Penggunaan Metode Dramatisasi dalam Pembelajaran Sejarah untuk Internalisasi Nilai Kepahlawanan melalui Media Audio Visual

This study aimed to describe the use of dramatization method of teaching history to internalize the values ​​of heroism through audio-visual media in Senior High School 1 mempawah Hilir. The method in this research is descriptive research type development, naturalistic qualitative approach and analysis of qualitative data. The conclusions of this research is the finding that the method of dramatization through audio-visual media is a good method of teaching history to internalize the values ​​of heroism to the learners. In particular there is (1) tips dramatization methods such tactics, design and validation of the product, (2) scenes of the film (audio-visual media) is selected to build the value of heroism (3) learning scenario consists of matrix components Learning, tables of content, prescription task of learning, story board, and a flow chart heroism. (4) The expression feeling learners be moved, compassion, sadness, sympathy, heartbreaking, brave, so evocative of the feelings and the real work is revealed because this method. Researchers suggest that high school using such methods or special media dramatization method with audio-visual media

Systems success measurement: instrument & framework a new perspective

There are major concerns regarding the previous research that can be said as having poor measurements, lack of theoretical grounding, and concern heavily on investment justifies. Some are also considered as having weak survey instruments, inappropriate data collection approaches, and lack of agreement on the dependent variables measurement that resulted in its incompatibility. Several related issues pertaining to high rates of systems’ failure that justify the heavy investment costs and affect the systems’ success of measurement. This matter had raised a high concern, especially for the researchers, practitioners, organization managers and systems administrators. Thus, the successful measurement of any systems is vital. The purpose of this study is to provide a framework and a high-quality validated instrument based on the literature review and experts’ validation. Subsequently, it can be used in the future studies to efficiently assist in the systems’ success measurement. The statistical test of 344 users with the smart PLS for the instrument shows an excellent result

Nias-mukalla web based systems success measurement and students satisfaction evaluation based on security factor of systems quality engineering theory (ISO 25010) and other factors

Latest studies reported that systems success measure suffers from mix of results and limited models that help in success measurement and evaluation. Because of systems models are domain specific and context related, there is a dire need for taking the measure to other perspectives like using related external factors such as management support or using software engineering theories such as ISO 25010. This study aimed to move the measure from a business perspective to other perspectives. This study investigated NIAS-Mukalla student satisfaction based on security, management support, computer anxiety and usefulness. All these independent variables found to be positively and significantly affected the satisfaction of the users. NIAS-Mukalla students were satisfied with the web-based systems

Performance of Low Cost Alternative Radiant Cooling Panel in Malaysia

Radiant panel cooling is still considered uncommon in Malaysia due to unavailability of local manufacturers with limited architects or engineers who are familiar in the system. The initial construction cost for radiant cooling system may be higher than air system and not forgetting the need for a smaller supplementary air system to dehumidify the air to avoid condensation which is an inherited problem of the system in hot and humid region. Promotion and public awareness is lacking in the country and very much dependable on government demonstration program of green technology application where only a few governments owned building having such system. With the aim of long term energy and cost saving this study looks into the development of custom design and locally assembled low cost radiant cooling panel and how its performance in comparison to its overseas and more expensive counterpart could help in provide alternative cheaper building cooling system. Custom build cooling panels with selected materials were constructed and tested to find out its cooling capacity. Finite Element Method (FEM) software was used to establish a design chart to assist in the design and sizing of the alternative radiant panel for Malaysian residential house. The experiment shows that cooling performance in term of mean surface temperature and its cooling capacity is almost identical to its overseas counterpart. Use of cooling radiant panel with free night cooling of water as its chill water supply shows a significant energy saving potential while at the same time provide an acceptable room thermal comfort. Given the local made product having similar performance and suits local condition the technology could grow and be applied with confidence.       Â

Towards Development a Novel Framework of Web-Based Systems Quality Engineering by the Integration between Information Systems and Software Engineering Theories: Context of Higher Education

Nowadays systems failure is the dominant of current research in the fields of information systems and software engineering. The rate of systems fails, and dissatisfying users are high with a lack of appropriate framework that can be used as a success measure in the context. With mix of the results in systems success measure. The organization is in need for a well-defined engineered framework to assist in the success measure of web-based systems. Yemeni south region's universities are facing the problem (dissatisfying users, justifying the cost of implementing systems and measuring its success). This study aims to propose the characteristics of a quality framework suitable for such a purpose and context of developing a novel systems quality framework based on adapting Delone & Maclean 2003, ISO 25010 and Tam to measure the success and quality of these web-based systems. Researchers validated the framework and instrument via 8 academic specialized lecturers in systems and software engineering from (Malaysia, Yemen and India). Researchers then confirmed the translated questionnaire (English to Arabic and back to back translation) with an authorized translation company. Before starting the pilot study, pre-test has been conducted with nine respondents to see if there is any doubts or unclear syntax, everything was OK. Pilot results showed an excellent result

Investigation of earth tube system application in low income building in Kuching, Sarawak

Modern residential building in Malaysia particularly in Sarawak rarely consider the ground as a source of heat sink to cool down the building. This is probably due to the lack of information on surveyed ground temperature and energy modelling of such building. A typical low income residential building in Sarawak with earth tube was modelled in Energy Plus to determine the effect of earth tube to passively cool the building in Sarawak. From the simulation result, the indoor air temperature of the east facing zone of the building could be lowered from 33°C to 29.5°C. A further drop of about 0.6°C could be achieved if the room volume served by the earth tube is reduced. The PMV of the building were greatly reduced from 3 to 1.5 on a thermal sensation scale. The operative temperature is within 80% acceptability limits of 30.3°C operative temperature as per ASHRAE Standard 55 for naturally conditioned spaces. © School of Engineering, Taylor’s University
