Judul: Peran Organisasi Pembelajar dalam Gerakan Petani
Abstrak: Masyarakat Desa Medalsari mengalami kerugian pasca terganggunya akses terhadap lahan garapan. Hilangnya lahan tersebut disebabkan oleh penyerobotan lahan yang dilakukan oleh oknum Perum Perhutani dengan cara memindahkan tapal batas lahan. Petani mulai mengorganisasikan diri dan membangun aksi kolektif dalam menghadapi sengketa. Kebutuhan petani akan peningkatan wawasan membawa mereka aktif mengikuti kegiatan pembelajaran yang mentransformasikan gerakan petani sebagai organisasi pembelajar. Tujuan dari tulisan ini adalah untuk menganalisa perubahan struktur penguasaan lahan yang menjadi objek sengketa dan mengidentifikasi organisasi pembelajar dalam gerakan petani. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan dengan menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif yang didukung oleh data kualitatif. Metode penarikan sampel yang digunakan adalah metode snowball sedangkan pemilihan terhadap informan dilakukan secara sengaja. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa faktor fasilitas berupa iklim terbuka dan pendidikan berkelanjutan serta orientasi belajar berupa pengembangan keterampilan memiliki hubungan yang kuat dengan dimensi gerakan petani.

Abstrak: This study was conducted to get the hematology and blood biochemistry profile of Komodo dragons at Ragunan Zoo. A total of 18 adult dragons were used. Blood was drawn as much as 2 mL whole blood for hematology and 3 mL for blood biochemistry in serum. Hematology examinations were done by automatic hemavet® machine except differential leukocytes were done manually and blood biochemistry examinations were done by biosystem® machine. Examinations results of erythrocyte parameters of total erythrocytes, hematocrit, hemoglobin, MCV, MCH, and MCHC in row are (1,24±0,21) × 106/mm3, (38,0±4,6) %, (13,3±1,6) g/dL, (311,4±49,9) fL, (109,4±18,7) pg, and (35,1±1,2) g/dL. Trombocytes count is (3,1±1.6) × 103/mm3 and erythrocyte sedimentation rate is (3,9 ± 1.7) mm/h. Leukocytes parameters indicate the values of total leukocytes, heterophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils in row are (6,53±9,47) × 103/mm3, (3,478±4,972) × 103/mm3, (2,959±4,694) × 103/mm3, (0,096±0,187) × 103/mm3, (0,00) /mm3, and (0,00) /mm3. Biochemical parameters indicate the values of total protein, albumin, globulin, AST, ALT, urea, and creatinine in row are (10,19±3,39) g/dL, (2,51±0,39) g/dL, (7,68±3,07) g/dL, (49,39±20,71) IU/L, (45,39±27,88) IU/L, (13,53±5,88) mg/dL, and (0,29±0,11) mg/dL. The result of examinations averagely showed values tend to normal. Some individual results demonstrated abnormalities which are suspected as acute infection in 1 dragon, foliculogenesis in 1 dragon, muscle disease in 2 dragons, and liver disease in 5 dragons.
