    Pemilihan judul diatas tidak hanya relevan dengan konteks kekinian yang ditandai dengan makinbertambahnya korban-korban game on-line terutama di kota-kota besar, tetapi juga terkait dengan upayakita melakukan inovasi pembelajaran khususnya bidang TIK, sehingga pembelajaran menjadi lebihbermakna dan menyenangkan. Selama ini, keberadaan TIK sangat berperan dalam meningkatkan kualitasSDM siswa. Melihat scope TIK yang luas dan terus berkembang, penulis melihat ada kesamaan scope antaraTIK dengan Game on-line, yaitu sama-sama menggunakan komputer. Hanya bedanya, dengan TIK anak bisamenjadiprodusen game, tapi lewat game online, anak hanya sebagai konsumen.Persoalanya adalah ketika Game online sudah tidak lagi berfungsi sebagai media hiburan, tapi lebihke candu bahkan dikomersialkan. Disatu sisi, game online bagus untuk perkembangan otak kanan mereka,namun jika porsinya terlalu besar, kedepannya bisa menghambat karier anak. Jika kompetensi siswa yangdijadikan acuan mutu sistem pendidikan, maka sistem pendidikan yang baik adalah jika inputannyabervariasi tetapi outputannya selalu ‚‘kompeten‘. Artinya sistem pendidikanlah yang mempu menerapi anakpecandu game online. Pengekangan anak, bukanlah solusi , TIK sebenarnya bisa dijadikan altenatif solusimasalah ini. Masalah lain bagi penggemar game online adalah UAN, karena otak kanan cenderung tidakmenyukai keteraturan. Model UAN online, bisa dijadikan alternatif solusi

    Coastal land located in the lowlands near the coast has a marginal Entisol soil type. Entisols have the following characteristics: loose soil aggregate, sensitive to erosion, and low levels of nutrients, organic matter, water holding capacity, and soil fertility. The nature of this Entisol is less able to produce maximum upland rice production. The technology used to overcome this problem is by applying macro and micro fertilizers to the soil, which is planted with upland rice seeds, inoculated with biological fertilizers so that it is hoped that upland rice production can be maximized. The purpose of this study was to obtain high upland rice production in coastal areas. The research was carried out from June to December 2020 in Beringin Raya Village, Muara Bangkahulu District, Bengkulu City. The research location is located at coordinates S 03?45'23'' E 102?15'41''. The experimental design used was Completely Randomized Block Design (CRBD) with 2 factors, namely types of fertilizers and varieties of upland rice. The first factor consists of P0 = No fertilizer; P1 = compound micro fertilizer; P2 = Fertilizer recommended for upland rice from the Institute for Agricultural Research and Technology). The second factor consists of V1 = red upland rice; V2 = white upland rice) The results showed that there was an interaction between the type of fertilizer and upland rice varieties on soil pH (KCl 1:2.5 w/v). the interaction of microfertilizers with white upland rice varieties resulted in the highest soil pH (5.06). The best type of fertilizer is micro-compound fertilizer which produces soil pH (KCl 1:2.5 w/v), P nutrient uptake, the highest root colonization and the highest number of production tillers and the highest grain weight per plant and upland rice yield per plot. The best upland rice variety was the white variety which produced the highest uptake of P nutrients, the number of productive tillers, the weight of grain per plant and the highest yield per plot

    Unfortunately, there are number of potential drug candidates that have poor aqueous solubility is increasing progressively. The invention of Nanosponges has become a significant step towards overcoming these problems. These small sponges can circulate around the body until they encounter the target site and stick on the surface and began to release the drug in a controlled and predictable manner which is more effective for a particular dosage form. The purpose of this research was to prepare Nateglinide loaded Nanosponges for controlled release of drug, and to improve the aqueous solubility of nateglinide, reduce dosing frequency and to improve the patient compliance. Nateglinide is a poorly soluble drug with a short half life, thus selected as a model drug for Nanosponge Drug Delivery System and to release the drug in a controlled manner for prolonged period. Nateglinide is formulated as Nanosponges by Emulsion Solvent Diffusion method using Ethyl Cellulose as polymer and Polyvinyl alcohol as a stabilizer. ❖ The physical compatibility of Nateglinide with excipients was studied. The drug and exicipients were physically compatible with each other. ❖ The chemical compatibility studies of Nateglinide with excipients was carried out using FT-IR Spectrometer. It revealed that no interaction between the drug and excipients. ❖ Melting point of drug was determined. It matches with the standard value. ❖ Calibration curve was plotted for Nateglinide and it was found that the solutions show linearity (0.999) and obeyed Beer-Lambert’s law. ❖ Solubility of pure drug was determined. Nateglinide pure drug in distilled water and phosphate buffer pH 6.8 was found to be insoluble. ❖ Formulation study design was developed by using box behnken design (Design Expert (version 8.0.7.1., Stat Ease.,Inc)), the formulation design were predicted and statistically analysed. ❖ The independent variables selected were Ethyl cellulose (A), Polyvinyl alcohol (B) and Stirring speed (C) and the dependent variable choosen were Particle size (Y1), PDI (Y) and Entrapment efficiency (Y3). ❖ The formulations were optimized using Box Behnken design by comparing the predicted values with the observed values. ❖ The design predicted the values of optimized formulation which was then formulated and evaluated. ❖ The optimized formulation was evaluated for FT-IR Study and it is clearly evident that the optimized Nanosponge formulation showed the presence of characteristics bands of Nateglinide. This indicates the absence of chemical interaction between the Nateglinide and the excipients. ❖ The formulated Nateglinide loaded nanosponge was evaluated for their percentage yield and was found to be 96.98%. ❖ The solubility of optimized formulation in distilled water and phosphate buffer pH 6.8 was compared with that of pure drug and concluded that optimized nanosponge shows increased solubility compared to pure drug. ❖ The UV-visible spectrophotometric method was used to determine the drug content of optimized nanosonge formulation. The drug content was found to be 96.91%. ❖ The entrapment efficiency of the optimized formulation was determined and their entrapment efficiency of the formulations was observed to be 90.49%. ❖ The prepared optimized nanosponge shows significantly higher dissolution rate compared to that of pure drug. It was observed that the drug release rate decreased by the concentration of polymer. ❖ In vitro release of optimized formulation showed a rapid initial burst, followed by a very slow drug release. ❖ The optimized formulation were characterized for surface morphology, particle size analysis and zeta potential. ❖ The shape and surface morphology of optimized formulations were observed in SEM. It shows that the Nanosponges were spherical with numerous pores on their surface, uniform and spongy in nature. The presence of pores may be due to the diffusion of the solvent (dichloromethane). ❖ The particle size distribution and polydispersity were carried out using Horiba Scientific particle size analyzer. The mean particle size and Z average of optimized formulation was found to be 181.4 nm and 264 nm (within nanometric range). ❖ Polydispersity of optimized formulation was found out to be 0.326, indicating uniformity of particle size within formulation. ❖ The zeta potential study was done by zeta sizer. The zeta potential for the optimized formulations was found to be be - 33.7mV which showed that the formulation is stable. ❖ Flow property measurements (Bulk density, Tapped density, Angle of repose, Carr’s index and Hausner’s ratio) were studied for Nateglinde pure drug and optimized Nanosponge. It revealed that the flow property of pure drug was very poor, but the optimized Nanosponge has good flow property. ❖ The release kinetics of the optimized formulations was fitted to various kinetic models and the optimized formulation was best fitted to Zero order kinetics. The zero order kinetics explains the controlled release of the prepared Nanosponges over the period of 12 hours. ❖ Higuchi plot show linearity, which indicates the rate of drug release through the mode of diffusion and the slope of the Korsmeyer Peppas plot (0.636) indicating the diffusion was anomalous diffusion (Non Fickian diffusion). ❖ Thus, the release kinetics of the optimized formulation was best fitted into Higuchi model and showed zero order drug release with Non Fickian diffusion mechanism. ❖ The optimized formulation was subjected to room temperature, accelerated stability study (temperature 40°C±2°C and RH 75±5%) and refrigerator temperature (4±20C). The results show no significant change in appearance, drug entrapment efficiency and drug content of optimized formulation after one month. ❖ The foregoing results attempt to suggest that for poorly soluble drugs like Nateglinide, Nanosponge approach would be a possible alternative delivery system to conventional oral formulation to improve its bioavailability. FUTURE PLAN: • The optimized nateglinide nanosponge can be loaded in capsule and evaluated. • In vivo studies. • Pharamcokonetics & Biodistribution studie
