This study aims to describe the type and location of student difficulties in solving matrix problems. This research is a survey research with quantitative and qualitative approaches. The sample in this study were 13 students from the Civil Engineering Study Program at Mataram UNMAS Denpasar Campus. Retrieval of data using test instruments and analyzed using quantitative-qualitative analysis. The results of this study indicate that the type of student difficulties related to facts is 13.64%, the difficulty in the concept is 31.31%, the difficulty in principle is 28.79% and the difficulty in the skill is 26.36%. While the location of students' difficulties on points is known to be 12.52%, points were asked at 12.52%, formula points were 4.46%, systemic completion points were 15.78%, inter-concept links were 11.15%, relationship points facts - concepts 12.35%, mathematical basic operating points 12.41% and final answer points 16.81%. The type and location of the most dominant difficulties students have in solving matrix problems lies in understanding the concepts and final answers of students.

The problem formulation in this research are a) what is the level of students' ability in mastering the concept of Survey and mapping ?, and b) what difficulties do students experience in mastering the concept of Survey and Mapping?. The research approach uses both quantitative and qualitative approaches. The research procedure goes through several stages, namely a) preparation stage, b) problem formulation stage, c) data collection stage, d) data analysis stage, and e) research results. The population in this study is students of the Industrial Engineering Study Program of South Aceh Polytechnic, while samples are students of semester II of the Academic Year 2020/2021 Industrial Engineering Study Program as many as 1 (one) class. Research is conducted at South Aceh Polytechnic. The instruments in this research are test questions and interview guidelines. Data collection techniques in this study used tests and interviews. Hypothesis testing of students' ability level in understanding survey and mapping subjects (tests) using right-hand t-test at a significance level of 0.05 with acceptance criteria H0 if t  t(1-α) and H0 declined for t other values. Interview data were analyzed with the following stages 1) reducing the data, 2) presenting the data, and 3) concluding the data. External must be in the form of an accredited national journal ranked 1- 6 which is published in the Journal of Innovation and Engineering Technology with the information accepted/published. Technology Readiness Level (TKT) is 3. The results of data analysis performed at a significant level α = 0,05 gained   and = 1,73, so  or 2,51 > 1,73. Thus, it can be concluded that students of the Industrial Engineering Study Program of South Aceh Polytechnic are able to master the concept of survey and mapping courses

Research is included into the type of descriptive study using quantitative and qualitative approaches. The research procedure includes stage 1) initial observation, 2) preparation, 3) implementation, 4) evaluation, and 5) final results. The subjects in this study were the second semester students of Mechanical Engineering Study Program, totaling 24 people. Data collection techniques used 1) test questions, 2) interviews, 3) documentation, and 4) field notes. Data analysis techniques mastery level of the material were analyzed using the percentage formula. Interview data were analyzed in stages 1) reducing data, 2) presenting data, and 3) summarizing data. Instrument documentation and field notes were analyzed narratively. The results of data analysis on the level of student mastery of composite material shows that the group of students in the category of mastery is very mastering (SM) 0 students (0%), the category of mastery mastering (M) is 9 students (23.68%), the category of mastery is less mastering (KM ) 16 students (42.11%), mastery category not mastered (TM) 13 students (34.21%). Students who mastered the mastery-1 category were 15 students (39.47%), who mastered the mastery-2 category by 22 students (57.89%), who mastered the mastery-3 category by 9 students (23.68%) and categories mastery-4 as many as 0 students (0%). Interview results obtained by some students 'mistakes in mastering composite material courses, namely a) errors in the use of formulas or concept errors, b) errors in algebraic fraction operations, c) students' lack of attention to the tests conducted, d) errors in inputting parameter values, e) errors in the operation of exponential numbers, f) errors in formulating problems in the form of formulas (mathematical modeling), and g) principle errors.

Delegation of responsibilities constitutes a very important ingredient of good leadership in organisations and is critical to competence development of workers. However, experience shows that many leaders are unwilling to delegate responsibilities to their subordinates for a number of reasons. This study was therefore designed to investigate delegation of responsibilities as a tool for competence development of subordinates in selected organisations in Ibadan metropolis. The study, anchored on Elkem’s model, was descriptive and adopted survey research design with a combination of both quantitative and qualitative approaches. It was conducted on 206 respondents randomly selected from 20 public and private organisations in Ibadan. Questionnaire and IDI were instruments of data collection, while the data collected were analysed using both quantitative and qualitative techniques. The study showed that respondents perceived delegation of responsibilities as a vital tool for developing, equipping and motivating subordinates; and that it had positive effects on subordinates’ performance (X2 = 11.14, p-value = 0.001). The study also revealed that lack of confidence in subordinates (79%), level of skill and competence (66%), organisational climate (68%) and bureaucracy (58%) were barriers to delegation of responsibilities. Delegation of responsibilities is a cost-free way of enhancing competence development of subordinates in organisations, and should therefore, be encouraged among leaders irrespective of their levels.

This introductory book on Geophysics was created to support teaching materials for basic subjects in the Geophysical Engineering Study Program, Physics Study Program, and related Study Programs in addition to other major books. This book introduces the basics of the earth and the structure of the earth, as well as the layers of the earth globally. Furthermore, it is also shown how the relationship between geophysics and other related branches of science within the sphere of geoscience. So that each scientific concept is clearly distinguished, although sometimes there is a very close relationship. In another section, various geophysical methods are described, starting from the basic theory, working principles, approaches and applications. All physical parameters that are applied from each discussion such as seismic method, geoelectric method and IP, gravity method, georadar method, and magnetic method. The hope is that this book can provide benefits for readers and enthusiasts of geoscience.
