Most of marginal lands in Indonesia are in the form of acid dry land with low available P and high Al concentrations. Development of tolerant rice varieties to P deficiency and Al toxicity is one way to increase rice production. This study aimed to select BC3F1-Pup1+Alt genotypes from three crosses based on foreground and background markers. This research was conducted at the Indonesian Center for Agricultural Biotechnology and Genetic Resources Research and Development, Bogor, from August to December 2015. The materials used were 300 genotypes of BC3F1 Dodokan-Pup1+Alt, BC3F1 Situ Bagendit-Pup1+Alt, BC3F1 Batur-Pup1+Alt, and the parents. The research included selection in modified Yoshida’s nutrient solutions (0.5 ppm P dan 60 ppm Al) followed by foreground selection and background selection. Selection using Yoshida’s nutrient solution resulted in 150 genotypes with longer root than the recipient parent in each of the BC3F1 populations. Selection with foreground markers using markers RM1361 and RM12031 produced 85 genotypes of BC3F1 Dodokan-Pup1+Alt (56.6%), 105 genotypes of BC3F1 Situ Bagendit-Pup1+Alt (70%), and 77 genotypes of BC3F1 Batur-Pup1+Alt (51.33%). Selection using background markers revealed that genotype number 116 (BC3F1 Dodokan-Pup1+Alt), number 2 (BC3F1 Situ Bagendit-Pup1+Alt), and number 129 (BC3F1 Batur-Pup1+Alt) were the best genotypes with percentage of parent recovery of 95%, 90%, and 90.5%, respectively. These three genotypes were verified to have Alt loci and had the largest genetic proportion of restoring parents. Keywords: Alt, background markers, foreground markers, Pup1, upland rice

Improvement of chilli’s quantitative traits requires several stages of breeding program, one of these is selection stage. The objective of this study was to obtain the information concerning the means and ranges of some quantitative characters, inbreeding depression, heritability estimates, and response to selection from six generations derived from crossing two parents of chili peppers. Materials used were IPB C160 (female), IPB C291 (male) as parents, F2, F3, F4, F5, and F6 derived from crossing of these parents with a total number of 630 plants. Results from this study showed that the mean valuesbetween the generations F2 to F6 showed an increase in the observed character except of harvesting time. The highest value of inbreeding depression for harvest time, weight per fruit, and fruit length was found in F5 generation. The highest value of inbreeding depression for fruit weight per plant, number of fruit per plant, and fruit weight was found in F6 generation, and for fruit diameter was found in F4 generation. The narrow-sense heritability estimates were classified into low to moderate criteria. In general, declined responses to selection for quantitative characters in the six generations of chili were observed.Keywords: advance selection, heritability, inbreeding depression, means value

Determination of main parameters for FPSOs at early design stages
Authors: Berezhnoy Konstantin
Published: May 2019

In ship design theory, determination of displacement at early design stages goes hand-in-hand with determination of utilization coefficient, i.e. the ratio between the ship’s main parameter and her full displacement. The database of utilization coefficients
for sea-going carrier ships is constantly enlarged, however, for FPSOs these coefficients have never been determined before. Output data of this study are utilization coefficients for FPSOs that can be used to determine their overall weight and size at early design stages.

Body’s height and mass measurement usually are measured with a different instrument without a knowledge to know the ideal body mass index (BMI). Ideal BMI is related to our health condition especially for people who do exercise. Usually people just guess the BMI from a visual condition that sometime give a false measurement. This paper proposes a device that can measured ideal BMI based on Brocha method based on microcontroller. The body’s height will be measured using ultrasonic sensor while the body’s mass will be measured with a load cell. The results show that the proposed device can predict the BMI well. The height measurement has a successful rate of 80%.

Pediatrik Populasyonda Foramen Mandibulae Lokalizasyonunun Üç Boyutlu Bilgisayarlı Tomografi İle Değerlendirilmesi
Authors: ERYİĞİT Özlem , TURAMANLAR Ozan , ÜNAL Mehmet , KAÇAR Emre
Published: May 2019

Çalışmamızın amacı
pediatrik populasyonda canlı kişilerde üç boyutlu bilgisayarlı tomografi
kullanarak foraman mandibulae’nın lokalizasyonunu yaş, cinsiyet ve yerleşimine
(sağ/sol) göre değerlendirmektir. Bu çalışmaya herhangi bir nedenle kraniyal
bilgisayarlı tomografisi çekilmiş 102 pediatrik hasta dahil edildi. İncelenen
parametrelerin ortalamaları ve standart sapmaları belirlendi. Elde edilen
verilerin cinsiyet (kız/erkek) ve bölge (sağ/sol) karşılaştırması istatistiksel
olarak değerlendirildi ve parametrelerin yaşa bağlı korelasyonuna bakıldı.
Çalışmamızda foramen mandibulae ile incisura mandibula arasındaki uzaklık
ortalama 13,4±2,2 mm olarak, mandibulanın alt kenarı ile incisura mandibula
arasındaki uzaklık 34,8±4,4 mm, foramen mandibulae ile ramus’un arka kenarına
olan transvers mesafe 9,1±1,8 mm, mandibulanın anteroposterior çapı 24±2,4 mm
bulundu. Kız – erkek ve sağ-sol karşılaştırmasında anlamlı bir fark yoktu. Yaş
ile ölçümler arasında pozitif yönde korelasyon bulundu. Çalışmamızda elde
edilen bilgileri literatür bilgisi ile karşılaştırdığımızda birçok bulgunun
birbirine benzer olduğu ancak bazı ölçümlerde farklılıklar olduğu gözlemlenmektedir.
Bu farklılıklar, diğer çalışmaların kuru kemiklerde ve panoramik
radyografilerde yapılmış olması, farklı yaş gruplarında çalışılmış olunması,
ölçüm yöntemlerinin farklı olmasından ve canlı üzerinde bilgisayarlı tomografi
ile yapılan çalışmaların az olmasından kaynaklanmaktadır. Foramen mandibulae’da
yaşla ilgili belirli değişiklikler vardır ve bu farklılıkları doğrulamak için
daha çok anatomik çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır. Pediatrik populasyonda foramen mandibulae
lokalizasyonun tam olarak bilinmesi yapılacak olan mandibular anestezilerde
anestezik komplikasyonların azaltılması açısından büyük önem arz etmektedir.

Powdered activated carbon (PAC) is an economical sorbent for removing micropollutants from water, but it generates hazardous dust that is flammable and a respiration hazard. Additionally, the fine particles of PAC can cake and block filters and membranes, complicating its use in continuous processes. In this study, we present a sulfur polymer support for PAC that overcomes these problems. The blend of the sulfur polymer and PAC generates low dust and it does not block filters. The utility of the sorbent is demonstrated in the remediation of water contaminated with perfluorinated alkyl substances (PFASs)—persistent micropollutants that currently threaten water safety worldwide. Fundamental discoveries of PFAS self-assembly are reported, as well as testing on field samples.

Cellular response upon proliferation in the presence of an active mitotic checkpoint

Published: May 2019

Eukaryotic cells treated with microtubule-targeting agents activate the spindle assembly checkpoint to arrest in mitosis and prevent chromosome mis-segregation. A fraction of mitotically arrested cells overcomes the block and proliferates even under persistent checkpoint-activating conditions. Here, we asked what allows proliferation in such unfavourable conditions. We report that yeast cells are delayed in mitosis at each division, implying that their spindle assembly checkpoint remains responsive. The arrest causes their cell cycle to be elongated and results in a size increase. Growth saturates at mitosis and correlates with the repression of various factors involved in translation. Contrary to unperturbed cells, growth of cells with an active checkpoint requires Cdh1. This peculiar cell cycle correlates with global changes in protein expression whose signatures partly overlap with the environmental stress response. Hence, cells dividing with an active checkpoint develop recognisable specific traits that allow them to successfully complete cell division notwithstanding a constant mitotic checkpoint arrest. These properties distinguish them from unperturbed cells. Our observation may have implications for the identification of new therapeutic windows and targets in tumors.

Resumo

Esta pesquisa, quantitativa, teve por objetivo analisar as Atividades de Produção Oral (APOs) que compõem duas coleções de Livro Didático (LD) de inglês como LE para o ensino médio da rede pública no Brasil, English for all e Globetrekker, a fim de verificar os tipos de APOs que as duas coleções apresentavam e qual grau de comunicabilidade as duas coleções possuíam, no sentido de perceber qual delas poderia oferecer um melhor desenvolvimento da habilidade oral. A metodologia utilizada encontra-se nos moldes da pesquisa quantitativa, utilizando regra de três simples e cálculos de porcentagem. O suporte teórico fundamenta-se em autores como Littlewood (2004); Chang e Lee (2011); Lajolo (1996); Coracine (1999); Bergsleithner (2009); Penny (1991); Ellis (2003); Nunan (1989) entre outros. Os resultados apontaram que a coleção English for all apresenta um grau de comunicabilidade maior do que a coleção Globetrekker, revelando que a primeira coleção configura-se como mais comunicativa por propor APO com o foco da instrução na forma que se caracterizaram mais como tarefas comunicativas do que exercícios mecanizados e que conduzem os aprendizes a usar a língua com mais atenção ao significado, podendo possibilitar aos aprendizes um melhor desenvolvimento da habilidade oral.

English as a foreign language textbooks: an analysis of speaking activities

Abstract

This quantitative research aimed to analyze oral production activities of two English textbook collections of EFL in Public High School in Brazil, English for all and Globetrekker, in order to verify the types of OPA that both collections presented and the degree of communicability they had in order to verify which one could provide a better development of the oral skill. The methodology adopted was quantitative, using rule of three and calculation of percentage. The theoretical support is based on some authors such as Littlewood (2004); Chang; Lee (2011); Lajolo (1996); Coracine (1999); Bergsleithner (2009); Penny (1991); Ellis (2003); Nunan (1989) among others. The results showed that one of the collections has a higher degree of communicability than the other, revealing that this collection seems to be more communicative because it proposes OPA with the main focus of instruction on form, that is more like characterized as communicative tasks than mechanized exercises which can lead learners to use the language with more attention to the meaning without neglecting aspects of language forms, allowing learners to be able to better develop the oral skill.

O papel do professor de línguas como um agente interculturalista e humanizador em um contexto de ensino de português língua estrangeira: implicações para a formação docente
Authors: Kfouri-Kaneoya Marta Lúcia
Published: May 2019

Resumo

Neste artigo, discutimos a formação de professoras de línguas atuantes em um projeto de extensão de português língua estrangeira (PLE), oferecido a estrangeiros inseridos em um contexto brasileiro de imersão acadêmica. Propomo-nos a investigar o papel do professor de línguas, a partir de uma diretriz comunicativo-humanizadora de ensino/aprendizagem. Os dados da pesquisa constituem-se de reuniões pedagógicas gravadas, realizadas semanalmente entre a coordenadora e professores do projeto, no sentido de se analisar o processo de reflexão docente em busca da promoção de uma prática humanizadora em sala de aula, do bem-estar, da valorização de uma comunicação criativa, do esclarecimento dos choques culturais e do desenvolvimento de uma competência linguístico-cultural nos estrangeiros aprendizes de PLE. Tais reuniões são tomadas como ambiente potencial para a formação inicial docente crítico-humanizadora de professoras de PLE, já que sua formação acadêmica não contemplou a possibilidade de atuarem no ensino de sua língua materna como estrangeira. Os resultados também sugerem que as práticas discursivas das professoras podem, de fato, promover um ambiente humanizador de ensino/aprendizagem de PLE.

Abstract

In this article, we discuss the education process of language teachers in a Portuguese as a foreign language (PFL) institutional project, which is offered to foreigner students in a Brazilian context of academic immersion. We aim at investigating the role of language teachers from a communicative and humanizing teaching and learning approach. The research data are constituted by the recordings of pedagogical meetings between the coordinator and the teachers from the project, in order to analyze the teachers’ reflective process in search of promoting some aspects such as a humanizing practice, the students’ well-being, the valorization of creative communication, the comprehension of intercultural impacts and the linguistic and cultural development of foreign students’ competence in classroom. Such meetings are held as a potential environment to a critical and humanizing PFL teachers education process, since they do not have this kind of education during their under graduation course. The results also suggest that the PFL teachers’ discursive practice can, indeed, promotes a humanizing PFL teaching and learning environment.

Intelligibility research in Brazil: empirical findings and methodological issues
Authors: Gonçalves Alison Roberto , Silveira Rosane
Published: May 2019

Abstract

The current paper addresses intelligibility, a dimension used to assess second language speech, which has also been proposed as one of the goals in pronunciation instruction. Studies carried out on this construct in Brazil are revisited (BECKER, 2013; CRUZ, 2005; 2006; 2008, 2012a, 2012b; CRUZ; PEREIRA, 2006; GONÇALVES, 2014; REIS; CRUZ, 2010; RIELLA, 2013; SCHADECH, 2013), and their main findings are discussed taking into account Jenkins’ (2002) Lingua Franca core. Furthermore, methodological issues are discussed, pointing out the different foci of the studies conducted in Brazil, the variables examined by the Brazilian studies at present, and the myriad of variables contemplated by international studies that still need investigation in the Brazilian context. Some of these variables are related to the speaker/listener or are of linguistic nature (e.g., L2 proficiency, accent familiarity, lexical frequency), all of which could help us to understand the intelligibility construct. Finally, the paper brings concluding remarks about the investigation of intelligibility and possible implications for the classroom and the research realms.

Published: May 2019

Resumo

O objetivo deste artigo é refletir acerca do papel do inglês na educação brasileira contemporânea. O estudo revisa políticas linguísticas e de internacionalização sugerindo que há uma tensão entre o papel formador e o papel instrumental da língua inglesa na educação atual. A fim de subsidiar a reflexão proposta, o estudo analisa dados de dois questionários com perguntas relacionadas ao ensino e à aprendizagem de línguas estrangeiras no Brasil. Utilizou-se uma metodologia híbrida analisando dados quantitativos e qualitativos dos questionários respondidos por 65 participantes, sendo 43 estudantes do ensino médio de uma comunidade capixaba de imigrantes pomeranos e 22 professores de inglês. A análise dos questionários sugere que os brasileiros querem aprender inglês como língua estrangeira e veem esse idioma como tendo status de língua internacional. Os resultados mostram que a maior diferença entre o ensino desse idioma no Brasil está nos seus papeis ora formador (na educação básica) ora instrumental (nos cursos livres e programas de internacionalização), confirmando a hipótese levantada na análise das políticas linguísticas de que há uma tensão entre os papeis formador e instrumental do inglês na educação brasileira.

Abstract

This paper aims at reflecting on the role of English in contemporary Brazilian education. The study reviews language and internationalization policies suggesting that there is a tension between the formative role and the instrumental role of English in education today. In order to subsidize the proposed reflection, the study analyzes data from two questionnaires with questions related to teaching and learning foreign languages in Brazil. A hybrid methodology was used to analyze quantitative and qualitative data from the questionnaires answered by 65 participants of whom 43 were high school students from a community with Pomeranian immigrants and 22 were English teachers. The analysis of the questionnaires suggests that Brazilians want to learn English as a foreign language and see that language as having the status of an international language. Results show that the main difference between the teaching of this language in Brazil is related to its formative role (in basic education) and its instrumental role (in private language institutes and international programs), confirming the hypothesis raised in the analysis of language policies that there is a tension between the formative and instrumental roles of English in Brazilian education.

Language motivation and attitudes: a study with English for Academic Purposes learners
Authors: Cerqueira Flavia Azeredo , Badger Shellwyn
Published: May 2019

Abstract

The study investigates English for Academic Purposes (EAP) course learners’ motivation within the L2 Motivational Self System Framework (cf. DÖRNYEI; CLÉMENT, 2001; DÖRNYEI, 2005; CSIZÉR; DÖRNYEI, 2005b) and their achievement. The framework consists of three components, of which the ideal L2 self is the most important in the maintenance of motivation.  Brazilian learners of EAP, students of a federal university in Belo Horizonte, participated in the study. The data was collected by means of questionnaires about attitude and motivation towards the L2, L2 learning and EAP, and also the ethnicity and socioeconomic backgrounds of learners. The EAP course as a program component of a broader, federal Brazilian policy with both national and international stakeholders was also examined. The results suggest that the learners possess a well-established ideal L2 self.  The variables measured in this project presented a positive tendency towards L2 motivation. This confirms that the participants were motivated to learn the L2 language, in this case English.  The socioeconomic and ethnic variables indicate that whites from a middle-class background are the majority group on campus. Recommendations for further research in L2 motivation and policy studies conclude the paper.

Keywords: EAP. Educational policy. International education. L2 motivational self system. Language attitudes. L2 learning.

A escolha do livro didático de língua estrangeira do Programa Nacional do Livro Didático
Authors: Da Silva Larissa Goulart , Sarmento Simone
Published: May 2019

Resumo

Este trabalho tem por objetivo investigar os critérios utilizados pelos professores de Língua Estrangeira das escolas públicas para selecionar o livro didático (LD) do Programa Nacional do Livro Didático (PNLD). O PNLD abrange o componente curricular de Língua Estrangeira desde 2011. Estudos anteriores (SARMENTO; SILVA, 2012; 2013) investigaram aspectos relacionados ao PNLD nas escolas, sem, contudo, detalhar o processo de escolha realizado pelos professores. Acreditamos que esta pesquisa seja relevante para alguns segmentos: 1) os professores, que poderão refletir sobre sua prática; 2) as editoras, que poderão repensar a divulgação dos seus materiais; 3) o próprio PNLD como forma de acompanhar o desenvolvimento do programa nas escolas. Foram analisados questionários realizados com professores de inglês e espanhol. Concluiu-se que a maioria dos professores tem realizado uma seleção impressionista (CUNNINGSWORTH, 1995) do LD devido à falta de tempo para se dedicar a uma avaliação criteriosa e ao desconhecimento dos recursos disponíveis para auxiliar na escolha, como, por exemplo, o Guia do Livro Didático.

Abstract

This paper aims to investigate the criteria used by foreign language teachers in public schools to choose the textbook (LD) from the National Textbook Program (PNLD). The PNLD has encompassed foreign languages since 2011. Previous studies (SARMENTO; SILVA, 2012; 2013) have investigated aspects related to the use of PNLD in schools; however, these studies did not investigate textbook choice. We believe this research is relevant to the: 1) teachers who will be able to reflect on their own practice; 2) publishers who may rethink the advertising of materials; 3) PNLD as a way to monitor the development of the program in schools. We analyzed questionnaires conducted with foreign language teachers and concluded that most teachers have chosen a textbook following an impressionistic fashion (CUNNINGSWORTH, 1995) due to lack of time for evaluation and of knowledge about the resources available to assist in their choice as, for example, the textbook guide.

Published: May 2019

Resumo

O presente artigo visa analisar o diálogo intercultural que ocorre em uma sala de aula de língua inglesa de uma escola pública da Rede Municipal de Ensino de Goiânia, capital do Estado de Goiás. Por se tratar de um estudo de cunho etnográfico, foram utilizadas as seguintes técnicas de geração de dados: a observação-participante, anotações de campo e gravações em vídeo. A partir desses instrumentos, procuramos, por meio da análise dos domínios culturais sugerida por Spradley (1980), interpretar os sentidos e os valores que os participantes atribuem às suas ações e às ações dos outros, como questionam seus papéis sociais e interpretam valores macroculturais de acordo com a sua própria microcultura. A análise dos dados demonstrou que o diálogo intercultural entre professora e alunos ocorre via embates. Também foi possível identificar os diferentes significados culturais que a sala de aula tem para a professora e para os alunos.

Abstract

This article discusses the intercultural dialogue between an English teacher and her students from a public school in Goiânia. It is a qualitative study based on ethnography in which the following instruments of generating data were used: participant observation, field notes and video recording. All the data are discussed following the ethnographic research directions and the domain analyses theory suggested by Spradley (1980).  Through the cultural domains, it was possible to identify how the participants interpret theirs and others’ actions, how they question their social roles and interpret some macrocultural values according to their own microculture. The data analyses demonstrated how  the intercultural dialogue between the teacher and her students is conflicted. In addition, it was possible to identify the different cultural meanings teacher and students give to the classroom.

Com base na compreensão da educação continuada de professores de línguas como um espaço propício para a (re)construção contínua de saberes relacionados ao trabalho docente e para (res)significação de suas representações sociais, neste trabalho temos por objetivos analisar representações dos professores envolvidos em um curso de formação continuada sobre o uso de novas tecnologias no ensino de inglês na Educação Básica e investigar indícios de (re)constituição identitária presentes em textos escritos (relatos de experiência). Neste trabalho são analisados os elementos contextuais mais emergentes, o levantamento do conteúdo temático (BULEA, 2010) e alguns elementos linguísticos que se sobressaem nos dados (KERBRAT-ORECCHIONI, 1980; BRONCKART, 2009). Os resultados indicam as dificuldades dos professores em relação ao uso de ferramentas tecnológicas bem como as percepções desses participantes em relação à proposta de formação continuada e do impacto dessa formação em seu desenvolvimento profissional.

Abstract

Continuing teacher education can be seen as a favorable space for teachers to (re)construct teaching-related knowledge and to (re)signify their social representations. Drawing from that, in this article, we aim to analyze teachers’ representations of new technologies during their engagement in a continuing education course for the teaching of English for basic education and to investigate traces of their identity (re)constitution present in written texts (experience reports). Hence, in this paper, we analyze the contextual elements, the themes (BULEA, 2010) and some linguistic elements emerging from the data (KERBRAT-ORECCHIONI, 1980; BRONCKART, 2009).  The results point at teachers’ difficulties to deal with technological tools as well as their perceptions upon the continuing education proposal and its impact in their professional development.

A produção de jogos sérios interdisciplinares na universidade: novos desafios e possibilidades para o ensino da linguagem
Authors: Reis Susana Cristina dos , Gomes Adilson Fernandes
Published: May 2019

Resumo

O ensino da linguagem na contemporaneidade tem sido amplamente desafiado pelo uso de tecnologias digitais na prática docente, principalmente pelas redes sociais e pelos jogos digitais, conforme apontam estudos recentes na área de Linguística Aplicada e Educação. Esses recursos dão acesso às principais atividades sociais realizadas na internet, seja para entretenimento seja para a produção de conhecimento. Assim, envolver alunos em formação inicial em projetos de pesquisa interdisciplinar, no processo de investigação e desenvolvimento de jogos online para o ensino de línguas é urgente, haja vista a necessidade de compreendermos os benefícios dessa prática e como tais recursos podem ser explorados a favor da aprendizagem em sala de aula. Neste trabalho buscamos estabelecer associações entre teoria e prática ao envolver os participantes no design de jogos educacionais, além de vivenciarmos os benefícios dessa associação na formação acadêmica dos integrantes do projeto. Resultados apontam que o desenvolvimento de um projeto dessa natureza promove tanto o letramento digital dos alunos participantes quanto os qualificam como desenvolvedores de conteúdos digitais, técnica ou pedagogicamente para o uso de jogos em sala de aula.

Developing interdisciplinary serious games at university: new challenges and possibilities to language teaching 

 

Abstract

The teaching of language in the contemporary world has been widely challenged by the use of digital technologies in the teaching practice, mainly by social networks and digital games, according to recent studies in the field of Applied Linguistics and Education. These resources provide access to main social activities carried out on the Internet, either for entertainment or for the production of knowledge. Thus, to involve undergraduate students in an interdisciplinary research project in the process of investigating and developing digital games for teaching languages is urgent, due to the necessity of understanding the benefits of this practice and how there resources may be explored in favor of learning languages within the classroom. In this paper, we aims at establishing connections between theory and practice by developing educational games. Moreover, we experience the benefits of these connections in initial teacher education. Results show that the development of such project promotes both digital literacy of its members by qualifying them as developers of digital content and pedagogically by using digital games in the classroom.

Linguistic Analysis as class practice: teaching/learning verbs in the elementary school

Abstract

This paper aims to show how the grammatical category of the verb is presented in a coursebook, prepared by Etapa Educational Group, for the 4th year of Primary Education in Brazil. In order to do that, we make the analysis of some activities in order to understand if the activities comprise epilinguistic features or if they are simply reproductions of meta-linguistic exercises. The text is organized in three sections: the discussion about teaching grammar; the focus on the category of verbs; and the analysis of some activities selected as corpus, combined with the here proposed reflective practice  known as Linguistic Analysis.

Abstract

This article aims to address issues of discourse and power relations in the (re) construction of the professional identity of language teachers in a community of practice in a virtual environment, considering the transience, complexity and dynamics of the investigated object. This is a qualitative ethnographic research study, which presents the methodological approach of a case study involving two student teachers and a teacher educator. The results show power positions in the interactions of the participants, which justifies the need for a thematic approach to this complex process of (re) construction of identity in undergraduate courses in order to more significantly contribute to the reflective and identity formation of future professionals in Modern Languages and Literature Courses.
