KORELASI ANTARA MOTIVASI DENGAN HASIL BELAJAR PENDIDIKAN KEWARGANEGARAAN KELAS III SDN 34

AbstractThis study aims to analyze the correlation between motivation and learning outcomes of class III Citizenship Education public Elementary School 34 Central Pontianak. The variables in this study consist of independent variables (X), namely the motivation of students while the dependent variable (Y) is the learning outcomes of students in Civics Education lessons. This research uses descriptive method with a form of research that studies relationships. This study is a sample study with 64 people being the object of research taken using Probability sampling technique with a simple random sampling type Data collection techniques in this study is the indirect communication techniques and techniques of documentary studies. The results show the motivation of learners in public elementary school 34 in Central Pontianak classified is in excellent is 96.85%, and the learning outcomes of students in Civics Education lessons obtained an average value of 84.29 is very good because it is included in the range of 80-100 . The results of statistical calculations using the product moment correlation formula obtained the result of r count of 0,150 while r table 0,244 this means r count <r tebel or (0,150 <0,244) at 65% confidence level for N = 64. Based on the results of the study by using hypothesis testing the analysis of product moment motivation with student learning outcomes showed that the two variables did not have a positive correlation with the level of correlation including very low correlation. Keywords : Motivation, Learning Outcomes, Citizenship Education

Biological aspects of orthodontic tooth movement: A review of literature

This review of literature describes the cellular and molecular biology of orthodontic tooth movement, including various theories and effect of chemical mediators on tooth movement. The better understanding of the tooth movement mechanism will inspire the clinicians to design and implement effective appliances that will result in maximum benefits and minimum tissue damage to the patients. This paper also emphasizes the applied aspect of different medication and hormones, during orthodontic treatment, on the signaling molecules which produce bone remodeling.

Adjoining a Constant Function to n-Dimensional Chebyshev Space

This paper is concerned with extending a Chebyshev system of n continuous nonconstant functions into a set of n+1 functions including a constant function. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the new set to be a Chebyshev system are discussed and some results are obtained

Dental students' perceptions of an online learning

Objectives: To identify the readiness of students for online learning, to investigate their preference and perception, and to measure the quality of online tutorials. Materials and methods: A 14-statement questionnaire was administered to fourth year undergraduate dental students in male campus at King Saud University who completed preclinical orthodontic course. The students responded to each statement by using Likert scale. Results: The results reveal a high agreement of students (27.8–31.5% agree and 38.9–50% strongly agree) on a possession of necessary computer skills and access to internet. 59.2% and 64.8% of the students replied that online flash lectures and procedural videos were helpful to their learning, respectively. With respect to students' learning preferences, few students preferred online flash lectures (31.5%) and procedural videos (17.1%). Most students (38.9% agree and 31.5% strongly agree) preferred a combination of traditional teaching methods and online learning. Conclusion: Overall, student attitudes were positive regarding online learning. The students viewed online learning helpful as a supplement to their learning rather than a replacement for traditional teaching methods.

Determinants of quality of corporate voluntary disclosure in emerging countries: a cross national study

The generalisability of much published research on corporate voluntary disclosure is problematic because there are many corporate and country level factors related to corporate voluntary disclosure: these factors have mainly been investigated in developed countries. Corporate voluntary disclosure is the disclosure of more corporate information than is legally required. Much research has focused on determinants of the quantity of corporate disclosure, while few studies have researched determinants of the quality of corporate voluntary disclosure. Quantity of corporate voluntary disclosure is measured by merely disclosing a particular item of information, whereas provision of additional information about a particular item that qualifies the level of the disclosure determines the quality of corporate voluntary disclosure. The limited research to date has not proven whether determinants of the quantity of corporate voluntary disclosure may also explain the variation of quality of corporate voluntary disclosure.Moreover, many of the existing studies of determinants of corporate voluntary disclosures are from developed countries. However, according to New Institutional Theory and Resource Dependency Theory, these results many not be applicable in developing countries. Finally, there are few cross-countries studies examining the quantity of corporate voluntary disclosure studies, and even fewer prior cross-countries studies on the quality of corporate voluntary disclosure particularly. It is the belief of the current research that the relationships between the quality of corporate voluntary disclosure and national legal systems, the financial expertise of directors, and audit committees have not previously been studied. Consequently, this thesis sought to examine factors relating mainly to the quality of corporate voluntary disclosure in ten developing countries: Turkey, Singapore, Malaysia, India, Ghana, Nigeria, South Africa, Brazil, Mexico and Chile. Unambiguously, the thesis interest was to examine how firm level factors are related to the quantity and quality of voluntary disclosure, as shown in annual reports. Also, it analyses how country level factors are associated with the quantity and quality of voluntary disclosure. New Institutional Sociology, Resource Dependence, and Agency theories have been used to explain these relationships.Methodologically, the quality and quantity of corporate voluntary disclosure was extracted from 600 corporate annual reports, taken from 300 randomly selected companies from 10 countries for the years 2011 and 2012. Then, an un-weighted corporate voluntary disclosure index measured both the quality and quantity of corporate voluntary disclosure. Results from multiple linear regression models show that share diffusion ownership was positively related to the quantity of corporate voluntary disclosure, as were the country level of press freedom, accounting professionalism and tertiary education. Share diffusion ownership, and country level of accounting professionalism, were negatively related to the quality of corporate voluntary disclosure. However, being audited by the big four auditing firms, and country level of tertiary education disclosure, were positively correlated with the quality of corporate voluntary disclosure. The results of percentage of audit committee on board directors, the percentage of board directors who have financial expertise, and the percentage of independent board directors were not related to either the quality or quantity of corporate voluntary disclosure. These results imply that regulators should focus their enforcement efforts on corporate bodies who are likely to have limited voluntary disclosure, to reduce enforcement costs. This means that governments, regulatory bodies and industrial associations should ensure that there is press freedom, professionalism, economic development and high educational levels in order to motivate corporations to disclose corporate information voluntarily.This thesis contributes to the literature in four main ways, through its investigation of the quality of corporate voluntary disclosure, contextually, its reconciliation of contradictory previous results and its offering of policy implications for regulators.<br/
