Since time immemorial, music has been embedded in life. It seeps into arts and culture, finds expression in language, and has great affect on lifestyle. The origin of music dates back to the earliest of civilization, thereby making it difficult to pinpoint the exact date whence it started. Robert Schumann, a German composer, noted, “Perhaps it is precisely the mystery of her origins which accounts for the charm of her beauty.

Whether vocal or instrumental, music can be viewed as a form of language or speech, possessing subtler shades of meaning than the spoken word and yet displaying much more emotive force. There seems to be something innate in human being that gives them the capacity to understand and respond to musical tones, rhythms, and pattern.

This year (2013), Chinese education department are under discuss whether the English test will be taken out of National Examinations of College Entrance or the total score should cut down from 150 to 100. It has reflected that our country is in a dilemma whether we should take English into NCEE (National College Entrance Examinations) or not. However, the problem is not exams but how to test and how to teach English in schools.

As a primary school teacher for 16 years, the writer has found out that all teachers have to use a textbook to teach and have to finish the textbook and take exams according to the book. If students do better in exams, teachers’ value will improve. Otherwise, they will not be welcomed by school headmaster. These really hold back our English teaching. All our teachers are thinking about how to help students achieve high score not language function, that, understanding and communication.

After many years teaching, the writer has found out that English learning goes well with exams.

Inquiry learning is a concept familiar to Brazilian librarians, who have been expressing concern about their contribution in innovating the learning process. It is therefore necessary that future librarians experience this learning strategy during their education. This study aimed to investigate: 1) how library students exposed repeatedly to strategies of inquiry learning react; 2) the difficulties they encounter in the process; 3) and what types of learning they acquire. Data were collected through in depth interviews with undergraduate library students taking an Information Literacy Course. Data analysis was based on Kuhlthau’s ISP model (2004) and in the five types of learning (Kuhlthau; Maniotes & Caspari, 2012) Results, that cannot be generalized, show that students reacted positively to the strategy, although they reported several difficulties. In conclusion the repetition of the inquiry learning process became important for students to feel more secure and confident and for their difficulties to be minimized.

School Librarians’ Roles
Authors: Elkins, Ph.D. Aaron J. , Wood Jennifer Luetkemeye , Mardis Marcia
Published: February 2021

School librarians’ role definition has become increasingly important in light of national trends regarding performance evaluation. This exploratory research included a national survey of school librarians’ perceptions of their roles, influences on their role performance, and the perceived fairness of their performance evaluations. Preliminary survey results suggested that school librarians were performing different types of extra-role behaviors, many of them more than once a month. Of the roles described in the professional standards, the school librarians surveyed indicated that they felt the information specialist role was the most important, and was the role they most frequently engaged in, which is in contrast to the instructional partnering role emphasized by national professional guidelines. The majority of survey participants felt that their performance evaluations were either to a small extent or not at all accurate assessments of their performance. The results suggest that a closer coordination between role performance and evaluation is warranted, as well as further examination of the survey data.
Awards with Rewards
Authors: Garrison Dr. Kasey
Published: February 2021

Including award-winning literature in children’s library collections is often openly stated in a library’s collection development policy. Hateley (2012) notes these “meaningful markers” as a way “to grant our wish of someone somewhere, somehow having read all the books, and worked out which one is best” (p. 190). In an age where librarians are pushed to their limits with time, budget, and curriculum, such designators are useful in helping to develop and maintain a quality collection. At the same time, Hateley (2012) enlists readers to acknowledge the unavoidable human subjectivity involved in the judging process of literary book awards:

What must not be forgotten, however, is that this superhuman work is undertaken by humans—passionate and knowledgeable humans, to be sure, but humans nonetheless. To automatically rely on award winners for collection development may mask the necessary fallibility and idiosyncrasies of individual judges or judging panels. (p. 197)

In a study of “Children’s-Choice” State Book Awards in the US, Storey (1992) further notes censorship issues associated with the selection of books on the award lists and, thus, the availability of books to the children readers meant to select the winners. Storey’s (1992) research reports on a survey of school librarians about censorship related to these book awards. The librarians in the study noted that censorship was “expected and accepted” (Storey, 1992, p. 1). They also supported the use of award lists for selection and collection development which is the focus of the current study reported in this paper. Specifically, the purpose was to investigate youth librarians’ perceptions of using award lists for collection development and to also survey their collections for the presence of five children’s book awards.

Residential development in urban areas was requiring extensive landscape changes. This development caused the decreases of urban green land. The high rate of CO2 in the atmosphere is one impact of the reduction of green land in urban area.The existing plants are unable to sequester the amount of CO2 in atmosphere. Plans especially trees are landscape elements which can reduce CO2 in the atmosphere through the photosynthesis process. With this research we can see and know how large the benefits of tree for carbon storage and sequestration in residential. This research was held in two residential that Bukit Cimanggu City and Yasmin, Tanah Sareal, Bogor. Analysis was done to spatial data using ArcView and CITYgreen5.4 extension. This report showed that the greater of trees canopy and trees number then the greater of the amount of carbon storage and sequestration. The result of this research are tabular data and spatial data with simulations examples of open green space (trees) from analysis area in each residential.

A robust management for Indonesian typical home garden or usually called as “pekarangan” is needed to resolve environmental problems in rural landscape, particularly in developing countries. A well planned and managed landscape practices may suppress social economical and ecological development in rural marginal society. Therefore by revitalizing pekarangan systems, marginal communities would have the possibility to advance their asset of landscape services through plant biodiversity (H’) and carbon stock (C) inside pekarangan. The aim of this research is to develop basic landscape service of plant biodiversity and carbon stock, to analyze the correlation between both of them, and to arrange recommendation for revitalizing pekarangan. The results show that pekarangan has diverse plant biodiversity (0.77-3.57) and diverse carbon stock (0.13-136.20 Mg/ha. However plant diversity in mid to high scale (H’ > 1.00) reach 98.95% and high carbon stock (C > 10.00 Mg/ha) reach 45.83%. And there is positive correlation among both of them (Y=0.0099X + 2.0299). Those landscape services provided by pekarangan account to mimic forestry landscape.

Native tapioca starch has limited application in food industry due to its physicochemical characteristics that are not suitable for processing conditions, such as unstable at high temperature heating, acidic conditions, stirring, and undergoing syneresis. This deficiency can be overcome by applying a dual modification involving hydroxypropylation and cross-linking with phosphates. In this study, modification was carried out by hydroxypropylation using propylene oxide (8, 10, and 12%), followed by cross-linking with a combination of sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) and sodium phosphate (STMP) with a ratio of 2%: 5%. The modified tapioca starch had water content of 7.82-8.19% with a pH value of 7.04-7.26, and phosphorus resiude of <0.4%. There were no change in starch granules and type of cristallline (A-tyype) of starch modifications. The dual modified starch with the addition of 10% propylene oxide concentration with a mixture of STMP : STTP ratio (2%:5% was selected to have acceptable physicochemical properties. It showed lowered pasting temperature, minimum break down viscosity, increased peak and setback viscosity compared to that of native starch. The modified tapioca starch also showed more heat stable and stirring resistant than that of native tapioca starch.

To make a sponge cake, a mix of emulsifiers provides an improved aeration. The aim of this research was to formulate the mix of distilled monoglycerides (DMG) and polyglycerol esters (PGE), which had yellowish color, in a gel form for its application in sponge cake. The formula of the gel consists of primary and secondary food additives: 15.3% DMG, 6.5% PGE, 25.8% other emulsifiers and carrier including colorings (ponceau and tartrazine), 26.1% sorbitol, and 26.3% water. DMG and PGE had different colors from their expected standard color, white. The formula of DMG (15.3%) and PGE (6.5%) mix, comprising 21.8% of the formula above, was re-formulated by 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, and 0:100 ratios of DMG to PGE. The physical characteristics of the formula consisting of color characteristic by chromameter, sensory score by R-Index method and gel spreadability were compared to the formula using standard materials of DMG and PGE. The formula was then applied for sponge cake. The specific gravity of sponge cake batter, height of sponge cake after baking, as well as sensory characteristics of crumb structure and crumb color of sponge cake were analyzed. The results of physical characterization of formula revealed that the use of 100% of PGE and the use of DMG up to 50% did not significantly differ from the standard formula. The combination of DMG and PGE formula did not affect batter specific gravity, cake height and crumb structure, but affected color of the crumb.

Avrupa Birliği (AB) için dış politika önemli ölçüde tartışmalı bir alandır. Uzun yıllar boyunca, AB bu alanda etkili bir dış politika oluşturmaya çalışmıştır. AB, çabalarının sonucunda, tartışmalı da olsa bir dış ve güvenlik politikası oluşturmuştur. Bu bağlamda, bu politika alanına AB vatandaşları tarafından seçilen Avrupa Parlamentosu (AP) üyelerinin etkisi sorulması gereken sorulardan biridir. AB’nin resmi dokümanlarına göre, AP’nin, AB dış politikasını etkilemek için çok az resmi yetkisi vardır. AP, AB’nin dış politikasını biçimlendirmek için daha fazla yetki almaya uğraşmaktadır. AB, etkin bir dış politikaya sahip olmamasına rağmen, AP, AB’nin dış politika mekanizmaları aracılığıyla dış politika meselelerine etki etmeye çalışmaktadır. Bu çerçevede, odak noktası AP’nin dış politika meselelerine yönelik eğilimidir. Bu makale, normatif güç Avrupa yaklaşımını ve Ukrayna örnek olayını, dış politika konularına dair AB ve AP’nin tutum ve eylemlerini analiz etmek için kullanacaktır. Bu makale normatif güç yaklaşımıyla AB’nin Ukrayna ile ilişkilerinde AP’nin rolünü açıklamaya çalışacaktır.

Batı Balkanlar’da ihracata dayalı ve iç talep çekişli büyüme hipotezlerinin birlikte hareket edip etmediğini anlayabilmek için 2000-2019 yıllarına ait veriler Fourier Yaklaşımı (birim kök) ve Hatemi-J. nedensellik testleri ile analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen istatistiki bulgular; net ihracat ve iç talep bileşenlerinden oluşan reel gayri safi yurt içi hasılatın durağan olduğunu ve yapısal kırılmaların varlığında dahi her iki hipotezin uyum içinde yürütüldüğünü ifade etmektedir. Ancak her bir ülke için tek tek Hatemi-J. nedensellik testi bulgularına bakıldığında Sırbistan, Karadağ ve Kuzey Makedonya için ihracata dayalı büyüme hipotezinin geçerli olduğu; Arnavutluk’ta ise net ihracat ve iç talep arasında herhangi bir nedensellik ilişkisine rastlanmamıştır. Hırvatistan ve Kosova’da ise her iki hipotez birlikte hareket etmektedir, net ihracat ve iç talep arasında geri besleme ilişkisi mevcuttur.

Published: February 2021

El hablar de feminicidios en estos años, trae consigo la obligación de ver más allá de una cuestión policiaca o el homicidio de una mujer, ya que, de manera adicional al crimen, los feminicidios deben ser abordados como un problema social, mismo que implica aspectos de inequidad de género, desigualdad, discriminación y estereotipos. El presente artículo busca reflexionar sobre la forma en la que las creencias preconcebidas y estereotipadas de las mujeres en México, pueden gestar expresiones de culpabilización de las víctimas de feminicidio. Para desarrollar este texto, se hace primeramente un abordaje teórico de la raíz de estas creencias, para posteriormente hacer un análisis de sus implicaciones en un caso concreto, desde el enfoque de los medios de comunicación y de una muestra de padres de familia. Como conclusión, se demuestra que las víctimas no únicamente sufren por las vejaciones y asesinato cometido por el homicida, sino también, por los juicios estereotipados de la sociedad que las rodea.

Los informes de las evaluaciones censales en el Perú, informes de progreso anual, fichas de observación de las prácticas docentes; demuestran los bajos niveles de desempeño en la consecución de resultados en las competencias del campo de las ciencias sociales en secundaria. Los antecedentes y la teoría consultada brindan perspectivas teóricas subjetivas para lograr aprendizajes; percibiéndose la antinomia entre la práctica y la teoría docente en aula. Surgiendo la necesidad de configurar una propuestas innovadora y actualizada, el objetivo principal de la presente investigación es diseñar y aplicar un modelo de aprendizaje con perspectiva didáctica contextual. Responde a un enfoque de análisis cuantitativo, investigación experimental aplicada a una muestra de 40 escolares del segundo año de educación secundaria, evaluados mediante un cuestionario con perspectivas didácticas contextualizadas. La significatividad de los resultados permite concluir que aplicando el modelo es posible avanzar en los niveles de desempeño para el desarrollo de las competencias en las ciencias sociales como área académica del nivel secundario. Asimismo, se evidenció que contribuye de manera concreta en el desarrollo de las capacidades académicas y didácticas de los maestros, fortifica la enseñanza, motiva y posibilita el proceso de aprendizaje y el desarrollo de las habilidades fundamentales del aprendiz.
Marketing basado en la fe: Conexión entre religión y negocios
Authors: Salas-Canales Hugo Jesús
Published: February 2021

A lo largo de su existencia, el ser humano siempre ha tenido la necesidad de creer en la existencia de un ente superior a él, dando origen a la religión. La definición de esta última ha ido evolucionando y con el paso del tiempo, ha despertado el interés de diversas organizaciones dispuestas a satisfacer las demandas de los consumidores (llamados fieles), ocasionando la influencia de la religión en el marketing, la cual data de fines del siglo XVIII. Dicha situación ha originado posteriormente la aparición del marketing basado en la fe, como una vertiente del marketing enfocada en la comercialización de bienes y servicios de carácter religioso, atendiendo las necesidades de este tipo de consumidor. Para el presente artículo de revisión, se ha realizado una exhaustiva búsqueda bibliográfica y tuvo como objetivo, desarrollar un marco teórico sobre el marketing basado en la fe a través del desarrollo de sus conceptos más relevantes; además, se pudo detectar la escasez de información en lengua española sobre esta temática. Se pudo concluir que la religión ejerce un rol muy importante en el comportamiento del consumidor del siglo XXI, dándole forma a los mercados globales.
