When online courses became the student union: Technologies for peer interaction and their association with improved outcomes during COVID-19.

While a variety of learning technologies are presently available to facilitate student-to-student peer interactions and collaborative learning online, recent research suggests that students’ opportunities to interact with their peers were significantly reduced following the abrupt transition to remote instruction due to coronavirus disease. This raises concerns because peer interaction is known to be a key ingredient in effective online learning environments, and during remote instruction, the primary connection between a student and their identity as a member of a college community would have been online courses. In this study, we investigate whether and how collaborative technologies supported peer interaction, and students’ learning, during remote instruction. Specifically, we used results from a multicampus survey of students and instructors, as well as data from our online learning management system, to explore the use of collaborative tools at a large scale and their associations with student outcomes. Findings indicate that instructors, as was typical before the pandemic, generally favored individual learning activities over collaborative activities during campus closure. But in those situations where collaborative activities were present during remote instruction, triangulation analyses indicate that their use was related to improved performance as measured by instructors’ survey responses, by students’ performance in their courses, and by an increased sense of belonging among students.

Cognitive abilities were evaluated through neuropsychological tests standardized for Colombia, and didactics were explored through semi-structured interviews following categories of teaching, learning and techniques. Cognitive skills were analyzed using descriptive statistics and interviews by categorical triangulation analysis, concluding in important children memory-speed and reduced attention and verbal fluidity, remarkable findings linked to didactics based on the use of learning sheets, repetition, mechanization, while lower results were associated with the use of video and hobbies.

La gobernanza de los Grandes Lagos entre Canadá y Estados Unidos, ¿siempre de común acuerdo?

Our objective is to analyze, from a geopolitical and legal point of view, the main challenges of water governance in the Great Lakes of North America. The analysis is based on an extended bibliographic search and a triangulation analysis of the corpus thus produced. The first part of the text identifies the concerns of riparian populations in recent years. The second presents the challenges of protecting the basin from climate change and political uncertainty. Overall, the text provides a better understanding of the construction of a transnational water governance model based on the community of interests, which seems to leave behind the old Harmon theory of absolute sovereignty. We will finally ask ourselves, if it will be necessary to attribute a new juridical status to this basin to protect these ecosystems from the challenges raised by climate change.

NEWMAN ERROR ANALYSIS (NEA): DETECTION OF STUDENT LEARNING BARRIERS IN PPKM IN MATHEMATICS SUBJECTS

The research aims to analyze students' mistakes in solving straight-line equations and then find the learning barriers experienced during distance learning conducted in the 8th grade of a superior private junior high school in Surakarta City. The research uses qualitative descriptive design with assistive instruments in the form of three straight-line equations material test questions and interview guidelines. Triangulation used is a triangulation method and analysis data is done with the stages of data collection, data reduction, data categorization, presentation and withdrawal of conclusions. Referring to the Newman Error Analysis theory, it is identified that all five types of errors are made by students in solving straight-line equations. The five types of errors are reading errors, comprehension errors, transformation errors, process skill errors, and encoding errors. Student errors that appear to indicate obstacles in learning. The rights that arise are the ownership of mobile phones and unstable internet networks, minimal learning supervision, and the availability of fewer learning resources. The results of this study can be used as a basis for developing a learning medium that can be used and supporting online teaching.

A Governance Framework to Assist with the Adoption of Sensing Technologies in Construction.

Sensing technologies present great improvements in construction performance including the safety, productivity, and quality. However, the corresponding applications in real projects are far behind compared with the academically research. This research aims to discover dominate influence factors in the sensing technologies adoption and ultimately develop a governance framework facilitating adoption processes. The framework is dedicated on general sensing technologies rather than single sensor in previous framework studies. To begin with, the influence factors of sensing technologies and other similar emerging technologies are summarised through a review. Then, a mixed methods design was employed to collect quantitative data through an online survey, and qualitative data through semi-structured interviews. Findings of the quantitative method reveal that the most widely implemented sensing technologies are GPS and visual sensing technology, but they’re still not adopted by all construction companies. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling reveals that supplier characteristics have the highest effect in all influence factors. Qualitative method was adopted to investigate perceptions of construction stakeholders on the major decision-making considerations in the adoption process. Ultimately, a triangulation analysis of findings from the literature review, online survey and interviews resulted in the governance framework development. The overarching contribution of this research focus on the general adoption of sensing technologies rather than the adoption of a specific sensor. Therefore, the governance framework can assist with the decision-making process of any sensing technology adoption in construction.

Review of Juridic Inclusive Education for Autistic Children at SDN 024777 Binjai According to the Permendiknas RI Number 70 Year 2009

Autism is a condition that affects a person from birth or during infancy, which makes him unable to form normal social relationships or communication. Inclusive education is an education system that provides opportunities for all children who have disabilities and have the potential for intelligence and/or special talents to participate in education or learning in an educational environment together with other students. This paper presents the concept of inclusive education from an epistemological perspective. In this study, the formulation of the problem is as follows: What is the right of every child with special needs (autism) to get a proper education according to Permendiknas Number 70 of 2009?; How is the implementation of inclusive education for children with special needs (autism) at SDN No. 024777 Binjai, In this study using a survey method with a qualitative approach. To obtain data, the researcher conducted direct interviews with parents of students (autistic) who are entitled to inclusive education, the Principal of SDN 024777 Binjai, Teacher of SDN 024777 Binjai, who saw the process of children going on until the child reached mature adulthood. To achieve this, every child has the right to a good education, including children with special needs. Employees of the Department of Education and Culture of Binjai City. The data analysis used in this research is triangulation analysis. Those who are different because of the disability, are ostracized, do not get a touch of affection and social contact which means that their existence is not even recognized. The government is amid inclusive education, where inclusive education can place all children (normal children and children with special needs) in a community which is an effort not to separate them from normal society. To provide a deeper understanding of the sources of inclusive education, this paper will present inclusive education in the world of Islamic Epistemology which is a branch of philosophy and examines the estuary of science in which inclusive education is found.

“I am What I ought to Be”: Women Cyberslacking in Ethiopian Public University

Today, the Gen ‘Y’ (born during 1981-1995) is the world’s largest workforce; and they are employed at digitized workplaces. Cyberslacking (personal use of the internet at the workplace) is the new normal for the recently emerged Ethiopian digital workplace and workforce. Globally, enough cyberslacking studies have been conducted on the losses and the gains; however, no study has been done in the Ethiopian context. This investigation explores how far cyberslacking is beneficial for both the organization (university) and its employees (secretaries) in the Ethiopian setting. The research questions were: what attitudes do the female secretaries have towards cyberslacking? What opportunities do the female secretaries gain through cyberslacking? How far does cyberslacking change the lives of female secretaries? Furthermore, do the female secretaries have an addiction to cyberslacking? To this end, mixed-method design (n=45): questionnaire (n=29) and retrospective interview (n=16) were employed. The triangulation analysis concludes four positive dimensions of women cyberslacking in an Ethiopian university setting: the rationales of cyberslacking (advanced communication, free time, energizer, and legitimization); the opportunities of cyberslacking (gathering information, receiving entertainment, contacting family and friends, and getting day today news updates); the changes attributed to cyberslacking (improvement in English communication skill, knowledge base enhancement, job innovation, and creativity, and modernity); and the low addiction level to cyberslacking (‘prone to be addicted’). Finally, the implications for future practice, policy, and research are explored.

Project risk assessment of higher education online learning project during the Covid-19 crisis

This research aims to identify and assess the project risks of online teaching in Indonesian higher education institutions during the COVID-19 crisis. Two analyses have been conducted using the project risk management approach. First, a triangulation analysis based on interviews with 35 online teaching stakeholders was implemented in order to construct a risk breakdown structure to identify major registered risks. Second, a risk assessment calculating the severity score of each registered risk was conducted using an online survey with 125 online teaching participants. The results of these analyses concluded that there were 11 registered risks, with the highest risk exposure in the technological area. In terms of risk criticality, inadequate Internet connection and an inconducive learning environment were selected as the most critical risks with the highest severity scores. These results imply the importance of focussing on the technological risk mitigation and strategy policies to prepare for future online learning projects after the COVID-19 crisis in Indonesia. Keywords: distance learning, online teaching, project risk management, risk breakdown, structure.

Enabling Inclusive Development Concept in Marginalized Settlement Community (Case Study: Kampung Jodipan, Kota Malang)

The era of democratization requires city leaders to change the development paradigm to be inclusive. This is stated in goal number 11 of the SDGs document, "making cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable", so this study tries to look at the concept of inclusiveness in the scope of settlements, especially in marginal settlements. This study takes place in marginal settlements in the Brantas watershed as Kampung Jodipan which was once a slum settlement but now has been transformed into a Kampung tourism. This openness applies the principle of inclusiveness of the Kampung Jodipan. The data of this research were analyzed with descriptive statistics using Factor Analysis and Cross Tabulation, then the data was validated using triangulation analysis. This study aims to highlight the experience of Kampung Jodipan as a marginal settlement that has succeeded in improving Kampung. It was found that the inclusiveness dimensions in Kampung Jodipan were social inclusion and physical inclusion. Socially, the embodiment of the inclusiveness can be seen through the trust of the community and involving the residents in various activities. Meanwhile, the concept of spatial inclusiveness is manifested with the inclusion of basic infrastructure as a means of meeting the daily needs of citizens.

Model Belajar Synchronous dan Ansynchronous Dalam Menghadapi Learning Loss

The restrictions on educational activities were felt by Indonesia because of the Covid-19 pandemic and caused learning loss or failure of understanding in students, forcing the government to open schools again using a synchronous learning model, namely direct face-to-face learning and face-to-face indirect learning called ansynchronous. This research is a case study research that uses qualitative methods, the research object is Lumajang secondary education, the data obtained from observations, interviews and documentation are then analyzed using the triangulation analysis method. The learning model of MAN Lumajang uses a synchronous learning model using the E-Learning application, it's just that it is not optimal so that the impact such as learning loss is still very pronounced with the division of classes twice a week face to face. Meanwhile, SMAN 1 Lumajang uses a synchronous learning model using the MT (Microsoft Team) application, but it is not optimal, so the impact such as learning loss is still felt by dividing classes twice a week face to face. SMKN 1 Lumajang uses an asynchronous learning model using the Google Classroom application, its use is maximized so that the impact such as learning loss is still not felt by dividing classes once a week face to face.

The Impact of the Information and Electronic Transaction Law (UU ITE) on Legal and Social Changes in Society

In principle, the improvement of information and technology systems that are currently developing in the global community, turns out to have a very significant impact on the social and legal system in Indonesia as a whole. This study uses a descriptive method with a qualitative approach and data triangulation analysis, the results of the study explain that the existence of the ITE Law as a new legal product that applies in Indonesia is actually enough to bring changes in the positive legal justice system in Indonesia, although in principle the use of this law is still considered taboo and has not had a tremendous impact on various actions related to the use of information and communication in a very broad scope, advances in information and communication technology also have an impact on the development of legal interactions and social interactions. In addition to making a positive contribution to users, this information technology media also creates a negative side. For this reason, through law number 11 of 2008 concerning information and electronic transactions, various policies and legal justice can be realized evenly and can provide the fairest legal protection for all Indonesian people.

Toward a Triangulated Analysis of Chaotic Systems: Semiconductor and Biotechnology Industries

This paper examines how industry changes through the nonlinear view of chaos theory. Chaos theory implies that a dynamic system is nonlinear. Accordingly, we developed a triangulated analysis constituted by five mathematical approaches, including the BDS test, Hurst exponent, correlation dimension, Lyapunov exponent, and local Lyapunov exponent, to explore industry change as a nonlinear dynamic system. Empirically, we choose to compare the semiconductor industry and the biotechnology industry, using data collected from the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index and the NASDAQ Biotechnology Index. We found and confirmed that both industries evolved in a nonlinear manner, with the semiconductor industry being less unpredictable, more path-dependent, more sensitive to initial conditions, and has more time-paced incremental innovations than the biotechnology industry. We then complement this analysis with historical case studies that in turn leads us to argue that such differences have much to do with the inherent nature of the industries themselves. While the presence of Moore’s Law as a roadmap projects the semiconductor industry into a more predictable path, the distributed nature of biotechnology coupled with the lack of a dominant technology directs the industry towards a system with greater volatilities and nonlinearities.

Civil Law and Juridical Aspects in the Distribution of Marriage Joint Property

In a marriage, there is a mechanism that must be borne by both parties if a divorce has occurred, including the distribution of joint property or what we often know as 'gono gini' assets. This study uses a descriptive method with a qualitative approach and data triangulation analysis, the results of the study explain that the distribution of joint property in marriage is decided based on the Constitution as the legal basis that regulates the mechanism of the divorce process, court decisions require husband and wife to divide their marital property equally. fair and unanimous, because in its stipulations Gono Gini property is an asset that is produced from marriage wealth, the law is absolutely joint property and is used for household purposes, so the conclusion is that the process of dividing joint assets resulting from marriage can be used jointly, but the innate property of each of the proceeds before the legal marriage becomes private property.

Integrated Islamic Learning Model for Children in Conflict with the Law

This study aimed to see the effect of an integrated Islamic learning model that combines general education, religious education, and skills into one Islamic learning model for children in Class II Correctional Institutions. This research employed the qualitative-descriptive approach. The subjects of this study were 21 children in conflict with the law in Class IIA Curup Correctional Institution. The data were collected using a questionnaire, interviews, and documentation with data triangulation analysis techniques. The integrated Islamic learning model combines five activities tailored to the needs of the children in conflict with the law in class IIA Curup Correctional Institution. The five activities were carried out with the help of correctional institution’s stakeholders, religious figures who taught fiqh of worship, teachers of general subjects, police officers who taught civic education, teachers who taught soft skills to make pots, and counselors who conducted individual and group counseling. As a result, All activities provided positive influence. This finding proves that the integrated Islamic learning model can support the children in conflict with the law’s development program.
