. Lesson Study is an experiential learning experience that has a direct impact on developing local
knowledge and improving teaching. In the Lesson Study model, teachers of the same class or course meet regularly to
co-create and plan lessons aimed at finding effective teaching methods.
As interest in the world of education has grown, Lesson Study has attracted teachers, experts and professionals
from the region to use it to improve lessons - and this is also happening in Kazakhstan. It was first used in teaching
mathematics in Japan and is now being used in other areas, including biology. The adaptation of the Lesson Study is
interesting because Japan and Kazakhstan have different cultures. While much has been reported on how the Lesson
Study is commonly used in Japan and the United States, there is little research on how it is used in Kazakhstan. Since
this is a case study, it only focuses on the school. Interview and observation were the tools used in this study. The
interviews were used to obtain information on how the Lesson Study is typically conducted, and observation was also
used to observe the actual implementation of the Lesson Study with the researcher. In this article, much attention is
paid to the events that occurred during the implementation of the Lesson Study program and the educational process.

This article examines current issues in arts education regarding its role in the
preservation and promotion of cultural heritage. From there, the article looks at ways of integrating
them, which can ultimately be realized through the active work of cultural institutions and the education
system. The education of cultural literacy, in the context of the study of global and national cultural
historical values, creates the prerequisites for further positioning oneself as an educated fully developed
person. In modern conditions of the revival of many aspects of national culture, new opportunities for
the revision of views on the history of culture of the people, which contribute to the moral and patriotic
education of today's youth. In this process, a special place should be given to museums, which are the
centre of material and spiritual heritage artefacts. Due to their uniqueness, museums are like
accumulators of all national cultural treasures. Therefore, this article examines the integrated
opportunities for in-depth study of national heritage and cultural specificities within the framework of
museum pedagogy as an important part of art education.

Adaptation to climate change is a process that should engage different participants, including not only researchers and technicians but also other stakeholders and local individuals and, therefore, it is important to understand their beliefs on the local effects of climate change. Recent studies illustrate a linear relation between coastal distance and scepticism, which is lower in coastal zones than in inland. A possible explanation is that people living inland do not experience (or do not perceive) particular natural hazards as being caused by climate change, or attribute the natural hazards to other causes, apart from climate change. This might influence the relative importance of dealing with direct anthropogenic effects and planning adaptation to climate change. Therefore, the goal of this work was to explore this effect by comparing beliefs on the local effects of climate change in Aveiro region (Portugal), specifically in Baixo Vouga Lagunar (BVL, located in the inner side of Ria de Aveiro Coastal Lagoon, 10 km distance from the coast) with the nearby coastal zone between Esmoriz and Vagueira settlements. Stakeholders were interviewed and local individuals were surveyed in order to explore causal attributions towards relevant local environmental problems and compare with data available from the coastal zone. Natural hazards concerned flooding in BVL and shoreline retreat in the coastal zone. Results suggest that in BVL both stakeholders and local residents did not attribute local natural hazards to climate change. However, in the coastal zone, local natural hazards were indeed mostly attributed to climate change. This attribution to climate change was further correlated to a higher risk perception of natural hazards in the coastal zone but not in BVL. Thereby, it is important to consider distance from the shoreline in order to promote local processes of adaptation to climate change.
Caracterização da costa marinha do Balneário Camacho (Santa Catarina, Brasil) como subsídio à gestão
Authors: Cristiano Samanta da Costa , Barboza Eduardo Guimarães , Martins Eduardo Marques , Gruber Nelson Luiz Sambaqui
Published: May 2023

A ocupação inadequada da costa é o resultado da falta de planejamento, que acarreta em alterações paisagísticas relevantes e destruição de ecossistemas. O padrão de colonização do território sul-catarinense culminou no assentamento de núcleos urbanos muito próximos a habitats costeiros importantes e frágeis, por comporem ambientes que viabilizam comércio, comunicação, extração de recursos naturais, turismo e lazer. A degradação costeira na Área de Preservação Ambiental da Baleia-Franca, sobretudo no litoral de Jaguaruna (Estado de Santa Catarina, Brasil), resultou em uma recomendação do Ministério Público Federal sobre a costa municipal, fato que motivou este estudo. A área de estudo compreende o Balneário Camacho, que fica no nordeste de Jaguaruna, inserido em uma barreira arenosa, com a identificação dos seguintes ambientes: campo de dunas, planície alagável com lagoas e banhados (perenes e intermitentes), o Sambaqui Garopaba do Sul e assentamentos humanos. O sistema de dunas da orla é formado por dunas barcanas e cadeias barcanoides, intercaladas por planícies alagáveis, onde se tem a formação de nebkhas. A classificação da costa é um método de ordenamento territorial que pode dar apoio à decisão política. Neste contexto, a paisagem do Balneário Camacho foi classificada conforme seus ambientes e principais áreas de conflito antrópico; ademais, efetuou-se a estimativa de vulnerabilidade das dunas costeiras. Nos limites da orla da região foram encontrados diversos conflitos antropogênicos: ocupações irregulares e/ou em áreas de risco, depósitos irregulares de resíduos sólidos, plantio de árvores exóticas em dunas (para “estabilizá-las”) e acessos à praia para veículos sem controle. Os resultados foram agrupados por análise multivariada de correlação, resultando em áreas de diferentes níveis de ocupação: “não edificada”, “edificada” e “parcialmente edificada”. As características do meio físico conferem maior vulnerabilidade às dunas, enquadradas nos níveis: 2, onde há sinais de mudanças no sistema, e 3, onde se percebe significativa degradação das dunas. A orla do Balneário Camacho foi dividida em cinco setores, classificados em três zonas: (i) impactada, (ii) em degradação e (iii) preservada, para as quais foram desenhadas propostas de manejo. Concluiu-se, a partir do observado, que ainda há muito por fazer para alcançar sustentabilidade na região. A alternativa mais promissora é o desenvolvimento voltado ao ecoturismo, devido à localização geográfica e beleza paisagística local. Demais usos sustentáveis devem ser discutidos com a comunidade e planejados adequadamente.

This study aimed at finding the analysis of gender and poverty status among catfish farming households in the Ibadan Metropolis of Oyo State. The study was carried out in all eleven local government areas in the State. Six wards were randomly selected from each of the local government Areas from which two farming households were randomly selected based on probability proportionate to the population of farming households in each ward. Primary data were collected from farming households. The data generated were subjected to descriptive analysis on household socioeconomic characteristics and production system, Foster, Greek and Thorbecke weighted poverty indices alongside the Probit regression model. From the survey data, the value of the poverty line computed was N51150.57. Thus the farming household that earns less than the value of the poverty line were considered poor which is about 66.4% of the sampled households, while those that earn greater than equal to the value of the poverty line were considered to be non-poor which is 33.6% of the sampled households. This implies that the majority of the respondents live below the average income in the study area. Probit regression model result indicates the marital status of the household, farming experience, access to remittances, and the pond size (if large) are the four factors that affect the farmers significantly at 5%, 10%, 1% and 10% respectively. Premised on the findings, it was recommended among others that the gender gap between the male and female gender in terms of production should be bridged and there is an urgent need to encourage human capacity development among respondents since the study revealed that education of both males and females reduces poverty.

Authors: Agustini Hudiyati , Ulfa Nurul
Published: May 2023

This study was conducted to obtain an overview of the patient's level of trust in safety in the outpatient registration unit of IMC Bintaro hospital during the COVID-19 pandemic. The number of patients visiting IMC Bintaro Hospital decreased at the beginning of the pandemic, there where 55,101 people who registered outpatients in January-July 2019 while in January-July 2020 only 37,121 people (decreased 32%). This condition is thought to be due to the patient's concern about the transmission of COVID-19.

The level of confidence research was carried out using a descriptive method in the outpatient registration unit of the IMC Bintaro Hospital, in February-April 2021. A randomly selected sample of 100 patients where registered in December 2020-February 2021. The technique of collecting data was by interviewing the head of the registration unit, observation, and an electronic questionnaire containing 10 questions related to the patient's level of confidence.

The results showed that IMC Bintaro Hospital does not yet have an SOP for outpatient registration adapted to the pandemic conditions. However, health workers and registration areas have implemented health protection based on the Director's memo. While data from questionnaires to patients showed a high level of patient knowledge about COVID-19 (an average of 94.8% answered agree), accompanied by a high level of patient confidence in safety in the outpatient registration unit (an average of 88% answered agree).

Most of the samples gave a positive response, they have received services in line with expectations. Patients feel safe for treatment at the IMC Bintaro Hospital during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, it should be understood that the sample was taken from patients who came to the hospital after the pandemic lasted for about 1 year, while number of patients who visited the hospital during the study was not carried out.

Principles and Applications of Agricultural Meteorology
Authors: Patra Alok Kumar
Published: May 2023

Weather and climate is a natural resource which is considered as a basic input in agricultural planning. It affects all the agricultural activities directly or indirectly. Agrometeorology is primarily concerned with the interactions among meteorological, hydrological and pedological factors that influence production systems in agriculture and allied sectors like horticulture, animal husbandry, fishery, forestry, etc. Thus the role of an agrometeorologist is to define all these interactions, to correlate physical environments with biological responses and apply the relevant meteorological skills to help farmers for exploiting weather conditions and improve agricultural production both in quality and quantity. In this backdrop, agrometeorology has been recommended as a core subject in the curriculum of B. Sc. (Agriculture), B. Sc. (Horticulture) and B. Sc. (Forestry) courses of the agricultural universities. Keeping this in view, this book has been written for the undergraduate students. The common people, who watch weather phenomenon and take an interest in it, would also find it worth reading. This book is primarily based on the syllabus of the course ‘Agricultural Meteorology’ meant for under graduate students of agriculture, horticulture and forestry. This book has been divided into twenty three chapters covering all aspects of agrometeorology. Concepts, definition, importance and scope, history and future needs of agrometeorology are described in Chapter 1. Chapter 2 details the basic information of atmosphere. Chapter 3 to chapter 13 include the weather parameters like radiation, temperature, humidity, evaporation, fog and dew, pressure, wind, clouds, monsoon and precipitation and their importance in agriculture. Applied aspects of meteorology like climatic hazards, agroclimatic classification, micrometeorology of crops, weather in relation to crop pests and diseases, weather in relation to animal production, climate change, weather forecasting, remote sensing and crop simulation modelling are discussed in Chapter 14 to chapter 22. Chapter 23 describes the features of an agrometeorological observatory.

Sustainable agricultural management approaches in the soil environment is the key to sustained food security, soil quality and livelihood security. The damage to soil fertility and depletion of plant nutrient elements in soil has emerged as major threats to the sustainability of diverse agricultural production systems. Therefore, soil and water testing is considered an important tool to assess the essential plant nutrient elements need to formulate crop and site specific nutrient recommendations vis-à-vis climate change strategies. Soil test based nutrient use optimizes economic returns and minimizes risks of environmental pollution. Characterization of soil mineralogical, microbiological or biochemical properties within an experimental area among different treatments or cropping systems it requires the utmost attention to planning details. It is imperative to establish experimental objectives as a prelude to developing the sampling plan. As a component of development of sampling plan, one must begin by evaluating the environment from which samples will come. To accomplish this goal one must determine the physical and chemical features of the experimental area that includes the basic agents of nutrient supply i.e. soil and water. It contains principles and reactions of chemical analysis, soil sampling and analytical techniques for the determination of physical and chemical parameters of soil and water samples. The book on “Soil and Water Analysis” will be helpful to the Soil Chemists, Agriculture Officers, Specialists and research scholars of soil testing laboratories and other laboratory technicians/assistants.

"Quarantine has emerged as a most referred and used word in 2019-2020 for the human being around the world. It has made impact on the human lives, national economies, people migration, restriction on human movement and political turbulences in several nation around the world with the emergence of Covid-19, a human virus as an invasive species. Like human quarantine, the subject of plant quarantine is also an important subject in the plant and food securities around the world. The recent attack of locust in Sub-Saharan region upto Indian continent has impacted the agriculture due to this invasive alien species. Several examples of diseases and pest threats are encountered the agricultural crop production, bioversity and ecological environment of the region. Plant quarantine regulations in different regions of the world helps to save the damage from such invasive alien species. The sudden emergence of plant pathogen including viruses may surprise the common and government establishments. Therefore, knowledge on subject of plant quarantine in context to invasive alien species is atmost important issue. At present this knowledge is lacking, the literature is scattered and there is no upto date book available on this subject. The book Plant Quarantine, an approach to restrict invasive alien species, is a compilation of all necessary aspects related to this subject. The book content 16 chapters. It is valuable asset for the plant quarantine personnel working in the field, agriculture university students, plant health workers, farmers doing agriculture, plant and seed traders and to all those who use agriculture produce and products.

La despenalización del aborto en tres causales en Chile: legado conservador y agencia de las mujeres de centro-izquierda
Authors: Pérez Bentancur Verónica
Published: May 2023

En América Latina, la legislación restrictiva sobre aborto representa una de las expresionesmás relevantes sobre desigualdad de género/clase. Las leyes sobre aborto legal han sidolas más difíciles de adoptar entre las llamadas reformas sobre derechos de las mujeres.Dado su carácter doctrinario, la literatura ha señalado que las reformas sobre aborto legalsolo se adoptan tras la agencia intensa de los actores reformistas en contextos progresistas.Mediante el estudio en profundidad del caso chileno, este artículo ilustra el trabajosoproceso de adopción de estas leyes y destaca que tres factores fueron decisivos: el lobbyactivo de las mujeres de los partidos de centro-izquierda, la agencia de la presidentasocialista Bachelet, y una mayoría de centro-izquierda en el Congreso.

The cold-rolled aluminium sections are the new products made by utilising the existing cold-rolling system for cold-formed steel sections with two typical sections of channel and Zed sections. These new products have been demonstrated to save time and cost in manufacturing. The design of the cold-rolled aluminium members has been not regulated by any standards in the world. Research studies on behaviors and strengths of these members, therefore, have been carried out and original results on cold-rolled aluminium channel columns undergoing global buckling have been obtained. These studies were conducted in Australia. Therefore, the paper will collect these study results on cold-rolled aluminium channel columns, and these results are subsequently compared with the capacities from the Australian Aluminium Standard. The comparisons are carried out by using the reliability analysis as regulated in the American Aluminum Specification; this will be the base to evaluate the Australian/New Zealand Aluminium Standard in the design of cold-rolled aluminium alloy channel columns undergoing global buckling. It is found that the Australian standard provides un-conservative predictions for cold-rolled aluminium channel columns.
Collective guilt, individual and prospective responsibility
Authors: Ronca Gianluca
Published: May 2023

Beginning with a brief presentation of the historical data and conceptual issues that have led to the emergence of the doctrine of the notion of Transitional Justice, I will describe the orientation adopted in two paradigmatic historical contexts, the Nuremberg trial at the end of the Second World War and the post-apartheid reconciliation process in South Africa. Supported by documents from International Human Rights Law and other international legal sources (Rome Statute)  I will then offer a provisional definition of what I call a Critical Transitional Justice. The conclusion highlights how the relationship between retrospective and prospective responsibility today is not exclusionary: as central principles of Critical Transitional Justice, they contribute in conferring normative legitimacy to transformative processes of adapting the international system to compliance to general principles of human rights.
