The spread of COVID-19 has an impact on changing the learning process at the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education (FKIP) Nusa Nipa University (UNIPA). UNIPA chose to implement online learning using Microsoft Teams. This study aims to determine the FKIP students’ perceptions on the use of Microsoft Teams application in online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. The sample of this research was 176 FKIP students’ which were spread in 5 study programs. They are Physics Education, Chemistry Education, Biology Education, and Elementary School Teacher Education. This research is qualitative research with data collection techniques were questionnaire and analyzed using Likert scale. The results showed that FKIP UNIPA students had a good perception of using Microsoft Teams. Students hope that this application will continue to be used during online learning with some improvements so that learning using this application can take place more effectively and efficiently.

Nowadays, the demand on fossil energy is increasing in number whereas its availability is decrease. People are still reckoned on it, despite of its rareness. Fossil energy utilized must be banned due to its negative effect. It is time for us to use renewable and eco-friendly energy (biofuel). Biogas is one of biofuel produced from anaerobic decomposition of organic matter by microorganisms. Organic waste as a by-product of our daily activities can be used as raw material to produce biogas. To use waste, means to decrease the environmental pollution problem. This research is aim to study the type of organic waste as a raw material to produce biogas through anaerobic digestion and its retention time. Organic wastes that were used in this research are domestic waste (food waste), agriculture waste (corn leaves) and industrial waste (solid and liquid waste of tofu). All of these wastes were mixed with cow dung as the starter/inoculum. As a control, the starter was used without organic waste addition. The testable retention times were 1st week until 9th week. The experimental design was Factorial Complete Randomized Design with confidence level 95%. The result showed that all the type of organic waste can be used to produce biogas through anaerobic digestion. Statistically, the average volume of biogas produced from industrial waste per week, 5794,3 ml was significantly different from any other organic waste (P=0,000). The best retention time was found on 8th week with the average volume of biogas was 3675,6 ml (P=0,006). There was no interaction between these two factors (P=0,1). This research is expected to open the people’s awareness about the management of useable organic waste as a raw material to produce biogas.

Inflamasi merupakan mekanisme pertahanan tubuh terhadap terhadap rangsangan berbahaya, seperti patogen, sel-sel yang rusak, senyawa beracun, atau iradiasi. Selama inflamasi dalam tubuh terdapat COX-2 mediator inflamasi yang peran meningkatkan inflamasi.  Sistem imun anti-inflamasi yang mengalami mutasi menyebabkan inflmasi meningkat. Oleh karena itu untuk menurnkannya menggunakan bioaktif alam. Asam kuinat memiliki toksisitas yang sangat rendah dan tidak memberikan efek negatif terhadap organ tubuh manusia. Asam kuinat memiliki potensi yang besar sebagai kandidat obat tertinggi dalam terapi. Akan tetapi kurangnya kajiannya. Penelitian ini bertujuan unutk memprediksi potensi serta menganalisis asam kuinat sebagai agen inflamasi dengan cara menghambat COX-2. Metode yang digunakan terdiri atas pengunduhan protein COX-2 dari protein data bank (PDB) dan asam kuinat diperoleh dari database PubChem, persiapan protein (COX-2) dan ligan (asam Kuinat) dengan program PyRx, analisis interaksi protein dan ligan menggunakan program Hex 8.0.0 dan Discovery Studio client 4.  Interaksi antara protein dan ligan menunjukan hasil positif dengan ditemukan 2 domain protein yang berikatan dengan asam kuinat. Protein domain A (GLU140, ASN144, SER143, dan TRP139) dan protein domain B (GLU236, THR237, LYS333, GLN241, GLN330, PHE329, dan LEU238). Ikatan yang terbentuk ada ikatan hidrogen dengan energi sebesar -198.95cal/mol. Asam kuinat diprediksi memiliki potensi sebagai terapi anti-inflamasi, hal ini ditunjukan karena ada ikatan yang terbentuk antara ligan dan 11 residu asam amino.

Hypertension is an abnormal increase in blood pressure. Regulating blood and cardiovascular function have correlated with the ACE pathway. To decrease blood pressure can use the ACE inhibitor. This paper aims to predict potential of Caffeic Acid as anti-hypertension by blocking the ACE pathway. The method in this research used in silico study. The protein was obtained from Protein Data Bank (PDB) and the ligand was obtained from PubChem. Molecular docking was performed by using HEX and visualization analysis was analyzed by using Discovery Studio. The interaction of caffeic acid and ACE has a functional as anti-hypertension roles. The evidence by twelve amino acid, which bind with the caffeic acid (ASP377, ASN277, ASN285, GLU376, ALA170, ASN167, ASN374, THR372, THR166, CYS370, GLU162 and PRO163). The chemistry bond was formed are hydrogen bond, van der Waals and electrostatics in amino residue ASP377. This binding could stop the synthesis of AT-I to AT-II which pathway to hypertension. Caffeic acid has a potential role as anti-hypertension by inhibiting ACE.

Objective: This study examined the effectiveness of the Argument-Driven Inquiry learning model in science learning in improving students' argumentation skills and conceptual understanding. Method: The techniques used are 1) searching articles on Scopus and Google Scholar using the keyword Argument-Driven Inquiry in science learning, 2) articles were selected focus on increasing conceptual understanding and argumentation skills, 3) the metadata was selected limited to 2015-2023, and 4) conducting the in-depth review. Results: The ADI model was able to improve students' argumentation skills. In general, students' argumentation levels are in levels 3-4. The quality of the arguments developed by students shows the understanding of the concepts possessed by students. Students can reach the cognitive level created (C6) by writing scientific reports. Novelty: This study reinforces previous research regarding the effectiveness of the ADI model in improving argumentation skills and conceptual understanding taken from recent articles. Therefore, this article can be the basis for developing learning tools for the ADI model.
