Reviews and Creative Seminars of Amateur Artists in Soviet Cultural Policy
Authors: SINELNIKOVA Tatyana A.
Published: November 2024

Amateur creativity is a product of Soviet cultural policy aimed at replacing traditional everyday creative practices with controlled and institutionalized leisure. The organization of leisure was in many ways a new phenomenon that developed in the USSR as a result of housing, pension and socio-economic reforms. Work with amateur artists in the USSR was connected, first of all, with all-Union amateur performance shows. The organizer of the shows was the Ministry of Culture, the responsibilities for holding them were distributed between the Union of Artists and the All-Union House of Folk Art. Gradually, a three-stage form of holding reviews emerged, including the regional, zonal and final stages. At the initial stage, a search and registration of non-professional creators took place through a network of Houses of Folk Art. Then the artists could be prepared to participate in the show and were encouraged by trips to a creative seminar. At the zonal level, members of the review commission selected works for display at the final exhibition in Moscow. Most often, a catalog was published for the All-Union Exhibition of Amateur Artists. After its completion, the works remained in the temporary exhibition fund of the House of Folk Art as part of traveling exhibitions, and after two years they were returned to the owners. The article analyzes archival materials of the State Russian House named after V.D. Polenov and the Russian State Archive of Literature and Art, some documents were introduced into scientific circulation for the first time. The peculiarity of the historical study of this subject is that the products of amateur creativity were not considered as valuable (the activity itself, the increase in the number of participants in exhibitions, members of associations, etc., were significant). This explains the lack of information about the mechanisms of working with this area of creativity. Gradually, art historians identified naive art in amateur fine art as a direction that has independent high artistic value; most of the studies of domestic art historians are devoted to it. The works of amateur artists are a reflection of the worldview of their era, part of the culture of everyday life; these images reflect the worldview of the rural and urban intelligentsia of the USSR.

Authors: Rehman Zia Ur , Aurangzeb Wajeeha , Saeed Rubana
Published: November 2024

This study aimed to explore the technology integration competencies of university teachers with reference to the Substitution, Augmentation, Modification and Redefinition (SAMR) model. The objectives of the study were (i) to explore the motivation level, (ii) to investigate the inspiration level, and (iii) to diagnose the retention level of Pakistani teachers in adopting the SAMR model for effective blended learning practices. The research context included a random selection of 340 teachers from four faculties of two public sector universities in Punjab, Pakistan. The mixed method approach was used to obtain and evaluate the study data. Both quantitative and qualitative approaches were used for data collection, and a self-constructed questionnaire and semi-structured interview were used to obtain teachers' perceptions. Research findings state that teachers' motivation level was higher as compared to inspiration and retention level. The teachers were motivated only to substitute/augment technological trends in the teaching-learning trajectory, but the attainment of modification/redefinition phases for task creation through the latest technological tools has yet to be achieved. The study recommended that university management may provide extra computing infrastructure and budgetary heads, and incentives for technology incorporation. Training and awareness seminars on the latest Web 2.0 technologies can inspire the faculty to become double talented for modification and redefinition of blended learning practices.
Comprehensive Approach to Speech and Language Assessment in Recurrent Meningioma: A Case Study
Authors: Khemka Srabanti , M Nair Megha
Published: November 2024

Meningioma is a tumor that arises from the meninges - the membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord. It compresses the adjacent brain tissues, nerves and vessels, leading to changes in vision, loss of smell, headaches, hearing loss or ringing in the ears, memory loss, seizure and most importantly communication difficulty. It affects mainly the elderly above the age of 60, at a female: male ratio of 3:2. Recurrence and progression are well known and are frequent characteristics of meningiomas. The present study aimed to perform a comprehensive approach to speech and language assessment in a case with recurrent meningioma. A case reported following postsurgical recurrent meningioma in the left parietal temporal area, exhibiting symptoms of language, speech and swallowing difficulty associated with a weakness in the left upper and lower limb. The evaluation process from a speech and language perspective involved perceptual and instrumental assessment of cognition, communication and swallowing using tests and tools. The case was found to have comorbid disorders of nonfluent aphasia associated with neuro cognitive deficit, mild dysphagia, mild dementia and dysarthria of speech. Though the presence of language and speech disorders in case of recurrent meningioma is not common, the severity of the disorder may lead to severe communication deficit. Assessing and interpreting an individual's communication ability involves the integration of a variety of information collected in the evaluation process.

Published: November 2024

In contemporary healthcare, Electrocardiography (ECG) played a crucial role in the diagnosis and monitoring of heart conditions. This paper introduced an automated system that meticulously processed ECG records, with a focus on extracting essential parameters. The data were sourced from multiple databases, including the prestigious MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database and many more databases. The evaluation phase involved the meticulous assessment of machine learning models, specifically Logistic Regression, Random Forest, Support Vector Machine (SVM), and K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), for the purpose of classifying ECG records.
A noteworthy aspect of this research lies in its innovative approach to classify records of the datasets, thereby enabling the detection of a wide range of cardiac conditions, such as Normal Sinus, Tachycardia, Bradycardia, First-Degree Heart Block, Long QT Syndrome, ST Elevation, and ST Depression. The automated system presented in this paper offers significant support for efficient heart health assessment, which, in turn, facilitates timely interventions and well-informed decisions, potentially contributing to a reduction in the burden of cardiac conditions. This research contributes a comprehensive and valuable system for the processing of ECG records, which promises to aid medical practitioners and researchers in enhancing patient care and advancing early arrhythmia detection.

Introduction: Emotional intelligence (EI) is increasingly recognized as an important attribute in healthcare professions, with a growing acknowledgment of its pivotal role in providing patient-centered care. A high emotional intelligence will promote comprehensive coping skills to address stress, conflict, or any negative behavior in academics and work-related environments.
Objective: To assess the effect of emotional intelligence education intervention on nursing students’ emotional intelligence level in Nepal.
Methods: A true experimental pretest and posttest control group design was adopted for the study. A total of 240 (120 in each study and control group) nursing students enrolled in final year at selected private nursing campuses of province 2 in Nepal were selected for the study by cluster random sampling. The data was collected using self-administered structured questionnaire and Schutte Self Report Emotional Intelligence Test (SSEIT). Both descriptive (frequency, percentage, mean, Standard deviation) and inferential statistics (Mann Whitney test and Wilcoxon test) were used to analyze data in SPSS vs20.
Results: The findings of the study revealed that there was no significant difference of pretest mean EI score between study and control group as P >0.05, whereas the mean EI scores were significantly higher in study group than the control group as P<0.0001 after emotional intelligence education intervention. Similarly, the study findings also revealed that there was significant difference within study group before and after the intervention as p<0.0001. This shows that there was significant effect of Emotional intelligence education intervention program on study group, whereas in control group there was no significant difference as P˃0.05
Conclusion: The present study findings showed that emotional intelligence improved after introducing education intervention for the study subjects with significant improvements across all subscales post intervention. It is recommended that emotional intelligence courses should be included in curriculum of nursing for students to improve emotional intelligence thereby enhancing their self-esteem and quality of life.

Authors: Silumesii Lili , Magapatona Angel
Published: November 2024

This short review investigated the connection between neuraxial anaesthesia and chronic low back pain (CLBP) following caesarean sections, highlighting an important area of concern as the prevalence of such surgeries increases. Several risk factors for developing CLBP were identified, including needle size and patient posture during the procedure. Emphasis was placed on the crucial role of physiotherapists in distinguishing between pregnancy-related back pain and pain resulting from anaesthesia, as well as monitoring postoperative symptoms. Effective physiotherapy interventions were discussed, focusing on improving posture, enhancing mobility, and addressing psychosocial factors that may impact recovery. By advocating for a multidisciplinary approach, the review highlighted the necessity for comprehensive strategies that consider both physical and psychological aspects of recovery, ultimately aiming to optimise outcomes for women after caesarean delivery.

The “Scribal Turn” from Egyptian Hieratic to the Alphabet
Authors: Wimmer Stefan
Published: November 2024

The cultural contact between Canaanite and Egyptian hieratic scribes in Late Bronze Age southern Canaan promoted the consolidation and refinement of the Early Alphabet, which had hitherto been mainly modeled after hieroglyphic sign shapes. Lachish seems to have been pivotal in these encounters. Based on two recently found inscriptions from this site, one hieratic and one Early Alphabetic, it can now be shown that the “handshake” between the scribal traditions occurred already during the 18th Dynasty, in the mid–late 15th century BCE. This is more than a century before the region’s Ramesside administration of the 19th and 20th Dynasties when the scribal contacts intensified considerably.

Published: November 2024

In this research work, a dynamically consistent non-standard finite difference (NSFD) scheme is developed to solve a continuous-time model of malaria transmission with herbal medicine as control strategy. We compared results from NSFD scheme with the standard finite difference methods (4th order Runge-kutta and forward Euler methods). The numerical investigation showed that the proposed NSFD method remains consistent, preserves the positivity of solutions and converges to true equilibrium points of the continuous model independent of the step size h.

Published: November 2024

In this study, the researchers analyze quality control of bread using attributes P-chart to meet in quality control statistics. The population of this study consisted of all types of bread created by My-Food bakery industry (chocolate bread, butter bread, and round bread), with a manufacturing capacity of 500 packs each day, resulting in a total population of 15000 packages for 30 days. The sampling strategy used in this study was a withdrawal of bread type samples based on judgment sampling and random sampling. Although My-Food bakery created five varieties of bread, the researchers only took three. We may deduce from the SPSS test normalcy that these three types of bread are still within a company's standard limit. Despite the fact that production is under control, the corporation must investigate the manufacturing machinery in order to avoid further faulty products.
Syllabification in Optimality Theory
Authors: Atiku Alkali Abubakar
Published: November 2024

This paper examined syllabification in the Sokoto dialect of Fulfulde within the framework of Optimality Theory. The theory employed constraint-based rather than rule-based notations in the analysis of the grammar of languages. This study focused on the Sokoto dialect of Fulfulde in view of the number of dialects of the language spoken across West Africa. Using field-based data, the analysis revealed the salient syllabification requirements of Fulfulde. Findings showed that the syllables of the Sokoto dialect of Fulfulde require onsets and nuclei as obligatory elements. Syllable onsets in the dialect are maximally composed of a single consonant as complex onsets are prohibited. Codas are optional and may be simple or complex. A restriction placed on coda consonants is that except half of geminates, only sonorants are allowed, although in word-final positions, [ŋ], a sonorant, is not attested. These outcomes demonstrated the extent of conformity of Sokoto Fulfulde syllables with the markedness constraints governing syllable structure and the Syllable Contact Law. Further findings indicated that although syllabification in languages is grounded in the sonority of segments vis-à-vis the restrictions that languages place on phoneme combinations, the sonority scale, as presently designed does not adequately handle syllabification in this dialect; calling for an all-inclusive sonority scale.

Ordem sustentada. O Atlas Mnemosyne de Aby Warburg
Authors:   Deutscher Kunstverlag, Schneider Pablo
Published: November 2024

No início do século XX, a ideia de que o conhecimento podia ser obtido através de combinações de imagens não era uma abordagem incomum na história da arte. Mas o círculo em torno da Kunstwissenschaftliche Bibliothek Warburg (KBW) seguia uma procedimento que integrava formas de organização pensadas de maneira singular. Ali, diferentes documentos não só eram interligados uns aos outros, mas também entendidos como fatores capazes de estabelecer entre si relações ativas. O medium de criação do conhecimento na KBW consistia na combinação de imagens em quadros [Tafeln] e da linguagem, os componentes básicos do Atlas de imagens Mnemosyne, incessantemente (re)elaborado por Aby Warburg entre 1924 e 1929.

Published: November 2024

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi seberapa efektif penerapan teknologi dalam teknik yang digunakan sekolah untuk mengajarkan matematika. Penelitian menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif. Subjek penelitian ini kepala sekolah, guru matematika dan siswa. Penelitian dilaksanakan selama 2 bulan juni- juli di SMKN 2 kota Bima. Teknik pengumpulan data dengan cara wawancara mendalam dengan guru, pengamatan kelas dan analisis konten terhadap teknologi yang digunakan dalam pembelajaran matematika. Teknik analisis data pada penelitian ini adalah reduksi data, display data dan verifikasi atau penarikan kesimpulan. Berdasarkan hasil analisis terhadap penggunaan teknologi dalam pembelajaran matematika dapat disimpulkan bahwa penggunaan teknologi photomath, powerpoint, dan LCD dapat memberikan dampak positif terhadap pemahaman konsep matematika dan motivasi siswa. Teknologi memungkinkan visualisasi yang lebih jelas dan interaktif, yang membantu siswa memahami materi matematika yang abstrak. Namun, meskipun teknologi memberikan kemudahan dalam penyelesaian soal dan meningkatkan keterlibatan siswa, masih terdapat kendala dalam pemahaman konsep secara mendalam. Siswa cenderung mengandalkan aplikasi tanpa benar-benar memahami proses di balik penyelesaian soal. Selain itu, penggunaan teknologi masih terbatas pada aspek visualisasi dan belum sepenuhnya mendorong interaksi aktif antara siswa dengan materi. Secara keseluruhan, penggunaan teknologi dalam pembelajaran matematika terbukti efektif dalam meningkatkan motivasi dan keterlibatan siswa, namun perlu diimbangi dengan strategi pengajaran yang lebih interaktif dan mendalam untuk memastikan pemahaman konsep yang lebih baik. Disarankan agar guru memberikan bimbingan lebih lanjut dan memfasilitasi diskusi yang lebih intensif untuk memaksimalkan potensi teknologi dalam proses pembelajaran.

Background: Ankle fractures, especially tri-malleolar fractures, are among the most frequent injuries to the lower extremities, affecting about 179 out of 100,000 individuals each year. Because of their complexity, these fractures provide serious complications for orthopedic surgeons. This work therefore analyzes tri-malleolar fractures to know the effect of prone position in relation to supine position while at the same time bearing in mind the characteristics of individual fracture, the surgeon and the patient. Methods: This comparative study was conducted at a tertiary care hospital, involving a cohort of 200 patients with diagnosed trimalleolar ankle fractures. All participants registered to a tertiary care hospital for management of tri-malleolar ankle fractures were included in the study. Having distinguished patients who stayed in supine position during reduction from those in prone position, the authors proceeded to comparing results. In order to assess effectiveness of each position, radiographic assessment, clinical evaluation and surgical issues were reviewed. Results: Third malleolar fractures were effectively reduced in both supine and prone positions. While the prone position continued to be a dependable way to treat posterior malleolus fractures, the supine position offered improved anterior visibility and maybe decreased neurovascular problems. Positive results were obtained using both methods. Conclusion: For the purpose of reducing tri-malleolar fractures, the decision between prone and supine positions should be made individually. Both approaches can produce acceptable results; however, more investigation is required to improve position selection criteria by taking fracture features and patient-specific factors into account. Keywords: Tri-malleolar fracture, posterior malleolus, prone position, supine position, fracture reduction.

The question addressed in this article is a possible new epistemological framework to find solutions to the current crisis. The analysis began with the idea of creation as a holistic concept. The problem discussed here is related to the relationship between transcendence and immanence. The discussion is based on the approach of Oneness or Unity of Being (wahdat al-wujūd) developed by Ibn ΄Arabī. This Sufi approach is supplemented by an outlook on modern scientific epistemologies. This article proposes a new epistemology based on the Oneness of Being, an outlook into the immanent thinking of the Deleuzian style, and modern scientific approaches, especially from advanced biology. Thus, this article attempts to overcome the problems arising from pre-modern thinking.
Экономика, язык и письмо в русском авангарде: Шкловский, Ленин, Малевич
Authors: Ю. Мурашов
Published: November 2024

Русский авангардный модернизм обнаруживает взаимозависимость идеи советской (анти)- экономики, освобожденной от монитарной логики знаков, и электроакустических технологий, прежде всего радио. В статье анализируются три примера взаимообусловленности антиэкономики и валоризации вербального: формалистическая поэтика остранения Виктора Шкловского, политико-экономические заявления Владимира Ленина об им же инициированной новой экономической политике и восторженное открытие Казимиром Малевичем (анти)экономики как «пятого измерения» и неотъемлемого принципа супрематизма в изображении и письме. Как показывает анализ, и политэкономика, и художественная практика, и эстетическая теория стремятся решить задачи нового времени десемиотизацией в широком смысле слова, то есть переходом от знаковой/ образной репрезентации к сфере вербальной перформативности и чувственному опыту.

The idea of a Soviet, nonmonetary (anti-)economy, on the one hand, and electroacoustic technologies and namely the radio, on the other hand, mutually presuppose each other in Russian avant-garde Modernism. Three very different mutual constellations of (anti-)economy and domination of the verbal are analysed: Viktor Šklovskij’s formalistic poetics of ostranenie, Vladimir Lenin’s politico-economic statements on the New Economical Policy he himself initiated and Kazimir Malevič’s enthusiastic discovery of (anti-)economy as “fifth dimension” and as inherent principle of his suprematism in painting and writing. As the analysis shows, both political economy, painting practice, and aesthetic theory seek to solve the problems of the new age by broadly defined desemiotization, that is, by moving from sign/image representation to the realm of verbal performativity and sensual experience.
«Верти машину»: кино Вертова в контексте научной организации труда
Authors: М. Фёрингер
Published: November 2024

В своей статье Маргарета Фёрингер рассматривает кинотворчество Дзиги Вертова 1920-х годов в контексте таких авангардных проектов, как фактография, и соотносит его развитие с научной организацией труда того времени. Автор фокусирует внимание на новаторском фильме Вертова «Человек с киноаппаратом», проясняя его значение в контексте реалий Советской России 1920-х годов. Инновационный подход Вертова к кинематографу, основанный на идеалах авангарда и экспериментальной психологии, бросает вызов традиционным представлениям о кинопроизводстве. В статье объясняется то, как кинематографические эксперименты Вертова позволяли проявить и продемонстрировать масштабные общественные изменения. Важное место в авторском анализе отводится определению момента пересечения искусства, технологий и культуры в Советском Союзе.

Vöhringer’s article examines Dziga Vertov’s film work in the 1920s, contextualizing it with avant-garde projects such as factography and relating the developments to the scientific work management of the time. The author focuses on Vertov’s groundbreaking film Man with a Movie Camera and its significance in the context of the realities of Soviet Russia in the 1920s. Vertov’s innovative approach to cinema, based on avant-garde ideals and experimental psychology, challenges traditional notions of filmmaking. The article explains how Vertov’s cinematic experiments made it possible to manifest and demonstrate largescale social changes. An important point is to determine the moment of intersection of art, technology and culture in the Soviet Union.
Стихотворение Дана Пагиса «Написано карандашом в опечатанном вагоне»: обзор интерпретаций
Authors: Н. Быстров
Published: November 2024

В статье рассматриваются некоторые интерпретации знаменитого стихотворения израильского поэта Дана пагиса, предлагаемые литературными критиками и историками ивритской поэзии. Эти интерпретации, касающиеся главным образом языковых (грамматико-семантических), концептуальных и интертекстуальных особенностей пагисовского текста, дают возможность прочитать его как стихотворение, противоречащее классической парадигме осмысления еврейской жертвенности, представляющее трагическое путешествие в опечатанном вагоне (собственно, Катастрофу европейского еврейства, Шоа) до сих пор незавершенным и требующее от читателя стать «участником» описываемых событий.

The article discusses some interpretations of the famous poem by the Israeli poet Dan Pagis that offered by literary critics and historians of Hebrew poetry. These interpretations, concerning mainly the linguistic (grammatical and semantic), conceptual and intertextual features of this Pagis’s text, make it possible to read it as a poem that contradicts the classical paradigm of understanding Jewish sacrifice, representing a tragic journey in a sealed railway car (actually, the Catastrophe of European Jewry, the Shoah) is still unfinished and requires the it’s reader to become a “participant” of the described events.
