An ACO-Based Clustering Algorithm With Chaotic Function Mapping

To overcome shortcomings when the ant colony optimization clustering algorithm (ACOC) deal with the clustering problem, this paper introduces a novel ant colony optimization clustering algorithm with chaos. The main idea of the algorithm is to apply the chaotic mapping function in the two stages of ant colony optimization: pheromone initialization and pheromone update. The application of chaotic mapping function in the pheromone initialization phase can encourage ants to be distributed in as many different initial states as possible. Applying the chaotic mapping function in the pheromone update stage can add disturbance factors to the algorithm, prompting the ants to explore new paths more, avoiding premature convergence and premature convergence to suboptimal solutions. Extensive experiments on the traditional and proposed algorithms on four widely used benchmarks are conducted to investigate the performance of the new algorithm. These experiments results demonstrate the competitive efficiency, effectiveness, and stability of the proposed algorithm.
INVESTIGATION OF THE EIGHT GRADE STUDENTS' INTEREST IN LEARNING ENGLISH AT SMP NEGERI 4 TOTIKUM

Abstract&#x0D; The purpose of the research is to investigate the eight-grade students’ interest in learning English at SMP Negeri 4 Totikum. It was a qualitative research, and the researcher conducted interviews to collect the data. The researcher chose SMP Negeri 4 Totikum as a subject because the researcher had prior data that the students were interested in learning. Therefore, the researcher wanted to know specifically in English subject. Based on the findings of the research, the researcher concluded that majority of the eighth-grade students' interest in learning English at SMP Negeri 4 Totikum were low, majority of them uninterested in learning English. There were several factors supporting the interest, namely: attention, willingness, feeling happy, teaching materials and teachers, participation, environment, family, and society.
Verbal and Visual Communication Elements Used in Music Video Clip

The recent study is aimed to analyze and find the use of verbal and visual communication elements and also the correlation between the visual elements and verbal representation with the meaning of the song. This study used documentation method in collecting the data. The data were colected through three steps: first, downloading the data from the internet; second, watched and listened carefully the music and continued to read the song lyrics repeatedly; third, finding the sign of meaning and classified the data according to their type; and for the last part, the message that stand behind the sign were analyzed.

Translation of Indonesian Economic Terms into English in Annual Reports

Translation becomes very important in this fast growing information era in which people from different speaking countries need more resources to develop their knowledge. Banks are one of field that demand the assistance from translators to translate their annual reports. However, it is not as easy as it looks since translators may find issues in translating an annual report into target languages because he/she needs to find equivalent translation of source language for such terms into target languages. The aim of this study is to analyze the procedures applied in translating the Indonesian economic terminologies into English in the annual report. This paper is a library research where the data is in the form of documents or printed out texts. The method that is implemented in analyzing the data in this study is the qualitative one proposed by Creswell (2009). There were eight procedures applied by the translator in translating the Indonesian economic terms into English in the annual report. They are transference, naturalization, through translation, transposition or shifts, modulation, recognize translation, synonym and couplets.
Textual Metafunctions in Inauguration State Speech Text of President Joko Widodo

This research aimed to find out the textual metafunction in the text of the state speech inauguration of the President Joko Widodo. Textual metafunction is realized by a thematization system in the form of elements of themes and rheme. Textual metafunction realized by the thematization system is related to grammatical elements used to express information in a clause. This research applied a descriptive qualitative approach. The data source of this research was in the form of an oral source from the video of President Joko Widodo's inauguration speech for two periods, namely 2014-2019 and 2019--2024 which was downloaded through the site www.youtube.com. This type of research data was written data. Written data was obtained from the results of oral transcription into written form so that data forms were obtained, such as words, phrases, groups of phrases, clauses, and text units. The theory used is the Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) theory proposed by Halliday and Matthiessen (2014). The method and techniques of collecting data applied in this research were the listening method and the note taking technique. Then, method and techniques of analysing data applied were the distribution method and basic techniques for direct elements. In addition, the method of presenting the results of data analysis applied was a formal method in the form of signs and symbols as well as an informal method in the form of words, phrases, phrases, clauses, and texts. The results showed that both of the themes of the text of the inauguration speech President Joko Widodo was concerning the sovereignty of the people and the Unitary Republic of Indonesia. Textual metafunction was examined based on a thematization system in the form of theme elements (topical, interpersonal, textual) and rheme. Based on the analysis, there was an increase in the use of themes from 2014 (42.2%) to 2019 (57.8%). Meanwhile, the use of rheme in 2014 was dominated by the material processing rheme, which is 27 uses, while in 2019 it was dominated by the behaviour processing rheme, which was 40 usage.
The intellectual diet in pastoral spaces of activity in digital design education

During lockdown, students are excluded from the inspiring learning space of the university. Students receive a different "intellectual diet" here than they do in the university. In the studio learning of the traditional face-to-face university, the artistic and cognitive impulses are curated with a design pedagogical concept. This concept contains visual, intellectual and social impulses. This concept did not exist in the previous three semesters - it was left to the respective family and home environment of the students during the lockdown. While this is generally the case for distance learning students, it was exacerbated during the lockdown. Students operate in remote-learning mode via primarily digital channels. For the case study presented here, the question of the holistic nature of these stimuli presents itself. The adjective "pastoral", for example, is to be understood as the hypothesis that, over the course of the past two semesters, in addition to subject-related teaching, teachers were partly responsible for the aesthetic and – this remains to be demonstrated – the pastoral dimensions of a degree course in design. On the basis of in-depth interviews, the case study develops categories of teaching activity within digital spaces of action to which students attribute a particular degree of effectiveness. The feedback was evaluated by means of a written survey and in-depth interviews with students of online programmes at the bachelor's and master's level.
Pengaruh Media E-Learning Quipper School pada Pembelajaran Berbasis Masalah untuk Meningkatkan Motivasi dan Hasil Belajar Peserta Didik

The purpose of this study is to determine whether or not there is an influence of Quipper School e-learning media on a problem-based learning model to increase motivation and learning outcomes of students in grade X MIPA 1 at MAN Sidenreng Rappangin Chemical Bonding subject. This research is a quasi-experimental research, quantitative with experimental research methods. The design used in this study was a randomized pretest-posttest design. The data obtained were analyzed by employing descriptive and inferential statistical analysis by using SPSS version 15. From the data analysis, it is discovered that the average value of motivation and learning outcomes of the experimental class is greater than that of the control class. In addition, from testing the T test hypothesis, a significance value of 0.001 &lt; 0.05 is obtained for motivation and 0.000 &lt; 0.05 for learning outcomes, which means that motivation and group learning outcomes using the Quipper School e-learning media on the PBM model have an influence compared to the group without using the Quipper School e-learning media on the PBM model.
The Effects of Inductive-Deductive Grammar Instruction on Students’ Grammatical Accuracy

The research investigated the effect of inductive-deductive teaching instruction developed from the five-step procedure by Widodo (2006). To be more specific, this research attempted to explore the significant difference between the combined inductive-deductive approach and conventional approach (deductive approach only) on the EFL students’ grammar achievement. A quasi-experimental design specifically non-equivalent group design was applied in this research in which the two experimental and control groups were compared. The subject of this research was the first-year university students of UIN Alauddin Makassar who were registered in the intensification program of English language. The instruments used were the initial and final tests of students. The results showed that after treatment, the experimental group increased by 0.36 or 36% and the control group was only 0.22 or 22%. In conclusion, there were significant achievement differences between the two groups after undergoing treatment: the combined inductive-deductive approach (experimental group) and deductive approach (control group).
Ordered Completion for Logic Programs with Aggregates

In this paper, we show that first-order logic programs with monotone aggregates under the stable model semantics can be captured in classical first-order logic. More precisely, we extend the notion of ordered completion for logic programs with a large variety of aggregates so that every stable model of a program with aggregates corresponds to a classical model of its enhanced ordered completion, and vice versa.

The data collection used in this study is formative tests, observations, interviews, and documentation. The research instruments used were observation sheets, formative test questions, and interviews. The data analysis technique is by calculating the mean and percentage of completeness obtained from the results of formative tests and observation sheets in each cycle. Based on the results of data analysis from the results of research that has been carried out, it can be concluded that the use or application of the traditional postbox game can be done well and has a positive impact which can be seen from the increase in the results of observations of student activities in the first cycle of 70.83 and cycle II of 89.58. Learning by using the traditional postbox game in addition to improving listening skills in Indonesian language learning, we also participate in preserving one of the nation's cultures. This increase can be seen from the results of the average listening skill in the initial conditions of 57.42, increasing to 71.48 (an increase of 14.06) in the first cycle, then increasing again to 85.19 (an increase of 13.71) in the second cycle.
Statistics and Analysis of Similar Figures Questions in Zhejiang Senior High School Entrance Examination in Recent Five Years—— From the Perspective of Core Literacy

Based on the perspective of core literacy, this paper makes a statistical analysis of the similar figures test questions in the eight high school entrance examinations in Zhejiang Province in recent five years, and analyzes the comprehensive difficulty of each year’s test questions from five dimensions of cognitive level, background, operation, reasoning and knowledge content with the help of comprehensive difficulty model. The results show that: the core literacy of the similarity test mainly includes logical reasoning, intuitive imagination and mathematical operation; Background comprehensive difficulty is lower than the other four dimensions, and the difficulty of the five dimensions is unbalanced, but the overall difficulty of the similar figure test is larger. Based on this finding, this paper analyzes the reasons for the difficulty of the test from the perspective of core literacy, and finally puts forward teaching strategies to help the development and improvement of students’ core literacy.
Digital Tools and COVID-19: Shifting Public–Private Boundaries

In this paper, we attempt to provide starting points for a discussion on immediate and longer term consequences of COVID-19-induced uses of digital technologies for the distinction of the public and the private spheres. We start with clarifying definitions of the public and the private spheres in relation to the concept of privacy. What is considered private is at least in part contextually determined by conventions and social, political, economic and technological developments. From this perspective, we set out to critically evaluate the COVID-19-induced large-scale introduction of new digital tools in two essential areas of life: the workplace and education. We discuss the role of technology and its immediate concomitant legal or ethical challenges. The paper concludes with reflections on the possible longer-term normative effects of the use of digital tools in the context of the COVID-19 containment on the demarcation of the public and private spheres.

Does Design of Smiley Emoji with Different Realistic Level in A Printed Poster Have Any Significant Effects on Stimulating User’s Awareness

This research was aimed to study the effects of smiley emoji in printed poster with flat and skeuomorphism design approach in stimulating user’s awareness. Six safety awareness posters with six different smiley emoji designs have been developed and tested, i.e. line emoji, coloured line emoji, vector emoji, line and shadow emoji, three-dimensional (3D) emoji and realistic emoji. The quasi-experimental design was applied in answering the research question derived and the data obtained was analysed using one-way ANOVA and post hoc test. 700 first year engineering students from Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) were involved as the research sample. Each awareness poster was evaluated by 100 students including a text only poster, i.e. without emoji, as the control group. User Experience Questionnaire (UEQ), specifically stimulation scale, was utilised in obtaining feedback from respondents. In conclusion, this study indicated that the use of smiley emoji in an awareness poster was more effective than poster with text alone. However, the design aspects of the smiley emoji are found to have an impact on users. Therefore, this study recommends coloured line emoji, vector emoji, line and shadow emoji and 3D emoji to be the better design choice for awareness poster in printed form.

READING STRATEGIES USED BY STUDENTS OF DIFFERENT LEVELS OF ENGLISH READING PROFICIENCY

Reading plays a vital role in academic development, particularly when learners have to work over a huge amount of foreign language materials for their own specialist subjects (McDonough &amp; Shaw, 2013). Strengthening English reading ability is necessary for students to promote individual ability in university education. This study was conducted to explore if there were any differences in the use of reading strategies among university students of different levels of self-rated English reading proficiency. 957 students from 6 universities in the North of Vietnam participated in the study. The results of the study through the questionnaire adapted from Oxford’s (2013) Self-Strategic Regulation model (S2R) show that there were significant differences in the use of reading strategies among students of different self-rated levels of English reading proficiency, especially between students of good and poor proficiency. The highest frequencies in the use of each strategy category were in the group of self-rated good readers and the students of the poor group reported the lowest frequencies. The study also reveals individual strategies used the most and the least by each group of students.
Social Media, Youth Mobilization and Urban Crime

This paper was focused on exploring the drivers of urban crime through social media mobilization of youths. Adopting the use and gratification theory, the paper x-rays the extent to which social media has been adopted by youths in Nigeria for social participation and activities including the perpetration of crime. In addition to changing the way information is shared, social media also provides a veritable tool for the creation of criminal networks which have proved challenging to effective functionality of justice system in Nigeria. The paper further explores the intersection between poverty, youth violence, drug peddling, and activism on the one hand, and social media utilization. To address the problem of urban crime, the paper suggest that government at all levels should engage in massive employment of youths and provides greater focus on positive utilization of social media.
Integrated Disaster Information Transmission Platform based on Connecting Multi-channel

Recently, public interest in disaster warning system has been on the rise as infectious diseases have increased and the patterns of disaster have become more complicated. In this paper, we propose Multi-channel based Disaster Information Transmission Platform (MDITP) that can effectively transmit disaster information by connecting multi-channel. MDITP is a technology that can spread a disaster information to the public within a short time by existing independently operated disaster information systems and linking broadcasting and communication environments. In addition, it is possible to enhance the understanding of disaster information by applying multimedia based content from the perspective of public. In terms of disaster management, the Platform will help reduce damage through rapid response.
A fast method to seek the mean and variance of the summation of lognormal variables

The sum of lognormal variables has been a topic of interest in several fields of research such as engineering, biology and finance, among others. For example, in the field of telecommunications, the aggregate interference of radio frequency signals is modeled as a sum of lognormal variables. To date, there is no closed expression for the probability distribution function (PDF) of this sum. Several authors have proposed approximations for this PDF, with which they calculate the mean and variance. However, each method has limitations in its range of parameters for mean, variance and number of random variables to be added. In other cases, long approximations as power series are used, which makes the analytical treatment impractical and reduces the computational performance of numerical operations. This paper shows an alternative method for calculating the mean and variance of the sum of lognormal random variables from a computational performance approach. Our method has been evaluated extensively by Monte Carlo simulations. As a result, this method is computationally efficient and yields a low approximation error computation for a wide range of mean values, variances and number of random variables.
