Authors: Guo Haihu , Kitcharoen Patreeya , Phukao Darunee , Poopan Siwaporn
Published: November 2022

BACKGROUND:

Psychological well-being is an important part that undergraduate students and universities cannot neglect as it helps students lead a better study life at the university. Various studies revealed that social support can affect students’ psychological well-being. However, the causal relationship between social support and psychological well-being has received little attention in North China. Therefore, the aim of the current study was to analyze the causal relationship between social support and psychological well-being among undergraduate students in North China.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

The survey approach was adopted and conducted with a total of 689 undergraduate students in North China. Data were collected using a reliable questionnaire. Data analysis was performed with descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation, and structural equation modeling at P < 0.01 significance level using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) and Linear Structural Relations (LISREL).

RESULTS:

The overall levels of social support and psychological well-being among undergraduate students in North China were high. All observed variables in this study were significantly correlated. The findings also confirmed that the causal relationship between social support and undergraduate students’ psychological well-being in North China fitted to the empirical data well (χ2 [22, N = 689] = 27.69, χ2/degree of freedom [df] = 1.26, P = 0.19, goodness of fit index [GFI] = 0.99, adjusted goodness of fit index [AGFI] = 0.98, comparative fit index [CFI] = 1.00, standardized root mean square residual [SRMR] = 0.02, root mean square error of approximation [RMSEA] = 0.02).

CONCLUSIONS:

Undergraduate students’ psychological well-being had been significantly affected by social support in North China. The findings from the current study will be useful for university administrators to develop strategies for the enhancement of undergraduate students’ psychological well-being.

Published: November 2022

BACKGROUND:

Recognition of the factors influencing returning to work by people after heart surgery is very significant in performing supportive interventions. Factors affecting return to work of Iranian patients after surgery are unknown. Therefore, a qualitative study is in demand in order to close this knowledge gap. This study was aimed to explore the facilitators and barriers of return to work after heart surgery.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

This qualitative study was conducted during 2020–2021. People after heart surgery were studied in this research. Nineteen interviews were performed with 17 participants. The main participants were selected from the cardiac surgery ward of Golestan Province Hospital. The sampling method was purposeful. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews. Questions were asked in an unguided and open-ended manner. Data analysis was performed by qualitative content analysis.

RESULTS:

According to the results, “perceived psychosocial support,” “individual characteristics,” and “occupational factors” were considered as facilitators and “effects of heart surgery” and “limited support of public and private institutions” were introduced as barriers to return to work in patients after heart surgery.

CONCLUSIONS:

The effects caused by heart surgery and limited support of public and private institutions were identified as barriers to return to work. Cardiac rehabilitation after surgery can reduce the impact of heart surgery and can help people to return to work. It is recommended that the planners of the Ministry of Labor and Social Welfare and Health, with the support of insurance organizations, help solve the work problems of people after heart surgery.

Published: November 2022

BACKGROUND:

Social participation and group interaction are the basic and expected indicators of serving in the job of the faculty. Some improvements are needed for universities and professors in this area, which they can be better identified by studying the main beneficiaries. In this regard, this study was aimed to identify strategies to increase social capital and interaction of medical universities’ faculty members.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

This qualitative study which was a qualitative content analysis type was performed on 22 faculty members of Isfahan, Mashhad, Tabriz, Iran, Army, Shahrekord, Sabzevar, Arak, and Khomein universities through semi-structured interviews and purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis.

RESULTS:

According to finding, in order to improve the social interactions of medical universities’ faculty members, there were 2 factors and 8 main categories including organizational factors (”organizational dynamics,” “organizational security,” “standardization of selection and evaluation,” “value creation,” and “establishing a compensation system”) and individual social factors (”education and social programs,” “personal skills and beliefs promotion,” and “personality and learning”).

CONCLUSIONS:

The obtained strategies in this study to improve social capital and group interactions and group participation of medical universities’ faculty members can be planned and implemented by managers and can be used for faculty members themselves.

Role of Addition of Chemotherapy to Palliative Radiotherapy Protocol
Authors: Venkata Ramana Pavan Deepak Mandigala , Jabi Gulafshan , Khan Mohsin
Published: November 2022

Unresectable head-and-neck cancers (HNCs) pose a significant challenge to clinical oncologists. Radiotherapy (RT) has a pivotal role in palliation of symptoms in advanced unresectable stage. Palliative RT protocols generally employ hypofractionated regimes in an attempt to reduce the overall treatment time and acute toxicities. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) may improve local control facilitating faster palliation of symptoms. Yet the role of chemotherapy with hypofractionated schedules is unclear in palliative settings due to the fear of increased toxicities. The literature review was hence conducted to validate the tolerability and efficacy of CCRT in the palliative setting. The literature search was performed on electronic databases using appropriate keywords. Studies evaluating untreated patients, treated recurrent cancers, second primaries localized in the head and neck or metastatic HNC were all chosen. Five studies were selected which met our selection criteria. Palliation of symptoms, response rates, and toxicities of these studies was evaluated. Role of such concurrent regimes at other sites have also been discussed. All the evaluated studies demonstrated good rates of symptom palliation and response rates with tolerable adverse effects. In addition, our literature review has identified a paucity of evidence that warrants large-scale longitudinal studies to derive conclusive remarks on the use of palliative CCRT.

Published: November 2022

ABSTRACT

When patient with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are hospitalized, the limited space for activity, disease itself causes fever, muscle aches, fatigue, respiratory failure with mechanical ventilation, or medications such as steroids or neuromuscular blocking can cause muscle dysfunction. Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) should be arranged for these patients with COVID-19. However, the literature on early PR within 1 week of admission on patients with COVID-19 are limited. This review focuses on early PR in COVID-19 patients admitted to isolation wards or intensive care units. The essential components of early PR programs include education, breathing exercise, airway clearance, and physical activity training. Breathing exercises, including diaphragmatic and pursed-lip breathing, are known to improve lung function in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and are also recommended for COVID-19 patients. Poor airway clearance can further aggravate pneumonia. Airway clearance techniques help patients to clear sputum and prevent the aggravation of pneumonia. Early physical activity training allows patients to maintain limb muscle function during hospitalization. It is recommended to design appropriate indoor exercise training for patients with frequency 1–2 times a day, and intensity should not be too high (dyspnea Borg Scale ≤3) in the acute stage. In order to achieve safe training, criteria for selecting stable patients and training termination are important. Early PR may help reduce the length of hospital stay, maintain functional status, improve symptoms of dyspnea, relieve anxiety, and maintain health-related quality of life in these patients after discharge.
The effect of oral anticoagulant use before visit for patients with COVID-19 on mortality: A meta-analysis
Authors: Ghea Cornelia , Wardhana Ardyan , Nugroho Alfredo , Assilmi Fika Humaeda
Published: November 2022

ABSTRACT

Objectives:

Anticoagulants have been used as therapeutic or prophylactic agents in COVID-19 and seem to be more beneficial. However, the advantage of oral anticoagulant (OAC) consumption before visit in lowering mortality in COVID-19 patients remains debatable. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the effect of OAC use before visit on mortality using the hazard ratio (HR) to estimate the effect of time-to-event endpoints.

Materials and Methods:

We conducted a literature search in the PubMed and ProQuest databases for any studies comparing groups consuming OAC to no-OAC before visit for mortality in patients with COVID-19. We calculated the overall HRs and their variances across the studies using the random-effects model to obtain pooled estimates.

Results:

We included 12 studies which had sample sizes ranging from 70 to 459,402 patients. A meta-analysis comparing OAC therapy and non-OAC consumption in COVID-19 patients before visit revealed no decrease in all-cause mortality (HR = 0.92, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.83–1.02, P = 0.12; I
2 = 68%). However, subgroup analysis of laboratory-confirmed populations revealed that OAC use before visit had a beneficial effect on mortality (HR = 0.84, 95% CI: 0.73–0.98, P = 0.02; I
2 = 56%).

Conclusion:

The use of OAC before visit had no beneficial effect on all-cause mortality in COVID-19 patients.

Authors: Chou Sheng-Hsun , Wen Shu-Hui , Wu Hsin-Chi
Published: November 2022

Objectives:

This study aimed to assess the impact of small for gestational age (SGA) on the development of Taiwanese preschool children using the Chinese Child Developmental Inventory (CCDI).

Materials and Methods:

A total of 982 children were enrolled in this study between June 2011 and December 2015. The samples were divided into two groups: SGA (n = 116, mean age = 2.98) and non-SGA (n = 866, mean age = 3.33) groups. The development scores were based on the CCDI, which consist of eight dimensions of development between the two groups. The linear regression analysis was adopted to examine the relationship of SGA with child development.

Results:

On average, the children in the SGA group scored less in all eight subitems of the CCDI than those in the non-SGA group. However, regression analysis revealed that there was no significant difference in both performance and delay frequency in the CCDI between the two groups.

Conclusion:

SGA children had similar developmental scores in CCDI as non-SGA children for preschool age in Taiwan.
El saber práctico del profesorado: una revisión sistemática de la investigación actual
Authors: Saez Gladys Alejandra , Nocetti de la Barra Alejandra , Flores Lueg Carolina
Published: November 2022

El desarrollo profesional docente habitualmente es analizado desde un enfoque instrumental, privilegiando el conocimiento teórico sobre el saber práctico que le otorga sentido a la profesión. En consecuencia, este artículo describe el significado del saber práctico docente, origen, características y dimensión metodológica, desde la investigación científica actual. Como método se consideró la revisión sistemática de literatura, empleando las bases de datos WoS, Scopus, SciELO y ERIC. Se seleccionaron 19 artículos que cumplían con los criterios de inclusión definidos internamente. Los resultados evidencian que el saber práctico presenta imprecisiones conceptuales, se configura en la experiencia profesional y se caracteriza por estar ligado al contexto educativo. Además, se encontró que prevalece un abordaje investigativo cualitativo y predominan las narrativas para estimular la introspección del profesorado. Se concluye la necesidad de consensuar su significado, favorecer procesos de intercambio, validación y valoración en comunidades educativas y académicas, relevando al docente como constructor-portador de conocimiento.

Published: November 2022

El COVID-19 generó cambios en los ambientes educativos producto del cierre de establecimientos y la instauración de una educación remota de emergencia. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo analizar cómo docentes secundarios adecuaron sus prácticas pedagógicas durante la pandemia para favorecer el compromiso escolar, mediante la satisfacción de las necesidades psicológicas básicas de los estudiantes. Empleando un diseño fenomenológico, se entrevistó a siete docentes de educación secundaria de dos liceos municipales de Chile a través de la plataforma Zoom. Los hallazgos muestran que los docentes adaptaron sus prácticas para satisfacer las necesidades de vinculación, autonomía y competencia de sus estudiantes, utilizando principalmente las estrategias de oportunidad de respuesta, apoyo emocional y la relevancia del contenido. Los docentes refieren cambios en la interacción, las evaluaciones y el uso de plataformas virtuales, que fueron necesarios para fortalecer el compromiso escolar de estudiantes en contextos de educación remota de emergencia.
A multiplicative Kowalski–Słodkowski theorem for -algebras

Published: November 2022

We present here a multiplicative version of the classical Kowalski–Słodkowski theorem, which identifies the characters among the collection of all functionals on a complex and unital Banach algebra A. In particular, we show that, if A is a
$C^\star $
-algebra, and if
$\phi :A\to \mathbb C $
is a continuous function satisfying
$ \phi (x)\phi (y) \in \sigma (xy) $
for all
$x,y\in A$
(where
$\sigma $
denotes the spectrum), then either
$\phi $
is a character of A or
$-\phi $
is a character of A.
Эйлерова характеристика полного пересечения в терминах многогранников Ньютона: новый взгляд
Authors: Гусейн-Заде Сабир Меджидович , Gusein-Zade Sabir Medzhidovich
Published: November 2022

Хорошо известная формула для эйлеровой характеристики полного пересечения в комплексном торе в терминах носителей многочленов Лорана - левых частей уравнений, задающих полное пересечение (фактически в терминах выпуклых оболочек носителей - многогранников Ньютона), была анонсирована в краткой заметке Д.Н. Бернштейна, А.Г. Кушниренко и А.Г. Хованского (1976). Ее доказательство было дано А.Г. Хованским (1978), но было несамозамкнутым (существенно опиралось на результаты работы другого автора) и несколько фрагментарным. В работе приводится более элементарное доказательство указанной формулы, основанное на простейших свойствах торических многообразий.

Любая надстройка и любая гомологическая сфера являются $2H$-пространствами
Authors: Gugnin Dmitry Vladimirovich
Published: November 2022

Доказано, что приведенная надстройка $X = \Sigma Y$ над любым конечным или счетным связным полиэдром $Y$ допускает двузначное умножение $\mu \colon X\times X \to \mathrm {Sym}^2 X$, удовлетворяющее аксиоме единицы: $\mu (e,x) = \mu (x,e) = [x,x]$ для всех $x\in X$. Когда $X$ есть сфера $S^m$, $m = 1,3,7$, это классический результат; в случае $X=S^2$ это теорема В.М. Бухштабера 1990 г., в случае $X=S^{2k+1}$, $k\ne 0,1,3$, - теорема автора 2019 г. Аналогичное утверждение доказано также для всех $X$, являющихся сглаживаемыми гомологическими сферами произвольной размерности, и для $X=\mathbb R\mathrm P^m$, $m\ge 2$. Доказательство одного из основных результатов использует следующее утверждение, представляющее и самостоятельный интерес. Пусть даны связные конечные CW-комплексы $X$, $Y$ и непрерывное отображение $f\colon X\to Y$, индуцирующее изоморфизм целочисленных гомологий. Тогда для любого $n\ge 2$ отображение $\mathrm {Sym}^n f\colon \mathrm {Sym}^n X \to \mathrm {Sym}^n\kern 1pt Y$ также индуцирует изоморфизм целочисленных гомологий.

В 2013 г. Бажов доказал критерий того, что две точки полного торического многообразия лежат в одной орбите связной компоненты единицы группы автоморфизмов. Этот критерий сформулирован в терминах группы классов дивизоров. В том же году Аржанцев и Бажов получили аналогичный критерий для аффинного торического многообразия. В работе доказывается необходимое условие, аналогичное этому критерию, в случаях аффинного и проективного орисферических многообразий.
Гомологии и когомологии алгебры Ли фонарщика

Показано, что алгебра Ли фонарщика $\mathfrak l$ над полем рациональных чисел, введенная в работах С.О. Иванова, Р.В. Михайлова и А.А. Зайковского, изоморфна бесконечномерной естественно градуированной алгебре Ли максимального класса $\mathfrak m_0$. И. Феликс и А. Мурильо доказали бесконечномерность ее $q$-мерных гомологий $H_q(\mathfrak l,\mathbb Q)$. Однако полностью вычислить пространства $H_q(\mathfrak l,\mathbb Q)$, $q\ge 3$, им не удалось. В работе явно построен бесконечный базис биградуированных гомологий $H_{*,*}(\mathfrak l,\mathbb Q)$ с помощью результатов работы Д.В. Миллионщикова и А. Фиаловски о когомологиях $H^*(\mathfrak l,\mathbb Q)$.
A review of Teaching and Learning for Change: Education and Sustainability in South Africa Edited by Ingrid Schudel, Zintle Songqwaru, Sirkka Tshiningayamwe and Heila Lotz-Sisitka
Authors: James Anna Katharine
Published: November 2022

Achieving environmental education within the current South African school system feels akin to putting eggs into a beer crate. But such is the difficulty, delicacy and discomfort of the project of system change we are struggling within, to remake and reimagine our relationships in and with the world. South African environmental educators and researchers have been involved in this task over the past 40 years. As the book Teaching and Learning for Change: Education and sustainability in South Africa shows, the school system is animportant place to start, as a meeting point of knowledge and learning and as a site in which young South Africans spend much of their time. This book not only tells a story of efforts towards realising environmental learning within the school system over the last 10 years of the Fundisa (learning) for Change Programme but it distills the significant lessons for the context of environmental education practice, going forward.
Actos de habla directivos y cortesía ritualizada en español medieval
Authors: Cruz Volio Gabriela
Published: November 2022

Directive speech acts and ritualized politeness in medieval Spanish The goal of this paper is to examine the relationship between politeness and directive speech acts in medieval Spanish. The analysis, which is eminently descriptive, is based on fictional literature from the13th and 14th centuries, although there are also examples taken from historical corpora. The focus first falls on the pragmatic space of directive speech acts with regards to their formal properties, contextual cues and interpersonal features. The pragmatic modifiers that either soften or strengthen the illocutionary force or affect in some way the relationship between speaker and hearer are then taken into account. Finally, it is contended that politeness in medieval Spanish has a ritual component that helps maintain the social order and construe interpersonal relationships.
Nieudana rewolucja (?) O dwóch poematach Władimira Majakowskiego
Authors: Kózka Michał
Published: November 2022

Celem niniejszego artykułu jest próba szczegółowej analizy oraz interpretacji dwóch poematów: Obłok w spodniach (1915) oraz Pełnym głosem (1930). Pierwszy za pomocą rozbudowanej metafory zapowiada konieczność redefinicji polityczno-społecznej rzeczywistości, drugi natomiast rozlicza sowieckie realia. W lirycznych (postfuturystycznych) próbach poety często doszukać się można żywej apologii idei budowanego systemu: poparcia ruchów rewolucyjnych, propozycji stworzenia ogólnodostępnej, ogólnozrozumiałej sztuki dla mas. W dużo późniejszym poemacie z lat trzydziestych Majakowski raz po raz, nierzadko w bezpośrednich odniesieniach, wyraża bunt, mający – jego zdaniem – swoją przyczynę w niezrozumieniu jego twórczości, jak również niedoskonałości realizacji politycznych założeń przez innych twórców. Te kwestie autor Pluskwy niejednokrotnie prezentuje w formie gorzkiej ironii, specyficznej jemu tylko stylistyki, a także w obrazowaniu. Na podstawie zarówno szkiców badaczy literatury XX wieku, jak i biografii radzieckiego poety studium przekrojowo analizuje rozmaite wątki oraz ich realizację w wybranej twórczości Władimira Majakowskiego.

Failed Revolution – on Two Poems by Vladimir Mayakovsky

The aim of this paper is to present a detailed analysis and interpretation of two poems: A Cloud in Trousers (1915) and At the Top of My Voice (1930). The first, in the manner of an extended metaphor, announces the necessity of redefining the political and social reality, while the latter, concerns itself with the accounts settled in the Soviet reality. In the poet’s lyrical (post-futuristic) attempts one can very often find a lively apologia for the ideas of the constructed system: support for revolutionary movements, a proposal to create generally accessible, universally comprehensible art for the masses. In a much later poem from the 1930s, Mayakovsky again and again, expresses his failure in conveying his political ideas and rebellion, which – in his opinion – has its cause in the misunderstanding of his work. These issues are often presented by the author of The Bedbug in the form of bitter irony, in a style and imagery distinctive of him. On the basis of texts by 20th century literature researchers, as well as in reference to the biography of Mayakovsky, the study analyses various themes and their execution in the selected works of the poet.
Władza pod piórem… Zmiany w przedstawianiu postaci Napoleona w polskiej poezji z okresu Księstwa Warszawskiego
Authors: Koncewicz Marcelina
Published: November 2022

Artykuł podejmuje temat kreowania postaci Napoleona w polskiej poezji z okresu Księstwa Warszawskiego. Przedstawia, jak zmieniało się postrzeganie jego władzy w zależności od sytuacji politycznej. Ukazuje wpływ kultury i religii na kreowanie postaci władcy. Poeci tacy jak Wincenty Turski, Franciszek Wężyk i Józef Skorkowski skupiają się na zasługach wojskowych Napoleona. Posługują się metaforami i innymi środkami stylistycznymi związanymi ze sferą mitologii sakralnej oraz greckiej i rzymskiej. Julian Ursyn Niemcewicz i Kajetan Koźmian w swoich wierszach opisują obrazy śmierci i klęski maszerujących niszczycielskich oddziałów. W pracy omówiono przykłady utworów odnoszących się do wydarzeń historycznych takich jak zawarcie pokoju w Tylży czy klęska kampanii moskiewskiej. Pokazano, jak zmieniały się nastroje społeczne i stosunek do władzy. Artykuł skupia się przede wszystkim na analizie języka poetyckiego i powiązań z różnymi dziedzinami kultury. Porównuje portret władcy odnoszącego sukcesy z obrazem tego, który ponosi porażkę.

Writing Power… Changes in the Presentation of Napoleon in Polish Poetry from the Period of the Duchy of Warsaw

The aim of the article is to present the creation process of Napoleon’s figure in Polish poetry from the period of the Duchy of Warsaw. It presents how the perception of his power changed depending on the political situation. The article also points out the influence of culture and religion on creating the figure of a ruler. Examples of poetry relating to historical events such as the treaties of Tilsit or the defeat during the Moscow campaign show how the social mood and attitude to power have changed. The analysis of the poetic language and connections with various areas of culture were crucial for creating the figure of Napoleon as a ruler. Poets like Wincenty Turski, Franciszek Wężyk and Józef Skorkowski focus on the military merit of Napoleon. They use metaphors and other stylistic devices related to the sphere of the sacred and to the Greek and Roman mythology. Julian Ursyn Niemcewicz and Kajetan Koźmian in their poems describe images of death and defeat of marching devastated troops. All in all, in Polish poetry from the period of the Duchy of Warsaw we can compare the portrait of a successful ruler with that of a failing one.
A Case Study
－Korean University Students’ Experience with and Perceptions of an Academic English Writing Class
Authors: Bok Eunim , Cho Youngsang
Published: November 2022

The purpose of this case study is to examine Korean university students’ perceptions about the academic English writing class they took during the Spring semester of 2022. More specifically, this study aims to understand how satisfied students were with their learning experiences in the academic English writing class, and how they perceived its appropriateness as a mandatory English general education offered in the Korean higher education context.A survey questionnaire consisting of Likert-scale, multiple choice, and open-ended questions was the main source of the data, and a total of 65 freshmen taking the course responded. To triangulate, in-depth interviews were also conducted with three focal participants via email or Zoom upon their choice. Descriptive statistics were calculated to analyze the responses to the Likert-scale and the multiple-choice questions, and the content analysis method was applied for open-ended survey questions and interviews.Analysis of data showed that students viewed their academic English writing experiences positively due to the content knowledge and sense of achievement gained through the class as well as the instructor’s teaching style. Some participants were dissatisfied with their learning experiences because of content difficulty, relatively heavy workload, and their insufficient English proficiency which hindered them from following the class. Most students self-evaluated that their writing skills after the class somewhat improved. Students chose writing an essay, learning about academic writing conventions, such as APA styles and in-text citations, and instructor’s feedback as class activities that helped them improve their academic English writing.To the question about the appropriateness of academic English writing as a mandatory general education subject, a vast majority of students hold a positive view. Their reasons include their belief of academic English writing as essential knowledge that they need to possess as a university student belonging to an academic discourse community as well as transferable knowledge needed not only in an English class but also in various disciplines. They also recognize its practicality for their academic activities and its rarity to learn anywhere else except university.The findings suggest that school administrators should allocate more credit hours for an academic English writing course and offer it for students in their 2nd or 3rd year of university. The findings also emphasize the importance of instructors’ effort to tailor their instruction according to their students and to provide supplementary learning materials, such as pre-recorded videos so as to effectively guide students to improve their skills for English writing for academic purposes.
Validation of Data Literacy Scale for University Students and Analysis of Freshmen Data Literacy
－The Case of A University
Authors: Chung Yoonsook , You Ji Won
Published: November 2022

The key technology in the 4th Industrial Revolution era is related to data. Data literacy, which can uncover various problems from raw data, interpret meanings, lead to more effective communication, and allow for people to make more rational decisions, is discussed as an essential skill in modern society. In this context, this study was conducted to consider the need for data literacy education, particularly in the field of liberal arts education, in order to validate a measurement tool for college students, to analyze the data literacy level of freshmen, and to provide implications for the future curriculum. Data were collected from 3,510 freshmen from A University in the metropolitan area, and the validity of the diagnostic tool was verified through exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. As a result, 19 items were finalized, and the instrument showed good reliability and validity. Following this, the level of data literacy of freshmen was analyzed with descriptive statistics, and a t-test and ANOVA were used to see if there was a significant difference in data literacy according to gender and colleges. The results showed that the data literacy of freshmen was not high, and the results were particularly low in data analysis and the utilization of the data analysis tool. There was no significant difference between genders, but there were significant differences among colleges. Data literacy of students in the arts, physical education, the humanities and the social sciences was lower than those of students in the natural sciences and engineering. Based on these findings, the necessity of data literacy education was discussed in liberal arts education, and suggestions were made to develop data analysis capabilities using certain tools.
Conditions and Directions for the Modern Transformation of Liberal Arts Education (LAE)
－Conceptual and Historical Approaches
Authors: Jeong Yeonjae
Published: November 2022

To search for sustainable general education, the principles and content aspects of general education need to be reestablished. The former is a matter of securing the identity of general education amid the rapid changes of the times, whereas the latter solves the issue of the inherent educational matter (i.e., what to teach) from a productive perspective. In addition, the historicity of general education should be fully exposed to explain these two tasks. Exposing the historicity of general education refers to finding a future-oriented form of general education by accurately tracing changes in its history rather than adopting the monumental attitude of trying to establish a prototype of general education and reproduce it.The goal of this study is to investigate the conditions and directions of the modern transformation of liberal arts education (LAE) by examining the changes in the general education content due to the internal factor of the differentiation of the academic landscape and the external factor of social changes. More specifically, this study will investigate the elements of the trivium and the quadrivium that can be applied to the current general education curriculum through conceptual and historical approaches to the traditional trivium and quadrivium curriculum of LAE.First, this study will show that LAE encourages free decision-making, realizes universal values and the meaning of emancipation, and realizes freedom while teaching and learning through the conceptual analysis of liberty and arts. This study will also embody the form of LEA, which is effective even in the process of academic differentiation, by emphasizing the importance of understanding arts from the perspective of competence and integrated principles that constitute the arts. Next, this study will demonstrate that the transition of LAE is the history of the creative tension of humanity and scientific character (Wissenschaftlichkeit)―that is, the history of development through mutual, rather than unilateral, stimulation―through a historical review of LAE.In conclusion, this study will present the spirit of the trivium and quadrivium that is effective in the modern context and the trivium and quadrivium curriculum from an integrated perspective. Naturally, for this attempt to have significance as an advanced attempt at the general education level, connections with the following two issues should be considered. One is the issue of how the traditional LAE can be reformed in the current undergraduate educational environment, and the other is the relationship of general education with competency-based education and major education. Considering these connections, this study will search for the possibility of sustainable general education at the content level.
A Comparative Study on Flourishing as Competence for a Happy Life
Authors: Ju Hyun Jung , Kang Gu Sup
Published: November 2022

The purpose of this study is to derive a plan for the effective use of the flourishing concept by analyzing the flourishing concept and presenting its limitations. For this purpose, literature analysis and content analysis were used based on the hermeneutic research method. Documents that occupy an important position in the content of flourishing were collected and analyzed, and reinterpreted in an educational context. As a result of the study, we found that flourishing is a component of personal happiness and is composed based on the contents of the self-directed domain, emotional domain, social domain, and physical domain. In terms of content for each domain, the self-directed domain and emotional domain were the main contents, while the social domain and the physical domain were emphasized to a very limited level. As a result of a comprehensive analysis of the flourishing concept and composition, we found that it was necessary to use the flourishing concept from a broad perspective that encompasses the social and physical domain beyond the cognitive and emotional domain for systematic use. In addition, it is necessary to actively utilize the flourishing concept in terms of enhancing the capacity for individual growth and development through linkage with the pedagogical approach that pursues individual overall growth.
Reading Kuunmong: The Cloud Dream of the Nine as a Liberal Arts Education Text in the Metaverse Era
Authors: Park Eun Jeong
Published: November 2022

By examining a series of classes engaged in the reading of Kuunmong: The Cloud Dream of the Nine with the concept of the metaverse in mind, this study aims at developing a method of how to instruct students when it comes to reading the classics. This study also aims at getting students to rediscover the value of Kuunmong as a liberal arts education text.In order to ensure that students read difficult classical literature properly, an instructor needs to choose a proper work carefully and to consider how best to let the students read it. In our classes, reading Kuunmong was connected to the concept of the metaverse, taking into consideration the times in which we live, along with the interests of the students. In the reading part, the importance of actually finishing the reading, reading from the view point of the present world, autobiographical reading, reading together with related works, and so forth, were emphasized. Reinforcing group discussion and peer feedback increased the students’ participation and interests.Through the explanation of the similarities between the dream world of Kuunmong and the virtual world of the metaverse, the students approached Kuunmong with more interest and understood the themes better. In addition, in essays they wrote after reading Kuunmong, they dealt with many related topics, such as the methods of love and communication, the attitudes toward desires, the importance of experiences and actions, the problems of losing one’s sense of reality, and the importance of integrated thinking. They also explored the solutions to these problems. These topics are not very different from the goals of liberal arts education and the themes of Kuunmong. In this regard, we can confirm that reading Kuunmong using the concept of the metaverse can contribute to the achievement of such goals and to improving the understanding of Kuunmong as a text.

Authors: Lee Hyon Young
Published: November 2022

The purpose of this study was to explore the functional aspect that can strengthen the sense of solidarity between learners by using the metaverse platform in the  class, and the learning aspect of completing a creative work based on a classics text. In addition, the metaverse platform ‘ZEPETO’ was used as a methodology.First of all, this study described how the textbooks that learners read in the field lectures go through the understanding and deepening process. Next, this paper describes a method that students can use to improve intimacy and teamwork through a meetings using ZEPETO. Finally, examples of videos produced by learners in the classes of 『Orientalism』 and 『Crime and Punishment』 were introduced to examine what kind of perspective students have on the original text and whether they are demonstrating their creative imagination.There are two things that we hope to confirm through the analysis of this paper. First, whether students can engage in various levels of participation in the process of producing cartoons, music videos, and audiovisual materials using the ZEPETO ‘Situational Drama’ platform. Second, whether learners can go beyond their ability to read classics and write assignments based on such texts, to something they can also see, read, and hear.
Das sexuelle Schutzalter: Gewalt, Begehren und das Ende der Kindheit (1950–1990)
Authors: Matter Sonja
Published: November 2022

Die Geschichte des sexuellen Schutzalters: Sie zeigt die Vulnerabilität von Kindern in einer generationen- und geschlechterhierarchischen Gesellschaft. Wann endet das sexuelle Schutzalter? Bis zu welchem Alter sollen Kinder vor sexuellen Handlungen Erwachsener geschützt werden? Diese höchst umstrittenen Fragen avancierten in der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts mehrfach zum Politikum. Die Geschichte des sexuellen Schutzalters zeichnet Sonja Matter anhand österreichischer Strafprozesse wie auch nationaler und internationaler Gesetzesreformen und Kinderrechtsdebatten nach. Die sexuellen Rechte der Kinder standen meist nicht im Mittelpunkt, vielmehr dominierten die Interessen und Gesellschaftsvisionen der Erwachsenen. Nach der nationalsozialistischen Herrschaft galt der Kampf gegen sexuelle Gewalt an Kindern als Möglichkeit, eine »sittliche« Gesellschaft herzustellen. Im Zuge einer sexuellen Liberalisierung stand dagegen das Interesse im Zentrum, die Sexualität von Kindern zu »befreien«, um eine liberalere Gesellschaft zu verwirklichen. Erst die autonome Frauenbewegung der 1980er Jahre verknüpfte die Problematik der sexuellen Gewalt an Kindern dezidiert mit einer Herrschaftskritik. Die Auseinandersetzungen waren von der Frage begleitet, wann Kindheit endet und in welchem Verhältnis Gewalt und Begehren stehen.

The particulate matter (PM) is one of the major air pollutants emitted from various sources, having adverse effect on human health and environment. The study evaluates the concentrations of PM2.5 and PM10 pollution in Enugu Urban. The PM2.5 and PM10 concentrations were collected from April 2018 to March 2019 using CASELLA CEL - 712 (Dust Detective). The study area was categorized under, industrial, commercial, high density residential, low density residential areas and control location in a rural area. The annual average concentration were in the ranges 23.06 ± 1.53 to 153.23 ± 28.73 µg/m3 for PM2.5 while the average concentration for PM10 ranged from 37.49 ± 3.75 to 336.49 ± 47.05 µg/m3. The average annual PM2.5 and PM10 concentrations in almost all the areas studied are above the WHO limits of PM2.5-25 µg/m3 and PM10 - 50µ/m3. Therefore, the residents of study areas are exposed to inhalable particulate which may have adverse health risk and environmental deterioration. This enrichment may be attributed mostly to human activities. Adequate attention should be given; periodic monitoring and pollution abatement measures must be strictly adhered to.

PROBLEMATIKA KEADILAN PADA HIBAH KELUARGA MASYARAKAT ADAT DITINJAU DARI HAK DAN KEWAJIBAN SEORANG AHLI WARIS
Authors: Aminuddin Aminuddin , Ardiansyah Ardiansyah
Published: November 2022

Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif deskriptif berupa suatu metode penelitian yang dilakukan di lapangan berupa pengelolaan data yang didapatkan dari hasil wawancara dengan secara terstruktur, menggunakan pendekatan descriptif analisis. Dari hasil penelitian yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa keadilan pada hibah keluarga masyarakat adat ditinjau dari hak dan kewajiban seorang ahli waris syarat akan kondisi dan situasi seorang anak perempuan yang mengalami kondisi tidak memiliki suami (tidak menikah) dan tidak pula menempuh pendidikan yang lebih tinggi ketimbang anak laki-laki dalam keluarga, maka suatu hal yang wajar ketika dalam situasi pembagian harta, orang tua merasa kurang adil apabila ahli waris dari anak perempuan mendapat bagian lebih sedikit ketimbang dengan anak laki-laki. Sementara situasi anak laki-laki sebagai ahli waris juga mendapatkan kesempatan lebih besar dalam hal menempuh pendidikan. Maka tentulah orang tua dalam hal ini masyarakat adat, lebih memilih melakukan penyemarataan bagian antara anak laki-laki dengan perempuan dengan melalui jalur penghibahan orang tua dengan mengedepankan hasil musyawarah antara keluarga agar tidak menimbulkan konfilik dan masalah baru. Atau bahkan dengan kondisi tertentu bagian seorang anak perempuan malah lebih banyak dari anak laki-laki tetapi itu juga atas dasar persetujuan dari anak laki-laki. Implikasi Penelitian; Dari banyaknya persoalan kewarisan di tengah masyarakat, maka para cendekiawan dituntut untuk senantiasa bemberikan sumbangsi pemikiran dan solusi alternatif sebagai bentuk dukungan terhadap pemerintah dalam memecahkan problematika yang ada.
