In their daily lives children are showered with information presented in the form of schedules. tables, checklists, and charts that can be very puzzling unless the children have specific skills for interpreting the communications. Some materials come to children in no special order and may appear haphazard; the children then need to arrange the data in ways that show some pattern or format. Other materials may come arranged in some order, but children frequently do not know how to interpret the data that is provided.

We live in a society in which mobile and digital technologies are increasingly present in our daily lives and we cannot limit ourselves to knowing how to use them. It is important to know how to adapt them, personalize them and program them, if necessary, to solve our problems. Computational thinking is understood as the human ability to teach, humans or machines, to solve problems with the fundamentals of computing. Its development has gained space in education, formal and non-formal, through face-to-face practices. With the pandemic, the challenge arises to develop this skill with young people from high school in a public educational institution through online practices. In this article, we discuss the didactic design, based on the principles of online education, created for the development of computational thinking with online practices. The preliminary results indicate the feasibility of developing computational thinking from the perspective of online education.

It is important to know how people with a schizophrenic disorder experience their cognitive vulnerability and how that experience affects their daily lives. Rehabilitation, as we understand it, has the aim of stimulating patients to make the best use of their residual capacities, especially in dealing with social complexity. Unfortunately, the rehabilitation approach in psychiatry still lacks a firm scientific basis. Strong links need to be developed between the practice of rehabilitation and theories of basic cognitive and behavioural dysfunction in schizophrenic patients (Watts & Bennett, 1983). It is a prerequisite that the subjective experiences of patients are included in this endeavour: schizophrenia is an ‘I am’ illness (Estroff, 1989).

Why are we learning this? Why do we have to know how to do this? When are we ever going to use this outside of class?” Do these questions sound familiar to you? Students in mathematics classes commonly ask these questions when they are unable to make connections between what they are learning in the classroom and their daily lives. This article discusses the importance of relating mathematics to students' everyday lives. When children make connections between the real world and mathematical concepts, mathematics becomes relevant to them. As mathematics becomes relevant, students become more motivated to learn and more interested in the learning process. This article describes a journal-writing project developed in a fifth-grade total-inclusion classroom and specifies the major features of the writing project, including the framework used to assess student learning.

Along with the development of science and technology, more and more types of manufactured goods produced to meet our needs we need to know that among these materials there are dangerous or toxic, therefore it is very important for us to know the type, nature, usefulness, as well as the dangers of every chemical that we use at home As we know, all kinds of objects that are around us are actual material, all material consists of chemicals but, in our daily lives we commonly use the term material instead of chemicals. Clothing that we use every day will be prone to stains so it is important to know how to remove stubborn stains on clothes. It would be very inconvenient if the clothes worn are dirty and not beautiful to the eye. There are many types of stains, ranging from dirty sweat, blood, residual makeup, black spots caused by fungus, to stains from the outside such as stains caused by rust, paint, oil, ink or spills of food and drinks. If you use the wrong method to remove these stains, it is not uncommon for us to find difficulties and can even be fatal as they get dirty. Each type of stain has a different treatment, depending on the nature of the stain. Bleach is now available as a solution to the problem of stains on these clothes.

The problem of mental disorders in Indonesia is still very high, the prevalence is increasing from year to year. The family as a caregiver plays a very important role in assisting people with mental disorders and living their daily lives. The purpose of this study was to find out more about family psychoeducation in caring for clients with mental disorders. The article search method used PubMed, Research Gate, and Google Scholer, then 9 articles were found according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and then a review was carried out. The results of this study indicate that providing psychoeducation is indeed proven to significantly increase knowledge and skills in caring for people with mental disorders. Based on 9 articles that have been found that one of the interventions that can be done is to empower people with mental disorders, the form is family empowerment, providing psychoeducation that aims to provide information to families to improve their skills in caring for family members with mental disorders. It is hoped that the family will have positive coping with the stress and burden they experience when they are provided with adequate information about the care of people with schizophrenia. The related opinion is that the majority of the community towards people with mental disorders are still very low and they do not know how to treat or with symptoms that often appear so that family empowerment methods are needed through psychoeducation. Family psychoeducation interventions affect increasing knowledge and skills in caring for people with mental disorders.ABSTRAKMasalah gangguan jiwa di Indonesia masih sangat tinggi prevalensinya meningkat dari tahun ke tahun.

Computers, smartphones, smart systems, and other technologies are woven into nearly every aspect of our daily lives. As computational technology advances, it is imperative that we educate young people and working adults to thrive in a computational world. In this context, the essential question for American education is: In a computational world, what is important to know and know how to do? This paper argues that computational thinking is both central to computer science and widely applicable throughout education and the workforce. It is a skillset for solving complex problems, a way to learn topics in any discipline, and a necessity for fully participating in a computational world. The paper concludes with recommendations for integrating computational thinking across K-12 curriculum.
