Solution Focused

For many teachers working at school means solving problems of a various nature. These problems are often associated with teaching difficulties, and even more often with educational issues caused by students. When focussing on problems, teachers experience a sense of work overload, disappointment and stress, or a sense of helplessness and lack of empowerment. The paper presents an alternative, novel approach to teacher’s work. Instead of an in depth examination of problems, the solution-focussed approach redirects the teacher’s greater attention to searching for exceptions from existing problems and developing aspects which enable students to function effectively at school, to student’s achievements and resources. The article presents the theoretical assumptions of solution-based education and its possible use by the teacher in work with the student and the whole class.

Abstract Tutoring is not only theoretical assumptions, but also the practical dimension of the relationship between the tutor and the student. The final result depends on the quality of this process, if a student who not only possessed knowledge but also took over the tutor’s attitude towards many issues, including the way of life. The study will show reflections on the practical use of the tutorial with general conclusions resulting from the tutorial educational work.

<p>Jono Temayang Bojonegoro Village is known as a cultural tourism village. On January 20-February 19, 2016, 21 students of UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya and a lecturer supervising the community in Jono Temayang Bojonegoro village in Real Work Participatory Action Research (KKN PAR). KKN PAR is implemented to optimize the empowerment of the community of cultural tourism village Jono Temayang Bojonegoro. Based on the results of mapping and transect, it is known that Jono village has tremendous potential to be developed from agriculture, animal husbandry, culture, religion and education. Among the problems faced by the Jono community are environmental, religious and educational issues. Based on the existing problems, then the action of the team accompanying the community is to establish a garbage bank, planting a toga plant, holding a "ngaji together", and private lessons.</p><p> </p><p>Desa Jono Temayang Bojonegoro dikenal sebagai desa wisata budaya.Pada 20 Januari-19 Februari 2016, 21 mahasiswa UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya dan satu dosen pembimbing melakukan pengabdian masyarakat di desa Jono Temayang Bojonegoro dalam kegiatan Kuliah Kerja Nyata <em>Participatory Action Research</em> (KKN PAR).

Real World Datasets

Recently, rapid growth of social networks and online news resources from Internet have made text stream clustering become an insufficient application in multiple domains (e.g.: text retrieval diversification, social event detection, text summarization, etc.) Different from traditional static text clustering approach, text stream clustering task has specific key challenges related to the rapid change of topics/clusters and high-velocity of coming streaming document batches. Recent well-known model-based text stream clustering models, such as: DTM, DCT, MStream, etc. are considered as word-independent evaluation approach which means largely ignoring the relations between words while sampling clusters/topics. It definitely leads to the decrease of overall model accuracy performance, especially for short-length text documents such as comments, microblogs, etc. in social networks. To tackle these existing problems, in this paper we propose a novel approach of graph-of-words (GOWs) based text stream clustering, called GOW-Stream. The application of common GOWs which are generated from each document batch while sampling clusters/topics can support to overcome the word-independent evaluation challenge. Our proposed GOW-Stream is promising to significantly achieve better text stream clustering performance than recent state-of-the-art baselines. Extensive experiments on multiple benchmark real-world datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed model in both accuracy and time-consuming performances.

Constructivist Model

The practice of social work at school existed in the Republic of Slovenia in the past (the period of the SFRY). This paper presents the findings arising from that period, the reasons for abandoning that practice (the problems of management and the achieved educational level of the social workers at that time), as well as the theoretical assumptions forming the basis for reconsidering the possibility of its reintroduction both to primary and secondary schools. This paper presents the different theoretical models and paradigms they rely on (traditional or conservative, reformist, radical, system-ecological and social-constructivist), with special reference to the social-constructivist model of social work, which is also author's own orientation. The suggested models and theoretical assumptions that social work rests on are associated with the domains of work common to social work and school, and those are: on micro-level, the realm of socialization (socialization process) and educational work related to pupils (common both to school work and social work), on the level of school - work on establishing the psycho-social climate, especially within peer groups, youth subcultures, the relation towards authority, the presence of violence and offender's behavior at school. Also, significant common ground in the paper stems from the concept of decentralization, on the one hand, and the fact that school is an institution that develops numerous functions through meaningful connections with the context of the local community and the society.

Electron Microscopes

The era of atomic-resolution electron microscopy has finally arrived. In virtually all inorganic materials, including oxides, metals, semiconductors and ceramics, it is possible to image individual atomic columns in low-index zone-axis projections. A whole host of important materials’ problems involving defects and departures from nonstoichiometry on the atomic scale are waiting to be tackled by the new generation of intermediate voltage (300-400keV) electron microscopes. In this review, some existing problems and limitations associated with imaging inorganic materials are briefly discussed. The more immediate problems encountered with organic and biological materials are considered elsewhere.Microscope resolution. It is less than a decade since the state-of-the-art, commercially available TEM was a 200kV instrument with a spherical aberration coefficient of 1.2mm, and an interpretable resolution limit (ie. first zero crossover of the contrast transfer function) of 2.5A.

Copper-dependent ATP7B up-regulation drives the resistance of TMEM16A-overexpressing head-and-neck cancer models to platinum toxicity

Cancer Models

Platinum-containing drugs such as cisplatin and carboplatin are routinely used for the treatment of many solid tumors including squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN). However, SCCHN resistance to platinum compounds is well documented. The resistance to platinum has been linked to the activity of divalent transporter ATP7B, which pumps platinum from the cytoplasm into lysosomes, decreasing its concentration in the cytoplasm. Several cancer models show increased expression of ATP7B; however, the reason for such an increase is not known. Here we show a strong positive correlation between mRNA levels of TMEM16A and ATP7B in human SCCHN tumors. TMEM16A overexpression and depletion in SCCHN cell lines caused parallel changes in the ATP7B mRNA levels. The ATP7B increase in TMEM16A-overexpressing cells was reversed by suppression of NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2), by the antioxidant N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC) and by copper chelation using cuprizone and bathocuproine sulphonate (BCS). Pretreatment with either chelator significantly increased cisplatin's sensitivity, particularly in the context of TMEM16A overexpression. We propose that increased oxidative stress in TMEM16A-overexpressing cells liberates the chelated copper in the cytoplasm, leading to the transcriptional activation of ATP7B expression. This, in turn, decreases the efficacy of platinum compounds by promoting their vesicular sequestration. We think that such a new explanation of the mechanism of SCCHN tumors’ platinum resistance identifies novel approach to treating these tumors.
