• The article submitted with an abstract written in Indonesian and english language of 150-200 words. Abstract contains a brief description about the problem, objectives, methods, results, discussion and implication.
• The specific explanation of research article as follows
  
  PRELIMINARY
  Introduction to the article contains four ideas: (a) research background, (b) problem and insight of problem-solving plan, (c) solutions offered, (d) brief discussion of solution solutions (d) objectives and expectations about the benefits of research results. The inclusion of the term Introduction process as a subtitle that begins the contents of the article.
  In this introductory section, a summary of the contents of the background/research context, problem formulation/research focus, objectives and benefits of research, scope, and literature review. To ensure the originality of the writings and authoritative authority, this introductory section should be accompanied by reference in proportional amounts, solid, and directly to the problem. The presentation of information in it is directed to the view of the nature of the problem, the design of problem solving, and the objective formulation of the research. For example, its theoretical framework, previous research studies, historical aspects, and others. Expert citations are required to be written in this chapter.
  
  METHOD
  This section presents briefly on how the research is done. The description is presented in several paragraphs without subsections or sorted into subsections. Its content, concerning data collection techniques, subjects/samples, data collection instruments, data sources, and data analysis techniques.
