Working from home in 2020 – Lessons learned to leverage these learnings going forward as emerging leaders and a remote office workforce
Authors: Ute Franzen-Waschke
Published: September 2022

This paper summarises some of the data that has been collected and presented in various contemporary articles on the challenges organisations and office workers have faced while working from home (WFH). What Bernstein, Blunden, Brodsky, Sohn and Waber call the largest experiment in history has already produced initial sets of data about how productive the workforce was in their home offices, and how happy or unhappy employees were while working from home. Productivity and employee happiness have always been focal points in the discussion about working from home. Before the pandemic hit, one of the biggest fears in many organisations was that WFH would negatively impact employee productivity, and employees were likewise sceptical about how one could separate private and working life in a healthy manner while working from home. The scope of this paper is about how working from home or anywhere has impacted employees and organizations. The data collected to-date indicates a decline in wellbeing and engagement and highlights a need for leaders and office workers to become more adept in managing their needs to continue to thrive in the workplace. Coaching can be one means to support and enhance this learning and development process and help ease the transition into the workplace of the future.

Published: September 2022

The increase in the consumption the fosil fuel has led to the search for alternative source. But plant which serves as alternative source has lignocellulosic material, which includes cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin (lignocellulosic complex), Biogas produced from various lignocellulosic biomass, such as hardwood, agricultural, or forest residues, can be a useful replacement for the conventional energy production. Several physical, structural and compositional factors has the ability to stop the hydrolysis of cellulose present in biomass to simple sugar and other organic compounds that can later be converted to biofuels. The aim of pretreatment is to make the cellulose accessible to hydrolysis and to get rid of the recalcitrant lignin for conversion to fuels to be possible. Various pretreatment techniques change the physical and chemical structure of the lignocellulosic biomass and improve hydrolysis rates. During the past few years a large number of pretreatment methods have been developed, including alkali treatment, ammonia explosion, and others. Many methods have been shown to result in high sugar yields, above 90% of the theoretical yield for lignocellulosic biomasses such as woods, grasses, corn, and so on. This research work looks at acid-base pretreatment process methods. It also showed that this method works and can recover high percentage of simple sugar for fermentation. It adopts the technique of dilute acid low temperature.

Influence of semantic priming and word frequency on homograph processing
Authors:   Vinh University, Nghe An, Viet Nam, Ba Tien TRAN
Published: September 2022

Semantic priming and word frequency effects have been actively researched to provide insights into the cognitive process, attention, memory, and applications in computational models for translation. This paper investigated the influence of semantic priming and word frequency on visual word recognition by native speakers of English. Three experiments were conducted to throw light on the mechanism of meaning activation based on how the homographs were processed in isolation and in contexts with semantic priming. The homographs used in the present study were ones with the same spellings, but with different pronunciation and meanings. Thus, the reading of the words would give clues to which meaning was activated. The findings suggest that the word frequency and personal familiarity have more influence on the choice of meaning activation of homographs than semantic priming.

Critical thinking in teaching and learning English for Vietnamese students: The case of textbook Life Pre-Intermediate (Vietnam edition
Authors:   Vinh University, Thi Ha VU , Thi To Hang NGUYEN ,   Vinh University
Published: September 2022

To improve the effectiveness of English teaching and learning, it is necessary for learners to develop critical thinking skills. Despite being a common-used skill of students worldwide, it has not been effectively acquired by Vietnamese students when using English textbooks as Life Pre-Intermediate (Vietnam edition). Using the methodological triangulation, we set the task of helping English learners and their teachers in conceiving, designing, implementing and operating critical thinking construction in the textbook, and in relevance to their background knowledge. The results of a survey of freshmen at Vinh University show that the participants' capacity of critical thinking, their embodied experience and learning methods are rather far from what the textbook requires. Therefore, the essential way to learning and teaching English as a second language with Life Pre-Intermediate is to re-recognize and adhere to the principles of foreign language teaching and learning, and that teachers need to play the role of advisors.

Published: September 2022

In this paper, we introduce the concept of second order partial derivatives in the extended sense for nonconvex functions and prove a formula computing the extended Hessian in terms of the second order partial derivatives in the extended sense. We show that the sum, difference, product, and quotient of functions that are twice differentiable at a point are functions that are twice differentiable at that point in the extended sense. We also show why the counterpart of the second order differentiability in the extended sense on Rn does not appear in variational analysis.

Safety and Mobility Analysis of Rolling Slowdown for Work Zones: Comparison with Full Closure
Authors: Nafakh Abdullah Jalal , Davila Franklin Vargas , Zhang Yunchang , Fricker Jon D. , Abraham Dulcy M.
Published: September 2022

There are times when the traffic lanes through a work zone must be kept clear for activities such as placing overhead beams, erecting overhead signs, and installing power lines, and other temporary roadway work activities. As an alternative to a full road closure, a rolling slowdown can typically provide up to 30 minutes to complete such activities without bringing approaching traffic to a complete halt. Using data from recent rolling slowdowns and full closures carried on the Indiana interstate network and a simulation approach, this study compares rolling slowdowns to full closures from safety and mobility standpoints. The study suggests that while rolling slowdowns are more impactful in terms of travel times, they are a safer option than full closures as they often form a forward moving shockwave causing, lower hard braking rates, and consequently a lower probability of causing a crash.

A Thomistic Sexual Realism
Authors: Jennings Harrison ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: September 2022

Sexual realism has traditionally held that our categories of sex refer to something real about our biology. Sexual non-realism, on the other hand, either partially or wholly rejects this position. Sexual non-realists typically point to intersexuality as evidence that our categories of sex are not inherent to nature but are culturally constructed. This paper makes use of the work of Carrie Hull in her book The Ontology of Sex to explore the philosophical backgrounds of sexual non-realism and to make a general case for sexual realism from a Thomistic framework.

I suspect many of you are also feeling some level of exhaustion, so writing and publishing may not be a priority. I get it, which is why DttP might seem a little light of late. That being said, since GODORT is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, and I thought it’d be worth taking a look at early publications to see how far we’ve come. The oldest issue available online is from November 1974, and I found a piece written by Jaia Heymann, who was elected chair of the Clearinghouse September 1974 through March 1975, and later stepped into the role of editor in September 1976 and stayed until June the next year. It’s quite funny and interesting that some of the same problems DttP was experiencing then are still happening, including the need for content. I hope you take the time to read her piece!

2022 GODORT ALA Annual Round Up
Authors: Sittel Robbie
Published: September 2022

GODORT again hosted our committee and general membership meetings virtually. The ability to host these meetings virtually has been a boon to our round table. The virtual meetings provide an opportunity for participation by members and non-members who may not be able to attend ALA Annual and provides an opportunity to use GODORT’s time at the in-person conference to host events and programs that will hopefully attract new members and highlight the importance of government information.
Uterine rupture secondary to undiagnosed placental site trophoblastic tumor: case report
Authors: Hoch Karin , Tavares Arthur Antolini , Benetti-pinto Cristina Laguna , Yela Daniela Angerame
Published: September 2022

Placental site trophoblastic tumor is a rare and malignant form of gestational trophoblastic disease. Its incidence rate is 1/50.000-100.000 pregnancies and accounts for less than 3% of all cases of gestational trophoblastic disease. In addition to its infrequency, the tumor lacks pathognomonic sonographic features, delaying diagnosis until immunohistochemical staining of uterine samples. Early diagnosis is key to avoid metastatic disease. We report a case of an undiagnosed placental site trophoblastic tumor, which caused uterine rupture and hemorrhagic shock.
Desplazamientos en la arquitectura del museo. Tres respuestas a los cambios culturales de la sociedad contemporánea
Authors: De Esteban Garbayo Javier , Barba Rodríguez Daniel
Published: September 2022

La relevancia del museo como agente de los cambios sociales, culturales y urbanos en la ciudad europea no ha hecho más que incrementarse durante las últimas décadas. Frente al museo tradicional, algunos de los nuevos centros han afrontado las demandas promovidas por artistas, arquitectos, comisarios y público manifestando los cambios en los procesos de creación, difusión y recepción del arte. El objetivo del artículo es abordar estos cambios mediante el análisis de tres casos paradigmáticos en la última década en Europa: Palais de Tokyo en París, Fondazione Prada en Milán, y más recientemente KANAL-Centre Pompidou en Bruselas. En los tres casos se añade la reconversión de un patrimonio industrial previo en emergentes centros para la cultura contemporánea ejemplificado un interés por actualizar la infraestructura de la modernidad. También la importancia de la institución cultural como impulsora del proyecto urbano en la ciudad europea y como inversión de lo público en el marco de la globalización actual.
De los museos neoliberales a una nueva institucionalidad ecosocial: el Guggenheim como efecto insostenible
Authors: Martínez Pablo
Published: September 2022

Durante la década de los noventa se inauguraron en el Estado español dos proyectos museísticos de ambición y proyección internacional: el MACBA Museu d’Art Contemporani de Barcelona y el Guggenheim Bilbao. Por su naturaleza público-privada ambos museos podrían ser enmarcados bajo el calificativo de «museos neoliberales», una denominación que se aproxima a la establecida por la crítica e historiadora del arte Rosalynd E. Krauss en 1990 en «The Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism Museum». Mediante una lectura detallada de este texto y a partir de obras de la llamada crítica institucional de la colección del MACBA este ensayo analiza las implicaciones que se derivan de la construcción de estos dos museos bajo el paradigma de la arquitectura del arte minimal y el modo en que su funcionamiento se aleja del necesario para afrontar la crisis civilizatoria derivada del colapso ecológico. Desde esta perspectiva ecosocial ni el «efecto Guggenheim» ni el MACBA entendido como reclamo de atracción turística resultan en la actualidad sostenibles en términos medioambientales o sociales. A modo de conclusión se propone una imagen como ficción especulativa para empezar a imaginar un posible museo ecosocial.

Det danske arbejdsmarked er på en og samme tid præget af mangel på kvalificeret arbejdskraft og høj ledighed for dimittender  fra en række universitetsuddannelser. Arbejdskraftmanglen ses f.eks. i små- og mellemstore bygge- og anlægsvirksomheder og  på sosu-området, hvor det gennem flere år har svært at skaffe faglærte. Imens er ledigheden for nyuddannede akademikere  vokset markant. Ifølge en analyse fra tænketanken Mandag Morgen steg dimittendledigheden i 2010’erne fra 16 til 40 %. Højdespringerne i statistikken er historikere, biologer og kommunikationsuddannede, men andre kandidater er også hårdt ramt.
Balance på arbejdsmarkedet er en forudsætning for vækst og velstand
Authors: Agner Damm Emilie , Nielsen Jon , Lund Jensen Troels
Published: September 2022

En nødvendig betingelse for, at Danmark også i fremtiden kan have et velfungerende og effektivt arbejdsmarked, er, at arbejdsstyrken besidder de kompetencer, som efterspørges af virksomheder og den offentlige sektor. På den baggrund har vi foretaget en fremskrivning af både arbejdsstyrkens uddannelsesniveau og efterspørgslen på forskellige typer af arbejdskraft. Artiklen viser, at Danmark kommer til at mangle faglærte og samtidig har et overskud af ufaglært arbejdskraft. Der er et stort økonomisk potentiale i at løse disse ubalancer gennem øget uddannelse fremfor at lade markedskræfterne herske.

EU’s økonomiske politik – i lyset af Corona-krisen
Authors: Sørensen Christen
Published: September 2022

Artiklen fokuserer på koordineringen af Eurolandenes finanspolitik. Koordinering er den centrale finanspolitiske udfordring som følge af krav om enstemmighed ved budgetændringer og et budget på kun omkring 1 pct. af BNP. Siden etableringen af Den Økonomiske og Monetære Union fra 1999 er kløften mellem nordlige og sydlige medlemslande blevet markant forøget, når kriteriet er samfundsøkonomisk indre og ydre balance – og der er ikke udsigt til, at Corona-krisen ændrer på dette. Det vises, at reglerne for koordineringen af finanspolitikken ikke har et fagligt – men et ideologisk – grundlag – ligesom de var vildledende op til Finanskrisen. Derfor bør disse regler ændres.
From Competition State to Green Entrepreneurial State: New challenges for Denmark
Authors: Voldsgaard Asker , Mazzucato Mariana , Conway Rowan
Published: September 2022

The 2019 Danish Climate Law marks a shift from the growth-focused competition state towards a mission-oriented entrepreneurial state that promises to bring the Danish way of life within planetary boundaries. In this article, we analyse the institutional challenges that arise when reorienting the state in this direction.
Mod en økologisk stat?
Authors: Holm Jesper
Published: September 2022

Med en summarisk gennemgang af miljøreguleringens historiske tilblivelse og udvikling trækker jeg statsteoretiske iagttagelser med ind i kritisk, tværfaglig analyse af miljøpolitikkens manglende effektivitet. Kritikken bliver sammen med EU's voksende betydning medskaber af en voldsom statslig vækst i styringsapparat, der dog gradvist udhules i styringsformåen. Bidraget gennemgår forskellige statskoncepter fra miljøstat over supervisionsstat til en bæredygtig stat mod til sidst at tegne konturer af en økologisk stat i et nulvækst samfund.

Jeg vil gerne bede staten om at få min ret til at være aktivist tilbage
Authors: Johansen Anna Bjerre
Published: September 2022

Jeg forestiller mig, de fleste tror, at unge klimaaktivister er mennesker, der drømmer meget. At vi, måske både naivt og idealistisk anlagte, er ved at briste af visioner for fremtiden, forestillinger om nye samfundsformer og tanker om udformningen af den grønne retfærdige verden, vi længes efter og kræver, hver dag vi går på gaden.
Studerendes psykosociale problemer og afkobling
Authors: Wulf-Andersen Trine , Larsen Lene , Stigemo Aske Thor Basselbjerg
Published: September 2022

Mange studerende på de videregående uddannelser mistrives på forskellige måder og af mange forskellige årsager. Denne artikel bygger på dybdegående interviews med 47 studerende fra syv danske videregående uddannelser om deres erfaringer med psykosociale problemer. Artiklens formål er at vise, hvordan f.eks. stress ikke er et isoleret fænomen, men et spørgsmål omhvordan personlige, sociale og institutionelle forhold fletter sammen og bliver til psykosociale problemer og uddannelsesmæssige eksklusionsdynamikker. Analytisk fremhæver artiklen, med Camillas forløb som eksempel, hvordan studerende kæmper med en række afkoblingsdynamikker ift. at finde vej tilbage til studiet efter et sygdomsforløb.
