IMPROVING THE ABILITY TO RECOGNIZE SYLLABLES USING THE MAHARAJA METHOD ASSISTED WITH FLASH CARD AND THE SNAKE AND LADDERS GAME IN BHINEKA KINDERGARTEN STUDENTS IN THE 2022/2023 ACADEMIC YEAR
Get PDFThe problem taken in this research is that students' ability to recognize and differentiate syllables is still low, so it needs to be improved using more effective strategic methods to stimulate students' enthusiasm and ability to recognize syllables. If we look at the learning method, it is felt that the Maharaja method is more appropriate to be applied in the activity of recognizing syllables in group B at Bhinneka Kindergarten because the children do not feel burdened with learning and do not separate their play activities. This type of research is classroom action research. Analysis of the research results shows that there was an increase in students' abilities in cycle 1, children's completion reached 58.3% and there was an increase in cycle II, increasing to 91.6% and only 1 student out of 12 students had not yet completed it. The use of the Maharaja method in this classroom action research based on student learning results was concluded to improve the ability to recognize syllables for Bhinneka Kindergarten students in Semarang. Â
Teachers’ perceptions of Information and Communication Technology (ICT): The Case of English Language Teaching (ELT) in Indonesia
No full textAbstract The trend of using ICT on English language teaching develop fast that influence in every part of teaching. Technology has had a powerful influence and is a transformative tool that can cause significant changes in human life, especially in education (Camilleri Camilleri, 2017). Accordingly, there is a need to investigate teachers’ value to the ICT in their teaching. The immediate object of heresiarch project is to explore teachers’ perception and how the perceptions shape teachers’ teaching practices.In this study, the researcher utilizes qualitative case study.This study recovers some ELT teaching at university regarding their experience and view of the ICT in their teaching practice. The qualitative case study had been implemented to explore the phenomenon and teachers experience in depth understanding through the unstructured interview. The findings show that teachers positively believe on existence of ICT would help the teaching and learning process. To support the success of teaching process, teachers’ professional development needs to be considered further for university and government. The unique finding was the cultural teaching dimension which occur on ICT integration in ELT. Some constraints are also found in integrating ICT on English language teaching.Another area for future educational practice is to have the depth consideration and to prepare both teachers and students with the proper technical skills and familiarise with any ICT devices used for teaching and learning process. Having the evaluation on the ICT support as well as teachers’ professional development is critical. If the teachers are expected to integrate ICT in English language teaching well, then it is crucial for supporting them in term of the guidance, training and facilities.This study contributes to the better understanding of the teachers’ perceptions of ICT in ELT, and the relation on how the perception can shape their teaching practice. Keywords :  English Language Teaching (ELT), Technology, Information and Communication Technology, Teachers’’ professional development  Â

Administration Response of Milkfish Rinsed Water on The Growth and Production of Celery (Apium graveolens L.)
No full textThis study aimed to determine growth and production responses of celery (Apium graveolens L.) after the administration of milkfish rinsed water. This study was perfomed in the Experimental Land, Faculty of Agriculture, Cokroaminoto University, Palopo on June – August, 2022. Experimental method used in this study was a completely randomized design, containing six treatments and four replications (24 experimental units). Treatments in this study contained several milkfish rinsed water administration doses, namely P0 = without rinsed water administration (control), P1 = 250 ml/polybag, P2 = 300 ml/polybag, P3 = 350 ml/polybag, P4 = 400 ml/polybag, and P5 = 450 ml/polybag. The results showed that the milkfish rinsed water administration significantly affect plant height, number of leaves, and number of buds, but obtaining no significant effect on wet weight. The best treatment was found in the P3 treatment with average plant height of 25.30 cm, 149.75 leaves, 6.75 buds, and 59.33 g wet weightÂ
Implementation of Two Stay Stray cooperative Learning (TSTS) to Improve Activity and Leraning Outcomes at SMP Negeri 12 Poleang, Indonesia
No full textPTSTS cooperative learning needs to be integrated with the teacher as a learning facilitator in terms of group guidance because it can increase student activity and learning outcomes. The purposes of this research are (1) to describe the implementation of Two Stay Two Stray (TSTS) learning combined with group coaching in increasing the activity and learning outcomes of students at SMP Negeri 12 Poleang Barat, and increasing the learning activity of students at SMP Negeri 12 Poleang Barat through learning Two Stay Two Stray (TSTS) combined with group guidance.This research is a classroom action research conducted in two cycles. Each cycle consists of planning, action implementation, action observation, and reflection stages. The data collected is student learning activeness and student learning outcomes. The data was obtained from the results of (1) observations of students' active learning by teachers and colleagues, and (2) written test scores at the end of the cycle.The results showed that (1) the average value of student learning activity increased from 59.67 in cycle I to 84.94 in cycle II, (2) the average student learning outcomes increased from 67.18 in cycle I to 81.32 in cycle II , (3) student learning mastery increased 54.84% in cycle I to 70.97% in cycle II.

The Effect of Centrifugation Time on Sexing Spermatozoa with Bovine Serum Albumin Media on the Morphology of X-Y Spermatozoa in Simmental Cattle
Get PDFSexing and centrifugation of spermatozoa is one way to improve the quality of spermatozoa. This study aimed to obtain the right centrifugation time for sexing spermatozoa with Bovine Serum Albumin media on the morphology of X-Y spermatozoa in Simmental cattle. This study was carried out from October 2021 to November 2021 at the Laboratory of Animal Reproduction and Health at the Breeding Center for Superior Livestock and Forage, Sembawa. The design used in this study was a completely randomized design (CRD) with 3 treatments and 4 replications. Centrifugation treatments for sexing spermatozoa with BSA media P1: centrifugation time 4 minutes, P2: centrifugation time 8 minutes, and P3: centrifugation time 12 minutes. The parameters observed were the morphology of the X and Y spermatozoa. The results showed that the centrifugation time for sexing spermatozoa—which was different with Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) media—indicates that the X spermatozoa abnormalities had no significant effect (P0.05) but the Y spermatozoa abnormalities had a significant effect (P0.05). The result of the right time use was in the P1 treatment with a centrifugation time of 4 minutes where the abnormalities value in the lower layer Y was 28.79%
