Abstract

Improving cognitive abilities, namely learning outcomes is one of the objectives of learning. Learning outcomes can be improved through the use of creative, innovative learning models in accordance with the current curriculum, the 2013 revised curriculum. This study aims to determine whether there is an increase in Physics Chemistry Learning Outcomes 1 through the Project-based Learning (PjBL) Learning Model using Quizizz online learning media. Based on the results of the normality and homogeneity test, the data is normally distributed with the value of the normality test result of 0.638 (sig 0.05) and homogeneous with the homogeneity test result value of 0.144 (sig 0.05). The results of statistical analysis of research data using the paired t-test hypothesis test results obtained tcount = 17,685 (sig 0.00) and ttable = 0.684 (sig 0.05), it is concluded that there is an increase in learning outcomes in Physics Chemistry 1 through the Project-based Learning (PjBL) learning model using Quizizz online learning media because tcount˃ ttable. A further test is the gain test, to determine the level of improvement in learning outcomes. The results of the analysis using the gain test, the gain value of 42.51%, with the medium category.

Abstract

Cocoa beans husk is waste produced from the cocoa processing industry containing alkaloid, flavonoid, tannin, saponin, and triterpenoid compounds. This material has the potential to be used as a source of natural antioxidant compounds. This study aimed to determine the antioxidant activity of cacao beans husk extracts by comparing acetone and ethanol as solvents through the extraction process. This antioxidant activity was determined using the DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) test method measured by UV-Vis spectrophotometer after adding an extract of cocoa beans husk. The positive control was vitamin C, while the negative control was DPPH solution dissolved in ethanol. The results showed that the extract of cacao beans husk has more potent antioxidant activity with a lower IC50 value of 181.2 ppm, while the acetone extract has an IC50 value of 247.9 ppm

Abstract

Milkfish (Chanos chanos) is famous for Indonesian and has high economic value. Milkfish bone can be processed into flour. A milkfish bone sample was obtained from the Sioyong Market in Dampelas, Donggala. The purpose of this study was to determine the calcium (Ca) levels in milkfish bone using atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS). The sample preparation method used dry destruction with sample ignition. The results showed that the average calcium levels in the flesh and head bones of milkfish aged two months were 0.052 ± 0.0007% and 0.132 ± 0.0056%, while those at aged five months milkfish were 0.197 ± 0.0014% and 0.138 ± 0 0007%, respectively. This study concludes that the older the age of milkfish is, the higher the calcium levels in the bones.

Abstract

This study aimed to describe the difference between students’ learning outcomes from the class using the cooperative learning model of think pair share (TPS) type and teams games tournament (TGT) type on the topic of reaction equation in class X at MAN 2 Model Palu. This study was a pre-experiment with the static group pretest-postest design. This study was conducted in two groups i.e., class XA as experiment group 1 (n = 24) and Class XB as experiment group 2 (n = 23). Data of students’ learning outcomes were analyzed using t-test two-party statistical analysis with the prerequisite of normality and homogeneity tests of the data from the given posttest. The analysis results obtained the average score of experimental class 1 (1X) was 68.25, while the average score of the control class (2X) was 63.15. The hypothesis test results obtained tcount = 2.47 and ttable = 2.02 with significance level = 0.05 and degrees of freedom 45, then H0 was rejected, and Ha was accepted. Based on these results, it can be concluded that students’ learning outcomes from the class using the cooperative learning model of think pair share (TPS) type is different from the class using cooperative learning model of teams games tournament (TGT) type on the topic of reaction equation in the Class X at MAN 2 Model Palu. Students' learning outcomes in experimental class 1 were higher than in experimental class 2.

Abstract

Tin fruit is an essential source of bioactive components such as phenol, benzaldehyde, and flavonoids due to the antioxidant properties. Analysis of flavonoid levels on Tin (Ficus carica Linn) fruit was carried out using Uv-Vis spectrophotometry. This study aimed to determine the total flavonoid levels found in Tin (Ficus carica Linn) fruit with a variety of samples of raw, half-ripe, and riped. Extraction of chemical content in Tin (Ficus carica Linn) was carried out by maceration method with ethanol 70%. Total flavonoid levels of the extracts sample were determined through absorption measurements at a wavelength of 520 nm and 700 nm. The results showed that total flavonoid levels in raw, half-ripe, and ripe fruits are 5.778 × 103, 3.056 × 103, and 3.707 × 103 mg/L, respectively, or equivalent to 17334 × 103, 9.168 × 103, and 11.121 × 103 mg/100g, respectively.
