The Implementation of Storybird In Writing A Recount Text For Tenth Grade Students

The objective of this research is to investigate the effect of the implementation of Storybird in writing a recount text for tenth-grade students in Surabaya Senior High School. Storybird is a web application that supports the educational process. Storybird is a creative digital storytelling website that allows students to write their own stories using its writing feature. Therefore, this study aimed to determine if there was a significant difference in the post-test score for producing a recount text between the experimental and control groups after Storybird was implemented. A quantitative method was used in this study, and a true experimental randomized subject posttest-only control group was the design. The samples of this study were 61 tenth-grade students of Senior High School in Surabaya from the experimental class and control class. The data were gathered through post-test and analyzed by the t-test formula using SPSS computation. The findings of this study revealed that there was a significant difference in post-test scores between the experimental and control groups. The independent sample t-test results were significant at .012 < .05, showing a significant difference in the post-test results.

The results showed that the students often used Problem-Solving Strategy (M= 4), Global Reading Strategy (M= 3.04), and Support Reading Strategy (3.04). Furthermore, it was found that there was no correlation between the two variables (p-value= 0.790, >0.05). According to the result, good reading strategy does not affect the reading comprehension correlation.

Metaphorical Thinking of Junior High School Students in Solving Algebra Problems

Metaphorical thinking is one way of thinking in building abstract concepts through concrete things. Abstract ideas in metaphorical thinking are metaphorized into real-world things. This study aims to describe the metaphorical thinking profile of junior high school students in solving algebraic problems.

This study involved one of the seventh-grade students in a private junior high school in Surabaya who got the highest score on the preliminary test, namely the mathematical ability test. The data collecting technique employed in this study was problem-solving assignments and semi-structured interviews. Time triangulation was performed to assess the data from this study's credibility. Based on the analysis results, the subject has not been optimal in revealing the CREATE criteria for metaphorical thinking. The research subject has not been able to find a suitable metaphor for the algebra problem, so the subject did not reveal the Connect and Relate criteria. However, the subject revealed Explore criteria by designing mathematical models on the algebraic problem. The subject was able to determine the mathematical processes needed to solve the problem for the Analyze criteria, and the subject was also able to explain the procedures she took before. The subject discovered the Transform criteria by inferring and interpreting data based on earlier work. Last, the subject revealed the Experience criteria by explaining a new challenge using the model that had been created previously.

The effect of the structured inquiry learning model on students' critical and collaborative thinking skills

The instruments used in this study were observation sheets, questionnaires and tests. There are two ways to analyze the data in this study, namely descriptively for students' learning motivation and hypothesis testing with t-test for students' cognitive learning outcomes. The results showed that the percentage of students' learning motivation in the experimental class was 71.7% in the good category and the control class was 69.9% in the good category. While the average cognitive learning outcomes of students in the experimental class is 70.26 and in the control class is 60.4. Analysis of learning outcomes with t-test at a significant level of 5% obtained tcount of 3.56 while the value of ttable with dk 36 of 2.04. This means that tcount ≥ ttable (3.56 ≥ 2.04).

The Difference of Lipid Profile Pre and Post Endurance Exercise in Obese Male Adolescents

Obesity among adolescents has short-term and long-term consequences in terms of physical and psychosocial development. In adolescence obesity often causes serious complications such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, dysglycemia, fatty liver, psychosocial complications. Dyslipidemia in obesity is closely related to the occurrence of atherosclerosis which often leads to coronary heart disease (CHD) and vascular disorders. Dyslipidemia is indicated by an increase in total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LDL), or triglycerides (TG), or a decrease in high density lipoprotein (HDL). Boys have a higher visceral fat ratio than girls. Physical exercise without dietary restrictions has been shown to improve blood lipid profiles and reduce fat mass. Endurance exercise increases fat oxidation during submaximal exercise. Zumba has been shown to reduce fat mass and improve aerobic fitness. To analyze the effect of endurance exercise with Zumba fitness 3x/week for 8 weeks on the lipid profile of obese male adolescents at senior high school Surabaya. This study was conducted from July 2020 to August 2020. The research subjects were 12 teenage boys aged 14-18 years at senior high school Surabaya, with obesity nutritional status p>95 according to CDC 2000. Research subjects were given an endurance exercise intervention with Zumba fitness 3 times a week for 8 weeks, light-moderate intensity 30-60 minutes. The volume of exercise is gradually increased by starting with an increase in duration and then the intensity of the exercise includes whole body movement with a combination of aerobics and dance. This study was conducted without calorie restriction. Pre- and post-exercise assessment of lipid profile (total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL and LDL). TG, HDL, and total cholesterol before and after exercise had no significant difference which is TG = 0.106, HDL = 0.259 and total cholesterol = 0.188. Pre- and post-exercise LDL data had a significant difference with a significance value of 0.014 for LDL. In this study, there was a 6.8% decrease in TG; decreased LDL 4.9%; increase in HDL 12.49%; and a 3.6% reduction in total cholesterol. Endurance exercise with zumba fitness 3 times in a week for 8 weeks in obese male adolescents without calorie restriction, can improve LDL lipid profile, but does not improve TG, HDL and total cholesterol.
