Published: November 2021

With the development of the era in the era of the industrial revolution 4.0, the world of education continues to develop and improve 21st century competencies. Based on the program initiated by the Minister of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia, the Ministry of Education and Culture has set 4 main policies in the field of national education through the "Independent Learning" program. One of the main points of the policy is related to the Learning Implementation Plan (RPP). Based on this, the writer aims to describe how the policy of the independent learning program is in the preparation of the Thematic Learning Implementation Plan (RPP). The method used in this paper is a descriptive qualitative content analysis method. The writing shows the results that, First, based on the drafting concept in making RPP with the existing format, it is considered more rigid. Thus, the policy of the independent learning program is in trimming the RPP from the original 13 components to only 3 components. It is considered more efficient and effective, which will allow the teacher to have a lot of time to prepare and evaluate the learning process that will be implemented. Second, the preparation of the Learning Implementation Plan (RPP) must have and pay attention to the main principles, namely: (1) efficient, writing RPP is done correctly and does not spend much time and energy; (2) effective, writing lesson plans is done to achieve learning objectives; and (3) student-oriented, RPP writing is carried out by considering the readiness, ability, and learning needs of students in class, so that later it can increase students' interest in learning. Third, simplifying the Learning Implementation Plan (RPP) for thematic learning.

Authors: Ridwan  , Wahyuningsih Sri , Winarno Winarno
Published: November 2021

The objectives of the present research were to describe the characteristics of authentic assessment used in the English Textbook “Stop Bullying Now” and to find out the characteristics of the most dominant authentic assessment applied in the book “Stop Bullying Now” used for the eleventh grade students of senior high school. This research was a library research using a qualitative descriptive approach. The data which were obtained from document analysis were analyzed using concurrent activity flows from (Miles et al, 2014). The results of this research showed that the textbook had applied authentic assessments to all English skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. However, among the four skills, listening was the skill with the least activity. The textbook applied eight out of nine characteristics (realistic activity or context, cognitively complex, performance-based, formative assessment, collaborative, defense is required, multiple indicators or portfolio, and mastery expectation). The textbook did not apply the criteria known by students because it did not illustrate how teacher assessed students’ work. The most dominant criteria used in this textbook was realistic activity or context. This textbook also took a lot of materials related to the real-life of students.

Calidad Educativa, Investigación y Educación
Authors: Castaño Hinestroza Mauricio
Published: November 2021

El presente ensayo pretende dar una mirada crítica del hacer investigativo que es todo un ideal sin su realización en la enseñanza. Se pasa revista por la importancia y lo necesario que es investigar en el ejercicio docente, incluso se considera que uno y otro deben ir en dupla, el uno es solidario del otro, se retroalimentan. Igualmente se intenta explicar las razones que han imposibilitado para que este ideal se haya materializado. Se explora el quiebre del contenido a favor de la forma en el proceso de enseñanza, importa más la metodología que lo que se enseña, muestra de ello son las denominadas facultades de educación universitaria que se centran en este proceso de tan sólo la forma, sus egresados salen con grandes habilidades de fórmulas o métodos para enseñar pero no tienen ningún dominio de un saber específico o como se ha dicho una y otra vez son muy buenos en nada.
La investigación como parte de la práctica docente
Authors: Cortés Gamba Bertha Rocío , Puentes Herrán Edna Lisseth , Rivera Acosta Dean Alejandro
Published: November 2021

Es innato en el ser humano la necesidad de hacer investigación, de cuestionar, analizar y hallar respuestas a sus diversos interrogantes, generando una estrecha relación entre el saber y la ciencia. Es de reconocer que con el paso de los años el protagonismo de los educadores ha venido cambiando, anteriormente un docente estaba limitado a transferir contenidos disciplinares en los estudiantes. Sin embargo, en la actualidad el maestro indaga en los educandos sus saberes y experiencias previas; permitiendo que la epistemología tome fuerza en el quehacer educativo. Otro aspecto que aborda el presente documento, es la epistemología quien se encarga de las circunstancias históricas, psicológicas y sociales que llevan a la obtención del conocimiento además de los criterios que permiten invalidar o justificar esos conocimientos. Además plantea las realidades educativas del mundo que han enfrentado procesos acelerados de transformaciones a nivel social, económico, tecnológico, ambiental y cultural; es ahí donde los estudios epistemológicos responden a los grandes interrogantes que surgen en la labor educativa. La importancia de investigar dentro de la práctica docente, conduce a mejorar la calidad de enseñanza y del aprendizaje en cualquiera que sea el ámbito educativo. También, se resalta la investigación como un proceso riguroso, cuidadoso y sistematizado en el que se busca solucionar problemas, ya que al hablar de investigación científica, es posible desarrollar dos enfoques importantes: el cualitativo y el cuantitativo; aunque ambas en general son parte de la investigación científica.
Actividad investigativa y su rol en la educación y la formación docente
Authors: Berrocal Ospino Mercy , Iglet Páez Jhoana
Published: November 2021

La investigación educativa es un proceso que lleva a la búsqueda de una explicación a los problemas de la realidad de la educación, análisis de datos el desarrollo de enfoques, entre otros; ayudándonos a realizar una planificación acordes a las políticas educativas nacionales. Al realizar una investigación educativa se busca encontrar soluciones a las necesidades sociales creando un impacto positivo mejorando la calidad educativa. Cuando un docente es quien decide implementar una investigación desde su aula, se tiene la concepción de que no puede combinar ambas actividades de forma eficiente, como si necesitase habilidades completamente diferentes y completamente opuestas. El docente puede considerarse un investigador y para ello necesita una formación metodológica sólida, si el docente cumple con dicha formación estaría en la capacidad de llevar a cabo una investigación educativa eficaz. Cuando un docente genera conocimiento desde su propia práctica o experiencia no debe parecernos algo anormal pues al reflexionar en torno a su quehacer profesional notaremos que el aula de clases es su laboratorio de trabajo y que su accionar pedagógico son sus intervenciones experimentales. Los docentes necesitan tener las condiciones que les ayuden a realizar un buen trabajo de campo y esto solo puede lograrse por medio de centros formadores y del empeño de los propios profesores quienes deben buscar la liberación de tiempo para hacerlo y las herramientas necesarias para tal fin; cabe resaltar que un docente sin formación a través de la investigación no contará con las herramientas suficientes para realizar una buena actividad investigadora, es por esto que si queremos cambiar la forma en que los profesores se enfrentan a una investigación educativa se deben reorganizar o replantear los planes de estudio para los futuros profesionales docentes.
ISAIAS MELO: Pilar de nuestra historia y ejemplo de nuevas generaciones
Authors: Salas Moncayo Gerardo
Published: November 2021

El presente artículo reivindica la figura del profesor Isaías Melo, quién se destacó por sus condiciones pedagógicas y didácticas para desarrollar procesos de enseñanza de la música en el municipio de El Tambo Nariño, Colombia. Para el logro de este cometido se indaga de manera heurística sobre algunos aspectos de su quehacer pedagógico - musical, recurriendo a testimonios de familiares y discípulos del maestro; además se averigua sobre su vida y obra en los archivos municipal y eclesiástico de El Tambo N. Entre los resultados de esta indagación se puede señalar que el profesor Isaías Melo fundamentado en su auto didactismo y liderazgo, desarrolló un método educativo-musical pertinente a las necesidades comunitarias y al momento histórico. Se centró en el afecto, la comunicación y el amor a su patria chica, donde la mujer tuvo un notorio y valiosos protagonismo. Se devela también la imagen de un hombre virtuoso, generoso con sus enseñanzas y polifacético en su perfil ocupacional. Su simiente musical ha sido prolífica y el variado rizoma que de ella germinó, continúa fructificando en la actualidad como inagotable fuente que nos trae el recuerdo de este hombre visionario. El festival de música de cámara “Isaías Melo” que anualmente se celebra en el municipio de El Tambo es una muestra de gratitud que la posteridad le brinda, haciendo justicia al invaluable aporte del maestro.
El rostro de la persona en la investigación con estudio de casos

Published: November 2021

El ensayo que se propone es de naturaleza documental, la pretensión es develar la relación existente entre la metáfora rostro y persona con los procesos de indagación que comporta la investigación con estudio de casos.  El fondo del tejido conceptual sobre el que se construyen los argumentos está dado por la necesidad de poner acento en la participación de los implicados y su rol protagónico en la obtención de una experiencia de investigación que trasciende las generalizaciones estadísticas, los análisis cuantitativos, la predicción y la medición probabilística.  El foco de interés es establecer que la persona desde la subjetividad construida a través del rostro como recurso simbólico e imaginativo es determinante en la elaboración de un estudio de casos que concrete su pertinencia científica y social a partir de los modelos mentales, la comprensión analítica y la interpretación critica de una unidad de análisis, un hecho o un fenómeno en su relación directa con el contexto de los participantes.

Social Status Retention in the Beyond: the Phobia of Man
Authors: Emeng Gideon Imoke
Published: November 2021

Religions include the participation of a community of people who have a common spiritual belief system. It is possible to connect one's own spiritual views with those of others via different religious activities. As a result of social interaction, personal ideas may be shaped and deepened. Both religious ideas and human transpersonal experiences may convey the core of human existence. Religious ideas about life after death may affect how individuals conduct their lives in the here and now. This paper argues that human beings have the inborn drive for statuses. All religions of the world placed serious priority on them, so much: in the ranking of adherents and in the hereafter. Other social institutions see the necessity in statuses placements to enhance productivity, efficiency, proficiency, and profitability. Man in his imagination and realization of this, concludes that the right place to acquire the status is here on earth as the springboard to that of the beyond. He gets it first and this will be maintained in the beyond. By the beyond here we mean abodes after the earthly life. Christianity calls them paradise and hell, likewise Islam and Buddhism describe it as Nirvana. African Traditional Religion mentioned it as the home of the ancestors and the dead. Hinduism has its own as the several reincarnations where the individual soul strives to unite with the supreme Reality also called Brahman. This paper investigates Social Status in the Beyond.
PHONETIC FEATURES OF THE KIZLYAR SUBDIALECT OF THE TEREK DIALECT OF THE KUMYK LANGUAGE IN THE COMPARATIVE-HISTORICAL AND AREAL CONTEXT
Authors: Гусейнов Гарун-Рашид Абдул-Кадырович
Published: November 2021

Предметом непосредственного анализа является фонетическая система изолированного кизлярского (селения Кизляр, Предгорное и Малый Малгобек Северной Осетии - Алании) говора терского диалекта кумыкского языка. Данный говор еще не становился предметом специального рассмотрения как в отношении его синхронного описания, так и в исследуемом отношении. Цель настоящей публикации - диахронно ориентированный анализ фонетических особенностей кизлярского говора в широком ареальном и сравнительно-историческом контексте его взаимоотношений с другими кумыкскими диалектами и иными древними и новыми тюркскими языками, включая булгарский (чувашский). На основе положения о первичной локализации древних булгарских диалектов в северокавказской области было установлено более раннее, чем в чувашском, субстратное происхождение некоторых фонетических (вокалических и консонантных) особенностей данного говора. Они вкупе с некоторыми иными кумыкскими диалектами и отчасти карачаево-балкарскими говорами могут восходить к древним булгарским диалектам Северного Кавказа и Дагестана. В результате раннесредневековой и последующей миграции их носителей в Поволжье эти особенности отложились в чувашском языке на различных этапах его предыстории и истории. В говоре обнаруживаются и отдельные, возможно, более поздние черты, обязанные своим происхождением ареально смежным тюркским языкам.

The subject of the analysis is the phonetic system of the isolated Kizlyar (Kizlyar, Podgornoe and Maly Malgobek villages of North Ossetia-Alania) subdialect of the Terek dialect of the Kumyk language. This subdialect has not yet been the subject of special consideration, both with regard to its synchronous description and of the investigated relation. The purpose of this publication is a diachronically oriented analysis of the phonetic features of the Kizlyar subdialect in the wide areal and comparative-historical context of its relationship with other Kumyk dialects and other ancient and new Turkic languages, including Bulgar (Chuvash). Based on the provision on the primary localization of ancient Bulgarian dialects in the North Caucasus region, an earlier substrate origin of some phonetic (vocal and consonant) features of this dialect were established than in Chuvash. They, together with some other Kumyk dialects and partly Karachay-Balkarian subdialects, can go back to the ancient Bulgarian dialects of the North Caucasus and Dagestan. As a result of the early medieval and subsequent migration of their speakers to the Volga region, these features were deposited in the Chuvash language at various stages of its prehistory and history. In the subdialect, separate, possibly later features are also found, obligated by their origin to areally adjacent Turkic languages.
STRATEGIES FOR TRANSLATION OF BLOCK’S POEM “THOSE, BORN IN THE TIMES QUIET AND DREAR...” INTO ENGLISH
Authors: Зайцева Елена Львовна , Гурьянова Татьяна Юрьевна , Фадеева Кристина Валериевна
Published: November 2021

В статье рассматриваются особенности перевода стихотворения А. Блока «Рожденные в года глухие…» на английский язык. Авторы проводят анализ использования переводческих трансформаций в переводах Е. Бонвера и В. Гурвича. Добавления и перестановки используются для сохранения рифмы и ритмического рисунка стихотворения, но могут и помешать передаче поэтического своеобразия и индивидуально-авторского стиля. Переводчикам удалось сохранить форму и перевести стихотворение именно стихотворением, но потери ритма, рифмы, использование других стихотворных размеров либо уход к свободному стихотворению со свободной рифмой были неизбежны. Е. Бонвер в своем переводе старается придерживаться лексики, данной в оригинале, находить эквиваленты, которые будут близки по смыслу и будут подходить по ритму и рифме, а В. Гурвич уходит от прямой передачи лексики к передаче целого образа посредством других слов и конструкций, что, однако, не ведет к потере эмоционального посыла, который закладывал автор. Опущения в переводах обоих авторов вызваны, возможно, недостаточным изучением анализа стихотворения или темы, которой оно посвящено. Анализ переводов показывает, что наиболее популярными трансформациями, используемыми переводчиками, являются добавления и перестановки, вызванные различиями в синтаксисе русского и английского языков.

The article considers the peculiarities of the translation of A. Blok's poem “Those, born in the times quiet and drear...” into English. The authors analyze the use of translation transformations in the translations by E. Bonver and V. Gurvich. Additions and permutations are used to preserve the rhyme and rhythmic pattern of the poem. However, such transformations may prevent the transfer of poetic originality and individual author’s style. The translators managed to keep the form and to preserve the form of a poem, but the loss of rhythm, rhyme, the use of other verse sizes, of a free poem with a free rhyme was inevitable. E. Bonver in his translation tries to adhere to the vocabulary given in the original, to find equivalents that will be close in meaning and will fit in rhythm and rhyme. V. Gurvich moves away from the direct transmission of vocabulary to the transmission of the whole image, through other words and constructions, which, however, does not result in the loss of the emotional message of the author. The omissions in the translations of both authors are probably due to insufficient study of the analysis of the poem or the topic to which it is devoted. The analysis of translations shows that the most frequent transformations used by translators are additions and permutations caused by differences in the syntax of the Russian and English languages.
PERIPHERAL ELEMENTS OF THE LEXICO-SEMANTIC FIELD “21st CENTURY CHINA”
Authors: Мартынова Ирина Николаевна
Published: November 2021

В настоящее время средства массовой информации, включая электронные ресурсы, играют значительную роль в формировании общественного мнения по различным вопросам. Это в равной степени можно отнести и к вопросам политики, например, к предоставлению информации о различных странах. Анализ лексических единиц и их подбора для описания образа того или иного государства может быть выполнен с использованием концептуального подхода и теории лексико-семантического поля. Автор статьи анализирует, каким образом Китай представлен в американских газетах и журналах, изданных во втором десятилетии XXI века. Взаимоотношения между двумя крупнейшими экономиками мира представляют огромный интерес для всех остальных стран. Кроме того, Китай выступает в качестве особого политического и торгового партнера России, и это придает всему, что связано с этой страной, особую значимость. Данное исследование является второй частью работы по данной теме; в нем представлен анализ периферических единиц лексико-семантического поля «Китай XXI века». Это такие микрополя, как «Китай - механизм», «Китай - проблема», «Природа», «Здоровье», «Китай - родственник». В статье освещаются лексемы, составляющие данные микрополя, а также приводится анализ возможных причин их употребления в том или ином контексте.

Nowadays mass media including electronic resources play a significant role in creating popular opinion on various issues. It stands true for political questions such as proving information about countries. Analysis of lexical units and their choice to describe an image of a country can be done through the use of the conceptual scientific approach and the theory of lexico-semantic fields. The author of the article analyzes how China was represented in American newspapers and magazines in the second decade of the 21st century. Relations between two largest economies in the world are of a great importance to all other countries. Besides, China is a special political and trade partner of Russia, and it makes everything connected with this country particularly significant. This study is the second part of the research on this topic that focuses on the periphery elements of the lexico-semantic field “21st century China”. The analysis showed that these are the following microfields: “China is a mechanism”, “China is a problem”, “Nature”, “Health” and “China is a relative”. The article highlights the lexemes comprising these microfields and discusses the possible meanings and ideas expressed by them.
SCIENTIFIC ARCHIVES OF THE CHUVASH STATE INSTITUTE OF HUMANITIES AND THE DICTIONARY OF CHUVASH LANGUAGE BY N. I. ASHMARIN: COMPARATIVE STUDY OF LEXICAL MATERIAL
Authors: Салмин Антон Кириллович
Published: November 2021

Актуальность и необходимость статьи обусловлена отсутствием сравнительно-сопоставительного анализа фондов Научного архива Чувашского государственного института гуманитарных наук (НА ЧГИГН) и 17-ти томного капитального словаря «Чӑваш сӑмахĕсен кĕнеки. Словарь чувашского языка. The saurus linguae Tschuvaschorum» («Словаря») члена-корреспондента АН СССР Н. И. Ашмарина. Написанный и изданный в первой половине XX в., «Словарь» опирается на тексты, хранящиеся в названном архиве, и отражает повседневную жизнь и лексику традиционного чувашского общества из области истории, археологии, религии, этнографии, языка, искусства и фольклора. Несомненно, «Словарь» является сокровищем чувашского народа, он полнее и ценнее всех имеющихся словарей чувашского языка, оценен лингвистами России и мира очень высоко. Следует согласиться с высказанным мнением о том, что чувашский народ может гордиться тем, что имеет такой превосходный словарь. Все примеры автором статьи приводятся из первоисточников DE VISU. Проведенный сравнительный анализ позволяет прийти к выводу о несомненном преимуществе архивных текстов, так как они значительно точнее и полнее «Словаря». Хотя мысль, возможно, и не нова, но она всегда была априорной. Статья нацелена на продолжение обсуждаемой темы, поскольку она разрабатывается впервые в данной публикации.

The relevance of the article is due to the absence of the comparative analysis of the holdings of the Scientific Archive of the Chuvash State Institute of Humanities (SA ChSIH) and the 17-volume capital dictionary “The Dictionary of the Chuvash Language” by the correspondent member of the USSR Academy of Sciences N.I. Ashmarin. The “Dictionary” written and published in the first half of the 20th century is based upon the texts stored in the aforesaid archives and reflect the day-to-day life and vocabulary of the traditional Chuvash society in terms of history, archaeology, religion, ethnography, language, arts, and folklore. Undoubtedly the “Dictionary” is a jewel of the Chuvash people, it is more complete and valuable than all the dictionaries of the Chuvash language and is valued highly by linguists in Russia and worldwide. It is wise to subscribe to the opinion that the Chuvash people can be proud of such an excellent dictionary. All the examples provided by the author of the article are taken from original sources de visu. The comparative analysis performed makes it possible to make a conclusion on unquestionable advantage of archival texts because they are substantially more exact and complete compared with the “Dictionary”. The idea may not be new, but it has always been an a priori one. The article is meant to continue the discussed subject, since it is being developed for the first time in this work.

Authors: Чекмарев Георгий Евгеньевич , Фоминых Светлана Олеговна
Published: November 2021

Математический язык является основой таких дисциплин, преподаваемых в вузах, как математика и физика. Особое внимание следует обратить на подготовку будущих учителей математики и физики. Как показывает практика, в процессе подготовки студентов по обозначенным специальностям большинство трудностей связано именно с обеспечением надлежащих условий по усвоению учащимися языка предметной области. Настоящее исследование обращено к общетеоретическому и практическому раскрытию проблемы практического перевода задач на язык математической теории и, напротив, проведение обратного перевода. Статья также посвящена особенностям овладения технологиями прочного усвоения математического языка студентами, что должно стать залогом достижения конкретных практических результатов в будущей педагогической деятельности. Студент должен не только овладеть навыком решения математических и физических задач, но и уметь объяснять подробности их решения на математическом языке и раскрывать учащимся особенности построения математической задачи как на языке предметной лексики, так и при помощи стандартных формулировок, лексики и синтаксиса. В рамках исследования было проведено анкетирование, направленное на определение уровня владения математическим языком среди студентов первого и последнего курса, проходящих обучение по направлению подготовки «Педагогическое образование», с целью разработки системы упражнений, направленных на облегчение процесса усвоения математического языка.

The mathematical language is the basis of university mathematics and physics. Special attention is to paid when training future teachers of mathematics and physics. As practice shows, in the process of preparing students for the considered specialties, most difficulties are associated precisely with the provision of appropriate conditions for the assimilation of the language of the subject area by students. The present study is to consider theoretical and practical aspects of the problem of practical interpretation of problems into the language of mathematical theory and vice versa. The article is also devoted to the peculiarities of mastering solid assimilation of the mathematical language by students, which should be the key to achieving specific practical results in future pedagogical activities. Since the student must not only master the skill of solving mathematical and physical problems, but also be able to explain the details of the solution in mathematical language and reveal to pupils the peculiarities of making a mathematical problem, both in the language of subject vocabulary and using standard phrases, vocabulary and syntax. As part of the study, a questionnaire was conducted to determine the level of proficiency in the mathematical language among first and last year “Pedagogical Education” training program students in order to develop a system of exercises aimed at facilitating the process of mastering the mathematical language.
'It Makes No Difference What We Do'
Authors: Crowe Jonathan
Published: November 2021

Opposition to collective action on climate change takes at least two forms. Some people deny that climate change is occurring or that it is due to human activity. Others maintain that, even if climate change is occurring, we have no duty to do anything about it because our efforts would be futile. This article rebuts the latter line of argument. I argue that: (1) everyone has a duty to do their share for the global common good, which includes doing one’s part to combat climate change; (2) the idea that taking action against climate change is futile should be treated with caution, because sometimes actions may seem to make no difference to climate change, when really they do; (3) in any event, the duty to do one’s share to combat climate change still applies, even if it is ultimately futile; and (4) this is because not doing one’s share for the common good harms oneself, regardless of whether it makes any difference to the wider outcome.

Published: November 2021

The stability of cable-net structures depends on the prestress of the system. Due to the large displacement and mutual effect of the cables, it is difficult to simulate the tensioning process and control the forming accuracy. The Backward Algorithm (BA) has been used to simulate the tensioning process. The traditional BA involves complicated and tedious matrix operations. In this paper, a new numerical method based on the Vector Form Intrinsic Finite Element (VFIFE) method is proposed for BA application. Moreover, the tensioning sequence of a complex cable-net structure is introduced. Subsequently, a new approach for BA application in the simulation of the tensioning process is presented, which combines the VFIFE approach and the notion of form-finding. Finally, a numerical example is simulated in detail and the results of different tensioning stages are analyzed to verify the feasibility of the proposed approach. This study provides a significant reference for improving the construction control and forming accuracy of complex prestressed cable-net structures.

In each country, skills development in the 21st century plays a crucial role in education at all levels. One of these skills is computational thinking (CT), which is the ability to systematically think and solve problems in daily life. This research aims to ascertain the benefits of using a mobile cloud-based learning system with a peer-to-peer reverse engineering approach in enhancing CT skill. In this study, a cloud-based learning system and learning management plans were employed as research instruments, and a CT test was used as a data gathering instrument. The data were analyzed using the mean and standard deviation, repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA), and t-test. The findings suggested that the students’ scores were higher after using the cloud-based learning system, at a 0.05 level of significance. After performing the repeated-measures ANOVA, the students’ scores were significantly higher at a 0.05 level in each round of the CT test. At the same time, peer learning increased the positive attitude of the learners toward the system and promoted the effectiveness of working in a team. This study provides a better understanding of the current research trends in the field of CT education, the perception of students, and the learning strategies and technology involved in CT education.
Do Hedonic or Utilitarian Types of Online Product Reviews Make Reviews More Helpful?

Online sales can be influenced significantly by customer reviews, and thus there are several studies on what makes an online review helpful to consumers. However, none of those researches address the review helpfulness in the context of hedonic and utilitarian review types. This study examines how product type (hedonic and utilitarian) moderates the relationship between the level of review type (hedonicity and utilitarianity) and review helpfulness. To test the moderating effects, customer review data for perfume and bar soap product was collected from Amazon.com and analyzed by using a text-mining tool (QDA Miner) and a structural equation modeling software (AMOS 22.0). The results of this study indicate that the product type moderates the impact of the review type on review helpfulness when product type and review type are incongruent. Further, results show that the number of sentences in a customer review affects the review helpfulness when product type is utilitarian.

Most of the recent reduced graphene oxide (rGO) based sensors shows gas sensitivity above 50o to 150°C. The present investigation deals with the gas sensing at 50°C temperature. In the present research work, thick film sensors of rGO were developed on glass substrate by using standard screen-printing technique. The silver paste of rGO was used to make electrodes for contact on thick films for the electrical and gas sensing system. The electrical properties of rGO thick films such as resistivity, activation energy and temperature coefficient were studied. The resistivity of rGO thick films was found to be 84.84 Ω/m. The morphological, elemental and structural properties of rGO thick films were analyzed by SEM, EDS and XRD techniques respectively. The crystallite size of rGO thick films was found as 28.42 nm by using Scherer’s formula. The rGO thick films were prepared and exposed to Ethanol, NH3, NO2 and LPG gases to determine sensitivity and selectivity. The sensitivity of NO2 has been found to be maximum among other exposed gases. The maximum sensitivity of NO2 gas was 92.55 % at 50 °C found with fast response (~ 11 sec) and recovery (~ 19 sec) time.

Published: November 2021

Grinding aids to increase grinding efficiency in cement production are materials that can produce large amounts of high-quality cement in a short time by reducing surface energy by preventing particle agglomeration and improving fluidity. In the paper, a grinding aid using glycerol-waste antifreeze(GAP) is prepared and its effect on the grinding properties of clinker is investigated in contrast to that without the grinding aid. The results are as follows: The angle of repose of the cement powder added with GAP decreases as the grinding time increases (decreases by 3.8° when the grinding time is 60 minutes), indicating that it increases the flowability of the powder. On the contrary, the residual amount of 45µm sieve is also significantly reduced (4.6% decrease) and the specific surface area increases (30.5m2/kg), which results in an increase in the grinding efficiency. In the size range of 3 to 32µm, it increases the particle content, makes the particle size distribution uniform, the 7d and 28d activity index of the powder is improved by 5% and 6%, respectively, and increases the compressive strength of the cement. In addition, it is confirmed that the performance of the TEA grinding aid and the grinding aid are similar, and are very effective in terms of economy.
