Authors: Hernández Marisela , Terrazas Estefany , Martínez Fernando , Cornejo Raymundo , Álvarez Vania , Barraza Claudia , Gaxiola Fernando
Published: February 2021

Exergaming is considered an effective way to promote physical exercising for young children. Previous work has argued in favor of using exergaming to help with health problems such as obesity, or to contribute with brain maturation, which may affect motor and cognitive abilities. In this work, we describe the preliminary results of a study focused on observing the psychomotor factors exposed by a child with ADHD attending a public primary school. The case of study is an eleven-year-old girl who attends a public primary school but who receives academic support from special education therapists. An off-the-shelf exergame was selected based on its instructional and physical activation features, which the child played with for six weeks. The exergame meets its aim to stimulate psychomotor factors. Attention, speed of reaction, body posture, temporospatial and dissociation skills are categories used for video analysis. Preliminary results seem to indicate that the child’s interaction with the game has produced positive outcomes for reading comprehension, writing, memory, and visuomotor skills. CUMANES and MABC-2 are the batteries used for PRE and POST tests.
Estimation of cognitive stress through the use of non-intrusive methods
Authors: Nava Martha X , Castillo Víctor H , Gómez Isabel M
Published: February 2021

Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common cause of motor impairment in children and has increased globally. This health problem negatively impacts the quality of a patient's life and the people in their care. The literature reports the use of technological tools developed to support patients' rehabilitation; however, these are intrusive, so they are annoying and can generate stress. This work aims to analyze the existing developments regarding cognitive stress estimation through non-intrusive methods. This study identifies a few developments focused on rehabilitating children with CP by analyzing facial expressions with non-intrusive methods. From the above, the authors propose future lines of work that would eventually support patients with CP.

FEATURES OF GARNET AND CLINOPYROXENE IN DIAMONDIFEROUS ECLOGITES FROM THE UDACHNAYA KIMBERLITE PIPE, YAKUTIA: METASOMATOSIS EVIDENCE
Authors: Spetsius Zdzislaw , Liskovaya Ludmila , Ivanov Alexander , Bogush Irina
Published: February 2021

Mineralogy of diamondiferous eclogite xenolites showing metasomatosis evidence from the Udachnaya kimberlite pipe is discussed. The paper also reviews features of diamonds they contain, compositions of primary garnets and omphacites as well as alteration of structural and species compositions of original garnets and clinopyroxenes during metasomatosis. Based on pyrope structure update, two-phase garnet composition is suggested, which is mostly represented by complex pyrope associated with Ca-pyrope. In all samples, primary omphacite is replaced by another clinopyroxene variety depleted in Na2O, which is typical of partial melting products. Geothermometry results suggested that the eclogites formed within a temperature range of 1,000–1,2000 °C. Based on diamond morphology, data on total N content in diamonds and its aggregation, multiple stages of diamond formation in eclogites and the most probable growth of later diamond generations impacted by metasomatizing mantle fluids containing carbon are postulated. It is suggested that certain diamond formation stages probably had a time gap of several hundred million years.

Authors:   Institute of Applied Mathematics and Automation KBSC RAS, Balkizov G.A.
Published: February 2021

Within the framework of this work, solutions of boundary value problems with data on “opposite” (“parallel”) characteristics are found for one mixed-hyperbolic equation consisting of a wave operator in one part of the domain and a degenerate hyperbolic Gellerstedt operator in the other part. It is known that problems with data on opposite (parallel) characteristics for the wave equation in the characteristic quadrangle are posed incorrectly. However, as shown in this paper, the solution of similar problems for a mixed-hyperbolic equation consisting of a wave operator in one part of the domain and a degenerate hyperbolic Gellerstedt operator with an order of degeneracy in the other part of the domain, under certain conditions on the given functions, exists, is unique and is written explicitly.

Authors: Chudzaifah Ibnu , Hikmah Afroh Nailil
Published: February 2021

Character education has a higher meaning than moral education, because character education is not only related to right and wrong problems, but how to instill habits (habituation) about things that are good in life, so that students have high awareness, sensitivity, and understanding , as well as concern and commitment to apply virtue in everyday life. Thus it can be said that a person with character is a person's nature in responding to situations in a moral way, manifested in real action through good behavior, honesty, sincerity, responsibility, respect for others and other noble character values. Therefore, as a teacher, it should be able to apply character education to the learning process. In this paper, the authors offer ideas or concepts in the preparation of a comprehensive character education based learning plan (RPP).

DESIGUALDADES DE GÊNERO E FORMAÇÃO DO ASSISTENTE SOCIAL
Authors: Mirales Rosana
Published: February 2021

O debate sobre gênero no Brasil se incorporou às áreas de conhecimento a partir do final da década de 1980 e mais firmemente na década de 1990. O debate sobre o tema cresceu em profundidade, passando, paralelo à noção de patriarcado, a explicar os processos de dominação-exploração aos quais as mulheres estão submetidas. Gênero é um elemento constitutivo das relações sociais, ligado a fatores políticos e econômicos, adquirindo contornos históricos e sociais específicos em cada sociedade. Nesse sentido, pensar gênero significa verificar processos de dominação-exploração, dos quais não se separam raça/etnia e classes sociais. Está presente nas diferentes dimensões do exercício do assistente social, categoria profissional constituída em maioria de mulheres. Além disso, as políticas sociais, um dos campos de ação destes profissionais tem como usuárias preferenciais mulheres. Genericamente pode se dizer que a proposta de formação do assistente social agrega as dimensões do conhecimento – ensino, pesquisa e extensão, e tem a sua organização proposta em três núcleos centrais: Teórico-metodológicos da vida social; Formação sócio-histórica da sociedade brasileira e o Trabalho profissional. Entende-se que a incorporação dos conteúdos relacionados a gênero deve perpassar estes três núcleos explícitos nas diretrizes curriculares, gerando competências, que sejam capazes de responder às demandas profissionais e contribuir com a ampliação do debate.
OS VÁRIOS SENTIDOS PRESENTES NO HINO DA CIDADE DE FOZ DO IGUAÇU-PR
Authors: Guareschi Ykegaya Tupiara
Published: February 2021

É a partir da perspectiva da Análise do Discurso (AD) francesa que se propõe uma análise do hino do município de Foz do Iguaçu-PR, percebendo a construção de determinados sentidos em consonância com certas ideologias. Tendo como referencial a AD francesa, tenta-se estabelecer o campo do discurso: ele é acontecimento; o discurso não é resultado de uma soma de elementos combinados segundo certas regras estruturais, mas um fenômeno de emergência que se materializa na instância de enunciação, cuja expressão unitária é o enunciado. O discurso é, antes de tudo, produtor de sentidos, eis sua função. O hino, enquanto discurso, carrega o sentido produzido pela ideologia da sociedade moderna ocidental em prol do estado, enquanto veículo de unicidade, de racionalidade e progresso. O hino passa a ser uma narrativa da nação, por isso, identifica-se no seu propósito, a mesma intenção de unificação, de significação e legitimação do passado e do presente. O hino, dimensão menor, está se referindo a uma cidade com características específicas, contudo, obedece a mesma lógica.
A INTEGRAÇAO SOCIAL NA TEORIA SOCIOLÓGICA PARSONIANA
Authors: Favero Celso Antonio
Published: February 2021

Neste trabalho desenha-se os contornos da teoria parsoniana da integração social,com o objetivo de mostrar como ela continua presente nas abordagens hegemônicas da integração econômica ou da integração dos mercados. Durante os anos 1940-1970, ela tornou-se uma espécie de paradigma incontornável para os que pretendiam formular teorias da integração social ou econômica no interior do multilateralismo, que consistia, essencialmente, numa integração social subordinada ao crescimento econômico. Nas décadas seguintes, o modelo foi intensamente bombardeado em virtude, principalmente, de transformar o conflito social numa espécie de anomalia. Com a difusão do neoliberalismo, o modelo parsoniano é novamente recuperado, muitas vezes de formas não explícitas, no contexto de algumas das abordagens sistêmicas de caráter funcionalista e, particularmente, com o objetivo de dar sustentação às teorias da integração dos mercados. No texto a seguir faz-se uma revisão histórico-teórica do pensamento de Parsons, tecendo-se alguns questionamentos. Inicialmente, é apresentada a sua teoria da ação; transita-se para a teoria do sistema; e finalmente apresenta-se algumas das dimensões consideradas básicas da teoria do sistema, ou seja, suas perspectivas normativa, evolutiva e a da recusa em considerar a desigualdade, a diferença e a exclusão como dimensões inerentes ao próprio sistema capitalista. Aponta-se, ainda, para o crescimento da tendência, atualmente, em retomar a tese hegemônica dos anos 1940-1970, que transforma a integração social em mera decorrência da integração econômica.
EDUCAÇÃO, ÉTICA E CIDADANIA: REFERENCIAIS PARA AS ESCOLAS DA REDE SINODAL DE EDUCAÇÃO
Authors: Ahlert Alvori
Published: February 2021

Esta tese estudou as concepções de educação, ética e cidadania como referenciais para a Rede Sinodal de Educação. Parte-se da análise desses conceitos no contexto da Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional, Lei Federal n. 9.394/96 que, apesar de representar a hegemonia do movimento neoliberal daquele período, possibilitou a construção de uma concepção emancipadora e libertadora de educação intercruzada com a ética e a cidadania. Para a Rede Sinodal de Educação, esta possibilidade passa pela compreensão de que a escola comunitária confessional luterana é uma escola pública não-estatal. E, ao assumir esta condição, ela pode reencontrar em Lutero e Comenius a concepção de uma educação emancipadora da pessoa humana fundada na ética e na cidadania; concepções e princípios que perpassaram os séculos e estiveram presentes na história das escolas comunitárias confessionais luteranas aqui erguidas pelos imigrantes alemães. Entretanto, o afastamento entre igreja e comunidades mantenedoras e as escolas comunitárias levou essas escolas a uma crise de identidade, de ética e de cidadania, sofrendo, assim, um processo de privatização empreendida pelas elites do seu entorno social. nas décadas de 1980 e 1990. Neste sentido, a presente tese defende que o resgate da legitimidade das escolas comunitárias filiadas à Igreja Evangélica de Confissão Luterana no Brasil - IECLB passa pela ressignificação da concepção de educação emancipadora, adotando uma gestão administrativa e pedagógica democrática e participativa. Trata-se de uma ressignificação do ensino e da aprendizagem imbricada com o cotidiano da vida e uma avaliação humana que permite a autonomia do educando a partir dos princípios de uma política educacional da IECLB construída coletivamente, sustentada em princípios educacionais emancipadores e em princípios de uma concepção de ética e de cidadania gestados na história da cultura protestante com Martin Lutero e John Amos Comenius como expoentes da reforma luterana e da construção de um projeto pedagógico humanista, respectivamente, em consonância com os valores da pessoa humana, desenvolvidos desde o comunitarismo cristão; e hoje presentes e atualizados, de forma diferente, em pensadores humanistas como Paulo Freire e Jürgen Habermas
COVID-19 e modelos de gestão nas micro e pequenas empresas: qual a melhor saída?
Authors: Nascimento Ana Caroline , Do Prado Nágela Bianca , Da Cunha Christiano França
Published: February 2021

O cenário de pandemia provocado pela Covid-19 gerou impactos negativos em diversos países, sendo um dos maiores desastres dos últimos anos, não estando apenas relacionado com os sistemas de saúde, mas também com a economia. Com isso, as empresas brasileiras foram negativamente atingidas, principalmente as micro e pequenas que possuem grande representatividade no PIB do país e não possuem, em sua maioria, modelos de gestão e programas de gerenciamento de crises estruturados. Diante deste contexto, o presente ensaio teve como objetivo promover uma discussão sobre como os modelos de gestão melhor estruturados influenciam a passagem e a sobrevivência dessa categoria de empresas em momentos de crise e, assim, discorrer sobre a forma em que micros e pequenos empreendimentos poderiam reagir diante da crise provocada pelo Coronavírus. Após um processo composto por buscas de respaldos teóricos já consolidados, reflexões promoveram evidências de que uma possível “saída” para os micros e pequenos empreendimentos é a flexibilização nas tomadas de decisão, as quais deveriam focalizar na compreensão das necessidades dos clientes e em uma maior adesão à tecnologia. ABSTRACTThe pandemic scenario caused by Covid-19 has generated negative impacts in several countries, being one of the biggest disasters in recent years, not only related to health systems, but also to the economy. As a result, Brazilian companies were negatively affected, especially micro and small companies that have a large share of the country's GDP and do not have, usually, structured management models and crisis management programs. In this context, the present essay aimed to promote a discussion on how best structured management models influence the transition and survival of this company’s category in crisis times and, thus, discuss the way in which micro and small enterprises could react to the crisis caused by Coronavirus. After a process composed of searches for consolidated theoretical support, reflections promoted evidence that a possible “way out” for micro and small enterprises is flexibility in their decision making, which should focus on understanding the customers’ needs and on a greater adherence to technology.

Authors: Brzegowy Paweł , Polak Jakub , Wnuk Jakub , Łasocha Bartłomiej , Kwinta Borys , Urbanik Andrzej , Popiela Tadeusz J.
Published: February 2021

Introduction

The middle cerebral artery (MCA) is the second most common location of intracerebral aneurysms. Traditionally, they are treated by microsurgical clipping, but with the development of new techniques and devices endovascular embolisation is gaining more importance. The aim of this study was to summarise six years of experience of our department in endovascular treatment of MCA aneurysms.

Material and methods

Forty patients with 41 MCA aneurysms treated in a single centre were included in this study. Data on patients’ comorbidities, aneurysm morphology, and treatment course were collected, with special emphasis on complications.

Results

There were no statistically significant differences in terms of aneurysm morphology between males and females and between ruptured and unruptured aneurysms. None of the diseases analysed in the current study were linked with significantly increased risk of SAH. Unruptured aneurysms were significantly more frequently treated by stent-assisted coiling (30.4% vs. 5.6%, p = 0.0388) than were ruptured aneurysms, while ruptured aneurysms were treated more frequently by coiling alone (77.8% vs. 34.8%, p = 0.0062). After an initial course of treatment 63.4% (n = 26) of patients had class I in Raymond-Roy occlusion classification, 22% (n = 9) had class II, and 14.6% (n = 6) had class III. Complications of the procedure were observed in 17.5% (n = 7) of patients: 22.2% (n = 4) with ruptured and 13.6% (n = 3) with unruptured aneurysms.

Conclusions

Endovascular treatment of MCA aneurysms is feasible, and our results are convergent with other studies. Ruptured MCA aneurysms may be treated endovascularly with similar effects as unruptured MCA aneurysms. The complication rate of such treatment is low.
Social Engineering Infosec Policies (SE-IPS)
Authors: Alharthi Dalal , Regan Amelia
Published: February 2021

The sudden increase in employees working primarily or even exclusively at home has generated unique societal and economic circumstances which makes the protection of information assets a major problem for organizations. The application of security policies is essential for mitigating the risk of social engineering attacks. However, incorporating and enforcing successful security policies in an organization is not a straightforward task. To that end, this paper develops a model of Social Engineering InfoSec Policies (SE-IPs) and investigates the incorporation of those SE-IPs in organizations. This paper proposes a customizable model of SE-IPs that can be adopted by a wide variety of organizations. The authors designed and distributed a survey to measure the incorporation level of formal SE-IPs in organizations. After collecting and analyzing the data which included over fifteen hundred responses, the authors found that on average, organizations incorporated just over fifty percent of the identified formal Social Engineering InfoSec Policies.

Authors: Leung John Kalung , Griva Igor , G. Kennedy William
Published: February 2021

This paper utilizes an ingenious text-based affective aware pseudo association method (AAPAM) to link disjoint pseudo users and items across different information domains and leverage them to make cross-domain content-based and collaborative filtering recommendations. This paper demonstrates that the AAPAM method could seamlessly join different information domain datasets to act as one without any additional cross-domain information retrieval protocols. Besides making cross-domain recommendations, the benefit of joining datasets from different information domains through AAPAM is that it eradicates cold start issues while making serendipitous recommendations.

Published: February 2021

The data economy is predicted to boom and become a 156B dollars business by 2025. In this demo we introduce the use of distributed ledger technologies (DLT) applied to digital surveys in order to create an ecosystem where data becomes a central piece of a complex economy. Our system allows for interesting key features; ownership, traceability, secure profiles, and anonymity where required. Also, the most important feature, is the incentive mechanism that rewards all participants, both users creating surveys and those answering the surveys. DSurvey (decentralized survey) is a novel application framework that aims at moving away from the large commercial data sink paradigm whose business is restricted to gathering data and reselling it. Our solution makes so that no central data sink exists, and it always belongs to the creator, who are able to know who is using it, and receive royalties.

The future of healthy and prosperous Nepal lies in Ayurved rather than Allopathy. Most of the allopathy drugs in Nepal are imported foreign drugs that not only take away our currency but even leave numerous side-effects to patients in the name of curing one particular illness. It is a truthAllopathy is more effective in emergency medical condition for speedy cure. But, the value of ayurveda in preventing people from getting sick is incomparable. By applying the principles of ayurveda in our way of living and by introducing standard ayurveda practices as school level education curriculum of Nepal, we can create healthier Nepal, prosperous Nepal, and selfdependent Nepal. Medicinal values inherent in herbs and raw materials that nature has gifted to us, that grow densly in our garden, jungles, heavenly soil needs to be massively marketed in domestic and international pharmaceutical industry. Herbs and raw materials that we are supplying since long to world cheaply are coming back to Nepal as expensive tablets and packets. Our Health system though recognizes ayurveda, unani and allopathy as three medical systems, government's over attention to allopathy and neglect to ayurveda has brought smile into the faces of medical mafia who want to extend their allopathy market by using all means for commercial motive. Though Ayurveda medicine takes longer time to cure illness and restore health in comparison with allopathic medicine, ayurveda, if made our way of life and art of living, our families, societies and nations will get much healthier. Ayurvedic mode of health care and treatment modality has to be generalized and allopathy is to be limited only in exceptional situation where allopathy is inevitable for restoration of health loss.

Published: February 2021

Sustainable Development Goal 16 stresses the importance of access to information. It is clearly emphasised in target 16.10 —“to ensure public access to information and protect fundamental freedoms, in accordance with national legislation and international agreements”. With social media becoming the default communication platforms, the questions of the extent to which their content moderating models are conducive to the implementation of public access to information and fundamental freedoms are becoming increasingly important. Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr as well as Twitter and other social media platforms have been recently criticised for censorship of user-generated content. This article looks at the controversy surrounding these policies from the property rights perspective —focusing on the role which property rights play in securing the freedom of expression. By recognising the owners’ right to control the legitimately owned property, I conclude that social media are not engaged in “censorship” —they merely exercise property rights. There is a difference between a private platform refusing to carry someone’s ideas on their property and a government prohibiting from speaking on a legitimately owned property.

Kontestasi Loyalis, Kritikus dan Orientalis Tentang Wahhabisme
Authors: Samsul Fata Badrus
Published: February 2021

Abstrak
Sejak kemunculannya, Wahhabisme telah menjadi sasaran kontestasi antara loyalis dan kritikus. Para loyalis telah menggambarkan Wahhabisme sebagai gerakan puritan, revivalis, modern dan bahkan gerakan reformasi teologis Islam. Di sisi lain, para kritikus telah memposisikan Wahhabisme sebagai teologi sesat (bid'ah), ideologi dan gerakan subversif dan menyesatkan, menyimpang dari jalan salaf al-s{a>lih}. Apa yang masih hilang dalam potret ini adalah wacana orientalis tentang Wahhabisme. Dengan menggunakan teori postkolonial yang tersedia saat ini, makalah ini membahas wacana orientalis tentang Wahhabisme dan mengkaji bagaimana mereka telah membentuk studi Islam dalam lingkungan akademik kontemporer.
 
Abstract
Since its emergence, Wahhabism has been subject to contestation between loyalists and critics. The loyalists have been portraying Wahhabism as a puritan, revivalist, modern and even an Islamic theological reform movement. On the other hand, the critics have been positioning Wahhabism as a heretical theology (bid‘ah), a subversive and misleading ideology and movement, deviating from the pious paths of most forefathers (salaf al-s{a>lih}). What is still missing in the picture is the orientalist discourses on Wahhabism. Using the currently available postcolonial theories, this paper will discuss the orientalist discourses on Wahhabism and examine how they has been shaped Islamic studies in the contemporary academic milieu.‎
