This study aims to determine the students’ motivation and autonomy in online English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classes. It also classifies the Learning Climate Support (LCS). This quantitative study used the Perceived Locus of Causality Scale for academic motivation in university (PLOC-U) and the Learning Climate Questionnaire (LCQ 15). It involved 134 students from nine universities in Java, Indonesia. The results show that most students were on a moderate level in intrinsic motivation (m=5.25), regulated identification (m=5.74), regulated introjection (m=4.85), and external motivation (m=4.95). The mean of motivation loss was at a low level of 2.73. Most students were ‘regulated identification’ learners, which showed that most students were one step closer to being intrinsic or autonomous learners. Furthermore, LCQ indicated moderate acceptance of lecturers’ empathy and engagement in classes but a lower level of students’ assertiveness. The findings suggest that students did not experience demotivation in online learning, and students’ goals highly motivated students in online learning. The perceived LCS implies the need to improve learning instructions in online classes.

Authors: Cândido de Oliveira Campos Alexandre , Cristina Domingos da Palma Rute
Published: November 2023

O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar, por meio de bases nacionais, em que medida as características profissionais, territoriais e dos sistemas de ensino se correlacionam à satisfação docente. Para tanto, analisamos dados levantados pelo questionário dos professores do Sistema de Avaliação da Educação Básica (Saeb) em 2019, cotejando as estatísticas – obtidas pela regressão logística binária – com os resultados de outros estudos sobre o tema. Diversas pesquisas apontam que a insatisfação profissional está relacionada ao mal-estar docente e à síndrome de Burnout, realidade que afeta, além da pessoa do professor, a própria qualidade da educação. Dada a relevância do tema, cresce o número de trabalhos que investigam os fatores que podem impactar a satisfação docente. No entanto, revisões sistemáticas detectam poucas pesquisas a respeito das características discutidas neste artigo e, quando tratam desses aspectos, elas não utilizam dados de abrangência nacional. Apesar de se mostrarem inconclusivos no tocante às características dos sistemas de ensino, os resultados obtidos demonstram que as características profissionais e territoriais são determinantes para a satisfação docente.

Brazil is home to a great diversity of species of the genus Dyckia. However, many of these species are threatened due to habitat destruction and predatory exploitation. An alternative to conserving these plants is sexual propagation using plant regulators to stimulate germination. Gibberellic acid (GA3) is an effective regulator in this process, but its instability and ease of degradation pose challenges. Therefore, nanoencapsulation of GA3 could be used to protect the molecule and allow controlled release. In this study, the effects of different doses of GA3 were evaluated on the germination of four species: D. cabrerae, D. dusenii, D. pottiorum and D. walteriana. The first stage consisted of soaking the seeds in different concentrations of GA3, in which the species D. dusenii and D. walteriana showed significant responses to GA3, with an increase from 35% to more than 60% germination. However, the species D. cabrerae and D. pottiorum responded positively to GA3 only in vegetative growth parameters. In the second stage, the use of nanoparticles of alginate/chitosan (NP ALG/CS) and chitosan/tripolyphosphate (NP CS/TPP) containing GA3 was compared with free GA3 and with NPs without GA3. It was verified that the use of nanoencapsulated GA3 resulted in a more efficient germination response in D. walteriana seeds, using smaller doses of the regulator (between 0.75 mg · L−1 and 1.0 mg · L−1), mainly with the ALG/ CS NPs. Therefore, the use of GA3 is recommended for D. dusenii and D. walteriana, and for the latter, nanoparticles containing ALG/CS-GA3 allow a reduction in the required dose.

A TIME-CALIBRATED PHYLOGENY OF VERBESINA (HELIANTHEAE – ASTERACEAE) BASED ON NUCLEAR RIBOSOMAL ITS AND ETS SEQUENCES
Authors: Lopes Moreira Giselle , Panero Jose L. , Inglis W. Peter , Zappi C. Daniela , Cavalcanti, B. Taciana
Published: November 2023

Verbesina L. is a genus of the tribe Heliantheae, subtribe Verbesininae (Asteraceae), with distribution in the Americas, where Mexico and the Andes harbour the richest concentration of species. The approximately 325 species in the genus are shrubs, subshrubs, trees and rarely herbs. Despite its high species diversity and biogeographical importance, the only available phylogenetic hypothesis for Verbesina was based on chloroplast DNA restriction site data. In the present study, nuclear ITS and ETS DNA sequence data were used with an expanded taxon sampling, particularly among the South American Verbesina species, to improve phylogenetic resolution and support, clarify infrageneric relationships, and resolve biogeographical questions in the genus. The results of our new analysis corroborate the monophyly of Verbesina, but its current classification into 12 taxonomic sections, based on morphological characters such as phyllotaxis, head size, corolla colour, and presence of ray flowers, is not congruent with the molecular phylogeny, in which most sections are polyphyletic. We also show that Verbesina diverged in the late Miocene of North America, about 8 Ma. At least two independent Pleistocene dispersals into South America across the Isthmus of Panama and along the Southern Andes are evident, beginning around 3.23 Ma (1.27–3.23 Ma) in the Middle Pliocene, and resulting in an extra-Amazonian distribution of the genus inSouth America. Diversification in South America began around 2.83 Ma with occupation of the Andes. Colonisation of Brazil is  estimated to have occurred around 2.15 Ma, from Andean lineages.
