River water is one of type water surface which is a lot of finding in South Kalimantan. Generally, this water used by the citizen for cooking and bathing. But along with era growth, this river becomes as disposal of various industrial waste. The contamination of heavy metal like Fe, Mn, Pb, Cd, and turbidity enhance progressively and degrade the water quality. Some natural substance which can be used to improve river water quality is active charcoal from Musa paradisiaca and Manihot utilissima shell which is easy to get. Target research is determined to find optimum dose of active charcoal from Musa paradisiaca and Manihot utilissima shell that capable to degrade heavy metal contamination and turbidity in water river. It used experimentally with pretest and post-test with control group design. A result of research showed the optimum dose of active charcoal Musa paradisiaca shell was 15 gram , it could absorb Pb 28,8% and Mn 24,6%, but 10 gram can degrade turbidity until 83,8 %, while the optimum dose of Manihot utilissima shell to 25,4% Pb and degraded 77,5% of turbidity was 15 gram. Statistical test result with Kruskal Wallis got the p-value less than 0,05 it meant there was a difference between the treatment of active charcoal from Musa paradisiaca and Manihot utilissima shell in degrading the contamination. A conclusion is those active charcoal having a potential to enhance the water river quality. Suggested to use another activator to the potential like stirring, time of contact and the different mass.

Abstrak: Optimum Dose of Hydrated Lime for pH Neutralizing  in Coal Mine Waste-water. Coal mines release chemicals such as pyrite (Fe2S), produce acid waste water (H2SO4). This research aims to know the optimum dose of hydrated lime to neutralize the pH of coal mining wastewater. This research was experimental study with pretest-postest with control group design, measured pH before and after treatment. Coal mines wastewater was sampled with composite sampling method. The result showed that the average of waste-water’s pH before added 2% hydrated lime were 4,9, while wastewater added by variated dose of hydrated lime, the pH changed. Added 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 ml hydrated lime, the pH particularly to be 5,3, 7,1, 8,2, 9,7 and 10,5. Statistical test using One Way Anova showed the p value = 0,000, ore less than α = 0,05. There was the difference significantly between pH’s average of coal mine wastewater at variation in dose of 2% hydrated lime. Test of Linier regression found equation; y = 4,906 + 0,649x with correlation value (R) = 0,982. Optimum dose of 2% hydrated lime for pH neutralizing 1 litre of coal mine wastewater was 3,23, pH=7.Keyword:  Air limbah batubara; larutan kapur; pH

Abstract Tujuan penelitian bertujuan untuk mengetahui peningkatan kemampuan kreativitas matematika siswa yang diajar dengan model pencapaian konsep lebih tinggi dari siswa yang diajar dengan pembelajaran konvensional. Mengetahui interaksi antara model pembelajaran pencapaian konsep dengan tingkat kemampuan matematika siswa terhadap peningkatan kemampuan kreativitas matematika siswa. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di SMA Negeri 5 Medan dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 80 siswa dari 364 siswa SMA kelas X melalui teknik random sampling, Penelitian ini merupakan suatu studi eksperimen dengan desain penelitian pre-test-post-test control group design. Data diperoleh melalui nilai semester untuk kemampuan awal matematis (KAM), tes kemampuan pemahaman matematis, tes kemampuan kreativitas matematis. Data dianalisis dengan uji ANAVA dua jalur. Hasil analisis data menunjukkan bahwa rata-rata tes kemampuan kreativitas eksperimen dan kontrol adalah 13,3 dan 7,58 dengan p-value (2-tailed) adalah 0, dengan 0 < α = 0,05 maka terdapat perbedaan kemampuan kreativitas matematik siswa yang diajarkan dengan Model Pencapaian Konsep (MPK) dan Pendekatan Pembelajaran Konvensional, nilai signifikan sebesar 0,732, karena 0,732 > 0,05 maka tidak ada interaksi antara pendekatan pembelajaran dengan kemampuan awal siswa terhadap perbedaan kemampuan kreativitas matematik siswa. .

Introduction The implementation of nursing clinical learning in Indonesia has several challenges that require innovation in the learning method strategy. The method that has been used so far focuses on the hierarchical relationship between lecturers/preceptors and students, so that there are many shortcomings in learning outcomes. The application of the method of active learning with Peer Learning (PL) and Problem Based Learning (PBL) techniques has proven effective in classroom learning, but its rarely found in clinical learning. Objective The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the PL and PBL towards the achievement of clinical learning in nursing students. Methods The research method used a true experiment with a posttest only control group design, the sampling technique was taken by randomize control trial. An instrument for clinical learning achievement using AssCE. Results The analysis was carried out as descriptive and bivariate. The results showed the mean in the experimental group was 7.059 and the control group was 6.325. Further statistical test results were obtained p-value = 0.001 (p < 0.05) which showed that the average score there were differences in clinical learning achievement development scores. Conclusion Clinical learning using peer learning and PBL methods can directly improve various aspects of student competency achievement.

The application of multivariate statistical techniques including cluster analysis and principal component analysis-multiple linear regression (PCA-MLR) was successfully used to classify the river pollution level in Taiwan and identify possible pollution sources. Water quality and heavy metal monitoring data from the Taiwan Environmental Protection Administration (EPA) was evaluated for 14 major rivers in four regions of Taiwan with the Erren River classified as the most polluted river in the country. Biochemical oxygen demand (6.1 ± 2.38), ammonia (3.48 ± 3.23), and total phosphate (0.65 ± 0.38) mg/L concentration in this river was the highest of the 14 rivers evaluated. In addition, heavy metal levels in the following rivers exceeded the Taiwan EPA standard limit (lead: 0.01, copper: 0.03, and manganese: 0.03) mg/L concentration: lead-in the Dongshan (0.02 ± 0.09), Jhuoshuei (0.03 ± 0.03), and Xinhuwei Rivers (0.02 ± 0.02) mg/L; copper: in the Dahan (0.036 ± 0.097), Laojie (0.06 ± 1.77), and Erren Rivers are (0.05 ± 0.158) mg/L; manganese: in all rivers. A total 72% of the water pollution in the Erren River was estimated to originate from industrial sources, 16% from domestic black water, and 12% from natural sources and runoff from other tributaries. Our research demonstrated that applying PCA-MLR and cluster analysis on long-term monitoring water quality would provide integrated information for river water pollution management and future policy making.

<p><span>Baby Massage and Spa was a traditional effort that uses a holistic approach through comprehensive care using a combination of massage and water therapy methods that are carried out in an integrated manner to balance the body, mind, and feelings. Age 3-6 months is the right time for babies to do massage and spa. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of baby massage and spa on the growth of infants aged 3-5 months in Pringsewu District in 2018. This study uses a quasi-experimental approach with research design pre and post-test with control group design. The purposive sampling technique was taken with a sample of 30 infants as the intervention group and 30 infants as the control group. Data were processed using computerization and analyzed using the T-Test. The results showed that there were significant differences between body weight, body length and baby head circumference in the pre and post-treatment. There was no significant difference in the average increase in infant weight between babies who were carried out by baby massage and spa with babies who were not carried out by baby massage and spa with p-value 0.116. There is a significant difference in the baby's body length and head circumference performed by baby massage and spa with those not carried out by baby massage and spa with p-value 0.000. Baby Massage and Spa has a significant effect on increasing the growth of babies aged 3-5 months.</span></p><p><span> </span></p>
