A STUDY ON THE PROBLEM OF MEANING IN THE ART OF SCULPTURE

This study explores the complex relationship between the meaning of sculpture and its making process in the context of the philosophy of language. Sculpture is a unique art form that involves the creation of three-dimensional objects that occupy physical space. However, the meaning of a sculpture is not limited to its spatial characteristics alone. This study identifies two distinct levels of meaning in sculpture: its relation to space and its making process. While the former has received considerable attention in the literature, the latter has been largely overlooked. Therefore, this study focuses on the semantic relationship between Richard Serra's sculptures and his sculpture-making processes, particularly in his early works.
 
 Richard Serra is widely regarded as one of the most important artists of the Process Art movement, which emerged in the 1960s and emphasizes the importance of the making process in art. The study questions the reduction of the meaning of sculpture to a mere action and seeks to establish a deeper relationship between the philosophy of language and the process of sculpture. To achieve this, the study draws on the works of Ludwig Wittgenstein, J. L. Austin, and John R. Searle, who are some of the most important philosophers of language of the 20th century.
 
 Wittgenstein's concept of language games and his emphasis on the social context of language use is particularly relevant to this study. The study explores how Serra's sculpture-making processes can be seen as a form of language game, with its own rules and conventions. Similarly, Austin's concept of performative language provides a framework for understanding how the making process of a sculpture can be seen as a form of performative action. The study also draws on Searle's theory of speech acts, which suggests that language use is not just a matter of describing the world, but also of performing actions and creating new realities.
 
 Overall, this study represents an important contribution to the field of art and philosophy. By exploring the relationship between the meaning of sculpture and its making process, the study challenges traditional notions of art and raises important questions about the nature of meaning and representation in art. The study also demonstrates the relevance of the philosophy of language to the study of art and provides a framework for future research in this area.

The research results showed that mathematical logical abilities can be trained through methods, media, and mathematical problems in the form of questions in the form of educational games, computational thinking (CT) questions, and puzzles because they are related to students' ability to solve problems by drawing conclusions through logical reasoning. The practical benefits of students studying CT are improving problem solving abilities, improving logical thinking and analytical abilities. The advantage of students learning educational games, puzzles and HOTS questions is that they train and develop students' abilities to think logically, critically and creatively.

Reforming Education for Sustainability: The Contribution of Serious Games to Address Risk Communication for Resilience. An Illustrative Example Focused on Tsunami Events

This article explores the potential contribution of serious games in improving environmental risk communicationin view of reformingEducation for Sustainability(EfS) using a serious game.Following concerns related to the apparent weakness of EfS in providing transitional skills towards resilient and sustainable societies, we present some pedagogical approaches as the basis for learning processes when designing and building a serious game prototype. We explain why both targeting children and embracing uncertainty in the context of risk is strategic, and why using a serious game as a learning vehicle is particularly relevant in the context of an information and communication technology (ICT) reliant society.The article suggests how the use of key messages in an adventure game format could address other natural hazards. It demonstrates the potential of certain dimensions of ICTs in helping to adapt learning to the classroom environment and in generating both practical skills and long-term positive impacts in society.

Metaverse-Based Learning in the Digital Era

Digital disruption in the world of education refers to the impact of technology on traditional education systems and models, where the current education system is felt to need to be adjusted to the progress of the times and the needs of students. The business model of education in this digital era requires the innovation and creativity of teachers. After the Covid 19 pandemic, in addition to providing challenges in the world of education, it also provides an opportunity where students and educators are accustomed to online learning applications, teleconference applications, or collaboration applications that were previously not or rarely used by the world of Education. Many apps have been created to make online learning easier. Metaverse has been around since 2010, but due to the pandemic, the use of metaverse in learning is again being used with the development of Virtual reality, extended reality, and augmented reality technology. These three technologies can display a virtual environment just like the original environment. The method used to design metaverse-based learning is to use the ADDIE research and development model while learning development follows the stages of the Dick and Carey model. The results of field trials using survey methods and experiments on 20 junior high school students for one semester using the metaverse, resulted in a score of 4.82 with the conclusion of excellent learning material, students felt very happy, motivated to complete tasks, and always followed the learning stages designed in the form of games. Implementing the metaverse in learning can increase student engagement, creativity, technology skills, collaboration, and interaction as well as improve learning experiences that are more fun and engaging.

Selling information in competitive environments

Data buyers compete in a game of incomplete information about which a single data seller owns some payoff-relevant information. The seller faces a joint information- and mechanism-design problem: deciding which information to sell, while eliciting the buyers' types and imposing payments. We derive the welfare- and revenue-optimal mechanisms for a class of games with binary actions and states. Our results highlight the critical properties of selling information in competitive environments: (i) the negative externalities arising from buyer competition increase the profitability of recommending the correct action to one buyer exclusively; (ii) for the buyers to follow the seller's recommendations, the degree of exclusivity must be limited; (iii) the buyers' obedience constraints also reduce the distortions in the allocation of information introduced by a monopolist; (iv) as competition becomes fiercer, these limitations become more severe, weakening the impact of market power on the optimal allocation of information.

The Use of Gamification in the Self-Management of Patients With Chronic Diseases: Scoping Review.

Chronic disease self-management is a public health issue of worldwide concern, and gamification is an emerging strategy to improve patients' participation in chronic disease self-management. Some studies have summarized designs for the gamification of chronic disease self-management from the perspective of eHealth technology, but they have not mentioned differences in design methods, functions, and evaluation methods of gamified designs for self-management in different chronic diseases. This scoping review aims to synthesize the characteristics of realization forms, functions, and evaluation methods in chronic disease self-management gamification to improve self-management among the chronic disease population. We applied a methodological framework for scoping reviews and the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews) checklist. As of January 7, 2023, we systematically searched 9 databases for relevant studies from January 2012 to December 2022. Related data were extracted based on the research questions. We calculated the frequencies, charted the quantitative data, and coded the extracted material for qualitative content analysis. We retrieved 16,221 records, of which 70 (0.43%) met the eligibility criteria. In the included research, the target populations for gamified designs for self-management of chronic diseases included patients with stroke, cancer, diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, coronary heart disease, obesity, and hypertension. Almost all studies mentioned technical support for gamification (68/70, 97%), mainly in the form of active video games (58/70, 83%); however, less than half of the studies mentioned the theoretical basis for gamification (31/70, 44%). There were 37 concepts or theories relevant to gamification design, most of which were in the field of psychology or were cross-disciplinary (n=33, 89%). Gamification for the self-management of chronic diseases has been widely recognized, including for promoting physical exercise and rehabilitation training (48/99, 48%), increasing initiative for symptom management (18/99, 18%), providing psychological support (14/99, 14%), improving cognitive function (12/99, 12%), and improving medication adherence (7/99, 7%). A total of 39 studies mentioned the gamification effect; however, we did not find a unified evaluation standard. This scoping review focuses on gamification designs for chronic disease self-management and summarizes the realization forms and functions of gamification in self-management for different patient populations. With practice in a gamified internet-based environment, patients can not only master the knowledge and skills of self-management in fascinating scenarios but also benefit from gaming experience and make better health-related decisions in real life. It is worth noting that a comprehensive evaluation of the users as well as a personalized and targeted intervention should be developed before gamification.

Coherence requirements for quantum communication from hybrid circuit dynamics

The coherent superposition of quantum states is an important resource for quantum information processing which distinguishes quantum dynamics and information from their classical counterparts. In this article we determine the coherence requirements to communicate quantum information in a broad setting encompassing monitored quantum dynamics and quantum error correction codes. We determine these requirements by considering hybrid circuits that are generated by a quantum information game played between two opponents, Alice and Eve, who compete by applying unitaries and measurements on a fixed number of qubits. Alice applies unitaries in an attempt to maintain quantum channel capacity, while Eve applies measurements in an attempt to destroy it. By limiting the coherence generating or destroying operations available to each opponent, we determine Alice’s coherence requirements. When Alice plays a random strategy aimed at mimicking generic monitored quantum dynamics, we discover a coherence-tuned phase transitions in entanglement and quantum channel capacity. We then derive a theorem giving the minimum coherence required by Alice in any successful strategy, and conclude by proving that coherence sets an upper bound on the code distance in any stabelizer quantum error correction code. Such bounds provide a rigorous quantification of the coherence resource requirements for quantum communication and error correction.

Is Gamification a Suitable Means to Improve Applicant Reactions and Convey Information During an Online Test?

Abstract: This study examined whether gamification of a computer-based cognitive ability test can positively influence applicant reactions. The gamification used a job-related storyline, avatars, and information games that were designed not only to increase enjoyment but also to convey information about the job. 212 participants completed either the gamified or the non-gamified test and answered questions concerning applicant reactions. The results showed that gamification can be used to playfully provide information about the organization and job during an assessment and, thus, can enhance perceived clarity about what to expect in a job. Additionally, the gamified assessment was rated higher on opportunity to perform compared to its traditional version, while no differences were found between the two tests for fairness, job relatedness, and enjoyment.

Optimizing PPKn Formative Test in Elementary School Level with Digital Food Education Game

This research discusses the importance of integrating digital learning media, particularly interactive formative tests based on regional food education games, to enhance the learning outcomes of Pancasila and Citizenship Education (PPKn) at the Elementary School (SD) level. The main goal of PPKn is to cultivate good character and citizenship in students. In the digital era, the use of technology is considered essential to provide a more interactive and engaging learning experience. This study employs a qualitative method and a case study framework to propose the implementation of interactive formative tests through digital learning media, focusing on the use of regional food education games. The research instruments involve the development and application of interactive formative tests based on food education games for SD students. Data are collected through classroom observations, interviews with teachers, and the analysis of formative test results. The findings indicate that the implementation of interactive formative tests through digital learning media, particularly utilizing regional food education games, positively contributes to the learning outcomes of PPKn for SD students. Educational games not only enhance knowledge of traditional foods but also facilitate discussions on local wisdom, cultural diversity, and a sense of love for the homeland. The effectiveness of interactive formative tests is evident in the increased active participation of students in the learning process. This study suggests that the implementation of interactive formative tests through digital learning media, especially in the form of educational games, can serve as an effective model to improve PPKn learning outcomes at the SD level. Support from schools, teachers, and educational stakeholders is crucial to integrate technology in a relevant and meaningful way into student learning.

Identification and estimation of sequential games of incomplete information with multiple equilibria

This paper discusses the identification and estimation of game-theoretic models, mainly focusing on sequential games of incomplete information. In most empirical games, researchers cannot observe the exact order of actions played in the game and rely on the assumption of simultaneous actions. My structural modeling generalizes an empirical game to encompass simultaneous and sequential actions as special cases. I specify a sequential game allowing for multiple players in each stage and multiple Perfect Bayesian Nash Equilibria, showing that the structural parameters, including the payoff function parameters, the order of actions, and the equilibrium selection mechanism, are separately identified. The various exclusion restrictions in the finite mixture literature help attain point identification of structural parameters and provide a testable method to verify identification conditions. Next, I consider a Sieve Minimum Distance (SMD) estimator of Ai and Chen (2003) for the structural parameters and verify its asymptotic properties. The Monte Carlo simulations evaluate the performance of the proposed estimator and provide numerical evidence of potential bias under the misspecified order of actions. The empirical application of Walmart and Kmart’s entry game demonstrates that retailers compete sequentially in a significant portion of markets.

EMPOWERMENT OF TRADITIONAL SPORTS IN LOWER GRADE ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS IN BANJAR REGENCY

This article describes a national culture that is spread throughout the country and is slowly disappearing and is difficult to find in schools. This occurs as a result of developments in increasingly modern times, so that students are slowly switching from traditional games to modern games in the form of online games. This research was carried out at the Tambak Sirang Baru State Elementary School, Banjar Regency, South Kalimantan. The aim of this research is to introduce and socialize traditional games, especially Gobak Sodor.The research method is a quantitative experimental approach type one group pretest-posttest with a sample consisting of 10 grade 1 students. The research instrument is a questionnaire using the Guttman scale to measure participants' knowledge of traditional games before and after socialization. The research results showed that participants' understanding and interest in traditional games increased after socialization. Data analysis using percentages showed that the majority of participants had low knowledge (40-55%) 3 students or very low (0-40%) 5 students recognized traditional games before socialization. The improvement seen after socialization, most participants obtained a very high level of knowledge (85-100%) 5 students out of 10 students and very low (0-40%) none. Therefore, it is hoped that activities supporting traditional games such as Gobak Sodor can be a solution to revitalize children's interest and understanding of Indonesia's cultural heritage. This article states that in the context of PJOK learning, traditional games not only teach physical aspects but also build values, culture and cooperative strategies in group activities. From the results of this research, it is hoped that traditional games will become an effective educational tool for developing the physical, social and skill aspects of modern children.

Formation mechanism of on-grid power tariff using game model of complete information

The key to the reform of the power system is to design a fair bidding and trading system. Analyzing the transaction process of electricity price competition, suppressing market power and other unfavorable factors, and finding a perfect bidding system are the research goals of this paper. In order to study the competition in the power spot market and power contract market, this paper employs the game model of complete information and the game theory as a tool. The power spot market adopts the Market Clearing Price (MCP) settlement method, in which the power grid determines the maximal real-time price of the generator node as the MCP. The price is based on the three bidding strategy curves of the power plant. As a result, a Nash equilibrium of power plant revenue is formed. According to the Cournot model and Stackelberg model that analyze the power contract market, the long-term equilibrium price of Stackelberg model in the power contract market is higher than that of the perfectly competitive market and less than or equal to the output of perfect monopoly market. The long-term equilibrium price and output in the power contract market are both certain and stable. This paper has analyzed the static game of complete information in the power market and carried out practical application. The results show that the bidding strategies of power plants have a Nash equilibrium and they have an incentive to collude. The MCP mechanism cannot solve the problem of market power influence. The conclusion of the research provides a basis for the design of the power hybrid auction system.

The Effect of Tightrope Walker Exercise on the Static Balance of Children Aged 4-7 Years with Flat Foot Conditions at KB Islamic Kindergarten Sultan Agung 2 Semarang City

Balance is the ability to maintain the body in the center of mass of the body against a fulcrum to oppose gravity in a position that is influenced by the sensory system, musculoskeletal and external effects. Flat foot is a musculoskeletal disorder in children. At the age of 5-6 years is a period of developing children's motor skills, especially balance, which is very good when stimulated in the form of games. One stimulation to improve the balance of flat foot children aged 4-7 years is tightrope walker training. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of tightrope walker training on the balance of children with flat feet aged 4-7 years. This research is a quasi experiment with a pre and post test design approach, namely the sample in the treatment group was given tightrope walker training for 4 weeks with a frequency of 2 times a week. Balance measurement uses the one legged stance test. Data analysis in this study used statistical tests with a significance level of 0.05 using the sample paired t-test. The results of statistical tests show that there is a significant influence between giving tightrope walker training on the static balance of children with flat foot conditions. The implementation of tightrope walker training for flat foot children is recommended for static balance problems in children. The conclusion of this research can be implemented that tightrope walker training has an influence on the balance of children with flat feet aged 4-7 years.
