Teaching Practices for DevOps Concepts
<p>DevOps represents a set of practices that integrate software development and IT operation, now widely adopted in the software industry. It involves implementing various vital concepts, such as a culture of collaboration, continuous delivery, and infrastructure as code. From an educational perspective, it is essential to understand if existing courses teach DevOps fundamental concepts. This work presents a study that analyzes how DevOps courses address DevOps concepts in their teaching methodologies. We analyzed 15 courses available on GitHub by 38 DevOps concepts (e.g., continuous delivery) from Leite et al. Our results show a panorama of teaching over DevOps concepts. The analyses also identified teaching activities like lectures and projects. These results can guide educators as a reference for course improvements. The results also suggest several opportunities for researchers to improve DevOps teaching.<br> </p>

Alternative combinations of tillage practices and crop rotations can foster earthworm density and bioturbation
<p><span>Earthworms, which contribute to important soil functions, suffer from intensive agriculture. Their response depends among other things on the earthworm ecological group (anecic, endogeic, epigeic) and the combination of the applied farming practices. To advice on methodological adaptations that enhance earthworm-mediated soil functions, effects of different practices on earthworms need to be studied in concert. We investigated the effects of tillage intensity (conventional, reduced, no tillage) and crop rotation diversity (simple = wheat, barley; diverse = wheat, peas, oil seed rape) on earthworm density and community composition in a Swedish long-term experiment. Furthermore, we calculated annual earthworm bioturbation to quantify the effects of farming practices on earthworm functions. Total earthworm densities did not vary between the different tillage intensities, but were on average 58% higher in the diverse than in the simple crop rotation. The pattern was mainly due to the response of the most abundant endogeic earthworms, which were not affected by tillage intensity, but were nearly two times more abundant in the diverse than in the simple crop rotation. Densities of anecic earthworms were 17 times higher under no tillage than conventional tillage. Anecic earthworms also benefitted from a diversified crop rotation, but the response depended on tillage intensity. The level of bioturbation reflected the response of anecic earthworms, and was more than</span><span> four times higher under no tillage, 549 g dw m -2 year -1, than under conventional tillage. We conclude that highest earthworm bioturbation is best achieved with no tillage. However, earthworm densities and potentially bioturbation can be increased also by a diversified crop rotation, when reducing tillage intensity is not feasible.</span></p>
Comparison of behavioural tendencies between 'dangerous dogs' and other domestic dog breeds – evolutionary context and practical implications
<p>Aggressive behaviour by dogs is a considerable social problem, but the ability to predict which individuals may have increased aggressive tendencies is very limited, restricting the development of efficient preventive measures. There is a common perception that certain breeds are more likely to exhibit aggressive behaviour, which has contributed to the introduction of breed-specific legislation. The rationale for such legislation explicitly assumes high heritability of this trait while also implying relatively little variation within breeds; these assumptions are largely untested. We compared behavioural tendencies between 8 breeds that are subject to legislation in at least one country and 17 breeds that are not subject to legislation using two validated psychometric tools: the Dog Impulsivity Assessment Scale (DIAS), which scores elements of impulsivity, including a tendency for aggressive behaviour, and Positive and Negative Activation Scale (PANAS), which scores sensitivity to positive and negative stimuli (which may trigger aggressive responses). We found that the two groups of breeds do not differ significantly in the specific DIAS factor relating to aggressive behaviour, "Aggression Threshold and Response to Novelty", or any other DIAS and PANAS factors. We found large variation in all behavioural tendencies measured by both psychometric scales within both groups and within each breed studied. Taken together, our findings indicate that breed alone is not a reliable predictor of individual behavioural tendencies, including those related to aggression, and therefore breed-specific legislation is unlikely to be an effective instrument for reducing risk.</p>

Quantitative and qualitative inventories of end-of life practices for AP
<p><span>A special protocol has been developed for the collection of samples of both virgin AP and APW as part of subtask 1.2.1. This protocol specifically targets farms that use various AP products and aims to study the degradation of AP during their use in open field or internal crop protection conditions.</span></p> <p><span>Farmers were requested to provide samples of each AP category used during the cultivation period, including mulching film, direct cover, irrigation tape (if used for one season), twines, clips, somatization films, traps for insects etc. Virgin AP samples were collected prior to their application in the field while used AP (APW) samples were collected at the end of the cultivation season regardless of the subsequent EoL management practices. In cases where AP and APW had a lifetime exceeding one cultivation period, farmers were contacted to determine if they could provide the requested samples within the project duration. </span></p>
