Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh layanan bimbingan kelompok dengan teknik symbolic modelling terhadap motivasi belajar siswa kelas XI SMA Negeri 5 Semarang. Sampel yang diambil sebanyak 20 siswa, 10 siswa untuk kelompok eksperimen dan 10 siswa untuk kelompok kontrol dengan sample random sampling yaitu teknik penentuan sampel dari populasi dilakukan secara acak tanpa memperhatikan strata yang ada dalam populasi itu. Treatment dilaksanakan sebanyak lima kali pada sampel. Hasil uji hipotesis diperoleh thitung sebesar 2,645 dengan ttabel taraf signifikansi 5% yaitu 2,101. Hal tersebut menunjukkan bahwa thitung 2,645> ttabel 2,101.

The Impact of Speech Training with Symbolic Modelling Technique on Students’ Speech Competence

This study was designed to investigate whether Speech Training with Video Modelling Technique is more effective than Speech Training with Systematic Desensitisation and ABC Model Technique, to teach speaking for low and high anxiety students in alleviating students’ speaking anxiety and speaking competence hindrances; it was also designed to investigate whether the students having high level anxiety have better speaking competence than the students who have low level anxiety by using Symbolic Modelling Technique, Systematic Desensitisation Technique and ABC Model Technique. This study used Solomon Three-Group design. The population of this study was all fourth semester students in the English Department of Universitas Muhammadiyah Kendari. Three classes were used as the samples of this study. The instruments of this study were speaking or a speech test, an observation checklist, an interview guideline and note taking. The data were analysed quantitatively and qualitatively. The quantitative data were analysed by using analysis of variance (ANOVA), two ways in SPSS 22, while the qualitative data were analysed by using thematic analysis or coding. The findings of this study were that Speech Training with symbolic Modelling Technique (A1) was more effective than Speech Training with Systematic Desensitisation Technique (A2) and ABC Model Technique (A3) in enhancing the students speaking competence. It was proved that A1 (81.22) was higher than the students trained by using A2 (79.08) and A3 (78.15).

The Application Research of Geometric Language in Modern Furniture

From the perspective of modern furniture innovative design, this paper analyzes the application extent of geometric language in modern furniture, and provides new design ideas for modern furniture symbolization. By studying the elements of geometric language, such as point, line, surface, color block, shape, through combination, division, superposition, reconstruction and other methods, a variety of symbolic modelling elements are created. Finally, three principles of product symbolic design are summarized, and at the same time, combined with color matching, material selection, man-machine size, using functions, which could be applied into modern furniture design.

Layanan Penguasaan Konten dengan Teknik Symbolic Modelling untuk Meningkatkan Perilaku Prososial Siswa

Mastery content service is one of the guidance and counseling topic that is quite familiar in Indonesia to facilitate participants mastering a current series of competences. The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of mastery content service using symbolic modeling techniques to foster the student’s pro-social behavior. This study used the experimental design via one group pre-test and post-test, and involved 35 junior high school students. We build some examples videos that demonstrate pro-social behavior as supplementary material to enhance the mastering content services during 8 sessions. The results of this study prove that there was an increase in understanding of students' pro-social behavior after being given mastery content service with symbolic modeling techniques. The interesting thing in this study presents that there are discrepancies in some indicators of pro-social behavior indicated by students, where the highest increase occurs in behaviors giving support and the lowest increase in charitable behavior in others. We realize that increasing prosocial behavior experienced by students after getting treatment is quite much influenced by some situational characteristics, and events.
