Adentrando aos arquivos: formação e aspectos da atuação docente de Pórcia Guimarães Alves (1917-1962)
Authors: Ribeiro Alexandra Ferreira Martins
Published: August 2022

A professora Pórcia Guimarães Alves, nascida em 1917 e falecida em 2005, dedicou boa parte de seu tempo à educação. Pórcia teve acesso a uma formação educacional e docente privilegiada, possibilitada tanto por sua família quanto pelo Estado. O período de sua instrução elementar, até a conclusão do curso de Pedagogia, foi marcado pela paulatina inserção dos conhecimentos científicos da Sociologia, da Biologia e da Psicologia, intuindo o desenvolvimento de novos padrões em educação e na especialização científica dos professores. Pórcia enfatizou os estudos da Psicologia ligada às questões educacionais, no Curso de Pedagogia e em congressos e cursos complementares. Seus conhecimentos da Psicologia aplicados à Educação concretizaram-se nas ações que transitaram entre sua docência, na Universidade Federal do Paraná, com a instalação e a direção do Centro de Estudos e Pesquisas Educacionais (CEPE), da Escola Mercedes Stresser e do Instituto Decroly. Logo, nesse estudo, procurou-se responder ao questionamento: como se deu a formação e a atuação docente de Pórcia Guimarães Alves, entre o período de 1917 a 1962? Elencaram-se os objetivos específicos: identificar, na composição familiar de Pórcia, elementos que colaboraram para sua formação docente; pesquisar as influências institucionais na sua formação docente; e investigar a formação complementar, a inserção profissional e alguns aspectos da atuação docente de Pórcia. Nessa perspectiva, a pesquisa seguiu o caminho da busca bibliográfica e documental, com abordagem qualitativa. Como aporte teórico-metodológico, foi basilar o estudo de Viñao Frago (1995) sobre a possibilidade de estudos na História da Educação por meio da História Cultural; Goodson (1992), no que tange à integração do professor e a pessoa do professor em um único ser, e de Loriga (2011) acerca das perspectivas da biografia na historiografia. Ao longo de sua vida, Pórcia constituiu um diversificado acervo de documentos que variaram desde dados de seus familiares, informações e certificados de seu período escolar, diários, recortes de jornais, cartas, publicações, até pesquisas que compõem um extenso arquivo pessoal. Para a análise desses documentos,a pesquisa valeu-se dos estudos de Gomes (2004) e Farge (2009) e da análise de conteúdo proposta por Bardin (2015). Quanto à utilização da memória como fonte histórica, foi importante a contribuição dos conceitos de “arquivar a própria vida”, de Artières (1998), e de “memória silenciada”, de Pollak (1989). Para a contextualização histórica, cultural, social, econômica e política da pesquisa, deram apoio os estudos realizados por Miguel (1997); Maluf e Mott (1998); Gomes (1999; 2013); Del Priore (2005); Souza (2008) e Vieira (2015; 2017). As análises dos documentos evidenciaram que a formação docente de Pórcia foi resultado de sua vontade de ser  rofessora,somada ao ambiente proporcionado por sua família e pelo Estado.
Eu... Uma pesquisadora narrativa: aprendendo a pensar e escrever narrativamente
Authors: Souza Valeska Virgínia Soares
Published: August 2022

Nesta pesquisa autobiográfica, narro e componho sentidos do meu percurso de pesquisadora, permeado de tensões, de incertezas e de aprendizagem. Meu objetivo inicial foi compreender narrativamente a experiência de me constituir uma pesquisadora narrativa, ao aprender a pensar e a escrever narrativamente. Um desdobramento desse primeiro objetivo, ao narrar a experiência e redigir o texto de pesquisa, foi perceber como são algumas interações entre os membros de um grupo de pesquisa, ou comunidade responsiva. Meu trabalho foi norteado pelas premissas da pesquisa narrativa, segundo Clandinin e Connelly (2000; 2015), dentre outros pesquisadores. Inicio este artigo com minha narrativa, apresentando-me e descrevendo o meu contexto: como fui provocada a viver uma história de pesquisa embasada nos pressupostos teórico-metodológicos da pesquisa narrativa. Posteriormente, narro o meu entrar no entremeio da pesquisa narrativa. Conto histórias vividas nos encontros do grupo de pesquisa, apontando para a importância da prática e do aspecto relacional, e histórias que vivi como parecerista e como organizadora de eventos, reconhecendo minha antiga concepção de busca por verdades e a transição para honrar o fazer colaborativo. Analiso o meu pensar e o meu escrever em direção ao fazer narrativo, tanto em termos das pesquisas que desenvolvo e para além do pesquisar. Narro tensões vivenciadas, ao aprender a pensar e escrever narrativamente, e concluo que o processo é aberto, e o tornar-me pesquisadora está sempre em progresso.
A tessitura dos ateliês biográficos: olhares entrecruzados
Authors: Sousa Sandra Novais , Nogueira Eliane Greice Davanço , De Souza Dirlaine Beatriz França , Rocha Cristiane Ribeiro Cabral
Published: August 2022

O artigo objetiva trazer ao debate as possibilidades oferecidas pelos Ateliês Biográficos de Projeto para as pesquisas em Educação. Como procedimentos metodológicos, realizou-se uma revisão sistemática de pesquisas acadêmicas que indicavam a utilização de ateliês como dispositivo de pesquisa e formação. Os resultados apontaram que os Ateliês se inserem em uma forma outra de se pensar a investigação científica e os modos pelos quais ocorre a aprendizagem dos professores e outros atores educacionais. Os elementos essenciais para que um pesquisador intitule um espaço formativo de pesquisa como ateliê, no sentido aqui utilizado, passam pela promoção de situações que interliguem as dimensões temporais (passado, presente e futuro), pela produção e socialização de histórias de vida – heterobiografia – e pela elaboração de um projeto de futuro, em um processo autoformativo

Analisa-se, na perspectiva de licenciandos, professores iniciantes e experientes, as contribuições para a aprendizagem da docência provocada pelo intercâmbio online desses sujeitos em um espaço virtual sobre dilemas enfrentados na docência e as dificuldades encontradas. O caminho da pesquisa foi sendo delineado continuamente paralelo à proposta formativa. As narrativas escritas pelos envolvidos ao término da formação online, foi a principal fonte de dados para este estudo. Ao agregar as diversidades geracionais de estudantes e professores em diferentes fases da carreira, esse espaço online permitiu a reflexão sobre os tempos: antes e agora; o estágio e a experiência docente; sobre os espaços de ação de diferentes atores e sua práxis transformadora, especialmente, de si mesmos. Nos movimentos de construção da identidade como docentes, a diversidade de experiências, de conhecimentos, de posicionamentos funcionou como “oxigênio novo” nos processos de aprendizagem da docência.
Perguntas e invenções: atravessamentos na formação de um educador ambiental
Authors: De Cougo Alexandre Cougo , Dias Cleuza Maria Sobral
Published: August 2022

O presente artigo constitui-se em um universo repleto de perguntas, desenhando-se a partir delas enquanto um exercício de escrita metarreflexiva, pela retomada das produções textuais constituídas pelo sujeito-autor em uma vivência. Desta forma, guiados pela pergunta “O que é isso que se mostra de formação do educador no campo da educação ambiental na experiência da escrita de textos reflexivos?” – foram analisados oito textos individuais produzidos por um dos autores deste artigo, a partir das reflexões sobre o estudo da hermenêutica e da educação ambiental construídas na processualidade dialógica em uma disciplina da pós-graduação. Sendo assim, a partir da leitura e análise das produções reflexivas foi possível perceber que alguns pontos de compreensão do processo de formação do educador no campo da educação ambiental se destacaram nos textos estudados, tais como: o encharcamento de coisas e o processo de interpretação de si-outro-mundo-texto; a percepção da denúncia/anúncio e da transformação como possibilidade; a leitura da historicidade e da linguagem; e o estranhamento/existência e a escuta/sentir.
Tornar-se professora: o saber da experiência na pesquisa narrativa
Authors: Simas Vanessa França , Prado Guilherme do Val Toledo , Domingo Segovia Jesús
Published: August 2022

Este artigo objetiva revelar como ocorreu o processo de construção de saberes da experiência, a partir da prática de uma escrita narrativa reflexiva compartilhada, durante a constituição profissional de uma professora iniciante. A metodologia utilizada foi a pesquisa narrativa, os dados são as narrativas da professora e as interlocuções que ela estabeleceu com um grupo de profissionais da educação. O ato de narrar possibilitou a percepção da necessidade de mudanças que, por sua vez, orientou a professora na organização de práticas que possibilitassem outras ações de ensino. Ao escrever sobre o vivido, colocando-se num lugar exotópico, a professora tinha acesso a excedentes de visão da prática e das relações, o que a mobilizava a pensar em mudanças a favor das crianças. Narrar e pesquisar a própria prática mostraram-se instrumentos potentes da construção de saberes da experiência. Assim, sugere-se o uso formativo da narrativa, sempre em diálogo, como um meio relevante para o desenvolvimento profissional no início da docência.
Eficiencia energética envolventes de vinificación: estudio de casos de nuevas tecnologías vs tradicionales.
Authors: Ramos Sanz Alba Ines
Published: August 2022

The present work deals with a comparative case study between two technologies of winemaking tanks, new and traditional ones, to determine the energetic performance of wine production models in relation to the climate zone. The wineries' most common and energy-intensive winemaking process is addressed; fermentation of the must during summer. Using empirical data obtained by simple observations with temperature sensors, processed with statistical software, coefficients of variation, probability distribution, correlations, and bivariate models. With this information, the energy rate of each productive technological model is determined. From different approaches, the results obtained in the interior temperatures of both technological models indicate that the new fermentation envelope technology presents a higher energy rate per unit of product (kWh / L) than traditional envelope technology, and that difference is explained by outsider temperature from the climatic study area.

A procedure for the design of agro-industrial processes considering product quality is proposed. It is exemplified with a case study to produce non-centrifugal cane sugar at the artisanal level. Modeling and simulation are valuable tools for the adequate selection of operating parameters. For this purpose, cane juice with 5.35 pH and 12.55 °Brix were considered as process limits. For concentration, random values of pH 5.5 - 7, °Brix 89 - 93, and concentration time of 20 - 30 minutes were generated. In crystallization, random values of pH 5.5 - 7, °Brix 90 - 94, agitation time of 10 - 20 minutes, and temperature of 40 - 60 °C were generated. Ten batches equivalent to one day, 120 batches equivalent to one month, and 1560 batches equivalent to one year were simulated. The inclusion of quality attributes in the process design allowed reducing defective products, a Sigma level higher than 3 was obtained, the economic and financial indicators are positive when the color in ICUMSA units fluctuates between 9000 - 11000.

Abstract. The article presents the original data on the total Hg concentration in the waste of enterprises for the extraction of iron ore, coal and marble located in the Republic of Khakassia. Hg concentrations in the rocks of the dumps and the material of the tailings depend on the electrical conductivity and magnetic susceptibility. The concentration of this element increases in more acidic environmental conditions, and its higher concentrations are associated with particles having a size of 0.04 mm. Geoecological indicators demonstrate the enrichment of Hg waste from all enterprises studied, as confirmed by the calculation data of the enrichment factor.

Abstract. In recent decades, researchers from Papanin Institute for Biology of Inland Waters Russian Academy of Sciences have been studying mercury concentrations in the muscles of fish from water bodies situated in different natural and climatic zones. Overall, more than 5000 fish samples from 102 lakes and 35 rivers in Russia were analysed. In the absence of local sources of mercury entering the water body, its concentrations in the fish muscles varied in wide ranges, exceeding two orders of magnitude. Minimum concentration (<0.03 mg/kg wet weight) was recorded in the muscles of omul, rotan (Chinese sleeper), minnow, and bleak (Lake Baikal, Transbaikalia and European Russia). Maximum mercury concentration (2-3 mg/kg wet weight) was recorded in the muscles of perches from lakes in the northwest of Russia (Vologda and Novgorod regions, Karelia). Most of the measurement results ranged from 0.05 to 0.30 mg/kg wet weight. Differences in mercury concentrations in the muscles of fish of the same species, similar in size and from one water body, as a rule, did not exceed ranges of one order of magnitude. In the absence of local mercury sources, mercury concentrations in fish muscles from closely spaced water bodies could have more than tenfold differences.

Abstract. This article presents the results of a layer-by-layer study of the ice thickness in the main channel of the Amur River (Khabarovsk city area) and Pemzenskaya and Amurskaya channels. Spectral and microbiological methods were used to assess the nature of ice contamination with organic compounds. The study of suspensions from ice melts by mass spectrometry (ICP MS) confirmed mercury pollution. Among the cultivated heterotrophic bacteria from the ice mass (cryomicrobiocenoses), there were communities adapted to high mercury concentrations (up to 0.001 mg/L). In some layers of the ice, we recorded a high portion of sulfate-reducing bacteria involved in mercury methylation. In the mainstream of the Amur River, a layer of ice (70-117 cm) had a high content of mercury, dissolved organic matter, plant detritus, and the maximum number of bacteria resistant to mercury pollution. This ice layer was formed during the period of technological discharges from reservoirs to combat the consequences of a major flood in the Amur River Basin. The indicator of resistance of cryomicrobiocenoses to high mercury concentrations was due to the adaptive potential of heterotrophic microorganisms, including active mercury methylators, i.e. sulfate-reducing bacteria. This indicator can be used for a retrospective assessment of mercury pollution of rivers during the freeze-up period.

Abstract. In ultraoligotrophic lakes of Andean Patagonia, microbial assemblages at the base of pelagic food webs bear high THg concentrations compared to planktonic consumers. In this study, we evaluate experimentally the passive and active (trophic) uptake of Hg2+ using 197Hg2+ to trace Hg incorporation in picoplankton (autotrophic and heterotrophic bacteria), in the photoautotrophic phytoflagellate, Gymnodinium paradoxum, and in the mixotrophic ciliates, Stentor araucanus and Ophrydium naumanni. The studied protists were found to incorporate substantial amounts of dissolved Hg2+; however, their potential for Hg transference to higher trophic levels depends on their degree of Hg internalization (cytoplasmatic Hg), which varied widely among species.

Abstract. We present long-term (2011 2021) data on air mercury monitoring that was started within the GMOS (Global Mercury Observation System) project (2011-2015) at the Listvyanka station located on the shore of Lake Baikal, Siberia. Monitoring shows an obvious seasonal variation in the background mercury concentration in the air, which increases in the cold season and decreases in the warm season. Short-term anomalies are associated with the wind carrying air from industrial areas where several large coal-fired power plants are located (Irkutsk and Angarsk). A positive correlation between mercury, SO2 and NO2 concentrations is observed both in short-term variations and in average monthly concentrations. The analysis of the forward and backward trajectories obtained with the HYSPLIT model demonstrates possible mercury emission sources. Concentration-weighted trajectory (CWT) analysis has revealed potential remote regions of mercury emissions from where mercury can be transported by air masses to the area of Lake Baikal, including the territories of Transbaikalia and Mongolia (Erdenet). During the 2018 cruise, the continuous air mercury survey above Lake Baikal covered 1800 km. The mean mercury concentration above Lake Baikal is significantly lower than the mean value obtained at the onshore Listvyanka station during the same days of the cruise. That can lead to the conclusion that Lake Baikal is a sink of atmospheric mercury.

Abstract. At present, the behavior of mercury in the sea-atmosphere system in the north western Pacific Ocean is poorly understood. From September to December 2019, continuous measurements of atmospheric gaseous elemental mercury (Hg(0)) and point measurements of Hg(0) evasion fluxes from the sea to the atmosphere were carried out during two adjacent cruises from the South China Sea to the Sea of Okhotsk. The median concentration of Hg(0) (1.1 ng/m3) was below both the background of the Northern Hemisphere and the average values previously recorded in these areas. There was a trend of increasing Hg(0) concentration with decreasing latitude. The Yellow Sea with adjacent territories and northeast China were the Hg(0) source area for the Sea of Japan and the Sea of Okhotsk. The Kuril sector of the Pacific Ocean was identified as a source of Hg(0) for the Sea of Okhotsk. East China, Southeast China and Indochina were sources of Hg(0) for the East China and South China seas. A winter increase in Hg(0) concentrations was observed in the Sea of Japan and the East China Sea. Our data showed significant relationships between Hg(0) fluxes, latitude, and water temperature.
Mercury in bottom sediments of Russian Arctic lakes

Published: August 2022

Abstract. This article presents the results of studying the distribution of mercury in the cores of bottom sediments of both background and technogenic Arctic lakes in three regions: the Kola North, Malozemelskaya tundra and northwest Siberia. For all cores, the elemental composition, granulometry, and loss on ignition (LOI) were determined layer by layer. Mercury showed a significant excess of the local background in the near-surface sedimentary layers of most lakes. Fluxes of mercury from the pre-industrial period to the present were calculated. We discuss the possibility of technogenic pollution due to transboundary transfer.

Abstract. Based on the results of long-term biogeochemical studies (1992-2003), the Bratsk Reservoir was classified as anthropogenically transformed water body. In its upper part, there was mercury pollution of the ecosystem components (water, bottom sediments and biological objects), which was associated with the discharges of mercury-containing wastewater from the Usolyekhimprom chemical plant producing chlorine and caustic soda (Usolye-Sibirskoye town). The results of the monitoring the ecological condition of the Bolshoye Yarovoye salt lake (1998-2004) revealed the local mercury pollution of the ecosystem components (water, bottom sediments and biological objects) by mercurycontaining onshore solid waste dumps of the Altaihimprom plant (Yarovoye town) producing chemical reagents, including mercury oxide.

Abstract. We took 41 samples for a quantitative assessment of the total and dissolved mercury concentrations in the snow of the city of Irkutsk during winter 2021-2022. The maximum concentration of total mercury was recorded near the Eternal Flame memorial (248 ng/dm3); the minimum concentration was 6 ng/dm3 at the Jewish cemetery. The maximum concentration of dissolved mercury was recorded near the Aviation Plant (11.5 ng/dm3), and the minimum near the Maratovskoye traffic circle and Secondary School No. 66 (0.1 ng/dm3). In four samples, we did not detect dissolved mercury. Determining the mass concentration of mercury revealed that the concentrations of mercury compounds in the snow from Irkutsk were much lower than the MPC. Based on the results of the analysed samples, we created a cartographic material.
Nuclear Level Density in the X(636, 204) System
Authors: Bevelacqua Joseph
Published: August 2022

Level densities for the X(636, 204) system are calculated using a single particle methodology incorporating the Rost interaction and pairing interaction of Blomqvist and Wahlborn. Energy level fluctuations are smoothed utilizing the constant temperature, power law, and equidistant model functional forms. The constant temperature relationship is used to model the density and total number of energy levels. The total number of levels is also compared with the predictions of the power law and equidistant models. Systematics of level densities for nuclei are discussed, and compared to the X(636, 204) results.
Dopamine D5 receptor involvement in LTP and LTD: adjustment to the dysconnectivity theory of schizophrenia
Authors: Labrou Dimitris
Published: August 2022

The purpose of this article is to emphasize the role of the dopamine D5 receptor in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia, through its actions on the hippocampus, the prefrontal cortex, the striatum, and the basal ganglia. We believe that this receptor, along with other key receptor systems, mainly the 5HT2A/C, the GABA(A), the NMDA, and some nAchRs are vital for long-term potentiation(LTP) and long-term depression(LTD) effects, that control the plasticity of the brain. We assume that the anatomical and physiological traits that have been found, show us a loss of plasticity, which may be intertwined with a degree of atrophy in the brain, noted in a percentage of schizophrenia patients, as a loss of grey matter. Of course, the plasticity is mediated by different receptors in each brain region, and the tissues associated with the dopamine D5 receptor, show us a multi-parameter function, through the LTP and LTD. The effect that the dysfunction of the LTP and LTD has on the brain, is related to the dysconnectivity between parts of the CNS, a trait associated with many neurodevelopmental disorders, especially schizophrenia.

Authors: Joshi Prem Lal
Published: August 2022

Purpose: The aim of this research is to provide a critical review of literature on the factors influencing accounting students’ career choice to be public accountants and develop a conceptual framework.
Methodology: The study follows a qualitative mythological approach by reviewing the relevant literature pertaining to factors such as financial rewards, prestige in the society, work environment, continuous education opportunities, professional independence opportunities, family and closest friends, GPA or grade of the students, labour market considerations, students’ future educational plan, self-motivation, cultural, and social media along with the relevant applicable theories.
Findings: These factors indicate the trending pattern which influences the decision choices of accounting students to become public accountants. The analysis indicates that in previous studies, several factors showed a positive and significant influence on accounting students’ career choices to be public accountants. The analysis also provides implications of these studies’ findings and directions for future research by incorporating new variables in future studies.
Originality/Value: This literature review is meant to raise more awareness on the critical factors influencing the accounting students’ career choice to be public accountants. The suggested conceptual framework will help the researchers to provide new evidence on the critical factors. College and university Professors should be able to execute activities that back and help the students to have a positive attitude about public accountancy courses. Universities can produce policies and procedures focusing on students’ extrinsic motivation, career exposure, social values, etc. which can help in motivating them to choose a public accountancy career. Building a strong network with professional bodies such as ACCA, CIMA, and Institute of Chartered Accountancy by developing a synergistic relationship with the real business world.
Russia's invasion of Ukraine and EU's policy to reduce energy dependence on Russia: prospect and implications
Authors:   United European Research Society, KANG Yoo-Duk
Published: August 2022

The European Union (EU) announced its plans to suspend imports of Russian energy sources in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. This study examines the debates on the EU's energy dependence on Russia from the European perspective. It also reviews RePowerEU, the EU's roadmap to reduce and stop imports of natural gas from Russia, and changes that the plan will bring about.
Most EU member countries have a very high energy dependence rate, and Russia accounts for a high share in fossil fuel imports of the EU. The EU-Russia trade is characteristic of a consumer-supplier relationship. Despite the EU's economic sanctions against Russia after Russia annexed Crimea in 2014, the energy imports from Russia have not notably declined. On the other hand, the proportion of fossil fuels used decreased, and the proportion of renewable energy increased according to the EU's measures to respond to climate change.
If the EU wants to reduce or stop imports of natural gas from Russia under the RePowerEU, it will have to diversify its energy sources in the short term. It is expected to significantly increase the use of renewable energy such as wind and solar power and green hydrogen in the medium term. European Green Deal will likely find another political push in this process because climate change issues are now linked to energy security. On the other hand, developing countries are likely to face a more significant burden due to rising energy prices and stricter environmental regulations. Strategies to reduce energy dependence on Russia can catalyze European integration, contributing to solidifying the EU's foreign and security and energy policies. On the other hand, there is a possibility that different energy situations and security perceptions create a divergence between countries.

Sublimación, arte y vacío. Una aproximación a la estética desde la articulación entre filosofía y psicoanálisis
Authors: González Muñoz Ricardo Adrián , Osorio Arias María del Mar
Published: August 2022

El presente artículo constituye un aporte al conocimiento del arte en su vinculación con la filosofía y el psicoanálisis, en tanto aborda la tensión entre la representación y la construcción simbólica de la imagen artística en el contexto cultural/estético contemporáneo, mediante la relación entre lo Real lacaniano y la estática negativa de Adorno. Dicha relación encuentra su punto de articulación en el fenómeno estético de lo Bello, entendido como lo que encara al sujeto con el vacío de su deseo radical, sin engañarlo y que permite integrar la negatividad propia de lo Real con los elementos formales que componen la obra artística, así como con los conceptos de radicalidad y autenticidad de la propuesta adorniana. La articulación entre la estética negativa de Adorno y el efecto estético de lo Bello de Lacan, se ejemplifica con una interpretación en clave psicoanalítica de la obra de la artista colombiana Doris Salcedo.

On Bivariate Modeling of the COVID-19 Data with a New Type I Half-Logistic Inverse Weibull Distribution
Authors: Elhassanein Ahmed
Published: August 2022

This manuscript presents a new univariate six parameters type I half-logistic inverse Weibull distribution. Explicit expressions for the quantile function, the moments, the moment generating function and the maximum likelihood esti-mators are formulated. Simulation is employed to investigate the goodness of fit and to discuss the behaviour of the new model. Competitive models are compared via real data. The univariate one is used as a base line to construct a bivariate one named bivariate six parameters type I half-logistic inverse Weibull distribution. Mathematical properties of the new bivariate distrib-ution are investigated. The goodness of fit and the model performance are discussed via simulation. COVID-19 mortality data for Italy and Canada are treated as a bivariate random variable to prove the applicability of the new bivariate distribution.
Finding a Simple Solution to the Problem of Student Evaluations: An Index of Traditional Evaluation Questions
Authors: Stimel Derek , Flathmann Wilson Janine Lynn
Published: August 2022

Literature commonly finds student evaluations of economics instruction do not assess true teaching effectiveness. Many techniques improving learning outcomes result in lower student evaluations because students must work harder. Still, we often rely on a single overall rating for assessing teacher quality. We construct a model of student responses that indicate likeability of the instructor and difficulty of the instruction. We test the predictive power of these indicators using teaching evaluations of intermediate microeconomics instructors over five years alongside data on student grades in future courses that depend on intermediate microeconomics. Using these questions to construct a more meaningful evaluation of how well the intermediate microeconomic instructors prepare students to recall and use important concepts in the future improves our ability to evaluate instructor effectiveness.
The English Language in Finland: Tool of Modernity or Tool of Coloniality?
Authors: Peterson Elizabeth
Published: August 2022

English is the dominant lingua franca of the modern world, used by an estimated 1.5 billion people (Peterson 2020; 2 billion people according to MacKenzie 2018). The ubiquity of English is in large part due to its colonial history, which resulted in extreme pluricentricity (Clyne 1992). English is also the world’s most commonly taught foreign language, for example in places like Finland, where the majority population claims to be proficient in English (Leppänen, Nikula and Kääntä 2008). By some measures, the “best” non-native speakers of English are the Nordic populations, including Finland (European Commission 2012). Contemporary ideologies of the Nordic countries, Finland included, are at odds with the linguistic attitudes and discrimination that are a composite component of English. That is, Nordic countries value ideologies of equality (Keskinen, Skaptadóttir and Toivanen 2019), yet the English language is known to reflect social biases and to perpetuate social inequality based on race, economic status and gender (Lippi-Green 2012; Milroy and Milroy 1999). How then, does the use of English play out in a setting like Finland? Does English perpetuate Nordic values of equality, or colonial values of whiteness and elitism? The chapter explores these notions through the lens of the Extra and Intra-territorial Force Model (Buschfeld and Kautzsch 2017), a model designed to apply to non-postcolonial settings of English.
The Genetic Imagination: Imaging Populations and the Construction of Nationhood
Authors: Tupasela Aaro
Published: August 2022

This chapter explores the ways in which genetics, particularly population genetics, generate representations of difference and similarity. Using examples drawn from both scientific literature, as well as popularizing texts, I show how visual representations of difference and similarity have come to provide compelling forms of evidence for constructing nationhood, as well as national identity. Using the case of Finnish genetics, as well as the study of rare diseases in Finland, I will describe how genetics and historical understandings of nationhood have come to complement other forms of national identity, such as culture. If the national romantic period in Finland from the late 19th to the early 20th centuries drew its legitimacy from literature and the arts, then the role of genetics in the construction of nationhood can be understood through the lens of what I have termed genetic romanticism. Much like the national romantic period, I consider genetic romanticism as a set of practices and processes through which national identity becomes defined and stabilized.
