AIs @ School: the perception of the actors of the learning processes
Authors:   University of Rome Tor Vergata - Dip. SPFS, Giovannella Carlo , Cianfriglia Licia , Giannelli Antonello
Published: January 2025

At a historical juncture where AIs have become a ‘must’ in every form of communication and every form of activity, we have explored the perception that the actors of the educational processes – students, teachers, principals, and parents – have about the bouquet of technologies that are included in the definition of AI. Despite the discussions that have been stimulated at every level and the copious documentation produced (reviewed in the first section), the perceived level of information on the topic is below the suffi-ciency and seems to be fairly similar in all categories. Parents appear to be more inclined toward the use of AIs in educational processes in comparison to the actual use made by the students and by the teachers. The pros and cons of AIs perceived by the participants have been also investigated by the survey: participants appear to be more sensitive to critical aspects affecting, and potentialities connected with, the immediate outcomes of AIs use, ra-ther than the socially relevant consequences. The use of AIs seems confined to the generative ones. The purposes for which they are used, with a few ex-ceptions, appear to be fairly trivial and predictable: carrying out searches, generating texts and translations, generating tests and their resolutions and, in rare case, generating images. Use of Ais aimed at stimulating critical re-flection is rare, also among teachers.
Echo: A crowd-sourced Romanian speech dataset.
Authors: Ungureanu Remus-Dan , Dascalu Mihai
Published: January 2025

Romanian is the seventh most popular European language, with around 30 million speakers worldwide. Despite its popularity, the available speech resources are limited. As a result, there are few models that transcribe Romanian well, most of them being multilingual models that also cover less popular languages. Echo is a crowd-sourcing platform that has collected more than 300 hours of speech from various contributors. In this study, we document how a large speech dataset enables researchers to train automatic speech recognition, speaker verification, and diarization models to automatically process students’ notes. We publicly release both the dataset and the Whisper-based baseline model as open-source.
The Problems of Linguistic Analysis of Elliptical Sentences in Modern English
Authors:   Foreign Languages Department, University of Economics and Pedagogy, Uzbekistan, Hilola Eshonqulov Ravshan, Jurayeva
Published: January 2025

Elliptical sentences, characterized by the omission of contextually inferable elements, present unique challenges in linguistic analysis. These constructions, though prevalent in both spoken and written discourse, require careful consideration of syntactic, pragmatic, and cognitive factors for accurate interpretation. This paper explores the complexities of elliptical sentences in Modern English, drawing on various linguistic theories and methodological approaches, including transformational-generative grammar, pragmatic inference, and corpus-based analysis. The findings indicate that ellipsis is widely used in informal communication and advertising, while its interpretation often relies on contextual cues, leading to potential ambiguity. The discussion highlights the difficulties posed by regional and stylistic variations, as well as the implications for natural language processing and language teaching. The paper concludes by emphasizing the need for a multidisciplinary approach to fully grasp the intricacies of elliptical constructions and their broader applications in linguistic research and education.

Published: January 2025

International cooperation is essential in designing effective regulations and policies to deal with the narcotics problem in Indonesia. This article was written to explain how to handle narcotics problems in Indonesia through international cooperation in narcotics law. This article also aims to explore the concept of international cooperation policy in efforts to prevent and eradicate narcotics, both in terms of reducing demand and reducing supply. A nation's position in the international system, typically defined by its material power, determines the scope and goals of its foreign policy. In this article, we discuss the concept of international cooperation in developing effective policies to deal with the narcotics problem in Indonesia. This research uses normative legal research methods and qualitative empirical research in the form of evaluative research to analyze applicable positive law. The conclusion is that Indonesia must participate in open international dialogue to overcome the narcotics problem in Indonesia. Apart from that, Indonesia also needs to strengthen cooperation with other countries and increase collaboration in law enforcement. There is a need for government representatives who are specifically tasked with dealing with narcotics problems to reduce bureaucracy that hampers cooperation between countries and accelerates joint efforts in combating cross-border narcotics trafficking.
PERBANDINGAN PENGATURAN TINDAK PIDANA PENODAAN AGAMA DI INDONESIA DENGAN PAKISTAN (TINJAUAN BERDASARKAN MIXED LAW SYSTEM)
Authors: Silaban Marthin Adolf Alexander
Published: January 2025

Indonesia and Pakistan are presently among the nations that criminalize blasphemy. Both nations are the largest Muslim-majority countries globally. Notably, the regulation of blasphemy varies significantly between the two countries. This study was conducted in a normative legal framework. The findings reveal that the disparities in blasphemy regulations between Indonesia and Pakistan are influenced by each country's legal heritage and historical context. Although both are classified as mixed legal systems, Indonesia's legal framework is dominated by civil law, whereas Pakistan legal system is dominantly shaped by Islamic law along with the common law system derived from England. In Indonesia, blasphemy is addressed under Article 156a KUHP, UU PNPS, and UU ITE, imposing penalties of imprisonment and/or fines. In contrast, Pakistan's legislation comprises numerous articles that specifically criminalize blasphemy across various classifications, imposing severe penalties including the death penalty, life imprisonment, and specific terms of incarceration, often accompanied by fines. In comparison, Indonesia's criminal act of religious blasphemy aligns more closely with human rights principles and is less discriminatory compared to Pakistan Penal Code

Background and purpose: Cardiac mitochondria dysfunction plays a central pathophysiological role in the abnormal glucose metabolism in the heart and in diabetic cardiomyopathy. The present study evaluated the effects of flavonoid glycoside naringin treatment on the interconnection between changes in cardiac mitochondria oxygen consumption, membrane potential and mitochondrial Ca2+ sensitivity during type 1 diabetes. Experimental approach: Type 1 diabetes was induced by an intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (40 mg/kg) in rats and islet morphology, glucose and insulin levels, changes in heart mitochondria respiration, membrane potential, spontaneous and Ca2+ - induced mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) pore opening were evaluated. Key results: Diabetes resulted in typical signs of hyperglycemia, which were accompanied by a rat cardiac mitochondria dysfunction, manifested by decreased V2 and V3 rates of oxygen consumption, while the initial membrane potential value remained unchanged. The rates of Ca2+-induced MPT pore opening and Ca2+-induced membrane potential dissipation in isolated mitochondria decreased under type 1 diabetes. The naringin treatment (40 mg/kg of the body weight, 4 weeks) partially recovered impaired cardiac mitochondria respiration, decreased spontaneous and increased Ca2+-induced MPT pore opening, improved pancreatic islets morphology and dystrophic changes, lowered glycated hemoglobin and blood plasma urea, and decreased the oxidative stress level with glucose or insulin concentrations remaining unchanged in diabetic animals. Conclusions: Naringin administration demonstrated beneficial effects during type 1 diabetes and represents a promising therapeutic (or nutriceutical) approach for diabetes treatment.

Authors:   Lucian Blaga University of Sibiu, BOGOSLOV Ioana Andreea , STOICA Eduard Alexandru ,   Lucian Blaga University of Sibiu
Published: January 2025

The current reality shapes the landscape of modern society, where human activities are increasingly integrated with AI technologies. A relatively recent branch of artificial intelligence, generative AI, has shifted paradigms across various spheres of actions, particularly in recent years, with the emergence and development of tools such as ChatGPT. The educational field has not been immune to the influence of these technologies, which have been adopted almost naturally and seamlessly by the key stakeholders involved in teaching and learning processes. However, to harness the potential of generative AI effectively, maximizing its benefits while minimizing challenges or potential negative effects, a detailed exploration of this phenomenon becomes essential.Through a less conventional approach in existing research, the present study focuses on the adoption of generative AI by teachers in the teaching processes, employing the so-called thing ethnography method to interact with ChatGPT. The research findings emphasize potential strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats associated with the adoption of ChatGPT as part of teachers practices, with the tool itself serving as both the central subject of the research and the interviewed subject. Moreover, through a detailed examination of interactions with the subject under study - namely, the chatbot being examined - certain limitations of the tool were observed. The insights gained from this analysis could help guide strategies and future directions for integrating generative AI into teaching activities and, more broadly, into educational processes as a whole.

Published: January 2025

Studying the behaviour of the consumer of tourist products and services has been and will remain a challenge, given that a multitude of diverse influencing factors impact it continuously, which, in addition to heterogeneous behaviours that exert pressure on the adaptation capacity of the tourist service offer, has a significant impact on the community, in particular, as well as on the environment, in general.Consequently, the phenomenon of overtourism tends to expand alarmingly on the most visited tourist destinations globally. Finding solutions to prevent the negative effects and hostile attitudes generated by this phenomenon has become a major concern for local communities and for international organizations.This paper thus aims to explain, on the one hand, the particularities of consumer behaviour of tourist products and services in the contemporary era, and on the other hand, it aims to analyse the phenomenon of overtourism using information from secondary data sources, which allow for the outline of a comprehensive and complex picture of this phenomenon. The overarching purpose of the approach is to identify strategies for sustainable tourism development so as to minimize the costs brought about by this phenomenon on the population and the Planet.

Published: January 2025

Consumer behaviour changes have been happening all the time throughout the development of modern society, but it seams that no changes have come as rapid as the changes that have occurred in the last decade or so. At the same time the fast-paced living, the economic, medical and military crises of the last ten years have powerfully impacted the consumer behaviour of individuals. The current paper represents on one side a brief literature review of some of the changes that have occurred when discussing the issue of consumer behaviour, and on the other hand it points out some secondary data analysis based on statistics about the changes in consumer behaviour, the values and interest of individuals of the last years. The literature review has shown that even if the classical definitions of the consumer behaviour concepts are still in place, the current market conditions are forcing us to consider other associated topics like: Behavioural Deviations, Sustainability and Environmental Concerns, Moral and Ethical Dimensions, Consumer Dominance etc. While the practical component presents some results that cand be drivers for further consumer behaviour research, to understand the main change factors better and to potentially predict future behaviours.

Published: January 2025

The present study sets out to explore the application of lean governance principles to streamline state ministries' bureaucratic structures, with a focus on reducing waste and optimizing workflow. It is hypothesized that such an approach would enhance the responsiveness of public services, thereby addressing the inefficiencies in decision-making and resource wastage that are often observed in bloated bureaucratic structures, where ministries frequently have overlapping authority. A normative juridical research method was used to foster relevant regulations and assess the compatibility of the concept within the context of government administration. The findings indicate that lean governance can reduce redundancy and improve efficiency through authority restructuring, simplifying bureaucratic processes, and strengthened inter-agency coordination. The implications of this study include the need for regulatory adjustments to support authority restructuring and enhanced information technology to improve transparency and accountability. Consistent implementation of lean governance is expected to create a more responsive and adaptive government, ultimately fostering greater public trust in the public sector.

Published: January 2025

This study examines the intersection of justice within the framework of business law by analyzing its effectiveness and implementation in Indonesia, Vietnam, and Ghana three nations navigating the challenges of globalization. Justice is conceptualized through the lens of fairness, efficiency, and inclusivity in legal frameworks. By adopting a comparative normative legal research method, this study identifies the critical factors influencing business law implementation: regulatory quality, institutional capacity, political stability, and technological infrastructure. Findings reveal disparities in achieving justice due to corruption, bureaucratic inefficiencies, and weak enforcement mechanisms. While Indonesia grapples with regulatory overlap and decentralized governance challenges, Vietnam demonstrates progressive reforms but struggles with legal clarity. Ghana, despite leveraging political stability, faces significant limitations in infrastructure and enforcement. The study highlights the need for enhanced legal certainty, equitable stakeholder protections, and institutional reforms to align domestic business laws with global standards. Addressing these disparities can foster a more just and competitive business environment, ensuring fair treatment for all economic actors.

Understanding Theory through a Metaphor: Leadership is like ‘Driving a Car’
Authors: Samli Emre
Published: January 2025

Abstract concepts, while readily described, can be difficult to truly grasp. Fortunately, strategies like the use of metaphors can bridge this understanding gap. This paper explores the claim by 21st-century management and leadership scholars that effective leaders must consider polarities. By drawing an analogy to driving, it clarifies the crucial ‘both/and’ perspective necessary for navigating the complex and often opposing forces. Just as driving requires constant adjustments—a driver cannot exclusively choose one action but skilfully navigates between multiple inputs to reach their destination—leaders face continuous tensions. These include (but not limited to) individual autonomy versus team cohesion and stability versus change. Leaders cannot simply choose one side of these polarities; they must integrate them, recognising the value of both. This ‘both/and’ approach fosters greater flexibility, adaptability, and ultimately, more effective leadership. The paper introduces the ‘both/and’ perspective, including the Competing Values Framework (CVF), developed to address the challenges of complex and rapidly changing environments. By clarifying the fundamentals of driving and establishing a clear link between driving and leading, this paper demonstrates the broader value of metaphors as a powerful tool in teaching and education. Furthermore, acknowledging the multiplicity of definitions of leadership —as Stodgill remarked “There are almost as many different definitions of leadership as there are people who have tried to define it” — this paper offers its own perspective.

Keywords: leadership, both/and perspective, driving a car
