Authors: Cuadros-Sanabria Ludis Marcela , Castellanos Gonzalez Leonides , Rozo-García Carmen Omaira
Published: July 2024

La lechuga es una hortaliza de hojas muy propensa a enfermedades causadas por hongos fitopatógenos, por lo cual es necesario buscar alternativas que permitan evitar las aplicaciones químicas entre las cuales está el hongo antagonista Trichoderma spp. El objetivo de esta investigación fue evaluar el efecto bioestimulante y biocontrolador de una cepa local de Trichoderma, denominada T3 bajo tres concentraciones diferentes comparadas con una cepa comercial y un control. Se estableció un experimento con 5 tratamientos y 5 réplicas sobre un diseño en bloques completamente aleatorizado, donde se midieron variables morfológicas y fisiológicas, y se realizaron monitoreos de las variables de las enfermedades; incidencia, severidad y el Área Bajo la Curva del Progreso de la Enfermedad (ABCPE) durante el desarrollo del cultivo. Los resultados obtenidos evidenciaron como mejor tratamiento la concentración alta de la cepa local a 5x108 UFC/m2, seguida de una concentración media, de 1x108 UFC/ m2, las cuales promovieron un aumento en el desarrollo de las plantas, así como un bajo porcentaje de enfermedades fúngicas, que no difirió de la cepa comercial. Se verifica que la cepa local de Trichoderma, T3, es buen biocontrolador para enfermedades fúngicas foliares, así como bioestimulante y que la concentración de la aplicación del antagonista influye en su eficacia.

En Colombia según la Ley 1413 de 2010 se considera como economía del cuidado a todas aquellas actividades de trabajo doméstico y del cuidado no remunerado que son realizados en el interior del hogar; estas actividades contribuyen al crecimiento económico del País dado que permite el mantenimiento de la fuerza de trabajo. Ahora bien, la presente investigación tiene como objetivo determinar la incidencia de las actividades de la economía del cuidado sobre la empleabilidad de las mujeres, esto en el marco del COVID-19. La investigación emplea datos secundarios del Departamento Administrativo Nacional de Estadística (DANE) sección de la Gran Encuesta Integrada de Hogares (GEIH) para los años 2019-2020, la metodología empleada en esta investigación es cuantitativa de alcance correlacional, para lo cual se hace uso de un modelo econométrico estimado para los años en mención. Entre los principales resultados se encuentra que las características propias de las mujeres como el nivel educativo y la experiencia potencial que poseen son de suma importancia en la empleabilidad de estas. Por otra parte, en el marco del COVID-19, se observó que las variables de la economía del cuidado tuvieron una mayor incidencia negativa en la variable dependiente, es decir, sobre la probabilidad de que una mujer se encuentre ocupada o no en el año 2020 en comparación con el 2019.

Published: July 2024

El presente trabajo de investigación respondió a las necesidades manifiestas en diferentes espacio académicos, que son de visualización publica, los deficientes desempeños en pruebas nacionales e internacionales en los aspectos de conocimiento matemático; por lo cual se hace necesario tratar de analizar los procesos de enseñanza aprendizaje y más específicamente en la construcción del pensamiento matemático; desde una visión innovadora y ágil que rompiera los esquemas de aprendizaje tradicionales de repetición de algoritmos e implementación de fórmulas. Presentando como herramienta de apropiación de conocimiento el concepto del andamiaje como una forma social de aprender y capturar conocimientos, habilidades y capacidades matemáticas. En los diferentes momentos educativos se observa con preocupación esta debilidad manifiesta, pero se centró la investigación en los docentes que imparten conocimientos a los estudiantes de primeros semestres de ingenierías de la Universidad Francisco de Paula Santander, más específicamente aquellos que cursaban la asignatura de Calculo I o Cálculo integral. Teniendo en cuenta como objetivo principal de la investigación propender por la formulación de una estrategia pedagógica basada en el andamiaje como herramienta para la construcción del conocimiento matemático en la educación superior en los estudiantes de cálculo diferencial de la Universidad Francisco de Paula Santander en Cúcuta; para este logro se deben reconocer y establecer las proximidades teóricas que se implementan en los espacios formativos universitarios, de igual manera se deben identificar las dimensiones abordadas por los docentes informantes y basados en esos insumos plantear una estrategia pedagógica dentro del marco de la teoría del andamiaje. La investigación se desarrolló bajo un enfoque cuantitativo, de nivel de investigación descriptiva y de diseño cuasi experimenta, con una metodología de tipo transeccional o transversal que consto de cuatro fases, la inicial que fue la selección del grupo de estudio, la ejecución del estudio que se realizó a través de encuestas y entrevistas estructuradas: una tercera fase que se enfocó en el análisis de los resultados obtenidos y una última fase, donde se generaron la respectivas resultados. Como conclusiones se pueden dilucidar que se definieron, caracterizaron y ponderaron las dimensiones más importantes desde la óptica de los docentes dentro del proceso de enseñanza aprendizaje del pensamiento matemático y de igual manera se plantearon algunas sub divisiones que posteriormente serán tratadas como andamios para la construcción del pensamiento matemático.

Authors: Agwu E ,   Department of Microbiology and Immunology, Faculty of Biomedical Sciences, Kampala International University, Box 71, Bushenyi, Uganda.
Published: July 2024

Background: Although cutting edge technologies have advanced overall knowledge of microbial infections, what microorganisms will do when challenged with different surface-active agents is still incompletely understood, in resource-limited settings. Objective: This study was therefore designed to determine the idiosyncratic in-vitro response of yeast strains, challenged with selected routine antifungal agents used for routine prophylactic management of HIV infected Methods: A total of 304 (235 females and 69 males) patients with different conditions were recruited and oral lesion samples were collected and analyzed using standard phenotypic methods. The MIC) of the isolates were determined by the E-test stable agar gradient method (AB BIODISK, Solna, Sweden) Results: All Candida albicans strains were sensitive to the azoles except in Masaka District where C albicans showed a sensitive-dose dependent MIC of (0.14 µg/ml) to Itraconazole. District of isolation of yeast strains significantly (p<0.05) impacted on MIC results as different MIC values were obtained after testing similar yeast strains from different districts against the same anti-fungal agents. Thus, intra-species variations in average MIC values were noted among the yeast strains from different Districts. Itraconazoles tested against C. albicans showed varying MICs values of 0.05 µg/ml in Mbarara District; 0.03 µg/ml in Rukungiri District and 0.14 µg/ml in Masaka District. Fluconazole tested against C. albicans also showed varying MICs of 0.5 in Mbarara District; 0.99 µg/ml in Rukungiri District and 0.14 µg/ml in Masaka District. Conclusion: Observed intra-species variations in average MIC values noted among the yeast strains from different Districts in the same region of the country signifies idiosyncrasy in yeast response to antifungal agents used in the management of yeast infections in a given locality. Sustained yeast MIC surveillance as a panacea to impact treatment outcome is recommended

Background: Pregnancy-related asymptomatic bacteriuria remains a potential health danger to women of reproductive age because of the possible emergence of urinary tract infections during pregnancy. Surveillance will generate data for effective intervention to avert the devastating health impact of urinary tract infection in pregnancy, especially in a resource-limited setting. Objective: This study was designed to assess pregnancy-related asymptomatic bacteriuria as potential pathogens for urinary tract infections. at Kampala International University Teaching Hospital, Bushenyi, Uganda. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 362 aseptically collected midstream urine specimens of pregnant mothers were analyzed using standard bacteriological methods for significant bacteria in urine, and antibacterial sensitivity of isolates recovered from mid-stream urine samples of consenting participants. Structured questionnaires were used to obtain sociodemographic, clinical, and obstetric data. Data were analyzed descriptively using STATA 14.2 Results: The overall prevalence of ASB among the studied pregnant women attending ANC clinic at KIU-TH was 15.5% and out of this 15.5% prevalence, 51.8% were E.coli, 19.6% were Staph aureus 17.9% were Klebsiella, 8.9% were Pseudomonas while 1.8% were Proteus species). Most of the isolates were sensitive to Amikacin, Imipenem, Gentamicin, and Levofloxacin. The factors that were significantly associated with ASB were gravidity (Gravida 1 or prime gravidas) and WOA of the 1st trimester and 3rd trimester. Prevalence of ASB varied directly with gravidity (p-value=0.015, OR = 2.1, 95% CI =1.15-3.93). Thus pregnant women with gestation of 1-12 weeks were more likely to develop ASB compared to those of 13-28 weeks of pregnancy (OR=4.0, 95% CI=1.64-9.83). Conclusions The study found that 15.5% of pregnant women attending ANC clinic at KIU-TH had asymptomatic bacteriuria mostly during the 1st or 3rd trimester and 51.8% of the bacteria were Escherichia coli followed by 19.6% Staphylococcus and other enteric bacteria.

Authors: Mwendwa Philip K.
Published: July 2024

Science and technology parks are major investments that are majorly focused on realizing faster economic growth and innovation. The parks carry great prospects for regional economic diversification. However, over the years, Science and technology parks have encountered challenges that call for proactive management, sound policies and innovativeness. This paper used the Drivers, Pressures, State, Impacts and Response (DPSIR) approach to determine how Africa can leverage science and technology parks to accelerate growth. The study used secondary data from books, scholarly journals and technical reports. After the published sources were collected, an analytical framework was developed with three categories including drivers, pressures and impacts. The results of the study indicate that the main drivers of science and technology parks development are government policy, academic research, urge by countries to keep pace with technology and public private partnerships. It was also established that the parks had impacts such as promoting economic development and sustainability in urban growth as well as improving knowledge transfer from universities to industry. Governments have responded by coming up with policies that support the establishment of these cities. The study recommends that governments and other stakeholders need to invest more in science and technology parks through policies and public private partnerships to accelerate growth in Africa.

Authors: Barchok Festus K. , Mabwoga Samson O. , Kirui Stella
Published: July 2024

Land cover change is described as the dynamic change in the terrestrial surface of the earth induced by human activities. Changes in land cover include urbanization, agricultural activities, and increased mining activities/quarrying activities which result in alteration of initial land surface status. Quarrying operations have been reported to cause alteration in vegetation cover and landscape, open cast methods used in stone mining lead to the destruction of land resources including denudation of vegetation cover, loss of soil fertility and soil erosion. Remote sensing and Geographical Information System (GIS) techniques were used to assess land cover changes due to stone mining in the study area. Satellite images covering the study area were downloaded from United States Geographical (USGS) Earth Explorer for the four epochs 1985, 1995, 2010 and 2022 for analysis. Spatial analysis of land cover changes was conducted by processing and analysis of remotely sensed images from Landsat and Sentinel 2 satellite data. Supervised classification was performed on the images into vegetation and non-vegetation cover classes using environmental visualization software, version 5.3. Findings were presented descriptively in tables, charts, graphs and textual forms. The study found that the non-vegetation cover class had intensified by 18.70% between the years 1985 and 1995. There was an increase in vegetation cover class between the years 1995 and 2010 by 37.81 %. Between the year 2010 and 2022, vegetation cover was reduced by 18.24 %. The study concluded that quarrying activities have led to reduced land cover over time resulting in negative environmental outcomes such as land degradation and reduced aesthetic value in the study area.

Authors: Balongo Caleb V.
Published: July 2024

Agricultural activities contribute heavily on climate change thus, its being challenged to adapt to its effects which involves the application of integrating socio-economic and ecological policies for greater resilience. Through cooperatives and innovations, promotion of agroecology which is the application of the principle of ecology in agricultural production is possible as ecology and agriculture are inter-dependent for global food production. Scientists are working in conjunction with farmers and other stakeholders to get solutions for challenges experienced locally instead of external and non-appropriate solution imposed to the locality. To enhance the resilience of farming system to climate change and improving the flow of ecosystem farmers are being encouraged to form cooperative societies since agricultural cooperatives have great influence on agricultural activities and rural transformation. As a social enterprise, cooperatives are autonomous and voluntary associations for persons united to meet a common social-economic and cultural wants. As instruments, they support small-scale farmers leading to poverty alleviation and food security and could be linked inextricably to protection of ecology by safeguarding environmental domains through appropriate education and technology. Still they are invaluable and efficient for improving members social welfare at the same time combating factors that degrade forested areas that may lead to poverty. The study employs an in-depth desk review based on secondary sources complemented with case studies from informant interviews from farmers in rural Kenya. The conclusion of the study is that agricultural cooperative acts as an umbrella whereby the chain-link of production system like creation of production chains, inclusivity of the marginalized groups in a productive system, self-employment, and local markets vitalization are all enhanced through entrepreneurial affairs in the society.

Authors: Komen Paul K. , Ongínjo Jackline A.
Published: July 2024

With the fast digitization of the world, ICT is taking a central role in ECDE and provides many learning opportunities. This study aimed to examine parental involvement in ICT-based ECDE attainment. The research objectives used for this study are to investigate the extent to which parents provide ICT tools for learning in ECDE programs in Kenya and to assess the level of parental involvement in assisting children with ICT-based learning in ECDE programs in Kenya. This research utilized existing literature from peer-reviewed academic journals. The researchers employed three search terms: ' parental involvement,' 'challenges,' and 'ICT-based early childhood education. The targeted journals included 9,000 articles. Articles that did not address the search terms were excluded. The final sample for review comprised only four scholarly articles. Content analysis based on Marcus's theory is used in the study, which shows that parents face some difficulties when using the ICT-based ECDE, significantly less educated parents. The study established that several parental involvement challenges exist in ICT. The study concluded that these challenges can be overcome by parental empowerment and multi-sectoral tools, which can be used to close the technology gaps and improve the ECDE quality. The paper suggests policy recommendations for the government, parents, teachers, policymakers, and institutional managers. This study reveals a vital part of parental engagement in forming the children's educational experiences and preparing them for the digital age, thus stressing the need to overcome the parental challenges to improve the ECDE effectiveness of ICT.
Exploring Urban Green Space Visitation Patterns in Informal Settlement. A Case of Dandora, Nairobi County
Authors: Namalwa Silva M. , Omollo Maurice , Konana Charity
Published: July 2024

The utilization and visitation patterns of Urban Green Spaces (UGS) by users and visitors are inextricably tied to the satisfaction and willingness derived from these spaces. In essence, the positive experiences and levels of satisfaction individuals garner from UGS significantly influence their patterns of usage and frequency of visits. However, few details of this relationship have been studied on matters UGS in Sub-Saharan Africa. This study investigates the relationship between demographic characteristics and visitation patterns of residents to UGS in slum dwelling areas using Dandora as case study. Survey research design was adopted as a method of investigation using a sample frame of 100. Stratified and simple random sampling technique was used in issuing the household questionnaires.  The demographic information analysis reveals a gender-balanced respondent pool, with a predominant youth population thirty to forty years (30-40 years old), largely educated up to secondary level, and primarily self-employed. The majority of respondents have been residents for one to ten years (1-10 years), mainly in Phase two (II) and four (IV) of Dandora. A significant proportion eighty-four percent (84%) of respondents visit UGS, citing weekly visits forty-one percent (41%) and daily visits thirty-four percent (34%) as the most common frequencies. In contrast, sixteen percent 16% do not visit UGS primarily due to concerns about insecurity and other reasons. The study employs a multinomial regression model to examine the relationship between socio-demographic characteristics and frequency of UGS visitation. The results indicate a significant relationship, with place of residence being a key factor influencing visitation frequency. Specifically, residents in Phase II show a significant impact on daily and weekly visitation, while residents in Phase III and IV influence monthly visitation. The findings suggest that socio-demographic factors especially place of residence where there are accessible UGS and also resident’s occupation, play a crucial role in influencing residents' UGS visitation patterns. Understanding these relationships can inform urban planning strategies to enhance accessibility and engagement with green spaces in Dandora.
Evaluation of Species Diversity and Ecological Functions of the Anuran Species in Kingwal Swamp, a Highland Wetland of Kenya
Authors: Kabanze Joseph M.
Published: July 2024

Class amphibian comprises of bi-phasic life mode organisms sensitive to environmental changes. Anurans being among the class, are considered good indicators of functioning and non-functioning ecosystems (habitat quality). Globally, there has been a decline in anuran populations due to anthropogenic and abiotic factors, which include agricultural activities, wetland degradation, habitat loss, pollution, and climate change. Wetlands are considered the most preferable microhabitats as breeding sites for anurans, therefore surveys in tropical wetlands to understand anuran diversity and distribution patterns are desirable and justified for implementation of effective conservation actions. The aim of the study was to evaluate the biodiversity and functional concordance of anuran species in Kingwal Swamp, one of Kenya’s least studied swamps. Through the use of visual encounters and pitfall traps with an x-drift fence, data was gathered in the wet season, morning and evening sampling between April and June 2023 from six sites along the swamp. A total of 664 individuals were recorded, from 15 different anurans belonging to seven different genera and seven families. Ptychadena was the most abundant family, while Hoplobatrachus was the least. The swamp is diverse (H’= 2.271, D = 0.8626) in anuran species with low dominance (0.1374), but evenly distributed (E = 0.6457). Most species encountered preferred insects and frogs in their diet, terrestrial and aquatic microhabitats, specifically stagnant water, and were predominately ground/wet terrestrial dwellers breeding during wet season, and of least concern. The structural complexity of microhabitats along the swamp provided diverse niches and varieties of ways to explore environmental resources, thus species biodiversity is a function of habitat quality and diversity. However, due to increased disturbances, the study recommends nature-based non-governmental organizations and conservationists to engage local people in wetland protection to curb threats for the survival of anurans in Kenya.

Pensar la Producción de Salud desde el Trabajo Social: Intersecciones entre Rol Profesional y la Salud Colectiva.
Authors: Burwiel Juan Pablo , Maldonado Mariana , Terreno Belén
Published: July 2024

Las experiencias del Trabajo Social en el campo de la salud vienen aportando elementos que contribuyen a la problematización de aquellas prácticas que refuerzan el reduccionismo biomédico, generando propuestas creativas para reflexionar en torno el trabajo en salud. Esto nos plantea el desafío de seguir ampliando el arco de categorías, posicionamientos y perspectivas que naveguen las intersecciones entre las Ciencias Sociales, el Trabajo Social y el campo de la salud. En este sentido la Salud Colectiva, como movimiento de “apertura a paradigmas éticos que instalen formas no hegemónicas de producir y concebir el proceso de salud-enfermedad-cuidado” (Paim, 2021), nos parece una herramienta necesaria. Los aportes conceptuales y epistemológicos de la Salud Colectiva resultan cruciales en escenarios instituyentes, transformadores o de transición en el campo sanitario. Representan un cuerpo de saberes y prácticas con experiencias en el campo de la gestión pública, de la investigación y la práctica asistencial. Por lo tanto, el artículo pretende constituirse como un insumo para el análisis y la reflexión disciplinar junto a la posibilidad de fortalecer la relación teórico-práctica del trabajo social en salud. Asimismo, presenta la oportunidad de ofrecer una síntesis que produzca nuevas estrategias para los procesos de intervención profesional en relación a la producción de salud.

An Inventory Model with Partial Backlog for Declining Items with Varying Selling and Purchasing Prices
Authors: Kumar Dr. Ravendra
Published: July 2024

Selling price and purchase cost typically vary with economic conditions in today’s competitive markets. For a business to be profitable, both the selling price and the purchasing cost are essential. As a result, I expand the inventory model Teng and Yang (2004) established in this study to incorporate the ability for both the selling price and the purchasing cost to fluctuate over the course of a defined time horizon between replenishment cycles. The goal is to determine the best pricing strategy and replenishment schedule in order to maximise profit. The existence, uniqueness, and global optimality of the suggested solution are guaranteed by the conditions that lead to a maximising solution. Some theoretical results and an effective approach for solving the problem are offered. Finally,numerical examples for illustration and sensitivity analysis for managerial decision making arealso performed.

Authors: Khanthong Phaksachiphon , Jayathavaj Vadhana , Jitjum Sarinrat
Published: July 2024

This retrospective survey examines drug use patterns in COVID-19 patients from 2021 to 2022 with 81 participants, who reported 13 symptoms between March and May 2023. Application of the k-means clustering method led to identification of three distinct symptom severities, severe (Cluster I), moderate (Cluster II), and mild (Cluster III), with respective average scores of 3.67±0.87, 3.20±0.98, and 1.87±0.81. In Clusters I and II, myalgia was the most notable symptom, while in Cluster III, sore throat was predominant. On average, individuals in Clusters I–III used 2.00–2.34 types of drugs, with use of a single drug having the highest frequency. Notably, Andrographis paniculata capsules were highly utilized across all clusters (51.85%), while favipiravir was less often used. Furthermore, one in five participants in the combined Clusters I and II employed substantial pharmaceutical interventions for COVID-19 treatment, whereas in Cluster III, this use remained below 10%. This research provides valuable insights into drug use patterns for managing COVID-19. The findings offer crucial information about symptoms from each cluster, tailoring treatment approaches to specific symptom severity clusters as well as overlapping medications.

Characterizing the training process simply as the imparting of knowledge, skills and habits to teenagers may result in a one-sided approach to the problem. The main task is for the teacher to be able to explain with a deep understanding of the importance of acquiring knowledge in the learning process. On this basis, the formation and development of motives corresponding to the goals of training and education will be built on a real basis. The effectiveness of training depends on how it is organized. In the training process, there are special conditions for the acquisition of knowledge, skills and habits. It is on such a basis that the influence of other types of activities on the mental development of the student is determined and analyzed.
CORRECTION OF SPEECH DISORDERS DURING CEREBRAL PALSY
Authors: Аslаnovа Səbinə
Published: July 2024

Speech disorders occupy an important place in the complex structure of disorders in children with cerebral palsy. The characteristics of speech disorders and the degree of their severity depend primarily on the localization and severity of brain damage. Speech disorders during cerebral palsy are not only related to the damage of certain structures of the brain, but also to the later formation or non-development of parts of the cerebral cortex that are important in speech and mental activity. The retardation in the development of speech in cerebral palsy is also associated with the limitation of the scope of knowledge and ideas about the environment, the inadequacy of material and practical activities and social relations. Parental mistakes made by parents have a negative impact on speech development. Often, parents overprotect the child, try to do too much for him, anticipate all his wishes or fulfill them in response to a gesture or look. At the same time, the child does not need verbal communication. In such cases, the child is deprived of speech communication, which is an important condition for the development of speech.
Backyard farming of tilapia using a biofloc-based culture system
Authors: Caipang Christopher Marlowe , Avillanosa Arlene
Published: July 2024

The pressures brought about by the increase in human population resulted in the rapid expansion of the food production industries including aquaculture to provide the nutritional requirements of the growing population. As aquaculture operations intensify, there is also an urgent need to preserve the environment; hence, all activities must be carried out in a sustainable way. The use of the biofloc technology (BFT) in aquaculture addresses these issues on restrictions on the usage of water and land as well as matters concerning sustainability of the production. BFT is a technique that maintains optimum water quality in the aquaculture system by manipulating the carbon and nitrogen ratios in the system. This optimum ratio favors the growth of heterotrophic bacteria that contribute in maintaining good water quality and at the same time provide sources of natural food for the cultured fish or crustaceans. In this review, the mechanisms of the biofloc technology particularly in the production of tilapia in freshwater systems are discussed. Moreover, some of the intrinsic advantages of this technology are highlighted in the context of developing and supporting backyard aquaculture of freshwater tilapias as a means of providing the food demands of the population in rural communities and as source of income for the marginalized small-scale fish farmers.

Autodeterminación y autonomía de la voluntad, consideraciones iusfilosóficas sobre la libertad y la reducción de su conceptualización
Authors: Rocha Martín
Published: July 2024

El presente artículo quiere ser manifestación de diversas reflexiones que desde el ámbito de la Filosofía del Derecho pueden realizarse respecto a nociones clave para el pensamiento jurídico, ya sea en el Derecho privado, principalmente el civil, como en el político, por ejemplo, para ello se procura conceptualizar y diferenciar términos tales como la libertad, la autodeterminación y la autonomía. Se estima que el primero de ellos se encuentra a partir de la modernidad bastante implícito en la autonomía y para ello se ha querido procurar entenderlo en base a la elección y la autodeterminación ya que al confundirse pierde sustantividad en relación con el lugar clave que ocupa para entender la riqueza del concepto de persona.
La controversia entre Ortega y Heidegger sobre construir y habitar, clave para la comprensión de tres tesis orteguianas
Authors: González Fernádez Enrique
Published: July 2024

El año 1951, Heidegger y Ortega dieron unas conferencias en Alemania: según Heidegger, el habitar precede en el hombre al construir, mientras que para Ortega el construir precede al habitar porque cada persona necesita de la cultura, y así humaniza o salva su circunstancia para poder habitarla. Con su conferencia, comprendemos mejor la primera tesis orteguiana: Yo soy yo y mi circunstancia, y si no la salvo a ella no me salvo yo. Sobre la segunda (el hombre no tiene naturaleza, sino que tiene historia): un animal está determinado por la naturaleza invariable de su especie; le basta el instinto; en cambio, el hombre vive no en la naturaleza, sino más allá de ella, haciéndola habitable con su historia técnica y cultural. El animal, cuando no puede ejercer la actividad de su repertorio elemental y natural, no hace nada más y se deja morir. La persona construye para vivir; hace una historia preternatural. Y esto nos da la clave para la tercera tesis orteguiana: la cultura es lo que el hombre añade a su natura.

The everyday lives of workers in the Ukrainian SSR in the 1920s and early 1930s
Authors: Liubavskyi Roman
Published: July 2024

The Soviet government aimed to profoundly transform the styles and structures of people’s everyday lives, encompassing housing, leisure, and work. Particularly ambitious projects were conceived and executed during the 1920s and 1930s. Workers were at the forefront of Soviet social policy, with the Bolshevik Communist Party depicted in Soviet discourse as the avant-garde of the proletariat, primarily serving the interests of the working class. Did these ideas correspond to practice, and at what cost were they realized? This will be discussed in the module by historian Roman Liubavskyi.
Велика міграція кінця XIX – початку XX століття: особистий досвід східноєвропейських мігрантів у фольклорі і спогадах
Authors: Москалець Владислава
Published: July 2024

Кінець XIX - початок ХХ століття відомий як періодом масової міграції з Європи до інших континентів, коли понад 55 мільйонів людей змінили своє місце проживання. Зокрема цей процес захопив Російську та Австро-Угорській імперії, де складне економічне становище, брак промислу, переслідування підштовхували різні групи населення до виїзду. Серед таких груп були як українські і польські селяни, так і містечкові євреї – дрібні ремісники або робітники. Напрямками руху для них найчастіше ставали США, Канада, Аргентина, Бразилія, які потребували робочої сили на фабриках чи фермах. Історикиня Владислава Москалець у цьому модулі фокусується на особистих досвідах східноєвропейських мігрантів, збережених у фольклорі та спогадах.
Наукове Товариство імені Шевченка
Authors: Роде Мартін
Published: July 2024

Із 1873 року Товариство імені Шевченка існувало як адміністративна одиниця спілчанської друкарні. У 1892 році стало науковим товариством, яке швидко інтегрувалося у західно- та центральноєвропейський науковий простір і сформувалося як регіональний і загальнонаціональний науковий центр під проводом Михайла Грушевського. У міжвоєнний період Товариство функціонувало на регіональному рівні, залишаючись при цьому головним чинником розвитку української культури у Львові і центром, довкола якого гуртувалися вчені загальноукраїнського масштабу. У 1939 році після радянської окупації Львова Товариство припинило свою діяльність, проте у часи німецької окупації на деякий час відновило свою роботу.

Листопад 1918 року вписаний в український та польський героїчний наративи, де боротьба за Львів є частиною змагань за незалежність. Проголошення Західноукраїнської Народної Республіки стало вимушеним кроком, що мав не допустити виключної претензії поляків на Східну Галичину та заявити присутність українців на міжнародній арені.

Building Children's Social Skills Through Picture Story Books
Authors: Sinamo Junita , Panjaitan Lestari Sri Wahyuni , Butar Butar Mei Lastri E.F.
Published: July 2024

This research explains the role of picture books in developing children's social skills. Through a careful literature review, this research identified several key aspects, ranging from understanding social skills to practical strategies for incorporating picture books into children's education. Reading picture books can develop children's social skills such as empathy, critical thinking skills, communication, cooperation and tolerance. Picture books allow children to feel like they will act out emotions as characters in the story., understand the plot of the story, identify problems and find solutions, and learn about cooperation and respecting differences. Practical strategies such as reading aloud, using stories as starting points for conversations,  and using stories as examples to resolve conflicts can help maximize the benefits of  picture books for children's learning. Incorporating picture books into a child's  education helps children develop social skills that are important for life success while  providing a fun and meaningful learning experience for early childhood.
