Authors: Tesorio Patrick James C. , Canizares Monell John F.
Published: August 2022

This study explored the assessment conceptions of the secondary science teachers focusing on the promotion of student learning. Mixed method design obtained the assessment conceptions of the teachers. This study was conducted in 30, privately and government-owned schools in two western locations in the province of Cebu, Philippines. A survey questionnaire was administered to 125 secondary science teachers (determined through complete enumeration) with a return rate of 82.4% where descriptive statistics for data analysis was used. A focused group discussion (FGD) was conducted to eight selected secondary science teachers and thematic analysis was done to corroborate the survey results. The study showed that secondary science teachers “strongly” possess assessment conception pertaining to improvement of student learning, diagnosis of student abilities and improvement of teaching while they “mostly” agree on the conception regarding the accountability of students. The participants believed that assessment maybe used in determining and forwarding students' learning and improve teachers' instruction more than its summative purposes. The FGD further found out peculiar assessment conceptions that can be accounted to the assessment policy guidelines of the new K to 12 curriculum. It is recommended that further study can be done in determining the teacher assessment conceptions using all of the four constructs in the subsequent discussion. Likewise, an investigation as to how these conceptions are manifested in the actual classroom practices can provide a clearer information concerning the professional assessment competence of the teacher.

Kabahagi ng wika ang nananaig na kultura ng isang lipunan. Dekada sitenta (70s) nang umiral ang mga salitang erap at nosibalasi. Sa panahon ng Henerasyon Z ay muli itong nagbalik dahil sa milenyal na salita, hugot lines at koda ng teknolohiya na naging bahagi na ng komunikasyon. Ang pangunahing layunin ng pag-aaral ay makabuo ng glosaryo ng mga salitang tadbaliks sa Filipino. Gamit ang debelopmental na pamamaraan, ang mga mananaliksik ay lumikom ng salitang tadbaliks sa Facebook na ginagamit ng mga piling mag-aaral sa hayskul. Sinuri ang anyo at binigyang kahulugan ang mga salita batay sa konteksto ng usapang naitala. Mula rito, nakabuo ng isang glosaryo ng mga tadbaliks sa Facebook. Pinatunayan na sa pagbuo ng glosaryo, ang pagbibigay ng kahulugan sa mga tadbaliks na salita ay mahalagang nakabatay sa konteksto ng social media at mga taong gumagamit nito. Iminumungkahi na gamitin bilang sanggunian ang binuong glosaryo sa pagtuturo ng aralin sa Filipino at mga kaugnay na disiplina.

This study aims (1) to find out how the Mappasoro for the Bajiminasa village community (2) To determine the determinant factors influencing the Mappasoro for the Bajiminasa village community (3) To determine the efforts made to preserve the Mappasoro for the Bajiminasa village community. The type of research used is descriptive qualitative research. The data collection techniques in this study were by using the methods of observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed by qualitative descriptive techniques. The results of this study indicate that (1) the description of the Mappasoro of the Bugis in Bajiminasa Village, Rilau Ale District, Bulukumba Regency which is usually carried out by the Bajiminasa village community basically has three series of processions, namely: Mattihi Siesso (carrying a day), Mappicakka (Cleaning), and Marrekeng Henni (Counting the night) the three processions are considered to have good meaning by the community. This tradition is carried out as a form of love and remuneration to people who have helped in the management of the body and is considered a form of reward practice. (2) The determinant factor of the Mappasoro tradition seen from the economic factor has an important role because implementing this tradition requires a lot of money. So the size of this tradition is determined by the economic level of the community. In terms of education, it can be said that it is quite influential because people who have high education begin to think rationally so that things that are considered unreasonable are being abandoned. Whereas in the religious factor of the Mappasoro , from the beginning it was practiced by the community as a good deed which was taken in the teachings of Islam. (3) Efforts to preserve the Mappasoro in terms of the community are quite good because the people in Bajiminasa Village always participate in this tradition by taking an important role in it. However, the government itself has not been effective or maximal in efforts to preserve this tradition because there is still a lack of activities made by the government so that public interest is still very minimal in studying this tradition.

Syntactic and Semantic Similarities and Discrepancies between Terms of Glossaries for Software Testing
Authors: Tebes Guido , Lew Philip , Olsina Luis
Published: August 2022

For software testing, this work performs a comparison and analysis of syntactic and semantic similarities and discrepancies between 3 glossaries. To conduct the study, 8 terminological categories were conceived, which were used to categorize each glossary term, considering the intended semantics. Also, to count the occurrence frequency of a term in the glossaries, a tool was built that also takes into account the matching of synonyms. Then, the analysis of similarities and discrepancies, as well as absent terms for a subset of them, is performed using metrics and expert interpretations. This study identifies several disagreements in standard terminologies that should merit further attention and efforts to promote harmonization amongst the authors/ publishers of these glossaries with the overarching end goal of assisting their readers in learning and understanding the domain of software testing.

Desinformação é um problema crescente no mundo e, em particular, no Brasil. A facilidade de compartilhamento de informações promovida pela adoção de plataformas digitais intensificou severamente a extensão deste problema. No entanto, na maioria dos casos, essas plataformas são utilizadas apenas como veículos para disseminação de conteúdos que na verdade são produzidos por websites externos focados especificamente na produção e disseminação de notícias falsas. Assim, neste trabalho apresentamos uma ampla caracterização de websites de baixa e alta credibilidade. Nossos resultados revelam características interessantes dos websites de baixa credibilidade que podem ser úteis, inclusive, para distingui-los dos demais, contribuindo para o entendimento do fenômeno da desinformação no contexto brasileiro.

Authors: Souza Lucas Airam C. de , Camilo Gustavo F. , Sammarco Matteo , Campista Miguel Elias M. , Costa Luís Henrique M. K.
Published: August 2022

O desempenho do aprendizado federado depende da distribuição dos dados, mostrando alta degradação no cenário de clientes com dados heterogêneos. Este artigo propõe um esquema hierárquico de agrupamento de clientes para contornar os desafios gerados por distribuições de dados não Independentes e Identicamente Distribuídas (não-IID) no aprendizado federado. Os grupos criados possuem clientes nos quais os dados possuem distribuições aproximadamente IID, facilitando a convergência do modelo. O sistema possui uma fase de inicialização, na qual o servidor executa um algoritmo de aprendizado não supervisionado de agrupamento sobre o vetor de bias da última camada da rede neural dos clientes. O algoritmo DBSCAN demonstrou melhores resultados de agrupamento, identificando corretamente os grupos até quando todos os clientes possuem conjuntos de dados com distribuições IID. Por fim, os resultados mostram o aumento de até 16% da acurácia em relação à abordagem de aprendizado federado tradicional quando os clientes possuem conjuntos de dados não-IID.

Results: The results of the systematic review showed that the hospitalization rate and numbers of out-patients have increased, leading to imposing a burden on the health system and healthcare workers (HCWs). A serious type of disease may need hospitalization and ventilatory support. The quality of healthcare institutions is unique and complex. HCWs, in their routine activities, face diverse challenges. The unexpected development of the COVID-19 pandemic was a great challenge faced by the health system and health professionals. Conclusions: The pandemic has altered the healthcare system and healthcare practice with innovative workplaces and social challenges confronted by the HCWs.
"Two plans and two Marshals" in the light of Yugoslav-American relations (1947-1951)
Authors: Cvetković Emilija
Published: August 2022

Bearing in mind the character of Yugoslav foreign policy after WWII, as well as the state of Yugoslav-American relations, Yugoslavia rejected to participate in the Marshall Plan in 1947, but at the same time, it presented the First Five-Year Plan. The Tito-Stalin split in 1948 was a significant turning point in Yugoslav perception of the Marshall Plan. Although the generally negative attitude towards the Marshall Plan was still present, the absence of the main economic support from the Soviet Union conditioned the gradual Yugoslav turn towards the West and the search for new trade partners or donors of economic aid. The economic blockade of the Eastern Bloc in 1949, and the potential danger of their coordinated attack on Yugoslavia, called into question the survival of the Five-Year Plan in its originally conceived form. In such circumstances, a period of significantly changed American economic policy towards Yugoslavia began, and Yugoslav diplomacy had to engage in negotiations with the West. Such a policy was successful, and in the late 1940s and early 1950s, in addition to the intensified policy of securing export licenses, the United States granted loans to Yugoslavia through official channels and its influence in international institutions. Yugoslav criticism of the Marshall Plan at the time of the change in American economic policy was getting quieter. The newly established system of Yugoslav self-management set the ideological framework for building economic relations with both East and West. However, a far more significant legacy of the period of Yugoslav-American relations discussed in this paper was the laying of the foundations for the continuity of more intensive economic and political relations between the two countries throughout the Cold War and American policy that sought to "keep Tito afloat".
Immunotherapy-Based Neoadjuvant Treatment of Advanced Microsatellite Instability–High Gastric Cancer: A Case Series
Authors: Liu Louisa , Woo Yanghee , D’Apuzzo Massimo , Melstrom Laleh , Raoof Mustafa , Liang Yu , Afkhami Michelle , Hamilton Stanley R. , Chao Joseph
Published: August 2022

Despite the use of first-line therapies like fluoropyrimidine and platinum-based cytotoxic chemotherapy, gastric cancer (GC) continues to carry a poor prognosis. Recent subgroup analyses of first-line phase III trials have demonstrated that patients with microsatellite instability–high (MSI-H) metastatic GC derive significant improvement in survival rates when immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are combined with chemotherapy compared with chemotherapy alone. However, it remains to be seen whether the success of ICIs in the metastatic setting can be translated into earlier stages of GC with resectable disease. We report 6 cases of locally advanced, nonmetastatic MSI-H GC that all demonstrated favorable response following treatment with pembrolizumab in addition to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. With the exception of immune-related colitis in one patient, pembrolizumab was well-tolerated. To our knowledge, this is the first reported US case series of patients treated with an ICI in combination with neoadjuvant chemotherapy for advanced, nonmetastatic, resectable or unresectable MSI-H GC.

Background: It is unknown how often regional differences in oncology trials are observed. Based on our study findings, we quantified regional variation in registration studies in oncology and developed a question guide to help clinicians evaluate regional differences. Methods: Using FDA archives, we identified registration studies in solid tumor malignancies from 2010 to 2020. We extracted the baseline study characteristics and participating countries and determined whether the primary publication reported a regional subgroup analysis. For studies presenting outcomes stratified by region, we extracted the stratified hazard ratios (HRs) and extracted or calculated the test for heterogeneity. We performed a random effects meta-analysis and a pairwise comparison to determine whether outcomes differed between high-income versus mixed-income regions. Results: We included 147 studies in our final analysis. Studies supporting FDA drug approval have become increasingly multinational over time (β = 0.5; P=.04). The median proportion of countries from high-income groups was 81.2% (range, 44%–100%), with no participation from low-income countries in our cohort. Regional subgroup analysis was presented for 78 studies (53%). Regional heterogeneity was found in 17.8% (8/45) and 18% (8/44) of studies presenting an overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival endpoint, respectively. After grouping regions by income level, we found no difference in OS outcomes in high-income regions compared with mixed-income regions (n=20; HR, 0.95; 95% CI, 0.84–1.07). To determine whether regional variation is genuine, clinicians should evaluate the data according to the following 5 questions: (1) Are the regional groupings logical? (2) Is the regional difference on an absolute or relative scale? (3) Is the regional difference consistent and plausible? (4) Is the regional difference statistically significant? (5) Is there a clinical explanation? Conclusions: As registration studies in oncology become increasingly international, regional variations in trial outcomes may be detected. The question guide herein will help clinicians determine whether regional variations are likely to be clinically meaningful or statistical anomalies.
Sampling-based Gaussian Mixture Regression for Big Data
Authors: Lee JooChul , Schifano Elizabeth D. , Wang HaiYing
Published: August 2022

This paper proposes a nonuniform subsampling method for finite mixtures of regression models to reduce large data computational tasks. A general estimator based on a subsample is investigated, and its asymptotic normality is established. We assign optimal subsampling probabilities to data points that minimize the asymptotic mean squared errors of the general estimator and linearly transformed estimators. Since the proposed probabilities depend on unknown parameters, an implementable algorithm is developed. We first approximate the optimal subsampling probabilities using a pilot sample. After that, we select a subsample using the approximated subsampling probabilities and compute estimates using the subsample. We evaluate the proposed method in a simulation study and present a real data example using appliance energy data.
ethics of journalism challenged

Published: August 2022

The article examines Finnish news professionals’ views on the ethical challenges that ensue from emerging and intertwining forms of local professional journalism and communications. Besides describing the current situation, the article employs data from a survey of editors-in-chief to investigate how news professionals anticipate the relationship between journalism and communications evolving in the future. Respondents perceived a blurring of the boundary between local journalism and communications. They observed economic pressures creating incentives for news media to compromise their journalistic ethics and ethical concerns arising from professional communications’ adoption of journalistic practices. Editors-in-chief maintained that the boundaries between journalism and other forms of communication are clear in their media but indistinct in other local news media outlets and in society in general. They predicted an ambiguous, even grim, future of local news media in Finland. However, local news media may have a positive future if they become distinct, attractive and relevant again to citizens.

Light modelling, simulation, and photometric calculations are by now common tasks in the lighting design process. These practices contribute to the definition and comparison of suitable layout arrangements and help predict the impact of lighting devices. Those tasks demand the use of tools to support the simulation of different scenarios, the analyses of their pros and cons according to different criteria (e.g., health and safety, perception, aesthetics, energy consumption, and costs), and decision-making. Digital twins have emerged as relevant technologies to simulate and visualize different ``what-if'' scenarios associated with physical entities and processes. In this paper, we investigate the state-of-the-art research concerning the use of digital twins for supporting lighting analysis in the urban/outdoor context. We also present and discuss challenges and research opportunities related to the design, implementation, and validation of digital twins in this domain.

This study aimed to develop an alternative measurement model based on the stakeholder theory that answers the critiques toward the Balance Score Card (BSC). It synthesized variables from previous studies, including Job Satisfaction (JSA), Business Process (BPR), Customer Satisfaction (CSA), and Financial Performance (FPE). Moreover, the study set nine hypotheses representing the relationship between JSA, BPR, CSA, and FPE. The hypotheses were accepted after the Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) analysis of the financial data of the four biggest Indonesian Islamic banks and responses from 200 respondents. This finding confirmed the robustness of the model proposed in this study. The model denotes that the FPE results from the excellent implementation of JSA, BPR, CSA, and the interaction between these variables, which directly impact financial performance.
Creative Expression and the Material Culture of Italian POWs in the United States During World War II
Authors: Ruberto Laura E.
Published: August 2022

This study concerns the history of Italian prisoners of war in the United States during World War II through an analysis of the art and architecture they created. These crafted expressions highlight how Italian culture was transported and reshaped during the war and suggest alternate understandings of Italian diasporic culture and wartime experiences. They reinforced cultural heritage, mediated personal and community identities, and negotiated some of the atrocities of war. As a cultural studies scholar engaging with Italian transnational concerns, my approach emerges from an interest in the use of space, place-making, and the meanings ascribed to the material world.
Hybrid and Performative Spaces: Towards a New Analytical Lens
Authors: Kassem Ayman
Published: August 2022

The exhibition space is a territory where architects and designers have experimented with hybrid and performative spatial qualities. However, such spatial mechanisms have expanded into other spatial practices. As we live in a constantly changing world, these practices allow spatial systems that adjust to continual changes in modes of living. Newer approaches to spatial transformation try to respond to the need for transience and flexibility. Hybrid and performative interventions are elaborated to transform existing spaces with strategic non-architectural rearrangements. As a result, our inhabited spaces, such as exhibitions, are becoming hybrid and performative. However, hybrid and performative may be perceived as tools, or as resulting qualities. The literature review analysis shows many intersections between hybrid and performative. Both terms indicate a flexible built environment that is designed and organised to be multifunctional. Hybrid mostly refers to the various modes of accessing, using and being present in the space, while performative refers to the concept of flexible mechanisms, the openness towards changes and the unpredictable characterisation of a space. Performative is also linked to the ability of the space to multitask and perform different roles, including communicative tasks. This study investigates the repertoire of hybrid and performative through an analysis of a literature review conducted through the lens of exhibition design. We seek to explore and promote applications in spatial interventions and the potential to define a set of analytical tools. Seeing the emergence of a constantly changing world, spatial disciplines are trying to respond with flexible mechanisms. Therefore, newer critical lenses, scholarships, and analytical tools must be investigated, explored, and proposed to cope with such continuous shifts.

Published: August 2022

Waveguide devices of polarization processing are key elements of modern dual-polarized antenna systems. Such antenna systems carry out polarization transformation and separation of signals with orthogonal polarizations in satellite communications and radar appliances. Well-known electrodynamic methods are used to simulate performance of such devices. This paper investigates the accuracy and mutual matching of wave matrix method with FDTD and FEM. The wave matrix method is based on the theory of scattering and transmission matrices. The main electromagnetic characteristics of a polarizer were obtained through the elements of these matrices. The main characteristics of a polarizer were compared. They include phase difference of orthogonal polarizations, level of voltage standing wave, ellipticity coefficient and level of cross-polarization isolation. Comparison of electromagnetic characteristics was carried out at the example of a waveguide iris polarizer for the operating frequency range from 13.0 to 14.4 GHz. In addition, the process of optimization of electromagnetic characteristics was carried out by changing the geometric dimensions of a polarizer. Calculated by different theoretical methods characteristics were compared and analyzed. Results, which were obtained by considered methods, are in good agreement
