    UNOAI Report 02-1 The Nebraska Initiative for Aerospace Research and Industrial Development (NIARID) was designed to accelerate the state’s efforts to expand its capacity, national competitiveness, and infrastructure in aerospace research and industry. The systemic goal of the NIARID was to strengthen Nebraska’s long-term ability to develop new, and strengthen current, aerospace research activities that increase the state’s national research competitiveness, foster sustainable growth in aerospace-related industry and the state’s economic development; complement the mission and activities of the Nebraska Space Grant Consortium (NSGC); and advance the goals of NASA and its enterprises. Funding from NIARID accelerated the establishment of a permanent national-level research and education center in aerospace science in Nebraska. The NIARID was founded on, and drew from, a number of supportive structures already in place in the state, including the NSGC, Nebraska EPSCoR, the Nebraska Research Initiative, the Aviation Institute, and the Department of Economic Development The NlARID was a program of focused research and infrastructure strengthening, junior faculty development, educational outreach, industrial development, and long-term strategic planning. It took active measures to broaden the spectrum of aerospace research and industry in the state by encouraging the development of innovative scientific investigations. Its structure ensured effective technology transfer by actively involving industry in all facets of its implementation. It was designed to ensure that Nebraska’s aerospace research and development continues to thrive long after NIARID funding ends.https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/facultybooks/1129/thumbnail.jp

    \u3ci\u3eInteractive Learning: The Casewriting Method as an Entire Semester Course for Higher Education\u3c/i\u3e

    UNOAI Report 94-1 This guide explains for reasons for employing the case method as a tool in the academic discipline of aviation. It promotes the use of case writing as a unique opportunity to derive even further benefits from case analysis. The benefits to students of using case writing as a learning strategy include a focus on the strategy of a real situation; development of an ownership interest; and development of reasoning, decision making, judgement, group dynamic, formal written and oral communication ability, and organizational skills. Issues related to computerization, research, and internalization are also addressed. Among the topics covered are case writing guidelines, case components, time line for case writing presentations, case evaluations, peer evaluations, group self-evaluations, examples of case writing, and a breakdown of those sample cases.https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/facultybooks/1167/thumbnail.jp

    UNOAI Report 2001-5 This document contains four papers concerning collegiate aviation research and education solutions to critical safety issues. “Panel Proposal Titled Collegiate Aviation Research and Education Solutions to Critical Safety Issues for the Tim Forte Collegiate Aviation Safety Symposium” (Brent Bowen) presents proposals for panels on the following topics: geographic north versus magnetic north to provide enhanced national airspace system safety; weather safety training for general aviation pilots through computer flight simulation; identification of human behavior and aircraft maintenance safety issues; disaster preparedness, emergency response, and curriculum development; the collegiate aviation emergency response checklist; and systemic initiatives in aviation safety research. “Current Regulatory Status in Regard to Maintenance Resource Management” (Chien-tsung Lu, Brent Bowen) explores documents, evidence, and perspectives on maintenance resource management training. “Disaster Preparedness, Emergency Response, and Curriculum Development” (Michaela M. Schaaf, Brent D. Bowen) discusses a new upper-level aviation course at the University of Nebraska at Omaha that grew out of research in the area of safety, disaster preparedness, and emergency response. “The Collegiate Aviation Emergency Response Checklist: Fundamental Pre-crisis Planning” (Mary M. Fink, Michael K. Larson) discusses and presents the University of Nebraska at Omaha Aviation Institute’s emergency response checklist, which is designed for use is a flight student is involved in an aircraft accident or incident.https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/facultybooks/1170/thumbnail.jp

    Prevention of the spread of drugs in the community is actually a shared responsibility. In this case, all parties including the community itself and the government must play an active role in being aware of the threat of drugs. Research results from the National Narcotics Agency of Gorontalo Province show that as many as 80% of users are teenagers. As many as 13,710 or 5.8% of students and college students have used drugs. The rate of increase in drug users is about 29% each year. Based on Narcotics Case Report Data (LKN) at the National Narcotics Agency of Gorontalo Province (BNNP), the number of drug cases in Gorontalo for 3 years, from 2015 to 2017 there was an increase every year. In 2017 it increased again by 18 LKN (BNNP, 2017). in 2020 it was known that Gorontalo Province was one of the areas which was a red zone for drug trafficking in Indonesia.Therefore, in dealing with this, steps and strategies are needed as an effort to prevent the spread and abuse of drugs in the community.The program given is expected to focus on eradication and prevention, one of which is through preventive methods. By applying a preventive method and supported by a cultural approach by prioritizing the habits and customs of the people of Cisadane Village, then through the Thematic Community Service Program in Shining Village, which will be carried out in Cisadane Village, Kwandang District, North Gorontalo Regency, it is hoped that it can prevent and eradicate the spread and abuse of drugs. among the local community

    KAJIAN TENTANG KUALITAS KOMPOS YANG MENGGUNAKAN BIOAKTIVATOR EM4 (EFFECTIVE MICROORGANISM) DAN MOL (MIKROORGANISME LOKAL) DARI KEONG MAS

    Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi dan membandingkan kualitas kompos organik yang menggunakan EM4 (Effective Microorganism) dan kompos yang menggunakan MOL (mikroorganisme lokal) yang terbuat dari keong mas. Penelitian dilaksanakan selama bulan Maret-Juli 2020 di laboratorium Jurusan Biologi Fakultas MIPA Universitas Negeri Gorontalo; pengujian lebih lanjut dilakukan di laboratorium PT. hal. Tolangohula, Gorontalo. Parameter penelitian meliputi kualitas fisik kompos (suhu, kadar pH, kelembaban, susut bobot, warna, bau, dan tekstur) dan kualitas kimia (kadar air, kadar C organik, kadar N, dan rasio C/N). . Metode deskriptif digunakan untuk menganalisis data. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kualitas fisik kompos yang menggunakan bioaktivator EM4 telah mencapai spesifikasi kompos matang sebagaimana diatur dalam SNI No. 19-7030-2004. Sedangkan kompos yang menggunakan MOL dari keong emas menghasilkan sedikit bau yang tidak sedap. Selain itu, dari segi kualitas kimia, kualitas kompos yang menggunakan EM4 lebih mendekati spesifikasi kompos matang dibandingkan dengan kompos MOL
