Thirteen Physics Education students partook in the research. Data were garnered by open-ended questionnaires and semi-structured interviews, the results of which were analyzed by directed content analysis bound to Academic emotion theory. The research findings explicate that blended literature circles pave the path to propelling reading-to-learn endeavors. Despite sub-optimal reading proficiency, the students’ academic emotions depict the efforts towards achievement goals, primarily laden with a mastery approach, and social goals through dialogic reading in blended literature circles.

The population in this study was the parents of students in Banggae, Majene, West Sulawesi. Samples were selected using the non-probability sampling technique; in this case, it was an accidental sampling. The instrument used to obtain data was a questionnaire. Data were then processed in three stages, namely editing, coding, and tabulating. Data were also analyzed with a descriptive analysis using a percentage formula. The results of this study indicated that parents were ready for face-to-face learning for their children at school.

However, after the fall of Suharto’s administration in May 1998, the Indonesian education policy has significantly transformed from centralization to decentralization - which is popularly known as school-based management (SBM). This change is because of the arrival of the Law No.22/1999 (later reviewed by the Law 32/2004) about “Local Government” (provinces and districts). The purposes of this paper are first to discuss the characteristics of school-based management and the practices of SBM and second, to explore the motives of Indonesian government to apply school-based management in education in the digital era. The orienting question for this study is: Are all school-levels actors and district level actors ready for dealing with the characteristics of school-based management and the practices of SBM? Recommendations for education policy reform in the digital era in Indonesia for good governance are discussed, particularly the motives to move from bureaucratic-centralism management to school-based management.","PeriodicalId":211413,"journal":{"name":"Indonesian Research Journal in Education |IRJE|","volume":"246 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115257953","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results of analysis reveal that there are four themes namely: spirituality and morality, personal attribute, nationalism, and knowledge and scientific attitude. However, the research results indicate the inclusion of selected values and norms of personal attributes, the unbalanced portion of the themes within the textbook and minimal representation of the knowledge development, specifically in regards to the development of English skills.

A teacher needs to assess his students both during and at the end of instruction; therefore he needs to have good assessment literacy in order to be able to carry out assessment successfully.

The data were collected using questionnaires, semi-structured interview, classroom observation, and documentation. Data obtained from questionnaires were analysed using descriptive statistics, while data obtained from the semi-structured interview were analysed using thematic analysis through coding. Data obtained from classroom observation and documents were used to verify the ones from the questionnaire and interview. The findings revealed that teachers of English were in fairly literate category of assessment literacy; not every teacher carried out formative assessment regularly; they encountered difficulties in assessing students learning due to lacked understanding in interpreting the basic competence of the curriculum which led to inappropriate indicators formulation; assessment items did not match with the formulated indicators; and lacked of variety in constructing question items for formative assessment. These difficulties are due to that they lacked of experience in constructing assessment items and lacked of formal training related to test items construction. These findings lead to the conclusion that teachers assessment literacy needs to be enhanced so that they could carry out accountable assessment to support their students learning.","PeriodicalId":211413,"journal":{"name":"Indonesian Research Journal in Education |IRJE|","volume":"102 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128998516","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
