This study aims to determine the effect of interests and talents, facilities and learning motivation on students achievement (IPK). The population in this study were students of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences and students of the Faculty of Health Science in Universitas Nahdlatul Wathan Mataram, Indonesia. Samples used in this study were 33 students who were taken randomly. Data collection instruments using a questionnaire with a Likert scale that has been tested for validity and reliability before. The collected data were analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results show that: 1) learning facilities and motivation have a significant positive effect on student achievement (IPK), 2) interests and talents have no effect on student achievement (IPK), and 3) interests and talents, facilities and learning motivation simultaneously have an effect on significant on student learning achievement (IPK).
High input of chemical fertilizer causes land degradation on agriculture. This research is experimental which aims to analyze degree of acidity and macro-nutrients in mussel shell, and analyze chemical properties of soil before and after application of mussel shell suplement. The research was conducted during July to September 2020 at BPTP Laboratory, Narmada West Lombok. Data were analyzed descriptively. The results showed that mussel shell (Pilsbryocomcha excilis) had pH and macro-nutrients potential as an ecofertilizer. Soil chemical properties increase after application of mussel shell (Pilsbryocomcha excilis) supplement.
Key words: mussel; shell; soil enhancer; suplement
This community service activity aims to increase people's knowledge of how to do cupping properly and correctly, to create a healthy village during the pandemic, and as an effort to prevent the transmission of COVID-19 by promoting and preventive health measures. The method of implementing this service activity is by combining theories (discussion) 25% and practice 75%, as well as entrepreneurial provisions. There were 25 participants in the training. The evaluation instruments used were interviews, observation, and documentation. After all series of activities were carried out, the results of the service activity showed that the majority of participants had mastered the pre-cupping, cupping, and post-cupping procedures following the rules and procedures for the safety of the medical world.
Degradation of soil quality caused by the use of chemical fertilizers is a serious problem in agriculture. The use of environmentally friendly fertilizers is an important step to increase soil quality. One of them is by utilizing chicken eggshell waste as organic fertilizer. This study aims to utilize chicken eggshells with the right dose to improve soil quality. This research is a quantitative study using a completely randomized design. The results showed that the eggshell waste had the potential as an organic fertilizer to improve soil chemistry. Application of 6.25 gram egg shell/planting-hole can increase soil pH, C-Organic and N-total levels.
Diarrhea is an increased frequency and decreased consistency of stool when compared to normal individuals. Giving chemical medicine which consumed continuously, can cause negative side effects for the body. So it takes an effort to find sources of anti-diarrheal medicine that minimize side effects to the body. One source of medicine that can reduce side effects on the body is traditional medicine from local plants. One of the efforts to find a new source of anti-diarrheal medicine is to use tamarind leaves (Tamarindus indica L.) which will be developed into an anti-diarrheal bioagent. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of giving water extract of tamarind leaves (Tamarindus indica L.) fresh old leaves and young leaves to the experimental male Mus musculuus diarrhea positive. This research used three stages of research, namely the preparation of fresh old leaves and young leaves tamarind (Tamarindicus indica L.) leaf water extract, extract testing using 1% FeCl3 and UV-VIS spectrophotometer and testing using male Mus muscullus experimental animals. The results of this study indicate that the tannin content contained in the water extract of tamarind leaves (Tamarindus indica L.) is higher based on testing using 1% FeCl3 and UV-VIS septrophotometer and is more effective in overcoming diarrhea in experimental animals Mus muscullus based on changes in fecal consistency animal try to the Mus muscullus.
Key words: diarrhea; tannins; tamarind; water extract
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
