The Effect of Quran Recitation to Pain and Comfort Feeling on Patients with Reduced Consciousness in UNS Hospital

Patients with reduced consciousness still have the ability to feel the surrounding condition. It becomes the basis of therapeutic communication development, which one of the components is identifying the pain scale which is inversely proportional to comfort. The Quran recitation brings relaxation for its listeners so that it is an appropriate modality to provide comfort. This study aimed to analyze the influence of Quran recitation to patients with reduced consciousness on pain scale and comfort. There were 12 patients with reduced consciousness aged over 18 years without a history of deafness. The consciousness was assessed by Glasgow Coma Scale with a score of 4 to 14. The patients were divided into two groups equally: (1) intervention group (T) with the Quran recitation given 3 times a day for 3 days and (2) control group without intervention (C). Pain scale was quantified using a visual analogue scale, faces pain rating scale, and comfort scale before and after treatment and done by three observers. Meanwhile, blood cortisol test was conducted after treatment. Document and content analysis was conducted on the interview results of patient and family satisfaction by three coders. T group showed similarities on easiness to get asleep, feeling of not lonely, and memory of powerful life. Meanwhile, C group showed similarities on the annoying sound outside and difficulty to get asleep. Measurement of pain scale in T group by using a visual analog scale (p=0.263), faces pain rating scale(p=0.568) and comfort scale (p=0.35) did not show a significant difference between pre and post-test. Cortisol level showed higher trend in T group compared to C group although not significantly different (p=0.286). The Quran recitation in patients with reduced consciousness brings comfort was explained by the interview results as their consciousness gradually improves. &nbsp

STUDENTS’ ATTITUDE TOWARDS ORAL PRESENTATION IN VIRTUAL LEARNING AT ENGLISH EDUCATION STUDY PROGRAM OF PATTIMURA UNIVERSITY

Studies about an attitude toward learning English have been conducted almost everywhere because of its important influence on the English learning process. The attitude can be categorized into three components namely cognitive, affective/emotional, and behavioral. The study is focused on the emotional component which covers the person’s emotions and feeling towards an object. It can directly affect one’s preferences in order to stand for or against or to like or dislike something. Due to the pandemic situation where all the subjects must be done virtual, the researcher attempts to explore what are students’ emotional attitudes toward the virtual oral presentation. The researcher finds it interesting since virtual learning is an uncommon method for students, especially in doing an oral presentation as well as the novelty of the previous related study. The research objective is to find out the students’ emotional attitudes towards oral presentation in virtual learning, especially in the fifth semester of the English education study program at Pattimura University. This study applied a survey as a research design by using a Questionnaire and Interview. The subject of this study consists of fifteen students who enrolled in SLA class. The result of the questionnaire showed that most students in the second language acquisition (SLA) class held a positive attitude toward the virtual oral presentation. The majority or 12 students (80%) strongly agreed that the oral presentation in virtual learning is more fun and preferable. On the other hand, 11 students (73.3%) strongly agreed that it reduces their anxiety level and also improves their self-confidence. In conclusion, it benefits so much to improve their motivation in English virtual learning compared to face-to-face oral presentations. In a face-to-face class, they had high speaking anxiety by having a great fear of getting involved in a conversation, great fear of the audience, and a great fear of failure. In addition, further researchers can focus on the technology application in virtual learning and its impact on students’ language ability as the novelty element of this study

Implementasi Kebijakan Pelayanan Air Bersih Wilayah Perkotaan Berbasis Kerja Sama Pemerintah dan Swasta di Kecamatan Mandau

Tuntutan pelayanan air bersih yang berkualitas, berprosedur jelas, dilaksanakan dengan segera dan dengan biaya yang pantas hingga saat ini selalu menjadi perhatian utama pemerintah. Lemahnya koordinasi dan kelembagaan dapat menimbulkan pengelolaan sumber daya air tidak efisien. Keterlibatan sektor swasta dalam penyediaan air bersih di Indonesia, mulai terjadi pada tahun 90-an, seiring dengan semakin menurunnya peran pendanaan dari pemerintah pusat. Fenomena pengelolaan sumber daya air di wilayah Duri, Kecamatan Mandau, Kabupaten Bengkalis, Provinsi Riau pada tahun 1997 sudah dikelola dengan bekerjasama dengan pihak swasta yaitu dengan PT. Chevron Pacific Indonesia (CPI) atau dulu lebih dikenal masyarakat sebagai PT.Caltex Pasific Indonesia. Tujuan Pemerintah melakukan kerjasama adalah untuk pengadaan sarana air bersih wilayah Duri. Kerjasama ini dilaksanakan secara terpadu guna mencapai kebutuhan pelayanan air bersih sebesar minimum 80 liter/detik. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mendiskripsikan dan menganalisis implementasi kebijakan pelayanan air bersih wilayah perkotaan di PDAM Cabang Duri Kabupaten Bengkalis serta faktor pendukung dan penghambat implementasi kebijakan pelayanan air bersih wilayah perkotaan di PDAM Cabang Duri Kabupaten Bengkalis.

Membangun Web Service pada Sistem Informasi Perizinan Angkutan Umum dengan Metode Extreme Programming (Studi Kasus Dinas Perhubungan Kabupaten Bandung Barat)

Dinas Perhubungan Kabupaten Bandung Barat merupakan dinas pemerintahan yang bertugas dalam bidang perhubungan, salah satunya dalam pemberian izin di Kabupaten Bandung Barat itu sendiri. Proses perizinan terbilang rumit dikarenakan pemohon harus datang ke loket informasi untuk mendapatkan form perizinan, kemudian mengembalikan form beserta pengumpulan berkas persyaratan administrasi. Saat pengambilan dan pengembalian form terjadi antrian, karena yang mengajukan perizinan tidaklah sedikit. Bahkan selain itu, surat perizinan yang memiliki tanggal expire-date kurang menjadi perhatian bagi para pemohonnya. Sehingga terkadang surat perizinan yang dimiliki sudah kadaluarsa. Di sisi lain, ketika staff dishub melakukan pemeriksaan angkutan umum di terminal maupun di beberapa titik pemeriksaan, ada beberapa angkutan umum yang tidak memiliki surat dengan lengkap atau bahkan suratnya tidak berlaku. Berdasarkan hal tersebut maka akan diaplikasikan web service dan website sistem informasi perizinan angkutan umum bernama “WS.PAT” yang dapat membantu pemohon dalam melakukan pengajuan secara online, mengetahui informasi perizinan yang sedang diajukan, serta memudahkan mendapat informasi untuk melakukan perpanjangan. Adapun aplikasi web service sendiri digunakan sebagai backup database demi menjaga keamanan data Dinas Perhubungan sendiri. Dimana ada beberapa aplikasi yang dapat diakses oleh pihak eksternal (pemohon) untuk mengajukan perizinan, sehingga untuk meminimalisir kejadian yang tidak diharapkan, maka digunakannya aplikasi web service ini. Selain itu juga, aplikasi web service ini digunakan untuk menghubungkan antara aplikasi berbasis intranet dan android. Sehingga keduanya dapat terhubung dalam satu database. Metode yang digunakan yaitu extreme programming, karena extreme programming memiliki kelebihan dalam menjalin komunikasi yang baik dengan client serta meningkatkan komunikasi dan sifat saling menghargai antar developer. Selain itu, extreme programming digunakan saat client membutuhkan waktu yang cepat dalam pembuatan sistem
