PENGARUH PENERAPAN PERMAINAN SOFTGAME TERHADAP PENINGKATAN PERILAKU SOSIAL SISWA DI EKSTRAKURIKULER TAEKWONDO SISWA SMP NEGERI 1 LEMBANG

Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi kurangnya sikap, perilaku, dan nilai-nilai sosial siswa yang ditunjukkan di ekstrakurikuler Taekwondo siswa SMP Negeri 1 Lembang. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui seberapa besar peningkatan perilaku sosial siswa pada kelompok penerapan permainan softgame dan kelompok kontrol serta perbedaan peningkatan perilaku sosial siswa pada kedua kelompok tersebut. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah eksperimen dengan instrumen penelitian berupa angket perilaku sosial. Penelitian ini dilakukan di lapangan olahraga SMP Negeri 1 Lembang. Adapun subjek penelitian yang diambil adalah siswa yang mengikuti ekstrakurikuler Taekwondo berjumlah 30 orang yang terdiri dari lima belas orang pada kelompok eksperimen dan lima belas orang pada kelompok kontrol. Dalam penelitian ini menggunakan “Pretest-Posttest Control group design”. Berdasarkan hasil angket dan analisis pengujian signifikansi, perlakuan penerapan permainan softgame yang diberikan berpengaruh secara signifikan terhadap perilaku sosial siswa. Sedangkan pada kelompok kontrol perlakuan yang diberikan tidak berpengaruh terhadap perilaku sosial siswa. Dengan begitu perlakuan permainan softgame yang diberikan berpengaruh secara signifikan terhadap perilaku sosial siswa dibandingkan dengan perlakuan pada kelompok kontrol. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dan hasil analisis data, maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa: 1. Terdapat peningkatan perilaku sosial siswa melalui perlakuan permainan softgame. 2. Tidak terdapat peningkatan perilaku sosial siswa pada kelompok kontrol. 3. Permainan softgame lebih meningkatkan perilaku sosial siswa dibandingkan dengan kelompok kontrol. ;---The background of this research was by studying the lack of attitude, behavior, and social values of students shown in extracurricular Taekwondo in SMP Negeri 1 Lembang. The purpose of this research was to determine how large an increase in the social behavior of students in the application of soft game group and the control group and the differences in the increased social behavior of students in both groups. The methods used in this research is experimental research instruments such as questionnaires of students social behavior. This research was carried in the sports field of SMP Negeri 1 Lembang. The research subjects were taken are students who take extra Taekwondo were thirty people consisting of fifteen in the experimental group and fifteen in control group. This research used "Pretest-Posttest Control group design". Based on the results of the questionnaire and the analysis of significance testing, the soft game application significantly affect the social behavior of students. Whereas in the control group had no effect on students social behavior. So, the soft game application given to students significantly affect the social behavior of students compared to the group control application. Based on the results of the research and the results of the analysis of the data, it can be concluded that: 1. There is a growing social behaviour of students through soft game treatment. 2. There is no increase in the social behavior of the students in the control group. 3. Soft game affect the students social behavior more compared to the control group

Compact wideband bandpass filter using single corners-cut isosceles triangular patch resonator

Compact and simple bandpass filter (BPF) structure using microstrip isosceles triangular patch resonator (ITPR) is proposed. The new filter design technique is based on two main ideas: Firstly, cutting the corners of the triangular structure, to make the filter size more compact. Secondly, etching slit in staircase form near the base of the triangle in order to improve the filter performances. The proposed filter was designed and fabricated on Taconic CER-10 substrate with a relative dielectric constant of 10 and a thickness of 0.64 mm using standard photolithography process. The final dimension of the proposed filter is measured at 5.7 mm×7.6 mm. Measured S-parameters showed that the filter achieves a 3-dB fractional bandwidth of 55% at center frequency of 10.36 GHz, with measured insertion loss of 2.08 dB and measured return loss better than 10 dB. The measured results are in good agreement with the simulated results

MODEL PEMBELAJARAN KONTEKSTUAL UNTUK MENINGKATKAN PENGUASAAN KONSEP DAN PEMBELAJARAN OPERASI BILANGAN PECAHAN MAHASISWA

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kehandalan model pembelajaran kontekstual untuk meningkatkan penguasaan konsep dan pembelajaran operasi bilangan pecahan mahasiswa PGSD FKIP UNS Surkarta Tahun 2010. Penelitian ini mengambil setting semester 3b Program Studi PGSD. Pengumpulan data dengan metode observasi, angket, tes, wawancara dan dokumenter. Analisis data dengan teknik perbandingan tetap, reflektif, interpretatif dan statistik deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa model pembelajaran kontekstual dapat meningkatkan penguasaan konsep dan pembelajaran operasi bilangan pecahan mahasiswa semester 3b PGSD tahun 2010. Peningkatan skor rata-rata pada siklus I, II dan III aspek keaktifan adalah 48,2 < 60,3 < 77,2; aspek keefektifan siklus I, II dan III skor rata-rata adalah 41,5 < 60,2 < 76,75. Jadi secara konsisten terjadi peningkatan dari satu siklus ke siklus berikutnya. Terakhir, disarankan kepada para dosen hendaklah dipertimbangkan penerapan model pembelajaran kontekstual untuk peningkatan kualitas baik proses maupun hasil pembelajaran sesuai mata kuliah yang diampu. Para pembuat kebijaksanaan PGSD, disarankan meningkatkan pemberian fasilitas untuk penerapan berbagai model pembelajaran inovatif, khususnya model pembelajaran kontekstual. Kepada para peneliti disarankan dapat menindaklanjuti temuan hasil penelitian ini dan memperluas bidang kajian. Kepada mahasiswa disarankan hendaknya lebih responsif dan keterlibatan aktif selama proses pembelajaran agar dapat mengoptimalkan prestasi dan pengalaman belajar.

An Empirical Analysis of Short Term Interest Rate Models for Turkey

Interest rate is one of the most observed and forecasted variables in financial markets. Interest rates and the volatility of interest rates play a crucial role in pricing financial instruments. In this empirical study, we try to investigate which short term interest rate model is appropriate for Turkish data. In that regard we use monthly average of the central bank overnight interest rate. The date set covers the period from 1990:01 to 2008:07. We use the generalized method of moments to estimate the model parameters since it does not require a distributional assumption for the interest rate making GMM a robust estimation method comparing to maximum likelihood. Estimation results reveal that Cox Ingersoll Ross square root process and Brennan-Schwartz models perform better. A common feature of these models is that they both have heteroscedastic variances. In the study, we also analyze if the policy changes of Central Bank of Turkey had any effects on the interest rate process. We find that the volatility of the interest rate is not affected by policy change. However, the level of the interest rate is affectedShort term interest rates models, term structure, model comparison, GMM

The relationship between perception of quality and length of service on integrity among Penang civil servant

Malaysia in its effort to become a fully developed nation by 2020 has undertaken a monumental task in instilling noble values into its society including its civil sector. The integrity of the civil servants needs to be greatly improved in order to turn this vision into a reality. This project attempted to examine the level of awareness, knowledge and understanding on noble values particularly integrity among selected civil servants in selected State Government agencies in Pulau Pinang, Malaysia. The respondents were selected based on a purposive sampling technique. The research used a quantitative approach where self-administered structured questions were distributed. Descriptive and inference analysis were carried out to meet the research objectives outlined. The research findings showed that there were civil servants groups who were unclear and uncertain about the meaning of integrity in public sector. Those with shorter length of services were found to be less knowledgeable on the rule and procedure which led to them being unsure about integrity. Length of service was found to be inversely related to the perception on the knowledge of integrity, corruption and quality of service delivery
