Features of Monetization of Internet Media: on the Example of Internet Periodicals of the Belgorod Region
Authors: Kornysheva Polina
Published: January 2024

This article is devoted to the study of methods of monetization of online periodicals, the study of its features, as well as the analysis of online periodicals of the Belgorod region for the use of various approaches to the issue of monetization. The subject of the research in the article are the Internet periodicals of the Belgorod region, leading the rating of the Information and analytical online service "Medialogia" for 2020, as the most cited periodicals of the Belgorod region for the specified year. The research method includes content analysis and comparative analysis of the techniques and methods used to monetize online media. The main objective of the study was to identify current ways of monetization of online periodicals and to detect trends in their further development.  Such a study of online periodicals of the Belgorod region was carried out for the first time, which explains its significance and novelty. During the analysis, the following conclusions were made: currently there is no single business model for monetization of online media. However, further expansion of the range of advertising services offered is inevitable: almost any media outlet has an electronic analogue on the Internet, which means it is becoming increasingly difficult to compete. In order to attract advertisers and audiences, online publications need to take a comprehensive approach to monetization issues and regularly analyze feedback. Online publications of the Belgorod region mostly offer advertisers exactly this approach, but banner advertising is predominant. The least used way of monetization is a paid subscription to content.
The specifics of conditional conjunctions in modern Russian
Authors: Wang Lan
Published: January 2024

The subject of research are the conjunctions used in a complex sentence to convey conditional relations. In the Russian language, the group of conjunctions capable of expressing the meaning of a condition is quite voluminous. In this article we turn to an insufficiently deeply developed issue, namely, the analysis of conjunctions located on the periphery of the means condition expressions. The purpose of the study is to identify conjunctions based on lexicographic sources and speech contexts that can express a conditional relation, and, using the example of a conjunction "добро бы", describe its semantic and pragmatic potential. The article uses the descriptive method, as well as the method of definitional analysis and elements of component and transformational analysis. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that 1) the analysis of dictionary entries of conditional conjunctions is given, the grouping of conditional conjunctions is described; 2) the experience of a comprehensive analysis of the conjunction of "добро бы" is demonstrated and its additional meanings (presumptive condition, conditionally opposed), as well as modal shades (assessment and desire) are revealed. The conclusions and materials of the study can be used in lectures, special courses and special seminars for students of philological and pedagogical specialties, in improving school curricula, creating textbooks, collections of exercises. The relevance of the study lies in the fact that, despite the many scientific papers devoted to specific conjunctions that are located in the central zone of the means of expressing conditional relations, the question of the interpretative potential of peripheral conditional conjunctions (the number of which is very large) has not been worked out deeply enough.
Genre features of historical legends of the Ingush
Authors: Kostoeva Aishat Magometovna
Published: January 2024

The author examines in detail the features of the variety of Ingush prose – historical legends. In the analysis of the genre features of oral folk tales about historical legends based on certain historical facts, it is demonstrated that, despite the hype and the presence of elements of exaggeration, embellishment, they are mainly dominated by the attitude of authenticity. The Ingush have a rich history and a unique colorful culture. Studying the folk traditions and history of Ingushetia is an important way to preserve the historical heritage, the ancient roots of which are associated with the Scythians and tribes of the North Caucasus. Today, the Ingush preserve their traditions and culture. Taking into account the peculiarities of the historical traditions of the Ingush people, the groups of historical legends reflecting the historical past of the people are analyzed. The study also provides a brief description of the most important texts of historical legends. The research methodology is based on textual analysis using comparative typology, comparative history and variational methods. The author's special contribution to the study of the topic is the fact that the idealization of the heroes of historical legends has undergone significant changes over time. The almost fabulous heroes were replaced by characters close to reality. There is an obvious trend in the artistic work of storytellers, who sought to depict the events of the heroic-historical plan with a focus on authenticity. In modern conditions, when the desire for the formation of culture is extremely increasing in society, the appeal to the historical memory of ancestors acquires special importance. The historical traditions of Ingushetia, written by different collectors of folklore and recorded in different eras, are valuable not only for researchers of oral creativity, but also for historians. These are stories about important events that have happened, about people with illustrated biographies or about those who played a memorable role in the fate of the people.
Fine art as a factor in the development of modern art animation in the UK
Authors: Wu Zijian
Published: January 2024

The subject of the study is the specificity of artistic and visual techniques used by the British creators of animated films, using the example of the paintings "Shaun the Sheep" and "Van Gogh. Love, Vincent." The object of research is the artistic animation of Great Britain at the beginning of the XXI century. The article reveals the trends of British animation in recent years by analyzing the elements of the visual series of cartoons created using the expressive means of classical art. The works considered in the article demonstrate the author's approaches of modern British directors in relation to the artistic and figurative solution of cartoons related to various types of fine art, for example, sculpture in plasticine animation and oil painting. The aim is to identify and characterize the visual techniques in British cartoons of the early 21st century. The research methodology presents the greatest difficulty, since it has not been fully developed in relation to the characteristics of the artistic and visual specifics of animated films, but at the same time opens up opportunities for interdisciplinary analysis. The research uses an art historical analysis, in particular a structural study of the plot and compositional features of animation. The novelty of the research is due to the fact that in Russian science the stated problem remains practically unexplored. For the first time, the paintings "Shaun the Sheep" and "Van Gogh. With love, Vincent" are considered from the point of view of means of artistic expression and in terms of meaning formation. Based on the results of the analysis, it is concluded that modern British animation proceeds by creating films in which visual arts are actively involved. This sets a high level of performance of paintings, because it requires the authors to have impeccable command of visual literacy, which allows them to achieve maximum expressiveness of images. It is likely that in the future, reliance on the artistic language of classical art and the manual labor of animators will continue to form as a specific feature of British animation.

Em contraste, os Obesos Metabolicamente Anormais englobam indivíduos com sobrepeso e síndrome metabólica, caracterizando-se por alterações em biomarcadores e um perfil metabólico adverso. A Obesidade Metabólica em Pessoas com Peso Corporal Normal desafia as expectativas, evidenciando distúrbios metabólicos em indivíduos aparentemente dentro dos limites normais de peso. E o Obeso Sarcopênico que apresenta uma interseção desafiadora entre obesidade e perda de massa muscular relacionada à idade, exigindo abordagens para preservar a função física. Considerações finais: Estratégias personalizadas são essenciais para enfrentar a diversidade de fenótipos da obesidade. O entendimento sobre os diversos subtipos é crucial para o desenvolvimento de estratégias mais eficazes na prevenção e tratamento, visando a redução de peso, promoção da saúde metabólica e qualidade de vida.
Exploring the Potential to Extend Productive Lifespan in Nondiabetics through Maintaining Optimal Insulin Sensitivity: Amelioration of an Abated Version of the Metabolic Syndrome
Authors: Preuss Harry G. , Kaats Gilbert R. , Mrvichin Nate , Aruoma Okezie I. , Bagchi Debasis , Scheckenbach Richard P.
Published: January 2024

Objectives:

An inadequate metabolic response on the part of blood glucose to the usual or even augmented circulating levels of insulin is broadly referred to as “insulin resistance” (IR). IR has been associated with developing a collection of biological perturbations recognized as metabolic syndrome, a less-than-optimal IR status with aging is prevalent worldwide in the modern nondiabetic population due mainly to current poor nutritional practices.

Material and Methods:

This phenomenon is explored using two different surrogates representing the strength of IR (serum fasting blood glucose and the ratio triglycerides/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol) as well as two different means to gage aging (chronological age and declining glomerular filtration rate over the lifespan).

Results:

Establishing an important role in general health for what seem to be trivial but persistent stages of IR in the eyes of most observers today is important since it would provide early incentives to develop safe, convenient preventive measures to slow the aging process and lengthen meaningful lifespan.

Conclusion:

Ultimately, the objective is to maintain the body in optimal shape by reducing IR throughout aging. This may help mitigate all sorts of metabolic disorders, including infectious processes occurring in one’s lifetime.

Authors: Madrigal-Cadavid Juliana , Estrada-Acevedo Jorge , Maria Jaramillo Ana , Jaramillo-Santacoloma Laura , Guarin Simon , Londoño Angela , Rojas-Gualdron Diego
Published: January 2024

Background

The Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) is a valuable tool for assessing the quality of life in adult patients with psoriasis.

Aims

To analyse the reliability and validity of the DLQI to measure the quality of life in patients with mild to moderate-severe psoriasis.

Methods

This was a secondary validation study nested in a follow-up study. The Rasch-Andrich model was utilised to perform response function, item and person fit, differential item functioning, dimensionality, and reliability analyses.

Results

A total of 1439 patients were analysed, 52.1% male, mean age of 48.7 years (SD 16.1). Psoriasis vulgaris was the phenotype in 43.1% of patients, and 86% had a mild Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI). Adequate adjustment of the response function and the items was observed in the best-fit sample, except for item 7 (work and study). The measure explained 60.9% of the variance and presented a reliability of 0.86. Differential item functioning was identified by age, with a relevant bias in the estimation for older adults. Item-person maps are provided.

Limitations

This study was performed at a single centre, with most patients presenting a mild PASI score, limiting generalisation of the findings.

Conclusion

The validity evidence favours the use of the DLQI in moderate-severe psoriasis. However, the instrument biases the estimate of older adults. This population group should consider a specific version of the instrument.

Published: January 2024

Background Problems: Recent advancements in virtual reality (VR) technology have expanded its practical application in enhancing physical activity and motor skill acquisition among children. Research Objectives: This study aims to investigate the impact of interactive virtual reality software on the motor skills of 11- to 12-year-old elementary school children. Methods: Employing a quantitative approach with quasi-experimental methods, the research was conducted on 34 students from Lontar 481 Public Elementary School in Surabaya, selected through purposive sampling. The instruments used in the physical education learning process using virtual reality media include pre-test and post-test stages, which combine understanding of motor skills, practice, and evaluation by the teacher based on the correctness, fluency, and completeness of student actions. The procedure involved the treatment of experimental group subjects using virtual reality for 40 minutes in the control group, which was carried out conventionally. It was analysed using SPSS via a t-test, and the significance level was set at P < 0.05. Findings/Results: These findings showed a significant positive impact of virtual reality technology on students' motor development and confidence in performing movements, compared to the control group who underwent traditional learning. Conclusion: Research shows that utilising virtual reality programmes increases students' confidence in learning physical activities, especially for those at lower performance levels. The novelty of this research lies in its demonstration of virtual reality's capacity to improve children's motor competence in the context of physical education. Overall, the findings of this study contribute to physical activity and motor skills regarding the use of virtual reality media for elementary school children.
Contrôles techniques des automobiles à Abidjan et manœuvres illégales
Authors: Bamba Ladji
Published: January 2024

La fraude est disséminée dans tout le corps social ivoirien et les visites techniques automobiles ne sont pas exemptées. Comment se fait-il que des engins dont la qualité technique reste à désirer se retrouvent dans le parc automobile et sur les routes abidjanaises ? Nous posons l’hypothèse que le processus d’évaluation des automobiles en Côte d’Ivoire est émaillé d'irrégularités. En effet, selon le ministère chargé du transport de 2006 à 2021, les accidents sont liés à 6% aux facteurs de mauvais états des véhicules et du réseau routier. Les études montrent que les accidents routiers créent un problème économique, des cas d'invalidités et des conséquences tragiques pour la population ivoirienne, en moyenne 600 morts et 13 000 blessés chaque année. Le ministre responsable du transport a dit en 2021 que 40 % des décès sur les routes se passent autour du district d'Abidjan. Les résultats obtenus auprès de structures privées concessionnaires, des usagers d'où est tiré l'échantillon de l’étude, montrent l'existence du phénomène à Abidjan. Sur 150 répondants, 120 ont reconnu que les visites techniques auto montrent des irrégularités dans les tests. Cependant, tout le monde s'en tire à bon compte.

Purpose: To describe a patient with primary open-angle glaucoma in whom bilateral recurrent optic disc haemorrhages disappeared permanently after trabeculectomy. Methods: A 67-old male patient was diagnosed with primary open-angle glaucoma and was followed for 10 years including best corrected visual acuity, visual field examinations, slit lamp examinations, Goldmann applanation tonometry, fundoscopy and optic disc photographs. Results: Optic disc haemorrhages were detected in 8 out of 30 preoperative visits in the right eye and in 3 out of 19 visits in the left eye. Trabeculectomy with intraoperative application of mitomycin C was performed in both eyes due to the advanced visual field loss with an inadequate intraocular pressure control despite maximum-tolerated medical therapy and because of the recurrent optic disc haemorrhages. No further optic disc haemorrhages were observed in either eye after trabeculectomy. Conclusion: Our case report demonstrates that recurrent bilateral optic disc haemorrhages can cease permanently after successful trabeculectomy.

Authors: Shailaja K , Jemimah. D Fragrance , Hillari. L.S Aritta , N Priyanka
Published: January 2024

Thalictrum punduanum Wall. is extensively dispersed in northern India and grows on damp rocky slopes among mosses. Many different diseases have been successfully treated using potent herbal remedies from the genus Thalictrum. The essential oil from the plant species was extracted using a steam distillation procedure, and the resulting oil was analyzed using GC-FID and GC/MS techniques. The chromatogram showed more than seventy peaks, however, forty-six compounds were identified, constituting 85.3% of the oil. n-Nonadecanol (21.1%), phytol (17.1%), 6R,7R bisabolene (9.1%), bifloratriene (7.6%) and 6,10,14 trimethylpentadecan-2-one (6.1%) were found to be the major constituents of the essential oil. The essential oil of T. punduanum showed the dominance of oxygenated diterpenes and nonterpenic constituents. The antibacterial activity of the oil was tested by using the standard method (disc diffusion) against seven animal and three plant pathogens. The oil exhibited good to moderate activity against a majority of the pathogens. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) was recorded at a minimum concentration of 31.25μL/mL against Xanthomonas phaseoli and Enterococcus faecalis, and the oil has good potential as an antimicrobial against these two pathogens.
Media and public policy advocacy in India
Authors: Amaresh Jha  , Debashis Chakarabarti
Published: January 2024

The intricate relationship between media and public policy advocacy in India presents a complex terrain marked by both opportunities and challenges. As media assumes a central role in shaping public discourse and influencing policy outcomes, the dynamics of this symbiotic relationship raise critical questions and concerns that necessitate careful examination. The problem lies in the potential for bias, sensationalism, and manipulation within the media landscape, which can skew the public narrative and compromise the integrity of the policy-making process. The traditional media, comprising newspapers, television, and radio, faces challenges in maintaining objectivity, often succumbing to commercial pressures or political influences. This raises questions about the reliability of information disseminated to the public and the impact on the formulation and implementation of public policies. Furthermore, the advent of digital media, with its rapid proliferation and influence, introduces a new set of challenges. The dynamics of social media platforms, in particular, have the potential to amplify certain voices while marginalizing others, leading to the creation of echo chambers, and polarized public opinions. The democratization of information through digital platforms also raises concerns about misinformation, fake news, and the unchecked spread of unverified content, further complicating the relationship between media and public policy advocacy. In light of these challenges, there is a pressing need to critically evaluate the role of media in public policy advocacy in India. This study aims at selecting and analyzing specific case studies that highlight instances where media has played a significant role in shaping public policy outcomes.
Comparative sentiment analysis of grand renaissance dam controversy in Egyptian and Ethiopian newspapers
Authors: Fedaa Mohamed
Published: January 2024

Through a 3-year period of content analysis, this study compares predominant sentiments, stakeholder portrayal, framing techniques, and prevailing tone in Egyptian ‘Ahram Online’ and ‘The Reporter’ Ethiopian newspaper coverage of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) controversy. Despite the relatively extended, ongoing nature of GERD negotiations, throughout the last 3 years, 2020 – 2023, representing the time frame of the current study, the news coverage of both the Ethiopian and Egyptian media has portrayed the sentimental pillars of controversy in a contemporary manner.The results revealed that Ahram Online, the Egyptian newspaper, predominantly conveys a positive sentiment, echoing Egypt's focus on diplomacy and negotiation to resolve the Grand Renaissance Dam dispute, fostering an optimistic and cooperative tone. Conversely, 'The Reporter,' an Ethiopian newspaper, exhibits varying sentiments over time, with positive portrayals of Ethiopia's perspective on the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) and negative sentiments concerning external actors and evolving Egypt-Ethiopia tensions.Ahram Online portrays Egypt as advocating for its water rights and comprehensive agreements, emphasizing diplomacy and casting Egypt positively. 'The Reporter' presents Ethiopia as dedicated to its development, emphasizing the GERD's importance while critically covering external stakeholders.Both newspapers employ framing techniques. Ahram Online emphasizes cooperation, regional stability, and responsible water use, framing the GERD issue positively. 'The Reporter' highlights Ethiopia's historical challenges and the urgency of the GERD project while critically framing external actors.Al-Ahram's tone remains optimistic and cooperative, emphasizing diplomatic solutions. 'The Reporter' exhibits varying tones, including optimism, urgency, skepticism, and negativity, reflecting Ethiopia's perspective and concerns about external actors and evolving tensions.
Māori Councils Act 1900: suspending floors
Authors: Isaacs Nigel
Published: January 2024

A recent review of the evolution of sub-floor moisture management (Isaacs "Evolution of Sub-Floor Moisture Management Requirements" pp. 366-394) found the first New Zealand legislative requirement for raised floors was in 1902 in by-laws made under the Māori Councils Act 1900. No similar requirements have been found in contemporaneous European building by-laws until those recommended by the Department of Public Health, Hospitals and Charitable Aid in 1912, which dealt with suspended floor durability.

Although the use of well-made, well-drained earth floors used in Māori housing in pre-European times was in some sectors of Māori society looked back on with nostalgia, the use of suspended timber floors provided a drier, if airier, and healthier option. The Young Māori Party, with the support of the government, created a model by-law with two approaches to raise sitting and/or sleeping above ground. These required either the construction of suspended floor, or the use of a couch or bedstead at least 1 ft (0.3m) above the ground. As well as the ability to fix a time limit for compliance, it also provided the ability to levy fines if the household refused or neglected to comply with the notice. There was little variation in the implementation of the model by-law in the 24 districts established under the Act over nine years (1901 to 1910), except for the raised floor requirement (and associated penalty for non-compliance) which was not implemented in seven (30%) districts. It is concluded that unlike the durability concern of European suspended floor building by-laws, the Māori District by-laws were solely concerned with improvement of the health of the occupants.

"Why Not Live There?" Two 1908 houses in Addington and Hataitai
Authors: Mulligan Amanda , Wright Gareth
Published: January 2024

In 1908 two houses were erected. They were both long and narrow. They both featured "stick" style half-timbered decoration. They both featured typical joinery of the era - double-sash windows, four-panel doors and elegantly profiled skirtings. And both were the product of speculative builders capitalising on an expanding housing market. One house was built in Hataitai, Wellington. The other was built in Addington, Christchurch. In the early twentieth century, the introduction of electric trams and an associated tunnel through Mt Victoria led to out-lying settlements like Hataitai becoming densely populated suburbs. In 1908 Addington was already an established inner suburb, but intensification was underway as remaining pockets of farmland were subdivided for housing. This paper will compare and contrast the respective careers of the developers of these two homes: J. W. Easson – an ambitious builder and joinery factory owner who oversaw the construction of 600 houses in the capital between 1905 and 1914, and Frederick Crawford, a smaller-scale speculator who built 50 houses in Christchurch in the same period.

ЕСТЕСТВЕННЫЙ УРОВЕНЬ БЕЗРАБОТИЦЫ (NAIRU) И ГИСТЕРИЗИС НА РЫНКЕ ТРУДА: МЕТОДИЧЕСКИЕ ПОДХОДЫ К ОЦЕНИВАНИЮ СБАЛАНСИРОВАННОСТИ
Authors: Гичиев Набиюла Сапиюлаевич
Published: January 2024

Цель исследования состоит в анализе методических подходов к оцениванию инфляции во взаимосвязи с естественным уровнем безработицы (NAIRU) и гистерезиса на рынке труда, находящихся в центре внимания таких экономических агентов, как производители, потребители, инвесторы, регуляторы денежно-кредитной и налогово-бюджетной политики. Исследование базируется на принципах систематичности, объективности, достоверности, репрезентативности и верифицируемости научного познания. В ходе проведенного исследования выявлена неоднородность регионального рынка труда, наличие связи между разрывом безработицы и инфляцией для Северо-Кавказского макрорегиона. Причины возникновения неоднородности NAIRU и разрыва безработицы дифференцированы. Для более полного анализа сбалансированности рынка труда в дальнейшем необходим учет влияния дополнительных категорий (трудоустройство, вакансии и др.). Выводы. Риски неустойчивого и несбалансированного роста экономики, высокой инфляции или дефляции усиливают необходимость глубокого изучения факторов и причин неблагоприятной инфляционной динамики в Северо-Кавказском макрорегионе.

Authors: Хусаинова Екатерина Александровна , Шацких Зоя Васильевна
Published: January 2024

В работе проведена оценка рисков экономической безопасности региона на примере Республики Татарстан. Проведена декомпозиция объединенных рисков экономического развития региона. В ходе подготовки статьи был использован метод экспертных оценок, статистический анализ экономических показателей. Проведена декомпозиция совокупных рисков с учетом интуитивного ранжирования рисков от рисков с более сильным воздействием к менее агрессивным рискам. В результате оценки рисков экономической безопасности были сделаны выводы о том, что величина риска не является объективной категорией и, в принципе, суммарное влияние частного риска является средним показателем. Дальнейший анализ полученных рангов рисков как частного, так и суммарного риска позволит разработать и реализовать меры со стороны региональных органов исполнительной власти для ограничения этого влияния.

В статье проанализированы результаты исследования, проводимого в Белгородской области на протяжении 2019-2022 гг., среди представителей хозяйствующих субъектов с целью определения масштабов распространения коррупционных практик во взаимодействии бизнеса с представителями органов власти. Авторами выявлена тенденция более лояльного принятия предпринимательским сообществом практики использования неформальных и скрытых платежей для достижения целей своей коммерческой организации. Желание ускорить административные процедуры, избежать проблем во взаимодействии с чиновниками выступают основными мотивами использования предпринимателями неформальных практик. При этом, зачастую выступая инициаторами "ускорения" установленных законом процедур, они склонны обвинять в распространении коррупции алчных чиновников. В результате за четыре этапа исследования существенных изменений в региональной коррупционной ситуации не зафиксировано, а снижение значений некоторых показателей распространения коррупции обусловлено скорее специфическими внешними факторами (пандемией Сovid-19, проведением Специальной военной операции), нежели внутренними (снижение административной нагрузки на бизнес, формирование нетерпимого отношения предпринимателей к коррупции и т.д.). В заключении статьи авторами предложены рекомендации, направленные на минимизацию коррупционной составляющей во взаимодействии должностных лиц органов власти и предпринимателей.

В работе исследованы возможности использования механизмов монетарной политики, которые способствуют дальнейшему развитию экономики и главным образом: стабильности макроэкономической среды, эффективности функционирования предприятий реального сектора экономики, институциональному укреплению Национального банка, повышению активности в коммерческих банках, дальнейшей универсализации и повышению самостоятельности коммерческих банков, развитию частных и малых банковских институтов, подготовке и переподготовке банковских кадров, углублению инфраструктуры финансового рынка, структурным преобразованиям экономики. Показать важнейшую роль монетарной политики в повышении конкурентоспособности банковского сектора страны. Объектом исследования является процесс институциональных мероприятий по повышению конкурентоспособности банковского сектора в современных условиях. Методологической основой исследования являются включающие процессы логического анализа и познания от сущностно-аналитического метода, создающего элементную базу теоретического знания, до системно-функционального, на основе выявления структурных и причинно-следственных связей, позволяющего обеспечить эффект системного взаимодополнения возможностей различных подходов и мероприятий. Для повышения конкурентоспособности банковской системы необходима эффективная реализация на практике системы индикативного государственного планирования, с выделением краткосрочных, среднесрочных и долгосрочных задач. Хотя Правительством приняты и принимаются комплекс программных направлений для дальнейшего углубления экономических реформ, что практически делает возможным допущение о равнозначности других параллельных реформ, по различным сценариям, но рыночные обстоятельства и быстроменяющиеся текущие условия выступают противоположно, что это говорить о плохой ситуации при подготовке и переподготовке кадров и финансовых аналитиков. Результаты исследования могут быть полезны банковским учреждениям и другим финансовым институтам, она становится возможной лишь в рамках унификации унитарной стратегии развития экономики и финансов при эффективном использовании мероприятий монетарной политики для повышения конкурентоспособности банковского сектора

Региональные программы экотуризма способны поддерживать региональные экосистемы и уровень экосистемных услуг, которые, в свою очередь, могут компенсировать негативное давление со стороны других, менее устойчивых видов экономической деятельности, в основе которых лежит использование экосистемных услуг. Стоит отметить, что ключевым элементом в стратегии устойчивого регионального экотуризма является понимание значимости региональных экосистем и генерируемых ими потоков экосистемных услуг. Программы экотуризма способствуют вовлечению местного населения в процессы сохранения природных экосистем. Экотуризм способствует развитию моделей региональной устойчивости, в основе которых лежит охрана окружающей среды местным сообществом. В данной статье автором описывается, как потенциал региональных экосистем и генерируемые ими потоки экосистемных услуг способствуют устойчивому развитию экотуризма. Ключевым элементом устойчивого экотуризма являются симбиотические отношения между природными экосистемами и туристической деятельностью. Эффективность симбиотического взаимодействия может быть усилена при включении подходов устойчивого экотуризма в стратегию регионального развития. Экотуризм и лежащие в его основе природные экосистемы и культурное наследие являются элементами региональных экосистемных кластеров. Понимание и признание значимости взаимосвязей между экосистемными услугами и устойчивым экотуризмом способствуют формированию устойчивой программы развития туризма на региональном уровне.

Threat actors, including infamous cybercrime groups and financially driven ransomware gangs, have focused on Arab countries› businesses and organizations as they grow and move toward digital transformation. In particular, ransomware is a very serious type of cyber-attack worldwide, and many organizations are severely affected by it. INTERPOL indicates that the ransomware gangs are targeting different regions such as Africa, Americas, Caribbean, Asia-Pacific, Europe, Middle East, and North Africa 1. The Center of Excellence in Cybercrime and Digital Forensics (CoECDF) at NAUSS has conducted a deep web search, collecting, analyzing, and classifying data on ransomware gangs targeting Arab countries and organizations from 2020 to 2022. We have collected the information of ransomware victims through the darknet and dark web, focusing on leaked information. This report focuses on the Arab countries, organizations, and sectors victimized by ransomware gangs and whose information has been leaked on the darknet. Moreover, it investigated ransomware gangs that carried out cyberattacks against Arab countries, and the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) they were using. The number of organizations that are attacked by ransomware gangs is increasing significantly. Some organizations pay ransom to ransomware gangs in order not to publish their information on the darknet. As a result of not paying the ransom demanded by the ransomware gangs, certain organizations and countries had their private and sensitive data leaked to the dark web. The purpose of this report is to help law enforcement agencies combat ransomware cyberattacks by providing them with insights into the evolving tactics of ransomware gangs. By understanding how these gangs operate, law enforcement agencies can better prepare to combat and respond to ransomware attacks.

Digital teaching emphasises information literacy as one of the competencies critically required in the education community. It marks the starting point of information management to acquire comprehension and achieve learning objectives, as an attempt to support individual abilities in facing any challenges. The increasing number of special needs children at inclusive schools challenges teachers to provide the best education services. Teachers are urged to learn in diverse ways to acquire skills in handling special needs children in their classrooms. This study used a mixed methods approach, using quantitative data to present participants’ demographic data and observation on literacy-numeracy skills of special needs children and qualitative data on the teachers’ information literacy for facilitating literacy-numeracy activities for special needs children in inclusive classrooms. This study purposively selected 20 Early Childhood Education teachers from five regions in Central Java who were experienced in handling inclusive classrooms. The data were collected through interviews, observations and documentation studies. Meanwhile, the data analysis interpreted all aspects that correlated to each other. The findings confirmed that teachers with information literacy on special needs children could facilitate play-based activities for literacy-numeracy skill learning. Teachers used the outcome of this information literacy to manage learning, starting from identifying the learning needs, designing learning programmes, implementing programmes, to conducting evaluations. Therefore, teachers urgently require necessary training that supports their information literacy in managing classroom learning, especially for special needs children.

Published: January 2024

The use of learning management systems (LMSs) is an outstanding research topic in technology and education. LMSs are used for fully virtual, blended, and face-to-face learning processes. There are reviews in the field on variables and models that explain LMS adoption. However, no literature reviews have been found that analyze LMSs for face-to-face educational processes. As such, the aim of this paper was to conduct a literature review that identifies the variables involved in LMS adoption and their relationships, especially in those studies where the LMS was used to support face-to-face teaching−learning processes. Another aim was to identify the models used in the literature to understand the phenomenon under study. We analyzed 50 research studies and identified approximately 295 variables and their relationships, as well as 11 models attempting to explain the phenomenon. The variables we found include user perception, quality, user skills, social influence, behavior, access, cost, attitude towards use, and intention to use. Very little research has explored the use of LMSs to support face-to-face teaching and learning processes. We therefore see an opportunity for future research in this area.

Collaboration in twice-exceptional academic program services is an important thing to pay attention to when optimising student potential. This research focuses on both school and family involvement using a qualitative approach and a case study design to describe the forms of school and family collaboration. The respondents in this research consisted of 15 teachers and 15 parents with twice-exceptional children. The data collection in this research was carried out using participatory observation techniques and semi-structured interviews. The data was analysed through data collection, data compression, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings in this study reveal that there are diverse roles held by both schools and families in relation to the testing, planning, implementing, and evaluating of twice-exceptional programs. Additionally, it highlights the significance of self-development and extra-curricular activities in maximising student potentials, alongside the importance of training both schools and families in supporting the twice-exceptional students' development. The establishment of collaboration is influenced by several supporting factors such as open communication, administrative support, and parental involvement. Meanwhile, factors that can hinder the creation of collaboration include a lack of awareness, busy parental schedules, and misunderstandings regarding the roles involved. By understanding the results of this research, schools and families can work together to support the development of twice-exceptional students more effectively by developing educational service programs that better support the potential of twice-exceptional students. It is hoped that future research will be able to better describe collaboration in academic services for twice-exceptional students for each different type of special need.
