PurposeTo investigate information literacy (IL) skills of secondary students in Singapore after integration of these skills into school curriculum. The study also explored cyber wellness skills of the students.Design/methodology/approachA survey questionnaire was used to collect data from 14 secondary schools, located in different geographical zones of the country. A total of 3,306 secondary students participated in this survey. A scoring scheme was devised to assess IL skills of the students.FindingsThe students achieved an overall mean score of 52.6%, which is considered as a “middle” level of IL competency. The students obtained high mean scores for two IL skills: “defining information task and analysing information gaps” (60.5%) and cyber wellness (60.1%). Lowest scores were achieved for two IL skills: “selecting information sources” (47.4%) and “appraising the information process and product” (48.0%).Research limitations/implicationsThis study has not investigated IL knowledge of teachers, responsible for teaching IL components. Similarly, content analysis of school textbooks, integrating IL skills, could be useful.Practical implicationsIt appeared that integration of IL skills into school curriculum showed limited success in imparting these skills. This paper suggests measures for improving the integration of IL skills into school curriculum. Findings of this survey will be useful to curriculum planners, education administrators, instructors teaching IL skills and school librarians.Originality/valueThis study was unique as, in addition to standard IL skills, it also investigated cyber wellness skills. It was desirable as now social media have become a popular source for information seeking and sharing.

Mathematical competency can be referred to one of the most essential competencies in the context of the exponential development of the knowledge-based economy and globalization, especially when people make financial decisions based on their mathematical literacy. Numeracy is considered one of the critical skills of the people. To develop and evaluate numeracy, the national curricula of many countries across the world, such as Australia, Germany, Singapore, or Programme for International Student Assessment - PISA have selected Consumer and financial context as teaching and assessing content. In Vietnam, in the general education curriculum mandated by the Ministry of Education and Training in December 2018, numeracy, which originated and developed substantially in Mathematics, is one of the seven general capabilities. In this paper, we present a literature review of numeracy and several pedagogical recommendations to develop junior high school students' numeracy through the context of consumer and financial literacy.

ABTRACT: This article depicts the landscape of teacher professional development (PD) in Singapore, one of the world’s top-performing countries in education. We provide an overview of the resources available to the approximately 30,000 teachers within the 350 primary and secondary schools run by the Ministry of Education (MOE). We focus on the three main PD providers: the National Institute of Education, the Academy of Singapore Teachers and six Centers of Excellence, and schools themselves. Guided by the “Teacher Growth Model,” these providers aim at making PD coherent with teachers’ interests, the needs of schools, and the national curriculum. Teachers in Singapore are given the exceptionally high allotment of 100 voluntary hours of PD per year. There are multiple types of activities teachers can engage in, ranging from formal/structured courses and programs to more informal/reform-based initiatives (action research, lesson study). Teachers with different levels of expertise and career paths have access to different PD opportunities. Most PD is subject-specific and provides teachers with opportunities for networked learning, collegial sharing, and collaboration. In fact, all MOE schools have been recently mandated to become Professional Learning Communities (PLC). We conclude that this comprehensive set of PD resources, considered as a whole, presents the features of “high-quality” PD described in the international literature. However, we suggest that more research is needed to examine the extent to which such an ambitious PD model is enhancing teachers’ knowledge and pedagogies, and ultimately students’ learning.

Studying language education in the preschool sector of a country, which is multinational and has a high quality education system, is useful in terms of implementing effective and proven means of updating and optimizing of domestic preschool education. The purpose of the article is to study and analyze Singapore’s language policy and ways of its implementation in the country’s preschool education sector. Methods. The work is based on the methodological principles of scientificity, objectivity and integrity. The research is based on such methods of scientific researches as the analysis of scientific literature and normative documents, synthesis, comparison, generalization and systematization of the received data.Research results. The main directions of the state activity on providing bilingual education in the preschool sector of Singapore, as well as unification and regulation of the functioning of Singapore’s preschool educational institutions in the field of language education are studied. It was found that the conceptual framework “Nurturing early learners”, proposed by the Ministry of Education of Singapore, allowed creating a single conceptual and methodological basis for the development of curricula in each individual preschool institution. Another focus of the Singaporean government has been turned to reducing the impact of English and Chinese dominance in the country’s preschool sector and to increasing the number of Malay and Tamil language programs in preschools for ensuring equal access to language education for all Singaporean ethnic groups by opening new kindergartens with an offer to study English and three native languages (optional).Conclusions. It was determined that the country’s bilingual policy was implemented with the pragmatic goal of uniting a multinational society and achieving economic growth, on the one hand, and preserving the national heritage, culture and traditions of the ethnic groups living in Singapore, on the other. Despite the private nature of Singapore’s pre-school education sector, the government is actively involved in regulating it, including language education, ensuring the principle of meritocracy by meeting the needs of all ethnic groups in language education at the pre-school level.Key words: language policy, language education, bilingualism, preschool education, English, native lan-guage, educational process. Дослідження особливостей мовної освіти в дошкільному секторі країни, яка є мультинаціональ-ною за складом населення і має високоякісну освітню систему, є корисним з точки зору запроваджен-ня ефективних та апробованих засобів оновлення та оптимізації вітчизняної дошкільної освіти. Мета статті полягає у вивченні та аналізі мовної політики Сінгапуру й засобів її реалізації в дошкільному секторі освіти країни. Методи. Робота ґрунтується на методологічних принципах науковості, об’єктив-ності та цілісності. В процесі дослідження застосовувалися такі методи наукових досліджень, як ана-ліз наукової літератури і нормативних документів, синтез, порівняння, узагальнення й систематизація отриманих даних.Результати дослідження. Простежено основні напрями діяльності держави із забезпечення білінгвальної освіти в дошкільному секторі Сінгапуру, а також уніфікації та регулювання діяльності закладів дошкільної освіти Сінгапуру у сфері мовної освіти. Встановлено, що запропонована Мініс-терством освіти Сінгапуру концептуальна рамка «Виховання дітей раннього віку» дала змогу створити єдину концептуальну й методологічну базу для розроблення навчальних програм в окремих закладах дошкільної освіти. Іншим напрямом діяльності уряду Сінгапуру стало зменшення наслідків домінуван-ня англійської та китайської мов у дошкільному секторі країни, збільшення кількості програм вивчен-ня малайської і тамільської мов у дошкільних закладах освіти задля забезпечення рівного доступу до мовної освіти для представників усіх етносів Сінгапуру за рахунок відкриття нових дитячих садочків із пропозицією вивчення англійської мови та трьох рідних мов на вибір.Висновки. Визначено, що білінгвальна політика країни запроваджена з прагматичною метою об’єд-нання багатонаціонального суспільства й досягнення економічного росту, з одного боку, та збережен-ня національної спадщини, культури й традицій етносів, які проживають у Сінгапурі, з іншого боку. Незважаючи на приватний характер дошкільного сектору освіти, уряд країни бере активну участь у його регулюванні та спрямовує свої зусилля на забезпечення потреб усіх етнічних груп населення в мовній освіті.Ключові слова: мовна політика, мовна освіта, білінгвізм, дошкільна освіта, англійська мова, рідна мова, навчальний процес.

Perubahan zaman menuju era globalisasi menuntut dunia pendidikan untuk berkiprah secara aktif mempersiapkan generasi muda dalam menyongsong tantangan zaman. Kerangka pendidikan yang selama ini diterapkan juga harus beradaptasi dengan tuntutan zaman. Dalam menghadapi tantangan ini, sejumlah Negara telah menginisiasi diberlakukannya reformasi pendidikan. Artikel ini membahas tentang program-program refomasi pendidikan di dua Negara dengan latar belakang dan kondisi serta ideologi yang berbeda yaitu Singapura dan Indonesia. Diantara program refomasi pendidikan di Singapura adalah Teach less, Learn More; Thinking School, Learning Nation, dan School Excellent Model. Sedangkan kebijakan refeormasi pendidikan di Indonesia diantaranya diselenggarakan dengan desentralisasi pendidikan dalam kerangka manajemen berbasis sekolah, Kurikulum Tingkat Satuan Pendidikan dan Kurikulum 2013, serta program sertifikasi guru. Dari hasil pembahasan, dapat diketahui bahwa Singapura telah berhasil menyelenggarakan reformasi pendidikan. Hal ini dapat dilihat dari kualitas pendidikan Singapura yang masuk dalam ranking teratas Negara-negara dengan pencapaian standar pendidikan internasional. Sementara itu, Indonesia nampak masih harus berjuang untuk mencapai tujuan reformasi pendidikan. Hasil implementasi pendidikan yang berbeda di kedua Negara ini tentu dikarenakan perbedaan latar belakang, serta kondisi sosial, ekonomi, politik budaya dan geografis kedua Negara tersebut. Dengan demikian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa banyak factor yang mempengaruhi keberhasilan penyelengaraan reformasi pendidikan di sebuah Negara. AbstractGlobalization requires education to actively take part in preparing the young generation to face the challenges. The educational framework which has been implemented should also adapt to the existing new challenges. To deal with this, a number of countries have initiated the implementation of educational reform. This article discusses educational reformation programs conducted in two countries which have a different background as well as different ideology, social, economic, political, and geographical circumstances i.e., Singapore and Indonesia. Some of the main educational reform agendas in Singapore are Teach less, Learn More; Thinking School, Learning Nation, and School Excellent Model. Meanwhile, educational reform programs in Indonesia are conducted through educational decentralization within the framework of school-based management, School-level Curriculum, and the 2013 curriculum and teacher certification. It can be understood that Singapore has succeeded in conducting educational reform. This can be seen from the quality of Singapore's education which has been ranked high in achieving the benchmark of international education standard. Meanwhile, Indonesia still needs to struggle to achieve the desired outcomes of educational reform agendas. The differing result of educational reform revealed in these two countries resulted from different backgrounds of the countries. Thus, it can be concluded that there are a number of factors influencing the success of educational reform agendas in a country.

This paper explores the preliminary outcomes of research into the place and role of cultural diversity in primary music classes at five International Schools in Singapore. It highlights the ways in which school philosophy, policy, curriculum and in-service training influence teacher practice. The research provides insights into the challenges teachers face when diversifying their music programmes in addition to the areas of support that allow a programme based on cultural diversity to flourish and remain successful. The results of interviews with music specialists at these schools suggest that music programmes at International Schools in Singapore provide examples of best practice in culturally diverse music education. The success of these programmes is due to several identifiable factors such as strong philosophical and curricula foundations, quality in-service training and the regular involvement of culture bearers and visiting artists.

PurposeThis paper reports a qualitative research study of comparative analysis of global citizenship education (GCE) in two primary schools, one international school in Singapore (Stamford International) and an independent school in Australia (Coastal College). The research focussed on how these two schools implemented GCE through the adoption of international education models, utilising the International Primary Curriculum (IPC) or the International Baccalaureate Programme (IB), creating hybrid curricula. Central to this research is the examination of educational practices, which address global citizenship education in each of the two schools.Design/methodology/approachQualitative data from interview transcripts, document analysis, website analysis as well as field notes were analysed both inductively and deductively, teasing out the key themes from interviews, various documents such as policy papers, curriculum materials, syllabuses, the websites and other forms of documents that shed more light on the issues presented. The analysis of each case study began with a brief overview of the global citizenship education policies in the two schools and of their international curricula models, followed by a separate interpretation and juxtaposition of interview data (Phillips and Schweisfurth, 2014).FindingsThe key focus is examining the interplay between the global and national, which both schools have acknowledged in their design of the curricula. It is integral to note that globalization differs within different communities around the world with a unique and multifaceted interplay of global and national factors termed as a “global-local nexus”. A key overarching finding relates to the tensions between educational domains and neo-liberal market rationales, which had affected the schools' decisions in curricula and GCE enactment within both schools. Despite their commitment to GCE ideals, schools were mindful about being distinctive and remaining competitive within their educational markets.Research limitations/implicationsIn the study, the ideas of hybridity and “mixture and fusion” of curricula elements to generate new practices in local contexts against global influences have been explored. These ideas form the key features of the curriculum design in both schools and of the contexts in which the schools were situated. Even though the selected case study schools were international and independent and were not expected to fully adhere to government guidelines from their respective country’s policies, they were staged against these policies, which in turn influenced the curriculum initiatives and pedagogical approaches of these schools. Thus studying the landscape in which these two schools are situated provided a better understanding of the various influences – geo-political, formal policy, school-specific factors – which contributed to the knowledge base of global citizenship education studies for multi-ethnic nations such as Singapore and Australia.Practical implicationsAs more national school systems embrace diversity, an international education approach has been adopted. This study affirms the idea proposed by Hayden, Thompson and Bunnell (2016), that the use of “international” is less relevant in categorising schools that seek to embrace GCE. It is more appropriate to use “cosmopolitan,” as proposed by Rizvi (2008), where the focus is more broadly on acquiring knowledge about cultural trajectories and social identities and reinforcing the idea of global connectivity as is evident in both case study schools. The focus is on understanding and acting on local issues within the “broader context of the global shifts that are reshaping the very nature of localities” (Rizvi, 2008, p. 21). One of the key things to note is that the global and international approaches are seldom enacted in their pure form. Schools that have adopted international education are usually unique and heterogeneous in nature, and what they have done is very much dependent on their histories, their geographical locations and the economic and political statuses. This is evident in both case study schools.Social implicationsThis study has added to the existing literature by providing a rich comparative investigation of global citizenship education in two countries, Australia and Singapore. The research provided the opportunity to study different models of internationally minded schools, with similar GCE ambitions. As the study explored two types of schools in two different countries, there is no claim of generalisability of findings to all the schools in these two countries. However, educators and researchers who are interested in this field could reflect on the themes that have emerged from this study and make an informed decision on the possible transferability to their own contexts.Originality/valueBesides its contribution to existing literature, the study has also shown that for effective integration of GCE in schools, either in a national or international education system, it is necessary for a comprehensive understanding of the GCE principles. The results drawn from the study indicate that the ambiguity of the concept of GCE can result in different interpretations by school leaders, teachers and students, thus affecting its enactment in schools. In order to better understand and apply GCE, an effective conceptual model would provide a critical understanding of the multi-faceted nature of global citizenship education. A critical GCE requires schools to reflect on the entire curriculum, ensuring a seamless integration of GCE into curricula and practices.

A variety of programming models, both part- and full-time, have been designed to provide gifted children with appropriate instruction to fulfil their needs and potential. In January 1993, The Chinese High School, an independent school in Singapore, started on a pull-out gifted program where students are selected to attend a challenging, differentiated and enriched curriculum in Mathematics, Science and Computer Science. Interesting enrichment activities carried out in the programme included a Mentor Link programme and a creative computing camp. The strength of such a programming model is that while the gifted students are provided with opportunities for rapid progress and challenging activities within Mathematics, Science and Computer Science, they also have the opportunities to study and interact with their regular classmates and to be leaders in their regular classes. The pull-out gifted programme, as set up in Chinese High, was able to combine the advantages of both full- and part-time programmes. This paper presents the characteristics and activities of the pull-out programme.

Modeling is a flexible, powerful, and engaging tool for middle school students to use to enhance their problem-solving skills. In this article, we describe one teacher's first efforts to develop her students' modeling expertise in a variety of arithmetic word problems. This modeling approach emanates, in part, from our observations of Singapore schools and curricula during the year 2001. We initially describe some of the basis for modeling that is grounded in current research and standards documents.

Adolescents comprise a substantial proportion of the at risk population for sexually transmissible diseases and AIDS. They are also potentially amenable to the curricular influences of the high school. This study uses adolescents' perspectives and concerns regarding their sexuality and sexual relationships in which receptivity to the messages of health and sexuality curricula by adolescents provides the central focus for the investigation. The purpose was to investigate the question whether, given the same exposure to similar content and processes in sexuality education curricula in coeducational classrooms, differences in receptivity will occur between male and female high school students. It was found that, as the amount of sexuality education increased, the more receptive adolescents became to its content and processes, with females exhibiting higher receptivity than males.

This study aimed to identify the attitudes of mathematics teachers at high school towards teaching developed mathematics curricula in Jeddah through identifying their attitudes towards: (nature- importance- enjoyment- courses and training programs for developed mathematics curricula as well as the suitability of the developed mathematics curricula with the capabilities of the student). It also aimed to identify the extent of having different attitudes among high school mathematics teachers towards teaching developed mathematics curricula according to the variables (type of qualification- years of experience) and the interaction between the study variables. The study followed the descriptive survey approach and was conducted on (174) mathematics teachers at high schools of the Jeddah City Education Department. The study reached a set of results, the most important of which are: - Attitudes of high school mathematics teachers towards (the nature of developed mathematics curricula- the importance of developed mathematics curricula- the enjoyment of teaching developed mathematics curricula- training courses and programs- the suitability of the developed mathematics curriculum with the student's abilities) came to a high level. - There were no statistically significant differences in the study sample’s responses about the attitudes of mathematics teachers at high schools towards teaching mathematics curricula developed according to the variables (academic qualification- years of experience). Based on the study findings, the researcher recommended the following: the need to pay more attention to the training in the new mathematics curricula for mathematics teachers; working on providing all possible means to develop training and its methods because of its positive impact on teachers' attitudes towards curricula; developing teachers’ positive attitudes towards improved mathematics curricula by setting up enrichment programs to help mathematics teachers deal with the improved mathematics curriculum.

Physical educators from randomly selected high schools (N = 180) in the AAHPERD Central District were surveyed via telephone regarding their required (9th grade) physical education programs. Four researchers scored the 180 instruments, and each instrument was scored independently with a 96% inter-rater reliability. For the entire sample, 52% of the activity units were team sports, 39% individual sports, 4% dance-gymnastics, and 4% adventure-cooperative-recreational. Of the 180 schools, 71% conducted programs in compliance with Title IX. Of the teachers interviewed, 88% of the females and 30% of the males taught outside their socially accepted areas, although they tended to conduct similar curricula. In general, schools delivered traditional multi-activity programs emphasizing team and lifetime sports, while 25% of the schools had programs with a primary emphasis on competitive, contact, male-oriented team activities. Thus, curricula tended to perpetuate the current socially constructed view of gender and physical activity.

Background Stress and burnout are plaguing critical care nurses across the globe and leading to high levels of turnover. Resilience-building strategies such as mindfulness, self-care, and well-being can help shield nurses from the negative effects of workplace stress. As the first line of defense, nursing schools could provide students with strategies that build resilience; however, little is known about the availability of such resources in nursing education. Objectives To determine the prevalence of resources and curricula targeting resilience training and stress reduction at nursing schools across the United States. Methods Raters analyzed publicly available college/ university websites and course catalogs of a sample of nursing schools in the United States to determine the availability of resilience resources and curricula. Results None of the schools surveyed regularly screened their students for burnout syndrome, and only 9% of schools had a formal curriculum that included resilience training. Conclusions Training in practices to build resilience and prevent burnout is essentially absent from accredited nursing schools. This highlights an important opportunity to modify existing curricula to include preventative strategies—such as developing positive coping skills— that could mitigate symptoms of workplace stress in future generations of nurses.

The past year of surgical education and training has been characterised with transformations of curricula, recruitment, regulation and organisational structures. As part of the organisational structure of the postgraduate deaneries in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, schools of surgery have been established or are emerging and are the means of delivery of the new training systems. In Scotland a different organisational structure has emerged with similar purpose, a surgical specialties training board. The establishment of these schools has been varied based on existing local training committee structures and the needs and funds of the deanery. At their heart is high-level deanery and College collaboration enabling the delivery of high-quality education and training programmes in a coordinated manner by local surgeons.

In recent years, prominent organizations have released large-scale policy reports on the state of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education in the United States, with particular emphasis on curricula and instructional practices. The purpose of this paper was to examine the curriculum and instruction occurring at high performing STEM-focused high schools that have no academic conditions for student admission. This study conducted a cross-case analysis across eight case studies of contextually different but well-regarded inclusive STEM high school. Common themes that emerged included different hierarchical levels of design and implementation (classroom-level, cross-cutting school level, school-wide) as well as responsive design of curriculum and instruction. Unique contextual differences are discussed as well as implications for replication of inclusive STEM school design.

The selection of K–12 mathematics curricula has become a polarizing issue for schools, teachers, parents, and other educators and has raised important questions about the long-term influence of these curricula. This study examined the impact of participation in either a National Science Foundation–funded or commercially developed mathematics curriculum on the difficulty level of the first university mathematics course a student enrolled in and the grade earned in that course. The results provide evidence that National Science Foundation–funded curricula do not prepare students to initially enroll in more difficult university mathematics courses as well as commercially developed curricula, but once enrolled students earn similar grades. These findings have important implications for high school mathematics curriculum selection and for future research in this area.

Global climate change is a clear and present danger to our environment, but the impacts of climate change on human health are less known. People in Asian countries are more susceptible to the negative impacts of climate change and the subsequent environmental exposures because of the high population density, rapid urbanization, and natural geography of the region. The objective of this multidisciplinary collaborative ecological study was to explore the impact of environmental exposures such as temperature (°C), noise (db), humidity (%rh), air conditioning exposure time (hours), and distance traveled to school (km) on the comfort and academic success of school children in Singapore. Analysis of a large dataset from the Singapore National Science Experiment revealed a positive correlation between the distance traveled to school and favorable environmental conditions (moderate temperatures, low noise, low humidity, and higher amount of air conditioning time) and student academic performance. The analysis revealed that the distance traveled between home and school for public school students falls within a larger range than that for independent (private) school students. On average, students traveled farther distances to attend schools of higher academic caliber thereby increasing their exposure to environmental pollution. Student exposure to pollution can be minimized if all schools adhere to higher standards of environmental comfort and standardized academic caliber. If students can attend the school closest to their homes, they can minimize their daily pollution exposure due to traffic/commute, thereby mitigating the resultant negative health consequences.

State and Federal education departments have increasingly recognised the importance of community consultation in the development of school curricula, and the requirement for teachers to consult with Indigenous communities is explicit in many curriculum documents. This article reports the findings of research into how teachers of senior Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies are engaging with consultation as part of their work. As Australia moves towards full implementation of a national curriculum that requires the embedding of Indigenous perspectives across all subjects, an understanding of how teachers are currently experiencing community consultation is particularly important.

There is currently worldwide concern about the decline in students’ interest in science. The purpose of this paper is to examine school science curriculum documents to determine whether they explicitly state that they aim to enhance student interest in science. A document analysis was used to compare science syllabi from Canada, Finland, Sweden, UK, USA, Hong Kong, Thailand, Singapore, the Eastern Caribbean states, and Hungary. It was found that about half of these countries did have an explicit aim of enhancing student interest in science at high school level. The remainder either did not have any such aim, or had a partial or implied expectation. These findings were then compared to the results of the international PISA 2006 survey of student interest in science. It was found that those countries in which science curriculum documents made no mention about enhancing student interest (Canada and UK) were below the OECD average for interest in science. However, there were other countries below the OECD average, that did have a curriculum aim to enhance student interest in science. It is concluded that having a stated aim to enhance student interest in science is not enough, by itself, to bring that aim to fruition.

AbstractThis paper deals with the didactic objectives and content from the latest curricula of the different types of schools (schools, colleges, universities) in the D-A-CH regions. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the didactic goals of current and future curricula for primary, secondary, and high school, which are feasible with a single board computer. For this purpose, the curricula are analysed according to digital terms and methods of information technology with a qualitative deductive meta-analysis and assigned to different categories. The results are presented in different diagrams for evaluation, from which the results can be interpreted. The results include a list of digital didactic goals, structured according to school type, competencies, and feasibility, which can be implemented with a single-board computer. All in all, it was found that an inexpensive single-board computer is quite sufficient for the acquisition and implementation of the digital goals and skills to be taught in the curricula. Furthermore, it was found out how the changes in the curricula have established themselves in the different regions with a time lag and which competencies are taught at the individual school levels. The paper concludes with a recommendation for further studies.

In the United States, sex education in schools varies significantly across districts. Many schools operate without state-guided health education curricula, leaving decisions up to individual districts. The purpose of this study was to explore what type of sex education is being offered in U.S. high schools in addition to assessing the frequency of condom access and contraceptive referral. A total of 772 high school superintendents were surveyed with a response rate of 40.4% ( n = 297). Data show most districts teach comprehensive sex education (63%), while only 7% of districts offer condoms to high school students. Twenty-nine percent of superintendents reported their district refers out for contraceptive services to a variety of agencies. School nurses can use this information to inform health policy discussions in their district as well as advocate for awareness among district officials regarding existing health service offerings.

The public school system, the central institution for the formal education of youth in nations throughout the world, provides great potential for the implementation of the principles and methods of Youth Participatory Action Research (Youth PAR). Governmental school systems utilize formal curricula which are reviewed and revised regularly, a professionally trained teaching staff to implement curricula a majority of youth who attend school at least until the legally required age, an annual budget, parental involvement, societal standards and evaluation protocols, and an administrative infrastructure. In contrast to non-standardized, decentralized after-school and other specialized programs, public schools offer innovative programs such as Youth PAR the opportunity to "go-to-scale" to institutionalize the program, to involve teachers in implementation, to build and establish formal curriculum, and to engage large numbers of students on a required, rather than voluntary, basis.

Discipline is essential in class. Without it the educational process is difficult if not impossible. In this manner students and teachers will not meet curricula goals. There are and there will always be some kind of conflicts between teachers and students, but they should not evolve to become a problem that threatens achieving curricula aims. Teachers (especially elderly teachers) often express pessimism about contemporary students. They say that today's students have less knowledge and that they misbehave more often than previous generations. A research was conducted among students which tried to determine the rate of discipline in schools in Celje to see if these statements are true. Questionnaires were distributed to students of one primary and one high school in Celje, Slovenia. Answers were collected from 234 students. On the one hand, it was found out that senior high school students have the worst level of discipline of all the grades involved in the study. They themselves assess their class atmosphere as less disciplined. They report that teachers use a lot of time to calm the class down. All this is probably a factor in lower average mark that the senior high school students report to have. On the other hand, it was found out that teachers do not react to the disturbance or they are trying to be repressive. These are not the correct ways of dealing with discipline issues. Keywords: state of discipline, contemporary students, discipline problems.

Introduction: Children and young people in India have a high prevalence of dental decay. As part of a broader epidemiological study, we interviewed 10 head teachers to understand the status of, and challenges to, inclusion of oral health education in the curricula of public and private schools in Tamil Nadu, India. Objectives: The two main objectives of this study were (1) to describe the views of head teachers about the implementation of oral health education in school curricula and (2) to identify challenges to achieving oral health education in public and private schools in Tamil Nadu. Method: Qualitative descriptive design, with a purposive sample of 10 head teachers who participated in semi-structured interviews. Thematic coding was used to analyse and report on the data. Results: There is a lack of oral health education in public and private schools in Tamil Nadu, India. Four main types of barriers to the initiation and implementation of oral health education were lack of recognition, academic burden, prioritisation of other health needs and policy inequities. Head teachers acknowledged the lack of oral health education in their schools, yet also acknowledged the importance of oral health education in promoting students’ health. Conclusion: Health curricula in Tamil Nadu schools lack integration of oral health education. Limited access to the services, cultural factors, policy deficiencies, insufficient awareness among policy-makers, the nature of the education system and lack of research contribute to the current situation. Policy-makers should address these barriers to enable and promote oral health education strategies in both private and public schools of Tamil Nadu.

Singapore, a small island city-state, has achieved notable economic advancement within 40 years since independence. It is fast becoming a global city and a knowledge society. In education and training, the Singapore system has evolved from its British roots. Macro performance indicators of participation rate, literacy rate and mean years of schooling, show that the current education system can be regarded as highly successful. The contributions of general education as well as technical education and training to the overall success of the nation are often cited. Technical education and training, which is globally perceived as having a lower status than "academic" curricula, has largely overcome its "image" problem in Singapore. Singaporeans have seemingly embraced technical education and training as an accessible, attractive mode of education, which therefore enjoys a high participation rate. The success and quality of technical education and training were affirmed when its main provider, the Institute of Technical Education, became the first educational institution in Singapore to win the Singapore Quality Award in October 2005. This paper provides a review of the contemporary education system and curriculum in Singapore with a focus on technical education and training vis-à-vis a vision of education and training in and for postmodern knowledge societies. Suggestions are made on how the technical education and training sector in Singapore can further develop and thrive in the 21st century, while continuing to be accessible and of high quality.

Teaching and learning QM at high school as well as the undergraduate level is a highly non-trivial task. Indeed, major changes are required in understanding the new physical reality, and students have to deal with counterintuitive concepts such as uncertainty and entanglement as well as advanced mathematical tools. In order to overcome these critical issues, a simple approach is presented here, which is based solely on two-vector and 2 × 2 matrix algebra. Furthermore, it could also enable educational institutions to fill the gap between high school curricula and the current scientific and technological advances in physics by allowing students to gain some insight into topics such as qubits and quantum computers. The inspiration behind our proposal as well as its firm theoretical foundation are based on the famous Umdeutung (reinterpretation) paper by W. Heisenberg, which introduces QM in matrix form.

This article provides an implementation fidelity evaluation of the fourth experimental trial of Project Towards No Drug Abuse (TND). Two theoretical content components of the curriculum were examined to increase our understanding of the active ingredients of successful drug abuse prevention programs. A total of 18 senior high schools were randomly assigned by block to receive one of three conditions: cognitive perception information curriculum, cognitive perception information + behavioral skills curriculum, or standard care (control). These curricula were delivered to both regular and continuation high schools students ( n = 2331) by trained project health educators and regular classroom teachers. Across all program schools, the two different curricula were implemented as intended, were received favorably by students, and showed significant improvements in knowledge specific to the theoretical content being delivered. This pattern of results suggests that the experimental manipulations worked as intended, and thus, permit the attribution of future behavioral outcome differences between conditions to differences in content of Project TND material provided rather than to differences in the fidelity of delivery. Further, our findings indicate that Project TND can be implemented effectively with low and high risk youth in a general environment as well as with high risk youth in a more specialized environment.

LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in English; abstract also in Chinese.This is a qualitative study of the concerns that Singapore secondary school coaches have with psychological skills training (PST). Two hundred and three coaches were asked to complete the Stages of Concern Questionnaire. The coaches were categorized into four coaching levels. The survey data demonstrated high levels of informational and personal concerns of the lower level coaches and high consequence concerns for the club level and national youth coaches. A group of four coaches, one from each level of coaching agreed to be interviewed in connection with the study. The interview questions were based on an analysis of the survey data. Results of the study revealed three dominant lines of discourse which went beyond the use of PST in schools and which appeared to be systemic concerns about teaching physical education and coaching in public schools. These included issues were closely aligned to existing concepts prevalent in the professional socialisation literature including marginality, isolation and wash-out. It was considered that these concerns would have a negative effect on the likelihood of coaches introducing PST in local schools.本文嘗試探討星加坡中學體育敎練的心理技能訓練，203位敎練接受訪問，結果發現專業的社會化過程可能會影嚮敎練人員的心理技能訓練。

Middle schools were designed to promote exploration in the curriculum in a way that is appropriate for young adolescents. However, this vision has not been fully embraced, and many middle schools still function as junior versions of high school. Gary Weilbacher explores the history of the middle school movement and describes how the interdisciplinary approaches to curriculum found in the STEM, STEAM, and STREAM movements offer an opportunity for middle schools to recover their original vision. In such schools, teachers would work in interdisciplinary teams to develop curricula that enable students to seek answers to questions that they consider important.

This study investigated the initial implementation processes of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) in public and private schools in a single Loui- siana district. Results suggested participants’ high level of concern in many aspects of the implementation of the CCSS in public schools related to the timeline and instability of curriculum decisions, which negatively affected teachers’ confidence levels. Private school teachers experienced greater stability in their curricula, a more feasible timeline of implementation, positive professional development, and positive experiences with CCSS implementation, affecting their teacher identity and impact on students. However, public school teachers reported instability in their curricula, difficult timelines of implementation, unsupportive professional development, and overall negative experiences, affecting their teacher identity and impact on students with the implementation of the CCSS.

Previous work demonstrates that low-income higher achievers fail to apply to selective colleges despite their being admitted at high rates and receiving financial aid so generous that they pay less than at non-selective schools. The Expanding College Opportunities project, a randomized controlled trial, provides individualized information about colleges' net prices, resources, curricula, students, and outcomes. Our prior study shows that the intervention raises students' applications to, admissions at, enrollment, and progress at selective colleges. Here we use survey data to show that it actually changes students' knowledge and decision-making. We highlight topics on which they are misinformed.

The year 1998 marked the 100th anniversary of the colonial relationship between Puerto Rico and the United States. As in the case of most colonial relationships, a tool that has often been utilized in the colonizer's quest to delegitimize their subjects' culture and language has been the school. Of course, these schools' hidden curricula and their insidious contributions towards the attempted cultural and linguistic genocide of the Puerto Rican people have not been met without resistance on behalf of teachers, students, religious, and community leaders (Solís 1994).

Human trafficking severely endangers vulnerable individuals from around the globe. Schools play an important role to educate students the potential harms of human trafficking and should become more intentional in providing support services for children who fall victim to human trafficking. The purpose of this study was to examine how preventive curricula on human trafficking can be successfully implemented in schools because of the direct connection to teaching for social justice. Under the theoretical guise of teaching for social justice, researchers reviewed current literature trends on implementing social justice curricula and current models for teaching about human trafficking. Following the qualitative research case study method, interview data, classroom observation, interval recording, and reflexive notes were collected and analyzed for salient themes to emerge. Findings from this study support the notion that anti–human trafficking curriculum can be implemented in public school settings and yield high engagement among students.

Brazil faces educational and environmental crisis that enhance the importance of valuing geoscientific contents in school cur-ricula, especially in basic education. The modality of technical education integrated to high school courses (TEIHSC) open broad possibilities to build an integrated view of nature and of human interference. However, the current situation is one of great fragmentation of contents and diversification of teaching-learning approaches. As a contribution to understand better the national reality, the present project aims to carry out a survey of geoscientific themes present in the Brazilian official curricula of TEIHS courses and in the curricula of secondary professional education of public schools in Portugal. The distribution of technical schools in this teaching modality – TEIHS comprises the states of São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais and Espíri-to Santo and even in the official curricula of federal technical schools situated in these states. This project should discuss cur-ricular convergences and divergences from the background of the following courses: Agriculture, Surveying, Environmental Control, Forestry, Environment, Mining, Oil and Gas, Environmental Management, Agricultural Production, Forestry and Envi-ronmental Resources, Tourism and Environmental and Rural Tourism. The investigation will produce a comprehensive pano-rama of proposals for including geoscientific contents within this type of school integrative curriculum. The debate should at-tempt to recompose the basic needs to help citizens for taking well-founded decisions about socioeconomic, political and envi-ronmental changes.

The recent spread of technological innovation along with the sophistication of the ICT gadgets have shapped and transformed the realm of learning and teaching including in that of English Language. Alongside, ICT has become more and more inextricable part of human businesses and put a higher level of demand for technological literacy in the part of English learners in order for them to be convident in the digital era membership and participation. This study surveyed 400 high school students as regards: (a) their ICT gadgets perceived ownership; (b) their day-to-day outside and in-school use and; (c) their activities using ICT gadgets for English learning. Findings from the descriptive analyses of the mixed-method study, disclose the positive perception about the gadget ownership. Interestingly, the current study also discovers that there has been a mismatch between the positively perceived ownership of the ICT gadgets and the real day-to-day use as facilitative media for learning, in particular as a useful aids for English language learning. Focusing on the result discussion, issues with regard to discrepancies in the provision of infrastructures and the lack of the support system by school institutions emerge from the FGD analysis highlighting the importance for all decision makers, school institutions, and teachers to consciously start doing something about it. By highlighting the pivotal role of the technology, the researcher suggested a real action for responding to the call for a change in both policy makers and institutonal levels to start integrating the technology into the school curricula.

Throughout the XX century, the term “feminine vocational education” changed its meaning several times. Were the vocational feminine schools aimed at training skilled industrial workers or at educating perspective high-ranked housewives? This paper aims at answering at this question. For such a pursue, it investigates national and local sources and it analyzes how the field changed during the first ten years Fascism ruled Italy. All the vocational schools were struck by a radical reform and by the efforts the Minister of National Education Giuseppe Belluzzo made for rationalize the field. In such a context, curricula taught in feminine vocational schools changed: more time was devoted to domestic economy and to subjects like literature and foreign languages. As the latter were traditionally included in women’ curricula since XIX century, the issue highlights a relevant links between liberal and fascistic educational policies. However, the increasing role domestic education played shows the regime designed vocational feminine schools not for training skilled industrial workers, but for educating mothers. During Fascism, women workers were called to unskilled and low-paid roles for which no training was need; however, lacks in welfare state and economic crisis made the Regime pursue mothers to work hard for saving money and for elevating people’s living standard.

This paper explores and analyses similarities and differences in ICT curricula, policies, and assessment between the Vietnamese and Australian educational systems for the final years of secondary educational level. It was found that while having a common core set of tendencies, the Australian ICT curricula, policies, and assessments differ markedly from the Vietnamese counterparts. These differences can be explained by economic and cultural factors, national-wide educational trends, ICT strategies, and their degrees of implementation in schools. We found that limited constructivist implementations are used in ICT curricula in both countries, as Australian education has high expectations in national evaluations with an emphasis on standardized tests and Vietnamese education is still entrapped in prescriptive lessons of traditional pedagogy, emphasizing transmission model of information. We found that lack of opportunities in teacher professional development in ICT training is common for both countries. While the Australian educational system still struggles, especially in providing opportunities for learning theoretical and programming aspects, multiple challenging aspects were found in the ICT content and policies of the Vietnamese educational system that call for immediate change and improvement. In this sense, Vietnamese administrators are recommended to extensively follow up their educational strategies and policies, in order to make sure that their reforms are adequately implemented in schools. In order to bridge the gap and implement adequate ICT curricula, rigorous professional training in ICT teaching is essential for both Australian and Vietnamese teachers.
