Laili, Diyah Muthiatul. 2015. Registered Number Student. 3213113064. Improving Students' Speaking Skill through Oral Presentation Technique of The Tenth Grade Students at MAN Trenggalek. Sarjana Thesis. English Education Department. Faculty of Tarbiyah and Teacher Training. State Institute (IAIN) of Tulungagung.  improve, public speaking skill, oral presentation Improving students' speaking skill is very challenging for every teacher. However, the students' ability to function another language is characterized by their ability in speaking that language. Besides, EFL learners have problems in learning speaking. The problems are inhibition, nothing to say, low of participation, mother tongue used, lack of confidence, limited vocabularies, and affraid in doing mistakes when speaking. The focus problem to be solved is students' problem in low participation which make them being passive in speaking class. One technique which can be used to improve students' speaking skill is through oral presentation. Oral presentation is an activity of sharing or communicating ideas and information in front of audiences which has been widely adopted by EFL teacher to promote oral proficiency. There are advantages of using oral presentation for improving speaking skill; integrating language skill, practicing speaking, making decision, and etc. Through this technique the students also trained to be more active and confidence in speaking in front of public. The formulation of research problem was: How can oral presentation technique improve students' public speaking at MAN Trenggalek? Whereas the purpose of this study was to investigate how oral presentation technique can improve students' public speaking skill at MAN Trenggalek. Research Method:1) the research design in this study was Classroom Action Research (CAR) using Kemmis and Taggart model which consist of cycle; planning, implementing, observing and refelecting 2) the subject of this study was all students of Matematika dan Ilmu Alam (MIA 5) academic year 2014/2015 at MAN Trenggalek which consist of 35 students (29 females and 9 males) 3) the research instrument used in this study were; observation sheet or checklist, and test. 5) the data were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. The result of this study shows that the students' participation during teaching and learning process in the cycle 1 to cycle 2 were improved. It's indicated by in cycle 1 the students' participation percentage was 67,85 (little bit active) and became 81,25% (active) in cycle 2. For the students' public speaking skill was also improved. It was proved by the students' success percentage, in cycle 1 only 40% (14 students) could pass. Then, in cycle 2, 74% (26 students) could pass. In conclusion, oral presentation as the technique in teaching and learning is effective to improve students' public speaking skill.

A new fungal genus, Teracosphaeria, with a phialophora like anamorph (Sordariomycetes, Ascomycota)
Venue: Mycological research
Year: 2007

The new genus and species Teracosphaeria petroica is described for a perithecial ascomycete and its anamorph occurring on decayed wood collected in New Zealand. The fungus produces immersed, non stromatic ceratosphaeria like perithecia in nature, with hyaline, septate ascospores produced in unitunicate, non amyloid asci. The anamorph produced in vitro is phialophora like with lightly pigmented phialides terminating in flaring, deep collarettes that are often noticeably brown with conspicuous periclinal thickening. Phylogenetic analysis of LSU rDNA sequence data indicates that this fungus is distinct from morphologically similar fungi classified in the Chaetosphaeriales, the Trichosphaeriales or the Magnaporthaceae. It forms a monophyletic group with recently described, chaetosphaeria like ascomycetes, such as the pyrenomycete genus Mirannulata, and shows affinity with the anamorphic species Dictyochaeta cylindrospora. The usefulness of describing anamorph genera for morphologically reduced anamorphs, when anamorph characteristics are actually part of the holomorph diagnosis, is discussed. An apparently contradictory example of the so called Cordana and Pseudobotrytis anamorphs of Porosphaerella spp. is also discussed.
[Trans fatty acids and conjugated linoleic acid in food: origin and biological properties]
Venue: Nutricion hospitalaria
Year: 2019

Trans fatty acids (TFA) are minor lipid components present in different foods, including ruminant derived products, which have received great attention due to their relationship with cardiovascular disease risk. The origin of TFA in food is mainly related to the industrial hydrogenation processes of unsaturated vegetable oils, but they can also occur naturally in the digestive tract of ruminants by enzymatic biohydrogenation reactions. Both mechanisms generate similar TFA compounds. However, TFA consumption may exert different biological effects depending on the isomeric distribution, which is strongly influenced by the dietary source (i.e. industrial or natural) Industrial hydrogenated vegetable fats are rich in elaidic (trans 9 18:1) and trans 10 18:1 fatty acids, among others. In contrast, vaccenic acid (trans 11 18:1) is the major TFA isomer detected in milk and other ruminant derived products. Vaccenic acid is the physiological precursor of conjugated linoleic acid, a bioactive lipid with beneficial effects on human health. This article provides updated information on the biological effects and potential bioactive properties of TFA considering both, their chemical structure and provenance.
Comprehensive abundance analysis of red giants in the open clusters Stock 2, NGC 2168, 6475, 6991, and 7762
Venue: Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
Year: 2019

We have analysed high dispersion echelle spectra $R 60000$ of red giant members of five open clusters to derive abundances for many elements from Na to Eu. The [Fe/H] values are 0.06\pm0.03$ for Stock 2, 0.11\pm0.03$ for NGC 2168, 0.01\pm0.03$ for NGC 6475, $0.00\pm0.03$ for NGC 6991 and 0.07\pm0.03$ for NGC 7662. Sodium is enriched in the giants relative to the abundance expected of main sequence stars of the same metallicity. This enrichment of [Na/Fe] by about +0.25$ attributed to the first dredge up is discussed in the light of theoretical predictions and recently published abundance determinations. Abundance ratios [El/Fe] for other elements are with very few exceptions equal to those of field giants and dwarfs, i.e. [El/Fe] \simeq 0.00$ for [Fe/H] \sim 0.0$ An exception is the overabundance of La, Ce, Nd and Sm in NGC 6991 but this is consistent with our previous demonstration that the abundances of these $s$ process products vary by about \pm0.2$ among clusters of the same [Fe/H] a variation found also among field giants and dwarfs.
A Study on the Current Trend of Unemployment in India: Educated Unemployment
Year: 2019

Job deficient growth is one of the major challenges the country India is facing. Rising unemployment rate creates many super structural problems for India. Its intense nature and drastic consequences has become a serious problem in recent years. At the same time the problem is very extensive; it has attracted wide attention and discussions in the country. Unemployment has many faces but the dimension that has ruptured the economic growth of India is the problem of educated unemployment where educated youth on mass scale are finding it hard to get a job or work. The number of unemployment, especially among educated persons began to increase with alarming rapidity. Today, our country is facing mass unemployment among the educated youth. Many educated people are knocking at the gates of offices just for the posts of Groups C and D and get disappointed by their job profile. Numerous cases of suicide among the unemployed young men have been a phenomenon of our time. The present paper tries to find out current scenario and the major reasons for growth of educated unemployment in India. The paper also provides solutions and measures to be taken in order to eradicate unemployment in India.
Validation of CERES flight model 5 in orbit calibrations using lunar observations
Venue: Remote Sensing
Year: 2019

Scientific studies require radiation fluxes over the Earth to be accurate within 1% for shortwave fluxes and 0.5% for outgoing longwave fluxes. The validation of in orbit instrument performance requires both stability in calibration source and also calibration corrections to compensate for instrument changes. The Moon offers an external source whose signal variance is predictable and non degrading. CERES detectors register the signal output from the entire face of the Moon. Lunar observations performed by CERES Flight Models (FM) 1 through 4 have been successful in assisting validation of radiances to the required accuracy. CERES Flight Model 5 (FM 5) is on Suomi/NPP spacecraft, orbiting since October 2011. This paper uses lunar measurements to validate detector output of FM 5. These measurements are adjusted to remove orbital effects due to variations in distance between Moon and Sun, distance between the satellite and the Moon and lunar phase angle. These effects create a total variation in lunar irradiance of 20% in the total channel and 8% in the shortwave channel. The change in orientation of the Moon as seen by the detector is called libration and causes variations of about 1% of the irradiance. A consistent dataset spanning at least 2 years in length is required to remove variations due to libration. The major uncertainties remaining in the measurements are assumed to be due to changes of the spectral responses of the channels due to degradation of optical surfaces in orbit. The results demonstrate that lunar observations can be used to validate FM 5 measurements.
RE DESAIN SEKOLAH (DASAR) PASCA PANDEMI COVID
Year: 2021

In order for reducing the epidemic Covid 19, government issued policies such as physical distancing, social distancing, and large scale social editing (PSBB) This condition requires people to limit their activities, to stay at home, to study, work, and limit their activities at home. The education sector such as schools need to adjust the learning process gradually, directly into bold learning that can be done in the homes of individual students. This policy has a negative impact due to the implementation of the learning process at home where the learning time limit is not clear. Teachers and students experience various disturbances in the learning process such as limited tools, lack of communication, and readiness to face the online learning process. Which has an impact on children's psychological, decreasing the quality of children's skills to reduce socialization. Post Covid Pandemic Schools is a project designed how schools adapt to this situation. Schools with social distancing protocols in classrooms and their environment, new student centered learning methods, namely student centered learning systems and teachers as their companions. This project is expected to provide a safe and comfortable place to study in the conditions of the Covid 19 pandemic. The school will aim at Education 4.0, namely the school of flexibility and creativity, across fields remotely for learners.  Learning Covid Pandemic; Education 4.0 Social D istancing ABSTRAK Sebagai upaya untuk mengurangi penyebaran virus Covid 19, pemerintah mengeluarkan kebijakan seperti physical distancing, social distancing, hingga pembatasan social berskala besar (PSBB) Kondisi ini mengharuskan masyarakat untuk membatasi aktivitasnya yaitu untuk tetap di rumah, belajar, bekerja, dan beribadah di rumah. Sektor pendidikan seperti sekolah perlu menyesuaikan proses pembelajarannya yaitu dari secara tatap muka langsung menjadi pembelajaran secara daring yang bisa dilakukan di rumah masing masing siswa. Kebijakan ini menimbulkan beberapa dampak negative karena penerapan proses pembelajaran di rumah yang tidak jelasnya batas waktu belajar. Guru dan siswa mengalami berbagai gangguan dalam proses belajar seperti keterbatasan alat, berkurangnya komunikasi, serta kesiapan menghadapi proses pembelajaran online. Yang berdampak pada psikologis anak, menurunnya kualitas keterampilan anak hingga berkurangnya sosialisasi. Sekolah Pasca Pandemi Covid adalah sebuah proyek yang dirancang bagaimana sekolah beradaptasi menghadapi situasi ini. Sekolah yang menjalan protokol social distancing pada kelas dan lingkungannya, metode pembelajaran yang baru student centered learning yaitu sistem pembelajaran yang berpusat kepada murid dan guru sebagai pendampingnya Proyek ini diharapkan bisa menyediakan tempat belajar yang aman dan nyaman disaat kondisi pandemic Covid 19. Sekolah akan kearah Edukasi 4.0 yaitu fleksibilitas dan kretivitas, lintas bidang secara jarak jauh untuk pembelajar sekolah.
Qigong in Three Social Worlds: National Treasure, Social Signifier, or Breathing Exercise?
Year: 2018

Chinese qigong practices provide an interesting case in point of the varying and often incommensurate production of alternative health modalities in the social worlds of practitioners, scholars, and medical scientists. Drawing on publications from each social world, this chapter argues that the term qigong, rather than referring to a set of internally consistent Chinese 'meditation' or 'breathing exercises' may be more usefully understood as a catch all term which belies the cultural nationalist production of such practices during the Chinese qigong movement, emphasises their social and political significance at the expense of their practical value in particular with regard to the vitalistic notion of qi and disregards the methodological issues pertaining to studying a perplexing diversity of practice styles, schools, and traditions.
Model Agnostic Counterfactual Explanations for Consequential Decisions
Venue: AISTATS
Year: 2020

Predictive models are being increasingly used to support consequential decision making at the individual level in contexts such as pretrial bail and loan approval. As a result, there is increasing social and legal pressure to provide explanations that help the affected individuals not only to understand why a prediction was output, but also how to act to obtain a desired outcome. To this end, several works have proposed optimization based methods to generate nearest counterfactual explanations. However, these methods are often restricted to a particular subset of models (e.g. decision trees or linear models) and differentiable distance functions. In contrast, we build on standard theory and tools from formal verification and propose a novel algorithm that solves a sequence of satisfiability problems, where both the distance function (objective) and predictive model (constraints) are represented as logic formulae. As shown by our experiments on real world data, our algorithm is: i) model agnostic {non }linear, {non }differentiable, {non }convex) ii) data type agnostic (heterogeneous features) iii) distance agnostic \ell_0, \ell_1, \ell_\infty$ and combinations thereof) iv) able to generate plausible and diverse counterfactuals for any sample (i.e. 100% coverage) and v) at provably optimal distances.
Halophytes: Potential Resources for Salt Stress Tolerance Genes and Promoters
Venue: Front. Plant Sci.
Year: 2017

Halophytes have demonstrated their capability to thrive under extremely saline conditions and thus considered as one of the best germplasm for saline agriculture. Salinity is a worldwide problem, and the salt affected areas are increasing day by day because of scanty rainfall, poor irrigation system, salt ingression, water contamination, and other environmental factors. The salinity stress tolerance mechanism is a very complex phenomenon, and some pathways are coordinately linked for imparting salinity tolerance. Though a number of salt responsive genes have been reported from the halophytes, there is always a quest for promising stress responsive genes that can modulate plant physiology according to the salt stress. Halophytes such as Aeluropus, Mesembryanthemum, Suaeda, Atriplex, Thellungiella, Cakile, and Salicornia serve as a potential candidate for the salt responsive genes and promoters. Several known genes like antiporters (NHX, SOS, HKT, VTPase) ion channels (Cl Ca2+ aquaporins) antioxidant encoding genes (APX, CAT, GST, BADH, SOD) and some novel genes such as USP, SDR1, SRP etc. were isolated from halophytes and explored for developing stress tolerance in the crop plants (glycophytes) It is evidenced that stress triggers salt sensors that lead to the activation of stress tolerance mechanisms which involve multiple signaling proteins, up or down regulation of several genes, and finally the distinctive or collective effects of stress responsive genes. In this review, halophytes are discussed as an excellent platform for salt responsive genes which can be utilized for developing salinity tolerance in crop plants through genetic engineering.
A Generic Domain Pruning Technique for GDL Based DCOP Algorithms in Cooperative Multi Agent Systems
Venue: AAMAS
Year: 2018

Generalized Distributive Law (GDL) based message passing algorithms, such as Max Sum and Bounded Max Sum, are often used to solve distributed constraint optimization problems in cooperative multi agent systems (MAS) However, scalability becomes a challenge when these algorithms have to deal with constraint functions with high arity or variables with a large domain size. In either case, the ensuing exponential growth of search space can make such algorithms computationally infeasible in practice. To address this issue, we develop a generic domain pruning technique that enables these algorithms to be effectively applied to larger and more complex problems. We theoretically prove that the pruned search space obtained by our approach does not affect the outcome of the algorithms. Moreover, our empirical evaluation illustrates a significant reduction of the search space, ranging from 33% to 81% without affecting the solution quality of the algorithms, compared to the state of the art.

Role of fronts in the formation of Arabian Sea barrier layers during summer monsoon
Venue: Ocean Dynamics
Year: 2014

The barrier layer (BL) a salinity stratification embedded in the upper warm layer is a common feature of the tropical oceans. In the northern Indian Ocean, it has the potential to significantly alter the air sea interactions. In the present paper, we investigate the spatio temporal structure of BL in the Arabian Sea during summer monsoon. This season is indeed a key component of the Asian climate. Based on a comprehensive dataset of Conductivity Temperature Depth (CTD) and Argo in situ hydrographic profiles, we find that a BL exists in the central Arabian Sea during summer. However, it is highly heterogeneous in space, and intermittent, with scales of about ~100 km or less and a couple of weeks. The BL patterns appear to be closely associated to the salinity front separating two water masses (Arabian Sea High Salinity Water in the Northern and Eastern part of the basin, fresher Bay of Bengal Water to the south and to the west) An ocean general circulation model is used to infer the formation mechanism of the BL. It appears that thick (more than 40 m) BL patterns are formed at the salinity front by subduction of the saltier water mass under the fresher one in an area of relatively uniform temperature. Those thick BL events, with variable position and timing, result in a broader envelope of thinner BL in climatological conditions. However, the individual patterns of BL are probably too much short lived to significantly affect the monsoonal air sea interactions.
