Pendidikan Seks Pada Remaja Dalam Keluarga Muslim

Keluarga muslim yang terdiri dari pasangan suami dan istri yang mempunyai anak remaja, juga menginginkan anak remaja dapat menjaga dirinya sendiri. Salah satu cara yang dapat dilakukan keluarga muslim adalah dengan memberikan pendidikan yang memadai termasuk pendidikan seks. Pendidikan seks adalah upaya pengajaran, penyadaran dan penerangan tentang persoalan seksual yang diberikan kepada remaja berkenaan dengan naluri seks dan perkawinan. Aspek pendidika seks antara lain: komunikasi, kerjasama, bimbingan dan agama. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memahami pola pendidikan seks dan cara mendidik persoalan seks kepada remaja dalam keluarga muslim. Deskripsi fenomena yang ingin diteliti yaitu pendidikan seks pada remaja dalam keluarga muslim. Untuk memperoleh data yang diperlukan dalam penelitian ini maka digunakan metode wawancara dan observasi. Infroman dalam penelitian ini adalah keluarga muslim yang terdiri dari suami dan istri yang mempunyai anak remaja, yang tinggal di Kota Surakarta dan Kabupaten Sukoharjo, berjumlah 3 pasang suami (enam orang) sebagai informan utama dan tiga remaja anak kandung dari informan utama tersebut sebagai informan pendukung. Karakteristik informan utama penelitian adalah: a. Keluarga inti yang beragama Islam mempunyai anak remaja, b. Beragama Islam sejak lahir, c. Melaksanakan kewajiban sholat dan puasa. Karakteristik informan pendukung penelitian adalah adalah: a. Remaja usia 10-16 tahun, b. Anak kandung informan utama, c. Melaksanakan kewajiban sholat dan puasa. Berdasarkan analisis data diperoleh kesimpulan bahawa pola-pola pendidikan seks yang dilakukan pasangan didapatkan enam pola yang berbeda-beda. Cara mendidik persoalan remaja yaitu dengan membangun komunikasi dengan memanfaatkan waktu berkumpul untuk menjawab pertanyaan, saling menasehati, menemani menonton TV, melakukan kerjasama dengan pasangan, guru dan tetangga dalam persoalan pendidikan seks pada remaja, membagi peran dengan pasangan, mendampingi dan mengawasi pergaulan anak remaja dengan berdiskusi, memberi teladan, dan menerapkan reward dan punisment. Pasangan suami atau isteri melakukan pola pendidikan seks berbeda-beda urutannya tidak ada yang diutamakan, untuk didahulukan maupun diakhirkan, karena pola tersebut merupakan cara yang terbaik untuk informan itu sendiri

Investigating different modeling techniques for quantifying heat transfer through building envelopes

There is interest concerning the energy performance of buildings in the United States. Buildings, whether residential, commercial or institutional, generally underperform in terms of energy efficiency when compared to buildings that are constructed following sustainably and energy efficiency standards. A substantial percentage of energy loss in these buildings is associated with the thermal efficiency of its envelope (exterior walls, windows roof, floors and doors). The objective of this study will evaluate the results of three energy modeling techniques developed to investigate the energy transfer through the envelope of existing campus buildings. The techniques employed are solving the heat transfer calculations using spreadsheets, using a stand-alone modeling software (OpenStudio) and using an integrated building energy modeling software (eQuest) employed in Autodesk Revit. The first technique is somewhat different from the other two because it does not require a 3D representation of the building to be generated as the first step in the modeling process. It is the application of a mathematical methodology employing heat transfer algorithms entered into the spreadsheet’s cells to estimate the heat transfer through the building envelope. Data needed for this technique are weather data of the buildings location, surface area of the building envelope, and the overall heat transfer coefficient (U-value) of each component of the building envelope. The OpenStudio technique involves a 3D representation of the building. The building is drawn on a 3D modeling computer program called SketchupPro, which communicates directly to the OpenStudio energy modelling interface. The building operations as well as the building characteristics, such as the composition and type of the elements that made up the building envelop, the thermal zone, occupancy schedule and the space type was inputted in the OpenStudio engine. The OpenStudio engine runs the simulation and generates a detail result about the energy usage and energy transfer in the building. The third method that employs AutoCAD Revit software is a standalone technique that does not require an external software for sketching the building model. Revit the ability to draw the model as well as perform the energy analysis at the same time with the aid of inbuilt eQuest modeling engine. The model in Revit is generated with the right building envelope characteristics as the existing building and the weather file. The process is somewhat similar to the OpenStudio technique; the main difference is the level of detail and limitation provided by both the energy modeling engine (eQuest and EnergyPlus). At the end of the simulation, the building energy modeling using Autodesk Revit presents a detailed result of the energy usage and energy flow in the building. The underlying reason of the comparison of three techniques is to understand the simplest, most efficient, accurate method to quantify heat transfer through the building envelope. By the end of this study, the most efficient technique for investigating the building envelope will be expected to be the EnergyPlus technique because of the usage simplicity, ability to take in a lot of details required for simulation and the periodical software updates

Selecting the Most Effective Energy Modeling Tool Based on a Project Requirement

Building energy usage can be derived and controlled by performing building energy modeling. BEM can be performed using numerous software tools such as DesignBuilder, OpenStudio, EnergyPlus etc. These modeling tools can be sorted into three different modeling categories: Black-box, Gray-box and White-box. It is important for a modeler to be able to quickly select the proper tool from the proper category to meet the need of the project. To validate the method of categorizing tools, the three models generated using tools from each category and the modeling outputs required were compared. Each model was designed to estimate the amount of heat transfer through building envelope elements. All the modeling tools were able to generate the required output, therefore, the method for selecting the most effective tool will be based on the output requirements and the time it takes to build the model, time it takes to generate the output and interpret the output

Pembantaran Pelaku Tindak Pidana yang Menderita Gangguan Jiwa dalam Tinjauan Hukum Pidana Islam: Studi Kasus di Polrestabes Surabaya

The paper aims to find out the Islamic Criminal Law's perspective on the postponement of the penal sentence on the criminal offenders who suffer mental disorders at the Surabaya Police Headquarters. At the end of the paper, it is concluded that the implementation of postponement arouses two main points of discussion. First, it is seen from the condition and fitness of the perpetrator that is the effect of mental disorders on the criminal. According to the opinions of ulama 'Malikiyah and Hanafiyah, the insane condition that occurred before the judge's decision could stop the court examination process and postpone it until the insane state disappeared. Their reason is that to impose a sentence requires a taklif, which must be present when conducting an examination. Second, because of postponing penal sentence on the criminal offender who has a mental disorder aims to facilitate the police to obtain clarity on a criminal case committed by the perpetrator or the suspect, so whether the suspect can be held accountable for the criminal act or not is in the interest of smooth examination. Therefore, in the view of Islamic Criminal Law, it is appropriate to postpone the legal sentence, because it is based on the text related to the prohibition of carrying out punishment if still in doubt (shubhat). &nbsp
