Abstract

This study aims to describe the profile of high school students' mathematical connection abilities in solving problems on systems of three-variable linear equations based on cognitive style. The method used in this research is qualitative. This research was carried out in the even semester of the 2022/2023 academic year. The research subjects were 27 class X students at a high school in the North Central Timor district. Subjects were grouped based on FI and FD cognitive styles. Next, 6 subjects were selected, namely 3 FI and 3 FD to take the mathematical connection ability test. The instruments used in this research were GEFT, mathematical connection ability tests, and interviews. Data analysis techniques are data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion. The results of this study show that the mathematical connection abilities of each student are different. Subjects with a field-independent cognitive style meet all indicators of mathematical connection ability, while subjects with a field-dependent cognitive style do not meet all indicators of mathematical connection ability

Abstract

This study aims to improve students' problem-solving abilities through a constructivist approach. This study uses quantitative methods in the form of pre-experimental. This research was carried out in the even semester of the 2022/2023 academic year This research design used one group pretest and post-test. The participants of this study were 17 grade X students of one of the high schools in North Central Timor district. Research instruments in the form of problem-solving ability tests. Before conducting data analysis, a prerequisite test is first carried out, namely a normality test using the SPSS-assisted Shapiro-Wilk test, and the results obtained that the data is normally distributed. Test the hypothesis using a one-sample t-test and a paired sample t-test. The results showed that students who learned using the constructivist approach achieved minimal completeness and there was an increase in the mathematical problem-solving ability of students who learned through the constructivism approach. Learning with a constructivist approach can facilitate the problem-solving ability of high school students. Therefore, it is recommended that advanced researchers in order to be able to apply constructivist approaches to other mathematical abilities

Abstract

There is an interesting issue that concerns leadership in 21 century that is faced with the 4th industrial revolution on leadership. This paper aimed to discover school principals’ practices of servant leadership in serving teachers. The study engaged servant leadership and Cultural Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) as theoretical frameworks. Servant leadership was used to interpret the practices of the school principals, while CHAT was used to identify and explain the findings in terms of culture and context. Two schools were chosen; both are owned by the public and found in the rural area of Maseru. This paper is located within an interpretive paradigm and adopts a qualitative approach. The study engaged focus groups, interviews, and observation. There were two focus groups, one from each school. There were 8 members in each focus group. The interview was done with the school principals of the two schools in Lesotho. The findings revealed that school principals practiced servant leadership. One core business of servant leadership is to serve. Teachers were served by reducing conflicts, facilitating the decentralization at school, promoting information sharing in schools; augmenting teacher commitment boosting job satisfaction and retention of teachers, creating a pleasant working climate, and developing teamwork.

Abstract

This study explores the factors behind poor Kiswahili performance in selected schools within the Alego-Usonga Sub-County. Kiswahili is learned globally for diverse purposes, including research, travel in East and Central Africa, meeting foreign academic requirements, connecting with East African diaspora roots, and voluntary work. However, Kiswahili performance in K.C.S.E. has been consistently low, with a five-year mean score of 4.74 (equivalent to D+). The research investigates challenges related to the availability of Kiswahili teaching and learning resources and proposes strategies for academic improvement. A sample of 311 students, 15 teachers, and 15 principals was selected through appropriate methods. Findings indicate that most secondary schools have a low book ratio of 1:3, and all other resources scored poorly, with a mean of 2.92, highlighting resource inadequacy as a significant challenge. The study recommends implementing strategies like donations, fundraising, and parental involvement to enhance resource availability. In conclusion, it emphasizes the need for government and stakeholder collaboration to improve Kiswahili's performance as a subject in the Sub-County.

Abstract

The research subjects were the tenth-grade students and the research area was at SMA DharmaAyu Kefamenanu. This research investigated the improvement of students’ vocabulary by using crossword puzzle games in the classroom. The research design was Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted in two cycles. The research subjects were 10 of the tenth-grade students of SMA Dharma Ayu Kefamenanu. The data were collected by using observation and vocabulary achievement tests. The collected data were analyzed statistically by using a percentage formula. The students’ average score was 76.5% in pre-test 1 of cycle one; then it was improved to 79.8 % in post-test 1, and increased to 87.5 % in post-test 2 of cycle 2.  It indicates that the students’ vocabulary and level of mastery was improved by using crossword puzzle games. This result reminds the teachers of English to use crossword puzzle in teaching and learning process of English, particularly to boost the students’ vocabulary mastery.
