Desconstrução e hospitalidade: entre a ética e a política
Authors: Zevallos Veronica
Published: August 2022

Nos discursos contemporâneos sobre hospitalidade as contribuições de Derrida e Levinas são extremamente pertinentes dada a relevância de suas discussões sobre o tema, especificamente, no contexto de um cenário internacional cada vez mais globalizado que diz respeito não tão somente a questões econômicas, modos de produção ou mudanças técnicas e tecnológicas, mas, principalmente no que diz respeito às relações interpessoais. Tal pensamento reduz drasticamente as relações de responsabilidade frente ao outro. Neste estudo pretende-se apontar se há ou não uma dimensão ética na desconstrução. A ênfase se constitui entre o absolutamente outro (em Levinas) e o outro irredutível (em Derrida). Mediante uma análise interpretativa das principais obras dos autores em questão – Derrida e Levinas – serão colocados em diálogo a desconstrução derridiana e o pensamento de Levinas salientando possíveis implicações ético-políticas do conceito de hospitalidade. Este estudo se justifica pela necessidade sempre urgente de repensar as condições de possibilidade da ética e da política, pensar outramente, não somente os limites impostos nas sociedades com relação à hospitalidade e acolhimento, mas explorar a própria possibilidade da relação ética.
Improving global competence in classroom-based experiential learning activities
Authors: Lee Juyoung , Kobia Caroline , Son Jihyeong
Published: August 2022

The purpose of this research was to develop learning activities to improve global competence for a classroom-based course in the field of clothing and textiles and explore how those activities affected the global competence of college students. To achieve this goal, the researchers proposed the following objectives: (a) develop learning activities on global competence and (b) explore the influences of newly proposed learning activities on the global competence of college students. The authors analyzed students’ reflective essays to identify themes through constant comparative analysis. The authors found participants learned about the Japanese culture through diverse aspects of global competence—affective, cognitive, and behavioral dimensions—throughout the semester via these learning activities. The authors also found informal writing could work as a starting point, where students were slowly exposed to a different culture, and reflective essays worked as a final summarizing phase where students could think further about their learning process related to global competence. This research is significant in terms of providing an empirical example of how to increase global competence in classroom-based courses. Additionally, scholars and teaching practitioners can gain insights from this study on how to improve global competence for the future workforce in a global economy.

Authors: Dhendup Sonam , Sherab Kezang
Published: August 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the normal functions of schools globally. Online learning is a new concept in Bhutan. Nonetheless, classes have begun using various online learning platforms to continue their operations during the pandemic. This study examined primary school teachers’ perceived information technology knowledge and proficiency. The participants of this study consisted of 124 primary teachers from two western districts of Bhutan. Data were collected using an online survey. The study’s findings suggested that although the majority of participants (98.2%) had access to personal digital devices, slow internet connection and high internet data subscription charges (60.7%) were cited as significant challenges. Findings also revealed that a small percentage of the participants, less than 12 (9.7%) teachers in this study preferred to teach entirely in an online learning environment. The results of multiple linear regression suggested that only technological pedagogical knowledge (TPK) [t = 2.68, p = .008, β = .236] and perceived information technology proficiency of teachers (PITP) [t = 3.55, p = .001, β = .306] were statistically significant predictors of technological knowledge (TK).
Teacher candidate self-efficacy and ability to teach literacy: A comparison of residency and traditional teacher preparation models
Authors: Mazzye Doreen L , Duffy Michelle , Lamb Richard
Published: August 2022

This comparative study explored self-efficacy and ability for scientifically-based literacy instruction between a traditional and residency model of teacher preparation. Pre-/post-survey data was collected using the Teachers’ Sense of Efficacy for Literacy Scale. Mentor teachers completed a modified version of the survey on candidates’ abilities. Data were analyzed using paired sample t-tests, independent sample t-tests, and a trend analysis. Results revealed that candidates in the Residency Model held higher levels of self-efficacy for literacy instruction than in the Traditional Model. Mentor teachers rated candidates in the Residency Model as more able to teach literacy than those in the Traditional Model. There was alignment amongst the mentor rating and the resident perception of ability. In the Traditional Model, the mentor and student teacher were not as aligned in their perspectives of student teacher ability to teach literacy. Teacher preparation programs should consider the potential of teacher Residency Models to prepare pre-service teachers for the use of the Science of Reading for teaching literacy.

Authors:   Laboratorio de Histología, Departamento de Bioanálisis, Universidad de Oriente, Flores Fernández Evelin Margarita , Bastardo Rosales Jhoanna Mariet , Albarado Ysasis Luzmila Sofía , Lobo Lobo Plubio Aníbal
Published: August 2022

Objective: To verify that urine collectors are not toxic to sperm. Methods: The toxicity of glass (control) and plastic (urine collector) containers with semen samples of good concentration and sperm motility was evaluated by studying sperm motility at intervals of 1 hour, at room temperature, for 4 hours, following guidelines of the fifth edition of the World Health Organization Manual for the processing of semen samples. The progressive motility between both types of containers (glass and plastic) was compared and the morphotintorial characteristics of the spermatozoa were evaluated with the modified fluorescence differential stain. Results: No statistically significant differences (p = 0.334) were found between the groups. Spermatozoa that emitted a green fluorescence were categorized as normal and presented a strong correlation (r = 1,000; p = 0.000); Whereas, yellow (r = -0.838, p = 0.009) and orange (r = 0.940, p = 0.000) stains were highly correlated with sperm abnormalities, highlighting that orange fluorescence had a high correlation (r = 0.940, p = 0.000) with head abnormalities. Conclusion: The plastic collector has no toxic effects on sperm, it satisfies the needs of collection of the semen sample. With modified fluorescence differential staining, green staining is associated with morphologically normal spermatozoa and yellow and orange stains are associated with abnormalities of the head, middle piece, and main piece of sperm.
The Evolution Of Financial Risk Management
Authors: Murat Tolga
Published: August 2022

Purpose: This paper aims to track the history of financial risk management and how this progress affected the evolution of financial risk management. In the first part of this paper, we will look at how risk is defined, the concept of risk management, and the transaction from risk philosophy to the risk culture. The second part examines the evolution of risk management and different models used in financial risk measurements, such as variance, covariance, standard deviation, and value at risk models. In the third part, the Bretton Woods system, its effects on the global financial system, and after the Bretton Woods system is studied. In the final cut, we conclude and present our recommendations for future studies. Methodology: This theoretical research will focus on the historical evolution of financial risk management and the financial tools used while measuring risk. The finance field has evolved with crises, technological developments, and globalization. While the finance field has been growing, how financial risks are defined, managed, and measured has also changed. In addition to these changes, the finance field was introduced with a new area called "blockchain" and new investment instruments called cryptocurrencies. Practical Implications: This theoretical research investigates the evolution of financial risk management from a historical perspective and argues that the current financial risk management tools are insufficient to project today's risks fully.
Can Voluntary Insurance Be A New Product In Bank-Led E-Banking: Statistical Analysis Of Customers’ Preferences In Bangladesh-Economy?
Authors: Rahman Akim M.
Published: August 2022

Purpose: In today’s modernized banking-services, customers compete for comparative time-saving-options and banking-service-providers compete for maximizing profits. In this win-win setup, many factors are unpredictable. These perceived risk (PR) factors have been undermining the vision of cashless-society country-wise such as Bangladesh. Banks can eliminate this issue by adopting Voluntary Insurance (VI) as a new product. But it raises question: how do customers feel about it? Methodology: This study uses a self-designed survey questionnaire, for conducting convenience sampling reliability analysis and tests the results using statistical analysis. Findings: Statistical analyses of customers’ preferences reveal that “age-group” and “occupation-group” of customers have different preferences. The result shows that demographic factors impact customers’ preferences for the new product. Practical Implications: The findings can attract more users by improving customer’s satisfaction, customer-base, banks benefits including reduction of operational-cost. Thus, the answer to the question posed in the title is: Yes. Thus, this effort brings the findings of the Survey-Opinions to the attentions of bank-leaderships and policymakers so that the VI becomes a product in bank-led e-banking services, which can be an example in economy country-wise.
Can Voluntary Insurance Be A New Product In Bank-Led E-Banking: Statistical Analysis Of Customers’ Preferences In Bangladesh-Economy?
Authors: Atalay Ahmet
Published: August 2022

Purpose: The purpose of the present study, which was based on the increasing relationship between sports and the environment and the importance of this relationship, was to calculate the carbon footprint of Sarıkamış Ski Facilities in the city of Kars, Turkey. To do this purpose, an answer was sought to the following study question: What is the carbon footprint of Sarıkamış Ski Facilities? Methodology: The study was conducted within the scope of quantitative research methods design, which are used frequently in social sciences in recent years. The amount of electricity consumed on the cable car line in Sarıkamış Ski Facilities in Kars and the natural gas consumption amounts of the three hotels that have the highest bed capacity and overnight stays in the hotels area were used as the dataset in the study. To answer the study question, the carbon dioxide emission amount (carbon footprint) of the ski Facilities was calculated by using the calculation methodology (Tier 1 Method) that was put forward by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Results/Findings: The carbon dioxide emission (carbon footprint) occurring because of the natural gas consumption of three accommodation facilities and the electricity consumption of the cable car lines on the ski slopes in the 2022 ski season in Sarıkamış Ski Facilities was calculated as 12.140.58 tons. According to these calculations, 86% of the carbon footprint of the ski facilities occurred because of electricity consumption. This can be associated with the increasing demand in Sarıkamış Ski Facilities and the intense use of cable car lines to cover this demand. These results, which were limited to Sarıkamış Ski Facilities in Kars in Turkey, indicate that it is necessary to turn to renewable energy sources in Sarıkamış Ski Facilities. Also, it can be argued that the increasing demands on skiing should be covered in an environmentally friendly manner with increasing awareness of environmentally friendly energy. It is inevitable to develop sustainable environmental and sports policies to resolve environmental problems such as climate change, global warming, and carbon footprint. This study, which was limited to only Sarıkamış Ski Facilities, is expected to prepare the ground for a study throughout Turkey, and it is also aimed to help the development of an environmentally friendly sports concept in Turkey.

Funding and priorities for technology development today determine the terrain for digital battles tomorrow, and they provide the arsenals for both attackers and defenders. Unfortunately, researchers and strategists disagree on which technologies will ultimately be most beneficial and which cause more harm than good. This report provides three examples showing that, while the future of technology is impossible to predict with certainty, there is enough empirical data and mathematical theory to have these debates with more rigor.
Comparing the Effects of Cookbook and Non-Cookbook Based Lab Activities In a Calculus-Based Introductory Physics Course
Authors: Seyed Fadaei Azita
Published: August 2022

I have compared the effects of Cookbook based lab activities with the impacts of doing lab inquiry based on a small introductory engineering physics course. Performance in lab activities that did and did not require the Cookbook procedure was compared using a final questionnaire from the participating students in that course. The population of students who did the lab in each scenario was the same because they enrolled in the same course. In the course, I planned five lab activities of three different types. The first type, which I call “Cookbook” activities (CB) were prepared and then completed by students.  The second type of activities, which I call” Non- Cookbook” (NCB) were inquiry-based and orally guide. The final activity type was called “Both” and was a combination of two other activities. I investigated the activities in two dimensions: “scientific skills” and “general skills”. The results for scientific skills showed in NCB “Predicting” have improved. In CB, “Measuring the quantity” and “Sorting/classifying” have positive points of improving scientific skills. For general skills, in NCB, “Recalling concepts” and “Conceptual understanding” were improved. In CB, “Conceptual understanding” and “Scientific writing skills” and “Self-efficacy” were improved. “Writing the lab report” is a tough skill in NCB, while it is easy for CB.

Lessons of the New International Economic Order for the Contemporary World Economy
Authors: Svetličič Marjan
Published: August 2022

Although the new international economic
order (NIEO) has mostly been assessed as a failure, its
ideas still seem relevant in today’s crisis environment.
The new context clearly shows that the existing liberal
international order is ineffective and calls for deep
changes like in the times of the developing countries’
fight for the NIEO. The article considers whether its
principles remain of relevance today, which ones have
been amended and which should be newly introduced,
all based on NIEO-related lessons. Dilemmas between
international law or a rules-based order as a framework for global governance and whether the proposed
new inclusive global economic order is to be based on
values (and if so, which) are evaluated.

RESEARCH ISSUES IN THE HIGHER EDUCATION FIELD
IN TIMES OF CHALLENGED GLOBALISATION
Authors: Fink-Hafner Danica , Hafner-Fink Mitja , Dagen Tamara
Published: August 2022

The article examines the deliberation of
higher education (HE) scholars and practitioners on
research issues in the HE field, which has taken into
account the complexity of current trends of deglobalisation and changing characteristics of globalisation.
More precisely, the article offers a systematic review of
the ideas developed by focus group participants (FGPs)
from different parts of the world while debating internationalisation, globalisation and Europeanisation
with respect to the field of HE. These FGPs agreed that:
1) theoretical definitions used by academics and practitioners are currently socially constructed in a biased
way (in favour of the Anglo-North American point of
view); 2) academic research (notably conceptual definitions) must better take into account the issues contextually and dynamically across time and space; and
3) that HE research is in the stage when a more theoretically refined and a methodologically stronger new
global wave of empirical research is required for further
advancement of theorising and practitioners’ work.

EXPLORING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN
GOVERNMENT INSTITUTIONAL SUPPORT
AND EXPORT STRATEGIC PERFORMANCE
Authors: TAKY Lydia Nyankom , NAIDOO Vannie , DOGBE Courage Simon Kofi
Published: August 2022

The study presented in the article examined
the mediating role played by internationalisation in
both government financial support–export strategic
performance and government non-financial support–
export strategic performance relationships. The moderating role of a strategic alliance in the relationships
between government financial support and degree of
internationalisation, and between government nonfinancial support and degree of internationalisation,
was also considered. The study entailed a cross-sectional survey and included 301 indigenous export firms in
Ghana. The reliability and validity of the data was tested using confirmatory factor analysis, with structural
equation modelling as the primary means of analysis,
run using Amos (v.23). It was concluded that both government financial support and non-financial support
had a direct positive influence on export strategic performance. These relationships were partially mediated
by the degree of internationalisation. Strategic alliance
positively moderated the relationships between government financial support and degree of internationalisation, and also between government non-financial support and degree of internationalisation.

Stanovanjsko-bivanjska problematika mladih v Sloveniji se pogosto izpostavlja kot eden izmed
ključnih problemov mladih, a le redko v okviru drugega, za mlade in družbo prav tako ključnega področja
– področja zdravja. Glavni namen pričujočega članka
zato je, da se v okviru celostne analize poti na reprezentativnem vzorcu slovenskih mladih, starih med 15 in 29
let, preveri, ali in kako so stanovanjski status, bivanjske
razmere in strah pred stanovanjsko problematiko povezani z oceno stresa in zdravja pri mladih. Ker pretekle
študije kažejo, da so razlike v stanovanjsko-bivanjskem
položaju mladih pogostokrat odraz razlik v njihovem
ekonomskem položaju, je bila v analizo vključena
še ocena ekonomskega položaja družine. Rezultati
pokažejo, da obstojijo statistično značilne posredne in
neposredne vezi med ekonomskim položajem družine,
bivanjskimi razmerami in strahom pred stanovanjsko
problematiko, ki se statistično značilno povezuje z občutenjem stresa, ta pa z oceno zdravja mladih. Pokaže se
še, da so bivanjske razmere tudi neposredno povezane
z oceno zdravja med mladimi.

Microclimatic field measurements to support microclimatological modelling with ENVI-met for an urban study area in Cologne
Authors: Eingrüber Nils , Korres Wolfgang , Schneider Karl
Published: August 2022

Abstract. Cities are particularly affected by climate change
impacts. Due to global warming, the frequency and intensity of summer heat
events increases for many cities around the globe. Urban climatological
studies have shown significant positive trends in the number of hot days and
tropical nights. Heat stress is an important health as well as economic
risk. Thus, urban planning needs to adapt to climate change. This requires a
sound scientific analysis of different adaptation measures and management
options, which must be based on appropriate data, models and scenarios to
assess their suitability and efficacy. The goal of this paper is to assess
the suitability of a low cost weather station network consisting of 33
NETATMO weather sensors and ultrasonic anemometers to measure air
temperature, relative air humidity, wind speed and wind direction of a 16 ha
study area in Cologne with high temporal and spatial resolution to support
microclimatological modelling. The temperature and humidity sensors were
calibrated against a research grade reference sensor under laboratory
conditions. In addition, a research grade meteorological station (Campbell
Sci.) was set up in the study area as a reference. The NETATMO sensors were
placed to identify local microclimatic effects due to different surface
types, vegetation and building structures. Using descriptive statistical
analyses and pairwise comparisons, significant differences in the
microclimatic conditions of the various sites were found, which can clearly
be attributed to specific small scale microclimate factors. Significant
differences were particularly identified comparing an avenue and a narrow
street as well as a backyard and an urban park area. The sensors proved to
provide data reliably and with suitable quality to measure microclimatic
effects. The choice of sensors lends itself well for citizen participation,
needed to facilitate climate change adaptation. In our further research, the
data will be used as reference data for microclimatological modelling with
ENVI-met investigating particularly options of mitigating climate change
effects.
A new global surface temperature reconstruction for the Last Glacial Maximum
Authors: Annan James D. , Hargreaves Julia C. , Mauritsen Thorsten
Published: August 2022

Abstract. We present a new reconstruction of surface air temperature and sea surface temperature for the Last Glacial Maximum. The method blends model fields and sparse proxy-based point estimates through a data assimilation approach. Our reconstruction updates that of Annan and Hargreaves (2013), using the full range of general circulation model (GCM) simulations which contributed to three generations of the PMIP database, three major compilations of gridded sea surface temperature (SST) and surface air temperature (SAT) estimates from proxy data, and an improved methodology based on an ensemble Kalman filter. Our reconstruction has a global annual mean surface air temperature anomaly of -4.5±0.9 ∘C relative to the pre-industrial climate. This is slightly colder than the previous estimate of Annan and Hargreaves (2013), with an upwards revision on the uncertainty due to different methodological assumptions. It is, however, substantially less cold than the recent reconstruction of Tierney et al. (2020). We show that the main reason for this discrepancy is in the choice of prior. We recommend the use of the multi-model ensemble of opportunity as potentially offering a credible prior, but it is important that the range of models included in the PMIP ensembles represent the main sources of uncertainty as realistically and comprehensively as practicable if they are to be used in this way.
Using data and model to infer climate and environmental changes during the Little Ice Age in tropical West Africa
Authors: Lézine Anne-Marie , Catrain Maé , Villamayor Julián , Khodri Myriam
Published: August 2022

Abstract. Here we present hydrological and vegetation paleo-data extracted from 28 sites in West Africa from 5° S to 19° N and the past1000/PMIP4 IPSL-CM6A-LR climate model simulations covering the 850–1850 CE period to document the environmental and climatic changes that occurred during the Little Ice Age (LIA). The comparison between paleo-data and model simulations shows a clear contrast between the area spanning the Sahel and the Savannah in the North, characterized by widespread drought, and the equatorial sites in the South, where humid conditions prevailed. Particular attention was paid to the Sahel, whose climatic evolution was characterized by a progressive drying trend between 1250 and 1850 CE. Three major features are highlighted: (1) the detection of two early warning signals around 1170 and 1240 CE preceding the onset of the LIA drying trend; (2) an irreversible tipping point at 1800–1850 CE characterized by a dramatic rainfall drop and a widespread environmental degradation in the Sahel; and (3) a succession of drying events punctuating the LIA, the major of which was dated around 1600 CE. The climatic long-term evolution of the Sahel is associated with a gradual southward displacement of the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone induced by the radiative cooling impacts of major volcanic eruptions that have punctuated the last millennium.
SENEGAL SHOOTERS AND THE SLAVE TRADE ON THE ISLAND OF GOREE AND THE DRAMA OF FRENCH COLONIALISM IN SENEGAL
Authors: ÖZKÖSE Kadir
Published: August 2022

Senegal, an important part of the Islamic world, is a remarkable geography of Islamic culture and civilization with its Muslim presence constituting 95% of its population. It is a country where sectarian divisions have not been seen throughout history, representing the unifying spirit of Sufi tradition instead of conflict culture, and educating important names of Ahl as-Sunnah scholars. The Toucouleur ulama, who draw attention with their scientific studies, have dominated the dynamics of Islamic thought in the region for centuries. This elite position of Senegal was tried to be eliminated with the arrival of colonial powers in the region. In our study, the dimensions of the destruction carried out by the occupation forces in Senegal are discussed. The sad picture of the slave trade on the island of Goree, the formation of the Senegalese Shooters, the desire to put obstacles in the life of faith and worship in Islam, and the direct and indirect administration experiences of France in Senegal are discussed.

Este texto problematiza a realização de avaliações em larga escala para o público alvo da educação especial (PAEE). Para tanto, inicialmente, trata-se do tema das avaliações em larga escala e o modo como elas se inseriram como balizadoras da qualidade da educação no contexto internacional e nacional. Aborda-se de forma mais específica a Prova Brasil. Na sequência, apresenta-se o modo como a inclusão destes estudantes vêm sendo realizada por meio da Política Nacional da Educação Especial na Perspectiva da Educação (PNEEPEI). Por fim, aborda-se como tem sido o processo de inclusão dos estudantes PAEE no dia a dia das escolas e de que maneira eles têm sido incluídos ou não, quando se trata da realização da Prova Brasil. Os dados apresentados foram coletados por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas com professoras, pedagogas e diretoras de três escolas de uma rede pública localizada no planalto norte catarinense. Usou-se a análise temática como método de análise dos dados. Conclui-se que a perspectiva inclusiva tratada no PNEEPEI vai ao encontro dos aspectos relacionados às avaliações em larga escala, especificamente a Prova Brasil. Ademais, destaca-se o quanto a lógica da prova é perversa com docentes e estudantes, especialmente aqueles que constituem o público alvo da educação especial.

Effect of Household Cooking Energy Poverty on Child Respiratory Health in Pakistan
Authors: Qurat-ul-Ann Abre- Rehmat , Mahfooz Sana
Published: August 2022

Household cooking energy poverty can lead to serious health concerns for the household members generally and children under age five specifically. To attain sustainable development goal 3 of ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being for all of all ages, Pakistan has to strive for development in the child health sector. The recent pandemic has amplified the significance of this issue many folds. This study aims to identify the effect of household cooking energy poverty on the respiratory health of children under the age of five using Pakistan demographic and health survey data, 2017-18. 26.4 percent of the sample households are cooking energy poor in Pakistan. Child health is at greater risk in Balochistan and Gilgit Baltistan due to a greater multidimensional incidence of cooking energy poverty. Rural areas with a higher incidence of energy poverty are also vulnerable in terms of child wellbeing. Negative binomial regression analysis estimates the effect of household cooking energy poverty on number of children with respiratory issues in Pakistan. Empirical results suggest that a one-unit increase in household cooking energy poverty in Pakistan leads to a significant increase in the expected log (count) of number of children with respiratory infection by 0.21.  Household cooking energy poverty directly affects respiratory health of children under age five in Pakistan. The study recommends that through the development and adoption of the use of modern stoves and clean fuels, improvement in the indoor environment and health of children in Pakistan can be attained.
A PROPOSED ASSESSMENT TOOL FOR SHARIA-COMPLIANT EQUITY CROWDFUNDING PROJECTS UTILIZING TOPSIS

On the market, the number of newly founded fintech companies that involve sharia-compliant businesses has increased recently, one of them being the sharia-crowdfunding company. The company targets countries with large Muslim populations, such as Indonesia and Malaysia. Since the sharia compliance is unique, and thus it influences decision-making in a business. Therefore, we are driven to propose and develop an assessment tool to assist the investment signaling process for the sharia-compliant equity crowdfunding projects on Platform X. Platform X is one of the pioneers of real estate Islamic crowdfunding platforms investing in sharia-compliant real estate projects in Southeast Asia's emerging countries. The firm must examine new projects locally for each newly created branch country as the firm aims to open new branches in some predominantly Muslim countries. However, each newly founded branch country lacks a mature and uniform assessment tool for sharia-based projects, resulting in glaring problems in the 'portability' and time-consuming problem of assessing the projects. Therefore, this research provides a technique for assessing sharia-equity crowd fundraising decisions using a multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA), namely TOPSIS. We combine the concept of equity crowdfunding, Islamic principles, and Sharia compliance to develop a tailored assessment tool for sharia-based projects. As a result, we present both theoretical and managerial implications, and we find that the assessment tool is robust as the evaluation result for the portability aspect and the fast computational time were successfully examined through a simple experiment.
