Published: March 2021

Tambora area is the most populous area in Jakarta, the majority of the population is middle-low. This is indicated by the majority of the houses in this area classified as small to medium and the quality of life in Tambora. In the midst of this dense area there is no open area which is a place for them to interact among themselves.This causes many of the peoples spent their spare time out of their house to interact and socialize with others, but it makes traffic jam and noises. This problem will be answered with architectural products in the form of a container that becomes a place for them to interact and carry out  various activities without distinguishing any groups and open to the public free of charge. In this building, a number of programs will be included such as exhibitions, recycling classes, food and other entertainment areas, which are determined based on the characteristics of the Tambora region.This building also has commercial area like souvenier and material store. This project is designed based on John Zeisel's re-image design method, analysis and personal research that focuses on the function and mass of the building in order to have a positive impact on the environment of the Tambora Area. Keywords: Exhibition; Open area; RecycleAbstrakKawasan Tambora merupakan kawasan terpadat di Jakarta, yang mayoritas penduduknya menengah kebawah.Hal ini ditunjukan dengan sebagian besar rumah-rumah yang ada dikawasan ini tergolong kecil ke sedang dan juga kualitas kehidupan masyarakat di Tambora . Ditengah padatnya wilayah ini tidak ada area terbuka yang menjadi wadah bagi mereka untuk berinsteraksi antar sesama.Akibatnya banyak sekali penduduk yang menghabiskan waktu luangnya diluar rumah untuk berinteraksi dan bersosialisasi, namun hal ini menyebabkan kemacetan dan juga kebisingan yang cukup mengganggu warga lainnya. Permasalahan ini akan dijawab dengan produk arsitektur berupa wadah yang menjadi tempat bagi mereka untuk berinteraksi,melepas penat dan stress, menghabiskan waktu luangnya dan melakukan berbagai kegiatan tanpa membedakan golongan manapun dan terbuka untuk umum tanpa dipungut biaya. Di dalam bangunan ini nantinya akan dimasukkan beberapa program seperti pameran, kelas daur ulang, area makanan, dan hiburan lainnya, yang ditentukan berdasarkan karakteristik dari wilayah Tambora ini.Bangunan ini juga mempunyai area komersil seperti toko retail sovenir dan toko material. Proyek ini di design berdasarkan metode perancangan re-image oleh John Zeisel, analisis dan riset pribadi yang berfokus pada fungsi dan massa bangunan agar bisa memberikan dampak positif bagi lingkungan Kawasan Tambora.

Authors: Williams Matthew Nathaniel , Golwyn Daniel Howard , Dickey Kevin Webster , Regan John David
Published: March 2021

A patient who underwent placement of an inferior vena cava (IVC) filter before total knee arthroplasty with a history of venous thromboembolism following knee replacement 10 years prior. Difficulty releasing the filter during delivery resulted in approximately 17° of medial tilt of the filter apex. Follow-up computed tomography after arthroplasty 4 months after placement demonstrated that the filter self-centered in the IVC with subsequent straightforward retrieval.
Examining Twitter use in interventional radiology: A comparison with cardiology and orthopedic surgery
Authors: Chadha Sakshum , Nirgudkar Neel , Shukla Pratik , Kumar Abhishek
Published: March 2021

Objectives:

The objectives of the study were to characterize the similarities and differences in amount and quality of user engagement on Twitter between interventional radiology (IR), cardiology, and orthopedic surgery and identify trends in Twitter use by the IR community.

Material and Methods:

General specialty hashtags and groups of users were identified for IR, cardiology, and orthopedic surgery and used for stratified searches of tweets using Symplur Hashtag Finder over a 5-year period. Analytics for total statistics, associated hashtags, common words, total Twitter activity, and a network analysis were obtained for predefined user groups.

Results:

A total of 278,866 IR, 420,021 cardiology, and 106,684 orthopedic surgery tweets were analyzed. IR had the highest percentage of retweets, media files, mentions, and replies. Between physicians, IR had fewer users than cardiology and orthopedic surgery but a greater percentage of users tweeting at higher volumes compared to cardiology and orthopedic surgery. IR had greater average interactions per user than cardiology and orthopedic surgery, but IR overall had a lower percentage of tweets by organizations.

Conclusion:

Social media activity in IR demonstrates substantial interaction and engagement despite having less users than cardiology and orthopedic surgery. Most of this activity was noted to be between IR physicians, while the other two specialties had more interaction with users unrelated to the medical field. These data provide insight into the nature of Twitter users within IR; being aware of these results could motivate users to increase their own interactions with patients and members of the public sphere.

Published: March 2021

Appraising SARS-CoV-2 virus under the taxonomy category of coronaviridae family, which has been responsible for more than two million fatalities across the globe. It not only jeopardizes the normal life, but also potentiating the evolutionary progress towards a more lethal form. The lethal form, albeit is a bit virulent, is likely to predominate, thereby causing cumulative damage in any cluster that cannot even combat the wide spectrum of genetic variation. The impact on the vertical COVID-19 transmissibility of antenatal population is still sketchy about “nosocomial transmission” and the measures crude. The paper has reviewed the placental pathological findings of pregnant women afflicted with SARS-CoV-2 including the information, gathered from the subsequent stages of gestational outcomes. The possibility of the vertical transmission of SARS-CoV-2 due to the probable placental barrier damage caused by the severe maternal hypoxia, Homo sapiens (human) angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (hACE2) influenced transplacental migration of SARS-CoV-2 in advanced gestational age, the plausible presence of RNAemia (detection of SARS-CoV-2 in the blood) in hematogenous route was reviewed in this paper. Nevertheless, the probability of susceptible intrauterine or perinatal infection of fetus does not conclusively decide as chances of involving placental coexpression of hACE2 and transmembrane protease, serine 2 in cytoplasmic entry of SARS-CoV-2 remains insignificant, exhibiting the probable relative insensitivity to transplacental infection. The present paper will provide an important insight about the wider understanding of the SARS-CoV-2 pathogenesis in the placenta that canvassed across all trimesters of pregnancy in response to the indiscriminate spread across globe at the time of therapeutic interventions.
Mollaret’s triangle: An important neuroanatomical territory for all clinicians
Authors: Bulleid Lindsey , Hughes Tom , Leach Paul
Published: March 2021

Background:

Hypertrophic olivary degeneration is a rare condition caused by damage within the triangle of Guillain and Mollaret. We discuss the anatomical, radiological, and clinical history of this rare condition.

Case Description:

A 32-year-old lady presented with sub-acute headache, photophobia, and dizziness. She also described facial tingling and itching over her nose, and a thirty-minute episode of slurred speech. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a 12.1 × 11 × 7.3 mm lesion arising from the floor of the fourth ventricle [Figure 1]. Postoperative imaging confirmed complete resection of the tumor, but changes consistent with hypertrophic olivary degeneration [Figure 2a and b].

Conclusion:

An awareness of this complication is of importance to all clinical neuroscience to prevent misdiagnosis with the occurrence of new symptoms.
Quantum algorithms for shifted subset problems
Authors: Montanaro A.
Published: March 2021

We consider a recently proposed generalisation of the abelian hidden subgroup problem: the {\em shifted subset problem}. The problem is to determine a subset $S$ of some abelian group, given access to quantum states of the form $\ket{S+x}$, for some unknown shift $x$. We give quantum algorithms to find Hamming spheres and other subsets of the boolean cube $\{0,1\}^n$. The algorithms have time complexity polynomial in $n$ and give rise to exponential separations from classical computation.
Practical random number generation protocol for entanglement-based quantum key distribution
Authors: Xavier G.B. , da Silva T. Ferreira , de Faria G. Vilela , Temporao G.P. , von der Weid J.P.
Published: March 2021

A simple protocol which takes advantage of the inherent random times of detections in single photon counting modules is presented for random active basis choices when using entanglement-based protocols for Quantum Key Distribution (QKD). It may also be applicable to the BB84 protocol in certain cases. The scheme presented uses the single photon detectors already present on a QKD setup, working on the same rate as the system is capable of detecting, and is, therefore, not limited by the output rates of quantum random number generators. This protocol only requires small hardware modifications making it an attractive solution. We perform a proof-of-principle experiment employing a spontaneous parametric down-conversion process in a $\chi^{(2)}$ non-linear crystal to demonstrate the feasibility of our scheme, and show that the generated sequence passes randomness tests.
Modelling Cationic Diffusion in Nickel-Based Honeycomb Layered Tellurates using Vashishta-Rahman Interatomic Potential and Relevant Insights
Authors: Sau Kartik , Ikeshoji Tamio , Kanyolo Godwill Mbiti , Masese Titus
Published: March 2021

Although the fascinatingly rich crystal chemistry of honeycomb layered oxides has been accredited as the propelling force behind their remarkable electrochemistry, the atomistic mechanisms surrounding their operations remain unexplored. Thus, herein, we present an extensive molecular dynamics study performed systematically using a refined set of inter-atomic potential parameters of A2Ni2TeO6 (where A = Li, Na, and K). We demonstrate the effectiveness of the Vashishta-Rahman form of the interatomic potential in reproducing various structural and transport properties of this promising class of materials and predict an exponential increase in cationic diffusion with larger interlayer distances. The simulations further demonstrate the correlation between broadened inter-layer (inter-slab) distances associated with the larger ionic radii of K and Na compared to Li and the enhanced cationic conduction exhibited in K2Ni2TeO6 and Na2Ni2TeO6 relative to Li2Ni2TeO6. Whence, our findings connect lower potential energy barriers, favourable cationic paths and wider bottleneck size along the cationic diffusion channel within frameworks (comprised of larger mobile cations) to the improved cationic diffusion experimentally observed in honeycomb layered oxides. Furthermore, we explicitly study the role of inter-layer distance and cationic size in cationic diffusion. Our theoretical studies reveal the dominance of inter-layer distance over cationic size, a crucial insight into the further performance enhancement of honeycomb layered oxides.

Published: March 2021

Se está llevando a cabo un número considerable de ensayos clínicos en todo el mundo en respuesta a la pandemia de COVID-19, incluso en países de ingresos bajos y medios como los de América Latina y el Caribe. Sin embargo, la abundancia de estudios no necesariamente acorta el camino para encontrar intervenciones seguras y eficaces frente a la COVID-19. Se analizaron los ensayos para el tratamiento y la prevención de la COVID-19 de los países de América Latina y el Caribe que están registrados en la Plataforma de Registros Internacionales de Ensayos Clínicos de la Organización Mundial de la Salud, y se identificó una tendencia hacia la realización de estudios pequeños, repetitivos y no rigurosos que duplican los esfuerzos y merman recursos limitados sin producir conclusiones significativas sobre la seguridad y la eficacia de las intervenciones evaluadas. Se evaluaron asimismo los desafíos que plantea la realización de investigaciones científicamente sólidas y socialmente valiosas en América Latina y el Caribe a fin de brindar recomendaciones que alienten la realización de ensayos clínicos que tengan más probabilidades de producir evidencia sólida durante la pandemia.

Concepções de Ciência em livros didáticos de Física: análise de uma coleção do PNLD
Authors: Alencar Sarah Orthmann Tavernard , Arthury Luiz Henrique Martins
Published: March 2021

A partir do importante papel dos livros didáticos usados atualmente nas escolas e do consenso existente acerca da importância de uma compreensão adequada dos processos de obtenção de conhecimento científico para além dos resultados da ciência, pretendemos analisar a ocorrência de concepções a respeito da atividade científica em uma coleção de física aprovada no Programa Nacional do Livro e do Material Didático (PNLD) de 2018. Desenvolvemos um roteiro de análise subsidiado pelos tipos de leitura apontados por Gil (2010) e pelas concepções de ciência categorizadas por Gil-Pérez et al. (2001). Identificamos que todas essas concepções aparecem, em algum nível, nos livros analisados, e apontamos que a coleção contribui para a superação de algumas concepções inadequadas sobre a atividade científica, apesar de apresentar uma insuficiência no tratamento de outras. Finalmente, apontamos caminhos para que nosso roteiro de análise e nossos resultados possam auxiliar outros trabalhos correlatos, de modo a representar um elemento de avaliação adicional em relação a livros e materiais didáticos, com vista a um ensino que também contemple aspectos sobre a natureza da ciência.
Gestão de Emoções na Mediação
Authors: Sousa Marta
Published: March 2021

O trabalho que aqui se apresenta tenta demonstrar a importância do comportamento emocional. Este comportamento está sempre presente, em nenhum momento o nosso cérebro emocional é absolutamente desligado. O que tentamos com este trabalho é verificar a relação das emoções na mediação. Para tal, sentimos a necessidade de abordar essa relação de forma tripartida. Em primeiro lugar, da perspetiva emocional do mediador. Se é verdade que este é imparcial, menos verdade não será dizer que é, como todos os seres humanos, um ser emocional e deve ser dono de um auto-conhecimento avançado para se certificar que o seu sistema emocional não interfere com o bom desempenho da tarefa de mediador. Em segundo lugar, da perspetiva emocional do mediado. Como é que as emoções principais são expressas, como é que o mediador as pode reconhecer e apaziguá-las ou potenciá-las? Em terceiro lugar, da relação das emoções do mediador e das emoções do mediado. Vamos tentar perceber como é que o mediador pode causar um bom impacto e transmitir confiança. Também como é que o mediador pode aplicar técnicas de comunicação para manter essa confiança e desempenhar um papel competente.

O desenfreado crescimento da população carcerária no Brasil, que atualmente ocupa a 3ª posição na lista de países com maior massa de presos no mundo, de acordo com relatório do INFOPEN (sistema de informações do Departamento Penitenciário Nacional) de 2017, é tema pungente. Inobstante a quantidade exorbitante de pessoas encarceradas, a maior parte desta massa refere-se a presos provisórios, ou seja, sem condenação definitiva e, neste diapasão, a audiência de custódia releva-se com instituto imprescindível na observância não apenas na observância da legalidade técnica da prisão flagrancial, mas também com relação à preservação da integridade física do flagranteado e da avaliação acerca da necessidade de manter o flagranteado no cárcere. Destarte, este artigo visa, primordialmente, delinear o panorama do instituto da audiência de custódia, no contexto do ordenamento jurídico pátrio, tecendo considerações em sede de direito comparado, no intuito de avaliar se há alinhamento na prática dos ditames constantes nas legislações internacionais das quais o Brasil é signatário.

Bioinformatics Analysis of JAZF1 Gene in Broilers with Ascites Syndrome
Authors: Guo FengPing
Published: March 2021

Pulmonary vascular remodeling (PVR) is the main characteristic lesion of ascites syndrome (AS) in broilers. JAZF1 plays an important role in PVR, but there is no study on its protein function and structure. In this study, the physical and chemical properties, hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity and transmembrane domain, phosphorylation site and glycosylation site, subcellular localization and signal peptide, secondary and tertiary structure, antigen peptide and conserved domain and phylogenetic relationship of JAZF1 protein were predicted online by bioinformatics tools. The results showed that the number of amino acids of JAZF1 was 243aa, the theoretical isoelectric point was 8.63, the instability index was 58.1, and the average coefficient of hydrophilicity was -0.674. It was found to be a hydrophilic protein having 35 phosphorylation sites and a N-glycosylation site with no transmembrane domain. The protein is expressed in the nucleus, there is no signal peptide distribution in the whole sequence and the secondary structure is mainly composed of random coil and α- helix. There were 7 B cell epitopes, 7 conserved domains and compared with other birds, JAZF1 is 95.61% similar. In summary, from the analysis we came to conclude that the amino acid sequence 64-80aa, 91-108aa, 136-151aa and 179-187aa can be selected as antigen sites and among which 136-151aa may be the best. This study lays a good foundation for follow-up experiments, which then provides powerful conditions for pathological detection of pulmonary vascular remodeling and gene drug therapy of ascites syndrome in broilers.
Genetic Diversity of Clostridium perfringens Strains Isolated from Broiler Chickens Revealed by PFGE Analysis in China and Pakistan
Authors: Zafar Khan Muhammad Umar
Published: March 2021

Clostridium perfringens (C. perfringens) is widely distributed in broiler chickens causing clinical and subclinical enteritis and is especially known for causing necrotic enteritis (NE). There are numerous reports of NE outbreaks in Pakistan as well as China but there is a lack of information related to PFGE profile from both the countries. To close this gap, we designed this study and obtained samples from broiler chicken farms located in 3 different regions of Pakistan and 4 different regions of China. A total of 79 fecal swabs (Pakistan=29; China=50) were collected and grown on FTA media. Further, isolates were grown on TSE agar and black colonies were selected for DNA extraction. All 79 isolates were tested for toxin profiles by PCR (α-gene; beta-2; netB gene) and PFGE profiling (pulsotypes analysis). Toxinotyping results revealed that all the isolates (n=50) from China were type A (α-toxin positive) while 23 and 6 isolates (n=29) from Pakistan were type A (α-toxin positive) and type G (α-toxin, NetB positive), respectively. Toxinotyping revealed α-toxin is highly prevalent in both the countries while from Pakistani isolates, NetB toxin was also detected. PFGE discriminated 79 isolates into 45 different PFGE patterns (pulsotypes). The analysis further showed different pulsotypes originating from China and Pakistan and isolates were subtyped by SmaI. The results showed high genetic polymorphism in C. perfringens even within the same strain. These preliminary findings of genetic variations will further help to design control strategies

Published: March 2021

The study was aimed to isolate BoHV-1 circulating in Lahore, Pakistan and its genetic characterization. For this purpose, blood samples were collected from different areas of district Lahore through convenient sampling technique. Out of 100 blood samples, 69 (69%, 95% CI: 58.86-77.66) samples have shown seropositivity against BoHV-1 through ELISA. For the isolation of BoHV-1, nasal swab samples were collected from 69 seropositive cattle and buffalo. Out of 69 nasal swab samples, only 6 samples have shown the visible cytopathic effect and confirmed through nested polymerase chain reaction by targeting glycoprotein B (gB). The phylogenetic analysis showed that local isolates showed similarity to subtype 1.1 of BoHV-1 and had 99-100% homology with Cooper strain. It was concluded that BoHV-1.1 is being circulating in Pakistan and further studies are needed which will help for clear understanding of virus characterization and development of effective local vaccine
Sequences of Word Problems in Elementary Mathematics Textbooks Based on Nominalization: Focusing on the Unit ‘Ratio and Rate’
Authors:   The Korea Society Of Educational Studies In Mathematics, Lee Kwanhee , Chang Hyewon
Published: March 2021

As part of linguistic approaches to narrowing the gap between everyday words and mathematical representations in the mathematical modeling process of word problems as known to cause difficulties for students, this study examines the nominalization of the grammatical metaphor in systematic functional linguistics. We analyzed word problems in the unit “Ratio and Rate” from the mathematics textbook 6-1 using two conceptual frameworks: types of nominalization and methods for nominalization. Our analysis shows that not only do [Type 1], [Type 2], and [Type 2'] of the nominalization fail to have proper sequence but also nominalizations by clause composition, phrase composition, and vocabulary are present with little consideration of sequence from a linguistic point of view. As regards students’ ability to use nominalization to identify objects for mathematical objectification in word problems, we discuss the importance of and method for appropriate curricular sequencing of word problems in mathematics textbooks relative to both the types of and the methods for nominalization.

Positive emotions have drawn considerable interest of researchers in the recent past. One such emotion is happiness. The current study attempts to discover the underlying mechanism through which consumer happiness transforms into positive outcomes. Based on the “broaden and build theory of positive emotions” a model was developed and tested. Gratitude has been taken as a mediating variable. The proposed model explains the Pakistani customers’ shopping considerations from well known clothing outlets. Consumer happiness in this study has been used as an antecedent of repurchase intentions and customer advocacy, whereas, gratitude mediates the relationship between consumer happiness and positive outcomes. Data was collected with the help of structured questionnaire from 330 respondents through survey method. All questionnaires were personally administered. PLS-SEM techniques have been used through smart PLS 3 for testing the model. The relationship between consumer happiness and customer advocacy was found significant. Gratitude was found as a significant mediator among consumer happiness and outcomes. However, repurchase intention from branded clothing stores in Pakistan was found to be insignificantly affected by consumer happiness. The study contributes towards the better comprehension about the shopping experience of Pakistani shoppers towards branded clothing stores in true letter and spirit. The study contributes to the existing body of literature by incorporating experiences of shoppers from emerging economies like Pakistan and establishing the mechanism through which consumer happiness transforms consumer experiences into positive outcomes. Keywords: Consumer Happiness, Gratitude, Repurchase Intention, Customer Advocacy.
Evaluating the challenges and benefits associated with resource planning and leveling in the Kenyan Construction Industry

Published: March 2021

Resource Planning and Leveling are two critical areas of resource management which need to be implemented by contractors to aid in construction project execution. However, in the process of undertaking these processes in their projects, contractors meet a number of challenges which discourage them from implementing Resource Planning and Leveling. Nonetheless, Resource Planning and Leveling has a number of benefits which may not be known by some contractors. The purpose of this research therefore was to establish and evaluate the challenges and benefits associated with Resource Planning and Leveling. A survey design was adopted by the researcher. A sample of 106 respondents was selected randomly and a response rate of 76% was achieved. Quantitative data was analysed using descriptive statistics and relative importance index analysis while qualitative data was analysed thematically. Contractors were found to experience serious challenges in their quest to execute Resource Planning and Leveling in their projects. The three most pressing challenges experienced by contractors were found to be: project delays (RII=0.8597); technical incompetence (RII=0.8564); materials shortages or late delivery (RII=0.8390). A number of benefits were found to entice contractors to carry out Resource Planning and Leveling in their projects. The three most significant benefits were: establishing plans for material delivery (RII=0.9215); balanced resources, reducing over allocations or overtime (RII=0.9165) and determining or predicts resources needed (RII=0.9139).
Optimization of isolated and combined pad foundation using computer aided application of finite element approach
Authors: Ubi Stanley E.
Published: March 2021

Most Finite Element packages provide means to generate meshes automatically. However, the user is usually confronted with the problem of not knowing whether the mesh generated is appropriate for the problem at hand. Since the accuracy of the Finite Element results is mesh dependent, mesh selection forms a very important step in the analysis of isolated and combined footing pad foundation. SAFE is an ultimate tools use in the design of concrete floors and foundation system, hence provide a suitable means for the user. From framing layout all the way through to detail drawing production, SAFE integrate every aspect of engineering design which are in one process easy and intuitive environment. SAFE provides unmatched benefits to the engineer with its truly unique combination of power, comprehensive capabilities, and ease-of-use. In the context of this research, we have plotted graphs showing the relationship between the nodes and displacement with the stress patterns as generated from the software. It is understood from the graph that multiple elements in the process of meshing will make the footing to be at equilibrium. The research also carry the shape deformed diagram which shows the deformation of the footing due to the impose load (stress) on the footing, it also give the bending moment diagram of the footings. The basic structure and analysis of the single and double pad footing foundations have been designed using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) with the failure planes being considered. The results obtained, it is assumed that FEA is an ideal design method that breaks foundation design into basic elements and nodes that shows the action of the loading on the footings.

GÊNERO, SEXUALIDADE E NAÇÃO: A RAINHA GINGA ENTRE O ESQUECIMENTO E A INVENÇÃO DO MUNDO
Authors: Alves da Silva Mariana , Thiago Maia Helder
Published: March 2021

Neste trabalho, analisamos a construção da personagem Rainha Ginga, nos dois romances mais recentes de José Eduardo Agualusa em que essa figura histórica aparece, Teoria Geral do Esquecimento (2012) e A rainha Ginga: e de como os africanos inventaram o mundo (2014), buscando compreender como a versão literária da Rainha Ginga permite refletir sobre memória e passado e, ainda, sobre identidade nacional em suas articulações com gênero e sexualidade. Nossa análise, baseada nos estudos de Inocência Mata (2006, 2014), Mario César Lugarinho (2016) e Helder Thiago Maia (2018), busca encontrar propostas de leitura queer da construção de Ginga como personagem.

LINGUÍSTICA CONTEMPORÂNEA NA RÚSSIA: FERRAMENTAS PARA UM DIÁLOGO INTER BRICS
Authors: S. Nikolaeva Elena
Published: March 2021

A ciência é uma das características definidoras da cultura moderna e talvez seu componente mais dinâmico. Hoje é impossível discutir problemas sociais, culturais, antropológicos sem levar em conta o desenvolvimento do pensamento científico. Ela está cada vez mais tentando integrar organicamente as conquistas científicas e tecnológicas ao mundo, usando seus métodos e dados de pesquisas científicas para elaborar planos de grande escala para o desenvolvimento social e econômico. O desenvolvimento dos conhecimentos científicos é amplamente determinado pelo estado da linguística - a ciência da linguagem, com a qual os fundamentos do conhecimento científico são formulados e transmitidos. Os processos de globalização que ocorrem no mundo moderno têm impacto no setor educacional. Hoje estamos testemunhando o surgimento de uma economia global do conhecimento, o que obriga a desenvolver ativamente a cooperação acadêmica internacional. Desde os primeiros dias de sua existência, o BRICS começou a desenvolver a cooperação acadêmica. Só a internacionalização da educação é capaz de proporcionar conhecimentos relevantes e a mais ampla compreensão possível do mundo e da interação das culturas que o constituem. A linguística russa que, por um lado, se desenvolve em linha com as tendências científicas modernas, por outro, devido às peculiaridades do desenvolvimento histórico, possui muitas características específicas, pode dar uma contribuição significativa para esse processo.
LEITURAS E ESCRITAS EM MOVIMENTO, EM MOÇAMBIQUE
Authors: Manjate Teresa
Published: March 2021

O presente artigo, “Leituras e Escritas em Movimento”, faz uma reflexão em torno da atividade da leitura e da deselitização do livro, no contexto moçambicano. A abordagem é feita, tendo em conta a premissa muito comum no nosso seio de que os níveis de contacto com o livro, o hábito e o gosto de leitura são muito baixos. A reflexão baseou-se em entrevistas realizadas junto de ativistas moçambicanos que atuam em movimentos que desenvolvem atividades de leitura literária, em escolas e fora delas, nos bairros e em espaços públicos, envolvendo crianças, jovens e adultos. Além das entrevistas, a reflexão baseou-se também na consulta bibliográfica e documental. O argumento central é que os níveis de leitura são baixos e que ainda não está enraizado o hábito de leitura entre os jovens e, de igual modo, entre os adultos, devido a fatores históricos e sociais que funcionam como obstáculo para o seu desenvolvimento. Os mesmos fatores funcionam, ao mesmo tempo, como catalisadores da elitização do livro.
