description: FYCO1 (FYVE and coiled-coil domain containing 1) functions as an autophagy adaptor in directly linking autophagosomes with the microtubule-based kinesin motor, and plays an essential role in the microtubule plus end-directed transport of autophagic vesicles. The specific association of FYCO1 with autophagosomes is mediated by its interaction with Atg8-family proteins decorated on the outer surface of autophagosome. However, the mechanistic basis governing the interaction between FYCO1 and Atg8-family proteins is largely unknown. Here, using biochemical and structural analyses, we demonstrated that FYCO1 contains a unique LC3-interacting region (LIR), which discriminately binds to mammalian Atg8 orthologs and preferentially binds to the MAP1LC3A and MAP1LC3B. In addition to uncovering the detailed molecular mechanism underlying the FYCO1 LIR and MAP1LC3A interaction, the determined FYCO1-LIR-MAP1LC3A complex structure also reveals a unique LIR binding mode for Atg8-family proteins, and demonstrates, first, the functional relevance of adjacent sequences C-terminal to the LIR core motif for binding to Atg8-family proteins. Taken together, our findings not only provide new mechanistic insight into FYCO1-mediated transport of autophagosomes, but also expand our understanding of the interaction modes between LIR motifs and Atg8-family proteins in general.

description: Enumeration problems aim at outputting, without repetition, the set of solutions to a given problem instance. However, outputting the entire solution set may be prohibitively expensive if it is too big. In this case, outputting a small, sufficiently diverse subset of the solutions would be preferable. This leads to the Diverse-version of the original enumeration problem, where the goal is to achieve a certain level d of diversity by selecting k solutions. In this paper, we look at the Diverse-version of the query answering problem for Conjunctive Queries and extensions thereof. That is, we study the problem if it is possible to achieve a certain level d of diversity by selecting k answers to the given query and, in the positive case, to actually compute such k answers.

The School of Education, rated number one in the United States by at least one outside reviewer, was being challenged by the spectra of closure. Closure of a school of education in a university noted for having the first permanent chair, in 1879, devoted exclusively to the training of secondary school teachers and administrators; closure of school noted for having John Dewey so involved in teaching and research that he forgot and left the perambulator containing his baby in front of the Ann Arbor post office one sunny day; closure of a School of Education rated in 1977 as having the best undergraduate teacher education program and in 1983 the best graduate teacher preparation program . The fact of review sank in slowly for the faculty and students and is still sinking in. With relief, we can say that the recent reports of our demise have been greatly exaggerated. The fact is not that the School of Education is headed for closure but that the School of Education at The University of Michigan will take a 40% budget cut over the next five years.

description: There is little doubt that leading institutions of higher education feel they must do something to improve the standards of teacher education. This is not the only group that feels so obliged, but the term" leading institutions" implies a special mission. For convenience I shall construe such institutions as modem universities housing undergraduate programs in the academic disciplines for general education, graduate programs for academic specialists, and professional schools. A College of Education on such a campus is caught between demands from scholars in the disciplines and the well-established professions on the one hand and the demands of the public schools and classroom teachers on the other. As matters now stand, colleges of education seem to satisfy neither. Can they hope to do both? Should they try?

Constituting Conventions of Practice: An Analysis of Academic Literacy and Computer Mediated Communication
Creators: name: Mitchell, Jane

Publisher: name: Journal of Educational Thought / Revue de la Pensée Educative
Year: 2018

description: In this article we examine the use of computer mediated communication (CMC) with respect to the academic practices of students and instructors in university settings. Two questions framed this study: How are the literacy practices traditionally associated with academic work changing in light of new communicative technologies? And secondly, How do people learn to engage in these practices, particularly when the practice is new or developing and does not have clear rules or standards? An analysis of the relationship between language, technology and academic practice provides a key to responding to these questions. We examine this relationship in an academic context where a web based hypertext program was used as part of a doctoral seminar program. Based on our analysis we argue that an understanding of the language and literacy associated with CMC is essential if we are to learn how to engage thoughtfully and critically in this form of communicative practice. Further, we need to consider the educational value of new forms of reading and writing in a university setting, to take responsibility for making explicit the conventions and norms of these practices, and to make judgments about the pedagogical and social values associated with this technology.

Measures of male reproductive performance across mating events

Year: 2024
Subjects: Sexual selection

description: The cost of reproduction is well studied in females but only recently have the costs of mating been investigated in males. Research suggests that males allocate resources between subsequent mating events, resulting in differential success across mating bouts. Selection should favor allocation strategies that match the likelihood of successive matings. The complexity of the system, however, suggests that one fixed strategy is unlikely to be universally favored and thus I predict that genetic variation for different allocation strategies will be segregating in natural populations. To test this, I measured several components of reproductive performance in eight inbred genotypes of Drosophila melanogaster across three sequential mating events. As predicted, there was genetic variation in how previous experience affected a male's reproductive performance for both the proportion of matings that produced offspring and the proportion of offspring sired (P1). Some genotypes had the highest success in their first matings and declined in successive matings while other genotypes did best in later matings. Mating experience had consistent effects across genotypes on fertility and induced refractoriness to remating. On average, virgin matings produced the highest fertility, and third matings most effectively induced refractoriness. Genotype also had a significant effect on fertility. These results have important implications for understanding how selection may act on males when there is variation in the likelihood of multiple mating events and could affect the evolution of male allocation strategies in the face of perceived competitors.

"Is There a Class With This Content?" WebCT and the Limits of Individualization:
Creators: name: Rose, Ellen
Publisher: name: Journal of Educational Thought / Revue de la Pensée Educative
Year: 2018

description: This essay traces the provenance of Internet-based course delivery and management systems such as WebCT and Blackboard, and thereby seeks insight into the ideologies and assumptions underlying the current diffusion of such systems into institutions of higher education. A historical perspective reveals that these purportedly revolutionary pedagogical tools originated with the low-tech teaching machines with which behaviourists of the 1950s and 1960s sought to individualize instruction. Although widely touted as an educational panacea and source of learner empowerment, individualization emerged from a drive to make instruction more efficient by replacing the human teacher with a machine that delivered standardized content to a large number of students. This goal underlay further developments in computer-assisted instruction, computer-managed instruction, and integrated learning systems. The potential of contemporary Web-based systems to enhance classroom dynamics in higher education is therefore severely constrained by the legacy of individualization and the long-standing premise, embedded within the design of such systems, that the goal of technology-based instruction is to achieve efficiencies by replacing human interaction in the classroom with access to mediated, individualized content.

Thinking of the Other: Constructivist Discourse and Cultural Difference in the Field of Educational Technology
Creators: name: Shutkin, David
Publisher: name: Journal of Educational Thought / Revue de la Pensée Educative
Year: 2018

description: Learning in a technologically enhanced constructivist classroom is a practice of acculturation into a western culture of power and traditions of reasoning. For children positioned outside this culture historical practices of inclusion and exclusion erase cultural differences that make a difference in their educational lives. While constructivism may be understood by some in the field of Educational Technology as a rallying cry for the reform of schooling, it is experienced by others as an ethical crisis in the relation of the self to the other. Even as we pursue equity through the integration of technology in constructivist learning practices, we need to pause and consider how these pursuits may actually contribute to disparities between the technological haves and have-nots. The solution is not to abandon constructivism. Instead, we need to shift our constructivist practices to address the cultural, racial and gendered complexities inherent in schooling yet historically inconsistent with constructivist theory and practice.

description: Aspergillus carbonarius contributes to grape rots in vineyards and is responsible for the production of the mycotoxin, ochratoxin A (OTA) which affects the organoleptic characteristics of the wine and the grape quality. OTA poses a serious risk to consumer safety because of its nephrotoxic, hepatotoxic and carcinogenic properties. The goal of the present study is the evaluation of different greek vineyard varieties (Razaki, Mandilaria, Roditis, Malagouzia, Savatiano, Fraoula, Athiri, Sideritis, Mavrodafni, Asyrtiko, Xinomavro) concerning their resistance on A. carbonarius rots and OTA contamination. In vitro artificial infections were carried out on grape berries of the aforementioned varieties with a mixture of four ochatoxigenic strains of A. carbonarius isolated from Crete, Peloponnese, Attica and Macedonia. The evaluation of resistance was performed by assessment of A. carbonarius grape rot spots, conidia production and OTA production in berries. The results showed a significant variation among the grape varieties.

description: We provide a phonetic description of all 73 consonants of the endangered southern African language Nǀuu. Our segment classification uses just four linguistic dimensions (place, manner, phonation and airstream) and avoids the phonetically empty category click accompaniment. We provide acoustic, linguographic and palatographic evidence for active and passive articulators in the anterior constrictions of lingual (click) and linguo-pulmonic stops. We provide acoustic and ultrasound evidence showing that all click posterior constrictions involve the tongue root.. Contrastive lingual and linguopulmonic segments with the same anterior and posterior places of articulation differ in terms of airstream. Lingual stops employ a single airstream, while linguo-pulmonic stops are airstream contours. Structurally, linguo-pulmonic stops are parallel to affricates and prenasalized stops. Our evidence suggests that a contrast between “velar” and “uvular” clicks in ǃXóõ is also a contrast of simple vs. airstream contours, and that a click contrast solely in posterior place is anticipatorily impossible.

description: Using Illumina 450K arrays, 1.85% of all analyzed CpG sites were significantly hypermethylated and 0.31% hypomethylated in fetal Down syndrome (DS) cortex throughout the genome. The methylation changes on chromosome 21 appeared to be balanced between hypo- and hyper-methylation, whereas, consistent with prior reports, all other chromosomes showed 3–11 times more hyper- than hypo-methylated sites. Reduced NRSF/REST expression due to upregulation of DYRK1A (on chromosome 21q22.13) and methylation of REST binding sites during early developmental stages may contribute to this genome-wide excess of hypermethylated sites. Upregulation of DNMT3L (on chromosome 21q22.4) could lead to de novo methylation in neuroprogenitors, which then persists in the fetal DS brain where DNMT3A and DNMT3B become downregulated. The vast majority of differentially methylated promoters and genes was hypermethylated in DS and located outside chromosome 21, including the protocadherin gamma (PCDHG) cluster on chromosome 5q31, which is crucial for neural circuit formation in the developing brain. Bisulfite pyrosequencing and targeted RNA sequencing showed that several genes of PCDHG subfamilies A and B are hypermethylated and transcriptionally downregulated in fetal DS cortex. Decreased PCDHG expression is expected to reduce dendrite arborization and growth in cortical neurons. Since constitutive hypermethylation of PCDHG and other genes affects multiple tissues, including blood, it may provide useful biomarkers for DS brain development and pharmacologic targets for therapeutic interventions.

description: Join queries involving many relations pose a severe challenge to today’s query optimisation techniques. To some extent, this is due to the fact that these techniques do not pay sufficient attention to structural properties of the query. In stark contrast, the Database Theory community has intensively studied structural properties of queries (such as acyclicity and various notions of width) and proposed efficient query evaluation techniques through variants of Yannakakis’ algorithm for many years. However, although most queries in practice actually are acyclic or have low width, structure-guided query evaluation techniques based on Yannakakis’ algorithm have not found their way into mainstream database technology yet. The goal of this work is to address this gap between theory and practice. We want to analyse the potential of considering the query structure for speeding up modern DBMSs in cases that have been traditionally challenging. To this end, we propose a rewriting of SQL queries into a sequence of SQL statements that force the DBMS to follow a Yannakakis-style query execution. Through first empirical results we show that structure-guided query evaluation can indeed make the evaluation of many difficult join queries significantly faster.

description: Three differently substituted, naturally occurring, biologically active carbazole derivatives (viz. ekeberginine, murrayaquinone A, and glycozoline) were synthesized in good yield using short and simple routes. The prenyl group was selectively introduced at the C4 position using a Stille coupling reaction in the synthesis of ekeberginine. Murrayaquinone A was synthesized using Raney nickel–mediated desulfurization of dithiane as a key step. Synthesis of glycozoline was achieved in two steps from 3-methyl carbazole via an intermediate 3-bromo-6-methyl carbazole.

description: Three differently substituted naturally occurring, biologically active carbazole derivatives viz. ekeberginine, murrayaquinone A and glycozoline were synthesized in good yield using short and simple routes. Prenyl group was selectively introduced at C4 position using Stille coupling reaction in the synthesis of ekeberginine. Murrayaquinone A was synthesized using Raney nickel mediated desulfurization of dithiane as a key step. Synthesis of glycozoline was achieved in two steps from 3-methyl carbazole via an intermediate 3-bromo-6-methyl carbazole.
Agency Fragmentation: The Dilemma Facing Participative Management School Principals: [1]
Creators: name: Armstrong, Helen D.
Publisher: name: Journal of Educational Thought / Revue de la Pensée Educative
Year: 2018

description: Participative management has been lauded as the best administrative approach of the contemporary school principal. With an expectation for continuous, reciprocal consultation, the job of the school principal has become increasingly complex, with resultant significant effects on the manner in which role and identity, both personally and professionally, are constructed. Agency, the enabled will we seek in order to develop a consistent value pattern and to make decisions in conformance with that pattern, is much more likely to be challenged and diffused. The purpose of this article is to explore the concept of agency fragmentation with reference to life of the school principal. This conversation may encourage renewed dialogue that addresses the unique challenges that face all administrators who seek to invite and to honour the contributions of all stakeholders in education.

Reason, Communicative Learning, and Civil Society: The Use of Habermasian Theory in Adult Education
Creators: name: Gourhro, Patricia A.
Publisher: name: Journal of Educational Thought / Revue de la Pensée Educative
Year: 2018

description: This paper examines the use of Habermasian theory in adult education, looking at Habermas' focus on reason and rationality, his theory of communicative action, and his recent work on civil society. Despite criticisms of his work, the depth and breadth of his theory has been useful in developing critical education discourses and in encouraging educators to place their work in broader social contexts, and to engage in reflective and critical analyses of their educational practices.

description: Anchusa azurea is a lignocellulosic gramineous plant, and it has been selected as a renewable feedstock to be used in a liquefaction process to obtain biofuel. Milled Anchusa azurea stalks were converted to liquid products in methanol and isopropanol with (borax or iron(III) chloride) and without catalyst in an autoclave at temperatures of 260, 280, and 300°C. The liquefaction parameter effects such as catalyst, solvents, and temperature were investigated. The highest percentages of liquid yields from methanol and isopropanol conversions were 64.70% (with borax) and 29.20% (with borax) at 300°C in the catalytic runs, respectively. The highest conversion (73.80%) was obtained in methanol with borax catalyst at the same temperature. The obtained liquid products at 300°C were analyzed and characterized by elemental, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Seventy-three different compounds have been identified by GC-MS in the liquid products obtained in methanol at 300°C.

description: This study compares different methods to predict the simultaneous effects of conductive and radiative heat transfer in a Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) sample. PMMA is a kind of polymer utilized in various sensors and actuator devices. One-dimensional combined heat transfer is considered in numerical analysis. Computer implementation was obtained for the numerical solution of governing equation with the implicit finite difference method in the case of discretization. Kirchhoff transformation was used to get data from a non-linear equation of conductive heat transfer by considering monochromatic radiation intensity and temperature conditions applied to the PMMA sample boundaries. For Deep Neural Network (DNN) method, the novel Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) method was introduced to find accurate results in the least processing time than the numerical method. A recent study derived the combined heat transfers and their temperature profiles for the PMMA sample. Furthermore, the transient temperature profile is validated by another study. A comparison proves a perfect agreement. It shows the temperature gradient in the primary positions that makes a spectral amount of conductive heat transfer from a PMMA sample. It is more straightforward when they are compared with the novel DNN method. Results demonstrate that this artificial intelligence method is accurate and fast in predicting problems. By analyzing the results from the numerical solution it can be understood that the conductive and radiative heat flux is similar in the case of gradient behavior, but it is also twice in its amount approximately. Hence, total heat flux has a constant value in an approximated steady state condition. In addition to analyzing their composition, ROC curve and confusion matrix were implemented to evaluate the algorithm performance.

description: This paper presents experimental results using the ORL (40 people) and FERET (994 people) databases. The ORL database can be useful for securing applications where few users attempting to access are expected. This is the case, for instance, of a PDA or PC where the password is the face of the user. On the other hand, the FERET database is useful for studying those situations where the number of authorized users is around a thousand people.

description: The distribution system aims at giving meaning to the world which surrounds us and at acquiring a greater control of our behaviour and that of others. The explanation of failure and success can be affected by several skews or sources of errors such as that of kindness, humility, the position of actor or observer, fundamental error, the effect of polydoxy, and the type of question. This article examines the results of research undertaken with 324 teachers who came to conclusions about causes of the failure and the success of their pupils. The results show that the teachers allot the success and the failure primarily to the pupil. They related failure to the social and institutional context while they related success to the pupil and the teacher.

description: This article describes, for the first time in 10 years, the toxicological evaluation of pesticide residues in highly consumed vegetables (35 commodities) and health risk studies. Among 1075 vegetable samples consisting mainly of tuber, root, fruiting, and Brassica, 20% of samples contained 38 pesticides in the range of 0.005–18.7 mg/kg and 1% > maximum residue limits (MRLs). Organophosphates and chloronitrile were most frequently found (20%) in the pesticide class. The highest concentration of 18.7 mg/kg was noted for dichlofluanid. Fruiting vegetables (8%), especially tomatoes (5%), were the most contaminated, while multi-residues were determined in 5% of the samples. Risk assessment was performed by analytical results and consumption on the 97.5 percentile expressed as hazard index (HI) and hazard quotient (HQ). The highest chronic HI was calculated for diazinon in lettuce (32% Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) adults and 36% children) and for forbidden dieldrin in carrots (26%, 62% ADI). The highest acute HI was estimated for dichlofluanid in lettuce (69% Acute Reference Dose (ARfD)) for adults, whereas for children it was above the acceptance values of ARfD (168%). Organophosphate insecticides with common mode of action showed the greatest HQ (108% ADI). Vegetables may not be a serious problem for consumers, but investigations on pesticide residues are necessary to ensure food safety and the protection of human health, especially toward children who are more highly exposed to pesticides than adults.

description: Education within the general concept of development has become a common article of faith worldwide. While education has been seen as the most appropriate strategy for eliminating underdevelopment, social inequality, and injustice in the Third World, development is understood as personal and social growth as well as micro and macro economic advancement. Concepts of globalization and how they impact on education and its outcomes in different societies and diversified economic contexts is receiving increasing attention. This paper will explore the role of education (primary, secondary, and higher education) in enhancing processes of economic and social development in Ghana. I will also examine how theories of human capital and equity apply to Ghana the context of global economy.
