Yossita Wisman, Bernisa Bernisa, Garry William Dony, Sontoe Sontoe — Thu, 30 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Social and cultural change is a phenomenon that occurs continuously in every society. These changes encompass shifts in social structures and cultural patterns influenced by various internal and external factors. Education, as an integral part of society, is also affected by these dynamics, influencing curriculum design, teaching methodologies, and educational management. Rapid and revolutionary changes demand an adaptive educational system that remains relevant to contemporary needs. Therefore, understanding the relationship between socio-cultural changes and education is crucial in designing educational policies that are more responsive and adaptive to social dynamics.

Laila Rahmawati, Muhamad Arief Rafsanjani, Widya Permata Dilla, Tria Pebrianti — Thu, 27 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Innovative mathematics education plays a crucial role in providing meaningful learning experiences. This approach can be realized by linking mathematical concepts to everyday situations, making the learning process more relevant and engaging for students. One approach that can be applied is introducing local cultural values, which are reflected in the integration of cultural elements into mathematics education. This process is known as ethnomathematics. Ethnomathematics-based learning can be seen in various motifs of Benang Bintik batik, which is a distinctive feature of the batik from Central Kalimantan Province. This research is exploratory, aimed at discovering the factors that influence the occurrence of a phenomenon or to understand the research object more deeply. The study was conducted at the Batik Benang Bintik Paramita production house located on Badak XXV Street, Bukit Tunggal Subdistrict, Palangka Raya City. Data was collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results revealed information about the production process of stamped and hand-drawn batik, as well as some of the philosophies embedded in the Benang Bintik batik motifs. The philosophies in these motifs include hopes to God or ancestors, humans, and other creatures (the balanga motif); depictions of the three levels of the universe according to the beliefs of the Dayak Ngaju tribe (the batang garing motif); symbols of courage, protection, strength, and Dayak identity (the talawang motif); the bond between humans (the kalalawit and bajakah kalalawit motifs); and nobility and protection (the enggang bird motif). Additionally, the Benang Bintik motifs also contain mathematical concepts such as points, lines, angles, flat shapes, and geometric transformations. Therefore, these motifs can be used as innovative, contextual learning media for mathematics, while supporting the preservation of local culture.

Immunity and Body Health through Effective Physical Exercise

Garry William Dony, Bernisa Bernisa, Fahrul Razzi, Yossita Wisman — Tue, 18 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Measured and well-planned exercise, along with a balanced nutritional intake, are essential factors in maintaining the body's immunity. Regular physical activity can enhance the function of the heart, lungs, and circulatory system, as well as play a role in preventing diseases such as heart disease, hypertension, and stroke. However, not all types of exercise can be performed by the public, especially during a pandemic. Several factors need to be considered, including accessibility, time efficiency, and the availability of equipment and space. To support immune enhancement, exercise should adhere to the FITT principles (Frequency, Intensity, Time, Type). The recommended frequency of exercise is 3–5 times per week, with a moderate intensity (65%–75% of maximum heart rate). The suggested duration is 20–30 minutes per session, which can be increased up to one hour depending on individual capability. Recommended types of exercise are aerobic activities such as stationary cycling, walking, jogging, or jumping in place. Additionally, exercising in a positive mood can boost endorphin production, contributing to improved immune resilience.

Students' Perceptions of the Implementation of Research-Based Learning on Heat Transfer Material

Fri, 21 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Physics is one of the subjects that plays a role in developing analytical, critical, inductive, and deductive skills in problem-solving through a scientific approach. However, various studies reveal that this subject is less popular because many students perceive it as abstract, difficult to understand, and less relevant to everyday life, resulting in a low understanding of physics concepts. This study aims to explore students' perceptions of the implementation of research-based learning in the heat transfer material. The research subjects were 20 students enrolled in the Thermodynamics course of the Physics Education Study Program at FKIP, University of Palangka Raya. The instrument used was a perception questionnaire. The results showed that students had a positive perception of their learning experience using a research-based approach. Based on these findings, research-based learning can be considered an alternative strategy for more meaningful learning, especially in physics education.

E-Learning is an innovation in education that has a very large contribution to changes in the learning process, where the learning process is not only limited to lecture activities with simple media but the delivery of learning materials can be visualized in various formats and forms that are more dynamic and more interactive so that students will be more motivated. SMAN 2 Kuala Kapuas is one of the schools that provides Quipper School services for students from grades X to XII. Quipper School provides two services for its users, namely free and paid services. Lack of achievement of mathematics material received by students at school, then students prefer to use the paid service Quipper School to facilitate understanding in absorbing Mathematics material. The method used in this study uses a quantitative research type because it tests the hypothesized theory. Using primary data through questionnaires. Hypothesis testing uses simple linear regression data analysis techniques assisted by using the SPSS version 26 program application. The results of E-Learning Quipper School research on student interest in learning, it can be concluded that the constant value of student interest in learning (Y) is 28.484 and if the value of E-Learning Quipper School increases by 1% then variable Y will increase by 0.348 so that E-Learning Quipper School has a positive impact of 19.5% on student interest in learning Class XII SMAN 2 Kuala Kapuas.
