Authors: Zoubi Mohammad AL , ALfaris Yasmeen , Fraihat Baha , Otoum Ali , Nawasreh Maher , ALfandi Ashraf
Published: March 2023

This study's objective is to analyze the factors that influence whether or not small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) use business intelligence. Based on an exhaustive assessment of the literature, the study offers a model dependent on the diffusion of innovation and augmented with factors expressing the idea of project management maturity (PMM). The research applied structural equation modelling (SEM) to examine data obtained from 112 Jordanian company workers. The findings showed that the adoption of business intelligence has a positive and significant relationship to the complexity, compatibility, and relative advantage of business intelligence; the level of project management maturity has a significant effect on the level of relative advantage, compatibility, and complexity; and the level of project management maturity is significantly associated with the change management and knowledge sharing practices in SMEs. However, we contend that further study has to be carried out, particularly in the context of developing nations, in order to get a comprehensive understanding of how different SMEs may effectively deploy and make use of business intelligence.

Published: March 2023

The current study tries to identify the impact of COVID-19 on human resource management practices, business processes, and organizational sustainability. Furthermore, it identified the impact of sustainable HRM practices on hypermarkets' sustainability. The outbreaks of COVID-19 have considerably impacted organizations and businesses all over the world. Most companies were not ready to face such force majeure. Moreover, like everywhere else in the world COVID-19 has significantly affected HRM functions and organizational sustainability in the organizations in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. The research is based on a survey of 363 HR practitioners working in hypermarkets in the GCC countries to examine the impact of the pandemic COVID-19 on organizational sustainability. The findings reveal the negative impact of COVID-19 on human resource management practices, business processes, and organizational sustainability. Furthermore, they identify the positive impact of sustainable HRM practices and effective business processes on hypermarkets' sustainability. Finally, the results show that effective business processes and sustainable HRM practices annihilate the negative effect of COVID-19 on organizational sustainability in hypermarkets operating in the GCC countries. This study is unique since it is conducted during the pandemic period and analyses the negative impact of Covid-19 on organizations in the GCC countries. Moreover, it suggests solutions to minimize the negative effect of COVID-19 on organizational sustainability.

The invention of “Wessex” is described by hardy in his preface to Far from the Madding Crowd in which, he first re- introduced the old word to give territorial definition. Travelling into Hardy, I wish to argue that place ought to receive special attention. Most of the writers have written their works with deep concerned with their native special attention. Place needs to be understood as something local, regional and real, despite the complexities and difficulties involved in the use of such terms. Generally, places themselves could have the sort of centrality in literary studies that has more frequently been given to notions such as author, character, text, historical context and narration etc. This paper wants to Geo - (topo) graphically appreciates the correspondence between Wessex and Hardy’s relationship in an imaginary and cartographical mode.
Across Space and Time: Commonalities in Natyashastra, The Republic, and Poetics
Authors: Dr. Pooja Agarwal
Published: March 2023

By the time Chandragupta Maurya established the Mauryan Empire in 322 B.C., Plato, the Greek philosopher had already envisaged an ideal commonwealth and had captured its principles in his The Republic, banishing all poets from his ideal state; and Aristotle, who started off as a student of Plato, had already presented to the world a clear rebuttal to Plato in his treatise, Poetics. There doesn’t seem to be much evidence to support the hypothesis that Bharata’s Natyasastra written sometime between 2nd century B.C. and 2nd century A.D. was influenced by Aristotle’s Poetics, or that, since the date of Natyasastra’s publication is so uncertain, Natyasastra in some way had an influence on Poetics. But this lack of evidence does not undermine the fact that in the Mauryan period (322 B.C. to 185 B.C.), there was an eager influx of Greek diplomats and explorers like Megasthenesin the subcontinent, who were not only political and economic emissaries, but also cultural ambassadors. Neither does this lack of evidence undermine the possibility of an influence, on either side of the theorists. But the case under consideration is not the existence of any physical evidence that could establish a connection, but rather that connection or no connection, Plato’s Republic, Aristotle’s Poetics and Bharata’s Natyasastra have a common thread. All the three works are in some way or other an exposition on the imitative art of poetry and drama, and inevitably, each is linked to the other, if in nothing else, then at least in terms of comparative analysis.

Published: March 2023

This paper reports the effect of convective heat on plantain (Musa paradisiaca). Ripe and unripe plantains were bought from Eremi-adale local market in Ado-Ekiti, Nigeria. The samples were washed, peeled, sliced into mass sizes of 20g each, and load into the chamber of a fabricated convective dryer. Samples were removed from the chamber after every hour for measurement to determine their moisture losses. The plantain samples were dried at various drying time and with regulated drying temperatures of 333K, 343K, and 353K. Results of the laboratory analysis review that, the viable microbial counts decrease when the drying temperatures increase. Ripe samples were found to have higher percentage of crude fibre, fat and protein, than the unripe samples while unripe samples have higher percentage of carbohydrate and ash than the ripe samples, at the drying temperatures. It was equally reported from the proximate analysis test that, the percentage amount of moisture content, carbohydrate and crude fibre decreases when the regulated drying temperatures increase while the amount of protein, fat and ash increases with an increase of the regulated drying temperatures.

Diversidad entre rejas: Estereotipos e identidad de género en la ficción televisiva Orange is the New Black
Authors: Eguskiza Sesumaga Leyre
Published: March 2023

La multiplicidad de plataformas y canales en la llamada Tercera Edad De Oro de la Televisión ha generado una expansión de la oferta ficcional, donde tienen cabida nuevos formatos, historias y personajes. Con un elenco mayoritariamente femenino, Orange is the New Black acerca a la audiencia la vida de un grupo de mujeres en prisión. Este trabajo de investigación ahonda en la representación de la identidad de género de sus protagonistas, determinando qué factores influyen en la manera de retratarlas. El análisis en profundidad de catorce personajes femeninos permite detectar ciertos estereotipos y valores asociados al tradicional modelo patriarcal. Sin embargo, la inicial representación de los cánones sociales y de belleza imperantes, personificados a través de la protagonista (Piper Chapman), abre la puerta a múltiples modelos de feminidad y a la visibilización de colectivos minoritarios.

Published: March 2023

Los personajes adolescentes tienen una notable presencia en las series de televisión actuales y, especialmente, ocupando roles principales. En su construcción intervienen una serie de estereotipos reconocibles, aunque presentan también ciertos rasgos de los problemas y situaciones del público adolescente al que se dirigen. De esta manera, facilitan el proceso de identificación con los espectadores. Con el objetivo de reflexio-nar sobre la estereotipada imagen de los adolescentes en la ficción seriada, poner en valor la Teen TV estadounidense actual y abordar el universo serial de Netflix, en este trabajo se analizará a dos protagonistas de famosas series de la plataforma de VOD: Hanna Baker, de Por Trece razones,víctima de bullyingen su instituto, y Sam Gardner, de Atípico, un adolescente con trastorno del espectro autista. Para ello, se les aplicará una plantilla de análisis de personajes de carácter cualitativo como persona y como rol basada en las teorías de los autores Francesco Casetti y Federico Di Chio. Desde es-tas consideraciones, este trabajo pretende realizar una aproximación al tratamiento de los personajes adolescentes en las series de Netflix dirigidas a los propios adolescen-tes y que, además, exploran problemáticas sociales complejas y actuales.

PROGRAMA ACELERA NO ESTADO DE GOIÁS: LÓGICA DA FLEXIBILIZAÇÃO SUBTENDIDA AOS INTERESSES DO INSTITUTO AYRTON SENNA (IAS)
Authors: Brazorotto Cíntia Magno , De Sousa Flávio Bezerra
Published: March 2023

O presente artigo tem por objetivo debater as relações de trabalho docente observadas no Convênio de Cooperação assinado entre a Secretaria de Estado de Educação do Estado de Goiás (SEDUC-GO) e o Instituto Ayrton Senna (IAS) por meio do programa Acelera, cuja finalidade está na implementação de ações voltadas para classes de correção de fluxo em escolas do Ensino Fundamental I. A hipótese orientadora reside na presença da racionalidade mercado-empresarial para o estabelecimento de políticas educacionais que se distanciam da função pública e amplificam a flexibilidade das formas de contratação docente. A análise insere-se no contexto das políticas neoliberais reverberadas sob o prisma da Nova Gestão Pública (NGP), engendrada no Brasil a partir dos anos 1990. O delineamento metodológico utiliza-se da análise documental e bibliográfica sobre o convênio firmado entre o IAS e a SEDUC-GO, no período compreendido entre 2012 e 2014. Corrobora-se para a existência de elementos que certificam o estabelecimento de formas de contratação que tangenciam de modo intencional as normativas e privilegiam a precariedade do trabalho docente em prol dos objetivos institucionais das entidades representantes dos interesses externos ao direito à educação.

CONDIÇÕES DA OFERTA EDUCATIVA EM ESCOLAS ESTADUAIS DE GOIÁS QUE ADOTARAM O PROGRAMA ACELERA BRASIL: IMPLICAÇÕES PARA O DIREITO HUMANO À EDUCAÇÃO
Authors: Kanno Danilo , Domiciano Cassia
Published: March 2023

Neste artigo localizamos e selecionamos as escolas que ofertavam os anos iniciais do ensino fundamental em Goiás e tiveram o Acelera Brasil como programa de regularização do fluxo escolar para estudantes em defasagem idade-série no intervalo de 2007 a 2014, intervalo que extrapola o tempo de vigência com atuação direta do Instituto Ayrton Senna formalizada por meio de Convênio de Cooperação Técnico Pedagógica n. 30/2012 que iniciou em 2012 e findou em 2014. O artigo deriva de pesquisa em fontes documentais, sendo as escolas analisadas intencionalmente selecionadas a partir dos microdados do censo escolar. Esta investigação vincula-se ao projeto “Análise do mapeamento das estratégias de privatização da educação básica no brasil: atores, programas e consequências para a educação pública”, financiado pela FAPESP. Objetivou-se analisar o Acelera nas escolas que tiveram o programa a partir do que Garcia et al (2021) denominaram de condições gerais de oferta de ensino considerando, dependências físicas e disponibilidade de equipamento com vistas a identificar as possíveis implicações para a realização do Direito Humano à Educação (TOMASEVSKI, 2001; 2004; XIMENES, 2014). Indica-se como resultados a permanência da distorção idade-série nas escolas onde o Acelera esteve presente por mais de uma vez e mesmo que se tenha percebido melhores condições infra estruturais das escolas com a presença do Acelera, estas não vieram acompanhadas de melhoria das taxas de distorção idade-série que é o objetivo do Programa. Nesse sentido, entende-se que houve consequências negativas para realização do DHE se consideradas as características fundamentais deste direito, quais sejam, disponibilidade e acessibilidade.

Current measurement method based on integral reconstruction of magnetic rotation angle
Authors: Shui Huasheng , Rong Yufei , Dong Taiji , Sun Yu , Yan Wendi
Published: March 2023

In view of the nonlinear limitation of the sine function on the magnetic rotation angle in the optical current sensor based on the light intensity detection mode, this paper proposes a current measurement method based on the integral reconstruction of the magnetic rotation angle, thus avoiding the large current measurement error caused by the approximate linear measurement of the magnetic rotation angle. In this method, the cosine term in the derivative of the sine signal containing the magnetic rotation angle is eliminated by the constant deformation of the trigonometric function, and then the magnetic rotation angle is reconstructed by integration. The experimental results show that within the current range of 0.20 Arms to 2.40 Arms, the measurement error of the current value of the integral reconstruction method is less than 1.30%, the measurement error is less than the approximate linear measurement method, and there is a good linear relationship between the magnetic rotation angle and the current, with a linearity of 99.987%.

The Use of the Stoic Concept of Phronēsis by Irenaeus and Lactantius
Authors: Kendeffy Gábor
Published: March 2023

The Stoic concept of practical wisdom and the stoic Idea of the necessary conjunction of good and evil implicitly combined by Stoics themselves can be found in the works of early Christian thinkers like Irenaeus, the bishop of Lyons and Lactantius, the African apologist. Both authors tried to reconcile the Stoic and the biblical concepts of wisdom, and both located this hybrid concept in the history of salvation. Irenaeus did this in a somewhat isolated section of his anti-heretic work, Against Heretics. As for Lactantius, he combined them in the Divine Institutes and in the Epitome, with the doctrine expounded by Seneca on the providential training of virtue by the adversaries. These conceptions were incorporated by the African theologian into his dualistic theological system in a very substantial way, serving to give account for why Satan was produced and allowed to operate by God. These are integrated into Lactantius’ idea of divine deception, which is inherent to his doctrine of the two ways.

Published: March 2023

A introdução da lei nº 13.415/2017 e da Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC) causaram profundas mudanças sobre a Educação Básica nacional, refletindo na reformulação dos currículos estaduais e municipais de todo país e na alteração dos conteúdos das disciplinas escolares, em especial da Geografia voltados ao Ensino Fundamental e Médio. O objetivo deste artigo é analisar de forma crítica a implantação destes documentos na rede estadual paulista de Educação, assim como os impactos sobre o ensino de Geografia através dos itinerários formativos no Ensino Médio, além de reflexões e possíveis caminhos para o ensino da Geografia, pautados na compreensão de que o currículo, sua construção e prática não devem estar desassociados do trabalho docente e sua relação na construção coletiva do conhecimento escolar, justamente por tratar-se de um projeto institucional de sociedade. Através de uma leitura dialética do processo histórico de elaboração e reprodução dos documentos, evidenciou-se o contexto político de produção da BNCC e sua rápida inserção na reformulação do currículo Paulista, tendo, a parte voltada ao Ensino Médio, sido inserida durante o contexto de pandemia, onde professores e comunidade escolar demonstravam fragilidade em sua articulação para contestação. A pesquisa também revelou o esvaziamento dos conteúdos da Geografia dentro dos itinerários formativo voltados ao Ensino Médio, trazendo a reflexão sobre a necessidade do reconhecimento dos saberes docentes na elaboração e organização dos conteúdos essenciais para a prática de ensino escolar.
processos educativos vistos do lado de cá e de lá:

Published: March 2023

Artigo resultante de reflexões oriundas de pesquisas, levantamento de dados e de processos de investigação ação participativa no trabalho cotidiano em sala de aula sobre os vários significados da escola nas periferias. Evidencia-se neste processo, vínculos relevantes entre a educação formal e não formal, não raro desconsiderados nas reflexões sobre as escolas e seus papéis em uma sociedade excludente com amplas desigualdades sociais. Refletimos sobre a fundamentalidade dos conceitos trabalho, educação e cotidiano para a organização do trabalho docente nestas instituições e que auxiliam a adensar as relações escola-comunidades. Na sequência, evidenciamos como estas auxiliam a compreender os múltiplos significados da escola constituídos nas periferias na relação dialética entre os sujeitos das comunidades e os profissionais que atuam nas instituições escolares. Tais instituições em bairros periferizados não são meros locais de aprendizagem de conteúdos, constituem também lugares que auxiliam ou dão suporte para que os mesmos r-existam. Finalizamos o trabalho abordando o entrelaçamento entre educação formal e não formal, narrando o caso de uma organização de mulheres negras periferizadas da Cidade de Curitiba/PR e suas lutas para r-existirem com seus filhos em uma sociedade excludente, cujo fundamento se encontra na racialização das relações sociais, expressa nos conflitos por terras e territórios. Concluímos que considerar a escola das áreas periferizadas, das cidades e dos campos, apenas como local de aprendizagem de conhecimentos científicos acaba por ocultar e/ou negar as suas geografias, expressas nas relações sócio territoriais de solidariedade que se estabelecem entre tais comunidades e os profissionais que nela trabalham.

Os eixos rodoviários construídos na Amazônia a partir da década de 1960, ocasionaram mudanças espaciais no que tange à rede urbana, e aos fluxos internamente, fatos que possibilitaram ocupação de áreas de terra firme com a expansão de atividades econômicas, tais como pecuária, mineração e plantação de grãos (arroz, milho e soja), facilitadas por meio de políticas territoriais. No estado do Amazonas, identificam-se essas alterações, principalmente, com a construção das rodovias Transamazônica e Manaus-Porto Velho. São eixos que condicionaram processos de ocupação que, atualmente, continuam como os principais caminhos com um dinamismo de frente pioneira entre os municípios de Lábrea, Humaitá e Apuí. Realizou-se a pesquisa em duas partes: a primeira consistiu em levantamentos bibliográficos; a segunda priorizou trabalhos de campo, realizados entre os dias 17 e 23 de setembro de 2022, durante o qual identificou-se fluxos, redes e um processo de expansão das frentes pioneiras com articulação regional e as frentes já consolidadas nos estados do Pará, Rondônia e Acre.

Published: March 2023

Small-scale construction companies are predominant in developing countries and it is the most hazardous places in construction sites. Accidents mostly occur on construction sites due to a high level of safety ignorance and the nonchalant attitude of workers and management. The research aimed to investigate the actual behavior of workers at the selected sites regarding safety compliance, nutrition, alcohol use and smoking. This is highly necessary due to the high level of reported accidents and fatalities of the workers. And also recommend measures for improving how safety practices are implemented at a construction site. The interview and questionnaire approach was adopted to study the 150 participants. The data were analysed through SPSS. Research shows that 85% of construction workers are non-compliant with safety regulations because of their ignorance, poor safety training and lack of inspectors It was discovered that the majority of the small-scale contractors had no written health and safety policy within their companies and that made the level of understanding of the workers on safety and health policies very low. This has made the workers not care about wearing safety devices. The study was also extended to include behaviors related to food, alcohol and smoking. It was discovered that most of the workers don’t observe simple hygiene and eat junk meals at the site. They smoke and share cigarettes on the site, not knowing that it was a means of sharing communicable diseases.

Authors: Zeng Qing
Published: March 2023

At the end of 2020, the time of the COVID-19 outbreak, a word suddenly became particularly popular, called "involution". Originally, this is a sociological term that refers to a social phenomenon in which the competition for social resources increases when resources are limited and there are no incremental resources. But as soon as the word appeared, it was almost immediately associated with the field of education. More and more people are trying to improve themselves by taking extracurricular classes, studying abroad, and so on, in order to get more educational and social resources, which is undoubtedly a kind of "involution". Under the current situation of educational involution, this paper will study the phenomenon of educational involution in depth, which will help to understand the concept of educational involution, its causes, solutions, and future development trends. This paper examines the causes of educational involution from three perspectives, including historical, economic, and social causes. Then, it provides two suggestions. The first suggestion is that students need to have a clear understanding of their preferences and goals and make themselves as a reference for academic progress rather than other peers; the second suggestion is to expand educational resources to reduce educational involution. Finally, it is speculated that the trend of education after involution is that the criteria for evaluating students will become diversified, and scores will no longer be the only evaluation criterion.

Authors: Zhang Lu
Published: March 2023

The excessive burden of students' homework is a drawback in the process of China's education development, and the state has enacted a series of policies for reducing students learning burden over the years. The "double reduction" policy to be introduced in 2021 is a crucial strategic choice for China's education on the path of high-quality development. For China's education to move forward, the "double reduction" policy in 2021 is essential. It introduces new standards for schools and teachers in compulsory education in terms of the quantity and quality of after-school programs, as well as teachers' participation in these programs. However, this policy inevitably increases the workload of teachers. This paper analyzes the impact of the "double reduction" policy on students, teachers, and schools from different perspectives and offers suggestions. The policy has effectively reduced the burden of students by banning out-of-school subject training, but at the same time, it has put higher demands on teachers' teaching, who have to design assignments carefully and set fewer, more precise and scientifically efficient assignments. The emergence of after-school services gives students more options for their time after school but also increases teachers' workload, requiring them to devote more time and energy after school.

Authors: Li Meiqi
Published: March 2023

Since the fifties of the last century, the concept of portfolio management is proposed to enrich the portfolio theory by Markowitz et al., as well as the improvement of portfolio theory by later generations, forming a modern portfolio management theory. This paper uses Markowitz's mean variance portfolio theory to perform a portfolio return maximization analysis on selected assets with assumptions that investors are risk-averse according to mean variance theory. Based on mean variance portfolio theory, as well as Python computational simulation modeling, Monte Carlo simulation is used to find the effective set and effective frontier of the portfolio, and the optimal solution of the portfolio is filtered according to the two constraints of maximum Sharpe ratio and minimum volatility. According to the analysis, the portfolio return of the maximum Sharpe ratio is relatively high, and the maximum Sharpe ratio combination is more worthwhile than the minimum volatility combination. Overall, these results provide enlightenment for further exploration and implementation of portfolio theory.
