Hubungan Beban Kerja, Perencanaan SDM, dan Kinerja Guru
Authors: Syarief Hidayatulloh Furqon
Published: January 2023

Kualitas pendidikan dengan parameter capaian pembelajaran sangat dipengaruhi oleh kompetensi guru. Kompetensi guru memiliki korelasi yang tinggi dengan kinerja guru. Hanya saja, kompetensi dan kualitas guru tidak berbanding lurus dengan capaian pembelajaran. Hal ini karena kinerja guru merupakan suatu tahapan hasil sehingga tidak hanya dilihat dari faktor kompetensi saja, melainkan dipadukan dengan beban kerja dan perencanaan SDM. Dengan demikian,  penelitian bertujuan untuk menelaah hubungan antara tingkat beban kerja guru, perencanaan SDM, dan kinerja guru. Kajian dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode studi literatur. Literatur utama yang dikaji adalah hasil penelitian dari Arifah, Saputra, dan Wahyudin yang dikorelasikan dengan pendekatan Undang-Undang No. 14 Tahun 2005, Peraturan Pemerintah Nomor 19 Tahun 2017, serta Peraturan Menteri Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan Nomor 15 Tahun 2018. Berdasarkan hasil kajian, diketahui bahwa ada hubungan yang erat antara beban kerja, perencanaan SDM, dan kinerja guru. Semakin proporsional beban kerja guru dan distribusi SDM mencukupi untuk kebutuhan personel guru, kinerja guru akan optimal sehingga menghasilkan capaian pembelajaran yang optimal. Jika beban kerja melebihi ambang batas 40 jam per minggu dan perencanaan SDM guru kurang dari segi kuantitas, kinerja guru akan melemah sehingga capaian pembelajaran tidak optimal.

How Can We Interpret the 21st-Century (No Longer) Dramatic Texts and Theatre in Art and Theory?
Authors: Toporišič Tomaž
Published: January 2023

The essay analyses the corpora of the dramatic or non-dramatic texts of contemporary authors (Simona Semenič, Milena Marković, Tim Crouch, Oliver Frljić, Katarina Morano and Žiga Divjak, Anja Hilling, Wajdi Mouawad, Dino Pešut and She She Pop) as a border area belonging to both the field of literature and theatre. While detecting the specifics of the interpretation of drama and theatre, the author uses eclectic tools offered by literary and performing arts studies to analyse the corpora of contemporary drama or no longer drama and performing practices. Focusing on a series of contemporary playwrights and theatre directors, he seeks answers to the question of how we can interpret the changes in drama and theatre. How did the specific return to the theatre of words, as defined by the French theorist of contemporary drama Élisabeth Angel-Perez, take place, and to which extent are today’s theatre and drama still post-dramatic but nevertheless establish a new return to the dramatic and dramatised? How do these “experiments belonging to the so-called ‘post-dramatic theatre’ which is also a (post-)deconstructionist theatre, eventually, end up redramatising whatever it was they strove to un/de-dramatize” (Angel-Perez)? Thus, paradoxically, “‘no-longer-dramatic’ texts put forward a new dramaturgical form that subverts the dramatic representation of the world as a fictive whole and accommodates the ‘unsurveyable present’ (Lehmann) of the mediatised-globalised world”.

Abstract. Volcanic eruptions are the dominant cause of natural variability in climate forcing on timescales up to multidecadal. Large volcanic eruptions lead to global-scale climate effects and influence the carbon cycle on long timescales. However, estimating the frequency of eruptions is challenging. Here we assess the frequency at which eruptions with particular deposition fluxes are observed in the EPICA Dome C ice core over the last
200 kyr. Using S isotope analysis we confirm that most of the largest peaks recorded at Dome C are from stratospheric eruptions. The cumulative
frequency through 200 kyr is close to linear, suggesting an approximately
constant rate of eruptions. There is no evidence for an increase in the rate of events recorded in Antarctica at either of the last two deglaciations. Millennial variability is at the level expected from recording small numbers of eruptions, while multimillennial variability may be partly due to changes in transport efficiency through the Brewer–Dobson circulation. Our record of events with sulfate deposition rates > 20 and >50 mg m−2 contains 678 and 75 eruptions, respectively, over the last 200 kyr. Calibration with data on historic eruptions and analysis of a global Quaternary dataset of terrestrial eruptions indicates that sulfate peaks with deposition rates > 20 and >50 mg m−2 correspond to explosive eruptions of magnitude ≥ 6.5 and ≥7, respectively. The largest recorded eruption deposited just over 300 mg m−2.

Abstract. The soil water retention curve (SWRC) is a key soil property required for predicting basic hydrological processes. SWRC is often obtained in laboratory with non-harmonized methods. Moreover, procedures associated to each method are not standardized. This can induce a lack of reproducibility between laboratories using different methods and procedures or using the same methods with different procedures. The goal of this study was to estimate the inter/intralaboratory variability of the measurement of the wet part (from 10 to 300 hPa) of the SWRC. An interlaboratory comparison was conducted between 14 laboratories, using artificially constructed, porous and structured samples as references. The bulk densities of samples were different at the very beginning of the experiment. This resulted in a variability of retention properties between the samples, which was estimated by a linear mixed model with a "sample" random effect. Our estimate of inter/intralaboratory variability was therefore not affected by intrinsic differences between samples. The greatest portion of the differences in the measurement of SWRCs was due to interlaboratory variability. The intralaboratory variability was highly variable depending on the laboratory. Some laboratories successfully reproduced the same SWRC on the same sample, while others did not. The mean intralaboratory variability over all laboratories was smaller than the mean interlaboratory variability. A possible explanation for these results is that all laboratories used slightly different methods and procedures. We believe that this result may be of great importance regarding the quality of SWRC databases built by pooling SWRCs obtained in different laboratories. The quality of pedotransfer functions or maps that might be derived is probably hampered by this inter-/intralaboratory variability. The way forward is that measurement procedures of the SWRC need to be harmonized and standardized.
Using orthogonal vectors to improve the ensemble space of the EnKF and its effect on data assimilation and forecasting

Published: January 2023

Abstract. The space spanned by the background ensemble provides a basis for correcting forecast errors in the ensemble Kalman filter. However, the ensemble space may not fully capture the forecast errors due to the limited ensemble size and systematic model errors, which affect the assimilation performance. This study proposes a new algorithm to generate pseudo members to properly expand the ensemble space during the analysis step. The pseudomembers adopt vectors orthogonal to the original ensemble and are included in the ensemble using the centered spherical simplex ensemble method. The new algorithm is investigated with a six-member ensemble Kalman filter implemented in the Lorenz 40-variable model. Our results suggest that orthogonal vectors with the ensemble singular vector or ensemble mean vector can serve as effective pseudomembers for improving the analysis accuracy, especially when the background has large errors.

Objectives: To assess trend of consumption and withdrawal effects from caffeine containing products among medical undergraduate students of Karachi. Study design and setting: Cross-sectional study conducted via web-based questionnaire, from January 2020 to June 2021. Methodology: Undergraduate medical, MBBS students aged 18-24 years, studying in 6 different medical universities of Karachi were included in the study. An online survey was conducted. An online questionnaire was designed which consisted of 28 self-made questions that focused on collecting basic sociodemographic information, coffee consumption habits, and any adverse event associated with caffeine intake. The questionnaire was posted online and undergraduate medical students were invited to participate in the study. Results: One hundred and fifty seven students participated in the study. Out of 157 students 94% admitted to consuming some form of caffeine containing product (CCP), with 42.3% (n = 66) of the total believing that they were addicted to caffeine. A significant number also believed that CCPs helped students deal with their problems. Withdrawal symptoms include migraines, sleep disturbances, and loss of focus, leading to an inability to perform daily tasks. A positive correlation was also found between the daily intake of any CCP and incidence of withdrawal symptoms (p=0.01). Conclusion: Many students in medical universities of Karachi are moving towards caffeine dependence, due to daily consumption over a prolonged period of time. Promoting responsible consumption habits and spreading awareness over potential adverse effects of CCPs, especially amongst a younger audience could improve the health and lifestyles of students in the long-term

Published: January 2023

The Balance Error Scoring System (BESS), a subjective examiner-based assessment, is often employed to assess postural balance in individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI); however, inertial sensors may enhance the detection of balance deficits. This study aimed to compare the BESS results between the CAI and healthy groups using conventional BESS scores and inertial sensor data. The BESS test (six conditions: double-leg, single-leg, and tandem stances on firm and foam surfaces, respectively) was performed for the CAI (n = 16) and healthy control (n = 16) groups with inertial sensors mounted on the sacrum and anterior shank. The BESS score was calculated visually by the examiner by counting postural sway as an error based on the recorded video. The root mean square for resultant acceleration (RMSacc) in the anteroposterior, mediolateral, and vertical directions was calculated from each inertial sensor affixed to the sacral and shank surfaces during the BESS test. The mixed-effects analysis of variance and unpaired t-test were used to assess the effects of group and condition on the BESS scores and RMSacc. No significant between-group differences were found in the RMSacc of the sacral and shank surfaces, and the BESS scores (P > 0.05), except for the total BESS score in the foam condition (CAI: 14.4 ± 3.7, control: 11.7 ± 3.4; P = 0.039). Significant main effects of the conditions were found with respect to the BESS scores and RMSacc for the sacral and anterior shank (P < 0.05). The BESS test with inertial sensors can detect differences in the BESS conditions for athletes with CAI. However, our method could not detect any differences between the CAI and healthy groups.
Portret Jakuba Radlińskiego prepozyta generalnego miechowskiego - pisarza i bibliofila
Authors: Jedynak Zdzisław
Published: January 2023

Jakub Radliński (ok. 1684 - 1762) był jednym z najwybitniejszych prepozytów generalnych miechowskich działających w tym klasztorze. Godność tę pełnił w latach 1744-1762. Był on bardzo aktywny na polu naukowym. Zasłynął on jako autor wielu książek treści teologicznej. Był on bibliofilem i przyjaźnił się z Andrzejem Załuskim, biskupem krakowskim, który założył w Warszawie słynną, pierwszą polską bibliotekę publiczną. Z okazji 800-lecia sprowadzenia bożogrobców do Miechowa ukazał się w 1963 r. w “Naszej Przeszłości” obszerny artykuł Mieczysława Tobiasza o dziejach tego klasztoru, w którym pisał on także o tej postaci. Zamieszczone tam zostało nawet zdjęcie jego portretu, ale pomyłkowo określono go jako wizerunek innego słynnego kronikarza działającego w tym zakonie (prepozyta w jego krakowskiej filii przy kościele św. Jadwigi na Stradomiu) Samuela Nakielskiego. Od tego czasu we wszelkich wydawnictwach dotyczących kościoła miechowskiego podaje się jakoby miał to być portret tegoż Nakielskiego. Okazuje się jednak, że niewątpliwie jest to portret Jakuba Radlińskiego. O tym, że chodzi tu o Radlińskiego świadczą przede wszystkim dwa inne portrety zachowane w kościele w Miechowie. Na obydwu tych portretach dostrzegamy tę samą postać, którą widzimy na omawianym dużym obrazie - Jakuba Radlińskiego. Na obrazie tym widoczne są związane paczki z egzemplarzami przygotowanymi do oprawy największego jego dzieła - Speculum sancti Augustini, które zostało wydane w Krakowie w 1759 roku. Nie ulega więc wątpliwości, kogo przedstawia ten portret i kiedy mógł być namalowany. Jest to więc z pewnością Radliński, a data powstania obrazu nie może być wcześniejsza niż 1759 r. W prawym dolnym rogu wyobrażono pulpit z kałamarzem, a przy nim malarz Michał Gołębiowski umieścił swój podpis i datę, które można zobaczyć tylko przy silnym sztucznym oświetleniu. Podpis ten brzmi: “Michael Gołembiowski pinxit Anno Domini 1777”. Obraz został więc namalowany po śmierci Radlińskiego zmarłego w 1762 r. Wówczas prepozytem był Mateusz Bujdecki. W 1777 r. ukończono urządzenie ołtarzy wewnątrz kościoła po pożarze. Portret Radlińskiego ma duże rozmiary. Jest on tej samej wielkości co wiszący obok portret ostatniego prepozyta generalnego bożogrobców (do 1819 r.) Tomasza Nowińskiego. Ten jedyny podpisany obraz w galerii portretów prepozytów miechowskich świadczy o wysokich umiejętnościach Michała Gołębiowskiego, członka rodziny, z której wywodziło się kilku malarzy w Krakowie.
Gniezno czy Magdeburg? Ze studiów nad rywalizacją o prymat nad organizacją diecezjalna Kościoła katolickiego w Polsce w latach 30. XII wieku
Authors: Kosonowski Mateusz
Published: January 2023

Artykuł niniejszy stanowi formę bilansu dotychczasowej dyskusji naukowej na temat walki arcybiskupstwa gnieźnieńskiego i magdeburskiego o zwierzchność nad polską prowincją kościelną w latach 30. XII w. Główną myślą tekstu jest stwierdzenie, że rywalizację obydwu ośrodków kościelnych należy rozpatrywać w ścisłym powiązaniu z wydarzeniami politycznym toczącymi się w Europie na przełomie lat 20. i 30. XII w. Chodzi głównie o rywalizację Innocentego II i Anakleta II o tiarę papieską, starania arcybiskupa magdeburskiego św. Norberta z Xanten i arcybiskupa hambursko – bremeńskiego Adalberona o poszerzenie granic swoich metropolii, a także chęć potwierdzenia hegemonii cesarskiej na terenie Europy Środkowej za panowania króla niemieckiego Lotara III (od 1133 r. cesarza rzymskiego). W świetle źródeł papieskich (bulle Innocentego II z lat: 1131, 1133 i 1136), niemieckich (głównie Roczniki magdeburskie, kronika biskupa Ottona z Freising oraz liczne roczniki) oraz krótkiej wzmianki w Kronice polskiej Mistrza Wincentego można stwierdzić, że rywalizacja miała następujący przebieg. W 1130 r. doszło do podwójnej elekcji papieskiej w Rzymie, stąd obydwaj kandydaci zaczęli zabiegać w Europie o poparcie dla swoich racji. Innocenty II znalazł politycznego sojusznika w osobie króla niemieckiego Lotara z Supplinburga, który wraz z 16 biskupami Rzeszy udzielił mu na zjeździe w Würzburgu w 1130 r. pełnego poparcia. Dodatkowo wsparł Innocentego arcybiskup magdeburski Norbert, który zamierzał uzyskać papieskie potwierdzenie praw swojej metropolii najpierw do diecezji poznańskiej, a potem do całej polskiej prowincji kościelnej. Podstawą jego roszczeń był tzw. koncept magdeburski (wystawiony na początku XI w. rzekomo przez jakiegoś papieża Jana – najpewniej Jana XVIII - i potwierdzony przez papieży Benedykta VIII oraz Leona IX). Najpewniej Norbert po raz pierwszy przedstawił swoje projekty Innocentemu na zjeździe w Reims w październiku 1131 r., na którym był także obecny Lotar z Supplinburga. Jeszcze w 1131 r. wystawił Innocenty bullę podporządkowującą diecezję poznańską Magdeburgowi. Już dwa lata później papież zmienił decyzję i w drugiej bulli poddał pod zwierzchność Norberta wszystkie polskie biskupstwa, degradując tym samym Gniezno do rangi biskupstwa. Próbował przeciwdziałać temu Bolesław Krzywousty, który na zjeździe w Merseburgu w sierpniu 1135 r. za cenę złożenia przysięgi wierności cesarzowi, a także złożenie mu hołdu z Pomorza i wyspy Rugii i deklarację zapłacenia trybutu w wysokości łącznie 6000 grzywien najpewniej uzyskał poparcie Lotara III w staraniach o przywrócenie niezależności polskiej prowincji kościelnej. Było to możliwe, gdyż w 1134 r. umarł Norbert, a Innocenty II uzyskał wyraźną przewagę nad swym konkurentem do tiary. Owocem zmiany stanowiska cesarskiego była tzw. bulla gnieźnieńska wystawiona w 1136 r. [...].
Geneza kazań Jana Frankensteina scio quid faciam
Authors: Zapała Adam
Published: January 2023

W bibliotece Uniwersytetu Wrocławskiego przechowywany jest rękopis BUWr I Q 377, zawierający kolekcję przykładowych kazań Jana Frankensteina, wybitnego piętnastowiecznego intelektualisty, kaznodziei, inkwizytora Wrocławskiego, zaangażowanego w późnośredniowieczny ruch odnowy Kościoła. Choć rękopis ten był wielokrotnie wzmiankowany w historiografii, to jednak duża część kazań w nim zawartych nie doczekała się do tej pory omówienia. Niniejszy artykuł poświęcony jest genezie dwóch spośród rzeczonych kazań. Kazania Scio quid faciam odnoszą się do tego samego tematu i w dużej mierze są tożsame w treści (choć jedno ma 15 stron, drugie zaś tylko 5). Są to kazania przeznaczone na czas zarazy i zawierają rady dotyczące życia i pełnienia posługi duszpasterskiej w zakażonym mieście. Zostały one przygotowane podczas zarazy 1439 roku we Wrocławiu, dla podniesienia poziomu moralnego tamtejszych ojców dominikanów i zapisane w przez Frankensteina jako dwie wersje modelowego tekstu na czas zarazy.

Published: January 2023

The current case study discusses the implementation of a three-dimensional grammar system in the teaching of Modal Auxiliary Verbs at English Language Centers in Quetta, Baluchistan, Pakistan. The qualitative analysis approach is used, and the thesis relies on semi-structured interviews and impressions. The three-dimensional Grammar Framework Theory put forward by Murcia and Freeman (1999), is the theoretical base of this study. The data has been collected from 15 English Language Classrooms Modal Auxiliary Verbs and 15 English Language Teachers, who were selected by means of maximum sampling variation. Semi-structured observations and interview have been utilized for the in-depth analysis of the collected data. Moreover, the profoundly promising results in this small-scale exploratory case study include proof that only 6 English-language teachers integrated a three dimensional grammar structure into the teaching of Modal Auxiliary Verbs and among the remaining respondents, 6 instructors concentrated on ‘usage’, 2 teachers emphasized on ‘meaning’ and only one respondent insisted that ‘form’ is vital but she was later found to be stressing on ‘meaning’ during classroom observation.

Published: January 2023

In this study, we report a novel composite based on a porous 3D cryogel and Ti3C2Tx Mxene nanosheets, as well as Ag nanoparticles (MXene/Ag/Cryogel), which was obtained by self-assembly and applied to the removal of methylene blue (MB) with synergism of adsorption and photocatalytic degradation. The synergistic effect for the resulting composites with respect to MC removal is associated with the excellent adsorption capacity of the cryogel and the photocatalytic activity of MXene/Ag. The studies performed have shown that MXenes improve not only the adsorption process due to the presence of numerous functional groups, but also the photocatalytic decomposition of SM due to their high electrical conductivity. In addition, the incorporation of Ag NP improves the ability to absorb light that excites the surface electrons of Ag NP through the effect of surface plasmon resonance. In general, the results obtained indicate that the synergistic effect of adsorption-photocatalysis is an effective way to remove organic pollutants.

Published: January 2023

The paper presents the results of researching 137Cs radionuclide concentration in the organisms of mouse-like rodents (organisms of jerboa (Allactaga major Kerr and Allactaga saltator Eversmann) and marmots (Citellus erythrogenus Brandt)) living in the field of nuclear-weapon testing at the Semipalatinsk test site and the parameters of 137Cs radionuclide transition to organisms of studied animals. It is revealed that relatively elevated magnitudes of 137Cs activity concentration in organisms of jerboa and marmots are observed on the assumption of their residence in local contamination sites. With venturing from contamination sites at the distance exceeding the radius of animal activity, high values of radionuclides’ activity concentration are not reported. Despite the fact that animals live in the environment which components display high activity concentration of radionuclides, the extremely high concentration of radionuclide in these animals’ organisms has not identified.

The midpoint measures (AM±SD) of CRmuscl of 137Cs radionuclide for the muscle tissue of Allactaga saltator Eversmann amounted (2.1±1.3)×10−3 (n-11), for muscle tissue of Allactaga major Kerr – (4.7±2.7)×10−3 (n-9), for the muscle tissue of Citellus Erythrogenus Brandt – (7.0±5.6)×10−3 (n-6).

Authors: Balayeva O. O.
Published: January 2023

Due to their high surface area, electronic properties, energy storage performance and catalytic activity, two-dimensional (2D) nanostructures have attracted significant interest and great attention in developing science. Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) belong to 2D nanostructures and have a high surface area, very important physicochemical properties, and biological activity. However, there has always been great interest in their doping to enhance and improve these unique properties, especially photocatalytic activity. In this work, ZnAl-based LDHs were synthesized and their doping with active- (Ca, Sr), transition- (Co, Cu, Cd, Ni, Pb, Fe), noble- (Ag) and rare earth- (La) metals were carried out by impregnation method. The removal of cationic and anionic dyes from aqueous solutions by adsorption and photodegradation on as-synthesized and doped ZnAl-LDH/PVA nanocomposite was also studied. The obtained results were correlated with the structure and physicochemical properties of the nanocomposites.

Published: January 2023

The spectral characteristics of seismic and infrasound noise were calculated by the waveforms of the NNC RK network stations using PQLX software. The calculation results were compared with the seismic noise model by Peterson and infrasound noise by Brown. The daily and seasonal noise variations were analyzed. Special attention was paid to regularities of the level change at microseismic maximum. The observed peculiarities are well explained by the location and dynamics of microseism and microbarom sources located in the North Atlantics.

Authors: Mokoko Akongo Louis Marain
Published: January 2023

Through this article, the main purpose has been to discover who is a feminist between Flora Nwapa and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. To carry out the research, life of the main character of each author’s novel has been scrutinized. Consequently when it comes to Flora Nwapa, as Amaka is the main character of her novel entitled One is Enough, Amaka’s life has been under scrutiny. As for Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, life of Olanna, who is the main character of her novel: Half of a Yellow Sun, has been investigated as well. The analysis has been conducted through lenses of two literary approaches namely Feminism and Womanism.At the end of the analysis it has been brought to light that Flora Nwapa is a feminist because Amaka has a feminist behaviour. As a matter of fact, Amaka has not tolerated any mistreatments from her husband as well as her mother-in-law. Apart from what has been mentioned above, she has beaten her husband back when he tried to beat her. She has divorced Obiora in order to go to Lagos in search for a better life. In Lagos, Amaka has also refused remarrying a priest called Mclaid, the father of her twin boys. Unlike Flora Nwapa, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie has been labelled a womanist because her character called Olanna has been tolerant to her mother-in-law as well as her husband regardless the abuse has undergone in her marriage. In fact, she has forgiven her husband although he has had a child by another woman brought to him from the village by his mother. Olanna has not reacted against the insults she has suffered from her mother-in-law.

Shrimp color is important when choosing the crustacean by the consumer. Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei can convert various types of carotenoids into astaxanthin and accumulate them in its body, giving the desired reddish color. In this study, the shrimps were kept in a biofloc aquaculture system away from the coastal zone, fed with commercial feed supplemented with annatto extract (Bixa sp.). The experiment was carried out with a 2 x 4 factorial design with shad levels (50% and 80%) and four feeding regimes (0, 7, 14, and 21 days) to evaluate the most efficient model to promote the increase in the surface color of the shrimp. Leaching in artificial brackish water and the influence of biofloc pigments on shrimp color. According to the results, bixin sprinkled on the feed surface undergoes leaching in brackish water the measure of the time it is immersed. Carotenoids present in the biofloc showed a correlation with chlorophyll content by the R test. Raceway with 80% water shad and feed containing 1,235 mg/Kg of bixin showed the most significant results in the shell color of shrimps (fresh and cooked) and lower ammonia levels.
