Published: September 2020

In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, our institution, like others in higher education, suspended face- to-face classes and offered remote learning as an alternative. We report five cases of undergraduate and graduate courses that transitioned from a face-to-face to a remote mode. Each case will provide a detailed description of how the course was moved to an online mode, how the course was managed, the instructors’ previous experience in online teaching, their self-reflection on the process of transitioning to remote learning and their recommendations for a more successful experience in a similar potential scenario in the future. Further, we report the students’ perspectives based on their responses to an online survey. The combined results of the cases reported in this study reflect the resilience on both sides. A sudden shutdown of the university along with disease- related fears caused anxiety both for the students and instructors regardless of previous experience in online education. However, having online material pre-pandemic, possessing the technical skills, and previous online teaching or learning experience as well as having the infrastructure in place, facilitated the smooth navigation of the courses. The mode of delivery of the course (synchronous, asynchronous or blended) did not have an effect on students’ satisfaction.

Published: September 2020

This paper aims to find the ideational functions in bahasa Kaili. Linguistics Systemic Function Halliday is used to find that Ideational Function. The data is collected through a library method, using reading and note taking techniques. Data were analyzed using a qualitative descriptive approach. The results of the analysis showed that in the mental process, there is only one participant in a clause, in the form of a human, who senses-thinks, feels-who always has consciousness. While in the material process, every participant is something, while in the mental process, concerning perceived, thoughtful, or accepted, the position of sense or sense is not only limited to certain semantic or grammatical categories but broader than the participants in the process material. In short, participants in mental processes are not just ‘something’ but, it can be facts. It is lead to one conclusion that in general, the structure of the Kaili and Indonesian language clauses is not quite different between each other.

Laboratory studies of fresh and aged biomass burning aerosol emitted from east African biomass fuels – Part 1: Optical properties
Authors: Smith Damon M. , Fiddler Marc N. , Pokhrel Rudra P. , Bililign Solomon 
Published: September 2020

Abstract. An accurate measurement of the optical properties of aerosol is critical for quantifying the effect of aerosol on climate. Uncertainties persist and results of measurements vary significantly. Biomass burning (BB) aerosol has been extensively studied through both field and laboratory environments for North American fuels to understand the changes in optical
and chemical properties as a function of aging. There is a need for a wider
sampling of fuels from different regions of the world for laboratory studies. This work represents the first such study of the optical and
chemical properties of wood fuel samples commonly used for domestic purposes in
east Africa. In general, combustion temperature or modified combustion
efficiency (MCE) plays a major role in the optical properties of the emitted aerosol. For fuels combusted with MCE of 0.974±0.015, which is referred to as flaming-dominated combustion, the single-scattering albedo (SSA) values were in the range of 0.287 to 0.439, while for fuels combusted with MCE of 0.878±0.008, which is referred to as smoldering-dominated combustion, the SSA values were in the range of 0.66 to 0.769. There is a clear but very small dependence of SSA on fuel type. A significant increase in the scattering and extinction cross section (with no significant change in
absorption cross section) was observed, indicating the occurrence of chemistry, even during dark aging for smoldering-dominated combustion. This
fact cannot be explained by heterogeneous oxidation in the particle phase,
and we hypothesize that secondary organic aerosol formation is potentially
happening during dark aging. After 12 h of photochemical aging, BB aerosol
becomes highly scattering with SSA values above 0.9, which can be attributed
to oxidation in the chamber. Aging studies of aerosol from flaming-dominated
combustion were inconclusive due to the very low aerosol number concentration. We also attempted to simulate polluted urban environments by
injecting volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and BB aerosol into the chamber, but no distinct difference was observed when compared to photochemical aging in the absence of VOCs.
Politics, Identity, and Domination
Authors: Warnke Georgia 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
Politics against Domination by Ian Shapiro considers important features of a politics of nondomination and argues against the idea that these features are best secured, not by majority rule, but by constitutions, courts, checks and balances, and other republican institutions. This paper examines these arguments but also asks whether majority rule can prevent political domination in the United States where political affiliations are forms of social identity and where social identities play the role they currently play in American public life.
The Destruction of Israel and Other Fantasies in Jewish American Literature
Authors: Gil Noam 
Published: September 2020

ABSTRACTThis article is an attempt to reformulate the critique of Israel in recent years in literary terms; namely, how postcolonial perspectives regarding Zionism are utilized toward the emergence of a new sensibility in twenty-first-century Jewish American Literature. More specifically, the article focuses on the growing preoccupation of twenty-first-century Jewish American novelists with Israel and its destruction. By discussing Michael Chabon’s The Yiddish Policemen’s Union (2007) and Jonathan Safran Foer’s Here I Am (2016), I argue that Israel and Israelis provide an opportunity for Jewish writers to regain a marginalized stature in the American literary field, to reclaim an “expertise in alienation” that Jewish authors have lost since the immediate years following World War II. The destruction of Israel (or the Jewish Hurban) is depicted in both novels as a utopian dystopia, a national Jewish entity blown away to small diasporic pieces. The growing preoccupation of writers with Israel is identified here not only as a testament of the gradual separation of many Jews in America from what they perceive to be an oppressive, colonizing state, but in supplementary aesthetic terms as well—the national center against which Jewish American writers imagine their own otherness.

De lat voor de wetgevingsjurist
Authors: Schipper-Spanninga J. , Visser G.P. 
Published: September 2020

De lat voor de wetgevingsjurist
De auteurs stellen de vraag of de lat voor wetgevingsjuristen nu hoger lijkt te liggen dan voorheen. De inhoudelijke eisen aan goede wetgeving zijn niet wezenlijk veranderd, hoewel zij een sterke verfijning te zien geven. Ook de roep om een betere verbinding tussen wetgeving, beleid en uitvoering is niet nieuw. Wel zien de auteurs dat maatschappelijke ontwikkelingen als de meer participerende rol van de overheid, de complexiteit van de maatschappelijke vraagstukken en de toenemende druk op het totstandkomingstempo van wetgeving de omgeving van de wetgevingsjurist en de omstandigheden waaronder hij zijn werk verricht aanzienlijk hebben veranderd. Op de vaardigheden als samenwerking, flexibiliteit, je kunnen verplaatsen in anderen en snel schakelen wordt in de loop der tijd een steeds sterker beroep gedaan.

Background: Social networking has become integral to the intellectual, emotional and social lives of the young. The often-unrestricted access to sexually explicit content on the social media and associated adverse sexual health among this group, constitute key outcomes in public health research.
Aim: To determine social media use and the effect on sexual practices among undergraduate students in a private university in Southern Nigeria.
Methodology: This descriptive cross-sectional survey among 300 undergraduate students of Madonna University Nigeria, Elele campus, was conducted between June and November, 2019. Respondents were selected using multistage sampling technique. Data were obtained using self-administered semi-structured questionnaires. Data analysis employed statistical package for social sciences version 22.0. Chi-square test was used to determine statistically significant associations between variables at p values < 0.05.
Results: Out of a sample size of 300, all were returned and analysed, giving a response rate of 100%, and a mean age of 21.85+ 2.63years. The awareness of social media was 97.9%, with commonest 237 (79%) from friends/peers. The reasons cited for its use include: 208 (72.7%) access to news, 182(63.6%) academics, while 173 (60.5%) accessed social media for sexually explicit content. The mean age at sexual debut was 17.44 + 2.63 years. There were associations between use of social media for sexually explicit content and [the sexually active (p=0.000); type of sexual acts practised (p=0.003) and number of sexual partnerships (p=0.000)] respectively.
Conclusion: This study found an association between use of social media for sexually explicit content and risky sexual practices. No association was found between ever had sexual act and gender. We recommend behaviour-change interventions that control social media use for sexually explicit content and not compromise access to sexual health education among them.

Published: September 2020

ObjectiveTo explore challenges associated with implementing a home‐based strengthening exercise program for individuals with knee osteoarthritis and comorbid obesity.MethodsThis is a qualitative study embedded within a randomized controlled trial comparing 2 home‐based strengthening programs (weight‐bearing functional exercise versus non–weight‐bearing quadriceps strengthening exercise) for individuals with knee osteoarthritis and comorbid obesity. Patients in both exercise programs attended 5 consultations with a physical therapist and undertook a home‐based exercise program for 12 weeks. After trial completion, semistructured individual telephone interviews were conducted with 22 patients and all 7 physical therapists who delivered trial interventions. Interviews were recorded, transcribed verbatim, and thematically analyzed using an inductive approach.ResultsThree themes arose: 1) psychological challenges (false assumptions about exercise; fear of pain; disliking exercise; mental effort of the weight‐bearing functional program; underestimating capability); 2) physical challenges (complexity of the weight‐bearing functional program; cuff weights and straight leg raise being problematic in non–weight‐bearing quadriceps program; other health conditions); and 3) overcoming challenges (incentives to exercise; accountability; education and reassurance; tailoring the exercise program).ConclusionPatients and physical therapists experienced numerous psychological and physical challenges to exercise, including a fear of pain, having false assumptions about exercise, difficulties with exercise performance, application of cuff weights, and adverse impacts of other health conditions.

AbstractPower conversion efficiencies of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have rapidly increased from 3.8% to a certified 25.2% within only a decade. Eliminating possible recombination losses at the interfaces is essential to further improve both efficiency and stability of this class of emerging photovoltaic technology. Herein, a simple approach for improving the electron extraction of the PC60BM electron transport layer (ETL) is presented by sequentially depositing Al:ZnO (AZO) and triphenyl‐phosphine oxide (TPPO) on top of it, in a p–i–n device configuration. The efficiency of the resulting CH3NH3PbI3‐based solar cell is shown to improve from 14.6%, measured for the control PC60BM‐only cell, to 17.9% for double‐ETL (PC60BM/AZO) and 19.2% for triple‐ETL (PC60BM/AZO/TPPO)‐based devices, respectively. Optimized triple‐ETL‐based cells exhibit high fill factor of 82%. The combination of electrical and quantum mechanical calculations shows that efficiency improvement is attributed to reduced trap‐assisted recombination at the interface and better energy level alignment due to chemical interactions between PC60BM, AZO, and TPPO. Moreover, it is shown that the use of multilayer ETL results in better device stability (T80 ≈ 800 h) under constant illumination. This work opens new possibilities for inexpensive highly efficient and stable multilayered contacts for PSCs by combining organic small molecules and metal oxides.

AbstractMetal‐halide‐perovskites revolutionized the field of thin‐film semiconductor technology, due to their favorable optoelectronic properties and facile solution processing. Further improvements of perovskite thin‐film devices require structural coherence on the atomic scale. Such perfection is achieved by epitaxial growth, a method that is based on the use of high‐end deposition chambers. Here epitaxial growth is enabled via a ≈1000 times cheaper device, a single nozzle inkjet printer. By printing, single‐crystal micro‐ and nanostructure arrays and crystalline coherent thin films are obtained on selected substrates. The hetero‐epitaxial structures of methylammonium PbBr3 grown on lattice matching substrates exhibit similar luminescence as bulk single crystals, but the crystals phase transitions are shifted to lower temperatures, indicating a structural stabilization due to interfacial lattice anchoring by the substrates. Thus, the inkjet‐printing of metal‐halide perovskites provides improved material characteristics in a highly economical way, as a future cheap competitor to the high‐end semiconductor growth technologies.
