Authors: Istiqomah Suryandari , Sarwoto Sarwoto , Trinarningsih Wahyu
Published: January 2023

The COVID-19 pandemic had an impact on all service industries, specifically hospitality, which has become increasingly competitive. Therefore, innovation and service improvement are needed to provide the best service for consumers by determining the voice behavior of their employees. This study examines the effect of transformational leadership on employee voice behavior, specifically frontline at hotels in Central Java. The mediating variables consisting of work and engagement were used to clarify the mechanism related to the effect of transformational leadership on voice behavior. The sampling technique used in this research is purposive sampling, namely by using the criteria of frontline employees who have worked for at least 1 year. Data were collected from 216 frontline employers at hotels and analyzed using the SEM PLS. The result showed that transformational leadership and work engagement can indirectly promote employee voice behavior. Furthermore, the meaning of work can promote voice behavior with a longer mechanism through work engagement.

Authors: Sutarso Yudi , Budi Setyawan Djoko
Published: January 2023

This study examines the role of customer knowledge and trust in the technology acceptance model (TAM) on internet banking (IB) in Indonesia. It proposes a hypothesis that customer knowledge and trust moderate the relationship between perceived usefulness and ease of use with attitudes toward IB, which in turn, it can also influence intention to use IB. The sample was taken by purposive sampling technique from the customers of the three largest banks in Indonesia, namely Bank Mandiri, Bank Central Asia (BCA), and Bank Rakyat Indonesia (BRI). There were 280 respondents from these banks, and the data were analyzed by using the Structural Equation Model with the Partial Least Square approach. The significant finding in this study is that customer knowledge moderates positively the relationship between perceived ease of use and usefulness with customers’ attitudes. In addition, trust moderates negatively the relationship between perceived usefulness and attitudes toward IB. These findings extend the TAM model by adding the moderating role of customer knowledge and trust to the bank and recommend managers to increase customer adoption of IB.

Symbioses between Green Marketing and Sustainability Exemption Policy in the Competition Law Application in Malaysia
Authors: Ramaiah Angayar Kanni , Hussein Safinaz Mohd
Published: January 2023

Objective: The Malaysian Competition Act 2010 (MCA 2010) strictly prohibits anti-competitive practices in the absence of any redeeming virtue that promotes economic efficiency or social benefits whereas its detrimental effect on competition is proportionate to the benefits provided. The   ‘green marketing’ (GM) is about product indorses environmental sustainability policy. Our planet today is confronted with various environmental disasters such as air and water pollution, food shortage, plastic pollution, and deforestation. Furthermore, industrial waste and chemicals are found everywhere. Therefore, it’s extremely pertinent to divert all attention to focus at every level on attaining sustainable environmental policy. The corporations have considered producing and marketing in a more environmentally friendly manner and the consumers are also aware of its importance. The resulting universal war against global warming and environmental protection has developed a reason to incorporate broader non-economic environmental-related policy i.e., the sustainable environmental benefits goals into the anti-competitive exemption policy to resonate with the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within the   Competition Law and Policy CLP). Hence it is considered arguable, that GM's societal benefits and sustainability objective outweigh its countervailing anticompetitive effects. Methodology: Therefore, the author is resolute that an endorsement for GM as for exclusion as a ‘sustainable benefit’ exemption is relevant to obtain a fair competitive advantage for GM in Malaysia. However, in the endorsement of the GM concepts the discussion will firstly address greenwashing issues before proceeding to the study on inroad of the ‘sustainability exemption policy’ within the CLP generally and specifically in Malaysia.
Findings: The research concludes with exemption options concerning specific mergers, horizontal agreements, and state aid exclusion policy under CA2010.

Authors: YUCETURK KURTULMUS Gamze
Published: January 2023

Osmanlı Devleti’nin yönetimi altındaki Cezayir, 19. yüzyılda büyük sömürge imparatorluklarından Fransa’nın yayılmacı politikasının kurbanı olmuştur. Böylece Cezayir, bir yüzyılı aşkın bir süre kimliksizleştirilmeye ve sömürgecilik sisteminin getirdiği düzene karşı büyük bir direniş ve mücadele göstermek zorunda kalmıştır. Bu mücadeleye kalemleriyle katılanlar ise sömürgeciliğin izlerini edebiyata taşımıştır. Bunlardan biri de birçok çağdaşının aksine bütün eserlerini Arapça vererek dillerinin yok edilmesi tehdidine karşı direniş gösteren Zuhûr Venîsî’dir. Henüz genç bir kadınken Kurtuluş mücadelesine tanık olan Venîsî, direnişteki bu önemli rolünün yanı sıra roman yazan ilk kadın olmasıyla döneminin şartlarında yaşadığı bölge için öncü rol de üstlenmiştir. Yaşamakta olan yazarlardan Venîsî, bugüne kadar roman, biyografi, makale ve öykü türünde çok sayıda eser kaleme almıştır. Kendi yaşamını taşıdığı adeta birer günlük niteliğindeki bu eserlerinde ise geriye dönüş tekniğinin öne çıktığı görülmektedir. Makalede 2004 yılında yayımlanmış Rusîkâdâ ve’l-Uhreyât-Mecmû‘atu’l-E‘mâlu’l-Kâmile adlı hikâye koleksiyonundan seçilmiş beş öyküsü üzerinden Cezayir halkının bağımsızlık mücadelesine ve sosyo-ekonomik durumuna dair Venîsî’nin gözlemleri ve bunları anlatım biçimleri incelenecektir.
KÜRTLERİN KÖKENİNE DAİR RİVAYETLERİN KELÂMÎ YORUMU -el-Kuleynî, Şeyh Saduk ve İsmail Hakkı Bursevî Örneği-
Authors: AKMAN Mustafa
Published: January 2023

Kürtler de öteki bütün ırklar gibi insan popülasyonunun bir unsurudur. Hal böyleyken bazı dinî nitelikli eserlerde onların, cinlerin ortada görünen nesli oldukları ifade edilmektedir. Buna göre Hz. Süleyman’ın bazı cariyelerine tecavüz etmiş ve bu cariyelerden doğan nesiller çoğalınca yeryüzünü ifsat etmişlerdir. Hz. Süleyman da “onları dağlara sürün” demiştir. Bunlara, “dağlara sürülenler” anlamına gelen Kürt denilmesinin nedeni budur. el-Kuleynî, el-Mes‘udî, Şeyh Saduk, Ragıb el-İsfahânî ve İsmail Hakkı Bursevî gibi yazarların daha başka iddialarına göre Hz. İbrahim’in ateşte yakılması fikrini ortaya atan kimseler Kürt asıllıymış. Bunlar, cin neslinden olmaları hasebiyle kendilerinden kız da alınmaz imiş.

Yüzyıllarca sanki öyleymiş gibi kuşaktan kuşağa aktarılan bu iddia, maalesef dinî mahiyeti olan eserlerde de aktarıla gelmiş ve dolayısıyla kimi zaman ve yerde Şiî Kuleynî’nin takipçilerinde olduğu gibi bir inanç ve yanı sıra Sünnî ve Sûfȋ Bursevî’de zirve yapan nefret duygularına da neden olabilmiştir. İleri sürülen iddialar ve bu iddialardan mütevellit ortaya çıkan fiilî duruma binaen konu öncelikle yaratılış ve sonra da muaşeret olarak kelâm ilminin ilgi alanına girmektedir. Şüphesiz insan nevinden bir varlık olarak Kürtler de Adem’in neslindendir. Dolayısıyla bu zevatın Kürtler hakkında ortaya koydukları bu heretik değerlendirmelerin kabulü kelâm sistemi açısından imkânsız olmasının yanı sıra insanî olarak da tasvibi olanaklı değildir.
GÖÇ OLGUSUNUN KRİZ YÖNETİMİ BAĞLAMINDA DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ: TÜRKİYE’DE SURİYELİ GÖÇÜ SONRASI GELİŞTİRİLEN POLİTİKALARIN İNCELENMESİ

Beklenmedik bir zamanda ortaya çıkan, etkisi uzun süren, örgütlerin işleyişini olumsuz yönde etkileyen durumlar kriz olarak ifade edilmektedir. Krizlerin olumsuz etkilerinin çeşitli yöntemlerle azaltılması ve ortaya çıkardığı dezavantajlı durumların avantajlı durumlara dönüştürülmeye çalışılması ise kriz yönetimi olarak adlandırılmaktadır. Kriz ve kriz yönetimi kavramları daha çok doğal afetler ve ekonomik olumsuzluklar için kullanılmış olsa da büyüklük ve etkisine göre göç olgusu ve bu olgunun beraberinde getirmiş olduğu olumsuzluklar da kriz olarak değerlendirilebilmektedir. Mekânsal anlamda bir yer değiştirme olarak ifade edilen ve ekonomik, sosyal, siyasal vb. pek çok alanda etkisi olan göç, yönetimler tarafından iyi yönetilemedikleri takdirde yönetimleri zor durumda bırakabilen bir kriz durumu ortaya çıkarabilmektedir. Yönetimler aldıkları tedbirler ve geliştirdikleri kamu politikaları ile bu süreci kontrol altında tutmaya, krizi bertaraf etmeye ve/veya etkisini azaltmaya çalışmaktadırlar.
Türkiye geçmişten günümüze göç olgusu ile sürekli karşı karşıya olan bir ülke olarak çeşitli politikalar geliştirmiş ve göç süreçlerini yönetmeye çalışmıştır. 2011 yılında Suriye’de hükümeti protesto etmek için başlayan olayların iç savaşa dönüşmesi sonucu milyonlarca insan Suriye’nin sınır komşusu durumundaki Türkiye’ye göç etmiştir. Türkiye’ye bu göç dalgasıyla gelen insanların başta “misafir” oldukları, kısa zamanda geri dönecekleri düşüncesi, yaşanan göç karşısında etkili kararların geç alınmasına ve ortaya çeşitli sorunların çıkmasına neden olmuştur. Suriyeli göçü, Türkiye’yi güvenlik, barınma, eğitim, ekonomi, kentleşme gibi birçok alanda etkilemiştir. Bu çalışmada Suriyeli göçü ve bu göçün neden olduğu sorunlar karşısında Türkiye’nin almış olduğu kararlar, geliştirdiği politikalar kriz yönetimi bağlamında değerlendirilecektir.

Bahâeddîn Nakşbend’in önde gelen halifelerinden Muhammed Pârsâ, tasavvuf ve diğer dinî ilimlerde çeşitli eserler kaleme almıştır. Onun tasavvuf alanında yazdığı eserlerin başında kuşkusuz Faslü’l-hitâb gelir. Gerek tasavvuf ehli gerekse diğerleri tarafından kullanılan bu yapıt, onun en meşhur ve en hacimli eseridir. Pârsâ; bu eserinde tevhîd, fütüvvet, fenâ, bekâ, müşâhede, ricâlü’l-gayb, Ehl-i beyt ve sahâbeye muhabbet gibi konuları şeriat ve tarikat esaslarına göre ele almıştır. Sözü edilen hususlarla ilgili olarak çeşitli hadisler ve rivayetler aktarmış ve tasavvufun inceliklerine dair bazı değerlendirmeler yapmıştır. Kimi zaman da eserde ismi geçen şahıslar hakkında birtakım bilgiler aktarmıştır. Ancak Pârsâ’nın bu eseri Türkiye’de yeterince tanınmamış ve hakkında gerekli çalışmalar yapılmamıştır. Dolayısıyla eserin Türkiye’de daha fazla ve daha sağlıklı tanınması amaçlanarak hazırlanan bu makalede onun Faslü’l-hitâb isimli eseri çeşitli yönleriyle araştırılmış ve hakkında etraflıca bilgi verilmiştir. Buna göre söz konusu eserin adının nereden geldiği ve hangi isimlerle anıldığı üzerinde durulmuştur. Kitabın içeriği, kaynakları ve tercümelerinden bahsedilmiş ve ulaşılabilen tüm yazma nüshaları kayıt altına alınmıştır. Eserden kimlerin faydalandığı saptanarak ortaya konmuş ve ondan istifade edilerek oluşturulan risaleler tek tek tesbit edilip yazılmıştır. Ayrıca eserin müellifinin Şiîlikle itham edilmesi meselesi tartışılmış ve böyle bir iddianın yerinde olmadığı sonucuna varılmıştır.

Published: January 2023

A biographical film is a film that tells the life story of the character. There are many messages and values contained in biographical films, because they are taken from true stories. One of them is the film Guru Bangsa Tjokroaminoto. This film tells the journey of a fighter and pioneer of Indonesian independence, Haji Oemar Said Tjokroaminoto. The focus of this study is to find out the representation of masculinity from HOS Tjokroaminoto and how the impact of this masculine trait on film audiences, masculinity is the social role, behavior and meaning assigned to men. The masculinity indicators are taken from Deborah David & Robert Brannon's theory of masculinity, namely No Sissy Stuff, Be a Big Wheel, Be a Sturdy Oak, Give em Hell. This study uses a qualitative research method, while to examine the film using theAnalysis approach Framing from Zong dang Pan & Gerald M. Kosicki. The results showed that HOS Tjokroaminoto represented the masculinity of Be a Big Wheel, Be a Sturdy Oak, Give em Hell. However, the researcher did not find that HOS Tjokroaminoto represents the masculinity of No Sissy Stuff, because in his daily life he uses jarit cloth, while the jarit itself is identical to the cloth worn by women. The impact of HOS Tjokroaminoto's masculinity on film audiences is that some of the characteristics of HOS Tjokroaminoto's masculinity should be imitated by the current generation.
Jejak Kaum Sayyid dalam Pribumisasi Islam di Dieng
Authors: Hidayatullah Ahmad
Published: January 2023

Dieng has a long history until it finally became an area with the majority of the population being Muslim, even understanding Ahlussunnah wal Jama'ah. This cannot be separated from the process of indigenizing Islam in the Dieng plateau by the Sayyids – which is an extension of Walisongo's struggle. Using this type of qualitative research with a critical-historical discourse analysis approach (Discourse-Historica Approaches/DHA), this study tries to explore how the indigenization of Islam was carried out by the Sayyids in the Dieng plateau. As for the results of this study, it can be concluded that based on the evidence contained in the grave sites and remains of the Sayyids; Sheikh Karim, Sheikh Ngabdullah Selomanik, Sheikh Adam Sari, it is said that they did the indigenization of Islam in Dieng in the XVI-XVII centuries. The strategy and understanding that has been disseminated to the community is what Walisongo has done, namely a cultural approach that compromises the meeting of culture and sharia as one thing that does not need to be contradicted, and instead collaborates. Then ideologically, the ideology that was spread was the understanding of Ahlusunnah wal Jamaah which is still believed and practiced by the Muslim community in Dieng.
Statistical Analysis Approaches in Scour Depth of Bridge Piers

Published: January 2023

A local scour is the removal of bed material from around the pier of the bridge. This bed removal is considered a big problem and is of great concern for hydraulic engineers. They should find economic solutions for this problem. The exaggerated local scour around bridge piers leads to many problems for the whole bridge structure, such as stability problems that may lead to the bridge's destruction. This paper aims to verify the scour depth around different shapes of uniform bridge piers for different flow conditions than those done by previous researchers using different prediction models. Where the consistency of previous experimental investigations is verified by multiple nonlinear regression analysis (MNLR), Gene Expression Programming (GEP) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models. In the comparison of values that were measured and predicted by the four models (CFD, MNLR, ANN, and Gene), it is seen that the ANN model has the ability to predict the Ys/b values higher than other models used in relation to the measured values. This makes the ANN model superior in predicting the Ys/b value over the other used models, followed by the Gene model. In comparison, the values of the R2and RMSE for the four models that were used in this study, for the Ys/b model using the ANN had a value of 0.9978 and 0.0147, respectively, while those for the Ys/b model using the Gene model were 0.9800 and 0.0375, respectively. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-011 Full Text: PDF
Analysis of Combined Vertical and Radial Consolidation of Soil under Time-Dependent Loading
Authors: Sadiku Salawu
Published: January 2023

Fine-grained compressible soils are usually associated with strength challenges in the course of carrying structures, roadways, embankments, and other civil engineering facilities. In addition, due to their low permeabilities, compressible soils take an awfully long duration to achieve optimal consolidation, with its attendant negative effects on the facilities supported by the soils. Engineering practitioners and researchers have established the efficacy of vertical drains for accelerating the consolidation process of such soils through the shortening of horizontal flow distances, thereby stabilizing them and improving their load-bearing capacities. Application of the pre-loading surcharge provides additional drive for rapid consolidation. The case of soils carrying time-dependent loading is quite topical because it reflects reality most appropriately. However, a rigorous analysis of soils undergoing vertical and radial consolidation with a constant or time-varying surcharge is conspicuously lacking in the literature because most authors of publications in this subject area have largely based their solution procedure on the assumed decoupling of the vertical and radial flows by treating their associated pore pressures as separate. This assumption, notwithstanding the simplification it introduces into the mathematics of the problem, is not supported by physics. Therefore, the theory presented herein aims at addressing that gap in the literature. Throughout this analysis, the coupled (vertical and radial) flow, driven by a common pore water pressure, is handled as a single process. Successive applications of the integral transformations of Laplace and finite Hankel have been used to obtain an explicit expression for the image of the pore water pressure as a function of the transformation parameters. This is followed by successive inversions of the integral transforms, leading to a closed-form solution in the sense of a generalized Fourier series. The classical definition of the average degree of consolidation is easily applied in this case, unlike other methods in the literature that rely on the principle of superposition, whose applicability in this circumstance remains questionable. The validity of the present analysis has been established through logical checks and comparison with previous results in the literature. This theory has been proven to be applicable to cases of constant as well as time-varying surcharges. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-014 Full Text: PDF
Important Criteria for Swedish Construction Companies to Choose Environmentally Friendly Concrete
Authors: Bahrami Alireza , Lindqvist Moa , Berglund Lisa Lindqvist , Eriksson Bengt
Published: January 2023

Today, ordinary Portland cement-based concrete is one of the most important building materials and is widely used in new building constructions, which is an environmental problem, as cement production accounts for 5%-8% of the world's carbon dioxide emissions. Thus, the need for using a more environmentally friendly concrete (EFC) is growing. However, it is stated that the Swedish construction companies are reluctant to change and adopt new construction methods and materials. This research aims to map the important criteria for the Swedish construction companies in order to choose EFC for using in their projects. The study is carried out based on a literature study and a questionnaire survey. The questionnaire is designed considering the significant criteria of EFC derived from the literature study. The respondents from the Swedish construction companies were asked to rate these various criteria. The collected results are presented with bar graphs. The results show that the highest valued criterion by the respondents for the use of EFC in the projects is its long-term properties while the lowest one is the possibility of introducing a specific ceiling for greenhouse gas emissions of companies. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-015 Full Text: PDF
Torsional Behavior of Steel-Concrete-Steel Sandwich Beams with Welded Stirrups as Shear Connectors
Authors: Saleh Samoel M. , Majeed Fareed H. , Al-Salih Osamah , Hussain Haleem K.
Published: January 2023

The structural performance of a steel-concrete-steel sandwich beam (SCSSB) with welded stirrups to the steel skin plates as shear connections exposed to a pure torsion load was studied in this paper. Eight SCSSB specimens were fabricated and tested under pure torsion. The effects of the compressive strength of the concrete core, 26 and 35 MPa, the thickness of the top and bottom steel skin plates, 2 and 4 mm, and the degree of shear interaction, which represents the number of beam stirrups, between the steel skin plates and the concrete core are 75, 100, and 125%. The experiment beams revealed a similar mode of failure for all SCSSB specimens regarding all considered variables, which started with inclined cracks along the specimens’ side faces and ended with local separation between one of the steel skin plates (top or bottom) and the concrete core. In addition, the experiment results showed an increase in the torsional strength with the increase in the shear connection ratio and the thickness of the steel skin plate, as well as with the increase in the strength of the concrete core. However, it was observed that the torsional ductility of the tested beams is proportional directly to the steel skin plate thickness and degree of interaction and inversely with the concrete compressive strength. The results showed that the use of steel skin plates with welded stirrups as a shear connection could reduce the negative effect of increasing the compressive strength of the concrete core on the torsional ductility of SCSSB. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-01-016 Full Text: PDF
L(GBT+)ove Outside the City
Authors: Lamothe Dena
Published: January 2023

In popular media and academic literature, 2SLGBTQ+ individuals who live in rural environments are often viewed as outcasts, unable to find an intimate partner, leading to living an unfulfilling life. This idea, portrayed by media, has always felt like a trop and not a real indication of how 2SLGBTQ+ individuals who live in rural environments are actually existing. Through my research I hope to understand the real impacts of 2SLGBTQ+ individuals who live in rural environments through understanding how their environment impacts different aspects of their lives. The areas I have researched include access to healthcare and community support while also dealing with the public perceptions of the 2SLGBTQ+ community. These struggles all impact each individual’s sense of self, body image and identity for themselves and how they as individuals present themselves to the world. One’s ability for a strong presentation of self to the world plays a pivotal role, if and when an individual will engage in an intimate relationship. For my research I looked at various research articles, studies and news articles from all over the world to help create a well-rounded picture as there is not just one story when it comes to rural 2SLGBTQ+ individuals. Through my research I found that although 2SLGBTQ+ individuals do face hardship in accessing supportive healthcare and 2SLGBTQ+ youth do experience bullying in their school environments, not everything is negative. There are significant numbers of the 2SLGBTQ+ adult population who live rurally by choice.

This research is a quasi-experimental study with a post-test-only design. The class used was class X Mathematics and Natural Sciences in one of the Bengkulu City High Schools, which received molecular shape material, consisting of 1 control class and 1 experimental class. The control class is a class that uses PowerPoint media as usual with 2-dimensional image visualization. In contrast, the experimental class is a class that uses augmented reality-based learning media with 3-dimensional visualization. The instrument used is a post-test instrument referring to conceptual understanding indicators. The results were analyzed using a t-test. The results of the analysis showed that the significance level was 0.002. This result indicates that it is smaller than the significance level, or it can be concluded that there is a significant difference in the average understanding of the concept between the control class and the experimental class.

Authors: Justitiaski Baiq Urfa , Fitriyani Nurul , Bahri Syamsul
Published: January 2023

Infant mortality is death that occurs at the age of 0 to 1 year. According to the Provincial Health Office, East Lombok is the district with the largest infant mortality rate in NTB. Several factors influence infant mortality: childbirth with medical assistance, low birth weight, health facilities, health workers, and exclusive breastfeeding. These factors have a spatial influence because each region has different geographical, socio-cultural, and economic conditions. Therefore, the method that can be used is GWPR because it can model data with the response variable with a Poisson distribution and pay attention to location or spatial aspects. This study aims to determine the infant mortality model in East Lombok using Geographically Weighted Poisson Regression (GWPR) and to determine the factors that significantly influence the number of infant deaths in East Lombok. Based on the research conducted showed that low birth weight is the only factor that significantly affected infant mortality in 8 sub-districts, including Keruak, Sakra, West Sakra, East Sakra, Terara, Sukamulia, Selong, and Labuhan Haji. The model obtained gives a good estimator, with an R^2 value of 76,44%.

Air sisa budidaya udang vaname sistem semi bioflok telah digunakan untuk memelihara ikan bandeng. Luas tambak 2000 m2, ketinggian air 0,7 m diisi benih bandeng umur 18 hari sebanyak 4000 ekor tanpa pemberian pakan tambahan. Kualitas air mulai di amati saat bandeng berumur 2 bulan. Sampel air diambil setiap seminggu sekitar jam 9 pagi, dari Maret sampai April 2022. Selama penelitian suhu, kecerahan pH, oksigen terlarut, CO2 dan salinitas relatif stabil, kecuali kadar nitrat dan fosfat. Saat bandeng berumur 2 bulan kadar nitrat 0,059 mg/l dan fosfat 0,064 mg/l. Pada pengamatan berikutnya saat umur ikan 2,5 bulan kadar nitrat naik 425,4% menjadi 0,31 mg/l dan fosfat naik 479,7% menjadi 0,371 mg/l. Kenaikan ini selain diduga dari penguraian hasil feses ikan, juga adanya penambahan air sisa budidaya udang vanname, sehingga ketinggian air tambak menjadi 80 cm. Pengamatan bandeng saat umur 3 bulan, kadar nitrat menurun 42,6% menjadi 0,178 mg/l dan fosfat menurun 8,4% menjadi 0,34 mg/l. Penurunan ini diduga karena nitrat dan fosfat digunakan sebagai sumber nutrien bagi fitoplankton. Pemanfaatan nitrat tersebut terus berlangsung sehingga pada saat umur bandeng 3,5 bulan kadar nitrat makin menurun 58,4% menjadi 0,074 mg/l, tetapi kadar fosfat mengalami kenaikan 8,24% menjadi 0,368 mg/l. Kenaikan fosfat diduga dari hasil penguaraian feses ikan. Hasil pengamatan kualitas air untuk parameter suhu berkisar antara 29,4 – 31,50C, kecerahan 30,5 – 34,5 cm, pH yaitu 8, oksigen terlarut 4,5 – 5,7 mg/l, salinitas 17,2 – 19,45 ppt, kadar CO2 tidak terdeteksi 0 mg/l. Diperlukan pemantauan kualitas air secara berkala, untuk menjaga mutu air tambak.
An empirically-based practical-realistic pedagogic mathematical model for teaching and learning of an antenna theory and design course
Authors: Fasinu Vojo George , Govender Nadaraj , Kumar Pradeep
Published: January 2023

Despite the professional importance attached to the antenna theory and design course, most students and some academics still see the course as difficult and not easily explained via mathematical modelling (MM) despite some mathematical concepts integrated into the teaching and learning of an antenna theory and design. Due to this challenge, some students change their courses and opt for courses with less mathematical complexity. In view of this, this paper reports the review on the teaching and learning of an antenna theory and design using MM approach, relevant theoretical models reported by other researchers, with a comparative description of these theoretical frameworks. It also offers an empirical appraisal of a practical-realistic pedagogic mathematical model for teaching and learning an antenna theory and design course (PRPMM-TLATD) as a reliable model in the universities. In achieving this, data was gathered from four scholarly academics and 12 engineering students from a university in South Africa using qualitative approach. This finding generates the following stages as reported by the participants. And these stages include antenna validation by measurement, antenna validation by simulation, analysis of an antenna mathematically, personal conceptualization of the design work, total interpretation and validation of design problem, and problem resolution by mathematization. It also confirmed that the teaching and learning the design problem, antenna parameters modelling (mathematically), describing an antenna parameters mathematically, extra-mathematical working and prerequisite courses model were followed. The result of the study confirmed that the teaching and learning of an antenna theory and design could be classified into two domains, namely, paper-based design domain and a realistic domain as gathered from the data among engineering academics and students teaching and learning MM in a university in South Africa.
