New Formula

With the expansion of the Internet services provided to users to cover almost all areas that were dominated by traditional face-to-face and location based businesses, one of the major challenges for such expansion is security and its related concerns. Customers or users need to trust the websites they visit in terms of the information or content. This research proposes a new formula for evaluating the credibility (called XD TRank) metric of websites. A case study of 40 selected websites in Jordan is used to assess the proposed credibibility metric. The metrics required to assess Websites and pages credibility are collected and evaluated based on 25 existing metrics and built a model using SPSS by applying stepwise linear regression analysis to predict the XD TRank. Results showed that there is a broad range of metrics that affect the credibility of a website or a webpage and their impact on credibility may vary on their significancy or impact on the trust rank metric. For e-business in particular, trust rank metrics can be used part of quality assurance and auditing processes. Those can be important assets for users to be able to distinguish known, popular and reliable e-commerce websites from spammers or websites which try to trick novice users. Trust rank can be also used like a logo in all Website pages to alert users if they were redirected to phishing pages.

Abstract: The development of technology flows is increasing. The internet, which was initially used by several groups as a medium for the transformation of scientific and academic data, has now been used in almost all aspects of people's lives, including e-commerce transactions. E-commerce transactions are transactions carried out without meetings between parties. By using e-commerce, many reservations are obtained from the seller or buyer. The convenience offered doesn't mean it doesn’t rise the problems. For Muslims, understanding the status of e-commerce transactions is important. E-commerce accepts payments with bai’s-salam, which is about non-related transactions and the suspension of goods for payments that have been hastened. It's just that if on Bai 's-Salam a face-to-face meeting is held for the implementation of sighat, it is different with e-commerce that communicate only through chat. E-commerce is permitted in Islam with a note that there is no riba ',gharar, maisir, etc. Therefore, if it is approved by the payment system on e-commerce, it is asked not to use a credit card to avoid riba’.الملخص: يشهد تطوير تدفقات التكنولوجيا زيادة هائلة. يستخدم الإنترنت في جميع جوانب حياة الناس تقريبًا ، بما في ذلك معاملات التجارة الإلكترونية، معاملات التجارة الإلكترونية هي معاملات تتم بدون اجتماع بين الطرفين .باستخدام التجارة الإلكترونية، الكثير من السهولة حصلت من البائع أو المشتري. يتم تقديم التسهيلات المقدمة. التسهيلات المقدمة لايمكن تسبب مشاك. معلومات المسلمين عن حالة المعاملة التجارة الإلكترونية شيء مهمة. التجارة الإلكترونية مثل بيع السلام هي عن العناصر فى المعاملات وتأخير القبض دفعت مقدما. إذا كان بيع السلام يتم عقد اجتماع وجها لوجه في تنفيذ سيغات تختلف عن التجارة الإلكترونية استخدام التواصل مع الدردشة. التجارة الإلكترونية مباحات في الإسلام مع ملاحظة عدم وجود عناصر الربا والغرار والميسر وغيرها لذلك ، إذا كانت مرتبطة بنظام دفع في التجارة الإلكترونية المستحسن عدم استخدام بطاقة الائتمان لتجنب الربا.. Abstrak: Perkembangan arus teknologi mengalami peningkatan yang masif. Internet yang pada awalnya digunakan oleh beberapa kalangan sebagai media transformasi data ilmiah dan akademik, kini telah digunakan di hampir seluruh aspek kehidupan masyarakat, termasuk transaksi jual beli (e-commerce). Transaksi e-commerce merupakan transaksi yang dilakukan tanpa adanya pertemuan antar para pihak. Dengan menggunakan e-commerce, banyak kemudahan yang diperoleh baik dari pihak penjual maupun pembeli. Kemudahan yang ditawarkan bukan berarti tidak menimbulkan masalah. Bagi kaum muslim, mengetahui status dari transaksi e-commerce merupakan hal yang penting. E-commerce  memiliki kesamaan dengan bai’ as-salam yaitu mengenai unsur-unsur terjadinya transaksi serta adanya penangguhan barang untuk pembayaran yang telah disegerakan. Hanya saja, jika pada bai’ as-salam dilakukan pertemuan face to face untuk pelaksanaan sighat, berbeda halnya dengan e-commerce yang melakukan komunikasi via chatting. E-commerce diperbolehkan dalam Islam dengan catatan tidak adanya unsur riba’, gharar, maisir, dsb. Oleh karena itu, jika dihubungkan dengan sistem pembayaran pada e-commerce, maka dianjurkan tidak menggunakan kartu kredit guna menghindari terjadinya riba’.

This paper aims to investigate the prevalence of cyberbullying among Vietnamese adolescents. Special emphasis was placed on gender differences regarding different forms of cyberbullying and victimization. In this study, 200 middle school students from four state schools in Vietnam were online surveyed to obtain information about the prevalence of cyberbullying and victimization. The results show that most of the students used the Internet daily and that almost all of them possess mobile telephones. On average, 7% of students reported that they have cyberbullied others online, whilst 14% of them were victims of cyberbullying. The most common types of victimization reported by students were harassment including “prank or silent phone calls” or “Insults on instant messaging and website”. There were not any significant gender differences in cyberbullying and being victimized by cyberbullies than females.

On Line Learning

In order to gain a better understanding of the ways in which an instructor could enhance an on-line learning experience, we surveyed 96 students enrolled in on-line Health Promotion and Wellness courses. Almost all respondents felt that sending e-mailed reminders and posting announcements on the course was very important or important for enhancing the on-line learning experience. There was a mixed response in the ratings for how important it was for an on-line instructor to host on-line office hours and the weakest ratings were for rating importance of having asynchronous time with an on-line instructor. Not surprisingly, most students used the library for research purposes less often or as often for their on-line courses than for their face-to-face courses. However, the majority of students used the Internet for resources more often or as often. Interestingly, half of the respondents felt that they interacted more with classmates in their on-line course. The amount of time spent preparing assignments in a face-to-face versus an on-line course was split.

Pembelajaran Berasaskan Kerja (PBK) merupakan suatu kaedah pembelajaran yang menggabungkan dua medium pembelajaran iaitu pembelajaran teori di institusi pendidikan dan pengaplikasian amali di industri. Melalui penggabungan dua medium pembelajaran ini dapat memberi pendedahan dan pengalaman industri yang relevan mengikut bidang pengajian yang dapat merapatkan jurang ketidaksepadanan di antara kehendak industri dan graduan yang dihasilkan oleh politeknik. Kajian ini dijalankan bertujuan untuk penerokaan pengalaman kebolehpasaran pelajar politeknik dalam tiga program perintis yang menggunakan kaedah PBK iaitu dalam program Diploma Lanjutan Rangkaian, Ijazah Sarjana Muda Teknologi Pengurusan Fasiliti dengan kepujian dan Ijazah Sarjana Muda Teknologi Kejuruteraan Elektronik (Perubatan) dengan kepujian Kajian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif kajian kes pelbagai. Penyelidik menggunakan kaedah temubual secara mendalam dan bersemuka dengan peserta kajian berpandukan protokol separa berstruktur terhadap tiga orang peserta kajian daripada politeknik. Hasil temubual yang telah diperolehi telah di transkrip dan dianalisis secara tematik. Dapatan kajian telah menunjukkan hasil daripada penerokaan pengalaman peserta kajian, penyelidik telah mendapati bahawa ketiga-tiga program telah menunjukkan kebolehpasaran siswazah yang tinggi dimana hampir kesemua siswazah telah mendapat pekerjaan dalam tempoh enam bulan selepas tamat pengajian. Dapatan ini diharapkan dapat memberi implikasi dengan lebih banyak program pendidikan menggunakan kaedah PBK diperkenalkan kerana ianya dapat membantu siswazah untuk mendapatkan pekerjaan selepas tamat pengajian.   Work-Based Learning (WBL) is a learning methodology that combined two workplaces: educational institutions for theoretical learing and industries.for the practical. The combination of these two learning mediums can give the exposure and experience according to the field of study that can bridge the gap and mismatch between the needs of the industry and graduates produced by polytechnics. The aim of this research is to explore the experience of polytechnic graduate employability via three pilot programmes that apply WBL methods; which are the Networking Advanced Diploma, Bachelor of Facility Management with Honours and Bachelor of Computer Engineering Technology (Medical) with Honours.. This study employed a multiple case study of qualitative approach. The data collections in the field study were conducted using in-depth, face-to-face interviews and semi-structured protocol with the three participants from polytechnics. The results of the interviews have been transcribed and analyzed thematically. The findings showed that all the three programs have shown high graduate employability by almost all the graduates have been hired as a worker within six months after the graduation. Based on the results of this study, hopefully more educational programs will using the WBL method because it can help graduates to get a job after the graduation.

The relevance of non-technical skills have long been acknowledged asimportant components of clinical learning, and there is evidence that integrating technologycan facilitate their development by encouraging reflection, and by enhancing communicationand reasoning. However, effectively integrating technology into learning practices must takethe contextual needs of students into consideration. The aim of this study was to determinewhat online tools undergraduate physiotherapy students at one South African university arefamiliar with, and how they use them as part of their learning practices.The case study was conducted in a university physiotherapy department in the WesternCape during 2010. A cross-sectional, descriptive design used a survey to obtain quantitativeand qualitative data from participants, and a pilot study was conducted to test the reliability of the instrument. All ethicalconsiderations were adhered to.Seventy six percent of participants had access to the internet at home, and 93% of them belonged to a social network, althoughfewer than half used it for their studying. Few students reported using the internet for more than information retrieval but reportedwanting to use it for enhanced communication with lecturers. Almost all respondents believed that lectures were a useful way tolearn. However, 61% added that integrating online learning activities with lectures could have value.Integrating technology into healthcare education has the potential to develop non-technical skills that are relevant for clinicalpractice. However, this group of students currently lack the experience and insight to use technology effectively as part of theirlearning practices. Educators must take cognisance of the educational and contextual needs of students if they wish to integratetechnology into clinical teaching.

The Covid-19 pandemic has had a huge impact on all countries in the world. Indonesia has not been spared the effects of this pandemic. The educational aspect was also affected. The teaching and learning process that was originally face to face has now changed and must be done online (online). The internet is the spearhead of the teaching and learning process. However, not all regions in Indonesia can access the internet, so we need an interactive learning media that can be run without using the internet (offline). One of them is by making mobile-based interactive learning media offline. In digitizing subject matter into software, it must be done gradually. This study focuses on the implementation of interactive learning media with class XI chemistry materials, namely hydrocarbons. testing is carried out based on functional testing obtained based on the results of interviews with chemists. the results of functional testing (Blackbox Testing) get 100% results based on the function of the interactive learning media that has been made.

The present case study aims to compare collaborative writing activities produced on the Padlet website on the internet and in a face-to-face (F2F) environment. This study for which criterion sampling was used included two different groups, both of which were formed with four people. For the triangulation of the case study, texts produced F2F and online, video recordings of the F2F writing process and records of the group interviews conducted after the internet practice. Thus, comparative evaluation regarding various components, such as writing processes, writing achievement, group interaction, creativity, and opinions of participants was performed depending on different data types. the findings suggest that the online environment shone out with advantages, such as time, flexibility, supporting creativity through and multimedia tools, whereas F2F writing offered advantages in communication and simultaneous changes by group members. However, it was detected that online texts were more successful than F2F texts and students’ achievement perceptions were higher in their Padlet texts.
