Authors: Mehreen Zafar  , Dr. Muhammad Ahsan  , Dr. Zahoor Hussain
Published: December 2020

The current study aims to explore the traumatic experiences of female characters of Sophia Khan’s Yasmeen. M. Balaev (2014) identified “the concept of trauma as pathological and unspeakable” in the genre of trauma fiction. The insights Bloom’s Psychological Trauma Theory (1999) provided the theoretical framework for the descriptive and critical textual analysis of the novel which in turn disclosed the traumatic experiences of leading female characters, Yasmeen, Irenie, Celeste and Mehrunissa. The current study is in the qualitative paradigm of research and suggested through findings that the female characters are suffering from various traumatic experiences resulted through the loss, distrust, immoral values, and re-enactment; the teenage young characters, Irenie and Celeste can dilute the trauma by dissociating the emotions whereas Yasmeen and Mehrunissa, the adult characters cannot cope their traumatic experiences.  Though the traumatic experiences of all characters are separate in content and degree but the traumatic experiences of ‘Evolution’s legacy’, emotions of loss, and ‘Learned helpless’, constrained actions, are common to all female characters.
Cultural Hybridity as Perpetuation of Americanization: A Study of the Selected Novels of Mohsin Hamid and Kamila Shamsie
Authors: Dr. Waheed Ahmad Khan  , Salman Hamid Khan  , Dr. Shaukat Ali
Published: December 2020

Cultural hybridity has prevailed by penetrating its roots in the globalized world. It has influenced the identity of people especially migrants of various countries. Identity in the case of cultural hybridity leads to conflict. Migrants wish to grow by absorbing influences from their own 'roots' but new 'routes' also inspire them. Homi K. Bhabha is of the view that migrants' cultural world changes after crossing the borders; they have an experience of living in an alien culture and thus learn new ideas. He criticizes the idea of a fixed identity which is developed by the migrants' native culture. Bhabha argues that identity is 'hybrid'; it is always in a state of flux because it is constantly in motion, pursuing unpredictable routes. However, Aijaz Ahmad believes that the identity of people does not develop independently. He does not consider cultural hybridity as synonymous with cultural differentials. Bhabha's celebration of hybridity ignores unequal relations of cultural power. He also ignores cultural and historical specifics in his theorization of hybridity. The study is qualitative and is based on interpretive analysis of the novels The Reluctant Fundamentalist and The Burnt Shadows which celebrate hybridity in cultures.  The study unveils unequal relations of cultural power in hybridity.

Authors: Mir Aimal Kasi  , Prof. Dr Zainiab Bibi  , Prof. Dr Jahanvash Karim
Published: December 2020

Leaders play an essential role in the success and failure of the organization. In the past, studies examined positive leadership characteristics and behavior and their impacts on employee outcomes. The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of despotic leadership on employee creativity and turnover intention with the mediating role of employee voice behavior. The sample consisted of 344 faculty members of Teacher Training Institutions in Pakistan. SPSS-25 software was used to evaluate the collected data. The results demonstrated that despotic leadership hurts employee voice behavior and creativity and has a positive impact on turnover intention. Further, the results also revealed that the voice behavior of employees has no mediation effect in the relationship between despotic leadership and employee outcomes (creativity and turnover intention). The study highlighted the importance of the topic and explored the research gap by focusing on the dark side of leadership and examined how despotic leadership harms the creativity and turnover intention of employees.
Assessing the Role of Pedagogy in Performance of Schools in Rural Islamabad
Authors: Mohamad Sohail Khan  , Dr. Malik Inayatullah Jan
Published: December 2020

Rural areas in Pakistan are confronted with multiple problems including the provision of quality education to rural children. The key component of quality education is the level of pedagogy in rural schools. Effective pedagogy contributes significantly towards students' learning. The current study was conducted to assess the role of pedagogy as a major determinant in schools' performance in four rural sectors of Islamabad. The universe of this study included all public schools located in four rural sectors of Islamabad. There are a total of 275 public schools in rural Islamabad. A sample of 83 schools, both primary and secondary schools, was selected out of the total schools by using proportionate stratified random sampling technique. A self-developed questionnaire entailing the objectives of the study was used to collect data. Descriptive statistics and regression analysis were used to analyze data. Pedagogy was assessed through three major components. These are communication skills (CS), lesson planning (LP), and command of content (CoC). These components were quantified accordingly. Results showed that pedagogy had a positive and highly significant effect on school performance at both primary and secondary levels. Provision of quality education is the right of rural children like those in urban settings where access to and quality of education are much better. Efforts should be made to improve and diversify pedagogical practices in rural schools and bring these at par with urban schools.
Utilization of Art Therapy with Children with ADHD Co-Morbid Intellectual Disability for Decreasing Inattention
Authors: Dr. Hina Ayaz Habib  , Dr. Uzma Ali
Published: December 2020

The research aimed to examine the positive role art therapy could play in improving the attention span of children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder co-morbid Intellectual Disability in the context of Karachi (Pakistan). The key presumption was that art therapy can help in decreasing inattention among the children with ADHD co-morbid Intellectual Disability. Purposive sampling was used for the selection of cases from schools in Karachi (Pakistan) which are offering educational services to the children with special needs. The sample comprised 14 children, ages 6 to 12 years (mean age= 7.391; SD = 1.315) with ADHD co-morbid Mild ID. Experimental design was adopted for carrying out the investigation, entailing the division of the sample into the treatment group (which received 25 art therapy sessions as a form of intervention) and control group (which was provided with regular classroom activities). The allocation of children to both groups was carried out through the ABBA technique as well as the use of observation. The tools of the Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder test were used to gauge the differences in the level of inattention in both groups. Analysis of data was conducted through SPSS version 17.0, using descriptive statistics to examine the pattern of data as well as identify the level of effectiveness of art therapy through administering the Wilcoxon test. The findings of the study support the assumption that art therapy is useful for curtailing impulsiveness in children with ADHD. Therefore, it can be concluded that art therapy is likely to bring positive changes in the level of attention in children with ADHD co-morbid ID. The study carries implications for individuals practicing in the field of mental health care and special education.
A Test-Based Confirmatory Study of the Existence of an Underlying Relationship between Linguistic and Mathematical Skills
Authors: Dr. Ammara Farukh  , Dr. Syed Shujaat Ali  , Muhammad Ahmad
Published: December 2020

The present study intended to explore the relationship of second language (L2) skills with first language (L1) skills, and mathematics skills. Language skills and mathematical skills share the same sub-skills, the same regions in the brain for their processing, and similar psychological development (Purpura & Ganley, 2014). Language skills and mathematics skills are shown to be monitored and operated from the same regions of the brain, therefore there is a strong possibility that these skills would be concurrent predictors of one another and could correlate significantly with one another. To test this hypothesis, scores of one hundred girls (of 11 years of age in the subjects of English, Urdu, and mathematics in the grade 5 examination conducted under Punjab Education Commission) were taken as participants. Their statistical analyses confirmed the existence of a strong correlation among L1, L2, and mathematical skills.
Critical Thinking Skills in a Secondary School Pakistan Studies Textbook: A Qualitative Content Analysis
Authors: Hamna Naseer  , Yaar Muhammad  , Sajid Masood
Published: December 2020

The purpose of this study was to examine the critical thinking skills incorporated in text-based questions and tasks in the Pakistan Studies textbooks of secondary level. The Pakistan Studies textbook produced by the Punjab Textbook Board for ninth was analyzed using qualitative content analysis based on cognitive domains derived from six levels of revised Bloom's taxonomy. Moreover, the text-based questions were then analyzed by categorizing them under the nine pre-determined analytic categories of Socratic taxonomy. These categories depicted the questions that challenge the critical thinking skills of learners. The findings revealed that the text-based question incorporated in the selected textbook of Pakistan Studies was not conducive to developing critical thinking skills among students. Except for one question, none of the questions fell under higher-order thinking levels of revised Bloom's taxonomy. Furthermore, based on analytic categories, text-based questions showed a little inclination towards the questions of clarification, whereas none represented other categories. Therefore, textbook developers need to focus on the induction of critical thinking skills in the text-based questions and tasks of textbooks.
Predynastic Egypt – the bosom of ancient egyptian civilization
Authors: Sherkova T. A.
Published: December 2020

This article is the result of many years of work devoted to the problem of the transition of the predynastic era of Egypt to the state. This transition period in the cultural and historical aspect contains both late-primitive phenomena and contents that indicate the development of society in the direction of social differentiation with the identification of aristocratic families headed by a social leader. These processes are reflected in the development of the archaeological culture of Naqada, which has passed through several phases of development, demonstrating the diversity of monuments, artifacts and pictorial texts that are the main sources for the pre-written era of Egypt. They are analyzed in the aspect of fundamental historical and cultural processes. Methodologically, this task is solved by using the developments and conclusions of a number of humanitarian scientific disciplines: semiotics, cultural studies, folklore, depth psychology, etc. This approach makes the research base, which is partly applied, more solid.
“Kulturkampf” as the confrontation of the catholic church and the imperial government of Germany in the 70s of the XIX century
Authors: Bespalova L. N.
Published: December 2020

The article is devoted to the analysis of the origins and content of the kulturkampf policy initiated by the German Reich Chancellor in the 1870s. The Struggle for Culture played a decisive role not only in the formation of the Center party as one of the most influential political parties of the Reichstag in the second half of the 19th century, but also in the history of Germany as a whole. The political orientation of the first German Reich Chancellor towards the strong secular state controlling and limiting church structures was initially in favor of the empire united in 1871 and in line with the trends of the times. But the Reich Chancellors harsh, restrictive laws led to police arbitrariness and infringement on the Catholic population of the German Empire. The author identifies the main reasons that led to the persecution and repression of the Catholic minority of the German Empire. The problems of the unification of the German Empire, particularism, federalism, ultramontanism and confessional conflicts are considered in close connection with the topic under study. The research is based on the works of Russian and German researchers and on the legislative acts of Prussia and the German Empire. In addition, the materials of parliamentary debates presented in the verbatim records of the Reichstag and extracts from the memoirs of contemporaries of the event were used.
O'Connell and the struggle for the emancipation of the catholics
Authors: Kochetkova M. V.
Published: December 2020

The aim of the study was to examine the most significant achievement in Irish Nationalism, which was embodied in the trend of moral force, the Emancipation of Catholics and the role of D. O'Connell in this process. After the introduction of the Union between Ireland and Great Britain in 1801, after the suppression of the 1803 uprising among the Irish nationalists, the apologists of the constitutional way of achieving self-government remained only one way, granting Catholics equal political rights. Automatically, Catholics were not prohibited from being elected as deputies or holding public office. But due to the fact that when entering these positions it was required to give the Crown a double oath, secular and religious, Anglican, Catholics could not give such a second oath. Consequently, Emancipation meant the liberation of Catholics from the religious part of the oath to the Crown. All attempts to pass a law on emancipation within the framework of Westminster ended in the defeat of the initiative of the Irish commoners, it became obvious that a different method of achieving the goal was needed. It was developed by the leader of the Nationalists D. O'Connell. The essence of the new system of struggle was to create a massive, regulated movement of the entire Nation for the political rights of Catholics. It included holding rallies, setting up a press of its own, and the introduction of a Catholic Rent designed to fund the movement from donations. Thus, for the first time in European history, a massive, nationwide, controlled movement was created. As a result of these innovations, Westminster passed the Catholic Emancipation Act in 1829. O'Connell's role in this victory was decisive.
The formation of the atomic industry in the Urals in the aspect of radiation safety
Authors: Bochkareva I. A.
Published: December 2020

This study examines the formation of the nuclear industry in the Urals from the perspective of radiation safety, identifies objective and subjective factors that led to problems in the field of radiation protection of nuclear facility personnel in the process of developing nuclear production, an assessment of the level and extent of radiation exposure to operating personnel. The author notes that the creation of the domestic nuclear industry took place in extremely difficult conditions of the post-war period and was fraught with many difficulties, especially at the initial stage of the formation of the nuclear industrial complex. During the years of commissioning and development of the first nuclear facilities, first of all, the industry pioneer the Mayak chemical plant, production personnel had to work under conditions of increased radioactive radiation. The experimental nature of plutonium production in the Urals, the novelty of the problem, the miscalculations and mistakes of designers and scientists, the extremely small amount of knowledge about the effects of radiation on a living organism, the secrecy regime and a number of other reasons led to the emergence of an emergency radiation situation at all main production facilities of the chemical plant, which entailed a significant re-irradiation of nuclear facility personnel. However, at that time, the problems of radiation protection of personnel did not have priority for the country's top political leadership. The main thing was to get plutonium for the first Soviet atomic bomb in the shortest possible time, regardless of the cost.
Economic ties between Ufa and Siberia in the late 19th and early 20th century
Authors: Rodnov M. I.
Published: December 2020

After the railroad had been built through the mountains of the Southern Urals in 18881892, the economic ties between Ufa and Siberian regions began to develop rapidly. Loads of Siberian grain poured westward to the European Russia markets through Ufa, and even the Chelyabinsk tariff wall could not hold it back. Ufa is located west of the Southern Urals, and the Trans-Ural cereals and the Siberian flour, produced by the mills in Chelyabinsk and Miass, entered the Ufa market without hindrance, creating competition for local producers. At the same time, starting from the early 1890s, caravans with Kyakhta (Chinese) tea, which used to have travelled to Irbit, went to the nearest railway station. From there tea was exported to Ufa that turned into a large centre of tea trade in Imperial Russia. The network of branches of the Volga-Kama Commercial Bank, established by the early 20th century, provided fast money transfers from Ufa to the main economic centres of Siberia and the Far East. The scope of transfers exceeded one million roubles in the 1900s. The main trading partners of Ufa in Siberia were Irkutsk, Kurgan, Omsk, and Tyumen. The last round of establishing the economic ties between Ufa and Siberia and the Far East took place during World War I. Provand for Ufa was purchased there.

Published: December 2020

Neste artigo resgatamos o histórico do Simpósio Internacional de Pesquisa em Educação Matemática (Sipemat), criado em 2006 e com edições posteriores em 2008, 2012, 2015 e 2018. Em particular, tratamos mais detalhadamente, as quatro primeiras edições que foram discutidas na mesa-redonda de abertura do 5º Sipemat, realizado em Belém do Pará na Universidade da Amazônia (Unama) e apontamos local e ano da futura sexta edição do simpósio. As quatro primeiras edições foram organizadas, respectivamente, por pesquisadores da Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE); Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco (UFRPE); Universidades Federal e Estadual do Ceará (UFC e UECE); e Universidade Estadual de Santa Cruz (UESC). Pensado para incentivar a realização, no Nordeste e Norte do Brasil, de eventos internacionais de pesquisa em Educação Matemática – regiões que ainda não possuíam a tradição de sediar eventos dessa natureza, o Sipemat tem sido bem sucedido nesse seu objetivo. A 1ª edição do evento teve como tema Pesquisa em Educação Matemática: um olhar ampliado sobre a sala de aula e promoveu reflexões sobre a melhoria do ensino e da aprendizagem da Matemática nos diversos níveis de escolarização. No 2º Sipemat, em continuidade, as temáticas centrais eram a Matemática do dia-a-dia e a Etnomatemática, ampliando espaços de discussão. No 3º Sipemat foram enfatizadas novas relações entre os tópicos: Matemática, Cultura e Tecnologia. Na 4ª edição adotou-se o tema Educação Matemática e contextos da diversidade cultural, na direção da consolidação do evento. O Sipemat caracteriza-se como evento firmado, pela sua regularidade e qualidade científica. Detalhes de cada edição do evento são apresentados neste artigo, tais como os referentes às apresentações (palestras, mesas-redondas, comunicações orais e pôsteres) e os endereços eletrônicos dos anais. Esperamos, assim, contribuir para o resgate histórico do Sipemat, bem como para a continuidade do evento – incentivando a ampla discussão de investigações em Educação Matemática e consequente melhorias no ensino e na aprendizagem de Matemática em nossas salas de aula.

Discutir a  formação de professores e ensino de matemáticana, no 5º Simpósio Internacional de Pesquisa em Educação Matemática (SIPEMAT), realizado em Belém –PA, em 2018,  na perspectiva sócio epistemológica para o estágio curricular no estudo da configuração do Estágio Curricular Supervisionado em instituições de ensino superior da Bahia foi nossa intençao neste artigo com vistas a ampliar os debates e enriquecer o conhecimento já produzido no Brasil sobre o assunto. A pesquisa foi operacionalizada com base nos documentos existentes nas instituições envolvidas incluindo depoimentos de um grupo amplo de sujeitos participantes. A situação revelada na configuração do estágio nas instituições pesquisadas está longe de ser caracterizada como ideal. São inúmeras as dificuldades, tensões e problemas enfrentados pelos estudantes e professores no dia a dia nos cursos de formação dos professores de Matemática e nas escolas públicas. Essas mesmas deficiências foram reveladas através das análises dos diferentes documentos construídos na pesquisa, como questionários, entrevistas, memoriais dos professores e relatórios.

Türkiye’de Eğitim Programı Uzmanı Olmak
Authors: BÜMEN Nilay
Published: December 2020

Bu çalışmada Türkiye’de merkeziyetçilik, toplumsal kutuplaşma ve bazı akademik kimlik sorunlarının (Amerikanizasyon ve İslamizasyon) eğitim programı uzmanına yansımaları ele alınmıştır. Bu bağlam içinde bu üç faktörün uzmanlara yüklediği sıkıntılar tartışılmış ve alanın durumu değerlendirilmiştir. Merkeziyetçilik; özerkliğin sınırlanmasına, yerel/kurumsal/bireysel ihtiyaçların ihmal edilmesine, profesyonellikten uzaklaşmaya ve aktarmacılığa yol açmaktadır. Toplumsal kutuplaşma; pasifleşmeye ve liyakatin değersizleşmesine neden olmaktadır. Bazı akademik kimlik sorunları ise (Amerikanizasyon ve İslamizasyon) kavram/kuram ithalatını ve toplumun ihtiyaçlarıyla bilimsel üretim arasındaki ilişkiye işaret eden dış tarih kavramının zayıflamasını doğurmaktadır. Dolayısıyla belirtilen üç sorun kaynağının (merkeziyetçilik, toplumsal kutuplaşma ve bazı akademik kimlik sorunları) Eğitim Programları ve Öğretim alanında uzun yıllardır varlığını koruyan kuramsal kısırlığa neden olduğu öne sürülebilir. Kuramlaştırma eksikliği olarak da tanımlanabilecek bu durum; akademik yayınlarda tek tipleşme ya da tekrarlılık, yayın etiği sorunları, şüpheli/korsan/yağmacı dergiler ve kongreler, anlama yerine anlatma çabası, unvan fetişizmi ve yayınlarda nitelik-nicelik ikilemi gibi durumlarla kendini göstermektedir. Kutuplaşma ekseninden sıyrılarak kavram ve kuram ithalatından kurtulmamız, aktarmacılıktan uzaklaşarak Türkiye’nin kendi ihtiyaçlarına dayalı bir eğitim programı paradigması oluşturmamız, iç ve dış tarihimizi güçlendirmemiz, alanımızın birincil görevi olan kamusal eğitimi iyileştirebilmemiz için tek seçeneğimiz anlama ve öğrenme çabasıyla yola çıkarak; düşünmek, düşünerek yaşamak ve üretmektir.

Published: December 2020

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Sosyal Bilgiler öğretiminde İşbirlikli Öğrenme yaklaşımının etkilerini konu alan, son 10 yılda Türkiye’de ve diğer ülkelerde yapılmış çalışmaların çeşitli süreçlerden geçirilerek sunulmasıdır. Meta sentez (tematik içerik analizi) yöntemi ile yürütülen araştırmaya, tam metin olarak ulaşılabilen ve çalışmada belirlenen ölçütleri sağlayan 36 araştırma, çalışma kapsamına alınarak, belirlenen ölçütler eşliğinde meta-sentez çalışması yapılmıştır. Bu doğrultuda araştırmada yer alacak olan çalışmalara ulaşabilmek amacıyla, BAU (Bahçeşehir Üniversitesi), ERIC (Education Resources Information Center), Google Scholar ve Education Source veri tabanlarında alan yazın taraması yapılmıştır. Ulaşılabilen makaleler, çeşitli değişkenler doğrultusunda incelenmiş ve “doküman analizi” tekniği kullanılarak, analiz ve sentez süreçlerinden geçirilerek derlenmiştir. Meta-sentez sonucunda, sosyal bilgiler öğretiminde yapılandırmacı yaklaşım doğrultusunda kullanılan İşbirlikli Öğrenme yöntem ve tekniklerinin, hem akademik başarı, tutum, sosyal gelişim, motivasyon ve öz-yeterlik gibi öğrenmeyi etkileyen pek çok değişken üzerinde, hem de öğrencilerin okuduğunu anlama ve kavrama düzeylerinde olumlu yönde etki ve değişikliğe yol açtığı görülmüştür. Öğrencilerin hem bireysel hem de grup düzeyinde başarılarının artması dışında, demokratik tutumlarını geliştirme, öz-denetim, tarihsel bilinç/duyarlılık ve empatik yaklaşım kazanma, çok kültürlülüğe dair kavramların öğretilmesi ve anlaşılması gibi konularda da öğrencileri geliştirici ve destekleyici olduğu bulunmuştur. Bu doğrultuda, yöntemin etkililiğine etki eden pek çok değişken vardır ve çalışma sonuçları, diğer çalışmalarla benzerlik göstermektedir.
Model argumentacyjny jako narzędzie urzeczywistniania prawa jednostki do sądu (na przykładzie orzeczeń sądów administracyjnych zapadających w tzw. okresie odroczenia)
Authors: Sarnowiec-Cisłak Marta
Published: December 2020

The argumentative model of applying law helps to provide „the right for a better quality judgment“ for all citizens. A good example of such relations are decisions of administrative courts made after the Constitutional Tribunal issues a judgment which delays the date of an unconstitutional law becoming ineffective. In such situations, the court faces a conflict of values, i.e. the issue of unconstitutional relevant legal basis against the arguments behind the further applying, or refusing to apply, defective regulations in a given case. By resorting to the discursive paradigm, administrative courts can search for pro-constitutional solutions while taking into the position of a citizen in relations with administrative authorities. Although the argumentative model of arriving at solutions poses a challenge to the court, it seems to be better suited to requirements of ensuring the citizen‘s right to the administrative court and the standards of judiciary which follow that right, by making it easier to create an environment of a dialogue with the citizen and by creating a framework for sufficient guarantee of citizen‘s rights when faced by the public authorities.

This study evaluated the insecticidal activity of Gallesia integrifoliaessential oil from fruits, leaves, and flowers against Aedes aegyptilarvae and pupae. The essential oil was obtained by hydrodistillation and characterized by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Sulfur compounds represented 95 to 99% of the essential oil from fruits, leaves, and flowers. Essential oil major compounds were 2,8-dithianonane (52.6%) in fruits, 3,5-dithiahexanol-5,5-dioxide (38.9%) in leaves, and methionine ethyl ester (45.3%) in flowers. The essential oils showed high activity against larvae, and low for pupae withLC99.9of 5.87 and 1476.67μg/mL from fruits; 0.0096 and 348.33 μg/mL from leaves and 0.021and 342.84 μg/mL from flowers, respectively. The main compound with insecticide activity is probably n-ethyl-1,3-dithioisoindole, from isoindole organothiophosphate class, found in greater amount in flower and leaf essential oil. The great insecticide activity of G. integrifoliaessential oil suggests that this product is a natural insecticide.
