LANGUAGE INTERPRETATION CHALLENGES FOR EFL STUDENTS

Despite many studies on this topic, it is a rare report that EFL students need help interpreting English to Bahasa or Bahasa to English. This study aims to reveal the challenges faced by students in interpreting and find the most appropriate solution to overcoming these challenges. The subject of this research is the fifth-semester students of the English Education Study Program of Universitas Muhammadiyah Palu. The instrument employs 10 statement items related to the difficulties that a novice interpreter might experience. The result shows that the students faced difficulties such as lack of vocabulary, terms translation, finding equivalent words, difficulty understanding pronunciation, mastery of the topic, remembering, limited time, anxiety, and concentration. While for the interpretation of numbers, the sample did not rate this as a difficulty. This study implies that teacher-educators to develop reading habits to overcome the lack of vocabulary by many models. Teacher-educators can use the original language, improve an equally good level of mastery in the source language and the target language, strengthen pronunciation skills, understand pre-condition in advance, take notes to face the memorization problem, broaden knowledge, have good preparation, realize the source of anxiety, mastering the topic to help reducing anxiety, having an excellent listening skill and self-control as the solution for concentration problem.
Exploring Students’ Perception toward Reading Class in Online Zoom Application

Prior studies show gaps in using the Zoom application for language learning with various perceptions of language learning. This study attempts to reveal students' perceptions of using the Zoom Cloud Meeting Application in teaching and learning reading classes at one of the universities in Malang. Therefore, the descriptive qualitative approach was adopted for this study. The researcher collected data using a questionnaire adapted prior study (Suadi, 2021). The findings of this study suggest that the virtual reading lesson offered via the Zoom application to students majoring in communication science at one of the universities in Malang was highly welcomed by students. Aside from that, pupils thought the Zoom application might help them improve their reading skills and overcome their shyness in virtual classroom interactions. This finding further illuminates the discrepancies in students' perceptions, which may serve as consideration for using the Zoom application in teaching and learning reading.
TEACHERS VS STUDENTS: PERCEPTIONS TOWARD THE SWITCH FROM OFFLINE TO ONLINE LEARNING AT THE PRIMARY SCHOOL LEVEL

Online learning has been one of the best available options for coping with the teaching and learning process during the pandemic era. Understanding teachers' and students' perceptions of online learning has been an important and popular research topic. The focus of the current study is ascertaining whether the teachers and students can do the online teaching and learning process optimally. The subject of the study was 15 teachers and 52 primary students of SD Muhammadiyah 03 Tumpang who have faced online learning for almost two years. This study used a survey method with an online close-ended questionnaire to capture the perceptions of students and teachers on online learning implementation. The results indicated that the teachers and students perceived online learning negatively even though they agreed it was a suitable learning system during the pandemic. The study implies that online learning may positively or negatively impact students and teachers. However, it can be an alternative to learning over a long distance, and it is also one of the ways to define the technology to the teachers and students, especially in rural schools.

UTILIZING INTERACTIVE VECTOR GRAPHICS TO ENHANCE USER EXPERIENCE IN ENGAGING WITH COMPLEX USER INTERFACE DESIGN

In the shift towards the Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR4.0), there are a multitude of user interventions that are heavily dependent on screen-based content which are highly correlated with the Internet of Things (IOT). This has raised certain usability issues, primarily when utilizing pixel graphics in dealing with complex User Interface (UI) design on devices with smaller screen size. This paper addresses the delay in timing, as the main part of the usability issue, which is caused by the increased of user interaction in completing task given. This paper studies the conversion rate outcomes from pixel graphics to interactive Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) as a solution in reducing user interaction thus enhancing overall user experience (UX). The research design focuses on 2 analysis stages, which starts with a comparison stage that is exploratory in nature, followed by a regression analytics as part of the usability testing. The comparative analysis utilizes A/B testing that is composed of a control group and a treatment group, which measures the time spent based on actions per-page, in determining the effect size of both pixel and vector graphics through specified observations. The regression analytics that follows through is explanatory in nature and measures the indirect effects of the time delay, in defining that there is a significant relationship between time spent against actions per-page. The findings contribute towards establishing a more impactful use of graphic format in the adaptation to UI design that maximizes UX outcomes, which defines effective usability towards conversion optimizations.

Community service activities at SD Negeri Gembira, Sikka Regency are to create a reading corner in the library. The purpose of creating a reading corner is to increase students' interest and motivation to read, encourage better library management, and help students to be able to take advantage of free time by reading. The activity of making a reading corner is an effort made as an answer to the problems found in the learning process in the classroom, namely that there are still students who have not been able to manage smoothly even though they have been in class VI. The use of the reading corner is made to target specifically for class VI students but does not close the opportunity to all students of SD Negeri Gembira. A series of PkM activities have been carried out from August to November 2022. All components at SD Negeri Gembira strongly support the creation of a reading corner. Learners have shown progress in learning especially reading proficiency.
Equivalence checking of quantum circuits by nonlocality

Abstract Suppose two quantum circuit chips are located at different places, for which we do not have any prior knowledge, and cannot see the internal structures either. In such a situation, a realistic and fundamental problem is to find out whether they have the same functions or not with certainty. In this paper, we show that this problem can be solved completely from the viewpoint of quantum nonlocality. Specifically, we design an elegant protocol that examines underlying quantum nonlocality, where the strongest nonlocality can be observed if and only if two quantum circuits are equivalent to each other. We show that the protocol also works approximately, where the distance between two quantum circuits can be calculated accurately by observing quantum nonlocality in an analytical manner. Furthermore, it turns out that the computational cost of our protocol is independent of the size of compared quantum circuits. Lastly, we also discuss the possibility to generalize the protocol to multipartite cases, i.e., if we do equivalence checking for multiple quantum circuits, we try to solve the problem in one go.
Undocumented x86 instructions to control the CPU at the microarchitecture level in modern INTEL processors

The purpose of this study was to uncover previously unknown vulnerabilities in Intel CPUs caused by implementation errors or backdoors embedded in system firmware, applications, and hardware. The authors have discovered the Red Unlocked debugging mode which allows microcode to be extracted from Intel Atom processors. Using this debugging mode, the internal microcode structure and the implementation of x86 instructions have been examined, and two undocumented x86 instructions were found. These undocumented x86 instructions, udbgrd and udbgwr, can read and write microarchitectural data. These instructions are assumed to be intended for Intel engineers to debug the CPU microarchitecture. However, their existence poses a cybersecurity threat: there is a working demonstration available in the public domain on how to activate the Red Unlock mode for one of the current Intel platforms. This paper presents the analysis of the udbgrd and udbgwr instructions and explains the conditions under which they can be used on commonly available platforms. This kind of research can be used to develop methods, tools, and solutions to ensure information security of systems and networks by countering threats that arise from newly identified vulnerabilities stemming from implementation defects or backdoors in system firmware, applications, and hardware.

Detecting Main Topics using Dictionary-based Topic Analysis

This paper describes a dictionary-based software for topic analysis written by the author. The dictionary was created manually. Many studies showed the advantages of using dictionaries to analyze texts. The software described here works in English and Italian languages, and it does not make use of probabilistic methods. In natural language processing, the use of a lexicon to reveal topics in a text is often avoided. Topics depend very much on the context. Assigning unique words to each topic does not help to check the topics in different contexts. However, the software, with a dictionary of about 5,500 topic words described in the paper, in many cases, allows the same word to fall into different topics. This approach allows one to find the main topics in a text, which corresponds to the most frequent topic words detected by the software. Advantages and disadvantages are discussed in the paper, along with examples. The software was extensively tested on large texts, such as Internet news corpora and classics of English and American literature, showing very high reliability in detecting the main topics. Analysis of topics in literary works demonstrates almost the same conclusions as were reached by critics.
Probing the Impact of the Eclectic Approach in the Reading Comprehension Competence of Basic Schools Pupils in Ghana: With Kuka Primary School in Focus

The paper caused an investigation into the causes of Kuka M/A Primary pupils’ inability to read comprehension passages and to sustain their interest in reading comprehension using eclectic approach. Literature was provided to support the study. Action research design was used in the study. A sample size of fifty (50) pupils was drawn from the entire school population for data gathering purposes. The instruments employed for the study were tests and observation while data were analyzed using frequency tables. The study revealed that lack of participatory activity in the classrooms, lack of pre-reading skills, absenteeism, and others were the causes of the pupils’ inability to read. The study further revealed that using an eclectic approach improves pupils’ performance in class. It became known that most of the pupils were now interested in reading comprehension passages very well because the lessons adopted the interactive activity-based approach. A number of recommendations were made to assist stakeholders of the school to make good use of this current study to improve upon their performance.

Argument structure in sociology research papers: Analysis of the Abstract and Introduction sections

Many types of argument claims and supports (premises) are made in a research paper. The study analyzed the types of claims and supports used in the Abstract and Introduction sections of sociology research papers, and the common argument patterns. Seventy papers were sampled from ten sociology journals with the highest impact factor in InCites Journal Citation Reports. The research papers were categorized into three types of research: Investigative research, Development and evaluation research, and Descriptive research. A coding scheme of claims and supports was developed. Sequential association rule mining was used to identify textual argument patterns. The study identified significant differences in argument profile across the three types of research papers, and differences in argument patterns. For example, Investigative research papers typically follow the basic argument pattern of (General statement or Research gap) … Research objective … Research method … Research result … (General result or Research contribution/recommendation) in the Abstract. However, Development &amp; Evaluation research and Descriptive research Abstracts often modify the basic pattern with Concept/theory/model-related claims and Research idea/approach. Methodology contributions of the paper include the coding scheme for argument claims and supports in research papers, and the method of analyzing argument patterns. Different types of sociology research tend to follow different argument strategies. As there is substantial overlap between argument elements and rhetorical functions, the common argument patterns identified in this study suggest common rhetorical move/step patterns as well.
Succinct summaries of research methods

In research writing, one of the challenging questions is about the extent to which methods need to be succinctly summarised in introductory sections. To answer this intriguing question, Swales’ (2004) genre-based analytical framework was used to examine the frequencies of method summaries (MSs) in the research article introductions (RAIs) in two major social science disciplines, namely Ethnic Studies (ES) and Industrial Relations (IR), which have been overlooked in previous studies. Apart from examining expert writers’ recurrent lexico-grammatical resources, semi-structured interviews were conducted with six specialist informants in both disciplines. We have found that the MSs are characterised by the recurrent use of prepositional phrases expressing data sources, cardinal numerals accentuating subjects’ involvement, post-modifying structures describing samples, and verb-infinitive/preposition structures signalling facilitation. IR researchers exhibit a greater propensity to foreground MSs than ES researchers, and the difference is ascribable to the underlying philosophical assumptions behind the adoption of methodological approaches. In our concluding remarks, we (i) demonstrate how findings based on an analysis of salient language resources can help instructors make informed decisions while guiding learners to craft a cogent method summary, and (ii) argue that the information derived from our textual analysis and specialist informants’ inputs can further contribute to our understanding of expert writers’ rhetorical practices across different social science disciplines.

University setting and infrastructure for the people’s well-being: Universidad de Guadalajara in the face of the pandemic

From the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in Mexico, the University of Guadalajara (UdeG) placed its infrastructure, —particularly schools, laboratories, research centers and institutes, and departments related to the areas of health and human resources— at the service of civil authorities and the population in general. Before any other public university in Mexico, UdeG implemented and published measures to prevent COVID-19 infections, which began with the suspension of public meetings and face-to-face activities, and the installation of a Health Situation Room, and which continued with the Enabling of the Active COVID-19 Detection System, the reconversion of the Civil Hospitals of Guadalajara, until reaching the Design of the Vaccination Plan, to name a few. The objective of this article is to describe how actions related to the management of the university environment and infrastructure not only put the largest state public university in the country at people’s service as never before, but also about how we have been forced to reconceptualize the mission and vision of higher education based on the needs identified during the pandemic, from a humanistic, integrative, unitary, global and interdisciplinary perspective.Keyword: COVID-19, universities, setting and infrastructure, health sciences, innovation
