In his presentation at the Article Review session, Dr. Daud Aris Tanudirjo, MA, as the facilitator of the activity session presented material on matters that need to be considered in writing and preparing articles before submission for publication in scientific journals. On this occasion, he emphasized that the quality of written work depends on the mastery of understanding scientific article materials, the ability to structure ideas, how to formulate problems well, and how to convey objectives clearly. The role of keywords in the structural parts of scientific journals such as abstracts must also be considered with the presentation of sentences, a maximum limit of two hundred words, and the content of a complete concise report as an outline of the main content of the article.
The presentation of the article review session also provided examples of scientific articles as material for discussion studies. “Actually, it will be more interesting so that it can arouse a certain curiosity if there is a new element, whether it is an improvement or whether it is a development,” said Dr. Daud Aris Tanudirjo, MA.
