Evaluation Of Biology Teachers' Knowledge in Sidoarjo Regarding the Concept of Poliovirus and Wolbachia Infected Mosquitoes

Biology is a dynamic and constantly developing science. The Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia reported nine cases of childhood polio in East Java in January 2024. In addition, the Ministry of Health launched a pilot project to implement Wolbachia-infected mosquitoes as an innovation to control dengue fever in five big cities in Indonesia. This health problem is studied in biology lessons on viruses in senior high school. This paper aims to analyze the knowledge of the concepts of polioviruses and Wolbachia-infected mosquitoes in the biology teacher community in Sidoarjo. The respondents were 43 biology teachers in Sidoarjo. Respondents' prior knowledge was measured by pretest. After the respondent takes the pretest, the respondent gets the concept of the virus. After the material, respondents do a post-test. 11 pretest questions and 11 post-test questions are packaged in Google form. The results showed that all participants participated in the activity from start to finish, taking the pretest, listening to the material, and doing the post-test. The pretest mean score was 40.18, and the post-test mean score was 91.36. The highest pretest score was 81.81. The highest pretest score was 100. A total of 15 teachers (34.88%) were unsure that Wolbachia-infected mosquito was the best solution to reduce disease. Twenty-one respondents (48.83%) agreed mainly with society's concern that the Wolbachia-infected mosquito is dangerous for humans. Respondents' knowledge increased after receiving the concept of the virus

Developing WebGIS Using Google Earth Engine for Carbon Monoxide Spatial Monitoring in Surabaya Using Sentinel-5P

Abstract Geospatial information has various beneficial to support sustainable environment and human health, such as monitoring distribution of pollutant gases. Carbon Monoxide (CO) is one of harmful pollutant gases. So, preventing the increases of CO and its wider spreading in the atmosphere is very important and also can be as an initial step to mitigate the CO increases. It is often the case that CO concentrations in many big cities are higher than those in its surrounding cities. The current study was conducted in Surabaya city, which is known as one of the major big cities in Indonesia and pose high population density and urban activities. Sentinel-5P imageries were used as the primary data processed and analysed using Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform in order to estimates CO concentration and its distribution in Surabaya. WebGIS for CO monitoring was developed using GEE as the final output in this research. This allowing the results of CO concentration and distribution to be accessed by public. Temporal of Sentinel-5P imagery starting from 2018 up to present were used as the primary data for extracting the CO in Surabaya. The WebGIS developed in this study can be seen at https://ee-devikarahma28.projects.earthengine.app/view/co-distribution-of-surabaya-city. Based on the WebGIS that describes the CO distribution in Surabaya, this study showed the highest CO concentration was in 2018, with values range from 0.294 to 0.331mol/m2. While the lowest CO was in year 2022 with values ranges from 0.0261 to 0.0298 mol/m2. The highest CO concentration has frequently occurred in the central of Surabaya, while the lowest CO concentration was in the east Surabaya.

Modification of activated carbon through chemical-physical activation method with KOH and 60Co gamma irradiation from banana leaf waste

Abstract Until now waste is still a problem in many big cities in Indonesia. In addition, the amount of waste increases as the population increases. Banana leaf waste is no exception, which is included in other types of waste, which accounts for 6.33% of the total waste in Indonesia in 2022. Utilization of banana leaf waste as a raw material for activated carbon production can also be an alternative to reducing the amount of wasted banana leaf waste because they contain various kinds of organic compounds. Activated carbon is widely used as an adsorbent in various sectors, especially in the industrial sector. Production of activated carbon must go through an activation process to enlarge the surface pores either chemically or physically, or even both. This study aims to compare the results of activated carbon surface area and functional groups using the chemical-physical activation method from banana leaf biomass raw materials with KOH and gamma irradiation at various doses. The research method used is an experimental method consisting of 4 stages: dehydration, carbonization, activation, and characterization. The research was started by dehydrating the leaves and continued with the carbonization stage at 350°C for 30 minutes. Carbon was divided into four samples that consisted of 1 blank and 3 test materials that activated with 30% (w/v) KOH solution for 24 hours and gamma-irradiated with a dose of 10, 30, and 50 kGy. Results were characterized using FTIR and BET. The effect of gamma 60Co irradiation on the activated carbon material from banana leaf waste can increase the peak transmittance value of the activated carbon functional group due to the formation and reaction of free radicals on its surface. Increase in the surface area (from 6.504 to 24.04 m2/g) is also associated with an increase in the absorbed dose due to the formation of more free radicals. However, the surface area obtained is not as expected due to the possibility of pore blockage and excessive activation time, which causes the surface area of the material to be small.

Research data collection techniques consist of interviews and questionnaires. The research data analysis technique used an interactive model consisting of data condensation, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of this research show that the teachers propose the reconstruction of indigenous science into scientific science and its integration in learning based on the national curriculum. Analysis of the needs for multimodal reconstruction of indigenous science in science learning in elementary schools shows a very important category. Multimodal indigenous science is proposed from Javanese culture which is specified with the needs of the elementary school sciences scope with the integration of indigenous science carried out in the content, process and product aspects. The results of the initial study recommend that teachers and future researchers can develop learning tools with a multimodal indigenous science approach in the Merdeka Curriculum to strengthen scientific literacy and care for the environment in elementary schools.

Review of Slum Management Policies in Urban Areas

Urban slum areas in Indonesia began to feel very disruptive to city mechanisms and dynamics in the late 70s, so the government launched Village Improvement programs such as the Moh Slum Improvement Program. Husni Thamrin in Jakarta, Dewi Sartika Village Improvement Program in Bandung, and other village improvements carried out in big cities in Indonesia. While these programs have not been able to solve existing problems, city dynamics are running so fast, especially after reform. The development of cities with very high population pressure is beyond the government's ability to control them. On the other hand, the need for employment and business is very large due to the financial crisis and the phenomenon of job cuts (PHK), because many companies are going bankrupt. This problem must be borne by the city ecosystem which has many limitations. People in every city, because they are pressured by the necessities of life, can do business in urban areas wherever they think there is a chance to live. In this situation, the growth of slum areas in urban areas not only occurs in residential areas, but also occurs in business areas and along road routes which are still possible to use as places of business and residence. Of course, this cannot be tolerated, and the government needs to respond through appropriate policies now and in the future, considering that slum areas are now evenly distributed to all cities in Indonesia and not only in big cities.

Penggunaan Pseudosa japonica (Bambu Jepang) sebagai Sound Barrier Alami di Markas Militer Komando Pasukan Khusus

The development of the times will always be accompanied by an increase in population, so infrastructure and a comfortable place to live are needed. However, currently many residential areas are close to public facilities such as stations, highways, airports, and so on. This condition causes noise intensity. Noise intensity can cause health, psychological, communication and productivity problems. Noise is a source of anxiety or pollution, especially in big cities in Indonesia. So, efforts are needed to deal with this. One solution is a natural barrier using Japanese bamboo plants (Pseudosa japonica). Noise measurements are carried out based on the Decree of the Minister of the Environment Number 48 of 1996, namely in a simple way. This research aims to determine the effect of using noise dampening using Japanese bamboo plants and the factors that influence it From the measurements and tests that have been carried out, it is concluded that this barrier can have a significant influence on noise reduction. Noise has little effect on temperature and altitude. The reason is the position of the building is still higher than the position of the bamboo plants which serve as barriers. The highest Ls values ​​are found on Mondays and Saturdays because these 2 days are the start of community activities and the start of holidays. Based on these results, it is necessary to improve the source and arrangement of Japanese bamboo plants according to technical instructions.

Development of solid recovery fuel for power generation with bacterial bio-drying of municipal solid waste in Lombok Island West Nusa Tenggara

Abstract The growth of waste in big cities in Indonesia increases sharply every year. The Government’s ability to manage solid waste only reaches 40.09% in urban areas and 1.02% in rural areas, so the right policies are needed so that Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) does not save potential problems that will impact the future. The waste problem is no longer just a matter of cleanliness and the environment but has become a social problem that has the potential to cause conflict. The most likely solution to solving the MSW problem is to use it as a source of alternative fuel, which can be done by a mechanical-biological treatment technology into Solid Recovery Fuel (SRF). The proposed SRF processing method is straightforward and requires a little technology; thus, it could be developed at the community level. The MSW is collected and processed by communities and then sold to power plants or factories or used in communities to replace solid fuels such as wood or charcoal. Compared with the standard RDF and SRF specifications, MSW SRF falls under medium-grade Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) or SRF specifications. Further comparison with coal, water hyacinth SRF, and sorghum shows that MSW SRF has several advantages, such as low fixed carbon, sulfur, and moisture, that could be beneficial for combustion performance, which concludes that MSW has potential and meet the specification as an alternative fuel for thermal power plant or other industry that utilizes thermal energy. This paper proposes a processing methodology for municipal solid waste into alternative energy. The method could guide local people in using biomass resources to improve local economic prosperity.

Manfaat E-Commerce terhadap Dunia Bisnis

Electronic Commerce (e-commerce) is the process of buying, selling or exchanging products, services and information via computer networks. e-commerce is part of e-business, where the scope of e-business is broader, not only commercial but also includes business partners, customer service, job vacancies. Apart from www network technology, e-commerce technology also requires a database, email or electronic mail (e-mail), and non-computer technology as well as other delivery systems, and payment tools for e-commerce. With electronic commerce (e-commerce), customers can access and place orders from various places. Considering the increasingly advanced era of technology, customers who want to access e-commerce do not have to be everywhere, this is because in big cities in Indonesia there are many places that provide internet access facilities just by using a laptop/notebook. . or with a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) using wifi technology. Thus, currently it is very necessary and desirable for companies to implement e-commerce services. The use of e-commerce in Indonesia is still very limited. From the existing background, the author will discuss how e-commerce is utilized for business purposes.

Policy dialogue: Key factors for the success of transit-oriented development infrastructure 3.0 in big cities in Indonesia

This research aims to determine the factors driving the success of four large cities in Indonesia in implementing Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) infrastructure policies beyond the eight TOD 3.0 Principles. Only a few studies like this have been conducted. The research uses qualitative methods and is supported by in-depth interviews with stakeholders, community leaders, community groups, and service users. The research findings reveal six themes: policy dialogue, organizational structure and coordination, changes in community habits, resources, dissemination and communication, and transportation and connectivity services. The characteristics of the community in the study area that prioritize deliberation are important determinants in policy dialogue and are involved in determining policy formulation. The city government has established a comprehensive organizational and coordination structure for the village and sub-district levels.

Revealing the Link Between Open Minded, Uncertainty Readiness and Optimism in Business Performance for Food and Beverage Businesses

Abstract Business performance is an urgent topic to explore because there are many aspects that influence it. One thing that can guarantee business performance is open-minded entrepreneurship, uncertain readiness, and entrepreneurial optimism. In this context, businesses in the form of Food and Beverage (F&B) have become popular in the last few decades in Indonesia. From this research, it investigates the effects of open-minded entrepreneurs, uncertain readiness, and entrepreneurial optimism on business performance. Apart from that, it also dissects the relevance of open-minded entrepreneurship and uncertain readiness on business performance which is mediated by entrepreneurial optimism. The quantitative method was operated via an online survey involving cafe and restaurant owners (N = 128) spread across several big cities in Indonesia. Then, the data was analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS). As a result, of the five hypotheses developed, three were accepted. Open-minded entrepreneurship, uncertain readiness, and entrepreneurial optimism are proven to influence business performance. On the one hand, the other two hypotheses are rejected, where open-minded entrepreneurship or uncertain readiness have no impact on business performance through entrepreneurial optimism. By implication, the output of the research is interesting to highlight in the future. Optimism in too high a capacity can harm the business. This is triggered by the level of vigilance and actions of business owners in making decisions based on irrational emotions.

Design Of Karo Traditional Virtual Museum In Medan City

One of the biggest cities in Indonesia is Medan, which serves as the provincial capital of North Sumatra and is growing pretty quickly. There are many different cultures ingrained in the city of Medan itself. The several varied tribes who call the city home demonstrate this. In Indonesia, diversity and cultural distinctions are highly valued. As a result, it is imperative to conserve the artistic traditions of the many ethnic groups that make up Medan. A museum is, broadly speaking, an organization or non-profit that works to educate and serve the public. Its open-minded approach is used in the gathering, preservation, study, sharing, and public display of actual and virtual artifacts for educational purposes. both learning and enjoyment. A museum's primary purpose is to gather, preserve, and periodically display artifacts for the general public or select guests. The primary issue is that there is now no Karo Museum in Medan City, despite the fact that it is one of the biggest cities in Indonesia and was founded by a member of the Karo Tribe. Consequently, it is anticipated that the layout of the Karo Traditional Virtual Museum would offer more thorough historical details regarding the history of Medan City and the Karo Culture.

Psycho-social conditions of urban communities in the complexity of waste management: Are awareness and waste banks the main solution?

Waste management in urban areas is a critical issue in developing countries. As an environmental awareness emergency country, Indonesia faces significant waste production, particularly in its third-largest metropolis, Bandung. With the majority of its population utilizing cell phones or computers, the city has generated approximately 1500 tons of waste per day in 2022. Even though Bandung is one of the big cities in Indonesia, a staggering 54.7% of the total waste finds its way to landfills, exerting adverse impacts on the economic, social, and public health sectors. The government has pursued remedies through initiatives such as waste banks, collection services, and public education through social media. However, when delving into the intricacies of waste management, the psycho-social conditions of the community should be considered, which are often characterized by an ethos of tireless work, colloquially referred to as “crazy to work” or “hustle culture.” Consequently, waste, including its associated health risks, may be perceived as a marginal concern.This research assessed public environmental awareness and the willingness to contribute to diverse waste management endeavors financially. Such endeavors may be in household waste collection or the establishment of government-operated facilities, such as waste banks and waste collection services within the psycho-social conditions of urban communities. By employing a quantitative approach, the study surveyed 74 heads of urban households in Bandung using convenience sampling techniques and analyzed the data using SPSS tools to address the formulated hypotheses. Results demonstrate the effect of household waste management practices on the environmental awareness of urban communities. Nevertheless, the influence of waste management services, the perspectives of waste bank management, or concerns about infectious waste–related diseases on the environmental awareness of urban communities are generally not substantiated. However, the latter two aspects exert an influence on the community's inclination to support waste collection services financially. In sum, this study suggests that cultural and knowledge factors in Bandung may impede progress in the environmental sector. Therefore, recommendations encompass stringent environmental policies and laws, technological integration, and subsidies for waste reduction efforts in Indonesia's urban waste management practices.
