Published: December 2024

The global energy crisis has affected energy markets and policies around the world. In addition, the issue of global warming requires the world to switch to clean energy sources. The Indonesian government has committed to switching from fossil energy subsidies to renewable energy to achieve Net Zero Emissions (NZE) by 2060 or sooner. The National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN) established the Energy and Manufacturing Research Organization (OREM) to support the NZE program. One of OREM's initiatives is the Call For Joint Collaboration (CFJC) which provides an opportunity for researchers to propose research proposals in various energy fields. However, the assessment of the CFJC proposal has not used scientific methods or criteria so that the results of the proposal evaluation are not optimal yet. Therefore, this study proposes optimization of evaluation criteria using the Patton-Sawicki Framework to determine the qualified proposal to be accepted.  The research uses a qualitative approach method using CFJC proposal data on OREM in 2023. The results show that the proposed method is able to improve the quality of the proposal evaluation process by only accepting proposals that meet the requirements to support the development of NRE sector in Indonesia.

Examining Demographic, Social-Emotional, and Educational Factors Influencing Teaching Motivation among Arab Teachers in Regular and Special Education
Authors: Zubeidat Ihab
Published: December 2024

In recent years, research has increasingly emphasized the emotional, social, and educational aspects of teacher training and professional practices in both regular and special education systems. This study aims to: (a) investigate differences in teaching motivation, socio-emotional learning, perceived social and family support, mental well-being, resilience resources, and situational anxiety across demographic variables (specifically gender, age, academic qualifications, and type of education system) among Arab teachers in northern Israel; and (b) assess the extent to which these socio-emotional and educational factors explain the variance in teaching motivation among these teachers. To achieve these objectives, teachers from both regular and special education settings were asked to provide demographic information and complete self-report measures targeting the specified factors. The results revealed significant differences in socio-emotional and educational factors across the demographic variables of gender, age, academic qualifications, and type of education system (regular or special education). Notably, a significant negative relationship was observed between teaching motivation and situational anxiety, while positive relationships were found between teaching motivation and perceived social and family support, mental well-being, socio-emotional learning, and resilience resources. Moreover, multiple linear regression analysis identified socio-emotional learning, mental well-being, and resilience resources as significant predictors of teaching motivation, accounting for approximately 35.3% of the variance. This study highlights the critical role of socio-emotional factors in shaping teaching motivation, particularly among Arab teachers in northern Israel. Understanding these dynamics can inform targeted interventions and support systems, ultimately enhancing teacher effectiveness and improving student outcomes in both regular and special education settings.

Waste management at the community level is a crucial aspect linked to addressing waste issues at various levels—locally, provincially, nationally, and globally. However, effective implementation requires collaboration from various sectors within and outside the community. Collaborative efforts are essential to achieve maximum efficiency. The concept of co-production of public services is an idea that can be successfully applied to waste management. Lesson Learned from award-winning communities in waste management recognized by government agencies overseeing environmental issues, it is evident that the transformation of waste problems in communities is achievable, leading towards the goal of Zero Waste. These communities have successfully turned waste issues into opportunities for learning through community-based learning centers. In these award-winning communities, waste problems have been transformed into valuable lessons by establishing community-based learning centers that utilize the entire community as a learning hub for waste management. These community-based learning centers, totaling nine in number, each create unique lessons in waste management. They serve as community-based learning hubs, providing adaptable solutions that can be effectively applied to various areas. Each learning center contributes to the overall waste management goal but tailors its lessons to suit the specific needs of its community. This adaptability ensures that the lessons learned can be successfully implemented across different regions. The success of these community-based learning centers highlights the potential for a broader application of these waste management strategies, fostering sustainable practices and contributing to the global effort to address waste-related challenges.

Revealing lexical means of expressiveness in mass media discourse
Authors: Navalna Maryna , Zlenko Alla , Kaluzhynska Yuliia
Published: December 2024

The study is relevant due to the dynamic lexical processes taking place in the contemporary Ukrainian media discourse. Among the main reasons for such changes are extra-linguistic factors, in particular the Russian-Ukrainian war (2022-2024), which has become not only a broad topic in the Ukrainian information space, but also a reason for a wide expressive evaluation in texts. The article purpose was to identify and analyse the most frequent new manifestations of lexical expressive means in the language of mass communication during the Russian-Ukrainian war (2022-2024). The research applied the following scientific methods, such as the method of comprehensive analysis, which allowed to analyse lexical units; descriptive analysis, which allowed to differentiate and classify lexemes; the method of component analysis, which was used to differentiate the semantic features of lexical units; the method of contextual semantic analysis, which was used to study vocabulary with a focus on the intra-textual environment; the method of quantitative calculations, which was used to determine the trends in the use of language units in texts and headlines of information platforms. It has been found that among the most frequently used expressions are nominalisations for famous persons, Russian politicians in particular, who are not only called expressive lexemes, but also often have invective characteristics. The words with figurative meanings are distinguished by their expressive colouring, among which verbs forming secondary nominations are the most common. It has been proved that the number of colloquial units that act as expressions has increased in the media texts. The mass media discourse of the period 2022-2024 is characterised by the topic of the Russian-Ukrainian war, which has been replaced by other topics (social, economic, etc.). The results of the study could be used to compile dictionaries on media stylistics, and the corpus of collected material could be used in practical classes in journalism courses

INTRODUÇÃO: O preparo intestinal para cirurgia colorretal eletiva tem sido uma prática comum e amplamente aceita há mais de 100 anos, com o objetivo de prevenir complicações pós-operatórias relacionadas à contaminação fecal. OBJETIVO: Analisar a eficácia e a segurança do preparo intestinal em cirurgias colorretais, avaliando seu impacto na prevenção de complicações pós-operatórias, como infecções do sítio cirúrgico e fístulas de anastomose, além de explorar as evidências atuais que sustentam a prática do preparo intestinal em comparação com abordagens alternativas. MATERIAL E MÉTODOS: Esta revisão sistemática de literatura avaliou estudos sobre preparo intestinal para cirurgia colorretal, identificando tendências, lacunas e perspectivas futuras. Realizada entre 2015 e 2024, abrangeu 52 artigos, selecionando 15 estudos relevantes em português, inglês e espanhol. RESULTADOS E DISCUSSÃO: A revisão sistemática sobre as práticas de preparação intestinal para cirurgia colorretal revelou várias descobertas significativas. Desde 2009, foram publicados dez ensaios clínicos randomizados e 11 meta-análises que avaliam as estratégias de preparação intestinal. As meta-análises indicam que a preparação mecânica do intestino (PMI) não apresenta benefícios claros em cirurgias colorretais, embora alguns estudos sugiram possíveis vantagens em subgrupos específicos, como na cirurgia retal. CONCLUSÃO: Esse estudo evidenciou a importância crucial do preparo cirúrgico intestinal na cirurgia colorretal para minimizar complicações pós-operatórias e infecções. A análise de estudos demonstrou que o preparo intestinal mecânico combinado com antibióticos reduz significativamente as taxas de complicações e infecções. Além disso, a padronização de protocolos é fundamental para otimizar a eficácia do preparo cirúrgico.

CORPOS SUSTENTÁVEIS VERSUS EDUCAÇÃO INSUSTENTÁVEL: O MEIO AMBIENTE EM FOCO
Authors: Silva Raisinery Macêdo da , Silva Misleny Araújo da
Published: December 2024

This article aims to show how art education moves the sustainable discourse of the Bosque school and combats, with the school curriculum, the cruel exploitation of natural resources through bodies/students who talk about environmental education on Caratateua Island, using the perspective post-structuralist and studies on performativity, which allows us to problematize this body that dances and talks about art in education. Its methodological approach is close to qualitative research with ethnographic characteristics that involve the researcher's direct contact in the researched environment, participant observation and interaction with the participating subjects, male and female students, photographic records and systematization of research results. In this process, we intend to investigate how art education, mobilized by artistic language, contradicts the devastating awareness of the environment. Here we look at the relationship between the FUNBOSQUE curriculum and art education throughout the 12 hectares of native forest that make up the natural setting of Escola Bosque on Caratateua Island, which intensifies the perspective of a curriculum in its artistic, educational, cultural, performative, sustainable aspect, intertwined by the movements of bodies/students who dance and talk about environmental awareness through art with a view to everyone's quality of life.
Between Myth and Reality: Examining Mosuo Society’s Portrayal in Digital Spaces
Authors: Wang Rui
Published: December 2024

Lugu Lake in Yunnan, China, celebrated for its breathtaking beauty, has been a soughtafter destination for tourists for many years. This influx of visitors has brought significant attention to the local inhabitants, who have a unique matrilineal culture. The Moso Museum, a private institution founded by two Mosuo village leaders, has played a pivotal role in promoting this culture to a wider audience. The museum primarily promotes itself on RED, a platform popular among young women in first and second-tier cities. Although the museum seems to offer valuable insights into Mosuo culture, there’s an underlying question of whether it represents this culture holistically. It frequently highlights the term “母系” (matrilineal) in its posts, and this situation also exposes the illusion of a matriarchal utopia and feminist haven crafted to attract tourists. This paper employs content analysis to examine posts about Mosuo on RED, primarily focusing on the account “摩梭人博物馆 (The Mosuo Museum)”. The museum aims to educate visitors about the true nature of Mosuo culture. Despite its growing recognition, it is notable that the museum’s leadership and principal staff, including the curators, the secretary, and the guides, are predominantly male. Women at the museum typically hold roles such as housekeepers, volunteers, and social media operation team members. This raises another question: Has the Mosuo truly achieved “gender equality” as they claim, and how are women represented in their society?

Authors: Villaça Sérgio Paulo Vieira
Published: December 2024

Este artigo tem como objetivo apresentar algumas considerações sobre um tema que definitivamente entra no rol de preocupações do gestor público – o controle de custos. Apesar de exigido em vários dispositivos legais, o controle de custos tem sido outra boa intenção que não “pesa” na Administração Pública. Entretanto, acompanhando a grande mudança que envolve a Contabilidade Pública, que amplia o foco dos registros contábeis, tratando agora da questão patrimonial com a mesma importância que a questão orçamentária foi contemplada até hoje, o controle de custos se incorpora ao rol dos instrumentos que obrigatoriamente o gestor responsável deve utilizar, sem esquecer que a norma recém-editada torna seu uso obrigatório. É com o foco na boa gestão que esse artigo relaciona o cumprimento do princípio constitucional da eficiência com a necessidade de se dispor de um bem estruturado e ativo sistema de custos.

The use of Kolb’s lenses to explore Social Sciences curriculum implementation in South African schools: teachers’ perspective on pedagogy and content.
Authors: Molapo Karabo , Malatji Khashane Stephen
Published: December 2024

The social science curriculum serves as a key foundational subject to prepare learners who intend to further their studies by having History and Geography as specialized subjects. The success of the subject curriculum depends on the accomplishment and applicability of the subject policy objectives. However, despite the need to make the teaching and learning of the social science curriculum relevant, pedagogy and practice remain a challenge to meet the skills and values of the curriculum. Hence, this study explored teacher’s experiences of the Social Sciences curriculum in South African teaching and learning through Kolb’s experiential learning. Through Kolb’s experiential theory, the proponent emphasizes stages that need to be followed for content and pedagogic aspects of the subject. A qualitative approach with a case study design was adopted. Interpretive paradigm was used to look at teachers’ experience in the Social Science curriculum. Data was collected through individual semi-structured interviews with thirteen teachers. A thematic approach was used for data analysis. The findings of the study revealed that teachers lack pedagogies competencies for delivering Social Sciences teaching. The study concluded that teachers need to have knowledge and understanding of Social Sciences content to execute their key responsibility (teaching). Proper pedagogies such as small groups, discussion, and problem-solving should be incorporated into the subject to enable all learners within a band to understand the content taught. The study recommends Kolb’s stages of experiential learning be adopted to expose teachers to diverse ways that learners learn when executing a Social Science curriculum/lesson.
Pityriasis Rubra in a Pediatric Patient: About A Case
Authors:   General Physician, Universidad Libre de Barranquilla, Colombia, Cordero Lugo Estefanía
Published: December 2024

Pityriasis rubra is a rare erythematous squamous dermatosis of
unknown etiology produced by an alteration in the keratinization
of the epidermis. It presents a bimodal distribution with a higher
incidence in the first and sixth decades of life and a heterogeneous
clinical presentation classified into 6 subtypes according to Griffiths,
depending on the prognosis. His main findings are follicular
hyperkeratotic papules, palmoplantar keratoderma, and red-orange
erythematous plaques that can progress to erythroderma, with
islands of healthy skin. The histology is not specific but supports the
diagnosis. The importance of identifying which subtype our patient
presents is due to the fact that there are multiple therapeutic options
depending on the extent and severity of the condition.

An Interprofessional Interpretation of Ontario’s CPSO End-of-Life Policy
Authors: Sklar Michael C. , Walker Quinn , Lewis Ellen , Born Karen , Sas Courtney
Published: December 2024

In the acute care setting, we often ask families to make challenging decisions regarding their loved ones’ preferences and choices for end-of-life care when these individuals can no longer make those decisions themselves. This already stressful situation can be exacerbated by medical jargon and conflicting messaging from various well-meaning health care practitioners. Some of this ambiguity likely stems from medical providers’ lack of familiarity with end-of-life policies and their obligations as providers. Further, there can be discomfort for many families and clinicians about speaking about end of life, alongside varying cultural norms and expectations around death and dying. In this analysis, we aim to outline fundamental concepts and misconceptions surrounding cardiopulmonary resuscitation, the administration and withdrawal of life-sustaining therapies, and the framework provided by regulatory bodies for medical professionals to approach these situations. As legal and ethical principles may vary nationally between jurisdictions, our discussion will be based on Ontario policy and law. However, we believe that a similar approach would help hospitals and health care bodies provide clarity to clinicians, patients and families alike, and could be easily adapted into medical education materials.

Firm size as a moderator of stakeholder pressure and circular economy practices: Implications for economic and sustainability performance in SMEs
Authors:   PhD Candidate, School of Business and Governance, Tallinn University of Technology, Ehitajate tee 5, Tallinn 19086, Estonia, tarlan.ahmadov@taltech.ee & Visiting Researcher at RISE, Research Institute of Sweden, Gothenburg, Sweden, Ahmadov Tarlan
Published: December 2024

PURPOSE: This study examines the interplay between stakeholder pressure (internal and external), circular economy (CE) practices, firm size, and their impact on the sustainability and economic performance of Small and Medium sized Enterprises. This research underscores firm size as a key moderator in the relationship between stakeholder pressures and CE adoption, aiming to provide a comprehensive understanding of this dynamic in SMEs. METHODOLOGY: Based on a cross-sectional survey of 124 SMEs in Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, with respondents primarily being owners and managers of firms, a three-step approach tested the proposed model for CE practices. First, Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was used to ensure that the observed variables represented latent constructs. Second, Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) and Weighted Least Squares (WLS) regression methods were used to control for factors influencing CE adoption. Finally, the interaction terms assessed the moderating role of firm size. FINDINGS: The research shows that firm size moderates these effects, with external stakeholder pressure significantly influencing CE adoption more than internal pressure. These finding underscores how firm size shapes SMEs’ responses to stakeholder pressure when adopting CE practices. IMPLICATIONS: This study provides empirical evidence that stakeholder pressure significantly influences SMEs in the Baltic States to adopt CE practices, thus impacting economic and sustainability performance. Smaller firms can enhance CE practices by strategically managing stakeholders, whereas larger SMEs should align with external stakeholder expectations for more effective CE initiatives, leading to improved organizational performance. ORIGINALITY AND VALUE: This study demonstrates how stakeholder pressures drive CE practices and impact organizational sustainability and economic performance. Firm size plays a crucial role as a moderator amplifying the influence of external stakeholder pressure on CE practices.

Published: December 2024

In this research, we provide certain novel requirements for the existence and uniqueness of fuzzy solutions for a type of non-linear intuitionistic fuzzy fractional equations with intuitionistic fuzzy initial conditions under the intuitionistic fuzzy fractional derivative of order $n \in (0,3)$ in Caputo sense. The required findings are demonstrated by employing the Banach fixed point theorem, the intuitionistic fuzzy Laplace transform and the Mittag-Leffler function. An example is provided to demonstrate the reliability of our findings.
A Review of Aquaponics: Concept, Current Situation and Development
Authors: Wang Yongpeng , Yang Yi , Lu Jigang
Published: December 2024

In the face of global warming, environmental pollution, population growth, and the degradation of biodiversity and natural resources, sustainable farming practices have become crucial and should be explored and implemented. Aquaponics is an agricultural system that integrates aquaculture and hydroponics in the application of sustainable farming technologies. The nitrogen-rich biomass produced by aquatic life is used to feed crops, while the feeding process also acts as a natural filtering system that maintains the habitat of aquatic life. This article divides the development history of aquaponics into three stages: the origin stage (before the 1960s), the initial stage (1960s), and the development stage (after the 2010s). Five typical aquaponic models are compared and analyzed. This work suggests that the basic theory of the aquaponic system should be studied thoroughly, and the intelligent and industrial development trends of the system should be explored. These studies can provide sufficient evidence and concrete references for large-scale applications of aquaponics.
Copper bioavailability and phytotoxicity in Chilean agricultural soils: implications for sustainable fruit production

Published: December 2024

Central Chile's lowland valleys constitute a major fruit-producing region, but they face soil copper (Cu) contamination originating from Cu mining in the nearby Andes Mountains as well as the historical and ongoing use of Cu-based pesticides. This study investigated the potential toxicity of Cu to plants (phytotoxicity) in a representative fruit-growing valley. To assess this risk, soil samples were collected from 12 agricultural sites with documented Cu contamination and one uncontaminated site to serve as a baseline. A short-term bioassay was conducted using perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) to evaluate the effects of Cu on plant growth. The results demonstrated that elevated Cu levels significantly reduced both the shoot length and dry mass of the ryegrass plants. However, other soil properties, such as the presence of soluble zinc, organic matter, available nitrogen, and clay content, could mitigate these negative effects. Interestingly, the estimated concentration of Cu causing a 50% reduction in plant growth (EC50) was greater than the values reported in previous studies. This may be because Cu binds to soil organic matter (SOM), which reduces its bioavailability and immediate toxicity to plants. While this binding to SOM can initially reduce the negative effects of Cu, the eventual breakdown of SOM over time may release Cu back into the soil, posing long-term risks to both crops and the wider soil ecosystem. To fully understand these potential long-term impacts, further research is needed and should include studies with other soil organisms, such as earthworms and microorganisms, to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the ecological consequences of Cu contamination in these vital agricultural systems.
