TL;DR: The authors used a concordance of feedback sheets to investigate the way tutors use institutional discourse in written feedback sheets on a part-time MA(Ed) and the functions performed by the written feedback.
Abstract: Current Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education guidelines highlight the necessity for institutional assessment to be clear and transparent. Whilst institutions spend much energy on making sure that criteria on which they assess work are published and clear, much of the feedback to students on different courses is discursive in nature and consists of both formative and summative assessment. Students also receive information about grades and criteria from a variety of institutional documents. This paper uses a concordance of feedback sheets to investigate the way that tutors use institutional discourse in written feedback sheets on a part-time MA(Ed) and the functions performed by the written feedback. The paper finds a high degree of congruence between the institutional and tutor corpora. Both corpora place considerable emphasis on academic conventions, yet this is not reflected in the criteria used for assessment.

TL;DR: The leaves of Lagerstroemia speciosa afforded a new natural product, 31-norlargerenol acetate, along with known compounds 24-methylenecycloartanol acetate and tinotufolins C, which was elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR and mass spectroscopy.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the state of water pollution in Vietnam as indicated by water quality parameters, total suspended solids and biological oxygen demand, with particular attention to the individual contribution of various economic sectors.
Abstract: Rapid economic growth and poor waste management have left Vietnam with severe water pollution problems. It is thus important to develop a model to evaluate the relationship between economic activities and water pollution to identify water pollution mitigation strategies within the context of economic development. Recent works have demonstrated the effectiveness of the input–output model in analyzing the interplay between the economy and the environment. To comprehensively understand this relationship, the behavior and trend of water pollution during a specified period should be investigated on. The interaction of different economic sectors and its impacts on water pollution should also be analyzed. For the Vietnamese economy, such aspects have not been fully addressed in previous studies. This work thus examines the state of water pollution in Vietnam as indicated by water quality parameters, total suspended solids and biological oxygen demand, with particular attention to the individual contribution of various economic sectors. The period between the years 2000 and 2011 is taken into account in this work. Environmentally extended input–output analysis coupled with vertical integrated coefficient method is used to analyze the interindustry linkages of sectors and to classify sector role as either key sector or pollution puller or pusher. The pollution trend reveals the tremendous increase in total suspended solids from 345,000 tonnes in 2000 to 1,199,000 tonnes in 2011, while the total biological oxygen demand increased from 43,400 tonnes in 2000 to 123,000 tonnes in 2011. Results show that the basic metals industry was the major contributor of total suspended solids, while the food, beverage and tobacco and agriculture, fishery and forestry sectors contributed most to the biological oxygen demand. The results of sectoral linkage evaluation highlight that food, beverage and tobacco and agriculture, fishery and forestry sectors were key sectors for both water quality parameters. These results provide environmental managers and policy maker insights on how to prioritize economic sectors to achieve emission reduction targets.
