Published: October 2024

The need of modern microelectronics in the development of technological processes for the formation of nanostructured layers puts forward the necessity of understanding the mechanisms of nucleation and growth of deposits. The article considers the features of the initial stages of electrocrystallization of coatings with tin and tin-copper and tin-copper-ultradisperse diamond alloys. The kinetic regularities of electrode processes were studied by the voltammetry method. Based on the experimental data, the nucleation parameters (nucleation energy, eﬀective interphase surface energy, radius and volume of the nucleus) were calculated. SEM images were obtained and the features of the roughness of the coating surfaces after deposition for 10, 20, 30 and 60 s were studied. It was found that co-deposition of tin-copper alloys and tin-copper-ultradisperse diamond particles increases the value of the limiting current from 2.8 · 10–2 to 5.0 · 10–2 A/cm2. With an increase in electrocrystallization over-voltage, the rate of nucleation increases and their size decreases, while ﬁne-grained and dense deposits are formed. With an increase in the deposition duration, crystallites grow and gradually coalesce with each other, the value of the equivalent diameter of the grain coatings increases, respectively, for: Sn – from 1 ⋅ 10–6 to 4 ⋅ 10–6 m, Sn-Cu – from 0.3 ⋅ 10–6 to 1.3 ⋅ 10–6 m, Sn-Cu-ultradispersed diamond – from 0.9 ⋅ 10–6 to 1.4 ⋅ 10–6 m. The established patterns make it possible to control the structure of the coatings and obtain deposits with speciﬁed properties. The presented results may be of interest to specialists involved in the formation of solderable galvanic coatings.

Introdução: O Transtorno Depressivo Maior (TDM) é altamente prevalente e incapacitante, ocupando um alto ônus globalmente. No Brasil, afeta 15,5% da população. A fisiopatologia da depressão envolve teorias, incluindo a monoaminérgica e a dos receptores monoaminérgicos, embora nenhuma seja conclusiva. Tratamentos farmacológicos baseiam-se na teoria monoaminérgica, apesar de suas limitações. Além do TDM, o transtorno depressivo refratário é particularmente desafiador em relação ao tratamento. Estudos estão explorando substâncias psicodélicas como ayahuasca, ketamina e psilocibina, com resultados promissores, mas necessitam de mais investigações. Os psicodélicos são classificados como clássicos (como triptaminas e fenetilaminas) e atípicos (como dissociativos e agonistas canabinóides). Objetivo: realizar uma revisão de literatura acerca dos estudos que abordem a utilização de psicodélicos no tratamento da depressão refratária. Metodologia: O estudo consiste em uma revisão de literatura que sintetiza casos por meio de cinco etapas: seleção do tema e questão norteadora, definição de critérios de inclusão e exclusão, seleção de artigos, análise dos resultados e interpretação, além da síntese dos conhecimentos. A questão norteadora focou em como os psicodélicos podem ser eficazes no tratamento de pessoas com transtornos depressivos refratários. A revisão consultou bases de dados como PubMed/Medline e SciELO, usando descritores como “Depressão”, “Terapêutica”, “Banisteriopsis”, “Ayahuasca”, “Psilocibina” e “Alucinógenos”. Foram selecionados artigos publicados de 2000 a 2023, excluindo aqueles não acessíveis gratuitamente ou não específicos ao tema. Resultados e discussão: Os psicodélicos, como o LSD, ayahuasca, ketamina e psilocibina, são substâncias que alteram o nível de consciência e têm sido estudadas por seus potenciais efeitos terapêuticos na depressão. Ademais, ayahuasca contém substâncias que agem como antidepressivos ao interagir com receptores serotoninérgicos. Nesse sentido, a ketamina tem mostrado eficácia rápida no tratamento da depressão resistente, aumentando os níveis de glutamato. A psilocibina, similar à serotonina, também apresenta efeitos antidepressivos através dos receptores 5HT2A. Estudos indicam que a ketamina pode reduzir rapidamente a ideação suicida em pacientes depressivos. Considerações Finais: Os estudos sobre psicodélicos demonstram limitações significativas, apesar de alguns resultados promissores, como no tratamento do transtorno depressivo refratário. A falta de informações padronizadas impede a criação de protocolos eficazes. Para isso, são necessárias mais pesquisas para explorar e entender melhor o potencial terapêutico destas substâncias.
ASSESSING THE WATER QUALITY OF TIGRIS RIVER FOR DRINKING PURPOSE USING WATER QUALITY INDEX APPROACH
Authors: Al-Ani Ibrahim
Published: October 2024

The Tigris River is considered as the main source of drinking and irrigation in Baghdad. The objective of this research is to assess the quality of Tigris River water for drinking purposes by calculating the Water Quality Index (WQI). The samples were collected from ten stations in January in which five water quality parameters were analyzed: Turbidity, total dissolved solids, concentration of hydrogen ion, dissolved oxygen, biological oxygen demand. The water quality for all the monitored stations was calculated via WQI in which all the stations showed unsuitable quality of water for drinking where the highest value is 534.26 in station 8. The WQI was re-estimated for all the stations excluding the turbidity and total dissolved solids parameters in which station 5 solely shows good quality of water with WQI equals to 46.21. This interprets the condition of the river which can help the local authority in taking action by identifying the sources of pollution and improving the water quality. The stakeholders should be involved in the decision making and mitigation alternatives.

Published: October 2024

The current research is an Engineering evaluation for six sub-surface samples from Al-Dhuluyia Area – Balad district – Salahadden Governorate –Iraq, which has been conducted through Physical, grains shape, chemical and durability tests. The grain size distribution show that gravel size is homogenous with, well graded results, and includes a wide extent of particles size range from 4.75 – 50 mm. The gravel shape texture is classified into five types, good rounded10.90 – 29.01%, rounded of 42.12 - 45.1 %, semi-rounded 16.96 – 29.11%, which are the most common types in the area of research. The few types of gravel in the area are semi-angle10.01 – 13.85%, angle 0.50 - 9.49%, the surface textures for the gravel are slick, about 68%, granular about12%, crystalized about 2% and disk like about 18%. The specific gravity for the tested samples was between 2.1 -2.7, which indicates that it depends on the variety minerals formed the gravel. The test also showed that the gravel absorption rate is very low 0.30 -0.35%, and the mechanical abrasive rate are 0.6 – 0.7%, which is very low therefore the gravel is suitable for concrete process. The Chemical analysis showed very low rate of gypsum content, between 0.027 – 0.092%, and the total dissolved salts 0.054 – 0.199 %, Organic materials 0.037 – 0.082%, Sulphate content not accessed than 0.048%. Moreover, the tests also showed that pH values are between 6.6 - 7.7 lead to, that some research area materials are alkali 6.6-6.7, and the other values of the acidity 7.3 – 7.7 contents lead to the existence of the gypsum. The ratios of the salts and the organic materials are very low as a result of the continuous washing by the water in the river and the shallow ground water which is directly fed by the water from the Tigris River.

Published: October 2024

Biological methods are favorite for synthesis of nanoparticles because of environmental sustainability and cost efficiency. Different types of bacteria have a large part in the synthesis of metallic nanoparticles, and nitrate reductase enzyme, which catalyzes the reduction of nitrate to nitrite, can be produced by various species of prokaryotes like Escherichia coli. Results of Chrome agar medium showed that Escherichia coli as green-blue colonies, and the confirmation of bacterial identification was done by using VITEK-2 compact system. Outcomes indicate that 37ºC, pH 9.0 and 10 milli- Molar of solid silver nitrate considered the optimal conditions for synthesis of silver nanoparticles. Color of Escherichia coli culture supernatant when mixed with silver nitrate and glucose was changed from light yellow to dark brown after 24h incubation as a pre-confirmation of synthesis of silver nanoparticles. Particle size analysis exhibited that silver nanoparticles size ranged from (10.3 to 86.0) nanometer in diameter, and the mean size is 40.2 nanometers, while Scanning electron microscope showed less aggregation of silver nanoparticles with spherical particles. Fourier Transform Infrared analysis of silver nanoparticles showed that strong bands were at 3398.57, 2966.52, 1348.24, 1045.42, 671.23 cm-1 and 532.35 cm-1 corresponds to OH-free, H-C-H, OH-bend resembling to phenol compounds, C-O, C-H and silver nanoparticles bends. Amplification of nitrate reductase genes showed that napA1 and napA2 genes were found in 100% and 98 % of testing isolates, respectively. From these results, it was obvious that bacterial enzyme can apply in the reduction of metals and product nanomaterials in different environments, and this biosynthesis had many advantages in biological and pharmaceutical applications.

Authors:   Leonid Yuzkov Khmelnytskyi University of Management and Law, GROSHOVYK Dmytro
Published: October 2024

A significant portion of local budget revenues is generated from tax revenues derived from individuals' property tax payments. Thus, the property tax levied on individuals is an important factor influencing the development level of the regions in our country. This article highlights the factors affecting property tax volumes and the tax incentives related to its payment. The theoretical and methodological foundations of taxing individuals on property are examined. The components of the property tax are analysed: the tax on real estate, excluding land plots, transport tax, and land use fees. The mechanism for collecting property tax from individuals is discussed under the Tax Code of Ukraine. The fiscal effectiveness of the existing system of property taxation for individuals in Ukraine is analysed, along with the peculiarities caused by the imposition of martial law. In the context of armed aggression against Ukraine, government budget expenditures have significantly increased. Therefore, studying the fiscal function of the property tax on individuals is a pressing issue. The article presents data on the payment of real estate tax by individuals, excluding land plots, transport tax, and land fees, before and after the onset of military actions in Ukraine. The research has established that the volumes of tax revenues from individuals' property taxes are increasing yearly. The research results confirm that the property tax on individuals, under martial law, is a substantial source of funding for local budgets in Ukraine. This underscores the importance and necessity of further enhancing the fiscal function of this tax. It has also been established that the fiscal potential of the property tax on individuals is not fully utilized due to the deficiencies in the existing taxation system. Brief examples of property taxation for individuals, based on the assessed value of such property in foreign countries, are provided. The prospects for reforming the property taxation system for individuals in Ukraine are discussed. Recommendations for reforming the property tax for individuals are formulated to increase its fiscal function.
An Introduction to Global Englishes
Authors: Joicey Ben
Published: October 2024

The rationale for the recently established JALT Global Englishes SIG may be unclear and require explanation. To that end, some key relevant areas of debate are introduced that indicate the relevance and importance of the SIG’s interests to teaching: English as a Native Language; English as a Foreign Language; World Englishes; Standard English; English as a (Multi) Lingua Franca; and Teaching English as an International Language. These introductions are provided to show how and why there has been a shift away from English as a Native Language and Standard English towards alternative conceptions of English. Lastly, some of the implications of these debates for teaching are introduced.
Teachers’ and Parents’ Attitudes towards (Native) Pronunciation and the Part Played by Assistant Language Teachers in English Pronunciation Instruction in Japanese Public Primary and Junior High Schools
Authors: Taura Megumi
Published: October 2024

In Japan, both teachers and learners of English often aspire to achieve a ‘native-like’ pronunciation. While several studies have highlighted this aspiration as problematic, the perspectives of parents and Assistant Language Teachers (ALTs), who may influence young English learners’ beliefs, remain understudied. This study employs a qualitative research method to examine the perspectives of English teachers, ALTs and parents in Japan regarding English pronunciation. It aims to identify the reasons behind their preference for ‘native-like’ pronunciation. Furthermore, the study explores the role of ALTs in promoting the importance of intelligible pronunciation. Through semi-structured interviews, ten participants share their perspectives and experiences. Using phenomenological analysis, the experiences shaping participants’ beliefs are distilled into ten themes. The findings reveal that deficiencies in English proficiency and confidence, recognition of accented speech, the influence of sound model in educational settings and instances of miscommunication with ‘native’ speakers contributed to Japanese participants’ perceptions of themselves as inferior to ‘native’ speakers. Additionally, teachers’ identities and parents’ scepticism about Japanese English teachers’ abilities reinforced the belief that Japanese-accented English is unsuitable for English teachers. To promote the value of intelligible pronunciation, the teachers and ALTs were required to possess knowledge about the instruction of intelligible pronunciation and recognise the equity of different accents. Although this study’s design does not allow for generalisations, it offers valuable insights for those transitioning from the Nativeness Principle to the Intelligibility Principle, considering social factors and personal experiences.
A Global approach for English Conversation Schools in Japan: Suggestions for Incorporating Global Englishes and Intercultural Learning into Listening Materials
Authors: Andrewartha Tim
Published: October 2024

While efforts to be more global have been implemented in various English teaching contexts in Japan, the eikaiwa industry seems the least likely place for change to take place. This is because native-speakerism remains a major selling point for many English conversation schools in Japan, causing concern that learners are not being adequately prepared to use English for global communication. Therefore, this paper looks at key concepts from Global Englishes and draws on particular aspects of intercultural learning, before making two suggestions about how these concepts can be incorporated. One suggestion, which is top-down from management, is updating the in-house textbooks. The other suggestion, which is bottom-up from teachers, is creating their own materials that use authentic listening from the internet. While it is acknowledged that change may be unlikely to come from management anytime soon, it is felt that teachers should lead the way by making their own materials and sharing them amongst the eikaiwa community.
The Connection between Theorisations of English as a Lingua Franca Variation
and Pedagogical Practice
Authors: Joicey Ben
Published: October 2024

The potential of English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) to enable successful communication is implicitly theorised in a number of ELF publications and contrasted positively against Standard English (StE). The theorisations of ELF are limited by ambiguity about the types of communication that ELF communication practices and variations away from StE enable. That difficulty is also relevant to more recent complexity theory-based theorisations of ELF and English as a Multi Lingua Franca (EMF). Although what StE is remains partly unclear and ELF is positioned in these theorisations as a substitute for StE, it also remains unclear to what extent ELF communication practices and variations can substitute use of StE. The extent of ELF variation that can occur before it obstructs communication is also unclear. Examination of these problems allows a clearer understanding of what other empirical ELF research could be useful and the extent to which ELF can be the basis for a reorganisation of the pedagogy of English as a second language.
Relaciones intersubjetivas estudiantes-docentes de colegios rurales distritales: Variaciones/continuidades con tecnologías digitales
Authors: Garavito Sánchez Whisney Uri Angela
Published: October 2024

El presente artículo se deriva de la tesis doctoral titulada Relaciones intersubjetivas que construyen estudiantes y docentes de colegios rurales distritales en interacción con tecnologías digitales. Variaciones y continuidades, cuyo propósito es problematizar las relaciones intersubjetivas en los contextos escolares rurales contemporáneos frente a factores comunicativos, sociológicos y educativos constitutivos de las formas de relación pedagógica y los procesos de construcción de conocimientos escolares en sintonía con la era digital. Con un enfoque cualitativo y una estrategia metodológica fundamentada en la propuesta de reflexión epistemológica del sujeto conocido/cognoscente (Vasilachis, 2006), la investigación plantea procesos de co-creación con los participantes mediante instrumentos de etnografía multilocal  y colaborativa, a partir de los cuales se interpretan variaciones y continuidades acerca de la construcción de sentidos compartidos y la consolidación de vínculos pedagógicos en las relaciones intersubjetivas cara a cara entre estudiantes y docentes cuando interactúan con contenidos digitales, plataformas educativas y/o aplicaciones de aprendizaje interactivo en el aula. Las narrativas aportadas dan pistas sobre la actual Educación Rural de la capital en términos de prácticas educativas innovadoras que promueven la construcción de conocimientos escolares y el fortalecimiento de habilidades convivenciales, comunicativas y tecnológicas necesarias por las demandas culturales del presente siglo.

Actualmente en el país, los jóvenes recién egresados del nivel superior se encuentran con ciertas dificultades para poder integrarse al mercado laboral. Para la mayoría de ellos, es un reto lograr obtener su primer empleo de manera formal, ya que el estar preparados académicamente, no siempre garantiza obtener un empleo. Por ello, el objetivo de esta investigación es analizar si la falta de experiencia laboral es el principal factor que impide a los recién graduados obtener su primer empleo. El estudio tiene un enfoque cualitativo, es no experimental de tipo transversal, por su alcance fue descriptiva-correlacional. La muestra utilizada fueron egresados de la Facultad de Ciencias Económico Administrativas de la Universidad Autónoma de Tlaxcala, en Tlaxcala, México. Se utilizó el programa Statistical Package for the Social Sciences para la determinar la fiabilidad del cuestionario y la correlación respectiva. Los hallazgos muestran una alta correlación entre experiencia laboral de lo egresados y la obtención de su primer empleo. Asimismo, que las instituciones educativas deben de enfocar esfuerzos para que los estudiantes adquieran experiencia laboral previo a egresar y así apoyen en su transición al mercado laboral.

Augmented Reality (AR) technology is one of the increasingly preferred choices for educational development of education. This study aims to identify the level of visualization, motivation and understanding by designing and developing an AR application for the topic of Engineering Drawing. This application enhances the user's clarity and comprehension on the types of drawings and the form of the drawing to be presented. The design and development process of this AR application uses the Hannafin and Peck model as a guideline. The research instruments used are expert review forms for product development and questionnaires. The study included a total of 52 students from Sungai Buloh Vocational College, Selangor, as participants. The findings were analysed descriptively using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 27. The evaluation was conducted on three (3) aspects, namely the level of visualisation, motivation and comprehension of the students, as well as the significance of research to examine the gender differences between the three aspects. The findings of the study revealed that the use of the AR application produced for the three (3) components yielded a favourable outcome with a reliability value of r=0.855, which demonstrates that the instrument possesses a high level of reliability. However, no significant difference was found between the genders of the students that participated in the study. In general, the findings of the study indicate that the implementation of the AR teaching and learning kit has yielded positive outcomes in terms of enhancing students' visualisation skills, motivation levels and comprehension of the Engineering Drawings subject.
