Revisión del concepto de identidad profesional docente
Authors: Olave Sergio
Published: August 2020

This article aims to collect an approximation to the concept of the teaching professional identity from the conceptualization of other identities that intervene in its construction. The teaching identity is of great importance due to the current situation that education is going through with regard to new ways of seeing the role of the educator in virtuality. The narrative is carried out for this review. A bibliographic search and analysis was carried out in academic search engines, magazines, conferences and seminars; as well as in databases. Relationships and tensions were established between the concepts of identity (personal, cultural, social, professional and teaching). From the results, most of the studies indicate this identity as a non-static quality; however, some authors qualify it in social factors linked to the context. It changes when social and cultural patterns prevail. Most papers cover teacher identity from the initial teacher training, but studies are needed at other stages of the training that allow a deeper understanding of the concept.
PREVALENCE OF AMPC BETA LACTAMASE PRODUCING ORGANISMS AMONG ADMITTED CAUTI PATIENTS IN A TERTIARY CARE MEDICAL COLLEGE OF EASTERN INDIA.
Authors: Chakraborty Gourab , Das Niladri Sekhar , Banik Priyanka
Published: August 2020

Abstract: AmpC Beta lactamases are class C or group I cephalosporinases that confer resistance to a wide variety of beta lactam antibiotics including cefoxitin, cephalosporins, aztreonam, and are poorly inhibited by beta lactamase inhibitors such as clavulanic acid. Several epidemiological studies have shown that AmpC enzyme producing bacteria are recovered from hospitalized patients after several days of admission to the hospital. Organisms producing these types of beta lactamases often go undetected and therefore have been responsible for several nosocomial outbreak. Hence a study was conducted to see the prevelance of Amp C beta lactamases mainly in CAUTI patients along with the detection method in a tertiary care hospital setup of eastern India among 100 Catheter associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) cases. The prevalence rate of AmpC beta lactamases was found to be 78.33% by cefoxitin/ cefepime detection method. 81.4% of Ecoli strains and 75.75 % of klebsiellas were AmpC producers in our setup. Study reveals the prevalence of AmpC beta lactamase among CAUTI was relatively high hence antibiotic resistance is an important concern for clinicians treating patients with suspected or confirmed bacterial infections mainly in CAUTI .

Authors: Ganguly Prabir Kumar , Das Niladri
Published: August 2020

ABSTRACT HAART (Highly active antiretroviral therapy) has transformed a fatal disease to a chronic, manageable disease. But long term toxicities are emerging after prolonged exposure to antiretroviral therapy(ART). Adverse metabolic effects like dyslipidemia, increased blood pressure, and insulin resistance(IR) have been attributed to HAART. Therefore, the use of HAART raises concerns regarding metabolic disorders and cardiovascular risk in HIV(Human immunodeficiency virus) infected patients. Objective: To determine the prevalence of insulin resistance in a cohort of HIV infected patients on HAART as compared to HAART naïve PLHIV(People living with HIV) Methods: A cross sectional study includes 53 subjects, out of which 26 were PLHIV on ART –Group I, 27 were ART naïve PLHIV-Group II was conducted. Insulin resistance was determined by homeostasis model assessment (HOMA-IR) mathematical model. Statistical analysis was performed to assess the association between demographic, clinical characteristics, laboratory results and insulin resistance. Results: 69.5 % PLHIV on HAART showed IR, as compared to 37 % of ART naïve PLHIV (p= 0.01). MetS(Metabolic Syndrome) was found in 53.8% among PLHIV on ART , compared to 11.1% among ART naïve PLHIV(p= 0.001) .In the multivariate analysis, presence of metabolic syndrome was found to be directly associated with insulin resistance.

Perspectivas de modelagem preditiva arqueológica: estudo de caso na Bacia do Rio Tubarão – Santa Catarina
Authors: Kozlowski Henrique De Sena , DeBlasis Paulo
Published: August 2020

A modelagem preditiva arqueológica é uma ferramenta de resolução pragmática de problemas relacionados com a localização de sítios arqueológicos, relacionada principalmente com a diminuição de custos e aumento na eficiência de atividades de survey. Há uma preponderância na utilização de dois métodos distintos de modelagem preditiva: uma abordagem chamada de dedutiva e outra, indutiva. Neste artigo, iremos discutir aspectos destes dois tipos de técnicas de modelagem preditiva, aplicando os dois métodos mais recorrentes na literatura em uma área piloto na região sul de Santa Catarina, a bacia do Rio Capivaras. Os modelos preditivos foram utilizados para avaliar a distribuição espacial de um tipo particular de sítio na região, caracterizado pela presença de uma mancha circular de solo bastante escuro com materiais líticos e resíduos de atividades de combustão. Com objetivo de avaliar criticamente os diferentes métodos de modelagem, foram realizados alguns testes comparativos, demonstrando pontos positivos e negativos de cada método.
Índios escravizados na Bahia setecentista: apenas uma questão de terminologia
Authors: Barros Rafael Dos Santos
Published: August 2020

A existência da escravização dos povos indígenas é alvo de muitas discussões nos meios acadêmicos. Durante muito tempo foi propagado pela historiografia que os índios foram pouco escravizados, pois não se adaptariam ao trabalho sistemático das lavouras. Porém, nos últimos anos, os historiadores vêm apontando para o equívoco dessas noções. Na Bahia setecentista, os homens da fronteira formaram aldeias particulares com o objetivo de se tornarem senhores escravocratas, um dos principais meios para ocupar um lugar de destaque na hierárquica sociedade do Antigo Regime. A formação desses núcleos erigiu da precisão de mão de obra para abastecer os pequenos, médios e grandes proprietários do Recôncavo. Com dificuldade de acessar o mercado de escravos africanos, utilizando a força de trabalho indígena, parece estar claro que a escravização dos negros da terra era uma das principais motivações para o deslocamento dos homens do litoral para o sertão.

XX) além de tijolos de adobe e cerâmicos (sécs. XIX e XX), e a cultura material coletada, as quais evidenciam atividades de uso residencial, com áreas de cocção e refugo de cozinha, cerâmica regional, faianças, louças decoradas e camadas de solo antropogênico e de aterro com restos construtivos de desmonte e a presença de materiais reciclados.
Star Topology Convolution for Graph Representation Learning
Authors: Wu Chong , Feng Zhenan , Zheng Jiangbin , Zhang Houwang , Cao Jiawang , YAN Hong
Published: August 2020

We present a novel graph convolutional method called star topology convolution (STC). This method makes graph convolution more similar to conventional convolutional in neural networks (CNNs) in Euclidean feature space. Unlike most existing spectral convolution methods, this method learns subgraphs which have a star topology rather than a fixed graph. It has fewer parameters in its convolution kernel and is inductive so that it is more flexible and can be applied to large and evolving graphs. As for CNNs in Euclidean feature spaces, the convolution kernel is localized and maintains good sharing. By increasing the depth of a layer, the method can learn lobal features like a CNN. To validate the method, STC was compared to state-of-the-art spectral convolution and spatial convolution methods in a supervised learning setting on three benchmark datasets: Cora, Citeseer and Pubmed. The experimental results show that STC outperforms the other methods. STC was also applied to protein identification tasks and outperformed traditional and advanced protein identification methods.

Двадцатые годы XX века были периодом активного становления кинематографа на территории Советского Союза, когда национальные кинематографические школы еще не были сформированы. Появление кинематографа в Узбекистане не только способствовало развитию киносети, прокату и производству фильмов, но и решало важнейшую задачу – продолжало борьбу против религиозных и бытовых пережитков, а также укрепляло положение женщины на Востоке, освобождая ее и выводя на новый уровень личного и социального развития. Появление кинематографа на советском Востоке стало, безусловно, уникальным явлением, благодаря которому были заложены традиции национальных кинематографических школ, а также открыты новые имена и яркие таланты.

In the 1920s, when national cinematographic schools had not yet been formed, the Soviet Union was actively developing cinema. The advent of cinematography in Uzbekistan has not only contributed to the development of cinema, rental and film production, but also completed a very important task – continued to fight against religious and everyday relics and strengthened the position of women in the East, freeing her and bringing a new level of personal and social development. The development of cinema in the Soviet East was, undoubtedly, a unique phenomenon, that laid the foundation for the traditions of national cinematographic schools and opened up new names and bright talents.

A Closer Look at Language Learning Strategies
Authors: Wood Joseph
Published: August 2020

Language learning strategies (LLSs) are made up of the conscious and deliberate actions that language learners take in order to help them learn a language. It would be useful, however, to know which particular LLSs are the most effective so we can in turn focus on them in class and encourage our students to begin using them. To do this, we should ask ourselves, what kinds of LLSs do advanced-level students use in their own language learning? This study examined that question in hopes of learning the most effective strategies to teach our lower-level students to use. An advanced-level class of 18 second-year university students in Japan was surveyed on the effectiveness of LLSs based on a class-generated list. Following this, six students were selected for in-depth interviews. The survey and interview data found that students believed that speaking strategies are the most effective for learning English.
言語学習におけるストラテジー（LLSs）とは、学習者が言語を学びやすくするために起こす意識的かつ計画的な行動により構成されるものである。しかしながら、最も効果的なLLSsは何なのかを知ることは有益である。さらに授業の中でそれらのLLSsに注目し、学生たちがそれらを使い始めるように促すことを可能にするためである。それを知るために、私達は自分自身に次のように問うべきである―上級レベルの学生たちが英語学習の際に使っているのはどんなLLSsだろうか？本研究では、その答えを出し、初級レベルの学生たちにも最も効果的なLLSsを使って学習させるべく調査を展開している。日本のある大学の2年生18人の英語上級者クラスでは、学生たちが自ら作ったリストをもとに、それぞれのLLSsの効果を調査した。また、6人の学生に詳細なインタビューを受けてもらった。これらの調査により、英語上級者の学生たちが考える最も効果的なLLSsはスピーキングであるということがわかった。
ESP for Ceramic Artists: Exploring the Demonstrative Artist Talk Genre
Authors: Hammond Mark
Published: August 2020

By exploring the spoken genre of demonstrative artist talk, or demo, this study is an initial step of an ongoing project to support and train Japanese ceramic practitioners to use English as a foreign language in authentic contexts of the international community of the ceramic arts. As a common component of ceramic arts education, these artist talks combine live hands-on demonstration with simultaneous commentary, for the purpose of sharing technical knowledge and creative processes. Borrowing from methodologies employed in research of a similar genre (architecture student critiques), the current study uses qualitative coding to unpack the discourse of nine talks given at the international conferences of the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts. By identifying five salient levels of communicative functions, the analysis provides a point of departure for the development of pedagogical approaches to be implemented at universities and colleges of the arts in Japan.
本研究は、実演的な作家トーク（デモ）という話しことばのジャンルを探求することで、陶芸分野の国際社会での実際の場面で、日本の陶芸従事者が外国語としての英語を使えるようにサポート・訓練するプロジェクトの最初の一歩とするものである。この作家トークとは、陶芸教育のごく普通の一要素で、技術的知識と創作的過程を共有する目的をもって、生の実演とその同時進行のコメントを結びつけるものである。類似のジャンル（建築学生の批評）の研究で使われる方法論を借用して、この研究では、質的なコード変換を行って、陶芸教育全国評議会(the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts)の国際大会で行われた9つのトークの談話の流れを解析する。この分析は、五つの顕著なコミュニケーション機能を特定して、日本の芸術系の大学で実践される教育方法の開発への出発点を与えることを目的とする。
Reflective Practice on Movie Scene Performances: Exploring Our Teacher Efficacy
Authors: Bankier John , Antle Joshua
Published: August 2020

Reflective practice (RP) is an avenue to becoming an effective teacher. Collaborative dialogue on teaching practice increases critical engagement with RP and provides peer-support opportunities (Mann & Walsh, 2017). In this paper we describe how our use of collaborative RP sessions impacted our sense of teacher efficacy. Two classes of Japanese university students selected, practised, and performed three short extracts from movies. We aimed to develop pronunciation, fluency, and enjoyment and engagement with English. In three teaching cycles, we engaged in collaborative dialogue sessions to reflect on teaching, discussing achievement of class goals and planned changes. RP sessions were audio recorded, transcribed, and qualitatively analysed for themes of teacher efficacy. We believe that reflecting and sharing our teaching practices led to an increased sense of our own capacity to effect positive teaching outcomes. Additionally, our response to negative teaching outcomes suggested increased confidence in our ability to adapt our teaching practice in response.
省察的実践（RP）は、能力のある教師になるための手段である。教育実践に関して協働的な対話をすることで、省察的実践への取り組みが高まりピアサポートの機会が作られる（Mann & Walsh, 2017）。本稿では、協働的な省察的実践のセッションが教師効力感にどのような影響を与えるか考察する。2クラスの英語を学習している日本人大学生は３つの映画の抜粋を選び、練習し演じた。教師は発音、流暢さ、楽しさ、英語を使うことへの取り組みを重視するよう心がけた。３つの実践で、教師は協働的な対話に参加し、クラス目標の到達や変更すべき点について話し合いながら授業について振り返った。セッションを録音し、書き起こし、教師効力感に関して質的分析を行った。自分の教育実践を振り返り共有することで、プラスの教育効果を与える能力が向上する感覚につながることが明らかになった。また、マイナスの教育効果に対し自分の教育実践を受けとめる能力に自信を持てるようになった。

This paper discusses the results of research conducted with the Ansys Fluent
programme on the air flow through natural ventilation supply and exhaust ducts
of rooms located on the ground and upper floor of a building. A scenario with air
inflow to a room through an air intake located on the basement floor level was
selected for the tests. All simulations were performed for outdoor temperatures
of +3,+12, and -15°C (simulations run for an outdoor air temperature of +12°C
are discussed in detail). The temperature inside the room is +20°C, i.e. at the
minimum temperature level for thermal comfort. The simulations address such
issues as the pressure system inside the room and in the exhaust duct, the
distribution of air temperature in the room and the vector direction of airflow
through the supply and exhaust ducts.

This study was designed to evaluate the sensory characteristics of different types of chicken karahi, is one of the favorite dishes of Pakistani people. Fifteen trained panelists were asked for the sensory evaluation of karahi. The sensory evaluation showed that the white shahi chicken karahi received significantly (P<0.05) higher score for flavor, tenderness, and overall acceptability (4.61, 4.61, & 7.93, respectively) than that of koyla chicken karahi (4.06, 3.98 & 6.66, respectively) but remained non-significant (P>0.05) with the red shahi chicken karahi (4.53, 4.14 & 7.33, respectively). The panel of judges found that the white shahi chicken karahi was tenderer and has improved flavor followed by red shahi chicken karahi in comparison to koyla chicken karahi. However, the panel of judges was found non-significant (P>0.05) difference in color and juiciness of white shahi (4.21 & 4.06, respectively), red shahi (4.29 & 3.88, respectively) and koyla chicken karahi (4.55 & 3.91, respectively). The koyla chicken karahi received the highest score for color followed by red shahi and white shahi chicken karahi while juiciness was higher in white shahi chicken karahi followed by koyla chicken karahi and red shahi chicken karahi.

It could be concluded that the white shahi chicken karahi received the highest sensory score by the panel of judges followed by red shahi chicken karahi and koyla chicken karahi.

Background: The study of species diversity, its conservations and extinction can be done by using systematics in plant biodiversity. Poaceae is a very diverse grass family with great economic importance as it contains crops like rice, maize, oats, wheat, etc.

Objectives: The current study was undertaken in district Charsadda during 2017-18 in flowering season to collect different grass species from the area.

Methodology: Grass specimens were gathered, preserved, mounted and then identified from the available literature/native flora (Flora of Pakistan). Ecological parameters like habitat, class, life cycle and biological spectra were determined. A total of 51 taxa comprised of 34 genera, 5 subfamilies and 11 tribes of grasses were collected from the District Charsadda. The subfamily Panicoideae was the leading family with highest number of genera, taxa and tribes, followed by Pooideae.

Results: The biological spectrum showed that in the life-form class, therophyte had the highest number of species 32 (62.74%), followed by hemicryptophyte having 13 species (25.49%). In the Leaf size class, microphylls were dominant with 24 species (47.05%) followed by nanophylls having 14 species (27.45%). The adaptational survival of plants showed that 32 species (62.74%) were terrestrial and 19 species (37.25%) were amphibious in our study. The Life-cycle class depicted that 33 species (64.70%) were annual, 17 species (33.33%) were perennial and 1 species (1.960%) was annual or perennial. The Palatability class showed that 35 species (68.62%) were highly palatable, followed by less-palatable 11 species (21.56%), non-palatable 2 species (3.921%) and moderately palatable 3 species (5.882%). The Abundant class were determined through species rating scale in ecology Acfor (Abundant Common Frequent Occasional Rare) scale to describe species abundance in a given area; 26 species (50.98%) were occasional, 12 species (23.52%) were frequent, 7 species (13.72%) were rare, 5 species (9.803%) were common and only 1 species cynodon dactylon (1.960%) was abundant in the whole area and present everywhere in the research area in every season.

Conclusion: It has been concluded from the study that unwise collection, over-grazing, over-exploitation, over-consumption and overutilization are major biotic factors, which affect the diversity of the grasses in the area and affect the populations’ sustainability on the earth crust. Therefore, the study aims to document and explore wild grasses from the area, which might help in future researches. This survey will be helpful in identifying plant wealth and status for their exploitation on systematic approaches and scientific basis.

Background: Hoopoe, Upupa epops belongs to the family Upupidae. It is found across Asia, Europe and Africa. Its habitat includes grasslands, savannas, wooded steppes, and forests. Main threats to the survival of the Hoopoe are habitat loss and climate changes.

Objectives: The present study was planned in district Gujrat (32.7037°N, 73.9585°E), Punjab Pakistan. Due to habitat loss and cutting of Sheesham tree (Dalbergia sissoo), the natural nesting sites was very scarce.

Methodology: Thirty three nested sites of Hoopoe were spotted and checked for chick’s presence regarding timing and breeding at the interval of one week. Egg size was measured using Dial clipper and weighed with electrical weighing balance.

Results: The percentage clutch size 7.04 ± 0.64, brood size 1.76 ± 0.70 and nesting success of 81% was recorded. The following trees provided the nesting sites as hole/cavities Ficus benghalensis (Barh) (23.5%), Dalbergia sissoo (Shisham) (35.2%), Acacia nilotica (Kikar) (11.7%), Ficus religiosa (Peepal) (14.7%), Mangifera indica (Mango) (8.8%).

Conclusion: More trees should be planted and wooden nest boxes should be provided at the human dwellings so that they can coexist with man.

Authors: Askari Shabana , Khurshid Hina
Published: August 2020

Present work was planned to investigate the improvement in photosynthetic pigments of Cicer arietinum by Conocarpus lancifolius growing under copper stress. Conocarpus lancifolius was chosen as a biosorbent because it is abundantly and easily available plant of Province Sindh. It does not require so much efforts or money or even water to cultivate them, moreover, it is a fast grower. Plants were grown in randomized block design in triplicates. Each pot was supplied with 1kg of soil, the control plants were supplied with distilled water only, experimental plants were supplied with different concentration of copper viz. 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 ppm whereas treated plants were supplied with 5gm Conocarpus lancifolius leaf powder along with the different concentration of copper. Effect of Copper on Cicer arietinum and its biosorption by Conocarpus lancifolius was observed by the determination of photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll a, b, total chlorophylls and carotenoids) and its products (glucose, sucrose and total soluble sugars). Various parameters were also analyzed to correlate and confirm our results like % germination, root and shoot lengths, leaf area and relative water content. C. lancifolius was found not only an efficient, eco-friendly and cost-effective biosorbent for heavy metal copper but it is also an effective fertilizer too.

The current study focuses on the effect of variation in time of bacterial treatment during different growth phases of seeds on plant growth improvement using Helianthus annuus L. For this purpose, two phyllospheric auxin-producing bacterial strains Bacillus thuringiensis (E4) and Lysinobacillus fusiformis (E6) were used for bacterial treatment. Two experiments were conducted in the present work with pre-germination and post-germination inoculation treatments to seeds. A comparative analysis was made in order to find out the efficiency of Bacillus thuringiensis (E4) and Lysinobacillus fusiformis (E6) for improving growth of Helianthus annuus L. Post-germination treatments were found effective with Bacillus thuringiensis (E4) but Lysinobacillus fusiformis (E6) worked well in both treatments i.e., in pre-germination and in post-germination inoculation treatment.

Foodborne diseases are the world's main problem in a society nowadays; many phytochemicals are of great interest to scientists. Herbal medicines can be used to treat many infectious diseases. In our study, we focus on screening of antibacterial activity of the lemon (Citrus limon) and orange (Citrus sinesis) peels against various pathogens. Bioactive compounds have been found in variety of citrus fruits that have favorable impact on human health. The major component; flavonoids have been found in the peels of citrus fruits in large amount. Citrus peel has a rich amount of flavonoid and other poly methylated flavonoids (exceptional to some plants). These antibacterial compounds exhibit antibacterial activity and have wide application in both food and pharmaceuticals industries. The citrus peel extracts show effective antimicrobial activity. The antagonistic activity of selected citrus peel extracts was determined by agar well diffusion; against test organisms i.e. Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi and Bacillus subtilis isolated from food products. Effectiveness of peel extracts are measured in terms of inhibitory zones in millimeter. The methanol extract of lemon peel displayed zone of inhibition in between 5mm to 8mm and methanol extract of orange peel displayed zone of inhibition about 10mm and 11mm. It was observed that lemon peel extract has maximum antibacterial activity against Bacillus subtilis (8mm) and minimum antibacterial activity against Salmonella typhi (5mm) whereas orange peel extract has maximum antibacterial activity against Bacillus subtilis (11mm) and minimum antibacterial activity against Salmonella typhi (10mm). Both Citrus peels extract showed considerable antibacterial activity against all tested foodborne pathogens. Our main focus was the use of herbal treatments against various infections which overcome the emergence of upcoming superbugs.
