On the Crossroad of Bisexual Theory and Affect Theory: Bisexual Shame as an Emotion Shaped by Heterosexism and Biphobia
Authors: Lagrange Babette
Published: February 2024

Bisexual people are discriminated against both by heterosexual and homosexual people. They not only experience heterosexism because they are part of the LGBTQIA+ community, but they also experience discrimination because of still having ‘heterosexual’ attractions and relationships. These discriminations have a real-life impact on bisexual people, which is reflected in bisexual-specific emotions such as bisexual shame. Researching these emotions allows us to better understand bisexual discrimination. This article focusses on bisexual shame and thus occurs at the crossroad of bisexual and affect theory. The question we ask ourselves is: how are injustices and discrimination against bisexual people reflected in the way bisexuals experience shame? We start this research by embedding ourselves into existing bisexual and (queer) affect theory. Afterwards, we employ this theory and existing literature to reflect on ten conducted interviews with bisexual people. Through analysing these interviews, this study captures important aspects of bisexual people their experiences of bisexual shame, and studying this emotion teaches us about what biphobia can look like and be. In addition, this paper adds to existing literature, the employed theories, and LGBTQIA+ research by shedding light on bisexual shame as a distinct phenomenon that is both embedded in heterosexism and biphobia from both LGBTQIA+ members and heterosexual people.

Published: February 2024

The increasing boundaries of agriculture and health disciplines in STEM to STEAM-H (Science, Technology, Engineering, Agriculture, Mathematics, and Health) is an opportunity for the world of education to expand integration between disciplines for solving increasingly challenging and complex problems. The Agricultural Product Processing Program, one of the spectrums of vocational education in Indonesia that focuses on agriculture, is located in the STEAM-H area. Therefore, this study aims to explore cross-subject connections, essential concepts, and teacher beliefs to implement integrated learning. This study used a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through interviews and documents. Participants were teachers at SMK Agrotechnology Processing Agricultural Products in Ciamis, Indonesia. Descriptive analysis was carried out on the standard subject matter of agribusiness, mathematics, and science to obtain an overview of interdisciplinary connections in STEAM-H and the essential concepts within it. The findings of this study are that mathematics and science have a role in processing agricultural products subject, as indicated by the existence of conceptual connections in them. Concepts of processing products of agriculture become conceptual and contextual integrators of science and mathematics. The essential concepts of mathematics and science are either explicit or implicit, within or outside the secondary school curriculum set by the government. Based on the participants' beliefs, integrated STEAM-H in learning can be carried out at agribusiness vocational schools. This finding has implications for integrated STEAM-H learning planning that requires further research.

Published: February 2024

Background

The wide availability of web-based sources, including social media (SM), has supported rapid, widespread dissemination of health information. This dissemination can be an asset during public health emergencies; however, it can also present challenges when the information is inaccurate or ill-informed. Of interest, many SM sources discuss cancer, specifically cutaneous melanoma and keratinocyte cancers (basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma).

Objective

Through a comprehensive and scoping review of the literature, this study aims to gain an actionable perspective of the state of SM information regarding skin cancer diagnostics, prognostics, and prevention.

Methods

We performed a scoping literature review to establish the relationship between SM and skin cancer. A literature search was conducted across MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Scopus from January 2000 to June 2023. The included studies discussed SM and its relationship to and effect on skin cancer.

Results

Through the search, 1009 abstracts were initially identified, 188 received full-text review, and 112 met inclusion criteria. The included studies were divided into 7 groupings based on a publication’s primary objective: misinformation (n=40, 36%), prevention campaign (n=19, 17%), engagement (n=16, 14%), research (n=12, 11%), education (n=11, 10%), demographics (n=10, 9%), and patient support (n=4, 3%), which were the most common identified themes.

Conclusions

Through this review, we gained a better understanding of the SM environment addressing skin cancer information, and we gained insight into the best practices by which SM could be used to positively influence the health care information ecosystem.

Published: February 2024

Aquaculture practices in developing countries, particularly Indonesia, are currently operating without effective control measures, leading to high tidal and other climate-related issues. Therefore, this study aimed to modify Coastal Vulnerability Index (CVI) assessment to evaluate the physical vulnerability of coastal areas in Indramayu Regency, West Java (62 sections) to tidal flooding (Rob). A total of 6 primary characteristics, including geomorphology, beach slope, water level rise sea, coastline alterations, tidal range, and high tide, as well as 2 additional parameters, namely land cover and mangrove breadth, were used for analysis. Based on the evaluation, CVI was divided into four groups, including (1) low, (2) moderate, (3) high, and (4) very high. The results showed that Indramayu District struggled to recover from tidal flooding, with 24.56%, 22.13%, 41.03%, and 12.28% being placed in the very high, high, moderate, and low categories. This underscored the role of local governments in improving coastal communities' capacity to respond to tidal flooding disasters. Furthermore, the results were expected to be used by local governments to enhance disaster mitigation systems, particularly for coastal areas in developing nations with comparable ecological conditions.

Published: February 2024

River pollution is one of the major threats to the environment worldwide, especially in developing countries such as Malaysia. Although numerous actions, policies and efforts to alleviate river pollution, the issue continues to hurt Malaysia’s environmental sustainability. Based on the case study of the Inanam-Likas river basin situated on the western coast of the state of Sabah, in East Malaysia, this paper proposes an integration of a more inclusive approach toward communities in river management. This paper suggests the inclusion approach in river management by squatter communities who are residents along the riverbanks as part of the stakeholders alongside governmental and non-governmental agencies. As such, this study introduces this approach as a community-based to the river management policy facilitated by the local authorities and other relevant agencies. Without community support, effective mitigation strategies and relevant policy toward river management, river pollution will continue to threaten environmental sustainability.

Published: February 2024

The coastal region is characterized by dynamic changes in its coastline, which can be attributed to various factors. However, the main causes of change along the Gresik coast have yet to be thoroughly studied. Therefore, this research aims to examine the patterns of coastline change along the Gresik coast around the Madura Strait and the influence of wind-generated waves on them. Specifically, the study focuses on four coastal zones: Ujung Pangkah, Sidayu, Bungah, and Manyar districts. The research utilizes satellite imagery and geographic information systems (GIS) as well as methods for calculating ocean waves to analyze the coastline change patterns. The study also examines the impact of ocean wave energy on coastal abrasion and accretion. The findings revealed that the accretion rate in the study area was higher than the erosion rate. The accretion in the coastal area of Gresik is attributed to the flow of the Bengawan Solo River, which carries sediment from upstream. The accretion and abrasion areas for the entire period from 2002 to 2019 were 1063.16 ha and 425.23 ha, respectively. The study also found that the mangrove areas exhibit a higher rate of accretion than abrasion, indicating their potential as a reliable indicator of the effects of sea level rise resulting from global warming.This study revealed that the northern part of Ujung Pangkah District and Bungah District experienced the highest abrasion patterns, whereas no abrasion was observed in Sidayu District. Between 2002 and 2019, the abrasion areas in Ujung Pangkah and Bungah districts totaled 243.96 ha and 178.29 ha, respectively. Wind-generated waves were likely the primary cause of the abrasion in these areas, though other factors may also have contributed to coastline changes. It is essential to consider these factors for effective coastal management in the region.

Published: February 2024

Geoinformatics is spatial information based on characteristics and analysis regarding spatial data. Water is the main component of human life with clean water, especially drinking water found from various sources, including spring water. Water quality is a global standard as a chemical, physical, and biological parameter. The study aims to determine the potential spring water based on spatial analysis of water quality standards for potential use. The method used to determine the potential utilization of springs using geographic information system analysis. Data is based on the difference in height, slope, and distance from springs to settlements and discharge. Water quality samples are analyzed using mobile and laboratory tests. The result found that physical parameters from five locations, Sirah Citanggulun, Cikerebek, Cijati, Cijati 2, and Galumpit, have good quality to meet the utilization requirements, especially for water designation class. Chemically parameters, water quality, is relatively good based on several parameters such as pH, Nitrite, dissolved iron, and zinc, which do not exceed the required quality standard threshold. The biological parameters, five samples are contaminated by bacteria Escherichia coli and total coliform. Regarding the literature review, this research found that biological contaminants are unsuitable for drinking water, but it is still good to become another used. The research concluded that the spring water in a small village could become potential uses for drinking water based on the parameter of water quality for daily use, especially for drinking water, regarding biological parameters that spring water must be boiled to drink.

Authors: Bi Shulei , Sass Magdolna , Gáspár Tamás
Published: February 2024

With China’s “One Belt, One Road” (OBOR) cooperation initiative in 2013, more and more Chinese SMEs enterprises (SMEs) are heading overseas to international markets (Li, 2020). In the early stage of internationalization, most Chinese SMEs still focus on traditional export trade. By 2023, after ten years of development of the Belt and Road initiative (BRI), the traditional export trade model is no longer sufficient to support Chinese SMEs to cope with competition in the international market (Han, 2021). However, most Chinese SMEs do not have a clear internationalization strategy, so the development of a clear internationalization strategy has become an important research topic for Chinese SMEs. This paper takes D&H company as the research object, uses the PEST analysis model, and the internal factor evaluation (IFE) and external factor evaluation (EFE), internal and external environmental factor analysis matrix to sort out the advantages, disadvantages, opportunities and threats faced by the company, and applies strengths-weaknesses-opportunities-threats (SWOT) and the quantitative strategic planning matrix (QSPM) tools to study the internationalization paths and plans of D&H. This paper explores the new situation of internationalization in a practical sense and provides research examples and methods for Chinese SMEs to develop internationalization routes with some reference value.
Some applications of the Shapiro time delay
Authors: Ghasemi Azar A. , Rezaei H. , Moradpour H.
Published: February 2024

Listening to echoes has long been a way to estimate distances, a technique whose backbone is the time delay. The gravitational field also creates a time delay, called Shapiro time delay, that helps us extract some information from the field and is indeed due to the photon journey through the field. Here, the ability of the Shapiro effect to distinguish naked singularities from non-naked ones (black holes) is discussed. It is also inferred that this time delay may be hired to compare the various types of singularities with different dimensions. Besides them, the possibility of detecting the rotation of the assumed objects through surveying the gravitational time delay is also addressed.
Elevaktivitet og tilrettelegging: Om danningsoppdraget i overordnet del av det nye læreplanverket
Authors: Løken Harald N. , Torjussen Stian S.
Published: February 2024

Denne artikkelen er en undersøkelse av skolens danningsoppdrag, slik det beskrives i overordnet del av det nye læreplanverket (LK20). Vår lesning viser to forutsetninger som må fungere samtidig for at danning skal finne sted i skolen: elevaktivitet og tilrettelegging. Kompetansebegrepet er også viktig for å forstå hvordan danningsoppdraget skal løses. Slik vi leser overordnet del forstås danning som en prosess hvor eleven aktivt møter verden gjennom fagstoff, og både lar seg forme av verden, men også bidrar til å forme den. Samtidig må læreren legge til rette for at dette kan skje ved å presentere utfordringer som eleven skal løse ved hjelp av ulike arbeidsmåter. Kompetansebegrepet, hvor eleven forventes å anvende kunnskap for å løse oppgaver og utfordringer, blir på den måten integrert i danningsoppdraget. En slik forståelse av danning trekker veksler på danningsteorier fra den tyske Bildung-tradisjonen, særlig slik begrepet forstås hos Kant, Humboldt og Klafki.
English abstract
Pupil Activity and Facilitation: On the School’s All-Round Development (Bildung) Mission in the New Core Curriculum
This article examines the school’s Bildung mission, as it is described in the new core curriculum (LK20). Our reading shows that the mission relies on two activities that must take place in order that the mission may succeed: pupil activity and facilitation. Development of the pupils’ competency is also important for the mission. The core curriculum understands Bildung as a process where the pupil meets the world in an active way through the various subject matters, and thereby is formed by the world, but also enabled to form it. At the same time, the teacher must be able to facilitate these meetings by presenting challenges that the pupil will have to solve by employing various work methods. Competency, understood as the pupil’s ability to use knowledge in order to solve challenges, is therefore integrated in the school’s Bildung mission. This understanding of Bildung relies on central theories from the Bildung tradition, especially as it is formulated by Kant, Humboldt, and Klafki.
Pathogenesis and management of renal fibrosis induced by unilateral ureteral obstruction
Authors: Nan Qi Yan , Piao Shang Guo , Jin Ji Zhe , Chung Byung Ha , Yang Chul Woo , Li Can
Published: February 2024

Regardless of the underlying etiology, renal fibrosis is the final histological outcome of progressive kidney disease. Unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) is an ideal and reproducible experimental rodent model of renal fibrosis, which is characterized by tubulointerstitial inflammatory responses, accumulation of extracellular matrix, tubular dilatation and atrophy, and fibrosis. The magnitude of UUO-induced renal fibrosis is experimentally manipulated by the species chosen, animal age, and the severity and duration of the obstruction, while relief of the obstruction allows the animal to recover from fibrosis. The pathogenesis of renal fibrosis is complex and multifactorial and is orchestrated by activation of renin-angiotensin system (RAS), oxidative stress, inflammatory response, transforming growth factor beta 1-Smad pathway, activated myofibroblasts, cell death (apoptosis, autophagy, ferroptosis, and necroptosis), destruction of intracellular organelles, and signaling pathway. The current therapeutic approaches have limited efficacy. Inhibition of RAS and use of antioxidants and antidiabetic drugs, such as inhibitors of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 and dipeptidyl peptidase-4, have recently gained attention as therapeutic strategies to prevent renal scarring. This literature review highlights the state of the art regarding the molecular mechanisms relevant to the management of renal fibrosis caused by UUO.
Precision medicine for focal segmental glomerulosclerosis
Authors: Xie Yi , Liu Fei
Published: February 2024

Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is one of the common causes of nephrotic syndrome in adults and children worldwide. FSGS consists of a group of kidney diseases classified based on specific histopathological features. The current classification of FSGS makes it difficult to distinguish individual differences in pathogenesis, disease progression, and response to treatment. In recent years, the spread of next-generation sequencing, updates in biological techniques, and improvements of treatment have changed our understanding of FSGS. In this review, we will discuss the use of genetic testing in patients with FSGS, explore its clinical significance from a genetic identification perspective, and introduce several new biomarkers, that may help in the early diagnosis of FSGS and guide the development of specific or targeted therapies, so as to understand the biological characteristics in FSGS. This will certainly help develop more effective and safer treatments and advance precision medicine.
Machine Learning Methods to Increase the Energy Efficiency of Buildings
Authors:   Lviv Polytechnic National University, Vyshnevskyy Oleksandr , Zhuravchak Liubov ,   Lviv Polytechnic National University
Published: February 2024

Predicting a building’s energy consumption plays an important role as it can help assess its energy efficiency, identify and diagnose energy system faults, and reduce costs and improve climate impact. An analysis of current research in the field of ensuring the energy efficiency of buildings, in particular, their energy assessment, considering the types of models under consideration, was carried out. The principles, advantages, limitations, and practical application of the main data-based models are considered in detail, and priority future directions for forecasting the energy efficiency of buildings are highlighted. It is shown that the effectiveness of the methods is different for the main types of models and depends on the following factors: input data and parameters, the type and quality of available data for training, the suitability of the method for a specific type of model, etc. The need to consider the element of uncertainty when forecasting energy consumption due to the impossibility of accurate modeling of meteorological factors and the behavior of residents is emphasized. Therefore, machine learning methods, particularly deep learning-based models, are chosen to represent complex nonlinear input-output relationships, as they show higher performance than statistical time series forecasting methods. The analysis of published works revealed a lack of works describing a comprehensive energy forecasting information system for use in commercial projects. We proposed a new approach to combining semantic modeling and machine learning technologies for the energy management system of smart buildings, using the knowledge system of the semantic model we developed.
Qualitatively Examining and Analyzing Social Learning Theory in an Online Arena with a Focus on Sexting
Authors: Tasbiha Naila Sohrat
Published: February 2024

Technology has completely revolutionized the way people live, work, study, and connect daily in the current world. The fast growth of the technological world has resulted in a greater requirement for theory and practice to successfully utilize the collaborative online arenas. However, there has been widespread sexual exploitation perpetrated by sophisticated organized criminal syndicates, a profitable sex business, and sexting due to frequent interaction with these online arenas. The word “sexting” is used to refer to the practice of receiving and transmitting sexually explicit images through various virtual communications, particularly in most internet environments. Although sexting is not limited to teenagers, their involvement and the impact on their lives have prompted significant concern among parents, schools, and the media. As a result, this article will examine the tiny but growing area of qualitative research on sexting to determine sexting’s impact on people’s well-being. Building on this, the primary goal of this report was to broaden the understanding of why a person engages in sexting by analyzing the theorized behavioral and cognitive mechanisms depicted by social learning theory and social opportunity structure devised to expand this existing, one-dimensional theoretical framework. The results of this study show that many individuals in online communities see sexting as “fun” and “amusing.” Besides, for adolescents unwilling to engage in actual sexual escapades, sexting may play an integral role in the sexual exploration period. Negative consequences for one’s well-being, such as reputational harm, are also addressed. Furthermore, according to the findings, scholars must continue to employ innovative, interactive techniques with the young generation to investigate the impacts of this sophisticated communication type.

Published: February 2024

Instead, the use of hadith memes among Muslim communities is rampant, and the study of hadith memes is scarce. This study, therefore, aims to examine the use of hadith memes by millennial Ulama and the types and content of hadith memes disseminated and exchanged in the virtual world by millennial Ulama. This study built thematic hadith memes based on their contents and formats on social media platforms using Rajan's (2015) theory of religious memes. This study employed a netnography method, collecting data from the social media sites Facebook and WhatsApp of Islamic millennial Ulama. We used a thematic approach in analyzing the data. Our results show that hadith memes disseminated on social media sites fall into four themes. The first theme is prayer hadith memes that present the traditions of prayers in Islam. The second theme is hadith memes related to sacrifice, which depict messages of Muslims' willingness to practice gratitude and to sacrifice to do things according to Allah's will. The third theme of the hadith memes is that they present messages about the afterlife, which tells about the end of life, such as life in the grave, hell, and heaven. The last theme is hadith memes about tolerance, which tell about the importance of living in tolerance and respecting each other. We conclude that our study contributed to understanding the distribution of hadith meme themes in the virtual world to enhance the sharing and exchange of Islamic teachings.

Las prácticas se presentan en la siguiente secuencia de grandes temas: @ una práctica que ayuda a comprender el proceso de calibración de un instrumento (Práctica 1-- "Diseño y Caracterización de un Voltímetro Digital") y que ayudará al estudiante a entender la importancia de contar con instrumentos de medición confiables y, más importante aún, cómo comprobar que son confiables; @ una práctica que guía al alumno en la aplicación de una metodología para la caracterización básica de un sensor (Práctica 2-"Caracterización de un RTD") y que servirá para entender la importancia de conocer las características de un sensor y la relación de éstas con las de un instrumento de medición; @ dos prácticas donde se utilizan técnicas de acondicionamiento de la señal de un sensor para su posterior visualización (Práctica 3-"Canal Analógico de Acondicionamiento", Práctica 4- "Canal Digital de Acondicionamiento") y que permiten al estudiante contrastar el tratamiento analógico y el tratamiento digital de una señal y le dan elementos para seleccionar uno u otro tipo de tratamiento de acuerdo a su aplicación; @ dos prácticas que introducen al alumno en el uso de un entorno de instrumentación virtual para la medición y visualización de parámetros físicos (Práctica 5-"Introducción a la Instrumentación Virtual", Práctica 6--"Instrumentación Virtual de un Sensor Real") y que pretenden ofrecer al alumno elementos básicos útiles de la instrumentación virtual como uno de los paradigmas más recientes de la operación de un instrumento de medición.
To the knowledge of owlfly and antlion fauna of Cape Verde (Neuroptera: Myrmeleontidae)
Authors: Aistleitner Eyjolf , Ábrahám Levente
Published: February 2024

The authors publish new faunistic surveys carried out in Cape Verde. An annotated checklist of the Myrmeleontidae fauna was compiled. The general and local distribution of the species is described. Creoleon cinerascens (Navás, 1912) is a new species in the fauna of Cape Verde (Maio). Cueta divisa (Navás, 1912), Myrmeleon hyalinus caboverdicus Hölzel, 1987, Neuroleon modestus (Navás, 1912) from Brava were found for the first time from the local fauna. The endemic Myrmeleon amicus Hölzel & Ohm, 1983 is a new record for the fauna of Maio and Brava. The owlfly fauna 1 and the antlion fauna includes 12 species. The current investigations provide new faunistic data of 201 specimens for the distribution of 8 species.
Adatok a Dunántúl közösségi jelentőségű bogarainak ismeretéhez II. – Cincérek (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae)

Between 2011 and 2021, surveys of the longhorn beetle fauna in 80 Natura 2000 sites in Transdanubia were carried out. Previously, a significant part of the sites was poorly mapped 226 faunistic data of Cerambyx cerdo Linnaeus, 1758) was documented. The species was found in large numbers in the areas of Inner Somogy and South Zala but it was also recorded in many other sampling locations, however, it turned out to be much rarer in these locations. Morimus asper funereus Mulsant, 1863 was found at 30 sampling points. The species was found in previously known places, such as Bakony Mts., Mecsek Mts., and Zselic hills. The species was previously unknown from South Zala and North Somogy. 147 data of Rosalia alpina (Linnaeus, 1758) were recorded. The occurrence of the species was not previously known from North Somogy and North Zala.
Preliminary list of horse flies (Diptera: Tabanidae) of Lake Kolon Nature Reserve
Authors: Farkas Sándor , Otártics Máté Zsolt
Published: February 2024

The first faunistic data of the horse fly (Diptera: Tabanidea) from the Lake Kolon Nature Reserve (Hungary, Kiskunság National Park) are published in this paper. The samples were collected in the summer of 2020, with H-traps, on a pasture of El Bronco Ranch, near Soltszentimre. A total of 1,038 horse flies belonging to 11 species were collected. Eudominant elements were Haematopota pluvialis, Tabanus maculicornis, Hybomitra ciureai, Chrysops viduatus and H. muehfeldi, while Tabanus autumnalis and T. bovinus proved to be subrecent.
Styrning, barndom och skola
Authors: Stoltz Pauline
Published: February 2024

In this article I use current trends in government and childhood research to raise questions concerning the link between the contemporary government of Swedish education and deficiencies in children’s right to equal education. Changes in ideas on political government, including an increased focus on notions of “governance” and “governmentality” can be observed in Swedish education politics, as well as changes in ideas on the position of children in welfare states and on children as citizen-beings and citizen-becomings. Against the background of these developments I conclude that when the government of children and the increasing transgression of the borders of the field of education are discussed we should beware to take into consideration that too much of a focus on the form of education policies is referring the content of these policies to the background. In opposition to this I argue that if we want to come up with well-balanced solutions to the problems facing us in society today, we need both issues of form as well as content on the political agenda. Given current trends, I argue that there is a strong need to discuss notions of freedom, equality and responsibility in relation to the government of children and education.
Livskunskap – en gränsöverskridande praktik i skolan
Authors: Löf Camilla
Published: February 2024

Life Competence Education (Sw. livskunskap) is a new school subject that has developed in Swedish schools over the last decade. Life Competence Education is non-mandatory and lack national guidelines, due to which there are no unanimous definitions. Consequently, Life Competence Education can be just about anything: Some schools apply cognitive programs to train pupils’ social and emotional competences, whilst others use this new subject as a way of contextualizing sex and relationship education (a. a.). Despute the divergent interpretations of what Life Competence Education should consist of there are some common features in local curricula, such as prevention (and solving) of bullying and segregation, gender equity, relationships, ethics and values. These themes harmonize well with the concerns of childhood studies, where the marginalization of childhood is highlighted. Life Competence Education can be seen as an example of schools’ attempts to integrate children and childhood into society.
”No parent left behind”
Authors: Tallberg Broman Ingegerd
Published: February 2024

Parents’ - as well as children’s - participation is highly stressed in every policy document concerning pre-school and school, on local, national and international level. In this article parents’ participation in pre-school and school is regarded as an element of tension between policy and professional practice. Based on empirical data from three different studies, teachers’ professional attitudes and their conceptions of parental participation in school are presented. Contradictions between policy ambitions and professional practices are discussed in an historical perspective, and related to earlier emphasised equality in relation to the school. Changes are shown, especially in the policy discourse about parents’ participation: from the earlier objective of enhanced democracy, which was seen as an important, basic value, to the present goal of enhanced democracy and inclusion as a strategy for better learning outcomes and school efficiency.
N/A Pedagogía Crítica, Ética del Cuidado y Justicia Restaurativa
Authors: Nieto Angel Maria Carolina
Published: February 2024

En este artículo analizo los resultados de un programa de formación para docentes llamado Cultura de Cuidado y Justicia Restaurativa en Contextos Escolares. Conceptualmente el programa se basó en la ética del cuidado, la pedagogía crítica, y el enfoque de la justicia restaurativa. Los datos se recopilaron en forma de narrativas, encuestas, y grupos focales, y fueron analizados a partir de las tipologías de rutinas, relaciones, responsabilidad y respeto que son cualidades de una Cultura de Cuidado en el colegio. El artículo se enfoca en las docentes y en cómo, durante su paso por el programa, despertaron a un posicionamiento crítico que las llevó a distanciarse de la educación bancaria, al tiempo que construían un sentido de sí como cuidadoras-educadoras críticas. Con base en el análisis se recomienda apoyar el potencial de docentes y estudiantes para co-construir-se desde el cuidado, la reciprocidad y la libertad.
Second-Order Averaging of Low-Thrust Transfers in Fixed Time
Authors: Dell’Elce Lamberto , Herasimenka Alesia , Rosengren Aaron J. , Baresi Nicola
Published: February 2024

An algorithm for the second-order approximation of fixed-time, low-thrust orbital transfers and generation of Bacon plots is proposed. After averaging the extremal flow of the optimal-control Hamiltonian, a one-parameter family of solutions of a reduced-order, two-point boundary value problems is computed by means of a differential-continuation scheme. Sensitivities of the shooting function are then used in conjunction with an ad hoc near-identity transformation between averaged and osculating variables to achieve an accurate solution for all longitudes of the departure and arrival orbits. Hence, a single simplified shooting problem has to be solved to approximate the solution for any combination of departure and arrival dates and to draw a Bacon plot for an arbitrary launch window. Both the averaged flow and the near-identity transformation are efficiently evaluated via the fast-Fourier transform algorithm, yielding a fully numerical procedure.
