The Lower Depths

The Lower Depths is considered one of Maxim Gorky\u27s most masterful plays, and an exemplar of Russian social realism. The play first premiered in 1902 at the Moscow Arts Theatre, and focuses on a set of impoverished Russians living in a shelter and struggling to handle the harsh realities of their lives

Critical Issues On Learning Process Amidst Covid-19 Perceived From Pedagogical Perspectives

This study examined the implementation of online learning that took place during the Covid-19  pandemic. The goal was to unravel and straighten out various doubts and complaints in the community who think that the implementation of online learning caused problems rather than an alternative to the practical mode of learning. The study utilized a literature study (library research), that is integrative review. It was closely related to the semi-structured review aiming at assessing, criticizing, and synthesizing the literature on the related research topic in a way that enables new theoretical frameworks and perspectives to emerge. Additionally, the process follows four phases: design, conduct, analysis, and finally structuring and writing the review. The study showed a broad misunderstanding in society about what happened during working and studying from the home period. Many people suspected that what happened was online learning. However, it is not online learning but an emergency remote teaching instead. This implied that most online learning in operations did not meet the standardized requirements as it was established. Furthermore, not using the intelligent flexible learning model (the Fifth Generation of Online Learning Mode) resulted in significant complications at the operational level. Moreover, what factually happened did not meet the characteristics of online learning systems and services. Above all, most online learning institutions still ignore the use of appropriate pedagogics. This study also demonstrated the importance of utilizing a complete instructional design so that the learning experience as a condition for the learning outcomes effectively achieved was equally present in the learning process. Comprehensive planning that was arranged systematically and structured will allow dialogue for students in the implementation stage. The dialogue space must occur not only between students and teachers as well as students and students but also, more importantly, self-dialogue for each student. Some insights for future consideration were also formulated and recommended for better online learning implementation &nbsp

Driven weak to strong pinning crossover in partially nanopatterned 2H-NbSe2 single crystal

Investigations into the heterogeneous pinning properties of the vortex state created by partially nano-patterning single crystals of 2H-NbSe2 reveal an atypical magnetization response which is significantly drive dependent. Analysis of the magnetization response shows non-monotonic behavior of the magnetization relaxation rate with varying magnetic field sweep rate. With all the patterned pinning centers saturated with vortices, we find that the pinning force experienced by the vortices continues to increase with increasing drive. Our studies reveal an unconventional dynamic weak to strong pinning crossover where the flow of the vortex state appears to be hindered or jammed as it is driven harder through the interstitial voids in the patterned pinning lattice.Comment: 15 pages with 5 figure

Anomalous local magnetic field distribution and strong pinning in CaFe1.94Co0.06As2 single crystals

Magneto-optical imaging of a single crystal of CaFe1.94Co0.06As2, shows anomalous remnant magnetization within Meissner like regions of the superconductor. The unconventional shape of the local magnetization hysteresis loop suggests admixture of superconducting and magnetic fractions governing the response. Near the superconducting transition temperature, local magnetic field exceeds the applied field resulting in a diamagnetic to positive magnetization transformation. The observed anomalies in the local magnetic field distribution are accompanied with enhanced bulk pinning in the CaFe1.94Co0.06As2 single crystals. We propose our results suggest a coexistence of superconductivity and magnetic correlations.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1201.369

MicroSQUID Force microscopy in a dilution refrigerator

We present a new generation of a scanning MicroSQUID microscope operating in an inverted dilution refrigerator. The MicroSQUIDs have a size of 1.21$ \ \mum\textsuperscript{2} and a magnetic flux sensitivity of 120 \mu\Phi_{0} / \sqrt{\textrm{Hz}}$and thus a field sensitivity of$550^{-6} \ \Phi_{0} / \sqrt{\textrm{Hz}}$550$ \ \mu \textrm{G}/ \sqrt{\textrm{Hz}}$. The scan range at low temperatures is about 80$\mu$m and a coarse displacement of 5 mm in x and y direction has been implemented. The MicroSQUID-to-sample distance is regulated using a tuning fork based force detection. A MicroSQUID-to-sample distance of 420 nm has been obtained. The reliable knowledge of this distance is necessary to obtain a trustworthy estimate of the absolute value of the superconducting penetration depth. An outlook will be given on the ongoing direction of development

PENGARUH METODE PROJECT-BASED BLENDED LEARNING TERHADAP MOTIVASI DAN HASIL BELAJAR IPA SISWA KELAS V SD NEGERI 13 MUARO KABUPATEN SIJUNJUNG

Penelitian ini dilatar belakangi berberapa masalah yang ditemukan guru lebih dominan pada metode ceramah, guru mendominasi pembelajaran sehingga peserta didik  bersifat pasif serta mendengar dan duduk diam saat guru menyampaikan materi. Pembelajaran bersifat teacher-centered sehingga proses belajar mengajar menjadi monoton, peserta didik tidak termotivasi sehingga keaktifannya di dalam pembelajaran tidak terlihat. Selain itu kemampuan guru dalam penggunaan media alat-alat IT dimasa era digital dan lemahnya guru dalam memberikan kreativitas peserta didik dalam memberi tugas berbentuk proyek  membuat pembelajaran menjadi kurang bermakna yang berpotensi menyebabkan kompetensi ranah pengetahuan peserta didik menurun. Motivasi belajar peserta didik juga belum baik dalam proses pembelajaran sehingga mempengaruhi hasil pembelajaran. Model yang dapat dilaksanakan pada pembelajaran tematik terpadu yaitu model Project Based Blended Learning. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh metode Project Based Blended Learning terhadap  motivasi dan hasil belajar IPA siswa kelas V SD Negeri 13 Muaro  Kabupaten   Sijunjung. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kuantitatif dengan desain penelitian quasi eksperiment. Sampel penelitian ini adalah peserta didik  kelas V.A dan V.B SD Negeri 13 Muaro sebanyak 58 peserta didik. Data penelitian ini diperoleh dari angket dan hasil belajar peserta didik. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa : (1) terdapat pengaruh metode Project Based Blanded learning terhadap motivasi belajar diperoleh nilai thitung yang diperoleh adalah 2,884 > 2,055, maka Ha diterima.  (2) terdapat pengaruh metode Project Based Blanded learning terhadap hasil belajar peserta didik belajar diperoleh nilai thitung yang diperoleh adalah 4,638 > 2,055, maka Ha diterima; (3) terdapat pengaruh metode Project Based Blanded learning yang signifikan terhadap motivasi dan hasil belajar peserta didik diperoleh Fhitung 5,672. > 3,28. maka H1 diterima.   Kata Kunci : Project-Based Blended Learning, Motivasi dan Hasil Belajar Penelitian ini dilatar belakangi berberapa masalah yang ditemukan guru lebih dominan pada metode ceramah, guru mendominasi pembelajaran sehingga peserta didik bersifat pasif serta mendengar dan duduk diam saat guru menyampaikan materi.
