TL;DR: A case study is presented in which a widely used ITS authoring tool suite, CTAT/TutorShop, was modified so that tutors can be embedded in MOOCs.
Abstract: A key challenge in ITS research and development is to support tutoring at scale, for example by embedding tutors in MOOCs. An obstacle to at-scale deployment is that ITS architectures tend to be complex, not easily deployed in browsers without significant server-side processing, and not easily embedded in a learning management system (LMS). We present a case study in which a widely used ITS authoring tool suite, CTAT/TutorShop, was modified so that tutors can be embedded in MOOCs. Specifically, the inner loop (the example-tracing tutor engine) was moved to the client by reimplementing it in JavaScript, and the tutors were made compatible with the LTI e-learning standard. The feasibility of this general approach to ITS/MOOC integration was demonstrated with simple tutors in an edX MOOC “Data Analytics and Learning.”

TL;DR: Overall, PEI–MHNTs nanocomposite membranes could have great potential to improve antifouling, anti-biofouling and filtration properties.
Abstract: Polydopamine modified halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) were synthesised through a one step facile procedure and employed as a well dispersed hydrophilic additive to enhance the filtration properties of polyetherimide (PEI) membranes. The nanocomposite membranes were prepared by an immersion precipitation method with different amounts of modified HNTs (MHNTs) in the casting solution. The good dispersion of MHNTs throughout the membrane matrix was confirmed by elemental mapping analysis. The prepared nanocomposite membranes were extensively studied in terms of their porosity, morphology, membrane hydraulic resistance and hydrophilicity. The permeation experiments showed that the modified membranes exhibited higher water flux than a pristine PEI membrane. The antifouling and anti-biofouling behaviour of the modified membranes was investigated in detail. The results revealed that a membrane with a 3 wt% MHNT dosage showed a higher Fouling Resistance Ratio (FRR) of 74.5% with reversible membrane fouling of 64.3%. Moreover, the membrane showed excellent resistance to microbial growth on the membrane surface. The well performing membrane was subjected to heavy metal ion rejection. Results indicated that membranes had the capacity to adsorb Pb2+ and Cd2+. Overall, PEI–MHNTs nanocomposite membranes could have great potential to improve antifouling, anti-biofouling and filtration properties.

TL;DR: It was observed that the main cause of deterioration in water quality was due to the lack of proper sanitation, unprotected river sites and high anthropogenic activities.
Abstract: An attempt has been made to develop water quality index (WQI), using six water quality parameters Dissolved oxygen (DO), Biochemical oxygen Demand (BOD), Most Probable Number (MPN), Turbidity, Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and pH measured at eight different stations along the river basin. Rating curves were drawn based on the tolerance limits of inland waters and health point of view. Bhargava WQI method and Harmonic Mean WQI method were used to find overall WQI along the stretch of the river basin. Five point rating scale was used to classify water quality in each of the study areas. It was found that the water quality of Netravathi varied from Excellent to Marginal range by Bhargava WQI method and Excellent to Poor range by Harmonic Mean WQI method. It was observed that the impact of human activity was severe on most of the parameters. The MPN values exceeded the tolerable limits at almost all the stations. It was observed that the main cause of deterioration in water quality was due to the lack of proper sanitation, unprotected river sites and high anthropogenic activities.
