A Skripsi of Department of English Education, Faculty of Educational Sciences, State Islamic University Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta, 2020. Advisor I : Drs. Syauki, M.Pd. Advisor II : Yenny Rahmawati, M.Ed. Keywords : Silent Movie, Larva Cartoon, Narrative Text, Writing Ability The objective of the research was to know the implementation of silent movie “Larva” in improving students’ writing narrative text. The subject of this research was X MIA students of MA Daarul Hikmah consisted of 21 students. In conducting this research, the writer used classroom action research design by Kurt Lewin and was implemented in two cycles where the phases in every cycle consisted of; planning, acting, observing, and reflecting. The data were gotten through qualitative methods that was supported by the students’ writing tests results. To collect the qualitative data, the instruments used were interview guidelines and the observation checklist. The interview was addressed to the students and the English teacher, meanwhile the observation was done by the English teacher using the observation checklist. As the observer, she observed the class condition, students’ responses, and the teacher’s performance in the teaching learning process. Besides that, it had been also conducted three tests, which was pre- test, post-test 1, and post-test 2 to support the qualitative data. After analysing and evaluating the data gotten, the results were; the interview results showed the positive response and their excitement on the silent movie “Larva” as the media of teaching and learning writing narrative text. Besides, the result of observation checklist showed that there was improvement on students’ teaching learning process where the students had participated and communicated well in the individual learning or even group work. Besides, they were also more excited on the learning. The data gotten from the interview guidelines and the observation checklist were supported by the result of students’ writing tests. The KKM of the English lesson was 74. Here, the result of pre- test showed that students who had reached the KKM were 23.80% or 5 students with the mean score was 65.90. On the post-test 1, the number of students who had reached the KKM was increased becoming 42.85% or 9 students with the mean score was 72.09. Meanwhile on the post-test 2, the number of students who had reached the KKM was 76.19% or 16 students with the mean score was 76.28. In short, it could be concluded that students’ writing ability of narrative text could improve through silent movie “Larva”. iv ABSTRAK Ayu Fitri Anjani (11150140000062).

    IT’S ALL GEEK TO ME: TRANSLATING NAMES OF INSECTARIUM ARTHROPODS Prof. J. Phineas Michaelson, O.M.P. U.S. Biological and Geological Survey of the Territories Central Post Office, Denver City, Colorado Territory [or Year 2016 c/o Kallima Consultants, Inc., PO Box 33084, Northglenn, CO 80233-0084] ABSTRACT Kids today! Why don’t they know the basics of Greek and Latin? Either they don’t pay attention in class, or in many cases schools just don’t teach these classic languages of science anymore. For those who are Latin and Greek-challenged, noted (fictional) Victorian entomologist and explorer, Prof. J. Phineas Michaelson, will present English translations of the scientific names that have been given to some of the popular common arthropods available for public exhibits. This paper will explore how species get their names, as well as a brief look at some of the naturalists that named them. INTRODUCTION Our education system just isn’t what it used to be. Classic languages such as Latin and Greek are no longer a part of standard curriculum. Unfortunately, this puts modern students of science at somewhat of a disadvantage compared to our predecessors when it comes to scientific names. In the insectarium world, Latin and Greek names are used for the arthropods that we display, but for most young entomologists, these words are just a challenge to pronounce and lack meaning. Working with arthropods, we all know that Entomology is the study of these animals. Sounding similar but totally different, Etymology is the study of the origin of words, and the history of word meaning.

  • Insect Egg Size and Shape Evolve with Ecology but Not Developmental Rate Samuel H
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1302-4 Insect egg size and shape evolve with ecology but not developmental rate Samuel H. Church1,4*, Seth Donoughe1,3,4, Bruno A. S. de Medeiros1 & Cassandra G. Extavour1,2* Over the course of evolution, organism size has diversified markedly. Changes in size are thought to have occurred because of developmental, morphological and/or ecological pressures. To perform phylogenetic tests of the potential effects of these pressures, here we generated a dataset of more than ten thousand descriptions of insect eggs, and combined these with genetic and life-history datasets. We show that, across eight orders of magnitude of variation in egg volume, the relationship between size and shape itself evolves, such that previously predicted global patterns of scaling do not adequately explain the diversity in egg shapes. We show that egg size is not correlated with developmental rate and that, for many insects, egg size is not correlated with adult body size. Instead, we find that the evolution of parasitoidism and aquatic oviposition help to explain the diversification in the size and shape of insect eggs. Our study suggests that where eggs are laid, rather than universal allometric constants, underlies the evolution of insect egg size and shape. Size is a fundamental factor in many biological processes. The size of an 526 families and every currently described extant hexapod order24 organism may affect interactions both with other organisms and with (Fig. 1a and Supplementary Fig. 1). We combined this dataset with the environment1,2, it scales with features of morphology and physi- backbone hexapod phylogenies25,26 that we enriched to include taxa ology3, and larger animals often have higher fitness4.

Because of its 51 INDEX OF ADVERTISERS niche specificity, the Salt Creek tiger beetle has evolved a slower than usual lifecycle when compared to other members of the Cicindela genus. The adult beetles emerge in the sum- 52 CALENDAR mer and only live for a few weeks. In their short adult stage, they are capable of laying hundreds of eggs.

  • Atlas of Yorkshire Coleoptera (Vcs 61-65) Part 9 – Derodontoidea, Bostrichoidea and Lymexyloidea
    Atlas of Yorkshire Coleoptera (VCs 61-65) Part 9 – Derodontoidea, Bostrichoidea and Lymexyloidea Introduction This section of the atlas deals with the Superfamilies Derodontoidea, Bostrichoidea and Lymexyloidea, a total of 104 species, of which there are 57 recorded in Yorkshire. Each species in the database is considered and in each case a distribution map representing records on the database (at 1/10/2017) is presented. The number of records on the database for each species is given in the account in the form (a,b,c,d,e) where 'a' to 'e' are the number of records from VC61 to VC65 respectively. These figures include undated records (see comment on undated records in the paragraph below on mapping). As a recorder, I shall continue to use the vice-county recording system, as the county is thereby divided up into manageable, roughly equal, areas for recording purposes. For an explanation of the vice-county recording system, under a system devised in Watson (1883) and subsequently documented by Dandy (1969), Britain was divided into convenient recording areas ("vice-counties"). Thus Yorkshire was divided into vice-counties numbered 61 to 65 inclusive, and notwithstanding fairly recent county boundary reorganisations and changes, the vice-county system remains a constant and convenient one for recording purposes; in the text, reference to “Yorkshire” implies VC61 to VC65 ignoring modern boundary changes. For some species there are many records, and for others only one or two. In cases where there are five records or less full details of the known records are given. Many common species have quite a high proportion of recent records.
