description: The present study aims to use green synthesized TiO2 as a photocatalyst in suspended and immobilized form under UV light to efficiently degrade a combination of reactive dyes, namely titan yellow, methyl orange, rhodamine B, and methylene blue. TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized using Tamarindus indica leaf extract and were utilized to parametrically study photo-degradation at room temperature. The green synthesized NPs were characterized by Powder XRD, SEM, and FTIR techniques to understand the crystalline phase/purity, morphology, and functional groups respectively. The TiO2 in suspension under UV light showed >90% degradation towards a 10 ppm composite dye at a loading of 1.5 gL−1, pH 7, and an irradiation time of 120 min. Subsequently, TiO2 was further immobilized in-situ, on inert supports of perlite granules and glass and studied for catalytic activity in batch and continuous modes. The TiO2 nanoparticles immobilized on perlite granules and glass showed 59 and 48% degradation in batch operation under the same conditions as in suspended form. In continuous mode, the highest degradation activity was recorded at 2 Lh−1 after 4 passes. Further, kinetic studies reveal that the degradation reaction is best described by Langmuir Hinshelwood kinetics for both suspended and immobilized TiO2.

description: CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) refers to learning with a dual focus, the integration of content jointly with a second language. CLIL’s fourth C-Cultures has been defined as the development of intercultural awareness, citizenship, and global understanding. It is argued, however, that C-Cultures has been neglected, and therefore requires deeper exploration. In this article, we suggest enriching it with the principles of transdisciplinarity, Social and Emotional Learning, and Service Learning. This will allow language teachers to incorporate impactful current events into their CLIL’ed classes. Such an enriched concept of C-Cultures can be a meaningful way to foster and expand a sense of community among learners. In our article, we will show how a combination of transdisciplinarity, Social and Emotional Learning, and Service Learning has led to positive learning outcomes and personal satisfaction for the stakeholders in our CLIL’ed ESP classes at Université catholique de Louvain (UCLouvain), Belgium.

description: It is generally agreed that learner engagement is a key factor for successful language learning and that coteaching increases instructional options for all students. However, it is still to be confirmed if supportive coteaching strategies can enhance active learner engagement in the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classroom, which is guided by a communicative approach. This article explores the level of engagement of a group of students involved in a series of activities conducted by co-teachers in an EFL classroom at a secondary school in Catalonia, and reports on some strategies co-teachers use to promote students’ interaction in English and their commitment to the task. Video recordings and transcripts were analysed in terms of a) students’ level of engagement and b) potentially related coteaching strategies. Findings indicate that engagement is present in the classroom in various ways, and that the differentiated supportive actions of the co-teachers contribute to higher levels of engagement when compared to the actions of an individual teacher. We argue that coteaching should be promoted in EFL classrooms in secondary education and included in teacher development programmes as a complement to other school practices.

description: Traffic accident forecasting is an important task for intelligent transportation management and emergency response systems. However, this problem is challenging due to the spatial heterogeneity of the environment. Existing data-driven methods mostly focus on studying homogeneous areas with limited size (e.g. a single urban area such as New York City) and fail to handle the heterogeneous accident patterns over space at different scales. Recent advances (e.g. spatial ensemble) utilize pre-defined space partitions and learn multiple models to improve prediction accuracy. However, external knowledge is required to define proper space partitions before training models and pre-defined partitions may not necessarily reduce the heterogeneity. To address this issue, we propose a novel Learning-Integrated Space Partition Framework (LISA) to simultaneously learn partitions while training models, where the partitioning process and learning process are integrated in a way that partitioning is guided explicitly by prediction accuracy rather than other factors. Experiments using real-world datasets, demonstrate that our work can capture underlying heterogeneous patterns in a self-guided way and substantially improve baseline networks by an average of 13.0%.

description: One of the educational challenges that European countries face nowadays is to include the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into their curriculums so that they could be achieved in 2030. Currently, the Catalan government has incorporated them into the last updated basic education curriculum in 2022. Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) and Project Based Learning (PBL) have shown their effectiveness to boost collaborative work and communicative competence. Furthermore, the inclusion of the SDGs in an international context could increase students’ motivation towards the learning of English as a foreign language. This article presents the design, implementation and the students’ outcomes of an international project that was carried out in English with primary students from Barcelona, Bogotá and Toronto. The results of Spanish students seem to suggest that they are motivated to participate in communicative situations when they are engaged in an international blended CLIL-PBL project on global issues related to SDGs. A welcoming and trusting environment is created in class so the engagement of most of the students rises, the feeling of belonging to a community is strengthened and their willingness of communicating in English is enhanced.

description: Iron is the most abundant transition metal on Earth. In this study, we have demonstrated an iron nanoparticle–loaded kaolin-catalyzed cross dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) reaction via C(sp3)–H activation. We use CDC of carboxylic acids with cyclohexenes to discuss various reaction parameters such as the amount of catalyst, oxidant, reaction temperature, and time. Under optimized reaction condition, the corresponding allylic ester was obtained with good yield of (85%). Screening of substituted benzoic acids and cyclic and acyclic olefins shows broad catalytic activities. Notably, the catalyst can be easily separated from the reaction mixture via simple centrifugation and remains active over five cycles of reuse.

description: In medical imaging, deep learning models can be a critical tool to shorten time-to-diagnosis and support specialized medical staff in clinical decision making. The successful training of deep learning models usually requires large amounts of quality data, which are often not available in many medical imaging tasks. In this work we train a deep learning model on university hospital chest X-ray data, containing 1082 images. The data was reviewed, differentiated into 4 causes for pneumonia, and annotated by an expert radiologist. To successfully train a model on this small amount of complex image data, we propose a special knowledge distillation process, which we call Human Knowledge Distillation. This process enables deep learning models to utilize annotated regions in the images during the training process. This form of guidance by a human expert improves model convergence and performance. We evaluate the proposed process on our study data for multiple types of models, all of which show improved results. The best model of this study, called PneuKnowNet, shows an improvement of + 2.3% points in overall accuracy compared to a baseline model and also leads to more meaningful decision regions. Utilizing this implicit data quality-quantity trade-off can be a promising approach for many scarce data domains beyond medical imaging.

description: Long-context large language models (LC LLMs) promise to increase reliability of LLMs in real-world tasks requiring processing and understanding of long input documents. However, this ability of LC LLMs to reliably utilize their growing context windows remains under investigation. In this work, we evaluate the performance of state-of-the-art GPT-4 suite of LC LLMs in solving a series of progressively challenging tasks, as a function of factors such as context length, task difficulty, and position of key information by creating a real world financial news dataset. Our findings indicate that LC LLMs exhibit brittleness at longer context lengths even for simple tasks, with performance deteriorating sharply as task complexity increases. At longer context lengths, these state-of-the-art models experience catastrophic failures in instruction following resulting in degenerate outputs. Our prompt ablations also reveal unfortunate continued sensitivity to both the placement of the task instruction in the context window as well as minor markdown formatting. Finally, we advocate for more rigorous evaluation of LC LLMs by employing holistic metrics such as F1 (rather than recall) and reporting confidence intervals, thereby ensuring robust and conclusive findings.

description: Green synthesis of four novel nonionic polymeric surfactants: from the recycled product of poly (ethylene terephthalate) plastic waste for application in corrosion protection of carbon steel. In this respect, PET waste was subjected to aminolysis and glycolysis via a reaction with Trimethylenediamine (TEDA) and Tri ethylene glycol (TEG) in the presence of suitable catalysts. The prepared materials were characterized by FT-IR, 1HNMR, and elemental analysis. It was evaluated as a corrosion inhibitor for steel (type-X60) used in the petroleum industry in the marine environment. Chemical, analytical, and electrochemical techniques were used for the evaluation of the corrosion inhibition efficiency of the prepared polymeric surfactants. The effect of concentration and temperature was studied. The maximum inhibition efficiency (IE) of 96% at an inhibitor concentration of 200 ppm and a temperature of 303 K. The glycoside and amide products were compared, the efficiency of amide products (96%) was higher than the efficiency of glycoside products (91%). According to potentiodynamic polarization data, the prepared surfactant boosts polarization resistance and inhibition performance by adsorbing on the metal/electrolyte interface. The surface morphology of steel was examined using SEM. A protective coating of inhibitor molecules forms on the steel surface.

description: Herein, we describe an efficient one-pot three-component microwave and ultrasound-endorsed approaches for synthesizing distinct 5-methylthiazole induced Betti bases (5-methyl-thiazol-2-ylamino-aryl-benzylnapthols) employing silica sulfuric acid (SSA, silica-OSO3H) as an active heterogeneous acid catalyst. The title compounds produced in good yields (86–95%) from naphthalen-2-ol, 5-methylthiazol-2-amine, and assorted aryl aldehydes; and structurally characterized by spectral and elemental analyses. A comprehensive comparative study of conventional, ultrasonic, and microwave-irradiated synthetic routes has been achieved by optimizing various reaction parameters. These new protocols provide several advantages, including the use of an inexpensive, non-toxic, and reusable catalyst. Additionally, they benefit from mild reaction conditions, short reaction times, and simple workup and purification procedures, thereby increasing their practicality. Furthermore, the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their anticancer potency against A-549 (lung cancer) and A-498 (kidney cancer) cell lines, with scaffold IVa demonstrating excellent (GI50 < 10 µg/mL) inhibitory activity against A-549. Additionally, molecular docking was performed to investigate potential binding interactions between ligands and proteins. Scaffold IVa exhibited the best docking with cancerous target proteins 1M17 (−8.9 kcal/mol) and 1M14 (−7.2 kcal/mol), thereby supporting our bio-activity studies.

description: Radiotherapy is an integral part of cancer therapy. Due to the low tissue specificity of radiation, damage to tumor-surrounding healthy tissue remains a major concern. Radio-enhancers based on inorganic nanomaterials have attracted considerable attention in recent years. In addition to widely exploited metal and metal oxides nanoparticles, 2D materials may offer potential advantages due to their intrinsically high specific surface area. Here, we report on the promising radio-enhancement properties of Ti3C2Tx MXenes. We show that Ti3C2Tx MXenes are readily internalized and well-tolerated by mammalian cells. In contrast to MXenes suspended in aqueous buffers which fully oxidize within days (yielding rice-grain shaped rutile nanoparticles), MXenes internalized by cells display slower oxidation rates, in line with cell-free experiments showing slower oxidation in cell media and lysosomal buffers compared to antioxidant-devoid dispersants. The MXenes show potent radio-enhancement properties with dose enhancement factors of up to 2.5 in human soft tissue sarcoma cells and no toxicity towards healthy human fibroblasts. Benchmarking against oxidized MXenes and commercial titanium dioxide nanoparticles indicates superior radio-enhancement properties of the intact 2D titanium carbide flakes. Taken together, this work provides direct evidence for the potent radio-enhancement properties of Ti3C2Tx MXenes rendering them a promising candidate material for radiotherapy enhancement.

description: While optical clock technology has advanced rapidly in recent years, incorporating the technology into operational timescales has progressed more slowly. The highest accuracy frequency standards for groundbreaking measurements do not easily translate to critical timing where continuous, uninterrupted operation over many months and years is required. For example, intermittent steering of a hydrogen maser with an optical standard fails to harness all of the dramatic improvements possible with optical technology. Here we present progress on development and integration of optical-clock technology for operational timescales. An optical oscillator steered to an atomic fountain comprises a hybrid clock with optical-level stability at short times and a reliable long-term reference, and obviates the need for a steered maser. Atomic beam optical clocks are being developed to support 24/7 operations at a level that improves upon the performance of the U.S. Naval Observatory's rubidium fountains. An optical lattice is being developed as a gold-standard frequency reference, complementing the role of the atomic beam clocks.

description: A practical colorimetric analysis for alcohol determination was devised using a composite of food colorants, specifically a green solution of brilliant blue FCF and tartrazine at a ratio of 1:5 v/v. This colorimetric method was characterized by its simplicity, user-friendliness, environmental compatibility, cost-effectiveness, and suitability for self-measurement through visual examination. The colorimetric procedure entails admixture 1 mL of the alcohol sample with 50 µL of the green test solution and 250 µL of a 30% NaOH solution at ambient temperature. The ensuing color changes were visually assessed within 5 min. Through color sensing, methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol were identified by the manifestation of lemon yellow, orange, and biphasic solutions, respectively. Ethanol was semi-quantified based on color sensing from green to orange, with corresponding concentration ranges. The limit of detection for both methanol and ethanol was determined to be 30% v/v. The developed method demonstrated an accuracy of 93%, with the error range of 1 − 10% v/v and standard deviation of 3.9% v/v, as confirmed by the analysis of 100 commercially available alcohol-based hand sanitizers. This methodology has the potential for further expansion to encompass a wide range of rapid colorimetric analyses of products containing alcohol, including food items, alcohol raw materials, and cosmetics.

description: Herein, we describe an efficient one-pot three-component microwave and ultrasound-endorsed approaches for synthesizing distinct 5-methylthiazole induced Betti bases (5-methyl-thiazol-2-ylamino-aryl-benzylnapthols) employing silica sulfuric acid (SSA, silica-OSO3H) as an active heterogeneous acid catalyst. The title compounds produced in good yields (86–95%) from naphthalen-2-ol, 5-methylthiazol-2-amine, and assorted aryl aldehydes; and structurally characterized by spectral and elemental analyses. A comprehensive comparative study of conventional, ultrasonic, and microwave-irradiated synthetic routes has been achieved by optimizing various reaction parameters. These new protocols provide several advantages, including the use of an inexpensive, non-toxic, and reusable catalyst. Additionally, they benefit from mild reaction conditions, short reaction times, and simple workup and purification procedures, thereby increasing their practicality. Furthermore, the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their anticancer potency against A-549 (lung cancer) and A-498 (kidney cancer) cell lines, with scaffold IVa demonstrating excellent (GI50 < 10 µg/mL) inhibitory activity against A-549. Additionally, molecular docking was performed to investigate potential binding interactions between ligands and proteins. Scaffold IVa exhibited the best docking with cancerous target proteins 1M17 (−8.9 kcal/mol) and 1M14 (−7.2 kcal/mol), thereby supporting our bio-activity studies.

A real experience in a high complexity school: Modelling small group conversations through coteaching in CLIL
Creators: name: Carrillo López, Cristina
name: Boldú Rodríguez, Susana
Publisher: name: CLIL Journal
Year: 2024

description: This paper aims to explore whether learning through coteaching promotes students’ speaking improvement. It has two objectives: (a) to explain the implementation of a coteaching model in a Project-based-learning (PBL) context through a foreign language (L2) in a high complexity primary school in Barcelona, Catalonia, and (b) to analyse how teachers, through coteaching, model L2 conversations to improve students’ discussions in small groups and their decision-making. As regards the implementation, the two teachers modelled interactions in the target language and provided the necessary scaffolding using visual aids and language support charts. Then students worked in small groups using a cooperative learning strategy called “Think-Pair-Share” (TPS) strategy. Regarding the coteaching model, the analysis of the video recorded lesson showed that the co-teachers’ prior modelling of the conversation in L2 together with scaffolding and cooperative learning techniques helped to promote students’ engagement and to improve their language fluency. These findings suggest that coteaching increased their participation in speaking activities, enhancing their confidence, and enriching their vocabulary repertoire. The article ends with some reflections on coteaching, the impact of modelling and the use of cooperative strategies on the students’ active learning process and the implications for teacher professional development.

Coteaching and CIC strategies to promote participation and communication in a CLIL primary school setting
Creators: name: Remolà-Elvira, Míriam

Publisher: name: CLIL Journal
Year: 2024

description: The present paper focuses on coteaching as one of the many collaborative strategies to deal with students’ needs in foreign language education (Escobar Urmeneta, 2020). This research analyses the team teaching modality of coteaching in a CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) setting in which both teachers equally share responsibilities and planning plays a fundamental stage to succeed in its implementation. The authors identify strategies used by both co-teachers to encourage students’ participation, identify students’ willingness to communicate and foster interaction in any CLIL primary classroom setting. The process of identification has been conducted by the analysis and transcription of three excerpts of a recorded CLIL Science lesson. Two vital recommendations emerge from this study: coteaching and co-planning on a regular basis increase the chances to interact with students and promote their participation and interaction involving multimodal ways of participation.

description: The long-duration balloon platform for radio detection of energetic neutrinos, pioneered by ANITA, affords large instantaneous effective areas but has limited livetime. Conversely, tethered balloons, traditionally used for radio detection of non-science objectives (such as electronic surveillance), allow for much longer livetimes, albeit at significantly lower altitudes. In this contribution, a tethered balloon platform for neutrino detection is considered, including estimates of the neutrino sensitivity and a discussion the feasibility of such a platform. Both the Askaryan and tau-neutrino induced Extensive Air Shower channels are explored as target science data for the platform. Tethered balloons locations on ice sheets, land, and in steep valleys or fjords will be considered. Ground-based array calibration and cosmic-ray air shower use cases will also be briefly commented on.

description: This study builds upon our experience with electrocatalyzed dearomatization of lignin in aqueous systems, which has shown to produce sodium levulinate, sodium 4-hydroxyvalerate, sodium acetate, and sodium formate as major products. Here, we extend this investigation by exploring a water/γ-valerolactone (GVL) solvent system for electrochemical depolymerization and dearomatization of lignin, using Na2CO3 as electrolyte. GVL, derived from biomass, has frequently been employed for biomass treatment, notably in the Organosolv process. Consequently, various biorefinery strategies have emerged utilizing GVL as a green platform, primarily for its potential in delignifying lignocellulosic biomass when combined with water and dilute acid. This study proposes electrochemical depolymerization of lignin in GVL as a step toward the concept of a bioelectrorefinery, aiming to convert lignin into aliphatic organic chemicals. Consistent with our prior work in aqueous systems, applying a current of −100 mA over 8 h yielded sodium levulinate, sodium 4-hydroxyvalerate, sodium acetate, and sodium formate. Confirmation was provided by liquid chromatography electrospray ionization high-resolution mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance, and infrared spectroscopy. These findings advance our understanding of GVL as a biomass-based platform, highlighting its potential not only for biomass treatment but also as a medium for converting lignin into valuable aliphatic chemicals.
