MANAJEMEN PERENCANAAN KURIKULUM

The curriculum is a blue print of an educational institution, through the curriculum prospective guardians and prospective students can see what kind of competency picture will be obtained by their children or personal students. So that in planning the curriculum, managers of educational institutions should understand what they must prepare in planning a curriculum. Therefore, through library research or also called this literature study, the author collects library data, reads, records and processes from various sources, the main data sources are from books and journals that discuss the curriculum and are supported by the author's personal experience in the field in developing the curriculum to provide an objective picture of curriculum planning management.

Multi-modality imaging evaluation and pre-surgical planning for aortic valve-sparing operations in patients with aortic root aneurysm.

Cardiac computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (CMR) supplement echocardiography in the evaluation of those with aortic root and ascending aortic dilation, determining timing for intervention, guiding pre-surgical planning and post-operative surveillance. The dynamic, three-dimensional complexity of the aortic root and how it relates to the base of the left ventricle must be understood in any surgical approach addressing the aneurysmal aortic root. With improved imaging technology and the importance for proper patient counseling, it is no longer acceptable to enter the operating theater without a detailed blue print of what the problem is, and how best to address it. In addition, reliance on surgical expertise alone for intraoperative evaluation and decision making could be suboptimal due to the unloaded condition of the aortic root and the variance of experience of the surgeons to successfully repair the aortic valve. This is exemplified by the selective surgeons and centers who have the ability to tackle these aortic valve and root pathologies, compared to mitral valve repair techniques that have been codified and are generalizable. This review discusses a multimodality imaging approach in the patient with aortic root aneurysm, focusing on the precision added with pre-surgical CT assessment to guide aortic-valve sparing operations. This precision is afforded with a detailed understanding of the anatomy of the aortic root and underlying support, and its accurate evaluation by standard two- and three-dimensional imaging. Furthermore, we describe the evolving ability to predict the location of ventricular components of the atrioventricular conduction axis with further clinical imaging to personalize surgical strategies.

Use of the genetic signature of 70-genes MammaPrint in comparision with the immunohistochemical profile to de-escalate systemic treatment in the elderly population: Real-world study (AGEMA-BR).

e12561 Background: the elderly population, generally, presents a lower performance and greater susceptibility to complications and adverse effects of therapies, inferring that the de-escalation of cytotoxic therapies is desirable. Genetic signatures, including MammaPrint/ BluePrint, are the most appropriate tools to select among estrogen receptor (ER) patients with high clinical risk, who could, with oncological safety, not receiving adjuvant chemotherapy. Objective – to evaluate the performance of MammaPrint™ (MP) / BluePrint (BP) and the immunohistochemical profile (IHC) in the de-escalation of systemic therapy in the elderly population with breast cancer and Luminal profile. Methods: from the patients in the AGEMA-BRA study, which analyzes the performance of the 70-gene MammaPrint™ platform in the Brazilian population, those aged 70 years or older, with high clinical risk, who had data on the immunohistochemical profile available (37 patients). A comparative analysis was performed between the genomic profile (Luminal A/B on BluePrint; high and low risk on MammaPrint™ and the immunohistochemical profile (considered Luminal A with ER >10%, RP>10%, HER2 negative, Ki67 ≤20% Luminal B with ER>10%, HER2 negative, Ki67>20%) and clinical endpoints including disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Data analysis used accuracy and the Kappa coefficient (considering concordance >0, 6). Results: mean age at diagnosis 73.1 years (70–80 years) and mean follow-up (FU) of 42 months. Of the 15 patients with high risk / luminal B by MP / BP, 5 were classified as luminal A by the IHC profile with a disagreement of 33.33%; of the 22 low-risk / luminal A patients by MP/BP, 6 were classified as luminal B by the IHC, a disagreement of 27.27%. Statistical analysis showed an accuracy between the IHC profile and the MP of 70.27%. The use of the IHC profile, when compared with the MP/BP, showed a sensitivity of 66.7% and a specificity of 72.7%. Of the 14 patients at high risk due to MP, 2 did not undergo chemotherapy treatment. All patients (at high and low risk) received adjuvant endocrine therapy with an aromatase inhibitor. After 42 months of medium FU, all patients were alive and disease-free, inferring DFS and OS of 100%. Conclusions: the analysis of data and outcomes in the elderly population of the AGEMA-BRA study with high clinical risk, demonstrated limited accuracy and low agreement in the stratification into high and low risk between the profile by IHC and the MP/BP. The use of the genomic platform may have been relevant in risk stratification and outcomes in this population. Studies with a larger sample and longer FU are needed to confirm the usefulness of genetic signatures in the de-escalation of systemic treatment in the elderly population with high clinical risk.

Reflex MammaPrint testing on breast core biopsies: A single center experience.

e12581 Background: Breast cancer genomic assays are well established in the adjuvant setting, but still evolving in the neoadjuvant setting. Recent data shows that MammaPrint (MP)/BluePrint (BP) genomic assays in the neoadjuvant setting can reclassify hormone receptor positive (HR+), HER2 negative (HER2-) tumors into intrinsic phenotypes with corresponding responses to neoadjuvant therapy (NAC). We performed reflex MP/BP assays on invasive breast cancer core biopsies and evaluated the relationships between clinical risk, molecular risk and intrinsic phenotype. Methods: 150 consecutive HR+, HER2- invasive breast cancers were identified by core biopsy in a tertiary care cancer center and underwent reflex MP/BP testing by an external central laboratory between July 2021 and Jan 2022. Retrospective review was completed on patient demographics and tumor characteristics; descriptive statistics were performed. Results: Of 150 newly diagnosed HR+ HER2- breast cancers, 141 successfully had a reflex MP/BP test performed; 9 were not performed due to technical feasibility or clerical error. Of the 141 patients with a completed MP/BP assay, 7 had recurrent disease, and 8 had metastatic disease, these were excluded. Patients were categorized as clinically high (cHR) or low risk (cLR) using the criteria from the MINDACT trial and as molecularly high risk (MP HR) or low risk (MP LR) per their MP results. We then grouped patients with discordant clinical and molecular risk. We then examined clinical features and NAC receipt amongst these clinical and molecular risk groups. Conclusions: There was discordance between clinical and molecular risk in 38% of our cohort, 20% were cLR/MP and 18% were cHR/MP LR. The decision to give NAC was primarily driven by clinical risk as only 1 patient with cLR/MP HR received NAC. Amongst cHR/MP LR 87% did not get NAC, but this appears to have been a clinical decision as only 7 of these patients had a pre-operative oncology visit at which MP/BP was mentioned. Most (72%) of > cN1 patients received NAC, of the 5 who didn’t, 4 were in the MP LR group and had a pre-operative oncology visit where MP was mentioned. In this select group the genomic assay may have influenced the decision to withhold NAC. Reflex genomic assays for HR+ HER2- breast cancer may not be useful; the decision to integrate molecular risk into the decision for NAC is multifactorial and stage of disease may be most impactful. Further work is needed in this area. [Table: see text] [Table: see text]

A Discourse Analysis Of Students-Teacher Pattern Interaction In Elt Classroom

This study aims to find patterns of interaction between students and teachers in ELT classes. Participants involved in this study were 32 students and one English teacher. This research is a qualitative research with a descriptive design. This relates to the use of language in a social context, namely interaction or dialogue between students and teachers. The author uses 2 types of instruments, namely observation using the blue print protocol and also recording all English learning activities in the ninth grade of SMP N Toboali. Then after making observations and obtaining all the required data, the authors conducted an analysis using FIAS (Flanders Interaction System Analysis) which consisted of 3 parts, namely the teacher's indirect influence, the teacher's direct influence and students' speech responses. The teacher's indirect influence consists of 3 kinds of interactions such as receiving feelings, praising encouragement, accepting or using student ideas, and asking questions. Then, the teacher's direct influence consists of lecturing or explaining, giving directions, and criticizing or justifying authority. The last is the student's response which consists of the student's speech response, student initiation, and silence. According to the research results, there are four types of classroom interaction research: content traffic, teacher control, teacher support, and student participation. Based on the results of the data found, it shows that the dominant pattern used in this study is student participation, with a total of 54 or 45% of utterances. Hence, it can be concluded that the students of ninth grade students at SMPN 3 Toboali were active during the teaching and learning process in class.

A Possible Blue Print of Addressing mRNA Vaccine Efficacy

As the COVID-19 pandemic progresses, more and more strategies to combat this pandemic have been proposed, and the mRNA vaccine against COVID-19 has been considered as one of the most potential therapies to terminate the pandemic. However, a few problems of it have been discovered during the whole investigation, such as instability, poor efficacy. Meanwhile, some researchers illustrated that improving the dose of mRNA vaccine to get better efficacy may induce worse adverse reactions due to the delivery of vaccine was ‘lipid nanoparticles (LNPs)’. High level of LNPs would induce cell death by their toxicity, Therefore, some new modifications of mRNA should be paid attention and applied to produce the new mRNA vaccine. It is possible to promote the development of mRNA vaccine for better stability, efficacy, and lower price. This review introduces current modifications of mRNA vaccines for improved stability and discusses some novel ideas.

Abstract PD9-08: ImPrint immune signature in 10,000 early-stage breast cancer patients from the real-world FLEX database

Abstract BACKGROUND: Immune checkpoint inhibitors in combination with chemotherapy have demonstrated an improvement of pathologic complete response (pCR) in patients with HR-HER2- and MammaPrint (MP) High Risk, HR+HER2- tumors in the I-SPY2 TRIAL. However, not all patients benefit from immune checkpoint blockade and these new agents come with additional financial burden and significant long-lasting side effects such as adrenal insufficiency. Thus, it is imperative to better understand who benefits. Response Predictive Subtypes (RPS) were developed in the I-SPY2 TRIAL using pre-treatment expression data from 987 MP High Risk patients; 39% of HR+HER2- tumors and 63% of HR-HER2- tumors were identified as immune sensitive. In I-SPY2.2, RPS tumor classification uses ImPrint, a 53-gene signature that has been independently validated to predict the likelihood of a pCR with PD1-PDL1 immune checkpoint inhibitors with high sensitivity and specificity. Using a real-world dataset of 10,000 patients enrolled in the FLEX trial, we identified immune sensitive (ImPrint+) patients within immunohistochemistry (IHC) subtypes and within MP and BluePrint (BP) subgroups. METHODS: FLEX (NCT03053193) is an ongoing registry trial with 97 sites open in the United States and 2 international sites. Patients enrolled in FLEX have early-stage breast cancer and receive standard of care MP testing with or without BP molecular subtyping and consent to clinically annotated full genome data collection. MP is a 70-gene risk of distant recurrence signature that classifies patients as Low Risk or High Risk. MP High Risk can be further stratified into High 1 and High 2, which have demonstrated differences in chemosensitivity and pCR rates in the I-SPY2 TRIAL (NCT01042379). BP, an 80-gene molecular subtyping signature, categorizes patients’ tumors as Luminal-, HER2- or Basal-Type. RESULTS: Of the 10,021 patients, 9.1% of the FLEX patient population are ImPrint+ and are predicted to have a meaningful pCR rate with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Younger (≤ 50 years) or pre/peri-menopausal patients, patients with larger or node-positive tumors, and patients of Black or Latin race/ethnicity independently had a higher likelihood of having ImPrint+ tumors (Table 1). ImPrint+ tumors were identified in all clinical subtypes by IHC. There is a higher likelihood of ImPrint+ tumors being MP High 2 or BP Basal-Type tumors. Within BP Basal tumors, 74.7% of HR+ and 66.0% of HR- tumors were ImPrint+. CONCLUSIONS: The focus of immune therapy trials has been on patients with HR-HER2-, MP High Risk patients. Indeed, most patients who are predicted to benefit have MP High 2 or BP Basal-Type tumors, including some HR+ patients, which is consistent with I-SPY2 results. Importantly, this large real-world dataset enables the identification of populations who may benefit from immune therapy outside of traditional clinical trial populations and supports the testing of checkpoint inhibitors in the immune-positive subtype. Younger women and patients of Black or Latin race/ethnicity who typically have more aggressive tumors also have higher proportions of ImPrint+ tumors. Thus, it is critical that these populations be included in clinical trials. This first look at immune sensitivity in over 10,000 FLEX patients with ImPrint generates preliminary data and hypotheses that will be explored in future FLEX substudies, including an analysis of lobular cancers and long-term outcomes in ImPrint+ patients across all races and ages.

An enquiry to ascertain attitude of B.Ed. trainees towards sex education in view of inclusion and promotion of reproductive health education in school curriculum for a sustainable future

The present study aims to find out the attitude of trainee teachers towards sex education. The attitude of trainee teachers matters a lot because it is them who are future school teachers and are agents of imparting reproductive health related knowledge which is an important issue of population education in bringing positive change in the attitude towards and management of reproductive health of the students. Estimation of trainee teachers’ understanding about sex education gives us idea of the need of inclusion of reproductive health education in teacher education curriculum and with that we are able to prepare a blue print of future road ahead to sensitize students at school level about management of reproductive health that is beneficial not only in maintaining wellbeing of reproductive health but attaining sustainable development goals ensuring gender equality, reducing inequalities and promoting peace and justice in society at large. 78 trainee teachers of semester III (2nd year) of B.Ed. course from Shri Shikshayatan College, Kolkata participated in a questionnaire survey regarding their attitude toward sex education in schools. Through analyzing their attitude, it has been tried to understand how perspectives of trainee teachers towards sex education irrespective of their subject of expertise are important to be effective and appropriate for the successful implementation of reproductive health education in schools.

This study examined influence of National Home-Grown School Feeding Programme on primary school pupils’ attendance and academic performance in Makurdi, Benue State, Nigeria. Two specific objectives with corresponding research questions and hypotheses were raised and formulated respectively to guide the study. The study adopted survey research design and was carried out in Makurdi Local Government Area of Benue State, Nigeria. The population of this study is 1870 teachers from 79 public primary schools in Makurdi Local Government Area of Benue State. The sample size for this study is 330 teachers. A structured questionnaire titled “National Home-Grown School Feeding Programme and Pupils Attendance and Performance in Public Primary Schools Questionnaire" was developed and used for the study. Cronbach Alpha Statistic was used to obtain an overall reliability coefficient of 0.89 for the instrument. The descriptive statistics of mean and standard deviation were used to answer the two research questions. Chi-square statistics was used to test the two null hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. From analysis of data, the following major findings were made: provision of meals to pupils improve their daily regular attendance, improves enrolment in primary schools, enhances their punctuality, and also improves their co-curricular activities. Based on the findings of the study, the following recommendations are made; the State Government should try and replicate the blue print of the Federal Government's National Home-Grown School Feeding Programme to every Local Government in the State so as to ensure sustainability in the provision of meals to pupils and as well as improve their daily regular attendance as well as enhancing their punctuality. Also, the Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC) and other education stakeholders should initiate school feeding integrated intervention programmes that improves co-curricular activities through provision of meals to pupils this will influence their ability to understand the practicality of things during learning and also improve their ability to engage with digital technologies.

New Local Government System: A Step Towards Community Empowerment?

Failure of the central/provincial governments to adequately capture local preferences and provide basic services strengthened the case for a new local government system for delivery of public services along with the authority to impose fees, taxes, user charges, etc. to finance these services. The new System aims at transferring political, administrative and fiscal powers1 from higher tiers of the government to lower tiers (Figure 1) in order to bring governments closer to common citizens for greater accountability and better understanding of the needs and preferences of people. National Reconstruction Bureau (NRB) was entrusted the task of designing a local government system which presented its first blue print in the form of “Devolution Plan 2000”. As a result of this exercise a new Local Government System has been installed in Pakistan on 14th August 2001 after the promulgation of Local Government Ordinance 2001 by all the four Provinces. The new System comprises a District Government or a City District Government and Zila Council in a district, Tehsil Municipal Administration and Tehsil Council in a tehsil (a Town Municipal Administration and Town Council in a town in a city district) and Union Administration and Union Council in a union. Village/Neighbourhood councils provide an interface with the lowest tier of the Local Government (Union Administration) with the community.

Rewriting the Early Indigenous Struggle: Oscar and Lucinda and Remembering Babylon

Remembering Babylon and Oscar and Lucinda, are the result of the Aboriginals’ movements, resistance and literature that appear after 1950s. Peter Carey’s Oscar and Lucinda and David Malouf’s Remembering Babylon, reflect the historically left issues of the early Aboriginals’ struggle when they came into contact with the European civilization. Both the texts, transcribe the images of early European’s settlement in Australia and their colonial blue print of dealing with native geography, nature and humans. The analysis of the texts concludes that among British’s well planned reasons of the colonization of Australia the economic factors were most dominating. The other dominating factors were the transplantation of the European settlers to the continent so that Australian land could be dominated by the white race which again had economic basis for the British. All these factors appear devastating for the Aboriginals’ centuries’ old existence in the continent. Keywords: History, aboriginals, settlement, colonial acts, policies

Application of Pragmatism to Competency Based Curriculum (CBC) in Kenya: An Analysis of Basic Education Curriculum Framework

Globally the world is experiencing rapid changes economically, socially, with new demands setting in. It is therefore necessary for every country to reform education system to remain relevant and functional. Educational philosophies provide ideas that can be applied to make education instrumental. Pragmatism is one of such philosophy which has been used to advance reforms in education. This paper examines the concept of pragmatism in terms of aims, principles and theoretical bases in guiding curriculum reforms. The need for reforms has also been highlighted. The new education system in Kenya (CBC) has been presented in terms of mission and vision and how it relates to the Kenya blue print for economic development- vision 2030. Theoretical underpinnings for CBC have also been presented. Further the paper has related the principles of pragmatism to the CBC through a critical analysis of the Basic Education Curriculum Framework in Kenya to conceptualize how ideas of the philosophy have been reflected in the new curriculum. The paper concludes that, to make education meaning, prior experiences of learners must be exploited and learner engagement must take precedence in the teaching- learning process to develop them as empowered citizens. The philosophy has been applied to a great extent in the new curriculum. To fully actualized the new curriculum, the paper recommends that more funding be provided initiated from the budget making desk to cater for additional facilities, resources and teacher development.

RESEARCH STRUCTURE OF A STUDY ON MICRO FINANCE, FINANCIAL INCLUSION AND WOMEN EMPOWERMENT WITH REFERENCE TO SELECTED URBAN AREAS IN SRI POTTI SRIRAMULU NELLORE DISTRICT, ANDHRA PRADESH

Financial system of the country is backbone to the countrys growth. In the context of developing nations, a well-designed microfinance programme is seen as a successful institutional instrument for promoting socioeconomic development of economically disadvantaged sectors of society, particularly women. Women, in general, have difficulties obtaining institutional credit due to a lack of assets that may be used as security. Microfinance, as an alternate delivery method, focuses on women since women are more likely than males to be credit limited.The present paper is the blue print of the research entitled A study on micro finance, financial inclusion and women empowerment with reference to selected urban areas in Potti Sriramulu Nellore district, Andhra Pradesh.
