This article investigates the efficacy of Digital Learning implementation in SFH policy from teachers' viewpoints. The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia in mid-March 2020 required the Government to take a decisive step in the form of Study from Home (SFH). The policy was aimed at preserving the quality of students' mental and psychological learning while socially and physically distancing. In this descriptive qualitative study, the interviews were conducted online with four teachers in various high schools in Bulukumba Regency, Indonesia. It was also supported by documents. This research found that teachers prefer to use WhatsApp and Google Classroom as the platforms to organize D-Learning. These applications are more comfortable to use, easy to access, and more familiar in their environment. Teachers perceive that D-Learning modifies the learning process so that it becomes more flexible. It also results in more autonomous learners. However, teachers are aware they are not yet ready to provide good technology-based material. They face difficulties in assessing students' progress from home. Students were also found to lack enthusiasm in responding to the learning content. Besides, inadequate facilities and infrastructure limit the students' access to D-Learning. As a result, D-Learning in SFH policy has not been effective for the students' cognitive and affective development and learning goals cannot be maximally achieved. Thus, it is suggested that the government support all efforts to adjust quickly to the D-Learning system's practice, such as by broadcasting more educational content through electronic media and publishing materials of pedagogical specialists for working in D-Learning environments.

The low quality of public services in Indonesia has long been a problem that people have always complained about. This is characterized by the complex and expensive price of services, as well as the difficulty of gaining access to public services. The need and demands for quality public services become the hope of the community is urgent to be met by the government. This is in line with the current globalization trend which is characterized by the rapid advancement of science and technology so that the world becomes limitless. Nowadays, people easily get access to information both through print and electronic media, so that people are more aware and aware of their rights in obtaining services. Bureaucratic leaders at various levels, must have the same understanding and awareness to realize shared vision through accuracy and ability to make changes, and continue to develop innovation and creativity and involve all components of bureaucracy in developing bureaucratic capacity to be able to improve the performance of public services. That to provide the best service to the community, it must meet the principles of public service implementation in accordance with the basic principles that become the basis of reference in organizing, reference work, and work assessment for each public service organizing institution

Since the early days of 2020, learning technologies have been tested by millions of students, teachers, and parents from all levels of education throughout the globe. Many educators discussed learning losses, inability of online learning to mimic real life learning environments, glitches in the technologies, or the boring interface of Zoom meetings. On the other hand, if the pandemic had happened 20-25 years ago, students would have completely lost touch with their peers and would have received no education for more than a year. In this issue, we have two very interesting articles that will guide us as we evaluate the value of digital learning. Both articles show that digital learning and new technologies have potential for advancing the quality of learning in our schools.

Abstract Personalized education—the systematic adaptation of instruction to individual learners—has been a long-striven goal. We review research on personalized education that has been conducted in the laboratory, in the classroom, and in digital learning environments. Across all learning environments, we find that personalization is most successful when relevant learner characteristics are measured repeatedly during the learning process and when these data are used to adapt instruction in a systematic way. Building on these observations, we propose a novel, dynamic framework of personalization that conceptualizes learners as dynamic entities that change during and in interaction with the instructional process. As these dynamics manifest on different timescales, so do the opportunities for instructional adaptations—ranging from setting appropriate learning goals at the macroscale to reacting to affective-motivational fluctuations at the microscale. We argue that instructional design needs to take these dynamics into account in order to adapt to a specific learner at a specific point in time. Finally, we provide some examples of successful, dynamic adaptations and discuss future directions that arise from a dynamic conceptualization of personalization.

According to the theory of moderate constructivism, learning processes contain a social dimension. In this context, a continuous feedback is essential for supporting (students’) learning. Especially, digital learning environments should offer ways to give and receive feedback, because they lack the possibilities of personal interaction. The pattern presented in this chapter captures a best practice on evaluating certain aspects of the learning process in regard to the learning content and learning atmosphere. Feedback on the content is given non-anonymously in a discussion forum, whereas the learning atmosphere is rated anonymously within a virtual learning environment. The pattern captures a specific, didactic driven method within a learning environment and is therefore particularly useful for lecturers who want to give and receive feedback on specific learning topics, and lecturers who want to gain an insight in their student’s learning emotions.

The Impact

Education is among the critical needs besides the food, shelter and clothing in modern life. Quality education is an effective tool for minimizing poverty and joblessness, enhancing health and dietary standards, and attaining lasting growth. Hence, the study sought to determine the impact of poverty on the quality of education in Haiti. The study was a literature review based. The conclusions were based on reviewing previous studies. The study findings indicated that poverty influences the quality of education. The study noted the significance of education in developing countries could not be overstated. Quality education can be the catalyst needed to pull families and communities out of the cycle of poverty. Knowledge gives children the power to dream of a better future and the confidence required to pursue a complete education, which will help generations to come. The study further ascertained that education makes a significant difference for adults, particularly in day-to-day life, including nutrition, healthcare and gender equity. The poverty levels are potent in influencing the quality of education that the students will receive in the long run. The study recommended adequate mechanisms to ensure the government support children from a poor background. Addressing the academic difficulties children from deprived families will undoubtedly need a broader and bolder method to education policy than the current initiatives to reform schools. The government should make sure that school-age children are enrolled right into compulsory and free primary education. Given that education is a powerful device for minimizing poverty and joblessness, enhancing health and dietary requirements, and attaining sustainable advancement, the Haitian government must inject much more revenue in the education sector, mainly for the poor children to obtain a quality education. The government is required to make sure all learners within its nation have access to education both in rural and in metropolitan places. Keywords: Poverty, Quality of Education, Haiti
