Pertobatan Ekologis Dalam Bingkai Filosofi “Sangserekan Bane’” Dan Pandemi Covid 19

Pandemic is a momentum that presents ecological reflection, forcing people to return to basic lessons about life and reflect on reconstructing new relations with the natural environment, which is closely related to the philosophy of "Sangserekan Bane" in the Toraja context. In the writer's perspective, the community needs to get good and correct eco-theological education to help think comprehensively about an ecological dynamic that occurs. This is what the authors then see that it is necessary to get a proper explanation using a qualitative-descriptive historical model approach that aims to create an ecological conversion for society that can help restore the earth's homiostatic status. The result is that through the philosophy of "Sangserekan Bane" it is realized that “lolo tau" (human), “lolo tananan” (plant) and” lolo patuan” (animal) have the same ontological status, because they are created from the same material, namely gold, so that they can help to form a synergy understanding, creation as a narrative narrative of creation in the book of Genesis. Abstrak: Pandemi adalah momentum yang menghadirkan refleksi ekologis, memaksa manusia untuk kembali kepada pelajaran dasar tentang hidup dan berefleksi untuk merekostruksi relasi baru dengan alam sekitar, yang memiliki kaitan erat dengan filosofi “Sangserekan Bane’” pada konteks Toraja. Dalam perspektif penulis masyarakat perlu mendapatkan pendidikan eko-teologi yang baik dan benar untuk membantu berfikir secara komprehensif akan sebuah dinamika ekologis yang terjadi. Hal inilah yang kemudian penulis lihat perlu mendapatkan penjelasan yang tepat dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif-deskriptif model historis yang bertujuan menciptakan pertobatan ekologis bagi masyarakat yang dapat membantu mengembalikan status homiostatik bumi. Hasilnya ialah melalui filosofi “Sangserekan Bane’” disadari bahwa “lolo tau” (manusia), “lolo tananan” (tumbuhan) dan “lolo patuan” (hewan) memiliki status ontologis yang sama, sebab diciptakan dari bahan yang sama yakni emas, sehingga dapat membantu untuk membentuk sebuah sinergitas pemahaman antar ciptaan sebagaiaman narasi penciptaan dalam kitab Kejadian.

Research on the Assessment System Construction of EAP Writing Skill from an Eco-linguistic Perspective

This paper comes up with an assessment system of EAP writing development from an Eco-linguistic perspective based on a literature review of English writing construction and assessment of writing skills development under an ecological dynamic model. The paper clarifies that the writing construction in academic contexts consists of genre and rhetorical knowledge, process, strategy knowledge，and academic discourse community knowledge. The paper elucidates that the ecological dynamic assessment of EAP writing skills, as just being conducted at Tianjin Polytechnic University, has been proved to be workable in establishing bio-ecological links between the classroom learning contexts and the broader educational contexts at university. In the research, the individualized and comprehensive employment of assessment tools such as textual analysis，one-on-one interviews，case study and writing portfolios helps achieve dynamic assessment and facilitate ecological transfer of EAP writing competence.

Dynamics of Anthropogenic Desertification of the European Desert on the Example of Russian Precaspian Region

This article represents the results of multi-annual researches of desertification processes in droughty part of Europe - Russian Caspian Basin. Authors consider desertification as unification which leads to degradation of all components of arid ecosystems. It has been determined, that ecological-dynamic series of vegetational communities have the largest indicative value on quaternary terraces of Caspian Basin. They allow to trace the degradation sequence, to allocate the evaluation criteria and stages of desertification. Modern region vegetation is a result of cattle pasture and water management. It has been established that the vegetation of Late Khvalynian terrace on loamy soils is the most resistant to processes of degradation. The most vulnerable is young New Caspian. Cartographic materials confirm convertibility of desertification processes in semi-arid zone of European continent in response to natural-anthropogenic factors.
