This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the application of the Team Assisted Individualization (TAI) cooperative learning model in learning passing in basketball games. This research method is classified as classroom action research. This research design uses a cycle consisting of planning, implementation, observation/evaluation, and reflection. The subjects of the research were students of class X UPW SMK Negeri 4 Mataram, totaling 42 people consisting of 22 male students and 20 female students. This research was conducted for 2 cycles. Each cycle consists of 3 meetings.

Distorted and Limiting Semantically Divergent Translated Meaning of Arabic Loanwords in the Malay Language as Educational Instrument

Historically, the language contact contributed by Muslim preachers among the Arab traders of diverse origins that some of them opted to migrate and intermarry with the local Malays, thus, intermingled with the locals that had influenced the Malay/Malaysian language to borrow more Arabic words. Some semantic properties of the loanwords are adopted, but some are adapted. This study concerns with the divergent meaning of some adapted ones. 18 Malay-Arabic homophonous loanwords were purposely sampled – (the limited sample is due to the journal words limit). It is observed that despite of their similar utterance and spelling/transliteration but they have partially or fully dissimilar meanings when being compared between the two languages. Generally, it may confuse users of both languages, specifically the Arabian students who are compulsory to pass the Malay language in order to pass their study in Malaysia as well as Malay students who are studying in Arabian countries. Moreover, it may affect their meaning in the Malay translation for the Holy Qur’an/Prophetic Tradition (Hadith). So, it is essential to engage academics of the Islamic studies, and the Malay-Arabic linguists alike with the crucial issue stemmed from the bilingual mastery level that involved both languages departing from the rising movement of re-examining and re-envision criticality in language studies. Henceforth, the Malaysian Muslim society could dynamically develop further ahead after more than 10 centuries exposed to the Arabic language rather than being stagnant in minimalism evermore.

Lecturer Mastery Level as an Indicator of Student Satisfaction Assessment

The development of the era demands the development of a better and less pragmatic and simplistic mindset and way of teaching in conveying science to its students. The university should now be able to change its paradigm as a site like a company engaged in services offering better service to its customers. It is a quantitative research using a questionnaire model. It analyzes the influence of lecturer competency on student satisfaction levels both directly and through the quality dimensions of services. It also analyzes the most dominant competencies as lecturer competencies. The conclusions that can be drawn from the holding of this research is the ability of the lecturer has an important influence on student satisfaction, the lecturer ability has a significant impact on the level of student satisfaction through the dimension of service quality. Meanwhile, social competence has the most dominant role in shaping the lecturer's competence. It is expected that the results of this study can be considered by lecturers so that they can always develop themselves in order to function more fully.

The Effect of Pre-Class Assignment in Enhancing the Chinese National-Type School Pupils in Mastery Chinese Language

The KSSR curriculum system introduced by Malaysia's ministry of education is demanding teachers to build pupils who will have the ability to carry out the learning process independently. To build pupils with the ability to learn independently, the pre-class assignment is an implementation needed to give the learning autonomy back to pupils. However, some of the teachers do not like students to do any pre-class assignment because they are afraid that students who have already obtained a certain level of understanding towards the learning materials would feel boring and show the signs of being not interested to listen during the in-class learning process. Thus, this study aims to study the effect of pre-class assignments in enhancing the Chinese language reading comprehension mastery level of pupils from Chinese national-type schools in order to convince more educators to start practicing the use of pre-class assignments. A group of 260 pupils from eight different schools in Kuala Lumpur was involved in this study. A quantitative approach was used in this study and tests were developed and used in this study. The result of this study showed that the implementation of pre-class assignments was effective in helping pupils to master Chinese language reading comprehension. The finding of this research showed that the pupils' performance in Chinese language reading comprehension was not affected by the language used at home and prior exposure of pupils towards pre-class assignments.

The Correlation between University Students’ Vocabulary Learning Strategies and The Vocabulary Mastery Level

This research was intended to find the correlation between the students’ vocabulary learning strategies and the vocabulary mastery level. The research design of this study was a quantitative research and the study population was the second year students of English study program FKIP Universitas Riau. 41 participants were selected from the second year students of English Study Program FKIP Universitas Riau using the cluster random sampling technique. The instruments of this study were vocabulary learning strategy questionnaire and vocabulary level test. The data showed that 53.7% of students was used the vocabulary learning strategy in learning new vocabularies and 31.7% students were high vocabulary level. Moreover, the result of the study indicated that there was a negative correlation between two variables. The value of correlation coefficient was 0.813. It was on scale 0.00 – 1.00. It meant that the correlation between the students’ vocabulary learning strategies and the vocabulary mastery level of the second year students were categorized as high correlation. This research would assist students to understand the correlation between used the strategy in learning new vocabularies in order to increase the level of vocabulary mastery.

Evaluasi Bebas Tujuan: Implementasi dalam Pelatihan Kepewaraan Mahasiswa

In the principle, the goal-free evaluation model has the advantage of being able to consider possible influences, not only those that are planned, but things that are considered as other byproducts that arise from the product, so that novelty can be found in this model. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the application of the student host training model at STKIP NU Indramayu. The method used in this study is an experiment using a test technique. The tests used are linguistic knowledge and host tests. The results of the student's linguistic knowledge test when they were about to take part in the host training only reached 65.30. Based on the benchmark reference assessment with a scale of ten calculations at 56%-65% mastery intervals, it is categorized as moderate. The host practice test for STKIP NU Indramayu students before the host training was carried out only reached 62.90 in the moderate category. The host practice test of STKIP NU Indramayu students after attending the training reached 77.80. Based on the benchmark reference assessment with an interval of 76%-85% mastery level percentage is categorized as good. Thus, it can be concluded that the evaluation of student host training programs needs to be continuously developed by universities in Indonesia. Keywords: goal-free evaluation, implementation of host training for students Abstrak: Pada prinsipnya, model evaluasi bebas tujuan (goal free evaluation model) memiliki kelebihan dapat mempertimbangkan kemungkinan pengaruh, bukan hanya yang direncanakan, tetapi hal yang diperhatikan sebagai sampingan lain yang muncul dari produk, sehingga kebaruan dapat ditemukan dalam model ini.
