Konsep pendidikan mental anak : telaah pemikiran Abdullah Nashih Ulwan dalam kitab Tarbiyah al-Aulād fī al-Islām
No full textmenekankan kepada jiwa anak. jiwa adalah ruh. Ruh agar manusia dapat bersemangat, ruh agar manusia selalu bahagia, ruh agar manusia dapat menjalankan tanggungjawab dan kewajiban sebagai seorang hamba Allah swt. sehingga pendidikan ini sangat penting untuk dilakukan oleh para pendidik, baik orangtua, guru, maupun masyarakat.
Penelitian ini pada intinya mengambil fokus permasalahan bagaimana konsep pendidikan mental anak menurut Abdullah Nashih Ulwan?. Pendidikan ini merupakan pendidikan yang jarang sekali terdengar di dunia pendidikan. Pendidikan yang hampir sama dan sering di bahas dalam dunia pendidikan misalnya pendidikan karakter dan pendidikan akhlak. Oleh karena itu pedidikan mental yang semacam ini ini perlu diperkenalkan. Salah satu tokoh pendidikan Islam yang secara jelas membahas pendidikan seperti ini adalah Abdullah Nashih Ulwan, dengan judul “tanggung jawab pendidikan mental” di kitab karangannya.
Secara garis besar isi dari pendidikan mental yang Ulwan berikan adalah untuk menghindarkan anak sejak kecil dari sifat-sifat negatif yang membelenggu kepribadiannya. Sifat-sifat negatif tersebut misalnya penakut, iri, dengki, rendah diri, dan pemarah. Sifat sifat tersebut muncul karena perlakuan orangtua yang salah, misalnya menakut-nakutinya dengan hantu, setan, pocong, jin, dan lain-lain sejak kecil. Atau juga membanding-mandingkan antara anak satu dengan anaknya yang lain. selanjutnya, gangguan mental tersebut juga dapat disebabkan oleh faktor lain. misalnya cacat, miskin, yatim, dan lain-lain.
Untuk mensukseskan pendidikan mental ini, maka menurut ulwan yang harus berperan adalah semuanya, baik keluarga, sekolah, masyarakat, pemerintah, dan pridadi diri sendiri. Dari pribadi diri sendiri harus ada niatan untuk selalu mejadi lebih baik. Didukung oleh orangtua, masyarakat, dan pemerintah yang memberikan motivasi, perhatian, perlakuan, penanganan yang benar.
Pada saat ini tidak jarang didapati anak yang kelihatan sedih, frustasi, murung, minder, menjadi begal, mencuri, dan lain-lain. semua itu bukan semata-mata salah anak. bisa jadi didikan orangtua yang salah. Lingkungan yang tidak mendukung atau bisa juga karena sebab ketidaktenangan jiwa seseorang. oleh karena itu penelitian ini sangat relevan untuk diterapkan pada zaman sekarang
Bilateral and unilateral arm training improve motor function through differing neuroplastic mechanisms: a single-blinded randomized controlled trial
No full textBACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:
This randomized controlled trial tests the efficacy of bilateral arm training with rhythmic auditory cueing (BATRAC) versus dose-matched therapeutic exercises (DMTEs) on upper-extremity (UE) function in stroke survivors and uses functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to examine effects on cortical reorganization.
METHODS:
A total of 111 adults with chronic UE paresis were randomized to 6 weeks (3×/week) of BATRAC or DMTE. Primary end points of UE assessments of Fugl-Meyer UE Test (FM) and modified Wolf Motor Function Test Time (WT) were performed 6 weeks prior to and at baseline, after training, and 4 months later. Pretraining and posttraining, fMRI for UE movement was evaluated in 17 BATRAC and 21 DMTE participants.
RESULTS:
The improvements in UE function (BATRAC: FM Δ = 1.1 + 0.5, P = .03; WT Δ = -2.6 + 0.8, P < .00; DMTE: FM Δ = 1.9 + 0.4, P < .00; WT Δ = -1.6 + 0.7; P = .04) were comparable between groups and retained after 4 months. Satisfaction was higher after BATRAC than DMTE (P = .003). BATRAC led to significantly higher increase in activation in ipsilesional precentral, anterior cingulate and postcentral gyri, and supplementary motor area and contralesional superior frontal gyrus (P < .05). Activation change in the latter was correlated with improvement in the WMFT (P = .01).
CONCLUSIONS:
BATRAC is not superior to DMTE, but both rehabilitation programs durably improve motor function for individuals with chronic UE hemiparesis and with varied deficit severity. Adaptations in brain activation are greater after BATRAC than DMTE, suggesting that given similar benefits to motor function, these therapies operate through different mechanisms
KOMPETENSI GURU MENURUT ABU HAMID AL-GHAZALI: RELEVANSINYA DENGAN PENDIDIKAN DI ERA MODERN
No full textThis study aims to explore teacher competence according to Al-Ghazali's view and relate it to modern education. This research is an analytical study of teacher competence according to Al-Ghazali which is in the book Ihya' 'Ulum al-Din about educators. Among the teacher's competencies according to Al-Ghazali is having a sense of affection for their students. In the modern era like now, this competency is expected to be possessed by teachers. This hope, at least, arises because of cases of violence and sexual harassment perpetrated by teachers against their students. The teacher, who should be a role model, actually acts and acts immorally. This is a very worrying fact. Al-Ghazali, one of the famous Muslim figures with his title as hujjatul Islam, has contributed several thoughts related to educator competence. His thoughts are certainly very interesting to be studied in more depth. In more detail, the competencies suggested by Al-Ghazali to be possessed by an educator, will be explained in this article
Quelques considérations sur les sept rois de Rome (I)
No full textThe author takes again into consideration the question about the royal period of Rome.
He reverses the usual interpretation according to which it is the traditional list of seven kings of Rome that has permitted to establish the date of Rome’s foundation by a retrospective calculation : in the author’s opinion the foundation’s date is pre-existent in the annalistic tradition and it is from this date that the kings’ list, based on the «empirical principle of generations » , was formed. The author reaches two conclusions : 1. the succession to the throne of Rome happened from grandfather to grandson ¢ 2. the women had an essential part in this process. This scheme works only if the first chief of Roman community is identified as Hostilius (the Romulus’ fellow-soldier) and this Hostilius as the grandfather of Tullus Hostilius, the first king of Rome.Cairo Giambattista.

Des rois, du patrimoine et de la démocratie au Bénin
No full textDans cet article, je m’interroge sur le retour des rois dans l’espace public au Bénin. En effet, depuis les premiers temps de la colonisation, les royautés précoloniales sont sous le regard attentif des gouvernants qui, en les patrimonialisant, s’arrogent leur puissance. Mettant en regard la théorie de Louis Marin de la re-présentation comme pouvoir à travers quelques portraits de rois ayant émergé depuis la Conférence nationale avec la théorie de Claude Lefort du lieu du pouvoir en démocratie comme place vide, j’émets l’hypothèse selon laquelle le roi comme représentation de l’autorité précoloniale se nourrit d’images de puissance qui alimentent la démocratisation et les processus de décentralisation dans le Bénin contemporain.In this paper, the author examines the return of kings to the public arena in Benin. Indeed, since the very beginning of colonization, the pre-colonial kingdoms have been under the watchful eyes of the rulers who, by making them heritage, lay claim to their power. The author sets out the idea that the king, as a representation of pre-colonial authority builds himself up through images of power, which nourish democratization and the processes of decentralization in contemporary Benin. Thus, she looks closely at Louis Marin’s concept of representation as power through a few portraits of kings, who emerged after the National conference discussing it in the context of Claude Lefort’s theory of the locus of power in democracy as an empty space.En este artículo, el autor cuestiona el regreso de los reyes en el espacio público de Benín. Efectivamente, desde los primeros momentos de la colonización, las realezas pre-coloniales han sido atentamente observadas por los gobernantes quienes al patrimonializarlas se atribuyeron sus poderes. Contrastando la teoría de Louis Marin sobre la re-presentación en tanto que poder a través de los perfiles de reyes que surgieron desde la Conferencia nacional, con la teoría de Claude Lefort del sitio del poder en democracia en tanto que lugar vacio, K. Talle sostiene la hipótesis que el rey en tanto que representación de la autoridad pre-colonial se nutre de imágenes de poder que alimentan la democratización y los procesos de descentralización en el Benín contemporáneo
Athaliah, les chevaux et la mort : 2 Rois 11,13-16 à l’aune des études féministes et animales bibliques
No full textDans cet article, l’autrice traite des derniers moments d’Athaliah (2 Rois 11,13-16) à la lumière des études féministes et animales bibliques. En 2 Rois 11,1-20, la reine, victime d’un coup d’État, est assassinée. Au contraire de plusieurs rois d’Israël et de Judah au combat, la souveraine n’est jamais représentée à cheval ni sur un char de guerre : l’association des équidés et de la royauté se noue autrement. L’autrice explore donc l’intimité des corps féminin et équins dans un contexte de violence. Un détail textuel des plus intrigants du récit d’Athaliah retiendra notre attention. En effet, après son expulsion du temple de YHWH (v. 15), on lui fait emprunter la « voie de l’entrée des chevaux » afin de la mettre à mort (v. 16). L’autrice montrera que ce positionnement d’Athaliah dans le monde équin enclenche un processus d’« animalisation » de la souveraine qui affecte aussi son genre.In this article, the author deals with the last moments of Athaliah (2 Kings 11:13-16) using biblical feminist and animal studies. In 2 Kgs 11:1-20, the queen, the victim of a coup d’état, is murdered. Contrary to many fighting Israelite and Judean kings, Athaliah is never presented on horseback or on a war chariot: the connection between equids and kingship is established in a different way. The author therefore explores the intimacy between female and equine bodies in a violent context. The focus is on an intriguing textual detail of Athaliah’s story: after being expelled from YHWH’s temple (v. 15), the queen is led through the “path of the horses’ entrance” to be put to death (v. 16). The author demonstrates that Athaliah’s positioning in this horsey space sets off the queen’s animalization, a process which also affects her gender.Este artículo examina los momentos finales de Atalía (2 Reyes 11:13-16) a la luz de los estudios feministas y animales bíblicos. En 2 Reyes 11:1-20, la reina, víctima de un golpe de estado, es asesinada. A diferencia de varios reyes de Israel y Judá en combate, la soberana nunca es representada a caballo ni en un carro de guerra. La asociación entre los equinos y la realeza se establece de forma diferente. Este artículo explora esta intimidad de los cuerpos femenino y equino en un contexto de violencia. Uno de los detalles textuales más intrigantes de la historia de Atalía llamará nuestra atención. De hecho, tras su expulsión del templo de YHWH (v. 15), se la obliga a tomar el « camino de la entrada de los caballos » para ser ejecutada (v. 16). Este artículo busca demostrar que esta posición de Atalía en el mundo equino desencadena un proceso de « animalización » de la soberana que también afecta a su género
Anne Hebert's Le tombeau des rois
No full textDuring the forties, when Anne Hubert was writing the poems of Le Tombeau des rois Quebec writers and critics (most of whom were male) were consumed by the oppression of the Duplessis era. Hubert's cousin, Hector de Saint-Denys Garneau felt so greatly the pressure to live a life defined by the Other, that his pain not only produced great anguish, but inspired very notable poetry. His metaphor of the French Canadian as a caged bird resurfaces in Hubert's work. In fact, the motif of the bird appears throughout Le Tombeau des rois. The bird as a guide, although blinded, leads the heroine to the place where she must confront death: the tomb. The tomb or cave is, however, not only the place of death, but also of rebirth. The tomb becomes the "womb" of the Mother where sisters and brothers are reborn. Images of sacrifice, of rebirth, reappear constantly in women's literature and mythology. The aim of this thesis is to reinterpret these motifs and others found in Anne Hubert's poetry. It is part of the feminist project to revise the mythology of Patriarchy so that women and women's writing might be 'read' authentically. This approach is an attempt to break down the critical walls which have defined Anne Hubert in a closed, patriarchal way.
Anne Hubert was writing while the oppressive forces of the Catholic Church suffocated women and men who were desperately searching out their own identity. Women were defined as either "mothers" or "virgins". Mothers had the responsability to maintain the French language and culture, while unmarried women, were burdened with the guilt of their "evil sex"; women were metaphorically stripped of their flesh so as not to be "temptresses". In Le Tombeau des rois, the heroine is torn between being the "good girl" and breaking free from the "house" which has confined her. Other women writers express the same struggle in their texts. I have attempted to search out some of the images and motifs which connect Anne Hubert to modern women writers, to pick up an intertextual thread which weaves through these texts and connects Hubert's own texts. By making these connections, I have attempted to highlight a hidden subtext, an "ucriture au fuminin" which has been concealed by the dominant criticism of of her work. Traditional critics of Anne Hubert's poems and prose have agreed that this woman has played an important role in the struggle for national identity. That is one interpretation. I have emphasized that women have been doubly exploited, and that Hubert's struggle towards the "feminine" has been hidden beneath the surface of traditional criticism. To crack the calm surface of the status quo, to dive down into the deep, unmapped waters, to follow the thread back to the "womb", is to accompany this author on her quest in Le Tombeau des rois.Arts, Faculty ofFrench, Hispanic, and Italian Studies, Department ofGraduat
Mada'in Salih, a Nabataean town in north west Arabia: analysis and interpretation of the excavation 1986-1990
No full textThis research concerns Mada'in Salih, an archaeological site in north-west Saudi Arabia. Historically, it was part of the Nabataean kingdom which flourished in northwest Arabia (Jordan, parts of Syria, Palestine and some parts of Saudi Arabia), with Petra in Jordan as its capital. The Nabataeans were famous for their trading role, as they transported frankincense and myrrh and exported balsam and bitumen. They built monumental tombs in Petra and Mada'in Salih as well as other public buildings such as temples theatres and baths. They were also famous for their skills in hydraulic engineering and the production of very thin, distinctively painted pottery. Mada'in Salih was an important station on the trade route which linked south Arabia with Mediterranean countries. The main feature of the site is the monumental tombs, which are about eighty in number, some of them dated and bearing inscriptions. Those inscriptions are in Aramaic and usually contain information about the owner name, legal rights, and occasionally the mason's name. Little was known about the site's history and other aspects such as the economy, culture, society and religions prior to the excavation. Various questions were raised which the thesis attempts to address. The archaeological work conducted on the site included a survey, several trenches around the town wall and in front of some of the tombs as well as an excavation in the settlement area. The excavation revealed a private house which furnished us with information regarding house planning, building techniques and materials. A large amount of pottery, small finds and coins were recovered, studied and classified. The results added some information to what was already known about the Nabataeans in general and Mada'in Salih in particular. The site had witnessed its peak during the first century A.D. As most previous archaeological work had been carried out in the northern parts of the Nabataean kingdom, the results of this excavation are important for comparative studies between this, the largest Nabataean settlement centre in the south, to the centres of the north. The trade which had been an important factor in the establishment of the site declined when the trade route was shifted from land to sea by the Romans during the last half of the first century A.D
Hypergeometric analysis of tiling-array and sequence data: Detection and interpretation of peaks
No full textProbing protein-deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is gaining popularity as it sheds light on molecular mechanisms that regulate the expression of genes. Currently, tiling-arrays and next-generation sequencing technology can be used to measure these interactions. Both methods generate a signal over the genome in which contiguous regions of peaks on the genome represent the presence of an interacting molecule. Many methods do exist to identify functional regions of interest (ROIs) on the genome. However the detection of ROIs are often not an end-point in research questions and it therefore requires data dragging between tools to relate the ROIs to information present in databases, such as gene-ontology, pathway information, or enrichment of certain genomic content. We introduce hypergeometric analysis of tiling-array and sequence data (HATSEQ), a powerful tool that accurately identifies functional ROIs on the genome where a genomic signal significantly deviates from the general genome-wide behavior. HATSEQ also includes a number of built-in post-analyses with which biological meaning can be attached to the detected ROIs in terms of gene pathways and de-novo motif analysis, and provides different visualizations and statistical summaries for the detected ROIs. In addition, HATSEQ has an intuitive graphic user interface that lowers the barrier for researchers to analyze their data without the need of scripting languages. We compared the results of HATSEQ against two other popular chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-Seq) methods and observed overlap in the detected ROIs but HATSEQ is more specific in delineating the peak boundaries. We also discuss the versatility of HATSEQ by using a Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 1 (STAT1) ChIP-Seq data-set, and show that the detected ROIs are highly specific for the expected STAT1 binding motif.Intelligent SystemsElectrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Scienc
An initial investigation on the use of ‘Return on Investment” in public relations practice
No full text‘Return on Investment’ (ROI) is usually defined in management literature as a measure of financial effectiveness that is concerned with the returns on capital employed in business (profit-making) activities. In public relations practitioner parlance, however, ROI appears to be used in a much looser form to indicate the results of activity. This mixed method research using an online survey instrument investigated practitioner understanding of the term, primarily in the UK. These findings resulted: 1) Two-thirds of PR practitioners use the term ROI when planning and evaluating communication activity; 2) ROIs related to communication objectives (66.7%) are more widely used than financial-related ROIs (12.8%); 3) There is a clear difference in ROI practices between consultants/freelances and in-house colleagues. Nearly three-quarters of consultants and freelances (73.1%) offer an ROI formula to clients but only 26.3% of in-house practitioners have one; and 4) On the oft-discussed question of an industry-wide ROI formula, only 35.6% supported the proposition with 64.4% opposed. However, the survey also found that practitioner concepts of ROI are very narrowly expressed, mainly in relation to media outputs
