A Fascinating Folly: Making-place through the thickness of time
Authors:   , Hamilton Anna
Published: July 2022

The design research narrates an architectural inquiry into shifting mainstream practices surrounding Aotearoa’s historic architecture. The proposal intertwines current architectural approaches to tangible facets of history with the nuances of Intangible Heritage, specifically focusing on Turnbull House, and its unsettled narratives. To demonstrate this, the research experiments with three architectural interventions distilling qualities of form which enable abstract experiences. Intangible qualities of our historic architecture are pursued through the mediums of narrative and time, which intersect to create a definition for making-place. The resultant architectural objects map the city of Wellington, Te-Whanganui-a-Tara, applying rigorous historical research, and manual outputs of discovery. These design learnings feed into a conclusive argument for acknowledging contested histories of site, for our historic architecture to include Intangible Heritage to better augment time’s mark, and facilitate making-place.
Higher Hopes for Denser Living

Higher Hopes for Denser Living explores the current constraints in existing medium-density housing in New Zealand. People traditionally see suburban architecture as a single standalone dwelling with a big backyard where there is a sense of privacy between them and their neighbours. The vision of a suburban home is based on past memories, and not necessarily adapted to the current context and constraints of future housing needs. The experiences of ‘home’ are of great importance as they contribute to the resident’s wellbeing and satisfaction.

Medium-density housing is a major growth area in New Zealand urban developments. As the need for greater housing density increases, improving the quality of design in medium-density housing will raise the appeal to New Zealanders. There is a growing agreement that medium-density housing developments are part of the answer to New Zealand’s housing supply issues. However, there is less agreement on what constitutes good quality medium-density housing and how this may assist in enhancing livability for those who live in these areas.

The Wellington suburb of Kilbirnie will be explored as it is an existing dense suburban area in Wellington with connection to the city. An opportunity exists here to enhance livability and vitality* within and around the town centre through quality residential intensification. Kilbirnie currently has a limited range of housing choices, particularly in terms of medium-density terrace and townhouses. Providing more choice would improve vitality and safety and help to maintain a wider range of services and will ensure the town centre maintains its role as a key social and communal hub for the southern and eastern suburbs of Wellington.
Preserving the Outstanding

Tongariro National Park lies in the central North Island, and is home to one of the most accessible and incredible volcanic regions in the world. The largest volcano in the park, Mt Ruapehu, gets the most use for supporting three different ski fields on its slopes. Whakapapa ski area, on the north western side of the mountain, currently operates around mid-June to early October (snow conditions permitting), and is open year round to sightseers who are able to access more of the mountain than ever before via a newly installed gondola. While this current operation is relatively successful, the mountain is paradoxically still under appreciated and simultaneously getting worn down by use. In this context, the mountain faces an ever-growing problem: climate change. Snow is becoming less reliable each season, putting pressure on the field to stay open through means other than snow sports.

Currently, key users of the maunga include day walkers, mountaineers, rock and ice climbers, skiers, and snow play tourists. Some of these activities are more/better catered to than others. This is where there is opportunity to expand the operations and facilities of the mountain in a sustainable way that respects the maunga, and allows people to fully appreciate all that it has to offer.

Well-designed landscape planning could also help to minimise some of the pressures currently placed on the mountain’s environment. While the gondola has substantially increased the amount of people traveling up to the mountain, there are few marked trails and subsequently people are often left roaming free. This is contributing to erosion of the landscape, and can cause ecological damage. There is also a disconnect from the ground when on the gondola, meaning that those who are able to - or choose to - walk are getting a far superior experience, as they get to connect with the mountain and be immersed in the landscape.

This thesis will look to design accessible experiences across the mountain that will engage people with the landscape and celebrate the beauty of the maunga. The journey that is created for all users of the mountain to enjoy will be functional year round to aid the area in diversifying its activities, and will encourage movement that is not detrimental to the landscape. In essence, it will strive to make human interaction with and appreciation of the mountain more sustainable.

Emotional intelligence (EI) is an important part of the psychology of an athlete and must be considered when a training programme is being devised. The aim of this research is to determine the impact of physical activity on the EI level among youth; examine the extent to which EI and sports achievements is correlated; consider the discrepancies between EI indicators within athletes in different sport disciplines. The EI of 245 young people aged 17-19 was studied. 125 of them were athletes who were systematically engaged in sports and competitions for 3½ years. The remaining 120 were not engaged in any sport. The research is based on the methodology that Nel- son-Hall devised to assess EI. It also uses various methods of mathematical statistical analysis, such as Student's t-test. The extent of the EI in young athletes was significantly higher than that in their peers who had not done any sports. In a group of athletes differences were found in EI components between athletes of different sport disciplines. This was shown in the indices of emotional management, self-motivation and in the extent to which they were aware of other people’s emotions. The research showed that athletes with higher levels of emotional management tend to achieve better results than those with lower emotional management abilities. It is likely that this observation will hold true for athletes from across the broad spectrum of sporting ability.

The generalization of data from the modern literature on the studied problem, as well as the results of previous studies by Stankevych, Zemtsova & Tomilova (2018), allowed to justify experimentally the choice of blood urea to correct one of the metabolic processes in training athletes. As a result of the study of athletes found that at the starting mesocycle of the special-preparatory stage of the preparatory period, the rate of blood urea in both groups of athletes did not differ significantly and amounted to 4.05±0.082 mmol·l -1 and 3.68±0.084 mmol·l -1 in women and 3.97±0.091 mmol·l -1 and 4.68±0.045 mmol·l -1 in men, accordingly. This content of blood urea corresponds to the av- erage group norms and indicates the balance of anabolism and catabolism of proteins, and therefore, may indicate the state of recovery of athletes at the beginning of the mesocycle. However, the increase in this indicator at the end of the mesocycle indicates that the amount of training loads differs in the duration of work. However, both in ath- letic walking and in middle-distance runners, reliability was noted regarding the state of rest (p<0.01). Knowledge of the peculiarities of the functioning of this part of the metabolism and the development of ways to increase the effectiveness of this mechanism in terms of intense muscle activity should be considered as one of the promising research areas to improve training and competitive activities, as well as speed up recovery in athletes.

The purpose of this article is to substantiate, develop and evaluate the effectiveness of a physical rehabilitation comprehensive program using functional training method for patients with cerebral blood flow acute disorders in the late recovery period. The rehabilitation program focuses on improving the quality of life indicators according to the International Classification of Functioning, treating movement disorders and returning patients to their previ- ous functional level. The ascertaining experiment involved 73 patients. The primary diagnosis was the consequenc- es of cerebral blood flow acute disorders lasting for at least 6 months and not more than 9 months after a stroke. The physical rehabilitation comprehensive program was implemented amongst the patients of the experimental group (n=35) and the control group (n=38), the latter attending a standard physical rehabilitation course in a medical insti- tution. The statistical analysis revealed a great number of correlations at a significant level, which is explained by the connection between body structures and functions, activity and participation. The study proves the effectiveness of the proposed program as compared to the traditional approaches. It ascertains that using specialized methods based on functional training in post-stroke rehabilitation programs is the way to increase functional capacity and improve the adaptation of stroke patients.

Objective of the study was to assess the relationship between the indicators of therapeutic alliance and pul- monary function recovery in patients undergoing physical therapy after cardiac surgery (СS). 80 patients, who were submitted to СS (performed by median sternotomy on cardiopulmonary bypass) and standardized phys- ical therapy program thereafter. Therapeutic alliance was assessed with the help of Working Alliance Inventory (SF Hatcher Client form) questionnaire. The questions were split into three domains: "goal items", "task items" and "bond items". The questionnaire was filled in on the 7th postoperative day (POD). Pulmonary function test was done before the surgery and on the 7th POD. The results of assessment confirmed a rather high level of therapeutic alliance between cardiac surgery patients and their physical therapists. Lung volumes and flow rates were worse after surgery. According to the analysis of correlation relationships between “task items” indi- cators and FVC, FIVC, FIV1 reduction rates, patients with less reduction of these volumeshad better “task items” results. According to the analysis of correlation relationships between a number of pulmonary function test in- dicators on the 7th POD and “goal items”, “task items”, totalquestionnaire score,patients with higher postoper- ative pulmonary function values had better therapeutic alliance. The obtained correlation relationships were significant, but weak or very weak. The results confirmed the relationships between postoperative pulmonary function values, their dynamic and therapeutic alliance.

Junior players although easier approachable in terms of running tests and measurements, are less studied and examined particularly in such popular field of sports science as Performance Analysis. Most of the studies are focusing on elite athletes, whereas juniors are left without attention. This does not help them to successfully progress from junior to senior division. The aim of this study was to investigate the difference of the game struc- ture between Elite Level (EL) and Junior Level (JL) single tennis players. A total of 14 matches were analyzed including semi-finals and finals of International tennis tournaments. The game structure variables selected for this study included match duration (MD), game (set) duration (SD), rallies per game (set) (RPS), shots per rally (SPR), rally length (RL), rest time between rallies (RT), ball in play in seconds (BLs) and ball in play in percentage (BP%). Independent Sample T-test and Mann-Whitney test depending on the normality of data distribution were used for the comparison of game variables between Elite Level and Junior Level. Number of rallies, rest time between rallies, ball in play in percentage, and match duration were tested using Independent Sample T-test. Mann-Whitney test was used for comparing set duration, ball in play in seconds, rally length and shots per rally. There were statistically significant differences among the two categories in number of rallies, ball in play in percentage, ball in play in seconds and rally length (all at p<0.05).

Obese individuals with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) are at risk for developing overt diabetes and cardiovas- cular diseases (CVD). This study aimed to examine the effects of 12 weeks of a functional exercise training (FET) programme in obese individuals with IGT. Sixteen males and females university staff, aged 50.4±1.3 years (43 to 59 yrs) with mean BMI ≥25 kg/m² (WHO Asian Guidelines) and IGT were randomly divided into the functional exercise training (FET) group or the control (CON) group. Both groups underwent the baseline assessments, including an- thropometric measurements, exercise capacity, oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), and blood chemistry analysis. All testing was repeated at 12 weeks post-intervention. The FET groups engaged in the FET programme, and the CON group carried out normal daily physical activity, including walking. After the intervention, the FET group showed significant changes in exercise capacity, body weight (BW), BMI, waist circumference, triglycerides, fasting plasma insulin (FPI), 2 hrs glucose, and glucose AUC (p<0.05) while the CON group only exhibited an improvement in HDL-C (p<0.05). The study showed that the FET programme improves exercise capacity and alters cardiometabolic param- eters. It can be an alternative form of exercise for managing obesity and improves glycaemic control in those at risk.

A Call to Strengthen Instructional Leadership to Support Learner Achievement During and Post COVID-19: A Systematic Literature Review Approach
Authors: Nwosu Lilian Ifunanya , Matashu Martha , Buabeng Assan Thomas
Published: August 2022

The coronavirus disease 19 has dismantled the traditional approaches to school management of education, prompting an urgent need to maintain teaching and learning during and post the pandemic. This study thus calls for strengthening instructional leadership to improve learner performance during and post the pandemic. Instructional leadership is an emerging concept from education leadership; however, the literature on educational leadership functions is still in its infancy. Subsequently, there is a lack of a complete understanding of the role of the School Management Team and educators’ instructional practices in managing teaching and learning in education literature. Although the School Management Team should identify and improve instructional practices to help learners attain learning outcomes, this goal is hindered by a lack of compressive insight into the relationship between instructional leadership and learner achievement. The purpose of this Systematic Literature Review is to examine the instructional leadership roles of SMTs and educators as identified by academics and practitioners. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis reporting guidelines were adopted in the study. An electronic search identified 127 publications. After duplication, titles and abstracts were screened, and inclusion and exclusion criteria were considered; 27 full-text version publications were assessed. Findings revealed a comprehensive conceptual relationship between instructional leadership roles at different hierarchical levels and their influence on learner performance. This study contributes a synthesised literature review on strengthening instructional leadership to promote learner attainment. These findings have implications for policymakers interested in promoting learner performance through strengthened instructional leadership during and post the coronavirus.

Published: August 2022

Recent studies have investigated the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy, organisations, and education in South Africa. However, research on the work-from-home opportunities and challenges during the COVID-19 lockdown is still scarce in the context of South Africa. This study, therefore, explored university instructors’ perceptions of work-from-home opportunities and challenges in South Africa. The study, guided by the SWOT analysis as the theoretical framework, was located within the qualitative research paradigm. It leveraged a sample of ten academics drawn from the Faculty of Education at a rural-based university using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using a semi-structured interview and analysis was thematically performed. The findings revealed that WFH arrangements offered opportunities for working from home without incurring the cost of travelling, saved commuting time, provided new ways of teaching and learning with evolving digital platforms, and allowed for prioritising of time for self-development and relaxation. WFH challenges included social isolation, disconnection from colleagues, fatigue from performing monotonous routines daily, inadequate data, and poor internet connectivity. Thus, the study recommends the provision of internet facility support and technological training of academic staff of universities on innovative and pedagogical approaches to teaching and learning for blended and/or online teaching in preparation for any similar disruption of education in the future.

Nas últimas décadas, os trabalhos na área da Educação Científica que reconhecem a relevância da História e Filosofia da Ciência (HFC) no ensino de Ciências para uma aprendizagem mais contextualizada e crítica dos conceitos científicos nos diversos níveis educacionais têm crescido. Este artigo objetivou analisar o Projeto Acadêmico Curricular dos cursos de licenciatura em Ciências Biológicas, Física e Química de uma universidade sul-baiana à luz da HFC. A metodologia de investigação das informações foi a Análise de Conteúdo proposta por Laurence Bardin. Os resultados indicaram que a temática nos cursos de Química e Física está restrita a um componente curricular de caráter obrigatório ao longo de toda formação docente, e o curso de Ciências Biológicas não apresenta disciplina de caráter obrigatório com abordagem na HFC. De modo geral, o resultado deste estudo apresenta a necessidade de criar novos espaços de discussões sobre a natureza da Ciência.

Published: July 2022

No contexto da pandemia de COVID-19, a disseminação de fake news evidenciou a importância da abordagem dos conteúdos de Biologia no ensino brasileiro. O presente trabalho busca apresentar um mapeamento das produções científicas sobre o ensino do sistema imunológico na Educação Básica. Para tanto, foi realizado um levantamento bibliográfico, sob a forma de estado da arte, que permitiu a categorização dos resultados de acordo com aspectos formais e de conteúdo. Observou-se um número surpreendentemente pequeno de trabalhos produzidos sobre o tema, com aumento em 2018 e 2019, com destaque para a Região Sudeste (69% das publicações). O reduzido quantitativo de publicações encontradas evidencia a necessidade de mais pesquisas referentes ao tema e às suas implicações para a sociedade. Espera-se que este trabalho represente não somente uma contribuição à pesquisa em ensino de biologia, mas também a melhoria da abordagem dos conteúdos relativos à imunologia na Educação Básica.

Inquiry-based Science Teaching through Constructionism: a path towards scientific literacy
Authors: Nery Maria Josiane da Silva , Silva Fabiano Reis da , Geglio Paulo César
Published: July 2022

Inspired by the concept of bricolage brought by Seymour Papert to education, this work articulated a theoretical and methodological set composed by Constructionism, Inquiry-based Science Teaching and Augmented Reality, aiming to achieve Scientific Literacy indicators. This articulation was concretized in a biology didactic planning, experienced in the second year of high school in a public school. The search for scientific literacy indicators was carried out by means of Textual Discourse Analysis. The results show that the theoretical-methodological set led the students to construct several indicators proposed in the literature of the area. We conclude that constructionist approaches via inquiry teaching are a viable path to scientific literacy and suggest that bricolage should be a strategy encouraged in basic education teacher training or improvement courses.

Описано строение ранее неизвестных соединений, образующихся при окислении дифуразанопиразина (H2L) в водном аммиаке, NH4(HL•)(HL)∙3H2O и NH4(L•)x(HL)1-x∙H2O, где L• – анион-радикал, HL депротонированное производное дифуразанопиразина, HL• – продукт его окисления. Установлено, что в NH4(HL•)(HL)∙3H2O и в NH4(L•)x(HL)1-x∙H2O кратчайшие расстояния между соседними {L} лежат в достаточно узком интервале 3.15–3.30 Å, несмотря на то, они заметно отличаются укладкой фрагментов {L}. Во всех исследованных соединениях значения длин связей и углов в молекулах {L} различаются незначительно. Уменьшение доли парамагнитных частиц в аммонийных солях дифуразанопиразина и, как следствие, увеличение расстояний между ними ведет к резкому уменьшению энергии взаимодействия между парамагнитными центрами.

VOTIVE GIFTS IN RUSSIA. OBJECTS AND PRACTICES
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Antonov Dmitriy I.
Published: August 2022

The paper considers the votive practices and gifts known in the Russian religious tradition. The author gives an overview of individual and collective vows common in medieval and imperial Russia, as well as the main types of votive gifts: buildings (churches, chapels), crosses, icons, reliquaries, icon salaries, church embroidery, fabrics, anatomical weights, precious gifts to icons, etc. Votive actions were the most important social tool for creating a variety of religious objects, from monumental (like monastery buildings and city cathedrals) to small (like shawls, towels or pendants in the form of a diseased organ). At the same time, the action of making, bringing, using the votive object and the material object itself were inextricably linked – the word ‘vow’ in Russia meant not only a promise, but also a monetary contribution to a monastery or church, and a votive object, and animals fattened for a sacrifice to a saint (holiday), and any other kind of gift, material or actional. As the author notes, a review of these traditions helps to better understand modern votive practices that have actively spread in Russia in the last decade.
SOVIET ICONS OF THE NIZHNY NOVGOROD SOUTHWEST REGION. GENESIS AND LOCAL TRADITIONS

The paper deals with the genesis and local traditions of handmade icons of the Soviet era in the Southwest of the Nizhny Novgorod region. It is based on the material from the expeditions carried in 2021. The Kulebak-Gremyachevsky tradition is characterized by Soviet icons decorated with silver foil with an abundance of small elements: foil and paper flowers, clusters of paraffin berries. Those are typical features of the so-called ‘rustic’ style. The main technique of applying an ornament to foil (honeycomb-shaped, finely-rounded, vegetable) is an imprint on a metal matrix base. The Arzamas tradition is characterized by a strict, laconic ‘urban’ style: there are no flowers and berries, the ornament on silver foil was minted. In another type of ‘urban’ icon, foil was not used; instead the masters made a wooden frame and covered it with bronze (‘golden’) paint. For Diveevskaya and Tashino-Ponetaevskaya traditions, a brighter design is characteristic: the frames and small elements were made of foil of different colors, and geometric and floral ornaments were drawn with a stylus. Frequently recurring images are grapes and multipath ‘stars’ resembling large elements of Mordovian embroidery. The Ardatov tradition was a contact zone of the western, northern and eastern styles of the Soviet icon. The author traces the revealed visual and technical features in the descriptions of the pre-revolutionary (before 1917) Russian craft of creating the foil (folezhnye, podfolezhki) icons and the cheap (raskhozhaya) icons made by icon masters in the Vyaznikovsky district of the Vladimir province (villages Mstyora, Kholuy, Palekh) in the 19th century – early 20th centuries.
