Abstract: Self Determination Theory (SDT) offers a multifaceted perspective of human motivation to foresee specific behavioral outcomes. It affords an understanding of human motivation. However, most researches on motivation have been applied to educational contexts of school-aged groups and graduate students in tertiary education. Little motivational research has explored Chinese visiting scholars in the context of adult education. In the study reported here, a questionnaire is designed to measure the relationship between different demographic variables and motivation types and the reasons behind those motivations in the context of the target language, English. The purpose of this study is to provide an empirical foundation concerning Chinese visiting scholars’ various study motivations after they obtained language qualification and a solid language base in China. The results indicate that respondents are motivated by an autonomous level of self-determination due to a desire to communicate in English with their colleagues and within their field of study. Some respondents are also motivated by social and cultural considerations.

Abstract: The multi-point practice of doctors promotes the rational flow of medical staff through the role of the market in the allocation of resources, thereby realizing the rational allocation of health human resources, promoting the diversification of medical services that reflect the labor value of medical staff, and playing an important role in accelerating the reform of public hospitals effect. This article first analyzes the doctor’s multi-point practice system environment, the interests and behaviors of the main participants, and then sorts out the gradual reform of the doctor’s multi-point practice policy and the policy constraints on the doctor’s multi-point practice, combined with the multi-point practice of doctors in Jiangsu Province. The implementation status shares the implementation of the doctor’s multi-point practice policy. The results show that the doctor’s multi-point practice attitude, subjective norms, and perceptual control are high, but the behavior intention is difficult to translate into actual behavior. Finally, based on the analysis results, it is from the policy subject, the policy stakeholder, and the policy. The environment and other aspects put forward corresponding strategies to further promote scientific and reasonable medical models, improve the social value of medical staff, mobilize the enthusiasm of doctors, and improve the hierarchical diagnosis and treatment service system.

Abstract: Indonesia is an archipelago that stretches from Sabang to Merauke and has various traditions, cultures, religions and arts. Diversity is a source of inspiration for Indonesian piano composers in creating piano works that have an Indonesian identity. Amir Pasaribu became the first composer to use Indonesian musical idioms in piano composition and was followed and continued by Mochtar Embut. Trisutji Kamal, Jaya Suprana, and Ananda Sukarlan began to expand the use of musical materials from various regional music in Indonesia. The various compositions they have compiled have also inspired pianists by making their works as a repertoire of choice during performances or recitals, both nationally and internationaly. The Indonesians recognized their work and made it a way of supporting the expansion of the piano curriculum system. Formal and non-formal institutions have begun to use Indonesian piano work as learning material in music education. The HKBP Nommensen University Music Arts Study Program revised their curriculum and then included new courses, namely; Piano Wajib (Compulsory Piano) courses for two semesters. This subject specifically studies and trains various piano works of Indonesian composers. Several other institutions, such as; Sekolah Musik Yayasan Pendidikan Indonesia (The Indonesian Education Foundation's Music School), Jaya Suprana School of Performing Arts, Institut Seni Indonesia Yogyakarta (Yogyakarta Indonesian Institute of the Arts), Life On Piano Music Center also uses the piano works of Indonesian composers as a repertoire of music learning options. However, the authors see that until now there has been no adequate source, both writings, research, and seminars that discuss Indonesian piano works in depth. For example the topic of how their works are put in the trajectory of piano history? How do Indonesian composers' piano works position in the curriculum? This study provides discourse on Indonesian piano work as a grade-based educational curriculum. This curriculum can be implemented by the Indonesian education authorities for adjustment or revision of their curriculum.
