Jawa 10 Jember, Indonesia, [email protected] Djemari Mardapi Prof., Educational Research and Evaluation Department, Yogyakarta State University, Indonesia, [email protected] Zuhdan Kun Prasetyo Prof., Faculty of Science, Yogyakarta State University, Indonesia, [email protected] The analysis of the Test Instruments’ quality is a crucial thing needs to be conducted. The test instruments made by teachers must fulfil the requirements (validity, reliability, and standard error of measurement) until the measurement result obtained can describe the students’ actual abilities. This research aims to analyse the content validity (quantitative and qualitative), empirical validity, reliability, and standard error of measurement of semester final exam test instruments on Physics Grade XII Senior High School academic year 2017/2018 designed by teachers. The data analysis was based on 5 question documents (135 items) made by teachers and 555 answer sheets of the students at five schools. The research results show that teachers’ ability in making the test instruments of the semester final exam is still limited. It is proven as a problem found through the representation of the analysis result based on the test of content validity, empirical validation, reliability and standard errors of measurement.

  • Birds of Gunung Tambora, Sumbawa, Indonesia: Effects of Altitude, the 1815 Cataclysmic Volcanic Eruption and Trade
    FORKTAIL 18 (2002): 49–61 Birds of Gunung Tambora, Sumbawa, Indonesia: effects of altitude, the 1815 cataclysmic volcanic eruption and trade COLIN R. TRAINOR In June-July 2000, a 10-day avifaunal survey on Gunung Tambora (2,850 m, site of the greatest volcanic eruption in recorded history), revealed an extraordinary mountain with a rather ordinary Sumbawan avifauna: low in total species number, with all species except two oriental montane specialists (Sunda Bush Warbler Cettia vulcania and Lesser Shortwing Brachypteryx leucophrys) occurring widely elsewhere on Sumbawa. Only 11 of 19 restricted-range bird species known for Sumbawa were recorded, with several exceptional absences speculated to result from the eruption. These included: Flores Green Pigeon Treron floris, Russet-capped Tesia Tesia everetti, Bare-throated Whistler Pachycephala nudigula, Flame-breasted Sunbird Nectarinia solaris, Yellow-browed White- eye Lophozosterops superciliaris and Scaly-crowned Honeyeater Lichmera lombokia. All 11 resticted- range species occurred at 1,200-1,600 m, and ten were found above 1,600 m, highlighting the conservation significance of hill and montane habitat. Populations of the Yellow-crested Cockatoo Cacatua sulphurea, Hill Myna Gracula religiosa, Chestnut-backed Thrush Zoothera dohertyi and Chestnut-capped Thrush Zoothera interpres have been greatly reduced by bird trade and hunting in the Tambora Important Bird Area, as has occurred through much of Nusa Tenggara. ‘in its fury, the eruption spared, of the inhabitants, not a although in other places some vegetation had re- single person, of the fauna, not a worm, of the flora, not a established (Vetter 1820 quoted in de Jong Boers 1995). blade of grass’ Francis (1831) in de Jong Boers (1995), Nine years after the eruption the former kingdoms of referring to the 1815 Tambora eruption.

  • The Syntax of Personal Pronouns in the Bima Language
    International Linguistics Research; Vol. 3, No. 2; 2020 ISSN 2576-2974 E-ISSN 2576-2982 https://doi.org/10.30560/ilr.v3n2p13 The Syntax of Personal Pronouns in the Bima Language Arafiq1 1 English Department, Mataram University, Mataram, Lombok, Indonesia Correspondence: Arafiq, English Department, Mataram University, Mataram, Lombok, Indonesia. E-mail: arafiq unram.ac.id Received: May 20, 2020; Accepted: June 1, 2020; Published: June 1, 2020 Abstract This article aims at describing the syntactic properties and distributions of Personal Pronouns in the Bima Language, a language spoken by approximately 9000 people who inhabit the eastern part of Sumbawa Island. This number of speakers does not include those who live in Reo Pota Manggarai, East Nusa Tenggara. The Bima Language is grouped into Sumba-Bima Subgroup of Central Malayo-Polynesian (CMP) branch of Austronesian Language. Data in this study are the linguistic units from morphems level to clausal level. The data were taken from conversations and monologues recorded in the real situations in which the Bima Language is used. The focus of this paper is to describe the personal pronoun system of the Bima Language, describing types of personal pronouns and their syntactic properties and distributions. Based on the analysis, the Bima Language has a set of morphologically independent personal pronouns (full pronouns) and a set of clitics. Both sets of personal pronouns show the same syntactic properties and distributions. These two sets of personal pronouns are able to occur as independent clausal arguments of both intransitive and transitive constructions. In addition to their distributions, these two sets of personal pronouns can occur with numerals, relatives, and NPs.

    S t a t e , C it y , C o m m e r c e : T h e C a s e o f B im a ' Henri Chambert-Loir On the map of the Lesser Sunda Islands, between Bali and Lombok in the west and Flores, Sumba, and Timor in the east, lies the island of Sumbawa, a compact, homogenous fief of Islam in the midst of a religious mosaic, of which history has not yet finished modi­ fying the pattern. From west to east the island, which forms part of the Nusa Tenggara province, is divided into three kabupaten : Sumbawa, Dompu, and Bima. Today the latter contains almost 430,000 inhabitants,* 1 of whom probably 70,000 live in the twin agglomera­ tions of Bima and Raba. The Present Town The Raba quarter developed at the beginning of this century when the kingdom of Bima was integrated into the Netherlands Indies. It contains the main administrative buildings: the offices of the bupati, located in the foimer house of the Assistant-Resident, the regional parliament (DPRD), and the local headquarters of the various administrative services. The urban center remains that of the former capital o f the sultanate, in the vicinity of the bay. In contrast to the governmental pole concentrated in Raba, the agglomeration of Bima contains the main centers of social life, both past and present. The former palace of the Sultans (N° 4 on Fig. 2) is an imposing masonry edifice built at the beginning of this century. Today it is practically deserted and will probably be converted into a museum.

  • Pelabuhan Bima Dalam Perdagangan Maritim Abad Ke XVII Suci Yati
    Attoriolog Jurnal Pemikiran Kesejarahan dan Pendidikan Sejarah Vol. 18 No. 2 (2020): 13-21 ISSN: 1412-5870 Pelabuhan Bima dalam Perdagangan Maritim Abad Ke XVII Suci Yati, Najamuddin, Bahri Prodi Pendidikan Sejarah Fakultas Ilmu Sosial Universitas Negeri Makassar [email protected] Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui latar belakang sejarah munculnya pelabuhan Bima, untuk mengetahui bagaimanakah dinamika pelabuhan Bima dalam kegiatan perdagangan Maritim abad XVII dan dampaknya terhadap bidang ekonomi, sosial dan budaya dengan mendiskripsikan bagaimana Bima sebagai kerajaan bahari lintas pulau. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa asal usul munculnya pelabuhan Bima pada dasarnya karena letak geografisnya, yang dimana Bima pada zaman tradisional menjadi tempat singgah kapal-kapal. Pelaut atau para pedagang yang berlayar diperairan nusantara yang mencari rempah-rempah di kepulauan Maluku pasti singgah di Bima untuk mengisi pasokan atau memenuhi kebutuhan lainya, kemudian melanjutkan perjalanan ke Maluku untuk mencari rempah-rempah. Sehingga seiring berjalanya waktu berkembang pula aktivitas lainnya yang mendukung Bima menjadi pelabuhan penting di Nusantara. Tidak hanya itu adanya pelabuhan Bima merupakan bagian dari kebutuhan Kesultanan Bima yang pada saat itu memegang peranan penting dalam perkembangan daerah Bima. Dinamika perdaganganyang terjadi di Pelabuhan Bima tidak terlepas karena adanya Angin Muson. Angin Muson Timur Laut dan Barat Laut dimanfaatkan para pedagang yang dari arah Barat untuk berlayar ke Timur maupun sebaliknya dan Angin Muson Utara dan Tenggara yang membuat para pedagang dari Makassar semakin intens di Nusa Tenggara. Komoditi yang dihasilkan seperti beras, kayu sapan, kuda maupun budak sebagai hasil utama saat itu mampu menggaet para pedagang-pedagang dari daerah lain untuk datang melakukan perniagaan. Terutama hubungan dengan para pedagang dari Gowa.

  • 1 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION This Chapter Concerns the Research
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION This chapter concerns the research background, research questions, purposes of the study, research scope, research significances, and definition of key terms. 1.1 Research Background Sambori language is a language actively used by the community of language speakers in Lambitu district of Bima Regency in West Nusa Tenggara/Nusa Tenggara Barat (NTB). The research on Sambori and Teta grouping as a language was carried out by Budasi (2019), in which these two languages are two different dialects which are derived from one language called Sambori language. Following that study, the Sambori language has a very different lexicon from the local languages in Bima Regency. Local linguists are doubtful that this language is the native language in Bima. On the other side, the study conducted by Budasi (2019), according to the statistical lexicon calculation, has succeeded in determining the Sambori language's kinship with other languages in West Nusa Tenggara/Nusa Tenggara Barat (NTB). It is said that this Sambori language has a very close relationship with other local languages in Bima. It also shows that Sambori dialect has a 98% similarity with Teta dialect. It means that they are two different dialects of the same language. According to Fernandez (1988), a dialect can be a derivative language if one has a kinship of languages that reaches 36% to 81%; both numbers have been found at 56%. 1 Sambori language is in line with the other four languages in Bima Regency: Toloweri, Sangar, Bima, Kolo, and Mbojo. Although this position of these languages is equal and has been analyzed statistically by Budasi (2019), there are still doubts by the local people in Bima that Sambori language is related to other languages.
