The nature and dynamics of world religions: a life-history approach
INTRODUCTION
In history, world
religions are no freedom. World religions are characterized by a unique
emphasis on extended prosociality, restricted sociosexuality and delayed
gratification. According to the recent studies, all of us adjust our life
strategy in our environment through in a harsh environment where individuals
adopt a "fast strategy" that are well known in pursuing smaller but
more benefits and behavior such as materialism, selfishness, conspicuous and
sexuality. Because of late emerge in human history and current decline in the
most affluent society there are many problems like homicide and teenage
pregnancy.
To solve this problem
this study will discuss the "slow strategies " to condemn "fast
strategies" in the forms of greed, sex and violence.
With this people learned to live in an environment that was safe enough and affluent enough.
PURPOSE
This study will discuss the two types of strategies which is "slow and fast strategies" to understand their concept.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This study will used one hypothesis often called "psychosocial acceleration theory" posits that in harsh environment where mortality and uncertainty is high.
OBJECTIVE
This study expected to understand the concept of fast and slow strategies and how people adapted.
METHODOLOGY
This study will differentiate fast and slow strategies. This study will promote slow strategies was safe enough.
INTRODUCTION
The "clinical" and the "engineering"
are second key assumptions that seems to shape the growth the applied social
sciences. This assumption seems to be that there is but one type of, or one
model for applied social sciences. The difference between a clinical and an
engineering approach can be considered by inspecting a typical case, derived
from my own experience, of an engineering research in the social sciences.
According to the study, an industrial concern contracts with a "management
consulting " firm to conduct an employee attitude survey among its own
employees. The study aims to ascertain if their employees are really satisfied
with their working conditions, hours, wages, or supervisors. The consulting
firm consents to do this on the terms specified by the hiring company. In the
end, the consultant conveys a report to the company which indicates the
percentage of employees who are satisfied with their wages, their supervision,
or their chances for promotion. However, the company management invites the
consultant to a discussion concerning the implications of
these findings. This is
probably a representative history of the engineering type of applied social
research.
To solve this problem, this study will differentiate the two significant different models available for applied social sciences the "clinical" and an "engineering" approach.
PURPOSE
This study will describe the differences between the "clinical" and an "engineering" approach to clarify their underlying differences.
PROJECT
DESCRIPTION

OBJECTIVE
This study aims to describe the second key assumptions which seems to shape the growth of the applied social sciences.
METHODOLOGY
This study convey a
report to the company which indicates the percentage of employees who are satisfied
with their wages, their supervision, or their chances for promotions.

become successful, active and to contribute to society. As the day passed by,
the lecture style learning, rpte learning was already sufficient and in today's,
technology is also part of education where helps students to be productive
workers. In todays, many students are already good in using technology, they
learned fast and knows how to function differently in our technology - rich
society, which it was good for the employers who is looking for young
professionals who can think strategically.
This article defined 21st century learning as encompasses
a broad set of knowledge and skills which is very relevant for to enable
adaptability and flexibility. It focus on mastering such as analytic reasoning,
teamwork and complex problem solving. According to them, instead of focusing on
the three Rs which known as reading, writing and arithmetic, In todays, they
emphasize the teaching of four Cs which called critical thinking,
communication, collaboration and creativity.
The first C of 21st century learning is the Critical
thinking, they defined as the ability to analyze how parts of a whole interact
with each other to produce an overall outcome is essential. Through critical
thinking it helps you in effectiveness of problem solving and reasoning. It
talks about how you can make a decision and judgments. The next one is
Communication, it talks about the exchanging of information from one place to
another. They said that communication requires two key elements which first is
a person must learned to articulate thoughts and ideas through non verbal,
verbal and written method. And the second one is very important for us, which
is the effective listening so that to avoid misunderstanding and ofcourse to
interpret the meaning, knowledge, values and intentions. The third C is
Collaboration which talks about when a group of persons works together towards
a common goal. It takes place because each person comes with a different
knowledge and perspective, its very important to learned the importance of
working effectively to achieve successful outcomes. The last C is Creativity
which re-defined to reach beyond artistic expression to an ability to problem
solve – it’s a skill that can be strengthened through the application of
different idea creation techniques to form new ideas.
To support the 21st
century learning, we must consider these following elements. First is the
Project based learning which is needed to give students to work in real world.
Working with real data experts, tools helps them to become active and engage
themselves solving problems. The next one is, flexible learning spaces. To
accommodate the frequent changes of learning modes and tasks throughout the day,
classrooms can incorporate a combination of mobile and tiered furnishings with
a variety of seating options. And last is the Technology integration, the
integration of technology into flexible spaces helps keep students engaged.
This encourages students to become self-directed learners and leads to becoming
lifelong learners, a trait that makes them stronger leaders.

CREATIVE NONFICTION

Cultivating Convergence through Creative Nonfiction: Identity, Development, and the Metaphor of Transfer
This article discussed the Cultivating Convergence
through Creative Nonfiction. It discussed how Creative Nonfiction course can
create and play such as development. First is the transfer and convergence, it
says that by shifting the focus of transfer to identity and the development of
writerly self, we open up space in the conversation for creative writing to
stake a claim that such classes can be pivotal in that development. In making
creative writing part of the transfer discussion might provide renewed imperative
for the value of such courses in a climate of higher education increasingly
devoted to narrowing conceptions of professionalization. Next are the identity
and efficacy. It discussed the reflection of the writer in his/her works and
the authors look more carefully at the way certain dispositions affect the
capacity for transfer. According to this article, thee authors go on to
tactfully suggest that this is a neglected area of research, but as with other
areas of composition scholarship, they optimistically imply that transfer
studies can “self-correct to include the impact of the individual learner.
Creative Nonfiction as a community and method, it says that not only the type
or method of writing is the important. The point here is that this perception
of the writer and reader that there is an invested correspondence between the
persona of the nonfiction essay and the self of the writer is advantageous,
even therapeutic.
This type of relationship between text and author can
certainly exist in other types of expository or creative writing. Indeed, the
relationship of the speaker to the poet in lyric poetry is likely the
equivalent of that between the persona and writer in an essayistic creative
nonfiction text. And last, they discussed abscission which talks about the
choices of the image. In which, the image itself contains an interesting
contradiction as abscission is defined as the natural detachment of both dead
leaves and ripe fruit.

PHILIPPINE POLITICS AND GOVERNANCE

Philippine Politics Under Duterte: A Midterm Assessment
The Duterte’s government records regarding human rights
and democracy is undisputed disturbing. It has run in a forceful manner over
human rights, political opponents and the country’s democratic institutions.
The combination of the Philippines’ powerful presidency and the malleability of
most of its political institutions is comes out in significant democratic
backsliding. But focusing only on Duterte fails to apprehend the other two
important elements which defined as the extent to which this degradation has
happened through nominally legal means, and the limited pushback to date by
groups and institutions opposed to strongman rule.
In the year of 2016, Duterte elected as the new president of the Philippines because many people believed that he could deliver a real change like what he always saying and keep promising to citizens. The overarching theme of Duterte’s campaign was that his strong leadership would produce rapid change. During his campaign, he heaped criticism on the Manila-based elite, vowed to undertake a nationwide assault on illegal drugs and criminality, and promised to change the government to a federal system.
As he became a president, Duterte’s top priorities and
concerns are combating illegal drugs and crime, promoting rapid infrastructure
development, sustaining economic growth and making it more inclusive, enhancing
peace and development in Mindanao, and reorienting the Philippines’ foreign
relations.
Duterte promised to bring
a change within months, but some of its are failed, however there are still
some improvements and continue to believed presents himself as the only leader
strong and decisive enough to save the nation.
