<span>This research aimed to report the need for Islamic-based English teaching materials for the Muhammadiyah junior high Schools, specified for reading skill. Data collection techniques in this research were the semi-structured interview and focus group discussion with four English teachers as participant form the Muhammadiyah schools. Data analysis was conducted by interactive data collection, data reduction, data presentation and conclusion or verification. This research concluded that the needs of developing Islamic based English teaching material are necessary for the Muhamamadiyah schools to achieve the national education goal and for Islamic faith itself. The development based on text-based approach by replacing content with Islamic-related content, Islamic discourse, <br /> integrated language skill, use student-centered teaching and also increasing cultural awareness.</span>
In the last decade, the development of technology has been growing rapidly. Internet—as a part of technology—became one of the very important things for many people. The usage of internet had been increasing in the last few years. It happened to people with various backgrounds and ages around the world. There is an interesting phenomenon that nowadays internet usage behavior is not only happened to adult but also happened to student at school. Some studies have found that internet usage had negative effect on student’s academic performance. But another study emphasized that positive internet usage behavior gave significant effect on academic outcome. In this study, we distinguish internet usage behavior into two categories, viz. general internet user and professional internet user. General internet user refers to internet usage behavior that focus on communication and entertaining purposes. Otherwise, professional internet user refers to productive activities in using internet like searching for information and doing some works that are relevant to assist finishing academic’s tasks. This study aims to find the influence of internet usage—general and professional—on student’s academic performance in Indonesia. Internet usage behavior measured by 2019 Student’s National Examination Survey from Center for Educational Assessment Indonesia. While, student’s academic performance represented by 2019 Indonesian National Examination Score. In addition, studies found that student’s socio-economic status (SES) had influence on their pattern of internet use. Then, this study determined SES as control variable in order to find comprehensive explanation about impact of internet usage on student’s academic outcome.
Academic cheating occurs in the educational institution around the world. In Indonesia, cheating occurs in every education level, started from elementary school, middle school,until high education institution. This research tried to find the effect of attitude; organizational, nonorganizational, and intrinsic religiosity; extracurricular activity; education level and gender; on academi ccheating at middle school and university students In Jakarta. The sample of this research was 310 junio rhigh school, 328 senior high school ,and 415 university students with total number of sample was 1053. The result of this research using multiple regression analysis showed that all independent variables significant on academic cheating with total variance given to the model was 41,30%, and another 53,30% was influenced by other factor outside this research. Analysis using each variable found that attitude and education level significant on academic cheating; whereas three dimensions of religiosity (organizational, nonorganizational, and intrinsic), extracurricular activity, and gender was not significant on academiccheating.
Bumbang bay is one of the lobster fishing areas in Central Lombok District, where fishing is carried out at all times and has the potential to disrupt the sustainability of the population in the future. Data is collected from the stock of lobster stocks that are still in fishing cages. Potential risks and fishing pressure could be assessed through length and weight, growth, structure size and potential recruitment analysis. The results of the study found 6 species of lobsters, of which are 2 dominant species were pearl lobster (45.5%) and sand lobster (44.5%) of the total catch. The Length and weight relationship have a negative allometric pattern which is (pearls lobster b = 2.04 and sand lobster = 1.2). The growth rate is relatively slow with a growth rate coefficient of 0.2-0.49 per year. Therefore, recruitment per biomass from the population is also low and exploitation rate about 0.6. The population growth and recruitment relatively low and increasing the exploitation rate, potential to unsustainable of the lobster population in the future.AbstrakPerairan Teluk Bumbang adalah salah satu pusat perikanan lobster di Lombok Tengah, dimana penangkapan dilakukan setiap waktu dan berpotensi mengganggu keberlanjutan populasi dimasa yang akan datang. Potensi risiko dan tekanan penangkapan dapat dikaji melalui analisis panjang dan bobot, pertumbuhan, struktur ukuran dan potensi recruitment. Hasil penelitian ditemukan sebanyak 6 jenis lobster, dimana 2 jenis dominan yaitu lobster mutiara (45,5%) dan lobter pasir 44,5% dari total tangkapan. Hubungan panjang dan berat memiliki pola allometrik negatif (lobster mutiara b=2,04 dan lobster pasir =1,2). Pertumbuhan tergolong lambat dengan koefisien laju pertumbuhan 0,2-0,49 per tahun. Begitu juga recruitment per biomass dari populasi juga rendah dan eksploitasi tergolong tinggi yaitu 0,6. Kemampuan tumbuh yang lambat dengan recruitment yang rendah serta eksploitasi tinggi, potensial menganggu keberlanjutan populasi lobster dimasa yang akan datang.
This study aimed to analyze reading activities in “Bright 2” an English textbook for junior high school students grade VIII in Indonesia by using Bloom’s revised taxonomy. A content analysis was conducted to achieve the research purpose. The findings show that the textbook has dominant reading activities on the cognitive process “analyze” 27% and “apply” 21% of the total 145 reading activities, respectively. The number of higher and lower cognitive processes in this textbook is almost balanced on 49% of higher order thinking skills and 51% of lesser order thinking skills correspondingly. There is a slight difference between the number higher thinking process and lower thinking process since most reading activities are on “analyze”, which is belong to the higher thinking process while the second most frequent reading activities are “apply”, the lower thinking process. Meanwhile, “apply” and “analyze” is placed on the 3rd and 4th in the taxonomy, it means that the textbook emphasizes the middle cognitive thinking process of Bloom’s revised taxonomy, which is formed by “apply” and “analyze” thinking process.
