Use of active powder of cassava, on various time applications, to improve carrying capacity of vertisol and alfisol on dry land farming system
IN P Soetedjo , E Nguru, Y Benggu 1Agriculture Faculty, University of Nusa Cendana, Kupang , Nusa Tenggara Timur, Indonesia Email: prijo_2005@yahoo.com; ngurumaleo@yahoo.co.id; yokebenggu@gamail.com
Generally, Alfisol has low nutrients content, such as N, P, K, C organic, Mo, Mg, and poisoning of Al, Fe, and Mn. Moreover, Alfisol has medium to high bulk density, less to medium soil of permeability, low of water soil resistance, high sensitivity to erosion, and low content of soil microbiology. Similarly, Vertisol has low content of some nutrients, such as N, P, K, C organic, dominated by clay, and high water saturation. Numerous ways have been practiced to improve the capabilities of Vertisol and Alfisol, such as applying an organic fertilizer. However, some studies showed that those practices resulted in an increasing of soil compaction, and increasing of soil microbiology dormantion. Meanwhile, activities of soil microbiology are needed to improve physical soil characteristic, and improve availability of some soil nutrients. Active powder is an innovation product to improve soil microbiology activity, which finally might improve the availability of soil nutrients. Research had been done to know the effect of various time applications of powder active to improve physical and chemical characteristic of Vertisol and Alfisol ,at dry land farming system, in Kupang, Nusa Tenggara Timur. The research was a factorial research designed as a Randomized Completed Block Design, replicated 4 times. Variables of the research were two type of soil (Vertisol and Alfisol) and various time application of active powder (on planting, 7 days after panting, and 15 days after panting). Parameters observed were analyzed by analysis of variant and followed by Least Significant Different Test at 0.05 level. Results of the research showed that there was an increasing number of soil bacteria colonies, resulted from the application of powder active, on both of soil type. Similarly, the research showed that application of powder active significantly improved soil porosity, soil bulk density, total N, availability of P, and availability of K, C organic, and pH. Physical and chemical characteristic of Vertisol (total N, availability of P) improved more than Alfisol. Meanwhile, availability of K, C organic, and pH of Alfisol improved significantly better than Vertisol. Moreover, application of powder active on plantation was significantly greater than others time application of powder active. Yield of mungbean was significantly affected by time application of powder active on plantation, in which the yield of mungbean, grown in Alfisol, was higher than yield of mungbean grown in Vertisol.

Olivia de Haviland Basoeki, Eka Dyah Puspita Sari, Rulli Saragi Kupang State Polytechnic, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia State Polytechnic of Cilacap, Central Java, Indonesia Kupang State Polytechnic, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia Email: Oliviabs@yahoo.com, ekadyah.mail@gmail.com, rullysaragi93@gmail.com
A massive use of English can be seen in the commercials on television programs, in universities, offices, and others places. English is also seen as an added value in the job field because it functions as the complementary language for the employees. An employee who has good English skills can be prioritized in job interviews. Second semester students of the Electronics Engineering study program, of Kupang State Polytechnic, do not all possess the same level of English skills. They all have different English skills. Many students are not confident in speaking English in class and some of them cannot speak English at all. Realizing the current condition, questions arise, such as What are the students’ first language? How does the students’ first language affect English learning? What are the students’ problems in comprehending English or in acquiring it as their second language? The objective of this study is to identify the first language of the students and to describe the problems that the students face in learning English. The significance of this study is to improve English skills of students. Descriptive method is used in this study. The data was collected by use of a questionnaire. Fifty students participated in this study. The result of the analysis showed that Indonesian was the unanimous student first language. Students stated that Indonesian had no relation and effect on English learning. The problems they faced varied, such as pronunciation and vocabulary mastery. Further, some factors had positive effect on learning, such as schools or universities that provided English subject and made it compulsory learning. Another important factor was the teacher or lecturer. The lecturer should deliver the material in a more interesting way to make the students motivated to learn English. The Environment and hobbies practiced by students, also played important roles. The practice of listening to English songs or watching English movies could be one way to improve English learning.

Calculation of Power pumps on Otec Power Plant Ocean (Ocean thermal Energy Conversion)
Andi Hendrawan Akademi Maritim Nusantara Cilacap Mahasiswa Program Doktor Universitas Jendral Soedirman Purwokerto Email: Andi_hendrawan@amn.ac.id
In recent years, marine renewable energy has received more and more attention due to concerns regarding energy shortages, global warming and environmental pollution. Marine renewable energy includes tidal energy, current energy, wave energy, osmotic energy and ocean thermal energy. A recent study predicts a global growth in renewable energy as a response to increasing world energy demands. The OTEC (ocean thermal energy conversion) power plant is one candidate. OTEC transforms the heat stored in the surface water of tropical oceans, into mechanical work to produce energy. The purpose of this study is to create numerical equations about the amount of pump energy required in OTEC power generation systems. The results show that the energy and power of the pump is greatly influenced by OTEC power, pipe type, cold water discharge, and cold water depth. Pages 353 to 369 |

Matheus Magnus Dwinanto, Defmit Bifjum Nathaniel Riwu, Jack Carol Adolf Pah, Adi Yermia Tobe Department of Mechanical Engineering, Faculty of Science and Engineering, University of Nusa Cendana, Kupang, Indonesia. Email: acobt.dwinanto@staf>.undana.ac.id
In this article, a multi-objective design optimization of a discrete plate finned-tube evaporator by means of entropy generation minimization technique is presented. The objectives are to minimize the dimensionless entropy generation number associated with the heat transfer, with finite temperature difference, and the fluid friction with finite pressure drop using Non-dominated Sort Genetic Algorithm-II (NSGA-II) technique. The Pareto optimal frontier was obtained and a final optimal solution was selected. This multi-objective optimization resulted in a refrigerant flow length of 0.228 m (2.98% less than the refrigerant flow length before optimization) and an air flow length through the evaporator of 0.055 m (8.3% less than the air flow length through the evaporator before optimization). Thus, the heat transfer area of the optimized evaporator is less than the original evaporator, so the compact heat exchanger matrix becomes less than the original compact heat exchanger matrix.

English teachers cannot avoid using oral questionings, in EFL classroom, that can stimulate the students to interact or communicate with their classmates or teachers during the class. This study analyzed and described the oral questionings used by a prospective English teachers in a classroom. To describe the issue of this research, the descriptive method was applied. To get the data needed, the participant of the research was a prospective English teacher who was purposively chosen. The data was the script of oral questions the teacher performed during the teaching and learning process in a classroom, and recorded by using a Tape Video Recorder (TVR). To analyze the data, five techniques were applied consisting of transcribing, codifying, classifying, analyzing and discussing. The analyses was focused on WH questions and Yes/No questions. The findings showed that there was significant frequency in using each type of WH questions and Yes/No questions. “Who” questions were dominant in oral questionings. “What and why” questions were present in an average frequency. “Which and how” questions were in low frequency. While “where and when” were never used during the EFL class. The highest frequency of Yes/No questions was “Do”, followed by “Is and Can”. While; “Are” was the lowest frequency and other forms were never used. The data indicated that the prospective English teacher tended to use the “who” question instead of other WH questions and “do” questions during the teaching and learning process. Pages 384 to 399 |

Andriani Paulin Nalle, Erni Raster Klau Guidance and Counseling study program, Faculty of teacher Training and Educational Sciences of Nusa Cendana University, Kupang, 85001, Nusa Tenggara Timur, Indonesia Non-formal Education study program, Faculty of teacher Training and Educational Sciences of Nusa Cendana University, Kupang, 85001, Nusa Tenggara Timur, Indonesia Email: Irdnaina@gmail.com
People with disabilities are likely to encounter great difficulties in obtaining and maintaining employment. This state is due to performance of their duties, communicative and behavioural deficits associated with their disabilities, and social issues, such as, problems with co-workers, supervisors, or customers. It is difficult for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) to obtain and keep a job, due to their social impairment, even for those with normal intelligence. Many of them have to rely on support from their families to find a job. Although the job opportunities for individuals with severe disabilities have increased, there are still other considerations about what kind of individual disabilities would be employed. The results showed that school, as a strong foundation, has a limited contribution in assisting individuals to prepare well for employment. Furthermore, the employment sector puts forward health factors as reasons for unemployment. In terms of social and personal relationship, some people with disabilities are still afraid to express themselves and to interact with fellow workers and their supervisors, due to fears of negative impacts.
