Con: The FMS 2000 Blood/Fluid Warmer Is Not Better than the Level 1 H1025

The influence of the COVID-19 pandemic on human-pet interactions within New Zealand, particularly during lockdown, was investigated via two national surveys. In Survey 1, pet owners (n = 686) responded during the final week of the five-week Alert Level 4 lockdown (highest level of restrictions—April 2020), and survey 2 involved 498 respondents during July 2020 whilst at Alert Level 1 (lowest level of restrictions). During the lockdown, 54.7% of owners felt that their pets’ wellbeing was better than usual, while only 7.4% felt that it was worse. Most respondents (84.0%) could list at least one benefit of lockdown for their pets, and they noted pets were engaged with more play (61.7%) and exercise (49.7%) than pre-lockdown. Many respondents (40.3%) expressed that they were concerned about their pet’s wellbeing after lockdown, with pets missing company/attention and separation anxiety being major themes. In Survey 2, 27.9% of respondents reported that they continued to engage in increased rates of play with their pets after lockdown, however, the higher levels of pet exercise were not maintained. Just over one-third (35.9%) of owners took steps to prepare their pets to transition out of lockdown. The results indicate that pets may have enjoyed improved welfare during lockdown due to the possibility of increased human-pet interaction. The steps taken by owners to prepare animals for a return to normal life may enhance pet wellbeing long-term if maintained.

Abstract. The objective of this paper is to assess the performance of methods that predict low flows and flood runoff in ungauged catchments. The aim is to learn from the similarities and differences between catchments in different places, and to interpret the differences in performance in terms of the underlying climate-landscape controls. The assessment is performed at two levels. The Level 1 assessment is a meta-analysis of 14 low flow prediction studies reported in the literature involving 3112 catchments, and 20 flood prediction studies involving 3023 catchments. The Level 2 assessment consists of a more focused and detailed analysis of individual basins from selected studies from Level 1 in terms of how the leave-one-out cross-validation performance depends on climate and catchment characteristics as well as on the regionalisation method. The results indicate that both flood and low flow predictions in ungauged catchments tend to be less accurate in arid than in humid climates and more accurate in large than in small catchments. There is also a tendency towards a somewhat lower performance of regressions than other methods in those studies that apply different methods in the same region, while geostatistical methods tend to perform better than other methods. Of the various flood regionalisation approaches, index methods show significantly lower performance in arid catchments than regression methods or geostatistical methods. For low flow regionalisation, regional regressions are generally better than global regressions.

The aim of this research was to develop a teaching and learning module using Van Hiele theories for quadrilateral topics in grade VII students in middle school, which is valid, practical, and effective. Literatures explain that nowadays the students over generalize the concept of geometry without further understanding about the concept of geometry and the skills of proving and reasoning that geometry field try to improved. The method used was research and development with modification of Borg and Gall and Plump method. The initial investigation stage result stated that only 22.6% of students reached level 2 informal deduction, 35.5% students reached level 1 analysis and the rest of students were still in level 0 visualization. In order to solve this problem, the design and realization stages developed a module which was written based on phase of learning geometry. Next, the module was verified through trial test in a class of students grade VII in order to get data of validity and effectivity. Lastly, the module was tested through experimental research by comparing experimental and control class. The module was valid based on validator review. The module was effective because it can increase students geometry thinking level by 48%. The nonparametric test using K-S and Man Whitney show that the result of level of geometry thinking in experimental class was better than the control class. Overall result state that the module valid and effective.

The objective of the study was: “to find out whether there is any effect of using scramble paragraph method on students’ ability in writing procedure text of the eigth grade studnet of SMP Negeri 2 Satu Atap Batang Serangan in academic year 2019/2020”. This research was conducted at SMP Negeri 2 Satu Atap Jl. Batang Serangan-Kwala Sawit Kecamatan Batang Serangan Kabupaten Langkat. The population of this study was the whole students of eigth Year Students of SMP Negeri 2 Satu Atap Batang Serangan that consist of four class, namely VIII. With the total number of the students were 132 students. Where students of class VIII-2 totaling 32 people as an experimental class and class VIII-4 totaling 32 people as a control group. In this research method was the type of experimental research which is one type of research which aims to provide an overview of the influence of variables x and y variables. The average pretest control class was 56 and the posttest control group rose to 66. While the experimental class average value obtained for 64.7 pretest and posttest riding on the outcome of 76. This shows that the experimental class was better than the control class. Overall the data comes from a normal population and the entire data homogeneous manifold. Of the survey results revealed that to= 12.1 t criticism at 5% level obtained 1.69 and at level 1% obtained t = 1.31 then 1.31 <12.1> 1.69, then the hypothesis of significant meaning hypothesis proved to be true, namely "There is significant affect of using scramble paragraph method on students ability in writing procedure text of the eigth grade studnet of SMP Negeri 2 Satu Atap Batang Serangan in academic year 2019/2020”.

This article reports on a study of the knowledge of the Level 1 and Level 2 rules of perspective taking by three groups of 8-year-old children with three visual conditions. Although all groups of children had knowledge of the Level 1 rules, their knowledge of the Level 2 rules was affected by their vision. Thus, the sighted children performed better than the children with low vision, and the children with low vision performed better than those who were congenitally blind.
