One underlying assumption of this paper should be stated at the outset in order that the development of the subject may be more readily followed, and in order that those who find themselves unable to agree with this assumption may at once reject any conclusions which may be drawn. That assumption is that arithmetic skills are worth acquiring because of their usefulness in life. Our hypothesis does not necessarily deny the existence of any disciplinary values in arithmetic, nor does it imply a quarrel with those who hold the “rich-present-life-for-the-child” theory of education. It merely insists that one reason for teaching the fundamental skills of arithmetic in the elementary school is that it is the duty of the school to contribute to the future social and civic usefulness and to the happiness, convenience and comfort of the individual by creating in him during the elementary school period the ability to perform accurately and with reasonable dispatch those arithmetical computations which life demands.

<p><em>Th</em><em>e research goals are to answer some questions related to the materials and the quality of hadits which are taught in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (Islamic Elementary School) and Madrasah Tsanawiyah (Islamic Junior high School). The text book of Quran and Hadits both schools are based on the curriculum 1988, it refers to the regulation of Ministry of Religious Affairs no 2/2008. The subject of Quran and Hadits is part of the subject of Religious Education in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah and Madrash Tsanawiyah, and the purpose is to enable students to understand Quran and Hadist as the sources of Islamic teaching. The subject of hadits is the hadits which really refer to Prophet Muhammad with the valid (shahih) chain of hadits narators. There are nine textbooks of Quran and Hadits that are learned depending on the numbers of class. There are 31 hadits as main materials to be discussed and other hadits as supporting materials. The data (hadits) is analyzed using criticts of hadits. The finding of the research reveals that not all materials of hadits taught in madrasah are valid (sahih), some hadits are very poor (weak), and its authenticity is doubtful and even some hadits are false (not authentic).</em></p>

The possibility of a new and stimulating course in mathematics in the Junior High School is the most encouraging feature of our recent advance in the teaching of the subject. Such a course enables the schools to break away from the present initial course and prepare the pupil for the best that mathematics has to offer in the high-school period. It enables them to take the best that other countries have to offer and to introduce it by the natural steps that psychology shows that the youth is ready to take. It allows mathematics to relate itself to the interests and apparent needs of young people instead of being presented as a purely abstract science, since the early stages of a rational course can easily be made much more apparently practical than is the case with the present course. The two standard courses in algebra and geometry, as they have come down to us, are satisfactory so far as technique and logic are concerned, and we shall make a great mistake if we lose the best features which they possess. They are not, however, good introductory courses, and we shall do very much better if we can first establish a taste for mathematics, showing numerous applications of the science and various recreations that come along with them, and then offer a set of strong electives in the Senior High School for those who show an aptitude for the subject.

Kompetensi guru bahasa Indonesia dapat terlihat dari Uji Kemahiran Berbahasa Indonesia (UKBI). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kemampuan guru bahasa dan sastra Indonesia di Pekanbaru dalam menyelesaikan soal UKBI dan untuk mendeskripsikan kemampuan guru dalam menyelesaikan soal UKBI. Dari penganalisisan data diperoleh temuan bahwa nilai rerata UKBI guru SMA memperoleh skor paling tinggi, nilai rerata UKBI guru SMP memperoleh skor sedang, sedangkan nilai rerata UKBI guru SD memperoleh skor paling rendah. Akan tetapi, kemampuan guru bahasa dan sastra Indonesia dari ketiga tingkatan sekolah tersebut (SMA, SMP, SD) dalam menyelesaikan soal UKBI tidak menunjukkan perbedaan yang berarti (tidak signifikan) pada taraf kepercayaan 5 %, hal ini terlihat dari nilai Fhitung lebih kecil dari Ftabel (Fhitung = 0,11 < Ftabel = 4,35)

The purpose of this study is an attempt to define the lithosphere concept, as described in the textbook “Geology-Geography” of the 1st Grade of junior highschool. Further we investigate whether the objectives of the corresponding chapter are being implemented according to the curriculum of the Ministry of Education. The main research hypothesis concentrates on the very limited cognitive background of the students regarding the lithosphere. It is based on the absence of a wellorganized framework of proportional and gradually increased and specialized flow of knowledge, as suggest the few generalised concepts on the subject of Geography taught on the 5th and 6th grade of the Primary School. According to the Curriculum of the “Geology–Geography” of the Ministry of Education, the lithosphere chapter requires fifteen didactic hours for a sum of nine complexes, mostly cognitive objectives. However, the textbook contains only five didactic hours, an indicator of an asymmetric state of the Curriculum. Our opinion about curriculum content itself, which describes the lithosphere, compared to the strictly scientific definition, is that it represents a simplistic approach and consequently the materialization of the cognitive goals is doubtful.
