Bronchopneumonia is a disease that occurs at the distal end of the bronchioles, where this portion of the bronchiole is blocked by mucopurulent exudate. One of the main problems of children with bronchopneumonia is an increase in excessive sputum secretion that will affect the process of oxygen exchange, which ultimately can reduce the oxygen saturation in the blood of the patients.  The purpose of this study was to determine the differences between postural drainage and effective cough exercises in nebulizer intervention on oxygen saturation changes in children aged 3-5 years with bronchopneumonia.  Analytical quasi-experimental study design with pre- and post-test approach among 30 children in a hospital was utilized. Sampling was done with non-probability sampling technique. The methods used were postural drainage and effective cough. The result was analyzed using t-Test.  The mean difference in oxygen saturation value in the postural drainage group was higher (4.53 %) than in the effective cough group (3.64 %). Result of unpaired t-Test indicated a p = 0.343. Thus, there is no difference in postural drainage and effective cough exercises in nebulizer intervention to oxygen saturation change in bronchopneumonia. Future studies can be done on the effects of these methods when applied before nebulizer intervention.

This article is written based on a research done to solve students’ difficulties in improving their vocabulary skill in MKU classes at Universitas Negeri padang. According to some English teachers and students, teaching vocabulary through memorizing the list was very boring and should be avoided. Besides, it was difficult for the students to write correct spelling for certain vocabularies. To overcome these issues, gamification strategy namely Jumbled-Letter game was applied in an experimental study. The design used in this study was one group pre-test post-test design and the sample was chosen through simple random sampling technique. The data was collected through pre-test and post-test. The data then was analyzed using T Paired test (SPSS 23). Based on the data calculation, the mean score of pre-test was 50.87 and the mean score of post-test was 76.23, and sig. 2 tailed test was < 0.05. Based on T Paired test analysis and interpretation, it was found that the mean score on post-test was increased and the significance score shows that the strategy was significantly effective. Thus, Jumbled-Letter Game was effective to boost learners’ interest and improve their vocabulary mastery.

Play therapy helps to meet the emotional needs of children who have an illness or surgery & are in the hospital. A quasi-experimental outcome research study was conducted in two hospitals in different areas of Nadiad, with one assigned as the control and the other as the experimental hospital. Purposive sampling technique was used to select total 40 samples. Modied Anxiety Scale was used to assess the level of anxiety. The data was analyzed by using the descriptive and inferential statistics. The result of present study reveals that there is a reduced level of anxiety after administering the play therapy in experimental group. The mean pre-test anxiety score (53.70) was higher than the mean post-test (23.95) anxiety score in experimental group with the mean difference of 29.75, which shows there is a reduce level of anxiety after administering play therapy in experimental group. The post test anxiety score of control group (42.9) is higher thant the post test anxiety score (23.95) of experimental group, which shows there is a higher level of anxiety in control group. There is no signicant association between level of anxiety and demographic variables.
