Abstract must reflect the substance of the whole contents of the article and enable
to help readers to determine relevance with their interest and decide whether or
not to read the full document. The abstract consists of a statement about the
background, objective of the study or focus of discussion, method or important
research steps, findings and discussion, and conclusion. Abstract is written in
English and Indonesian, each in one paragraph, single spacing, and in total about
150-200 words.
Keywords:
keyword1; keyword2; keyword3; keyword4; keyword5 (max. 5 keyword)
Kata kunci:

1. Introduction
In Introduction, Authors should state the objectives of the work at the end of introduction
section. Before the objective, Authors should provide an adequate background, and very short
literature survey in order to record the existing solutions/method, to show which is the best of
previous researches, to show the main limitation of the previous researches, to show what do you
hope to achieve (to solve the limitation), and to show the scientific merit or novelties of the paper.
Avoid a detailed literature survey or a summary of the results. Do not describe literature survey as
author by author, but should be presented as group per method or topic reviewed which refers to
some literatures. [Times New Roman – 12 – normal].
2. Method
Results should be clear and concise. The results should summarize (scientific) findings rather
than providing data in great detail. Please highlight differences between your results or findings and
the previous publications by other researchers. The discussion should explore the significance of the
results of the work, not repeat them. A combined Results and Discussion section is often
appropriate. Avoid extensive citations and discussion of published literature. [Times New Roman –
12 – normal]. The format of tables do not use column (vertical) lines and row (horizontal) lines are
used only for the head and tail of the table.
The font of the table entry may be reduced. Figures in the table should not be over-repeated in
the narration before or after the table. Figures are written in the following format. Thousands are
marked using commas; e.g.: 1200300 is written as 1,200,300. Decimal points are marked with a
period followed by two number digits; e.g.: 12.34. For figures lower than 1, the zero is not needed;
e.g.: .12. For mathematical symbols or notations, the alphabet is italicized, but Greek letters are
written upright using the correct symbols. The equal sign is given a punch space before and after;
e.g. (English format): r = .456; p = .008. For statistical values having degrees of freedom such as t,
F, atau Z, the figure of the degree of freedom is written in braces such as t(52) = 1.234; F(1, 34) =
4.567. Statistical calculation for hypothesis testing should be completed with effect sizes; for
example: the t-test using cohen’s d, the F-test using partial eta squared, or other post-hoc tests in
line with the references under consideration. Table titles are placed before the table and placed in
the centered format. The opposites, picture titles are placed after the picture and placed in the
centered format also.
Citation in the text body should be written using the family name and years of publication (APA
style). Example:
4. Conlusions
Conclusions should answer the objectives of the research. Tells how your work advances the
field from the present state of knowledge. Without clear Conclusions, reviewers and readers will
find it difficult to judge the work, and whether or not it merits publication in the journal. Do not
repeat the Abstract, or just list experimental results. Provide a clear scientific justification for your
work, and indicate possible applications and extensions. You should also suggest future
experiments and/or point out those that are underway. [Times New Roman – 12 – normal].
5. References
The reference use APA Citation Style. The degree of sophistication of materials referred to in the
span of 10 years. The references are expected to be 80% of the primary sources originated from the
national and international journals.
Cite the main scientific publications on which your work is based. Cite only items that you have
read. Do not inflate the manuscript with too many references. Avoid excessive self-citations. Avoid
excessive citations of publications from the same region. Check each reference against the original
source (authors name, volume, issue, year, DOI Number). Please use Reference Manager
Applications like EndNote, Mendeley, Zotero, etc. Use other published articles in the same journal
as models. [Times New Roman – 12 – normal].
