AbstractThis study is aimed to analyze success of the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) System Merging in Chemical Company Singapore that acquired two companies. The success component of ERP system success is using DeLone and McLean success model with qualitative method. The research methodology used detail interview with project implementation team, ERP consultants (8 informants) to get more detail from ERP system merging with information and collected supporting data from the ERP system itself. The result shows that ERP System Merging succeed to increase the system quality of Chemical Company which acquired two companies into one ERP system. It was depicted by the increment of easiness on using the system. The information much more integrated and accurate after the ERP system merging. Meanwhile service quality was increased because of all incidents now monitored in one efficient log system and handled by experienced IT application support team.

Topically applied pharmacologic agents were used to alter skin sensitivity of unanesthetized dogs subjected to rapid changes in thermal state. The anesthetic pramoxine hydrochloride was utilized to depress peripheral sensitivity; menthol was used to enhance it. Application of these agents produced shifts in specific skin temperature at which activation and suppression of both panting and shivering occur. These changes were interpreted as indicating peripheral mediation in control of thermoregulatory end mechanisms. Both substances exhibited a greater effect on thermoregulatory responses to cooling than to heating. Consequently, one may infer that the peripheral cold-fiber effect exerts a greater influence on thermoregulatory end mechanisms than does the warm-fiber effect.

The construction industry is facing a data tsunami, while emerging information technologies (IT) show great potential for the effective processing of these data or information. However, a comprehensive review for technological change, the resulting process, and organizational changes in the Big Data context, especially from the angle of whole lifecycle of construction project, is lacking. To fill the void, related works published in the databases of Web of Science, Science Direct, and American Society of Civil Engineers library are systematically reviewed. The general trend in emerging IT application in terms of construction project management (CPM) phases, technology and application, and research topics are revealed. Following this analysis, the particularized proposals in relation to each of the main topics within CPM is discussed. Furthermore, according to the advances and limitations of the current literature, corresponding future agendas such as the implementation of comprehensive data-driven CPM scenario are proposed to bridge the gaps between theoretical research and practical demands.

The extended writing allowed the incorporation of the process into the assessment of writing skills and encouraged increased students autonomy. The research was conducted through a classroom action research (CAR) that comprising 18 students. The results of the student's writing text in the cycle 1 and cycle 2 had increased in different scores. The means scores in data source where 61.67 become 63.61 in cycle 1, and after revision, in the cycle 2, the mean score in cycle 2 was 74.72 by application of extended writing project assessment. The successful minimal criterion (KKM) was 70. It can be seen that the application of Extended Writing Project Assessment was increased significantly. The most obvious consequence of this is that the ideas presented by the students are better, and the time needed to complete an essay is much more efficient.

Recently, computational thinking has experienced a resurgence, due to the scientific and educational community has placed its focus of interest on it. However, there is a lack of consensus about what it is and how to work it. That has caused that the approach to computational thinking is addressed in different directions in educational fields. From technical approaches, the potential to be integrated in teachers´teaching strategy could be not considered; from transversal approaches, the possibilities in the field of didactics are included, but they incorporate different visions that makes it application difficult. In addition, new perspectives are incorporated, such as ”unplugged” computational thinking. Given this panorama, it is evident the need to address from the pedagogy, and specifically from the Educational Technology field, the topic of computational thinking, starting from the possibilities it has related to digital literacy and as a means to express ideas with technology; to the possibilities to be included in educational contexts around the use of learn with robotics.
