| Abstraksi Narasi | : | This research aimed to analyze the levels of teachers satisfaction towards their professions from the viewpoints of the financial and non-financial aspects (social, psychological, job and career aspects). The diferences in the satisaction levels were examined in detail from the viewpoints of the gender, age, employment status, education level, and length of teaching. The research was descriptive and used the purposive sampling teachnique. The samples were teachers of the elementary school (SD), senior high school (SMP), senior high school (SMA)/senior vocational school (SMK) in the city of Yogyakarta. To find out the levels of the teachers satisfaction towards their professions, the researchers em[ployed the criterion-referenced evaluation, type II. In order to test the diferences, the researchers used the Chi-Square Test with the significance level of five percent. The research results showed that the satisfaction of the financial aspect was extremely unsatisfactory, of the job and career aspect relatively satisfactory, of the psychological aspect satisfactory, and of the social aspect also satisfactory. Accordingly, it was concluded that the levels of teachers satisfaction regarding the financial and non-financial aspects were relatively satisfactory. The levels of teachers satisaction towards their profession were examined based on (1) the gender, with no difference in the financial, job and career, psychological, social aspects if seen as a whole (financial and non-financial aspects), (2) the age, with no difference in the financial, job and career, psychological, social or other aspects if seen as a whole, (3) the employment status, with differences in the financial and social aspects, but without differences in the job and careers, psychological aspects if seen as a whole (4) the education levels, with no diferences in the financial aspect but with differences in the job and career, psychological, social aspects if seen as a whole, (5) the length of teaching, with no difference in the financial, job and career, psychological, social aspects if seen as a whole. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | Numerous concerned parties expect that Catholicism education at school should also explore and develop affection and religious behavior, and not only stop at the knowledge level. Nevertheles, it appears that Catholicism education always comes to an end at the level of knowledge. This situation has occured because Catholicism education at school takes place in a formal education setting. Like other subjects at school, Catholicism education is bound to the curriculum, timetables, and examinations, for example. In order to attain the goal of developing the aspects of afection and religious behaviour, teachers need to find strategies of dealing with the formal setting of Catholicism education. Numerous experts have said that value education in general and Catholicism education in particular have always taken place informally, that is in the interaction amongst all school community members. Therefore, the community based approach which develops school cultures in accord with the values of Catholicism education at school can become a supporting alternative to achieve the goals of Catholicism education at school in the aspects of affection and religious behaviours, namely the internalization of Catholicism values. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | This research aimed to design and implement (experiment) a model for learning quadratic equations for the tenth grade of Senior High School (SMA) by applying the graded mathematization approach. This was an action research whose subjects were tenth grade students of Sang Timur Senior High School, Yogyakarta. The research results implied that the first Learning Scenario Designs (Rancangan Skenario Pembelajaran-RSP) needed to be evaluated and improved, particularly regarding learning management in class before the designs were finalized. The teacher should give shorter instructions, have better self-control and be more patient in managing a cooperative class, offer students assistance timely in line with the phases of student activities, and realize that the time allocation in the Learning Scenario Designs had been strictly arranged. The students seemed to be prepared to modify their learning activities, to be able to come up with several problem solving strategies, and to be confident to demonstrate and discuss their work results. The speed and readiness of the students in each phase of activity was different. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | Puppetry is a work of arts of the Indonesian nation, in particular as avaluable Javanese culture. UNESCO has referred to it as ``masterpiece of the oral and intangible heritage of humaniora``. A puppet show and its story can at same time deliver the aspect of ``order``, guidance, and performance`` or ``esthetics, and entertainment``. A puppet show was also a value education tool or a suitable character education for Javanese communities in the past. Numerous foreigners have been made impressed by the value significance of the puppetry culture, but our own nation, particularly young generations, and even young javanese generations who are heirs of the culture, have themselves become ignorant of puppetry. These young people are more interested in foreign cultures, or rather modern, international cultures. As a result, if no attempts are made to re-introduce and preserve puppetry, the puppetry culture will disappear from the lives of our nation. Therefore, in the future formal education institutions may function as one of the channels to re-introduce puppetry to young generations considering that formal education plays an extremely strategic role and that other channels have become more difficult and more costly to be afforded. What formal education should do is to present puppetry in various forms integrated in the curricular and extra-curricular activities, by implementing the following seven steps, namely (1) Watching (for example: students are asked to watch a real puppet show or an inexpensive puppetry creation on an OHP, to look at puppetry ornaments or pictures); (2) Listening (for example: students are asked to listening to puppet story through oral telling or radio); (3) Reading (for example: students are asked to read story books or magazines about puppetry); (4) Discussion (or example: students are asked to discuss puppetry); (5)Writing (for example: students are asked to express their ideas about puppetry); (6) Creation (for instance: students are asked to make or create a puppet character or picture); (7) Performance (for instance: students are asked to demonstrate their abilities in performing a puppet show). By so doing, it is expected that students at school can recognize puppetry more closely and then love it. As the saying goes ``no familiarity, no fondness``. By being familiar with puppetry, students will then love it. Concretely, the materials about puppetry can be integrated in the subjects of the Javanese language, the Indonesian language, social sciences or civil education, and extra-curricular activities. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | Recently, there have arisen numerous opinions, including criticism of the teaching professions, which were directed at both the teachers themselves and other related aspects, such as how teacher education institutions (LPTK) trainj teacher candidates. Many say that teachers tend to have low quality and teach in an uncreative way. Nevertheless, one of the oignored aspects was to find out the real situation of the teachers in question when they carried out their professional tasks. What has been widely discussed was only the issue of the low teachers salaries. Based on research, this article argues that apart from the salary issue, mathematics teachers face a lot of problems carrying out their professional tasks which then hinder them to perform in a satisfactory way. The teachers problems include the dificulty understanding and implementing the new curriculum (competency-based curriculum), planning and implementing learning activities in line with modern learning principles (such as constructivism) and managing teacher`s workload which is on the whole relatively a lot and various. The Mathematics Education Study Programme at the teacher education institution can play a role to assist teachers to face and overcome the above problems. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | This research aimed to find out whether the cooperative learning method involving pair work with different capabilities was more effective than that of similar capabilities in solving simple problems namely tangram puzzles. This research was conducted based on the findings that early childhood education in Indonesia has yet to pay more attention to problem solving skills. Early childhood education has focused more on the teaching of reading, writing and computation. The research employed pretest-postest controlled roup designs. The data were collected by gauging the children`s accuracy and speed in solving tangram puzzles. The statistical computation showed that the capability variations of the pre-school children in the cooperative learning group had no impact on the levels of achievements. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | Teori konstruktivisme sosial memandang bahwa di samping individu, kelompok dimana individu berada sangat menentukan proses pembentukan pengetahuan pada diri seseorang. Pengetahuan yang dibangun seseorang tidak hanya dihasilkan melalui pengamatan dan olah pikirnya sendiri tetapi juga melalui komunikasi dengan komunitasnya. Didalam tulisan ini, teori konstruktivisme sosial dipergunakan tidak pertama-tama untuk menganalisis proses belajar murid, melainkan proses yang dialami para calon guru membangun pengetahuannya tentang mengajar melalui keikutsertaannya sebagai peserta didik pada berbagai jenjang pendidikan. Melalui aktivitas pengajaran pada berbagai jenjang pendidikan, pola pengajaran di dalam suatu masyarakat direproduksi oleh para guru. Sebagai akibatnya, pola-pola pengajaran di dalam kelas-kelas sekolah di Indonesia, sekalipun berbagai upaya pembaharuan telah dilakukan, hampir tidak mengalami perubahan yang berarti sejak awal diperkenalkannya sistem sekolah modern. Dalam kerangka berpikir demikian, proses pengajaran di FKIP diharapkan dapat membantu para calon guru merekonstruksi pengetahuannya tentang mengajar sehingga terbangun suatu sistem pengetahuan tentang mengajar dan belajar yang lebih baik. |
