Authors: Aparecida Batista Lavínia , Pacheco dos Santos Vander Broock Karina , De Mello Santo Nicola Rosane
Published: July 2024

As constantes transformações nas práticas linguísticas decorrentes do avanço tecnológico influenciam não só as interações sociais, mas também na inserção de ferramentas digitais no contexto escolar. Assim, professores buscam potencializar processos de ensino e aprendizagem por meio da inserção dessas ferramentas em sala de aula, fomentando o mercado de Softwares Educacionais (SE). Por isso, esta pesquisa analisa a percepção de discentes sobre o uso em Língua Portuguesa do SE Aprimora na temática História em Quadrinhos (HQs). Para tanto, apresentam-se concepções sobre tecnologia (Veraszto et al., 2009), letramento digital (Zacharias, 2016) e composição multissemiótica das HQs (Santos; Côrrea; Tomé, 2012). Ainda, utilizam-se os trabalhos de Gamez (1998) e Silva (2012) para definição dos conceitos e critérios de avaliação de SE. A partir desses dois autores, desenvolve-se um questionário avaliativo a ser respondido por discentes do 6º ano de uma escola pública na pesquisa de campo. Por fim, por meio da análise do corpus coletado, os principais resultados apontam para a desmotivação dos estudantes ao utilizarem o SE Aprimora nas aulas de Língua Portuguesa. Isso decorreu, principalmente, da falta de legibilidade dos recursos imagéticos, da repetição de informações e do baixo nível informacional das questões. Portanto, faz-se necessário aperfeiçoar o Software em estudo para motivação discente e potencialização do ensino de Língua Portuguesa.
El reggaetón y la educación en valores en el área de música en primaria
Authors: Bravo-Fuentes Paloma
Published: July 2024

El alumnado de educación primaria tiene acceso a música a través de plataformas digitales y redes sociales. En concreto, el reggaetón, está al alcance de niños y niñas en edad escolar, sin restricciones. La preocupación surge de la usual presencia en estas canciones de letras y bailes sexualizados que pueden normalizar comportamientos machistas, violentos y desiguales entre géneros. Dado que estos/as estudiantes están en una fase crucial de desarrollo emocional y de formación de valores, es esencial abordar esta situación. A través de la metodología de investigación-acción se propone la incorporación de esta música en el aula de educación musical, alineada con el contexto sociocultural del alumnado, como una herramienta educativa para promover el pensamiento crítico y el consumo responsable. Este corpus analítico incorpora 214 participantes de edades comprendidas entre los 10 y los 11 años de centros públicos de educación primaria de la provincia de Granada (España). Así, mediante el uso del cuestionario, el ensayo y la entrevista se revela la necesidad de sensibilizar a los docentes sobre esta realidad y de integrar este género musical como recurso didáctico para reforzar la educación en valores por formar parte de su realidad diaria.

Authors: Ramos Álvarez Oliver , Rivero Gómez David , Barcala-Furelos Martín
Published: July 2024

El objetivo de este estudio fue conocer cuáles son las principales capacidades físicas y psicológicas que determinan el rendimiento en jugadores del videojuego conocido como League of Legends. Para cumplirlo se empleó un cuestionario “ad hoc” diseñado con la colaboración de profesionales en los términos más teóricos del videojuego dedicados al coaching de equipos. La muestra estuvo constituida por 15 jugadores (4±3 años de experiencia), de los cuales 2 juegan en el rol de ADC, 5 de jungla, 5 de mid, 2 de top y uno de support; divididos en distinto ELO desde la división de Platino (7) hasta Master (2), pasando por la división de Diamante (6). Los resultados obtenidos evidenciaron que las capacidades que determinan el rendimiento son, sobre todo, la resistencia psicológica, los reflejos, la coordinación óculo-manual, la toma de decisiones y la capacidad de percibir estímulos. Igualmente, pero en menor medida, los resultados evidencian la influencia de la resistencia física, la flexibilidad, el equilibrio o la velocidad de traslación. Teniendo en cuenta estos resultados, se ha podido determinar que la condición física influye en el rendimiento de jugadores de League of Legends. Además, cabe mencionar en la posible traslación de estos resultados a otros eSports que sería interesante estudiar.

Published: July 2024

Thirty-two (32) TN70 (Topigs Norsvin) weaned pigs, aged 7 weeks, having an average weight of 10.5±0.5 kg were used to evaluate the effect of corn and cob meal (CCM) on the carcass parameters, organ weight, villi morphometric, and organoleptic properties of the pigs. CCM was produced by grinding the grain and the cob together. The pigs were acclimatized for seven days before they were randomly allotted to four (4) dietary treatments with eight (8) pigs per replicate in a completely randomized design. The experiment lasted for seven weeks. The feed had 0%, 10%, 20%, and 30% corn and cob meal (CCM) in the diets tagged as D1, D2, D3, and D4 respectively. All the data were analyzed using SPSS version 16 and the means were compared using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Except for the eviscerated weight, back fat, and loin, all the carcass parameters were significantly influenced (P<0.05). The weight of the visceral organs was significantly influenced (P<0.05) except for the weight of the lungs. All the villi morphometric parameters differed significantly (P<0.05) except the crypt width. CCM influenced (P<0.05) the colour, tenderness, juiciness, and overall acceptability of the meat. The use of 30% CCM stimulated pancreas hypertrophy, increased carcass weight, belly, ham, picnic shoulder, villi height, muscle thickness, and improved organoleptic properties.

Objective: To evaluate the role of hyponatremia as a marker of complicated appendicitis. Study Design: A prospective case series was conducted. Place and Duration: The study was carried out at the Surgical Unit of IIMCT-Pakistan Railway Hospital, Rawalpindi over a 6 months period from 20th November 2022 to 20th May 2023. Methodology: Hyponatremia was defined as serum sodium level equal or less than 135 mEq/L. Gangrenous as well as perforated appendix on per-operative examination were considered as complicated appendicitis. Sociodemographic and disease related factors (including gender, age, presenting complaint and hyponatremia) were recorded among the study population and were compared among complicated and uncomplicated cases. Results: A total of 86 (N) patients were studied. The inferential analysis illustrated that gender, chief presenting complaint and postoperative complications had no association with complicated appendicitis. However significantly higher (p=0.002 at chi square value of 9.781) number of complicated appendicitis (CA) cases had hyponatremia preoperatively, when compared to the non-complicated appendicitis cases (NCA). Hyponatremia had an accuracy of 68.6% at predicting complicated appendicitis with a sensitivity of 54.3% and specificity of 78.4%. The receiver operator curve (ROC) of serum sodium level for identification of complicated appendicitis illustrated area under the curve (AUC) of 0.82 with a highly significant p-Value of <0.001 (at 95% CI of 0.734-0.907). Conclusion: Hyponatremia is associated with complicated appendicitis. However, the sensitivity isn’t high enough for its use to rule out the complicated form.

Renewable Energy And The WTO: The Limits Of Government Intervention
Authors: Nedumpara James J
Published: July 2024

This paper examines the role of the government in designing and supporting renewable energy programs and the compatibility of such interventions with various covered agreements of the World Trade Organisation (‘WTO’). The WTO treaty does not provide a special framework for renewable energy and a number of programs are susceptible to WTO challenges and domestic trade contingency measures. Of particular interest to developing countries such as India will be the availability of necessary policy space in fostering various renewable energy programs. This paper discusses the current treaty provisions of the WTO, especially the Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures (‘SCM Agreement’) and the Agreement on Trade Related Investment Measures (‘TRIMs Agreement’) and examines the extent of space in policy making available to various WTO Members across varying levels of development. In short, the paper seeks to examine the limits of WTO-consistent government intervention in the field of renewable energy.

"On Monopolistic Practices In Bitcoin: A Coded Solution: A Coded Solution"
Authors: Samtani Sanya
Published: July 2024

The underlying values inherent in the creation of bitcoins are those of decentralization and accessibility. The horizontal power structure is an integral part of bitcoins’ architecture – this paper seeks to find a feasible alternative to status quo in order to preserve these characteristics. First, we look at the harms of monopolies and how the concentration of bitcoins is exceptionally harmful to its continued existence. Second, we expose the inadequacies of the existing regulatory frameworks, and discuss how status quo militates against the foundational ideology of bitcoin as a non-institutional cryptocurrency. Third, we undertake a comparative study of the existing regulatory regimes to identify legal and regulatory issues surrounding bitcoins. Finally, we propose a solution to the concern of centralization by discussing the relationship between law, code and the market, and discussing existing coded solutions that may be further improved upon to prevent such monopoly

Published: July 2024

Este estudo examina o impacto das características implícitas e explícitas na percepção e experiência de conforto utilizando o bolo de cenoura como modelo experimental. Focando na percepção hedônica visual do bolo durante diferentes estágios de deterioração, investigamos como as características visuais explícitas, como cor e brilho, e implícitas, como sinais sutis de mofo, influenciam a aceitação do consumidor. Utilizamos uma amostra de 220 consumidores de Minas Gerais, que avaliaram 11 imagens de bolo de cenoura em vários estados de deterioração. Os resultados indicam que não houve diferença significativa na aceitação entre amostras com e sem visíveis sinais de deterioração, sugerindo que a emoção evocada por aspectos visuais atrativos pode ofuscar a percepção de qualidade deteriorada. Este fenômeno ressalta a importância da cognição na influência das decisões de consumo baseadas em características sensoriais explícitas e implícitas. O estudo destaca a necessidade de abordagens mais integradas que considerem tanto as respostas emocionais quanto cognitivas na avaliação da segurança alimentar e qualidade perceptiva.

Purpose: This paper examines whether the R&D tax allowance in force in Poland since 2016 has increased the voluntary disclosure of information on innovation, R&D, and strategic plans in the management commentary of companies listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange (WSE). Methodology/approach: First, the Tobit model was used to examine the determinants of recognising development works in a sample of 29,288 observations from 3,406 firms. Second, it uses logit and generalised least squares (GLS) methods to analyse 556 management commentaries from 97 public companies that benefited from the R&D tax allowance between 2016 and 2021. Findings: We show that tax relief increases the probability of recognising develop-ment work and disclosing information about patents to signal innovativeness and engagement in R&D. Indebted companies disclose more R&D information and strategic plans. IFRS and advanced management increase disclosures, as opposed to tax planning that uses tax havens or that is supported by more advisors. Companies audited by the Big 4 provide fewer details on R&D outcomes and strategic plans. Research limitations/implications: Extending the sample requires collecting disclosure data based on the wording in management commentaries using text-mining tools. Originality/value: The paper contributes to the literature by identifying that R&D tax allowance influences voluntary R&D information disclosure in management commentaries, especially by smaller companies in debt with larger intangible assets.
Key Audit Matters reporting for Polish listed companies
Authors: Kutera Małgorzata , Jędrzejczyk Marcin
Published: July 2024

Purpose: The main purpose of the article is to identify and characterize the key audit matters (KAMs) indicated during an audit of the financial statements of the largest companies in the Polish market. Methodology/approach: We analyzed the KAMs presented in the verification of the consolidated financial statements of the 30 largest companies listed on the main market of the Warsaw Stock Exchange for 2014–2022. The total sample was 270 auditors’ reports. The basis of the methodology was empirical research; deductive and inductive reasoning were used to formulate the results. Findings: The number of KAMs reported in individual years did not fluctuate significantly, and the average number disclosed for one audit coincides with general global trends. The auditors reported the riskiest areas were for entities from the insurance sector, media and telecommunications, and the fuel industry. The most important KAMs include contingent liabilities, revenue, long-term assets, and goodwill. Research limitations/implications: The main constraint is the limited research sample relating only to the audit of the financial statements of WIG30 companies. However, it covers the largest entities for which auditors indicated the most KAMs and prepared their most extensive descriptions. Originality/value: The article concerns a relatively new research area for which there are few studies on the Polish market, which additionally have a narrow substantive scope. This paper comprehensively characterizes KAMs reported by auditors in the long term.

Duality, Multiplicity – a Journey into the Unknown. W.S. Reymont’s Vampire
Authors: Walaszczyk Iga
Published: July 2024

The article discusses W.S. Reymont’s novel Vampire as a modern esoteric text, focusing mainlyon the motif of the double (Doppelgänger). References to theosophical interpretative tropes shedlight not only on Reymont’s interest in esotericism, but also on its practical application in diagnosingthe modern subject. Reymont’s characters suffer as a result of the vagueness and elusiveness of theirown selves, which is refl ected in the fi gure of the double.
Supporting the development of cultural competence in the Brazilian Polish community
Authors: Latoch-Zielińska Małgorzata , Morawska Iwona
Published: July 2024

The article joins the discussion on the ways of shaping cultural competence in teaching and learning Polish as a foreign language. The pretext for the considerations is the implementation of the project "Polish language beyond borders" financed by the National Agency for Academic Exchange. The activities undertaken were aimed at strengthening the Polish community in Brazil, maintaining Polishness in the world, and increasing the level of knowledge of the Polish language and Polish culture (old and contemporary). The designed activities were built around the idea of popularizing Poland by presenting Lublin and the Lublin region as a region gathering "cultural elements of Polishness”. An additional challenge for the implementation of the title project was the outbreak of the pandemic, which resulted in the transfer of all activities to the virtual space. The article discusses the implemented activities, their attractiveness and effectiveness. The observations made are the basis for the formulation of general conclusions and postulates regarding the possibility of remote education of cultural competences as part of learning Polish as a foreign and inherited language.
Pedagogy of live speech
Authors: Ostolska Magdalena
Published: July 2024

The theme of the presented work is the pedagogical impact of theatrical activities on their participants, focusing on their ability to use live speech and satisfy the psychological needs of individuals in the 21st century. The author argues that a broader utilization of theater in education, especially at higher levels, could bring multifaceted benefits. The work emphasizes the role of conscious direct communication and the shared physical presence of the message sender and receiver. This natural interpersonal situation is increasingly being replaced by mediated contacts. While they expand the potential pool of conversational partners, they also carry risks that have only recently caught the attention of the worlds of science and medicine. It is worth considering these issues in the context of preparing students for professions that involve social interactions.
Praca z uczniami ze zróżnicowanych środowisk kulturowych: doświadczenia polskich nauczycieli z różnych typów szkół
Authors: Skura Monika , Markowska-Manista Urszula
Published: July 2024

Po II wojnie światowej Polska stała się jednym z najbardziej homogenicznych etnicznie krajów w Europie i pozostaje nim do dziś. Pomimo rosnącej w drugiej dekadzie XXI wieku liczby uczniów o pochodzeniu uchodźczym i migracyjnym, polskie szkoły nadal są homogeniczne kulturowo, religijnie i narodowościowo. Ta długotrwała nieobecność cudzoziemców i przedmiotów związanych z pracą z uczniami zróżnicowanymi kulturowo w szkole ujawnia luki w przygotowaniu zawodowym nauczycieli do pracy w klasie heterogenicznej. Celem badania było poznanie kontekstu edukacyjnego, kompetencji osobistych i społecznych, doświadczeń, wyzwań, chęci i gotowości nauczycieli do pracy z uczniami SEN ze zróżnicowanych środowisk kulturowych w Polsce. Przeanalizowaliśmy 225 nauczycieli pracujących w szkołach integracyjnych, ogólnodostępnych i specjalnych, używając Dwuwymiarowego Inwentarza Inteligencji Emocjonalnej (DINEMO) i Kwestionariusza Kompetencji Społecznych. Wyniki badań pokazały, że zdecydowana większość nauczycieli nie jest przygotowana, ma niewielkie doświadczenie i napotyka wyzwania w pracy z tymi uczniami. Jednocześnie podjęto próbę krytycznego spojrzenia na programy nauczania, rozwiązania dydaktyczne stosowane wobec nauczycieli i uczniów w coraz bardziej zróżnicowanych szkołach.
Reymont’s Graphomania – From the Diary
Authors: Liszka Aleksandra
Published: July 2024

The negative critical reception of Władysław Stanisław Reymont’s satire From the Diary makesit a potential case for the analysis of the phenomenon of graphomania. The article offers a terminologicalclassifi cation of graphomania, based on the psychology of creativity as well as textanalysis and criticism. The work’s origin and its connection with a railway accident that seriouslyimpacted Reymont suggest that his graphomaniac writing episode was a way to regain his creativity.At the same time, the analysis of From the Diary enables the identifi cation of the stylistic manifestationsof graphomania. An essential element of satire is criticism of the bourgeoisie, and Reymont’sdepiction of this class underlines its consumerism, double morality, and imitation of the upperclasses.
