STUDENTS’ PERCEPTION ON ADVANTAGES OF FEEDBACK IN IMPROVING TEACHING SKILLS

This study aims to describe students' perceptions of feedback given by lecturers to improve teaching skills in the Micro Teaching class. Feedback is a strategic way chosen by lecturers to evaluate students’ teaching performance. This type of research is descriptive quantitative. The population were seventh semester students of the English Teaching Department, Faculty of Tarbiyah and Teacher Training, IAIN Batusangkar academic year 2017/2018  by involving 38 students as sample and 9 students as tried-out sample using simple random sampling technique. The research instrument was a closed questionnaire consisted of 48 statements. Then to analyze the  data, the researchers interpreted the data used Djemaris. The results of the study described that students' perceptions on feedback given by lecturers in the Micro Teaching class were strongly positive (76.31%) and positive (23.68%). This means that generally, students' perceptions on the feedback given by lecturers in improving teaching skills in the micro teaching class are very good

Phase Velocity Method for Guided Wave Measurements in Composite Plates

Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer is a well-recognized material for aeronautic applications. Its plane structure has been widely used where anisotropic characteristics should be evaluated with flaw detection. A phase velocity method of ultrasonic guided waves based on a pitch-catch configuration is presented for this purpose. Both shear vertical (SV) and shear horizontal (SH) have been studied. For SV (Lamb waves) the measurements were done at different frequencies in order to evaluate the geometrical dispersion and elastic constants. The results for SV are discussed with an orthotropic elastic model. Finally experiments with lamination flaws are presented

Analisis Geokimia Batuan Marmer Desa Kamang Magek Kecamatan Kamang, Kabupaten Agam, Provinsi Sumatera Barat

GEOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS MARMER IN KAMANG MAGEK VILLAGE, TILATANG KAMANG DISTRICT, AGAM REGENCY, WEST SUMATERA PROVINCE Ratif Dwilana 153610212 Geological Engineering ABSTRACT Geochemistry aims to determine the distribution and information of mineral deposits in the form of general surface geological data and subsurface data (petrographic testing) as information on the potential for mineral deposits in the area to be used as an energy resource. The research area is located in the village of Kamang Magek, Tilatang Kamang District, Agam Regency, West Sumatra Province. This research was conducted to determine the geological aspects, mineral characteristics, distribution, and mineral potential of the area. The research method used petrographic analysis and XRF analysis on the rocks contained in the outcrop. The results of the study are geological data (secondary data), namely parallel flow patterns, steep hill geomorphological units of karst, and lithological units, namely marble rocks. Minerals with the highest peak value were Calcite, and the largest mineral distribution was Calcite (61,59%), Aluminum Oxide (Al2O3) 20,5%, Silica (SiO2) 6,88%, Iron Oxide (Fe2O3) 5,74%, Magnesium Oxide (MgO) 2,66%, and Potassium Oxide (K2O) 2,63%. in the research area. The use of minerals in the research area is in the form of Calcite and Aluminum minerals which can be used as textile materials, pesticide production, sugar screening, glass making, and industry

IMPLEMENTASI KEBIJAKAN PENANGGULANGAN HIV/AIDS DI KOTA PALU

ABSTRAK IMPLEMENTASI KEBIJAKAN PENANGGULANGAN HIV/AIDS KOTA PALU Ahmad Ratif, Adhar Arifuddin, Muh Ryman Napirah 1. Administrasi dan Kebijakan Kesehatan, Fakultas Kedokteran dan Ilmu Kesehatan, 2. Universitas Tadulako, Jl. Soekarno Hatta KM 9, Palu, 94116, Indonesia E-mail: [email protected] HIV di Indonesia sampai dengan bulan Maret 2013 sebanyak 103.759 kasus. Kasus di Sulawesi Tengah HIV dan AIDS dilaporkan secara kumulatif sebanyak 359 kasus, meliputi HIV sebanyak 80 kasus, AIDS sebanyak 147 kasus dan 21 orang meninggal dunia. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui implementasi kebijakan penanggulangan HIV/AIDS di Kota Palu dan mengetahui konsep komunikasi, sumber daya, disposisi, dan stuktur birokrasi dalam penaggulangan HIV/AIDS di Kota Palu. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan ialah kualitatif dengan teknik triangulasi, yakni wawancara mendalam (indept interview), observasi, dan telaah dokumentasi lapangan. Dengan menggunakan pedoman wawancara (interview guide) yang memuat pokok–pokok yang akan ditanyakan untuk memperoleh keterangan secara lisan antara peneliti dengan informan. Jumlah informan yang digunakan adalah 5 orang, terdiri dari 1 informan kunci dan 2 biasa serta 2 orang informan tambahan. Analisis data menggunakan pendekatan analisa isi (content analysis) dengan teknik matriks dimana informasi yang diperoleh diolah dalam tabel, dan kategorisasi serta dalam bentuk narasi/cerita. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Kota Palu belum mempunyai Perda tentang penanggulangan HIV/AIDS sehingga lingkungan dan sasarannya belum efektif, komunikasi antar birokrasi dan sikap pelaksana cukup baik dengan wewenang dan adanya insentif yang diberikan, namun sumber daya belum mencukupi dan pandangan dari instansi lain yang masih rendah. Diharapkan Kota Palu membuat Perda tentang penanggulangan HIV/AIDS agar arah kebijakan lebih jelas dan lebih optimal.

Sperm count and semen volume of the study groups.

Bar charts showing the relationships between Type-2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) & Malaria co-morbidity, Type-2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) only, and the Normal (Control) population based on sperm volume and sperm count. A: Volume of Semen; B: Sperm Concentration; C: Total Sperm Count. Tukey’s HSD post hoc test was conducted to identify mean differences between groups. Data represented Mean±SD, Mean difference was significant at α<0.05; ****p < 0.0001; **p < 0.01.</p

Clinical history of the study participants.

Type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and malaria infection are highly prevalent in Africa particularly, in the Sub-Saharan Region. A greater number of people in the Ghanaian population who have T2DM are also reported to harbor malaria parasites. This study aimed to investigate the influence of T2DM & Malaria co-morbidity on sperm parameters among patients in the Ashanti Region of Ghana. This hospital-based cross-sectional analytic case-control study comprised 254 adult male study participants comprising 80 T2DM & Malaria co-morbidity, 80 T2DM only, and 94 normal controls. A blood sample (10mL) was drawn from each participant to measure FBG, HbA1c levels, Testosterone levels, Total cholesterol, and determination of Malaria parasite density. Seminal fluid was also collected from each participant for semen analysis. Sperm kinetics of the T2DM & Malaria co-morbidity group particularly; total motility, rapid progressive motility, and slow progressive motility were negatively affected compared to both T2DM only (p(64) = -8.62; p</div
