Abstract

The integration of digital technology in education has encouraged the development of innovative learning media, including Augmented Reality (AR)-based flipbooks in science learning. Unlike previous studies that primarily focused on student motivation and conceptual understanding, this research emphasizes the novelty of integrating AR flipbook technology specifically to develop students’ science process skills in science learning. The study aimed to examine the effectiveness of AR-based flipbooks in improving students’ science process skills and learning engagement in junior high school science classes, particularly on the topic of the human digestive system. This study employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group approach. The participants consisted of 64 eighth-grade students from a junior high school, divided into an experimental group (32 students) using AR-based flipbooks and a control group (32 students) using conventional learning media. The intervention was conducted over four weeks during science learning activities. Data were collected using science process skills tests, observation sheets, and student response questionnaires. The effectiveness of the media was analyzed using descriptive statistics, paired sample t-tests, independent sample t-tests, and effect size analysis. The results showed that the experimental group achieved a higher increase in science process skills compared to the control group. The average pretest score of the experimental group increased from 61.25 to 85.40 in the posttest, while the control group improved from 60.80 to 72.15. The N-gain score of the experimental group was 0.71 (high category), whereas the control group obtained 0.42 (moderate category). Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference between both groups (p < 0.05) with a large effect size (Cohen’s d = 0.87). Students in the experimental group also demonstrated better performance in observing, classifying, interpreting data, and communicating scientific findings. In addition, questionnaire results indicated that students showed higher motivation, active participation, and positive responses toward the use of AR-based flipbooks. In conclusion, AR-based flipbooks are effective and engaging learning media that significantly improve students’ science process skills and support active learning in science education. The integration of interactive AR features into science learning provides more meaningful and contextual learning experiences, making this media highly recommended for classroom implementation.

Abstract

Professional basketball players undergo high-intensity training that promotes cardiac adaptations. This literature review summarizes current evidence on electrical and structural cardiac remodeling in professional basketball players and explores implications for training and recovery. Structural changes, such as ventricular enlargement and atrial remodeling, are common in this population. Early repolarization patterns are frequently observed, reflecting advanced physiological adaptation rather than isolated abnormalities. Integrating cardiovascular screening with performance and recovery monitoring can help optimize individualized training strategies, improve recovery, and maintain athlete health. This synthesis provides practical insights for sports medicine professionals and coaches to enhance player performance while minimizing cardiac risk.

Abstract

Science learning outcomes among elementary school teacher education students are determined not only by mastery of content but also by psychological factors that influence engagement, persistence, and academic success. This study aimed to analyse the effects of academic self-efficacy, achievement motivation, and academic resilience on the science learning outcomes of students in the Elementary School Teacher Education Programme. The study employed a quantitative approach with a correlational survey design. The respondents comprised 136 students. Data were collected through a four-point Likert-scale questionnaire, with 16 items for each variable, and were then analysed using multiple linear regression. Instrument quality indicated that all items were valid and reliable, with Cronbach’s alpha values of 0.951 for academic self-efficacy, 0.953 for achievement motivation, 0.962 for academic resilience, and 0.979 for science learning outcomes. The findings showed that the three predictors simultaneously had a significant effect on science learning outcomes with R = 0.909, R² = 0.826, and F(3,132) = 209.460, p < 0.001. Partially, academic self-efficacy had a significant positive effect, academic resilience emerged as the most dominant predictor, whereas achievement motivation had no significant effect after being controlled together with the other variables. These findings underscore that improving the science learning outcomes of Elementary School Teacher Education students should focus on strengthening academic confidence and learning resilience through challenging, supportive, and sustainable learning experiences.

Abstract

Volcanic ash from Mount Semeru can alter soil characteristics, including the biological properties. Microorganisms respond rapidly to changing environmental conditions, leading to the general consideration as sensitive indicators of soil health. In general, biological fertility status can be determined based on the Biological Fertility Index (BFI). Therefore, this study aims to assess the BFI and total population of soil microorganisms following the Mount Semeru eruption across four differently managed land-use systems, including monoculture and intercropping patterns. Field studies were conducted on the slopes of Mount Semeru, specifically in Pronojiwo Village, Lumajang Regency, at an elevation of 400-800 meters above sea level. The classification of the BFI was carried out through laboratory analysis of Soil Organic Matter (SOM), Microbial Biomass Carbon (MBC) by the fumigation extraction technique, Basal Soil Respiration (BSR), and Cumulative Soil Respiration (CSR) over a 25-day observation period, along with the total microbial population assessed using the agar plate method. The mineralization quotient (qCO2) and metabolic quotient (qM) were also calculated based on parameter measured. The results showed that BFI scores of 16.28 and 18.19 were obtained for monoculture and polyculture systems with volcanic ash cover exceeding 10 cm, showing an “intermediate” fertility status. In contrast, monoculture and polyculture land covered with volcanic ash <2 cm had BFI scores of 20.03 and 21.03, respectively, in the "Good" category. The total microbial count ranged from a medium of 4.8 x 105 cfu g-1 in the monoculture sugarcane, to significantly higher levels in intercropping leeks and chili at 5.4 x 107 cfu g-1.

Abstract

The development of the palm sugar agroindustry plays a crucial role in boosting the productivity and income of palm farmers. However, most palm farming operations have not yet been integrated into the processing industry. As a result, they are unable to increase farmers’ income. This study aims to: (1) examine and analyze the existing conditions of the palm sugar agroindustry system, (2) describe the EFI and EFE matrix factors of the palm sugar agroindustry system, (3) generate policy recommendations related to the development strategy of the palm sugar agroindustry. This study utilized primary and secondary data. Primary data were collected from 20 palm farmers purposive sampling, while secondary data were obtained from relevant agencies, journals, and publications related to the research. The results of the study show that the total score from the EFI analysis is 3.449 (strong), while the total score from the EFE analysis is 2.027 (weak). Strategies to strengthen and enhance farmers’ business opportunities include maintaining product variety and specifications to reach broader markets, as well as leveraging advancements in transportation and information technology by actively utilizing social media. To turn weaknesses into opportunities, farmers must use advanced production tools, market products to new regions, and retain loyal customers. To mitigate threats, farmers need to strengthen their position by increasing product variety, offering affordable prices, and expanding transportation infrastructure to support production and marketing. To address weaknesses and threats, palm sugar farmers must prioritize product quality to ensure it aligns with consumer preferences.

Abstract

This study examines the spatial relationship between land use/land cover (LULC), volcanic hazard zones, and soil conditions in the Mount Bromo area of Probolinggo Regency, East Java, Indonesia. It aims to identify dominant LULC classes, quantify their overlap with volcanic hazard zones, and provide a spatial basis for risk-sensitive land-use planning. Sentinel-2 imagery was classified into four classes: vegetation, open land, agricultural land, and built-up area, and the results were evaluated using a confusion matrix. The classification achieved an overall accuracy of 81.97% and a kappa coefficient of 0.82, indicating reliable performance for regional-scale analysis. Agricultural land was the dominant class, covering 121,477.01 ha or 71.62% of the study area. Volcanic hazard zonation shows that 5,439.86 ha or 3.21% of Probolinggo Regency falls within Mount Bromo’s low-, moderate-, and high-hazard zones, including 941.66 ha or 0.56% in the high-hazard zone. Overlay analysis revealed that 212.39 ha of agricultural land and 16.33 ha of built-up area are located in the high-hazard zone, while 389.45 ha of agricultural land and 9.34 ha of built-up area remain in the moderate-hazard zone. Hazardous zones also spatially coincide with Mollic Andosols, indicating that volcanic risk overlaps with productive soils. These findings show that productive land and settlement-related land use are still not fully aligned with volcanic hazard conditions, highlighting the need for risk-sensitive spatial planning and adaptive land management.

Abstract

Cognitive decline is a common condition among older adults that may affect memory, attention, and functional independence. Non-pharmacological interventions, particularly activity-based approaches, are increasingly recommended to maintain cognitive function. Board game–based cognitive stimulation has emerged as a promising, engaging, and accessible intervention within occupational therapy practice. This study aimed to examine the effect of a modified board game–based cognitive stimulation program on cognitive function among community-dwelling older adults. This study employed a quantitative pre-experimental design using a one-group pretest–posttest approach. A total of 50 pre-elderly and older adults were recruited using purposive sampling based on predetermined inclusion criteria. Cognitive function was measured using the Indonesian version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA-Ina) before and after the intervention. The intervention consisted of a modified board game program conducted over eight sessions, each lasting 30–60 minutes, integrating cognitive tasks across multiple domains. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and paired sample t-test with a significance level of p < 0.05. The findings showed a statistically significant improvement in cognitive function after the intervention (p = 0.000, p < 0.05). Participants demonstrated increased scores across multiple cognitive domains following the modified board game–based cognitive stimulation program. The modified board game–based intervention was effective in improving cognitive function among community-dwelling older adults. This approach offers a practical, low-cost, and engaging strategy that can be implemented in community and occupational therapy settings to support cognitive health and functional independence in aging populations.

Abstract

Drought stress severely reduces plant productivity by disrupting photosynthesis and cellular homeostasis. Plants respond through regulatory networks involving stress-responsive genes, including heat shock proteins (HSPs), regulated by heat shock transcription factors (HSFs). Among these, HsfA2 plays an important role in abiotic stress tolerance, including drought. Although CaHsfA2 expression has been reported in Capsicum annuum, validated primers for quantitative PCR (qPCR) analysis remain limited. This study aimed to design and validate specific primers for CaHsfA2 expression analysis. Primer candidates were designed from sequence NM_001324561.1 using Primer-BLAST and evaluated based on length, GC content, melting temperature (Tm), and self-complementarity. Total RNA was extracted from chili roots subjected to drought stress (50% field capacity) and nanopriming with Padina minor, followed by cDNA synthesis, gradient PCR and agarose gel electrophoresis.. Secondary structures were analyzed using OligoAnalyzer. Of ten primer pairs, four met the criteria, and primer set 1 (1_CaHsfA2) showed optimal characteristics (%GC 55%, Tm 60°C, product length 190 bp) and minimal secondary structure potential (ΔG > −9 kcal/mol). Gradient PCR (55.3–59.2°C) produced a single band (~193 bp), consistent with the predicted size (190 bp), with an optimal annealing temperature of 57.3°C, confirming its specificity and suitability for qPCR-based gene expression analysis under drought conditions.
