초등학생의 공감코칭프로그램 개발 및 효과

The purpose of this study is to develop a coaching program to improve elementary school students' empathy for peer relationship attachment and a happy and enjoyable school life. Elementary students can motivate themselves by using coaching techniques to present their opinions rather than the vertical teachings of teachers, and to use the C-PLUS coaching dialogue model to give positive feedback to elementary students. Rather than giving answers
 on how to improve abilities, various activities helped elementary school students to internalize and live empathy. To examine the effect of the empathy coaching program for elementary school students developed in this study, self-regulation and communication skills were divided into pre-test and post-test. The even higher scores of self-regulation and communication in the experimental group when compared to the control group suggest that the cognitive, emotional, and communicative elements of the empathy coaching program were properly arranged. In addition, the program goal of the researcher was consistent in that elementary students' empathy was improved by improving their empathy ability by strengthening their positive emotion and internal control through coaching conversation. This study demonstrates the need for coaching programs and the value of their use.

GRUP KARARLARINDA AZINLIK ETKİSİ KAVRAMININ “12 KIZGIN ADAM” FİLMİ ÜZERİNDEN İNCELENMESİ

The aim of this study is to examine the group dynamics and decision-making process in the movie "12 Angry Men" with a micro-level critical discourse analysis. The study aims to explore the influence of a member within the group on collective decisions and the influence of the first advocate of face-to-face group discussion. The leadership behavior of Henry, the main character of the movie, influences the group despite being in a minority position, and provides a platform for discussion. By tackling different topics, Henry creates differences of opinion among the majority, thereby understanding the thinking of each member and shaping their speech. Henry's position in the group can be explained by his minority influence; because in the beginning only he did not comply with the majority by voting "not guilty". However, he later acted consistently in his decision, causing the group's thoughts and votes to change. This study provides an important example for understanding the complexity of group dynamics and communication and highlights the role of leadership in minority influence.

Проблема адаптации иностранных учащихся к практикам онлайн-обучения в российском вузе

The article presents the results of an exploratory sociological study conducted in September-October 2023 on the problem of the influence of online learning educational practices on the social adaptation of foreign stu-dents at universities in Russia. The empirical object of research was Chinese citizens studying at Lomonosov Moscow State University and currently located on the territory of the Russian Federation. The study, using an online survey, obtained answers to questions about the attitude of Chinese students to the organization of the educational process, the practices of their interaction and communications in small study groups. It has been empirically proven that the attitude of Chinese students to any form of education depends on the extent to which the issue of overcoming the language barrier and building intercultural communication is resolved in a particular educational practice. At the same time, they associate a positive attitude towards online learning with the opportunity to study without the need to be on the territory of the Russian Federation, and a negative one with communication problems, particularly the lack of direct communication with a teacher.

PENA EMAS: A MODEL OF COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT AND INDEPENDENT PARTICIPATION IN HANDLING STUNTING

Various national efforts and programs have been launched to overcome the problem of stunting. However, the incidence of stunting still cannot be resolved optimally. One real effort to overcome the problem of stunting is to empower the community itself. In implementing this community empowerment activity, the PRA (Participatory Rural Appraisal) method is used because this method emphasizes the full involvement of partner communities in the program to be carried out. The three program priorities that will be implemented are providing additional food (PMT) to stunted toddlers and toddlers as well as pregnant women with chronic energy deficiency (KEK), increasing knowledge of partner communities through information communication and education (KIE) activities for target groups, and economic empowerment. family. The aim of implementing this activity is to provide assistance and trigger partner communities in overcoming the stunting problem that occurs. A total of 16 people attended the Ecoprint Workshop, and 15 people attended catfish cultivation training. The output targets targeted in implementing this activity include reducing the number of toddlers and toddlers with stunting, increasing hemoglobin levels and upper arm circumference in pregnant women who experience chronic energy deficiency, publishing articles in national journals, and documenting the implementation of community empowerment activities with stunting problems.

The communication preferences of University of Idaho Extension professionals and their constituents

As Cooperative Extension Services (CES) grow, agriculture evolves, and urbanization increases, Extension professionals are challenged to continue meeting the needs of their constituents by providing reliable, research-backed information to their communities. This includes utilizing appropriate communication means to reach their constituents. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the communication preferences of University of Idaho CES professionals and their constituents and the communication types and channels most used. We used a cross-sectional descriptive census survey design and administered the survey to all University of Idaho CES faculty and educators. We analyzed the data via descriptive statistics, Wilcoxon signed rank tests, and paired sample t-tests. University of Idaho CES professionals ranked mainly individual communication channels as their preferred method of communication. However, they felt their constituents may prefer mass or group communication channels more than they do. CES professionals should utilize audience segmentation to serve their constituents better. COVID-19 also significantly increased the time spent preparing communications and utilizing mass communications. While technological-based communication increased during COVID-19, it is important to consider access and availability to constituents. Understanding what resources constituents have available and how they prefer to receive their information, can help CES professionals maintain relationships with their audiences.

Professional Development Increases Child Care Providers’ NDBI Implementation and Children’s Language Outcomes

A majority of children’s language learning experiences occur in inclusive early child care and education settings. Few evidence-based professional development (PD) programs exist to empower early childhood education providers to use language instruction practices with children in inclusive classrooms. There is little research on providers’ implementation of naturalistic developmental behavioral intervention (NDBI) strategies to improve children’s language outcomes in whole-group inclusive instruction. We conducted a pilot cluster randomized controlled trial to test the hypothesis that providers in the Early Achievements for Child Care Providers (EA-CP) PD program would show greater gains in NDBI implementation fidelity during shared book reading relative to business-as-usual (BAU) providers. This hypothesis was confirmed. Compared to BAU providers, EA-CP providers exhibited significantly greater fidelity gains from pre-training to mid-training, post-training, and 12-week maintenance assessments. A secondary hypothesis was that toddlers with and without developmental delays in the EA-CP condition would exhibit greater vocabulary and communication gains than toddlers in the BAU condition. Analyses of children with and without delays showed significantly greater expressive vocabulary and story-related engagement and communication in the EA-CP group. For children with delays, positive effects favoring the EA-CP group but not statistically significant were found. Implications for research, practice, and policy are discussed.

UNDERGRADUATES’ PERCEPTION OF COMMUNITY SERVICE COURSE-NARRATIVES ON CHALLENGES AND INITIATIVES AT TECHNICAL ENGINEERING UNIVERSITY

Community service is an important co-curricular course which is offered to university students in many countries to develop critical thinking skills, awareness, empathy and soft-skills like management and communication. How such as course is able to instill in students the desired traits requires more study. This study aims to investigate the perception of undergraduates participating in community service course, the challenges that they have to face and their initiatives as mitigation strategies in achieving the goals of community service. Data for this study is elicited via a simple mix-method approach that combines elements of quantitative and qualitative research. The 68 undergraduates who served as purposive samples were enrolled in a 14-week co-curricular course called community service and were surveyed, interviewed and physically observed as they undertook the assigned tasks. All the community service groups were able to plan and execute four main projects. The study found five types of main challenges that the students have to face namely i. sourcing for funds and financial support, ii. logistics and manpower, iii. group dynamics, communication and cooperation, iv. time management and v. task planning and distribution. Initiatives and mitigation strategies undertaken by the students are having more specific meeting and discussion, exploring all possible options, appointing capable group leader who knows roles well and referring to and consulting lecturers. These insights from this study are useful for tertiary level curriculum planners to further enhance the effectiveness of such experiential learning course to further actualize the potential of the university students.

Penyimpangan Maksim Kesantunan Berbahasa Mahasiswa pada Dosen dalam Interaksi WhatsApp Group

Language politeness is the key to good communication, including in communication in student WhatsApp groups. However, violations of the principle of language politeness often occur among students, especially in WhatsApp course groups. This study aims to discuss violations of the principle of language politeness among students in Indonesian language course class groups. This study uses a qualitative method with research data in the form of WhatsApp message media. The results showed that there were four violations of the maxim of wisdom, one violation of the maxim of sympathy, five violations of the maxim of generosity, and one violation of the maxim of humility. These violations occur because students think that WhatsApp groups tend to be informal and pay less attention to language politeness. The results of this study are expected to increase students' awareness of the importance of language politeness in communication, especially in WhatsApp groups.

A longitudinal analysis of communication traits: communication apprehension, willingness to communicate, and self-perceived communication competence

ABSTRACT This longitudinal study assessed the communication apprehension, willingness to communicate, and self-perceived communication competence for a group of participants across a 15-year span. In total, 220 of 237 participants completed the 15-year project. The data represent six time points, with data collections happening once every three years. The results show that meeting communication apprehension, dyadic communication apprehension, public communication apprehension, willingness to communicate, and self-perceived communication competence all changed across time, indicating these traditionally thought of trait-like variables behaved more as state-like characteristics. Group communication apprehension did not change over time, indicating it may be more trait-like than state like. Results are limited by evidence of poor temporal stability for the public communication apprehension, self-perceived communication competence, and willingness to communicate measures.

INTERFACE OF ARKAIM: ON THE QUESTION OF METAPHORIZATION

The article examines a theoretical approach to understanding the functioning of two discourses about Arkaim (scientifi c and esoteric) as a clash of two interpretations. This problem is considered using a set of humanitarian approaches through the concepts of interface, interpretation, metaphorization, object, assembly. The author comes to the conclusion about two-way group communication with space, which is expressed through, on the one hand, comprehension of the primary space of Arkaim (the natural givenness of space), on the other hand, cognitive development of space through the reconstruction of secondary space. Secondary space becomes the result of the actualization of one or another interpretation of space and is expressed through the construction of new cultural objects or cultural layers on the primary space.

Pola Komunikasi Pengasuh dalam Menegakkan Kedisiplinan Santri Pondok Pesantren Modern Daar Al-Uluum Kisaran

The aim of this research is to determine the communication patterns of the mujahideen assembly in broadcasting Islamic law in the city of Medan and to determine the obstacles and supporting factors for the mujahideen assembly in broadcasting Islamic law in the city of Medan. The method in this research is to use a qualitative method where the researcher goes directly to the field and interviews the sources or informants of this research face to face. The results of this research are the communication patterns used by supervisors in enforcing student discipline at the Daar Al-Uluum Kisaran Modern Islamic Boarding School, Kisaran, Asahan Regency, namely Interpersonal Communication Patterns and Group Communication Patterns. The factor that is an obstacle to carrying out the dhuha prayer discipline is the lack of self-confidence of the students towards their caregivers at the Daar Al-Uluum Modern Islamic Boarding School which results in the caregivers/guides not knowing the problems experienced by the students. The closed nature of a santri makes it difficult for caregivers/coaches to know what problems the santri are experiencing. There is still a lack of creating a harmonious relationship between all elements of caregivers at the Daar Al-Modern Islamic Boarding School and the Santri. This less than harmonious relationship occurs because the students who have just entered still don't know the students and their caregivers/guides as a whole and there is still a sense of embarrassment (awkwardness) among the students, especially the students who have just entered, when dealing directly with the caregivers/guides at the Daar Al Modern Islamic Boarding School. -Uluum Kisaran, Asahan Regency.

Komunikasi Inovasi dan Perilaku Adopsi Sorgum Bioguma di Kabupaten Langkat

Innovation communication is an approach in development communication that aims to introduce an innovation to the community so that it creates a certain effect as something useful. One of the innovations created by the government is sorghum bioguma as an alternative commodity for the purpose of food diversification. This study aims to analyze the innovation communication model of sorghum bioguma; analyze the innovation communication channels of sorghum bioguma; and analyzing the adoption behavior of sorghum bioguma in Pasar VI Kwala Mencirim village, Sei Bingai sub-district, Langkat Regency, North Sumatra. The informants in this study were the Balai Pengkajian Teknologi Pertanian Sumatera Utara (BPTP Sumut) and farmers in Pasar VI Kwala Mencirim village. The research was conducted using a qualitative approach with descriptive methods. The theory used is Everett M Rogers' diffusion of innovation and Ban and Hawkins' Agricultural Extension. Data collection techniques were carried out by interviews, observation and documentation. The results of the study indicated: Communication of sorghum bioguma innovations carried out by BPTP Sumut through four activities namely carrying out coordination, involving farmer groups, making demonstration plots, and carrying out technical guidance. These four activities are a model of a centralized diffusion system, which means the spread of innovation is carried out linearly from the central government to farmers; The innovation communication channels used by BPTP Sumut are interpersonal, group, audio-visual, and social media communication channels. Interpersonal communication is the most effective channel in changing farmers' attitudes; Farmers in Pasar VI Kwala Mencirim adopt unsustainable. This decision was included in the type of active rejection, which means that the farmers had tried the sorghum bioguma innovation but then decided not to adopt it because there was no economic advantage.

An Efficient Vehicle-Assisted Aggregate Authentication Scheme for Infrastructure-Less Vehicular Networks

In recent years, growing research interest from both industry and academia has been aroused to the vehicular networks, which is regarded as the fundamental component of the modern intelligent transportation system (ITS). Lots of remarkable research outputs with respect to secure vehicular data interactions and user privacy preservation has been witnessed. However, the existing schemes all focus on the common vehicular communication scenarios where facilities are deployed, whereas the secure data exchange in the abnormal infrastructure-less vehicular environment has not been properly investigated. To deal with unpredictable abnormal situations caused by artificial or natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods, a distinctive vehicle-assisted aggregate authentication mechanism for infrastructure-less vehicular networks is presented in this paper. With assistance from the neighboring vehicles, the homomorphic signature involving all requesting vehicles is generated and forwarded to the remaining functional RSUs. Meanwhile, vehicular group communication among the validated entities is enabled. Additionally, the fault-tolerant verification method is adopted such that the ineffective entities can be easily distinguished and removed without interfering with other requesting vehicles. The security proofs and discussions regarding vital security properties are presented, while the performance analysis follows. Compared with the state-of-the-art, advantages in terms of security and performance properties can be proved.
