Museum is an institution that collects, receives, and studies collections of items that have knowledge and informational value as well as valuable assets. Generally, the items in a museum are solid objects that cannot interact directly with visitors. Therefore, each museum has a special staff, known as museum guides, to accompany visitors in exploring all museum collections. However, not all visitors want to be guided by museum guides, so there is a need for supporting media to help guides manage visitors who do not want to be guided. The media to be created is an interactive e-book. This interactive e-book can help visitors who want to explore the museum independently to obtain information from the museum collections. The e-book contains a menu of content consisting of information about museum collections, images of museum collections, text and audio information about museum collections, and animation illustrations of museum mascots. With a total of 33 pages containing information from 8 museum rooms. This design was made using the ADDIE method and evaluated using UEQ (User Experience Questionnaire) with a result of "Excellent".

This study uses primary data in the form of types of damage identified through direct surveys in the field and the thickness of the existing pavement layer carried out by asphalt test-pit testing. The secondary data obtained from the Makassar City Public Works Agency in the form of road pavement data, LHR 2021-2023, CBR, and deflection data in 2023. The results of the analysis show that the condition of Jalan Hertasning - Jalan Yasin Limpo with the pavement on the section is classified as fair with the highest PCI value of 77 in the excellent rating and the lowest of 22 in the very poor rating. The analysis of the new pavement was carried out using the 2017 Bina Marga method, the thickness of the AC-WC layer is 4 cm, AC-BC is 6 cm thick, AC-Base is 8 cm thick, Class A Foundation Layer is 30 cm thick, and Class S additional Foundation Layer is 20 cm thick. Through the mechanistic-empirical method of the KENPAVE program, it shows that the additional pavement layer (overlay) of the Hertasning Street to Yasin Limpo Street section for fatigue cracking damage is 0.0001992 with a load repetition value of 1,441,176 ESAL. The remaining value of the 20-year design life, obtained the thickness of the AC-WC pavement layer of 4 cm, the AC-BC layer of 6 cm, the AC-Base layer of 8 cm, and for the Class A upper foundation layer of 30 cm and an additional layer with Class S aggregate of 20 cm thick which is placed under the Class A Foundation Layer. Meanwhile, based on the KENPAVE program, it shows that during the 20-year design life, the pavement can withstand the load without damage because the load repetition control value is greater than the planned LHR value (Nr). The remaining design life value on Jalan Hertasning to Jalan Yasin Limpo using the Bina Marga 2017 method shows that the planned thickness of the new pavement layer is given an additional layer because the soil bearing capacity is less than 6% so that it is necessary to provide embankment material as a form of soil improvement for the minimum road foundation design in Bina Marga 2017.

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the contextual learning model "Gratitude in Action" in enhancing the gratitude attitude of fifth-grade students at SD Islam Excellent Plus Bukittinggi. The research was motivated by observations indicating that students' gratitude practices were limited to formal rituals without deeper internalization. A quasi-experimental method with a single-group pretest-posttest design was employed, involving 32 students. Quantitative data were collected through pre- and post-intervention surveys, while qualitative data were derived from teacher observations, student journals, and interviews. The results showed a statistically significant increase in students' gratitude scores (from 2.4 to 3.5 on a 4-point scale, p < 0.05). Behavioral observations revealed improved spontaneous expressions of gratitude, increased peer collaboration, and proactive acts of kindness. The model’s four stages—contextualization, experience, reflection, and transfer—proved effective in linking gratitude concepts to real-life actions. The study concludes that contextual learning grounded in Islamic values strengthens gratitude attitudes holistically. Recommendations include expanding teacher training, integrating family involvement, and replicating the model in other Islamic elementary schools with adjustments for local contexts.

This study examines the synthesis and characterization of new compounds produced from chalcone, confirming their favorable yield and excellent purity utilizing Using FT-IR and 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The compounds showed efficacy comparable to that of conventional antibiotics, demonstrating substantial bactericidal activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Interestingly, molecule S10 had stronger antibacterial activity, possibly as a result of its efficient electronic pairings. Furthermore, the compounds demonstrated resilience for up to 45 seconds when tested for stability under helium-neon laser irradiation. Longer exposure (60 seconds), however, caused discernible color and melting point alterations, suggesting thermal or photochemical deterioration. These results point to the possibility of additional pharmacological uses for molecules produced from chalcone.

Background: In Indonesia, coughs and colds increase from 10% to 35.5%. Due to this situation, many mothers are still not fully aware of the proper handling of coughs and colds, which is further exacerbated by the issue of syrup medications containing ethylene glycol that exceed the safe dosage limits, potentially leading to kidney failure in infants. There are two types of cold treatments: pharmacological with oral medications such as powders and syrups, and non-pharmacological with common cold massage. Research objective: This quantitative research determined the effect of educational videos on common cold massage for infants on mothers' cognition and motivation in performing self-massage at the Mranggen I Public Health Care with a pre-experimental method and a one-group pre-test-post-test design. The population in this study consisted of mothers with children aged 4–12 months at the Mranggen I Public Health Care taken with a simple random sampling technique, resulting in 54 mothers. The applied instruments in this research were the Common Cold Cognition questionnaire and maternal motivation. The researchers analyzed the data using univariate and bivariate analysis, employing the Wilcoxon test to identify the non-normally distributed effect of video education on knowledge, and the paired t-test to evaluate its normal distribution effect on motivation. Research Results: Video education has an influence on mothers' cognition and motivation to perform self-massage at Mranggen I Public Health Center, with a p-value of 0.000 < 0.05. Conclusions and suggestions: Respondents, mothers with children aged 4–12 months at the Mranggen I public health care, had excellent knowledge (46.3%) and strong motivation (46.3%). The researcher expects that mothers in the Mranggen I public health care area will seek more information about common cold massages.
