Pengaruh Pembelajaran Kooperatif Tipe Jigsaw Terhadap Kemampuan Pemecahan Masalah Dan Komunikasi Matematik Siswa

Matematika adalah salah satu subjek kurikulum yang memiliki hubungan dengan kehidupan sehari-hari. Oleh karena itu, pembelajaran matematika diharapkan untuk mengembangkan (1) sikap logis, (2) analisis dan konsisten berpikir, (3) perhitungan yang akurat, (4) kerja yang be1tanggungjawab, (5) responsifbicara, dan tidak membuat siswa mudah menyerah dalam melakukan sesuatu. Dengan memiliki kemampuan yang demikian ini diharapkan siswa dapat meningkatkan cara memecahkan masalah dan berkomunikasi matematis baik dalam dunia pendidikan maupun dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Salah satu cara untuk mengembangkan kemampuan yang demikian adalah dengan pembelajaran kooperatif tipe Jigsaw. Di dalam pembelajaran kooperatif tipe Jigsaw ini kelas dibagi menjadi beberapa kelompok kecil yang beranggotakan empat atau lima siswa. Tiap kelompok diberi tugas yang sama yang terditi dari beberapa topik sesuai dengan banyak anggota kelompok. Masing-masing siswa dalam satu kelompok belajar memilih satu topik pembelajaran yang menjadi tanggung jawabnya. Setelah itu setiap siswa yang mendapat tugas yang sama dengan siswa kelompok lain bergabung membentuk kelompok baru yang dinamakan kelompok ahli. Mereka membahas topik pembelajaran yang menjadi tanggung jawabnya sampai tuntas. Setelah itu mereka kembali ke kelompok asal dan mengajari anggota kelompok asal lain secara bergantian. Permasalahan utama dalam penelitian ini adalah bagaimana pengaruh pembelajaran kooperatif tipe Jigsaw terhadap kemampuan pemecahan masalah dan komunikasi matematis siswa. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian kuasi eksperimen dengan populasi siswa kelas IX SMP Negeri 8 Kota Probolinggo tahun pelajaran 2014/2015 dengan sampel kelas IX.1 dan kelas IX.3. Data yang diperlukan dalam penelitian ini dikumpulkan dengan dua macam cara yaitu ( 1) memberikan tes pada siswa dan (2) melakukan obsevasi terhadap pelaksanaan pembelajaran.

Schiff bases attached L-glutamine and L-asparagine: First investigation on antimutagenic and antimicrobial analyses

WOS: 000336498100007PubMed ID: 23687951This study was conducted to evaluate the antimutagenic and antimicrobial activities of Schiff bases attached L-glutamine and L-asparagine. Antibacterial activities of the compounds against S. aureus, Sh. dys. typ 7, L. monocytogenes 4b, E. coli, S. typhi H, S. epidermis, Br. abortus, M. luteus, B. cereus, P. putida, and antifungal activity against Candida albicans were studied. These compounds were investigated for antimutagenic properties against Aflatoxin BI (AFBI) using micronuclei (MN) assay in human lymphocyte cell culture in vitro. The protective role of these compounds against AFBI-induced MN is probably related to its doses.Gazi University Research FundGazi University [05/2010-03]is research was supported by the Gazi University Research Fund (Project number: 05/2010-03)

The effect of ohmic heating pretreatment on drying of apple

[EN] In this study, effects of ohmic pretreatment on the drying rates and color kinetics of apple were investigated. Apple slices were treated at different electric field strengths (20-30 and 40 V/cm) at 60°C for 1 min. Drying process was applied at 60˚C-2 m/s by using a tray-dryer. ΔE and moisture content were calculated. These values were fitted to the semi-theoretical thin-layer drying and the zero and first-order kinetic model. The shortest drying time was found samples treated with 30 V/cm. Wang&Singh model gave the superior fit to the experimental data. ΔE fitted well to the zero-order kinetic model.Kutlu, N.; Yilmaz, MS.; Arslan, H.; Isci, A.; Sakiyan, O. (2018). The effect of ohmic heating pretreatment on drying of apple.

Effect of high power ultrasonic treatment on whey protein foaming quality

High power ultrasonic energy at 20%, 40% and 60% amplitude was applied on whey protein suspension at concentrations of 100, 150 and 200 g kg−1 for 5, 15 and 25 min to improve its foaming quality. Ultrasound-treated whey protein suspension at 200 g kg−1 showed improvement in terms of increased foaming capacity by 18%, foam stability by 35%, consistency index by 18%, storage modulus by 17%, loss modulus by 26% and viscosity by 21% compared with untreated whey protein. For maximally ultrasound-treated samples of 60% amplitude treated for 25 min, the improved whey protein foams also had a 46% increase in the number of more evenly distributed fine bubbles which had a size smaller than 0.0025 mm3 as imaged using X-ray microtomography

Air mass trajectories and land cover map reveal cereals and oilseed rape as major local sources of Alternaria spores in the Midlands, UK.

Transport of Alternaria spores from both local agricultural and remote areas has been implicated as a source of these spores in urban areas. The purpose of this study was to understand the relative contribution of local sources versus long distance transport on Alternaria spore concentrations, with applicability to Alternaria and other spore sampling sites worldwide. This was achieved by comparing two spore sampling sites in the cities of Worcester and Leicester in the UK, ~90 km apart, over a three year period (2016-2018) and focusing on a period of time when both sites experienced high spore counts. The study found 61 and 151 days of clinical significance (>100 spores/m³ air) at Worcester and Leicester, respectively. The spore concentrations were considerably higher in Leicester than in Worcester. Analysis of the crop map showed higher amounts of winter barley and oilseed rape near to Leicester compared to Worcester. HYSPLIT modelling during the episode revealed that the air masses arrived at both Leicester and Worcester from Ireland and the Atlantic Ocean. Long distance transport probably had a small but equal contribution to the observations at both sites. HYSPLIT particle dispersion simulations showed that the spores were dispersed and deposited from local sources. The results indicate that substantially higher concentrations of Alternaria spores occur in areas with high amounts of cereals and oilseed rape compared to those with lower amounts, or with different crops
