Analysis of Sentences for Deaf Children in Primary School

This study aims to find out the ability to compose sentences of deaf children in outstanding schools. This study was conducted using qualitative case study method in the form of interviews and documentation studies of students' learning outcomes, interviews were conducted on 14 elementary school teachers. This research was conducted by two schools, namely in SLB-B YRTRW and SLB YAAT surakarta. The results showed that deaf children have problems in composing sentences and understanding the meaning of sentences. This is due to, 1) the receptive ability of children who are hampered by hearing ability, 2) the interest in learning deaf children in indonesian language is low, and 3) the use of non-standard sign language systems in communication between deaf children in activities outside the classroom. According to the class teacher, most deaf children also think that indonesian language is a difficult and boring lesson. Therefore, teachers need to increase innovation and creativity in the delivery of Indonesian language materials to be more interesting, either by using media or props that are fun and worth using to increase the motivation of learning deaf children and help the understanding of materials composing Indonesian sentences

Pengembangan Teknik Deteksi Fusarium Patogen pada Umbi Benih Bawang Merah (Allium Ascalonicum) di Laboratorium

Penyakit layu fusarium yang disebabkan oleh Fusarium oxysporum merupakan salah satu penyakit penting pada bawang merah (Allium ascalonicum). Sebagian besar petani menggunakan umbi sebagai benih dan diketahui bahwa beberapa patogen dapat terbawa oleh benih seperti Fusarium oxysporum. Oleh karena itu diperlukan pengujian kesehatan benih untuk mencegah penyebaran penyakit tersebut. Salah satu metode sederhana dan efektif untuk digunakan di laboratorium adalah blotter test. Namun beberapa strain F. oxysporum terbukti tidak bersifat patogenik, serta tidak dapat dibedakan secara morfologi dengan strain yang bersifat patogenik. Penelitian ini bertujuan menentukan parameter uji dan jumlah sampel minimal dalam deteksi Fusarium oxysporum pada umbi bawang merah dengan metode blotter test. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa parameter nekrosis pada basal plate umbi bawang merah mempunyai koefisien korelasi (r) sebesar 0,77 terhadap tingkat infeksi pada growing on test (GOT) dan lebih besar dari tingkat infeksi fusarium (0,34) pada blotter test. Dari 195 isolat Fusarium spp. yang diuji, diketahui bahwa sebagian besar isolat bersifat nonpatogenik. Penentuan jumlah minimal umbi dengan plot kurva rerata jumlah nekrosis pada basal plate dan standar deviasi, menunjukkan jumlah sampel umbi minimal untuk blotter test adalah 150 umbi. Perhitungan jumlah sampel dengan formal probability statement yang menunjukkan jumlah umbi minimal untuk blotter test adalah 138 umbi

Improving the Spacer-Concrete Interface for Bond Strength and Durability

Spacers are important devices in reinforced concrete that are used to support reinforcing steel during concreting in order to achieve the required concrete cover. They are placed at every meter length or less of steel reinforcement and left permanently in the structure. However, it has been shown that the weak interface between spacer and concrete is highly porous and microcracked. This lowers the resistance of the concrete cover to ingress of aggressive agents causing degradation. This study aims to address this problem by improving spacer design to enhance bond strength and durability of the spacer-concrete interface. Cementitious spacers with a range of surface textures were produced prior to casting into concrete. Samples were prepared with CEM I Portland cement at a water/cement (w/c) ratio of 0.4 and cured for 3, 7, and 28 days in a fog room and then conditioned at 50°C to equilibrium moisture content. The spacer-concrete interface was then tested for tensile bond strength and mass transport properties including oxygen diffusivity, oxygen permeability, water absorption and electrical conductivity. The results were compared against control samples made of either the entire cementitious spacer or concrete. The measured surface properties were then correlated to the measured bond strength and transport properties to establish the effects of surface texture on the spacer-concrete interface
