Importance of Invigilator Training
Authors: DeMontigny David
Published: July 2024

Graduate students are often hired to help faculty members invigilate examinations. However, without proper training and support, how can the institution be sure the invigilators they hired are prepared to approach someone who may be cheating? Additionally, has the institution told invigilators how to report allegations of misconduct to the appropriate investigation body? This presentation will highlight the importance of training invigilators so they are properly prepared to serve in this important role. The presenter will discuss the rights of the individual writing the exam and the rights of the invigilator(s). The discussion will include advice on how prepare individuals to be a successful invigilator. Real examples of what can happen during an exam, both good and bad, will be shared.

Speaking about academic integrity with students can be challenging. In this session I will demonstrate how I moved beyond the traditional policy overview lecture, to engage audiences in interactive, research-based discussions that were focused on 1) addressing the root causes of academic integrity adherence/violation unique to that group; 2) debunking myths around academic integrity; 3) providing customized explanations of why departing from academic integrity is detrimental; and 4) highlighting resources focused on treating the root causes (e.g. unintentional plagiarism, poor time management, mental health) of many violations. Examples from talks given to first year undergraduate students, students in a professional program in which academic integrity adherence was low, and to MSc/PhD students who had recently received access to similarity detection reports will be shared.
Participants who attend this session will leave with 1) examples of how to bring academic research into non-research settings; 2) a set of questions that they can use to help them to customize their own presentations based on the audience to which they are presenting; 3) ideas of how to form a connection with their audience through the use of relevant examples; and 4) tips on how to engage with their audience through polls.

Authors: Salmon Holly , Moist Shannon
Published: July 2024

How can we meet students where they are to provide academic integrity instruction? By moving to the centre of campus and engaging students in walk-up learning opportunities outside the classroom. In this presentation, faculty members from the Library and Learning Centre will share their collaborative experiences in creating new academic integrity supports for students in an institution where Academic Integrity does not fall under the umbrella of an institution's Teaching & Learning Centre or a dedicated Academic Integrity Office.
Participants will learn about a new collaborative initiative to engage students in learning about academic integrity that includes a series of interactive activities in a central space on campus. This collaborative tabling between the Library, Learning Centre, and Student Life allows students to explore ideas they have, ask questions, and engage in learning activities outside the “normal” learning environment of classroom, library and tutoring spaces and connect the students to the services offered for deeper learning through knowledge of the available resources. Time will be reserved for others to share similar programming and ideas.

Authors: Chaudhari Hitesh Narayan ,   KCC INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT
Published: July 2024

The convergence of genetics, neuroscience, and education has led to the emergence of DNA-based practices for skill enhancement, promising to revolutionize personalized learning and professional development. This paper investigates the current state of research and application in this field, aiming to evaluate the potential of genetic information to tailor educational and training programs to individual needs. Recent advancements in genomic research have identified specific genetic variants linked to cognitive abilities, learning capacity, and skill acquisition. These discoveries provide a scientific foundation for personalized education strategies, where genetic profiles can inform customized learning plans. This approach has the potential to optimize educational outcomes by aligning teaching methods with individual genetic predispositions, thereby enhancing memory retention, cognitive performance, and skill mastery. The paper explores several key areas: 1. Genetic Influences on Learning and Cognitive Abilities: An overview of significant genetic markers and their impact on learning processes. 2. Personalized Education Based on Genetic Profiles: Current methodologies and case studies demonstrating the application of genetic information in educational settings. 3. Neurogenetics and Skill Acquisition: The role of specific genes in neuroplasticity and the development of skills, with a focus on empirical studies and practical implementations. Methodologically, this research synthesizes findings from academic literature, surveys, and interviews with experts in genetics and education. A comparative analysis is conducted between traditional learning approaches and DNA-informed strategies to assess their effectiveness in various contexts. The findings indicate that DNA-based personalized learning can lead to significant improvements in educational and professional outcomes. Examples include tailored learning programs that cater to genetic predispositions, resulting in enhanced cognitive abilities and faster skill acquisition. However, the implementation of these practices is not without challenges. Ethical considerations, such as privacy concerns and the potential for genetic discrimination, must be addressed. Moreover, the current limitations of genetic research necessitate cautious and well-regulated application of these insights.

Authors: Deshmukh Soham , Dharawane Prachi , Nanaware Atharva , Sardesai Vidula
Published: July 2024

This paper explores the integration of automated fee payment systems in ATMs, focusing on the use of One- Time Password (OTP) verification to enhance transaction security and efficiency. The system allows users to authenticate their identity through an ID card, enter a unique Zero Payment Reference Number (ZPRN), and deposit the required fee. The ATM then sends an OTP to the user’s registered mobile number, which the user must enter to complete the transaction. This method prevents unauthorized transactions, even if the ID card and ZPRN are compromised. The paper examines the design and implementation of these systems, their advantages, and challenges. It highlights how OTP verification increases security and user confidence, making ATMs a more reliable option for complex financial transactions. Additionally, it discusses the potential for future enhancements such as biometric authentication and blockchain technology to further improve ATM security and efficiency. Despite challenges like technical issues and the need for user education, the benefits of automated fee payment systems with OTP verification make them a significant advancement in financial technology.

Published: July 2024

Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), affecting women's emotional, mental, and somatic states, severely interrupts functioning and occupational engagement. Interventions customarily include psychological, hormonal, and psychiatric treatments; we found no information regarding sensory intervention or sensory-system characterization of women coping with PMDD. This case study concerns a woman hospitalized for worsening PMDD symptoms, functional deterioration, and sensory-system changes. The woman received client-centered occupational therapy intervention addressing sensory modulation and coping strategies in order to extend the duration of time she could participate in daily occupations. Results show awareness of sensory aspects as meaningful to the woman. The sensory-modulation intervention promoted her feeling of control and ability to adjust reactions to the environment. She reported an increase in awareness of the difficulties and in her ability to manage and participate in daily activities. It is recommended to address sensory aspects in interventions with women with PMDD as well as further studies, to establish knowledge about the sensory components in this disorder.

Published: July 2024

The oral cavity is one of the main gates for coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2); the oral cavity also suffers greatly from this infection, because it is one of the most vulnerable places. In addition, since the salivary glands can serve as a reservoir for viruses and support their release into the external environment, it was concluded that saliva, as a component of oral fluid, can play an important role in the spread of coronavirus infection. This is mainly due to the ACE-2 receptor, which have a high level of expression in the keratinized surface epithelial cells of the oral mucosa, especially in the epithelial cells of the dorsal part of the tongue, tonsils, vocal cords, salivary glands and sinuses, due to which the virus replicates in and causes both oral lesions and oral symptoms mouth After entering the cell, the virus delays the response of the immune system, allowing the infection to progress, and it becomes much more difficult to fight it. Accordingly, due to the relatively high level of COVID-19-associated complications, timely diagnosis of clinical forms, including high-risk patients with prognosis their clinical course and the selection of drug treatment appropriate to the severity of the clinical course remain quite complex and controversial issues. It was emphasized that in some cases oral symptoms may be the initial or only sign of disease, and dentists should take this into account when performing a thorough clinical examination of the oral cavity.

Wanstschrecke (Polysarcus denticauda) Zum Erstnachweis in Deutschland im 19. Jahrhundert im Neckartal bei Tübingen und ihrem dortigen Erlöschen
Authors: Trautner Jürgen
Published: July 2024

This article pinpoints the location of the first German record of the Bull Bush-cricket (Polysarcus denticauda) near Tübingen, summarizes the few other data from this area and discusses the development of the species‘ presence and its habitat situation there. Its occurrence near Tübingen at the end of the 19th century, at around 315-320 m above sea level, was at lower altitude than the closest occurrences on the current northern edge of the species‘ sub-range in Baden-Württemberg, which start at an altitude of > 390 m above sea level. In view of the species‘ biology and habitat requirements, it seems most plausible to conclude that the Bull Bush-cricket disappeared completely or largely from the Tübingen area early, due to fluctuations in abundance and presence-absence at the edge of the range as a result of various weather conditions. Other factors that endanger the species today were probably not yet very pronounced at that time.

Published: July 2024

El estudio de los nombres y apellidos, en las sociedades amazónicas, demanda una mirada sincrónica que complemente aquella que se ocupa solo de su etimología. Y de la cultura Awajun, es necesario presentar la evolución que ellos han tenido desde que la identificación de las personas pasó a hacerse con el sistema oficial, en el esquema: nombre-apellido 1-apellido 2. La investigación presenta una breve muestra de cómo se fue expresando esa inserción, con la aparición de los primeros apellidos registrados oficialmente, así como la aparición de aquellos que pertenecen a otra matriz cultural. Los datos muestran que, durante la primera mitad del siglo XX, en El Cenepa, esa inserción implicó predominantemente la constitución de apellidos originarios, pero también la aparición, aunque ínfima, de aquellos que están proviniendo de una matriz cultural diferente al Awajun, que se ha hecho más expresivo sobre todo en la adopción de los nombres.

Fuzzy logic-based prediction data for the CNC lathe
Authors: Kunhirunbawon S. , Suwichien N. , Jantarasricha T. , Butdee S.
Published: July 2024

The research aims to predict the parameters between the cutting speed range correlated to the depth of cut for the CNC lathe.The model predicts the cutting speed parameters carried out based on the data range between the depth of the cut and the cutting speed. That information has been derived from the machine tool handbook and expert engineer recommendations. The fuzzy logic-based methods were used to predict cutting speed parameters for three different materials: aluminium, machine steel, and stainless steel. The data range in each material was used to condition the membership function.The result shows that the prediction cutting speed parameters are related to the range of the depth of the cut between 0.15 and 0.4 mm. It is observed that if the depth of the cut is very high, the cutting speed is lower. The information obtained is slightly different from the machine tool handbook. It can be used with the feed rate parameters to perform the machining process of the CNC lathes in the smart factory.Further research should focus on predicting surface roughness and tool wear in the turning.The cutting speed selection has a significant impact on manufacturing. It affects production time, tool wear, cost, etc. Generally, the parameter has been derived from machining handbooks or machine tools textbooks, and some data is vague because it has only maximum and minimum. The data between ranges is unclear for operation. Executing production planning for new engineers was hard, which can affect manufacturing systems. Therefore, proper and precise cutting parameters are required.General machine tool manuals often provide vague information on recommended parameters and only show the maximum and minimum values. In past research, it has only a determined parameters range for the experiment. The data between ranges is unclear for operation. In this research, the parameter prediction was performed between the cutting speed range related to the cutting depth, which is for use in the CNC lathe process.

O estudo investigou a influência de corantes naturais na biodegradação de filmes de poli-(3-hidroxibutirato) [P(3HB)], um biopolímero biodegradável. Motivado pela necessidade crescente de materiais sustentáveis, o trabalho avaliou como os corantes cúrcuma, páprica e urucum afetam a degradação desses filmes. Duas metodologias distintas de incorporação de corantes foram aplicadas: uma durante o processo fermentativo e outra após o processo. Os filmes foram submetidos a testes de biodegradação em solo simulado, com avaliações aos 30, 60 e 90 dias. Os resultados mostraram que a coloração e a biodegradação variaram conforme a metodologia e o tipo de corante utilizado. A presença de corantes afetou a formação de poros e a taxa de fragmentação dos filmes, com a cúrcuma e a páprica apresentando maior biodegradação e perda de cor, enquanto o urucum demonstrou maior estabilidade de coloração, mas menor taxa de biodegradação devido às suas propriedades antibacterianas. O estudo demonstra que a adição de corantes pode alterar as propriedades de fragmentação dos filmes de P(3HB). Este trabalho inovador abre portas para novas pesquisas e aplicações industriais, promovendo a substituição de plásticos convencionais por alternativas mais sustentáveis. A necessidade de práticas mais ecológicas reforça a relevância da pesquisa, contribuindo para o avanço tecnológico e a redução do impacto ambiental.

A diverticulite aguda jejunal é uma doença rara, com incidência de 5% para acometimento jejunal, sendo mais prevalente em colón sigmóide. Ocorre após a quinta década de idade, onde sua prevalência aumenta com a idade. A fisiopatologia da diverticulite jejunal ocorre com a combinação de dois fatores: estase do conteúdo intestinal no divertículo e edema da mucosa obstruindo o anel, favorecendo crescimento microbiano intradiverticular. Por se tratar de uma doença rara, o objetivo deste caso é mostrar um diagnóstico diferencial de abdome agudo inflamatório e perfurativo. Este trabalho se trata de um estudo observacional descritivo de relato de caso, realizado pela equipe de Cirurgia Geral da Santa Casa de Fernandópolis, e revisão de literatura. A diverticulose jejunoileal só requer intervenção cirúrgica nas complicações agudas, o que representa 10% a 19% dos casos. Sendo a maioria, portanto, conduzida conservadoramente. É de extrema importância o diagnóstico diferencial do abdome agudo inflamatório e perfurativo para melhor tratamento da patologia.
O INSÓLITO NA MITOPOÉTICA ANDARA: QUEDA E ASCENSÃO EM “A ASA E A SERPENTE” DE CECIM DA AMAZÔNIA
Authors: Cavalcante Mayra Adriana da Costa , Castilo Luís Heleno Montoril Del
Published: July 2024

Este artigo intenciona refletir sobre as manifestações do insólito na obra A asa e a serpente (1979) do escritor paraense Vicente Franz Cecim, bem como o caráter de voos e rastejamentos (queda e ascensão) dos personagens e eventos insólitos que permeiam a narrativa. O escritor Vicente Franz Cecim ao criar Andara, uma região mitopoética metáfora da Amazônia, cria também um espaço geográfico verbal povoado de elementos e personagens sobrenaturais. A asa e a serpente nos oferece a possibilidade de imergir em uma instância sobrenatural e ressignificar os símbolos e as suas representações, evidenciando que a literatura insólita permeia o imaginário e, portanto é parte da construção cultural amazônica, figurando como uma forma de resistência ao processo de aculturação. Para embasamento teórico recorremos aos textos do estudioso Flavio García (2012) e suas proposições acerca do insólito ficcional e como conceituação teórica trazemos os postulados de Tzvetan Todorov (2010) além das concepções acerca do espaço de hibridês dentro da narrativa, em Furtado (1980).

Nilai  dan VS30 digunakan untuk menentukan nilai ketebalan lapisan sedimen (h). Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa nilai ketebalan lapisan sedimen (h) berkisar antara 5,03 m - 47,43 m. Peta sebaran nilai ketebalan lapisan sedimen menunjukkan daerah penelitian dengan nilai ketebalan lapisan sedimen tinggi terletak pada sebagian kecil Desa Ulusena dan Desa Watu Porambaa. Sehingga kedua daerah ini beresiko lebih besar akan mengalami kerusakan akibat gempabumi. Jenis lapisan tanah yang didasarkan pada klasifikasi tanah oleh Kanai (1983) diklasifikasikan menjadi 4 jenis tanah dengan daerah penelitian yang didominasi oleh tanah Jenis I, dimana jenis ini berupa batuan tersier atau lebih tua yang terdiri dari batuan pasir berkerikil keras. Jenis I ini terletak pada Desa Wonua Jaya, bagian barat dan selatan Desa Sumbersari, bagian timur Desa Pudaria Jaya, serta sebagian kecil Desa Watu Porambaa dan Desa Ulusena.

Published: July 2024

Penelitian ini terletak di Kecamatan Lainea Desa Lainea Sulawesi Tenggara yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui struktur bawah permukaan berdasarkan Teknik deteksi tepi dan mengetahui kedalaman sumber anomali dengan menggunakan dekonvolusi euler. Segmentasi sesar dengan kecenderungan dan kedalaman yang bervariasi menggambarkan kompleksitas aktivitas tektonik di sekitar wilayah penilitan. Penerapan beberapa teknik deteksi tepi pada data anomali residual menunjukkan keunggulan pendekatan TAHG dalam mengidentifikasi batas tepi zona sumber panas bumi dan kelurusan struktur geologi sedangkan pendekatan TDX hanya menunujukkan batas-batas anomali. Solusi kedalaman dekonvolusi euler menunjukkan bahwa sesar yang dihasilkan dari pendekatan TAHG termasuk dalam sesar dangkal.

Pedagogy in Legal Terminology Translation: A Corpus-based Approach
Authors: Zeng Chenjie
Published: July 2024

This paper explores effective pedagogical practices to train high-end foreign legal professionals in China’s Greater Bay Area by answering two research questions. First, can corpus-based teaching be applied as a productive pedagogical method? Second, how can beginner professionals be cultivated in legal translation capabilities in the legal domain? The paper proposes a module entitled “Introduction to Legal Terminology Translation,” which includes sessions on legal systems and legalese, corpus approach, and group presentation. A sequential mixed-method survey was conducted using qualitative methods, such as focus groups and interviews, followed by quantitative research using a questionnaire. A preliminary pilot study involved a focus group, questionnaire, and interview. Two identical questionnaires were distributed to two groups of students: one control and one experimental. In the ten-student experiment group, an instructor taught legalese and distributed a follow-up questionnaire. In the twenty-two-student control group, the instructor (more knowledgeable other) did not teach legalese but used a corpus-based questionnaire to assess student entry into the zone of proximal development. In the questionnaire, entry-level Latin legalese examples were provided. During interviews, junior university students preferred a mixture of all three pedagogical methods, while senior university students preferred the corpus approach due to its enhanced efficiency and accuracy.
A Study on the Determinants of Apartment Transaction Price: Focused on Mapo-gu, Seoul
Authors: Park Joohwan , Park Munsu ,   Korea Real Estate Industry Society
Published: July 2024

Recent increases in apartment prices in Seoul have led to increased research on factors influencing apartment prices. This study focused on Mapo-gu, and the findings are as follows: Factors positively affecting apartment prices include total number of households, number of floors in the building, distance to middle schools, and distance to the Dangin-ri thermal power plant. Factors negatively affecting apartment prices include floor area, contract duration, distance to Mapo Resource Recovery Facility, and elapsed duration. Of particular note in this study is that the distance to the Dangin-ri thermal power plant does not influence apartment prices. As the distance to the Dangin-ri thermal power plant decreases, positive effects are observed. Factors such as the absence of fuel storage, underground facilities for major facilities, and park development on the site seem to be at play. This contrasts with the previous trend where operational thermal power plants were considered factors negatively affecting apartment investment decisions.Such findings could contribute to further analysis of investment decision factors for apartments in Mapo-gu in the future.
Rodbina Apfaltrer v srednjem veku Začetki rodu in vzpon rojske linije
Authors: Kotar Jernej
Published: July 2024

The paper in two parts constitutes the first attempt at providing a comprehensive and primary source-based discussion of the Apfaltrers’ medieval history. Throughout its nearly seven centuries-long existence, the family had an important bearing on the destiny of Slovenian territory and left an indelible mark on it. It had the closest affiliation with the former province of Carniola, whence it also spread to Styria very early on. Its modest beginnings in the ranks of the Spanheims’ ministerial nobility were followed by a gradual social ascendancy, which, from the fifteenth century onwards, enabled the Apfaltrers to form part of the Carniolan noble elite. In spite of not attaining the highest offices in the provincial princely administration during the Middle Ages, members of the family played an important role at local level. Even though the family’s genealogical composition is not entirely clear, it is possible to recognize the existence of two main lines at least from the mid-fourteenth century onwards. The first part of the paper deals with the beginnings of the family and the Roje family line.
