Authors: KUDAY Deniz , ÇETİNKAYA Sevda
Published: January 2021

Günümüz eğitim ve öğretim anlayışına uygun ve bu anlayışın ihtiyaçlarını karşılayabilen, öğrencilerin zihinlerini aktif kılmalarına olanak sağlayan öğretim yaklaşımlarının kullanılması, öğrencilerin derslere olan ilgilerini ileri taşımaya yardımcı olabilir. Bu anlayışına uygun, öğrenme ortamlarının oluşturulmasında kullanılabilecek stratejilerden biri de tahmin-gözlem-açıklama stratejisidir. Özel durum çalışması yöntemiyle yapılan bu araştırmada, ortaöğretim öğrencilerinin coğrafya dersinde multimedya tabanlı TGA stratejisinin kullanımına ilişkin görüşlerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda 2016-2017 eğitim öğretim yılında; Hatay ilinde bir ortaöğretim kurumunda 9. Sınıf coğrafya dersinde Yerin Şekillenmesi ünitesi, 8 hafta boyunca multimedya tabanlı TGA stratejisine dayalı olarak işlenmiştir. Amaç doğrultusunda, uygulama sonrasında, sürece katılan 32 öğrenciye görüşme formu uygulanmıştır. Ayrıca öğrencilerden gönüllü olanlar ile TGA aşamalarına ilişkin yüz yüze görüşmeler yapılmıştır. Elde edilen veriler betimsel analiz ile çözümlenmiş, frekans ve yüzde değerleriyle tablolar halinde sunulmuştur. Multimedya tabanlı TGA ile coğrafya öğretiminin olumlu ve olumsuz yönleri öğrencilerin görüşleri doğrultusunda tartışılmıştır. Öğrencilerin TGA stratejisinin kullanımına yönelik görüşleri genellikle olumludur. Dersi zevkli ve öğrenmeyi eğlenceli hale getirdiğini, bilgiyi görselleştirdiğini, öğrenmeyi kolaylaştırdığını ve coğrafya dersini sevdirdiğini, öğrencide merak duygusu uyandırıp araştırma yapmaya teşvik ettiğini dile getirmişlerdir. Diğer üniteler için de bu stratejiyi kullanmak istediklerini de belirtmişlerdir. Bununla birlikte öğrenciler; TGA aşamalarından en çok tahmin aşamasında, daha sonra açıklama aşamasında zorlandıklarını ifade etmişlerdir. Öğrenciye, eğlenirken bilgisini sınama olanağı veren TGA stratejisi, fikir yürütmeye ve alternatif fikirler üretmeye de teşvik ettiğinden bilimsel süreç becerilerini edindirme konusunda öğretimin farklı kademelerine uygulanabilir.
BECERİ ÖĞRETİMİNDE EPİSTEMOLOJİK TEMELLERİN YERİ: COĞRAFYADA DEĞİŞİM VE SÜREKLİLİK KAVRAMI
Authors: KARAKAŞ ÖZÜR Nazan
Published: January 2021

Bu çalışmanın ana fikri, coğrafya derslerinde öğretilen becerilere kaynaklık eden kavramların önceden bilinmesi gerektiğidir. Beceriler Türkiye’de ilk defa 2005 yılında uygulamaya konulan Coğrafya Öğretim Programı’nda yer almıştır. Programda ana başlıklar halinde tanımlandığı halde bu becerilerin okullarda öğretilmesi konusunda uygulamaya dönük somut bir açımlama henüz yoktur. Çalışmada değişim ve sürekliliği algılama becerisi seçilmiştir. Önce tarihi süreçte değişim ve süreklilik kavramları nasıl anlamlandırılmıştır? sorusu üzerinde durulmuştur. İkinci aşamada uygulamaya temel oluşturacak kavramsal çerçeve belirlenmiştir. Daha sonra değişim ve süreklilik kavramlarının okul coğrafyası içeriğinde nasıl kullanıldığına cevap aranmıştır. Son olarak beceri öğretiminde epistemolojik temellerin yerini göstermek için uygulama önerisi hazırlanmıştır. Araştırma, nitel betimsel bir yaklaşımla iki aşamalı şekilde doküman incelemesi yöntemi kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Buna göre coğrafyada değişim ve süreklilik kavramları tarihi süreçte, değişim, süreklilik, mekân, zaman, hareket, etken güç (vetire), olay, olgu, sebep, sonuç, cisim, insan, canlı, cansız, akış, döngü ve sistem kavramları ile bilinmektedir. Bu kavramlar okullarda coğrafya öğretiminde olay ve olguların, coğrafi düşüncenin, yöntem ve tekniklerin öğretilmesinde kullanılabilir. Uygulama için önce beceriye konu olan kavramların öğretilmesi gereği bir kavram haritası hazırlanmıştır. Derste üzerinde çalışılması önerilen analiz tablosu örneği verilmiştir. Coğrafya derslerinde beceri öğretiminin tam anlamıyla gerçekleşmesi için öğretmenlerin bu süreci takip etmesi önerilmiştir. Önerilerin uygulanmasına dair deneysel çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
Mudharabah as a Conduit for Social Cohesion among Vulnerable Women
Authors: Morni Fareiny , Khan Azima
Published: January 2021

The focus of this research is specified to the interlinkages between three concepts i.e. social cohesion, women’s economic empowerment and mudharabah investments. Instead of microfinancing, this paper explores the possibility of utilizing mudharabah as a tool in uplifting vulnerable societies, especially women and promote social cohesion in the surrounding community. We explore the importance and value that empowering women economically can bring to improving the cohesiveness of a society and whether mudharabah can be used to achieve this. A case study method was used to highlight existing models used by NGOs to provide assistance to vulnerable women. However, existing models are found to be limited to the funds available in the organization and in turn, this restricts the aid that the NGO are able to give out. A mudharabah model would help NGOs to outsource funding to individuals and institutions who can contribute capital to women and uplift them from their current economic condition. With that this paper proposes a two-tier mudharabah structure as an alternative financing model which can be used as a conduit for circulation and distribution of wealth in a society. This structure is found to be financially viable and limits the capital providers’ losses to the amount of their contribution.
The Circular Economy of the Islamic Group Lending Model: Lending Money for Garbage in Return
Authors: Syamlan Yaser Taufik
Published: January 2021

The Model of Group Lending has been flourishing in the Microfinance Industry. This model has been used widely in the world to serve the needy and un-bankable group of people by lending money plus interest addition. In Islamic finance also embrace this model by omitting the interest and applying the Qardul Hassan to finance the members so that they can fulfill their daily need. The problem of this divine scheme is the sustainability of the microfinance since they have a burden to bare the operational cost due to the non – interest feature of the financing. This paper tries to solve this problem by utilizing the household garbage as the media to repay the Qardul Hassan  financing to the Islamic Microfinance Institution (IMFI) so that it can be processed by the IMFI to create more added value product, selling it to get more income and achieving the organization sustainability.

Published: January 2021

Проблема інновацій в освіті протягом останніх двох десятиліть залишається однією з основних для освітнього співтовариства. Інновації – багатобічне поняття, що відбиває результати творчого мислення і нестандартних рішень. Інновації у військовій справі, особливо в професійній військовій освіті, завжди оцінювалися більш пильно, ніж десь ще. Це пов’язане, насамперед, з можливими ризиками втрат бойової ефективності офіцера, високою «ціною помилки». Крім того, відмітною рисою військової педагогіки є прихильність традиціям у професійній підготовці свого суб’єкта, які, у свою чергу, перевірені самою вимогливою практикою. Водночас на підставі аналізу наукових публікацій можна дійти висновку, що питання необхідності інноваційних перетворень у військовій освіті розглянуті недостатньо та потребують подальшого дослідження. У даній статті розкриті науково-теоретичні аспекти і провідні тенденції в розвитку інноваційних процесів у системі військової освіти, виділяються два види інновацій, а саме процесно-орієнтовані (результатом є нові процеси або технології, що ведуть до виробництва нових продуктів) і продукто-орієнтовані (результатом є конкретний продукт). Позначені вимоги, які пред’являються до інновацій, фактори інноваційного розвитку системи військової освіти. Розглядаються інновації в професійній військовій освіті. У публікації говориться про виділення груп моделей оцінки освітньої діяльності з урахуванням спрямованості оцінювання і способу вираження результату, з деякою часткою узагальнення (моделі, що відображають особливості суспільно або професійно орієнтованого навчання; моделі оцінювання, які забезпечували сучасні форми навчання; накопичувальні моделі оцінювання; моделі оцінювання, побудовані на принципі порівняння навчальних досягнень курсантів, слухачів, студентів). У статті виділені області задач інноваційних систем оцінки результатів освітньої діяльності ВВНЗ та ВНП ЗВО і надано їхній опис.

A model for distribution systems performance evaluation
Authors: Lê Sang Bá , Thái Linh Ý , Phan thi Mai Ha
Published: January 2021

In today's business environment, as the competitiveness becomes increasingly fierce, improving the business performance becomes more important. A major factor affecting business operations is distribution systems performance control. In a distribution network, if an independent point well manages its performance, the efficiency of the entire enterprise will improve. In order to do this, it is essential to evaluate the effectiveness of each distribution point. However, at present, this evaluation is usually based on experience or only a few indicators such as revenue or profit. The effectiveness of a distribution point should be simultaneously considered for sales with resources used such as costs, manpower or business market characteristics such as the number of similar stores within 4 kilometers radius... Therefore, DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) method is proposed and used to evaluate the performance of independent distribution points and analyze the factors that affect efficiency by the Tobit regression model. This model was tested for a food distribution system in Ho Chi Minh City to prove its feasibility and usefulness.
Evaluation of interface toughness of bi-material Ni/Al by molecular dynamics method
Authors: The Quang Tran , Van Thanh Vuong , Van Truong Do
Published: January 2021

Bi-materials in submicron scale have been widely used in many industries, especially in the microelectronics industry. Due to the different deformation between the two material layers, damage usually occurs on the surface between the two material layers. In this paper, the Molecular dynamics (MD) method is used to investigate the mechanical properties of bi-material Ni/Al under the tensile strain. The examined Ni/Al structure has dimensions of 10.90 nm x 5.27 nm x 4.22 nm/10.93 nm x 5.26 nm x 4.21 nm, with strain rates of 1.83x108s-1, 5.48x108s-1, 1.83x109s-1 and 5.48x109s-1, respectively. The interactions between the atoms in the system are described by the EAM (Embedded Atom Method). The calculated results show that Young's modulus of bi-material Ni/Al does not change under the various strain rates, while the fracture strength of Ni/Al increases with increasing of the strain rates. In addition, the effects of load position and temperature on the fracture strength of Ni/Al are also investigated. With the strain rate of 1.83x108 s-1, the fracture strength of Ni/Al at 100oK and 700oK is 6.6 GPa and 4.3 GPa, respectively. The obtained results of the study are helpful in the design and fabrication of devices based on the bi-material Ni/Al.

Published: January 2021

Skin graft is effective method to reconstruct large lesions on the skin. Long-term injuries such as burns, skin ulcers, skin flaps, skin grafts... can affect the health of the patient. Skin plays a very important role because it protects the body from dehydration, helps regulate temperature, helps prevent pathogenic bacteria or viruses from entering the body and minimizes skin deformation. In recent years the cold plasma has been used to aid the treatment of chronic skin wounds, burns, ulcers,... To assess the effectiveness of the wound healing process of Plasma, this study uses non – invasive (assess the shrinkage of the wound, the temperature change of the wound) and invasive methods (regeneration of skin tissue structure) to evaluate the therapeutic effects of Dielectric Barrier Dissections Plasma (DBD Plasma) in skin graft surgery. Experimenting with the entire skin graft model on mice, this use of DBD Plasma treatment along with clinical evaluation methods, this is to compare wound healing time between wounds treated with plasma DBD and untreated wound. After 21 days of experimentation, evaluation methods and results processing tools, it was shown that wound healing of skin lesions on mice of the wound area treated with DBD Plasma faster than nontreatment about: (1) The surface shrinkage rate is about 25%; (2) The average wound temperature is less than 0.5-1oC; (3) Healing time is faster from 5 to 6 days. Therefore, DBD Plasma is able to be a potential treatment for wound healing combined with skin graft surgery in the future. The initial study of DBD model is the premise from which could be broader in other animals such as rabbits and pigs with skin structure closer to the human skin. And further, the DBD Plasma shows the potential for preclinical application to human skin graft.
COMPARISON OF CLUSTER ANALYSIS ALGORITHMS IN OBJECT RECOGNITION
Authors: Botvin M. , Gertsiy A.
Published: January 2021

The article is an overview of the direction of graphic image processing based on clustering algorithms. The analysis of prospects of application of algorithms of cluster analysis in digital image processing, in particular, at segmentation and compression of graphic images, and also at recognition of images in transport sphere of activity is carried out. Comparative modeling of such algorithms of cluster analysis as K-means, Mean-Shift (clustering of average shift) and DBSCAN (based on density of spatial clustering for applications with noise) on various types of data is carried out. The simulation was performed on synthetic datasets in a Jupyter Notebook environment using the Scikit-learn library. In particular, four data sets were generated in this environment, to which these clustering algorithms were applied. The simulation results showed that the K-means algorithm can effectively describe relatively simple shapes. In contrast, the mean shift does not require assumptions about the number of clusters and the shape of the distribution, but its performance depends on the choice of scale parameters. The DBSCAN algorithm can successfully detect more complex shapes, which emphasizes one of the strengths of this algorithm - the clustering of arbitrary data. The disadvantages of the selected algorithms are also given and it is indicated on which types of images they effectively work with the estimation of computational speed.

State of the Evidence for Emergency Medical Services Care of Adult Patients with Sepsis: An Analysis of Research from the Prehospital Evidence-Based Practice Program
Authors: Greene Jennifer , Goldstein Judah , Lane Daniel , Jensen Jan , Leroux Yves , Swain Janel , Fidgen Dana , Brown Ryan , Simpson Matthew , Carter Alix
Published: January 2021

Introduction

The Prehospital Evidence-Based Practice (PEP) program is an online, freely accessible, continuously updated emergency medical services evidence repository. This PEP summary describes the research evidence for the identification and management of adult patients with sepsis or septic shock.

Methods

A systematic search of the literature on sepsis or septic shock was conducted. Studies were scored by trained appraisers on a three-point level of evidence scale (based on study design and quality) and a three-point direction of evidence scale (supportive, neutral or opposing findings based on the studies’ primary outcome for each intervention).

Results

One hundred forty-three studies (80 existing and 63 new) were included for 16 interventions listed in PEP for adult patients with sepsis. The evidence matrix rank for supported interventions (n=16) were supportive-high quality (n=2, 12.5%) for crystalloid infusion and vasopressors, supportive-moderate quality (n=8, 50%) for identification tools, pre-notification, point-of-care lactate, titrated oxygen, temperature monitoring and balanced crystalloids. The benefit of pre-hospital antibiotics, colloids, Trendelenburg position and early goal-directed therapy remain inconclusive with a neutral direction of evidence. There is moderate level evidence opposing the use of high flow oxygen.

Conclusion

Several standard treatments are well supported by the evidence including fluid resuscitation, using balanced crystalloids, vasopressors and titrating oxygen. Tools for identifying and guiding treatment are also supported (eg. pre-notification, temperature monitoring and lactate). The evidence for antibiotic use is inconclusive. This PEP state of the evidence analysis can be used to guide selection of appropriate pre-hospital therapies during the development of pre-hospital protocols or clinical practice guidelines.
Shidu women—the historical, cultural, personality characteristics of their grief psychodynamic
Authors: Xiaoming Jia , Nan Yang
Published: January 2021

Shidu women are mothers who have lost their only child and no longer have the chance to have another child. Most of them, born in the 1950s and 1960s, have experienced important historical events and social changes in recent decades of China. Through the case studies of several Shidu women, it is found that their grief process after losing the only child not only displays general characteristics of grief, but also presents specific historical, cultural, and personal characteristics: they suffered individual, family, and historical trauma after experiencing major social events, at the same time gaining post-traumatic growth and resilience. They received more care from relatives after losing their only child. We found qualities of traditional Chinese women that can bear hardships, be hard-working and tolerant, and demonstrate character of self-esteem and self-reliance, feminine characteristics that are good at expressing emotion and seeking help, and the personality characteristic of altruism. We show the historical, cultural, and personal characteristics that have formed the grief psychodynamic of Shidu women.
Chinese women's autonomy: parenthood as a choice
Authors: Volsche Shelly , Jankowiak William
Published: January 2021

Numerous Chinese studies point out that Chinese youth are transforming the meaning of filial piety, China's highly esteemed moral code used to structure intergenerational relationships. We wanted to understand the extent to which college educated women are redefining what it means to be a filial woman in contemporary Chinese society. To this end, we set up a research design that probed whether men and women continue to think becoming parents is an essential attribute of life satisfaction using a pen-and-paper survey with college students in Shanghai and Hohhot, Inner Mongolia. A Principal Components Analysis (PCA) on Likert-scaled questions resulted in two factors: Customary Ideology and Autonomous Self. As anticipated, students who reported their intent to parent were more likely to agree with items in Customary Ideology, whilst students who reported not intending to have children or were uncertain were more likely to agree with items in Autonomous Self. Most telling, an overwhelming number of respondents from each university reported agreement with the statement, "Having children is a personal choice" (97.6% at Fudan University; 76.4% at Inner Mongolia University). We discuss the implications of these findings as the singleton generations renegotiate expectations of these intergenerational bonds.

Authors: Khan Farhana , Rahman Md Sayedur , Akhter Shaheen , Momen Abdul Basit Ibne , Raihan Sheikh Golam
Published: January 2021

Background: Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurobehavioral disorder for which till date, no pharmacological treatment has been proven effective. Some studies on complementary alternative medicines have shown neurobehavioral improvements among children diagnosed with ASD, notably with the administration of a combination of Vitamin B6 and Magnesium.

Methods: This trial was designed to observe the effectiveness of a combination of Vitamin B6 and Magnesium in children with ASD with hyperactivity. One of the primary aim was to investigate any improvement among the six domains of ASD: general observation, cognition, emotion, social behavior, communication, and sensory deficits. Patients attending the outpatient department of the Institute of Pediatric Neurodisorder and Autism (IPNA), Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, diagnosed as ASD, were selected for this trial on meeting the selection criteria diagnosed by DSM 5 (Diagnostic and Statistical manual of Mental disorders) and ADCL (Autism Diagnostic CheckList). Then the patients were randomly assigned into intervention group (Vitamin B6 and Magnesium) or placebo group. The intervention group received tablets of Vitamin B6 and Magnesium daily, for 3 months, where the dosage was pre-determined by age of the subjects. Patients aged 2-3 years received 50mg Magnesium and 25mg Vitamin B6 daily, aged 4-8 years received 100mg Magnesium and 50mg Vitamin B6 daily, and patients aged 9-12 years were given 200mg Magnesium and 100mg Vitamin B6 daily. The placebo group received similar looking oral placebo tablets for the duration as the intervention group. After 3 months, each patient was assessed once again using ADCL tool by a psychologist.

Results: Seventy (70) patients were enrolled for this study over a period of seven months. Among them fifty (50) met all criteria to be eligible for analysis. Therefore, intention to treat (ITT) was seventy (70) and per protocol treatment was fifty (50). Of these patients, twenty-seven (27) received Vitamin B6 and Magnesium and twenty-three (23) received placebo. The improvement observed in the proportion of patients in the intervention group (81%) was significantly (pd”0.05) higher compared to placebo (47%) group. This study revealed an overall improvement in the symptoms of autism along with improvements in specific domains e.g., Emotion (pd”0.01) and Cognition (pd” 0.05).

Conclusion: Despite the small population size, this study demonstrated neurobehavioural improvement among children with ASD with hyperactivity and irritability. Consequently, this can be expected that future studies conducted on a larger scale might help to establish the beneficial role of Vitamin B6 and Magnesium as a complementary treatment for autism with hyperactivity and irritability.
