Individual and Province-level Determinants of Unemployed NEET as Young People’s Productivity Indicator in Indonesia During 2020: A Multilevel Analysis Approach
Authors: Naraswati Ni Putu Gita , Jatmiko Yogo Aryo
Published: March 2022

Nowadays, employment has become one of the focus of attention for developing countries, including Indonesia. This is one of the urgencies that must be addressed considering that the Indonesian population is entering the demographic divident period. Success in achieving the demographic divident is very dependent on the employment conditions of young people in realizing a low level of dependence. However, obstacles in terms of education and employment are still experienced by youth which can be seen from the percentage of NEET from Year-on-Year (YoY), especially in 2020 it is exacerbated by Covid-19 pandemic. Based on these problems, it is necessary to research NEET in Indonesia in 2020. This study uses 2020 National Labor Force Survey (Sakernas) data which is analyzed by using multilevel binary logistic regression analysis. The unemployed status of young NEETs is influenced by gender, age, marital status, highest education completed, disability status, classification of the area of residence, and recent migrant status. There is a multilevel effect in the NEET assessment of young people as evidenced by the influence of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and Human Development Index (HDI). The research results are expected to be used as a reference in making policies to optimizing the mismatch program on the pre-employment card to bridge the young age of job seekers with available job opportunities and based on the province-level variable, the province government are expected to maximize the province-level variables that affect the tendency of NEETs to remain active in the labor market. that are targeted towards the NEET problem in Indonesia.

Authors: Nugroho Adin , Nasrudin Nasrudin
Published: March 2022

Exchange rate volatility occurred when exchange rate movement was wildly fluctuating which could depict uncertainty. Since Indonesia used an open economy, exchange rate fluctuation became important to be maintained due to crisis potential. This research was conducted to analyze the effect or impact of exchange rate volatility on the Indonesian economy in general and few related case using time series analysis. ARIMA (Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average) and EGARCH (Exponential Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity) were used for measuring the volatility in the period between 1997-2021. Then, regressions were applied to analyze the impact of exchange rate volatility on few macroeconomic indicators. The result shows that exchange rate volatility yielded a significant negative effect on GDP Growth rate, export, and import. Logistic regression was used to analyze the factors that were affecting the crisis potential. The result showed only a negative GDP growth rate and high volatility that gave more risk which could lead to crisis. Therefore, it is important to keep exchange rate volatility stable.

Authors: Diksa I Gusti Bagus Ngurah , Srijayanti Dewa Ayu
Published: March 2022

In 2020, Indonesia's exports decreased by 2.61 percent due to declining global and domestic demand during the COVID-19 pandemic. The decline in exports was not too deep due to the increase in non-oil exports by 16.73 percent, while non-oil exports fell by 10.10 percent. This shows the potential for non-oil exports to support the Indonesian economy during the pandemic. Seeing the impact of COVID-19 on export performance then used the ARIMA method. Based on the research, it was found that at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, Indonesia experienced a slump in export performance, especially non-oil and gas. This is due to various policies regarding restrictions on mobility.

Authors: Manurung Monika Stevany , Yuniasih Aisyah Fitri
Published: March 2022

Sustainable economic growth with a low and stable inflation rate is one of the goals of macroeconomic policy in improving people's welfare. High inflation can be detrimental to economic growth in the medium and long term, while a certain level of inflation is needed to move the economy. Therefore, the question arises about the level of inflation that does not have a negative impact on economic growth. This study aims to estimate the inflation threshold level and identify its effect on Indonesia's economic growth 1981-2019. The research begins by determining the best model among the models that regress inflation on economic growth with quadratic regression, Hansen's (2000) threshold regression, and Mubarik's (2005) threshold regression (2005). The best model is the Mubarik threshold regression model (2005) with an inflation threshold of 6.85 percent. Mubarik's (2005) threshold regression analysis was reused in the model involving the FDI variable, the inflation threshold was 7.11 percent, and FDI had a positive effect. Inflation below the inflation threshold encourages economic growth, while inflation above the inflation threshold is detrimental to economic growth. The result of the estimated threshold level is higher than the inflation target by BI, so that inflation targeting can be increased.

Authors: Kurniasari Fenanda Dwitha , Putri Yulia Atma
Published: March 2022

Employment is one of the areas affected during the covid-19 outbreak. The government of Indonesia has taken numerous measures to restrain the growth rate of covid-19, such as the implementation of social restriction, which leads to a multidimensional problem – the employment problem. Indonesia’s unemployment in 2020 has increased compared to 2019. According to Statistics Indonesia, the open unemployment rate in August 2020 is about 1.84 percent higher than August 2019, and from the total working-age population in August 2020, 14.28 percent of them were affected by covid-19. This study aims to investigate the resilience of workers affected by the covid-19 outbreak in maintaining their jobs by comparing the survival rates in the sectors most affected by covid. The methodology used in this research is survival analysis in time resilience of workers affected by the covid-19 outbreak in maintaining their jobs. The conclusion obtained from this study is that the sector significantly influences worker’s time resilience (p-value < 0.05). Among the six sectors most affected by covid-19, workers in the construction sector has the highest time resilience compared to 5 other sectors – most survive workers in maintaining their jobs during covid-19 outbreak, followed by the accommodation and food services, other services activities, manufacturing, wholesale and retail trade sectors. The most affected sector for the time resilience of workers during the COVID-19 outbreak is transportation and storage.

Published: March 2022

In conducting a mobility analysis using Mobile Positioning Data, the most critical step is to define each customer's usual environment. The initial concept of mobility used is the movement that occurs from and to every usual environment, so errors in determining the usual environment will cause incorrect mobility statistics. Therefore, Anchor Mobility Data Analytic (AMDA) is proposed for Home-Work Location Determination from Mobile Positioning Data. This algorithm uses clockwise reversal to make it easier to classify someone in their usual environment. Unfortunately, only about 80% of the raw data can be used to establish usual environments. The remaining 20% do not have sufficient data history. This study found that the accuracy of AMDA in determining monthly home location was 98.8% at the provincial level and 88.7% at the regency level. As for the determination of monthly work locations, 98.9% at the provincial level and 70.4% at the regency level.

Authors: Suryono Hady , Kuswanto Heri , Iriawan Nur
Published: March 2022

The global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by countries in the world have significant implications for national development planning in Indonesia in the period 2015 to 2030. The Agricultural sector is one of the most important sectors in the world and has a very important contribution to achieving the goals. Availability of accurate paddy production data must be available to measure the level of food security. This can be done by monitoring the growth phase of paddy and predicting the classification of its growth phase accurately and precisely. The paddy growth phase has 6 classes with the number of class members usually not the same (imbalanced data). This study describes the results of the classification of paddy growth phases with imbalanced data in Bojonegoro Regency, East Java in 2019 using machine learning algorithms on the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform. Classification is done by Classification and Regression Tree, Support Vector Machine, and Random Forest. Oversampling technique is used to deal the problem of imbalanced data. The Area Sampling Frame survey in 2019 conducted by BPS was used as a label for classification model training. The results showed that the overall accuracy (OA) using the Random Forest algorithm by modifying the dataset using oversampling was 82.30% and the kappa statistic was 0.76, outperforming the SVM and CART algorithms.

Authors: Maulana Ahmad Firman , Ekaria Ekaria
Published: March 2022

The development of real Gross Domestic Regional Product (GDRP) 2010 of all cities in Kanti region increased during 2003-2018. However, when viewed the growth rate in aggregate, it slowed during the period 2010-2018. One of the causes is the shift of large and medium-size industry (LMI) agglomeration from Kanti region to Kangga region. This study aims to find out the location and the dynamics of the shift of LMI agglomeration using the Hoover-Balassa index that is presented through thematic maps. In addition, the study also analyses the effect of the shift of LMI agglomeration and other factors on economic growth in Kanti region using the regression analysis of panel data. The individual units used are five administrative cities in the Kanti region with annual units from 2003 to 2018. Fixed effect model with seemingly unrelated regression (FEM-SUR) is used to estimate the parameters of the economic growth model in Kanti region. The results showed that Kanti region was agglomerated in North Jakarta and East Jakarta. Labor-intensive potential factor has a negative and significant effect, while the labor productivity of LMI and domestic investment has a positive and significant effect on economic growth in Kanti region. North Jakarta is an area that despite the shift of LMI agglomeration but still able to increase its economic growth, while East Jakarta has decreased. So, the Provincial Government of Jakarta need to adapt the implementation of LMI agglomeration in North Jakarta to encourage economic growth in East Jakarta and West Jakarta in accordance with regional spatial planning for industry.

Published: March 2022

Smoking habits in Indonesia have been formed since the colonial era. Smoking habits that need attention are in poor households. In 2020, Riau Islands Province as the one of youngest provinces in Indonesia has a smoking prevalence of 26.16% and the percentage of poor people is 5.92%. This condition is the basis for researchers to conduct a study that aims to determine the demographics characteristics of smokers. This study uses raw data from the National Socio-Economic Survey (SUSENAS) in Riau Islands Province in March 2020. The variables used are smoking status, gender, age group, education level, region, and recent migrant. The output of the processing stage is that the prevalence of smoking will be greater in the male population (OR = 132.04), the age group of 46-65 (OR = 4.77), the age group of 66 and over (OR = 2.11), the junior high school level (OR = 4.66), the senior high school level (OR = 5.98), the college level (OR = 3.13), living in the urban area (OR = 1.22) and the recent migrant (OR = 3.12). Thus, it is necessary to make a specific policy following the above characteristics in reducing smoking habits among poor households.

Authors: KULOĞLU Muhammet Esad , ÖCEL Muhammet
Published: March 2022

Recently, the world has become a global village and people have become global citizens. Global elements should be included into the teaching and training of this new type of citizenship. The Ministry of National Education of Turkey (MoNE) has internationalized its curriculums as many other educational institutions did. In this context, it has added global, international and intercultural elements into its curriculums. In this study, learning objectives that exist in MoNE secondary education English curriculum were examined in terms of internationalization. The document analysis method of qualitative research design was mainly adopted to collect and analyze data. According to the findings of the study, (1) the curriculum needs to include more internationalization elements, and (2) the global, international and intercultural elements integrated into objectives of the curriculum did not show a homogenous distribution according to the grades and the themes of the curriculum.
Do Transitions from Liberation Movements to Political Parties Guarantee Good Governance? The Case of ZANU-PF and the ANC
Authors: Tsholo Keaobaka
Published: March 2022

The purpose of this study is to examine the transition of liberation movements into political parties and whether that guarantees good governance or not. Since the end of the Second World War and the Cold War, the number of democratic states has increased on all continents. African states began to explore democratic governance from independence and the end of apartheid. Furthermore, the liberation struggle fought by many African movements led to independence and ‘decolonisation’. The emergence of these liberation movements was to emancipate and liberate their respective states so that the rule of oppressive imperialists such as the British could come to an end. The transition of the former colonial states ensured that the movements which fought the liberation struggle turned into political parties. The study uses the cases of the Zimbabwe African National-Patriotic Front (ZANU-PF) in Zimbabwe and the African National Congress (ANC) in South Africa to interrogate the transition into political parties and examine if good governance has been achieved because of that. The study has found that the implications of former liberation movements turning into political parties have not had the foreseen intentions. With the neopatrimonial theory, the study substantially examines whether ZANU-PF and the ANC have been in accordance with or against the dynamics of good governance informed by liberalism values.
The Qualitative Review of Human Security in South Africa: A Four Levels Analysis
Authors: Zondi Sikhumbuzo
Published: March 2022

Post-1994 South Africa is founded on values of human dignity, equality and ensuring fundamental human rights for all which are enshrined in its democratic constitution. This comes as the advent of democracy in South Africa from the apartheid past coincided with the advancement of the United Nations Development Programme’s (UNDPs) reconfigured concept of security from a state-centric to a people-focused ideal. The new concept of human security integrates all rights, needs and security of men together with aspirations for sustainable and inclusive development. It advocates for the protection and empowerment of people against threats to their lives, something that the apartheid state failed to do as it was the main orchestrator of human insecurity in the country. Likewise, the article is a qualitative review of the role that human security has played in post-South Africa’s policymaking decisions using the level of analysis approach. The four levels feature the individual, local/provincial, domestic/state and global analysis. These levels of analysis help in shedding qualitative understanding of how a single dynamic in socio-political empowerment affects another. It concludes that despite the notion of human security being widely articulated as a conceptual basis for the country’s official documents, it lacks de facto operational power to shaping actual policy actions.
South Africa’s Curriculum Transformation: Insights from Post-Independence Africa and Post-Civil Rights Movement in the United States
Authors: Tella Oluwaseun
Published: March 2022

The #MustFall campaigns, student-led protests that began at the University of Cape Town (UCT) in 2015 and reverberated across South African universities, ignited calls for curriculum transformation, the abolition of Eurocentric epistemologies, and the embrace of indigenous knowledge systems. Given that despite more than two-and-a-half decades of majority rule, South African universities continue to promote hegemonic Western thought, the call for genuine curriculum transformation is understandable. Against this backdrop, this article investigates the challenges associated with curriculum transformation efforts in South Africa. It offers potential solutions by drawing lessons from transformation efforts in the humanities in postcolonial African states and African-American studies in the civil rights movement in the United States (US).
Impact of Institutional Quality and Governance on Financial Inclusion for Women in South Africa: A Case of Gauteng Women Entrepreneurs
Authors: Ojo Tinuade Adekunbi
Published: March 2022

This paper describes a study of South Africans’ national perception and alignment to financial inclusion for women. It explains the impact of institutional roles and governance on financial inclusion in South Africa. There is ample evidence of government eff orts on implementing financial inclusion in the country. Still, the significance of how governance and institutions promote access to finance for women has been overlooked in the literature. The main objective of this study is to identify the impact of institutional quality and governance on financial inclusion for women in South Africa. Data for analytical purposes supporting the research has been obtained from primary sources through semi-structured open-ended interviews collected from 2019 to 2020. The research approach employed and coded data from a recent study on 30 women entrepreneurs, five key policymakers on women empowerment and five financial institutions supervisors on financial inclusion for women. The results obtained suggest that there is little institutional quality and governance on financial inclusion for women, and further eff orts must be intensified to achieve equal access to financial services in South Africa. Furthermore, the paper presents recommendations for policymakers that, if implemented, would prove fruitful. Policymakers are expected to facilitate gender-mainstreaming/strategies and working policies, monitoring and evaluation, financial literacy, and transparent legal framework on financial policies addressing women.

Authors: Rodríguez Corina Iris , Ruiz de Galarreta Víctor Alejandro , Tabera Anahí
Published: March 2022

El presente artículo se basa en la caracterización y evaluación de las condiciones de explotación y uso doméstico del recurso hídrico subterráneo, relacionadas con el abastecimiento de servicios sanitarios que posee la población. La ciudad de Tandil cuenta con tendido de red de agua potable y sistema cloacal, pero ambos servicios no cubren la totalidad del área urbana. En este trabajo se analiza el Barrio Cerro Los Leones, ubicado al Oeste de la ciudad, que no es abastecido por estos dos servicios básicos. Los habitantes de dicho barrio explotan el agua subterránea a partir de perforaciones del acuífero freático, realizadas sin parámetros de diseño que garanticen la protección sanitaria. Además, debido a la falta de un sistema de red cloacal, los pobladores vierten sus excretas en pozos resumideros, realizados con escasas medidas de protección, y en muchos casos próximos a las perforaciones de bombeo. Esta situación de explotación del recurso hídrico, sumada a las condiciones sociales en las que habitan y a la falta de planificación y control por parte de las autoridades, genera importantes impactos, tanto sobre la calidad del agua subterránea, en este caso evaluada mediante parámetros bacteriológicos, así como sobre la calidad de vida de la población.

Published: March 2022

<El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo determinar la curva clave de sedimentos, que relaciona el caudal líquido con la descarga sólida de los desagües pluviales, de una microcuenca de la ciudad de Resistencia (capital de la provincia del Chaco) a partir de nueve eventos medidos desde septiembre de 2009 a marzo de 2010. El término descarga sólida se refiere la cantidad de sedimento en movimiento y su valor se obtuvo del producto entre el caudal líquido y la concentración de sólidos suspendidos. Los datos fueron recolectados aguas arriba de dos bocas de tormenta, donde se realizaron aforos de caudales y análisis de turbiedad y concentración de sólidos suspendidos del efluente pluvial. Con los valores de descarga líquida y sólida, de los distintos eventos, se ajustaron dos curvas claves de sedimentos que presentaron un ajuste aceptable. Se observaron diferencias entre los polutogramas de los efluentes de sendas bocas de tormentas debidas a las diferencias existentes en el uso de suelo de sus áreas de aporte. Se pudo constatar que la descarga sólida tiende a aumentar con el aumento de la descarga líquida. La información obtenida resulta de utilidad para monitoreos y controles tempranos en cuencas urbanas localizadas en áreas de llanura

Published: March 2022

Los suelos cultivados bajo cubierta se deterioran por el riego con aguas salinas e inexistencia de lavado. Se evaluaron los efectos del riego por goteo y del drenaje sobre el rendimiento de tomates y las distribuciones de humedad edáfica y sales. En un invernadero se construyeron 6 lomos, en 3 se enterraron a 0.5 m tuberías ranuradas de PVC y tanques de 0.2 m³ en la descarga. Fueron instaladas cintas de goteo en tres profundidades: 0.1 y 0.2 m (T1 y T2) y superficial (T3), estableciendo 6 tratamientos, 3 con drenaje T1CD, T2CD y T3CD y 3 sin drenaje T1SD, T2SD y T3SD. Se determinaron humedad volumétrica Wv en 6 sitios del lomo con sensores Decagon, ubicados a 3 profundidades y 3 distancias desde el eje y pH, CEex y RAS en muestras de suelo extraídas en superficie, fondo y lateral del lomo. Se registraron peso y número de frutos de 10 plantas por tratamiento. Los principales resultados fueron: a) diferencias entre Wv medias dentro del lomo estadísticamente significativas respecto del eje vertical, pero no del eje horizontal; b) el drenaje favoreció el almacenaje y la uniformidad de distribución de la Wv; c) ambos goteos subterráneos produjeron volúmenes drenados, no así el goteo superficial; d) T2CD obtuvo los mayores rendimientos en peso y número de tomates, e) el drenaje prácticamente no varió el pH, disminuyó un 35.8% la CEex y un 17% la RAS, f) la respuesta productiva se asoció más con el riego que con la salinidad

This type of research is observational by distributing questionnaires to 100 respondents using the non-probability sampling method of selecting samples. The results of this study indicate that personal factors get a mean score of 4.08 classified in high class, social factors get a mean score of 4.08 classified as high class. So the most dominant factor influencing purchasing decisions for Emina products is Personal Factors, while the lowest factors influencing purchasing decisions for Emina products are Social Factors.In general, the characteristics of consumers in choosing halal cosmetic products have a good level of understanding. The need to use halal products is the biggest indicator in reflecting personal factors and social factors. In general, consumer awareness of the importance of consuming halal products (halal cosmetics) is quite good. Local halal cosmetics industry players should be able to create products with halal labeling, so as to improve product image and product quality.
Rompiendo binarismos y convencionalismos. Prácticas descolonizadoras en la extensión universitaria
Authors: Zarauza Graciana , Parra Fabiana
Published: March 2022

Este estudio partió de la reflexión crítica en torno al estatuto inferiorizado que tiene la extensión universitaria frente a la investigación y a la docencia en la academia y la educación superior. Nuestro objetivo es demostrar que el no reconocimiento de esta actividad se debe a una lógica categorial dicotómica y jerárquica —propia del sistema occidental colonial moderno— que opone la actividad teórica a la actividad práctica, así como la actividad reflexiva a la experiencia corporizada. Se argumentó la necesidad de abogar por prácticas integrales en los proyectos políticos-académicos de las universidades argentinas, con el fin de revalorizar la extensión universitaria, así desarrollar una propuesta descolonizadora superadora de las teorías y las prácticas que se fundan sobre los binarismos modernos. La metodología utilizada fue la sistematización de experiencias, donde partimos de los registros escritos de las prácticas de extensionistas en la Facultad de Trabajo Social de la Universidad Nacional de La Plata (UNLP)- Argentina; se realizó una reconstrucción histórica y organizamos la información obtenida, posibilitando un ejercicio crítico y transformador. El estudio concluyó mostrando la necesidad de reconfigurar las propuestas de las universidades desde una alternativa descolonizadora a la luz de las nociones del punto de vista situado, de la corporización de las experiencias y de los sentipensares.

We fabricated surface-emitting quantum cascade lasers with photonic crystal resonators whose active layers were strain-compensated InGaAs/AlInAs multiple quantum wells to operate at 4.3 μm. We tested two kinds of square-lattice photonic crystals consisting of circular and pentagonal InGaAs cylinders as a unit structure. We examined their output power and far-field pattern to find that both of them were improved by lowering the photonic-crystal symmetry to achieve a high extraction efficiency. The maximum output power was 50 mW at 77 K and the far-field pattern was a single peak with a divergence angle smaller than 1° for the pentagonal cylinder structure. In addition, we attributed the lasing mode to a B2-symmetric (quadrupole) eigenstate on the Γ point for the circular cylinder structure by observing the polarization dependence of the far-field pattern and comparing it with calculations by the k · p perturbation method.

Published: March 2022

Surveying the elderly population appears to be strategic and decisive for the economy of a country. Deciding or planning how many years of work are sufficient to be able to retire, determining who will be affected by public health policies (e.g. exemptions for drugs and visits in certain income brackets) or free vaccination campaigns, are some examples of why there is such interest on the part of scholars, but above all on the part of governments who must make informed choices.
The aim of this work/report is to investigate the role of insurance companies and the Italian situation as regards long-term health care for dependent persons, as well as a comparison with other leading countries, such as the United States, the United Kingdom, France and Germany.

DevOps and continuous delivery have impacted the organizational structures of development and infrastructure groups in software-producing organizations. Our research aims at revealing the different options adopted by the software industry to organize such groups, understanding why different organizations adopt distinct structures, and discovering how organizations handle the drawbacks of each structure. By interviewing 68 carefully-selected IT professionals and analyzing these conversations through a Grounded Theory process, we identified conditions, causes, reasons to avoid, consequences, and contingencies related to each discovered structure (segregated departments, collaborative departments, API-mediated departments, and single department). In this way, we offer a theory to explain organizational structures for development and infrastructure professionals. This theory can support practitioners and researchers in comprehending and discussing the DevOps phenomenon and its related issues, and also provides valuable input to practitioners' decision-making.
A native tensor-vector multiplication algorithm for high performance computing
Authors: Martinez-Ferrer Pedro J. , Yzelman A. N. , Beltran Vicenç
Published: March 2022

Tensor computations are important mathematical operations for applications that rely on multidimensional data. The tensor--vector multiplication (TVM) is the most memory-bound tensor contraction in this class of operations. This paper proposes an open-source TVM algorithm which is much simpler and efficient than previous approaches, making it suitable for integration in the most popular BLAS libraries available today. Our algorithm has been written from scratch and features unit-stride memory accesses, cache awareness, mode obliviousness, full vectorization and multi-threading as well as NUMA awareness for non-hierarchically stored dense tensors. Numerical experiments are carried out on tensors up to order 10 and various compilers and hardware architectures equipped with traditional DDR and high bandwidth memory (HBM). For large tensors the average performance of the TVM ranges between 62\% and 76\% of the theoretical bandwidth for NUMA systems with DDR memory and remains independent of the contraction mode. On NUMA systems with HBM the TVM exhibits some mode dependency but manages to reach performance figures close to peak values. Finally, the higher-order power method is benchmarked with the proposed TVM kernel and delivers on average between 58\% and 69\% of the theoretical bandwidth for large tensors.
Digital protein sequencing with one binary measurement per residue
Authors: Sampath G
Published: March 2022

Conventional
protein sequencing methods and recently reported theoretical and
experimental single molecule methods are based on analog
measurements. Here a digital method for use in the bulk or with a
small number of molecules is introduced. It is based on the
superspecificity property of transfer RNAs (tRNAs) and requires only
one binary measurement per residue/amino acid (AA). When
the terminal residues of 20 copies of a protein molecule are cleaved
and each brought together with a different tRNA in one of 20
different cavities, tRNA-AA binding occurs in exactly one cavity. The
bound AA is chemically separated from the tRNA into a channel where
its presence can be detected electrically or optically. The result is
a binary high output from the cognate channel that is independent of
the AA, the other 19 outputs are low, and the AA's identity is given
by the position of the high bit in the 20-bit output. One way to
detect the freed AA is to translocate it through a nanopore in an
electrolytic cell under electrophoresis. A
feasibility and accuracy analysis and related
computations and simulation results are presented.

Published: March 2022

This study presenting the result of forecasting sales of Hex Nuts between the Trend Linear Line (TLL) method and Monte Carlo Simulation. To determine the appropriate method, the Mean Average Percentage Error (MAPE) is used to evaluate theerror rate. We find that the Monte Carlo simulation outperforms the TTL method, where the MAPE value of the Monte Carlo simulation is 7,61%. Based on the result, the Monte Carlo simulation is the appropriate method to forecast the sales rate of Hex Nuts in the PT. KMS.

Pedagogical beliefs and learning assessment in science: Teacher’s experiences anchored on theory of reasoned action
Authors: NAMOCO Sarah
Published: March 2022

Employing the phenomenological qualitative research design, this study explores the prevailing pedagogical belief and experiences of six secondary school teachers concerning their practices related to assessment of learning in science subjects among the public secondary school students in the Division of Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines. Anchored on the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) argument that additional factors, referred to as external, which in the case of this study pertain to pedagogical beliefs and mandate from the curriculum guide issued by the Department of Education, can influence the behavior of the teachers towards assessment strategy choices. This study has been done to verify whether external factors play a role with the teacher’s behavior. Employing the directed content analysis, the data were analyzed in the framework of TRA. Employing the directed content analysis approach, findings of this study suggest that the assessment of learning practices of the teachers are shaped by their pedagogical beliefs, social norms and intentions. This study contributes to an understanding whether external factors directly shape the teacher’s behavioral intention to carry out a certain assessment strategy to measure student’s learning.

Published: March 2022

The aim of the research is to examine preservice science and preservice mathematics teachers’ mathematics anxiety and beliefs about the nature of mathematics, as well as to reveal whether they differ according to the teacher training program. Moreover, this study investigates whether there is a relationship between beliefs about the nature of mathematics and mathematics anxiety. The study consisted of a survey research and was carried out with 213 junior and senior preservice elementary science and mathematics teachers. Data collection tools were Philosophical Thoughts about the Nature of Mathematics Scale (PTNM) and Mathematics Anxiety Scale (MAS). Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze mathematics anxiety and beliefs scores of preservice elementary teachers. The study revealed that most of the preservice teachers’ scores on beliefs about the nature of mathematics were high and their mathematics anxiety scores were low. The results indicated that there were significant differences in both belief scores and mathematics anxiety scores in favor of preservice mathematics teachers. In addition, there was a high negative correlation between preservice teachers’ PTNM and MAS scores.
