Many research findings have stated that the use of technology in EFL classroom results invaluable achievements and develops positive attitudes. Technology may integrate sounds, pictures, motions, and colors that figure out a natural picture of real life. The aim of the study was to enhance the students’ attitude toward learning English by using technology of internet that used as the data-finding resources while computer software used as an instrument to do the assigned project. The instruction was performed in a project simulating business meeting, done in a group of seven members. The study was an action research using a total of 52 students from Accounting Department of State Polytechnic of Malang in the year of 2015/2016. The study took 12 meetings, with 90 minutes for each meeting. The data were collected through interviews, questionnaire, and direct observation, pre-test and post-test. Result of the study showed that by using technology, the students’ positive attitude toward learning English was promoted.
This study aims to obtain the amount of RPO, ?-carotene content, increase of vitamin A availability after red palm oil was added to the seasoning. This research uses Completely Randomized Design (RAL) with one factorial that is RPO concentration (0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%). The results showed that the content of ?-carotene in RPO was 348,23 ppm or equivalent to 28,44 ?g RE per gram, mie ayam seasoning with RPO 100% addition was the most favored and accepted chicken noodle condiment by consumer as a whole, by consuming 100% RPO can meet provitamin A requirements of 117.78 ?g RE (adult female) and RPO (Red Palm Oil), Chicken Noodle Seasoning.

Background: Aged skin is characterized by wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and roughness. Collagen is the most abundant protein in our body and it’s responsible for skin health and it’s mostly influenced by factors that accelerated aging such as UV. Objective: This study aimed to identify the potential use of collagen as skin supplementation and the challenges and strategies for its delivery. Methods: The articles were first searched through the existing database with the keyword of “collagen antiaging”. The 585 articles were then screened by year of publication (2012-2022) resulted in 475 articles. The articles were then selected based on the delivery of collagen either orally or topically, resulted in 12 articles for further analysis. Results: Collagen has important roles in skin physiology by involving some mechanisms through inhibition of Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase, induction of Tissue Growth Factor β (TGF-β), and inhibition of Nuclear Factor kappa beta (NF-κβ). The oral administration of collagen has an effective biological activity but requires large doses (up to 5 g daily). Meanwhile, the topical administration of collagen is limited by poor permeability due to high molecular weight (±300 kDa). Several strategies need to be carried out mainly by physical modification such as hydrolyzed collagen or entrapment of collagen using a suitable delivery system. Conclusions: Collagen could improve the skin properties, but further research should be conducted to increase its penetration either by physical modification or entrapment into suitable carrier.
Collaborative learning is a strategy of teaching and learning by grouping students to work together to solve a problem, complete an assignment, and produce a product. It increases learners’ motivation and promotes a harmonious atmosphere, decreasing classroom anxiety and facilitating interaction discussion and an individual sense of self-centeredness. At the same time, it enlarges students' knowledge and skills. One of the important skills is oral communication. Oral communication is an important skill to learn as it could express ideas and opinions. It uses to discuss knowledge and bridge the communication for ones who do not understand English. Therefore, this study aims to encourage students to do collaborative learning to strengthen their oral communication skills. The researcher used the action research method to see the improvement of the students’ communication skills. The subject was 32 students of the Accounting Department State Polytechnic of Malang. The study resulted that most students showed an improvement in all four language skills, but speaking skills had the greatest improvement.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
