ABSTRAK Manajemen krisis sangat dibutuhkan oleh perusahaan yang sedang mengalami krisis khususnya di PT Dirgantara Indonesia (Persero). Manajemen krisis ini jika perusahaan mengalami krisis maka pihak manajemen harus mengembalikan kondisi perusahaan dengan menggunakan proses manajemen krisis ini. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui beberapa proses manajemen krisis yang telah dilakukan oleh Humas yaitu proses mengidentifikasi, mengisolasi dan mengendalikan krisis di PT Dirgantara Indonesia (Persero). Proses ini merupakan rangkaian dari strategi 3P yaitu strategi pencegahan, strategi persiapan dan strategi penanggulangan. Peneliti menggunakan konsep dari tahap strategi penanggulangan krisis dalam kondisi akut yaitu proses mengidentifikasi, mengisolasi, dan mengendalikan krisis. Penelitian ini menggunakan paradigma konstruktivisme dan metode kualitatif. Peneliti juga menggunakan pendekatan studi kasus yaitu mengenai suatu lembaga atau organisasi dengan berupa fenomena yang ada dan terjadi nyata di suatu lembaga atau organisasi. Hasil dari penelitian ini menerangkan bahwa proses mengidentifikasi yaitu mencari akar permasalahan,  proses mengisolasi ini bagaimana cara memberi pemahaman kepada internal dan eksternal, dan proses mengendalikan untuk memulihkan perusahaan yang mengalami krisi dan agar tidak terulang kembali krisis kepada perusahaan Crisis management is needed by companies that are experiencing a crisis, especially in Indonesian Aerospace (IAe).The management of this crisis if the company's crisis management it must restore the company to use the crisis management process. The purpose of this research is to know some crisis management process that has been done by Public Relations is the process of identifying, isolating and controlling the crisis in Indonesian Aerospace (IAe). This process is a series of strategies 3P such as prevention strategies, preparation strategies and coping strategies. Researchers use the concept of crisis coping strategies in acute conditions that is the process of identifying, isolating, and controlling the crises. This research uses constructivism paradigm and qualitative method. Researchers also use a case study approach that is about an institution or organization with a phenomenon that exists and occurs manifestly in an institution or organization. The results of this research explain that the process of identifying is to find the root of the problems, the process of isolating this how to give understanding to the internal and external, and the process of controlling to restore the company that suffered the crisis and so as not to repeat the crisis.

The aim of this study was to examine how a more inclusive framing of a crisis directs the actors’ understanding of a situation and identifies unrecognized actors in the crisis management process. Crises include various extreme situations and require appropriate management frameworks to be effectively managed. The research is based on interviews with personnel who responded to a school fire and focuses on their interpretations and actions during the incident. The results indicated that the informants framed the crisis as a school fire. Consequently, the incident commander and principal became the core actors. However, an unrecognized management frame was identified, representing teachers who, in response to the crisis, upheld and normalized educational functions. As the frame representing teachers did not fit the established discourse on crisis management, it was not recognized by others involved, hence ignoring the contributions of significant role-players in the operational and pedagogical management of the crisis.

In times of crisis, making efficient decisions needs an accurate awareness of the event context and strongly depends on the effective use and coordination of resources, people, and information, where information is owned by either response organizations or non-crisis expert public. In this age of advanced collaborative technologies, citizens' participation to the crisis management process has shifted from the passive one-way contribution of social networking data to more active participation by performing specific tasks related to crisis-data processing. This chapter presents a comprehensive approach for integrating the crowdsourcing process to the collaborative decisional process in crisis situations. Application of the proposal with a real-world case study of the desert locust plague provides evidence of the enabling role that the crowdsourcing paradigm plays in supporting decision makers within desert locust control organizations operating throughout vast, remote, and geographically problematic areas.

AbstractProblem-based learning as a teaching tool is now used globally in many areas of higher education. It provides an opportunity for students to explore technical problems from a system-level perspective and to be self-directed life-long learner which is mandatory for equipping engineering students with the skill and knowledge. This paper presents a case study illustrating the effectiveness of implemented Problem-based learning (PBL) during five semesters in the undergraduate programs of Textile Engineering in Ahsanullah University of Science and Technology (AUST). An assessment has been done on the basis of feedback from the students as well as their employers by conducting an empirical survey for the evaluation of PBL impact to enhance the student's competencies. The Evaluations indicate that students have achieved remarkable competencies through PBL practices which helped them to be competent in their professional life.

Abstract This paper presents a case study of a landslide with the potential to affect four operating high-pressure natural gas pipelines located in the south-central US state of Mississippi. This case study follows a landslide hazard management process: beginning with landslide identification, through pipeline monitoring using strain gauges with an automated early alert system, to detection of landslide movement and its effects on the pipeline, completion of a geotechnical subsurface investigation, conceptual geotechnical mitigation planning, landslide stabilization design and construction, and stress relief excavation. Each step of the landslide hazard management process is described in this case study.
