Authors: Muhammad Tareh Aziz  , Lestari Widodo
Published: May 2024

The emergence of new Islamic educational institutions has created a new phenomenon in the world of education. That way, of course Madrasas are competing to create new programs that are different from other Madrasas. So quite a few people find it difficult to make choices so that their children can go to good schools and can develop their children's skills. The research method used is qualitative with data collection techniques: observation, interviews and documentation. One of the superior programs that is in great demand in the current era is Islamic boarding schools and tahfidzul Quran. Not a few Madrasas include a superior program in their school curriculum. With this superior program, it will certainly attract a lot of parents of students and even the students themselves to support and develop their skills. One of the schools that uses this superior program is Sabilur Rosyad Islamic Middle School. The curriculum model used at this school is the 2013 curriculum which is integrated with Islamic boarding schools with a full day school learning system. Not a few schools implement the full day school model, but of course this type of curriculum model is very much in demand by modern society, and is very in line with the output of the K13 curriculum, namely by prioritizing character but also not neglecting students' abilities and skills. The superior programs owned by Sabilur Rosyad Islamic Middle School are: Islamic boarding school, Tahsin Al-Quran and Tahfidh Al-Quran, as well as language programs.

Authors: Копина М.Б. , Уварова Д.А. , Шухин Д.И. , Горлова Л.М. , Чалая Н.А.
Published: May 2024

В статье рассматриваются фомоидные грибные возбудители, ассоциированные с вегетирующим картофелем в Московской и Ленинградской областях и выявленные в период 2019–2020 гг. Представлены биологические особенности пикнидиальных грибов, особенности проявления симптомов, описаны диагностически значимые культурально-морфологические признаки. В результате проведенных исследований на пораженных листьях картофеля из пикнидиальных грибов были идентифицированы представители родов Didymella, Neoascochyta, Phoma, Boeremia. В период вегетации доминирующее положение из непикнидиальных грибов в 80% исследуемых образцов, отобранных в Московской области, занимали виды рода Alternaria. Гриб Boeremia foveata (Foister) Aveskamp, Gruyter & Verkley был выделен в единичном случае при обследовании посадок картофеля в Пушкинском районе Санкт-Петербурга. В исследованных растениях также встречались виды, нехарактерные для картофеля: однократно из пораженных листьев были выделены виды Neoascochyta exitialis (Morini) Q. Chen & L. Cai и Didymella pinodella (L.K. Jones) Q. Chen & L. Cai. В результате проведенных исследований выделено и идентифицировано 10 видов фомоидных патогенных грибов. Полученные изоляты внесены в микологическую коллекцию ФГБУ «ВНИИКР» для изучения морфологических особенностей комплекса микромицетов картофеля, присутствие которых возможно совместно с карантинными вредными организмами.

В статье приведены данные, полученные в ходе испытаний синтетического феромонного препарата производства Всероссийского центра карантина растений (ФГБУ «ВНИИКР») для мониторинга и отлова карантинного вредного организма – коричнево-мраморного клопа Halyomorpha halys (Stål). Полевой скрининг коричнево-мраморного клопа проводили на территории двух государств, где вредитель не имеет регуляционного статуса: Республики Венгрии и Республики Абхазии. Для апробации феромонных ловушек применяли синтетическую смесь, разработанную по оптимизированному методу, который включает в себя синтез двух основных компонентов: стереоизомеров 10,11- эпокси-1-бисаболен-3-ола, где в качестве исходного реагента использовали рацемический цитронеллаль, и вещества-синергиста – метил-(E,E,Z)-2,4,6-декатриеноата. Смесь наносили на диспенсеры из бромбутилкаучука в соотношении 1 : 1 для каждого компонента, соответственно, в различных дозировках: 12, 24 и 48 мг/диспенсер. Как дополнительный вариант использовали диспенсер из целлюлозы в буфлене с 48 мг феромонного препарата. Результаты полевых испытаний показали высокую аттрактивность и видоспецифичность 24 мг феромонного препарата, наносимого на диспенсер из бромбутилкаучука, для нимф Halyomorpha halys. В то время как дозировка 48 мг, применяемая с таким же типом диспенсера, была более привлекательна для имаго. Таким образом, оптимизированный метод синтеза феромонного препарата продемонстрировал свою эффективность в отлове нимф и имаго коричнево-мраморного клопа в условиях как умеренно континентального, так и субтропического климата. Для уточнения наиболее эффективной дозировки синтетического феромонного препарата коричнево-мраморного клопа необходимо проведение дальнейших исследований.

This correspondence article aims to reiterate the main points of the journal article, as it revolves around the objective of elaborating on the problems and coping mechanisms of a private school during the COVID-19 pandemic. This correspondence article also tests the research's claims, structure, and overall content to refine its components and guide readers on how to assess and critique a journal article. Overall, although the research article entitled, “Survival of the Fittest: Resiliency of Private Schools Amidst the Challenges of the Pandemic” was technically written flawlessly and was justified well, it is at fault by using the wrong research design and for its misalignment with its title and objective.
Development and Validation of a Supplemental Learning Resource in Chemistry in Conversational Filipino
Authors: Altares Fernando
Published: May 2024

Insufficiencies in effective learning materials, poor English comprehension, and abrupt shift to alternative learning modalities are a few of the many possible root causes of low proficiency levels of students in science. To address such a problem, a supplemental learning resource in selected topics in Chemistry written in conversational Filipino was developed and validated for Senior High School non-science students. Two research designs were employed, namely, the Research and Development (R&D) design for the development and expert validation of the material, and a QuasiExperimental design for the end-user validation of the material. Since a modified validation tool was used, five science and education experts assessed the validation tool and rated it to be valid to a very great extent. Another set of five science and curriculum experts, using a reliability-tested modified validation tool, rated the learning material to be valid to a very great extent in terms of objectives, content, language use, instructional characteristics, acceptability, and usability. Non-randomly selected thirty-eight students from an intact class in a Senior High School in Tarlac City were split-halved into control and experimental groups and were administered the pre-test and post-test to establish the effectiveness of the learning material. Pre- and post-tests scores, along with their gain scores, were analyzed using a tTest. While results showed that there was still an increase in their performance regardless of the use of the supplemental material, it was also revealed that the administration of the supplemental material significantly increased students’ performance as compared to its non-supplementation. It is therefore recommended that the integration of local community language in learning materials should be considered as an effective way of contextualizing and deepening the understanding of students in science lessons.

Published: May 2024

The research delves into the preferences of tourists in Coron, Palawan, shedding light on their vacation destinations and the influential factors shaping their choices. The historical evolution of tourism traces its origins from the 17thcentury Grand Tour to the 19th-century establishment of travel agencies like Thomas Cook & Son. Notable global tourist attractions, such as Italy and France, underscore the enduring allure of rich history, architecture, and cultural experiences. Meanwhile, the narrative expands to Asia, citing the Tiger Nest Temple in Bhutan, Siem Reap in Cambodia, and Bokeo Nature Reserve in Laos as top destinations. Particularly in the Philippines, Coron, Palawan, one of the renowned destinations in the globe, acknowledges its popularity with Kayangan Lake, Barracuda Lake, and the Twin Lagoon recognized as key attractions. The diverse demographic of respondents, predominantly aged 25-34 and representing varying income groups, adds depth to the study. Internal factors strongly influencing travel decisions include rest, adventure-seeking, and cultural exploration. Externally, factors such as friendliness of people, personal safety, and destination image hold substantial influence. Twin Lagoon emerges as the preferred destination, while Beach 91 ranks lower, underscoring variability in popularity. Age significantly influences destination preferences, warranting further investigation, while income disparities highlight the need for targeted marketing strategies or improvements in less popular destinations. Additionally, ethnicity/nationality proves to be a significant factor in determining preferred vacation destinations, emphasizing the dependency on cultural backgrounds.

Authors: Arbuliente Airyn
Published: May 2024

Parental involvement in their children's education plays a vital role in the holistic development of the child’s potential. It is a paramount factor for student’s academic success. This study focused on the parental involvement of economically challenged students in the new normal. The primary purpose of the research study was to determine the level of homebased parental involvement, coping, challenges encountered, and coping mechanisms. Respondents are parents of bonafide students of Lapinigan National High School during the school year 2021-2022. The study utilized a mixed descriptive research method employing a quantitative-descriptive survey and qualitative thematic data analysis. The study employed frequency, weighted mean, percentage, and Spearman rank correlation coefficient to analyze quantitative data on the demographic profile, home-based involvement, and parents' coping mechanisms. The findings revealed that respondents are married mothers, high school graduates, primarily housekeepers, and have 3 to 4 children. Parents' home-based involvement falls into giving positive reinforcement to their children working independently in the light of remote learning. Findings revealed that gender, marital status, and number of children have no significant relationship to the level of home-based involvement. Educational attainment and occupation exhibited a significant relationship. Thematic analysis indicated that parents encountered struggles in the cultural aspect, including setting priorities, parental role, and limited knowledge. In addition, parents experienced inflation, unemployment, and inadequate resources in the economic aspect. Furthermore, results showed that parents hurdled challenges through religious coping, self-management, social support, and resourcefulness. The study recommended that school personnel and stakeholders utilize the proposed intervention program to acquaint parents with the diverse activities they can provide their children in remote learning. Furthermore, local government units actively implement economic and livelihood programs that would benefit parents belonging to the poor sector.

Antara Strategi dan Siasat Misi SVD Distrik Sumut
Authors: Lelaona Yohanes Antonius
Published: May 2024

Based on his personal experiences in North Sumatra, the writer offers in this article some insightful ideas in doing mission and being missionary crossculturally. First of all, every missionary should realise himself as guest in any mission field. What is important for a guest is just learning to know the local people and their cultural values. As a Divine Word Missionary, the writer underlines the legacy of St. Arnold Janssen, the founder of the Society of the Divine Word, namely interculturity. Internally, members of the Society are united from various ethnic groups, languages, and cultures into a fertile and dynamic community. Externally, everybody has been trained and conditioned to be able to adjust himself into any new cultural milieu. Involve in mission such as in North Sumatra, every new missionary is expected to open himself to the Batak culture. To be a good missionary among the Batak, then, one must know quite well the Batak cultural values and speak their language. There is no other strategy for being a good missionary, namely a good preacher, than to first of all be a good learner, a good disciple. That is what exactly means an intercultural person.
Sekali Pendatang Tetap “Pendatang”? Menyibak Sekat “Pribumi-Nonpribumi” di Indonesia
Authors: Virgenius Charles , Sinaga Henri Damian
Published: May 2024

Identification of a group of people does not come out of the blue. There is a long history and a lengthy process which makes a group identity comes up. In Indonesia, the ethnic Chinese, formerly called ‘orang-orang non-pribumi’ (nonnatives, immigrants), are one of many groups of people with their ambiguous identity. Such ambiguity of the ethnic Chinese remains so up to the present day, even though the term ‘Cina’ has been altered into ‘Tionghoa’’.Their presence has been considered as ‘the others’ amidst the people of the country and their identity as ‘immigrants’ has been perpetuated. Nobody knows when such stigma will be over. Although they have been in the country for generations, their status as ‘immigrants’ seems unchanged. The article tries to explore the background of the natives-immigrants stereotype and the discourse on ethnic Chinese identity in the post-Soeharto era.
Menciptakan Harmoni di Tengah Konteks Keragaman
Authors: Hidayat Elvin Atmaja
Published: May 2024

“Harmony” is a condition or situation that every human being is yearning or looking for around the world, as a person-and in the context as a nation. Because, the harmony in society becomes one of the guarantor of economic, social-cultural, and political stability in that society. Harmony also enables people to be develop fully and make them truly happy. However, these days, harmony becomes a “rare” item. Various crimes are increasing in various parts of the world and remove the harmony massively. Apparently, the main cause of these conflicts is the “diversity” of tribes, religions, etc. Emmanuel Levinas, a Jewish philosopher, offers an inspiration to restore the harmonization with his “philosophy of face”. Levinas invites people to look at their neighbours with new perspectives. Harmonization is created, not because of considering the “others” to be the same as ‘me’ (homogeneous), but because the “others” are really different from‘me’ (heterogeneous). For Levinas, the attitude of mutual respect and responsibility for each other is raised up by suchdifference or “absolute otherness”.

Perkawinan Tungku Cu dari Manggarai, Flores Dalam Perspektif Hukum Kanonik Gereja Katolik
Authors: Jegaut Siprianus
Published: May 2024

The focus of this study is to discuss the Tungku Cu Marriage, the custom in Manggarai, Flores, in connection to Canon Law of the Catholic Church. The writer argues that Manggarai, as a social community, has invaluable cultural wealth that has shaped their character. One of the riches ofthis local culture is Kawing Tungku Cu (Tungku Cu Marriage). The custom is actually one of various forms of marriage in the Manggaraian society. Kawing Tungku Cu, however, becomes a dilemma when the Church has to deal with it in the light of the canon law. The writer argues that the purpose of every marriage is to continue the offspring and creativity of God himself. This study aims at finding the legal policy of the local Church in dealing with the Kawing Tungku Cu through literature studies and interviews. Finally, the writer suggests that pastoral workers are expected to have certain skills with regard to local culture; to build partnership; and to be able to create a close relationship between anak Rona and anak Wina.

Definition of the city in the legal aspect of urban development
Authors: Veretennikova Kseniia Vadimovna
Published: May 2024

The article provides a general overview of the definition of a city in the legal aspect of urban development. The relevance of the study is due to the lack of a generally accepted legally fixed definition of a city at the federal level, the variety of interpretations of this concept at the regional level and the identified cases of inconsistency of administrative boundaries with real urban boundaries. This leads to the fact that the established categories of settlements are often a reflection of administrative management, rather than the real spatial structure; there is no clear understanding of the degree of real urbanization of Russia and the number of cities in it. The study examines cases of inconsistency between the administrative boundaries of cities and their actual spatial characteristics. The object of the study is the definition of the city, the subject of the study is the representation of the concept of the city in the legislation regulating urban development.The article analyzes the upper-level regulations, laws on the administrative and territorial structure of various subjects of the Russian Federation, and statistical data. Various approaches to the concept of a city in the legislation on the administrative-territorial structure of the subjects of the Russian Federation are identified and the signs of classifying a settlement as a city contained in them are considered. It is established that the definition of a city in the legal field is vague, its urban planning and spatial planning aspects are lost. The city ceases to be considered as a real physical space and is replaced by administrative-territorial and municipal categories. It is necessary to develop a unified conceptual framework and criteria fixed at the federal level for classifying settlements as urban, taking into account regional peculiarities. The development of a unified methodology for determining the criteria of urban structure based on spatial characteristics will help determine the number of cities in Russia and determine the real degree of urbanization of the country.

Published: May 2024

The nucleus incertus (NI), a conserved hindbrain structure implicated in the stress response, arousal, and memory, is a major site for production of the neuropeptide relaxin-3. On the basis of goosecoid homeobox 2 (gsc2) expression, we identified a neuronal cluster that lies adjacent to relaxin 3a (rln3a) neurons in the zebrafish analogue of the NI. To delineate the characteristics of the gsc2 and rln3a NI neurons, we used CRISPR/Cas9 targeted integration to drive gene expression specifically in each neuronal group, and found that they differ in their efferent and afferent connectivity, spontaneous activity, and functional properties. gsc2 and rln3a NI neurons have widely divergent projection patterns and innervate distinct subregions of the midbrain interpeduncular nucleus (IPN). Whereas gsc2 neurons are activated more robustly by electric shock, rln3a neurons exhibit spontaneous fluctuations in calcium signaling and regulate locomotor activity. Our findings define heterogeneous neurons in the NI and provide new tools to probe its diverse functions.
SMAD4 promotes somatic-germline contact during murine oocyte growth
Authors: Granados-Aparici Sofia , Yang Qin , Clarke Hugh J
Published: May 2024

Development of the mammalian oocyte requires physical contact with the surrounding granulosa cells of the follicle, which provide it with essential nutrients and regulatory signals. This contact is achieved through specialized filopodia, termed transzonal projections (TZPs), that extend from the granulosa cells to the oocyte surface. Transforming growth factor (TGFβ) family ligands produced by the oocyte increase the number of TZPs, but how they do so is unknown. Using an inducible Cre recombinase strategy together with expression of green fluorescent protein to verify Cre activity in individual cells, we examined the effect of depleting the canonical TGFβ mediator, SMAD4, in mouse granulosa cells. We observed a 20–50% decrease in the total number of TZPs in SMAD4-depleted granulosa cell-oocyte complexes, and a 50% decrease in the number of newly generated TZPs when the granulosa cells were reaggregated with wild-type oocytes. Three-dimensional image analysis revealed that TZPs of SMAD4-depleted cells were longer than controls and more frequently oriented towards the oocyte. Strikingly, the transmembrane proteins, N-cadherin and Notch2, were reduced by 50% in SMAD4-depleted cells. SMAD4 may thus modulate a network of cell adhesion proteins that stabilize the attachment of TZPs to the oocyte, thereby amplifying signalling between the two cell types.

Recurrent joint bleeding in hemophilia patients frequently causes hemophilic arthropathy (HA). Drastic degradation of cartilage is a major characteristic of HA, but its pathological mechanisms has not yet been clarified. In HA cartilages, we found server matrix degradation and increased expression of DNA methyltransferase proteins. We thus performed genome-wide DNA methylation analysis on human HA (N=5) and osteoarthritis (OA) (N=5) articular cartilages, and identified 1228 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) associated with HA. Functional enrichment analyses revealed the association between DMR genes (DMGs) and extracellular matrix (ECM) organization. Among these DMGs, Tenascin XB (TNXB) expression was down-regulated in human and mouse HA cartilages. The loss of Tnxb in F8-/- mouse cartilage provided a disease-promoting role in HA by augmenting cartilage degeneration and subchondral bone loss. Tnxb knockdown also promoted chondrocyte apoptosis and inhibited phosphorylation of AKT. Importantly, AKT agonist showed chondroprotective effects following Tnxb knockdown. Together, our findings indicate that exposure of cartilage to blood leads to alterations in DNA methylation, which is functionally related to ECM homeostasis, and further demonstrate a critical role of TNXB in HA cartilage degeneration by activating AKT signaling. These mechanistic insights allow development of potentially new strategies for HA cartilage protection.

Published: May 2024

In South Korea, deaths caused by poisoning are mostly suicides due to drug overdoses, or agrochemical poisonings. Even though the latter is becoming less frequent, they are still occurring in large numbers across the country. In some cases, deaths result from toxicity of organic solvents contained in the agrochemical products. In this study, we identified organic solvents in post-mortem blood of acute agrochemical poisoning cases using solid phase microextraction-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry with black fiber. Out of 42 cases, organic solvents were detected in 29, with toluene and butanol detected simultaneously in 13 cases. In these 13 cases, the original pesticides were of various types, including organophosphorus compounds, carbamate, nicotine, and oxadiazine. Xylene and ethyl benzene were simultaneously detected six times. In these six cases, the original pesticides were mainly pyrethroid-based pesticides, such as cypermethrin and deltamethrin. Methoxypropanol was detected in five cases in which the water-soluble pesticide glufosinate was detected. These organic solvents may cause acute poisoning and even death in some agrochemical poisoning cases.
Enhancing traditional Chinese medical named entity recognition with Dyn-Att Net: a dynamic attention approach
Authors: Hou Jingming , Saad Saidah , Omar Nazlia
Published: May 2024

Our study focuses on Traditional Chinese Medical (TCM) named entity recognition (NER), which involves identifying and extracting specific entity names from TCM record. This task has significant implications for doctors and researchers, as it enables the automated identification of relevant TCM terms, ultimately enhancing research efficiency and accuracy. However, the current Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers-Long Short Term Memory-Conditional Random Fields (BERT-LSTM-CRF) model for TCM NER is constrained by a traditional structure, limiting its capacity to fully harness the advantages provided by Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) and long short term memory (LSTM) models. Through comparative experiments, we also observed that the straightforward superimposition of models actually leads to a decrease in recognition results. To optimize the structure of the traditional BERT-BiLSTM-CRF model and obtain more effective text representations, we propose the Dyn-Att Net model, which introduces dynamic attention and a parallel structure. By integrating BERT and LSTM models with the dynamic attention mechanism, our model effectively captures semantic, contextual, and sequential relations within text sequences, resulting in high accuracy. To validate the effectiveness of our model, we compared it with nine other models in TCM dataset namely the publicly available PaddlePaddle dataset. Our Dyn-Att Net model, based on BERT, outperforms the other models, achieving an F1 score of 81.91%, accuracy of 92.06%, precision of 80.26%, and recall of 83.76%. Furthermore, its robust generalization capability is substantiated through validation on the APTNER, MSRA, and EduNER datasets. Overall, the Dyn-Att Net model not only enhances NER accuracy within the realm of traditional Chinese medicine, but also showcases considerable potential for cross-domain generalization. Moreover, the Dyn-Att Net model’s parallel architecture facilitates efficient computation, contributing to time-saving efforts in NER tasks.
