Examining Performance Assessment: Illuminating Teacher Development and The Construction of a Profession
Authors: Buchanan Rebecca
Published: July 2019

Mandated teacher performance assessments (TPAs) have recently become a popular form of high-stakes assessment in teacher education. For example, California requires all pre-service teachers to successfully complete a TPA before receiving a preliminary credential, and edTPA, a TPA distributed by Pearson, has been adopted by over 800 teacher education programs in the U.S. High stakes performance assessments are used as gatekeepers, consequently serving as a professionalizing tool. This paper uses sociolinguistics and critical discourse analysis of completed TPAs to explore the vision of the profession that the assessment communicates to novice teachers. Analysis demonstrates how pre-service teachers position themselves as well as how the demands of the assessment position them.
Coreografías didácticas institucionales y calidad de la enseñanza
Authors: Beraza Miguel A. Zabalza , Cerdeiriña María Ainhoa Zabalza
Published: July 2019

Enseñar es “the intencional arrangement of situations in which apropiate learning will occur” (Menges,1997). Partiendo de ese principio, muchas de las miradas y de las prácticas educativas han ido cambiando el foco, trasladando el protagonismo de lo que el docente decía o hacía a lo que los estudiantes hacen en ambientes de aprendizaje especialmente preparados para enriquecer su experiencia y orientar su aprendizaje. Las coreografías, metáfora tomada del mundo de la danza (Oser y Baeriswyl, 2001) forman parte de esas nuevas miradas sobre la enseñanza. Con una arquitectura simple, las coreografías contienen 4 componentes básicos: anticipación, coreografía externa, coreografía interna y producto. El presente artículo trata de situar el concepto de coreografía en el contexto de estas nuevas miradas sobre la docencia universitaria y se centra, sobre todo, en las coreografías institucionales, sobre las que se presenta un modelo de análisis basado en 9 variables: las tres básicas de toda docencia (docente, estudiante, contenidos); otras tres referidas a las características de organización interna de los tres elementos básicos de la docencia mencionados (relaciones entre los docentes; relaciones entre los estudiantes; relaciones entre los contenidos); y, finalmente, otras tres variables referidas a la relación de cada uno de esos elementos con los otros dos: relaciones entre profesores y estudiantes; relaciones entre estudiantes y contenidos; relaciones entre profesores y contenido.
A Bécsi Vételi Egyezmény Tanácsadó Testületének a vevő megvizsgálási és értesítési kötelezettségének határidejével, az általános szerződési feltételekkel, valamint a kamattal kapcsolatos véleményei és a nemzeti bíróságok gyakorlata

A standardizációnak a gazdasági hatékonyság szempontjából egy globális világban óriási jelentősége van. Ez igaz a jogtudomány területére is, és főleg a nemzetközi kereskedelmi jogra. Ugyanakkor, nemzetközi jellege ellenére, ezen a jogterületen is meglepően kevés olyan mintatörvény vagy nemzetközi egyezmény született, amelyek megpróbálták volna egységesíteni az ide vonatkozó anyagi jogot. Ezek közül a legfontosabb az Egyesült Nemzeteknek az áruk nemzetközi adásvételi szerződéseiről szóló, Bécsben, az 1980. évi április hó 11. napján kelt Egyezménye (a továbbiakban: Egyezmény), melyet Magyarországon az 1987. évi 20. törvényerejű rendelet hirdetett ki. Az Egyezményt eddig 89 állam ratifikálta, ami jelentős sikernek számít.

A gyakorlatban a legnagyobb problémát egy ilyen jellegű egyezménynél az egyes rendelkezések egységes értelmezése és alkalmazása jelenti. Az Egyezmény 7. cikkének (1) bekezdése foglalkozik az egységes alkalmazás követelményével, amit némelyek úgy értelmeznek, hogy a bíróságoknak és választottbíróságoknak az Egyezmény alkalmazása során precedensként figyelembe kell venniük más nemzeti bíróságok korábbi döntéseit. Ez az álláspont annyiban problematikus, hogy a precedens rendszer a bíróságok közötti hierarchián alapszik, és ebben az esetben az egyes nemzeti bíróságok vagy választottbíróságok között ilyen nem létezik. Sajnos a szerződést kidolgozó Nemzetközi Kereskedelmi Jogi Bizottság (UNCITRAL) nem foglalkozik az Egyezmény gyakorlati alkalmazása során felmerülő kérdések megválaszolásával. Mivel egyre több kérdés merült fel az utóbbi évtizedekben, 2001-ben magánkezdeményezésre, elismert nemzetközi szakértők, jogtudósok létrehozták az Egyezmény Tanácsadó Testületét (CISG Advisory Council). A Testület feladatának tekinti az Egyezmény egységes értelmezésének elősegítését, és e célból tanácsadó testületi véleményeket fogalmaz meg. A gyakorlatban ezek a vélemények elősegíthetik az Egyezmény világszerte egységes alkalmazását, habár semmiféle kötőerővel sem bírnak.

Ugyanakkor, mivel ilyen sok különböző jogrendszerben alkalmazzák, érdemes folyamatosan nyomon követni, hogy az egyes nemzeti bíróságok az Egyezmény egyes rendelkezéseit hogyan értelmezik a gyakorlatban, és hogy figyelembe veszik-e a Tanácsadó Testület véleményeit. A jogegységesítés folyamata ugyanis nem áll meg az Egyezmény elfogadásával, hanem a joggyakorlat közös mederben tartására is kiterjed, ennek pedig a legjobb módja a folyamatos „kommunikáció” biztosítása a bíróságok között, azaz az egyes nemzeti bíróságok ítéleteinek az elérhetővé tétele, elemzése. Ezt a feladatot szeretné betölteni a jelen tanulmány is, amely a különböző nemzeti bíróságoknak az utóbbi néhány évben született döntéseit, valamint az Egyezmény Tanácsadó Testületének véleményeit vizsgálja három témakörben: a vevő megvizsgálási és értesítési kötelezettségének határideje, az általános szerződési feltételek, valamint a kamat kérdése.

Efficacy of Alveolar Recruitment Maneuvers in the Adult Obese Patient Undergoing General Anesthesia: A Systematic Review of the Literature
Authors: Banks Joseph
Published: July 2019

There are many pathophysiologic health effects associated with obesity, and the effects on normal respiratory physiology can be profound. The presence of increased adipose tissue can limit a patient’s functional residual capacity, reduce end expiratory lung volumes, and increase small airway closure. When exposed to general anesthesia with mechanical ventilation these physiologic changes can increase atelectasis development and increase the likelihood of ventilation-perfusion mismatching. Alveolar recruitment maneuvers are brief applications of positive airway pressure that are employed to recruit alveoli that have already collapsed and prevent new atelectasis formation. The purpose of this systematic review was to determine if the use of alveolar recruitment maneuvers are a safe and effective treatment strategy for managing the adult obese patient requiring general anesthesia with mechanical ventilation. The theoretical framework that guided this systematic review was the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) checklist. Randomized control trials that utilized alveolar recruitment maneuvers in adult obese patients were reviewed and appraised for inclusion in this systematic review. It was determined that alveolar recruitment maneuvers are a safe and effective strategy for minimizing atelectasis development in the adult obese patient undergoing general anesthesia. Alveolar recruitment maneuvers were associated with an improved intraoperative oxygenation, a decreased alveolar-arterial oxygen concentration gradient, and improved lung compliance. Furthermore, alveolar recruitment maneuver use demonstrated a decrease in atelectasis development measured via computed tomography and radiograph imaging. Application of these maneuvers in the obese patient during the perioperative period can improve ventilation-perfusion matching and decrease respiratory complications associated with atelectasis development.
Smartphone Apps in Anesthesia: The Next Generation
Authors: Tello Joshua
Published: July 2019

The number of smartphones in use around the world is increasing daily, as are the apps that are available. Apps are being designed to aid in many aspects of health care practice, including anesthesia, to augment care of patients. The purpose of this study was to ascertain whether student registered nurse anesthetist (SRNAs) enrolled in Rhode Island College School of Nursing/ St. Joseph Hospital School of Nurse Anesthesia program were using smartphones routinely in their practice, if they were using anesthesia-specific smartphone applications (apps), and if so, what types of apps they were using. Rogers’ Diffusion of Innovations (2003) was the theoretical framework that guided this non-experimental quantitative descriptive study. Following review by the Rhode Island College IRB, 12 participants completed a survey developed by the researcher. Of the respondents, 100% reported using apps to assist in clinical practice, seven participants reported using drug specific apps more than seven times a week, and nine participants reported using apps for case specific information more than seven times a week. The decision to include anesthesia apps as part of a SRNAs clinical practice is one that each clinician must make based on knowledge, experience, and evidence-based care. However, further research is needed to understand the role of smartphone apps in anesthesia care by SRNAs and CRNAs.

Published: July 2019

The change in the dimension (Thickness Swelling; TS) was found to be high, at high boric acid content for boards made from Office paper/Newspaper (O/N) and Office paper/Old Corrugated Container (O/C) types. However, the boards made with 10% boric acid exhibits higher Modulus of Rupture (MOR) values than boards made with 5.0% boric acid. The highest value of MOR was found as 7.93 MPa with the addition of 10% boric acid with Newspaper/Old Corrugated Containers (3:1 by weight) mixtures. The Modulus of Elasticity (MOE) of the boards generally decreased with increasing boric acid content from 5% to 10% in furnishes. The Office paper/Newspaper had the highest MOE among the all formulations and considerable higher than standard value of 600 MPa.  However, the highest value of MOE was found as 735.63 MPa with the mixture of 3:1 (by weight) proportions of Office paper/Newspaper proportions. The similar results were observed for Internal Bond (IB) properties of boards, as like MOE. While in general, increasing boric acid content from 5.0 to 10%, negative effects on IB properties of boards. It was also realized that the boric acid content and fiber proportions effects various level on thermal properties (thermal conductivity; TC). The boric acid had usually provided higher thermal resistance, but the difference between fiber proportions and fiber types consisting of boric acid was important. However, the lowest TC value of 0.1455 W/mK was found the boards made from only old corrugated containers fibers with 10% BA content. The sound absorption values of boards made from secondary fibers show a sound damping that it was steady increase up to 1600 Hz and then decreasing. It could be realized that the sound absorption properties of boards were generally better than that of in lower frequencies.It was also realized that the boric acid content and fiber proportions effects various level on thermal properties (thermal conductivity; TC).

Learning is an obligation for every believer to gain knowledge in order to improve the degree of life for them. To be able to absorb optimal learning, the application of effective learning is needed. This paper aims to provide information to educators on the effective learning concept, the concept of apperception and how to do apperception in creating effective learning. The apperception conducted in the early stages of learning is generally considered to be a small thing and sometimes forgotten that many learning activities leads to failure. The apperception can create effective learning because the apperception can lead learners to condition (zone) alpha, which is the best condition for learning so that learners more easily absorb the lesson material. The research method used is a qualitative method. The expected results of this paper are the achievement of effective learning for students so that the learning process can be optimized

Faham tentang Larangan Shalat Jumat Bagi Wanita di Gorontalo
Authors: Kasim Dulsukmi
Published: July 2019

Tulisan ini mengangkat kasus faham shalat Jumat muslimah Desa Bulotalangi Timur yang ada di Kecamatan Bulango Timur Kabupaten Bone Bolango. Dari tiga masjid yang ada di desa Bulotalangi Timur, hanya masjid al-Hidayah yang muslimahnya menjalankan faham bahwa wanita tidak boleh shalat Jumat, sehingga mereka datang ke masjid pada hari Jumat hanya untuk shalat Dhuhur berjamaah dan diimami seorang pria. Faham ini muncul sejak tahun 1994 yang diajarkan oleh seorang guru ngaji bernama Karim Daud. Tidak dijumpai adanya dalil nas khusus dalam menjalankan faham tersebut. Langgengnya faham tersebut dipicu oleh sedikitnya 4 faktor: 1) Rendahnya tingkat pendidikan dan pengetahuan agama warga desa tersebut; 2) Kurangnya perhatian dari lembaga pemerintah dan tokoh masyarakat setempat; 3) Adanya fanatisme buta atas doktrin sang guru/ustad; 4) Kurang tersentuhnya mereka oleh dakwah ulama Gorontalo (MUI, Kementerian Agama, dan da’i).

Authors: ALİ Sahjahan , KASHEM Md. Abul , AZİZ Md. Abdul
Published: July 2019

The present study is an attempt to see the boro rice cultivation and
agro-economic performance in haor
area. A total number of 65 farmers’ were randomly selected by using random
sampling technique. Data were collected from the sampled farmers’ through
direct interview method using a questionnaire. The study was carried out to list down the available 31
boro rice variety cultivated in the haor
area. Most of the farmers had
low capital consuming agricultural machinery. Considering all farmers,
per hectare labourer required for boro rice cultivation in haor area was 149 man day-1 ha-1. The highest
per hectare labourer required for boro rice cultivation in haor area was found 157 man day-1 ha-1 in
case of medium farmers followed by large (154 man day-1 ha-1),
small (149 man day-1 ha-1), marginal (147 man day-1
ha-1) and landless (138 man day-1 ha-1)
farmers, respectively. Considering full cost, the average cost of rice
production was Tk. 38153 ha-1 under the all sampled farmers’.
Farmers’ average cost of rice production for land preparation, intercultural
operation, seed, fertilizer, irrigation, pesticide, harvesting, threshing,
carrying and others were of Tk. 3735, 6881.92, 1912.95, 6308.64, 2523.20,
782.80, 9277.07, 3421.27, 3073.57 and 236.87 ha-1, respectively. The
average all sampled farmers’ net-return earned form boro rice production was Tk. 52646
ha-1 and yield was 5.31 t ha-1.
The economic returns earned from rice
production of Tk. 49137, 52595, 50777, 56338 and 55003 ha-1 against the yield of 4.97,
5.26, 5.24, 5.60 and 5.45 t ha-1 for landless, marginal, small, medium and large farmers’ categories,
respectively. Productivity of boro rice is low due to imbalance use of
fertilizers but yield showed higher than that of national average production in
Bangladesh due to one cropped area in haor.

Brainstem modulation of large-scale intrinsic cortical activity correlations
Authors: Brink Ruud L. van den , Pfeffer Thomas , Donner Tobias
Published: July 2019

Brain activity fluctuates continuously, even in the absence of changes in sensory input or motor output. These intrinsic activity fluctuations are correlated across brain regions and are spatially organized in macroscale networks. Variations in the strength, topography, and topology of correlated activity occur over time, and unfold upon a backbone of long-range anatomical connections. Subcortical neuromodulatory systems send widespread ascending projections to the cortex, and are thus ideally situated to shape the temporal and spatial structure of intrinsic correlations. These systems are also the targets of the pharmacological treatment of major neurological and psychiatric disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease, depression, and schizophrenia. Here, we review recent work that has investigated how neuromodulatory systems shape correlations of intrinsic fluctuations of large-scale cortical activity. We discuss studies in the human, monkey, and rodent brain, with a focus on non-invasive recordings of human brain activity. We provide a structured but selective overview of this work and distill a number of emerging principles. Future efforts to chart the effect of specific neuromodulators and, in particular, specific receptors, on intrinsic correlations may help identify shared or antagonistic principles between different neuromodulatory systems. Such principles can inform models of healthy brain function and may provide an important reference for understanding altered cortical dynamics that are evident in neurological and psychiatric disorders, potentially paving the way for mechanistically-inspired biomarkers and individualized treatments of these disorders.
Modular Pleiotropy, Molecular Patterns, and the Need for Attention in Avian Pigmentation Evolution
Authors: Coyle Brian M
Published: July 2019

Lorenz's Kinderchenschema can lead to genetic repurposing (pleiotropy) as mutations that help infants survive are later used for adult mating. Around 2014 it was discovered that blue eyes and blond hair appeared first among human infants. Color attracts, essential for infant mammal survival. Pleiotroptic regulators were selected to enable these attribute to be retained in adults, as attraction capacity also increases mating success.Nestlings birds have beaks with internal membranes called gapes, frequently colorful and/or patterned. Beaks conserve vital genetic information, useful over 30 million years of radiation. Colorful gapes are present in monochromatic as well as species with colorful plumage. Gapes and the beak's cere are the only colored part of many raptors, a broad group related to ancestors of many landbirds. Gapes are bird Kinderchenschema, an infant display feature that compels parent behavior.Birds move in extradimensional space, with bifurcated visual systems that lets one side control flight in the face of distraction. Bright, bold displays aid navigation. Ecological psychology, developed for pilot training, established motion perception as the core of direct perception. Bird gapes serve as landing pads.Mammalian Kinderchenschema is dominated by superficial features of the head, such as eye and forehead size, to transact emotion that encourages protection and feeding. Atricial bird kinderchenschema also promotes protection and feeding. When nestlings are vulnerable to predation, internal mouth color remains hidden, protecting them. When nestling parents approach, the internal mouth color is exposed, enabling feeding.For a nestling color to be repurposed in plumage, it may trigger a conditioned response that aids selection. Nestling displays trigger adult bird neurotransmitters. Color can be disassociated from underlying structure and transferred, along with hormone release.There's a strong correlation between gape and plumage color. Adaptionist explanations of gape and feather colors emphasize nutrient conditions, but these increase saturation, not brilliance. It is color's attention-grabbing aspect that makes it so important for nestlings, and transferable for mating. Given changing environments, that require birds to evolve different color displays, the conserved resource of gape color is important.

Penelitian ini menganalisis pengaruh tiga jenis slack resources (financial slack, innovational slack, dan managerial slack) terhadap nilai perusahaan perdana atau IPO value yang diukur dengan jumlah proceeds saat IPO serta discretionary current accruals sebagai variabel moderasi dalam mengukur kualitas pelaporan keuangan. Enam puluh dua sampel diuji dari 4 sektor industri (basic industry & chemicals, agriculture, others dan trade, services & investment) dengan menggunakan metode regresi linear berganda. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa Innovational Slack memiliki pengaruh positif dan non-linear negatif (U-terbalik) terhadap nilai perusahaan perdana. Working capital slack tidak memiliki pengaruh terhadap IPO Value. Cash reserve slack memiliki pengaruh positif dan Experience Slack memiliki pengaruh negatif terhadap nilai perusahaan perdana. Discretionary current accruals mempengaruhi secara negatif hubungan cash reserve slack terhadap nilai perusahaan perdana. Berkebalikan dengan hipotesis yang diajukan, jumlah executives slack memiliki pengaruh negatif dan non-linear positif (berbentuk U) terhadap nilai perusahaan perdananya.
“Rarely safe to assume”: Evaluating the use and interpretation of manipulation checks in experimental social psychology
Authors: Ejelöv Emma , Luke Timothy John
Published: July 2019

Although the use of manipulation checks is widespread in social psychology, several researchers have raised methodological concerns about their use and interpretations. However, knowledge of how they are actually being used has been lacking. Extracting data from published reports of 207 recent experiments, we provide an empirical review of current practices concerning manipulation checks in social psychology. Our review suggests that there are serious deficiencies in the manner in which manipulation checks are used and interpreted. For example, published reports tend to contain highly limited quantitative reasoning about the effectiveness of manipulations, and researchers report little or nothing to address the possibility that manipulation checks might cause undesirable reactivity among participants. However, we argue that manipulation checks can be highly beneficial components of experiments when used properly, and they have untapped potential for the quantitative assessment of the strength of manipulations relative to the effect on the dependent variable (i.e., causal efficacy). To assist with such assessments, we provide empirical benchmarks for causal efficacy in social psychology. Additionally, we provide several recommendations for researchers and reviewers for improving the use and reporting of manipulation checks.
