No full textThe research at this time aims to analyze the ability of each student in the type of critical thinking by using a problem-based learning model supported by the firing line. The research method used is a quantitative research approach with a pretest-posttest research design of non-equivalent control group design. There are 31 students who are declared as the experimental class while for 31 students who will be the control class will be randomly selected. In this study using an instrument containing 12 essay questions. The final result of this study shows the paired-sample t-test analysis that the significance value (two-tailed) is 0.000, which is less than 0.05. In addition, the N-gain test displays the average of the N-gain for the experimental class which is 0.7490 can be categorized as "high", and for the control class N-gain which is 0.6522 can be categorized as "medium". Therefore, the conclusion from the explanation above is that there is an increase in students' critical thinking skills, namely the acceptance of the hypothesis when applying a problem-solving-based learning model with the help of the firing line in IPAS learning for grade 4th elementary school students, in other words, the hypothesis is accepted

A Holistic Needs Analysis for Developing Critical Reading Material to Enhance EFL Reading Proficiency
Get PDFThis study delves into the development of critical reading material for English as a Foreign Language (EFL) reading classes through a comprehensive need analysis. Employing the Four D model encompassing defining, designing, developing, and disseminating, the research process unfolded in distinct phases. The initial phase involved a preliminary investigation at the English Language Education Department of Muhammadiyah Purworejo University to discern students' challenges within real-time learning contexts. Subsequently, a prototype of the needs analysis was formulated based on the findings from the preliminary study. Validation of this needs analysis occurred through consultation with two experts and field testing to ascertain the questionnaire's efficacy. The validation process revealed a high feasibility rate (85%) in assessing students' needs. Additionally, a preliminary field test involving 30 students from the English Language Education Department at Muhammadiyah Purworejo University was conducted to evaluate the questionnaire's practicality. The outcomes of the needs analysis served as a foundational framework for the development of critical reading materials, subsequently utilized in EFL reading classes.

Accounting Knowledge, Job Market Considerations, Accounting Students' Career Interest in Public Accounting Field: Financial Rewards as A Moderating Variable
Get PDFThis research examines accounting knowledge, job market considerations, and accounting students' career interest in public accounting, with financial rewards as the moderating variable. The primary data was collected using questionnaires spread through Google Forms. The data is measured by using the Likert Scale. The research population consists of Bachelor of Accounting students from throughout Indonesia. Using purposive sampling, this research obtained 91 respondents as the sample. The regression method is used as the data analysis method, and SPSS 23 software is used. The research results indicate that accounting knowledge and job market considerations significantly positively influence accounting students' career interests as public accountants. Financial rewards weaken accounting knowledge on accounting students' career interest in public accounting. Meanwhile, financial rewards strengthen the positive and significant effect of job market considerations on accounting students' career interest in the public accounting field. This research suggests that universities with a prominent role in preparing high-quality accounting graduates are more responsive to changes in the world of work, so it is necessary to improve the quality of the curriculum. In addition, this research is also expected to be a reference for public accounting firms, as financial reward no longer becomes the first consideration for accounting students when choosing a career. Accounting firms must consider other factors when they recruit new employees, such as work-life balance and flexible hours
Aktivitas Antioksidan, Kadar Air, dan Sifat Sensoris Teh Susu Daun Binahong dengan Variasi Lama Pengeringan
Get PDFHerbal tea is a processed product of plant parts that do not come from tea leaves (Inti, 2008). One herbal tea is tea from binahong leaves. Binahong leaf tea contains flavonoids. Flavonoids have a role as antioxidants and antimicrobials. The flavonoid content has bitter and astringent properties which can affect the taste. Milk tea is an innovative tea with the addition of milk. Processing binahong leaves into milk tea aims to reduce the bitter and astringent taste. Milk tea has a savoury and sweet taste. The main objective of this research is to examine the effect of drying time on antioxidant activity, water content, and sensory properties of binahong leaf milk tea. The research method was experimental using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 6 treatments and 5 replications. The stages carried out are making binahong leaf tea, making binahong leaf powder tea, and making binahong leaf milk tea. Then analyzed the antioxidant activity, water content, and sensory properties (colour, taste, aroma). Variations in drying time (0, 180, 240, 300, 360, and 420 minutes). Based on the research results, show that variations in drying time affect antioxidant activity, water content, and sensory properties (colour and taste), but do not affect the aroma of binahong leaf milk tea. The best treatment was found to be a variation of drying time of 420 minutes with antioxidant activity values (52.84% RSA), water content (2.88%), and hedonic (3.23)
