Judul: The Influence of Education Budget and Other Factors on Human Development Index in West Java Province
Abstrak: Pembangunan manusia yang berkualitas dapat tercapai melalui pemenuhan aspek pelayanan dasar masyarakat, salah satunya yaitu pendidikan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pembagian kewenangan dan koordinasi bidang pendidikan, serta pengaruh anggaran pendidikan dan faktor lainnya terhadap IPM di Provinsi Jawa Barat. Pembagian kewenangan dan koordinasi bidang pendidikan dianalisis secara kualitatif deskriptif dengan interview kepada KCD Pendidikan Wilayah II Jawa Barat, sedangkan pengaruh anggaran pendidikan dan faktor lainnya terhadap IPM dianalisis dengan metode data panel statis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan DAK dan PAD meningkatkan belanja pendidikan, namun ketika DAK pendidikan diuraikan maka pengaruh yang lebih dominan terhadap peningkatan belanja pendidikan yaitu DAK non fisik pendidikan. Belanja pendidikan, RLS dan AHH meningkatkan indeks pendidikan, namun pengaruh belanja pendidikan terhadap indeks pendidikan pada kabupaten lebih rendah dibandingkan kota di Provinsi Jawa Barat. Indeks pendidikan, indeks harapan hidup dan indeks pengeluaran meningkatkan IPM, sedangkan jumlah penduduk miskin akan menurunkan IPM. Penerimaan daerah yang paling berpengaruh terhadap peningkatan IPM yaitu DAK non fisik pendidikan. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, perlu perhatian pada pemerataan pendidikan terutama akses pendidikan yang layak di daerah-daerah terpencil, sehingga daya serap sistem pendidikan terhadap penduduk usia sekolah dapat merata di berbagai wilayah., Quality human development can be achieved through the fulfillment of aspects of basic public services, one of which is education. This study aims to analyze the distribution of authority and coordination in the education sector, as well as the influence of the education budget and other factors on the HDI in West Java Province. The division of authority and coordination in the field of education were analyzed qualitatively descriptively by interviewing KCD Education Region II West Java, while the influence of the education budget and other factors on HDI was analyzed using the static panel data method. The results showed that DAK and PAD increased education spending, but when the DAK for education was described, the more dominant influence on the increase in education spending was DAK for non-physical education. Education spending, RLS and AHH increase the education index, but the effect of education spending on the education index in districts is lower than in cities in West Java Province. The education index, life expectancy index and expenditure index increase the HDI, while the number of poor people will reduce the HDI. Regional revenues that have the most influence on increasing HDI are DAK for non-physical education. Based on the results of the study, it is necessary to pay attention to the distribution of education, especially access to proper education in remote areas, so that the absorption of the education system for the school-age population can be evenly distributed in various regions.

Abstrak: Human Development Index (HDI) is an indicator used to measure one aspect of the development outcomes of the government, namely the degree of human development. Human Development Index has 3 elements, economic, health, and education. This research will discuss about how the relationship of the Human Development Index value in every district and city in West Java with the budget for the sector of economic, health, and education, as well as will be seen also how the correlation of each budget sector by components of the HDI. At first to see the relationship with the HDI used the percentage of the budget but in fact the correlation is small enough, then the percentage of the budget is replaced with budget in rupiah. Furthermore combining district and city areas in the calculation also affects the correlation value; when combined, the correlation value between budget and HDI is negative. The same thing happens to the corrlation between budget and HDI components. In addition, the scatterplots show that districts and cities has its own pattern of clusters so that the cities which have high HDI values are separated from the calculations to see if it affects the value of the correlation. 6 Correlation values obtained in the calculation indicate that the budget is related to HDI values of the districts and cities in West Java.

Judul: Sintesis Krisin dari Floroglusinol
Abstrak: Flavone is a class of flavonoid, widely distributed in vascular plants. Flavones containing hydroxyl groups at 5 and 7 position are quite important regarding their biological activities and their abiquity in nature. Flavone having hydroxyl groups only at position 5 and 7 or 5,7-dihydroxyflavone is known as chrysin. In this study, crude chrysin had been successfully synthesized in 3 steps from phloroglucinol as starting material. Phloroglucinol was acetylated with acetonitrile and HCl gas, resulting phloroacetophenone amount to 74%. Phloroacetophenone benzoylation with 4.5 equivalents of benzoyl chloride produced tribenzoyl phloroacetophenone in 103–107% of yield and the subsequent Baker-Venkataraman rearrangement of the ester by using KOH in dried pyridine produced crude chrysin, with conversion percentage of 71.62%. All synthetic products had been characterized by melting point and spectroscopically.
