Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Jeon Eun-Young
Published: August 2022

Objectives The aim of the study is to find effective ways for implementing ER (Extensive Reading) in Korean EFL education through the investigation of the Korean university students’ perception of their firsthand ER experience.
Methods The current study adopted qualitative inquiry for research. ER approach was implemented in English Reading class at one of the flagship national universities in Korea for one semester. Research data were mostly collected from in-depth interviews, which were audio-recorded and transcribed for further analysis. The iterative and constant data comparison method of the grounded theory (Strauss & Corbin, 1990) was adopted to analyze the data. Also, the students’ reading logs were collected, in order to look into how the students’ reading habit and reading record were related to their perceptions on ER.
Results The results showed a mixed finding with regard to the students’ perceptions. The students, who showed positive perception for ER had pleasant English learning in the past and had a belief that a language should be learned naturally. Moreover, they exhibited high tolerance to ambiguity and good English proficiency. Finally, they made the best out of the ER experience by choosing appropriate books for their level and setting aside time for ER in the midst of busy schedules. However, the opposite was shown by the students’ with negative perception.
Conclusions First, it is desirable to create an English-using environment rather than English-studying environment, from an early age. Second, building up strong vocabulary should be a prerequisite before starting to read extensively. Third, reliable Lexile measure and systematic categorization of authentic books should be developed for EFL learners in order to facilitate their book selections. Finally, ER should be introduced in EFL classrooms as part of the English language curriculum.

Published: August 2022

Objectives The purpose of this study is to analyze the continuity between the current 2015 revised national curriculum standard and the subject-area curriculum. The current 2015 revised curriculum standards put an emphasis on the composition of the curriculum and presupposes the direction of teaching, learning, and evaluation in the organization and operation of the school curriculum. Considering that standards plays the same role like the constitution in school education activities, it is necessary to closely connect the development and operation direction of each curriculum presented in ‘emphasis of curriculum composition’, ‘teaching and learning’, and ‘evaluation’ with all the subject-area curriculum’s direction of ‘teaching⋅learning’, and ‘evaluation’.
Methods This study has analyzed the continuity between the current 2015 revised curriculum standards and the evaluation criterion of the elementary school’s Korean language and mathematics subjects. So, the evaluation criterion presented in the standards was first analyzed, and then the evaluation criterion for Korean and mathematics subjects were reviewed. Lastly, based on these reviews, the evaluation criterion were analyzed according to the criterion of continuity and actual situation was examined.
Results As a result, it was found that there was a gap between the evaluation method⋅precautions and the evaluation direction. In particular, educational goal-education content-teaching⋅learning-evaluation consistency, and the use of evaluation results showed insufficient connection with curriculum improvement, descriptive evaluation, and essay evaluation. Therefore, it can be said that it is necessary to apply it through the recomposition of evaluation standards that strengthen the connection with the standards in the operation of the curriculum. Also, in the case of presenting the evaluation criterion, there were cases where the evaluation method with the same meaning was presented in different terms.
Conclusions So, it is necessary to have overall unity and comprehensive completeness so that there is no difference in interpretation through constant discussion and conversation between curriculum developers. Among the curriculum standards, students' academic achievement standards can function as goals for managing educational outcomes. Therefore, the evaluation criteria presented in the curriculum should be presented more clearly so that it can play a role in presenting the direction of teaching and learning.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Cho Hyunmee , Kwon Youngchae
Published: August 2022

Objectives In this study, phenomenological research was conducted to examine real-time online experience with the Havruta teaching method and application of flipped learning in a psychiatric nursing class.
Methods In this study, eight students currently enrolled in their third year of a nursing program participated in individual in-depth interviews for data collection from March 3 to April 23, 2021. The collected data were analyzed using Colaizzi’s phenomenological method of analysis to explore the nature and meaning of experience.
Results Ten meaningful themes were derived through the real-time online experience with the Havruta Teaching Method and application of flipped learning in a psychiatric nursing class. The four theme clusters follow: (1) a teaching method that aids in longer memory retention, (2) a teaching method that boosts interest and motivation, (3) the shortage of time, and (4) a desire for improvement in parts of the lecture. In particular, the study participants noticed longer memory retention of learning material and hoped to have more classes utilizing the same instructional method in the future.
Conclusions This study demonstrated that self-driven, learner-centered teaching methods, such as the Havruta teaching method, can improve nursing students’ learning efficiency and stimulate their academic interest. Furthermore, as online learning in universities is predicted to be on the rise even after the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, efforts will be needed to modify existing teaching methods accordingly and establish appropriate ways to promote the anticipated learning outcomes.

Published: August 2022

Peripheral Blood Smear is preparations of human blood cells made by smear method and through a staining process in hematological examination to see the elements of peripheral blood cells, namely erythrocytes, leukocytes and platelets. The result of the Peripheral Blood Smear examination is the quality of the staining. This study was conducted with the aim of observing blood cells in blood smear preparations using aqueous extract from the skin of the jamblang fruit (Sygyzium cumini) as an alternative dye to replace Giemsa dye. This research was conducted by comparing the results of erythrocytes, leukocytes and platelets with Giemsa staining and using an alternative staining of fruit peel extract. The sample in this study used blood, and then it was made as a thin blood smear. The results of this study showed that only erythrocytes had a slightly good staining quality while platelets and leukocytes were not good because the acid content in Sygyzium cumini extract could not bind the cell nucleus in platelets and leukocytes. The morphology of normal erythrocyte cells obtained was round and oval disc-like (biconcave) with a purple center and pale edges.

Published: August 2022

This study explores the possibility of applying the concept of lean thinking to the choice of investment directions for technological entrepreneurship projects in the post-era era to reduce global and project risks and ensure sustainable development. The analysis of modern tools for responsible investment carried away, and the feasibility of combining an approach of sustainable development and lean thinking to create comprehensive support for the effective implementation of innovations in uncertain and complicated conditions is substantiated. Requirements for the methodological tools for selecting projects for investment formulated. They take into account the role of the organization in the investment ecosystem, support a social and environmentally friendly approach to the selection of projects, can be implemented in conditions of social distancing, and contribute to the construction of an inclusive economy of ecosystems. The concept of the methodology for choosing the directions of investment of technological entrepreneurship projects is presented, which contains two levels of decision- making — the project level and the project portfolio level. The basic principles of lean investment in the context of sustainable economic development formulated: the need to consider the long-term consequences of the implementation of a technological project; the need to assess the feasibility of the project based on the connections and relationships between the participants in the investment ecosystem; reducing the risks of financial investments for unprepared investors.

Published: August 2022

This study aims to develop a fraud disclosure model for corruption cases in the local government environment in Sulawesi through forensic accounting and investigative audits with internal auditor skepticism as moderating. Forensic accounting and investigative auditing are a series of relationships in the examination of fraud. Fraud becomes the main object that is fought in forensic accounting and is proven in investigative audits. This research was conducted by distributing questionnaires to all auditors at Finance and Development Supervisory Agency or Badan Pengawasan Keuangan dan Pembangunan (BPKP), Audit Board of the Republic of Indonesia or Badan Pemeriksa Keuangan (BPK), and internal auditors at Social Security Agency or Badan Penyelenggara Jaminan Sosial Kesehatan (BPJS Kesehatan) throughout Indonesia. The number of respondents whose opinions can be used for this study amounted to 118 questionnaires. The results showed that forensic accounting can reduce the level of disclosure of fraud. The results of other research studies also show that good investigative audit practices by auditors can reduce the level of fraud disclosure. Auditor skepticism in auditing practices can strengthen the forensic accounting relationship which results in a reduced level of fraud disclosure and investigative audit relationships which results in a reduced level of fraud disclosure.

In this paper, we consider a coupled system of two biharmonic equations
with damping and source terms of variable-exponents nonlinearities,
supplemented with initial and mixed boundary conditions. We establish an
existence and uniqueness result of a weak solution, under suitable

negative-initial energy blow up in finite time. To illustrate our
theoritical findings, we present two numerical examples.
Using empirical bode analysis, evaluating the delay margin of a fractional order-PI controller in a renewable-based distributed hybrid system
Authors: BISWAS SOUMEN , Roy Provas , chatterjee Kalyan
Published: August 2022

In recent decades, renewable energy has emerged as one of the most
promising alternatives to traditional energy sources for long-term,
uninterrupted power supply. Engineers face numerous challenges when
replacing renewable energy with con ventional energy because the
characteristics of solar and wind generation rapidly fluctuates with
environmental conditions, resulting in large synchronizing imbal ances
between different units with system delays or communication delays in
large electrical grids. They want to leverage computation delay margin
to build a control mechanism that can handle a wide range of time delays
(MADB). The authors of this article concentrate on the effects of the
fractional integral order (FOI) on the stable parameter space for the
regulation of a hybrid renewable energy based dis tributed system (DGS)
in three-area AGC configuration. By altering the fractional order range,
the delay margin () can be expanded, which can help to expand the
stability region of a time delayed system. The stable parameter spaces
of the con troller are computed stability boundary based on the
fractional integral order and time delay ( ) values, and the present
authors have developed asymptotic bode plot of time delayed
Fractional-order proportional integral (FOPI) controller and computing
delay margin () using gain margin (GM) and phase margin (PM) for this
purpose. Honey badger algorithm (HBA) has been devised for fine-tuning
the above-mentioned controller parameters. The controller’s resilience
is confirmed in the presence of random load perturbations,
nonlinearities, and parameter fluctuation.

Published: August 2022

Los simúlidos o moscas negras son una familia de dípteros en creciente estudio en España, debido a su interés como bioindica¬dores de la calidad del medio acuático y a su impacto médico-veterinario. Su estudio es limitado en las comunidades autónomas que conforman la región cantábrica, y en especial en el País Vasco, donde apenas existen trabajos sobre su ecología y descrip¬ción de las especies presentes. Se muestrearon las fases inmaduras de los simúlidos durante la primavera de 2021 en ocho cursos de agua ubicados en el núcleo urbano y suburbano de la ciudad de Vitoria-Gasteiz (Álava). Un total de ocho especies de moscas negras fueron identificadas mediante morfología clásica y análisis molecular. A partir del estudio de larvas maduras (n = 379) y de adultos emergidos (n = 351) en el laboratorio, se estimó que el grupo Simulium (Simulium) ornatum (S. intermedium, S. ornatum s.l. y S. trifasciatum) fue el conjunto de especies mayoritario, seguido del subgénero Wilhelmia (S. equinum y S. lineatum), S. (Boophthora) erythrocephalum, S. (Eusimulium) rubzovianum y Prosimulium (Prosimulium) tomosvaryi. Simulium ornatum s.l. y S. rubzovianum se capturaron en la mayoría de los cursos de agua, mientras que el resto de especies tuvieron una distribución más restringida. La riqueza de especies en los cursos de agua varió entre una y siete especies. Los sustratos de fijación más recurrentes por las fases inmaduras fueron los helófitos Typha sp. y Scirpus sp. Los simúlidos fueron más abundantes durante el primer periodo de captura. Este trabajo aporta las primeras citas de la familia Simuliidae para el País Vasco, incorpora imágenes de interés de los principales caracteres diagnósticos de larvas, pupas y adultos de las especies más abundantes, y discute sucintamente los resultados obtenidos en relación a la problemática taxonómica existente en el grupo S. ornatum.

Piper yellow mottle virus (PYMoV) is the dominant virus that causes mottle disease in black pepper (Piper nigrum). Two species of mealybugs, Ferrisia virgata and Planococcus minor have been reported as vectors of PYMoV. A different species of mealybug that has never been reported before was found in black pepper. Molecular approaches including total DNA isolation of mealybug collected from the field, mealybugs identification by DNA barcode, detection of PYMoV in single mealybugs, were conducted as an approach to identify the potential of mealybugs as PYMoV vector in the field. Mealybugs were collected from black pepper plants in Cimanggu (Bogor, West Java) and Sukamulya (Sukabumi, West Java). Characters of adult females were observed for morphological identification. Molecular-based identification of the mealybugs and PYMoV involved the following procedures: total DNA isolation, DNA amplification, nucleotide sequencing and sequence analysis. Three species of mealybugs, P. minor, F. virgata and Paracoccus marginatus were confirmed by morphological and molecular identification. This is the first report for the occurrence of P. marginatus in black pepper plants. PYMoV was successfully detected from field samples of F. virgata, P. minor and P. marginatus. This finding indicates the potential of insect vectors for disease spread and distribution.

Published: August 2022

The metaliteracy ability is a very important in today's life, especially to live in the disruptive technology era. Metaliteracy is an ability that goes beyond metacognition and technological literacy. However, the students' metalliteracy ability is still relatively low. One of the causes of the low ability is due to the learning model that has been applied so far has not been able to bring out this ability. Therefore, in this study, an RBL learning model that is integrated with the STEM approach will be applied in solving the r-Dynamic coloring problem. By r-dynamic coloring, we mean a proper k-coloring c of G if for every vertex v ∈V (G) satisfies |c(N(v))| ≥ min{r,d(v)}. The minimum k such that G has an r-dynamic coloring with k colors is called an r-dynamic chromatic number, denoted by r(G). By using the r-dynamic coloring technique, we will improve students' metaliteracy in solving the tessellation decoration problem. Therefore, in this research, the syntax of learning activities of the Research-Based Learning and STEM approach will be developed including the assesment indicator of the metaliteracy ability.

Published: August 2022

Students’ approaches to learning are an important tool used by researchers in the field of educational psychology. The theory assumes that students have two basic ways of approaching objects of knowledge, a deep one and a superficial one. Both are reasonable predictors of academic performance. The study of the learning process requires instruments to be applied to students, nevertheless, the exclusive use of self-report instruments has substantially hindered an adequate study of this process. The Laboratory for Research on Cognitive Architecture (LAICO) at the Federal University of Minas Gerais brought forth an important recent contribution to learning approaches. This is the development of the Approach-in-Process Test (Version 2) which measures the students' process when using their learning approaches. The Approach-in-Process Test (Version 2) is completely original since it is a test based on performance that measures students’ learning approach in the academic learning context. In this paper, we make a presentation of the Approach-in-Process Test (Version 2) where we show in detail its structure and content.

The vaccine breakthrough infections (BTI) among healthcare workers (HCWs) in various hospital networks in India have been studied. Apollo Hospital, PGIMER, Medanta, Civil Hospital, Park Hospital, Max, Fortis, Narayana, and Maulana Azad hospitals were included in the study. During the Delta variant surge, the BTI were reported in the range of 6-25%. By comparing the BTI rates during the severe Delta variant wave and less severe Original (Wuhan, Alpha, Beta, and Gamma) strain wave, it was worked out that the BTI were more among HCWs who were exposed to high viral load. In the initial days of the pandemic in the first wave when the total active cases were less, the rates of BTI were in the range of 1.6- 2.6%. When the viral load increased in the second deadly Delta wave, the BTI rose to 6-25%. The real-time data collected has established that the vaccination gave a protective shield against the novel coronavirus infection. Though the BTI were reported but the severity of the infection remained mild with a low hospitalisation rate and oxygen support requirement. No BTI infected HCWs succumbed to the SARS-CoV-2 infections.

Authors:   Universitas Padjadjaran, Nurul Huda Aryani
Published: August 2022

Supercapacitors are a new breakthrough in the field of energy storage, where supercapacitors have a higher power density than batteries and have a higher energy density than conventional capacitors. In this research, the electric double layer capacitor (EDLC) supercapacitor is used, where the components of the EDLC supercapacitor are electrodes, separators, and electrolytes. One aspect that affects the effectiveness of the supercapacitor is the use of electrode materials, here used electrodes made from rice husk activated carbon made through a dehydration process, carbonization at 400oC, chemical activation using 30% KOH activator and physical activation at 800oC in argon gas flow. The results of the FTIR analysis showed that the activated carbon of rice husk had C=C, C-O and C-H functional groups. The presence of these functional groups indicates the carbonization process has occurred which is characterized by the dominance of the functional groups containing carbon. The results of the EDS characterization showed that the activated carbon sample of rice husk had a carbon content of about 78% (% atomic). Based on the results of the conductivity measurement using the Four Point Probe method, the activated carbon layer of rice husk has a conductivity of 15,31 ×10^(-2) S.m^(-1) for the sample of activated carbon of rice husk without CMC 9,51 ×10^(-2) S.m^(-1) for samples with 3% CMC. The test results on supercapacitor cells with Cu Foil substrate and 2M KOH electrolyte obtained a specific capacitance value of 8,56 F/g in the test with a scanrate of 25 mV/s. If analyzed based on the ability to store charge on the ragone plot diagram, the specific capacitance value is already in the range of values for supercapacitor devices

The global pandemic has brought a halt to various economic, business, as well as tourism activities around the world. It also happens in various countries in Africa, including Sudan. Sudan’s tourism has constantly lasted out of all main economic sectors. The tourism business in Sudan provides many jobs, government revenue, and foreign exchange profits. By analyzing all the marketing actions, media regulations, crisis communication techniques, and advertising campaign components, this article aims to identify strategies used by tourism players in Sudan to re-establish a positive tourism destinations image in times of uncertainty, panic, and struggle, as well as to entice international tourists to return to Sudan’s tourist attractions. The study used qualitative content analysis of the media and marketing strategies, global and local tourism reports, and press interviews to integrate practice and theory and followed the multistep approach for transforming place image. The result shows that Sudanese actors used three strategies to restore a good image of Sudanese tourism destinations: new media strategy, available content strategy, and audience-focused strategy. This study demonstrates why this epidemic must be viewed as an opportunity to adapt to a new normal and rebuild the destination’s image for tourism in a new way.

Men’s bodies have become a commodity in the capitalist industry to compete with women’s bodies. This is because in modern life, how you look is a way to show your freedom, personality, and confidence. There are a lot of facial treatment clinics now, and one of them has helped bring up the need for both men and women in modern society to care about how they look. Instagram was chosen for this study because it is a popular social media site. Instagram makes people compare how they look and makes them feel unhappy with their bodies, which can affect each person’s body image. The goal of this study was to find out what Bening’s Clinic’s digital marketing plan was for disciplining the metrosexual men’s body on Instagram. As a research method, the Krippendorff content analysis method was used to find out what the message was about and what it meant. The posts on Instagram by @beningsclinic_jakarta from October 1, 2020, to December 31, 2020, will be the unit of analysis. Researchers chose the Krippendorff content analysis method because they wanted to look at the content of Instagram posts in a quantitative way. The researcher then tries to figure out what the @beningsclinic_jakarta Instagram post is about, how to read the symbols, and what the interaction between the symbols means. The conclusion is that Bening’s Clinic Jakarta’s digital marketing strategy in the @beningsclinic_jakarta Instagram post includes ads that are more focused on bringing up men public figures from the entertainment world as an attraction and building fantasy for potential customers, especially metrosexual men who want to discipline their bodies through facial treatments.

The East Timor Action Networkand Transnational Advocacy:Domestic Lobbying and International Pressure for Self-determinationin Timor-Leste
Authors: Lundry Chris
Published: August 2022

Many factors contributed to the timing, in August 1999, of the referendum in Timor-Leste that led to the country’s independence; among them: Suharto’s abdication, Indonesia’s vulnerability to pressure after the East Asian economic crisis, Indonesia’s confidence that it will prevail using its usual methods of intimidation and manipulation, and, of course, the political and armed struggle of who supported and died for independence in Timor-Leste. Another element was the solidarity networks that emerged among activists from various countries who exerted internal pressure on their governments to force them to change their policy towards Indonesia. This article examines the East Timor Action Network, founded in 1991 in the United States, and its lobbying and internal pressure strategy. Building on Sikkink and Keck’s model of principle-based issue networks and their ability to exert domestic pressure for international results, this article shows how the Network successfully lobbied for change in US foreign policy toward Indonesia and contributed to the selfdetermination in Timor-Leste.

Introducción

Published: August 2022

El 20 de mayo de 2022, Timor-Leste celebró veinte años desde que la Administración de Transición de las Naciones Unidas para Timor-Leste (UNTAET, por sus siglas en inglés) entregara el poder. Aunque los timorenses orientales declararon su independencia el 28 de noviembre de 1975, en un intento de obtener el reconocimiento internacional, éste no se produjo e Indonesia invadió el país sólo nueve días después. Su violenta y opresiva ocupación cobró la vida de un tercio de la población y duró hasta 1999 con el apoyo de sus aliados, entre ellos Estados Unidos, Gran Bretaña y Australia. En 1997, Indonesia se vio golpeada particularmente por la crisis económica de Asia Oriental, que condujo a la renuncia del presidente Suharto —cuyo gobierno había comenzado con un baño de sangre anticomunista en 1965— el 21 de mayo de 1998. Su sucesor, el exvicepresidente B.J. Habibie, accedió a un referéndum por la presión de los mismos gobiernos que habían apoyado la invasión de Suharto.
