Homochiral metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are exceptional media for heterogenous enantiodifferentation processes. Their rational design, however, is challenging. An available solution for this is moving from constitutive, structure-bearing, homochiral ligands to separating chiral selector and structural roles. This introduces combinatorial modulability, which is the independent change of parts. Such modulability circumvents limitations of designability. Further considerations narrow emphasis to covalent post-synthetic methods. Covalent post-synthetic methods to introduce chirality are reported broadly, yet the diversity of pertaining linkage chemistry is modest. The present work explored the adaptation of imine chemistry for post-synthetic chiralization. A chiral aldehyde and a chiral ketone have been probed, with respective achiral controls, on two accessible amine-functionalized MOF substrates. Modifying UiO-66 NH2 with the natural product derived (R)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-carboxaldehyde ((R)-1 aldehyde) was found to be the best-performing combination. The modification was shown to be covalent, chiral, and characteristically proceeding through imine formation. A molecular-level inquiry has furthermore revealed that the modification consists of oligomer-rich structures on the surface. In silico modeling was shown to predict the localization of the modification correctly. Recent advances in the characterization of MOF color were used to track the imine formation. A strategic approach has yielded a new synthetically facile MOF chiralization method. The modification was shown to result in a surface barrier formation. Thereby, restricted diffusion lengths in the solid phase infer good retention of resolving power in ascending van Deemter régimes in chromatography. This makes the yielding material a promising stationary phase candidate for performant chromatographic enantioseparations.

Published: January 2024

Mass spectral reference libraries are fundamental tools for compound identification in electron-ionization mass spectrometry (EI-MS). However, the inherent complexity of mass spectra and the lack of direct correlation between spectral and structural similarities present significant challenges in structure elucidation and accurate peak annotation. To address these challenges, we have introduced an approach combining CFM-EI, a fragmentation likelihood modeling tool in EI-MS data, with a multi-step complexity reduction strategy for mass-to-fragment mapping. Our methodology involves employing modified atomic environments to represent fragment ions of super small organic molecules and training a transformer model to predict the structural content of compounds based on mass and intensity data. This holistic solution not only aids in interpreting EI-MS data by providing insights into atom types but also refines cosine similarity rankings by suggesting inclusion or exclusion of specific atom types. Tests conducted on EI-MS data from the NIST database demonstrated that our approach complements conventional methods by improving spectra matching through an in-depth atomic-level analysis.

Published: January 2024

Recently, nanostar-shaped structures, including gold nanostars (NS), have drawn much attention for their potential use in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and catalysis. Yet, very few studies have been conducted on Cu-Au hybrid NS, and there are none for Cu-based NS. Herein, we describe an effective method for controlling copper oxide nanostar (ESP-PEI-CuI/IIO-NS) growth using sporopollenin as a sustainable template material. However, ESP-PEI-CuI/IIO-NS growth depends on sporopollenin surface functionalization. Sporopollenin surface activation was done by amine functionalization with polyethyleneimine (PEI), without which ESP-PEI-CuI/IIO-NS growth was not observed. The sporopollenin’s exine (outer wall) has bowl-like structures, which mediates the growth of Cu nanorods, resulting in an NS morphology. Furthermore, due to their increased surface area, ESP-PEI-CuI/IIO-NS showed excellent catalytic activity for Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions even when used in H2O and without additives under greener conditions. This approach utilising biomass as a sustainable template would pave the way for developing controlled growth of nanostructures for SERS-related and catalytic applications.

For the independence of coastal radar technology, the need for low cost RF amplifiers is a must.This paper presents simulation and realization of microstrip RF amplifier used RT/Duroid 5580 and matching stub technique worked at 9.3 GHz. This matching technique is effective for high frequency and to match the impedance with imaginer value. The active component of MGF2407A was chosen with DC fixed bias configuration. From simulation, the proposed RF amplifier has gain of 10.318 dB, S11 of -26 dB and S22 of -28 dB with P1dB compression at 11 dBm. However, during the measurement, the RF amplifier provides attenuation due to soldering, short circuit, and electro statis discharge effects. For other measured parameters met the standard requirements. This demonstrates the low success rate of realizing microstrip RF amplifiers for high frequencies.Keywords: coastal radar, power amplifier, matching stub, microstrip

Authors:   Korean Society for Young Children Becoming Curriculum, Kim Ji-Yoon , Lim Boo-Yeun
Published: January 2024

The purpose of this study is to examine through expressive theatrical play that children are rich posthuman beings. This study utilized participatory observation and a posthumanist approach, drawing on van Manen's hermeneutic phenomenological analysis method. The study was conducted at Y Kindergarten in Busan, focusing on one class of four-year-old children, from early October 2022 to the end of January 2023, with observations conducted four to five days a week, approximately from 9:00 to 13:00, totaling 70 sessions. The research findings and their significance can be summarized as follows. First, as posthuman beings, young children initiate dramatic play from the arrangement of materials, and in their dramatic play, various theatrical elements such as stories, props, characters, and backgrounds are enacted and manifested. Second, as posthuman beings, young children experience heightened dramatic experiences within their dramatic play, and their unique characteristics are expressed.Third, as posthuman beings, young children establish relationships with materials within their environment. This study is significant in that it views infants as posthuman beings and examines the emergent nature of infant existence revealed in expressive theatrical play. In the future, it is hoped that children will be recognized as posthumans in early childhood education and that expressive theatrical play will be actively carried out.

Parental involvement: Is it worthwhile to invest in family-faculty coalition for primary level EFL learning?
Authors: Mabin Mimosa , Roy Sukanto
Published: January 2024

This study deals with the significance of parental involvement in students’ English learning. It centres its focus primarily on the students and tries to explore their take on their parents’ participation regarding L2 learning and also wishes to uncover some effective methods that might be used by parents to facilitate children’s English language learning. The findings indicate that students viewed the support from their family while learning English as something nonexpendable. Not only did parents’ active involvement leave a mark on students’ academic achievement, but also it seemed to affect the students’ psychology positively. Students with a higher degree of parental involvement, in the study, displayed greater self-confidence while interacting in the target language and also were appreciative of the support that they received from home. Contrarily, their counterparts, who did not have any noteworthy assistance from their parents, regretted not having it and saw it as an obvious drawback in their L2 learning. The study also shows that parents simply reading storybooks, watching English movies, or playing word games with their children aids English learning. Hence, recommendations were made to introduce parental involvement more extensively and as an academic and instructional mechanism for more productive L2 learning.
Power and madness in Hamlet: A Foucauldian evaluation
Authors: Ritu Asha Moni , Imtiaz Naeem
Published: January 2024

For the Western consciousness, madness has always welled up simultaneously at multiple points, forming a constellation that slowly shifts from one form to another, its face perhapshiding an enigmatic truth. Meaning here is always fractured. William Shakespeare is renowned for his capacity to manufacture imagination and a great master of his use of psychological studies in the portrayals of insanity. In general, his artwork shows a keen knowledge of human nature. He has a thorough understanding of the human psyche, personality, and actions. Shakespeare's protagonist Hamlet assimilates madness in the most obstinate wisdom. This wisdom may be thin, but it reigns supreme. It presupposes and requires a perpetual doubling of the consciousness of madness, which disappears beneath the surface of madness, only to reappear again on the other side. The paper is an attempt to explore the mindscape of Prince Hamlet using the theoretical base of Michel Foucault's discourse on madness and the formation of power dichotomy. The paper also envisions a Lacanian regeneration of desire, sexuality, and narrative hegemony.

Reflective teaching is vital for improving teaching performance. Self-reflection has been expected to bring a positive impact on reflective teaching. Hence, this study explores the significance of reflective teaching with two research questions: 1) How is reflective teaching through self-reflection seen? 2) What are the best strategies for implementingreflective teaching? The study was conducted with a qualitative approach through systematic review by analyzing some studies related to the research variables. Previous studies on the research questions were formulated, followed by analyzing and synthesizing the data. The result of the study indicates that the importance of journaling or keeping a diary for teachers as a means of self-reflection is still relevant today and still plays a role in teaching reflection. However, teaching reflection alone does not completely assist teachers in receiving thorough and beneficial reflection to enhance their teaching performance. Other important strategies such as peer observation, reflection training, peer observation, and the use of students such as students' assessment and results also carry out important parts in reflective teaching.

The role of perceptions of inter-group conflict on religious radicalism: losing meaning as a mediator
Authors: Hermawan Ardy , Mashuri Ali
Published: January 2024

Indonesia as a country is still facing various kinds of national problems that have not been fully resolved. One of these problems is religious radicalism among some Muslims in this country. Examining the factors that trigger religious radicalism is thus an urgent and relevant scientific effort in Indonesia. To achieve this vision, this study aims to examine loss of significance as a mediator of the role of perceived intergroup conflict that pits Muslims against the West in explaining religious radicalism among some Muslims. This idea was tested using a correlational quantitative method with 201 Muslim participants. The results showed that, first, the higher the perceptions of conflict between Muslims and the West, the higher religious radicalism. Second, the perceived intergroup conflict increased loss of significance, and ultimately, loss of significance significantly explained the high levels of religious radicalism. Third, loss of significance mediated the positive relationship between perceived inter-group conflict and religious radicalism. The results of this study imply that religious radicalism is rooted in situational factors that strengthen individual motivation to support such an extreme, violent action.Indonesia sebagai sebuah negara masih menghadapi berbagai macam masalah nasional yang belum sepenuhnya tertangani. Salah satu permasalahan tersebut adalah radikalisme agama di kalangan sebagian Muslim di negeri ini. Meneliti faktor-faktor yang memantik radikalisme agama dengan demikian merupakan sebuah upaya ilmiah yang urgen dan relevan di Indonesia. Untuk mencapai visi tersebut, penelitian ini bertujuan menguji kehilangan makna (loss of significance) sebagai mediator peran persepsi konflik antar kelompok dalam menjelaskan radikalisme agama di kalangan sebagian Muslim. Ide ini diuji menggunakan metode kuantitatif korelasional  dengan partisipan Muslim berjumlah 201. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa, pertama, semakin tinggi persepsi konflik antara Muslim dan pihak Barat maka semakin tinggi radikalisme agama. Kedua, persepsi konflik antar kelompok tersebut meningkatkan kehilangan makna, dan kehilangan makna selanjutnya secara signifikan menjelaskan tingginya radikalisme agama. Ketiga, kehilangan makna berperan signifikan sebagai mediator hubungan positif antara persepsi konflik antar kelompok dan radikalisme agama. Hasil penelitian ini mengimplikasikan bahwa radikalisme agama bermuara pada faktor situasional yang memperkuat motivasi individu untuk mendukung tindakan ekstrim tersebut.

ABSTRACTThe Pertukaran Mahasiswa Merdeka (PMM) program provides an opportunity for students to experience the atmosphere of studying at other campuses and living life amid cultures and customs that are different from their places of origin. Nonetheless, the necessity to go far away from home and those closest to them, as well as the possibility of various new challenges has the potential to create feelings of homesickness in students. This study aims to obtain an overview of the homesickness experienced by the five informants who had undergone the PMM program in Aceh last batch and their coping efforts to overcome this. The research was conducted qualitatively with a phenomenological approach through in-depth interviews with informants. The study results show that homesickness is felt in the form of longing for home, parents, and habits usually carried out at home. The coping efforts carried out are in the form of actions that are oriented towards emotionalfocused coping such as taking a walk, buying snacks, or expressing the emotions you feel. As well as, efforts that focus on problem-focused coping such as contacting family and cooking their own food.ABSTRAKAdanya program Pertukaran Mahasiswa Merdeka (PMM) memberikan kesempatan bagi para mahasiswa untuk merasakan suasana belajar di kampus lain serta menjalani hidup di tengah-tengah kebudayaan dan kebiasaan yang berbeda dengan tempat asal.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memperoleh gambaran homesickness yang dialami oleh kelima orang informan yang telah menjalani program PMM di Aceh angkatan lalu, serta upaya coping yang mereka lakukan guna mengatasi hal tersebut. Penelitian dilakukan secara kualitatif dengan pendekatan fenomenologi melalui wawancara mendalam terhadap para informan. Hasil studi menunjukkan bahwa homesickness yang dirasakan berupa rasa rindu akan rumah, orang tua, dan kebiasaan yang biasanya dilakukan di rumah.

ABSTRACTBreast cancer patients experience recurrent negative thoughts that can cause psychological distress. This problem of psychological distress is also associated with a negative perception of all aspects of cancer, and cancer patients have a tendency to focus only on the negative possibilities that will occur. This study aims to determine the effect of providing counting blessings as one of the gratitude interventions in helping breast cancer patients cope with the psychological distress they experience. This study used a quasi-experimental method with a pre-posttest with control group design involving 22 respondents. The counting blessings activity was delivered by repeatedly asking respondents (experimental group) to write down five things for which they were grateful each day. Psychological distress was measured using the Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS) questionnaire. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant effect on the level of psychological distress (anxiety and depression) of breast cancer patients after being given the counting blessings activity (p=0.000 for anxiety and p=0.002 for depression). The efforts made by patients to focus on the positive aspects of daily life are beneficial in helping them to re-interpret what is happening in their lives.ABSTRAKPasien kanker payudara mengalami berbagai pikiran negatif berulang yang dapat menyebabkan psychological distress.

The Role of Algorithms and the Formation of Hate Speech Polarization on Twitter (Case Study of Video Content of KH Said Aqil Siradj's Visit after the Suicide Bomb Explosion at Makassar Cathedral)
Authors: Saintio Fidelis Aggiornamento
Published: January 2024

After the 2021 suicide bombing at the Makassar Cathedral church, the general chairman of PBNU, Said Aqil Siradj, visited the Makassar Cathedral to provide moral support to Catholics. The video of thevisit provoked reactions both in the digital realm and offline. Even though this visit had a positive nuance, on Twitter there were comments containing insults and hate speech. This research uses qualitative text analysis to analyze the comments that appear andanswer why video content that has a positive nuance and contains tolerance can trigger negative comments. The results of this research prove that polarized comments are not much influenced by the content. The content becomes a trigger so that like-minded people can confirm the beliefs they have long held. Apart from that, from this study, researchers see that there are things outside humans (non-humans) that shape the interpretation of social media users. This network of people with the same beliefs is united by features of social media platforms that bring users closer together,namely comments, retweets and likes.

The aim of this research is to determine the characteristics of the questionnaire for teacher burnout. In this study, Teacher Burnout questionnaire developed by Wrench et al. was used. The survey was conducted in May 2022. The sample consisted of 103 teachers. Cronbach alpha was 0.974. The results showed that the surveyed teachers experience low burnout (M = 31.53, SD = 17.89). Although being a mentor or the years of experience did not prove to be a statistically significant parameter, it is noticed that teachers who are not involved in mentoring activities express a higher feeling of burnout than mentors. Teachers who have between 11 and 30 years of experience show the signs of burnout; even young teachers (up to 5 years of service) report feeling burnout to some degree. The obtained results should be seen as indicators for next changes in the Serbian education system in terms of reducing the demands placed on teachers, especially administrative tasks. Therefore, the main recommendation is aimed at the education policy makers to take into account as many parameters as possible when introducing new changes, especially an underlying risk for teachers' burnout.
