INOVASI SISTEM PENDIDIKAN

Education is everything. Good civilization is one result of good education. When a community wants to achieve its goals well, education is the key to the answer. However, along with the changing times and times, education also changes in the patterns and methods of teaching. In addition, age, place, technological sophistication also forms learning patterns in education. Therefore, as time goes on as well as the demands of the times faced, it is very necessary for innovation in education itself. This is merely to meet the needs of the community as the main element in the education system. The writing below illustrates the importance of education in accordance with its stages and at the same time the demand for innovation

Manajemen Berbasis Sekolah (Alternatif Peningkatan Mutu Pendidikan Madrasah)

This paper is intended to uncover the core issues that exist in madrasah as aroot barrier to the improvement of its quality. The results show that madrasah confronts a dilemma as an educational institution. As an educational institution, madrasah should be given broad discretion in its management, especially in the era of regional autonomy. In todays era of autonomy, one of the concepts that canbe applied to improve the quality of education is the School-Based Management (SBM). The paper argues that although madrasah is under the auspice of the Department of Religion, the concept of School-Based Management (MBS) canbe adopted by madrasah on the basis of its suitability as strategies in coping with madrasahs problems. The implementation of Madrasah-Based Management is intended to improve the quality of madrasah as an Islamic institution

MENCIPTAKAN PEMBELAJARAN EFEKTIF MELALUI HYPNOTEACHING

The aim of this paper is to provide the information to educators on hypnoteaching as one of the alternative methods that can be used to create effective learning. The effective learning is the learning that enables learners to learn easy, fun, and can achieve the learning objectives that have been set. Hypnoteaching is the learning methods in delivering the subject matter, the teacher uses the communication techniques are very persuasive and suggestive with the aim that students easily understand the subject matter. Hypnoteaching steps include: 1) intention and motivation within yourself; 2) pacing or equalize the position, gestures, language, and brain waves with others or learners; 3) leading or directing learners; 4) using positive words; giving a compliment; 6) modeling or exemplify through speech and behavior. If teachers apply hypnoteacing in the learning activities, the classroom atmosphere will be more conducive, learners feel important, safe and comfortable so that the goal of learning more easily is achieve

KARAKTER PENDIDIK MENURUT HADIS

Seorang pendidik sebagai penunjuk jalan bagi muridnya untuk mencapai kesempurnaan ilmu dan pengetahuan. Oleh sebab itu, dipersyaratkan bagi seorang pendidik untuk mempunyai sifat-sifat terpuji. Jika dibandingkan dengan kejiwaan pendidik, tentu saja kondisi kejiwaan seorang siswa masih dikatakan belum stabil. Dengan kata lain, Jika seorang pendidik memiliki sifat-sifat sempurna, maka murid pula akan mengikutinya. Oleh karena itu, seorang pendidik harus menjadi insan yang bertakwa serta rendah hati dan ramah agar dicintai oleh anak didik. Seorang pendidik adalah contoh teladan bagi anak didiknya itu sendiri, oleh karenaitu kepribadian positif yang harus dimiliki oleh seseorang pendidik, bagaimanapun karena sifat terpuji seseorang pendidik wajib lebih dari siswa, sebab pekerjaannya sebagai guru serta mendidik sehingga tujuan anak didik yang memiliki sifat atau kepribadian yang bertakwa kepada Allah SWT tercapai. Satu hal untuk mencapai tujuan tersebut Jika seorang pendidik tidak bisa menjadi contoh yang baik bagi murid

Twelve-month observational study of children with cancer in 41 countries during the COVID-19 pandemic

Introduction Childhood cancer is a leading cause of death. It is unclear whether the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted childhood cancer mortality. In this study, we aimed to establish all-cause mortality rates for childhood cancers during the COVID-19 pandemic and determine the factors associated with mortality. Methods Prospective cohort study in 109 institutions in 41 countries. Inclusion criteria: children <18 years who were newly diagnosed with or undergoing active treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, Hodgkin lymphoma, retinoblastoma, Wilms tumour, glioma, osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, medulloblastoma and neuroblastoma. Of 2327 cases, 2118 patients were included in the study. The primary outcome measure was all-cause mortality at 30 days, 90 days and 12 months. Results All-cause mortality was 3.4% (n=71/2084) at 30-day follow-up, 5.7% (n=113/1969) at 90-day follow-up and 13.0% (n=206/1581) at 12-month follow-up. The median time from diagnosis to multidisciplinary team (MDT) plan was longest in low-income countries (7 days, IQR 3-11). Multivariable analysis revealed several factors associated with 12-month mortality, including low-income (OR 6.99 (95% CI 2.49 to 19.68); p<0.001), lower middle income (OR 3.32 (95% CI 1.96 to 5.61); p<0.001) and upper middle income (OR 3.49 (95% CI 2.02 to 6.03); p<0.001) country status and chemotherapy (OR 0.55 (95% CI 0.36 to 0.86); p=0.008) and immunotherapy (OR 0.27 (95% CI 0.08 to 0.91); p=0.035) within 30 days from MDT plan. Multivariable analysis revealed laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection (OR 5.33 (95% CI 1.19 to 23.84); p=0.029) was associated with 30-day mortality. Conclusions Children with cancer are more likely to die within 30 days if infected with SARS-CoV-2. However, timely treatment reduced odds of death. This report provides crucial information to balance the benefits of providing anticancer therapy against the risks of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children with cancer

MODERNISASI PESANTREN: PERGESERAN TRADISI DAN PUDARNYA KYAI

This paper is aimed at studying the bias of the pesantren orientation, pesantren transformation and its implication on the institutional development of the pesantren. The findings give indication that this educational institution has, slowly but surely, been unable to realize its identity as the agent of social changes. At the same time, young generation who are graduates of both general and Islamic high schools and universities have begun to play a strategic role in the management and leadership of pesantren in particular and ummah in general. Therefore, it is essential for pesantren to understand the basic idea of modernization in education. With this knowledge, pesantren will be able to make some revision toward the. ideal form of pesantren in the future

Documentation of Phytotoxic Compounds Existing in Parthenium hysterophorus L. Leaf and Their Phytotoxicity on Eleusine indica (L.) Gaertn. and Digitaria sanguinalis (L.) Scop

The utilization of the invasive weed, Parthenium hysterophorus L. for producing value-added products is novel research for sustaining our environment. Therefore, the current study aims to document the phytotoxic compounds contained in the leaf of parthenium and to examine the phytotoxic effects of all those phytochemicals on the seed sprouting and growth of Crabgrass Digitaria sanguinalis (L.) Scop. and Goosegrass Eleusine indica (L.) Gaertn. The phytotoxic substances of the methanol extract of the P. hysterophorus leaf were analyzed by LC-ESI-QTOF-MS=MS. From the LC-MS study, many compounds, such as terpenoids, flavonoids, amino acids, pseudo guaianolides, and carbohydrate and phenolic acids, were identified. Among them, seven potential phytotoxic compounds (i.e., caffeic acid, vanillic acid, ferulic acid, chlorogenic acid, quinic acid, anisic acid, and parthenin) were documented, those are responsible for plant growth inhibition. The concentration needed to reach 50% growth inhibition in respect to germination (ECg50), root length (ECr50), and shoot length (ECs50) was estimated and the severity of phytotoxicity of the biochemicals was determined by the pooled values (rank value) of three inhibition parameters. The highest growth inhibition was demarcated by caffeic acid, which was confirmed and indicated by cluster analysis and principal component analysis (PCA). In the case of D. sanguinalis, the germination was reduced by 60.02%, root length was reduced by 76.49%, and shoot length was reduced by 71.14% when the chemical was applied at 800 μM concentration, but in the case of E. indica, 100% reduction of seed germination, root length, and shoot length reduction occurred at the same concentration. The lowest rank value was observed from caffeic acids in both E. indica (rank value 684.7) and D. sanguinalis (909.5) caused by parthenin. It means that caffeic acid showed the highest phytotoxicity. As a result, there is a significant chance that the parthenium weed will be used to create bioherbicides in the future

Determination and Quantification of Phytochemicals from the Leaf Extract of <i>Parthenium hysterophorus</i> L. and Their Physio-Biochemical Responses to Several Crop and Weed Species

This current investigation was undertaken both in laboratory and glasshouse for documentation and quantification of phytochemicals from different parts of the parthenium (Parthenium hysterophorus L.) plant through LC-MS and HPLC to study their effect on two crops namely, Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranean L.) and maize (Zea mays L.), and six different types of weed e.g., Digitaria sanguinalis, Eleusine indica, Ageratum conyzoides, Cyperus iria, Euphorbia hirta, and Cyperus difformis. The parthenium methanolic leaf extracts at 25, 50, 75, and 100 g L−1 were sprayed in the test crops and weeds to assess their physiological and biochemical reactions after 6, 24, 48, and 72 h of spraying these compounds (HAS). The LC-MS analysis confirmed seven types of phytochemicals (caffeic acid, ferulic acid, vanillic acid, parthenin, chlorogenic acid, quinic acid, and p-anisic acid) in the parthenium leaf extract that were responsible for the inhibition of tested crops and weeds. From the HPLC analysis, higher amounts in leaf methanol extracts (40,752.52 ppm) than those of the stem (2664.09 ppm) and flower extracts (30,454.33 ppm) were recorded. Parthenium leaf extract at 100 g L−1 had observed higher phytotoxicity on all weed species except C. difformis. However, all crops were found safe under this dose of extraction. Although both crops were also affected to some extent, they could recover from the stress after a few days. The photosynthetic rate, transpiration rate, stomatal conductance, carotenoid and chlorophyll content were decreased due to the application of parthenium leaf extract. However, when parthenium leaf extract was applied at 100 g L−1 for 72 h, the malondialdehyde (MDA) and proline content were increased in all weeds. Enzymatic antioxidant activity (e.g., superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and peroxidase (POD) contents) were also elevated as a result of the sprayed parthenium leaf extract. The negative impact of physiological and biochemical responses as a consequence of the parthenium leaf extract led the weed species to be stressed and finally killed. The current findings show the feasibility of developing bioherbicide from the methanolic extract of parthenium leaf for controlling weeds, which will be cost-effective, sustainable, and environment friendly for crop production during the future changing climate
