Published: June 2022

Environmental protection education in Indonesia must get the attention of all parties, especially the government and its staff, because healthy environmental resources must be pursued, not surrendered, let alone let them be damaged and extinct. For this reason, it takes the government's seriousness as the maker and implementer of policy regulations through education on environmental protection that is healthy and free from irresponsible human intervention. For this purpose, we have reviewed more than a hundred international publications that have discussed environmental safety issues through application to school education in various contexts to become a model for application in Madrasah schools in Indonesia. We reviewed papers published between 2010 and 2021 as sources of scientific data and other research sources to prove this assumption. We chose a systematic review method to understand the main problem through coding systems, data evaluation, in-depth analysis, and interpretation before obtaining findings to answer environmental research problems, education, and realities of practice in the field. Based on the data found and the discussion results, we understand the relevance between government policies on government regulations and the content and behavior taught in madrasas and industry on attitudes and behavior and sanctions on the preservation and sustainability of environmental protection.
Individual Differences in Developmental Psychology Early Childhood Mentality
Authors: Cahya Dewi Novi
Published: June 2022

As long as human life is never static, from birth to death, humans always experience changes; these changes are known as two kinds of changes: growth, which is increasing size and structure, and second, a development which means progressive, coherent, and orderly changes. Differences influence individual differences in early childhood mental development psychology in cognitive, language skills, motor skills, backgrounds, talents, and learning readiness. Parents who directly educate and shape children's social behavior early tend to continue to survive until the child reaches the next stage of development. Individual attitudes toward others and towards social activities are consistent at every age level. Individual development is a functional change that is qualitative, both from physical and mental functions, as a result of its association with environmental influences. Individual development is indicated by changes that are systematic, progressive, and continuous.

Published: June 2022

Yüzyıllarca süren ciddi bir tarihsel çalışmanın ardından, günümüzde eğitimli insanların bile büyük çoğunluğunun hala Orta Çağ’ı, insanların tuhaf ve fantastik anlayışlarla yönetildiği bir dönem olarak gördüğünü söylemek muhtemelen doğru olacaktır. Orta Çağ hakkında gerçek bilgi arayışının daha çok Rönesans ve Yeni Öğrenme’nin aptal ve cahil belirsizliğiyle mi yoksa Romantik hareketin anlamsız coşkusuyla mı engellendiği gerçek bir şüphe konusudur. Rönesans, ortaçağ uygarlığını basitçe barbar ve irrasyonel olarak ele alırken, Romantik hareket ise, on dördüncü ve on beşinci yüzyıllarda grotesk şövalyelik düzenleriyle ilk Gotik canlanmanın gülünç oyununu gerçek ortaçağ dünyasıymış gibi algıladı. Hiç şüphesiz, ortaçağ yaşamının uygulanamaz bulunan ve modern dünya uygarlığının gerçek gelişimi ile uyumlu hale getirilemeyecek yönlerine her zaman gereken ağırlığı vermek zorunda kalacağız ancak bunların aşırı vurgulandığına ve bizlerin Orta Çağ’ın bazı uygulanamaz fikirlerini, çağın arkasındaki gerçek ve yönetici ilkelerle karıştırma eğiliminde olduğumuza inanıyorum.

Introduction

Published: June 2022

With Vladimir Putin’s brutal invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and the new coalition government’s resulting reorientation of German foreign and security policy—an epochal shift that jettisoned 30, even 50 years of policy the world immediately changed. The consequences and spillover effects of this paradigm shift or Zeitenwende will take years to become truly apparent and will rightfully seize the attention of academics, pundits, and policy analysts. Nevertheless, we should also not neglect other events from the recent past, namely, the most important election in the world in 2021. The September election for the German Bundestag was the most eventful, surprising, and momentous in that country for almost two decades, with an outcome that has already greatly affected Germany, Europe, and the world. It was also a novel election and outcome in several ways: it was the first election since 1953 without an incumbent chancellor running for re-election, and it resulted in the first three-party coalition government in over half a century.
Continuing Formalization of Coalition Formation with a New “Sound”
Authors: Siefken Sven T.
Published: June 2022

Getting a new government together in Germany requires building a coalition. The process for doing so has evolved, becoming more institutionalized but remaining part of informal politics. Looking closely at the coalition building in 2021 shows that its organizational structure was vertically slimmer and horizontally more differentiated than in previous years. The role of parliamentary actors was more pronounced than before, and parliamentary organization was mirrored throughout it. Yet the strong inclusion of the Länder (party) perspectives prevailed, making coalition building a multi-level task. While the process in 2021 had more procedural transparency than before, its content remained largely out of public sight. At defined steps, party approval was gathered through formal votes. Whether the established account of better personal trust among the involved partners is more than a nice narrative remains to be seen in the analysis of the coalition’s governing practice.

Coumarins are heterocyclic compounds naturally found in plants. Coumarin-derived compounds have been commonly synthesized and some have exhibited a wide range of bioactivities. In searching for coumarins-based antioxidants and antibacterial, in this study, various 4-methyl coumarins have been synthesized by reacting ethyl acetoacetate with several phenol compounds, e.g. resorcinol, catechol, hydroquinone, α-naphthol, and β-naphthol, catalyzed by multiple Lewis acids, e.g. SnCl2, SnCl2.2H2O, ZnCl2, and AlCl3, using microwave irradiation via the Pechmann condensation. The antioxidant activities of synthesized compounds were tested using the DPPH method, while the antibacterial activities were measured using the disc diffusion method. Of the five phenol and four Lewis acid variations, only resorcinol catalyzed by SnCl2.2H2O and AlCl3 produced the targeted coumarin, 7-hydroxy-4-methyl coumarin, in a pure compound. The synthesized compound was obtained with an optimum yield of 55.25% by reacting resorcinol/ethyl acetoacetate 1:1 (mol/mol) and 10 mol% SnCl2.2H2O for 260 s reaction time under solvent-free conditions. This compound was identified by TLC, melting point apparatus, and then further characterized using FTIR, UV-Vis, and NMR instruments. The antioxidant activity of 7-hydroxy-4-methyl coumarin showed moderately active towards DPPH with an IC50 value of 99.69 ppm. This compound also displayed moderate activity against E. coli with 9 mm of inhibition zone in 125 ppm. However, 7-hydroxy-4-methyl coumarin was inactive against S. aureus at all tested concentrations. This study reveals that various phenols and Lewis acids can affect coumarins-based antioxidant and antibacterial synthesis.

Published: June 2022

The SAR-CoV-2 virus infection quickly spreads to almost all countries in the world, and the number of sufferers is rapidly increasing. Therefore, it is necessary to prevent its spread by increasing immunity by consuming the right intake. Immunity can be increased by taking a multivitamin or supplementary food derived from nutritious plants. Some plant-based intake has antiviral properties, such as virgin coconut oil (VCO) produced from coconut (Cocos nucifera) and white bottom (Allium sativum L.). VCO and garlic oil are also known as antiviral oils, which are also expected to against SARS-CoV-2. This paper reveals a review of the potential of VCO and garlic oil against the SARS-CoV-2 virus. VCO contains lauric acid compounds and their derivatives, monolaurin, which can inhibit viral growth. Monolaurin reduced the infectivity of 14 human RNA and DNA-coated viruses in cell culture by > 99.9% and acted by destroying the viral envelope. Additionally, monolaurin can inhibit the final maturation stage in the viral replication cycle and prevent the binding of viral M protein to the host cell membrane. Likewise, garlic has acillin compounds to prevent viral activity in organs by inhibiting human body compounds that interact with the SAR-CoV02 virus, namely, ACE2. The ACE2 protein is a host cell receptor with a similar function that SARS-CoV-2 and SARS have. The highly organosulfur compounds contained in garlic are expected to interact strongly with the amino acids of the ACE2 protein. If the ACE2 protein is inhibited, the coronavirus is prevented and treated.

Published: June 2022

Nickel Slag (NS) is a byproduct generated from nickel ore processing, which mainly contains silica and alumina. This study has developed an adsorbent of dithizone-immobilized nickel slag (NSD) for Ag(I) removal in batch mode. Characterization of the adsorbent was carried out using SEM-EDX, XRD, FTIR, and DSC/TGA to confirm dithizone immobilization on the surface of activated nickel slag (NSA). The optimum condition for Ag(I) ion adsorption was achieved at pH 5 with a contact time of 90 minutes. The adsorption capacity of NSD towards Ag(I) was better than that of NSA. The adsorption kinetics of Ag(I) complied with the pseudo-second-order reaction, while the adsorption isotherms followed Langmuir isotherm models. Sequential desorption results indicated that Ag(I) adsorption in NSD was dominated by hydrogen bond interactions and complexation.

Published: June 2022

Tensile properties of strain-hardening fiber-reinforced concrete are the key engineering parameters in determining bending resistance of the material. In this paper, an analytical model to predict tensile properties of ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC), a type of strain-hardening fiber-reinforced concretes, was performed based on single fiber pullout test. The studied UHPFRCs contained hybrid fiber system, including macro steel fiber combined with micro steel fiber. Three types of macro steel fibers were used, including long smooth fiber (LS), hooked A fiber (HA), and hooked B fiber (HB); they had different lengths and geometries but same volume content (1.0 %). The only short smooth fiber (SS), one type of micro steel fiber,was employed with various volume content (0.5 %, 1.0 %, 1.5 %). The experimental data from the fiber pullout tests in the available references were used to predict the first crack/post crack strength and cracking parameters of UHPFRCs with hybrid fibers. The predictive equations for strengths and crack resistance of UHPFRC containing hybrid fibers were proposed with modified coefficients.

Due to the rapid status of the nanomaterials synthesis development and their prospects of embodying in any sphere of the human being activity, the question about obtaining of new materials, which would not have the detrimental effects on the environment and people’s health, and for which it would be easy to tune their optical properties, is brought up. Quantum dots AgInS2/ZnS correspond to these aforementioned requirements, that’s why this article is concerned about the investigation of the AgInS2/ZnS optical properties (absorption and photoluminescence spectra) and applying the mathematical planning methods for forecasting the photoluminescence peak position of quantum dots depending on the initial precursors ration. For this purpose, three mathematical models of the different orders were derived: incomplete third, complete third and fourth. In order to figure out the opportunity of applying these polynoms, the adequacy of each model was measured using the Student’s test, which showed that for the theoretical application of the photoluminescence peak position of AgInS2/ZnS quantum dots, synthesized with the different initial ration of silver, indium and sulfur precursors, it makes sense to utilize the regression equation of the fourth order for which the adequacy calculated using the Student’s criterion lies in the range from 0,19 to 1,07 for the 5 % level of the statistical significance.
The Importance of Sports Management Consulting
Authors: Nastas N. , Lungu E.
Published: June 2022

Sport is characterized by a series of moments such as commitment, struggle, competition, joy, and satisfaction, representing the sphere of relations with one's neighbor both as a partner and as an opponent, face to face with one's own limits: the management of the sports sector must be based on these and other values. The sports system is characterized by a strong human and relational component and by a close link between environment and organization. In this context, compliance with the rules becomes the cornerstone of a sports management approach that aims to promote the education of the individual. The sports management strategy should at the same time include respect for others, therefore attention and care among all subjects, offering the possibility of welcoming the diversity of actors. These dynamics must be our drivers to outline a sports management strategy capable of developing and consolidating some of the main pedagogical values in the individual, stimulating an educational path that will benefit the entire community.

Published: June 2022

The present study is experimental research, conducted on children aged 6-7 years, included in preparatory classes, based on the learning and implementation of the theoretical and practical information with the help of “live demonstration” and “iconographic demonstration”, therefore relying on imitation. In Physical Education, the quickest and easiest way for children to learn is through imitation. The analysis of the results showed that in the experimental group the use of the “live demonstration" leads to a greater increase in the number of pupils who can memorise and perform more related items than in the control group, which used the iconographic demonstration.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether or not there is an influence of a principal's leadership and work discipline on the performance of a teacher at SMP Negeri 8 Padang. This research includes qualitative research in the form of case studies. Those appointed as resource persons are teachers and school principals, whose data is taken by conducting observations, interviews, and documentation. The results obtained from this study are 1) The principal's leadership style acts in teacher performance. The effectiveness of a principal's leadership style can motivate teacher performance in schools, 2) Work discipline plays an important role for teacher performance, because whether or not the teacher's discipline attitude will make teachers have the will to comply with the rules that have been made by the school, and 3 ) Teacher performance and work discipline can increase if the leadership style of a school principal is effective. So the interaction between the principal's leadership style and work discipline affects the performance of teachers in schools.
Selected Tax Problems of Administrative Enforcement of Taxes and Local Fees
Authors: Bogacki Sylwester , Martyniuk Volodymyr
Published: June 2022

Article 13 of the Tax Ordinance lists the tax authorities. In the case of local government units, the tax authority is the head of the local authority, the mayor, the head of the district authority and the head of the voivodship, as the authority of first instance, and the local government board of appeals, as the authority to appeal against the decision of the head of the local authority, the mayor. The provision of Article 13 of the Tax Ordinance is imprecise with respect to the jurisdiction of instances because it regulates the jurisdiction of the appellate authorities only with respect to decisions, leaving aside the issue of provisions. In practice, however, there is no doubt that the body appealing against decisions is also the body appealing against provisions.

The article analyses the problem of the offence of religious discrimination under Article 194 of the Polish Penal Code. The author presented in the first part of the article the process of  formation of “crimes against freedom of conscience and religion” in the criminal codes of 1932, 1969 and 1997, then discussed the object of protection related to the offence of “religious discrimination” in the light of Article 192 of the Penal Code of 1969. From this perspective, she analysed the object of protection, offender, objective aspects and subjective aspects of the applicable Article 194 of the Polish Penal Code of 1997.
Systems of Executing the Penalty of Imprisonment Pursuant to Article 81 of the Executive Penal Code of 1997
Authors: Kuć Małgorzata
Published: June 2022

This article characterises the systems of executing the penalty of imprisonment as stipulated in Article 81 of the Executive Penal Code of 1997. The article examines the differences in the systems of executing the penalty of imprisonment in relation to the categories of convicts to whom individual systems are addressed and in relation to the principles used to select correctional measures. The diversity of the systems of executing the penalty of imprisonment corresponds to the principle of individualisation in dealing with convicts, which meets the needs related to the execution of the penalty of imprisonment.
Admissibility of Revocation by a Party of Their Declaration to Waive the Right to Appeal
Authors: Smarż Joanna
Published: June 2022

The Code of Administrative Procedure was substantially amended in 2017. Introduction of the right to waive the right to appeal to Article 127a, Code of Administrative Procedure, is one such major change. Such a waiver is momentous, since it not only obstructs appealing but also prevents the option of complaining against a decision to courts. The new regulation, intended to accelerate administrative proceedings and enforceability of decisions, gives rise to serious doubts, chiefly concerning a party’s option of withdrawing their declaration to waive the right to appeal. In spite of the legislator’s intention signalled in the substantiation of the amendment, both judicial decisions and the doctrine rightly accept the possibility of withdrawing a declaration to waive the right to appeal until the last day of the term for appeals.
Stability Function of Bilateral Agreements Concluded Between the State and Churches and Religious Communities in Slovakia in the Field of Guaranteeing Freedom of Religion and Freedom of Conscience
Authors: Šmid Marek
Published: June 2022

By concluding treaties on respect for the principles in the Slovak legal system with the Holy See, as well as registered churches and religious communities in Slovakia, the purpose of Article 10(2) of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union (in force as EU law since 2009), according to which the protection of conscience is regulated by the Member States in their domestic legal systems (in addition, they include an international treaty or an equivalent legal norm, which is in the Slovak legal environment applies to national agreements) is described in the contribution. The new contractual concept of an agreement with the Holy See on conscientious objections is in accordance with the explanatory memorandum to this provision of the Charter and corresponds to the constitutional traditions and the development of law in the field of protection of freedom of conscience and religion in Slovakia. In its essence, in addition to compatibility with the law of the European Union, as well as the constitutional law of the Slovak Republic, it is a significant stabilizing element in the legal order of Slovakia.

Published: June 2022

With the date of liquidation of the Polish local government and the reform of the state budget system, financial supply system of parishes is based on completely different assumptions and the principle of legal and organic unity of the system of public revenues. The different types of income which influence the budgets of national councils and their design are determined uniformly for the whole country by the supreme bodies of state power. Under this system, introduced among other taxes collected for the central budget, and so central taxes and taxes levied for local budgets, which are spontaneous taxes terrain. The disputed interpretation issues arise in the subject of adopting the collection of the spa fee and the tourist (called “local”) fee, due to similarities in the construction of these fees and the optional nature of recovery. The interpretation problems arise in the matter of principles, way and purposefulness of destination of the spa fee by the resort communes for the realization of their own public tasks.

BACKGROUND: COVID-19 is a highly contagious virus that is rapidly spreading across the world. As the number of COVID-19 patients is quickly rising, and certain nations and areas, such as the third world countries, lack the medical resources, it is critical to track and monitor a patient’s status using blood parameters on regular testing. The aim of this study is to compare the serum D-dimer levels, Ferritin, CRP, WBCs, Lymphocytes, and Neutrophils in male and female patients infected with COVID-19. OBJECTIVE AND METHODS: The study procedure includes evaluating the D-dimer level, Ferritin, CRP, WBCs, lymphocytes, and neutrophils in 116 patients infected with COVID-19 (48 Females and 68 Males). RESULT: The result of this study shows a significant increase in the D-dimer level in males 1618 ± 247.7 ng/ml compared to females 684.5 ± 53.69 ng/ml and a significant increase in Ferritin level in males 525.6 ± 69.55 μg/L compared to females 254.1 ± 33.73 μg/L. However, no other significant change is seen in the other parameters (CRP, LDH, and WBCs, L, and N) although all of these parameters are abnormal, compared to the normal reference values. CONCLUSION: This study concludes that there is a significant increase in the D-dimer and Ferritin concentrations in male patients compared to female patients, who were infected with COVID-19. Also there are no significant differences in other parameters (CRP, LDH, WBCs, L, and N) between male and female patients.
Blending a sweet pill to swallow with TRIZ and industry talks for enhanced learning during the COVID-19 pandemic
Authors: Ng Poh Kiat , Koo Voon Chet , Ng Yu Jin , Yeow Jian Ai
Published: June 2022

BACKGROUND: While studies have investigated relationships among learning motivation, social presence, and cognitive presence, there appear to be no studies on the inclusion of industry talks and the theory of inventive problem-solving (TRIZ) in strengthening engineering students’ learning motivation, social presence, and cognitive presence within a blended learning setting. OBJECTIVE: This study investigated the influence of industry talks and TRIZ on learning motivation, social presence, and cognitive presence in a blended learning environment. METHODS: Data samples were obtained from 98 engineering students in a blended learning course and analysed using Spearman’s correlation test, regression, ANOVA, and t-test. RESULTS: Findings suggested that TRIZ and industry talks strongly, positively, and significantly correlated with learning motivation, social presence, and cognitive presence. A well-rounded learning experience compounded of TRIZ and industry talks significantly affected learning motivation, social presence, and cognitive presence, thereby enhancing students’ programme outcome (PO) achievement. CONCLUSIONS: These findings can be attributed to the students’ independent learning capabilities with TRIZ and industry talks. Analogically, embracing TRIZ and industry talks helps turn blended learning into a “sweet instead of bitter pill to swallow” for engineering students in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The pandemic COVID-19 is already in its third year and there is no sign of ebbing. The world continues to be in a never-ending cycle of disease outbreaks. Since the introduction of Omicron-the most mutated and transmissible of the five variants of COVID-19 – fear and instability have grown. Many papers have been written on this topic, as early detection of COVID-19 infection is crucial. Most studies have used X-rays and CT images as these are highly sensitive to detect early lung changes. However, for privacy reasons, large databases of these images are not publicly available, making it difficult to obtain very accurate AI Deep Learning models. To address this shortcoming, transfer learning (pre-trained) models are used. The current study aims to provide a thorough comparison of known AI Deep Transfer Learning models for classifying lung radiographs into COVID-19, non COVID pneumonia and normal (healthy). The VGG-19, Inception-ResNet, EfficientNet-B0, ResNet-50, Xception and Inception models were trained and tested on 3568 radiographs. The performance of the models was evaluated using accuracy, sensitivity, precision and F1 score. High detection accuracy scores of 98% and 97% were found for the VGG-19 and Inception-ResNet models, respectively.

Background:

This memory-clinic study joins efforts to study earliest clinical signs and symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias: subjective reports and objective neuropsychological test performance.

Objective:

The memory-clinic denoted two clinical “grey zones”: 1) subjective cognitive decline (SCD; n = 107) with normal objective test scores, and 2) isolated low test scores (ILTS; n = 74) without subjective complaints to observe risk for future decline.

Methods:

Initial and annual follow-up clinical research evaluations and consensus diagnosis were used to evaluate baseline characteristics and clinical progression over 2.7 years, compared to normal controls (NC; n = 117).

Results:

The ILTS group was on average older than the NC and SCD groups. They had a higher proportion of people identifying as belonging to a minoritized racial group. The SCD group had significantly more years of education than the ILTS group. Both ILTS and SCD groups had increased risk of progression to mild cognitive impairment. Older age, minoritized racial identity, and baseline cognitive classification were risk factors for progression.

Conclusion:

The two baseline risk groups look different from each other, especially with respect to demographic correlates, but both groups predict faster progression than controls, over and above demographic differences. Varied presentations of early risk are important to recognize and may advance cognitive health equity in aging.
