Team Learning in Motion Capture Operations and Independent Rigging Processes
This article discusses team learning activities among motion captures operators and how such occasions contribute to the producing successful on recording human movement. This paper specifically monitors between each team behaviors reacts, communicate members in performing successful optical motion capture tasks. Among task's component discussed in this article were team members ability to operate the equipment, calibrate, and most significantly, the social interaction between team in avoiding numerous of errors in motion capture operations. The tests were influenced of the reason of high requirement by animation industry in Malaysia, where most graduates are required highly skilled in multiple software platform. This study aim to obtain practice-based factors among team learning , which can be implement to the simulated start-ups environments, which can be applied and simulate beyond current education systems. Method-The motion capture test activities were advertised among undergraduate students, with unrestricted level of undergraduate and postgraduate students. Two tasks given, team-based task, and individual-based tasks. All participants were required to attend the tests which in 5 days duration. The required background of all participants skills in Motion Capture operations were not required, only with minimal multimedia knowledge background. Most of demographics were mixture gender participants with 11 animation students of (8 freshmen) and (3 sophomore) and divided into 3 teams. All task was based on test-time learning to all participants. Each team learning activities also observed with repeated Motion Capture operations and include individual tests. Results-The time-based team result showed all team successfully calibrated all process setup in Motion Capture accordingly, where the outcome indicated each team member communicate effectively in perform all operations tasks. In opposite of independent tasks, the findings indicated individual tasks took longer duration as compared team-based task. As a result, team of learners positively contributed to efficient productivity than individual learners. As conclusion, the study discovered the importance of practice-based learning in teams for staging production work and found new elements by acknowledging the differences and similarities in each team members work cultures and environments
Investigation of filler effects on the compounding of freeze-dried orodispersible tablets containing Annona muricata extract
Orally disintegrating tablets are a solid dosage form that will disintegrate
rapidly within 3 minutes upon contact with saliva. Fillers or diluents are
excipients that are used to make up the volume of orally disintegrating
tablets, and some might act as a disintegrant or binder that will affect the
physical properties of orally disintegrating tablets. The objective of this
study was to formulate and evaluate physical properties of orally disin-
tegrating tablets containing Annona muricata leaves extract by a freeze-
drying method using different fillers at different concentrations. In this
study, fifteen formulations of orally disintegrating tablets were prepared
by a freeze-drying method with different fillers such as starch, lactose,
microcrystalline cellulose, StarLac, and CombiLac at 5%, 10%, and 15%.
The orally disintegrating tablets were evaluated for hardness, thickness,
weight variation, friability, and disintegration time test. The optimum
formulation was chosen and incorporated with Annona muricata leaves
extract. The results obtained in this work indicated that Formulation 3,
with 15% starch, was the most optimum formulation due to the shortest
disintegration time (21.08 seconds ยฑ 4.24 seconds), and all the physical
tests were within the acceptable range. The orally disintegrating tablets
containing Annona muricata leaves extract possessed antioxidant activity
and stable at least for 3 months under 60ยฐC and 75% RH
