“Catch me if you can”: Learning to Play in a Jungle of Expectations
No full textThis Global Voice chapter provides a Malaysian perspective on the Playful University, exploring how play is understood and utilised in Borneo, along with the challenges faced by Southeast Asian higher education institutions in reconciling Western-dominated narratives with local values. The chapter also highlights Malaysia's distance degree, where universities are still considered the epitome of education. The chapter argues that scholars from the region often modify their thinking to conform to community expectations and university politics upon returning from academic pursuits abroad. Against this backdrop, the chapter examines the idea of a playful university in Borneo, where oral tradition and indigenous games are dominant. Playfulness is a safe approach to navigating differences and gaps in learners' cultural, linguistic, and socioeconomic backgrounds. The author suggests incorporating playfulness in pedagogy at the university must consider gender roles with care due to deeply rooted societal expectations for male leadership and authority
The bacterial catalase from filarial DNA preparations derives from common pseudomonad contaminants and not from Wolbachia endosymbionts
No full textWolbachia are obligatory endosymbionts in many species of filarial nematodes. Certain bacterial molecules induce antibody responses in mammalian hosts infected with filariae, while others activate inflammatory responses that contribute to pathology. These findings, coupled with antibiotic studies demonstrating the dependence of filarial embryogenesis on the presence of Wolbachia, have intensified research on Wolbachia-nematode interactions, and the effects of Wolbachia molecules on the mammalian immune system. By amplification and sequencing of 16S rDNA and catalase sequences, we show that filarial DNA samples prepared from nematodes collected under typical conditions are frequently contaminated with Pseudomonas DNA. Analysis of a published DNA fragment containing a catalase attributed to the Wolbachia of Onchocerca volvulus showed it to be most like Pseudomonas, both in terms of sequence similarity and genomic organization. Additionally, there was no obvious catalase in either of two available Wolbachia genome sequences. Contamination of filarial DNA with bacterial sequences other than Wolbachia can complicate studies of the role of these symbionts in filarial biology
