    The aim of the current study was to examine the interrelations of important work related variables within small New Zealand based hospitality organisations in order to enhance the understanding of factors that contribute to success within these organisations. Of particular interest was the role of employee work environment perceptions (psychological climate) in relation to employee work engagement, intention to leave and organisational citizenship behaviour directed at the organisation (OCBO). Two theoretical models were tested to investigate the expected role of psychological climate. Model 1 was a mediation model wherein work engagement was expected to mediate between psychological climate, and intention to leave and OCBO. Model 2 took an alternative approach in which psychological climate was posed as a moderator of predicted work engagement-intention to leave and intention to leave-OCBO relationships. In total, 177 surveys were included in the data analyses. The results provided full support for Model 1, showing significant relationships between all psychological climate dimensions and work engagement. Work engagement in turn was negatively related to intention to leave and positively related to OCBO. Work engagement mediated the relationships between the psychological climate dimensions and intention to leave and OCBO. Little support was found, however, for Model 2. Although, as predicted, there were negative relationships between work engagement and intention to leave, and intention to leave and OCBO, intention to leave was not found to mediate between work engagement and OCBO. More importantly, no moderation effects were observed for the psychological climate dimensions. No causal inferences may be drawn from the results of this study. Nevertheless, the findings do suggest that psychological climate has an important role to play in determining levels of work engagement, which in turn impacts on employee intentions to leave their jobs and to voluntarily demonstrate behaviours that can enhance organisational effectiveness. Additionally, the negative correlations between intention to leave and OCBO indicate that employees who are seriously entertaining the idea of exiting the organisation may reduce their levels of OCBO. It is suggested that owner/managers of small hospitality organisations actively focus on modifying aspects of the work environment that are likely to promote favourable work environment perceptions and positively shape employees work-related affective-cognitive state

Therefore, it is necessary to apply ICT-based learning as well as to optimize the Critical Thinking ability of the students. One of the learning method in the 21st century is the Project Based Learning based ICT. The purpose of this study is to solve the problem concerning the are still low quality of Critical Thinking students as well as the problems faced by lecturers who teach in universities in Batam.This is a quasi-experimental research that want to find out the efectivenes of Project Based Learning bsed ICT towards Criical Thinking of EFL students in Batam. An eexperimental class is given a treatment used Project Based Learning based ICT with critical thinking theory. Then, control class is given a treathment used conventional method with critical thinking theory Then the researcher calculated the data using the normality test. The normality of control class L observed <L table (0.099 <0.165) and in the experimental class (0.133 <0.162). Thus, it can be concluded that all data is normally distributed. Then the homogeneity test is conducted where F observed is <F table (1.20 <1.88. So it can be concluded that all data is homogeneous. The last is the hypothesis test where T observed> T table (7.50> 2.00). Therefore, it can be concluded that the proposed hypothesis is accepted. Thus Project Based Learning based ICT method has a significant influence on the Critical Thinking ability of EFL students in BatamPenelitian ini dilatar belakangi oleh hasil temuan tim peneliti dan studi terdahulu yang menunjukkan bahwa masih rendahnya kualitas Critical Thinking mahasiswa.Oleh karena itu diperlukan teknik pembelajaran yang berbasis ICT yang dapat diterapkan kepada mahasiswa pekerja Industri sekaligus mampu mengoptimalkan kemampuan Critical Thinking mahasiswa tersebut.

Kelas experimen akan diberikan perlakuan yaitu teori critical thinking, dengan menggunakan teknik Project Based Learning berbasis ICT dan pada kelas kontrol akan diberikan teori critical thinking tanpa menggunakan teknik tersebut. Selanjutnya, tim peneliti melakukan penghitungan data dengan menggunakan uji normalitas dimana pada kelas kontrol Lobserved < Ltable (0.099 < 0.165) dan pada kelas eksperimen (0.133 < 0.162) sehingga dapat disimpulkan bahwa semua data terdistribusi normal. Kemudian dilakukan uji homogenitas dimana Fobserved < Ftable (1.20 < 1.88) sehingga dapat disimpulkan bahwa semua data homogen. Terakhir adalah uji hipotesis dimana Tobserved > Ttable (7.50 > 2.00) sehingga dapat disimpulkan bahwa hipotesis yang diajukan diterima. Dengan demikian, metode pembelajaran Project Based Learning berbasis ICT ini memberikan pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap kemampuan Critical Thinking mahasiswa EFL di Batam

    THE EFFECTIVENESS OF SEMANTIC MAPPING AS PREWRITING ACTIVITY IN ARGUMENTATIVE WRITING

    Get PDF
    At present, the ability to write scientifically becomes an important skill mastered by students. Students need to have good writing skills using reasoning and logic that focuses on what must be believed or done based on mechanisms, such as doing conceptual analysis and arguments for problem solving and decision making. The concept of semantic mapping is an effective strategy to improve student writing skills. This study explores the effectiveness of the concept of semantic mapping in the development of students' writing skills in essay writing. This study was classified into a quasi-experimental design. In this study the population is students of Universal Batam University who are registered in the 2018-2019 academic year. The instrument of this research is a writing test. Data were analyzed with several analyzes, namely normality testing, homogeneity testing, and hypothesis testing. In testing the research hypothesis, the researcher used the t-test for the related sample and the Wilcoxon test. Based on the analysis it was found that the average score of students in the pre test was 7.89 and the average score of the students in the post test was 12. T-score count is t = 3.83 and a significant standard of 0.05. While t table is only 2,306. Because t count is greater than t table (tobserved> t table), so the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected and the alternative hypothesis (Hi) is accepted. So, based on these results, it was concluded that there was a statistical difference between the pre-test at the 0.05 level. This means that learning argumentative writing based on the theory of semantic mapping has a significant influence on students' argumentative writing skills.At present, the ability to write scientifically becomes an important skill mastered by students.
