ABSTRACT 

Abstracts must be integrated and include an introduction, objectives, methods, results, conclusions, and suggestions. However, the abstract should be written as one paragraph with no header this. For this reason, references should be avoided. Also, non-standard or unusual abbreviations should be avoided, but it is essential they must be defined at their first mention in the abstract itself. The abstract should be written using 150 to 250 words that do not contain references and are accompanied keywords.

INTRODUCTION 

Introduction is written after the abstract and keywords. This section presents the literature review which contain at least three ideas: 1. Background or Rational research. 2. Issues and insights plan problem solving, 3. Formulation of research objectives (and expectations about the benefits of research results)

METHODS 

The methods include lines of inquiry, sampling method, analytical methods along with literature sources, modification of the analysis if there is to be explained in detail, which used experimental design, and data analysis.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 

The result and discussion must be written in the same part. They should be presented continuously, from the main result to the supporting results, and equipped with a discussion. The unit of measurement used should follow the prevailing international system. All figures and tables are placed separately at the end of manuscript pages and should be active and editable by the editor.
