Abstract

The study analyses the impact of Current Ratio, Net Profit Margin, and Debt to Equity Ratio on the change in profits on companies in the technology sector listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange. (BEI). Annual financial data of a number of companies were taken for the last few years, namely 2020-2022, and analyzed using regression methods. The results show that Current Ratio and Net Profit Margin have a significant positive relationship to profit changes, suggesting that the company's ability to manage liquidity and operational efficiency contribute to profit performance. On the contrary, Debt to Equity Ratio shows an uninfluential and significant relationship, indicating that the corporate debt level can influence profit changes. The implications of these findings can help financial managers and investors to make more informed decisions in managing risk and improving corporate financial performance in Indonesian capital markets.

Abstract

This study explores the critical role of location proximity in the decision-making process of prospective students when selecting higher education institutions. Drawing upon Aristotle's persuasive theories, the research aims to craft effective promotional content that leverages the significance of location proximity in attracting students to colleges and universities. Through a mixed-methods approach, including quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews, the study investigates the extent to which location proximity influences students' decisions and develops persuasive messages based on ethos, pathos, and logos theories. Findings indicate that proximity to home significantly influences students' choices, driven by factors such as convenience, accessibility, and cost-effectiveness. By recognizing and addressing the importance of location proximity, educational institutions can enhance their recruitment strategies, bolster competitiveness, and contribute to student success. This research underscores the need for institutions to tailor offerings and promotional strategies to resonate with prospective students effectively, emphasizing the benefits of attending a nearby institution.

Abstract

Employee performance in the workplace is evaluated based on achieving objectives and the level of success an individual attains, with satisfactory performance indicated by goal completion. Various factors within the organization, such as technical abilities, interpersonal skills, and professional background, can influence performance. This research aims to evaluate the individual and collective impacts of technical abilities, interpersonal skills, and professional background on employee performance. The study employed quantitative research methods, focusing on PT Langkat Nusantara Kepong in Padang Brahrang Regency of Langkat, with a sample size of 85 selected through probability sampling. Data were gathered using a Likert scale questionnaire and analyzed through instrument testing, assessment of classical assumptions, multiple linear regression analysis, and hypothesis testing using MS Excel and SPSS version 25. Results indicate that technical abilities, interpersonal skills, and professional background significantly and positively affect employee performance both individually and collectively. The coefficient of determination test reveals a strong correlation between these variables, with an R value of 0.982. Furthermore, the Adjusted R Square value suggests that technical abilities, interpersonal skills, and professional background collectively contribute to 96.4% of employee performance, with the remaining 3.6% attributed to unexamined external factors.

Abstract

Various efforts have been made to develop innovative entrepreneurship learning models. Universitas Nahdlatul Ulama Surabaya (Unusa) claims to have implemented Islamic self-identity entrepreneurship learning. This research aims to uncover the essence of Islamic self-identity entrepreneurship learning and its process. The study utilizes entrepreneurship learning theory and Islamic economic principles to analyze the findings, supported by general learning theory and Islamic entrepreneurship concepts. The research finds that the concept of Islamic self-identity entrepreneurship learning at Unusa fundamentally serves as coursework oriented towards Ilahiyah economics and Islamic economic principles (tauhid, khalifah, and ‘adl). The Islamic self-identity entrepreneurship learning process at Unusa is carried out through five phases: planning, theory delivery, learning practice, business implementation, and ongoing evaluation.

Abstract

Cholesterol in the body is divided into three parts, namely Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) and Triglycerides. Excessive cholesterol in the blood can cause hypercholesterolemia. The Simargaolgaol plant (Aglaonema modestum Schott ex Engl) is one of the plants that people use as traditional medicine to cure various types of diseases. This study aims to analyze the effect of administering simargaolgaol leaf extract on reducing cholesterol levels in male Wistar rats fed a high-fat diet. This study used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) consisting of 6 groups, namely K0+ (Normal Group), K0- (Negative Control), K+ (Positive Control given simvastatin), varying doses 100 mg/KgBW, 200 mg/KgBW, 300mg/KgBW. The data obtained was analyzed using One way Anova statistical analysis with SPSS for Windows software. The data that has been analyzed has a significant value of p<0.05, which means that administration of ethanol extract of simargaolgaol leaves (Aglaonema modestum Schott ex Engl) shows an effect on reducing cholesterol in the blood. The conclusion of this research is that the ethanol extract of simargaolgaol (Aglaonema modestum Schott ex Engl) leaves has anti-cholesterol activity at a minimum dose of 300 mg/KgBW.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the effect of the Time Token learning model on the ability to write poetry texts in class X of SMA Swasta Al Washliyah Pasar Senen for the 2023/2024 academic year. The population and sample in this study were all students of class X IPA IPS, totaling 24 students with the Time Token model. This research uses a one group pretest-posttest design experimental method using a quantitative approach. The instruments used in this research are the building blocks of writing poetry texts which consist of diction, theme, rhyme/rhythm, figurative language (figure of speech), and message. The data analysis techniques used are analysis requirements tests, normality tests, and hypothesis tests. The research results before using the Time Token model were 62.8 and classified as sufficient. Meanwhile, the research results after using the Time Token model were 73 and classified as good. Based on the results of the hypothesis test, it was found that tcount > ttable, namely 0.0107 > 0.337, so the hypothesis (Ho) was rejected and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted. This proves that there is a significant influence of using the Time Token model on the ability to write poetry in class X SMA Swasta Al Washliyah Pasar Senen Tahun Ajaran 2023/2024.

Abstract

The aim of this research is to find out how the Problem Based Learning and Discovery Learning learning models differ on student learning outcomes on chemical bonding material.. From the results obtained, namely tcount>t table (5.63<1.66). From the results of the average posttest score compared with the average KKM score for chemistry subjects, there is a significant influence of the Problem Based Learning learning model on student learning outcomes in chemical bonding material, namely (87.5 > 75), and there is also a significant influence Discovery Learning learning model on student learning outcomes in chemical bonding material, namely (81.29>75). And based on the posttest scores, namely (87.5> 81.29), the learning outcomes of students in the Problem Based Learning learning model on chemical bonding material were higher than the learning outcomes of Discovery Learning on chemical bonding material.
