This study examines participating tutors’ four-year feedback on a faculty-embedded tutor training program using structural equation modeling. Data from 333 tutors across all four departments in the Faculty of Business and Economics was used. Results indicate that the quality of the training session directly influences tutors’ perceived need for further skills development training and that the partial effect of facilitator effectiveness on the latter is not significant. This indicates that tutors’ indication of their future need for relevant skills in teaching and use of technology is highly influenced by the quality of the training session and much less on the facilitator’s effectiveness in delivering it. This has implications for both the way the tutor training program is perceived and the redevelopment of the questionnaire in the future.


Preference advertisement is a promotional system in which marketer claims the superiority of their product or brand over competing product(s) or brand, directly or indirectly. Preference advertisement helps in comparing alternative brands on bases of features, price, and other distinctive information. Brand equity is the total worth of the brand. Brand equity can be measured in two different perspective i.e. cognitive psychology is the attribute perception that is related to the awareness regarding the brand features and associations whereas another information economics is associated towards strong brand name which is created through the quality of the product and good quality generates a premium prices for the brand. In the monetary terms it’s the value that the organization expects from the brand. Preference advertisement can either be transferred directly to the brand. The objective of this study is to analyze the impact of preference advertisement in building the brand equity. Therefore to achieve the objective, different analysis tools used in the study are: mean, confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling technique. The finding shows that preference advertisement has a significantly positive impact on building the brand equity.

AbstractThe purpose of this study was to assess the influence of learning in a higher education institution and the type of institution, on the religiosity of Muslim Millennial students in Indonesia. In this study, religiosity is defined using an Islamic theoretical framework and divided into two sub-variables: hablumminallah and hablumminannas behavior, which serve as dependent variables hablumminallah behavior also serve as an intervening variable. Thus, this work used the Structural Equation Modeling technique using 292 samples to analyze direct and indirect influences. The findings indicated that higher educational institutions directly affect the habluminallah behavior, but not on the habluminannas behavior. While this has an indirect effect on hablumminannas behavior, it is mediated by hablumminallah behavior. It suggests that the level of students' hablumminallah behavior, which is high, makes the higher educational institutions potentially affect the students' hablumminannas too. Moreover, this study used the One-way Anova test to determine whether there are differences in the socio-religious milieu and student religiosity of Islamic and non-faith-based universities. The findings indicate that religious facilities are superior in non-faith-based universities to those in Islamic universities, whereas Islamic subject professors' roles and management support are identical. , there is no difference in the behavior of hablumminallah and hablumminannas students. This shows that if a university provides adequate religious facilities, both Islamic and non-faith-based universities will encourage students' religiosity similarly. AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis pengaruh perguruan tinggi terhadap religiusitas mahasiswa muslim milenial di Indonesia. Penelitian ini menggunakan kerangka teori dengan pendekatan Islami dimana religiusitas terbentuk dari dua sub variabel yaitu perilaku habluminallah dan hablumminannas sebagai variabel terikat, dimana perilaku hablumminallah juga sebagai variabel antara. Karenanya, untuk dapat menganalisis pengaruh langsung dan tidak langsung, penelitian ini menggunakan teknik Structural Equation Modelling dengan 292 sampel. data. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa secara langsung, perguruan tinggi hanya mempengaruhi perilaku habumminallah mahasiswa, namun tidak perilaku hablumminannasnya. Sedangkan secara tidak langsung, perguruan tinggi mampu mempengaruhi perilaku hablumminannas mahasiswanya yang dimediasi oleh perilaku hablumminallahnya. Hal ini mengindikasikan bahwa perilaku hablumminallah mahasiswa yang tinggi, menjadikan perguruan tinggi berpotensi mempengaruhi perilaku hablumminanas mahasiswanya pula. Penelitian ini juga melakukan uji One-way Anova untuk menganalisis apakah terdapat perbedaan kondisi sosial keagamaan di lingkungan kampus dan perilaku religius mahasiswa di universitas Islam dengan di universitas Umum. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa fasilitas keagamaan di universitas Umum lebih tinggi dibandingkan universitas Islam. Yang mengejutkan, tidak terdapat perbedaan perilaku habluminallah maupun hablumminannas antara mahasiswa universitas Islam dengan Umum. Hal ini mengimplikasin bahwa, jika fasilitas keagamaan di lingkungan universitas memadai, maka baik universitas Islam maupun Umum akan efektif mempengaruhi religiusitas mahasiswanya.How to Cite: Suzanawaty, L., Aisyah, M., Umiyati.

Much eighteenth-century Dissenting educational activity was built on an older tradition of Puritan endeavour. In the middle of the seventeenth century, the godly had seen education as an important tool in spreading their ideas but, in the aftermath of the Restoration, had found themselves increasingly excluded from universities and schools. Consequently, Dissenters began to develop their own higher educational institutions (in the shape of Dissenting academies) and also began to set up their own schools. While the enforcement of some of the legal restrictions that made it difficult for Dissenting institutions diminished across the eighteenth century, the restrictions did not disappear entirely. While there has been considerable focus on Dissenting academies and their contribution to debates about doctrinal orthodoxy, the impact of Dissenting schools was also considerable.
