Abstract

The purpose of this study is to optimize junior high school biology learning through the EXAIR model, which integrates Brain-Based Learning and Whole Brain Teaching principles. The research employs a quasi-experimental design with pretest-posttest involving 106 students in Malang, Indonesia. Learning outcomes were assessed using multiple-choice tests to measure cognitive achievement and critical thinking skills. The ANCOVA analysis demonstrated a significant effect of the learning model on student learning outcomes (p < 0.05), with the experimental class outperforming both positive and negative control classes. The EXAIR model was proven effective in activating both hemispheres of the brain, fostering engagement, and enhancing critical thinking skills. However, limitations were observed during the auditory learning stage due to insufficient student interaction. This study underscores the importance of brain-balanced learning strategies to improve biology education outcomes.

Abstract

Increased fuel consumption of oil has an impact on the energy crisis. Biogasolin is an alternative fuel from vegetable oil that has the potential to overcome this problem. One of the methods used to produce biogasoline is the catalytic string method. Such methods generally use a catalyst to help speed up reactions. The use of catalysts in the cracking process is increasingly diverse. In this review article will compare the biogasoline percent value between several types of catalysts focused on zeolite and zeolite catalysts that are modified with metal, including the general picture of the arrest of the material, type and characteristics of the zeolite catalyst, operating conditions, and ways of performance of each catalyst. Zeolite catalyst which is a heterogeneous catalyst is considered to have good ability in selectivity, activity, and ease of modification so that it is very influential on the cracking results. Some zeolite catalysts modified with metals such as nimo/zeolite; Zn/HZSM-5; Cu/HZSM-5; Ni/HZSM-5; MO/HZSM-5; HZSM-5; PD/HZSM-5; PT/HZSM-5; Zn/Na-ZSM-5; Ni/ZSM-5; Ni/mnz; Co-NI/HZSM-5 and each biogasoline is obtained at 11.93%; 28.38%; 17.55%; 32-37%; 9-23%; 30.2%; 32-41%; 11.73% are reportedly able to provide performance to improve biogasoline results and certainly become a new catalyst that is useful in the scientific world

Abstract

The development of renewable energy technologies increasingly demands innovative, efficient, and environmentally friendly designs. Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWT) are among the promising energy conversion systems suitable for urban and marine applications. However, aerodynamic efficiency and environmental adaptability remain key challenges. In contrast, the anatomical structures of plants particularly leaves and stems have naturally evolved to optimize interactions with airflow and sunlight, making them a rich source of inspiration for technological innovation. This article presents an interdisciplinary literature review exploring how principles of plant anatomy can be integrated into VAWT blade design to enhance aerodynamic performance and energy conversion efficiency. Through a comprehensive analysis of literature from mechanical engineering and plant biology, this study identifies key anatomical features such as surface curvature, venation patterns, and epidermal textures as having direct relevance to drag reduction, turbulent flow regulation, and lift enhancement. This review aims to open new directions for bioinspired design approaches in wind turbine development and strengthen the collaboration between engineering and biological sciences in advancing sustainable energy technologies.
