Evolution of non-university digital teacher training in Spain: a comparison among different regions
Authors: Napal María , Contreras Cintado Eduardo
Published: August 2024

In recent decades, Information and Communication Technologies have gained significant relevance in all areas of society, including the field of education. This is due, among other reasons, to the transformative methodological potential they present and their multiple possibilities in teaching and learning processes. The presence of digital infrastructure within schools is crucial for integrating technology into them, but it is also necessary for teachers to know how to use it in a didactic and pedagogical way with students. Generally, digital training for teachers has focused more on understanding the tools and their most basic functions than on their pedagogical use within the classrooms. This study analyzes the number and themes of digital training courses offered to teachers by Spanish educational administrations, classifying them into two main areas: (i) knowledge of tools and initiation, and (ii) didactics and curricular content. The results show a change in the content of these teacher training programs over time.

En las últimas décadas, las Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación han adquirido una relevancia significativa en todos los ámbitos de la sociedad, incluido el campo de la educación. Esto se debe, entre otras razones, al potencial metodológico transformador que presentan y a sus múltiples posibilidades en los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje. La presencia de infraestructuras digitales en los centros educativos es crucial para integrar la tecnología en ellos, pero también es necesario que los profesores sepan utilizarla de forma didáctica y pedagógica con los alumnos. Generalmente, la formación digital del profesorado se ha centrado más en el conocimiento de las herramientas y sus funciones más básicas que en su uso pedagógico dentro de las aulas. Este estudio analiza el número y la temática de los cursos de formación digital ofrecidos a los profesores por las administraciones educativas españolas, clasificándolos en dos grandes áreas: (i) conocimiento de las herramientas e iniciación, y (ii) didáctica y contenidos curriculares. Los resultados muestran un cambio en el contenido de estos programas de formación del profesorado a lo largo del tiempo.

Constitutionalism: issues of legal thought
Authors: Byelov Dmytro , Bielova Miroslava
Published: August 2024

It is noted that establishing criteria for evaluating legal concepts remains one of the unresolved problems in law. Their interpretation often depends more on the subjective view of the legislator or scholar than on legal logic. At the same time, even the most detailed definition cannot encompass the full diversity of legal relations and be universally applicable. Therefore, formulating precise concepts in constitutional law is complicated by the fact that the theory and practice of national and international constitutionalism are still developing, and their terminological apparatus is still forming.
It is pointed out that the concept of “constitutionalism” has become firmly established in modern scientific discourse. Although the term has humanitarian origins, today it finds application in the natural sciences as well. However, “constitutionalism” is most often used in the humanities, especially in jurisprudence.
It is emphasized that most modern states have constitutions that define their structure and procedures for managing various spheres of life. However, the presence of a constitution is not a sufficient condition for recognizing a state as constitutional. The constitutionality of a state is not limited to the existence of a basic law, which may reflect a certain compromise of socio-political forces and establish the state structure and powers of authorities. Even if this law has supremacy over other laws and can be changed only by a special procedure, this does not guarantee true constitutionalism. Thus, a state can have a constitution but not have constitutionalism, and vice versa. The  authors  conclude  that  despite  the  diversity  of  models  of constitutionalism, common principles can be identified that characterize it as a legal concept:

The supremacy of legal laws, particularly the constitution as the fundamental law;
Legal protection of individual rights and freedoms;
Institutional and legal organization of state power with horizontal and vertical distribution.

It is important to note that the universality of these principles is associated with the transformation of Western society from a religious worldview to a rational perception of the world. This change influenced the ideas about the state and society, contributed to the formation of classical liberal civil society and the concept of an autonomous individual.

Published: August 2024

El sector turístico global sufrió enormemente por la pandemia de COVID-19, al enfrentar grandes desafíos debido a la naturaleza presencial de sus servicios. El cantón Penipe posee varios atractivos turísticos que conforman una ventaja para el desarrollo de sus empresas. Sin embargo, ¿existe desarrollo de las empresas del sector turístico en el cantón Penipe, Ecuador? Para ello se realiza un análisis con un enfoque cuantitativo y un diseño no experimental de fuentes secundarias. Los resultados indican que la búsqueda de información sobre el turismo en Penipe revela deficiencias significativas. La visibilidad de los negocios es limitada, principalmente restringida a Google Maps, y las entidades de control no proporcionan datos completos ni coherentes. La falta de clasificación y registros detallados refleja un bajo desarrollo empresarial, lo que dificulta que los servicios turísticos sean conocidos por los turistas externos. Además, pocos estudios abordan el desarrollo empresarial en Penipe, aunque algunos proponen mejoras. En resumen, las empresas turísticas en Penipe están subdesarrolladas debido a su escasa visibilidad, falta de constitución legal adecuada y poco uso de tecnologías, hecho que limita su crecimiento y atracción de turistas.

Developing new boutique winery businesses—Lessons from the Australian experience
Authors: Dean Paul , Whitfield Richard , Noordzy Gert
Published: August 2024

The global wine industry has been growing strongly for many years with entrepreneurs often seeking to establish boutique wineries in new or established wine-producing regions, partly to indulge their passion for wine but also to develop successful, long-term business ventures. Within this context, Australia has successfully grown its wine industry over several decades and is now one of the world’s largest wine exporters. The country is known for its robust mix of large and small wine producers and wine tourism. This paper explores key issues that should be considered by entrepreneurs contemplating new boutique winery ventures to increase their chances of business success. This is done by reviewing the general wine industry in Australia and comparing the situations of five successful smaller wine producers scattered around the country. To carry out the comparisons, the authors reviewed public promotions, customer reviews, and other materials about the case businesses and industry and interviewed proprietors as needed. A representative convenience sample of successful boutique wineries from several major Australian wine regions was chosen for review so that the whole Australian industry was covered. Based on their analysis, the authors firmly believe that boutique winery entrepreneurs must examine all aspects of the business model for their proposed venture and especially their interface with wine tourism to improve their chances for long-term growth and business success. Like most real estate investments, the location of the vineyard is critically important. Then, as well as producing high-quality grapes and wines and developing strong cellar door sales, they should also incorporate food offerings that emphasize pairing their wines with local produce. In addition, they should establish onsite “experience” focused lodging options that showcase local arts and crafts, with “glamping” style accommodations providing a particularly suitable option. These are all matters which should be considered from the very outset when the venture is initially being conceptualized and plans are being formulated for the development of the chosen property. For the sake of clarity, within this study, the term “boutique winery” refers to a wine-making facility with an adjoining vineyard.
National Culture Moderates Corporate Governance and Integrated Reporting
Authors: Machmuddah Zaky , Sumaryati Anna , Prawitasari Dian
Published: August 2024

This study aims to prove that national culture strengthens corporate governance's impact on integrated reporting. Secondary data are used in this investigation obtained from the integrated reporting database example. The sample was taken using the purposive sampling method which ultimately obtained 336 samples of data, with observation years from 2019-2022. Data processing using Warp PLS version 7.0. This research demonstrates that national culture strengthens corporate governance's impact on integrated reporting. However, only the culture of uncertainty avoidance and long-term oriented culture have a role in strengthening corporate governance's impact on integrated reporting. In addition, corporate governance also has a positive effect on integrated reporting. The implication of this study is the importance of the role of national culture and corporate governance on integrated reporting. The originality of this study is that national culture is used to strengthen corporate governance's impact on integrated reporting, which has so far been difficult to find similar research.
Electricity Supply Interruptions and Its Impact on Local Economies
Authors:   Philippine Institute for Development Studies, Francisco Kris , Abrigo Michael
Published: August 2024

Electricity serves as a crucial input to many businesses and household activities. As such, the government has historically focused its efforts on expanding the populations’ access to electricity. By contrast, electricity reliability has received less attention from policymakers despite the economic disruption caused by electricity supply interruptions. This paper seeks to deepen the discussion on electricity reliability in the Philippines by providing empirical evidence on the impact of electricity supply interruptions on local economies. Our results show that frequent electricity supply interruptions lead to lower local government income due to reductions in receipts from economic enterprises, business taxes, and real estate taxes. We also found that, consequently, the local government’s ability to provide services related to housing and community development, as well as labor and employment, is constrained, placing the local population at a disadvantage.

Authors: Casas Lyle Daryll , Bagas Joy , Ulep Valerie Gilbert ,   Department of Health,   National Nutrition Council,   United Nations Children's Fund,   Philippine Institute for Development Studies
Published: August 2024

This report presents a framework for categorizing nutrition expenditures of national government agencies. The framework was developed through extensive literature review and validation sessions with government agencies. It consists of five levels of classification elements: major intervention classification, program domain, program component classification, and specific interventions. Additionally, it includes three markers to group and label nutrition-related line-item expenditures: risk factors of malnutrition, nutrition intervention focus area, and population demographic group. The national government can utilize this framework to evaluate the adequacy and efficiency of public spending on nutrition. Furthermore, it can be used to assess the alignment of public spending with the Philippine Plan of Action for Nutrition (PPAN), as well as with reform actions such as Universal Healthcare (UHC) and multi-sectoral and life-course approaches to health and nutrition.

THEORETICAL FOUNDATIONS OF ASSESSMENT TECHNOLOGY THAT ENSURES THE EDUCATIONAL ACHIEVEMENT OF STUDENTS
Authors: İskəndərova Gülnarə
Published: August 2024

The theoretical underpinnings of the evaluation technology that guarantees pupils' academic success are reflected in the paper. All forms of assessments, whether carried out in a classroom or outside of it, are predicated on a number of philosophical and scientific tenets. Every assessment, regardless of its intent or setting, is built around three primary components: tasks that enable students to demonstrate their knowledge and develop subject-related competencies, and interpretive strategies for deriving inferences from the performance evidence gathered. Alternatively, any assessment is built around three interconnected components or pillars: the cognitive characteristics of educational accomplishment that need to be evaluated, the activities that are utilized to gather data about student achievement (observation), and the techniques employed to evaluate the data that is gathered from the tasks.

These unsolicited and unwelcome perilous emails lead to adverse impacts like security risks, time and resources wastage, financial loss, reputation damage, and legal consequences. Therefore, intelligent anti-spam email filters are required to prevent such emails from being delivered to the recipient's mailbox. Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning algorithms provide trustworthy countermeasures and affordable solutions to tackle this global problem. Machine Learning techniques like Logistics Regression, Decision Tree, Support Vector Machines, K-nearest neighbor, Naïve Bayes Classifier, and Random Forest provide solutions to classify spam emails with reasonable accuracy and precision. This research explores different approaches to identifying spam emails and developing machine-learning algorithms to filter such emails automatically. Results manifest that the Support Vector Machine and Naïve Bayes Model most accurately classified spam emails. The Support Vector Machine exhibited the best balance between high precision and recall, making it highly effective in identifying spam messages with fewer false positives.

O descolamento prematuro de placenta (DPP) é uma condição obstétrica séria caracterizada pela separação súbita da placenta do útero após a 20ª semana de gestação, resultando em complicações graves tanto para a mãe quanto para o feto. Esta revisão aborda as causas, diagnóstico e manejo do DPP, enfatizando sua importância como uma causa significativa de sangramento vaginal na segunda metade da gravidez e suas implicações para a saúde materno-fetal. As causas do DPP incluem fatores traumáticos, como acidentes e traumas abdominais, e não-traumáticos, como hipertensão, tabagismo, uso de drogas, idade materna avançada, e condições como pré-eclâmpsia e ruptura prematura das membranas. O diagnóstico é primariamente clínico, baseado em sintomas como dor abdominal intensa, hipertonia uterina e sinais de sofrimento fetal, com a ultrassonografia e a cardiotocografia auxiliando na avaliação do bem-estar fetal. O manejo do DPP é uma emergência obstétrica, requerendo intervenções rápidas para estabilizar a mãe e o feto. A abordagem terapêutica inclui a estabilização hemodinâmica materna, monitorização fetal contínua e, em casos graves, cesariana de emergência. Após o parto, o foco permanece na monitorização da hemorragia, estabilidade hemodinâmica e prevenção de complicações, como infecções puerperais.

Authors: Vieira Maria , de Oliveira José
Published: August 2024

Introdução: O climatério pode ser definido como um processo fisiológico de transição entre o período reprodutivo e o período não reprodutivo da vida das mulheres, as mudanças desse período podem causar inúmeros sintomas inclusive distúrbios do sono. Objetivo: Verificar na literatura a influência do climatério sobre a qualidade do sono das mulheres. Método: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura, realizada a partir de um levantamento bibliográfico nas bases de dados MEDLINE, LILACS e SciELO usando os descritores em ciência da saúde: “Climateric” e “Sleep Quality”. Foram selecionados artigos originais dos últimos 5 anos em inglês, português e espanhol. Resultados: A avaliação final resultou em 16 estudos (3 estudos do LILACS, 11 estudos da MEDLINE e 2 estudos da SciELO), dos quais 4 apresentavam-se repetidos, resultando em 12 estudos finais para elaboração da presente revisão. Foi visto que os sintomas causados pelo climatério (vasomotores, genitourinários, psicológicos e metabólicos) estão diretamente ligados a prejuízos na qualidade de sono das mulheres pós menopausa.
La représentation synecdochique du corps et le syndrome narratif dans Truismes de Marie Darrieussecq
Authors: REMADNIA Nouha
Published: August 2024

Dans cet article, nous tentons de voir comment Marie Darrieussecq met en œuvre l’image de la femme animalisée dans son récit Truismes. Le personnage-protagoniste se métamorphose et perd totalement son identité. Utilisée dans un processus de symbolisation, la synecdoque est un outil stylistique fortement utilisé par l’auteure, en l’occurrence, pour focaliser l’attention du lecteur sur les parties du corps qui se défigurent et prennent une autre couleur. L’analyse montre que les procédés de substitution poussent à l’extrême l’image de la femme oppressée. Cet état fait appel à d’autres dans l’univers textuel de l’auteure, et nous conduisent à constater que ce dernier fait du corps féminin, un thème qui tourne à l’obsession, un leitmotiv qui dessine le syndrome narratif.
A study of “Womanhood” as Symbols to Further Colonial, Nationalist, and Religious Communal Agendas in the Indian subcontinent
Authors: Shahrear Faisal Hafiz , Mahim Saif Mahmood
Published: August 2024

This study delves into the historical exploitation of women as symbols to advance colonial, nationalist, and religious communal agendas, particularly focusing on the Indian subcontinent. Through an analysis of various events, including the British response to widow immolation, the Bengal Renaissance, and the aftermath of the Partition of India, the study highlights how women’s plight was manipulated to serve broader political goals. Drawing from sources such as Tanika Sarkar’s Rebels, Wives, Saints and Urvashi Butalia’s The Other Side of Silence, the study underscores the dual nature of women’s victimization: first by patriarchal structures and then by the instrumentalization of their suffering to bolster ideological narratives. It argues that despite purported humanitarian concerns, women’s agency and well-being were often overlooked, with their experiences reduced to mere symbols in the pursuit of power and national identity. This study aims to shed light on the complex intersections of gender, politics, and power dynamics in historical contexts. Examining the instrumentalization of women’s suffering for political ends prompts reflection on the ethical implications of using marginalized groups as symbols to promote ostensibly progressive agendas.
Planetary Water and Oceanic Discourse: Blue Humanities as a New Cultural Turn
Authors: S Reshmi
Published: August 2024

The historicization and theorization of human involvement with water led to the development of “water-centric thinking” which provides fresh perspectives to deal with oceanic geographies. This kind of cultural turn from land to sea enhanced the emergence of a new disciplinary realm called the Blue Humanities. The scrutiny of the sea in relation to contemporary Western culture transformed the utilitarian notion to an aesthetic perspective in connection with the sea. The designation of a new cultural status to the sea has been depicted by attributing oceanic images and metaphors. The paper discusses the environmental issues.Blue Humanities rejects the practice of anthropocentrism or unnecessary human intervention as a threat to the environment. The historian, Ellen Krefting has rightly observed; “Our oceans are radically changing due to human impact. It is our goal to show how knowledge about the sea is produced” (Blue Humanities, 2022). The study makes use of Material Ecocritical theory and qualitative research through analysis and contributions made by Blue Humanities Scholars. Steve Mentz, Dan Brayton, and Hester Blum advocated the need to use the ocean as a powerful lens to shift from watery metaphors to the ocean. Literature, Cultural Studies, andHistory are critically analysed at length to examine ecological ethics in posthuman critical moments. The paper highlights the fact that human commitment to nature is at stake and needs to be rectified at the earliest.

Carbon emissions are one of the components of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the form of carbon dioxide (CO2) which mainly comes from the use of fossil fuels and various human activities. Based on fossil fuel and industrial emissions data, in 2022 Indonesia ranked as the 6th largest carbon emitting country in the world after China, the United States, India, Russia and Japan, with 728.88 million tons of CO2e total emissions. The Ministry of Industry reported that total GHG emissions from Indonesia's industrial sector reached 238.1 million tons of CO2e in 2022. In the mining industry, GHG emissions originate from deforestation, energy use, processing, and refining, with non-renewable energy use being the largest emitter. GHG emissions from primary mineral and metal production contribute approximately 10% of global GHG emissions related to energy. Each mining industry may have varying primary sources of GHG emissions depending on the type of mine and the final product. Mining industries, as one of the major emitters, must conduct GHG inventories to understand emission sources and develop effective reduction strategies. GHG inventory activities are conducted based on guidelines provided by the Ministry of Environment and Forestry's National Greenhouse Gas Inventory Management Handbook (2012), Book II Volumes 1-4. Efforts to reduce GHG emissions can be undertaken through planting plants that have high carbon absorption and storage capabilities in mine reclamation activities, as well as using New and Renewable Energy (NRE) as an alternative to replace fossil energy.
