This study assesses the performance of various adaptation strategies used by farmers to improve agricultural production amid changing climate. Data were collected through household survey, key informant interviews, focus group discussions, field observations, and review of relevant documents. Quantitative data were analysed using SPSS and Microsoft Excel, while qualitative data were analysed using content analysis. Results showed that, from 1990 to 2020, both mean annual minimum and maximum temperatures have increased at nonsignificant rates of R2 = 0.7569 and R2 = 0.2279, respectively; while rainfall has decreased at a significant rate of R2 = 0.0121. Such changes in climate parameters affect agricultural production through damaging crops and persistent low yields. Responding to these changes, farmers have adopted several adaptation strategies, including planting drought-tolerant crops (99.4%), changing planting dates (93.6%), planting early-maturing crops and high-yielding varieties (92.9%), mixed-crop farming (63.8%), application of manure (27.9%), and irrigation (8.3%). Planting drought-tolerant crops, changing planting dates, and the application of manure were found to be effective, and contributed to the increase of millet and groundnuts yields. Planting early-maturing crops and high-yielding varieties, and mixed-crop farming were found to be ineffective; and contributed to the decrease of maize, sunflower, and sorghum yields. In general, despite using several adaptation strategies, the majority of farmers had not improved agricultural production. This study urges that improving agricultural extension services; and providing credits and timely, relevant, and user-friendly weather information to farmers, can enhance effective adaptation to climate change.

“…In addition to the mean pre-test and post-test as shown in Table 2, a hypothesis test was also performed to see the change of the mean score by using the paired sample t-test. This method is used to compare the difference in the mean of two paired cases in a group of people [32]. The case of paired data that is often appeared is that one individual has 2 types of sample data [33].…”

Reading activity has tremendous impacts and benefits in sharpening and increasing one's intelligence. Each individual is entitled to the opportunity to be able to read, both those who are normal and those who have disabilities, such as the one with hearing impairment or deaf. Hearing impediment often causes a setback or even loss of speech because the sufferer has a deficiency or loss of hearing ability either partial or total. The problem encountered by the deaf person breeds the idea of developing learning applications for people with disabilities especially children. This research aims to make it easier for children to understand and foster vocabulary acquisition as well as to develop children's motivation in the learning process as this learning media is designed with an attractive and interactive interface. Edugame application which emphasized an android-based visual form was established as a support to the development of children's speech and reading skills. The development method used in designing this application is the prototyping model which consists of the needs analysis, prototype design, prototype evaluation, program writing/coding, program testing, program evaluation, and implementation. Edugame as vocabulary learning media for deaf children promotes an interesting and interactive learning process to improve children's understanding of words in learning vocabulary. The results of the black box testing, pre-test and post-test, paired sample t-test, SUS, and Aiken V revealed that all the results were valid, so it could be concluded that there were significant differences (real) before and after the use of the application in the learning process.

“…The mean difference in economic value is -.18.324, meaning that the post-value is greater than the pre-value. It shows that the change in economic value is positive or getting more significant (Khosravi et al 2018). The difference value is also categorized as significant, seen from the value of sig Pre_Ekonomi -Post_Ekonomi (sig.…”

Creating Shared Value (CSV) is the company's operational policy by increasing the company's competitive value and simultaneously advancing social and economic conditions for both the company and target recipients of the program. This program aims to shift the use of subsidized LPG to non-subsidized LPG and help MSEs develop their businesses. This study examines the effectiveness of the Pinky Movement Program regarding social and economic values for both companies and program participants. This study uses a survey method by collecting primary and secondary data. Primary data was obtained through questionnaires distributed to 392 program participants who were selected using purposive sampling. In total, 269 respondents completed the questionnaire. Secondary data was obtained from Pertamina, including sales, profits, brand reputation, the number of employees who contributed to the program and its implementation of the training program. Data analysis was performed using a paired sample t-test to compare the conditions before and when the The Pinky Movement Program was implemented. The study results show that the Pinky Movement program effectively created social and economic value from the perspective of program participants. However, from the Company's perspective, this program has not proven effective because there have been no positive changes in economic and social values before and during the program's implementation. The managerial implications that companies can carry out are continuing to run the Pinky Movement program as a social investment capable of providing positive results for the company, target recipients, and affected stakeholders, respectively.
