How marketing capabilities and current performance drive strategic intentions in international markets

Drawing from two strategic views of the firm—the capability-based view and performance-feedback theory—this study examines the role of both marketing capabilities and current market performance as potential influencers of two key aspects of the intended future competitive strategy of firms operating in international markets: efficiency and marketing differentiation. Hypotheses are developed and tested in a survey of a sample of British exporting manufacturers. The findings are supportive of a more prominent role of marketing capabilities over recent market performance on future strategic intentions in export markets. Additional analyses of firms with an already established market position reveal a clear effect of informational capability on marketing differentiation and of product development capability and current market performance on efficiency intentions. We also find that target international market competitive intensity is a direct driver of efficiency-related but not differentiation-related strategic intentions

The purpose of this study is to find the effect of distance learning through learner center micro teaching model on students’ teaching confidence and teaching skills. The research design uses quasi-experimental research and pretest-posttest non controlled group design. The population is physics education students on sixth semester who was programming micro teaching courses. Purposes sampling technic used to get research sample and 31 students take part on this course. Data collected by using questionnaire on variables of teaching confidence and assessment rubric on variables of teaching skills. Teaching confidence and teaching skills are analyzed through normalized-gain and pair sample t-test. Data calculated use SPSS and the result is: 1) teaching confidence has normalized-gain <g> = 0,535 (moderate) and t = 12,336 (sig.=0,000); 2) teaching skills has normalized-gain <g> = 0,566 (moderate) dan t = 9,690 (sig.=0,000). The result shows the effect of distance learning through learner center micro teaching (LCMT) model can improve teaching confidence and teaching skills of physics education students on FKIP Universitas Flores

Larval Development and Molting

The term larva applies to the young hatchling which varies from the grown up adult in possessing organs not present in the adult such as sex glands and associated parts. Insect development is of four types namely Ametabolous, Paurometabolous, Hemimetabolous and Holometabolous. The larvae appear in variety of forms and are termed as caterpillars, grubs or maggots in different insects groups. The larval development consists of series of stages in which each stage is separated from the next by a molt. It’s a complex process involving hormones, proteins and enzymes. Insects grow in increments. The molting is the process through which insects can routinely cast off their exoskeleton during specific times in their life cycle. The insect form in between two subsequent molts is termed as instar. The number of instars varies from 3 to 40 in different insect orders depending on the surrounding environmental and other conditions such as inheritance, sex, food quality and quantity. The larvae are categorized into four types namely Protopod larva, Polypod larva, Oligopod larva and Apodous larva

ANALISIS SERVICE LIFE PENGGUNAAN KERAMIKPADA DINDING GEDUNG DI BANTUL

Kemajuan suatu daerah dapat dilihat dari infrastruktur yang dibangun antara lain seperti bangunan gedung, jalan, jembatan, bangunan air, drainase, bandar udara, dermaga dan lain sebagainya dihasilkan untuk menjadi penunjang bagi para penduduk yang beraktivitas disana. Namun Suatu bangunan tidak hanya diihat dari segi ketahanan dan kemajuan, tetapi perlu ditinjau dari segi perawatan agar mengetahui umur layak pakai bangunan tersebut. Perawatan dalam sebuah konstruksi mempunyai dampak yang besar terhadap biaya, kekuatan, keamanan dan penampilan. perawatan yang dimaksud adalah terkait Umur layan (service life). Dalam penelitian ini membahas perawatan atau menyelidiki umur layanan (service life) pada bagian non struktural dimana penelitian ini meneliti service life penggunaan keramik pada dinding gedung di Bantul dengan melakukan kuisioner wawancara kepada pihak pengelola gedung serta melihat secara visual kerusakan keramik dinding pada gedung dan memberikan penilaian kerusakan menggunakan Degradation Models dimana dalam model teori tersebut dijelaskan persentase kerusakan beserta keterangannya yang memudahkan pengambilan data secara visual di lapangan. Sample data yang diambil dilapangan untuk diolah sebanyak 50 gedung. dari proses pengolahan data didapatkan hasil nilai rata-rata usia keramik pada dinding gedung yaitu 8 tahun dan level tingkat kerusakan (sw) sedikit terlihat. Dengan demikian rata-rata gedung yang berada di Bantul dilakukan perbaikan keramik selama 8 tahun sekali

Three dimensional anatomy of the anterior cruciate ligament: a new approach in anatomical orthopedic studies and a literature review

Background: The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is an important structure in the knee. The ACL does not heal following lesions, and surgical reconstruction is the standard treatment among athletes. Some steps of ACL reconstruction remain controversial. It is important to fully understand the anatomy of the ACL to accurately reproduce its anatomy during surgical reconstructions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of anaglyphic images that produce 3D images to better visualize the anatomy of the ACL, and to highlight the anatomical features of this ligament as reported in the literature.Methods: We included ten knees in this study. After dissection of the knee structures, pictures were acquired using a camera with Nikon D40, AF-S Nikkor 18-55 mm (1:3.5-5.6 G2 ED), and Micro Nikkor 105 mm (1:2.8) lenses. The pair of images was processed using Callipyan 3D Anabuilder software, which transforms the two images into one anaglyphic image.Results: During the dissection of the knees, nine pictures were acquired and transformed into anaglyphic images.Conclusion: This study, demonstrated that the use of 3D images is a useful tool that can improve the knowledge of the anatomy of the knee, while also facilitating knee reconstruction surgery

Applying the Learner-Centered Micro Teaching Model for Improving Teaching Confidence, Attitudes Toward Teaching Profession, and Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) of Physics Education Students

The research on the use of the LCMT model aims to find out the increase in teaching confidence, attitudes toward the teaching profession, and pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) competencies of students.  The sampling technique uses purposive sampling and the number of individuals is 31 people consisting of 22 women and 9 men. Data obtained through questionnaires and assessment rubrics and tests. Questionnaires are used to measure teaching confidence and attitudes toward teaching profession. Assessment rubrics and tests are used to measure PCK. . Data were analyzed for normalized gain and paired t-test (paired sample test). The results showed a significant increase in teaching confidence with gain = 0.535 and t = 12.336 with sig. (2-tailed) = 0,000 (p 0.05), attitudes toward the teaching profession with gain = 0.565 and t = 8.3354 with sig (2-tailed) = 0,000 (p 0.05), and PCK with gain = 0.580 and t = 16.073 with sig (2-tailed) = 0,000 (p 0.05)
