Tafsir Pesantren: Menakar Unsur Lokalitas Tafsir Jāmi' al-Bayān min Khulāṣat Suwar al-Qur'ān Karya Muḥammad b. Sulaymān (1911-1991)
Authors: Sufyan Abu 
Published: January 2022

Abstract: This article aims to reveal the locality of the brief Qur’anic exegesis of Muḥammad b. Sulaymān’s Jāmi‘ al-Bayān. By using content analysis, this study argues the existing of intersections between the Qur’anic interpretation and pesantren tradition. Several studies maintained that to build this harmonization, the traditional exegetes are used to transmit their interpretations in the form of Arabic “pegon” with the typical identity of “makna ghandul”. This article conversely argues that the Arabic language used in the interpretation of Jāmi‘ al-Bayān, which is written by a traditional and local ulama (kiai), could also be an alternative in the study of the Qur’an in the local context of pesantren. This article also maintains that although Muḥammad b. Sulaymān’s Jāmi‘ al-Bayān does not represent ideally the identity and tradition of pesantren in Java, his exegesis affirms the traditional pesantren values in two ways, namely teaching Arabic which is the pesantren curriculum and the affirmation of the Ahl al-Sunnah wa al-Jamā‘ah faith in responding to the excessive ta’wīl.
Keywords: traditionalist, locality, tafsir Jāmi‘ al-Bayān, pesantren.

Abstrak: Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengungkap unsur lokalitas dalam tafsir ringkas Jāmi‘ al-Bayān karya Muḥammad b. Sulaymān. Dengan menggunakan analisis konten, kajian ini menunjukkan adanya persinggungan antara tafsir al-Qur’an dan tradisi pesantren. Meskipun beberapa penelitian telah menunjukkan bahwa untuk membangun harmonisasi tersebut, para mufasir tradisional mentransmisikan penafsirannya dengan menggunakan huruf pegon dan makna ghandul sehingga melekat pada tradisi pengkajian al-Qur’an di pesantren. Sebaliknya, artikel ini berasumsi bahwa tafsir Jāmi‘ al-Bayān yang berbahasa Arab, yang ditulis oleh kiai lokal tradisional, bisa menjadi alternatif dalam pengkajian al-Qur’an khususnya di pesantren. Lebih jauh artikel ini menyimpulkan bahwa walaupun tafsir Jāmi‘ al-Bayān tidak merepresentasikan identitas dan tradisi pesantren di Jawa, di tengah kuatnya karya tafsir berbahasa lokal, tetapi tafsir ini meneguhkan nilai-nilai tradisi pesantren dalam dua hal, yaitu pengajaran bahasa Arab yang menjadi kurikulum pesantren dan peneguhan akidah Ahl al-Sunnah wa al-jama‘ah dalam merespon fenomena ta’wil yang berlebihan.
Kata kunci: tradisionalis, lokalitas, tafsir Jāmi‘ al-Bayān, pesantren.
Synthesis, characterization and biological activity of new mixed-ligand divalent metal complexes derived from 1,3,4-thiadiazole Schiff base and 2,2′‐bipyridine
Authors: Hassan Hanar , Tofiq Diary 
Published: January 2022

New mixed-ligand complexes of Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Zn(II), Pt(II) and Pd(II) transition metals were synthesized from a Schiff base 5-((Z)-((E)-3-phenylallylidene)amino)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol obtained by the condensation reaction between cinnamaldehyde and 5-amino-1, 3, 4-thiadiazol-2-thiol as a primary ligand (LH1) and the heterocyclic base 2,2′‐bipyridine (2,2′-bipy) as a secondary ligand (L2). The prepared ligand and their metal complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductivity measurement, magnetic susceptibility, infrared (FT-IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR), electronic (UV-Vis), mass spectrometry (MS), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), and screened in vitro for their potential as biological activity by the agar well diffusion method against Gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Gram-Positive Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) strain. The mixed-ligand complexes were found to have the following formulas [M (L1)(L2)]Y ⋅H2O L1 = Schiff base, L2 = 2,2′-bipy, (M = Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Zn(II), Y=NO3), (M=pd(II), Y=Cl2) and (M= pt(II), Y=Cl) for metallic complexes. L1 acts as a bidentate ligand and coordinates to a metallic ion center through imine nitrogen and a deprotonated sulfur atom. Similarly, L2 acts as a neutral bidentate ligand coordinating to the metallic ions via two nitrogen atoms. The resultant data have shown that the mixed-ligand complexes have an electrolytic nature and Co(II), Pt(II), and Pd(II) metal complexes have square planer structure, as well as tetrahedral geometry, has been proposed for the complexes of Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II). Thus, the biological activity data indicated that the Cu(II), Co(II), Zn(II), and Pd(II) complexes have a much higher biological activity than the Schiff base. It was found that the Zn(II) complex was more effective than the other metal complexes used against both types of the bacteria tested.
Effect of sperm DNA fragmentation on blastocyst formation rate and subsequent IVF outcome
Authors: Das Sankar Kumar , Kalita Krishna 
Published: January 2022

Background: Male infertility associated with sperm DNA alteration has raised a new issue in assisted reproduction techniques (ARTs).Methods: It was a retrospective analytical study on 250 cases of routine IVF/ICSI performed at Swagat ART Centre from January 2017 to January 2020. We divided the patient according to the sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) as normal DFI≤15%, n=95, a moderate DFI≤30%, n=89, and a high DFI group >30%, n=66. Oocytes of each patient were almost equally divided and fertilization method was adopted as half IVF half ICSI or only ICSI in poor quality (oligo, astheno, teratozoospermia or with two or all three defect and compared the fertilization, cleavage, embryo formation, blastocyst formation, pregnancy and early embryo formation rate among these six groups. Results: Fertilization, cleavage, embryo formation, and clinical pregnancy rates were reported as higher in ≤15% DFI group of both IVF and ICSI-ET (87.3±26.2, 77.7±26.1, 68.2±28.8, 50.8 in IVF and 78.3±17.8, 70.3±31.2, 67.2±28.8, 57.6 respectively). Significant differences (p<0.01) are observed among all six groups. Higher abortion rate is observed in high DFI group of both IVF and ICSI.Conclusions: High sperm DFI causes low blastocyst formation and pregnancy outcome. Higher abortion rate observed in high DFI group indicated need of further study.

Integration of Healthy Eating Habits and Physical Activity through Nutrition Care Process to Tackle the Obesity Epidemic: A Narrative Review of the Evidence
Authors: Philippou Christiana , Andreou Eleni 
Published: January 2022

Background: Obesity is a rising global health problem which is already at epidemic proportions. Effective methods of treatment are required and should be imparted by efficient means to dietitians and other health professionals dealing with weight management. Research shows that behavioral modification techniques are the most effective way to achieve and maintain a healthy weight compared to diet and physical activity alone.
Aim: This narrative review focusses on diet and physical activity behavioral modification techniques to promote effective weight management for sedentary and active adults using the Nutrition Care Process (NCP).
Methods: PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Science Direct, Web of Science and Pro-Quest databases were searched for relevant articles.
Results: A healthy eating habit is one of the contributing factors to improved health. Physical activities also help improve and maintain one’s health. This article discusses the importance of eating habits and physical activities among school students. In addition, health issues related to eating habits and the practice of physical activities are also highlighted. Overall, the results revealed that healthy eating habits and regular physical activities help in maintaining good health.
Conclusion: NCP is a systematic approach to provide high-quality nutrition care. Using the NCP does not mean that all clients get the same care. Use of a care process provides a framework for the dietitian to individualize care, taking into account clients’ needs and values, and using the best evidence available to make decisions.

Empowerment of rural women farmers and food production in Rathnapura district in Sri Lanka: a household level analysis
Authors: Rathnachandra S D D 
Published: January 2022

Women empowerment and gender equity are two significant aspects of the sustainable development of a country. As Sri Lanka is on the way towards sustainable development, this study was conducted to assess the situation of women farmers’ empowerment and food production in Rathnapura district of the country. A sample of 300 women farmers was randomly selected for the study, from two selected Divisional Secretariat (DS) of Rathnapura district. Data was collected from a field survey using a pre-tested, self-administered questionnaire survey from April to July 2019. Empowerment was analyzed using the empowerment framework used by RAHMAN AND NAOZORE in 2007 in the study of “Women Empowerment through Participation in Aquaculture” with necessary modifications. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis. Results revealed that majority of the women farmers were middle aged, married and had children. Furthermore, most of them had education up to secondary level. While average family size was four, average farm size was 1.25 acres. They had around 16 years of farming experience. The average monthly income of them was 25,000.00 LKR whereas 20% of it was from agriculture. The main sources of empowerment of women farmers were the Agrarian Service Center (55%) followed by village organizations/societies (30%) and microfinance institutions (26%). Furthermore, women empowerment index was 0.65. It is a moderate level of empowerment. However, there were women farmers under three categories of empowerment levels: low empowerment (4.1%), medium empowerment (58.5%) and high empowerment (36.1%). Out of the socio-economic factors; age, education, family size, land size, number of training programs participated, monthly income, experience in agriculture and number of organizations participated, education and number of training programs attended had significant and positive effect for the empowerment. Accessibility of credit facilities and agricultural extension program participation showed that there was a considerable impact on food production rather than the cultivable land size and utilization of modern farming technologies for food production. Therefore, proving of timely important agricultural education and training programs, enhance awareness level of modern farming technology utilization, better micro finance programs and agricultural credit facilities will be able to enhance the empowerment level of the women farmers of this area furthermore.

Resource use efficiency among rice farmers around fragile ecosystems: evidence from Kilombero Wetland, Tanzania
Authors: Kamau Philip , Willy Daniel , Ngare Lucy 
Published: January 2022

Farmers have been encroaching fragile wetlands as a strategy to increase their rice production thus threatening wetlands’ existence and capacity to other critical ecosystem services. This calls for efficient production to strike the balance between food rice production and wetlands’ sustainable existence. The current study sought to provide assess rice farmers’ technical efficiency of resource use by detecting the determinants of rice yield and further identify the determinants of technical efficiency of the resources used by rice farmers in Kilombero wetland. A cross-sectional survey of 145 randomly sampled farmers aided in achieving the study objective. A stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) model was used to analyze data. The mean technical efficiency among farmers was at 60.54% level. The positive determinants of rice yield were land and fertilizers while labor influenced it negatively. Age, education, farming experience, group membership, and credit access reduced inefficiency while the distance to the extension agent and off-farm income increased farmers’ inefficiency. The study concludes that there is a possibility of expanding rice production without threatening the wetland’s existence. It recommends that government and other stakeholders to ensure that rice farmers are up-to-date with optimal use of fertilizers in rice production since it will assist in improving rice yield while the rate of expansion of rice lands in the wetlands will lower. Policy implementers ought to establish initiatives that inspire rice farmers to capitalize on farmer groups and join education programs to take full advantage of their potential efficiency and might participate in community development activities.

Two sides of the one coin: Assessment of students who have previously failed a placement and the role of the practice teacher
Authors: Murray Ruth , McGovern Marguerita 
Published: January 2022

Abstract: Why does a student fail? What will be the student’s learning needs in any repeat placement? How does the student reflect on their previous placement experience? Can the Practice Teacher provide the appropriate learning experience and facilitate the student to attain the competencies needed to pass a repeat placement? So many questions for all of those concerned with the reality of a failed and repeat placement.This paper emanates from a presentation by both authors at the Glasgow Conference on Practice Teaching and Field Education in Health and Social Work in April 2014. It will examine the processes of social work placement failure and the task involved in finding a repeat placement for the student. Interesting topics for discussion include: What prompts Practice Teachers to take students who have previously failed? What preparations and conversations take place previous to the student started the repeat placement? How important is the involvement of the student’s Tutor in the planning of this next placement? A small sample of practice teachers’ experiences who offered placements to students (who had previously failed a placement) will be explored, as will conversations with students who had themselves previously failed. The conclusions attained by the authors both of whom are University Fieldwork Coordinators in researching this topic will be presented, with some interesting results.
The role of the practice educator in helping students develop critical reflection
Authors: Lawson Hilary 
Published: January 2022

This article offers advice to practice educators about the teaching of reflective and critically reflective practice to social work students on placement. It explains what is meant by critical reflection, it offers different tools and ways of teaching critical reflection to students, and it also strives to problematise the teaching of critical reflection- the meaning of which is itself contested and evolving- and to emphasise the need to subject all teaching tools to theoretical scrutiny and awareness of socially constructed context and assumptions. A critically reflective practice educator will interrogate the knowledge underpinning the skills and encourage the student to do the same. The article argues that students have different capacity to be reflective. It explores why many students find it difficult, and suggests that effective critical reflection develops only with time and experience.
Action Learning and professional formation of youth and community work students
Authors: Flett Julie , Tyler Mary 
Published: January 2022

This paper follows 3 cohorts of students 2012 -2015 and maps their perceptions of professional development using Action Learning sets as a pedagogical tool . It looks at learning immediately after the Sets have taken place and builds on this up to 3 years after graduating. The research found that Action Learning Sets as a pedagogical tool make a valuable contribution to professional formation of youth and community workers by enabling participants to:Consolidate learning from the courseBecome more confident and assertive about their professionalizationReflect together on practice as a learning community and learn about themselves within the group process Understand how and when to use appropriate questions to enable reflection by othersUnderstand different ways people perceive issues, their different thought processesCritically understand the importance and benefits of opening up people's thinking/gaining new perspectivesBe open and willing to listen, best for developing relationships Learn to listen in order to understand others and in so doing developing self-knowledge and problem solving skills.Practise some educator / facilitator skills Action Learning Sets outcomes appears especially important where they helped students develop confidence in their professional identity and in their ability to challenge to achieve recognition and change. However some participants discussed how an organisational culture that is not based on critically reflecting or even discussing professional approaches has impacted negatively on them as developing youth work professionals, echoing Stark’s (2006) similar findings from research on the impact of Sets used with nurses and educators. Many students commented that there was no supervision in the workplace and no mechanism for group reflective learning so individuals were left to self-reflect without the benefit of alternative perspectives which they had come to value as a result of taking part within the Sets. This implied a desire on the graduates’ part for continuing professional development . Further research into critically reflective practice using action learning sets in the workplace could be explored within organisations and any demand developed within HE programmes .

Assessing Social Work Students On Practicum at the United Arab Emirates University (UAEU): Challenges and Implications. Dr. Taghreed M. Abu Sarhan¹ (Director of Field Education)Dr Prospera TedamSocial Wellbeing Dept. UAEUContact: abusarhan@uaeu.ac.aeAbstractThe Social Work program at the United Arab Emirates University (UAEU) is the first and the only program-training students for Masters in Social Work (MSW) in the United Arab Emirates. MSW students are required to undertake 500 hours of practice in the field MSW while Bachelor in Social Work (BSW) students are required to complete 400 hours of practicum.This paper outlines both BSW and MSW practicum courses and examines the assessment tools and methods that contribute to their readiness for practice upon qualifying. The authors explore the framework in practicum settings in the UAE and critically reflect on the challenges of the current assessment methods in preparing professional social workers for practice upon graduation. The absence of service user contribution in the assessment process is considered a major disadvantage to the holistic development of social workers in the UAE and will be examined. Significantly, the two authors who are both female address the issue of gender within the context of assessment due to gender segregation in field practicum linked to the cultural and religious requirements in the UAE. The paper concludes with a number of recommendations to improve the assessment of social work students at both BSW and MSW levels at the United Arab Emirates University.Keywords: Social Work, Practicum, UAEU, Assessment methods, BSW and MSW.
Attempting to disrupt racial division in social work classrooms through small-group activities
Authors: Cane Tam 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
The notion of racial difference and racial segregation has continued to be problematic in higher education studies. Students belonging to Ethnic Minority groups often feel segregated even in courses and classrooms that promote anti-discriminatory and anti-racist practices. This paper presents a study that investigated seventy-five students from the BA and MA student cohorts within a London-based university. Students were encouraged to integrate and interrogate matters of race and belonging during a seminar on protected characteristics designed to disrupt racial division. Qualitative surveys were conducted to understand participants' views about racial disruption and experiences after the activities. Findings revealed ongoing segregation after the activity in and out of the classroom, fear of approaching racialised spaces, the need for additional brave reflective spaces that disrupt racial segregation and foster better understanding about race. The paper concludes by stressing the significance and value of racially disruptive teaching activities and racial assimilation in social work programmes as a means of tackling racial bias, segregation and decolonisation.
