This study aims to analyse the COVID-19 vaccines misinformation and its impact to the life aspect of the society. This study was a literature review discussing about COVID-19 vaccines misinformation and its impact. Based on the database and keywords, 15 articles were obtained, but only 7 articles had relevant topics. COVID-19 vaccines misinformation can lead to several impacts namely the damage on the prevention and control action regarding to COVID-19.

Mendeley Management Reference Application and Scientific Writing Strategy
Full text linkThe main obstacle in making a scientific paper is due to lack of experience in writing and weak knowledge of strategies in technical writing. This workshop aims to provide insight into writing strategies, train using the Mendeley application reference tool, and write citations in journals or scientific papers. This activity was carried out through the Zoom Meeting application by presenting competent resource persons and divided into several stages, starting from participant registration, education stages and direct practice of using applications on Microsoft Office Word. From the training results, ten universities with 150 participants participated, of which 52% of participants were unfamiliar with the Mendeley application. With the evaluation results, 70.47% of participants were able to operate this application. Participants stated that they were very interested in using the simple regression results, the R2 value = 0.9691, and the ease of use of the application obtained an R2 value of 0.9702
Characteristics Analysis of Modification Asbuton Granular B 50/30 With Asphalt Pen 60/70
Full text linkIn the framework of handling the bending pavement road, natural materials in the form of asphalt as a binding material in a hot paved blend are needed. One of the abundant natural asphaltic that has not been used to its fullest is Asbuton. The government through the Ministry of Public Works which is currently transformed into the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing has issued Public Works Regulation No. 35 of 2006 on Increasing the Utilization of Buton Asphalt for Road Maintenance and Development. Because various things that cause permission to use 100% Asbuton in hot paved blends can not be issued, the use of Asbuton is still limited to improving the quality of asphalt Pen 60/70. This research aims to obtain an optimal composition in the use of Asbuton using the type of Asbuton Grain B 50/30. It is hoped that the results of the research can be an additional reference for Asbuton producers as well as a new insight for civil engineering students who explore the path of bending pavement. The results showed that Asbuton Granular B 50/30 can be used in improving the quality of Asphalt Pen 60/70 with an optimal composition of 25% Asbuton Granular B 50/30 and 75% Asphalt Pen 60/70
Micro Business Segmentation Using Categorical Test Approach In Supporting Sales Network In East Java Indonesia
Full text linkThe main purpose of this research is to see or position the region in East Java, especially micro-enterprises by segmenting their products. There are five effective areas in East Java which are well-known centers of micro-enterprises, i.e Mojokerto, Pasuruan, Malang, Gresik and Lumajang with their local wisdom products. There are 160 micro business actors in the five regions of East Java. Where their products have the opportunity to be developed into mainstay products in the province of East Java. Based on the results of the Categorical test, an overview of the test results is obtained, i.e: for micro-enterprises in Malang and Gresik they have the same character (dimension 1, i.e: innovation, product attractiveness, product originality, raw materials and environmentally friendly) both management and products so that because they have similarities , the two regions deserve to develop a joint business in a sales network. As for dimension 2 (selling value, market value, quality and market opportunity) micro-enterprises in Pasuruan, Malang and Gresik can form a group together in the sales network in facing market opportunities and increasing sales. Whereas micro-enterprises in Lumajang city (are in a neutral segment (not dimension 1 and not dimension 2), micro-enterprises in Lumajang district may compete with four other cities in fighting for market opportunities, both locally and globally because in the Categorical test the position of micro-enterprises Lumajang is categorized as having a special character and is different from the other four cities, i.e Malang, Gresik, Mojokerto and Pasuruan, so that only micro-enterprises in Lumajang district may not participate in the sales network

How effective have measures by Central Banks been in mitigating the impact of financial crisis
Full text linkDuring the global financial crisis, central banks around the globe implemented a series of unconventional monetary policy measures such as quantitative easing among others to avert the impact of financial crisis on financial system. There exist numerous studies on this area of interest, with each guided by a specific view of the problem and selectively chosen empirical observations with regard to the different developments. This paper reviewed literature to ascertain the effectiveness of conventional monetary policy measures and unconventional monetary measures used in mitigating the impact of the 2007/2008 global financial crisis, specifically by the major central banks including the Federal Reserve, European Central Bank and Bank of England. The study used systematic quantitative assessment technique (SQAT) to determine a high quality of papers that have been reviewed in the study. The result proved that conventional monetary policy measures are still potent to deliver their desired objectives but inadequate in times of acute crisis. Empirical evidences proved that central banks have not practically abandoned the core elements of their pre-crisis monetary policy. Through a complex form of strengthening and reassessment, they have instead complimented, extended and somewhat improved their measures to mitigate the impact of the financial crisis. An important lesson of the crisis is that there is opportunity to reinforce central banks with macro prudential supervision and regulation. This should be seen as complementary to the existing monetary policy measure in order to deliver the twin objectives of price and financial stability

Full text linkPuskesmas Ngagel Rejo is one of the health centers in Surabaya, has run the school dental health effort (UKGS), but has not been able to carry out oral health efforts in the community (UKGM), because puskesmas do not yet have a cadre of oral health in posyandu. The problem with research is that there is no oral health cadre at Puskesmas Ngagel Rejo Surabaya that serves the community. The study aims to increase the performance capacity of cadres of toddlers concurrently becoming oral health cadres as well, using training with a knowledge management approach: SECI. The study was a quasi-experimental study with a non-randomized control group of pre-post-design tests. There were three non-randomly selected groups, then given a pre-test to find out the initial state, which is the difference between the experimental group and the control group. Data analysis uses non-parametric data because the data is not distributed normally. The population of this study is a cadre of Puskesmas Ngagel Rejo Surabaya numbering 317 cadres, while the total sample is 150 cadres. As a result, there were significant differences in knowledge and skill levels between dental health training groups without SECI, dental health training groups with SECI, and control groups (p-value <0.001). This research can prove that the knowledge and skills of the SECI group are better than the other two groups. In conclusion, knowledge management-based training: SECI affects cadre behavior in oral health
