Published: December 2024

Climate change is a global challenge that requires serious attention from various parties, including the government. The existence of surface temperature and various other parameters is certainly closely related to climate change. In this context, this study was conducted to identify the best model in predicting urban land surface temperature in the Jakarta area, as one of the steps to understand and deal with the impacts of climate change. The research data used comes from MERRA-2, NASA, which provides datasets for various climate analyses. A comparison of ARIMA, SVR, LSTM, and ANN methods was conducted to evaluate the performance of each model in forecasting land surface temperature. The results show that the Long-Short Term Memory (LSTM) model provides the best performance with MAPE and values of 0.8381 and 0.8628. This model has an advantage over other models because it can remember various information that has been stored for a long period of time and can delete irrelevant information. This shows that LSTM is effective in capturing the pattern and variability of the Earth's surface temperature in the Jakarta area. Based on these findings, the government is expected to take concrete steps to address the impacts of climate change, especially issues related to increasing urban land temperature in Jakarta, such as reducing the use of private vehicles and switching to public transportation, expanding green open space, and relocating residents to reduce density.

This study examines the translation techniques employed in rendering Javanese proverbs into Indonesian and English and their impact on the quality of the translations. This study used a qualitative design. Four professionals participated in a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) to determine, analyze, and validate the data. They identified the translation techniques and decided their impact on the translation quality. Data were taken from “Butir-Butir Budaya Jawa” book which contains Javanese proverbs and their translations in Indonesian and English. We identified 21 of Javanese proverbs. The findings indicate that eleven translation techniques were applied in rendering Javanese proverbs into Indonesian and English. They were established equivalent: 62 (59.04%), explicitation: 14 (13.33%), paraphrase: 13 (12.38%), addition: 5 (4.76%), modulation and pure borrowing: 3 (2.85%), generalization, literal, transposition, and compensation: 1 (0.95%). Established equivalent, explicitation, paraphrase, addition, modulation, transposition, generalization, and compensation have contributed to the accuracy, acceptability, and readability of Javanese proverbs translation. On the other hand, literal translation has resulted in lower accuracy, reduced acceptability, and moderate readability. Pure borrowing has made the translation less acceptable, while reduction has resulted in lower accuracy. The implication of this study for translators is that literal, reduction, and pure borrowing techniques are not recommended due to they have not contributed to the accuracy, acceptability, and readability of translation but they contributed to less accurate, less acceptable and medium readability of translation.

Authors: Giri Sushmita , Dhungana Govinda Prasad 
Published: December 2024

Employee turnover is a critical issue in the hotel industry, posing significant financial and operational challenges, particularly due to the sector's higher turnover rates compared to other industries. This study aims to identify key factors influencing turnover intentions, such as working environment, career growth opportunities, compensation, and job satisfaction. A quantitative research design was employed to identify the factors influencing employee turnover. The study population consisted of staff from tourist-standard hotels registered with the Regional Hotel Association of Nepal (RHAN). Twelve hotels were selected by convenience sampling, and 180 questionnaires were distributed, with 100 completed responses, resulting in a 55.5% response rate. The findings revealed that job satisfaction had a significant negative impact on turnover intentions, while other factors like working environment, career growth, and compensation were not statistically significant predictors. The study concludes that improving job satisfaction is essential to reducing turnover. The implication of this study is that managers or owners should prioritize initiatives to enhance job satisfaction as a strategic approach to reducing employee turnover intentions.

The complete assessment of micronutrient and toxic elements (Cu, Mo, Sn, Cr, Ni, Zn and Pb) in rice grains and implications for food safety and nutrition is still not understood clearly. Pot experiments were designed to grow the two rice cultivars namely MH63 and LYMZ. For the accurate determination of the micronutrient elements and toxic element, here we used microwave assisted digestion for sample preparation and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) for the determination. Good linearity was maintained over the range studied with correlation coefficients (R2) of 0.999-1.0. This work focused on evaluating these elements in two rice cultivars MH63 and LYMZ. The micronutrient elements and toxic element in the bran and kernel of both the cultivars were detected below the permitted level set by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United States/ World Health Organization(FAO/ WHO). Large portion of the micronutrient elements and toxic elements remain in the bran, very small amounts in the ppb levels remain in the kernel. The translocation of zinc into bran is highest among other nutrient elements. The load of nutrient element copper in the bran of both cultivars remains similar, i.e., 0.006g/kg whereas the toxic element lead in the bran of both cultivar lies below 0.008g/kg. The nutrient element zinc in the kernel of Lymz remains 0.066g/kg where as in MH63 is 0.025g/kg. Nutritionally essential trace element chromium in the kernel of both cultivars lies below 0.004g/kg (1mg/day tolerable limit). The concentration of nutrient elements in two rice cultivars were found to be very close to the minimum levels recommended by Food and agriculture organization (FAO). Thus, the nutrient quality of the rice grain depends on the status of soil, micronutrient element and toxic element concentrations in the permitted range of FAO/ WHO guideline.

Emotional Experiences and its Influence on Identity Construction: English Language Teachers’ Narratives
Authors: Neupane Bharat Prasad 
Published: December 2024

Teacher emotion is a relatively less explored area in the context of English language education research in general and teacher professional identity in particular. This study reports the emotional experiences of four secondary-level English language teachers from public schools in Nepal, exploring their life stories through informal conversations and in-depth interviews. Thematic analysis of their life stories indicated that as a roller coaster ride, teachers underwent positive, happy, and exciting moments to negative emotional experiences like sadness, dissatisfaction, humiliation, and vulnerability influencing their becoming. Vulnerability emerged as significant motif in their stories, which, though generally considered a negative emotion, immensely contributed to teachers’ development. In addition, emotional attachment with students, colleagues, and school; compliment and appreciation by colleagues,parents, and students; and students’ success and satisfaction enhanced self-esteem and commitment to teaching, positively contributing to identity construction. In contrast, sad and depressing moments arising from students’ disruptive behaviour, exclusion of teachers in crucial decision-making, and misrepresentation and misrecognition of their contributions by seniors and administrators in their discourses posed a crisis on their identity, stimulating feelings like quitting the job. The study’s findings implied an urge to pay due consideration to the affective dimension of teachers by policymakers and administrators for their professional development and identity construction, thereby enhancing students’ learning outcomes.
ChatGPT’s Impact on Students’ Writing: Lessons Learned from Nepali Undergraduate Students
Authors: Sherma Ammar Bahadur 
Published: December 2024

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has significantly evolved and is widely applied across various sectors, including education. The advent of ChatGPT has generated interest among users and researchers. Some express concerns about student dependency, while others advocate its incorporation into education due to its growing indispensability. ChatGPT offers a platform for students to address difficult theoretical questions and generate ideas for application-based questions. A study was conducted to understand undergraduate students’ perceptions of Chat GPT’s usefulness in academic writing and explore its potential in Nepali education. Using a mixed-method approach, data was gathered through a structured questionnaire distributed online via Messenger and email. The respondents, 64 Nepali students pursuing undergraduate degrees in Nepal and abroad, answered six questions: 5 questions were structured, and 1 question was unstructured. The study revealed that most students found ChatGPT easy to use and beneficial for idea generation, rephrasing, and correcting grammatical errors. However, concerns about dependency and its impact on creativity were noted. While ChatGPT is a valuable tool for enhancing writing skills, a balanced approach is necessary to leverage AI’s capabilities while fostering independent thinking. Further research is recommended to explore long-term impacts and effective integration strategies in education.
Leadership Dynamics and Organizational Citizenship Behavior in Banking Sector: An Essence of Transformational and Transactional Leadership Styles
Authors: Chaudhary Manoj Kumar , Neupane Krishna , Dhungana Madan 
Published: December 2024

Focusing on transformational and transactional leadership, the study investigates how leadership styles affect organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) in Nepal's banking industry. Fostering OCB, essential in fiercely competitive industries like banking, requires strong leadership. Despite its importance, this relationship has not received much attention in the Nepalese context. Data was gathered quantitatively from 278 officers and assistants working for six commercial banks. Transformational and transactional leadership and the organizational (OCBO) and individual (OCBI) aspects of OCB were assessed using a structured questionnaire. The results show that, whereas transactional leadership has a smaller, non-significant effect, transformational leadership has a significant, positive correlation with both OCBI and OCBO. By encouraging motivation, teamwork, and dedication, transformational leaders encourage staff members to go above and beyond their assigned duties, which improves OCB. On the other hand, transactional leadership, which emphasizes performance and rewards, has little impact on OCB. These findings support earlier research and highlight the importance of transformational leadership in encouraging proactive employee conduct. Among the limitations that affect generalizability are the sample size and the reliance on self-reported data. Future studies should examine various industries, include more leadership philosophies, and examine mediating elements such as corporate culture. These observations can help firms implement leadership techniques to improve worker performance and engagement.
