Published: July 2024

Un agente conversacional, es un sistema de software, que permite emular la comunicación con un ser humano a través de mensajes de texto o voz. El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar la funcionalidad y usabilidad (eficacia, eficiencia, satisfacción) de un agente conversacional denominado Codebot, desarrollado en la Facultad de Ciencias de la Información, como herramienta de apoyo para facilitar el aprendizaje del lenguaje de Programación C de los estudiantes del programa educativo de Ingeniería en Sistemas Computacionales, así como, la experiencia y calidad hedónica (social) de la herramienta. El alcance del estudio fue descriptivo, con análisis cuantitativo. La recolección de datos fue transversal con muestras de distintos tamaños por conveniencia. Se empleó la Escala de Usabilidad del Sistema (SUS), que se extendió para evaluar tres aspectos: efectividad y eficiencia del bot, así como la satisfacción del usuario. La fiabilidad del instrumento fue de 0.93 alfa de Cronbach. El comportamiento del agente en la prueba funcional final arrojó 70 % de respuestas exitosas y un 30 % de solicitudes no reconocidas, debido a que: 1) la información solicitada no se encontraba en la base de conocimiento del agente, 2) solicitudes mal planteadas o sin sentido. El diseño e implementación del agente conversacional Codebot permitió obtener una base de conocimiento robustecida para mejorar el aprendizaje del lenguaje C, y su funcionamiento fue satisfactorio. Sin embargo, es necesario continuar con pruebas con mayor número de muestras que profundicen en las características sobre la creación del agente conversacional.

Published: July 2024

La percepción y nivel de competencias digitales de los estudiantes universitarios suscitan un tema de interés actual, debido a que se ha documentado que existe una brecha digital de género. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue de­terminar la existencia de una brecha digital entre alumnos universitarios, de acuerdo a su per­cepción, por género. Se llevó a cabo una investigación cuantitativa, de corte transversal, durante febrero de 2021, para conocer la autopercepción sobre las competencias digitales que tenían los estudiantes de la Universidad Autónoma de Zacatecas (UAZ), segmentándola por género: hombre, mujer y miembro de la comunidad LGBTI. Se consideraron las dimensiones Información, Comunicación y Creación de Contenidos del instrumento DIGCOMP 1.0. La prueba de normalidad Kolmogórov-Smirnov indicó que no se tenía distribución normal en los datos y estos se analizaron mediante la prue­ba estadística no paramétrica hipótesis H de Kruskal-Wallis. Los hombres y los miembros de la comunidad LGBTI se autopercibieron con mejores competencias digitales que las muje­res en el uso de odenadores, así como en el uso de editores de video y de audio. Es conveniente determinar si esta autopercepción está asociada con una brecha digital de género en la práctica. Los resultados sugieren la necesidad de programas de intervención que mejoren las competencias digitales de la población estudiantil universitaria, con mayor énfasis en las mujeres.

Published: July 2024

Los monitores comunitarios (MC) participan de forma estratégica en proyectos de investigación como actores no científicos, por pertenecer a comunidades locales del área de estudio y conocer su biodiversidad; sin embargo, existe poca información respecto a su impacto, quehacer y contribución. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue determinar la colaboración de los MC en tres áreas naturales protegidas (ANP) de México (Tamaulipas y Veracruz). Mediante entrevistas semiestructuradas se estableció el tipo de interacciones existentes entre los MC, investigadores responsables de proyectos, miembros de entidades públicas que otorgan financiamiento y el representante de una organización no gubernamental. Se revisaron 31 reportes finales de 15 investigadores que trabajaron con MC para corroborar el registro de la contribución. Su actividad se registró desde 2002, principalmente en monitoreo de aves (35.48 %), recolectando muestras, datos, información y recursos, ayudando a interpretar resultados y extraer conclusiones. Los beneficios percibidos de su participación como MC los reflejaron en el ámbito personal, local, institucional y de conservación. Los proyectos fueron su principal fuente de aprendizaje, otorgándoles experiencia, capacitación y conocimientos, que les permitió incorporarse a nuevos proyectos y mejorar su trabajo como guías de turistas, su otra fuente de ingresos. Manifestaron falta de valoración y certificación de sus conocimientos como MC, limitando su desarrollo y situación económica. Se localizaron 12 productos académicos, que incluían a 2 MC como autores, y que fueron generados por 2 investigadores de los 15 que participaron en este estudio, lo que indica su exclusión y falta de reconocimiento. Se requieren acciones que permitan certificar su conocimiento como MC, para facilitar su desarrollo y mejorar su situación económica. Esto evitaría poner en riesgo su contribución, de vasta experiencia empírica-técnica que ha obtenido con su labor a lo largo del tiempo.

Published: July 2024

Prescribing medication for older adults is more challenging than for younger individuals due to a variety of reasons. These include physiological and psychological changes associated with ageing, physical and social limitations, cognitive decline, and multiple health conditions. Healthcare providers should stay informed and follow specific prescription protocols for older patients. A collaborative approach involving patients, nurses, pharmacists, and caregivers is crucial to ensure appropriate prescriptions. Health professionals should be aware of the risks associated with drug interactions and adverse reactions. Regular review of medications and discontinuation of inappropriate drugs are essential practices. This systematic approach improves patient care and helps alleviate the financial strain on patients and the healthcare system.

Authors: Vishvanath Pratap Singh  , Shashank Pandey  , Vipin Kumar
Published: July 2024

The current research shows the analysis of the quality of groundwater close to a landfill in Lucknow City, in Uttar Pradesh, India. Calculating the leachate pollution index (LPI) and water quality index (WQI) has been done to evaluate the quality of the groundwater and the leachate near the site. A very high value of LPI (27.54) indicates that there was a substantial amount of contaminants at the landfill site. the calculation of WQI for the groundwater samples has been done and a map for showing its spatial distribution has been prepared for the analysis of the WQI, revealing that 40% of the groundwater specimens are excellent alongside 60% of the groundwater is in a good category. the spatial distribution of WQI illustrates that the majority of the region around the site of the landfill is in the good category and the remaining is in the excellent category. The experimental result of the physicochemical analysis for groundwater revealed that water is satisfactory and fit for drinking and other domestic use and only some parameters like total alkalinity, total hardness, EC, TDS, sodium, magnesium, calcium, and sulfate are above the desirable limit set by Indian standard (IS10500: 2012). This study also emphasizes the importance of LPI and WQI as a monitoring tool for the policymakers and the government body for preventing and safeguarding the risk of groundwater contamination from leachate.

Published: July 2024

This study investigates how user-generated and firm-created content could help small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) become more competitive and responsive. The study used cross-sectional and survey methods to target SMEs with a digital presence in Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, and Kano. Cochran's sampling for unknown populations helped estimate the sample size of 385 respondents. These 385 SMEs must be online via Facebook marketing, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok advertisements, or corporate websites. Emails, Google surveys, and physical delivery were used to collect data; Cronbach's alpha coefficient was then used to verify the reliability of the research instrument with values greater than 0.7 for every construct. By allowing SMEs more control over their brand story and more successful interaction with their target market, firm-created content increases their competitiveness. It also helps SMEs quickly adjust to market changes using quick communication and fast changes. User-generated material increases competitiveness by using accurate consumer comments and encouraging additional participation. Real-time feedback helps SMEs immediately meet consumer demands and change their approach as needed, improving responsiveness. The study recommended that SMEs actively support user-generated content and employ analytical tools and efficient monitoring to raise responsiveness and competitiveness. By using these dynamic traits, SMEs could meet market needs, stay flexible, and experience long-term success.

Discussion of Spaces as Palimpsest Through an Architectural Design Competition Project: The Case of Student City Complex in New Belgrade
Authors: Müştak Sevindik Senem
Published: July 2024

Since their foundation, cities have been in constant change as physical spaces that directly reflect the lives of their inhabitants. The numerous layerings that urban spaces have undergone throughout their history and the continuity of this layering in a space has a palimpsest quality. This study discusses the spatial dimension of the palimpsest concept through the winning project from an international architectural design competition. In this competition, which created an international platform for discussion, the design approaches of the projects in the award group were comparatively evaluated within the framework of the palimpsest concept. As a result of the evaluation, it was concluded that using the palimpsest nature of cities, especially in historical areas, as an input is a design approach that produces holistic solutions in many aspects, such as protection of the space’s spirit, sustainability of collective memory and coexistence with the past.
Keywords: Palimpsest, Belgrade, international architectural design competition, urban memory, adaptive reuse.

Authors: Ekinci Dağtekin Emine
Published: July 2024

Located in the central part of the Southeastern Anatolian region, Urfa is a multi-layered and multi-cultural city that bears the traces of many states and principalities to the present day. The city, at the crossroads of Eastern and Western civilisations, has religious buildings belonging to different faiths. It is known that there were 34 mosques in the city in the 16th century and 22 mosques in the 17th century. The Pazar Mosque, which is the subject of this study, is located in the traditional Kovacı Arcade in Urfa Haşimiye Square. Kovacı Arcade with which the mosque has become integrated is made up of indoor and outdoor shops. The fact that the mosque has always been preferred for special occasions such as Friday Prayers and Salaat Al Eid for religious rituals and the fact that shopping has been done before and after such religious services have enhanced the appeal of the mosque along with its surroundings. However, this situation, had led the way for various additions to be made to the shops and the structure itself which in turn had given rise to a change in its original form. The aim of the study is to convey the informed and uninformed interventions that the mosque had been subjected to in relation to its use from the year 1987 when it had been registered as a listed building and the year 2023 and also to convey the approaches undertaken for the mosque for which the damages and problems have been documented within 2012 under the consultancy of the author.
Architectural Promenade and MAXXI Museum
Authors: Canbakal Ataoğlu Nihan
Published: July 2024

There exists disagreement over the content, purpose, and form of museums, which can be traced back to the Greek temples of antiquity. There is, however, consensus over how museums should be organized, display their art, and circulate their collection. Le Corbusier's concept of the promenade was defined to analyze the circulation setup of the MAXXI museum, which attracts attention with its design in contemporary museology. In this study, the components of the promenade setup for the MAXXI Museum were identified by analyzing photographic sequences taken from the perspective of a mobile observer. To bring out the current museum circulation design, the MAXXI Museum promenade layout was analyzed using spatial experiences, observations, syntactic analysis techniques, and semantic analysis. The purpose of the study is to shed light on how the circulation structure of modern spaces is changing through an analysis concept of a promenade. This brand-new museum area provides a spatial journey with surprises.

Published: July 2024

Referred to as “the disaster of the century”, Kahramanmaraş earthquakes have exposed the significant seismic vulnerability of many buildings in Türkiye. The February 6, Kahramanmaraş earthquakes, which are the focus of this study, had a very wide impact area, and high intensity, and the limited number of expert teams, resulted in insufficient damage assessment studies. This study aims to examine the suitability of the RYTEİE method for application in Türkiye and to assess the parameters of the method used during the February 6, Kahramanmaraş earthquakes. Data obtained from damage assessment studies revealed critical issues, such as improper establishment of the relationship between buildings and the ground, non-compliance with relevant regulations, and a lack of adequate inspection. Accordingly, the necessity of interdisciplinary cooperation for all structures was emphasized in the study. Considering the earthquakes that cause loss of life and property, this study aims to contribute to the literature.
