Teenage Pregnancy in Secondary Schools: A Multiple Case Study

The purpose of this qualitative multiple case study was to describe the teenage pregnancy in secondary schools in the Philippines and delve into the lived experiences of the participants involved in the study. Five secondary school students who experienced early pregnancy without the benefit of marriage were chosen through purposive sampling. In-depth interview, observations, and field notes were utilized in the gathering of data. Using thematic analysis, major findings disclosed that pregnant students experienced physical and emotional distress, anxiety of the unknown, shame and humiliation, changes and prohibitions, love and support of significant others. Pregnant students tried to cope the situation by means of apathy, tenacity and turning to support systems. Along with the realizations of pregnant students, the study highlighted that regrets and remorse always come to fore, early pregnancy is a momentary setback, young girls should know better about life, love and sex, and that love and acceptance prevail in the end.
Macroscale bending large-deformation and microbuckling behavior of a unidirectional fiber-reinforced soft composite

Due to microscale fiber microbuckling, a fiber-reinforced soft composite demonstrates large macroscale bending deformation (e.g. 10% reversible macroscale compressive strain), which is larger than that of a convenient fiber-reinforced plastics (e.g. 1.5–2% elongation/compression at break). To investigate the deformation behavior, a normalized average energy density of a fiber-reinforced soft composite laminate was derived. By using a self-consistent approach according to the minimum energy principle, a series of analytical expressions were derived by a simplified theoretical method through solving simplified partial differential equations of average energy density. Furthermore, an improved numerical calculation method was developed using the full four terms of partial differential equations of average energy density by employing the results of simplified theoretical method as initial calculating values. The dimensionless results demonstrated that the trend correlated well between those two methods, and the improved numerical method obtained more accurate results than those of the simplified theoretical method. Analytical and numerical results in normalized expressions systematically descripted the bending large-deformation behavior including position of neutral surface and critical buckling, wavelength, amplitude, shearing strain, macroscale compressive/tensile strain, buckled fiber strain, and actuation moment. To design a fiber-reinforced soft composite for use in engineering, the simplified theoretical method is used to predict trend and obtain approximate results for preliminary design, and the improved numerical method is further used to check and obtain more accurate results on detailed design stage.
REQUEST EXPRESSION USED BY THE ENGLISH DEPARTMENT STUDENTS OF UNIVERSITY MUHAMMADIYAH OF BENGKULU

In this research the researcher want to know what are the forms and what it the request strategy that frequently used by the English department students of UMB. The objectives of this research were to know and describe the form of request expressions used by the English department students of UMB, and also to find out the request strategy that frequently used by the first semester students of English Department of UMB, Academic Year 2010-2011. The design of this research was descriptive method. The population of this research was the first semester of English Department students of UMB. The sample was 37 students from each class.

State of The Art on Functional Fabrication

Digital fabrication technologies are becoming of importance to a number of knowledge areas and sectors, including medicine, entertainment, design, engineering, education, arts and architecture, due to their accessibility and versatility. These technologies are changing the design of digital models, materials and manufacturing processes which enable to build previously unachievable physical objects. Since many constraints imposed on the design of objects have changed significantly, a growing research community is working on graphical tools and techniques to enable the conception, automation, production and usage of innovative and complex designs for fabrication. In the present work, we survey the state of the art of computer graphics contributions to functional fabrication design tools and techniques. By functional fabrication we understand the design and manufacture of physical objects which functionalities exploit the capabilities of digital fabrication technologies. These functionalities include improving the mechanics of a workpiece, producing articulated models, capturing aerodynamics, planning deformable workpieces and controlling the object's appearance and acoustics. The resulting design tools are clearly taking advantage of relevant computer graphics techniques. Furthermore, they are extending these techniques to realise new physical forms as well as bringing innovation to feed into the design space.
Theoretical modeling of two-photon absorption of benzoxazoles exhibiting excited state proton transfer

Two-photon absorption spectra of 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)benzoxazole, 2,5-bis(2-benzoxazolyl)phenol and 2,5-bis(2-benzoxazolyl)hydroquinone are modeled by time-dependent density functional theory calculations. In contrast to the linear absorption, where the transitions to the two lowest excited states are leading, the two-photon absorption cross sections are significant for the transitions to higher states which are weak in one-photon absorption spectra. The 2,5-bis(2-benzoxazolyl)phenol and 2,5-bis(2-benzoxazolyl)hydroquinone demonstrate the maximum cross section of about ten times larger than that of 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)benzoxazole. The largest value of the cross section is calculated for 2,5-bis(2-benzoxazolyl)hydroquinone to be about 1500 units of Goeppert-Mayer for excitation at 600 nm.
Functionalised Poly(Vinyl Alcohol)/Graphene Oxide as Polymer Composite Electrolyte Membranes

: Crosslinked poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) based composite films were prepared as polyelectrolyte membranes for low temperature direct ethanol fuel cells (DEFC). The membranes were functionalised by means of the addition of graphene oxide (GO) and sulfonated graphene oxide (SGO) and crosslinked with sulfosuccinic acid (SSA). The chemical structure was corroborated and suitable thermal properties were found. Although the addition of GO and SGO slightly decreased the proton conductivity of the membranes, a significant reduction of the ethanol solution swelling and crossover was encountered, more relevant for those functionalised with SGO. In general, the composite membranes were stable under simulated service conditions. The addition of GO and SGO particles permitted to buffer the loss and almost retain similar proton conductivity than prior to immersion. These membranes are alternative polyelectrolytes, which overcome current concerns of actual commercial membranes such as the high cost or the crossover phenomenon.
E-Learning 2.

— Introduction of Web 2.0 paradigm that changed the roles of Internet users in dissemination of information online. From the point of the learning processes, the way people learn has evolved from a mostly passive to a more active process thus making the transition form e-learning to e-learning 2.0. The new paradigm changes roles of participants in the learning process but also it changes the quantity and quality of the learning resources. As Internet users engage in creation and publication of new information, the quantity of available information becomes unmanageable. The need to verify and summarize information as learning resource becomes eminent. Also alternative presentation styles of information and knowledge need to be introduced in order to put this information into a manageable perspective. Goal of this paper is to present a possibly the most versatile solution to this problem called mashups. Mashups allow users to retrieve or extract the information they find useful using a number of possible presentation styles including multimedia. In this way they can select relevant facts from numerous resources and creating a new more useful resource for learning. In this paper we will present some of the mashups that are used as additional learning resources for students in courses at the Faculty of Economics and Business University of Zagreb, presenting the advantages they bring to the learning process and some of the new challenges.
Synergic Effects among Plural Extensions of Breadcrumbs for Contents Oriented Networks

—Data trafﬁc in mobile networks are rapidly growing because of the diffusion of smartphones and rich applications. It is effective to cache contents data in networks to reduce trafﬁc load. Breadcrumbs was proposed to discover cached contents efﬁciently. Each router records trace information of content download, which is called Breadcrumbs, and redirects request messages along the Breadcrumbs trail. Furthermore, several extensions of Breadcrumbs, e.g., Active BC, Hop-aware BC, MSCR, BC Scoping, have been proposed. In this paper, we evaluate mutual effects among those extensions when they are working in the networks at the same time. Evalution results revealed that combination of ABC and MSCR has the synergic effects regarding improvement of cache hit ratio.
The explanatory role of Eustress and Distress in the relationship between Extraversion and DepressionA Cross-sectional Study

Objectives: This cross-sectional study investigated the mediating roles of eustress and distress in the association between the personality trait extraversion and depression. Eustress can be defined as a positive form of stress, in which the stressor is perceived by people as challenging but not as threatening. In contrast, distress describes the negative kind of stress, which results in adverse physical and mental pressure. Investigating interrelationships would help to analyze the impact of eustress and distress on people’s mental health and might give a new perspective on the qualities of extraverts. It was hypothesized that 1) extraversion correlates positively with eustress and negatively with distress and that 2) eustress and distress mediate the relationship between extraversion and depression. Methods: The sample consisted of 159 students of the University of Twente, predominantly female and German. They completed an online questionnaire involving the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) measuring eustress and distress; the Center of Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), which measured depressive symptoms; and the Big Five Inventory (BFI; only Extraversion scale) measuring levels of the personality trait extraversion. The data were analyzed by Pearson correlation and bootstrapping by Hayes’ PROCESS SPSS macro. Conclusion: Eustress and distress display an explanatory role in the association between extraversion and depression. Further research on the matter is recommended considering extraverted people, working in a job and managing different stressors under different circumstances.
Destination descriptions in urban environments

An important difference exists between the way humans communicate route knowledge and the turn-by-turn route directions provided by the majority of current navigation services. Navigation services present route directions with the same amount of detail regardless the route segment’s significance in the instructions, user’s distance from the destination, and finally the level of user’s familiarity with particular parts of the environment. A significant feature of human-generated route directions provided to people is the hierarchical communication of route knowledge. References are made to a simplified structure of the environment. Communication partners exchange route directions assuming a shared knowledge of the coarse environment’s structure. Such destination descriptions provide an increased amount of detail as the description approaches the proximity of the destination of the route. The research presented in this thesis aims to improve the communication of navigation information by presenting a formal model enabling the selection of references for destination descriptions. The model is based on the analysis of the reflection of the structure of the urban environment in destination descriptions provided by locals. In such spatial communication, common knowledge of the coarse structure of the city is inferred. The main contribution of this thesis is the analysis of the reflection of the structure of an urban environment in the route directions exchanged between people with at least coarse knowledge of the environment, and the formalization of these principles in a computational model that enables automated selection of referents for destination descriptions. In the approach presented, the environmental elements of the city structure are hierarchically integrated together with a model of the communication processes underlying the creation of destination descriptions . Automated creation of directions with a variable level of detail will improve the ability to reflect the alteration of local conditions. The resulting route directions are usually shorter than those created by current navigation services, and thus lower the cognitive workload of the wayfinder. The benefactors of such a system are wayfinders frequently traveling to unfamiliar destinations in partially-known urban environments, such as the police, emergency management and tourism services, but also locals—everyday users of Web based navigation portals.

Problematising School-Based Mentoring for Pre-Service Primary English language Teachers

ABSTRACT Despite the growing interest in investigating the practice of mentoring during the practicum regardless of field focus, research is scarce in relation to how mentoring is seen and enacted in the area of English language teaching especially in primary schools. Drawing on interviews with fifteen student teachers and fourteen cooperating teachers, this study reports on the factors which are perceived as obstructive in preparing student teachers for English language teaching during the practicum. The following factors emerged from an analysis of the data: a) lack of subject-matter knowledge, b) prescriptive approach to mentoring, c) problematic mentoring relationship, d) ignorance of roles, e) student teachers’ reluctance to be mentored and, f) contextual factors related to failings in the educational system. Implications and suggestions for improving the current practice for preparing general teachers to teach English in primary schools are offered.
Appropriation de l’écriture scientifique de personnes étudiantes universitaires : les défis d’un programme en orientation professionnelle

The appropriation of scientific writing represents a challenge for academics, especially in graduate students’ training where the production of a dissertation or a thesis is mandatory in many programs. Although the cognitive dimension of this form of writing has been well documented, some studies underline its multidimensional character. Training programs in counseling, in particular, are characterized by disciplinary diversity where numerous epistemological positions may influence graduate students’ appropriation of scientific writing. Based on qualitative data collected with a focus group of master’s students in vocational guidance, a clinical training program involving several forms of writing, the results show that social/relational and affective dimensions also play a major role in the appropriation of scientific writing.

Data Prediction for Public Events in Professional Domains Based on Improved RNN- LSTM

The traditional data services of prediction for emergency or non-periodic events usually cannot generate satisfying result or fulfill the correct prediction purpose. However, these events are influenced by external causes, which mean certain a priori information of these events generally can be collected through the Internet. This paper studied the above problems and proposed an improved model—LSTM (Long Short-term Memory) dynamic prediction and a priori information sequence generation model by combining RNN-LSTM and public events a priori information. In prediction tasks, the model is qualified for determining trends, and its accuracy also is validated. This model generates a better performance and prediction results than the previous one. Using a priori information can increase the accuracy of prediction; LSTM can better adapt to the changes of time sequence; LSTM can be widely applied to the same type of prediction tasks, and other prediction tasks related to time sequence.
A REVIEW OF HOUGH TRANSFORMATION BASED LANE DETECTION TECHNIQUES

: This paper presents different lane detection techniques. Lane recognition is now common in a real-time vehicular ad-hoc system. Lane detection is normally helpful to localize road boundaries, determine undesired lane variations, and to enable approximation of the upcoming geometry of the road. There are different types of methods that are used for detecting lines, curves and ellipses i.e. Hough transform. The left-side and right-side lane items are then discovered nearby the intersections of the right lines and the existing scan line. The strategy developed up to now work effectively and giving accomplishment in the event when noise isn't within the images.

Multi-GPGPU Based Medical Image Processing in Hip Replacement

Image processing techniques are widely used in medical software applications. For instance, feature extraction methods such as Canny edge detector and Hough transform can be applied to radiographic images for the purpose of computing certain parameters. The large number of pixels in a radiographic image leads to slow computing times for such algorithms. GPGPU Implementations of these algorithms that reduce the computing times already exist. The novelty of the proposed approach is in taking advantage of the power of multi-GPGPU accelerated computers and other mechanisms of the CUDA architecture. The particularities of orthopedic radiographic images are also taken into account to further reduce the computing times. The new implementations were tested on a computer with two graphic cards and were compared to CPU and other GPGPU implementations. The comparison between the CPU and existing GPU implementations show that multi-GPGPU applications can add a significant performance gain to image processing applications.
