Judul: Persepsi guru dalam penerapan pendidikan lingkungan hidup di sekolah dasar sekitar hutan kawasan Gunung Salak Endah Kabupaten Bogor
Abstrak: This research aimed at identifying teacher’s perception of the environment, teacher’s perception of Environmental Education (EE) implementation, and the influencing factors. Data were collected through structured questionnaire, guided interview, field observation, as well as archives and secondary documents. Factor analysis, Spearman correlation, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Mann-Whitney test were used to analyse the data. The results showed that, first, according to the result of the Draw-An-Environment-Test (DAET), teachers from forest margin area have limited environmental perception due to lack of capacity in expressing their thoughts in drawings and writings. However, since writing and drawing are not yet internalized as an important behavior in education, the DAET instrument should be critically improved or revised to make it fits for developing countries such as Indonesia. Second, according to the result of Factor Analysis, the perception of teachers toward EE is constructed from three major factors, i.e. the EE teaching effectiveness, its benefits, and outcome expectancy. The first factor – the EE teaching effectiveness – is formed by four variables i.e. perceived competence, self-efficacy, pressure/tension and perceived choice. Further analysis shows that the teacher often views him or herself as having low competence and self-efficacy due to the EE course experience and his/her educational level. The second factor resulted from Factor Analysis – the EE benefits – is formed by three variables, i.e. interest/enjoyment, efforts, and usefulness of the EE course. The EE benefits itself, according to Kruskal-Wallis test, are determine by EE training course received, level of grade taught and the nature-based organizational experienced by the teachers. Third, in order to reach effective EE teaching, the capacity, motivation, perceived competence and self-efficacy of the teachers should be strengthen. This includes but not limited to the mastery of environment-related subjects particularly forest conservation topics, strengthen skills for outdoor teaching and increased compassion on the environmental issues and/or forest related problems.

Penelitian ini menggunakan desain penelitian cross sectional study dan teknis penarikan contoh menggunakan probability sampling dengan metode cluster random sampling. Data dikumpulkan dengan membagikan kuesioner penelitian yang diisi sendiri oleh responden (self-administered) dengan pendampingan. Responden dalam penelitian ini merupakan siswa SD kelas 4, 5, dan 6 dengan jumlah 207 siswa. Analisis data deskriptif dan uji korelasi menggunakan SPSS, sedangkan untuk uji SEM menggunakan Smart PLS. Hasil uji korelasi menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan antara pendidikan terakhir ayah dan ibu, serta pekerjaan ayah dengan perilaku ekologis. Analisis SEM menunjukkan bahwa tanggung jawab lingkungan berpengaruh positif signifikan secara langsung terhadap sikap lingkungan. Pengetahuan lingkungan, tanggung jawab lingkungan, dan sikap lingkungan memiliki pengaruh langsung yang positif signifikan terhadap perilaku ekologis. Perilaku ekologis anak dapat ditingkatkan dengan cara membiasakan diri mengurangi limbah sampah, membuang sampah pada tempatnya, menghemat energi listrik dan air, serta melakukan daur ulang sampah., Environmental problems that still occur in Indonesia are waste and excessive energy use. On the other hand, the government has held the Adiwiyata school program as a form of implementation of learning about the environment in the school realm. This study aims to analyze the influence of knowledge, awareness, responsibility, and environmental attitudes on the ecological behavior of school-age children. This study used a cross sectional study design and sampling technique using probability sampling with cluster random sampling method. Data were collected by distributing research questionnaires that were filled out by the respondents themselves with assistance. Respondents of this study were elementary school students in grades 4, 5, and 6 with a total of 207 students. Descriptive data analysis and correlation tests used SPSS, while the SEM test used Smart PLS. The correlation test results show that there is a relationship between the last education of the father and mother, as well as the father's occupation with ecological behavior. SEM analysis shows that environmental responsibility has a significant positive effect directly on environmental attitudes. Environmental knowledge, environmental responsibility, and environmental attitudes also have a significant positive direct effect on ecological behavior. Children's ecological behavior can be improved by getting used to reducing waste, throwing garbage in its place, saving electricity and water, and recycling waste.

Judul: Metoda intramedullary pin sebagai salah satu cara menanggulangi fraktur femoralis pada anjing
Abstrak: Metoda intramedullary pin merupakan salah satu metoda penanggulangan fraktur yang populer karena banyak mempunyai keuntungan, diantaranya adalah : cepat dan mudah dikerja- kan, fiksasi yang dihasilkan lebih kuat dibandingkan metoda plate, setelah sembuh tulang menjadi lebih kuat, dan biaya yang digunakan relatif lebih ekonomis. Beberapa macam intramedullary pin yang ada, diantara- Steinmann pin, Rush pin, Kirschner pin, Kuentscher nya : nail, dan Leighton Shuttle pin. Teknik pemasangan intramedullary pin dapat melalui operasi tertutup atau operasi terbuka, tergantung dari ti- pe dan derajat fraktur. Pada operasi tertutup tidak dila- kukan pembukaan terhadap lokasi fraktur. Penyisipan pin dilakukan melalui fragmen fraktur proximal diteruskan ke fragmen distal, sehingga pada metoda ini luka yang timbul hanya pada tempat dimana pin tersebut dimasukkan. Pada operasi terbuka penyisipan pin dilakukan melalui pembukaan lokasi fraktur. Dalam melakukan pembukaan terhadap lokasi fraktur, harus dipilih pendekatan yang paling sesuai dan paling sedikit kemungkinannya untuk menimbulkan komplikasi. Pengambilan pin biasanya dilakukan setelah empat atau lima minggu disisipkan, diharapkan pada waktu itu telah terjadi pembentukan callus yang sudah cukup kuat untuk me- nunjang berdirinya tubuh. Pada beberapa keadaan pin tidak perlu diambil, misalnya pada anjing tua atau pada anjing yang menderita penyakit tulang. Tidak ada reaksi sakit... akibat pin bertahan di dalam tulang.
