New Standards-Based Lessons for the Busy Elementary School Librarian
Authors: Keeling Joyce
Published: January 2024

Busy elementary librarians need help applying the new AASL Standards Framework, especially in collaboration with social studies teachers seeking to apply the social studies standards framework. This book shows a path forward for both.

This book will be a tremendous help to the busy elementary school librarian who is working with busy elementary social studies teachers. As they are designing and co-teaching library-based lessons based on the Social Studies Standards Framework, the English Literacy Common Core Standards, and the new American Association of School Librarians (AASL) Standards Learners Framework, these reproducible lessons will enhance planning and implementation.

You'll get ready-to-use lessons as well as model lessons to adapt to the needs of your own curriculum and students.

All standards are applied—with needed handouts—and other tools and current lists of recommended resources are provided. Lessons are coordinated to common elementary social studies curricula at indicated grade levels but can be adapted as template lessons as needed. Current resource lists aid librarians in collection development to support new and current standards.
On Top of the World
Authors: Solheim Bruce O.
Published: January 2024

An examination of the political and social characteristics particular to Scandinavia which have made women's rise to power more rapid than in other regions of the world, this study also explores how the resulting election of women has provided valuable evidence of the impact of women leaders and their leadership style. Solheim begins with a critical survey of feminist scholarship regarding the equality-difference debate and the application of such research on the position of women in international politics. He concludes, in this respect, that leadership style may have less to do with gender than one might initially suspect. Archival research and interviews with women in leadership roles provide the reader with a closer look at the Scandinavian system, a view that will challenge gender stereotypes around the world.

On Top of the World explores the Nordic political systems in great detail and analyzes systemic factors, such as multi-party electoral systems and consensus-seeking cultural institutions, which contribute to the rise of so many women leaders. Solheim compares and contrasts the political rise of two Nordic women leaders to power and influence and, for the purpose of cross-cultural comparison, one woman leader from the developing world. A final chapter ties together the theoretical framework and the case studies to suggest a direction for future research.

Open Questions
Authors: Rodrigues Luís F.
Published: January 2024

This book offers 27 interviews with distinguished intellectuals from different fields of expertise, presenting their viewpoints about the existence and nonexistence of God, the roles of religion and science, and other related and controversial topics.

Subjects such as spirituality, the existence of God, atheism, and the concept of one true religion are profound, incendiary topics. This collection of interviews about faith and religion will fascinate anyone believer or nonbeliever who is interested in the interaction of science, religion, and belief in contemporary culture.

Open Questions: Diverse Thinkers Discuss God, Religion, and Faith is a compelling invitation to each of us to examine our positions on these highly charged subjects. It will both answer questions and inspire new inquiries. In the process of creating this book, author and interviewer Lus F. Rodrigues was driven by his natural and intense curiosity rather than by dogmatic or institutional bias; he had no agenda other than to fairly present multiple points of view on the widely debated topics at hand. This compilation of easy-to-read interviews with individuals like John Dominic Crossan, Dinesh D'Souza, A.C. Grayling, and James Randi will appeal to general readers as well as theologians and academics.
Outsmarting Mother Nature
Authors: Sweis Iliana E.
Published: January 2024

This concise, educational, and thorough reference will educate women who are contemplating, undergoing, or recovering from plastic surgery.

In Outsmarting Mother Nature: A Woman's Complete Guide to Plastic Surgery in the 21st Century, a female plastic surgeon explains all the major procedures in cosmetic surgery, offering frank insights into both physical and psychological issues and expectations. Dr. Iliana Sweis, who not only performs but has undergone cosmetic procedures, details the stages most women will go through from the time they begin to contemplate plastic surgery. The book explains how one can best prepare for a procedure, what to expect during the actual surgery, and how to handle the healing phase.

The first several chapters discuss the emotional aspects underlying the desire to undergo plastic surgery, including its social and professional impacts. Each of the subsequent chapters is devoted to individual plastic surgery procedures in significant detail, using a question-and-answer format. Case studies illustrate what cosmetic procedures can, and cannot, accomplish and the reality checks that need to be in place as part of the decision to proceed.
Outsourcing State and Local Government Services
Authors: O’Looney John
Published: January 2024

Should we be doingor trying to doeverything ourselves, or might it be better to contract some tasks out to others? Could they do them better and cheaper than we can? More and more state and local governments are asking these questions, and while there are many answers on the Federal level, these answers often don’t apply lower down the line. Nevertheless, it is evident that contracting out is often the better strategy—but how best to go about it? What are the benefits and what are the hidden risks? Dr. O’Looney’s book provides precisely the guidance that state and local managers need: first, how to decide to outsource a government service, then step-by-step how to proceed. Based on extensive interviews and other research, O’Looney takes managers through the intricacies of contract outsourcing and administration, but in doing so he makes clear that he appreciates the importance of government. His book is not an argument for privatization, as so many other books are; rather, it is an affirmation of government and the benefits of its many services.

Readers will find theory and advice on the services that are most suitable for contracting out; a listing and review of the components of a high-quality analysis, including the analysis of often overlooked political, organizational, and functional aspects of government; advice on how to go from deciding to outsource to actually designing, implementing, and monitoring a contract in situations that could prove hazardous to the livelihoods of government workers. He also discusses the changes that need to be made in the organizational culture, management, and employee training as a result of the change to a contract-based system of providing services; the considerations in designing work specifications and other critical aspects of the government-vendor relationship, and how ideal contracting processes and ideal contracts can differ according to the nature of the service being contracted. The result is a thorough and highly practical volume for executives and managers in the public sector, and for those who hope to do business with them.

Peyotism and the Native American Church
Authors: White Phillip M.
Published: January 2024

The largest religion begun, organized, and directed by and for Native Americans, Peyotism includes the use of peyote in its ceremonies. As a sacred plant of divine origin, peyote use was well established in religious rituals in pre-Columbian Mexico. Toward the end of the 19th century Peyotism spread to the Indians of Texas and the Southwest, and it spread rapidly in the United States after the subsidence of the Ghost Dance. It persists today among Native Americans in Northern Mexico, the United States, and Southern Canada. Possibly because of the controversy over peyote use, a lot has been written about the Native American Church. This bibliography provides a useful guide for scholars, students, and Native Americans who want to research Peyotism.

The bibliography includes books and book chapters, master's theses, Ph.D. dissertations, magazine and journal articles, conference papers, museum publications, U.S. government publications, audiovisual materials, and World Wide Web sites. In addition, it includes selected articles from newspapers, law reviews, medical and psychiatric journals, and scientific journals that provide information on Peyotism. A valuable research guide, the bibliography will help to provide a greater understanding of the history, ceremonies, and significance of the pan-Indian religion.
Plastic Surgery
Authors: Thompson Lana
Published: January 2024

This book provides a complete history of plastic surgery, a description of the modern techniques and choices available, and an overview of the controversies surrounding the choice to voluntarily change your physical appearance.

Plastic surgery was historically considered a medical necessity. These were procedures specifically developed to treat burn or accident victims, to correct those born with cleft palates, or to repair extreme cases of cosmetic disfigurement, such as amputations performed as a punishment for adulterous men. Today, however, plastic surgery is a common option for those seeking to modify their normal and uninjured bodies to conform to an unrealistic, idealized model of perfection.

This book presents the fascinating history of how therapeutic techniques were adapted to offer cosmetic changes to patients without disfiguring bodily flaws. The first section of Plastic Surgery details this evolution by tracing the history from development of the medical techniques to the choices currently available today. The second section digs deeper to examine the controversies and issues associated with plastic surgery, such as race, beauty, and gender reassignment. The third section offers primary documents produced by medical authorities regarding accepted procedures and practices, as well as an expansive glossary and timeline.
Playing the Lying Game
Authors: Scott Gini Graham
Published: January 2024

Whether it's in business or politics, between friends, inside a family, or within intimate relationships, lies abound. This book examines who lies and why, identifies six types of lies and liars, and suggests how to protect yourself from manipulation.

Everyone lies, perhaps to protect the feelings of another, perhaps to secure a deal that will, in the end, benefit all parties. But where is the line between a “good lie” and a harmful prevarication—and how do we recognize and protect ourselves from the latter? In Playing the Lying Game: Detecting and Dealing with Lies and Liars, from Occasional Fibbers to Frequent Fabricators, accomplished author Gini Graham Scott shares psychological insights into lying that will help answer such questions—and many more.

Scott examines every facet of lying, including its history, cultural connections, and motivations. She identifies six types of lies and liars and explains how to detect each type, whether one is confronted with the occasional fibber or a sociopathic, compulsive liar. The book covers lies told in business and politics, lies among friends, lies between dates, married couples, and family members, as well as lies we tell our ourselves. Finally, Scott offers a Lie-Q Test that will help us see how savvy we are—or are not—in detecting fibs, mistruths, and downright deceptions.

Pop-Up Books
Authors: Bluemel Nancy Larson , Taylor Rhonda Harris
Published: January 2024

A convincing explanation of why interactive or movable books should be included in the library collection that documents their value as motivational instructional tools—in all areas of the school curriculum, across many grade levels.

Pop-up books possess universal appeal. Everyone from preschoolers to adults loves to see and tactilely experience the beautiful three-dimensional work of Robert Sabuda, David A. Carter, and other pop-up book creators. Sabuda himself was inspired to become a pop-up book artist after experiencing the 1972 classic pop-up The Adventures of Super Pickle. The effect of these movable books on young minds is uniquely powerful. Besides riveting children's attention, pop-up books can also help build motor skills, teach cause and effect, and develop spatial understanding of objects.

Based on their direct experience and many presentations to teachers and librarians, the authors have provided template lesson plans with curriculum and standards links for using the best pop-up books currently available in the instructional program of the school. The book also includes profiles of the most notable authors, a history of the format, definitions of terms such as ""flap book"" and ""paper engineer,"" and information on how to create movable books. Librarians will find the section regarding collection development with the format—how and where to acquire them, proper storage methods—and the annotated listing of the authors' 50 favorite pop-ups extremely helpful.

Authors: Kakade Niraj , Mani Aditya , Bhatkar Chetan , Chaudhari Paresh , Roshan Rachit
Published: January 2024

The boilers lose heat through various means, this statement refers to various ways in which heat is released or transferred, such as the emission of hot gases from chimneys, the disposal of hot wastewater, and the transmission of heat from heated surfaces. This study focuses on a chimney originally designed for a 15-ton/hour, 16-bar boiler. The issue with the chimney is that it experiences a high accumulation of carbon particles. In an effort to address the issue, the chimney has been re-engineered to minimize the build-up of scale which impacts the boiler's performance. It is specifically designed for use in boiler chimneys and features a hatch. The goal of this project is to decrease the size of the cross-sectional area of this particular section in order to enhance the flow of flue gases.
Exploring the Outdoor Space as a Vehicle for Children’s Spiritual Development and Transformation in Early Childhood Education
Authors: Wills Ruth
Published: January 2024

Although the rhetoric of children’s spirituality is absent in Early Childhood educational policy in England and Wales, considering its relationship with the outdoor space, it might be deemed an implicit yet essential aspect of learning with and caring for young children. This article posits that the outdoor space provides a locus for the nurture of spirituality, including fostering a sense of self and well-being, encouraging existential questioning, and embracing responsibility. Exploring three meta-dimensions of spirituality – relation through inclusive play, creativity, and reflection - and considering the notion of transformation in learning, it is proposed that the outdoor space might provide opportunities for children in all global contexts to receive care and in turn become citizens who care for natural world and others.

Published: January 2024

Um considerável número de espécies arbóreas constitui a flora brasileira, em alguns casos, seus frutos revelam-se boas fontes de nutrientes. Objetivando contribuir nessa área, foi determinada a composição química da semente e do óleo de baru (Dipteryx alata Vog.), nativo do Município de Pirenópolis, Estado de Goiás. A metodologia analítica para a determinação da composição centesimal aproximada da semente e em ácidos graxos de seu óleo seguiu o descrito nas ‘’Normas Analíticas do Instituto Adolfo Lutz’’ (1985), o método enzimático-gravimétrico de Lee para as fibras totais, e a técnica da Espectrometria de Emissão Atômica com Plasma de Argônio Indutivamente Acoplado (ICPAES) para os minerais. A semente de baru apresentou teores relativamente elevados de lipídios (38,2 g/ 100 g) e proteínas (23,9 g/100 g) e, conseqüentemente, de calorias (502 kcal/100 g), além de valores significativos de fibras alimentares (13,4 g/100 g) e de minerais, como potássio (827 mg/10 g), fósforo (358 mg/100 g) e magnésio (178 mg/100 g), sugerindo seu emprego na alimentação humana e animal, desde que não contenha substâncias tóxicas ou alergênicas. O óleo da semente revelou um elevado grau de insaturação (81,2%), conteúdo de α-tocoferol (5,0 mg/100 g) e composição em ácidos graxos semelhantes a do óleo de amendoim, destacando-se os ácidos oléicos (50,4%) e linoléico (28,0%), este considerado essencial, o que favorece seu uso para fins alimentícios e como matéria-prima para as indústrias farmacêutica e oleoquímica.
Avaliação de resíduos de Endosulfan em matriz de vagem e soja para comparação de dois sistemas de aplicação do produto formulado
Authors: M.D. Corrêa Célia , J. do V. Oliveira Jorge , L. Tornisielo Valdemar
Published: January 2024

O objetivo deste trabalho foi determinar os níveis de resíduos de α-endosulfan,β-endosulfan e sulfato de endosulfan na vagem e no grão de soja. A soja foi cultivada em uma área de 900 m2, dividida em três parcelas iguais, sendo uma parcela reservada para a soja testemunha, sem aplicação de endosulfan, e as outras duas reservadas para pulverização deste inseticida por meio do sistema manejo integrado de pragas (MIP) e do sistema convencional. Os níveis de resíduos de endosulfan foram quantificados por cromatografia gasosa com detector de captura de elétrons (Ni63). Foram encontrados na vagem cerca de 6 e 7 vezes mais resíduos de endosulfan total do que no grão de soja, nos sistemas MIP e convencional, respectivamente. Em ambos os sistemas, não foram detectados a presença de sulfato de endosulfan dentro do limite de quantificação do método de 0,5 mg/kg para o grão de soja e 0,1 mg/kg para a vagem de soja. Em relação aos resultados obtidos conclui-se que a vagem apresentou um efeito protetor à penetração do inseticida no grão. Ambos os sistemas foram eficientes no combate às pragas, porém sugere-se o uso do MIP porque resultou em menor contaminação do grão. A soja estava adequada para consumo em relação à Legislação Brasileira de Resíduos de Pesticidas.

Sugere-se que seja incluída no rótulo a advertência sobre o cuidado para evitar que o produto puro entre em contato com os olhos.
Diversifikasi Olahan Ikan Lele Sebagai Alternatif MPASI Guna Pencegahan Stunting Di Kabupaten Jember
Authors: Ayu Joyana Sri Hartatik  , Yeni Sutrianingsih  , Dian Aris Monna  , Elly Nurhandayani  , Dewi Deniaty Sholihah
Published: January 2024

Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem caused by prolonged inadequate nutrient intake, leading to growth impairment in children aged 0-59 months. Complementary feeding, known as MPASI in Indonesian, refers to the introduction of solid foods and liquids to infants aged 6 to 24 months. In Indonesia, stunting is a significant health issue that cannot be ignored. According to the National Nutrition Status Survey (SSGI) data, the prevalence of stunting in Indonesia reached 21.6% in 2022, ranking fifth globally and second in Southeast Asia. Specifically, Jember Regency holds the first position in East Java, with a staggering rate of 34.9%. The occurrence of stunting in children can be influenced by inappropriate quality and timing of MPASI provision. One potential intervention to address the stunting problem in Jember Lor Subdistrict, Patrang District, Jember Regency, East Java Province, is to provide training on processed MPASI products, such as catfish nuggets. Catfish is a type of fish rich in protein and amino acids. Lysine, an amino acid found in catfish, can positively impact child growth, tissue repair, antibody production, and calcium absorption. The community engagement activities in this initiative utilize a mass communication approach through education and training sessions. The promotion of balanced nutritious food and training on local food processing, specifically catfish nuggets, aims to prevent and control stunting conditions in Jember Lor Subdistrict, Patrang District, Jember Regency, East Java Province.
Simple uncertainty budget and assessment with the Kragten method: Examples for building physics
Authors:   Aalborg University, Johra Hicham
Published: January 2024

The aim of this lecture note is to present and exemplify the Kragten method to calculate the combined uncertainty (uncertainty budget) of a measurand from the standard uncertainty estimates of individual inputs of that measurand, and the mathematical formulation of that measurand. If these two elements are not available, the Kragten method cannot be applied. The method also provides sensitivity (significance) assessment of the different components (inputs) in the combined uncertainty budget. The Kragten method for uncertainty calculation is very simple yet a robust and accurate alternative to the more complex GUM or Monte Carlo simulation methods. It can be performed with a simple spreadsheet tool (e.g., MS Excel) with minimum risks of mistakes. This method is adequate for the field of building physics, energy in buildings and indoor environmental engineering. This lecture note also provides examples of uncertainty calculations (budgets) for common measurands and metrics in the field of building physics, energy in buildings and indoor environmental engineering. These examples are attached to the present lecture note document (Excel spreadsheet documents). One should note that this lecture note does not cover the process of estimating the standard uncertainty of the individual inputs of the measurand. Those standard uncertainties should be obtained from technical documentation, models, or estimates from measurements (e.g., 1σ standard deviation of a set of repeated measurements on measurand that is assumed to remain constant over the monitoring period), and converted into standard uncertainties (1σ confidence interval assuming a normal probability distribution or the errors).

Unfolding the Experiences and Preparedness Mechanism of Senior Citizens in the Wake of Disaster: Towards a Disaster Resilient Community
Authors: Guiamalodin Norolshalah M , Culele Rita Gen A , Silguerra Jofelrey , Diquito Tomas Jr A
Published: January 2024

The physical, emotional, and psychological well-being of every individual is negatively affected by disasters. In particular, the aged people, or “Senior Citizens” are susceptible to the disproportionate and detrimental effects brought upon by any form of disaster. Thus, this study explored the lived experiences of senior citizens in any disaster and their corresponding preparatory mechanisms. Using a qualitative-phenomenological research design, this study interviewed eleven (11) participants to generate their experiences and preparatory mechanism in the wake of disaster. The use of Collaizi’s method was used in the analysis of the qualitative data. Analysis of data revealed two emergent themes: (1) Disaster-related challenges and (2) life security that describe the experiences of the participants. In addition, the results have shown that senior citizens experience difficulty in combating disasters due to a range of disaster-related challenges they encounter. On the other hand, their most common preparatory mechanism in order to combat the challenges primarily relates to safety measures. Thus, disaster preparations need to be strengthened and ensure that the needs of senior citizens are taken into account in local disaster planning and community response efforts.

Published: January 2024

Anonim şirketlerde, kural olarak, pay sahibinin payını serbestçe devredebilmesi ilkesi geçerlidir. Bu ilkenin varlığının birden fazla sebebi bulunmaktadır. Anonim şirketlerde, çıkma ve çıkarılmanın olmaması ve pay sahiplerinin kişiliklerinin önem taşımaması bu ilkenin temel gerekçeleridir. Ülke içindeki küçük birikimleri yatırıma dönüştürme amacına hizmet etmesi düşünülen anonim şirketlerin bu amacını yerine getirebilmesi için de yatırımcının istediği zaman payını kolayca nakde çevirebilmesi gerekmektedir. Aksi hâlde anonim şirket pay sahibi olmak, güvenli ve işlevsel bir yatırım aracı olmaktan çıkacaktır. Ancak bu ilke nama yazılı olan pay ve pay senetleri açısından kanun koyucu tarafından sınırlandırılmıştır. Doktrinde bu sınırlandırmalara “bağlam” denilmekte olup sınırlamalar, kanuni bağlam ve esas sözleşmesel bağlam olarak ikiye ayrılmaktadır. Kanun koyucu, “Esas Sözleşmeyle Sınırlama” yan başlığı altında Türk Ticaret Kanunu m. 492 vd. borsaya kote olmayan nama yazılı pay ve pay senetlerinin devrinin sınırlandırılmasını düzenlemiştir. Bu sınırlamalardan ilki, esas sözleşmede öngörülen önemli sebebin ileri sürülmesidir. İkinci sınırlandırma, kaçış klozuna başvurulmasıdır. Üçüncüsü ise pay ve pay senetlerinin, kendi ad ve hesabına alındığının beyan edilmemesi sebebiyle pay devrinin sınırlandırılmasıdır. Kaçış klozu, şirketin devredilecek olan nama yazılı payların veya pay senetlerinin gerçek değerini ödemek suretiyle şirketin istemediği yeni pay sahiplerini saf dışı bırakan ve yabancılaşmayı önleyen bir kurumdur. Ancak kaçış klozuna ilişkin maddelerde geçen ifadelerle kanun koyucunun amacı bazen çelişmekte, bazen de amacı anlaşılamayıp yorum yapılması gerekmektedir. Bu sebeple bazı tartışmalar ortaya çıkabilmektedir. Çalışmada bu tartışmalı hususlar gerek kanunun lafzı gerekse kanun koyucunun amacından faydalanılmak suretiyle irdelenmeye çalışılmıştır.
Paylı Mülkiyetten Doğan veya Paylı Malı İlgilendiren Gider ve Yükümlülüklerden Paydaşların Dış ve İç İlişkideki Sorumluluğu
Authors: YILDIRIR Efe Can
Published: January 2024

4721 sayılı Türk Medeni Kanunu’nun 688. maddesinde birden çok kimsenin maddi olarak bölünmemiş bir şeyin tamamına belirli paylarla malik olması şeklinde açıklanan paylı mülkiyet ile uygulamada karşılaşılan sorunlar arasında paylı mal ile nesnel bağlantı içinde bulunan giderlerden ve yükümlülüklerden paydaşların hem alacaklılara karşı hem de birbirlerine karşı sorumlulukları esaslı önemi haizdir. Bu öneme binaen kanun koyucu TMK m. 694’ü sevk etmiştir. Bu çalışmanın kaleme alınması ile bu düzenlenmenin detaylı bir şekilde incelenmesi hedeflenmiştir. Anılan kanun hükmünün sadece iç ilişkiye dair olması, çalışmanın gayesinin gerçekleşebilmesi için paylı mal ile nesnel bağlantı içinde bulunan giderlerden ve yükümlülüklerden paydaşların üçüncü kişilere karşı (dış) sorumluluğunun da detaylı bir biçimde ele alınmasını gerektirmektedir. Özellikle bölünebilir edimi konu edinen borçlardan birden fazla kişinin sorumlu olması durumunda alacaklıyla ilişkilerde kural olarak kısmi borçluluğun kabul edilmesi, TMK m. 694’ün paydaşların dış ilişkideki sorumluluğu bağlamında incelenmesini gerekli kılmaktadır. Paylı mülkiyetten doğan ve paylı malı ilgilendiren gider ve yükümlülüklerden paydaşların birbirlerine karşı sorumluluğunun belirlenmesinde ise TMK m. 694’ün öneminin anlaşılabilmesi için sebepsiz zenginleşme ve vekaletsiz iş görmeye dayalı talep haklarına dayalı rücu ile de karşılaştırmalara ihtiyaç vardır.

İnceleme konusu olan eserde ise İİK’nın 283. maddesinin 2. fıkrasında yer alan tasarrufun iptali davasında nakden tazmin konusu ele alınmıştır. Tek bir fıkra hükmünden yola çıkılarak hazırlanan bu kitap, kanun koyucu tarafından gerekli detaylandırma yapılmaması nedeniyle birtakım anlaşmazlıklara yol açabilen ilgili fıkra hükmüne farklı bakışlar ortaya koyarak çeşitli hukuk sistemlerinde nasıl değerlendirildiğine odaklanmıştır. Bu kapsamda ortaya çıkan çeşitli uyuşmazlıklarda farklı hukuk sistemleri içerisinde nasıl bir yol izlendiği gözetilerek yazarın kendi görüşlerine de yer verilmiştir. Bu çalışmada ise bahse konu olan kitabın incelemesi gerçekleştirilmiştir.
From Collapse to Relationality Improv: High School Stories in Motion for Justice
Authors: Gardner Morgan K , Scarth Kate
Published: January 2024

Youth live storied lives (made up of intersecting stories of school, home, peers, and other aspects of lived experience). Therefore, the ways in which youth construct and tell their high school stories are vital for understanding their experiences as first authors (primary creators, constructors, and tellers of their own stories) and protagonists (as active agents of these stories). This paper examines the physical and metaphorical movements that a research team experienced when constructing and sharing their high school narratives related to youth engagement in social justice educational change. Team members went from engaging restricted movements (which we, authors, have called collapse, truncation, or formulaic motions) to expanded motions (designated relationality improv, malleable formations, and the languages of the arts). This transformation reflected members becoming first authors of and meaningful protagonists in their high school stories of social justice and democratic educational change. For educators and researchers striving to support youth voice and engagement in educational change, an emphasis on movement (within youths’ story construction and telling processes) affords valuable openings to support youth in identifying and claiming their agency, engagement and change-making in high school.

Authors: Arta Deva Victoria Talenta , Hermansyah Hermansyah
Published: January 2024

This study aims to implement Dijkstra's algorithm in mapping Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the Deli Serdang area using the Android platform with Java language. This MSME mapping aims to provide information on the nearest MSME location to users by using a mobile-based Geographic Information System (GIS). This study uses a software development approach with quantitative and qualitative methods. MSME location data was collected through surveys and interviews with business owners. This data is then processed and analyzed using the SketchUp software to build a visual model of MSME locations in the Deli Serdang area. In addition, an Android-based mobile application was developed using the Java programming language to provide an interactive and easy-to-use interface. This application provides information on the location of UMKM as well as recommendations for the closest route from the user's location to the UMKM you want to visit. The results of the study show that Dijkstra's algorithm has succeeded in producing recommendations for the closest route and travel time to MSMEs, so this application can assist users in finding MSME locations quickly and accurately. Users can also view detailed information about each MSME, such as business descriptions, hours of operation, and contacts to contact. This application is expected to increase the accessibility of information for visitors and potential MSME consumers in the Deli Serdang area. In addition, it is hoped that it can help increase the competitiveness and promotion of MSMEs and provide support for local economic growth.
