BOOK REVIEW: TECHNOLOGY IN SECOND LANGUAGE WRITING: ADVANCES IN COMPOSING, TRANSLATION, WRITING PEDAGOGY AND DATA-DRIVEN LEARNING
Get PDFThis book provides a comprehensive exploration of the integration of technology in second language (L2) writing instruction. It examines the evolution of technology’s role in L2 learning, particularly in writing, where individual practice is crucial. The book consists of 11 chapters encompassing research and development reports on the application of technology, especially machine translation (MT), in the L2 writing learning process. While 90% of the content focuses on research results, a conceptual review in one chapter highlights the limitations of MT in English as a foreign language (EFL) writing. The book caters to L2 teachers and language learning researchers, offering valuable insights into using MT and wiki writing as effective learning instruments. Additionally, it presents novel strategies, such as using Wikipedia to hone critical thinking skills, and introduces handwriting automation for L2 writing assessment. Despite its merits, the book’s structure, content balance, and limited readership accessibility are areas requiring improvement. Nonetheless, its research findings and practical implications make it a valuable resource for L2 educators seeking to harness technology in writing instruction

This research aims to reach the root causes of discrimination on leadership especially the women exclusion. Finally, the researchers offer pastoral invitation the importance equality between men and women as the image of God through family formation
Comparison the adsorption of Pb with Ecofriendly Bio-Adsorbent From Rice Husk Ash and Boiler Fly Ash
Get PDFThe amount of environmental pollution is in line with the increasing of industry. Industry can generate waste in the form of solid, liquid or gas. Utilization of waste as an adsorbent is a solution that can be done in dealing with waste such as metal waste contained in water. Therefore, this research aims to make a bio-adsorbent in the form of silica from rice husk ash and boiler fly ash and know the comparison of the Pb absorbed. The research method used is an experimental method by synthesizing the manufacture of silica. Then testing of Pb based on contact time was 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 90 minutes and 120 minutes. The results showed that the two silica-based bio-adsorbents could adsorb Pb. Bio-adsorbent from rice husk ash absorbed 56.51% of Pb in 30 minutes, 52.93% in 60 minutes, 48.65% in 90 minutes and 43.55% in 120 minutes. The bio-adsorbent from the fly ash boiler absorbed 50.15% of Pb in 30 minutes, 44.28% in 60 minutes, 38.48% in 90 minutes and 36.45% in 120 minutes. Bio-adsorbent from rice husk ash absorbs more Pb ions than from boiler fly ash. Because the silica in the rice husk ash forms a collection in the pores, whereas in the fly ash boiler there is silica that is spread out. This research can be a basis for further research in the form of dye bio-adsorbent products based on their short use time

Interelasi Argumen-Argumen dan Kritik Tentang Eksistensi Tuhan dengan Religiositas Manusia
Get PDFHumans as Homo religiosus, driven by their intellectual instincts, often revisit questions about the existence of God. The presence of religious doctrines that encourage humans to contemplate more about God’s creation rather than His essence raises the question of whether there is still an interrelation between discussions on divinity and human religiosity when that is pursued. This study investigates the arguments for God’s existence, the critiques of these arguments, and their interrelation with human religiosity. The aim is to clarify the understanding of human religiosity while creating a space for critical and in-depth dialogue. This research employs a library research method, gathering data from books, journal articles, and other relevant literature. A philosophical approach and qualitative analysis techniques are used. The findings of this article, include: First, the arguments for God’s existence, whether apriori or aposteriori, each face unavoidable criticisms. These arguments are efforts to justify faith within religiosity. Second, the critiques, in the context of Homo religiosus, provide opportunities to reflect and reassess understanding of God and related beliefs. Third, the inconsistencies or incompleteness in arguments for God’s existence reflect the nature of knowledge and reality that can be understood as consistent and complete at the same time if only at a higher level of infinity. The limitations within each available argument can be understood as something that drives self-awareness toward a more inclusive and profound level of religiosity.Abstrak Eksistensi Tuhan merupakan salah satu topik dalam kajian filsafat yang tak pernah selesai diperbincangkan. Terdapat berbagai macam argumen dari para filsuf tentang eksistensi Tuhan. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengulas kritik atas argumen-argumen yang berkaitan dengan eksistensi Tuhan yang datang kemudian. Pertanyaan menarik seputar kajian tentang Tuhan mencakup: bagaimanakah argumen-argumen terkait eksistensi Tuhan? Apakah argumen-argumen tersebut dapat menunjukkan atau bahkan membuktikan eksistensi Tuhan? Seiring berkembangnya zaman, adakah kritik yang menyangga argumen-argumen tersebut? Artikel ini menggunakan metode library research dengan pendekatan filosofis untuk membahas hal tersebut. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis secara kualitatif. Hasil dari penelitian ini mencakup: (1) argumen ontologis yang menjelaskan eksistensi Tuhan berdasarkan definisinya tidak lebih dari akrobat logika, (2) argumen kosmologis yang menunjukkan bahwa penciptaan alam semesta serta gerak alam bermula dari satu muasal mengandung inkonsistensi dan tidak koresponden, (3) argumen teleologis didasarkan pada Tuhan sebagai pengatur dan perencana yang luar biasa merupakan over generalisasi, (4) argumen moral yang menjelaskan bahwa Tuhan harus adanya, mengandung asumsi yang dipaksakan terhadap realitas dan inkoheren dengan makna eksistensi. Kemudian, (5) argumen taruhan hanya didasarkan pada upaya pragmatis menghadapi problem Tuhan dan (6) argumen pengalaman religius didasarkan pada subjektivitas yang tidak dapat diuji dan diverifikasi. Semua argumen yang ada cenderung berupa simplifikasi atau over generalisasi, sehingga belum menunjukkan dan membuktikan secara kuat akan eksistensi Tuhan
EKOFEMINISME PERSPEKTIF PAUS FRANSISKUS DALAM LAUDATO SI’
Get PDFEcology never ceases to pose questions and problems to humanity, and finally it also touches gender issues, which, among others, take on the inequality between men and women as underlying the problematic relationship between humankind and nature. The earth has much suffered under the exploiting drives of modern industrialization, which derives from an androcentric viewpoint in nature – humanity relationships. In this article the author would like to point out that all these issues related to ecology and feminism have drawn serious attention from the part of the Catholic Church leadership, particularly the current Pontiff, Pope Francis. He wrote a special papal encyclical, Laudato Si’, dealing with ecology, namely, how humankind should bring about a just and rightful relationship to, and attitude toward, nature, as the Divine Creator would wish them to be. To achieve this purpose, the author starts with describing various strands within the movements of ecology and ecofeminism. Against the rich background of ecofeminism, the author goes on with expounding the salient points of the encyclical Laudato Si’ with a special attention as to how humans should treat the earth and nature as “sister”, imbued with care for its integrity and growth, for the praise of the Divine Creator. In this regard, the Blessed Virgin Mary is presented at the end of the encyclical letter as a Model for a Christian ecofeminist attitude toward the earth. The author of this article elaborates this mention, describing her as “Life-bearer Mother”, who by her faith unites herself with the work of redemption carried out by her divine Son, Jesus Christ
INKLUSIVITAS SEBAGAI PERWUJUDAN MARTABAT MANUSIA DALAM PERSPEKTIF ETIS FRATELLI TUTTI
Get PDFInclusivity is a principal value in togetherness which is currently being eroded by the emergence of narrow nationalism accompanied by fanaticism spreading in various corners of the world. Many countries build fortresses to separate themselves from others because of excessive suspicion of others. Furthermore, religions have been inseparable from the strongholds that increasingly separated one from the other. This phenomenon received exceptional attention from Pope Francis in the Fratelli Tutti encyclical which was written in loving language to encourage fraternity. One of the frequently appearing keywords in this encyclical is human dignity or dignity of the human person. How did Pope Francis talk about the inclusivity in Fratelli Tutti concerning human dignity? Through qualitative method using literature analysis techniques, the authors answered this main question from Fratelli Tutti’s ethical perspective through three focal inquiries, i.e., Fratelli Tutti, inclusivity, and human dignity. The novelty of this research lies in the analysis that seeks the comprehensive relationship between inclusivity and human dignity to conceptual thinking enrichment
Kecenderungan Perilaku Narsis pada Penganggaran di Perguruan Tinggi
Get PDFAbstrakDalam lingkup perusahaan, anggaran memiliki peran yang sangat penting dalam mengendalikan dan mengalokasikan sumber daya finansial. Senjangan anggaran merupakan bagian yang krusial dari penganggaran karena dapat memengaruhi kinerja perusahaan dan niat manajer. Penelitian ini menginvestigasi hubungan yang ada antara narsisma dan senjangan anggaran dalam konteks institusi pendidikan tinggi di Indonesia. Selain mempertimbangkan variabel narsisma, penelitian ini juga menganalisis peran gender sebagai variabel pemoderasi dalam hubungan tersebut. Pendekatan yang diambil oleh penelitian ini cukup unik, karena fokus pada konteks Indonesia dan menggunakan metode survei online dalam pengumpulan data. Analisis data dilakukan melalui metode Partial Least Square - Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). Hasil dari penelitian ini memberikan temuan menarik. Salah satu temuan utamanya adalah bahwa faktor jenis kelamin ternyata memiliki pengaruh terhadap hubungan antara tingkat narsisma dan senjangan anggaran. Meskipun dihipotesiskan bahwa narsisma dapat berkontribusi pada senjangan anggaran, penelitian ini menemukan bahwa pengaruh narsisma terhadap senjangan anggaran tidak dapat terkonfirmasi dalam konteks institusi pendidikan tinggi di Indonesia. Ini menunjukkan adanya kompleksitas dalam hubungan antara narsisma dan senjangan anggaran yang mungkin dipengaruhi oleh faktor-faktor lain yang dalam penelitian ini faktor gender ternyata memengaruhi. Kata kunci: ciri kepribadian, narsisma, senjangan anggaran, gender, usiaAbstractWithin the scope of the company, the budget has a very important role in controlling and allocating financial resources. Budgetary slack is a crucial part of budgeting because it can affect company performance and managers' intentions. This research investigates the relationship that exists between narcissism and budgetary slack in the context of higher education institutions in Indonesia. In addition to considering the variable narcissism, this study also analyzes the role of gender as a moderating variable in this relationship. The approach taken by this study is quite unique, as it focuses on the Indonesian context and uses online survey methods in data collection. Data analysis was carried out using the Partial Least Square - Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method. The results of this study provide interesting findings. One of the main findings is that the gender factor has an influence on the relationship between the level of narcissism and budgetary slack. Although it is hypothesized that narcissism can contribute to budgetary slack, this research finds that the influence of narcissism on budgetary slack cannot be confirmed in the context of higher education institutions in Indonesia. This shows the existence of complexity in the relationship between narcissism and budgetary slack which may be influenced by other factors that in the research gender factor turns out to influence.Keywords: personality traits, narcissism, budgetary slack, gender, ag
