Remedial

Perkembangan teknologi yang tidak ada batas ruang dan waktu telah membawa setiap orang untuk perduli dengan perkembangan tersebut, dengan memanfaatkan dan mengembangkan teknologi yang telah berkembang dalam berbagai instansi. Universitas Pamulang merupakan Universitas dengan Mahasiswa terbanyak se-Indonesia telah menerapkan Aplikasi Program IT dalam berbagai bidang pelayanan dan juga proses akademiknya namun untuk pendaftaran proses perbaikan nilai atau remedial belum dilakukan secara komputerisasi. Oleh karena itulah diharapkan aplikasi ini dapat membantu dan menunjang proses tersebut. Berdasarkan hasil pengujian, pengolahan data yang dilakukan lewat komputerisasi jauh lebih baik dibandingkan dengan cara manual, lebih mudah dan cepat. Adapun perancangan sistem yang digunakan menggunakan metode pendekatan sistem berupa pendekatan analisis dan pemrograman terstruktur sebagai alat bantu proses, sedangkan alat pengembang aplikasi database menggunakan bahasa pemograman PHP dan MySQL sebagai basis data. Setelah melalui tahapan sesuai dengan metode pengembang yang dipilih maka dalam pengimplementasian sistem informasi remedial yaitu secara bersambung dan memiliki tindak lanjut pengujian sistem yang terdiri dari pengujian dimana pengujian ini menggunakan metode pengujian Black Box Testing yang berfokus pada persyaratan fungsional perangkat lunak.

Abstract This study synthesizes the findings of social skills interventions conducted with 3-to 5-year-old children with disabilities between 1975 and June of 1999. An extensive search of the professional literature yielded a total of 23 group-design intervention studies that met criteria for inclusion in the synthesis. The synthesis provides a description of the purpose, procedures, measures, and findings of each study as well as an analysis of effect size outcomes in relation to critical features of the primary studies. Positive outcomes were ...

This article presents paraeducators' perceptions of the role they play in connecting the school to its community. Forty-nine paraeducators employed in various educational settings participated in focus-group interviews. Paraeducators reported close relationships with students and their parents that provided the basis for the paraprofessionals to act as connectors between parents and teachers, parents and community services, students and teachers, students and their parents, and students and their peers. The participants shared how they provided connections between the student and curriculum by using specific strategies aimed at helping students learn. The study uncovered the barriers that hamper the paraprofessional role as a connector.

This paper estimates the causal effect of taking a course in quantitative reasoning on students’ academic performance and classroom peer-group composition at a liberal arts college. To identify effects, the paper compares the outcomes of otherwise similar students who barely passed a baseline quantitative skills assessment (not taking the course) with students who barely failed (taking the course). The regression-discontinuity estimates show little impact on academic outcomes for student close to the passing cutoff, including grades on subsequent courses with quantitative content, but we are unable to distinguish small from zero effects. Exogenous course assignment does affect the composition of students’ classroom peer groups in subsequent years. The effects can only be generalized to students in the vicinity of the passing threshold (but not students with much worse quantitative skills at the baseline). We discuss implications for research and policy on remediation.

For the past 18 years, we have engaged in a program of research designed to improve the literacy of poor culturally and linguistically diverse students and English language learners (ELL) in urban elementary schools. Intervention research has addressed the issue of what works best, how it can be applied and sustained schoolwide, and how computer and information management technology can improve quality and reduce teachers' work loads. The net product of this research is the ClassWide Peer Tutoring Learning Management System (CWPT-LMS). In this article, we report on use of the CWPT-LMS in the literacy instruction of elementary-level ELL. Five ELL teachers and 117 students in a multiracial/multiethnic urban elementary school, including students with disabilities, participated in the study. Results indicated that ELL made considerable progress in mastering the curriculum over periods ranging from 15 to 21 weeks of school across teachers, teachers implemented CWPT to high standards ...

An adapted version of the Teacher/Staff Skillstreaming Checklist was used to determine the level, type, and area of social skills instruction provided to general and special education teachers. Nine universities participated in the study in which facilitators advertised the adapted questionnaire to licensed general and special education teachers enrolled in university-based degree programs over a 6-month period. A total of 237 participants completed the questionnaire. Results indicate that general and special education teachers receive a limited amount of direct and incidental social skills instruction in their preservice and/or in-service training programs. The general and special education teachers reported receiving more instruction in particular areas of social skills within their in-service training. Special education teachers who teach in self-contained settings did not receive more social skills instruction than did resource room teachers in preservice or in-service training ...

Educating secondary students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) is often an overwhelming task that places high demands on teachers. Existing research on effective social-emotional/behavioral and academic interventions for students with EBD is limited but expanding. Unfortunately, school and life outcomes for these students are dismal compared to other students. Certainly, there is much to learn about achieving positive outcomes for students with EBD. This article examines the potential role that caring teacher—student relationships have in achieving better outcomes for students with EBD within their current educational contexts. A rationale for why developing caring teacher—student relationships is important to improved outcomes for students with EBD is presented based on the current literature on caring teacher—student relationships. Potential barriers are delineated, followed by a summary of practices that serve as starting points for developing caring relationships bet...

This study was designed to obtain the first national picture of the characteristics of special educators who provide reading or English instruction in secondary day treatment and residential schools for youth with emotional or behavioral disorders (EBD) as well as their approach to reading instruction.Also, information was collected concerning the characteristics of the students in their classes.A national random sample of 123 (35%) reading or English teachers responded to a mail and online survey. No statistically significant differences existed between respondent and nonrespondent schools. Results indicated that teachers commonly hold master’s degrees and have an average of 9 years of teaching experience.Teachers reported using research-based instructional approaches but rarely integrate technology or peer tutoring into instruction. In many cases, teachers reported that students could not read well enough to gain basic information from text.Additional results and implications are ...
