The teacher’s sense of plausibility revisited
Authors: Maley Alan
Published: October 2020

My aim is to give substance to Prabhu’s (1987) concept of ‘the teacher’s sense of plausibility’. That is to say, explore the way teachers develop professionally and personally by building a personal theory of teaching action based upon their own accumulated experiences - and reflection on them. Objective history is useful but perhaps more interesting are our personal histories. In this paper I shall attempt to link my own personal history in ELT to the places I have worked in, to the personalities I have encountered, to the evolving currents of ideas and publications, and to key critical moments in my own development. I shall weave together the five strands of places, personalities, ideas, publications and critical moments to demonstrate how they have influenced the direction of my own continuing development of a personal ‘theory’ of teaching. I shall suggest that this kind of reflective process can be a valuable element within the framework of teacher development as a whole.
Language use in shifting contexts: Two multilingual Filipinos’ narratives of language and mobility
Authors: Wattimena Rebecca Urip , Manara Christine
Published: October 2020

This study explores languages repertoire of two Filipinos who were brought up in a multilingual family and subsequently left their home country to live abroad. Both participants were exposed to more than 4 languages at their home country before they went to live abroad. The study was guided by three research questions: 1) how do these multilinguals use their languages? 2) what kind of linguistic dynamics the participants encountered during their mobility experiences? 3) how do the participants perceive themselves in relation to their linguistic and cultural identity? Narrative-based study was adopted to conduct this research. Data were elicited using open-ended interviews. The major findings show that although participants are still attached with their local languages, shifting of dominant language occurs in line with their mobility experiences. In addition, there is also an indication of language shift that takes place on the fourth generation. The 1st generation languages (participants’ grandparents, i.e. Ibanag and Karay-A) are no longer spoken and Tagalog is not inherited to the 4th generation of one of the participants.

Authors: Basile Luigi , Brunasso Lara , Gerardi Rosa Maria , Maugeri Rosario , Iacopino Domenico Gerardo , Gulì Carlo , Pino Maria Angela , Tumbiolo Silvana , Nicoletti Giovanni Federico , Graziano Francesca
Published: October 2020

Background:

Because the neurological presentation of spinal epidural hematomas (SEH) is often not specific, they may be misdiagnosed as acute lumbar disk herniations. Here, we present a case in which a traumatic disc extrusion mimicked an epidural hematoma and reviewed the appropriate literature.

Case Description:

A 27-year-old male sustained a high-energy fall. The lumbar MRI scan showed a L4-S1 ventral medium/high signal intensity mass on the T1- and high signal intensity lesion on T2-weighted images; the original diagnosis was spinal epidural hematoma. However, at surgery, consisting of a left L4 and L5 hemilaminectomy with L4-L5 and L5-S1 laminotomy, an extruded lumbar disc was encountered at the L4-L5 level and removed; no additional pathology or SEH was found at either level.

Conclusion:

On MR, SEH may mimic acute lumbar disk herniations. Depending on the clinical symptoms/signs, surgical intervention will both correctly confirm the diagnosis and relieve neural compression.

Published: October 2020

Background:

Various hematological malignancies, including multiple myeloma, plasmacytoma, aggressive lymphoma, and indolent lymphoma, rarely result in spinal cord compression.

Methods:

Here, we retrospectively analyzed 32 patients with multiple myeloma (50%), plasmacytoma (13%), aggressive lymphoma (28%), and indolent lymphoma (9%), resulting in spinal cord compression (2004 and 2016). Patients averaged 57 years of age and presented with the indolent onset of spinal cord compression (91% of cases) resulting mostly in motor deficits (69%).

Results:

Local treatment modalities included radiotherapy (RT) (28%) alone, decompressive surgery (28%) alone, or decompressive surgery with consolidation RT (40%). The 1-year overall survival was 70%, and the progression-free survival frequency was 62%.

Conclusion:

This study highlighted the importance of standardizing the indications for RT alone versus RT with surgery depending on the patient’s underlying pathological diagnosis, neurological deficits, and radiological findings.

Authors: Sari Marchelia Gupita , Asharhani Imaniar Sofia
Published: October 2020

Regionalisme dalam arsitektur kerap dibahas sebagai respon terhadap arsitektur modern yang bersifat univalen dan melunturkan nilai-nilai kesetempatan. Estetika galeri seni dengan pendekatan white cube yang berakar pada modernisme telah mengglobal atau melanda dunia, seperti halnya international style dalam arsitektur. Yogyakarta kini tengah menghadapi isu lokalitas dalam arsitektur yang dapat mencerminkan identitasnya sebagai kota seni dan budaya. Galeri seni memiliki peranan penting untuk menyebarkan kesenian kontemporer yang dinamis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi penerapan pendekatan white cube pada arsitektur galeri seni dan penerapan regionalisme kritis sebagai respon terhadap modernitas. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian deskriptif kualitatif. Analisis data dilakukan dengan komparasi antarkasus berdasarkan indikator dari regionalisme kritis dalam arsitektur. Penarikan kesimpulan berdasarkan kecenderungan penerapan white cube dengan indikator regionalisme pada kasus. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pendekatan regionalisme ditemukan pada kasus yang menekankan tektonika, respon terhadap iklim, dan respon terhadap konteks sekitar. Karya seni di galeri seni Yogyakarta ternyata tidak serta merta dibebaskan dari konteks sekitar seperti halnya konsep white cube gallery.IDENTIFICATION OF  WHITE CUBE APPROACH AND REGIONALISM IN ART GALLERY ARCHITECTURE IN YOGYAKARTA Regionalism in architecture is often discussed as a response to modern architecture, which contains a univalent value and attenuates the values of context. The aesthetics of art galleries with the concept of white cube rooted in modernism have become trend in the world and international style in architecture. Yogyakarta is currently facing locality in architecture that can reflect its identity as a city of arts and culture. Art galleries have an essential role in spreading dynamic contemporary art. This study aims to identify the white cube approach to art gallery architecture and critical regionalism to respond to modernity. This research uses descriptive qualitative research methods. Data analysis was conducted by comparisons between cases based on indicators of crucial regionalism in architecture. The conclusion is based on the tendency of applying white cube with indicators of regionalism in cases. The results showed that the regionalism approach was found in cases that emphasized tectonic aspects, responses to climate, and responses to the surrounding context. Artwork in the Yogyakarta art gallery is not necessarily freed from the surrounding context, such as the concept of the white cube gallery.

Masjid kerajaan di Surakarta yaitu Masjid Agung dan Masjid Al Wustho memiliki karakter kawasan yang berbeda. Kawasan Masjid Agung merupakan kawasan fungsi perdagangan yang ramai, sementara kawasan Masjid Al Wustho adalah kawasan fungsi pendidikan yang cenderung lebih tenang. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui karakteristik lingkungan sonik di kedua masjid, apakah fungsi kawasan berpengaruh terhadap lingkungan sonik yang terbentuk sesuai dengan karakter aktifitasnya. Penelitian dilakukan dengan pendekatan objektif melalui perekaman kondisi eksisting lingkungan sonik menggunakan H6Zoom dan analisis simulasi melalui program Audacity dan Surfer Mapping. Pendekatan subjektif dengan pengamatan aktivitas dan perilaku on-site survey serta wawancara. Hasil penelitian mengindikasikan karakter lingkungan sonik berbeda antara kedua masjid. Tingkat tekanan bunyi atau SPL rata-rata Masjid Agung adalah 60.8 dB, lebih rendah dari Masjid Al Wustho yang memiliki nilai SPL 63.8 dB. Fungsi kawasan tidak berpengaruh terhadap nilai SPL, melainkan komponen lanskap yang memiliki pengaruh. Penelitian ini dapat memberikan kontribusi terhadap perencanaan kawasan atau public space dengan pengurangan kebisingan lingkungan melalui pemilihan jenis material lanskap seperti pasir laut pantai selatan, vegetasi dan air serta perencanaan jalur sirkulasi yang terarah.SONIC ENVIRONMENTAL CHARACTERISTICS IN THE ROYAL MOSQUE IN SURAKARTA The royal mosque in Surakarta, namely the Grand Mosque and the Al Wustho Mosque, has a distinctly urban character.

MEMAHAMI URBAN SPRAWL: ANALISA PERKEMBANGAN PERMUKIMAN KOTA SALATIGA DENGAN DIGITASI ARCGIS
Authors: Khasanah Ma'rifatun , Widi Astuti Dyah
Published: October 2020

Pembangunan infrastruktur di Salatiga semakin meningkat, tidak hanya untuk keperluan aksesibilitas tapi juga karena semakin bertambahnya jumlah penduduk kota, baik penduduk asli maupun pendatang. Pembangunan tersebut juga dilakukan untuk memeratakan kegiatan ekonomi agar tidak tersentral di pusat kota. Contohnya adalah dibangunnya Jalan Lingkar Selatan (JLS) Salatiga yang memberikan dampak ekonomi, sosial, dan aksesibilitas terhadap perkembangan di daerah selatan kota karena melewati tiga kecamatan. Untuk mencegah perkembangan tidak terkendali yang akan timbul maka diperlukanlah kontrol perencanaan pembangunan di kawasan pinggiran tersebut. Penelitian ini mengambil satu contoh perumahan di setiap kecamatan yang berada di perbatasan Salatiga, yaitu Kecamatan Sidorejo (P1), Kecamatan Sidomukti (P2), Kecamatan Argomulyo (P3), dan Kecamatan Tingkir (P4). Metode yang digunakan adalah digitasi menggunakan software ArcGIS, sebagai alat bantu untuk memetakan kawasan perumahan sehingga bisa terlihat titik mana yang mengalami perkembangan paling pesat yang berpotensi menyebabkan terjadinya urban sprawl. Dari hasil digitasi tersebut terlihat titik yang mengalami perkembangan paling pesat adalah P3, dengan faktor preferensi bermukim paling banyak dikarenakan perumahan memiliki harga murah. Hal ini memungkinkan terjadinya urban sprawl di masa datang dengan berkembangnya infrastruktur yang semakin baik, dekat dengan fasilitas pelayanan umum seperti sekolah, kesehatan, keamanan, hiburan dan kemudahan aksesibilitas berupa jalur angkutan umum di titik tersebut.UNDERSTANDING THE URBAN SPRAWL: ANALYSIS RESIDENTAL DEVELOPMENT IN SALATIGA CITY WITH ARCGIS Infrastructure development at Salatiga is increasing, not only for needing accessibility but also for the growing urban population, both the natives and settlers. Such development is also being used to flatten economic activities not centralized in the urban core. An example is the development of Jalan Lingkar Selatan (JLS) Salatiga that has impact in economy, social, and accessibility for growth in the southern city of the city through three subdistricts. To prevent these uncontrolled developments requires control in building planning in the suburban. The study takes one sample housing in every district located on the Salatiga suburban, and those are Sidorejo district (P1), Sidomukti district (P2), Argomulyo district (P3), and Tingkir district (P4). The method used is digitized using ArcGIS software to map the region, so it can see which point is experiencing the most rapid growth that potentially causes urban sprawl. From that digitization, the most developed node is P3, with the most preference factor of settling because housing is cheap. It allows urban sprawl in the future with better infrastructure increase, near a public service facility like school, health, security, entertainment, and easiness accessibility such as public transport routes in this node.

Published: October 2020

The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 highlights the global need for platform technologies to enable rapid development of diagnostics, vaccines, treatments, and personal protective equipment (PPE). However, many current technologies require the detailed mechanistic knowledge of specific material-virion interactions before they can be employed, for example to aid in the purification of vaccine components, or in design of more effective PPE. Here we show that an adaption of polymer micro array method for screening bacterial-surface interactions allows for screening of polymers for desirable material-viron interactions. Non-pathogenic virus like particlesincluding fluorophores are exposed to the arrays in aqueous buffer as a simple model of virons carried to the surface in saliva/sputum. Competitive binding of Lassa and Rubella particles is measured to probe the relative binding properties of a selection of copolymers. This provides the first step in the development of a method for discovery of novel materials with promise for viral binding, with the next being development of this method to assess absolute viral adsorption and assessment of the attenuation of the activity of live virus which we propose would be part of a material scale up step carried out in biological laboratory safety level 4 facilities and the use of more complex media to represent biological fluids.
Polarization-resolved single-molecule tracking reveals strange dynamics of individual fluorescent tracers through a plasticized (rubbery) polymer network
Authors: Mahato Jaladhar , Bhattacharya Sukanya , Sharma Dharmendar K. , Chowdhury Arindam
Published: October 2020

Tracking the movement of fluorescent single-molecule (SM) tracers has provided several new insights on the local structure and dynamics in complex environments such as soft materials and biological systems. However, SM tracking (SMT) remains unreliable at molecular length scales, as the localization-error (LE) of SM trajectories (~30-50 nm) is considerably larger than size of molecular tracers (~1-3 nm). Thus, instances of tracer (im)mobility in heterogeneous media, which provide indicator for underlying anomalous-transport mechanisms, remains obscured within the realms of SMT. Since translation of passive tracers in an isotropic network is associated with fast dipolar rotation, we propose authentic pauses within LE can be revealed upon probing SM reorientational dynamics. Here, we demonstrate how polarization-resolved SMT (PR-SMT) can provide emission-anisotropy at each super-localized position, thereby revealing tumbling propensity of SMs during random walk. For Rhodamine 6G tracers undergoing heterogeneous transport in a hydrated polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) network, analyses of PR-SMT trajectories enabled us to discern instances of genuine immobility and localized motion within the LE. Our investigations on 100 SMs in hydrated (plasticized) PVP films reveal a wide distribution of dwell-times and pause-frequencies, which demonstrate that majority of probes intermittently experience complete translational and rotational immobilization. This indicates tracers serendipitously encounter compact, rigid polymer cavities during transport, implying the existence of nanoscale glass-like domains sparsely distributed in a redominantly deep-rubbery polymer network far above the glass transition. PR-SMT is simple to implement and opens up alternate avenues to interrogate transient (bio)molecular interactions leading to anomalous transport in inhomogeneous media.
Binding of Inhibitors to the Monomeric and Dimeric SARS-CoV-2 Mpro

Published: October 2020

SARS-CoV-2 rapidly infects millions of people worldwide since December 2019. There is still no effective treatment for the virus, resulting in the death of more than one million of patients. Inhibiting the activity of SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro), 3C-like protease (3CLP), is able to block the viral replication and proliferation. Although the dimer was shown to be the biologically active form of the SARS-CoV-2 Mpro, in this context, our study has revealed that in silico screening for inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro can be reliably done using the monomeric structure of the receptor. Docking and fast pulling of ligand (FPL) simulations for both monomeric and dimeric forms correlate well with the corresponding experimental binding affinity data of 30 compounds. In particular, the correlation coefficients between computational and experimental binding free energy of the monomeric SARS-CoV-2 Mpro are approximately similar to the dimeric target. Moreover, the correlation coefficient between the rupture forces to binding free energy are roughly the same. Furthermore, the correlation coefficient between calculated metrics of the monomeric and dimeric SARS-CoV-2 Mpro is R = 0.74. Our study results show that it is possible to speed up computer-aided drug design for SARS-CoV-2 Mpro by focusing on the monomeric form instead of the larger dimeric one.
First-principles-informed energetic span and microkinetic analysis of ethanol catalytic conversion to 1,3-butadiene on MgO

Published: October 2020

Kinetic modeling of single-step catalytic conversion of ethanol to 1,3-butadiene is necessary to inform accurate process design. This paper considers the synthesis of 1,3-butadiene on an MgO (100) step-edge using first-principles-informed energetic span and microkinetic analysis to explore the reaction free energy landscapes and kinetic limitations of competing reaction pathways. Previous studies have observed mechanisms proceeding via both dehydrogenation and dehydration of ethanol, and highlighted sensitivity to conditions and catalyst composition. Here, we use the energetic span concept to characterize the theoretical maximum turnover and degree of rate control for states in each reaction pathway, finding dehydrogenation to be more active than dehydration for producing 1,3-butadiene, and suggesting states in the dehydrogenation, dehydration, and condensation steps to be rate-determining. The influence of temperature on the relative rate contribution of each state is quantified and explained through the varying temperature sensitivity of the free energy landscape. A microkinetic model is developed to explore the impact of competition between pathways, interaction with gas-phase species, and high surface coverage of stable reaction intermediates. This suggests that the turnover obtained may be significantly lower than predicted from the free energy landscape alone. The theoretical rate-determining states were found to contribute to high surface coverage of adsorbed ethanol and longer, oxygenated hydrocarbons. The combined energetic span and microkinetic analysis permits investigation of a complex system from two perspectives, each with inherent advantages, and helps elucidate conflicting observations of rate determining steps and product distribution by considering the interplay between the different pathways and the equilibrium with gas-phase products.
Deconvolution of Intermixed Redox Processes in Ni-based Cation-Disordered Li-Excess Cathodes

Published: October 2020

Cation-disordered rock-salt transition-metal oxides or oxyfluorides (DRX) have emerged as promising cathode materials for Li-ion batteries due to their potential to reach high energy densities and accommodate diverse, lower cost transition-metal chemistries compared to conventional layered oxide materials. However, the intricate local coordination environment in DRX also results in complex electrochemical electron transfer involving parallel mechanisms of transition-metal (TM) redox and oxygen (anionic) redox. Without decoupled and quantitative information of these intermixed redox processes, the origin of irreversibility, voltage hysteresis, and capacity fading is obscured, which impedes the development of strategies to address these issues. Here we deconvolute the mixed redox processes in a Ni-based DRX, Li1.15Ni0.45Ti0.3Mo0.1O1.85F0.15, by combining 18O isotopic enrichment, differential electrochemical mass spectrometry (DEMS), and ex-situ acid titration. The summation of TM-redox and oxygen-redox capacities measured through our approach agrees with the net electron transfer measured by the potentiostat. This study reveals much less Ni oxidation efficiency (59.5%) than its initially designed efficiency (100%) due to competition of oxygen redox, which can occur at potentials as low as 4.1 V (vs. Li/Li+). We propose that the chemical approach presented in this work and its future extension can resolve and quantify various mixed redox processes in different DRX, which allows clear correlations among material design, deconvoluted redox capacities, and battery performance.
A CO2-Catalyzed Transamidation Reaction
Authors: Yang Yang , Liu Jian , LEE JIWOONG
Published: October 2020

Amide bond formation reactions are often mediated by reactive substrates in the presence of over-stoichiometric activating reagents and/or catalysts. Here we report a CO2-promoted transamidation reaction without additive metal catalysts or coupling reagents. The reaction forms byproducts, ammonia, primary and secondary amines, which can form adducts with CO2, thereby shifting the equilibrium in the desired direction. A comparison of Hammett studies under CO2 and N2 atmospheres suggests that the reaction transition state can be stabilized by electrophilic CO2. Selective modification of peptides was demonstrated, showing that CO2 can be utilized to control the nature of the electrophilicity and nucleophilicity of reaction partners under practical reaction conditions.

Abstract: This three-authored paper describes our individual responses to a video, Dwelling, by Japanese artist Hiraki Sawa.  The nine-minute video is a wordless, but not soundless, presentation of jet planes flying within the confines of the artist’s apartment. We chose the Youtube video in order to be able to share an artwork although we were working in three different cities at the time.  Our responses consist of our individual poetic and visual (photographs, collage, paintings) interpretations of the video in conjunction with theory.  We use phenomenology  as our theoretical framework and underlying philosophy, and connect it with arts based research. Keywords: Art Education; Poetry; Visual Art; Phenomenology.Résumé : Trois auteurs relatent dans cet article leurs réactions personnelles au visionnement de la vidéo Dwelling de l’artiste japonais Hiraki Sawa. Cette vidéo de neuf minutes, sans paroles mais avec son, montre des avions à réaction volant à l’intérieur de l’appartement de l’artiste. Bien que travaillant dans trois villes différentes à ce moment là, nous avons choisi la diffusion sur Youtube pour partager cette œuvre d’art. Nos réactions sont en fait nos interprétations personnelles poétiques et visuelles (photos, collage, peintures) de cette vidéo accompagnées de points théoriques. Notre cadre théorique et notre philosophie sous-jacente s’inspirent de la phénoménologie pour établir un lien avec la recherche artistique. Mots-clés : éducation artistique, poésie, art visuel, phénoménologie.

Published: October 2020

Dental caries is a well-known factor leading to various dental complications, affecting both the health and quality of life. Type of pit and fissures such as "V" and "K" are more susceptible to dental caries where mechanical cleaning becomes a challenge. This study is conducted to evaluate the association of gender with deep pit and fissure among the Index age group 35-44 years old. A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted using the patient records of the University hospital. A total of 103 consecutive case records of patients who underwent pit and fissure sealant were retrieved and analysed. Descriptive statistics were done to find the prevalence and association of gender and deep pit and fissures among the index age group. The number of teeth with bottomless pit and fissures was higher in males (52.43%) than in females (47.57%). Also, individuals of age group 35-40 years had a larger number of teeth with deep pit and fissures (74.75%) than the age group 41-45 years. No significant association was found between gender and the number of deep pits and fissures (p>0.05). The proportion of deep pit and fissures was high in males compared to females.

Pre-prosthetic surgery is part of the oral and maxillofacial surgery, which concerns restoration of facial form and oral function. Pre-prosthetic surgery is a surgery done to obtain a better anatomic environment and to provide proper supporting structures for denture construction. The aim of this study was to analyse the various pre-prosthetic surgeries performed in a private dental institution. In this retrospective study, digital case records of all patients who underwent pre-prosthetic surgeries in Saveetha Dental College and Hospital from June 2019 to March 2020 were reviewed. Demographic details of patients and types of pre-prosthetic surgeries performed were recorded from digital case records. Retrieved data was analysed using IBM SPSS Software Version 23.0. Descriptive statistics and tests of association for categorical variables by Chi square tests were done and results were obtained. P value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. In this study, we observed that pre-prosthetic surgery was more commonly performed in the age group of 51-60 yrs (23.3%). Pre-prosthetic surgeries were done more in males than females. The most common type of pre-prosthetic surgery was valvuloplasty (62.2%), followed by frenectomy (20.7%). Statistically, a significant association was found between pre-prosthetic surgery and age group; pre-prosthetic surgery and gender; pre-prosthetic surgery and quadrant involved (p<0.05) Within the limits of this study, it can be concluded that the most common pre-prosthetic surgery performed was valvuloplasty. Pre-prosthetic surgery was performed more in males and the age group of 51-60 years, mostly in the third quadrant.
