Abstract

Synthetic stains such as Giemsa and Wright remain the standard reagents for blood smear examination, but their repeated use in teaching laboratories raises concerns related to cost, handling safety, and chemical waste. This study evaluated the color characteristics of Morning Glory (Ipomoea purpurea) flower extract as a natural stain for avian blood smear preparations and identified the best-performing tested concentration under the present experimental conditions. A laboratory experiment was conducted using ethanol-macerated Morning Glory extract adjusted to pH 4 and tested at 70%, 80%, and 90%, with unstained smears, methylene blue, and Giemsa as comparators. Blood smears from Columba livia were observed microscopically and evaluated using an ordinal rubric covering clarity, contrast, structural integrity, intensity, and cleanliness, alongside UV-Vis absorbance measurement. The extract showed a maximum wavelength at 641 nm, and absorbance increased with concentration, reaching 2.836 AU at 90%. However, the best microscopic performance among the natural-stain treatments was obtained at 80%, which yielded the highest clarity and contrast scores within the extract group. Kruskal-Wallis analysis indicated significant differences among treatments for clarity (p = 0.003) and contrast (p = 0.001). Although the Morning Glory extract did not match the performance of methylene blue and Giemsa, the 80% preparation showed pilot-level potential as a greener alternative for teaching laboratories and initial smear observation. These findings should be interpreted cautiously because the study was limited to one avian source, relied primarily on visual scoring, and did not yet include objective image-based analysis or long-term stain-stability testing.

Abstract

Assessment is essential to the curriculum to measure and assess competency levels. The implementation of the independent learning curriculum assessment is directed at sustainable assessments. A meaningful learning process requires a good, planned, and irrational assessment system. The research aims to describe the characteristics of the assessment in the implementation of the independent curriculum, including the knowledge of the school community, the process of planning, implementation, processing of assessment results, reporting on learning progress and obstacles along with school and teacher solutions in carrying out assessments in the independent curriculum. This research is qualitative descriptive. The study was conducted in June-December 2022 at SMP Muhammadiyah 02 Batu. The research population was all teachers at SMP Muhammadiyah 02 Batu. The research sample was all SMP Muhammadiyah 02 Batu teachers using a saturated sampling technique. The instruments used are interview guidelines, observations, and documentation. Data analysis was carried out descriptively. The results showed that the teacher understood the independent learning curriculum well. Schools began to apply learning and assessment principles, planning lessons and assessments, understanding learning outcomes, planning learning and assessments, implementing learning and assessments, and processing and reporting assessment results. Teachers generally carry out summative and formative assessments, while minimal diagnostic assessments are carried out. Regardless of the results of the research, future researchers can make efforts to assist teachers in overcoming obstacles to implementing assessments in the independent curriculum.

Abstract

The Project for Strengthening the Pancasila Student Profile utilized a Project-based Learning (PjBL) approach, distinguishing it from intracurricular PjBL programs. The implementation of this project in schools remains complex due to its novelty and the ongoing search for an effective model for planning, implementation, and evaluation. The objectives of this study were as follows: (1) to describe the implementation of the PjBL model in the Project for Strengthening the Pancasila Student Profile at a Muhammadiyah junior high school in Batu City, (2) to describe the development of the Pancasila Student Profile after the implementation of the PjBL model in the Project for Strengthening the Pancasila Student Profile, and (3) to outline the challenges faced by the school and their corresponding solutions in implementing the PjBL model in the Project for Strengthening the Pancasila Student Profile. This research adopted a descriptive and qualitative approach. Data collection techniques encompassed in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation studies. The findings revealed that: (1) the implementation of the PjBL model in the Project for Strengthening the Pancasila Student Profile commenced with material mastery, followed by project execution, and concluded with a celebration, (2) the students demonstrated good character development in alignment with the Pancasila Student Profile, which consists of six competencies formulated as key dimensions, and (3) the encountered challenges in implementing the PjBL model in the Project for Strengthening the Pancasila Student Profile included difficulties in determining the appropriate time for implementing the P5 Project due to the teachers' busy schedules. In conclusion, the activities of the Project for Strengthening the Pancasila Student Profile, utilizing the PjBL approach, have been successfully carried out and have led to the formation of the Pancasila student profile, although there have been implementation obstacles. The best practices observed at Muhammadiyah Middle School in Batu City can serve as an inspiration for other Muhammadiyah schools and private institutions. Widespread implementation of such practices poses a challenge for future researchers.
