Testing the Rhetoric: Application of Active Learning Strategies in Logic and Critical Thinking Classrooms– Lessons from University of Gondar, Ethiopia
Authors: Muluye Ketemaw Tiruneh 
Published: April 2020

The purpose of this research was to examine the implementation of Active Learning Strategies (ALSs) in logic and critical thinking classrooms by focusing on freshman students of Gondar University. For this purpose, a concurrent triangulation mixed approach and case study design were employed. The data were collected through questionnaires (n=361), interviews and document analysis. Accordingly, the utilization of ALSs in logic and critical thinking classrooms is found to be negligible. Though buzz group discussions and presentations were found to be preferable as compared to other ALSs, they are utilized in a rare manner. Factors related with the directives of the Ministry, motivation of the instructors and students were found to have an influence on the utilization of ALSs. This implies though the Ministry claims that it is committed for the utilization of ALSs, its directives are not found to be complimentary with its rhetoric for the utilization of ALSs.

Published: April 2020

Un mal control metabólico en pacientes con Diabetes Mellitus tipo 1 (DM1) se asocia a complicaciones a corto y largo plazo. Los adolescentes con Diabetes tipo 1 presentan peor control metabólico comparado con pacientes de otros grupos etarios. Escasos estudios han demostrado una asociación entre síntomas depresivos de las madres con el control metabólico de sus hijos adolescente.Objetivo: Evaluar la asociación entre síntomas depresivos maternos y control metabólico de adolescentes con DM1.Sujetos y Método: Estudio observacional transversal realizado en adolescentes, edades 10 a 18 años, con diagnóstico de DM1 de más de un año de evolución y sus madres. Se aplicó test de Beck II, cuestionario de depresión infantil, cuestionario SALUFAM y cuestionario de datos sociodemográficos. Se realizó hemoglobina glicosilada capilar, como marcador de control metabólico.Resultados: Se estudiaron 86 parejas (madre-hijo adolescente), adolescentes de edad media 14.04 años y 5.95 años de evolución de DM1. El 25.6% (n 22) de las madres presentó síntomas depresivos, asociándose a peor control metabólico en sus hijos (HbA1c: 7.66% y 8.91%, p < 0.001). El 17.9% de adolescentes presentó síntomas depresivos, no asociándose a síntomas depresivos maternos ni a peor control metabólico. Los síntomas depresivos maternos se asociaron a menor nivel educacional materno y paterno, mayor número de hijos en la familia, presencia de otros hermanos con enfermedades crónicas y a mayor vulnerabilidad en salud (SALUFAM).Conclusiones: La presencia de síntomas depresivos maternos se asocia a peor control metabólico en el adolescente con DM1, siendo fundamental un enfoque multidisciplinario familiar para obtener mejores resultados metabólicos en los adolescentes.

IDENTITAS ISLAM DAN PENDIDIKAN DI ERA OTONOMI KHUSUS ACEH
Authors: Fitriah Amaliah 
Published: April 2020

AbstractThis article investigates education in the era of Aceh Special Autonomy from the perspective of Acehnese identity politics. The nature of education in Aceh was fundamentally a legacy of conflict, and an arena of continuous identity contestation in the course of Aceh history. This study focuses on the way the implementation of special autonomy and Islamic sharia has altered and reshaped the construction of Acehnese identity. The changes in the curriculum and the structure of education observed in this research has represented the reassertion of Islamic identity in the education of Aceh. However, this reassertion has not necessarily led to an all-Islamised education system in Aceh. Rather, this development has resulted in a hybrid education system, one which promotes a greater association and convergence between Aceh’s distinct Islamic identity and the Indonesian education secular systems. This result emphasises that Acehnese identity has experienced transformation and negotiation, that is, although Islam has and continously remained the most significant element of Acehese identity, this identity is framed as part of Indonesian national identity. Therefore, identity is not fixed, but it is flexible and negotiable, as nationalism itself is a form of shared identity. AbstrakArtikel ini menginvestigasi pendidikan pada era Otonomi Khusus Aceh dalam perspektif politik identitas masyarakat Aceh. Hakikat pendidikan di Aceh merupakan warisan dari konflik dan senantiasa menjadi ajang kontestasi identitas dalam sejarah hubungan antara Aceh dan Jakarta. Tulisan ini akan melihat sejauh mana penerapan Otsus dan Syariat Islam telah membentuk atau mengubah konstruksi identitas Aceh. Perubahan-perubahan dalam kurikulum dan struktur pendidikan sebagaimana ditemukan dalam penelitian ini telah menegaskan kembali identitas Islam dalam pendidikan Aceh. Namun demikian hal ini tidak serta merta mendorong Islamisasi menyeluruh pada sistem pendidikan Aceh. Melainkan telah terbentuk sebuah sistem pendidikan ‘hibrid’ yang menghasilkan penyatuan dan konvergensi antara identitas Islam Aceh dengan sistem pendidikan sekuler Indonesia. Hasil penelitian ini meneguhkan argumen bahwa identitas Aceh telah mengalami transformasi dan negosiasi, meskipun Islam telah dan tetap menjadi elemen penting dalam identitas Aceh, namun identitas tersebut terus menerus ternegosiasikan ke dalam identitas nasional. Identitas bukan merupakan suatu yang tetap, melainkan fleksibel dan dapat dinegosiasikan, karena nasionalisme itu sendiri merupakan sebuah bentuk berbagi identitas.

The Potentials of Goodness and Badness in Humans on the Qur'an and Hadith
Authors: Nuraini Nuraini , Eduwar Eduwar 
Published: April 2020

Goodness and badness are two terms that are widely used to determine an action done by humans. All forms of human action refer to them views on goodness and badness. The value of goodness and badness will always be a source of reference in carrying out various actions in their life. Goodness and badness values are not only in philosophical studies, but also become the focus of discussion on various religious sources, including the Qur’an and Hadith. Specifically this research is directed to find out the potential in humans, in this case it is closely related to the potential goodness and badness in humans which are explained in the Qur’an and Hadith. In the QS. al-Shams: 8 stated that there is a balance of the potential of goodness and badness in humans, but in the hadith of Imam Bukhari No. 1385 stated that the potential of goodness is the most prominent in humans since being born in a state of nature. Based on these differences, the problem arises in this research that are how the views of the interpreters in interpreting verses and hadiths about the potential of goodness and badness in humans, and how to make the potential of goodness for more involved than bad. This study aims to determine the opinion of the intrepreters and find out the reasons of each intrepreter in talking about the potential of goodness and badness in humans. The results showed that the potential of goodness is the most prominent in humans, also obtained a sign that in essence the positive potential of humans is stronger than the negative potential, it's just that the attraction of badness is stronger than the attraction of goodness, therefore humans are required to maintain the purity of the soul (nafs). So that the potential of goodness is more prominent than the badness, humans should guide this potential with some instructions that have been conveyed by Allah in the Qur’an, and so have been conveyed by the Prophet in the hadith, namely by keeping the heart to remain in nature.
Developing Student’s German Language Competencies through Pragmatic Approach in the Classroom for Higher Education
Authors: Evianty Rina , Sari Risnovita , Reza Muhammad 
Published: April 2020

The general goal of teaching German as a foreign language is that learners can communicate appropriately in writing and orally in German. But in fact this goal can often not be achieved. Many learners in higher education master the German grammar and vocabulary, but they are unable to use German language that matches the social context, because they do not have much pragmatics competence. Pragmatic approach based on the function of language as a communication tool is a study of language by involving various aspects outside the language that are able to provide meaning. Pragmatic competence constitutes a significant factor in determining the success of communication. In fact, a German language learner in higher education is not only expected to use language and produce utterances which are understandable or grammatically correct, but is also expected to produce utterances which are socioculturally appropriate. However, for students in higher education who learn German as a Foreign Language (Deutsch als Fremdsprache/DaF), the pragmatic competence, which can actually be acquired naturally through social interaction, is quite difficult to acquire due to the limited. On this basis, pragmatics needs to be integrated into German language courses in higher education, which includes pragma linguistics and socio pragmatic. In this regard, this study describes not only the relationship between pragmatics and German as a foreign language, but also this study is an attempt to define its implications in teaching German as foreign language in higher education.

Published: April 2020

Crude oil spills pose a serious threat to the marine environment. This is due to crude oil, in large part, is composed of aromatic, aliphatic, and alicyclic hydrocarbons which are toxic, carcinogenic, and mutagenic to the marine life. However, the degradation of crude oil spills with bacteria in simulated seawater media is rarely reported. In this study, oil spill in the seawater, especially petroleum, had been successfully degraded by bacterium culture Bacillus subtilis in simulated seawater under 7 and 14 days incubation. Simulated seawater had synthesized based on ASTM D1141-98 for Standard Practice for the Preparation of Substitute Ocean Water. The petroleum recovery was analyzed using Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. In this research, the optimum recovery value of crude oil degradation by the bacterial culture obtained by octadecadienoic acid compound gave a percentage recovery of 8.20% and 8.87% after 7 and 14 days of incubation, respectively. This result indicated that the B. subtilis culture has the ability to degrade crude oil spill in simulated sea water.
3D printing, as a tool for planning orthopedic surgery
Authors: Cykowska-Błasiak Małgorzata , Ozga Paweł 
Published: April 2020

The purpose of the literature review is to determine the scope of 3D printing, also known as RP (Rapid Prototyping) applications in manufacturing medical model based on CJP (Collor Jet Printing) technology, with emphasis on the use in orthopedic surgery planning. The research of the presented method will be focused on the financial aspect. Researchers accept as axiomatic fact that the main buyer of the MRP (Medical Rapid Prototyping) structure will be the patient while the recipient will be the doctor or surgeon that provides the operation.
Using available open-source software solutions and suitable method for the treatment of CT (Computed Tomography) scans based on filtering RAW files managed we to get the best or relatively good results allowing to exclude a human work from one of the most difficult and time-consuming processes. Total cost of 3D printings including all production processes and post-productions are about 50% lower than commercial rates (on free market) for the model of: “oscoxae” including "osfemoris" (femur length not exceeding 20 cm). In our opinion it’s "relatively positive" effect.
Despite the success in the field of lowering the cost of 3D prints our work is still focused on reducing it (at least up to another 30%) by using automated-machine processing and tasks automation, as well as using another printing methods. Using 3D printings as a tools to help plan complex orthopedic surgeries make possible to extremely reduce the time of using instrumentation and the treatment time (comparing to similar surgeries carried out without using 3D printings).
