Analysis of English-Indonesian Translation Based on Students Perception
Translation plays a significant role in language learning, particularly in helping students understand texts in a foreign language. This study analyses students’ perceptions of English-to-Indonesian translation within the context of language education. Using a quantitative approach, the research involved 30 fourth-semester students from an English Education program at a private university in Indonesia. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics. The results indicate that most students find translation to be a helpful strategy for improving comprehension, vocabulary acquisition, and overall language skills. However, they also encounter difficulties, such as interpreting idiomatic expressions, understanding grammatical structures, and relying too heavily on digital translation tools. The study underscores the importance of incorporating translation practices into language learning and suggests implementing guided translation activities and proper technological support to enhance students' translation skills. The findings can assist educators in designing more effective teaching strategies for translation-based learning

PENGARUH JENIS BAHAN PENYALUT TERHADAP EFISIENSI ENKAPSULASI DAN SIFAT FISIKOKIMIA EKSTRAK MEDINILLA SPECIOSA DENGAN TEKNIK FOAM MAT DRYING
This study aimed to examine the effect of various coating materials on the encapsulation efficiency and physicochemical characteristics of Medinilla speciosa (parijoto) fruit extract powder dried using the foam mat drying method. Parijoto extract was encapsulated using three coating materials, namely maltodextrin (MDE), gum arabic (ABG), and whey protein isolate (WPI), either singly or in combination. The parameters analyzed included anthocyanin encapsulation efficiency, total anthocyanin content, phenolic and flavonoid compounds, antioxidant activity, water content, water activity, pH value, solubility, and product yield. The results showed that the ABG:WPI combination formulation produced the highest encapsulation efficiency (33.58%) and higher bioactive compound content and antioxidant activity compared to other formulations. MDE coating significantly contributed to increasing yield, solubility, and decreasing water content and water activity. The combination of coating materials was proven to produce a positive synergy in maintaining the stability of bioactive components while improving the physical characteristics of the final product. This study indicates that the combination of ABG and WPI is the optimal coating formulation for the encapsulation application of bioactive compounds from parijoto fruit in the development of powder-based functional food product
