Abstract

This study aims to 1) observe the morphology of P. moluccanum, 2) analyze the content of chemical compounds in P. moluccanum, and 3) determine Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) of P. moluccanum. The research was conducted in the form of morphology studies by conducting field studies, phytochemical compounds sample test by conducting sample preparation, chemical screening, and detection of aromatic compounds and quercetin, and remote sensing of Landsat 8.0 OLI satellite imagery. The results of morphological studies show that P. moluccanum have the same characteristics as plants in the literature, whereas the phytochemical test shows that P. moluccanum’s leaves and fruit contain flavonoids, tannins, saponins, steroids, and alkaloids. These compounds are known to have many functions for medicines. NIR analysis shows that leaf and fruit samples are detected to have aromatic compounds (essential oils) which are widely used as raw materials for fragrance oils or cosmetics. The results of remote sensing using NDVI in the Selo region, Boyolali produce a maximum vegetation index value of 0.464, meaning that the area has a high level of greenness, while the EVI used to see the level of health and fertility of plants in August 2018 shows the same figure, which is 0.464, meaning that the plant is in healthy condition. Remote sensing with satellite imagery helps analyze the distribution of sample plants in a large area. The results of this study can be used as a development of teaching materials both at junior and senior high school levels.

Abstract

Universitas PGRI Semarang has integrated character education into the fabric of its academic and non-academic activities. It has consciously set about creating a moral climate within university’s fourth pillar of Catur Dharma/ Modeling. Dynamic monitoring and evaluation system for character education is impetus in order to adequately meet the demands of recommended core values: personal and social awareness, self-management, and social skill.Though its slogan and core values are in the domain of character education, its monitoring, evaluation, and assessment have not integrated one and another yet.Thus, it is pertinent to conduct a research for desiging an effective model of monitoring and evaluation of character education.The study used three stages of R D research method: desiging, revising,and field testing. Expert validation scores had gained 83.35 % while professional validation was 84.5%. It means the model both theoretically and practically is appropriate for evaluation of characters education. The results indicated that to be fully effective and ongoing of the program, integrated monitoring, measuring, and assessing system should be in conjunction with monitoring evaluation design, its implementation as well as its instruments. The study recommends the university and other institutions have to transfer this conceptual model into an implementation model in which character education functions harmonically and in a coordinated manner to provide effective and efficient results.
