Authors: Nuri Rahayu Ningsih  , Andria Zulfa  , Bakhtiar Efendi  , Lia Nazliana Nasution  , Rusiadi Rusiadi
Published: November 2024

Using a quantitative approach, this study investigates the effect of port export and import volumes on economic growth in North Sumatra and West Sumatra Provinces. Time series data from the World Bank and the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) from 2006 to 2023 are used as secondary data. The analysis uses the ARDL Panel model, which allows for analysis of data dynamics across time and regions. The results show that the three main indicators that affect economic growth (GRDP) in both provinces, both in the short and long term, are export volume, inflation, and exchange rates. In North Sumatra, export volume has a positive impact on GRDP, while import volume has a negative impact, indicating a risk of dependence on imports. Controlled inflation also has a positive impact, while the exchange rate shows a diversion. Policy recommendations are expected to improve global competitiveness and exchange rate stability through coordination of fiscal and monetary policies, support for the Export Capacity Building Program and MSMEs through the Regional Comprehensive Economic Framework (RCEP), and export diversification to reduce dependence on certain commodities. This study emphasizes that policies that are responsive to changes in trade at the national to international levels are an important foundation for stabilizing sustainable economic growth.

Published: November 2024

An early childhood child is an individual who actively interacts with individuals around them. From these direct interactions, children learn social norms and ethics that shape and develop their character. This study focused on the process of early childhood learning from the environment in developing their character from Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Systems theory framework. Eleven interviewees participated in this qualitative research. The findings revealed that at the mesosytem level, a learning environment in the community that is safe and supportive of children's growth and development will develop children's positive character. These results corroborated that positive interactions within the environmental layers in Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Systems Theory will contribute positively to children's development. Parents and RuPin Coordinators unanimously stated that education contributes positively to children's growth and development. Even the smallest knowledge gained by children will affect their mindset and behavior, so a commitment to providing a safe and positively stimulating learning environment is important. From the perspective of Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory, an adequate learning environment for young children should involve positive interactions between various environmental systems: family, school, peers and community.

Inventing Thai Amulets for the Chinese: Achan Meng and the Nine-Tailed Fox
Authors: Qi Guanxiong
Published: November 2024

This article explores the creation of the Nine-Tailed Fox amulet by Achan Meng Khunphaen (1957–2021), a Sino–Thai lay ritualist. Since 2010, Achan Meng adapted the Chinese fox cult into his controversial amulet, believed to enhance charisma and sexual attraction, gaining immense popularity among trans-Asian ethnic Chinese communities. Opinions about his legitimacy vary, with some viewing him as a swindling opportunist while others see him as a gifted ritual master. The Nine-Tailed Fox amulet reflects the inclusivity of Thai religious practices and the rise of “cults of charisma” since the late 2000s, bridging two cultural traditions.
Meaning Making and the Significance of Nang Kwak in Vietnam
Authors: Hamratanaphon Chari
Published: November 2024

In Vietnam, the demand for spiritual merchandise has surged, with a notable increase in the trade of foreign enchanted items, including those of Nang Kwak, the Thai female spirit or deity associated with wealth and prosperity. Despite seeming out of place in local culture and conflicting with the state’s anti-superstition stance, Nang Kwak is widely traded in Vietnam. This article explores the political economy of Thai enchanted items in Vietnam, focusing on how Nang Kwak’s meanings are perceived and negotiated. It identifies three key frameworks used by sellers to align Nang Kwak with local beliefs: Buddhism, female spirits, and the God of Wealth. The article also discusses how unequal exchanges between buyers and sellers influence Nang Kwak’s spiritual interpretation and highlights how cyberspace serves as a platform for negotiating its perceived superstition.

The Gendered Allure of Nang Kwak: From Statuettes to NFTs in Thailand
Authors: Lim Al
Published: November 2024

Nang Kwak, the “Beckoning Lady”, encapsulates the convergence of commercial ambition and spiritual devotion in Thailand. This article explores her role as a popular deity of prosperity and amid the country’s rich genderscape, how her allure is shaped by traditional female tropes of beauty, family devotion, and reassurance. By analyzing her depictions in lore, sacred objects, and contemporary media like NFTs, alongside insights from shopkeepers and amulet collectors, this study examines how her mythical representations as a daughter and worshipped mother intersect with Thai Buddhism. Nang Kwak’s potency works through her charm or sane (เสน่ห์), nuancing conventional notions of power and reflecting complex dynamics of gender, religion, and cultural reproduction.
ИСТОРИЧЕСКОЕ МИРОВОЗЗРЕНИЕ СВЯТИТЕЛЯ СЕРАФИМА (СОБОЛЕВА)
Authors: В.Ю. Даренский
Published: November 2024

Рассматриваются основные элементы исторического мировоззрения святителя Серафима (Соболева; 1881—1950), в частности, его учение о главном факторе исторического процесса, которым является религиозное сознание народа; о причинах русской смуты ХХ века; о сущности царской власти как основанной на учении Церкви; о принципах возрождения будущей России; о социализме как богоборческой идеологии. Учение святителя Серафима является аутентичным отражением православного народного сознания и понимания истории, и в этом состоит его важность не только как части церковного учения, но и как ценного исторического источника. В качестве исторического источника труды святителя Серафима позволяют уяснить менталитет православного народа и его понимание исторических событий.

The article examines the main elements of the historical worldview of St. Seraphim (Sobolev; 1881—1950), in particular, his teaching on the main factor of the historical process, which is the religious consciousness of the people; on the causes of the Russian Turmoil of the twentieth century; on the essence of tsarist power as based on the teachings of the Holy Church; on the principles of the revival of future Russia; on socialism as a Godfighting doctrine. The teaching of St. Seraphim is an authentic reflection of the Orthodox national consciousness and understanding of history, and this is its importance not only as part of church teaching, but also as a valuable historical source. As a historical source, the works of St. Seraphim allows us to understand the mentality of the Orthodox people and their understanding of historical events.
Commuters’ Preferences and Willingness to Pay for Modern Public Utility Vehicle (MPUV)
Authors: Lalio Ivy , Navarro Gladys
Published: November 2024

This study investigates commuters' preferences and predicts their Willingness to Pay (WTP) for Modern Public Utility Vehicles (MPUVs), focusing on comfort and convenience factors in an urban setting. A descriptive, quantitative approach was adopted, utilizing a tool-validated structured questionnaire based on the Contingent Valuation Method (CVM). Data were gathered from 324 respondents, consisting of senior high school students and teachers from two nearby private and public schools. Results indicate that while commuters' overall satisfaction with traditional PUVs was moderate, there was a dissatisfaction with environmental sustainability and safety features. Binary Logistic Regression (BLR) analysis identified personal and economic factors as positive predictors of commuters' willingness to pay for MPUVs, although these indicators were not statistically significant. However, two factors— the amount commuters were willing to pay and the overall importance placed on PUVs—showed a significant relationship with WTP. These indicators predict a positive change in the BLR model to answer —Yes, respondents are willing to pay for additional MPUVs. Also, it suggests that as the commuters find the commuter's comfort and convenience factors less important, their willingness to pay decreases. Thus, the findings suggest opportunities to enhance transportation infrastructure and services, recommending a shift toward a market-driven policy approach.
The Influence of Digital Skills and Family Financial Resources on Educational Outcomes among Senior High School Students
Authors: Morata Jan Angelo , Rima Jeric
Published: November 2024

This study explored how digital skills and family financial resources impacted educational success among senior high school students. Given the increasing role of technology in education and the influence of socioeconomic factors on academic performance, this research addressed the gap in understanding how these variables correlated with students' educational outcomes. Data were collected from senior high school students using a quantitative research design. Pearson correlation analysis was applied to determine the direction and strength of relationships between digital skills, family financial resources, and educational success. With a sample size of 30, the findings revealed a moderate positive correlation between digital skills and financial resources (r = 0.503, p = 0.388), though it was not statistically significant. Further analysis indicated a weak negative correlation between digital skills and educational success (r = -0.067) and a weak positive correlation between financial resources and educational success (r = 0.400). None of these correlations reached statistical significance at the 0.05 level. These results suggested potential associations among the variables, although not robust enough to draw definitive conclusions in this study. The lack of statistical significance highlighted the need for further research to clarify these dynamics, incorporating additional factors such as school environment, teacher quality, and student motivation. This study contributed to discussing technology and socioeconomic influences in education, emphasizing the complex interplay affecting students' academic performance.

Esta investigación tiene como objetivo identificar los problemas que enfrentan los estudiantes en su proceso de aprendizaje, centrados en sus reacciones en el aula, que incluyen indisciplina provocada por la falta de valores. Los estudiantes tienden a ser distraídos, conformistas y problemáticos, mostrando diferentes niveles de indisciplina. Para fomentar la adquisición de valores, es esencial implementar técnicas o actividades motivadoras, ya que el apoyo de las autoridades es crucial para su desarrollo. Integrar valores en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje debe hacerse de manera intencionada, considerando no solo conocimientos y habilidades, sino también su conexión con los valores. El papel de padres y docentes es fundamental en esta etapa evolutiva, ya que actúan como modelos a seguir, ayudando a los estudiantes a tomar decisiones adecuadas y mejorar su práctica de valores. Educar en valores significa también preparar a los estudiantes para entender el valor real de las cosas, beneficiará su rendimiento académico y contribuirá a la dignidad de todos. Los docentes deben entender las causas de la indisciplina y cómo abordarlas, basando su planificación en actividades que clarifiquen los objetivos y el papel de los estudiantes en la transmisión de actitudes y normas. Las acciones y actitudes que desafían las normas disciplinarias afectan la relación docente-estudiante, siendo fundamental para mejorarla. Los valores son esenciales en el ámbito educativo y en el aprendizaje académico. Además, el juego es crucial para el desarrollo de los estudiantes, el aprendizaje es una actividad individual que se desarrolla en un contexto social y cultural.

El objetivo de este trabajo fue desarrollar una estrategia metodológica basada en la teoría de las Inteligencias Múltiples para mejorar el aprendizaje de la nomenclatura química orgánica en estudiantes de tercero de bachillerato. El estudio se enmarcó en un enfoque cuantitativo con un diseño cuasiexperimental de alcance descriptivo-comparativo. La población estuvo conformada por 72 estudiantes. Se aplicaron instrumentos como una encuesta con escala Likert, escalas de evaluación del desarrollo de las inteligencias múltiples, y una prueba de conocimientos de pre-test y post-test. Los resultados evidenciaron que los principales desafíos de los estudiantes fueron aplicar la nomenclatura química en situaciones de la vida diaria, así como dificultades en el desarrollo de las inteligencias intrapersonal, interpersonal, cinestésica y lógico-matemática. Por ello, se implementaron estrategias metodológicas activas como Mindfulness, aprendizaje colaborativo, gamificación, Flipped classroom y Aprendizaje Basado en Proyectos. Finalmente, los hallazgos demuestran que la aplicación de estrategias metodológicas basadas en inteligencias múltiples incrementó el rendimiento académico de los estudiantes en un 25%. Las estrategias metodológicas utilizadas para la enseñanza de la química en los últimos años  han dado un giro trascendental desde los modelos conductistas hasta utilizar juegos en el aula de clase, es así que, en la actualidad, se proponen nuevas prácticas pedagógicas innovadoras de educación de esta asignatura.

Published: November 2024

El objetivo de este artículo es analizar los enfoques y modelos utilizados en la formación de competencias socioemocionales para docentes, con el fin de identificar buenas prácticas y desafíos en el ámbito educativo. Se realizó una revisión sistemática que incluyó 15 artículos seleccionados de bases de datos como Scopus, ERIC y Web of Science, utilizando un proceso de búsqueda y selección estructurado en cinco fases: identificación, eliminación de duplicados, cribado, selección y evaluación del riesgo de sesgo. Los resultados muestran que los modelos de Inteligencia Emocional de Goleman y la Teoría de las Inteligencias Múltiples de Gardner son los enfoques más utilizados, cada uno con beneficios particulares en la formación inicial y continua de docentes. Además, se identificaron buenas prácticas como las actividades reflexivas y colaborativas, y el uso de herramientas tecnológicas para el monitoreo emocional. Sin embargo, también se encontraron desafíos significativos, especialmente en contextos rurales, debido a la falta de recursos y apoyo institucional. Estos hallazgos resaltan la necesidad de una formación integral y adaptativa que promueva el bienestar de los docentes y una educación inclusiva y de calidad.

En el mundo interconectado y acelerado de hoy, la comunicación efectiva se ha convertido en una herramienta esencial para el éxito. El desarrollo de habilidades comunicativas, que abarcan modos de comunicación verbal y no verbal, se ha venido relacionando con el crecimiento personal y profesional; la interacción efectiva, el trabajo en equipo, la toma de decisiones, la lluvia de ideas y la creatividad son las cualidades de quienes solucionan problemas en un entorno altamente exigente. Las habilidades comunicativas se han vuelto hoy más que nunca esenciales para una interacción efectiva en entornos personales y profesionales. Cuando las personas poseen buenas habilidades comunicativas, pueden articular sus pensamientos e ideas con claridad, evitando malentendidos y falta de comunicación. Al aprender un idioma, los estudiantes muchas veces enfrentan desafíos y obstáculos para alcanzar un nivel específico de inglés. A través de esta investigación, se pretende ayudar a los estudiantes a mejorar sus habilidades comunicativas mediante la aplicación de actividades de resolución de problemas. Estas actividades se aplicaron a 95 estudiantes del nivel A2 que asisten a la Escuela de Formación de Soldados del Ejército- ESFORSE, grupo de edad de 18 a 22 años. Los hallazgos indicaron que las buenas habilidades comunicativas permiten a las personas articular sus pensamientos, necesidades, y deseos con claridad, evitando malentendidos y falta de comunicación. El desarrollo de solidas habilidades comunicativas facilitó no sólo el aprendizaje del idioma sino también la resolución de conflictos, el pensamiento crítico y la toma de decisiones.

The current research is demanded to cover an examination accomplished with the succeeding topic: “Fairy Tales and Reading Skills” which investigates the relationship among both variables and how students’ understudies improve their reading subskills. Firstly, it is necessary to mention that reading is not considered in the way it should be in education. As a result, it leads to poor use of resources to develop reading skills. Thus, English teachers affirm that the four language skills should be developed in an integrated way because they complement each other. Therefore, the current research aims to recognize the impact of fairy tales on reading skills. Secondly, this research was carried out to scrutinize the importance of fairy tales in reading skills on the 4th level at “Unidad Educativa Bilingue La Granja”. The participants of the study were 17 students; 10 men, and 7 women. The current project had a qualitative approach and descriptive research. Thirdly, a 20 questions survey was applied to identify the use of fairy tales in the development of reading skills and the frequency that different resources are used in English classes. Finally, discerning the results of the survey, the rejection of the null hypothesis was established. Consequently, the acceptance of the alternative hypothesis was verified by corroborating that Fairy Tales influence the improvement of reading skills, and it is advised the implementation of fairy tales as a resource in English teaching methodologies.
