ANALISIS MATERI AJAR DARI LAMAN WEB WWW.SCHUBERT-VERLAG.DE UNTUK PEMBELAJARAN MENYIMAK BAHASA JERMAN SISWA SMA

Listening comprehension is a skill that must be mastered because it will be a means in the communication process to get oral information. When listening to German at school, listening comprehension has some obstacles. These include the selection of the appropriate teaching materials to help the pupils to reach the competence and determine the problem with the source of teaching material. But together with the development of information and communication technology the Internet will be the source of the teaching material that can be applied. Some German websites appear. And they offer teaching materials that can help the pupils learn German. Of many types of websites www.schubert-verlag.de is a website which will be a source to get the teaching materials. This website provides free teaching materials and exercises. The teaching materials and exercises are published from the books of Schubert Verlag. The problem with this study is "Whether the teaching materials available on the website www.schubert-verlag.de can be used in the XII class". This work is a descriptive qualitative study. The method of investigation is qualitative method. The result of this work is the teaching materials, which are from the website www.schubert-verlag.de, can be used in the German language. It is convinced with the correspondence of topics between the website and curriculum 2013. And there is also a consistency in the vocabulary and grammar.   Keywords: website, teaching material, listening lessons

Functorial Semantics for the Advancement of the Science of Cognition

Cognition involves physical stimulation, neural coding, mental conception, and conscious perception. Beyond the neural coding of physical stimuli, it is not clear how exactly these component processes constitute cognition. Within mathematical sciences, category theory provides tools such as category, functor, and adjointness, which are indispensable in the explication of the mathematical calculations involved in acquiring mathematical knowledge. More specically, functorial semantics, in showing that theories and models can be construed as categories and functors, respectively, and in establishing the adjointness between abstraction (of theories) and interpretation (to obtain models), mathematically accounts for knowing-within-mathematics. Here we show that mathematical knowing recapitulates--in an elementary form--ordinary cognition. The process of going from particulars (physical stimuli) to their concrete models (conscious percepts) via abstract theories (mental concepts) and measured properties (neural coding) is common to both mathematical knowing and ordinary cognition. Our investigation of the similarity between knowing-within-mathematics and knowing-in-general leads us to make a case for the development of the basic science of cognition in terms of the functorial semantics of mathematical knowing

UPAYA MENINGKATKAN KEPUASAN PENUMPANG MELALUI AIRPORT SERVICE QUALITY DI BANDARA INTERNASIONAL HUSEIN SASTRANEGARA (Survei terhadap Penumpang di Bandara Internasional Husein Sastranegara)

Mengukur kepuasan penumpang di industri penerbangan menjadi semakin sering dan relevan karena penyampaian pelayanan yang berkualitas tinggi sangat penting untuk kelangsungan hidup industri penerbangan. Tingkat kepuasan penumpang di Bandara Internasional Husein Sastranegara dinilai masih kurang baik dikarenakan masih banyaknya penumpang yang memberi keluhan serta memberi ulasan negatif terhadap Bandara Internasional Husein Sastranegara. Oleh sebab itu penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menginvestigasi mengenai pengaruh airport service quality terhadap kepuasan penumpang di Bandara Internasional Husein Sastranegara. Variabel bebas (X) dalam penelitian ini adalah airport service quality yang terdiri dari check in, security, convenience, ambience, basic facilities, dan mobility serta variabel terikat (Y) dalam penelitian ini adalah kepuasan penumpang. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah deskriptif dan verifikatif dengan metode yang digunakan adalah survey dengan teknik explanatory survey. Sampel dalam penelitian ini sebanyak 111 responden yaitu penumpang yang melakukan penerbangan melalui Bandara Internasional Husein Sastranegara dengan teknik yang digunakan adalah systematic random sampling. Teknik analisis data dan uji hipotesis yang digunakan adalah Regresi Linier Berganda. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa variabel airport service quality memberikan pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap kepuasan penumpang di Bandara Internasional Husein Sastranegara. Dimensi yang memiliki pengaruh paling tinggi terhadap kepuasan penumpang adalah check in sedangkan dimensi yang memiliki pengaruh paling rendah adalah basic facilities. Dengan demikian, penelitian ini memperkuat premis-premis yang telah dikemukakan peneliti sebelumnya bahwa terdapat pengaruh yang signifikan antara variabel airport service quality terhadap kepuasan penumpang. Measuring passanger satisfaction in the aviation industry is becoming increasingly frequent and relevant because the delivery of high quality services is critical to the viability of the aviation industry. The level of passenger satisfaction in Husein Sastranegara International Airport is considered still less good because there are still many passengers who give complaints and give negative reviews on Husein Sastranegara International Airport. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the impact of airport service quality towards passenger satisfaction which took place in Husein Sastranegara International Airport. The independent variable in this study is airport service quality (X) which consists of six dimensions; check in, security, convenience, ambience, basic facilities and mobility. The dependent variable in this study is passanger satisfaction (Y). The type of this research is descriptive and verificative with the method used was explanatory survey. The sampel of this study are 111 passangers that taking flight at Husein Sastranegara International Airport with the sampling technique used is systematic random sampling. This research employed multiple regression for data analysis technique as well as hypothesis test. Findings showed that the variable of airport service quality contributed a significant impact on passenger satsfaction in Husein Sastranegara International Airport. Dimension with the highest impact on passenger satisfaction is check in, while dimension with lowest impact is basic facilities. Therefore, this study has reinforced the premises put forward by the previous researchers that there is a significant impact between the variable of airport service quality towards passenger satisfaction
