Study of this research investigates the role of visuospatial representation using Wimba model to improve student’s conceptual mastery based on gender in learning Human Urinary System. The method used in this research was experimental research with matching pretest-posttest comparison group design. The sample was taken based on gender classes consisting of boys class (n=21) and girls class (n=9) in one of Bilingual School in Bandung. The quantitative data of this research was investigated through the objective test, while the supportive qualitative data gathered through Likert-Scale. The conceptual mastery of both classes measured based on Bloom’s taxonomy cognitive domain through an objective test. Data processing was done by independent sample t-test. The result of this research shows that there are significant differences in conceptual mastery improvement between girl class and boy class by using visuospatial representation as a model. The research indicates that girl class is outperformed in conceptual mastery almost in each cognitive domain than boy class, and girl class also shows more positive responses toward learning using visuospatial representation than boy class.

Purpose: This study explores outcomes of treatment provided by specialized units within the social welfare sector in Sweden to clients seeking help with hypersexual behavior. Method: The participants were 27 males and 1 female ( M = 40.3 years) who sought help from one of the three specialized units within social welfare in Sweden. A pretest–posttest group design was used to assess changes after treatment. Quantitative data were collected through interviews and self-report forms. Results: At posttreatment stage (on average a 10-month follow-up), mental health was significantly improved and hypersexual behavior reportedly reduced. The treatment at the specialized units appeared to help the clients. Conclusions: The specialized units seemed to deliver favorable service without shaming and stigmatizing participants. As this study can be considered a pilot study, it needs to be replicated.

AbstractArt programmes have been shown to contribute to the quality of life of people with dementia. To understand how people with dementia benefit from art programmes it is important to evaluate them. ‘Unforgettable’ is an interactive museum programme for people with dementia and their care-givers in the Netherlands. This study examined how it is experienced and appreciated by its users. It also investigated whether the user experience and appreciation are linked to their specific background characteristics. In a single-group design, we used a ‘take-home’ survey to collect the participants’ background characteristics and their experience and appreciation of the programme. A before and after intervention measurement took place, using a smiley face scale, to measure the change in mood of participants. Participants evaluated the programme very positively. Social interaction proved a key factor in their appreciation. The mood of the persons with dementia (N = 95) and care-givers (N = 104) improved after participation in the ‘Unforgettable’ programme. The results of this evaluation may contribute to the quality of art programmes in museums.

In Indonesia, 23.9 percent of adolescent girls suffer from anemia. Adolescent girls with anemia have poor memory and are less thorough in scholastic exams, resulting in inferior learning achievements. They are also more susceptible to illness, putting them at risk when they become pregnant. The goal of this study was to see how providing tempeh nuggets affected adolescent girls' hemoglobin levels at SMP Negeri in Gorontalo City. This sort of study uses a pre-experimental design with a pretestposttest research design with a single group design and a sample of 43 persons drawn by chance. Provision of tempe nuggets was the independent variable, whereas hemoglobin levels in teenage girls was the dependent variable. The average value or difference in the average hemoglobin levels of adolescent girls after being fed tempeh nuggets was 0.40 gr/dl, standard deviation was 0.42, and sig (2-tailed) = 0.000< 0.05, according to the findings of statistical test analysis with Paired T-test. Conclusion At SMP Negeri Gorontalo City, giving tempeh nuggets has an effect on hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls.

The main purpose of science education is to enable students to connect concepts with daily life and establish relations between the concepts. Thus, many implementations related to constructivism have been carried out. The aim of the study is to explore how students’ conceptual perceptions related to “Force and Motion” subject changed with meaningful learning. Pre-test -post test single group design, one of the experimental research designs, were used in the research. In order to interpret the students’ results in meaningful learning process, Conceptual Perception Test related to Force and Motion subject (CPTFM) was developed and the test was composed of five open-ended questions. The content of the items in the test was developed in such a way to include “Action-Reaction Law”, “Gravity”, and “Pairs of Balanced Forces.” The points obtained from the evaluation instrument were evaluated according to the levels created by the researcher. 35 students in their third year of study in the Department of Science Teaching participated in the study. The results of the study revealed that meaningful learning activities made positive contributions to pre-service teachers’ conceptual perceptions related to force and motion concepts. Key words: conceptual learning, force and motion concepts, meaningful learning, science teaching.
