To enhance the competencies of midwifery students, one must design the learning instruction in such a manner that it will optimize learning. The learning materials designed based on technology will facilitate the learners to achieve the desired outcome. In this study, e-partograph was developed using ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) instruction model. While the module of E-partograph was followed the structural guideline of Department of National Education of Indonesia consisted of: Self Instruction, Self-Contained, Stand Alone, Adaptive, and User friendly. The evaluation showed that E-partograph was feasible (99.3) in the material subject, very feasible (195) in terms of media, feasible (101.6) in the try –out, and feasible for the students (user) (104.18). It is suggested that e-partograph could be applied in the teaching learning system, and it is expected to contribute positively to the increase in skill and competence of midwifery students who will be able to carry out its role both academic and practice.
BACKGROUND: Exclusive breastfeeding can be beneficial for both the baby and the mother. Efforts are needed to increase milk production so that mothers can still only breastfeed their babies. Moringa leaves can increase breast milk production because they contain flavonoids and polyphenols. Moringa leaf cookies were chosen because they are liked by many nursing mothers, can be stored for a relatively long time, and processing can lose nutrients. AIM: The purpose of the study was to analyze the effectiveness of Moringa leaf cookies in increasing breast milk production. METHODS: This was a quasi-experiment with pre-test and post-test non-equivalent control group design. The number of samples was 46 respondents on the 1st day of primiparous postpartum mothers who were divided into two into 23 intervention groups given Moringa leaf cookies (125 g/day) for 14 days and Vitamin A and Fe tablets and 23 control groups were given Vitamin A and Fe tablets. In this study, milk production was measured through indicators of infant weight with the right level of accuracy. The analysis used in this study is the paired t-test, independent t-test, and multivariate Test. RESULTS: There was a difference before and before being given Moringa leaf cookies in the intervention group, while the statistical test results obtained p = 0.000 < 0.05. There was a difference in body weight in the intervention group and the control group and the results of the statistical test p = 0.000 < 0.05. CONCLUSION: Moringa leaf cookies (125 g/day) for 14 days were effective in increasing breast milk production based on the baby’s weight.
Background: Patients with acute myocardial infarction have a change in sleep pattern. Acupressure is identified as a therapy with the principle of healing to deal with sleep changes.Objective: To analyze the effect of acupressure on sleep quality and pulse rate in patients with acute myocardial infarction.Methods: This study employed a quasi-experiment study with non randomized pretest-posttest with control group design. There were 50 respondents selected in this study, with 25 assigned in the intervention and control group using consecutive sampling. Quality Sleep Questionnaire and bedside monitor were used to measure sleep quality and pulse rate. Accupressure in combination of Neiguan point (PC 6), Shenmen (HT7), Sanyinjiao (SP6), Yintang (EX3) and Tay (EX5) was given as the nursing intervention in this study. Data were analyzed using paired t-test and independent t-test.Results: There was statistically a significant increase of quality of sleep and significant decrease of pulse rate in the intervention group with p-value 0.000 (<0.05).Conclusion: Accupressure has a significant effect on the increase of sleep quality and the decrease of pulse rate in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Thus, it is suggested that accupressure could be one of the nursing intervention for AMI patients to increase sleep quality and decrease of pulse rate.
The ethnoscience approach is carried out by integrating local wisdom culture in science learning. The Minang community believes that the Taxus sumatrana plant is a cancer drug. But they have not been able to explain its benefits conceptually based on scientific inquiry with relevant references. This study aims to solve these problems through (1) designing ethnoscience-based inquiry learning to study the bioactivity of Taxus sumatrana; and (2) describe scientific experiments on plants as cancer drugs. This research includes qualitative research to reconstruct scientific explanations based on local wisdom. The data were obtained through observations at the research location regarding community local wisdom and laboratory activities including isolation, phytochemical identification, and chemical structure testing using Perkin Elmer 100 FT-IR spectroscopy. All data obtained were analyzed and corroborated by various relevant sources. The results of the analysis concluded that the appropriate learning design was an integrated model; and secondary metabolites found in the bark and leaves of Taxus sumatrana were tested using water, ethanol, ethanol + n-hexane, and ethanol + benzene as solvents, including terpenoids, alkaloids, terpenoids, steroids, phenolics, and saponins. The results showed that Taxus sumatrana can act as an anticancer because in the experimental laboratory it is known that terpenoids as taxols, phenolics, and other oxygenated metabolites which have the potential to be anticancer.
This research aims to develop chemistry project-based learning with an Integrated Ethnoscience Approach in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (Ethno-STEM) to improve students' conservative and entrepreneurial character. The research method refers to the Research and Development (R&D) model with the Four D by Thiagarajan (1997). The research samples are chemistry education students from Universitas Negeri Semarang. The model effectiveness test was conducted in secondary metabolite lectures at the Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Science, Universitas Negeri Semarang, Indonesia. Data collection techniques used expert validation sheets to assess the feasibility of the model and observation sheets and questionnaires to measure students' conservative and entrepreneurial character. Based on the results of research, it was concluded that a chemical project-based learning model for the secondary metabolites course on essential oils and terpenes and learning tools with an Ethno-STEM approach was feasible and effective for improving students' conservative and entrepreneurial character with moderate and high criteria based on the N-gain score. The chemical batik motif on canvas based on the secondary metabolites' chemical structure is attractive and creative.
