Insufficient Knowledge

Are pre-service teachers well prepared to teach elementary school arithmetic? It Seems that the evidence needed to answer this question reasonably should be taken from many sources. One of these sources would be a study of pre-service teachers' knowledge of arithmetic. Fulkerson has provided some evidence regarding this. He concluded from his study “ … that far too many of the 158 prospective elementary teachers studied herein have an insufficient. knowledge of arithmetic to teach the subject effectively.”1

The implementation of this research was motivated by a lack of activity and student participation in lectures on elementary school social studies. Students tend to be silent without showing activity during lectures. This is certainly far from what is expected that in the lecture students should ideally participate actively in asking, answering, recording the essence of the lecture, presenting, and concluding the lecture material. The subject of the study was a student of the 2017 B class, which numbered 39 people. The formulation of the problem in this study is whether the application of effective discussion methods to increase the activeness of FKIP UNRI PGSD students in elementary school social studies. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the application of the discussion method in elementary school social studies lectures at the FKIP UNRI PGSD students. This type of research is descriptive with qualitative methods. Data collection techniques are observation and interview techniques. Based on the research data analysis shows that the activeness indicators ask questions, from the four active student meetings an average of 22 people 56. people (61.53%) and Activity Indicators present 26 people (66.66%).41%, indicators respond to questions or opinions, active students 22 people 56.41%, Activity Indicators discuss and work together active students 26 people (66.66%), Activity Indicators write material and summarize active student material 24  Based on the data that has been obtained, it can be concluded that the application of the discussion method in elementary school social studies lectures on PGSD students at FKIP UNRI effectively increases student activeness.

Object Of Study

This research is motivated by the lack of interest of teachers in the use of props in the process of learning mathematics in elementary school. In accordance with the demands of the curriculum in 2013 and supported by the developed learning theory, learning mathematics is abstract object of study, students need an intermediary that props math-ematics, so that students can more easily understand the concepts that will be pre-sented, and in the end it can deliver students to solve mathematical problems, not only that proposed by the teacher but also the problems in life. The purpose of this study was to determine the interest of prospective elementary teachers on the use of props mathematics after getting lectures media and elementary mathematics learning model. By knowing the interest of prospective elementary teachers will be developed further realization of the state of the subject being studied. The method used is descriptive research, then the instruments used were questionnaires and interviews. The results of this study stated that the interest of prospective elementary teachers on the use of props after attending lectures media and elementary mathematics learning model is high over-all with a percentage of 76.70%.Keywords : Interest, Props Mathematics

The Past

Events in the past ten years have made it necessary and desirable for colleges and universities to increase their course requirements in mathematics for elementary school teachers. There has been little or no opposition to this trend except as one finds it in individual colleges when there is a proposal to change course requirements. In mathematics the change has been in the direction of doubling or trebling the number of credits in mathematics required of prospective elementary teachers.

Elementary School Mathematics

Colleges and Universities have the responsibility of training prospective elementary teachers in the teaching of elementary mathematics. These teachers must be trained so that they can teach elementary school mathematics for meaning and understanding. In addition to training prospective elementary school teachers, the colleges and universities also have the responsibility of acquainting teachers in-service with the “newer” approach in teaching elementary mathematics. In this article, I will use “elementary teachers” as including both groups.

This research is a classroom action research that aims to improve the ability of teachers to apply the problem centered learning model of learning in the Elementary School 187/ X Bangun Karya, Academic Year 2019/2020. The subject of this study was a teacher at 187 / X Bangun Karya Elementary School, Rantau Rasau District, Tanjung Jabung Timur District, Jambi Province. This class action research was carried out in two cycles, each cycle consisting of two meetings. The results of the evaluation are converted into a recapitulation table of the results of cycle I. The conversion results state that the research has not yet reached the target, it needs to be continued with cycle II. The results of observers in the implementation phase of the second cycle showed that all parts of the learning activities were going well, so that there were no more parts of the learning activities that needed to be improved. While the results of the second cycle are converted with the results of the recapitulation table states that the study has reached the target limit of completeness criteria in the first cycle that is equal to 50% and an average of 68.7 in the initial conditions of improvement in the second cycle completeness criteria to be 100% and the average namely 91.7 states that the Focus Group Discission can improve the ability of teachers to apply the Problem Centered Learning learning model in learning in 187 / X Public Elementary School Build Work Year 2019/2020.

Making Sense

AbstractMathematics discussions are important for helping students to develop conceptual understanding and to learn disciplinary norms and practices. In recent years, there has been increased attention to teaching prospective teachers to lead discussions with students. This paper examines the possibilities of designing a formative assessment that gathers information about prospective elementary teachers’ skills with leading problem-based mathematics discussions and makes sense of such information. A decomposition of the practice of leading discussions was developed and used to design the assessment. Nine first-year teachers who graduated from a range of different teacher education programs participated in the study. The findings reveal that our formative assessment works to gather information about teachers’ capabilities with leading discussions and that the associated tools support making sense of the information gathered. This suggests that such tools could be useful to support the formative assessment of the developing capabilities of prospective teachers.

The purpose of this study was to investigate to what extent school nurses in Sweden inform adolescent men about testicular cancer (TC) and testicular self-examination (TSE). A questionnaire was completed by 129 school nurses from 29 randomly selected municipalities. All respondents were women, with a mean age of 42 years. The results showed that about 6% of the school nurses had provided information on TC and 9% on TSE; however, the majority was open to presenting such information. The major reason reported for not providing this guidance was insufficient knowledge about the subject. The nurses who had given information were knowledgeable about both TC and TSE and more often informed young men about TC and TSE, whereas those who had only received information about TC were not as likely to provide information about TC or TSE. The results of this study highlight the need to educate school nurses about TC and TSE so they can include this information in their health teaching to adolescent males.
