Textbooks in an age of ubiquitous knowledge, competency-based education and MOOCs
Authors: Graham Clive
Published: September 2021

This paper concerns the dislocation caused by sustained global economic uncertainly

post-2008 and its impact on undergraduate university textbooks in the emerging age of

ubiquitous knowledge, competency-based higher education and massive open online

courses (MOOCs). The paper posits evidence that textbooks increase the cost of higher

education, may be ill-suited to emergent personalized delivery, are being replaced by

online open-content resource materials, become less relevant when the nexus between

time-serving and course completion is broken, are likely to be replaced by syntheses of

online materials as quality elements of instruction, and are unable to serve the

transdisciplinary nature of emerging workplace contextualised university courses. The

paper concludes that undergraduate textbooks are no longer an integral part of

university provision in an era of ubiquitous knowledge and may be an impediment to

quality education as universities slowly shift to competency-based education and

MOOCs.

Higher degree research candidates’ initial expectations in fine art
Authors: Holbrook Allyson , Simmons Beverley , Scevak Jill , Budd Janene
Published: September 2021

A range of research studies in the past decade have yielded a much fuller understanding

of the nature of higher degree research candidature, student experiences and the

changes in this population. Nonetheless candidate attrition continues to be a source of

concern and there is still much territory to explore in connection with barriers to

progress and their successful resolution. One aspect that is rarely explored is research

candidates’ initial expectations at masters and doctoral level. Drawing on interviews

with fine art masters and doctoral level candidates, this paper explores candidates’

recollections of their initial expectations of candidature in a practice-based discipline,

and any ‘mismatch’ or incongruence between their expectations and academic

requirements. We found initial expectations clustered under two main areas:

expectations about the research degree and expectations about the institutional

environment. Suggestions for supervision practice are presented from the findings.
Rethinking the Australian doctoral examination process
Authors: Kiley Margaret
Published: September 2021

This paper suggests rethinking the doctoral examination process in Australia to enable

a closer alignment with the aims of the learning programme. The doctoral examination

processes generally aim to assess the candidate’s research capability, the quality and

originality of the candidate’s contribution to knowledge, and to authenticate that the

work undertaken is in fact that of the candidate. However, based on a review of the

Australian system for examining it is clear that the process does not fully align with the

aims of the current doctorate and that modest changes could remedy this situation. The

paper concludes with some suggestions for change which might enhance the

assessment process of Australia’s highest academic award and issues which need to be

considered.
Quality and equality in British PhD assessment
Authors: Morley Louise , Leonard Diana , David Miriam
Published: September 2021

This paper asks whether doctoral assessment has escaped the regulation of

quality assurance procedures. Raising questions about the affective and

micropolitical dimensions of an oral examination conducted in private, it

explores how current concerns about quality assurance, standards, benchmarks

and performance indicators in higher education apply to the assessment of

doctoral/research degrees in Britain, and in particular to the viva voce

examination. Successful PhD completion is a key performance indicator for

universities and an important basis for the accreditation of their staff. Despite

the rise of new managerialism, a general preoccupation with calculable

standards and outcomes and an emphasis on student entitlements, transparency

of decision making and information for ‘consumers’, there still seems to be

considerable variation, and some mystification, in how doctoral assessment is

conducted and experienced. The massification of doctoral studies and the

doubling in number of institutions awarding their own doctorates, post-1992,

are both likely to increase product variety still further.

In the last decade of the twentieth century, there was a major expansion of

doctoral studies and a widening of the types of doctorate that may be undertaken

in the UK. Although attention has been given to improving supervision and

research skills training here since the late 1980s, the assessment process seems

to have escaped the scrutiny, checks and balances currently being applied to

other academic programmes.

In this paper we wish to explore if and how quality assurance, standards,

benchmarks and performance indicators should apply in particular to the viva

voce examination. We shall also consider the emotional, affective and micropolitical dimensions of an oral examination conducted in private.
Acquiring ‘doctorateness’ in the Creative Industries: an Australian perspective on professional research doctorates
Authors: Stock Cheryl
Published: September 2021

Over the last two decades, particularly in Australia and the UK, the doctoral

landscape has changed considerably with increasingly hybridised approaches to

methodologies and research strategies as well as greater choice of examinable

outputs. This paper provides an overview of doctoral practices that are emerging in

the creative industries context, from a predominantly Australian perspective, with a

focus on practice-led approaches within the Doctor of Philosophy and recent

developments in professional doctorates. The paper examines some of the diverse

theoretical principles which foreground the practitioner/researcher, methodological

approaches that incorporate tacit knowledge and reflective practice together with

qualitative strategies, blended learning delivery modes, and flexible doctoral outputs;

and how these are shaping this shifting environment towards greater research-based

industry outputs. The discussion is based around a single extended case study of the

Doctor of Creative Industries at Queensland University of Technology (QUT) as one

model of an interdisciplinary professional research doctorate.
Creative synergies: exploring the process of supervising and examining the creative writing doctoral thesis
Authors: Kroll Jeri
Published: September 2021

This paper explores the synergies between the process of supervising and examining a

creative writing doctoral thesis. The hybrid nature of the Creative Writing doctorate, in

particular, means that the student-supervisor dyad takes on increasing significance,

since it affects the likelihood of a successful examination and productive future for

postgraduates. This dyad, formed at the beginning of the doctoral journey, necessarily

becomes a triad, with examiners as fellow travellers whose feedback affects the shape

and perhaps eventual public reception of the thesis and/or creative artifact. The

synergies between their roles produce outcomes that can benefit all three, enriching

subject and pedagogical knowledge bases, fostering new research directions, enhancing

artistic and intellectual careers and improving program design and assessment practices

in the discipline. Supervisors and examiners participate in a number of communities of

practice, but also join a unique micro community established when each new

postgraduate enrols. This community facilitates the dissemination of new knowledge

which defines the Creative Writing doctorate.
‘Fail better’: doctoral examination and the creative field
Authors: Brien Donna Lee , Burr Sandra , Webb Jen
Published: September 2021

Anyone working in the creative arts is likely to have to deal with ‘failure’ at some stage.

This paper briefly outlines the rhetoric associated with the concepts of success and failure,

and then moves to how these terms and the values associated with them are applied in the

process of examination. We critique the pervasive focus on ‘positive’ results, and posit

what may be alternate ways to think about creative processes and their outcomes. Drawing

on data gathered for an Australian government funded project, ’Examination of doctoral

degrees in creative arts: process, practice and standards’, we discuss failure in the light of

current examination practices and processes in the creative arts, and from the point of view

of candidates, supervisors, examiners and research higher degree administrators. We

provide definitions for ‘failure’ in this context, and explore whether – and how – failure

can be useful in doctoral level creative arts.
Examining the music doctorate: challenges, contradictions and confluence in assessing time-based work
Authors: Harrison Scott
Published: September 2021

Time-based work presents particular challenges for the assessment of doctoral work.

The need for performance to be experienced ‘in the moment’ creates logistical issues

for institutions, assessors and, most significantly – candidates. While this process is

akin to examining an exhibition, the ephemeral nature of music, the balance of

process and product and the subjectivities of the examiners all play a role in the

eventual outcome. Drawing on cases from practice-centred work in music, this paper

seeks to illuminate examination practices. Using both live and web-based

submissions and incorporating the views of examiners, candidates and higher degree

managers, the paper reveals some of the positive and the not-so-positive experiences

of examination. The cases are located in the Australian context but have been

subjected to international scrutiny through peer assessment with partner institutions in

Europe and Scandinavia. The findings from the data provide potential templates for

future use, alongside identification of pitfalls to be avoided in the assessment of high

stakes music doctorates.
Viva la vida: viva la viva voce (live the life: live the living voice)
Authors: Melrose Andrew
Published: September 2021

Creative writing is comparatively young as a research discipline in universities, with

dedicated doctoral programmes in writing only emerging over the past decade or two.

As a consequence, there is still considerable uncertainty about the quality of

examination in the discipline. This paper is about the viva voce in the Creative Writing

PhD examination process. It addresses the procedures and practice and is accompanied

by a rationale which argues the merits of the viva voce.

The PhD by Publication is growing in popularity in the UK and Australia. This paper

focuses on the growth of the so-called ‘retrospective’ model in creative writing, and the

examination issues this raises. These include a lack of consistency across the sector in

the criteria, particularly in terms of the previously published works, and the purpose of

the exegesis and questions about equity and rigour compared with a practice-based

research degree.

Published: September 2021

E-Marketplace is a place in cyberspace where prospective buyers meet each other to conduct transactions electronically through the internet medium. Like the market in the conventional sense, namely a meeting place for sellers and buyers, in the E-Marketplace, various companies in the world also interact without being limited by the territory of space (geography) and time. Therefore, an analysis of the performance of the website is needed to ensure the performance of the Bireuen emarketplace (meukat.com) website can run effectively in the future. The role of this emarketplace is very important, therefore in building emarketplace we must pay attention to several factors, namely: performance, information, economic, control, efficiency, and service, which is better known as the PIECES method. To analyze the performance of our self-developed emarketplace, was done by PIECES method. While the testing method in the performance analysis of the website uses the GTMetrix and Google Transparency applications. The results of the PIECES questionnaire on the dimensions of Information, Economy, Efficiency, and Service. The average score for the all dimensions is moderate, it is ranging from 42.8% to 51.45% and is in line with the expectations. The GTMetric test results of the Emarketplace website, shows that the average performance grade is 66% or grade D. This means that the quality of the Emarketplace website based on the index generated by Google is still low. It should be improved to provide good quality of service for users in future. The Emarketplace are also being analyzed by the Google transparency report, the result is “no unsafe content” was found, means this website is safe to visit. There are no applications that harm the users.

Published: September 2021

The development of hand sanitizers from a combination of mangrove leaves and patchouli oil has not yet developed in the world and Indonesia, though these two natural ingredients have antibacterial activity as a substitute for alcohol. It is known that many alcohol-based hand sanitizers can cause burning, irritation, dry skin, and cannot be used on wound skin. The purpose of this study was to develop an innovative hand sanitizer in the form of a gel from a combination of mangrove leaves extract and patchouli oil from Aceh. The samples of mangroves (Avicennia) leaves and Patchouli oil were collected from the Kuala Langsa Mangrove Forest and patchouli farmers in South Aceh.  Staphylococcous aereus bacteria were obtained from the Laboratory of Universitas Sumatera Utara. This study used a   completely randomized design (CRD) with three replications for the gel formulation. The study prepared four formulations namely K (-) as control without mangrove extract and patchouli oil, F-I contained 1g mangrove extract and 10mL patchouli oil, F-II contained 5g mangrove extract and 20mL patchouli oil, and F-III contained 10g mangrove extract and 30mL patchouli oil.  Gel hand sanitizer formulations were test for antibacterial active using diffusion method against S. aereus. The data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA. The results of the gel hand sanitizer formulation showed inhibitory effect against S. aereus with the diameter zones of 12.6 mm, 21.33 mm, 19.61 mm and 25 mm for negative control, F-I, F-II, and F-III. The F-III formulation was found as the maximum formula to inhibit the growth of S. aereus.

Authors: Refiyanni Meidia , Chaira Chaira
Published: September 2021

The quality of the road depends on the pavement, drainage conditions, and materials. For this reason, it is necessary to make innovations in improving the quality of road pavement, one of which is increasing the material. There are many types of pavements, one of which is porous asphalt pavement. Porous asphalt has many cavities that is easy for water to pass but has a low stability value with high           permeability. This research will utilize Low Density Poly Ethylene (LDPE), as an additive, CPO, and Pen 60/70 in a porous asphalt mixture. The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of the porous asphalt mixture by substituting LDPE and CPO for Pen 60/70. The method used in analyzing the characteristics of the porous asphalt mixture refers to the specifications of the Australis Asphalt Pavement Association (AAPA) (2014), with parameters Camtabro Loss (CL), Asphalt Flow Down (AFD), VIM, stability and flow. The gradation used in this study is an open gradation. This research was started from determining the value of Optimum Asphalt Content (KAO), with two variations, namely Variation 1 (1% LDPE, 10% CPO, 89% pen 60/70), variation 2 (5% LDPE, 10% CPO, 85% Pens 60/70). The KAO value of variation 1 is 5.03% and the second variation is 4.75%. After obtaining the KAO value, LDPE and CPO are substituted. The test results for the porous asphalt mixture for CL values were 34.12% and 27.07%, respectively; AFD value of 0.13% and 0.12%; for the VIM value of 14.90% and 19.03%; stability value 603.24 kg and 603.19 kg; and flow values are 5.03 mm and 4.80 mm. In general, the value obtained from the test meets the required requirements. However, the durability value of the mixture did not meet the requirements, namely 60.15% and 48.22%, with the condition >90%.

This study aims to analyze the spectrum of the human voice based on the accents of several regions. This research is included in the type of experimental research. Data were collected from 4 male respondents aged 23 years as research subjects. Respondents come from Central Java, East Java, Jambi, and South Sulawesi or come from Javanese, Malay, and Bugis ethnicities. Each respondent pronounces the vowels /a/ and /e/ as well as the consonants /b/, /d/, and /g/ once in each sound under normal circumstances or does not have throat problems or other things that make the sound abnormal. Voice recording is done in a closed and quiet room without any disturbance by using a microphone connected to a laptop using the cool record edit pro application. The sound spectrum was analyzed using Praat verse 2 software, then the recording was converted to *wav format. Furthermore, the sound spectrum analysis procedure uses software to determine the shape of the spectrum, the maximum or minimum pitch frequency (F0), and the formant frequency of F1-F4 in each sample. The results showed that the response of men from South Sulawesi had the highest tone of 156 Hz in the letter /b/ and 145 Hz in the letters /d/ and /g/ respectively. while the lowest tone of voice owned by men from the Jambi area is 105 Hz, 109 Hz, and 102 Hz for each consonant and the output from F0 (pitch) to F1-F4 (formant) can change and does not describe the high pitch, meaning the formant will always high.

Authors: Opirina L , Azwanda Azwanda , Febrianto R
Published: September 2021

Concrete is the result of a mixture of cement, aggregate and water. Under certain conditions, the concrete mixture can be added with additives and admixture to get the concrete as needed. Cement is the most important material in the manufacture of conventional concrete. When cement is produced, the same amount of CO2 will also be generated as a side effect and pollute the atmosphere. Fly ash as an alternative to cement will be introduced as an alternative concrete material to reduce the use of cement in the concrete mix. In addition to the use of charcoal fly ash as a partial substitute for cement, this study also uses palm oil clinkers as a substitute for fine aggregate as much as 20%. This replacement material is an industrial waste which has the main content of silica and alumina which is similar to the main material for forming concrete. In addition, the use of these two materials also aims to reduce the exploration of the use of natural materials. This research introduces 3 kinds of concrete composition. The grouping is based on the ratio of fly ash and cement used, namely (60%:40%), (70%:30%) and (80%:20%). The test object used is a concrete cylinder with a diameter of 150 mm and a height of 300 mm. Tests were carried out at the age of 28 days of concrete. The compressive strength test showed that the best concrete was produced from the combination of the addition of 60% fly ash of coal aged 28 days, which was 4.21 MPa.

Published: September 2021

Bridges are a critical part of transport infrastructure networks for social activities and economics of human life. Dynamic analysis of bridge is very important to perform in order to ensure the ability of the bridge to withstand loads and maintain the sustainability of transport infrastructure. This paper presents a methodological framework for monitoring dynamic behavior of the bridge (e.g., natural frequencies, displacement time history) by using civil engineering micro-tremor technique and numerical modeling. The study was conducted at the Alue Raya Bridge located in Lhokseumawe City, Aceh Province, Indonesia. To capture the dynamic behavior of the bridge under traffic loading, the micro-tremor techniques, e.g., Short Period Seismograph (SPS) sensor was placed underneath the bridge at the mid span of the bridge girder. The obtained vibration data were processed using Geopsy software. A three dimensional (3D) model of the bridge was then developed by using CSI Bridge software. The modal analysis was conducted to obtain the modal natural frequencies of the bridge due to traffic loads. The natural frequency measurements using SPS were compared with the simulation results. Through analyzing the measured results, it was found that the natural frequency of the bridge is around 4,3275 Hz which is very close to those obtained from numerical modeling using CSI bridge software. The measured maximum vertical displacement of the bridge girders is below 5mm under normal traffic condition which is under the allowable serviceability limit state requirements of the bridge. The outcomes of this study could have the potential to enable maintenance and capital works decisions which are an important component of the sustainability of transport infrastructure.
Sales Forecasting by Using Exponential Smoothing Method and Trend Method to Optimize Product Sales in PT. Zamrud Bumi Indonesia During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Authors: Wineka Nirmala Virgin , Harjadi Dikdik , Awaluddin Robi
Published: September 2021

Forecasting is important for a company in achieving goals effectively and efficiently. Forecasting aims to determine the next steps to be taken based on historical data. PT. Zamrud Bumi Indonesia is one of the manufacturing companies in the management of agricultural liquid fertilizers with the trademark “Power Bumi”. The purpose of this study is to analyze the sales pattern of Power Bumi products during the covid-19 pandemic and compare the forecasting method that is able to produce the smallest error value in forecasting sales of Power Bumi products PT. Zamrud Bumi Indonesia. This study uses 2 methods, namely exponential smoothing and least square trend model. To calculate the error rate using MAD, MSE and MAPE. The results show that the exponential smoothing alpha 0.9 method has the smallest error value compared to other forecasting methods. In forecasting product sales, the MAD value is 130.329, MSE is 28251.23 and MAPE is 22.00% with a forecast of 627.628 boxes. Although the exponential smoothing a 0.9 method produces a forecast value that is relatively low than other methods. However, the comparison of products sold and forecasting results has a relatively small average difference (MSE). It can be interpreted that the exponential smoothing a 0.9 method is able to suppress the forecasting error value for the 2nd period. After getting the forecasting results, it can be concluded that the number of products sold for the 2nd covid-19 pandemic period will not differ much from the number of sales in the 1st covid-19 pandemic period. If the company applies this scientific forecasting method, then sales will be optimal so that excess or shortage of stock can be avoided and the predetermined sales target can be achieved. In addition, the costs incurred during the production process to sales will be more efficient.
Patterns of Forest Encroachment Behavior Based on Characteristics of Immigrants and Local Communities
Authors: Yurike Yurike , Yonariza Yonariza , Febriamansyah Rudi
Published: September 2021

This study aims to analyze the comparison of the behavioral characteristics of forest encroachers between migrants and local communities. The research method uses descriptive analysis. Sampling using the snowball sampling method. The results showed that the behavior of forest encroachment was formed based on the number of respondents from the most, namely the behavior of sustainable, mixed and unsustainable use. However, when viewed based on land area, it turns out to be inversely proportional to where the area of rubber plantations is at least 822 ha, while the area of oil palm plantations reaches 1203 ha. In addition, it should be noted that the highest land area is found in a mixed pattern. This means that local people have started to look at oil palm plantations for cultivation. Overall, based on the age that dominates the forest encroachers, the range is 31-50 years. The education of migrants is higher than that of local communities, but the pattern of encroachment of local communities is more sustainable when compared to migrants. The number of family members of immigrants is mostly in the medium category, while the number of family members of local communities is mostly in the small category. In addition, squatters whose main occupation is farmers tend to be more sustainable when compared to other occupations. Efforts to resolve the problem of forest encroachment in the Dharmasraya PFMU area can be resolved through sustainable community empowerment activities, improving the handling of encroachers, and increasing the effectiveness of PFMU management.

Published: September 2021

It has been tried to do document analysis together with content analysis about some terms in the works written between 1949 and 1982, which is assumed to be the first period of the psychology of religion. The terms researched are “şuur (consciousness)” and its derivatives in Ottoman, and “consciousness”, “subconscious”, “unconscious” terms which is the modern usage of the term “şuur” and “adolescent, puberty” terms of Western origin which correspond to the meanings of “ergen ve argenlik”. The frequency of the use of these terms in the books was determined and it was examined whether there was a change in time, and the scientific language in using the terms of the psychology of religion was tried to be understood in line with the qualitative method. As a result, the psychology of religion changes some of these terms over time, while others still use them. By examining whether the purposes and bibliographies of the early psychology books were similar or different, it was understood that these terms used in the books of the early psychology of religion kept pace with the language and psychology science language of that period and their changes over time. In addition, it is understood that the works written by theology-based religious psychologists do not only serve the science of psychology of religion, but also they have an individual, educational, political and social goals. Keywords: Psychology of Religion Books, Consciousness (Şuur), Ottoman Compositions, Terms of Western Origin, Document and Content Analysis.
