Get PDFThis study aims to identify and analyze the accountability of BOS funds management in the aspects of planning, implementing, monitoring, and evaluating BOS funds at SMA/SMK school level in West Sumatra after the transfer of authority from the district / city government to the provincial government. Thus it is expected that potential problems can be clearly seen and then solutions can be given.The population in this study is a state SMA/SMK school that is under the authority of the government of West Sumatra. West Sumatra has 537 secondary education units consisting of 325 high schools and 212 vocational schools spread across 19 districts / cities. In this initial research, the researchers selected several public high schools / vocational schools in Padang and Bukittinggi as samples. Padang and Bukittinggi were chosen because they are big and advanced cities in terms of education. The selection criteria for SMA / SMK in this study are based on the categories of good, medium and bad schools in each region. Schools are meant for Padang: SMA 1, SMA 9, SMA 16 and SMK 9. For Bukittinggi: SMA 1, SMA 5, SMA 4 and SMK 1.From the results of this study it can be concluded that the transfer of authority accompanied by changes in grant expenditure into direct expenditure of BOS funds has changed the form of BOS funding accountability in public SMA/SMKin West Sumatra. The school did not object because this change encouraged better management of BOS funds in the future
Teachers Effective Teaching Strategies Viewed from Psychology Educational Perspective
Get PDFThe impact of the advanced age and the developing innovation can be noteworthy in early childhood brain research. Children of an early age tend to be more responsive to computerized situations that progressively rule lifestyle. In any case, disgraceful abuse of screens and computerized substances can result in rest disarranges, expanded levels of uneasiness, and trouble concentrating. Therefore, it is necessary to study psychological values as a predictor of successful education. To answer the research problem, this study employed a literature review from several experts related to the method of making scientific papers. The data was obtained from the results of scientific books and journals.

Induction Of Labour By Combined Methods Of Induction-Case Report
Get PDFThe timely onset of labor is an important determinant of perinatal outcome. Induction of labour or the artificial initiation of labour , is a common intervention in modern obstetrics. One of the most common reasons for labor induction is postterm pregnancy (i.e. > 41 weeks of gestation). Pregnant woman G3P2 applied to the TSMU The First University Clinic at 41 weeks, induction of labor was offered to her , by mechanical method – Foleys catheter after written consent. Before and after induction of labour by mechanical method, we evaluated uterine cervix by the same 3 points according to Bishop's scoring system. Since the pregnant woman did not have a regular uterine contractions, after this mechanical method, a medical method of labor induction was offered to her, with the drug Cytotec (misoprostol), to which the pregnant woman again gave her written consent. The specified dose was given 1 time, after which a regular labor was established every 10 minutes 3 times with a duration of 35-40 seconds. The cervix was evaluated according to Bishop's scoring system with 8 points, an amniotomy was performed and the woman gave birth in 5 hours, without complications, the newborn was evaluated with 7/8 points according to the Apgar scoring system. We suggest that Foley catheter in combination with oral misoprostol is an alternative way for induction of labor. The combination of this different methods of induction reduces labor duration, which provide good outcome

Risque Climatique et Sécurité Alimentaire dans le Bassin Versant de l’Okpara a l’Exutoire de Kaboua
Get PDFLa dépendance de l’Afrique subsaharienne aux incidences accrues des aléas climatiques extrêmes augmente les problèmes liés à la sécurité alimentaire face aux risques qui en découlent.La démarche méthodologique utilisée est basée sur la recherche documentaire et les travaux de terrain. L’analyse des données pluviométriques sur la série 1960-2022 à la Méteo-Bénin ont permis de déterminer les implications des risques climatiques sur le rendement agricole dans Le bassin versant de l’Okpara à l’exutoire de Kaboua.Il ressort de cette étude que les risques climatiques, ces soixantes dernières années dans Le bassin versant de l’Okpara, se manifestent par des séries de séquences sèches et séquences humide. L’absence de pluie supérieure à 50 mm et la diminution des fréquences de pluie comprise entre 0,1 et 10 mm lors de la grande saison des pluies occasionnent des années sèches. Cette variation des paramètres climatiques a des conséquences néfastes sur la production agricoles et par conséquent sur la sécurité alimentaire dans le bassin versant de l’Okpara à l’exutoire de Kaboua
Correlation Between The Initiated Tear Of A Fabric And Its Constituent Yarns
Get PDFThis article represents the relationship between the initiated tearing of a fabric and the yarns’s characteristics with which the fabric is made. There are several characteristics that were considered: the tensile strength of the yarns, the real metric number of the yarn, the elongation of the yarn, the kilometric resistance of the yarns and the hairiness index of the yarns. To better understanding this correlation, tests and experiments were carried out on the yarns and then during the making of the fabrics, we measured the initiated tearing of the fabrics. For a better appreciation of the results, a mathematical modeling of this correlation is presented in this work with possible precision errors which are expressed by the relative and absolute errors associated with each equation. The experiments carried out during the work were carried out with multitudes of yarns from different batches and origins
Performance Analysis of Subcarrier Index Modulation OFDM in a DWDM-FSO link
Get PDFFree Space Optics (FSO) is a wireless optical communication system using light to establish high-capacity links between points without the need for physical cables. However, its susceptibility to atmospheric conditions such as fog, rain, and turbulence presents challenges to signal quality maintenance. To address this, Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM), traditionally employed in fiber optics, is leveraged to optimize bandwidth utilization and scalability in high-capacity communications. The integration of DWDM into FSO systems offers redundancy and resilience against signal degradation induced by atmospheric conditions. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time a paper explores the performance of the Subcarrier Index Modulation Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (SIM-OFDM) technique within a DWDM-FSO system. The objective is to reinforce FSO link robustness and improve transmission rates. Through a comparative analysis with conventional OFDM in an Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel, the study reveals a notable Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) gain of at least 3dB with enhanced SIM-OFDM (ESIM-OFDM). Simulations, conducted with realistic parameters within the DWDM-FSO architecture, demonstrate that ESIM-OFDM modulation enables a transmission range of 2 km with an aggregated rate of 10.1 Gb/s. These results underscore the potential of SIM-OFDM in enhancing FSO system performance through the integration of DWDM technology. The proposed ESIM-OFDM DWDM-FSO scenario could represent a highly interesting solution for establishing 5G Backhaul links
