Communication Today
Cross-sectional studies on communication have been widely conducted by researchers from various fields. Besides the pros, contras also downplay our propositions. Hence, the essence of communication in various fields should meet in-depth understanding. This later encourages researchers in social science to study and even to test the beliefs that have been assumed to become evidence. It is vital to configure our perspectives in examining the links between various fields of communication as communication plays roles on professional and personal successes of people, as numerous studies have shown. This book sheds lights on how communication research are conducted in different research areas such as digital communication and digital marketing, language and identity, communication on journalism, communication in news and mass media, pedagogical communication, political communication, ethics and communication, tourism and communication, and women and communication. It is expected that this book can provide insightful perspectives for its readers.
Video-Editing for Speaking Class Materials: The Basics
The advancement of science and technology has a significant impact on the evolution of education. This is because it offers numerous advantages, such as making it easier to find learning resources, such as through media, multimedia, e-learning, mobile learning, and other platforms. The advantage of learning digitalization is that it increases students’ interest in learning activities, and teachers can manage how students choose to study, such as through video. Unfortunately, the lack of IT facilities and infrastructure controlled by educational institutions, as well as the high expenses of creating and purchasing IT infrastructure, make the use of IT in education challenging. This book therefore provides a straightforward description of how prospective teachers might supply teaching materials in the form of videos cheaply and easily. It further provides novice video creators with straightforward instructions for generating instructional movies using Kinemaster. In an effort to optimize digital resources for Indonesian education, it is intended that this book would give beneficial references for its readers.
Learning Environments in Speaking Classes
Learning environment is one of the primary determinants of the success of learning process. For the learning process to be effective, learning environments must be secure, motivating, and friendly to students. When talking about the learning environment, not only physical aspect like classroom condition and facilities are taken into account; but also non-physical aspects like teaching method, physiological, psychological, and other external factors are importantly considered. This book discusses a wide range of essential elements for the teaching and learning process, especially in Speaking Class for Beginners. The factors are the ones related to teaching method—student-centered, knowledge-centered, or assessment-centered; the ones related to the teachers’ way of teaching and learners’ way of learning; and several activities and materials suggested to be employed in promoting better learning environment in teaching speaking for beginners.
The Use Of Traditional Pond Farms For Mangrove Crab Cultivation
Mangrove crabs are a fishery commodity that has an important economic value. The high demand for crabs has led to a higher rate of the catching of wild crabs in the mangrove forests of North Kalimantan. If these activities are carried out in a non-sustainable manner without efforts to develop seed production, there will be an inevitable decline in the wild crab population in the future. Traditional pond farms in general are only used for the cultivation of shrimp and milkfish. Recently, due to a decrease in environmental capacity in traditional pond farms, there has been a decrease in the production of aquaculture. Thus, it is necessary to have an alternative crop to optimize the utilization of aquaculture ponds; namely, by cultivating mud crabs in them. This will help to break the recent disease cycles that have been plaguing the local shrimp farming businesses.
The Ecology of the Karamunting Plant
Karamunting plant (Melastoma malabathricum) grows wild and becomes a weed for smallholder plantations: coffee, cocoa, and oil palm. However, at one time it was used as a temporary painkiller on the limbs that were attacked by scorpions. Currently the Karamunting plant, known as the Kalimantan grape, has changed its function as a medicinal plant. The fruit plants that are stiff and have striking purple flowers contain flavonoid, steroid, interpenoid, galat tannins, katekat tannins, kunion, including mineral elements. No wonder if karamunting is able to control indigestion, diarrhea, hepatitis, vaginal discharge (leukorea), canker sores, menstruation, blood hemorrhoids, uterine bleeding, bloody poop, inflammation of blood vessels and diabetes. This book “Karamunting Ecology” specifically examines the Aspects of Karamunting Ecology, Protection and Conservation and Breeding of Karamunting. Population, Scarcity, Changes in Karamunting Status and Revegetation are also reviewed so that it is expected to provide a basic understanding for students or general readers.
The Introduction Of Fish Species Associated With Mangrove in North Kalimantan
Mangrove forest ecosystem in estuaries plays an important role for the life of living things in waters and land, in which mangrove ecosystem can function as a barrier to ocean waves, a source of fuel and food, recreation, fauna habitat and the richest carbon stock storage, especially in the tropics. Thus, this book aims to identify and inventory the environmental conditions of the waters in the mangrove forest in Kayan-Sembakung Delta, North Kalimantan Province. This book contains a description of the study of fish species found in the waters of Kayan-Sembakung Delta. It is hoped that this will provide an overview of the potential for diversity at the species level and become a database for better fisheries resource management strategies in North Kalimantan. Therefore, this book is present as a source of scientific reference that can be used as reference material for students, lecturers, and researchers who study aquatic biodiversity in coastal area and peat ecosystem.
Tidung Oral Literature
This book contains stories from Tidung tribe--a tribe residing in North Kalimantan. These stories were sought and compiled for readers to enrich their insights about Tidung oral literature in North Kalimantan.
Regional Government Law
This Regional Government Law book is highly recommended to be used as a reference book related to the provisions and laws that apply in the regional government order. This book also reviews regional government laws in countries that adhere to a federal and unitary system other than Indonesia. Detailed description of regional government in Indonesia is also written in this book based on reference sources and current laws. Complete information related to regional government makes this book not only as a reference book in universities, it can also be used as a reading by anyone who has a concern for regional government, especially in Indonesia.
How Words Mean
How Words Mean introduces a new approach to the role of words and other linguistic units in the construction of meaning. It does so by addressing the interaction between non-linguistic concepts and the meanings encoded in language. It develops an account of how words are understood when we produce and hear language in situated contexts of use. It proposes two theoretical constructs, the lexical concept and the cognitive model. These are central to the accounts of lexicalrepresentation and meaning construction developed, giving rise to the Theory of Lexical Concepts and Cognitive Models (or LCCM Theory).Vyvyan Evans integrates and advances recent developments in cognitive science, particularly in cognitive linguistics and cognitive psychology. He builds a framework for the understanding and analysis of meaning that is at once descriptively adequate and psychologically plausible. In so doing he also addresses current issues in lexical semantics and semantic compositionality, polysemy, figurative language, and the semantics of time and space, and writes in a way that will be accessible tostudents of linguistics and cognitive science at advanced undergraduate level and above.
Teaching Cooperative Learning
Winner of the 2004 Critics' Choice Award presented by the American Educational Studies Association Teacher educators from ten institutions and programs in the United States, Canada, and Germany describe the ways in which they have changed teacher preparation to more fully incorporate cooperative learning concepts. Analytical commentaries on the programs highlight the learning experience of these programs as well as underlying issues of needed reforms in teacher education. Included among best practices in education, cooperative learning may require a shift in program philosophy and disciplinary areas to meet the challenge of complex organizations and diverse student populations. As the essays in the volume demonstrate, a new alignment of field experiences to provide support for novices to implement cooperative strategies, and to receive timely and effective supervision for these attempts, may also be required.
