The purpose of this research is to develop a faith-based disaster geography module. The module is one source of learning for students, which can facilitate students to get information and easy to apply to the public, so it can be instrumental in facing disaster. The development study used a 4D model involving three steps namely: define, design, and develop. The instruments used are validation, activities and interviews. The define phase showed that the geography lecture material of disaster is in conformity with the standards of competence and achievement lecture. The results showed that the design module validation is valid enough according to the criteria and many improvements. However, the results described here is an initial validation, and therefore still need to be validated by disaster experts, educational experts and Indonesian language experts.

Research over the past two decades has increased the quality and quantity of tools available to produce genetically engineered animals. The number of potentially viable biomedical products from genetically engineered animals is increasing. However, moving from cutting-edge research to development and commercialisation of a biomedical product that is useful and wanted by the public has significant challenges. Even early stage development of genetically engineered animal applications requires consideration of many steps, including quality assurance and quality control, risk management, gap analysis, founder animal establishment, cell banking, sourcing of animals and animal-derived material, animal facilities, product collection facilities and processing facilities. These steps are complicated and expensive. Biomedical applications of genetically engineered animals have had some recent successes and many applications are well into development. As researchers consider applications for their findings, having a realistic understanding of the steps involved in the development and commercialisation of a product, produced in genetically engineered animals, is useful in determining the risk of genetic modification to the animal v. the potential public benefit of the application.

Scarcity is an instrument that is often used in crowdfunding. Crowdfunding is an alternative form of financing, especially for entrepreneurs in the early-stage development phase. This paper deals with the characteristics of profitable crowdfunding projects. Hereby, we examine the impact factors of crowdfunding’s profitability, with a special focus on limited availability (scarcity), depth of project description and the size of pledging goals as follows. Therefore, we analyze data from kickstarter.com, one of the world’s largest crowdfunding platforms, and used 494 projects and 4,224 pledge levels from the broad category technology as our database. Technology projects lend themselves particularly well to the study, as they usually contain the project result as a tangible return, thus facilitating or even enabling the monetary evaluation of the success in contrast to, for example, cultural projects. Hence, our sample includes 32% of pledge levels with limited availability. We provide empirical evidence that the limited availability in the crowdfunding projects in terms of scarcity management is positively related to the profitability of the included pledge levels. We conclude that crowdfunding projects with limited availability on pledge levels are more profitable for investors.

The UNESCO World Heritage city of Évora (Portugal) hosted the second Heritales – International Heritage Film Festival in September 2017. In this edition the festival focused on current and past sustainable communities, selecting works that explored and problematized the relationship and coexistence of modernity and sustainability when applied to human groups and societies. The films presented the everyday life, knowledge, crafts and know-how of ordinary people highlighting the changes and challenges that the expansion of consumer-based economies, globalization and world politics have brought. As organizers, by focusing on sustainability in heritage context, we wanted to go beyond current preservation strategies of the tangible and intangible heritage, to promote a reflection on the “culture of sustainability” itself, looking at how sustainable ways-of-existence have characterized various communities and cultural practices worldwide. Since its first edition, the festival has been a space for the promotion of a critical understanding of cultural heritage, aimed to the broader public. By using emblematic historical places as stage, Heritales has challenged the mainstream cultural heritage scientific communication. Its proposal is to approach heritage’s issues through multiple types of media and artistic work such as films and documentaries but also cultural heritage’s games, exhibitions, theatre and performance, with talks and several communication strategies to facilitate the encounter between the authors and the public. Although the festival has received many positive feedbacks and the support of various entities such as the UNESCO Chair of the University of Évora (Portugal) and the FCT (Science and Technology Foundation, Portugal) it is still at its early stage of action. In this paper we would like to present the results of our experiment and analyse its concept and results, so that more collaborative and sustainable methodologies can also become a part of our plan of actionfor the organization of future events.

Integration of science is a combination of separate sciences into a cohesion of knowledge, in this case the unification between the sciences that are religious in nature and the sciences that are general in nature. Integration of religion and general science is an effort to merge polarism between the science of religion and science which results from the mindset between religious sciences as an independent source of truth and science as an independent source. The concept of integration of religious science and general science in INSTIKA is inseparable from the basic values (qiyamusiaanyah) that are embedded in every step and educational activity carried out in it. The Islamic Institute of Annuqayah cults itself as a campus of manners, manners are an acronym for Takwa, Tafaqquh, Khidmah and rahmatan lil alamin. The three basic values of INSTICS are summarized from QS. At-Taubah verse 122. The rahmatan lil „alamin is a universal value that encompasses the three basic values which function to underlie, integrate and direct their orientation. Application of the curriculum in INSTIKA there is no separation between religious science and general science. In terms of concepts, religion and general science are taught in lecture sessions at INSTIKA, such as tasawuf, logic or mantiq lecture material, philosophy, interpretation, science and so on, all organized in curriculum units according to each study program. in INSTIKA.
