Abstract

The partner in implementing this PKM (Community service) is the Sekar Pasti Wangi Livestock Group located in Banjar Seminyak Petiga Village, Marga District, Tabanan Regency. This group raises 20 cows with 19 members. Partners have problems not having information about superior types of animal feed forage, understanding and skills regarding feed forage cultivation technology and how to feed livestock. With this understanding and skills, it will be able to increase the nutritional content contained in the feed both in quality and quantity which has an impact on increasing livestock production. The goal to be achieved is to provide an understanding of nutrition in applying forage cultivation technology as animal feed that can take place evenly throughout the year. The Sekar Pasti Wangi Livestock Farmer Group already knows some superior forage, mastering its cultivation technology, ration formulation and understanding and understanding the nutritional needs of cows. Mastery of technology is almost 80%, so it is necessary to provide assistance again to the group at the time of the first, second slaughter and forage treatment of feed and serving techniques so that forage remains of good quality. From the community partnership program that we carry out, it can be concluded that partners know the types of feed forage by 80%. In addition, there is an increase in livestock productivity of 0.3-0.4 kg / head / day can be seen from the growth performance, so it is expected that partner income will increase.

Abstract

The partner in implementing this community service program (PKM) is the Farmer Group located in Sanur Kauh Village, South Denpasar District, Denpasar. The group is cultivating organic plants by utilizing organic waste such as dry leaves, household waste, canangg residues (waste from Hindus Bali ritual events) , and cow and chicken manure. The group does not yet know how to properly process organic waste to produce good organic fertilizer. During this time, the garbage is just piled up just like that, and let the decomposer process takes place naturally. The group also does not know the proper composition of organic waste so as to produce a complete organic fertilizer containing NPK nutrients. The method that will be carried out in the implementation of this training is by interviewing, face-to-face methods, counseling and direct practice, Gradually the activity will be carried out: First, we will hold counseling on the use of local microorganisms as organic fertilizers. Second, we will provide direct training on the use of local microorganism (MOL), carried out several evaluations The third time, if the PKM activity will end we will motivate farmers so that in growing vegetables such as lettuce, kale, green vegetables and long beans by applying the use of MOL as organic fertilizer. From this activity, the external target to be achieved is that training participants understand how to use MOL as organic fertilizer to get healthy organic vegetables. The women's farmer group was able to make MOL which was used as a physically quality liquid organic fertilizer. Partners by 70% understand and can apply liquid organic fertilizer from household waste. Partners were able to reduce production costs by 25%, partners were able to reduce organic waste that causes environmental pollution by 80%, and partners were able to increase crop production by 25% thereby increasing group profits

Abstract

Contextualization, localization, and indigenization have touched the ground of the dominant cultural character of learners. The teaching and learning process in the K to 12 curricula has integrated its essence. However, in recent ages,s the border-crossing of digital culture among learners was prevalent in their attitudes and learning preferences. Cognitive preferences such as the students’ brain dominance must be considered in the lesson planning as an additional option. With a transformative worldview through an action research design, the study evoked the effects of Mathematics Engagement Clinic (MEC) grounded on brain dominance or the whole brain theory to critical thinking and problem-solving skills, and mathematics achievement. MEC has different effects on the left and right brain dominant participants in terms of their thinking processes such as critical thinking and problem-solving skills. In particular, left brain dominant participants have a distinct behavioral cognition which the researcher called affirmation behavioral learning. The implication of affirmation behavioral learning to the whole brain theory was a notion that brain dominance groups might have specific behavioral cognition. As for this study, affirmation behavioral learning was evident and observed among left-brain dominant participants. As affirmed by the quantitative results, the enhancement program Mathematics Engagement Clinic (MEC) grounded on the whole brain theory or brain dominance can hone thinking processes such as critical thinking and problem-solving skills, and thereby, improve mathematics achievement. Despite the abnormality distribution of participants in the study MEC has managed to cater to the participants’ preferences. With the positive effect of the enhancement program, MEC grounded on brain dominance on the thinking processes and mathematics achievement of the participants, the researcher has constructed a modular mathematics enhancement program framework as a guide to researchers, and other interested parties in the planning, designing, redesigning and implementing modular mathematics enhancement programs grounded on brain dominance to hone and enhance thinking processes such as critical thinking and problem-solving skills, and thereby, improve mathematics achievement.

Abstract

When the COVID-19 pandemic broke out in our country, the education sector explored the availability of technologies that might be helpful to ensure the delivery of quality education to learners despite the sudden shift in learning modality, that is, from face-to-face to blended learning. The Sulong Edukalidad, a move of the Department of Education to innovate Philippine Education under COVID-19 provided online training and webinars that prepared Filipino teachers in facing the new normal of the education setting. One of which is the utilization of the e-book Kotobee Readers as an interactive learning tool. E-books are one of the many software programs being developed to enhance teaching in the field of education. E-books are publications that can give students information and instructions in the form of multimedia flexibly and efficiently, thereby supporting and improving learning. In this regard, our team aims to explore the potential of the utilization of the e-book Kotobee reader as an interactive learning tool for developing 8th Grade Mathematical skills during the Covid-19 pandemic, focusing on the average percentage of the participants before and after the utilization of the e-book, their level of performance during the utilization of the said learning material, the challenges encountered by the participants and also identifying the positive traits of Kotobee that helped the students learn. The research design to be used for this research will be a quasi-experimental approach. This research design is intended for an interventional study used to estimate the impact of an interactive–based lesson using the Kotobee e-book on the Grade 8 students in developing their mathematical skills The participants involved in this research are the selected Grade 8 – Rose learners in Mataas na Paaralang Neptali A. Gonzales Our team implemented a series of interventions about topics in Quarter III which the lectures and activities can be found in the said e- book. Students’ usage of the Kotobee e-book app daily was tracked in an Inquiry report. Students’ scores in each activity will be tallied at the end of each quarter for assessment. This will assist us in determining how well the students performed after they have used the Kotobee e-book. A separate learning activity sheet (LAS), validated by the Master Teacher in charge of JHS Mathematics, was administered weekly to be able to validate the performance of the learners for a specific topic taught while using the e-Book. At the end of the Quarter, a post-test was administered to be able to determine the performance of the students. Data collected showed that using the Kotobee e-book, it has affected how well the participants do in Mathematics 8 Quarter III, as shown by the significant difference between the mean percentage scores on the pre-test and the mean percentage scores on the summative test. Students learn while using the Kotobee e-book, based on the results of their weekly assessments and their quarterly test.

Abstract

Student participation has received a lot of attention in recent decades as a result of moves toward student-centeredness, as well as promising research that suggests a link between student engagement and academic success. The researchers wanted to see how computer-generated software/applications influenced the academic performance of senior high school students. The randomized Pretest-Posttest control group design was used in this study. This study included only 40 students in Grade 11. The cover of the lesson depicts science, and the materials used are computers and cellphones, with Appgeyser serving as the application that the lessons were integrated into. The games were sent to students studying science in grade 11-Life Science and installed on their cellphones by the researchers. Giving a Pre-Test before the lesson and a Post-Test after the lesson was one of the strategies used in this study for each class. For groups 1, the lesson was delivered in a modular format using technology such as a cell phone and a computer application. Based on the data gathered, the researchers concluded that students who used mobile games performed better during the post-test than students who used SLMs. The MASIPAG mobile game was also more effective in teaching life science when compared to modular learning. The use of mobile phone games versus the use of SLMs during pandemic education was found to be significantly different in post-test results. The researcher recommended that teachers use a variety of computer applications in their classrooms based on the findings and conclusions of the study. More strategies for engaging teaching-learning situations should be developed.

ABSTRACT Biodiversitas ikan-ikan air tawar lokal asli Indonesia sangat berlimpah namun belum banyak dimanfaatkan dalam budidaya. Pemanfaatan secara langsung masih dalam taraf penangkapan di alam yang dikhawatirkan dapat membahayakan populasinya di alam. Salah satu alternative untuk pencegahannya adalah dengan upaya meningkatkan budidaya dan mengurangi penangkapa The biodiversity of local freshwater fish native to Indonesia is very abundant but has not been widely used in aquaculture. Direct use is still within the level of capture in nature which is feared to endanger its population in nature. One alternative to prevention is to increase cultivation and reduce overfishing. Before carrying out fish farming first in domestication so that the fish are accustomed to living in a controlled environment. Feeding habits and growth Nyalian fish eat feed that floats or does not immediately sink to the bottom of the waters. It also corresponds to the position of his mouth looking up obliquely and his habits of life on the surface of the waters. The sampling method is Nyalian fish samples collected at two locations and data analysis on this research using SPSS. The growth of Rasbora lateristriata fish during domestication showed significant results, namely the absolute growth of the calculated t-test value of 16.948 with a significance level of 0.000. The growth of the total length with a calculated t-test value of 14.091 with a significance level of 0.000. Weight growth with a calculated t-test value of 9.045 with a significance level of 0.000. The relationship between length and weight shows significant results where the increase in standard length will be followed by weight growth. Water quality during the study, namely pH, DO and temperature is still following the life of Italian fish. The results of the study show that Nyalian fish can adapt to the artificial environment n yang berlebihan. Sebelum melakukan budidaya ikan terlebih dahulu di domestikasi agar ikan terbiasa hidup dilingkungan terkontrol. Kebiasaan makan dan pertumbuhan Ikan Nyalian memakan pakan yang terapung atau tidak langsung tenggelam ke dasar perairan. Hal itu juga sesuai dengan kedudukan mulutnya yang menengadah miring ke atas dan kebiasaan hidupnya di bagian permukaan perairan. Metode pengambilan sampel adalah Sampel ikan Nyalian dikoleksi pada dua lokasi dan Analisis data pada menelitian ini menggunakan SPSS.Pertumbuhan ikan Rasbora lateristriata selama domestikasi menunjukkan hasil yang signifikan yaitu pertumbuhan mutlak nilai uji t hitung sebesar 16,948 dengan tingkat signifikansi sebesar 0,000.
