Teaching counting lessons to kindergarten students is often considered taboo. Some people assume that should not teach counting lessons to children who have not even reached the age of seven years. A long debate arose due to an elementary school admission test that contained numerical questions. Is it true that kindergarten students are not allowed to learn numeracy lesson? The purpose of this study is to introduce a montessori approach, a feasible approach used to teach the concept of counting in kindergarten students. This research is a qualitative descriptive research conducted on TK A Putera Zaman students. The research begins with the conduct of obeservasi and interview, then proceed with applying montessori approach in learning done with teacher in class. The results of the research with the stand on the opinion of Maria Montessori that the early age to the age of six years is the phase Absorbent Minds, the child\u27s brain will continue to change, grow rapidly, and open to new stimuli, so kindergarten A students have learned to count. Some steps to embed the concept of counting to the students of Kindergarten A Putera Zaman can be done with the following delivery steps: (1) Introduction to quantity 1 - 10, (2) What is zero, (3) Matching numbers with quantity 0 - 10, (4) Relation of 1 – 10, (5) Basic sum operation, and (8) Basic reduction operation.

Data Collection Techniques are interview; observation; and documentation. Research Instruments in this study are a notebook to write about the interview; checklist paper; and field note. Analyzing technique in this study are organizing, coding and reducing, interpreting and representing. The result of this study are Deaf children's communication with deaf children is more dominant using nonverbal rather than verbal. Use of continuous verbal communication such as Kinect (facial expression, eye contact, sign language), haptics, paralanguage, and proxemict. Deaf children communicate with other disability (down syndrome) is Deaf children's communication with dominant down syndrome children using nonverbal communication types. The use of intense verbal communication such as kinestict (facial expressions, eye contact, sign language) and haptics are two very important aspects of their communication. Deaf children's communication with normal people uses a combination of verbal (oral and writing) and nonverbal (kinect, haptic, and proxemic). Teachers will use a clear combination of sign language and oral. While researchers use oral, written and sign language to make it easier for deaf students to understand the conversation

IMPROVING STUDEN'T VOCABULARY MASTERY THROUGH DESERIPTIVE TEXT,Chandra Cipta Nuresa 127010069.Dudih A Zuhud dan Senny S.Alwasilah

Text is the basic element studies activity in the class room, one of the type in text is “Descriptive Text”. Many kinds of vocabularies are teaching in the class room by the teacher. Most of the teacher uses text in her/his teaching is for rising student’s spirit in learning vocabulary. The student’s also feel fun and enjoy as they are in teaching learning process by using text. The atmosphere in the class will be more joyfull but still can be focused on the subject or material that the teacher is given. Based on the statement above, the writer conducts a research about Improving Student’s Vocabulary Mastery Trough Descriptive Text. In this research, the writer has two purposes, those are: How does teacher teach vocabulary using descriptive text, and to know the students’ improvement in increasing vocabulary. The writer has the limitation of the text it self, it focuses on investigating and disccussing only in using “directional map” in teaching learning process that teacher has applied in the class. In this research, the writer uses the qualitative approach. The qualitative approach is a method to solve an actual problem by collecting, clarifying, analyzing and interpreting the data. In the condition, the text is using in teaching learning process at SMP Negeri 40 Bandung. The significances of this research are: to analyze the improving students’ ability to memorize vocabulary by using vocabulary text and they will get an enjoyable situation, and to know the improving a good skills ability of teacher in teaching vocabulary through game activities

Source reconstruction of the 1969 Sulawesi, Indonesia earthquake and tsunami

This study is funded by the Royal Society (UK) grant number CHL/R1/180173.vEGU21: Gather Online Session NH5.1An M7.0 earthquake followed by moderate tsunami destructed Majene region, western Sulawesi on 23 February 1969. This event claimed at least 64 lives and caused severe damage to infrastructure. In this study, we reconstructed the earthquake and tsunami source of this event by optimising macroseismic and tsunami dataset reported as well as analysed the earthquake focal mechanism. We estimated that the maximum intensity of the earthquake was VIII (in Modified Mercalli Intensity). From the first motion polarity analysis, the earthquake had a thrust mechanism which was plausibly from the Makassar Thrust. Further, deterministic ground motion modelling successfully fits the intensity data. However, thrust earthquake from the Makassar Thrust was unable to reconstruct 4 m tsunami height observed at Pelattoang. The estimated ratio between maximum tsunami run-up height and lateral distribution distance (I2) from the dataset indicates that the tsunami was generated by a local coastal landslide.Royal Society (UK) grant number CHL/R1/180173

Culturally sensitive patient-centered healthcare: a focus on health behavior modification in low and middle-income nations—insights from Indonesia

Patient-centered, culturally sensitive healthcare acknowledges the profound impact of cultural beliefs on health behaviors and outcomes, particularly vital in low and middle-income countries (LMICs). Within Indonesia, distinct cultural factors are pivotal in empowering patients, necessitating their integration into healthcare practices. For example, the cultural concept of gotong royong, emphasizing communal collaboration, presents an opportunity to foster community support networks among patients. Moreover, honoring familial ties and involving family members in decision-making enhances patient empowerment. Acknowledging and incorporating spiritual and religious beliefs, which are deeply rooted in Indonesian culture, into healthcare interventions further augments patient empowerment and well-being. In LMICs, including Indonesia, achieving patient empowerment demands implementing critical strategies. Community-based interventions harness local resources and engage the community to drive health behavior change. Culturally sensitive communication bridges the gap between healthcare providers and patients, respecting language nuances and cultural norms. Patient education fosters a comprehensive understanding of health conditions, thereby encouraging active involvement in decision-making. Tailored behavior modification techniques, aligned with cultural beliefs and practices, support the adoption of healthier behaviors among patients. This review emphasizes the pivotal role of patient-centered, culturally sensitive healthcare in LMICs, particularly in Indonesia. It delves into strategies to promote health behavior change within these unique contexts, emphasizing the importance of cultural sensitivity and patient-centered care. The discourse also explores the cultural landscape impacting healthcare, acknowledging the challenges faced in delivering comprehensive healthcare services within these diverse cultural contexts. Additionally, it outlines innovative approaches and success stories in implementing patient-centered care, highlighting how cultural factors intersect with healthcare outcomes. By advocating for integrating culture-specific patient empowerment practices into healthcare methodologies, this article underscores the potential for improved health outcomes, heightened patient engagement, and the delivery of culturally relevant services within LMICs
