Authors: ŞENOL Ahmet Ferdi , KARAKURT Cenk
Published: November 2023

Türkiye’deki nüfus artışı, yapıların hizmet ömrünün tamamlanması, kentsel dönüşümlerin uygulanması, yeni konut ve altyapı ihtiyaçları ile birlikte çimentoya olan talep istikrarlı bir şekilde artmaya devam etmektedir. Bununla birlikte çimento üretimindeki artış, yüksek karbon emisyonuna ve fazladan enerji tüketimine de sebep olmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, inşaat endüstrisindeki çimento kullanımını azaltmak, atık mermer ve inşaat yıkım sahaları kaynaklı çevre kirliliğini bertaraf etmek amacıyla, öğütülmüş pişmiş kil (K) ve mermer (M) atıklarının çimentolu harçlarda kullanımı araştırılmıştır. Bu amaçla tasarlanan harç serilerinde, çimento yerine ağırlıkça; %0 (kontrol), %5, %10 ve %15 oranlarında atık toz malzemeler kullanılarak yedi serilik harç karışımları üretilmiş, taze harç serilerinin işlenebilirlik özellikleri belirlendikten sonra üretilen numunelere; 7, 28, 56 ve 90 günlük standart kür uygulanarak fiziksel ve mekanik özellikleri araştırılmıştır. Taze harç serilerinde, K ikamesi arttıkça yayılma değerleri azalırken, M ikamesi arttıkça yayılma değerleri de artmıştır. Serilere uygulanan 90 günlük kür sonunda elde edilen en yüksek dayanım sonuçları kontrol serisine göre karşılaştırıldığında; çimento yerine %10 oranında K kullanılarak üretilen harçların basınç ve eğilme dayanımları sırasıyla; %8 ve %4 oranlarında artarken, %5 oranında M kullanılarak üretilen harçların dayanımları da %2 ve %4 oranlarında artmıştır.

Published: November 2023

Bu çalışmada, farklı ikame seviyelerinde silis dumanı (SD) içeren betonların sodyum sülfat çözeltisine maruz kaldıktan sonraki özellikleri incelenmiştir. Bu amaçla, çimento ağırlığına göre %5, %10 ve %15 oranında SD kullanılmıştır. Karışımlar %3, %5 ve %10 konsantrasyona sahip Na2SO4 çözeltisinde 30, 60, 90 ve 120 günlük periyodlarda bekletilmiştir. Tüm karışımların çözeltiye maruz kalma sonrası basınç dayanım kayıpları ve genleşme oranları tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca karışımların taze beton özelliği olarak çökme değerleri ölçülmüştür. Özellikle SD ilaveli karışımların çökme değerlerinin azalmaması için süper akışkanlaştırıcı kullanılmıştır. Böylelikle SD ilaveli karışımların çökme değerlerinde kayda değer düşüşler meydana gelmemiştir. Test sonuçları, SD varlığının, sodyum sülfat etkisinden kaynaklanan dayanım kaybı üzerinde olumlu bir etkiye sahip olduğunu göstermiştir. Sodyum sülfat saldırısına karşı en iyi direnç, %15'lik SD ikamesi ile elde edilmiş olup; 120 günlük periyodda ve tüm konsantrasyon oranlarında %3 ile %8 arasında dayanım kaybı tespit edilmiştir. Özellikle %3 konsantrasyonlu çözeltiye maruz bırakılan numunelerin erken yaşlarda (30 ve 60.gün) dayanımlarında artış meydana gelmiştir. Bu durum, gözenek boşluklarının genişleyen ürünler tarafından doldurulmasına ve harç matrisinin yoğunlaştırılmasına bağlanabilir. %10 konsantrasyona sahip çözeltide bekletilen kontrol numunesinin bağıl artık basınç dayanımı %94 ile %77.95 aralığında değişirken, SD-15 numunesi için bu değerler %100.31 ile %92.35 aralığında elde edilmiştir. Ayrıca Na2SO4 çözeltisine maruz kalan numunelerin genleşme oranları, basınç dayanımı sonuçları ile benzerlik gösterdiği gözlemlenmiştir.

Published: November 2023

Waste copper-containing paint residue (WCPR) represents a typical hazardous waste containing both toxic organic substances and toxic heavy metals, but there are few reports on the recycling of heavy metals. The recovery of Cu from WCPR by H2SO4 leaching–extraction–stripping has the advantages of eco-friendliness, simplicity of operation, and high value-added product. The results show that under the optimal conditions, the leaching rate of Cu in WCPR is 94.31% (18.02 g/L), while the extraction and stripping rates of Cu in the leaching solution are 99.46 and 95.32%, respectively. Due to the high concentration of Cu2+ with fewer impurities in the stripping solution, the stripping solution is heated, evaporated, cooled, and crystallized to successfully produce high-purity dark blue CuSO4 crystal, accomplishing the high-value recycling of Cu in WCPR. In addition, the leach residue of WCPR contains acrylic resin and SiO2, which can be used in cement kilns for incineration, thus realizing the overall recycling and utilization of WCPR.

Published: November 2023

:

Cerebral vasospasm (CV) is a common severe complication of subarachnoid hemorrhage
(SAH), a severe type of intracranial bleeding that is uncommon in children. The purpose of this article
is to review the current literature regarding this potentially devastating complication. CV may be
asymptomatic and is less common in children compared to adults. Several molecular phenomena,
including inflammatory ones, contribute to its pathophysiology. Better collateral circulation and
higher cerebral blood flow are protective factors in children. When clinically apparent, CV may
manifest as a change in the child’s neurologic status or vital signs. CV can be diagnosed using brain
vessel imaging, such as computed tomography angiography, magnetic resonance angiography, digital
subtraction angiography, transcranial Doppler ultrasonography, and computed tomography perfusion.
A reduction of < 50% in the artery’s caliber confirms the diagnosis. Besides general supportive
measures and causative treatment of SAH, CV management options include the administration
of calcium channel blockers and neurointerventional approaches, such as intra-arterial vasodilators
and balloon angioplasty. Long-term outcomes in children are usually favorable.

Introduction:

There is increasing recognition that raising a child with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is stressful and challenging, particularly for mothers in resource-constrained countries. The aim of this study was to learn more about the experiences of black African mothers raising children with ASD and to gain a better understanding of the care burden.

Methods:

Semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine purposively recruited mothers of children with ASD and analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis.

Results:

The findings revealed that caring for children with ASD puts a tremendous psychological, emotional, and financial strain on mothers. Mothers commonly faced social judgment and stigma, which manifested as internalized self-blame, isolation, and social exclusion for both themselves and their children.

Conclusion:

The findings highlight the critical need to increase psychosocial support for mothers of children with ASD who live in resource-constrained countries.

Authors: Zondo Siyabonga , Abdullahi Yahaya , Noorbhai Habib
Published: November 2023

Objective:

Cricket is a bat-and-ball game played among teams. The game is correlated with complex proficiencies and strategies that require remarkable physical fitness levels. Investigations on competitive cricketers based on the community level are scanty. Furthermore, injuries occurring during play at this level are not well understood and additional research is required for injury prevention. The study explored the prevalence, aetiology, and risk factors of cricket injuries (sustained over a single season) among cricketers in a community setting.

Methods:

An epidemiological cross-sectional quantitative study design was performed. Data were collected from participants (n = 96), based on two cricket boards. A self-reported questionnaire for a single season was administered, which focused on demographics, the prevalence of injury, risk factors, and aetiology of injury.

Results:

A total of eighty-seven participants (90.6%) experienced injury or related musculoskeletal pain (K-S 0.145, p < 0.000). The most common sites were the upper limbs (51%), followed by the lower limbs (45.8). Specific anatomical sites prevalent were the shoulder (33.3%), ankle (33.3%), hand (25%), and thigh (22.9%). Overuse injuries (45.8%) were prevalent, as well as sprains (49%), strains (41.7%), and bruising (49%). Mechanisms included overuse (51%), rapid rotation (44.8%), and struck by ball (41.7%). Majority (82.3%) of the participants reported not having access to primary healthcare in the clubs.

Conclusion:

Community cricket players have a high overuse injury rate, concentrated mainly in the shoulder. Prevention and early primary healthcare are crucial in community-level sports.

Authors: Madzivhandila Palesa Mhleketo , Cochrane Maria Elizabeth , Nkuna Rethabile Dineo
Published: November 2023

Background:

Persistent low back pain (LBP) postpartum is a known phenomenon; however, the prevalence and characteristics thereof were unknown in South Africa.

Objectives:

This study determined the point prevalence and characteristics of women with persistent LBP postpartum.

Methods:

A cross-sectional quantitative design was used. Women over 18 years who gave birth more than six weeks prior to the study were included. Data were collected for both groups through physical measurements and questionnaires. Descriptive, correlational, and non-parametric statistical analysis was conducted.

Results:

50 women participated in the study, and 22 (44%) presented with persistent LBP postpartum. The group with LBP experienced a higher level of disability (54.5% - moderate disability and 4.5% - severe disability) compared to the pain-free group. Postnatal depression was indicated in 40.9% of the LBP group and was statistically significantly and moderately positively associated with the presence of LBP (p=0.000; r=0.53). Regarding activity and participation levels, 59.1% of females with LBP postpartum had a moderate risk for chronicity, and 13.6% had a high risk. The LBP pain group differed significantly in terms of participation in physical activity (p=0.000) compared to the pain-free group.

Conclusion:

The results indicated a high point prevalence of LBP six or more weeks postpartum (44%). On impairment level, disability and postnatal depression experienced by women with LBP postpartum differed from the pain-free group. Participants who were pain-free were much more physically active than participants with LBP. The results from the study implied low levels of physical activity in the presence of LBP.
Role of Soil Microbes in the Sustainable Development: Agriculture, Recovery of Metals and Biofuel Production
Authors: Singh Anurag , Bhatia Priya , Kapoor Shreya , Preet Kaur Simran , Gupta Sanjay , Chandra Nidhi S. , Gupta Vandana
Published: November 2023

Indiscriminate use of agrochemicals to ramp up production capabilities has
caused a considerable decline in soil health status. The growing awareness of their ill
effects on the environment and human health has called for a reversion to old organic
agricultural practices blended with modern-day science and technology. Soil
microorganisms with an identified ability to support plant growth are now being
deployed in the form of biofertilizers and microbial biocontrol agents. Other than
augmenting nutrition supply, these bio-inoculums can synthesize phytohormones and
can also enhance the micronutrient and organic content of the soil. They can further
induce resistance in plants against phytopathogens and compete against them by
secreting secondary metabolites to keep the pathogenic population in check. Soil
microorganisms, due to their omnipresence and survivability on varied substrates and
in different environmental conditions, also find their use in other applications such as
in the mining and energy industries. Unlike conventional metallurgical practices that
deplete high-grade mineral ore reserves and cause wide-scale destruction of habitats,
bioleaching provides a safe and cheap prospect for the recovery of metals. Other than
the extraction of precious metals from low-grade ores, they also find their use in metal
recovery from e-waste and can even remove heavy metals from soil. Moreover, the
rapidly developing mining and the agrochemical industry count upon fossil fuels to
meet their energy needs. In the final section of this chapter, we discuss a yet fascinating
aspect of how non-conventional sources of energy are produced by the action of soil
microorganisms to minimize strains on fossil fuel reserves. These biofuels, produced
by the transformation of organic biomass, have an edge over fossil fuels as they emit
low levels of particulate matter, sulphur dioxide, and carbon monoxide.

Commodity chemicals are the intermediates that are generally involved in
the synthesis of other high-end products. The increasing demand for various industrial
products has upscaled the requirement for commodity chemicals. Originally, the
industrial sector was dependent upon conventional and toxic chemicals to sustain its
processes. However, the advent of biotechnology led to the development of numerous
microbial processes producing enzymes, extremozymes, organic acids, organic
solvents, etc., Moreover, the soil environment has diverse forms of microbial
communities performing assorted functions. As a result, a thorough understanding of
the soil microbiota involved in providing regulatory ecosystem services can aid in the
development of exceptional microbial strains capable of meeting the high demand for
these commodity chemicals. In addition, the exploitation of these excellent
manipulative microbial systems can improve and customize the synthesis of
commodity chemicals and thereby reduce the reliance on synthetic and petroleumbased products. This chapter will inform the readers about the applications of soil
microbes in industry and their involvement in enzymes, extremozymes, organic acids,
and biopigments production.

Identification of Fungi on Rhizoplane and in Rhizosphere of Leguminous Crop by Adopting Different Techniques
Authors: Chaturvedi Deepali
Published: November 2023

Microbial inhabitants of soil are in an active state and change in response to
modifications in environmental conditions, amendments, management, etc. Although
various methods have been developed to study the biological properties of a disturbed
soil sample or with their precincts, adoption of a method should be done keeping in
mind the objective, limitations and assumptions of the method. Reproducibility of
results is important to have broad applicability and comparisons, which in turn will
depend upon effectiveness. Soil is a diverse medium having varying physicochemical
properties, and hence, there should be modifications while standardizing the method. It
will help in getting reproductive results. Sampling, processing, and storage of samples
are equally important to have a true picture of the soil and need appropriate care. The
numbers and kinds of fungi on the root surface, i.e., rhizoplane of the leguminous crop
plant and in the rhizosphere (near the roots), have been compared with the number and
kinds in root-free soil. The crops showed a typical rhizosphere effect, and there were
more microorganisms in the rhizosphere than in root-free soil. A total of 34 different
species of fungi were identified. The majority belong to the Aspergillus genus. Roots
and the rhizosphere of moth bean (Vigna aconitifolia) yielded a higher proportion of
fungi than did root-free soil

Lapscheure, etymologisch verscheurd. Een overzicht van de opvattingen, nieuwe gegevens en een voorstel tot verzoenende oplossing
Authors: De Grauwe Luc
Published: November 2023

The etymology of the West Flemish place name Lapscheure remains uncertain and contentious. The dispute involves both elements of the name. Gysseling (1960) interprets the second part, -scheure, as the local phonetic form of 'schuur' (barn), while Mansion (1935) and Tavernier-Vereecken (1954, 1968) suggest it means 'schoor/schor/schorre' (shore/marsh). The oldest records, such as "lappescura" (1019-30), use , with later records showing , indicating a Middle West Flemish pronunciation of [ø]. Tavernier-Vereecken's attempt to categorize 'schoor/schorre' within a group of ingvaeonisms (like veugel, weunen, bleuzen) lacks support in contemporary West Flemish.
       Conversely, unambiguous 'schuur' place names, such as the French-Flemish Ruischeure (Fr. Renescure) and Buisscheure (Fr. Buysscheure), suggest a more straightforward interpretation of 'schuur'. Mansion and Tavernier-Vereecken propose that Lapscheure derives from a personal name, such as Lappa or Lappo. Initially, Gysseling, however, considered the name could mean a repaired barn, later suggesting an Indo-European root *lap (‘bright, beautiful’), which gained little traction.
       The notion of a repaired barn appeared earlier in Tanghe's 1857 "Beschryving van Lapscheure". The noun lap (‘patch’) dates back to the 10th-century Old Dutch Wachtendonk Psalms and exists in all Germanic languages except Gothic. The verb lappen (‘to mend’) first appeared in 1285 (Dordrecht), possibly originating as a Northwest Germanic/Ingvaeonic term. However, naming a prominent barn this way is doubtful, whereas a personal name remains more plausible.
       The earliest form, with the expressive geminate -pp-, suggests Lappo as a diminutive of the frequent medieval name Landberht/Landbrecht, evolving through forms like Landbo, Lambo, Lampo, and Lampe to Lappe. This analysis aligns with similar transformations seen in medieval names, as discussed by Debrabandere (1980).
Picardisch in het Vlaams/Nederlands
Authors: Debrabandere Frans
Published: November 2023

This paper traces the evolution and integration of Picardian elements into Flemish, showing how many modern Flemish words and family names originate from Picardian forms, not standard French. Picardian influence on Middle Dutch orthography and phonology can be traced in Middle Dutch spellings form Flanders, with examples such as plache (D. plaats, ‘place’) and family names like Franchois from François. Additionally, the article highlights how Picardian preserved the Latin plosive k that evolved into a fricative ch in some other French dialects and later standard French, as seen in canter (Fr. chanter, ‘to sing’) and capiau (Fr. chapeau, ‘hat’). Also, some regional pronunciation variations, such as 'Pierre' evolving to 'Pire', are explained. Overall, the analysis suggests that many words traditionally attributed to French are more accurately derived from Picardian, emphasizing the profound linguistic interconnections between Flemish and Picardian dialects.
Vroegmiddeleeuwse funeraire diversiteit en de diepste dialectgrenzen in de Nederlanden
Authors: Van Durme Luc
Published: November 2023

The most prominent dialect boundaries in the Dutch language area run from north to south, ending in the southwest between the rivers Scheldt and Dender. Notably, one isogloss separates an eastern region with long vowels fronted by i-umlaut, from a western region lacking that feature. This paper examines the main historical linguistic perspectives on the origins of this complex phenomenon integrating historical and  archaeological evidence.
      A general explanation for the dialect boundaries posits a confrontation between an Ingvaeonic or North Sea Germanic movement from the west and a Frankish movement from the (north)east. The stabilisation of this confrontation, particularly the umlaut-isogloss between the Scheldt and the Dender, remains unresolved and is one of the most intriguing aspects of the Germanic colonisation of the region. Although historical sources are sparse, recent archaeological research has provided new insights. Archaeology, which studies human traces left in the ground - including living forms, artefacts, agriculture and burial practices – has revealed that early medieval cremation rites coincide with the umlaut-isogloss in that region, revealing a convergence between archaeological and historical linguistic evidence.
      Northern populations, familiar with Ingvaeonic customs, practised cremation, giving the oldest Ingvaeonic elements in the Low Countries both a cultural and linguistic identity. Alongside the Franks, the Saxons also contributed significantly to the colonisation history of the area. Therefore, it is essential to outline the historical knowledge of the first appearances of the Saxons, Franks and Thuringians and their interactions.
      Contemporary sources such as the Byzantine author Procopius (c. 550) are valuable for a better understanding of colonisation on both sides of the Channel and the North Sea. The roots of the umlaut-isoglosses in the Ingvaeonic continuum prompt a discussion of Ingvaeonisms and their early manifestations, including place names ending in -inga haim, within the broader context of the Dutch-Roman language boundary.

Findings revealed that about 36.84% of the respondents are aged 30 to 39.Most teachers are handling 1 to 10 LSENs in a class. These teachers have attended 61 or more hours of training, seminars, and workshops. Teachers’ competencies in content knowledge and pedagogical knowledge got the highest mean of 3.29 (Highly Competent). The competency in technological knowledge got the lowest mean of 3.16 (Competent). The challenges encountered by the teachers are as follows; lack of network connectivity, heavy workload follows this from home, and school activity, and the indicator lack of technical materials and equipment. Therefore,teachers are competent in integrating TPACK for Hyflex mode of teaching. Hence, it is strongly recommended that the output of the study with its scheme of implementation and the action plansshall be developed by all concerned parties.

Abstract: The abstract describes a machine learning model for highlighting important loan terms and conditions. The model analyses loan agreements using natural language processing techniques to identify key sections that borrowers should pay attention to. The model can accurately identify and highlight important clauses related to interest rates, repayment terms, fees, and other critical information by leveraging a combination of text classification and entity recognition algorithms. The model was trained on a large corpus of loan agreements and achieves high accuracy and precision in identifying important terms and conditions. This model has the potential to greatly improve transparency and accessibility in the lending process, allowing borrowers to make informed financial decisions.

Este trabalho apresenta a teoria social cognitiva de Albert Bandura que caracteriza a aprendizagem por observação. Objetiva-se elucidar aspectos existentes entre modelos simbólicos e agentes que remetem à aprendizagem por observação na sala de aula. A metodologia desenvolvida utilizou revisão bibliográfica, narrativa, do tipo exploratória, nos meses de abril a junho de 2023, utilizando operador booleano, da seguinte forma: Espaço AND social AND aprendizagem AND sala de aula AND observação AND Bandura. Os dados da pesquisa possibilitaram a análise de 07 artigos, distribuídos no Quadro 1 e Quadro 2, que corroboram para a compreensão da aprendizagem por observação na sala de aula. Os resultados mostram que a sala de aula, como espaço social de aprendizagem, só é possível pelo fato de que há códigos, habitus, que são esquemas de produção, percepção e apreciação, compreendidos pelos agentes e que sustentam a representação simbólica dos seus papéis nesse espaço.
A qualitative and quantitative approach to the drivers of economic growth in the EU
Authors: Sinoi Elena-Alexandra
Published: November 2023

This study assesses the effects of human capital (focusing on highly educated
immigrants), knowledge creation, and global governance quality on economic
output (proxied by gross domestic product [GDP] per capita) for EU member
states between 2000 and 2020. First, we use a qualitative approach to
emphasise the connections between GDP per capita and various determinants of
economic growth by performing a social network analysis [SNA]. The results
reveal that the three most important features of each network are a high GDP
per capita, governance quality, and human capital endowment (low scenario,
respectively). Second, we use quantitative data with which we run different
econometric models, such as robust regression analysis, generalised method
of moments (addressing endogeneity issues), and structural equation
modelling. We find that all the regressors have a significant influence on
GDP per capita, with the greatest magnitude exercised by tertiary-educated
immigrants (valuable resources acquired by destination countries), followed
by knowledge and governance quality indicators. These results remain robust
to several changes in the empirical estimation techniques.

Optimizing energy use in the kidney is critical for normal kidney function. Here, we investigate the effect of hyperglycemia and sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibition on urinary amino acid excretion in individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The open-label ATIRMA trial assessed the impact of 8 weeks of 25 mg empagliflozin orally once per day in 40 normotensive normoalbuminuric young adults with T1D. A consecutive 2-day assessment of clamped euglycemia and hyperglycemia was evaluated at baseline and posttreatment visits. Principal component analysis was performed on urinary amino acids grouped into representative metabolic pathways using MetaboAnalyst. At baseline, acute hyperglycemia was associated with changes in 25 of the 33 urinary amino acids or their metabolites. The most significant amino acid metabolites affected by acute hyperglycemia were 3-hydroxykynurenine, serotonin, glycyl-histidine, and nicotinic acid. The changes in amino acid metabolites were reflected by the induction of four biosynthetic pathways: aminoacyl-tRNA; valine, leucine, and isoleucine; arginine; and phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan. In acute hyperglycemia, empagliflozin significantly attenuated the increases in aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis and valine, leucine, and isoleucine biosynthesis. Our findings using amino acid metabolomics indicate that hyperglycemia stimulates biosynthetic pathways in T1D. SGLT2 inhibition may attenuate the increase in biosynthetic pathways to optimize kidney energy metabolism.

perspectiva interseccional de marcadores sociais na hierarquia sacerdotal da igreja messiânica mundial do brasil nas décadas de 1970 e 1980
Authors: Magalhães Breno Corrêa
Published: November 2023

Presentes no Brasil há cerca de 70 anos, as Novas Religiões Japonesas (NRJ) viveram seu período de maior crescimento nas décadas de 1970 e 1980. A partir do estudo da trajetória e experiência de três sacerdotes da Igreja Messiânica Mundial do Brasil (IMMB) nas referidas décadas, no presente artigo apresento uma abordagem interseccional de marcadores de sociais na hierarquia sacerdotal desta religião. A abordagem aqui proposta parte da compreensão do conceito de hierarquia e ordem como elemento fundamental de análise, uma vez que, no seio religioso valores socioculturais são revestidas por agentes religiosos e leigos (fiéis) de um valor transcende. Creio que deste modo, o dogmatismo do sagrado, sem que seus preceitos possam ser colocados à prova, naturaliza desigualdades que tem origem histórica e culturalmente construidas.
Taromancia, o que sabemos?

Published: November 2023

Por meio da observação participativa em perspectiva insider, hipotetizou-se existirem estereótipos vindo do imaginário popular sobre a taromancia: o de supostamente ser uma prática esotérico-mediúnica que pressupõe relação direta do praticante, além das cartas, com o além-mundo. Foi feita uma coleta de dados entre 03 de janeiro e 01º de fevereiro de 2021, por meio de questionários objetivos para o público em geral e para profissionais do tarô, a fim de se diagnosticar se e quais mudanças ocorreram no início do século vigente. Como a pesquisadora é, também, uma insider, nosso pressuposto foi o de que, apesar dos estereótipos remanescentes da época colonial, esteja acontecendo um processo de secularização da profissão. Procuramos contribuir para a pesquisa acadêmica sobre o tema a partir da produção de conhecimento auxiliar no reposicionamento social da taromancia do século XXI.

Teachers in learning have not used LKPD which they designed themselves correctly. Meanwhile, the demands of the curriculum require the teacher to be only one source of learning, because the teacher acts as a facilitator. This service will help overcome the problem of low professional and pedagogic competence of junior high school teachers, especially in designing and using worksheets as learning resources in learning. The method used is training with discussion techniques, question and answer, simulations, and assignments. The training subjects were 25 junior high school teachers in Bandar Lampung City. The instruments used were observation, tests and structured interviews. The success of the service was analyzed descriptively by percentage. After the training, there was a good increase in 1) the training process went well and enthusiastically, (2) there was an increase in the knowledge and skills aspects of breastfeeding LKPD. The results of the pre-test conducted before the training for all indicators of knowledge and skills were in the pretty good category. The results of the post test, there is only 1 indicator in the good category, namely the LKPD concept, and other indicators are in the very good category. For the skill aspect, there is 1 indicator in the good category, namely drawing arrangement, and the other indicators are in the very good category.
