Within and Without. Hopper, peintre de la distanciation intime
Authors: Bardet Pascal
Published: September 2023

La plupart des toiles urbaines d’Edward Hopper représentent souvent des scènes de la vie courante théâtralisées où s’opère un rapport complexe entre l’artiste, les personnages et les lieux, entre l'éphémère et l'intemporel, entre le désir d’ailleurs et la stase des individus figés dans un état de suspension physique et psychologique. Dans leur solitude statique, les figures hopperiennes paraissent prisonnières de leur environnement et leur incapacité de communiquer avec autrui les pousse à vouloir s’extraire de leur prison mentale par la recherche d’un ailleurs indéfinissable. Toute l’œuvre de Hopper semble être le reflet de sa propre solitude, un autoportrait en quête de soi-même où l’artiste nous donne à voir la banalité de la vie urbaine à travers le prisme de sa propre intériorité. Le monde hopperien est donc un système complexe où l’œil du spectateur opère un mouvement constant entre l'intimité d'un monde urbain clos ou muet, reflet de l'inconscient du peintre, et l'au-delà, l’ailleurs inaccessible. En somme, l’œuvre de Hopper est une peinture de l’intime, de l’attente, de l’incommunicabilité avec soi-même et avec le monde extérieur.
La chanson dans Le Roman inachevé
Authors: Bismuth Hervé
Published: September 2023

Le Roman inachevé est le creuset des premières et des plus durables adaptations en chansons des poèmes d’Aragon. Mais cette œuvre n’est pas seulement du bois dont on fait les chansons : elle fait aussi entendre, à bien des endroits, sa propre bande sonore et tient elle-même un discours sur la chanson : métaphore parfois de la vie, la chanson reçoit les mêmes hommages que le noble chant poétique.
Contre l’Histoire – tout contre ? Quelques incursions musico-littéraires en territoire soviétique
Authors: Avignon Nathalie
Published: September 2023

Cet article se propose d’examiner tour à tour les romans Une rue à Moscou (Sivtzev vrajek) de Mikhaïl Ossorguine, Tchevengour d’Andreï Platonov et Le Maître et Marguerite de Mikhaïl Boulgakov. Dans ces fictions de la Russie soviétique aux registres très variés, une place est laissée à la musique. Cette place est parfois ténue, mais souvent révélatrice de la manière dont l’art des sons peut rencontrer la grande Histoire, inscrire sa propre histoire dans celle – plus vaste – des hommes, et ainsi l’explorer, l’interroger, la raconter.
Le palais de la mémoire : la musique de Bach comme (auto)analyse chez Frank Tallis et Thomas Harris
Authors: Sounac Frédéric
Published: September 2023

L’enquête policière a souvent surdéterminé la musique comme modèle de cheminement hypothético-déductif, souscrivant implicitement à une très puissante tradition de pythagorisme musical : l’événement musical (le plus souvent une mélodie) serait ainsi un outil à la fois intuitif et rationnel de reconstitution « hypermnésique » du crime. On se propose d’examiner la manière dont ce motif culturel se perpétue et s’infléchit dans des fictions policières telles que Mortal Mischief (2005), de l’auteur britannique Frank Tallis, et Hannibal Rising (2006) de Thomas Harris, qui accordent l’une comme l’autre un rôle essentiel à la musique de Bach.
Comment les pratiques pédagogiques de l’urbanisme temporaire réenchantent l’espace et créent des lieux de partage du vivant : Le cas du Jardin d’expériences à Mons (Be)
Authors: Blanckaert Simon
Published: September 2023

Dans le propos qui va suivre, nous allons développer la mise en place d’un projet pédagogique qui s’inscrit aujourd’hui dans les paysages intermédiaires aux franges de ville et interroge les processus d’aménagement du territoire en Wallonie.Le Jardin d’Expériences (JExp’) est un projet pédagogique sous la forme d’un chantier d’aménagement et d’une occupation temporaire. Il prône un apprentissage expérientiel, fruit d’une relation sensible entre l’être, le geste, la matière et l’espace qui l’entoure. Cette action peut s’apparenter à de l’urbanisme temporaire. C’est à partir de l’observation d’un terrain sur lequel un JExp’ s’est déroulé que nous évaluerons la transformation d’un espace intermédiaire à devenir un lieu propice au sauvage et au vivant. Nous ouvrirons en conclusion sur la potentielle « mise en culture du sauvage » engagée par les « trois jardins » -Individuel, collectif et territorial- du JExp’ à destination d’un territoire pilote situé en Wallonie.
L’artefact dans le roman Le Vaisseau (Das Schiff, 2015) de Andreas Brandhorst : comment repenser l’humain et l’intelligence artificielle
Authors: Labarthe Gauthier
Published: September 2023

Cet article examine la manière dont l’auteur allemand de science-fiction Andreas Brandhorst revisite le mythe de la Genèse dans son roman Le Vaisseau (Das Schiff) publié en 2016. À travers les personnages d’Adam et Evelyn, l’auteur propose en effet un récit des origines évoquant le motif biblique de la sortie du paradis.Dans un monde voué à une logique évolutionniste entièrement orientée vers le perfectionnement technologique exponentiel dont l’humain semble exclu à terme, le personnage principal réintroduit un « pouvoir-mourir » dans le temps statique de l’immortalité. Il réveille alors une nostalgie non seulement de la finitude, mais aussi d’une totalité infinie en acte que l’homme ne peut approcher qu’en faisant l’expérience de ses propres limites de connaissance et d’expérience.L’entité qui se manifeste à la fin du roman par la sécrétion d’une pluie noire et visqueuse matérialise parfaitement ce passage de la transparence à l’opacité, cette volonté de retrouver l’énigmaticité de l’être qui caractérise tout un pan de la production science-fictionnelle actuelle (dans le film Under the skin ou la série P’tit Quinquinnotamment).
Redécouvrir l’humain : croisements de mythes dans la science-fiction de Cordwainer Smith
Authors: Nimis Jean
Published: September 2023

L’écrivain américain Paul Linebarger (1913-1966) a commencé à publier ses textes sous le pseudonyme de Cordwainer Smith dans les années Soixante mais n’a rencontré qu’un succès éditorial limité. Son œuvre de SF, publiée après sa mort, comporte une sélection de trente-deux nouvelles et un roman. Le tout constitue dans la version française le cycle des Seigneurs de l’Instrumentalité : une saga de l’humanité couvrant la période de 1945 à 16500 après J.-C. L’ouvrage est à la fois une histoire du futur et un livre-univers qui tire son originalité d’éléments de de style qui confèrent aux récits une atmosphère légendaire propre aux mythes.Les thèmes majeurs du cycle (la « redécouverte de l’humanité », la réhabilitation des « sous-êtres », le périple initiatique de Rod McBan dans Norstralia) comportent des caractères narratologiques qui apparentent leur exposé à la mythologie (incipit de fables, intertextualité, animaux parlants, ambivalences et paradoxes, mouvements dialectiques, temporalité). S’y ajoutent un polylinguisme dans l’onomastique et des croisements de codes entre les aires asiatiques et occidentales qui ajoutent au sense of wonder entretenu par les récits.On s’intéresse ici plus particulièrement aux régimes symboliques et aux structures archétypales de l’imaginaire de l’auteur, ainsi qu’à la signifiance de quelques-unes des images. Dans le contexte des années 50 et 60, cette approche permet de mieux préciser l’idéologie et l’éthique de Cordwainer Smith, auteur chez qui la tension religieuse et une forte empathie sont manifestes.
Couleur multi-surface, débord et apothéose transgressive de la couleur chez David LaChapelle
Authors: Cordié Levy Marie
Published: September 2023

L’auteur approche la couleur dans une série d’œuvres de David LaChapelle en s’inspirant de la micro analyse de Carlo Ginzburg. Elle montre comment la couleur passe d’un usage inspiré par les canons esthétiques de la peinture italienne à une dimension métaphorique puis comment l’usage du débord et du recouvrement accompagnent le propos distopique du photographe.
« Une œuvre sans monde » : Wols de Cassis à Dieulefit (1940-1945)
Authors: Bière Delphine
Published: September 2023

Après son internement au camp des Milles, l’artiste Wols a vécu coupé du monde pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Réfugié clandestin à Cassis puis à Dieulefit, il modifie ses pratiques artistiques (photographique, picturale) en observant son environnement immédiat et la nature. L’expérience des limites, celle de son identité comme celle de son mode d’expression, projette l’artiste dans un monde imaginaire. Il disloque la représentation, révèle la visibilité des éléments graphiques et picturaux et fait apparaître une iconographie instable et rhizomatique. Indissociable des conditions de vie de l’artiste, et subissant les contraintes extérieures, l’œuvre de Wols, de format réduit, est constituée de fragments, qui affirment le discontinu et un autre langage plastique. Ainsi Wols installe la précarité au cœur de la représentation et insiste sur la matérialité du medium ; aucune certitude dans la ligne, mais rythme et mouvement, le dessin devient alors un mode d’investigation, et de déconstruction de la représentation pour nous projeter dans l’imaginaire du peintre.
Les médias italiens contemporains : explorer les représentations du sans-papier
Authors: Cavaleri Giuseppe
Published: September 2023

La représentation du clandestin est foncièrement un oxymore étymologique. Comment mettre en exergue un être qui est relégué visuellement, socialement et politiquement dans l’ombre ? Les médias appartenant à l’univers audiovisuel sont-ils capables de nous montrer objectivement le quotidien des sans-papiers ? À travers cette contribution, nous tenterons de comprendre, avant tout, comment certains médias de masse altèrent la vision du grand public en lui proposant des images peu édifiantes du clandestin. Puis, nous nous concentrerons sur le poids des stéréotypes véhiculés par les médias de masse – et plus particulièrement par les médias italiens – et par certains produits cinématographiques issus du cinéma commercial, qui proposent une vision massive et dépersonnalisée du clandestin. Pour terminer, nous analyserons les œuvres de cinéastes italiens contemporains tels que Matteo Garrone, Federico Bondi, Emanuele Crialese et Haider Rashid qui tentent, à travers des codes cinématographiques issus du Réalisme poétique, du Néoréalisme et du film-documentaire, d’extirper symboliquement ces êtres de leur anonymat. Cela dans le but de dévoiler, à travers la fiction, leurs parcours, souvent laborieux, frappés par une invisibilité subie.
Le devenir clandestin de l’Auteur dans La Nuit morave de Peter Handke
Authors: Labarthe Gauthier
Published: September 2023

À partir du roman La Nuit morave (Die morawische Nacht), il s’agira d’étudier les nouvelles formes de l’auctorialité handkéenne en nous intéressant plus particulièrement à la trajectoire de la voix narrative ainsi qu’au dispositif qui en découle. En retraçant la fuite du personnage principal qui l’a porté pendant plusieurs années vers les marges de l’Europe, le récit dessine en effet le parcours sinueux d’une voix erratique prise dans un double mouvement d’expropriation et d’ouverture à l’Autre. L’« abdication » de l’Auteur ainsi dépossédé de son auctorialité au début de son voyage, alors qu’il se trouve en Espagne, débouche sur une expérience libératrice. L’extraterritorialité de la péniche sur laquelle il vit et accueille ses invités pour leur relater son voyage caractérise également la voix narrative qui, prise dans ce mouvement immobile, devient le lieu du partage du Dire, de l’avènement à la parole de toutes ces voix tues, autres et clandestines qu’il recueille pour fonder une nouvelle forme de communauté. Le lecteur assiste donc, à mesure que le récit progresse, au devenir clandestin de l’auteur qui devient la seule forme possible de ce nouvel art de raconter handkéen.
Danger or Shelter? Lullabies in the Music of Benjamin Britten
Authors: Leccia Marinu
Published: September 2023

Britten’s playful aesthetic puts the child at the centre of many of his works. The lullaby is a genre which is therefore omnipresent. Through some case studies (A Charm of Lullabies, The Rape of Lucretia, The Turn of the Screw, A Midsummer Night’s Dream), this article considers the ways Britten tests the semiotic boundaries of the lullaby to create many ambiguous situations. With the transposition of a social and musical activity (to lull a child to sleep) on stage, Britten’s work blurs the mother-child relation by many inversions, and in particular makes of the child an ambivalent adult-like figure. The lullaby becomes paradoxically a protection and a luring danger. The article also reconsiders Britten’s own relation with his mother as well as it analyses the child-art and aesthetical implications of his juvenilia.
Shirley Goldfarb : un journal, une œuvre, 1971-1980
Authors: Villemur Frédérique
Published: September 2023

Shirley Goldfarb (1925-1980) appartient à la seconde génération des artistes expressionnistes américains et fait partie de ces Américains qui au lendemain de la Seconde Guerre mondiale ont trouvé leur expression de peintres à Paris. Cependant, en tant que femme artiste, elle n’eut qu’une reconnaissance tardive, et ce sont ses Carnets rédigés entre 1971 et 1980, qui, adaptés au théâtre, la firent plus largement connaître. Son journal nous permet de suivre autant le travail de peintre que le dur métier de vivre : ainsi c’est un regard de femme en proie à la solitude qu’elle jette sur un Paris qu’elle aime, celui du milieu des artistes et de la mode de la rive gauche, entre Montparnasse et Saint-Germain-des-Prés, et dont elle dresse les portraits et les rêves de succès. Elle-même se construit « un personnage » et se dépeint comme telle, cependant son journal révèle une quête de soi entre les mots et la peinture. Golfarb aimait à se poser à la terrasse des cafés et à attendre en regardant, ainsi que David Hockney l’a dépeinte, tournée vers le monde, devant la grande toile du visible.

Published: September 2023

Nurses are at risk of experiencing various impacts due to work that affect their health. Nurses are at risk of experiencing mental health problems that can affect the quality of life and productivity of nurses, including burnout syndrome or mental fatigue. This study aims to identify the determinant factors associated with nurse burnout. This study used a cross-sectional design with 63 respondents using a purposive sampling method. Bivariate data analysis with chi square and multivariate with logistic regression. The results of the analysis show that most of the nurses experience burnout. Age, marital status and self-efficacy are significantly related to nurse burnout. Multivariate analysis showed self-efficacy (Exp(B) 0.029; 95% CI 0.004-0.197) as the most dominant factor causing nurse burnout. Nurses with low self-efficacy have a seven times higher risk of experiencing burnout than nurses who have high self-efficacy, but burnout is also influenced by other factors such as age and marital status. Future researchers are advised to consider other factors that can affect burnout so that they have different criteria and maximum research results
Relações entre informação, empoderamento e discriminação: o acesso e o uso da informação pelo grupo de Facebook LGBTQI+ Resistência pela Democracia
Authors: Silva Maurício Coelho da , Moura Ana Maria Mielniczuk de
Published: September 2023

Esse trabalho tem como objetivo compreender de que forma ocorre o processo de empoderamento dos membros do grupo de Facebook LGBTQI+ Resistência pela Democracia em um espaço virtual de acesso e uso da informação. Utilizou-se de métodos netnográficos para coleta de dados extraídos via questionário, sendo que obteve-se um total de 153 participantes. Os dados analisados permitem inferir que, no concernente a identificação da população, a maioria dos respondentes são pessoas cisgêneras, homossexuais (gays e lésbicas) e brancos, demonstrando pouca diversidade na amostra populacional. Já quanto ao grau de ensino dos respondentes, uma parte significativa cursa ou já cursou pós-graduação, demonstrando um perfil mais acadêmico dentre os sujeitos analisados. Constatou-se ainda que parte dos participantes sente-se desconfortável em participar de comunidades virtuais LGBTQI+ em razão de discursos discriminatórios que são reproduzidos pelos próprios integrantes do movimento LGBTQI+, bem como um potencial de empoderamento nesses espaços que é prejudicado por tais discriminações, demonstrando a necessidade de que os processos de acesso e uso da informação incluam uma abordagem interseccional que de conta da diversidade de identidades que compõem a comunidade LGBTQI+.
Antibiotic Resistance and Susceptibility Profile, with Biofilm Forming Potential Of Clinically Isolated Enterococcus Specie from Blood and Urine Samples
Authors: Anjum Faryal , Naim Asma , Imran Zeba Parveen , Haroon Urooj
Published: September 2023

Enterococcus spp. is Gram-positive cocci bacteria among the normal flora in human intestine. Common species are Enterococcus fecalis and Enterococcus faecium. They work as probiotics and help in digestion and immune system modulation. Enterococci are opportunistic pathogens and can cause nosocomial infections. Biofilm is one of the factors that facilitate the antibiotic resistance, which is complex EPS (exopolysaccharides) structure surrounding microbial cells, making them resistant from antimicrobial treatments. Due to acquisition of different virulence factors and resistance from antibiotics, infections of Enterococcus spp., have increased. In this study antibiotic resistance and sensitivity profile with their ability to form biofilm, has been determined. Human blood and urine samples were taken from Memon Medical Hospital Karachi. Culture and sensitivity test was performed for the major groups of antibiotics used for treating enterococcal infections with analysis of biofilm formation. Highest resistance was observed against the antibiotic levofloxacin 90% and all organisms were sensitive from linezolid 100%. Overall organisms were resistance from one and more antibiotics. All organisms were able to form biofilms as well. Antibiotic resistance has become an alarming challenge for the health care globally. Enterococcal resistance from major groups of antibiotics for their treatment has increased the rate of nosocomial infections.

Influence Analysisloan Information on Interest Rate in Peer to Peer Lending
Authors: Maria Evi , Hadiprajitno P. Basuki
Published: September 2023

Technology has developed rapidly and affected every community's life. This condition was also supported by the occurrence of a pandemic in early 2020 which resulted in restrictions on mobility between individuals and other humans to reduce the spread of the virus which resulted in a crisis. One of the technological developments in the financial sector is loan products through the Peer to Peer platform. Namely transactions that use an online platform that functions as an intermediary that connects borrowers and lenders to carry out lending and borrowing transactions without meeting physically. P2P transaction mechanisms that are carried out directly between borrowers and investors provide risk directly to investors for the success of their funding through the P2P platform. Therefore, in conducting a direct analysis of the loans to be financed, investors must have adequate information so that they can make the best analysis for the financing they are doing. This mechanism allows for information asymmetry on the part of borrowers and investors.

The level of trust from lenders is an important factor that will influence their decision as investors to provide funds to borrowers. This confidence can be obtained, among other things, by studying the various available information. In addition, there is the phenomenon of an increase in borrowers and lenders in P2P transactions in Indonesia. It is necessary to pay attention to whether this decision affects interest rates for lending through P2P platforms.

Dinamica elementelor de compunere în limba română actuală

Published: September 2023

In this study we have started from an overview of the composition with semidependent elements problem, the confusion that can be made between the composition with composing elements and derivation, or between composing elements and suffixes or prefixes. We also showed that the number of composing elements is very high, potentially all the words of ancient languages, Greek and Latin, from which they are borrowed. The indirect etymology, i.e. the word originating in ancient languages and its meaning, is very important for understanding the meaning of the compound word. The following chapter provides an overview of the elements of composition classification. They can be prime, final or median. They can originate in ancient languages or can be formed by using Romanian independent words. The trends observed are to transform the composing elements commonly used into standalone ones or, on the contrary, they are to turn independent words into composing elements. Fashionable composing elements form extremely large word families, compared to the word families formed by derivation. To study the tendencies in the language, what is required is the observation of trends in habits and attitudes; we described the computerization and the return to nature, which are in equilibrium. Romanian was a predominant derivative language, but it is probable that, that under the influence of English, composition as a means of enriching the Romanian vocabulary will increase and the two processes will become equal in importance.

Escherichia coli (E.coli) is a group of gram-negative bacteria that are part of the normal flora in the body. Under certain conditions, these bacteria can be pathogenic by producing enterotoxins that can cause serious infections such as diarrhea. Establishing the diagnosis of infection due to E.coli bacteria, namely through laboratory tests by identifying the bacteria through the bacterial staining method. So far, the most widely used bacterial dyes are synthetic dyes such as safranin. Safranin is a dye in Gram stain which can be carcinogenic and in the long run has a negative impact on health. To overcome this problem, it is necessary to innovate natural dyes that can be used as alternative dyes. Leaves of henna nails (Lawsonia inermis L.) is one of the natural ingredients which has an orange-orange lawsone pigment that is able to color the cell walls of gram-negative bacteria such as E.coli. The purpose of this study was to determine the ability of henna leaf extract (Lawsonia inermis L.) as an alternative to safranin staining. This research is a laboratory experiment. The experimental group was stained with henna leaf extract, using ethanol solvent concentrations of 25 mg/ml, 50 mg/ml, 75 mg/ml and 100 mg/ml. The control group used safranin dye. All research groups were carried out 3 repetitions. The parameters used were the clarity of the visual field, the shape of the bacteria, the cleanliness of the preparation and the color of the bacteria compared to the safranin control. The results showed that henna leaf extract was effective enough to be used as a coloring agent to replace safranin because it can color E.coli bacteria well.

In this study aimed at unraveling the nuanced attitudes of Filipino consumers towards sustainable consumption, we reached out to a diverse group of 452 individuals. Utilizing the Partial Least Squares Path Modeling (PLS-PM), we assessed the interrelationship among Perceived Behavioral Control toward Sustainable Behavior (PBCSB), Subjective Norms toward Sustainable Behavior (SNOSB), Attitude toward Sustainable Behavior (ATSB), Personal Involvement (PI), and Sustainable Consumption Behavior (SCB). The resultant data painted a largely optimistic picture: participants expressed a noteworthy approval of sustainable practices, averaging a rating of 5.14 out of 7. A significant observation was their affinity towards businesses that champion environmental values and their keenness to endorse sustainable products. Interestingly, the sway of peers and an individual's own belief in their ability were pivotal in shaping these eco-friendly purchase intentions. While this research offers a richer understanding of the Filipino consumer mindset, it's imperative to acknowledge its limitations, such as potential sampling biases and certain unexplored factors. Yet, these findings remain instrumental for businesses seeking to sync with Filipino consumers' evolving sustainable consumption patterns.

Published: September 2023

Maternal knowledge and behaviors attempting to prevent or avoid congenital disorders have not reached optimal levels. This qualitative descriptive study describes the challenges of avoiding congenital disorders from the experiences of pregnant women in northeastern Thailand. Data were collected between November 2017 and August 2019 from 18 pregnant women through in-depth interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis.
Three themes reflecting challenges emerged. Firstly, ‘traditional beliefs’ were challenging regarding unclear and potential adverse outcomes. Secondly, the challenges of ‘contemporary beliefs’ included distinct views and inaccessible information, characterized as non-apprehension, non-comprehension, non-modernization, or non-precision to preventing congenital disorders. Finally, ‘daily life activities,’ in selectiveness in eating, attainment of mother-child healthiness, and harm avoidance were aimed at both congenital disorder prevention and fetal development promotion. Some significant challenging topics included: vulnerable periods; some taboos; nutrients for brain development; safety in food, working, and environment; concerns with dangers of physical activities, exercise, maternal stress, and medicines; and misperceived benefits of herbal drugs and fetal stimulation. Nursing and midwifery practice guidelines should integrate the concept of congenital disorders prevention into the promotion of fetal development using culturally-sensitive approaches. The found challenges should be overcome and further applied in refining the practice guidelines.

Social media significantly influences the formation of the ideal body image. The discrepancy between the ideal body image and the current body reality causes adolescents to experience body dissatisfaction. However, the extent to which the impact of the pressure of the sociocultural model will depend on the individual's self-esteem. The study aims to determine the role of the intensity of Instagram use on body dissatisfaction in female adolescents in Denpasar, which is moderated by self-esteem. Sampling was carried out using a two-stage cluster sampling technique. The subjects in this study were 110 young women aged 10-22 years in Denpasar. The measurement tools used are Instagram Usage Intensity Scale, Self-Esteem Scale, and Body Dissatisfaction Scale. The results of the Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) test show a parameter coefficient value of 1,791 with a significance of 0.004 (p <0.05), meaning that the intensity of Instagram use plays a significant role in body dissatisfaction. The coefficient value of the self-esteem moderation parameter is -0.012 with a significance of 0.039 ( p <0.05), meaning that self-esteem weakens the relationship between the intensity of Instagram use and body dissatisfaction. The coefficient of determination (R2) in this study was 0.392, meaning that the intensity of using Instagram and self-esteem played a role of 39.2% in body dissatisfaction. The results of this study can provide a general description of the role of the intensity of Instagram use on body dissatisfaction which can be moderated by self-esteem.
Principles of Post-Colonial Adult Education: The Case of Adult Education Programmes in Tanzania
Authors: Ng'umbi Michael
Published: September 2023

Using content analysis techniques, this case study analysed three adult education programmes in the light of post-colonial education theorisation, in order to determine how best adult education programmes can be designed and implemented. The study assessed how adult education programmes are designed in terms of the five principles of glocalisation, empowerment, participation, holisticness and flexibility. The findings reveal that there are about 19 key elements to consider when designing adult education programmes in the context of post-colonial education. The findings further reveal that the analysed programmes have most the elements of post-colonial education, although there is still room for improvement especially with considerations for more inclusion of indigenous knowledge and technologies; more oral and practical elements within curricula; and use of local traditional experts; but at the same time integrate global issues in the curricula. The study recommends on benchmarking programme designs with principles of adult education; on the need to review adult education programmes from time to time, in order to align the programmes with principles; and on the need to use the principles analysed in the study to trigger more thinking on post-colonial education, and on adult education.

Despite efforts made by governments, communities, and development groups, sexual assault against girls and women has been rising globally. For instance, the Sexual Offences Special Provisions Act of 1998, which specifies actions to be taken when sexual violence is reported, is in effect in Tanzania. This paper on sexual violence prevalent against girls and women is aimed at determining the extent to which sexual violence prevails in the study area. It used a sample size of 399 respondents, which included girls and women, who were obtained by using a simple random sampling technique. A structured questionnaire and a documentary review were used to collect data. The questionnaire was designed in such a way that the number of sexual violence occurrences could be determined. A scale interval of 0-1, 2-3, 4-5, 6-7, and over 8 cases per month was used to determine the number of sexual violence occurrences and, consequently, sexual violence prevalence. The Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) was used to analyze data in which frequencies and percentages were produced and presented in tabular forms. The study found that sexual harassment was the most prevalent form of sexual violence (22.1%), followed by child abuse (16.2%). These findings indicate that community members should be ready to unveil all actions that contribute to sexual violence practices and abandon cultural practices that give men the power to do whatever they wish to do to women and girls.
Primary School Teachers’ Pedagogical Practices and Inclusive Education: A Case of Pupils with Moderate Deafblindness in Tanzania
Authors: Wakuru Manini
Published: September 2023

This study presents evidence from the primary school teachers’ pedagogical practices in the inclusion of pupils with moderate deafblindness. It also explains the factors hindering pupils’ participation in learning. A qualitative approach with multiple case study design was adopted. Purposive sampling was used to select forty participants from four inclusive primary schools in Tanzania. Data were generated using semistructured interviews, non-participatory classroom observations, focus group discussions (FGDs) and document reviews. Thematic analysis was used to identify, analyse, and record themes and sub-themes from the data generated. Findings indicate that lesson plans had long been homogenized, the teaching and learning approaches were not disability-sensitive and teaching and learning materials were also inadequate and inaccessible. Additionally, while the classroom environment was inaccessible for pupils with deaf-blindness, the assessment strategies were homogenized for all. The findings further show that the teaching practices and learning environment were exclusionary without considering the pupil’s unique learning needs. Among other things, the paper recommends that there is a need to restructure teachers’ pedagogical practices to accommodate the diversity needs of learners in order to ensure equitable access to quality education and participation of all pupils.
The Contribution of Educational Research Course towards Teachers Professional Development
Authors: Kihwele Jimmy
Published: September 2023

The study explores the contribution of educational research course taught in teacher education programmes towards teachers’ professional development. Seventeen student-teachers and two teacher educators from a selected university participated in semi-structured interviews. Data were analysed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed a divided proportion among student-teachers as some reported the course has a crucial contribution to professional development and some said the course had no contribution. The findings further revealed tension between what was expected and the experienced reality of the research course in contributing to teacher professional development. The course content was huge and did not enable teachers to acquire and use research skills for professional development. Teaching and learning time was limited and varying attitudes among student-teachers towards the course was a challenge. The study recommends that teacher training institutions revise the research course to suit its applicability to teachers in the school context. Also, teacher educators should interpret the context and design simple lessons to enable student-teachers in developing the required skills and apply them in the school context.
