This research aimed to investigate Google Classroom's effect on blended learning on university students’ English ability. This research utilized a quasi-experimental design which included experimental and control group design.  The study participants comprised 68 students in the first semester at STMIK-AMIK Riau in Pekanbaru-Riau, Indonesia. This research instrument was an achievement test in multiple-choice questions administered to the participants in pre-test and post-test.  The quantitative data were collected by using pre-test and post-test to gauge the students’ English ability before and after conducting the treatments in both groups. The finding revealed that statistically, there was a significant difference in the mean score between the experimental and control group in the post-test. The experimental group that learned English through Google Classroom in blended learning achieved a significantly higher score than control group that learned English through the conventional method.  It was proved that the t-test was higher than the t-table value (5.270>2.042) at the level of significance 0.05 and p=0.000. This study concluded that blended learning through Google Classroom had contributed to the improvement of students’ English ability.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of the "patience training program" on the patience and life satisfaction levels of university students. The study was organized as a pre-test, post-test experiment and control group design. For a total of 30 students from which were 17 in the control group and 17 in the experimental group, patience training was given for 5 weeks. The "Patient Scale" developed by Schnitker (2010) and adapted to Turkish by Eliüşük and Arslan (2016) and the "Life Satisfaction Scale" developed by Diener, Emmons, Larsen and Griffin (1985) and adapted to Turkish by Dağlı and Baysal (2016) were used as a data collection tool in the study. The "Wilcoxon" test was used for the comparison of in-group differences in the analysis of obtained data and the "Mann-Whitney U" test was used in examining the differences between the two groups. As a result of the study, it was observed that the patience and life satisfaction average scores of students in the experimental group receiving "patience training" increased significantly, while there was no significant difference in the patience and life satisfaction averages scores of the control group students.

Alat ukur yang digunakan untuk pretest dan post test adalah skala agresivitas yang terdiri dari 55 pernyataan. Biblioterapi dilaksanakan sebanyak 7 sesi dengan menggunakan naskah-naskah cerita yang telah mendapat penilaian kelayakan dari Psikolog. Hasil analisis data menggunakan uji F menghasilkan perbedaan agresivitas yang signifikan antara gainscore kelompok eksperimen dan kontrol. Selain itu terdapat perbedaan agresivitas yang signifikan pada kelompok eksperimen sebelum dan sesudah intervensi, sedangkan pada kelompok control tidak ada perbedaan agresivitas yang signifikan antara pretest dan post test. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa biblioterapi kelompok dapat menurunkan agresivitas siswa.  This study aims to determine the effectiveness of bibliotherapy in reducing aggressiveness in elementary students. This study used an experimental method with the pretest-posttest control group design. The sample is chosen based on the results of the selection using an aggressiveness scale. Placement of the experimental group using randomization. A total of 18 students as the experimental group and 18 students as a control group. The measuring instrument used for the pretest and post-test is an aggressiveness scale consisting of 55 statements. Bibliotherapy was carried out as many as seven sessions using story scripts that had received a feasibility assessment from a Psychologist. The results of data analysis using the F test produced a significant difference in aggressiveness between the gain score of the experimental and control groups. The results showed that there were substantial differences in aggressiveness in the experimental group before and after the intervention. Whereas, in the control group, there was no significant difference in aggressiveness between the pretest and post-test. It can be concluded that bibliotherapy effectively reduces student aggressiveness.

Student Misconception

Biotechnology includes topic about gene and nuclear cloning is a very challenging subject to study at high school. Without proper Media aid, misconception will more likely to occur among students. The use of Inquiry-based Interactive Multimedia was expected to reduce the misconception about cloning process since it is visualized more clearly. This study was aimed to measure slope misconception of student and to analyze the application of Inquiry-based Interactive Multimedia to minimize student misconception on Biotechnology subject. The research was conducted at MAN 8 Jakarta on May 2012 using a quasi experimental method and pretest-posttest control group design. A total of 40 science students were taken equally from IPA 1 and IPA 2 classes at grade 10 to become experimental and control groups. They were selected by simple random sampling. A test of multiple choice questions with five alternative answers was used as the study instrument. To detect for any misconception, the test result was measured by Certainty of Response Index (CRI). Using this technique, there were 8 % misconception found on the pre-test and 7% on the post-test. As the conclusion, the use of Inquiry-based Interactive Multimedia was effective to minimize student misconception on Biotechnology subject.

This research aims to know the difference between the experimental group given intervention with Quranic counseling and a control group without intervention. This is quasi-experimental research that used untreated control group design with pretest and posttest. The subjects of this research were 20 students of UIN Antasari Banjarmasin that have passed the screening test. They were divided into an experimental group and control group, each of which consisted of 10 people.  After the data were analyzed using non-parametric Mann-Whitney test, it was found out that  = - 1553; sig = 0.121 (p>0,05), which means there was no significant difference between the level of depression on students in the experimental group after the intervention and the level of depression on students in control group. Afterward, according to the analysis result on Wilcoxon score in the post-test and interview by the experimental group, it was found out that Z score = - 0,609a and p score = 0,542; therefore, p > 0,05. It means Quranic counseling is relatively effective to decrease the level of depression on the students. Despite there was no significant difference between the experimental group and control group, the depression level on the experimental group, however, did not increase even though the Quranic counseling had been given over two weeks before.

Background: Anxiolytic premedication can reduce anxiety, improving procedural tolerance, and reduce postbronchoscopic complications. There was ongoing debate about the safety of bronchoscopist-administered sedation. Alprazolam as a surgical premedication can reduce anxiety. Alprazolam can be used as an adjuvant analgesic, to reduce anxiety-related breathlessness, and to reduce coughing as adjuvant antitussive. The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of alprazolam in patients undergoing bronchoscopy. Methods: A clinical study with experimental quasi pre-post test control group design, using consecutive sampling was performed in patients with lung tumor undergoing bronchoscopy in dr.Moewardi Hospital from February to March 2019. The study subjects were divided in experimental (alprazolam) and control groups (without alprazolam). The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), VAS for pain score, modified Borg score, and VAS for cough were measured in baseline, before, and after bronchoscopy. Results: Thirty two lung subjects were included in this study. The intervention groups showed decreased HADS score pre and post bronchoscopy (6.56±2.83 and 6.88±2.63), pain VAS scores (15.00±10.95 and 9.69±11.61), cough VAS score (11.56±8.89 and 27.19±17.89), and these were different significantly compared to control group. We found decreased mean of modified Borg in the study group though they were not significant compared to the control group. Conclusion: Alprazolam controlled anxiety, coughing, and pain in patients undergoing bronchoscopy. Alprazolam minimized breathlessness after bronchoscopy. (J Respir Indo. 2019; 39(4): 245-55)
