Emergence and Disappearance of an Immune Molecule, an Antimicrobial Lectin, in Basal Metazoa
2003
Sponges (phylum Porifera) represent the evolutionarily oldest metazoans that comprise already a complex immune system and are related to the crown taxa of the protostomians and the deuterostomians. Here, we demonstrate the existence of a tachylectin-related protein in the demosponge Suberites domuncula, termed Suberites lectin. The MAPK pathway was activated in response to lipopolysaccharide treatment of the three-dimensional cell aggregates, the primmorphs; this process was abolished by the monosaccharide D-GlcNAc. The cDNA encoding the S. domuncula lectin was identified and cloned; it comprises 238 amino acids (26 kDa) in the open reading frame. The deduced protein has one potential trans…
Exploring the collaborative synthesis of information during online reading
2019
Abstract This descriptive study sought to understand the complexities of integrative processing during collaborative online reading. Student pairs constructed a collaborative understanding while reading online information about a controversial issue by connecting, combining and organizing information that originated from prior knowledge, self-selected online texts, and discussions during an online inquiry task. Thirty-eight students from an upper secondary school in Finland worked in pairs to read online information and write an essay with the help of an argument graph tool. Primary data sources consisted of: prior knowledge; discussions; notes recorded with a graphic representational tool;…
Ārpusklases lasīšanas uzdevumi 8.klases skolēnu mudināšanai lasīt angļu valodā
2016
Diplomdarbs „Ārpusklases lasīšanas uzdevumi 8. klases skolēnu mudināšanai lasīt angļu valodā” tika izstrādāts ar mērķi izpētīt problēmu par skolēnu pamudināšanu lasīt angļu valodā. Tas bija nepieciešams, jo skolēni var gūt ievērojamus labumus no patstāvīgas lasīšanas, kļūstot par prasmīgākiem un pārliecinātākiem valodas lietotājiem. Tā kā mūsdienās pusaudži arvien vairāk pavada brīvo laiku pie datora vai televizora grāmatu lasīšanas vietā, diplomdarba mērķis bija izpētīt kā ārpusklases lasīšanas uzdevumu pielietošana mācību procesā var pamudināt skolēnus lasīt angļu valodā. Mērķa sasniegšanai kā pētījuma metode tika izvēlēts atsevišķa gadījuma pētījums. Divas 8. klases skolēnu grupas, kopum…
