Analisis Prinsip Desain Logo PAL TV Dalam Perspektif Budaya Digital
Authors: Patriansah Mukhsin , Dion Keni
Published: April 2024

Palembang Televisi (PALTV) merupakan salah satu stasiun televisi pertama yang ada di kota Palembang dan Sumatera Selatan. PALTV sudah berdiri selama kurang lebih 18 tahun, tepatnya pada tanggal 9 September 2005. Menurut sumber-sumber yang penulis tinjau, sejauh ini belum ada perubahan dari logo PALTV, mulai dari awal berdirinya pada tahun 2005 hingga saat ini masih menggunakan logo yang sama. Maka dari itu, PALTV sebagai stasiun televisi pertama di Sumatera Selatan dan Kota Palembang sudah seharusnya melakukan rebranding agar bisa memposisikan diri dengan kebutuhan dan perkembangan zaman, terutama pada aspek budaya digital saat ini. Masalah utama yang dibahas dalam penelitian ini adalah bagaimana menganalisis desain logo PAL TV berdasarkan prinsip-prinsip desain logo yang sederhana atau simple, timeless, proporsional dan relevan. Hasil penelitian ini dapat dilihat bahwa secara visual logo PALTV belum sepenuhnya merepresentasikan budaya digital dengan perkembangan teknologi informasi dan komunikasi. Maka dari itu diperlukan suatu upaya rebranding untuk menerapkan prinsip-prinsip desain logo yang sederhana atau simple, timeless, proporsional dan relevan, sehingga berdampak pada citra visual yang mampu menimbulkan sugesti dan berkesan bagi para pemirsanya, serta relevan dengan kondisi dan budaya masyarakatnya.

Pengembangan Paham Moderasi Beragama di Pondok Pesantren Al-Ikhlas Ujung Kabupaten Bone
Authors: Arake Lukman , Makkarateng Ma'adul Yaqien
Published: April 2024

Moderate attitudes in understanding and practicing religious teachings are highly necessary to be instilled in every Muslim, as they lead to the avoidance of conflicts with people from different beliefs. Islamic teachings about moderation in worship, as written in the Qur'an and Hadith, imply the principles of justice and balance in practicing religion. These principles are the essence of Islamic teachings that emphasize the "wasathiyah" or moderate approach in adhering to religious doctrines. Providing an understanding of religious moderation must be integrated into the curriculum of an Educational Institution. Hence, this research focuses on Islamic boarding schools (pondok pesantren) as the target of the study, as they are one of the Religious Educational Institutions in Indonesia. By employing the Community Based Research method and using a quantitative approach in data analysis, this study concludes that the development of the understanding of religious moderation in Pondok Pesantren Al-Ikhlas Ujung, Bone Regency, has shown improvement. The researcher's efforts in this development involved conducting seminars/dialogues and distributing books containing speeches related to the theme of religious moderation.Keywords : Religious Moderation, Islamic Boarding School, Tolerance, Anti-Violence
INTEGRASI MODERASI BERAGAMA SEBAGAI HIDDEN CURRICULUM DALAM PENGEMBANGAN KURIKULUM DI PERGURUAN TINGGI AGAMA
Authors: Adi HR Sabri
Published: April 2024

This research is motivated by the development of exclusivism, extremism, and radicalism, as well as the decline of religious harmony in society, especially in religious higher education. The focus of this paper is to determine the urgency of religious moderation as a hidden curriculum in religious higher education, as well as to find a model of integrating religious moderation as a hidden curriculum in curriculum development. This research is a literature review, and data is collected through document analysis, both in soft copy and written form, and analyzed qualitatively. The results show that radical ideologies emerge in an organized manner and are related to certain politics, social, and cultural aspects. Therefore, it is urgent to develop the value of religious moderation as a hidden curriculum and to make efforts to curb the development of radical ideologies in religious higher education. There are two models that can be operationalized in religious higher education. First, religious moderation as a hidden value in curriculum development using a correlated curriculum organization. Second, religious moderation as a hidden curriculum is derived from CPL to CPMK. The attitude achievements formulated in the regulations of the Minister of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia No. 3 of 2020 are translated more specifically into CPMK, thus allowing the value of religious moderation to be included as CPMK.

The article examines the formation of a future specialist's readiness for professional activity in the process of studying at a higher education institution. The influence of the competence approach on the cognitive and activity organization of the educational process is clarified. The relationship between the competency-based approach in education and the personally-oriented and activity-oriented approaches to learning is analyzed, since, on the one hand, it concerns the student's personality, and on the other hand, it can be implemented and verified only in the process of a specific student performing a certain set of actions. The importance of using active learning methods in a higher education institution for the purpose of forming professional and personal competencies, awareness of problem situations, fighting motives, revaluation of values and their use in specific real situations during the study of the main components of professional training is considered. It is emphasized that the choice of values significant for the subject is carried out in accordance with his value competencies and is made under the influence of the sociocultural experience of the individual. It is emphasized that values are the objective basis of the formation of value competences and are learned only under the condition of acceptance by the individual, compliance of needs and interests with value competences, that is, if the individual identifies himself with them, reveals a personal meaning in them. An analysis of the respondents’ value orientations was carried out. It is emphasized that values are motivating competences, certain directing and accelerating motives of human behavior, activity, in particular professional. It is highlighted that providing a professional direction to the life aspirations and behavioral motives of a higher education seeker is an important moment in the formation of the personality of a future Polish specialist, the formation of stable life views, and professional beliefs.

The Relationship Between Blinding Integrity and Treatment Efficacy in Randomised-Controlled Trials in Patients with Anxiety Disorders: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Authors: Haq Ruqayyah , Molteni Laura , Huneke Nathan T M
Published: April 2024

Background: Blinding of patients and assessors is thought to minimise expectancy effects and biases in double-blind randomised-controlled trials (RCT’s). However, whether blinding integrity should be assessed and reported remains debated. Furthermore, it is unknown whether blinding failure influences the outcome of RCT’s in anxiety disorders. We aimed to understand whether blinding integrity is assessed and reported in anxiolytic RCT’s. A secondary aim was to explore whether blinding integrity is associated with anxiolytic treatment efficacy.Methods: We systematically searched for placebo-controlled randomised trials in adults with generalised and social anxiety disorders, and in panic disorder, from 1980 to present day. We extracted data regarding blinding integrity and treatment efficacy. Where assessments of blinding integrity were not reported, attempts were made to acquire them from authors. Where possible, we subsequently calculated Bang’s Blinding Index, and assessed the association between blinding integrity and effect size of treatment compared with placebo through meta-regression.Results: Of the 248 RCT’s that met inclusion criteria, we were able to obtain assessments of blinding integrity from nine (3.63%). Overall, blinding failed in five of these trials (55.56%), but blinding was intact in 80% of placebo arms. We found a significant association between reduced blinding integrity among assessors and increased treatment effect size (beta’s < -6.50, p’s < 0.001), but this analysis involved only four studies. In patients, we saw a non-significant trend where reduced blinding integrity in the placebo groups was associated with increased treatment efficacy, which was not present in active medication arms.Conclusions: Consistent with work in other psychiatric disorders, blinding integrity is rarely reported in anxiolytic RCT’s. Where it is reported, blinding appears to often fail. We found signals that suggest unblinding of clinician assessors and of patients in placebo arms might be associated with larger treatment effect sizes. These analyses were based on limited data. We recommend that data regarding blinding integrity, along with the reasons patients and assessors offer for their beliefs regarding group allocation, are systematically collected in RCT’s of anxiolytic treatments.
INSIGHTS INTO THE NATURAL AND CULTURAL HISTORY OF TYPHA ORIENTALIS (RAUPŌ) IN AOTEAROA NEW ZEALAND

A new multi-proxy paleo database for lake ecosystem and catchment change in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) points to the potential resource and ecosystem service roles of Typha orientalis (raupō). In the context of chronic wetland degradation in Aotearoa New Zealand over the past century, this iconic yet enigmatic wetland plant can be viewed, alternately, as an invasive threat; a valuable cultural and economic resource; and a natural, indigenous agent for bioremediation. Our investigation reconstructs the history of raupō over the past ~1000 years, based on 92 new pollen records generated from lake sites across ANZ. At almost every site where raupō is present today, its expansion is promoted to varying extents during periods of human activity and at 87% of sites investigated, raupō shows its maximum palynological abundance post human arrival. Multiple patterns of response over time point to a range of hydrological, trophic, and cultural scenarios that are conducive for raupō expansion, raising prospects for its potential role in mitigating the ecological impacts of disturbance. Raupō expansion, promoted by anthropogenic forest clearances and associated sediment and nutrient flux, would in turn have provided new opportunities for its use as a valuable food and material resource, prompting further questions as to the extent it was deliberately managed by indigenous populations. As both a benefactor from, and provider for, expanding populations, raupō may be regarded as a human associate in ANZ prehistory. As well as being indigenous to ANZ, T. orientalis also occurs naturally in Australia and east Asia and shares the intrinsic ecological and morphological attributes of the ~40 species or hybrids of Typha that span most of the planet. This work therefore may encourage wider application of the genus as a biocultural asset informed from its local natural history.

Published: April 2024

Vaname shrimp is one of Indonesia's leading export species and is widely cultivated. The main problem in vaname shrimp pond cultivation is the attack of shrimp diseases caused by bacteria or viruses. This study aims to isolate and identify lactic acid bacteria (BAL) from vaname shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) and test their antagonism against pathogenic bacteria. The research was conducted from February to April 2023. The method used in this study is a survey method. Sampling was conducted at the vaname shrimp pond of the Fisheries Service Task Unit (UPT), Tanjung Punak Village, Rupat Utara District, Bengkalis Regency, Riau. The method used in this research was a survey method. BAL was isolated using MRS Agar + CaCO3 media. The Kirby-Bauer method was used to test bacterial antagonism against pathogenic bacteria. Based on the identification of seven isolates, it was found that only four isolates were positively identified as LAB bacteria, namely 47D, 54T1, 73DB1, and 73BD2. The results of the antagonism test against pathogenic bacteria showed that all BAL isolates could not suppress the growth of E. coli bacteria. However, these isolates suppressed the growth of A. hydrophila bacteria, with the widest inhibition zone diameter on isolate 54T1 (4.2 mm). On Vibrio sp. bacteria, the widest inhibition zone of BAL was on isolate 73DB1 (6 mm). These results indicate that the antibacterial activity produced by BAL is still relatively weak

African-American Cultural Expression: The Defiance of Black Aesthetics
Authors: Neupane Khagendra
Published: April 2024

This research delves into the transformative realm of Black Aesthetics as a profound and resilient cultural resistance strategy employed by African-Americans. In a historical context marked by the degradation of the genuine image of African-Americans through Western perspectives, Black Aesthetics emerges as a dynamic force challenging stereotypes and reclaiming agency over cultural narratives. The study explores the foundational influences of key socio-political movements, namely the Harlem Renaissance, the Black Power Movement, and the Civil Rights Movement, in shaping and catalyzing the development of Black Aesthetics. During the 1920s, the Harlem Renaissance served as a crucible for cultural revitalization amid the multifaceted struggles faced by African-Americans. Fueled by a desire to break free from racial stereotypes, this movement laid the groundwork for the emergence of Black Aesthetics as a tool for empowerment and self-expression. The subsequent impact of the Black Power Movement and the Civil Rights Movement on Black Aesthetics is examined, revealing how these movements contested prevailing Western perspectives and sought to redefine the narrative surrounding African-Americans. The Black Power Movement, emphasizing self-determination and autonomy, stood in stark contrast to the assimilations goals of the Civil Rights Movement, collectively contributing to the nuanced evolution of Black Aesthetics. Through an interdisciplinary lens, this research navigates the intersection of art, ideas, and socio-political dynamics, elucidating how Black Aesthetics serves as a cultural resistance mechanism. It explores the multifaceted dimensions of this resistance, including the creation of alternative narratives, the celebration of cultural identity, and the reclamation of dignity. Ultimately, this research contributes to a comprehensive understanding of Black Aesthetics as a transformative force in cultural resistance, shedding light on its historical roots, its evolution through significant movements, and its enduring impact on reshaping the narrative of African-American identity.

Authors: Thapa Yogendra , Khatri Bishnu Bahadur
Published: April 2024

During the pandemic of COVID-19 like in other educational institutions, Tribhuvan University also shifted its instructional mode from face-to-face to online mode. However, limited access and proficiency to technology, receiving timely feedback and communication, working familiarity, and distance among colleagues, teachers and faculties are the main challenging factors of effective online class participation. With this consideration, this paper aimed to identify the effectiveness of online instruction on class participation of Post-Graduate students at Tribhuvan University. In this study, the correlation research design was applied within the positivist philosophical background. From the 5948 population of this study, who participated in the online mode of instruction during the pandemic period, four hundred students were randomly assigned. Semi[1]structured questionnaires are administered through self reporting method. The logistic regression was applied to identify the relationship between classroom effectiveness through online instruction. The result shows those students' learning facilities, technical skills, satisfaction, teachers’ support, and feedback systems have a significantly better effect on online class participation. Unexpectedly students with little support from teachers, no clear direction for work, and a neutral perception than a good perception have applied better e-resources. Technological skills, e-materials, and good perception have not acquired satisfactory results in online instruction. This study concludes that online instruction has not significantly notable effects on students’ class participation. These findings could be considered while making the training package interventions indented to transform basic skills, supportive and related behaviour.

Authors: Cabrera Cusi Mariet Rosnaida , Berghout Abdelaziz
Published: April 2024

This study attempts to use Big Data Analytic Techniques to investigate the views of Millennial Muslims on the effectiveness of scholars/preachers on cyber-Islam. Two eminent scholars, Bilal Philips, and Mufti Menk have been chosen for this purpose. It examines the changing expressions and manifestations of Islam because of historical epochs and contexts. For example, the modern world is in its "post-postmodernist" stage and context, which necessitates a rethinking of previous debates and discourses on Islam. The Millennial Age is discussed, as well as its characteristics and their implications for Muslim expression of Islam. Cyber-Islam is the study of the intersection of Islam and online platforms. There is a review of academic literature on Bilal Philips and Mufti Menk. This study's methodology is to incorporate data mining methods to create a framework that can be used effectively to analyze the Twitter content and followers of Bilal Philips and Mufti Menk from an Islamic perspective. The study reveals various facts about Millennial Muslims as well as the way Islamic knowledge is communicated via social media. The study concludes that combining social media studies with Islamic studies can provide a more complete picture of contemporary Muslims and their online engagement with Islam.

Authors: Husaini Zuhri Hilmi , Huda Miftachul
Published: April 2024

The inability of pesantren in the 21st-century era of knowledge and technology to maintain its classical madrasah system raises significant questions. Therefore, understanding how Madrasah Hidayatul Mubtadiin (MHM) in Lirboyo, Kediri City, as one of the Salafiyah Islamic Boarding Schools, adapts to its environment through the implementation of Peter Senge's five learning organization (LO) disciplines is crucial. This research adopts a qualitative approach, employing a case study methodology. Data were gathered through observations, interviews, and documentation. The findings indicate that the implementation of LO at MHM Lirboyo Madrasah aligns well with the five disciplines of a learning organization. These include: 1) Personal mastery among teachers is demonstrated through self-reflection, exemplary behavior, diligence, and consistency in adhering to institutional rules. 2) Mental models cultivated through tolerant behavior, respect, awareness of the importance of learning, high motivation for learning, and practicing akhlakul karimah (noble character). 3) Shared vision fostered through a commitment to obeying the Kiai (religious leaders), openness, sharing of vision, and socialization of programs. 4) Team learning is facilitated through open discussions and group dialogue. 5) System thinking is promoted through the involvement of administrators, coordinated work efforts, and mutual support. This research contrasts negative assessments of pesantren, which often characterize them as rural Islamic social structures entrenched in a conservative culture, as articulated by Clifford Geertz, Ahmad Syafi'i Ma'arif, and Fuad Amsyari.

Authors: BR Kiran Kumar , Viswanathan Bhaskar , Reddy Swathi
Published: April 2024

Background: Carcinoma cervix is the major cause of death from gynecological malignancies. Isolated paraaortic lymph node metastasis detected on the initial diagnosis of cervical cancers could be addressed via extended paraaortic lymph node irradiation. Serum Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is useful in detecting early Para aortic lymph node (PALN). Materials and Methods: Fifty patients of histologically proven squamous cell carcinoma of cervix have been recruited into the study. We assessed pelvic and Para aortic lymph node status via CT or MRI scans. Serum CEA ranges had been evaluated in all from stage I to IV before starting the treatment.Results: We observed that high pretreatment CEA values were associated with the pelvic and paraaortic lymph node metastasis 65.2% of the patients with high pretreatment CEA value had PALN metastasis (p=0.002). 47.8% of the patients with high CEA had pelvic lymph nodal metastasis (p=0.077) and 70% of the patients with high pretreatment CEA had both Pelvic and PALN metastasis which was statistically significant (p=0.020).Conclusion: Carcinoembryonic antigen levels should help to prognosticate the Carcinoma Cervix patients and predict the presence of Para-aortic and Pelvic lymph nodes. This may be effective tool for detecting early failures in patients with Carcinoma Cervix

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the risk of malnutrition in cancer chemotherapy patients and identify the associated factors. Materials and Methods: It is a cross-sectional study. Purposive sampling was used to collect data from a tertiary care cancer centre. The study collected data from 101 participants and used a malnutrition screening tool (MST) to assess the risk of malnutrition. Results: The majority of participants in the study were female (61.4%) and in the 3rd or 4th stage of cancer (57.4% and 41.6%, respectively). Of the participants, 63.4% experienced weight loss without trying chemotherapy, and 60.4% were at risk for malnutrition. Cancer stage was associated with malnutrition risk, but other clinical variables were not. Conclusion: Malnutrition is a significant issue among cancer chemotherapy patients in the study’s population. The findings of this study can be used to develop interventions to prevent and manage malnutrition in patients with cancer and improve the effectiveness of cancer treatment in the Indian population.

Effective lubrication between rubbing surfaces is required to reduce friction and wear. Conventional lube oils traditionally contain a package of additives that significantly improve their tribological properties. Antiwear and load-carrying additives improve boundary lubrication and reduce wear of the rubbing surfaces due to the formation of quasi-liquid crystalline layers on them [1]. Such structured layers with molecular ordering determine the tribological characteristics of the friction units

The problem of increasing of combustion efficiency for a heat engine (diesel, gas turbine, etc.) has been solved for about a century, because economic, power and environmental indicators depend on it. In addition, which is no less important in relation to the stated indicators, the efficiency of combustion and the rate of fuel burnout in the specified coordinates at the designated time interval in the combustion chamber determine strict requirements for the used fuels in terms of thermophysical parameters that affect atomization, evaporation, and mixing with oxidizer . Hence, there are restrictions on the use of alternative fuels for heat engines, such as gas condensate, etc.

На сучасному морському судні використовується велика кількість електричних двигунів різних видів: щіткових постійного струму, одно- та багатофазних асинхронних, синхронних різного типу, вентильноіндукторних (Switched Reluctance Motor – SRM), лінійних тощо, які виконують різноманітні технологічні функції і завдання. Все частіше електричний двигун є ефективною заміною теплового двигуна у рушійному комплексі суден. Наприклад, для автономних (безпілотних) морських суден різного типу і призначення набагато простіше забезпечити енергоефективне керування електричним двигуном [1, 2], у порівнянні із керуванням тепловим двигуном. Недостатність апробованих методів керування безщітковими двигунами, недосконалість існуючих методів синтезу, що забезпечують високу ефективність синтезованих систем керування продуктивністю (найчастіше – швидкістю і моментом) суднових машин і механізмів, не дозволяють безщітковим двигунам повністю замінити щіткові та асинхронні електричні двигуни для більшості суднових технічних систем і комплексів, для систем електроруху суден

Технічна експлуатація суднових енергетичних установок та їх головних елементів – суднових дизелів повинна виконуватися з забезпеченням вимог до всіх складових надійності: безвідмовності, довговічності, ремонтопридатності та збереження [1-3]. Надійність складних технічних систем, до яких належать суднові дизелі, є системною категорією та належить до загальносистемних властивостей. Тому надійність суднових дизелів як системна категорія має оцінюватися комплексними показниками, що характеризує ефективність їх функціонування на протязі часу, а комплекс забезпечення надійності, своєю чергою, має розглядатися як підсистема суднового дизеля. У такому разі для оцінки ефективності комплексів забезпечення надійності суднових дизелів необхідно розглядати як приватні критерії ефективності (приватні показники надійності), що характеризують локальні експлуатаційні властивості дизелів, також і основні критерії ефективності (основні показники надійності), що характеризують інтегральні експлуатаційні властивості дизелів – ступінь впливу комплексу забезпечення надійності на загальну ефективність функціонування дизеля

Експлуатація пропульсивних комплексів засобів водного транспорту (морських та річкових пасажирських, транспортних та військових суден) пов’язана з ризиком виникнення аварійних ситуацій підставою яких можуть бути неочікувані зміни умов роботи суднового обладнання, гідрометеорологічної та навігаційної обстановки, а також «людський» фактор. При цьому подібні ситуації виникають та розвіваються в відкритому морі, в прибережних акваторіях та акваторіях морських портів, а також під час завершення ремонтних робіт, що виконуються на судноремонтних заводах та плавучих доках [
