Published: September 2024

Purpose: This study aims to examine coaches' daytime sleepiness levels in relation to gender, physical activity level, and certain anthropometric variables.
Materials and Methods: The study involved 330 coaches (173 women) from various sports in Istanbul. Daytime sleepiness was measured using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale, and physical activity levels were assessed with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) short form. Anthropometric data (body weight, height, waist circumference) were self-reported.
Results: Female coaches had higher Epworth Sleepiness Scale scores than male coaches (p < 0.05). Male coaches had higher IPAQ scores, waist circumferences, and BMIs compared to female coaches (p = 0.00). There was no correlation between daytime sleepiness and BMI (r = .066) or waist circumference (r = -.050) (p > 0.05). A significant negative correlation was found between physical activity level and daytime sleepiness (r = -113, p < 0.05).
Conclusion: The study found a significant negative correlation between physical activity and daytime sleepiness, highlighting the importance of physical activity for sleep health. The young age of participants may limit the generalizability of these results, suggesting a need for further research with older adults.

Children’s interactions and lifestyles worldwide have greatly benefited from the expansion of the internet gaming sector. However, the practice of minors purchasing and reselling online game certificates has prompted concerns about the accountability of corporate operators and potential legal repercussions. In the context of minors purchasing online game vouchers, this study investigates the responsibilities of commercial actors and the legal implications. This research methodology uses a normative legal approach to gather data from the literature, relevant judicial judgments, statutes, and regulations. This analysis aims to comprehend corporate actors' accountability, legal ramifications, and parents' function in this type of transaction. The findings demonstrated that business actors who offer online game vouchers have a duty to uphold the legitimacy of transactions. Businesses have a responsibility to make sure that such transactions adhere to ethical and legal standards, even though many laws forbid minors from engaging in transactions without their parent's permission. The legal ramifications of minors purchasing and selling online game vouchers may include possible violations of consumer rights, the protection of personal data, and provisions of contracts that may be void owing to age restrictions. Monitoring and limiting their children's access to these kinds of transactions is a crucial responsibility for parents. Collaboration between commercial actors, the government, and parents is required to maintain the integrity and protection of children in online game voucher purchasing and selling operations.

Authors: Akkoyun Ozan , Kacar İlyas
Published: September 2024

Drag link is one of the important parts in steering system used in automotive. The ball joint, ball joint housing, and pipe compose the drag link. In this study, finite element analysis is used to simulate the deformation process. St 52 steel material is used. A yield criterion, an associated flow rule, and Chaboche’s kinematic hardening rule were used in the finite ele-ment simulations of processes involving high plastic deformation. A series of low-cycle ten-sile/compression tests is performed to determine the parameters of Chaboche’s kinematic hardening rule. The success of the simulation results depends on the more accuracy of the finding parameters. Some optimization methods are used in the calibration progression of these parameters and the results are compared. For the purpose of optimization, the angle of the pipe after bending is set as 16.6 as soon as possible. As design variables, the Chaboche kinematic hardening rule parameters were adjusted. Consequently, calibrated parameters were obtained for St52 pipe bending. By analysing and verifying the candidate points, opti-mization methods are compared. The optimum parameters are determined as YS=350 MPa, C=2984.3 MPa, and =100 while their initial values are YS=373.806 MPa, C=4016 MPa, and =94. It is concluded that the optimization process gives more consistency in the bending process.
A Study on the Effects of Preheating Thevetia Peruviana Biodiesel on the Performance of CI Engine
Authors: Jaichandar S
Published: September 2024

Biodiesel is becoming increasingly popular as a substitute fuel for compression ignition (CI) engines because of its comparable characteristics to those of diesel and its little environmental impact. The development of diesel engines that run on biodiesel and reduce emissions of pollutants, while also improving thermal efficiency, are key concerns in engine design. The most crucial prerequisites for achieving these are precise and quick air-fuel mixing. However, biodiesel's viscosity is considered a drawback for its application as a substitute fuel for IC engines. Heating can greatly lower the viscosity, which can eliminate the problems caused by excessive viscosity during injection. Hence in this effort, preheated Thevetia Peruviana biodiesel (Methyl Ester) is utilized. The present research aims to examine how preheating biodiesel affects the operation of a direct injection (DI) diesel engine. Engine tests were done on a stationary, single-cylinder, constant speed, naturally aspirated, water-cooled CI engine with a preheated 20% blend of Thevetia Peruviana biodiesel (PH-TPME20 with a conventional jerk type injection system. Engine performance of preheated TPME20 was compared with the unheated 20% blend of TPME and diesel. Preheating reduced the viscosity of the oil, which resulted in a noticeable improvement in engine performance. A considerable drop in emission levels from the engine exhaust gas was noted. The preheating improved combustion characteristics i.e. it lowered the delay period and resulted in quicker release of heat because of improved fuel-air mixing, fuel vaporization, and atomization.
Virtual Analysis and Optimization of Fuel Consumption for Diesel-Powered Buses
Authors: Taymaz İmdat , Yılmazlar Ahmet Murat
Published: September 2024

In this study, fuel consumption test cycles and commonly used SORT cycles for buses were discussed. An exemplary bus model was extensively modeled in terms of power systems. In ad-dition to main components such as the engine, transmission, torque converter, and axle, the drags of engine-powered components such as alternators, engine cooling fan, and air conditioning compressor were integrated into the powertrain model to ensure that the calculated consumption comes as close as possible to the real-life values. The tire model, which determines the quality standard in vehicle simulation, was also discussed in detail. During the modeling of these components, necessary parameters were obtained through analyses and tests conducted on the sample vehicle using the CAN bus and added sensors.
After the completion of the model, real-life tests were conducted to validate the virtual analysis results. Once the model was validated, virtual studies continued to reduce the vehicle's consumption. Particularly during these studies, reducing consumption and enhancing performance through automatic transmission optimization were emphasized. When virtual models validated with SORT simulations are optimized with route-specific virtual analysis, public vehicles will minimize environmental impacts by reducing carbon emissions and at the same time perform more efficiently.

Authors: Lukashova T. D. , Drushlyak M. G.
Published: September 2024

In the paper, the properties of infinite locally finite groups with non-Dedekind locally nil\-potent norms of Abelian non-cyclic subgroups are studied. It is proved that such groups are finite extensions of a quasicyclic subgroup and contain Abelian non-cyclic $p$-subgroups for a unique prime $p$. In particular, in the paper is prove the following assertions: 1) Let $G$ be an infinite locally finite group and contain the locally nilpotent norm $N_{G}^{A}$ with the non-Hamiltonian Sylow $p$-subgroup $(N_{G}^{A})_{p}$. Then $G$ is a finite extension of a quasicyclic $p$-subgroup, all Sylow $p'$-subgroups are finite and do not contain Abelian non-cyclic subgroups. In particular, Sylow $q$-subgroups ($q$ is an odd prime, $q\in \pi(G)$, $q\neq p$) are cyclic, Sylow $2$-subgroups ($p\neq 2$) are either cyclic or finite quaternion $2$-groups (Theorem 1). 2) Let $G$ be a locally finite non-locally nilpotent group with the infinite locally nilpotent non-Dedekind norm $N_{G}^{A}$ of Abelian non-cyclic subgroups. Then $G=G_{p} \leftthreetimes H,$ where $G_{p}$ is an infinite $\overline{HA}_{p}$-group of one of the types (1)--(4) of Proposition~2 in present paper, which coincides with the Sylow $p$-subgroup of the norm $N_{G}^{A}$, $H$ is a finite group, all Abelian subgroups of which are cyclic, and $(|H|,p)=1$. Any element $h\in H$ of odd order that centralizes some Abelian non-cyclic subgroup $M\subset N_{G}^{A}$ is contained in the centralizer of the norm $N_{G}^{A}$. (Theorem 2).3) Let $G$ be an infinite locally finite non-locally nilpotent group with the finite nilpotent non-Dedekind norm $N_{G}^{A}$ of Abelian non-cyclic subgroups. Then$G=H\leftthreetimes K,$ where $H$ is a finite group, all Abelian subgroups of which are cyclic,$\left(\left|H\right|,2\right)=1$, $K$ is an infinite 2-group of one of the types (5)--(6) of Proposition~2 (in present paper). Moreover, the norm $N_{K}^{A}$ of Abelian non-cyclic subgroups of the group $K$ is finite, $K\cap N_{G}^{A}=N_{K}^{A}$ and coincides with the Sylow 2-subgroup $(N_{G}^{A})_2$ of the norm $N_{G}^{A}$ of a group $G$.Moreover, any element $h\in H$ of the centralizer of some Abelian non-cyclic subgroup $M \subset N_{G}^{A}$ is contained in the centralizer of the norm $N_{G}^{A}$.

Published: September 2024

This paper explores the topological properties of irresolute topological groups, their quotient maps, and the role of topology in normal subgroups. It provides a detailed analysis\linebreak using examples and counterexamples. The study focuses on the essential features of irresolute topological groups and their quotient groups, for understanding the topological aspects of isotropy groups. For a trans\-for\-ma\-tion group $(\mathsf{H}, \mathsf{Y}, \psi)$ and a point $y \in \mathsf{Y},$ the set
\centerline{$\mathsf{H}_{y} = \{h \in \mathsf{H} \colon hy = y\}$}
\noi consisting of elements of $\mathsf{H}$ that fix $y$, is called the isotropy group at $y$.
The paper highlights the distinct topological characteristics of isotropy groups in transformation group structure. It demonstrates that if $(\mathsf{H}, \mathsf{Y}, \psi)$ is an Irr$^{*}$-topological transformation group, then $( \mathsf{H}/ \mathop{Ker} \psi, \mathsf{Y}, \overline{\psi})$ forms an effective Irr$^{*}$-topological transformation group. By investigating both irresolute topological groups and isotropy groups, the study provides a clear understanding of their topological features. This research improves our understanding of these groups by offering clear examples and counterexamples, leading to a thorough conclusion about their different topological features.

Published: September 2024

Rootstocks, which are becoming increasingly important in viticulture, influence the growth, yield, and grape quality of the grafted variety. Therefore, understanding the resistance characteristics of rootstocks to phylloxera, nematodes, environmental conditions, and abiotic and biotic stresses is crucial. Selecting a rootstock that is appropriate for the region where the vineyard will be established optimizes grape quality. The aim of this research is to determine the performance of the cv. Papazkarası on different rootstocks. For this purpose, an experiment was established at Irem Çamlica Viticulture and Winery Co. vineyard in Kırklareli province. Ten-year-old Papazkarası vines grafted onto 1103P, 110R, and 420A rootstocks were used as plant material. To determine the growth of the vines, parameters such as shoot elongation rate (cm/week), shoot length changings (cm), pruning wood weight (PW) (kg/vine), vigor (g), puissance, number of buds per square meter (number), balanced pruning buds number (number/vine), vegetative growth (VG), Ravaz Index (RI), Partridge Index (PI), and yield (kg/vine) were examined. Additionally, to determine cluster characteristics, cluster width and length (cm), weight (g), and the volume of gappy and spaceless clusters (cm³) were measured. The results of the research indicated that the 1103P rootstock had the lowest yield, puissance, RI, PI, and VG values; moderate values for PW, vigor, number of shoots, number of berries per cluster, and cluster length; and the highest values for cluster weight, the volume of gappy and spaceless clusters. The 110R rootstock was found to be more balanced compared to other rootstocks, with the highest values for vigor, RI, and PI; average values for yield, puissance, and VG; and the lowest values for PW, number of shoots, number of berries per cluster, cluster length, weight, and the volume of gappy and spaceless clusters. The 420A rootstock had the highest values for yield, PW, VG, number of shoots, number of berries per cluster, and cluster width and length; average values for RI, PI, cluster weight, and the volume of gappy and spaceless clusters; and the lowest value for one-year-old cane weight. In conclusion, based on the characteristics outlined, a selection can be made from these rootstocks according to cultivation purposes, but other rootstocks should also be investigated.
Fuzzy Regression Discontinuity Designs With Multiple Control Groups Under One-Sided Noncompliance: Evaluating Extended Time Accommodations
Authors: Suk Youmi , Kim Yongnam
Published: September 2024

Since its conception by Thistlethwaite and Campbell, a regression discontinuity (RD) design has continuously evolved and progressed in various aspects. This paper explores a novel theoretical advancement in fuzzy RD designs by combining them with multiple control groups under one-sided noncompliance. Within this approach, we estimate the average treatment effect on the treated at the cutoff from the fuzzy RD design and construct its bounds derived from multiple control groups. Using the bounds as a sensitivity check, we examine whether the underlying causal or statistical assumptions for the fuzzy RD design are warranted. We verify the effectiveness of our approach via a simulation study and demonstrate its application by studying the effect of extended time accommodations using data from the National Assessment of Educational Progress.

Preprint servers and journals: Rivals or allies?
Authors: Chtena Natascha , Alperin Juan Pablo , Pinfield Stephen , Fleerackers Alice , Pasquetto Irene
Published: September 2024

This paper examines the evolving role of preprint servers within the scholarly communication system and their relationship with peer-reviewed journals. Historically prominent in fields like physics and mathematics, preprints have flourished in popularity across various disciplines in the past decade. Today, over 50 preprint servers exist, offering a platform for early and rapid dissemination of research findings. Preprint servers have traditionally fulfilled several functions of scholarly communication, including registration of research findings and archiving. However, recent trends indicate a shift towards servers challenging the established roles of peer-reviewed journals by adopting aspects of the certification and curation function. Through qualitative analysis of in-depth interviews with 14 preprint server managers, this study explores how preprint servers view their role in the certification and curation of scientific knowledge, the significant challenges facing preprints, and the potential future dynamics between preprint servers and peer-reviewed journals. Our findings point to a lack of consensus on how the relationship between preprint servers and journals could or should develop, and to diverging views on how the certification and curation functions are best performed, and by whom. We consider these tensions in the context of the ongoing sustainability and credibility challenges faced by preprint servers, situate them within evolving research policy frameworks, and discuss their implications for the diversity of future scholarly communication practices.
Atlantic will tear us apart: sand provenance correlation of Early Cretaceous aeolian strata from the conjugate margins of Africa and South America

Published: September 2024

The Twyfelfountein Formation in Namibia and the Botucatu Formation in East South America represent a single dune-field separated through rifting of Gondwana during the Cretaceous. The Early Cretaceous Botucatu desert was the last depositional system operating in the Gondwanan heartland prior to continental drift initiated by the Paraná-Etendeka large igneous province. The dry-aeolian dunes, draas and sandsheet deposits of the Botucatu Formation are also present in the Twyfelfountein Formation. We aim to test whether the two formations had a similar provenance. The provenance of the Twyfelfountein is established using a multiproxy dataset including petrography, grain-size, heavy mineral composition and geochemistry, and detrital zircon U-Pb dating (16 samples from 5 sites in the Huab Basin, Namibia). Results indicate dominantly fine-to-medium feldspatho-quartose sands, rich in resistate minerals such as tourmaline, garnet and Fe-Ti oxides. Detrital zircon ages yielded mostly Cambrian-Neoproterozoic (450 to 650 Ma) ages. The geochemistry of garnet and tourmalines shows that these grains are originally sourced from amphibolite-facies metasedimentary rocks and acidic granitoids. The Botucatu Formation typically comprises sands that are quartzose, fine-medium sized, ZTR-rich with a predominance of Neoproterozoic detrital zircon ages. Based in this work and previously published data, the Twyfelfountein Formation sands are considered very similar to those of the Botucatu Formation, demonstrating a similar provenance for, and supporting the correlation of both units. The sands of the palaeodesert were derived from reworking of underlying strata from the Paraná and Huab basins. Furthermore, comparison of the datasets for both the Twyfelfountein and Botucatu formations shows a trend from SW to SE in sand composition due to the changes in the composition of the underlying pre-desert strata.
Media Literacy Interventions Improve Resilience to Misinformation: A Meta-Analytic Investigation of Overall Effect and Moderating Factors
Authors: Huang Guanxiong , JIA Wufan , Yu Wenting
Published: September 2024

The widespread dissemination of misinformation has become a global concern. A recommended solution is to improve people’s ability to discern true from false information through appropriate media literacy education programs. This meta-analysis quantitatively synthesized the results of 49 experimental studies (N = 81,155) that examined the efficacy of media literacy interventions in mitigating misinformation. This study finds that media literacy interventions generally improve resilience to misinformation (d = 0.60). Specifically, the interventions reduce belief in misinformation (d = 0.27), improve misinformation discernment (d = 0.76), and decrease misinformation sharing (d = 1.04). Moreover, media literacy interventions have stronger effects (1) when multiple sessions rather than a single session are implemented, (2) in high (versus low) uncertainty avoidance cultures, and (3) among college students than among adults recruited from online crowdsourcing platforms (e.g., Amazon Mechanical Turk). These findings enrich our understanding of inoculation theory and provide valuable guidance for the design of future media literacy intervention programs.
Evaluating the Ten Second Triage Tool: A novel multi-agency pre-hospital triage tool for major incidents
Authors: Davidson Louise , Vassallo James , Cowburn Phil , Bull Dave , Moran Chris , Carter Holly
Published: September 2024

Recent inquests following major incidents in the UK have criticised the ‘care gap’ – the time period between an incident occurring and emergency services accessing casualties to deliver life-saving interventions. To address this, the Ten Second Triage (TST) tool was developed in the UK to facilitate rapid non-physiological assessments by any first responder, regardless of their profession or organisation. TST aims to speed up the delivery of early life-saving interventions and facilitate the prioritisation of casualties, ultimately improving casualty outcomes in major incidents. The current study evaluated TST’s usability through a series of live exercises with specialist and non-specialist responders from a variety of Police, Fire and Rescue, and Ambulance Services in the UK participating. Focus groups and questionnaires were used to capture participants perceptions of TST and their experiences using it during the exercises. Results show that a multi-agency triage tool can be used, and responders are confident using it, to facilitate the delivery of early life-saving interventions and casualty prioritisation by responders regardless of their clinical background. Results also highlighted key considerations for the practicalities of using a multi-agency triage tool in real emergencies, including the importance of reciprocal trust, collaborative training, and a shared understanding of terminology. Recommendations on the content and format informed TST’s development and integration into UK practice in Spring 2023.

Navigation and episodic memory are foundational cognitive processes that guide future decisions and are often linked to one another due to their behavioral and neural similarities. However, the extent and nature of their interdependence is unclear. We investigated this question using a real-world encoding experience with 8- to 13-year-old children and young adults. Participants were guided on a tour during which they learned the spatial locations of a series of objects and had various experiences with them. Factor analysis of three measures commonly used to assess spatial memory and four tests commonly used for episodic memory revealed two highly correlated latent factors. The first factor, which we termed spatiotemporal structure, included measures that require simultaneously representing all or part of the environment (finding routes, mapping the space symbolically, free recall of the experience, and spatial-temporal recognition). The second factor, which we termed perceptual/factual/locale, included perceptual and semantic recognition along with judgments of relative direction. These findings show that episodic memory and spatial representations are intertwined in naturalistic encoding and suggest directions for refining models of the function of these two systems.
Evaluating the effectiveness, costs, and challenges of deposit return systems for beverage containers: A meta-analysis
Authors: Lakhan Calvin
Published: September 2024

AbstractThis study conducts a comprehensive meta-analysis to evaluate the effectiveness, economic costs, and long-term sustainability of deposit return systems (DRS) for beverage containers across various countries. DRS are recognized as a critical strategy to enhance recycling rates, reduce environmental waste, and support the transition toward a circular economy. While empirical evidence from countries like Germany, Norway, and Lithuania indicates that DRS can achieve recycling rates exceeding 90%, challenges such as high setup costs, stakeholder resistance, policy inconsistency, and adaptability to market changes complicate their implementation and sustainability. The analysis synthesizes data from diverse geographic contexts, highlighting the factors that contribute to the success or failure of DRS, including public engagement, policy stability, technological adaptation, and effective stakeholder collaboration. The findings suggest that while DRS can provide substantial environmental and economic benefits, their long-term success is contingent upon sustained public participation, consistent policies, adaptability to market shifts, and robust stakeholder engagement. This study offers critical insights for policymakers, environmental advocates, and industry stakeholders seeking to optimize DRS as a tool for sustainable waste management.

Democracy, the Internet, and Capitalism: A Reply to Elisabeth Korn and Jens Schröter
Authors: Fuchs Christian
Published: September 2024

This paper is a reply to Elisabeth Korn and Jens Schröter’s essay “On a Potential Paradox of Public Service Media” which is part of tripleC’s special issue “Critical Perspectives on Digital Capitalism: Theories and Praxis”. My reflections focus on the notion of filtering, the relationship between broadcasting and the Internet; the relationship of media, technology, and society; and questions of (digital) democracy. On the one hand, there is a number of points where I agree with Korn and Schröter. On the other hand, their reflections also raised questions that I point out and that are not answered in their paper.
Progressive inclusion of forage in the diet of growing-finishing pigs
Authors: González Pérez Andrea , Astigarraga Laura
Published: September 2024

The effect of the inclusion of two forages (alfalfa and chicory) with different soluble fiber (SF) content on the apparent digestibility (DA) of nutrients, nitrogen retention (NR) and the productive response of diets for pigs was evaluated in three physiological states. The digestibility test consisted of a sequence of three in vivo digestibility and metabolism with nine animals, castrated males. Each test corresponded to a weight phase and to an inclusion level. In the performance test, 27 animals were used, evaluating the progressive inclusion of the two forages from rearing to finishing. The treatments in the two experiments were: control base diet (T0) formulated based on corn and soybean meal, and base diet with alfalfa (T1) (Medicago sativa var. Chaná) or with chicory (T2) (Cichorium intibus var. Lacerta) for phases (F) of rearing I (F1, 40-60 kg LW), rearing II (F2, 60-80 kg LW) and finishing (F3, 80 to 100 kg LW). The results showed that the in vivo apparent digestibility (AD) of OM in the diet was reduced by around 10 % (P < 0.05) when forage was included for all levels evaluated (10, 20 and 30 %) compared to with the control diet (88 %). However, the final weight and daily gain did not differ between treatments, given the higher dry matter intake recorded. There was no reduction in the digestive utilization of fiber determined as NDF, FI, FS in diets with forage as the inclusion level increased, but higher records were obtained for the weight of the components of the gastrointestinal tract of pigs, in particular the colon on T2 (P < 0.05), which negatively affected carcass yield in these animals (77.4 %, P < 0.05). This work contributes with information to carry out an optimal substitution of conventional feeds in pursuit of the development of sustainable feeding systems in pig production.

Peneliti melihat dan menggarisbawahi bahwa para tokoh satu dengan yang lain saling melengkapi teori-teori yang menguatkan satu sama lain. Sehingga kesimpulannya adalah para tokoh memberikan puzzel satu dan yang lainnya melengkapi puzzel itu dengan kondisi yang terjadi saat ini.
Politicization of Caste in India
Authors: Singh Bharat
Published: September 2024

After gaining independence, the modern form of Indian politics began to develop. It was expected that with the establishment of a democratic system, casteism in India would come to an end. However, the opposite happened. Casteism not only persisted in society but also infiltrated politics, taking on an aggressive form. Casteism has not only influenced India's economic, social, cultural, and religious tendencies but has also significantly impacted politics. Caste has played a crucial role in Indian politics. Not only central but also state-level politics have been affected by casteism, which poses a serious threat to the democratic system. This has hindered national unity and the path to development.
Abstract in Hindi Language: स्वाधीनता प्राप्ति के पश्चात् भारतीय राजनीति का आधुनिक स्वरूप विकसित हुआ। अतः यह संभावना व्यक्त की जाने लगी कि देश में लोकतांत्रिक व्यवस्था स्थापित होने पर भारत से जातिवाद समाप्त हो जायेगा लेकिन ऐसा नहीं हुआ बल्कि जातिवाद ने न केवल समाज में बल्कि राजनीति में भी प्रवेश करके उग्र रूप धारण कर लिया है। भारत में जातिवाद ने न केवल यहाँ की आर्थिक, सामाजिक, सांस्कृतिक, धार्मिक, प्रवृतियों को ही प्रभावित किया है, बल्कि राजनीति को भी पूर्ण रूप से प्रभावित किया है। भारत की राजनीति में जाति ने महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका निभाई है। केन्द्र ही नहीं राजस्तरीय राजनीति भी जातिवाद से प्रभावित है, जो लोकतांत्रिक व्यवस्था के लिए बहुत ही खतरनाक है, क्योंकि इसके कारण राष्ट्रीय एकता एवं विकास मार्ग अवरूद्ध हो रहा है।

PROEJA e seu Currículo
Authors: Batista Oliveira Santos Ronielle , Cintra de Souza Gomes Erbs , Silene da Silva Maria
Published: September 2024

O objetivo deste artigo é provocar uma reflexão sobre o conceito do currículo PROEJA .Devido a uma natureza especial, muitos discentes se relacionam com realidades semelhantes de injustiça, por esse motivo precisamos pensar a educação ou as aprendizagens necessárias  dos jovens, que tampouco se esgota na parte explícita do projeto de socialização cultural nas escolas.Para analisar e contextualizar as propostas do currículo, para entendermos melhor como funciona fizemos um breve levantamento da definição de currículo e como ele é importante para a construção do saber discente visando proporcionar um processo de ensino de conversação crítico e libertador por meio da estruturação de seu currículo e de propostas de programas. 
Faz-se necessário reconsiderar nossas práticas, nossa construção de currículo ajustando as ações pedagógicas para promover o efetivo exercício da cidadania e também perceber que a sala de aula constitui-se em um ambiente com diferentes vivências que podem ser aproveitadas para estimular os alunos facilitando e dinamizando as aulas, bem como criando espaços para o desenvolvimento pessoal através de diversas experiências e vivências independente das dificuldades que o aluno traga consigo, prática de um currículo vivo construído por todos os elementos participantes do ambiente escolar e que viabilizem novas práticas educativas, possibilita uma maior aproximação entre esses diferentes sujeitos e o objeto de conhecimento, caracterizando assim uma unificação entre os saberes escolares, os saberes dos professores e os saberes dos alunos
Estruturalismo e Prática pedagógica
Authors: Silva Abigail Noádia Barbalho da , Bezerra Diogo Pereira , Pontes Verônica Maria De Ara´újo , De Oliveira Marcos Antonio
Published: September 2024

O objetivo deste estudo é compreender em que medida os principais referentes teóricos da educação, desenvolvidos nos estudos de Piaget, Vygotsky e Freire, dialogam com o paradigma filosófico do estruturalismo, e o que resulta dessa relação para a compreensão sobre a prática pedagógica. Metodologicamente, trata-se de uma pesquisa teórica, de cunho bibliográfico, cujas fontes são as obras A formação social da mente (VYGOTSKY, 1991); A Psicologia da criança (PIAGET, 2006); e, Pedagogia da autonomia (FREIRE, 2003), em diálogo com outras que elucidam os fundamentos teóricos dos autores mencionados. Recorre-se à análise interpretativa para compor o pensamento reflexivo sobre seu conteúdo, considerando a relação histórica do campo conceitual das obras citadas. O principal resultado mostrou que a relação dos autores com o estruturalismo segue três movimentos: em Piaget, encontra-se um redimensionamento das estruturas, pois compreende a inteligência como uma estrutura em evolução, formada por níveis que se justapõem entre si até alcançar a maturidade cognitiva. Já em Vygotsky, percebe-se um afastamento progressivo, por incorporar o elemento histórico-cultural no desenvolvimento cognitivo, isto é, a diacronia. E, finalmente, em Freire, tem-se a superação radical do estruturalismo ao centrar o processo pedagógico no ato comunicativo caracterizado por ação-reflexão, o que caracteriza o desenvolvimento da consciência de mundo. Nesse sentido, a prática pedagógica poderá ser compreendida não apenas como espaço de construção de saberes, mas como espaço marcado pelas interações sociais, e, finalmente como espaço de emancipação e transformação das estruturas histórico-sociais injustas. 
Palavras-chaves: inteligência, funções cognitivas superiores, diacronia, emancipação, autonomia.

A indústria de bebidas vem inovando nos últimos anos para atender as expectativas e exigências dos consumidores. Sendo assim, os blends vêm como uma forma de agregar valor às bebidas produzidas nas indústrias, incrementando minerais e vitaminas bem como compostos bioativos. O trabalha objetiva o desenvolvimento de blend de jambolão e água de coco e a avaliação das características físicas, físico-química e compostos bioativos da bebida. O jambolão foi obtido de plantas oriundas do IFPB campus Sousa e os frutos de coco verde foram adquiridos do comércio local da cidade de Sousa, Paraíba, onde foram encaminhados para laboratório de Processamento de frutas e hortaliças. Posteriormente obtida a polpa e a água dos frutos de coco verde, foram separadas amostras e encaminhadas para o laboratório de físico-química para a realização das análises de umidade, cinzas, pH, acidez titulável, proteína, sólidos solúveis (ºBrix), antocianinas totais, compostos fenólicos, açúcares redutores e cor. Após realização das análises físico-químicas, foram elaboradas as 9 formulações da bebida denominadas de F1 até F9, com diferentes concentrações de polpa de jambolão, água de coco e açúcar. Os resultados das análises nas formulações dos blends destacaram os valores dos compostos bioativos como os de antocianinas totais das formulações: (F2) 10,78; (F5) 11,83; (F8) 11,70 e (F9) 10,89 e dos compostos bioativos das formulações: (F2) 33,51; (F7) 32,63 e (F8) 32,96. Assim as formulações dos blends mostraram características físico-químicas semelhantes ao de outros trabalhos com a mesma temática, além de apresentarem quantidades significativas de compostos bioativos.
