Authors: Pane Exson Eduaman
Published: December 2019

The doctrine of Original Sin has been debated for centuries among the Theologians includeAugustine. The Understanding of doctrine original sin as a theological term started from theteaching of Augustine around 5century B.C. Augustine‗s understanding regarding original sinderived from his problem and his question concerning the life of Adam and Eve, andparticularly in his youth experiences of adultery. He believed that all men involved inAdam‘s first sin and original sin was transmitted through the parents to their children.Augustine learned Manichaeism, however, he did not satisfied and then he went to learnedNeo-Platonism and deeply impressed to him both for his Neo-Platonism and the Christianlife. In Neo-Platonism, Augustine respect and received the Plotinus views. For NeoPlatonism, the root of sin is discovered in the very nature of the soul and in relation to thebody as self- isolation. Before it enters the body, the soul has a prior existence. When thesouls fall and that is how it comes to be in the body. But the point is that the soul has anunruly and evil nature in its irrational parts even before it enters the body so that it in onesense the cause of evil is present even in the soul preexistence state. Neo-Platonist believedthat original sin is transmitted from one to another, Neo-Platonism underscored this notion bysuggesting that in addition to such a transmission of evil, human souls would reappear viatransmigration, bringing to the new body their earlier errors and judgments of value.Therefore, this study is to analyze and to compare Augustine‘s view as a theologian of theoriginal sin with the Neo-Platonism concept.

The purpose of this study is to identify and understand the elements and the importance of design thinking and its implications in the management of design in products and services in organizations. Designs are the impact of the previous designs and the influences of human thinking on designs. Progressive learning on design thinking promotes a better understanding of consumer satisfaction. The methodology of the study was done with an observation method of product-service designs with a minimum of five years. The products considered are in the area of electronics (computer, mobile phones), service institutions, automobiles, road constructions, and houses. The data collected were of two categories, design patterns of aesthetics and functional components. Findings show there is progressive learning of human of physical factors on structural configuration and preferences relating to human physical, cognitive, spiritual and social need fulfillment. Designs fundamentally originate from human mind for ease of life (convenience), human behavioral factors, and structural implications. Design origins imply an understanding of consumers’ preferences by producers. Better designs generate demand. The inducement of designs in products and services improves consumers’ satisfaction. Further study could be undertaken ondesign functional thinking. Discussions on design thinking highlight design aptness in daily living, acceptance of design is subjective rather than objective, cost and design, creativity and design and the scope of design.

Authors: Lausin Faridah
Published: December 2019

The lack of conceptual understanding of stoichiometry among high school students is a validconcern not only because it impedes students’ problem-solving ability in stoichiometry butalso because it is a significant predictor of performance in college Chemistry. High schoolChemistry teachers, therefore, should evaluate and update their classroom practices to bestsupport conceptual learning, especially in the topic of Stoichiometry. This study investigatesthe effects of a visual-based pedagogical approach on the understanding of four concepts ofstoichiometry, namely the concepts of representative particles, mole ratio, limiting reagentand theoretical yield among tenth-grade Chemistry students at AIMS, Saraburi, Thailand.The approach involves systematic and extensive use of particulate diagrams in the instructionof stoichiometry concepts in a real classroom setting. The study further examines the attitudesof the students towards the method. The study employed the one- group pre-test post-testdesign. A Conceptual Stoichiometry Test (CST), and an Attitude Towards the Use of ParticleDiagrams (ATPD) questionnaire were the instruments used to collect data. Data wereanalyzed using the paired-sample t-test. Key results indicate that the approach had asignificant and positive effect on the students’ conceptual understanding of stoichiometry andthat the students generally had a favorable attitude towards the use of the method.

Published: December 2019

Impaired fasting glucose (IFG) is characterized by a blood glucose level higher than normalbut lower than that of diabetes level. Abelmoschus esculentus (okra) is an alternativehypoglycemic and antidiabetic plant due to its phytochemical constituents that regulateintestinal glucose absorption and prevents insulin resistance. This study determined thehypoglycemic activity of okra among IFG participants. Subjects were random subjects withimpaired fasting glucose results upon screening. Quasi-experimental pre-test post-test wasused where a standard glucose load was consumed in the control phase and powdered okraseed-peel mixed with the glucose load was consumed during the experimental phase. The bloodsugar concentration was measured again every hour until three hours after consumption of thestandard glucose load. In the experimental phase, the same group of participants was asked toconsume 75 grams of glucose load with powdered okra peel that depends on their body weight(200 mg/kg of body mass). Fasting, 1 -hour, 2-hour and 3-hour glucose concentration weremeasured the same way it was done during the control phase. Statistical analysis revealed thatAbelmoschus esculentus has its hypoglycemic effect only during the first hour while dataresults for the 2nd and 3 rd hour are considered insignificant. The results proved that okra’smechanism in lowering glucose levels is immediate yet of short duration. Based on the datagathered, the researchers conclude that the powdered peel of Abelmoschus esculentus (okra) iseffective in lowering the blood glucose levels of IFG individuals only during the first hour afterthe administration of oral glucose load. Abelmoschus esculentus may not be effective inlowering the blood glucose after the next hours due to the fact that its mechanism of action isimmediate but of short duration. The researchers recommend future researches on the study ofAbelmoschus esculentus using increased dosage of each participant and that the experimentshould be performed at the same month.

Authors: Siagian Valentine
Published: December 2019

This paper examines the gap between the expected service and reality from Uber’s customer perception. Service companies tend to be careful and pay more attention to their customers’ satisfaction and aim to have a good relationship to ensure their loyalty. Service quality dimension was used and applied to find the gap between customer satisfaction and customer expectation. The hypothesis was tested in the empirical study to find how service quality (with five dimensions: tangibility, reliability, responsiveness, assurance and empathy) affects customer satisfaction on using Uber service. 105 international students from Indonesia who lives in Taiwan and experienced riding with Uber in Taiwan filled out the online questionnaire. SPSS 23 was used to do the analysis. The result of F-test shows that customer satisfaction positively influenced by service quality, while t-test shows that there is improvement needed on responsiveness and empathy dimension. Rating system from Uber declares that customer satisfaction is 4.6 out of 5, this paper shows that customer satisfaction is 4.3 out of 5 from service quality dimension. Statistically this is a significant gap that needs to be filled to reach a closer gap to the expected service. This research can be done with a wider range to know more about customers’ delight on using Uber. Language barrier between customer and Uber driver could be the reason of the gap. Including Taiwanese students as respondents could be done for further research.

Published: December 2019

Geography, society, economic development, and health outcomes vary much among theAssociation of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). The health systems, structure and servicesvary considerably. As a consequence, the develpment for a Universal Health Coverage (UHC)in these countries also diverges. The objective of this article is to study the development towardthe UHC in ASEAN countries and the barriers that hinder the progress. Online and manualsearch methods were used to gather the information and ‘snowball’ further data. It is foundthat, in general, ASEAN countries have made good progress toward UHC. However, there aremajor barriers to all the countries in achieving UHC, namely 1) financial restrictions; 2) supplyside limitations: and 3) the increasing problems of non-communicable diseases, continuinginfectious diseases, and recurrence of potentially pandemic infectious illnesses. Whereas theminor obstacles are the divergence of 1) language; and 2) cultures. The ASEAN EconomicCommunity’s (AEC) aim of regional economic incorporation and a single market by 2015grants both prospects and tasks for UHC. Healthcare services have become more accessiblebut health and healthcare inequities will likely go downhill as better-off citizens of membercountries might have more benefits from the liberalization of trade plan in health. ASEAN hasnoteworthy prospective to become a power for better health in the region. It is hoped that allASEAN populations can enjoy greater health and safety standards, complete social security,and enhanced health status.

The results showed that there is a significant relationship between Liquidity and Profitability on Firm Value in the Transportation Sub Sector in the Indonesia Stock Exchange seen from F count 3.594 with a significant value of 0.05 at α=10%. The result descriptive result shows that sub-sector has average liquidity of 1.1656 and profitability of 3.55%. This result indicates that transportation companies have difficulties in their ability to gain profit and are generally liquid. Thus it is recommended for companies in the transportation sub-sector to have liquidity in their operation and focus on their ability to gain profit to maximize firm value.

Individuals with high levels of sedentary time may have significantly increased the relative riskof diabetes, cardiovascular events, cardiovascular mortality, and all-cause mortality,respectively. This study examined the acute effects of interrupting prolonged sitting with lightintensity calisthenics on postprandial hyperglycemia in healthy adults. Thirty normoglycemicuniversity students participated in this research. Each participant consumed standard 75-gramsglucose. The treatment was divided into two trials. First, the control trial, the participants wereinstructed to sit for five straight hours. The profile of changes in blood glucose was taken at aninterval of 30 minutes from minutes 0, 30, 90, 120, 180, 240, and 300. Second, theexperimental trial was the same with the control trial except that the participants did lightintensity calisthenics for 3 minutes then sit for 27 minutes, repeating this activity at the 30-minute intervals. Data were analyzed using a paired T-test. The baseline data between trialswere not significantly different in some points of blood glucose recording. There was adecrease in the blood glucose level of the experimental group. However, those decrementswere not significant statistically. This study found that interrupting sitting time with shortbouts of light-intensity calisthenics reduced postprandial hyperglycemia. However, this lightintensity activity reduced the postprandial hyperglycemia although not at a significant level.Given these positive effects observed in healthy participants, it seems prudent to regularlybreak periods of prolonged sitting with brief bouts of activity. Further study is recommendedon more frequent light-intensity bouts of exercise and shorter periods of uninterrupted sittingand at a higher intensity.

In this era, smartphone is a device that is difficult to separate from human life. This isbecause smartphones are not only used as a means of communication, but rather haveapplications that can be used to enjoy entertainment. Smartphones can also meet the needs ineducation, social, health, entertainment and even business, through an operating system thatis almost like a computer. Universitas Advent Indonesia (UNAI) has a program for studentswho want to study while working on the campus. The program is known as student labor. Thesystem used in the student labor program was still manual in which all stages, ranging fromstudents applying for jobs in each department they want to fill the working hours still usingpaper. Student labor information system applications are built using hybrid mobiletechnology. The SDLC waterfall model is a research method used to support the process inmaking this student labor application. And the design of UML ensures that the system is builtaccording to its purpose. This information system was developed using the IONICframework. The result is an information system that can enabled departments to controlstudent labor programs at UNAI. The application is able to send push notifications that willdisplay the latest notifications directly for each stage that can be used as a service to facilitateeach student, vice chancellor, head of the department, including finance department to findout every activity that takes place as program management for student labor more easily.Blackbox testing is used to validate the performance of the application and ensure that theapplication is built according to purpose. And it was found that the application is runningwell. Advice from the authors is that further research can be developed using react nativeapplications or using another updated application. And pay more attention to the security sideof data transmission.

Introduction: Graduate is one of the important support in the development of a university. Graduate have a role to assist universities in developing the university into the community through collaboration in academic terms. Since the establishment of the Adventist University of Indonesia (UNAI) to date has resulted in 12 608 qualified graduates, but the problems that exist today data on students graduated from UNAI difficult to find because UNAI not have a special service for containing information about the data the continuation of a career each of graduate that will be created as the relationships that can support the advancement of the quality of the Graduate at Adventist University of Indonesia.

Methods: With the difficulty of knowing the whereabouts of graduate, an graduate tracer study system was created using Web-based GPS that aims to make it easier for universities to find out the alumni position and is expected to be able to overcome the problems above. The graduate tracer study system was designed using a website-based system. .The system of Graduate tracer study was designed using a web-based system. The system is easy to use by any user because it is built using the waterfall method as a method of system development, laravel framework for building websites and using the Global Positioning System (GPS) locator that serves Graduate.

Results: The end result of this research is to facilitate UNAI system to track and determine the position of the Graduate as well as get information takes on new Graduate pass or long pass which spread to various area

Discussion: It is expected that the future can be developed to add features that are useful scholarship to help students who are still studying, and add graphs about graduate information in getting a job.
