Penggunaan Learning Management System (Lms) di Perguruan Tinggi: Studi Kasus di Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia
Factors Affecting the Use of the Learning Management System inUniversities (A Case Study in Indonesia University of Education). The purpose ofthis paper is to find out factors that affect the USAge of the Learning ManagementSystem (LMS) in in Indonesia University of Education. Indonesia University ofEducation has been built LMS to support learning processes. The focus is on factorsaffecting the use of LMS in supporting effective and efficient learning processes. Inthis research the writer used Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to find outthose factors. The data were collected using the survey technique and wereanalyzed by means of the multivariate statistic method. The result of this researchconcluded that the factors of Perceived Usefulness (PU), Perceived Ease of Use(PEOU), Intention to Use (ITU), Actual Usage Behavior (AUB) significantly affectedthe effective and efficient use of LMS in supporting learning processes
Hak Azasi Manusia Perspektif Syariah Menurut Abdullah Ahmad Al-na'im
Anthropologically, human's life in the fields of economy, education, culture, politics and behavior is mostly affected by his basic and principal world-view that is believed as high valued truth. Meanwhile, that view is mainly formed by his belief of some values with profane and transcendental dimension. Transcendental values are mostly formed by religious belief. In plural society's life sometimes there are some clashes between world-view and social reality, particularly when they are related with the context of current globalization life. This article discusses hamisasi syari'ah, a study of Abdullah Ahmad al-Naim's thought.ملخص: أنثروبولوجيا، وتتأثر حياة الإنسان في مجالات الاقتصاد والتعليم والثقافة والسياسة والسلوك في الغالب من قبل صاحب الأساسي والرئيسي للعالم التي يعتقد أنها الحقيقة وقيمتها عالية. في هذه الأثناء، يتم تشكيل هذا الرأي أساسا من اعتقاده بعض القيم مع البعد تدنيس والمتسامي. تتشكل القيم المتعالية في الغالب من قبل المعتقدات الدينية. في حياة المجتمع التعددي في بعض الأحيان هناك بعض الاشتباكات بين النظرة إلى العالم والواقع الاجتماعي، وخاصة عندما ترتبط أنها مع السياق الحالي للعولمة الحياة. تتناول هذه المقالة الشريعة حقوق الإنسان، دراسة الفكر عبد الله أحمد النعيم لل
Conservation, Market Pressures and the New Zealand Dairy Sector
The New Zealand dairy industry is a highly organised, globally marketed food production system. In order to remain internationally competitive, the industry has had to adjust to flexible price regimes and the need to achieve greater production efficiencies. At the same time, the dairy industry is based on an agricultural system grounded in ecological and social specifics that can be in conflict with business aspirations. This paper outlines some of the environmental implications of modernising New Zealand’s dairy industry, focusing on the Waikato Region, which has traditionally been a major player in the country’s dairy industry. The authors question whether the dairy industry’s growth projections, which are linked to realising greater production efficiencies, are sustainable in the long run
The socioeconomic dimensions of biosecurity: the New Zealand experience
The human dimensions of biological invasions have recently become the subject of serious study. Current insight suggests that socioeconomic arrangements can foster or restrict the introduction of new species, and create the conditions for alien species to flourish or fail. Conversely, the human response to species invasions varies, according to the economic and environmental impacts of the invasion and the institutional frameworks of the human groups affected. Using the example of New Zealand, the authors chart changes in public perception of introduced species, and assess the socio-political responses to the ecological and economic consequences of introduced and invasive species. The study also outlines the organisational changes that evolved to combat invasive organisms, and suggests that cultural perceptions and socioeconomic experience of benefits and threats have been the prime determinants of public policy on biosecurity. The authors conclude that biosecurity policies in New Zealand are primarily the outcome of a complex history of European settler aspirations and concerns which attempt to reconcile the country’s economic advantage, as a major agricultural exporter, with a desire to conserve its native flora and fauna as a hallmark of New Zealand’s unique identity and image
Crying over Spilt Milk: A Critical Assessment of the Ecological Modernisation of New Zealand’s Dairy Industry
Ecological modernization theory holds that capitalist economic structures can be transformed to avoid long-term environmental damage, through the introduction of modern environmental technologies and reforming modern institutions. Empirical evidence, drawing on ecological modernization practices in some European and North American contexts, lends support to this view. However, it is not clear yet whether the practices of ecological modernization can be applied with equal success to agricultural industries (such New Zealand's dairy sector), based on farmers as multiple producers. The New Zealand dairy industry faces political and commercial pressure to improve its environmental performance while maintaining commercial competitiveness in a global marketplace. In response to such pressures, the industry's main umbrella organization (Fonterra) has taken steps to improve the environmental management practices of the farmers who supply milk. The New Zealand dairy industry offers an example from which to assess the relevance of economical modernization theory
The Control, environmental sustainability and information management of Maori land in New Zealand
An increase in Maori land claims and the subsequent settlement of a number of land confiscation grievances have prompted calls for change to the land management, cadastral and legal regimes in New Zealand. There is little expert agreement as to Me shape any such reforms should take, but environmental planners and Maori leaders have conceded the need for an overhaul of current land information management practices. Such reforms must aspire to being legally workable, culturally appropriate and environmentally sustainable.
Most land in New Zealand is subject to recent legislation (post-1984) which acknowledges concern for Maori cultural values and ancestral rights and environmental sustainability. The existence of this legislation and growing Maori involvement in formulating public policy for the management of land and environmental resources mean that Maori concepts of land management and sustainability are receiving increasing attention and are likely to influence the shape of future cadastral reforms for Maori lands
The conservation of New Zealand’s biological heritage and the role of environmental planners
Species diversity is an important aspect of ecosystem health, and a necessary condition for long-term sustainable development. However, it is widely recognised that species extinction is on the increase, as biological diversity comes under pressure from land-use activity and environmental change. Despite an active official conservation programme, the indigenous biodiversity of New Zealand is under threat
Cultural outlooks and the global quest for sustainable management.
Culture shapes how people identify and evaluate elements of their environment, and influences their behaviour and subjective experiences. At a more pragmatic level, culture provides the social infrastructure and institutions that determine how resources are used and managed. This article highlights the links between culture and natural resource management. The authors outline contrasting points of view on the role of culture in resource and environmental management, and attempt to mediate between these conflicting positions
