Promoting Inclusion of Students with Disabilities through Equitable Classroom Practices

Inclusive education has been recognized globally as a right of persons with disabilities since the early 19th century. Equitable classroom practice are considered essential element to satisfy the needs of students with disabilities in regular setting. The main purpose of this study was to explore the use of equitable classroom practices to meet the diverse needs of students with disabilities by their teachers and to facilitate their inclusion at the Universities of the Punjab. A mixed –method research design was used to conduct the study. The population of the study comprised of teachers teaching in general sector Universities of the Punjab province and students with different disabilities. A total number of 58 university teachers and their 38 students with disabilities (20=visual impairment, 10 =physical impairment, 8 =hearing impairment) were selected from 7 public sector Universities through purposive sampling technique. Only those teachers selected who were teaching to students with disabilities since last three years at least one subject. Two different types of instruments, a structured questionnaire and a semi-structured questionnaire in a flexible fashion were used for data collection. Both of the instruments got validated after piloting. Cronbach alpha was used to estimate reliability. The content and construct validity of the structured questionnaire estimated through experts related to the inclusive education. The quantitative portion of the data analyzed through IBM version 22, with the help of non-para metric statistical analysis. Qualitative data analyzed through thematic analysis. The four border themes appeared from in-depth interviews of the students. Majority of the teachers expressed knowledge to deal students with disabilities, adaptation in content, availability of aides for SWDs and lack of adapted material as main challenges to equitable classroom practices. The study recommended use of equitable classroom practices as an obligatory element for the inclusion of persons with disabilities at university level.
Use of a Heating System to Control the Probiotic Beverage Production in Batch Bioreactor

Fermentation is a crucial bioengineering process, existentially important for modern society. The most commonly used production unit for this process is the batch bioreactor. Its main advantage is unsophisticated construction, which unfortunately results in its incapability of controlling the transient state of the fermentation process. Control of the fermentation can significantly improve the quality of the product and the economy of the process; therefore, it is useful for bioreactors to be equipped with a control system. Based on the experimental results, we used an optimization method to identify a mathematical model that describes the impact of the bioreactor’s temperature on the fermentation’s transient process. The obtained model was applied for the design and synthesis of the closed-loop control system. Simulations and experiments confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed control system. In this way, we can ensure the consistent quality of the produced probiotic product, increase the amount of the product, and shorten the fermentation time. The original results display the feasibility of the closed-loop control of the batch bioreactor’s fermentation process by changing the temperature. So far, the process has been carried without a closed-loop control system. The problem is current and has not yet been solved sufficiently. There are many attempts published; one of the last shows the possibility of controlling the fermentation process by changing the oxygen supply, which is more complex and expensive for realization than the solution from our study.
Conceptualising Co-creative Planning Pedagogies: The Community Knowledge Triangle

ABSTRACT Co-creation has emerged as a hot topic in contemporary planning pedagogies. Co-creation is seen as advancing the mutual exchange of knowledge between various actors in an educational setting. Despite the growing interest in co-creation in planning pedagogies, the potential types and flows of knowledge between learning communities are weakly conceptualised. This article proposes the community knowledge triangle as a fitting conceptual tool for understanding mutual knowledge exchange relations in co-creative settings. The triangle was utilised in a planning course to unpack the co-creative logic. The results showed that academics, practitioners and students exchanged knowledge in multiple directions, yet not in a reciprocal relationship.
Informação

Formulações da validade dedutiva clássica costumam recorrer explicitamente a modalidades: por exemplo, um argumento é classicamente dedutivamente válido se, e somente se, necessariamente se as premissas forem verdadeiras, a conclusão também é verdadeira. Não é possível abolir completamente esse apelo ao discurso modal, porque a lógica clássica é o domínio das possibilidades. Não obstante, pode-se, por intermédio de uma semântica informacional, evitar que o usuário da lógica clássica tenha de manipular modalidades, ainda que elas estejam, de algum modo, imbricadas nos infons – unidades mínimas de informação. A partir do trabalho pioneiro de Carnap e de Bar-Hillel, apresentarei duas semânticas informacionais: uma delas diretamente relacionada a mundos possíveis, e a outra relacionada aos duais de mundos possíveis.
A Novel YOLOv3 Algorithm-Based Deep Learning Approach for Waste Segregation: Towards Smart Waste Management

The colossal increase in environmental pollution and degradation, resulting in ecological imbalance, is an eye-catching concern in the contemporary era. Moreover, the proliferation in the development of smart cities across the globe necessitates the emergence of a robust smart waste management system for proper waste segregation based on its biodegradability. The present work investigates a novel approach for waste segregation for its effective recycling and disposal by utilizing a deep learning strategy. The YOLOv3 algorithm has been utilized in the Darknet neural network framework to train a self-made dataset. The network has been trained for 6 object classes (namely: cardboard, glass, metal, paper, plastic and organic waste). Moreover, for comparative assessment, the detection task has also been performed using YOLOv3-tiny to validate the competence of the YOLOv3 algorithm. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed YOLOv3 methodology yields satisfactory generalization capability for all the classes with a variety of waste items.
Experimental Investigation of High Temperature Phase Equilibria in the Nb-Al-Ti System

High temperature phase equilibria of the ternary system Nb-Al-Ti were investigated in cast and annealed alloys by SEM, X-ray diffraction, EPMA and TEM. A modified liquidus projection and an isothermal section at 1200°C are presented. The liquidus projection has been modified with regard to the extent of the γ and β primary phase fields. In the isothermal section at 1200°C the ternary T2 phase does not appear since it has been shown that this phase is not stable at this temperature

Chemical exploratory analysis of printed circuit board (PCB) using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP OES): data treatment and elements correlation

Electronic waste is the fastest growing class of residue in the world. This material presents several electric and electronic equipment (EEE) with a huge amount of base, valuable and toxic elements, thus increasing its recycling interest. This study is aimed to perform an exploratory analysis of printed circuit board (PCB) using Inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP OES). A PCB from hard disk (HD) was split in 77 sub-samples using a lathe following by mineralization process. This step was conducted without milling process. So, the sub-samples were weighted and mixed with concentrated aqua regia solution, followed by mineralization using microwave oven radiation. Twenty elements were determined by ICP OES (Al, Au, Ba, Ca, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, Nd, Ni, Pb, Pd, Pt, Sb, Sn, Ti and Zn), and Flame atomic absorption spectrometry - FAAS (Ag). With the concentration results, several graphical analyzes were performed: (1) scores map and loading plot; (2) correlation plot and; (3) PCB element distribution maps. With this exploratory analysis, it was possible visualize and understand the data, observing correlations among the elements, how close these correlations are and how is this correlation around the PCB components. This strategy was a good way to observe the PCB complexity and the importance of recycling these materials.
Expanding the vision of neurotheology: make neuroscience religion’s ally

ABSTRACT Religion and science are often deemed to conflict. Neurotheology is a new way of exploring the interface of neuroscience and religion. Neuroscience shares many of the same concerns about human welfare as religion and also provides the credibility of secular rationale, evidence, explanation, and resolution for many religious ideas for wholesome living. The analysis here reveals and explores nine categories where neuroscience can augment religious life: (1) Harm avoidance, (2) Actualization, (3) Stress reduction, (4) Positive Reinforcement, (5) Human capacity for learning, (6) Biology of love, (7) Sanctity of life, (8) Social neuroscience, and (9) Body ad brain health.
A Mechanism for the Fractionation of Isotopes in 3He-rich Solar Energetic Particle Events

By employing our charge-consistent acceleration model we demonstrate a possibility to explain the isotopic ratios observed in a number of 3He-rich events. We investigate the dependence of isotopic ratios of heavy ions on the energy of the particles, the acceleration efficiency, the product of acceleration time, and the number density of ambient electrons, of the plasma temperature, and of the spectral index of the magnetic fluctuations by which the ions are energized in the acceleration region. On the basis of the energy spectra of heavy ions and their isotopic ratios observed in the event of 2002 August 20 by the Solar Isotope Spectrometer on board the Advanced Composition Explorer (SIS/ACE) we put constraints on the plasma parameters in the acceleration region. Our investigation gives evidence that the spectral index of the fluctuations with which the ions interact is greater than 2, and that the plasma temperature is about 1 MK.
Parents’ Daily Household Activities on Child Litter Awareness: An Action Research Case

This study emanates from behaviorism theory and cooperative paradigm, which evaluates the effects of parents’ daily household activities regarding littering on children through participatory action research approach. Litter is a socio-cultural environmental issue that degrade environment. Additionally, pre-packed foods and other disposable items contribute to littering as people discard covering items on the ground after consumption. Three children from three families were case studied at home. Semi-structured interviews, pictures, questionnaire and participant observation were used to collect data. Coding process was used to analyse data. The results of the study show that parents’ daily household activities has minimal effect on children’s awareness of littering. The researcher recommends further studies to explore the impact of parents’ daily household activities on children’s understanding of environmental issues.
REALMS OF VISITORS’ EXPERIENCE TO ECOTOURISM IN BULUSAN VOLCANO NATURAL PARK, PROVINCE OF SORSOGON, PHILIPPINES

Globally, the role of protected area is recognised as solutions to environmental, social, and cultural challenges based on the current 2011-2020 International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Strategic Plan. The growing popularity of natural parks has proven to be both an opportunity and a threat to its resources; it is an opportunity to maintain the high quality of visitors’ experience, however, poses a challenge to conservation of resources for future generations. Hence, this study which employed mixed method of research that looked into the present status of Bulusan Volcano Natural Park (BVNP) as a local conservation area and assessed the visitors’ experiences as to entertainment, educational, escapism, and esthetic. Data were gathered from 200 respondents composed of on-site same-day local visitors and selected volunteers in BVNP. Findings showed that BVNP as a conservation area is committed to address park’s issues and concerns through its sound conservation strategies while fostering social and economic development with the active presence of Aggrupation of Advocates for Environmental Protection (AGAP) Bulusan, Inc. It can be noted that the four realms were experienced good by the visitors with emphasis on escapism which involves higher level of engagement and active participation in the natural settings and the destination’s environment. The feeling of being isolated from the urban society is what BVNP makes more significant to visitors. However, entertainment products should be improved to give more authentic cultural (tangible and intangible) entertainment experience. Further studies can be conducted on the relationship of visitor experience and resource protection strategies in the park.

Iron oxide nanoparticle synthesis using trigonella and tomato extracts and their antibacterial activity

ABSTRACT Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) were synthesised by combining the extracts of new plants (trigonella and tomato) with ferric chloride salt (FeCl3) via a simple chemical method at 200°C for 2 hours. The biomolecules in the extracts play an important part in transforming FeCl3 to FeO NPs, which demonstrate antibacterial properties. IONPs were characterised via X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). XRD revealed a crystallite size of 17 nm with a body centre cubic (BCC) structure (wüstite) phase for FeO NPs made using trigonella extract. FeO NPs synthesised using tomato extract were 41 nm, and the diffraction peaks revealed a BCC structure phase with excellent crystal quality. FE-SEM images demonstrated that the average grain size of Fe2O3 without using any plant extract was approximately 31.36 to 125.5 nm, while for the FeO NPs using tomato extract, it was approximately 48.18 to 77.54 nm, and for trigonella extract, 27.91 to 40.94 nm. In the FT-IR spectra of IONPs with and without plant extract, a strong peak appeared at 699 cm−1 for FeO NPs using trigonella extract and 655 cm−1 using tomato extract. Antibacterial activity of IONPs was determined by growth inhibition zones of the gram-negative bacteria Klebsiellapneumonia and gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus. The growth inhibition zones for FeO NPs using trigonella extract were 42 and 47 mm, respectively. The zones for FeO NPs using tomato extract were smaller (30 mm and 35 mm, respectively). These NPs may be effective in healing infections caused by these bacteria. Graphical abstract

Effect of Hemoglobin Levels Pregnant Women on the Predictive Value for Preeclampsia of ROT (Roll-Over Test)

Preeclampsia is a medical condition which accounts for the global incidence of maternal mortality of 76,000/year and infant mortality of 500,000/year. Early preventive action is a critical dimension to reduce the risk to the mother and the fetus. Roll Over Test (ROT) is one of the predictors of preeclampsia conducted in the 2nd trimester. High hemoglobin levels in pregnant women can lead to pregnancy hypertension, which can potentially lead to preeclampsia. This study aims to analyze the effect of hemoglobin levels on the predictive value for preeclampsia of ROT (Roll Over Test) among pregnant women. The benefits of this study are to get preventive method updates to decrease the incidence of preeclampsia in pregnant women as early as possible and to review the policy of giving Fe to all pregnant women from the 1st trimester to the 3rd trimester. The study was conducted for three months in the work area of Siwalankerto Community Health Center, Surabaya. Data on hemoglobin levels were obtained from the MCH booklet for pregnant women. ROT's preeclampsia's predictive value was obtained by checking supine values and left lateral blood pressure among 30 pregnant women. A statistical test was performed using a logistic regression test. Based on 30 samples of pregnant women, the results showed that 16 pregnant women had hemoglobin levels of >13gr/dl (53.3%), and 14 pregnant women (46.7%) had a positive predictive value of ROT. The effect test analysis results showed a positive relationship between hemoglobin levels and the predictive value for preeclampsia (p=0.04, B=1.299). Thus, pregnant women who experienced an increase in the hemoglobin levels of 1 g/dl had a potential of 1.299 times to have a positive ROT value.
Contribution of SAR Radar Imagery in the Study of the Dynamics of the Danube Island System, Giurgiu-Călăraşi Sector, Romania

Received: 7 August 2020 Accepted: 12 October 2020 SAR radar imagery allows spatial and temporal, regular and precise tracking of surfaces. The response of the radar signal is particularly sensitive to the topography, the roughness and the humidity of the grounds, thus making it possible to detect possible changes occurring between different acquisitions. The surface of the islands is formed especially of alluvial materials and covered by vegetation. The latter contributes greatly to the stability of the islands. The aim of this work is to show the contribution of radar imagery in the study of the dynamics of the Danube island system, Giurgiu-Călăraşi sector, in Romania. This study, based on amplitude images, showed the possibility of determining, locating, inventorying and mapping 11 islands (including 19 sub-islands). The radar images delimit perfectly the latter due to their sensitivity to roughness. Their surface is very rough and wet represented by a strong radiometry. On the other hand, the water surface is smooth thus giving values of low radiometry. The first results obtained show that over this period between 1995 and 2009, the changes are due mainly to weather conditions, precipitation and very high wind speeds. They also reveal an increase in sediment over this 14-year period.
Proactive Movement Through Motion Recognition in Game-Based Learning for Studying the Sundanese Language

In West Java, the use of local languages such as Sundanese among young people was less desirable than foreign languages. Some reasons came up regarding this issue such as a convenient delivery method in the learning process that caused boredom, too many vocabularies or structures, even stereotype that using local language was outdated. However, Sundanese was one of the regional languages taught in elementary and secondary schools. It was becoming mandatory local content. Based on this, game-based learning was developed as a learning medium to study the Sundanese language. The game-based learning aimed to increase the interest of children to learn Sundanese. This game was packed in a fun and interesting concept in the form of interactive puzzle matched games so that the learning process could be more effective and entertain the user. The proposed game-based learning was used Kinect as the main platform for interaction and it was operated with hand motions. This game was also tested on 26 respondents to investigate the usability and grasp their perceptions about the system. Based on the experiment, respondents agreed that the proposed game has good enough usability as learning media and interesting to play. This could be seen from the average value of the Likert scale index that reached about 76.9%.
