Kreativitas Guru Pai Dalam Pengembangan Bahan Ajar Di Madrasah Aliyah Jeumala Amal Lueng Putu

: Creativity is a key of successful teaching that oriented to the effectiveness of learning process, the achievement of leaning goals, and the optimal education. This study aimed to observe the process of developing teaching materials done by the teachers in learning process in Jeumala Amal Islamic Senior High School of Lueng Putu, where the conceptual teaching materials was a supportive facility in optimizing the learning and education process to achieve the goals expected. To achieve the aim, this study used qualitative approach. Techniques of data collection used were interview, observation, and documentation study. Subjects of this study were principal, vice principal, and teachers. The results of the study described that (1) the teachers tended to have creativity to develop teaching materials in learning process of Islamic Education (PAI) in Jeumala Amal Islamic Senior High School of Lueng Putu. The creativity could be seen from the variation of teaching materials developed, which came from teachers' own creativity, school library, bookstore, related department's aid, or websites. The teaching materials used with their various intensity of use and quality included books, pictures, brochures, mock-up, cassette, and CD; and (2) the effort done by the teachers in developing teaching materials were trying to design and be creative to produce and use teaching materials needed based on the material and sub-material of PAI scope

Penggunaan Citra Landsat 8 untuk Pemetaan Persebaran Lamun di Pesisir Pulau Batam

Landsat 8 satellite provides information (image / picture / photo map) operating free which can be downloaded from the official website. Lyzenga analysis is used to correction of water column so that the appearance of the object in satellite sensors for the better. The study was conducted during the month of August 2016 using the method with Lyzenga, proofreading imagery, as well as classification. The purpose of this research is to know the distribution of sea grass in coastal areas of the island of Batam using Landsat 8, by looking at the physical parameters of the ocean in-situ temperature and dissolved oxygen (DO). These results indicate the relationship of the distribution of each station has the lowest value that is at Piayu sea, and the highest brightness values are in the area of Nongsa sea, dissolved oxygen (DO) is highest in the area Piayu sea and the highest temperature in the area Sekupang sea with a value of 80 mg/l and 36.50 C. His cause is not found in mono-specific sea grass life and the area, and there are no real ecological disturbances, such as the characteristics of the habitat, community structure, and the threat of sea grass distribution plan participate discussed

Association between proton pump inhibitor therapy and clostridium difficile infection: a contemporary systematic review and meta-analysis.

Abstract Introduction Emerging epidemiological evidence suggests that proton pump inhibitor (PPI) acid-suppression therapy is associated with an increased risk of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI). Methods Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE, ISI Web of Science, and Scopus were searched from 1990 to January 2012 for analytical studies that reported an adjusted effect estimate of the association between PPI use and CDI. We performed random-effect meta-analyses. We used the GRADE framework to interpret the findings. Results We identified 47 eligible citations (37 case-control and 14 cohort studies) with corresponding 51 effect estimates. The pooled OR was 1.65, 95% CI (1.47, 1.85), I2 = 89.9%, with evidence of publication bias suggested by a contour funnel plot. A novel regression based method was used to adjust for publication bias and resulted in an adjusted pooled OR of 1.51 (95% CI, 1.26–1.83). In a speculative analysis that assumes that this association is based on causality, and based on published baseline CDI incidence, the risk of CDI would be very low in the general population taking PPIs with an estimated NNH of 3925 at 1 year. Conclusions In this rigorously conducted systemic review and meta-analysis, we found very low quality evidence (GRADE class) for an association between PPI use and CDI that does not support a cause-effect relationship

Web-based monitoring tools for Resistive Plate Chambers in the CMS experiment at CERN

The Resistive Plate Chambers (RPC) are used in the CMS experiment at the trigger level and also in the standard offline muon reconstruction. In order to guarantee the quality of the data collected and to monitor online the detector performance, a set of tools has been developed in CMS which is heavily used in the RPC system. The Web-based monitoring (WBM) is a set of java servlets that allows users to check the performance of the hardware during data taking, providing distributions and history plots of all the parameters. The functionalities of the RPC WBM monitoring tools are presented along with studies of the detector performance as a function of growing luminosity and environmental conditions that are tracked over time
