The Roles of Technology Literacy and Technology Integration to Improve Students’ Teaching Competencies

Students majoring in accounting education should be equipped not only with the contents of subject matters but also the pedagogy skills. Previous studies show that there is still a significant gap between student’s teaching competencies prepared by the university and the teaching competencies required by the schools. Current development in technology changes the way students learn and teachers teach as students and teachers can easily acquire new knowledge and skills through the use of technology. The study aims at identifying the influence of technology literacy and technology integration on the students’ teaching competencies. It employs quantitative approach and collects data from students majoring in accounting education—both regular and international classes. By using random sampling technique and Likert-type questionnaire with five scales, the study collected 86 data from respondents. The results of regression analysis show that that technology literacy and technology integration have a significant influence on students’ teaching competencies. The determination coefficient reaches the percentage of 32.8%, meaning that the competency of student to teach is determined 32% by both the independent variables. The faculty should provide more facilitation to students majoring in accounting education to ensure that they can improve their technology literacy. Faculty also should provide more technology facilities to the students and lecturers to enable them to catch up with technology advancements. Future research should provide more comprehensive model by including other variables having potentials to contribute to students’ teaching competencies.     Keywords: technology literacy, teaching competency, technology integratio

The Roles of Digital Literacy, Technology Literacy, and Human Literacy to Encourage Work Readiness of Accounting Education Students in the Fourth Industrial Revolution Era

Industry 4.0 requires workers to have ability in new literacy including digital literacy, technology literacy, and human literacy. The objective of this study is the roles of digital literacy, technology literacy, and human literacy to encourage readiness of students to access work world. This research is a quantitative research. The population of this study was 100 students of education study programs, Universitas Negeri Semarang with 80 students as samples calculated by Slovin formula with 5% error rate. The data collection techniques use questionnaires. The data analysis techniques use analysis of multiple regression with SPSS version 21. The results of this study shows that multiple regression analysis obtained equation Y = 6.173 + 0.308X1 + 0.264X2 + 0.230X3 + e.

Theurapeutic Effectiveness of Rat Bone Marrow Stem Cells in Poly Cystic Ovary Syndrome Mice Model on Folliculogenesis, TGF-β, GDF-9 Expression, and Estrogen, TNF- and Androgen Levels

Objectives: to identify therapeutic effectiveness of Rat Bone Marrow stem cell in PCOS rats model on folliculogenesis, TGF-beta and GDF-9 expression and on estrogen, TNF-a and androgen levels.Material and Methods: this study is a laboratory experimental research with using animal testing. PCOS was induced by the administration of testosterone propionate hormone into 30 mice. The subjects of this study are divided into 2 groups: stem cell group and control group. The mice were injected with testosterone then vaginal swab was performed to determine the mice cycle. After determining mice in anestrous cycle, stem cell was injected. TNF-a was measured with immunohistochemistry and androgen was examined using ELISA. The data was measured by student t-test.Result: The average number of TNF-a expression in control group was lower than stem cell group (5.35 vs 2.34; p= 0.0026). The average androgen level for stem cell group was lower than mean for control group (2.31 vs 0.40; p= 0.0026).Conclusion: In this study of polycystic model mice, stem cell decreased the expression of TNF-a and androgen leve
