Inclusion across borders: young immigrants in France and England
Authors: Welply Oakleigh
Published: July 2020

Globalisation and migration have brought new challenges to education in the past decades, raising questions about how schools can promote inclusion within contexts of increased diversity (Vertovec and Wessendorf, 2009). The concept of inclusive education itself remains contested with different meanings across national contexts. This makes a comparative focus on inclusion particularly relevant to understanding different languages of inclusion and the ways in which these are articulated across national and institutional contexts.

Authors: Hammed Fatai , Usman M. A. , Onitilo S. A. , Alade F. A. , Omoteso K. A.
Published: July 2020

In this study, the response of two homogeneous parallel beams with two-parameter Pasternak elastic foundation subjected to a constant uniform partially distributed moving force is considered. On the basis of Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, the fourth order partial differential equations of motion describing the behavior of the beams when subjected to a moving force were formulated. In order to solve the resulting initial-boundary value problem, finite Fourier sine integral technique and differential transform scheme were employed to obtain the analytical solution. The dynamic responses of the two beams obtained was investigated under moving force conditions using MATLAB. The effects of speed of the moving force, layer parameters such as stiffness (K_0) and shear modulus (G_0 ) have been conducted for the moving force. Various values of speed of the moving load, stiffness parameters and shear modulus were considered. The results obtained indicates that response amplitudes of both the upper and lower beams increases with increase in the speed of the moving load. Increasing the stiffness parameter is observed to cause a decrease in the response amplitudes of the beams. The response amplitudes decreases with increase in the shear modulus of the linear elastic layer.

In Nigeria mosquito-borne diseases particularly malaria and some emerging and re-emerging infections such as Zika, dengue fever, yellow fever, constitute a big threat to public health. However, there is a paucity of information on the species of mosquito in Kano City Northern Nigeria. Despite mosquitoes control programs that had taken place in this state and its environment, mosquitoes remain a problem in the state and there is little information on the relationship between mosquito species and the effect of some climatic parameters on the mosquitoes distribution in the study area. The mosquito species were collected using the CDC light trap method and climatic parameters such as temperature and relative humidity were recorded at every one hour of the experiments. A total of 26,652 mosquitoes were collected from January to July 2018. Out of the 26,652, 17444 (65.46%) were Culex and 9208 (34.54%) were Anopheles mosquitoes. Culex species were observed to have its peak at 10:00 - 11:00 pm (5435) while Anopheles mosquito species were observed to attain their first peak at 3:00 – 4:00 am (3416). High collections of mosquitoes were obtained at optimum temperature and relative humidity. This study provided information on the mosquito species diversity in respect to seasonal and periodic variation at AKTH and the effect of some climatic parameters.

Authors: Yabwa Dlama , E.S Eyube , Ibrahim Yusuf
Published: July 2020

In this work we have applied ansatz method to solve for the approximate ℓ-state solution of time independent Schrödinger wave equation with modified Möbius squared potential plus Hulthén potential to obtain closed form expressions for the energy eigenvalues and normalized radial wave-functions. In dealing with the spin-orbit coupling potential of the effective potential energy function, we have employed the Pekeris type approximation scheme, using our expressions for the bound state energy eigenvalues, we have deduced closed form expressions for the bound states energy eigenvalues and normalized radial wave-functions for Hulthén potential, modified Möbius square potential and Deng-Fan potential. Using the value 0.976865485225 for the parameter ω, we have computed bound state energy eigenvalues for various quantum states (in atomic units). We have also computed bound state energy eigenvalues for six diatomic molecules: HCl, LiH, TiH, NiC, TiC and ScF. The results we obtained are in near perfect agreement with numerical results in the literature and a clear demonstration of the superiority of the Pekeris-type approximation scheme over the Greene and Aldrich approximation scheme for the modified Möbius squares potential plus Hulthén potential.

ASSESSMENT OF FUELWOOD HARVESTING AND ITS IMPLICATION ON VEGETATION LOSS IN OFU LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA, KOGI STATE, NIGERIA
Authors: Iyeh Omachi Pius , Jenkwe E. D.
Published: July 2020

ABSTRACT

The economic drive of the people in exploiting forests resources to earn income has in different ways impacted the natural environments of Kogi State leading to vegetation loss and environmental degradation. The study assessed fuelwood harvesting and its implication on vegetation loss in Ofu Local Government Area of Kogi State from 1989 to 2019. The objectives of the study are to; map out deforested areas and ascertain the rate of deforestation between 1989-2019 using Landsat images, identify the relationship between fuelwood consumption and vegetation loss in the area, and determine the pattern of land use/land cover change between 1989-2019 in the study area. Primary and Secondary Data were used. Landsat images of 1989, 1999, 2009 and 2019 obtained from the United State Geological Survey (USGS) with Medium resolution. The result show that the cumulative value of total vegetation lost with decrease of -78 sq km from 1989-1999 which decreases to -145sq km from 1999-2009 and similarly decreases to -508 sq km from 2009-2019 shows that the study area vegetation cover lost is 47.8% spread throughout the three decades. Thus, the total area is 1,680km2 compared to the -430 Km2 of the total vegetation lost. In all, the NDVI result shows a drastic reduction by 0.1647 from 1 to 0.0676 for the periods of three decades. The study suggested that; Government should try to stabilize the provision of other alternative sources of energy (electricity, fossil fuels and coal) at an affordable price, which will encourage people to stop using fuelwood.

A total of 7 tomato farmers were selected out of 45 farmers for the assessment exercise. Soil moisture content was monitored throughout the growing season using gypsum blocks. The hydraulic performance of the farmer’s plots were assessed.  Similarly, the seasonal water requirement and irrigation schedule for the irrigated tomato were also determined. The results showed that the highest Application Efficiency, Distribution Uniformity and Adequacy of irrigation were obtained in plots T6 (92%), T3 (89%) and T7 (92 %) respectively. The least AE, DU and AI were obtained in plot T1 as 74%, 72% and 63% respectively. The yield obtained ranged from 11.6t/ha to 22.3t/ha. The least yield was obtained in plot T2; while the highest yield was obtained in plot T1. All the assessed farmers maintained a 4day irrigation interval throughout the growing season. The highest crop water use efficiency (CWUE) of 62.80 kg/ha-mm was obtained in plot T1, with a corresponding crop water use (CWU) of 355 mm/season. The least CWUE was obtained in plot T2 (41.6kg/ha-mm) with a corresponding CWU of 399 mm/season. Based on the results obtained it can be deduced that plot T1 gives best results among the assessed farmers’ plots in terms of crop water use efficiency and effectiveness of irrigation, which maximizes net farm profit.

Published: July 2020

In a market economy, it becomes relevant to improve the organization management. The aim of solving this problem is to reduce the cost of production in order to increase its sales and increase competitiveness in the consumer goods market.
The current state of retail trade in Ukraine in terms of the enterprises development their shares in the total volume of trade, the use of business organization advanced principles, experts assess as rapidly developing. Even modern crisis phenomena in the economy are not of the nature that can change the trends in the qualitative transformations of retail trade.
The article analyzes the consumer goods market in Ukraine, which is developing most dynamically. It was found that the consumer goods market capacity has more than tripled recently and has a steady tendency towards further growth. At the same time, in addition to quantitative changes, this market is undergoing qualitative changes, which consist in changing the ratio between food and non-food products, as well as in changing the share of trade enterprises commodity circulation.
Existing approaches to organizing the supply chain, based on the idea of turnover as a continuous flow of materials, cannot provide the necessary efficiency of the supply chain due to the fact that they do not take into account very influential factors, such as the relatively long time between adjacent deliveries, the likelihood of a return on the products share and forwarding batch supplies. Therefore, the most appropriate is the presentation by the material flow of consumer goods as a partially ordered movement of goods individual discrete components, which are significantly influenced by both internal (rationalization of marketing and logistics assets in the promotion of material flows, rationalization of inventory management systems, the need for redistribution of stocks between parts of the supply chain), and external (competitive environment, social and geopolitical factors, level of service) factors.

Le Manuel d'art épistolaire d'Érasme

Le Manuel d'art épistolaire d'Érasme contient un certain nombre de références extrêmement critiques à l'égard de ses contemporains et de ses prédécesseurs dans le domaine. Cela semble suggérer qu'il va offrir des réflexions complètement nouvelles ou différentes, une suggestion que la lecture du traité ne confirme pas. On peut donc en conclure que les critiques d'Érasme ne représentent, dans une certaine mesure, qu'une sorte d'affectation. Les limites et le contenu de son manuel, en particulier ses commentaires sur les types de lettres et leurs caractéristiques ainsi que son procédé de fournir des exemples de lettres et de phrases, continuent une tradition établie par les premiers humanistes et certainement les écrivains progressistes du moyen âge qui eux-mêmes s'appuyaient sur la tradition rhétorique classique. Dans un domaine, cependant, Érasme va nettement plus loin que ses prédécesseurs. Une section du manuel s'adresse aux professeurs de l'art d'écrire plutôt qu'aux étudiants et traite de méthodes d'enseignement. Bien que les idées présentées dans ce contexte ne soient pas neuves et reprennent les théories de Quintilien et d'autres auteurs classiques, la présentation vivante et emphatique donne à cette section un caractère typiquement Erasmien et reflète l'intérêt pour la théorie de l'éducation qu'il a partagé sa vie durant.
Greed, hatred, and delusion in organisational life

Published: July 2020

Following the Tavistock tradition of psychoanalytic thinking, object relations theory, group relations training, and a systems psychodynamic approach to the study of organisational life, I broaden that perspective to inquire into the relevance of an upsurge of interest in Buddhist philosophy and practice, with its influence on mindfulness programmes to counter stress in contemporary life, as well as classical philosophy, for example Stoic writings on material success and attitudes to mortality. Why this interest at this time? What are we looking to learn?
DIFFERENCES IN SOCIAL BACKGROUND, STUDY CHOICE MOTIVATION AND HIGHER EDUCATION EXPERIENCE BETWEEN PRE-SERVICE CLASS TEACHERS AND PRE-SERVICE SUBJECT TEACHERS
Authors: Rogošić Silvia , Baranović Branislava
Published: July 2020

Considering that the disregard in teacher profession seems to be an observed problem in contemporary western societies which can result in a deficit of teachers, it is important to research reasons for enrolment into faculties of teacher education, factors which create a resistance towards the teacher education and teaching profession and possible differences between pre-service subject and pre-service class teachers related to these issues. Thus, the purpose of this research was to examine the differences in social background (level of human, financial, and social capital), motivation for selection of program of study and the experience of studying in higher education between pre-service class teachers and pre-service subject teachers. Theoretical background of research was based on Coleman’s theory of social mobility (1988) and the theory of motivation (Watt & Richardson, 2007). A quantitative research design was employed, and the survey was conducted. Sample comprised 455 pre-service (subject and class) teachers studying at the University of Zagreb, Croatia. The results of Welch ANOVA test showed that pre-service subject teachers possess a higher level of financial and human capital, more often are extrinsically motivated in choosing the program of study and have more positive experiences of studying than pre-service class teachers. The results of logistic binary regression showed that participants are more likely to select the subject teaching profession (instead of class teaching profession) if they take into consideration status and financial benefit of their future occupation more frequently, if, on average, they spend more money and if they have more family members who held university degrees. Findings led to the conclusion that programs of study for the education of subject teachers are more prestigious which is not in line with the Coleman’s theory of social mobility (1988) but are closer to the theory of cultural reproduction (Bourdieu, 1986).

Few patients with cancer, including those with acute myeloid leukemia and high-grade myeloid neoplasms, participate in clinical trials. Broadening standard eligibility criteria may increase clinical trial participation. In this retrospective single-center analysis, we identified 442 consecutive newly diagnosed patients from 2014 to 2016. Patients were considered eligible if they had performance status 0-2, normal renal and hepatic function, no recent solid tumor, left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) ≥ 50%, and no history of congestive heart failure (CHF) or myocardial infarction (MI); ineligible patients failed to meet one or more of these criteria. We included 372 patients who received chemotherapy. Ineligible patients represented 40% of the population and had a 1-79-fold greater risk of death (95% CI 1.37, 2.33) than eligible patients. Very few patients had cardiac co-morbidities, including 2% with low EF, 4% with prior CHF, and 5% with prior MI. In multivariable analysis, ineligibility was associated with decreased survival [HR 1-44 (95% CI 1-07, 1-93)]. Allogeneic transplantation, performed in 150 patients (40%), was associated with improved survival [HR 0-66, 95% CI (0-48, 0-91)]. Therefore, standard eligibility characteristics identify a patient population with improved survival. Further treatment options are needed for patients considered ineligible for clinical trials.
PEMERINTAHAN DAN BIROKRASI

Published: July 2020

Karl Marx states that bureaucracy is a parasitic and exploitative organization. Bureaucracy is an instrument for the powerful class to exploit other social groups of people (in their authority). Bureaucracy functions to maintain the privilege and status quo of the capitalist class. On the other hand, Hegel states that bureaucracy is a system created by the have class to deceive the lower classes to maintain and increase their own welfare. In this case bureaucracy becomes the scapegoat for all mistakes of the ruler toward the people. The whole mistakes of the ruler will finally come back to the bureaucracy which is only an instrument.Hegel explains that bureaucracy is an institution which occupies a neutral organic position in a social structure and it functions as a link in a country in manifesting the general needs civil society which represents special needs. Hegel sees that bureaucracy is bridge created to link different kinds of needs of people and state. Therefore the role of bureaucracy is very significant in unifying the perceptions and perspectives among countries and people in order to avoid a chaos happen. Keywords: governance, bureaucracy KARL MARX mengatakan Birokrasi adalah Organisasi yang bersifat Parasitik dan Eksploitatif. Birokrasi merupakan Instrumen bagi kelas yang berkuasa untuk mengekploitasi kelas sosial yang lain (yang dikuasai). Birokrasi berfungsi untuk mempertahankan privilage dan status quo bagi kepentingan kelas kapitalis. Dalam pandangan Marx yang berbeda dengan Hegel, birokrasi merupakan sistem yang diciptakan oleh kalangan atas (the have) untuk memperdayai kalangan bawah (the have not) demi mempertahankan dan meningkatkan kesejahteraan mereka sendiri. Dalam hal ini birokrasi menjadi kambing hitam bagi kesalahan penguasa terhadap rakyatnya. Segenap kesalahan penguasa akhirnya tertumpu pada birokrasi yang sebenarnya hanya menjadi alat saja.HEGEL mengatakan Birokrasi adalah institusi yang menduduki posisi organik yang netral di dalam struktur sosial dan berfungsi sebagai penghubung antara negara yang memanifestasikan kepentingan umum, dan masyarakat sipil yang mewakili kepentingan khusus dalam masyarakat. Hegel melihat, bahwa birokrasi merupakan jembatan yang dibuat untuk menghubungkan antara kepentingan masyarakat dan kepentingan negara yang dalam saat-saat tertentu berbeda. Oleh sebab itu peran birokrasi menjadi sangat strategis dalam rangka menyatukan persepsi dan perspektif antara negara (pemerintah) dan masyarakat sehingga tidak terjadi kekacauan. Kata Kunci: pemerintahan dan birokrasi

Walfare State concept born in the era of the 20th century as a correction of the development of the concept of the country as night watchman, the phenomenon of economic capitalism that gradually leads to lameness in the distribution of sources of prosperity. In the Walfare State concept, the state is required to extend its responsibility to the socio-economic problems facing the people. The functions of the state also include activities that were previously beyond the scope of state functions, such as extending the provision of social services to individuals and families in specific matters, such as social security. The role of the state can not be separated with Welfare State because the state that plays a role in managing the economy which includes the responsibility of the state to ensure the availability of basic welfare services in certain levels. Welfare State does not reject the existence of a capitalist market economy system but believes that there are elements in the public order that are more important than market objectives and can only be achieved by controlling and limiting the operation of such market mechanisms.Keywords: walfare state, country, economic systemKonsep Walfare State yang lahir di era abad ke-20 sebagai koreksi berkembangnya konsep negara sebagai penjaga malam, gejala kapitalisme perekonomian yang secara perlahan-lahan menyebabkan terjadinya kepincangan dalam pembagian sumber-sumber kemakmuran bersarma. Dalam konsep Walfare State, negara dituntut untuk memperluas tanggung jawabnya kepada masalah-masalah sosial ekonomi yang dihadapi rakyat. Fungsi negara juga meliputi kegiatan-kegiatan yang sebelumnya berada diluar jangkauan fungsi negara, seperti memperluas ketentuan pelayanan sosial kepada individu dan keluarga dalam hal-hal khusus, seperti social security, kesehatan.  Peran negara tidak bisa dipisahkan dengan Welfare State karena negara yang berperan dalam mengelola perekonomian yang yang di dalamnya mencakup tanggung jawab negara untuk menjamin ketersediaan pelayanan kesejahteraan dasar dalam tingkat tertentu. Welfare State tidak menolak keberadaan sistem ekonomi pasar kapitalis tetapi meyakini bahwa ada elemen-elemen dalam tatanan masyarakat yang lebih penting dari tujuan-tujuan pasar dan hanya dapat dicapai dengan mengendalikan dan membatasi bekerjanya mekanisme pasar tersebut. Kata Kunci: walfare state, negara,sistem ekonomi
Konflik Antara Agama dan Sains dalam Perspektif Filsafat Sosial
Authors: Sutarto Dendi
Published: July 2020

Abad ketujuh belas merupakan periode perubahan sudut pandang yang sangat krusial, terutama kelahiran ilmu pengetahuan. Dua hal yang sangat menonjol dalam perkembangan ilmu pengetahuan baru tersebut adalah Dialoque (1632) karangan Galileo dan Principia (1687) karangan Newton. Pemikiran kedua tokoh ini menjelaskan asal-usul persoalan antara ilmu pengetahauan dan agama yang menjadi pusat perhatian. Dalam perkembangan ilmu pengetahuan, tentu muncul “drama dunia abad pengetahuan” di mana “ dua ilmu pengetahuan baru Galileo dan dunia mesin Newtonian”. Kemudian sampai pada bagaimana kontribusi posistif agama terhadap ilmu pengetahuan baru dan hal-hal yang menjadi konflik utama dalam pergulatan antara agama dan sains. Secara historis, bagaimana perbedaan ilmu pengetahuan baru pada abad ketujuh belas dengan ilmu pengetahuan baru abad pertengahan? Fokusnya adalah kombinasi baru penalaran matematis dengan observasi eksprimental. Satu abad sebelumnya Galileo, pentingnya penyederhanaan matematis telah di dukung oleh Copernicus. Skema Ptolemaic, yang mengasumsikan bahwa matahari dan planet berputar mengelilingi bumi. Namun menurut model Copernicus, di mana planet-planet dan bumi berputar mengelilingi matahari, sesuai dengan pengamatan yang keakuratan sebanding. Lebih jauh dalam bingkai sejarah kemajuan ilmu pengetahuan abad pertengahan serta kuatnya otoritas gereja yang melihat bahwa relasi ilmu pengetahuan dan agama adalah sebagai dua kutub yang berlainan sama sekali, yang cenderung melahirkan konflik antara agama dan saint, karena keduanya berangkat dari ruang lingkup yang berbeda. Namun perlu dipahami bahwa secara singkat pendekatan yang diambil oleh pemikiran abad pertengahan, oleh Galileo, dan kemudian oleh Newton seperti berikut: merode dalam ilmu pengetahuan, karakter alam, metode dalam teologi, Tuhan dan hubungan dengan alam, dan hubungan manusiua dengan alam.
EFEKTIVITAS PEMEKARAN WILAYAH TERHADAP KINERJA PEGAWAI PEMERINTAH DALAM ERA OTONOMI DAERAH DI KOTA BATAM

Dengan dibukanya kran pemekaran wilayah sejak era reformasi, banyak daerah otonom baru yang sudah pisah dengan daerah induknya. Tercatat pada orde baru hanya 27 provinsi, hingga saat ini ada 34 provinsi. Sejak berlakunya Undang-Undang No 22 Tahun 1999 sebagai cikal bakal bagi daerah untuk memekarkan diri dari daerah induknya. Undang-Undang tersebut juga dianggap sebagai penguatan otonomi daerah dalam sistem pemerintahan di Indonesia, dulu yang sangat sentralistik tapi sekarang daerah diberi keleluasaan untuk mengurus rumah tangganya sendiri. Provinsi Kepulauan Riau, merupakan salah satu daerah yang memanfaatkan pemerkaran wilayah, khususnya Kota Batam. Provinsi Kepulauan Riau, sejak 2002 lepas secara administrasi dengan Provinsi Riau sebagai daerah induknya. Beberapa tahun yang lalu Kota Batam juga ada wacana untuk memekarkan wilayahnya, yang saat ini ada 12 Kecamatan, akan dimekarkan menjadi 16 kecamatan. Padahal dalam pelayanan publik, Kota Batam belum memerlukan daerah administrasi baru, yang dibutuhkan saat ini adalah corak Kota Batam itu sendiri. Selain itu masih banyak lagi permasalahan yang belum teratasi oleh pemerintah kota dalam memberikan pelayanan kepada masyarakat.

This research aims at finding out the illocutionary speech act on one Donald Trump’s speech in addressing the COVID-19 outbreak. The speech is conducted at Oval Office in 11 March 2020. This is a qualitative research that implemented the theory of speech act by Searle (1979). Result shows that Trumps made all five categories of illocutionary speech act with different amount of each category. The most utterances he made is assertive (54%). The type of assertive in his speech is boasting, claiming, describing, informing, and stating. The next category is commissive (29%) that consist of promising, and planning. In directive categories (15%) the utterance he made is commanding and advising. And Expressive (1%) consist of thanking and the last is  declarative (1%) can be seen from his utterance when he blessed the audiences.

This research primarily aimed to analyse the types of the illocutionary act proposed by Searle (1979),  secondly to find the dominant type produced by both sides, between barista and customers’ utterances at Starbucks coffeeshop Changi Airport. This research applied observational method and non-participatory technique as the way collecting the data. The design of this research were qualitative and quantitative research. Qualitative research is applied to analyse the data in the form text. In contrast, quantitative research used to count the number of utterances, to conclude which types of illocutionary acts find dominantly during the conversation. It was found that directive, representative, and expressive types were in the utterances. Meanwhile, commissive and declaration type did not find in the utterances. The result from this study showed that directives illocutionary act as the most frequently found in utterances, because the communication which takes place in coffeeshop between the baristas and customers usually only needed to ordering and just give information (informing).
TOWARDS 2000: STRATEGIES TO ACHIEVE MORE EFFICIENT FERTILISER USE IN INLAND SOUTH ISLAND HILL AND HIGH COUNTRY
Authors: Floate M.J.S. , Boswell C.C. , Allan B.E. , Scott D.
Published: July 2020

The future approach to efficient fertiliser use on hill and high country pastures must increasingly recognise that most farms are a complex mosaic of widely different environments - with an associated range in production potential, carrying capacity and fertiliser requirement. Although the importance of broad regional soil patterns has been recognised in the past, little allowance has been made for significant local landscape and soil variations. The plant nutrient needs of component parts of the landscape mosaic can be assessed by soil testing and met by fertiliser materials whose quantity and composition match those nutrient requirements in most situations. Strategies should be developed to ensure that fertiliser regimes, pasture plants and management practices are selected and orchestrated to make the most effective use of each mosaic component on each individual farm. In effect this involves selective fertiliser use, geared to the limitations, characteristics and growth patterns of individual landscape units, which are managed to meet the seasonal feed requirements of stock in the most cost effective way. A case study of Tara Hills is presented, showing how selective use of fertiliser on individually fenced landscape units can be matched to the use of these units (paddocks or blocks) in a management system designed to fit the seasonal Stock feed requirements for a high country pastoral run. Finally the importance of plant requirements, soil properties, grazing management, fertiliser form and composition, and spreading methods are reviewed with respect to fertiliser efficiency in the hill and high country.
