Potensi lokal Kabupaten Hulu Sungai Selatan dapat dijadikan  sumber belajar, dan sebagai bahan ajar Biologi sehingga pembelajaran kontekstual menjadi lebih bermakna. Keterbatasan bahan ajar berbasis potensi lokal dan pengetahuan guru yang tergabung dalam MGMP IPA-Biologi se Kabupaten Hulu Sungai Selatan dalam membuatan bahan ajar perlu mendapatkan bimbingan. Tujuan kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini adalah untuk memberi bekal dan bimbingan kepada guru-guru IPA-Biologi dalam mengembangkan bahan ajar berbasis potensi lokal. Pelaksanaan kegiatan Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat ini  menggunakan metode ceramah, diskusi, workshop dan konsultasi secara daring, yang diikuti oleh sebanyak 38 orang. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan bahwa para guru sangat antusias mengikuti kegiatan ini, terlihat dari diskusi dan tanya jawab yang berlangsung sangat dinamis. Banyak peserta yang mengemukakan potensi lokal daerah mereka, dan meminta saran tentang bahan ajar apa yang harus dan baik mereka kembangkan. Berdasarkan data akhir terdapat lebih dari setengah total peserta yaitu 22 orang guru dari 38 orang (58%) yang format pengembangan bahan ajar Biologi, dan masih terus bertambah. Hal ini menunjukkan guru IPA-Biologi mempunyai motivasi yang cukup tinggi untuk membuat bahan ajar Biologi berbasis potensi lokal. The local potential of Hulu Sungai Selatan Regency can be used as a learning resource and as biology teaching material so that contextual learning becomes more meaningful. The limitations of teaching materials based on local potential and the knowledge of teachers who are members of the IPA-Biology MGMP in Hulu Sungai Selatan District in making teaching materials need guidance. This community service activity aims to provide provisions and guidance to Science-Biology teachers in developing teaching materials based on local potential. The implementation of this Community Service activity used lectures, discussions, workshops and online consultations, which 38 people attended. The activity results showed that the teachers were very enthusiastic about participating in this activity; it was seen from the dynamic discussion and question and answer process. Many participants raised the local potential of their area and asked for suggestions on what teaching materials they should and should develop well. Based on the final data, more than half of the total participants, namely 22 teachers out of 38 people (58%), have the format for developing Biology teaching materials, and it is still growing. This shows that Science-Biology teachers have high enough motivation to make Biology teaching materials based on local potential.

This is a conceptual article in which we try to connect some of our previous publications into a coherent new model of learner identity. The first phase of our research concerns the research and theories about professional and work-related learning, followed by work on the learning landscape: a metaphor for organizational learning. The third phase looks at added learning preferences: five ways of work-related learning. Phase four introduces the concept of the learning professional, and phase five looks at research and theories about professional identity: what inalienably connects: who you are (person), the work you do (profession) and the context in which you shape it. In the discussion, we try to explain how the various models can be connected, differentiated and integrated. Professional identity is the basis for all the other approaches. In an integrated set of questions, we bring it all together, introducing the new concept of learner identity and focusing on consequences for facilitating a professional learning culture.

The subject contemporary relevance of Nehru is unfolded into five sections. First section introduces the subject by contextualising Nehru’s ideas in the contemporary scenario. Nehruvian ideological system and its utility in the age of globalisation constitute the body of this article. His nationalism, socialism and world view are located and discussed in the second, third and fourth sections, respectively. Nehru’s idea of composite culture, contested by cultural nationalism from the one end and ethno-nationalism from the other end of spectrum comprises the second section. The third section discusses the conception, consolidation, retreat and revival of Nehruvian model of economic development in the light of Washington Consensus and Post-Washington Consensus. His idea of socialism and the mixed economy are debated in liberal, neoliberal and post-neoliberal scenario. His world view faced rough weather during the second and third phase of India’s foreign policy. The former was set in motion after his death, whereas the latter started taking shape in the Post-Soviet world, which has acquired the hegemonic overtones. Contemporary significance of Nehru’s world view in the hegemonic world is probed in the fourth section. The last section sums up the discussion in the form of concluding observations.

In this paper we outline the possibilities of an ethic of care based on our self-affection and subjectivity in the ethical spaces between-two. In this we first refer to three Irigarayan concepts – breath, silence and listening from the third phase of her philosophy, and discuss them within the methodological framework of an ethics of intersubjectivity and interiority. Together with attentiveness, we analyse them as four categories of our ethical becoming. Furthermore, we argue that self-affection is based on our inchoate receptivity for the needs of the other(s) and is thus dialectical in its character. In this we critically confront some epistemological views of our ethical becoming. We wind up this paper with a proposal for an ethics towards two autonomous subjects, based on care and our shared ethical becoming – both as signs of our deepest hospitality towards the other.

Texts, co-texts, and con-texts of the empty tomb in the Jesus traditionAn investigation of texts, co-texts and con-texts of the empty tomb in the Jesus tradition provides a “situation-specific common background knowledge” (Auer, 1996:18-19) from which perspective this article is written. The article aims to argue that the myth behind the empty tomb in the Jesus tradition deploys a trajectory of five links. Its origin, the first of the five links, is to be found in the metaphorical use of the motif of recreation analogous to the foundational narrative in Israel’s historical memoirs of God’s “creatio ex nihilo”. The foundational narrative consists of a collective anthropological facet and an indivdual psychological facet. The anthropological facet is manifested in the memoir of the suppression of Israel as a downtrodden nation. The individual facet pertains to the martyred heroes in Israel’s history. In this article the five links of the trajectory are conceptualised in five chronological phases represented by specific textual evidence. They are, firstly, the descent of a corpse into the sheol; secondly, the objectifying of metaphorical language about the resurrection of the dead, which refers to either Israel as a “corporate personality” or individuals; thirdly, the Hellenisation of the resurrection belief pattern which existed in the Semitic, Eastern-Mediterranean world, in the light of the theology of apotheosis/divinisation and ideas about immortality and reincarnation; and fourthly, the empowerment of suffering righteous mortals when participating in the renewed life of resurrected/ascended divine heroes. The fifth phase pertains to the period when the other four phases reached an apogee and resurrection belief served as a kind of coping-healing. The article aims to argue that the hermeneutical significance of the empty tomb in the Jesus tradition is to be found in the third phase. The modes in terms of which Jesus’ empty tomb were interpreted by the first “Christ-followers” are to be found in phases four and five.

Lack of student interest in studying physics because in addition to lessons that are considered difficult, learning media are also still less attractive so that learning media are needed that can make students interested in a pleasant learning atmosphere that is supported by learning that connects material with applications that occur in everyday life such as contextual based physics comics. The purpose of this research is to produce a product in the form of contextual-based comic media on torsional concept material in high school. The analytical technique used is descriptive qualitative analysis to be able to describe the validation of the questionnaire from the validators of material experts and media experts. This study uses Research and Development (R&D) research with a 4-D model consisting of define, design, development, and dissemination stages. The research is limited due to time constraints so that it only reaches the development stage. The results of the study obtained a material validity value of 4.05 or 81% which was included in the very feasible category and the media validity value of 4.5 or 90% which was included in the very feasible category. From the results of the study, it can be concluded that the development of contextual-based comic learning media on torsional concept material in high school is very feasible to be used as a learning resource. Keywords: Validation, learning media, comic, and contextual

Three main geological units are distinguished in the Mount McGerrigle area of north-central Gaspé, each different in lithology, structural style, and age: a Cambro-Ordovician, complexly deformed assemblage of eugeosynclinal rocks is discordantly intruded by a composite pluton, and is unconformably overlain by mildly deformed Silurian–Devonian platform deposits. Three phases of deformation (F1, F2, F3) have affected the Quebec and Schickshock Groups of Cambro-Ordovidian age. The F1, deformation was accompanied by lowgrade regional metamorphism resulting in a penetrative planar fabric. The F2 deformation deformed pre-existing structures and produced the prevalent northeasterly trending and shallowly plunging folds. The third phase was least penetrative, resulting in broad and upright east-northeasterly striking F3 folds that modify the orientation of F2 structures. The forcefully injected Mount McGerrigle pluton, a late intrusion of the Acadian orogeny, truncates and deforms the F1 and F2 fabric elements of the Cambro-Ordovician rock. Multiphase deformation thus preceded the Acadian orogeny in the area. Silurian–Devonian rocks, on the other hand, have been affected only by the F3 deformation during the Acadian orogeny.

We have divided the evolution of bilateral cooperation between Canada and the French-speaking countries of Africa into three major phases. During the first phase, which lasted from 1961 to 1968, Canadian aid was slight and discontinuous. The second phase, from 1969 to 1975, was characterized by a remarkable increase of the CIDA 's activities. That period was specially influenced, on the one had, by the rudeau and Chevrier missions and, on the other hand, by the reconsideration of Canada's foreign policy during the 1970's. The third phase, from 1975 to 1981, was arked, among other things, by what one could call industrial cooperation, that is cooperation between « project-countries » and « program-countries ». We have tried to analyse the main characteristics of each of those three phases, while striving to « link » them to the socio-economic and political context of Canada and the French-speaking countries of Africa.

Four groups of albino rats were run four trials a day in a straight runway for 44 days. On the first 15 days, two groups were given continuous immediate reward (IR) and two groups a 50 per cent, schedule of 30-sec. partial delay of reward (PDR). On the next 15 days, one IR group and one PDR group were extinguished, while the other IR and PDR groups remained on their original schedules. In the third phase, all groups received 8 days of training on IR. Finally, all groups were given 6 days of extinction training. In the first extinction, PDR produced greater resistance to extinction than IR. In the second extinction period, the PDR group which had previously been given extinction and the two IR groups extinguished relatively rapidly and at approximately the same rates, while the PDR group which had not been extinguished was significantly more resistant to extinction than the other three groups.

Experiments were carried out to assess some insecticide modules against major insect pests of rice. Each module consists of a basal application of carbofuran 3G @ 1 kg a.i ha-1 at 20 DAT and Rynaxypyr 20 SC @ 30 g a.i ha-1 at 45 DAT except untreated control. All modules differ with each other only in third treatment which was applied in 65 DAT. The third treatment includes: Imidacloprid 17.8 SL @ 27 g a.i ha-1, Pymetrozine 50 WG @ 150 g a.i ha-1, Triflumezopyrim 106 SC @ 27 g a.i ha-1, Buprofezin 25 SC @ 250 g a.i ha-1; Glamore (Imidacloprid 40+Ethiprole 40% w/w) 80 WG @ 100 g a.i. ha-1, Thiacloprid 24 SC @ 60 g a.i ha-1, Azadirachtin 0.03 EC @ 8 g a.i ha-1, Dinotefuran 20 SG@ 40 g a.i ha-1 and untreated control. All the treated plots recorded significantly lower percent of dead heart, white ear- head caused by stem borer and silver shoot caused by gall midge. Module with Pymetrozine 50 WG @ 150 g a.i ha-1 treated plot recorded significantly higher per cent reduction of plant hoppers (>80% over untreated control) and produced higher grain yield (50.75 qha-1) than the other modules. Among the different treated modules the maximum number of spiders was found in Azadirachtin 0.03 EC @ 8 g a.i ha-1 treated module plot followed by other treatments.
