Aesthetics and Politics of Poetry written in Tribal Languages of Kerala
Authors: R Chandrabose
Published: December 2021

Poems written in Tribal languages are a notable presence in contemporary Malayalam poetry. As there is no script for those endangered tribal languages, they are written in Malayalam script. They are being translated into Malayalam. These poems become a declaration of the aboriginal community and of the aesthetics that obscure mainstream aesthetic concept. Tribal communities in Kerala lives in the forest areas of Idukki, Wayanad, Palakkad, Kasaragod, Trissur, Cochin, Trivandrum and Kollam districts. These marginalized people are facing a crisis of survival. The neglect of the main stream society and the Government and the destruction of the habitat have made their lives miserable. Indigenous tribal languages are endangered. It is in this context that the new generation of educated Adivasis seek to document their survival problem through poetry in the tribal language itself. Poems are written in tribal languages such as Irula, Rawla, Malavettuva, Paniya, Mavila and Muthuvan appearing in social media and in print and book form, they symbolize a different sensibility. The aim of this paper is to findout the political attitudes, aesthetic concepts and features of languages of the aboriginal community by studying these poems.
Student Perception of Classroom Climate Scale: Adaptation and Validation in Turkish
Authors: CENGEL Meltem , YILMAZ ÖZELÇİ Serap , TOTAN Tarık
Published: December 2021

Classroom climate is a major contributor to student behavior and learning, and serves as an indicator of overall school performance. Currently, researchers examining classroom climate have a choice between two models of the Student Personal Perception of Classroom Climate (SPPCC) scale. International adoptationsof the SPPCC scale alternate between the four factor and the six factor dimensional. This research assesses the psychometric properties found in the SPPCC scale in a Turkish classroom context using the four factor model. Data analysis has been conducted on 3 different samples (425, 405, 502) from 12 different schools, whose students’ aged 10 to 15.
Suomesta ja maailmalta. Yrjö Niiniluoto ja hänen kirjallinen tuotantonsa
Authors: Riikonen H.K.
Published: December 2021

Yrjö Niiniluodon (1900-1961) toiminta on merkittävä luku suomalaisen lehdistön ja esseistiikan historiaa. Suoritettuaan loppututkinnon germaaninen filologia pääaineenaan Niiniluoto tuli Helsingin Sanomien palvelukseen toimittajana. Lehden Genèven kirjeenvaihtajana hän toimi 1926-1928 raportoiden Kansainliiton kokouksista; Englannin kirjeenvaihtajana hän oli 1933-1936. Lehden omistajan ja päätoimittajan Eljas Erkon tultua ulkoministeriksi Niiniluoto nimitettiin päätoimittajaksi vuoden 1938 lopulla. Tässä tehtävässä hän toimi Etelä-Afrikassa tapahtuneeseen kuolemaansa saakka. Voimakastahtoisen Eljas Erkon rinnalla Niiniluoto tasapainoisena ja työlleen täysin omistautuneena säilytti jatkuvasti työnantajansa luottamuksen.Ulkomaan reportterina Niiniluoto oli tavattoman monipuolinen: hän kirjoitti yhtä lailla politiikasta, taloudesta, merenkulusta, kirjallisuudesta, urheilusta, seurapiiritapahtumista ja kuninkaallisista seremonioista. Matkoiltaan hän kirjoitti reportaasisarjoja useista maista. Niiniluodon kirjallisen tuotannon keskiössä ovat hänen viisi esseekokoelmaansa. Tämä oli Englanti, Takana länttä ja Eurooppaa, Mitä on olla suomalainen, Löysin idän ja Mannerheimia käsittelevä Suuri rooli. Näistä varsinkin Mitä on olla suomalainen herätti laajaa huomiota. Suomesta ja maailmalta keskittyy Niiniluodon kirjalliseen tuotantoon, mutta sisältää myös elämäkerrallisen katsauksen ja laajan luettelon hänen lehtiartikkeleistaan.
Nationalism as an argument in contemporary Russia. Four perspectives on language in action
Authors: Laine Veera
Published: December 2021

This dissertation analyses the uses of the concept of nationalism in Russia from a historical perspective. It is based on four empirical studies examining textual material produced between the years 2000 and 2020. During this time, and after the so-called “conservative turn” in particular, the state leadership in Russia adopted increasingly authoritarian policies vis-à-vis society, and started to portray Russia as being under an external threat. The annexation of Crimea and the onset of the war in Ukraine in 2014 solidified the way in which recent political changes in Russia were characterised as “growing nationalism”.

 

In this temporal context, the study suggests that nationalist discourses are currently shifting, and traces these shifts in scholarly and everyday language. The negative connotations of nationalism in everyday language affect its scholarly use, which is why the aspects of nationalism as an analytical concept, as well as the complex relationship between the concept and the term itself, are expounded in the study. Following the tradition of critical nationalism studies, the dissertation approaches the ‘nation’ as a political claim that results from a constructive process in language. The dissertation draws on the rhetorical tradition of conceptual history in analysing specific concepts, metaphors and narratives within nationalist discourses as a means of framing politics. The way language is used simultaneously defines the boundaries of actual policies. More specifically, the rhetorical choices of politicians map the conditions of belonging to a nation, duly having real implications for people’s lives.

Authors: Effrata Effrata , Firdaus Firdaus
Published: December 2021

Kebudayaan adalah suatu cara hidup yang berkembang dan dimiliki bersama oleh sebuah kelompok orang yang diwariskan dari generasi ke generasi. Budaya terbentuk dari banyak unsur yang rumit, termasuk sistem agama, politik, adat istiadat, bahasa, pakaian, bangunan dan karya seni. Desa Dayu yang memiliki ciri khas upacara ritual yang dikenal dengan Miwit Abeh. Dalam upaya masyarakat tentu perlu dukungan dari pemerintah khususnya pemerintah desa dalam melestarikan ritual Miwit Abeh ini agar tidak musnah di tengah perkembangan zaman. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis peran pemerintah desa dalam melestarikan ritual Miwit Abeh di desa Dayu, Kecamatan Karusen Janang, Kabupaten Barito Timur serta mendeskripsikan faktor pendukung dan penghambatnya. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif. Pendekatan penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian yaitu menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif.

Berdasarkan hasil penelitian yang dilakukan ditemukan bahwa Salah satu bentuk dari dukungan dari pemerintah Desa Dayu terhadap tradisi ritual Miwit Abeh yaitu, menyediakan sarana dan prasarana berupa rumah adat dan ikut berpartisipasi melibatkan diri dalam pelaksanaan tersebut. Faktor pendukung dalam melestarikan ritual Miwit Abeh yaitu selain dari peran pemerintah khususnya pemerintah desa juga dari masyarakat desa yang ikut mempromosikan melalui media masa. Faktor penghambat internal  yang menjadi penghambat yaitu sikap individu di dalam masyarakat untuk lebih mencintai tradisi sendiri masih sangat rendah, adapun faktor eksternalnya adalah munculnya acara-acara modern seiring perkembangan zaman yang menarik perhatian kaum muda khususnya, sehingga mengurangi minat mereka akan ritual-ritual tradisional yang mereka anggap kuno.

Dapat disimpulkan bahwa peran pemerintah khususnya pemerintah desa sangat mempengaruhi dalam pelestarian budaya-budaya khususnya ritual Miwit Abah yang sudah ada sejak turun temurun. Menjadi tantangan semua pihak baik pemerintah amaupun masyarakat agar bisa menumbuhkan sikap peduli budaya kepada generasi selanjutnya agar ritual seperti Miwit Abeh ini tidak musnah.

Published: December 2021

Birbiri ile bağlantıları çizgilerle görselleştirilen aktörlerin bir araya gelmesi ile oluşturulan bağlantı haritaları normalde fark edilmeyen bir takım ilişkileri gösterme gücüne sahip araçlardır. İlişkileri haritalandırmak bile anlam çıkarmaya yardım edebilir ancak bu ilişkilerden daha fazla anlam çıkarmanın bir yolu da “ağ analizi” adı verilen ve çizge(graph) teorisine dayalı matematiksel yöntemlerdir. Ağ analizi ile aktörler (insan, şirket, kurum vs.) arasındaki ilişkilerden ağdaki en güçlü aktörler, birbirine aşırı bağlı gruplar (klikler) veya ağdaki izole aktörler ortaya çıkarılabilir. Ağ analizi için UCINET, Gephi gibi araçlar mevcut olmakla birlikte bu araçların tamamı masaüstü uygulaması olarak kurulum gerektirmektedir. Bu araçlardan UCINET ücretli iken, Gephi ise Java Geliştirme Ortamının eski sürümlerini kullanmaktadır. Bu nedenle kurulumları pratik değildir. Çok güçlü olmalarına rağmen bu araçlar sadece kurulum değil kullanım itibariyle de dikkat ve uzmanlık gerektirirler. Bu durum bazı basit analizleri yapmak isteyen alan dışı kullanıcıların işini zorlaştırmaktadır. Bu amaçla, bu makale kapsamında Web3A adlı, web tabanlı bir ağ analiz aracı geliştirilmiştir. Web3A yardımı ile ağa ait tüm merkezilik ölçütleri Web3A web uygulaması üzerinden hesaplanabilmekte ve ağ görselleştirilebilmektedir. Bu araç, her alandan araştırmacıların ağ analizini hızlı ve basit şekilde gerçekleştirmelerini sağlamak için geliştirilmiştir. Bu çalışma, geliştirilen bu aracın çalışma şeklini örnekler üzerinden ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır.
Body and Sartorial Paradox in Physical Education: A New Look at the Gender Interaction and Co-Educational System in Physical Education Class
Authors: Boughattas Wissal , Moella Najwa
Published: December 2021

Since the Tunisian Revolution of 2010, two views (modernism and conservatism) conduct two opposite social projects for the Tunisian population, which affect, in first order, the school from primary to secondary level. The Tunisian educational system is based on co-education, contradicting the country’s conservatism culture. The religious dress (veil/hijab) is accepted and tolerated in schools. Physical education, as an educational discipline, had to adapt to these changes, especially to the religion dress and gender interaction. The aim of this paper is to study, through the representations of physical education’s (PE) teachers, the paradoxes observed between physical practice and religious dress (veil/Hijab) and the management of the co-educational system in PE classes. This is based on the opinion which indicates that this matter requires the student’s body and physical ability to be independent from their gender, dress or motor skills. The results show a difference in opinion between females and male teachers regarding gender interaction and religious dress.
Shark Finning Legislation and Shark Welfare. An Analysis of the Kristin Jacobs Ocean Conservation Act
Authors: Cajiga Rosa María
Published: December 2021

Thousands of sharks are cruelly killed worldwide every day due to the lucrative shark finning trade. This practice is negatively impacting marine life, as sharks are the greatest ocean predators and maintain the delicate balance of the marine ecosystem. Shark finning consists of removing the fins and discarding the rest. The sharks are alive during the process, and when tossed back into the water without fins they cannot swim, thus sinking to the depths where they asphyxiate and / or are devoured by other fish. The fins are primarily consumed in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Asian communities elsewhere in the world for making shark-fin soup. Efforts to stop the practice of shark finning vary, ranging from demanding fisheries to bring sharks to land before removing the fins, to prohibiting the trade of shark products, to the total ban of shark fishing. Legislation varies significantly between countries and states, ranging from zero to absolute protection, whereby absolute means prohibiting the possession, sale, importation and exportation of shark fins. The economic implications of the shark-fin trade are considerable, which renders the application of laws and regulations very difficult. However, the increasing business of diving with sharks offers an alternative that shows us that the value of a living shark is far greater than when it is sold for parts. Analyzing legislation from the United States, as well as international legislation, aims to show its weakness when it comes to efforts to protect sharks, and in particular the application of the concept of shark welfare when legislating in their favor. The case study will focus on the Kristin Jacobs Ocean Conservation Act, investigating and analyzing the legal efforts made in the state of Florida (USA) to stop shark finning, and analyzing the legal implications for shark welfare.

Authors: Salzani Carlo
Published: December 2021

El libro de Rosa María de la Torre Torres expone y presenta de forma clara, elegante y concisa los orígenes y fundamentos, además de los problemas filosóficos y jurídicos, relativos a la cuestión de los derechos de los animales. La propuesta de la autora se enmarca en el Derecho y la necesidad de replantearnos la relación entre humanos y no humanos, siendo una de las exigencias más dramáticas de nuestra época. Sin embargo, la autora es consciente de que incluir a especies no humanas implica una transformación radical del Derecho mismo y no se puede limitar simplemente a la mera extensión de las actuales categorías jurídicas. Justamente por eso es tan importante establecer fundamentos claros y sólidos, sin los cuales cualquier propuesta sería en vano. Esta reflexión confiere al libro una complejidad y profundidad filosófica que se suele echar en falta en muchos debates sobre los “derechos animales”.

Impact of Intellectual Property Rights on the National Science System
Authors: Straus Joseph
Published: December 2021

After using the 2020 developments of the COVID-19 vaccines as an example of successful cooperation between academia, industry and government for supporting research and translating its results into innovations assisted by patents, the article turns to the national science systems. First, it addresses the pioneering role of the 1945 “Science the Endless Frontier”, the Magna Carta of American Science and its patent policy. Retraced are the subsequent US developments revealing a gradual turn from incentivizing knowledge and technology transfer from government funded institutions to industry by allowing it only in the form of non-exclusive licenses, to imposing the public research sector an obligation to commercialize its research results by allowing exclusive licenses and assignments of intellectual property rights to private business. This all by recognizing and preserving academic freedom and inquiry. Next, it pays attention to developments in countries where legislators followed overall the US model. Finally, the contribution discusses the intellectual property rights system in the light of the specific needs of academic researchers.
Consequences of the SARS-CoV-2 Pandemic on Mental Health: Integrative Review
Authors: Gonçalves Júnior Jucier , Farias de Oliviera Gislene , Leite Rolim-Neto Modesto
Published: December 2021

The lack of specific treatment and knowledge about the exact pathophysiology of the 2019 Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and its vaccines makes the organic aspects of the pandemic a concern and puts the psychiatric consequences and psychological effects of SARS-CoV-2, COVID-19, in second place. Hence, the psychiatric impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have not been well established yet. We have performed an integrative literature review in three electronic databases: Medline, PsycINFO, and Published International Literature on Traumatic Stress (PILOTS). The findings were then divided into five subcategories: impacts of COVID-19 on the mental health of psychiatric patients; use of technology as an ally in combating impacts on mental health in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic; mental health promotion measures in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic for the population; mental health promotion measures in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic for health professionals; and mental health in specific groups in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. This study has showed that the situation and measures proposed to fight the COVID-19 pandemic cause stress, anxiety, fear, and uncertainty in the population. Psychiatric patients, the elderly, refugees, and migrant workers are more vulnerable due to the stigmatization and lack of specialized support in health services and reduced access to medications. Therefore, they require care from governments and health authorities. In addition, measures to promote hospital health for health professionals seem to be essential to improve care and reduce the psychologic/psychiatric impacts on professionals. Thus, technology is a valuable ally in this process.
Evolution of Diagnostic Methods and Prevalence Detection of COVID-19: A Review
Authors: Bherwani Hemant
Published: December 2021

In clinical, research, and public health laboratories, many diagnostic methods are used to detect the coronavirus. Some tests directly detect infection by detecting viral RNA, while others detect the disease indirectly by detecting host antibodies. Several studies on SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic methods have found varying throughput, batching capacity, infrastructure requirements, analytical efficiency, and turnaround times ranging from minutes to hours. Serosurvey studies have been conducted for antibodies to understand, model, and forecast the prevalence of the disease in an area. While on the research and predictive modeling side, sampling and analysis of sewage have been conducted to determine the number of RNA copies and hence the prevalence. Certain studies indicate usefulness of GIS (Geographic Information System) for understanding the pervasiveness of COVID-19 in an area as well. The current chapter deals with the evolution of diagnostic techniques for COVID-19 and discusses use of specific techniques and appropriateness in certain specified conditions. It also focuses on understanding the methods used for assessing the prevalence of COVID-19 in a particular region to extract mitigative strategies from it, either by prediction or management of the affected area.
Experiences of Student Affairs Professionals in Facilitating Co-Curricular Leadership Development Programmes in South African Universities

Published: December 2021

Despite the important role that student affairs practitioners play in supportinguniversities to produce well-rounded graduates, few studies have beenconducted on their lived experiences. This article examines the challengesconfronted by these professionals in interacting with student leadersand facilitating leadership programmes in South African universities. Aqualitative methodology was adopted and semi-structured interviews wereconducted with 20 student affairs practitioners responsible for facilitatingstudent leadership development programmes. A focus group discussionwas also held with six student affairs experts. The findings point to a lackof seamlessness in the structure, staffing, and operation of these programmes,as well as a lack of university support to professionalise student affairs.Furthermore, student leadership development programmes werefound to lack proper theoretical grounding.

Published: December 2021

The use of “kabasura kudineer” (liquid soup made from Indian medicinal plants) for combating COVID-19 has been common in the states of Tamilnadu and Puducherry, India during the pandemic. Therefore, it is of interest to document the molecular docking analysis of IL-6 inhibitors with potential antiviral compounds from “kabasura kudineer” extract. We show the optimal binding features of gallic acid and luteolin with the Interleukin-6 protein for further consideration.
The Presence of María de Velasco in Pinar’s Juego trobado, in the Carajicomedia, and in La novela del licenciado Vidriera by Cervantes
Authors: Boase Roger
Published: December 2021

Research on the court ladies who participated in Pinar’s Juego trobado, a card game in verse completed in 1496, led to the discovery that María de Velasco, wife of Juan Velázquez de Cuéllar, and adoptive-mother of Ignatius Loyola, subsequently appears in several literary texts, the first of which is the Carajicomedia, where she is metamorphosed into an old prostitute skilled in the arts of seduction. Surprisingly, I have detected her presence in La novela del licenciado Vidriera, one of Cervantes’ Novelas ejemplares: each of the names of the main character, given or adopted during the course of his life, is linked in some way with this lady; and, furthermore, there are other correspondences, above all the symbolism of the quince. This begs the question whether the tale was intended to convey a coded message, and if so, one wonders what kind of message.  This discovery also seems to add some credence to the theory that in Don Quixote Cervantes wished to parody the life of Ignatius Loyola as well as the heroes of chivalric romance.
Batch Order and Discrete Order Picking Integrated with Vehicle Routing Decisions
Authors: Janssens Gerrit Karel , Moons Stef , Ramaekers Katrien , Caris An
Published: December 2021

In a business-to-consumer (B2C) context, customers order more frequently and in smaller quantities, resulting in a high number of consignments. Moreover, online shoppers expect a fast and accurate delivery at low cost or even free. To survive in such a market, companies can no longer optimise individual supply chain processes, but need to integrate several activities. In this article, the integrated order picking-vehicle routing problem is analysed in an e-commerce environment. In previous research, a mathematical programming formulation has been formulated in literature but only small-size instances can be solved to optimality. Two picking policies are studied: discrete order picking and batch order picking. The influence of various problem contexts on the value of integration is investigated: a small picking time period, outsourcing to 3PL service providers, and a dynamic environment context.
CURRENT DISTRIBUTION DEPENDENCE ON ELECTRIC FIELD IN HELICALLY COILED CARBON NANOTUBES
Authors: Popović Zoran P. , Vuković Tatjana , Nikolić Božidar , Damnjanović Milan , Milošević Ivanka
Published: December 2021

Experimentally is confirmed that helically coiled carbon nanotube (HCCNT) could be used as a small solenoid for generating spatially localized magnetic field. Current distribution during diffusive electronic transport likewise the inductivity of this quantum conductor depends on electric field. Despite slightly lower electron mobility in HCCNTs than that of the straight single wall carbon nanotubes, the coiled nanotubes are attractive for application as nonlinear nano-solenoids. Nonequilibrium electron distribution functions obtained by solving Boltzmann transport equation are used to predict average helical radius of current flow as a function of electric field intensity. Change of spatial distribution of electronic flow with applied electric field is considered and nonlinear inductivity of HCCNT is predicted.

PRODUCTION OF WOOD ENERGY BY CHIPPING
Authors: Marčeta Dane , Petković Vladimir , Globočki Lakić Gordana
Published: December 2021

Increasing demand for using renewable energy resources is strongly emphasized during the last decades. On the international level it is recognized through a series of conventions, conclusions and recommendations. Forests are energy source through conversion of wood biomass into solid, fluent and gaseous fuels for industrial and household use. Wood chips is a form of biomass, size of 5-50 mm, which is obtained by chipping of lower quality logs, trees, brushwood and wood residues. Some investigation showed that choosing the right chipper is crucial in a projection of chipping system. In this study, chipping at the landing site was compared with the Jenz HEM 700 and Pezzolato PTH 1300/1500 chippers. The subject of chipping was beech long fuelwood and stacked fuelwood. The investigation was done with the time and work-study method. Cost calculation was performed according to FAO methodology, slightly modified for local conditions. Also, in simulations, Jenz HEM 561 DQ was included in order to cover a wider range of chippers by the capacity, but data for this chipper were undertaken from other research. Unit costs of chipping were calculated on the basis of raw material input and chipper output. Unit costs were expressed for factory projected chippers productivity also, in order to compare obtained unit costs with costs when chippers are working below full capacity. Results of the productivity and cost calculation of chippers showed that bigger chippers had lower unit costs, but because of inability to achieve full capacity at the forest landing site and because of their dimensions which hinder the manipulation, it can be recommended using of chippers of smaller capacity like Jenz HEM 561 DQ or even smaller.
RADON SURVEY IN THE BUILDINGS OF PRE-UNIVERSITY EDUCATION IN MONTENEGRO
Authors: Zekić Ranko , Vukotić Perko , Andjelić Tomislav , Svrkota Nikola
Published: December 2021

During the academic year 2016/17 (September − June), radon was surveyed in all 519 buildings of the pre-university education in Montenegro – primary, high and vocational schools, kindergartens, institutes for children with special needs and student dormitories. Radon detectors (Radosys,RSFV type) were placed in all classrooms, rooms occupied by children and offices on ground floor, and in some rooms on the upper floors. The total number of detectors was 4078, of which 285 were duplicate (control) detectors. During the radon survey, 11.4% of the detectors were lost or damaged. Average 9-month radon activity concentrations were obtained for 3345 rooms in 507 buildings. Mean values of radon concentrations in the rooms were AM = 243 Bq/m3 and GM = 142 Bq/m3, while the corresponding values for Montenegrin dwellings, found in the national radon survey, were more than twice lower. Radon concentrations above 300 Bq/m3 were found in 23.3% of all surveyed rooms and in 3.4% of the rooms they were above 1000 Bq/m3. Radon activity concentrations above 300 Bq/m3 were measured in some rooms in 44% of the buildings, and those above 1000 Bq/m3 in 9.5% of the buildings. Radon levels in educational buildings are significantly higher than in Montenegrin homes, which means that children and educators are more exposed to the harmful effects of radon in schools and kindergartens than at homes (for equal durations of stay in them). This could be resulting from the type of construction of educational buildings, which are usually large low-rise structures, and from a relatively high average age of these buildings.
Effect of Helicobacter pylori Eradication on Epigenetic Changes in Gastric Cancer-related Genes
Authors: Choi Ji Min , Kim Sang Gyun
Published: December 2021

It is known that gastric carcinogenesis results from the progressive changes from chronic gastritis to gastric atrophy, intestinal metaplasia, dysplasia, and invasive carcinoma. Several genetic and epigenetic alterations are involved in this process, and Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is believed to induce the initiation and progression of these steps. From an epigenetic point of view, H. pylori induces hypermethylation of genes involved in the development of gastric cancer and regulates the expression of various microRNAs (miRNAs). These H. pylori-related epigenetic changes are accumulated not only at the site of neoplasm but also in the adjacent non-cancerous gastric mucosa. Thereby, a state vulnerable to gastric cancer known as an epigenetic field defect is formed. H. pylori eradication can have an effective chemopreventive effect in gastric carcinogenesis. However, the molecular biological changes that occur in the stomach environment during H. pylori eradication have not yet been established. Several studies have reported that H. pylori eradication can restore infection-related changes, especially epigenetic alterations in gastric cancer-related genes, but some studies have shown otherwise. Simply put, it appears that the recovery of methylated gastric cancer-related genes and miRNAs during H. pylori eradication may vary among genes and may also differ depending on the histological subtype of the gastric mucosa. In this review, we will discuss the potential mechanism of gastric cancer prevention by H. pylori eradication, mainly from an epigenetic perspective.

Published: December 2021

A contrapelo do “Novo Ensino Médio”, objetiva-se defender o Ensino Médio Integrado a partir da discussão sobre o lugar da Arte em uma formação omnilateral. Para tanto, discute-se por meio de pesquisa teórica, a concepção de formação humana e de arte, tendo como base as formulações de Marx. Também se recorre a uma experiência pedagógica construída sobre Educação Estética na Educação Profissional desenvolvida no Instituto Federal do Espírito Santo. Conclui-se que como conteúdo de ensino, sob uma perspectiva crítica, a Arte pode deslocar a insistente concepção de educação profissional e técnica pautada no saber fazer de uma profissão para um horizonte mais amplo de formação de um ser humano inteiro. Assim, uma proposição crítica de ensino da Arte pode contribuir não apenas para a efetivação do Ensino Médio Integrado, como também para projetos educacionais de resistência a contrarreformas do ensino médio no Brasil.
A EXPERIÊNCIA ESTÉTICA NA FORMAÇÃO DOCENTE: REFLEXÕES A PARTIR DE THEODOR W. ADORNO
Authors: Ripa Roselaine , Silva Alex Sander da
Published: December 2021

Este trabalho tem o objetivo de pensar nas contribuições da experiência estética, a partir das reflexões de Theodor W. Adorno (1903-1969), para a formação docente. Theodor W. Adorno, que integrou a primeira geração da chamada Escola de Frankfurt, teceu importantes reflexões críticas ao longo de sua produção escrita, entrelaçando arte e filosofia, com potencial para pensarmos os conceitos de Educação, Experiência e Formação na sociedade administrada. Na primeira parte deste trabalho, apresentaremos uma discussão teórica sobre esses três conceitos no mundo contemporâneo, tendo como base as reflexões presentes, particularmente, na Teoria da Semiformação (2010) de Adorno. Ao trazer para discussão do processo formativo na atualidade a tensão que Adorno alimenta entre a Bildung e a Halbbildung, buscaremos compreender a Educação em seu sentido de emancipação social e política. Na sequência, teceremos apontamentos sobre alguns elementos para pensar a experiência estética e a formação docente, de modo particular, pensar a tensão entre as obras de arte e os significados da formação docente em tempos de dominação da lógica mercantil no âmbito educacional.

AQUISIÇÃO DA LINGUAGEM ESCRITA: O DESEJO DE ESCREVER NA PASSAGEM DO DESENHO À LETRA
Authors: Pereira Lima Carvalho Magda Wacemberg
Published: December 2021

Neste artigo, colocamos em discussão a travessia da criança pela aquisição da linguagem escrita, apresentando o movimento que a criança faz pela escrita até o surgimento da letra gráfica. A partir da noção psicanalítica de recalque, formulamos a questão: o que a criança escreve no início de sua travessia pela aquisição da linguagem escrita e o que a motiva a escrever? Nesse enfoque, apresentamos produções escritas por crianças entre três e quatro anos de idade, que cursavam o primeiro e o segundo ano da Educação Infantil. A partir de tal abordagem, observamos que a criança inicia com traçados de linhas e, aos poucos, quando o valor da imagem é recalcado, as primeiras letras gráficas começam a emergir nas produções escritas. Quanto ao que motiva a criança a escrever, entendemos que seu encorajamento se dá pelo desejo de escrever.
Into the Benthos and Back: What have Infauna Taught Us
Authors: Montagna Paul A.
Published: December 2021

ABSTRACT ID 685153

Because of death and gravity, the bottom of the sea is the memory of the ecosystem, where a record of all past events can be found as you move into deeper layers of sediment. Thus, benthos are primary indicators for environmental assessments. As hydrocarbon exploration and production moved to deeper waters, so did environmental studies. But there were only a few Gulf-wide surveys in the deepest parts of the Gulf of Mexico, and our understanding of deep-sea processes was based primarily on other regions of the world. The intensive focus on deep-sea response during and after the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) accident increased our knowledge dramatically. We learned that the deep sea is dynamic, fragile, and will take a long time to recover. There was a 50% loss of biodiversity within 9 km diameter around the DWH site, and a 10% within a 17 km of the site. But there is still much to learn. The deep-sea is a reservoir of biodiversity on Earth, but about 60% of Gulf of Mexico taxa are still unknown, which is a major hinderance to understanding the effects of oil spills. The northern Gulf of Mexico is dominated by Mississippi River outflow, but exactly how it drives deep-sea dynamics needs better resolution. Two outcomes of the last decade of research is that we know benthos diversity is a sensitive indicator of environmental change and damage, the surface sediments are the biologically active zones, and the natural process of sinking particles will eventually cover the damaged sediment leading to natural recovery. This “restoration in place” strategy must be confirmed by future monitoring and assessment studies.

Aims: Peste des petits Ruminants (PPR) is a major viral disease that poses a challenge to small ruminant farming. Its natural occurrence has been complicated by secondary bacterial infection which has led to an increase in morbidity and mortality rates. This study reports the management outcome of natural PPR-infected goats using two types of antibiotics in Nsukka metropolis of Enugu State Nigeria.

Methodology: Goats (N=24) were confirmed to be suffering from PPR based on clinical signs and using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The animals were divided into two groups. Group A was treated with 20% oxytetracycline (N= 10) and group B with procaine penicillin and streptomycin combination (penstrept) (N= 14) injection. Clinical signs, recovery and survivability, temperature, haematology [Packed cell volume (PCV); haemoglobin concentration (Hbconc); red blood cell (RBC) and white blood cell (WBC) counts] and some serum biochemical profiles [alanine aminotransferase (ALT); aspartate transaminase (AST); total protein (TP); Albumin; urea; creatinine; potassium and sodium] were used to assess the efficacy of the antibiotics using standard techniques.

Results: The mean temperature, RBC, WBC and urea values of the PPR-infected goats were above their reference ranges, mean albumin values were below the reference range while mean Hbconc, PCV, AST, ALT, TP and creatinine values were within their reference range before the commencement of treatment. Following treatment, clinical signs cleared in 20% and 35.7% of the goats treated with oxytetracycline and penstrep respectively. Death was recorded in 20% and 15% of goats treated with oxytetracycline and penstrep respectively before the end of treatment. Penstrep-treated group showed improvement in their haematological profile.

Conclusion: Based on our findings, the use of penstrep in the management of PPR-infected goats gave a better result.

Cosplay menjadi hobi cosplay diminati masyarakat Indonesia dari berbagai latar belakang agama, salah satunya adalah agama Islam. Islam memiliki aturan bagi muslimah (sebutan bagi wanita yang beragama Islam) untuk menutup aurat, salah satunya dengan menggunakan hijab. Untuk dapat melakukan cosplay berhijab terdapat muslimah yang mencampurkan visual figur anime, manga, dan game dengan hijab dan kostum yang dikenakan. Percampuran tersebut terlihat pada modifikasi kostum dan rambut figur yang dicosplaykan. Menggunakan konsep Hibriditas Homi K. Bhabha, modifikasi kain hijab dan kostum cosplay dilihat sebagai hibriditas visual sebagaimana kejelasan identitas cosplay dan hijab menjadi lebur dan menghasilkan sebuah identitas baru yakni cosplay berhijab. Penelitian ini adalah analisis deskriptif dengan sudut pandang memaknai fenomena visual cosplay berhijab sebagai satu bentuk upaya mencapai rasa percaya diri dan sebagai bentuk perayaan masyarakat poskolonial akan kebutuhan ‘jaman now’. Untuk mencapai kedua hal tersebut, cosplayer berhijab melakukan modifikasi kain hijab dan kostum cosplay dengan tetap memasukkan karakteristik visual figur yang dicosplaykan.
Investigation of the Attachment of Circulating Endothelial Cells to a Cell Probe: Combined Experimental and Numerical Study

Published: December 2021

Circulating endothelial cells (CECs) are a reliable biomarker for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). A major unresolved challenge limiting the widespread use of CECs for the diagnosis and monitoring of CVDs is their unreliable detection. This problem is mainly attributed to the low sample volume (5–10 mL) of commonly used ex vivo CEC isolation methods. To overcome this limitation, the BMProbe for the in vivo isolation of CECs is proposed. It consists of a twisted medical flat wire with a polymer‐coated surface functionalized with anti‐CD105 antibodies. A combined experimental and numerical study is performed to investigate which flow conditions lead to an increased cell attachment to the probe's surface. Endothelial cells are solved in a dextran solution and circulated in a flow system containing the BMProbes. Microscopic images of the attached CECs are taken. In addition, the experiments are simulated using a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) flow solver to quantify the flow conditions at the probe's surface. The microscopic images are superimposed with the CFD data to investigate the influence of wall shear rate and wall normal rate on the attachment of CECs to the probe. Most of all attached cells (85.5%) are found in areas of negative wall normal rate.
