The Study of Strengthening Skills in High School Chemistry Micro-Lattice Teaching

2024-12-30T10:02:15+00:00

At present, many chemistry normal students in China know little about strengthening skills and how to use intensive skills in teaching. However, to be a good chemistry teacher, you must master the strengthening skills. Because the appropriate and reasonable use of strengthening skills in chemistry class can focus students' attention, help students to maintain correct learning behavior, and inhibit or improve bad learning behavior. Chemistry micro-grid teaching is a practical training activity, which can effectively exercise and improve the various teaching skills of chemistry teachers or normal university students. After micro-teaching, normal university students can effectively improve and enhance their own teaching skills in a relatively short period of time. This paper introduces the research status of chemistry micro-lattice teaching and strengthening skills, briefly expounds the related concepts of chemistry micro-lattice teaching and reinforcement skills, and analyzes the individual cases of cultivating strengthening skills through chemistry micro-lattice teaching.

Determining Accounting Undergraduates' Intention to Become Shariah Auditors in Malaysia: A Theory of Planned Behavior Approach

2024-12-12T02:05:45+00:00

This study investigates accounting students’ intention to become Shariah auditors based on the Theory of Planned Behavior encompassing attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control. It identifies the key factors influencing this career intention. Employing data of 127 accounting students across three Malaysian universities and utilizing analysis through Smart PLS, the study reveals that subjective norms and perceived behavioral control significantly impact students' intention to become Shariah auditors. These findings provide valuable insights for universities to enhance accounting curricula and programs, ultimately fostering a workforce proficient in Shariah principles and auditing. Additionally, the findings of the study aid in the development of skilled and competent Shariah auditors equipped to address the growing demands of the Islamic finance sector, thus benefiting academia, the industry, and future practitioners.

The Perceptions of Preservice Teachers on Culturally Responsive Teaching Through the Lens of Geneva Gay Framework

2024-12-30T20:40:18+00:00

This study aimed to understand preservice teachers' perceptions of culturally responsive teaching within a teacher preparation program, guided by Geneva Gay's Culturally Responsive Teaching Framework. The research questions examined the extent of preservice teachers' knowledge of cultural diversity, their ability to validate the cultural identities of diverse learners, and their implementation of culturally responsive teaching practices. Utilizing a qualitative methodology, the study allowed participants to express their views on their preparedness to be culturally responsive teachers based on their training. The study population consisted of full-time college students enrolled in a teacher preparation program, all of whom had some fieldwork experience. The findings indicated that teachers should establish culturally responsive learning environments that are inclusive and safe, which includes being aware of their biases and being culturally sensitive to diverse learners. Additionally, the study highlighted the need for teacher preparation programs to offer more inclusive teaching strategies and resources to ensure cultural sustainability as preservice teachers begin working with diverse student populations.

Research on the Import Skills Based on Micro-Teaching in Junior Middle School

2024-12-30T10:07:51+00:00

Attaching importance to the improvement of teachers' skills and qualities and strengthening the construction of teachers' ranks are the foundation of consolidating education and the source of education. As a new training method of teaching skills, micro-teaching provides support for the cultivation of classroom teaching skills of normal university students and promotes the implementation of teaching skills training of normal university students. At present, in the actual teaching, teachers' import skills still need to be strengthened. Therefore, this paper selects the import skills in micro-teaching, combined with the specific teaching content cases in junior high school chemistry, to explore the application of import skills.

Generative AI in Higher Education: Challenges and Opportunities for Course Learning

2024-12-25T12:35:16+00:00

Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is transforming course learning in higher education. This study, based on two rounds of action research in two college courses, reveals critical challenges in this transformation. Findings indicate that students' reliance on GenAI can hinder their autonomy, critical thinking, and affective-social learning, while also raising concerns about content accuracy, intellectual property rights, and privacy. Although teacher guidance partially mitigates these issues, enhanced strategies are crucial. This study provides practical implications for optimizing curriculum design, teaching methods, and evaluation criteria, emphasizing the need to incorporate ethics education and strengthen emotional-social guidance. Future research directions are suggested to address the challenges of GenAI and ensure educational quality and student development.

Walasuji Sulapa Eppa’na: Integrating Philosophical Values into Sustainable Development in the Land of To Kaili

2024-12-12T13:42:17+00:00

Walasuji - Sulapa Eppa'na is a cultural symbol of the Bugis-Makassar ethnic group in South Sulawesi, rich in philosophical values that embody spirituality, identity, mutual cooperation, and human responsibility in preserving nature. Its geometric pattern, composed of stacked quadrilaterals resembling rhombuses, serves not only as an aesthetic ornament but also symbolises the human journey towards perfection and the relationship with God. This concept represents the four main elements of life: God, humanity, the sky, the earth, and everything within it. However, in the Palu Valley, with the history of Bugis-Makassar ethnic migration, these philosophical values have begun to degrade due to globalisation, acculturation of forms, materials, functions, preferences, and the younger generation’s diminishing understanding of their ancestral traditions. As a result, Walasuji - Sulapa Eppa'na has become increasingly rare in the wedding ceremonies of the Bugis-Makassar-Kaili ethnic community, known as “To Kaili.” This research employs a qualitative method by exploring a single phenomenon, which is then analysed descriptively to understand the degradation of the cultural symbol Walasuji - Sulapa Eppa'na. The research objects are users of Walasuji structures, with Sulapa Eppa'na samples selected using purposive and incidental sampling techniques. The study aims to analyse the impact of changes on the preservation of Walasuji - Sulapa Eppa'na and explore the potential revitalisation of its values in urban development. The findings reveal that despite the degradation, the Bugis-Makassar-Kaili ethnic community continues to strive to preserve their cultural identity, including the responsibility of safeguarding nature. This study recommends integrating the values of Walasuji - Sulapa Eppa'na into urban development to achieve sustainable development.
