Despite the abundance of literature on spiral progression in education, there is limited research on teachers' readiness to implement this approach, specifically in the field of economics. This study aims to address this gap by evaluating teachers' readiness based on their profiles and knowledge of economics during the first and second grading periods. Through descriptive analysis, this paper provides insights into teachers' readiness and the necessity of utilizing the spiral progression approach to achieve the goal of producing globally competitive graduates. The study involved 29 social studies teachers selected through the \"side judgment\" purposive sampling technique, which was the most appropriate for this study's purpose. The findings indicate that teachers' readiness is positively influenced by factors such as educational attainment, specialization, teaching experience, mentoring received, and training attended. However, age and meetings attended do not directly affect teachers' readiness. These results contribute to both theoretical understanding and the practical application of teacher readiness in implementing the spiral progression approach. Moreover, this study sheds light on the readiness of teachers to use the spiral progression approach when teaching economics. The analysis provides valuable insights for both researchers and educators, facilitating a deeper understanding of teacher readiness and emphasizing the importance of implementing the spiral progression approach to produce globally competitive graduates.","PeriodicalId":36807,"journal":{"name":"Humanities and Social Sciences Letters","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135886707","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research investigates how organisational culture affects conflict management practices among university stakeholders and proposes measures to establish a culture that promotes effective conflict resolution. Drawing on the competing values framework (CVF) and social identity theory (SIT), the study adopts a transformative paradigm perspective, utilising a participatory research design to encourage collaborative problem-solving. Ten prominent stakeholders were purposefully selected from a specific university, including two deans, two heads of departments, two lecturers, two student leaders, and two non-teaching staff members. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to gather data, which were then analysed thematically. The results indicate that a culture of respect, inclusivity, and openness, as well as training and resources, significantly affect conflict resolution. Consequently, open communication, active listening, collaboration, and a culture of diversity, inclusivity, and respect were identified as practical approaches to create a culture of effective conflict resolution. The study concludes that establishing a culture that promotes effective conflict resolution in universities necessitates prioritising open communication, active listening, and collaboration and fostering a culture of diversity, inclusivity, and respect.","PeriodicalId":36807,"journal":{"name":"Humanities and Social Sciences Letters","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76217902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, academic writing is very challenging for university students. Therefore, this study aims to determine how writing strategies affect students at a university in Lima, Peru who produce expository dissemination articles. This research used a quantitative approach, an applied study and an experimental design with quasi-experimental characteristics. The sample consisted of 56 second-semester students, 26 of whom belonged to the control group and 30 to the experimental group. The instrument and the programme of 14 learning sessions were applied in the Zoom virtual classroom through synchronous and asynchronous classes. The results showed a value of U= (Z = -5.262 <-1.96) and (p = 0.00 < 0.05) which demonstrates that the programme applied in virtual environments had a significant effect on the experimental group. The four writing processes of planning, textualization, revision and editing are integrated into academic research in the educational field. This program’s aim is to improve and strengthen university students writing skills.","PeriodicalId":36807,"journal":{"name":"Humanities and Social Sciences Letters","volume":"44 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81404550","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A descriptive study was carried out to better understand the research topic. A structured survey questionnaire was employed to collect the data, in which the closed-ended questions used a Likert-type scale. The questionnaire measured AI’s effects on productivity, organisational effectiveness, employee satisfaction, and employee engagement. The survey was published on Google Forms, and a link was provided to the respondents. The data were analysed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 28. Statistically significant results were obtained on the association between AI and the determinants of organisational effectiveness, increased productivity, employee satisfaction, and employee engagement. AI thus influences the study variables, and the results are statistically significant. The employees of an organisation will adopt and use new technologies if the technology is easy to use and adopt and beneficial to them. The management of organisations can source technologies like AI and other tools that are easy to use, and they can implement such technologies in a phased manner, educating employees on the advantages and benefits of the technology to maximise employee engagement.","PeriodicalId":36807,"journal":{"name":"Humanities and Social Sciences Letters","volume":"36 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80587576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Research data were obtained from annual reports. The study used observations of 430 companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during 2019 and analyzed using ordinary least squares (OLS) with fixed industry effects and standard error estimation with Stata 17.0 software. The study also used the Heckman two-stage as a robustness test. The results show a positive and statistically significant relationship between COVID-19 and firm value. The same result is also shown in the relationship between China exposure and firm value. Our research provides evidence that exposure to the COVID-19 situation resulted in an increase in firm value during the period. Additionally, these results were found to be robust by the Heckman two-stage test. With these research findings, companies can identify factors that can influence an increase in firm value, including providing clear disclosure on company conditions such as COVID-19 and China exposure. Companies that comprehensively disclose their information during uncertain environmental situations will provide opportunities for them to generate a more positive performance, as stakeholders provided funding facilities for companies to pursue growth during the COVID-19 period. Therefore, the COVID-19 factor as a form of exposure for companies is expected to encourage companies to continue to adapt and innovate.","PeriodicalId":36807,"journal":{"name":"Humanities and Social Sciences Letters","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73487526","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
