Filipino Medical Technology Dean’s Strategies to Overcome Organizational Challenges: A Phenomenological Inquiry
Authors: Olano Maria Luisa Malou , V. Calimag Ma. Minerva , Hapan Frieda Z.
Published: July 2018

This qualitative research aims to unravel the challenges encountered by the Filipino medical technology deans when performing their functions and to describe their ways to overcome them.

The deans disclosed that the most common dilemma they encountered rested on people, resources, workload, and personal. People related challenges, for instance, were obviously displayed by the faculty members and staffs’ resistance to certain policies and plans laid out by the university. At times, conflict among them arises which eventually gave rise to informal leaders. The deans, however, agreed that problem along this facet could be resolved by appropriate communication. Moreover, they encountered problems on resources during the operation- facilities, budget, manpower, and time management were among them. They were able to manage to go through by prioritizing the purchase of the needed resources and proportionally allocating them to the units of the department. Some deans were resourceful and creative enough to innovate the resources available to suit these to their present requirements. Along with workload-related strategies. Some deans got a hard time in class scheduling and giving teaching assignments because of their doing some administrative roles, they ran short of time to do these. To resolve, faculty restructuring was done so that some academic tasks could be delegated. Finally, the deans did face personal-related challenges. They became enemies to themselves as indicated by their feelings of isolation, self-adjustment to keep even to the stakeholders they dealt with, and exhaustion. To combat, they set time for self-reflection and adapt ways to reach out the people around them.

 

In spite of the efforts of the deans and despite of the available resources they have, they were still facing some challenges in managing the department. Their unresolved problems will hamper the program operation. Their disclosures implied the need for the top management and other stakeholders to revisit the organization to identify the resources the deans needed for an efficient and effective program operation.
Impact of Workplace Environmental Factors on Employee Commitment: Evidence from North East Nigeria
Authors: Funminiyi Adeoye K.
Published: July 2018

Recently, it has been observed that workplace environmental factors are essential predictors of employee commitment, for achieving organizational goals and objectives. This study assessed the impact of workplace environmental factors on employee commitment in North East of Nigeria. Adopting a survey design, the research made used of primary data, collected mainly through administering a set of questionnaire to 205 management staff, supervisors and non-management staff of the selected manufacturing firms from Adamawa, Bauchi and Gombe states respectively. The findings revealed that: there is significant positive relationship between feedback and employee efficiency; incentive positively affects employees’ commitment. The study concluded that effective performance feedback is critical to employees’ efficiency and organisational growth. Incentives as key factor also contribute immensely to employee commitment in workplace. The work recommended that organisations should incorporate feedback approach into it system. In addition management should be consistent in giving incentives to workers that desire it on merit ground.
Modified Regression Type Estimators in the Presence of Non-Response in Two Phase sampling
Authors: Wanjiru John Kung’u , Chumba Grace
Published: July 2018

It is a common experience in sample survey that data cannot always be collected for all units selected in the sample at the first attempt and even after some call-backs. An estimate obtained from such incomplete data may be misleading because of the non-response in the data. In addition, the population mean of the auxiliary variable from the previous census may not be available. In this paper, Modified regression type estimators proposed by Tum et al. (2014) in single phase sampling, assuming complete response, have been proposed to estimate the population mean of the study variable in the presence of non-response under two phase sampling scheme. The expression of mean squared errors (MSE) based on the proposed estimators have been derived under two phase sampling to the first degree of approximation. A comparison of the proposed estimators with the usual unbiased estimator and existing estimators under two phase sampling scheme have been carried out. The proposed Modified regression type estimators have been found to be the most efficient compared to the existing estimators and they are recommended for use in practice.
Public-Private Partnership Model used in urban sustainable development propriety research in Taipei governance of Taiwan
Authors: Tseng Mou-Chung , Peng Chien-Wen
Published: July 2018

With the shift in global economic, social, demographic, and information technology, the emergence of metropolitan areas not only penetrated the border relations between countries, changed the interaction between central and local governments, restructured the size and style of urban spaces, but also caused a huge transformation in local infrastructures and community structures. The local governments hence have to face challenges in their management in regards to the arising changes and needs. This type of urban formation and development is not only a trend in countries around the globe; it is also an area the Taiwanese governments are actively involved in. With the impact of urbanization, the size of highly functional cities has surpassed core city administrative regions; therefore, this has generated various planning, administrative and policy issues. This study examines the PPPs views on urban development; the research methodology will be designed to focus on qualitative research, firstly undergoing document analysis, studying the progress of sustainable urban development and various issues arising during the development process in Taipei, Taiwan. Secondly, case analysis will be implemented to study the characteristics, current situation and problems in sustainable urban development in Taiwan. With two combined, a concrete and feasible study on sustainable urban development can be integrated and accomplished.

Authors: Steinert T. V. , Aliluev A. V. , Avdeenko L. M. , Grinberg Е. G.
Published: July 2018

The main results of research on onion crops in the laboratory of seed selection and technology of cultivation of vegetable cultures of SibNIIRS for a 40-year period are given. Collection, study and reproduction of local and varieties from other regions made it possible to create an extensive gene pool of onion plants for various breeding and direct use in production. More than 1500 samples belonging to 52 species of the genus Allium have been studied. The following species are most developed in the selection plan: shallots, shnitt, batoon, slizun, fragrant, Altai. The advantages of cultivation of shallots onions in comparison with onion are shown. The main methods of selection of onion cultures are presented in the historical section. As a result of selection, polycross and interspecific hybridization (A. ascalonicum x A. cepa), 15 sorts of shallots of different maturation period have been created and entered into the State Register. The most productive were the hybrid populations, where the sorts of shallots were used as maternal forms: the bulb weight increased, the number of them in the nest decreased, and they were more evenly sized. The advantage of the landing of the shallows in the nursery of competitive variety testing is shown. A clonal nursery of rhizome perennial onions was created in 5 species, numbering 330 samples (shnitt, Altai, slizun, baton, fragrant). Interest for selection on a set of economic features is 19 (productivity of seeds and green leaves, intensity of regrowth after cut, qualitative composition of leaves, resistance to diseases).
ANTHECOLOGY OF SOME SPECIES OF THE GENUS ALLIUM L. UNDER MOSCOW PROVINCE CONDITIONS
Authors: Golubev F. V.
Published: July 2018

Different perennial species of Allium L. have been studied under Moscow Province conditions as new vegetables and melliferous plants. The results of long-term studies of anthecology of seven species of Allium L.: A. nutans L., A. flavescens Bess., A. odorum L., A. montanum F.W. Schmidt, A. fistulosum L., A. angulosum L., A. schoenoprasum L. are presented in the paper. It is shown that the objects of study differ in terms of the beginning of flowering and length of the growing season. The early-flowering (A. fistulosum, A. montanum, A. schoenoprasum), and late-flowering species (A. angulosum, A. nutans, A. odorum, A. flavescens) were identified. The species features in the daily dynamics of flowering, the timing of development of pistils and the duration of susceptibility of their stigmas are revealed. The significant influence of weather conditions on these processes is established. By nature of blooming flowers within a single inflorescence type are revealed apical (A. schoenoprasum, A. fistulosum) and basal (A. odorum, A. nutans, A. montanum, A. flavescens) types of inflorescence. Besides, groups of species differing with the dynamics of disclosure of flowers in inflorescences are noted. It was found that the daily course of opening flowers within the species, as a whole, is constant, but depends on weather conditions. It is shown that the maximum number of flowers opening per day in all species falls on the middle of the flowering period. The species composition of pollinators and entomophages for the studied species of Allium L. was determined. The taxonomic diversity of the composition of insects visiting the inflorescences of onions is shown. The role of separate insects in the pollination process is established. The main pollinators of early-flowering and late-flowering species of onions are determined. It is stated that the most important as pollinators are species related to the orders of Hymenoptera (bumblebees, bees) and Diptera (flower flies, tachina flies), the activity of which largely depends on weather conditions and time of day.

Published: July 2018

Effects of humic preparation (HP) Stimulife and PGPR (plant growth promotion rhizobacteria) Bacillus subtilis №2 on the productivity and quality of the sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) fruits were studied in the control conditions. It was experimentally established that the use of Stimulife and bacteria Bacillus subtilis №2 resulted in an increase in plant height, productivity and biochemical composition of sweet peppers. Differences in the effect of the studied preparations on the morphometric, phenological and biochemical characteristics of plants and fruits of pepper varieties Ermak and Cinderella were revealed. The bacteria Bacillus subtilis №2 significantly increased the yield, the number of fruits per one plant and the contents of ascorbic acid and carbohydrates in pepper fruits. In this case, the average weight of one fruit of pepper v. Ermak decreased. HP Stimulife increased the pepper yield due to increasing the mean mass of one fruit in both pepper varieties. Joint used of HP Stimulife and bacteria Bacillus subtilis №2 led to an intensification of the production process of plants compared to the experiment variants, in which HP Stimulife was used alone. The yield of sweet pepper Ermak and Cinderella increased by 10-45%, the maturation period of fruits was reduced by 10-14 days, the content of ascorbic acid increased by 25%, sugar content increased to 26%. The expediency of the joint application of HP Stimulife and bacteria Bacillus subtilis №2 in the cultivation of sweet pepper under controlled conditions is substantiated.
UTILIZATION OF ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZAL FUNGI IN PRODUCTION OF ALLIUM SPECIES
Authors: Caruso G. , Golubkina N. A. , Seredin Т. M. , Sellitto V. М.
Published: July 2018

The fundamental direction of modern agriculture development is elaboration and utilization of technologies that ensure environmental safety, high plant productivity and quality of crop production. In this connection, the issues of optimization of mineral nutrition and water supply, immunity enhancement and protection of plants against various forms of biotic and abiotic stresses without significant environmental stress are of current interest. Normal growth and development of almost all plants on the Earth depends on the presence of mycorrhizal fungi in the soil, which ensure optimal plant nutrition and water supply due to the huge number of hyphae. The review discusses the prospects for the use of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in the cultivation of Allium species, as the most responsive plants to the effects of mycorrhizae due to the poorly developed root system that hinders the nutrition of plants. It is noted that utilization of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi may provide the reduction of the amount of fertilizers, herbicides and insecticides needed for high productivity of crops. The review deals with the peculiarities of symbiotic interrelations of different species of mycorrhizal fungi (pure and mixed cultures, mainly of the genus Glomus) with different Allium species (onion, garlic, shallot, leek, A. roylei, A. fistulosum, A. galanthum). Questions of agricultural crops quality as affected by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungy are discussed. Data on the effect of climatic conditions on the efficiency of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi utilization in Allium production are discussed. The possibility of increasing the efficiency of biofortification of Allium species with selenium via utilization of arbuscular-mycorrhizal fungi is noted, as well as an increase in the content of biologically active sulfur-containing compounds in garlic. Particular attention is paid to the necessity of the development of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi preparations in Russia – the country not using this ecologically friendly technology at present.

Published: July 2018

Esta investigación tuvo como objetivo explorar la relación entre estilos vinculares y conducta alimentaria en niños y niñas de 6 a 9 años. Se exploran diferencias en estilos vinculares, índice de masa corporal y conducta alimentaria, además de diferencias por género. La muestra fue de carácter no probabilístico y estuvo constituida por 100 niños pertenecientes a la ciudad de Temuco. Se utilizan los instrumentos TFEQ-P19 para medir conducta alimentaria y el test del Dibujo de la Familia para explorar el apego. Por último, el peso y talla se obtuvo a través de las mediciones efectuadas a los participantes para el posterior cálculo de IMC. Los resultados indican que existe un 15 % de participantes con sobrepeso y 42% en estado de obesidad. Los resultados indican que existe una relación significativa entre estilo vincular y estado nutricional, observando una asociación entre hombres con estilo vincular evitante y obesidad. El abordaje de la obesidad también puede ser considerado desde las relaciones tempranas, como un eje articulador significativo entre la dimensión emocional e ingesta alimentaria.

Authors: Bartlett Sophie , Fitzgerald Michael T. , McKinnon David H. , Danaia Lena , Lazendic-Galloway Jasmina
Published: July 2018

A new survey for measuring students’ astronomy and science attitudes that has been validated for use with high school students (with a future intent to expand to middle school and university) is presented. We initially present a short review of instruments in the literature that attempt to measure attitudes in astronomy together with the difficulties encountered in measuring these by researchers in the subsequent analyses of results. To illustrate this, we present an example from an Astro101-level university course to display the problems with the current, most commonly used, astronomy attitude instrument. We then present the initial design and the Factor Analysis of a new instrument designed to address the deficiencies of this existing instrument from a sample of students in a high school-level astronomy education project. The factors identified by this instrument include: Interest in Astronomy, Interest in Science Outside of School, Practical Work in Science, Teacher’s Actions in science, Perceptions of Ability in Science, Future Aspirations in Science, Benefits of Science, and Personal Relevance of School Science, all of which possess high internal response consistency and construct validity.
MOTIVACIJA, OČEKIVANJA I ŽELJE STUDENATA VISOKE ŠKOLE ZA OBRAZOVANJE VASPITAČA
Authors: Colić Vesna , Milošević Tamara , Colić Uglješa
Published: July 2018

U radu su prikazani rezultati istraživanja o motivaciji studenata za upis u školu za obrazovanje vaspitača,  njihovim očekivanjima i željama vezanim za odabrane studije. Osnovni zaključci su da su iskazani motivi, očekivanja i želje studenata u velikoj meri realni, racionalni, međusobno usklađeni, kao i u skladu sa savremenim shvatanjem o očekivanim kompetencijama za profesiju vaspitača, uz izvesna odstupanja kod studenata prve godine, koji su generalno bili nesigurniji u davanju odgovora. Praktične implikacije tiču se potrebe daljeg istraživanja problema, gde bi longitudinalna istraživanja dala korisne podatke o tome kako i pod uticajem kojih faktora se menjaju motivacija, očekivanja i želje studenata tokom trogodišnjeg studiranja. U cilju podizanja kvaliteta inicijalnog obrazovanja vaspitača neophodno je organizovati različite oblike vannastavnog učenja potrebnih „životnih veština“, ali i određene intervencije u samom studijskom programu, pri čemu bi trebalo više uključiti studente, ceneći njihovu visoku motivisanost koju su nedvosmisleno pokazali.

Parte-se de uma visão pós-moderna para questionar a arrogância e a prepotência masculina e suas formas de controle, inclusive com a adoção de uma eterna permanência e existência do masculino por meio dos nomes.
Fala preta, gestos e palavras da cultura afro-brasileira: o Bumba meu Boi maranhense
Authors: Viana Raimundo Nonato Assunção
Published: July 2018

A história do Brasil sempre destinou ao negro um lugar secundário, submetido à escravidão e a trabalhos menos valorizados no contexto cultural. Todavia, os povos indígenas e negros sempre foram importantes na formação da nação brasileira. Desse modo, o objetivo desse texto foi trazer à superfície a demonstração da cultura afro-brasileira a partir de uma de suas manifestações: o bumba meu boi. Essa manifestação demonstra a construção da estética presente na cultura apesar do desenraizamento gerado pelos brancos.
Programação de computadores e processos auxiliares da aprendizagem: o caso da Escola de Hackers
Authors: Batistela Fernanda , Teixeira Adriano Canabarro
Published: July 2018

Em um mundo profundamente transformado pelas tecnologias de informática e conexão, o software assume papel estratégico de desenvolvimento humano e social. Neste sentido, ganha força a percepção de que é fundamental ao cidadão contemporâneo desenvolver habilidades de desenvolvimento de software e começam a se popularizar iniciativas que vão nesta direção. Este estudo tem como objetivo, a partir de aportes teórico-pedagógicos e da pesquisa de campo, analisar a forma como a programação de computadores, foco do Projeto Escola de Hackers, influencia os processos auxiliares da aprendizagem expostos por Juan Ignacio Pozo em sua obra Aprendizes e Mestres: a nova cultura da aprendizagem. O Projeto Escola de Hackers, em atividade desde 2014, atende estudantes do ensino fundamental de escolas municipais de Passo Fundo/RS, cidade brasileira de médio porte. Consiste em um conjunto de ações que oportunizam o aprendizado de técnicas e habilidades de programação a estudantes do ensino fundamental através do software Scratch, desenvolvido pelo Instituto de Tecnologia de Massachusetts. Este artigo é fruto do acompanhamento das atividades do projeto em uma das escolas participantes do projeto durante o ano de 2014. Após a análise dos dados coletados, foi possível verificar que o fator de maior influência na aprendizagem da programação para o grupo de estudo foi a motivação.
Gênero e sexualidade no campo da educação: provocando descolamentos e inquietações
Authors: Graupe Mareli Eliane , Locks Geraldo Augusto , Pereira Josilaine Antunes
Published: July 2018

Este artigo reflete sobre a formação de professores/as, acadêmicos/as de graduação e de pós-graduação na interface gênero e sexualidade. O referencial teórico abarca autores/as das temáticas de gênero, sexualidade, relações raciais e políticas públicas que orientam uma educação equitativa. O curso de extensão foi organizado em quatro módulos e realizado por meio de oficinas. Constatou-se que a formação não tem considerado as respectivas temáticas, gerando deslocamentos e inquietações na prática docente. Identificaram-se lacunas destas questões nos projetos pedagógicos, currículos, planos de ensino e nos cursos de licenciatura. A construção de uma educação para relações equitativas de gênero pressupõe a inserção dessas temáticas nos documentos e nas práticas docentes.
O acadêmico ingressante na educação superior: perfil, escolhas e expectativas
Authors: Ferri Cassia , Duarte Blaise Keniel da Cruz , Neitzel Adair Aguiar
Published: July 2018

Esta pesquisa tem como tema a Educação Superior e o objetivo é discutir as pluralidades que compõem o mosaico juvenil e envolvem a transição do Ensino Médio para o Superior por meio do perfil do acadêmico ingressante. Buscamos, ainda, pontuar ações que interferem na permanência do estudante na universidade. A metodologia utilizada é quali-quantitativa. O instrumento de coleta de dados foi um questionário online com 19 questões objetivas aplicado junto aos ingressantes da graduação em 2016-1. A análise do instrumento pautou-se na estratégia da triangulação metodológica, que permite a combinação e o cruzamento de métodos e técnicas de pesquisa. Como resultados sinalizamos: a) o perfil dos ingressantes revela, entre outros dados, que a maioria é do sexo feminino, são economicamente dependentes da família e oriundos das escolas públicas; b) há fragilidades na participação em atividades culturais como teatro, cinema, shows e em atividades de lazer como  a prática de esportes, dança e academia; c) que as ações de acolhimento e atendimento ao discente, no curso e ações institucionais são fundamentais para que a transição do acadêmico dê-se de forma mais tranquila, assim como, para sua permanência; d) a maioria deseja desenvolver habilidades para diferentes possibilidades profissionais e adquirir conhecimento específico da área de cultura geral. Observamos que a transição do acadêmico é dependente não apenas da formação dos ingressantes, mas também da estrutura que os acolhe. A universidade necessita atuar como um campo de formação específica, mas também oferecer oportunidades de ampliar seu capital cultural.
Gramsci, os pioneiros e a educação integral
Authors: Castro Adriana de , Lopes Roseli Esquerdo
Published: July 2018

Ao discutirmos acerca da educação integral, temos que nos referenciar na escola unitária, idealizada por Antonio Gramsci, por ele acreditar no poder da escola formando todas as pessoas para serem dirigentes numa nova sociedade, e no Manifesto de 1932. Dentre as principais conclusões, pode-se afirmar que a extensão da jornada discente não pode ser apenas uma questão de ampliação de tempo, mas de uma organização escolar que contemple e qualifique as atividades obrigatórias e as atividades de livre escolha do aluno.
Movimento operário, intelectuais e o partido revolucionário em Gramsci
Authors: Moura Alessandro de
Published: July 2018

Primeiramente fazemos uma breve discussão sobre a concepção defendida por Gramsci acerca do que caracteriza um intelectual, bem como sua função social nas distintas formações sociais, como desdobramento de tal reflexão do autor sardo, apresentamos sua conhecida distinção, operada no “Caderno 12”, entre os ‘intelectuais tradicionais’ e os ‘intelectuais orgânicos’ destacando sua práxis social. Por fim, valendo-nos dos escritos do autor no “Caderno 13”, ressaltamos a importância do intelectual orgânico na constituição do partido revolucionário.

Gramsci, o "folclore" e o dia 22 de agosto: observações impertinentes
Authors: Ciacchi Andrea
Published: July 2018

As “Observações sobre o Folclore” correspondem, como se sabe, à reunião de quatro textos curtos de Gramsci dedicados à reflexão acerca das manifestações e, sobretudo, da “concepção do mundo e da vida” do “povo” – ou seja, “das classes subalternas e instrumentais de toda forma de sociedade até agora existente”. Nesta comunicação, busco contrapor as idéias gramscianas sobre cultura popular à concepção trivial de folclore no âmbito da escola brasileira, parcialmente fundamentada na obra de Câmara Cascudo.

Published: July 2018

Para o fortalecimento e difusão do nacional-desenvolvimentismo dos anos 50, no Brasil, participaram diversos agentes, entre estes o folclore, que, ao se articular à educação e à imprensa escrita, foi elemento ideológico integrante na construção de uma identidade nacional. Este trabalho tem por objetivo abordar teoricamente a relação educação-folclore, identificá-la e descrevê-la a partir da análise do que foi veiculado pela imprensa escrita acerca do tema e pela legislação pertinente do período.
Epistemologias e teorias do conhecimento em educação e educação física: reações aos pós-modernismos

Published: July 2018

Este texto tem como objetivo apresentar uma discussão sobre a epistemologia e as teorias do conhecimento da pesquisa em Educação e Educação Física, explicitando as reações aos pós-modernismos. Apresenta as correntes pós-modernistas que vem influenciando estas áreas e localiza as diversas viradas epistemológicas, tais como a "virada linguistica" "hermenêutica" e "pragmática". Resgata a ontologia como base que da o sentido a essas reações contras essas "viradas" e busca mostrar as teorias do conhecimento e as perspectivas histórico-sociais que estão em confronto.
O debate da pós-modernidade: as teorias do conhecimento em jogo
Authors: Sánchez Gamboa Silvio Ancizar
Published: July 2018

O texto apresenta o debate sobre as correntes pós-modernas que repercutem na pesquisa em educação. Essas correntes tem seu fundamento no “giro linguístico”. Essas abordagens que criticam o racionalismo moderno, paradoxalmente, tem como base uma teoria do conhecimento. A polêmica entre as tendências da pesquisa torna-se mais radical e esclarecedora quando são recuperadas as teorias do conhecimento que as sustentam. Os pesquisadores perante esse quadro de correntes diversas não podem ignorar o jogo de concepções e pressupostos, que revelam os limites e das implicações ideológicas dessas tendências. Essa necessária vigilância crítica poderá propiciar maior qualificação da pesquisa em educação.
Ações do corpo humano, mente/cérebro e linguagem
Authors: Roncari José Roque Aguirra
Published: July 2018

Descobrimos que, se a linguagem e o corpo humano são uma realidade só, se a linguagem é física/matéria tanto quanto um órgão mental (mente/cérebro) do corpo, conforme Chomsky (1997) cuja gênese biológica nos acontece e se desenvolve a partir de nosso interior corpóreo mental. Se a linguagem também executa ações, conforme Ludwig Wittgenstein (o primeiro e o segundo), então, isto pode significar que educar o corpo humano, implica educar também a linguagem ordinária que o corpo usa para viver em ambientes sociais. Ambos, sempre agem em conjunto e aprendem a conhecer o mundo através da práxis física e social. Se educar a linguagem passa por educar o corpo, então, resulta que ambas as ações podem correlacionarem-se a epistemologias como a da Educação Física, Filosofia da Educação ou à da ciência de parte da natureza humana: a Faculdade de Linguagem universal, que permite ao Homem pensar, fazer e ser humano mediante a aquisição de qualquer língua natural.

Os PCNs e os anais do VIII Simpósio Educação Superior em Debate, circunstanciam o campo empírico da investigação teórica cuja análise desvela as proposições pedagógicas e os pressupostos epistemológicos que sustentam a formação e práticas docentes em vigor. A problemática que daí emerge é discutida no seio das teorias da complexidade e objetiva refletir e sugerir princípios de organização curricular para os cursos de Pedagogia e licenciaturas.
Por um currículo multicultural
Authors: Costa Carlos Odilon da , Soares Rosana
Published: July 2018

A pesquisa objetivou perceber como a construção curricular e as práticas pedagógicas nos Cursos de Artes–licenciaturas das Universidades Comunitárias de Santa Catarina possibilitam ou não momentos de promoção de igualdade para todos e todas. Após mapear as IES Comunitárias, a análise incidiu sobre os currículos trabalhados por seis Universidades: FURB, UNIVILLE, UNIPLAC, UNOESC, UNC, UNESC, no período de 2000 a 2007. Nos planos de ensino dos professores e na bibliografia recomendada, constatamos a presença de autores que abordam o multiculturalismo. Resta saber como os graduandos se posicionaram frente às teorias apresentadas e como essas teorias estão inseridas em suas práticas docentes.
Epistemologia da ciência cognitiva e sua implicação no ensino de ciências
Authors: Oliveira Elizângela Silva de , Ghedin Evandro , Oliveira Ethel Silva de
Published: July 2018

O presente artigo procura extrair a contribuição para o Ensino de Ciências das reflexões e discussões sobre o conceito de mente. O texto evidencia como os processos mentais podem contribuir para se pensar uma epistemologia do Ensino de Ciências. Ao fazer a articulação entre os processos mentais discutido, avalia-se a possibilidade de uma Didática centrada nos processos cognitivos que ultrapassam formas tradicionais de pensar as Ciências da Educação. Conclui que o conceito de mente é insuficiente para sustentar uma epistemologia do ensino, mas desenha um modelo de conhecimento que supera os limites da pedagogia construtivista.
Tendências investigativas no ensino de Ciências na Amazônia
Authors: Silva Luis Carlos Lemos da , Gonzaga Amarildo Menezes
Published: July 2018

Atualmente não se pode negar a influência que a ciência tem sobre a sociedade. Com efeito, não podemos esquecer que esta mesma ciência se isolou das reflexões sobre o ser humano, sobre os valores éticos e mesmo sobre seus próprios fins. Portanto, ao falar em ciências e seu uso no processo ensino-aprendizagem nos remete ao pensamento da teoria clássica: onde todos os estudantes e, inclusive o professor, sairão satisfeitos. Ao contrário, o que se verifica atualmente é o oposto. Alunos desmotivados e professores insatisfeitos. Como isto pode acontecer se temos cada vez mais acesso aos recursos tecnológicos? As novas tecnologias presentes nas escolas não têm facilitado esse processo? Como as teorias cientificas podem ser usadas em sala de aula e como podem favorecer a construção do conhecimento no educando são questões que remetem à preocupação do autor em contribuir com uma tendência no ensino de ciências na Amazônia que vá em direção de uma educação em ciências que rompa com os estreitos limites da ciência atual.

É a filosofia, para o professor e para o aluno, principalmente busca ou aquisição? O artigo considera, neste contexto, a magnitude do empreendimento filosófico e, por outro lado, as possibilidades da razão humana, que as filosofias mesmas diversamente tematizam.
Lehetőségek és akadályok az egészséges élelmiszer-fogyasztás területén

Published: July 2018

Tanulmányunk központi feltevése volt, hogy Magyarországon az anyagi helyzet, a tuda­tosság szintje, valamint az „identitás” döntő módon befolyásolja azt, hogy ki vállalja az egészséges táplálkozáson alapuló életmódot. Az egészségtudatosság és a pénzügyi attitűd között is vélelmeztünk összefüggést, valamint az egészségtudatosság a viselkedési szándék és a normatív hiedelmek között is pozitív kapcso­latot feltételeztünk. Kutatásaink megerősítik: A tapasztalati attitűd, a viselkedési szándék és a környezetben észlelt normák szoros kap­csolatban vannak azzal, hogy egészségesen táplálkozik-e az egyén. Várakozásaink szerint azoknak a hölgyeknek határozza meg elsősor­ban a tudása és a tájékozottsága a táplálkozási szokásait, akik magasabb jövedelemmel ren­delkeznek. A kutatásunk igazolta: a jövedelem növekedésével, mind meghatározóbb szerep­hez jut a tájékozottság és a tudás. A jövedelem tehát sorsdöntő abból a szempontból, hogy képes-e valaki Magyarországon egészségesen táplálkozni – ez ugyanis sokkal drágább és idő­igényesebb, mint a rutinszerű, nem átgondolt étkezés. Akiknek a táplálkozási szokásait saját bevallása szerint az anyagi helyzete határozza meg leginkább (és nem a tájékozottság/tudás, vagy a márkahűség) – az átlag alatti jövedelem kategóriába esnek. Ez a csoport szorongóbb a pénzügyek területén, jellemző rájuk a költség­vetés tudatosság, és az akcióvadászat is.

Published: July 2018

Di Banyuwangi terdapat berbagai macam rangkaian kegiatan adat yang berhubungan dengan berbagai peristiwa yang terjadi dalam suatu masyarakat. Salah satunya, tradisi ritual Seblang yang hanya dilakukan oleh masyarakat Using di dua desa dalam lingkungan kecamatan Glagah, Kabupaten Banyuwangi. Using merupakan sebutan bagi sisa rakyat Blambangan yang selamat dari perang Puputan Bayu, perang antara Blambangan melawan Belanda. Ritual ini dilakukan sebagai tujuan bersih desa dan tolak bala yang dimaksudkan agar desa tetap dalam keadaan tentram dan terhindar dari mara bahaya. Dalam ritual Seblang terdapat kegiatan berziarah ke makam leluhur, selametan, ider bumi, tarian Seblang dan kirab. Ritual ini mempunyai syarat ketentuan dan tatanan tertentu seperti umur penari, aksesoris yang dipakai penari, dan waktu pelaksanaan tarian. Ritual ini hanya terdapat pada dua desa, desa Olehsari dan Bakungan. Di dalam ritual ini terkandung nilai vertikal, ucapan terima kasih kepada Tuhan atas berbagai kesejahteraan dan horizontal, adanya hubungan sosial yang didasari oleh perasaan senasib sehingga ritual ini unik dan menarik untuk dikaji. Penelitian ini hendak mengkaji lebih jauh tentang ritual Seblang di desa Bakungan dan desa Olehsari, Glagah, Banyuwangi, Jawa Timur. penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui proses ritual, tatanan, pemilihan pelaku ritual, syarat dan ketentuan hingga perbedaan di kedua desa tersebut.

Menanam padi merupakan suatu kegiatan bercocok tanam yang dilakukan oleh para petani. Terdapat beberapa urutan dalam proses menanam padi. Pada saat menjelang panen, satu minggu sebelumnya masyarakat akan melakukan ritual yang disebut Methil. Methil merupakan ritual pemotongan padi yang ada dibagian tengah lahan dengan menggendong baskom yang berisi lima takir cok bakal. Lalu membawa hasil potongan padi tersebut ke rumah dan dilakukan upacara selamatan dengan tetangga lalu membungkus lima bungkusan nasi menggunakan daun jati atau daun pisang kemudian diletakkan disetiap sudut tulakan air. bungkusan tersebut boleh diambil oleh warga gunanya sebagai sedekah. Untuk melaksanakan methil mereka akan menghindari hari ringkel. Upacara ini dilakukan sebagai bentuk permohonan keselamatan dan wujud rasa syukur terhadap Dewi Sri. Namun, dalam perkembangan zaman dan kebudayaan serta masuknya agam Islam menyebabkan terjadinya banyak pergeseran dalam ritual upacara ini, contohnya saja ritual ini dulunya ditujukan kepada Dewi Sri tetapi sekarang ini hanya berupa syukuran yang ditujukan kepada Tuhan YME sebagai wujud rasa syukur atas berkah yang diberikan kepada mereka. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui bagaimana suatu budaya masyarakat yang sudah menjadi tradisi turun-menurun mengalami perubahan drastis seiring berkembangnya pengetahuan dan agar kita mengetahui alasan mengapa sebuah tradisi budaya musyarakat berangsur-angsur hilang, khususnya pada budaya tradisi yang bersifat aktivitas.

This research aims to understand the effect of metal ions bioabsorption which belong on different elemental groups to the methanol dehydrogenase (MDH) enzymatic activity in nitrogen-fixing bacteria Bradyhizobium japonicum USDA 110. Ten metal ions with each have 30μM concentration were added to grow Bradyhizobium japonicum USDA 110 in 10-1 diluted nutrient medium. The MDH activity test showed a similar result between the bacteria grown in medium without metal ions addition (control) and the bacteria were grown in a calcium ion/Ca2+ added media. The highest MDH enzymatic activity was shown on the bacteria grown in a magnesium/Mg2+ added medium, which showed 0.08 (U/mg) enzymatic activities. The addition of magnesium/Mg2+ metal ion accelerates the bacterial growth by 2.6 times and MDH activity by 1.28 times compared to control. The MDH enzyme is essential, especially for bacteria which exist in the soil environment, to adapt to high methanol concentration and to support bacterial anaerobic growth capacity along with plant symbiotic process. Moreover, the MDH activity staining method could also act as pollutant indicators like metal ions and hydrocarbon derivates. This research concluded that metal ions biosorption (calcium/Ca2+ and magnesium/Mg2+) are required for bacterial cells reproduction and oxidation of single carbon chain compounds like methanol. The nitrogen-fixing symbiotic bacteria, Bradyhizobium japonicum USDA 110 showed high MDH activity after the two metal ions absorption. However, contrary results were shown on vanadium/V3+, manganese/Mn2+, iron/Fe3+, copper/Cu2+, zinc/Zn2+, and aluminum/Al3+ absorption, which showed low MDH activity and cells biomass.

Published: July 2018

The solution of the problem of reliable functioning of an electric power system (EPS) in steady-state and transient regimes, prevention of EPS transition into asynchronous regime, maintenance and restoration of stability of post-emergency processes is based on formation and realization of mathematical models of an EPS processes. During the functioning of electric power system in asynchronous regime, besides the main frequencies, the currents and voltages include harmonic components, the frequencies of which are multiple of the difference of main frequencies. At the two-frequency asynchronous regime the electric power system is being made equivalent in a form of a two-machine system, functioning for a generalized load. In the article mathematical models of transient process of a two-machine system in natural form and in d–q coordinate system are presented. The mathematical model of two-machine system is considered in case of two windings of excitement at the rotors. Also, in the article varieties of mathematical models of EPS transient regimes (trivial, simple, complete) are presented. Transient process of a synchronous two-machine system is described by the complete model. The quality of transient processes of a synchronous machine depends on the number of rotor excitation windings. When there are two excitation windings on the rotor (dual system of excitation), the mathematical model of electromagnetic transient processes of a synchronous machine is represented in a complex form, i.e. in coordinate system d, q, the current of rotor being represented by a generalized vector. In asynchronous operation of a synchronous two-machine system with two excitation windings on the rotor the current and voltage systems include only harmonics of two frequencies. The mathematical model of synchronous steady-state process of a two-machine system is also provided, and the steady-state regimes with different structures of initial information are considered.

The assessment of the suitability of cables of 6–110 kV with XLPE insulation in comparison with cables of the same voltage but possessing paper-oil insulation has been fulfilled on the basis of the criterion of reduced costs. Thus, the comparison was undertaken between cables of various design and material of insulation: three-core paper insulated ones vs. three-core XLPE insulated ones; three-core paper-insulated ones vs. solid wires with XLPE insulation; single-core oil-filled cables of 110 kV with paper insulation vs. solid wires of 110 kV with XLPE insulation. The increase in long-term permissible current loads for cables with XLPE insulation because of the larger permissible temperature of heating in comparison with cables with paper-oil insulation complies with as would increase in the cross-sectional area of cable cores (equal to 0.61 from the original) and therefore reduces the cost of the cable by reducing the cost of manufacture of conductors. The reduced costs of the construction and operation of cable lines with XLPE insulation (accounting the increase in the cost of a cable 1.2 and 2 times as compared with the cost of a cable with three-core insulation), despite the decline in the cost of manufacture of conductors and the reduced annual operating costs (9 % and 17 % respectively of cable lines of voltage of up to 35 kV and 110 kV), occurred to be more than the reduced costs of the construction and operation of cable lines with paper insulation. Currently the cost of one meter of cable with XLPE insulation is less than the cost of cables of AAB, CASB, AASv types of a voltage of 10 kV with aluminium cores, that ensures their undeniable efficacy.

The assessment of the suitability of cables of 6–110 kW with XLPE insulation in comparison with cables of the same voltage but possessing paper-oil insulation has been fulfilled on the basis of the method of multi-objective optimization that makes it possible to account not only the quantitative characteristics (of reduced costs), but also qualitative ones. As an indicator of the reliability of the cable line the maximum mean time to failure (the value inversely proportional to the parameter of succession of failures), which is an order more for cable lines with XLPE insulation than for cable lines with paper insulation, is adopted. A comprehensive assessment of the convenience of installation of cable lines revealed that the installation of cable with XLPE insulation features a 1.2–1.6 times easier installation as compared to three-wire (voltage 10 kW) and 1.4 times easier installation as compared to single-core oil-filled cables (voltage of 110 kW). The efficacy of the cables 6–110 kW with XLPE insulation is proved on the basis on the method of multi-objective optimization, that took into account as the costs for the construction and operation of cable lines and the reliability of its operation, ease of its installation and other quality indicators. If the goals taken into account are considered as equally important, the polyethylene-insulated cables for a voltage of 10–110 kW is more efficient as compared to three-wire (voltage 10 kW) and solid (110 kW) cables with paper insulation. Herewith, the cost of the cable with XLPE insulation may exceed the cost of cable with paper insulation up to two times. If the most important aim is to provide the minimum reduced costs for the construction and operation of the cable line, the use of cables with XLPE insulation for voltage of 10 kW is most advisable in individual cases.
CONSIDERATION OF THE IMPACT OF HIGH HARMONICS WHEN SELECTING THE CONDUCTOR CROSS-SECTIONS OF LINES OF OUTDOOR LIGHTING
Authors: Kozlovskaya V. B. , Kalechyts V. N.
Published: July 2018

The operating mode of the lighting line depends on the correct choice of conductor cross section. The magnitude of the cross section has an influence on the provision of the required voltage levels on the light sources. The choice of the conductor cross section has been fulfilled based on calculations of the operating mode of the standard line of outdoor lighting specified in the article. Luminaries with high pressure sodium lamps connected through electromagnetic ballasts were used as sources of light. When choosing the conductor cross section of light lines a number of simplifications are commonly used. Attention is paid to the choice of sections without such assumptions: the inductive resistance of conductors is taken into account; the power of the luminaire depends on the voltage level in it. Luminaries with high pressure sodium lamps are the sources of high harmonics. Three variants of calculation are demonstrated depending on the accounting (or non-accounting) of high odd harmonics. The methods of calculating the mode of the lighting line are also presented in the article. The calculation is performed with the aid of Mathcad software. Operating parameters for each phase of the line (i.e. voltage in the items of the scheme, power, currents, power, and voltage losses in all the sections) were determined. The diagrams of the voltage distribution at items of the lighting line for three variants of calculation are plotted for various sections of aluminum conductors. On this basis the choice of the optimum magnitude of the conductor cross section of the lighting line was made. The obtained results of different calculation variants are compared. The comparison of the results obtained with the use of various methods of calculation was made. The impact of high harmonics on the operating mode of the line under consideration has been analyzed. The presence of high harmonics causes an increase of voltage losses, the distortion of sinusoidal voltage. The current of neutral conductor is comparable with the current of phase conductors, besides, the harmonics multiple of 3 are of great importance as they influence on the magnitude of the current.
