Using Games as an Alternative Way of Teaching English Online
Authors: Giyatmi
Published: February 2022

Covid-19 pandemic has shifted face-to-face learning into the online one. This shift gives impact to teachers, students, and parents. Most of the problems face by both teachers and students are the internet connection and technological mastery dealing with online learning. Besides, online learning also gives impact on the students’ psychological condition. Online learning might also cause pupils to feel frustrated, tired, and  idle faster. Furthermore, online learning causes pupils to become easily distracted and frustrated as a result of the quantity of responsibilities assigned by teachers. The teachers should find alternative ways to make online learning more attractive and motivate the students. One of themis using game during online learning or known as game-based learning. There are many game applications that the teacher can use in their online classroom, such as Kahoot, Wordwall, Quizwhizzer, www.learningapps.org, www.liveworksheet.com, www.flippity.net etc. Teachers can create games with those application, even teachers can create worksheet too. Teachers are supposed to get trained on how to make distance learning experience more interactive and the students get motivated.
Pluralism of Identities and Major Preferences of Freshwomen and Sophomore ELT Students
Authors: Hardianti  , Nur Sahril
Published: February 2022

This paper discusses the diversity of identities possessed by English Language Teaching (ELT) students, as prospective English language professionals, both in terms of their socio-cultural and linguistic pluralism. In addition, the complexity of the problem of determining majors that are still often encountered in the field will also be part of the discussion in this paper. By using the narrative study method, data were collected by analyzing the results of reflections carried out by the research subjects on how they view themselves as individuals and also members of diverse communities, their experiences before starting their study period as students of English education, what strategies they overcome difficulties during their study, especially since the pandemic until at the present time. Subject selection is done by purposive sampling method. This paper is expected to provide a useful reference for students and lecturers in analyzing needs at the beginning of the study period and helping students solve the problems they experience related to major preferences, with the provision of a good introduction to the identity of prospective ELT professionals. This will support their success in language education that prioritizes respect for the linguistic and cultural diversity of others as an inseparable part of this global and unpredictable era. Furthermore, the idea is expected to give valuable insights for Transformative English Studies.

Authors: Nurrahmi
Published: February 2022

This paper explores further elaboration of grammatical frames of speaking verbs. All data are taken in Corpus of Contemporary American English. This paper aims to 1) To analyse the structure of sentences that refers to the main grammatical frames of Speaking verbs, 2) To extend the classification into the Tense and Aspect category.
The research describes the potential category of grammatical frames in Speaking verbs by categorizing and interpreting the structure of the sentence. It is compulsory to use systemic description which adopts deepsyntactic analysis: matrix and complement clause, simple and complex sentence, and the use of Tense and Aspect. The extended classification resulted in some classification of grammatical frames; in frame I, ‘Describe’is allowed. In frame II, ‘Shout’ and ‘Call’ are allowed. In frame III, ‘Talk’, ‘Speak’, ‘Discuss’ and ‘Describe’ are allowed. In frame IV, ‘Talk’, ‘Discuss’, ‘Describe’ and ‘Shout’ are included. In frame V, ‘Discuss’, ‘Shout’ and ‘Call’ are included. All classified verbs are also marked in Irrealis, AP (present), PP (present), AP (present) and PP (past). By approaching the data in deep syntactic analysis at the level of clause and sentence, the extended classification of grammatical frames of Speaking verb is also constructed in simple and complex sentence.

Government-Made (BSE-Buku Sekolah Elektronik) vs Commercial Textbooks: Which One Is Better?
Authors: Sari Eka Puspita
Published: February 2022

The Indonesian Ministry of Education provides a free electronic and printed textbook called BSE (Buku Sekolah Elektronik) that they recommend using. However, schools have their authority to choose their compulsory textbooks. Based on the preliminary observation of BSE, it has some limitations regarding physical appearance, content, design, organisation, methodology and cultural sensitivity. Many studies analyse a comparison between government-made and commercial textbooks. However, none of the studies analyses English language textbooks that cover analysis in the above limitation aspects. This research purpose to give a comparative analysis of government-made and commercial textbooks. The subject of this study was chosen using a purposive sampling technique. Namely, one 7th grade English language textbook made by the Indonesian government and the most commonly used of Indonesian commercial English language textbooks published by Erlangga, Yudhistira and Tiga Serangkai. This research employs qualitative methodology with descriptive analysis method using the modified framework developed by McDonough (2012). The analysis will examine external aspects (visual materials gender and cultural sensitivity) and a closer and detailed evaluation from internal aspects (reading skills, listening skills, speaking skills, and writing skills). This study will have several implications. Namely, 1) Look at how impactful a selection of government and private textbooks for teaching ESL, 2) Have a positive impact on English language education by providing essential information for schools to choose textbooks, and 3) Identify how far the textbooks engage with the theory of good textbooks production.

IDEOLOŠKA PODSTAT VLADAVINE PRAVA
Authors: Spruk Jure
Published: February 2022

Povzetek. Preučevanje ideološke podstati vladavine prava pomeni zavedanje, da to načelo ni zgolj formalizem. Pomeni tudi zavedanje, da je materialni pomen tega načela vezan na temeljne moralnopolitične vrednote, ki so v modernih državah sicer zapisane v ustavnih besedilih, a hkrati so te vrednote del širšega ideološkega okvirja, ki ponazarja politično zasnovo politične skupnosti. Ideologije ne gre opredeljevati kot negativnega bremena nekega političnega prostora, temveč kot nujen pogoj za delovanje in učinkovanje političnega. Določitev načina vladanja je produkt političnega procesa in v tem smislu ima vladavina prava lastno ideološko podstat v klasičnem liberalizmu, ki zgodovinsko izide iz vrednot svobode in formalne enakosti, s katerima ta politična ideologija nastopi proti fevdalizmu in absolutizmu. V imenu teh vrednot nastane načelo vladavine prava kot instrument omejevanja osrednje državne oblasti v moderni državi, kar spodbudi šele skupek političnih razmerij, ki so se nagnila na stran liberalnega meščanstva v politični bitki s fevdalno aristokracijo.

Članek je sestavni del obsežnejše doktorske študije in ga obravnavamo kot pilotno raziskavo, s katero želimo osvetliti subjektivna prepričanja vodij o povezanosti osebnostnih lastnosti z osebno učinkovitostjo in timsko uspešnostjo ter opisati razliko med ugotovitvami te kvalitativne raziskave in kvantitativnimi raziskavami že izvedenih študij. Uporabili smo kvalitativni način raziskovanja, s katerim na vzorcu 18 vodij skušamo poiskati odgovore na ključna vprašanja z metodo polstrukturiranih intervjujev. Pregled rezultatov je pokazal, da vodje najpogosteje izpostavljajo osebnostno lastnost sprejemljivosti kot pomemben dejavnik, ki vpliva na osebno učinkovitost in timsko uspešnost. Menijo, da tudi osebnostne lastnosti odprtost, ekstravertnost in vestnost vplivajo na preučevane konstrukte. V primerjavi s kvantitativnimi raziskavami vodje veliko večji pomen pripisujejo sprejemljivosti kot ekstravertnosti in v manjši meri poudarjajo pomen nevroticizma. Pilotna študija je pokazala, da po mnenju vodij osebnostne lastnosti vplivajo na osebno učinkovitost in tudi na timsko uspešnost.

Abstract. This study investigated the relationship between the anxiety provoked by threatening events in society like the Covid-19 pandemic, and illusory pattern perception, with conspiracy beliefs. Using an experimental design, in Study 1 high vs. low anxiety was manipulated, while in Study 2 we manipulated intuitive pattern search, with the findings supporting the assumption that greater anxiety and higher intuitive pattern search lead to an increase in conspiracy beliefs. In order to prevent the detrimental effects of beliefs in conspiracy theories on the individual and societal levels, we recommend transparent information and pre-warning, as well as a focus on critical thinking in education.

COVID-19: THE CHILD OF GLOBALISATION OR
THE MOTHER OF DE-GLOBALISATION?
Authors: Svetličič Marjan
Published: February 2022

Abstract. The objective of the article was to evaluate
the relationship between the Covid-19 pandemic and
globalisation (GLO) and de-globalisation (de-GLO) tendencies.
Based on a theoretical evaluation of this relationship
as well as historical development, it concludes
that Covid-19 is not the mother of de-GLO but its child,
born in a completely new global context facilitating the
pandemic. The roots of the pandemic’s conception are
more deeply embedded in the capitalist system, in its
principal elements (market system, consumerist development
model…). GLO as a global division of labour is
not over; the factors enhancing GLO are winning over
those slowing it down, provided that GLO becomes more
egalitarian and more human. A fully-fledged de-GLO
would be inefficient and painful. While the pandemic
is not a black swan, it could have been predicted. Such
an unprecedented crisis impersonated by the pandemic
also offers an opportunity to fundamentally rethink of
our theories, way of life and development paradigm
and, not the least, the whole system to be better prepared
for future similar crises.

Abstract. Since 2015, the residential neighbourhood of
Rožna dolina has experienced intense building activity
that has been supported by the city of Ljubljana, but has
been met with resistance from the local inhabitants, thus
becoming the most visible local expression of the universal
capitalist conflict between the use and exchange
value of space. The article main aim is to analyse the
concrete manifestation of this conflict by looking at the
operations of the local state, investors and inhabitants
in the production of space in Rožna dolina. The analysis
shows that the conflict is influenced by the specific
local state’s dependency on economic actors, by specifics
of local real estate market and workings of developers
and by the composition of inhabitants of Rožna dolina.

DEBUNKING ‘THE GREAT EQUALISER’ DISCOURSE:
MINORITY PERSPECTIVES FROM BULGARIA AND
KOSOVO DURING THE FIRST SHOCKWAVE OF THE
COVID-19 PANDEMIC
Authors: Trupia Francesco
Published: February 2022

Abstract. During the first shockwave of the Covid-19 pandemic, the risk of infection was inaccurately touted as ‘the great equaliser’. However, the virus’ rapid spread and the state of emergency accelerated the magnitude of pre-existing inequalities by taking a heavy toll on already marginalised, exploited and extremely poor segments of societies. Focussing on sub-national contexts in Bulgaria and Kosovo, this article demonstrates how Bulgarian Roma and Kosovo Serbs were not only hit the hardest by the introduction of ad hoc lockdowns and curfews, respectively, but also how disciplinary mechanisms of control and surveillance were embedded in public methods and cultural policies of scapegoating and ascribing images of societal irresponsibility and backwardness upon these two minority groups.

South American regional smoke plume in recent years: main sources and impact on solar radiation focusing on the Pantanal 2020 biomass burning season
Authors: Rosário Nilton Évora do , Sena Elisa Thomé , Yamasoe Marcia Akemi
Published: February 2022

Abstract. The 2020 biomass burning season in Brazil was marked by an unprecedented amount of fire counts across the Pantanal biome, which led to high levels of air pollution within the biome and downwind areas. Large amount of fire counts was also detected in the Amazon Forest during 2020 compared with the recent years. However, the contribution of Pantanal fire emissions to the regional smoke plume was speculated to rival the contribution of fire emissions from Amazon. Aiming to contextualise the 2020 biomass burning season focusing on the unprecedented role of Pantanal, the present study's main goal is to analyse the recent biomass burning seasons in Brazil looking at the fire counts, the regional smoke plume and its impact on surface solar radiation (SSR). The focus is on the biomes most affected by the recent biomass burning events, Amazon forest, Cerrado and especially Pantanal. To characterise the regional smoke plume we analysed aerosol optical depth, single scattering albedo and its impact on the solar radiation reaching the surface. The influence of interannual variability of the wind at 850 hPa on the transport of the regional smoke plumes was also explored. In 2020, the regional smoke plume covered an area well above 6 million km2, the largest area in the last six years, but equivalent to the observed in a more remote past, as in 2007 and 2010. However, from the point of view of Pantanal, 2020 was an unprecedented year, not due to the amount of smoke over the biome, but regarding the biome contribution to the regional smoke plume. The number of fire counts was 3.4 times higher than the mean value considering the period from 2003 to 2020. The entire biome was continuously covered by a thick smoke layer from September to October, which resulted in a monthly mean deficit of surface solar radiation up to 300 Wm−2. Additionally, the 2020 regional smoke plume presented higher optical absorption when compared with the recent years plumes, which could be related to the Pantanal larger fire emission. However, current knowledge on optical and radiative properties of smoke aerosols from Pantanal is limited compared to the one resultant from Amazon and Cerrado fire emissions, which prevent a definitive conclusion.
Comprehensive detection of analytes in large chromatographic datasets by coupling factor analysis with a decision tree
Authors: Kim Sungwoo , Lerner Brian M. , Sueper Donna T. , Isaacman-VanWertz Gabriel
Published: February 2022

Abstract. Environmental samples typically contain hundreds or thousands of unique organic compounds, and even minor components may provide valuable insight into their sources and transformations. To understand atmospheric processes, individual components are frequently identified and quantified using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. However, due to the complexity and frequently variable nature of such data, data reduction is a significant bottleneck in analysis. Consequently, only a subset of known analytes is often reported for a dataset, and a large amount of potentially useful data are discarded. We present here an automated approach of cataloging and potentially identifying all analytes in a large chromatographic dataset and demonstrate the utility of our approach in an analysis of ambient aerosols. We use a coupled factor analysis/decision tree approach to de-convolute peaks and comprehensively catalog nearly all analytes in a dataset. Positive Matrix Factorization (PMF) of small sub-sections of multiple chromatograms is applied to extract factors that represent chromatographic profiles and mass spectra of potential analytes, in which peaks are detected. A decision tree based on peak shape, noise, retention time, and mass spectrum is applied to discard erroneous peaks and combine peaks determined to represent the same analyte. With our approach, all analytes within the small section of the chromatogram are cataloged, and the process is repeated for overlapping sections across the chromatogram, generating a complete list of the retention times and estimated mass spectra of all peaks in a dataset. We validate this approach using samples of known compounds and demonstrate the separation of poorly resolved peaks with similar mass spectra and the resolution of peaks that appear in only a fraction of chromatograms. As a case study, this method is applied to a complex real-world dataset of the composition of atmospheric particles, in which more than 1100 analytes are resolved.
RAP-Net: Region Attention Predictive Network for Precipitation Nowcasting
Authors: Zhang Zheng , Luo Chuyao , Feng Shanshan , Ye Rui , Ye Yunming , Li Xutao
Published: February 2022

Abstract. Natural disasters caused by heavy rainfall often cause huge loss of life and property. Hence, the task of precipitation nowcasting is of great importance. To solve this problem, several deep learning methods have been proposed to forecast future radar echo images and then the predicted maps are converted to the distribution of rainfall. The prevailing spatiotemporal sequence prediction methods apply ConvRNN structure which combines the Convolution and Recurrent neural network. Although ConvRNN methods achieve remarkable success, they ignore capturing both local and global spatial features simultaneously, which degrades the nowcasting in regions of heavy rainfall. To address this issue, we propose a Region Attention Block (RAB) and embed it into ConvRNN to enhance forecasting in the area with strong rainfall. Besides, the ConvRNN models are hard to memorize longer historical representations with limited parameters. To this end, we propose Recall Attention Mechanism (RAM) to improve the prediction. By preserving longer temporal information, RAM contributes to the forecasting, especially in the middle rainfall intensity. The experiments show that the proposed model Region Attention Predictive Network (RAP-Net) significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods.

Published: February 2022

Abstract. The influence of soil moisture initial conditions on the climate extreme
indices over West Africa was investigated using the fourth generation of the International Centre for Theoretical Physics regional climate model (non-hydrostatic) coupled with version 4.5 of the Community Land Model (RegCM4–CLM4.5) at a 25 km spatial resolution. We initialized the control experiments with the reanalysis soil moisture data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) reanalysis of the 20th century (ERA-20C), while we initialized the dry and wet experiments with the maximum and minimum soil moisture values over the West Africa domain, respectively. For each experiment, an ensemble of five runs was performed for 5 years (2001–2005) with soil moisture initial conditions for the runs prescribed on 1 June and the simulations being performed over 4 months (122 d) from June to September. The performance of RegCM4–CLM4.5 with respect to simulating the 10 extreme rainfall and temperature indices used in this study is presented. The results are then discussed for the two idealized simulations that are most sensitive to the dry and wet soil moisture initial conditions in order to highlight the impacts beyond the limits of soil moisture internal forcing in the model. Over the Central Sahel, dry (wet) experiments lead to a decrease (increase) in precipitation extreme indices related to the number of events, but this was not seen for indices related to the intensity of the events. Soil moisture initial conditions unequally affect the daily minimum and maximum temperatures. The strongest impact is found on the maximum temperature: wet (dry) experiments decrease (increase) the maximum temperature over the whole region. Over the Central Sahel, wet (dry) experiments lead to a decrease (increase) in the maximum values of the minimum temperature.

Published: February 2022

Abstract. Data from the DLR Earth Sensing Imaging Spectrometer (DESIS), mounted on the International Space Station (ISS), were used to develop and test algorithms for remotely retrieving ecosystem productivity. Twenty DESIS images were used from three widely separated forested study sites representing deciduous and conifer forests. Gross primary production (GPP) values from eddy covariance flux towers at the sites were matched with DESIS spectral reflectances collected on the same days. Multiple algorithms were successful relating spectral reflectance with GPP, including: spectral vegetation indices (SVI) sensitive to chlorophyll content, SVI used in a photosynthetic light-use efficiency model framework, spectral shape characteristics through spectral derivatives and absorption feature analysis, and statistical models leading to multiband hyperspectral indices from partial least squares regression. Successful algorithms were able to achieve R2 better than 0.7 using a diverse set of observations combining data from different sites from multiple years and at multiple times during the year. The demonstrated robustness of the algorithms provides some confidence in using DESIS imagery to map spatial patterns of GPP.

Abstract. Tackling the accelerated human-induced biodiversity loss requires tools able to map biodiversity and its changes globally. Remote sensing (RS) offers unique capabilities of characterizing Earth surfaces; therefore, it could map plant biodiversity continuously and globally. This approach is supported by the Spectral Variation Hypothesis (SVH), which states that spectra and species (taxonomic and trait) diversities are linked through environmental heterogeneity. In this work, we evaluate the capability of the DESIS hyperspectral imager to capture plant diversity patterns as measured in dedicated plots of the network FunDivEUROPE. We computed functional and taxonomical diversity metrics from field taxonomic, structural, and foliar measurements in vegetation plots sampled in Spain and Romania. In addition, we also computed functional diversity metrics both from the DESIS reflectance factors and from vegetation parameters estimated via inversion of a radiative transfer model. Results showed that only metrics computed from spectral reflectance were able to capture taxonomic variability in the area. However, the lack of sensitivity was related to the insufficient plot size and the lack of spatial match between remote sensing and field data, but also the differences between the information contained in the field traits and remote sensing data, and the potential uncertainties in the remote estimates of vegetation parameters. Thus, while DESIS showed some sensitivity to plant diversity, further efforts are needed to deploy suitable biodiversity evaluation and validation plots and networks that support the development of biodiversity remote sensing products.

Populismo, (post) hegemonía y democracia: repensar el populismo sin hegemonía
Authors: Valencia David Alejandro
Published: February 2022

El presente artículo plantea que el uso de la noción de hegemonía en la argumentación sobre el populismo y su capacidad democratizante en la obra de Ernesto Laclau implica un rezago antidemocrático que resta potencial emancipador y de ampliación de la participación política. La argumentación de Laclau incluye como horizonte ineludible de la articulación de un movimiento populista la formación de una hegemonía que sea capaz de disputar el poder político y que configure una ‘cadena de equivalencias’ entre ‘demandas sociales insatisfechas’. En consecuencia, el presente artículo revisa dos frentes de crítica a la argumentación de Laclau sobre la hegemonía en el populismo: uno que proviene de la academia estadounidense y es liderado por Alberto Moreiras y Jon Beasly Murray y otro que viene de la sociología argentina con la interactuó Laclau: Aboy Carlés y Emilio de Ipola. El sentido de revisar estás críticas es repensar el populismo sin hegemonía para hallar un camino que supere las dificultades que desde distintos frentes se endilgan a la obra de Laclau. La hipótesis que se presenta como alternativa es que una vez desprendido de la noción de hegemonía, el populismo se puede recategorizar en torno a su capacidad de solución a demandas insatisfechas y ampliación de participación política institucional en lo que llamaré ‘populismo transformativo’.

The purpose of these studies was to analyse and compare the content of bromine in samples of chicken eggs, feed, and water from different regions of Ukraine in the dynamics of 2016 – 2020: with an increased risk of bromine in products (Kharkiv, Poltava, Dnipropetrovsk and Mykolaiv regions) and outside the risk zone (Volyn, Vinnytsia and Zaporizhzhia). Studies of bromine content in eggs, feed, and water were performed in the laboratory of toxicological monitoring of the National Scientific Center "Institute of Experimental and Clinical Veterinary Medicine" (Kharkiv) using X-ray fluorescence analysis. As a result of the conducted researches, the increase of the bromine content in chicken eggs in the dynamics of 2016 – 2020 was established: the bromine content increased regardless of the region of the poultry farm location. The highest bromine concentration in chicken eggs was found in Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Mykolaiv, and Zaporizhia regions. Bromine source in poultry products is the excessive intake of bromine in the poultry body with alimentary environmental factors (feed and water). Bromine content in feed for chickens increased in the research dynamics (from 35.1% in the Poltava region to 2.5 times in the Zaporizhzhia region). It exceeded the established EFSA (4.4% of the total) and the average in Ukraine (51.2% of the total number of samples). In addition, the average bromine content in feed from poultry farms of the studied regions of Ukraine correlated with the number of registered and approved bromine-containing pesticides. The average bromine concentration in water sources in the studied regions of Ukraine had no significant differences compared to the beginning of the study but exceeded the maximum allowable concentration by 21.7% in 2016, 34.8% in 2018 and 39.1% in 2020. The maximum bromine concentration was in water sources in Mykolayiv, Kharkiv, and Dnipropetrovsk regions.

Kecerdasan emosional merupakan kemampuan siswa dalam mengenali dan mengontrol emosi diri, sehingga berdampak positif pada saat mengikuti pembelajaran. Kecerdasan emosional erat kaitannya dengan keterampilan metakognitif. Keterampilan metakognitif adalah kemampuan siswa untuk mengontrol proses belajarnya, mulai dari tahap perencanaan, memilih strategi yang tepat sesuai masalah yang dihadapi kemudian melihat kemajuan dalam belajar dan mengoreksi jika terjadi kesalahan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis hubungan antara kecerdasan emosional terhadap hasil belajar siswa dan menganalisis hubungan antara keterampilan metakognitif terhadap hasil belajar siswa. Jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian survey dengan menggunakan metode deskriptif korelasional. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah 920 siswa kelas VII seluruh SMP Negeri di Kabupaten Nunukan dan sampel penelitian adalah 242 siswa dengan penentuan sampel menggunakan rumus Nomogram Harry King. Keseluruhan data diperoleh berdasarkan skor dari angket kecerdasan emosional, tes essai keterampilan metakognitif, dan tes pilihan ganda hasil belajar siswa. Kemudian, data dianalisis dengan uji korelasi Pearson Product Moment. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kecerdasan emosional memiliki korelasi terhadap hasil belajar siswa sebesar 0,122 yang berarti kecerdasan emosional tidak memiliki hubungan terhadap hasil belajar siswa. Disamping itu, keterampilan metakognitif memiliki korelasi terhadap hasil belajar siswa sebesar 0,029 yang berarti keterampilan metakognitif memiliki hubungan terhadap hasil belajar siswa. Sumbangan efektif kecerdasan emosional terhadap hasil belajar sebesar 0,9% dan sumbangan relatifnya 34%.
