Teachers’ Union Demands and Prospects of Teachers in the Globalization Era
In Indonesian society, teacher has a unique position, beside as knowledge, perception, attitude, ehviour transferor also as a role model to the society. It is more than an evolutionary modernization; globalization has touched almost every aspects of life fantastically and jointly, shook every cultural foundations, roots and national defense. Together with family and society, teacher is an institution which tries to control them. In reality, teacher is expected to give his or her biggest effort compared to the other two. On the other hand, teacher burden felt harder from time to time in an artificial, economic oriented and marginalizing noble values society. Teacher is losing their prestige whereas teacher is also expected to be a multidimension person in this third millennium. Can the teacher fight for his or her right to live properly through a solid fight? Can the society accept the reality that as worker, teacher also has the right to build and become a member of a worker union? ILO Convention ratification four years ago showed that teacher is allowed to start his or her own worker union. Teacher’s Union must be a promoter to the development of teacher’s social economic status and professionalism and to push trade unionism to be a social movement.
Global paradox
And how this book will influence you to do better future? It will relate to how the readers will get the lessons that are coming. As known, commonly many people will believe that reading can be an entrance to enter the new perception. The perception will influence how you step you life. Even that is difficult enough; people with high sprit may not feel bored or give up realizing that concept. It's what global paradox will give the thoughts for you.
In Vivo Comparison of Synthetic Macroporous Filamentous and Sponge-like Skin Substitute Matrices Reveals Morphometric Features of the Foreign Body Reaction According to 3D Biomaterial Designs
Synthetic macroporous biomaterials are widely used in the field of skin tissue engineering to mimic membrane functions of the native dermis. Biomaterial designs can be subclassified with respect to their shape in fibrous designs, namely fibers, meshes or fleeces, respectively, and porous designs, such as sponges and foams. However, synthetic matrices often have limitations regarding unfavorable foreign body responses (FBRs). Severe FBRs can result in unfavorable disintegration and rejection of an implant, whereas mild FBRs can lead to an acceptable integration of a biomaterial. In this context, comparative in vivo studies of different three-dimensional (3D) matrix designs are rare. Especially, the differences regarding FBRs between synthetically derived filamentous fleeces and sponge-like constructs are unknown. In the present study, the FBRs on two 3D matrix designs were explored after 25 days of subcutaneous implantation in a porcine model. Cellular reactions were quantified histopathologically to investigate in which way the FBR is influenced by the biomaterial architecture. Our results show that FBR metrics (polymorph-nucleated cells and fibrotic reactions) were significantly affected according to the matrix designs. Our findings contribute to a better understanding of the 3D matrix tissue interactions and can be useful for future developments of synthetically derived skin substitute biomaterials.
