Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menilai program, pelaksanaan, evaluasi, dan hambatan guru bimbingan dan konseling di SMA Negeri 1 Banda Aceh. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif. Pengumpulan data menggunakan teknik observasi, wawancara, dokumentasi. Subjek penelitian adalah kepala sekolah, guru bimbingan dan konseling, serta siswa. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan: 1) Program guru bimbingan dan konseling yang dibuat berupa program tahunan,program semester, program bulanan, dan harian RPL telah tersusun dengan baik dan terkomentasi, 2) Pelaksanaan bimbingan telah dilaksanakan sesuai dengan kurikulum dan kasus-kasus yang dihadapi siswa, pelaksanaan program bimbingan dan konseling kegiataan nya mengarah pada bimbingan siswa, 3) Evaluasi yang dilaksanakan oleh guru bimbingan dan konseling disesuaikan dengan kasus yang diselesaikan, di antaranya pelanggaran di siplin seperti terlambat hadir ke sekolah, tidak menggunakan atribut sekolah yang lengkap, dan membawa HP ke sekolah. Evaluasi yang dilaksanakan oleh guru dan bimbingan konseling bersifat kualitatif sesuai dengan permasalahan yang di hadapi siswa, 4) Hambatan yang ditemui guru bimbingan dan konseling, antara lain kurangnya kerja sama dengan wali kelas, pembinaan OSIS dalam penyelesaian permasalahan siswa. Selain itu, kurang nya buku-buku yang terkait dengan permasalahan bimbingan dan konseling di perpustakaan sekolah.Kata Kunci : Manajemen, Guru Bimbingan dan Konseling

Supersymmetry and Dual String Solitons

We present new classes of string-like soliton solutions in ($N=1$; $D=10$), ($N=2$; $D=6$) and ($N=4$; $D=4$) heterotic string theory. Connections are made between the solution-generating subgroup of the $T$-duality group of the compactification and the number of spacetime supersymmetries broken. Analogous solutions are also noted in ($N=1,2$; $D=4$) compactifications, where a different form of supersymmetry breaking arises.Comment: 13 pages, harvmac, (missing references added

String Solitons

We review the status of solitons in superstring theory, with a view to understanding the strong coupling regime. These {\it solitonic} solutions are non-singular field configurations which solve the empty-space low-energy field equations (generalized, whenever possible, to all orders in $\alpha'$), carry a non-vanishing topological "magnetic" charge and are stabilized by a topological conservation law. They are compared and contrasted with the {\it elementary} solutions which are singular solutions of the field equations with a $\sigma$-model source term and carry a non-vanishing Noether "electric" charge. In both cases, the solutions of most interest are those which preserve half the spacetime supersymmetries and saturate a Bogomol'nyi bound. They typically arise as the extreme mass=charge limit of more general two-parameter solutions with event horizons. We also describe the theory {\it dual} to the fundamental string for which the roles of elementary and soliton solutions are interchanged. In ten spacetime dimensions, this dual theory is a superfivebrane and this gives rise to a string/fivebrane duality conjecture according to which the fivebrane may be regarded as fundamental in its own right, with the strongly coupled string corresponding to the weakly coupled fivebrane and vice-versa. After compactification to four spacetime dimensions, the fivebrane appears as a magnetic monopole or a dual string according as it wraps around five or four of the compactified dimensions. This gives rise to a four-dimensional string/string duality conjecture which subsumes a Montonen-Olive type duality in that the magnetic monopoles of the fundamental string correspond to the electric winding states of the dual string. This leads to a {\it duality of dualities} whereby under string/string duality the the strong/weak coupling $S$-duality trades places with the minimum/maximum length $T$-duality. Since these magnetic monopoles are extreme black holes, a prediction of $S$-duality is that the corresponding electric massive states of the fundamental string are also extreme black holes.Comment: 150 pages, TeX, submitted to Physics Reports, 3 figures available on reques

Veneziano Amplitude for Winding Strings

String configurations with nonzero winding number describe soliton string states. We compute the Veneziano amplitude for the scattering of arbitrary winding states and show that in the large radius limit the strings always scatter trivially and with no change in the individual winding numbers of the strings. In this limit, then, these states scatter as true solitons.Comment: 7 page

Learning styles and the selection of majors among Lebanese youth

Learning style preferences and selection of university major data were obtained from a sample of 199 Lebanese high school graduates. These measures and gender were used to assess the relation between the selection of major and learning style preferences. The main assumption was that students who believe they have competencies or ability in a certain area would make choices to pursue activities in these areas in order to develop further these competencies (Holland, 1973). The perceptual and biological development of students’ auditory, visual, tactual and kinesthetic senses appeared to be a key factor in their way of acquiring information. Thus, fitting learning preferences to the specific content knowledge required is with little doubt a very important issue that needs to be addressed by research. This study found that learning style preferences were not homogeneous and were not homogenously distributed across majors. Overall, students indicated a preference for the visual and active learning styles.Females, however, were higher than males on both reflective and verbal styles. Chi-square analyses indicated that each of the six general major areas had distinct learning style attribute profiles that distinguished them from the others. Learning style profiles, therefore, may contribute positively to student selection processes for different majors.peer-reviewe

A Lyapunov Based Approach to Enchance Wind Turbine Stability

This paper introduces a nonlinear control of a wind turbine based on a Double Feed Induction Generator. The Rotor Side converter is controlled by using field oriented control and Backstepping strategy to enhance the dynamic stability response. The Grid Side converter is controlled by a sliding mode. These methods aim to increase dynamic system stability for variable wind speed. Hence, The Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) is studied in order to illustrate its behavior in case of severe disturbance, and its dynamic response in grid connected mode for variable speed wind operation. The model is presented and simulated under Matlab/ Simulink

Practices and Beliefs Relating to Authentic Assessment of Kindergarten Teachers in the Suburbs of Jerusalem

This study aimed at investigating kindergarten teachers’ practices and beliefs relating to authentic assessment. The study also aimed at investigating differences in teachers’ practices and beliefs based on level of education, study major, and length of experience. The sample of the study consisted of (92) teachers working in kindergartens in the suburbs of Jerusalem. Two questionnaires were developed and implemented to collect the data of the study. In addition, individual semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 teachers from the sample of the study. Content analysis of some kindergarten documents was also used. The results showed that worksheets were the main method used to assess children learning, while project-based assessment was not used at all. In addition, the results showed significant differences in the teachers’ utilization of authentic assessment methods relating to level of education and study major, but there were no differences relating to the length of the teachers teaching experience. The teachers showed a strong belief in the importance of authentic assessment methods. The results of the interviews and content analysis supported the findings of the questionnaires. The study concluded a number of recommendations for future research, teacher educators and kindergarten principals
