Purpose – Problem-solving approaches to research have dominated the not-for-profit festival management field. Little attention has been paid to how festival organizations successfully create cultures where knowledge transfer is practised within the high intensity of a festival life cycle. Drawing upon insights from social practice theory and appreciative inquiry (AI), the purpose of this paper is to offer a different conceptual approach to understanding how knowledge transfer “works” as an organizational practice to produce a collaborative festival culture. Design/methodology/approach – This paper draws upon an ethnographic case study with the highly acclaimed Queensland Music Festival organization in Australia. The research questions and methods were framed around an appreciative approach that identified formal and informal practices that " worked " rather than a conventional problem-focused analysis. Findings – This research focused on appreciating the cultural context that shaped the interrelationships between formal and informal knowledge transfer practices that enabled trust and collaboration. A range of knowledge transfer practices was identified that contributed to the creation of a shared festival ethos and the on-going sustainability of the festival vision. Practical implications – The not-for-profit sector brings numerous challenges for festival organizations, and there is a need to appreciate how collaborative and creative knowledge transfer can occur formally and informally. Festival organizers can benefit from understanding the relational and practice dimensions of knowledge management as they are performed within specific organizational contexts. Originality/value – An appreciative understanding of knowledge transfer practices has not yet been applied to not-for-profit festival organizations, where problem-solving approaches dominate the field.

AbstractUnderstanding how students learn is crucial for helping them succeed. We examined brain function in 107 undergraduate students during a task known to be challenging for many students—physics problem solving—to characterize the underlying neural mechanisms and determine how these support comprehension and proficiency. Further, we applied module analysis to response distributions, defining groups of students who answered by using similar physics conceptions, and probed for brain differences linked with different conceptual approaches. We found that integrated executive, attentional, visual motion, and default mode brain systems cooperate to achieve sequential and sustained physics-related cognition. While accuracy alone did not predict brain function, dissociable brain patterns were observed when students solved problems by using different physics conceptions, and increased success was linked to conceptual coherence. Our analyses demonstrate that episodic associations and control processes operate in tandem to support physics reasoning, offering potential insight to support student learning.

Indonesia as a welfare state aims to realize public welfare. This underlies the development of social security by the Indonesian government, which one is through health insurance. In Practice, the goal of creating BPJS is not compatible with reality, provable by a wide variety of issues that are difficult to solve. One of them is the problem with the management of claims for the BPJS. As for the subject of this study is health insurance, specifically management claims. The study uses normative legal research methods to adopt a statute approach, a conceptual approach, and a case approach. Studies have shown that despite efforts by the government to address the problem, but those efforts didn’t work because of some inhibitory factors. Needed solutions to the formation and application of the IMP (Identity Monitoring Program) concept and it is integrated with Disduk Capil to BPJS. The concept of IMP’s implementation is expected to a minimized deficit on BPJS and solving gone of the causes problems is claim management.

Problem solving is a critical feature of highly quantitative physical science topics, such as chemical kinetics. In order to solve a problem, students must cue into relevant features, ignore irrelevant features, and choose among potential problem-solving approaches. However, what is considered appropriate or productive for problem solving is highly context-dependent. This study is part of a larger project centered on students’ integration of chemistry and mathematics knowledge and skills. The data for this study came from semi-structured interviews with 40 general chemistry students using a think-aloud protocol. Interview prompts involved students working through two chemical kinetics problems, one involving a second-order system and one involving a zero-order system. In both cases, students could solve the problem using the data provided and relevant equations, or by taking a conceptual approach and considering the relationship between quantities. Using the resource-based model of cognition as our theoretical framework, analysis focused on characterizing the productive and unproductive problem-solving routes used by students. Findings emphasize the role of using conceptual reasoning and reflecting on one's work during problem solving, which have implications for instructors as they guide students to think about chemical kinetics and to solve problems across quantitative topics in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.

Various problems that occur in a community, is a social phenomenon that has existed since the start of human life. Problem solving methods that can be taken is basically divided into two, namely the completion of the litigation and non-litigation pathway. In fact, if there is a problem, especially with regard to criminal law (criminal case), the model of problem solving is always done using the path of litigation. The settlement of this litigation by using paths in practice does not always go according to what is expected due to the settlement of litigation by using the path in the traditional criminal justice system today would lead to new problems such as: pattern of retaliatory punishment still, causing a buildup of the case, do not pay attention to the rights of the victim, not in accordance with the principle of simple justice; process is long, complicated and expensive, and the settlement is legistis stiff, does not restore the effects of crime, prisons conditions are not adequate, does not reflect justice for the community and so although, the law was made essentially to provide fairness and benefits to humans. Looking at these phenomena, in the latest development emerged a new concept or approach the concept of restorative justice. The concept of restorative justice approaches assessed or can cope with various problems in the traditional criminal justice system as mentioned above.This study will discuss the application of restorative justice in terms of the integrated criminal justice system in Indonesia. This research is a descriptive normative legal analysis. The approach used is a statutory approach, conceptual approach, and the principles of law.Keywords: Restorative Justice, Integrated Criminal Justice System.

AbstractIn the past decades, the search for a more sustainable way of global development has increased in importance in international politics and economy. A driving force is the continuing degradation of the environment in many areas of the world, often caused or accelerated by population growth and climate change. Sustainable development is seen as key approach to mitigate these processes. It has been defined as “development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” But how can this ambitious goal be achieved in the light of numerous global challenges? Engineering is a very influential human practice and must be addressed in this context. Engineers are crucially involved in design and construction of our built environment and thus in shaping almost its entire development. However, when designing a solution for a given problem, effects caused outside of the system borders are often not considered. If this is combined with a narrowly confined linear problem-solving approach, it is inherently prone to create new environmental challenges. We postulate that the development of a new design paradigm for engineering must be part of the progress towards sustainable development. We think that this new paradigm needs to integrate a sound understanding of ecological principles, processes, and interdependencies as well as thorough system thinking. We call this ecology-inspired approach to engineering “ecological engineering” and redefine it as follows: Ecological Engineering integrates ecological principles, processes, and organisms with existing engineering practice to a holistic approach for problem-solving. In this paper, we explore the historical development of earlier definitions of Ecological Engineering in the light of their underlying value systems. Based on this analysis, we propose a new conceptual approach for Ecological Engineering and define seven principles that point the way towards a future label that can be conferred to Good Ecological Engineering Practice.
