Published: May 2024

This research explores the implementation of Arabic language learning at the Maitreechit Withayattan School in Bangkok, Thailand. With a population dominated by a Muslim minority, this research aims to understand the challenges and potential for developing Arabic language education in this context. The research background reflects Thailand's uniqueness as an ASEAN country with a Muslim minority that is recognized and regulated by national law. The focus of the research is on issues of student interest, teaching methods, hidden learning goals, and the role of teachers in the learning process. The research method uses modern ethnographic studies at Maitrechit Wittaayathan School Bangkok. Research findings show that students' low interest is influenced by less innovative teaching methods and a need for more variety in learning. Hidden learning goals, which include students' political aspirations to support the position of Muslims in government, become a complex dynamic in Arabic language learning. The importance of Arabic in the government context was a significant finding, with students being taught that Arabic language skills can provide a competitive advantage in careers in the government sector. Despite challenges regarding student interest, school administrators' high enthusiasm for Arabic creates the potential for solid collaboration between education and religious identity development. Implications for Arabic language education management include the need for more exciting learning strategies, teacher training, and collaboration with external parties to increase the relevance of learning to careers. This research provides in-depth insight into the complex dynamics of Arabic language education in Muslim minority school environments in Thailand. However, it should be acknowledged that the research findings are limited to one school in Bangkok, and generalization of the findings must be done cautiously.
The effect of silver nanoparticles and preparations of various pharmacological groups on the bactericidal activity of Staphylococcus aureus
Authors: Nefedova E. V.
Published: May 2024

Multidrug-resistant bacteria have become one of the most serious threats to public health worldwide. The abuse of antibiotics has contributed to the emergence and transmission of resistance mechanisms among bacteria, jeopardizing the therapeutic potential of antibiotics. Uncontrolled use of drugs leads to the formation of antibiotic resistance due to mutations in chromosomal DNA, as well as the production of plasmids, integrons from other bacteria during horizontal gene transfer. In 2010, the BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) accounted for 76% of antibiotic consumption, with India consuming 12.9 billion units and China – 10 billion units. As of 2017, carbapenem-resistant Acetobacter baumannii and Enterobacteriaceae resulted in approximately US$ 281 million in healthcare costs in the United States. According to numerous reports from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 2.3 million episodes of multidrug-resistant microbial diseases resulting in 25,000 deaths are recorded annually in the United States alone. In this regard, the world community of scientists has intensified the study of the combined use of various antibacterial drugs to achieve maximum bactericidal activity. Studies have been conducted to determine the synergistic effect when using combinations of drugs of various pharmacological groups and silver nanoparticles. A significant increase in bactericidal activity by 53.87 times (from 2.528 to 0.0098 mcg/ml) was found with the combined use of AgNPs and DSMO against the reference strain Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25953. While the cultivation of St. aureus isolate with DSMO and silver nanoparticles revealed a sensitivity increase of 128.2 times (from 5.056 to 0.039 mcg/ml).

Published: May 2024

Сучасні темпи розвитку суднового двигунобудування диктують необхідність створення універсальних методів дослідження теплового і напруженого стану основних деталей двигунів внутрішнього згоряння (ДВЗ), які дозволяють скоротити час їх проектування і дефектації. Складність конструкції поршня помітно зростає з необхідністю збільшення потужності енергетичного обладнання. Проектування поршня в тривимірній задачі з повною оцінкою фактичної конфігурації напружено-деформованого стану (НДС) на даний час є складною проблемою. Великі можливості для таких розрахунків має метод скінченних елементів (МСЕ). Стаття присвячена аналізу напруженодеформованого стану поршня в його матеріалах під впливом експлуатаційних навантажень з використанням сучасних CAD/CAE комплексів. Встановлено, що максимальні сумарні напруження за критерієм фон Мізеса становлять 178,7 МПа для двигуна RT-flex і 198,6 МПа для двигуна RTA, які спостерігаються в зоні контакту опорної поверхні днища поршня зі спідницею. В цілому діаграма розподілу напружень на іншій частині поршня показує рівномірний розподіл напружень на днищі поршня (в середньому 90...120 МПа) і на його бічній поверхні (10...15 МПа). Максимальні значення зміщення становлять 0,55 мм для двигуна RT-flex та 0,357 мм для двигуна RTA. Результати аналізу ізоповерхонь діаграми переміщень вказують на локалізацію максимальних переміщень у центральній частині поршневої головки.

Повітряна акробатика та пілонний спорт як засоби розвитку гнучкості та силової витривалості
Authors: Sorokolit Nataliia , Drach Tamara
Published: May 2024

The Relevance of the Research topic lies in the current stage of development of physical education in schools, characterized by the need to update content, constant search for effective methods to develop physical qualities, and the integration of innovations into physical education classes and extracurricular activities. One such innovation is aerial acrobatics and pole sports, which have gained popularity as forms of motor activity influencing students' interest in physical exercise and the development of physical qualities. The Purpose and Methods of the Research were to experimentally assess the impact of a comprehensive physical and technical training program in aerial acrobatics and pole sports on flexibility and power endurance development. The study employed analysis and synthesis of literature, pedagogical experimentation, and methods of mathematical statistics. The Results revealed improvements in flexibility indicators during «Bridge» exercises, changing from 45,07±5,42 cm to 37,13±3,79 cm; «Longitudinal split on the right» from -2,53±2,31 cm to 4,33±1,03 cm; «Left longitudinal split» from -4,7±1,47 cm to 4,47±1,17 cm; and
«Lumbar split» from -5,6±1,83 cm to -2,73±1,39 cm. A statistically significant difference was observed at p<0.05. Similar improvements were found in power endurance development, with statistically significant differences between experimental group (EG) and control group (CG) indicators. For instance, during the «Bending and extending the arms in a supine position» exercise, EG indicators improved from 21,93±1,2 times to 33,13±1,14 times, and the time of maintaining body position in the supine position changed from 125,33±11,66 s to 288,0±18,18 s (p<0,05). In Conclusion, it has been established that a comprehensive program of physical and technical training incorporating aerial acrobatics and pole sports, which includes general and specialized exercises along with technical training, is more effective and positively impacts the development of flexibility and strength endurance. This is evidenced by the statistically significant improvement in these physical qualities among the experimental group (EG) girls compared to the control group (CG) across all parameters studied.
Сучасні проблеми силової підготовки військовослужбовців підрозділів спеціального призначення

Topicality. The growing requirements for the level of functional capabilities of the body of servicemen of special purpose units require scientists, together with specialists from the Armed Forces of Ukraine, to develop effective mechanisms for improving the system of military training. The Goal of the Work. Studying the problem of the feasibility of implementing the results of modern research on adaptive changes in the body in the conditions of different load regimes into the process of military training of military personnel of special purpose units. Research Methods. The work uses a theoretical analysis and generalization of scientific literature and a sociological survey method. 25 physical training instructors in the Armed Forces and 84 servicemen of special purpose units (SPUs) took part in the study. The key issues were related to military training in the Armed Forces. A comparative analysis of the answers of instructors and servicemen with the results of research by leading scientists studying modern mechanisms for improving power capabilities was carried out. Research Results. It was established that the results of the survey of physical training instructors in the Armed Forces and military personnel of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in matters related to the use of control methods for adaptive changes in the body and load correction mechanisms do not fully correspond to the data presented by modern, mostly foreign scientists. Thus, in the modern system of force training of foreign armies, physiological, morphofunctional and biochemical methods of controlling adaptive changes in the body are actively used, and in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, as the results of our survey showed, only the heart rate indicator. Also, the Armed Forces do not use methods of quantitative assessment of force load parameters, which does not allow for the development of optimal load regimes for each category of servicemen. Conclusions. On the basis of the conducted research, it can be stated that the instructors and servicemen of the PSP who participated in the survey only minimally realize the potential that can be obtained in the process of military training. The absence of a mechanism for developing optimal load modes, their correction, and integral control of adaptive changes in the body will not allow to selectively increase the maximum strength or strength endurance indicators of the relevant muscle groups necessary for the implementation of combat tasks in a short period of time.
- Survey-based Mapping of Households’ Vulnerability Towards A Comprehensive Evacuation Plan in Karang Kendal, Mt. Merapi
Authors: Depari Catharina , Tjahyono Suhodo
Published: May 2024

To enhance resilience, a comprehensive evacuation map that considers the residents’ social vulnerability is critical. This paper aims to discuss this concern based on community service at Karang Kendal permanent housing in Mt. Merapi’s hazard zone level II, an area to which the Pelemsari community relocated and resided after the violent eruption in 2010. The planning methods used to create such a map are questionnaire surveys and field observations. The results indicate the highly vulnerable populations of the sub-village where 67% of the total 81 houses are occupied by 2-3 vulnerable residents and 68% of these populations are women. These findings then served as a basis for the making of an evacuation map that was not only integrated with the information on the distribution of vulnerable households but also capable of developing the residents’ awareness of disasters concerning their socio-demographic conditions.
Decontextualizing a Ban on Begging: A Multimodal Critical Analysis of Media and Political Discourse in Sweden
Authors: Breazu Petre
Published: May 2024

This article examines the representation of Romani migrants in the context of the 2016 debates to ban begging in Sweden, highlighting the ways in which media and political discourse misrepresented, simplified, or omitted the complexities surrounding this controversial policy. Drawing on Multimodal Critical Discourse Analysis (MCDA) of media reports from two leading Swedish newspapers, this article reveals that media and political discourse often decontextualize the ban by employing three key strategies: (1) generalization and polarization, (2) victimizing the general public, and (3) concealing the historical and global context of marginalization and poverty. By portraying begging as an undignified and harmful practice, media and political discourse deflect attention away from the systemic inequalities and socio-economic conditions that lead to begging. This article argues that this decontextualization serves to legitimize and reinforce the ban on begging, creating a self-perpetuating cycle that obstructs meaningful dialogue and prevents the implementation of more effective and compassionate policy solutions that address the root causes of begging in Sweden.
Best Practices for Measuring Skin Color in Surveys
Authors: Gordon Rachel A. , Branigan Amelia R. , Khan Mariya Adnan , Nunez Johanna G.
Published: May 2024

Surveys that assess skin color support evidence building about colorism and related systemic inequalities that affect health and wellbeing. Methodologists have increasing choices for such assessments, including a growing array of digital images for rating scales and increasingly cost-effective handheld mechanical devices based on color science. Guidance is needed for choosing among these growing options. We used data from a diverse sample of 102 college students to produce new empirical evidence and practical guidance about various options. We compared three handheld devices that ranged in price, considering variations in their reliabilities and how their results differed by where on the body and with what device settings readings were taken. We also offered evidence regarding how reliably interviewers and participants could choose from a large array of color swatches offering variation in skin undertone (redness, yellowness) in addition to skin shade (lightness-to-darkness). Overall, the results were promising, demonstrating that modern handheld devices and rating scales could be feasibly and reliably used. For instance, results demonstrated that just one or two device readings were needed at any given location, and, the device readings and rating scale scores similarly captured the relative darkness of skin. In other cases, recommendations were less certain. For instance, skin undertones of redness and yellowness were more sensitive to device choices and body locations. We encourage future studies that pursue why such variability exists and for which substantive questions it matters most.

Dessa maneira, a partir de uma perspectiva relacional entre autor-obra e obra-contexto, pretendemos investigar as possíveis conexões entre o romance do russo e seu contexto histórico, reunindo ao romance, aqui utilizado como fonte, uma bibliografia reunida a partir do viés de leitura crítica, buscando, ao fim, compor considerações atualizadas acerca da obra de Dostoiévski e do contexto da “Questão Feminina” da época.
Fogo cruzado: tensões na aurora da literatura soviética
Authors: Bonavina Rafael , Siphone Raquel
Published: May 2024

O presente trabalho discute o embate entre as vanguardas literárias e a linha geral do Partido Comunista no processo de formação do sistema literário soviético. Nosso estudo busca demonstrar como o problema da falta de acesso à cultura letrada serve de base para as diretrizes do Partido Comunista da União Soviética para a literatura no país. A partir dessa discussão, surge uma tensão entre as expectativas partidárias para a literatura e as poéticas de vanguarda que participavam intrinsecamente da formação da cultura soviética. Propomos, portanto, apresentar um estado geral e abrangente desse ambiente literário, que, a exemplo da estrutura social, passava por um momento de profundo abalo, criando ocasião oportuna para a discussão do papel da arte.
O Todos Pela Educação e as tecnologias educacionais nas políticas públicas: uma discussão crítica
Authors: Dias Renata Francisco
Published: May 2024

Este artigo problematiza a relação entre as tecnologias digitais e a educação sob um olhar crítico. Assim, foi realizada uma revisão da literatura sobre o uso das tecnologias na educação tendo Andrew Feenberg (2003, 2008, 2012), Neil Selwyn (2017) e Raquel Barreto (2009, 2012, 2018) como referência. Sob o aporte teórico de Michael Apple (2009), buscou-se discutir as relações de poder que emergem ao se pensar o currículo no Brasil quando atravessado pelas tecnologias. Para contextualizar a educação e a influência do empresariado junto ao poder público, sob a orientação da Análise Crítica do Discurso (FAIRCLOUGH, 2001), foi analisado o documento “Tecnologias na educação – Recomendações para a transformação digital da Educação Pública Brasileira” publicado em 2022 pelo Todos Pela Educação. O discurso proferido adere aos princípios neoliberais e legitima a percepção das tecnologias sob seus interesses. Espera-se que esta pesquisa contribua para estudos posteriores que investiguem o atual movimento do empresariado na educação pública brasileira.

Published: May 2024

This article describes and identifies the personal meanings that the multigrade schoolteacher has in the teaching of the decimal metric system, through the facets of didactic mathematical knowledge. In various investigations supported by this theory, the need to apply the notion of facets or didactic suitability as an instructional process in which teachers are knowledgeable and competent in an academic setting, has been visualized. In this sense, the research is framed in teachers of different areas of knowledge that guide mathematics in which ten teachers participated. The data collection is based on the analysis of a diagnostic test and a semi-structured interview. Finally, as one of the relevant results of the research, three epistemic configurations are obtained from the personal meanings identified in the teachers interviewed.

Authors: Marange Israel Yeukai , Tatira Benjamin
Published: May 2024

Teachers’ perceptions of integrating educational technologies such as GeoGebra in teaching varied according to gender and these disparities were explored. The pre- and post-technological pedagogical and content knowledge (TPACK) Likert questionnaires were used as data collection instruments. TPACK was also used as the framework underpinning the study. The researchers purposively sampled 22 mathematics secondary teachers from twelve randomly selected schools in one district. Of the 22 selected teachers, 13 were male and nine were female. The researchers adopted a quasi-experimental research design within a quantitative approach and used the descriptive and inferential statistics to analyze and interpret the results. The findings revealed that males ranked their familiarity and experience with several novel technologies higher than did females. There exist gender differences with more male than female teachers showing a greater benefit to most of TPACK components.

Authors: Swenson Rebecca , Nyquist Corrie
Published: May 2024

Citizen science programs offer the public opportunities to be involved in hands-on scientific data collection and study. Despite a history of incorporating citizen science in the K-12 classroom, little research has focused on projects that are appealing to both K-12 instructors and higher education faculty. Our study investigates initial barriers and motivations for participation in citizen science at multiple education levels using a winter, stream ecology citizen science project. Our findings indicate a growing interest in citizen science programs in winter, as they provide opportunities for collaboration, encourage flexible data collection, and offer tangible results for participants to reflect on their local ecological habitats.

This research investigates the subject-wise English language reading skills of bachelor level engineering students at Mid-West University in Nepal, aiming to bridge a crucial gap in understanding their comprehension levels, vocabulary acquisition, and reading strategies across various disciplines. Drawing on the specialized form of English language instruction known as English for Academic Purposes (EAP), the study assesses students' proficiency in comprehending academic materials. Despite challenges in implementation, EAP instructors recognize the value of formative assessment in enhancing student learning and academic performance. The findings reveal significant variations in reading preferences and habits across engineering disciplines, highlighting areas for focused assistance and development of reading abilities. Specifically, students studying computer engineering demonstrate higher mean reading proficiency compared to their counterparts in civil and hydropower engineering. The study underscores the importance of English language proficiency for academic success, particularly in fields like engineering where collaboration and communication span global boundaries. It also sheds light on the gradual progress and reforms in English language education in Nepal, emphasizing the need for tailored interventions and resources to enhance reading skills among engineering students. Recommendations include investing in teacher training programs focused on EAP methodologies, developing tailored resources, and promoting interdisciplinary collaborations to address subject-specific reading challenges. By addressing these recommendations, Nepal can better prepare its engineering students to succeed in academic and professional contexts where English proficiency is essential.

Diabetes Mellitus and hypertension often occur simultaneously. Hypertension affects approximately 70% of patients with diabetes, and the risk of cardiovascular disease in diabetic patients is three times higher than that in healthy individuals. The study was aimed at investigating the problem of diabetes and hypertension, and a possible remedy for it. Twenty-five (25) male wistar rats were assigned into five (5) groups of five (5) rats each. Group A served as negative control, and received water and feed only. Group B served as the positive control, and received alloxan160 mg/kg BW+ salt-loaded diet. Group C-E received alloxan 160 mg/kg BW+ salt-loaded diet + 100 mg/kg BW, 200 mg/kg BW, and 300 mg/kg BW of ethanolic acalypha wilkesiana (EAW) respectively. All administrations were given orally twice daily for 21 days. At the end of the treatment, blood samples were collected to estimate blood glucose, insulin, sodium, and potassium levels. Results are presented as mean±SEM, and were analysed using One-way ANOVA, statistical significance was considered at (P≤0.05). The results showed decrease in blood glucose levels and increase in insulin levels in groups C, D, and E compared to group B. There was also a decrease in sodium ion levels, and a concomitant increase in potassium ion levels in all wistar rat treatment groups when compared to group B. In summary, the results showed improved blood sugar, insulin, sodium, and potassium ion levels following EAW administration. It is therefore concluded that EAW administration was effective in improving diabetic and hypertensive complications in wistar rats.

The Sanskrit Paradigm of Tamil Grammar: Embrace and Resistance
Authors: Annamalai E.
Published: May 2024

This paper is about the historical relationship between the grammars of Sanskrit and Tamil and the debates around that relationship. The debates are between the grammarians and commentators on grammars, not of Sanskrit but of Tamil. It is thus limited to one linguistic community. This is a result of the asymmetrical bilingualism of the Tamil-speaking grammarians and the Sanskrit-speaking grammarians. Their many other relationships, religious, literary, etc. are also asymmetrical in the sub-continental perspective. The regional perspective of Tamil about the relationship of Tamil to Sanskrit is different but is not constant and varies according to the period and its language ideology.
‘To Be Smeared’ or ‘To Be Attached’?
An Investigation of Sanskrit lipyate kāmaiḥ and Pāli lippati kāmesu in Light of Their Chinese Translations
Authors: Barchi Francesco
Published: May 2024

In Buddhist translated literature, the Chinese expression bù rǎn yú yù 不染於欲 (not attached to desires) is apparently used as variant of the passive construction bù wéi yù suǒ rǎn 不為欲所染 (not tainted by desires) to translate the same Sanskrit source expression na lipyate kāmaiḥ (not being smeared by desires). An Indic parallel closer to bù rǎn yú yù 不染於欲, namely na lippati kāmesu (not being attached to desires), is found in Pāli and in some Hybrid sources. This paper argues that the Sanskrit and Pāli forms can be traced back to a common archetype akin to the Pāli form and that the -ya-present lipyate was originally used as a class IV intransitive present. Owing to use of the historical instrumental suffix -ehi as a generalised oblique plural ending in Middle Indo-Aryan, the form lipyate kāmehi (< *lipyate kāmeṣu) was eventually reanalysed as a present passive. The two variants found in Chinese translations bear witness to the semantic and grammatical ambiguity underlying the Indic source expression.
