Authors: Raguindin Princess Zarla J. , Ping Li Yan , Duereh Fadlee , Lising Ruby Leah S.
Published: April 2020

After more than two decades of the Salamanca Statement, discrimination and marginalization still exist. There is a need to implement inclusion to promote educational accessibility, quality, and equity for all to combat exclusion. As a result, inclusion challenged educational systems, especially teachers who are its primary implementers. Understanding the significant role of teachers in the parlance of the inclusive agenda is an essential area of inquiry; however, relatively less is known about it. This paper addresses the chasm by looking more profoundly into the teachers’ skills and dispositions about inclusion. Through a cross-sectional survey, this paper examined and compared the Filipino and Thai in-service teachers’ efficacy and attitudes about inclusion and its association with their intentions for inclusive practices. Data revealed that Filipino teachers have a generally higher level of positive attitudes, efficacy, and intentions for inclusive practices than their Thai counterparts. Also, there is a significant and positive correlation between the respondents’ attitudes, efficacy, and intentions for inclusive practices. Considering the historical and cultural contexts, the results of the study construed a deeper understanding of the teachers’ inclusive practices. Insights gathered from the study are instrumental in the examination and understanding of the teachers’ role in the inclusive agenda.

Online counseling is a mental health intervention between the counselee and the counselor using digital technologies computers or smartphones. A growing number of counselors have been providing counseling via the Internet. However, there are mixed findings regarding the effectiveness of online counseling when compared traditional face-to-face counseling and other modalities. Thus, the main purpose of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of online individual counseling compared to face-to-face counseling, and a control group regarding subjective well-being. To that end, a total of 60 college students were assigned to one of the three groups (21 online, 24 face-to-face, and 15 control). The instruments of the study were the Satisfaction with Life Scale, the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule, and the Brief Symptom Inventory. In order to examine the effectiveness of online counseling comparing to face-to-face counseling and control group, Mixed design (split-plot) ANOVA was employed. The findings of mixed ANOVA revealed that there was no significant interaction effect for the subjective well-being of the participants in different groups indicating that the three groups did not differ regarding subjective well-being scores measured over three times (pre-test, post-test, and follow-up). Nevertheless, the main effect for the group was significant indicating that the scores of the participants in the face-to-face counseling group regarding positive and negative affect changed significantly. Findings and implications were discussed regarding the relevant literature and some suggestions were offered.

Authors: Ye Yuping , Chang Hongguang , Song Zhan , Zhao Juan
Published: April 2020

3D real-time acquisition plays a vital role in computer graphics and computer vision. In this paper, we present a dynamic IR structured light sensing system with high resolution and accuracy for real-time 3D scanning. We adopt the Gray code combined with stripe shifting as our 3D acquisition’s coding strategy and parallelize the algorithm via the GPU in our IR 3D scanning system. Our built-up system can capture dense and high-precision 3D model sequences with a speed of 29 Hz. Furthermore, we propose a practical calibration method to obtain accurate calibration parameters for our system. Finally, various experiments are performed to verify the feasibility and accuracy of our proposed IR structured light sensing system.

cladded silicon photonic phase shifter with very small switching length for compact photonic integrated circuits (PICs) is proposed. The proposed design is based on the choice of a waveguide core with suitably slanted sidewalls in order to favor the desired polarization of ferroelectric cladding and to make guided modes spread toward the ferroelectric cladding with the consequence of further reduction in switching length compared to the conventional (rectangular core) structure. The proposed design also gives the additional benefit of having the identical switching length for both TE and TM modes with the same configuration. These results offer a viable strategy to realize compact non-volatile phase shifters for reconfigurable and programmable PICs.
End-to-end URLLC slicing based on packet duplication in 5G optical transport networks
Authors: Li Yajie , Li Jun , Zhao Yongli , Zhang Jie
Published: April 2020

With the stringent requirements of high reliability and low latency, ultra-reliable low latency communications (URLLCs) are one of three typical services in the fifth generation of mobile network (5G) paradigm. The packet duplication (PD) technique has been proposed as a promising solution to satisfy the extreme requirements of URLLC services. However, the benefit of PD comes at the cost of doubling resource usage. This paper investigates how to efficiently perform end-to-end URLLC slicing based on PD in 5G optical transport networks. Two heuristic algorithms are proposed, including PD-based slicing with wavelength isolation (PDS-WI) and PD-based slicing with link isolation (PDS-LI). The target of this paper is to maximize the number of accommodated URLLC slices by optimizing the allocation of heterogenous resources. The time complexity of these two algorithms is analyzed in detail. With dynamic slice requests, simulations are performed to evaluate and compare their performance in terms of slice blocking probability and resource usage. Meanwhile, two different network scenarios are considered in simulation. Simulation results indicate that PDS-WI outperforms PDS-LI by accommodating more URLLC slices.
Benchmarking photon number resolving detectors
Authors: Provazník Jan , Lachman Lukáš , Filip Radim , Marek Petr
Published: April 2020

Photon number resolving detectors are the ultimate measurement of quantum optics, which is the reason why developing the technology is getting significant attention in recent years. With this arises the question of how to evaluate the performance of the detectors. We suggest that performance of a photon number detector can be evaluated by comparing it to a multiplex of on-off detectors in a practical scenario: conditional preparation of a photon number state. Here, both the quality of the prepared state and the probability of the preparation are limited by the number of on-off detectors in the multiplex, which allows us to set benchmarks that can be achieved or surpassed by the photon number resolving detectors.

Published: April 2020

Stimulated Raman spectroscopy has become a powerful tool to study the spatiodynamics of molecular bonds with high sensitivity, resolution, and speed. However, the sensitivity and speed of state-of-the-art stimulated Raman scattering spectroscopy are currently limited by the shot-noise of the light beam probing the Raman process. Here, we demonstrate in a proof-of-principle experiment an enhancement of the sensitivity of continuous-wave stimulated Raman spectroscopy by reducing the quantum noise of the probing light below the shot-noise limit by means of amplitude squeezed states of light.

with squeezed states, we demonstrate a quantum enhancement of the stimulated Raman signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 3.60 dB relative to the shot-noise limited SNR. Our proof-of-concept demonstration of quantum-enhanced continuous-wave Raman spectroscopy paves the way for more elaborate demonstrations using state-of-the-art stimulated Raman scattering microscopes, and thus constitutes the very first step towards a new generation of Raman microscopes, where weak Raman transitions can be imaged without the use of markers or an increase in the total optical power.

Published: April 2020

Complete characterization of states and processes that occur within quantum devices is crucial for understanding and testing their potential to outperform classical technologies for communications and computing. However, solving this task with current state-of-the-art techniques becomes unwieldy for large and complex quantum systems. Here we realize and experimentally demonstrate a method for complete characterization of a quantum harmonic oscillator based on an artificial neural network known as the restricted Boltzmann machine. We apply the method to optical homodyne tomography and show it to allow full estimation of quantum states based on a smaller amount of experimental data compared to state-of-the-art methods. We link this advantage to reduced overfitting. Although our experiment is in the optical domain, our method provides a way of exploring quantum resources in a broad class of large-scale physical systems, such as superconducting circuits, atomic and molecular ensembles, and optomechanical systems.
Prospects for photon-pair generation using silicon microring resonators with two photon absorption and free carrier absorption
Authors: Ma Chaoxuan , Mookherjea Shayan
Published: April 2020

Silicon microring resonators are being recently used for high-brightness and efficient photon-pair generation at telecommunication wavelengths. Here, based on detailed theoretical and numerical modeling, we study the impact on pair generation of increasing the optical pump power, which generally causes nonlinear impairments such as free-carrier and two-photon absorption in silicon micro-resonators. Contrary to expectation, the pair generation properties of such devices may seem to be preserved at increasing pump powers, although not better than at a moderate pump power. These results suggest that silicon microrings can be used for pair generation over a wide range of pump powers, which may benefit applications in remotely pumped architectures, where the pump level might not be known a priori.

Published: April 2020

Background and Aim: Seagrasses are an excellent and potential bioresource to discover new natural bioactive compounds such as antioxidants that have beneficial effects on health. Natural antioxidants have many functions in biological systems, primarily for defense against oxidation which produces free radicals in food, chemicals, and living systems. This study aimed to discover new natural antioxidant agents, Enhalus acoroides (L.f.) Royle was evaluated for phytochemical constituents and the antioxidant activity against superoxide dismutase (SOD) was assessed.

Materials and Methods: Sample specimens of E. acoroides (L.f.) Royle collected from two different areas, Manembo- Nembo, Bitung (SG-A) and Bahoi, Likupang Barat (SG-B) waters, were extracted with methanol and solutions were prepared in a concentration series.

Results: Extracts of the seagrass E. acoroides (L.f.) Royle cultivated in different areas have different phytochemical constituents and SOD activities. The secondary metabolites of phenols, flavonoids, and steroids contained in the ethyl acetic extracts of E. acoroides were linearly correlated with their antioxidant activity, which exhibited an IC50 of 7 ppm.

Conclusion: E. acoroides (L.f.) Royle samples cultivated in the two areas contained different phytochemical constituent profiles, indicating an effect of environmental factors, and both can be used as potential natural sources of antioxidant compounds.

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is a fuel that is currently widely used by the community in meeting their daily needs. Safety in the use of LPG) is one of the important aspects for Indonesian people both at home, eating-places, tourist attractions, campuses and other places that use LPG. Fires often occur caused by LPG leaks that are not realized by the owner and the people around him, causing fires. The fire caused by gas leakage not only harms the owner but also people who are not far from the fire. From these problems, the authors make a design of cloud computing-based detection system of gas leak using a microcontroller NodeMCU Esp8266 that can provide notifications via smartphone in case of fire and automatically do the first treatment by turning on the exhaust. Notifications sent via the smartphone appear not only when opening the application, but also when it does not open the application.

Using global observation protocols to inform research on teaching effectiveness and school improvement: Strengths and emerging limitations
Authors: Kelly Sean , Bringe Robert , Aucejo Esteban , Cooley Fruehwirth Jane
Published: April 2020

An essential feature of many modern teacher observation protocols is their “global” approach to measuring instruction. Global protocols provide a summary evaluation of multiple domains of instruction from observers’ overall review of classroom processes.  Although these protocols have demonstrated strengths, including their comprehensiveness and advanced state of development, in this analysis we argue that global protocols also have inherent limitations affecting both research use and applied school improvement efforts.  Analyzing the Measures of Effective Teaching study data, we interrogate a set of five potential limitations of global protocols.  We conclude by discussing fine-grained measures of instruction, including tools that rely on automated methods of observation, as an alternative with the potential to overcome many of the fundamental limitations of global protocols.
Entangled educator evaluation apparatuses: Contextual influences on new policies
Authors: Malloy Jake
Published: April 2020

Drawing on an actor-network articulation of evaluation theory, this article examines the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction’s transition from a punitive teacher evaluation model to a promising new development and support model, which focuses on teacher growth and environmental adjustments. Supported by dozens of interviews and observations of teachers, school and district administrators, support staff, and regional and state education organization employees, the article explains how material, discursive, and affective entanglements within and outside the evaluation apparatus constrained the realization of the new growth model of teacher evaluation. Actor-network evaluation provides a new articulation of evaluation contextualization that provides insight into why some promising changes may run out of steam.
Improving instructional practice through peer observation and feedback: A review of the literature
Authors: Ridge Brady L. , Lavigne Alyson L.
Published: April 2020

The Every Student Succeeds Act provides an opportunity for policymakers and researchers to revisit what is known about effective teacher evaluation practices to make better-informed decisions moving forward. Principals—responsible for implementing new teacher evaluation reforms and accommodating the demands to spend more time observing and providing feedback to teachers—are overworked. They have little time to provide high-quality feedback, and may lack important content-based expertise. With these considerations in mind, we explore the role of peer observation and feedback as a vehicle to move beyond high-stakes evaluation and re-center efforts on instructional improvement. Our systematic review of extant literature (n = 38 documents, 92% peer-reviewed empirical articles) indicates that peer observation and feedback is a promising practice for instructional improvement, but one that lacks sufficient evidence. Policy, thus, can encourage innovation and research around this practice so that peer observation and feedback models can be piloted and the most effective established, as well as strategies to tackle the biggest barriers schools, particularly U.S. schools face in implementing such a practice—time.
Teacher accountability, datafication and evaluation: A case for reimagining schooling
Authors: Holloway Jessica
Published: April 2020

The purpose of this commentary is to push the boundaries (real and perceived) of how we think about teacher accountability, education and the purpose of schooling in contemporary times. It takes as a starting point a view that recent changes to the Every Student Succeeds Act does little to shift the underpinning logics of high-stakes teacher accountability that ultimately threaten the stability and adaptability of public schools. Building from this presumption, it explores more universal features of contemporary schooling practices (e.g., standardization, datafication and evaluation) that undermine teacher expertise, autonomy and professional discretion. The purpose is to provide a new lens for thinking about the role of education and to radically disrupt the ‘norms’ we have come to accept as necessary features of modern schooling.  Ultimately, it serves as a thought experiment to provide some space for imagining new possibilities and thinking “outside of” the traditional accountability “box”.

Social movements fighting for the inclusion of people with disabilities have propelled a change in posture regarding moral and ethical values towards persons with disabilities. Inclusion is the fruit of strenuous social fights throughout humankind’s history. In the inclusive process, respect towards diversity is a fundamental requisite in order for the transformation of a society that has traditionally been based on exclusion to happen, and the multifunctional resource rooms are a relevant strategy in this. Therefore, it is necessary to understand what are the principals’ perception of the work that is developed in said rooms. This study is part of a diagnosis that was carried out in the development of a doctoral thesis that is being elaborated, and that aims to build a methodology that will guide teachers in the making of materials in the teaching of Sciences by using assistive technology based on universal design. This investigation used a qualitative analysis approach, by the means of a semi-structured interview, aiming to identify the point-of-view of principals, that is, to identify the relevance (or lack thereof) of the resource rooms as a means to promote educational inclusion of persons with disabilities. The praxis can be transformed by the results of this investigation. In this sense, this analysis can put into perspective the real and ideal situation of educational inclusion in multifunctional resource rooms, allowing for new improvements.

Starting from an inspiration in the models of doing research that break with linear perspectives in the field of human and social sciences, this study aims to present an analysis of the teaching establishment trajectory and professoralidade brands produced in the school of experience, taking as object analysis of the 'mirror of himself' and at the same time, seeks to establish a relationship between the autobiographical research and training processes and construction of teacher identity. For the development of such a proposal, if embarked-the theoretical and methodological ways of autobiographical research, qualitative and dialogical character of Bakhtin approach (BAKHTIN, 2011), together with the theoretical basis mainly proposed by Behrens (2013), Day (2001) Dominicé (1990), Freire (1996), Foucault (1996/2009), Novoa (2000/2001), Santos (2010), Passeggi (2011), Pereira (2001/2008/2013), among others, that light construction and text of scripture, in which it sought to link the ideas, to make them consistent, pointing to the teaching and the construction of professoralidade the senses; and the subject and its historicity, as a writing itself counted on a path trodden paths that were ‘common knowledge epistemology’ (FREIRE, 1996). This theoretical articulation, combined with first-person accounts made by the author (perspective of Foucault's authorship), it can be concluded that this research approach challenges the teacher to be a researcher yourself and take ownership of a discourse that carries the

social dimension of his practice in the world. This subject, which proposes to take as a research object to his own life story - a

‘writing itself ’ - brings out in his speech, some clues that enable to identify as ‘being a teacher’ permeates the question of subjectivity

and how each subject throughout his life trajectory, though unpretentiously, it makes available to teach and learn in an interactive

and dialogical way with the world.

In this work, we tried to answer the following question: What are the approximations and the distances of the teacher formation proposal present in the Political Educational Projects (PPP) of the Undergraduate Courses in Chemistry and Physics of an interior campus of a federal university in northeast to Education for Ethnic–Racial Relations (Erer)? Thus, this article aims to analyze the PPP of the mentioned courses and Erer insertion on them. From a qualitative approach, we analyzed data collected by Documental Analysis and Interviews. It was possible to verify that the analyzed PPP do not contemplate the relation between education and cultures and, more specifically, they do not propose the insertion of Erer. The results pointed to the need of Erer guidelines implement in these courses and, more broadly, in the various institutional actions, such as teaching, research and extension.
METODOLOGIAS ATIVAS: APRENDIZAGEM BASEADA EM PROBLEMAS, PROBLEMATIZAÇÃO E MÉTODO DO CASO
Authors: Mattar Joao , Aguiar Andréa Pisan Soares
Published: April 2020

This paper discusses three types of active teaching and learning methodologies: problem-based learning, problem-posing, and case method. It is a comparison between their theoretical foundations and their practices, based on a literature review. The goal is to differentiate these types of active methodologies so that educators can plan, implement and properly evaluate their uses. The results of the literature review and the comparison show, despite several similarities, important differences between these three types of active methodologies, such as: its origins and theoretical references, the construction of problems or cases, the driving and the place where the studies take place, the elaboration of hypotheses and the application of the results, among others. As future work, it is suggested that such comparisons be extended to other types of active methodologies, such as project-based learning, which is sometimes confused with the ones here studied.

Nowadays, some experiences that have demonstrated how Facebook can be used as a virtual environment has started to be a part of the educational medium. In general, they report that this social network can support the pedagogical processes of teaching and learning, authorship network, online teaching and teacher training. However, even in fact of those possibilities, it is necessary to consider epistemological principles that seek to narrow successfully the relationship between education and technologies, especially the digital ones. Based on these assumptions, the presented article related education and cyberculture as take as a link between network and apprentice. It was performed an ex-post facto study during the explanatory research of qualitative nature, in order to identify some perceptions, conceptions, and evaluations of undergraduates for the use of Facebook during teacher’s formation. The three categories identified after the capture of data from nineteen questions, elaborated in the semi-structured interview format, which dealt with the situations experienced by them as a group involved in a group formed by the social network, which emerged as a virtual reality and insofar as was being didactically systematized, as a virtual community, was synthesized by interactive and collaborative learning. In the end, it was possible to establish, among other, reflections concerned to the three identified categories, as the reason for the preference for the work type accomplished in net, the contribution of the activities accomplished virtually and the positive and negative points of the use of this network as a methodology in the science teaching.

The purpose of this text is to reflect on pedagogical experiences with the use of digital information and communication technologies (DICT), in specific use of blog, in the teaching of Chemistry. The planned experience took place over two months and was carried out in high school classes of public school. Other technological determinist theories affirm that the technologies are the responsible to determine the socio-historical directions of the context. The results showed that the structural conditions of classroom, computer lab and internet access at home greatly influence the achievement of activities using digital technologies. On the part of the students, it was observed that their engagement is not directly linked to the use of a TDIC, but to the type of activity that is performed through them. Thus, the blog, when used pedagogically, can motivate the interest of the students, but the fact of being an internet tool does not guarantee this. It is possible to conclude, therefore, that theories directed at technological determinism are questionable, since only the presence of technology can not meet the pedagogical needs of the educational process; It continues to depend on the teaching action and the learning situation.

Activity theory can be used as a framework for analyzing any human activity mediated by an artifact, including learning activities mediated by educational technologies. However, the authors who proposed the theory have not presented methods or procedures for its application, so each research has to structure yours own way of using it. To contribute to this problem, the objective of this work was to identify and analyze how the theory is applied in works in the field of educational technology and propose suggestions of procedures to be used in future researches. A bibliometric research followed by a qualitative analysis of works in this area was used as research strategy. The results indicate that the activity theory is already applied in the field of educational technology as an analysis tool. The advantages of its application consist in providing a holistic view of the social and complex context in which technologies are inserted, as well as the identification of the interrelationships and contradictions between the various actors (subjects and community) and the other elements of the activity (mediating artefacts, division of labor and rules and customs). Although the theory originally proposed does not present a standardized protocol of how the framework should be applied, the qualitative analysis was able to identify in the analyzed works a general common line of its use. This general line was synthesized in the form of an application model of the activity theory framework presented at the end of this article.

We are living today the challenge of instrumentalizing schools in a way that meets all the subjects respecting diversity. It is up to school management to work collectively to consolidate public educational policies that ensure the right to education for all. Managing actions become even more necessary when we perceive the increase of students with disabilities who reach the Youth and Adult Education Mode, leading us to understand the role of the management team in the construction of an inclusive school. The objective was to analyze the planning of actions of the school that contemplates the realization of the national policy of special education with focus on the execution and evaluation of these actions. Through of a qualitative approach and study of multiple case, in two municipal schools in Salvador, involving 16 subjects, we investigated if the official documents of the school contemplate actions that aim the inclusion of the person with disability in the EJA and how the management team manages the resources for the reach of them. The research reveals the need to redefine the internal performance of the manager, to achieve bigger articulation between the school management and the municipal secretaria for the implementation of an inclusive education in the EJA.

The curricular approach to History, Geography and Culture of the Azores, within the non-disciplinary curriculum area of Citizenship, results from a decision of the Regional Government of the Azores. The University of the Azores prepared - under request of Regional Secretariat for Education and Culture - the Curriculum Matrix and the Program for teaching History, Geography and Culture of the Azores, in the 6th grade of the 2nd cycle of Basic Education. In 2016, a Training Workshop was designed to support the work of the teachers involved, aiming to provide an updated scientific approach to the program contents, to support discussion and reflection on the possibilities of pedagogical approach, and to address the construction and sharing of teaching materials in the field. This Training Workshop was designed to occur in B-learning (with classroom sessions and distance learning), involving sixty 6th grade teachers, dispersed throughout the nine islands of the Azorean Archipelago. To support the online learning component a Virtual Learning Environment was conceived, following a methodology inspired by principles of Educational Design Research. It was designed to enable the supervised construction, evaluation and validation of teaching materials in History, Geography and Culture of the Azores, operating as a community of research and practice. This article analyzes the path taken in the organization and management of the Virtual Learning Environment that supported this Training Workshop, and aims to deepen the reflection on the potential and possible constraints underlying B-Learning in-service teacher education at the University of the Azores.

Today the human being assumes a nomadic position in a ubiquitous society. It inhabits at the same time hyperspaces, characterized by the fluidity of communication mediated by emerging technologies of fast connection to the wireless networks, which contribute to interaction between people from both town and the small and little known village, even in the condition of displacement and ubiquity. The communicational ecologies in fluid spaces in hypermobility are a relevant aspect for the pedagogical use of Digital Information and Communication Technologies (DICT) in Distance Education (DE) since pedagogical actors, although geographically dispersed, can interact with each other. This study focuses mainly on the mapping and description of the pedagogical use of DICTs by the specialized tutors of the courses taught at EaD at the Pedagogical University of Mozambique - Delegation of Niassa (UPNI). For the empirical research, a survey was consciously and voluntarily answered by 30 tutors, 13 of which were from the AMA-Administration and Management Education, 11 from the BE-Basic Education course and 6 from the ET-English Teaching course. Among the participants in the survey half (50%) have between 31 to 40 years old. The results indicate high levels of satisfaction in terms of overcoming digital primary division rates and digital divide characterized by the possession by the subjects of the main computing devices and telecommunications with Internet access, access whose frequency ranges from weekly to daily. Considerable digital literacy was also observed in the use of digital technologies connected to the web through the exploration of software and web services by the participants, indicators evaluated as relevant for the pedagogical use of DICT in courses offered in the modality of Distance Education and more correlated to the cyberculture's time.

This paper aims to compare the responses of Australian students and Brazilian students regarding issues involving probability contents addressed in a statistical literacy assessment instrument. Thus, we selected two probabilities questions from this instrument, being applied with Australian and Brazilian students. The same instrument was applied with Brazilian students, elementary education II, in four public schools. The comparisons of the students' responses were then performed. The comparisons of the answers showed that Brazilian students present difficulties similar to those of Australian students in understanding the contents that involve probability. It should be noted that mathematics teachers have a fundamental role in promoting statistical literacy.
