This research aims to develop teaching practice program model for mechanical engineering education teacher trainees of State University of Surabaya. This research applied research and development (R & D) design by Borg & Gall in ten steps which are classified into two stages: research and data collection and product development. The research and data collection were conducted by applying qualitative approach through observation, interview, documentation on seven State ‘LPTK’, education office, teacher profession association, teaching practice student, teaching practice supervising lecturer, headmaster, and teacher tutor. The data analysis in this stage was conducted based on the technique developed by Miles and Huberman. Data validity was tested with data triangulation using double sources as comparison. The product development stage included model pre-design making, introductory test, model revision, model test, model revision, field test, and final model revision. First stage model test was conducted in mechanical engineering department with three vocational schools. The second stage model test was conducted in mechanical engineering department with six vocational schools. The last  is dissemination stage in the form of spreading the model yielded from the product development to professionals, authorities, and policy makers. The result at this research is a teaching practice model called “KPrIP2” which consists of four main product components. “K” means partnership between Mechanical Engineering Department of State University of Surabaya and the education office of province/ regency/city in continuous planning, action, and evaluation. “Pr” means pre-teaching practice in which the students do introductory activities in vocational schools to observe and coordinate with the school’s department to determine who will be the teacher tutor and what material/subject to be used in the teaching practice II. “I” means that all pre-teaching practice activities, starting from classroom peer-teaching, laboratory peer-teaching, microteaching, and real teaching in vocational school, are conducted individually and independently. “P2” means that teaching service activities must be supervised by competent/professional advisors, i.e. who have the same pedagogical and major background with the students who do the teaching practice and play role as the supervising lecturer of teaching practice I which is continued to be the advisor in teaching practice II. Teaching practice model “KPrIP2” is claimed to be effective to reach the teaching practice objectives but inefficient in budgeting.

The Mechanical Engineering Department at California State University, Sacramento (CSUS) has completed the design and constructed a $250,000 Instructional Cogeneration Laboratory devoted solely to undergraduate education. This facility will serve about 100 students per year in the Department’s Mechanical Engineering (ME) and Mechanical Engineering Technology (MET) programs. The major components are a 75 kW natural gas fired gas turbine-generator connected to a electrical load bank, a waste heat boiler, four heat exchangers, an absorption chiller and an existing cooling tower. Computer based data acquisition will be used to monitor pressures, temperatures, flows and stack emissions. This project has provided an excellent learning experience for ME and MET students in their senior project classes. Initial laboratory exercises will measure performance of the major pieces of equipment; future plans call for developing a series of heat transfer experiments.

The product concept is crucial in new product development (NPD) because it represents an NPD project’s goal. In this context, most prior studies have regarded product concept development as a linear process but some recent studies have revealed that it also has nonlinear characteristics. The objective of this paper is to explore why this inconsistency has arisen and to develop a model and theory that illustrate both aspects of product concept development. To achieve this, we adopt the perspective of organisational interpretation systems (Daft and Weick (1984). Toward a model of organisations as interpretation systems. Academy of Management Review, 9(2), 289–295) and explore eight product development cases. Consequently, we develop a three-stage model and find that the linearity or nonlinearity of product concept development is determined by each NPD team’s assumption about the environment. We also consider product innovativeness and function equivocality, and establish that these are related to the NPD teams’ assumptions about the environment.

The goal of this paper is to identify the features of visual activity and conceptual approaches to the process of depiction. The research was carried out through observation of students’ work at the Moscow Region State University (MRSU) on the creation of paintings within the traditions of realistic depiction. The article analyzes the tendencies typical for visual activity, as well as the main problems arising in the process of artistic work, gives examples from practice, suggests ways to overcome such problems and to master the algorithms of “analytical depiction”. Author’s revisions of the following concepts are introduced: “depiction” as a method of “analytical painting”, when the result of the work is the realization of the conceived, and “copying” as drawing without comparing the qualities of the depicted, when the result of the activity is random and is not the artistic image that was intended to be created. The results of the research contribute to the theory of teaching professional art creativity, and to the understanding of theoretical problems of art and arts education. The materials can be used in teaching practice.

Diverse Culture

Indonesia is a country that has a diverse culture, ethnicity, language, and rich tourism potentials. However, many people abroad who do not know about the diversity of Indonesian culture. The younger generations were much less aware of even less have sufficient of the richness of the culture of Indonesia. The knowledge about Indonesian culture of Japanese Language Education students Semarang State University, is still inadequate, so they can not be explained to the Japanese society apropiately, not good enough. Therefore students need to be given education by developing blog that contains Indonesian culture which is written in Japanese. The purpose of this study was developing a blog that can be a means of learning the culture. The method used is the Research and Development (R & D), with a step preliminary studies, product development, and product validation testing. Data was collected by questionnaire. Japanese expert validation results towards this blog are considered quite good as a means of studying Indonesian culture with an average score of 2.7 on the aspects of the format, quality, clarity, and clarity of language.

Abstract As part of the trend toward internationalization of higher education, governments and universities have introduced policies to encourage the expansion of English-medium instruction (EMI). However, top-down policies do not necessarily translate to teaching and learning practices. This article provides a case study examining the implementation of undergraduate EMI engineering programs at a state university in Turkey to explore the gaps that exist between national- and institutional-level EMI policies and classroom-level practices. Data were collected through policy documents, classroom observations, semi-structured interviews with teachers, and focus group discussions with students. The findings suggest that the implementation of EMI varies across classrooms, even within the same university department. Despite policies that envision one-language-at-a-time instruction, the EMI lecturers in this study varied in terms of language preference and teaching practice in their EMI lectures. Implications are discussed with respect to policy planning, teacher training, and the expansion of EMI across university contexts.

INFLUÊNCIA DA FORMA DE OBTENÇÃO DO SALDO DE RADIAÇÃO NA COMPARAÇÃO DE MÉTODOS DE ESTIMATIVA DA EVAPOTRANSPIRAÇÃO DE REFERÊNCIA  José Eduardo Pitelli Turco; Manoel Teixeira de Faria; Edemo João FernandesDepartamento de Engenharia Rural, Faculdade de Ciências Agrárias e Veterinárias, Universidade Estadual Paulista,  Câmpus de Jaboticabal, Jaboticabal , SP, [email protected]    1        RESUMO Uma maneira freqüentemente utilizada para verificar a eficiência de métodos de estimativa da  evapotranspiração de referência (ETo) em diferentes situações e locais é por meio de comparação com um método padrão. Porém, a utilização de diferentes métodos para a obtenção do saldo de radiação, empregado na estimativa da evapotranspiração, pode conduzir a resultados distintos. O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar a influência do método de obtenção do saldo de radiação na comparação de quatro métodos (FAO-Tanque Classe A, FAO-Radiação Solar, Makkink e Hargreaves-Samani) com o método padrão recomendado pela FAO (Penman-Monteith). A pesquisa foi desenvolvida em área experimental do Departamento de Engenharia Rural da FCAV/UNESP, Campus de Jaboticabal, SP, onde foi instalada uma estação meteorológica automatizada e um Tanque Classe A. Por intermédio de um sistema de aquisição de dados foram obtidas medidas da radiação solar global, saldo de radiação, temperatura do ar,  umidade relativa do ar e velocidade do vento. Os resultados indicam que as formas de obtenção do saldo de radiação podem alterar  a estimativa da evapotranspiração diária obtida pelo método de Penman-Monteith.  UNITERMOS: estação meteorológica automatizada, radiação solar, Penman-Monteith  TURCO, J.

INFLUENCE  OF  NET RADIATION OBTENTION METHOD COMPARED TO  THE  REFERENCE  EVAPOTRANSPIRATION ESTIMATE METHODS  2        ABSTRACT One way to verify the efficiency of evapotranspiration reference (ETo) estimate methods in different conditions is through the comparison to a standard method. However the utilization of several methods to obtain the net radiation using evapotranspiration reference  estimate, can end up in different results. The purpose of this paper was to evaluate the influence of the net radiation obtention method compared to four methods (FAO – Class A pan, FAO – Radiation, Makkink and Hargreaves-Samani) to the Penman-Montheith method which is considered a standard method by FAO. The research was carried out at an experimental area of the Rural Engineering Department of FCAV/São Paulo State University,  Jaboticabal, SP, Brazil. Global net radiation, air temperature, air relative humidity, and  wind speed were obtained using an automated weather station equipped with sensors. The results showed that the net radiation obtaintion methods can alter the daily evapotranspiration estimate obtained by the Penman-Montheith method. KEYWORDS:  automated  weather station, solar radiation, Penman-Monteith
