The research explores the attitudes of EFL teachers and their teaching practices in the classroom about teaching and learning interaction using the Scientific Approach in the Indonesian school context. This study employs a descriptive study using a purposive sampling technique and taking 34 respondents from EFL teachers. The questionnaire and interview used to collect data on perception of EFL teachers on the scientific approach in the process of teaching and learning, and observation applied to gain the data on the EFL teachers’ teaching practices in implementing the scientific approach in their classroom interaction. The result of this study showed that there were apparent differences in the way of EFL teachers perceive the scientific approach in their classroom teaching and learning practices. The differences lead the teachers to three group categories: (1) the highly implementing scientific approach; (2) moderately implementing scientific approach; and (3) poorly implementing the scientific approach. This research expects to be a reference for teachers professional development especially teachers capacity building implementing the 2013 curriculum.

In the epidemiological literature, the fetal origins hypothesis associated with David J. Barker posits that chronic, degenerative conditions of adult health, including heart disease and type 2 diabetes, may be triggered by circumstances decades earlier, particularly, by in utero nutrition. Economists have expanded on this hypothesis, investigating a broader range of fetal shocks and circumstances and have found a wealth of later-life impacts on outcomes including test scores, educational attainment, and income, along with health. In the process, they have

Bill Hillier’s space syntax method and theory enables us to describe the spatial properties of a sustainable city. Empirical testing of the space syntax method over time has confirmed the capacity and innovativeness of analyzing spatial relationships with the purpose of understanding and explaining the socio-spatial organization of built environments. However, the conceptual framework of space syntax elements is scattered around in various academic writings. This article, therefore, gives a holistic and compact overview of the various concepts that are

Global atmospheric temperatures are presently in a warming phase that began 250--300 years ago. Speculations on the potential impact of continued warming on human health often focus on mosquito-borne diseases. Elementary models suggest that higher global temperatures will enhance their transmission rates and extend their geographic ranges. However, the histories of three such diseases--malaria, yellow fever, and dengue--reveal that climate has rarely been the principal determinant of their prevalence or range; human activities and their impact on local ecology have

Understanding social-ecological systems (SES) is crucial to supporting the sustainable management of resources. Agent-based modelling is a valuable tool to achieve this because it can represent the behaviour and interactions of organisms, human actors and institutions. Agent-based models (ABMs) have therefore already been widely used to study SES. However, ABMs of SES are by their very nature complex. They are therefore di icult to parameterize and analyse, which can limit their usefulness. It is time to critically reflect upon the
