Published: July 2023

Native Language learning is a complex and remarkable achievement because the process generally emerges from unique interactions that distributed across social networks and is embodied in individuals. Accordingly, scholars portray the need of a specific approach in native language learning. Among the native learning approach identified is the ‘experiential learning’, an approach based on the idea of learning from experience as the path to lifelong learning and development. Scholars who is a fan of the learning approach argues that providing the learners an opportunity to learn through experience thus become immensely valuable. Some even specifically suggest that musical instruments can be used as a promising experience based instructional instrument in language learning. But how exactly the musical instruments affect native language learning process? Through the application of a mixed-method approach, this paper examines the relationship between musical instruments and the native language learning via the lens of Rungus in Sabah, Malaysia. It shows that the musical instruments affect the native language learning among Rungus in Sabah, Malaysia. What this now hinted is that the musical instruments are an important part of a successful native language learning process, thus made it clear the need among instructors to consider musical instruments as part of their teaching activities.

Background: Sunlight exposure has several health advantages, including sulphated vitamin D3 synthesis, enhanced cognitive function, supporting bone health, decreasing blood pressure, avoiding illness, and fostering positive mental health. Nevertheless, there are still taboo that relates sun exposure and skin cancer and this phenomenon makes people prefer staying indoor most of the time. Many international studies have been conducted to assess the public perceptions towards sun exposure. To date, there is scarce data on this topic among students in Malaysia. Objectives: This study aimed to assess the knowledge, awareness and behaviours towards sun exposure among the Diploma in Pharmacy students of Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM). Methods: An online cross-sectional study was conducted from March to May 2022 among the Diploma of Pharmacy students in UiTM Cawangan Pulau Pinang. A self-administered questionnaire was constructed in Google Forms consisting of multiple-choice closed-ended questions. Descriptive analysis were used to summarise the sociodemographic profile of the respondents while Chi-square test was used to explore the association between sociodemographic variables and adequacy of knowledge, awareness and behaviour. Result: A total of 176 students with a 100% response rate participated in the study. Majority of the students had high knowledge on the benefits of sun exposure and high awareness on harmful effects of lacking sun exposure. They also showed slightly positive behaviour towards sun exposure. Conclusion: Education and awareness regarding the effects of sun exposure on human health, particularly among students, has to be more progressive. With good instruction and understanding from everyone, we could inform the public about the benefits of sun exposure and encourage them to practise it safely.

Published: July 2023

The existence of Islamic Religious Schools (IRS) and Chinese Schools (CS) preceeded the history of the formation of the country and developed along with the various educational policies implemented by the government until it successfully dignified its position in the current of national education. However, the managers in both types of schools were found to be in conflict with the government in fighting for their educational rights. The conflict between school managers and the government is about maintaining the main goal of school establishment or the school’s traditional curriculum, namely the Diniah curriculum (IRS) and the Chinese language and culture curriculum (CS). In addition, school managers also experience conflicts of overlapping management powers between the School Management Board (SMB) and the government, the ambiguity of education rights based on national legislation and a lack of justice from the aspect of government financial aid distribution. This study aims to examine the practice of democratization of education that exists in the management of both types of schools. In this qualitative study, data was collected through semi-structured interviews with two managers from IRS and two CS managers in Malaysia. The findings of the study show that the government is seen to be practicing imperfect democracy in fulfilling the four aspects of both types of schools’ educational rights, namely the main goal of establishing schools, management authority, legislation and the distribution of financial aid. This government’s practice shows the spirit of democratization of education that prioritizes the direction of the national education policy to meet the country’s aspirations in facing the needs of the 21th century.

Published: July 2023

Preparation and preservation of manners during teaching and learning (PdP) is an important element in the process of acquiring knowledge. The variety of PdP methods should focus on this aspect to maintain a good relationship between students and teachers, an understanding of knowledge, and practise with it. The learning process that is carried out through open and distance learning (ODL) during the covid-19 pandemic season shows that the aspect of appreciating the manners of getting knowledge is not as celebrated as face-to-face PdP. The issues of internet access, limited learning equipment, lack of focus during class, learning while chatting and lying down, disrespecting the teacher, not greeting, and so on have led to problems in the implementation and effectiveness of PdP in all educational institutions, including UiTM. Therefore, this study aims to identify student preparation and analyze the application of student manners during ODL learning during the covid-19 pandemic season. The approaches of qualitative through document analysis and quantitative through the distribution of questionnaires to students of the Diploma in Halal Management, UiTM Negeri Sembilan Branch, were selected for this study and the data were analyzed descriptively using IBM SPSS Statistics version 23 software. The results of the study found that the preparation and manners application of the majority of students are at a very high level, even though the PdP session is conducted in ODL. The study also found that the majority of students still continue the practice of preparing PdP and maintaining good manners during ODL learning, as in the face-to-face learning process before the covid-19 pandemic season. However, there are still preparations and manners that need to be improved by students. In conclusion, the careful preparation and preservation of manners among students during the ODL learning session is still relevant and has a great impact on the appreciation of the manners of seeking knowledge as advocated by Islam while also contributing to the improvement of the PdP process more effectively.
STUDENTS’ AWARENESS AND UTILISATION OF ELECTRONIC BOOKS IN UiTM CAWANGAN PULAU PINANG
Authors: Abdul Razak Noor Aina , Moktaram Hayati
Published: July 2023

To provide open access to electronic resources, academic libraries spend millions each year. Free e-books may not keep students interested in and using them, despite the fact that they are available for free. In fact, the librarians at Perpustakaan Tun Abdul Razak (PTAR) found that students did not fully utilize the e-books available. Thus, they requested a survey to be conducted for students at Universiti Teknologi MARA, Cawangan Pulau Pinang (UiTMCPP) on their e-book awareness and usage. The goal of this study is to identify the reasons why students use and avoid using e-books. More than 200 students at UiTMCPP completed this survey about how they use e-books for learning, how they search for them, what devices that they use to obtain them, and how they read and utilise them. Results show that more than half of the students prefer e-books because they are free and easy to use, while others prefer paper books because they are more convenient. Most students also are aware of and use the library's e-book collection to its fullest, according to the survey results.

Segurança para inglês ver
Authors: Lacerda Igor
Published: July 2023

Este estudo se propõe a analisar e estabelecer comparações entre as representações de segurança no Rio de Janeiro, durante a Copa do Mundo de 2014, criadas pelo jornal O Globo e pelo dossiê Megaeventos e violações dos direitos humanos. Para evidenciar elementos que contribuam para o entendimento de contradições e proximidades das diferentes narrativas, utilizamos a análise de conteúdo, seguindo as diretrizes de Bardin (2016). Para compreender as construções simbólicas contidas nas páginas dos documentos, recorremos à teoria de representações sociais, de acordo com as diretivas de Jovchelovitch (2000). Os dados revelam que a mídia tradicional deu mais destaque aos benefícios que o Rio receberia com a chegada dos jogos, enquanto a mídia alternativa deu mais visibilidade às necessidades e reivindicações do povo. Acredita-se que as representações criadas pelos atores sociais sobre a cidade sede da Copa registram a memória, auxiliando-nos a investigar o que restou de um mundo antigo, e a amar ou rejeitar o que é novo.

Published: July 2023

This research analyzes Nadiem Anwar Makarim’s speech at the Singapore Summit 2020, aiming to distinguish the types of assertive speech acts and to comprehend their functions with the focus on the context. This research employs descriptive quasi or mixed-method. The qualitative method is used to explain the data, while the quantitative method is used to count the percentage of the data. The findings show that there are 139 assertive utterances used by Makarim. The analysis shows that there are five types of assertive speech act found. They are 28 of 20,14% of stating, 22 of 15,82% of claiming, 54 of 38,84% of reporting, 14 or 10,07% of reminding, and 21 or 15,10% of suggesting. Each type has its function. Reporting is to give information to the hearers, stating is to commit the hearers about the fact and truth, claiming is to say that something is true when some people may say that it is not true, suggesting is to give an opinion to the hearers, and reminding is to remind the hearers not to forget the condition. It is because the way Makarim delivered his speech refers to politeness. After reading this research, it is expected that the readers can realize the language phenomenon, especially speech acts and assertive types in a speech which eventually improves the understanding of filtering an utterance.

Published: July 2023

Narratology study has been debate from scholars from myth to postmodern times. However, although postmodern thinkers put aside a set rule of narrative, yet in fact in there are found numerous generous amount of narrative by incorporating the world and the self. This research attemps at applying morphological perspective of Propp’s narrative functions in J.K. Rowling’s novels such as Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Using qualitative content analysis approach, this research was conducted by doing documentation, examination, and classification to obtain the relevant data. The result shows that there are identified 19 functions in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone which written using propp’s nomeclature symbols as βγ2δεη1θ1A14CDEG6J1K5ExI1↑, and then 21 functions in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets written in nomeclature symbols β2γδε2ζη3θA1aBCDEF5G3H2I2Rs1MNQ1, and  13 functions in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them written in nomeclature symbols  αδ[η1η2η3]A13a3C[E7E8][F1F2F4F5F7]GH1I2[K2K5K6K7K10]Rs5Q3. In addition, J.K. Rowling’s novels which widely accepted as postmodern literary works are still relevant to Propp’s morphologic model of narrative functions approach. In short, Propp’s theory is applicable for the study of narrative not only for folktale but also other literary genres.

Authors: Shebolkina E. P. , Krasikova N. V.
Published: July 2023

The article presents the results of the sociological research on the attitude of students of Saint-Petersburg University of Management and Economics Technologies to the actual phenomenon of “cancellation culture” (cancel culture), kanselling in general, and the assessment of the cancellation of Russian culture in the West in connection with the beginning of a special military operation (SSO). The aim of the research was to reveal the peculiarities of perception of the phenomenon by the youth audience, including the influence of this phenomenon on the students’ choice of a line of behavior in the future (to emigrate or to wait). The results of the study showed that young people understand the essence of the term “culture of cancellation”, express their willingness to think and talk about the problem. In their assessment of the possible negative consequences of the so-called abolition of Russia, respondents were on the whole more optimistic than the different-aged audience of the All-Russian Center for the Study of Public Opinion (VTsIOM): the majority of respondents believed that “abolition” would only contribute to the strengthening of Russia’s position in the West. In addition, young people pay attention to the change in motivation in connection with this phenomenon: now they would weigh more seriously than before all the pros and cons of the decision to live and work abroad.

“This is How Things Are”
Authors: Faria Paulo Estrella
Published: July 2023

Proponho uma interpretação das observações de Wittgenstein nas Investigações Filosóficas (§§ 134-6) sobre a doutrina da ‘forma proposicional geral’ exposta no Tractatus. Contra a leitura predominante, sustento que essas passagens contêm uma defesa, ao invés de uma rejeição sumária, do que eu alego ser o núcleo daquela doutrina. Recorro ao comentário de A. N. Prior ao § 134 das Investigações para salientar a estrutura anafórica do exemplo que dá Wittgenstein do uso, na linguagem ordinária, de uma variável proposicional. Encerro a discussão com um breve aceno à vulnerabilidade da fundação (grounding) de cadeias anafóricas.AbstractI offer an interpretation of Wittgenstein’s remarks in Philosophical Investigations (§§ 134-6) about the doctrine of a ‘general propositional form’ as it was presented in the Tractatus. Against the prevailing reading, I argue that these sections contain a vindication, rather than an out and out rejection, of what I claim to be the kernel of that doctrine. I make use of A. N. Prior’s gloss on § 134 of the Investigations to underscore the anaphoric structure of Wittgenstein’s example of the use, in ordinary language, of a propositional variable. I round up the discussion with a brief glance at the vulnerability of grounding of anaphoric chains.
Sobre Linguagem e Ética
Authors: Jourdan Camila
Published: July 2023

O objetivo geral deste artigo é contribuir para as reflexões sobre as relações entre ética e linguagem a partir da obra de Wittgenstein, buscando compreender em que medida há uma irredutível dimensão ética envolvida nos limites da significação. Para tanto, retomamos as considerações sobre ética presentes no Tractatus, nos Notebooks 1914-1916 e na Conferência sobre Ética. A maior parte dos desenvolvimentos deste texto versa sobre a abordagem do ponto de contato entre ética, lógica e ontologia, levando em contaa influência de Schopenhauer na primeira filosofia de Wittgenstein. Nosso horizonte, entretanto, consiste em contribuir para questão dos desacordos profundos, no âmbito da sua filosofia tardia, no que se refere aos princípios éticos radicalmente distintos. Sobre isso, estamos conscientes de que aqui apenas tocamos a matéria, indicando caminhos possíveis, e que o presente trabalho constitui um passo a ser retomado em análises futuras.AbstractThe general objective of this paper is to contribute to reflections on the relations between ethics and language based on Wittgenstein’s work, seeking to understand the extent to which there is an irreducible ethical dimension involved in the limits of meaning. Therefore, we return to the considerations on ethics present in the Tractatus; in Notebooks 1914-1916 and in the A Lecture on Ethics. Most of the developmentsin this paper deal with approaching the point of contact between ethics, logic and ontology, taking into account Schopenhauer’s influence on Wittgenstein’s first philosophy. Our horizon, however, is to contribute to the issue of deep disagreements, within the scope of his later philosophy, with regard to radically different ethical principles. About this, we are aware that we are only touching on the matter here, indicating possible paths, and that the present work is a step to be taken up again in future analyses.
Conformal Prediction Intervals for Remaining Useful Lifetime Estimation
Authors: Javanmardi Alireza , Hüllermeier Eyke
Published: July 2023

The main objective of Prognostics and Health Management is to estimate the Remaining Useful Lifetime (RUL), namely, the time that a system or a piece of equipment is still in working order before starting to function incorrectly. In recent years, numerous machine learning algorithms have been proposed for RUL estimation, mainly focusing on providing more accurate RUL predictions. However, there are many sources of uncertainty in the problem, such as inherent randomness of systems failure, lack of knowledge regarding their future states, and inaccuracy of the underlying predictive models, making it infeasible to predict the RULs precisely. Hence, it is of utmost importance to quantify the uncertainty alongside the RUL predictions. In this work, we investigate the conformal prediction (CP) framework that represents uncertainty by predicting sets of possible values for the target variable (intervals in the case of RUL) instead of making point predictions. Under very mild technical assumptions, CP formally guarantees that the actual value (true RUL) is covered by the predicted set with a degree of certainty that can be prespecified. We study three CP algorithms to conformalize any single-point RUL predictor and turn it into a valid interval predictor. Finally, we conformalize two single-point RUL predictors, deep convolutional neural networks and gradient boosting, and illustrate their performance on the C-MAPSS datasets.

Published: July 2023

Introduction: Ebstein's anomaly is a rare disease, comprising less than 1% of all cases of congenital heart disease. Da
Silva et al, in 2004, described cone reconstruction of tricuspid valve, which can restore the tricuspid valve anatomy. This
repair technique has shown promising early and intermediate results. We present our experience with cone repair done over a period of 6 years at
the Department of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery, Vardhman Mahavir Medical College and Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi. Material
and Methods: 7 patients of Ebstein's anomaly have been treated with cone repair in our hospital from 2017 to 2022. This was a retrospective
study, where hospital records of all these patients were retrieved and studied. Patients were either traced from routine OPD follow-up or
telephonically. Pre-operative, post-operative and follow-up parameters were analysed using various statistical tools. Our study Results:
demonstrated good functional outcome after cone repair. There was signicant improvement in tricuspid regurgitation (p = 0.0003), transannular plane systolic excursion (p = 0.007) and New York Heart Association functional class (p = 0.004). Cone repair for Ebstein's Conclusion:
anomaly provides good short and mid-term outcome in experienced hands. The low morbidity and mortality associated with cone repair, in
addition to improvement in RV function and TR makes it the procedure of choice for Ebstein's anomaly, irrespective of the anatomical type.
However, long term studies with larger cohorts can provide better insight into the outcome of this novel procedure

Pun in English: Towards identifying its Equivalent Device(s) in Arabic
Authors: Al-Kawwaz Siham
Published: July 2023

The term pun refers to a common rhetorical device that involves playing upon words which are similar in form but different in meaning. It seems to be a universal phenomenon since it appears in literatures of all natural languages. In Arabic, it is observed that Arab authors are at odds when they write about this device. They often differ in identifying what represents it in Arabic rhetoric to the extent that they refer to distinctly different devices as its counterparts like tawriya, jinās or sometimes both. This draws a lot of confusion and raises some inquiries: Does tawriya equate jinās? if not, which one may represent pun in English? and what are the main reasons that have often caused such confusion and mismatching? Therefore, the present paper aims at investigating the rhetorical devices which are similar in their mechanism to the phenomenon of punning in English in an attempt to figure out what represents it in Arabic. It also draws attention to the formal typology of  this device in English to illustrate the sense of  mismatching which have appeared in previous studies when referring to its counterparts in Arabic.Key words: pun, wordplay, rhetoric, paronomasia, tawriya, jinās.

Published: July 2023

Teza/cel artykułu – celem artykułu jest przedstawienie rozwoju bibliografii zalecającej w Polsce w okresie powojennym, jej założeń teoretyczno-metodologicznych i realizacji praktycznej oraz przyczyn jej zaniku. Metody – zagadnienie przedstawiono na podstawie analizy piśmiennictwa, przykładów bibliografii zalecającej oraz tematyki poradników bibliograficznych, wydawanych w Bibliotece Narodowej. Wyniki/wnioski – Bibliografia zalecająca w Polsce opracowywana w okresie powojennym, a zwłaszcza w latach 40. i 50. wzorowana była na bibliografii zalecającej radzieckiej, w kolejnych dekadach pełniła rolę raczej bibliografii wyborowej, głównie jako pomoc w bibliotekach publicznych i szkolnych. Na zanik bibliografii zalecającej w Polsce w latach 90. XX w. złożył się splot różnych okoliczności, takich jak: niski poziom zainteresowania społecznego tym typem bibliografii i niewielkie jej wykorzystanie, pracochłonność, zwłaszcza przy znaczącym wzroście produkcji wydawniczej, dostęp do bibliograficznych baz danych, a także rezygnacja Biblioteki Narodowej z jej opracowywania.

Authors: Żołędowska-Król Beata
Published: July 2023

W artykule przedstawiono koncepcję zarządzania relacjami na bazie wiedzy pochodzącej od użytkowników biblioteki. Podkreślono, iż współczesna biblioteka, aby mogła sprawnie funkcjonować w otoczeniu, potrzebuje oceny swojej działalności ze strony środowiska zewnętrznego. Powinna więc poznawać potrzeby i opinie użytkowników oraz uwzględniać je w codziennej pracy. Korzystający z usług biblioteki nie mogą być traktowani jedynie jako bierni odbiorcy oferowanych usług, ale partnerzy, których należy angażować do współpracy i dzielenia się swoją wiedzą na temat biblioteki. Omówiono podstawowe źródła wiedzy o użytkowniku oraz narzędzia pomiaru jakości usług bibliotecznych, których wyniki mogą stanowić punkt wyjścia do wprowadzenia ulepszeń w bibliotece.
Od pakietu CDS/ISIS do NUKAT, WorldCat i procesy decyzyjne, nowe mozliwosci i szanse bibliotek instytutow naukowych
Authors: Gazicka-Wojtowicz Dorota
Published: July 2023

W artykule przedstawiono procesy decyzyjne, które doprowadziły do współpracy warszawskie biblioteki instytutów Polskiej Akademii Nauk z NUKAT-em, a za jego pośrednictwem do uczestniczenia w WorldCat i Google Scholar oraz rozpoczęcia budowy wspólnej biblioteki cyfrowej. Zwrócono uwagę na doradczą rolę Anny Paluszkiewicz. Przedstawiono korzyści wynikające ze współpracy w ramach „Porozumienia Instytutów Naukowych PAN w sprawie komputeryzacji bibliotek” oraz uczestnictwa we współtworzeniu NUKAT-u. W przypadku Centralnej Biblioteki Geografii i Ochrony Środowiska Instytutu Geografii i Przestrzennego Zagospodarowania PAN było to m.in.: przełamanie izolacji biblioteki, podniesienie kwalifikacji zawodowych bibliotekarzy, przyspieszenie katalogowania zbiorów, bardziej fachowa obsługa użytkowników, zmiana postrzegania pracowników biblioteki w środowisku lokalnym, możliwość oferowania kolejnych nowych usług.

Authors: Jasiewicz Justyna
Published: July 2023

W artykule przedstawiono wybrane wyniki badań przeprowadzonych przez autorkę na potrzeby rozprawy doktorskiej, dotyczącej kompetencji informacyjnych młodzieży w Polsce, Niemczech i Wielkiej Brytanii. Zaprezentowano dane ilustrujące wykorzystywanie poszczególnych źródeł informacji w procesie edukacji szkolnej przez młodzież z Polski, Niemiec i Wielkiej Brytanii oraz ocenę wiarygodności informacji pochodzących z tych źródeł. Wyniki badań zestawiono z analizą Podstawy programowej kształcenia ogólnego dla szkół podstawowych oraz Podstawy programowej kształcenia ogólnego dla gimnazjów i szkół ponadgimnazjalnych, których ukończenie umożliwia uzyskanie świadectwa dojrzałości po zdaniu egzaminu maturalnego, obydwu z 2009 r. Dzięki takiemu podejściu wskazana została wyraźna rozbieżność pomiędzy potrzebami i zachowaniami informacyjnymi młodych ludzi a celami kształcenia informacyjnego nakreślonymi w Podstawach programowych.

PODRÓŻ SŁUŻBOWA MARII PISARSKIEJ. BIBLIOTEKARKA PAŃSTWOWEGO MUZEUM ZOOLOGICZNEGO W WIELKIEJ BRYTANII W 1947 ROKU
Authors: Kowalski Hubert , Cegliński Arkadiusz , Zabłocki Wojciech
Published: July 2023

Teza/cel artykułu – Artykuł wpisuje się w trend publikacji źródeł ar- chiwalnych, co jest ważnym elementem rozwoju współczesnej nauki. ujęte w nim opracowanie sprawozdania Marii Pisarskiej z jej podróży do Anglii w 1947 r. ma na celu przybliżenie specyfiki pracy polskich badaczy, a przede wszystkim bibliotekarzy i muzealników w powojennych realiach. Metody – w pracy prze- prowadzono kwerendę źródłową, opracowano i krytycznie przeanalizowano materiały archiwalne powiązane z Marią Pisarską i Państwowym Muzeum zoo- logicznym (obecnie Muzeum i instytut zoologii PAN). Wnioski – analiza spra- wozdania pozwoliła na ukazanie kierunku działań polskich bibliotekarzy i mu- zealników po ii wojnie światowej, tj. dążenia do przywrócenia funkcjonowania instytucji naukowych na poziomie nieodbiegającym od standardów zachodnio- europejskich. Wyjazd Pisarskiej miał charakter komparatystyczny, miał na celu poznanie i porównanie metod działań i organizacji angielskich bibliotek. Materiał badawczy potwierdził również ciągłość kontaktów pomiędzy polskimi a zagra- nicznymi jednostkami naukowymi, który zaowocował szybką odbudową ich re- lacji po wojnie.
