The Effectiveness of Blended Learning by Using "Google Classroom" on the Achievement and Attitudes toward Mathematics of the Fourth-Grade Students
هدفت الدراسة الحالية، إلى الكشف عن أثر التعلم المدمج في التحصيل الدراسي في الرياضيات لدى تلاميذ الصف الرابع واتجاهاتهم نحوها باستخدام أحد التطبيقات المستندة إلى الحوسبة السحابية (فصول جوجل Google Classroom). وطبقت الدراسة على عينة من تلاميذ مدرسة المنهل الدولية، للعام الدراسي 2018\2019، المكونة من شعبتين من الصف الرابع وعددهم 61 تلميذاً، وتكونت المجموعة التي خضعت للتعلم المدمج من 31 تلميذاً، بينما تكونت مجموعة التعليم الاعتيادي من 30 تلميذاً. ولتحقيق أهداف الدراسة استُخدم المنهج شبه التجريبي. واستُخدمت في الدراسة أداتان: اختبار التحصيل الدراسي في الرياضيات، ومقياس الاتجاهات نحو الرياضيات. وأظهرت نتائج الدراسة أن هناك فروقاً دالة إحصائيا في مستوى التحصيل الدراسي، والاتجاهات نحو الرياضيات، لصالح مجموعة التعلم المدمج. وأن هنالك علاقة ارتباط إيجابية دالة إحصائيا بين التحصيل الدراسي، والاتجاهات نحو الرياضيات.This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of blended learning using Google classroom application on grade fours student’s achievement in mathematics and their attitudes toward it. The study sample consisted of 61 students of the fourth-grade students at Manhal International School in 2018\2019 academic year. The sample was divided into two study groups, a group of blended learning consisting of 31 students and a conventional group consisting of 30 students. The quasi-experimental analysis method was used to achieve the objectives of the study. Two tools were used in the study: Academic achievement test in probability and statistics, and questionnaire of attitudes towards mathematics. The study results showed that there were statistically significant differences in academic achievement and attitudes toward mathematics in favour of blended learning group, and there was a significant positive correlation between academic achievement and attitudes towards mathematic
A clumpy and anisotropic galaxy halo at z=1 from gravitational-arc tomography
Every star-forming galaxy has a halo of metal-enriched gas extending out to
at least 100 kpc, as revealed by the absorption lines this gas imprints on the
spectra of background quasars. However, quasars are sparse and typically probe
only one narrow pencil beam through the intervening galaxy. Close quasar pairs
and gravitationally lensed quasars have been used to circumvent this inherently
one-dimensional technique, but these objects are rare and the structure of the
circum-galactic medium remains poorly constrained. As a result, our
understanding of the physical processes that drive the re-cycling of baryons
across the lifetime of a galaxy is limited. Here we report integral-field
(tomographic) spectroscopy of an extended background source -a bright giant
gravitational arc. We can thus coherently map the spatial and kinematic
distribution of Mg II absorption -a standard tracer of enriched gas- in an
intervening galaxy system at redshift 0.98 (i.e., ~8 Gyr ago). Our
gravitational-arc tomography unveils a clumpy medium in which the
absorption-strength decreases with increasing impact parameter, in good
agreement with the statistics towards quasars; furthermore, we find strong
evidence that the gas is not distributed isotropically. Interestingly, we
detect little kinematic variation over a projected area of ~600 kpc squared,
with all line-of-sight velocities confined to within a few tens of km/s of each
other. These results suggest that the detected absorption originates from
entrained recycled material, rather than in a galactic outflow.Comment: Published online in Nature on 31 January 201
Synthesis and Characterization of some New 1,3,4-Oxadiazole derivatives based on 4-amino benzoic acid
Various of 2,5- disubstituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole (Schiff base, ?- lactam and azo) were synthesized from 2,5-di (4,4?-amino-1,3,4-oxadiazole which usequently synth-esized from mixture of 4- amino benzoic acid and hydrazine arch of polyphosphorus acid. The synthesized compounds were cherecterized by using some spectral data (UV, FT-IR , and 1H-NMR
Descripción de los corales rugosos y tabulados del Serpukhoviense de las formaciones Idmarrach y Tirhela (Adarouch, Marruecos)
Se describen los corales rugosos y tabulados de las formaciones Idmarrach y Tirhela, que se localizan en el área de Adarouch, en la Meseta central de Marruecos. Se han identificado 32 especies de corales rugosos pertenecientes a 19 géneros y una especie de coral tabulado. Las asociaciones de edad Serpukhoviense de las formaciones estudiadas están compuestas en su mayoría por especies que tienen su máximo desarrollo en el Viseense superior. Sin embargo, la mayoría de los taxones identificados en Adarouch han sido mencionados previamente en rocas del Serpukhoviense de otras regiones del Paleotethys occidental y las cuencas epicontinentales del norte de África. Las asociaciones de corales están dominadas por corales coloniales pertenecientes a la familia Lithostrotionidae y por corales solitarios pertenecientes a la familia Aulophyllidae. Son también frecuentes los representantes de las familias Axophyllidae, Cyathaxoniidae, Cyathopsidae, Palaeosmiliidae, Stereophrentidae y Zaphrentoididae. El medio de desarrollo de los corales estudiados fue una plataforma carbonatada interna a media con importantes aportes de terrígenos finos.The Serpukhovian coral assemblages from the Idmarrach and Tirhela formations in Central Morocco are described. 32 rugose species belonging to 19 genera and 1 tabulate species have been identified. The Serpukhovian assemblages are composed mostly of species that have their greater abundance in the upper Viséan. However, most recorded taxa in Adarouch have been already mentioned in Serpukhovian rocks from other regions in the Palaeotethys and in North African epicontinental basins. The coral assemblage is dominated by colonial corals belonging to the family Lithostrotionidae and solitary corals belonging to the family Aulophyllidae. In addition, representatives of the families Axophyllidae, Cyathaxoniidae, Cyathopsidae, Palaeosmiliidae, Stereophrentidae and Zaphrentoididae are also present in the assemblages. The environment where the corals lived was mostly an inner to middle carbonate platform with a minor but significant input of terrigenous sediments.Depto. de Geodinámica, Estratigrafía y PaleontologíaFac. de Ciencias GeológicasTRUEMinisterio de Ciencia e Innovación (MICINN)pu
The BOSS Emission-Line Lens Survey. III. : Strong Lensing of Ly Emitters by Individual Galaxies
We introduce the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) Emission-Line
Lens Survey (BELLS) for GALaxy-Ly EmitteR sYstems (BELLS GALLERY)
Survey, which is a Hubble Space Telescope program to image a sample of
galaxy-scale strong gravitational lens candidate systems with high-redshift
Ly emitters (LAEs) as the background sources. The goal of the BELLS
GALLERY Survey is to illuminate dark substructures in galaxy-scale halos by
exploiting the small-scale clumpiness of rest-frame far-UV emission in lensed
LAEs, and to thereby constrain the slope and normalization of the
substructure-mass function. In this paper, we describe in detail the
spectroscopic strong-lens selection technique, which is based on methods
adopted in the previous Sloan Lens ACS (SLACS) Survey, BELLS, and SLACS for the
Masses Survey. We present the BELLS GALLERY sample of the 21 highest-quality
galaxy--LAE candidates selected from galaxy spectra
in the BOSS of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III. These systems consist of
massive galaxies at redshifts of approximately 0.5 strongly lensing LAEs at
redshifts from 2--3. The compact nature of LAEs makes them an ideal probe of
dark substructures, with a substructure-mass sensitivity that is unprecedented
in other optical strong-lens samples. The magnification effect from lensing
will also reveal the structure of LAEs below 100 pc scales, providing a
detailed look at the sites of the most concentrated unobscured star formation
in the universe. The source code used for candidate selection is available for
download as a part of this release.Comment: 14 pages, 5 figures, accepted for publication in the ApJ (ApJ, 824,

Tratamiento quirúrgico de la escoliosis en el síndrome de Rett: sistema de instrumentación TRANSPINE
El Síndrome de Rett es una afectación neurológica que en los estadios últimos presenta deformidades evolutivas que suelen precisar cirugía. Se han revisado en este estudio 11 pacientes con Síndrome de Rett y deformidad en columna que precisaron cirugía. Se analizaron las magnitudes de las curvas con ángulo de Cobb, alteraciones del plano sagital (cifosis y lordosis), oblicuidad pélvica pre y postoperatoria, niveles de fusión y complicaciones postoperatorias. La corrección media fue del 65%. Se realizó una fusión posterior en todos los pacientes sin incluir sacro pelvis. Los montajes se realizaron principalmente con sistema híbrido de tornillos, ganchos, pinzas y cables laminares TRANSPINE®. Las escoliosis neuromusculares, como el síndrome de Rett, que precisan corrección, pueden controlarse de forma segura y efectiva mediante artrodesis posterior con instrumentación híbrida.Rett Syndrome is a neurological impairment with a typically long C scoliosis curve that often require surgery. In this study it has been reviewed 11 patients with Rett syndrome and spine deformity. We analyzed the magnitudes of the curves with Cobb angle, sagittal plane (kyphosis and lordosis), preoperative and postoperative pelvic obliquity, fusion levels and postoperative complications. The average correction was 65%. Posterior fusion was performed in all patients excluding sacrum pelvis. The assemblies are made mainly with the hybrid system of screws, hooks, clips and cables TRANSPINE®. Neuromuscular scoliosis, such as Rett syndrome, which needs correction, can be controlled safely and effectively by posterior fusion with hybrid constructs
