Teacher Competence in Developing Post-Reading Skills - An Empirical Study

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Background: The ultimate goal of reading is comprehension. The strategy for teaching reading comprehension has three stages, namely the pre-reading stage, the while-reading stage and the post-reading stage. The post-reading stage reflects upon questioning, clarifying and justifying comprehension, asking for specific questions, reviewing and follow-up strategy. Objectives: The chief purport of the present research is to delineate the level of competencies among the teachers in developing post-reading skills among students in the State of Telangana with special reference to gender, qualifications and experience. Methodology: The sample constitutes Seven hundred (700) teachers working in the Secondary Schools of the State of Telangana. Simple random sampling technique was employed to elicit information from the selected sample .A self-designed questionnaire was developed keeping in view the objectives and hypotheses of the study. It contained thirteen statements on the Five-point Likert Scale. Findings: The Chi-square tests findings revealed that a scintillating majority of the sample possessed 'average levels' of competence in developing post-reading skills among students in the State of Telangana with respect to gender, qualification and experience. Conclusion: It is evident from the research that teachers even with average levels of competence can create evaluating comprehension in particular tasks, clarifying and justifying the learner's answers, asking questions for specific information, reviewing and following up activity at the post-reading stage.The findings of the study provide implications for teachers, students as well as for implementing authorities.
Childrenʼs Self-reported Physical Fitness In Relation To Parent Report And Objective Measure

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

It is unknown if children can accurately self report their overall level of physical fitness and rate of perceived exertion following a maximal exercise test. PURPOSE To determine the relationship between self reported and parent reported physical fitness in a pediatric population. METHODS Seventy-five children were referred to a pediatric exercise lab for cardiopulmonary exercise testing (64 tested on cycle ergometer using ramp protocol, 11 tested on treadmill using Bruce protocol). After test procedures were explained, each child was asked to rate their physical ability on a scale of 1 to 100 (1=highest ability, 100=lowest ability). The parent/guardian of each child was also asked to rate the child's fitness on the same scale. The child was asked to predict how hard the exercise test would be on a scale of 6–20 (Borg scale for children). Each child was asked again to rate their maximal exertion using the Borg scale at the end of the test. RESULTS There were 42 boys, age 11.7±3.4 years and 33 girls, age 13.9±3.6 years. Forty had structural heart disease (HD). The correlation between parent and child reporting of physical fitness was moderate (r=0.57, p < 0.01). Both child and parent reports correlated poorly with VO2max. However, the average of parent and child reports had slightly stronger correlation with VO2max (r=0.37, p=0.01). Compared with girls, boys were more likely to report better than their parent (p=0.07). Children ≤12 years were more likely to report better than their parent (p < 0.01) than children > 12. The parent-child correlation on physical fitness was similar between children with HD and children without HD. Predicted maximal rate of perceived exertion increased from a mean of 13.5 at pre test to a mean of 15.8 at post test (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION There was moderate correlation between parent or child report of physical fitness, but neither predicts the child's objectively measured fitness level. Young age and male patients tend to self report a better fitness level than the parent. In children, the perceived exertion is generally higher than anticipated exertion in clinical exercise testing.
Local marker for interacting topological insulators

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Topological states of matter were first introduced for non-interacting\nfermions on an infinite uniform lattice. Since then, substantial effort has\nbeen made to generalize these concepts to more complex settings. Recently,\nlocal markers have been developed that can describe the topological state of\nsystems without translational symmetry and well-defined gap. However, no local\nmarker for interacting matter has been proposed yet that is capable of directly\naddressing an interacting system. Here we suggest such a many-body local marker\nbased on the single-particle Green's function. Using this marker we identify\ntopological transitions in finite lattices of a Chern insulator with Anderson\ndisorder and Hubbard interactions. Importantly, our proposal can be\nstraightforwardly generalised to non-equilibrium systems.\n

Slovene Terminology Web Portal

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Work in the field of terminology is extensively supported worldwide as it enhances the
transfer of science and technology. In Slovenia, there is a series of terminology-related
activities running, and a significant number of terminology dictionaries and terminological
data exist, but they are methodologically heterogeneous and often unavailable for public
use. Traditionally, terminology work in Slovenia is closely connected with other activities
in the filed of lexicology and lexicography, especially regarding the methodological
approach to the compilation of dictionaries of specialised languages. Therefore,
terminology work is mostly regarded only as a process involving the compilation of
dictionaries. The paper presents the Slovene Terminology Web Portal project. The main
objective of the project is to develop the Slovenian terminology portal to offer basic
information on the principles of terminological work and to present a terminological
database in a unified format. In the core of the presentation, there is a process of
conversion of different types of existing terminology data from different sources into XML
format with a simple DTD/schema and from there to unified TBX database. Simultaneously,
the feasibility of linking textual resources and the extraction of term candidates with the
terminological database is also shortly presented.
The Maximum-Rate Horner Method: An Improved Method of Analysis for Afterflow-Dominated Buildup Tests

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

SUMMARY The Maximum Rate Horner (MRH) method is a new technique to analyze the data from pressure buildup tests with significant afterflow. It can also be used when the buildup period is preceded by sequentially declining variable rates. In this method the pressure is plotted against a modified Horner time, defined using effective flowing (tp) and buildup (Δt) times. Both these times are corrected with a simple function to properly account for the total volume of fluid produced from the formation. It is shown here that afterflow has a permanent effect on the slope of the Horner straight line if it is neglected. The estimates of permeability (k) and skin (s) are then wrong even if they are based on afterflow-free pressure data. Expressions for these errors in the slope and parameter estimates are presented here. It is also proved that, with its use of corrected values for tp and Δt, the MRH method is not susceptible to such errors. The MRH method also reduces the buildup time required to define the Horner straight line, typically by a factor of two to three. The empirical parameter a in the van Everdingen-Hurst model for afterflow is shown to have a physical significance in the context of the MRH method. These findings are illustrated using field and simulated buildup tests.
DINAMIKA PSIKOLOGIS RESILIENSI PADA KORBAN GHOSTING

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

The phenomenon of ghosting is widely interpreted as a way of avoiding and breaking away from relationships without including an explanation. Psychologist Jennice Vilhauer said that ghosting is a silent treatment, which in psychology is seen as emotional cruelty. The purpose of this study is to explain the resilience dynamics of individuals who are victims of ghosting in Solo Raya. This study uses qualitative methods with interviews and observations. The subjects of this research are four students who live in Solo Raya with an age range of 19-25 years who have been victims of ghosting. Data analysis techniques used are data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. From the research, it was found that the subject had poor psychological dynamics. This can be seen from the negative changes in three aspects of psychological dynamics, namely cognitive, affective, and behavioral after experiencing a ghosting event. The resilience ability that is owned is quite good. This can be seen from four aspects, namely the ability to analyze problems, empathy, self-efficacy and positive self-achievement. However, there are three aspects that cannot be controlled by the subject, namely the ability to control emotions, control impulses and an attitude of optimism.Keywords: Ghosting; Psychological Dynamics; Resilience
Assessment of Taungya agroforestry system in dryland forests rehabilitation in Sudan

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

The decline of the forest cover due to deforestation and agricultural expansion in Sudan has reached a critical situation. Taungya agroforestry systems have been used as a strategy to safeguard against this process, allowing farmers to cultivate their subsistence crops at the early stage of tree plantations. The current study research tackled Nabag Forest Reserve (NFR) as a case study to assess and explore <em>Taungya</em> agroforestry system as a practice used for forest rehabilitation in the study area. Satellite images of Landsat 5 Thematic Mapper, and Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager/Thermal Infrared Sensor of 1991, 2001, 2011, and 2021 were used to generate forest cover maps. Both unsupervised and supervised classification, as well as ground truth points, were applied to classify the vegetation cover in NFR as dense forest (DF), light forest (LF), agricultural field (AF), and bare land (BL). The results showed that two trends of forest cover changes occurred in NFR between 1991-2001 and 2011-2021. It was well explored that through <em>Taungya </em>agroforestry, there was a considerable increase in forest cover over this period. This could be clearly detected by increasing dense forest and light forest cover by 1041.73 ha (24.95%) and 2.95 ha (0.07%), respectively and decreasing of bare land and agricultural field by 409.79 ha (9.81%) and 634.52 ha (15.15%) during the addressed period. The findings of the study indicated that <em>Taungya</em> agroforestry system could be a feasible land-use alternative for forest recovery in the dry land of Sudan.

Childbirth

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Bearing children was to Luther's mind women's paramount function. Without the creation of Eve, humankind would have died out with Adam. There was at the outset no human counterpart to the female of every other species, with which the bucks, boars, bulls, and billy goats were able to reproduce their kind. Eve had other salient duties, such as to assist Adam in all his tasks and to be his companion. In these he could theoretically have been aided by another man. But only with a woman could he “be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth.”
The impact of delay in diabetic patient's referral for diabetic retinopathy screening on the level of retinopathy detected in adult Sudanese diabetic Sudanese patients

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background: Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the most common complications of diabetes mellitus (DM) which needs early detection. Delay in referral of patients with significant DR by physicians to the concerned ophthalmologist may compromise visual outcome since early treatment is associated with a 50% reduction in the risk of visual loss.Objective: The aim of this study is to assess the relationship between delays in diabetic patient's referral for DR screening after diagnosis of DM and the level of the DR detected at Sudan.Materials and Methods: A 2-year prospective cross-sectional study was conducted on 240 patients with type I and II, newly referred patients in the period from January 2013 to February 2015. The estimated time lapse between this first DR screening and the onset of DM was recorded as "delay period" in diabetic patient's referral for DR screening, which was compared with the level of DR and the level of visual loss at the time of the first visits.Results: In a 2-year study (2013–2015), 240 were newly referred diabetic patients, 225 type 2 DM (93.75%), and 15 (6.25%) type I DM. DM duration was 17.6 years (2–40 years); 202 with poor control. Eighty-nine were hypertensive with a mean duration of 3.7 years. About 83.3% were referred by general ophthalmologists, 10.4% by physicians, 4.2% by optometrists, and 2.1% by their own will. Nearly 85% referred for their visual disturbances and 15% for self-referral. Two hundred and eleven patients (87.09%) had one form of DR; while only 29 patients did not apparent DR. Low-risk DR recorded in 174 (72.5%), high risk in 66 (27.5), and diabetic macular edema (DME) in 94 (39.2%). The average delay was 14.8 years; 15.5 years for men and 14.04 years for women. The average percentage of visual loss in the low-risk group was 16.7% (visual score of 83.3%). While the visual loss in the high risk was 69.3% (visual score of 30.7%). DME reported 36.6% visual loss and 63.4% visual score. The mean visual loss in all diabetic study population was 40.9% with the total visual score of 59% which equivalent to 6/40 at the moderate low vision range of the World Health Organization.Conclusion: There was a strong correlation between the levels of DR detected and the percentage of visual loss. The "no apparent DR group" recorded the minimal detection of visual loss.
(Invited) Artistic: An AI and Modeling-Supported Digital Infrastructure for Battery Manufacturing Optimization

Field: Chemical Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Energy, power, lifetime and safety of Lithium ion batteries (LIBs) are determined in part by the internal microstructure of the electrodes. That microstructure is characterized by the spatial location and the resulting interfaces between the active material particles, the conductive additive, the binder and the pores. The microstructure is determined by the manufacturing process of the electrodes, which encompasses, in its traditional wet form, multiple steps and numerous parameters. Therefore, its optimization is difficult and can be time consuming and costly if carried out only on the basis of a trial and error approach. In this lecture I discuss a digital infrastructure for accelerated optimization of the manufacturing process of LIBs that we are developing since few years: ARTISTIC. 1 Such digital infrastructure is supported on a hybrid approach encompassing a physics-based multiscale modeling workflow, Artificial Intelligence (AI)/machine learning models and high throughput experimental characterizations. 2 ARTISTIC simulates different steps along the battery cells manufacturing process, such as the electrode slurry preparation, the coating, the drying, the calendering and the electrolyte infiltration. For that purpose, it uses a combination of sequentially-coupled 3D-resolved physical models based on experimentally-validated Coarse Grained Molecular Dynamics, Discrete Element Method and Lattice Boltzmann Method. This allows predicting the impact of the manufacturing process parameters on the final electrode microstructure in three dimensions. The predicted electrode microstructures are then injected in a continuum performance simulator capturing the influence of the electrode microstructure on the solid electrolyte interphase formation (for anodes) and the electrochemical response (of anodes vs. lithium, cathodes vs. lithium and the full cells). Machine learning models are used to unravel manufacturing parameters interdependencies from the physical models’ predictions and experimental data, and to suggest manufacturing process optimizations. The predictive capabilities and chemistry-neutrality of the ARTISTIC digital infrastructure are illustrated with results for different LIB electrode formulations and chemistries (NMC, LFP, graphite, silicon/graphite blends) and also for organic active materials for sodium ion batteries. Finally, I discuss the free online battery manufacturing simulation services (online caculator and associated databases) offered by our project and that you can use interactively from your Internet Browser. 3 References: [1] ERC Consolidator Project ARTISTIC, grant agreement #772873 ( https://www.erc-artistic.eu/ ).

Prediction of Student Performance in Academic and Military Learning Environment: Use of Multiple Linear Regression Predictive Model and Hypothesis Testing

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

The variance in students’ academic performance in a civilian institute and in a military technological institute could be linked to the environment of the competition available to the students. The magnitude of talent, domain of skills and volume of efforts students put are identical in both type of institutes. The significant factor is the physical training, students undergo in a military college. It is important to couple the dominating factor which is academic perceivable effort under a different environment with each students learning capability. This paper determine whether there is a relationship between students’ performance and influencing factors like academic aptitude, military or physical training, and the time spent on training need analysis (TNA) modules. A sample of 242 first year- undergraduate students from four different engineering programs (Marine, System, Civil, and Aeronautical) at Military College was used to explore this relationship. The multiple regression model used for predicting the students’ performance is adequate for independent variables of aptitude test score, time spent in physical training, and time spent in TNA modules. The values of R2 indicate that at least one of the predictor variables contributes to information for the prediction of the students’ performance. The model makes it possible to predict moderately the possibility of attrition in engineering program. This study verifies that military academy has a very defined and directed core engineering course load and TNA course load which every student must take. Therefore, choice of specific discipline have less impact than at civilian institutions. The early detection of students at academic risk is a useful instrument that can help to design mentoring strategies right from the end of admission process.
Low Enrichment Fuel Conversion for Iowa State University (Progress Report for Period August 1, 1991-July 31, 1992)

Field: Energy (Physical Sciences)

The UTR-10 reactor at Iowa State University which went critical on low enriched uranium (LEU) fuel on August 14, 1991. However, subsequent to the criticality experiments the fuel plates started to discolor. In addition, roll pins used to lift the fuel assemblies were discovered to be cracked. It was determined that these problems were due to chemical agents in the primary coolant water. The roll pins were replaced by solid stainless steel pins. The primary coolant was replaced and the reactor is currently in operation. Surveillance specimens will be used to monitor any possible future discoloration. The high enriched fuel (HEU) is being prepared for eventual shipment to a high enriched fuel receiving facility.
THE REPRESENTATION OF SUBCONCEPT THE BRITISH IN THE RUSSIAN BÉLLES-LÉTTRES

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The purpose of this article is to analyze the lexical means of verbalization of the subconcept “THE BRITISH” in the Russian belles-lettres. The problem of national identity is closely related to the problem of national stereotype. The stereotype, including the national one, is closely related to the linguistic factor and has a discursive nature. According to S. Filyushkina, the national stereotype also creates its own special, verbalized reality, reflecting the nation’s ideas about itself or about another, very biased as a rule. These ideas have a collective character and are inherited by the individual due to education, the influence of the environment and public opinion. From the standpoint of the textual approach, the analysis of the linguistic embodiment of the kernel and the near periphery of the modern Russian literature of various periods (over 1000 samples). Verbalization of the image of the British in the artistic picture of the world is carried out using such frames as character, appearance, clothing, behavior. The appearance of the British is often assessed negatively. In terms of character, behavior and clothing, the British are divided into gentlemen and non-gentlemen. The former receive either a positive or an ironic assessment, the latter – more often negative, sometimes ironic. The good manners of the English are highlighted, especially in the process of their meal. English speech and pronunciation are also important from the point of view of authors.
