Authors: López-Andrada Concepción
Published: March 2021

This article analyzes the figure of the reader and the challenges facing this through the transformations that occur in the digital world from the perspective of the teaching-learning. It is understood the reader of the XXI century as a user and creator of content on the network. Reading is one of the main practices of access to knowledge, and also works as an engine of social power that articulates shared web 2.0. Thus, definitions of literacy and reading skills are changing, as these not only have to consider the linear reading of printed texts, but also have to be extended to reading practices in new media and technological devices. a review of research and models that describe a corpus of work that brings together evidence and international results regarding formatting preferences, learning styles, skills development and strategies of reading on screen and / or reading in digital environments is presented.At the end of the work prospects are proposed to rethink the role of digital reader, where the social dimension of reading practices becomes more consideration, and where also the roles developed by the reader multiply.
Preconceptos y enseñanza de la escritura y la lectura en la formación inicial de los estudiantes de Magisterio
Authors: Díez Mediavilla Antonio , Güemes Suárez Luis , Molina Molina María
Published: March 2021

Las nuevas perspectivas aportadas por la crítica durante los últimos años nos empujan a plantear pautas de actuación didáctica de carácter claramente renovador en lo que se refiere a la consideración teórica y a las estrategias de actuación didáctica relacionadas con el aprendizaje de la lectoescritura. Conocer los preconceptos sobre los que han de operar los nuevos modelos de actuación didáctica resulta un requisito de especial utilidad a la hora de planificar la formación de los nuevos maestros. A tal fin, se ha seleccionado un grupo de 345 estudiantes de tercero de Magisterio en la especialidad de Primaria, a quienes se las ha pasado un cuestionario con una escala Likert de 4 puntos de respuesta (totalmente de acuerdo, de acuerdo, en desacuerdo, totalmente en desacuerdo) sobre distintos ámbitos relacionados con la enseñanza y desarrollo de las habilidades lecto-escritoras que nos permitirán conocer aquellas creencias o preconceptos que constituyen el magma operativo sobre el que habría que determinar qué aspectos deben reconducirse o completarse para la adecuada formación didáctica de los futuros maestros.
Government Size and Quality of Governance: Does State Size Matter?
Authors: Pevcin Primož
Published: March 2021

Purpose: Small state studies has emerged as a discipline, and this discipline has been initially dominated mainly by the issues of vulnerability and a lack of capacities of small states, although these issues have been gradually replaced by the discussions on the potential opportunities of small states, not just their challenges. Within this framework, the consideration needs to be done also on the effect of the state size on the economics, governance and public management, among others. Design/methodology/approach: The current theorizing in small state studies focuses on the specifics of the small economy modelling and governance. The existing economic literature has occasionally stressed the relations between the size of the state and size of government, but with rather mixed empirical results. Moreover, relations between state size and quality of governance has also been emerging issue. This study would like to integrate both approaches. The empirical research utilizes cross-national comparative investigation based on the data for 44 European states; and we specifically assess, in addition to the existing approaches, how budgetary and non-budgetary scope of government differentiates among smaller and larger states. Findings: The results of the study suggest that the effect of the size of the state does not necessary favour larger states in respect to the smaller size of government and quality of governance. Thus, although potential scale economies matter regarding the public services’ provision, the structure of spending, institutional context, and innovations in public service delivery modes also have the role in shaping scope and functions of the government, whereas quality of governance seems to be independent regarding the state size, at least in the European context. Research limitations/implications: Analysis is limited to the cluster of European states, and the results should be interpreted within this context. Originality/value: After the World War II the number of states has increased substantially, in fact, it has tripled. We are currently living in the era of small states, as more than one third of the existing two hundred and more states around the globe are actually small, if we assess the multiple criteria combination. In this context, this paper would like to add to the development of the field of small state studies.
The Uncertain Future of the Fair Housing Act: HUD’s Recent Changes to Disparate Impact Standard
Authors: Powers Leah
Published: March 2021

In 2013, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) published its Disparate Impact Final Rule in which it sought to formalize its longstanding interpretation of disparate impact liability under the Fair Housing Act (FHA) by setting forth a three-part burden-shifting framework. HUD subsequently revisited its disparate impact standard following the 2015 Supreme Court ruling in Inclusive Communities and published a Proposed Rule on August 19, 2019. On September 24, 2020, HUD published a new Final Rule substantially altering the disparate impact standard laid out by the 2013 Rule.

This Comment will analyze the similarities and differences between the disparate impact standard in the 2013 Rule and the standard set forth in the current, 2020 Rule. Additionally, given that the 2020 Rule was drafted in response to Inclusive Communities, this Comment will examine whether, and to what extent, the 2020 Rule is consistent with the Court’s ruling. Finally, this Comment will address the criticism leveled at the 2020 Rule by fair housing advocates and explore potential consequences of the new standard. Ultimately, this Comment will argue that, although the 2020 Rule finds some textual support in Inclusive Communities for several elements of its new framework, given the broad remedial purpose of the FHA, the core mission of HUD to eradicate housing discrimination, the potential, negative consequences of the new standard, and President Biden’s recent memorandum on housing discrimination, HUD should abandon the 2020 Rule and readopt the 2013 Rule.

The local Hamiltonian problem on a line with eight staes is QMA-complete
Authors: Hallgren Sean , Nagaj Daniel , Narayanaswami Sandeep
Published: March 2021

The Local Hamiltonian problem is the problem of estimating the least eigenvalue of a local Hamiltonian, and is complete for the class QMA. The 1D problem on a chain of qubits has heuristics which work well, while the 13-state qudit case has been shown to be QMA-complete. We show that this problem remains QMA-complete when the dimensionality of the qudits is brought down to 8.
Faster phase estimation
Authors: Svore Krysta M. , Hastings Matthew B. , Freedman Michael
Published: March 2021

We develop several algorithms for performing quantum phase estimation based on basic measurements and classical post-processing. We present a pedagogical review of quantum phase estimation and simulate the algorithm to numerically determine its scaling in circuit depth and width. We show that the use of purely random measurements requires a number of measurements that is optimal up to constant factors, albeit at the cost of exponential classical post-processing; the method can also be used to improve classical signal processing. We then develop a quantum algorithm for phase estimation that yields an asymptotic improvement in runtime, coming within a factor of $\log^*$ of the minimum number of measurements required while still requiring only minimal classical post-processing. The corresponding quantum circuit requires asymptotically lower depth and width (number of qubits) than quantum phase estimation.
How Educational Developers can Re-engage Mid-Career Faculty Using SoTL
Authors: Hamilton Melanie , Simmons Nicola
Published: March 2021

Mid-career faculty (MCF) currently make up a significant number of faculty at higher educational institutions. This group comprises key stakeholders with institutional history, diverse teaching and learning experiences, and strong relationships with colleagues. While faculty need different kinds of support and opportunities at different career stages, it has been reported that mid-career professional development is under-researched and overlooked. We contend that professional development for MCF is essential if these faculty are going to continue to grow as educators, leaders, and scholars. With the support of Educational Developers (EDs), the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) is one way for faculty to focus their professional development in the middle years of their career. Drawing on the literature about challenges for MCF and using the micro-meso-macro-mega framework, we explore ways in which EDs can use SoTL to re-engage MCF on a revitalized path. Our synthesis offers reflections on our career experiences as EDs and boundary-spanning points to ponder for both EDs and MCF as they enter into SoTL engagement.

TNFRSF9 is differentially expressed in the lymph nodes of patients with metastatic breast cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: March 2021

Metastasis to the brain is a clinical problem in patients with breast cancer (1-3). Between the breast and the brain reside the secondary lymphoid organ, the lymph nodes. We mined published microarray data (4, 5) to compare primary and metastatic tumor transcriptomes for the discovery of genes associated with metastasis to the lymph nodes in humans with metastatic breast cancer. We found that TNF receptor superfamily member 9, TNFRSF9, was among the genes whose expression was most different in the lymph node metastases of patients with metastatic breast cancer as compared to primary tumors of the breast. TNFRSF9 mRNA was present at increased quantities in lymph node metastases as compared to primary tumors of the breast. Importantly, expression of TNFRSF9 in primary tumors of the breast was correlated with patient overall survival, in lymph node negative patients but not in lymph node positive patients. Modulation of TNFRSF9 expression may be relevant to the biology by which tumor cells metastasize from the breast to the lymph nodes and the brain in humans with metastatic breast cancer.
In Pursuit of Knowledge: Preschoolers Expect Agents to Weigh Information Gain and Information Cost When Deciding Whether to Explore
Authors: Aboody Rosie , Zhou Caiqin , Jara-Ettinger Julian
Published: March 2021

When deciding whether to explore, agents must consider both their need for information and its cost. Do children recognize that exploration reflects a trade-off between action costs and expected information gain, inferring epistemic states accordingly? In two experiments, 4- and 5-year-olds (N=144; of diverse race and ethnicity) judge that an agent who refuses to obtain low-cost information must have already known it, and an agent who incurs a greater cost to gain information must have a greater epistemic desire. Two control studies suggest that these findings cannot be explained by low-level associations between competence and knowledge. Our results suggest that preschoolers’ Theory of Mind includes expectations about how costs interact with epistemic desires and states to produce exploratory action.
A cross-cultural study of the effect of parental bonding on the perception and response to criticism in Singapore, Italy and USA
Authors: Neoh Michelle Jin Yee , Carollo Alessandro , Bonassi Andrea , Mulatti Claudio , Lee Albert , Esposito Gianluca
Published: March 2021

Parents play a primary and crucial role in emotional socialisation processes in children where individuals learn the expression, understanding and regulation of emotions. Parenting practices and dimensions of the parent-child relationship have been associated with social and emotional processes in children. As criticism involves negative emotional reactions and emotion regulation, the parent-child relationship is likely to influence an individual’s perception and response to criticism. Hence, the present study investigated the relationship of parental bonding and the perception and response to criticism in three different countries – Singapore, Italy and USA. Adult participants (n = 444) completed the Parental Bonding Inventory (PBI) and measures of criticism. Parental care, overprotection and country were found to be significant predictors of a tendency to perceive criticism as destructive. Higher levels of parental care predicted a lower tendency to perceive criticism as destructive while higher levels of parental overprotection predicted a higher tendency to perceive criticism as destructive. US American participants were found to have a significantly higher tendency to perceive criticism as destructive compared to Italian and Singaporean participants. The findings align with past research on the role of the parent-child relationship in the socio-emotional development of children as well as providing insight into a specific aspect in social interaction; perception and response to criticism, being affected. Future studies can look to investigate this relationship further in different countries in light of cultural variation in parenting styles and emotion experience, expression and regulation.
Social Change and Modernity: Identity Crisis of the Bonda Tribe in Pratibha Ray’s The Primal Land
Authors: Chitra S. , Tenzin Sangay
Published: March 2021

Pratibha Ray’s anthropological novel The Primal Land (1993) documents the history of India’s endangered Bonda tribe dwelling in the secluded mountains of Koraput, Odisha. Not free from the interferences of the outside world, the Bondas face the threat of losing their tribal identity. This complicated position and their struggle between existence and identity, an intersubjective reality, was triggered by oppressive internal and external surroundings due to the pressures of modernity. The discussion focuses on their inherent cultural practices causingconstant internal feuds and the government’s intrusion with development plans leading to exploitation, cultural dilution, and socio-ethnic tension. Thus the paper decodes the difficulties of the Bondas and concludes that their existence cannot be ensured without the loss of primal identity.

EKOKRITIK SASTRA DALAM PUISI TALANG DI LANGIT FALASTIN KARYA DHENI KURNIA
Authors: Aris Qori Islami
Published: March 2021

One of the literary works is poetry. Poetry can be a medium for poets to convey ideas, concepts and thoughts. One of these ideas and thoughts is based on the observations of the environment. It implies that poetry is also related to other fields of study. One of the fields of study that can be related to literary works is ecocriticism. Ecocritics is focused on the relationship between literature and the environment or how the relationship between humans and their physical world are reflected in literary works. In this study, the writer tries to analyze the poetry Talang di Langit Falastin written by Dheni Kurnia through the concept of echocritics as an analytical lens. The result of this study shows that Talang di Langit Falastin illustrates environmental exploitation and pollution caused by political and economic factors. This poem becomes interesting because the poet analogized Talang Mamak and Palestine which are equally oppressed, causing environmental destruction and exploitation. The destruction of the environment in Palestine was caused by the Zionist invaders who bombarded with bombs and nuclear weapons, while the environmental destruction in Talang Mamak was carried out by capitalists who burned forests to open the new land for economic interests that affected the misery of living things in the environment.

Consumer Choices Can Reduce Packaging Waste
Authors: Berger Kenneth R.
Published: March 2021

When all packaging is accounted for, it adds up to about one-third of all the trash that's thrown away in the United States. Industry and business are responsible for most of this waste, but consumer product packaging accounts for about 15 percent of what's discarded. When you purchase a frozen dinner, you are paying for not only the meal but for the outer paperboard box, the plastic or foil tray that holds the meal, and the covering over the food. You pay again for packaging, directly or indirectly, when your garbage is picked up and disposed of in a landfill or incinerator. Some communities are moving toward "pay-as-you-throw" fees for every bag put out at the curb, so it makes sense to reduce household waste. Composting, recycling, and reusing items all help. And by shopping carefully you can reduce excess packaging that you would throw away.

False Blister Beetles, (Insecta: Coleoptera: Oedemeridae)
Authors: Arnett, Jr. Ross H.
Published: March 2021

"False blister beetles," sometimes known also as "pollen feeding beetles," are unique in that adults of all the approximately 1,000 species in the world are obligate pollen feeders. They obtain their common name because many species cause blisters when pinched or squashed against the skin. Being pollen feeders, they are often common on flowers. They are also attracted to lights, and their numbers can be vast at night, especially on the Florida Keys. Oxycopis mcdonaldi (Arnett) causes skin blistering and makes itself a nuisance at resort areas where the beetles are attracted by night lights around swimming pools, tennis courts, and open air restaurants. Yet another species, Nacerdes melanura (L.), the "wharf borer," is common around wood pilings where its larvae bore into and weaken the wood of docks and adjacent buildings. This document is EENY-154 (originally published as DPI Entomology Circular 259), one of a series of Featured Creatures from the Entomology andNematology Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

Fertile egg production and incubation and production of broiler meat are both an art and a science. Man has taken full control of incubating fertile eggs by artificial means to supply the increasing world demand for poultry meat. It is estimated that worldwide more than 30 billion broiler fertile eggs are incubated annually. If eggs were still incubated naturally and broilers raised in small backyard farms, the poultry industry would not have been able to grow and prosper as it has and supply the world demand for poultry products. This document is VM133, one of a series of the Veterinary Medicine-Large Animal Clinical Sciences Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

Published: March 2021

The prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) increases with age. Older patients have an increased likelihood for T2DM-related morbidity and mortality. The dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor vildagliptin is approved for use as monotherapy and combination therapy in type 2 diabetes mellitus. This article reviews the clinical efficacy and tolerability of vildagliptin in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, as well as summarizing its pharmacological properties. Improvements in glycaemic control were also seen with vildagliptin in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes and in patients with type 2 diabetes and moderate or severe renal impairment. Vildagliptin was generally well tolerated in patients with type 2 diabetes, was weight neutral and was associated with a low risk of hypoglycemia, reflecting its glucose-dependent mechanism of action. The elderly population with T2DM poses unique treatment challenges and have not been particularly well-represented in clinical trials, highlighting the need for additional studies to better define appropriate glucose targets and to ascertain the best strategies for achieving and maintaining appropriate glycaemic levels. In conclusion, vildagliptin is an important option for use in combination with metformin, a sulfonylurea or a thiazolidinedione in patients with type 2 diabetes who require combination therapy.

The spread of the Corona virus that has spread to various parts of the world has an impact on the Indonesian economy, both in terms of trade, investment and tourism. In Indonesia, the spread of this virus began on March 2, 2020, many sectors of the economy were affected by this pandemic. Thousands of companies were forced to temporarily close to limit the spread of the virus, resulting in reduced levels of activity in the arts, entertainment and recreation, as well as in real estate agencies and IT companies, however, there are some sectors of the economy that are still able to survive. If we compare it in the gold trading sector, the data shows a large increase in the estimated price for 2020 ytd of US $ 1,830 / troys ounce, even the prediction of the average price in 2021 also shows a constant increasing number. This is what has made the gold business popular because many people consider the price of gold to be more stable during this pandemic. Now the government is trying to open several business sectors and continues to encourage SMEs to carry out online activities, but still in the regions and gradually increase tax revenue. In order to maintain business continuity that saves the national economy, the government has implemented various socio-economic policy programs, including incentive policies and tax facilities that can be utilized by taxpayers. In order to maintain business continuity that saves the national economy, the government has implemented various socio-economic policy programs, including incentive policies and tax facilities that can be utilized by taxpayers. The government has also provided a policy on interest rates and airplane ticket prices so that people are still interested in visiting several discount cities for tourist destinations due to the existence of Covid-19 which has greatly impacted the tourism sector. The crisis due to Covid-19 is currently occurring simultaneously, so that the impact is felt by vulnerable groups who are getting worse, including business groups that need mass crowds, groups of casual daily workers, street vendors, workers affected by layoffs, farmers, the community poor, and so on.
Predisposing and Enabling Factors Relationship with Successful Treatment of Pulmonary Tuberculosis (TB)
Authors: Pulungan Rafiah Maharani , Permatasari Putri
Published: March 2021

The increase in pulmonary TB cases is related to the success of treatment. Rough treatment will lead to multi-drug resistant TB (MDR TB). The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship of Predisposing, and enabling factors with the successful treatment of pulmonary TB in the Cikulur Community Health Center, Lebak Regency. This study used a Case-control research design. The sampling technique was purposive sampling, and a sample size of 82 people. The independent variables were predisposing factors (age, gender, education level, employment status, motivation, knowledge and attitudes), enabling factors (medication adherence, drug side effects, and access to health facilities). The dependent variable was the success of TB treatment. Data analysis using Chi-Square test and multiple logistic regression. The results showed that a person with pulmonary TB with non-working status, adherence to treatment, and access to health facilities was 5.002 times easy to succeed in TB treatment. The factors most related to the success of treatment were occupational status, medication adherence and access to health facilities. It is suggested that health services need to increase the accessibility of TB patients in the fulfillment of treatment so that patients can improve their success in recovery in therapy. Also, sufferers take medication regularly and according to the recommendations for success of treatment
Americans performing Afro-Brazilian maracatu and afoxé : Navigating Race, Religion, Appropriation, and the Potential of Anti-Racist Pedagogy
Authors: LaFevers Cory
Published: March 2021

Austin, Texas is home to one of the largest Brazilian music scenes in North America. Significantly, the vast majority of participants are white Americans and the genres performed are almost entirely Afro-Brazilian. This setting presents a unique opportunity for Performance-as-Research into the embodied performance of transnational racial formations. This article examines teaching, learning, and performing maracatu-nação and afoxé, musics explicitly linked to Afro-matrix religions. I ask what Austinites typically learn about Brazilian society and the religious significance of the music they perform, highlighting the disjuncture that exists between the commonly held view of Brazilian genres as fun and sexy dance music, and the social justice concerns—racism, cultural appropriation, and religious intolerance to name a few—at the core of maracatu and afoxé. I trace how performers navigate their own concerns about religious expression and respectful engagement, including debates around the cultural appropriation of maracatu-nação in Brazil. I argue that experiences gained in performance are essential components in implementing anti-racist pedagogies that advance efforts to optimize cross-cultural understanding and sustain engagement with communities by facilitating collaborations between culture-bearers, academics, and artists.

Devices that automatically shut down the working mechanisms when they are overloaded include friction, electromagnetic and other couplings. They allow adjusting the amount of allowable torque and automatically turning on the mechanisms when the overload stops. According to the results of the implementation of the planned factor experiments, the regression equations are obtained, which describe the change of the braking torque of the output shaft of the inertial safety clutch. The results of the study are the prerequisites for the development of methods for substantiating the rational parameters of the operation of inertial safety clutches.

Este artigo objetivou comparar o efeito da simulação clínica de alta fidelidade com o ensino tradicional em laboratório de habilidades e com a primeira experiência clínica em instituições de saúde na ansiedade do graduando em enfermagem. Empregou-se o de ensaio clínico randomizado realizado com estudantes de graduação em enfermagem, entre 2015 e 2016. Os participantes foram aleatorizados em grupo controle - aula teórica e prática em laboratório de habilidades, e grupo experimental - aula teórica, prática em laboratório de habilidades e simulação de alta fidelidade. A ansiedade foi avaliada, antes e após as práticas em laboratório e a primeira experiência clínica. Como resultados foram incluídos 54 participantes (25 – controle; 27 – experimental). Durante a simulação o grupo experimental apresentou ansiedade elevada. Antes da primeira experiência clínica os grupos não diferiram, contudo, após, o grupo controle apresentou aumento significativo da ansiedade (p=0,0372), enquanto o grupo experimental apresentou redução significativa (p=0,0247). Conclui-se que a simulação eleva a ansiedade, mas parece contribuir para diminuição da ansiedade frente a primeira experiência clínica em instituições de saúde. REBEC:RBR-352v3G.

O presente trabalho consiste em analisar os dados de focos de calor e uso e cobertura do solo entre os anos de 2000 a 2019 para o município de Poconé-MT. Os dados de focos de calor foram adquiridos no formato shapefile dos presentes satélites: AQUA, ATSR, METOP, MSG, NOAA, NPP, TRMM, TERRA, GOES do sensor MODIS por permite analisar as tendências temporais. Os dados de uso e cobertura do solo foram obtidos por meio do programa Mapbiomas. Em relação aos focos de calor para os anos estudados, observou-se que, em quase toda a extensão do município foi recoberta por focos de calor no ano de 2019. Em todo período estudado (2000 a 2019) ocorreu o aumento dos focos de calor em cerca de 22 vezes, fato este nunca observado antes na história de monitoramento espacial por satélite. A partir dos dados coletados foi possível identificar que aproximadamente 90% dos focos de calor ocorreram nos meses de setembro a dezembro. Neste identificou-se cerca de 27.005 focos de calor incidentes sobo município de Poconé, sendo assim, nesses meses devem se intensificar ações de fiscalização pela defesa civil e órgãos ambientais visando coibir queimadas ilegais e acidentes junto à população. Com o aumento da criação de gado e da agricultura nessas áreas é necessário manter os sistemas de monitoramento ambiental como os do INPE, com segurança e clareza, a fim de contribuir com medidas de gerenciamento dos recursos naturais. Nesse sentido, os resultados alcançados no presente estudo auxiliam na prevenção e no combate de incêndios florestais e nas mudanças no uso e cobertura do solo, criando assim subsídios para possíveis mecanismos e políticas públicas voltadas para o planejamento do território.

A pesquisa faz uma abordagem sobre a biomassa cafeeira, que é uma fonte de bioenergia de grande relevância econômica para o país, maior produtor de grãos beneficiados do mundo. A palha de café é um resíduo do cultivo cafeeiro com alto potencial devido à possibilidade de retorno ao solo de grande parte dos nutrientes absorvidos durante a formação dos frutos. Nessa perspectiva o objetivo do presente estudo é compreender o potencial bioenergético dos resíduos provenientes do beneficiamento da biomassa cafeeira. Para observar a propriedade, descrever o beneficiamento e estudar o potencial bioenergético do resíduo do café, a metodologia utilizada foi de natureza aplicada, abordagem qualitativa e, para atingir o objetivo foi utilizada pesquisa bibliográfica exploratória e pesquisa a campo. Como resultado pode-se afirmar que a palha proveniente do processo de beneficiamento da biomassa cafeeira é devolvida ao solo como adubo orgânico o que consequentemente diminui os custos com a adubação química e favorece a sustentabilidade no meio rural. Na fase de implantação da lavoura cafeeira a utilização da palha constitui-se em fonte de nutrientes e matéria orgânica. Neste contexto, o estudo apresenta o conceito e aproveitamento dessa fonte de bioenergia e aspectos importantes da biomassa do café como sua estrutura e etapas do beneficiamento. Contudo, com o presente estudo foi possível constatar que a biomassa cafeeira se constitui uma importante fonte bioenergética.
