474 Urgency of Parent's Involvement in Building
Proceeding of International Conference On Child-Friendly Education, Muhammadiyah Surakarta University, April 21st-22nd, 2018 URGENCY OF PARENT’S INVOLVEMENT IN BUILDING PRESCHOOLERS’S PEACE OF MIND 1Wahyu Nanda Eka Saputra, 2Prima Suci Rohmadheny 1Universitas Ahmad Dahlan, Yogyakarta, Indonesia [email protected] 2 Universitas Ahmad Dahlan, Yogyakarta, Indonesia [email protected] Abstract Preschoolers (5-6 years old) are children who are still in the early age range. Bullying and violence (child abuse) events become an important issue that needs to be of great interest after much news about both. Being the subject of bullying and child abuse, of course the child will bring up a variety of responses one of them aggression behavior. A difficult thing for an individual including a parent to be able to control everything that comes from outside the child, but building a fortress of strength from within the child is the most likely thing to do. One effort that requires a strong role of the family in dealing with these issues is to build a peace of mind on the child. The mind of peace has three patterns, among which are: developing the idealist mind- humble, self-controlling, and disagree-tolerance. Parents can learn, practice, and help children to build a peace of mind with these three patterns in order for the child to remain resilient to the unpleasant treatment they receive. Key words: peace of mind, parent‟s involvement INTRODUCTION Childhood Education Institution (PAUD) shall At the age of 5-6 years old, Children are in work together with three important elements the stage where they possess rapid development. -

An Abstract of Peace Education Reconstructed: How Peace Education Can Work in Kuwait by Sara Alnufaishan Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy Degree in Foundations of Education The University of Toledo May 2018 Peace education is an emerging and growing field of study that holds promise for the future survival of our species. This reconstructive project involves a process of comparative philosophical analyses between approaches to peace education, as well as between the approaches and the social context of Kuwait. It concerns the research question: what philosophical conception and approach to peace education is potentially most compatible with Kuwaiti culture? In this dissertation, I place particular focus on the following approaches to peace education: integrative, critical, Islamic, gender, and comprehensive. Using a relational hermeneutics method, I analyze the relative compatibility of these approaches to Kuwaiti culture. Based on a fusion of peace education horizons and Kuwait’s cultural horizon, the following compatible elements emerge: reflection, dialogue, creative learning, and action. -

DEAN’S LETTER “The Meaning of Knowing” As a professor who teaches philosophy and literature, I sometimes contemplate the meaning of knowing. When I say “I Know”, what does it really mean? What do I know about the things that I think I know? This may sound quite silly, however, it is no simple matter. Chuang Tzu, the ancient Chinese classic, discloses the fallacy of sensory conviction that we associate with certainty. What we believe to be the most real and obvious is little more than subjective bias. Let’s read the following example from “Discussion on Making All Things Equal”. Men claim that Mao-ch’iang and Lady Li were beautiful, but if fish saw them they would dive to the bottom of the stream......If so, which knows how to fix the standard of beauty for the world? (Translated by Burton Watson) According to the logic proposed in this argument, our concept of beauty is not based on the object of our aesthetic appreciation but it exists in our subjective cognitive faculty. In other words, the beauty of an object has in fact nothing to do with the form or appearance of the object, and therefore we can never secure precise clue to objectively characterizing our judgment of beauty. In this sense, the basis of our sensory conviction which we assume is the most real and empirical becomes dismantled. Considering the underlying implication of the above quote, it seems that Chuang Tzu might have suggested the limitation of our knowledge. Put simply, we do not know the extent of what we know. -
War, Peace, and Peace Education: Experiences and Perspectives of Pre-Service Teachers
International Journal of Progressive Education, Volume 14 Number 1, 2018 © 2018 INASED War, Peace, And Peace Education: Experiences and Perspectives of Pre-Service Teachers Omur Gurdogan-Bayir i Anadolu Unıversity Mahmut Bozkurt ii Anadolu Unıversity Abstract The purpose of this study was to reveal the perceptions of preservice teachers with war experience regarding war, peace and peace education. In the study, the phenomenological design was applied. The participants of the study were individuals who experienced wars or conflicts for several reasons in their countries and who received teacher training in Turkey. In this respect, the causes of war were reported to include economic and political benefits and religious and ethnical discrimination. In addition, the participants mentioned the social, psychological and economic reflections of war. Also, peace was associated with the participants’ experiences and explained with such concepts as living together, freedom, confidence and happiness. In relation to peace education, the main focus was on respect to differences, and on prevention of discrimination. The preservice teachers also emphasized giving importance to children’s psychology in peace education, women’s rights as well as to avoidance of discrimination.

Lee et al. BMC Public Health (2021) 21:766 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-021-10770-4 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access The association of education in a new society and social support from the education with the health of North Korean defectors: a cross-sectional study Jihyun Lee1,2, Yui Park1, Dong-Hun Han2,3* , Ji Won Yoo4, Wenlian Zhou5, Pearl Kim6 and Jay J. Shen6* Abstract Background: The number of North Korean defectors (NKDs) escaping to South Korea has increased. The health status of NKDs is an essential factor for a successful settlement into South Korean society. However, no studies have been conducted on the health status of NKDs in terms of education and social support. The aim of this study was to determine the associations of education and social support with the self-rated health status among NKDs. Methods: This study utilized data gained from face-to-face interviews with 126 NKDs. A multivariable logistic regression and path analysis were performed to assess the effects of education in South Korea and social support on their self-rated health status and to explore the complex relationships between direct and indirect effects of the variables. Results: NKDs who did not experience regular education in South Korea responded that they were in poor health compared to their counterpart (OR = 5.78). Although a direct association between education in South Korea and self-rated health was not shown, there was an indirect path from education in South Korea to self-rated health through social support. Conclusions: Participation in regular education in South Korea is important for the health status of NKDs. -

The Development of Preferences for Institutions: Evidence from North
The Development of Preferences for Institutions: Evidence from North Korean Refugees Syngjoo Choi Byung-Yeon Kim Seo-young Silvia Kim Jungmin Lee Sokbae Leey August 2015 Abstract We explore the development of support for market economy and democracy among North Korean refugees settled in South Korea since their experiences of socialism in North Korea and capitalism in South Korea make them an ideal sample. We …nd that these refugees exhibit weaker support for both institutions than native-born South Koreans. Nevertheless, exposure to market activities in North Korea is positively associated with preferences for market economy as well as for democracy. Communist Party membership in North Korea and education in South Korea are respectively linked to stronger support for market economy and democracy. Lastly, those who were young at the time of arrival at South Korea assimilate quickly to democracy. JEL Classi…cation: D02, P10, P20.
