Related Humor is More Beneficial than Self-Disparaging Humor in Primary Chinese Teaching: Evidences from Learning Outcomes and Motivation
Authors: Zhou Weichen , Lee Jun Choi
Published: November 2024

Chinese language instruction is a valued primary education component, and educators have consistently sought methods to enhance teaching efficacy. While research has documented the numerous benefits of humor in the classroom, its application in primary school Chinese language education remains relatively unexplored. This study examined the comparative effectiveness of two humor approaches—related humor and self-disparaging humor—employed by teachers in primary school Chinese classes. A within-subjects design was adopted, with 45 primary school students participating in two Chinese lessons taught by the same instructor using different humor styles. Learning outcomes (measured by test scores) and motivation (assessed through self-reported questionnaires) were evaluated following each lesson. Additionally, informal semi-structured interviews were conducted upon completion of both lessons. Results indicated that related humor outperformed self-disparaging humor in terms of learning outcomes, student motivation, and overall student perception. These findings suggest that the strategic integration of related humor holds significant potential for enhancing teaching effectiveness in primary Chinese education. Future research should delve deeper into the specific advantages and limitations of humor in this context

Despite having many dashboards to display large-scale real-time data in this big data era, there is a shortage of user-friendly dashboards in Asian countries, indicating the importance of examining the factors that make a dashboard effective. This literature gap in dashboard usage has created the ground for this rapid review. This study followed a Google Scholar and PubMed search for a rapid review of 8 health-related dashboard articles taken from 33 articles following the step-by-step screening process, where some critical exclusion and inclusion criteria were maintained. The first finding of this study is that there are a few relevant articles available in Asian countries that match the inclusion criteria of the study focusing on usability and user satisfaction while using health-related dashboards. The second finding is that user satisfaction is one of the essential components for any effective health-related dashboard. The third finding considers easy-to-use, relevant, and accurate content, the right object to display data, an interactive dashboard, increased work efficiency, simplicity, patient care, and data quality as the factors of a user-friendly health-related dashboard. Finally, this study revealed that the dashboard on the web and different access levels have better usability.
ANALISIS PENGARUH TOTAL PANJANG ELEKTRODA BATANG TERHADAP PENTANAHAN DENGAN MENGGUNAKAN METODE WENNER DAN DRIVEN ROD
Authors: Zaldi Farham Muhammad , Kali Agustinus , Martdiansyah Martdiansyah , Khairunnisa Khairunnisa
Published: November 2024

This research discusses the influence of electrode depth, number of electrodes and the influence of the Wenner and Driven Rod methods on reducing the value of grounding resistance. The ground electrode is a conductor that is embedded in the earth and makes direct contact with the earth, where the ground electrode is used as a grounding system tool if a disturbance occurs in the electric power system. The method used is a quantitative method, namely a method that uses research data resulting from direct observation, where the data is produced in the form of numbers that will be analyzed. The results obtained were that the influence of the depth of the grounding electrode was not effective enough, because the soil used had moisture that was not much different between a depth of 1 meter and 2 meters. The effect of the number of grounding electrodes used is very effective because the resistance value obtained is lower. The effect of the Wenner method produces a greater reduction compared to the Driven Rod method, Wenner experienced a decrease of 52.4 ohms on dry soil and 33.4 ohms on wet soil and Driven Rod experienced a decrease in resistance value of 49.7 ohms on dry soil and 29.23 ohms on wet ground. The conclusion obtained is that the total electrodes used are more influential in reducing the grounding resistance value than the length of the depth of the implanted electrodes and the Wenner method is better in reducing the grounding resistance value than the Driven Rod method.

Authors: Sasmita Hari Otang , Saleh Amiruddin , Priatna Wahyu Budi , Muljono Pudji
Published: November 2024

Digital development in rural areas has become a driving force in increasing agricultural and rural economic productivity. However, the lack of digital communication competence among farmers remains a problem, causing market information asymmetry and an inability to effectively utilize information and communication technology (ICT) in the agricultural sector to increase business profits. Therefore, it is important to examine the use of ICT in the agricultural sector in 19- to 39-year-old age groups (or millennial farmers), as this generation is considered closest to digital technology. This study used a survey method with 345 millennial farmers in Bogor, Indonesia, and data were analyzed using partial least squares-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). The results of this study indicate that digital communication competence, as reflected by motivation, knowledge, and digital skills, plays a crucial role in enhancing the performance of millennial farmers both directly and indirectly through ICT utilization. Farmers possessing superior digital communication competencies exhibit a greater inclination to employ technology for communication, information acquisition, idea dissemination, and marketing in their agricultural pursuits, resulting in more informed decision making and potentially improved productivity and profitability. The results contribute to the understanding of the role of digital communication competence and ICT utilization in enhancing farmers’ performance.

Published: November 2024

The article presents information about new locations Stipa pennata growing on the territory of the reclaimed dump of the coal mine «Izykhsky». The status of the species on the territory of the Republic of Khakassia is a limited species. An analysis of geobotanical descriptions involving Stipa pennata is given. The species was found in the composition of coarse turf feather grass steppe, plantations of black poplar and elm with grass cover, plantations of maple with licorice-pea-grass cover. Stipa pennata grows together with sodominant cereals: for areas more moistened – Poa pratensis, Calamagrostis epigeios, for drier – Stipa capillata, Poa angustifolia, Festuca valesiaca. The species in the conditions of dumps is able to grow on flat steppe, meadow-steppe areas and forest plantations, and in the latter with less abundance due to competition from other plant species and lack of light. In open areas, the species is able to dominate phytocoenoses. The article provides recommendations for the conservation, reintroduction and monitoring of rare species on the territory of the dumps of open-pit mines of the Republic of Khakassia.

Published: November 2024

The study of the adaptive capabilities of cultivated woody plants in the Komi Republic is carried out by the staff of the Botanical Garden of the Institute of Biology of the Komi Scientific Center of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The harsh climatic conditions of the region remain the main restraining factor affecting the successful introduction of many woody plants into culture. In the modern world, the problem of global warming is very relevant, in particular, the tendency of changing the air temperature towards its increase in the European part of the Russian Federation affects the growth and development of introduced plants. The objects for studying the effect of climate warming in the Komi Republic on the growth and development of introduced plants were two species of the genus Cotoneaster Medik.: Cotoneaster laxiflorus J. Jacq. ex Lindl. and C. integerrimus Medik. It was found that an increase in air temperature leads to a reduction in the period of shoot growth in the studied species and allows plants to undergo the processes of shoot lignification in a timely manner and prepare for the autumn-winter period, which indicates successful acclimatization of the introduced species. In addition, a change in climatic conditions in the introduction area is reflected in the shift in the timing of the onset and end of the main phenological phases to earlier dates. Thus, the ongoing climate warming currently has a positive effect on the success of cultivating the studied species of the genus Cotoneaster in the Komi Republic.
The image of Neoptolemus in the genealogy of the Molossian Aeacidae
Authors: Kazarov Sarkis Surenovich
Published: November 2024

Some regions of Ancient Hellas, located on the border of the barbarian and Greek worlds and lagging behind in political and cultural terms, sought to prove their «Greek» origin in one way or another. This was especially true of the royal dynasties, which, deriving their genealogy from mythical heroes, thereby substantiated their claims to Greek origin. A similar example is the Molossian dynasty of the Aeacids, ruling in Epirus, which traced its origins to the mythical hero Neoptolemus, son of Achilles. This happened at a time when Epirus and the ruling dynasty emerged from the historical shadows and began to participate more actively in pan-Greek affairs. The main source for this was the stories from the Trojan War, telling of the return of the heroes after the defeat of Troy. Often, representatives of the royal dynasty were given the names of mythical heroes at birth, which was supposed to serve as confirmation of their high origin. Over time, the genealogy of the Molossian kings was supplemented and expanded by introducing new mythological persons. During the reign of King Pyrrhus, his wife Lanassa was included in the heroic genealogy of the Molossian kings. The name Neoptolemus was also borne by two real persons in Epirus history, but their fates were not happy.

Published: November 2024

A steady trend in recent decades has been the strengthening of the mathematical component in the training of specialists in various economic areas and profiles. This trend is growing due to the digitalization of the economy and the widespread introduction of artificial intelligence systems. This article analyzes a complex set of problems associated with the formation of mathematical competencies of graduates of economic universities when training personnel for the digital economy. The authors note that obtaining these competencies is associated both with issues of the quality of specialist training and with the career expectations of graduates. The mathematical cycle disciplines are basic in the training of economists and managers. Confident mastery of mathematical fundamentals allows a student to successfully master economic disciplines at undergraduate and graduate level, making him competitive in the labor market. Fundamental mathematical disciplines are not of a clearly applied economic nature, but at the same time many of the concepts and methods contained in them can be used in solving practical economic problems. This work is devoted to a description of the relevant sections of the basic mathematics course and a discussion of the creation of an electronic educational manual for the study of these economic applications. The study examines the implementation of the process of constructing a network version of an electronic textbook, identifies its structural components, and provides a justification for an integrated approach to its design. An algorithm for selecting and constructing the content of the manual is proposed, thesauri of the basic disciplines of the mathematical cycle are built, connections are established between them, as well as with thesauri of specialized disciplines, a semantic model of the manual is developed, presented in the form of a directed graph, which determines the topics of problems with economic content. The materials of this work can form the basis for the creation of electronic textbooks in various subject areas.

Published: November 2024

The article substantiates the importance for modern society of solving the problem of preparing a university student as a person and a specialist in a harmonious unity of moral and professional qualities, and substantiates the possibility of such training within the framework of personality-oriented education. Based on the ideas of E.V. Bondarevskaya, V.V. Serikov, I.S. Yakimanskaya about the student as the goal of education, the idea of recognizing the value of the student as a subject of education is revealed, the essence of which lies in the requirement for the teacher to recognize the student as the goal of education and the goal of his own development, to recognize his moral significance, the dignity of his personality, his right to respect, to recognition of his uniqueness. Based on the ideas of V.V. Serikov about personal experience, the idea of developing the student's personal experience is revealed, the essence of which lies in the teacher's orientation toward creating conditions for the development of the worldview and value orientations of students that determine their actions and deeds. Based on the ideas of V.P. Zinchenko on «living knowledge» reveals the idea of recognizing the personal meaning of knowledge, the essence of which lies in the teacher’s orientation toward developing students’ ability to give meaning to the «world of embodied knowledge» that the student masters in the process of cognitive activity, introducing him to the «world of embodied values», giving knowledge, which becomes «living knowledge», personal meaning.
Modern China's “Cat Slave” Culture and Its Underlying Factors
Authors: Li Yudi , Liao Wang
Published: November 2024

In modern China, the rise of “Cat Slave” culture represents a significant shift in human-animal relationships, particularly within urban environments. Once valued primarily for their practical role, cats have become emotional companions for young urban professionals seeking fulfillment in increasingly isolated lifestyles. This thesis examines the historical evolution, social dynamics, and key factors that have contributed to the growth of “Cat Slave” culture. By analyzing the symbolic significance of cats and the influence of social media and consumerism, this study reveals how the culture reflects both personal emotional needs and broader societal trends. The findings suggest that “Cat Slave” culture is more than a temporary trend—it offers a response to the challenges of urban life by providing emotional fulfillment and identity formation. Furthermore, the commercialization of this culture highlights how emotional connections with pets have been transformed into marketable opportunities, shaping modern consumer behavior.
Ostensible Refusals in Mandarin Chinese
Authors: Zhang Fenghua
Published: November 2024

This study investigates ostensible refusals in response to four types of stimulus speech acts (request, suggestion, invitation and offer). Based on the collected data, the study aims to make an overall analysis of ostensible refusal speech acts in Chinese language and explores the basic guiding principle that underlies the interactional process of ostensible refusing. Consequently, it briefly revisits the ostensible refusals in Chinese context. The results show that ostensible refusals can exist in all four types of initiating speech acts, among which the ostensible refusals to request and suggestion are rarely investigated. Overall, ostensible refusals rely on both linguistic and non-linguistic (prosodic and paralinguistic features) devices. In terms of manner and pragmatic efforts of ostensible refusing, they vary slightly from type to type. Underlying the ostensible refusal-negotiation is the dynamic balance principle which guides interactants to employ different pragmatic strategies in ostensible refusing.

Authors: Hang Du , Zhao Chen
Published: November 2024

The applications of digital technology in cultural heritage have subtly and profoundly influenced the breadth and depth of public aesthetics. The objective of the study is to explore how diverse digital technologies impact public aesthetics, taking the digital dissemination and applications of Dunhuang's Mogao Grottoes as an example. Also, it anticipates the potential influence on public aesthetics of the ongoing evolution of technology inc. AIGC and its integration with cultural heritage. The results of the study revealed that digitalization applied in cultural heritage enhances the public aesthetics, while under the rapid development of technology, there are potential concerns of the aesthetic homogeneity, preconceived notions, and the over-emphasis on entertainment value. Future generations might reduce appreciation for authentic, in-person experiences and lead to fixed stereotypes of cultural heritage. Therefore, the thoughtful and balanced integration could better foster the public aesthetics.

Authors: Ombella John S
Published: November 2024

The ICGLR sub-region is naturally endowed with plenty of resources such as waters, forests and minerals. Such resources present a great potential to contribute towards local communities’ (mine-host communities) well-being when properly harnessed. Minerals for example which are finite by nature calls for robust legal and institutional framework if at all Mine-host communities (MHCs) are to benefit from them. Inversely however, mining is shown to plunge MHCs into poverty vicious cycle through steering civil unrest, military coup detat and massive displacement that triggers food insecurity concerns. Minerals instead of contributing towards their socio-economic advancement are instead contributing to human rights violation, in particular the right to food. This work is a product of desk review of primary documents such as; international conventions, protocols, declarations, case laws and sporadic reference to state laws. As such, the study confined itself to the ICGLR framework where protocols and declarations relevant to mineral resources, land and good governance are reviewed. Also, the study randomly picks and refers to domestic laws of respective ICGLR member states in framing up arguments. Review of primary documents is complimented by a qualitative review and analysis of secondary documents such as; journal articles, books, newspaper articles, internet sources to name but a few. The review and analysis presented in themes in this paper finds that weak legal framework in the ICGLR sub-region is contributory to gross violation of MHCs right to food. The study recommends for reforms of the ICGLR legal framework with the view to maximize the guarantee of MHCs’ right to food.

Authors: Zheng Wenxuan , Yang Mingxuan , Huang Decheng , Jin Meizhizi
Published: November 2024

This study presents a new deep learning method for optimizing monoclonal antibody (mAb) production processes using a hybrid Convolutional Neural Network-Long Short-Term Memory (CNN-LSTM) architecture. The model was developed and validated using industry data from 50 products over 18 months. The proposed design outperforms statistical models, machine learning algorithms, and other deep learning models, achieving a root mean squared error of 0.412 g/L and R^ 2 value of 0.947 for mAb titer prediction. Feature importance analysis identified temperature, dissolved oxygen, and pH as the most critical parameters affecting mAb production. In silico optimization, experiments demonstrated a 28.1% increase in mAb titer and a 27.9% improvement in volumetric productivity. The model's robustness and generalizability were validated across cell lines and bioreactor scales (50L to 2000L). A novel Dynamic Trajectory Similarity (DTS) score was introduced to quantify the model's ability to capture process dynamics, yielding a score of 0.923. This approach offers significant potential for enhancing process understanding, optimizing production efficiency, and facilitating scale-up in industrial mAb manufacturing. The study also discusses limitations, including interpretability challenges and the need for uncertainty quantification in future work.

Tourism development can involve the participation of stakeholders from both the government, the community and the private sector or what is often referred to as collaboration so that it can have a positive impact. The research method uses qualitative methods, with a research focus (1) Sustainable fisheries resource management model through the nyatran tradition as local wisdom Collaboration of actors in local wisdom-based ecotourism management (2) Programs and activities as well as efforts made by the government and local institutions in utilizing and managing ecotourism and local wisdom values and existing local potential (3) Determining opportunities for local wisdom-based ecotourism management can be maintained and utilized in policy formulation. Qualitative data processing was carried out using the ‘cross check’ approach of informants to provide a deeper understanding of the various statements made by respondents, as well as based on the results of observations and secondary data review. Ecotourism began when the negative impact on conventional tourism activities was felt. This negative impact is not only stated and proven by environmental experts but also culturalists, community leaders and tourism business people. Impacts in the form of environmental damage, uncontrolled influence on local culture, reduced role of local communities and business competition that began to threaten the environment, culture and economy of local communities. The government has collaborated in the development of ecotourism-based tourism. Ecotourism is one of the strategies in mobilizing the community to participate actively in sustainable tourism development by making the community the main actors in tourism development as well as efforts in preserving the environment both natural and cultural.

The results of the self-assessment of the school principals on how they evaluate their administrative and supervisory practices revealed that most of them have excellent practices and management. The results of the principals’ assessment jived with the teacher’s classroom management assessment. The result of the focus group discussion revealed that on some items, the FGD respondents supported the assessment results of the principals; however, there were also notable and interesting responses made by the teachers that tended to invalidate the claims or responses of the school heads. Such incongruity is a clear manifestation of a problem, such as insufficient involvement of teachers in planning instructional programs, decision-making process, delegation of tasks and others, and inadequate staff and pupil development programs. In light of the findings and limitations of the study, it is recommended that (1) a similar study that is wider and more comprehensive should be conducted to validate these findings, (2) create policies that will seriously involve teachers, especially in areas that concern them like but not limited to planning instructional programs, identifying and setting goals, involving teacher fully in all decisions related to their work, curriculum development, student development and staff development, and (3) school administrators should also use the Leadership Enhancement and Development (LEaD) Action Plan as reference to enhance leadership practices and classroom management.

This study aims to investigate the effect of the implementation of the Full Day School system on the learning motivation of Aqidah Akhlak class XI students at MA Al-Khairiyah NW Rajek during the 2024/2025 academic year. The research method used is ex facto research. Ex-post facto research examines cause-and-effect relationships that are not manipulated or not treated by researchers. The research sample consists of two groups, namely Group 1, namely Class XI IPA 1 and Group 2, namely Class XI IPA 2 which follows Full Day School. Data were collected through a questionnaire that measured the level of student learning motivation in Aqidah Akhlak lessons after the implementation of Full Day School. Data analysis was conducted using statistical techniques. The results showed that there was a significant difference in Aqidah Akhlak learning motivation between Group 1, namely Class XI IPA 1 and Group 2, namely Class XI IPA 2 after the implementation of full day school. It can be seen from the significance level value of 0.023 <0.05, meaning that Ha is accepted and Ho is rejected. It can also be seen from the comparison of r count with r table, namely 2.497> 0.444, meaning Ha is accepted and Ho is rejected. Based on the results of the data processing above, the Mean Different value is 9, 600, the value is positive, meaning that the influence arising from full day school on learning motivation is positive.

Dolor dorsal ¿bandera roja?
Authors: Galende Rodriguez Laura , Dominguez Gonzalez Mª Nieves
Published: November 2024

Puntos clave
Las características de las dorsalgias y el modo en que evolucionan son determinantes en la delimitación de su origen.
Para tener un grado de certeza suficiente a la hora de atribuir el dolor a una causa funcional, tensional o mecánica se debe haber descartado con seguridad otras, como las inflamatorias, oncológicas o neuropáticas.
Los tumores medulares pueden aparecer en el parénquima de la médula espinal debutando clínicamente por dolor dorsal progresivo y déficits neurológicos.
El diagnóstico se realiza mediante RM.
Las consecuencias de no diagnosticarlo pueden presentarse en forma de lesión medular completa.
Un exantema inesperado

Resumen
La faringitis aguda y la faringoamigdalitis constituyen un frecuente motivo de consulta en Atención Primaria, siendo el manejo y abordaje en la mayoría de las ocasiones exclusivos de este ámbito. Es importante el diagnóstico etiológico por su implicación en el tratamiento antibiótico. En el caso de las faringitis agudas, las causas más frecuentes son víricas (adenovirus, rinovirus, coronavirus, parainfluenza, virus de Epstein-Barr, virus respiratorio sincitial, entre otros). Entre las causas bacterianas, el estreptococo betahemolítico del grupo A (EBHGA) es el responsable del 5-10% de los casos en adultos y del 20-30% en niños.

El diagnóstico es clínico y es recomendable utilizar alguna escala de predicción clínica que haga más probable la etiología estreptocócica, siendo la escala de Centor la más recomendada. Se aconseja el uso de pruebas antigénicas rápidas de Strep A (grado de recomendación B), con una sensibilidad superior al 90% y una especificidad aproximada del 95%, cuando el paciente presenta dos o más de los criterios Centor, ya que aunque los cuatro criterios de Centor sean positivos, menos del 60% de los pacientes tendrán una infección estreptocócica.

La prescripción de antibióticos ante este tipo de infecciones obliga también a conocer las posibles reacciones adversas que pueden surgir, y a establecer un diagnóstico diferencial con otras entidades similares. En el caso del rash aminopenicilínico, la retirada del fármaco causante y el control de la evolución serían suficientes para la resolución del cuadro.
Insuficiencia cardíaca: cuatro artículos y una reflexión
Authors: Cortés Pastor Gemma , de Gispert Uriach Blanca
Published: November 2024

En 2023, en la revista JAMA, se publicó un interesante artículo sobre variaciones en la etiología de la insuficiencia cardiaca (IC) según el nivel económico de los países1. Se trata de un estudio multicéntrico en el que participaron 40 países con diferentes niveles de ingresos. De forma global, la causa más común (38,25%) fue la cardiopatía isquémica (CI), seguida por la hipertensión arterial (HTA), con un 20,2%, la miocardiopatía dilatada (15,4%), y las valvulopatías (reumática [4,9%] y no reumática [4,1%]). Al analizar por grupos, la causa más común en los países de ingresos bajos fue la HTA, mientras que en el resto fue la CI. La proporción de IC debida a valvulopatías fue mayor en los países con ingresos bajos respecto al resto, siendo responsables en mayor medida las reumáticas. Estos resultados deberían tenerse en consideración en las planificaciones de prevención de la IC.

The standard surgical procedure for rectal prolapse is laparoscopic and robotic-assisted ventral rectopexy using prolene mesh. However, very rarely there may be patients with incarcerated rectal prolapse, a condition which isurgent and presents a challenge to surgeons.We present a case of a large incarcerated rectal prolapse treated using the open method, by posterior rectopexy, using prolene mesh.
