...values in the society in which he lives. In connection with this, effective teaching plays an important role in order to absorbed knowledge. The difference between the terminal performance of the learner and his/her base level performance is normally attributed to effective teaching by means of teaching methodologies use by the teacher. Teacher factor is one of the strongest determinants of successful learning that contribute to the study habits of students. Study habits and teaching methodologies performed a very important role in the learning process. Through the advancement in our technology some changes occur in teaching procedures, the help of printed materials learning become complex. The skill in selecting methodologies in the context of certain lesson is critical. The teacher has mastered this ability through sharp and intensive observation of how students learn. Choosing on what teaching methodologies to be used can contribute on the study habits of the students. It is expected that when teachers used the best teaching method, students might study lessons easily. Psychologists and educational experts are aware of this situation and use their knowledge about learning, about techniques and procedures to study and apply it to teaching process. How can we obtain learnings by means of study habit? Salandanan (2005) asserts that, “[i]t includes the teachers’ to implement a particular methodology in presenting a lesson” (p. 50). Formulation of instructional objectives...

...method do you prefer as a teacher? Reasons for choosing that method. Why not other methods? Ans: Method means a way of doing something, especially a systematic way; implies an orderly logical arrangement (usually in steps). Method of learning a language means doing some set of activities by which a learner can learn a language very well. Methodology means a body of practices, procedures, and rules used by those who work in a discipline or engage in an inquiry. There are many methods of teaching a language with different approaches. It is really difficult to choose any particular method. Because each of them has different sides and we cannot ignore any of them. To me it was really difficult to choose a method. Because I think the method which will successful is also depend on the type of the students. In a class there are many students. They are different from one another. In our class we have learnt about many methods of teaching a language. They are- * The Direct Method * Grammar Translation Method (GTM) * Audio Lingual Method (ALM) * Presentation, Practice and Production Method (PPP) * Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) * Community Language Learning (CLL) * Silent Way * Total Physical Response (TPR) To learn a language we almost use every method. Example- when we start learning a language we do everything in the target language. We cannot use any other language in the class. Sometimes we avoid the rules and give emphasis on the pronunciation...

...Approach: Within the teaching method framework, the approach is constituted by those theoretical principles on which the curricular design is based (Richards and Rodgers, 1986). Thus, an approach is usually understood as the body of linguistic, psychological and pedagogical theories which inspire the teaching practice. Stern (1983: 43-50) refers to foundations/theoretical assumptions and to a level -interlevel- between theory and practice where the educational linguistics theory and research take place. Curricular design: A new term which substitutes both programme and syllabus as old limited references to contents and bibliography. Within Richards and Rodgers’ outline (1986), the design includes objectives, linguistic content, activities, learner roles, teacher roles, and the role of instructional materials. According to Stern (1983: 43-50), the practice level of a “general model for second language teaching” includes methodology -objectives, content, procedures, materials and evaluation of outcome- and organization; thus, the term methodology includes design and procedures. Curriculum: As defined by Nunan (1988), it comprises the principles and procedures for the planning, implementation, evaluation and management of an educational programme. Method: This general term includes the approach, design and procedures in Richards and Rodgers’ model. Methodics and Method analysis: Terms used by Halliday, McIntosh and Strevens (1964) and Mackey (1965), respectively, in order...

...Name Instructor Course Date Summary The article to be summarized is titled From Data to Theory: Elements of Methodology in Empirical Phenomenological Research in Practical Theology1 it is authored by Hans-Günter Heimbrock. He indicates that practical theologians have initiated investigations and scientific researches that are associated with faith and religion. These theological studies have been made possible with the increase social science methods, which are being applied by the researchers to indicate the theological knowledge that can be used in social dynamics, contexts and conditions related to the religious life. Pastoral works have these studies to thank as they help them in conducting their works effectively. Heimbrock also instigates that the there has been a growing interest for theological studies ever since the introduction of the scientific methodology in theological work. The methodologies have increased the criteria and the standards of theological studies that can be used in the empirical research. The aspect of religion can be understood through the implication of religious research that is being increased through the means of social scientific instruments. Different aspects on religious studies and scientific methods can be applied in these studies. However, this paper will scrutinize some of the methodologies that can be applied in understanding the empirical side of religion through the stimulation of the correct standards of discussions and researches...

Why are these kinds of jobs so critical in various job evaluation methodologies? Bench mark jobs are highly visible jobs that common to a variety of organizations. These jobs are critical in various job evaluation methodologies because they can be used for comparison with other jobs that are above, below, or comparable in complexity and difficulty for pay purposes. This is usually a job that is clearly defined and shows the differences between departments. Working in retail I observed different departments such as clothing and appliances. Working in the education filed I observed different “departments” such as special education, speech, dual language as well as mainstream classes. (pg174). 3. What are some of the strengths and limitations in the use of ranking for job evaluation purposes? Some of the strengths of job ranking is when evaluators are intimately familiar with all jobs being ranked, they may only have to direct their decision making processes to a job title which helps make accurate results (pg175). Ranking is valuable as a first step in job evaluation or as a tool for teaching anyone the basic concepts of evaluation. Some of the limitations of job ranking is that it is inflexible. It does not readily identify changes in job content,...

...Guido L. Geerts, author of “A Design Science Research Methodology and Its Application to Accounting Information Systems Research,” asserts most of research currently conducted in the accounting information systems (AIS) and information systems (IS) areas focuses on understanding why things work the way they do, also known as “natural science (Geerts, 2011).” The primary goal of the paper was to introduce the design science research methodology (DSRM) into accounting information systems (AIS) literature by discussing the DSRM, applying the DSRM to different AIS design science papers, and then integrating the DSRM as part of the operational AIS literature (Geerts, 2011). “Currently, integration is increasingly needed in the business environment. This need emerges from the efficiency and synergy requirements necessary in a complex and turbulent environment. In other words, integration is needed to facilitate coordination, which is again related to the building of competitive advantage.” (Granlund & Malmi, 2002, p. 305). Detail Geerts’ introduction gives definitions and history of the concept of DSRM and AIS so that the reader may transition along with the article. There is discussion of each methodology giving the history and the science behind it and then he moves into how the application of DSRM was discussed in the AIS area. According to Geerts the DSRM has three objectives and aims at improving the production, presentation, and evaluation of design science research...

...A. Introduction Employee satisfaction has been defined as a function of perceived performance and expectations. It is a persons’ feeling of pleasure or disappointment resulting from comparing a products’ outcome to his/her expectations. If the performance falls short of expectations, the employee is dissatisfied and if it matches the expectations, the employee is satisfied. A high satisfaction implies improvement in efficiency and performance doing work or service. The process is however, more complicated then it appears. It is more important for any organization to offer high satisfaction, as it reflects high loyalty and it will not lead to switching over once a better offer comes in. B. Research Problem Employees are the basis of every organization. Recruiting and retaining knowledgeable people for the job is essential for an employer. But it works only if employee satisfaction is considered more important because of it employees attracted and not leave the company. It is require studying the various factors to assess employee satisfaction level. C. Research Questions 1. What is the current employee satisfaction approached used 2. What is the perception of the consumers in terms of the employee satisfaction rates? 3. What do you think should be included in the Employee Satisfaction Index System that will serve as guidelines? 4. What are the ways that the management can do to effectively implement employee satisfaction index system? D. Research Objectives ...

...the publication of Ball and Brown’s seminal work in 1968, accounting research moved into positive research (i.e., examining what is rather than what should be). Although this change has had its critics, it has resulted in a significant increase in research output (and many new journals). A cynical definition of research is: any paper that cites a lot of other accounting papers must be accounting research. This “quick and dirty” definition restricts accounting research to topics and methodologies that are well established in the literature; it is “safe” but somewhat limiting. More rigorously, Oler, Oler, and Skousen (2009) attempt to characterize accounting research by looking at the topics, research methodologies, and citations made by papers published in a set of six top accounting journals (AOS, CAR, JAE, JAR, RAST, and TAR). Their work can be criticized, though, because they do not consider all accounting journals, and because their categorizations of topics (6 of them) and research methodologies (7 of them) are broad. In spite of shortcomings, their paper appears to be the first that attempts to characterize and define accounting research, which they define as follows: “accounting research is research into the effect of economic events on the process of summarizing, analyzing, verifying, and reporting standardized financial information, and on the effects of reported information on economic events.” Professors typically will...
