What does it mean to take a photographic, imaginary, or fictional journey to some destination? How does indirect observation of the object differ from direct observation? What are they like, the immediate and the mediated Turku? Which of them is more real or more authentic? Turku is Finland’s most poetic city. It is also the most European of our cities. As the flâneur saunters along the banks of the River Aura, he traverses several centuries. The murmur of yesteryear is to be heard in the old buildings and in the foliage of the time-honoured trees. Here is the cradle, the first home of Finnish civilization. The philosopher-poet is able to see into the essence of a city: he has the patience to linger and listen to the humming resonance of the ages. The tourist cannot do that. What is needed is a traveller who makes sufficiently profound and discerning observations. It is in his existential looking glass that the many faces of Turku are reflected.

Elliptically Polarized

This paper resumes our study of the reversing spiral structure found in the cell wall of cotton hairs, and presents typical samples of the many thousands of measurements which we have made during the past three years in an attempt to interpret their significance by statistical methods. These measurements were made under the microscope by the use of elliptically polarized light, with eye-piece graticules and mechanical stage, the colour change being checked by direct observation of the structure whenever any doubt existed. It is not advisable to draw rigid conclusions as to the causation of the spiral reversals from the data here presented, because such conclusions would be pure inference, unsupported by direct observation. We have tried to grow cotton hairs in vitro , outside the boll, for such observation, but have failed so far. The data are therefore given as a record of facts, with no more speculation as to their meaning than is needed to make them cohere. We feel sure that their significance transcends the limits of the genus Gossypium , and that statistical study of the data, such as is beyond our competence, would give much information about the detailed mechanism of one part of the growth process.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menelaah salah satu aspek kemampuan mengajar dikenal sebagai Classroom Mathematical Questioning Skill (CMQS) mahasiswa praktikan pada mata kuliah Micro Teaching semester genap tahun 2018 di Program Studi Pendidikan Matematika, FKIP Universitas Maritim Raja Ali Haji. Penelitian dengan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif ini menggunakan observasi langsung sebagai teknik pengumpulan data pada aspek keterampilan mengajar. Untuk dapat mengukur CMQS sebagai satu dari banyak aspek keterampilan mengajar yang diteliti, digunakan teknik penilaian dengan lembar penilaian yang diisi pakar setelah melakukan observasi langsung. Data mentah dari lembar penilaian keterampilan mengajar diolah menggunakan analisis model RASCH pada aspek item measure, dan person-map item. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa CMQS merupakan aspek mengajar tersulit bagi mahasiswa praktikan dengan item measure bernilai logit 2,52. Hanya 14,5% praktikan yang mampu menunjukkan kemampuan memuaskan dalam CMQS. Selanjutnya hasil analisis dan observasi langsung dijadikan landasan dalam mendeskripsikan CMQS mahasiswa praktikan. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa mahasiswa praktikan memiliki keterbatasan dalam memberikan pertanyaan bertipe high level dan sangat kurang sekali memberikan ruang bagi siswa untuk menjelaskan dan mengelaborasi secara mendalam jawaban atas pertanyaan yang diberikan praktikan. Kata kunci: CMQS, RASCH, analisis Abstract: This study aims to examine one aspect of teaching ability known as Classroom Mathematical Questioning Skills (CMQS) of practicing students on the Micro Teaching course on even semester of year 2018 in the Mathematics Education Study Program, FKIP, Universitas Maritim Raja Ali Haji. Research with a descriptive qualitative approach used direct observation as a data collection technique on aspects of teaching skills. To be able to measure CMQS as one of the many aspects of teaching skills studied, an assessment technique was used with an assessment sheet that was filled in by experts after direct observation. The raw data from the teaching skills assessment sheet was processed using the RASCH model analysis on the item measure and person-map items. The analysis showed that CMQS is the most difficult aspect of teaching for practicing students with 2.52 logit measure items. Only 14.5% of the students were able to demonstrate satisfying abilities in CMQS. Furthermore, the results of the analysis and direct observation were used as a basis in describing the students practice CMQS. This study showed that practicing students have limitations in giving high level type questions and gave very little space for students to explain and elaborate in depth the answers to questions given by the practicing students themselves.. Keywords: CMQS, RASCH, analysis

This study aims to determine the effect of problem based instruction learning model with ethnoscience science approach to students' generic science skills on stoichiometric material. This research is a quasi-experimental method with times series design. Determination of the sample using purposive sampling technique. Data collection techniques were carried out by measuring question instruments, observations, and open interviews. The pretest and posttest implementation in this study was conducted four times. There are five aspects of generic science skills measured in this study, namely aspects of concept building, mathematical modeling, symbolic language, direct observation, and indirect observation. The results of the study obtained N-Gain values for each different aspect. N-Gain conceptual aspects of 0.776 (height), mathematical modeling aspects of 0.625 (medium), symbolic language assumptions of 0.607 (moderate), direct observation aspects of 0.725 (high), and indirect observation aspects of 0.604 (medium). To test the hypothesis, non-parametric t-test is used because the data obtained is not normal. Based on the t test that has been done, it is obtained the data of sig 2 tailed value of 0,00 where 0,00 <0,05, meaning that there is a significant effect on the use of problem based instruction learning model with ethnoscience approach towards students' generic science skills in stoichiometric material. This model is also effective in improving students' genetic skills in stoichiometry material seen from the high number of effect sizes, namely on the aspect of building with effect size of 98%, mathematical modeling by 96%, symbolic language by 96%, direct observation by 98%, and indirect observation of 92%. Individual mastery obtained is 71.32 (complete), while the classical completeness obtained is equal to 55.70% (incomplete).

Measuring beahaviour has already been a debated issue. The aim of this paper is to compare direct observations and observations by videotapes in three different Italian chicken breeds (Valdarnese Bianca, Bionda Piemontese, Robusta Maculata), in order to provide indications about the most suitable method in behavioural studies. The three breeds were reared in an experimental poultry house (10 birds=m2, standard intensive broiler production density). Fifty birds/breeds (sex ratio 1:1) were housed in litter floor pens and fed the same diet (ME 11.8MJ=Kg, CP 18%). The comparison between direct and indirect observation showed significant differences for almost each behavioural category. Activity and resting behaviour were generally well visible in both types of observations while feeding and mainly interaction were better identified with the direct observation.

Pioneering biblical critic, theorist of democracy, and legendary conflater of God and nature, Jewish philosopher Baruch Spinoza (1632–1677) was excommunicated by the Sephardic Jews of Amsterdam in 1656 for his “horrible heresies” and “monstrous deeds.” Yet, over the past three centuries, Spinoza's rupture with traditional Jewish beliefs and practices has elevated him to a prominent place in genealogies of Jewish modernity. This book provides a riveting look at how Spinoza went from being one of Judaism's most notorious outcasts to one of its most celebrated, if still highly controversial, cultural icons, and a powerful and protean symbol of the first modern secular Jew. Ranging from Amsterdam to Palestine and back again to Europe, the book chronicles Spinoza's posthumous odyssey from marginalized heretic to hero, the exemplar of a whole host of Jewish identities, including cosmopolitan, nationalist, reformist, and rejectionist. The book shows that in fashioning Spinoza into “the first modern Jew,” generations of Jewish intellectuals—German liberals, East European maskilim, secular Zionists, and Yiddishists—have projected their own dilemmas of identity onto him, reshaping the Amsterdam thinker in their own image. The many afterlives of Spinoza are a kind of looking glass into the struggles of Jewish writers over where to draw the boundaries of Jewishness and whether a secular Jewish identity is indeed possible. Cumulatively, these afterlives offer a kaleidoscopic view of modern Jewish culture and a vivid history of an obsession with Spinoza that continues to this day.

Recent observations of molecular positronium (Ps2) were based on a correlation between changes in positronium (Ps) lifetime spectra associated with the density of an incident positron beam and the population of a positronium (or positron) surface state. While the evidence for molecule formation is compelling it is nevertheless an indirect observation, and has not provided any information about the properties of Ps2 beyond its likely creation. Here we discuss the prospects for a direct observation via laser spectroscopy of a predicted 1S2P excited molecular state. Such a measurement would provide a direct and unambiguous signal of Ps2 formation and would also allow us to determine some properties of the molecule, namely the lifetime of the excited state and the 1S1S-1S2P energy interval.

Bullying among students, especially high school students are still common. Acts of violence in schools involve both senior and junior. The seniors’ role of displaying seniority is to teach the juniors manners and discipline. But there are many seniors who abuse the terms of seniority by acting arbitrarily to their juniors. This article will explain how bullying can be considered as a field of power contestation. This study uses several techniques of ethnographic methods, namely, direct observation, interview, and literature. Researchers used indirect observation because informants are reluctant to commit acts of violence when there are other people outside their group. Based on the results of the research, capital are at stake for the actors to reach the prize, such as honor, fame, and material. Bullying behavior that occurs in SMA E Jakarta continues because of an understanding that they have to continue what has been instilled by their seniors before, such as the rules for class X are always imposed from year to the next one.
