Authors: Fadila Rahmawati  , Naura Nazhifah Suryana
Published: September 2024

In an increasingly competitive and dynamic business era, companies are faced with increasing pressure to achieve success. To achieve this goal, operational efficiency, effectiveness and consistency are key. Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) are present as an important instrument in guiding companies towards this achievement. SOPs are written guidelines that detail the steps and procedures that employees must follow in carrying out their daily tasks. A good SOP implementation helps companies ensure that every step taken by employees is in accordance with the set standards, reduces the possibility of errors, and improves the quality of the final result. However, awareness of the importance of SOPs is still uneven among companies, and many have difficulty in implementing them effectively. SOPs play a crucial role in improving operational efficiency, reducing the risk of errors, and ensuring compliance with regulations and industry standards. By providing clear guidance to employees, SOPs help in minimizing confusion, speeding up workflow, and increasing productivity. In addition, SOPs also help in maintaining consistent product quality and ensuring compliance with production standards. The importance of operational consistency cannot be overlooked either, as consistency creates customer trust, improves efficiency, and creates a stable work culture. Effective implementation and management of SOPs are key in ensuring operational success. The implementation process begins with the identification of business processes that require SOPs, development of clear SOPs, employee training, and continuous monitoring and evaluation of SOP compliance and effectiveness. In the manufacturing industry, SOPs are essential in maintaining product quality, occupational safety and health, and supply chain management. SOP helps in maintaining consistent product quality, creating a safe and healthy work environment, and optimizing material flow, inventory, and product distribution. Overall, the implementation of clear and well-defined SOP in various aspects of operations is key to ensuring the sustainability and success of the company. By implementing SOP well, companies can improve operational efficiency, maintain product quality, minimize the risk of errors, and ensure compliance with industry regulations and standards, enabling them to remain competitive in an increasingly complex market.

Something Else—the Evolution of Faith-Based Opposition to Teaching Evolution in America’s Public Schools
Authors: Cross Malcolm L.
Published: September 2024

In 1925 John Thomas Scopes, a high school football coach and substitute teacher in Dayton, Tennessee, was put on trial for teaching Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution in a high school biology class, in violation of state law. One of the prosecutors was none other than William Jennings Bryan, former Secretary of State in the Woodrow Wilson administration, three-time Democratic Party presidential nominee, and a leading Christian lay evangelist. Scopes’s chief defense lawyer was the most eminent defense attorney of the day, Clarence Darrow. The celebrity status of the two main legal protagonists guaranteed the trial’s sensational press coverage. At the conclusion of the trial Scopes, who had initially pleaded not guilty, switched his plea to guilty to guarantee that the case would be appealed, and the trial passed into American history and folklore.

Authors: Noor Sonia , Adnan Muhammad , Rehman Laila , Shafiq Abubakar
Published: September 2024

This study investigates the impact of different leadership styles—transformational, transactional, and laissez-faire—on teacher self-efficacy and professional development. Employing a quantitative cross-sectional survey design, the research analyzes data from 300 primary and secondary school teachers, gathered through structured questionnaires including the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ), Teacher Sense of Efficacy Scale (TSES), and Professional Development Engagement Scale (PDES). The results indicate that transformational leadership significantly enhances teacher self-efficacy (β = 0.40, p < 0.01) and supports professional development (β = 0.35, p < 0.05), while transactional leadership shows minimal impact on these outcomes. Furthermore, teacher self-efficacy mediates the relationship between transformational leadership and professional development (indirect effect = 0.30, p < 0.01). Moderation analysis reveals that years of teaching experience moderates the effect of transformational leadership on self-efficacy, with a more pronounced impact observed for teachers with 1-5 years of experience (β = 0.35, p < 0.05). The study underscores the importance of transformational leadership in fostering teacher growth and suggests that leadership training programs should emphasize this style to maximize teacher development and efficacy.

Exploring the Robustness of Ratio Estimators under Normal and Non-Normal Response: A Monte Carlo Markov-Chain Approach
Authors: Mashkoor Zulaikha , Bashir Samia , Tariq Saadia
Published: September 2024

An estimator is considered effective when it meets key inferential properties, such as unbiasedness, efficiency, consistency, and sufficiency. This research presents a simulation study on different ratio estimators using likelihood-based Markov-Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) or nested sampling with both normal and non-normal response variables. Ratio estimators are essential in statistical inference, valued for their unbiasedness, efficiency, consistency, and sufficiency. However, their performance can be compromised when the underlying distributional assumptions are violated. Despite their theoretical advantages, ratio estimators' effectiveness can be significantly impacted when the underlying distributional assumptions such as normality are violated. This issue is particularly relevant in real-world applications where data often deviate from the ideal normal distribution, displaying characteristics like skewness, heavy tails, or outliers. This research aims to address this issue by evaluating various ratio estimators through a comprehensive simulation study. The study compares the performance of these estimators under both normal and non-normal conditions, using key metrics such as bias, mean squared error (MSE), and variance of ranks to determine how well these estimators maintain their desirable properties in the face of non-normality. By systematically evaluating these metrics, the research provides valuable insights into which ratio estimators are most reliable when the normality assumption is not met, offering practical guidance for statisticians and researchers working with real-world data that frequently deviates from idealized conditions.

Utilizing a qualitative approach, the research draws from semi-structured interviews, observations, and case studies of 200 participants, including children, parents, and educators, to investigate the roles of phonological awareness, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics in language acquisition. The study is grounded in theoretical frameworks such as Vygotsky’s Sociocultural Theory, Bruner’s Interactionist Theory, and Piaget’s Cognitive Developmental Theory, which provide insights into the interaction of social, cognitive, and environmental factors. The research findings emphasize the importance of structured educational activities, a language-rich environment, and positive social interactions in fostering language development. The study reveals that children who engage in targeted phonological activities, such as rhyming games and sound manipulation tasks, exhibit stronger phonological skills, which are critical for early literacy. It also highlights how syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic skills develop through meaningful interactions with caregivers, peers, and teachers. Additionally, the research underscores the significant role of environmental factors, such as verbal interactions at home and interactive teaching methods in the classroom, in supporting language development. This study addresses gaps in the literature by integrating cognitive mechanisms with social interactions and examining the impact of contemporary contexts, including digital media, on language acquisition. The findings offer practical recommendations for educators and parents, emphasizing the need to create supportive language environments and foster interactive learning experiences. The research contributes to a deeper understanding of the interplay between cognitive processes and environmental influences in language acquisition, providing valuable insights for improving educational practices and supporting children’s linguistic development.

Background: According to 2020 data from the Central Statistics Agency, there are approximately 30.83 million early childhood children, with 29.28% of them being preschool-aged (5-6 years old). At the preschool stage, children's personal-social development is influenced by various factors, including communication, the surrounding environment, health status, and peer interactions. A friendly/effective communication model between a mother and her child plays a crucial role in creating the home as the child's first/primary social environment. Effective communication can help improve children's personal-social skills, which are essential for healthy social interactions outside the home. This study aims to explore the correlation between mothers' communication skills and the personal-social development of preschool children at TK Taruna Karya, Bontobahari District. Method: This study employs a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. The study population consists of mothers of 80 students from TK Taruna Karya, Bontobahari District. The sampling technique used is total/consecutive sampling, where all mothers of students in this population are included as samples. Data were collected using a questionnaire designed to evaluate mothers' communication skills and the personal-social development of their children. The data were then analyzed using SPSS 16 with a chi-square test and an alternative Fisher’s Exact Test to determine if there was a significant relationship between the studied variables. Findings: The analysis results showed a ρ-value of 0.000 (ρ<α=0.05), indicating a significant relationship between mothers' communication skills and the personal-social development of preschool children at TK Taruna Karya. Conclusion: This study concludes that there is a significant relationship between mothers' communication skills and the personal-social development of preschool children at TK Taruna Karya, Bontobahari District. Improved mothers' communication skills contribute positively to the personal-social development of a child.
