Parents and Students' Response to Distance Learning (Google Classroom)

This study aims to determine the response of parents and primary students to distance learning based on google classroom during the Covid-19 pandemic. The method used in this study is a qualitative method with data collection in the form of interviews, documentation, and observation. The results showed that both students and their parents objected to using google classroom as a learning media for distance learning activities. According to their explanation, the use of Google Classroom requires strong network access to open or send assignments, besides that data packets also run out quickly due to the use of this distance learning application. For students and parents who have difficulty, an alternative to overcome this is to send assignments via WhatsApp to the teacher concerned

Optically Switched Frequency for Reconfigurable Dipole Antenna Using Photodiode Switches

The design, fabrication, and measurement of reconfigurable antenna using photodiode switches has been investigated. The antenna had dimension 104 mm x 41 mm x 1.6 mm and FR4 substrate with relative permittivity4.8. It structure was Coplanar Stripline (CPS) dipole. Two photodiodeshad assembled on gap in both dipole arms, which was activated by 600 nm red laser. The unilluminated state, antennahad resonant frequency 800 MHz with RL -32 dB, 2225 MHz with RL -12.5 dB, 3320 with RL -14.1 dB. Meanwhile for the illuminated state, antennahad resonant frequency and return loss shifting to 800 MHz with RL -32 dB, 2225 MHz with RL -12.5 dB, 3320 MHz with RL -14.1 dB.This condition caused low impedance and longer dipole arm. If dimension size increases, resonant frequency will decrease. So, there was shifting frequency and return loss at under illuminated by laser

INCULCATING CARING AND ENVIRONMENTALLY CULTURED CHARACTERS AMONG MADRASAH IBTIDAIYAH STUDENTS THROUGH THE ADIWIYATA PROGRAM

The character of caring for the environment needs to be instilled in students from an early age to increase their awareness. This caring is an attitude and action that tries to prevent damage to the surroundings. Therefore, this study aims to describe the formation of caring and environmentally cultured characters in students through the Adiwiyata program at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Negeri (MIN) 1 Kendal, Central Java, Indonesia. The descriptive qualitative approach was used and the informants were the principal, teachers, and students. Data collection was carried out through observation, interviews, and documentation. Furthermore, data analysis was carried out by reduction, presentation, and verification using source and technique triangulation. The results showed the Adiwiyata program at MIN 1 Kendal generated some character building for students and madrasah residents, such as discipline, cooperation and responsibility, as well as sincerity in charity. The formation of a caring and environmentally cultured character in students through the program is implemented with four essential elements, namely Adiwiyata Madrasah Policies, Curriculum, Participatory-Based Activities, and Support Facilities

COMPARATIVE STUDY OF RICE (OryzasativaL.) CULTIVATION IN POLYBAG TO CULTIVATION IN LOWLAND

Purpose of the study: Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is the leading food consumed by Indonesian people even in Asia. The various innovations in rice cultivation still being developed to increase the yield both in quantity and quality. In general, rice cultivation is planted in the lowland. This research aims to compare the productivity of rice cultivation in a polybag to rice cultivation in the lowland. Methodology: The size of the polybag that used in the experiment is 40x40 cm with space 50 cm of each other. The experiment was conducted in Nganjuk, East Java, Indonesia. The variables studied are rice yield and rice varieties. The varieties used are Ciherang and Sertani 12. Main Findings: The result showed that rice production yield includes the number of filled grains, total grain, and panicle number in polybag more than in lowland. Rice cultivation produces 2 kg/m2 in a polybag and 1 kg/m2 in the lowland. The panicle number of rice in polybag is more than in lowland, i.e., 12 in a polybag and 6 in the lowland. For the rice variety, Ciherang and Sertani 12 have the same yield in a polybag. It is 2 kg/m2. Applications of this study: The rice cultivation in polybags has an easy cultivation system and suitable for urban areas where agricultural land is limited. Besides, it can be the solution for decreasing agricultural land from time to time. Novelty/Originality of this study: The novelty of this research is the use of polybags as the media of rice cultivation, which is not commonly done in farming

Analisis Antena Mikrostrip V-shaped CPS dipole sebagai dasar untuk pengembangan Antena Reconfigurable V-shaped CPS dipole

Desain, fabrikasi, karakterisasi, dan analisis antena mikrostrip V-shaped CPS dipole telah dilakukan, dengan variasi sudut sebagai dasar pengembangan antena reconfigurable. FR4 single side dengan permitivitas 4,3 digunakan sebagai substrat. Antena V-shaped dengan sudut 900 memiliki karakteristik yang terbaik. Hal ini ditunjukkan dengan parameter, yaitu nilai return loss semakin berkurang, VSWR mendekati angka 1, bandwidth semakin lebar, HPBW semakin kecil, dan directivity antena semakin besar. Parameter-parameter tersebut menjadi dasar untuk pengembangan antena reconfigurable dengan saklar optik, yaitu solar cell dengan nilai perbandingan photocurrent terhadap dark current (κ) = 1,0009, fotodioda dengan κ=1,005 dan κ=3,5. Saklar optik berfungsi untuk mengkonfigurasi ulang karakteristik antena, khususnya pergeseran frekuensi tanpa mengubah bentuk dan ukuran dimensi antena secara permanen. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa antena reconfigurable yang menggunakan saklar optik solar cell memiliki nilai pergeseran frekuensi sebesar 2 MHz, fotodioda dengan nilai κ=1,005 sebesar 7 MHz, sedangkan fotodioda dengan nilai κ=3,5 sebesar 1920 MHz. Antena dengan saklar optik fotodioda dengan nilai κ=3,5 dapat diaplikasikan sebagai antena Wifi dan CDMA. ================================================================= Design, fabrication, characterization, and analysis of V-shaped CPS dipole microstrip antenna with variation angles as basic of reconfigurable antenna have been developed.
