Authors: Falowo Olumuyiwa Olusola , Otuaga Moses Philip
Published: December 2022

Assessment of groundwater resource around an abattoir site in Igoba area of Ondo State, southwestern Nigeria has been carried out, within 1.3 km radius from the abattoir site in order to determine the influence of the effluents discharge on quality of groundwater in the area, so as to forestall outbreak of diseases that can endanger human health. Eleven water samples were analyzed for physical, chemical and microbial parameters; and result subjected to spatial and statistical analysis using analysis of variance and Duncan’s multiple range of variance.  The obtained parameters mean ± SD are pH (5.5±0.50), turbidity (10±5.9 NTU), temperature (27.75±0.35 °C), conductivity (240±105.99µs/cm), total dissolved solid (158.9±46.8 mg/L), total hardness (92.1±14.2 mg/L), nitrate (7.3±4.3 mg/L), iron (0.24±0.04 mg/L), total alkalinity (14.57±4.87 mg/L), manganese (0.017±0.0079 mg/L), calcium (26.53±8.7 mg/L), magnesium (12.20±8.1 mg/L), chloride (21.86±7.39 mg/L), sodium (14.71±4.85 mg/L), bicarbonate (13.95±4.48 mg/L), nitrite (0.0336±0.0269 mg/L), dissolved oxygen (1.82±0.52 mg/L), chemical oxygen demand (133.1±53.7 mg/L), biological oxygen demand (29.55±10.93 mg/L), total coliform (9.36±6.05 cfu/100ml) and E.coli (0.5090±0.4700 cfu/100ml). The analysis of variance showed that statistically significant difference occurs among the parameters (p<0.05). All the measured parameters are within the standard limits of WHO and FEPA standards except pH, turbidity, BOD, and total coliform for samples collected within 610 m proximate distance from the site. This contamination is strongly aided by topography of the environment, as the discharged effluents/waste water flows westward and southwardly. Subsequently there is need for proper water treatment and environmental sanitation to prevent outbreak of epidemics and infections, while the government should enforce thorough regulations guiding establishment and operation of abattoir in the site if it can’t be relocated.

Authors: Odhipio Deogratias Anguandia , Kakule Maombi Kalimuli
Published: December 2022

The locality of Mabuku is located in the eastern DRC, in a landscape where tectonic effects are visible. The main cause of this environmental disturbance is known as tectonics. This study aims to determine the influence of regional tectonics (like Kibalian, Ruzizian and Kibarian tectonics) on rocks of the locality of Mabuku, and their types. After the fieldwork and the data processing, we got the following results: firstly, none filled faults were due to constraints of the compressive type, which are also similar to those affecting the formations of the group of Ruzizi. Secondly, the schistosity of these rocks was due to extensive type stresses and its direction is similar to Kibarian tectonics. Moreover, the veins were generated by a constraint of the compressive type, bounding them to Kibalian tectonics. In conclusion, in the locality of Mabuku there’s a combination of the Ruzizian, Kibalian, and Kibarian tectonics.

Authors: Al-Achi Antoine , Daram Apoorva , Ganapuram Sirisha , Shridhar Deo Shreyas , Didarians Roobina
Published: December 2022

Background: The 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion (MPP+) is a neurotoxin. It inhibits mitochondrial complex I by interfering with oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria. That causes ATP depletion and eventual cell apoptosis. Objective: This study investigates steviol's effect, a major metabolite of stevia obtained from Stevia rebaudiana, on MPP+-induced apoptosis of differentiated rat adrenal pheochromocytoma (PC-12) cells. Methods: The PC12 cells were differentiated into neuronal cells by adding nerve growth factor and then treated with MPP+ and steviol in different concentrations; twenty-four hours later, two in vitro toxicity assays. 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-Yl)-2,5-Diphenyltetrazolium Bromide (MTT) and Lactate Dehydrogenase Leakage assays (LDH) were conducted to detect the cells’ viability. Results: The present study demonstrated that steviol caused statistically significant cell damage and inhibited the proliferation of the differentiated rat PC-12 cell line in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, the results from MTT and LDH assays complemented the outcome of our experiments that steviol acted synergistically in the presence of MPP+ to increase cell death in differentiated rat PC-12 cells. Conclusion: The data obtained from MTT and LDH assays indicated that steviol acted synergistically in the presence of MPP+ free radicals, increasing cytotoxicity. Both assays revealed that steviol aggravated the cytotoxicity produced by MPP+ in differentiated rat PC-12 cells. However, as the MTT assay does not correspond to mitochondrial dysfunction, it may give a poor estimate of cytotoxicity of steviol as compared to the LDH assay that quantifies the damage to the cell membrane, especially when there are small-scale variations in cellular reduction capacity.

Published: December 2022

In this experimental work an extended release matrix tablet of Benidipine Hydrochloride (BH) has been prepared to extend drug release for more than 18 hr which has advantage of continuous 24 hr control of blood pressure (BP) in hypertension patient, showing long-lasting pharmacological activity and increases the patient compliance. Benidipine is a calcium channel blocker that is used for the treatment of mild to moderate hypertension and angina pectoris and BH extended release tablets reduce the side effects associated with multiple dosing used during conventional tablets. Tablets are prepared tablets containing different polymers concentration through direct compression method. The in vitro percentage drug release and drug release mechanism were studied. From the drug release mechanism, the tablets showed the Higuchi square root model and R2 values for batch F2 (R2 =0.998) indicates that the drug released by diffusion mechanism and from Peppas equation n value 0.720 (range 0.89-1) indicates that diffusion–erosion mechanisms resulting from swelling and hydration behavior of Chitosan and along with HPMC K 100 M and Eudragit R S 100 extending drug release. Different pharmacokinetics parameters has been studied from results of in vivo study by using PK solver software which shows that marketed conventional BH tablet reached peak plasma concentration of 830.986 µg/ml after 2 hr of administration, where as selected optimized prepared tablets reached the maximum concentration of 708.83 µg/ml after 1 hr of administration, but it continues to release drug for more than 36 hr when in vivo was carried out in carried out on white New Zealand rabbits. These results proved that drug is released slowly for prolonged period of time and achieving better BP control. So based on this research outcome and results, we may conclude our objective is achieve by extending drug release pattern of BH.

Published: December 2022

In this study, the effects of dry, cryogenic cooling (LN2/CO2) environments and different cutting parameters on power consumption in turning AISI 52100 bearing steel with finite element analysis (FEA) were investigated. ThirdWave AdvantEdge software was used for FEA. In the analyzes, dry and cryogenic cooling (LN2/CO2) as the processing medium, three different cutting speeds (100 m/min, 150 m/min and 200 m/min), three different feed rates (0.1 mm/rev, 0.15 mm/rev and 0.2 mm/rev) and a fixed depth of cut (0.5 mm) were selected as machining parameters. According to the FE analysis results, it was observed that the power consumption in turning of AISI 52100 bearing steel in cryogenic cooling (LN2/CO2) environment decreased compared to dry environment in all cutting parameters. In the turning experiments performed in dry and cryogenic cooling (LN2/CO2) environments, it was observed that the minimum power consumption was measured at low cutting speeds and high feed rates. In this context, the lowest power consumption was measured as 72 W at 100 m/min cutting speed, 0.2 mm/rev feed rate in LN2 environment, while the highest power consumption was 217.3 W at 200 m/min cutting speed, 0.1 mm/rev feed rate in dry environment.

Antimicrobial Resistance Rates of Acinetobacter spp. Isolated from Adult Patients in a State Hospital Between 2017-2021
Authors: TUNA Duygu Kübra , DEMİRTAŞ Hande
Published: December 2022

Objective: Acinetobacter species lead to extremely serious infections, particularly in hospitalized patients, and in patients with impaired host defense. The high rates of resistance against several antibiotics detected in recent years have created serious issues in treatments of different diseases. We aimed to examine antibiotic resistance profiles of Acinetobacter species isolated from patients who are treated as outpatients in polyclinics or hospitalized in services or intensive care units (ICU), against various antimicrobial therapies.
Materials and Methods: Antibiotic resistance of Acinetobacter strains isolated from 533 clinical samples collected between 2017-2021 years in Bandırma State Hospital Clinical Microbiology Laboratory were evaluated retrospectively. The identification of isolates and antibiotic susceptibility tests were performed by BD Phoenix (Becton Dickinson, USA) automated system.
Results: Most of Acinetobacter strains were isolated from respiratory secretions (32.5%) and from urine (24.4%). Of species, 63.8% were Acinetobacter baumannii, 34.9% Acinetobacter baumannii complex, 1.1% other Acinetobacter spp., 0.2% Acinetobacter lwoffii. Resistance rates to antibiotics were found as following: ciprofloxacin 91.1%, meropenem 91.3%, imipenem 89.2%, gentamicin 82.5%, trimethoprim-sulfamethaxasol 78.6%, amikacin 66.3% (highest in 2020), aztreonam 99.0% (significantly decreased in 2020), ceftriaxone 100%, ampicillin 100%, amoxicillin-clavulanate 100%, ertapenemicin 100%, cefuroxime 100%, netilmicin 62.5%, nitrofurantion 100%, colistin 4.7% and levofloxacin 87.1%. The samples collected from patients hospitalized in service and ICU were found more resistant against Ciprofloxacin, Levofloxacin, Meropenem, Imipenem, Trimethoprim/Sulfamethoxazole, Gentamicin and Amikacin (P<0.0001).
Conclusion: Colistin resistance against Acinetobacter infections was observed to be low, hence colistin could be utilized in treatments. Infection control measures have to be taken in services and ICU, and rational antibiotic use policies should be applied so as to prevent the spread of infection.

Water dropwort, an aquatic plant grown and used widely in Vietnam, is mainly grown deeply in the water. Suitable liquid nutrient solutions and shading measures are influential factors to the growth, productivity and quality of water dropwort. A two factorialexperiment was arranged in complete randomized design (CRD) with three replications. Factor A was four nutrient solutions (Faulkner, Watercress, Hoagland and Arnon, andNPK (20-20-15) 2‰) and factor B was shading method (shading with one black net, reducing 70% sunshine (20,595 Lux - 25,365 Lux) and with two black nets, reducing 85% sunshine (10,396 Lux - 12,542 Lux). The research results showed that different nutrient solutions and shading methods were significantly influenced to the growth and quality of hydroponic water dropwort. Water dropwort planted in watercress nutritious solution combined reducing 70% sunshine resulted in the hight plant height (51.8cm), high number of leaves/plant (4.6 leaves), and high plant weight (5.7 g). As a result high commercial yield of weter dropwort (2,409 kg/1,000 m2) and the highest water dropwort dry matter content (13.2%) were obtained from this treatment. Water dropwort grown in watercress nutritious solution and shading of 70% produceed stem stiffness (2.4 N.cm-2),the stem brightness (L=55,3) and nitrate content (1,301 mg.kg-1fresh matter). Water dropwort grown in Faulkner solution, Watercress-growing nutrient solution, and Hoagland and Arnon solution in poly-greenhouse gave similar plant weight and yield
English teachers blended learning teaching competencies in Angono national high school: Basis for school learning action cell
Authors: Alain Fontanilla Razalan
Published: December 2022

Blended learning became increasingly popular particularly with the introduction of COVID-19 which posed a significant issue in the field of education. Because schools in the Philippines were closed, instructors' pedagogies evolved into remote learning modalities in various forms and platforms and blended learning was introduced. Confronted with such scenario, the purpose of this study was to look at the English teachers' blended learning teaching skills at Angono National High School which served as the foundation for the School Learning Action Cell, or SLAC. Particularly, it aimed to investigate the English teachers’ level of blended learning teaching competencies with respect to online integration, data practices, and personalization by applying the descriptive type of research. Participants of this study were ten (10) Senior High School teachers of Angono National High School who were teaching English for the School Year 2021-2022. Findings of the study connotes that demographic profile of the respondents are not significant thus this failed to reject the hypothesis. Based on the findings, the paper concludes that planning and preparation are the keys in providing effective blended learning teaching. Moreover, in expectations for blended learning, student involvement should be clearly communicated and structured to complement the blended learning mode. Still, as a work in progress, this study suggests future investigation in a different location and the use of other factors in teaching competences in blended learning.

Intelligent evolutionary algorithm is an important method to solve optimization problems. Most of their inspiration comes from the laws of nature and biology. This paper proposes a new intelligent evolutionary algorithm based on the life habits of Rafflesia, which is called Rafflesia Optimization Algorithm. It mainly consists of three stages: attracting insects, swallowing insects, and spreading seeds. In the first stage, the ROA algorithm performs the local search to find the optimal solution. In the second stage, it improves execution efficiency and solution accuracy by reducing the number of individuals. In the third stage, it performs the global search to jump out of the local optimal position. In the experimental part, this paper uses numerical functions (the CEC2013 benchmark function set) and practical application problems (the logistics distribution centers location problem) to test the performance of the ROA algorithm, and compares it with seven meta-heuristics algorithms. The experimental results prove the effectiveness and practicability of the ROA algorithm.

目的：探討個案管理（以下簡稱「個管」）是否能提升自費低劑量肺部電腦斷層發現病灶的受檢者的追蹤率。方法：本研究回溯性蒐集2017年03月01日至2018年04月30日於成大醫院健康管理中心接受低劑量肺部電腦斷層檢查的受檢者資料進行研究。主要收案條件為年齡20歲以上、第一次於本中心接受肺部電腦斷層且符合早期肺癌變化需追蹤的受檢者。受檢者依個管建立前後分為2組，並比較組間年齡、性別、吸菸、肺癌家族史（三等親內罹患肺癌者）、病灶大小型態等臨床特徵及追蹤率的差異，並利用多變項羅吉斯迴歸分析影響受檢者接受追蹤的獨立因子，也使用傾向分數匹配排除組間差異作為敏感性分析。結果：經篩選後共有386位受檢者納入本研究中。個管建立後的受檢者接受追蹤的比率比較高（個管建立後：67.6%，個管建立前：43.9%，p＜0.001）。多變項羅吉斯迴歸分析顯示個管是受檢者接受追蹤的獨立因子（校正後勝算比：2.65，95%信賴區間：1.74-4.03，p＜0.001）。傾向分數匹配後多變項羅吉斯迴歸分析仍顯示個管是接受追蹤的獨立因子（校正後勝算比：2.72，95%信賴區間：1.68-4.39，p＜0.001）。結論：本研究結果顯示個管能提升受檢者的追蹤率。但受檢者的生活品質及臨床預後是否因此提升，以及此模式是否符合成本效應仍有待未來的研究探討。Purpose: The study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of case management and consultation clinic service in improving the follow-up rates of patients with lung lesions discovered by self-paid low dose computerized tomography (LDCT) lung cancer screening. Methods: We retrospectively collected information from subjects receiving LDCT lung cancer screening from March 01, 2017 to April 30, 2018 in the Health Management Center of National Cheng Kung University Hospital. The main inclusion criteria were a minimum age of 20 years, first LDCT in our unit, and the presence of lung lesions consistent with early-stage lung cancer. The enrolled subjects were divided into two groups based on whether they received case management intervention. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the independent factors associated with the following-up rate. Propensity score matching was used for sensitivity analysis. Results: A total of 386 subjects were enrolled in the study. The follow-up rate was higher in subjects with case management (67.6% with case management vs. 43.9% without case management; p value ＜ 0.001). Based on the results of multivariable analysis, case management was independently associated with follow-up rate (adjusted odds ratio: 2.65; 95% confidence interval: 1.74 to 4.03; p value ＜ 0.001). After propensity score matching, multivariable analysis continued to indicate that case management was independently associated with follow-up rate (adjusted odds ratio: 2.72; 95% confidence interval: 1.68 to 4.39; p value ＜ 0.001). Conclusion: Case management helps improve the follow-up rate of subjects with lung lesions on LDCT. Further investigations are needed to determine its cost-effectiveness and influences on the quality of life and clinical prognosis of patients.

本個案為37歲男性，患第一型糖尿病及糖尿病腎病變，一年內腎功能逐漸下降、並出現噁心及食慾減退等尿毒症狀，經家庭醫學科醫師轉介腎臟科門診，進行腎臟切片之適應症評估與透析準備。本個案報告從第一型糖尿病腎病變之自然史進而探討現今腎臟切片適應症及禁忌症的共識，以期第一線醫師對有需要經腎臟切片診斷、且能受益於此的族群有所覺察並適時轉介。A 37-year-old man with type 1 diabetes and diabetic nephropathy was followed at a family medicine clinic. His renal function had declined in the past year while uremic symptoms of nausea and anorexia also developed. As causes other than diabetes leading to deterioration of his renal function were suspected, he was referred to a renal specialist for discussion on receiving renal biopsy. After initial assessment with serology tests, sonography, as well as follow-up serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen, renal biopsy was deferred given the chronicity of his condition and the inevitability of dialysis at the point. Current consensus and ambiguity concerning indications and contraindications of renal biopsy were examined via the case. Family medicine doctors are front-line physicians who should be able to detect the slightest change in manifestation of patients’ renal function. The importance of timely referral in yielding greatest possible benefits from renal biopsy for patients in need should be emphasized.
專欄文章的寫作剖析與翻譯策略：太極陰陽圖與最佳化分類
Authors: 賴秉彥 賴秉彥
Published: December 2022

本文從媒體專欄文章的主要類別及其辯證的本質為發端，接續討論能強化理解的柔性寫作技巧，以及著重邏輯與因果關係的硬性技巧。我們可以透過陰陽太極圖與樹狀圖的角度來歸納硬性推理技巧，從而理解到二分法的不可能以及分類的歸納所可能面臨的限制。畢竟，太多層級的分類是沒效率的。針對這個問題，本文提出一個最佳化分類的概念，主張透過此一概念來檢視專欄文章的邏輯脈絡以及構思適當的翻譯策略。以專欄文章而言，兩階段的樹狀圖分類大致是適合的，雖因特殊情境而或有例外。在本質上，寫作的架構是不穩定的，但我們依舊可以依循結構主義的角度來看待文章的推理脈絡，因為在最佳化分類之前以及最佳化分類底下的架構仍屬穩定。最後，本文提供一則心理分析的比喻以協助譯者構思翻譯策略。

 

This paper starts with the various categories of editorials from news outlet and highlights their inherent dialectic nature. It goes on to discuss soft skills that enhance reading comprehension and hard-core analytics that stress on logic and causation. The hard-core writing analytics can be analyzed through the lens of ying-yang symbol, or a corresponding tree diagram, which implies the impossibility of dichotomy and the inherent limitation of categorization, as too many layers of sub-categorization could be ineffective. This paper upholds the concept of optimal categorization, which would normally call for two layers, that helps to see through the writing analytics and conceive proper translation strategies. Although the structure of writing analytics could be inherently unstable, translator could still rely on a structuralist approach as the overall structure would remain largely robust and stable, prior and up to the stage of optimal categorization. Finally, this paper provides a psychoanalysis metaphor that helps to conceive translation strategies.

 
以海洋為中心的社會參與式藝術實踐—探索黑潮地帶間的跨文化流動與對話
Authors: 董維琇 董維琇
Published: December 2022

自2019年開始的跨國計畫「海洋中心形式的社會參與式藝術：批判思考與重新想像黑潮地帶間的文化交流」，試圖透過跨領域藝術的共創，由藝術工作者、研究者以及跨國孩童們的參與合作，連結人們與海洋有關的故事。本文之研究目的在探討透過參與式藝術創作，來喚起關於人與人、人類與黑潮文化地帶、海洋物種之間「真實關係的建構」與「有形、無形的連結和社群共感」的跨文化交流，轉化為對海洋環境的關懷之歷程，本文對此計畫在台灣漁光島和日本沖繩的實踐提出觀察與反思。期許這個以海洋為中心的社會參與式藝術計畫，不僅是對當前歐美學者觀點的延伸思考，更提出亞洲獨特的脈絡與重要貢獻，其所凸顯的是在亞際文化激盪之間與真實關係的經歷下所獨具的藝術生產、傳遞溝通與世代傳承的能力。

 

Since 2019, the international project “Sea-centric Forms of Socially Engaged Art (SEA): Critical Re-Imagination of Intercultural Flow in the Kuroshio Current” has attempted to instill interdisciplinary art collaboration by artists, researchers, and children from different countries to bring together people’s stories about the ocean. The purpose of this paper is to explore how the project, by introducing participatory art creation, has facilitated the “building of real relationships,” whether tangible or intangible, as well as cross-cultural "community empathy" that has transformed into care for the marine environment. This paper observes and analyses the implementation process of this sea-centered socially engaged art project. It critically reflects on the extent to which the project not simply applies views put forward by European and American scholars, but also offers a uniquely important contribution within its own context. Through the experience of real relationship induced by socially-engaged art practice, the project highlights the inter-Asian cultural flow as well as creates the unique power for artistic productions, modes of communication and transmission to be passed on across generations.

 
數位在陶藝創作之工藝精神
Authors: 張恭領 張恭領
Published: December 2022

數位在陶藝的創作不是要直接以數位的方式製造出陶瓷，取代人為主體，如此便是分斷了人與物互動的動覺智能。相較於工業化，生產連結著特定知識，然而身體勞動卻與生產是分斷的，沒有立即的動覺智能。本研究以筆者的陶藝作品與數位工具使用之關係切入，目的在於檢視主體意識、動覺智能與特定知識三者間之關係，以此建立工藝精神之探討架構；探討結果發現，數位工具的使用，雖然脫離了物性與技術限制，但若能適度地運用直覺捏塑方式則有助於美感的經驗發展，當再次接觸陶土實作時，數位經驗的潛移特性，更將有助於造型的體悟與精進。最後，數位工具的使用理當回歸創作者主體意識的探討，結合特定知識與動覺智能，更能激發更多創作的發展。

 

Digital tools are not meant to replace the subjective in ceramic creations. By comparison with industrialization, production is linked to specific knowledge, whereas physical labor is ceased from the production process, and there is nothing about subjective consciousness and bodily-kinesthetic intelligence.
This study examines the relationship between subjective consciousness, kinesthetic intelligence, and specific knowledge based on the ceramic works and the use of digital tools, to establish a theoretical framework. The results of the discussion found that if the intuitive kneading method with digital tools can be used moderately, it is conducive to the aesthetic experience without the restriction of physical properties and skill limitations, and when the clay is applied again, the experience of digital kneading would be transferred, which is conducive to the realization of the clay modeling. The use of digital tools should return to the discussion of the creator’s subjective consciousness, combined with specific knowledge and kinesthetic intelligence, which can stimulate the development of creations.

 
國民小學師資培育「國音及說話」課程內容與實施現況分析
Authors: 張金蘭 張金蘭
Published: December 2022

對教師而言，口語是傳達教學內容的重要媒介。在臺灣的國小師資培育課程中，與教師口語表達緊密相關的重要課程為「國音及說話」，其亦為師資生「教學基本學科課程」與各科教材教法的先修課程，足見此課程之重要性。本文研究目的在瞭解「國音及說話」課程內容與實施，故以課程大綱與授課教師為研究對象，探討此課程的課程目標、課程內容、授課方法與評量方式。首先由教育部大學校院課程資源網查詢106到110年，共計五個學年度、294門「國音及說話」課程，刪去重覆教師與課程大綱不完整者，共計44門。研究採取內容分析法分析課綱，並根據文獻探討與課程大綱分析結果做為擬定訪談題綱的基礎，而後訪談8位授課教師，最後比對與分析所得資料並提出結論。研究結果有四，一是課程目標兼顧國音理論與說話實務；二是課程內容重國音理論、輕說話實務；三是授課方法多採取教師講授國音理論、師資生練習說話實務的方式進行，但因修課人數過多、授課時數不足之故，導致實務練習不足；四是在評量方式上，多以紙筆測驗來評量國音理論知識，以口語練習或測試來評量說話能力，但口試未有相關標準與方式。研究者將針對此研究結果提出相關建議，並希望此研究能提供國小師資培育大學開設「國音及說話」課程的參考。

 

For teachers, oral language is an important medium for conveying teaching content. In Taiwan’s elementary school teacher training courses, the compulsory course closely related to teachers’ oral expression is "Chinese Phonology and Speech". This study aimed to understand the content and implementation of the "Chinese Phonology and Speech" course in such training and took. the curriculum syllabus and teachers as the research objects to discusses the curriculum objectives, content, teaching methods and evaluation methods. First, the Ministry of Education’s "University and College Course Information website" investigated the "Chinese Phonology and Speech" courses for five academic years from 2017 to2021. In total, forty-four courses, with repeated teachers and incomplete syllabus, were deleted. This research adopted the content analysis method to analyze the syllabus. Based on the literature discussion and syllabus analysis results for setting up the interview questions, it then conducted interviews with eight teachers. There were four research results. First, the curriculum objectives took into account both the theory of the national accent and the practice of speaking. Second, the course content emphasizes the theory of the national accent and neglects the practice of speaking. Third, students practice speaking in a practical way, but because the number of students in a class i too large and the number of teaching hours was insufficient, they still feel that the practical practice i insufficient. Fourth, in terms of assessment methods, paper and pencil tests were often used to evaluate teachers and students’ national pronunciation theoretical knowledge, while the speaking abilities of teachers and students were assessed by oral practice or tests. There were no relevant standards and methods for the oral tests. This study puts forward relevant suggestions based on the results herein so as to provide a reference for the "Chinese Phonology and Speech" courses offered by elementary school teacher training universities.
