Nowadays, online classrooms are growing in popularity. Especially given the Covid-19 outbreak in Indonesia, which has forced online learning. This study aims to investigate online learning in EFL learners’ writing classrooms. This study uses a qualitative method and a descriptive qualitative research design to examine in detail how teachers teach EFL learners in online writing. Researchers collected data through the technique of nonparticipant observation, and the researcher "observes from the sidelines" the action being observed. The results of this study reveal that the observed teacher's teaching method is not consistent with the four reference strategies employed by the researchers. The four strategies include; building knowledge of field, modeling of text, joint construction of text, and independent construction of text. Because, after being observed, the teacher employs only one strategy to teach writing, specifically building knowledge of field.

Trigonal-prismatic coordinated transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are formed from stacked (chalcogen)–(transition metal)–(chalcogen) triple layers, where the chemical bond is covalent within the triple layers and van der Waals (vdW) forces are effective between the layers. Bonding is at the origin of the great interest in these compounds, which are used as 2D materials in applications such as catalysis, electronics, photoelectronics, sensors, batteries and thermoelectricity. This paper addresses the issue of modelling the structural disorder in multilayer TMDCs. The structural model takes into account stacking faults, correlated displacement of atoms and average crystallite size/shape, and is assessed by simulation of the X-ray diffraction pattern and fitting to the experimental data relative to a powdered sample of MoS2 exfoliated and restacked via lithiation. From fitting, an average crystallite size of about 50 Å, nearly spherical crystallites and a definite probability of deviation from the fully eclipsed atomic arrangement present in the ordered structure are determined. The increased interlayer distance and correlated intralayer and interlayer atomic displacement are attributed to the presence of lithium intercalated in the vdW gap between triple layers (Li/Mo molar ratio of about 0.06). The model holds for the whole class of trigonal-prismatic coordinated TMDCs, and is suitably flexible to take into account different preparation routes.

Penderita Diabetes Melitus sangatlah beresiko mengalami luka _ontrol_ yang buruk. Gangguan finansial terjadi akibat biaya perawatan luka yang sangat mahal. Beban finansial membuat banyak penderita DM tidak merawat luka dengan baik sehingga jatuh kepada amputasi bahkan kematian. Program Kemitraan Masyarakat (PKM) dilakukan untuk mendorong kemandirian keluarga penderita DM, target PKM ini menciptakan Family Centred Care yang dimana dapat menghemat sampai dengan 75% pengeluaran biaya perawatan luka dan tentunya mencegah terjadinya amputasi. Keluarga Mitra diberikan pelatihan perawatan luka modern, selain itu keluarga mitra mendapatkan pendampingan selama program. Tim PKM melakukan kunjungan setiap minggu sebagai _ontrol dari perawatan luka. Hasil dari PKM selam selama 2 Bulan (April-Mei) yang melibatkan 10 orang mitra membuat Family Centred Care tercapai, mitra dapat menghemat finansial sampai 75%, pekembangan luka yang sangat baik. Untuk itu, tenaga kesehatan diharapkan dapat memberikan pelatihan dan pendampingan perawatan luka secara modern kepada keluarga penderita DM. Family Centred Care menjadi solusi terbaik mengatasi masalah finasial penderita DM

PurposeBased on the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) theory, this study aims to identify person-contingent antecedents and consequences of proactive strength-oriented behaviors at work. Thus, the authors propose and test a model in which psychological capital (PsyCap), as a personal resource, represents a precursor of strengths use, which in turn is a facilitator of employees' self-rated performance.Design/methodology/approachThe authors tested the hypothesized mediation process through a cross-lagged study with three waves, using data collected from a sample of Romanian employees. The authors analyzed the data through structural equation modeling.FindingsThe results provided support for our model. The data showed significant, positive cross-lagged relationships between PsyCap, strengths use and performance across waves. Also, the authors identified a significant and positive indirect effect between PsyCap at T1 and performance at T3 through increased strengths use at T2.Originality/valueThis research brings new evidence for strengths use's placement as a proactive individual strategy within the JD-R theory. Practical implications are related to career self-management and work from home.

Kahoot! is a game-based learning platform used to review students’ knowledge, for formative assessment or as a break from traditional classroom activities. Play is a social-centred process, able to boost motivation and promote learning across all levels and ages. With the growing push for creativity in the classroom as well as the application of effective technology in teaching and learning. The key of teaching and learning process affects the students’ motivation as well as the learning goals. This study was carried out to describe an analysis of students’ motivation in learning process by using Kahoot! and to describe Kahoot! is effective to motivate students in learning writing process. This research used qualitative method with the observation and questionnaires as the instruments. It involved about three classes of the second grade students of SMPN 1 Sumber. The Sample was VIII A, VIII B, VIII H consist of 100 students. The data was analyzed descriptively. The findings showed that the result of ARCS (Attention, Relevance, Confidence, and Satisfaction) model of motivation defined the students motivated in learning process by using Kahoot! In addition, the result of the questionnaire Kahoot! was effetive to motivate student in learning writing process.

Due to the complexity of oil-in-water emulsions, the existing literature is still missing a mathematical tool that can describe membrane fouling in a fully quantitative manner on the basis of relevant fouling mechanisms.\ud \ud Hypothesis\ud In this work, a quantitative model that successfully describes cake layer formation and pore blocking is presented. We propose that the degree of pore blocking is determined by the membrane contact angle and the resulting surface coverage, while the cake layer is described by a mass balance and a cake erosion flux.\ud \ud Validation\ud The model is validated by comparison to experimental data from previous works (Dickhout et al. 2019; Virga et al., 2020) where membrane type, surfactant type and salinity were varied. Most input parameters could be directly taken from the experimental conditions, while four fitting parameters were required.\ud \ud Findings\ud The experimental data can be well described by the model which was developed to provide insight into the dominant fouling mechanisms. Moreover, where existing models usually assume that pore blocking precedes cake layer formation, here we find that cake layer formation can start and occur while the degree of pore blocking is still increasing, in line with the more dynamic nature of oil droplets filtration. These new conceptual advances in the field of colloid and interface science open up new pathways for membrane fouling understanding, prevention and control.
