Abstract

This study was focused on finding out whether using visual dictionary can improve students’ vocabulary achievement or not. The sample of this study was students of a public junior high school in Belinyu, Bangka Belitung province. Based on the result analysis (Paired Sample T-Test), it shows that the mean difference of pre-test and post-test in experimental group was 23.88, while the mean difference of pre-test and post-test in control group was 20.00. In addition, the result of difference analysis in post-test of experimental and control group showed that the value of t obtained was 3.712 which exceed the critical value of t-table 2.00 (at the significant level p< 0.05 in two tailed testing with degree of freedom 61. It means that the null hypothesis was rejected and the research hypothesis was accepted. The result of this study revealed that the post-test scores were better than the pre-test scores of experimental group. It could be seen by comparing their means. The mean of the pre-test scores was (59.00) while the mean of the post-test scores was (82.88). In line with the result, the writer suggests that the Visual Dictionary was one of the effective methods to improve students’ enthusiasm in learning English.

Abstract

Pendahuluan: Hipertensi merupakan salah satu penyebab kematian tertinggi di dunia dan dikenal sebagai silent killer karena sering tidak bergejala namun dapat menimbulkan komplikasi serius seperti stroke dan gagal ginjal. Desa Lok Rawa, Kalimantan Selatan, memiliki angka penderita hipertensi yang cukup tinggi, sementara pengetahuan masyarakat mengenai pencegahan dan pengendaliannya masih rendah. Kondisi ini mendorong dilaksanakannya program CERIA TENSI (Cegah Risiko Hipertensi dengan Senam Ritmis dan Aktif) sebagai upaya edukasi dan pencegahan berbasis komunitas. Tujuan: Meningkatkan pengetahuan, kesadaran, dan keterampilan masyarakat Desa Lok Rawa, khususnya lansia dengan riwayat hipertensi tentang pencegahan dan pengendalian tekanan darah melalui edukasi kesehatan dan pelatihan senam ritmis dan aktif. Metode: Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat dilaksanakan selama satu bulan (11 Agustus–11 September 2025) menggunakan desain deskriptif partisipatif dengan rancangan pre-post activity. Prosedur meliputi tahap perencanaan, penyuluhan kesehatan interaktif, pemeriksaan tekanan darah gratis, pembagian media edukasi, dan pelatihan senam ritmis dan aktif. Evaluasi dilakukan melalui kuesioner pre-test dan post-test untuk mengukur peningkatan pengetahuan peserta. Hasil: Rata-rata skor pengetahuan masyarakat meningkat dari 63,43 pada pre-test menjadi 75,14 pada post-test, menunjukkan peningkatan sebesar 12%. Peserta mampu mempraktikkan gerakan senam ritmis dan aktif dengan benar, dan beberapa lansia menunjukkan penurunan tekanan darah setelah mengikuti kegiatan.  Simpulan: Program CERIA TENSI efektif meningkatkan pemahaman dan kesadaran masyarakat tentang hipertensi serta mendorong penerapan pola hidup sehat, termasuk integrasi senam ritmis dan aktif dalam rutinitas harian sebagai langkah pencegahan nonfarmakologis yang sederhana dan berkelanjutan.

Abstract

This study's goal is to find out if students in Bakti Parit Tiga High School's class XI can increase their vocabulary by using the Cake app using quasi experimental design. This study focused on employing narrative analysis to look at adjectives, nouns, and verbs in written language. The test results were statistically analyzed using t-test. The results of the study revealed that: (1) students in the treatment group that utilized the cake application achieved an average comprehension score of 94.79; (2) the control group achieved an average score of 88.89; and (3) students in the experimental group who used the cake application excelled at vocabulary mastery compared to the control group at a significance level of 0.03. Since, the two-tailed significant level of 0.03 was lower than the computed significance level, and the t-value of 3.058 was more than the t-critical value of 2.005. The alternative hypothesis (Ha) was validated while the null hypothesis (Ho) was not supported. Based on the previously mentioned data, it can be concluded that there was a significant difference in the students' vocabulary levels according to how they used the Cake app for learning.

Abstract

This research aims to explore the use of AI in reading comprehension classes in Indonesia. This explorative research uses various references to gain a conclusion on the investigation of AI used in teaching reading comprehension. The use of artificial intelligence in reading comprehension classes in Indonesia offers significant benefits, including personalized learning, material accessibility, fast feedback, and increased student engagement. However, challenges such as lack of infrastructure, teacher training, and concerns about data privacy need to be addressed to maximize the potential of AI in education. Various successful implementation examples show that with the right support, AI can be an effective tool in improving students’ reading comprehension in Indonesia. Therefore, it is important for all stakeholders to collaborate in creating a learning environment that supports the use of this technology.

Abstract

In recent years antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has grown to become a massive concern for the global community due to their lack of successful prevention and low recovery rates. One of methods with high efficiency in reducing AMR is photodynamic and photothermal therapy (PDPT), due to their independency from chemical mechanism of antimicrobial efficacy. Mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN) is an excellent carrier for potential alternative for AMR including photosensitizers and natural based active ingredients. Herein, we explored the use of various sources as silica precursors as well as optimization based on method of fabrication and coating agent to stabilize and load the active ingredients. We additionally incorporated Uncaria gambir extract and phycocyanin to increase MSN antimicrobial effect and photosensitizing ability. Cogon grass-based MSN (CG-MSN) has yet to be explored extensively and in this research, we compared their characteristics to a more established precursors such as tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and sodium silicate. Based on the results obtained, cogon grass-based precursors produced the highest yield, with entrapment efficiency of Uncaria gambir and phycocyanin as high as 98%. Furthermore, CG-MSN produced one of the highest photothermal increase and adsorption rate comparable to that of TEOS. From in silico exploration Uncaria gambir contained Gambiriin and Roxburghin as two of the most active phytoconstituents that influenced its antimicrobial activity. Based on this research we were able to synthesize a new precursor of silica from natural based product, cogon grass, and incorporate it as carrier for phytocompounds in the management of AMR.
