Dual Trigger in IVF—A SWOT Analysis
Authors: Manivasagam Aruna , Samanta Jayeeta , Mathur Raj
Published: January 2025

The typical agent used for final oocyte maturation and resumption of meiosis in in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) has been human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). This acts as a surrogate for the physiological spontaneous luteinising hormone (LH) surge. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) has been used as an alternative trigger in cycles where endogenous LH control is achieved using GnRH-antagonist and has been shown to be an effective method of reducing the risk of OHSS. However, GnRHa trigger is associated with poor corpus luteum function, leading to impaired endometrial receptivity.

A combination of a GnRHa and hCG (dual trigger) was proposed to improve IVF cycle outcomes, especially in poor and normo-responder patients. Dual trigger aims to provide a more physiological alternative to HCG-only trigger while obviating some of the problems associated with GnRHa alone. Clinical evidence now supports the value of dual trigger where there has been a previous low proportion of mature eggs or where there is a suboptimal LH response to GnRHa alone. In poor responders, dual triggers could be considered as an effective first line. Dual trigger allows for comparable outcomes in normal and high responders, allowing the possibility of fresh embryo transfer with good clinical pregnancy and live birth rates while minimising OHSS risk.

Collateral Ownership as A Stepping Stone to Formal Credit Accessibility: A Perspective of Cottage Industry Owners
Authors: Kundy V. P. , Shah K.
Published: January 2025

Purpose: The study investigates the influence of collateral ownership on formal credit accessibility for cottage industry owners in Dodoma, Tanzania.
Design/Methodology/Approach: A cross-sectional survey randomly sampled 357 cottage industry owners from Dodoma City and Chamwino District Council in the Dodoma Region. Quantitative and qualitative data collection methods were used, including surveys and interviews. The analysis employed SPSS software to perform descriptive and inferential statistics, including Chi-square tests and binary logistic regression, to examine the influence of collateral ownership and formal credit accessibility.
Findings: The study found that most cottage industry owners with collateral can only access a small amount of formal credit of up to five million Tanzanian shillings. Similarly, the study revealed that ownership of tangible assets, title deeds, business assets, and employment contracts significantly enhances the likelihood of cottage industry owners accessing credit from formal financial institutions in Dodoma, Tanzania.
Research Limitation: The study concentrated on collateral ownership and formal credit accessibility to Dodoma City and Chamwino District Council cottage industry owners. Thus, the findings may not apply to all Tanzanian cottage industry owners within the councils due to different regional administrative structures. Also, future studies can examine how interest rates, the availability of business records, and the location of the business may affect formal credit accessibility.
Practical Implication: Understanding the role of collateral ownership is crucial in informing policies to improve financial inclusion and reduce poverty.
Social Implication: Enhancing credit accessibility through collateral ownership to cottage industry owners can promote economic growth and job creation in Tanzania.
Originality/ Value: The application of credit rationing theory in comprehending the influence of collateral ownership and credit accessibility for cottage industry owners in Tanzania, contributing to the financial ecosystem for informal businesses in developing economies.

The questions of human nature, being fundamental philosophical issues, have never lost their signifi-cance throughout the entire history of the development of philosophical thought. Analyzing the concept of the "perfect human" in Islam is necessary for the development of contemporary religious anthropology and for offering solutions to the problems of comprehensive human studies. The article examines and reveals the essence of such concepts as the stages of achieving perfection in Islam: spirit, intellect, heart, morals, character, and ego. Their place in the Muslim worldview is determined. From the existential philosophical perspective, the stages of transformation of human consciousness reflected in Islam are analyzed. The philosophical content of the concept of "nafs" is revealed, encompassing the unity of the concepts of soul and consciousness. The author determines that the human nature weakness hinders the full fulfillment of religious duties. To achieve the "perfect human" level in Islam, a person must go through a spiritual stage series. The article includes the study of the third education - the education of lust, which combines faith and Islam as its title. The author proves the relevance of the teaching on the cultivation of nafs in Islam in the modern era, linking it to the method of self-education in psychology. The knowledge of the conditions of faith by Muslims and their belief do not fully reflect in their behavior in everyday life. Because of the ignorance of one`s ego a person's inner faith, i.e. faith, and Islam are not interconnected. The article aims to form a correct religious understanding, emphasizing that Islam includes not only strict rules limited to external forms but also places special importance on the inner world and spirituality of the person. The author draws conclusions by analyzing the valuable works of Kazakh thinkers and for-eign scholars written in this field.

Published: January 2025

This article studies the institution of Akhuns and Ishans in the Kazakh steppe in the 18th-19th cen-turies. The prerequisite for the study was to reveal the meaning of the concepts of Akhun and Ishan. The origin, genesis, semantics, etymology, and logic of the words Akhun and Ishan were studied. Analyzing the various definitions given to these concepts, it was concluded that these words probably came from the Persian language. The names of religious officials: Hafiz, Muaddis, muhaddis, Muazzin, Molda, Pir, Aulie (-anbie), Bab (bap, baba), Taqwa (Daruish), Diwana, Supy (supy), Baqsy (shaman), Hazret, Kazy, Khadzhi, Khoja, Damolla, Muftis, and the related aspects of Ishan were analyzed. Also, after analyzing the etymology and interpretations of the word Akhun, views were presented that interpreted them as religious figures with a special prestigious position. As a result, the following conclusions were reached about the nature of ishans and ahuns: a person who has received a thorough religious education for 3-10 years; a person who has a special authority in the public consciousness, sometimes even a higher status than a mullah, lower than a mufti. Analyzing the functions performed by ahuns and ishans, their person-ality, role in society, education received, etc., the author’s own definition, as well as specific conclusions and conclusions about their main nature, were presented.

Classification of dialectism and occasionalism, dialectal and unusual derivative words – occa-sional lexical units are collected, selected and given with examples taken from Togai Murat’s works. Vari-ous stylistic colors of words specific to dialects in the speaking style of the author and characters, creative skills in using new words created by means of word formation methods of folk words are highlighted in the article. Linguistic analysis, classification, description, comparative-historical, semantic-stylistic analysis methods are used in the work. The article is of particular interest to text linguistics researchers. Learning the lexical features of words in Uzbek dialects reflected in the works of Togai Murat opens the way to study the people’s lifestyle, profession, and behavior and can provide valuable information for the lexicology and lexicography of the Uzbek language.

Authors:   AL-FARABI KAZAKH NATIONAL UNIVERSITY, Sametova Zhanakul , Naimanbayev Almas
Published: January 2025

The first Kazakh meta role by Alibek Baibol is an innovative work that enriches modern Kazakh literature. In this novel, Baibol uses meta-narrative elements such as the author’s comments, reflections on the process of creating a text, and active communication with the reader. This makes it possible to rethink traditional narrative forms and deepen the understanding of the social and cultural realities of modern Kazakhstan. The novel serves as an important stage in developing national literature, stimulating critical thinking and self-awareness of both authors and readers. The relationship between the novel’s events and real historical and cultural events is deep. The motif of “awakening” can be traced in the work. In the novel, the author alludes to the reflection of the social and cultural realities of modern Ka-zakhstan. In the literature of the Turkic peoples of the late early XX centuries, the theme of “awakening” was widely raised. It is known that during that period, poets who wished their nation not to be late for civilization sang national unity and spiritual integrity in their works. This article analyzes the influence of the meta roman not only on setting new standards of literary creativity but also on integrating Kazakh literature into the world literary process, creating a unique and original literary tradition of Kazakhstan.

Authors:   AL-FARABI KAZAKH NATIONAL UNIVERSITY, Molotovskaya Olga , Zhambylkyzy Marina
Published: January 2025

The article discusses pragmatic function of phraseological units in facilitating interaction between writers and readers in the newspaper discourse. Being a captivating field within linguistic investigation, pragmatics explores the relationship between language and the contextual factors of background charac-teristics. The theoretical base of the research is discussed with particular emphasis on the significant con-tributions made by scholars in the field of phraseological studies, pragmatics and newspaper discourse – M. Kopylenko, A. Kunin, Teun A. van Dijk, N. Fairclough, and others. The study aims to conduct a comprehensive analysis of newspaper articles published in the major American online editions of news-papers such as The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Wall Street Journal, drawing on qualitative analysis to explore the contextual and functional aspects of phraseological units in newspaper discourse. To demonstrate the relevance of the information, articles from the last six months (September 2023 to March 2024) of newspapers were selected. K. Hyland’s (2005) model of interactional meta-discourse was adopted for analyzing the pragmatic potential of phraseological units within newspaper discourse. The findings reveal that the pragmatic effectiveness and communicative impact of newspaper articles are significantly enhanced by these lexical elements – they boost the impact of the meaning conveyed, reinforce attitudes of the writer, encourage reader engagement by inviting them to reflect on the problem under discussion. The results can be useful in linguistics and journalistic practice to better utilize phraseological units to achieve specific communicative goals.

Published: January 2025

The article is devoted to the study of the problems faced by the authors of domestic monographs on the direction of pedagogical sciences in the process of their publication and popularization. The paper analyzes the data obtained from 42 research participants, including 12 men and 30 women, representing various educational and research institutions. The results of the study showed that the main challenges faced by authors were limited access to publishing houses and platforms for publishing monographs, lack of time to conduct research and prepare materials, and difficulty in selecting appropriate publishers. Difficulties in designing and structuring scholarly materials have also been identified. In the context of popularizing monographs, authors faced low levels of activity in promoting their work. Some authors do not engage in popularization, while others are just beginning to do so. Among the methods of popular-ization, the most used were the publication of summaries and excerpts in scientific journals, and public lectures on the topic of the monograph. Based on the results obtained, the article offers a number of recommendations for improving the situation. These include developing author support programs, pro-moting accessibility to publishers and platforms, teaching popularization skills, and using social media to promote monographs. These recommendations are aimed at improving the quality and visibility of domestic monographs in the field of educational sciences.

Published: January 2025

The article presents the results of a study aimed at identifying the challenges faced by rural English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers in Kazakhstan when conducting research. A quantitative approach was used, using a Likert scale questionnaire completed by 81 participating teachers. The quantitative findings indicate that rural EFL teachers generally recognize the value of research in improving teaching practice and performance. However, the teachers also described significant obstacles to engaging in research, including a lack of research knowledge and skills, heavy teaching workloads that leave little time for research, and limited training and institutional support for professional development in this area. These challenges were perceived similarly across teachers with different qualification levels, suggesting systemic issues in the rural educational context. The results suggest a need to enhance research capac-ity among rural EFL teachers through targeted training programs, mentoring initiatives, and workload adjustments to empower them to utilize research more effectively in their teaching. The authors offered recommendations.

Introduction. The development of the digital economy has left its mark on all areas of activity, including accounting processes. The theoretical and practical foundations of accounting are also undergoing significant changes. Accounting tools must be in line with modern realities. Enterprises automate the collection and registration of primary information using modern measuring instruments, which ensures the documentation of business transactions exclusively in electronic form. The article discusses the need to ensure the reliability of accounting indicators and prevent possible deviations by means of inventory, one of the main methods of accounting and control.
The purpose of the article. To study and improve the digital tools used in the inventory of accounting objects at business entities of various types of activities.
Methods. The methods of abstraction, analysis, logical, theoretical, generalization and comparison were used in the study. The research is based on the dialectical method.
Results. The transformation of accounting in accordance with the new needs of society is a necessary stage in its development. Changes and improvements in the accounting methodology will help not to lose its relevance in the era of universal digitalization.
The complexity of the inventory and its labor intensity is explained by the need for a set of preparatory and organizational actions, extensive documentary support, involvement of significant human resources in control procedures, and the multidimensional scope of application. With the ever-increasing range and assortment of inventory items on the market, the number of accounting items is growing, which in turn requires significant time spent on control procedures.
Inventory at the vast majority of enterprises is characterized by a statutory procedure and frequency.
Conclusions. The use of digital identification technologies in inventory procedures will reduce labor and working time costs, increase the efficiency of such procedures, ensure timeliness and efficiency of inventory, and reduce the likelihood of abuse.

Foram obtidos dados de Condutividade Elétrica (CE) e os parâmetros de Cálcio (Ca2+), Magnésio (Mg2+) e Sódio (Na+) de 12.129 poços no SIAGAS® e utilizando o QGIS® foram geoespacializados utilizando a interpolação B-Spline Multinível através do plugin SAGA®. No software QUALIGRAF® foi realizada a classificação da água subterrânea para fins de irrigação. No tratamento estatístico foi realizada a análise descritiva dos dados e o teste de normalidade utilizando o software RStudio©. O uso das técnicas do geoprocessamento e da interpolação demonstraram serem uma ferramenta eficiente e rápida onde apresentou resultados satisfatórios no uso da modelagem por B-Spline multinível no mapeamento do risco a salinidade das águas subterrâneas. O uso da geoestatística demonstrou a variabilidade da Condutividade Elétrica, da Razão de Adsorção e do Risco de Salinidade das águas subterrâneas da área de estudo. Os testes de normalidade apresentaram-se semelhantes entre si e houve baixa correlação entre o RAS e o CE. Os riscos Alto, Muito Alto e Excepcionalmente Alto totalizam 26,09% da área de estudo, devendo-se neste caso, adotar medidas de cautela quanto a irrigação utilizando águas subterrâneas nestas áreas. As áreas com maiores riscos a salinidade estão localizadas sob o Planalto da Borborema com características geológicas similares sob diversas unidades estratrigráficas e litológicas na região semiárida e relacionadas a regiões de maiores altitudes e de menor pluviosidade. A salinidade das águas subterrâneas para fins de irrigação, apresentaram variabilidade entre as classes de risco médio à excepcionalmente alto (C2S1 a C5S4).
NOTAS SOBRE A TERMINOLOGIA KANTIANA NA ÉTICA DE HANS JONAS: O IMPERATIVO RESPONSABILIDADE E O IMPERATIVO CATEGÓRICO
Authors: Santos Robinson dos
Published: January 2025

Quando se pergunta qual exatamente o papel que a filosofia de Kant desempenha no pensamento de Jonas – se é o caso de que desempenha algum papel – a tarefa de fornecer uma resposta vai muito além do que uma simples afirmativa ou negativa, pois para tal é necessário examinar, com a paciência que o conceito exige, os problemas que estão aí implicados. Até que ponto a ética de Kant está pressuposta de modo explícito ou de modo tácito na proposta de uma ética do futuro de Jonas? Em que medida aquela pode ser considerada superada por meio das observações críticas desta última? O objetivo deste trabalho é dar um “primeiro passo” para uma análise e comentário sobre a interpretação da relação entre a abordagem da ética de Hans Jonas e a ética de Immanuel Kant. O foco do trabalho será direcionado especialmente para o ponto que me parece aproximá-los e que, ao mesmo tempo, estabelece uma diferença crucial entre ambos, a saber, para a sua definição respectiva de imperativo moral.

A evolução tecnológica, científica e a interação multidisciplinar têm contribuído na sobrevida dos pacientes críticos. No
entanto, a incidência de complicações decorrentes dos efeitos deletérios da imobilidade nas unidades de terapia intensiva
(UTI) está relacionada ao declínio da independência funcional, custos assistenciais excessivos, diminuição da qualidade
de vida e sobrevida pós-alta. O objetivo desta revisão narrativa é mapear os principais efeitos deletérios do imobilismo
e sua influência na capacidade funcional e de recuperação do paciente crítico internado na UTI. Trata-se de uma revisão
narrativa da literatura. A questão norteadora é: “Quais os marcadores dos efeitos adversos da imobilização e da paresia
adquirida na unidade de terapia intensiva?”. A busca foi realizada em dezembro de 2024, seguindo as diretrizes dos
Descritores em Ciências da Saúde (DeCS/MESH). A pesquisa foi feita nas seguintes plataformas: Web of Science,
Lilacs, SciELO, PubMed, Embase e Scopus. Adicionalmente, foi realizada busca ativa nas referências de artigos
relevantes para o estudo. Foram utilizados os seguintes descritores em inglês para a busca nas bases de dados: “Muscular
Disorders” AND “ Paresis” AND “Intensive Care Units”. Os principais desfechos dessa revisão foram que os pacientes
internados na UTI, sofrem impactos na capacidade funcional e qualidade de vida, devido a fatores adversos, como:
Contraturas Articulares, Fraqueza Muscular adquirida na UTI, Descondicionamento físico global, Trombose venosa
profunda, Úlceras por pressão (UP), Pneumonia, Atelectasia. Conclui-se com essa revisão, que o imobilismo, devido a
diversos efeitos deletérios, é prejudicial ao paciente internado na UTI. Fatores como medicação, prognóstico e o quadro
clínico do paciente devem ser avaliados diariamente, a fim de oferecer estratégias para o desmame da VM, e iniciar
protocolos de mobilização precoce, ou outras intervenções de caráter multimodal, com o objetivo de oferecer ao paciente
o cuidado e prevenir efeitos deletério do mobilismo.
Adultos mayores y riesgos socionaturales en Chile: consideraciones territoriales desde la ética
Authors: Ojeda Leal Carolina
Published: January 2025

Chile es un país frecuentemente afec-tado por desastres socionaturales cuya población de adultos mayores ha incre-mentado su número y su participación en diversos roles dentro de la sociedad. Sin embargo, aún no se reconoce plenamente el aporte de los adultos mayores en la prevención, reducción de la vulnerabilidad y reconstrucción. Este artículo de reflexión pretende generar una discusión sobre algunos elementos que podrían constituir marcos de referencia éticos en la Gestión y Reducción de los Riesgos y Desastres (GRRD), particularmente con foco en el caso de Chile, país localizado en el Sur Global. Se presta especial atención al concepto de vulnerabilidad social (Valdés and Lecaros, 2016), a la vinculación social en la ethica cordis o ética cordial (Cortina, 2007) y en el enfoque de las capacidades (Nussbaum, 2012). Además, proporciona elementos para investigar las propuestas de diseño urbano que consideran a los adultos mayores como sujetos vulnerables de la OMS: las Ciudades Amigables y las Ciudades que Promueven el Envejecimiento Activo.

Published: January 2025

Objective Despite lower depression rates in men than in women, men’s suicide rates are significantly higher, suggesting potential gaps in depression screening. Rutz et al. developed the Gotland Male Depression Scale (GMDS), which includes symptoms commonly associated with male depression. This study was conducted to validate the Korean version of the GMDS (K-GMDS).Methods The K-GMDS, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and outpatient records of 233 new patients at the outpatient psychiatry department of Catholic University Hospital in Daegu from February and May 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. Internal consistency was measured using Cronbach’s α, and external validity was tested by analyzing the scale’s correlation with the PHQ-9. The screening capacity of the K-GMDS was tested based on the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, sensitivity, specificity, and overall accuracy.Results Of 233 patients, 42.6% (n=98) were classified to the depression group. Cronbach’s α was 0.92, and external validity was established with a Pearson’s correlation coefficient of 0.83 between the total score of the K-GMDS and the PHQ-9. While there were no significant differences in the area under the ROC curve between the K-GMDS and the PHQ-9, the K-GMDS had better sensitivity, specificity, and overall accuracy in screening depressive symptoms among men compared to the PHQ-9.Conclusion The K-GMDS exhibits satisfactory reliability and validity in psychiatric outpatient settings and outperforms the PHQ-9 in screening for depression among men. This study will be useful in developing male depression scales that are currently unavailable in South Korea.
A usual metaphor as a means of representing the regulative concept ABNEIGUNG in modern German
Authors: Korogodina Izabella Viktorovna
Published: January 2025

The purpose of the study is to determine the content of the value component of the regulative concept ABNEIGING (ANTIPATHY), expressed by the usual metaphors representing the conceptual metaphor ‘Abneigung ist ein Naturwesen’ (Antipathy is a natural organism). The scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that, for the first time, the value characteristics of the regulative concept ABNEIGUNG are described on the basis of the German language and linguistic metaphors that verbalize the conceptual metaphor ‘Abneigung ist ein Naturwesen’ are classified according to the level of linguistic hierarchy and stylistic significance. The article examines the physiological and emotional components of the emotion “antipathy”, justifies the choice of its mental representation – a regulative concept related to universal, cultural, nonparametric emotional regulative concepts. Linguistic metaphors explicating the conceptual metaphor ‘Abneigung ist ein Naturwesen’ are analyzed. As a result, it is determined that the distinctive characteristic of the regulative concept ABNEIGUNG is its pronounced value component, represented by rationalistic assessments – utilitarian (useful – harmful, correct – incorrect) and teleological (effective – ineffective). Based on the analysis of linguistic metaphors explicating the conceptual metaphor ‘Abneigung ist ein Naturwesen’, it has been established that they are metaphors-words, metaphors-phrases, metaphors-sentences, according to the type of stylistic significance – customary metaphors.
Verbs as a lexical means of expressing the “presentation” speech genre in an educational TV program about health (based on the material of English and Russian)
Authors: Eremeeva Svetlana Anatolievna
Published: January 2025

The article is devoted to the analysis of the speech genre of the presentation, which is often realized as a story about medical innovations in an educational television program about health. The purpose of this study is to establish the peculiarities of the linguistic embodiment of the genre of television medical presentation in English and Russian on the basis of comparative analysis. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that for the first time the lexical resources of the genre of television medical presentation are being studied. As a result of the conducted research, it was established that a medical presentation is a sequence of assertive (representative) speech acts that serve to describe the real state of affairs in the world. During the analysis, it was determined that these speech acts correlate with the verbs of verbal and visual representation, as well as with the verbs of sensory and cognitive perception. In English, verbs with the meanings “have a name”, “give a name”, “be real”, “be something”, “have something as a part”, “perform an action”, “be used” help to reveal the essence of the presentation object and create its full-fledged image. In Russian, this task is performed by verbs with the following semantics: “have a name”, “be real”, “belong”, “be something”, “have something as a part”, “perform an action”, “have a difference”, “be used”.
Polemic as a form of communication in the Slavophile-Westernist discourse of the 19th century
Authors: Chapaeva Lyubov Georgievna
Published: January 2025

The purpose of the study is to prove that polemics is a defining form of communication in the public discourse of the mid-19th century. It serves as a special marker of the era. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that the semantics and usage of the lexeme "polemic" are the subject of analysis for the first time. The lexeme is missing from historical dictionaries devoted to the literary language of the 18th and 19th centuries, and therefore the results of the analysis fill a certain gap in lexicographic practice. As a result of the research, it was found that the original meaning changes significantly, moving from the religious sphere and theology to the socio-political one. In the article, the semantics of a word is revealed in contexts and supplemented taking into account compatibility with other units. It is established that as a form of communication, polemics turned out to be an important aspect of the ideological struggle between Slavophiles and Westerners and contributed to the crystallization of the views of both. The battlefield turned out to be mainly literary and critical articles in magazines and newspapers, since an open discussion on censorship grounds was impossible. Nevertheless, the veiled nature of the controversy did not prevent the identification of the author's views and his identification as a supporter of one or another ideological camp.
Deviant and stratagem-tactical representations of the linguistic personality of a simultaneous interpreter (in the English and Russian language pair)
Authors: Ulanova Ekaterina Eduardovna
Published: January 2025

Representatives of the linguistic personality of a simultaneous interpreter may be individual combinations of stratagem-tactical decisions, deviations from the existing translation norm, primarily translation errors and unsuccessful translation decisions. The definition of units representing the linguistic personality of a simultaneous interpreter generates ambiguity of interpretations and a multitude of terminological derivatives. The study aims to determine the range of deviant and stratagem-tactical techniques that represent the linguistic personality of a simultaneous interpreter. The scientific novelty of the research consists in a new theoretical understanding of the problem of verbal representatives of the linguistic personality of a simultaneous interpreter, standing at the junction of linguopersonology, erratology and translatology. The author distinguishes between the concepts of a “translation error” and an “unsuccessful translation decision” from the perspective of the pragmatic content of the verbal translation. As a result of the research, a theoretical justification and empirical confirmation of the variety of stratagem-tactical manifestations are proposed, which are realized through the individual choice of a tactical network of techniques, as well as through the forms of deviant variants of the language portrait of a simultaneous interpreter.
Applying Project Based Learning to Flipped Bloom Taxonomy for Deep Understanding in Control Systems
Authors: GB Folayan
Published: January 2025

The peculiar nature of control theory as a course that cut across a lot of major engineering disciplines calls for a look into how its learning can best be done without students feeling like they are wasting their time. This paper takes a look at control theory as subject cut across various engineering field and has a wide background that students must really be comfortable with. Its wide application and background pose a huge challenge to the teaching of control. It goes further to look into traditional method of teaching, Project Based Learning Blooms Taxonomy. It then proposes applying flipped Bloom Taxonomy to Projectbased learning for a deep understanding of control systems

The Salton Sea, California’s largest lake, is undergoing significant environmental degradation, which has adverse health effects on nearby rural communities, who are primarily Latinx and Torres Martinez Desert Cahuilla Indian. Over the past two decades, the lake’s water levels have steadily dropped. Water conditions in the Sea, characterized by low oxygen and high nutrient levels, favor the production of H2S. This study investigates the connection between the Sea’s changing conditions, particularly the worsening water quality, and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) emissions using air quality and water quality data collected since 2013 and 2004, respectively. H2S concentrations often exceed California’s air quality standards, particularly in areas near the Sea during summer months. Wind patterns substantially impact detection of H2S. When wind is blowing from the sea towards communities with sensors, which are located to the northwest of the sea, H2S is detected significantly more often. Current monitoring efforts underestimate the frequency and distribution of H2S that exceeds air quality standards. An air sensor deployed in shallow water over the Salton Sea by a community science program detected substantially higher concentrations of H2S, particularly when wind was blowing over exposed sediment and shallow water, suggesting that these are a significant and overlooked H2S source at the Salton Sea. These findings highlight the need for improved air quality monitoring and more effective environmental management policies to protect public health in the region. The study emphasizes the importance of community-led solutions and provides insights relevant to other regions experiencing similar environmental crises.
How consistent are UK university rankings of subjects and their shifts? An exploration using a robust ranking aggregation method

Published: January 2025

Rankings are ubiquitous, also within higher education settings. Guides are produced and they contain rankings for each subject provider. University rankings influence student choice of where to study. Moreover, league table rankings may be used by institutions to inform policy. As such, it is important to ensure these rankings are reliable. In this research, we applied a novel robust ranking algorithmic (RRA) method, commonly used in biosciences, to determine university rankings and compared this against the rankings from well-used university league tables (Guardian / Complete university guide). Although there was some correspondence between the RRA method rankings and the university league tables, there were also inconsistencies. Indeed, the median rank shift was 18 ranks for the Guardian University Guide and 11 ranks for the Complete University Guide. These findings were similar regardless of whether the focus was all institutions or those in the Russell Group. Additionally, there was little correspondence in ranking changes across years between the RRA and either well-used league table. Based on this, we argue that it is important to consider the reliability of university league tables when they are used in decision making, either by students or university staff.
