Motivation to learn is very complicated to be examined because it involves various aspects, including the psychology of learners. However, efforts to improve the motivation of learners is not impossible for every teacher. As one of these efforts, the researcher undertook a comparative study by examining the achievement of bunpou understanding in the class that used the quiz tests and did not use the quiz test. After that, we compared with the average of semester final exam grade of the two classes. The quiz tests were formatively conducted after mid term exam until semester final exam. The result of a class that uses a quiz test has a higher average grade than a class that does not use. The mid term exam is difficult than final exam, it causes the average of the grade of student went down. However, the class that does not use the quiz test has drop two fold than the class that used the quiz test. It can be assumed that the quiz test is one of the media that has a role to increase the extrinsic motivation of the basic learner in understanding bunpou.Keywords: learning motivation, quiz tests, roles, bunpou

Abstract. This article discusses the existence of print media during the Covid-19 pandemic. Now, many printed media have lost their readership significantly. The Covid-19 pandemic has become a disruption that has a negative impact on the print media industry. People choose to switch to digital media because it is easy and the information they need is faster. Changing the media used in conveying information will certainly have an impact on the future of the media itself. When the turnover of print media decreases, the print media company will go bankrupt / close and lay off employees and cut employee salaries. The method used in this article uses a qualitative descriptive approach by using a research procedure according to the latest available facts to solve a problem regarding the existence of print media during the Covid-19 pandemic. Based on the data obtained, it is explained that from 434 print media throughout January to April 2020, 71 percent of print media companies experienced a decrease in turnover of 40 percent when compared to the same period in 2019. Based on the data above, it can be seen that a decrease in media existence print during the COVID-19 pandemic. This decline certainly had an impact on the business turnover of advertisers, which resulted in a decrease in advertising budgets on various media platforms.Keywords: Covid-19, Existence, Print Media, PandemicAbstrak.

This study aims to investigate the potential similarities and differences of projections in different mainstream newspaper’s reports on similar events. Based on the theoretical framework of projection of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) and we used the corpus-driven approach to analyze quantitatively, this study chose People’s Daily Online, Global Times, as well as The Washington Post’s reports about two parades for celebrating National Day of China and US in 2019 to build four sub-corpora. It analyzed and discussed the projecting sources. The Mann-Whitney U test revealed that the differences in the distribution of projecting sources between the two mainstream newspapers were mainly reflected in the implicit projection source and the reporter projection source. The Media were the most important instituting projecting source for the two newspapers. While in terms of character sources, People’s Daily preferred to treat ordinary people as the main character projecting source and The Washington Post preferred to choose officials or parliamentarians.

Abstract The present work presents a comprehensive comparative study on the cooling performance of hot oil and molten KNO3- NaNO2-NaNO3 eutectic mixture quench media. The study was conducted using a cylindrical Inconel probe of 16? and 60mm length. Cooling curves at different locations in the probe were acquired using thermocouples- DAQ system. The temperature data was recorded in PC and was subsequently used to calculate spatially dependent transient heat flux at the metal quenchant interface. The heat extraction mechanism in hot oil and NaNO2 eutectic mixture was different. Quench heat transfer occurred in two stages namely boiling stage and convective cooling stage during quenching in molten NaNO2 eutectic mixture. In the case of hot oil, apart from these two stages, third stage of cooling namely vapor blanket stage was observed. A detailed study was conducted to compare magnitude and uniformity of heat extraction during each stage of quenching. Molten salt offered higher cooling rate and more spatial uniform cooling as compared to hot oil quench media. The non-uniformity in surface temperature during boiling stage in Inconel probe was 10 times lower in molten salt medium as compared to that observed in hot oil medium. However, the non-uniformity in surface temperature during convective cooling stage in both the media were comparable. Based on the distribution of characteristic cooling time (t85) calculated in quenched Inconel probe, higher and uniform hardness distribution is predicted in steel parts quenched in molten NaNO2 eutectic mixture media as compared.

<p>Ustaz Abdul Somad kembali menjadi sorotan khalayak karena dakwahnya yang kontroversial. Pada akhir Agustus 2019, video ceramah Ustaz Abdul Somad yang diunggah pada tahun 2016 yang berjudul “Hukum Melihat Salib” sempat viral di media sosial karena dianggap mengandung unsur Suku, Agama, Ras, dan Antargolongan (SARA). Video pendek yang berisi jawaban Ustaz Abdul Somad atas pertanyaan jamaah, mengandung konten yang menyinggung tentang salib sehingga menimbulkan respon negatif dari umat nonmuslim. Selain itu, ada video ceramah lain yang berjudul “Hukum Menonton Film Korea” yang juga menimbulkan respon negative bagi para penggemar KPop atau KPopers. Tulisan ini fokus pada bagaimana etika komunikasi dakwah Ustaz Abdul Somad yang dibangun berdasarkan perspektif Al Quran. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif-deskriptif. Subjek penelitiannya adalah dua video ceramah Ustaz Abdul Somad yang berjudul “Hukum menonton Film Korea” dan “Hukum Melihat Salib”. Sementara objek penelitian ini ialah retorika Ustaz Abdul Somad dalam video-video tersebut. Hasilnya, ceramah dalam kedua video tersebut mengandung prinsip etika komunikasi dalam Al Quran, dengan catatan ceramah tersebut dilakukan pada kelompok terbatas. Etika Al Quran yang dimaksud adalah prinsip bicara tegas dan jujur. Namun, jika dalam konteks media sosial yang bersifat general atau umum, maka pesan dakwahnya tidak sesuai dengan salah satu kode etik dakwah serta dinilai tidak efektif.</p><p> </p><p><em>Ustaz Abdul Somad returned to the media spotlight because of his preaching that triggered a negative response by other groups. At the end of August 2019, Ustaz Abdul Somad's video lecture uploaded in 2016 entitled "Hukum Melihat Salib" was viral on social media because it was considered to contain SARA elements. In the video footage, there is content that is offensive about the cross, giving rise to negative responses from non-Muslim communities. In addition, the lecture video entitled "Hukum Menonton Film Korea" also caused a negative response for KPopers. Therefore, this paper focuses on how the ethics of Ustaz Abdul Somad's missionary communication are built on the perspective of the Qur'an. This research uses a qualitative descriptive approach. His research subjects used Ustaz Abdul Somad's video lecture entitled "Hukum Menonton Film Korea" and "Hukum Melihat Salib". While the object of this research is the rhetoric of Ustad Abdul Somad in the videos. As a result, both videos contain ethical principles of communication in the Koran, if the lecture is aimed at a particular group. Unlike the case in social media that is universal (anyone, anytime and anywhere can be accessed), then the message of preaching is not </em><em>following</em><em> </em><em>one of the preaching code of ethics and has not been effective. </em></p>
