Our nation and state today are going through a difficult period in their life and survival, because the moral principles and values, the principles of democracy, in particular the human principles of mutual respect, respect and empathy for each other, have been damaged. The causes are certainly deeper, and researching, one concludes that the great nursery of democracy is education lags behind in terms of adhering to the principles of education and functional efficiency. The change of orientation of our education towards the inner world of man, the upliftment of the spiritual struggle, and cultivating from the inside out with the skills of emotional intelligence and consciousness will help citizens to reorient themselves and realize that they are part of a nation but at the same time citizens of a global community with broader perceptions, goals, and obligations. The revision of education programs and the introduction in education of emotional intelligence and consciousness will lay the foundations for the creation of a new generation of sensitized and conscious citizens.

Kant argues that an understanding of the relation between morality and rational agency reveals the nature of moral rightness. Moral principles give us reasons for acting apart from our feeling or preferences. They give us reasons that apply to all rational agents alike. Principles that embody such reasons conform to a categorical imperative that states a universal law for all rational agents. Against critics who contend that this universal law is too general to tell us anything useful about right and wrong, Kant argues that it requires us to treat rational agents as ends in themselves, not to be sacrificed simply for the sake of other people’s goals. This attitude of mutual respect among rational agents is the basis for a moral and social order that realizes human freedom.

Moses Blackman, or Morris Blackman as he came to be known by his friends, was South African by birth and arrived in England as a postgraduate research student in 1933. He made his home in England for the rest of his life. He was a solid-state physicist, primarily concerned with the development of lattice theory and its application to determine such properties as specific heats. For all but two years he spent his time at Imperial College, where he became heavily involved with the electron diffraction research group, which he eventually headed for over 20 years, following the departure of G. P. Thomson, the son of J. J. Thomson, to become Master of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. He had worked very closely with G. P. Thomson, who recruited him as the department’s theoretical physicist, on a variety of different topics. They developed a most fruitful collaboration, based upon a healthy mutual respect for each other’s ability coupled with enthusiasm and devotion to physics. Blackman easily had his interest aroused in any branch of physics, and he found him self acting as a theoretical adviser to numerous of his colleagues in the Physics Department of Imperial College. This applied particularly to the period up to the late 1950s, by which time the expansion of the department allowed a new generation of theoretical physicists to be recruited.

AbstractShortcomings in current science outreach contribute to a disconnection between science and society; prompting new requirements in thinking about what science outreach is and how it is planned and implemented. It is proposed here that central to successful outreach should be focus on identifying and communicating value in, and the relevance of, science; rather than necessarily attempting to inspire interest in, or understanding of science. This, coupled to world coordinated identification of key science outreach directives, messages and plans point to more effective science outreach relevant to the global community.

The role of axiological approach in the training of new generation teachers is theoretically substantiated in this article. The axiological approach makes it possible to identify a set of priority values in the education, upbringing and self-development of a person in modern society and to design their reflection in the norms and aims of future teachers in the process of psychological and pedagogical training. Possible ways of implementing an axiological approach in the educational process of higher education institutions are outlined, such as: the identification of value orientations of higher education applicants, with further adjustment regarding ethical positions in psychological and pedagogical activity; informing students of higher education about value orientations and identification of the most important ones in teaching the cycle of psychological and pedagogical disciplines; adaptation of higher education students to the system of professional value orientations through educational, practically-oriented, independent activity and interaction with teachers as carriers of moral principles and others. Thus, 45.83% of respondents found: having ethical knowledge about generally accepted norms and principles of pedagogical morality; mastering the basic requirements of pedagogical ethics; ability to act positively according to moral choice; the need to work independently to improve themselves and improve their moral qualities.

Many students experience emotional intelligence problems. This is seen in students who prefer to disturb their friends during the learning process, are angry with the teacher when given advice. Many also cannot regulate their moods like often shouting in class, so they cannot control their emotions when they are angry and upset both at their friends and their teachers. The application of the Teams Games Tournament (TGT) is expected to increase children's emotional intelligence, therefore this study aims to determine the increase in emotional intelligence using the application of the Teams Games Tournament (TGT) in fifth grade students of SD Muhammadiyah Ambarketawang 2. This research was included in a class action research consisting of two cycles. The subject of this study was fifth grade students of Muhammadiyah Ambarketawang Elementary School 2. The object of this research was SD Muhammadiyah Ambarketawang 2. This data collection technique was in the form of observation, questionnaires, and documentation. Data analysis used qualitative and quantitative analysis. The results showed that there was an increase in children's emotional intelligence using the Teams Games Tournament (TGT) method. Increased emotional intelligence can be seen from the acquisition of the pretest percentage score of 43.75%, after the action results of the percentage score of the first cycle to 68.75%, while the results of the percentage cycle II score to 81.25% included in the excellent category. Students can understand and be able to manage emotions well, there is mutual respect between friends, there is an increase in motivation in students, and students can establish good relations with others.

Emotional, social and cognitive intelligence When Emotional, Social and Cognitive Intelligences are used to manage one-self as a day to day practice, this will transcend in to all aspects of one‘s life. Most people operate based on their emotions, and in those irrational thoughts, irrational decisions are made and that can be detrimental to all involved. Many theorists in the past have discussed emotions and social and cognitive intelligence, and one of those theories are Emotional Intelligence (EI). According to Psychologytoday.com "Emotional intelligence refers to the ability to identify and manage one's own emotions, as well as the emotions of others". When it is used on a frequent basis to manage life in an organic way it will make the work environment more harmonious, there will be mutual respect if each person has self-respect first. Values are individual, but virtues transcend through all, and all can relate to the them. Virtues meaning Love, Peace, Happiness, etc. All human beings want these basic qualities in their lives. In expanding further, Carl Jung was a theorist who created 4 stages of Life and they are the athlete, the warrior, the statement, and the spirit. When one can understand the four stages in Life, one can be successful in living a life to its full potential in this era. This study will take us through the 4 stages of Life and how to use Emotional, Social and Cognitive Intelligence and other methods in every aspect of life.

The Future

Indonesia, as the plural nation in religion, has already performed a positive and peaceful life of the religious people who are different in faith and understanding. In general, the life of religious people in Indonesia is lasting well and peacefully. It does not mean that there never be religious conflicts of the different religious people in Indonesia. The conflicts had ever occurred and will probably emerge in the future. The conflicts were often seen as threat, or negativity, of religious life among different-religious people in Indonesia. The writing does not deny that indeed the conflicts are not wanted and have to be overcome. But since the conflicts cannot be avoided from the life of different-religious people of Indonesia, the writing philosophically intend to see and understand the conflicts in a different way. The religious conflicts can be positively seen and understood, that is, as part of communication among different-religious people interacting in public sphere. Conflict-resolution that gives the win-win solution for those who are involved in the conflict has to be principle that should be made to be tradition. Conflict resolution will be successful if the transcendently moral principles, such as mutual respect, mutually avoiding deformation of religion, and mutually giving freedom, are provided for all. [Indonesia sebagai negara yang majemuk dalam agama telah menampilkan wajah hidup umat beragama dari agama-agama yang berbeda yang damai. Secara umum, kehidupan umat beragama di Indonesia berjalan dengan penuh kedamaian. Ini bukan berarti tidak pernah ada konflik keagamaan di Indonesia. Konflik-konflik keagamaan telah pernah terjadi dan mungkin akan muncul kembali di masa depan. Konflik-konflik ini sering dilihat sebagai suatu ancaman atau sisi negatif dari kehidupan religius di Indonesia. Tulisan ini tidak memungkiri bahwa konflik-konflik ini memang tidak diinginkan dan harus diatasi. Namun, karena konflik-konflik ini tidak bisa dihindari dalam kehidupan antar umat beragama yang berbeda, tulisan ini mencoba secara filosofis melihat dan memaknai konflik-konflik ini secara berbeda. Konflik-konflik keagamaan bisa dimaknai secara positif, sebagai bagian dari komunikasi antara umat beragama yang berbeda yang berinteraksi dalam ruang publik. Resolusi konflik yang saling memenangkan masing-masing pihak harus menjadi prinsip yang harus ditradisikan. Resolusi konflik akan sukses, jika prinsip-prinsip moral transenden, seperti saling menghargai, saling menghindari deformasi agama, dan saling memberi ruang kebebasan, diberikan untuk semuanya.]

Sustainable consumerism is a topic that is still being explored and developed across nations and countries. A new generation of consumers and the world’s future leaders—Generation Z—have already begun to change the marketing and consumer landscape and have accelerated the means to achieve sustainable development. Meanwhile, the Egyptian Generation Z remains unexplored and ambiguous. The purpose of this article is to gain an understanding of the behavioral aspects of the Egyptian Generation Z, their consumerism, ecological consciousness, and corporate expectations. This exploratory research adopted qualitative methods using in-depth semi-structured interviews with a selected sample of participants representing the Egyptian Generation Z. The findings reveal an infantile but informed and reactive market of consumers whose acts of marketing and branding decisions contribute to reaching corporate sustainability, despite the fact they are viewed as nescient in the broader global community. This research provides the first evidence on the Egyptian Generation Z and their behavior towards sustainable consumerism in a new context of developing countries.

In this article education is presented as one of the important tools for the reconstruction of the South African society after the demise of apartheid. The kind of education that, in my opinion, will effectively achieve the reconstruction objective, is what I prefer to term “education for reconstruction”. The construct: Education for reconstruction is further developed. It is postulated  that Ubuntu Education is the kind of education that will make the grade in the drive to achieve the goal of reconstruction. I focus on the best I believe  the envisaged Ubuntu education can bring about.  I recommend Ubuntu education which is presented as the promoter of interdependence, loving relationships, caring, mutual respect and commitment. The relation  between Ubuntu and the Biblical social values is highligted and the importance thereof for education, indicated. I conclude by urging those who are responsible for the education of the country’s youth not to divorce education from responsibility.  I subsequently express the conviction that, if used correctly, Ubuntu education will facilitate the smooth integration of young people into the community, church, industry and the global community.
