Authors: Chijioke Nwachukwu Martin , C Ozobialu Benedicta, , Peretomode Ebitimi , Chibuzo Nwosu Joseph
Published: January 2025

This study evaluates student participation in field and laboratory components of geoscience and environmental education courses in Southeast Nigeria. Given the critical role of experiential learning in geoscience education, this research aims to assess how effectively students engage with hands-on activities that enhance their understanding of geological and environmental processes. The evaluation involved a mixed-methods approach, incorporating quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews with students and instructors across multiple institutions. Key metrics included attendance, active participation, and student perceptions of the relevance of field and laboratory experiences to their academic and professional aspirations. Findings indicate that while students demonstrate high levels of enthusiasm and engagement during field excursions, participation in laboratory sessions is often limited due to resource constraints and logistical challenges. Moreover, students reported that field experiences significantly enhanced their practical skills and contextual understanding of theoretical concepts, whereas laboratory activities were sometimes perceived as less impactful. The study highlights the need for improved resources and infrastructure to foster deeper engagement in laboratory settings and underscores the importance of integrating field-based learning into the geoscience curriculum to better prepare students for future careers in environmental science and related fields. Recommendations for enhancing student participation and overall educational outcomes are provided, including the development of partnerships with local industries and environmental organizations to create more immersive learning opportunities.

Background: Hypertension is a major cardiovascular risk factor, yet its control remains a global challenge. Effective management, through adherence to antihypertensive medications and lifestyle modifications, can significantly reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to explore factors influencing treatment compliance among hypertensive patients using the Health Belief Model (HBM) framework. Objective: The study sought to assess treatment compliance among hypertensive patients and identify the influence of sociodemographic factors and HBM variables on adherence to antihypertensive therapy. Methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted at Dhaka Medical College Hospital from January to July 2014, involving 200 hypertensive patients. Participants were selected using simple random sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using SPSS. Bivariate analyses (Chi-square and Pearson correlation) and multivariate linear regression were performed, with statistical significance set at P ≤ 0.05. Results: The mean age of participants was 56.3 (±13.1) years, with 56% showing treatment compliance. Among the participants, 56.5% were female, and 43.5% were male. Most had at least primary education, and 33% had no formal education. Regarding employment, 55.5% were unemployed. The bivariate analysis revealed significant associations between treatment compliance and HBM variables: perceived susceptibility, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, and cues to action. However, perceived severity did not show a significant association. Multivariate analysis indicated that perceived barriers were the strongest predictor of treatment compliance. Conclusion: The study found suboptimal treatment compliance among hypertensive patients, with perceived barriers being the most significant factor influencing adherence. Healthcare providers should emphasize health education on the lifelong need for antihypertensive treatment, and policies promoting free or subsidized medication could help improve compliance.

Authors: Rastono Adi , Muzadi Masrur
Published: January 2025

Tuban Regency is a major center for cayenne pepper production, but it is currently experiencing a decline in production due to the shrinking productive land area. As a result, farmers are opening new land in forest areas dominated by alkaline alfisol soil that lacks phosphorus elements. This study investigates the impact of biological agents Bacillus subtilis and CMA on the growth of cayenne pepper plants in alfisol soil. The study utilized a randomized block design with 8 treatments and 3 replications, resulting in a total of 24 beds: A0 (Control); A1 (SP-36); A2 (Bacillus subtilis); A3 (CMA); A4 (SP-36 + Bacillus subtilis); A5 (SP-36 + CMA); A6 (Bacillus subtilis + CMA); A7 (SP-36 + Bacillus subtilis + CMA). Plant growth measurements included dry weight, net assimilation rate, and crop growth rate (CGR). The research findings indicate that the combination of biological agents Bacillus subtilis and CMA in the A7 treatment (SP-36 + Bacillus subtilis + CMA) had the most significant impact on the growth of cayenne pepper plants across all parameters. This was confirmed by the results of the BNT test, which showed improvements in dry weight (23.253 grams), net assimilation rate (2.7950), and crop growth rate (9.790).

Authors: Conte Eneida Maria Troller
Published: January 2025

O estudo analisa a questão da terceira idade no contexto atual da sociedade do Oeste do Paraná, refletindo sobre o papel social, as condições de vida e as necessidades dos idosos, além de problematizar os desafios enfrentados em aspectos como saúde, participação social e integração cultural. Baseado no texto de Hugo Rodolfo Lovisolo, o estudo destaca que o aumento da população idosa demanda atenção especial em políticas públicas e sociais. Questões como o respeito à dignidade, o poder eleitoral e a necessidade de saúde, lazer e educação são analisadas sob a ótica das mudanças demográficas e sociais. As dificuldades enfrentadas pelos idosos de baixa renda contrastam com a atenção voltada àqueles com maior poder aquisitivo. A pesquisa também aborda iniciativas institucionais, como as Universidades Abertas à Terceira Idade, e a expansão de produtos e serviços voltados a essa faixa etária. Destaca-se ainda o papel da afetividade, integração social e atividades recreativas como fatores essenciais para a qualidade de vida dos idosos. O envelhecimento populacional é um desafio que exige transformação social e cultural. O estudo enfatiza a importância de compreender a terceira idade como uma fase de oportunidades e não como um problema. O respeito à autonomia e à independência dos idosos deve ser promovido, enquanto políticas públicas inclusivas e ações comunitárias são necessárias para melhorar a qualidade de vida dessa população.

O debate conceitual sobre saúde e doença: contribuições para a educação física
Authors: Bagrichevsky Marcos , Teixeira Bruna , Estevão Adriana
Published: January 2025

Partimos da análise de duas obras de referência da Saúde Coletiva, “A doença” de Giovanni Berlinguer (1988) e “O que é saúde?” de Naomar de Almeida-Filho (2011), para tentar mostrar a contribuição diferenciada que tais trabalhos desenvolvem em relação à riqueza de interpretações que ‘saúde’ e ‘doença’ podem comportar – para além do olhar biomédico. Foram abordadas categorias explicativas em destaque nessas obras, que permitem dialogar mais contextualmente com questões da vida cotidiana. Nesse sentido, a incorporação de problematizações conceituais afins pode trazer aportes relevantes à Educação Física, sobretudo, em ter¬mos de sua inserção nas esferas dos serviços públicos de saúde.

Authors: Montenegro Gustavo Maneschy , Fernandes Vera Lúcia da Costa
Published: January 2025

O estudo objetivou analisar o discurso dos professores da disciplina “Estudos do Lazer” do curso de Educação Física da Universidade do Estado do Pará-UEPA. Metodologia: utilizamos entrevista semi-estruturada seguida de análise do discurso. Os sujeitos da pesquisa foram quatro professores que a ministraram durante no ano de 2009. O Problema: Como contribuir para uma formação qualitativa na disciplina “Estudos do Lazer” a partir da análise do discurso dos professores no curso de Educação Física da UEPA? Resultados: A formação em Educação Física voltada ao campo de atuação do lazer ocorre por meio de uma prática pedagógica investigativa sob as bases de ensino PROJETO, que se fundamenta na indissociabilidade entre ensino-pesquisa e extensão. Observamos que nem todos os professores reconhecem essa prática pedagógica PROJETO que é desenvolvida como norteadora da disciplina, percebendo-se a necessidade de consolidar essa ação, embora exista uma compreensão em comum entre eles, entendendo o lazer como um direito social.

Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menggali nilai-nilai perdamaian yang terkandung dalam saloka Jawa, dengan fokus khusus pada internalisasi nilai-nilai saloka ke dalam tuntunan perdamaian. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian dengan pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif. Data dalam penelitian dibagi menjadi data primer, sekunder, dan tersier. Data primer dalam penelitian ini adalah buku teks puisi dan peribahasa Jawa karya Mardiwarsito (1983) dan buku makna ungkapan bahasa Jawa karya Ismawati (2019). Berdasarkan hasil analisis data, terdapat beberapa saloka yang menjunjung tinggi prinsip kerukunan, saling menghormati, dan perdamaian, yaitu saloka jembar segarane, menang tanpa ngasorake, Crah Agawe Bubrah Rukun Agawe Santosa, dan Tepo Seliro. Pembinaan perdamaian berbasis kearifan lokal dapat dilakukan secara klasikal atau kelompok dengan mengadopsi prosedur pendidikan perdamaian yang meliputi tahapan rasional model konseling perdamaian, menggali akar penyebab kekerasan dan agresi, melakukan refleksi terhadap fenomena kekerasan dari sudut pandang budaya, mengajarkan perdamaian. nilai-nilai yang terkandung dalam peribahasa jawa dan saloka sebagai alternatif pemecahan masalah, mencari berbagai bentuk kekerasan dan menghilangkannya, serta mengevaluasi dan menindak lanjuti pikiran, perasaan, dan perilaku yang damai. Konselor dapat melatih individu untuk berperilaku damai baik dalam bentuk verbal maupun nonverbal. Ketika seseorang dapat mempraktikkan perilaku damai, maka ia dapat menekan aspek-aspek agresivitas yang meliputi fisik, verbal, kemarahan, dan kebencian.
Komik Toleransi sebagai Media Edukasi dan Dakwah untuk Menangkal Radikalisme di Indonesia: Telaah Pustaka
Authors: Maria Ulfa  , Gozali Mukhtar , Abshar Ulil , Sugara Robi
Published: January 2025

Penelitian ini merupakan telaah pustaka (literature review) yang mengkaji bagaimana komik yang bertema toleransi digunakan sebagai media edukasi dan dakwah untuk  menangkal radikalisme di Indonesia berdasarkan berbagai penelitian sebelumnya yang terkait. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif melalui kajian telaah pustaka non-sistematis (narrative review/classical literature review) dengan cara mensintesis, menganalisis, dan mengevaluasi penelitian terdahulu dari sejumlah artikel jurnal terkini yang terkait dengan topik penelitian dalam bentuk tinjauan yang komprehensif dan terstruktur dengan baik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa komik yang membahas materi toleransi dapat digunakan sebagai media edukasi dan dakwah untuk menangkal radikalisme di Indonesia khususnya untuk kalangan generasi muda. Komik bertema toleransi dapat menangkal radikalisme karena di antara materinya mencakup tentang kepedulian sosial, menghargai keberagaman, dan konsekwensi intoleransi yang dalam konteks masyarakat Indonesia yang beragam dapat membantu untuk mewujudkan kehidupan keberagaman yang harmonis dan damai di Indonesia dan mencegah disintegrasi bangsa, konflik, aksi kekerasan, serta pencegahan radikalisme. Selain itu materi toleransi dan kaitannya untuk pencegahan radikalisme dianggap efektif diajarkan melalui komik karena sifatnya yang menghibur, menarik, dan mudah dipahami kalangan generasi muda. Pada akhirnya, berbagai penelitian terdahulu yang membahas komik yang terkait dengan toleransi dan radikalisme di Indonesia secara khusus jumlahnya masih terbatas, sedangkan di sisi lain sudah cukup banyak komik Indonesia yang membahas tema terkait toleransi dan radikalisme namun belum dikaji lebih lanjut. Tinjauan pustaka ini penting sebagai landasan bagi studi masa depan terkait penggunaan komik bertema toleransi untuk mencegah radikalisme di kalangan anak-anak pelajar Indonesia.
