Authors: Haque Monoarul
Published: June 2024

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the current paddy procurement system in Bangladesh and find out the consciousness of the farmers towards it. In this paper, quantitative research methodology was followed. To assess the consciousness the perception and satisfaction of farmers were measured. For the measurement, a survey was conducted on 210 farmers of three Upazilas using a pre-tested and close-ended questionnaire. Data analysis was done using SPSS software version 20. The study finds that about 67.6% of respondents are not happy with the current paddy procurement system. This study found that about 69.10% of respondents think there are the middle man in the current system of paddy procurement, about 94.30% of the respondent opined regarding the need for an improvement of the current system, 99.0% thinks about new paddy procurement system may be helpful. Moreover, these findings led to conclude that there is a huge scope of improvising the current paddy procurement system which will make the activities of the paddy procurement more transparent to all including the farmers. The study may significantly contribute to the policymaking in the paddy procurement system in Bangladesh and similar paddy procurement problems have been faced in many other countries in the world.

Neck Pain among Dental Practitioners
Authors: Haque Monoarul
Published: June 2024

Dentistry is a demanding profession regarding concentration and precision. Performance of dental treatment results in a very inflexible work posture and under stressful body position for prolonged period, bad pattern and faulty neck posture disturbs the normal spine curve of neck leading to muscular imbalance and consequently lead to neck pain and disability. The aim of the study is to measure the prevalence of neck pain among the Dental surgeons in Dhaka city of Bangladesh. This is a cross-sectional survey type study. Dentists who reported neck pain last for 12 months were selected as a study population. After screening Neck pain intensity was measured by using 101 NPRS. Then the dentists were given NPAD questionnaire to measure disability level due to neck pain. About 36.60% dental surgeons had neck pain whereas 63.40% did not have. Among 71 dental surgeons 55.20% had moderate neck pain according to neck pain and disability scale (NPAD scale) followed by 23.90% had mild pain and 20.90% had severe pain respectively. Statistically no significant association was found between neck pain and age group. Statistically significant association was found between neck pain and duration of job of the respondents. Moreover, study found that negative correlation between age of the dental surgeons and pain score and it was not statistically significant. It is concluded from the study that prevalence of neck pain among dental surgeons working in Dhaka city is still high i.e. one in every three dental surgeons suffered from neck pain. Preventive musculoskeletal awareness campaign and posture training can be conducted among dental surgeons.
On the External Estimation of Reachable and Null-Controllable Limit Sets for Linear Discrete-Time Systems with a Summary Constraint on the Scalar Control
Authors:   Moscow Aviation Institute (National Research University), Moscow, Russia, Ibragimov D. N.
Published: June 2024

The problem of constructing reachable and null-controllable sets for stationary linear discrete-time systems with a summary constraint on the scalar control is considered. For the case of quadratic constraints and a diagonalizable matrix of the system, these sets are built explicitly in the form of ellipsoids. In the general case, the limit reachable and null-controllable sets are represented as fixed points of a contraction mapping in the metric space of compact sets. On the basis of the method of simple iteration, a convergent procedure for constructing their external estimates with an indication of the a priori approximation error is proposed. Examples are given.

This paper discusses the phenomenon associated with the forced synchronization (“entrainment of a self-sustained oscillator by an external force”) in a relay system with hysteresis, which manifests itself in the occurrence of periodic motions close to the rhythmic activity of neurons, when packets of fast oscillations are interspersed with intervals of the slow dynamics. To study this phenomenon, we introduce a circle mapping, which, depending on the parameters, can be a circle diffeomorphism or discontinuous map (“gap map”). In both cases, this mapping demonstrates the so-called period-adding bifurcation structure. It is demonstrated that packets number of fast oscillations in the period of periodic motion is determined by the rotation number, and the length of the intervals between the packets may be found of the boundaries of the absorbing interval. The change in the number of pulses in the packet occurs through the border-collision bifurcation.
Vertical riverbed deformations due to in-stream mining
Authors: Berkovich K. M. , Zlotina L. V. , Turykin L. A.
Published: June 2024

Comparison of the longitudinal profile of a number of lowland rivers in Russia, revealed their deformation due to a half-century of sediment flux and channel morphology adjustment. This problem remains relevant both in theoretical and practical aspects, especially for rivers where long-term mining of sediments from the stream beds extends from kilometers to tens of kilometers. The removal of a large amount of alluvial material from the sediments transport and changes of the riverbed morphometric characteristics triggered the process of leveling the sediment transport capacity along the river by the scour and resulted in a lowering of the bottom and water surface. The intensity of the incision reached 3–8 centimeters, and its progradation along the river 400–700 meters per year. Retrogressive erosion is pronounced, while progressive one is less pronounced, because partially replaced by mechanical removal of alluvial material. Over the past decades the shape of the longitudinal profiles changed from convex or straight to concave with no signs of recovery, despite the mining has been quite moderate for last 30 years or completed on the explored rivers.
On the new location and some ecological features of Salvinia natans (L.) All. in the ecological systems of the Oka-Don plain (in the basin of the Khopyor river)
Authors: Zavidovskaya T. S. , Larionov M. V.
Published: June 2024

The new locality of Salvinia natans (L.) All., confined to oxbow lake, has been identified. It is located at the initial stage of isolation from the main channel of the Khopyor river. S. natans is part of the yellow pod community. Some features of the structure and habitation of this plant in the conditions of the Khopyor river region are indicated. The dependence of the distribution of the species on the territory of the Oka-Don Plain on the hydrological, meteorological and ecological factors is shown. The cur-rent trends in the expansion of the range of the species are considered from the standpoint of its biology and ecology. The expansion of the distribution boundaries of the S. natans in the territory of the Oka-Don Plain is considered as the consequence of climatic changes at the global and regional levels. This species can be considered of the indicator of the features of the structural organization and the state of natural vegetation in the Khoper River basin.
S. natans can also be considered as the bioindicator of the landscape changes and meteorological shifts. Moreover, this is characteristic of the Oka-Don Plain and the whole territory of the East European Plain.
A new representative
of the ichnogenus Megalosauripus (dinosaurs)
from the Lower Cretaceous
of Northern Caucasus
Authors: Naugolnykh S. V. , Afonkin M. I.
Published: June 2024

The Northern Caucasus area is an unique place, which contains numerous
outcrops of the Cretaceous deposits of wide stratigraphic range from
Valanginian up to Maastrichtian stages. These deposits contain taxonomically
various and highly diverse fossils of many organisms, and traces of their life
activity as well. The paper deals with a description of a new ichnospecies
of the carnivorous dinosaurs attributed to the ichnogenus Megalosauripus,
found in the Valanginian deposits (Lower Cretaceous) of the close vicinity
of the City of Kislovodsk. Four best-preserved footprints were selected for
the present study. These footprints represent a part of the collection of data
including a series of field and cameral photo-images, detailed line-tracing
drawings of the footprints, measurements of the footprints relative position
on the Valanginian depositional / sedimentary surfaces, and the plaster
molds taken of/from the footprints. History of study of the dinosaur footprints
in Northern Caucasus region is described in detail. The most representative
footprint assigned to a new ichnospecies M. caucasicus Naugolnykh et Afonkin,
ichnosp. nov. was selected as a holotype. The holotype is a tridactyl footprint
with imprints of claw phalanges. The most prominent digit is a middle one
(third digit), 18 cm long and 5 cm wide. Second digit is 11 cm long and
3 cm wide. Forth digit is 12 cm long, 2 cm wide. The first digit is weakly
visible. The angles between digits are: the angle between second and third
digits is 36°, the angle between third and fourth digits is 30°. Full length of the footprint is 19 cm. Maximal width of the footprint is 12 cm. The depth
of the footprint is about 1 cm. Two additional footprints attributed to the same
ichnospecis are described in detail as well. A comparison of the new
ichnospecies Megalosauripus caucasicus Naugolnykh et Afonkin, ichnosp. nov.
and the morphologically similar megalosaurid footprints from other regions
of the world is given. The footprints described in the present paper are smaller
than most of the other representatives of the ichnogenus Megalosauripus.
They are different of the similar ichnospecies M. transjuranicus Razzolini et al.,
M. uzbekistanicus Gabunyia et Kurbatov, and the similar footprints of the same
morphological type from Morocco and North America in weakly pronounced
imprints of the digit phalanges
The effects of essential oil scents
on the behavior of laboratory mice and rats:
A brief systematic review
Authors: Klyuchnikova M. A. , Struchkov P. V. , Kvasha I. G.
Published: June 2024

In recent years, partially due to the COVID-19 pandemic, scientific interest
in aromatherapy has increased significantly. However, many alleged effects
and mechanisms of action of essential oils need to be verified by scientific
methods. The search for new bioactive compounds of plant origin is also
of great importance. In this regard, we turned to in vivo studies on model
organisms. We performed an initial systematic literature review of the PubMed
articles on the effects of essential oil odors on behavioral responses
in laboratory rats and mice. We annotated the retrieved list of 77 articles
considering the type of plant source, availability of data on the chemical composition of the essential oil, species/sex/age of the experimental animal,
parameters of odor exposure, model of human disorders used, and types
of behavioral tests. Among the main gaps in the scientific coverage,
we highlighted the imbalance in the sex and age of the laboratory animals,
such as the prevalence of young males. In the referenced studies, the effects
of essential oil odors on depression-like, anxiety and exploratory behavior,
as well as on learning and memory were presented most fully. But the effects
on social behavior of animals were rarely addressed, which we also consider
a gap to be filled with future studies
When a Child is Speech Delay: Causes, Diagnosis, and Intervention
Authors: Maromi Choirul , Pamuji Pamuji
Published: June 2024

Speech Delayin children is a developmental problem that often raises concerns for parents and health professionals. This research aims to identify the causes, diagnostic methods and effective interventions for treating speech delays in children. The causes of speech delays can vary, including genetics, environment, hearing loss, and medical and neurological conditions such as autism and language spectrum disorders. A diagnosis of speech delay requires a comprehensive evaluation by a multidisciplinary team that includes a pediatrician, speech pathologist, psychologist, and audiology specialist. Assessment tools such as language development tests and clinical observations are often used to assess a child's speech and language abilities. Effective interventions include speech therapy, language stimulation programs, as well as active involvement of parents in therapy. In addition, early intervention is highly recommended to maximize a child's speech development potential. This research emphasizes the importance of early detection and appropriate intervention to overcome speech delays and support optimal communication development in children.
Islamic Educational Provisions in South Korea and Indonesia: A Comparison
Authors: Zamakda Allison Safwaan
Published: June 2024

This essay seeks to uncover, examine and analyse the provision of Islamic education in both Indonesia and South Korea. Comparisons were made in respect of infrastructure, curriculum, scope and reach, professionalism, funding and other areas, and potential for improvements identified. By examining existing research, publications, newspaper articles, journal publications, statistics and other data and information sources, it is apparent that Korea is severely lacking in Islamic education provisions, whereas this is not generally the case in Indonesia. This is primarily owing to demographic, historical and social reasons. However, with the declining population of Korea, and a birth-rate unable to reach even a stable replacement-rate, Korea will be forced to meet labour needs by way of immigration. Accordingly, with the arrival of more Muslim workers, and a higher number of Muslim students, the Muslim of population is likely to significantly increase, as will the rate of Korean Muslims by way of conversion to Islam.

Filtering Out Electromagnetic Noise Caused by the Interaction of the Classical Field with the Fiber Phonons from the Quantum Field in an Optical Fiber
Authors: Parthasarathy Harish
Published: June 2024

We consider the propagation of the electromagnetic field within an optical fibre. The field consists of a classical component and a quantum component. The classical component is large and it interacts with the matter within the fibre comprising of atoms that are vibrating, ie, phonons. This interaction causes scattering of the classical field component that interacts with the quantum component of the field, thereby altering the state of the quantum field. After constructing this model, we propose two methods for reducing this "classical-photon-phonon interaction noise". The first method is based on an optimal control algorithm wherein we generate a "control potential" in such a way that after incorporating this potential in the Schrodinger dynamics of the state the state tracks as closely as possible a desired "noiseless state". The second approach is based on Belavkin’s quantum filtering theory wherein we model the classical photons as a quantum Bosonic white noise process and by taking non-demolition measurements on the system, we generate on a real-time basis, an estimate of the evolving state which by application of a control potential is made to track a desired state. Analysis of the spectrum of the transmitted quantum electromagnetic field is carried out by using a quantum stochastic differential model for the noise based on the Hudson-Parthasarathy quantum stochastic calculus. Further, the basic ideas of Cq channel capacities in quantum information theory are used to analyze the rate of information transmission through this optical fibre quantum mechanical channel. Transmission of other kinds of particles like non-Abelian matter and gauge particles are also discussed and the role of superstring theory in building a foundation for corrections to the Yang-Mills action is also discussed. We also highlight the use of the quantum effective action of a field when it interacts with other fields and with random current sources. The quantum effective action, obtained using Feynman’s path integral methods for fields provides a firm foundation for corrections to the classical action by quantum effects and enables one to describe the quantum corrections to the field equations accurately.
Are Large Language Models obsolete? And are multimodal solutions inappropriate?
Authors: Sanna Marco
Published: June 2024

This brief commentary proposes a novel AI design paradigm inspired by an evolutionary theory of language and a dialogical cognitive model. Unlike traditional multimodal models, our approach integrates multimodality at the core of the design process, moving beyond the primary reliance on large language models (LLMs). Drawing from cognitive neuroscience, we propose an asymmetric, dual-network architecture where each network processes distinct modalities – LLMs and gestural language – translating inputs from one to the other. This design aims to enhance creativity and error tolerance in AI systems. We discuss the theoretical foundations, potential advantages, and future research directions of this approach.
Degrowth from the East – between quietness and contention. Collaborative learnings from the Zagreb Degrowth Conference

Published: June 2024

While degrowth as a plural and decolonial movement actively invites the Global South to be part of its transformative project, the current North-South dichotomy threatens to miss the variety of semi-peripheral contexts. Against this backdrop, we aim to contribute to dialogues on degrowth from the often-overlooked ‘East’ – specifically post-socialist Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). Instead of being viewed as a site for transformative examples and inspiration for degrowth-oriented socio-ecological transformation, CEE is often portrayed as ‘lagging behind’. Problematising such reductionist narratives, this essay explores CEE as a lively and rich site of postcapitalist alternatives. Based on two special sessions organised at the 2023 International Degrowth Conference in Zagreb, we ref lect upon insights gathered on various degrowth-aligned traditions and practices in CEE with a goal to 1) advance an equitable dialogue between the global degrowth scholarship and the East, and 2) strengthen a context-sensitive degrowth agenda in CEE.

One of the tasks of cooperative management is to prepare the Cooperative Budget and Expenditures (RAPBK) which is usually done at the Annual Member Meeting. Preparing this budget is important to know what the cooperative will implement in the future or next year. Preparing a budget requires several conditions so that the budget and realization do not deviate too much, namely the budget must be realistic and enforceable and based on valid data so that it is not taken carelessly in its preparation. By preparing the RAPBK, it will also be known when the cooperative will get a surplus of funds and when it will get a deficit. So that the shortage of funds could have been anticipated beforehand. and can anticipate what must be done to cover the funding shortfall.

Supervision is the primary function of goal-oriented management. It is basically a comparison between actual performance and cooperative standards to ensure that the actions taken are correct. Every manager must supervise the activities of his subordinates. It can be defined as determining what has been achieved, deciding on performance, if necessary, implementing corrective actions so that performance conforms to the plan. Supervision is very important to achieve the goals of an organization. It is a process that allows management to implement its policies and take corrective action to improve performance if it does not meet predetermined standards. Planning is the beginning of the management process, while monitoring is said to be the final stage of the management process. While planning looks forward, Control looks backward. Supervision is impossible without planning, otherwise planning will mean nothing without supervision.

Authors: Зон Григорій Анатолійович , Івановська Людмила Борисівна , Майковський Ігор Дмитрович
Published: June 2024

Робота присвячена актуальній проблемі промислового індиківництва, одному з аспектів патології серцево-судинної системи ̶ розривам артеріальних судин (латеризму) у індиків важкого кросу фінального періоду відгодівлі. В огляді літератури представлено вивчення цього питання в світовій практиці промислового індиківництва. Описані найвідоміші етіологічні фактори, які спричиняють патологію у індиків та напрямки профілактики захворювання. Метою роботи було провести патологоанатомічну та патоморфологічну оцінку проблемних ділянок індиків щодо виникнення латеризму за умов збалансованого раціону та згодовування хелатів міді, спрямованих на покращення морфологічного стану судин птиці. Патологоанатомічному дослідженню було піддано 67 трупів самців індиків, старших за 13 тижнів кросу Converter, що загинули від раптової смерті за випадків розривів судин. Оцінювали загальний стан птиці на день настання смерті, вік, стать, патологоанатомічні (основні та фонові) зміни, які призвели до загибелі, місце локалізації розриву судин. Відбирали патологічний матеріал для патогістологічних досліджень. Оцінювали раціон птиці щодо збалансованості за поживними інгредієнтами, вітамінами, макро – мікроелементами відповідно до віку, статі, кросу та періоду відгодівлі. В результаті досліджень встановлено, що не зважаючи на застосування хелатних сполук міді у самців індиків старших за 13 тижнів реєструються випадки раптової смерті внаслідок латеризму. Найуразливішим місцем щодо латеризму можуть бути ділянки відгалуження від грудочеревної аорти краніальної ниркової (a.renalis cranialis) та каудальної брижової артерій (a. mesenterica caudalis). Пошкоджень коронарних артерій, здатних спричинити крововиливи, в жодному з випадків серед досліджених трупів індиків кросу Converter не виявлено. Серед фонових захворювань за латеризму локальні або суцільні дистрофічні зміни в міокарді, а також застійні процеси виявляли в окремих судинах великого кола кровообігу, в печінці, легенях. Застійна гіперемія в судинах венозної системи призводила до дистрофічних та запальних процесів в їх оболонках та артеріальних судинах, з випотіванням рідини в навколосудинний простір, ушкодженням ендотелію, набряку еластичних та колагенові волокна середньої оболонки, на тлі активної проліферації макрофагів.
КСЕНОМОНІТОРИНГОВІ ДОСЛІДЖЕННЯ КОМАРІВ ЗА ДИРОФІЛЯРІОЗУ
Authors: Полюхович Василь Іванович
Published: June 2024

Дирофіляріоз – це зоонозне трансмісивне захворювання, яке спричиняється нематодами Dirofilaria repens і Dirofilaria immitis. У звʼязку із кліматичними змінами захворювання активно розповсюджується з ендемічних південноєвропейських регіонів на схід та захід континенту включаючи Україну. Наявність філярій на території можна контролювати шляхом ксеномоніторингу – виявлення паразитів серед кровосисних членистоногих. У результаті дослідження видового складу комарів на території Хмельницької і Вінницької областей було встановлено, що домінантними видами є Aedes spp., Culex spp. і Anopheles spp. Порівнюючи різноманіття видів, чисельність і розподіл комарів серед приміських і міських досліджених територій, виявлено у 4,5 рази вищу концентрацію комарів у міських районах. Шляхом молекулярного скринінгу виявлено, що комарі виду Aedes spp. і Culex spp. є потенційними векторами для передачі D. repens і D. immitis, зокрема в Україні. Представлені результати вказують на наявність ризику зараження дирофіляріозом у Хмельницькій та Вінницькій областях. Серед комарів також виявлено коінвазії D. repens і D. immitis, що підкреслює важливість моніторингу та профілактичних заходів для запобігання захворюванням серед тварин та людей. У зв'язку з періодичним виявленням D. immitis у собак на території України, важливо звернути увагу на поширення цього паразита. Водночас, температурні умови та географічне розташування грають важливу роль у розподілі та поширенні захворювання. Дослідженнями встановлено можливе існування резервуарів захворювання. Здійснюючи моніторинг комарів можна вчасно виявляти території з високим ризиком зараження дирофіляріозом і вживати ефективні заходи контролю та профілактики. Це особливо важливо в контексті змін клімату та розширення ареалу потенційних комарів-переносників, що може призвести до розширення ареалів поширення захворювання. Таким чином, ксено-моніторинг комарів є ключовим елементом стратегій контролю дирофіляріозу та забезпечує ефективний моніторинг та управління цією векторно-залежною інвазією.
Sobre la internacionalización del teatro chicano: el caso de Carlos Morton
Authors:   Università di Genova, Errico Elena
Published: June 2024

En el artículo se aborda el tema de la diseminación del teatro chicano al extranjero a través de las traducciones/adaptaciones a varias lenguas de las obras de Carlos Morton. En concreto, se pretende mostrar cómo este autor compagina el carácter "étnico" de su obra con el afán de darse a conocer más allá del colectivo chicano. La dificultad traductora inherente en los textos de Morton radica, entre otras, en que están impregnados de elementos lingüístico-culturales específicos, lo que hace justamente que "viajen" con dificultad a otras culturas. A ello se añaden las peculiaridades del género teatral que, por su complejidad semiótica, puede complicar aún más la traducción. Otras veces, sin embargo, puede incluso facilitarla, puesto que cuenta con una multiplicidad de canales de comunicación en interacción con el diálogo que condicionan el componente verbal y que pueden aprovecharse para comunicar mensajes, connotaciones, etc. para los cuales las palabras "se quedarían cortas".
La homosexualidad de Guzmán de Alfarache: una diatriba a las élites
Authors:   Colegio de la Frontera, Zárate Ruiz Arturo
Published: June 2024

Este ensayo revisa una controversia sobre el personaje Guzmán de Alfarache de una novela del “siglo de oro español”, con título homónimo, publicada en dos partes en 1599 y en 1604. El ensayo versa sobre algunos desacuerdos de décadas sobre la homosexualidad de este personaje, según los análisis de Brancaforte, Johnson, Rodríguez y Maravall. Tras un estudio adicional, se afirma finalmente esa homosexualidad y se hace la pregunta sobre qué función pudiera cumplir esta en la obra. De simplemente añadir al pícaro (y al judío converso) un vicio más por el cuál burlarse de él y marginarlo de lleno, Guzmán de Alfarache merecería olvidarse por promover la peor discriminación. Sin embargo, esta novela, por su forma picaresca, hace más bien de la homosexualidad y otros vicios de Guzmán atributos definitorios de las instituciones y de las élites de su época.
Chican@ Artistic Practice: Performing Community in Contested Public Space
Authors:   Universität Bielefeld, Raussert Wilfried
Published: June 2024

The article argues that it can be stated that Chican@ artistic practice has a strong affinity with community building. In this sense, Chican@ art practice holds a long tradition of seeking presence in public space in order to form, question and democratically promote communal bonding. The Chican@ art practice is largely hemispheric and refuses any national classification. In a cultural interspace between Mexican and American communities, Chican@ artists, musicians, and writers tend to engage in aesthetic and community-building cross-border projects. The article explores Chican@ performance culture from El Teatro de Campesino to contemporary border plays and performances of Guillermo Gómez-Peña and argues that artistic practices of Chican@ artists and activists have consciously sought to infiltrate public space and thus transform the public sphere through theater, art, and music in public settings.

Entre la crónica de Indias y el bildungsroman: estrategias argumentativas e informativas en algunas obras de literatura chican@
Authors:   Universidad de Guadalajara, Ramos Godínez Margarita
Published: June 2024

Un análisis previo sobre las funciones adjetiva e interpersonal presentes en Caramelo nos lleva a concluir que Cisneros posee un papel de cronista similar al de Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca quien, a decir de Maura (1988: 15), crea una imagen tradicional y un mito mediante la combinación de elementos autobiográficos y la ficción. A propósito de cronistas, Stoll argumenta que “[…] los soldados cronistas contribuyen por su parte a la modificación de las tradiciones discursivas de la historiografía: dan a los textos historiográficos una orientación autobiográfica, subjetiva y pragmática.” (Stoll, 1994: 78). Otra novela con características similares es Calligraphy of the Witch de Alicia Gaspar de Alba. Por ello, en este artículo se exploran las semejanzas y diferencias con respecto a estrategias argumentativas e informativas encontradas en los Naufragios de Alvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca, Caramelo de Sandra Cisneros y Calligraphy of the Witch de Alicia Gaspar de Alba en donde los personajes narran viajes que hacen a diferentes puntos geográficos con fines diversos; sin embargo, en esos viajes se enfrentan al “otro”, en términos de Foucault, donde ese otro podrá ser su enemigo o su aliado, según sea el caso.
Exploring Identity and Agency through the Investment of Mexican Speakers of English as a Foreign Language
Authors:   Universidad Panamericana Guadalajara, Zavala Susie
Published: June 2024

This article explores identity and agency through the concept of investment as it pertains to Mexican speakers of English as a second language. In this study, I revisit Bonny Norton’s concept of investment, and I claim that the concept of investment provides unique insights into local Mexican foreign-language learning practices. In this article, I argue that participants in my study are successful in their English language learning and language use when they take control of their own learning and use it for their own purposes. I conducted this research in a qualitative study employing semi-structured interviews using narrative analysis. This article will explain the concepts of investment and agency, articulate the overall methodology, and analyze the results of the five participants providing key conclusions to this study. By studying when and why Mexican speakers of English as a foreign language invest in English, this research can help educators understand these learners better. According to the study’s results, when English language learners take control of their own learning and language, using it for their own purposes, they are successful on their own terms.

Published: June 2024

La crise sanitaire internationale a contraint l’état algérien à fermer les établissements d’enseignement et de formation pour limiter la propagation du COVID-19. Dans l’enseignement supérieur, cette décision a engendré un changement des pratiques enseignantes avec l’instauration obligatoire d’un enseignement en ligne. Cette période si singulière, a révélé plusieurs initiatives mises en œuvre dans le but d’assurer une continuité pédagogique par le biais des plateformes et des réseaux, qui ont permis de repenser les liens entre les apprenants et les enseignants. Cette expérience a ainsi mis à l’épreuve l’engagement et la créativité de ces derniers en adoptant une démarche de télétravail en distanciel. Notre objectif par cette étude est de partager nos expériences d’enseignement réalisé durant la pandémie, mais aussi de voir si les dispositifs choisis dans une classe virtuelle permettant d’atteindre la dynamique interactive d’une classe en présentiel.
حديث الأقرع والأبرص والأعمى دراسة تحليلية

This study deals with one of the important aspects of life. The study establishes one of the significant methodologies of the Prophetic teachings, which urges a man to be grateful to the Benefactor by narrating a true story that occurred to three people from the Children of Israel without mentioning their names. This is for those who hear it afterward to accede to that admonition, as there is no wisdom in mentioning name; it is rather in what happened to them. The problem was the reason for exclusively choosing these three afflictions. The study aims at encouraging the exercise of patience in the time of affliction, no matter how severe it is. The study also encourages a strong avidity for being indebted to the Benefactor, because blessings last eternally with gratefulness. Besides, gratefulness is one of the factors for the sustainability and increment of blessings. The research adopts the inductive analytical method. The research has been concluded with the most significant findings. Primarily, Allah exclusively singled out these ailments by making special reference to them, as they are incurable according to human capacity. Ultimately, the affliction is a continuous Divine decree that its occurrence is inevitable.                                                                                                                                                                                                              الملخصتتناول هذه الدراسة جانبًا مهمًا من جوانب حياة الإنسان حيث تكمن أهميتها بأنها أسلوب من أساليب التربية النبوية التي تحث الإنسان على شكر المنعِم من خلال سرد قصة واقعية حدثت في ثلاثة نفر من بني إسرائيل ولم يخبرنا الرسول الكريم بأسمائهم ليتعظ به من سمعه بعدهم إذ ليست الحكمة في ذكر الإسم وإنما في القصة التي حدثت فيهم، فهدفت الدراسة إلى معرفة منهج من مناهج التربية النبوية التي استخدمها رسولنا الكريم من خلال سرد قصص السابقين لأخذ العبرة والعِظة من قصصهم، فكان المنهج المتبع هو المنهج التحليلي الوصفي لهذه القصة ووصف حال النفر من بني إسرائيل، ثم المنهج المقارن للمقارنة بين هذه البلاءات التي ابتلى الله بها هؤلاء النفر من بني إسرائيل، وخَلُصَت الدراسة إلى مجموعة من النتائج، وهي: أن القصص طريقة من طرق التربية النبوية التي استخدمها الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم، وعلى الإنسان الإستفادة من قصص السابقين. وأوصت الدراسة على شكر المنعِم على نعمه في السراء والضراء، والتحلي بالصبر عند الشدائد.
THE RELATIONSHIP PATTERN BETWEEN PERSONALITY TRAITS AND LEARNING RESPONSIBILITY
Authors: Akpur Uğur
Published: June 2024

As the interest in the shift from teacher–centred paradigm to student–centred learning pedagogies has increasingly grown in popularity nowadays, it should come as no surprise that scholars and academicians have given their attention to the concept of self–engagement in the learning process. In an attempt to explore the role of personality in self–engagement, this paper aims to assess the relationship pattern between individuals’ personality traits and their learning responsibility. A total of 358 students attending a university were recruited for the study. The Ten–Item Personality Inventory (TIPI) and The Learning Responsibility Scale were administered. The findings revealed that learning responsibility correlates positively with emotional stability, conscientiousness, and agreeableness. However, the associations between extraversion and openness with learning responsibility are negative and not significant. The findings have also demonstrated that although agreeableness does not display a significant predictive power, both emotional stability and conscientiousness have a significant influence on learning responsibility.

En relación a la contribución a la sociedad que ha sido previamente manifestada, nacen los tributos, que cumplen una doble función: por una parte tienen una finalidad recaudatoria y sirven para contribuir al presupuesto del estado, permitiendo que se satisfagan derechos básicos, como la educación, la salud, entre otros; por otra parte, la finalidad de los tributos no es recaudatoria y cumple una función extrafiscal, esto es, que su objetivo sea influir en la conducta de los contribuyentes, gravando fuertemente los comportamientos ajenos a los intereses generales de una sociedad y generando incentivos fiscales que buscan que las empresas desarrollen planes que sirvan para para cumplir y proteger los derechos humanos, como puede ser la inclusión de las personas discriminadas o proyectos orientados a la conservación ambiental.
Off-label – praktyczne konsekwencje niejasnego prawa
Authors: Gutowska-Ibbs Maria
Published: June 2024

The article discusses off-label use of medicinal products and problems in separating situations in which this form of treatment constitutes innovative therapy from normal medical practice. It highlights the important risk of qualifying routine therapy as a medical experiment and the relationship between the notion of “current medical knowledge” and the Summary of Product Characteristics. The effectiveness in determining whether the proposed method of treatment is a new or used method is discussed, and the postulate of the medical activity of the scientific society in this regard is given. Finally, the implications of considering off-label treatment as a therapeutic experiment, including the need to obtain the opinion of a bioethics committee and to subscribe for the third party liability insurance, as well as their impact on patient safety, legal security of the doctor and overall accessibility of medical treatment are presented.

Authors: Tran Xuan , Rodriguez Arimsay
Published: June 2024

This research aims to employ game theory along with price and income elasticities of demand to reveal hidden strategies for maximizing revenue among competitors in the hotel market, focusing on New York and San Francisco over 20 years. Results suggest that demand for hotels in New York is characterized by luxury-driven income but responsive pricing, while San Francisco exhibits lower income levels but demonstrates Giffen elasticity. Both markets present opportunities for maximizing revenue per available room through a mutually beneficial strategy whereby average daily rates increase in New York and decrease in San Francisco.
