Academic didactics has started implementing pedagogic strategies that overcome the traditional frontal lecture to reach a new aim: supporting the learning process. According to the leading connectivism principles, which are revolutionizing education, learning processes are a complex and dynamic concept. On one side, new technologies are promoted to support the learners' “cold” cognition. On the other, strategies boasting a “hot” cognition are acquiring more and more importance. The student-teacher relationship is facing change: teachers are required to consolidate their profession and tutor the learning process, regardless of the field of study. These new strategies, although carried out reluctantly, have been successfully implemented in some action research projects highlighting the learners' engagement on one side and the professors' hesitation on the other. This chapter explores this phenomenon.

This case study of a student-staff partnership project to design assessments in a new undergraduate Law module, emphasises the importance of building trust and an equitable partnership before handing over the reins and enabling students to fully control an aspect of curriculum design. The case study focuses upon a model for partnership in module design with students as active partners in co-creation, having full control within clear boundaries. Outcomes include a positive impact for the student partners as it helped them to develop employability attributes from their involvement in the project, as well as giving them an understanding of the other side of the student-teacher relationship. The partnership also had a broader positive impact on the student community, by amplifying their voices and breaking down the power dynamic between staff and students to enable students to engage meaningfully with module design, which has led to further positive partnership working.

This paper tries to show a brief but profound view about new languages of communication introduced at school. On the one hand, the musical language included in the curriculo and the other hand the technological language spread in our society in order to transmit the importance of new technologies as well as the different posibilities that they offer to the teaching-learning process inside the educational area focusing on the musical educational one. Con este artículo se pretende dar una visión superficial, pero cargada de intencionalidad, sobre algunos de los nuevos lenguajes de comunicación que se han implantado en la escuela. Por un lado, el lenguaje musical recogido en el currículo y por otro, el lenguaje tecnológico extendido en nuestra sociedad. Se intenta transmitir la importancia que tienen las nuevas tecnologías, así como las diferentes posibilidades que ofrecen para el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje dentro del ámbito educativo, centrándonos de manera especial en el campo de la educación musical.

This research is a classroom action research that aims to improve science process skills in early childhood. Science process skills are children's abilities in thinking and investigating the natural environment around a series of learning processes. These skills are abilities that use reason, reason and effective and efficient actions to achieve certain results. With science process skills children can find facts that occur in their environment. Science process skills in group B children in PAUD Tashwirul Afkar are still low, therefore experimental methods are applied in the learning process to improve the condition. The results of applying experimental methods with natural materials can improve the science process skills of group B children in PAUD Tashwirul Afkar. This is indicated by an increase in the percentage of children's science process skills since the action was taken at the pre-cycle, cycle I and cycle II. At the pre-cycle completeness the overall value of the child is 33%. In the first cycle the overall value of the child is 58% and in the second cycle the overall value of the child is 91%.

From the researcher's experience in the field, many students were reluctant to ask for any clarification, unwilling to express their opinion, less able to give feedback, and did disruptive behaviors during the learning process. Ideally, students are expected to be active and involved in the learning process and to get good learning outcomes. This study is a Class Action Research (CAR), which attempts to improve students' activity and learning outcomes. The research was conducted through four main stages: planning, implementation, monitoring, evaluation and reflection. The research findings from teaching the names and responsibilities of angels through the classical method do not obtain maximum result. On the other hand, word guessing learning model shows better results than that of the classical one. In this model, students are motivated to compete with one another in making and answering the questions. The normally passive students are encouraged to participate actively in learning. Thus, it can be concluded that the learning process with of the game will improve students' learning outcomes

Learning methods play an important role and receive special attentions in our life. We live in digital era, where everyone wants something efficient, effective, dynamic, fast and interactive. The term ‘interactive’ appears in two distinct strands of educational research discourse: one concerning pedagogy and the other concerning new technologies in education. Teaching students with traditional method where there is only one way of communication is no longer effective. The word interactive is the key to have an effective and efficient teaching and learning process where the teacher can grab students’ attention and students can learn more in comparison to that of the traditional method.

The main objective of this research is to improve the ability of teachers in learning by implementing guidance by supervisors using zoommeeting. During the current covid-19 pandemic, there are still many learning processes that are disrupted so that the learning process is less effective so that the ability of teachers and students can decrease, therefore there is a need for guidance by supervisors who in this case use zoommeeting because it is still not possible for face-to-face meetings . The form of this research is school action research which aims to improve and develop the ability of teachers in the learning process. where the research was conducted in a kindergarten in Dumai City, the research subject was the teacher. The results showed that there was an increase that occurred after the coaching action for the teachers, it was evident from the percentage of coaching results with an 85% increase which was quite a large increase compared to the previous data. Then for the results of observing teacher activities in the first cycle, data was found to be 55% with a fairly good category, then in the second cycle, 80% data was found in the very good category. Looking at the data, it can be seen that the teacher's abilities and teacher skills have been improved after learning reflection is carried out in the form of coaching actions by supervisors.

The background of this research is the low ability of the students in writing the role play text, in which they can not pass the minimum mastery criterion (KKM). The type of the research is Classroom Action Research which is employed in two (2) cycles. The act of the teaching and learning process is done by using CTL approach. Each cycle is done by integrating some CTL components and observed by the observers. The steps of the research are planning, doing, observation and reflection. The data are qualitative and quantitative. Qualitative data are collected from the observation and filed note while the quantitative data are collected from the result of students performance test. The research resuts shows that there is an increasing of student’s activity during teaching and learning processes after finishing the first and the second cycles. Furthermore, there is an increasing of students achievement result in writing the role play text from 68,38 in pre-cycle, which indicates that  40% of the students passed the KKM. Furthermore, the students achievement increases into 73,75 on the first cycle in which 64 % of students passed the KKM. Moreover, the second cycle shows that the average students’ grade is 88,25. This  grade means that 100% of the students pass the minimum mastery criteria (KKM). Keywords: writing, role play text, contextual teaching approach

This article reports on a study that was carried out in autumn 2007 with students in a professional nurse education distance course at a Swedish university. The study aimed to develop a greater understanding of the student-teacher relationship based on research questions addressing the teachers’ role, the learning process, and the assessment process in traditional approaches to teaching and learning. A didactical design was adopted, focusing on three learning outcomes in three phases. In each of the three phases, these learning outcomes were assessed by each student documenting his/her knowledge at the beginning, middle, and end of the course. Data was collected via in-depth interviews with students (n = 14) and through a questionnaire (n = 40) and was analysed using an inductive thematic analysis of the material. The results indicate a student-teacher relationship involving ambiguity and complexity in relation to the degree of teacher direction as being teacher-centred or learner-centred and also in relation to the learning process as being reproductive or productive. The interpretation of the results shows diverse aspects of the student-teacher relationship arising from students’ beliefs about teaching, learning, and assessment and, in particular, process-based assessment. The locus of control involves the teachers’ role, the learning process, and the assessment process, which illuminates different perspectives of power relations in the student-teacher relationship.
