Authors: Cunha Maiara Pereira , Machado Natália Marques , Bossardi Carina Nunes , Azevedo Isadora Conversano de
Published: June 2024

O presente estudo teve como objetivo investigar os fatores de risco e proteção do processo migratório de famílias venezuelanas residentes no sul do Brasil sob o olhar das políticas públicas. Realizou-se uma entrevista semiestruturada com nove famílias venezuelanas. Para a interpretação dos dados, foi utilizada a análise de conteúdo categorial proposta por Bardin (2011). Constatou-se como fatores de risco pré-migratórios a carência de alimentos, a falta de medicamentos e de itens de uso pessoal. Os fatores de proteção na Venezuela estiveram associados ao amparo de familiares e amigos e por meio do lazer. Os fatores de risco no Brasil, relacionaram-se a falta de moradia ou a condições precárias existentes nessa, a dificuldades com o idioma, a saudade de familiares, problemáticas associadas a inserção escolar da criança, ao retrocesso no ano escolar e a barreiras experienciadas relacionadas a cultura. Como fatores de proteção pós-migratórios cita-se o papel das organizações independentes no acolhimento ao imigrante, juntamente com a solidariedade da população brasileira, o lazer e o auxílio advindo da escola. Embora nos últimos anos tenha ocorrido modificações no contexto das políticas públicas brasileiras, as famílias que imigram ainda vivenciam fatores de risco significativos a saúde mental e física dos membros. Torna-se necessário a reflexão e debate do Estado em como está ocorrendo essas políticas a fim de preencher as lacunas existentes nesse contexto. Essa pesquisa traz consigo informações que poderão servir como um meio de orientação para futuras intervenções, com enfoque para a promoção da saúde dos imigrantes.
Experiências Vividas de Clientes na Abordagem Centrada na Pessoa: Um Estudo Fenomenológico
Authors: Moura Tiago Bastos de , Cury Vera Engler
Published: June 2024

A psicoterapia se apresenta como uma modalidade de atenção psicológica clínica que vem adquirindo maior relevância em decorrência dos impactos psicológicos desencadeados pela pandemia da Covid-19 que incidem sobre a população, representando um espaço de cuidado à saúde mental. Esta pesquisa fenomenológica objetivou compreender intersubjetivamente vivências de clientes atendidos em Psicoterapia Centrada no Cliente, desenvolvida no contexto da Abordagem Centrada na Pessoa. A partir de encontros dialógicos individuais realizados com nove participantes, foram escritas Narrativas Compreensivas contendo elementos significativos da experiência deles, apreendidos pelo pesquisador e, posteriormente, uma Narrativa Síntese contemplando os elementos essenciais dessas vivências como um todo. Os elementos estruturantes do fenômeno que emergiram foram: 1) A relação com o psicoterapeuta proporciona ao cliente a tomada de consciência de que “eu existo nessa relação”; 2) O reconhecimento de si como uma pessoa autônoma que não precisa ser direcionada, pois é dona do seu próprio caminho e da sua história; 3) A psicoterapia é vivida como uma construção em parceria; 4) Possibilidades que se abrem na relação terapeuta-cliente ressoam para além das sessões de psicoterapia. A fenomenologia desenvolvida por Husserl e Stein e a Psicologia Humanista contribuíram para uma compreensão psicológica do fenômeno, evidenciando o papel ativo do cliente no processo terapêutico e a potencialidade transformadora da relação intersubjetiva, propiciadora de autoconhecimento e crescimento psicológico.

Published: June 2024

The purpose of this study is to investigate how entrepreneurship development initiatives affect Nigerian rural women’s ability to escape poverty. Nigeria’s poverty predicament embodies the idea of “feminization of poverty,” as a greater proportion of the impoverished are women. Furthermore, the failure of the current entrepreneurial development programs to increase women’s involvement in entrepreneurship, particularly in rural regions, is a sign that further empirical research is required. All of the female business owners in the rural Oke Ogun region of Oyo state, Nigeria, were the study’s target demographic. A structured questionnaire was employed as a means of gathering data. Because the majority of the women entrepreneurs are illiterate, the researchers individually distributed copies of the questionnaire at random to them at their local stalls in their villages. They also provided assistance in completing it out. Using SPSS version 25, the collected data were coded and subjected to an independent sample t-test analysis. The study’s conclusions showed that, among women entrepreneurs in the study area’s rural areas, programs for women entrepreneurs do not contribute to the reduction of poverty. It is recommended among other things that the government should encourage women’s entrepreneurial development, raise awareness of its existence to people at the grassroot level and make financial assistance more accessible by eliminating many of the complicated procedures associated with loans.
Atención y protección de las personas menores huérfanas y víctimas de violencia de género. Evolución y resultados
Authors: García Valverde María Dolores
Published: June 2024

En el ámbito de la violencia de género existe una serie de víctimas denominadas «invisibles» que sufren de forma directa o indirecta la violencia que se ejerce en su entorno. Por ello, el ordenamiento jurídico debe articular un conjunto de medidas para proteger a esas víctimas, que pueden quedar huérfanas en el caso de fallecimiento de la madre sometida a violencia de género.
El próximo 28 de diciembre de 2024 se cumplirán dos décadas desde la promulgación de la Ley orgánica 1/2004. Mucho ha llovido desde entonces, a pesar de la sequía que azota a nuestro país desde hace lustros. Igual ha pasado con la violencia de género.
Este trabajo tiene como fin poner de manifiesto las medidas de protección articuladas, con especial atención en la protección de las hijas e hijos huérfanos. El número de menores que se han quedado huérfanos por «culpa» de la violencia de género cada día es más amplio. En los últimos años se han dado «pasos» importantes, pero no han sido suficientes para conseguir una protección integral de esas otras víctimas de la violencia de género.

De la sangre y la palabra: realidad y poesia de El Salvador en la década presente
Authors: Escobar Francisco Andrés
Published: June 2024

La poesía tiene un nexo radical con la realidad por ser su actualización. Esta actualización ha de ser lúcida, cultivante y prospectiva de las notas de lo real. Así entendidas la realidad y la poesía, aquí se trata de ver cómo ambas se entrelazan y qué resultados alcanzan en el caso de la realidad y de la poesía salvadoreñas. En definitiva, se trata de constatar y dejar constancia de cómo una realidad sangrante se corresponde con una palabra desangrada en el marco de un tiempo y de un espacio de fuego.
Aquí se muestra la íntima correspondencia entre realidad y poesía de El Salvador, entre la sangre de sus muertos y la palabra de sus poetas. El autor constata, entonces, las direcciones fundamentales asumidas por esta poesía alzada desde la historia.

O PAGAMENTO POR SERVIÇOS AMBIENTAIS: A LEI Nº 14.119/2021 COMO FERRAMENTA DE ESTÍMULO À CONSERVAÇÃO AMBIENTAL EM ÁREAS PRIVADAS NO SUL DA BAHIA
Authors: Portella Simão Pedro Santos , Santos Dartagnan Plínio Souza , Coelho Leandro Alves
Published: June 2024

Este estudo aborda a implementação do Pagamento por Serviços Ambientais (PSA) como ferramenta de estímulo à conservação ambiental em áreas privadas no sul da Bahia, conforme a Lei nº 14.119/2021. A Mata Atlântica, uma floresta vital que cobre cerca de 15% do território brasileiro, enfrenta uma grave degradação devido à ocupação humana e à exploração de recursos naturais, especialmente na região sul da Bahia. Diante desse cenário, este trabalho visa investigar o impacto do direito ambiental nos programas de sustentabilidade, com foco nos PSA, e analisar os parâmetros legais como instrumentos de apoio jurídico para esses projetos. Os objetivos específicos do estudo incluem: analisar o direito ambiental no Brasil, compreender o funcionamento dos PSA e estudar as políticas públicas de fomento a esses programas. A metodologia envolveu uma revisão bibliográfica e análise documental das legislações pertinentes, bem como estudos de caso de programas de PSA implementados na região. Os resultados indicam que os PSA, respaldados pela Lei nº 14.119/2021, possuem grande potencial para engajar proprietários rurais na conservação ambiental, ao atribuir valor econômico aos serviços ecossistêmicos. A legislação fornece um arcabouço jurídico robusto e flexível, permitindo a adaptação dos programas às especificidades locais, maximizando seu impacto positivo na conservação da biodiversidade e recuperação de ecossistemas degradados. Conclui-se que os PSA, amparados pelo direito ambiental brasileiro, representam uma abordagem eficaz para a promoção da sustentabilidade em áreas privadas no sul da Bahia. A implementação desses programas requer, entretanto, um planejamento cuidadoso e monitoramento contínuo para assegurar que os incentivos financeiros resultem em benefícios ambientais reais e duradouros.

Late Eocene to early Oligocene productivity events in the proto-Southern Ocean and correlation to climate change
Authors: Rodrigues de Faria Gabrielle , Lazarus David , Renaudie Johan , Stammeier Jessica , Özen Volkan , Struck Ulrich
Published: June 2024

Abstract. The Eocene–Oligocene transition (EOT, ca. 40–33 Ma) marks a transformation from a largely ice-free to an icehouse climate mode that is well recorded by oxygen-stable isotopes and sea surface temperature proxies. Opening of the Southern Ocean gateways and decline in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have been considered as factors in this global environmental transformation and the growth of ice sheets in Antarctica during the Cenozoic. A more comprehensive understanding is still needed of the interplay between forcing versus response, the correlation among environmental changes, and the involved feedback mechanisms. In this study, we investigate the spatio-temporal variation in export productivity using biogenic Ba (bio-Ba) from Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) sites in the Southern Ocean, focusing on possible mechanisms that controlled them as well as the correlation of export productivity changes to changes in the global carbon cycle. We document two high export productivity events in the Southern Ocean during the late Eocene (ca. 37 and 33.5 Ma) that correlate to proposed gateway-driven changes in regional circulation and to changes in global atmospheric pCO2 levels. Our findings suggest that paleoceanographic changes following Southern Ocean gateway openings, along with more variable increases in circulation driven by episodic Antarctic ice sheet expansion, enhanced export production in the Southern Ocean from the late Eocene through early Oligocene. These factors may have played a role in episodic atmospheric carbon dioxide reduction, contributing to Antarctic glaciation during the Eocene–Oligocene transition.

Abstract. To mitigate the impact of greenhouse gas (GHG) and air pollutant emissions, it is of utmost importance to understand where emissions occur. In the real world, atmospheric pollutants are produced by various human activities from point sources (e.g. power plants and industrial facilities) but also from diffuse sources (e.g. residential activities and agriculture). However, as tracking all these single sources of emissions is practically impossible, emission inventories are typically compiled using national-level statistics by sector, which are then downscaled at the grid-cell level using spatial information. In this work, we develop high-spatial-resolution proxies for use in downscaling the national emission totals for all world countries provided by the Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research (EDGAR). In particular, in this paper, we present the latest EDGAR v8.0 GHG, which provides readily available emission data at different levels of spatial granularity, obtained from a consistently developed GHG emission database. This has been achieved through the improvement and development of high-resolution spatial proxies that allow for a more precise allocation of emissions over the globe. A key novelty of this work is the potential to analyse subnational GHG emissions over the European territory and also over the United States, China, India, and other high-emitting countries. These data not only meet the needs of atmospheric modellers but can also inform policymakers working in the field of climate change mitigation. For example, the EDGAR GHG emissions at the NUTS 2 level (Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics level 2) over Europe contribute to the development of EU cohesion policies, identifying the progress of each region towards achieving the carbon neutrality target and providing insights into the highest-emitting sectors. The data can be accessed at https://doi.org/10.2905/b54d8149-2864-4fb9-96b9-5fd3a020c224 specifically for EDGAR v8.0 (Crippa et al., 2023a) and https://doi.org/10.2905/D67EEDA8-C03E-4421-95D0-0ADC460B9658 for the subnational dataset (Crippa et al., 2023b).
Large-scale perspective on extreme near-surface winds in the central North Atlantic
Authors: Stanković Aleksa , Messori Gabriele , Pinto Joaquim G. , Caballero Rodrigo
Published: June 2024

Abstract. This study investigates the role of large-scale atmospheric processes in the development of cyclones causing extreme surface winds over the central North Atlantic basin (30 to 60° N, 10 to 50° W), focusing on the extended winter period (October–March) from 1950 until 2020 in the ERA5 reanalysis product. Extreme surface wind events are identified as footprints of spatio-temporally contiguous 10 m wind exceedances over the local 98th percentile. Cyclones that cause the top 1 % most intense wind footprints are identified. After excluding 16 (14 %) of cyclones that originated as tropical cyclones, further analysis is done on the remaining 99 extratropical cyclones (“top extremes”). These are compared to a set of cyclones yielding wind footprints with exceedances marginally above the 98th percentile (“moderate extremes”). Cyclones leading to top extremes are, from their time of cyclogenesis, characterised by the presence of pre-existing downstream cyclones, a strong polar jet, and positive upper-level potential vorticity anomalies to the north. All these features are absent or much weaker in the case of moderate extremes, implying that they play a key role in the explosive development of top extremes and in the generation of spatially extended wind footprints. There is also an indication of cyclonic Rossby wave breaking preceding the top extremes. Furthermore, analysis of the pressure tendency equation over the cyclones' evolution reveals that, although the leading contributions to surface pressure decrease vary from cyclone to cyclone, top extremes have on average a larger diabatic contribution than moderate extremes.

In multinational Kazakhstan, learning Russian as a non-native language becomes an important aspect of intercultural education and sociocultural integration. We conducted a content analysis of the textbook “Russian Language and Literature” for the 6th grade of a general education school with a non-Russian language of instruction to identify the methods of forming the components of sociocultural competence. The content analysis revealed that the materials of the textbook are focused on linguistic and grammatical aspects, with few practical exercises aimed at applying the acquired knowledge in real sociocultural situations. Therefore, attention should be paid to strengthening pragmatic, ethical and aesthetic components of sociocultural competence in learning tasks. The results of the analysis allow identifying effective strategies for developing sociocultural competence among students who study Russian as a second language. The analysis we conducted can serve as a basis for the development of additional educational materials and the updating of the Curriculum.
Regional Integration of Technical and Vocational Education and Training in ECOWAS Region
Authors: Cosme Odjo Zinsou
Published: June 2024

This article explores the current status of the TVET system in West African countries and identifies strategies for effective integration within the ECOWAS region. The study used a mixed-methods research design to investigate regional TVET system integration within ECOWAS. Data was collected from 83 participants randomly selected from Benin, Ghana, Nigeria, Senegal, and Togo. The collected data was analysed using thematic analysis. The findings show that each member state has a unique TVET system with some cross-border initiatives to collaborate and share best practices. Similarly, the results reveal that the integration of TVET systems faces multifaceted challenges rooted in the socio-economic fabric of regions and the perception of vocational training. The findings show a lack of coherence and coordination, leading to inconsistencies in training quality, limited resources, and limited mobility of graduates. To address these challenges, there is a need for customized strategies and a concerted effort from policymakers, educators, industry stakeholders, and the community to develop a robust, adaptable, and forward-looking regional TVET system for ECOWAS member states. Therefore, it is imperative to harmonize standards and develop a regionally integrated TVET model so as to improve the quality and relevance of TVET in ECOWAS. This can create a skilled workforce, promote youth employment, and foster the sustainable development of the region, like other regions that have an excellent harmonized and integrated regional TVET system within the region.

Pierre Boulez im Austausch mit Heinrich Strobel, Baden-Baden, 1950/1951
Authors: Zenck Martin
Published: June 2024

The article starts from the premises of Pierre Boulez’s works of the 1940s, in which the poems of René Char (Le soleil des eaux) and Stéphane Mallarmé (Un coup de dés) took centre stage. On closer inspection, they led to the creation of Polyphonie X. The focus of the article is on the one hand an unpublished letter in which Boulez criticises the ideologisation of Webern’s music by René Leibowitz and others, on the other hand Boulez’s close relationship with Heinrich Strobel, the head of the music department of Südwestfunk in Baden-Baden, who also commissioned Boulez to compose Polyphonie X. This work was performed in the composer’s absence on 6 October 1951, a world premiere that was plagued by tumult, and the regional press did not shy away from making anti-Semitic accusations about the work. Nevertheless, his friendship with Heinrich Strobel remained intact and even led to Boulez feeling so at home in Baden-Baden that he moved to Kapuzinerstraße in 1958. Another reason for making his home in Germany was his critique of the French cultural system headed by secretary of state André Malraux, and the treatment of the Algerians by the French government. Baden-Baden remained Boulez’s first and only permanent residence until his death on 6 January 2016: the personal, intellectual and artistic centre of this cosmopolitan.
A novel hybrid algorithm of genetic algorithm, variable neighborhood search and constraint programming for distributed flexible job shop scheduling problem
Authors: Meng Leilei , Cheng Weiyao , Zhang Biao , Zou Wenqiang , Duan Peng
Published: June 2024

With a decentral and global economy, distributed scheduling problems are getting a lot of attention. This paper addresses a distributed flexible job shop scheduling problem (DFJSP) with minimizing makespan, in which three subproblems, namely operations sequencing, factory selection and machine selection must be determined. To solve the DFJSP, a novel mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model is first developed, which can solve the small-scaled instances to optimality. Since the NP-hard characteristic of DFJSP, a hybrid algorithm (GA-VNS-CP) of genetic algorithm (GA), variable neighborhood search (VNS) and constraint programming (CP). Specifically, the GA-VNS-CP is divided into two stages. The first stage uses the hybrid meta-heuristic algorithms of GA and VNS (GA-VNS), and the VNS is designed to improve the local search ability of GA. In GA-VNS, the encoding only considers the factory selection and the operations sequencing problems, and the machine selection problem is determined by the decoding rule. Because the solution space may be limited by the decoding rule, the second stage uses the CP to extend the solution and further improve the solution. Numerical experiments based on benchmark instances are conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the MILP model, VNS, CP and GA-VNS-CP. The experimental results show effectiveness of the MILP model, VNS and CP. Moreover, the GA-VNS-CP algorithm has better performance than traditional algorithms and improves 6 current best solutions for benchmark instances.
A multi objective optimization framework for robust and resilient supply chain network design using NSGAII and MOPSO algorithms
Authors: Rezaei Ahmad Reza , Liu Qiong
Published: June 2024

Robust supply chain network design that considers supply resiliency, plays vital role in supply chain risk management in dealing with various operational and disruption risks. This study developed a novel three-stage decision approach to consider two echelons robust and resilient supply chain networks. We present a mixed-integer non-linear programming model with two objective functions. The objectives are maximization of SCN profit and maximization of resiliency, where robustness, agility, leanness, flexibility, and integrity can be defined as the five resiliency criteria. Fuzzy Simultaneous Evaluation of Criteria and Alternatives (FSECA) and Simple Multi-Attribute Rating technique (SMART) have been used to obtain the supplier resiliency and weighted importance of resilience criteria. Then, a robust optimization model is built based on uncertainty parameters considering supplier resiliency. A Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGAII) and Multi Objective Particle Swarm optimization (MOPSO) were used to solve the robust model on a large scale. parameters calibrated by the Taguchi method and five metrics of performance evaluation were considered to compare the meta-heuristic algorithms. We demonstrate the proposed NSGAII algorithm over a competing method based on five performance metrics. The research findings reveal the optimal level of robust supply chain networks based on algorithm performance and Taguchi analyses. Moreover, the results indicate that when profit increases, resilience can increase simultaneously.
The “sweet- and sour-spot” of occupational physical activity for back pain: a prospective accelerometer study among eldercare workers
Authors: Kyriakidis Stavros , Rasmussen Charlotte Lund , Søgaard Karen , Holtermann Andreas , Rasmussen Charlotte Diana Nørregaard , Gupta Nidhi
Published: June 2024

OBJECTIVES: Both high and low levels of occupational physical activity are associated with back pain. Thus, there might be a “sweet- and sour-spot” of occupational physical activity for back pain. Our aim was to investigate if there exists an occupational physical activity “sweet- (lowest risk) and sour-spot” (highest risk) for back pain.

METHODS: A total of 396 eldercare workers from 20 Danish nursing homes participated. Occupational physical activity was measured between 1–4 working days using thigh-worn accelerometry. Back pain intensity was reported monthly on a scale from 0–10 over 1-year. A zero-inflated mixed-effects model was developed regressing occupational physical activity against back pain, adjusted for confounders. The “sweet- and sour-spot” were defined as the occupational physical activity compositions (sitting, standing, light, and moderate-to-vigorous) associated with the 5% lowest and highest risk for back pain, respectively.

RESULTS: The composition associated with the lowest risk of back pain – the “sweet-spot”– consisted of 71% worktime spent sitting, 18% spent standing, 5% spent on light physical activity and 6% spent on moderate-to-vigorous physical activity. The composition associated with highest risk for back pain –the “sour-spot”– consisted of 8% worktime spent sitting, 66% spent standing, 4% spent on light physical activity, and 21% spent on moderate-to-vigorous physical activity.

CONCLUSIONS: The “sweet-spot” of occupational physical activity for back pain among eldercare workers involves more sitting and light physical activity time, while the “sour-spot” involves more standing and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity time. Research on the occupational physical activity “sweet- and sour-spot” is needed.

Published: June 2024

The differences between students - boys and girls - in the expression of indicators of humor style and antisocial
creativity, as well as in the nature of the relationship between humor style and antisocial creativity were analyzed.
The following methods were used «Behavioral features of antisocial creativity», developed by M. Ranko, adapted
by N.V. Meshkova, «Questionnaire of humor styles», developed by R. Martin, adapted by E.M. Ivanova. For data processing
we used the method of determining the differences between independent samples Mann-Whitney U-criterion and
the method of correlation analysis (Spearman's rank correlation coefficient).
The study revealed the following significant differences between boys and girls: 1) in the expression of humor
styles: aggressive humor style prevails in boys compared to girls; 2) in the expression of components of antisocial creativity:
indicators of inflicting harm prevail in boys. Along with this, reliable correlations between the indicators of humor
styles and antisocial creativity were determined: in young men significant positive moderate correlations of affiliative
style of humor with lying, as well as with the integral indicator of antisocial creativity, between self-deprecating style
of humor and lying were found; in girls a number of positive moderate correlations of aggressive style of humor with all
indicators of antisocial creativity were found.
The Relationship Between Teacher-Student Rapport, Stroke and English as a Foreign-Language Learners’ Willingness to Communicate: The Case of Saudi EFL Female University Students
Authors: Al Thowaibi Lama
Published: June 2024

EFL learners must deal in communicative practices to master the target language. This study examines EFL students’ willingness to communicate (WTC), due to its absolute impact on their communication. This is a quantitative study that attempts to find the relationship between Saudi EFL learners’ WTC, teacher-student rapport and teacher stroke. The 130 Saudi female students from the College of Business Administration at Taif University, enrolled in English for academic purposes, took part by answering three questionnaires. The data were analysed by Spearman-Rho correlation, using SPSS software. The result was a significant positive correlation between 1) Saudi EFL learners’ WTC and teacher-student rapport, 2) stroke and Saudi EFL learners’ WTC and 3) teacher-student rapport and stroke. This study will have a sound effect on helping educators understand the importance of building good teacher-student rapport and providing a positive teacher stroke for enhancing Saudi EFL learners’ WTC in the classroom.

Authors: Ivanova Aneliya , Ibryamova Elitsa
Published: June 2024

As social networks have evolved beyond their original purpose, and have proven to be a successful platform even for business and politics, it was only natural for the educational process to find its place in this virtual realm. As early as 2019, Facebook introduced the Social Learning mode, which provided excellent opportunities for publishing and structuring educational content within closed groups, taking the utilization of this social network to a new level in the learning process. It can hardly be disputed that social networks have the potential to offer rich access to a variety of educational resources, but recently, there has been a persistent migration of students from the digital generation to platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, where digital content in the form of small portions of visual and video information circulates. This trend leads to the need for a fresh interpretation of the concept of micro-learning and micro-content in the context of social networks, as well as the need to explore learners' attitudes towards such type of learning.

Published: June 2024

Digitalization of the education system in Kazakhstan, as well as in other countries, is a global trend in education development that aims to expand access, improve quality, and increase efficiency. Despite some similarities in the digitalization process with other countries, Kazakhstan has unique challenges related to unequal access and quality control measures. The international project HIEDTEC, which was implemented from 2018 – 2022 with the support of the EU Erasmus+ program, had a significant influence and importance. The project accomplished five major tasks, which will be highlighted in this report. However, problems such as unequal access, teacher training, quality control of educational content, and the adequacy of quality control measures to ensure accurate and effective content still exist. This report will present a forecast for the development of education through digital transformation.

Authors: Voinohovska Valentina , Asenov Denis
Published: June 2024

Young people are the future of society and agents for social change. That is why it is so crucial to provide education that not only equips them with knowledge and skills but also changes their attitudes and behaviour towards sustainable development. The need for education that supports a more sustainable world has become more evident as it can enhance people’s lives and contribute to sustainable development. STEM education is described as an interdisciplinary approach to learning in which students use science, technology, engineering, and mathematics in situations that establish links between school, community, work, and the global enterprise, thus allowing the growth of STEM. The hands-on, interactive, and visualization-based learning experience that 3D technologies provide helps students take a more active approach to the academic material that they are studying. Students have access to 3D models that not only allow them to go more deeply into each subject but also make it much easier for them to retain their ideas.
Potential Applications of Blockchain Technology in Education
Authors: Minchev Andrian , Stoykova Vanya
Published: June 2024

Blockchain is a particularly promising technology that is inherently a decentralized, secure and public digital ledger that can be used to create and manage digital tokens. They are carriers of value and are stored on the blockchain. Blockchain technology ensures that tokens are secure and tamper-proof. Non transferable tokens, also called “soulbond” tokens, are gaining popularity as a way to authenticate ownership. Originally created to convey information in the field of cryptocurrencies, they could find other use-cases as well. The purpose of the report is to examine the possibilities of using blockchain technology in education, including the benefits and problems that could arise. Specific examples are presented, as well as a proposal for the application of non fungible tokens (NFT) for certifying the results and achievements of students during their studies in the learning system of Trakia electronic University (TreU).

Published: June 2024

The 21st century has revolutionized education with technology, but challenges such as teachers’ resistance, students’ comprehension issues, effective implementation, and teacher training persist. This study employs a qualitative content analysis to document and analyze data from 18 research studies on blended project-based learning models. It aims to identify the stages, research methods, subject areas, and educational levels that most frequently implement this model. Data was col-lected from Google Scholar, Scopus, and ERIC databases over the past five years (2019-2023). Findings reveal that 7 out of 18 journals discuss blended project-based learning models with sim-ilar syntax. Key findings include: (i) the combination of face-to-face and online learning enhances effectiveness; (ii) quasi-experimental methods are prevalent, particularly in biology and higher education; and (iii) blended project-based learning effectively improves 21st century skills, in-cluding critical thinking (mean effect size 1.65), creativity (mean effect size 1.19), and prob-lem-solving (mean effect size 1.44), resulting in an overall mean effect size of 1.42.
