Karakteristik Batako Berlubang Menggunakan Bahan Tambahan Serat Eceng Gondok dengan Variasi Waktu Pematangan
No full textBatako merupakan bahan yang umum digunakan sebagai bahan pengganti kayu dengan batako ringan sebagai salah satu variasi yang ada. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk menguji campuran serat eceng gondok sebesar 3% pada komposisi pembuatan batako ringan dengan menggunakan variasi waktu pematangan 14, 21, dan 28 hari terhadap kualitas dan karakteristik batako yang dihasilkan sesuai dengan SNI 8640:2018. Penelitian dilakukan dengan menguji daya serap air, densitas, kuat lentur, dan kuat tekan batako yang telah dihasilkan. Daya serap air dan kuat tekan tertinggi adalah pada variasi 28 hari sebesar 14,98% dan 1,984 MPa, sedangkan kuat lentur terbesar pada variasi 21 hari sebesar 6,586 MPa. Densitas rata-rata batako sebesar 1,51 g/cm3. Batako yang dihasilkan memenuhi beberapa ketentuan seperti daya serap air dan kuat tekan pada kategori bata ringan non struktural. Sedangkan densitas batako masih melebihi kategori batako ringan. Oleh karenanya diperlukan variasi bentuk eceng gondok serta daya tekan yang lebih besar dalam proses pencetakan agar batako menjadi lebih padat dan baik kualitasnya

The Evolution of Journalism in the Digital Age: Analyzing the Impact of Social Media on News Process and Information Integrity
Get PDFThe development of information technology, especially social media, has dramatically changed the journalism landscape. This study aims to analyze changes in the work process of journalists and news distribution and their implications for information integrity. Using a qualitative case study methodology with a narrative analysis approach, this research collected data through in-depth interviews with journalists and content analysis of news reports published on social media. The results indicate a significant shift in news gathering, filtering, and presentation, where speed often precedes depth of analysis. This suggests that social media has caused a change from investigative journalism to instant journalism that emphasizes speed over depth. The findings highlight a decline in fact verification and an increased risk of spreading inaccurate information. Based on these results, this study recommends developing stricter ethical guidelines and training for journalists in handling the pressures of news distribution on social media, as well as implementing new technologies that can support real-time verification of facts to strengthen the integrity of information
Audience Engagement in Live Streaming: An Analysis of Gratifications Sought and Obtained in iShowSpeed's Live Stream in Indonesia
No full textThis study analyzes audience engagement in iShowSpeed’s live streaming in Indonesia using the Uses and Gratifications (U&G) theory. The focus is on comparing Gratifications Sought (GS), or the needs expected by the audience, with Gratifications Obtained (GO), or the satisfaction they experience. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining qualitative and quantitative analysis of viewer comments and the creator’s conversation transcripts. Comments were categorized into four U&G needs: entertainment, social interaction, personal identity, and information. Results show that entertainment and social interaction dominated, while information and personal identity, though less prominent, still contributed significantly. No gap was found between GS and GO, indicating that the creator’s interaction effectively fulfilled audience needs. This study reinforces the relevance of U&G theory and provides practical insights for content creators to design engaging experiences and build loyal audience communities.
