Social Support for Post-Divorce Role Readjustment
Divorce causes changes in social roles and relationships both in the family and in the society. Readjustment requires greater attention and effort, especially by women, regarding the socio-economic impacts it causes. This research aims at explaing the forms of family social supports and social networks for post-divorce role readjustment. A qualitative approach was used by conducting in-depth interviews with eight deliberately selected participants who had experienced the divorce in the last one to three years and they had children. Social support from family and social networks have a significant positive impact on the post- divorce readjustment process. Key findings highlight that emotional, practical, and informational support and positive feedback play an important role in helping the individuals navigate their complex life changes after the divorce. Parents are the first parties to provide emotional support in the form of empathy, motivation, advice, and a place to share feelings as a form of self-acceptance for the children. Parents are also the source of material support to help finance living needs and child care. Support from social networks includes providing information about available resources or services and advice to overcome the post-divorce difficulties, but there is a relative lack of perceived support and positive responses. This research provides important insights with how social support can facilitate the post-divorce readjustment process and emphasizes the need to integrate the strategies for strengthening the social support into individual readjustment interventions

Students’ Collaborative Performance through STEM Topic “Led Card – Light It Up” For 8th Grade
STEM education has become a crucial strategy for improving students’ collaborative competence by engaging them in hands-on, problem-based learning. Integrating STEM topics into natural science curricula remains limited in many countries, including Vietnam. To address this gap, this study aimed to design and implement a STEM lesson titled “LED Card – LIGHT IT UP” for 8th-grade students to develop collaborative competence and deepen their understanding of power sources and simple circuits. The study employed a quasi-experimental design with 21 students participating in three sessions, each lasting 45 minutes. Students worked in small groups and engaged in collaborative activities using techniques such as Numbered Heads Together, Brainstorming, Placemat, Gallery Walk, and XYZ. All group interactions during these activities were observed and video-recorded. The collected data were then qualitatively analyzed based on predefined collaboration criteria, including role assignment, idea exchange, feedback provision, and joint problem-solving, to assess each group’s level of collaboration. The results revealed that four out of five groups consistently demonstrated effective collaboration, particularly during reporting and design review sessions, despite facing challenges in online coordination. In conclusion, the integrated STEM lesson effectively enhanced students’ collaborative competence while deepening their understanding of fundamental electrical concepts. The results also highlighted some limitations, such as student distractions and unequal contributions among members, indicating the need for improvements in techniques and teacher guidance methods to enhance the effectiveness of group activities in STEM topics. The novelty of this study lies in its innovative synthesis of established collaborative teaching techniques within a STEM framework, providing a promising approach for enhancing secondary education
Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) Competency in Physics Learning Assessment: Pre-service Teachers\u27 Thinking Skills Based on Ethno-Socio-Scientific Content
This research examines the ESD competency levels—specifically systems thinking, anticipatory thinking, and critical thinking—among pre-service physics teachers within ethno-socio-scientific content, aiming to equip future educators with the skills, knowledge, and attitudes needed to promote sustainability and address global environmental and social challenges. A quantitative approach was employed, with a sample of 83 pre-service physics teacher students from a Physics Education program at a university in Aceh, Indonesia. This research instrument consists of eight multiple-choice questions for each competency. Validity and reliability analyses, using the Rasch model, confirmed the instrument\u27s robustness, yielding high-reliability scores (person reliability = 0.82, item reliability = 0.84, Cronbach\u27s alpha = 0.85). The results reveal variations in competency levels: anticipatory thinking is the strongest, critical thinking is the least developed, and systems thinking is moderate. Correlation analysis indicates positive and moderate relationships among the competencies, highlighting the importance of integrated ESD competency development. The success of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) requires a holistic approach that fosters the development of all relevant competencies. Prioritizing critical thinking is essential, as it is a foundation for enhancing other competencies. Educational systems should focus on cultivating systems thinking and anticipatory thinking, as these are interconnected and mutually reinforcing in the transformation toward sustainability. Additionally, the findings suggest that the comprehensive integration of ESD into the physics education curriculum can enhance pre-service teachers\u27 capacity to engage effectively with sustainability issues. By incorporating ethno-socio-scientific contexts, this approach deepens the ethnic, social, and contextual relevance of physics concepts, thus preparing future educators to address sustainability challenges
Identifying Trends in the Study of Gender in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Programs
In recent years, Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education has gained increasing importance in response to changes driven by evolving social dynamics, emphasizing the need for professionals equipped with skills and knowledge to navigate the demands of modern society. However, the gender gap in STEM fields remains a widespread concern, primarily due to the underrepresentation of women. To address this, different strategies have been developed to encourage greater female participation in these areas. These strategies include promoting a greater representation of female mentors, implementing measures to eliminate discrimination, fostering a balance between personal life and work, and ensuring equitable conditions in promotions and salary allocation. Against this backdrop, the present study aims to identify research trends in STEM from a gender perspective by conducting a bibliometric analysis using the PRISMA 2020 methodology. The results reveal an exponential increase in scientific output on this topic, with a peak in publications occurring in 2022. Among the key themes emerging from the literature are persistent gender disparities, the relevance of self-efficacy, and the role of intersectionality in shaping women’s participation in STEM. Understanding why more women—and especially women of color—do not pursue or work in STEM disciplines is a concern from the standpoint of global diversity, particularly in the United States, where significant inclusion gaps remain. Furthermore, despite improvements in female representation, barriers related to retention and professional advancement persist. Overall, this analysis provides new insights into the thematic evolution and emerging directions of research at the intersection of gender and STEM
