Changes and improvements to the curriculum are absolutely done by looking at the Changes and improvements to the curriculum are carried out by looking at the various needs and developments of the times. The urgency of improving this curriculum has also made the Ministry of Religion perfect the PAI curriculum as stated in KMA 183 and implementation guidelines at KMA 184 in 2019. However, it has not been fully implemented in the field like at MA Sabilal Muhtadin. The approach used in this research is qualitative with case study type. The research location is in MA Sabilal Muhtadin. Data collection techniques using interviews, observation, and documentation. While the data analysis technique using analysis according to Miles, Huberman, includes data collection, condensation, presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results showed that the main problems faced in HOTS-based moderation and evaluation learning at MA Sabilal Muhtadin were incompetent teacher resources, low levels of professionalism, and the absence of special attention from the ministry of religion regarding coaching and others at MA Sabilal Muhtadin. The implication of this research is as a material for criticism and input for madrasas and the ministry of religion to pay more attention to the preparation of the PAI curriculum implementation in madrasah.

This research to exploit the waste sawdust of wood lua (Ficus glomerata ROXB) for the making particle board with the variation size measure particle that is 60 mesh, 80 mesh and mixture (60 mesh+80 mesh). Wood lua represent the wood less be recognized and to lower specific gravity. Agglutinant use the glue of Urea Formaldehyda (UF) with the glue concentration 20% from dry weight particle substance. The result of research show the average value board particle wood lua made for moisture content to range from 9,25-9,41%; wood density as 0,60-0,63 gr/cm3; thickness swelling as  9,13-9,53 %; modulus of rupture (MoR) 97,63-101,59 kgf/cm2; modulus of elasticity (MoE) 1,12-1,32.104 kgf/cm2; tensile strength as 2,96-3,99 kgf/ cm2. As a whole result examination  nature of fisis and mechanical particle board wood lua the standard quality of SNI 03-2105-2006 except for the examination modulus of elasticity (MoE).Key wood : lua, fisis, mechanical, particle.

Potensi limbah dari industri pengrajin rotan menghasilkan limbah serutan rotan yang cukup besar tiap tahunnya. Oleh sebab itu diperlukan pengembangan guna memanfaatkan limbah rotan tersebut secara maksimal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memanfaatkan limbah serutan rotan sebagai bahan pengisi alternatif papan gypsum dan menganalisa kekuatan fisik dan mekanik papan gypsum yang dihasilkan. Bahan yang digunakan terdiri dari tepung gypsum, serutan rotan, serat fiber dan boraks. Pada penelitian ini papan gypsum yang berbahan pengisi serutan rotan, serat fiber dan atau campuran antara serutan rotan dengan serat fiber menggunakan konsentrasi bahan                 0,5 %; 1,0 %; 1,5 %; 2,0 % dan 2,5 % serta diameter serutan rotan 2 mm; 3 mm; 4 mm. Hasil pengujian sifat fisis dan mekanis diukur berdasarkan standar mutu SNI 03-6434-2000. Berdasarkan pengujian papan gypsum menggunakan serutan rotan menghasilkan rerata kadar air berkisar antara 4,04-6,58 %, kerapatan 0,29-0,45 g/cm3, daya serap air 17,39-24,81 %, pengembangan tebal antara  0,077-0,654 % dan keteguhan patah (MoR) berkisar antara 15,51-65,29 kg/cm2. Dari hasil pengujian sifat fisis secara keseluruhan memenuhi standar mutu dan sifat mekanik belum memenuhi standar mutu papan gypsum SNI 03-6434-2000.

The purpose of this research is to know the mechanical strength of gypsum board by utilizing waste sawn wood. Raw materials used consist of flour, gypsum,wood particles, boraks and kambang (Goniothalamus sp), wood tarap (Artocarpus elasticus REINW) and lua (Ficus glomerata ROXB). Wood particle 40 mesh and 60 mesh, concentrations boraks of 1 and 2 and the percentage particles of gypsum sawn timber is 300, 400 and 500%. The results showed that the average value Modulus of Rufture (MoR) in lua wood ranges from 12.55 – 14,47 kgcm2, wood kambang 25.10-31,11 kgcm2 and wood tarap 19.20- 24,18 kgcm2. As for Modulus of Elasticity (MoE) on the lua 1129,80- 2092,70 kgcm2, wood kambang 2512,37-3971,32 kgcm2 and tarap 2050,63-2691,09 kgcm2. Gypsum board are mechanical properties do not meet quality standards created SNI 03-6434-2000.Keywords: sawdust, lua, kambang, tarap, gypsum, mechanical

Bambu dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai energi alternatif menjadi arang karbon dengan cara pengarangan. Penelitian ini menggunakan sistem pengarangan tipe retort tetapi menggunakan tungku drum ganda sebagai tempat pemanas dan pembakarannya. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengukur optimasi proses kinerja alat pengarangan dan mengetahui kualitas arang bambu sebagai bahan bakar yang dihasilkan dengan sistem pengarangan retort tungku drum. Jenis bambu yang digunakan pada penelitian ini yaitu bambu betung (Dendrocalamus asper) dan bambu ater (Gigantochloa atter). Hasil pengukuran kinerja alat kemudian dianalisis secara deskriptif dengan membandingkan berdasarkan literatur dan hasil penelitian sebelumnya sedangkan kualitas arang dibandingkan dengan standar arang sebagai bahan bakar yaitu
