Abstract

The objective of this study was to evaluate the variations of twelve chemical elements (Ni, Fe, Co, Mg, Mn, Al, Si, Zn, Ti, P, Ca and Cr) in laterite soil profiles from Wantulasi area in South East Sulawesi Province of Indonesia. Eighty four (84) samples of three profiles (i.e. each profile consists of eight samples) had been used to study their variations in soil using the X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF). Results analysis of the chemical elements content in three profile using XRF indicated that there were good correlationsbetween the chemical elements in the soil profile with the significant correlations were found in Ni and Fe, Ni and Si, Ti and P, Fe and Al, and Co and Mn, respectively. On the other hand,the results of study showed that the variations of the chemical elements could be related to the enrichment and translocation of the elements in soil profile and also their possibilities to be related with a given chemical elements in soil profile. Therefore, we suggest that the observed patterns in chemical elements with a good correlation in laterite profile can be used as proxies to integrate the evaluation of the chemical and physical weathering process based on the elements characteristics in soil profiles.

Abstract

Patchouli (Pogostemon cablin Benth.) is one of the main agricultural commodities cultivated by the community in Mataupe Village. However, the economic condition of patchouli farmers varies considerably, indicating the need for a more in-depth study of their socioeconomic aspects. This research aims to describe the economic condition of patchouli farmers in Mataupe Village, Andoolo Barat Subdistrict, South Konawe Regency. The study employed a descriptive qualitative method, with data collected through observation, questionnaires, and documentation. The results showed that the size of farmland managed by farmers varies: 15 farmers (36%) cultivate less than 0.5 hectares, 15 farmers (36%) cultivate 0.5 hectares, 10 farmers (24%) manage between 0.5–2 hectares, and only 2 farmers (4%) own 2 hectares of land. In terms of income, based on BPS (Central Bureau of Statistics) classification, 33 farmers (78.6%) fall into the very high-income category, 6 farmers (14.3%) into the high-income category, and 3 farmers (7.1%) into the moderate-income category. Regarding household expenditure, 2 farmers (5%) have very high expenditures, 11 farmers (26%) high, 18 farmers (43%) moderate, and 11 farmers (26%) low. These findings illustrate the diverse economic capacities among patchouli farmers in Mataupe Village, which are strongly influenced by differences in land size, production scale, and household spending priorities.

Abstract

The critical thinking ability of students at SMAN 12 Kendari is still relatively low because the learning process tends to be teacher-centered. This study aims to: 1) determine student activities in applying critical thinking skills during learning the Introduction to Geography material, and 2) determine teacher activities after applying the Problem Based Learning (PBL) learning model on the same material. This study is a classroom action research. The results of the study indicate that: 1) the implementation of learning using PBL in cycle I obtained an average activity score of 2.7 by teachers and 2.5 by students, while in cycle II it increased to 3.5 for teachers and 3.6 for students; 2) students' critical thinking ability based on the Learning Objective Achievement Criteria of 75 also increased, where the percentage of completion in cycle I reached 70%, and increased in cycle II to 93.33%. Thus, it can be concluded that the application of the PBL learning model is effective in improving students' critical thinking ability in the Introduction to Geography material at SMAN 12 Kendari. This PBL model can be used as an alternative learning strategy that encourages students to be more active and analytical, while also helping teachers create a more student-centered learning process.
