The workforce is becoming more diverse with the increasing number of mature workers delaying retirement and working beyond the legal retirement age. Retaining mature workers in organizations can be challenging. Training leaders and managers in diversity intelligence (DQ) has the potential to lead to better and more effective supervision of diverse employees. Competent and skilled managers and leaders who are trained in DQ will be more able to help in the attracting, retaining, and balancing mature workers. The chapter proposes using the three learning processes of enactive, iconic, and symbolic from Bruner's discovery learning theory to teach leaders and managers DQ. The learning outcome is that managers will become mentors and coaches who are equipped to use goal-oriented and transformative processes to supervise the independent, motivated, and proactive adult workers.

Legal Retirement Age

This paper identifies, within companies’ sectors of activity, predictors of Human Resource (HR) policies to extend working life (EWL) in light of increasing policy efforts at the European level to extend working life. Three types of EWL practices are investigated: the prevention of early retirement (i.e., encouraging employees to continue working until the legal retirement age); delay of retirement (i.e., encouraging employees to continue working beyond the legal retirement age); and, recruitment of employees who are already retired (i.e., unretirement). A sample of 4624 European organizations that was stratified by size and sector is analyzed in six countries. The main drivers for companies’ EWL practices are the implementation of measures for older workers to improve their performance, their working conditions, and to reduce costs. In industry, the qualities and skills of older workers could be more valued than in other sectors, while the adoption of EWL practices might be less affected by external economic and labor market factors in the public sector. Dutch and Italian employers may be less prone than others to extend working lives. These results underline the importance of raising employers’ awareness and increase their actions to extend employees’ working lives by adopting age management initiatives, especially in SMEs, and in the services and public sectors.

Abstract. In an effort to provide an understanding of GIS to students through discovery learning, teachers can take advantage of information and communication technology (ICT), Text-books (Students' Books and Teachers' Books ), as well as student worksheet (LKS) as learning resourceS. Therefore, the objective of this research is the application of the discovery model of learning in improving the understanding of the Geographical Information System in SMA Negeri 1 Subang. This research used descriptive method and observation technique for data collection which referred to the work stages in geographic information systems. The result showed that the application of discovery learning learning model in teaching the utilization of GIS for inventory of natural resources and development planning can facilitate the students in studying and under-standing the materials in depth. This can be seen from the students’ learning outcome in the form of paper writing and daily test scores. Based on the papers that have been collected, it was found that they were able to observe and identify the data that would be needed to form a GIS database and during the learning process, most of the students were active, creative, and enthusiastic in learning the materials. The results also suggest that the teacher is expected to continue to im-prove their competence, especially pedagogical, so that teachers can develop strategies, ap-proaches, models, methods, and techniques of active learning, creative and innovative, so that learning becomes meaningful and fun and learning objectives can be achieved well and satisfac-tory.Abstrak. Dalam upaya memberikan pemahaman SIG kepada siswa melalui discovery learn-ing, guru dapat memanfaatkan teknologi informasi dan komunikasi (TIK), Buku Teks (Buku Siswa dan Buku Guru), serta lembar kerja siswa (LKS) sebagai sumber belajar. Oleh karena itu tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah penerapan model discovery learning dalam meningkatkan pemahaman sistem informasi geografis pada siswa SMA Negeri 1 Subang. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode desktiptif dengan menggunakan teknik observasi dalam pengumpulan data dan mengacu pada tahapan Kerja dalam Sistem Informasi Geografis. Dapun hasilnya diketahui Penerapan model pembelajaran Discovery Learning dalam materi pemanfaatan SIG untuk inventarisasi sumber daya alam dan perencanaan pembangunan dapat memudahkan siswa dalam mempelajari dan memahami materi tersebut secara mendalam. Hal ini dapat terlihat dari perolehan hasil belajar siswa dalam bentuk karya tulis dan nilai ulangan harian dimana siswa. Berdasarkan kar-ya tulis yang telah dikumpulkan, dapat diketahui bahwa mereka mampu untuk melakukan ob-servasi dan identifikasi data yang akan dibutuhkan dalam membentuk basis data SIG. dan selama proses pembelajaran berlangsung, sebagian besar siswa terlihat aktif, kreatif, dan antusias da-lam mempelajari materi pemanfaatan SIG. Sedangkan saran yang dapat diajukan adalah Guru diharapkan terus meningkatkan kompetensinya, terutama kompetensi pedagogik, sehingga guu dapat menyusun strategi, pendekatan, model, metode, dan teknik pembelajaran yang aktif, kreatif, dan inovatif, sehingga proses pembelajaran menjadi bermakna dan menyenangkan serta tujuan pembelajaran dapat tercapai dengan baik dan memuaskan.

<p><em>Discovery learning model encourages learners to find new knowledge and to look for the solution of problems or odd situations. The model provides an opportunity for students to actively participate in building knowledge that they would gain during learning. The research aims to improve student's cognitive learning outcome and activities through discovery learning model in the subject of the Structure and Function of Plant Tissues in SMP Negeri (Public Junior High School) 4 Ternate. The research is a classroom action research in the academic year of 2018/2019. The action research is conducted in two cycles. The research result indicates that the application of discovery learning model could improve the cognitive learning outcome and learning activities among students at class VIII-4 of SMP Negeri 4 Kota Ternate in the subject of the Structure and Function of Plant Tissues. </em></p>

The development of Newton's Law of Motion courseware multimedia is based on the problem analysis from the diagnostic test students enrolled in the course of Physics 1. This courseware is developed based on the ASSURE model by using computer equipment and authoring software: Macromedia Authorware 7.0, Macromedia Flash MX 2004 and Abode Photoshop 6.5. The design of this courseware is based on Gagne’s teaching model and learning theory: Behaviorism, Cognitive, and Constructivism. The findings of the development multimedia courseware are discussed in terms of design for teaching and learning Physics 1. The study of design and development of multimedia courseware is important in order to improve the effectiveness of teaching and learning processes as well as to increase the collection of multimedia learning materials.
