"We've all heard of "IQ"...but what's "EQ?" It's "Emotional Quotient" (aka Emotional Intelligence), and experts say that EQ is a greater predictor of success at work than IQ. Companies are increasingly looking for ways to motivate and develop their employees' emotional intelligence.

"In what ways does music enrich the lives of people and of societies? What prevents it from doing so? In this carefully researched and insightful study, Hesmondhalgh examines the role of music in our lives, and how people forge connections with others through music. However, it also argues that music cannot remain unaffected by the inequalities that stain modern life. Through this critical defense of music, a variety of theories and approaches are brought together. In doing so, Hesmondhalgh provides a distinctive and valuable perspective on the general subject of music that builds on previous research from a variety of fields but also goes beyond them in instructive new ways. The result is a landmark study of the social value of music and an indispensable contribution to a variety of intersecting fields, written with enormous clarity, by a leading music scholar. Listen to David Hesmondhalgh discuss the arguments at the core of 'Why Music Matters' with Laurie Taylor on BBC Radio 4's Thinking Allowed here. In what ways might music enrich the lives of people and of societies? What prevents it from doing so? Why Music Matters explores the role of music in our lives, and investigates the social and political significance of music in modern societies.

The Focus of this study is about electronic books service in the library center, University of Indonesia, which discusses the characteristics of the users and electronic books services in 2009. Electronic books service provide benefits to the user include remote access without limited of the time and place, to increase interest in reading and information technology literacy, to help research and learning activities, and convenience of using or saving multiple electronic books title in one device. Research method in this research using a quantitative approach. This type of research that is descriptive analytical research survey with a cross-sectional study design. Research results suggest that libraries need to conduct promotion/dissemination, training /education about the electronic book and electronic books in the library center, University of Indonesia more easily searchable (user friendly)."

"In the next five years, sixteen million high school students will graduate, making up the largest group of high school graduates in this country's history. Those students who are fortunate enough to be on the honor roll or the star quarterback of the football team will have access to the best scholarships. But what will happen to the rest of them-those students who have the potential for a great college career, but not necessarily the financial backing to attend the school of their dreams? Author Kimberly Stezala passionately believes that every student should have access to a quality education. Now, she shows parents and their kids how to approach the scholarship process like a pro. Filled with inspiring advice from successful students and scholarship providers, Scholarships 101 shows aspiring college students how to: apply for those scholarships that are the best match for their profile and skills, create a scholarship application that will stand apart from the rest and impress the judges, find the buried treasure of scholarships that aren't necessarily available on common websites, build a team of supporters in their scholarship quest Straightforward and savvy, this book provides the extra boost many students need to plan for their futures and receive the education they deserve."

"Bidang pendidikan menjadi salah satu bidang aktivitas sehari-hari masyarakat yang terdampak tren digitalisasi secara signifikan yang berjalan beriringan dengan perkembangan teknologi yang semakin pesat dewasa ini. Digitalisasi proses pembelajaran memberikan lebih banyak pilihan pada pengguna untuk mengakses ilmu atau informasi dengan menggunakan buku elektronik yang jumlah penggunanya semakin meningkat relatif terhadap pengguna buku konvensional yang mengindikasikan terjadinya fenomena peralihan (switching). Berdasarkan fenomena tersebut, penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui apa saja faktor-faktor push-pull-mooring (PPM) yang memengaruhi niatan pengguna untuk beralih (switching intention) dari menggunakan buku konvensional ke buku elektronik dengan menerapkan metodologi penelitian secara mixed-method berupa kualitatif dan kuantitatif. Tahapan penelitian kualitatif menggunakan metode wawancara mendapatkan data kualitatif dari 11 narasumber yang dianalisis menggunakan grounded theory untuk mengidentifikasi, memahami, serta merumuskan indikator-indikator dari faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi switching intention yang disusun pada model PPM. Selain itu, ditemukan tiga faktor baru, yaitu advanced features, eye health issue, dan usage experience. Selanjutnya, tahapan penelitian kuantitatif menggunakan metode survey mendapatkan data kuantitatif dari 392 responden yang dianalisis menggunakan PLS-SEM. Ditemukan bahwa faktor-faktor yang signifikan (α < 0,05) memengaruhi switching intention adalah inconvenience, price perception, perceived usefulness, habit, subjective norm, dan usage experience. Sedangkan, advanced features, eye health issue, dan perceived ease of use bukan merupakan faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi switching intention. Dikonfirmasi juga bahwa switching intention memengaruhi switching behavior. Penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi teoretis berupa dibuktikannya pengaruh signifikan dari faktor baru usage experience terhadap switching intention serta konfirmasi hasil penelitian-penelitian PPM sebelumnya. Penelitian ini juga memberikan kontribusi praktis kepada pengguna buku berupa saran penggunaan. Selain itu, kontribusi praktis bagi penerbit buku konvensional dan pengembang perangkat membaca buku elektronik, secara berurutan, merupakan saran untuk meningkatkan daya saing buku konvensional dan buku elektronik.

Education has become one of the areas of daily community activities significantly impacted by the digitalization trend, which is progressing in line with the increasingly rapid development of technology today. The digitalization of the learning process provides more options for users to access knowledge or information using electronic books, whose number of users is increasing relatively to conventional book users, indicating the occurrence of a switching phenomenon. Based on this phenomenon, this study aims to determine the push-pull-mooring (PPM) factors that influence users' intention to switch (switching intention) from using conventional books to electronic books by applying a mixed-method research methodology, namely qualitative and quantitative. The qualitative research stage used the interview method to obtain qualitative data from 11 interviewees, which was analyzed using grounded theory to identify, understand, and formulate indicators of the factors influencing switching intention compiled in the PPM model. In addition, three new factors were found, namely advanced features, eye health issues, and usage experience. Furthermore, the quantitative research stage used the survey method to obtain quantitative data from 392 respondents, which was analyzed using PLS-SEM. It was found that the significant factors (α < 0,05) influencing switching intention are inconvenience, price perception, perceived usefulness, habit, subjective norm, and usage experience. Meanwhile, advanced features, eye health issues, and perceived ease of use are not factors influencing switching intention. It is also confirmed that switching intention influences switching behavior. This research provides a theoretical contribution in the form of proving the significant influence of the new usage experience factor on switching intention and confirming the results of previous PPM studies. This research also provides practical contributions to book users in the form of usage suggestions. In addition, the practical contributions for conventional book publishers and developers of electronic book reading devices are, respectively, suggestions for increasing the competitiveness of conventional books and electronic books."
