Abstrak: Memperoleh pendidikan merupakan salah satu hak anak. Pada masa pandemi Covid-19, proses pembelajaran di sekolah dilakukan secara daring (online). Dalam proses ini, terjadi beberapa kasus kekerasan terhadap anak. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana pemenuhan hak-hak pendidikan anak dan bagaimana perlindungan anak dari tindak kekerasan pada masa pandemi Covid-19 dalam perspektif Undang-Undang Nomor 23 Tahun 2002 tentang Perlindungan Anak, khususnya pasal 50 dan 54. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode deskriptif dengan pendekatan kuantitatif. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan cara penyebaran angket melalui google form, yang disebarkan via whatsapp. Subjek yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah orang tua siswa Sekolah Dasar/Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Kota dan Kabupaten Tasikmalaya dengan mengambil 227 responden. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemenuhan hak-hak anak dalam bidang pendidikan pada masa pandemi Covid-19, pada jenjang pendidikan SD/MI di Kota dan Kabupaten Tasikmalaya, sangat baik dengan perolehan nilai rata-rata yang termasuk kategori sangat tinggi. Namun, perlindungan anak dari tindakan kekerasan, baik fisik maupun psikis, belum sepenuhnya terpenuhi. Meskipun dengan jumlah kasus yang tidak terkategori tinggi, tindakan kekerasan terhadap anak dalam bentuk apapun, merupakan sesuatu yang tidak dibenarkan dan harus dicegah. Abstract: Obtaining education is one of the rights of children. During the Covid-19 pandemic, the learning process in schools was carried out online. In this process, several cases of violence against children occurred. Therefore, this study aims to find out how to fulfill children's education rights and how to protect children from violence during the Covid-19 pandemic in the perspective of Law Number 23 of 2002 concerning Child Protection, particularly articles 50 and 54. The method used is used in this research is a descriptive method with a quantitative approach. Data collection was carried out by distributing questionnaires via a google form, which was distributed via WhatsApp. The subjects used in this study were the parents of students of the Elementary School / Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Kota and Tasikmalaya Regency by taking 227 respondents. The results showed that the fulfillment of children's rights in the education sector during the Covid-19 pandemic, at the SD / MI education level in the City and District of Tasikmalaya, was very good with the acquisition of an average score which was in the very high category. However, child protection from acts of violence, both physical and psychological, has not been fully fulfilled. Even with the number of cases that are not categorized as high, acts of violence against children in any form are something that is not justified and must be prevented.

The Last Glacial

O litoral de Vila Nova de Gaia, a sul da cidade do Porto, constitui um trecho geoarqueológico ímpar para o estudo da ocupação quaternária da fachada ocidental da Ibéria. Neste trabalho apresentam-se algumas características tecno-tipológicas das indústrias líticas do litoral de Vila Nova de Gaia e avançam-se hipóteses sobre os respetivos contextos cronoestratigráficos, litoestratigrágicos e geoarqueológicos. De acordo com observações mais ou menos pontuais realizadas durante as últimas três décadas sugere-se que:a) A indústria lítica mais antiga parece associar-se ao nível marinho I (20-30 m a.n.m.a.m.), podendo ter sido posteriormente remobilizada na sequência de processos coluvionares. A presença de bifaces e de machados de mão entre os artefactos identificados remete-a para o Acheulense;b) A ocorrência de bifaces muito boleados em depósitos coluvionares que recobrem o nível marinho II (10-20 m a.n.m.a.m.), sugere que o seu contexto primário terá sido o referido depósito marinho;c) na base do depósito do nível marinho III da Praia da Aguda ocorrem artefactos líticos enquadráveis no Acheulense (presença de bifaces e de machados de mão);d) nas coluviões sobre os níveis marinhos I e II existem artefactos muito eolizados – aparentemente posteriores às formações marinhas e anteriores à génese das coluviões – e artefactos sem qualquer alteração física – possivelmente coevos dos processos de coluvionamento. Aspetos técnicos e tipológicos observados nestes dois conjuntos artefactuais permitem avançar a hipótese de se relacionarem, respetivamente, com o último período glaciar (idade mínima) e com o Holocénico. The carved lithic artefacts from the littoral of Vila Nova de Gaia: generic characterization, geoarchaeological contextualization, problems and perspectives - The coast of Vila Nova de Gaia, south of the city of Porto, constitutes a unique geoarchaeological stretch for the study of the quaternary occupation of the western facade of Iberia. This work presents some techno-typological characteristics of the lithic industries from Vila Nova de Gaia coastline and hypotheses concerning their chronostratigraphic context are presented. According to general observations carried out during the last three decades it is suggested that:a) The earliest lithic industry seems to be associated with marine level I (20-30 a.s.l.); however, it may have been subsequently remobilized by colluvial processes. The presence of handaxes and cleavers among the artefacts connect this assemblage with the Acheulean;b) The presence of rolled handaxes in colluvial deposits overlying marine level II (10-20 m a.s.l.) suggests that their primary context may have been the mentioned marine level;c) At the bottom of the marine level III deposit from Praia da Aguda (< 10 m a.s.l) there are lithics of Acheulean age (presence of handaxes and cleavers);d) In the colluvial deposits overlying marine levels I and II there are lithic artefacts with a very high degree of aeolisation – apparently younger than the marine formations and older than the colluvial processes – and artefacts with no patina – possibly synchronous of the colluvia. Technical and typological features observed in these two sets suggest that the first one may date from the last glacial period (minimum age) and the second one from the Holocene.

The visualization of organic macromolecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, viruses and virus components has reached its high degree of effectiveness owing to refinements and reliability of instruments and to the invention of methods for enhancing the structure of these materials within the electron image. The latter techniques have been most important because what can be seen depends upon the molecular and atomic character of the object as modified which is rarely evident in the pristine material. Structure may thus be displayed by the arts of positive and negative staining, shadow casting, replication and other techniques. Enhancement of contrast, which delineates bounds of isolated macromolecules has been effected progressively over the years as illustrated in Figs. 1, 2, 3 and 4 by these methods. We now look to the future wondering what other visions are waiting to be seen. The instrument designers will need to exact from the arts of fabrication the performance that theory has prescribed as well as methods for phase and interference contrast with explorations of the potentialities of very high and very low voltages. Chemistry must play an increasingly important part in future progress by providing specific stain molecules of high visibility, substrates of vanishing “noise” level and means for preservation of molecular structures that usually exist in a solvated condition.
