Judul: Web User Interface Design for  Human-Computer Interaction Subjects to Support Project-Based Learning  Activities
Abstrak: Web pembelajaran mata kuliah Desain Pengalaman Pengguna (DPP) saat ini masih belum menunjang proses Pembelajaran Berbasis Proyek (PBP) pada mata kuliah terkait karena web yang diberikan masih kurang efektif untuk digunakan. Permasalahan pada penelitian ini adalah hanya sedikit mahasiswa yang mengakses web mata kuliah Desain Pengalaman Pengguna (DPP), sehingga perlu dilakukan pembuatan tampilan web mata kuliah DPP yang bisa menunjang proses PBP, serta pengujian tampilan web yang sudah dibuat. Penelitian dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode design thinking untuk menghasilkan antarmuka pengguna grafis dari web pembelajaran DPP berdasarkan hasil dari tahap problem space dan conceptual solution space dari penelitian sebelumnya. Antarmuka pengguna grafis dibuat melalui proses pembuatan wireframe, style guides, dan medium-fidelity prototype. Prototipe yang dihasilkan kemudian diuji dengan menggunakan Aalto antarmuka Metrics (AIM) yang terdiri atas empat komponen, yaitu colour perception, perceptual fluency, visual guidance, dan accessibility. Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat membantu terwujudnya web DPP sebagai web pembelajaran yang mempermudah pengguna dalam proses belajar DPP.

Judul: User Research on Learning Website for User Experience Design Course to Support Project-Based Learning
Abstrak: At this time, the learning website for the Human-Computer Interaction course still does not support the project-based learning process, because the web provided is still not effective to use. The problem in this study is that there are still few students participating in the User Experience Design course who open the course learning website, this makes the learning web less effective and has not fulfilled the purpose of its creation. This research was conducted using the Design Thinking method to determine user needs based on the results of direct research to users. This understanding of user needs is obtained from surveys to users which generates insight about user’s need and behavior, web analytics which generates data of total users and views of the website, and participatory design which generates user persona, customer journey maps, and how might we questions. This research is expected to help for the development of new experiences for the learning website in future research., Pada saat ini, web pembelajaran Mata Kuliah Desain Pengalaman Pengguna (DPP) masih belum menunjang proses pembelajaran berbasis proyek (PBP), karena web yang diberikan masih kurang efektif untuk digunakan. Permasalahan pada penelitian ini adalah mahasiswa peserta mata kuliah DPP yang membuka web pembelajaran mata kuliah masih sedikit, hal ini membuat web pembelajaran jadi kurang efektif dan belum memenuhi tujuan pembuatannya. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode Design Thinking untuk mengetahui kebutuhan pengguna berdasarkan hasil dari riset langsung ke pengguna. Pemahaman kebutuhan pengguna ini didapatkan dari survei ke pengguna yang menghasilkan wawasan mengenai kebutuhan dan perilaku pengguna saat menggunakan web pembelajaran, web analytics yang menghasilkan data aktual mengenai jumlah pengguna yang mengunjungi web pembelajaran dan berapa kali web pembelajaran dilihat oleh pengguna, dan participatory design yang menghasilkan user persona, customer journey map, dan how might we questions.. Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat membantu untuk pengembangan pengalaman baru untuk web pembelajaran DPP pada penelitian selanjutnya.

Judul: Biological Characteristics of Jatropha curcas Trimonoecious
Abstrak: Physic nut (Jatropha curcas L.) is an original plant from tropical America belonging to the family of Euphorbiaceae and an annual plant of monoecious. Commonly J.curcas have male and female flowers on the same plant. There are currently some J. curcas which have hermaphrodite flowers from monoecious plants, but very rarely. J. curcas with hermaphrodite flowers are classified as andromonoecious type (having hermaphrodite and male in the same plant) and trimonoecious type (having male, female, and hermaphrodite flowers in the plant). Trimonoecious plants with hermaphrodite flowers were tend to perform self-pollination (geitonogamy) and produce a homogenous and high-productivity in next generation. J. curcas plants is difficult in differentiating between monoecious and trimonoecious plants when it seedling, and this is a limiting factor to know development of trimonoecious J. curcas. Trimonoecious J.curcas can be identified after six months of planting, and when it have started flowering. Therefore, the trimonoecious J. curcas biological characteristics needs to be an observation. The trimonoecious trait in J. curcas plants can be identified through several analyses, i.e. the analysis of agronomical characteristics, the chromosomes analysis, the isozyme analysis, and the analysis of pollen viability. The study was conducted in December 2011 - February 2013. The experiments were conducted using the Randomized Complete Block Design for one factor, the J. curcas genotype with 5 replicates. Each unit of the experiment consisted of 5 plants. Aagronomics characteristic analyses were conducted using analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by the Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at 5% level. The classification of heritability and Genetic Variation Coefficient (GVC) criteria and relative Phenotypic Variation Coefficient (PVC). The analysis of genetic distance clustering was done using the Minitab 1.5 program clustering method. J. curcas stem trimonoecious characters is the primary branches angle, stem diameter, number of primary and secondary branches have a higher size than monoecious plants. Diameter and thickness fruit flesh origins from monoecious plants larger than fruit from plants trimonoecious. Characteristics of the trimonoecious plants in this study were almost the same with their mother plant. Number chromosomes number of J. curcas plant genotypes have 2n = 22 chromosomes The average length of the trimonoecious plant’s chromosome was longer than the average for monoecious plants. The length of chromosomes can differ among one family, even though the numbers of the chromosomes are similar. Isozymes peroxidase (Rf 0.83) and esterase (Rf 0.20) could be used as markers to differentiate between trimonoecious and monoecious plants. Male flower pollen viability of plant origin trimonoecious have a slower rate of decrease than male flowers monoecious plants. The dendrogram from the cluster analysis results could differentiate between trimonoecious and monoecious plants with a variation coefficient of 27.25.
