2016 PhysicsBowl Results Dear Physics Teachers, Thank you for having your students participate in this year’s AAPT PHYSICSBOWL contest. This year there were more than 6400 students participating from almost 250 schools from the United States, Canada, Kuwait, Mexico, South Africa, the Republic of Korea, and the United Kingdom, as well as almost 300 schools participating from China! With the addition of the large number of Chinese schools, the contest is almost in two parts with Regions 01 – 14 competing for prizes from AAPT while ASDAN China is coordinating the contest in China. As a result, for simplicity of trying to read the long lists, there are three files: the list of winners in Regions 01 – 14, the list of winners in Regions 15 – 19, and a list of the top students/teams from all regions in both divisions! Instructors from regions 01 – 14 can obtain the scores of their students from the AAPT website and that link will be provided to you in an email from the national office. Please realize that we were able to retrieve some scores that were disqualified for improperly recording the required information, but this was done after-the-fact. If the information was not encoded correctly, the student was immediately disqualified from winning prizes even though we may be able to link that student to your code now. Some students provided no codes, the wrong regions, no name, just a last name, etc. There are a lot of records and we cannot go back and fill in missing information. While it is unfortunate to disqualify anyone, these are the rules of the contest. Sadly, some very high scores were disqualified. If you still are missing a student’s score… please email [email protected] with student information (CEEB, teacher codes, etc.) and we can try to find the information. Information is being provided to ASDAN China to find scores from regions 15 – 19. We will, as always, be trying to improve the contest and we look forward to your participation in 2017. The statistics from this year’s contest are shown below. Division 1 had an average score of . Statistically, the easiest question was #1 ( correct) while the most difficult question was #37 ( correct). Division 2 had an average score of . Statistically, the easiest question was #11 ( correct) while the most difficult question was #49 ( correct). The production of a 40 question contest that has a small percentage of very high scores while still not being overly difficult to discourage the majority of students is a very challenging task. The averages are higher than last year by more than 2 correct answers in Division 1 and almost 3.5 correct answers in Division 2. Statistics for exam Average Score for Division 1 = 16.3 with a standard deviation of 5.9 Average Score for Division 2 = 16.4 with a standard deviation of 5.9 Figure 1. Division 1... # students vs. Score Figure 2. Division 2.... # students vs. Score We look forward to having you participate in next year’s contest… and please let your colleagues at schools near you know about the contest!

Introduction. The Javanese script, or aksara Jawa, is used for writing the Javanese language, the native language of one of the peoples of Java, known locally as basa Jawa. It is a descendent of the ancient Brahmi script of India, and so has many similarities with modern scripts of South Asia and Southeast Asia which are also members of that family. The Javanese script is also used for writing Sanskrit, Jawa Kuna (a kind of Sanskritized Javanese), and Kawi, as well as the Sundanese language, also spoken on the island of Java, and the Sasak language, spoken on the island of Lombok. Javanese script was in current use in Java until about 1945; in 1928 Bahasa Indonesia was made the national language of Indonesia and its influence eclipsed that of other languages and their scripts. Traditional Javanese texts are written on palm leaves; books of these bound together are called lontar, a word which derives from ron ‘leaf’ and tal ‘palm’. 2.1. Consonant letters. Consonants have an inherent -a vowel sound. Consonants combine with following consonants in the usual Brahmic fashion: the inherent vowel is “killed” by the PANGKON, and the follow- ing consonant is subjoined or postfixed, often with a change in shape: §£ ndha = § NA + @¿ PANGKON + £ DA-MAHAPRANA; üù n.

    M. Ricklefs An inventory of the Javanese manuscript collection in the British Museum In: Bijdragen tot de Taal-, Land- en Volkenkunde 125 (1969), no: 2, Leiden, 241-262 This PDF-file was downloaded from http://www.kitlv-journals.nl Downloaded from Brill.com09/29/2021 11:29:04AM via free access AN INVENTORY OF THE JAVANESE MANUSCRIPT COLLECTION IN THE BRITISH MUSEUM* he collection of Javanese manuscripts in the British Museum, London, although small by comparison with collections in THolland and Indonesia, is nevertheless of considerable importance. The Crawfurd collection, forming the bulk of the manuscripts, provides a picture of the types of literature being written in Central Java in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, a period which Dr. Pigeaud has described as a Literary Renaissance.1 Because they were acquired by John Crawfurd during his residence as an official of the British administration on Java, 1811-1815, these manuscripts have a convenient terminus ad quem with regard to composition. A large number of the items are dated, a further convenience to the research worker, and the dates are seen to cluster in the four decades between AD 1775 and AD 1815. A number of the texts were originally obtained from Pakualam I, who was installed as an independent Prince by the British admini- stration. Some of the manuscripts are specifically said to have come from him (e.g. Add. 12281 and 12337), and a statement in a Leiden University Bah ad from the Pakualaman suggests many other volumes in Crawfurd's collection also derive from this source: Tuwan Mister [Crawfurd] asked to be instructed in adat law, with examples of the Javanese usage.

Academic Editors: Jun Liu, Gang Liu and This Rutishauser Received: 1 February 2017; Accepted: 4 May 2017; Published: 8 May 2017 Abstract: Ice, snow, and rime are wonders of the cold season in an alpine climate zone and climate landscape. With its pure, spectacular, and magical features, these regions attract numerous tourists. Ice and snow landscapes can provide not only visually-stimulating experiences for people, but also opportunities for outdoor play and movement. In China, ice and snow tourism is a new type of recreation; however, the establishment of snow and ice in relation to the suitability of the surrounding has not been clearly expressed. Based on multi-source data, such as tourism, weather, and traffic data, this paper employs the Delphi-analytic hierarchy process (AHP) evaluation method and a spatial analysis method to study the spatial differences of snow and ice tourism suitability in China. China’s ice and snow tourism is located in the latitude from 35◦N to 53.33◦N and latitude 41.5◦N to 45◦N and longitude 82◦E to 90◦E, with the main focus on latitude and terrain factors.

    Niti Passages of the Old. Javanese Ramayaia Kakawin

    ( 10 ) Journal of Indian and Buddhist Studies Vol. 44, No.2, March 1996 Niti Passages of the Old . Javanese Ramayaia Kakawin Mitsuru ANDO 1 The Ramayana kakawin (RYK hereafter), an Old Javaneses poem of the well-known Rama story, is the oldest literary work extant in the Old Javanese language. Since H. Kern published its romanized edition and Dutch translation as early as 1900, scholars seem to have paid their academic attention mainly to the Sanskrit sources of the text. It is Hooykaas who came to the conclusion that the poet of the RYK based his kakawin not on Valmiki's Ramayana but on Bhatti's Rava.nava- dha or Bhattikaya. According to Hooykaas's comprehensive and intensive examination of the story and poetical elements of the RYK (Hooykaas 1955; 1958), the poet related the famous Rama story in his kakawin while at the same time weaving a variety of poetical embellishments, the technique typical of the Bhattikavya. Hooykaas also pointed out that the poet of the RYK left his model from Canto 17 onward, its reason being unrevealed yet. Although there seems almost nothing to be added to Hooykaas's argu- ments with regard to the main source of the RYK, it should be-worth noting that he once invited the collaboration of Sanskrit scholars to trace the source of didactic passages found in the RYK. In the , RYK, two sets of so-called raja-niti passages are interpolated in the main framework of the Rama story. One appears in the scene where Rama in- structs his younger brother Bharata how to conduct himself as a king (RYK 3.53-84).

    Concurrent Session 1 并行会议一 Research on West-East Reciprocal Learning in Classroom & Curriculum 课堂与课程设置中的互惠学习 Concurrent 1A: Students’ Mathematics Learning 分组会议 1A： 数学学习 Juan Yu Hubei University of Education, China A Research on Learning Difficulties and Coping Strategies in Mathematics for Taiwan and Mainland Middle School Students This is a reciprocal learning research from Taiwan to solve Mathematics learning difficulties for mainland students in China. Based on the learning difficulties and the corresponding coping strategies in mathematics for middle-school students in Taiwan and analyzed the variations with different demographic variables. The research was conducted through questionnaire survey totally 1,020 middle school students participated in the survey, and 999 valid questionnaires were collected. The major findings of research are as follows: 1. The level of learning difficulties of mathematics for students of middle schools was close to mediocre level. The students’ scores on “personal factors” respond the highest, but students’ scores on “school factors” respond the lowest. 2. There were significant differences in learning difficulties of mathematics of middle school students with different demographic variables. 3. When students encounter learning difficulties in mathematics, they adopt “active coping” as coping strategy, followed by “seeking supports” and “emotional coping”; however, “avoidance” is adopted less than others. 4. There were significant differences in the coping strategies used by the students who have learning difficulties in math with different demographic variables. 5. Learning difficulties and coping strategies have significant correlation. The research findings show the overall learning difficulties of middle school students is medium (mean= 2.42).
