Teaching four Skills of English Language Writing, Reading, Speaking, and Listening through Literature
Authors: Al-Jiboury Thaer Hussein Abbas
Published: November 2024

English is considered one of the most challenging languages in the world due to its complex structure and rich grammar, which significantly impact the teaching and learning process. Additionally, globalisation's influence has increased the importance and widespread use of the English language, especially in educational and professional fields. English literature opens the gate to all aspects and structures of the English language. It is written coherently, enabling students to learn the language successfully. English literature is written to educate audiences on how to navigate the world around us, regardless of differences in positions and jobs. It helps the audience, especially students in intermediate schools, learn how to read, write, listen, and speak, as their age allows them to absorb a wide range of topics. Literary texts are composed of poetry, prose, etc., characterised by artistic beauty that influences both the listener and the reader. They serve as a vessel for good literary heritage and can be used to develop linguistic, expressive, stylistic, and aesthetic skills among students. As cultural and humanistic material, studying them helps learners understand human nature. Literary texts represent a learning process aimed at intentionally changing learners' cognitive, psychological, social, and perceptual behaviours. Additionally, as linguistic material, they aim to contribute to proper pronunciation, effective performance, eloquent delivery, accurate understanding of what is heard or read, and enriching the learners' vocabulary, which leads to achieving the goal.
Formulation and Assessment of Tolnaftate Microsponges for Topical Medication Deliverance
Authors: Albasri Omar Waleed Abduljaleel
Published: November 2024

Objective: This study aimed to develop and evaluate the sustained delivery of Tolnaftate using topical polymeric microsponges. Materials and Methods: Tolnaftate-loaded microsponges made of ethyl cellulose were prepared via quasi-emulsion solvent diffusion. The effects of the drug-to-polymer ratio on active drug content, particle size, and entrapment efficiency were examined. The optimized formulation was incorporated into a Carbopol gel and evaluated for drug content, pH, viscosity, and in vitro drug release. The study considered internal phase volume, stirring rate, and emulsifier concentration as variables and analyzed their impact on entrapment efficiency and particle size. Results: Increasing stirring speed reduced particle size and improved entrapment efficiency, while a higher volume of dichloromethane decreased particle size. Scanning electron microscopy revealed porous and spherical microsponges. The 1.5:1 drug-to-polymer ratio yielded the highest active drug content, optimal entrapment efficiency, and smallest particle size, making it the preferred ratio for further studies. Conclusions: The drug release from the microsponge gel was more sustained compared to both the marketed product and pure drug gel. An ex vivo drug deposition study using rat abdominal skin showed satisfactory drug deposition. These polymeric microsponges show potential as a topical drug delivery system for antifungal therapy.

The aim of this study is to determine some acute phase proteins and biochemical parameter levels in cattle infected with the hydatid cysts. In the study, a total of 30, Brown Swiss cattle including 15 infected with the hydatid cysts in the study group and 15 in the control group were used. Haptoglobin, serum amyloid A (SAA), ceruloplasmin, interleukin (IL)-6, total protein, albumin, aspartate amino transferase (AST), gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, urea, creatinine, iron (Fe) levels were determined colorimetrically. When the animals infected with hydatid cysts and control group were compared, it was determined that haptoglobin, SAA, IL-6, AST, ALP, GGT activity, urea, creatinine levels and acute phase protein index values increased, while albumin levels decreased. In addition, it was determined that the ceruloplasmin and total protein levels increased, globulin, albumin/globulin and Fe levels decreased, but they were statistically insignificant. In conclusion, it was determined that there were significant changes in the biochemical parameters and increased haptoglobin and SAA synthesis in the animals infected with the hydatid cysts, and it is thought that these parameters may contribute to the pathogenesis and diagnosis of the disease.

A Doença de Alzheimer (DA) tem se consolidado como um dos maiores desafios de saúde pública do século XXI, refletindo o envelhecimento global da população. Com sua prevalência crescente, a DA se tornou a principal causa de demência, caracterizando-se pela perda progressiva de memória, funções cognitivas e habilidades motoras, comprometendo drasticamente a qualidade de vida dos indivíduos afetados. Além do impacto psicológico e social, a doença acarreta elevados custos econômicos, tanto para os pacientes quanto para os sistemas de saúde, devido à necessidade de cuidados contínuos e especializados. Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática da literatura, a qual investigou sobre o manejo da Doença de Alzheimer, para avaliar a eficácia terapêutica, pela coleta de dados nas plataformas PubMed, LILACS, Periódicos CAPES, EMBASE e Scielo, dos últimos 5 anos. Assim,  é evidente que o tratamento da doença de Alzheimer pode se beneficiar de uma abordagem integrada, combinando diferentes modalidades terapêuticas para otimizar os resultados clínicos e promover a qualidade de vida dos pacientes. No entanto, os estudos revisados também revelam a necessidade de mais investigações, especialmente em relação à eficácia a longo prazo das terapias farmacológicas, à avaliação de eventos adversos raros e ao aprimoramento das intervenções dietéticas e comportamentais. Estudos mais amplos, de maior duração e com amostras mais heterogêneas são fundamentais para consolidar as evidências sobre as intervenções no manejo da doença de Alzheimer e para o desenvolvimento de estratégias terapêuticas personalizadas.
White-tailed deer monitoring at Arkansas Post National Memorial, Arkansas: 2005?2024 trend report
Authors: Hubbard Tani , Haack-Gaynor Jennifer , Peitz David , Haack-Gaynor Jennifer , Hubbard Tani , Peitz David
Published: November 2024

During the 20-year period (2005?2024) that the Heartland Inventory and Monitoring Network has monitored trends in white-tailed deer within a defined survey area of Arkansas Post National Memorial, we have observed both population declines and recoveries. The adjusted deer count increased seven-fold between 2007 and 2011 following a two-year decline and increased three-fold between 2017 and 2019 following a six-year decline. Currently, Arkansas Post National Memorial is experiencing a five-year decline in deer based on adjusted counts. Across the 20-year monitoring period, a non-significant (P = 0.92) declining trend of nearly 0.32% in the adjusted deer count was observed. The number of deer in the survey area ranged from 16.77 ?21.26 individuals/km2 (mean ?95% CI) in 2007 to 118.95 ?39.03 individuals/km2 in 2011. The amount of visible area surveyed each year varied between 0.25 and 0.47 km2 (coefficient of variation = 14.91%).
If the white-tailed deer population becomes too large, this poses several problems for Arkansas Post National Memorial. First, it adds a level of complexity to implementing active natural resource management critical to preventing the cultural landscapes from changing into something that has little resemblance to the historical character of the park. Deer deferentially browse native vegetation over exotic vegetation, which promotes the spread of exotic species, and the success of tree planting can be curtailed by heavy deer browsing. Second, controlling deer-related disease, some of which can affect domestic livestock and human health in and around the park, becomes increasingly difficult when there are more deer. Third, as additional ancillary data suggests, the largely unreported and costly deer-vehicle collisions in and around Arkansas Post National Memorial have the potential to increase if the deer population increases.

How the Digital Medium Changes the Perception of Filmmaking. New Subconscious `Readings` of a Moving Image
Authors: Dediu Eugen
Published: November 2024

This article focuses on the way the spectator’s perception and analysis of moving images has changed in the past two decades, following the growing technological advancements in the digital field. Both small digital cameras, meant for home use, and the digitalization of everyday life through different online platforms have had a significant impact on the way our brains subconsciously understand visual stimuli. What changes is not only the spectator’s viewing experience but also his interpretation of the semiotics of the image. In the first part of the article, I will use as example two of the works of the great Iranian auteur Jafar Panahi, whose ban to never make movies again has forced him to find alternate ways of expression. In the second part of the article, I will focus on a lesser-known horror film, crafted in the form of a Zoom meeting, which I believe to be a revolutionary milestone in the breaking of the barriers of visual perception: Host (2020), directed by Rob Savage. In understanding these recent changes in our cognitive behavior, the next step would be updating the pedagogical approach to this unavoidable digital medium, in order to prepare the next generation of filmmakers for the medium in which they will be working.

Published: November 2024

The 2019 Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) pandemic has significantly affected Malaysia's higher education sector. It also creates an incentive for the restoration of the school sector and the establishment of revised programmes and evaluations. Higher learning institutions begin to embrace virtual learning which forces the students to adopt new types of learning in a short period. This research paper presents an empirical investigation of physical, mental and emotional fatigue experienced by undergraduate Information Technology (IT) programme students during the COVID-19 pandemic. A set of questionnaires was developed using the ZEF Scale focusing on physical, mental and emotional fatigue. To validate the questionnaires, the item questions were administered by the three education technology domain experts, from the Computing Department, Faculty of Arts, Computing, and Creative Industry (FSKIK), Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI). This study involved a total of 230 undergraduate students from the IT program. The responders were administered with the questionnaire using Google Form. The collected data had been analysed using descriptive analysis with frequency and percentage, correlation analysis with frequency and percentage, validity, and reliability of each question. The Pearson correlation (r) demonstrated that the study was significant. The majority of undergraduate IT programme students were experiencing physical fatigue (r=0.984), emotional fatigue (r=0.965) and mental fatigue (r=0.937) while attending classes virtually. Thus, with this study, we support the notion that the undergraduate IT programme students were experiencing physical, mental and emotional fatigue while attending the classes online during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Undergraduate students' perceived success factors on learning: An online flipped classroom for designing pervasive games
Authors: Kai Liu , Tan Wee Hoe , Saari Erni Marlina
Published: November 2024

This study aims to identify undergraduate students' perceived success factors in designing a pervasive game using an online flipped classroom approach. Since the context coexisting with the Covid-19 epidemic, online teaching has become the new norm. Implementing the flipped classroom approach to online teaching is quite different from traditional teaching. Furthermore, teaching pervasive game design online with a flipped classroom procedure is undoubtedly a great challenge. After successfully applying the online flipped classroom approach to design pervasive games, a series of one-on-one interviews were conducted with 34 students, in which the data were analyzed using grounded theory. Through the analysis process of open coding, axial coding, and selective coding, six influential factors were found to determine the success of online flipped classrooms for pervasive game design, i.e., professional guidance, a clear mission, autonomic learning, mutual communication, team cooperation, and instrument strategy. These factors influence and link to each other, in which each factor plays a vital role in pre-class, in-class, and after-class learning. These six factors were integrated to form a preferred learning model advocated in this study, which can be referred to by other teaching and learning contexts similar to the flipped classroom for pervasive game design.

Authors: Mohamed Mokmin Nur Azlina , Ariffin Ummie Haniffah , Mohd Hamizi Muhammad Aminuddin Akmal
Published: November 2024

Providing learners with educational content based on augmented reality (AR) is a bizarre way to pique their interest in learning. This is because it is predicted that the AR learning material will assist learners to visualise a complex structure, particularly in STEM education. As AR is incorporated into educational settings, it is necessary to take into consideration educators’ perspectives as well. Thus, this study presents educators’ perspectives on using AR for STEM education. In this quantitative study, 30 STEM educator respondents were asked to fill out questionnaires about their perspectives on the use of augmented reality in learning. These perceptions are based on a number of variables which are, perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, perceives enjoyment, attitude towards its use, and intention of use. Overall, the findings show that majority of STEM educators support the utilization of AR in STEM education. Aside from that, in terms of the intention of use, 87% of the respondents indicated a desire to utilize AR to teach their students. This implies that the use of AR applications is important from the viewpoint of STEM educators. As a result, it is hoped that this study will facilitate future studies to support the significance of using AR in STEM education.

Published: November 2024

This research analyzes the studies on using Google Meet to conduct online classes for educational sustainability purposes. When a series of lockdowns were implemented to handle the Covid-19 pandemic, all educational institutions were physically closed. This gives rise to the issues of continuity and sustainability of education. Teachers turned to online meeting applications to connect to students and ensure teaching and learning continue despite the physical school closure. Data for this research were taken from articles published in the Scopus database, starting from 2019; the start of the pandemic on a global scale. Thematic analysis resulted in four primary themes: students’ perception, teachers’ perception, teachers’ experience, and teaching and learning challenges. Both positive and negative points were uncovered regarding the use of Google Meet during the lockdown. This paper will help identify the benefits and challenges of Google Meet use and guide those attempting to improve their online learning experiences.

Authors: Borham Siti Rahmah , Ramli Saipolbarin , Abdul Ghani Mohammad Taufiq
Published: November 2024

The current educational transformation emphasizes the optimal use of technology in teaching and learning in line with the Industrial Revolution (IR) 4.0. Among the rapidly evolving technologies in language learning is Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, also known as Natural Language Processing (NLP). This technology was integrated into the development of the E-Muhadathah kit. E-Muhadathah kit is an interactive Arabic conversation simulation model used to improve communication skills among non-Arabic speakers at the tertiary level in Malaysia. This study aimed to identify the concept of Artificial Intelligence in education, as well as the issues and challenges of developing Arabic language software development using artificial intelligence and the design of the E-Muhadathah kit model for non-Arabic speakers. This study used document analysis derived from online journals, proceedings, articles, theses, and books through Google Scholar, Springer Link, Taylor & Francis, Science Direct, and Research Gate databases. Then, the collected data was analysed descriptively according to themes. The findings show that the concept of Artificial Intelligence consists of three main components: machine learning, deep learning, and neural networks. Among the issues and challenges raised by Arabic language scholars in the development of Artificial Intelligence-based software are the ambiguity of orthography, complexity of morphology and syntax, ambiguity of anaphora, and semantics. This study also finds that the design of the E-Muhadathah kit model has applied machine learning and deep learning elements which are speech-based and text-based applications. This study can be used as a reference for lecturers and researchers to develop Arabic language communication-based software for non-native speakers in the Malaysian Institution of Higher Education (MIHE). Therefore, this study suggests that the exploration of Artificial Intelligence in Arabic teaching and learning be further expanded to improve Arabic communication competence among non-native speakers in Malaysia.

Will salmon disappear in warming world?
Authors: Crozier Lisa , Gomes Dylan , Axel Gordon
Published: November 2024

Wild salmon are disappearing from the world’s oceans, but it is not entirely clear why or how we can stop it. Chinook salmon, also known as king salmon, is the largest species in the family Salmonidae. And yet, most populations in the contiguous United States are threatened with extinction. In addition to the many threats these fish face in their freshwater habitat, recent models have revealed that the ocean stage is at substantially higher risk due to climate change. Warming oceans may push numerous populations over the brink toward extinction. There are management strategies available, such as reducing contaminants with pervasive effects, reducing the number of hatchery fish that compete with wild salmon, and restoring habitat. We can save salmon, but we must work together to make the changes at the large scale that wild salmon need.

Authors: Haria Fitri  , Reno Wiska Wulandari  , Nabila Jihan Yandika
Published: November 2024

Background: Dental caries is a prevalent oral health issue globally, and Staphylococcus aureus is a key pathogen involved in its development. Strawberry fruits, known for their medicinal properties, contain bioactive compounds with potential antibacterial effects. This study aimed to investigate the inhibitory potential of strawberry extract against S. aureus.
Methods: A laboratory experimental study was conducted using a post-test-only control group design. Varying concentrations (10%, 15%, 20%, 25%) of strawberry fruit extract were prepared. The antibacterial activity was assessed using the disc diffusion method against S. aureus. Distilled water served as a negative control. The diameter of inhibition zones was measured after 24 hours of incubation at 37°C.
Results: Strawberry fruit extract demonstrated inhibitory effects on the growth of S. aureus at concentrations of 15%, 20%, and 25%. The average inhibition zone diameters were 0.54 mm, 2.30 mm, and 3.00 mm, respectively. No inhibition was observed at 10% concentration or with the distilled water control.
Conclusion: Strawberry fruit extract exhibits potential as an antibacterial agent against S. aureus, suggesting its possible application in dental caries prevention. Further research is needed to explore its clinical efficacy and identify the specific bioactive compounds responsible for the observed antibacterial activity.

Published: November 2024

The incorporation of fluorine atoms within the structure of organic compounds is known to exert a significant impact on their electronic properties, thereby modulating their reactivity in diverse chemical transformations. In the context of our investigation, we observed a striking illustration of this phenomenon. A Michael addition involving gem-difluorovinyl and trifluorovinyl acceptors was successfully achieved, demonstrating high stereoselectivity. This selectivity was further elucidated through theoretical calculations. Using this methodology, a series of new α,β-unsaturated amides, both fluorinated and nonfluorinated, were synthesized.

Economic growth is a recurring issue that requires hard work and is expected to improve faster in both developed and developing countries. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of Gross Regional Domestic Product (GDRP), Human Development Index (HDI), and Open Unemployment Rate (TPT) on Central Java's economic growth between 2020 and 2022. Economic growth data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) 2020–2022 report was used to calculate the sample size using the quantitative purposive sampling method. Panel data analysis was used in the Eviews program to examine the data, because the data findings used were time series and cross-section data combined into one. The research findings show that although the Open Unemployment Rate (TPT) has no significant effect on economic growth in Central Java from 2021 to 2022, GRDP and HDI have a substantial impact.
