Published: December 2024

A aprendizagem adaptativa é uma abordagem educacional que utiliza tecnologias avançadas para personalizar o ensino conforme as necessidades individuais dos alunos. A plataforma brasileira Jovens Gênios exemplifica essa metodologia ao integrar inteligência artificial (IA) e gamificação para aprimorar a experiência educacional. Fundada em 2018, a Jovens Gênios desenvolveu uma plataforma que aplica a Teoria de Resposta ao Item (TRI) e algoritmos de IA para identificar o nível de proficiência dos estudantes em diversas habilidades. Com um banco de mais de 70 mil questões parametrizadas por TRI, a plataforma oferece diagnósticos por testes adaptativos, permitindo a personalização do aprendizado e a redução de defasagens educacionais. Além disso, a gamificação é utilizada para aumentar o engajamento dos alunos, tornando o processo de aprendizagem mais interativo e motivador. A plataforma também disponibiliza recursos para professores, como a criação de atividades com correção automática e relatórios de desempenho em tempo real, facilitando o acompanhamento do progresso dos alunos. Desde sua implementação, a Jovens Gênios atendeu mais de 300 mil alunos e foi recomendada por mais de 700 instituições de ensino parceiras. Os resultados indicam um aumento significativo no engajamento dos estudantes e na melhoria da proficiência em diversas disciplinas. A plataforma demonstra que a integração de IA e gamificação pode transformar positivamente o cenário educacional, oferecendo uma experiência de aprendizagem personalizada e eficaz. Conclui-se que a aprendizagem adaptativa, exemplificada pela Jovens Gênios, representa uma inovação promissora na educação, com potencial para atender às necessidades individuais dos alunos e melhorar os resultados educacionais de forma significativa.

O estudo analisou as principais lesões em atletas amadores de vôlei de areia, com enfoque nas causas, sintomas e impacto sobre o desempenho esportivo. Foram investigados 25 atletas, utilizando questionários estruturados. Os resultados indicaram que as articulações mais afetadas são ombros (24%), tornozelos (12%), joelhos (16%) e lombar (12%), destacando que movimentos explosivos e aterrissagens aumentam o risco de lesões. Além disso, 28% relataram instabilidade articular, enquanto 36% apresentaram sinais visíveis de lesão, como inchaço e vermelhidão. A instabilidade do tornozelo e dores no joelho foram associadas a fatores biomecânicos e sobrecargas crônicas. Conclui-se que a ausência de suporte técnico adequado e a falta de estratégias de prevenção eficazes contribuem significativamente para a ocorrência de lesões entre atletas amadores de vôlei de areia. Assim, é essencial implementar medidas preventivas e programas de fortalecimento para minimizar os riscos e promover a prática segura do esporte.

O planejamento urbano exige resultados em termos de mobilidade sustentável. Para ser sustentável, este planejamento demanda ampla participação dos diversos atores e organizações, contudo a população leiga nem sempre aparenta ter conhecimento técnico para subsidiar as escolhas de veículos automotores (a exemplo: veículos movidos por combustível fóssil versus veículos elétricos), tornando- as mais conscientes quanto aos seus impactos da ação local no desenvolvimento sustentável em escala global. Portanto, o objetivo geral deste estudo preliminar foi: Definir critérios com atributos para um modelo AHP que foi nomeado de Green Moving Car (GMC) e caracterizar alternativas a serem testadas (veículos movidos por combustível fóssil versus veículos elétricos). Essa pesquisa preliminar, de caráter exploratório, descritivo e de natureza qualitativa e quantitativa, foi executada através de dois passos: (1) Revisão de Escopo e (2) Pesquisa documental. Os resultados permitiram a decomposição do problema em quatro dimensões chave com base na literatura científica: (1) Energia propulsora; (2) Infraestrutura e serviços; (3) Sustentabilidade Ambiental; (4) Sustentabilidade Econômica, e caracterizar as alternativas detalhadamente: (a) Carro Elétrico; (b) Carro movido a energia fóssil. Os resultados da presente etapa (definição de critérios e caracterização das alternativas) contribuem como a formulação futura e teste do modelo AHP Green Moving Car (GMC), que é uma ferramenta promissora para educar a população leiga sobre escolhas conscientes relativas a veículos automotores na atualidade.

O Método Trezentos é uma metodologia de ensino-aprendizagem ativa que preconiza a construção do aprendizado por meio da discussão entre pares, a partir do debruçar sobre os erros, de forma colaborativa e mutuamente vantajosa. Ambos ganham no processo: ajudantes e ajudados. O trabalho foi desenvolvido no período de setembro/2022 (relativo ao semestre 2022/1) a junho/2024 (relativo ao semestre 2023/2) para os estudantes matriculados na disciplina de Imunologia de três cursos da área da saúde do campus sede de uma universidade federal do interior do estado de Minas Gerais, sendo que nos semestres letivos de 2022/1 e 2022/2 todos os estudantes dos três cursos participaram do Método Trezentos como estratégia de recuperação processual na disciplina. Já nos semestres letivos seguintes (2023/1 e 2023/2) a disciplina transcorreu, nos três cursos, sem a utilização do método. Os resultados demonstraram diferença estatisticamente significativa entre o desempenho daqueles que participaram em relação àqueles que não participaram do método. Conclui-se, portanto, que o Método Trezentos é uma excelente ferramenta para se trabalhar a recuperação processual em disciplinas da área da saúde, contribuindo para a redução dos índices de retenção (e consequentemente de evasão) que atrelam os vários cursos da educação superior no país.

Published: December 2024

Although some published studies have challenged the importance and efficacy of written corrective feedback (WCF), ESL/EFL tutors continue to value its practice and provide WCF to their students in spite of their time and workload constraints. The development of various automated-feedback applications over the last few years contributed to our understanding of what machine-operated feedback is capable of in comparison to teachers. The release of OpenAI’s ChatGPT in 2022 has taken the world by surprise. This AI-operated tool has attracted the attention of students, teachers and researchers in the field of L2 teaching and learning. There are now claims that it has the capabilities for providing WCF on written output. The overarching aim of this study is to compare the quantity and quality of analytical corrective feedback provided and moderated by trained classroom teachers with ChatGPT-generated feedback on the written output of a group of students (English Level CEFR B1) attending an EAP course at an international branch campus of a UK university. Both teachers and ChatGPT used the same analytical marking criteria to mark students’ essays and provide feedback on language use and use of academic vocabulary and style. Analysis of results provided valuable insights into the adequacy of the feedback strategy, guidance and polarity, offering a foundation and guidelines for future endeavours to optimize the integration of AI-generated feedback within L2 contexts. Implications and recommendations regarding the potentials/future of using ChatGPT as a feedback tool in L2 are discussed.

Authors: Reddy Bhargava , B Sambasiva Reddy , K Mahesh , R Hari Prasad Reddy , Tony D. Eswar , Nadendla Rama Rao
Published: December 2024

Background: Mosquitoes transmit severe diseases, including malaria, dengue, and Zika virus, necessitating effective mosquito repellents. While traditional repellents are typically sprays or lotions, these can be inconvenient and leave residues. A more convenient alternative is mosquito repellent gel, offering ease of application, lasting effects, and a more enjoyable user experience. This study focuses on a gel-based mosquito-repelling air freshener containing lemongrass oil, known for its mosquito-repelling properties and fresh citrus-like scent.
Methodology: The study developed a mosquito repellent gel infused with lemongrass oil, containing active constituents such as neral, isoneral, and limonene. Sensory assessments evaluated the gel’s color and odor using 150 individual’s comments, and a hedonic test was conducted with 180 participants aged between 25-30 to assess product acceptability when applied to clothing and inanimate objects. To determine the longevity of the gel, total liquid evaporation was measured by weight loss over a four-week period, and the repellent's effectiveness was tested in a closed room.
Results: Sensory assessment confirmed an acceptable color and a citrus-like odor for the gel, while the hedonic test indicated a favorable user response. Weight loss calculations demonstrated the gel's sustained presence over time. The closed-room test confirmed the gel's effectiveness in repelling mosquitoes.
Conclusion: The lemongrass oil-based mosquito repellent gel is a promising alternative to traditional repellents, offering both user convenience and effective mosquito protection. Its long-lasting formula and positive sensory characteristics make it a viable option for personal and environmental use in mosquito-prone areas.
The Burden of Bacteria Pathogens Associated with Cage-cultured Nile Tilapia, (Oreochromis niloticus) along the Mwanza Gulf of Lake Victoria, Tanzania
Authors: Komba Richard S. , Kimaro Esther G. , Mwita Chacha J.
Published: December 2024

The recently intensified aquaculture projects in Mwanza Gulf of Lake Victoria, Tanzania, have brought about incidences of increased pathogenic bacteria in the lake waters. In some instances, there have been reports of disease outbreaks in cage-farmed fish. This study aimed to identify the prevalence of selected pathogenic bacteria in Nile tilapia, (Oreochromis niloticus) cage-cultured along the gulf. A total of 250 fish from the cage farms and control site were sampled. Bacteria were isolated and identified from the samples through standard bacterial techniques. A total of 10 bacteria genera were identified, where, staphylococcus spp. had the highest prevalence with 34.5%, pseudomonas spp. at 25.9%, Streptococcus spp. at 10.5%, then Lactococuss spp. 15.5%. These results suggest intensive cage farming is likely the main risk factor for increased bacterial prevalence in the gulf. Henceforth, biosecurity measures must be intensified for sustainable healthy fish farming in cages along the Mwanza Gulf.
COGNITIVE ARBITRAGE: THE OUTSOURCING OF INTELLIGENCE
Authors: Eicher James P. , Mea William J.
Published: December 2024

Artificial intelligence (AI) is disrupting industry and potentially threatening to replace humans at work. In this article, we offer a strategy to ensure that executive decision-makers are given the tools to combine the best of human skills with AI, both preserving human dignity and enhancing organizational achievement. We propose a decision-making framework, the Arbitrage-Enhancement Decision Grid (AEDG), that enables organization leaders to determine the optimum human and intelligent machine collaboration to improve workforce performance. The framework recognizes the inevitable adoption of technology innovation, in conjunction with an organization’s need to balance human performance and competitive objectives. The authors then advance an actionable roadmap for developing human workforce and intelligent machine competencies and skills, the Human Resource-Artificial Intelligence Collaboration (HRAIC) framework that complements the decision-making outcomes of the AEDG.

We interviewed 12 VRGS doctors, 25 site nursing staff and nine GP VMOs. Clinicians were overwhelmingly positive about the VRGS, seeing it as providing good quality care and being an innovative and translatable solution to rural workforce challenges. In‐person site visits by VRGS doctors were highly valued, especially by local site staff, for team building, skill building and increasing VRGS doctors’ understanding of the local context. The VRGS model relies on nursing availability and skill, and creates additional workload for nurses. Nurses in isolated sites valued the clinical support provided by the VRGS. Overall, most GP VMOs valued the fatigue relief offered by the VRGS; however, some viewed the VRGS as diminishing local doctors’ autonomy and the viability of their positions.

Conclusions

The hybrid VRGS model is widely accepted by clinicians as providing good quality care for patients and high job satisfaction for providers. The service supports the local health workforce and makes rural medical positions more attractive and sustainable. The in‐person shift requirement is central to the model's effectiveness and acceptability. Further investment is needed to train and resource local nurses who play an integral role in providing virtual medical care.

The fluid has a low temperature, while the lower wall of the two chambers has an elevated temperature. The results of this research show the effect of velocity and thermal buoyancy intensity on the flow path and thermal distribution inside the two chambers. Also, the values of Nu are computed in terms of the studied parameters.
Perforation space impact on the heat dissipation performance in pin fins heat sinks
Authors: Sahel Djamel
Published: December 2024

In this study, a numerical analysis is carried out to optimize the pin fins heat sink (PFHS) performance. The investigation is conducted by using Comsol Multiphysics v.5.4 software based on the finite elements method (FEM). The effect of the perforation space through the pin fins is tested. Five configurations are proposed for investigation: cylindrical pin fins (CPFs) and PFHS-1 to 4. The fluid flow and convective heat transfer characteristics are analyzed for Reynolds number (Re) ranging from 8,547 to 21,367. The results found that PFHS-1 creates an enhanced heat transfer execution with a moderate pressure drop. In addition, this case ensures the highest hydrothermal performance factor of 1.34. The comparison is reported for CPFs available in the literature, where a satisfactory agreement is observed.
The impact of anatomical variations and renal malformations on the flow of urine through the megaureters and the occurrence of renal failure
Authors: Rehala Zahra
Published: December 2024

Unilateral renal agenesis is a congenital malformation characterized by the complete absence of one kidney. Megaureters, on the other hand, are urinary tract anomalies characterized by abnormal dilation of the ureters, resulting in obstruction of urine flow. This case study aims to analyze the impact of unilateral renal agenesis on the development of megaureters and the obstruction of urine flow through the ureter. Follow-up of a patient from fetal age to five years of age highlights the correlation between unilateral renal agenesis and the accelerated development of obstructive megaureters. The results showed that the absence of a functional kidney was associated with the presence of voluminous megaureters, leading to obstruction of urine flow. This study highlights the importance of understanding the underlying mechanisms of these malformations and developing optimal management strategies to prevent renal failure in patients with unilateral renal agenesis and obstructive megaureters.

Published: December 2024

Low-grade heat from waste energy sources can be successfully recovered to produce power by an organic Rankine cycle. In the present work, reheat ORC is studied with three different wet organic fluids. The performance of R1270, R152a, and Cyclopropane is modelled in an ORC powered by a heat source temperature of 413.15K. The reheat ORC model contains an economizer, evaporator, superheater, reheater, two turbines, pump, and condensers. The net power output and thermal efficiency are estimated with variable turbine inlet temperature and reheat pressure. The results show an optimum turbine inlet temperature maximizing the net power output. The increase of reheat pressure only gives a marginal growth in the efficiency of the cycle, but it raises the net power output by about 16.88%, 16.26%, and 13.23% for R1270, R152a, and Cyclopropane, respectively.
