Authors: Mahardika Fathoni , Ummiyati Ummiyati , Martanto Martanto
Published: November 2019

Sistem penjurusan yang digunakan saat ini masih mengalami kendala karena masih menggunakan tes peminatan mata pelajaran tertentu sebagai metode penjurusan dimana penilaian yang dihasilkan membutuhkan proses yang relatif lama dan belum menghasilkan nilai keputusan yang baik dan tepat untuk siswa. Hal ini dikarenakan dengan metode yang digunakan sekarang belum menghasilkan keselarasan anatara hasil dengan kemampuan sesungguhnya yang dimiliki siswa. Penjurusan ini mempunyai beberapa kriteria, sehingga membuat guru Bimbingan konseling (BK) kesulitan dalam membantu siswa menentukan jurusan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode WP (weight product). Metode WP adalah salah satu analisis pengambil keputusan multi-kriteria dengan menentukan faktor kriteria sebagai manfaat (konflik antar kriteria) dengan mencari hasil perkalian nilai kriteria alternatif terhadap bobot kriteria. Penerapan pemilihan minat jurusan dengan menggunakan sistem pendukung keputusan melalui metode weight product dapat membantu dan mempermudah kurikulum dalam menentukan penjurusan siswa di kelas. Sistem pendukung keputusan ini dapat membantu guru BK untuk membantu siswa dalam menentukan jurusan. Sistem pendukung keputusan ini juga dapat mengurangi terjadinya kesalahan siswa dalam memilih jurusan.

Translation of Polysemous Words in Harry Potter
Authors: Khalaf Muthana  Hameed
Published: November 2019

The paper pays attention to the polysemous words Harry Potter (HP). In this story, the present study exams some picking polysemic words to the extent that the translators of HP prevail to render the proposed significance as per the setting of the first content. Obviously, the picking translators in this examination were not mindful of the wonder of polysemy in the HP. They embrace a strict interpretation methodology to pass on the greater part of the polysemic sense. The method of data collection is divided into two stages. Firstly, determining the situational context of the fantasy and identifying the polysemic sense to clearly make all the contextual meanings of the source text. Secondly, reviewing the selected translation to examine how far they express the TL meaning of the polysemic sense.  The present study clarifies that strict translation is reasonable to convey all components of the polysemic words. Furthermore, the translators need to utilize a selected methodology to conquer the confounding circumstance in deciphering polysemic words. In order to get a standard equivalence from multilingual dictionaries,  comparative stylistic study functions to determine the contextual connotation and make the sense of polysemous notion.

The Airwaves Meet the Highways
Authors: Redl David
Published: November 2019

I applaud and congratulate the University of Michigan for launching the Journal of Law and Mobility. The timing is perfect. The information superhighway is no longer just a clever metaphor. We are living in an era where internet connectivity is a critical part of making transportation safer and more convenient. Internet connectivity has powered the U.S. and global economies for years now. In the early stages, dial-up connections enabled users to access a vast store of digital information. As the internet and its usage grew, so did the demand for faster broadband speeds. Finally, wireless networks untethered the power of broadband Internet so consumers could have fast access when and where they want it. We are now seeing technology advances in the automotive sector begin to better align with what has occurred in the communications space. The possibilities for what this means for human mobility are truly exciting. Challenges abound, however, with questions around the security and safety of self-driving vehicles and how to create the infrastructure and policies needed for vehicle connectivity. While many of these will be sorted out by the market, policy levers will also play a role.
The Deterrence Case for Comprehensive Automaker Enterprise Liability
Authors: Logue Kyle
Published: November 2019

This Article lays out the potential (at this point purely theoretical) deterrence benefits of replacing our current auto tort regime (including auto products liability law, driver-based negligence claims, and auto no-fault regimes) with a single, comprehensive automaker enterprise liability system. This new regime would apply not only to Level 5 vehicles, but to all automobiles made and sold to be driven on public roads. Because such a system would make automakers unconditionally responsible for the economic losses resulting from any crashes of their vehicles, it would in effect make automakers into auto insurers as well, although such a change will likely lead to some restructuring in how automobiles are insured and sold. Or so I will argue.

Este número 82 de Universidades, pasará a la historia como un hito en el devenir de la revista. Las razones son varias. En primer lugar, y de manera muy destacada, este número está dedicado a la celebración del septuagésimo aniversario de la fundación de la Unión de Universidades de América Latina y el Caribe (UDUAL). Setenta años de participación activa y militante en la vida universitaria de América Latina y el Caribe han convertido a la UDUAL en un referente universitario porque, no sólo ha sido un espacio de representación académica y política de las universidades e instituciones de educación superior, sino también y lo que es tal vez lo más valioso, porque ha propuesto y defendido valores universitarios que tienen una profunda pertinencia social. Se trata de setenta años de lucha en favor de la crítica, la pluralidad de ideas y opiniones y de vinculación de las universidades con la sociedad.
Autonomía universitaria e integración de América Latina: el papel de la UDUAL

Published: November 2019

La realización del primer Congreso de Universidades Latinoamericanas, en septiembre de 1949, en Guatemala (por el simple hecho de llevarse a cabo), ya podría ser llamado un avance considerable para las relaciones entre las universidades, y para la creación de referencias que apuntaran hacia el desarrollo de las instituciones existentes. Convocada por la Universidad de San Carlos, la iniciativa del Instituto Americano de Relaciones e Investigaciones Universitarias de Santiago de Chile, reunió 24 universidades de diferentes países de América Latina. En su discurso de bienvenida, al referirse a la ausencia de representantes de las universidades que no pudieron comparecer al evento, el doctor Carlos Martínez Durán, con palabras muy adecuadas, dijo: “Para las universidades ausentes, la puerta del entendimiento comprensivo queda abierta, franca y leal”.
Carlos Ercoli, figura clave de la pintura abstracta argentina
Authors: Chiavazza Pablo
Published: November 2019

La obra pictórica del mendocino Carlos Ercoli (1940) se inscribe entre las cumbres del arte abstracto argentino, uno de cuyos representantes fue Emilio Pettoruti (1892-1871). En un principio manifestó inclinación por la medicina y, en 1957, se trasladó a Córdoba e inició sus estudios fuertemente atraído por la vida celular, microscópica, ese mundo físico constitutivo pero imperceptible a simple vista. De haber sido médico –sostiene–, se habría dedicado a la investigación de esos microcosmos biológicos. Pero no lo fue. Y es que esos mundos infinitamente pequeños no lograron sustraerlo al enfrentamiento con el dolor humano al que inevitablemente lo ligaría esa profesión. Por lo tanto, abandonó esa carrera profesional y se introdujo en la efervescencia de esa suerte de rebelión contra la muerte que es el arte. Quizás exista una analogía entre el interés de Ercoli por la medicina y su definitiva vocación por las artes. Así como de la medicina le atraía el mundo microscópico de la biología humana, el arte prometía la construcción de un espacio imaginario también como un mundo aparte de la cotidianidad.
The Implementation of Collaborative Learning via Virtual Communities in Moroccan Higher Education
Authors: LAACHIR ABDELOUAHED
Published: November 2019

This paper focuses on the implementation of using collaborative learning via virtual communities in EFL (English as a Foreign Language) with a vision to identify three things: students’ perception, their active participation in virtual learning groups, students’ satisfaction with this new strategy of learning, and the relationship between gender and the latter. To answer these questions, the present research adopts a quantitative method using a questionnaire for data gathering and the use of IBM SPSS for data analysis. The findings of the present study demonstrate that students hold positive attitudes towards online collaborative learning, students are active participants in the online learning process; students are satisfied and able to develop many skills like, problem solving skills, communication skills, and critical thinking skills. Last but not least, the findings also show that gender does not affect the effectiveness of using collaborative learning in virtual communities. Thus, the implementation of this up-dated strategy of learning is useful and needed to fulfill the missing gaps in the traditional ways of teaching/learning English as a foreign language in the Moroccan higher education.
The Bilingual Revolution: The Future of Education is in Two Languages. (2017).
Authors: Sarah Majd
Published: November 2019

The Bilingual Revolution is a key piece in bilingual educational for both scholars and parents as it ties together learning and teaching aspirations with language ideologies and identities. Jaumont’s masterpiece engages readers in personal, political, and community stories of the country’s growing bilingual revolution and describes a systematic process recommended for parents and educational leaders who seek to create their own bilingual program. In the following sections, I summarize the main arguments of the book starting with the first chapter and ending with chapter thirteen. Then, I analyze the revolution Jaumont calls for and recaptures the book’s most important contribution: proposing a U-turn in our education to establish schooling practices that reflect the essence of our complex American identities and diverse linguistic ideologies.

Extrasolar satellites are generally too small to be detected by nominal searches. By analogy to the most active body in the solar system, Io, we describe how sodium (Na i) and potassium (K i) gas could be a signature of the geological activity venting from an otherwise hidden exo-Io. Analyzing ∼a dozen close-in gas giants hosting robust alkaline detections, we show that an Io-sized satellite can be stable against orbital decay below a planetary tidal

. This tidal energy is also focused into the satellite driving an ∼105±2 higher mass-loss rate than Io’s supply to Jupiter’s Na exosphere based on simple atmospheric loss estimates. The remarkable consequence is that several exo-Io column densities are, on average, more than sufficient to provide the ∼1010±1 Na cm−2 required by the equivalent width of exoplanet transmission spectra. Furthermore, the benchmark observations of both Jupiter’s extended (∼1000 R
J) Na exosphere and Jupiter’s atmosphere in transmission spectroscopy yield similar Na column densities that are purely exogenic in nature. As a proof of concept, we fit the “high-altitude” Na at WASP-49b with an ionization-limited cloud similar to the observed Na profile about Io. Moving forward, we strongly encourage time-dependent ingress and egress monitoring along with spectroscopic searches for other volcanic volatiles.
A Dynamical Study of Extraplanar Diffuse Ionized Gas in NGC 5775*
Authors: Boettcher Erin , Gallagher J. S. , Zweibel Ellen G.
Published: November 2019

The structure and kinematics of gaseous, disk–halo interfaces are imprinted with the processes that transfer mass, metals, and energy between galactic disks and their environments. We study the extraplanar diffuse ionized gas (eDIG) layer in the interacting, star-forming galaxy NGC 5775 to better understand the consequences of star formation feedback on the dynamical state of the thick-disk interstellar medium. Combining emission-line spectroscopy from the Robert Stobie Spectrograph on the Southern African Large Telescope with radio continuum observations from Continuum Halos in Nearby Galaxies—an EVLA Survey, we ask whether thermal, turbulent, magnetic field, and cosmic-ray pressure gradients can stably support the eDIG layer in dynamical equilibrium. This model fails to reproduce the observed exponential electron scale heights of the eDIG thick disk and halo on the northeast (

kpc) and southwest (

kpc) sides of the galaxy at R < 11 kpc. We report the first definitive detection of an increasing eDIG velocity dispersion as a function of height above the disk. Blueshifted gas along the minor axis at large distances from the midplane hints at a disk–halo circulation and/or ram pressure effects caused by the ongoing interaction with NGC 5774. This work motivates further integral field unit and/or Fabry–Perot spectroscopy of galaxies with a range of star formation rates to develop a spatially resolved understanding of the role of star formation feedback in shaping the kinematics of the disk–halo interface.
Exploring the Asymmetry of the Solar Corona Electron Density with Very Long Baseline Interferometry
Authors: Aksim Dan , Melnikov Alexey , Pavlov Dmitry , Kurdubov Sergey
Published: November 2019

The Sun’s corona has interested researchers for multiple reasons, including the search for a solution to the famous coronal heating problem and a purely practical consideration of predicting geomagnetic storms on Earth. There exist numerous different theories regarding the solar corona; therefore, it is important to be able to perform comparative analysis and validation of those theories. One way that could help us move toward the answers to those problems is the search for observational methods that could obtain information about the physical properties of the solar corona and provide means for comparing different solar corona models. In this work we present evidence that very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations are, in certain conditions, sensitive to the electron density of the solar corona and are able to distinguish between different electron density models, which makes the technique of VLBI valuable for solar corona investigations. Recent works on the subject used a symmetric power-law model of the electron density in solar plasma; in this work, an improvement is proposed based on a three-dimensional numerical model.
Chromospheric UV Bursts and Turbulent-driven Magnetic Reconnection
Authors: Wu Pin
Published: November 2019

We use Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) spacecraft data to study a group of Chromospheric ultraviolet bursts (UVBs) associated with an active region. We classify the UVBs into two types: smaller ones that can only be measured once by the scanning slit, and larger UVBs that are measured twice by the slit. The UVBs’ optically thin Si iv 1402.77 Å line profiles are studied intensively. By fitting the smaller UVBs’ lines with 1–2 Gaussians, we obtain a variety of line-of-sight flow measurements that hint various 3D orientations of small-scale magnetic reconnections, each associated with a UVB. The larger UVBs are, however, unique in a way that they each have two sets of measurements at two slit locations. This makes it possible to unambiguously detect two oppositely directed heated flows jetting out of a single UVB, a signature of magnetic reconnection operating at the heart of the UVB. Here, we report on the first of such an observation. Additionally, all the optically thin Si iv 1402.77 Å line profiles from those UVBs consistently demonstrate excessive broadening, an order of magnitude larger than would be expected from thermal broadening, suggesting that those small-scale reconnections could be driven by large scale (macroscale) turbulence in the active region.
Morphological study of the gastrointestinal tract of the snow trout, Schizothorax esocinus (Actinopterygii: Cypriniformes)
Authors: Bhat Mohd Y. , Channa Ashok , Paray Bilal A. , Al-Sadoon Mohammed K. , Rather Irfan A.
Published: November 2019

The present study aimed to investigate the macroscopic structure of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of Schizothorax esocinus Heckel, 1838. The surface architecture of the buccopharynx, oesophagus and the entire intestinal tract of S. esocinus has been examined under scanning electron microscope (SEM) after fixing in 2.5% glutaraldehyde buffered with 0.1 M sodium cacodylate at pH 7.3 for 18–48 hours and post-fixation for two hours at room temperature in 1% osmium tetra oxide buffered at pH 7.3 with 0.1 M cacodylate. The mucosal surface of buccopharynx, esophagus, intestinal bulb, and intestine reveal prominent longitudinal major or primary mucosal folds which are further subdivided into the series of irregular and well-circumscribed folds called minor or secondary folds. However, in the intestinal bulb and intestine, the longitudinal major or primary folds themselves form wavy or zigzagging patterns along the mucosal surface. The fine structure of the surface epithelium further shows that the apical surfaces of the epithelial cells are ped with finger-print like microridges, arranged in various patterns and regularly spaced. The rectal mucosa, on the other hand, displays a highly irregular type of major mucosal folds. The separation can’t be seen between major mucosal folds. A thin film of mucous spread over the mucosal folds and the numerous pores through which mucous cells release their content has also been noted along the rectal mucosa. This investigation suggests the possible role of different digestive organs in relation to feeding, digestion, storage, absorption, and various other physiological processes, thereby providing a knowledge necessary to the understanding of pathological or physiological alterations in both aquaculture and natural environment.
L’histoire du design au risque de la collection : valeur et artifices des arts décoratifs au musée, et au musée d’Orsay en particulier
Authors: Le Pape Yannick
Published: November 2019

L’histoire du design que nous cultivons est souvent jugée fragmentaire, partiale voire dissimulatrice. On pourrait alors croire que, en faisant retour sur l’objet, la muséification des arts décoratifs permettrait d’atteindre un consensus. Reste à voir comment composer avec les logiques de la collection, qui supposent en effet qu’une sélection soit effectuée parmi les objets, au risque de la moduler à dessein ou même de « fabriquer des histoires » (Usherwood, 1995). À l’heure où le musée d’Orsay fête ses trente ans, on se souvient que la création de sa collection d’arts décoratifs avait justement fait débat : si les historiens militèrent pour exposer la fin du XIX e siècle dans son intégrité, « dans sa beauté et/ou sa laideur » (Rebérioux, 1983), le musée resta en effet ambigu face à l’objet industriel ou à l’ustensile populaire, quitte à n’évoquer qu’un seul aspect du design de l’époque – au nom d’une « représentativité » des objets qui, quel que soit le musée, est à elle seule polémique.

Reinforcing Fundamental Knowledge While Encouraging Students’ Artistic Expression

Drawing anatomical images can improve students’ learning, while tapping into their creative and artistic abilities. Students enrolled in a pathophysiology course completed a prerequisite assignment prior to learning about complex cardiac disorders. The activity involved creating an illustration of the human heart, labeling the anatomical structures, and depicting the flow of blood through the heart. This assignment was based on work by Paivio (1986), who advocated for the use of pictures and words to increase students’ cognitive coding, defined as ways of representing information in one’s mind, and Sweller’s (1988) theory describing the mental processes of learning, problem solving, human memory, and cognitive overload.

Auditors in the Economy and the Impact of Rent-Seeking Behaviour and Penalties
Authors: Öztürk-Göktuna Bilge , Erinç Mert
Published: November 2019

Society often relies on information disclosed by enterprises and verified by auditors to decide on an efficient allocation of capital. Auditing sector serves as a means of verification to protect investors from making decisions based on inaccurate information. However, auditors can use their superior information for extracting additional rents. This study explores an economy where entrepreneurs choose their financial reporting quality considering incentives imposed by the society, and rent-seeking auditors may manipulate their reports to extract gains in the expense of public interest. The analysis captures the dynamics of strategy changes among different actors by introducing a population game framework. The steady-state equilibrium analysis shows that there is a pure state and mixed states whose stability is affected by policy parameters such as subsidies, taxes, competitive auditor fee, and rate of adjustment of different behavioral dynamics. It appears that corruption in auditing sector and poor quality in financial reporting may arise as a temporally persistent outcome.
The Spelling Gap in English
Authors: Achiri-Taboh Blasius
Published: November 2019

Spelling is a major item on the topic of language gap. Since the 1950s, English spelling has been an attraction to scholars. What this implies is that there is need for increased research on rules of spelling in the language. This chapter examines how the rule for choosing between -tion and -sion works in a bid to render it more economical as one way of bridging the language gap. Specifically, it is demonstrated that base-words that take the t-form have a smaller set of conditions that can more easily be mastered than do those that take the s-form, thus forestalling the latter.
DETECÇÃO DE DANOS EM VIGAS DE ALUMÍNIO USANDO O MÉTODO DAS CURVATURAS MODAIS
Authors: De Souza Bonetti Ludmila , Carreira Marcelo Rodrigo , Ciscoto Yoshioka Ana Raiza , Gutemberg de Alcântara Segundinho Pedro
Published: November 2019

As estruturas civis estão susceptíveis à deterioração mesmo sob condições normais de uso. Dependendo da severidade dos danos, a capacidade resistente da estrutura pode ficar comprometida. Assim, quando houver dúvida quanto a sua integridade é de extrema importância que a detecção dos danos ocorra o mais breve possível. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi investigar a aplicação do método das curvaturas modais na detecção de danos em vigas de alumínio. Foi encontrada grande dificuldade para localizar os defeitos usando o método original proposto por Pandey et al. (1991). A partir das curvaturas modais foi calculado um Índice de Danificação (ID) o qual mostrou-se mais sensível e preciso do que o método original. Concluiu-se que o método das curvaturas modais associado ao cálculo do ID tem potencial para a detecção de danos em vigas, porém, verificou-se a necessidade de amostrar sinais em uma banda de frequências mais larga a fim de identificar um número maior de modos de flexão e, desta forma, melhorar a sensibilidade na localização dos defeitos.
Space and time predictions of schistosomiasis snail host population dynamics across hydrologic regimes in Burkina Faso
Authors: Perez-Saez Javier , Mande Theophile , Rinaldo Andrea
Published: November 2019

The ecology of the aquatic snails that serve as obligatory intermediate hosts of human schistosomiasis is driven by climatic and hydrological factors which result in specific spatial patterns of occurrence and abundance. These patterns in turn affect, jointly with other determinants, the geography of the disease and the timing of transmission windows, with direct implications for the success of control and elimination programmes in the endemic countries. We address the spatial distribution of the intermediate hosts and their seasonal population dynamics within a predictive ecohydrological framework developed at the national scale for Burkina Faso, West Africa. The approach blends river network-wide information on hydrological ephemerality which conditions snail habitat suitability together with ensembles of discrete time ecological models forced by remotely sensed estimates of temperature and precipitation. The models were validated against up to four years of monthly snail abundance data. Simulations of model ensembles accounting for the uncertainty in remotely sensed products adequately reproduce observed snail demographic fluctuations observed in the field across habitat types, and produce national scale predictions by accounting for spatial patterns of hydrological conditions in the country. Geospatial estimates of seasonal snail abundance underpin large-scale, spatially explicit predictions of schistosomiasis incidence. This work can therefore contribute to the development of disease control and elimination programmes.
Chemotactic waves of bacteria at the mesoscale
Authors: Calvez Vincent
Published: November 2019

The existence of travelling waves for a model of concentration waves of bacteria is investigated. The model consists of a kinetic equation for the biased motion of cells following a run-and-tumble process, coupled with two reaction-diffusion equations for the chemical signals. Serious mathematical difficulties arise in comparison with the diffusive regime which was studied in a previous work. The cornerstone of the proof is establishing monotonicity properties of the spatial density of cells. Travelling waves exist under certain conditions on the parameters. Counterexamples to both existence and uniqueness are found numerically after a careful analysis of the discrete velocity problem.

INTERAÇÕES MEDICAMENTOSAS DE FITOTERÁPICOS UTILIZADOS NO TRATAMENTO DA INSÔNIA: UMA BREVE REVISÃO
Authors: Ferreira Fabiana Sari
Published: November 2019

A insônia é um sintoma que pode ser definido pela dificuldade em iniciar, ou em manter o sono, sendo este uma atividade biológica essencial à sobrevivência do ser humano. O uso de fitoterápicos é uma alternativa ao tratamento. Assim, realizou-se uma revisão de literatura com o objetivo de investigar as interações medicamentosas causadas pelo uso dos fitoterápicos, comumente utilizados pela população brasileira no tratamento da insônia: Passiflora incarnata e a Valeriana officinalis. O uso indiscriminado de fitoterápicos por causa do fácil acesso se torna um grave problema. Ambos os fitoterápicos investigados neste trabalho apresentam importantes efeitos indesejáveis quando utilizados juntamente com outros medicamentos, fazendo-se indispensável o monitoramento farmacoterapêutico para que o tratamento seja bem-sucedido e sem prejuízos ao paciente.

Introdução: A Síndrome de Fournier é uma patologia infecciosa que acomete o tecido subcutâneo e a fáscia muscular, sendo considerada como multifatorial. Pode acometer a região perianal e genital, com possibilidade de se alastrar para tecidos adjacentes. Ocorre com maior frequência em homens acima dos 50 anos, podendo acometer também mulheres e crianças em qualquer faixa etária. Caracteriza-se como uma infecção polimicrobiana, onde as atividades de uma variabilidade de microrganismos podem ocasionar a síndrome. O diagnóstico precoce, associado ao tratamento adequado poderá diminuir as taxas de mortalidade. Objetivo: Descrever aspectos gerais sobre a doença, os possíveis microrganismos causadores da patologia, bem como a importância da associação entre o diagnóstico clínico, laboratoriais e tratamentos adequados. Metodologia: Foi realizada uma revisão literária, nas principais bases de dados: Scielo, Bireme e Lilacs, baseando-se em publicações entre os anos de 2004 a 2019. Conclusão: A Síndrome de Fournier é uma doença a qual se caracteriza muita das vezes de forma idiopática, mas sabe-se que a associação entre fatores de risco como diabetes e etilismo é determinante para o acometimento. Atualmente, o emprego da oxigenioterapia hiperbárica tem demostrado eficácia no tratamento dessa enfermidade.

Existem vários produtos destinados a avultar a produtividade das culturas agrícolas, como a do milho, por sua relevância na alimentação humana, animal e, para a indústria. Neste contexto, desenvolveu-se um experimento na Fazenda Escola Capão da Onça, Ponta Grossa/PR, em delineamento blocos casualizados com objetivo de avaliar o efeito do tratamento de sementes com 4 bioestimulantes (BioPower Plus®, StarG®, ZnSO4.7H2O; CuSO4.5H2O e testemunha) na presença e ausência de inseticidas (imidacloprido+tiodicarbe) sobre o desenvolvimento e a produtividade do híbrido de milho CD321®, repetidos 4 vezes. As variáveis analisadas foram: número de folhas por planta; diâmetro de colmo e altura de planta aos 30, 60 e 90 dias após a emergência. No final do ciclo da cultura, avaliou-se a massa de 100 grãos; diâmetro e comprimento de espiga; número de fileira de grãos por espiga; número de grãos por fileira; massa de espiga e produtividade. Não houve interação entre os fatores bioestimulantes x inseticidas para nenhuma das variáveis avaliadas. Concluiu-se que o tratamento de sementes com Zn, Cu ou com bioestimulantes em presença ou ausência de inseticida não influenciou o desenvolvimento e potencial produtivo do híbrido de milho CD321®.
An Analysis of Information Systems Literature: Contributions to Fraud Research
Authors: Grandstaff Jaime L. , Solsma Lori L
Published: November 2019

This study analyzes the knowledge and methods used in information systems (IS) journals in the area of financial statement fraud. The purpose of this analysis is to provide tools and ideas to support interdisciplinary research in accounting and information systems for financial statement fraud topics. The study presents an analysis of five top ranking IS journals (MIS Quarterly, Information Systems Research, Communications of the ACM, Management Science, and Journal of MIS) and five top ranking IS conferences [International Conference on Information Systems (ICIS), Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS), International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP), International Conference on Decision Support Systems (DSS), and Decision Sciences Institute National Conference (DSI)]. The literature found from these sources are categorized and presented by year, journal, contribution, type of study, methodology, data set usage, and research design. Although the literature varies, a common thread in many studies is the use of data mining and/or machine learning models to detect fraud.
Radial Nerve Palsy Recovery With Fractures of the Humerus: An Updated Systematic Review
Authors: Ilyas Asif M. , Mangan John J. , Graham Jack
Published: November 2019

Introduction:

Radial nerve palsies with humeral shaft fractures have historically been treated with expectant management. A previous systematic review by Shao et al, based on studies published from 1964 to 2004, purported no difference in the rate of recovery between patients treated with early surgical intervention versus expectant treatment. However, the authors combined expectant treatment to include patients treated nonsurgically and those with delayed surgery. To better understand the effect of surgery and its timing on radial nerve recovery, an updated analysis was performed with stricter treatment definitions.

Methods:

An updated systematic review of the published literature was undertaken. An electronic database search was performed to identify publications that met specific inclusion criteria. A total of 23 articles published since 2000 met our eligibility requirements. Data were abstracted from these articles and analyzed in conjunction with the results of the systematic review by Shao et al.

Results:

The overall prevalence of radial nerve palsy was 12.3% (890/7,262). Patients with radial nerve palsy treated nonsurgically had a rate of spontaneous radial nerve recovery of 77.2%. Patients who failed nonsurgical management and underwent nerve exploration more than 8 weeks after their injury had a rate of recovery of 68.1%. Patients treated with early (within 3 weeks of the injury) surgical exploration and fracture repair had a rate of recovery of 89.8%.

Discussion:

From the published data from 1964 to 2017, patients who underwent surgical exploration within 3 weeks of injury had a significantly higher likelihood of regaining radial nerve function than patients who underwent nonsurgical management with or without late surgical exploration.
Współzależność i asymetria w relacjach pedagogiki z filozofią

The author presents and analyses the issue of the interrelationship between philosophy and pedagogy. He shows the areas of connections which have already been indicated and the ones which have not been clearly indicated yet. These areas are as follows: the genetic-historic area, the institutional-structural area, evaluation, ethical and metaethical issues and others. For each of those areas there is argumentation underlying the relationship between the two mentioned disciplines. In conclusion, the author presents general characteristics of that relationship.
Kształcenie rozumienia tekstu pisanego u dzieci w wieku wczesnoszkolnym. Wybrane zagadnienia

Reading is a complex and difficult cognitive activity which involves acquiring reading comprehension skills. The teacher’s task is to support students in this process. The article analyses selected opportunities how it can be done. An interesting area investigated by psychologists is the role of working memory in the effectiveness of reading. While there is agreement on the existence of such a dependence, there is no certainty that it is possible to shape it and if so, to what extent. The second task the teacher has to face is to present various strategies helpful in reading comprehension. While the strategies mentioned in this text are the subject of considerations of many authors, the role of metacognitive strategies is worth paying attention to. Supporting the ability to control own learning process, organisation of this process and evaluation of the obtained results, refers not only to learning reading, but also to the quality of learning in general. The last factor necessary for reading comprehension raised in this text is motivation. Developing motivation to read is not an easy task, but it can be achieved in many different ways.
Gotowość do akceptacji rówieśników z niepełnosprawnością intelektualną we wspólnej przestrzeni edukacyjnej

The article presents the results of the analysis of the readiness of peers without disabilities to accept peers with intellectual disabilities in a common learning space. A total of 401 students, attending post-secondary schools, participated in the study. The Integration Readiness Scale was used to collect the research results. It was found that the level of readiness of youths from post-primary schools to function in a shared learning space with peers with reduced intellectual performance can be considered as satisfactory. At the same time, there was a significant variation in the results obtained which depended on the demographic characteristics selected, previous contacts with a person with disabilities at school, and the type of interaction distance to which the consent applied. Unfortunately, as the potential distance decreased so did the readiness to integrate learning with peers experiencing a reduced intellectual performance. In addition, a clearly greater readiness for both direct and indirect interactions (at further distances) was characteristic of girls when compared to boys. Furthermore, it has also turned out that students who had direct contact with peers with intellectual disabilities in their school education are characterised by a lower readiness to integrate, when compared to youths who did not have such contacts. The research results justify the need to better prepare students without disabilities to work together with such peers in the school environment.
