TRANSFORMATION OF ACEH TENGGARA COCOA FARMERS THROUGH GAP AND APPLICATION-BASED PRICE INFORMATION SYSTEM

Assauwab, Muhammad Husaini, Deden Sumoharjo, Anuar Ramut, Umaidi
Abstract: Cocoa is a strategic commodity in Southeast Aceh Regency, but farmer productivity and income remain low due to limited implementation of Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) and poor access to price information. This community&#8230; ity service activity aims to improve farmers' capacity through an integrated approach that combines improving cocoa cultivation knowledge, strengthening the implementation of GAP, and utilizing real-time cocoa price information applications. The activity was carried out in December 2025 through stages of socialization, technical training, field demonstrations, introduction to price applications, as well as mentoring and evaluation. The results of the activity showed an increase in farmers' knowledge levels from low to medium to high, especially in terms of price information. Initial improvements in GAP adoption were reflected in pruning, fertilization, garden sanitation, pest control, and harvesting and post-harvesting practices that were more in line with standards. Access to price information shifted from dependence on middlemen to the use of applications and market comparisons, which increased farmers' independence in determining the time of sale. The price range difference between farmers and market references confirms that limited information weakens farmers' bargaining position. Overall, the integrated approach has proven relevant in improving farming efficiency and strengthening the basis for increasing cocoa farmers' income, although the sustainability of the impact requires continued assistance and strengthening of farmer institutions.

Abstract: Pemeriksaan Protrombin Time (PT) merupakan salah satu parameter penting dalam menilai sistem pembekuan darah, sehingga ketepatan dan ketelitian hasil pemeriksaan harus terjamin melalui pelaksanaan pengendalian mutu. Penelitian&#8230; litian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengendalian mutu internal pemeriksaan Prothrombin Time (PT) di Laboratorium RS Kasih Ibu Surakarta selama periode satu tahun berdasarkan data Quality Control (QC). Analisis dilakukan dengan menghitung nilai mean, standar deviasi (SD), dan koefisien variasi (CV), serta mengevaluasi kestabilan hasil menggunakan grafik Levey–Jennings. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan sebagian besar nilai koefisien variasi (CV) berada di bawah 5%, yang menandakan tingkat presisi yang baik. Grafik Levey–Jennings menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar data QC berada dalam batas kendali ±2 SD dan tersebar di sekitar nilai mean, sehingga proses analitik dapat dikatakan stabil. Namun, terdapat beberapa LOT dengan nilai CV di atas 5% yang mengindikasikan adanya variasi hasil yang lebih tinggi. Secara umum, tidak ditemukan penyimpangan yang signifikan berdasarkan pola grafik maupun evaluasi pengendalian mutu. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah pengendalian mutu internal pemeriksaan Prothrombin Time (PT) di Laboratorium RS Kasih Ibu Surakarta selama periode penelitian berada dalam kategori baik, dengan hasil pemeriksaan yang stabil, presisi, dan masih dalam batas kendali yang dapat diterima.

Balu, Fauzan, Olii, Rahmat, Paputungan, Frezy
Abstract: This research is a quasi-experimental study conducted to improve students' mathematical problem-solving abilities, one of which is through the use of the Self-Directed Learning (SDL) instructional model. The objectives of&#8230; f this study are to determine (a) the learning process using the Self-Directed Learning model; (b) the difference in improvement of students' mathematical problem-solving abilities between those using the Self-Directed Learning model and those receiving conventional (expository) instruction; and (c) students' attitudes toward mathematics learning using the Self-Directed Learning model. Data were collected using research instruments including tests in the form of mathematical problem-solving ability questions and non-tests such as student response questionnaires toward learning using the Self-Directed Learning model. This study was conducted at MAN 1 Gorontalo, with class X IPA-1 as the experimental class and class X IPA-2 as the control class, focusing on vector material. Based on the research results and n-gain data analysis, it was found that: (a) the description of the teacher and student learning process on quadrilateral vector material using the Self-Directed Learning model falls into the good category; (b) the improvement in mathematical problem-solving ability of students who received learning with the Self-Directed Learning model showed a moderate increase. Meanwhile, the improvement in mathematical problem-solving ability of students who received conventional learning showed a low increase. Therefore, there is a difference in the improvement of mathematical problem-solving ability between students using the Self-Directed Learning model and those using conventional learning; (c) most students who received learning using the Self-Directed Learning model responded positively to mathematics learning using this model.
