Full textAbstract:
Currently, there is great interest in the correlation between children’s physical activity and their academic performance. In this study, a pre-test/mid-test/post-test experimental strategy was used to avoid any disruption of educational activities, due to the random selection of children in each group. The experimental group was tested for eight months. We developed a methodology for innovative physical education classes and created a model of educational factors that encourage physical activity for children. The experimental group comprised 45 girls and 44 boys aged 6–7 years. The control group included 43 girls and 46 boys aged 6–7. Methods: Mathematical diagnostic progress tests were divided into two sections: tasks were allocated according to performance levels and the content as well as fields of activity and cognitive skills. The assessment of all areas of activity was based on student performance (unsatisfactory, satisfactory, basic, and advanced). Distribution of mathematical learning achievements by curriculum content: mathematical diagnosis was used to evaluate first-grade children’s mathematical knowledge and skills according to the five areas of the mathematics education curriculum: numbers and calculations; phenomena, equations, and inequalities; geometry, measures, and measurements; statistics and communication; and general problem-solving skills. The differences between the pre-test and mid-test results indicated that the number of children performing at a satisfactory level decreased (p = 0.035). The differences between the pre-test and post-test advanced (p = 0.038) and basic (p = 0.018) levels were found to be increased. Applying an innovative physical education program to first graders demonstrated a higher-level mathematics program in the areas of geometry, measures, and measurements; statistics; and communication and general problem-solving skills. Based on the interface between an innovative primary school physical education program and mathematics learning achievements, a research tool was developed that can be used in a quantitative research strategy.

The rapid growth and emergence of breakthrough technologies in the information and communication field requires annual adjustment and modernization of curricula for specialization disciplines in accordance with the current market requirements. A method of prompt response of the educational environment to the requirements of the external environment, based on the creation of a pool of demanded learning outcomes, is proposed. The object of the research is the process of formation of the required content of specialization disciplines. A formalized method for forming the content of educational disciplines of specialization of maximum utility for implementation in the professional field is described based on expert assessments of representatives of the job market. An algorithm for finding a set of learning outcomes for the identified conditions was devised. A software tool that includes a database and two components: a web interface for collecting and primary processing of information and a C++ program module for automating the main algorithm was developed. The result of the software tool is a pool of learning outcomes recommended for implementation in the content of the educational program. The results of an experimental study based on test data, which proved the accuracy of the calculations of the software component, were presented. Verification of data in the area of web technologies and web programming made it possible to identify a list of learning outcomes for implementation in the educational program «Information Systems». The algorithm developed as a result of research can be used to form the demanded content of elements of educational programs in any industry. It is supposed to develop the proposed method when creating interactive training programs on the technological processes of aircraft repair at the enterprises of the aviation industry.

The objective of this research was two-fold. First, to determine the impact of a Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Education program on school performance amongst primary education students. Second, to identify the potential benefits of this program on the key competences of university students in Primary Education Teacher Training. The primary education students’ sub-sample, after being matched on key covariates, was randomly assigned either to the experimental (N = 25) or control group (N = 25). The university students’ sub-sample consisted of 26 students self-selected from the Primary Education Teacher Training degree. The intervention consisted of 20 two-hour weekly sessions of highly structured after-school tutoring delivered by previously trained university students. Although statistical significance was not reached for the hypotheses tested, notably, the results showed between small and moderate effect sizes (i.e., magnitude and direction of the program impact) for primary education students on core STEM subjects (e.g., mathematics d = 0.29, natural science d = 0.26), and for university students on some key employability competencies (e.g., action orientation d = 0.27 or team orientation d = 0.54).

Full textAbstract:
Primary education is an essential stage and has an important impact on students’ learning attitudes throughout the coming school years. The research explored the attitudes towards science, technology, engineering and mathematics among students through all grade levels in primary school. The Project-based Integrated STEM Program was proposed to study the changes of primary students’ attitudes towards STEM. An assessment of S-STEM which consists of the STEM subscale and the 21st century skills subscale was utilized for both pre-test and post-test. The results showed that primary students exhibited little different attitudes on the S-STEM in the pre-test, regardless of gender and grade level. As evident from the comparison between the pre-test and post-test, the Project-based Integrated STEM Program had a positive effect on student attitudes towards STEM. It is encouraging if there are more STEM-related programs implemented at all educational stages covering the primary level. Keywords: gender differences, grade levels, project-based integrated STEM program, school students, STEM education.

Full textAbstract:
This research paper reports strategies used by Grade 6 learners in multiplying whole numbers in five selected primary schools in Kavango East and West regions. A total of 200 learners’ mathematics exercise books were analysed in order to identify the commonly used strategies by learners in multiplying whole numbers. A total of ten teachers teaching grade 6 mathematics were also requested to complete a questionnaire which required them to indicate the strategies that they employed in class when teaching multiplication of whole numbers. The teachers indicated that they used a variety of strategies including repeated addition, complete-number (Including doubling), partitioning and compensation to teach multiplication of whole numbers. The results also disclosed that the majority of the learners’ mathematics exercise books reflected the use of the traditional method of repeated addition contrary to the teachers’ claims. It was also found that a few of the learners used other strategies such as long method, short method and learner “invented” strategies. Additionally, the mathematics curriculum for upper primary learners (Grade 4-7 mathematics syllabus) requires learners to use paper and pencil algorithms to carry out multiplication of whole numbers without calculators (Ministry of Education, Arts & Culture [MoEAC], 2015, p. 2). However, at Grade 6, learners were expected to use paper and pencil algorithms to multiply numbers within the range 0-100000. Analysis of the learners’ exercise books indicated that the majority were not able to multiply a two digit by a single digit, a two digit by a two digit and a three digit by a two digit number.

The learning of fractional concepts is one of primary school students’ first experiences with a mathematics concept beyond the fundamental four basic operators. However, research has shown that students faced great difficulty in learning fractions which, to a large extent, inhibits their intuitive knowledge of it. The learning of fractions is foundational to the understanding of many more advanced areas of mathematics and science. Examining why they face problems making sense of fractions and what can be done about it is the main aim of this study. Utilizing a mixed method approach, a total of 173 students aged 13-14 were administered a paper and pencil test and then twelve students were selected for the interviews in probing their thought process in assessing their intuitive knowledge on fraction learning. The outcome of the paper and pencil test depicts a lack of intuitive knowledge in making sense of fractions with a low-level attainment of 38.67%. The findings from the interviews showed a growing concern of an overreliance on calculators, algorithm and procedures that inadvertently undermines the learner’s intuitive knowledge of learning fractions. We are of the view that the preconceived notion of 'practice makes perfect’ practices in current classrooms inhibits students’ development of intuitive knowledge in making sense of fractions learning.

The study aims to investigate the mathematics anxiety-apprehension of prospective primary school teachers and its causes. The mathematics anxiety-apprehension of the prospective primary school teachers was analyzed using a number of variables. The prospective teachers were asked to provide written answers to open-ended questions about the causes of their mathematics anxiety. The study used mixed method research design. The quantitative data for the prospective teachers’ mathematics anxiety-apprehension were collected using the Mathematics Anxiety-Apprehension Scale developed by Ikegulu (1998) and translated into Turkish with validity-reliability analyses by Ozdemir and Gur (2011). The qualitative part of the study used the phenomenological method, and the prospective teachers’ metaphors for aspects of mathematics were collected as data. The participants in the study were third- and fourth-grade prospective teachers studying in the Primary Education Department of the Necatibey Faculty of Education at Balikesir University. They were chosen by simple random sampling. The independent samples t-test was computed to analyze the quantitative data, and descriptive statistics were used for the qualitative data. The study found that the mathematics anxiety-apprehension of prospective primary school teachers who were Anatolian high school graduates was significantly lower. Mathematics anxiety-apprehension did not vary by gender, and the third-grade prospective teachers had significantly higher mathematics anxiety-apprehension. The causes of the prospective primary school teachers’ mathematics anxiety-apprehension were found to be related to teachers, prospective teachers, the examination system, mathematics program-related and school facilities-related causes. The prospective primary school teachers often used metaphors such as life, crossword puzzle, game and human for each sub-theme, and 166 metaphors for mathematics were identified. The themes with the highest number of metaphors were basic principles of mathematics teaching, basic mathematical skills and mathematical knowledge, respectively.

Abstract Modern researchers focus on spiritual and moral education only of children, particularly in the humanities. In this study, we develop and implement a program for the spiritual and moral education of 24 mathematics teachers aged between 30 and 65 years and assess its effectiveness. The program's effectiveness was assessed based on previously developed psychodiagnostic tools by expanding spiritual and moral development characteristics with new components. Diagnostics of the primary state of personal characteristics of spirituality was conducted before the experimental training and after implementing the program. We analyzed data using the Wilcoxon T-test, which revealed a significant increase in value-semantic, communicative, reflexive, motivational, and critical parameters. A qualitative analysis was conducted by evaluating the further research activities of 60 % of the students. Our program can be used in postgraduate education in a wide range of specialties and areas of training worldwide. The program can provide advanced training in solving spiritual and moral education issues for mathematics teachers.

Geometry is an essential component of mathematics instruction. “Geometry helps us represent and describe in an orderly manner the world in which we live” (NCTM 1989, 48). Research in the field of early childhood mathematics education (Fuys and Liebov 1993; Del Grande 1985; Fruedenthal 1973) confirms that children are naturally intrigued by, and motivated to learn more about, the geometry that defines their worlds. Although it is important to provide a rich geometry program in the primary grades, research reveals that the little attention given to geometry is typically for exposure purposes (Bruni and Seidenstein 1990; Porter 1989). Therefore, any classroom time devoted to geometry is precious.

Full textAbstract:
The effects of a 4 X 4 block scheduling program in a middle school on a variety of student measures were investigated. These measures included standardized achievement tests in mathematics, reading, and writing, cumulative and semester grades in middle school and high school, attendance rates, and enrollment rates in advanced high school courses (in mathematics only). The block scheduling program had been in effect for four years allowing analyses of current middle and high school students who had experienced a minimum of one and one-half years of block scheduling while in middle school. The primary research design was a post-test only, matched pairs design. Students were matched on school characteristics, gender, ethnicity, grade level, and 5th grade standardized reading scores. Results were relatively consistent with the extant literature and generally positive.

With the demands of professionals, the study reports that there is a great deal of anxiety that arises in real teaching. As an effort to reduce the teaching anxiety, this study explores the level of teaching anxiety faced by student teachers in implementing real teaching as well as factors that can trigger the emergence of anxiety. This research was conducted quantitatively by applying the survey as the research strategy. The Student Teacher Anxiety Scale (STAS) found by Hart (1987) became a research instrument with language modification performed. 238 student teachers of Multidiciplinary Education Study Program (ESP) at one of the Private University in Indonesia who will carry out real teaching are involved as research respondents. The respondents consist of 6 different ESP. Based on the results of the study, it can be seen that the level of teaching anxiety faced by student teachers of multidiciplinary ESP in carrying out real teaching activities is at a high level with an average of 3.69. The level of anxiety experienced by student teachers of each ESP are as follows: Primary School Teacher (3.89), Mathematics (3.74), English Language (3.48), Indonesian Language (3.47) are at a high level. While the level of teaching anxiety of student teachers of Biology ESP (3.35) and Economic ESP (3.26) are at the normal level. Meanwhile, the most influencing factor causing the teaching anxiety were teaching preparation (3.86), teaching evaluation (3.73), class control (3.71), school staff (3.58), and failure in teaching (3, 58). With the anxiety that arises, good communication is the initial solution that can be done so that real teaching activities get better. Finally, real teaching will be more useful when the anxiety that arises is considered as a stimulation so that students can carry out better real teaching activities.

We present how the education of subject teachers is organized in mathematics, science and computer science in Tampere. It is based on the idea that both engineering students and students from mathematics and science may choose to become a subject teacher. Students are accepted either to the master’s degree program in Science and Engineering of Tampere University of Technology or the master’s program of Mathematics and Statistics of University of Tampere. Students from different universities are giving opportunities to learn from each other. They study physics and chemistry in Tampere University of Technology and do pedagogical studies in University of Tampere. Both universities have also developed special motivating courses based on the didactical research to their students. In mathematics, there is a joined course for the second or third year students motivating towards teaching carrier. In both universities there are possibilities to do the master or bachelor thesis in didactics of mathematics or science. Both universities have an important role in education of subject teachers in Finland. Tampere University of Technology is providing opportunities during studies to cooperate between schools and industry. It gives ideas how science and mathematics are applied in the modern society. University of Tampere also trains primary school teachers with specialization in mathematics.

Full textAbstract:
Recently, STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) education has become a focus in the Australian context, particularly since the release of government-initiated reports into Australia’s falling performance on international tests and fewer enrolments in senior school STEM subjects and university STEM degrees. Since student engagement in STEM subjects begins to decline in primary school (Kindergarten to grade 6 in Australia [5-12 years of age]), addressing engagement and achievement in the STEM subjects requires support for teachers to design curriculum that enthuses students and develops their understanding of the role of the STEM subjects in solving real-world problems. To that end, a year-long professional learning program was developed to assist small teams of teachers from each of 13 primary schools in designing integrated STEM curriculum approaches. To determine the impact of the program on teachers’ capacity to design integrated STEM curriculum and on students’ STEM attitudes and aspirations, data were collected using both qualitative and quantitative research methods. This paper presents a case study of one of the participating primary schools. From the 44 grade 3 students who completed both pre- and post-surveys, students’ attitudes and aspirations towards the STEM subjects showed significant positive shifts. Analyses of school documents and transcripts of interviews with four teachers and a group of four students from the school enabled.

Digital divide is referring to the gap between demographics and regions that have access to modern information and communications technology, and those that don't or have restricted access such as internet. The digital divide continues an important public policy debate that encompasses social, economic and political issues. This research focuses on to identify internet accessibility factors at Pulau Tuba Langkawi. In this research study, we focus on surveying internet accessibility and conducting an interview using quantitative study. Internet accessibility is conducted using OpenSignal application. OpenSignal is application to build a network coverage map of cellular network. For second method, quantitative survey was conducted by interviewing and questionnaire, with the sample size of the survey is 30. From this research, the results show only two spots which has good internet coverage which are near a primary school which are government owned premises. On the other hand, the area along the beach has moderate to bad internet coverage and certain place such as Lubuk Chempedak has very limited internet coverage. From quantitative survey, majority of population has average competent level of knowledge and skills to use the internet application such as email, online banking etc. Furthermore, the results show that majority of population strongly agreed that internet has the potential to increase their income and market their local product to bigger market. However, majority of them unable to use the internet and benefits from it due to poor internet accessibility. Therefore, more IT educational program and training should be given, and the government and local authority must play its part to improve the internet infrastructure so that the population did not continue being left out from the development of digital economy.

Renewed calls for a systems biology reflect the hope hat enduring biological questions at single-cell and cell-population scales will be resolved as modern molecular biology, with its reductionist program, approaches a nearly-complete characterization of the molecular mechanisms of specific cellular processes. Due to the confounding complexity of biological organization across these scales, computational science is sought to complement the intuition of experimentalists. However, with respect to the molecular basis of cellular processes during development and disease, a gulf between feasible simulations and realistic biology persists. Formidable are the mathematical and computational challenges to conducting and validating cell population-scale simulations, drawn from single-cell level and molecular level details. Nonetheless, in some biological contexts, a focus on core processes crafted by evolution can yield coarse-grained mathematical models that retain explanatory potential despite drastic simplification of known biochemical kinetics. In this article, we bring this modeling philosophy to bear on the nature of neural progenitor cell decision making during mammalian cerebral cortical development. Specifically, we present the computational component to a research program addressing developmental links between (i) the cellular response to endogenous DNA damage, (ii) primary mechanisms of neuronal genetic heterogeneity, or mosaicism, and (iii) the cell fate decision making that defines the population kinetics of neurogenesis.

Full textAbstract:
Canada, along with other countries that are considering the permanent disposal of high-level radioactive wastes from nuclear power generation, is undertaking a program of research into deep geological disposal. This program, led by Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL) with support from Energy, Mines and Resources Canada, other federal government departments, universities, and industrial consultants, has been in progress since early in 1973. Geoscience research, the subject of this symposium, complements research on fuel waste immobilization to provide the data and information essential to the design and assessment of a complete disposal concept involving both natural and engineered barriers to the migration of radioactive material from the waste vault.During the early phases of the program, prior to 1975, an evaluation of the potential of Canadian salt deposits for nuclear waste disposal, as well as a preliminary assessment of the suitability of other geological formations, was made. Because the Province of Ontario was, and remains, the principal region in Canada for nuclear power development and because resources available for geoscience research would not permit simultaneous, intensive research on a number of rock types, the decision was taken to direct the main thrust of the geoscience research toward plutonic igneous rocks of the Canadian Shield in Ontario (Scott 1979). Lesser studies of salt and other sedimentary formations, including seabed, are continuing within the Geological Survey of Canada.Because the rock mass surrounding the vault will provide the principal barrier to the migration of radionuclides, should these be released from the emplaced wastes, knowledge and understanding of potential pathways through the rock mass and of the mechanisms of radionuclide transport and retention within the rock mass over the functional lifetime of the vault are fundamental requirements.Accordingly, the objectives of the geoscience research program (Dormuth and Scott 1984) are the following:(1) Develop and apply techniques to define the physical and chemical properties of large rock masses and of fluids within these rock masses.(2) Use these techniques in selected field research areas to calibrate and evaluate models developed to calculate fluid flow and mass transport through a large rock mass containing a hypothetical underground nuclear fuel waste-disposal vault.(3) Establish procedures to evaluate quantitatively rock bodies for their potential as disposal sites and thereby acquire the capability to compare different rock bodies.(4) Determine the long-term stability of plutonic rock masses by assessing the potential disturbance by seismic activity, glaciation, meteorite impact, and other disruptive events and processes.To achieve these objectives it has been necessary to undertake simultaneously a large number of research tasks involving the disciplines of geology, geophysics, hydrogeology, geomechanics, geochemistry, and mathematics. Some of these tasks are concerned primarily with regional aspects of the Canadian Shield, such as stress distribution, glaciation, and tectonic history; others with details of the surface and subsurface geology and hydrogeology of specific field research areas; and still others with the development and application of exploration technology to detect and evaluate the structural characteristics of igneous rock masses of relatively high integrity and uniformity. Field and office studies are supported by laboratory investigations of the physical and chemical properties of plutonic rocks, with specific reference to origin, history, and ability to retard or transmit radionuclides.Deep exploratory drilling and detailed surface mapping are carried out at designated field research areas in the Canadian Shield. Geoscience work at research areas has the two-fold purpose of (i) testing new and existing exploration techniques for the evaluation of rock masses; and (ii) through application of these airborne, surface, and subsurface techniques, providing the field data necessary for the development of concepts and models that form the basis for establishing site-selection criteria and performing safety analyses.The latest research areas have been established at Atikokan, Ontario, an area underlain by granitic rocks, and at East Bull Lake north of Massey, Ontario, where gabbroic rocks are the dominant type. These research areas complement previously established research areas developed on granitic rocks at AECL properties at Chalk River, Ontario, and Pinawa, Manitoba, and at a research area, also on granitic terrane, near White Lake, Ontario, where work was done early in the program to test geophysical exploration and borehole-logging equipment.The ability to predict subsurface geological and hydrogeological conditions at future waste-disposal sites is one of the primary goals of geoscience research in the Canadian Nuclear Fuel Waste Management Program (CNFWMP). One of the most important program elements designed to test this predictive capability was the construction of the Underground Research Laboratory (URL) in the Lac du Bonnet Batholith near the site of the Whiteshell Nuclear Research Establishment. Airborne, surface, and borehole methods were used to develop a geological model on the site, and hydrogeological investigations were carried out to establish preconstruction groundwater characteristics. As the excavation of the URL facilities proceeded, the geological features encountered and the changes in the hydrogeological systems were carefully monitored. These data are being used to assess and improve the geological and hydrogeological models being developed for the rock mass surrounding the URL.The URL provides an excellent opportunity to (i) study the effect of excavation techniques, heat, and stress on a rock mass; (ii) simulate and study the complex systems that may exist in a disposal vault environment; and (iii) develop and test shaft- and drift-sealing techniques. Recently, a bilateral agreement between AECL and the United States Department of Energy was signed for co-operative research on nuclear fuel waste disposal. A substantial part of this co-operative effort will be directed toward extension of the URL shaft beyond its present depth of 240 m and conducting a variety of nonnuclear experiments within the shaft and excavated chambers of the URL.From the time of formalization of CNFWMP over 10 years ago, a concerted effort has been made by AECL and other program participants to ensure both peer review of and widespread accessibility to results of research arising from CNFWMP. This symposium is the third to be sponsored by the Geological Association of Canada (GAC)—the two previous symposiums were held at GAC annual meetings in Winnipeg in 1982 and Toronto in 1978. In addition to these major symposia, general information meetings sponsored by AECL have been held annually at various centres across Canada, and research elements of CNFWMP formed a significant part of the technical program for an international meeting held by the Canadian Nuclear Society in Winnipeg in September 1986.Since 1979 the CNFWMP review process has been further enhanced by the Technical Advisory Committee chaired by L. W. Shemilt, McMaster University. This committee, comprising members nominated by major Canadian scientific and technical societies including the Canadian Geoscience Council, has annually provided a publicly available report of constructive criticism and recommendations for improvement in the research content of CNFWMP.During the second half of 1988 it is expecte

AbstractThis article is part of the research in progress of the Undergraduate Program of the Master's Degree in Teaching at the University of Cuiabá and its object of study is the planning notebooks of the Mathematics subject of the primary school in the 1980s. The objective is to investigate the mathematics taught in primary school, from the notebooks of teaching plans used by the teacher in the classroom. The methodological approach is based on the historical-cultural perspective with school notebooks as sources to understand how Mathematics was didactically treated and taught in other times. The previously analyzed data indicate that the Mathematics contents, taught during classes, were supported by the problem-solving methodology as one of the predominant exercises for students in the 4th grade of primary school. Another highlight is the evaluative tests indicating traces of what the math tests were like and the teaching and learning process inherent in the school culture disseminated at the time.
Keywords: School Notebooks. Mathematics Teaching. Primary School.

The aim of the research is to investigate whether "Teaching Mathematics for the 2nd grade of elementary school in an appropriate way for the theory of multiple intelligences on geometric subjects" has any impact on students’ academic achievement or not. The research is an experimental study and it was conducted with the students of the 2nd grade class in a primary school in Küçükçekmece province of Istanbul in 2016-2017 education year. A total of 60 students participated in the research, 30 in the experimental group and 30 in the control group. In the control group, while the subject "geometric objects" was taught using traditional methods, the same subject in the experimental group was taught by curriculums prepared in accordance with the Multiple Intelligence Theory. The study lasted for 4 weeks together with the applications of test development, pre-test, post-test and course work. The application was performed by researchers. The data obtained from the application were evaluated in the SPSS 22 Program. As a result of the evaluations made, it was concluded that the lesson which was taught by using the curriculums prepared according to the Multiple Intelligences Theory had a more positive effect on student achievement compared to the lesson which was taught using traditional methods.Keywords: Multiple Intelligence Theory, Mathematics, Geometry, Academic Achievement

Technology has enhanced the scope and span of the teaching and learning process but somehow it could not enhance the self-motivation and engagement among the students to the same scale. The lack of self-motivation and intermittent engagement is one of the prime challenges faced by educators today. Perplexing tasks for the faculty are to embroil students during the lecture. This work paves new ways to scale up the enticement using artificial intelligence and machine learning. The intelligent framework proposed here is built on yet another novel methodology used globally for user engagement and is termed gamification. The primary objective of the present research work is to negate the issue of disengagement by designing and implementing a gamified framework on 120 students from higher education that will include student engagement, enticement, and motivation. Generally, mechanisms are designed for specific courses, whereas the gamified system proposed is an open-ended method irrespective of course and the program being studied, and this framework has endeavored on multiple courses. To enhance the utility of the gamified framework, ANFIS model is utilized for smart decision-making concerning rewards distribution that is directly proportional to the number of coins gained by the students. As an outcome, better participation of a group of students under the proposed intelligent gamified system is reported as compared to the control group thus endorsing the success of the model.

The main aim of this article was, using subjective information, to analyze the forgotten factors that influence the motivation of Boyacenses to become entrepreneurs. The study was carried out with entrepreneurs enrolled in the Boyacá Region Brand Program (BRBP). For the treatment of the collected data, the method of the experts and the theory of forgotten effects were used to identify second-generation incidences involving motivational factors in Boyacense entrepreneurs. The research questions that guided the study were as follows: What are the forgotten effects among the motivational factors of entrepreneurship? What are the intermediate factors that generate the second-order effects? What are the economic, psychological, cultural, and environmental factors that have second-order effects among them? Among the main findings, it was possible to visualize second-degree relationships between economic, cultural, and psychological factors. Additionally, in the case of entrepreneurs from Boyacá, the primary motivation for most of them to develop their business idea was economic independence, while the least motivating was the improvement of social status. Likewise, the need for achievement was highlighted. Finally, the country’s economic situation was found to work against the development of entrepreneurship.

In the era of Industry Revolution (IR) 4.0, business and industry are being transformed by a new wave of digital technology. In order to boost the economy’s prosperity in Malaysia, skilled workforce or well-trained manpower is vital in accomplishing the goal.However, it requires mainstreaming Technical and Vocational Education Training (TVET)in education system by providingcomprehensive training, effective research consultancy, holistic courses, collaboration, student placement and program attachment opportunity. Coherent from this issue, the government can produce more skill workers that can handle the rapid changing world of work. In Malaysia, there are more than 1000 TVET institutions, where 506 are considered as public institutions. However, itstill receives less attention by the students after secondary education. The identified potential factors are TVET instructors, current policy in Malaysia, social perception, employers’ perception, parents, facility, education cost and student themselves. Therefore, this study aims to rank these factors according to the levels of importance using Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. AHP is a method used to rank criteria by assigning the weight for each criterion. In this study, primary data is collected using questionnaires from 32 TVET instructors of Institut Kemahiran Belia Negara (IKBN) in northern region of Malaysia. The result of AHP shows that the variable of parents is the most influential factor with the weight of 18.81%, followed by the variable of facilities (18.56%). Conversely, the least influential factor is the variable of social perception with the weight of 7.21%. Hence, the government should implement appropriate strategies to attract more secondary school students to enroll in TVET programs. Due to the growth of skilled workers, our country is expected to transform the landscape of the manufacturing industry over the next decade. Hence, developingthe country’s productivity and curbing youth unemployment.

Full textAbstract:
The beauty and freshness of fractal geometry suggests that once again we are at the start of science and mathematics… women and men will look back on this era much as we look back to the early Greeks. (Barnsley, 1989, p. 5)Such enthusiasm for a perceived new paradigm in the mathematical sciences is beginning to emerge within broader educational contexts (Devaney & Keen, 1989; Egnatoff, 1989; Geake, 1990a & 1990b). Much of the interest in fractal geometry has focussed on its ability to describe complex natural phenomena (Mandelbrot, 1983 & 1990; Pickover, 1987; Barnsley, 1988). Recent investigations into the visual perception of natural imagery have used fractal mathematics in describing the characteristics of such perception (Pentland, 1984; Field, 1987; Peli, 1990). This study examined human visual perception of the fractal form found in the natural environment. Specifically, this research project examined how exposure to a program of fractal computer graphics affected the perceptual sensitivity of primary school children to the natural visual environment. The underpinning rationale was to address a long standing challenge of Linke (1980) to develop a stronger theoretical basis for environmental education in Australia.

One way to evaluate various services at the university is seen from the level of student satisfaction. The purpose of this study is to measure how much the level of student satisfaction in the university environment, especially in the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Universitas Islam Indonesia (FMIPA UII) and future expectations of students focusing on their respective study programs. 6 aspects were used to find out how much satisfaction the students had, namely: (1) Tangible, (2) Reliability, (3) Responsiveness, (4) Assurance, (5) Empathy, and (6) Information. The research method used is descriptive analysis method related to satisfaction represented by the Cartesian diagram. The study was conducted in a period of 3 months with the sample used being active students in the 2016 and 2017 FMIPA classes proportionally in each study program (study program). The data used are primary data consisting of 2 main assessments, namely performance assessment and importance assessment. The results of the level of satisfaction / suitability are classified into the Cartesian diagram which consists of 4 priorities, namely: top priority, achievement priority, low priority, and excessive. The results of the study obtained overall levels of satisfaction in Mathematics as much as 90% of students were satisfied with the level of performance provided. However, there are still 2 indicators that are included in the priority, namely problems in the key-in process and ease of communication for parents of students to consult. In addition to the contents of each indicator, an analysis of suggestions for improvement in the FMIPA environment using text mining based on barplot and wordcloud is associated with the dominant words appearing to describe the general expectations of students
