My math homework pal
Authors: Teo Beng Chong 
Published: January 2025

The aim of the project was to provide a computer software to help students to become better in solving math word problems. The approach is to use the software to guide the students to solve word problems in a systematic and structural way while providing enough scaffolds and helps when required. Also, when students cannot solve it correctly, it will pose a simpler yet similar problem for students to attempt. The process of posing simpler problems would allow the students to continue looking at and thinking of solving the problem instead of giving up.
Although there was a long delay in hiring the software developer, the project team managed to complete the design and development of the software. The software together with the accompanied specially designed word problems were piloted with 2 groups of students from 2 schools in Nov 2017. The feedbacks were generally positive on the use of the software. In Jan 2018, 2 groups of students from 2 schools participated in the implementations with 9 homework assignments given over Term 1 and Term 2. Pre and Post tests as well as pre and post perception questionnaires were administrated. Due to the small sample (n = 24) which followed through 1 whole implementation cycle and the short duration of using the software, data collected did not show any clear or significant changes in terms of students’ attitudes, aptitudes and performances toward solving math word problems after using the software.
In summary, the software was developed as planned but with only 1 cycle of implementation involving a small group of participants being carried out. The original plan to execute at least two cycles of implementations did not go as planned because of insufficient time due to delay in hiring the software developer and the consequent late completion of the software. Data collected did not show significant impact of use of the software in helping students to solve math word problems better. Some contributing factors which influenced this outcome may be the lack of supporting mechanisms to sustain students’ engagement, perception of students seeing these homework assignments as extra work and being lazy, and the strong prevailing belief by the students that they could not do word problems well by themselves.

The research informants consisted of 20 students of class V SD Kutowinangun 01 Salatiga, with details of 10 boys and 10 girls. Data collection techniques through observation and tests. The results of this research show an average score of 57.5% in the pre-cycle, far below the school's minimum standard of 75%. In the first cycle, student learning outcomes using the Word Wall approach showed improvement, but had not yet reached the minimum standard. The average student score increased from 61 in the 1st cycle 1 meeting test to 66.5 in the 2nd cycle 1st meeting learning outcomes. The number of students who got a score that reached the minimum standard was 60%, but the first cycle was considered not yet completed because the passing percentage had not yet reached 75%. In the second cycle, similar actions were carried out, and cycle 2 got better results. The average student score increased to 71 in the learning results of the 1st cycle 2 meeting test, but they still did not achieve success because only 60% of students passed. Finally, at the second meeting of the second cycle, the students' average score increased to 77%, meaning that the learning action using the word wall was successful and exceeded the minimum standard.

Published: January 2025

The aim of this research is to analyze the drying behavior, antioxidant properties, total phenolic content (TPC), and color alterations of pomegranate seeds subjected to infrared drying at temperatures ranging from 55 °C to 75 °C. Analysis of the data revealed a declining-rate drying phase without evidence of a constant-rate phase. The drying rate and duration were found to be directly proportional to the infrared temperature applied; higher temperatures led to faster drying and reduced drying times. The drying process of pomegranate seeds in thin layers was investigated using twelve mathematical models. Among these models, the one presented by Aghbashlo et al. was determined to provide the most precise representation of the drying kinetics. The effective moisture diffusivity values varied between 8.76 × 10−10 and 1.96 × 10−9 m2/s, depending on the temperature range under consideration. Additionally, the activation energy was computed to be 59.37 kJ/mol. The range of TPC values in dry samples fluctuated from 6.19 to 8.20 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g of dry matter. The 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2′-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) and copper-reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC) values varied between 5.57–6.13, 24.18–28.18, 10.33–17.59 TE/g dry matter, respectively. The range of ΔE values for the total color change fell between 3.96 and 9.19. Bioactive compound degradation in samples dried at high drying temperature (75 °C) is higher than in samples dried at 55 and 65 °C. When all the results were evaluated, it was determined that 55 °C was suitable for infrared drying of pomegranate seeds.

Published: January 2025

Pre-service teachers’ experiences of learning mathematics in schools is one of the factors that affect their beliefs on mathematics teaching. This study aims to: (1) explore the learning experiences of Indonesian mathematics pre-service teachers prior to their teacher’s training in the university, (2) a analyze the connection between pre-service teachers’ mathematics learning experiences and their belief related to mathematics teaching. The latter includes beliefs about mathematics, learning mathematics and teaching mathematics. Six first year pre-service mathematics teachers studying in Mathematics Education in a private university in Jakarta were interviewed using an in-depth semi-structured interview where they narrated their experiences in learning mathematics and defined their beliefs related to mathematics teaching. This study explains how the past experiences of the pre-service teachers connect with their beliefs related with mathematics teaching. Our findings showed that most participants experience learning mathematics through listening to teachers’ explanations about mathematical concepts and through working on mathematical exercises (drilling). This kind of learning relates with the instrumental and platonic view of mathematics. Consistently, participants in this study show that their beliefs related with mathematics teaching is derived from either the instrumental or platonic view of mathematics, while we did not find any that showed belief from a problem-solving view. This means that the participants believed that mathematics is seen of a set of facts, rules , or skills that is given or it sees mathematics or seen as something fixed and static.

Published: January 2025

IntroductionArtificial vascular scaffolds can mimic the structure of natural blood vessels and replace the damaged vessels by implanting them at the injury site to perform the corresponding functions. Electrospinning technology can perfectly combine biological signals and topographical cues to synergistically induce directed cell migration and growth.MethodsIn this study, poly (caprolactone) (PCL) nanofibers, PCL nanofibers uniformly coated with the extracellular matrix derived from endothelial cells (ECd), and bi-directional linear gradient ECd-coated PCL nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning and electrospray techniques to evaluate their effects on the proliferation and migration of Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and rapid endothelialization.ResultsThe results showed that HUVECs could successfully adhere to the surface of these three nanofibers and maintain high viability. The migration results indicated that the bidirectional linear gradient coating could accelerate the migration of HUVECs and the endothelialization process. On this basis, three types of bionic vascular scaffolds, including PCL vascular scaffold, uniform ECd-coated PCL vascular scaffold, and bi-directional linear gradient ECd-coated PCL vascular scaffold, were further prepared. The results showed that the topology and biological signal of the bi-directional linear gradient ECd-coated PCL vascular scaffold synergistically promoted the migration of HUVECs more effectively.DiscussionThis provides a new way to clinically promote the structural and functional recovery of damaged vessels and develop personalized or universal artificial vascular scaffolds, which is of great importance in cardiovascular regenerative medicine.

Published: January 2025

As the simplest free-living animal, Trichoplax adhaerens (Placozoa) is emerging as a powerful paradigm to decipher molecular and cellular bases of behavior, enabling integrative studies at all levels of biological organization in the context of metazoan evolution and parallel origins of neural organization. However, the progress in this direction also depends on the ability to maintain a long-term culture of placozoans. Here, we report the dynamic of Trichoplax cultures over 11 years of observations from a starting clonal line, including 7 years of culturing under antibiotic (ampicillin) treatment. This study revealed very complex population dynamics, with seasonal oscillation and at least partial correlations with the solar radio emission flux and the magnetic field disturbance parameters. Notable, the analysis of the distribution of Fe2+ in living animals revealed not only its high abundance across most cells but also asymmetric localizations of Fe2+ in unidentified cells, suggesting that these Fe2+ intracellular patterns might be coupled with the animal’s bioenergetics. We hypothesize that placozoans might have magnetoreception, which can be experimentally tested in future studies. In sum, Trichoplax, in particular, and Placozoa, in general, can be viewed as prospective reference species in traditional evolutionary and system biology but have the yet unexplored potential for planetary ecology and space biomedicine.

Published: January 2025

BackgroundGestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a temporary metabolic disorder in which small retinal vessels may have experience subtle changes before clinical lesions of the fundus retina appear. An innovative artificial intelligence image processing technology was applied to locate and analyze the small retinal vessel morphology and accurately evaluate the changes of the small retinal vessels in GDM patients and pregnant women with normal blood glucose and non-pregnant women with normal blood glucose.MethodsThe subjects were divided into three groups:GDM group, pregnant control group (PC), and normal control group (NC). Use optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) to collect OCT images of subjects,and perform quantitative identification and analysis of retinal vessel parameters based on artificial intelligence measurement software integrated the prior knowledge supervised edge-aware multi-task network (PKSEA-Net): Retinal arteriolar lumen diameter (RALD), retinal arteriolar outer diameter (RAOD), retinal venular lumen diameter (RVLD),retinal venular outer diameter (RVOD),arterial wall thickness (AWT),venular wall thickness (VWT),arterial wall to lumen ratio (AWLR),venular wall to lumen ratio (VWLR),arterial wall cross-sectional area (AWCSA),venular wall cross-sectional area (VWCSA), arteriovenous ratio (AVR).ResultsThis study revealed significant differences in RVOD, RVLD, VWT, VWCSA and AVR between the GDM group and the PC group (p = 0.005, p &lt; 0.027, p = 0.008, p = 0.001, p = 0.022), significant differences in RVOD, RVLD, VWT, VWCSA and AVR between the GDM group and the NC group (p &lt; 0.001, p = 0.001, p &lt; 0.001, p &lt; 0.001, p = 0.001). In GDM group, RVOD, RVLD, VWT and VWCSA increased, while AVR decreased. There were no significant differences in RVOD, RVLD, VWT, VWCSA and AVR between PC group and NC group (p = 0.139, p = 0.263, p = 0.107, p = 0.059, p = 0.218), and no significant differences in VWLR among the three groups (p &gt; 0.05). No significant difference was observed in retinal artery vascular parameters (RAOD, RALD, AWT, AWLR, AWCSA) across the three groups (p &gt; 0.05).ConclusionThere were increases in RVOD, RVLD, VWT, and VWCSA, decrease in AVR in patients with GDM. However, no significant difference of retinal vascular parameters was shown between normal pregnant women and normal non-pregnant women. PKSEA-Net can assist to identify changes in retinal vascular morphology and diagnose micro-vascular lesion early in normal pregnant women and high-risk groups of GDM.
