The paper presents the application of Integrated eLearning, presented in general terms at this conference [1], exemplified on one of the most important parts of Physics the thematic block “Oscillations“. The goal of the course of Physics in the chapter of Oscillations is to show the oscillatory movement as a basis of nearly all natural phenomena. The unifying model for all real world systems th...

The adoption of electronic textbooks in universities by the majority of students has yet to materialize, requiring a better understanding of the differences among individual users to customize its design and support. The main focus of this study is to examine the role of technology savvy in terms of the experiences, skills and self-efficacy of students in using information technologies. It is h...

Cells in a developing animal embryo become specified by the activation of cell-type-specific gene regulatory networks. The network that specifies gut nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has been subject study for more than two decades. In this network, maternal factors SKN-1/Nrf and POP-1/TCF activate zygotic GATA factor cascade consisting regulators MED-1,2 → END-1,3 ELT-2,7, leading to specificat...

Ground-conjugate wide eld AO is presented and preliminary performance results are given, which show that signi cant seeing improvement can be achieved over 10-20 arcmin eld of view. A proposal for an ELT AO system is sketched.

Comparative analysis between Caenorhabditis elegans and other nematode species offers a powerful approach to study gene function. C. elegans also has great potential as a surrogate expression system to study the function of genes from parasitic nematode species where transgenic methodologies are unavailable. However there is little information on the extent to which the biology of C. elegans is...

English as a lingua franca (ELF) research highlights the complexity and fluidity of culture in intercultural communication through English. ELF users draw on, construct, and move between global, national, and local orientations towards cultural characterisations. Thus, the relationship between language and culture is best approached as situated and emergent. However, this has chal­ lenged previ...

This study set out to check the addressing behavior within men’s and women’s talk in the written conversations in English language textbook series titled ‘New Interchange book’ by Richards, Hull and Proctor, (1998) from Cambridge University Press. In line with this aim, the present researchers initially prepared descriptive tables for both formal and informal contexts in three theme categories ...

The importance of digital literacy has grown significantly, making its integration into English language teaching (ELT) crucial. This study investigated the role ELT in promoting among students at Muhammadiyah University Mataram and identified their needs. Using a mixed-methods research design, data were collected from students’ need through questionnaires interviews, which assessed skills, tec...

BACKGROUND Appropriate diagnostic testing involves considerations of cost-effectiveness. We examined the cost-effectiveness of individual tests in a panel of tests defined by the Japan Society of Clinical Pathology. METHODS We studied 540 new, symptomatic primary care outpatients with a set of 30 common diagnostic tests [the Essential Laboratory Tests (2); ELT(2) panel] for clinical evaluatio...

BACKGROUND Blood loss and uncontrollable bleeding are major factors affecting survival in trauma patients. Because treatment with antifibrinolytic drugs may be effective, early detection of hyperfibrinolysis with rotation thrombelastography (ROTEM may be beneficial. METHODS Eighty-seven trauma patients were included in this prospective observational study. Blood samples were collected at admi...
