Abstrak Dosen adalah pendidik profesional dan ilmuwan dengan tugas utama mentrans-formasikan, mengembangkan, menyebarluaskan ilmu pen getahuan, teknologi, dan seni melalui pendidikan, penelitian, dan pengabdian kepada masyarakat. Kedudukan dosen sebagai tenaga profesional bertujuan untuk melaksanakan sistem pendidikan nasional dan mewujudkan tujuan pendidikan nasional,yaitu berkembangnya potensi peserta didik agar menjadi manusia yang beriman dan bertakwa kepada Tuhan Yang Maha Esa, berakhlak mulia, sehat, berilmu, cakap, kreatif, mandiri, serta menjadi warga negara yang demokratis dan bertanggung jawab. Berkaitan dengan kedudukan dosen sebagai tenaga profesional dalam melaksana-kan pendidikan, pengabdian kepada masyarakat serta meningkatkan dan mengem-bangkan kualifikasi akademik dan kompetensi secara berkelanjutan sejalan dengan perkembangan ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi, maka dosen perlu membiasakan mengadakan penelitian. Berbicara mengenai motivasi dosen dalam penelitian pada dasarnya merujuk pada seberapa besar ia menyukai penelitian, karena penel itian merupakan bagian yang penting bagi kehidupan dosen dalam dunia kampus, sehingga apa yang disampaikan adalah kebenaran berdasarkan data dan fakta nyata, bukan merupakan imajinasi atau ilusi pikiran dosen. Perkembangan ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi telah membawa perubahan di hampir semua aspek kehidupan manusia dimana berbagai permasalahan hanya dapat dipecahkan dengan upaya penguasaan dan peningkatan ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi . Selain manfaat bagi kehidupan manusia di satu sis i perubahan tersebut juga telah membawa manusia ke dalam era pe rsaingan global yang se-makin ketat. Agar mampu berperan dalam persaingan global, maka dosen perlu terus mengembangkan dan meningkatkan kualitas dirin ya. Oleh karena itu, pe-ningkatan kualitas sumber daya dosen merupakan kenyataan yang harus dilakukan secara terencana, terarah, intensif, efektif dan ef isien dalam proses pembangunan, kalau tidak ingin bangsa ini kalah bersaing dalam menjalani era globalisasi tersebut. Gejala minimnya minat dosen dalam penelitian merupakan preseden buruk bagi dunia kampus pada umumnya dan mahasiswa pada kususnya. Jika dosen tidak pernah melakukan sebuah penelitian maka dapat menghilangkan kompetensi fungsional yang dimilikinya. Salah satu kompetensi yang harus dimiliki oleh dosen adalah mampu melakukan penelitian (Tri Darma Perguruan Tinggi). Hal ini karena pekerjaan dosen adalah sebuah profesi yang menuntut peningkatan pengetahuan dan keterampilan terus menerus sejalan dengan perkembangan ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi serta pesatnya perubahan pendidikan dilapangan. Atas dasar inilah maka dosen perlu melakukan penelitian agar yang disampaikan kepada mahasiswa bukan berdasarkan pada asumsi semata, intuisi, apalagi daya hayal, tetapi harus kebenaran yang logis, sistematis, ilmiah dan didukung oleh fakta. Berdasarkan diuraikan di atas, dapat difokuskan masalahnya adalah faktor apa saja yang menjadi determinasi rendahnya motivasi dosen dalam penelitian? Kata Kunci:determinasi, minat dosen, penelitian

Abstrak Media gambar animasi yang berupa film atau video merupakan media yang digunakan untuk mengkomunikasikan pesan pada siswa pada pembelajaran IPS meliputi bentuk-bentuk atau unsur-unsur verbal (teks atau kata-kata), sound/suara, juga unsur-unsur grafik (gambar dan yang sejenis gambar)sepertidrawing/lukisan, chart ,gambar/foto warna dan sejenisnya, poster dan kartun, dimana sumber-sumber media tersebut bisa berasal dari textbook, bahan-bahan referensi, koran, jurnal, baik yang dibuat sendiri oleh guru, ahli media maupun siswa. Media gambar animasi termasuk media yang masih jarang dipakai dalam pembelajaran IPS. Hal ini dikarena-kan guru belum terbiasa menggunakan dan mengilustrasikan materi dengan gambar, padahal jika gambar animasi dibuat dan disajikan sesuai dengan per-syaratan yang baik, tentu akan menambah semangat dan motivasi siswa dalam mengikuti proses pembelajaran. Media gambar animasi, dapat memberi gagasan dan dorongan kepada guru dalam mengajar anak-anak Sekolah Dasar atau Madrasah Ibtidaiyah agar lebih kreatif dalam mengembangkan alat peraga agar para murid menjadi senang belajar.Kata Kunci: gambar animasi, media pembelajaran

A multilevel approach to big data analysis using analytic tools and actor network theory
Authors: Iyamu Tiko 
Published: August 2018

Background: Over the years, big data analytics has been statically carried out in a programmed way, which does not allow for translation of data sets from a subjective perspective. This approach affects an understanding of why and how data sets manifest themselves into various forms in the way that they do. This has a negative impact on the accuracy, redundancy and usefulness of data sets, which in turn affects the value of operations and the competitive effectiveness of an organisation. Also, the current single approach lacks a detailed examination of data sets, which big data deserve in order to improve purposefulness and usefulness.Objective: The purpose of this study was to propose a multilevel approach to big data analysis. This includes examining how a sociotechnical theory, the actor network theory (ANT), can be complementarily used with analytic tools for big data analysis.Method: In the study, the qualitative methods were employed from the interpretivist approach perspective.Results: From the findings, a framework that offers big data analytics at two levels, micro- (strategic) and macro- (operational) levels, was developed. Based on the framework, a model was developed, which can be used to guide the analysis of heterogeneous data sets that exist within networks.Conclusion: The multilevel approach ensures a fully detailed analysis, which is intended to increase accuracy, reduce redundancy and put the manipulation and manifestation of data sets into perspectives for improved organisations’ competitiveness.

Published: August 2018

The main aim of this study is to find out relationship among tax revenue, total expense, gross domestic production and budget deficit of Sri Lanka from 1990 to 2015. Budget deficit is a vital problem in Sri Lanka. This research mainly considers three independent variables such as tax revenue, total expense and gross domestic production and budget deficit is dependent variable of this research. Data of this study collected from annual report, ministry of finance and central bank reports of Sri Lanka. Descriptive and inferential statistics were performed with the help of SPSS to analyze research data, answer research questions, reach research objectives and test hypothesis in this study. Correlation analysis confirmed that there are positive significant relationship between direct tax revenue and gross domestic production (98.4%), direct tax revenue and budget deficit (98.6%), indirect tax revenue and gross domestic production (99.2%), indirect tax revenue and budget deficit (98.5%), capital expense and gross domestic production (99.3%), capital expense and budget deficit (98.5%), recurrent expense and gross domestic production (98.7%), recurrent expense and budget deficit (99.3%), gross domestic production and budget deficit (97.2%) of Sri Lanka from 1990 to 2015. Regression analysis confirmed that 98.9% of gross domestic production depends on capital expense, recurrent expense, direct tax revenue and indirect tax revenue of the Sri Lanka. Capital expense has significant impact on the gross domestic production of the country (P = 0.024). 99.4% of budget deficit depends on capital expense, recurrent expense, direct tax and indirect tax of Sri Lanka. Further it can be stated that indirect tax revenue and recurrent expense have significant impact on the budget deficit of Sri Lanka (P < 0.05). This study concludes that there is possibility to change budget deficit and gross domestic production through capital expense, recurrent expense, direct tax revenue and indirect tax revenue in Sri Lanka.

Published: August 2018

Seventeen first-year Secondary School students with low levels of reading comprehension of mystery and horror stories, received training during two weeks in 50-minutes daily sessions. The structural planning was sequentially organized, in four types of teaching - learning situations going from lower to higher level of complexity. The instruction was implemented in accordance with four types of achievement levels: linked to the object, linked to the situation, non-linked to the operation, and non-linked to present situation. The results throughout the intervention revealed that in the two first levels (object-linked and operation-linked), average scores above 90% of achievement were obtained. In the two operation – non-linked levels (particular and present situation non-linked), averages scores between 73 and 76% of achievement were reached. Likewise, a significant change (p = 0.005) was found in a previous and post-evaluation of a school curricular unit for the group intervention, with no significant differences for the control group.

Published: August 2018

AbstractEfficient and scalable Cu(II)‐mediated enol esterification methodology of carboxylic acids from alkenyl boroxines and boronic acids is presented. The reaction shows a wide scope in aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic acids in combination with several alkenyl boroxines. In the case of 2‐substituted alkenyl boroxines the double bond configuration was fully retained in the enol ester product. Also N‐hydroxyimides and imides could be transformed in the respective amidooxy vinyl enol ethers and vinyl enamides. Finally, with the exception of methionine, all other 19 canonical amino acids showed their compatibility to give the enol esters in a stereoselective fashion.magnified image

AbstractTargeted therapy is highly challenging and urgently needed for patients diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Here, a synergistic treatment platform with plasmonic–magnetic hybrid nanoparticle (lipids, doxorubicin (DOX), gold nanorods, iron oxide nanocluster (LDGI))–loaded mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for photoacoustic imaging, targeted photothermal therapy, and chemotherapy for TNBC is developed. LDGI can be efficiently taken up into the stem cells with good biocompatibility to maintain the cellular functions. In addition, CXCR4 on the MSCs is upregulated by iron oxide nanoparticles in the LDGI. Importantly, the drug release and photothermal therapy can be simultaneously achieved upon light irradiation. The released drug can enter the cell nucleus and promote cell apoptosis. Interestingly, light irradiation can control the secretion of cellular microvehicles carrying LDGI for targeted treatment. A remarkable in vitro anticancer effect is observed in MDA‐MB‐231 with near‐infrared laser irradiation. In vivo studies show that the MSCs‐LDGI has the enhanced migration and penetration abilities in the tumor area via both intratumoral and intravenous injection approaches compared with LDGI. Subsequently, MSCs‐LDGI shows the best antitumor efficacy via chemo‐photothermal therapy compared to other treatment groups in the TNBC model of nude mice. Thus, MSCs‐LDGI multifunctional system represents greatly synergistic potential for cancer treatment.

Published: August 2018

AbstractStrategic questioning is a technique that can enhance the unique learning environment of emergency medicine (EM) training. By incorporating this into the routine expert–learner encounters of daily practice, it can be used to engage learners, explore their knowledge base, probe for gaps, encourage development, and grow critical thinking skills. We propose that this become routinely used in EM training as a tool to strengthen residency education.

ABSTRACTIonic conductivity of polypyrrole (PPy) doped with dodecylbenzenesulfonate (DBS) was improved by loading of 10 wt % of polyethylene oxide (PEO). The linear actuation properties of PPy–PEO/DBS films were investigated and compared in polar (aqueous) and aprotic (propylene carbonate) solvents keeping the concentration of lithium bis(trifluoromethane)sulfonimide (LiTFSI) electrolyte the same. The results were compared to those of pristine PPy/DBS films. The actuation direction changed from pure cation‐driven in the aqueous electrolyte (LiTFSI(aq)) to anion‐driven in propylene carbonate electrolyte (LiTFSI(PC)). At the same time, the electro‐chemo‐mechanical deformation revealed that the strain of PPy–PEO/DBS increased from 5% in LiTFSI(aq) to 20% in LiTFSI(PC). The effect of solvent on the ionic conductivity was investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, showing a 27% increase in charge transfer kinetics and an increase in the electronic conductivity, resulting in significant increase in the strain rate, when propylene carbonate electrolyte was used. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of achieving minimal disease activity (MDA) on the progression of subclinical atherosclerosis and arterial stiffness in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA).MethodsA total of 101 consecutive patients with PsA were recruited for this prospective cohort study. All patients received protocolized treatment targeting MDA for a period of 2 years. High‐resolution carotid ultrasound and arterial stiffness markers were assessed annually. The primary outcome measure was the effect of achieving MDA at 12 months (MDA group) on the progression of subclinical atherosclerosis over a period of 24 months. Secondary objectives were to compare the changes in arterial stiffness markers over 24 months between the MDA and non‐MDA groups, as well as the changes in subclinical atherosclerosis and arterial stiffness markers in patients who achieved MDA at each visit from month 12 through month 24 (sustained MDA [sMDA]).ResultsNinety PsA patients (mean ± SD age 50 ± 11 years, 58% male [n = 52]) who completed 24 months of follow‐up were included in this analysis. Fifty‐seven patients (63%) had achieved MDA at 12 months. Subclinical atherosclerosis and arterial stiffness outcomes were similar between the MDA and non‐MDA groups. Forty‐one patients (46%) achieved sMDA. As shown by multivariate analysis, achieving sMDA had a protective effect on plaque progression (odds ratio 0.273 [95% confidence interval 0.088–0.846], P = 0.024), and less of an increase in total plaque area, mean intima‐media thickness, and augmentation index values after adjustment for covariates.ConclusionOur results support the recommendation that once MDA is achieved, it should ideally be maintained for a prolonged period in order to prevent progression of carotid atherosclerosis and arterial stiffness in patients with PsA.

AbstractOrgan culture experiments can be hampered by central degeneration or necrosis due to the inadequate permeation of oxygen and nutrients, which deteriorates the function and growth of cultured tissues. In the current study, we aimed to overcome this limitation of organ culture through spreading the tissue two dimensionally on an agarose gel stand and molding into a disc shape by placing a ceiling of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) chip, which is highly oxygen permeable. By this, every part of the tissue can receive a sufficient supply of oxygen through PDMS as well as nutrients through the agarose gel below. This method not only prevented central necrosis of tissues, but also supported the tissue growth over time. In addition, such growth, as volume enlargement, could be easily measured. Under these conditions, we examined the effect of several factors on the growth of neonatal mouse testis, and found that follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and insulin significantly promoted the growth. These results are in good agreement with previous in vivo reports. Notably, the growth achieved over 7 days in our in vitro system is almost comparable to, about 80% of, that observed in vivo. Thus, we successfully monitored the promotion of tissue growth beyond the limits of the conventional organ culture method. This extremely simple method could offer a unique platform to evaluate the growth as well as functional properties of organs, not only the testis but also others as well.
