Abstract

This study aims to describe mathematical communication between male and female students with low mathematical performance and to identify ways to support their mathematical communication skills. Students with mathematical abilities often struggle to express mathematical ideas clearly, making it important to explore their communication patterns and develop effective teaching strategies. A male and a female student from the twelfth grade of high school, were chosen as participants due to their low performance in mathematics. The selection of these subjects was based on the method of pairing data created by Milles. Data collection involved administering tests and using a semi-structured interview approach, which were then analyzed qualitatively. The results of this research indicated that there are differences in mathematical communication exhibited by male and female students. Both participants expressed mathematical concepts by identifying key points obtained from the test. They correctly used mathematical notation and adequately represented their ideas through graphical means. The male student showed a stronger grasp by connecting various concepts. However, there were instances when they struggled to articulate their thoughts accurately in writing. The results of this study provide insights for teachers in designing teaching strategies that improve low-achieving students' mathematical communication skills, both oral and written communication. This is expected to support students in expressing mathematical ideas effectively.

Abstract

Fodder is a high-yielding, space-efficient animal feed that can be harvested in a short period, making it crucial for sustainable livestock nutrition. However, improving both the growth and nutritional content of fodder remains a challenge. This study aimed to investigate the effects of liquid smoke application on the germination, growth, and nutritional quality of corn fodder. A Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was used, consisting of five treatments: seeds soaked in 0% (control, P0), 10% (P1), 20% (P2), 30% (P3), and 40% (P4) liquid smoke concentrations for 1 hour. The results showed that liquid smoke treatment did not significantly influence germination parameters, including Final Germination Percentage (FGP), Mean Germination Time (MGT), and Mean Germination Rate (MGR). However, significant effects were observed on growth indicators such as the number of leaves per sprout and dry weight. Furthermore, liquid smoke notably enhanced the crude protein and crude lipid content of the corn fodder, though it did not alter crude fiber levels.This study presents a novel approach to improving fodder quality using plant-derived smoke compounds, offering a simple, low-cost pre-treatment method for enhancing the nutritional profile of corn fodder. The findings imply that liquid smoke can serve as a natural biostimulant, potentially replacing or supplementing synthetic feed additives. Future research should explore the use of smoke water or direct plant-derived smoke under aerobic conditions to optimize germination and further boost fodder quality. These insights contribute to the development of more efficient and sustainable animal feed strategies.

Abstract

Academic writing skills are essential competencies for students to support academic success and scholarly publication; however, many students still struggle to produce publishable academic writing. This study aims to explore the use of an authentic learning approach as a strategy to help students complete academic writing assignments effectively. This study employs a descriptive-analytical approach, using systematic observation of variables. Thirty students who enrolled in the academic writing course of Universitas Terbuka (UT) were involved as respondents in this present study. The participants had to follow the systematic online learning sessions of the academic writing course. After completing the academic writing course, participants must be able to write a proper academic article for a related journal. The academic writing online course was designed and developed with the following nine principles of authentic learning: authentic context, authentic tasks and activities, access to expert performances, multiple roles and perspectives, supporting collaborative construction of knowledge, promoting reflection and articulation, providing coaching and scaffolding, and assessing the students' writing assignment. The results of the study indicated that students' scores increased after completing the authentic learning-based academic writing courses. The study recommends that an authentic learning approach is essential in an academic writing course, as it provides real learning experiences that help students complete the academic writing assignments.

Abstract

This study examines how meaning and moral equality are negotiated in the multimodal translation of bilingual digital storybooks used in Indonesian primary education. Based on the Multimodal Discourse Translation and Analysis Study, this study adopts a qualitative multimodal case study design that focuses on the bilingual digital storybook Putri dans Hutan. The study involved a textual analysis of bilingual translation units, a multimodal analysis of visual and auditory elements, and classroom-based data collected through observation and interviews with teachers and students. These findings reveal that moral equity in bilingual digital storybooks is not only achieved through verbal translation but emerges through the interaction of translation strategies, multimodal resources, and translanguaging practices in the classroom. Dynamic equality is identified as the dominant translation strategy, especially in the morally charged segment, as it prioritizes emotional accessibility and moral clarity for young learners. When linguistic simplification reduces moral explicitness, visual and auditory elements play a compensatory role by reinforcing emotional cues and moral orientation. Classroom translation further mediates moral understanding, allowing students to negotiate and internalize moral meaning by utilizing Indonesian and English. This study contributes to translation studies by extending the concept of equality into multimodal and pedagogical contexts. It also offers practical implications for educators, translators, and digital media designers by highlighting the importance of multimodal coherence and classroom mediation in conveying moral values through bilingual digital storybooks.

Abstract

Community Health Centers (Puskesmas) are crucial in promoting health and empowering communities to maintain their health independently. Despite their importance, health promotion programs have faced significant challenges, leading to suboptimal implementation. This study aims to analyze the implementation of health promotion programs at Puskesmas and identify the barriers faced by implementers. Qualitative research with a case study design was conducted at four Community Health Centers in Serdang Bedagai Regency from December 2021 to March 2022. In-depth interviews involved the heads of the Community Health Centers, the responsible individuals for health promotion programs at the centers, and community health cadres. A total of 12 participants underwent in-depth interviews to deeply explore information regarding policy aspects, funding, facilities, and human resources. Additionally, data were collected through observation and documentation. Data analysis followed the protocol developed by Miles and Huberman. The study results indicate that implementing health promotion at Community Health Centers has not been optimal due to barriers such as program funding availability, inadequate supporting facilities, and a shortage of competent human resources. This research contributes to the existing literature by providing a detailed examination of the specific challenges faced by Puskesmas in implementing health promotion programs. It emphasizes the need for targeted interventions to strengthen these centers' operational capabilities. To ensure optimal outcomes, stakeholders must focus on adequate budget allocation, the provision of supporting facilities, and training for program implementers.

Abstract

The growing popularity of AI, facilitated by digital technology, provides enormous possibilities for transforming English teaching techniques for teachers inside and outside the classroom. AI promotes the integration of traditional teaching methods with digital technology-based instruction, leading to greater enthusiasm among students in learning English. Online learning remains the essence of learning as a platform for sharing information and transmitting humanistic values; more importantly, it is defined as a place to transform knowledge completely. This study aimed to examine the proficiency and obstacles to acquiring ICT literacy skills and English learning autonomy for secondary school pupils in Indonesia. A survey was undertaken with 574 secondary school students in Ruteng City, Indonesia. The data was gathered through the use of questionnaires and interviews and subsequently examined using both quantitative and qualitative methods of analysis. The study findings indicate that respondents possess a moderate degree of ICT proficiency. Twenty statements were utilized to assess the ability of ICT literacy, whereas ten questions were employed to gauge English learning autonomy. The respondents’ knowledge of ICT satisfaction was hindered by six factors: lack of enthusiasm and ownership in digital media knowledge, absence of affordability for internet data assistance, lack of funds to utilize specific English-language apps, untrustworthy internet connection, and inadequate ICT infrastructure at schools. Several barriers hinder respondents from achieving ICT literacy. Schools should overcome these hurdles and transform challenges into opportunities to enhance students’ English learning and academic achievement.

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of gender diversity on target firms’ supervisory boards on merger and acquisition (M&A) decision-making in Indonesia, an emerging market characterized by concentrated ownership, weak shareholder protection, and the absence of gender quotas. While previous M&A studies have been viewed from the acquirer’s perspective, this study shifts the lens to the target firm’s governance structure, explicitly focusing on board gender composition. Drawing on resource dependence theory, agency theory, absorptive capacity theory, upper-echelons theory, and critical mass theory, this study aims to explain how board structure can affect a firm’s strategic outcomes. The investigation is conducted using robust regression on a comprehensive dataset of public companies in Indonesia that engaged in M&A activities between 2004 and 2022, spanning two crisis periods. The results show that larger supervisory boards are negatively associated with M&A activity, consistent with entrenchment concerns. Interestingly, although male-dominated boards tend to resist M&A attempts, females on the board, especially at the top, increase the likelihood of M&A. These findings contribute to the corporate governance literature by highlighting the strategic role of females on corporate boards in emerging markets, supporting the critical mass theory. The study shows that female leadership can influence high-level strategic decisions without regulatory mandates. These insights have practical implications for regulators and companies aiming to improve corporate governance effectiveness toward diversity rather than imposed quotas. Future studies could expand on these findings through cross-country comparisons and qualitative boardroom dynamics.

Abstract

In learning physic, students might experience learning difficulties that could hinder the knowledge transfer and the efficiency of the learning. It's caused by a limited number of instruments that are valid to measure students' learning difficulty in physical education. Therefore, the current research aims to validate physic learning difficulty scale for secondary school students in Indonesia. This research used a survey design. The current research participants were 388 students in Nusa Tenggara Barat, Indonesia. Two procedures were used to analyse the data: exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The results show that EFA with comprehensive techniques that compromise parallel analysis yielded a 3-factor solution: environment factor, metacognitive factor and emotional factor. The three factors solution was confirmed through CFA with the value: Chi Square=1.922, goodness of fit index (GFI)=.936, adjusted goodness of fit index (AGFI)=.913, Tucker–Lewis index (TLI)=.895, comparative fit index (CFI)=.913, root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA)=.049, and Standardized Root Mean Residual (SRMR)=.079. Therefore, based on psychometric analysis, the scale is valid and reliable to be used in measuring students physic learning difficulty of Indonesian secondary school students. The current research’s novelty is that it provides a valid and reliable instrument to measure student`s difficulty in physic education. The use of the current instrument can ensure the accuracy, reliability, and credibility of research related to student difficulty in physic education.

Abstract

HIV remains a pressing public health issue in Indonesia, with Jambi City showing a steady increase in cases, especially among high-risk groups. This study aims to estimate the prevalence of HIV in Jambi City and examine various factors related to HIV infection, including socio-economic conditions, individual behaviors, and family history. It also explores public knowledge about HIV prevention, along with treatment adherence and quality of life among people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). A cross-sectional study was conducted between August and September 2024 at four community health centers, involving 101 HIV-positive respondents who were undergoing antiretroviral therapy (ART). Data were collected through face-to-face interviews using validated questionnaires. The estimated HIV prevalence in Jambi City was 0.19%, based on average rates from the selected health centers. Among participants, 35.6% had low ART adherence, while 29.7% had high adherence. Better HIV prevention knowledge and fewer side effects were significantly associated with improved adherence. Additionally, having strong social support and being part of a peer-sharing community were linked to higher physical health-related quality of life. These findings highlight the need for more comprehensive HIV programs that not only focus on treatment but also strengthen education, manage treatment side effects, and build supportive community environments. This study offers a locally grounded perspective by combining prevalence estimates with psychosocial factors, providing useful input for targeted and sustainable intervention strategies in Jambi. The results may serve as a reference for health policymakers to design more integrated and context-appropriate HIV responses at the community level.

Abstract

The tourism sector has become a significant contributor to economic growth in various regions, including Tomohon City. The development of the tourism industry, especially the agrotourism sector, has become a trend favored by business actors. To take advantage of this trend, a mature strategy is very important to increase the growth and development of agrotourism in Tomohon City. This study aims to analyze the industry development strategy to encourage sustainable and environmentally friendly agrotourism growth. Quantitative methods based on SWOT analysis and the QSPM method as methods that allow objective evaluation of alternative strategies based on internal and external key success factors. The results of the research reviewed produced a concept for designing agrotourism development in the Agrotourism Area that prioritizes the arrangement and restoration of forest functions to maintain environmental sustainability. By implementing a community empowerment system in agrotourism locations, it will provide benefits to the surrounding community in line with the principles of sustainable tourism development. Its novelty value is by combining an environmentally based agrotourism development strategy by considering elements of local wisdom and the socio-cultural conditions of the community. Furthermore, it has implications for the development of interdisciplinary studies between strategic management, ecotourism, and environmental sustainability, and can be used as a model for similar research in other areas. The ecological implications of this strategy lead to the preservation of agrarian landscapes and local biodiversity, while reducing the pressure on the environment from uncontrolled mass tourism.
