Logic gate learning is a fundamental topic in digital electronics; however, the learning process is often delivered theoretically with limited visualization of logic gate operations, making it difficult for students to understand the concepts. This study aims to design and develop an Augmented Reality (AR)-based learning media using a markerless approach with the 3D Object Tracking technique on Android devices. The application was developed using the Multimedia Development Life Cycle (MDLC) method, which consists of the stages of concept, design, material collection, development, testing, and distribution. The developed application provides three-dimensional visualization of logic gates, learning materials, interactive simulations, and quizzes. The application quality was evaluated based on the ISO/IEC 25010 standard, covering the aspects of Functional Suitability, Performance Efficiency, Usability, Compatibility, and Portability. The evaluation results showed that the application achieved a score of 100% in the Functional Suitability, Performance Efficiency, Compatibility, and Portability aspects. Meanwhile, the Usability evaluation obtained scores of 86,6% from respondents who had not previously studied logic gates and 89% from those who had, indicating that the application is categorized as highly feasible. Therefore, the developed markerless Augmented Reality-based learning media can serve as an interactive, engaging, and effective learning alternative for improving students' understanding of logic gate concepts.

This study aimed to determine the effect of different levels of beef liver addition on the nutritional, physicochemical, and color characteristics of chicken patties. Beef liver, an underutilized animal by-product with high nutritional value, was incorporated at different levels (0%, 20%, 40%, and 60%) into chicken patty formulations. The experiment was conducted using a Completely Randomized Design with four treatments and five replications. The collected data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and followed by Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT). The results showed that the addition of beef liver had no significant effect (P>0.05) on protein content, water activity (aw), and b* values, but had a highly significant effect (P<0.01) on moisture content, fat content, cooking loss, texture, and color characteristics (L* and a*). Increasing beef liver levels improved the nutritional profile and modified the physical and visual characteristics of the patties. These findings demonstrate the potential of beef liver as a value-added functional ingredient for developing nutritious chicken patties while promoting the sustainable utilization of underutilized livestock by-products.

Local wisdom, particularly traditional snacks, constitutes an essential part of national cultural identity that needs to be introduced from an early age. However, observations at SDN 1 Tanggungharjo revealed that students' understanding of traditional snacks remains low, compounded by a lack of contextual and engaging visual learning media. This study aims to design an illustrated book titled "Belajar Jajanan Tradisional" (Learning Traditional Snacks) as a local wisdom-based educational medium for grades 3–6 students at SDN 1 Tanggungharjo. The Design Thinking method was employed through five stages: Empathize, Define, Ideate, Prototype, and Test. Data were collected through direct observation, teacher interviews, and student questionnaires. The outcome is a 20-page digital illustrated book in A5 PDF format covering four traditional snacks — klepon, dadar gulung, apem, and kue lapis — with content encompassing their origins, philosophy, cultural values, ingredients, and preparation processes. The applied design elements include character personification, vector cartoon style, bright color palettes based on the snacks' natural colors, rounded sans-serif typography, and a charactercentered layout tailored to the cognitive characteristics of students aged 9–12 years. Trial results demonstrated that the illustrated book effectively enhanced students' understanding of and interest in traditional snacks, while receiving positive feedback from teachers as a contextual and meaningful supplementary medium for thematic learning.

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is a high-value horticultural commodity in Indonesia, yet its cultivation is frequently disrupted by leaf diseases that are difficult to distinguish visually. Diseases such as Bacterial Spot, Early Blight, and Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus often present overlapping visual symptoms, making early and accurate diagnosis a significant challenge for farmers. The manual identification methods currently in use are inefficient and error-prone, ultimately leading to reduced crop yield  and quality. The general objective of this study is to develop software capable of automatically classifying tomato  leaf diseases. Specifically, this research aims to implement the MobileNetV3 Small architecture based on Convolutional Neural  Network (CNN) with ImageNet pre-trained weights to classify 10 types of tomato leaf diseases. The research methodology encompasses dataset collection from Kaggle comprising 10,000 images (1,000 per class), image pre-processing through resizing to 224x224 pixels, and normalization, as well as hyperparameter optimization (optimizer, learning rate, epoch, batch size) via scheduler. Model performance is evaluated using a confusion matrix encompassing accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score.
