Analysis of student needs of the mathematics club (MC) as a co-curricular activities as an effort to grow up 4C skills
Authors: Primasatya Nurita , Imron Ilmawati Fahmi
Published: December 2020

In the industrial revolution 4.0, 4C’s skills (critical thinking, creative thinking, collaboration, and communication) are essential for the students. Therefore, starting from elementary school, these skills need to be cultivated. According to Permendikbud No. 23 of 2017, there are 3 activities that must carry out, namely intra-curricular, co-curricular, and extra-curricular. Like intra-curricular activities, co-curricular activities should be structured and systematic as intra-curricular that have teaching material. However, the reality is a lot of school don’t have a good preparation for doing co-curricular. Co-curricular is the activities of deepening the material (indicator) there are in intra-curricular, so the material presented in co-curricular activities must be the material that is difficult or that needs enrichment. One of the materials that requires enrichment is mathematics. It is because mathematics has contained difficult material and is usually feared by the students. This article will specifically discuss the needs of students in full-day schools whose co-curricular activities in Mathematics Club (MC) are an cultivate 4C’s skills. The method used exploratory research method. The result of this research found that Schools needed activities such as Mathematics Club because the schools had not implemented cocurricular activities optimally. Di era revolusi industry 4.0, keterampilan 4C (critical thinking, creative thinking, collaboration, and communication) penting untuk dimiliki siswa. Oleh karena itu, mulai dari tingkat sekolah dasar, kemampuan ini perlu ditumbuhkan. Sesuai Permendibud No 23 tahun 2017 terdapat 3 kegiatan yang harus dilakukan sekolah yakni intrakurikuler, kokurikuler, dan ekstrakurikuler. Layaknya kegiatan intrakurikuler, kegiatan kokurikuler seharusnya juga tersusun secara terstruktur dan sistematis disertai dengan bahan ajarnya. Namun, kenyataannya sekolah belum memiliki kesiapan yang maksimal terkait dengan perancangan dan pelaksanaan kegiatan kokurikuler tersebut. Kegiatan kokurikuler adalah kegiatan pendalaman materi (indikator) yang ada dalam kegiatan intrakurikuler, jadi materi yang disajikan dalam kegiatan kokurikuler haruslah materi yang sulit atau butuh pengayaan. Salah satu materi yang membutuhkan pengayaan adalah materi matematika. Hal ini dikarenakan matematika selalu menjadi materi yang sulit dan ditakuti siswa. Artikel ini secara spesifik akan membahas kebutuhan siswa di sekolah full day terhadap kegiatan kokurikuler mathematics club sebagai upaya menumbuhkan keterampilan 4C. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode penelitian eksploratif dimana peneliti melakukan observasi dan wawancara secara mendalam terhadap kebutuhan sekolah terhadap kegitan kokurikuler Mathematics Club. Hasil penelitian menemukan bahwa sekolah membutuhkan kegiatan seperti Mathematics Club karena sekolah belum menerapkan kegiatan kokurikuler secara maksimal.
Intelligent Pubescent Oak Forests (Quercus Pubescens Wild.) From Dobroudja Plateau, Romania
Authors: Dinca Lucian , Vechiu Emilia
Published: December 2020

Dobrudjea Plateau, located in south-east Romania, is characterized by low altitudes, old rocks, a temperate-continental climate and a silvosteppe and steppe vegetation. Pubescent oak is one of the tree species characteristic for this area. With average dimensions, this tree fulfils numerous ecosystem functions.

The concept of “Climate-Smart Forestry – CSF” is recent and was adapted in this article for the pubescent oak characteristic for this area; clear and measurable criterions were also identified and applies for this species in order to identify the smart stands.

Smart pubescent oak forests represent 3% of all this specie’s stands and are more common in the north part of Dobrudjea Plateau. They are characterized by advanced ages (61-70 years), 20%-30% compositions and even-aged structures. The forests are located on relatively small distances from forest roads, at altitudes of 100m - 250 m, and on west and east expositions.

The present study has showed that smart pubescent oak forests can be established by taking into account 14 site (flora, soil or forest type) and stand conditions (pruning, vitality, average diameter and height, functional group and category, litter). The identification of these stands is extremely important for their protection as well as for applying the appropriate silvicultural measures.

Authors: Khan Adnan , Khan Aasma , Naz Bisma , Rukhsar Rukhsar
Published: December 2020

Present study is aimed to calculate the water quality index (WQI) of Surjani Town by using weighted arithmetic index method to assess its suitability for drinking purpose. For calculating WQI, 12 parameters (pH, TDS, EC, Hardness, Na, Ca, K, Mg, HCO3, SO4, NO3 and Cl) have been taken into account. Except pH, all physicochemical parameters are exhibiting the maximum prominence in WQI quality rating scale (Qn) which suggests that groundwater is highly polluted. The computed value of water quality index (WQI= 331.62) is also found to be high which is comparable with enormously high concentrations of physicochemical parameters that are violating the WHO admissible limit for drinking purpose. Results revealed that the groundwater is under the influence of anthropogenic activity from nearby Jam Chakro solid waste dumping site. It is concluded that groundwater is highly deteriorated which is immensely inappropriate for drinking purpose according to WQI rating score.

Published: December 2020

Es geht mir im folgenden Text um die Auseinandersetzung mit der Triebtheorie, bei welcher Laplanche eine zentrale Rolle spielt. Ausgehend von Laplanches Allgemeiner Verführungstheorie (1987) möchte ich die verschiedenartigen Verwendungen seiner triebtheoretischen Ausführungen in Bezug auf sein Konzept der rätselhaften Botschaft diskutieren, das in der psychoanalytischen Literatur sehr verschiedenartig benutzt und verstanden wird. In der frühen unbewussten sexuellen Mutter-Kind-Beziehung werden diese rätselhaften Botschaften von der Mutter in das Kind implantiert. Es sind unbewusste Botschaften, die niemals restlos verstanden werden können. In der Rezeption von Laplanche scheint das Problem darin zu bestehen, dass die Alterität in der rätselhaften Botschaft ignoriert wird.

The current study is meant to be a contribution to the promotion and development of an important geographical area for the municipality of Oradea, namely the rural proximity area that is part of the Oradea Metropolitan Area (OMA). The magnitude of the tourism phenomenon, as a sustainable resource could contribute to a functional reconsideration of this space that can bring about an overall territorial development, based on economic competitiveness, sustainable development, social cohesion or the development of new technologies. In this sense, it is not possible to conceive the development of an area from a tourist viewpoint without the existence of a suitable infrastructure (tourist, technical, transport), because it can influence, depending on the endowment degree and updated technology, the volume and structure of the tourist traffic. Thus, the main infrastructure components were identified, quantified and analyzed, each TAU being granted a certain score according to the evaluation methodology, based on which a certain hierarchy and highlighting of the main dysfunctions could be achieved. In conclusion, it was found that the existing tourist and technical infrastructure is satisfactory, but disproportionately distributed, a situation somewhat accountable due of the existence of the two spas, Băile Felix and Băile 1 Mai.

Published: December 2020

The factors which control mechanical properties of plastic polymer foams were systematized. The procedure to unify their deformation behavior up to the strain not above yield strain was proposed. The general features of the deformation behavior of polymer foams were discussed in terms of the unified stress-strain diagram and unified ratios between mechanical parameters of the materials, which are not dependent on chemical nature of polymers and the structure of the foams, as well as on time-temperature regimes of deformation. The general pattern of deformation was shown for organic and inorganic plastic bodies.

Review and Restructure of Zambia's 2008 Mining Windfall Tax
Authors: Banda Webby , Besa Bunda
Published: December 2020

Zambia is richly endowed with mineral wealth. However, it is still encapsulated in the resource curse conundrum. This is because the benefits of mineral wealth have not translated into public development. This has sparked a lot of debate among the Zambian citizenry as to whether the mineral fiscal policies instituted over time have been robust in capturing mining revenue. One issue has always stood out in these mineral taxation debates and this is the reintroduction of the 2008 mining windfall tax. Though this is the case, the Zambian citizenry has not been informed of the various issues leading to its revocation. This paper tries to undertake a critical review and restructure of this tax instrument to rectify the inherent technical lapses in its design. This has been realized by treating the payable amount of this tax as a deductible expense in the income statement and by indexing the trigger prices for inflation. The results of this research indicate that the restructured tax instrument has the potential of maximizing the capture of windfall gains without imposing a higher than normal average effective tax rate and marginal effective tax rate on a mining firm’s pre-tax cash flows. This in turn retains capital to the mining firm for further exploration and other mine developmental activities. However, this tax needs to be balanced with other tax instruments for greater efficiency and effectiveness in its application. Advancing this cause calls for a sound judgement on the part of policy formulators.

STRUKTURALISME, POST-STRUKTURALISME DAN NEO-STRUKTURALISME
Authors: JISH ELS
Published: December 2020

Structuralism in Europe developed in the early 1900s, mainly in France and Russian Empire, in the structural linguistics of Ferdinand de Saussure and the subsequent Prague, Moscow and Copenhagen schools of linguistics. In the late 1950s and early 1960s, when structural linguistics were facing serious challenges from the likes of Noam Chomsky and thus fading in importance, an array of scholars in the humanities borrowed Saussure's concepts for use in their respective fields of study. Structuralism in literature can provide the way to understand the culture as Rahman & Letlora (2018) stated that Language and culture are two important elements which cannot be separated each other. Language is a medium of communication to acquire the information of culture and others. Communication in daily activity especially in Indonesian tradition which include many expression and idioms in order to strengthen the tradition itself such as ‘maulid nabi’ (Rahman, 2017). Based on Rahman’s research, there is a relation between language and literature. Rahman (2020) stated that literature is an identity which referred to ethno-literature. Literature is a source of learning and entertainment for readers (Rahman, Amir P., & Tammasse, 2019). One of literary work that interesting and has important role in literary research is Shakespeare’s writing as Rahman & Weda (2019) in their research regarding linguistics deviation and rhetoric figures in Shakespeare’s selected plays.
TYPOLOGY OF SIGNS; SIGN, SIGNAL, INDEX
Authors: JISH ELS
Published: December 2020

The adoption of semiotics in Britain was influenced by its prominence in the work of the Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies (CCCS) at the University of Birmingham whilst the Centre was under the direction of the neo-Marxist sociologist Stuart Hall (director 1969-79). Although semiotics may be less central now within cultural and media studies (at least in its earlier, more structuralist form), it remains essential for anyone in the field to understand it. What individual scholars have to assess, of course, is whether and how semiotics may be useful in shedding light on any aspect of their concerns. Note that Saussure's term, 'semiology' is sometimes used to refer to the Saussurean tradition, whilst 'semiotics' sometimes refers to the Peircean tradition, but that nowadays the term 'semiotics' is more likely to be used as an umbrella term to embrace the whole field

Literature is a medium which provide knowledge and information from the writer. Language is the source of literature and also the medium to communicate with others. Communication in daily activity especially in Indonesian tradition which include many expression and idioms in order to strengthen the tradition itself such as ‘maulid nabi’ which contains prayers to our prophet (Rahman, 2017). Based on Rahman’s research, there is a relation between language and literature. Rahman (2020) stated that literature is an identity which referred to ethno-literature. Ethno-literature is an oral form which maintained by the speaker through generations. Literature is a source of learning and entertainment for readers (Rahman, Amir P., & Tammasse, 2019).

Mental health and risk-taking among refugees in Lebanon
Authors: Ruggeri Kai , Jarke Hannes , El-Zein  , Verdeli Helen , Folke Tomas
Published: December 2020

Lebanon is rapidly adapting public services meet local needs as well those of refugees from conflict regions such as Syria. However, these challenges are complicated by high volumes of individuals with poor mental health, who are also at risk of poor decision-making and may avoid use of health services due to low trust in government institutions, among other reasons.Over 700 individuals residing in Lebanon, including Syrian refugees and Palestinians from Lebanon, completed a series of measures covering decision-making with risk, mental health, and trust. Analyses focused on whether there were significant relationships between these three, and if various factors influencing those relationships could be useful for health policy in Lebanon and other regions affected by conflict-related population movement.This study finds that higher subjective well-being was associated with more risk-taking among refugees (β = 0·07, SE = 0·02, z = 4·63, p < ·01), but not among the Lebanese host population (β = -0·003, SE = 0·01, z = -0·32, p =·75). However, average subjective well-being did not significantly differ between the Lebanese host population and the refugees (absolute difference = -1·27, 95%CI = [-2·83, 0·29], on a 60-point scale), or between Syrian and Palestinian refugees (absolute difference = -1·53, 95%CI = [-4·16, 1·08]). There were moderate effects of behavioral interventions on risk-taking in terms of increased advantageous choices.There is a clear pattern of greater risk-taking for refugees with better subjective well-being. This is an important finding as greater risk-taking is associated with a number of negative health outcomes, particularly in vulnerable populations. While the behavioural interventions do show some effect on improving advantageous choice, these risk patterns are of clear interest to policymakers dealing with health and well-being of all residents in Lebanon.
Small Words That Matter: Linguistic Style and Conceptual Disorganisation in Untreated First Episode Schizophrenia
Authors: Silva Angelica , Limongi Roberto , Mackinley Michael , Palaniyappan Lena
Published: December 2020

This study aimed to shed light on the linguistic style affecting the communication-discourse in First Episode Schizophrenia (FES) by investigating the analytical thinking index in relation to clinical scores of conceptual and thought disorganization (Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale, PANSS-P2 and Thought and Language Index, TLI). By using robust Bayesian modeling, we report three major findings: (1) FES subjects showed reduced analytical thinking, exhibiting a more narrative linguistic style than healthy control (HC) subjects (Bayes factor, BF10 > 1000), despite using the same proportion of function and content words as HCs; (2) the lower the analytic thinking score, the higher the symptoms scores of conceptual disorganization (PANSS-P2, BF = 22.66) and global disorganization of thinking (TLI, BF10 = 112.73); (3) The linguistic style is a better predictor of conceptual disorganization than the cognitive measure of processing speed in schizophrenia. These findings, on the one hand, provide an objectively detectable linguistic style in schizophrenia that requires no clinical judgment; on the other hand, they provide a crucial insight into the primacy of linguistic structural disruption in clinically ascertained disorganised thinking in schizophrenia. Furthermore, PANSS-P2 and TLI disorganisation scores are notably influenced by this linguistic style, rather than cognitive deficits such as processing speed reduction. Our work contributes to an emergent body of literature on the linguistic basis of the psychopathology of schizophrenia. At an utilitarian level, this has implications for improving social and educational outcomes in this illness.
Working memory training does not improve executive functioning or fluid intelligence
Authors: Rodas Jose A. , Greene Ciara
Published: December 2020

Several studies have reported that cognitive training can lead to improvements of complex mental skills such as intelligence. However, attempts to replicate these findings have not been very successful with many studies reporting lack of transferable effects on cognitive processes unrelated to the training task. On the other hand, transfer effects on cognitive processes closely related to the training task have been more commonly reported. In this study, we investigated the effects of a frequently used working-memory training programme on fluid intelligence and specific executive functions (updating, inhibition, switching, the focus of attention, and sustained attention). We remedied common issues with previous training studies by using an active control group, using more than one instrument to assess each function, and including a larger sample size. The experimental group showed significant improvement in the training task, indicating strong practice effects. However, no evidence of training-specific transfer was found in any of the variables investigated, and we could not replicate any of the previous findings reported. Participants in both the training and control group showed post-training improvements in most of the outcome variables, suggesting that practice effects can be found even when a task is only performed twice. We conclude by discussing possible explanations for the differences between our results and those reported in prior studies, and recommend that any claims of improvement should be supported by studies capable of replicating them.
Developmental pathways between infant gestures and symbolic actions, and children’s communicative skills at age 5: Findings from the All Our Families pregnancy cohort
Authors: Morin-Lessard Elizabeth , Hentges Rochelle F. , Tough Suzanne C. , Graham Susan
Published: December 2020

Using data from the All Our Families study, a longitudinal study of 1992 mother-child dyads in Canada (47.7% female; 81.9% White), we examined the developmental pathways between infant gestures and symbolic actions and communicative skills at age 5. Communicative gestures at age 12 months (e.g., pointing, nodding head “yes”), obtained via parental report, predicted stronger general communicative skills at age 5 years. Moreover, greater use of symbolic actions (e.g., “feeding” a stuffed animal with a bottle) indirectly predicted increased communicative skills at age 5 via increased productive vocabulary at 24 months. These pathways support the hypothesis that children’s communicative skills during the transition to kindergarten emerge from a chain of developmental abilities starting with gestures and symbolic actions during infancy.
Motor coordination and strategic cooperation in joint action
Authors: LE BARS Solène , Bourgeois-Gironde Sacha , Wyart Valentin , Sari Izel , Pacherie Elisabeth , Chambon Valérian
Published: December 2020

Naturalistic joint action usually requires both motor coordination and strategic cooperation. However, these two fundamental processes have systematically been studied independently. We devised a novel collaborative task, combining different levels of motor noise with different levels of strategic noise, to determine whether sense of agency (the experience of control over an action) reflects the interplay between these low-level (motor) and high-level (strategic) processes. We also examined how dominance in motor control could influence prosocial behaviours. We found that self-agency was particularly dependent on motor cues while joint agency was particularly dependent on strategic cues. We suggest that the prime importance of strategic cues for joint agency reflects the co-representation of co-agents’ interests during the task. Furthermore, we observed a reduction of prosocial strategies in agents who exerted a dominant motor control over the joint action, showing that the strategic dimension of human interactions is also reliant on low-level motor features.
Cultural evolution of precise and consensual semantic conventions in a multiplayer gaming app
Authors: Morin Olivier , Müller Thomas Franz , Morisseau Tiffany , Winters James
Published: December 2020

The amount of information conveyed by linguistic conventions depends on their precision, yet the codes that humans and other animals use to communicate are quite ambiguous: they may map several vague meanings to the same symbol. How does semantic precision evolve, and what are the constraints that limit it? We studied the evolution of semantic conventions, in the form of variable mappings between symbols and their referents, in a multiplayer gaming app built around a referential communication game, where a sender had to indicate a colour to a receiver, using only black and white symbols. We expected that the players’ mappings between symbols and colours would grow more specific over time, precision being measured as sense entropy, through a selection process whereby precise mappings are preferentially copied. We found that players become increasingly more precise in their use of symbols over the course of their careers. This trend did not, however, result from selective copying of precise mappings. We explore the implications of this result for the study of lexical ambiguity, Zipf’s Law of Meaning, and disagreements over semantic conventions.
O możliwości odmowy przyjęcia lub pozostawienia bez rozpoznania kasacji wniesionej po upływie terminu, o którym mowa w art. 524 § 3 Kodeksu postępowania karnego

The aim of this work is to analyse Article 524, § 3 of Polish Code of Criminal Procedure and, on the basis of the systemic and functional ways of judicial interpretation, to provide the answer to the question about the possibility of refusing to accept (by the president of the court to which the cassation was submitted) or leaving unexamined (by the Supreme Court) the cassation filed against the accused after more than one year of the date on which the judgment has become final, if, at the same time, it is not even theoretically possible, in that particular case, to change the appealed judgment in favour of the accused. The view was expressed that the adoption of the proposed interpretation of this provision would contribute to a significant relief to the Supreme Court, while maintaining all procedural guarantees for the parties, which, according to the author, may be of particular importance, especially during the period of combating the effects of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.

Published: December 2020

Most models used in reservoir simulation studies are on the scale of meters to hundreds of meters. However, increasing resolution in geological measurements results in finer geological models. Simulations study of particle movements provide an alternative to conventional reservoir simulation by allowing the study of microscopic and/or macroscopic fluid flow, which is close to the scale of geological models. In this paper, the FHP-II (Frisch, Hasslacher and Pomeau - FHP) model of lattice gas automata were developed to study fluid flow in order to estimate the properties of heterogeneous porous media. Heterogeneity simulated by placing solid obstacles randomly in a two-dimensional test volume. Properties of the heterogeneous porous media were estimated by the shape, size, number of the obstacles and by the distribution of the obstacles within the volume. Results of the effects of grain sizes and shapes, and its distribution in the porous media on the tortuosity, effective porosity, permeability and displacement efficiency were obtained. An investigation of fluid flow and comparison with laboratory experiment were also presented. Reasonably good agreement between the lattice gas automata simulation and laboratory experiment results were achieved.

Mempelajari  Al-Qur`an merupakan kewajiban bagi setiap muslim, karena Al-Qur`an sebagai pedoman beragama harus difahami dengan benar. Membaca Al-Qur`an tidak seperti membaca teks yang lainnya. Dalam Al-Qur`an ada kaidah-kaidah tertentu yang apabila kaidah itu tidak digunakan maka makna Al-Qur`an tersebut akan menjadi salah. Oleh karena itu, perlu ada sebuah metode yang inovatif dalam pembelajaran Al-Qur`an, mengingat bahwa di sekolah umum pelajaran PAI hanya sekitar 2 dampai 3 jam pelajaran dalam satu minggu. SD IT Al-Ichwan merupakan salah satu sekolah yang berinovasi dengan menerapkan metode membaca Al-Qur`an melalui metode Qiroati. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui bagaimana model desain pembelajaran, proses pembelajaran, bentuk evaluasi, keunggulan, hasil pembelajaran, serta permasalahan dan solusinya dalam pembelajaran Al-Qur`an dengan metode Qiroati di SD IT Al-Ichwan.  Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dan jenis penelitiannya menggunakan metode deskriptif analitik, dengan tujuan untuk menghasilan model pembelajaran Al-Qur`an dengan menerapkan metode Qiroati untuk tingkat sekolah dasar. Teknik pengambilan data melalui observasi, wawancara dan dokumentasi. Untuk menganalisa data digunakan metode deskriptif kualitatif, yakni uraiannya berdasarkan pada gejala-gejala yang tampak. Agar hasil penilaian berjalan dengan baik, maka proses analisa data tersebut dilakukan dengan langkah-langkah reduksi data, display data dan penarikan kesimpulan.
Kaos Dakwah: Discourse of Piety, Market Islam, and Islamic Ideology
Authors: Saputra Eko
Published: December 2020

Abstract

The Islamic da'wah movement is an interesting discussion study to always be discussed. Post-Suharto 1998, the da'wah movement in Indonesia experienced very significant developments in various public spaces. Like campus, school, place of worship and social media. This is because the tap of democracy is increasingly wide open, so that da'wah actors are increasingly free to express the Islamic movement to the public space in its own way. Interestingly, the da'wah movement in Indonesia always presents a new way of how da'wah activities are applied in the daily lives of Muslims. This article wants to explore how the Islamic market-based da'wah movement is carried out by Rafa Muslim Fashion, part of the Rafa Group as the largest Islamic publication center (Jaringan Islam) in Solo. The author arguments that the Islamic market-based da'wah movement carried out by Rafa Muslim Fashion shapes the practice of piety, the Islamic market and Islamic ideology. This important article is discussed to see how Islamic market-based da'wah movements are carried out. Previously, scholars still did not discuss much about how the da'wah movement was oriented to the Islamic market. The results of this study show that the emergence of the Islamic market-based da'wah movement as an alternative to the new da'wah movement formed piety, market competition, and Islamic ideology.
