Integrasi Know-Want-Learned-Affect (KWLA) Dalam Pembelajaran Teks Anekdot Sebagai Penguatan Intrapersonal Intellegence

This article aims to integrate the (KWLA) strategy in learning the annecdote texts as a as part of intrapersonal intelligence reinforcement. The KWLA strategy consists of four columns ( What I Already Know-What I Want To Know-What I Learned - The Affect of The Story) is implemented to needed to help students understand the the contents of annecdote texts easily. In the KWLA column, learners write down what has been known, what they want to know, what has been known after understanding the text, and the effect of the story text. Another expected result, through the affect of the story column (column A) phase in this KWLA, occurs in the enforce the intrapersonal intelligence in the form of personality and empathy in the learners.
What Drives Firm-Level Stock Returns?

I use a vector autoregressive model (VAR) to decompose an individual firm's stock return into two components: changes in cash-flow expectations (i.e., cash-flow news) and changes in discount rates (i.e., expected-return news). The VAR yields three main results. First, firm-level stock returns are mainly driven by cash-flow news. For a typical stock, the variance of cash-flow news is more than twice that of expected-return news. Second, shocks to expected returns and cash flows are positively correlated for a typical small stock. Third, expected-return-news series are highly correlated across firms, while cash-flow news can largely be diversified away in aggregate portfolios.
Threshold Star-Formation Effects in the Peculiar Galaxy ARP 10 (= VV 362)

We present images of the peculiar galaxy Arp 10 which reveal two rings of concurrent star formation. Apart from a bright ring visible on early photographs of the system, an even brighter inner ring of H II regions is found within the nuclear bulge of the galaxy. A very faint ring-arc of H II regions is also seen associated with a third outer ring or shell. We detect a small companion galaxy on the minor axis of Arp 10 and an extended extra-nuclear knot which lies between the first and second rings. An investigation of the Hα fluxes in the rings reveals an increase in the emission where the ring surface density in the R-band light exceeds 21.3±0.2 mag arcsec -2
Congruity and Divergence in Perceptions of Adolescent Romantic Experience Between Chinese Parents and Adolescents

This qualitative research article explored the convergences and divergences of perceptions of adolescent romantic experience between a group of adolescents and parents in China. One-to-one, in-depth interviews were conducted with 38 adolescents (aged 15-18 years; 26 girls, 12 boys) and 27 parents (aged 40-52 years; 16 mothers, 11 fathers) from the urban areas of a northern Chinese city. Data analysis was conducted using thematic analysis and interpreted using a socio-ecological approach. Four major themes were identified: opportunities and risks, acceptable versus unacceptable sexual intimacy, generational difference, and girls’ vulnerability and “self-respect. ” In these themes, congruity and divergence of perceptions were found between the groups of adolescents and parents. These perceptions were largely influenced by traditional cultural beliefs of education, sexuality, gender, and family as well as the current socio-cultural context of modernization and globalization in China. The findings provide implications regarding how to support both adolescents and parents in managing adolescent romantic experience for adolescent health-promoting romantic and sexual behaviors.
Inhibition of a hyperpolarization-activated current by clonidine in rat dorsal root ganglion neurons.

Whole cell voltage- and current-clamp recordings were carried out to investigate the effects of clonidine, an alpha 2-adrenoceptor agonist, in L4 and L5 dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons of the rat. In voltage-clamp mode, application of 20 microM clonidine reversibly reduced the inward current evoked by hyperpolarizing voltage steps. The "clonidine-sensitive current" was obtained by subtracting the current during clonidine application from the control current, and its properties were as follows. 1) It was a slowly activating inward current evoked by hyperpolarization. 2) The reversal potential in the standard extracellular solution ([K+]o = 5 mM, [Na+]o = 151 mM) was -38.3 mV, and reduction of [Na+]o shifted it to a more negative potential, whereas an increase of [K+]o shifted it to a more positive potential, indicating that the current was carried by Na+ and K+ (PNa/PK = 0.22). 3) The relationship between the chord conductance underlying the clonidine-sensitive current and voltage could be fitted by a Boltzmann equation. These results indicate that the clonidine-sensitive current corresponds to a hyperpolarization-activated current (Ih), i.e., clonidine inhibits Ih in rat DRG neurons. DRG neurons were classified as small (15.9-32.9 microns diam), medium-sized (33-42.9 microns), and large (43-63.6 microns), and 7 of 19, 24 of 25, and 22 of 22 of these types exhibited Ih with mean +/- SE clonidine-induced inhibition values of 36.1 +/- 3.5% (n = 7), 43.1 +/- 3.7% (n = 24), and 35.1 +/- 2.7% (n = 22), respectively. Clonidine application to L4 and L5 DRG neurons excised from rats the sciatic nerves of which had been transected 14-35 days previously (transected DRG neurons) also reduced Ih. In current-clamp mode, 9 of 13 intact and 4 of 6 transected medium-sized DRG neurons that exhibited Ih responded to clonidine with hyperpolarization (> 2 mV). Some medium-sized DRG neurons exhibited repetitive action potentials in response to a depolarizing current pulse, and clonidine reduced the firing discharge frequencies in 8 of 11 intact and 3 of 4 transected neurons tested. Injection of a hyperpolarizing current pulse produced time-dependent rectification in DRG neurons that exhibited Ih, and clonidine blocked this rectification in all intact and transected neurons tested. These results suggest that inhibition of Ih due to alpha 2-adrenoceptor activation contributes to modulation of DRG neuronal activity in rats. On the basis of our findings, we discuss the possible mechanisms whereby sympathetically released norepinephrine modulates the abnormal activity of DRG neuronal cell bodies after nerve injury.

A multi server storage authentication system for cloud computing

Multi Server Computation (MSC) is used to accomplish a common computation among multiple users while keeping the data of each party secret from others. Cloud computing is a next generation computing solution in the field of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) which allows its users to use high speed infrastructure and services provided by Cloud Service Providers (CSP). Therefore, deployment of cloud based architecture for MSCs would aid in improving its performance and efficiency. However, cloud based solutions raises concerns over security of users' private data, since data is handled by an external party that cannot be trusted. Hence, it is necessary to incorporate necessary security measures to ensure the security of users' private data. In this thesis “A Multi Server Storage Authentication System for Cloud Computing” is proposed to ensure security, privacy and anonymity of user's private data. In order to achieve this, we have formulated a case involving sales data analysis of a certain organization through computing statistical parameters of sales person's private sales data on a cloud environment. Moreover, considering the results, it is conclusive that cloud platforms can be successfully deployed to improve efficiency of MSCs while ensuring the security of users' private data; which in turn provides evidence for the practicability of multi-party based cloud computing solutions.
Social context modulates idiosyncrasy of behaviour in the gregarious cockroach Blaberus discoidalis


Individuals are different, but they can work together to perform adaptive collective behaviours. Despite emerging evidence that individual variation strongly affects group performance, it is less clear to what extent individual variation is modulated by participation in collective behaviour. We examined light avoidance (negative phototaxis) in the gregarious cockroach Blaberus discoidalis, in both solitary and group contexts. Cockroaches in groups exhibit idiosyncratic light-avoidance performance that persists across days, with some individual cockroaches avoiding a light stimulus 75% of the time, and others avoiding the light just above chance (i.e. ~50% of the time). These individual differences are robust to group composition. Surprisingly, these differences do not persist when individuals are tested in isolation, but return when testing is once again done with groups. During the solo testing phase cockroaches exhibited individually consistent light-avoidance tendencies, but these differences were uncorrelated with performance in any group context. Therefore, we have observed not only that individual variation affects group-level performance, but also that whether or not a task is performed collectively can have a significant, predictable effect on how an individual behaves. That individual behavioural variation is modulated by whether a task is performed collectively has major implications for understanding variation in behaviours that are facultatively social, and it is essential that ethologists consider social context when evaluating individual behavioural differences.

Security and Interoperable-Medical-Device Systems, Part 2: Failures, Consequences, and Classification

Interoperable medical devices (IMDs) face threats due to the increased attack surface presented by interoperability and the corresponding infrastructure. Introducing networking and coordination functionalities fundamentally alters medical systems' security properties. Understanding the threats is an important first step in eventually designing security solutions for such systems. Part 2 of this two-part article defines a failure model, or the specific ways in which IMD environments might fail when attacked. An attack-consequences model expresses the combination of failures experienced by IMD environments for each attack vector. This analysis leads to interesting conclusions about regulatory classes of medical devices in IMD environments subject to attacks. Part 1 can be found here: http://doi.ieeecomputersociety. org/10.1109/MSP.2012. 128.
Teachers’ responsibility and expectations: Dependent on the school organisation?

This article presents findings from a qualitative case study focusing on teachers’ communication concerning expectations and responsibilities in different schools. The study indicates the following: (1) the connection between structural expectations and responsibility is important, (2) different expectation structures provide different opportunities for collective responsibility, and (3) expectations from others and towards others in a learning community can limit or expand opportunities to learn from each other. These findings enable a discussion on how teachers’ responsibility depends on schools’ expectations and also raise questions about teachers’ expectations towards themselves and the quality of the schools’ expectations towards the teachers.

There is a contribution (33.6%) of student's perception on majors towards student’s career planning.
Radial basis function neural network based approach to test oracle

Software testing is an important discipline, and consumes significant amount of effort. A proper strategy is required to design and generate test cases systematically and effectively. In this paper automated software test case generation with Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBFNN) has been proposed and empirically validated with the help of a case study and compared with other techniques of soft computing. Experimental results show that RBFNN is one of the best technique for automated test case generation.

Re-viewing quality of research on initial teacher education in Australia and New Zealand: a systematic review

ABSTRACT For over three decades, the discourse of quality has permeated the field of research, and there has been increasing policy interest for research assessment. In light of three conceptual perspectives and relying on a systematic literature review, this paper explores four non-traditional dimensions of criteria for assessing the quality of research on initial teacher education (ITE). The four dimensions are: innovative research questions; use for practice; research capacity building; and contribution to platforms and protocols. Covering empirical ITE research articles of Australia and New Zealand from January 2005 to October 2017, the review reveals that the majority of the articles meet most of the new criteria, which shows a different picture to that viewed through the traditional lens of research quality. The review is not intended to provide a ready-to-use framework for quality assessment of research on ITE but to exemplify the possibility that a long-contemplated, unconventional perspective on quality of research on ITE can be operationalised.
Memory Patterns Analysis for Discrete-Time Neural Networks with Periodic Coefficients and Time-Varying Transmission Delays

Some new criteria are obtained in this paper to guarantee that the N-dimensional discrete-time neural networks can have $2^N$ periodic memory patterns. Moreover, we provide the estimation of exponentially attractive basins for these memory patterns. These conditions improve and extend the existing results in the literature. Finally, numerical simulations are performed to illustrate our results.

Fine spatiotemporal activity in contracting myometrium revealed by motion-corrected calcium imaging

Calcium indicator fluorescence imaging is a key tool for investigating the physiological mechanisms that initiate and regulate myometrial contractions. However, inhomogeneous tissue motion severely limits the effective spatial resolution of measurable calcium activity. We present an image analysis method that locally tracks contractions to produce a complete description of tissue‐wide motion. This renders calcium signals measurable at the micrometre scale. Additionally, the method simultaneously extracts kinematics of the motion that will inform biomechanical models of contracting myometrium. The method is demonstrated on calcium‐imaging datasets of contracting myometrium. Using the method, we observed significant heterogeneity in calcium activity and identified a characteristic length scale of 40–50 μm below which tissue motion remains locally homogeneous. We provide freely available and modifiable code to process datasets affected by motion artefacts. The method has potential application to in vivo neuron imaging, as well as to calcium imaging of other smooth muscle tissue.
Racial Differences in Restaurant Tipping

Restaurant servers have the impression that black Americans do not tip as well as white Americans do—a perception that causes negative attitudes and actions on the servers’ part. A convenience survey of ninety-nine servers in twenty restaurants (in Maryland and Florida) lends credence to that general impression. Using 15 percent as the benchmark for a “good” tip, three-quarters of the servers stated that their black customers routinely tipped below 15 percent, while only one server said that white customers usually tipped less than 15 percent. In general, the servers’ race did not affect their responses about tip levels. In a second survey, two servers in Florida recorded their tips for a total of 151 parties over a two-week period. According to their records, nearly half of the entirely black parties tipped below15 percent, and the mean tip for all black parties was 14.29 percent. For parties composed entirely of whites, one-fifth tipped less than 15 percent, while the mean tip for all white parties was 17.27 percent.
ADULT CIGARETTE SMOKERS: HOW THEY LEARN ABOUT AND USE ELECTRONIC CIGARETTES

The purpose of this mixed methods study was to examine how a cigarette smoker learns about and uses an electronic cigarette (EC), perhaps as a way to quit smoking or reduce cigarette consumption. The study focused on evaluating the body connections to smoking and its relationship to the EC, investigating the social and material experiences related to learning to use an EC. Two theories framed this study: embodied adult learning theory and Actor Network Theory. The quantitative portion of the study utilized a longitudinal survey analysis of two surveys: the first survey looking at the use and characteristics of 53 dual EC users and smokers and the second survey analyzing this cohort for changes in EC device use. Qualitative data included two open-ended questions on the survey and in-depth interviews with 16 of the 53 survey participants with emphasis on investigating how a smoker came to know about and learn to use an EC. Qualitative data were analyzed with NVivo software. The findings of the quantitative analysis revealed that 74% of dual users intended to quit smoking with 66% quitting by the follow up. There was a significant difference in EC device use between surveys with quitters changing from a cigalike to mod device (p=0.01). The qualitative interviews added to the quantitative results, revealing three main themes around learning about and using ECs: a) sensory embodied connections to smoking and EC use; b) learning through the synergy of social and non-human systems; and c) using an EC as a step towards quitting. The studys findings provide insight on the intention of EC use and how it changes with experience, and the importance of choice and personalization for ECs to be a step towards quitting smoking. The study provides a model for how adult educators and health care providers can help smokers progress through stages of EC use in their quitting journey. It also offers implications for tobacco regulation, a better understanding of how to balance the issues with ECs while not isolating former smokers who quit with these devices, and suggestions for further research.
