Abstract

Type the abstract here (10pt). Abstract, which comprised of approximately 250 words, provides a brief description of problems, aims, the method used, and results. It emphasizes research results in which written in single line spacing with left and right margin are 0.5 cm narrower than the main text. 3 to 5 keywords must be written to describe the research scope observed, as well as the main terms undergirding the research. Keywords should be written under abstract for each language. It is arranged alphabetically and separated by a semicolon consisted of 3-5 words

INTRODUCTION (Goudy Old Style, bold, 12 pt)

The main text format consists of a flat left-right columns on A4 paper (quarto). The margin text from the left 3 cm and top are 2.54 cm, right and bottom are 2.54 cm. The manuscript is written in Microsoft Word, 1.15 space, Goudy Old Style 12 pt and maximum 12 pages, which can be downloaded at the website: https://jurnal.fkip.unismuh.ac.id/

A title of article should be the fewest possible words that accurately describe the content of the paper. Indexing and abstracting services depend on the accuracy of the title, extracting from it keywords useful in cross-referencing and computer searching. An improperly titled paper may never reach the audience for which it was intended, so be specific. The Introduction should provide a clear background, a clear statement of the problem. Typically, the introduction should summarise the context of the relevant research and explain the research's findings or any additional findings, if any, offered for discussion. This study should describe the experiments, hypotheses, and procedures.

LITERATURE REVIEW (Goudy Old Style, bold, 12 pt)

The relevant literature on the subject, the proposed approach or solution, and the new value of research, which it is innovation. It should be understandable to colleagues from a broad range of scientific disciplines. Organization and citation of the bibliography are made in APA style.

The terms in foreign languages are written italic (italic). The text should be divided into sections, each with a separate heading consecutively. The section/subsection headings should be typed on a separate line.

METHODS

Explaining research chronological, including research design, research procedure, how to test and data acquisition. The description of the course of research should be supported by references, so the explanation can be accepted scientifically. The method section must be written in Goudy Old Style, font size 12, 1.15 pt before spacing, and after spacing.

Instrument (Goudy Old Style, bold, 12 pt, capitalize each word)

Explaining research instruments. The description of the course of research should be supported by references, so the explanation can be accepted scientifically. The method section must be written in Goudy Old Style, font size 12, 1.15 pt before spacing, and after spacing.

Data Analysis

Explaining how to test and data acquisition. The description of the course of research should be supported by references, so the explanation can be accepted scientifically. The method section must be written in Goudy Old Style, font size 12, 1.15 pt before spacing, and after spacing.

RESULT AND DISCUSSION (Goudy Old Style, bold, 12 pt, uppercase)

In this section, it is explained the results of research and at the same time is given the comprehensive discussion. Results can be presented in figures, graphs, tables and others that make the reader understand easily. The discussion can be made in several sub-chapters.

Sub section 1

Equations should be placed at the center of the line and provided consecutively with equation numbers in parentheses flushed to the right margin, as in (1). The use of Microsoft Equation Editor or Math Type is preferred.

E_v-E=h/(2.m)  (k_x^2+k_y^2) (1)

All symbols that have not been mentioned in the equation should be explained in the following text.

Sub section 2

Proper citation of other works should be made to avoid plagiarism. When referring to a reference item, please use the reference with APA style. For any reference with more than 3 or more authors, only the first author is to be written followed by et al (e.g. in). Examples of reference items of different categories shown in the References section. Each items in the references section should be typed using 12 pt font size.

Provide a statement that what is expected, as stated in the "Introduction" chapter can ultimately result in "Results and Discussion" chapter, so there is compatibility. Moreover, it can also be added the prospect of the development of research results and application prospects of further studies into the next (based on result and discussion).The conclusion section must be written in Goudy Old Style, font size 12, 1.15 pt before spacing, and 1.15 pt after spacing.

REFERENCE (Goudy Old Style, bold, 12 pt, uppercase)
