A Zero-Cross Detection Algorithm for Cavity-Length Interrogation of Fiber-Optic Fabry–Perot Sensors
Authors: Ma Zhibo , Song Zechen , Huang Xirui , Guo Tongxin , Yuan Weizheng , Chen Haibin , Zhang Tianyang , Wang Wei
Published: September 2019

A zero-cross detection algorithm was proposed for the cavity-length interrogation of fiber-optic Fabry–Perot (FP) sensors. The method can avoid the inaccuracy of peak determination in the conventional peak-to-peak method for the cavity-length interrogation of fiber-optic FP sensors caused by the slow variation of the spectral power density in peak neighboring regions. Both simulations and experiments were carried out to investigate the feasibility and performance of the zero-cross detection algorithm. Fiber-optic FP sensors with cavity lengths in the range of 150–1000 μm were successfully interrogated with a maximum error of 0.083 μm.
Design of a Portable Orthogonal Surface Acoustic Wave Sensor System for Simultaneous Sensing and Removal of Nonspecifically Bound Proteins
Authors: Li Shuangming , Bhethanabotla Venkat R.
Published: September 2019

One challenge for current surface acoustic wave (SAW) biosensors is reducing nonspecific adsorption. A device propagating Rayleigh and shear horizontal surface acoustic waves in orthogonal directions fabricated in ST quartz has the capability of achieving simultaneous detection and nonspecific binding (NSB) protein removal. Current measurement methods for a SAW sensor system based on this device require large-size and expensive equipment such as a vector network analyzer (VNA), signal generator, and frequency counter, which are not suitable for portable, especially point-of-care, applications. In this work, a portable platform based on a direct digital synthesizer (DDS) is investigated for the orthogonal SAW sensor, integrating signal synthesis, gain control, phase/amplitude measurement, and data processing in a small, portable electronic system. This prototype was verified for both stability and repeatability, and the results matched very well with VNA measurements. Finally, system performance in real-time sensing and NSB removal was evaluated.
Early Crack Detection of Reinforced Concrete Structure Using Embedded Sensors
Authors: Chakraborty Joyraj , Katunin Andrzej , Klikowicz Piotr , Salamak Marek
Published: September 2019

The damage in reinforced concrete (RC) structures can be induced either by the dynamic or static load. The inspection technologies available today have difficulty in detecting slowly progressive, locally limited damage, especially in hard-to-reach areas in the superstructure. The four-point bending test on the benchmark RC structure was used as a test of the quality and sensitivity of the embedded sensors. It allowed assessment of whether any cracking and propagation that occurs with the embedded sensors can be detected. Various methods are used for the analysis of the ultrasonic signals. By determining the feature from the ultrasonic signals, the changes in the whole structure are evaluated. The structural degradation of the RC benchmark structure was tested using various non-destructive testing methods to obtain a comprehensive decision about structural condition. It is shown that the ultrasonic sensors can detect a crack with a probability of detection of 100%, also before it is visible by the naked eye and other techniques, even if the damage is not in the direct path of the ultrasonic wave. The obtained results confirmed that early crack detection is possible using the developed methodology based on embedded and external sensors and advanced signal processing.
Antioxidant and Hepatoprotective Effect of Cajanus cajan in N-Nitrosodiethylamine-Induced Liver Damage
Authors: Iweala Emeka Eze Joshua , Evbakhavbokun Winifred Osa , Maduagwu Emmanuel Ndubisi
Published: September 2019

N-Nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA) is a nitrosamine derivative with carcinogenic and mutagenic properties which can be found in tobacco smoke, meat and various food products. This study examined the antioxidant and hepatoprotective potential of Cajanus cajan (C. cajan) with respect to hepatotoxicity in male Wistar rats. Administration of NDEA induced hepatotoxicity at 200 mg/kg while C. cajan was administered (200, 400 and 800 mg/kg) for 28 days. NDEA-induced hepatotoxicity significantly (p ≤ 0.05) increased alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and malondialdehyde (MDA) and significantly (p ≤ 0.05) decreased reduced glutathione (GSH), albumin (ALB), glutathione S-transferase (GST), catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD). C. cajan-treated groups were seen to have significantly (p ≤ 0.05) decreased ALT and AST and significantly (p < 0.05) increased ALB, GST, GSH, SOD and CAT. The NDEA-treated group also showed a marginal increase in body weight and a significant (p ≤ 0.05) increase in liver weight. The C. cajan treated groups showed a significant (p ≤ 0.05) increase and decrease respectively in body and liver weights. Histopathological changes also substantiated NDEA-induced hepatotoxicity and the hepatoprotective effect of C. cajan on the liver. The results indicate that C. cajan has the potential to ameliorate NDEA-induced hepatotoxicity.
Mutual Involvement in Families Living with Type 2 Diabetes: Using the Family Toolbox to Address Challenges Related to Knowledge, Communication, Support, Role Confusion, Everyday Practices and Mutual Worries
Authors: Grabowski Dan , Reino Maria Beatriz Rodriguez , Helms Andersen Tue
Published: September 2019

Family involvement plays a key role in diabetes management. Challenges related to type 2 diabetes (T2D) often affect the whole family, and relatives are at increased risk of developing diabetes themselves. Creating family involvement in families living with T2D is a complex matter. This article studies potential effects of working with dialogue tools specifically developed to create family involvement. The data consist of 18 semi-structured family interviews. The data were analyzed using radical hermeneutics and theories on family identity and healthcare authenticity. The analysis revealed five themes: (1) Working with the tools created better and broader intra-familial involvement; (2) the tools enabled new roles and self-understandings for all family members; (3) the tools facilitated mutual insights into each other’s thoughts and worries; (4) after working with the tools, it was easier to discover potential challenges and possible behavior change; and (5) gaining new knowledge and the motivation to seek more knowledge was easier after working with the tools. Working with the tools changed how the families perceive themselves and the ways in which they can affect their own T2D-related health behavior together. This has direct implications for healthcare practitioners working with people with T2D.

Published: September 2019

Increasingly, the developmental model of anthropic and extractive interventions is a global concern. Its impacts are challenging not only the precarious equilibrium of natural resources but also the one of local communities and identities. The case of the Colombian Llanos shows how the local culture of the Cultura Llanera (CL) is deep-rooted with natural resources, their use and their management. Throughout the use of a survey based on the Governance Analytical Framework (GAF), this paper presents and discusses shared problems and social norms. The collective perception of local groups shows that the CL, in particular traditional livestock practices in flooded savannahs, is a key element for the sustainable development of the region. Furthermore, it reveals that agricultural and extractive activities, primarily rice and oil, are considered the main threats to both the ecosystem and the protection of the CL.
Optimization of Data Processing Minimizes Impact of Self-Absorption on Phosphorus Speciation Results by P K-Edge XANES

Published: September 2019

Bulk soil phosphorus speciation by X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) using fluorescence yield-mode measurements is an important tool for phosphorus research because of the low soil P contents. However, when measuring in fluorescence mode, increasing the concentration of the absorbing atom can dampen the XAS spectral features because of self-absorption and affect the linear combination (LC) fitting results. To reduce the self-absorption for samples of high P contents, thick boron nitride diluted samples are produced, yet the effects of self-absorption on P speciation results via LC fitting of P K-edge XANES spectroscopy, and the possible benefits of data processing optimization are unknown. Toward this end, we produced a series of ternary standard mixtures (calcium-iron-aluminum phosphates) and an example soil sample both diluted using boron nitride over a range from 1 to ~900 mmol kg−1 for the soil sample and up to ~6000 mmol kg−1 for the standard mixture. We show that by optimizing background subtraction and normalization values, consistent results with less than 10% error can be obtained for samples with up to 300 mmol kg−1 P. Our results highlight the applicability of optimized P K-edge XANES fitting across a wide range of concentrations encountered in natural environments.
Decoupling or ‘Decaffing’? The Underlying Conceptualization of Circular Economy in the European Union Monitoring Framework
Authors: Llorente-González Leandro Javier , Vence Xavier
Published: September 2019

In recent years, the shift to a circular economy (CE) has become an increasingly important component of the European Union’s development strategy. However, no consensus has yet been reached on the depth of the transformation this implies, nor on the most appropriate strategy for its measurement. In 2018, the European Commission presented a monitoring framework to evaluate the progress made in this transition, focused on the priority objectives of the European strategy for the CE. This article aims to discuss the conceptualization of the CE behind the selection and interpretation of the metrics proposed by the commission. It is argued that the chosen indicators are mostly concerned with material self-sufficiency and recycling, neglecting other dimensions of the concept more closely related to systemic change. Moreover, some issues that are relevant from a CE perspective, such as the disparate distribution of recyclable material flows among EU Member States in terms of value and environmental impact, are overlooked in the interpretation of the available information. Consequently, a more ambitious and diverse selection of metrics is suggested to reflect the wider socio-economic and environmental objectives of the CE, thus preventing the dissemination of a limited version of the concept.
Main Problems of Railway Cross-Border Transport Between Poland, Germany and Czech Republic
Authors: Gamon Wojciech , Naranjo Gómez José Manuel
Published: September 2019

Railway cross-border transport is a special case of railway transport, which, due to the necessity of crossing the state border, raises many difficulties. They result from factors, among which the most important are other power systems, control systems, a variety of regulations regarding traffic management or even problems with communication, resulting from the different languages. These difficulties involve a number of consequences for the fluency and efficiency of transportation, but more importantly, have negative effects on safety. The article describes the main problems of cross-border transport on the example of Poland and two neighbouring countries (Germany and Czech Republic), which are also members of the European Union. For this purpose, in cooperation with the Polish railway undertakings, an analysis was carried out of processes conducted by these in the field of cross-border transport and identifies the main problems in this area. As part of the conducted research, potential solutions and improvements were also proposed. The article focuses solely on the issues of crossing the border and manoeuvring operations at stations close to the German and Czech borders, inasmuch as these processes constitute the largest area of activity of Polish railway undertakings within the framework of rail cross-border transport.

Published: September 2019

As a typical application of fintech, the robo-advisor has increasingly gained attention over the last decade. However, most research regarding the robo-advisor has focused on its development issues such as performance improvement and regulation, while limited research has paid attention to trust. This research extends the literature by investigating the trust influencing mechanism of robo-advisors by a mixed method approach. Specifically, we identified six salient trust influencing factors by qualitative interviews and proposed the research model based on trust transfer theory. This model was tested via a survey of 230 investors. Our study finds the significant influencing role of supervisory control and validates the relationships among trust influencing factors, trust in technologies, trust in vendor and trust in robo-advisor. Moreover, several differences between junior investors and senior investors are also found in our research. This study examines trust transfer theory in the new context of the robo-advisor and contributes to further development of this increasingly utilized service.
Demand-Oriented Train Timetabling Integrated with Passenger Train-Booking Decisions
Authors: Zhou Wenliang , Fan Wenzhuang , You Xiaorong , Deng Lianbo
Published: September 2019

In recent years, with the global energy shortage and severe environmental deterioration, railway transport has begun to attract great interest as a green transportation mode. One of the vital means to realize social sustainable development is to improve railway transportation systems, in which providing a demand-oriented train timetable with a higher service level is the most viable method. A demand-oriented train timetable problem generally deals with passengers’ train-choice decisions according to the queue principle, but it is not adapted to rail systems, such as China’s, where passengers usually book tickets a few days in advance by telephone or online instead of going to stations. This paper is devoted to modeling and solving the demand-oriented train timetabling problem integrated with passengers’ train-booking decisions. Firstly, a bi-level programming model is formulated for their integrated optimization on a rail network. Its upper-level model is to optimize train arrival and departure times at each visited station with the aim of reducing passengers’ total travel cost, while its lower-level model aims to determine passengers’ train-booking behavior using the user equilibrium theory. Then, a priority-based heuristic algorithm is designed to solve this model. It has two main steps at each iteration: one is to determine the number of passengers booking each train with a given train timetable, and the other is to improve the current train timetable based on the valuable information of passenger train-booking decisions. The performance, convergence, and practicability of the proposed method were analyzed based on the Changsha–Zhuzhou–Xiangtan intercity rail in China. Experimental results show the proposed method can effectively reduce the travel cost for passengers, creating a greater passenger demand for railway travel, which is beneficial to the sustainable development of railway systems and even society.
Dietary Contaminants and Their Effects on Zebrafish Embryos
Authors: Tye Marc , Masino Mark A.
Published: September 2019

Dietary contaminants are often an over-looked factor in the health of zebrafish. Typically, water is considered to be the source for most contaminants, especially within an aquatic environment. For this reason, source water for zebrafish recirculating systems is highly regulated and monitored daily. Most facilities use reverse osmosis or de-ionized water filtration systems to purify incoming water to ensure that contaminants, as well as pathogens, do not enter their zebrafish housing units. However, diets are rarely tested for contaminants and, in the case of manufactured zebrafish feeds, since the product is marketed for aquaculture or aquarium use it is assumed that the feed is acceptable for animals used for research. The following provides examples as to how contaminants could lead to negative effects on development and behavior of developing zebrafish.

Published: September 2019

T-cell development in the thymus is a complex and highly regulated process, involving a wide variety of cells and molecules which orchestrate thymocyte maturation into either CD4+ or CD8+ single-positive (SP) T cells. Here, we briefly review the process regulating T-cell differentiation, which includes the latest advances in this field. In particular, we highlight how, starting from a pool of hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow, the sequential action of transcriptional factors and cytokines dictates the proliferation, restriction of lineage potential, T-cell antigen receptors (TCR) gene rearrangements, and selection events on the T-cell progenitors, ultimately leading to the generation of mature T cells. Moreover, this review discusses paradigmatic examples of viral infections affecting the thymus that, by inducing functional changes within this lymphoid gland, consequently influence the behavior of peripheral mature T-lymphocytes.
A Novel Integrated and Labile eHealth System for Monitoring Dog Rabies Vaccination Campaigns
Authors: Coetzer Andre , Scott Terence P. , Noor Khadija , Gwenhure Lambert F. , Nel Louis H.
Published: September 2019

The elimination of canine rabies through the implementation of high coverage mass dog vaccination campaigns is a complex task, particularly in the resource-limited countries of the rabies endemic world. Here we demonstrated the feasibility of applying targeted rabies vaccination campaigns to deliver more impactful intervention campaigns in resource-limited settings using evidence and lessons learnt from other diseases. With the use of strategic rabies intervention programs, we demonstrate the noteworthy reduction of rabies cases in two very different African settings. The strategic intervention was most significantly aided by the use of a custom-developed vaccination tracking device (the Global Alliance for Rabies Control (GARC) Data Logger) and an integrated rabies surveillance system (the Rabies Epidemiological Bulletin). Our first case study, an island-wide strategic dog vaccination on Tanzania’s Unguja island, reduced the incidence of rabies by 71% in the first 16 months of implementation. In the second case study, a similar approach was applied in the metropolitan capital city of Zimbabwe and the incidence of rabies declined by 13% during the first 13 months of implementation. The methodologies and results presented here suggest that, in resource-limited settings, an optimal approach towards the elimination of dog rabies would revolve around strategic interventions, subject to the use of appropriate planning, surveillance, and vaccination tools.
Modeling and Optimal Shift Control of a Planetary Two-Speed Transmission
Authors: Zhao Xinxin , Tang Jing
Published: September 2019

To improve the efficiency of electric vehicles (EVs), a planetary two-speed transmission is proposed, which consists of a brushless direct current (BLDC) motor, a turbo-worm reducer, two multi-disc wet brakes, and a Simpson planetary gearset. Based on the devised electronic actuator for shifting, the rotation direction of the BLDC shaft determines the gear ratio of the transmission. For acquiring smooth shift, the state-space equations with control variables of transmission are derived, and a three-stage algorithm is suggested. During the brake engagement process, the optimal control strategy has been developed using linear quadratic regulator control, considering the jerk and friction work of the brake. The simulation results show that the proposed optimal control strategy could reduce the slipping friction work of the brake and improve the shifting quality of EVs. The optimal control trajectory of the BLDC motor was conducted on the electronic shifting actuator bench test.

Encounters with the Levant: the late medieval illustrated Jerusalem Travelogue by Paul Walter von Guglingen
Authors: Ritsema van Eck Marianne Petra
Published: September 2019

The late medieval illustrated Jerusalem travelogue by the Franciscan friar Paul Walther von Guglingen has heretofore received scant scholarly attention, perhaps owing to the unusual nature of some of its images. Guglingen charts decidedly Islamic spaces with his maps and plan, instead of the conventional sacred shrines of Christianity; these topographical features are interlaced with personal travelling experiences. Illustrations of flora and fauna encountered along the way are the result of careful observation, and meticulous recording. The author experiments with forms to visually represent his own lived experience. In all cases, text and image are closelyintertwined and testify that non-religious aspects form a legitimate aspect of this pilgrimage account. Consideration of the illustrations in Guglingen’s Itinerarium, alongside, for example, those in the travelogue of his famous travel companion Bernhard von Breydenbach, allows us to illuminate more facets of the late medievalpilgrimage experience.

Myrtle Beach: A history of shore protection and beach restoration
Authors: Kana Timothy , Kaczkowski Haiqing
Published: September 2019

The City of Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, USA) initiated a three-phase plan for beach restoration in the 1980s: Phase 1 — small-scale beach scraping; Phase 2 — mediumscale nourishment by trucks using inland sand; and Phase 3 — large-scale nourishment by dredge using offshore sand. Phases 1 and 2 were locally funded and served as interim measures (1981-1996) until a 50-year federal project could be constructed (1997 to present). In the course of this work, the city pioneered several approaches to beach management and became a model for the state. These include: the prototype SC beach survey program; the profile volume method for determining shorelines in the presence of seawalls, which was codified in the Beach Management Act (BMA) of 1988; the first locally funded nourishment (1986-1987) and FEMA-funded postdisaster renourishment after Hurricane Hugo 1989-1990; and the first surveys of offshore deposits for nourishment. Before restoration, nearly 65% of the 9-mile (14.5 kilometer) oceanfront was armored with seawalls, bulkheads, and revetments (1981). After nourishment, erosion control structures are now buried and fronted by a vegetated storm berm, while a wider beach accommodates millions of visitors each year. Total volumes and adjusted costs of nourishment from 1986 to early 2018 are 4,997,201 cubic yards (3,820,360 m3) and ~$70.8 million ($2018), respectively. On a unit annual beach length basis, the cost of beach restoration and improvement has averaged $46.80 per one foot of shoreline per year (~$153.50/m/yr) ($2018). Oceanfront property values on a unit length of shoreline basis presently range from ~$15,000/ft (~$49,200/m) for single-family homes to ~$75,000/ft (~$250,000/m) for high-rise buildings, suggesting that beach maintenance has cost well under 0.5% of oceanfront property values per year. Sand loss rates have averaged ~0.8 cy/ft/yr (2.0 m3/m/yr), and the rate of nourishment has been more than adequate to keep up with the ~0.37 ft (0.11 m) sea level rise between 1980 and 2018.
Yoksulluğun Ailedeki Sosyalleştirme Süreçlerine ve Çocuklardaki Bilişsel Gelişim ve Okul Başarısı Üzerine Etkisi
Authors: ŞENGÖNÜL Turhan
Published: September 2019

Bu makale yoksulluğun ve
ekonomik güçlüğün sosyalleştirme süreçleri ve çocukların ve ergenlerin bilişsel
gelişmesi, bilişsel becerileri ya da okul başarısı üzerindeki etkisini ele
almaktadır. Ekonomik güçlük ile ilgili aile stres modeli, yoksulluk ve ekonomik
güçlüğün ekonomik baskıya yol açtığını ve ekonomik baskı yüksek olduğunda
annelerin-babaların moral bozukluğu, endişe, kızgınlık ve yabancılaşma gibi
duyguları hissederek üzüntüyü yaşama yönünde artan bir riskte olduğunu ileri
sürmektedir. Yoksulluk ve ekonomik güçlük, annelerin-babaların onların iyi
olmasına yarar ve katkı sağlamak için çocukları ile etkileşme ve onları
sosyalleştirme yeteneğini azaltmaktadır. Düşük gelir ve yoksulluk,
annelerin-babaların duygularını, davranışlarını ve ilişkilerini kötü olarak
etkilemekte ve annelerin-babaların sıcaklığını, duyarlılığını ve gözetimini
azaltarak ve ailede anne-baba-çocuk ilişkilerinde ve etkileşimlerinde
çatışmayı, ilgi göstermeyen ve tutarsız sosyalleştirme uygulamalarını ve sert
ceza kullanımını arttırarak ailenin işlevine, işlerliğine ve sosyalleştirme
süreçlerine zarar vermektedir. Araştırmacılar yoksul ve morali bozuk
annelerin-babaların okumada ve verimli, bol, zengin konuşmada çocuklarla meşgul
olma ya da ev ödevinde çocuklara yardım etme gibi çocuklarında bilişsel
becerilere ve okul başarısına katkı yapan bilişsel olarak teşvik eden çocuk
yetiştirme uygulamaları ve etkinliklerle aktif olarak daha az meşgul
olduklarına işaret etmektedir. Ekonomik güçlükle ilgili aile stres modeli,
aileleri yoksulluğu ve ekonomik güçlüğü yaşadıklarında çocukların ve ergenlerin
düşük zeka puanları, düşük bilişsel beceriler, düşük eğitimsel kazanım, düşük
okul başarısı gibi olumsuz sonuçlara sahip olma yönünde artan riskte olduğunu
ileri sürmektedir.
PEKMEZ, BAL VE ŞEKER: HELVAYA STATÜ VEREN TATLANDIRICILAR
Authors: KARA Çiğdem
Published: September 2019

Makalede helva üç ana tatlandırıcı olan pekmez, bal ve şeker konu
edilmektedir. Örnekleme ise üzerinden yapılmaktadır. Üç tatlandırıcının
kullanıldıkları dönemler, tarifler ve tüketicilerinin kimler olduğu yönünde
sorular sorulmaktadır. Bu şekilde, helvanın tatlandırıcılarının tercih
edilmesinde toplumsal tabakanın etkisinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmaktadır.
Çalışmada kullanılan veriler, yemek kitaplarından ve Türklerin yaşadıkları
farklı coğrafyalarla tarihi dönemler üzerine yapılmış, tatlandırıcılarla
helvaya değinen araştırmalardan elde edilmiştir. Makale dört kısımdan
oluşmaktadır. İlk başlıkta antik bir tatlandırıcı olan pekmeze ve Eski
Türklerdeki tatlı tüketimin sınıfsallığına değinilmektedir. İkinci başlıkta
şekerin diğer tatlandırıcılardan ayrılma nedenleri, ticari bir ürün olması
odağından ele alınmaktadır. Üçüncü bölümde tatlandırıcı tercihi, bal ve şekerin,
özellikle fiyat açısından kıyaslanmasıyla tartışılmaktadır. Dördüncü başlıkta
ise tatlandırıcı tercihinin ağırlıklı olarak estetik gerekçeleri üzerinde durulmaktadır.
Çalışma sonunda yapılan çıkarımlardan bazıları şunlardır: Pekmez, en eski
kültürel olarak üretilmiş tatlandırıcı olarak önce gösterişçi tüketimde yer
almışsa da, zamanla bu işlevi şeker üstlenmiştir. Bu yüzden sonraki dönemlerde
pekmez dar gelirlilik ve ekonomiklikle ilişkilendirilmiştir. Bal, şekerden daha
ucuz olduğu için merkezdeki orta sınıflar kadar çevre yerleşim yerlerinde de
kullanılmıştır. Buna rağmen günümüzde bal ve pekmez yeni bir toplumsal grup
olan sağlıklı beslenme eğilimli tüketicilerin tatlandırıcı listesinde ilk
sırayı paylaşmaktadırlar. Pahalı ve getirtilmesi güç olan şeker, sarayda ve
zenginler arasında en çok tercih edilen tatlandırıcıydı. Kişi, grubuna uygun
bir davranış olarak, bir tatlandırıcı tercih edebilmektedirler. Ama seçiminde
damak tadı, yemeğin rengi ve başka amaçlar da etkili olabilmektedir.

Vygotsky’nin düşünceleri ve görüşleri
etrafında oluşturulmuş olan sosyo-kültürel yapılandırmacılığın temel önermesi,
bilişin gelişmesinde sosyal etkileşimin önemli bir yerinin olduğudur. Bu
yaklaşımda, öğrenmenin meydana gelmesinde zengin birtakım yaşantılar sağlayacak
olan sosyal çevreye olan gereksinim, deneyimli akran ve öğretmenlerin varlığı
gibi durumlar bilişsel fonksiyonların gelişmesinde önemli bir yere sahiptir. Bu
bağlamda çalışmanın temel amacı Türkçe öğretiminin Vygotsky'nin ‘Bilişsel
Gelişim Kuramı’nın önemli kavramlarından olan yakınsal gelişim alanı açısından
değerlendirilmesi ve kavramın Türkçe öğretimine ne şekilde yansıdığının
araştırılmasıdır. Bu inceleme yapılırken Vygotsky’nin görüşleri etrafında
oluşmuş yaklaşım ve stratejilerle diğer bilişsel gelişim kuramları da göz
önünde bulundurulmuştur.  Araştırmada
nitel bir araştırma yöntemi olan doküman inceleme kullanılmış, ortaokul Türkçe
Ders Kitapları (5-8) ve Türkçe Öğretim Programı ele alınmıştır. Sonuç olarak,
yapılan araştırmada elde edilen bulgular ışığında; yakınsal gelişim alanının
Türkçe öğretiminde yer bulduğu, gerek öğretim programının yaklaşımında gerekse
öğretim materyallerinde yakınsal gelişim alanını destekleyen, bu olguyla
ilişkili yapıların olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
Los desafíos de la educación básica en el siglo XXI
Authors: Tedesco Juan Carlos
Published: September 2019

La educación básica del siglo xxi se apoya en dos grandes pilares: aprender a aprender y aprender a vivir juntos. Para comprender las razones que justifican estos pilares de la educación es necesario analizar la dinámica del nuevo capitalismo, así como los objetivos de construcción de una sociedad más justa. Dichos pilares son la base de transformaciones importantes en la educación básica, que afectan tanto a los contenidos curriculares, la formación y el desempeño docente como a la organización institucional de la actividad escolar. Para ello, se postula una mirada pedagógica basada en el objetivo de superar el determinismo social de los resultados de aprendizaje, que domina la educación básica de nuestra región

Authors: Astudillo Mamarandi Alfredo Mauricio , Barriga Santiago
Published: September 2019

Uno de los factores primordiales de la investigación es analizar y dilucidar desde un enfoque teórico los factores más importantes que intervienen en el comercio electrónico, entender cómo funciona desde el proceder conceptual, para luego plantear una técnica de recolección de datos llamada “Focus Gruop” el cual ayudo a entender de la percepción del usuario en la interacción web, basado en la experiencia de compra virtual y su relación a lo expuesto en el ámbito teórico. Es un estudio no experimental ya que se le trato al fenómeno tal como se presenta en el entorno, para comprender el comportamiento de un usuario WEB frente a tiendas virtuales que ofrecen productos de primera necesidad, demostrando así que los panelistas, en su mayoría mujeres tenían una relación de familiaridad con este tipo de negocios virtuales y que no les era ajeno la navegabilidad en las opciones de estudio que se presentó en la investigación.

A religiosidade brasileira: caminhos em meio ao paradoxo
Authors: Gomes - UNIDA Monica Fraga
Published: September 2019

Este trabalho pretende identificar historicamente o percurso da formação religiosa no Brasil e seus caminhos até os dias de hoje envolvendo a evolução política da sociedade, através da observação de suas origens, referências e tragetórias que contribuíram para a cultura religiosa que hoje vivenciamos em suas singularidades. A diversidade de influências, consequência da formação política e social advindas de diferentes povos e culturas, trouxe peculiaridades que contribuíram para uma pluralidade absorvida pela sociedade atual, que enfrenta desafios para que a liberdade trazida pela laicidade do estado brasileiro seja exercida de forma a garantir a sobrevivência das diversas manifestações religiosas em um contexto isento e democrático, onde de um lado exerce a força do estado de direito e de outra a influência religiosa nas leis e diretrizes inseridos na sociedade.
MOISÉS E O PRINCÍPIO DA DIGNIDADE DA PESSOA HUMANA
Authors: De Freitas - UNIDA Kerlington Pimentel
Published: September 2019

O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar o Princípio Jurídico da Dignidade da Pessoa Humana, sustentáculo das sociedades desenvolvidas democráticas modernas, e sua relação direta com uma personagem famigerada na tradição judaico-cristã: Moisés. Veremos que por mais moderno que este princípio seja no mundo, já se ouviam seus rumores na antiguidade, aqui delimitado o período final da “escravidão” do povo hebreu no Egito e sua “interferência” na jornada de Moisés desde sua juventude ao seu retorno para o grande cisma hebreu. Destacamos ainda, segundo o livro sagrado judaico-cristão, a bíblia, cronologicamente Moisés sob forte influência do Princípio analisado.  Dedicou-se sinteticamente à exposição deste princípio jurídico “novo” em nosso ordenamento, porém, antigo em outras tradições que nem sequer ousavam nominá-lo.
DIACONIA E VIOLÊNCIA DOMÉSTICA NUMA PERSPECTIVA HISTÓRICA
Authors: Flexa - UNIDA Rubem Fonseca
Published: September 2019

Este artigo objetiva analisar a história da diaconia na Igreja Primitiva, nos seus diversos viés. A diaconia é uma instituição divina e uma organização terrena constituída nos primórdios da igreja para viabilizar as necessidades básicas da comunidade carente e a prática da fraternidade. Nesse prisma, é possível também refletir sobre a violência doméstica, que não é só física e pessoal, mas psicossocial, material e assistencial.  O Estado deve ser o primeiro a cumprir o seu papel constitucional na assistência social e garantia dos direitos individuais dos cidadãos. Combatendo assim, a miséria e a violência doméstica na sociedade. Palavras-chaves: Diaconia. Igreja Primitiva. Violência doméstica.

RELIGIÃO E RELIGIOSIDADE
Authors: Gomes - UNIDA Brunno Ferreira
Published: September 2019

Este artigo tem como principal objetivo destacar a religião na sociedade moderna fazendo distinção entre a religião e a religiosidade. Trata-se de uma pesquisa bibliográfica onde se encontram as conotações de Max Weber (1864-1920); Durkheim; Karl Marx: Eles formam a Tríade Clássica da sociologia. Weber procurava datar a sociologia de lentes conceituais capazes de observar com objetividade fenômenos como a religião e a política. A justificativa destes estudos está em colocar em destaque as religiões, que se observa e toda a sociedade, onde a religião é utilizada como forma de socialização e comunhão de ideias, práticas e valores. De acordo com Durkheim a religião é um meio de coesão entre os grupos sociais e Karl Marx ficou imortalizado com a sua frase: “A religião é o ópio do povo”. A hipótese levantada está em propiciar a integração dos costumes e partilha de seus aspectos comuns. A religião tranquiliza o espírito diante dos problemas e situações que desagradam. Ela vem manter a sociedade e o que pertence à sociedade. Os estudos concluem que não é possível viver sem religião e ou religiosidade, pois fazem parte da vida do ser humano. Nas considerações de Herviem-Léger (1993, p. 36), a religião não termina com a secularização, mas ganha novas formas e contornos, novos sabores, numa dinâmica em que ao mesmo tempo em que se esgota, se dilui, renasce, ressurge e se difunde.
