Universal accessibility to public television guarantees the fundamental right to receive media information and promotes social inclusion. British audiovisual regulations impose minimum quotas for subtitling, audio description, and sign language to make content more accessible to people with visual or hearing impairment. However, these minimum requirements do not ensure full user satisfaction. The aim of this study is to present a descriptive analysis of user satisfaction with the accessibility of BBC public television services, both linear and on demand, and collect the improvements demanded by users. The survey method was applied, interviewing 442 UK residents who were users of subtitles, audio description, and sign language, mostly people with disabilities or members of their families. The questionnaire also included qualitative questions to capture basic demands identified by the users. One of the main results is the need to improve the quality and synchrony of live subtitling, and to increase the fractions of programming with audio description and sign language. Moreover, beyond compliance with the law, it is essential to listen to the opinions of users with visual or hearing impairment to ensure that services fulfill their mission of guaranteeing audiovisual accessibility and promoting social inclusion.

ABSTRAKKebutuhan akan lembaga notariat tidak terlepas dari kebutuhan akan perlunya pembuktian tertulis dalam lapangan hukum perdata. Mengingat keadaan ini maka notaris tidak saja berperan sebagai orang yang membuat alat bukti autentik namun juga sebagai penemu hukum. Notaris dalam profesinya sesungguhnya merupakan instansi yang dengan akta-aktanya menimbulkan alat-alat pembuktian tertulis dengan mempunyai sifat autentik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pelaksanaan penandatanganan akta notaris dalam pembuatan SKMHT dan akibat hukum penandatanganan akta SKMHT oleh penerima kuasa tidak di hadapan notaris dalam perjanjian kredit pemilikan rumah. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah pendekatan yuridis normatif, sedangkan sifat dari penelitiannya sendiri bersifat deskriptif analisis. Penandatanganan akta notaris oleh penerima kuasa dalam akta SKMHT dimungkinkan untuk dilakukan tidak di hadapan notaris, karena lazimnya suatu akta SKMHT ada kaitannya dengan akta perjanjian kredit yang telah dibuat terlebih dahulu oleh para pihak. Akibat hukumnya penerima kuasa dalam akta SKMHT menjadi terikat untuk mematuhi ketentuan-ketentuan yang ada dalam SKMHT.Kata kunci: notaris, akta, perdata, kredit, perjanjian. ABSTRACTThe need for notarial institutions is inseparable from the need for the necessity of verification in the field of civil law. In view of this situation the notary not only plays the role of the person who makes authentic evidence but also the inventor of the law. Notary in his profession is in fact an institution which with its deeds evokes written proof means with authentic nature. This study aims to analyse the execution of the signing of notary deed in the making of SKMHT and the effect of the signing of SKMHT deed by the power of attorney not before the notary in the mortgage agreement. The method used in this study is the normative juridical approach, while the nature of the research itself is descriptive analysis. The signing of notarial deed by the power of attorney in the deed of SKMHT is possible to be done not in the presence of a notary, because usually a deed of SKMHT is related to the credit agreement which has been made beforehand by the parties. As a result of the law the power of attorney in the SKMHT deed becomes bound to comply with the provisions contained in SKMHT.Keywords: notary, deed, civil, credit, agreement.

Within the framework of the introduction of community service as a subject in secondary education, the Centre for Health and Social Studies (University of Vic) created a training space with 38 intergenerational partners (aged 14-15 years and >65 years), with the aim of improving the senior users’ digital skills in terms of use of smartphones and tablets, thus helping reduce the digital divide in the territory. Objective The aim of this paper is to evaluate the satisfaction of both junior and senior participants toward the intervention and to explore its main drivers. Methods Participants who volunteered to participate in the study were interviewed. Quantitative and qualitative data gathered in paper-based ad hoc surveys were used to assess participants’ satisfaction. Results The experience shows a broad satisfaction of both junior and senior users. The project’s strengths include the format of working in couples; randomly pairing individuals by operating system; the ability to practice with the device itself; individuals’ free choice to decide what they wish to learn, develop, or practice; and the availability of voluntary practice material that facilitates communication and learning. With regard to aspects that could be improved, there is a need to review the timetabling flexibility of meetings to avoid hurrying the elderly and to extend the project’s duration, if necessary. Conclusions This activity can serve to create mutual learning through the use of mobile devices and generate security and motivation on the part of the seniors, thus reducing the digital divide and improving social inclusion.

Terdapat beberapa hukum yang ulama tidak padu dan berbeda pendapat, khususnya mengenai konsep talak dilihat dari sisi waktu dan jumlah penjatuhannya. Penelitian ini henda mengkaji pendapat Ibn Qayyim.

Penelitian ini termasuk penelitian pustaka, data yang terkumpul dianalisis dengan cara analisis-deskriptif.

Dari segi waktu, talak dilakukan saat isteri suci dan tidak digauli saat suci tersebut. Pengaruh suami yang menceraikan isteri saat haid dan telah digauli, itu diharamkan dan talak tidak jatuh. Dari segi jumlah, hak talak suami hanya ada tiga. Tiga jumlah hak talak tersebut digunakan secara bertahap, tidak bisa digunakan sekaligus. Pengaruh suami yang menceraikan isteri dengan talak dua atau tiga sekaligus, talak yang jatuh hanya dipandang satu kali. Adapun dalil yang digunakan Ibn Qayyim yaitu QS. al-Ṭalāq ayat 1, QS. al-Baqarah ayat 229, QS. al-Baqarah ayat 230, dan QS. al-Nūr ayat 6. Adapun riwayat hadis di antaranya hadis dari Nafi’ riwayat Abī Dāwud, dari Sa’di bin Ibrahim riwayat Muslim, dari Abdullah bin Ali bin Sa’ib riwayat Abī Dāwud, dan dari Ibn Wahab riwayat HR. Nasā’i. Metode yang digunakan Ibn Qayyim yaitu bayanī dan metode istiṣlāḥī. Talak is a law prescribed to one spouse that is no longer likely to foster family relationships well.

The development of online payment systems such as the online payment point system has greatly assisted the public in processing monthly transactions such as water bills. However, in its application, this system still uses large devices such as computers and inkjet printers so that the operation takes a long time and is less efficient. Therefore, in this study, a mobile application is designed to replace the role of computers in making water bill payment transactions in the online payment point system (SOPP) of PDAM Malang Regency. The application that is connected to a database server via the internet is also integrated with a compact wireless thermal printer that can be carried anywhere and does not require ink refills so that it can speed up the transaction process and be more efficient in time, paper and space. The research method used was experimental and survey methods. The experimental method is used to test the running of the application, test the application's compatibility with the device and measure the time it takes for the application to exchange data. The survey method is used to test user satisfaction with the application.
