Abstract White-rot fungi (WRF) are belong to Basidiomycetes group that capable to degrade lignin, because they produce extracelullar ligninolytic enzymes such as lignin peroxsidase (Li-P), mangan peroxidase (Mn-P) and laccase. The ligninolytic activity can be used in bioprocess oxidation system such as biopulping, biobleaching and bioremediation.  The purposes of this research were to determine the optimum conditions of growth and ligni-nolytic activity of  Omphalina and to observe its potential to decolorize cosmetics wastewater.  Omphalina sp. was grown on media of PDA-Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RBBR) and PDA-Guaiacol (GU) at various pH and temperature conditions. The decolorization of cosmetic effluent was conducted by applying Omphalina sp. at various dose of inoculum.  Decolorization rate and change of COD were observed for eight days. The  results  showed that Ompha-lina sp. could grow and produce peroxidase enzyme both on RBBR and GU media at pH 4.5-8.5  and temperature 23-350C. Optimum dose of inoculum was as much as 5%  w/v at which the fungus was able to  decolorize cosmetic factory effluent up to 92.79% and to decrease COD value up to  48.57 % after eight days of incubation.Abstrak Jamur pelapuk putih (JPP) merupakan jamur kelompok Basidiomycetes yang mampu mendegradasi lignin karena memproduksi enzim-enzim ligninolitik ekstraseluler seperti lignin peroksidase (Li-P), mangan peroksidase (Mn-P) dan lakase.  Kemampuan ligninolitik JPP dapat dimanfaatkan dalam sistem oksidasi bioproses seperti biopulping, biobleaching dan bioremediasi.

Published: September 2018

U-Pace instruction, comprised of concept mastery and amplified assistance, has shown promise in increasing undergraduate success. To evaluate the efficacy of U-Pace instruction for students at-risk for college non-completion and students not at-risk and to determine whether concept mastery, amplified assistance, or both U-Pace components are responsible for the greater learning associated with U-Pace instruction, an experiment was conducted with four instructional conditions (U-Pace, Concept Mastery, Amplified Assistance, and Face-to-Face). At a public university, 914 undergraduates (576 at-risk) participated. U-Pace instruction produced greater learning than the comparisons. Additionally, U-Pace instruction produced greater academic success than Face-to-Face instruction. The percentage of final grades of A or B did not differ for Concept Mastery, Amplified Assistance, and U-Pace students. No interaction between instructional condition and risk status was found for final grades or learning. The efficacy of U-Pace instruction for both at-risk students and students not at-risk was supported.
Increasing Interpersonal Interactions in an Online Course: Does Increased Instructor E-mail Activity and a Voluntary In-Person Meeting Time Facilitate Student Learning?
Authors: Cung Bianca , Xu Di , Eichhorn Sarah
Published: September 2018

Distance learning is expanding rapidly in universities. While theoretical and qualitative literature stress the critical role of effective interpersonal interactions in motivating students and facilitating learning in online environments, quantitative evidence on the benefits of increased interpersonal interactions on student learning outcomes is limited. This study examines the effect of providing a voluntary meeting time and increasing instructor e-mail activity on student grades in a fully online Pre-Calculus course at a public university. Student selection into courses was minimal since students only had access to one condition at a time. We further use a propensity score matching strategy to address demographic variations in student characteristics across cohorts. Our results indicate that the increased interpersonal interaction opportunities increased final exam scores by 0.22 standard deviations and improved passing rates by 19 percentage points. The Rosenbaum’s sensitivity analysis indicates that it is unlikely that these results are due to omitted variable bias.

Gamify Online Courses with Tools Built into Your Learning Management System (LMS) to Enhance Self-Determined and Active Learning
Authors: Chen Cheng-Chia (Brian)
Published: September 2018

“Gamified” active learning has been shown to increase students’ academic performance, engagement, and make more social connections than standard course settings. However, the costs to use an educational game design with efficient delivery of the game/course plan can be problematic. Our first objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of gamification by using existing techniques (e.g., simple HTML-based games) and readily available collaborative tools (e.g., Wikis) from a typical learning management system (LMS) such as Blackboard. Moreover, our second objective was to examine students’ attitudes towards gamification (e.g., usefulness). Data were collected from 2015 to 2017 (n = 80) at a Midwestern university in the United State using a mixed methods approach. For the quantitative method, online surveys were conducted in an experimental group (class with implementation of gamification) and control group (class without any gamified activities) that were randomly selected from graduate level statistics courses. For the qualitative method, the researcher conducted semi-structured interviews with subjects who addressed their interests to be interviewed during the online survey. A Welch’s independent t-test revealed a significant difference (p < 0.001) in the mean exam scores of experiment and control groups. A difference favored the classes with gamification. More than 70 % of students agreed that gamified activities were either extremely or highly useful in helping them review and/or understand fundamental concepts. In conclusion, using built-in LMS tools to design gamified learning activities may enhance students’ learning outcome/effectiveness, provide more diversified learning methods and motivation, and offer easy modifications for different learning needs.
Student Perceptions of the Most Effective and Engaging Online Learning Activities in a Blended Graduate Seminar
Authors: Cundell Alicia , Sheepy Emily
Published: September 2018

The principal concern of this research was to learn more about effective designs of learning activities in blended courses. A questionnaire was administered in three sections of a not-for-credit intensive blended graduate seminar in university teaching.  The online activities included readings, videos, discussion forum activities and other activities using a range of web-based technologies. Students rated each of the activities on four target criteria: alignment with the course learning outcomes, deep learning, engagement, and value. Students also were asked to identify the most useful activities for each of the five modules and evaluate the course as a whole in terms of navigation, expectations, instructions, availability of materials, instructor presence, and technical quality of media. The results suggest that students’ perceptions of the activities followed very similar patterns across the four target criteria. The most highly-rated activities had four distinct design, which are discussed.
Effective Tagging Practices for Online Learning Environments: An Exploratory Study of Tag Approach and Accuracy
Authors: Dennen Vanessa P. , Bagdy Lauren M. , Cates Michelle L.
Published: September 2018

This exploratory study examines student tagging activity within a five-week social bookmarking unit. Students in six sections of a course were tasked with locating, tagging, and then highlighting and discussing course-related materials using Diigo, a social bookmarking tool. Three different tagging approaches were tested: dictionary only, freestyle only, and dictionary + freestyle. Analysis focused on accuracy and rates of student tagging, popularity of different tag types  Findings show that most students were able to tag with high rates of accuracy after a single brief lesson. The dictionary-only approach led to fewer tags overall as well as fewer single-use tags than freestyle tagging. It also resulted in students applying useful classes of tags, such as type of content, that did not emerge within the freestyle tag groups’ folksonomies. However, freestyle tagging was not without its merits, and provided opportunities for students to include tags that reflect relevant interests and more specific topics that were not addressed in the tag dictionary. The combined approach, if carefully taught and applied, appears to have the greatest potential for supporting student information literacy skills.

Published: September 2018

Este artigo apresenta alguns resultados decorrentes de dois estudos de caso, um sobre Carla e outro sobre Daniel, dois alunos que frequentavam o 6.º ano de escolaridade de uma escola de referência para a educação bilíngue. Com este estudo pretendíamos compreender quais os principais desafios linguísticos que enfrentam os alunos com Deficiência Auditiva na aula de Matemática. O estudo seguiu uma abordagem qualitativa de natureza interpretativa, seguindo o design de estudo de caso. Assim, foram observadas as aulas de Matemática ao longo do segundo período letivo, de janeiro a março, de uma turma composta por quatro alunos com Deficiência Auditiva. Para além da observação de aulas foi também realizada uma entrevista à professora de Matemática. Através da análise dos dados recolhidos foi possível identificar algumas das dificuldades que os alunos enfrentam em termos de linguagem nas aulas de Matemática, entre as quais: o reduzido leque de vocabulário conhecido pelos alunos, mesmo de termos do quotidiano, o que dificulta a compreensão dos enunciados das tarefas; a não linearidade da tradução entre a Língua Gestual Portuguesa e a Língua Portuguesa que causa momentos de incompreensão por parte da professora e dos alunos; a existência de palavras com a mesma grafia e com significados distintos que provocam algum conflito no aluno; a inexistência de gestos em Língua Gestual Portuguesa para diversos termos matemáticos, levando à criação por comum acordo de gestos ou ao soletrar de palavras, com os riscos que cada uma destas opções acarreta; e a forma como são lidos os números em Língua Gestual Portuguesa, algarismo a algarismo, que causa dificuldades na compreensão do valor posicional de cada algarismo.
Direitos Humanos e Educação: o professor de matemática como agente sociocultural e político
Authors: Vieira Lygianne Batista , Moreira Geraldo Eustáquio
Published: September 2018

Este texto propõe a incorporação de temas relativos aos Direitos Humanos nas aulas de matemática. A pesquisa busca promover reflexões de situações sociais relacionadas a esses direitos e, ao mesmo tempo, associá-las a uma atividade matemática. Além disso, procura desenvolver processos formativos para professores de escolas públicas e licenciandos em matemática. Com enfoque nas perspectivas histórico-crítica e matemática crítica, caracterizando-se como uma pesquisa-ação. Como resultado parcial, a partir da implementação de atividades matemáticas com temáticas sociais, no curso de matemática de uma universidade de Goiânia, percebe-se a necessidade da ressignificação do papel do professor e de suas práticas que nem sempre estão voltadas para a formação global e crítica do estudante. Ademais, verifica-se a importância da consciência crítica sobre a atuação docente e das potencialidades que a matemática tem em poder contextualizar e transformar o ambiente escolar.

PERLINDUNGAN HUKUM TERHADAP KELOMPOK AGAMA MINORITAS DALAM HUKUM PIDANA INDONESIA
Authors: Sumika Putri Nella
Published: September 2018

Criminal law should provide protection to all citizens (individually or communities) without regard to their ethnicity, race or religion. In addition, it is also important that its implementation should be done non-discriminatively.  This research is done using a normative juridical approach. The most important finding is that a number of penal regulations (inter alia, prohibiting blasphemy, genocide or in the criminal code draft relating to extra-marital sex) in its implementation and enforcement results in discrimination or even worse persecution of minority groups. The author here argues that, in order to guarantee the principle of equal treatment before the law and protection of (religious) minority groups, those penal regulations should be harmonized and read within the context of other existing penal rules.

AGITASI DAN PROPAGANDA DI MEDIA SOSIAL (Studi Kasus Cyberwar Antar-Netizen terkait Dugaan Penistaan Agama oleh Basuki Tjahaja Purnama)
Authors: Malik Abdul
Published: September 2018

Media sosial facebook saat ini lebih dominan dimanfaatkan sebagai ajang untuk membangun dan menyebarkan pesan maupun wacana-wacana kebencian. Dugaan penistaan agama oleh Basuki Cahaya Purnama Alias AhokÂ  saat melakukan kampanye sebagai calon gubernur DKI di Kepulauan Seribu, adalah contoh kasus yang menimbulkan kegaduhan di ruang maya. Polemik atas kasus tersebut menunjukkan bahwa kebebasan berkomunikasi di dunia maya lebih cenderung destruktif daripada bersifat konstruktif yang disebabkan oleh komentar baik berupa ujaran maupun wacana para netizen yang tanpa disertai oleh kesadaran etis.Â  Belajar dari kasus ini, maka semangat demokratisasi melalui ruang cyber sebagaimana menjadi harapan banyak pihak pada masa-masa awal kemunculannya justru bertolak belakangan dengan fakta yang kerap muncul ranah ini. Sehingga alih-alih menjadi saluran bagi tersemainya semangat demokratisasi antar-anggota masyarakat (netizen), yang terjadi adalah bahwa ketiadaan gatekeeper telah menjadikan media sosial seperti facebook sebagai saluran yang bebas nilai dan tempat tumbuhsuburnya berbagai ujaran dan wacana kebencian yang berimplikasi pada redupnya semangat demokratisasi itu sendiri.

It discusses a small part of a major study that investigated Malaysian non-option ESL teacher�s flipped ESL instructional design of teaching and learning in their own classroom context. �Participants were involved in this case study. The miniscule analysis was done for a digital tool called Blendspace (a learning management system � LMS) in order to investigate teacher�s classroom activity plans. The digital tools introduced to the participants were meant to support their ESL flipped learning instructional design. Findings show that new input ameliorated the existing TK domain and made it developmental. This has resulted an improvised TPACK which I coined a term �Augmented TPACK� � an inclusive TPACK domains that consists of developmental TK and non-developmental PK and CK. Participants used Augmented TPACK to plan digital tools-based activity.
The role of L1 in L2 classes
Authors: Iswati Luluk , Hadimulyono Arum Octaviani
Published: September 2018

The use of L1 in L2 classes has long been a controversy. Krashen (1981) proposes that to succeed in L2 learning, L2 should be exposed extensively. Furthemore, he asserts that failure in L2 exposure is caused by available access to use L1. In contrast with Krashen�s theory, numerous researchers point out that the use of L1 in L2 classess turns out to be beneficial. According to Cook (2001) and Tang (2002), L2 learning and comprehension increase when L1 is used. This research aimed to reveal the role of L1 (Bahasa Indonesia) by both teachers and learners in English classrooms at tertiary level. The data were obtained from questionnaires distributed to 158 students and 23 teachers at a private university in Yogyakarta. Interviews were also conducted to 5 teachers. The findings show that� 59% students and 70% teachers stated that L1 should be used in their class. 87% students stated that L1 should be used during explanation of difficult concepts of L2, and this is in line with 96% teachers who admitted that they use L1 when explaining difficult concepts. 40% students and 61% teachers were quite certain that using L1 in an English class helps learners � learning process. L1 use is also contributive in lowering learners� affective filter as it will make them more secure, comfortable, and eventually confident to use the target language. The overall findings suggest that L1 should be used in L2 classess, since its absence may hinder learners� learning process.

The objective of this research was to investigate the authorial stances in English RA introductions written by Indonesia authors in the field of sciences (i.e. Biology, Physic and Chemistry). This research employed a descriptive qualitative method. Thirty English research article introductions were included in the corpus in this study. The results show that two authorial stances: neutral and positive stances are found in the texts but no critical stance is used in the corpus of this research. Also, four types of authorial stance (i.e., hedges, booster, attitudinal markers, and self- mention) are used in the RA introductions and the devices in each type of authorial stance are nouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives and modals. Self-mentions found in this research are subjective pronoun, common noun and possessive adjectives. It can be concluded that Indonesian authors in the field of sciences already use similar types of authorial stances in their English RA introductions to those of international authors writing in English.

Masa dini merupakan sebuah masa atau fase yang paling tepat dan efisien dari beberapa fase perkembangan manusia untuk mulai mengenali dan mengembangkan seluruh kecerdasan maupun potensi yang dimiliki seseorang. Masa dini atau masa anak-anak awal disebutjuga dengan masa keemasan (Golden Age). Karena fase ini terjadi perubahan perkembangan yang cukup pesat pada berbagai aspek, baik itu fisik, kognitif, ataupun sosio-emosional. Mengingat pentingnya fase ini, maka peran dari orang dewasa sangatlah diperlukan baik dari orang tua maupun pendidik untuk menstimulus dan menyediakanlingkungan yang kondusif di sekitar anak. Pada hakekatnya setiap manusia itu dilahirkan membawa kecerdasan dan potensi. Untuk itu, proses pengembangan potensi yang dimiliki setiap anak sangatlah dibutuhkan. Sebagai orang dewasa sudah sepatutnya membantu anak untuk mengembangkan potensi kecerdasannya. Setiap anak pastimemiliki delapan jenis kecerdasan yang tersusun dan terkombinasi. Melalui pengetahuan tentang jenis kecerdasan inilah para orang dewasa akan lebih mudah untuk mengenali dan mengembangkan potensi-potensi anak.

An evolutionary perspective on paranoia
Authors: Raihani Nichola , Bell Vaughan
Published: September 2018

Although paranoia is the most commonly presenting symptom of psychosis, paranoid thoughts occur frequently in the general population and range widely in severity, from mild socio-evaluative concerns to frank delusions about the harmful intentions of others. Furthermore, paranoia commonly appears after a surprisingly diverse range of difficulties including trauma, brain injury, sleep deprivation, drug use, and psychiatric and neurological disorder. Evolutionary accounts of paranoia have been proposed before but have largely focused on paranoia as a misplaced threat response. Although social threat is clearly a key component, the experience of paranoia is markedly more complex than these accounts would lead us to believe: paranoia can involve multiple alterations in the perception of the social environment, the identification of specific but seemingly arbitrary groups as the source of persecution, and extended beliefs about conspiracy and complex coordination between the perceived persecutors. Here, we argue for an evolutionary approach to paranoia that more fully accounts for its complex social phenomenology and considers how it can be understood in light of our evolved social cognition. More specifically, in terms of the ability to form coalitions and coordinate between groups in situations of cooperation and competition.

This paper attempts to examine the impact of different educational marketing activities undertaken by Kathmandu valley located selected private management colleges. The study has gone through the behaviour of BBA and MBA enrolled students who were recruited by the private management colleges (affiliated to both domestic and foreign universities in Nepal). The conceptual model adopted for this study consists with 7Ps of marketing mix developed by Kotler and Fox (1995) which is specially designed for educational institutions. Self-administered questionnaires were distributed to 342 students studying in 9 different colleges of Kathmandu valley in the year 2015, and the collected data was analyzed through descriptive statistics approaches. The analysis of the available information revealed that the most important influencing factor for admission at the BBA and MBA levels was recommendations made by the friends. However, the words of mouth i.e. family and relatives’ recommendations, colleges’ website and newspapers’ advertisements were also found to be effective. At the BBA level, lecturers, provision for extra-curricular activities, library and IT facilities were also of the high value for the enrolment whereas at the MBA level, profile of lecturers, teaching practices, possibilities of future employment opportunities and better placement were high on the agenda. We believe that the outcome of this study will be helpful for all private colleges, advertising agencies, and government educational agencies of Nepal to understand the psychology of students and to develop effective marketing strategies. It will further support to regulate those activities that best meet the interest of students and service providers to increase attraction among all the potential students in the private colleges.

Dividend Policy, Share Price and Future Profitability: Case of Commercial Banks in Nepal
Authors: Dhakal Nabia , Shah Ajay
Published: September 2018

The study analyzes the impact of dividend policy on share price and future profitability of commercial banks in Nepal. Using panel secondary data of 13 commercial banks from year 2001 to 2014, correlation and regression analysis are applied for the study. The impact of dividend policy on share price is analysed first and the findings of initial analysis suggests that dividend yield and retention ratio have significant negative impact, whereas earning per share has significant positive impact on share price. The study, thus, supports the dividend relevance in Nepalese capital market, and it is further extended to analyze whether dividend changes carried any special information influencing future profitability of commercial banks in two subsequent year of dividend declaration. The conclusion from the analysis indicates that the current year dividend change has significant impact on current year earning changes. For subsequent years, the impact of dividend change is insignificant. Thus, dividend change does not carry information regarding changes in earning in subsequent years of dividend declaration and does not support signalling hypothesis in Nepalese capital market.
