THE CONTENT ANALYSIS OF CULTURAL VALUES IN READING TEXT IN ENGLISH TEXTBOOK AT THE EIGHTH GRADE AT SMP NEGERI 1 GUNUNGSITOLI

Cultural values are the basis of thinking and views of a community group that has been studied and selected so that it is considered good, therefore cultural values based learning is very important for the easy generation of a nation. In Indonesia, cultural values in education are included in the independent curriculum and are referred to as the Pancasila student profile. These values must be applied in learning including in learning materials as a form of strengthening the cultural values of the nation's children in the midst of global progress. Given the importance of this, this study aims to analyze cultural values in reading texts contained in English textbooks at UPTD SMP Negeri 1 Gunungsitoli. The main purpose of this study is to analyze and describe the cultural values in the reading text, how the author implements the meaning in the sentence and whether the reading text in the book have met the purpose of the curriculum. This research used a qualitative approach and content analysis technique. The data analysis technique is based on the theory namely familiarizing and organizing, coding and reduction and interpreting and representing. Data collection was based on using check table instruments and document analysis. Data were collected through analysis of reading texts in the English for Nusantara book at UPTD SMP Negeri 1 Gunungsitoli. Then the data collected was processed qualitatively to analyze the patterns and meanings by the cultural values in the Pancasila student profile. The results showed that five dimensions were successfully adapted in the reading text, namely the dimension of faith, ear o almighty God and noble morals, the second dimension of global diversity, the third dimension of cooperation, the fourth dimension of independence and the fifth dimension of creativity. The only dimension that was not found was the critical reasoning dimension. The next finding is the meaning integration technique conveyed in the text sentences based on the results of the analysis, the researcher found two types of meaning adaptation in the sentences in the text, namely explicit and implicit. Between the two, the explicit adaptation technique is the most widely used by book authors while implicit is used the least. Based on these two findings, the researcher concluded that the author still needs to pay attention to embedding the value of the Pancasila student profile into the student reading text.

Can Conversational Thinking serve as a suitable pedagogical approach for philosophy education in African schools?

Abstract This article investigates whether Conversational Thinking can suitably serve as a pedagogical approach for philosophy education in African schools (primary and secondary levels). We argue that there is a need to introduce and teach philosophy in schools in Africa. Additionally, we argue that it would be apropos to adopt a decolonial approach in developing such curricula, which, amongst others, could accommodate African approaches to philosophy. We contend that African homegrown frameworks, such as Conversational Thinking, can serve as appropriate decolonial strategies for philosophy education in parts of Africa. Our reason is that the proposed approach can train the emerging young generations in Africa, not only to be critical, creative, and innovative, but also to view reality from African epistemic perspectives. This stems from the fact that Conversational Thinking is one strategy amongst others that can promote African culture-inspired approaches to knowledge that combine with basic thinking skills to offer truly African forms of epistemic liberation.

Sustainable Whole System Human Resource Development 7.0

The problem of dismantling development that has often occurred so far is that a complete and sustainable system has not yet been found. A comprehensive construction of thinking is needed. The resource system developed so far is inadequate because it only consists of two components, namely Natural Resources and Human Resources (HR). The 'one' component that is more important has not been widely discussed, namely God's Resources (SDT). The Purpose of development is to build the whole person, physically and mentally, body and soul, world and hereafter. The relationship pattern between the two is Duality, which can be distinguished but cannot be separated. Three components constitute an inseparable whole system. All three have a synergistic relationship, naturalist-humanist-religious. Ameans is a path (sirot/toriq/sabil) in the form of a device or instrument that becomes an intermediary medium (wasilah) to achieve the desired result. Social media is growing so rapidly today. The more sophisticated the media, the faster the process and the more precise the target. The seven-step system that starts from point zero (7.0) upfront is a media model for full and sustainable human development. This pattern is worth developing. The basis of thinking is clear, sequential, coherent intact, religiously scientific, and paradigmatic. Scientific because it is based on empirical logic (natural), religious because it is based on the word of God (Ilahiyah), and paradigmatic because it has a humane synergistic mindset (insaniyah).

Legal Analysis of Abortion and Menstrual Regulation from an Islamic and Positive Law Perspective

This research presents an in-depth analysis of abortion law and menstrual regulation from the perspective of Islam and positive law, as well as integrating the views of ulama. A normative approach is used to explore Islamic teachings regarding the right to life of the fetus, women's rights, and moral norms relating to abortion and menstrual regulation.

Kajian Teologis Pengkhotbah 11: 9-10 Berkaitan dengan Prinsip You Only Live Once (YOLO) pada Generasi Muda

Principles can be defined as principles, truths that become the basis for thinking, acting, and behaving. Today's young generation also has principles that they hold as a reference in life, one of which is the principle of YOLO which can be defined differently from one another. The problem is that the different understanding of the YOLO principle creates contradictions so that two people with the same principle can have very contradictory ways and achievements in life between the positive and negative sides. Misperceptions in understanding the YOLO principle can affect the moral depravity, mindset, and lifestyle of the younger generation. Therefore, by using a qualitative method with a literal study approach, the researcher will conduct research to find how the YOLO life principle is theologically linked to the book of Ecclesiastes 11: 9-10. At the end of the research, it is found that the YOLO life principle does not contradict the truth of God's word if it is accompanied by accountability to God.

A Cognitive Topological Analysis of Metonymy Translation

In the view of cognitive linguistics influenced by embodied philosophy, metonymy is defined as a fundamental cognitive mechanism, and translation is a cognitive activity. Conceptual metonymy exists in the entire process of cross-language transformation, and is the basic thinking mechanism to understand language metonymies. Looking at metonymy translation from the perspective of cognitive topology enlarges the interdisciplinary research vision of cognitive linguistics theory. It reveals that language also has features of topological equivalence and topological connectivity. Through the three main topological relations which are topological adjacency, topological association and topological inclusion, the connection between different parts of an Idealized Cognitive Model (ICM) and the referential relationships between a whole ICM and its parts can be clearly interpreted. These help us recognize the translator's cognitive operations in metonymy translation.

SEKOLAH DAN PEMBENTUKAN KARAKTER MORAL

The educational process always takes place in a certain environment, both environments related to space and time. The environment in relation to education is everything that is outside the child in this universe. Educators are part of the environment too, but because the nature of their influence is different from the influence exerted by other environments, educators are separated from the environment. Formation of valuable educationCharacter is defined as the embodiment of character, character, morals inherent in a person's personality which is formed from the results of internalization which is useful as a basis for thinking and behaving. Nuances of character or what is better known as personality emerge and become ingrained in the soul of every human being. Of course, everyone basically has good character and the environment influences it. Character includes all behavior, thought patterns and ways of looking at a person in determining an attitude which includes beliefs, morals and habits. Character is defined as the embodiment of character, character, morals inherent in a person's personality which is formed from the results of internalization which is useful as a basis for good thinking, behavior and morals. Next, the author explains a little about the methodology that the author uses in this paper, namely Research or scientific methods are procedures or steps in obtaining scientific knowledge or knowledge. So research methods are a systematic way to organize knowledge. Meanwhile, research techniques are ways to carry out research methods. Research methods usually refer to forms of research. In this writing, the author uses the Descriptive Method (describing) technique, namely the method used to look for elements, characteristics, properties of a phenomenon.

High School Students' Combinatorial Thinking in Solving Combinatoric Problems Based on Mathematical Ability

The purpose of this research is to describe the combinatorial thinking of high school students in solving combinatoric problems based on mathematical ability. Combinatorial thinking is a basic thinking ability that must be continuously developed towards critical thinking abilities and skills, so as to build one's knowledge or arguments and experiences. This research is a descriptive study using a qualitative approach. The research subjects consisted of three 16-year-old students who had studied probability material for class X and had high, medium, and low mathematical abilities. The data in this study were obtained through combinatoric problem assignments and task-based interviews. The data obtained will be analyzed by reducing data, presenting data, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study show that: (a) high-ability students' combinatorial thinking starts from Formulas/Expressions → Counting Processes → Sets of Outcomes → Expressions → Counting Processes → Sets of Outcomes → Counting Processes → Sets of Outcomes which fulfills all indicators of the level of combinatorial thinking and using two types of verification strategies. (b) medium-ability students' combinatorial thinking starts from Expressions → Sets of Outcomes → Formulas → Counting Processes → Sets of Outcomes → Counting Processes → Sets of Outcomes which fulfills all indicators of the level of combinatorial thinking and uses one type of verification strategy. (c) low-ability students' combinatorial thinking starts from Expressions → Sets of Outcomes → Counting Processes → Sets of Outcomes in which some indicators of the level of combinatorial thinking are met and do not use verification strategies.

NAHDLATUL ULAMA AND THE TRILOGY OF BROTHERHOOD

Digital technology’s advances are not fully profitable for mankind, but have led to the phenomenon of destructive social change which has changed the mindset and behavior of mankind throughout the world in personal, national and state life. This requires a solution which is a common basic principle in interacting with each other in the digital era. This research looks at the historical role of Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) in responding to all social changes that have occurred in realizing peace in the world and reimplementing the spirit of the trilogy of brotherhood (ukhuwah islamiyyah, ukhuwah wathaniyyah, and ukhuwah basyariyyah/insaniyyah) initiated by KH. Ahmad Shiddiq in digital life. This research was conducted by using a literature study approach in gathering data and information, then analyzed and concluded. The results of the study show that there is NU's strong determination and commitment to maintain the world peace through its religious leaders, and the relevance of implementing the ukhuwah trilogy as a basis for thinking, acting and behaving in interactive relationships in the digital era to create world peace.

Critical Discourse Analysis of Celebrant Reporting in Online Media the Fairclough and Teun A Van Djik Approach Model

The mass media is a tool for conveying information, thoughts and ideas to a wide audience. The information conveyed varied, including news about the lives of celebrities in Indonesia. Through critical discourse analysis, it is possible to find findings about ideology contained in a report in various existing media. The purpose of this study was to find out critical discourse analysis of the news about Dara Arafah's migration published by seven online media, namely okezone.com, suara.com, hipwee.com, idmtimes.com, fimela.com, tribunnews.com, and Celebrities.id. Qualitative methods are used as a basis for thinking and a critical paradigm is used as the point of view of this research. The theory used in this study is a three-dimensional model from Norman Fairclough, namely the microstructural, mesostructural, and macrostructural. The results of this study indicate that there are differences in the content of celebrity reporting in seven online media; okezone.com, suara.com, hipwee.com, idmtimes.com, fimela.com, tribunnews.com, and Celebrities.id. Each media presents the same news topic with different framing according to the media's motivation and idealism. The results of the analysis of Teun A Van Djik's theory are Macro Structure (Themes/topics). The themes or topics in the seven reports are the migration of Dara Arafah, a beautiful celebgram who was originally famous for not covering her genitals. Even so, each news item has a different sub-theme or category. Superstructure (Schematic), Based on the scheme, each report begins with a title as a summary. The lead section describes the subject that is the reference and leads the reader to the main discourse. Micro Structure (Semantics: Setting, Detail, Purpose, Presupposition) In the seven news stories, all elements of the micro structure are found in the form of Setting, Detail, Purpose, and Presupposition. Even though they have almost the same background, namely the relation to the news about Dara Arafah's migration, each news story has its own picture regarding the background of each news. Likewise, the details, intentions, and presuppositions in each news story will vary. but each news has its own description of the background in each news. Likewise, the details, intentions, and presuppositions in each news story will vary. but each news has its own description of the background in each news. Likewise, the details, intentions, and presuppositions in each news story will vary.

The Politics of Legal Theory Revisisted

Most legal positivists today hold that legal positivism is a morally neutral and purely descriptive account of the nature of law. This article considers this claim by examining Brian Leiter’s intriguing claim to the contrary. While I welcome examining the political presuppositions of jurisprudential theories, I show that the association of legal positivism with radicalism is not true. Examining the works of prominent legal positivists, I show that there is no basis for thinking of any of them as a political radical. I also show that many legal positivists were politically conservative. Beyond the historical question, I also argue that there is no basis for the claim that legal positivism is necessary for radical political action. On the contrary, I show that many radical political movements aligned with natural law theory and offer a possible explanation for this phenomenon. The latter point serves as the basis for an alternative way of explaining the political component of legal theory. I propose that we stop thinking of competing theories of law as descriptive or conceptual claims about the nature of law and think of them instead of grounded in different political ideas of legitimate authority.

Seeing inferences: brain dynamics and oculomotor signatures of non-verbal deduction

We often express our thoughts through words, but thinking goes well beyond language. Here we focus on an elementary but basic thinking process, disjunction elimination, elicited by elementary visual scenes deprived of linguistic content, describing its neural and oculomotor correlates. We track two main components of a nonverbal deductive process: the construction of a logical representation (A or B), and its simplification by deduction (not A, therefore B). We identify the network active in the two phases and show that in the latter, but not in the former, it overlaps with areas known to respond to verbal logical reasoning. Oculomotor markers consistently differentiate logical processing induced by the construction of a representation, its simplification by deductive inference, and its maintenance when inferences cannot be drawn. Our results reveal how integrative logical processes incorporate novel experience in the flow of thoughts induced by visual scenes.

A Correction to Dillard’s Reading of Geach’s Temporality Argument for Non-Materialism

In his article “What Do We Think With?” Peter Geach develops an argument for the non-materiality of thinking. Given that basic thinking activity is not clockable in physical time, whereas basic material or bodily activity is so clockable, it follows that basic thinking activity is non-material. Peter Dillard’s attack on this temporality proof takes “thoughts” in the proof to refer to non-occurrent states. The present note shows this reading to be mistaken and so rectifies a misunderstanding of Geach’s argument. It takes no stand on the question of whether the argument succeeds.

Discussion on the grounded theoretical thinking paradigm of sports data

Sports data is the inevitable product of the digital era, and also the inevitable product of sports sociological attributes. Of course, sports data itself is a complex system with discrete characteristics. Under the situation of discrete multi-level data distribution, the matrix sports data is a practical requirement for further analysis and discussion of the modal development of sports education and teaching. This paper, starting from the grounded theoretical research method, attempts to explore the natural attribute of the analysis of discrete sports data, social attribute and the feasibility of educational mode thinking paradigm, and provides the feasibility of the basic thinking logic paradigm for practical sports data analysis.

Интеллектуальное воспитание в процессе подготовки агроинженеров

Intellectual education is an activity aimed at personal development, including such intellectual qualities as competence, creativity, a unique mindset, self-regulation, etc. Intellectual education is an integral part of the education process. The tasks of intellectual education are determined based on students’ intelligence, the level of their compliance with the requirements of professional activity. The authors conducted an empirical study of the peculiarities of mental experience of agricultural engineering students to assess the development of operational characteristics of thinking, determine the relationship between the parameters of intelligence and the level of self-regulation, the correlation of empirical data with the criteria of intellectual education. The study involved 97 students of the Institute of Mechanics and Power Engineering named after V.P. Goryachkin of Russian State Agrarian University - Moscow Timiryazev Agricultural Academy. The results of the empirical study demonstrated a direct relationship between the levels of development of thinking operations and components of volitional regulation of activity. The peculiarity of intellectual development of future agricultural engineers is insufficient formation of a number of intellectual skills, which hinders the formation of intellectual qualities of a professional. To ensure effective and successful engineering activity of graduates (training area 35.03.06 Agroengineering), it is necessary to expand students’ outlook, enrich general mental experience and form a set of professional knowledge, as well as train basic thinking operations.

Problematika Puasa Arafah dan Tarwiyah

This paper examines the fasting of arafah and tarwiyah, both problematic in terms of arguments and the determination of the day, which often occurs every year. Through the study of Library Research which refers to the opinions of ulama. This study concludes that fasting arafah and tarwiyah are worship practices that have sunnah values, according to the arguments presented. As for the polemic of determining the day, it is divided into two groups. First: consider that arafah is a sign for the time when the haji “wukuf” in Arafah. And second: assume that arafah is a date (9 Zulhijjah). Both have their own basis of thinking, but the author as a researcher chooses the second opinion.
