“It's Good to Talk”: Exploring Effective Professional Conversations in Teacher Education
Authors: Glover Alison , Bleasdale Catharine , Clifton Grace , Thomas Angela 
Published: January 2025

Professional conversations are significant in teacher education, yet policy makers and practitioners differ in their understanding of what these involve. The purpose of this study was to identify and understand the critical elements of successful professional conversations; the elements that effectively contribute to critical reflection and evaluation of teaching practice. Insight is provided by 10 participants who took part in a discussion group, in-depth interviews and written reflections. All participants are involved in professional conversations for a teacher education programme in Wales, in their capacity as either a student teacher, practice tutor or mentor. Findings highlight that some of the significant elements needed for an effective professional conversation include adequate preparation time for the conversation itself, knowledge of programme requirements and professional teaching standards, along with knowledge about the student teacher's school context – these can all be described as “hard” inputs; whereas the “soft” inputs include effective listening and questioning skills, and being able to offer challenge to the student teacher. Similarly, outputs of professional conversations can also be recognised as 'hard': effective reflections contributing to progress against the professional teaching standards; and “soft”: collaborative working relationships that are honest and positive with two-way learning for the mentor and the student. It is concluded that the softer skills of questioning and understanding the student teacher's expectations must be developed effectively for professional conversations in teacher education to have a positive impact on all those involved.

Observations on the Decline and Death of Southern Magnolia
Authors: McCracken F. I. 
Published: January 2025

AbstractA decline and death of southern magnolia in urban areas of the South was observed from 1976 to 1985. Defoliation, dieback, discoloration of stem wood, and root necrosis occurred 1-2 years before death. The xylem temperature was higher and xylem moisture content lower in declining trees than in healthy trees. The nature of the causal agent(s) was not established. A variety of treatments was applied to affected trees in an attempt to arrest symptom development. Some diseased trees injected with Oxytetracycline HCL have survived while trees receiving other chemical or cultural treatments did not survive.
Public Preference for Tree Density in Municipal Parks
Authors: Schroeder Herbert W. , Green Thomas L. 
Published: January 2025

AbstractPark managers faced with declining tree populations must plan for replacing trees in order to preserve attractive landscapes for the future. For this purpose it is useful to know what tree densities are preferred by the public who uses the parks. In this research study we showed photographs of parks with varying tree densities to public groups, who rated them for scenic quality and for number of trees (too few, too many, or about right). By comparing this information with actual tree inventories in the parks, we estimated what tree density would create the most attractive park landscapes for each group.Annotation.Optimal tree densities for scenic park landscapes were estimated by having public groups rate photographs of the parks.
Gaps in our understanding of ice-nucleating particle sources exposed by global simulation of the UK Earth System Model

Abstract. Changes in the availability of a subset of aerosol known as ice-nucleating particles (INPs) can substantially alter cloud microphysical and radiative properties. Despite very large spatial and temporal variability in INP properties, many climate models do not currently represent the link between (i) the global distribution of aerosols and INPs and (ii) primary ice production in clouds. Here we use the UK Earth System Model to simulate the global distribution of dust, marine-sourced, and black carbon INPs suitable for immersion-mode freezing of liquid cloud droplets over an annual cycle. The model captures the overall spatial and temporal distribution of measured INP concentrations, which is strongly influenced by the world's major mineral dust source regions. A negative bias in simulated versus measured INP concentrations at higher freezing temperatures points to incorrectly defined INP properties or a missing source of INPs. We find that the ability of the model to reproduce measured INP concentrations is greatly improved by representing dust as a mixture of mineralogical and organic ice-nucleating components, as present in many soils. To improve the agreement further, we define an optimized hypothetical parameterization of dust INP activity (ns(T)) as a function of temperature with a logarithmic slope of −0.175 K−1, which is much shallower than existing parameterizations (e.g. −0.35 K−1 for the K-feldspar data of Harrison et al., 2019). The results point to a globally important role for an organic component associated with mineral dust.
Pilatus Mencuci Tangan sebagai Tanda tidak Bersalah dalam Mengadili Yesus Berdasarkan Injil dan Kisah Para Rasul
Authors: Bangun Josapat 
Published: January 2025

Pilate, the Roman governor known for "washing his hands" in the trial of Jesus, is often perceived by Christians as the official who failed to free Jesus, yielding to the demands of the crowd and Jewish religious leaders. Pilate thus emerged as a symbol of a leader who evaded responsibility. This study aims to examine Pilate's role and accountability in Jesus’ trial through a textual analysis of the four Gospels and the Acts of the Apostles. Employing a historical-theological approach, this literature analysis reveals that Pilate, despite facing intense political pressure, did not actively pursue the crucifixion of Jesus. While Roman authorities commonly persecuted Christians, Pilate’s involvement in Jesus' death cannot be solely blamed on him; early Christians neither defied Roman authority nor viewed Pilate as the direct executioner of Christ. Rather than displaying negligence, Pilate showed significant effort to release Jesus. AbstrakPilatus, gubernur Romawi yang dikenal karena "mencuci tangan" dalam kasus Yesus, sering dipandang oleh umat Kristen sebagai sosok yang gagal membebaskan Yesus dari hukuman salib, tunduk pada tuntutan massa dan pemimpin agama Yahudi. Pilatus menjadi simbol pemimpin yang menghindari tanggung jawab. Studi ini bertujuan menelaah peran dan tanggung jawab Pilatus dalam pengadilan Yesus melalui analisis teks dari keempat Injil dan Kisah Para Rasul. Metode yang digunakan adalah analisis literatur dengan pendekatan historis-teologis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Pilatus, meski berada di bawah tekanan politik yang kuat, tidak aktif berperan dalam penyaliban Yesus. Meskipun penganiayaan oleh Romawi terhadap orang Kristen sering terjadi, Pilatus tidak dapat sepenuhnya disalahkan dalam kasus ini; umat Kristen awal tidak menentang otoritas Romawi maupun menganggap Pilatus sebagai penyalib Kristus. Pilatus bukan pemimpin yang lalai, tetapi berupaya keras membebaskan Yesus.

Characterization of Electrically Conductive Adhesives to Enable Perovskite-Silicon Tandem Solar Cell Interconnection
Authors: Böck Leonhard , Rößler Torsten 
Published: January 2025

The mechanical stability of interconnections in solar modules is crucial for their long-term performance. Electrically conductive adhesives (ECAs) offer a promising solution for the interconnection of perovskite-silicon tandem (PVST) solar cells due to their low-temperature processibility. In this study, the influence of low curing temperatures on the mechanical and electrical properties of ECAs was investigated to assess their suitability for PVST technology. Four commercially available ECAs were characterized, focusing on curing temperatures of 100 °C, 140 °C, and 180 °C. Mechanical characterization through tensile tests and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) revealed varying Young’s modulus (E) (stiffness) and glass transition temperatures (TG) among the ECAs. Electrical characterization showed that lower curing temperatures generally led to lower volume resistivity, particularly for ECA C. However, joint resistance values exhibited high standard deviations. Void analysis indicated that void formation had a negligible effect on the mechanical properties of ECAs. Furthermore, the influence of curing degree on mechanical and electrical properties was investigated, highlighting the importance of complete curing for achieving desired properties. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into optimizing the interconnection process for PVST solar cells, essential for enhancing the long-term stability and performance of solar modules
Do Public Works Programs Have an Impact? Evidence from Rwanda
Authors: Habimana Dominique , Haughton Jonathan 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT
Public works (PW) programs have become increasingly popular in Africa and elsewhere. They are seen as contributing to the social safety net in rural areas, and as a way to help households build assets. The authors seek to measure the impact of Rwanda’s Vision 2020 Umurenge (VUP) PW program, using data from the 2016/2017 Integrated Household Survey. All four matching models showed no measurable effect of the program on poverty and consumption, although there were modest positive effects on livestock accumulation and on financial inclusion. These findings are in line with a growing literature that finds PW programs to have limited immediate effects—in part because the resources devoted to the programs are limited and variable. It also appears that households substitute time spent on PW for time spent on other activities. A simulation exercise suggests that in order to have a substantial effect on household incomes, PW programs would need to be more predictable, more widespread, and guarantee more work. Whether this is a good use of public funds, relative to unconditional cash transfers, is far from clear.
Does Labor Market Performance Matter? Expected Return to Education, Schooling, and Child Labor in Côte d’Ivoire
Authors: Ehouman Williams Venance Ahouakan 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT
This article investigates whether expected returns to education affect the incidence of child labor in Côte d’Ivoire. Nationally, approximately a quarter of children in the age group of 5 to 17 years are actively involved in economic activities. Child labor is a matter of concern in Côte d’Ivoire, as it interferes with schooling. The study also attempts to solve an omitted variable problem present in previous studies using spatial econometrics techniques. Results show that households’ decisions to provide their children with schooling or to involve them early in the labor market are sensitive to the expected returns to education in their place of residence as well as those of other regions of Côte d’Ivoire. The results indicate that improvements in the expected returns to education reduce the likelihood of the involvement of both boys and girls in child labor, while it only increases girls’ probability of attending school. An explanation of this could be found in the low expected returns to education. Indeed, many educated people in this country experience difficulties in finding decent jobs. Consequently, a sound educational system and labor market reforms likely to raise the return to education could help reduce child labor and improve girls’ schooling.
The “Green Children of Woolpit”: A Weird Allegory of Isolation, Otherness, and Belonging
Authors: Overall Sonia 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT
The English folk legend of the “Green Children of Woolpit” has enduring appeal. First appearing as a wonder tale in the medieval chronicles of William of Newburgh and Ralph of Coggeshall, the children’s story has attracted numerous retellings across a range of creative forms. The sudden appearance of the green-skinned brother and sister, dressed in strange clothes and speaking an unintelligible language, has been the subject of multiple theories, from the scientific to the speculative, with the children recast as fey folk, aliens, lost immigrants, and malnourished foundlings. Focusing on two recent short story re-visionings of the tale, this creative-critical essay examines the legend through a consideration of the original tale’s landscape in Suffolk and explores representations of otherness, gender, and the nonhuman found in these retellings.
William Stukeley and the Exploration of Paradise
Authors: Wilson Simon Richard 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT
This article examines the writings of eighteenth-century antiquarian William Stukeley. It argues that Stukeley conceived of the megalithic monuments of England as portals into a transfigured, paradisiacal landscape in which matter was spiritualized and spirit materialized. Throughout, the piece draws on Henry Corbin’s discussion of imagination as a mode of super-sensory perception and its revelation of a visionary geography, which in turn mirrors back the truth of imaginative perception in endless co-creation. However, Stukeley, it goes on to argue, believed that the spiritualized landscape was being destroyed by a new materialism, so that he had to rely less on the presence of a divine landscape and more on personalized imagination as a way of accessing Paradise. The article also briefly examines Stukeley’s influence on antiquarians, William Blake and the wider English public, particularly in the way they conceived of and experienced the relationship between imagination and divinized landscape.

Dandruff is a disease caused by the fungus candida albicans. Dandruff, characterized by excessive scalp scaling, is grayish-white scattered on the hair, sometimes accompanied by itching. Dandruff affects about 50% of the world's population, with Indonesia ranking fourth in the prevalence of dandruff cases. Indonesia has a tropical climate that causes moisture, making it easier for the growth of Candida albicans fungus. One compound that can be utilized as an antifungal is telang flower. In this study, In silico method with molecular docking has been conducted. This study aims to explore the potential of bay flower kombucha as an anti-dandruff agent. The resulting compounds were further analyzed using in silico methods to predict bioavailability, toxicity, and antiketombe activity. The results of this study referring to the Journal of Functional Food the results of phytochemical screening of telang flowers by HPLC method showed that telang flowers contain active compounds such as gallic acid, kaempferol, delphinidin, epicatechin, myricetin, and quercetin which have high bioactivity potential. Bioavailability prediction revealed the result that delphinidin is the most favorable compound. Toxicity tests showed that most compounds had no significant toxic effects. Activity tests showed that some compounds had stronger binding to Candida albicans receptors compared to the drug ketoconazole. Overall, this study demonstrates the potential of bay flowers as a source of effective and safe anti-dandruff compounds.

Published: January 2025

Hypertensive patients often get more than one type of drug therapy to reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. However, the use of too many drugs has the potential to increase the incidence of Drug Related Problems (DRPs). The incidence of DRPs resulted in an increase in health care costs and hospitalizations, length of hospital stay, decreased quality of life, and increased mortality rates. This study aims to discover the Drug Related Problems (DRPs) that occur in hypertension patients at Muhammadiyah Lamongan Hospital. Determination of DRPs based on the classification of Drug Related Problems (DRPs) according to PCNE V9.1 of 2020. This study is a descriptive observational research with retrospective data collection using purposive sampling. The instrument used was an observation sheet. The sample in this study was hypertension patients at Muhammadiyah Lamongan Hospital in August-October 2023 who met the inclusion criteria, namely prescriptions and medical record data of outpatients with a diagnosis of hypertension at Muhammadiyah Lamongan Hospital in August-October 2023, outpatients aged ?18 years and hypertensive patients with or without comorbidities with a total of 132 patients. The results showed that of the 19 categories of DRPs studied, 6 categories of DRPs were found to occur, namely adverse drug events (probably) occurred in as many as 132 events (45.67%), inappropriate drug combinations occurred as many as 124 events (42.91%), treatment was not given or incomplete even though there were indications for 18 events (6.23%), no indications for drugs 9 events (3.11%), The duration of treatment was too short for 5 events (1.73%), and the duration of treatment was too long for 1 event (0.35%). From the results of the study, it was concluded that the treatment obtained by hypertensive patients can cause various types of DRP events. This requires special attention so as not to increase the risk of medication errors.

Hypertension is an abnormal blood pressure that can be measured in at least three different situations. Generally, if blood pressure is more than 140/90 mmHg, then a person is considered to have high blood pressure. Patient characteristics greatly influence the knowledge of hypertensive patients. Knowledge about hypertension influences the patient's own blood pressure control. This study aims to determine the level of patient knowledge about hypertension in controlling blood pressure at one of the Community Health Centers in Lamongan district. This research uses a prospective research method with a nonprobability sampling technique using Accidental Sampling. Prospective data was obtained from the results of the validated Indonesian version of the HKLS questionnaire, distributed to patients starting January-February 2024 with a total of 50 patients. The research results were analyzed descriptively, and that the number of patients with a high level of knowledge was 28 patients (56%) and 22 with low knowledge. patients (44%). The number of patients whose blood pressure was controlled was 28 (56%) and the number of patients whose blood pressure was not controlled was 22 (44%). Based on the results of research by classifying HKLS questionnaire statements, it was found that the majority of patients had a poor level of knowledge regarding lifestyle and its complications. The conclusion of this study is that the profile of patient characteristics regarding hypertension knowledge using the HKLS questionnaire in blood pressure control.
