Religiosity in Pulamai ilakkanam
Authors: K Karthick , V Thiruveni
Published: September 2021

Until the Sangam literary period (till 200 AD), Tamil language was secular and Tamil literature was created with an emphasis on virtue in both internal and external life. After that, religious literature started appearing in Tamil language. Tamil grammar texts are based on literature that appeared in different periods. Thus the “Pulamai ilakkanam” (grammar for scholarliness) composed by Vannacharabam Dantapani swami reveals the literary context that prevailed in the 19th century when he lived. Pulamai ilakkanam shows the author's religiosity and the religious beliefs and devotion in the field of education and literature at that time. Grammar is the rules for creating literature. If so, constructing Tamil scholarliness in relation to a particular religion would be tantamount to narrow down the breadth of the Tamil language. Based on the content of Pulamai ilakkanam and the literary context of the time, this article discusses the dominance of the religions over Tamil literature and the use oflanguage by religions for their development.
„Ergreifendes Realtheater“ Tendenzen von Bertolt Brechts und Peter Weiss’ Theatertheorien in Milo Raus Schauspielstücken und Dramenpoetik1
Authors: Springer Nadeschda
Published: September 2021

In dem Beitrag wird untersucht, ob Milo Raus Schauspielkonzeption in eine Traditionslinie mit den Theorien von Bertolt Brecht und Peter Weiss eingeordnet werden kann. Dabei stellt sich die Frage, ob sich Rau lediglich der Merkmale seiner Vorgänger bedient oder sie weiterentwickelt. Die Untersuchung zeigt, dass Rau sich zwar an den Theorien von Brecht und Weiss orientiert, diese aber radikaler umsetzt, wodurch er nicht nur hinsichtlich der Theaterpraxis, sondern auch bezüglich der Rezeptionsweise neuartige Vorgehensweisen hervorbringt.

Authors: Tukiar Mohd Azuan , Kassim Nor Fauzian
Published: September 2021

This article aims to carry out a scoping review of the implementation of remote teaching for engineering laboratory courses in higher learning institutions during the pandemic COVID-19. Outcome-Based Education (OBE) implementation has required the graduate to attain a minimum of twelve skills and attributes upon graduating from the engineering program; it includes the psychomotor skill involved in laboratory courses. The finding shows that it has various implementations in conducting laboratory courses during the pandemic. The implementation includes recording a video, conducting an online simulation to replace the experimental work, and transforming face-to-face activity into a virtual lecture, modelling, and simulation. The approach for the laboratory that uses software also has recorded videos, using open-source software similar to the software listed in the syllabus, and some institutions allow students to access the computers lab remotely. There are no physical experimental works carried out in the laboratory during the pandemic due to non-access to the lab. Students then are expected to learn from the video to grasp the knowledge and concept. This 'scope review' also found that they have not discussed the suitable assessment in evaluating the psychomotor skill during the pandemic. Therefore, this paper recommends conducting a study to determine the implementation of a laboratory course and investigate the effectiveness of the assessment conduct during the pandemic COVID-19 to obtain the course learning outcome and evaluate its psychomotor skill.

Especially, the prevalence of depression among college students is extremely higher than the general population; thus, it is essential to study among college students. Specifically, the utilizing of the health Public Service Announcement (PSA) is aiming to raise public awareness about health issues. Thus, this study emphasized on Depression Public Service Announcement and its effectiveness. By utilizing the Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM), this study examined the consequences of the dual-process method towards stigmatized attitude changes about depression among students at a Malaysian public university. Cluster sampling technique was used to select respondents and a total of 185 respondents participated in two groups of experiments. Respondents in each group were exposed to two different D-PSAs with either high-quality depression messages or low-quality depression messages. Attributional Questionnaire (AQ) was adapted to measure respondents’ attitudes toward depression, and a set of questionnaires based on Reynolds’s study was applied to evaluate the information processing approach used. Lastly, the results demonstrated that D-PSA with a high-quality message elicits higher elaboration of respondents and less stigmatized attitudes. Conversely, D-PSA with low-quality messages elicits lower elaboration and more stigmatized attitudes about depression.

RUMO A UMA FORMAÇÃO SOCIAL DO ENGENHEIRO
Authors: Aravena-Reyes José
Published: September 2021

As novas Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais do Curso de Engenharia são uma recente conquista dos setores governamentais, industriais e acadêmicos do Brasil. O amplo acordo alcançado revela a existência de uma perspectiva consensual de sociedade que, embora não explicitada na normativa, aparece de forma autoevidente. As novas diretrizes parecem equacionar vários endêmicos problemas da formação, ao mesmo tempo que apontam para outras demandas oriundas da atual realidade, a qual exige a formação de mais e melhores engenheiros mediante, entre outras medidas, o desenvolvimento de competências soft skills. Este artigo propõe uma discussão crítica no espaço estabelecido entre o modelo de sociedade que implicitamente consideram as diretrizes e as demandas por uma ampla formação social dos engenheiros, para favorecer o desenvolvimento adequado dessas competências, ditas comportamentais. Se argumenta que, sem uma formação social ampla, ao formação do engenheiro pode ajudar a consolidar um modo cognitivo atrofiado, impedindo à Engenharia Nacional de promover seus próprios caminhos. Conclui-se sobre a necessidade de uma formação social que favoreça o surgimento da inventividade engenheiril como forma de ampliar as possibilidades de promover modos de vida alternativos aos modos de vida hegemônicos que, implicitamente, promovem as novas diretrizes.

Design and development of near-infrared (NIR) dyes with strong binding on the TiO2 surface is inevitable for the realization of the dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) with improved efficiency and stability. A series of NIR dyes bearing different anchoring groups have been designed considering their suitability as sensitizers for DSSCs based-on TiO2 and iodine-based redox electrolytes. Under the Gaussian program, density functional theory (DFT)/6-311G/B3PW91 level of theory and time-dependent-DFT using the polarizable continuum model is shown optimum for the prediction of the highest occupied molecular orbital energy level and electronic absorption spectra. The reliability of the calculated results was validated by corresponding experimental results for some of the representative dyes. It has been demonstrated that λ
max at full width at half maximum in calculated absorption spectra exhibited an excellent match with the experimentally estimated Eg of the sensitizers leading to the proposal of a new method for the construction of the theoretical energy band diagram. Amongst newly designed sensitizers, dyes bearing dual anchoring groups like SQ-149, SQ-150, SQ-158, SQ-161 and SQ-162 are highly promising not only for good NIR photon harvesting but also to impart to improved DSSC stability.

On job training serves as one of the prime tools of staff capacity development and talent management in any public or corporate entity including the power sector distribution companies (DISCOs) in Pakistan. This DISCOs used this approach to train more than 400 officials at Asian Institute of Technology, Thailand, hoping it to improve their performance in addressing Pakistan’s power sector crisis. This paper evaluates this capacity-building intervention by gathering the perceptions of trainees and top management to understand the ways this multi-level, integrated capacity-building program enhanced the professional quality of customer services. The question that emerges in backdrop of such initiatives is whether this and other similar investments in human resource development (through effective, innovative and relevant teaching) can improve efficient services delivery. The paper presents a thematic analysis of qualitative and descriptive data collected from randomly selected participants and reviews their feedback on this question. The results suggest a thorough examination of the relationship between human development and organizational capacity-building with indicators of service quality in Pakistan's power sector.

Philosophical and Biological Foundation of Brain Based Learning: A Phenomenological Approach
Authors: Fatima Fozia , Ali Sabir
Published: September 2021

This investigation was undertaken to look at the philosophical and biological foundation of brain based learning through phenomenological approach. Subjective method of investigation was used. Interviews were taken through semi-structures procedure in which 12 instructors were involved as a sample. Two topics of the examination were assessed and it was discovered that authenticity, optimism, realism, dualism, naturalism, cognizant and oblivious part of cerebrum and constructivism were straightforwardly related with brain oriented learning approach. Correspondingly, Brain is not organically comprehended by the educator completely in light of the fact because cerebrum discovery is tranquil as a young ground of teaching learning process. Instructor have been rehearsing cerebrum based adapting normally yet they are not ready to express a reasonable balanced for their activity yet the educators still practice the mind based adapting adequately.

Authors: Iqbal Anum , Naseem Samina , Azam Shafia
Published: September 2021

This survey study explores and discusses the implementation of practicum model for B.Ed (Hons.) Elementary Programme provided by USAID and Higher Education Commission, Pakistan in three different teacher education institutions of Rawalpindi and Islamabad. All 60 Student Teachers (STs) were taken as a sample. Data were collected through a questionnaire from the students enrolled in Semester VIII. The questionnaire comprised of open and close ended questions, based on week-wise tasks mentioned in the Practicum Guidebook. Results of the study reveal that all three Teacher Education institutions are implementing teaching practicum based on their own priorities. In addition, the analysis reveals that STs of two institutions are providing more opportunities to practice the expected tasks. However, all three institutions must enhance STs’ lesson planning and reflective skills by providing opportunities for observing cooperative teachers teach, co-planning, triad meetings and regular seminars. It is also recommended to use National Professional Standards for Teachers for assessing STs’ skills.

Analysis of Students’ Satisfaction on Quality Education at	Government Colleges in Lahore Division
Authors: Sadiq Alia
Published: September 2021

Quality education is the most important and considered as a pivot for progress to uplift the lives of a nation. The success of the educational institutions relies not only on quality education but also on the satisfaction of students. This study aims to explore the relationship between quality education and student satisfaction and difference regarding demographic variables at college level in Lahore Division. All the students from 80 government degree colleges of Lahore division were the population of this study. The study was descriptive in nature and has followed correlational research design. By using simple random sampling technique forty government degree colleges (50% of the population) were selected as sample by adopting lottery method. Self-constructed questionnaires for students “Quality Education Assessment Scale” and “Student Satisfaction Assessment Scale” were the instruments of this study. Appropriate statistical analysis techniques were used on the collected data. Product Moment Correlation Co-efficient were used for determining quality education and student satisfaction. Independent sample t-test was applied to find the difference between demographic variables. Results of the study indicated that quality education exits in colleges according to students. There was moderate significant correlation between two variables (r=.625, p<.05) of the quality education and the students’ satisfaction. As compared to male students, the female students’ had perceived more satisfaction towards students’ satisfaction. Both intermediate and bachelor students’ had perceived almost same level regarding students’ satisfaction.

Haematological and Haemostatic Changes Associated with Major Depressive Disorder among Nigerians.
Authors: Ekun Oloruntoba A.
Published: September 2021

Background: A link between major depressive disorder (MDD) and haematological as well as co-agulation disorders has been postulated. This study aims to evaluate haematological and haemostatic changes among Nigerians with major depressive disorder
Methods: Two hundred volunteers consisting of an equal number of individuals diagnosed with major depressive disorder (MDD) based on DMS-IV criteria and apparently healthy control participated in this study. The blood sample was collected into tri-sodium citrate K2EDTA bottles respectively and was evaluated for some haemostatic parameters , using ELISA, Clauss, Quick’s One Stage, Proctor and Rapaport’s methods.
Results: The mean WBC, hemoglobin and differential lymphocyte were significantly higher among MDD total volunteers (p < 0.001). The red cell indices and platelet count were lower among MDD (p <0.001). Also the prothrombin time (PT), fibrinogen, protein-C and erythrocytes sedimentation rate (ESR) were all raised (p <0.001) among volunteers with MDD. Positive associations existed be-tween MCV and RBC (r: 0.364; p<0.001), PT and APTT (r: 0.319 p <0.001), APTT and fibrinogen (r: 0.239, p = 0.017) as well as PT and fibrinogen (r: 0.275 p = 0.006) at 95% confidence interval.
Conclusion: Changes in total leucocytes count, lymphocytes values and haemostatic parameters among volunteers with depression may impacts deleterious effects on the immune response as well as haemostatic homeostasis, while decreased red cell indices may suggest occult nutritional anaemia.
Screening of Amodiaquine for its in vitro Anti-cancer Activity on Breast Cancer Cell Lines- a Case Study for Drug Reprofiling
Authors: Salako Kehinde S.
Published: September 2021

Background: Cancer is one of the foremost contributors to global disease bur den and constantly requires new therapeutic options. The development of new drugs has failed to keep up with its incidence. Hence, drug reprofiling strategies are emerging as novel therapeutic options. The study aimed to evaluate the anti-cancer activity of amodiaquine (anti-malarial drug) using a combination of murine and human breast cancer cell lines
Methods: Amodiaquine was authenticated by ultra-violet spectrophotometry, high- performance liquid chromatography and 1D nuclear magnetic resonance. In vitro cytotoxicity of amodiaquine was evaluated against three breast cancer cell lines. MDA-MB-453, 4T1 and MDA-MB-231 cells were incubated with the drug at different concentrations (0.78, 1.56, 3.13, 6.25, 12.50, 25.00, 50.00, 100.00 μM) for 72 h, after which cell viability testing was conducted using the cell counting kit-8 assay. Negative control in which no drug was added to the cells was also evaluated. The flow cytometry analysis of MDA-MB-231 cells when treated with amodiaquine was also evaluated by a flow cytometer using annexin V/propidium iodide staining assay.
Results: Cell viability studies showed that the IC50 values of amodiaquine on MDA-MB-453, 4T1, and MDAMB-231 cells were 6.48 ± 1.12, 10.50 ± 1.17, and 19.23 ± 1.16 μM, respectively. The flow cytometry analysis of MDA-MB-231 cancer cells treated with amodiaquine showed cancer cell death by necrosis.
Conclusion: This study has shown that amodiaquine may be potentially reprofiled as an anti-cancer agent in
managing androgen receptor-positive / HER-2 positive and triple-negative breast cancer types. An additional probable mechanism of action of anti-cancer activity of amodiaquine was found to be necrosis .
