Description and validation of the ice sheet model Nix v1.0
Authors: Moreno-Parada Daniel , Robinson Alexander , Montoya Marisa , Alvarez-Solas Jorge
Published: December 2023

Abstract. We present a physical description of the ice-sheet model Nix, an open-source project intended for collaborative development. Nix is a 2D thermomechanical model written in C/C++ that simultaneously solves for the momentum balance equations, mass conservation and temperature evolution. Nix's velocity solver includes a hierarchy of Stokes approximations: Blatter-Pattyn, depth-integrated higher order, shallow-shelf and shallow-ice. The grounding-line position is explicitly solved by a moving coordinate system that avoids further interpolations. The model can be easily forced with any external boundary conditions, including those of stochastic nature. Nix has been verified for standard test problems. Here we show results for a number of benchmark tests from standard intercomparison projects and assess grounding-line migration with an overdeepened bed geometry. Lastly, we further exploit the thermomechanical coupling by designing a suite of experiments where the forcing is a physical variable, unlike previously idealised forcing scenarios where ice temperatures are implicitly fixed via an ice rate factor. Namely, we use atmospheric temperatures and oceanic temperature anomalies to assess model hysteresis behaviour with active thermodynamics. Our results show that hysteresis in an overdeepened bed geometry is similar for atmospheric and oceanic forcings. We find that not only the particular sub-shelf melting parametrisation determines the temperature anomaly at which the ice sheet retreats, but also the particular value of calibrated heat exchange velocities. Notably, the classical hysteresis loop is narrowed for both forcing scenarios (i.e., atmospheric and oceanic) if the ice sheet is thermomechanically active as a results of the internal feedback among ice temperature, stress balance and viscosity. In summary, Nix combines rapid computational capabilities with a Blatter-Pattyn stress balance fully coupled to a thermomechanical solver, not only validating against established benchmarks but also offering a powerful tool for advancing our insight on ice dynamics and grounding line stability.

The One2One Structured Oral Examination is a Valuable and Positively Rated Science Education Tool that Drives Academic Success.
Authors: Spicer Erin , Ramer Matthew
Published: December 2023

Structured oral examinations (SOEs) result in higher test scores than traditional written assessments, but there lacks reproducible quantitative evidence supporting knowledge acquisition and retention. A modified SOE—called the One2One—whereby students present prepared answers to an instructor was evaluated for effectiveness in large classes despite its resource-intensive nature. This study used a post-assessment survey (Efficacy Assessment Survey, EAS) to measure the effect of the One2One on knowledge acquisition and retention, as well as student perceptions of its usefulness and perceived value. The One2One helped students learn and retain content better than by didactic lecture alone as demonstrated by significantly higher scores on One2One content as compared to control content (p<0.05) on the EAS (t-test) and this knowledge was retained until the end of the semester as measured by regression analysis. A previously identified drawback of SOEs is student-reported anxiety, however students’ perception of the SOEs’ usefulness and value are understudied. Here, thematic analysis of student feedback identified the One2One as being useful, a driver of learning, and of high professional value, albeit stressful. Though more resource intensive than traditional assessment methods, the One2One is a positively rated, authentic evaluation tool that motivates student learning.

Published: December 2023

ABSTRACT
This study aims to analyze the figure of speech in the poem “I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud” by William Wordsworth. The study's design is descriptive qualitative with no changes in the variables. It described the result of the semiotic analysis of the poetry “I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud”. The research technique has been done by using the super reader theory of analysis by Michael Riffaterre which focuses on three concepts: displacing, distorting, and creating. The result of the analysis shows that William Wordsworth’s poem represents super reader theory. Displacing the meaning of semiotic Super Reader reveals figurative language such as metaphor, personification, simile, and synecdoche. The figurative language revealed by the displacing and distorted meaning shows how the reflection of solitudes is described and his view on the sound of crowded society in the romantic age. This creates meaning when he feels lonely, angry, and alienated from it. The figurative language of metaphor has more dominance in this poem that relates to distorting meaning that some phrases or clauses have ambiguity, contradiction, and nonsense.

Public services are an important task that cannot be ignored by local governments, because if the service component stagnates, it is almost certain that all sectors will be affected. Therefore, there needs to be good planning and even need to formulate service standards for the community in accordance with the authority given by the central government to regional governments. One of the service improvements that needs to be carried out by local governments is improving services in the education sector. This research was carried out at the Directorate General of Teachers and Education Personnel. In this research, it was carried out using qualitative descriptive research, namely describing the condition of the object to be studied. Descriptive research obtains a systematic, factual and accurate picture of the facts, characteristics and relationships between the phenomena being investigated. In this research, the object to be studied is the implementation of service quality in the field of education at the Directorate General of Teachers and Education Personnel. Data collection techniques in this research were observation, interviews and documentation. Human qualities in an agency are realized by the employees themselves in carrying out their daily tasks, such as loyalty to the agency, relationships with customers, cooperation with other employees, group work experience, cooperative relationships between work units, and commitment to realizing strategic decisions. By realizing good quality human resources in their daily tasks, agencies can have intangible assets that have influence. The Directorate General of Teachers and Education Personnel must maintain or further improve the quality of service provided by the Directorate General of Teachers and Education Personnel by establishing good relations between fellow employees, superiors and subordinates and vice versa.
THE COMPETITION BETWEEN PARTICIPATION AND CONVENTIONAL BANKS IN TURKEY: A QUANTITATIVE STUDY
Authors: SOLMAZ Ali Rıza , SOYLU Özgür Bayram
Published: December 2023

Participation banks, which carry out transactions based on an interest-free banking model, form fund pools through current and participation accounts. These funds are made available to the economic decision units that need financing or tend to save by using a profit share approach. The interest-free finance system, which is a risk-sharing model, has a significant function in minimizing possible instability. The essential motivation of this study is to measure the level of competition between participation banks and conventional banks in the presence of households. For this purpose, quantitative research was carried out with the participation of 1145 people in the NUTS-2 region of the Turkey Statistical Regional Units Classification, with an error margin of ± 2.90% and a 95% confidence interval . The results of the research indicate that the savings preferences of the households are in favor of traditional instruments, the search for an interest-free investment tool continues, the interest sensitivity of the households in terms of financial external dependency, and the brand awareness of participation banks is low. It has been determined that the low level of awareness of participation banks is a significant disadvantage in competition with conventional banks.

REGIONAL LABOUR PRODUCTIVITY GROWTH AND STRUCTURAL CHANGE IN TURKISH ECONOMY
Authors: NAS Şahin , MOALLA Maya
Published: December 2023

Structural change is labelled as the shift of resources from low productive sectors to those with high-value-added. The structural change process can stimulate the evolution of the economy by increasing productivity. This study examines structural change and the bases of labour productivity evolution in 26 regions of Turkey for 2010-2020 period. Therefore, the Shift-Share Analysis method was employed in the study. The TURKSTAT gross domestic product in chain-linked volume, index and percentage change (2009 = 100) and employment by kind of economic activity data were utilized. The consequences revealed that the within-sector effect is the primary basis of productivity evolution in 26 regions of Turkey. The structural change has a positive but minor bearing on total labour productivity evolution in almost all regions. The within-sector effect is more dominant in the agricultural sector, but the bearing of structural change is negative. Similarly, the within-sector effect is stronger in the regions' industrial sectors (except for TR71, TRA1, TRA2, TRB2). The bearing of structural change in the services sector was better than in other sectors. As a result, it has been observed that the labour force is not directed to high-value-added sectors, particularly in the agricultural and industrial sectors, but the situation is better in the services sector.

Gastronomik kimlik, turizm sürdürülebilirliğine ve yörenin imajına olumlu katkı sağlamaktadır. Bu çalışmada Ordu ili Çamaş ilçesinin yerel gastronomi kimliğini değerlendirmek amaçlanmıştır. Gastronomik kimlik alt unsurları ve mutfak kültürünü değerlendirmeye yönelik görüşme soruları oluşturulmuştur. Belirlenen amaç doğrultusunda Çamaş ilçesinde ikamet eden beş kişiyle görüşülmüştür. Maxqda programıyla yapılan betimsel analizler sonucunda; altı ana tema oluşturulmuştur. Araştırma bulguları incelendiğinde, gelenek ve göreneklerin birçoğunun aile yapısına uygun şeklide halen devam ettiği anlaşılmıştır. Diş buğdayı ritüelleri ile imece işlerine dair bazı uygulamaların ise azaldığı görülmüştür. Geçmiş dönem mutfak kültürüne dair birtakım bilgiler veren, araç ve gereçler tespit edilmiştir. Bazı ailelerin halâ eski sofra adabına uymaya çalıştıkları ama genel sofra kültürünün de değişmiş olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. İlçede Nevruz, hiç kutlanmazken, Hıdırellez şenlikleri ise Gürgentepe şenlikleri ile birleştirilerek kutlanmaktadır. Aşure gününde aşure pişirilmesi ve dağıtımı dışında özel bir ritüel olmadığı, kandillerde ev dışında camilerde mevlit okumaya katılım olduğu, Kurban Bayramı’nda eski gelenek göreneklerin devam ettirilmeye çalışıldığı, Ramazan Bayramı’nda bayramlaşmanın aile içinde yapıldığı sonrasında aile büyüklerine gidilerek bayramlaşıldığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Kurban Bayramı’nda ise kurbanla alakalı işler bitirildiğinde bayramlaşmanın yapıldığı, dini bayramlarda keşkek ve ev baklavası gibi özel yemeklerin yapıldığı görülmüştür. Öğünler incelendiğinde geçmişte olup, günümüzde olmayan nadir yiyeceklere rastlanmıştır. Tava ve ot yemekleri için kullanılan bazı otların kullanım alanlarının daraldığı ve otlara ulaşımda sıkıntı yaşandığı tespit edilmiştir. Kuru meyve ve şerbet kültürünün azaldığı, fakat ‘’keşkek ‘’ gibi bazı yöresel yemeklerin günümüzde dahi aslına uygun yapılageldiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
CAN THE DEVELOPMENT DIFFERENCES OF COUNTRIES BE EXPLAINED WITH A FREEDOM STRUCTURE?
Authors: KANGAL Nalan , EROĞLU İlhan
Published: December 2023

This study aims to test the relationship between the liberal structure of countries and the development of countries. GDP per capita and price stability were used as performance measures for this. For this purpose, two separate models were constructed for developed and developing countries. Model I analyses the effect of economic freedoms on GDP per capita and Model II analyses the impact of economic releases on the consumer price index. According to the analysis using panel data analysis for developed and developing country groups, the findings reveal that a libertarian structure positively affects economic growth and is a discriminator in the emergence of development differences in countries. In contrast, a libertarian design does not have a significant relationship with price stability. These findings provide evidence in support of the Monetarist view that inflation is always a monetary phenomenon. According to the results of this study, it is recommended that especially developing countries should implement prudent policies towards price stability in monetary and fiscal policy.
Digital Sovereignty of Older Citizens for a Self-Determined Use of Personal Health Records: E-Learning Design and Study Results from the EPA-Coach Project

Published: December 2023

Promoting digital literacy and digital sovereignty has become one of the key policies in Europe. Digital sovereignty has been defined as the ability to act and exercise freedom of choice in the digital world. While digital services and applications offer great opportunities for the older generations to live independently and communicate with family and friends, the digital sovereignty of citizens including older adults has become a concern of policy-makers. Hence fostering digital sovereignty has been seen as an important objective for a self-determined use of digital media including control over own data. This paper presents an approach to designing an e-learning application for senior learners, which is aimed at fostering the digital sovereignty of older citizens in using Personal Health Records (PHR) in Germany. This e-learning application, called ePA-Coach, is designed in a research project funded by the Federal German Ministry of Education and Research to offer an opportunity for citizens 65+ to acquire digital skills needed for the self-determined use of PHR. The paper presents the digital literacy framework for exercising digital sovereignty related to PHR, which was developed in the ePA-Coach project based on the European Digital Competence Framework. We describe how this framework was applied in the design of micro-learning units and combined with gamification techniques from the Octalysis framework. Finally, we outline results from two exploratory studies with older citizens which revealed strong preferences for design elements related to digital sovereignty such as choice and control of the learning progress.
Using Short Questionnaires to Support Students' Emotion Awareness and Regulation During an Online Group Project
Authors: Hilliard Jake , Donelan Helen , Heaney Caroline , Kear Karen , Wong Patrick
Published: December 2023

Over the past two decades, research has highlighted the profound influence emotions can have on students’ learning, achievement, and wellbeing. Being able to successfully regulate one’s emotions is now viewed as crucial when learning in educational settings. To support students with this process, a growing line of research has explored various ways of helping students understand and manage their emotions (e.g., via the use of digital tools aimed at helping students become more aware of their emotions and prompting ways to regulate these emotions). Despite this, limited research has been undertaken in online group learning settings, where students work remotely together as part of their course using collaborative communication tools. These learning contexts present unique challenges which can make emotion regulation more difficult than in face-to-face learning environments (e.g., delayed response times when communicating with peers and teachers and a reduced sense of how others are feeling, due to limited emotional cues when learning online). In this paper, we describe an approach used at the UK Open University (UKOU) to assist students’ emotion awareness and regulation during a 9-week group project. This involves the use of short questionnaires which have been embedded into the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) of a module. Since their inclusion, these questionnaires have been found to enhance emotional awareness in many students, as well as support the regulation of emotions in the group project. To conclude this paper, reflections on using the short questionnaires are discussed and implications for educators and institutions are identified.

The Global OER (Open Educational Resources) Graduate Network (GO-GN) was founded in 2013 to support and connect doctoral researchers on OER worldwide and to promote open education research and its potential impact on society. In its ten-year history GO-GN has brought together doctoral students, experts, and educators from all five continents. GO-GN organises face-to-face events, online webinars and other activities that promote support and collaboration among its members. The pandemic impacted on GO-GN members and the network; this research shows how the network moved from a community of practice to a community of care.
Yes We Can (But Maybe Not Yet): The Impact of Data Poverty on Realising the Potential of Learning Analytics
Authors: Prinsloo Paul , Slade Sharon , Khalil Mohammad
Published: December 2023

Learning analytics (LA), as research and practice, has been committed to contributing to understanding students’ learning and the contexts in which their learning occurs since its emergence in 2011. Core to learning analytics is the measurement, collection, analysis and use of student data. As higher education becomes increasingly digitised and datafied, institutions have access to not only more data, but also a variety, velocity and granularity of data. However, there is also increasing evidence of data poverty - referring not only to students’ unable to afford data, but also institutions without, inter alia, the data infrastructure and analytical skills to realise the potential of LA. In both cases, the fiduciary duty of higher education institutions to provide enabling and supportive learning environments are severely compromised. In this conceptual paper, we provide an introduction to the notion of data poverty as it relates to both students and institutions before mapping key dimensions of student data poverty and their implications for LA. We also discuss institutional data poverty before concluding with a number of pointers to move from ‘not yet’ to ‘yes we can’ in providing evidence-led teaching and student support.
Digital Teacher Education for a Better Future: Recommendations for Teacher Preparation for an Online Environment
Authors: Barbour Michael , Hodges Charles
Published: December 2023

In light of current or future pandemics, natural disasters, war, or personal preferences, remote or online learning is becoming increasingly common.  This reality means that teachers need to be equipped with the skills necessary to effectively teach online. In this paper the authors highlight the importance of preparing teachers with effective online teaching skills and knowledge, and suggest two areas for improvement: (1) research support for scholars to build a knowledge base to better understand effective online teaching, and (2) changes to teacher preparation programs to better equip teachers for this changing reality. Before presenting these recommendations, a brief discussion of the state of K-12 online learning globally, as well as the limitations of existing teacher education, prior to the COVID-19 pandemic is provided.
Exploring the Use of Immersive Technologies to Enhance the Student Experience

Published: December 2023

This paper reports on the initial phase of a National Forum funded Learning Enhancement Project (LEP), under the Strategic Alignment of Teaching and Learning Enhancement (SATLE) funding stream. The purpose of the LEP is to explore the use of immersive technologies such as Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality and 360o Learning in three key domain areas within one higher education institution in Ireland. While significant research has been conducted into the use of these technologies in training and business contexts, the application and use in higher education is still scarce. Radianti et al. (2020) suggest that while the use of virtual reality in higher education is promising, it is still quite experimental and focuses more on performance and usability than learning-oriented applications. Augmented Reality has been used in areas such as teacher education (Sáez-López, 2020) and EFL (Arkhipova, 2022) but is also largely experimental. Together with Mixed Reality and 360-degree Learning, these technologies have the potential to offer students a more immersive learning experience. Three domain areas are involved in this project: Online Learning; the university library; and the academic discipline of Business Tourism. It is envisaged that based on their expertise and experience team members will trial at least two of the immersive technologies with their students during the academic year 2023-2024. Engaging the students in the research will foster a partnership approach and provide an understanding of how this new approach to learning benefits the students but will also reveal the challenges associated with introducing new technologies.

Threats and Safeguarding Measures Related to the Activity of Accounting Professionals
Authors: Zaharco Silvia
Published: December 2023

Integrity, objectivity, the acquisition of specialized competence and professional behaviour are some of the fundamental elements of the professional ethics principles that must be considered by a future professional accountant. At the same time, he or she should encounter the challenges that are specific for this activity. These can be self-interest, self-review, representation, familiarity, intimidation, etc., which must be identified and handled with great care by a professional accountant, so as to ensure the credibility of the chosen profession. The aim of the research is to highlight the types of threats that can affect the work of accounting professionals, as well as the protective measures that could eliminate or reduce them to an acceptable level. In order to achieve the goal set, the author used the research, qualitative methods, in particular, observation, analysis and documentation.
Diseño y estudios de género: experiencia de una asignatura masiva en la Universidad de Buenos Aires
Authors: Flesler Griselda , Durán Valeria , Moretti Celeste
Published: December 2023

Las demandas en torno a las políticas de género en la universidad pueden ser problematizadas a partir de tres dimensiones relativas a los saberes, la sociabilidad entre distintos actores institucionales y las transformaciones en los espacios. Desde esta perspectiva, este artículo propone hacer foco en una experiencia transitada en los últimos años en  la Universidad de Buenos Aires: la creación en el año 2017 de la asignatura Diseño y Estudios de Género en la Facultad de Arquitectura, Diseño y Urbanismo.Partiendo de la premisa de que la perspectiva feminista no es solo un contenido a impartir sino también —y quizá fundamentalmente— una práctica, la asignatura no escinde forma de contenido. Así, la pedagogía de la asignatura toma tres pilares fundamentales: la apertura, la transdisciplinariedad y los cuidados.  Las acciones y colaboraciones descritas en este escrito dan cuentade los desafíos, tensiones y resistencias que conlleva; en este caso, la enseñanza feminista en el campo del diseño pudo ser posible a partir de la consolidación de lazos y compromisos de diferentes actores de la vida universitaria (autoridades, docentes, estudiantes y no docentes).
