Virtually the same? Evaluating the effectiveness of remote undergraduate research experiences

In-person undergraduate research experiences (UREs) promote students' integration into careers in life science research. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic prompted institutions hosting summer URE programs to offer them remotely, raising questions about whether undergraduates who participate in remote research can experience scientific integration. To address this, we investigated indicators of scientific integration for students who participated in remote life science URE programs in summer 2020. We found that these students experienced gains in their scientific self-efficacy and scientific identity similar to results reported for in-person UREs. We also found that these students perceived high benefits and low costs of doing research at the outset of their programs, and their perceptions did not change despite the remote circumstances. Yet, their perceptions differed by program, indicating that programs differentially affected students' perceptions of the costs of doing research. Finally, we observed that students with prior research experience made greater gains in self-efficacy and identity, as well as in their perceptions of the alignment of their values with those of the scientific community, in comparison to students with no prior research experience. This finding suggests that additional programming may be needed for undergraduates with no prior experience to benefit from remote research.

SCIENTIFIC INTEGRATION OF ISLAMIC BOARDING SCHOOLS

This study aims to find out how the concept of integrating religious knowledge with general science is at the Nurul Huda Yaspin Islamic Boarding School and how to apply the integration of religious knowledge and general science at the Nurul Huda Yaspin Islamic Boarding School. This type of research is case study research or field research, where researchers go directly to the field to obtain data and information on the research carried out. Meanwhile, this research approach uses a descriptive approach. The results of the study show that the concept of integrating religious knowledge and general science at Nurul Huda is inseparable from the basic values (qiyam HAM) that are embedded in every step and educational activity carried out in it. Nurul Huda Yaspin cults himself as a boarding school of etiquette, etiquette is an acronym for Takwa, Tafaqquh, Khidmah and rahmatan lil alamin. Nurul Huda's three basic values serve to underlie, integrate and direct his orientation. The application of the curriculum at Nurul Huda does not distinguish between religious knowledge and general science. In terms of concepts, religious knowledge and general science are both taught in recitations at Nurul Huda, such as Sufism, logic or mantiq lectures, philosophy, interpretation studies, falaq science and so on, all organized in curriculum units according to each study program. which is in Nurul Huda.

Integrasi-interkoneksi Sains Islam pada Mata Kuliah Antropobiologi

Islamic Higher Education (PTAI) is expected to be a research based university with international competitiveness without losing its characteristics. It is necessary to eliminate the scientific dichotomy by integrating science with Islamic religious studies. At IAIN Purwokerto, the concept of integration-interconnection is manifested in “Jabalul Hikmah”. The epistemological reintegration of the scientific foundations is expected to answer academic, religious, social, cultural, and technological problems in society. One of the subjects based on general science which needs to be integrated with Islamic studies is Anthropobiology. Hence, this study aims to examine how to present anthropobiology courses in an integrated interconnected with Islamic studies. This research is a library research conducted by collecting and analyzing data from books, journals, and articles related to scientific integration models and anthropobiological concepts in pure science and Islamic perspectives. In the Miles and Huberman model, the collected will be reduced to focus on the important things, then the data is presented, and finally verified. The results show that efforts to integrate Islamic science in Anthropobiology course material can be done by integrating anthropobiological concepts derived from universal truths with Islamic studies. Through the integration-interconnection of Islamic science, Anthropobiology courses can support Islamic Early Childhood Education Study Program students to have a comprehensive understanding of human characteristics to prepare early childhood education.

IMPLEMENTATION OF SCIENTIFIC INTEGRATION CONCEPT MONITORING AND EVALUATION ON THE PESANTREN LEARNING CURRICULUM

This study aims to determine the results of monitoring and evaluation of the implementation of curriculum integration carried out by an Islamic educational institution in Islamic boarding schools. The research was conducted at the Baitul Fikri Arcamanik Modern Islamic Boarding School in Bandung. The study uses a qualitative approach with the CIPO evaluation technique developed through observation and data collection with documentary data and structured interviews with rating-scale techniques. The results showed that the percentage value of the application of the concept of integration was in line with the results obtained with students' summative evaluation value data. The data on the application of the lowest integration concept is in Mathematics with a percentage of 55%, and the average summative value of students is 73, while the highest data on the application of the concept of integration is in PJOK subjects with a percentage of 77% and the average summative score of 81 students.

Implementing of Science-Social Integration in Islamic Education Learning

Theoretically, religion and social science have an integrative relationship because they originate from God developed by human. However, practically, the relationship occurs in a dichotomy so that it has implications in learning activities at Islamic educational institutions, especially in the classroom context. The gap between those theories and practice generates the idea of integrating religious science and social science in Islamic universities. Therefore, this article describes the implementation of social science in Islamic religious education learning at the Department of Islamic Education State Islamic University of Sunan Gunung Djati Bandung. Based on the theory of scientific integration, this study applied observation, interviews, and documentation techniques. The result shows that social science can be integrated into Islamic education learning related to learning (philosophical) competencies, learning materials, learning strategy; and the learning evaluation.

Scientific Development Based on Unity of Sciences (Waḥdat Al-‘Ulum) Paradigm

This study aims to determine the systematic and fundamental philosophical foundation of Walisongo State Islamic University (UIN). This research uses a philosophical and historical approach and content analysis method to obtain information in depth. Begins with data collection through literature studies, documents are related to it. The scientific integration of the Unity of Sciences paradigm in the scientific cluster being developed contains three strategies that try to answer. The first is the science of religion that is not down to earth or lacks benefits for the wider community. Then the second is when modern sciences are tasteless and value-free. The last is the local culture which began to fade with the development of modernization. These problems will be answered with the humanization of Islamic sciences, the spiritualization of modern sciences, and the revitalization of local wisdom. Scientific development in the clumps of Islamic sciences produces religious knowledge following the times, not rigid and friendly to local wisdom. Meanwhile, the natural sciences and social humanities are planted with spiritual values. Thus, this research can be used as a stepping stone or a model for scientific integration at the State Islamic Institute (IAIN) to shift to the State Islamic University (UIN).
