Technological developments in the digital era have generally changed children’s play activities. Even though there are many digital games nowadays, the social interactions that usually occur in traditional games are slowly disappearing. This research will then be carried out to see the development of children’s loss of social competence when playing. This research will be carried out using a qualitative approach. Through literature studies, researchers use secondary data derived from various research results and previous studies which still have relevance to the content of this research. The results of this study then found that traditional games can increase a child’s interaction to improve social competence in the child. However, the emergence of technology in the digital era is slowly eroding traditional games. The consequence is reduced social interaction that occurs in children so that later the development of their social competence also disappears in this digital era.

Every child has the right to continue to receive education, as mandated by the 1945 Constitution. The inclusive education policy is one of the government’s policies to support the mandate of the 1945 Constitution. Unfortunately, this policy still faces various obstacles, even though it has been implemented since 2009. This research will then be carried out to analyze the process of implementing inclusive education policies in the South Tangerang city area. This research is descriptive qualitative research. The data used in this study were obtained through interviews, observation and document studies. The results of this study then found that implementing inclusive education policies in Tangerang is still not going well completely. This is because there is still no specific legal basis regarding inclusive education, the budget is still dependent on the provincial government, and there is no SOP for implementing inclusive education. Therefore, the government needs to clarify the legal umbrella or legal basis for inclusive education to clarify the SOPs, budget and maximum implementation.

This article deals with the shadow education system of private tutoring which contributes to the reproduction of social class inequalities, focusing on the Greek public secondary education system. It presents a literature review of the issue and the findings of an empirical qualitative and quantitative research that aimed at examining the causes of the students’ massive resort to private supplementary tutoring for learning the English language, despite the fact that English is taught at school. The study also set out to examine the relationship between students’ socioeconomic background and resort to private supplementary tutoring and the relationship between socioeconomic background and knowledge of the English language as attested by official certifications. Research findings indicate that the widely spread resort to private supplementary tutoring has a negative impact on the teaching of English in Greek public lower secondary education. Using Bourdieu’s cultural reproduction theory, we argue that private supplementary tutoring makes closer the relationship between social class, familial cultural and economic capital and educational outcomes. Thus, upper and middle-class students are at an advantage, since they can move to the labour market with valued educational qualifications that enhance their occupational prospects. Finally, we discuss educational measures to address the problem.

Un creciente número de investigaciones identifica el impacto de las características del líder sobre la estrategia y los resultados de las orga-nizaciones. Este artículo, tras realizar una revisión de la literatura sobre liderazgo, y en particular sobre las contribuciones de la literatura en liderazgo en gestión pública, concluye que los efectos del liderazgo se han estudiado desde una perspectiva estática, en la mayoría de casos. Para superar esta limitación e incluir un análisis dinámico y longitudinal, propone aplicar el concepto de ciclo de vida al mandato de los directivos públicos, un tema hasta ahora no abordado en la literatura en gestión pública. En primer lugar, aborda el análisis de la carrera horizontal del directivo público a lo largo de su mandato, frente a una aproximación tradicional, vertical, de análisis de promoción en carrera. Esto es, el ciclo de vida durante el mandato directivo. En segundo lugar, el documento identifica las dimensiones clave y las etapas en el ciclo de vida del directivo público durante su mandato y realiza las siguientes propuestas para la construcción de un modelo de análisis: 1) El directivo público, en el inicio de su mandato, centra su atención en lograr los objetivos que definen sus indicadores de resultados, con un apoyo inicial del entorno político que le nombró. 2) En una segunda etapa, inicia un período de exploración tras haber demostrado algunos logros y no haber puesto en peligro la confianza política. 3) Es en la tercera etapa cuando el directivo público puede seleccionar la narrativa por la cual será reconocido su mandato en la organización. Para ello, teje redes informativas internas para desarrollar una visión legítima y factible, de largo plazo para la organización. 4) En la etapa de convergencia es cuando se producen los máximos resultados del directivo público, dado que se manifiesta una relación en forma de U invertida entre la duración del mandato y los resultados. 5) En la etapa de disfunción con la organización o esclerosis directiva, el poder del directivo es máximo, así como el conocimiento de la tarea. Sin embargo, si el mandato no tiene una limitación en su duración, las consecuencias para la organización pueden ser de letargia o crisis. Finalmente, el artículo construye una propuesta de investigación que combina cuestionarios basados en escalas reconocidas por la literatura y entrevistas semi-estructuradas para el análisis exploratorio del modelo conceptual y sus proposiciones.

This study aims to find out and explain empirically the relationship between self-regulation and burnout in Basarnas employees in Southern Sumatera. The independent variable in this study is self-regulation, and the dependent variable in this study is burnout. The population in this study were Basarnas employees spread across the southern part of Sumatera, totaling 447 people. Based on the Isaac and Michael formula with an error rate of 5%, a population of 139 people is obtained. This research uses quantitative methods. The sampling technique used in this study is simple random sampling. The measuring tools used in this study are the self-regulatory behavior scale and the burnout scale. The self-regulation scale is 60 items with a reliability of 0.585 and the burnout scale is 60 items with a reliability of 0.765. Data validity used the person's product moment (r) correlation technique with the output system of a reliability package, and data reliability used the Cronbach alpha technique with the help of the IBM SPSS program version 21.00. Based on the results of data analysis using the IBM SPSS program version 21.00, the results obtained were a coefficient of R = 0.600 with a value of (R2) = 0.361 and p = 0.000 where p < 0.01. So, the result is a very significant relationship between self-regulation and burnout in Basarnas employees in southern Sumatra. Based on the results of the analysis, the value of the contribution given by self-regulation and burnout is R² = 0.361 or 36.1% so there is still another 63.9% which is influenced by other factors not involved in this study.

Wasted seeds are sometimes scattered all over the place during the mango season to spoil the beauty and pollute the environment. Mango seeds can be processed into dextrin, so efforts must be made to process them in order for them to be useful. Specifically, by hydrolyzing mango seed flour with an HCl catalyst. The mango seed flour is 20 grams in weight; 10 milliliters of HCl are added, and water is added until the volume reaches 200 milliliters. Additionally, heat at the temperature of heating: 70 o C; 80oC; _90°C; 100°C; 110°C, and the concentration of HCl: 0.1N; 0.15N; 0.20N; 0.25N; Hydrolysis time was used to produce 0.3N: 15 seconds; 20 seconds; 25, 30, and 35 minutes, respectively. As a result, it is anticipated that a lot of dextrin yields will be obtained. The treatment that was used in the previous study yielded the best results, with a dextrin yield of 8.16 percent at a hydrolysis temperature of 100 degrees Celsius, a concentration of 0.25 N HCl, and a hydrolysis time of 35 minutes.

El propósito de este trabajo es exponer una propuesta metodológica para medir el logro de programas y proyectos sociales, apoyar su gestión y evaluar sus resultados. Para ello, se integró el marco lógico con la metodología multicriterio “Proceso Analítico Jerárquico” y luego se aplicó a un programa social de prestigio denominado “Programa Servicio País” en Chile. Los resultados muestran la utilidad de desarrollar un modelo integrado que permite obtener un indicador que sintetiza el logro del programa, así como el logro y peso de cada componente del marco lógico. Se propone el diseño de una metodología válida que apoye a los tomadores de decisión en el proceso de focalización de los recursos en la etapa de implementación de un proyecto social. Esta herramienta ofrece una serie de ventajas, entre ellas, la obtención de prioridades en los componentes y la identificación de fortalezas y debilidades en la evaluación de resultados de un programa social. Finalmente, esta investigación pone de manifiesto la escasez relativa de técnicas cuantitativas para evaluar los resultados de un programa social mediante un índice de logro por cada dimensión considerada. La metodología propuesta motivará a los tomadores de decisión a desarrollar nuevas mediciones útiles para el análisis de los logros. Futuras investigaciones pueden aplicar esta herramienta, de carácter cuantitativo, para establecer soluciones frente a diversas problemáticas sociales, con distintas muestras y en diferentes contextos.
