect of SA which ocurs simultaneously and separately on students’ writing competency and self-regulated learning, 3) there is a significant interaction between teaching model and assessment type on students’ writing competency and self-regulated learning which occurs simultaneously, 4) there is no significant interaction between teaching model and assessment type on students’ writing competency, and 5) there is a significant interaction between teaching model and assessment type on students’ self-regulated learning. This research results implies that PBL and SA should be applied in instruction process as a way to improve the quality of students’ writing competency and self-regulated learning.

Рассмотрен опыт внедрения современных технологий очистки сточных вод на очистных сооружениях г. Москвы, описаны технологические схемы для сооружений разной производительности. С конца 1990-х годов Инженерно-технологическим центром АО «Мосводоканал» проводились работы по разработке и внедрению современных технологий очистки сточных вод с удалением биогенных элементов. Поскольку состав сточных вод имеет отличия на разных очистных сооружениях, не удается «перенести» зарубежные технологии без изменения и адаптации, а иногда требуется разработка технологии «с нуля». Более чем за 20-летний период осуществлено поэтапное внедрение современных технологий на московских очистных сооружениях Южного Бутова и Зеленограда, блока удаления биогенных элементов Люберецких очистных сооружений (БУБЭ ЛОС), нового блока Курьяновских очистных сооружений (НКОС). В настоящее время идет реконструкция ЛОС (старый и новый блоки), планируется реконструкция старого блока КОС, в процессе реконструкции находятся очистные сооружения Троицкого и Новомосковского административных округов (ТиНАО) г. Москвы. Опыт АО «Мосводоканал» был использован при разработке справочника наилучших доступных технологий ИТС 10-2015. Разнообразие технологических решений позволяет обеспечить нормативное качество очистки для условий разных сооружений. The experience of introducing advanced technologies for wastewater treatment at the wastewater treatment facilities in Moscow is considered; process flow schemes for the structures of different capacities are described. Since the late 1990s, the Engineering and Technology Center of Mosvodokanal JSC has been working on the development and introduction of advanced wastewater treatment technologies with the removal of nutrients. Since the composition of wastewater differs at different treatment facilities, it is not possible to "transfer" foreign technologies without correction and adaptation; moreover, sometimes the development of technology "from square one" is required. For more than 20 years, a stepwise introduction of advanced technologies has been carried out at the Moscow treatment facilities of South Butovo and Zelenograd, at the nutrients removal block at the Lyuberetskie wastewater treatment facilities, at the new block of the Kurianovskie Wastewater Treatment Facilities. At present, the reconstruction of the Lyuberetskie Wastewater Treatment Facilities (old and new blocks) is underway, the reconstruction of the old part of the Kurianovskie Wastewater Treatment Facilities is planned, the treatment facilities of the Troitsk and Novomoskovsk administrative districts in Moscow have been under upgrade. The experience of Mosvodokanal JSC was used in the development of an ITS 10-2015 reference book of the best available technologies. A variety of process solutions provides for ensuring the standard quality of effluent for the conditions of different facilities.
