School Heads’ Research Knowledge, Competence, and Challenges Encountered: Basis for Research Revitalization Program

Research is vital in addressing the pressing and emerging issues in school; thus, it should be cultivated and nurtured for the improvement of teaching competence, upgrading of school policies, and advancing school management towards educational development and progress. This study assessed the research knowledge, competence, and challenges encountered by the school heads in conducting research. Utilizing the quantitative-qualitative research design, the results revealed that the school heads had a high level of knowledge in creating research titles, creating context and rationale/introduction of the research, providing appropriate interventions, and collecting/gathering data. However, the school heads showed a very low competence in presenting research results and findings, formulating research instruments, evaluating research proposal/manuscript, interpreting research results and findings, and editing research proposal/manuscript. School heads’ research knowledge and competence were significantly influenced by educational attainment and school category. Sex significantly affected the school heads’ research competence but not their research knowledge. Challenges encountered were summarized in four key themes: (1) insufficiency of time, (2) difficulty in writing research technicalities, (3) paucity of knowledge in data collection processes, and (4) inadequacy of skills in data analysis and interpretation. The findings ensued in the creation of research revitalization programs and activities to rekindle the driving forces of school heads in providing research-based interventions while addressing properly, appropriately, and effectively the research challenges, which may lead to advanced management practices, upgraded school policy implementation, and improved quality of education.

Foreign language acquisition of perceptually similar segments: evidence from Lower Sorbian.

Lower Sorbian is a moribund language spoken in Eastern Germany that features a three-way sibilant contrast, /s, ʂ, ɕ/. The vast majority of L1 speakers are above eighty years of age and virtually no young Sorbians learn Lower Sorbian as their first language. There are language revitalization programs in place, but this means that virtually all Lower Sorbian speakers are L2 learners whose first language is German. German, as opposed to Lower Sorbian, has a two-way sibilant contrast, /s, ʃ/. So, Lower Sorbian learners need to acquire a perceptually similar sibilant contrast, /ʂ, ɕ/, that commonly assimilates with a single L1 segment, /ʃ/. The two-to-one assimilation makes acquisition difficult. In this project, I examine the acquisition of the three-way sibilant contrast using ultrasound technology. The ultrasound data revealed that learners in the contemporary context do not produce a distinction between /ʂ, ɕ/ and only learners at an advanced level who had significant exposure to L1 speakers have acquired a three-way sibilant distinction. The findings are put into the context of models of L2 acquisition and generalized implications for foreign language acquisition are discussed.

The Impact of War on the Public Realm and the Reconstruction in Cities after War Case study: Iraq, Mosul city

The social life, history, and customs of historic towns are all influenced by the public domain. The urban planning and architecture of the public domain establish the distinctive identity of old towns. They help to bring people together and form social bonds. In this phase, urban planning and architecture are vital. The public realm's historical character is essential for social interactions. The purpose of this study is to investigate and evaluate the impacts of conflict on the urban public realm (market places) in Mosul's war-torn region. Because they are largely responsible for the synthetic feeling of multidimensional space, the combination of urban and architectural influences was evaluated. These goals were fulfilled by employing an interpretative historical analysis methodology based on original assessment criteria. The data were used to categorize parts of the public domain that needed revitalization. By reestablishing the proper balance of economic, social, and cultural forces, revitalization programs aid in the preservation or revitalization of desirable places. The study found that the orderly and harmonious preparation of the public domain has a significant impact on people's perceptions of space.

The potential of blue-green infrastructure in spatial revitalization – application in Municipal Revitalization Programs

Opposing the spatial degeneration of cities requires a wide range of efforts which combine, among others, activities related to blue and green infrastructure (BGI). This paper examines the scope and manner of using BGI to revitalise space in municipal revitalisation programmes (MRP). In the first part of the study, the theoretical framework for the studied issues has been outlined based on subject literature. The manner of understanding BGI and revitalisation in the current legal system has been defined. The analysis covered 60 MRPs from 2016 to 2021 in accordance with the methodology set out in the second part of the study, based on how often BGI appeared in key MRP sections such as in-depth diagnosis of revitalisation area, the objectives and directions of the process, and the revitalisation projects. The last part of the paper describes the results of analysis and their evaluation. One of the main conclusions of the work we conducted is that BGI elements appear quite frequently in revitalisation programmes; however, their full potential remains untapped. The projects carried out in the studied area have rarely had the form of complex urban projects. The main method of using BGI in MRPs is currently the technical dimension that focuses on improving the quality of existing resources. To a lesser extent, revitalisation projects that use the BGI concept are reflected in the social and occasionally in the natural dimension.

Prevocalic word-initial glottal stops in Rote: Implications to language revitalisation

This paper presents an analysis of word-initial glottal stops in Rote and its implications for language revitalization programs. A number of phonological, morphological and syntactic evidence confirms that, in most cases, the status of the initial glottal stops can be determined; some are epenthetic, while others are contrastive. The difference between the two is evident in specific environments. Only a few instances are found in which the data are ambiguous. The data from Rote shows that a unitary analysis of the word-initial glottal stops is not possible. Thus, the status of such glottal stops needs to be carefully considered in orthography design for Rote languages to avoid underrepresentation or overrepresentation, which may lead to issues in the learnability of the orthography. This study contributes to (i) the exploration of variation and universality of prevocalic initial glottal stops, especially in Eastern Indonesian languages, and (ii) the orthography development of languages in Rote and the neighboring languages as an effort to language revitalization.

Following Indigeneity to unbuild inequities in teaching for multilingualism: restoring relationship with the Land

ABSTRACT This theoretical article explores how Land-based education could help decolonize language education, starting from the case of dual language bilingual education (DLBE) in the United States. We invoke other scholars’ metaphor of basements versus boutiques to understand how such programs have often either been colonially marginalized into basements or colonially gentrified by middle-class White students. We extend this DLBE problematic beyond and beneath the human-made buildings implied in the basements and boutiques metaphor toward the decolonizing potential Land offers. We analyzed relevant literature on Indigenous language and culture revitalization programs in North America, calling on their expertise and leadership in how to center Land-based thinking and ways of knowing across DLBE. We argue that Land-based pedagogy’s critiques of settler colonialism and Mother Earth’s destruction by humans can help DLBE expand its equity focus toward societal transformation that goes beyond human-centered and language-centered thinking. We theorize what it would mean to bring Land to the heart of non-Indigenous DLBE programs, including six actionable recommendations for a Land-based reframing of DLBE that can further unbuild the coloniality of basements and boutiques.

Participatory sociolinguistics across researchers’ and participants’ language ideologies

ABSTRACT The participatory approach is becoming more widespread in the social sciences and is also starting to take hold in the study of language in society. However, there has been little research done on how critical sociolinguistics can be linked to research that is based on the involvement and engagement of as many participants as possible at a level they find relevant for themselves. We argue that the academic separation between the ‘researcher’ and the ‘researched’ is worth reexamining in sociolinguistic research, as all participants do ’ideologizing work’ that establishes the perspective from which they view language. We discuss this through a case study from Moldavia, the North-Eastern region of Romania, which aimed to explore the contemporary language practices of former students of a Hungarian-language revitalization program. We point out that being critical of language-related inequalities cannot be separated from being critical of participation in the research process, if we are to work together across a multiplicity of language ideologies.

Polemic of stakeholders’ objectives in the decision of revitalization and relocation of the Sukawati traditional market as the most distinguished art market in Bali, Indonesia

Sukawati Art Market is one of the distinguished art markets in Bali for decades, which is also close to the Sukawati Public Market. The government is making efforts to revitalize the Sukawati Public Market to become the Sukawati Art Market, while the Sukawati Public Market is being relocated to a new location far from settlements. So that during the two years of the market revitalization and reallocation program it was quiet and triggered the emergence of traders around the old market area which disturbed public order. The purpose of this research is to analyze the polemic of stakeholders objectives regarding the Sukawati Market revitalization and relocation program, using MACTOR analysis. The results of the analysis show that local government, village government, and custom village are regulatory actors, while traditional markets' sellers are the main target of the project and serve as mediation to other actors. Actors still have polemic interests, especially traders outside the market. Therefore the local government needs to control, educate, and make innovation to facilitate the sellers around outside the traditional market. The revitalization program and market relocation are successful, the traditional markets’ sellers return to selling, and the market will be busy again.

Children's Literacy Activities as a Realization of the School Library Revitalization Program at SDN 1 Moyoketen, Tulungagung Regency

Currently, the use of devices in children is increasing, accompanied by a decrease in literacy rates. From the results of the study, the level of literacy in children is quite low. To increase interest in reading in children not only requires the role of parents, but the place where they go to school also takes an important role in improving children's literacy. Low literacy of children can be overcome by carrying out various activities regarding literacy itself. Another alternative that can be done is to hold a literacy program in the school library. It aims to assist children in improving and growing their reading literacy as well as the realization of revitalization. This activity took place from July to August at SDN 1 Moyoketen. With the literacy program and library revitalization, it is hoped that it can make students more interested in visiting the library and reading the collections contained in the school library

Perceptions of Agricultural Commodity Traders on the Effectiveness of the Traditional Market Revitalization Program in Bengkulu City

Revitalization is an alternative path that must be taken by traditional markets in order to compete in the globalization era. The role of traditional markets will continue to be degraded and reduced if adequate facilities are not immediately repaired. This is due to the increasing number of modern markets emerging so that with the revitalization, it is expected that traditional markets can compete with modern markets. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the traditional market revitalization program in Bengkulu City and its relationship to revenue, number of consumers, working hours, and user fees. This research was conducted intentionally with the purposive sampling method. Respondents in the study amounted to 55 people spread over three traditional markets in Bengkulu City, namely Panorama Market, Minggu Market, and Barukoto Market. The results of the study show that the overall revitalization program for traditional markets in Bengkulu City is quite effective. Based on correlation analysis, variable acceptance, number of consumers, and working hours have a positive correlation to the effectiveness of the traditional market revitalization program in Bengkulu City. Meanwhile, another variable, namely user fees, has no correlation with the effectiveness of the traditional market revitalization program in Bengkulu City.

IMPLEMENTASI PROGRAM TEACHING FACTORY (TEFA) BERBASIS UNIT PRODUKSI UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KOMPETENSI KEWIRAUSAHAAN SISWA DI SMK KEPARIWISATAAN BANDUNG RAYA

Problems related to changes in the structure of employment opportunities in the era of the industrial revolution 4.0 and the existence of competency gaps faced by vocational schools in the field of tourism today. The SMK revitalization program that is currently running has a very important role as an effort to prepare SMK graduates to become skilled workers who are ready to work in various economic sectors such as agriculture, industry, tourism, and even the creative economy. This program also answers problems related to the preparation of superior human resources to process economic potential spread throughout Indonesia. The Teaching Factory is part of ten steps to revitalize vocational schools launched by the government, but it feels not optimal. This phenomenon arises so that vocational schools in the tourism sector can implement teaching factory programs in accordance with project-based learning. The research method uses a quantitative approach with secondary data collection techniques such as questionnaires and interviews. In addition, data collection in the form of tourism education curriculum is a source of data in primary data collection techniques. The analysis method uses quantitative content, exploratory, and descriptive analysis. The findings are expected to be able to answer the targets of this study which includes identifying the distribution of the SMK Tourism teaching factory management program in Bandung City based on project based learning to increase entrepreneurial interest of SMK students.

Intentional Design of Marketplace Revitalization Program: Outcome Mapping For The Case of The Banjaran Market

Marketplace revitalization is a solution from the government and related stakeholders to maintain the existence of the declining traditional marketplace. One of the Indonesian marketplaces that intervened with the revitalization program for this case study is Banjaran Market, in Bandung Regency, West Java which aims to improve infrastructure performance and the socio-economic development of its surrounding community. The complexity and expected behavioral changes in the marketplace revitalization program need to be simplified to be easily understood by the implementing team, beneficiaries, and donors via Outcome Mapping analytical method. This study started by collecting qualitative data, then focusing on Step Zero and the Intentional Design stage to establish the vision, identify boundary partners, state outcome challenges, and conceptualize strategies that influence boundary partners’ behavioral changes. The results show that the Banjaran Market merchant association is the boundary partner of the revitalization program, with the expected behavioral change indicated by ‘relationship’ in the form of openness, not hindering program implementation, which in turn builds the community and business management capacity, according to the regional government and medium-term development plans. This study is accustomed to be an evaluation of other marketplace revitalization programs in Indonesia, for inclusive and sustainable community engagement and development.

‘Downtown mosaics’ in revitalisation district in Szczecin (Poland). Reflections on the project

One of the most degraded areas of Szczecin is the city center with its three housing estates: Centrum, Śródmieście Zachud and Turzyn. The City Hall has been running a revitalisation program for this area since 2017. OSWAJANIE SZTUKI Association, which has been running the ŚRODEK Śródmiejski Punkt Sąsiedzki since 2018, located in the area covered by revitalisation, is implementing the artistic and social project ‘Downtown mosaics.’ The aim of the project is to create art objects in a degenerated semi-public space and to improve the attractiveness of places that the inhabitants of the area consider unattractive and/or dangerous. Mosaics are created in cooperation with local artists, urban activists and city residents in the courtyards of tenement quarters, outside the main walking trails. Designers present proposals for three mosaics, but the final choice is made by the residents of the nearest residential buildings or the direct owner of the facility. So far, five mosaics have been created on various topics – from ‘Cosmos’ behind the former Kosmos cinema to ‘Reading room’ on the garage wall of the owner of an informal antique shop. In addition to actively joining the mosaic, the residents can provide the material for the mosaic – e.g. tiles left over from home renovation. The mosaics became an attraction not only for the closest residents, but also met with a very positive reception from all Szczecin residents who began to visit the dark corners of the city center. The article presents the process of creating neighbourly mosaics in the spirit of participatory art.

Analisis Penerapan ISO 9001: 2015 pada PT KAI: Sebuah Tinjauan Literatur Naratif

The purpose of writing this article is a narrative literature review of 3 (three) articles that discuss the analysis of the implementation of ISO 9001: 2015 at PT. Kerta Api Indonesia (PERSERO) to identify and summarize previously published articles without any criticism for the articles being reviewed. The review results show that PT. Kereta Api Indonesia describes the management of railroad asset documents based on ISO 9001: 2015 concerning Quality Assurance Systems in supporting the revitalization program of several railroads in Indonesia. In the process of revitalizing the rail line, of course, documents are needed as the main reference. Asset documents used in the railroad track revitalization activities are documents in the form of technical drawings, asset ownership documents, and cartography. The data used in this research is primary data, obtained from participatory observation in 2019, in-depth interviews, and a review of document asset document management activities. Along with the development of increasingly advanced industry, companies are also required to provide the best quality in the products and services they produce but do not forget the environmental impacts that occur from all company activities. In the era of globalization, the challenge for an institution, both government and private, is the ability to guarantee customer or work partner satisfaction. Likewise with the State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) PT. Kereta Api (Persero). The conclusion obtained is that asset document management on the basis of ISO 9001: 2015 has an important role in supporting the railroad revitalization program in Indonesia. This is because in revitalizing the railroad, guidelines are needed to reconstruct the structure of the railroad when the track was still actively used. If the asset documents are damaged, both physically and in terms of information, then the reconstruction process will require more money and take longer.

Analisa Sarana Prasarana Bangunan: Studi Kasus Pasar Rakyat Krueng Geukueh, Aceh Utara

The people's market which is the center of economic activity has the potential to drive the economy based on the people's economy, therefore it is necessary to make physical improvements to the people's market which was previously carried out a market analysis to maintain it. The government planned a market revitalization program, but many failed. Krueng Geukueh People's Market is one of the markets that has been built by the government but not according to existing standards. The purpose of this study was to determine the facilities and infrastructure 27 aspects of the criteria for SNI requirements for people's markets. The condition of this market infrastructure is not in accordance with the provisions of the people's market SNI, because some indicators of existing market facilities and infrastructure have not functioned as intended. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method. In collecting data used field observation, survey documentation. The results showed that the aspects of the people's market requirements studied were not effective for use by traders

Spatial Pattern of Urban Heat Island to Enhance Urban Cooling Ecosystem Services in the Post-Pandemic Era

Urbanization, followed by reduced green space, often leads to increased land surface temperatures (LST), which is also known as the urban heat island (UHI) effect. Urban cooling ecosystem services provided by forests and parks play a crucial role in reducing the UHI effect (which is reflected in LST) and improving the liveability and sustainability of cities. The pandemic has changed many people’s views about the importance of ecosystem services to their well-being. The post-pandemic era is a turning point for infrastructure and environmental improvements to increase ecosystem services’ benefits. This study aims to look at the potential for increasing ecosystem services’ benefits through the provision of urban forests and parks based on UHI conditions in Surakarta city. In this study, UHI was identified from LST based on Landsat 8 and Landsat 9 remote sensing images. The spatial pattern of the UHI was analyzed based on block units using road boundaries using cluster and outlier statistical spatial analysis. In formulating alternatives to provide urban forests and parks, we also interviewed stakeholders from a village revitalization program in Kampung Mojo, Surakarta city. The results show that after the pandemic, in a revitalized neighborhood, the surface temperature was still high. The revitalization program did not include the provision of parks because the basic issue of this program is land ownership legality. Nevertheless, the UHI spatial pattern provides evidence that the provision of urban forests and parks is needed on the central and southern sides of Surakarta city to enhance urban cooling ecosystem services.

The nexus between stakeholders’ role, eco-empowerment, and community perceptions on mangrove ecosystem management’s sustainability

Managing coastal ecosystem resources and mangrove forests in Sayung District, Demak Regency faces many challenges if it does not involve the community’s active role and stakeholders. Ecological empowerment faces the abrasion, erosion, and sedimentation of coastal areas that mangrove stands have not covered. On the other hand, the revitalization and rehabilitation program is still not optimal, so it requires the participation of many institutions, not only from the government but also from non-government, so that all management programs run in tandem are integrated and is following regulations. This study aims to determine the relationship between the role of stakeholders, eco-empowerment, and community perceptions of the sustainability of mangrove ecosystem management. The location selection used the purposive method. While the sample selection used the purposive and snowball random sampling methods. Data analysis used the partial least square method. The study’s results indicate that the stakeholders’ role has a direct positive and significant impact on eco-empowerment and perceptions of sustainability. Eco-empowerment has a direct positive and significant effect on the perception of sustainability. The role of stakeholders has a positive and indirect influence on the perception of sustainability through eco-empowerment activities.

Studying The Effect of Tourism Revitalization Program : Sustainable Upgrading Slums Settlements of Malang, Indonesia

Consequent of urban poverty is lack of affordable housing in urban areas. It leads to the increasing slum settlements of urban inhabitants living in deprived urban areas. Typically, slum settlements were distress and discomfort aspect on social, economic and environmental. However, policy efforts slum revitalization in Indonesia is observed to have a economic effect on the residents, where revitalization slum area of Tridi subdistrict in Malang become site tourism. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate influence of revitalization slum program refer to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) index on development community, community behavior on environmental and ecosystem-based sustainability. This study uses a qualitative fault tree analysis (FTA) approach in sequence. Data were obtained through observation, surveys, and documentation. The results indicate a considerable built environment discomfort was due to lack of social spaces and poor design of the slum revitalization landscape. This study offers the concept of improvement strategy for slum shall not orientate to merely for beautification but also considering to improve the sustainability of the slum wellbeing.
