Media has proven to be an effective medium to reach consumers and influence public opinion. With a focus on Canada’s media landscape, this study explores the way Canadian media covers Canada’s fashion industry. Using a quantitative research method for a case study, this study examines the frequency at which Canadian brands are present in fashion photo editorials published in Canada’s top readership fashion magazines in 2016, namely, Elle Canada, Flare and Fashion. Findings show that in all three magazines, Canadian fashion makes up a minority stake in fashion editorials, while fashion brands from other countries constitute a majority of product placements. This essay discusses the potential impact of this lack of media exposure for Canada’s fashion industry and puts forward recommendations to benefit the Canadian fashion industry for future fashion photo editorial direction.

This paper aims at investigating the factors which influence instructors of primary and secondary education into using Web 2.0 based teaching techniques in their teaching now and in the future. Two hundred and fifty three teachers participated in a survey conducted with a quantitative research method followed by short interviews for clarification purposes in the research area. The results showed that both gender and teaching experience are factors that influence this attitude, whereas the type of school seems to have no influence on educators’ decision to employ such tools in their teaching practices.

The Many

Educational research is one of the many fields of knowledge that frequently use case studies as a research method, particularly when applying an interpretive approach. Based on literature reviews and a systematic analysis of current scientific literature, this paper examines the prevalence and characteristics of the case study as a methodology for research on MOOCs. Ninety-two documents were selected from the search results returned by two of the most prestigious scientific databases: Web of Science (WOS) and SCOPUS. Findings showed that (a) even when searching solely for case studies, quantitative research paradigms were more prevalent than interpretive approaches; (b) geographical distribution of these studies was partially biased; (c) case studies were less prevalent in these databases than other empirical investigations on MOOCs; (d) the data collection and data analysis methods most frequently used in the case studies were more aligned with a quantitative approach; and (e) there is still very little instructor-focused research using this methodology. In the light of these findings and their discussion, future directions for research using case study methodology are proposed, given the potential of this method to illustrate certain issues for which other approaches have proved inadequate or insufficient.

Learning Management Systems (LMS) have played a significant role in education. The purpose of this study is to investigate the acceptance level of LMS amongst students of two Universities in Tehran, Payamnoor and Farhangian. The total number of participants was 200. This study was directed based on a quantitative research method and data collection from a questionnaire which was then interpreted according to accurate statistical procedures through SPSS software. Results show that most students, regardless their gender, age, and department were satisfied with the usage of Payamnoor and Farhangian LMSs. However, a student’s grades seem to play a significant role regarding his or hers level of satisfaction from the LMS.

The use of sand as a mold in the casting process is very common. In this study, Balikpapan sand used as casting sand then analyzed its effect on hardness and fluidity of the Al-Si alloy. The research method used in this research is quantitative research methods using pre-experimental design, especially the one-shot case study model. The final results of this study will be obtained (1) the value of metal hardness from casting using the Micro Vickers Hardness Tester with a Hardness Vickers (HV) scale, (2) fluidity testing is carried out using the Birmingham method in order to determine the length of the cast metal flow (mm) on the final result of casting.

The concept of mathematics learning which is integrated with Islamic character education is still limited; this is one of logical reasons why this research is conducted. The basic motivation of carrying out this research is to describe a concept of mathematics learning which is contextualized with Islamic character education. This research aims at describing concept of mathematics learning which is integrated with Islamic character education. This research uses a qualitative approach by emphasizing its analysis on the comparative inference process as well as on phenomena relationship dynamics observed by using scientific logic. Qualitative research is an approach that produces descriptive data in the form of written words from observed people that are not written in terms used in quantitative research. Research method used in this study is case study in which the researcher is trying to find out how the process of strengthening Islamic character through mathematics learning. This research was carried out at MA Nurul Ummah Kotagede Yogyakarta which has innovatively implemented mathematics learning using various methods through interactive learning multimedia which is integrated with strengthening Islamic character.

The creative fashion industry is one of the sources of economic strength in great demand by businessman and consumers, such as MSMEs. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of consumer knowledge on purchase intention in MSMEs sustainable fashion products with trust as a mediator variable. The research method will use quantitative research. The samples obtained were 257 consumers of Indonesian MSMEs fast fashion products and used the Qualtrics electronic questionnaire. This research data is from perception data for sustainable fashion knowledge variables, trust, and purchase intention in MSMEs sustainable fashion products. The data were processed using SPSS to test the validity, reliability, regression analysis, and mediation test using JASP. The results obtained are that consumers who know sustainable fashion will make these consumers more confident in sustainable fashion MSMEs products and ultimately increase consumer purchase intention in MSMEs sustainable fashion products. So, it is very important for MSMEs engaged in the sustainable fashion business to educate consumers about the meaning of sustainable fashion and the practice of MSMEs in a sustainable fashion.

This research is aimed to know the defect of castings, tensile strength, and hardness of Al-Si alloy to the variation of binder. The research method used is descriptive quantitative research method. This beacuse the data is expressed in the form of numbers. This research uses pre-experimental research design using one-shot case study model. Based on the results of the study, it was found that most pinhole defects were owned by specimens using 90% bentonite binder that is 59 defects. Whereas the pinhole defect which is at least owned by the specimens using banngkalan local clay binder 9% that is 31 defects. The most common open grain structure defect is owned by metal casting specimens using a 9% bentonite binder, which is 81 defects. Whereas the defect of open grain structure is at least owned by the specimen result of casting of metal clad with bangkalan local clay 3% which amounted to 40 defects. The result of the research using bangkalan local clay binder of 9% has higher tensile strength than other binder. This is because the characteristic of bangkalan local clay which has a high content of calcium (Ca) is 92,81%. The value of the tensile strength of the bangkalan local clay is 12,8712 (kg/mm2), whereas the bentonite which is said to be the ideal binder for the mold has a tensile strength of 10,1612 (kg/mm2). The highest hardness value is owned by Al-Si alloy casting specimen with bend mixture variation of bangkalan local clay 9% that is 128,033 HV. While the lowest hardness value is owned by Al-Si alloy casting foundry with 9% bentonite binder 114,4 HV.
