Hysteresis and path dependence in economic analysis: formalizations, causes and implications
Authors: Dutt Amitava Krishna
Published: November 2023

This paper argues that history, path dependence and hysteresis should have a much greater role in economic analysis than they do at present. To do so, it first reviews several meanings of hysteresis and path dependence using different abstract formulations and discusses applications of these approaches to economic analysis to examine the aspects of the economy to which they have been applied, and the causes and effects of these applications. It then suggests a taxonomy of the broad causes of path dependence. It concludes by summarizing the argument for giving these phenomena a much greater role in models and analyses, and makes some additional comments about these phenomena and their incorporation into economic analysis.
Violencia de Género y Resolución Comunitaria de Conflictos en los Centros Educativos
Authors: Martín Casabona Noemí , Tellado Itxaso
Published: November 2023

Gender violence is a reality in educational centers of which there is not many data. On the other hand the existing cases are frequently hidden behind general conflicts or bullying. In order to act on this problem, this article is based on two research projects funded by the Catalan Government and the transformational project of Learning Communities to present the community model of conflict resolution. This model is based on the participation of all the community, establishing common norms and egalitarian dialog among other elements.
Gender differences in the meaning of dating and marriage among international students from Turkey
Authors: Delevi Rakel , Bugay Asli
Published: November 2023

In this qualitative study, we interviewed 12 female and 10 male graduate students from Turkey. All of the participants have been living in the US for at least a year. Given that the collectivistic Turkish culture is very different than the more individualistic American culture, we aimed at understanding how men and women’s meaning of dating and marriage changed as a result of living in the US. We conducted semi-structured interviews to understand the gender differences in the experience of change as experienced by the participants. The results and implications for cross-cultural research are discussed.
Luce Irigaray's Aesthetic
Authors: Daley Linda
Published: November 2023

In this paper I examine some key texts in philosopher Luce Irigaray’s oeuvre that I name her aesthetic of sexual difference. Her aesthetic emerges both from critical engagements with women artists and theories of subjectivity formation and cultural formation. I argue that for Irigaray, art- making has an essential role in the thinking and practice of sexual difference. I also argue that because Irigaray reconfigures the terms on which aesthetics traditionally relies, her aesthetic is methodologically indicative, rather than substantively prescriptive of how sexual difference and sexuate culture might be represented.
Gender biased representation in learning materials in Nigeria educational system
Authors: Mustapha Abolaji Samuel
Published: November 2023

Educational processes and practices have long been recognised as reproducing those gender relations that society endorses - its gender ideology. In this study, we examine educational materials that are used in Nigerian educational system for the gender ideology that they tend to reflect and reinforce.Content analysis and discourse mode were used to analyse seven widely used English Language textbooks for Junior Secondary School students in Nigeria.Findings reveal over-representation of males in the public sphere, especially in a range of professions, politics, requisite qualities, accomplishments, and contributions, on the one hand. Women, on the other hand, are overrepresented in the private sphere of home, as mothers and wives. Thus, males are rendered more visible in the public sphere than females; the latter are rendered more visible in the home sphere than males who are rarely represented in that domain. These findings indicate gender-biased learning materials that might be inimical to achieving gender equality in and through education consequently suggesting that these learning materials might be long overdue for reform to reflect gender fairness that is in consonance with Nigeria’s National Gender Policy goals. Keywords: gender ideology, equality, education, learning materials, Nigeria, policy     Representación de sesgo de género en los libros de texto en inglés en el sistema educativo de NigeriaResumenPrácticas y procesos educativos durante mucho tiempo han sido reconocidas como reproducir las relaciones de género que la sociedad apoya - su ideología de género. En este estudio, examinamos los materiales educativos que se utilizan en sistema educativo nigeriano para la ideología de género que tienden a reflejar y reforzar. Análisis del contenido y el modo de discurso fueron utilizados para analizar siete libros de lengua inglesa ampliamente utilizados para los estudiantes de escuela secundaria en Nigeria. Los resultados revelan sobrerrepresentación de los varones en la esfera pública, especialmente en una variedad de profesiones, la política, cualidades necesarias, logros y contribuciones, por un lado. Las mujeres, por el contrario, son representadas en el ámbito privado del hogar, como madres y esposas. Por lo tanto, los machos se procesan más visibles en la esfera pública que las hembras; este último se procesa más visible en la esfera de la casa que los machos, que raramente están representados en ese dominio. Estos resultados indican materiales educacionales sesgo de género, que pueden ser perjudiciales para alcanzar la igualdad de género en y a través de la educación en consecuencia sugiriendo que estos materiales de aprendizaje pueden ser demorados reforma reflejar la equidad de género que está en consonancia con los objetivos de la política nacional de género de Nigeria.  Palabras clave: género ideología, igualdad, educación, política, Nigeria, los materiales de aprendizaje
Islamic attitudes and the support for Gender Equality and Democracy in Seven Arab Countries, and the role of anti-­â€Western feelings
Authors: Spierings Niels
Published: November 2023

In the societal and scientific discussions about the support for democracy and gender equality in the Arab Middle East, this study engages the triangular theory, which predicts that Islamic orientations influence gender equality attitudes and democracy negatively, and attitudes towards gender equality are also expected to lead to more democratic support, partly channelling the influence of Islam. This theory was tested on Arab Barometer data for seven countries, including three different dimensions of Islamic-religious identity: affiliation, piety, and political-Islamist attitudes. The analyses roughly back the triangular model, but for democratic support only the Islamist values seem important, partly working through economic gender equality attitudes. Attitudes towards women’s position in politics and education seem unrelated to democratic support. In addition, this study applies the gender and postcolonial concept of ‘othering’ to the triangular model. Theoretically it predicts that in the current neo-colonial era, anti-Western feelings might create more Islamic and less democracy and gender equal attitudes simultaneously, making Islam’s impact partly spurious. Empirically, this is modestly supported for the Islamist-democracy link only. However, anti-Western feelings do relate to gender equality, democratic support, and religious attitudes, and deserves more attention when studying democracy and gender equality in the Arab Middle East.
Fides - Scientia - Sapientia. Sobre los Siete Grados de la Sabiduría en Rabano Mauro
Authors: Sanchez-Prieto Ana Belén
Published: November 2023

Rabano Mauro escribió su De institutione clericorum (Sobre la educación de los clérigos) en 818 cuando aún era un maestro relativamente joven de la escuela monástica de Fulda (actual Alemania). Los capítulos 4-5 del libro III del De institutione describen un proceso ascensional conducente a la plenitud de la Sabiduría, que Rabano identifica con la plenitud del Amor. Este artículo trata de analizar este proceso ascensional y cada uno de sus siete grados en relación con otros textos del llamado Renacimiento Carolingio, especialmente los de Alcuino de York, y otros autores anteriores muy leídos y citados entonces, así como profundizar en el modo en que conceptos tales como sabiduría (sapientia), conocimiento (scientia) y educación (eruditio) se entendían en aquella época.
La Villa Altomedieval Gallega: Núcleo de Estructuración Social y Escenario de Feudalización
Authors: López Sabatel José Antonio
Published: November 2023

Este estudio pretende realizar una concisa aproximación, partiendo de la doble acepción del término villa, esto es, como núcleo poblacional y explotación agraria, de lo que fue la formación de la aldea en la Galicia altomedieval y su faceta de marco generador de estructuras de propiedad y parentesco, núcleo articulador de la jerarquía social en el seno del medio rural, así como de los mecanismos sociales que posibilitaron por parte de tal jerarquía y en mayor medida del sector monástico, la extensión del proceso feudalizador instrumentalizado por medio de diferentes estrategias señoriales entre las que hay que destacar la incomuniación, la profiliación y las cartas de precaria.
What We teach our Children: A Comparative Analysis of Indigenous Australians in Social Studies Curriculum, from the 1960s to the 1980s
Authors: Sharp Heather Louise
Published: November 2023

This article conducts a comparative analysis of topics connected to Indigenous Australians in the Social Studies curriculum taught in Queensland (Australia) schools in the 1 960s and in the 1 980s. Apple’s (2000) ‘mentioning’ is applied to examine the representations of this group. ‘Mentioning’ is used as a way to explain information that is included in a minimal way and does not cover the focus topic in any real depth or with engaged substance. Compared with the significant political and social gains made by Indigenous Australians, and their supporters, in the 1 960s, this article finds that the resulting effect on changes to school curriculum are minimal. Second, this article finds that the static nature of curriculum stands in stark contrast to the changing and changed discourses operating in the wider community. Third, this article asserts that the incorporation of important national history topics within an all-encompassing Social Studies curriculum, results in an a-historical, present-mindedness being taught to students in place of historical accuracy and rigour. Finally, the international importance of history/culture wars that many nations have experienced over the past ten to fifteen years is presented in this article, through direct links to school curriculum selection by governments and advisory boards.
El Franquismo Autárquico, la Mujer y la Educación Física
Authors: Ramírez-Macías Gonzalo
Published: November 2023

El objetivo de este artículo se centra en el ideal de mujer en España durante la Autarquía franquista (1939-1959) y como éste se transmitió a partir de la Educación Física y los deportes femeninos (natación, hockey, esquí, baloncesto y balonmano). En esta época la Educación Física y los deportes femeninos fueron dirigidos por la Sección Femenina, que se esforzó mucho por transmitir el ideal de mujer a partir de ellos. La investigación se centra en los conceptos y valores que, desde diferentes ámbitos (políticos, profesionales, culturales, religiosas, etc), definían a las mujeres y acabaron determinando sus vidas durante este período, y como todo ello se mostraba a través de las actividades físicas y deportivas propias de este género.
Oficio de Historiador, ¿Nuevo Paradigma o Positivismo?
Authors: Barros Carlos
Published: November 2023

Balance sobre las tendencias y los debates actuales e internacionales, desde una óptica trasatlántica y latina, sobre el método, la historiografía, la teoría y la relación con la sociedad de los historiadores del siglo XXI. Partiendo del preámbulo y las posiciones del Manifiesto de Historia a Debate (2001), y recogiendo los últimos debates de HAD en las redes sociales, analizamos la polarización historiográfica, entre los partidarios de nuevos paradigmas que no hacemos tabla rasa de las vanguardias del siglo XX, y los partidarios de un retorno al positivismo, aguijoneados por el posmodernismo radical. Repliegue historiográfico que estudiamos a través de frases, prácticas y lugares comunes, dichos y hechos dentro y fuera de aulas y despachos. Datos de tipo digital y oral que vienen manifestando, en cuanto al regreso de Ranke, una gran homogeneidad y transversalidad entre las diferentes especialidades, universidades y países.
La «Machine Jacobine»? un Fantasme Historiographique Revisité Ã l'aune d'un Exemple local: la Société Populaire de Honfleur (1791-1795)
Authors: Biard Michel
Published: November 2023

Outre les anciennes diatribes de Cochin contre la sociabilité jacobine, remises au goÃ»t du jour dans les années 1970, l’histoire des sociétés populaires, clubs politiques apparus pendant la Révolution française, a également dÃ» compter avec nombre de simplifications nés de la plume d’historiens soucieux de dégager des classements politiques Ã  l’échelle nationale. Ainsi, dans les années décisives que furent 1792 et 1793, les sociétés populaires ont pu Ãªtre recensées ici comme des « sociétés girondines », lÃ  comme des « sociétés montagnardes », tandis que plusieurs ouvrages et atlas historiques proposaient alors une vision nationale de cette partition. Hélas, les discours péjoratifs sur la « machine jacobine », d’une part, les classements politiques réalisés Ã  l’échelle nationale, de l’autre, reposent souvent sur des raisonnements trop généraux. L’exemple de la Société des Amis de la Constitution de Honfleur, ici présenté, vient souligner après plusieurs autres recherches l’inanité des raisonnements hérités de Cochin, mais aussi apporter des nuances aux traditionnels classements opérés entre les sociétés. En effet, lÃ  elle est supposée avoir été « girondine », un examen détaillé de ses archives prouve que les réalités sont infiniment plus mouvantes.
Globalización y cultura

Podría decirse que la globalización es el tema principal de nuestro tiempo. Es un proceso producido por la economía, y con importantes repercusiones sociales. Está surgiendo una nueva cultura tecnologías, aunque dominada por el capitalismo como sistema director. La cuestión dominante de este documento es la siguiente: ¿qué personalidad tiende a conformar esta nueva cultura? Si atendemos a sociólogos, especialmente a los sociólogos americanos, que nos hablan de "realidad virtual", deberíamos decir que se trata de una personalidad cuya percepción de lo real está seriamente dañada. Esto imposible que se conecte con la verdadera realidad, que es el otro hombre, en tanto que persona y fin en sí mismo.

Quando abordamos temáticas de cunho amplo de caráter que configura a democracia e a inclusão das pessoas, devemos ter bastante tato para que não causemos um grau de invisibilizarão de algum provável grupo de pessoas inclusas num contexto social, financeiro ou    que possuam algum tipo de limitação física ou mental. Para isto devemos sempre analisar o contexto econômico do país e na realidade de perspectiva das pessoas nas quais trabalhamos rotineiramente. Desta forma, sabemos que a educação há algumas décadas atrás era vista como privilégio onde, quem a seguia devia vir de família bem estruturada e amparada financeiramente  para que pudessem arcar com os estudos dos filhos de forma que isso não acarretasse na vulnerabilidade da família. Neste sentido, foram criadas vias para que mitigassem os efeitos exclusivistas de uma educação inteiramente presencial, tal como, a criação de ensinos utilizando do ensino remoto (online) para que esta educação apresentasse um caráter mais democrático e que realmente atendesse a todos. Obviamente a grande explosão deste recurso veio como resultado da tão temida pandemia causada pelo SARS-COV, porém, os aprendizados adquiridos neste período repercutem até os dias atuais e tendem a permanecer por um bom tempo. Associado a isto, temos a utilização da Inteligência Artificial como meio de amparo e ferramenta de apoio aos alunos inseridos neste modelo de educação tornando-a mais acessível e prática. No mais, este trabalho visa a análise de dados teóricos disponíveis em sites acadêmicos, e a partir deles realizar uma visão crítica correlacionando com minhas vivencias.

Published: November 2023

Muitos estudiosos definem as organizações como sendo um amplo processo, o qual se mostra dividido em múltiplos e importantes subprocessos. Com isso, entende-se que deve haver um bom gerenciamento nessas organizações, devendo ainda existir o aproveitamento de ferramentas que se mostrem realmente palpáveis, o que se faz claramente elementar quando se busca um desempenho de qualidade em cada um destes processos. Neste horizonte, encontra-se o ciclo PDCA, o qual colabora de maneira satisfatória no trabalho pertencente à gestão escolar. Pensando nisso, o desígnio deste estudo está em salientar a importância de um trabalho alicerçado pelo sistema PDCA no tão debatido sistema educacional. Para se discutir tal temática usou-se como metodologia a revisão bibliográfica, por meio da qual colheu-se dados encontrados em trabalhos publicados por outros estudiosos, tanto em livros, como em teses, periódicos e dissertações lidas em sites de pesquisas que se mostram confiáveis. Com isso, compreendeu-se o ciclo PDCA como sendo um exame e intervenção de apurado (s) processo (s), numa determinada organização (inclusive no campo educacional), buscando-se qualidade, sendo relevante lembrar ainda que sua sigla reflete importantes processos como: planejar, fazer, verificar e agir. Assim, compreende-se que, a partir do instante em que a gestão escolar aplica junto ao seu trabalho o ciclo PDCA ela mostra estar buscando uma melhoria no ensino de sua unidade escolar, entendendo que o ciclo PDCA contribui de maneira benéfica, para que haja realmente sucesso durante o andamento das atividades.

Authors: Sinaga Hasudungan
Published: November 2023

Degradation of the forest environment has a huge negative effect on the environment, economy, institutions, as well as society, especially in terms of accessibility of forest resources and biodiversity. Forest and land fires (“Karhutla”) in Indonesia have increased drastically this year during the dry season, according to the non-profit organization Madani Sustainable. Based on their monitoring findings, an area of 152,678 hectares is an indicative area for land fires and forest and land fires in Indonesia in August 2023 alone. This study aims to determine criminal liability for forest burning in Indonesia. This research uses normative legal methods which are supported by literature reviews from various scientific journal sources published in 2019-2023. The research results show that criminal liability has been regulated in Article 108 of Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Management.
The Impact of Videogame Publishers on E-Athlete’s Rights and Obligations
Authors: Novák Pál
Published: November 2023

E-sports offer a career opportunity, a life goal, for many people. In this industry, the pressing question of whether it qualifies as a sport or not often arises, but one aspect rarely examined within professional boundaries is the legal standpoint. One major difference between e-sports and traditional sports is that traditional sports (e.g., football, hockey, basketball, karate) represent freely conducted activities, whereas e-sports are enabled by software, video games, which have copyright holders. Therefore, video games can only be used within the boundaries defined by copyright law, not just for consumers in the traditional sense, but also for e-athletes. This article examines the impact of copyright holders on the rights and obligations of recreational players who are considering or have set out to become e-athletes. The main problem is that the life paths of an e-athlete and a regular videogame player have a common starting point: recreational gaming, usually at home. The following article will focus on the EULA of the most popular esport game nowadays, the League of Legends.

Authors: Maheshwari Vivek , Cowlagi Sujata
Published: November 2023

Pregnancy is a unique phase in the life of a woman. This exciting and vulnerable time initiates many changes at a physical, psychological, and emotional level. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of integrated yogic practices on the quality of life among pregnant women. For this pilot study, we enrolled 20 pregnant women who were between 9 and 25 weeks at gestation. Single group pre-post design was used. An integrated yoga module specially developed for antenatal conditions was administered over a 12-week integrated yoga module to the participants. Quality of Life Scale was used as a tool of assessment. Data was collected at base and at the end of 12 weeks after the protocol was administered. Paired sample T-test was applied using SPSS software to analyze this data. Statistical analysis of the data collected, demonstrated that value of t test was 3.177 which was significant at 0.01 level The findings showed that yoga intervention was efficacious in improving the Quality of Life. No adverse effects of yoga were observed among those who practiced yoga during pregnancy. The results demonstrate that antenatal yoga may be an effective intervention to enhance quality of life. More rigorous studies over a longer duration with larger sample sizes would be required to establish a definitive connection between yoga intervention and quality of life among antenatal cohort.
The Relevance of the Dars-e-Nizami Curriculum to the Development of Modern Islamic Religious Education in Pakistan
Authors: Mahmood Nadeem
Published: November 2023

ABSTRACT

Traditional education in Pakistan has deep and varied roots, primarily due to the cultural and ethnic diversity that exists in the country. The unstoppable flow of globalization threatens to shift cultural heritage including traditional education in Pakistan. Thus, efforts are needed so that traditional education is not abandoned and remains relevant to current developments. The aim of this research is to determine the relevance of the Dars-e-Nizami curriculum for the development of modern Islamic religious education in Pakistan. This research is field research combined with literature study. The data collection instrument used was semi-structured interviews. This research was conducted in 15 school institutions, both formal and informal, in 5 big cities in Pakistan. The results of this research found that the Dars-e-Nizami curriculum has several limitations in terms of relevance to modern needs. Islamic educational institutions retain Dars-e-Nizami for the reason that they see it as a way to preserve and inherit the classical Islamic intellectual tradition as well as to maintain a strong understanding of the Islamic religion among students. Education based on the Dars-e-Nizami curriculum still has an important place in the highly conservative and traditional Muslim community. The implications of this research are that schools in Pakistan do not abandon traditional education or curriculum, but continue to preserve it by making adjustments that are relevant to current developments

Tiga masalah utama pengembangan panas bumi di Indonesia yakni harga jual listrik, lelang wilayah kerja, dan risiko hulu yang tinggi. Ketiganya akan bermuara pada satu keadaan yaitu proyek panas bumi yang belum mencapai level keekonomian. Salah satu usaha mengurangi risiko hulu yang tinggi, pemerintah telah menginisiasi Program Government Drilling. Selain tujuan utama untuk menurunkan risiko hulu panas bumi, secara tidak langsung program ini juga dapat menghasilkan pendapatan negara. Untuk menilai keberhasilan Program Government Drilling ini maka perlu dilakukan evaluasi tidak hanya dari sisi teknis, namun juga dari sisi keuangan. Berdasarkan hasil evaluasi ini diharapkan akan menjadi bahan pertimbangan para pemangku kepentingan dalam mengambil keputusan tentang keberlanjutan program ini. Evaluasi keuangan ini akan menilai apakah biaya yang dikeluarkan sebagai investasi menghasilkan tingkat pengembalian yang diinginkan. Dalam hal ini adalah perbandingan antara biaya yang dikeluarkan dari APBN dan pendapatan yang diperoleh pemerintah dari pajak dan PNBP dengan menggunakan parameter nilai Benefit Cost Ratio (BCR) sebagai indikator penilaiannya. Hasil penelitian memperlihatkan nilai BCR pada arus kas pemerintah dari Proyek Nage adalah sebesar 2,1. Nilai tersebut menunjukkan bahwa setiap rupiah biaya yang dikeluarkan pemerintah dalam proyek tersebut akan menghasilkan pendapatan negara lebih dari dua kali lipatnya. Dengan menggunakan parameter tingkat pengembalian, yaitu nilai Internal Rate of Return (IRR), proyek ini menghasilkan nilai hampir dua kali lipat dari tingkat pengembalian yang ditentukan apabila proyek menggunakan APBN. Selain itu, valuasi Proyek Nage ini berdasarkan nilai Net Present Value (NPV) menunjukkan nilai positif (NPV>0). Berdasarkan ketiga indikator di atas, dapat disimpulkan Program Government Drilling khususnya Proyek Nage ini layak untuk dilanjutkan. Namun demikian jika dilihat dari sisi arus kas pengembang, Proyek Nage sebesar 30 MWe ini masih kurang menarik bagi investor pengembang swasta karena nilai indikator kelayakan proyek yang bernilai negatif atau tingkat pengembalian masih di bawah nilai yang diinginkan (IRR < MARR – Minimum Attractive Rate of Return). Proyek ini masih layak dilanjutkan oleh pengembang dari BUMN yang biasanya memiliki nilai MARR yang lebih rendah dan keistimewaan dalam parameter pinjaman dan depresiasi dibandingkan pengembang swasta.

This study aims to examine the effect of interest in learning on physics practicum abilities on Newton's Law material in physics education students. The method used is regression analysis with a quantitative descriptive approach. The dependent variable in this study was students' practicum ability, while the independent variable was learning interest as measured by indicators of student interest in practicum, student attention in practicum, and student involvement in practicum. The data used in this study were obtained through primary data collection through questionnaires which were distributed to physics education students who were taking a physics course on Newton's Laws. The research sample consisted of 100 respondents who were randomly selected. The collected data were then analyzed using the regression method to evaluate the effect of the independent variables on the dependent variable. The results of the regression analysis show that simultaneously, the learning interest variable (student interest in practicum, student attention in practicum, and student involvement in practicum) has an effect of 60% on students' practicum ability. This means that 60% of the variation in students' practicum abilities can be explained by the learning interest variable studied, while the remaining 40% is influenced by other factors outside the regression equation. The resulting regression equation is Student Practicum Ability = 53.730 + 0.244 * Student Interest in Practicum + 0.631 * Student Attention in Practicum + 0.588 * Student Involvement in Practicum. However, when individual significance tests were carried out, the p-value for each independent variable (student interest in practicum, student attention in practicum, and student involvement in practicum) was greater than 0.05. Even though interest in learning has a simultaneous effect on the ability of physics practicum on Newton's Law material for physics education students, individually, the variables of interest in learning do not have a significant effect. This shows that there are other factors outside the regression equation that can affect students' practicum abilities. Therefore, further research is needed to identify these factors and dig deeper into the relationship between interest in learning and students' physics practicum abilities.Keywords: Effect of Interest in Learning; Physics Learning; Newton's laws

Published: November 2023

This study aimed to explore the challenges encountered by Intermediate Elementary Teachers and develop strategies to address these hurdles. It was a qualitative research endeavor that didn't rely on statistical data. The study involved a selection of Intermediate Elementary Teachers, with three participants from each of Grades 4, 5, and 6, all based at Naval Central School SpEd Center, P.I. Garcia St., Naval, Biliran. Teachers willingly participated through convenience sampling. Conducting this research during the COVID-19 pandemic involved structured virtual interviews through questionnaires featuring open-ended questions and in-depth interviews designed by the researcher. Narrative Analysis was the chosen data analysis technique. Teachers faced challenges related to module planning, preparation, distribution, monitoring of student learning, assessment of student outputs, and providing feedback on their performance. In response to these challenges within the modular distance learning model, teachers employed diverse strategies, including effective time management, innovative teaching methods, adaptation to new educational trends stemming from the "new normal," flexibility, the development of alternative plans, optimism, patience, and acquiring the essential skills for the evolving educational landscape. This study underscores the need for collaboration among various stakeholders and government entities to formulate alternative solutions for the multitude of issues that may emerge during the teaching and learning process, especially in light of the constraints posed by the ongoing pandemic.

Published: November 2023

The world’s development infrastructure is at risk from landslides and their consequences in many areas across the globe. There is evidence that landslide disaster is increasing in developing countries. Lesser Himalaya of Nepal is highly susceptible for landslide and various people lose their life and property each year due to landslide. The main aim of this study was to prepare 1) to identify the specific characteristics of landslides in Jumre Khola watershed. 2) To relate the rainfall intensity with landslides distribution in Jumre Khola watershed. & 3) To prepare landslide susceptibility map of Jumre Khola watershed. For this, a detailed landslide inventory was prepared by field survey and Google Earth imagery interpretation. This inventory map was separated into two groups for training the model and validating the result. A landslide susceptibility maps was developed by WOE model. Finally, validation of the model was done by using the success rate curve analysis. The verification result showed that the model performed very well with the success rate of 86.79%. The generalized linear model was performed between landslide and rainfall to know if there is significant relationship between landslide and rainfall. The Jumre Khola watershed is selected for the present study due to the presence of a large number of landslides in the region as well as due to the presence of huge amount of settlement in the mountain slopes and the river valley that are in high risk of landslides. The produced susceptibility map can be useful for general land-use planning, as well as it can provide information to the planners for the adaptation of appropriate mitigating measures for landside in the Jumre Khola watershed.

More than 90% of the world’s student population has been affected by the virus, and the pressure on higher education systems to change their approach to distance learning (e-learning) has been maximized. In response to this threat, all educational systems and professionals are trying to act appropriately by finding effective solutions to minimize the adverse effects of the pandemic on the field of education.
Comparative Study on the Effect of Urine from Pregnant and Non-Pregnant Women and Algafer LPF Plus on the Length of Epicotyl to the Germinating Corn (Zea Mays) Seeds in Hydroponics
Authors: Macabago Jinky M. , Sharif Namraida M.
Published: November 2023

This study was conducted to analyze the effect of urine from pregnant and non-pregnant women and Algafer LPF Plus on the germination rate of Corn (Zea mays) seeds in hydroponics by determining the length of epicotyl in various percentage concentrations of urine and Algafer. There were four (4) treatments used namely: T1 (0.75%), T2 (5%), T3 (10%), and T4 as control. Treatment was done by allowing the plants to grow in water culture and adding different concentrations of the test solution in every test system. A total of fifteen (15) seedlings per replicate were considered and the average length of epicotyl was taken. The data were then subjected to a 3X4 Factorial Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT). Results of the study indicated that the rate of germination increases at a 10% level concentration of urine from pregnant and non-pregnant women, whereas in Algafer, concentrations in T2 (5%) and T3 (10%) caused seed rotting. Among the three test solutions, both urines from pregnant and non-pregnant women have been shown to cause growth by promoting cell elongation on epicotyl. DMRT for both urines of pregnant and non-pregnant women revealed that T3 (10%) was significantly different from the other treatment means. In Algafer LPF Plus, DMRT revealed that T2 and T3 were not different from each other, likewise with T1 and T4. These findings indicated that certain components in urine are essential to the germination of corn seeds. The presence of these essential elements in plants plays a vital role in attaining earlier and greater growth. The waste product, therefore, excreted by the kidney can now be used as an inexpensive substitute for fertilizers for faster germination at the proper concentration.

Published: November 2023

Osmanlı müverrihlerinin “Kanûnî” unvanıyla Batılı yazarların ise “Muhteşem” lakabıyla andıkları I. Süleyman’ın 1538 tarihli Karaboğdan Seferi bu çalışmanın temasını teşkil etmiştir. 1456 yılında Osmanlının vasal zincirine eklenen Boğdan’ın stratejik konumu itibariyle Osmanlı, Habsburg, Leh ve Kırım toprakları arasında bulunması, Karadeniz hâkimiyeti ve ticaretinin kilit noktası olması ve kuzey Karadeniz sahili üzerinden doğuya giden en kestirme yol güzergâhı üzerinde bulunması sebebiyle Osmanlı bölgede etkin bir hâkimiyet tesis etmiştir. Ancak 1527’de voyvoda seçilen Petru Rareş, Osmanlının farklı cephelerde uğraşmak zorunda kaldığı problemler yüzünden vasallığa aykırı bir politika takip ederek bu hâkimiyete sekte vurma gayreti içinde olmuştur. Buna bir süre göz yuman padişah mütemadiyen devam eden Petru Rareş’in serkeşliklerine bir son vermek için çıktığı seferde Osmanlı ordusunun azametini sergileyen bir yürüyüşle Boğdan’ın merkezine girerek bölgedeki Osmanlı hâkimiyetini sağlamlaştıran kararlar almıştır. Özellikle Boğdan’ın güneyinde Prut ve Turla nehirleri arasında kalan mıntıkayı sancak şeklinde teşkilatlandırarak bölgede idari, siyasi, içtimai ve ticari anlamda Osmanlı lehine bir düzenleme yapmıştır. Bu çalışma da sancak yapılan Bucak özelinde üç buçuk asrı, Boğdan genelinde ise dört asrı aşan Osmanlı varlığının ve hâkimiyetinin kırılma noktalarından biri olan seferin kronolojik ve tematik uyum içerisinde detaylı bir tetkikini amaçlamıştır. Osmanlı açısından olumlu Boğdan açısından ise olumsuz anlamda bir değer taşıyan seferin monografik bir tarzda irdelendiği çalışmada başta ana kaynak niteliğinde olan dönem ve yakın dönem Osmanlı kronikleri ile Osmanlı ve Romen ana kaynaklarını esas alan ikinci elden kaynaklar kullanılmıştır.

This study was conducted to figure out the impact of digital learning on the performance results of third-year hospitality management students. It specifically aims to accomplish the following objectives: determine the student's level of self-efficacy through online learning; ascertain their accomplishments in laboratory performance through virtual learning; and establish an action plan that can be implemented based on the results listed below. This study employed descriptive-correlational research methods. The study's findings indicated that third-year students had high levels of confidence in their abilities, leading researchers to conclude that online laboratory activities benefit students' abilities and knowledge. In addition, the survey discovered that, apart from housekeeping, student laboratory activity successes in terms of culinary and kitchen essentials were moderate. The final finding was that while there is no significant correlation between students' self-efficacy in terms of housekeeping skills and attainments in laboratory activity and their actual performances, there is a significant correlation between students' self-efficacy in terms of knowledge and attainments in laboratory activity and actual performances

A mood-based music recommendation system that uses Brainwaves is the latest way to recommend music based on people's brainwaves, based on their current mood. The technology records brain wave activity using electroencephalogram (EEG) signals and uses machine learning algorithms to categorize the user's mood. This system provides music recommendations based on the user's mood, which increases listening enjoyment and emotional endurance. The proposed method can revolutionize music recommendation systems, providing a more personalized and natural listening experience. DREAMER and GUINEA BISSAU EEG data is the database used in this research. Both data were obtained by measuring the Emotive EPOC device with 14 channels. After further processing, classification and recommendation, playlists are automatically created and played based on the user's current mood. Both methods provide better performance in terms of computing time compared to existing literature algorithms. The accuracy of the first approach was 94%, and the classification accuracy of the second approach using PCA and SVM was 96.8% and 96% for valence and passion, respectively.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to describe the emergency department (ED) visit chief complaints and discharge diagnoses of patients with an opioid use disorder (OUD) empaneled to a primary care clinic.

Design: ED visits were retrospectively reviewed through electronic health records. Patients with a history of using multiple substances and medical or psychiatric conditions were compared to those without these conditions.

Setting: This study was conducted at Harbor-UCLA ED, a safety-net level one trauma center.

Patients and participants: Eligible participants were empaneled to the Harbor-UCLA Family Health Center with a diagnosis of OUD between January 1, 2018, and December 31, 2020.

Main outcome measures: The primary outcome measures included number of ED visits, hospital admissions, chief complaints, and discharge diagnoses.

Results: The total number of patients was 59. The most common chief complaints were musculoskeletal (34 percent), gastrointestinal (18 percent), general (13 percent), and skin (8.6 percent). The most common discharge diagnoses were musculoskeletal (27 percent), gastrointestinal (20 percent), infectious (11 percent), substance use disorder related (11 percent), psychiatric (7 percent), and cardiovascular (7 percent). Co-occurring alcohol use was associated with a higher number of visits, 3.18 versus 1.15 (p = 0.021), and a higher percentage of patients with frequent visits, 46 percent versus 8 percent (p = 0.008). Patients with diabetes had more frequent visits, 40 percent versus 10 percent (p = 0.036), and were more likely to be admitted, 43 percent versus 15 percent (p = 0.010).

Conclusions: This study highlights the importance of screening and the management of alcohol use and diabetes among patients with OUD.
