EFEKTIFITAS METODE ACTIVE LEARNING TERHADAP PEMBELAJARAN INSYA STUDI EKSPERIMEN KUASI TERHADAP SISWA KELAS X MADRASAH ALIYAH AL-IHSAN BALEENDAH BANDUNG
No full textMasalah dalam penelitian ini adalah lemahnya siswa dalam hal menulis arab, padahal intensitas mereka untuk belajar bahasa arab lebih banyak dibandingkan dengan siswa di sekolah menengah umum yang terdapat pembelajaran bahasa arab didalamnya. peneliti mencoba menggunakan metode active learning pada pembelajaran insya. penelitian ini menggunakan metode experiment kuasi, desain non-equivalent control group design. dalam penelitian ini, peneliti memilih anggota kelompok eksperimen dan anggota kelompok kontrol masing-masing 15 orang. selanjutnya kelompok eksperimen dikenai perlakuan (treatment) yaitu metode active learning, sementara kelompok kontrol tidak menerima perlakuan yang sama. adapun pengujian hipotesis akhir dilakukan pada gain kedua kelas tersebut. setelah dilakukan uji mann whitney u-test dengan taraf signifikansi 0,05 diperoleh asymp. sig (2-tailed) 0,00. kriteria pengujian adalah terima ha diterima (terdapat hubungan dan keefektivitasan yang positif dan signifikan antara pembelajaran insya dengan metode active learning) jika 0,05. dengan demikian dapat dibuat keputusan ha diterima dan h0 ditolak. artinya terdapat efektifitas yang signifikan untuk meningkatkan kemampuan siswa dalam pembelajaran insya
Abstract
The problem that motivated this research is the ability of students of madrasah aliyah al ihsan baleendah bandung are relatively weak in free essay writting by arabic language, although they have more intensitive hour in learning arabic language then other students of senior high school that has arabic languge in their curriculum. the researcher tried to use active learning method in learning writting by arabic languege. the research used quasi-experimental method, by non equivalent control group design. in this study, the researcher selected the member of experimental group and control group, and each group contains 15 persons. so, the experimental group are treated by active learning method, while the control group are not. the final hypothesis testing was performed on the normalized gain for both types. having tested the mann-whitney u test with significance level 0,05, obtained asymp sig. (2 tailed) 0.00. testing criteria is ha accepted (there is a relationship and the effectiveness of a positive and significant correlation between the ability to write by using active learning method) if < 0,05. and ho accepted (there is no a relationship and the effectiveness of a positive and significant correlation between the ability to write by using active learning method. so there, the decision can be made that ha was accepted and ho was rejected, it means there is the significant effectiveness to increase the ability of students in writing by arabic language

CONSUMER AGE INFLUENCE ON FOOD LABEL READING HABIT
No full textThe objective of this paper was to detect the food label reading habit of consumer according to consumer age. To achieve this goal author of this paper has adopted five variables with independent and dependent status. Four variables were independent like reading complete food label, reading manufacturing date, reading expire date and reading ingredients. One variable was dependent like influence on purchase behavior. The data was collected through questionnaire and 350 questions were distributed among customers. Author has received 251 valid questions. The data was divided into two groups. The two groups were designed with respect to age range. In (Group I) the respondent’s age ranges was 20-25 and mean age was 23. Whereas in (Group II) the age was 26-30 and average age was 27. Correlation and regression test were conducted and results has unfolded the fact that there is a difference in both groups for food label reading habits. In Group I three variables significantly influence on purchase behavior of consumer while purchasing food items like reading manufacturing date, reading expire date and reading ingredients. In Group II only two variables like reading ingredients and reading manufacturing date has significant effect on purchase behavior of consumer while purchasing food products. Two variables were common in both groups like reading manufacturing date and reading ingredients. This result has also depicted that consumer normally, irrespective of age group; focus on manufacturing date, which give the freshness of food product, and ingredients to know the nutrients used in processing the food
Antecedents, Consequences And Control Of Opportunistic Behavior In Strategic Networks
No full textIn the Strategic Management literature, the problem of cooperation arising from conflicts of interest has been described as the problem of motivation. Under assumptions of self-interest, or its stronger forms (such as opportunism), collectively beneficial outcomes do not result for because of the actions motivated by the self interests of individual members. In this paper, the author presents a host of antecedents that can spur and/or facilitate such opportunistic pursuits in members of a strategic network. The influence of these antecedents has been reflected in the ex-ante and ex-post phases of network life cycle. It is postulated that the problem can be resolved by securing an alignment in partners’ interest which together with alignment in actions contributes to the bottom line through increased ability to yield an integrated response to the adaptation requirements stemming from disturbances in networks’ environment. A detailed discussion been administered on how opportunism can be controlled through formal measures like contracts, TSIs, vertical integration and game theoretic stipulations, and the informal controls like relational norms, identification, and culmination of trust and commitment

Diversity and Management of Plant Viruses Infecting Rice
No full textRice (Oryza sativa L., family Poaceae) is the leading cereal crop that is widely cultivated across the globe. Asia is the largest producer of rice with over 7.05 billion tons production in 2018, followed by the United States (38 million tons [MT]), Africa (33 MT), Europe (4 MT), and Oceania (0.65 MT). While the leading rice-producing countries are China (148.5 million MT) followed by India (116.42 million MT), Indonesia (36.7 million MT), Bangladesh (34.91 MT), and Vietnam (27.77 million MT). Rice supplies 21% of energy and 15% of protein to humans and plays a crucial role in the global food chain. However, rice cultivation is under continuous stress due to several biotic and abiotic constraints. Among the biotic constraints, rice-infecting viruses (RIVs) and their insect vectors cause enormous yield losses to worldwide rice production. RIVs encompass huge genomic diversity and include single-stranded, double-stranded, negative-sense single-stranded, negative-sense double-stranded, positive-sense single-stranded, and ambisense viruses. More than 15 RIVs are known and 10 of these RIVs pose a significant threat to Asian rice production. To sustain the global food security, it is of dire need to curb the RIVs and their insect vectors simultaneously. Several conventional to modern approaches have been employed to sustain the rice production against RIVs. Nonetheless, the contemporary CRISPR-Cas-based approaches and its expanding toolkit can offer unlimited utilities to improve rice yield and control RIVs and their insect vectors via transgene-free genome-editing capabilities. The importance of rice, RIVs, and their control strategies are discussed. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2022

Food label makes individual healthy
No full textAuthor of this article has examine the role of food label and its usage and understanding level among consumer by consulting past studies. The growing interest of processed and package food items has enhanced the significance of food label and scheme of label to deliver basic information to end consumers.Past studies have indicated that food label is not merely a printed material but a source of awareness about healthy and nutritional
food selection.Researchers have uncovered the fact that usage and understanding of food label and nutritional information label varies country to county, culture to culture and consumer to consumer.Therefore results about relationship between food label usage, at point of purchase and healthy food selection yet unclear and need to be
