Media Massa Dan “Political Literacy”: Pemanfaatan Berita Politik Di Kalangan Remaja

The role of mass media in creating cognitive response concerning input function, conversion process, and political system output is lower than political system capability. This difference is due to two reasons: (1) in teenager's thinking domain, input function, conversion process, and political output are more theoretical-abstract; (2) political news exposure in mass media is more highlighting demanded citizen characteristics as important attributes of political system capability. This means that though teenagers are considered to be important in political domain, political news exposure has not been considering teenagers' psycho-political aspect

Political News and Early Voter Alienation: Why Does Not Political Knowledge Lead Early Voters to Use Their Right to Vote?

Early voters whose backgrounds are senior high school level are believed to possess particular political knowledge. However, this group is suspected to be one of the nests of abstainers. Why does not political knowledge lead them to use their right to vote? To answer this question, a survey had been conducted toward 170 senior high school students in Kota Bandung and an intensive interview had been applied to 10 students. Statistical calculation shows that high correlation degree between political news influence and cognitive conception change of the students, but the degree is low to their political attitude. This discrepancy is caused by political news that is provided in newspaper which indirectly relates to the early voters\u27 need, besides more impressive news diminishing government image than ones discussing election

Primordial Sebagai Basis Identifikasi Kepartaian: Kasus Partai Kebangkitan Bangsa Dalam Pemilihan Umum 1999 Dan 2004

Transformation of primordial loyalty into the political sphere rather than understanding of the substance of the party\u27s platform is a key factor for PKB\u27s (National Awakening Party) devotees to adhere to the party. The platform has not been effectively socialized. The practice of the party has not been believed as a requisite condition to create an order society. On the other hand, adhering to Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) and inclining to submit to orders or wishes of Kiai (Muslim Scholars) is believed among PKB\u27s voters as a means by which a good community is created(khoerul barriyah). Therefore, since the 2004 General Election, Kiai\u27s political communication and orientations have become the partisans\u27 primary roles among PKB\u27s constituents

Keefektifan Online Knowledge Sharing Behavior (Studi Kasus: Blended Learning Itb)

Penerapan blended learning dapat mengintegrasikan manfaat yang diperoleh dari knowledge management dan e-learning. Pendekatan dengan mengombinasikan interaksi tatap muka dan interaksi online ini idealnya mampu meningkatkan kualitas pembelajaran di perguruan tinggi. Salah satu tantangan dalam penerapan blended learning adalah pelaksanaan online knowledge sharing yang konsisten dan berkesinambungan. Penelitian ini berupaya untuk menemukan cara meningkatkan keefektifan Online Knowledge Sharing Behavior (OKSB). Model OKSB pada penelitian ini mengintegrasikan model Knowledge Sharing Behavior dari Chen dkk. (2009) yang berbasis pada Theory of Planned Behavior dengan model Ma dan Yuen (2010) yang berbasis pada teori pengembangan dan pemeliharaan hubungan sosial. Penelitian ini memandang OKSB dipengaruhi oleh faktor intention, self-efficacy, social interaction, serta faktor kepuasan teknologi. Uji empiris dilakukan dengan melibatkan 110 orang mahasiswa peserta kelas blended learning ITB. Pengolahan data dengan menggunakan metode PLS menunjukkan bahwa social interaction yang terdiri dari perceived online attachment motivation dan perceived online relationship commitment menjadi faktor yang paling mempengaruhi OKSB. Namun, penelitian ini tidak mampu membuktikan bahwa knowledge sharing intention memengaruhi OKSB

Comprehensive flood mitigation and management in the Chi River Basin, Thailand

Severe flooding of the flat downstream area of the Chi River Basin occurs frequently. This flooding is causing catastrophic loss of human lives, damage and economic loss. Effective flood management requires a broad and practical approach. Although flood disasters cannot completely be prevented, major part of potential loss of lives and damages can be reduced by comprehensive mitigation measures. In this paper, the effects of river normalisation, reservoir operation, green river (bypass), and retention have been analysed by using integrated hydrologic and hydraulic modelling. Every tributary has been simulated by a process-based hydrological model (SWAT) coupled with the 1D/2D SOBEK river routing model. Model simulation results under the design rainfall event, i.e. flood depth, flood extent, and damages for the situation with and without flood mitigation measures have been compared and evaluated to determine an optimal set of mitigation measures. The results reveal that a combination of river normalisation, reservoir operation, and green river (bypass) is most effective as it can decrease the extent of the 100-year flood event by approximately 24% and 31% for the economic damage. The results of this study will be useful for improving the present flood defence practice in the Chi River Basi

Desain Didaktis pada Konsep Luas Daerah Trapesium untuk Kelas V Sekolah Dasar

Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Kelas V Sekolah Dasar Negeri Cijambe Kecamatan Cibeber Kabupaten Cianjur dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif melalui metode DDR (Didactical Design Research). Dari hasil studi awal, hambatan yang ditemukan menunjukkan adanya ontogenical obstacles, didactical obstacles, dan epistemological obstacles pada pembelajaran trapesium. Fokus analisis berdasarkan teori situasi didaktis, dan hasil analisis ini digunakan untuk pengembangan desain didaktis hipotetik. Desain didaktis hipotetik diimplementasikan untuk melihat bagaimana situasi-situasi didaktis yang berkembang selama pembelajaran dilanjutkan dengan analisis terhadap transkrip video pembelajaran hasil implementasi. Hasil implementasi dianalisis lagi untuk mendapatkan desain didaktis empirik, yang disebut analisis retrosfektif. Desain didaktis empirik yang tersusun terdiri dari tiga pertemuan (lesson design). Lesson design pertama, terdiri dari tiga situasi yang merupakan situasi aksi dan formulasi. Lesson design kedua, terdiri dari dua situasi yang merupakan situasi aksi, formulasi, dan validasi. Lesson design ketiga, terdiri dari empat situasi yang merupakan situasi aksi, situasi formulasi, situasi validasi, dan situasi institusionalisasi

Karakterisasi Koleksi Plasma Nutfah Tomat Lokal Dan Introduksi

An experiment on eighteen genotypes of tomato was conducted at Lembang station (RIV) (1250 m asl) in 1999/2000 planting season to characterize their phenotypic performance, growth type and yield. The experiment was arranged in a Randomized Block Design with 18 two replications. Genotypes tested were introduction and landraces. Phenotypic performance growth type fruit color and productive branch number were realtively uniparm while head of plant, fruit diameter, fruit thick and plant age had were different. Tomato lines FMTT 270, FMTT 22 and FMTT 95 had healthy fruit weight per plant, fruit diameter and good thickness at Lembang highland. Lokereal tomato lines PT 4289, PT 4226, PT 4165, and PT 4121 had earlier harvested, to be further use as breeding material
