Features of the modern human resources component of the pharmaceutical industry (based on the materials of a survey of employees of pharmaceutical and biotechnological companies and enterprises in Moscow)
Authors: Golikova Natalia S. , Prisyazhnaya Nadezhda V.
Published: January 2023

BACKGROUND: The development of the pharmaceutical industry at the present stage determines the high level of need for specialists with specialized education who have additional knowledge, skills and abilities necessary for the implementation of both research and organizational tasks (first of all, registration of medicines) and knowledge in the field of the regulatory field of the industry. At the same time, one of the most pressing problems of pharmaceutical companies is a personnel shortage, the solution of which requires strengthening cooperation between specialized universities and industry enterprises.
OBJECTIVE: The purpose was to study the trajectories of professional formation and adaptation of specialists of pharmaceutical industry organizations.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The article presents the results of a study carried out by a questionnaire survey (authors questionnaire) conducted among employees of eight pharmaceutical and biotechnological companies and enterprises in Moscow (n=211), which allowed us to determine the features of the formation of personnel and professional development of specialists in the modern pharmaceutical industry.
RESULTS: Currently, the pharmaceutical industry is experiencing a shortage of personnel with basic pharmaceutical education, which forces enterprises to hire employees with basic chemical, biotechnological or medical education, as well as representatives of related professions who acquire special pharmaceutical knowledge already in the course of their work. In turn, graduates of pharmaceutical faculties are reluctant to join pharmaceutical companies and organizations, because after graduation they do not have the practical skills and competencies necessary to work in them. In the current situation, various forms of professional development, obtaining additional professional, second and higher education are of particular importance, which in most cases is encouraged by employers interested in obtaining qualified personnel.
CONCLUSION: The dynamics of the development of domestic pharmacy in the near future is expected to determine the transformation of ideas (social portrait) about a specialist in the pharmaceutical industry, which, among other things, will contribute to strengthening the prestige of the profession. At the same time, the processes of digital and technological development of the industry necessitate the continuous updating of educational programs of universities for the training of specialists with pharmaceutical education that meets the challenges of modernity.

Published: January 2023

Finger vein biometrics is one of the most promising ways to identify a person because it can provide uniqueness, protection against forgery, and bioassay. Due to the limitations of the imaging environments, however, the finger vein images that are taken can quickly become low-contrast, blurry, and very noisy. Therefore, more robust and relevant feature extraction from the finger vein images is still open research that should be addressed. In this paper, we propose a new technique of deep learning that is based on the attention mechanisms for human finger vein image identification and recognition and is called deep regional learning. Our proposed model relies on an unsupervised learning method that depends on optimized K-Means clustering for localized finger vein mask generation. The generated binary mask is used to build our attention learning model by making the deep learning structure focus on the region-of-interest (ROI) learning instead of learning the whole feature domain. This technique makes the Deep Regional Attention Model learn more significant features with less time and computational resources than the regular deep learning model. For experimental validation, we used different finger vein imaging datasets that have been extracted and generated using our model. Original finger vein images, localized finger vein images (with no background), localized grayscale finger vein images (grayscale images with no background and projected finger vein lines), and localized colored finger vein images (colored images with no background and projected finger vein lines) are used to train and test our model, which gets better results than traditional deep learning and other methods.

Authors: He Jianbiao , Li Changqing
Published: January 2023

The real scene data of production images and videos collected by the perception layer of the industrial Internet of Things, which are shot under the conditions of lack of illumination, underexposure and insufficient contrast, need to be fully and efficiently utilized to ensure the smooth progress of the follow-up supervision, monitoring, detection and tracking of the industrial Internet of Things. Therefore, this paper studies the intelligent recognition method of digital images on production data collected by industrial Internet of Thing. Firstly, the video or image data collected by the industrial Internet of Things monitoring platform are preprocessed to achieve the purpose of image clarity and targeting. It includes constrained least square restoration and Lucy-Richardson restoration for image blur caused by defocus, and blind deconvolution restoration for image motion blur caused by vibration. The adaptive histogram equalization algorithm is described in detail, and it can enhance the global contrast of digital images collected by industrial Internet of Things while retaining the details of the target area as much as possible. Based on U-net convolution network, the target recognition model of digital images collected by industrial Internet of Things is constructed, and spatial convolution pooling pyramid and improved convolution module Inception are introduced to optimize the model. Experimental results verify the effectiveness of the model.

Authors: Vafaye Ali , Heydari Kamran , Mardanparvar Hossein , Kaseb Ali Alizadeh , Safari Saeed
Published: January 2023

Introduction: Emergency medicine (EM) is a relatively new medical specialty, which concerns patients who need vital and urgent medical care. This study aimed to evaluate the general medicine interns’ attitude in continuing their education in EM residency programs.
Methods: This study is a prospective cross-sectional study, which was performed on 180 medical students during their internship using convenience sampling. Data were collected using a valid and reliable researcher-made questionnaire and analyzed using SPSS 26 software.
Results: One hundred and eighty medical students in the internship period with the mean of 25.65 ± 2.72 (23 – 46) years were studied (53.3% male; 76.7% single). Only 33 (18.3%) interns indicated their interest in continuing their education in EM residency programs. 30 (16.66) cases were not interested in continuing their education in any residency program (61.1% of whom cited migration as the reason, 13% cited not working as a specialist, 14.8% indicated lack of economic justification, and 11.1% cited other reasons for not wanting to enter residency programs). The mean overall interest score to EM residency program was 59.61 ± 12.66 % (20 – 96.41%). The lowest and highest interest scores obtained in the economic status (47.91 ± 21.13%) and education status (70.59 ± 15.77%) of EM specialty, respectively. The mean overall interest score was not statistically different between male and female students (p = 0.366). There was a significant statistical correlation between gender and type of discipline chosen, and female mostly chose non-surgical disciplines (p = 0.001).
Conclusion: The interest of general medicine interns in continuing their education in EM residency program was average. The economic field of EM has been one of the best factors in attracting students to continue their studies in this field.

Authors: Samimiardestani Seyedmohammadmehdi , Sharifi Meisam , Ranjbar Mehri Farhange
Published: January 2023

Objective: Due to the important role of police during COVID-19 pandemics and lack of previous studies on the impact of personal protective equipment (PPE) in reduction of COVID-19 infection among police officers, we aimed to investigate the role of using PPE in prevention of COVID-19 infection among Iranian police personnel.
Methods: This cross-sectional survey was conducted in Tehran, Iran during January 2021 to November 2022. The study sample consisted of police personnel who were active in field operations. Demographics (age, height, weight, gender, marital status, number of children and underlying diseases) and job characteristics such as frequency and type of operations, involvement of colleagues with COVID-19, and COVID-19 infection history, using PPE, types of used PPE (mask, face shield, gloves, etc), protective strategies (such as social distancing) and COVID-19 vaccination were recorded. Statistical analysis was performed with IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, version 25.
Results: Totally, 340 participants were analyzed (33.54±9.74 years old, 91.2% males), of whom, 150 participants (44.1%) reported at least one episode of confirmed COVID-19 infection. The most common component of PPE used both during operations and daily life was face mask (44.7% and 75%, respectively). The most popular measure with higher adherence compared to others was social distancing with 70% popularity and an adherence score of 5.85±3.74. Three hundred subjects (88.2%) had received at least one dose of COVID-19 vaccine. Among PPE items, using face mask, washing hands with soap, social distancing and vaccination were significantly different between patients with and without prior COVID-19 infection (p>0.05).
Conclusion: The findings showed that use of PPE is significantly efficacious in reduction of COVID-19 infection among police officers. Therefore, despite difficulties of using PPE among police forces, it is strongly recommended for virus spread control in this population.

Objective:
Despite the worldwide spread of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), an effective specific antiviral treatment for coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) is yet to be identified .We did this study to investigate the safety and efficacy of sofosbuvir as antiviral therapy among hospitalized adult patients with SARS-CoV-2.
Methods:
Patients were randomized into intervention arm receiving sofosbuvir or comparison arm receiving usual antiviral agents in addition to standard of care. The primary end point of the study was clinical recovery as defined by normal body temperature and normal oxygen saturation. The main secondary outcome was all-cause mortality during the admission in hospital or within 14 days after discharge if applicable. Reports of severe adverse events were observed in the intervention arm.   
Results:
Fifty-seven patients enrolled into either the clinical trial arm (n=27) or the comparison arm (n=30). Primary outcome was achieved by 24 (88.9%) and 10 (33.3%) in the intervention and comparison arms, respectively. Median hospital length of stay was significantly shorter in the intervention arm (10 days [IQR: 5-12] vs. 11.5 days [IQR: 8.5-17.75], P = 0.016).
All-cause mortality was two and thirteen in intervention and comparison groups, respectively. No serious adverse events were reported by the patients receiving sofosbuvir during the study.
Conclusion:
Among patients hospitalized with SARS-CoV-2, those who received sofosbuvir had more clinical recovery rate and had a shorter hospital length of stay than those who received usual antiviral agents in the study and these differences were statistically significant.

Published: January 2023

The diagnosis and treatment of foreign bodies in the urogenital system are difficult and it’s rare in children; It may also cause secondary injuries. In this article, we present a 14-year-old male patient who was admitted to the emergency outpatient clinic with complaints of difficulty in voiding and dysuria. He was diagnosed with a pin in the urethra and treated using an endoscopic method. He was hospitalised for foreign body removal after he admitted in his anamnesis about insertion a pin into his urethra the day before his complaints started. A pin was seen in the urethra on the urethrocystoscopy, and was successfully removed. Since foreign body in the urogenital system is rare in children, it is necessary to suspect, in order to make the diagnosis. In most cases, endoscopic intervention is sufficient. Psychiatric consultation should be requested for the patients, especially for pediatrics.

Authors: Fu Haiyan , Sun Lin , Zhu Jingwei
Published: January 2023

Background: In this study, the diagnostic efficacy of antigen test and antibody test were assessed. Additionally, the difference of sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic odds ratio were compared concerning efficacy of antibody test versus antigen test for Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) diagnosis.
Methods: Online databases were searched for full-text publications and STATA software was used for data pooling and analysis before Sep 1st, 2022. Forrest plot was used to show the pooled sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic odds ratio. Combined receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to show the area of under curve of complex data.
Results: Overall, 25 studies were included. The sensitivity (0.68, 95% CI: 0.53-0.80) and specificity (0.99, 95% CI: 0.98-0.99) in antibody or antigen was calculated. The time point of test lead to heterogeneity. The area under curve (AUC) was 0.98 (95% CI: 0.96-0.99), and the diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) was 299.54 (95% CI: 135.61-661.64). Subgroup analysis indicated antibody test with sensitivity (0.59, 95% CI: 0.44-0.73) and specificity (0.98, 95% CI: 0.95-0.99) and antigen test with sensitivity of 0.77 (95% CI: 0.53-0.91) and specificity of 0.99 (95% CI: 0.98-1.00). Higher AUC and DOR were proved in antigen test.
Conclusion: The present study compared the efficacy of antibody test versus antigen test for COVID-19 diagnosis. Better diagnostic efficacy, lower heterogeneity, and less publication bias of rapid antigen testing was suggested in this study. This study would help us to make better strategy about choosing rapid and reliable testing method in diagnosis of the COVID-19 disease.

Background: Sexual and marital satisfaction play an important role in the stability of couples' relationships, so it is necessary to take a proper approach to promote them. This study aimed to identify and categorize psychological interventions affecting sexual satisfaction and marital satisfaction of women in Iran.
Methods: An electronic systematic review search was conducted using the Persian and English databases of SID, Embase, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Medline, Cochran library, and Google Scholar motor engine until 2021 to identify all relevant clinical trials and experimental and quasi-experimental studies assessing the effect of psychological interventions on sexual and marital satisfaction.
Results: Totally, we retrieved 528 studies from the previously mentioned databases, of which, 38 met the eligibility criteria. The subgroup meta-analysis of 4 studies conducted showed that interventions based on individual consultations increase sexual satisfaction (MD: 2.94, 95% CI: −0.36 to 6.24, P= .23), (I2 =30.83%). The subgroup meta-analysis of 10 studies conducted revealed that couple-based consultations increase marital satisfaction (MD: 5.93, 95% CI: -2.59 to 9.27, P=.95), (I2 = 0%).
Conclusion: The results of meta-analysis demonstrated the effect of counseling-based psychological interventions on increasing sexual and marital satisfaction of couples. However, further clinical trials are required before making a definitive conclusion.
Selenium Removal from Water and Wastewater by Different Technologies: A Systematic Review
Authors: Fadaei Abdolmajid , Mohammadian-Hafshejani Abdollah
Published: January 2023

Background: Selenium (Se) is an essential element playing a vital role in the metabolism of organisms. Se can generally be discharged in the potable water through natural and anthropogenic activities. Both excess and shortage of Se can cause significant adverse health effects in humans. Excess values of se may stimulate toxicity, leading to selenosis and alkali disease in humans and grazing animals, respectively.
Methods: A review search was systematically carried out from the databases Embase, PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, PubMed Central (PMC), Google Scholar, as well as medRxiv by using the following keywords: “waste water”, “bioremediation”, “selenium removal”, “adsorption”, and “drinking water”. This study provides a review of the recent literature covering the period between 2011 and 2021. After screening the full text of the articles, 27 papers were enrolled. This study reviews the reported techniques for Se removal from water and wastewater, including adsorption, biological treatment, microbial reduction, bioreactors, fungal bioreactor, algal treatment, phytoremediation, and photocatalysis.
Results: Biological and bioremediation techniques, such as microbial reduction, biotransformation, and fluidized bed reactor have removal efficiency about 100%. The highest Se concentration of 15-7600 µg/L was achieved in ground waters in Ethiopia and the lowest level of 0.07 µg /L in Finland.
Conclusion: The combination of biological treatment with chemical or physical technologies is envisaged to optimize se elimination and to ensure ecological protection and human health safety.

Authors: Lee Soo-Kyung , Kim Gi Yon , Seo Eun Ji , Son Youn-Jung
Published: January 2023

Background: Smartwatches are a consumer wearable device offering a potential, practical, and affordable method to collect personal health data in healthy adults. For patients with chronic diseases, this would enable symptom monitoring and aid clinical decision making. Therefore, providing customized checklists to recommend smartwatches is beneficial. However, few studies have evaluated the practical functions of smartwatches and their influence on user acceptance. We aimed at developing a reliable tool to assess the quality of smartwatches from the users’ perspective.
Methods: To develop the smartwatch rating scale (SWRS), we conducted a comprehensive literature review as well as reviewed relevant websites. The SWRS includes 22 items for the usability (usability, functionality, safety, material, and display) and five items for the acceptance and adoption domain (satisfaction and intention). We measured the scale’s internal consistency and inter-rater reliability by evaluating seven smartwatches.
Results: The overall scale demonstrated an excellent level of internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.91), with each subscale’s internal consistency above good level (0.74 ~ 0.92). Inter-rater reliability using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) was at good level (2-way random ICC = 0.82, 95% CI 0.09 – 0.97).
Conclusions: The SWRS is reliable, which can meet the need for assessment of smartwatch technology for utilizing in personal healthcare. Accounting for users’ perspectives will help make the most of technology without impairing the human aspects of care, this study can help consumers choose a smartwatch based on their preferences and provide guidelines for developing user-friendly wearable devices aimed at health behavior changes.
Public Health and Perceived Human Rights status in Montenegro among Different Age Groups: The National Study
Authors: Vuksanovic Stankovic Draginja , Masanovic Bojan
Published: January 2023

Background: The aim of this study was to quantify perceived human rights status and put it into perspective to identify areas for monitoring action and progress.
Methods: The subjects of this cross-sectional study included a sample of 703 respondents (369 males and 334 females) aged between 18 and 82 yr, divided into four age groups. The research was conducted from 23 Apr to 9 Nov 2021 and respondents from all 24 municipalities of Montenegro were included. The sample of variables contained the system of 19 general attitudes, which give a review of human rights accomplishments (modeled by a seven-point Likert scale). The variables were analyzed using ANOVA, MANOVA, and LSD Post Hoc test.
Results: There were differences in the perceived human rights status for different age groups when the interin- dividual level of interaction (most negative answers in-group IV) and the principle of human rights legislation participation (most negative answers in group I) were considered.
Conclusion: This fact indicates the existence of vulnerable age groups. Members of the oldest age category do not succeed in accomplishing adequate interpersonal communication with the persons from their nearest envi- ronment, while the opinion of the youngest age category is not respected enough and the possibility to participate equally in the making of important decisions is not being provided to them.
A Spontaneous Transomental Hernia: A Rare Cause of Bowel Obstruction
Authors: Ergenç Muhammer , Uprak Tevfik Kıvılcım
Published: January 2023

Internal hernias (IH) are rare situations that account for 0.5–3% of all cases of intestinal obstruction. Transomental hernia is a rare subtype, hardly diagnosed, and represents approximately only 2% of internal hernias. In 2018, a 41-year-old female patient presented to Marmara University Hospital emergency service with abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Her medical history included asthma, and she had no abdominal surgery. With the preliminary diagnosis of small bowel obstruction, laparotomy was done and showed a loop of ileum was herniated through into an unusual defect of the omentum. The obstructed loop of the small intestine into the hernia site was reduced. It was seen as viable, so no resection was necessitated. We divided the greater omentum into two parts from the edge of the defect area to prevent recurrences. The patient's postoperative period was uneventful, and she was discharged on the second postoperative day. Small bowel strangulation is more seen in transomental hernia than in other internal hernia types. So it is related to high morbidity and mortality. Surgery should not be delayed to reduce complications.

Temperature dependence of the viscosity of water-fuel oil emulsions
Authors: Chernenko A.S. , Shyngarov G.L. , Ivanov M.O. , Sydorov О.Е.
Published: January 2023

The experimental dependence of the kinematic viscosity of oil-water emulsions on temperature was examined. Oil-water emulsions with a high water content (up to 60%) were prepared by long-term mechanical stirring in a cylindrical vessel using a screw with metal brushes. The Stokes method was used to determine the viscosity. Emulsions are opaque liquids. Therefore, the movement metal ball's time between the upper and lower layers of liquid was determined. At the same time, there was a layer of water under the emulsion in the tube. To measure the viscosity at different temperatures, the system was placed in a larger flask through which heated water was pumped.

As a result, it was experimentally shown that the fuel oil viscosity is lower than oil-water emulsions viscosity (at the same temperatures). As the water content in the emulsion increases, its viscosity increases. In order to meet the conditions of optimal sprey of WOE (as well as other similar fuels), they must be heated to temperatures higher than those recommended for pure (non-emulsified) fuel oil.
Spectroscopy of the interaction of cosmic plasma flows with the Earth's atmospheric aerosols
Authors: Doykov M.D. , Doykov D.M.
Published: January 2023

The article deals with questions about the interaction of solar plasma flows with atmospheric gas containing CDP molecules and particles. Modeling and calculations of existing electric currents and their structure were carried out. Conclusions are drawn about the effect on the structure of the current both from the side of the atmosphere and from cosmic streams of different composition. The equation of motion of a plasma with a condensed dispersed phase (CDP) in the Earth's ionosphere is considered. Conclusions are drawn about the effect of CDP on the thermal balance of plasma. It has been found that in rarefied layers of the ionosphere, plasma flows mixed with CDP are subjected to significant additional heating from CDP particles, and the lower ones serve as a heat-removing agent. Attention is drawn to the most important aspects of the results obtained in the context of their impact on the operation of power supply networks during strong solar flares. Taking into account the nature of the explosive processes that form the plasma flows from which the electric current is formed, the fluctuations of the currents inside the magnetic tubes are determined. The possible influence of these factors on the operation of the power grid line in the mountains, around the polar and equatorial zones is also considered. Such influence depends on the amplitude fluctuations of the physical parameters of the medium that forms the atmospheric currents.
REVISING PRINCIPLES FOR THE HISTORY OF UKRAINIAN TRANSLATION STUDIES : CASE OF PRIASHIV UKRAINE
Authors: SHMIHER Taras V.
Published: January 2023

The objective of the study is to highlight the contribution of Ukrainian researchers in Priashiv (Prešov in Slovak) as an organic and integral component of Ukrainian translation studies and to examine the extent to which such an approach requires a change in principles to describe the Ukrainian national academic tradition. The main research tasks were to revise the principles for studying the history of Ukrainian translation studies, establish sources, review key editions and publications and clarify the role of nationality and academic institutions in the development of research areas. The methodology is based on the principles of studying the general climate of opinion, immanence and relevance, which provides an objective historiographical analysis and creates opportunities for a comprehensive historiographical synthesis. The novelty lies in the introduction of research materials from Priashiv Region into the systematic study in the context of the history of Ukrainian translation studies. Conclusions. The history of Priashiv Ukrainians’ translation studies testifies that the most important factors for identifying the affiliation of individual papers to the national academic school are language and ethnicity, while genetic links (references to sources) and typology of methods are also important, but Ukrainian translation studies – like most national schools of translation studies in the world – did not create a specific national theory of translation. At the same time, there is still a danger that the “Ukrainian translation studies” of Priashiv Region will lose its continuity with the traditions of translation studies in the Ukrainian State and exist only as part of the “Slovak school of Ukrainian studies”. For supporting the development of Priashiv academic school, which will be most beneficial both for Ukraine and Slovakia, it is necessary to strengthen and develop the Ukrainian researching and academic institutions of Priashiv Region.
TRANSFORMATIONAL FEATURES OF "CORONAVIRUS" ANTI-PROVERBS IN THE RUSSIAN LANGUAGE
Authors: Mao You , Yan Zhike
Published: January 2023

Summary. Research purpose – to analyze the ways in which anti-proverbs in Russian were transformed during the COVID-19 pandemic; to reveal the mentality of people in Russia during the pandemic as reflected in these anti-proverbs. Research object – Russian anti-proverbs during the COVID-19 pandemic. Research methodology – Word frequency statistics; comparative analysis; corpus analysis; literature analysis. Research result – 89 Russian anti-proverbs of pandemic were analyzed in terms of their ways of transformation, and it was found that 81 of them used substitution, 5 used associative extension, 2 used both ways, and 1 used homonymic mean. Word frequency statistics of thematic vocabulary were done for these anti-proverbs to obtain high frequency thematic vocabulary, and the results are as follows: вирус (23), карантин (8), маска (7), чихать (7), ковид (5), лечиться (5), вакцина / прививочный (5), заразить (4), Ухань / китаец (4), пандемия (3), инфицированный (3), антисептик (3). Conclusion. By collating and analyzing the anti-proverbs that appeared in Russian during the pandemic, it was found that the transformation of anti-proverbs during the period included substitution, extension, and a combination of various methods. Meanwhile, high-frequency words such as карантин, маска, чихать etc. in the anti-proverbs reflected to a certain extent the living conditions of Russian people during the pandemic. The anti-proverbs themselves contained a wealth of content, including people's fear and disgust of the virus, their ambivalence toward home quarantine, their negative attitude toward the vaccine at the beginning of the epidemic, as well as their misunderstanding of Wuhan, China. At the same time, they took an active role in protection, washing their hands regularly, wearing masks, and keeping social distance, and gained inspiration for healthy living from the epidemic. Value of research. Theoretically, the study of Russian anti-proverbs during the pandemic period can effectively contribute to the development of linguistics as a new change in the language; practically, we can see from these anti-proverbs some characteristics of people's mentality during that period. In addition, the humorous feature of anti-proverbs can be used in the education of Russian language to enhance students' interest in learning Russian proverbs and thus help them memorize traditional proverbs.

Approximately 90% of all lymphomas are classified as non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), a subtype of lymphoma originating in other parts of the immune system outside the lymph nodes. Adult NHL may be classified as either B-cell lymphoma, T-cell lymphoma, or natural killer cell lymphoma, according to the World Health Organization's (WHO) categorization system. According to the statistics, about one and a half million new people are diagnosed with cancer in a year in Bangladesh, among which more than seven thousand people are affected by various blood cancers. Non-Hodgkin and Hodgkin lymphoma, leukaemia, and myeloma belong to blood cancers. Treatment also varies depending on the disease's type and stage or risk. The paper aims to express the current condition of NHL & the treatment approach for this disease by analysing the literature and data of Bangladesh.

A Educação Ambiental é o processo responsável por formar indivíduos que se preocupam com a natureza e com o desenvolvimento sustentável das futuras gerações. Isso posto, a escola tem importante função no fomento à consciência ambiental dos alunos. Assim, o presente trabalho qualitativo utilizou o método de pesquisa bibliográfica e da Análise de de Bardin para avaliar sete dos doze livros discriminados no PNLD 2020 com relação às temáticas da Educação Ambiental abordadas no nono ano do Ensino Fundamental. A análise dos livros de Ciências verificou que o conteúdo de Educação Ambiental é ainda apresentado de forma fragmentado e muitas vezes incipiente. Com base nos dados obtidos, discute-se a necessidade do tema ser tratado nos livros didáticos como um conteúdo transversal organizado didaticamente integrando diferentes assuntos, com enfoque maior para uma abordagem prática da Educação Ambiental.
Formação inicial com foco nas altas habilidades/superdotação: práticas inclusivas em ciências biológicas
Authors: Brunetti Dulceni Avila
Published: January 2023

O tema inclusão de estudantes com necessidades educacionais especiais é normalmente atrelado a alguma deficiência e habitualmente os estudantes com Altas Habilidades/Superdotação (AH/SD) não são vistos como público da Educação Especial. Para mudar essa realidade este trabalho socializa uma pesquisa desenvolvida em 2021 que propôs que os conhecimentos sobre a temática Altas Habilidades/Superdotação (AH/SD sejam tratadas desde a formação inicial de professores, pois cabem aos mesmos as adequações necessárias ao desenvolvimento do potencial desses estudantes. Por conseguinte, este trabalho, resultado de uma pesquisa de mestrado visa contribuir para a formação inicial de professores do curso de Ciências Biológicas no tocante a temática AH/SD, por meio da intervenção de um curso. A metodologia adotada na pesquisa foi qualitativa na modalidade participante. Os sujeitos da pesquisa foram quinze graduandos do quarto ano da disciplina de Estágio Supervisionado em Ciências Biológicas II, do curso de Ciências Biológicas-Licenciatura da UNICENTRO, Guarapuava-PR. Na análise dos resultados, percebeu-se que o curso contribuiu de maneira significativa na formação inicial docente, ampliando os olhares dos participantes sobre a temática proposta.  De maneira geral, os licenciandos surpreenderam positivamente quanto ao interesse em relação a temática tratada e aos avanços significativos em relação aos conceitos e conhecimentos prévios demonstrados inicialmente
O erro na Matemática no contexto do ensino remoto: percepções de professores
Authors: Silva Marcelo Henrique Moreira Oliveira , Fernandes Janaína Da Silva Gonçalves
Published: January 2023

A pesquisa busca compreender as percepções de professores sobre a ocorrência do erro no processo de ensino e aprendizagem da matemática no ensino remoto. O método utilizado é de abordagem qualitativa, do tipo descritivo exploratório. Foram convidados a participar da pesquisa dez professores, de ambos os sexos, que estavam à disposição do pesquisador, por técnica de amostragem denominada Snowball.  Para a coleta de dados foram utilizados questionários sociodemográfico e estruturado, compartilhados em formulário do Google por meio virtual. Os dados foram analisados por meio da análise do conteúdo da Classificação Hierárquica Descendente. Os resultados permitiram a inferência de seis categorias relacionadas as percepções destes professores sobre os desafios no ensino remoto: vídeo chamadas online, Google sala de aula, maior confiança nas aulas presenciais, ensino híbrido como opção para aprendizagem, dificuldades com conteúdos remotos e adaptação ao ensino remoto. Em relação ao erro no ensino-aprendizagem da matemática na percepção destes professores foram cinco categorias inferidas: ensinar exercícios rotineiros, processo de ensino e aprendizagem remota em crianças, adolescentes e adultos, maior dificuldade de apoiar o aluno no ensino remoto, necessidade de maior valorização e investimento nas aulas de matemática, entender as dúvidas perante o erro. Considerou-se que tema sobre o erro no processo de ensino aprendizagem da matemática no contexto do ensino remoto aparece de uma forma vaga, pois este assunto é tratado como resolução de problemas e com pouco enfoque de tratar os possíveis erros como fonte de aprendizado e não como fonte de punição.

El propósito de este estudio es analizar las estrategias de medios de vida de los hogares mayas beneficiarios de los programas de política pública en términos de acceso, combinación y transformación de sus activos de capital, información necesaria para el adecuado desarrollo de los programas. Este estudio es cualitativo y el método empleado la etnografía, mediante entrevistas a profundidad y observación directa. Se encontró que la agricultura tradicional, el trabajo remunerado de las mujeres, la dicotomía migración-permanencia del jefe del hogar en la comunidad, la educación y migración de la juventud rural son estrategias empleadas por los hogares mayas. La política pública productiva se enfoca en incentivar los capitales físico y financiero en los hogares, aunque también dependen de los activos de capital humano, el cual es abordado en la política social de manera insuficiente. Finalmente, el capital cultural y el capital social no han sido tenidos en cuenta de manera amplia en la política pública.
Are We Creatures of Logic or Emotions? Investigating the Role of Attitudes, Worldviews, Emotions, and Knowledge Gain From Environmental Interpretation on Behavioural Intentions of Park Visitors

Environmental interpretation can improve sustainability by mitigating the negative impacts of nature-based recreation. However, we do not fully understand the psychological factors that influence interpretation’s efficacy in changing human behaviours. Specifically, the role of emotions has been understudied within environmental psychology and nature-based recreation. This study, therefore, provides further insight into the psychological processes driving pro-environmental behavioural intentions among overnight visitors attending personal interpretation programs in provincial parks in Alberta, Canada. In 2018 and 2019, we surveyed 763 attendees of personal interpretation events. We used latent variable structural regression modeling to test the hypothesized relationships between ecological worldview, attitudes, emotions, and pro-environmental behaviours. As predicted, there were positive relationships between worldviews, affective and cognitive attitudes, and emotions; these variables and knowledge gain were positively associated with pro-environmental behaviours. Findings suggest that interpretation should focus programming on the affective elements of communication, target personal meaning such as responsibility to act, and continue to transmit knowledge.
The Role of Triple Loop Learning in Fostering Future Conservation Leaders: Assessing High-Impact Practices

Published: January 2023

Higher education institutions identify and support practices that enhance student engagement and increase student success. In this article, we explored student learning facilitated through High Impact Practices (HIPs) (i.e., in-class undergraduate research, service learning, internships) integrated in the Sustainability & Conservation Leadership Minor at Old Dominion University. In this new transdisciplinary minor, which was developed in partnership with the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, cohorts of students share three mandatory courses, including a capstone internship. Post-internship reflections were coded using triple loop learning theory, which identifies individuals’ values, beliefs, and ideologies. Results indicate students identified the internship as essential for career discernment and agency literacy, as well as inter- and intra-personal awareness to address sustainability challenges. The results underline that the impact of HIPs can be amplified if multiple HIPs are integrated in a comprehensive program addressing real-world problems through experiential learning within and outside of the classroom.
How Do Outdoor Recreationists Perceive the State of the Environment and Do Interpretive Programs Make a Difference?
Authors: Mallette Angela , Plummer Ryan
Published: January 2023

Environmental interpretation provides visitors with positive experiences in nature while managing their impacts. Existing research has concentrated on the influence of interpretive programs on visitor knowledge, attitudes, and behaviours. Little empirical research exists on how visitors perceive their environment. In this research we examine the effect of environmental interpretation on visitors’ perceptions of the environment. The study took place in the Niagara Glen Nature Reserve, Canada. A survey is administered to visitors on self-guided experiences and visitors receiving two different interpretive programs. Perceptions are compared to ecological data. Visitors rated conditions higher than ecological data, regardless of participation in an interpretive program. There was no significant influence of an interpretive program on perceptions. Findings from this pilot study highlight the need for interpretive programs to examine their effectiveness of achieving its outcomes as well as the benefits of using a reference such as ecological data.
“Going Green”: Investigating Environmental Sustainability Practices in Camp Organizations across the United States

Published: January 2023

Our study explored current environmental sustainability practices of U.S. camps as well as the motivations and barriers influencing integration of sustainable operational approaches. Using a web survey of camp organizations in Spring 2021, we identified participation in sustainable actions across five broad categories: waste management, sustainability education and communication, natural resource and wildlife conservation, energy and water consumption, and purchasing and procurement. Many camp organizations already engaged in sustainable practices—especially with respect to waste management and sustainability education—but almost all camps wanted to do more. Camp organizations placed higher priority on environmental and social motivations for sustainability than economic reasons. The largest perceived barrier to sustainability was inadequate financial and/or technological resources, though lack of awareness and capacity-building assistance were also constraints. Results highlight strong interest in sustainability across the camp industry and reveal multiple ways to realize that potential.
