Published: April 2024

This study aimed to determine the effect of developing the media board game "Galaksi Bimasakti Project," which is the development of the Snakes and Ladders game. The Galaksi Bimasakti Project has a colorful space design that makes it attractive to students. This game is equipped with pawns, dice, and 3 types of cards: question cards, answer confirmation cards, and punishment cards. The novelty of the Snakes and Ladders concept game is that question cards and answer confirmations have the same number, making it easier for students to find out whether the answers put forward by other players are right or wrong. Other participants will listen and remember the appropriate answers, besides that the attractive design and additional points make students more interested in answering correctly and contributing to their group. In this game the teacher is only a supervisor of the course of the game, in other words the teacher is only a facilitator. The game is carried out by peer tutors in groups so that in preparation for the game. The method used in data analysis is descriptive quantitative using a group design pretest-post-test. The results showed that there was an increase in the class average at the pretest and post-test. Obtained statistical test results of 0.000 stated that there was an influence of the media on learning outcomes after the implementation of the Galaksi Bimasaktit board game.

Published: April 2024

This research aimed to examine and evaluate the influence of leadership on the effectiveness of health and safety practices to reduce workplace risks in construction companies. Thomas Armstrong (Holdings) Limited, was used as a case study. A literature review has been carried out to determine the effectiveness of health and safety processes in UK construction companies. The research results show that some of these health and safety practices have failed in construction companies due to negligence from the management. Poor leadership and improper supervision have contributed a lot to failures in health and safety practices. As such, most construction companies cannot avoid injuries in their companies. The most common injuries in construction companies are those related to the mechanical operation, concretes, excavation, and blasting process. Due to confidentiality in data, the research tries to compare and evaluate health and safety practices in UK construction companies about Thomas Armstrong (Holdings) Limited. The final result shows that leadership plays a significant role in health and safety practices for reducing workplace risks. Division of labour (responsibility) plays an important role too. The managers are the head who must evaluate potential risks and find a solution to resolve them. The role of supervisors is to guide, supervise, and advise employees about possible risks. They also have the responsibility of risk assessment and recording. They have to provide all the training and necessary skills required for employees to perform their duties effectively.
The Green Chain: A Carbon Neutral Path from Climate Risk to Environmental, Social and Governance Performance

Global climate change is increasingly recognized as a critical factor influencing economic performance, thereby making the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance of businesses a vital indicator of sustainability. In the context of China's "dual-carbon" objective, this study examines the relationship between climate transition risk and the ESG performance of listed Chinese companies. Utilizing text analysis techniques, this research quantifies the Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) sections of annual reports from 2014 to 2019 to extract information on climate transition risks. A multiple regression analysis is then applied to assess the impact of these risks on companies' ESG performance. The findings indicate that climate transition risk has a measurable effect on the ESG performance of enterprises, suggesting its role as an incentive for achieving carbon neutrality. Specifically, the analysis shows that climate transition risk is associated with improvements in certain aspects of ESG performance, including environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and governance quality. Additionally, the study reveals that non-state-owned enterprises, those with diversified business strategies, decentralized management structures, and audits conducted by Big 4 firms, tend to exhibit better ESG performance in the face of climate transition risks. These results demonstrate the nuanced impact of climate transition risk on ESG performance, particularly within the framework of China's carbon reduction goals, and highlight the importance of firm characteristics in moderating this relationship. This evidence provides a foundation for stakeholders, including enterprises, policymakers, and investors, to consider climate transition risks in their efforts to enhance ESG performance.

Fossil-informed biogeographic analysis suggests Eurasian regionalization in crown Squamata during the early Jurassic
Authors: Wilenzik Ian V. , Barger Benjamin B. , Pyron R. Alexander 
Published: April 2024

Background
Squamata (lizards, snakes, and amphisbaenians) is a Triassic lineage with an extensive and complex biogeographic history, yet no large-scale study has reconstructed the ancestral range of early squamate lineages. The fossil record indicates a broadly Pangaean distribution by the end- Cretaceous, though many lineages (e.g., Paramacellodidae, Mosasauria, Polyglyphanodontia) subsequently went extinct. Thus, the origin and occupancy of extant radiations is unclear and may have been localized within Pangaea to specific plates, with potential regionalization to distinct Laurasian and Gondwanan landmasses during the Mesozoic in some groups.

Methods
We used recent tectonic models to code extant and fossil squamate distributions occurring on nine discrete plates for 9,755 species, with Jurassic and Cretaceous fossil constraints from three extinct lineages. We modeled ancestral ranges for crown Squamata from an extant-only molecular phylogeny using a suite of biogeographic models accommodating different evolutionary processes and fossil-based node constraints from known Jurassic and Cretaceous localities. We hypothesized that the best-fit models would not support a full Pangaean distribution (i.e., including all areas) for the origin of crown Squamata, but would instead show regionalization to specific areas within the fragmenting supercontinent, likely in the Northern Hemisphere where most early squamate fossils have been found.

Results
Incorporating fossil data reconstructs a localized origin within Pangaea, with early regionalization of extant lineages to Eurasia and Laurasia, while Gondwanan regionalization did not occur until the middle Cretaceous for Alethinophidia, Scolecophidia, and some crown Gekkotan lineages. While the Mesozoic history of extant squamate biogeography can be summarized as a Eurasian origin with dispersal out of Laurasia into Gondwana, their Cenozoic history is complex with multiple events (including secondary and tertiary recolonizations) in several directions. As noted by previous authors, squamates have likely utilized over-land range expansion, land-bridge colonization, and trans-oceanic dispersal. Tropical Gondwana and Eurasia hold more ancient lineages than the Holarctic (Rhineuridae being a major exception), and some asymmetries in colonization (e.g., to North America from Eurasia during the Cenozoic through Beringia) deserve additional study. Future studies that incorporate fossil branches, rather than as node constraints, into the reconstruction can be used to explore this history further.
Complex Multifactorial Genetic Diseases
Authors: Camp Nicola J , Bansal Aruna 
Published: September 2009

AbstractVariation in traits can be due to genetic factors or the environment – nature versus nurture – or, more likely, to a combination of both. It can be of interest, especially when a trait is detrimental, to localize the regions of the genome that contain the genes involved and, beyond that, to map them and specific risk variants. Understanding the possible roles that genes may play in trait variation and, furthermore, estimating or modelling the genetic component are important first steps to inform subsequent genetic studies. There are many different study designs and genetic analysis techniques, each with their respective strengths and weaknesses for the identification of risk variants. Knowledge of disease susceptibility genes may help in the quest for new treatments and cures.Key Concepts:Types of trait variationThe possible roles of genes in trait variationThe components of phenotypic variationStudy designs for the estimation of genetic effects and heritabilityThe concept of genetic heterogeneityTypes of genetic study designsVarious analysis techniques used in genetic studies
