Penerapan Pendekatan Keterampilan Proses dalam Pembelajaran Matematika terhadap Kemampuan Pemecahan Masalah pada Peserta Didik Kelas VIII SMP Ddi Sibatua Pangkajene
Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mendeskripsikan pemahaman siswa tentang notasi aljabar melalui kemampuan. Pemahaman dalam penelitian ini berarti kemampuan menerjemahkan (translasi), kemampuan menafsirkan (interpretasi), dan kemampuan untuk melakukan ekstrapolasi (ekstrapolasi). Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif. Subyek penelitian ini adalah siswa kelas 5 di sekolah dasar, terdiri dari 2 siswa dengan kemampuan verbal tinggi yang disebut subjek verbal tinggi (SVT), 1 siswa dengan subjek verbal menengah (SVS), dan 1 siswa dengan subjek verbal rendah (SVR ). Fokus dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mendeskripsikan pemahaman siswa tentang notasi aljabar berdasarkan kemampuan verbal mereka dalam terjemahan, interpretasi, dan ekstrapolasi. Data dikumpulkan dengan melakukan wawancara berbasis uji coba dengan subyek penelitian. Data penelitian divalidasi dengan metode triangulasi, yaitu wawancara dengan menggunakan pertanyaan utama seperti pertanyaan yang tercantum dalam TPNA. Data penelitian dianalisis dengan (a) mempelajari data subjek dan membandingkan data yang diwawancarai untuk mendapatkan data yang valid, (b) melakukan reduksi data dengan membuat abstraksi, (c) mengklasifikasi dan mengidentifikasi data untuk menarik kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa (1) pemahaman notasi aljabar dengan subjek verbal tinggi (SVT): (a) pemahaman simbol yang termasuk dalam pemahaman translate (translasi), (b) memahami konsep simbol tapi Blum mampu membedakan antara simbol dan variabel, (c) mampu menafsirkan makna notasi aljabar (simbol dan tanda) dengan baik; (2) pemahaman notasi aljabar medium verbal subject (SVS): (a) pemahaman simbol yang termasuk dalam pemahaman translate (translasi), (b) mengenali simbol namun belum dapat membedakan simbol dan variabelnya, c) mampu menafsirkan makna notasi aljabar (simbol dan tanda) dengan baik; (3) pemahaman notasi aljabar dengan subjek verbal rendah (SVR): (a) pemahaman simbol yang termasuk dalam pemahaman translasi (translasi), (b) mengenali simbol namun belum dapat membedakan simbol dan variabelnya, c) belum bisa menafsirkan makna notasi aljabar (simbol, variabel, dan tanda) dengan baik.

Abstract
The purpose of the study is to describe the students' understanding on algebraic notation through abilities. The understanding in this study means the ability to translate (translation), the ability to interpret (interpretation), and the ability to extrapolate (extrapolation). This study is a qualitative research. The subjects of this study are 4 fifth grade students in elementary school, consisted of 2 students with high verbal ability called as high verbal subject (SVT), 1 student with medium verbal subject (SVS), and 1 student with low verbal subject (SVR). The focus of this research is to describe the students' understanding on algebraic notation based on their verbal abilities in translation, interpretation, and extrapolation. The data were collected by conducting test-based interview to the research subjects. The research data were validated by conducting triangulation method, namely interview using major questions as the questions stated in TPNA. Research data were analyzed by (a) studying the subject data and comparing interviewed data to obtain the valid one, (b) conducting data reduction by making the abstraction, (c) classifying and identifying the data to draw the conclusion. The results of the study reveals that (1) the understanding of algebraic notation of high verbal subject (SVT): (a) understanding of the symbols included in the comprehension translate (translation), (b) understand the concept of the symbol but Blum was able to distinguish between symbols and variables, ( c) able to interpret the meaning of algebraic notation (symbols and signs) well; (2) the understanding of algebraic notation of medium verbal subject (SVS): (a) understanding of the symbols included in the comprehension translate (translation), (b) recognize symbols but have not been able to distinguish the symbols and variables, (c) is able to interpret the meaning of the notation algebra (symbols and signs) well; (3) the understanding of algebraic notation of low verbal subject (SVR): (a) understanding of the symbols included in the comprehension translate (translation), (b) recognize symbols but have not been able to distinguish the symbols and variables, (c) has not been able to interpret the meaning of algebraic notation (symbol, variable, and marks) well.

Geographical Influences on the Language Skill of Elementary School Students in Lae-Lae Island Makassar City
This article describes how geographic factor influences students\u27 language skill which in this case is the mastery of vocabularies. This study is a quantitative research with sociolinguistic approach. The respondents of this study were elementary school students that live in Lae-Lae Island, Makassar City, and as for the comparison the researcher took other respondents from other elementary schools in urban areas. The researcher selected 30 students from each school. The techniques used in this study were a vocabulary mastery test, observations, and interviews. The data analysis technique is descriptive analysis and independent sample t test. The result indicates that there are significant geographical factors on the students\u27 vocabulary mastery. Elementary students in urban area have higher skill in mastering vocabularies than those in Lae-Lae Island. In addition, the geographical factors also influence the type of their vocabularies mastered by the students. The students from Lae-Lae Island are better in mastering marine vocabularies than those of urban areas
Implementasi Kontrak Bisnis Terhadap Budaya Lintas Negara Di Jepang (Studi Pada Tenants Di Connect House Co., Ltd)
The objective of this research is to describe how to implement the business contract in Japan and the connection with the cross cultural nation from other countries outside from Japan. This research is conducted using pure descriptive qualitative methods or phenomenology approach. This research reveals five steps to contracting as the implementation in Japan as; (1) Creating information, (2) Offer, (3) Negotiation, (4) Accepting, and (5) Completing contract. Afterwards, each country has their own custom, way, and idea which are different in the steps of implementations. Cultural approaches under this study include; (1) Individual vs collectivism to see how people make decision of negotiation; (2) Masculinity vs feminity to see the custom of tenants and company when they have to protect the consideration of contract; (3) Uncertainty avoidance to see how the behavior of people when they have to face ambiguous situation. (4) High vs low context to see how details is the contract. (5) Universalism vs particularism to see the power or position each party in the contract and; (6) internal vs external orientation to see the behavior each parties when they negotiating
