The rapid advancement of technology forces every individual to face increasingly complex challenges. This also has an impact on the world of education, where the ability of learners is developed along with the times. This study aims to determine whether there is an influence and difference in student learning interest using a project-based learning model (PJBL) with the help of interactive learning videos in video editing subjects. The research method used is a pseudo-experimental design with a quantitative approach, and data collection is done through a questionnaire given to 66 grade X students at SMK Darus Syifa in Cilegon city. The results showed that the application of the project-based learning model influenced student interest in learning, and there were differences in the increase in the average percentage of questionnaire scores, where the control class had an average score of 53.26% while the experimental class reached 60.69%. This research is expected to be a learning model in basic video editing subjects and provide benefits for teachers, students, and future researchers.

Model of Policy Network in Advocacy for the Formulation of Qanun Draft on Protection and Fulfillment of the Rights of People with Disabilities

This study aims to analyze the interaction and interdependence of policy networks, identify inhibiting and supporting factors, and formulate an effective policy network model in the formulation of the Qanun for the protection and fulfillment of the rights of persons with disabilities in North Aceh Regency. A qualitative approach was used in this study, with data collection methods including in-depth interviews, focus group discussions (FGD), observations, and document studies.The results of the study indicate that the interaction and interdependence among actors in the policy network in North Aceh Regency are still not optimal. The involved actors often work separately without adequate coordination, and differences in interests and priorities hinder the achievement of common goals. The main inhibiting factors include a lack of resources, differences in interests among actors, and low public awareness of the rights of persons with disabilities. On the other hand, supporting factors include the commitment of the local government, support from NGOs, and initiatives from the community of persons with disabilities.An effective policy network model includes enhancing coordination among actors, establishing regular communication forums, strengthening the capacity of involved actors, and active participation from the community of persons with disabilities. By implementing this model, it is expected that the formulation of the Qanun for the protection and fulfillment of the rights of persons with disabilities in North Aceh Regency can proceed more effectively and inclusively.

Negotiating just transitions: power and interest dynamics in insurgent sustainability coalitions

ABSTRACT Politics and power are increasingly central to the study of sustainability transitions, including just transitions. One line of research differentiates between incumbent coalitions that resist and insurgent coalitions that promote these transitions. More recently, there has been attention on the politics and power within these coalitions and the implications of who participates and how for the kinds of policy preferences that emerge. Here, we focus on how insurgent coalitions of relatively marginalized social forces negotiate differences in interests and power. We do so by comparing insurgent just transition coalitions in two US states, Washington State and Colorado. Our study also highlights the variability amongst actors within categories, whether labour or environmental and community justice, thus challenging their homogenization implied in the ‘jobs vs environment’ and green and blue framings. We believe that our research contributes to the politicization of sustainability transition research, including just transitions.

Female Phalangium opilio use fellatio to compensate sexual avoidance

Sexual conflict arises from differences in reproductive interests between the sexes. We allowed the female harvestman Phalangium opilio to sequentially mate with two different males to examine female sexual receptivity in this species. Virgin females were more sexually receptive than non-virgins. Males exhibited a high interest in repeated copulations with the same female, often engaging in aggressive behaviours such as biting and reversed sexual cannibalism. Fellatio, a behaviour in which females lick the male’s penis, was observed in 44% of trials and was associated with female unwillingness to mate and shorter copulation duration. Fellatio was repeatable, suggesting that it is influenced by individual characteristics or underlying physiological factors. Female lifespan was negatively correlated with the total number of eggs produced, suggesting a trade-off between reproduction and longevity. These findings provide evidence of the appearance of fellatio, a female mating strategy that evolved as compensation of avoiding unwanted sexual intercourse.

Literatur Review Tentang Manajemen Konflik : Definisi, Tujuan, Sumber, dan Model Pengelolaan Konflik

This article aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of conflict management through a review of the literature related to definitions, objectives, sources, and models of conflict management. Conflict in organizations is unavoidable and can have positive or negative impacts depending on how the conflict is managed. This research uses the literature study method to analyze various conflict management concepts that have been put forward by experts. The results of the study show that conflict management aims to minimize the negative impact of conflict and maximize positive outcomes through fair and constructive resolution. Sources of conflict in organizations can come from differences in interests, and differences in values and perceptions between individuals or groups. Various conflict management models such as collaboration, transformational, and mediation are identified as approaches that can be applied in different situations to achieve effective resolution. With a deeper understanding of conflict management, organizations can be better equipped to manage internal tensions and improve productivity and working relationships among members.

Students’ perspectives on climate change—unveiling gender–interest associations in climate change beliefs

Climate change is one of humanity’s key problems. Younger generations’ beliefs about and perceptions of climate change are thus of particular importance, as these generations have to tackle the problem in the present and will have to do so even more in the future. Against this background, 4627 high school students in the federal state of Bavaria in Germany were surveyed in a quantitative questionnaire-based study. The analysis shows high values and gender differences for the four general climate change beliefs examined: (1) general perception of climate change as a problem, (2) possible solutions to the problem, (3) contributions to climate protection, and (4) effects on one’s own home. However, mediation analyses suggest that differences are more complex and are to some extent connected to gender differences in interest in climate change.

Peran Guru Dalam Meningkatkan Minat Baca Peserta Didik Melalui Program Literasi Baca Di Kelas Va SD Muhammadiyah Pahandut Palangka Raya

Reading plays an important role in the development of critical thinking skill, analytical ability, and creativity. Therefore, reading interest must be cultivated from an early age so that it becomes a good habit in daily life. In fostering reading interest, the role of teachers is very crucial. Teachers must be able to create literacy programs that are interesting and in accordance with the needs of students so that their interest in reading can be increased. This study aims to determine the role of teachers in increasing students' interest in reading through reading literacy program in the elementary school level. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach. The subjects of this study are class V-A teachers and class V-A students at SD Muhammadiyah Pahandut Palangka Raya. The data in this study was collected through three techniques, namely observation, interviews, and documentation. Meanwhile, data analysis was carried out in three stages, namely data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results of the study show that there are several factors that affect students' interest in reading, both supporting and inhibiting factors. Supporting factors include adequate facilities and infrastructure, attractive literacy programs, and support from teachers and schools. Inhibiting factors include low interest in reading, lack of support from family, and interference from technology. Although the literacy program has been well implemented, there are still several challenges faced, such as differences in interest and reading ability among students, limited time owned by teachers, and limited reading materials available at school.

Multidisciplinary teaching with an active video game: the effect on learning in mathematics and physical education

ABSTRACT Practising active video games (AVGs) requires performing motor and cognitive tasks, which might foster success in physical education and other school subjects but remains poorly investigated. This study examined the learning effects of six lessons using AVGs with physical education and mathematics content. Overall, 216 school-students composed an experimental group (n = 99) and a control group (n = 107). Both attended six lessons, each on using a Cartesian coordinate system and ball-throwing accurately, with AVGs in the experimental group only. Learning was assessed at Lessons 1 and 6, situational interest and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) at Lessons 3 and 5. MANOVAs showed no between-group differences in situational interest and higher MVPA for the control group at Lesson 3 only. Statistical analysis showed higher learning scores (mathematics and physical education) for the experimental group at Lesson 6, suggesting possible interest in AVGs during multidisciplinary sequences connecting physical education and mathematics.

Gender Differences in Vocational Interests Across 57 Countries: A Test of the Interest–Gender-Equality Paradox

Postmaterialist theory suggests that gender differences in vocational interests should be larger in more egalitarian countries, reflecting a counter-intuitive pattern called the “Gender-Equality Paradox.” By contrast, social role theory implies that gender differences in vocational interests should be smaller in more egalitarian countries as gender roles converge. Using multilevel analyses on data from 57 countries ( N = 109,460), we investigate the relationship of country-level gender equality (measured by the Global Gender Gap Index) to gender differences in RIASEC (Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, and Conventional) vocational interests. Results reveal patterns that differ by interest dimensions. In more egalitarian countries, gender differences in Realistic, Investigative, and Social interests are larger, revealing an “Interest–Gender-Equality Paradox.” Conversely, gender differences in Artistic, Enterprising, and Conventional interests are smaller in these countries. These relationships remain largely robust after controlling for country-level economic development (Gross Domestic Product). We discuss possible explanations and implications of our findings.

Effects of Adler's Theory‐Based nudge volunteer program on middle school students

AbstractAdler emphasized social interest as a social adaptive lifestyle. The study used a nudge strategy to generate social interest in middle school students through a volunteer program. If student gets a good reward for volunteering, it can be a nudge naturally toward social interest. The dependent variables for the volunteer program as a nudge are inferiority complex, social interest, and game over‐immersion. Using convenience sampling, it was assigning 28 participants to two groups each. The experimental group participated in an intervention consisting of 9 sessions of 90 min each, once a week. Both groups were assessed before and after intervention and at a 4‐weeks follow‐up. Program effectiveness was analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance. The results showed that it was a significant difference in inferiority complex between the experimental and control groups immediately after intervention, and that it was a strong difference in social interest and game over‐emersion both immediately after the experiment and 4 weeks later. Therefore, it proposes that volunteer programs to increase social interest and transition to a pro‐social lifestyle be included as a nudge in school extracurricular activities or curriculum.

Multi-view multi-behavior interest learning network and contrastive learning for multi-behavior recommendation

The recommendation system aims to recommend items to users by capturing their personalized interests. Traditional recommendation systems typically focus on modeling target behaviors between users and items. However, in practical application scenarios, various types of behaviors (e.g., click, favorite, purchase, etc.) occur between users and items. Despite recent efforts in modeling various behavior types, multi-behavior recommendation still faces two significant challenges. The first challenge is how to comprehensively capture the complex relationships between various types of behaviors, including their interest differences and interest commonalities. The second challenge is how to solve the sparsity of target behaviors while ensuring the authenticity of information from various types of behaviors. To address these issues, a multi-behavior recommendation framework based on Multi-View Multi-Behavior Interest Learning Network and Contrastive Learning (MMNCL) is proposed. This framework includes a multi-view multi-behavior interest learning module that consists of two submodules: the behavior difference aware submodule, which captures intra-behavior interests for each behavior type and the correlations between various types of behaviors, and the behavior commonality aware submodule, which captures the information of interest commonalities between various types of behaviors. Additionally, a multi-view contrastive learning module is proposed to conduct node self-discrimination, ensuring the authenticity of information integration among various types of behaviors, and facilitating an effective fusion of interest differences and interest commonalities. Experimental results on three real-world benchmark datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of MMNCL and its advantages over other state-of-the-art recommendation models.

Faktor-Faktor Penentu Keputusan Etis Konsultan Pajak di PT Mitra Manajemen Internasional

Ethics is very important in the business world, business ethics refers to the principles and values ​​that influence a company's actions and decision making. As an important part of tax compliance, tax consultants must understand tax regulations and make decisions in accordance with ethics to maintain the integrity of the profession and public trust. A number of large cases of tax evasion and bribery show that tax consultants engage in unethical actions, which can hinder business growth. Tax consultants are responsible for providing tax input in accordance with regulations and liaising with the tax authorities. The difference in interests between consultants and clients causes ethical conflicts. PT Mitra Manajemen Internasional uses policies that support the ethical decision making of tax consultants. This research aims to find factors that influence the ethical decisions of tax consultants at PT Mitra Manajemen Internasional. It is hoped that this research can provide deeper insight and help develop better policies and programs to support ethics in the tax consultant profession through interviews and participant observation.

Effect of Kinesthetic Learning on Students’ Interest and Achievement in Mathematics

One of the pertinent reasons for poor academic achievement in Mathematics is fundamentally linked to the application of ineffective teaching methods by teachers to impact knowledge to learners. This study adopts a quasi-experimental pre-test post-test research design to examine the efficacy of kinesthetic learning on interest and achievement in Mathematics. Four research questions were raised to guide the study and four hypotheses were formulated and tested at 0.05 level of significance. The sample comprises 101 Junior Secondary School students drawn from two secondary schools in Bekwarra Local Government Area of Cross River State, Nigeria. Two intact classes were randomly selected from each school and assigned to experimental and control group. Data for the study were sourced using a modified Mathematics Interest Inventory (MII) and mathematics achievement test designed by the researchers tagged Students’ Mathematics Achievement Test (SMAT). Data collected were analyzed using mean, standard deviation and Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA). The findings revealed a high post-test interest cluster mean of 3.10 (above the decision benchmark of 2.50) and also a higher post-test mean achievement score with (Mean = 20.82; Standard Deviation = 3.63) for students in the experimental group compared to the control group. The result also indicated that both male and female students taught mathematics using kinesthetic learning in the experimental group had positive interest and achievement after exposure to the treatment. The test of the hypotheses indicated that there is significant difference in interest and achievement between students taught mathematics using kinesthetic learning and conventional method, whereas there is no significant difference on the interest and achievement of male and female students taught mathematics using kinesthetic learning. The study concluded that kinesthetic learning has a positive effect on interest and achievement in mathematics; and that gender is not a sole determinant of good academic performance or interest in mathematics but teaching method. The study recommended that mathematics teachers should adopt kinesthetic learning or play way method in teaching because of its relevance in improving learners’ interest and achievement.

Divorce Bureaucracy in the Sharia Space: Examining Practices in Langsa City, Aceh

Divorce in the community is often understood differently between Islamic law, the State, and customary law. Each of these laws has a fundamental legal basis regarding the concept of divorce. The impact of differences in the legal concept of divorce results in different Muslim communities in the process of terminating marital relations. This research aims to examine further how the divorce bureaucracy in Indonesia affects the divorce process in the community. This paper results from an empirical study with a socio-legal study approach, this approach is used to review how divorce in society is practiced. Data was obtained from interviews with relevant parties. To strengthen the data and analysis, this research also uses several empirical research results and other important articles related to this paper. The results show that the divorce bureaucracy in Langsa City, Aceh still leaves problems caused by differences in viewpoints and interests so that divorce outside the court still occurs. The difference in perspective is based on the understanding that divorce is legal if it fulfills the provisions of Islamic law. On the other hand, people who are aware of the law have the view that divorce must be done before the court. The bureaucracy of divorce, which involves administration and the conditions that must be met, makes divorce considered complicated and takes a long time. Conversely, religious divorce does not require a long time and cost. In addition, the interest in a quick process without the need for an administrative process also influences the divorce bureaucracy. Non-judicial mediation at the village level is essential for reducing divorce rates and reducing divorce bureaucracy.

Fifth, in terms of SW education competency, the higher the SW education competency, the higher the interest in AI education, and in terms of AI education support, the higher the support for AI education, the higher the interest. Conclusions According to these results, as a way to increase special education teachers' interest in AI education, promote AI education to special education teachers so that they can be effective and interested in students with disabilities, and provide sufficient AI education methods and teaching and learning materials according to the type of disability. Needs to be. In addition, national-level policy support is needed, such as providing opportunities for expert collaboration and establishing new training courses so that special education teachers can develop AI education-related capabilities.

When do petrostates diversify their exports? Urgency, interests, and policy design in Egypt, Kazakhstan, and Malaysia

AbstractMotivationThe need to diversify their economies is an enduring challenge for fossil fuel‐dependent countries, one which will become ever more important as the world seeks to decarbonize. But the conditions under which major oil‐producing countries (petrostates) seek to diversify their exports—and those under which their attempts succeed—are poorly understood.PurposeThis article tests competing explanations for the successes and failures of petrostates' export diversification.Methods and approachWe employ a comparative case study approach using qualitative evidence from two comparatively successful diversification cases—Egypt and Malaysia—and one less successful case—Kazakhstan—selected using a Theil index of export concentration.FindingsThe evidence indicates that Egypt and Malaysia's more successful outcomes stemmed more from necessity and policy design than from differences in domestic institutions and interests. All three countries were motivated to diversify by price volatility and declining revenues at various points from the 1980s to the 2000s and beyond, but reserve depletion was a greater threat in Egypt and Malaysia. As such, they adopted a more balanced approached to diversification, one that combined liberalization with state intervention.Policy implicationsThese cases suggest that petrostates may be willing and able to diversify as the global shift toward renewables raises the prospect of unburnable oil reserves. Petrostates can diversify efficiently by using a basket of policies that includes a mix of economic liberalization and government intervention to create investment and incentives in non‐oil tradeable sectors and nurture infant industries. Opposition to reforms in petrostates can be addressed by selectively compensating vested interests.

Social reintegration of individuals convicted of terrorism in France: From paradox to blind spot?

Social reintegration of individuals convicted of terrorism is a major issue of probationary and scientific debate. However, while the issue has made significant strides internationally, it has until now received little attention in France. The aim of this article is to highlight this difference in interest and to provide some insights into the reasons for this. It does this by drawing on a literature review of French scientific articles published in peer-reviewed journals between 2012 and 2022. The article first defines the notion of social reintegration. Then, it highlights how, while the question of réinsertion of prisoners is presented as a fundamental objective of probationary practices and is a subject of interest in French research, the same cannot be said for social reintegration. This article concludes that this difference can be explained in terms of the interplay between practical and academic fields, internationalization, and interdisciplinarity.

Efektivitas Media Pembelajaran Berbasis Wordwall dalam Meningkatkan Minat Belajar Pendidikan Agama Islam di SMPN 02 Abung Pekurun

Islamic education at SMPN 02 Abung Pekurun is often perceived as less engaging and fails to receive positive responses from students due to the limited creativity of teachers in utilizing instructional media. A quantitative study was conducted using a Quasi-Experimental approach to evaluate the effect of using the Wordwall website as a learning media in enhancing students' learning interest. The experimental group utilized Wordwall, while the control group employed conventional methods. The t-test results indicate a significant difference in students' learning interest, with the experimental group averaging 59.18 and the control group averaging 47.35. This finding reaffirms that the use of Wordwall can enhance the effectiveness of Islamic education, enrich students' learning experiences, and provide an engaging alternative through technology in the educational process. This research contributes significantly to the development of more innovative and technology-oriented teaching methods.

Sociodemographic Impact on the Adoption of Emerging Technologies

This study investigates the influence of gender and age on the acceptance of emerging technologies such as robotics and artificial intelligence (AI), Using the Spanish Sociological Research Centre’s Science and Technology Perception Survey 2023. This is a representative sample of the Spanish population, comprising 2,384 responses. The results obtained using Ordinary Least Squares Regression reveal highly significant differences in acceptance and interest in technology, with women and older people showing less enthusiasm towards AI and robotics. The study also uncovers a nuanced perception of the socio-cultural impact of technology. While concerns about dehumanization were evident, fears related to elitism and inequality were not significantly supported. These findings highlight the need for inclusive and sensitive strategies in the development and implementation of new technologies by both corporate CSR policy and public policy.
