Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Lee Sook-young , Yoo Seongmo , Yang Hyeon-jeong
Published: January 2025

Objectives This study aims to explore the path leading to smartphone addiction in middle school students by setting parental attitude, self-esteem, and self-control as the key variables influencing smartphone addiction. Parental attitude is considered a family environment variable, while self-esteem and self-control are individual variables. The goal is to investigate how these variables affect smartphone addiction in middle school students from both structural and path perspectives.
Methods To this end, a meta-analytic path analysis was conducted on 40 domestic studies that reported the correlation coefficient between smartphone addiction and related variables among studies published up to February 2024 on the topic of smartphone addiction among adolescence middle school students.
Results A hypothetical model was established to investigate the structural relationships between key variables related to smartphone addiction in middle school students, namely parental attitude, self-esteem, and self-control. A meta-analytic path analysis was conducted, and the results showed that the average effect size between smartphone addiction and each variable was greatest for self-control, followed by self-esteem and parental attitude. Significant results were found for all paths. Specifically, self-esteem and self-control showed full mediating effects in the relationship between parental attitude and smartphone addiction. The total effect influencing smartphone addiction was found to be most significantly impacted by the self-control variable.
Conclusions Based on the results of examining the pathways and influences of parenting attitudes, self-control, and self-esteem variables on smartphone addiction, this study aims to provide evidence that can be used as a reference for the prevention and countermeasures of smartphone addiction in adolescence middle school students.

Conclusions It is believed that it will contribute to the provision of basic data presented in government policies on sleep and nutrition in the university textbooks for children's health education of teacher training.
Az evangélikus értelmiségképzésről és „túliskolázásról” a dualista Magyarországon
Authors: Karády Viktor
Published: January 2025

A tanulmány néhány alapvető statisztikai mutató segítségével tárgyalja a hazai evangélikusság helyzetét a dualista kor elitképzési és értelmiségi piacain. Minden jelzés megerősíti a lutheránus népesség köztes helyzetét a polgárosultsági és iskolázottsági hierarchiákban a zsidóság és a nyugati kereszténységhez tartozó többi felekezeti agregátum között. A zsidóság mellett egyedül az evangélikusok bővítették folyamatosan értelmiségük újratermelését a nemzetépítés szem-pontjából döntő évtizedekben 1870 és 1910 között. Az evangélikus népesség és értelmiség re-gionális megoszlásán belül egyfajta „kelet-nyugati lejtő” figyelhető meg az erdélyi szászság kiemelkedő iskolázottsági szintje következtében.
A soproni evangélikus teológiai akadémia önképzőkörének története a kezdetektől az 1867. évi újjászerveződésig
Authors: Csermelyi József
Published: January 2025

Tanulmányomban a soproni evangélikus teológiai akadémián 1858-ban alapított diáktársaság történetének első tíz évével foglalkozom. Ez az egyfelől önképzési, másfelől a hallgatók közötti szolidaritást és baráti viszonyt elősegítő céllal létrehozott egyesület alapításától kezdve folya-matosan működött egészen a II. világháború végéig. Története gazdag volt eredményekben, ám ez elsősorban az 1867 utáni időszakra igaz, az általam tárgyalt korai időszak eltérő működési mechanizmusa sok tekintetben kudarcosnak bizonyult és egy időben a megszűnés szélére sodorta az akkor még nem túl jó hírnévnek örvendő szervezetet. Igyekeztem egyrészt magyarázatot találni az egylet megalapítása mögötti okokra, mivel a soproni líceumon belül korábban is működött már diáktársaság, másrészt feltárni a kezdeti lelkesedést követő ered-ménytelenség okait. Az 1864/65-ös tanévtől kezdve a többek között a későbbi dunántúli püspököt, Gyurátz Ferencet is a soraiban tudó tagság törekedett a szakmai téren is előremutató működésre, azonban a tényleges változtatáshoz végül a tanári kar segítségére és többek között Karsay Sándor püspök támogatására volt szükség, ez vezetett el az 1867. évi szervezeti reformig, amely immár egy sokkal hagyományosabb, tanári vezetés mellett alapos szakmai munkát foly-tató önképzőkörhöz vezetett.
Evangélikus gimnáziumok szerepe a főnemesek oktatásában a dualizmus korában – hét intézmény összehasonlító elemzése
Authors: Rébay Magdolna
Published: January 2025

A főnemesek dualizmus kori iskoláztatási szokásainak feltérképzése céljából az elmúlt évtizedben különböző fenntartásban álló gimnáziumok tanulói adatsorát tekintettük át elsősorban értesítők, másodsorban anyakönyvek alapján. Vizsgálatunkba hét evangélikus gimnáziumot is bevontunk: a budapestit, a pozsonyit, a selmecbányait, a békéscsabait és a szarvasit, valamint az eperjesit és a nyíregyházit. Megállapíthattuk az evangélikus tanulók arányának visszaszorulását, valamint a magyar nyelvi asszimiláció kibontakozását. Az iskolák között viszont jelentős különbségek is felfedezhetők, amelyek – megvizsgálva valamennyi evan-gélikus középiskolát – a tipizálás szükségességét vetítik előre. Az arisztokrata tanulók (összesen 149 fő a hét gimnáziumban) több mint harmada a pozsonyi intézményben tanult. A budapesti gimnáziumot választók fele izraelita felekezetű volt. A főnemes diákok többsége viszont a fen-ntartó egyházhoz tartozott és nem magán, hanem nyilvános tanulóként iratkozott be. Viszonylag sokan változtattak a tanulmányi státuszukon, ami az arisztokraták jobb anyagi helyzetéből fakadó rugalmasságára utal. Az egyes iskolákban jellemzően 2–4 évet töltöttek el, ami a nagyfokú intézményi mobilitást bizonyítja.
Szerkesztői bevezető
Authors: Ugrai János
Published: January 2025

Száz éve jelent meg az 1924. évi XI. törvénycikk a középiskoláról. A hosszas előkészüle-tek után elfogadott törvény volt hivatott megújítani az akkor már több mint négy évtizede érvényben lévő Trefort-féle eredeti középiskolai törvényt. A legfontosabb fejlemény az ún. trifurkáció, azaz a gimnázium és a reáliskola mellett egy harmadik középiskolai típus, a reálgimnázium bevezetése, s az ezekben az iskolatípusokban szerezhető bizonyítványok egységesítése. Mindez kiegészült a Vallás- és Közoktatásügyi Minisztérium határozott törekvésével, miszerint a már meglévő – akár egyházi kézben lévő – humángimnáziumo-kat reálgimnáziumokká alakítsák át. A hétköznapi szükségletekhez, s nem mellesleg az ország újjáépítéséhez és a fenyegető értelmiségi munkanélküliség csillapításához jobban illeszkedő iskolatípus azonban nem stabilizálódott a magyar oktatási struktúrában. Az oktatástörténeti emlékezetünkben oly kiemelt helyet kapó Klebelsberg Kuno kultuszmi-niszter hiába védte a törvényt, s ösztönözte a reálgimnáziumok alapítását, a szakma kü-lönböző szintjein masszív ellenállásba ütközött. Nem túlzás azt állítani, hogy a középisko-lai törvényt megalapozó viták kétszer olyan hosszú ideig tartottak, mint ameddig aztán a szabályzat hatályban maradt. Tíz évvel később az egységes középiskoláról szóló újabb törvény épp a gimnázium monopóliumát szentesítette.

A klebelsbergi középiskolai reform reprezentációja a korabeli tudományos diskurzusban: A Magyar Paedagogia példája (1921–1934)
Authors: Szabó Zoltán András
Published: January 2025

Jelen kutatás célja annak vizsgálata, hogy az 1924. évi középiskolai törvény miképpen reprezentálódott az 1921 és az 1934 közötti magyarországi neveléstudományi diskurzusban. A tanulmány három aspektust, a középiskola témájának hivatkozási intenzitását, az egyes iskolatípusok egymáshoz való arányait, valamint a hivatkozások tartalmi aspektusait vizsgálja. A kutatás primer forrásbázisát a Magyar Paedagogia című folyóirat adta, melyet deduktív és hibrid tartalomelemzési eljárások kombinációjával dolgoztam fel. A vizsgálat eredményei intenzív, de hullámzó, tematikai szempontból is változó hivatkozottságot mutatnak, melyben kiemelt szerep jut a jogszabály évének, a humán gimnáziumnak és a reformkényszer témájának.

Published: January 2025

El artículo tiene por objetivo analizar los determinantes sociales, políticos y jurídicos que se constituyen en la base para la estructuración de una política pública de atención integral para los habitantes de calle, localizados en la ciudad de Cúcuta. La presente es una investigación sociojurídica y centrada en un enfoque constitucional donde se usa como herramienta el análisis documental y el instrumento se sintetiza en las fichas bibliográficas. Se concluye que Cúcuta carece de una política integral que reconozca a los habitantes de calle en su dignidad humana y que apunte a disminuir los factores que determinan su condición y situación en materia de salud, vivienda, emprendimiento y educación. Al final, se establecen las recomendaciones jurídicas, políticas y sociales que sirven de sustento a la formulación de una política pública.
CARREGO NÃO É COLONIAL
Authors: Carneiro Araújo Patrício
Published: January 2025

Tomando como base a análise de material etnográfico recolhido durante uma pesquisa de Pós-Doutorado em Antropologia Social, na UFRN (2022), este artigo dialoga com o conceito de “Carrego colonial”, proposto por Luiz Antônio Simas e Luiz Rufino (2019), em sua obra Uma flecha no tempo. Tal conceito tem sido muito replicado no contexto de estudos decoloniais em diferentes áreas do conhecimento. Mesmo reconhecendo a potencialidade heurística do conceito, o modismo em torno dele inflaciona sua capacidade analítica, criando aproximações acríticas entre a palavra que se refere a um importante artefato sagrado da diáspora africana no Brasil e os resquícios de colonialidade com os quais o artefato não mantém relação. Há aqui uma questão que passa pelo plano da linguagem, mas que vai além dela. Para ampliar a discussão, a partir dos sentidos êmicos, socialmente compartilhados pelo povo de candomblé em torno da palavra e da coisa, retomamos a filosofia do conhecimento proposta por Simas e Rufino, questionando o conceito e propondo caminhos alternativos à operacionalização de uma linguagem compatível com uma desconstrução de formas de colonialidade, ainda presentes no plano da linguagem.
DEVELOPMENT OF THE ANDROID-BASED SINGLE-PLAYER GAME COOKING CHAOS
Authors: Kartikasari Meivi , Hilmi Aulia Wahida
Published: January 2025

Cooking is the process of preparing food from its raw state until it is ready to be served, using heat to make it easier for the body to digest. However, nowadays, many teenagers lack an understanding of how to cook due to limited practice and a tendency to buy food from outside, which is considered more convenient. High levels of activity outside the home also contribute to the decreasing frequency of cooking among teenagers. Additionally, the convenience offered by food delivery applications, coupled with various attractive promotions, further contributes to the decline in interest in cooking. To address this issue, an educational single-player game application based on Android was developed, utilizing Unity 3D as the game engine and Blender for 3D object modeling. This application is designed to provide a more detailed cooking experience by offering 11 recipes that users can learn. Moreover, there is a mini-game in the form of a quiz to test users' understanding of the cooking process. Testing results show that this application successfully increased users' interest in learning to cook by 80.3%.
FUSING SATELLITE DATA TO MONITOR SEA LEVEL CHANGES: A DEM-BASED NEAREST NEIGHBOR APPROACH

Published: January 2025

High spatial and temporal resolution satellite imagery is essential for monitoring rapid environmental changes at finer scales. However, no single satellite currently provides images with both high spatial and temporal resolution. To overcome this limitation, spatiotemporal image fusion algorithms have been developed to generate images with improved spatial and temporal detail. Water level monitoring is also crucial for managing natural hazards like floods and tsunamis, but remote sensing satellites face challenges in continuous monitoring due to either low spatial or temporal resolution. For instance, while Landsat 8, with a spatial resolution of 30 meters, has been used for water level detection, it cannot capture fast-changing events because of its low temporal resolution. Conversely, the Advanced Himawari Imager (AHI) 8 offers observations every 10 minutes but has a coarse spatial resolution, limiting its ability to map sea level changes accurately. This study focuses on integrating Landsat and AHI imagery to monitor local and dynamic sea level changes. The process involves calibrating images from the study area to surface reflectance and co-registering them. The Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) is calculated from both Landsat and Himawari-8 images, serving as input for image fusion. In the previous study, the Spatial and Temporal Adaptive Reflectance Fusion Model (STARFM) is used for image fusion. In this study we use the application of Spatial Temporal Adaptive Algorithm for Mapping Reflectance Change (STAARCH) for the image fusion step. Since traditional methods are influenced by land cover changes, this study proposes a method called DEM-based Nearest Neighbor to select appropriate land cover maps for image fusion. Evaluation results demonstrate that this approach can produce accurate water coverage maps with both high spatial and temporal resolution.

Published: January 2025

Introduction /Objective. This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic
efficacy of combining traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) eye-coating agents
with levofloxacin in treating patients with a hordeolum. Methods. Using
convenience sampling, 110 patients with a hordeolum treated at Tianjin Eye
Hospital between March and June 2018 were included in this study. Patients
were randomly divided into three groups: a coating agents group (coating
agents + levofloxacin, n = 37), a wash group (eyelid wash + levofloxacin, n
= 38) and a control group (levofloxacin alone, n = 35). Data on nodule size
and visual analogue scale (VAS) scores for pain were collected before
treatment and at three, five and seven days after treatment. Treatment
efficacy was assessed after seven days, and comparisons were made between
the three groups regarding nodule size, VAS scores and therapeutic outcomes.
Results: Repeated-measures analysis of variance showed significant time
effects, group effects and time-group interactions for both nodule size and
VAS scores (p < 0.05). Over time, all groups exhibited a significant
reduction in nodule size and VAS scores compared with the baseline. Pairwise
comparisons revealed that on days 3, 5 and 7, the order for nodule size and
VAS scores was consistent across the groups: coating agents group = wash
group < control group. Treatment efficacy comparisons were statistically
significant (94.59% vs. 86.84% vs. 71.43%, ?2 = 7.622, p < 0.05), with the
order from highest to lowest efficacy being as follows: coating agents?
group = wash group > control group. Conclusion: The combination of TCM eye
coating agents with levofloxacin shows promise in treating a hordeolum,
effectively reducing eyelid swelling and pain, shortening healing time and
improving treatment success rates.
Analyzing the variations in the composition and properties in zirconia alumina composite ceramics

Published: January 2025

The effect of unstabilized zirconium dioxide on the processes of formation of
composite ceramics from industrial corundum powders heat-treated at
temperatures of 1430 and 1580?C, changes in its microstructure and physical
and mechanical properties have been investigated. It was shown that due to
the rigid corundum matrix, unstabilized ZrO2 is preserved mainly in the
tetragonal phase. When ceramics are sintered during heat and self-diffusion,
zirconium particles are located along the grain boundary of the corundum
matrix and fill the pore space. The sintering effect of amorphous SiO2 also
contributes to the increased density of ceramics. A two-stage sintering mode
provides a finer-grained microstructure of ceramics. It was shown that due
to the presence of a larger number of ZrO2 grains capable of
t-m-transformation at the Al2O3 boundaries, the resistance of composite
ceramics to mechanical and thermal loads increases. Ceramics obtained at
1580?C and containing 6.0 wt. % t-ZrO2 possesses the maximum hardness of 17
GPa. Dilatometric characteristics and the values of the relative shrinkage
of composite samples are given.

Published: January 2025

This study offers new approach to the non-ferrous metals? concentration from
Pb-Zn slag using a magnetic separation. This technology is more ecological
than conventional processes, therefore it may have a substantial influence
on the progress of metallurgical slag beneficiation techniques.
Physicochemical and mineralogical investigations indicated that Pb-Zn slag
is an inhomogeneous with considerable Pb, Zn, Cu, and Ag amounts.
Experiments showed that the separated magnetic fraction includes unequal
quantities of arsenic, preventing the output from being commercial. Arsenic
content was 0.3-32%. Optical and scanning electron microscopy with EDS
determined if arsenic can be liberated or easily leached from the resulting
material. It was discovered that arsenic is mainly fused with iron-bearing
minerals, which are predominantly trapped within amorphous alumino-silicates
or intergrowths of alloy grains and glassy phases. This indicates that the
produced iron concentrate is viable as a commercial product and in
compliance with circularity principles and Green Agenda.
Data Analytics and Operational Efficiency
Authors: Kausar Asad , Lim Jee-Hae , Park You-il
Published: January 2025

SYNOPSIS

In a hand-collected sample of U.S. public firms from 2004 to 2018, we investigate the impact of data analytics (DA) adoption on future operational efficiency. Utilizing a propensity score matching difference-in-differences methodology, we find that DA adoption leads to significantly higher one-year ahead operational efficiency, as measured by data envelopment analysis. This positive effect persists for at least two years, and both basic and advanced analytics adoption contribute to this improvement. Furthermore, we find that one-year ahead return on assets and asset turnover are improved for DA-adopting firms, without increasing capital expenditure or cost of goods sold, and potentially even reducing employee salaries or marketing-related expenses. Cross-sectional analyses reveal that the benefits of DA adoption are particularly pronounced for firms operating in more complex or informationally uncertain environments. Our findings provide valuable insights for managers seeking to leverage DA to enhance operational efficiency and achieve sustainable long-term performance gains.

The following study aimed to optimize CO2 laser processing parameters for 1.2379 cold work tool steel to improve its surface properties. As its applications required high durability, strength, and precision, surface roughness and microhardness values were adjusted by varying laser power from 70% to 92%, laser speed from 1 to 5 mm/s, and stand-off distance from 4 to 6 mm. Using these background procedures, this specific study was performed to improve the manufacturing of tool steels used under extreme conditions. Scanning electron microscopy and profilometry were used to identify optimal settings that significantly improved the steel’s surface and subsurface appearances. A speed of 3 mm/s with a power of 81% and a stand-off distance of 5 mm resulted in minimized kerf width, kerf morphology, and spacing and improved uniformity. Using the energy dispersive x-ray spectrum, changes also measured in the distribution of elements, such as the increase in iron and chromium at the surface level of the steel. The effect of the parameters was quantified using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the Taguchi method, which showed us the proportion of variance that could be described by the amount and specific parameters, with stand-off having the most impact. In this study, the specific effects of certain laser parameters on the microstructural and mechanical properties of cold work tool steel 1.2379 were recorded.

A comunidade universitária, composta por universitários, técnicos administrativos (ADM) e docentes, enfrenta um estilo de vida sedentário, o que tem preocupado devido às implicações negativas para a saúde. Estudos mostram que o ambiente acadêmico contribui para a redução das práticas regulares de atividade física (AF), aumentando o risco de doenças crônicas não transmissíveis (DCNT. O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar as prevalências do Nível de Atividade Física (NAF) e Prontidão de Mudança de Comportamento (EPMC) e a presença de morbidades entre membros de uma comunidade universitária brasileira. O estudo descritivo transversal, envolveu uma amostra não probabilística de 645 membros de uma comunidade universitária privada, composta por universitários, técnicos ADM e docentes, em duas cidades do interior de São Paulo. A coleta de dados foi feita via formulários online, incluindo questionário sociodemográfico, Critério de Classificação Econômica Brasileira, IPAQ curto (para NAF), EPMC e questionário sobre morbidades. A análise de dados utilizou estatística descritiva e o teste Qui Quadrado para tendência linear, com significância de p≤0,05. Os dados apontaram que universitários e técnicos ADM têm características similares em termos de NAF e EPMC, enquanto os docentes apresentaram padrões diferentes. A maioria dos participantes foi classificada como suficientemente ativa (64%) e no estágio de contemplação do EPMC (41,4%), sem a presença de morbidades. Os resultados destacam a necessidade de abordagens multidisciplinares para desenvolver intervenções de saúde pública que considerem as características sociodemográficas e socioeconômicas dos indivíduos.
The Psychological Aspect of Building a Career for Female Recruiters and Women Who Have Their Own Businesses
Authors: Grishina A. V. , Shapovalova E. V. , Dyakova E. V.
Published: January 2025

Introduction. The article is devoted to the study of the problem of building a career for women in a transitive society. The variability of theoretical approaches to the study of professional careers in psychological science has made it possible to emphasize the most meaningful conceptual vector in considering the specifics of women’s careers while taking into account reflexible and personally significant changes – a synergistic approach. The contribution of the current professional status of a woman to the career building process is discussed. It will determine the possible area of psychological assistance and support for women in matters of professionalization for the effective solution of their work tasks and the development of aspirations in achieving professional self-realization.

Objective. To analyze the psychological aspects of career building by women who are hired and run their own business.

Materials and Methods. The research methods are presented by the author’s socio-demographic questionnaire, a questionnaire of behavior and experience associated with work (adaptation of T. I. Ronginskaya), a scale of professional apathy (adaptation of A. A. Zolotarev), a method of studying the type and level of professional self-realization (author E. A. Gavrilova). In order to confirm the hypothetical assumptions, the Mann-Whitney U-test was used to analyze the reliability of differences in the studied variables.

Results. The empirical sample consisted of 100 working women from 24 to 50 years old, of which 50 women are employed and 50 women run their own business (self-employment, individual entrepreneurship). As the results of the study, statistically significant differences were obtained, emphasizing different ways of professionalization of female recruiters and women who have their own business. The prevailing trends in the content characteristics of the professional sphere of women are shown.

Discussion. The results of the study led to two main empirically important conclusions: female recruiters cannot fully reveal their professional potential, since there is a tendency to inconsistency of the value structures of the work performed and poor satisfaction with the workplace; women who have their own business show more openness in the performance and implementation of professional goals, leading to multidimensional professionalization.
Risk-Taking as a Personality Trait of Self-Regulation: a Cross-Cultural Approach
Authors: Selezneva Yu. V. , Tarasova A. Yu.
Published: January 2025

Introduction. The high level of stress and uncertainty of the modern world requires the study of a person’s personal resources and the identification of conditions that increase the possibilities of self-regulation. The article is devoted to the study of risk readiness as a property of self-regulation among representatives of various ethnocultural groups. Risk appetite is a personal characteristic that acts as an adaptive resource in a situation of uncertainty and requires the actualization of the personal and intellectual potential of the subject.

Objective. Study of risk appetite as a personal property of self-regulation among representatives of various ethno-cultural groups.

Materials and Methods. Problem is studied with using such methods: “Personal factors of decision-making” (T. N. Kornilova); “Style of self-regulation of behavior – SSP-98” (V. I. Morosanov); “Meaning-life orientations” by D. A. Leontiev; “Personal Views Survey, PVS III-R” (Salvatore R. Maddi, D. M. Khoshaba) in the adaptation of D. A. Leontiev; Tomsk rigidity questionnaire (G. V. Zalevsky); The Melbourne Decision Making Questionnaire (MDMQ) (in the adaptation of T. V. Kornilova). Mathematical data processing was carried out using the statistical criteria of U-Mann-Whitney, N-Kraskual-Wales and the Pearson correlation coefficient.

Results. In the field of personal resources of self-regulation (meaning-life orientations, resilience), no differences were found, however, with respect to decision-making strategies, statistically significant differences were recorded on the Rationality and Risk Readiness scales. In the studied groups, respondents with high scores on the “Risk Readiness” scale recorded differences in self-regulation scales related to personal mechanisms of self-regulation (“Flexibility”, “Independence”). In relation to representatives of the Chechen ethnic group, significant differences were recorded on the following scales: “Planning”, “Programming”, “Flexibility”, “Independence”, “General level of self-regulation”. According to the results of the correlation analysis, all groups (Armenians, Chechens, Russians) recorded positive links between the “Risk Readiness” scale and the “Flexibility” and “Independence” scales.

Discussion. The results of the study significantly enrich the ideas about the resources of self-regulation, allowing us to consider the ethno-cultural potential in a new way. The study of psychological phenomena in conjunction with ethnic originality represents a promising area of modern research. Our study substantiates the thesis that risk readiness can act as an adaptive resource and ensure the effectiveness of self-regulation processes.

Introduction. Thanks to the government support and the innovative management system, the Iraqi education system has become not just educational institutions, but a modern hierarchical structure that meets the needs of modernity, directly related to the growth and development of the nation. Studying the problems and prospects of higher education management in Iraq will help young people entering a student exchange program decide on their choice of educational institution and professional direction. To identify the main challenges that most universities and institutes in Iraq have faced over the past few years, we used three different metaphors to view them: as machines, as organisms, and finally as cultures. This is due to the fact that any theory for studying an organization, although it can provide valuable information, is biased and incomplete.

Objective. Analyze the current educational system to see the problems and foresee the prospects of higher education in Iraq.

Universities as machines. Using this metaphor, it was found that the Iraqi higher education system has a problem of violation of hierarchy by its superiors in the case of management. Also, the problem of lack of encouragement of initiative was found to be present, which hinders the development of students’ critical thinking. In addition, the problems of internal coordination of colleges, imbalance between authority and responsibility, lack of educational programs, and efficiency were found.

Universities as organisms. According to this metaphor, the review of universities takes into account the external environment and possible patterns of change. At this stage of the review, problems such as degradation of the higher education system due to harsh conditions in the country and government interference were identified, the inapplicability of the classical approach to universities in Iraq, the lack of support for teachers from the administration, a high degree of centralization, and the influence of political parties and religious groups on higher education in the country. Universities as cultures. At this stage of the review, culturally based problems such as conservatism, consequently, and resistance to change, survival orientation, and ineffective fight against corruption were identified.

Discussion. In the subject field overview, there is much conflicting evidence on individual problems specific to higher education in Iraq. However, its presence is undeniable and the result of this review is a comprehensive list of growth areas of Iraqi higher education.

Authors: Rini Lenny Dwi Fajar , Sa'id Ibrahim Bin , Anggraini Atika
Published: January 2025

This study aims to determine the effect of reed rhizome extract at concentrations of 8 ml, 12 ml, 16 ml, and 20 ml on the growth of teki grass. A randomized block design was used with five treatments and six replications. The herbicide spraying process was carried out every four days at 8:00 AM, with a spraying volume of 250 ml per polybag. Data collection was conducted every four days until ten sets of observation data were obtained. The data were analyzed using various statistical methods. The Smallest Significant Difference (SSD) test was performed at the 5% significance level if significant differences were found. The analysis continued with the calculation of the percentage of teki grass mortality. The results indicated that the lowest mortality rate occurred in the t1 treatment (8 ml), while the highest mortality was observed in the t4 treatment (20 ml), with an average mortality rate of 1.20%. This is due to the high concentration of herbicides that control teki grass weeds. These results support the allelopathic theory, which suggests that the phenolic compounds in reeds may act as growth inhibitors. The implications of this research contribute to sustainable agricultural practices.ABSTRAK: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh ekstrak rimpang alang-alang pada konsentrasi 8 ml, 12 ml, 16 ml, 20ml terhadap pertumbuhan rumput teki. Penelitian ini menggunakan Rancangan Acak Kelompok dengan 5 perlakuan dan 6 ulangan. Proses penyemprotan herbisida dilakukan setiap 4 hari sekali pada pukul 08.00 WIB dengan volume penyemprotan sebanyak 250 ml tiap polybag. Pengambilan data dilakukan setiap 4 hari sekali sampai mendapatkan 10 data pengamatan. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis dengan menggunakan sidik ragam, jika terdapat perbedaan yang nyata maka dilakukan dengan uji Beda Nyata Terkecil (BNT) pada taraf 5%. Metode analisis dilanjutkan menghitung persentase kematian rumput teki. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tingkat kematian terendah pada perlakuan t1 (8ml) dan kematian tertinggi terdapat pada perlakuan t4 (20ml) dengan rata-rata kematian sebesar 1.20. Hal ini disebabkan karena tingginya konsentrasi herbisida yang digunakan untuk mengendalikan gulma rumput teki. Hasil ini mendukung teori alelopati yang menunjukkan bahwa fenol dalam alang-alang berpotensi bertindak sebagai stimolator pertumbuhan. Implikasi penelitian ini mengarah pada praktik pertanian berkelanjutan.
