Authors: Subagyo Ivan Evander , Saraswati Dewi Savitri , Trilaksono Teddy
Published: July 2019

The creative industry is currently growing very rapidly in developing countries. This is indicated by various government policies to increase the competitiveness of this industry. Value chains are needed to gain the competitive advantage within this industry at every additional step of the chain. However, there is no comprehensive research on the creative industry value chain in developing countries, such as Indonesia, especially in small and medium enterprises (SMEs). This study attempts to explore the concept of industrial chain values to narrow the gaps that exists in the literature. The research method used is a qualitative approach through semi-structured interviews and observations of 11 SMEs consisting of 5 creative business sub-sectors, namely the culinary, fashion, craft, photography, and visual communication design sectors. The results of this study indicate that, in creative industries, co- creation is the differentiator on the value chain activities, especially those that offer customization. Meanwhile, the use of social media is also considered as an important value chain activities that must be used to effectively communicate the value of the business. The results of this study can be used by stakeholders in Indonesian SMEs as a reference for formulating competitiveness strategies for this creative industry.

Authors: Guerch da Silva Zanandrea , Oliveira Pavão Ana Cláudia
Published: July 2019

As políticas públicas em pról da Educação Inclusiva no Brasil, demandaram desde 2008, que os professores tivessem novos conhecimentos e práticas com metodologias diferenciadas para atender aos alunos com deficiência no ensino regular. Assim, as instituições públicas de ensino passaram a ofertar Cursos, na modalidade a distância, para formação de professores para atuar no Atendimento Educacional Especializado-AEE. Nesse sentido, este estudo tem por objetivo verificar o impacto da oferta do Curso de AEE, modalidade a distância, na formação e prática dos alunos egressos. A metodologia consiste em uma pesquisa descritiva exploratória, de caráter qualitativa, do tipo estudo de caso, sendo os sujeitos os professores egressos da 10ª Edição do Curso de AEE, ofertado pela Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, RS/BRASIL. Como instrumento de pesquisa foi utilizado um questionário, semiestruturado com perguntas abertas e fechadas. Para a análise dos dados, foi utilizada a análise de conteúdo, com três categorias iniciais: perfil do egresso, situação profissional e prática no AEE. Os resultados apontam que os egressos percebem os impactos da formação e prática, por meio dos conteúdos abordados, da qualidade das interações e materiais, utilizados no Curso e das modificações que foram realizadas nas escolas.
Desenvolvimento de Técnicas de Visualização e Modelagem do Desenho 3D para Estudantes do Ensino Médio da Cidade de Bagé – RS: um Estudo de Caso
Authors: Corrêa Ferreira Cristiano , Duarte Ferreira Vera Lúcia
Published: July 2019

O desenho técnico é uma ferramenta de extrema relevância para concepção de um projeto, uma vez que possibilita a comunicação de informações técnicas entre projetista e fabricante. Sendo assim, imprescindível sua inclusão nos currículos dos cursos de engenharias desde os primeiros semestres. Porém, para o aluno ingressante em qualquer engenharia, recém saído do Ensino Médio, tal ferramenta é relatada como de difícil compreensão e utilização. Especificamente, os estudantes demonstram insegurança com as possibilidades do desenho. Ademais, uma parcela significativa associam o desenho a uma ferramenta de representação artística, que permite apenas expressar melhor o traçado de formas abstratas.  Nesse contexto, este trabalho apresenta um relato de experiência de um projeto de extensão, vinculado à Unipampa, que teve por objetivo apresentar a tecnologia da modelagem 3D para alunos do Ensino Médio na cidade de Bagé - RS. Visando habilitar os futuros universitários a identificar, modelar e propor soluções para alguns problemas da área de engenharia e do design, utilizando o software CAD solidworks, bem como elaborar material didático-pedagógico, no caso uma apostila. O projeto foi desenvolvido metodologicamente via oficinas pedagógicas, integralmente desenvolvidas no laboratório de desenho. Vale enfatizar que a equipe executora do projeto, contou com dois professores, um de desenho e outro da matemática, bem como alunos-monitores graduandos em engenharia e matemática. Ao final das oficinas no intuito de avaliar a experiência tendo como fio condutor a percepção dos estudantes quanto às atividades apresentadas e executadas foi aplicado um questionário de avaliação. A confiabilidade dos resultados desse questionário foi determinada via alfa de Cronbach e foi 0,88. Os resultados são apresentados por meio da representação de objetos, desenvolvidos pelos alunos, em três níveis de complexidade: baixa, média e alta. É importante ressaltar, que dos resultados obtidos constatou-se um grande empenho por parte de todos em fidelizar ao máximo a representação de cada objeto escolhido.

Published: July 2019

Este artigo é um recorte de uma proposta de pesquisa que visa utilizar a simulação computacional como ferramenta de apoio para o processo ensino-aprendizagem. A pesquisa envolveu 48 participantes. Na fase de diagnóstico preliminar, aproximadamente 80% dos estudantes avaliaram que o uso das simulações facilitaria ou facilitaria muito o aprendizado teórico-prático, 16% já utilizaram esse recurso durante os estudos e todos gostariam de ter acesso aos mesmos durante às aulas, porém 62% relataram que entendem pouco sobre o uso dessas ferramentas no processo de aprendizado. Já na fase de protótipo da simulação, os participantes foram submetidos a um pré-teste e um pós-teste com onze questões objetivas referentes a situações emergenciais relacionadas à crise convulsiva e crise asmática. A média de acertos no pré-teste, ou seja, antes de participar da simulação foi 5,15 (DP:1,77). Após participarem das simulações a média de acertos passou para 8,93 (DP:1,6; p<0,01). Concluiu-se que simulação não está sendo utilizada no contexto educacional dos participantes desta pesquisa. Os resultados da aplicação do experimento mostraram uma melhoria de desempenho dos participantes de modo a poder afirmar que as simulações podem contribuir para o aprendizado sobre atendimento pré-hospitalar nas emergências médicas do tipo crise convulsiva e crise asmática.

Authors: Toscano Rafael Moura , Becker Valdecir
Published: July 2019

A tecnologia proporciona aos professores e terapeutas uma infinidade de recursos para fornecer orientações e suporte instrucional ao desenvolvimento de novas competências e habilidadesa. Essa realidade evidencia um cenário de conceitos de mídia, interação e aprendizado complexo, que atualmente não está amparado por modelos teórico-metodológicos tradicionais da comunicação, computação e pedagogia. Avançando nesta temática, este trabalho propõe um arranjo teórico rumo a criação de um framework de interações para descrição, planejamento e produção de sistemas para o ensino de competências e habilidades aos portadores de TEA. O framework conceitual proposto surge da integração teórica do Design Audiovisual aos estudos da taxonomia de Objetivos Educacionais. Somado ao aporte teórico, uma revisão do estado da arte revela a natureza compartilhada de mídia, entre o a criança autista, familiares, profissionais clínicos e educacionais, além de quatro estágios de interação. Desta forma, a pesquisa contribui para estratégias de ensino que integram níveis de interação a partir de domínios cognitivos, afetivos e psicomotores, que impactam a geração de conteúdos e sistemas adaptativos as necessidades da pessoa com o TEA.

Playful User Interfaces. Interfaces that Invite Social and Physical Interaction Anton Nijholt. (Editor) Berlin: Springer, 2014. 352 pp.ISBN 978-981-4560-95-5

Este libro trata sobre las interfaces de usuario, en particular aquellas que permiten interacciones lúdicas con las aplicaciones, conocidas como interfaces de usuario lúdicas (Playful User Interfaces). Cuando las interfaces son "lúdicas", los usuarios se sienten desafiados o son persuadidos de participar en la interacción social y física porque esperan que sea divertido. Si bien en estos casos las aplicaciones deben permitir la interacción lúdica, no se trata de aplicaciones necesariamente de entretenimiento. Las interfaces lúdicas pueden encontrarse para aplicaciones que tienen objetivos educativos o se orientan al cambio de comportamiento (actitud, social o físico).

Authors: Haris Yuliah Abdul
Published: July 2019

This paper mainly discusses the relationship between language and culture. Language and culture are closely related. If one does not understand the cultural backgrounds, he or she cannot learn the target language really well because any language is an integral part of its culture. Moreover, misunderstanding between the speaker whose first language is English and the speaker whose first language is not English occur between them.  The writer believes that there is still an important cultural element missing from foreign language education in Indonesian EFL classes in such as in STMIK Handayani Makassar. Therefore, English learning in STMIK Handayani Makassar should not only to learn the language, but also to learn its culture. To improve students’ sensitivity for cultural difference between the West and the East and to raise their cultural awareness, English teachers at schools are required not only to teach language but also to impart cultural background knowledge and further to deal with the relationship between language and culture well. This article starts with the necessity of teaching cultural awareness in English teaching at schools, and then this paper discusses some common cultural language mistakes by English Foreign Language learners in STMIK Handayani Makassar.

The study aimed at investigating Senior High School English teachers’ views on the drawbacks and the strengths of the employement of Multicple Choice Question as a summative assessment. Rooting within qualitative research paradigm, the current study employed descriptive qualitative design. The data were collected through in-depth interview with three experienced EFL teachers of a prominent state senior high school in Banjar, West Java. The results of the interview indicated that there are three strengths in using Multiple-Choice Question (MCQ) as a summative assessment. These strengths included teachers’ view that MCQ could result in quick and easy scoring, facilitate the assessment of varied language skills and encourage the students to answer the question carefully. Additionally, there were three drwabacks in using MCQ as a summative assessment such as teachers’ view that MCQ could only facilitate on low order of critical thinking, have low positive washback and require a lot of time in its designing phase. Interestingly, two out of three participants thought that MCQ has been a mandatory type of summative assessment suggested by the government. However, in fact, there has been no government policy which recommend certain type of summative assessment. Therefore, looking at the strengths and drawbacks of the use of MCQ could help to be better informed before deciding to use MCQ as a summative assessment.

Authors: Fikri Muhammad Subhan , Purbani Widyastuti
Published: July 2019

This paper (1) explores learners’ initial perceptions of English, and (2) explains the development of the perceptions before coming to Kampung Inggris. This paper is based on ethnographic research using interpretivism as a paradigm to understand the learners’ perceptions. The research site was Kampung Inggris TulungRejo village, Pare, Kediri, East Java. The participants were the students in the village. The data were collected through interview. The data were analyzed using iterative model from Miles, Huberman and Saldana (2013). In this model, data condensation, data display and conclusion drawing/verification were used to analyze the data. In the data analysis process, multiple coding and categorizations were used to figure out patterns. The theoretical framework was used in data interpretation. This study found out that (1) the learners’ initial perception on English varied according to their experiences. Most of the perceptions before coming to Kampung Inggris were negative. These perception were affected by the learners’ learning process, the environment and the surrounding people. In the learners’ reality, English was viewed merely on its intrinsic feature. (2) The learners’ perception was developed due to their life experiences. After experiencing some turning points, they believed that English was important for their lives. This change of perception also changed their attitude and became their motivations in learning English in Kampung Inggris.

ELLIPSIS TYPES IN STEPHENIE MEYER’S “THE SHORT SECOND LIFE OF BREE TANNER” USING A SYNTACTIC ANALYSIS
Authors: Masniati Andi -
Published: July 2019

Ellipsis is an omitting part of the sentence that may occur in the English novel. Some authors write a novel tend to use ellipsis in their work. Learners who read English novel are likely to find the author’s writing style which study is aimed to explain the types of the elliptical sentence used by the author in the novel The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner. This research applied a qualitative method and employed a source of data from Stephenie Meyer’s Novel and some references to support this study. A further technique of analyzing data in this research is always linked to the theory and methods based on Syntactic Analysis. Subsequently, this research uses the syntactic analysis form, Noam Chomsky. As a result, the researcher found that there are three types of elliptical sentence occurred in the novel. The types of elliptical sentence are a nominal ellipsis, verbal ellipsis, and clausal ellipsis. Therefore, based on the research findings, the researcher concludes that the types of ellipsis the author used in her novel based on the evidence are verbal ellipsis, nominal ellipsis, and clausal ellipsis. As a suggestion, it is essential to learn light on the readers or writers’ ability to employ ellipsis types in their work as it is necessary in more economizing and conceiving sentence.

Inclusion and exclusion in democracies: A theoretical comparison of John M. McCormick and Iris M. Young
Authors: SEN Onur
Published: July 2019

Elections, as one of the main pillars of modern democracies, are necessary but not sufficient condition for ideal form of representative democracy. John M. McCormick and Iris M. Young problematize the democracy understanding solely based on fair and competitive elections. While they both agree on the problem of modern democracies as executed by wealthy elites, there is a divergence in their proposed solutions. While McCormick sees the problem as inequalities between classes and proposes excluding the wealthy elites from dominating the political representation and decision making, Young proposes an inclusive approach that empowers marginalized groups. This article compares and contrasts these two theoretical approaches to reform democracy in a way that would deliver its promise as a system of comprehensive policy making process
The paraleucobryoid Campylopus complex (Leucobryaceae) in South American páramos
Authors: Allen Bruce , Buck William R.
Published: July 2019

The paraleucobryoid Campylopus complex consists of a small group of Andean species distinguished by a leaf cross section identical to that of Paraleucobryum. The complex differs from Paraleucobryum only in having cygneous rather than erect setae and capsule stomata absent rather than present. Here we treat four species, only two of which have previously been recognized in Campylopus. They are C. albidovirens Herzog, C. pittieri R.S.Williams, C. densifolius (Thér.) B.H.Allen & W.R.Buck, comb. nov. and C. ochyriorum B.H.Allen & W.R.Buck, sp. nov. A key is given to the four species; the two nomenclatural novelties are described in detail and illustrated.
On moss genera Hylocomiadelphus Ochyra & Stebel and Rhytidiadelphus (Limpr.) Warnst.
Authors: Ignatov Michael S. , Ignatova Elena A. , Kuznetsova Oxana I. , Fedosov Vladimir E.
Published: July 2019

The moss family Hylocomiaceae is studied for the generic level taxonomy within a molecular phylogenetic approach. We confirm segregating of the species formerly known as Rhytidiadelphus triquetrus to Hylocomiadelphus Ochyra & Stebel from the genus Rhytidiadelphus. Hylocomiadelphus forms a clade with Loeskeobryum and Meteoriella, sharing with both genera cordate to auriculate leaf bases and non-squarrose leaves, and with the former undulate leaves and reticulate exostome teeth ornamentation. However, Loeskeobryum differs from Hylocomiadelphus in having paraphyllia, while Meteoriella has a straight capsule and reduced peristome, likely caused by its epiphytic ecology. In the group of species closely related to R. squarrosus, in addition to R. subpinnatus, the third species with North Pacific distribution is described as R. pacificum. Macrothamnium is found deeply nested in Rhytidiadelphus, although no nomenclatural implications are suggested at the moment due to insufficient sampling. Hylocomium splendens var. splendens and var. obtusifolium were found intermingled in the phylogenetic tree, indicating no correlation between morphology and variation in ITS region, thus supporting a view that these taxa are merely environmentally induced morphs.

Authors: Luo Ru-Zhen , Zhang Xiao-Hong , Zhang Chun-Mei , Liu Yan-Hui
Published: July 2019

Objective

To explore the effects of self-directed learning readiness and learning attitude on problem-solving ability among Chinese undergraduate nursing students.

Methods

A convenience sampling of 460 undergraduate nursing students was surveyed in Tianjin, China. Students who participated in the study completed a questionnaire that included social demographic questionnaire, Self-directed Learning Readiness Scale, Attitude to Learning Scale, and Social Problem-Solving Inventory. Pearson’s correlation analysis was performed to test the correlations among problem-solving ability, self-directed learning readiness, and learning attitude. Hierarchical linear regression analyses were performed to explore the mediating role of learning attitude.

Results

The results showed that learning attitude (r=0.338, P<0.01) and self-directed learning readiness (r=0.493, P<0.01) were positively correlated with problem-solving ability. Learning attitude played a partial intermediary role between self-directed learning readiness and problem-solving ability (F=74.227, P<0.01).

Conclusions

It is concluded that nursing educators should pay attention on students’ individual differences and take proper actions to inspire students’ self-directed learning readiness and learning attitude.
People as the Roots (of the State): Democratic Elements in the Politics of Traditional Vietnamese Confucianism
Authors: Nguyen Tai-Dong , Ho Manh-Tung
Published: July 2019

In this paper, the concept of “people as the roots” (of the state) is explored through its myriad expressions in Vietnamese history: the emphasis of Vietnamese feudal rulers on fulfilling the people’s will, loving the people, and ensuring peace for the people. From these historical examples, the authors argue that in the politics of Vietnamese traditional Confucianism, there has been the presence of democratic elements. Yet, they do not reflect a full-fledged democracy and should be seen only as signs of village democracy. This view holds an important implication for the process of democratization of modern Vietnamese society: while the concept of “people as the roots” is essential for a village democracy and is valuable for building a democracy, it does not necessarily mean a straightforward translation to a modern democracy. Here, the authors suggest that civil society will play an important role in making this transition smoother.

Published: July 2019

Fecal impaction is a common and potentially dangerous disease that occurs in all age groups with a frequency of approximately 15%. Children, the elderly and people with disabilities are considered the most vulnerable. It is a complex diagnostic and therapeutic problem. Coprostasis usually occurs in conditions of chronic or severe constipation, anatomical anorectal abnormalities, and neurogenic or functional gastrointestinal disorders. Fecalomas are one of the manifestations of coprostasis and can lead to a large range of complications. Only knowledge of possible complications and their timely diagnosis can prevent the development of life-threatening conditions. In our work, we present the case of giant fecaloma, complicated by hydronephrosis and obstructive pyelonephritis.
Social entrepreneurship: legislative contributions
Authors: Ramos Maria Elisabete
Published: July 2019

This study evaluates whether the legal ecosystem related to the incorporation of cooperatives and IPSS, their governance models, the professionalization of their managers, and the transparency and access to funding favor or inhibit social entrepreneurship. The new rules on the incorporation of cooperatives and the provision of three models of management and supervision facilitate the development of social entrepreneurship. Investor members promote the diversification of cooperative funding sources. The Portuguese legal environment presents weaknesses in the professionalization of cooperative managers and in the transparency of IPSS. The “Portugal Inovação Social” Program, crowdfunding and social entrepreneurship funds are innovative ways of investing in social entrepreneurship. However, the regulatory framework of crowdfunding and social entrepreneurship funds suffers from some weaknesses that may inhibit the development of these instruments.

Akar wangi memiliki nilai ekonomis tinggi karena dapat diproses menjadi produk olahan, seperti minyak atsiri dan produk kerajinan. Permintaan dan harga minyak atsiri meningkat sejak tiga tahun terakhir. Harga minyak atsiri tahun 2017 mencapai Rp. 4.000.000,- per kg. Kondisi ini mendorong petani untuk kembali melakukan budidaya akar wangi di lahan mereka. Area produksi akar wangi terbesar Indonesia berada di Kabupaten Garut. Kabupaten ini menyumbang 90 persen produksi akar wangi Indonesia. Terdapat enam kecamatan di Kabupaten Garut yang merupakan sentra produksi akar wangi. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di empat kecamatan, yaitu Cilawu, Samarang, Bayongbong, dan Leles. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menganalisis rantai nilai pemasaran akar wangi dan melihat struktur serta perilaku pasar. Metode penelitian menggunakan rantai nilai Porter. Struktur pasar membahas konsentrasi pasar dan hambatan masuk, sedangkan perilaku pasar melihat aktivitas lembaga pemasaran pada tiga fungsi pemasaran. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan struktur pasar akar wangi terkonsentrasi lemah dengan nilai 0,05 dan tidak ada hambatan masuk dengan nilai 5 persen. Lembaga pemasaran akar wangi melakukan fungsi-fungsi pemasaran (pertukaran, fisik, dan fasilitas) dan terdapat enam saluran pemasaran dari petani hingga konsumen. Tidak ada pelatihan dan pengembangan yang didapatkan pelaku usaha, kecuali pada sektor industri kerajinan akar wangi.

Kebutuhan sumber daya lahan dan air cenderung meningkat karena pertumbuhan jumlah penduduk, kepentingan pembangunan, dan perubahan gaya hidup. Persaingan menggunakan lahan dan air pada akhirnya akan menggeser ketersediaan mereka untuk pertanian. Status petani dan keberlanjutan bisnis usahatani akan mengukur keberadaan subak di tengah kebutuhan lahan untuk kepentingan non pertanian. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara status petani dan kelangsungan usaha tani dengan keberadaan subak di Kecamatan Kuta Utara. Metode penelitian menggunakan metode deskriptif kuantitatif. Jumlah responden adalah 60 anggota petani yang dikumpulkan secara proporsional random sampling. Teknik analisis data menggunakan analisis SEM-PLS. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa status petani dan keberlanjutan bisnis usahatani memiliki pengaruh positif dan sangat signifikan dengan keberadaan subak. Nilai pengaruh tidak langsung yang merupakan pengaruh status petani melalui kelangsungan usaha pertanian lebih besar daripada pengaruh langsung. Ini membuktikan bahwa status petani belum maksimal mempertahankan keberadaan subak. Variabel pembentuk kontinuitas usaha usahatani memiliki nilai tertinggi yang berarti bahwa variabel tersebut dapat dijadikan patokan dalam mempertahankan keberadaan subak. Saran untuk Kramasubak di Kecamatan Kuta Utara adalah bahwa diharapkan dapat lebih aktif dalam melakukan kegiatan kelompok tani yang dapat membantu perekonomian. Pelaksana di bidang pertanian / akademisi dapat membantu mengubah pola pikir petani dan dapat membantu dalam memasok panen ke vila atau restoran lokal. Pemerintah dapat mendukung untuk menyiapkan mesin penggilingan padi yang dilengkapi dengan pengering.

Indonesia adalah produsen akar wangi terbesar kedua setelah negara Haiti. Sentra akar wangi terbesar berada di Kabupaten Garut yang mampu menyumbang sekitar 90 persen dari total produksi minyak atsiri akar wangi di Indonesia. Produksi akar wangi segar di Kabupaten Garut mengalami penurunan dari tahun 2012-2016. Hal ini dikarenakan adanya penurunan harga minyak atsiri dunia. Budidaya akar wangi menjadi pekerjaan sampingan bagi sebagian besar petani di Kabupaten Garut karena komoditas ini baru dapat dipanen pada usia 12 bulan. Petani melakukan budidaya menggunakan sistem polikultur dalam satu lahan, dengan harapan petani mampu menghasilkan pendapatan bulanan. Tidak hanya minyak atsiri yang dapat dihasilkan akar wangi, produk kerajinan juga mampu meningkatkan nilai tambah. Penelitian dilaksanakan di empat kecamatan dengan 89 petani akar wangi di Kabupaten Garut. Data yang diambil adalah data produksi di tahun 2017. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian adalah model Just and Pope. Model ini telah mengakomodasi risiko dalam persamaan produksi dengan memasukkan varians dari persamaan produksi. Koefisien variasi digunakan untuk menghitung risiko produksi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat 5 variabel yang memengaruhi produktivitas akar wangi, diantaranya lahan, bonggol, pupuk kandang, pupuk kimia, dan tenaga kerja. Variabel pupuk kandang, pupuk kimia dan tenaga kerja mampu meningkatkan risiko yang ditunjukkan dengan tanda positif. Sedangkan variabel lahan dan bonggol akar wangiditunjukkan dengan tanda negatif yang berarti dapat mengurangi risiko.
