Adoption and diffusion of no tillage practices in Southern Spain olive groves
Get PDFThis paper analyses the process of adoption of no tillage in South-eastern Spain’s olive groves. Olive tree groves in South-eastern Spain’s mountainous areas are subject to a high risk of soil erosion, which is the main environmental problem for this crop, and have to incur in high costs of soil conservation. This results in a greater difficulty to comply with the practices required to benefit from both the single payment and agri-environmental schemes. In many high-steeped areas, farmers have opted for non-tillage practices as an alternative to other conservation practices. Using our own data from a survey carried out in 2006 among 215 olive tree farmers from the Granada Province in Southern Spain regarding the adoption of soil conservation and management practices, we model the diffusion process of no tillage practices using several specifications (logistic, Gompertz and exponential). We also estimate an ordered probit model to analyse which socio-economic and institutional factors determine the adoption of no tillage. Our results show that 90% of farmers in the area of study perform no tillage with either localized (21%) or no localized (69%) application of weedicides. The diffusion process of no tillage has been very intense since the middle nineties, and has been based on the interactions among farmers in the area of study rather than in external factors such as EU policies or extension services. Among other relevant factors that positively affect the adoption of no tillage practices in general, such as farm size and irrigation, the probability of a farmer adopting no tillage with non-localized application of weedicides increases when there is a relative that will continue with the farming activity, what causes the farmer to incorporate long term effects in his farming decisions, when the farmer is only a manager or when he bought the farm rather than inherited it (i.e. on more professionalized farms), and with his educational level. These results confirm some findings from previous studies in other nearby areas.Spanish olive groves, soil erosion, no tillage, Crop Production/Industries, Land Economics/Use,
Perbedaan Rerata Hasil Belajar Pemrograman Dasar yang Diajar Menggunakan Model Mind Mapping Dibandingkan dengan Model Team Assisted Individualization Berbantuan Modul pada Siswa Kelas X TKJ di SMKN 10 Malang
Get PDFABSTRAK Agustin, Rani. 2018. Perbedaan Rerata Hasil Belajar Pemrograman Dasar yang Diajar Menggunakan Model Mind Mapping Dibandingkan dengan Model Team Assisted Individualization Berbantuan Modul pada Siswa Kelas X TKJ di SMKN 10 Malang. Skripsi, Jurusan Teknik Elektro, Fakultas Teknik, Universitas Negeri Malang. Pembimbing (I) Dr. Setiadi Cahyono Putro, M.Pd., M.T., Pembimbing (II) Triyanna Widiyaningtyas, S.T., M.T. Kata Kunci: Mind Mapping, Team Assisted Individualization, Hasil Belajar Hasil belajar siswa pada mata pelajaran Pemrograman Dasar sangat dipengaruhi oleh proses pembelajaran ketika siswa belajar. Pemilihan model pembelajaran yang sesuai dengan karakteristik pembelajaran, merupakan salah satu faktor penentu keberhasilan dari hasil belajar. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk (1) mendeskripsikan hasil belajar ranah kognitif dan psikomotorik dengan menerapkan model pembelajaran Mind Mapping dan Team Assisted Individualization pada mata pelajaran Pemrograman Dasar berbantuan modul di SMK Negeri 10 Malang; (2) mengetahui perbedaan rerata hasil belajar ranah kognitif dan psikomotorik dengan menerapkan model pembelajaran Mind Mapping dan Team Assisted Individualization pada mata pelajaran Pemrograman Dasar berbantuan modul di SMK Negeri 10 Malang. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian eksperimen dengan pendekatan kuantitatif. Bentuk rancangan penelitian pada eksperimen ini menggunakan model Quasi Experimental Design (eksperimen semu) dengan pola Non-Equivalent Control Group Design dengan penerapan model Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design. Subjek penelitian ini adalah siswa kelas X TKJ 1 sebagai kelas eksperimen 1 yang menerapkan model pembelajaran Mind Mapping dengan jumlah 28 siswa dan siswa kelas X TKJ 4 sebagai kelas eksperimen 2 dengan menerapakan model pembelajaran Team Assisted Individualization yang berjumlah 29 siswa. Teknik pengumpulan data berupa soal uraian ranah kognitif dan lembar penilaian psikomotorik. Teknik analisis data meliputi uji normalitas, uji homogenitas, dan uji hipotesis menggunakan Independent Sample T-Test. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa (1) rata-rata hasil belajar kelas eksperimen 1 pada ranah kognitif sebesar 78 dan pada ranah psikomotorik sebesar 77, sedangkan rata-rata hasil belajar kelas eksperimen 2 pada ranah kognitif sebesar 83 dan pada ranah psikomotorik sebesar 82 (2) hasil belajar ranah kognitif dengan nilai signifikansi 0,006 < 0,05 dan nilai hasil belajar ranah psikomotorik dengan nilai signifikansi 0,010 < 0,05. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini jika berdasarkan dengan hipotesis ranah kognitif yang diajukan adalah terdapat perbedaan rerata hasil belajar ranah kognitif setelah diterapkan model pembelajaran Mind Mapping dan Team Assisted Individualization pada mata pelajaran pemrograman dasar dan jika berdasarkan dengan hipotesis ranah psikomotorik yang diajukan adalah terdapat perbedaan rerata hasil belajar ranah psikomotorik setelah diterapkan model pembelajaran Mind Mapping dan Team Assisted Individualization pada mata pelajaran pemrograman dasar
Framing gender intersections in the European Union: What implications for the quality of intersectionality in policies?
No full textThis article explores the extent to which the emergence of an antidiscrimination policy in the European Union (EU) implies a shift in EU gender equality policies towards an intersectional approach. The frame analysis of EU gender equality policy documents shows that intersectional dimensions are increasingly present but they are treated implicitly and from a separate perspective, and the inclusion of a wide range of inequalities often implies a degendering of the policy content. We assess the implications of the identified intersectionality trends for the quality of intersectionality in gender equality policies, and we suggest the practice of an "intersectionality impact assessment" as a way to improve the quality of EU policy-making. © 2011 The Author

Protecting the historic buildings of Mexico: the barrel vault of San Agustin Church in Morelia
Get PDFHeritage in Mexico is endangered due to exposure to major hazard events and lack of maintenance. The level of knowledge
necessary to evaluate structural behavior of historic buildings is generally low, mainly regarding the parameters such as mechanical properties. San Agustin church is one of the most important historical buildings in Morelia City, Mexico. Thus, a comprehensive analysis of the San
Agustin church was performed, including a damage survey and dynamic identification tests. Based on the diagnosis, a 3D finite element
model with solid elements was developed and calibrated. Then, a seismic assessment was carried out using pushover analysis. The findings
about the damage obtained from the numerical analysis is consistent with the actual condition of the church. Finally, a partial model was
developed to evaluate the performance of the nave barrel vault strengthened with an extrados masonry arch and a layer of carbon fabricreinforced cementitious matrix, an intervention that substantially increased the horizontal load capacity.The authors would like to acknowledge Dr. Carlos Eduardo Mendoza Rosales and Dr. Jose Cabrera Aceves for the architectural data provided for the development of this work, and Eng. Rodolfo Gaytan for support during dynamic identification testing. Finally, the first author would like to thank the CONACyT grant
