Digitalization of education is now unavoidable. The use of digital media in learning is one way that can be done in the process of digitizing education. The aim of this research is to explore the application of technology-based learning in smart digital classes and regular MA Sunniyah Selo classes. This research uses a qualitative method with a case study approach. The case study in this research is used to compare technology-based learning in the two different classes. Observations, documentation and interviews were carried out to collect data before analysis was carried out by sorting, grouping, coding, looking for appropriate themes for later interpretation. The research results show that differences in digital media access in the learning process are not a differentiating factor in learning outcomes between smart digital classes and regular classes. Even some of the advantages of learning in smart digital classes are weaknesses in regular classes. Likewise, the advantages of the regular class are the weaknesses of the smart digital class. This shows that the effectiveness of technology-based learning in smart digital classes and regular classes influences the strategies, methods and approaches in the learning process. So that this can be used as a reference in developing technology-based learning in two different classes at once.

O Observatório do Valongo possui em seu acervo um telescópio de valor histórico, instalado em seu campus: um pequeno refrator com 11,5 cm de abertura, chamado de telescópio “Pazos”, que se acredita feito em 1880 e cuja construção é atribuída às “Oficinas” de José Hermida Pazos.  Ele seria o primeiro e único telescópio de montagem equatorial com mecanismo de acompanhamento feito no Brasil no século XIX. O artigo visa a contribuir para a preservação da memória institucional e apresenta os resultados da investigação feita para responder às questões sobre o telescópio: quem comprou, quando e por quê; e se as “Oficinas” de José Hermida Pazos foram realmente responsáveis pela sua construção.

Background: Plagiarism by researchers and college students in Vietnam has become a major concern for publishers. Many cases of master’s theses of graduate students in Vietnam being cancelled or their diplomas being revoked for plagiarism are recorded, and some scientists also have been warned or criticized for plagiarism or self-plagiarism.Objectives: The purpose of this study was to analyse the use in educational research of 13 popular text-matching software packages at universities in Vietnam.Methods: The study was based on semistructured interviews of 104 researchers from 18 universities in Vietnam with reference to the use of text-matching software by the researchers.Results: The three most commonly used text-matching software packages were Turnitin, DoIT, and iThenticate. Three-fourths of the 18 universities employ text-matching software and although 17 out of 104 researchers were unfamiliar with such software. Universities in Vietnam primarily require plagiarism checks for master’s theses (79 out of 104 responses) and doctoral dissertations (72 out of 104 responses). Out of 104 participants, 32 use them for graduate theses or project reports, and 45 use them for research papers and project reports.Conclusions: Many universities in Vietnam are yet to specify the requirements for use of text-matching software, and most researchers and students use it only when prompted by publishers or institutions. Researchers in educational science typically lack the financial resources and the requisite skills for using text-matching software.

The Covid-19 pandemic is a milestone for the Gerakan Nasional Non-Tunai (GNNT) in Indonesia. This GNNT socialization activity to Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) aimed to support the Indonesia Payment System Blueprint (BSPI) 2025. MSMEs are the largest business (98.67%) which contributes 60.34% to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in Indonesia. The socialization, MSME actors can make transactions with the electronic leisure payment system. Electronic payments as a result of buying and selling transactions electronically through the internet (e-commerce). The method of implementing this activity is to conduct socialization and Forum Group Discussions (FGD) face-to-face under health protocol standards during the Covid-19 pandemic. In addition to socialization, e.g. of the application of using electronic money through smartphones was also given. The enthusiasm of the participants was shown during the discussion session. They feel that they understand more about the benefits of the electronic payment system in the GNNT policy and will apply it to their productive economic business activities. After receiving the socialization, we have recorded that three of the eight micro-business actors participating in the socialization applied the non-cash transactions. Warung Kamu had applied the payment using the Quick Response Code Indonesia Standard (QRIS). The Olahan Bandeng and Ida Collection market their products through the Kopimi E-Gerai.

I am excited to announce that with this volume European Science Editing (ESE) has shifted from the print to a fully digital open access version. The journal underwent several changes last year. First of all, our publisher, the European Association of Science Editors (EASE) was generously offered – and accepted – a new ARPHA submission system (powered by PenSoft). Together with the EASE president Pippa Smart and EASE Council, we decided to transform ESE into a fully open access online journal. After several months of planning and re-thinking our strategy, a small working group (some members of the EASE Council and of ESE’s associate editors) prepared a proposal, the main idea of which was to divide the journal in two overlapping publications: European Science Editing and EASE Digest. The former will continue to publish original articles, reviews (formerly “essays”), viewpoints, and correspondence using the fully open access ARPHA submission system (flow publishing) but will drop the other sections, namely News notes, The editor’s bookshelf, This site I like, and EASE Forum Digest). These sections, which our readers consider particularly valuable, will now be published in EASE Digest with a few selected articles from ESE. The Digest will be available to EASE members only. As the proposal was accepted by the EASE Council in September 2019, the journal’s transformation is already under way. I wish to thank Silvia Maina (This site I like), Fiona Murphy (Book reviews), Elise Langdon-Neuner (EASE-Forum Digest), Anna Maria Rossi (The Editor’s bookshelf), and James Hartley and Denys Wheatley (members of the International Advisory Board) for the great work they have done and for their cooperation.

Abstract Educational democracy is a very important process because it will provide equal educational opportunities to all, regardless of race (ethnicity), creed, skin color and social status. The principles of democracy can be implemented in the Islamic education system because basically Islam gives freedom to individuals (students) to develop natural values that exist within themselves in line with the times. In this study, it discusses the relevance of Democratic Islamic Education in Surah Ali Imron 159. In this surah there are implicit democratic concepts such as gentleness and deliberation or communication within organizations. In the verse, it explains the steps of deliberation. Namely, being gentle, forgiving other deliberation participants, asking for their forgiveness and putting trust in after the deliberation. In this article, we will present a view of the democratic concept in Islamic education. Keywords: Education, Democratic, Islamic Education Abstrak Demokrasi pendidikan merupakan proses yang sangat penting karena akan memberikan kesempatan pendidikan yang setara kepada semua, tanpa memandang ras (suku), keyakinan, warna kulit dan status sosial. Prinsip demokrasi dapat diterapkan dalam sistem pendidikan Islam karena pada dasarnya Islam memberikan kebebasan kepada individu (peserta didik) untuk mengembangkan nilai-nilai kodrati yang ada dalam dirinya sejalan dengan perkembangan zaman. Dalam kajian ini membahas tentang relevansi Pendidikan Islam Demokratis dalam Surah Ali Imron 159. Dalam surah ini terdapat konsep demokrasi yang tersirat seperti kelembutan dan musyawarah atau komunikasi dalam organisasi. Dalam ayat tersebut dijelaskan langkah- langkah musyawarah. Yakni, bersikap lembut, memaafkan peserta musyawarah lainnya, meminta maaf dan menaruh kepercayaan setelah musyawarah. Pada artikel kali ini, kami akan menyajikan pandangan tentang konsep demokrasi dalam pendidikan Islam. Kata Kunci: Pendidikan, Demokrasi, Pendidikan Islam

The paper is written in connection with the 2018 300th anniversary of the birth of the professor and bishop, Johan Ernst Gunnerus (1718–1773), who founded modern science in Norway and who, in 1760, also founded the first learned society in the country: The Royal Norwegian Society of Sciences and Letters in Trondheim. In 1758 Professor Gunnerus was appoined the bishop for the whole of northern Norway, as the bishop of Trondheim. In 1771 Bishop Gunnerus was called to the capital of the then Danish-Norwegian kingdom, Copenhagen, with the mission of reforming the Copenhagen university, at that time the only university in the entire dual kingdom. In his recommendation for reforms of the university, he also included a proposal for the establishment of a university in Norway. In this proposal, he argued for the city of Kristiansand as the most suitable location for that university. If the King would follow his recommendation, he would himself move to Kristiansand and also bring with him the Royal Society from Trondheim. Many people have subsequently wondered why he chose to point to Kristiansand for the establishment of the first Norwegian university, and not Oslo (where the university was finally opened in 1813) or Trondheim (where he had founded the Royal Society 11 years earlier). It has been thought that Gunnerus suggested Kristiansand mainly because the fact that the city was close to Denmark and a university there could perhaps have also recruited students from northern Jutland. Some have even suggested that Gunnerus proposed Kristiansand because he knew it would not be acceptable to Copenhagen or to the King, and then Trondheim (his “real” wish) could then emerge as a more plausible candidate, even if it was situated rather far north. In this paper, I argue that until now everybody who has discussed Gunnerus' choice of location for a Norwegian university has missed one decisive point: before Gunnerus moved from Copenhagen (where he was professor) to Trondheim (as bishop), Kristiansand was known in Norway, Denmark and the rest of Europe as the Norwegian centre for science and research. This was due to just one man, Bishop Jens Christian Spidberg (1684–1762). I show how Spidberg established himself through international publications as the leading scientist in Norway, and how everybody with a scientific question during the first half of the 18th century looked to Kristiansand and Spidberg for the answer. This, I argue, gaveKristiansand an academic and scientific reputation that Gunnerus was very well aware of and could exploit in his recommendation of Kristiansand as the location for the first Norwegian university. However, this knowledge about this reputation of Kristiansand’s in the first half of the 18th century has since been lost completely, mostly because Gunnerus’ fundamental seminal contribution in the second half of the 18th century has completely overshadowed the academic situation in Norway before his time. Finally in 2007 a university, the University of Agder, was established in Kristiansand, on the basis of a university college with academic roots going back to 1828. An academy of science, the Agder Academy of Sciences and Letters, was founded in 2002. A formal agreement of cooperation between the Royal Society and the then university college was signed 2001, and the academy joined the agreement in 2005. This agreement confirmed the long academic ties between Kristiansand and Trondheim, going all the way back to the scientific positions first held by Spidberg in Kristiansand and then by Gunnerus in Trondheim.

In this Presidential Address, I reflect on my leadership journey both within the Society of Counseling Psychology and within the academy. Consistent with the theme of my presidency, Leadership Through Advocacy: Influencing and Advancing Change, I speak to the four initiatives that I developed during my presidential year (2017–2018), namely (a) leadership development in midcareer and early career professionals, (b) continued engagement in respectful dialogues, (c) master’s-level training, and (d) the Society’s strategic plan. Embedded within my leadership style, I speak to nine lessons that I learned as I navigated different leadership roles: leadership is a way of being; leadership is an evolving and developmental process; leadership is relational; leadership is about humility; leadership is about listening; leadership is about communication and amplification; leadership is about respectful and courageous engagement; leadership is about social and political responsibility; and leadership is about transparency and linking the past, present, and future.

October 2018 IEEE SyStEmS, man, & CybErnEtICS magazInE 3 Celebrating Excellence T he IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society (SMCS) community felt great pride when it learned that Dr. Dimitar Filev was elected as fellow of the National Academy of Engineering (NAE) for contributions to automotive re search and practice in the fields of intelligent information and control systems. This distinction is one of the highest professiona l honors accorded an engineer. Members have distinguished themselves in business and academic management, in technical positions, as uni versity faculty, and as leaders in government and private engineering organizations. Members are elected to NAE membership by their peers (current NAE members). Along the same lines, we also learned that the 2017 IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Leaning Systems Outstanding Paper Award was granted to Chen et al. [1] at the Awards Banquet of the IEEE 2018 World Congress on Computational Intelligence. Congratulations to C.L. Philip Chen and Fei-Yue Wang! Additionally, SMC Awards Committee Chair Prof. Ljiljana Trajkovic issued an open call seeking nominations for the SMCS awards: http://www . ieeesmc.org/about-smcs/awards. SMCS awards are broad ranging, including the prestigious Norbert Wiener and the Lotfi A. Zadeh Pioneer awards. There are no eligibility restrictions for either award. Serving on awards and recognitions committees not only raises one’s appreciation of excellence in our midst but also alerts a person to the importance of raising awareness of the best contributors and their work in areas of interest to their technical community. Over the past four years, IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Magazine has offered articles profiling highly visible members of our SMC community and their technical work. The July 2018 issue contained a six-page feature article celebrating the technical contributions of Dr. Peng-Shi, the well-regarded professor at the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering of the University of Adelaide, Australia. The article was coordinated by Prof. Choon Ki Ahn, who is a well-known engineering educator and Crimson Professor of Excellence, School of Electrical Engineering, Korea University, Seoul. At the time I wrote this editorial, Prof. Ahn was guest editing a special section of IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Magazine focusing on Markovian jump systems for the January 2019 issue. The magazine is preparing several special sections celebrating the achievements of some of our colleagues in areas of interest to SMC. Each section consists of two parts, with the first containing an extended biography of the subject of the section and testimonials by past and present students, collaborators, adherents, and colleagues who witnessed new contributions evolve. The second part includes up to three technical articles of a tutorial and or review nature on areas of expertise of the celebrant. This is designed to raise our awareness of developments at the forefront of our field. Administrative/leadership achievements appear to be less tractable than those of the technical variety. Naturally, testimonials by Society leadership speaking to the impact of the celebrant’s efforts will be an integral part of the section. Examples include new educational programs, spearheading a new publication/society, and the rejuvenation of an important area of study. A special section will include not only a historical narrative of the evolution of the celebrated achievement but also testimonials by those who were impacted by the innovation. I am looking forward to your suggestions of colleagues whom you believe have made lasting contributions to our profession. Let me hear from you on these issues and how this magazine can serve you better.
