Authors: Capello Sarah , Yurkofsky Maxwell , Nii Bonney Edwin
Published: April 2023

Ongoing efforts to distinguish the EdD from the PhD as a professional practice doctorate have important implications for how research methodology courses are designed, sequenced, and taught in CPED-inspired EdD programs. Currently, there is much debate and little consensus as to what the purpose and outcomes of these courses should be and how the courses might differ from traditional doctoral-level methods preparation. In this first installment of the themed issue on redesigning research methods for CPED-inspired EdD programs, EdD faculty and students share their current redesign work and experiences implementing revised methodology courses as part of larger, practitioner-oriented program revisions.

Authors: Sohidul Islam Md. , Sajjad Md. , Mahmudul Hasan Mohammad , Sakib Islam Mazumder Mohammad
Published: April 2023

This study examines the different types of phishing attacks, which are a major threat to digital security. Phishing involves the use of fraudulent messages to deceive recipients, including email spoofing, spear phishing, phone phishing, clone phishing, pharming, HTTP phishing, man-in-the-middle attacks, and fast-flux phishing. Attackers can gather information about their targets from public sources such as social media networks, including work history, interests, and activities. The study developed a filtered website that detects fraudulent links based on the internet protocol (IP), register date, and domain name server (DNS) of each website. While further research is needed to improve the effectiveness of the site, this marks an important step towards enhancing digital security.

Published: April 2023

The methods used to predict how highly a person will evaluate a product or a group of people are known as recommendation systems. Books, movies, restaurants, and other products can be among the things commonly recommended. Objects where people differ in their preferences matter a lot. For predicting the preferences 2 methods are used, one a content based approach that considers the characteristic of an item, and the other is a collaborative method that evaluates choices by taking into account previous user behaviour. In this paper, a system for recommending fashion items is proposed, one that will base its recommendations on the provided clothing images' styles. The upper body and lower body clothing images, as well as those of a human model, are the main focus of this work. We have used the fashion image dataset from Kaggle website. This paper presents an idea to develop a content based recommendation system that uses convolutional neural network model, ResNet-50.

Mechanical Properties of Fireclay Bricks from Binaliw Clay
Authors: Dominic Baygan Gabriel , Abellana Virglio
Published: April 2023

Binaliw clay, considered to be local waste from crushing and quarrying operations, was utilized to produce fireclay bricks. The chemical and mineralogical composition of the raw material were determined through various tests. Clay samples were prepared by milling, sieving, molding, drying, and sintering from 8000C to 11000C at 1000C intervals for 2 hours. Mechanical properties such as cold crushing strength, volume firing shrinkage, apparent porosity, and bulk density were identified through the appropriate ASTM standards. It was found out that the aforementioned properties, except apparent porosity, increased with increasing temperature- apparent porosity decreased on the contrary. The polymorphic transformations of kaolin and quartz to mullite and cristobalite supported the trends of the mechanical properties at increasing temperatures. However, the values attained in this study were ineligible for classification according to ASTM C27-98 due to the values being lower than the stipulated requirement. Nevertheless, the researchers believe that through a refinement of the manufacturing processes and an addition of additives, Binaliw clay could be a feasible raw material for the production of  fireclay bricks.

Published: April 2023

Mobility of people has significantly increased. Daily and occasional trips consume a significant time in our whole life span. A comfortable and safe travel is prime need of any individual. Noise is an important parameter which defines the quality of life. Vehicular noise not only affects the outer environment of the vehicle but it also causes discomfort for the occupants travelling inside the vehicle. Noise reduction during journey is an important aspect for a comfortable travel. We are constantly exposed to various types of noise generated from vibrations. These vibrations produce longitudinal waves which are intercepted by our ear. Sensitivity of our auditory system depends on various factors, and age of individual is an important parameter. Apart from this the exposure of noise during lifetime is important criteria for long term auditory functions. Exposure of noise during travel is gaining significant importance as it decides our comfort level, and sleep duration. In this paper we examine the noise pressure level (dBA) during travel through filed data collection. The trips discussed are on road, rail and air.
O que me tornou quem sou?: (Geo)grafias de si na formação inicial de professores
Authors: Sabbado Menezes Victória
Published: April 2023

O artigo em tela apresenta investigação sobre o processo de construção da identidade profissional docente de licenciandas em Geografia de uma universidade estadual do Paraná. Para tal investigação, realizou-se uma revisão bibliográfica concernente ao ensino de Geografia, à formação de professores e à pesquisa (auto)biográfica. A pesquisa de campo abrange a adoção do método (auto)biográfico, a metodologia da pesquisa-formação e as fontes das narrativas (auto)biográficas das licenciandas. Estas foram analisadas em diálogo com os referenciais teóricos a partir das dimensões: Primeira Geografia (história de vida), Geografia escolar (memórias de escola), Geografia do outro (professores marcantes) e Geografias em construção (projeto de si). Observou-se que a identidade pessoal é indissociável da identidade profissional e que seus principais referenciais se associam à origem do campo e à ressignificação de suas memórias de ensino de Geografia na escola marcadamente tradicional e empirista. Isto as conduz para um projeto de si que se inspira em modelos de professores e que almeja a construção de uma Geografia escolar distinta da vivenciada na condição de alunas, isto é, um ensino que propicie a construção do conhecimento geográfico de forma crítico-reflexiva e contextualizada à realidade dos alunos. Portanto, verificou-se que a identidade docente é alimentada ao longo da caminhada existencial por meio dos itinerários de vida pessoal, de formação e de atuação profissional.
Silvestre, de Wagner William: constelação e rastro
Authors: Baz dos Santos Daniel
Published: April 2023

Este artigo pretende analisar a obra Silvestre, de Wagner William, a partir de noções provenientes do diálogo entre Walter Benjamin e Aby Walburg, sob a mediação das reflexões empreendidas por George Didi-Huberman. Com a ajuda destes teóricos, será possível demonstrar como as histórias em quadrinhos são territórios privilegiados para uma discussão sobre a história da cultura, suas crises e seus procedimentos de manutenção, além de estabelecer um conceito de imagem que prime por seus elementos desconfiguradores, disformes, não representáveis e pré-legíveis, que se convertem em estratégia de realização poética.
Viagens autodeslocantes e suas instabilidades nas rotinas de mobilidade estética
Authors: Roelofs Monique
Published: April 2023

Os ritmos repetitivos, as direcionalidades e os impulsos criativos exibidos por nossos comportamentos em viagem constituem assunto de notáveis obras de arte contemporâneas. Essas obras alcançam uma longa linhagem filosófica que entrelaça estética e viagens. Para Friedrich Schiller (1967), liberdade, igualdade e felicidade pública são o telos de uma viagem estética. A historiadora da arte Kobena Mercer (2016) reconhece no trabalho de artistas negros “passagens para novas liberdades”. Como são as possibilidades estéticas de nossas viagens em vista da força homogeneizadora do mercado global e da obstrução recorrente do movimento? Como a destruição ambiental, os esquemas de formação do sujeito neoliberal, as condições duradouras de desigualdade social e violência racial influenciam a estética das viagens na era atual? Este artigo esboça como as viagens artísticas nos gêneros da ópera-performance, desenho, romance e instalação cinematográfica afastam-se de esquemas mercantilizadores e consumistas de mobilidade estética para produzir roteiros transformados de endereçamento estético e relacionamento, a fim de engendrar mudanças sociais e políticas necessárias.

Published: April 2023

The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) a public health emergency of global significance in 2020. In accordance with Ayurveda, the norms of disease management in epidemics are best understood in the context of “Janapadodhwansha" a condition in which the elements of the environment air, water, land, and seasons become vitiated and simultaneously manifest as disease in large populations (epidemics), resulting in the destruction of human habitations. As the illness is viral in origin, no effective treatment has yet been found. To end the current outbreak, an effective medication is therefore very necessary. Ayurveda as one of the oldest systems of medicine gives priority to Āganthuja Jvara (fever origin from extrinsic causes). The symptoms and signs of Covid-19 have many similar features with Vāta and Kapha Jvara (body humors).The current study was based on a critical analysis on Dasa Panguwa herbal formula that widely used in the management of fever in Sri Lanka. The formula consisted of Acorus calamus L, Cedrus deodar, Coriandrum sativam, Clerondendron serratum, Fumariya parviflora, Munronia pumila, Myrica esculenta, Chlorocyperus salaamensis, Terminaliya chebuala, Zingiber officinale. It includes Katu (pungent), Tikta (bitter), Ushna Veerya (hot potency)properties with Deepana, (enhances stomach fire), Pāchana (digestion) and nourishes all the tissues and enhance immunity. The formula can be suggested as most suitable for Kapha Vāta predominant conditions based on pharmacological properties including other pharmacological activities were studied. Furthermore, the study revealed that most of the ingredients of the formula have been effective against corona due to antiviral, immune modulatory antioxidant effects of the ingredients.

Equilíbrio fiscal: participação das despesas de pessoal (DP) nas receitas correntes líquidas (RCL) dos estados brasileiros.
Authors:   , de Lima Maracaja Emanoela
Published: April 2023

Como decorrência da extensa trajetória deficitária das contas públicas em suas diferentes esferas de governo, foi instituído no dia 04 de maio de 2020 a Lei Complementar 101/2000, popularmente denominada de Lei de Responsabilidade Fiscal (LRF). A LRF almejava proporcionar uma conjuntura de equilíbrio fiscal recorrente para as contas públicas brasileiras, mediante o cumprimento de contrapartidas entre receitas e despesas, de restrição as condições de renúncia de receitas correntes e da subordinação governamental a limites de gastos em estratos específicos. Dentre desse contexto, este estudo teve como objetivo principal a análise do comprometimento da Receita Corrente Líquida (RCL) dos estados brasileiros com o montante anual dispendidos com a Despesa de Pessoal (DP). O tema foi selecionado em decorrência da relevância que o controle de gastos com folha de pagamento tem como prerrogativa basilar para a efetivação do equilíbrio fiscal. Metodologicamente, o estudo posiciona-se como descritivo, exploratório, bibliográfico e documental (balizado pelas informações contidas no Boletim de Finanças dos Entes Subnacionais do Tesouro Nacional). Os resultados, por sua vez demonstraram que no ano de 2018, 12 estados brasileiros já suplantavam o limite de 60% para a relação DP/RCL estabelecida como limite pela LRF, inclusive com tendência de agravamento como defluência da progressiva expansão relativa da participação no médio e longo prazo dos servidores inativos na DP. Como desfecho, averiguou-se a urgência no cumprimento das diretrizes elencadas na LRF e a concretização dos parâmetros definidos pelo Programa de Reestruturação e de Ajuste Fiscal (PAF).

The study examined the influence of international financial reporting standards on financial performance and taxation of five selected firms each from consumer goods, industrial goods and banking sectors in Nigeria between the period of 2009-2011 and post IFRS adoption period (2013-2020). The specific objectives of the study were to examine the effect of profitability of listed firms and IFRS adoption on taxation of selected firms in Nigeria. The study was anchored on agency and signaling theories. We employed descriptive statistics and paired sample t-tests in the analysis of data. Our findings show that mandatory adoption of IFRS has a significant impact on profitability of listed firms in Nigeria while IFRS has an insignificant impact on taxation of selected listed firms in Nigeria. There were no significant differences in the impact of IFRS adoption on profitability assessment between the key sectors of listed firms and there were no significant differences in the impact of IFRS adoption on taxation between the key sectors of listed firms in Nigeria. It was concluded that IFRS adoption has a significant possible impact on profitability and that taxation is significantly affected by IFRS adoption. Also, significant differences do not exist between the impact of IFRS adoption on the key sectors of listed firms in Nigeria, namely; consumer goods, industrial goods and the banking sectors. The study recommended amongst others that corporate managers should ensure compliance with IFRS since it positively impacts on profit.

Published: April 2023

The analysis presented in this article is a continuation of a broader qualitative study examining the composition of the chloroform fraction of Caltha palustris. The study discovered 29 compounds, and 26 of them have been identified:paraffinic hydrocarbons, esters, fatty aldehydes, morphine derivatives, thiazole derivatives, benzodiazepines, naphthalene, and a small amount of terpene. It was figured out that the investigated lipophilic extract has an antioxidant impact. For the investigation, there were used such assays as the DPPH radical and the ABTS radical cation assays. Moreover the investigated lipophilic extract has an antimicrobial activity both in terms of gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923 (F-49)), Bacillus cereus 34 (non-MDR), Enterococcus faecalis 26(MDR) and gram-negative, (Raoultella terrigena (ATCC 33257), Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922), Escherichia coli 168) microorganisms and yeast Candida spp. In addition, the significant content of biologically active substances in the lipophilic volatile fraction of Caltha palustris indicates the prospects for further study.

The primary goal of this research was to develop and test a herbal sunscreen cream containing Hibiscus (Hibiscus rosasinensis) and Rose flower extracts (Rosaceae). Hibiscus and Rose extractswere used in the formulation of oil in water (O/W) emulsion-based cream. Flower extracts were preparedusing the Soxhlet apparatus. The physicochemical parameters of the formulated herbal sunscreen creams were tested, including colour, odour, spreadability, pH, and viscosity.The centrifugation process was used to conduct the stability and sensitivity tests. A UV Spectrophotometric method of Mansur et al. was used to calculate the in-vitro SPF of the formulations. The flower extract-based sunscreen cream provided high absorbance in the 290-320nm wavelength range, with an SPF of 38.12-42.24. The ProShine MBTMGMIHS herbal formulation was found to be stable, spreadable, homogeneous, non-greasy, and displayed no signs of phase separation. The pH of the cream was found to between 5.5-6 which is nearer to the skin's pH.Also, after the microbial evaluation of ProShine MBTMGMIHS herbal sunscreen, no bacterial or fungal contamination was observed after incubation for a long period.We may assume from the study's findings that the formulated sunscreen can greatly improve and add to the UV absorption properties of conventional sunscreen formulations. It would also aid in the broadening of the sunscreen's UV defence performance, with the added benefit of preventing the negative and undesirable effects of synthetic sunscreen compounds.

Published: April 2023

The study aimed to analyze the phytochemical and pharmacological activities of the leaf extracts of E. crassipes. The hydroethanolic extract fractionated with different solvents (Hexane, Chloroform, ethyl acetate, n-Butanol and aqueous) was used for the analysis. The extracts were analyzed qualitatively for the presence of several phytochemical components. The plant powder was put through a series of different chemicals, and fluorescence emitted was analyzed. The fluorescence was analyzed in daylight and in ultraviolet-light (254nm, and 365nm). The fluorescence examination revealed that the plant powder fluoresces in various colours of dark green, brown, yellow in visible light, and varied shades of green, grey, reddish brown, and brown in UV light. The moisture content (25.1±1.38), and total ash value (16.18±1.39)was observed. The hydroethanolic extracting value was determined to be higher than hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, n-butanol, and aqueous. The findings of this study reveal that leaves contain a variety of phytoconstituents that can be employed as a natural source of antioxidants and for the creation of plant-based medications.

Published: April 2023

The pandemic has changed many physical activities involved in the internationalization of higher education process, such as academic mobility. This study investigated how virtual mobility (VM) can contribute to a more cooperative and inclusive internationalization process with more opportunities for the academic communities involved. With that aim, the perceptions of students from a university in the Global South involved in a VM program with a university from the Global North in the 2021/2022 academic year were analyzed. Data were collected through questionnaires and group interviews and analyzed qualitatively to discuss the affordances of VM for more inclusive and cooperative relationships between universities from the Global South and North. Overall, results of the study suggest that although the VM program was designed by the university in the Global North without the cooperation of the university from the Global South, the students involved were positively impacted by their participation in the program and collaboration with students from the Global North, which in turn, contributed to their knowledge and research topic development.

Published: April 2023

With the wave of the pandemic in the recent years resulting in a sudden shift from offline learning to online learning sessions, assessments had been revised to adapt to the changes. This study was conducted with the aim of eliciting the lecturers’ and students’ perspectives on the difficulties faced by them in the implementation of online oral presentation in Malaysian English classrooms. This study employed a qualitative approach by interviewing 15 students and 6 instructors on the practice of online oral presentation assessments. The data were analysed employing thematic analysis. It was found that the challenges faced by the lecturers were in terms of providing feedback and number of students, while time management, practice arrangement, technical problems, and lack of feedback were the challenges faced by the students. This study recommends the faculty and the management to look into these issues so that both lecturers and students could optimise their time and materials for teaching and learning purposes. It is also suggested to consider the perspectives from the faculty and management for future research as they are the decision makers towards the curriculum.
