Pemanfaatan E-journal Dalam Memenuhi Kebutuhan Informasi Ilmiah Di Kalangan Civitas Akademik Universitas Hasanuddin

This research aims to describe and examine the utilization of e-journal in meeting the needs of scientific information among the academics of Hasanuddin University. The focus of this research orients to analysis of the forms of e-journal utilization, the process of e-journal utilization, the responses and impacts arising from e- journal utilization, and the factors influencing the effectiveness of e-journal utilization in meeting the needs of scientific information among the academics of Hasanuddin University. In this study, data collecting is carried out through interviews, observation, and library studies. Data sourced from 26 informants i.e. 8 lecturers, 8 staff, 8 university students, and 2 librarians working for e-journal service as well as documents of UPT Perpustakaan Unhas. Result data of interview is analyzed by the reduction of data, the presentation of data, and the drawing of conclusion. Result data of observation is presented in images (photos). Result data of library studies is presented in quotations to affirm the research findings. The results of this research show that the form of e-journal utilization by academics is vary as it is influenced by the varied purpose and benefits. The process of e-journal utilization is done to obtain scientific information by following the procedures. For academics, e-journal is a very important service and helpful in educational process. The utilization of e-journal among the academics is strongly influenced by two main factors i.e. efforts that have been undertaken by UPT Perpustakaan in giving service and handling the flaws in service giving of e-journal utilization to academics

Intensitas Komunikasi Pembelajaran dalam Mengukur Keberhasilan Program Pendidikan Paket B di Desa-desa Pesisir Kecamatan Belang

The research aimed to investigate the communication intensity, learning result, and the relationship between the communication intensity and learning result in the Packet B education program at the coastal villages, Belang district, South East Minahasa regency. Samples investigated in the research were the students of Packet B education program of academic year 201212013. Method used in the research was the quantitative descriptive. The research result indicates that there is the relations'hip between the communication intensity and learning result. The result of the simple linear regression analysis indicates the R Square value of 0.433. This indicates that the variation of the independent variable of the communication intensity gives the contribution as much as 43.3% on the dependent variable of the learning result

Pengaruh Pembelajaran Drill dalam Menumbuhkan Kemampuan Public Speaking (Retorika) Pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris Siswa Sman 5 Makassar

Techniques English learning in school still can not provide satisfactory results for now. This study aims to determine what effect the application of learning techniques drill on the ability of public speaking (rhetoric) in learning English in SMAN 05 Makassar. This study uses an experimental approach with quantitative research methods. Data collected through tests and questionnaires. Data were analyzed using T test, simple regression and Pearson Product Moment Correlation SPSS 20.0 for windows. The results showed the Accuracy in terms of aspect shows the pre-test of 62.85% and a post-test after getting the results of 77.14%. From the aspect of Fluency showed pre-test results of 57.14% and a post-test after getting the results of the post-test 77.14%. In Comprehensibility aspect shows the pre-test of 74.28% and a post-test after getting the results of 54.28%. The average difference between the post-test and pre-test is highly significant sebesar1,2563.

It was concluded that the effect of the application of learning techniques drill in growing public speaking skills (rhetoric) in English language learning class X MIA 3 in SMA 5 Makassa

Self-Calibration Methods for Uncontrolled Environments in Sensor Networks: A Reference Survey

Growing progress in sensor technology has constantly expanded the number and range of low-cost, small, and portable sensors on the market, increasing the number and type of physical phenomena that can be measured with wirelessly connected sensors. Large-scale deployments of wireless sensor networks (WSN) involving hundreds or thousands of devices and limited budgets often constrain the choice of sensing hardware, which generally has reduced accuracy, precision, and reliability. Therefore, it is challenging to achieve good data quality and maintain error-free measurements during the whole system lifetime. Self-calibration or recalibration in ad hoc sensor networks to preserve data quality is essential, yet challenging, for several reasons, such as the existence of random noise and the absence of suitable general models. Calibration performed in the field, without accurate and controlled instrumentation, is said to be in an uncontrolled environment. This paper provides current and fundamental self-calibration approaches and models for wireless sensor networks in uncontrolled environments

Tinjauan Hukum Media Massa terhadap Penggunaan Software Bajakan di Kalangan Mahasiswa di Kota Makassar

This research to analyze the understanding, response, and strengthen the laws of mass media including infringement of communication ethics among the students, also precautionary and action to the case. The research is carried out to several students of Laws Faculty of Hasanuddin University. The informants was chosen purposely (purposive sampling), and the method used in colecting data are library research and field research which contain of observation, in depth interview, questionnair, documentation. Data collection analyzed with interactive model of Miles and Huberman. The result of this research indicated that most of people (students) in Makassar have a comprehensive understanding of Information and Communication Technology's advancement including piracy and the uses of pirated software. Its also shown that they are the majority of active users. However, this research found many of them still use the pirated software, and even pirate the software themselves, with various reasons such as a price, easy to find, needs, and lack of controll and the misuse of their knowledge and ability. So, all the associated elements have to pay more attention and discuss either the recent laws should be revised or formulate the new laws which will regulate whole activities in the cyberspace. Thus, the socialization of information and communication technology advancement effects should be taken as an actual action, related to the development of law enforcer's infrastructure, in order the process of handling such as case can be taken immediately
