Improving Student’s Communication Skills in Social Science Learning Through a Scientific Approach

/in /by

The goal of this study is to see if using a scientific approach might help students enhance their communication abilities in social studies classes. A one-group pretest-posttest research design was adopted in this research. The research participants were students from SMP Negeri 46 Kerinci, with a total population of 95 students and a sample of 30 students from class VIII. The sampling approach used in this research was a random sample technique. Observation sheets and a communication skills assessment were used to collect data. IBM SPSS version 25 software was used to statistically analyze the research data. The findings imply that teaching social studies using a scientific approach has a significant influence on students’ communication skills.

The Concentrations of Cholesterol and Reproduction Hormones in Serum of Rabbits Doe That Consumed Moringa oleifera Leaf Extracts

/in /by

This study was conducted to examine the effect of various kinds of Moringa leaf extracts on cholesterol, estradiol, FSH, LH levels and litter size in rabbit does. The extracts used were hexane fraction extract (HeEF), ethanol fraction extract (EtEF) and ethanol rough extract (EtCE) from moringa leaf flour. Seven treatments were administered including extracts in pellets at a dose of 0, 0.13% HeEF, 0.26% HeEF, 0.37 EtEF, 0.74% EtEF, 0.54% EtCE and 1.08% EtCE. Each treatment was reduplicated on 4 rabbits. Cholesterol levels, estradiol, LH and FSH blood serum, mating readiness and litter size were measured, which results showed that the treatment significantly (P <5%) lowered the cholesterol level and increased the estradiol level in blood serum. On the other hand, the treatment had no significant effect on FSH, LH and litter size levels except at LH levels 2 hours after mating.

Application of Scientific Guided Inquiry Assisted Video Analysis Tracker to Improve Science Generic Skills

/in /by

The study was done to identify the generic science skill improvement through guided scientific inquiry method video tracker analysis based. The method used in this study was quantitative pretest-posttest control group design. The samples of this were 52 students of the Physics Education Program of STKIP SoE. The instrument used in this study was a generic science skill test instrument on kinetic learning materials. The data analysis technique used was a t-test independent sample. The result of the study showed that students who learned guided scientific inquiry method video tracker analysis based were better than those who learned using the conventional method. This happened because the students were allowed to do the experiment that make the student freely understands generic science skill, thus making the learning process more interesting and meaningful. Therefore, it was suggested to use this method (guided scientific Inquiry method video tracker analysis based) in the process of learning in the classroom.

Allelopathic Potential of Rice Straw Incorporation on Weed Emergence in Rice Cultivars

/in /by

Laboratory experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of in corporation of rice straw on the germination of different rice cultivars viz: ADT 36,ADT 38,ADT49,CO43.Further the allelopathic impact of crop residues on weed count and weed biomass was also registered. Different rates of incorporation was tried and higher the rate of incorporation, higher the inhibitions on rice and weed observations. Reduction in the performance of rice seed germination and growth parameters was observed with increased rice straw incorporation in all the four rice cultivars tried. Perhaps the rice straw incorporation had an influence on the biomass of rice cultivars too.

The Effect of Nanogold-Nanosilver to Boost Immunity in People Affected (Reactive and Positive) by Covid-19

/in /by

COVID-19 virus outbreak was first found in Wuhan China. The current COVID-19 is caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (Sars-CoV-2). The interaction of the virus with the immune system causes the immunity of people affected by the outbreak to decrease. The combination of nanogold and nanosilver, that is an antimicrobial and antiviral agent, can inhibit the replication of the COVID-19 virus an d act as drug delivery. This research aims to determine the effect of nanogold-nanosilver that can increase immunity in people who are positively affected by the COVID-19 virus. The method used in this research was quantitative descriptive by describing the effect of the nanogold-nanosilver health drink given to increasing human immunity exposed to the COVID-19 virus seen from the number of respondent cures. The respondents consumed 500 mL of health drinks containing nanogold and nanosilver compounds with a concentration of 2 ppm per day. Based on the data obtained, the combination of nanogold and nanosilver could increase the immunity of people affected by COVID-19, marked by physical changes that became healthier, fitter and negative swab test results and accelerate the healing of COVID-19 patients.
