Tugas dan tanggung jawab utama dari seorang guru adalah menciptakan pembelajaran yang efektif, efisien, kreatif, dinamis, dan menyenangkan. Hal ini berimplikasi pada adanya kesadaran dan keterlibatan aktif antara dua subyek pembelajaran yaitu guru sebagai penginisiatif awal, pembimbing dan fasilitator dengan peserta didik sebagai orang yang mengalami dan terlibat aktif untuk memperoleh perubahan diri dalam pembelajaran itu sendiri. Untuk mengoptimalkan pencapaian hasil belajar maka diperlukan sebuah interaksi edukatf dalam proses pembelajaran.

Upaya untuk meningkatkan masalah tersebut, guru berinisiatif untuk merubah metode pembelajaran yang dapat membuat siswa lebih aktif dalam pembelajaran di kelas. Tentunya telah disesuaikan dengan materi pelajaran yang akan dibahas dalam pekan tersebut. Metode yang akan digunakan untuk meningkatkan hasil belajar siswa adalah metode Numbered Head Together, yang merupakan metode pembelajaran yang lebih memfokuskan pada kegiatan siswa dalam mencari, mengolah, dan menginformasikan hasil belajar yang telah dilakukan dengan mempresentasikan di depan kelas.
Pemberdayaan Ekonomi Umat Dalam Mengentaskan Kemiskinan Melalui Zakat Mal
Authors: Abdussomad Abdussomad
Published: October 2020

Untuk mencapai cita-cita keadilan sosial, zakat harus dikelola dengan baik dan menggunakan sistem yang akuntabel. Sayang, pengelolaan zakat masih berkutat dalam bentuk-bentuk konsumtif-karikatif yang tidak menimbulkan dampak sosial berarti. Zakat hanya diberikan langsung oleh muzakki kepada mustahik sehingga zakat tidak menjadi sistem sosial yang mampu melakukan transformasi sosial.

Bahkan pembagian zakat justru sering menimbulkan malapetaka kemanusiaan. Karena itu, pada praktiknya dana zakat yang begitu fantastis masih tidak mampu berperan secara optimal untuk memberantas kemiskinan. Maka pertanyaannya, bagaimana mengoptimalkan zakat mal sebagai pemberdayaan ekonomi umat untuk mengentaskan kemiskinan

Published: October 2020

Since the 2017/2018 school year the Banyumas Regency government has been organizing Acceptance of New Students at the junior high school level, one of which uses the zoning system. This is motivated because the quality of education in Banyumas Regency especially at the JHS level is uneven, as evidenced by the naming of favorite and non-favorite schools in the community. Since the implementation of the zoning system in Banyumas Regency has created new problems. This study aims to evaluate the implementation of education zoning policies in JHS 2 and 7 Purwokerto based on the applicable policy guidelines and to determine the supporting and inhibiting factors of JHS 2 and 7 Purwokerto in achieving the objectives of the education zoning system policy. The method used in this research is qualitative. The selection of informants uses purposive sampling technique. Data collection uses in-depth interviews, observation and documentation study. Data analysis method used is an interactive analysis method. The results showed that JHS 2 Purwokerto as a favorite school and JHS as a non-favorite school had complied with the applicable policy guidelines, there were supporting factors which were the decentralization of power from the central government to regional governments and there were inhibiting factors namely the presence of blank spots and the desire of the community to enter favorite schools. The findings of the study are that JHS 7 Purwokerto as a non-favorite school has not been able to capture children of good quality because it is inferior to the 15% quota for achievement paths so that children who have good grades prefer to enroll in schools that are considered favorites. The school should also do active socialization and publication related to the achievements obtained to prospective students and parents of students, it is hoped that in this way it can generate trust to attend school at the school.
Causes and consequences of pronounced variation in the isotope composition of plant xylem water

Abstract. Stable isotopologues of water are widely used to derive relative root water
uptake (RWU) profiles and average RWU depth in lignified plants. Uniform
isotope composition of plant xylem water (δxyl) along the stem
length of woody plants is a central assumption of the isotope tracing
approach which has never been properly evaluated. Here we evaluate whether strong variation in δxyl within woody
plants exists using empirical field observations from French Guiana,
northwestern China, and Germany. In addition, supported by a mechanistic
plant hydraulic model, we test hypotheses on how variation in δxyl can develop through the effects of diurnal variation in RWU, sap
flux density, diffusion, and various other soil and plant parameters on the
δxyl of woody plants. The hydrogen and oxygen isotope composition of plant xylem water shows
strong temporal (i.e., sub-daily) and spatial (i.e., along the stem)
variation ranging up to 25.2 ‰ and
6.8 ‰ for δ2H and δ18O,
respectively, greatly exceeding the measurement error range in all evaluated
datasets. Model explorations predict that significant δxyl variation
could arise from diurnal RWU fluctuations and vertical soil water
heterogeneity. Moreover, significant differences in δxyl emerge
between individuals that differ only in sap flux densities or are monitored
at different times or heights. This work shows a complex pattern of δxyl transport in the
soil–root–xylem system which can be related to the dynamics of RWU by
plants. These dynamics complicate the assessment of RWU when using stable
water isotopologues but also open new opportunities to study drought
responses to environmental drivers. We propose including the monitoring of sap
flow and soil matric potential for more robust estimates of average RWU
depth and expansion of attainable insights in plant drought strategies and
responses.
Alpine Holocene tree-ring dataset: age-related trends in the stable isotopes of cellulose show species-specific patterns
Authors: Arosio Tito , Ziehmer Malin M. , Nicolussi Kurt , Schlüchter Christian , Leuenberger Markus
Published: October 2020

Abstract. Stable isotopes in tree-ring cellulose are important
tools for climatic reconstructions even though their interpretation could be
challenging due to nonclimate signals, primarily those related to tree
aging. Previous studies on the presence of tree-age-related trends during
juvenile as well as adult growth phases in δD, δ18O, and
δ13C time series yielded variable results that are not coherent
among different plant species. We analyzed possible trends in the extracted
cellulose of tree rings of 85 larch trees and 119 cembran pine trees, i.e.,
in samples of one deciduous and one evergreen conifer species collected at
the tree line in the Alps, covering nearly the whole Holocene. The age trend
analyses of all tree-ring variables were conducted on the basis of mean
curves established by averaging the cambial-age-aligned tree series. For
cambial ages over 100 years, our results prove the absence of any
age-related effect in the δD, δ18O, and δ13C time series for both the evergreen and the deciduous conifer
species, with the only exception being larch δD. However, for lower
cambial ages, we found trends that differ for each isotope and species;
i.e., mean δ13C values in larch do not vary with aging and can
be used without detrending, whereas those in cembran pine show a juvenile
effect, and the data should be detrended. Mean δ18O values
present two distinct aging phases for both species, complicating detrending.
Similarly, mean δD values in larch change in the first 50 years, whereas
cembran pine changes between 50 and 100 years. Values for these two periods of cambial age
for δD and δ18O should be used with caution for
climatic reconstructions, ideally complemented by additional information
regarding mechanisms for these trends.
The PetroPhysical Property Database (P3) – a global compilation of lab-measured rock properties
Authors: Bär Kristian , Reinsch Thomas , Bott Judith
Published: October 2020

Abstract. Petrophysical properties are key to populating local and/or
regional numerical models and to interpreting results from geophysical
investigation methods. Searching for rock property values measured on
samples from a specific rock unit at a specific location might become a very
time-consuming challenge given that such data are spread across diverse
compilations and that the number of publications on new measurements is
continuously growing and data are of heterogeneous quality. Profiting from
existing laboratory data to populate numerical models or interpret
geophysical surveys at specific locations or for individual reservoir units
is often hampered if information on the sample location, petrography,
stratigraphy, measuring method and conditions is sparse or not documented. Within the framework of the EC-funded project IMAGE (Integrated Methods for
Advanced Geothermal Exploration, EU grant agreement no. 608553), an
open-access database of lab-measured petrophysical properties has been
developed (Bär et al., 2017, 2019b: P3 – database,
https://doi.org/10.5880/GFZ.4.8.2019.P3. The goal of this hierarchical
database is to provide easily accessible information on physical rock
properties relevant for geothermal exploration and reservoir
characterisation in a single compilation. Collected data include classical
petrophysical, thermophysical, and mechanical properties as well as electrical conductivity and magnetic susceptibility. Each measured value is
complemented by relevant meta-information such as the corresponding sample
location, petrographic description, chronostratigraphic age, if available,
and original citation. The original stratigraphic and petrographic
descriptions are transferred to standardised catalogues following a
hierarchical structure ensuring inter-comparability for statistical analysis
(Bär and Mielke, 2019: P3 – petrography,
https://doi.org/10.5880/GFZ.4.8.2019.P3.p; Bär et al., 2018, 2019a:
P3 – stratigraphy,
https://doi.org/10.5880/GFZ.4.8.2019.P3.s). In addition, information on
the experimental setup (methods) and the measurement conditions are listed
for quality control. Thus, rock properties can directly be related to
in situ conditions to derive specific parameters relevant for simulating
subsurface processes or interpreting geophysical data. We describe the structure, content and status quo of the database and
discuss its limitations and advantages for the end user.
On a new assessment method for long-term chemistry-climate
simulations in the UTLS based on IAGOS data: application to
MOCAGE CCMI-REFC1SD simulation
Authors: Cohen Yann , Marécal Virginie , Josse Béatrice , Thouret Valérie
Published: October 2020

Abstract. A wide variety of observation data sets are used to assess long-term simulations provided by chemistry-climate models (CCMs) and chemistry-transport models (CTMs). However, the upper troposphere – lower stratosphere (UTLS) has hardly been assessed in the models yet. Observations performed in the framework of IAGOS (In-service Aircraft for a Global Observing System) combine the advantages of in situ airborne measurements in the UTLS with an almost global-scale sampling, a ~ 20-year monitoring period and a high frequency. If a few model assessments have been made using IAGOS database, none of them took advantage of the dense and high-resolution cruise data in their whole ensemble yet. The present study proposes a method to compare this large IAGOS data set to long-term simulations used for chemistry-climate studies. For this purpose, a new software (named Interpol-IAGOS) projects all IAGOS data on the 3D grid of the chosen model with a monthly resolution, since generally chemistry-climate models provide 3D outputs as monthly means. This provides a new IAGOS data set (IAGOS-DM) mapped at the model's grid and time resolution. As a first application, the REF-C1SD simulation generated by MOCAGE CTM in the framework of CCMI phase-I has been evaluated during the 1994–2013 period for ozone and the 2002–2013 period for carbon monoxide. This comparison is exclusively based on the grid cells sampled by IAGOS, thus the assessed model output (MOCAGE-M) is obtained by applying a corresponding mask onto the grid. First, climatologies are derived from the IAGOS-DM product. Good correlations are reported between IAGOS-DM and MOCAGE-M spatial distributions. As an attempt to analyse MOCAGE-M behaviour in the upper troposphere (UT) and the lower stratosphere (LS) separately, UT and LS data in IAGOS-DM were sorted according to potential vorticity. From this, we derived O3 and CO seasonal cycles in eight regions well sampled by IAGOS flights in the northern mid-latitudes. They are remarkably well-reproduced by the model for lower-stratospheric O3 and also good for upper-tropospheric CO. The data projection onto the model's grid is a necessary step for a more accurate assessment, as it allows to filter out biases only due to either spatial or temporal resolution. Beyond the MOCAGE REF-C1SD evaluation presented in this paper, the method could be used by CCMI models for individual assessments in the UTLS and for model intercomparisons with respect to IAGOS data set.
Assessing global water mass transfers from continents to oceans over the period 1948–2016
Authors: Cáceres Denise , Marzeion Ben , Malles Jan Hendrik , Gutknecht Benjamin Daniel , Müller Schmied Hannes , Döll Petra
Published: October 2020

Abstract. Ocean mass and thus sea level is significantly affected by water
storage on the continents. However, assessing the net contribution of
continental water storage change to ocean mass change remains a challenge.
We present an integrated version of the WaterGAP global hydrological model
that is able to consistently simulate total water storage anomalies (TWSAs)
over the global continental area (except Greenland and Antarctica) by
integrating the output from the global glacier model of Marzeion et al. (2012) as an input to WaterGAP. Monthly time series of global mean TWSAs obtained with an ensemble of four variants of the integrated model,
corresponding to different precipitation input and irrigation water use
assumptions, were validated against an ensemble of four TWSA solutions based on the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite gravimetry from January 2003 to August 2016. With a mean
Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) of 0.87, simulated TWSAs fit well to
observations. By decomposing the original TWSA signal into its seasonal,
linear trend and interannual components, we found that seasonal and
interannual variability are almost exclusively caused by the glacier-free
land water storage anomalies (LWSAs). Seasonal amplitude and phase are very
well reproduced (NSE=0.88). The linear trend is overestimated by 30 %–50 % (NSE=0.65), and interannual variability is captured to a certain extent (NSE=0.57) by the integrated model. During the period 1948–2016, we find that continents lost 34–41 mm of sea level equivalent (SLE) to the oceans, with global glacier mass loss accounting for 81 % of the cumulated mass loss and LWSAs accounting for the remaining 19 %. Over 1948–2016, the mass gain on land from the impoundment of water in artificial reservoirs, equivalent to 8 mm SLE, was offset by the mass loss from water abstractions, amounting to 15–21 mm SLE and reflecting a cumulated groundwater depletion of 13–19 mm SLE. Climate-driven LWSAs are highly sensitive to precipitation input and correlate with El Niño Southern Oscillation multi-year modulations. Significant uncertainty remains in the trends of modelled LWSAs, which are highly sensitive to the simulation of irrigation water use and artificial reservoirs.

Authors: Becerra Gálvez Ana Leticia , Reynoso Erazo Leonardo , Lugo-González Isaías Vicente
Published: October 2020

Introducción: El cáncer suele provocar desafíos para quien lo padece, genera un decremento en la calidad de vida y alteraciones emocionales como la depresión. La experiencia de vivir con cáncer contribuye a la pérdida de rutinas diarias, favoreciendo el aislamiento y comportamientos de evitación. Objetivo: Conocer la eficacia de una intervención basada en el protocolo revisado de la Terapia de Activación Conductual Breve para la Depresión (BATD- R por sus siglas en inglés) sobre los síntomas de depresión y calidad de vida relacionada a la salud (CVRS) en mujeres con cáncer de mama. Método: Participaron seis mujeres en etapa de remisión del cáncer de mama con un rango de edad de 31 a 75 años (M=50,50 DT=15,7) de tres hospitales de tercer nivel de la Ciudad de México. La intervención estuvo constituida por seis sesiones semanales de una hora. El procedimiento incluyó: psicoeducación y presentación del tratamiento, selección de actividades considerando áreas de vida y valores, selección de actividades-metas, establecimiento de duración/frecuencia de las actividades elegidas y monitoreo semanal. Con el uso del análisis funcional de la conducta se determinó el empleo de otras técnicas complementarias. Resultados: Las seis pacientes presentaron una disminución clínicamente significativa según las puntuaciones del BDI-II (RCIJT= 2,55-4,58). Las pacientes dos, cuatro y cinco fueron quienes presentaron mejores resultados en la CVRS y un cambio clínico significativo (RCIJT= -2,01 a -5,44). Conclusiones: El protocolo BATD-R derivado del modelo de Activación Conductual, resulta ser una herramienta muy útil, flexible y fácil de utilizar en contextos hospitalarios.

Introducción: En los últimos años las aulas hospitalarias se han configurado como un elemento de gran importancia en la vida de los niños y adolescentes que se encuentran en tratamiento de diferentes enfermedades. Los pacientes de enfermedades oncológicas no son una excepción. Objetivo: Aunque las aulas hospitalarias en la actualidad son capaces de sincronizar su trabajo con los colegios de referencia de los pacientes, el propósito de este artículo es presentar y describir un estudio de caso que subraya el papel del aula hospitalaria en sí misma, como una herramienta educativa que es útil en la tarea de educar a sus alumnos de una forma global e inclusiva, sin soslayar los niveles de exigencia adecuados. Método: Presenta el caso de un adolescente de 16 años diagnosticado de un osteosarcoma localizado que requirió quimioterapia preoperatoria y postoperatoria, cirugía de alta complejidad y finalmente un tratamiento inmunomodulador por un tiempo prolongado. No tenía ningún tipo de actividad académica al haber terminado la etapa de aprendizaje obligatorio y no estaba matriculado en ningún colegio, y a través del Aula Hospitalaria de la Unidad de Hematología y Oncología Pediátrica del Hospital HM Montepríncipe llegó a ser un estudiante interesado y motivado. A pesar de que su enfoque es necesariamente multidisciplinar, este estudio presenta una perspectiva educativa y pone de manifiesto la función, posibilidades, ventajas y desventajas de las aulas hospitalarias y su coordinación con el resto del personal. Lo hace poniendo al paciente en medio de su enfoque, a través de una visión humanística que enfatiza el verdadero significado de la educación. Conclusiones: El propósito de un aula hospitalaria no debe ser solo académico, pues tiene un papel fundamental en el objetivo de que el niño y adolescente con cáncer se convierta en un adulto sano física, psíquica, social y espiritualmente.

Appraisal Devices Realizing Attitudes in Barack Obama’s First Inaugural Speech
Authors: Alhabib Aram A
Published: October 2020

Following Martin and Rose’s (2007) Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) approach, this paper, adopting qualitative analysis, analyzed Barack Hussein Obama’s Inaugural Address “new era of responsibility” from the perspective of Appraisal System. Martin and Rose (2007) divided Appraisal System into three distinct sub-systems: Source (Engagement), Amplification, and Attitude. In the process of detailed analysis, this paper focused on Obama’s Attitude, the feelings, and values that are negotiated with the audience (Affect, Judgment, and Appreciation), towards his speech. Analyzing the data that falls under the genre of political discourse, it could be inferred that the address employed three kinds of Attitudes; Affect, Judgment, and Appreciation. The findings of the study revealed that Obama’s speech was full of hope and a positive attitude toward the future of the United States. The president used accessible language but still formal; he used affirmative and simple direct sentences in his speech, so he can easily shorten the distance between him and the audience.
The Influence of Citizen Competence on District Level Political Accountability in Uganda
Authors: Kanyamurwa John Mary , Obosi Joseph Okeyo
Published: October 2020

Citizen competence in a democratic society is perceived as an essential mechanism for promoting political accountability in local governance. This paper, thus, qualitatively investigates the relationship between citizen competence and political accountability in Uganda’s local governance system across two discrete political regimes, during the post-independence period. Using an in-depth explorative design, it was established that citizens in both regimes were largely inarticulate, disengaged and uninvolved in determining local preferences, suggesting minimal link between citizen competence and the propensity to promote political accountability at district level. The data suggested that citizen competence was less influential in district politics for the greater part of the post-colonial period. Nonetheless, there were also episodes where citizens actively participated in enforcing political accountability at the grassroots under multiparty politics in both the Obote II and NRM regimes, with slight variations in the intensity and pattern between the two periods. Thus, the level of citizen competence and nature of local governance in Uganda mirror the political accountability practices at the local level, mainly shaped by civic challenges and the character of politics in Uganda during the periods studied regardless of differences and longevity. The paper recommended deliberate state intervention for mobilization of citizens and the establishment of state-engineered dynamic social networks to generate capacity for holding local leaders accountable and more empowered civil society to construct robust citizen competence programmes to foster political accountability.

Published: October 2020

El carcinoma de plexo coroideo se considera dentro de los tumores del cerebro como uno de los más infrecuentes, presentándose principalmente en la población pediátrica con mayor incidencia en hombres. Las principales manifestaciones clínicas son secundarias a la obstrucción del flujo de líquido cefalorraquídeo. Dentro de los estudios de imagen que se pueden emplear para realizar el diagnóstico están la tomografía computarizada y la resonancia magnética sin embargo el diagnóstico definitivo es el estudio anatomopatológico. Presentamos el caso clínico de un niño de 13 años de edad que acudió a la emergencia de pediatría del Hospital Mario Catarino Rivas por cefalea de dos meses de evolución que posteriormente presentó alteración de la marcha y hemiparesia derecha. El principal objetivo de tratamiento es la resección total sin embargo no se logra en todos los casos. Se ha propuesto el uso de quimioterapia adyuvante con o sin radiación, sin embargo, aún no se ha estandarizado este enfoque.

Published: October 2020

This paper intends to analyse political leadership from the perspective of political behaviour of political leaders. There must be a reason for voters to decide which election candidate to vote. Political leadership as contextually described represent some of the most important elements for voters to decide whether or not a particular leader should be elected as Member of Parliament or State Legislative Assemblies in Malaysia. There are five aspects of political leadership forming leadership characters relevant to voters’ choice and preferences in any given election. They are loyalty, integrity, competency, commitment and resilience. The absence of these characters could render a particular candidacy a fatal. These five characters could be regarded as principle centred of a leader and in the same time the main features that would contribute to the success of an elected political leader. It is not only words best spoken by the candidate but also the campaigner’s success in highlighting these characters to the voters that would open their eyes to vote the best candidate. In some cases, traditionally, at some constituency votes are given to the parties that have been traditionally representing the constituency. To a certain extent it is called the party’s ‘traditional seat’. Now, voters do not only look to a party or the so-called ‘traditional seat’ context. Today voters give high regards to who the candidates are and what are the qualities the candidates have.

Published: October 2020

Law enforcement against forest burning during the Covid-19 pandemic was carried out extraordinary. The state is obliged to fulfill the rights of citizens to a good and healthy environment, to overcome forest fires. The country must also restore environmental quality from smoke pollution, as well as the government's commitment to tackling climate change due to forest fires during the Covid-19 pandemic. In this article, the problem is how is law enforcement against forest burning during the Covid-19 pandemic? and how to fulfill community rights to a healthy environment related to forest burning during the Covid-19 pandemic? The method used is a variety of literature and information media during a pandemic related to forest burning, as well as the Law on Environment and Forest Management, using qualitative juridical analysis. In conclusion, first, law enforcement against forest burning during the Covid-19 pandemic is carried out extraordinarily by implementing a system of heavy sanctions, revoking permits, optimizing the recovery costs for Covid-19 response to the results of corporate efforts to guarantee the economy of citizens and donations to the state to address the handling of Covid-19, and to involve indigenous peoples in forest areas with local wisdom that contribute to reducing carbon emissions, so that climate change can be resolved during the Covid-19 pandemic; second, the fulfillment of people's rights to a healthy environment related to forest burning during the Covid-19 pandemic is a state obligation guaranteed by the constitution, maintaining good environmental quality, and Indonesia's commitment to reducing carbon emissions and forest fires due to climate change, as well as law enforcement, oriented towards fulfilling the rights to the environment and health of citizens.

Applying a high strength coating on a blade’s surface could significantly prolong the service life of a centrifugal pump under sediment-laden water flow because of its protection. To explore the effect of blade coating, the characteristics of energy, vibration and pressure fluctuation of a centrifugal pump (the specific speed (ns) is 81.46) with different polyurethane coating thickness coefficients were experimentally studied under sediment-laden water flow. Keeping the blade outlet angle, blade inlet angle and blade shape unchanged, the head H and efficiency η under both sediment-laden flow and clear water flow decrease significantly as the coating thickness coefficient increases. The axis rotating frequency and blade passing frequency are the main excitation frequencies of the pump vibration velocity amplitude and outlet pressure fluctuation. The vibration velocity amplitude and outlet pressure fluctuation at the frequency of 1 BPF are the largest. At the frequency of 1 axis rotating frequency, they are the second in all cases. The peak values of both vibration velocity amplitude and outlet pressure fluctuation are proportional to the coating thickness coefficient. An analysis was performed for several increasing coating thicknesses, corresponding to coating coefficients from K0 to K3. When the coating thickness coefficients are K0, K1, and K2, the peak value of vibration velocity amplitude under sediment-laden flow is larger than that under clear water flow, but the very small difference between them undercoating thickness coefficient K3. The peak values of pressure fluctuations under different flow rates decrease first and then increase with the increasing coating thickness coefficient, and lowest points are all located at the coating thickness coefficient K1.

Published: October 2020

Thermal barrier coatings play a key role in the operational life of microturbines because they reduce thermal stress in the turbine components. In this work, numerical computations were carried out to assess new materials developed to be used as a thermal barrier coating for gas turbine blades. The performance of the microturbine components protection is also evaluated. The new materials were 8YSZ, Mg2SiO4, Y3Ce7Ta2O23.5, and Yb3Ce7Ta2O23.5. For testing the materials, a 3D gas microturbine model is developed, in which the fluid-structure interaction is solved using CFD and FEM. Temperature fields and stress magnitudes are calculated on the nozzle and blade, and then these are compared with a case in which no thermal barrier is used. Based on these results, the non-uniform temperature distributions are used to compute the stress levels in nozzles and blades. Higher temperature gradients are observed on the nozzle; the maximum temperature magnitudes are observed in the blades. However, it is found that Mg2SiO4 and Y3Ce7Ta2O23.5 provided better thermal insulation for the turbine components compared with the other evaluated materials. Mg2SiO4 and Y3Ce7Ta2O23.5 presented the best performance regarding stress and thermal insulation for the microturbine components.

Leader-to-Leader: Reflexive Leadership in the Midst of Covid-19 and Social Unrest
Authors: Ulmer Ward
Published: October 2020

A leader is only one person in one position, and one person’s ideas are not a panacea for all social ills. But effective leadership can shift the outcome of an organization to manifest its mission of positive social change considering changes in society. Most people have been exposed to leaders who tinker around the edges and others who call for revolution. Leaders are leaders only because they have capable followers. The truth is that some things are just too big for one individual. And when we happen upon those things, we must stand together, hold each other accountable, and encourage one another.
Stakeholder Engagement and the Enhanced Entrepreneurship of VET Graduates
Authors: Rizzo Alex , De Bono Silvio , Kenely David
Published: October 2020

This study forms part of an ongoing research endeavour by the Malta College of Arts, Science, and Technology (MCAST) to map out and understand
the entrepreneurial behaviours and actions that are particular to students who graduate after completing further or higher vocational education and who enter an entrepreneurial venture. An understanding is sought on how active stakeholder engagement enhances the capability of a Vocational Education and Training (VET) College to contribute positively and significantly towards the knowledge, skills, and competences of its students. Of interest to both the vocational and academic community is the linkage between educational activities and entrepreneurship. Ardichvili and Cardozo (2000) argue that learning activities and the subsequent knowledge acquired positively impact opportunity recognition and discovery. This follows on the lines of Autio et al. (1997), Krueger (1993), and Peterman and Kennedy (2003) in that educational activities influence students’ entrepreneurial intentions and the desirability and feasibility of starting a business. The research aims to understand how stakeholder engagement empowers the vocational educator to provide distinct enterprise-relevant advantages to the vocational student. Vocational education programmes offer a component distinct from the normal academic learning. Whilst the knowledge component is ever-present, as would be in any educational programme, skills and competences take on a new meaning, one that is not lost in enterprise behaviour. Skills are practical and transversal, giving vocational graduates an edge in understanding how to behave and make decisions in a dynamic business environment. Competences are stronger, particularly the competence of the vocational graduate to make decisions with autonomy and responsibility. The outcome of this vocational setting and the way that this is influenced by predominant stakeholders is of much interest to the researcher and to the academic and business community.
