Published: July 2018

Background. Early prediction of academic performance is important for student selection and support. We explored, in a multivariate approach, whether pre-entry data (e.g., expectations, capabilities, motivation, attitude) could predict university students’ first year academic performance. Methods. Pre-registered applicants for a bachelor’s program filled out the Leiden Intake Questionnaire (LIQ) before study-entry (N=739). Outcome data (first-year GPA, course credits, attrition) were obtained one year later. Results. Students who performed better in preparatory education, and students who followed a conventional educational path before entering performed better during their first year at university. Non-Dutch students were less successful than Dutch students, and students who expected to spend more time on a study organization were more successful. Conclusions. The LIQ may be used for identifying upfront who may need additional support, but is not suitable for student selection. Future work on academic performance should include cross-validation to determine how well the findings may generalize.

Published: July 2018

As we move towards more data intensive, devicecentric global communication networks, our ability to usefully harvest these large datastores is degrading. The widening asym-metry in the explosive growth of data versus our ability to use it, is forcing us towards centralized analytics. This splintered concentration of data further consolidates analytical capabilities in the hands of the few and divides the network into the analysors and the analysed. The fracturing of the system into opaque datastores and analytics blocks creates a strong positive feedback loop and has a significant negative impact on the stability, transparency and freedom of the network. This paper attempted toidentify problems associated with the internet, internet dependent business models and reviewing available solutions and discuss possible solutions which became necessary.

Published: July 2018

The Manzanares River is one of the most important bodies of water in northeastern Venezuela. However, avast influx of industrial and domestic sewage from farm and urban dwellings enters the river without much control by thepertinent authorities. To ascertain the environmental quality of the river 45 sampling sites were set throughout the areacomprising the high, middle, and low-lying areas of the river basin during three different periods, namely, rainy season (2003),transitional period (2003), and dry season (2004). The parameters monitored and measured following APHA-AWWA-WPCFstandards were: temperature (18.3 – 30.0°C), pH (6.04 – 8.88), dissolved oxygen (1.7 – 7.0 mg.L-1k), nitrogen (11 – 188μmol.1-1) and phosphorus compounds (nondetectable – 22 μmol.1-1), silicates (8 – 260 μmol.1-1), and fecal coliforms (1 – 2.4· 107 MPN/100 mL). All parameters yielded differences in the three watersheds and the three seasons. The low-lying arearesulted most affected. Nitrates and nitrites were the prevailing inorganic matter, in consonance with a high presence of fecalcoliforms, profuse decomposed organic matter, and warmer temperatures. Results attest to the poor environmental quality ofthe Manzanares River, the waters of which being unsuited for human exposure.

Published: July 2018

Banyak benda-benda disekitar lingkungan kita yang terbuang begitu saja sebagai limbah (seperti bahan transparan/kaca). Sebagai seorang pendidikan sains kita harus dapat memanfaatkan sesuatu di sekitar lingkungan kita sebagai bahan pembelajaran sains (IPA fisika). Kajian difokuskan pada pemanfaatan barang bekas sebagai alat peraga optik sederhana untuk meningkatkan motivasi dan hasil belajar siswa dengan menerapkan metode drill. Jenis penelitian merupakan penelitian eksperimen. Sampel penelitian diambil dengan teknik purposive sampling yang terbagi menjadi dua kelas sampel dari seluruh populasi (Kelas VIIIA sebagai kelas eksperimen dan kelas VIIIB sebagai kelas kontrol). Data di kumpulkan melalui instrumen berupa soal tes dan angket yang telah diuji validitas maupun realibilitasnya. Dalam menganalisis data digunakan uji persyaratan analisis yang meliputi uji normalitas dan uji homogenitas, sedangkan uji hipotesis digunakan uji-t, dan pengukuran motivasi digunakan teknik analisis data berupa data kualitatif, serta untuk mengetahui peningkatannya ditentukan dengan normalisasi gain (N-gain). Berdasarkan hasil analisis, data dinyatakan terdistribusi normal dan varians kedua sampel homogen. Pada uji hipotesis diperoleh nilai thitung = 5,508 dan ttabel = 1,995 (thitung > ttabel) yang menunjukkan bahwa hipotesis alternatif (Ha) diterima yang menyatakan ada perbedaan hasil belajar siswa yang memanfaatkan alat peraga optik sederhana dengan menerapkan metode drill dibandingkan dengan yang tidak. Normalisasi gain (N-gain) untuk hasil belajar pada kelas eksperimen sebesar 0,55 yang berarti peningkatan hasil belajar memiliki kriteria sedang, dan peningkatan motivasi belajar dinyatakan dengan normalisasi gain (N-gain) sebesar 0,31 dengan kriteria sedang. Jadi, disimpulkan bahwa pemanfaatan alat peraga optik sederhana dengan menerapkan metode drill dapat meningkatkan motivasi dan hasil belajar siswa.
Growth in syntactic complexity between 4 years and adulthood: evidence from a narrative task
Authors: Frizelle Pauline , Thompson Paul Andrew , McDonald David , Bishop Dorothy Vera Margaret
Published: July 2018

Studies examining productive syntax have used varying elicitation methods and have tended to focus on either young children or adolescents/adults, so we lack an account of syntactic development throughout middle childhood. We describe here the results of an analysis of clause complexity in narratives produced by 354 speakers aged from 4 years to adulthood using the Expressive, Receptive and Recall of Narrative Instrument (ERRNI). We show that the number of clauses per utterance increased steadily through this age range. However the distribution of clause types depended on which of two stories was narrated, even though both stories were designed to have a similar story structure. In addition, clausal complexity was remarkably similar regardless of whether the speaker described a narrative from pictures, or whether the same narrative was recalled from memory. Finally, our findings with the youngest children showed that the task of generating a narrative from pictures may underestimate syntactic competence in those aged below 5 years.

Factors associated with female sterilization in Brazil
Authors: Amaral Ernesto F. L. , Potter Joseph E
Published: July 2018

This study aims to investigate factors associated with female sterilization in Brazil. The analysis is innovative because it adds the time of exposure to the risk of sterilization into survival models. The models control for postpartum duration, age at delivery, parity at delivery, type of delivery, place of delivery, region of residence at the time of interview, color/race, and years of schooling at the time of interview. The main contribution of this analysis is to comprehend the effects of different birth intervals (postpartum duration) on the risk of a woman getting sterilized. Data is from the 2006 Brazilian National Survey on Demography and Health of Children and Women (PNDS). The strongest probability that sterilization might occur was observed among women who gave birth at private hospitals and received support from health insurance companies at childbirth. Female sterilization is also executed in combination with childbirth and cesarean section. The findings suggest that years of schooling do not predict the risk of sterilization. The higher chances of getting sterilized among black women are specific to the public sector at higher-order postpartum duration (interval sterilization).

Qatar’s K-12 Education Reform - A review of the policy decisions and a look to the future
Authors: Abou-El-Kheir Amir
Published: July 2018

The State of Qatar is a small, but wealth, state in the Arabian Gulf. Over the last 20 years the country has seen some extraordinary transformations. One sector that has possibly undergone the most radical changes and development is the education sector in Qatar. At the turn of the century, in order to improve their education system, Qatar’s K-12 public schooling system underwent comprehensive reforms. In 2001, the Qatari government appointed the Rand Corporation to analyze and offer recommendations to modernize the local K-12 system. The result of Rand’s assessment was the introduction of an independent school model and an educational reform initiative, Education for a New Era (EFNE). These reforms included implementing English as a medium of instruction at all K-12 public schools. This paper reviews these education policy reforms and offers commentary on the implications of the changes since the adoption of EFNE, the current state of the K-12 education system and suggests possible ways forward for the future development of the K-12 public schooling sector in the State of Qatar.
How preschoolers react to norm violations is associated with culture
Authors: Gampe Anja , Daum Moritz M.
Published: July 2018

Children from the age of three understand social norms as such, and enforce these norms in interactions with others. Differences in parental and institutional education across cultures make it likely that children receive divergent information about how to act in cases of norm violations. In the present study, we investigated whether cultural values are associated with the ways in which children react to norm violations. We tested 80 bicultural 3-year-old children with a norm enforcement paradigm and analyzed their reactions to norm violations. The reactions were correlated to the children’s parental cultural values using the GLOBE scales and these results show that parental culture was associated with children’s reactions to norm violations. The three strongest correlations were found for institutional collectivism, performance orientation and assertiveness.

Published: July 2018

The present study examines behavioral patterns, motivations, and self-regulated learning strategies of returning learners—a special learner subpopulation in massive open on- line courses (MOOCs). To this end, data were collected from a teacher professional development MOOC that has been offered for seven iterations during 2014–2016. Data analysis identified more than 15% of all registrants as re- turning learners. Findings from click log analysis identified possible motivations of re-enrollment including improv- ing grades, refreshing theoretical understanding, and solving practical problems. Further analysis uncovered evidence of self-regulated learning strategies among returning learners. Taken together, this study contributes to ongoing inquiry into learning pathways in MOOCs, offers insights for future MOOC design, and sheds light on the exploration of MOOCs as alternatives for teacher professional development.

Among 89 churches belong to the Communion of Churches in Indonesia (PGI) there are 48 declaring themsef as Calvinist or Reformed. As mentioned in the book entitled The Reformed Family Worldwide, the 48 Reformed churches are located from Sumatera up to Papua. It means that the Calvinist churches are the largest one in Indonesia compared to the other Protestant denominations such as: Lutheran, Anglican, Methodist, etc. This reality endorses us to do research in order to explain the situation. This article will try to describe how can the Calvinist thinking can entered Indonesia and what kind of Calvinism we find in the Indonesian churches up to the present. By this research we find some impacts of Calvinist or Reformed thinking and ideas within the churches in Indonesia. So, here and there we can see that in terms of theology and practices the churches in Indonesia with its Calvinist background are still keeping the Calvinist or Reformed tradition.

Published: July 2018

This paper reports the geochemical characteristics and environmental conditions of Cuchivero river sediments in Venezuela, depending on particle size, organic matter, organic carbon, nitrogen and total phosphorus, carbonates and heavy metals. The granulometry was typified by a predominance of sands with low organic matter (0.52 to 0.87%), organic carbon (0.06 to 0.09%) and carbonates content (0.54 to 2.61%) as well as high values of total nitrogen (602-985 mg / kg). The poor correlation between nitrogen, phosphorus and organic matter, suggests presence of nitrogen and total phosphorus of allochthonous origin and no Redfield organic matter. The average heavy metals in mg/kg, showed a descending concentration gradient, Fe (410)> Mn (63.14)> Zn (9.01)> Ni (3.38)> (2.21Cu)> Cr (2.09)> Co (1.13)> Cd (0.21) > Pb (0.07) mg / kg, with an association to the sands and carbonates, suggesting lithogenic origin. From the environmental point of view, there is no evidence of anthropogenic impact, as reflected by levels of organic matter and heavy metals which are below of the permissible values.

Published: July 2018

Seawater is one of natural resources which is very abundant. According to the United Nations in 2050, more than half of the world's population will not be able to get enough drinking water. Indonesia, an archipelago country, has some regions which don’t have qualified water to drink. Concrete construction in areas that are likely a little clean/insipid water or even nothing found, thus the seawater cannot be avoided in mixing concrete.This article is a review of the literature/prior research related to concrete using sea water. Mixing concrete using sea water on concrete can increase the compressing strength when it is compared to using fresh water. This is because the sea water does not interfere with the hydration process of the calcium silicate hydrate gel formation/Tobermorite (CSH) and calcium hydrate /Portlandite (CH). In addition, NaCL as the salt content in the sea water will react on fresh concrete and will form salt crystals Friedel (Friedel's salt: 3CaO. Al2O3. CaCl2. 10H2O) which can improve the higher pH and also increasing alkalinity will activate the hydration of cement and provide pasta structure to become densee with smaller pores [15]. Otsuki et al [12, 13], it is safe to use sea water as mixing water in the concrete. Thus, the possibility of sea water will be used as mixing water in concrete without reducing the strength and durability of concrete.

AbstractThe main problem in this study is how the implications of UU No.6 Year 2014 on Village against village authority. The authority of the village in question is the authority of the village derived from the right of origin and the local authority of the village scale, since these two forms of village authority are the spirit of village autonomy. The results show that the village can’t be treated the same as treating the district, because the essence of village autonomy is different from regional autonomy. The district was formed as an implementation of centralization, which carried out some of the powers granted by the Center. Different villages, because they have authority derived from the right of origin, not a gift from the center. The autonomy of the village existed long before the republic was established, and although redesigned many times through the central policy of the village, the autonomy of the village still exist, one of which is the existence of the authority of the origin right attached to the social status of the village head and the village official the name and the mention of it, and reflected by the behavior of the village community who uphold the social life of the culture. In the end the design of village authority is proposed as part of the solution, which tries to accommodate two constructs on the authority of the village, where the existing village authority enters the "container" No. 6 Year 2015 on the Village.AbstrakMasalah utama dalam studi ini adalahbagaimana implikasi berlakunya UUNo. 6 Tahun 2014 tentang Desa terhadap kewenangan desa. Kewenangandesa yang dimaksud adalah kewenangan desa yang berasal dari hak asal usul dan kewenangan lokal berskala desa, karena kedua bentukkewenangan desa tersebutlah yang merupakan ruh otonomi desa. Hasil riset menunjukkan bahwa desa tidak bisa diperlakukan sama sebagaimana memperlakukan daerah kabupaten, karena hakekat otonomi desa berbeda dengan otonomi daerah. Kabupaten dibentuk sebagai pelaksanadesentralisasi, yang melaksanakan sebagian kewenangan yang diberikan oleh Pusat. Desa berbeda, karena memiliki kewenangan yang berasal dari hak asal usul, bukan pemberian dari pusat. Otonomi desa sudah ada jauh sebelum republik ini berdiri, dan meski didesain ulang berkali-kali melalui kebijakan pusat tentang desa , namun otonomi desa tetep eksis, salah satunya adalah dengan keberadaan kewenangan hak asal usul yang melekat pada status sosial kepala desa dan pamong desa , apapun nama dan penyebutannya, serta tercermin dari perilaku masyarakat desa yang menjunjung tinggi kehidupan sosial budayanya.Pada akhirnya desain tentang kewenangan desa diajukan sebagai bagian dari solusi, yang mencoba mewadahi dua konstruksi tentang kewenangan desa, dimana kewenangan desa eksisting masuk dalam “wadah” yang dikonstruksi UU No. 6 Tahun 2015 tentang Desa.Kata kunci : kewenangan desa, hukum negara, hak asal usul desa, kewenangan lokal berskala desa
Doing Things Twice (Or Differently): Strategies to Identify Studies for Targeted Validation
Authors: Sarma Gopal P.
Published: July 2018

AbstractThe "reproducibility crisis" has been a highly visible source of scientific controversy and dispute. Here, I propose and review several avenues for identifying and prioritizing research studies for the purpose of targeted validation. Of the various proposals discussed, I identify scientific data science as being a strategy that merits greater attention among those interested in reproducibility. I argue that the tremendous potential of scientific data science for uncovering high-value research studies is a significant and rarely discussed benefit of the transition to a fully open-access publishing model.
Onto the Street and Into the Movement: Understanding how Social Movements Expand their Reach through Large-Scale Protest Events

Published: July 2018

How do social movements broaden their societal reach and mobilize more participants? To date, research has focused on social networks, organizational coalitions, and computer-mediated communication to aid in mobilization, but most research assesses these mechanisms in relative isolation. This paper integrates these perspectives to explore the ways social movements expand their ranks through large-scale street demonstrations and marches. Analyzing data collected through random surveys of participants at two of the largest demonstrations in the history of the climate movement—the Copenhagen Climate March in 2009 and the People’s Climate March in 2014—we assess how the movement expanded. Consistent with the literature on protest mobilization, we show that the climate movement increased participation at these events via personal networks, organizational coalitions, and computer-mediated channels of communication. In addition, we find clear evidence that large-scale protest events like the People’s Climate March are bringing new people, including passive members of social movement organizations and disengaged sympathizers, to the streets and into the movement. The paper concludes by discussing the implications of our findings on social movement expansion through large-scale demonstrations and outlining opportunities for future study.

Security Issues and attacks in Network Layer On Mobile Ad Hoc Network
Authors: Bhan Isha
Published: July 2018

Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET) are a primary requirement for the establishment of communication. CBDS has a reverse tracking mechanism which checks all the stated issues. CBDS outperforms among nodes. The malicious nodes may lead to security concerns such as it may disrupt the routing process. Since it is a Manet, it can change its scale anytime so preventing or detecting the malicious node becomes a challenge. This paper tries to solve the issue by applying a dynamic source route mechanism which is also referred as cooperative bait detection scheme (CBDS). CBDS technique integrates the advantage of both proactive and reactive mechanisms much better than the previous mechanisms like BFTR, 2ACK.
Open Science is Liberating and Can Foster Creativity
Authors: Frankenhuis Willem , Nettle Daniel
Published: July 2018

Some scholars think that Open Science practices constrain researchers in ways that reduce their creativity; arguing, for instance, that preregistration discourages data exploration and so stifles discovery. In this paper, we argue the opposite: Open Science practices are liberating and can foster creativity. Open Science practices are liberating because they (a) enable us to explore data transparently and comfortably, (b) reward quality, which is under our control, rather than outcomes, which are not, and (c) reduce the chokehold of needing to find ‘positive’ results for career advancement. Open Science practices can foster creativity because they (a) cultivate an open and flexible mindset, (b) create a more collaborative and constructive climate, and (c) generate more accurate information and make it more accessible. In sum, Open Science liberates researchers more than it constrains them.

Implementation of a project work requires not only a reliable human resources, but also must be supported by a good management. Planning project activities is an issue that is very important because it is the basis for project planning in order to be able to finish the projects implemented with time and cost optimal. Method PERT and CPM is a management tool that is associated with the planning and control of costs and time on a project. Both of these methods can be applied in carrying out the project, so that all work can be run according to plan and provide more satisfactory results.The purpose of this study was to evaluate the time and cost Development Project Market Sarimalaha Tidore Islands, North Maluku. In searching for the possibility of achieving time a project that has been planned in the schedule with the analysis using PERT method and analyze the time and cost of the project through the acceleration of activity using CPM method. The data used data is market development project Sarimalaha Tidore Islands..From the research that has been carried out showed that that the possibility of the project is completed in accordance with the Time scedulle based analysis using PERT method amounted to 98.42%. For the analysis of acceleration events with CPM method showed that that the maximum acceleration of the process of acceleration occurs when the project can be accelerated up to 162,17 days from 170 days when the original plan and the cost of the project rose to Rp.8.857.795.386,00 of plan costs prior to acceleration is Rp.8,775,686,914.00. Thus a reduction in project time for 7,83 days and increase the cost of Rp.82.108.472,00 at the time of reaching the maximum acceleration.

The association between emotion regulation, physiological arousal, and performance in math anxiety
Authors: Pizzie Rachel , Kraemer David J. M.
Published: July 2018

Emotion regulation (ER) strategies may reduce the negative relationship between math anxiety and mathematics accuracy, but different strategies may differ in their effectiveness. We recorded electrodermal activity (EDA) to examine the effect of physiological arousal on performance during different applied ER strategies. We explored how ER strategies might affect the decreases in accuracy attributed to physiological arousal in high math anxious (HMA) individuals. Participants were instructed to use cognitive reappraisal (CR), expressive suppression (ES), or a “business as usual” strategy. During the ES condition, HMA individuals showed decreases in math accuracy associated with increased EDA, compared to low math anxious (LMA) individuals. For both HMA and LMA groups, CR reduced the association between physiological arousal and math accuracy, such that even elevated physiological arousal levels no longer had a negative association with math accuracy. These results show that CR provides a promising technique for ameliorating the negative relationship between math anxiety and math accuracy.
