Evaluation of the Implementation of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Policies in Dumai City, Riau Province, Indonesia
Get PDFCSR as a form of corporate activity always demands social responsibility from companies. However, considering that the various types of CSR policies that currently exist have not been able to be implemented optimally by corporations, CSR policies need to be evaluated for systematic improvement. This research aims to determine the challenges companies face and how CSR policies can meet the policy evaluation criteria in Dumai City. This research uses qualitative research methods that explore challenges and evaluate CSR policies. Data analysis was conducted through the Nvivo 12 Plus application, sourced from interviews with each actor in Dumai City. This research found that the challenges companies face in CSR policies include the lack of a clear framework, lack of transparency and accountability, and difficulty balancing economic considerations with long-term needs. Then the evaluation of CSR policies in Dumai City is dominated by indicators of adequacy (21,62%) and equity (21,62%), followed by effectiveness (18,92%), responsiveness (16,22%), efficiency (13,51%), and accuracy (8.11%) which require optimal evaluation so that unclear rules regarding CSR policies can be improved systematically and able to achieve the important goals expected in the public sector
Scrutinizing the Impacts of Grammarly Application on Students’ Writing Performance and Perception
Get PDFThis research explored the impact of the Grammarly application on students’ writing performance and perceptions, particularly during the thesis writing stage. Writing is a complex cognitive process requiring strategic planning, organization, grammar, and vocabulary skills. The study focused on students majoring in English Language Education at Ar-Raniry State Islamic University, specifically those in their ninth semester from the 2018 cohort. A purposive sample of 42 students, all at the thesis writing stage and users of Grammarly, was selected from a total of 127. Additionally, three lecturers, serving as thesis supervisors, were randomly selected for interviews from a pool of 20. The research employed both qualitative and quantitative methods, using survey questionnaires and interviews for data collection. Results indicated that Grammarly was a beneficial tool for students, significantly aiding in thesis writing and reducing the time spent on checking grammatical errors. The surveys revealed unanimous student agreement on Grammarly’s positive impact on their writing process. Interviews with lecturers supported this, noting an improvement in the quality of theses written by students who used Grammarly. This study underscored the effectiveness of Automated Writing Evaluation (AWE) tools like Grammarly in enhancing students’ writing skills and outcomes
Trend Strategy to Prevent Bullying in Islamic Boarding Schools (Pesantren)
Get PDFThe presence of bullying within Islamic boarding schools is a serious issue that demands immediate attention and prevention. This research aimed to investigate the factors of bullying, the characteristics of bullying behavior in Islamic boarding schools, and the preventative measures implemented by Islamic boarding schools to shield their students. The research approach employed is a systematic literature review focused on published articles. The data was restricted to articles published from 2013 to 2023. The researchers used PRISMA analysis to analyze the data. The research results found that individual, a supportive environment, parental parenting patterns, particularly authoritarian parenting patterns, and aggressive or violent video or film elements were all factors in bullying. Several strategies had been put into effect, including the following: creating a fun cottage movement (GPM) program, strengthening conflict and emotional management, carrying out regular outreach and training regarding the dangers of bullying, cyber bullying, and legal education for bullies, implementing an anti-bullying curriculum, and others. Besides, more comprehensive research findings indicated that Islamic boarding schools must implement character formation based on Josephson’s “Character Counts” theory with six main pillars to prevent bullying behavior among students
I Know You: User Profiling on Social Media Usage of Chinese Private University Students
Get PDFChinese university students’ use of social media is becoming increasingly diverse, and students from private universities in China have different group characteristics than those from public universities. This research endeavoured to establish a comprehensive user profile of Chinese private university students by examining their social media usage patterns. The purpose was to gain profound insights into the distinctive attributes of students in China’s private universities within the context of the current era characterised by extensive data availability. This study employed a questionnaire-based research approach to acquire a dataset consisting of 673 instances of social media usage among students enrolled in private universities in China. Subsequently, exploratory factor analysis was performed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software, extracting five (5) categorical feature tags. Combined with the extracted feature tags and the usage status and perception dimension data, the K-means cluster analysis method was used to perform rapid clustering to derive four (4) differentiated groups comprising information exchange-oriented users, instrument-oriented users, dependent-oriented users and entertainment-oriented users. Furthermore, thorough analysis and description of the essential attributes for these 4 user profile categories have been conducted by incorporating the fundamental user information
Unraveling the Merdeka Curriculum: Exploring Differentiated Instruction’s Impact on Student Learning
Get PDFDifferentiated instruction, as the application of the ‘teaching at the right level’ principle, which involves tailoring teaching to student’s needs and the diversity of their interests and readiness, needs to be developed in Merdeka Curriculum implementation. This research aimed to measure the influence of learning components, including variables such as planning, implementation, and learning assessment, as well as learning elements, including variables such as content, processes, learning outcomes, and the learning environment, on the potential for differentiated instruction in elementary and secondary education. This research employed a quantitative method, using path analysis to measure the significance of the influence of independent variables (learning components and learning elements) on the potential for differentiated instruction. The results indicated that three variables significantly influence the Potential for Differentiated Instruction (Y), namely: Learning Components/ Learning Assessment (X3) with a t-value of 12.817 > ttable1,985; Learning Elements/ Learning Processes (X5) with a t-value of 10.223 > t ttable 1,985; and Learning Outcomes/ Achievements (X6) t-value 9.817 > ttable 1,985. Thus, the potential for differentiated instruction in Merdeka Curriculum implementation in elementary and secondary education can be maximized if teachers can plan and implement learning assessments accurately, manage differentiated instruction processes, and apply differentiated instruction outcomes
Introduction to Spiritual Intelligence for Non-Muslim Students at a Higher Learning Institution
Get PDFThe overemphasis on science and technology for economic and national growth, driven by Western influence, has led to the neglect of the intrinsic value of spiritual and social dimensions in education. This issue undoubtedly affects non-Muslim students as well. To address this, the Department of Social Sciences at the Centre for Human Sciences, Universiti Malaysia Pahang Al-Sultan Abdullah, introduces and exposes non-Muslim students to the knowledge of spiritual intelligence. The aim of this study was to examine students’ self-understanding of spiritual intelligence based on test scores for elements of God consciousness, self-transcendence, and self-determination. A total of 209 first-year non-Muslim students participated in this study. Data were analyzed quantitatively using descriptive analysis, mean rank comparison, and correlational analysis. The results from the descriptive analysis indicated that non-Muslim students understood all key concepts in spiritual intelligence. The mean rank comparison showed a significant difference only in the God consciousness element between Hindu students and others. Finally, correlation analysis revealed that all three variables positively correlated with each other. The findings of this study suggest the need to continue efforts to impart the knowledge of spiritual intelligence to non-Muslim students in higher education institutions to improve well-being within society, regardless of race and individual beliefs
Covid-19’s Effect on Lecturer Performance and Management Functions in Educational Implementation
Get PDFVirus Covid-19 spread very quickly. One of the sectors affected by this pandemic is education. It’s felt at the State Islamic Higher Education Institutions (PTKIN) in Aceh. Covid-19 has influenced the function of college management and the performance in fostering education and teaching. This article was intended to explain research findings on the impact of COVID-19 and management functions on the performance of lecturers in conducting education and teaching at the PTKIN Aceh. This research was carried out ex post facto on a causal basis to identify the causal relationship between the variables studied, namely the Covid-19 pandemic, management function, and lecturer performance. Research showed that COVID-19 affected the management function of the campus but did not affect the performance of the lecturers in performing education and teaching at the PTKIN Aceh. COVID-19 could have a significant positive impact on the performance of education and teaching tasks at Aceh PTKIN because it forced the lecturers to deliver new techniques in teaching performance, which is a Virtual Learning application
An Argumentative Discourse Analysis of the Newspaper Editorial “The 9/30 Tragedy”
Get PDFAcademic studies on newspaper discourse have focused primarily on the structure of news items. Research on an argumentative discourse of newspaper editorials is understudied. By using the sociocognitive theory of knowledge and opinion as the theoretical basis, this article aims to analyze the argumentative discourse constructed in “The 9/30 Tragedy” editorial published in The Jakarta Post and to discuss whether the arguments in the text constitute knowledge or solely opinions of the editorial team on the defunct Indonesian Communist Party (PKI). The eclectic research method used the pragma-dialectical model of argumentation supported by intertextuality and vocabulary analysis. The findings reveal that the editorial has a standpoint that the tragedy of September 30, 1965, has led the course of Indonesia’s history for the worst tragedy and that the argumentation is manifested in three stages: confrontational stage, argumentation stage, and concluding stage. Acting as the protagonist, the editorial team maneuvers strategically by quoting other voices and using an evaluative lexical repertoire to support their arguments criticizing Soeharto’s leadership legacy. Overall, the editorial seems to reconstruct mental models for the readers by questioning the reliability of the military-dictated textbooks about the 9/30 Tragedy, thereby reshaping the historical knowledge about the calamity, which is justifiable
The State Intervention in the Islamic Education in Aceh: Threats or Opportunities?
Get PDFThe enactment of the Aceh Governance Law (UUPA) allows the state’s intervention to the nature of Islamic boarding schools in Aceh, which is originally connected to Aceh’s socio-cultural system into the formality of the State’s administrative structure. This article utilized a triangulation methodology, which involved the integration of document analysis, observation, and in-depth interviews. The study generated data from participants located within the dayah, including 2 teungku chik (leadership), 2 teachers, and 5 students; and participants located outside the dayah, including 2 academics, 2 social figures, and a director of Department of Dayah Education. The findings of our study indicated that the institutional frameworks of dayah had undergone modernization, with significant improvements in infrastructure, integration of curricula, enhancement of human resources (teungku-teacher and santri-student), and expansion of collaborations and networks. This modification granted the dayah of Aceh a more favorable standing within the Acehnese social hierarchy. This study highlighted that dayah institutions retained their cultural foundation as centers of Islamic instruction despite the changes they experienced. Instead, the incorporation of State action has led to the establishment of institutional and intellectual prosperity; it appeared that state intervention was more of an opportunity than a threat
