Gamifikasi Dalam Kelas Bahasa Indonesia Bagi Penutur Asing (BIPA) Anak by Fendy Yogha Pratama, Vera Yuli Erviana, Iis Suwartini, Mixghan Norman Antono

“…Thematic data analysis revealed that gamification using Wordwall was implemented through five types of games: (1) Complete The Word, (2) The Hidden Words, (3) The Pacman Game, (4) Word Puzzles, and (5) Sentence Puzzles. Meanwhile, learners made four types of pronunciation errors: (1) sound addition, (2) sound omission, (3) sound alteration, and (4) code-switching. …”

Las visiones de Raúl Zurita y el prejuicio de lo sublime by Geneviève Fabry

“…To examine Zurita’s strategies (specially the association of poetry and land art) as expressions of the esthetics of sublime, as Kant, Lyotard and Saint Girons define it, permits to project a new light upon this most puzzling work and, at the same time, to determine more accurately what is at stake in the controversies it engenders (above all, consult the criticisms by Nelly Richard and Roberto Bolaño).…”

Staging Sedition despite Censorship: the Representation of the People on the Shakespearean Stage in 2 Henry VI by Delphine Lemonnier-Texier

“…Thanks to The Book of Sir Thomas More, there is proof that the Master of the Revels did censor scenes of popular sedition, and the presence of similar and yet apparently uncensored scenes in other Elizabethan plays is somewhat puzzling, even more so when these scenes of popular rebellion appear ambivalent, which is the case of the Jack Cade rebellion in Shakespeare’s 2 Henry VI. …”

Data popularity-based encrypted deduplication scheme without third-party servers by Guanxiong HA, Qiaowen JIA, Hang CHEN, Chunfu JIA

“…It is effective to balance data security and storage efficiency for setting different levels of security protection for data based on popularity in encrypted deduplication systems.Existing schemes all need introduce a trusted third-party for recording data popularity, while the third party is prone to a single point of failure and efficiency bottleneck.To address this problem, a popularity-based encrypted deduplication scheme without third-party servers was proposed, which accurately recorded the data popularity based on the Count-Min sketch algorithm and Merkle Puzzles protocol, and achieved encrypted deduplication of unpopular data through the sPAKE protocols performed among users.Security analysis and experimental evaluation show that the proposed scheme is secure and efficient.…”
