An Analysis of Idiomatic Expression In Voice Lines Heroes in Dota 2 Video Game
This research analyzes idiomatic expressions in the voice lines of heroes in the video game Dota 2, using Charles Hockett's theory. This research highlights the potential of video games as an effective tool for language learning, offering native English speakers an authentic context to understand and internalize idiomatic expressions. Through qualitative analysis, 50 idiomatic expressions were identified and classified into six categories: Substitutes, Proper Names, Abbreviations, English Phrase Compounds, Allusions, and Slang. Specifically, Substitutes accounted for 8 idioms, Proper Names for 12 idioms, English Phrasal Compounds for 7 idioms, Figures of Speech for 14 idioms, and Slang for 9 idioms, with no examples of Abbreviations. Each idiom's contextual meaning is analyzed, thus contributing to a deeper understanding of their function in the game.

This study recommends using this media to support more effective, innovative, and relevant education in the era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0. For future research, it is recommended to expand the scope of implementation in other courses to increase its validity and benefits
The Role of Parents in Providing Nutritious Food to Prevent Stunting in Early Childhood
This study explores the role of parents in providing nutritious food to prevent stunting in early childhood. Stunting, a condition caused by chronic malnutrition, affects children's growth, cognitive development, and overall health. Using a literature review method, this research analyzes findings from various scholarly sources to examine parental involvement in ensuring a balanced diet. The results highlight that parents, especially mothers, play a crucial role as educators, facilitators, and role models in children's nutrition. Providing a balanced diet rich in carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals, as well as promoting healthy eating habits, is essential in preventing stunting. Additionally, parents should actively monitor children's growth through posyandu (community health services) and engage in nutrition education programs. The study concludes that strong parental awareness and commitment significantly contribute to reducing stunting rates. Future research should focus on effective interventions and policies to enhance parental participation in early childhood nutrition

RANCANG BANGUN SISTEM OTOMASI PADA RUMAH KACA TANAMAN HIDROPONIK BERBASIS MIKROKONTROLLER ESP 8266
Currently, the activity of gardening has developed rapidly from the past to the present. However, we do not have much land in urban areas due to the increasing population. Consequently, the yield of vegetable crops has decreased, and thus, we need to adapt to the changing times. At present, we have modern gardening techniques using water and limited land, such as Hydroponic cultivation. The purpose of this research is to design and build an automated system to care for Hydroponic plants, including maintaining pH and nutrient levels according to the required standards. The method used is qualitative, where the testing of the device is conducted. The design and construction of an automatic irrigation control system and IoT-based monitoring using NodeMCU 8266, pH sensor, TDS sensor, temperature sensor, and humidity sensor are implemented. This tool was created as a solution to maintain a stable pH of around 5-5 to 7, maintain nutrients around 650-850, maintain a temperature of around 28 degrees and below, and can be monitored by the owner via an internet network which can be accessed via smartphone as the name suggests, namely Internet-based. of Things (IoT). The result of maintaining this stability is good and quality plants.
PROTOTYPE ALAT PENDETEKSI GEMPA MENGGUNAKAN SENSOR ACCELEROMETER ADXL335 BERBASIS INTERNET OF THINGS
An earthquake is a natural phenomenon that can be caused either by human activity or by natural events. A disaster is an unpredictable natural event. Of the few earthquakes that have ever occurred, many citizens are always late to save themselves or evacuate to a safe place because of the late notification of earthquake information that occurred at the location. One of the solutions to minimize such impacts is to create a prototype earthquake detector using an Internet of Things-based adxl335 accelerometer sensor. It works from an accelerometersensor that detects vibrations or shocks, then processed by ESP32 as a microcontroller and Telegram as an Internet of Things based monitoring dashboard through notifications sent by a telegram bot. Buzzer and LED indicator lights are connected to the telegram application to monitor realtime earthquake warnings. The richter scale value will be displayed on the I2C LCD as a direct monitor for warning information
