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.

Judul: The Analysis Of Factors That Influence Human Development Index In West Java
Abstrak: Human Development Index (HDI) is a measure for the quality of human development. The increas development will have an impact on improving the quality of economic growth. The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) since 1990 has used the HDI to measures achievement of human development process. Human Development Index devided in three aspects: longevity, knowledge and decent living. This study examines the factors that influence human development index in West Java province and discussed the policy implications compared to the reality that occure in this province.The study was conducted in West Java province by using secondary data derived from BPS and Bappeda Jawa Barat from 2005- 2009. This study used panel data regression model to determine the factors that influence human development index and used descriptive analysis to discuss policy implication. This study showsed GDP per capita, poverty, education facilities, teacher, health fascilities, health care, and infrastructure significantly influence the human development index. Factors above should be priority to improve so that West Java would achieve higher HDI.This study also found that Kabupaten Sukabumi, Kabupaten Kuningan, Kabupaten Cirebon, Kabupaten Sumedang, and Kabupaten Purwakarta have the lowest HDI in West Java Province.

Judul: Sintesis 1-Kloro-2-metoksi-6-propilnaftalena-1,3-dioksolana (1:1) sebagai Prekursor Asam (S)-(+)-(6-Metoksi-2-naftil)propanoat
Abstrak: Senyawa 1-kloro-2-metoksi-6-propilnaftalena-1,3-dioksolana (1:1) sebagai prekursor asam (S)-(+)-(6-metoksi-2-naftil)propanoat disintesis dari bahan awal 2-metoksinaftalena. Tahapan sintesis diawali dengan klorinasi menggunakan 2 jenis pereaksi klorinasi, yakni isosianurat terklorinasi dan NaOCl. Klorinasi dengan isosianurat terklorinasi berhasil menyintesis 1-kloro-2-metoksinaftalena sebagai produk monoklorinasi melalui pencirian dengan kromatograf gas-spektrometer massa (GC-MS). Nisbah konversi produk paling efisien diperoleh pada laju penambahan 2.5 mmol/jam. Sebaliknya, klorinasi dengan NaOCl menghasilkan produk triklorinasi. 1-Kloro-2-metoksinaftalena selanjutnya diasilasi dengan propanoil klorida, tetapi analisis dengan GC menunjukkan bahwa produk asilasi tidak terbentuk. Sistem bebas-air diperlukan untuk keberhasilan proses asilasi tersebut.
