The Rasch model is a powerful tool in measurement theory, particularly in educational and psychological assessments as well as for business research. It provides a framework for understanding how individuals respond to items on a scale and how these responses relate to their underlying ability or trait. In a guest lecture on the Rasch model, key points would include its fundamental principles, such as the requirement of item independence and the concept of person and item parameters. Additionally, discussing practical applications, such as test development, item analysis, and person ability in the context of business research, would be valuable. It's important to address common misconceptions and challenges in implementing the Rasch model, along with strategies for interpretation and validation. Demonstrating its versatility in business research, like customer satifcation, employee motivation, consumer product choice or market research, would highlight its broad utility. Overall, this guest lecture aims to equip participants with a foundational understanding and practical insights into utilizing the Rasch model effectively. The guest lecturer conducted on 2nd May 2024 at Universitas Multimedia Nusantara building in Serpong, Tangerang, which master of technology management, faculty of business students attended the lecture.
Extending the Dialogue: Responding to Indonesian Multicultural Children’s Literature Cap Go Meh
Durriyah, T., & Dewayani, S. (2024). Extending the Dialogue: Responding to Indonesian Multicultural Children’s Literature Cap Go Meh. Journal of Language and Literature, 24(1), 240-251. doi:https://doi.org/10.24071/joll.v24i1.7310
Abstract
Cap Go Meh is an Indonesian picture book with interreligious and multiethnic themes and has been translated to English and been awarded for promoting multiculturalism. Studies that focus on reader response to interreligious theme of children’s literature are scarce. This study examines a reading engagement of a group of Muslim preservice to Cap Go Meh read aloud. Using a framework of reader response theory that pays attention to cultural influences including religions, this qualitative study posed a question: How do Indonesian Muslim preservice teachers respond to the multicultural story in Cap Go Meh. The respondents’ writing responses generated two major themes. One was concerned with how the preservice teachers relate to Cap Go Meh and how its narrative leads to their reflections about diversity. The other one focused on how the participants might extend the story of Cap Go Meh and highlighted the preservice teachers’ concerns with the role of adults (parents) in the story. Additional data from one participant could potentially show a case for furthering literary experiences using multicultural children’s literature. The researchers note that responses to sensitive issues such as religious diversity occur mostly in a context where there is encouragement from teachers. In this case, it is crucial to highlight the importance of bringing multicultural children’s literature like Cap Go Meh as a medium to discuss the lives and perspective of others.
Beyond the classroom walls: exploring parental involvement on children’s interest development in EFL learning (A case from Indonesia)
Wahyuni, N. T., & Bee Tin, T. (2024). Beyond the classroom walls: exploring parental involvement on children’s interest development in EFL learning (A case from Indonesia). Education 3-13, 1–15. https://doi.org/10.1080/03004279.2024.2340548
ABSTRACT
This study reports the findings of a case study that followed a group of Indonesian primary school EFL learners (10–11 years old). They were observed in school and at home and interviewed with their parents. The study highlights various ways children can develop an interest in learning English and how parents help shape their children’s interests. Four students who demonstrated different patterns of interest development were selected for detailed analysis. Through these cases, the study attempts to understand the role of parents in developing interest in EFL learning. All four child participants were provided with a similar supportive learning environment at school, suggesting that their differences may have primarily been attributed to their different home learning environments, parental involvement, and parenting styles.
