Abstract

The purpose of science learning is to master knowledge, understand and apply the concept of science, apply the skills of the science process and develop the attitude of science. Biology is a part of science, so to achieve the goal in the learning must be in accordance with the nature of science, namely science as a process, product, attitude, and application. Assessment of the achievement of knowledge competence is an assessment of students' intellectual/cognitive potential in biology learning, for which a valid and reliable assessment instrument is required. The assessment instrument reviewed here is a written test instrument. Written tests for measuring cognitive abilities can be distinguished into tests for measuring low-level cognitive abilities and measuring high-level cognitive abilities including analytical thinking skills. Analytical thinking skills is very important as a basis in solving problems faced by students especially in Biology learning. Therefore, teachers need to train students with problem-based learning solving and practice questions in the form of higher order thinking test. The form of higher order thinking test can be a choice test (chosen response test) that can measure analytical thinking skills in high school biology learning with respect to substantial aspects, constructs and language.

Abstract

This research aims to develop a virtual laboratory Android application entitled "Bacterial Culture" as an innovative learning media in Microbiology courses. This application simulates the bacterial culture process, including media preparation, sterilization techniques, inoculation, and analysis of results. This research is a Research and Development (R&D) study using the Borg and Gall model which was adapted into six stages. The design validation stage includes validation of media and material experts, namely microbiology lecturers and small group trials involving third semester Biology Education students at IAIN Kudus. The results of expert validation by microbiology course lecturers show that this media obtained a validity score of 91.6% (very valid), and practicality testing by 3rd semester students obtained a score of 61.6% (Special). These findings indicate that the virtual laboratory "Bacterial Culture" is a learning medium that can support students' understanding of bacterial culture practicum before carrying out practicum in the laboratory. This study contributes to the progress of technology-based education which is aligned with the Independent Campus Learning Curriculum (MBKM).

Abstract

Clitoria ternatea L. or telang flower is widely used as a natural food coloring, herbal tea and also as an additional active ingredient in pharmacological products. C. ternatea contains antioxidants are good for protecting cells from free radicals, maintaining the immune system, anti-aging and good for skin health. The aim of this research was to determine the gel formulation of C. ternatea flower extract regarding its total flavonoid content. The formulation results have gone through physical quality tests and total flavonoid tests. Physical quality test parameters include organoleptic test, homogeneity test, pH test, spreadability test, hedonic test, moisture test, and irritation test. The high extract content will increase the flavonoid content in the gel formulation, and it also make the color of the preparation more intense (purplish blue), making it less preferred by users. Therefore, from the hedonic test results, it is known that is preferred by users is with a concentration of C. ternatea condensed extract of 1%. The last formulation showed that the total flavonoid content of C. ternatea gel formulation had a total flavonoid content of 63.21 ug/g using UV-Vis spectrophotometry. This flavonoid content indicates that the gel formulation contains antioxidants are good for skin health.

Abstract

The study of literacy always becomes the main issue in education, because this skill is a benchmark for the progress and development of a nation. Indonesia is a large country with a large area, however with its wide area it turns out to be an obstacle in terms of equalizing education in Indonesia. In fact, some rural villages have not had adequate access to education and it causes the paradigm about education among rural villages is less open.  Moreover, Indonesia is a country which majority of the population are Muslims, so the literacy skills improvement program which is being pursued should have an Islamic value. . Unfortunately, there have not been many reviews about increasing literacy skills based on Islamic education. Therefore, it needs an effort that can develop literacy skills for children especially for the nation's next generation. The fostering of villages youth organizations through the Islamic Reading Center (IRC) which aims to increase children's literacy is a literacy collaborative (LC) program starting from rural villages’ level, local government and central government which involves youth organization from the rural villages’ level, sub-district, regency, education and culture agency, social agency, regional and national libraries, and the directorate general of Islamic education of religious ministry of Republic of Indonesia. The Islamic reading center provides Islamic books and media that can be managed by the youth organizations in a rural village. So, through Islamic reading centers and literacy activities, it can increase literacy skills in rural villages which need more attention in education.
