Praktik Gadai Pohulo’o di Gorontalo dalam Perspektif Hukum Islam
Authors: Podungge Rulyjanto
Published: November 2021

Muslim communities believe that compliance with the law is not only in the field of worship but also in the field of muamalah. Therefore, people want what they practice to be legal and in accordance with Islamic teachings. One of the problems whose legal status continues to be questioned is the issue of pawning which is carried out under customary law. There have been many explanations regarding this problem by religious leaders, but their answers have not been able to satisfy the community. The answers available so far tend to conclude that the practice is not allowed, the law is haram. It is undeniable that the explanation of this in fiqh books is indeed the case because the collateral in the pawn cannot be used by the pawnee, who in this case is a creditor. A creditor may not take advantage of the pledged goods for reasons of riba (usury). However, the practice of pawning, which is carried out according to custom, has become a tradition in the community and is carried out with the pleasure of the pawnbroker and pawnee, and this tradition has become a means to get out of trouble to cover one's life. This article explains the problem of the pawn tradition in Muslim society through a sociological approach in addition to the usuliyah syar'iyah approach

Published: November 2021

Kompleksnya permasalahan dan realitas perempuan di era modern menuntut para ulama untuk menetapkan solusi hukum yang aktual dan realistis. Tulisan ini berangkat dari kenyataan bahwa produk fikih perempuan juga dipengaruhi oleh karakteristik manhaj dan metode ulama dalam menetapkan hukumnya. Melalui kajian studi literatur (riset kepustakaan) dan pendekatan Fikih-Usul Fikih, tulisan ini menemukan bahwa ada tiga karakter metodologi atau manhaj ulama dalam fikih perempuan yaitu al-tasyaddud atau al-iftirati al-tafrit wa al-tahallul, serta al-wast wa al-i'tidal. Adapun dalam menetapkan hukum fikih perempuan kontemporer, para ulama menempuh metode melalui analisis komprehensif terhadap nas-nas hukum, atensi terhadap maqasid al-syari'ah, pertimbangan realitas sosial, dan pertimbangan terhadap perbedaan psikologis dan sosial perempuan. Di Indonesia, realitas aktivitas perempuan telah merambah ke dunia politik praktis sehingga menghasilkan respon pemikiran fikih yang beragam. Di sini terlihat bahwa problematika fikih perempuan kontemporer tidak sepi dari perbedaan pendapat ulama.

Published: November 2021

The issue of shifting from sale and purchase transactions to service transactions due to the binding of collateral with a mortgage or fiduciary rights can become a transaction that is null and void. Solving legal issues related to how the concept of binding collateral needs to be seen in an ontological and philosophical scope. The binding of collateral on murabahah financing should be based on the existence of customer obligations for purchases that have not been paid off based on the Sharia Banking Law. The binding of collateral on murabahah transactions can also be carried out with mortgage rights or fiduciary guarantees based on the existence of customer obligations for purchases that have not been paid off as guided by the Mortgage Law and the Fiduciary Guarantee Law which has accommodated the binding of collateral by basing other main agreements other than the main agreement due to accounts payable.

Development and Validation of Student’s MOOC-efficacy Scale: Exploratory Factor Analysis
Authors: Ghazali Norliza , Nordin Mohamad Sahari , Tunku Ahmad Tunku Badariah
Published: November 2021

Abstract: Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), the fast developing teaching and learning platforms of global interest, are the product of higher education's expanded usage of e-learning. MOOCs have been heralded as the potential educational breakthrough for the 21st century. A positive attitude toward self-efficacy is essential for successful MOOC implementation. However, only a few studies have been conducted to ascertain a student's MOOC efficacy level, and a very limited scale for assessing a student's MOOC efficacy has been identified in the context of Malaysia. This study aims to develop and validate a student’s MOOC-efficacy scale for higher institutions. In this study, students’ MOOC-efficacy was conceived in four ways (i.e. information searching, making queries, MOOC learning, and MOOC usability). A descriptive research design with a scale was employed to collect information from 289 students enrolled in higher institutions. The Educational and Psychological Testing Standards were adapted to develop a scale to gauge students’ MOOC-efficacy. The scale's appropriate items, as well as its validity and reliability, were determined using Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA). Significant levels of validity and reliability for the developed scale were found. The scale comprised four dimensions, i.e., information searching (three items), making queries (seven items), MOOC learning (six items) and MOOC usability (seven items), amounting to a total of 23 items. This scale was then used to determine the efficacy of higher institution students in using MOOCs. The eigenvalues of the four MOOC efficacy dimensions were within the range of 1.39 to 8.49. The factor structures explained 63.9% of the total variance. The scores of reliability varied in the range of 0.822 to 0.890. This work produced a psychometrically sound scale to measure students’ MOOC efficacy. Students, educators, administrators, and other individuals may benefit from the application of the verified MOOC efficacy scale. The information generated from the scale can be utilized to determine the training needs of students, educators and MOOC developers.

Exploring Cloud Computing Readiness and Acceptance in Higher Education Institution: A PLS-SEM Approach
Authors: Md Noh Nur Hidayah , Amron Mohd Talmizie
Published: November 2021

Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has altered nearly every aspect of life, including education. Technology has replaced face-to-face teaching and learning nearly totally. This health disaster has accelerated digitization in the world of education, which was previously only available without a repulsive factor. Cloud computing technology has been widely used in education, including higher education, enabling teaching resources, educational information, notes, lectures, and academic assessments to be accessed and shared online. Yet, in celebrating the greatness of technology, are users ready to accept an explosion of information resources and access openly online through cloud-based services? Thus, this research will investigate the Higher Education Institution (HEI) users' readiness and acceptance of cloud computing. The research employs the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Technology Readiness Index (TRI) model together with Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to investigate 470 individuals from HEIs in Malaysia. Perceived Ease of Use and Perceived Usefulness are found to be positively significant in explaining why a user decides to use cloud computing. Optimism and innovativeness have found to affect the factors of technology acceptance significantly. In contrast, discomfort and insecurity do not affect technology acceptance factors, except for insecurity that negatively impacts Perceived Usefulness. This study contributes to another finding to studying technology readiness and acceptance, especially in higher education.

Examining the Influence of Academic and Non-academic Responsibilities on Academicians’ Job-related Stress in Higher Education
Authors: Awang Yunita , Mohamed Norazamina , Ahmad Suraya , Mohd Nasir Noor Emilina
Published: November 2021

Abstract:  Academicians are commonly associated with academic tasks of teaching and research. However, recent scenario reveals that academicians’ workloads are not restricted to merely academic tasks. Academicians also hold administrative positions, involved with students’ development activities, community services and professional development. Shouldering with numerous responsibilities, academicians may be stressful to prioritize the assigned tasks and meeting deadlines. This necessitates serious attention to ensure that academicians can focus on the assigned responsibilities and perform their best. Thus, this study attempts to establish a relationship between academic and non-academic responsibilities with job-related stress among academicians. Through survey method, 120 usable responses received out of 391 questionnaires distributed to academicians in a public university. Using SPSS, a preliminary analysis indicates that the respondents were moderately stressful with their job. However, multiple regressions test demonstrates that job-related stress is not influenced by academic responsibilities but marginally contributed by non-academic responsibilities. The findings give insights to the university management on academicians’ reaction to their present job tasks and useful as guidance in any efforts or policy towards academicians’ workload setting. However, this study is confined to only one public university in the East coast region of Malaysia. Thus, future research may be expanded to the public universities in the West region of Malaysia with different working environment and lifestyle.

Published: November 2021

Abstract – Nadiem Makarim, the Minister of Education and Culture, released "Merdeka Belajar" (Freedom to Learn) as his revolutionary program by the end of 2019. It aims to make significant changes in the world of education. The current study aims to demonstrate the understanding of primary school teachers' understanding of the concept and implementation of Merdeka Belajar during Covid-19. Data were obtained through surveys via Google-Forms and in-depth interviews via WhatsApp with twenty primary school teachers at private and public schools around DKI Jakarta, Bogor, and Banten. In contrast, secondary data is obtained from previous research and online news directly related to this study. They were analyzed through restatement, description, and interpretation stages. The investigation resulted that the teachers having conceptually understood the program of Merdeka Belajar well. They agreed and accepted the program to reform and improve the education quality and the changes of times. The problem lies in the practical implementation due to the limited number of teacher movers in every school unit as creators, innovators, and role models for the other teachers. Besides, the lack of supporting infrastructure for online learning and the teachers' mastery of technology also hinder the program's success. Finally, this study recommended the need to socialize with the community, hold more teacher training, increase the number and distribution of teacher movers, and improve teachers' skills in using information and communication technology in the learning process.

Undergraduates’ Perception on their English Learning Process: Preliminary Step toward “Foundations of Social Studies” CLIL-Based Material Development
Authors: Yaniafari Rahmati Putri , Rihardini Ajeng Ayu , Wiradimadja Agung
Published: November 2021

Abstract: English has emerged as the language of scientific communication (Björkman, 2011; Jenkins, 2006). Given the significance of English, in addition to ESP courses that have been incorporated in university curriculum, the CLIL method can be one of the choices for improving students' English mastery. Before implementing CLIL and creating the necessary resources, a comprehensive investigation is required to determine the ‘what' and ‘how' the content, curriculum, assessment, and evaluation will be produced (Flowerdew, 2013). Prior to developing “Fundamental of Social Studies” CLIL-based content, this research intends to analyse several aspects. It investigates: (1) the significance students place on grammar, vocabulary, and language skills in the English learning process; (2) the students' preferences in English learning activities; and (3) the language components that students improved the most. Students in the Social Studies Program were given a survey. The implication based on the findings is that future material developments are recommended to include audio-materials, pay more attention to speaking activities, and incorporate more diverse grammar activities. Moreover, the type of activities involved are suggested to include group work as it is favoured by the students; especially for speaking performance. Group speaking performance is preferred then the individual one for it lessen the anxiety.

Authors: Putri Anzari Prawinda , Pratiwi Seli Septiana
Published: November 2021

Abstract:  During the Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia, all communication activities have been carried out mostly through CMC, including online learning that students must experience. This situation brings big changes in the communication process between lecturers and students and vice versa. This paper aims to see how interpersonal communication changes in the online lecture process and what elements of interpersonal communication are lost with technology in online learning. The data collection method in this study was to conduct Focus Group Discussions on Sociology students at the Universitas Negeri Malang. 6 students were involved in the FGD with the criteria for students above the 2019 class who had experienced face-to-face and online lectures. Primary data was obtained through active observation of Sociology Department lecturers. This study indicates that many dimensions of interpersonal communication are missing in online lectures, such as the loss of empathy between students due to the absence of face-to-face communication and miss communication in online lectures, which causes interpersonal communication not to work effectively. Furthermore, Interpersonal communication cannot be established properly if the lecturer does not have high technological skills. It can then affect the spirit of student learning in online lectures.

Experiential Learning Through the Eyes of Emirati Students
Authors: Shammas Nicole
Published: November 2021

Abstract: General Studies courses are core to the whole education philosophy espoused in the United Arab Emirates. These courses provide a wider breadth of knowledge for students by fostering skills such as critical thinking, global awareness, research and communication. This paves the way for building the UAE’s knowledge base and delivering graduates who can compete globally through research and innovation. The research explores the role of experiential learning within General Studies to cultivate these key skills, and seeks to capture students’ responses to this type of learning. This is a mixed methods study that includes ethnographic data collection, uncovering the complexities of a lived classroom learning experience from the perspective of the students. Data was collected from interviews with students, written reflections and a Likert scale survey. Results suggest that Emirati female students respond favourably to experiential learning, thus countering previous findings about their preferred learning style. This study contributes significantly to a field with scant knowledge of experiential learning as a vehicle for instruction in a tertiary Emirati context.

Published: November 2021

OBJECTIVE

To compare shear-wave velocities (SWVs) with shear-wave elastography of various peripheral lymph nodes (LNs).

ANIMALS

11 healthy Beagles.

PROCEDURES

For each dog, bilateral mandibular, medial retropharyngeal, superficial cervical, axillary, superficial inguinal, and popliteal LNs were evaluated with shear-wave elastography in sagittal and transverse scanning planes. Depth of each lymph node was recorded, and intra- and interobserver reliability was determined.

RESULTS

SWVs for all LNs were significantly higher in the sagittal scanning plane, compared with those in the transverse scanning plane. The SWV of the most superficial LN, the mandibular LN, was significantly higher, compared with that for the other LNs, except for the medial retropharyngeal LN. The SWV of the deepest LN, the medial retropharyngeal LN, was as high as that for the mandibular LN. Intra- and interobserver reliability was excellent.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE

SWVs for normal peripheral LNs of Beagles may serve as a reference to compare with those for other breeds and diseased LNs. Scanning plane, LN depth, and interfering tissues between the LN and the transducer may affect SWV. Shear-wave elastography may not be operator dependent.

Published: November 2021

Biomass partitioning is one of the pivotal determinants of crop growth management, which is influenced by environmental cues. Light and CO2 are the main drivers of photosynthesis and biomass production in plants. In this study, the effects of CO2 levels: ambient 400 ppm (a[CO2]) and elevated to 1,000 ppm (e[CO2]) and different light intensities (75, 150, 300, 600 μmol·m−2·s−1 photosynthetic photon flux density – PPFD) were studied on the growth, yield, and biomass partitioning in chrysanthemum plants. The plants grown at higher light intensity had a higher dry weight (DW) of both the vegetative and floral organs. e[CO2] diminished the stimulating effect of more intensive light on the DW of vegetative organs, although it positively influenced inflorescence DW. The flowering time in plants grown at e[CO2] and light intensity of 600 μmol·m−2·s−1 occurred earlier than that of plants grown at a[CO2]. An increase in light intensity induced the allocation of biomass to inflorescence and e[CO2] enhanced the increasing effect of light on the partitioning of biomass toward the inflorescence. In both CO2 concentrations, the highest specific leaf area (SLA) was detected under the lowest light intensity, especially in plants grown at e[CO2]. In conclusion, elevated light intensity and CO2 direct the biomass toward inflorescence in chrysanthemum plants.

ДИТИНСТВО ЯК СТАН СВІДОМОСТІ
Authors: ЛІМОНЧЕНКО Віра
Published: November 2021

Мета роботи. У статті реалізований такий варіант філософії дитинства, коли дитин- ство розглядається не як вікова категорія, а як стан свідомості, як специфічно людська риса, пов’язана з особливим характером людського буття. Методологія. Така постановка мети визначає засоби побу- дови думки, насамперед спрямованої на концептуалізацію дитинства – йдеться не про вироблення нової дефініції, а про осмислення людського буття на засадах субстанційно-визначального принципу, яким приймається дитинство як місце первиного народження людського Я, місце зустрічі передсвідомого минулого і майбутнього, що стає архетипом людського життя. Наукова новизна. Запропонований поворот теми – розгляд дитинства як стану свідомості дорослої людини – нечасто потрапляє у фокус міркувань, і головний момент – йдеться не про обернену форму дитинності, якою є інфантілізм або педократія, а про дитинство як стан передсвідомої відкритості світові, внаслідок чого цей світ отримує здатність бути майбутнім. Вміння зберегти у собі дитину – це збереження здатності бачи- ти усе як вперше, у максимальній напрузі сприймання, що є запорукою творчого потенціалу у людині, яка не тільки творить новий предметний світ навколо себе, але і сама є вічно неготовою, такою, що має йти до себе, знайти себе. Отже, мірою можливостей людини може виступати дитинство – оскільки воно являє собою граничну відкритість. Дитинство у всій своїй конкретній повноті є вічно неготове, незавершене зростання, якому належить здійснитися, і тому як чиста потенційність, всеможливість збігається зі свободою. Якраз в цьому і корениться головна проблема і страждання дитинства: за своєю суттю, природою, формою воно є потенційність, здатність стати тим, що воно ще не є, і водночас за своєю наявною формою воно рабськи затиснуте як несамовитістю фізичних потягів, так і характером, вдачею, способом життя оточуючих людей. Звідси погляд на дитину, яка ще тільки має стати людиною. Дорослішання і є вивільненням того, чим здатна бути людина, з потоку емпіричних обставин, які діють, урізаючи потенційність і відкритість. Висновки. Погляд на дитинство як простір певного філософствування підкреслює значущість для людини збереження у її свідомості готовності і здатності бути відкритою світові без погорди визнання себе мірилом існуючого. Захист дорослого – це є збереження в дорослому дитинності як такої універсальної риси людського буття, суть якої у вічному становленні її самої і здатності трансцендувати наочно-предметні обставини, що заповідано людині як творчій істоті.
МІСТИКО-ІНТУЇТИВНІ ПРАКТИКИ ДЗЕН-БУДДИЗМУ

Published: November 2021

Метою дослідження є розгляд особливостей духовної сутності містико-інтуїтивних практик дзен-буддизму. Методологічні засади. Методологія дослідження основана на логічному поєднанні історичного, порівняльного, діалектичного методів наукового дослідження. Наукова новизна полягає в аналізі духовних практик дзен-буддизму як засобу самопізнання, шляху інтуїтивного пошуку єдності власного буття, що зумовлюють його поширення в сучасному світі. Автори зазна- чають, що досягнення просвітлення, «саторі», у дзен-буддизмі не вкладається в однозначне логіко- дискурсивне пояснення, для його досягнення використовується низка містико-інтуїтивних практик, спрямованих саме на інтуїтивне осягнення істинної природи речей. Серед характерних особливо- стей, на які претендує вчення дзен, можна виділити такі: отримання одкровення без священних текстів; віра невід’ємна від прагнення до переживання особистісного просвітлення; дзен-буддизм передбачає безпосередній контакт з об’єктивно-психологічною сутністю людини (що знаходиться за межею її почуттів, думок); осягнення цієї «потаємної природи» визначає шлях до «досконалості Будди». Інтуїтивне прозріння постає як знання, пов’язане з всезагальним та особистим аспектами існування. У Порожнечі як першооснові світу немає жодної різниці між народженням і смертю, об’єктом і суб’єктом. Просвітлення постає як «повне пробудження» цілісної особистості, коли людина перестає розглядати себе як річ, стає відкритою у своїх почуттях до світу. Завдання люди- ни – зрозуміти це й досягти єдності власного «Я», коли при усвідомленні своєї глибокої причетності до всього сущого зникає уявлення про існування протилежностей. Автори доходять висновку, що в дзен-буддизмі самопізнання є позаінтелектуальним процесом, який постає як повнота досвіду, що відбувається внаслідок зіткнення з внутрішнім інтуїтивним самозаглибленням задля пошуку єдності власного буття.
