Türkiye’de Eğitimde Yaşanan Bölgesel Farklılıklar
Authors: ILGAR Rüştü
Published: November 2023

Birey ve toplumun ilerlemesinde en önemli nokta eğitimdir fakat aynı zamanda eğitimde toplumun sosyal ve ekonomik durumu ile ilişkilidir. Bu bağlamda eğitime yıllar içerisinde verilen önem artmıştır ve birtakım çözülmesi gereken sorunlar da doğmuştur. Dünya genelinde eğitim alanında yaşanan en önemli sorunlardan birisi eğitime ulaşım noktasında yaşanan eşitsizliklerdir. Ekonomik gelişmişlik düzeyleri, sosyo-kültürel etkenler, politik nedenler gibi birtakım unsurlar bölgeler arasında eğitim farklılıklarına yol açmaktadır.

Nitel araştırmalarda en sık tercih edilen veri toplama aracı olarak gözlem ve yazılı dokümanların incelenmesi tercih edilmiştir. Bu sebeple betimsel araştırma yöntemine başvurulmuştur.

Türkiye geneli okullaşma oranları, eğitime katılım gibi göstergeler incelendiğinde bölgesel farklılıklar göze çarpmaktadır. Türkiye’de eğitimde yaşanan bölgesel farklılıklar ve bu farklılıkların sebepleri incelendiğinde iki ana etken sosyo-ekonomik ve sosyo-kültürel etkinin varlığı görülmektedir.

Avrupanın en büyük coğrafyasının doğal bir sonucuudur. Çözüm ise yine eğitim yoluyla gerçekleşecektir. Eğitim politikalarının belirlenmesinde bu gerçeklerin dikkate alınması kaçınılmaz bir zorunluluktur.

Marriage, firmly entrenched in tradition and societal norms, has long stood as a cornerstone of stable societies. Nevertheless, in the contemporary context, it is judicious to engage in a critical examination of whether we are genuinely upholding the family's sanctity and the integrity of this union. Throughout history, marriage has functioned as a legal and social covenant, providing the foundation for procreation, inheritance, and familial alliances. It has often been revered as a sacred connection, a fusion of hearts and minds, and a solemn commitment. In recent years, the landscape of our society has witnessed profound changes. Factors such as individualism, materialism, shifting gender roles, and economic self-sufficiency have prompted inquiries into the relevance and viability of marriage and the family unit. The erosion of moral values, postponement of marriage, and a surge in divorces further underscore these challenges. In this article, we embark on an erudite exploration within the realm of marital unions to ascertain whether the existing legislative frameworks adequately address the complexities and challenges surrounding contemporary families and effectively accommodate the evolving dynamics.
Examining the Reasons For and Effects of Military Coups in West Africa since 1990: The Obstacles to Democracy and Progress
Authors: Acho Mannjong Callistus , Tacham Follah Placate
Published: November 2023

Purpose: This article sought to understand the reasons for military coups in West Africa Since 1990. With this, we would be able to assess their effects and the obstacles these coups present to democracy in West Africa. It is clear that military takeovers have posed a constant threat to democratic rule in West Africa. There are many different reasons why military coups occur in West Africa, including ethnic conflicts, economic grievances, and corruption. Military leaders have occasionally defended their actions by arguing that they were required to reestablish order and solve perceived shortcomings in civilian authority. This is why it’s necessary to investigate these claims. Coups have wide-ranging effects which include violations of human rights among others, warranting mitigating circumstances.

Methodology: The article uses a qualitative research design. Information on the research came purely from the review of scholarly articles and reports on the topic and it covers the whole of West Africa. The information presented is based on a synthesis of findings from these sources, with a focus on identifying the obstacles to democracy and progress posed by military coups in the region.

Findings: From synthesization of information from other reviews, we discovered that West Africa is one of the most affected parts of Africa as far as military coups are concerned. We equally found out that though not so unique to West Africa, poor governance, political instability, neocolonialism, plays a major in promoting military coups.

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Knowledge acquired from this study would be able to make readers gain specific knowledge on why military coups are frequent in West Africa and to see how such coups can be avoided in other parts of Africa so as to promote democracy and human rights. One unique point included in this research that has been too investigated by many authors is the part played by neocolonialism in coups in West Africa.  From a practical standpoint, the analysis and recommendations would inform policymakers, and stakeholders working on issues related to democracy, governance, and security in West Africa.
DOPRINOS EDWARDA BERNAYSA DAVANJU UPORABNE VRIJEDNOSTI JAVNOMU MIŠLJENJU
Authors: Obradović Đorđe
Published: November 2023

Knjiga Edwarda L. Bernaysa Kristaliziranje javnog mišljenja objavljena 1923. godine opće je prihvaćena kao početak odnosa s javnošću kao znanstvene discipline i suvremenih odnosa s javnošću kao
praktične djelatnosti zasnovane na istraživanjima, analizama, strateškim promišljanjima i planiranjima. Bernays je teorijsku podlogu za svoju knjigu crpio iz spoznaja drugih autora koje je s uvažavanjem citirao. Među njima posebno se ističe autor Walter Lippmann i Javno mnijenje, njegovo
nezaobilazno djelo u komunikacijskim znanostima iz 1922. godine. Analizom diskursa u ovome radu
dokazuje se da je Bernays nadogradio Lippmannove spoznaje ne u teorijskome nego u praktičnome
smislu, dajući im uporabnu vrijednost kroz osmišljavanje područja djelovanja savjetnika za odnose s javnošću. Komparativnom i metodom idealnoga tipa, za koju je poslužilo djelo Zorana Tomića
Enciklopedijski rječnik odnosa s javnošću iz 2023. godine, potvrđeno je da su Bernaysove spoznaje
preživjele sud vremena i da su mnoge aktualne i danas, od pojedinih pojmova i definicija do modela
asimetričnih odnosa s javnošću. Razdoblje od sto godina između Bernaysove i Tomićeve knjige svjedoči o razvitku i stalnome unaprjeđivanju odnosa s javnošću, ali i o opstanku osnovnih načela na
kojima se suvremeni odnosi s javnošću temelje.

Edward Bernays smatrao je da su mediji ključni za oblikovanje javnoga mišljenja i utjecaj na društvo.
Njegovi koncepti i ideje, poput stvaranja javnih događaja i upravljanja percepcijom, ostavili su dubok
utjecaj na suvremeni medijski krajolik. Suvremeni mediji igraju ključnu ulogu u oblikovanju stvarnosti i percepcije javnosti. Bernaysova ideja da se informacije i slike mogu koristiti za oblikovanje
mišljenja ljudi i dalje je relevantna u doba digitalnih medija. U današnjemu društvu mediji imaju
moć oblikovati stvarnost na temelju onoga što prezentiraju javnosti, što čini Bernaysove koncepte i

Spatial water calendar: An illustrative workbook for adaptive transformation
Authors: Bobbink Inge , Ali Naeema , Zúñiga María José
Published: November 2023

In this paper, concepts for deploying climate resilient design in deltaic regions which encounter environmental challenges are explored. Today, most deltas experience persistent flooding and long-term waterlogging which adversely affects the livelihood of its inhabitants. A new approach was formulated to rethink design and planning pedagogies in the discipline of landscape architecture at Delft University of Technology, to visualize open-ended spatial transformations involving both the landscape architect and the inhabitants over longer periods of time. The graduates proposed flexible spatial frameworks that integrate time and people1. This results in design interventions that do not rely on a fixed plan, but rather propose and visualize a process using a ‘water calendar’ as the driving force. The spatial water calendar is a chart that helps to represent time linked to space and water which can be useful to enumerate, elucidate, and determine time-based fluctuations in a landscape and make decisions accordingly. The idea was prompted by ancient calendars that were based on the rhythm of seasons – a method which farmers often used. However, the spatial water calendar also integrates other processes which are influenced by water, focussing specifically on the spatial impact, thereby becoming a design tool for landscape architects. The calendar developed in the Circular Water Stories lab is an open-ended framework stirred by a sequence of spatial drawings showing the temporal and social processes in relation to human-made interventions, resulting in spatial transformations through time and scale. Because working with a calendar is highly participatory in nature, the spatial water calendar will be more meaningful in vulnerable geographies2 where there is still a strong connection between people and landscape. Nevertheless, in other parts of the world, we imagine that this approach also opens new possibilities for landscape architects to engage with dynamic sites.
Tiburzio Spannocchi al servicio de Felipe II. Descripción de las marinas de todo el Reino de Sicilia
Authors: Cabodevilla-Artieda Ignacio , De la Torre Fornés Irene , Baviera López Eduardo
Published: November 2023

Tiburzio Spannocchi, ingeniero militar procedente de una familia noble de Siena, trabajó desde 1572 al servicio de la Corona española, inicialmente en Sicilia y desde 1579 directamente en España, donde realizó el trazado de diversas fortificaciones en la frontera con Francia, particularmente en la banda entre Aragón y Guipúzcoa, Cádiz y el diseño de varios castillos posteriormente construidos en América a partir de sus proyectos. Durante toda su vida profesional mantuvo una gran cercanía con la Corona, siendo nombrado Ingeniero Mayor del Reino en 1601. Podemos dividir toda su ingente producción gráfica en tres grandes grupos, los dibujos de información geográfica, los de análisis del entorno, y los de trazado o reparación de las fortalezas. En el presente artículo, nos centraremos en el análisis de los dibujos realizados para el catálogo de las marinas y puertos sicilianos encargado por Marco Antonio Colonna, virrey de Sicilia, para el que realizó una excelente y detallada descripción de las marinas de la isla, incluyendo datos topográficos y censales acompañados de dibujos del desarrollo costero, las ciudades, los puertos y sus castillos o torres de defensa.

Tecnologias De Uso Coletivo, Interação e Aprendizagem: Reflexões a Partir de Uma Aula de Matemática Com Uso de Projetor
Authors: Freitas de Carvalho Sérgio , De Siqueira Ribas dos Reis Ana Carolina
Published: November 2023

Esse artigo discute movimentos de aprendizagem em uma aula de matemática desenvolvida com uso de um projetor e do software GeoGebra para o estudo de gráficos de funções exponenciais. A discussão foi norteada por uma construção teórica chamada Ciclo de Ações Coletivo, baseada nas ideias de Jose Armando Valente sobre o Ciclo de Ações, e na obra Parangolé de Hélio Oiticica. Buscou-se observar se o Ciclo de Ações Coletivo, inicialmente proposto para se pensar o uso de lousas digitais, poderia contribuir para se pensar e analisar aulas com o uso de projetores. A discussão mostrou que o compartilhamento de tela por meio de um projetor pode oportunizar movimentos de aprendizagens individuais e coletivas a partir da interação entre sujeitos e destes com a tecnologia. Evidenciou-se ainda que as interações que constituem esses movimentos de aprendizagem estão mais associadas às ações do professor e à escolha do software e das atividades.

Urban Movements and Climate Change
Authors: Armiero Marco , Rosa Salvatore Paolo , Turhan Ethemcan
Published: November 2023

From the social uprisings in Santiago de Chile to the radical municipalism experiments in Naples, this volume takes the reader on an intellectual journey at the frontlines across global South and global North where climate breakdown meets social innovations. While the effects of the climate crisis are becoming more extreme and tangible across the globe with every passing day, urban social movements and their radical strategies to resist climate injustice often remain concealed from sight. Contributors to this volume ask how would it be to look at the politics of urban loss-and-damage not from the highly securitized zones of climate summits, but from favelas in Rio de Janeiro, flood-prone communities in São Paulo, urban gardens in Naples, or neighborhoods resisting climate gentrification in New York City? This book explores diverse worlds and praxis of urban social movements resisting the rising tides of climate crisis and social injustice.
Sovereignty as a Vocation in Hobbes’s Leviathan
Authors: Hoye J. Matthew
Published: November 2023

This book is about virtue and statecraft in Thomas Hobbes’s Leviathan. Its overarching argument is that the fundamental foundation of Hobbes’s political philosophy in Leviathan is wise, generous, loving, sincere, just, and valiant—in sum, magnanimous—statecraft, whereby sovereigns aim to realize natural justice, manifest as eminent and other-regarding virtue. I argue that concerns over the virtues of the natural person bearing the office of the sovereign suffuse Hobbes’s political philosophy, defining both his theory of new foundations and his critiques of law and obligation. These aspects of Hobbes’s thought are new to Leviathan, as they respond to limitations in his early works in political theory, Elements and De Cive—limitations made apparent by the civil wars and the regicide of Charles I. Though new, I argue that they tap into ancient political and philosophical ideas, foremostly the variously celebrated, mystified, and maligned figure of the orator founder.
Investigating the Mathematics Teachers’ Pedagogical Content Knowledge in Teaching Algebraic Symbols
Authors: Rupasinghe D. D.
Published: November 2023

Secondary level mathematics teachers’ pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) in teaching algebra is identified as a crucial factor of mathematics teachers’ knowledge that influences on the accuracy of the students’ understanding. The aim of this study is to examine the extent of the mathematics teachers’ PCK in teaching basic algebraic concepts, algebraic symbols. Necessity of learning algebra for advanced conceptualization is asserted by the global literature. Researchers found that the mathematics teachers’ PCK in teaching algebra is not satisfactory. Equally, students’ learning difficulties and their struggle in learning algebra can be identified as a global issue. The sample (N=281) mathematics teachers in the Galle education zone were administered with a questionnaire. The mean value was 6.81 and the standard deviation was 2.74. The study found that the mathematics teachers’ PCK in teaching algebraic symbols is very poor in Sri Lanka. Moreover, the mathematics teachers use inadequate algebraic thinking in the teaching practicum that can restrict the students’ creativity. Students’ understanding in algebraic symbols at the acquisition stage of learning algebra should essentially be developed through well designed professional development programs.

The authors assessed and evaluated how the first GBP 1 million of Scottish government funding was disseminated and used, in the form of small grants for locally led action, and how this can inform the operationalization of both the L&D fund and L&D finance more broadly, in time for discussions at the 28th UN Climate Change Conference of Parties (COP28) on climate change. Vulnerable countries and communities already face losses and damages as a result of climate change, and they urgently need financial support to enable recovery from trauma and lost homes, lives and livelihoods. At the 26th UN Climate Change Conference of Parties in Glasgow (COP26), Scotland made history as the first Global North country to pledge bilateral finance specifically for addressing climate-related loss and damage (L&D). This report gathers 16 lessons under six overarching themes, from the dissemination of L&D funding through the Climate Justice Resilience Fund (CJRF). Included are recommendations for L&D finance, as well as for climate negotiators who will discuss how the new L&D Fund will be operationalized at COP28, beginning at the end of November in Dubai. These findings shed light on the benefits and limitations of small grants for locally led action, what trade-offs might manifest when implementing locally led approaches, and how L&D finance can be used in a manner that can reach and serve vulnerable and affected groups.

İnsansız hava araçları (İHA) ilk geliştirildiği yıllarda, nispeten az sayıda bileşenden oluşmuştur. Son yıllarda ise teknolojinin gelişmesiyle birlikte birçok mekanik, elektro-mekanik ve elektronik bileşenden meydana gelmektedir. Bu bileşenlerin, özellikle mekanik ve yapısal elemanların üretimi çeşitli teknikler ile yapılmakta ve çoğu zaman maliyetli olmaktadır. İHA üretiminde yaygın olarak kullanılan ve konvansiyonel üretim tekniklerinden olan kalıp enjeksiyon veya talaşlı imalat, zaman ve maliyet açısından giderleri arttırabilmektedir. Son yıllarda oldukça gelişen 3 boyutlu (3B) yazıcı teknolojisi, İHA bileşenlerinin üretiminde kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. 3B yazıcı teknolojilerinde kullanılan baskı malzemeleri, termoplastik ve türevleridir. Bu malzemeler geleneksel üretimde yaygınlıkla kullanılan metallere kıyasla çok daha hafif ve işlenmesi kolaydır. 3B yazıcılar sadece İHA bileşenlerinin basımında değil aynı zamanda İHA görüntüleri ile elde edilen 3B modellerin ölçekli şekilde baskısının elde edilmesinde de kullanılmaktadır. Lireratürde, özellikle kültürel miras ve arkeolojik çalışmalar başta olmak üzere, mühendislik uygulamalarında ve doğal afetlerin izlenmesinde önemli sonuçlar elde edildiği çalışmalar bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışma kapsamında 3B yazıcıların, İHA bileşenlerinin üretiminde ve İHA kullanılarak elde edilen görüntü çıktılarında kullanımı irdelenmiş, ilgili literatür çalışmalarına yer verilmiştir. Son olarak gelecekteki beklentiler sıralanmıştır.

Authors: Safitri Citra Dwi , Jabu Baso , Samtidar Samtidar
Published: November 2023

Studies on the integration of moral, cultural, and religious values in the non-religion subject have been greatly raised in these recent years. This research aims to find out the teachers’ strategy and challenges encountered in integrating Islamic values in English language teaching. The descriptive method with a qualitative approach is employed in this research. The subject of this research consists of three English teachers who teach in different grades from seventh to ninth at SMP Pesantren Modern IMMIM Putra Makassar. The data of this research are obtained from the observation sheet and interview guide. The data analysis technique in this research uses three steps, namely identification, classification, and explanation. The result of this research shows that there are four strategies employed by English teachers in integrating Islamic values in ELT. First, the teachers give direct advice to the students. Second, the teachers associate the lesson topic with pertinent Islamic teaching by quoting verses from the Qur’an and/or Hadith. Third, the teachers get the students used to worship through the habituation of religious activities. Fourth, the teachers refer to someone, or themselves to introduce some Islamic values to the students. The teachers also encounter several challenges in integrating Islamic values in ELT. First, the limited availability of English textbooks integrated to Islamic values. Second, the teachers have limited knowledge of how to optimally integrate Islamic values into the teaching and learning process. Third, the teachers have a limited time to provide and prepare the English learning materials associated to Islamic values. Further studies such as research and development of English textbooks that integrated to Islamic values for high school students are expected to be conducted in an attempt to solve the teachers’ challenges revealed in this research.
ANALYSIS AND CLASSIFICATION OF LEGAL ACTS ENSURING THE SAFETY OF TOURISM
Authors:   Tashkent State University of Law, Tursunova Sabina
Published: November 2023

Ecology and environmental protection is an important task all over the world, especially in Uzbekistan. One of the most important issues of recent years is the attraction of private investment in solving the environmental problems of Uzbekistan. For this, the use of public-private partnership mechanisms is considered as the most promising tool in the world. In turn, the effective use of this institution in the field of environmental protection largely depends on the effectiveness of its legal regulation. At the same time, the current norms of the legislation of Uzbekistan do not yet meet this condition. Because there is no special rule governing public-private partnerships in the field of ecology. Also, the current legal documents contain norms that restrict the use for one reason or another for environmental purposes. To determine the optimal model of legal regulation of public-private partnership in the field of environmental protection in the Republic of Uzbekistan, it is first necessary to study the experience of such legal regulation in foreign countries. This article is devoted to the study of this issue. The article analyzes the opinions of scientists and the experience of foreign countries regarding the use of public-private partnerships in the field of ecology. Based on the results of the study, the author concluded that the use of public-private partnerships in this area will save the state budget, introduce an effective management system in the field, and improve the quality of services provided.

Each draft act of legislation developed by the competent state bodies serves to legally regulate a certain area of social relations after its adoption. At the same time, drafts of legislative documents will be submitted to the Government and the Presidential Administration only if there is a conclusion of the Ministry of Justice on the expediency of their adoption at the end of the legal examination. The article discusses the legal and anti-corruption expertise of draft normative legal acts, their regulatory impact assessment, the status of public discussion of draft legislations, and the procedure for state registration of departmental normative legal acts. Adoption of projects of normative legal documents, which are not based on calculations, the impact on the relevant sectors has not been assessed, and the risks of execution have not been analyzed, not only cause the state budget but also unjustified and excessive financial losses of the population and business entities. In addition, this article describes the process of creating norms that are currently in practice. Furthermore, problems and their solutions were thoroughly analyzed, and recommendations were made to eliminate these problems.

"The article examines the legislation and practice of Uzbekistan, international standards, and foreign experience in studying public opinion. The purpose of the study is to improve the legal basis of this process and eliminate existing shortcomings. During the study of national legislation, it was established that the concept of “studying public opinion” needs to be improved, the procedure for its implementation has not been developed, the forms and means of its implementation are accordingly absent from scientific circulation and have not been applied according to their meaning, and other problems have been identified. Views, practices, and regulations about public opinion and its study were studied through analysis, functional, structural, comparative, formal, legal, and other methods. As a result, the content of public opinion and its study were revealed, and the definition in national legislation of the general rules of this process was justified, including the need to determine the information that should be published to assess the quality and impartiality of the results of the study and the need to prohibit their publication during a referendum and on the day before it starts. The author put forward a proposal to entrust the Association of Sociologists of Uzbekistan and the Central Election Commission with the development of methodological recommendations for the study of public opinion and control over the implementation of these recommendations and legal norms in this area with the election commissions."

Published: November 2023

O presente estudo tem por objetivo apresentar os problemas relacionados ao uso do reconhecimento fotográfico no processo penal, que tem como objetivo apontar determinado individuo como “suspeito” de algum crime praticado, o estudo busca analisar de que forma o racismo sistémico influência nas condenações fundada pelo uso do reconhecimento fotográfico, uma vez que , estudos mostram um alto indicide de apontamento das pessoas negras como vitimas deste reconhecimento. A designação do tema consiste em verificar como o racismo sistémico em conjunto com o reconhecimento fotográfico, tornou possível o encarceramento em massa de pessoas majoritariamente negras, que foram preivadas de sua liberdade e do seu devido processo legal. O estudo vai além, apresentando o conceito de racismo sistémico firmardo no Brasil desde sua colonização e abordando casos de pessoas que foram vítimas desse reconhecimento.
AVALIAÇÃO E DIMENSIONAMENTO HIDRÁULICO DE UM SISTEMA DE ABASTECIMENTO DE ÁGUA EM ZONA RURAL

Published: November 2023

A água é uma substância natural utilizado para todas as necessidades básicas e ações correlacionadas ao desenvolvimento das populações, sendo essas comprometidas facilmente com a sua escassez, desde os tempos mais antigos e mais antigas civilizações, perante a isso, surge os sistemas de abastecimento de água que possuem o intuito de distribuir a água dentro dos parâmetros de qualidade, com vazão e pressões adequadas. Sendo de extrema notoriedade o desenvolvimento deste sistema e todos os seus elementos constituintes segundo as normas, para a garantia de sua eficiência, principalmente para comunidades rurais onde seus municípios não lhe garantem esse serviço básico conforme estipulado pela lei, obrigando-os a tomar iniciativas como a criação de associações para o controle de seus sistemas. Este trabalho aprofundou conhecimentos sobre abastecimento de água, analisou e diagnosticou a eficácia de um sistema de abastecimento rural, principalmente na sua qualidade de água, reservação e rede de distribuição, juntamente com a realização do dimensionamento de um novo sistema de abastecimento. Para suprir as demandas dos pontos de consumo, com pressões e vazões adequadas. Para as análises de custo das alternativas propostas para a solução dos problemas, utilizou-se como base de preços a tabela SINAPI (sistema nacional de pesquisa de custos e índices da consstrução civil). Foi levantado a questão de problemas na reservação de capacidade de armazenamento para atender a população, a rede de distribuição é formada por quatro redes independentes e determinou-se os valores de perda de carga, velocidades e pressões para cada uma delas. Propondo três alternativas para a otimização do sistema, sendo a primeira a substituição das tubulações conforme os diâmetros estabelecidos pela normativa, a segunda a interligação das redes de distribuição e na terceira a instalação de válvulas redutoras de pressão e bombas, mostrou ser essa a correta, pois veio ser a melhor solução técnica e econômica.
Agresivamente tecnológicos: orígenes del cyberpunk y manifestación en la literatura, el cómic y el cine
Authors: Maíllo Baz Diego
Published: November 2023

En este artículo, se ha procurado representar el cyberpunk como un cruce de las preocupaciones medioambientales que se dieron en una época de la ciencia ficción conocida como new wave, y la ansiedad con respecto al futuro de la contracultura punk. Además, se ha tratado de destacar la plena actualidad de dicho subgénero de la ciencia ficción, pues sus proyecciones anticipaban muchos de los dilemas éticos y las inquietudes teóricas que existen hoy en día acerca de temas como la introducción de la tecnología en nuestro cuerpo, la creciente brecha entre las clases sociales, y la dicotomía entre el urbanismo y la naturaleza. Finalmente, otro de los objetivos ha sido el de plasmar el cyberpunk como un género temático y estilístico que se ha expresado en prácticamente todas las áreas artísticas, destacando para esta ocasión su despliegue en la literatura, el cómic y el cine.
Ser buen docente en tiempos de cambio: el ejemplo de Macedonia (del Norte)
Authors: Atanasoska Tatjana
Published: November 2023

Este artículo presenta resultados sobre la situación del profesorado en el sistema de enseñanza de Macedonia del Norte, un país reciente; ha existido sólo durante 30 años como Estado-nación legislativamente. Existe un enorme vacío de investigación con respecto a Macedonia (del Norte) en muchos aspectos. Como en otros países europeos, el sistema escolar se transforma gracias al desarrollo del neoliberalismo, pero también a los numerosos cambios que se produjeron tras el fin de Yugoslavia. Como la política tiene un fuerte efecto en la escolarización dentro de sistemas burocráticos, es importante observar la situación actual, en el Estado nacional moderno, en comparación con la situación anterior, como región de la RFSY (República Social Federal de Yugoslavia). Para investigar el papel de los docentes en la implementación de políticas educativas, se entrevistó a docentes que habían estudiado (y trabajado) en la época de la Macedonia yugoslava. Los datos cualitativos se analizaron mediante análisis de contenido. Las recientes transformaciones a través de cambios en la Nueva Gestión Pública y por presiones globales sobre la educación se hacen visibles. Particularmente visibles son la erosión de la confianza y un reconocimiento social cada vez menor de la profesión docente.

Abstract. Earthquakes are one of the most frequently occurring natural disasters. Many indications have been collected on the presence of seismo-ionospheric perturbations preceding such tragic phenomena. Radio techniques are the essential tools leading the detection of seismo-electromagnetic emissions by monitoring at very low-frequency (VLF, 3–30 kHz) and low-frequency (LF, 30–300 kHz) sub-ionospheric paths between transmitters and receivers (Hayakawa, 2015). In this brief communication, we present the implementation of a VLF/LF network to search for earthquake electromagnetic precursors. The proposed system is comprised of a monopole antenna including a preamplifier, a GPS receiver and a recording device. This system will deliver a steady stream of real-time amplitude and phase measurements as well as a daily recording VLF/LF data set. The first implementation of the system was done in Graz, Austria. The second one will be in Guyancourt (France), with a third one in Réunion (France) and a fourth one in Moratuwa (Sri Lanka). In the near future, we are planning to expand our network for enhanced monitoring and increased coverage.
Transmedya Ortamında Ex-Libris Sanatı Var Olabilir mi ?
Authors: TOPRAK Onur
Published: November 2023

Ex-libris has been constantly evolving, especially in the last decade. New technologies, new and constantly developing forms of communication, and audiovisual design have contributed to the transformation of different modes of expression, enriching the visual, narrative, and linguistic features through which people interact and build connections. These modes of representation include e-books, hypertexts, virtual game worlds, etc. We can multiply it with examples like this. This unique combination of textual, visual, and linguistic elements offers readers new ways to experience and live one or more stories, while at the same time offering designers a vast and extremely difficult field of representation and interpretation. This converts your printed manual into a digital copy with images and audio, the reader-player's choice of hero or villain, etc. It becomes a virtual world where it becomes a person and creates its own story, with narration and dialogues simultaneous with the action. In this way, the variability, interaction, and open-mindedness of these different domains can produce variable patterns of place and time, changing the initial chronotropy of the ex-libris several times.
