Authors: Farhan Muhammad Rafiq , Alwi Ratna Surya , Harahap Mahyuni , Purwandari Vivi
Published: February 2024

We simulated 17 molecules classified as Naphthoquinones derivatives with the Enzyme Elastase to observe data regarding energies produced after bonding. These 17 Molecules were Eleutherin, Isoeleutherin, Elacanacin, Eleutherinone, Eleutherol A, Eleutherol B, Eleutherol C, Eleuthinones B, Eleuthinones C, Eleutherine A, Eleutherine B, Eleutherine C, Eleutherine D, Eleutherine E, Eleutherine F, Eleutherine G, Eleucanainones A. To prepare the ligand and protein for docking, we used the Discovery Studio application. For the molecular docking itself, we used the Pyrx application. Regarding interpreting the result, first, we chose the lowest rmsd/ub or rmsd/lb, and then we analyzed the energy result in which the lowest rmsd occurred. The docking results data indicated that all the ligand-enzyme bonding had negative binding affinity energy, but Eleucanainones A produced the lowest energy (Binding Affinity -7.7, mode 1, Rmsd/ub 1.787, Rmsd/lb 3.54), meaning it bound most easily with the enzyme Elastase. This study was only an initial or foundational step and further studies were highly needed for the development of the correlation between the ligands and the enzyme mentioned above.

In the learning preparation process, the school or foundation needs to prepare learning activities at school. Things that must be prepared are such as adequate school facilities, then the teacher's method of teaching. The importance of having school facilities for the convenience of students in the learning process, in this case it is necessary to develop existing facilities at the school. For the learning process, there is also a need for teacher supervision of children in learning and outside the classroom, because teacher supervision of children is needed by students in their activities while at school. Supervision can be interpreted as a process of monitoring activities to ensure that all organizational operations are carried out as intended and the process of correcting deviations that will hinder the achievement of objectives. For teachers, absence from teaching according to schedule is sometimes unavoidable, considering that one time they had a sudden need at the same time so they did not teach. However, this becomes unnatural if the absence or delay of teaching in class always and frequently occurs. This has a negative impact on the learning process. First, students become disillusioned, and this can reduce their learning motivation. Students get a bad example of discipline. Second, teachers who teach earnestly feel that their efforts are futile and at the same time disappointed. What they built was broken by their professional colleagues. Not to mention, if a teacher who is disciplined in teaching earns the same income as a teacher who rarely teaches in class. A teacher can be called a professional if he has 4 (four) competencies, namely pedagogical competence, professional competence, personality competence, and social competence. The researcher uses qualitative data analysis techniques, because this study uses many words instead of numbers. Therefore, we use qualitative data analysis techniques.

Kompos adalah produk mikrobia yang mengubah bahan organik dan menghasilkan kompos dengan nisbah C/N yang rendah. Mengaktifkan kegiatan mikrobia untuk mempercepat proses dekomposisi bahan organik dikenal sebagai pengomposan. Di sana ada bakteri, jamur, dan jasad renik lainnya. Bahan baku kompos ini terdiri dari jerami, sampah kota, limbah pertanian, kotoran hewan dan ternak, serta sampah rumah tangga. Kompos membantu memperbaiki struktur tanah dan menyediakan zat makanan yang diperlukan tumbuhan. Dengan banyaknya bahan baku, terutama sampah perkotaan, dan teknologi pengomposan yang tepat, kompos adalah alternatif pengolahan limbah padat organik yang dapat digunakan di Indonesia. Proses pengomposan akan menghasilkan panas karena aktivitas mikroba, yang terkait erat dengan kelengasan. Kelembaban yang cukup, baik basah maupun kering, sangat memengaruhi aktivitas dan kehidupan mikrobia. Aerasi timbunan terkait erat dengan kelengasan. Bakteri yang terlalu anaerob mati atau terhambat pertumbuhannya karena aerasi. Disarankan agar temperatur tidak terlalu tinggi (60oC). Sebagian besar, proses pengomposan menghasilkan asam-asam organik, yang mengakibatkan penurunan pH, efek netralisasi kemasaman, dan neutralisasi kemasaman, yang sering dilakukan dengan membuat bahan pengapuran. Studi tentang limbah dari manajemen limbah di pusat pengelolaan limbah dan tempat penghapusan limbah dapat membantu mengurangi limbah ekonomi dan menyediakan sumber daya yang diperlukan untuk pengurusan limbah, dengan demikian mempromosikan kesehatan masyarakat dan lingkungan.
A note on the normality assumption for Bayesian models of constraint in behavioral individual differences
Authors: Faulkenberry Thomas
Published: February 2024

To investigate the structure of individual differences in performance on behavioral tasks, Haaf and Rouder (2017) developed a class of hierarchical Bayesian mixed models with varying levels of constraint on the individual effects. The models are then compared via Bayes factors, telling us which model best predicts the observed data. One common criticism of their method is that the observed data are assumed to be drawn from a normal distribution. However, for most cognitive tasks, the primary measure of performance is a response time, the distribution of which is well known not to be normal. In this paper, I investigate the assumption of normality for two datasets in numerical cognition. Specifically, I show that using a shifted lognormal model for the response times does not change the overall pattern of inference. Further, since the model-estimated effects are now on a logarithmic scale, the interpretation of the modeling becomes more difficult, particularly because the estimated effect is now multiplicative rather than additive. As a result, I recommend that even though response times are not normally distributed in general, the simplification afforded by the Haaf and Rouder's approach provides a pragmatic approach to modeling individual differences in behavioral tasks.
Complementary results on sex-, age-, and cause-specific mortality in EU countries obtained by SYR symbolic data analysis software
Authors: Lotrič Dolinar Aleša , Afonso Filipe , Korenjak-Černe Simona , Diday Edwin
Published: February 2024

Different mortality patterns across countries require different health and demographic policies. Positioning of the countries according to their characteristic mortality pattern can help allocate scarce resources appropriately. We use symbolic data analysis within SYR software to analyse 28 European Union countries' sex-, age-, and cause-specific mortality in 2015. There are two main advantages for using symbolic analysis: (i) it permits more transparent and informative data descriptions along with contextual relations, and (ii) advanced methods adapted for complex data representations can be employed to analyse such data, taking contextual relations into account. Clustering results based on symbolic data analysis show that groups of countries are strongly related to the geographical position of countries, with a clear east–west cut on the first-level partition and with an even more geographically consistent lower-level partition compared to the classical clustering result. Relations between the obtained clusters of countries and their external social and health indicators are well pronounced. We also identify the mortality rates as symbolic variables that discriminate the most between individual countries as well as between the resulting clusters. Knowledge of a country's mortality pattern and its position among comparable countries is valuable information for health and demographic policymakers and can be exploited to exchange good practices.

Published: February 2024

If policy analysis in education management is considered as a whole, it can be divided into parts and decomposed to understand this whole, and parts or sections are examined and details are revealed, so that the activity of having an idea about the whole can be called education policy analysis. The starting point of policy analysis in the educational process is to conceptualize the problem in order to achieve the desired goals and facilitate the determination of appropriate systems. This stage is generally related to policy problems and policy options. It is important to pay attention to the focus of policy areas in content creation, to ensure consensus to a large extent and to be meticulous on sensitive issues. In the analyses, the problem areas can be reviewed according to fairness, equality, effectiveness and ineffectiveness, quality or quantity, impact on the economy and similar issues. Policy analysis is partly descriptive. Because policy analysis is based on social and behavioral sciences that make claims about the consequences and causes of policy. But it is also normative. Normative, economic and decision analysis are also closely related to other branches of social and political philosophy and morality in order to verify and evaluate the moral values of politics and claims about expectations. This normative aspect of policy analysis is necessary. Because political knowledge allows achieving the desired results and is based on preferred forms of behavior, value judgments and processes based on morality. A policy problem is an unrealized value or, with it, the opportunity for defined development that can be achieved through public action. The knowledge that will solve the problem requires knowledge about the previous conditions of the problem (such as school safety or standard of living) as well as knowledge about the values of success that lead to the solution of the problem. Knowledge about policy problems plays a critical role in policy analysis. Because the path of the identified problem requires searching for appropriate solutions. Insufficient or incorrect information can lead to a very important error. Key Words: National Education, Education Management, Public Policy, Policy Analysis

Strategy formulation in education examines how actors prepare alternatives, sets out some tools for use in this process, and explains why some strategy alternatives have been brought up or dropped from the agenda. In this context, it is related to other activities such as creating an agenda, identifying problems, implementing and establishing strategy coalitions. However, the original side of the strategy formulation is the focus on the micro-level of public strategies. Why some strategy tools and trends are used, the assumptions that are taken into account about the problems and related parties when using these tools, and their resources are also included in the process. As important as it is to explain the conditions under which the formulation of structuring educational strategies is shaped, it is also necessary to take into account economic, social, geographical, historical, and cultural limitations in making strategies. It is important to take into account the economic situation of the country when making educational strategies. For a successful strategy formulation, strategists need to analyze the economic challenges they will face in the coming years well and correctly identify the challenges that need to be dealt with. The social environment covers the entire life of people as individuals and groups. Due to social relations and interactions, there are differences in religion, philosophical belief, sect, values and thoughts among people in society. Dec. These differences are the source of the formation of other institutions in civil society. Within this framework, strategy makers have to develop strategies by analyzing the social structure of the country well. Key Words: Education, Educational Strategy, Configuration, Method
Osmanlı’dan Günümüze Prens Sabahattin, Turgut Özal ve Adem-i Merkeziyetçi Yönetim Anlayışına Dair Sosyo-politik Bir İnceleme
Authors: ATEŞ Hakan
Published: February 2024

Although it has been a long time since the presidential elections in our country, the society has not reached an environment of peace. In the past years, different management approaches have been faced with problems that disturbed the peace. The biggest mistake made in our country is to try to change the result regardless of the cause. In the Ottoman period, when the constitutional monarchy was introduced, actions were taken without considering whether the conjuncture in the society and the country was appropriate or not, and the change made did not yield the desired result. The same series of mistakes has continued regularly until today. Prince Sabahattin in the Ottoman period and Turgut Özal in the Republican period argued that the primary point that needed to be changed in society was not the top cadre of the administration or who would aspire to governance, but the mentality of the society and they tried to take some actions in order to make this change. However, since the steps taken for these actions were contrary to the interests of the bureaucrats and administrators who pursued their own interests in their periods, neither of them could realize their desire to bring people to individuality in the economic field and freedom in political life. In this study, firstly, the concepts of "enterprise-personality" and "decentralization" advocated by Prince Sabahattin will be examined and an introduction to the reflections of these concepts on Turgut Özal will be attempted.

New Student Admission (PMB) is an important stage in the continuity of education in an educational institution. The Faculty of Science and Informatics (FSI) at Jenderal Achmad Yani University (UNJANI) provides information services about PMB to prospective students and parents/guardians of prospective students but is still inefficient, so it is necessary to improve PMB information services by using Chatbots as a solution that is able to serve questions effectively and consistent. This study aims to develop a PMB information Chatbot system for FSI using the FastText and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) methods. Several methods have been used in Chatbot development research, such as Term Frequency–Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF), Bag of Words (BoW), and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). However, these studies still have certain limitations, such as the inability to grasp the meaning of words and difficulties in handling certain inputs. In this study, the text classification model uses the FastText method as the stage for representing words in vector form, then combined with several pre-processing methods (Tokenization & Casefolding) and LSTM for the classification stage. Then put it into the Chatbot component according to the architecture that was made. In testing, the Black Box Testing method is used to ensure the functionality of the Chatbot system. The test results show that the Chatbot system is able to understand the topic of questions asked by users properly. The interaction between users and Chatbots also runs smoothly, resulting in appropriate and informative responses. The results of this study are expected to be an effective and consistent solution for providing information about PMB to prospective students and parents/guardians of prospective students at FSI.

This paper discusses the development of desktop applications for traceability systems. The application was developed to facilitate data recording and tracking in an electronics manufacturing company's storage process of Printed Circuit Board (PCB) products. The application is developed using the Visual Basic language and Microsoft Excel databases. Additionally, the application is integrated with a barcode scanner to simplify the data entry process from PCBs and employee ID cards. Through the trial process conducted on the developed application, it has generally functioned in accordance with the development goals. Program control validation has been tested through several application access attempts from users registered as operators and administrators. The application has successfully recorded data from inbound and outbound processes, demonstrating storage and tracking functionality. Furthermore, the application has displayed the actual status data of the PCBs present in the warehouse. In terms of user satisfaction, seven users stated that this application was effective and efficient compared to the manual data recording process previously used by the company. This result was obtained from a questionnaire after the application was implemented in the company warehouse.

Mental health is a significant concern in society today, particularly for Generation Z, who are vulnerable to experiencing mental health problems that can disrupt daily productivity. The influence of working hours also contributes to the mental health of this generation. To assess public opinion on this issue, sentiment analysis is needed on social media, especially twitter. This research uses the Gaussian Naïve Bayes algorithm and Support Vector Machine with various stemming algorithms such as Nazief-Adriani, Arifin Setiono, and Sastrawi. The sentiment analysis method is used to assess positive, negative, and neutral sentiment in related tweets. The research results show that the Sastrawi stemming algorithm on the Gaussian Naïve Bayes model achieves 84% precision, 84% recall, and 84% f1-score, with 84% accuracy. Meanwhile, Support Vector Machine achieved 91% precision, 90% recall, 90% f1-score, and 91% accuracy. The Nazief-Adriani stemming algorithm on the Gaussian Naïve Bayes model has 80% precision, 80% recall, and 80% f1-score, with 80% accuracy. Meanwhile, on the Support Vector Machine, precision is 87%, recall is 85%, f1-score is 86%, and accuracy is 85%. Arifin Setiono's stemming algorithm on the Gaussian Naïve Bayes model achieved 81% precision, 81% recall, 81% f1-score, with 82% accuracy, while on Support Vector Machine, 88% precision, 86% recall, 86% f1-score, with 86% accuracy. Public opinion was recorded as 33% positive, 9% neutral, and 58% negative. This research aims to increase public awareness of the importance of mental health, especially regarding the influence of working hours, to create a healthy work environment for Generation Z and society in general, as well as improving the quality of mental health.

Serious games have become potential tools for education due to their advantage of giving a fun experience to the learner. Therefore, game experience is a fundamental element in serious game design. The game experience is mainly produced by the game activity, such as a quest or mission.  However, in many serious games, the game activities do not have a clear design and concept, resulting in a poor playing experience which produce poor understanding of the material. Appreciative Game is a game that is based on Appreciative Learning concept. Appreciative Learning concepts could be used to design game activities. Appreciative Learning consists of four main stages. The stages are discovery, dream, design, and destiny. These four stages lay down the foundation of serious game activity. This study uses the Finite State Machine to produce intelligent agents in order to develop more dynamic game activity to enhance the game experience.  We developed a 3D game called Warik the Adventurer as the testbed for this research. The game is about the cultural diversity in Indonesia. The game Experience Questionnaire (GEQ) is used to evaluate the player experience. The GEQ resulted in an acceptable score of 3 out of 5.
Subsector Outlook Research in Ethiopia: The Case of Hides and Skins Production, and Marketing
Authors: Mussema Rehima
Published: February 2024

Ethiopia is the 5th largest livestock producer in the world and ranks first in Africa and the country is home to millions of livestock population that has the potential to produce hides and skins. the study aimed to analyze the status and outlook of hides and skins (HSs) production and marketing in Ethiopia. The study used secondary data and triangulated using KII and FGD, and conducted analysis using different forecasting techniques. Hides production increased by 4.94% annually between 2005/06 and 2021/22. Smallholder HSs sales rate declined while HSs home utilization rate increased between 2008/09 and 2021/22, these might be due to poor HSs quality and marking problems. These suggest that preparing a livestock management training manual and incorporating it into the existing extension package, and linking actors with markets are crucial. From 2002/03-2021/22, the volume of HSs, and leather and leather product (LLP) exports was volatile but reduced from 10.55 to 2.24 thousand MT, and the income reduced from USD 52.22 to 33.2 million. The volume of exports reduced by 43.47% from 2012/13 to 2021/22; this could be the result of the low quality of HSs, and government policy led to low production of tanners and manufacturers to supply to the export market therefore, maintaining the quality of HSs starting from livestock production, slaughter, and post-slaughter through extension service, and revising policies are important. Despite Ethiopia has opportunity for livestock availability, government support of the leather sector, and high demand for HSs in the international market, the leather sector faces production, marketing, and policy challenges. With these challenges, HSs production will continue and increase, while the sales rate will decrease and the utilization rate will continue but never increase for the next ten years. The HS and LLP export will also continue, but never increase in these years.

The main purpose of this study is to examine the perceptions of psychological counselors on working with clients from different cultures. Accordingly, the extent of the knowledge of psychological counselors on multicultural counseling approach and their perceptions of this approach, the theoretical competencies thereof, and cultural differences were examined in line with the main purpose of the study. The study was conducted using the basic qualitative design. The study group consists of 17 psychological counselors (eleven females and six males) who were continuing their post-graduate education at Gazi University Institute of Educational Sciences in the Spring Semester of the 2020-2021 Academic Year. Data were collected online with semi-structured interviews. The results revealed that a significant portion of the participants did not consider themselves theoretically competent in the multicultural counseling approach. It was further concluded that the majority of the participants had positive perceptions of cultural differences. On the other hand, the holistic evaluation of the answers indicated that the extent of knowledge and awareness of the significant portion of the participants on cultural differences are rather poor and insufficient. It is recommended to implement psychoeducational programs and training on the subject, to give compulsory courses on multicultural counseling approach in Guidance and Psychological Counseling undergraduate programs, and to direct students to exchange programs to experience cultural differences.
