The study aims to verify the validity and reliability of the entrepreneurial mindset scale in the Indonesian context (i.e., the adapted EM scale). The respondents were 302 undergraduate students who have already enrolled in the entrepreneurship course. In order to achieve the aim of study, a scale development procedure was conducted, including item generation, exploratory factor analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis. Item generation was successful in generating the preliminary items of the entrepreneurial mindset scale, whereas exploratory factor analysis was also successful in purifying those preliminary items. Furthermore, confirmatory factor analysis was successful in verifying the convergent validity and the composite reliability of the adapted EM scale. The adapted EM scale was a parsimonious measurement model, and therefore it could be useful for measuring the entrepreneurial mindset of undergraduate students in Indonesia. Future studies are recommended to refine the adapted EM scale: (1) by verifying it among students from other universities, (2) by using two different samples, in which one sample is for exploratory factor analysis and the other one is for confirmatory factor analysis, and (3) by testing the measurement invariance across groups (e.g., gender, age, and origin of university).

Among the main causes of low learning achievement in mathematics learning is a delayed behavior to do tasks, commonly called academic procrastination. The objectives of this research are to describe and to explain the causal factors and consequences of academic procrastination in learning mathematics for junior high school students. This research was conducted for more than five months. The research took place at six junior high schools in Madiun Regency. The research approach was a qualitative descriptive. The types of data sources were six mathematics teachers and six students, in-class mathematics learning activities, and documents. The data collection techniques were (1) questionnaire, (2) documentation, (3) passive role observation, and (3) in-depth interviews. The data were analyzed using an interactive model, which was implemented in two stages. They are at the time or during the course of data collection and after the data collection. The results of data analysis show that academic procrastination is caused by several factors. They are assumption that the tasks assigned are not important, too burdensome, and difficult to work, insufficient knowledge, too perfectionist, bad management of learning, lack of self-regulation, stress and fatigue, lack of social support, indiscipline teachers, and inconducive school culture. Academic procrastination, most importantly, leads to low learning achievement.
This study aims not only to verify ‘the experiential learning–entrepreneurial mindset relationship’, but also to test which entrepreneurial characteristics (i.e., innovativeness, risk-taking propensity, need for achievement, and proactiveness) moderate ‘the experiential learning–entrepreneurial mindset relationship’. The data were collected from 313 undergraduate students who have already taken the entrepreneurship course and analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis and hierarchical regression analysis. The results showed the positive relationships between experiential learning and elaboration mindset, and between experiential learning and implementing mindset. However, need for achievement and proactiveness were found to moderate ‘the experiential learning–entrepreneurial mindset relationship’, whereas innovativeness and risk-taking propensity did not moderate that relationship. This study provides theoretical implications in extending the literature of experiential learning theory, Dweck’s implicit theory of intelligence, and entrepreneurial characteristics. This study also has practical implications for entrepreneurship educators. Received: 16 September 2022 / Accepted: 25 December 2022 / Published: 5 January 2023

This is descriptive qualitative research type of case study. The results showed that, SDN Dinoyo 2 in implementing Adiwiyata Program refers to four Adiwiyata standards. First, environmentaly sound policies are implemented by making a vision, mission and RKAS on environmental education. The second, implementation of the environment-based curriclum is implemented by making silabs, RPP, and teaching materials. The third participatory-based environmental activities are implemented throgh collaboration with various parties, extracurricular activities and creative and innovation activities. The fourth management of environmentally friendly supporting facillities and infrasstructure is implemented by providing supporting facillities and infrastrctre such as green school, composter, and cleaning eqipment. The formation of environmental care characters is done through spontaneous actions, examplary, school cultre, punishment and respect. Environmental care characters that appear as the impact of adiwiyata program implementation such as student responsibility are able to take responsibility for given tasks, student discipline always comes on time, student cooperation is able to work in teams, and creative students are able to process waste into valuable items.</p><p><strong>Abstrak:</strong> Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan tentang pelaksanaan program Adiwiyata dalam mendukung pembentukan karakter peduli lingkungan di SDN Dinoyo 2. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif deskriptif jenis studi kasus. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa SDN Dinoyo 2 dalam melaksanakan program adiwiyata mengacu pada empat standar Adiwiyata. <em>Pertama</em>, kebijakan sekolah berwawasan lingkungan diimplementasikan dengan membuat visi, misi dan RKAS tentang pendidikan lingkunagn hidup. <em>Kedua</em>, pelaksanaan kurikulum berbasis lingkungan di implementasikan dengan membuat Silbus, RPP, dan bahan ajar. <em>Ketiga</em>, kegiatan lingkungan berbasis partisipatif diimplemtasikan melalui kerja sama dengan berbagai pihak, kegiatan ekstrakurikuler, dan kegiatan kreasi dan inovasi. <em>Keempat</em>, pengelolaan sarana dan prasarana pendukung ramah lingkungan diimplemtasikan dengan menyediakan sarana dan prasarana pendukung, seperti <em>green school</em>, komposter, perlengkapan kebersihan. Pembentukan karakter peduli lingkungan dilakukan melalui tindakan sepontan, keteladanan, budaya sekolah, hukuman dan penghargaan. Karakter peduli lingkungan yang tampak sebagai dampak pelaksanaan program adiwiyata seperti tanggung jawab siswa mampu bertanggung jawab terhadap tugas-tgas yang diberikan, disiplin siswa selalu datang tepat waktu, kerjasama siswa mampu bekerjasama dalam tim, dan kreatif siswa mampu mengolah sampah menjadi barang berharga.</p></td></tr></tbody></table></div>
