Prospects of Internet Cafes

My opinion about prospect for Internet Cafe in my area is Low.

I get that opinion because my area is vulnerable to get lightning strike. That condition had been happened to one of internet cafe near my area when heavy rain/downpour happens. The lightning strike caused damage to several computers and internet network at that internet cafe.

But if someone wants to build an internet cafe near my area, he/she can build internet cafe with lightning rod but it doesn't guarantee condition computers and network during lightning strike happens. So beside using the lightning rod, the internet cafe needs to stop their network with plug out your network from server or modem during heavy rain/downpour was happening. With that the electricity from lightning not flowing to server or computer cable.

SIMPLIFIED STYLE

This is another modification of the fully-blocked style. This style is used when you write a letter and you do not know the name and title of the person to whom you are writing the letter. The salutation and the complimentary closing are used in this style. The subject is mentioned din capital fonts and that subject need not be underlined. 

Today around all the business houses, this style is widely used when the writer of the letters does not want to give importance to formality. Since the formality is not adopted here, this style goes to the heart of the addressee. This style give more importance only to the core matter of the letter.

Metode Ilmiah

Metode Ilmiah

Metode ilmiah

Metode ilmiah atau proses ilmiah merupakan proses keilmuan untuk memperoleh pengetahuan secara sistematis berdasarkan bukti fisis. Ilmuwan melakukan observasi serta membentuk hipotesis dalam usahanya untuk menjelaskan fenomena alam. Prediksi yang dibuat berdasarkan hipotesis tersebut diuji dengan melakukan eksperimen. Jika suatu hipotesis lolos uji berkali-kali, hipotesis tersebut dapat menjadi suatu teori ilmiah.

Menurut Almadk (1939),” metode ilmiah adalah cara menerapkan prinsip-prinsip logis terhadap penemuan, pengesahan dan penjelasan kebenaran. Sedangkan Ostle (1975) berpendapat bahwa metode ilmiah adalah pengejaran terhadap sesuatu untuk memperoleh sesuatu interelasi.”

Selain itu Metode Ilmiah merupakan suatu cara sistematis yang digunakan oleh para ilmuwan untuk memecahkan masalah yang dihadapi. Metode ini menggunakan langkah-langkah yang sistematis, teratur dan terkontrol. Pelaksanaan metode ilmiah ini meliputi enam tahap, yaitu:

1.  Merumuskan masalah. Masalah adalah sesuatu yang harus diselesaikan.

2. Mengumpulkan keterangan, yaitu segala informasi yang mengarah dan dekat pada pemecahan masalah. Sering disebut juga mengkaji teori atau kajian pustaka.

3. Menyusun hipotesis. Hipotesis merupakan jawaban sementara yang disusun berdasarkan data atau keterangan yang diperoleh selama observasi atau telaah pustaka.

4.  Menguji hipotesis dengan melakukan percobaan atau penelitian.

5. Mengolah data (hasil) percobaan dengan menggunakan metode statistik untuk menghasilkan kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian dengan metode ini adalah data yang objektif, tidak dipengaruhi subyektifitas ilmuwan peneliti dan universal (dilakukan dimana saja dan oleh siapa saja akan memberikan hasil yang sama).

6. Menguji kesimpulan. Untuk meyakinkan kebenaran hipotesis melalui hasil percobaan perlu dilakukan uji ulang. Apabila hasil uji senantiasa mendukung hipotesis maka hipotesis itu bisa menjadi kaidah (hukum) dan bahkan menjadi teori.

Metode ilmiah didasari oleh sikap ilmiah. Sikap ilmiah semestinya dimiliki oleh   setiap penelitian dan ilmuwan. Adapun sikap ilmiah yang dimaksud adalah :

1. Rasa ingin tahu

2. Jujur (menerima kenyataan hasil penelitian dan tidak mengada-ada)

3. Objektif (sesuai fakta yang ada, dan tidak dipengaruhi oleh perasaan pribadi)

4. Tekun (tidak putus asa)

5. Teliti (tidak ceroboh dan tidak melakukan kesalahan)

6. Terbuka (mau menerima pendapat yang benar dari orang lain)

Karakteristik Metode Ilmiah diantaranya :

1. Karya Ilmiah Harus Berdasarkan Fakta

Menulis karya ilmiah harus berdasarkan fakta, bukan hasil imajinasi atau semacammnya . dan fakta” itu berupa data empiris yang harus dapat diukur dan dianalisis lebih lanjud .

2. Karya Ilmiah Harus Berdasarkan Pertimbangan Objektif

Pertimbangan objektif didasarkan pada pertimbangan apa adanya bukan bsifat subyektif, bebas dari prasangka dan kira”.

3. Karya Ilmiah Harus Menggunakan Asas Analisis

Maksudnya, karya ilmiah itu harus dapat dianalisis (diuraikan, dibandingkan, diinterpretasikan). yang artinya karya ilmiah harus dapat menggambarkan karakteristik , fungsi dan kaitan pmasalahan satu dg lainnya.


4. Karya Ilmiah Harus Bersifat Kuantitatif – Kualitatif

Pendekatan ilmiah beda dengan pendekatan alamiah. kalo pendekatan ilmiah itu sifatnya kuantitatif tapi kalo pendekatan alamiah itu sifatnya kualitatif.

5. Karya Ilmiah Menggunakan Logika Deduktif – Hipotetik

Logika deduktif adalah penalaran yg bertitik tolak dan hal-hal yg sifatnya umum yg sudah memiliki kebenaran yg pasti baik dr hasil penelitian para pakar ato dr yg lainnya. Kebenaran hipotesis harus dibuktikan secara empiris melalui penelitian lapangan maka disebut bahwa karya ilmiah tersebut sesuai logika deduktif-hipotetik

6. Karya Ilmiah Harus Menggunakan Logika Induktif Generalisasi

Kebenaran hipotesis bersifat rasional, oleh karenanya bersifat sementara . Untuk memperoleh kebenaran ilmiah masih harus dibuktikan dengan data empiris hasil penelitian . ksimpulan dr data empiris bsifat generalisasi. sdangkan kesesuaian data empiris dengan pemikiran rasional hipotesis disebut asas korespondensi. kesimpulan yg bersifat generalisasi dr data empiris disebut logika induktif yg kebenrannya bersifat probabilistik.

Langkah-Langkah Dalam Metode Ilmiah :

      Metode ilmiah dalam meneliti mempunyai kriteria serta langkah-langkah tertentu dalam Metode ilmiah bekerja. seperti di bawah ini.

1. Perumusan masalah

Permasalahan merupakan pertanyaan ilmiah yang harus diselesaikan. Permasalahan dinyatakan dalam pertanyaan terbuka yaitu pertanyaan dengan jawaban berupa suatu pernyataan, bukan jawaban ya atau tidak.

• Batasi permasalahan seperlunya agar tidak terlalu luas.

• Pilih permasalahan yang penting dan menarik untuk diteliti

• Pilih permasalahan yang dapat diselesaikan secara eksperimen


2. Penyusunan kerangka berfikir

Penyusunan kerangka berfikir dalam pengajuan hpotesis yang merupakan argumentasi yang menjelaskan hubungan yang mungkin terdapat antara berbagai factor yang saling mengkait dan membentuk konstelasi permasalahan kerangka berfikir ini di susun secara rasional berdasarkan permis-premis ilmiah yang telah teruji kebenarannya dengan memperhatikan factor- factor empiris yang relevan dengan permasalahan.


3. Perumusan hipotesa

Hipotesis merupakan suatu ide atau dugaan sementara tentang penyelesaian masalah yang diajukan dalam proyek ilmiah. Hipotesis dirumuskan atau dinyatakan sebelum penelitian yang seksama atas topik proyek ilmiah dilakukan, karenanya kebenaran hipotesis ini perlu diuji lebih lanjut melalui penelitian yang seksama. Yang perlu diingat, jika menurut hasil pengujian ternyata hipotesis tidak benar bukan berarti penelitian yang dilakukan salah.

• Gunakan pengalaman atau pengamatan lalu sebagai dasar hipotesis

• Rumuskan hipotesis sebelum memulai proyek eksperimen


4. Pengujian hipotesa

Eksperimen dirancang dan dilakukan untuk menguji hipotesis yang diajukan. Perhitungkan semua variabel, yaitu semua yang berpengaruh pada eksperimen. Ada tiga jenis variabel yang perlu diperhatikan pada eksperimen: variabel bebas, variabel terikat, dan variabel kontrol.

Varibel bebas merupakan variabel yang dapat diubah secara bebas. Variabel terikat adalah variabel yang diteliti, yang perubahannya bergantung pada variabel bebas. Variabel kontrol adalah variabel yang selama eksperimen dipertahankan tetap.

• Usahakan hanya satu variabel bebas selama eksperimen.

• Pertahankan kondisi yang tetap pada variabel-variabel yang diasumsikan konstan.

• Lakukan eksperimen berulang kali untuk memvariasi hasil.

• Catat hasil eksperimen secara lengkap dan seksama.

5. Penarikan kesimpulan

Kesimpulan proyek merupakan ringkasan hasil proyek eksperimen dan pernyataan bagaimana hubungan antara hasil eksperimen dengan hipotesis. Alasan-alasan untuk hasil eksperimen yang bertentangan dengan hipotesis termasuk di dalamnya. Jika dapat dilakukan, kesimpulan dapat diakhiri dengan memberikan pemikiran untuk penelitian lebih lanjut.

Jika hasil eksperimen tidak sesuai dengan hipotesis:

• Jangan ubah hipotesis

• Jangan abaikan hasil eksperimen

• Berikan alasan yang masuk akal mengapa tidak sesuai

• Berikan cara-cara yang mungkin dilakukan selanjutnya untuk menemukan penyebab ketidaksesuaian

• Bila cukup waktu lakukan eksperimen sekali lagi atau susun ulang eksperimen.
