This study aims to identify the characterization of the two main characters in Trolls and how the film portrays the meaning of happiness through its scenes. The process of analyzing characterization is done using direct and indirect characterization along with non-verbal channels of expressions. While to analyze the meaning of happiness, the PERMA model and the theory of acculturation are employed. This is a descriptive qualitative study with the writer herself as the instrument. Based on the analysis, Poppy is optimistic, brave, fair, sincere, warm-hearted, cheerful, trustworthy, and confident. Branch is normative, boring, overly-cautious, and detached. These two characters have different perspective on life, but by the end of the film, they succeed in uniting their mind. Based on the characterization analysis, meaning of happiness can be drawn in two distinct classifications, personal and social happiness. Personal happiness is achieved by fulfilling the five elements of PERMA while social happiness refers to the relationship between trolls and bergens. For them, happiness can be achieved without cutting throat, by being frank, by increasing tolerance, and by helping each other.

Speaking in a foreign language requires competence in the language skills itself and mindfulness so that the content of the speech is easier to reach and by the interlocutor. To understand the relationship between skillful and thoughtful in speaking English, we conducted a series of data collection with the help of an electronic engine based on Google Scholar data. We target these data in several international journal publications that discuss these two variables. After the data has been collected, it is then analyzed by involving a coding system and in-depth evaluation under a descriptive qualitative study. Before drawing data conclusions, we ensure that the data results meet reasonable and reliable standards. Based on the discussion of the findings, we can conclude that speaking in English as a foreign language requires skillful and thoughtful competence so that the interlocutor can easily understand the contents of the conversation. Thus, this finding should be a meaningful input for many parties in learning English.

Abstract: The ways students solve problems become one of the main target of physics learning. Investigation about how students solve problems is explored in the context of metacognition skills.  The steps of metacognition skills in physics problem solving include: planning, monitoring, evaluation, and controlling. This is a preliminary exploration study that aims to: 1.) mapping the metacognition skills that are used in physics problem solving of temperature and heat, 2.)  exhibiting students’ self evaluation of his/her metacognition skills in problem solving, and 3.) identifying the relationship between students answer and their self evaluation. This is a descriptive qualitative study. The data were obtained by test and questionnaire. The physics problem solving test was given to 35 students of 11th grader. After doing test, they filled the 22 items of questionnaire adapted from Physics Metacognition Inventory (PMI). The result shows that none of the students solved all the problems optimally. The result of questionnaire showed that the average of metacognitive skills 64%, with the maximum and the minimum scores is 87% and 35% respectively. The correlation between the analyses of students’ answer and their self evaluation shows a negative value that indicates no relationship. Specifically, students pass the planning and controlling phase quite well, even though they tend to be poor in monitoring and evaluation. This findings must become a particular attention for the researchers and teachers in providing the learning strategy to habit the phases of metacognition skills in order to improve students’ metacognitive skills.   Abstrak: Cara siswa dalam menyelesaikan masalah menjadi salah satu sasaran utama dalam pembelajaran fisika. Penelusuran mengenai bagaimana cara siswa menyelesaikan masalah dieksplorasi dalam konteks keterampilan metakognisi. Tahapan keterampilan metakognisi dalam menyelesaikan masalah fisika meliputi: planning, monitoring, evaluation, dan controlling. Penelitian ini merupakan studi eksplorasi awal bertujuan untuk: 1.) memetakan keterampilan metakognisi yang digunakan siswa dalam menyelesaikan masalah fisika pada materi Suhu dan Kalor, 2.) menunjukkan penilaian diri siswa terhadap keterampilan metakognisi yang dimiliki dalam menyelesaikan masalah, dan 3.) mengidentifikasi hubungan antara analisis jawaban siswa dan penilaian diri. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif kualitatif. Data penelitian diperoleh melalui tes dan angket. Tes yang digunakan merupakan soal problem solving, yang diberikan kepada 35 siswa kelas XI. Setelah mengerjakan soal, siswa mengisi angket yang terdiri dari 22 item yang diadaptasi dari Physics Metacognition Inventory (PMI). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan belum ada siswa yang optimal menyelesaikan seluruh soal. Angket penilaian diri menunjukkan skor rerata 64%, dengan skor maksimum dan minimum masing-masing 87% dan 35%. Hubungan antara analisis jawaban siswa dan hasil penilaian diri menunjukkan nilai korelasi negatif yang mengindikasikan tidak sinkronnya hasil jawaban dan penilaian diri siswa. Secara spesifik, tahapan planning dan controlling dilakukan siswa dengan cukup baik, akan tetapi siswa cenderung lemah dalam memonitoring dan mengevaluasi ketika menyelesaikan masalah. Temuan ini menjadikan perhatian khusus untuk peneliti dan guru dalam menyajikan strategi belajar untuk membiasakan tahapan dalam keterampilan metakognisi dengan target peningkatan keterampilan metakognisi siswa.

Insight Into

Echinodermata is a phylum of marine invertebrates which has been extant since Cambrian time (c.a. 500 m.y. before the present). Modern examples of echinoderms include sea urchins, sea stars, and sea lilies (crinoids). The endoskeletons of echinoderms are composed of plates or ossicles (Fig. 1) which are with few exceptions, porous, single crystals of high-magnesian calcite. Despite their single crystal nature, fracture surfaces do not exhibit the near-perfect {10.4} cleavage characteristic of inorganic calcite. This paradoxical mix of biogenic and inorganic features has prompted much recent work on echinoderm skeletal crystallography. Furthermore, fossil echinoderm hard parts comprise a volumetrically significant portion of some marine limestones sequences. The ultrastructural and microchemical characterization of modern skeletal material should lend insight into: 1). The nature of the biogenic processes involved, for example, the relationship of Mg heterogeneity to morphological and structural features in modern echinoderm material, and 2). The nature of the diagenetic changes undergone by their ancient, fossilized counterparts. In this study, high resolution TEM (HRTEM), high voltage TEM (HVTEM), and STEM microanalysis are used to characterize tha ultrastructural and microchemical composition of skeletal elements of the modern crinoid Neocrinus blakei.

Lower Contact

Considerable amount of work has been done in studying the relationship between the contact resistance and the microstructure of the Au-Ge-Ni based ohmic contacts to n-GaAs. It has been found that the lower contact resistivity is due to the presence of Ge rich and Au free regions (good contact area) in contact with GaAs. Thus in order to obtain an ohmic contact with lower contact resistance one should obtain a uniformly alloyed region of good contact areas almost everywhere. This can possibly be accomplished by utilizing various alloying schemes. In this work microstructural characterization, employing TEM techniques, of the sequentially deposited Au-Ge-Ni based ohmic contact to the MODFET device is presented.The substrate used in the present work consists of 1 μm thick buffer layer of GaAs grown on a semi-insulating GaAs substrate followed by a 25 Å spacer layer of undoped AlGaAs.

This paper explores the relationship between education and labour market positioning in The Hague, a Dutch city with a unique labour market. One of the main minority groups, Turkish-Dutch, is the focus in this qualitative study on higher educated minorities and their labour market success. Interviews reveal that the obstacles the respondents face are linked to discrimination and network limitation. The respondents perceive “personal characteristics” as the most important tool to overcoming the obstacles. Education does not only increase their professional skills, but also widens their networks. The Dutch education system facilitates the chances of minorities in higher education through the “layering” of degrees.

The objective of the work is to establish the characterization of the auditory disability and its relationship with resilience at the Technical University of Manabí. The article shows a conceptual analysis related to the inclusion and social integration of disabled students. Based on the fact that the person with disabilities grows and develops in the same way as that of people without disabilities and what usually happens is that disabled people are rejected and discriminated against based on a prefabricated and erroneous conceptualization of these people. The results associated with the application of the SV-RES test prepared by the researchers are shown (Saavedra & Villalta, 2008b). Characterization of the auditory deficit is made in the students, and the limitations that derive from it are pointed out. We analyze the particularities related to communication with students who have a hearing disability and resilience in this type of student, where some personal highlights that in this sense constitute an example of resilience. Finally, the results related to the study of the relationship between students' hearing disability and the level of resilience dimensions are shown.
