Abstract:
All of us, as students, attended school and sat in classrooms for long periods. We listened (most of the time!), we absorbed, we learned, we sat and passed examinations (hopefully!), but we were largely silent participants in the whole classroom process. Yes, we answered and asked questions about what we were learning and responded to our teachers and classmates but, did anyone in our schools ever ask us what we thought about how we were being taught or whether and how we were learning? Did anyone ever ask us for our opinions on our schools or the classrooms in which we sat for all of that time? The answer is often a resounding no. There is no tradition in Irish schools to ask, consult or discuss with students their views on their school, their classroom, their teachers, their learning or their experience in this very important and formative period of ...

Abstract:
The aim of this research is to establish the contribution of demonstration and student-led experiments on the quality of students’ knowledge about the air-related content in the third grade of primary school. This research included 120 students from Serbia, divided into two groups: control (C) and experimental (E). In group C the experiments were demonstrated by the teacher, whereas those same experiments were independently conducted by the students’ inside smaller groups in group E. The quality of the students’ knowledge was examined after the application of the experiments with the post-test, while the quality of the duration of knowledge was examined with the retest. The students in the group E acquired the knowledge of the higher quality and more durable knowledge about the air-related content then the students’ from the group C on the cognitive levels: analysis, evaluation and synthesis. Therefore, the priority should be given to the student-led experiments over the demonstration, when processed air-related content in the third grade of primary school, because their application contributes to the increase of the students’ knowledge quality. Keywords: demonstration experiments, primary school, student knowledge quality, student-led experiments, third grade.

Abstract:
The Ranau Earthquake that struck on 5 June 2015, February 2018, and April 2021, were a new disaster in Sabah and caused many Sabahan to panic. The unpredicted disaster also caused a serious impact on all aspects of life in Sabah. The earthquake has caused severe damage to eight primary schools in the vicinity of the epicenter, although no casualties were reported. However, the disaster has deep passing psychological effects among students. In this study, we examine how the primary school teachers enabled the student to be resilient during and after the disaster. Based on the interviews with 16 primary school students, it was revealed that most of the teachers used WhatsApp to support resilience during and after the earthquake. Interviews with 16 primary school teachers revealed there were two main reasons for them to communicate with students, namely, delivering emotional aid and monitoring their stress. Based on student interviews, five content categories of emotional support were identified: caring, reassuring, emotion sharing, belonging, and distracting. The main contribution of this study is that social media can be used as a spontaneous and proactive tool for supporting the student’s resilience during and after the earthquake trauma.

Abstract:
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.

Abstract:
The nomor acak learning model is done by randomly giving number to each student and making them remember it from the beginning to the end of the lecture. The function was to make each student be more active in the teaching and learning activities, since they must be prepared with their respective material if the number was called. This research employed a quasi-experimental research method with one group pre-test/post-test design. The determinant coefficient data of the effect of nomor acak models on the effectiveness of primary teacher education students obtained a class A data of 58.21%, class B of 36% and class C of 23%. This research was conducted at the primary teacher education program for six months in the Basic Concepts of Art courses to students of 2018. It could be concluded that the nomor acak learning model could improve the learning outcomes of students of the primary teacher education program in the Basic Concepts of Art course.

Abstract:
The following study is based on the hypothesis that the setting up of student councils in second level schools in Cork will support the key considerations of quality, equality, partnership, pluralism and accountability as set out in the government White Paper on Education, 1995. To provide a general background to the research, the study starts by reviewing, in chapter one, the state of education in Ireland to-day. This will include a brief look at student councils in other countries e.g. the USA, England, Canada and Norway. The study will chronicle the path of the recent Irish Education Act from Green Paper to White Paper to Education Bill to Education Act in 1998. The second chapter will examine the literature on student councils in Ireland to date. It will then review the literature on the five key considerations of quality, equality, partnership, pluralism and accountability and state how the setting up of a student council might support these. Chapter three will outline the research methods of the study. A questionnaire will be created, the ftrst part of which will seek information regarding the present position of student councils in Cork second level schools. The second part of the questionnaire will solicit the respondents' perceptions as to whether a student council can help to deliver these principles and whether the present student councils are actually delivering within the schools. All second level schools in Cork will be asked to pat1icipate. The questionnaire will be directed at the teacher co-ordinator of the student councils. In the schools where there is no student council, the deputy principal will be asked to complete the survey. A second questionnaire will be assembled to solicit the perceptions of the students regarding the work of the councils. Chapter four will chronicle the administration of the survey and present its findings. Conclusions will be drawn and stated. Chapter five will discuss the findings of the research and present recommendations that will point the way forward for the Department for Education and Science, teachers and students.

Abstract:
One of the main aims of this research was to determine the perceived long-term consequences of bullying behaviour in schools. Furthermore, this study examined individual's recollections of the nature and prevalence of bullying and experiences of other forms of violence throughout their life-course; in doing so the reliability of individual's retrospective accounts were also assessed. Further still, school pupil's experiences of bullying and exposure to violence and trauma was also examined, as were their typical behavioural responses to scenes of school bullying. This thesis presents the findings of three studies, focusing on individuals experiences of bullying in school, in a sample of undergraduate university students and post- primary school pupils. In Chapter One, a review of the literature surrounding bullying behaviour research is presented, in addition to an overview of the 'cycle of violence' hypothesis, which permeates all aspects of this research. Chapter Two provides an outline of the continuing debate concerning the use of retrospective in bullying behaviour research and a detailed review of all the scales utilised in the first study. The results of Study One are presented in Chapter Three, in which a short-term longitudinal study assessed the reliability and stability of participants (N = 824) memories, the nature of their life-course victimisation experiences and perceived negative consequences of such experiences. A qualitative approach was adopted in Study Two, involving a series of in-depth interviews with self-reported victims (N = 13) of child abuse, bullying in school and domestic violence, all of whom had previously taken part in the first quantitative study; the results of which are presented in Chapter Four. In Chapter Five, the questionnaire booklet was administered to a sample of post-primary pupils (N = 213), within the local area, to assess their experiences of bullying in school and evaluate their perceived 'rules' for behaviour according to their status group. Finally, a summary and discussion of the results are presented in Chapter Six. Results suggest that 31.1 % (N = 256) of university participants recalled having been bullied in school at some point, and a further 11.9% (N = 98) acknowledged having actively taken part in victimising other pupils at school, with individuals most commonly citing verbal bullying (i.e. name calling). Just over two in five victims (44%) stated that they attempted suicide, with the majority reporting more than one attempt. It was determined that 43.0% of victims reported having experienced abuse during childhood (i.e. physical abuse/neglect, sexual abuse, etc), 35.9% indicated that they had experienced bullying in later-life (i.e. workplace harassment); resulting in one in five participants (N = 53; 20.7%) revealing that they had experienced both abuse and further victimisation. Measures in the questionnaire booklet revealed that participants were more likely to experience depression, anger and hostility, compared to those with no experience of bullying in school. Over one in three 'victim only' participants reported a 'fearful' relationship style, and moreover reported the lowest mean scores relating to same and opposite sex self-esteem, but the highest levels regarding emotional loneliness and social isolation. Further still, symptornology analogues with PTSD were found in 11 % of victims. Finally, reliability analysis revealed that individual's recollections were both accurate and stable across the three data collection point (initial, 6 months post, and 12-14 months post). Reponses from the face-to-face interviews supported these findings with participants expressing how their experiences of bullying in school have affected many aspects of the adult life. Results from the schools based research revealed that 18.8% of pupils reported to be 'victim only' and a further 6.6% stated that they were both the victim and a perpetrator of bullying in school, with name calling and exclusion the most commonly cited forms of behaviours reported. With regards to pupil's experiences of violence, individuals reported experiencing 'vivid memories' recollections and feelings of distress in situations which remind victims of their experiences, leading to outbursts of anger and a general sense of wariness. Furthermore, 'bully only' pupils reported the highest overall mean on a measure of aggression, and on a measure of parenting style reported the highest means relating to 'indifference', 'over-control' and 'abuse'. Self- identified victims reported lowest levels of both same and opposite-sex self-esteem and general self-esteem; and highest levels of both emotional loneliness and social isolation.

Abstract:
Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree in Master of Technology: Nursing, Durban University of Technology, 2012.
Background : Work Integrated Learning is an educational approach that aligns academic and workplace practices for the mutual benefit of students and workplaces. Work Integrated Learning like in any other nursing course is essential in primary health care as required by the South African Nursing Council. In the clinical setting, students develop clinical and diagnostic reasoning; they also learn how to make the appropriate clinical decisions which they need as qualified primary health care practitioners. This is achieved through instruction and guidance by lecturers, mentors and clinical staff. However it has been noted that the clinical learning environment confronts students with challenges that are absent from the classroom situation. So this study seeks to explore and describe the experiences of post basic nursing students in primary health care clinics so as to address the challenges that are faced within the clinical settings. Aim of the study The aim of the study was to explore and describe primary health care post basic nursing students’ experiences during clinical placements. Methodology : A descriptive exploratory qualitative approach was used to guide the study. In-depth interviews were conducted with ten primary health care post basic nursing students who were allocated for Work Integrated Learning at the clinics in District A and District B in 2011. The main research question for this study was asked: ‘What are the experiences of primary health care post basic nursing students regarding Work Integrated Learning?’ Results : The findings of this study revealed that Work Integrated Learning is vital for the development of clinical skills amongst primary health care post basic nursing students. However, shortage of staff, inadequate material/ non-human resources, lack of supervision in the clinical facilities, distant clinical facilities and insufficient practice in the clinical skills laboratory were identified as challenges that students experience during Work Integrated Learning placement.

Abstract:
AbstractThe strategic integration of online and in-person learning modalities (referred to as blended learning) is becoming increasingly popular in primary, secondary, post-secondary, and corporate contexts. Some have even called blended learning (BL) the “new normal” in education. This chapter addresses five important questions for scholars interested in contributing to research in this domain. First, how are scholars defining BL? Second, what are some of the common models of BL being used in higher education and K-12 learning environments? Third, what is happening with BL research and practice in different regions of the world? Fourth, what research frameworks have been developed by BL scholars and what are other common frameworks that scholars have borrowed from other domains? Finally, the chapter overviews some of the current BL research around institutional, faculty, and student issues. The global pandemic from 2019 to 2021 has increased administrator, instructor, and student awareness and familiarity with many online learning options. It is likely that blended practices that combine both online and in-person instruction will become increasingly prevalent. Scholars will need to better understand how different blended models and pedagogical practices within those models work to improve learning outcomes, increase access and flexibility for learners, and impact cost efficiencies.

Abstract:
AbstractThe Latin American region is experiencing an educational crisis due to the COVID-19 pandemic since efforts to contain the outbreak will grow the deep educational and economic gaps characterizing this region. During the pandemic, Mexico’s central intervention to continue instructional activities in the basic education system was implementing distance education based on educational television. As expected, this intervention raised different concerns on its effectiveness and how different student populations will be affected. This chapter has four main goals: (a) to describe and analyze educational gaps before the pandemic, identifying the central educational policies implemented in previous decades; (b) to describe and analyze educational policies implemented during the pandemic and how these may affect students at risk; (c) to conduct a prospective analysis to identify potential effects of the sanitary crisis in the administration of the education system in Mexico, and (d) to identify the main policy lessons resulting from the Mexican government initial response to the COVID-19 sanitary crisis.

Abstract:
AbstractShortly after the COVID-19 pandemic arrived in the United States, schools across the country had to enact significant, rapid changes to their instructional models, and schools varied widely in their access to the resources needed to support these efforts. Researchers across the U.S. quickly launched surveys, website reviews, and other data-collection methods to document these shifts. In this chapter, we draw on this research to describe the U.S. K-12 educational context, the policies states adopted, the practices and resources schools offered, and the potential effects on students’ academic, social, and emotional learning. In these discussions we draw particular attention to inequities in educational opportunities across schools serving different student populations. We then discuss how different sources of data will be needed to help identify educational needs and mitigate disparities in instruction and learning post-pandemic.

This chapter aims to present a study that has explored the perceptions of post-primary school teachers, based at St Brigid's College in Derry, Northern Ireland, using Google Classroom (GC) to support pupils in remote and blended learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. The aims and objectives of the study are addressed through a mixed method approach. Data instrumentation consisted of teacher questionnaires, focus groups held with teachers, and semi-structured interviews with members of the senior leadership team (SLT). Quantitative data was analysed through Microsoft Forms, and qualitative data collected from the focus groups and semi-structured interviews was thematically analysed using NVivo. The findings of this study provide insightful suggestions as to the outlook for schools which integrate remote and blended learning systems post-COVID-19. Holistically, parents, guardians, pupils, and staff must be involved to sustain progress made by schools to support and enrich the educational experiences of all shareholders.

Abstract:
Education is about the moulding of young and unprepared minds. It is a process that incorporates enormous inputs and commitment on the part of all stakeholders involved: teachers, peers, parents, and society. The outcome of education is measured in terms of the status person has gained, wealth, physical comfort, standard of living, and social esteem. Higher education plays important role in shaping the future of a student. Management education is one the most popular courses at post-graduate level. Hence, this chapter is an attempt to understand the factors that a student looks for while selecting a B-school. Primary survey is done to understand the factors affecting students' decision in selecting a B-school. It is observed that teaching pedagogy, placements, faculty, specialization, and fees play important roles in a student's decision process.

Abstract:
Engaging undergraduate students in research not only improves discipline-specific knowledge and skillsets, but also exposes them to increased research-related career paths, and motivates their pursuit of graduate study. With an interest in increasing these outcomes among students, the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV) developed the Student Mentoring and Research Training (SMART) program. The primary objective of the program was to provide an increasing number of undergraduate student (UG) research opportunities by building triadic teams comprised of (1) a faculty mentor, (2) a graduate student assistant, and (3) at least three undergraduate students. By utilizing graduate student mentors, in collaboration with faculty researchers, an increased number of undergraduates could benefit from participation in these experiential learning opportunities. SMART also encouraged graduate student professional development as each graduate student oversaw a research project and was responsible for mentoring the UGs over a five-week period of employment. Three professional development workshops were implemented for graduate mentors. Workshops focused on teaching graduate students best practices in teaching of research skills, and building motivation, teamwork, and leadership. Pre- and post-test surveys were used to assess program effectiveness. Findings are reported on SMART program outcomes, which include analyses of quantitative and qualitative data collected from undergraduate student mentees and graduate student mentors during the first year of program implementation.

Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic forced a rapid transition from onsite to online learning spaces for initial teacher education (ITE); with Universities even adopting new modes of pedagogy and assessment. This study explores: (1) how Maltese ITE undergraduate early years and postgraduate primary education students dealt with more remote forms of learning during the pandemic in Malta, and (2) the teaching/lecturing modes used, by lecturers, for remote learning, assessment and concerns that tie-in with broader student wellbeing. The data were gathered through an online quantitative survey designed to collect information about ITE students’ views. Student responses strongly suggest that in the eventuality of an ongoing vaccination ‘post-COVID’ era, ITE within HE programmes should consider revisiting the course content and delivery, supporting and fostering, blended and online approaches. A ‘blind spot’ reflecting the struggle for independence, autonomy, and control during COVID-19 in a postcolonial Maltese Higher Eduction context also emerged. The insights gained highlight how ITE students’ views on their experiences of online pedagogy, assessment, and how these new modes impacted their wellbeing within a Maltese HE context can serve to inform policy and practice. These results emphasize the need to promote participatory research amongst university students as key to inform HE policy and practice.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper describes six final year undergraduate research projects supported by a collaboration between the Whittle Laboratory at the University of Cambridge and Reaction Engines (RE), a UK aerospace company. The collaboration is now in its fourth year of projects relating to RE’s Synergetic Air Breathing Rocket Engine (SABRE). The approach taken in these projects combines modern teaching pedagogy with a best practice methodology for industrial-academic collaboration and a well established framework for structuring research problems. This paper explains how the three methodologies are tailored and adapted for use with final year undergraduate research projects. The approach is mapped on to an annual project cycle which begins with the industry and academic partners deciding which topics to investigate and proceeds through student selection, the project work itself and concludes with student assessment and end-of-year reporting. The projects combine analytical, computational and experimental work and have covered counter-rotating turbomachinery, S-ducts in compressors and Helium Turbine design, all of which are topics of primary importance to the design of SABRE. Following descriptions of each of the six completed projects, the impact of the work and lessons learned are considered from the point of view of the students, the industrial partner and the academic supervisors. Overall, the students found the work extremely engaging and have all been encouraged to pursue careers in engineering, either in industry or through post-graduate study. For the industry partner the collaboration provides expertise and an approach which is not available in-house as well providing a ‘second look’ at key technical questions. For the academics involved, the opportunity to lead research on a ‘real’ problem with an industrial partner has proved highly motivating as well as providing opportunities for personal and career development.

Abstract:
Following the launch of Qatar’s National Vision 2030, environmental development was highlighted as one of the Vision’s four pillars, emphasizing the importance of developing people’s awareness of their duty in maintaining the country’s environment for future generations. In addition, environmental education can be combined with various approaches, such as STEM and problem-solving skills, making it an excellent way to engage students in a sustainable program. A distinctive E-STEM program titled “Problem-Solving” (PS) was developed in Qatar amid regular educational reforms to improve primary school pupils’ problem-solving abilities. During this study, 346 kids (202 females and 144 males) from 14 different public and private primary schools were involved in STEM workshops on environmental issues, encouraging them to develop solutions to the problem. The study used a mixed-method approach to measure program efficacy, with a statistical analysis performed using data collected from four separate workshops over two years from 2018 to 2019. This research and development project used pre and post-questionnaires and a qualitative method for evaluating student problem-solving skills. The outcomes of the SWOT analysis also provided an overview of the program’s efficacy in involving students by demonstrating their collaborative problem-solving skills about environmental issues.

Abstract:
T eacher education, which encompasses teaching, teaching effectiveness, the factors that determine teachers' thought processes and performances, and the social policies that affect teachers in all aspects and stages of their careers, is the fundamental groundwork and primary foundation, for attemptingto undertake various innovative and model learning and teaching approaches. However, a number of studies have indicated that teacher education does not adequately prepare teachers to teach with technology. In light ofthis paradoxical situation, the author attempted to integrate content, pedagogy and technology when teaching her post-graduate student teachers. In addition, technology was used to foster peer learning, so that participants could learn through a holistic approach in an experiential environment, rather than using technology as an add-on tool. An institutional standard questionnaire and a focus group meeting were conducted as part of this study, to gather feedback from the participants in the study, on the new learning approach, and the grades that these student teachers obtained for their individual work and group project were analyzed. It was found that the participants embraced both a peer and blended learning approach, and yet the grades that they obtained for their group projects were not superior to the grades on their individual assignments.

Abstract:
Enrollments in Mechanical Engineering programs continue to increase. Unfortunately, increases in faculty size have not kept pace at many universities, resulting in large course enrollments in even junior- and senior-level major courses. The primary goals of this study were to increase (or at least maintain) the quality of instruction, and increase student competency and understanding in a large lecture course having the same instructional personnel resources as a course with 60% of the enrollment. Hybrid and problem-based learning techniques, along with two optional weekly recitation sessions and an online discussion forum were incorporated into the course to meet these goals. The course, a classical controls course, is one in which course concepts are generally considered to be a bit abstract to a considerable percentage of the class. The instructor had previously taught the course several times, so a well-paced course schedule and solid foundation of course notes were already in place. Student evaluation instruments in previous offerings included weekly homework, bi-weekly short quizzes, two exams and the final exam. For the large lecture course (with an enrollment of 84 students), the evaluation instruments (homework, quizzes and exams) remained the same; however, the students formed self-selected triad teams. Approximately two-thirds of the quizzes, one-half of the homework and sixty percent of the final exam questions were assigned to the triad teams (the balance and both mid-term exams were individual submissions). The primary advantages of group quizzes and assignments were multi-fold: they facilitated group learning and peer-teaching to reinforce course concepts and allowed the instructor and teaching assistant to give the type of detailed feedback on submissions that would have been difficult or impossible to give on 84 individual submissions. Course notes (including short Echo360 modules), handouts and homework and quiz solutions were maintained on an online course management system (i.e., Blackboard); additionally, the use of an online threaded discussion forum, Piazza, allowed students to post/answer questions (anonymously, if desired) and follow discussions about course content. Team-based learning techniques were heavily used in latter course topics; the assigned readings, along with online course notes were used to prepare the students for the individual readiness assessment tests (RATs). Students discussed their answers on the RAT instruments in their triad groups (another opportunity for peer teaching) and disclosed group answers (which generally reflected a much higher level of understanding) to the entire class. Student assessment of course techniques and a comparison of traditional (lecture-based) and hybrid-/problem-based techniques will be used to assess the efficacy of the problem-based approach and to suggest improvements for future offerings.

Abstract:
Introduction Virtual classroom training (VCT) is a novel educational method that permits accessible, distanced interactive expert instruction. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of VCT in comparison to face-to-face training (FFT) and non-interactive computer-based learning (CBL) for basic surgical skills training. Methods 72 participants recruited from five London medical schools underwent stratified block randomisation into three equal intervention groups based on subjective and objective suturing experience. VCT was delivered via the BARCO weConnect platform and FFT was provided by expert instructors. Optimal student-to-teacher ratio was used, 12:1 for VCT and 4:1 for FFT. The assessed task was interrupted suturing with hand-tied knots. The primary outcome was post-intervention Objective Structured Assessment of Technical Skills (OSATS) score, adjudicated by two blinded experts and adjusted for baseline proficiency. Results VCT was non-inferior to FFT (adjusted difference 0.44, 95% CI: -0.54 to 1.75, delta 0.675), VCT was superior to CBL (adjusted difference 1.69, 95% CI 0.41 to 2.96) and FFT was superior to CBL (adjusted difference 1.25, 95% CI 0.20 to 2.29). FFT alone was associated with student travel expenses (mean £4.88, SD 3.70). Instructor hours used per student for VCT and FFT were 0.25 and 0.75, respectively. Conclusion VCT has a similar educational benefit to FFT and is a suitable modality of high-quality surgical skills education. VCT provides greater accessibility and resource efficiency compared to FFT. VCT satisfies the requirement for social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic and is better than non- interactive CBL. VCT has the potential to improve global availability and accessibility of surgical skills training.

Abstract:
Entrepreneurship can be a solution to the dilemma: “Labour is a form of education, a way of ensuring existence, gaining autonomy, a physical and mental training, a way of oppression, a form of occupational therapy, all together or …none of the variants listed?” Depending on the reference field and the perspectives offered by different specializations, work is defined as a physical or intellectual action, which develop material and emotional satisfactions. Especially in closed environments, it is practiced as a form of occupational therapy (ergotherapy), because it ensures a sense of usefulness, helping to maintain somato-psycho-emotional health. The schoolmasters highlight the formative values of work for students: evaluate the native skills and abilities, lead to the discovery of new unknown interests and talents, support the student in his perfection by inoculating the ideas of responsibility, order, discipline, etc. Before 1989, in detention environment labour was mandatory, but now, labour is an optional right. The two perspectives are diametrically opposed, and the issue was addressed only from the perspective of reduced job supply, both during detention and after release. There are few publications with strict reference to this topic. In general, the social reintegration of post-execution prisoners is addressed. At this moment, the main problem highlighted is integration/reintegration on the labour market, as the main facilitating step of maintaining the accumulations during the detention period and a primary factor for avoiding the recurrence. However, those who have served a custodial sentence do not have a "ticket" to the labour market. To be known and solved, the situation should be addressed continuously: prevention before detention, education/re-education/training / retraining during detention and placement on the labor market / retraining immediately after release.

Abstract:
Focus on decentralisation as a way to improve service delivery has led to significant research on the processes of education-policy adoption and implementation at the district level. Much of this research has, however, focused on understanding the working of the district education bureaucracies and the impact of increased community participation on holding teachers to account. Despite recognition of the role of political elites in prioritising investment in education, studies examining this, especially at the district-government level, are rare. This paper explores the extent and nature of engagement of political elites in setting the education-reform agenda in two districts in the state of West Java in Indonesia: Karawang (urban district) and Purwakarta (rural district). The paper shows that for a country where the state schooling system faces a serious learning crisis, the district-level political elites do show considerable levels of engagement with education issues: governments in both districts under study allocate higher percentages of the district-government budget to education than mandated by the national legislation. However, the attitude of the political elites towards meeting challenges to the provision of good-quality education appears to be opportunistic and tokenistic: policies prioritised are those that promise immediate visibility and credit-taking, help to consolidate the authority of the bupati (the top political position in the district-government hierarchy), and align with the ruling party’s political positioning or ideology. A desire to appease growing community demand for investment in education rather than a commitment to improving learning outcomes seems to guide the process. Faced with public pressure for increased access to formal employment opportunities, the political elites in the urban district have invested in providing scholarships for secondary-school students to ensure secondary school completion, even though the district-government budget is meant for primary and junior secondary schools. The bupati in the rural district, has, on the other hand, prioritised investment in moral education; such prioritisation is in line with the community's preferences, but it is also opportunistic, as increased respect for tradition also preserves reverence for the post of the bupati—a position which was part of the traditional governance system before being absorbed into the modern democratic framework. The paper thus shows that decentralisation is enabling communities to make political elites recognise that they want the state to prioritise education, but that the response of the political elites remains piecemeal, with no evidence of a serious commitment to pursuing policies aimed at improving learning outcomes. Further, the paper shows that the political culture at the district level reproduces the problems associated with Indonesian democracy at the national level: the need for cross-party alliances to hold political office, and resulting pressure to share the spoils. Thus, based on the evidence from the two districts studied for this paper, we find that given the competitive and clientelist nature of political settlements in Indonesia, even the district level political elite do not seem pressured to prioritise policies aimed at improving learning outcomes.
