COLLABORATIVE-COOPERATIVE LEARNING MODEL TO IMPROVE THEOLOGY STUDENTS’ CHARACTERS: IS IT EFECTIVE?
No full textThe Collaborative-Cooperative Learning Model (CCL) helps improve students’ characters. This
study is aimed at finding out the effectiveness of the CCL instructional model in improving the characters
of the theology students in the subject matter class Self Development. This study used a quasi-experimental
research design. The research sample consisted of 58 students of the Surabaya Excelsius Institute of
Theology. Data were collected through a pre-test and post-test for the experiment and control groups and
analyzed using an independent sample t-test on the SPSS software program of Amos 25. The results show
that (1) the CCL model was found to be able to improve students’ characters. Experts’ reviews concluded
that the CCL syntax could be categorized as having innovative aspects based on the rationality model on
the score of 3.29; (2) The CCL model was found to be effective in improving students’ characters by the
Mann-Whitney test (sig. = .012) and the paired sample t-tes (sig. = .000) showed a significant difference
in the mean scores; (3) the CCL model could improve the characters of self-discipline, social discipline,
and religious discipline in the theology students in the subject matter class Self Development and could
be used for subject matter classes with the same characteristics, be followed-up by research in wider
subject-matter contexts, and be integrated with research from other academic fields
QUALITY LEARNING COOPERATIVE LEARNING WITH PATTERN COLLABORATION TO IMPROVE THE CHARACTER
No full textThis study uses literature research. This study answers the question of the problem: how is the quality of
cooperative learning with the learning patterns of collaboration to improve the character? The findings of the
study are: cooperative learning is the basis working area limitation group while learning patterns of
collaboration is to develop cooperation of all members in achieving the goals even though among the members
there are pros and cons. This raises the quality of the cooperation process are: unity, ideals, and help each
other to improve the quality of the character of each member of the group

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
Safety reduction in anchor groups due to uneven crack distribution
No full textIn the present paper, the safety reduction in anchor groups composed of cast-in place headed anchors was experimentally investigated. In particular, groups of two anchors were installed in concrete members designed such that one of the anchors was located in a crack and the other one in plain concrete. The samples were loaded in tension, thus simulating a connection with clamped rotation under both monotonic and cyclic conditions. The results are commented and discussed demonstrating how the presence of uneven crack distribution could lead to a safety reduction, which should be properly taken into account in the design of anchor groups

The Right to Strike under the United States Constitution: Theory, Practice, and Possible Implications for Canada
No full textAnswering critics of the Canadian Supreme Court's judgment in B.C. Health, the author argues that the Court laid the foundation for a principled and durable doctrine protecting constitutional labour rights, one that goes directly to the heart of the matter — the inequality of workers’ power in the employment relation. In the author’s view, two paths could lead from B.C. Health to the recognition of Charter protec- tion for a right to strike: one that treats the right as an accessory to col- lective bargaining, and one that upholds the right directly on the basis of the Charter values of equality and participation. The author supports the latter approach, contending that constitutional rights should be defined in relation to fundamental values, in a way that is not contingent on time-bound or fact-sensitive assessments about the role of strikes within a particular collective bargaining regime. Although a Charter right to strike may involve the courts in difficult choices about when to defer to legislative policy decisions, and courts may lack the institutional capac- ity to deal effectively with labour law issues, the author points out that judges can look to ILO standards for expert guidance. Noting that the U.S. experience in this area might be of considerable use to Canadians, the author concludes by providing an overview of American case law concerning a constitutional right to strike.Peer reviewe
