“…Digital skill is a concept encompassing skill and specific techniques that are necessary for the use of effective digital technology [60]. In the last few years, several studies have used various terms to explain skills and the ability to use digital technology in learning activities-e.g., digital skills [61,62], technology skills [63,64], digital literacy [65,66], digital competence [67,68], digital tools [69], 21st century skills [70][71][72][73][74], ICT literacy [75][76][77], and ICT skills [78]. Regarding the latest competence areas relevant to digital literacy skills, UNESCO [79] suggested a concept frame of operation in seven major dimensions: devices and software operations, information and data literacy, communication and collaboration, digital content creation, safety, problem solving, and career-related competencies.…”

Rapid technological changes in industry and institutions of higher education required that their continuous learning and teaching methods conform to the needs of the labor market in the digital era. Building the engineering skill self-efficacy of students should be a key goal for educational institutions as they develop necessary skills for future engineers. This work investigated structural factors influencing engineering skill self-efficacy by conducting a questionnaire survey among 1,316 engineering students in Thailand. Structural equation modeling was used to validate the proposed model. The research results indicated that engineering skill selfefficacy was contributed to digital skills, learning strategies, and achievement goal orientation. Learning strategies were predicted by achievement goal orientation, and they positively associated with digital skills. These empirical findings reflect a sustainable educational development structure for engineering education. The results may benefit educators by specifying methods of educational development and learning activity design and promoting pedagogical system to develop learners' characteristics to enhance their engineering skill self-efficacy. Students can then be prepared with digital skills to apply to their further work, which will affect capacity building and the overall image of a country's development.INDEX TERMS Achievement goal orientation, learning strategies, digital skills, engineering skill self-efficacy.

Technological, social and environmental changes are occurring globally. Disruption of technology will impact all sectors of human life. Sociocultural changes occur in demographics, socio-economics of the world population. In the midst of this chaotic condition, the Indonesian nation as a country with a large population and natural resources must inevitably adapt to the global environment. One of the backbones of the nation's civilization to face global competition is good and mature planning in the education sector that adapts to global demands. This paper reviews the future of Indonesian education based on the results of the mapping between the Ki Hadjar Dewantara Education Model, the Indonesian Education Roadmap 2020-2015, the Disrupt Education Model in 2020, The WEF Education 4.0 Framework, and the Future of the Classroom Model. This paper results a future Indonesian Education Model framework to realize Indonesia's education Vision 2035.

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effect of L-tryptophan on the biophysical properties of bone tissue and oxygen consumption in rats with diet-induced obesity. The study was conducted on 40 male 3-months- aged Wistar rats. The photometric determination of phosphorus and calcium concentration in the femoral bones was conducted. The rate of oxygen consumption was measured according to chronoamperograms. The biophysical properties of femurs were measured by a methodic three-point bending test. It was shown that the content of calcium (by 15%) and phosphorus (by 20%) was significantly higher in the femurs of rats that received L-tryptophan (at a dose of 80 mg/kg per os) for 28 days compared to the control parameters. The rate of oxygen consumption, density and biophysical properties of the femurs did not change. As a result of the consumption for three months of a high-calorie diet (580 kcal/100 g) in experimental rats clear features of obesity evolved. Thus, they had a greater visceral fat mass (by 145%), a visceral fat mass to body weight ratio (by 122%), and an obesity index (by 145%). In rats with alimentary obesity, the calcium and phosphorus content in the femurs was significantly reduced by 28 and 24%, respectively, and the rate of oxygen consumption was 45% lower than in control animals. Femur bearing capacity, strength limit, and stiffness were significantly lower, namely on 23, 11, and 37%, respectively. Administration of L-tryptophan to rats, against the background of consumption of a high-calorie diet, inhibited the development of obesity. Visceral fat mass and its ratio to body weight in this group of rats were 38 and 23% lower, respectively, compared to the obese group. The concentration of calcium (by 32%) and phosphorus (by 25%) and oxygen consumption rates (by 31%) were significantly greater compared to rats fed only the high-calorie diet. Our research shows that the administration of L-tryptophan to obese animals can prevent the development of negative changes in bone tissue.
