Exploring the effects of Pair-Interaction Model on improving Indonesian adult learners’ English proficiency

The phenomenon of poor English language proficiency among Indonesian students suggests revisiting the instructional methods that have long been commonly used in English as a foreign language (EFL) classrooms. This long-lasting problem makes it essential for English practitioners to seek alternative approaches paving the ground for the EFL learners to reach more promising achievements. One of the approaches that may fill in this lacuna is Pair-Interaction Model (PIM). Therefore, the present study was an attempt to disclose the effects of PIM on fostering Indonesian EFL learners’ proficiency compared to the Grammar-Translation Method (GTM). For this purpose, a total of 90 first-year English students from three renowned universities in South Sulawesi, i.e. Hasanuddin University, Indonesian Moslem University situated in Makassar, and the Muhammadiyah University of Pare-Pare, were selected using a purposive sampling technique. The participants went through a pre-test, an intervention, and a post-test procedures. Findings revealed that the English proficiency of the participants who received instructions based on the principles and procedures of PIM significantly improved at the end of the interventions. This improvement was particularly seen in the participants’ grammar knowledge and speaking skills. The findings offered strong evidence that PIM can be implemented in the Indonesian classes to foster EFL learners’ proficiency. The study concludes by offering some implications for relevant stakeholders and opening up some avenues for further research.
Research gap strategies in article introductions of different rank applied linguistics journals

Research gap (RG) becomes an important rhetorical work in research article introductions in all fields, especially in a competitive research publication atmosphere. A research article (RA) submitted to a reputable journal may be rejected because the writers fail to show the ‘niche’ in reviewing previous relevant studies to justify their research project. This research aims to find how writers in Applied Linguistics (AL) published in international journals of different quality in terms of their quartile value address the novelty in their journal article introductions. Forty articles were selected from eight different reputable international journals in AL of different tiers for the corpus of this study. The content analysis method under the umbrella of the qualitative approach was applied in the data collection and analysis. Six RG strategies, as suggested by Arianto et al. (2021), were used as a model for analysis and then the linguistic features used by the writers in realizing the RGs. The results show that among the six different RG strategies, the most frequently used by international writers are Strategy 2 (inadequate research) and Strategy 4 (contradictive/conflicting evidence). Among the four groups of RAs, those published in Quartile 1 journals used the most frequent strategies. The frequent linguistic features used by international writers are adversative conjunctions and adjective-modifying nouns to signal their RG strategies. To improve the quality of an article introduction, writers, especially novice writers, should use multiple strategies with the appropriate linguistic features.
Hydrocarbon Prospect Evaluation from Remote Sensed Data in Parts of Lower Benue Trough

The search for hydrocarbons in parts of the lower Benue basin has remained comatose because of poor discoveries. The basin has attracted focused attention in the recent because of the continued discovery of commercial hydrocarbons in the contiguous basins of Chad and Niger Republics and Sudan. However, data from drilled wells revealed a number of continuous organic rich stratigraphic intervals with potentials for both oil and gas generation. With the rising global energy demand and uncertainties in supply, explorations are taking new dimensions with the adoption of new technologies. Remote sensing offers an attractive, robust and innovative reconnaissance technique that compliments the geophysical methods in hydrocarbon exploration. In the present study, a satellite image-based analysis was conducted for extracting surface lineaments and terrain attributes for hydrocarbon prospect evaluation in parts of the lower Benue basin. Advanced space borne thermal emission and reflection radiometer global digital elevation model (ASTER GDEM) and Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS data were used. Results revealed that lineament distribution, density and orientation vary across the study area. The tectonic highs (escarpment) have high prevalence of lineaments and lineament density than the lowlands/valleys, suggesting a structurally deformed area. The NE-SW is the most dominant lineament orientation and the major tectonic feature that control the structuration of the study area, while NW-SE, N-S and E-W lineament orientations are less dominant. Terrain attributes were partly lineament-controlled and lithological and could be related to the development of petroleum entrapment structures. Hydrocarbon prospect zones were delineated in medium to high lineament density areas, where lineament intersections and connectivity capable of trapping hydrocarbons is high. Therefore, Agwu, Awka, Enugu, Nsukka, Udi and Ukehe located on the escarpment are preferred prospect areas than Adanu, Nkalagu and Igumale in the flanking lowland/valley areas for detailed hydrocarbon exploration. Correlation of lineament density and surface hydrocarbon seepage in parts of the basin, revealed that high lineament density correlates with known location of hydrocarbon seepage in the study, indicating the connectivity of these lineaments with deep seated structures.

STRENGTHENING DIGITAL LITERACY AS AN EFFORT TO BUILD LIBRARIAN SKILLS IN PROVIDING REFERRAL OPTIONS TO USERS

AbstrackThe information society era 5.0 not only requires librarians to master information literacy, but also master digital literacy considering that the rapid flow of information occurs legally and illegally in cyberspace. Digital skills require librarians and users to interact interactively through the virtual world and the real world. Unfortunately, digital skills are still the main problem for librarians in carrying out their activities as professionals. practical ways such as providing references to users by relying on individual knowledge and individual preference tendencies cause users to be confused with the minimal references available and the librarian's ideology that affects references, when in fact it is not because of the availability of reference collections that availability is problematic but rather complicated collection classification methods and services. as well as the objectivity of selecting the right reference. technology, especially in the field of communication and information, is actually used to simplify activities, not to complicate them. Problems such as complex collection and service classification methods can be solved by mastering digital skills. This research tries to provide an overview of strengthening aspects of digital literacy for librarians. by using exploratory qualitative methods, aspects of digital literacy will be described through literature review and exploration of findings in the field. This research is expected to be able to answer the problem of information disruption which causes the need for library users to be hampered.
Implementasi Aplikasi Sistem Informasi Pemerintahan Daerah (SIPD) pada Dinas Perpustakaan dan Kearsipan Kabupaten Aceh Barat

The Regional Government Information System was built to facilitate the delivery of local government information to the public and was developed to produce interconnected and integrated electronic-based local government information services. This study aimed to determine the extent of the application of the Regional Government Information System application at the Library and Archives Service of West Aceh Regency. This study used qualitative methods. The data were collected with the data observation and interview, and were analyzed by using data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study illustrated that the implementation of the Regional Development Information system application at the Library and Archives Service of West Aceh Regency was not optimal. This could be indicated that the behavior of Human Resources (HR) was not ready to face the application of the regional Government Information System application in every field due to the lack of socialization and training at the Regional Apparatus Work Unit level. Therefore, the entering regional development planning data could not be finished at the time given by Bappeda in West Aceh. The implication of this research was that the local government is obliged to provide information on regional development and regional financial information which is managed in the Regional Government Information System directly integrated with the Central Government in providing the information to the public regarding the administration of local government.
Persepsi Siswa Terhadap Pembelajaran Kelas Secara Luring dengan Adaptasi Kebiasaan Baru di Era New Normal

Adaptation of new habits is a policy implemented by the government to mark a new phase in the New Normal era which is marked by re-opening of schools again for areas other than the red zone. Aceh Province as one of the regions that has succeeded in getting out of the red zone carries out offline classroom learning. Offline classroom learning is learning that requires students and teachers to attend class and learn directly while still applying adaptations to new habits such as wearing masks, keeping distance, and washing hands or using hand sanitizers while in the school environment. The method used is a quantitative method, namely by measuring students' perceptions of offline classroom learning by implementing new habit adaptations. Respondents in this study were students of class VI Elementary School 1 Alue Bilie, totaling 51 students. The data were obtained by distributing questionnaires which were then analyzed using a Likert scale. The conclusion of this study shows that students' perceptions of offline classroom learning with the adaptation of new habits are positive with a value of 84%. That is, from a total of 51 students who became respondents strongly agreed with the holding of offline classroom learning (face-to-face) with the adaptation of new habits such as wearing masks, maintaining distance, and always washing hands while in the school environment. The reason is because it is easier to understand the material in class, can ask and answer subject matter directly, besides that students also enjoy the process of working on assignments given in class directly with the teacher.
Construction and application of the ‘Learning in Zhejiang University City College’ platform, integrating teaching evaluation and management

Abstract In view of the isolation of the software and hardware teaching environment, isolation of various online teaching platforms and lack of coordination of data, it is not conducive for further promotion of ‘Internet Plus Teaching’ and the improvement of online teaching. The Trinity teaching platform, namely ‘Learning in Zhejiang University City College’ is built against the background of digitalisation reform in colleges and universities. The teaching platform integrates the smart classroom, the Zhiyun Classroom (online classroom) and the curriculum platform. The platform breaks through the limitation of time and space, connects the teaching process and implements the integrated ‘teaching, learning, evaluation and management’ based on data collaboration. It is fully applied in Zhejiang University City College, and is stable, efficient and convenient, with a high access rate and better interaction between teachers and students. It effectively implements closed-loop management of the teaching process, changes the educational form of teacher education, student learning and school management. It also adapts to the cultivation of innovative and individualised talents under the new situation, and further deepens reforms of ‘Internet Plus Teaching’. It provides a solid support for the whole process management of student learning.
Local hidden variable values without optimization procedures

The problem of computing the local hidden variable (LHV) value of a Bell inequality plays a central role in the study of quantum nonlocality. In particular, this problem is the first step towards characterizing the LHV polytope of a given scenario. In this work, we establish a relation between the LHV value of bipartite Bell inequalities and the mathematical notion of excess of a matrix. Inspired by the well developed theory of excess, we derive several results that directly impact the field of quantum nonlocality. We show infinite families of bipartite Bell inequalities for which the LHV value can be computed exactly, without needing to solve any optimization problem, for any number of measurement settings. We also find tight Bell inequalities for a large number of measurement settings.
