Public Lecture: Writing for Academic Publication
Writing for academic publication is a rigorous process through which scholars communicate their research findings to a broader academic community. This formal and structured form of communication serves several key purposes. Firstly, it contributes to the dissemination of new knowledge and ideas, advancing the frontiers of human understanding. Secondly, it enables researchers to receive feedback and validation from peers, fostering academic discourse and quality control. Additionally, academic publications establish the author's credibility, enhancing their reputation within their field.
To be successful in academic publishing, authors must adhere to the conventions of their specific discipline and maintain high standards of rigor, clarity, and originality. The process typically involves conducting thorough literature reviews, designing and executing empirical studies, and presenting the results in a format that adheres to the guidelines of the chosen journal or publisher. In today's digital age, the scope of academic publishing has expanded to include open-access journals, preprint servers, and online platforms, offering diverse avenues for dissemination.
Overall, academic publication is the lifeblood of the scholarly world, driving progress, collaboration, and innovation across various fields of study. Researchers aspiring to publish should be prepared for meticulous preparation, peer review, and revisions, as they seek to contribute meaningfully to the global body of knowledge.

Public Lecture: Systematic Literature Review
Dr Visal Moosa will give lecture a critical point in any research, systematic literature review. This review is a rigorous and structured research method used to comprehensively identify, evaluate, and synthesize existing scholarly literature on a specific research question or topic. It follows a predefined and systematic process to minimize bias and ensure transparency in the selection and analysis of relevant studies. Researchers begin by formulating clear inclusion and exclusion criteria, searching multiple databases and sources to retrieve relevant articles, and then critically appraising the quality of each study. The key objective is to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state of knowledge in the chosen field, identifying trends, gaps, and patterns in the existing literature. This approach aids in evidence-based decision-making, informs research directions, and contributes to the development of a robust theoretical framework. Systematic literature reviews are widely utilized in academia, healthcare, policy-making, and other research domains to inform best practices and guide future investigations.

Public Lecture: The Paradigm of Rasch measurement Model and Its Application
Professor David Andrich, Ph.D. graduated from the Measurement, Evaluation and Statistical Analysis Program at The University of Chicago under supervision of Professor Benjamin Wright, where his dissertation earned the Susan Colver Rosenberger prize for the best research thesis in the Division of the Social Sciences in 1973. He is especially known for his work in modern test theory, and in particular Rasch measurement theory, where his work has ranged from the philosophy of measurement, through model exposition and interpretation, to software development. His formulation of Rasch Rating Scale Model (RSM) in the 1970s open up the possibility to analysis polycotomous data such as Likert rating scale data. In this opportunity Prof Andrich explained about theorretical and philosophical aspect of measurement and in particular about modern measurement theory.

Guest Lecture: Bibliometric Analysis
Bibliometric analysis is a quantitative research method that assesses the impact, trends, and relationships within a body of scholarly literature. It involves the systematic examination of bibliographic data, such as citations, publication dates, and authorship, to gain insights into the academic landscape. Researchers use bibliometric techniques to measure the influence of individual publications, authors, or journals, identify emerging research areas, and track the evolution of scientific disciplines over time. By analyzing citation patterns and co-authorship networks, bibliometric analysis can help researchers make informed decisions about their own work, assess the significance of research topics, and identify potential collaborators. This approach is particularly valuable in academic and scientific fields for evaluating research impact and informing research strategies, making it a vital tool for evidence-based decision-making in academia and beyond. At this occasion Dr Visal Moosa from Islamic University of Maldives, Male, Maldives, who also a fellow of Scholars in Residence of Faculty of Education, Universitas Islam Internasional Indonesia, sharing theoretical and practical aspect of bibliometric analysis to FoE students.

Experts from FoE UIII and Deakin University Share Practices for Assessing Diverse Students
Experts from FoE UIII and Deakin University Share Practices for Assessing Diverse Students
September 04, 2023
Contributor: Maroof Ahmed | Editor: Supriyono
The Faculty of Education (FoE) of Universitas Islam Internasional Indonesia (UIII), in partnership with Deakin University, Australia, orchestrated an online joint lecture on September 4, 2023, that brought together two esteemed speakers, namely Dr. Bahrul Hayat, Vice Rector for Academic, Student Affairs and Human Resources at UIII, and Dr. Joanna Tai, Senior Research Fellow at Deakin University.
Part of the UIII-Deakin Joint Lecture Series 2023, the event served as a platform for the sharing of thoughts concerning non-cognitive assessment in education and inclusive assessment in higher education. Both speakers, drawing from their extensive research, emphasized the need for a holistic approach to assessment that recognizes and values the diverse attributes and backgrounds of students.
Dr. Bahrul Hayat began his lecture by emphasizing the importance of non-cognitive attributes and skills in education. He cited various research findings that underscore the significant contribution of non-cognitive attributes and skills toward student success. These attributes and skills not only promote academic achievement but also lay the foundation for life success.
He elaborated on the vast array of non-cognitive constructs, ranging from tenacity, collegiality, and enthusiasm to motivation, conscientiousness, and adaptability. Dr. Hayat also highlighted the challenges in assessing these non-cognitive attributes, such as the potential for faking, subjectivity, and the complexities of the assessment instruments. However, he proposed potential approaches like the Situational Judgment Test (SJT) and Classroom Response Systems ("Clickers") as effective methods for non-cognitive assessment in education.
"Non-cognitive is a popular term found in the literature and is one of the many terms used in lieu of social and emotional learning (SEL). In education, non-cognitive encompasses attitude, behavior, skills, and strategies that powerfully affect students’ academic performance but are not components of the core content area knowledge and skills taught to students," said Dr. Bahrul Hayat.
Switching gears to Dr. Joanna Tai's segment, she provided an overview of the Australian context for inclusive assessment within higher education. Dr. Tai emphasized the increasing diversity in student demographics and the importance of designing assessments that are inclusive of all students.
She shared her research findings on student experiences of inclusive assessment, in which students highlighted the importance of clear and consistent instructions, meaningful assessment tasks, flexible due dates, and opportunities for formative feedback. Dr. Tai also discussed the challenges in changing assessment practices, including staff attitudes, university policies, and resource constraints.
"Assessment should recognize diversity in student learning and endeavor to ensure that no student is discriminated against by virtue of features other than their ability to meet appropriate standards," said Dr. Joanna Tai.
The collaboration between UIII and Deakin University in organizing this lecture is a testament to the importance of international academic exchanges in fostering understanding and promoting best practices in education. As the world of education continues to evolve, such discussions pave the way for more inclusive and effective teaching and assessment methodologies.
