CORRELATION ANALYSIS OF AGRONOMIC CHARACTERS AND GRAIN YIELD OF RICE FOR TIDAL SWAMP AREAS

Development of rice varieties for tidal swamp areas is emphasized on the improvement of rice yield potential in specific environment. However, grain yield is a complex trait and highly dependent on the other agronomic characters; while information related to the relationship between agronomic characters and grain yield in the breeding program particularly for tidal swamp areas is very limited. The objective of this study was to investigate relationship between agronomic characters and grain yield of rice as a basis for selection of high yielding rice varieties for tidal swamp areas. Agronomic characters and grain yield of nine advanced rice breeding lines and two rice varieties were evaluated in a series of experiments in tidal swamp areas, Karang Agung Ulu Village, Banyuasin, South Sumatra, for four cropping seasons in dry season (DS) 2005, wet season (WS) 2005/2006, DS 2006, and DS 2007. Result from path analysis revealed that the following characters had positive direct effect on grain yield, i.e. number of productive tillers per hill (p = 0.356), number of filled grains per panicle (p = 0.544), and spikelet fertility (p = 0.215). Plant height had negative direct effect (p = -0.332) on grain yield, while maturity, number of spikelets per panicle, and 1000-grain weight showed negligible effect on rice grain yield. Present study suggests that indirect selection of high yielding tidal swamp rice can be done by selecting breeding lines which have many product tive tillers, dense filled grains, and high spikelet fertility

PELAKSANAAN PROGRAM KKN TEMATIK MEMBANGUN DESA MEMBANGUN INDONESIA DI KELURAHAN SEI BILAH

Daerah pesisir memiliki tingkat kemiskinan yang tinggi akibat ketidakpastian ekonomi saat nelayan tidak melaut akibat cuaca buruk, dan sebagian besar hanya bergantung pada penangkapan ikan di laut. Hal ini menjadi tantangan dan permasalahan yang harus dicarikan solusinya oleh pemerintah desa yang wilayahnya berbatasan dengan pantai untuk meningkatkan pendapatan nelayan. Kegiatan Kuliah Kerja Nyata Tematik ini dilaksanakan selama tiga bulan berkat kerjasama Universitas Pembangunan Panca Budi dan Kelurahan Sei Bilah Timur. Program KKNT bertujuan untuk mengatasi permasalahan ekonomi, kesehatan, dan UMKM di masyarakat. Metode pelaksanaannya adalah Pendidikan, Pelatihan, dan Advokasi Masyarakat. Pelaksanaan program KKNT (a) Mengedukasi masyarakat tentang pentingnya pencegahan stunting dan mencegah pernikahan dini, (b) Pelatihan teknik printing dan makeup, (c) Advokasi strategi branding produk UMKM. Hasil kegiatan memberikan dampak bagi masyarakat sehingga mereka memahami bahwa banyak kegiatan yang dapat dilakukan untuk meningkatkan pendapatan keluarga selain dari pekerjaan utama mereka sebagai nelayan, seperti menjual produk UMKM dan jasa sablon dan tata rias. Pemahaman masyarakat tentang pencegahan stunting secara tidak langsung meningkatkan ekonomi keluarga. KKNT sebagai program kegiatan membangun desa membangun Indonesia memberikan solusi baru bagi masyarakat untuk pendidikan kesehatan dan UMKM yang secara langsung akan meningkatkan manfaat ekonomi bagi masyarakat pesisir

THE IMPLEMENTATION OF SERIES PICTURE TOWARDS STUDENTS’ SPEAKING ABILITY AT THE SECOND SEMESTER OF THE TENTH CLASS AT MA. AL-HIKMAH BANDAR LAMPUNG IN 2010/2011

A series picture is a sequence of picture dealing with one subject. It may tell a story, present an event, describe a scene, reveal a person, or show how to do something. From the previous studies, series picture has been demonstrated as practical teaching and learning media for students at all grade levels. This method has been identified by researchers as an excellent media for increasing vocabulary and improving writing competence. However, the use of series picture as media for speaking has been relatively unexplored. The objective of this study is to investigate the influence of series picture as media to improve students’ speaking ability. The research design of this study was pre- experimental design. The population was the tenth grade students of MA Al-Hikmah Way Halim Bandar Lampung in the academic year of 2010/2011 and samples consisted of 32 students. The data was collected via test, observation and interview.   In analyzing thedata,  t test formula was used, it was found that t ratio is 3.45 and ttable for a = 0.01 the ttableis 2.46 and for a = 0.05 the ttable is 1.70 it meant that t ratio was higher than t table. Thefinding showed positive feedback received from the subject on the use series picture fortheir speaking ability. Based on the result of this study, it can be concluded that series picture as media is very effective to improve students’ speaking ability

Getting Students to Write English Articles for Publication: Student Writers’ Responses

There has been a scarcity of writing instruction that aims to enable EFL students to write English articles for publication. This study aims to fill out the gap by developing a procedure for such an instruction and exploring student writers’ responses to the procedure. The design was descriptive, within the context of project-based learning. The subjects comprised some students of an English program at a public university in Bengkulu, Indonesia. Sampling was purposive and included 2 groups. The instrument was a questionnaire. The result showed that the subjects generally agreed to the steps for the writing instruction. The benefit levels of instructor’s activities were generally viewed as high; however, the benefit levels of students’ activities were perceived from low to high. Skills cultivated in the instruction were viewed as transferable to other tasks. The students wanted the final drafts to be directly processed by the editor prior to publication. Adequacy of access for electronic source was high while that of print source was moderate. The students expected that reference tools were provided by the institution. Students’ overall productivity was low. Further study is recommended to refine the instruction
