Travelers on the Straight Path: Truth Seekers
Authors: Alwani Zainab
Published: March 2024

This article analyzes the concepts of al-ṣirāṭ al-mustaqīm (the Straight Path) and istiqāma (steadfastness) and how they guide one to the Qur’ānic roadmap to success in this world and in the hereafter. Al-ṣirāṭ al-mustaqīm is a methodology to define, verify, correct, and establish our concepts, principles, and relationships. I apply the hermeneutic of reading the divine text as a structural unity (al-waḥda al-binā’iyya li-l-Qur’ān). After defining al-ṣirāṭ al-mustaqīm, I suggest that a holistic reading of the Qur’ān can help believers rebuild istiqāma from within it, a specific methodological approach. I present al-ṣirāṭ al-mustaqīm as a roadmap that envisions the characteristics of upright and righteous truth seekers and true believers following Prophet Abraham’s religion and carried on by Prophet Muhammad and his umma to arrive at the Straight Path (Qur’ān 3:68). I close by stressing that it is imperative to become upright by remaining steadfast on the Straight Path. It is by remaining steadfast that individuals can restore balance in their relationships, uniting together as one family.
Norman Rockwell’in ‘Rosie the Riveter’ İsimli Propaganda Afişinin Göstergebilimsel Analizi
Authors: Şirin Bahar
Published: March 2024

Bir düşünce veya eylemi, belli amaçlar çerçevesinde yaymak olarak açıklanan propaganda, tarihte pek çok kez siyaset ve politikanın ayrılmaz bir parçası olarak düşünülmüştür. Sanatın ve görsel iletişim araçlarının propaganda üretiminin ana kaynakları olduğu bu süreçte üretilen afişler, özellikle savaş dönemlerinde ülkelerin izlediği politikaların anlaşılmasında önemli bir konuma sahip olmuştur. Propagandalar, ülkelerin kendi siyaset ve politikaları doğrultusunda yerel halkın ve düşman tarafın yönlendirilebilmesine olanak tanıdığı için özellikle Amerika, Almanya ve İngiltere gibi ülkeler tarafından sıklıkla başvurulan algı metotları olmuştur. İkinci Dünya Savaşı sırasında Amerika’da azalan erkek nüfusun, ekonomide yarattığı iş gücü açığını kapatmak amacıyla başlatılan Perçinci Rosie kampanyasının ürünü olan afişler de kitleleri yönlendirme ve yönetme gücüne sahip olmaları nedeniyle propaganda örnekleri arasında sayılabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada ise Norman Rockwell tarafından üretilen Rosie the Riveter afişini düzanlam ve yananlam katmanları ile inceleyerek örtük anlamları ortaya çıkarmak, Amerika’nın savaş sırasında kadınlara ve savaşın taraflarına yönelik izlediği politikayı tartışmak ve bu çerçevede afişin, hangi propaganda türü altında yer aldığını ve hangi tekniklerin kullanıldığını ifade etmek amaçlanmıştır. Roland Barthes’ın göstergebilimsel analiz yönteminin kullanıldığı çalışmanın ilk kısmında, propagandanın kavramsal olarak gelişimine ve propaganda tekniklerine odaklanılmış; çalışmanın devamında ise Norman Rockwell’in sanatsal yaklaşımı çerçevesinde Rosie the Riveter afişinin göstergebilimsel analizine yer verilmiştir. Analizler doğrultusunda ise Rosie the Riveter afişinin, Amerika’nın kadın nüfusu iş gücüne dahil etme amacının yanı sıra başta Almanya olmak üzere savaşın tarafları üzerinde üstünlük algısı yaratmak amacıyla kullanılmış olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Bununla birlikte afişin “siyasal” ya da “beyaz propaganda” olarak tanımlanabileceği ve afişin üretiminde “transfer”, “halktan biri” ve “herkes yapıyor” propaganda tekniklerinin kullanıldığı anlaşılmıştır.

Authors:   Department of Computer Science, High School of Technology, Mohammed First University, Oujda, Morocco, Zine Abdelkhalek
Published: March 2024

Learning Analytics (LA) is a better solution for harnessing the enormous data that learners leave behind on learning platforms. To take full advantage of it, it needs to be well integrated by teachers. The aim of this study was therefore to explore the needs and willingness of teachers to integrate learning analytics into their courses. This study used a quantitative method to collect data based on a questionnaire distributed to 140 higher education teachers affiliated with Ibn Tofail University. The results of this study show that most teachers are willing and available to commit to the possibility of adopting learning analytics if training and preparation programs on the subject are implemented. They also have other needs for guidance, assistance, easy-to-use tools, and need access to all student data on the appropriate platforms. The study concludes by discussing and proposing a series of recommendations for successfully integrating learning analytics into higher education.

Breast cancer ranks first in contributes to cancer deaths in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the relationship between menarche age, level of knowledge, and history of the use of control birth pills and the incidence of breast cancer. This study employed a case-control design. Inclusion criteria for the case group were women, 20–50 years, breast cancer patients, junior high education level, and married. The subjects excluded respondents who used contraception. The data comes from questioner and medical record. There were 27 respondents each for the case and control group. The result showed a major age range of 31–40 years (63.0%). The education level was dominated by junior high school (40.7%). The chi-square test showed a correlation between the age of menarche (p = 0.01) OR 5.50 (95% CI: 1.604 -18.864), and knowledge (p = 0.00) OR value of 8.31 (95% CI: 2.437-28.354) with breast cancer, but no correlation between history of use of pills contraception with breast cancer (p = 0.74). The dominant risk factor for breast cancer in patients at Dr. Doris Sylvanus Hospital was the level of knowledge. Increasing knowledge about cancer is important in preventing breast cancer in women, especially in Palangkaraya.

Authors: Aras Aliye İrem , Arslan Emine , Özçay Büşra
Published: March 2024

A challenging diagnosis is the outcome of pancreatic cancer's aggressivity and malignant character. This type of cancer is mostly detected in the metastatic stage. Current treatment options have various side effects, result in the survival rates and quality of life of patients are extremely decreased. Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale (L.) Weber ex F.H. Wigg.)  is one of the natural products that has the potential to be therapeutic against a wide range of diseases. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of ethanol extract of dandelion root (DRE) as an alternative anticancer agent. Based on this purpose, milk-rich dandelion roots were collected, cut into small pieces, and then extracted using Soxhlet in the presence of 70% ethanol. The cytotoxic effect of the DRE at certain doses (10, 5, and 2.5 mg/mL) was determined by the Microtetrazolium (MTT) assay for 24, 48, and 72 hours, and half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC)50 values for these incubation periods were found to be 10 mg/mL, 6.80 mg/mL and 6 mg/mL (p0.001), respectively. As a result, DRE may reduce cell viability when applied to aggressive pancreatic cancer cells and may have the potential to be an alternative anticancer agent. This potential can be clarified with further studies.
Expectativas de los ministerios de Hacienda, Economía y Finanzas sobre los precios al carbono y evidencia de su efectividad

Published: March 2024

Este documento analiza las expectativas y los objetivos de los ministerios de Hacienda, Economía y Finanzas de América Latina y el Caribe respecto a la implementación de mecanismos de precios al carbono y contrasta esta con la evidencia existente respecto a estos instrumentos. Se realizaron 12 entrevistas cualitativas a especialistas en ministerios de la región, revelando que estos instrumentos se adoptaron principalmente con el objetivo de apoyar la política climática. Para cumplir este objetivo los ministerios buscan, en algunos casos, que estos instrumentos incentiven la reducción de emisiones o, en otros casos, que cumplan objetivos fiscales y de movilización de inversiones para la acción climática. A su vez, si bien los países tienen expectativas positivas sobre su efectividad para reducir emisiones, no han evaluado su desempeño. El análisis de la evidencia existente concluye que los precios al carbono implementados a la fecha han tenido efectos modestos sobre las emisiones, con múltiples barreras evitando que estos puedan alcanzar su potencial teórico. Sin embargo, si estos instrumentos están bien diseñados, pueden ser un instrumento complementarios para apoyar los esfuerzos de descarbonización, aunque por sí solos son insuficientes para catalizar las transformaciones estructurales necesarias. Por tanto, se recomienda incluirlos en un conjunto más amplio de políticas climáticas, mitigar sus efectos distributivos, evaluar sus resultados y reforzar las capacidades técnicas de los ministerios.
Recepcja literatury polskiej na Węgrzech od 1990 do 2020 roku (rezultaty i braki)
Authors: Balogh Magdolna
Published: March 2024

Na podstawie własnych badań autorka zarysowuje główne cechy recepcji literatury polskiej na Węgrzech w latach 1990 i 2020. Kontekst odbioru stanowi struktura instytucjonalna (wydawnictwo książkowe, dystrybucja, czasopisma), która uległa zmianie po transformacji systemu w 1989 r. Autorka bada kontekst i cele recepcji, następnie skrótowo przedstawia odbiór twórczości czterech autorów: dwóch klasyków dwudziestowiecznych (Czesław Miłosz i Witold Gombrowicz) oraz dwoje współczesnych pisarzy (Olga Tokarczuk i Andrzej Stasiuk). Następnie pokrótce omawia przeciwstawne przypadki odbioru dwóch gatunków (dramat, literatura faktu). Wreszcie mówi o potrzebie ponownego tłumaczenia klasyków XIX wieku.
Desigualdades en el tiempo hasta el diagnóstico del síndrome de Down en Bolivia
Authors: Linares Terrazas Daniel , Luna Barrón Beatriz , Taboada López Gonzalo
Published: March 2024

El síndrome de Down es la condición genética más común y una causa principal de discapacidad intelectual. Las personas en áreas rurales, especialmente aquellas con discapacidades, a menudo enfrentan desigualdades en el acceso a la salud. A partir de los registros clínicos de pacientes con diagnóstico confirmado de síndrome de Down entre 2013 y 2022, por el Instituto de Genética de la Universidad Mayor de San Andrés, La Paz, Bolivia, se analizó, analizó el tiempo hasta el diagnóstico de 250 pacientes con síndrome de Down, mostró que los pacientes procedentes de áreas rurales con síndrome de Down tardan cinco meses en promedio en recibir un diagnóstico, comparado a los dos meses en zonas urbanas (p<0,001). No se encontraron diferencias significativas en el tiempo hasta el diagnostico según el sexo. Sin embargo, se evidenció una mayor proporción de varones provenientes de áreas rurales (p=0,03). Los hallazgos sugieren que los individuos de áreas rurales enfrentan dificultades para recibir el diagnóstico. Por otro lado, las mujeres quizás no sean llevadas a ciudades para un diagnóstico y tratamiento adecuado debido a sesgos de género en ciertas comunidades. Se subraya la importancia de mejorar el acceso a diagnósticos y tratamientos tempranos en áreas rurales.
Evaluating an Instructional Intervention for Research Data Management Training
Authors: Rod Alisa , Hervieux Sandy , Lee NuRee
Published: March 2024

Objective – At a large research university in Canada, a research data management (RDM) specialist and two liaison librarians partnered to evaluate the effectiveness of an active learning component of their newly developed RDM training program. This empirical study aims to contribute a statistical analysis to evaluate an RDM instructional intervention.
Methods – This study relies on a pre- and post-test quasi-experimental intervention during introductory RDM workshops offered 12 times between February 2022 and January 2023. The intervention consists of instruction on best practices related to file-naming conventions. We developed a grading rubric differentiating levels of proficiency in naming a file according to a convention reflecting RDM best practices and international standards. We used manual content analysis to independently code each pre- and post-instruction file name according to the rubric.
Results – Comparing the overall average scores for each participant pre- and post-instruction intervention, we find that workshop participants, in general, improved in proficiency. The results of a Wilcoxon signed-rank test demonstrate that the difference between the pre- and post-test observations is statistically significant with a high effect size. In addition, a comparison of changes in pre- and post-test scores for each rubric element showed that participants grasped specific elements more easily (i.e., implementing an international standard for a date format) than others (i.e., applying information related to sequential versioning of files).
Conclusion – The results of this study indicate that developing short and targeted interventions in the context of RDM training is worthwhile. In addition, the findings demonstrate how quantitative evaluations of instructional interventions can pinpoint specific topics or activities requiring improvement or further investigation. Overall, RDM learning outcomes grounded in practical competencies may be achieved through applied exercises that demonstrate immediate improvement directly to participants.

The objective of this research is to determine the impact of dashboard characteristics on the use and usefulness of dashboards of Moroccan companies. In this paper, we will first present the theoretical foundations of our research. Then, following a hypothetico-deductive approach and a positivist positioning, an explanatory model of our two variables was proposed; “Characteristics of dashboards” and “Uses and usefulness of dashboards”. In this perspective, we adopted a quantitative methodology based on a questionnaire administered online to management controllers of Moroccan companies. And finally, we tested our model with 117 Moroccan companies. The collected data is analyzed by structural equation methods (PLS) on SMARTPLS. The results of this research work made it possible to validate the hypotheses which stipulate that there is an impact of the characteristics of the dashboards on the use and usefulness of the dashboards of Moroccan companies. This work enriches previous work on dashboards

Published: March 2024

Postępujący dynamicznie rozwój cywilizacyjny znacząco pogłębia antropopresję i modyfikuje środowisko. Z kolei wydłużające się okresy suszy skutkują niedoborami wody i powodują wahania oraz obniżanie się poziomów wód powierzchniowych i podziemnych.
Celem badań była ocena zasięgu tych zmian na obszarze miasta powiatowego Staszów, położonego w południowo-wschodniej części województwa świętokrzyskiego. Wahania poziomu wody w jeziorach, a zwłaszcza ich amplituda, częstotliwość, czas trwania są znaczącymi czynnikami wpływającymi na te ekosystemy. Ponadto jeziora są bardzo dobrym wskaźnikiem zmian klimatycznych, a poziomy ich zwierciadła odzwierciedlają zasobność wód terenów, w których te akweny istnieją. W opracowaniu zaprezentowano zmiany poziomów wód 12 niewielkich jezior staszowskich w latach 2011–2020, przy czym ciągłe obserwacje prowadzono od marca 2011 r. Zaobserwowano zróżnicowanie amplitud stanów wody od 16 cm (Duży Staw) do 127 cm (Jezioro Ciemne) i obniżenie poziomu wód. Jeziora te utworzyły się w formach krasu reprodukowanego. W analizowanej grupie akwenów odnotowano stan: wzrostu (1 jezioro), spadku (8 jezior) oraz braku wyraźnych tendencji zmian poziomu zwierciadła wody (3 jeziora). Najwyższym i stałym wzrostem poziomu wody charakteryzowało się Jezioro Ciemne (aż +87 cm), a najgłębszym spadkiem – Jezioro Przedpole (−90 cm) i Jezioro Odrodzone (−89 cm). Jeziora o różnym charakterze zmian poziomów wody, występowały nawet w akwenach położonych w bardzo niewielkich odległościach od siebie. Uzyskane wyniki z zakresu fluktuacji poziomu wody i ich zróżnicowanie w jeziorach wskazują na kluczową rolę czynników lokalnych nad klimatycznymi. Wśród czynników lokalnych miały wyraźny wpływ: wysokość lokalizacji nad poziomem morza, charakter akwenu (bezodpływowy, odpływowy, przepływowy) oraz działalność bobrów. Ponadto zasadnicze znaczenie wydaje się mieć wielkość i charakter zlewni zarówno powierzchniowej, jak i podziemnej oraz parametry mis jezior.

Background: The current study was undertaken to evaluate the clinical efficacy of cemented prosthetics for total hip replacement for management of hip dysplasia in dogs. Total hip arthroplasty will eliminate pain and, restore function of hip joint. Methods: The dogs with clinical signs of coxofemoral joint affections were diagnosed using standard hip extended ventrodorsal radiographs of pelvis. Those dogs which are not responded to the medical management, with severe degenerative changes and osteoarthritis were selected for surgical management for total hip replacement. The femoral stems used in this study were small (4) and Medium (2). The size of the acetabular cup used ranges from 20 to 22 mm outer diameter. The bone cement used was polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) low viscosity type bone cement (Simplex-P). Clinical evaluation of the treated dogs on 2nd day post operatively indicated functional outcome (on the basis of WOMAC score) as excellent in four dogs and good in 2 dogs as the mean scores of parameters was 1.0±0.36, 0.83±0.65, 0.83±0.40, 1.0±0.68, 0.50±0.34, 0.66±0.33, 1.50±0.50, 1.16±0.47, 0.50±0.34, 1.50±0.42, 2.0±0.51 and over all mean of functional outcome is 11.33± 4.06 out of 40 points, lower scores reflect better function than higher scores. Radiological and clinical assessment are excellent to good in four cases and poor in two cases, with mean score of 0, 0.83, 1.50±0.5,0,0,0, 1.16±0.40,0, 1.33±0.84. The mean score of radiological and clinical assessment was 4.88±1.85 out of 40 points, lesser score indicates effectiveness of the surgical procedure. The lamenessfrom grade V improved onby 45 days to grade I except one dog at grade II, by 60th day, all 5 dogs progressed to grade I and one dog to grade II. The post-operatively radiographic evaluation on day one revealed hip showing cup of the prosthesis into acetabulum. Result: Total hip replacement using cemented prosthetics for management of Hip dysplasia in dogs was found to be effective in dogs with more than 20 kg body weight and returned to normal limb function after 45th post operative day in 4 out of 6-dogs, whereas in other two dogs, there is a complication of loosening of acetabullar cup after 60 days, the complications will be addressed with uncemented implants.

Published: March 2024

In today's educational environment, it has become essential for both educators and students to acquire digital communication skills and competencies. This is driven by the growing incorporation of digital information technologies into teaching and learning methods. Primarily, these skills and competencies center around the capability to utilize diverse technologies and digital tools for the purpose of sharing information and facilitating knowledge transfer between educators and students. Conversely, communicative and social skills, as well as teaching methods, tend to receive less attention in recent studies. The goal of this research was to explore the opinions of teachers and students in digital communication in higher education about the importance of social skills and innovative teaching methods that are recognized in earlier literature (see Stronge, 2007) as the basis of an effective teaching process. A collaborative effort involving three international universities led to the creation and distribution of two online questionnaires. Each university administered two separate questionnaires, one targeting teaching staff (n = 70) and the other aimed at undergraduate students (n = 237). Data analysis using the SPSS software enabled the generation of a meaningful depiction of the data. The study revealed numerous findings. For instance, students from all three countries showed a highly positive attitude towards social skills and innovative teaching methods in digital communication during the teaching process, while teachers did not. This discrepancy is particularly evident between students and teachers in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Also, the age of students significantly affects the importance they attach to these aspects of the educational process, while gender does not.
Razvoj digitalne pismenosti unutar koncepta samoizražavanja učenika
Authors: Jorović Katarina N.
Published: March 2024

Tradicionalna pedagoška paradigma često zanemaruje identitete učenika, što dovodi do nepovezanosti školskog i vanškolskog konteksta. Savremeno shvatanje pismenosti naglašava snagu jezičkih iskustava učenika u nastavi pismenosti i važnost samoizražavanja, validacije identiteta, jezika, kulture, znanja i interesovanja u nastavi. Kako se u pedagogiji sve više prepoznaje značaj digitalnih tehnologija i njihova sveprisutnost u različitim facetama života, tako isto im pažnju posvećuju studije pismenosti, razmatrajući njihovu ulogu u razvoju pismenosti. Stoga, trebalo bi promišljati o nastavi samoizražavanja učenika u sferi digitalne pismenosti. U ovom radu ispitujemo spajanje ova dva koncepta, u cilju razvijanja identiteta učenika i sposobnosti za digitalnu pismenost kao osnovu za život, učenje i rad u savremenom društvu. Istražujemo 4D model razvoja digitalne pismenosti i načine konceptualizacije nastave i implikacije ovakve ideje. Polazimo od kreiranja nastave i aktivnosti koje se odnose na korišćenje digitalnih tehnologija, uzimajući pritom u obzir identitete učenika. Dalje, analiziramo raznovrsnost načina izražavanja koje nam digitalni kontekst omogućava i implikacije po razvoj učenika. Sagledavajući digitalne tehnologije kao način učestvovanja u različitim praksama i zajednicama diskutujemo o njihovom uticaju na identitet učenika. Razmatramo pristup nastavi koja bi razvijala kritičku pismenost u digitalnoj sferi. Naposletku, posvećujemo pažnju razvijanju digitalnog identiteta učenika.

A kulturális politika nem új keletű fogalom, felismerhető az időszámításunk előtti időszakban is, majd végigkísérhető a történelem folyamán egészen napjainkig. Kutatásának szükségességét és időszerűségét alátámasztja a kulturális életben mind jobban megnövekedett szereplők és jelenségek száma, amelyek állandó kihívásként hatnak a témát kutatókra. Branko Prnjat, a kulturális politika szerbiai úttörője nemcsak felismerte a fogalommal való foglalkozás szükségességet és indokoltságát, hanem megalapozta az egyetemi szinten való oktatását is. Általa jutott a kulturális politika olyan magas szintre, amely manapság mint tudatébredést definiálja, magába foglalja nemcsak az új értékek feltárását, hanem útmutató is egyben ezekhez az értékekhez. A többkultúrájú (multikulturális) közösség – amely ugyanakkor többnyelvű közösség is – teljes kibontakozása, identitásának megvalósulása csakis az államhatalom által gyakorolt kulturális politika egyenrangú alkalmazása, a kultúrák kölcsönös tiszteletben tartása alapján történhet meg.

A titkosítás alól feloldott CIA-dokumentumok tömege várja a kutatókat a Központi Hírszerző Ügynökség elektronikus oldalán (https://www.cia.gov/library/readingroom/home), mely az információszabadságról szóló amerikai törvényi rendelkezések következtében vált hozzáférhetővé az érdeklődők számára. A források többsége 2016 óta (illetve egy része már korábban is) online formában fenn van a világhálón, ennek ellenére a magyar (és külföldi) történettudomány eddig kevéssé foglalkozott elemzésükkel. Jelen írás bevezetés kíván lenni a hasonló jelentések olvasásához, tehát a historiográfiai-módszertani kontextus rövid felvázolása után a jelentésekből megismerhető, erősen szelektált és hírszerzői szempontból hasznosítható Újvidék képén keresztül mutatja be egy ilyen vizsgálat hasznosságát. Írásom feltárja, hogy a CIA milyen adatokhoz férhetett hozzá, és ebből milyen tudáskonstrukciót alkotott a nyugati döntéshozók számára, a hidegháború kezdeti, konfliktusokkal teli időszakában.
