Authors: Luh De Liska , Suastra I Wayan
Published: May 2024

The Pancasila student profile is a number of characters and competencies that are expected to be possessed by students, which are based on the noble values of Pancasila. The perennialism approach is a method of instilling strong and lasting human good values to students, so that they can understand and believe in noble lives and are able to implement them in everyday life. Perennialism arises because the world situation is full of chaos, poor human behaviour, and disorder, especially moral, intellectual and sociocultural decline. The method used in writing this scientific paper is a qualitative descriptive type that studies existing problems and applicable work procedures. The Pancasila Student Profile has 6 dimensions which include: having faith, fearing of God Almighty, and having a noble character; global diversity; self-sufficient; work together; critical reasoning; and creative. This discussion can be related to the view of perennialism which emphasizes the sustainability of eternal and universal values, as well as character building through a conducive learning environment. In the view of perennialism, strengthening the Pancasila student profile can be done through teaching that emphasizes a deep understanding of Pancasila values as eternal truths that must be mastered by every student.

Authors: Noviandy Teuku Rizky , Idroes Ghalieb Mutig , Hardi Irsan , Afjal Mohd , Ray Samrat
Published: May 2024

Customer churn is critical for businesses across various industries, especially in the telecommunications sector, where high churn rates can significantly impact revenue and growth. Understanding the factors leading to customer churn is essential for developing effective retention strategies. Despite the predictive power of machine learning models, there is a growing demand for model interpretability to ensure trust and transparency in decision-making processes. This study addresses this gap by applying advanced machine learning models, specifically Naïve Bayes, Random Forest, AdaBoost, XGBoost, and LightGBM, to predict customer churn in a telecommunications dataset. We enhanced model interpretability using SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP), which provides insights into feature contributions to predictions. Here, we show that LightGBM achieved the highest performance among the models, with an accuracy of 80.70%, precision of 84.35%, recall of 90.54%, and an F1-score of 87.34%. SHAP analysis revealed that features such as tenure, contract type, and monthly charges are significant predictors of customer churn. These results indicate that combining predictive analytics with interpretability methods can provide telecom companies with actionable insights to tailor retention strategies effectively. The study highlights the importance of understanding customer behavior through transparent and accurate models, paving the way for improved customer satisfaction and loyalty. Future research should focus on validating these findings with real-world data, exploring more sophisticated models, and incorporating temporal dynamics to enhance churn prediction models' predictive power and applicability.

Authors: Avello-Martínez Raidell , Gajderowicz Tomasz , Gómez-Rodríguez Víctor G
Published: May 2024

This study examines the impact of ChatGPT on narrative scriptwriting abilities and cognitive load in a sample of 41 master's students enrolled in a Digital Narratives course. Using a randomized experimental design, participants were divided into two groups: an experimental group (n = 20) that interacted with ChatGPT and a control group (n = 21) that did not. Our methods involved pre- and post-tests to assess changes in digital storytelling skills and cognitive load, as defined by intrinsic, extraneous, and germane load measures. The results indicated no significant improvement in digital storytelling skills for the experimental group compared to the control group, suggesting that the use of ChatGPT does not markedly enhance narrative writing abilities in the short term. However, a significant reduction in germane cognitive load was observed among the experimental group, pointing to ChatGPT's potential to facilitate the learning process by reducing the mental effort required for task integration and application. The study underscores the complexity of integrating AI into learning environments and highlights the need for strategic AI implementation tailored to specific educational objectives. It also points to the importance of longitudinal research to fully understand the long-term effects of AI on learning and cognitive development.

Este estudio examina el impacto de ChatGPT en las habilidades de escritura de guiones narrativos y la carga cognitiva en una muestra de 41 estudiantes de maestría matriculados en un curso de Narrativas Digitales. Utilizando un diseño experimental aleatorio, los participantes se dividieron en dos grupos: un grupo experimental (n = 20) que interactuaba con ChatGPT y un grupo de control (n = 21) que no lo hacía. Nuestros métodos incluyeron pruebas previas y posteriores para evaluar los cambios en las habilidades de narración digital y la carga cognitiva, según lo definido por medidas de carga intrínsecas, extrañas y pertinentes. Los resultados no indicaron una mejora significativa en las habilidades de narración digital para el grupo experimental en comparación con el grupo de control, lo que sugiere que el uso de ChatGPT no mejora notablemente las habilidades de escritura narrativa a corto plazo. Sin embargo, se observó una reducción significativa en la carga cognitiva relevante entre el grupo experimental, lo que apunta al potencial de ChatGPT para facilitar el proceso de aprendizaje al reducir el esfuerzo mental requerido para la integración y aplicación de tareas. El estudio subraya la complejidad de integrar la IA en entornos de aprendizaje y destaca la necesidad de una implementación estratégica de la IA adaptada a objetivos educativos específicos. También señala la importancia de la investigación longitudinal para comprender plenamente los efectos a largo plazo de la IA en el aprendizaje y el desarrollo cognitivo.

Published: May 2024

Introdução: As áreas protegidas desempenham um papel crucial na preservação da biodiversidade e na conservação ambiental globalmente, sendo as Reservas Naturais e as Áreas de Preservação Permanente (APPs) fundamentais para manter ecossistemas terrestres e aquáticos. No entanto, enfrentam desafios significativos de violação das medidas de preservação, ameaçando tanto o meio ambiente quanto a qualidade de vida das comunidades. Portanto, compreender essa problemática é essencial diante dos desafios ambientais e socioeconômicos contemporâneos. Objetivo: objetivo deste estudo foi analisar a exclusão da cobertura vegetal no processo indenizatório de áreas envolvidas por APPs. Metodologia: A metodologia utilizada neste estudo, baseada em levantamento bibliográfico em repositórios acadêmicos e abordagem qualitativa dos dados, proporcionou uma análise sólida e abrangente da exclusão da cobertura florestal em processos de desapropriação, contribuindo para a construção de conhecimento e para a formulação de recomendações embasadas em evidências científicas. Resultados: A exclusão da cobertura vegetal durante o processo de desapropriação é uma questão de grande relevância, uma vez que pode ter impactos significativos tanto no meio ambiente quanto na sociedade. Ao explorar essa temática, o estudo buscou compreender os fundamentos legais e ambientais que regem a exclusão da cobertura vegetal em áreas de APPs durante o processo indenizatório. Foram examinadas as legislações pertinentes, bem como jurisprudências e casos práticos que abordam essa questão, visando identificar os principais desafios e dilemas enfrentados pelos legisladores, órgãos ambientais e proprietários de terras. Conclusão: Com base nas análises das discussões e jurisprudências apresentadas, conclui-se que a criação de áreas de preservação, como o Parque Estadual da Serra do Mar, não garante automaticamente o direito à indenização devido às restrições já estabelecidas pelo Código Florestal. A indenização só é devida se as limitações do decreto estadual forem mais rígidas do que as existentes antes da criação da área e se houver prejuízo econômico.

Authors: Khmis Fatuma Ahmed , Ibua Mary , Kilungu Matata , Monari Damaris
Published: May 2024

Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) are the methods of dispute resolution other than courtroom litigation. Reconciliation, mediation, arbitration, and traditional dispute settlement are all recognized ADR mechanisms under Kenya's constitution which is supreme. ADR mechanisms thus come into play in order to resolve disputes outside of court, such as arbitration or mediation. Trade Unions are associations of employees with the sole responsibility of negotiating for better conditions of work as well as social positions of employees through collective bargaining. Their approach can also be both constructive and destructive to organizational performance. (Kariuki, 2018). In Kenya, Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) mechanisms were formally recognized after the promulgation of the constitution in 2010 under Article 159(2)(C). The article prescribed that courts should be guided by the need to promote ADR. This was necessitated by delays in the resolution of employee complaints leading to poor organizational performance and failure by institutions to fully implement Collective Bargaining Agreements. There has also been a steady rise in labor disputes in Kenya, for instance, the rampant disputes and strikes witnessed from Universities Academic Staff, Kenya Medical practitioners and other unions. The study objective was to determine the influence of perceived benefits in the adoption of ADR mechanism by Trade Unions in Kenya. The study was done at Kenya National Union of Teacher Union in Kenya. Theoretically, the study was anchored on Reason Action Theory (TRA) and Social Influence Theory (SIT). The study found out that perceived benefits significantly influence adoption of ADR mechanisms in Trade Unions in Kenya. The study concluded that a policy document needs to be put in place to enlightened and guide the Trade Unions Officials on the adoption of ADR mechanisms in resolving industrial disputes. Since it was observed some respondents had less or no knowledge on the adoption of ADR by Trade Unions in Kenya. The study recommends Trade Unions should adopt the use of ADR mechanisms in resolving industrial disputes, ensure organizations are given more knowledge on the benefits of adopting ADR mechanisms, create policies on direction of ADR mechanisms, as well as investing in the right knowledge on adoption of ADR mechanisms to boost on adopting ADR mechanisms by Trade unions in Kenya. The study also gives suggestions for further research.

Background: Intussusception is the invagination of a segment of bowel into an adjacent segment resulting into an intestinal obstruction. It is the most common acquired cause of intestinal obstruction in children under the age of 2 years.
The aim: The aim of this study to show about prevalence, surgical management, and outcome of intussusception in children.
Methods: By the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) 2020, this study was able to show that it met all of the requirements. This search approach, publications that came out between 2014 and 2024 were taken into account. Several different online reference sources, like Pubmed, SagePub, and Sciencedirect were used to do this. It was decided not to take into account review pieces, works that had already been published, or works that were only half done.
Result: Ten publications were found to be directly related to our ongoing systematic examination after a rigorous three-level screening approach. Subsequently, a comprehensive analysis of the complete text was conducted, and additional scrutiny was given to these articles.
Conclusion: Nonoperative management of intussusception should be adopted in carefully selected cases of intussusception in this subregion as it will help to reduce the financial burden on the parents while surgical management should be reserved for the complicated cases.

Throughout the process, there could be severe vibrations in the coke pushing ram, which could have an instant impact on the regular production of the coke oven. To find out more about the coke pushing ram's vibration characteristics and take precautions against vibrations, an analysis of those features is required. A mathematical model of a coke pushing ram in use during the coke pushing process is constructed in order to investigate the vibration mechanism of a coke pushing ram. In this section, the coke pushing current is used to estimate the coke pushing resistance. The results demonstrate that, once the slipper enters the carbonization chamber, the coke pushing velocity in the low-velocity, heavy-load coke pushing operation is less than the critical velocity. This implies that the stick-slip vibration originates from the coke pushing ram, and that the primary factors affecting the stability of the coke pushing ram are stiffness, damping, and the difference between the static and dynamic friction coefficients. Experiments and numerical modeling are performed to verify the accuracy of the results.
 
The stick-slip mechanism, vibrational ram, mathematical model, and coke pushing resistance are a few terms to consider.

Pulau Lakkang merupakan pulau kecil yang terletak di Kecamatan Tallo, Kota Makassar, secara geografis terletak di tengah wilayah Perkotaan Makassar, lokasinya berada di delta sungai tallo, sehingga letaknya yang terisolir dari kawasan daratan kota Makassar. Akses yang bisa sampai ke Pulau Lakkang harus melalui jalur transportasi air dilakukan dengan perahu tradisional (katamaran) sebagai media penyebrangan, hal ini dikarenakan tidak adanya akses jembatan menuju Pulau Lakkang. Untuk mendukung perkembangan kawasan wisata dan kebutuhan warga akan sarana akses transportasi. Dermaga menjadi fasilitas utama sebagai penambatan kapal yang menaik turunkan penumpang, kendaraan, barang-barang. Dermaga pulau lakkang berada pada lokasi berada pada sungai tallo dan memiliki jarak dekat dengan muara. Letak dan lingkungan menjadikan dermaga ini berbeda daripada dermaga sungai pada umumnya. Analisis pasang surut menjadi salah satu parameter bersama arus, kedalaman. Dermaga terapung bisa menjadi salah satu pengaplikasian pada Pulau Lakkang. Dalam desain dermaga terapung hal yang diperhatikan adalah ukuran dermaga yang kecil namum memiliki kapasitas yang besar. Dengan menggunakan analisis pembebanan menggunakan beberapa material ditemukan pengaruh ketebalan pelat terhadap sarat dan gaya apung pada saat keadaan penuh yang direncanakan pada dermaga terapung.

Kebersihan lingkungan masih menjadi masalah yang sangat serius hingga saat ini, padahal kebersihan merupakan hal yang harus diperhatikan bagi pemerintah dan kesadaran warga itu sendiri. Salah satu contoh kecilnya adalah kebersihan saluran dan saluran irigasi. Kebersihan tempat juga mempengaruhi kelangsungan sistem di tempat tersebut, seperti saluran air yang akan berdampak pada ekosistem laut. Jika hal ini terjadi pada ekosistem laut, tentunya akan sangat vital bagi masyarakat pesisir dan nelayan yang berprofesi sebagai nelayan dan petani rumput laut. Sebagian besar sampah laut terdiri dari plastik. Limbah ini dapat ditemukan di pantai maupun di kedalaman laut. Sampah laut ini juga memiliki ukuran yang berbeda-beda: mega, mikro, dan nano. Hal ini dapat membahayakan makhluk laut dan mencemari habitatnya. Masalah global ini semakin memburuk dari waktu ke waktu dan diperkirakan sampah plastik di lautan akan meningkat tiga kali lipat dari tahun 2015 hingga 2025. Akumulasi sampah plastik memiliki dampak besar pada laut dari perspektif lingkungan, ekonomi, kesehatan masyarakat, dan satwa liar. Misalnya, nanoplastik dari makanan laut dapat masuk ke dalam tubuh manusia melalui saluran pencernaan hingga ke sistem peredaran darah. Namun, kerugian tidak berhubungan langsung dengan manfaat sosial. Untuk menghentikan pembuangan sampah plastik, produk plastik harus dirancang, digunakan, dan dibuang dengan lebih bertanggung jawab. Pada artikel kali ini kami akan merancang tempat pembersih sampah berbasis arduino nano yang dapat dimonitoring mampu membersihkan sampah laut namun masih dalam skala kecil. Fitur utama dalam perancangan kapal ini adalah kamera FPV yang mampu memantau keadaan sekitar dan kapal digerakkan dengan remote control berupa joystick melalui sistem nirkabel NRF24L01. Dengan dibuatnya alat ini diharapkan dapat memudahkan pekerjaan para petugas kebersihan pantai atau siapapun yang ingin menjaga kebersihan khususnya di bidang kelautan, sekaligus menumbuhkan rasa tanggung jawab terhadap kemurnian lingkungan sekitar tempat kita tinggal.
Improved Q-learning Algorithm to Solve the Permutation Flow Shop Scheduling Problem
Authors: Xuan Zifeng , Liu Yunfei , Peng Xinxin
Published: May 2024

A modified Q-learning algorithm is proposed for the permutation flow shop scheduling problem. This algorithm initializes the environment with the job sequence and considers each processable job as an executable action. A reward function is defined as the reciprocal of the completion time. Moreover, the completion time is calculated using the principle of diagonalization of a two-dimensional matrix, significantly enhancing computational efficiency. The Boltzmann action exploration strategy is designed, where the probability of selecting an action decreases as the temperature coefficient T decreases, and the probability of randomly selecting an action decreases, favoring the selection of actions corresponding to larger Q values. Finally, the performance of the proposed algorithm is validated using instances of permutation flow shop scheduling problems of different scales. By comparing the results with standard instances and other algorithms, the accuracy of the algorithm is demonstrated.
