Enhancing elementary students\u27 motivation in IPAS through qreatif app-assisted deep learning approach
Science and Social Studies (IPAS) learning in elementary schools faces challenges regarding student engagement due to teacher-centered practices. This study aims to describe the implementation of Deep Learning assisted by the Qreatif application and analyze its impact on students\u27 learning motivation within the Merdeka Curriculum framework. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the study involved fourth-grade elementary students. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings demonstrate that the integration of the Qreatif application into the Deep Learning model significantly enhances students\u27 motivation, as evidenced by increased interest, active participation, and learning autonomy. The interactive visualization and explorative activities in Qreatif strengthen conceptual understanding and foster intrinsic motivation. These findings offer practical implications for developing technology-based learning that aligns with the principles of authentic and reflective pedagogy in the Merdeka Curriculum
Differences in Complete Blood Results and Nutritional Status of Patients with Cleft Lip and Palate at the CLP Center in University of Muhammadiyah Malang from 2020 to 2022
Background: Patients with Cleft Lip (CL) and Cleft Lip and Palate (CLP) have difficulties with eating and breastfeeding, which makes them more susceptible to malnutrition (measured using the z-score parameter) and infections. CLP is caused by inappropriate levator palatini muscles and velopharyngeal insufficiency, which can lead to infection, inflammation, and allergies that can affect the immune system. The immune system responds to these components with leukocytes, particularly neutrophils, eosinophils, and lymphocytes.
Objective: To determine the difference in complete blood results and nutritional status between cleft lip and cleft palate at the CLP Centre Faculty of Medicine, University of Muhammadiyah Malang in 2020-2022.
Methods: The research was conducted at the CLP Centre FK UMM using observational methods with a total sample size.
Results: The study found that males had a higher prevalence of CL and CLP. The most common z-score for patients with CL and CLP was below average for those under 24 months old, and above average for those over 35 months old. Extremely low z-scores were more common in CLP patients aged between 24 and 35 months. Patients with CL and CLP were less likely to have anemia, and there was no correlation between the z-score and anemia. Patients below 2 years old with CL and CLP had normal white blood cell counts, while those over 2 years old had higher levels of white blood cells, mainly neutrophils and lymphocytes. Eosinophilia, a condition with high levels of eosinophils, occurred only in patients with CL. Only lymphocytes showed statistically significant hematological values, with a p-value of 0.021 (p<0.05).
Conclusion: It has been found that patients with CL and CLP have a statistically significant difference in their lymphocyte cells. Most cases of nutritional status issues occur in children younger than 24 months with a normal z-score. In contrast, children aged 24-35 months with an inadequate z-score are more likely to have nutritional issues in cases of CLP

Hypothetical Learning Trajectory Using Straws to Teach Subtraction to Elementary School Students
This study developed a context-based Hypothetical Learning Trajectory (HLT) using straws as concrete manipulatives to support elementary students’ understanding of two-digit addition and subtraction. Employing a Design Research approach, the study consisted of an initial design, two cycles of teaching experiments, and a retrospective analysis. The HLT was constructed through sequential activities that guided students from concrete representations to symbolic reasoning related to place value, addition with and without carrying, and subtraction with and without borrowing. The findings indicate that straw-based manipulatives effectively supported students in developing the concept of regrouping, enhancing calculation accuracy, and strengthening conceptual understanding, particularly during carrying and borrowing processes. Across Activities A–D, the actual learning trajectory aligned with the hypothetical pathway, with notable benefits for students with lower initial abilities. Overall, the results confirm that bundling-based concrete media such as straws offer a meaningful and feasible instructional alternative for early-grade mathematics learning
Peran Kesbangpol dalam Mewujudkan Tata Kelola Kolaboratif Perlindungan Anak Korban Jaringan Terorisme Pasca Insiden Bom Kota Bandung 2022
Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis dan menguraikan proses kolaborasi yang dilakukan oleh Kesbangpol Kota Bandung dalam memberikan perlindungan kepada anak korban jaringan terorisme pasca insiden Bom Panci di Kota Bandung tahun 2022. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif. Adapun teknik pengumpulan data dalam penelitian ini mencakup, observasi, wawancara dan dokumentasi. Teknik analisis data yang digunakan adalah reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa bentuk kolaborasi yang dibangun masih bersifat prosedural dan belum mencapai tingkat integrasi kelembagaan yang ideal. Kolaborasi antar lembaga sering kali terjadi secara informal, terbatas pada koordinasi administratif, serta belum didukung oleh kerangka kerja yang mengikat dan berkelanjutan. Di sisi lain, analisis penanganan kasus peledakan bom bunuh diri di Astana anyar, dapat disimpulkan bahwa kolaborasi antar-pemangku kepentingan dalam pencegahan terorisme dan perlindungan anak korban masih menghadapi tantangan struktural dan operasional yang signifikan. Meskipun kerangka kebijakan seperti RAN PE dan RAD PE Jabar telah ada, implementasinya di tingkat Kota Bandung belum optimal
Computational Fluid Dynamics Software Based on the Artificial Compressibility Method
This study aims to develop a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software package based on the Artificial Compressibility Method (ACM) for solving incompressible fluid flow problems. CFD is a vital engineering tool that enables numerical simulation of fluid motion. The ACM, introduced to enhance computational efficiency, allows incompressible flows to be simulated similarly to compressible flows, resulting in faster and more stable numerical convergence. The Finite Volume Method (FVM) was employed to discretize the Navier–Stokes and continuity equations, incorporating an artificial compressibility term. The developed software was validated using two benchmark cases: lid-driven cavity flow and channel flow. In the lid-driven cavity flow test, simulations were conducted at Reynolds numbers (Re) of 100 and 3200, showing excellent agreement with benchmark data from Ghia et al. (1982). For the channel flow case, numerical results were compared with the analytical Hagen–Poiseuille solution for fully developed laminar flow, demonstrating strong consistency. The results indicate that the software accurately reproduces velocity profiles in both laminar and fully developed regimes, while also improving computational speed without compromising accuracy. This development broadens access to CFD technology for a wide range of engineering applications, enabling complex flow analyses with more efficient use of computational resources

The Relationship Between Duration of Working Hours and Neck Pain Disorders among Truck Drivers in Malang
Introduction: Truck drivers can be classified as workers who frequently move from one place to another or belong to a mobile population due to the nature of their occupation. Work as a truck driver exposes individuals to various risks or problems that may occur during travel, such as traffic accidents, vehicle breakdowns, traffic congestion, demands from middlemen or employers, and sanctions for traffic violations. However, prolonged sitting as part of daily work routines, especially when performed with improper posture, can have negative effects on health. One of these effects is the emergence of musculoskeletal complaints or disorders. The musculoskeletal system that is most vulnerable to such disorders is the neck region, which is commonly affected among workers. Movement disorders involving the intervertebral discs, ligaments, or joints may result in pain, discomfort in the neck area, and may even lead to disability. Neck pain caused by occupational factors is referred to as Work-Related Neck Pain (WRNP). Methods: This study employed a cross-sectional research design. The sample consisted of 34 participants. Data were collected using interviews and questionnaires. Data analysis was conducted using the chi-square test. Results: The results showed that 100% of truck drivers worked for more than 8 hours per day. The prevalence of neck pain was 44% within the 60–80% severity scale (crippled). The analysis of the relationship between daily sitting duration among truck drivers and neck pain revealed a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.005). Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between the duration of sitting while working as a truck driver and neck pain among truck drivers in Gondanglegi District, Malang Regency
The Relationship Between Language Development and Thoracic Mobility in Early Childhood Children in Malang
Background: Early childhood living in orphanages is a vulnerable group at risk of language development delays due to limited environmental stimulation. Language development, particularly expressive language, is related to speech activities that involve the respiratory system and chest wall movements. Limited speech activity is thought to affect the functional use of the respiratory system and thoracic mobility. This study aims to determine the relationship between language development and thoracic mobility in early childhood living in orphanages. Methods: This is a quantitative study with a cross-sectional design. Subjects were early childhood living in the Peduli Kasih KNDJH orphanage in Malang City and met the inclusion criteria. Language development was measured using the Preschool Language Scale-5 (PLS-5), while thoracic mobility was measured through thoracic expansion measurements. The statistical test used was the Chi-Square test. Results: The Chi-Square test results showed a value of Asymp. Sig. The 2-tailed test (2-tailed) was 0.014, lower than the significance value of 0.05 (0.014<0.05), indicating that language development is related to thoracic mobility in early childhood in orphanages. Conclusion: Children with normal to above-average language development tend to have normal to hyper-thoracic mobility, while children with below-average language development are more likely to experience thoracic hypomobility
