Authors: KUZNETSOVA M.A. , RUBEL O.Ye. , AGHAYEV А.
Published: March 2024

Topicality. The relevance of the topic under study is based on the identification and analysis of modern transformational trends reflecting the objective transition process from traditional market relations, which involve the dominance of the capital presented in the form of means of production, to those that distinguish science and human intellectual abilities as production determining factors. The gradual process of the knowledge economy relations formation requires reconsideration of the role of science and education as the results of scientific activities that were separated from employees in an industrial society are now associated with a person, an expert who is able to produce new knowledge and implement innovative projects thus changing the content of production relations. In accordance with these processes, the concept of public goods is being developed both from the point of view of transforming their characteristics and in terms of the criterion of increasing their categories. In the modern world, in economically developed countries, higher education is interpreted as a public good, which explains the increase of scientific interest in this phenomenon and the relevance of research on this range of problems. The scientific consideration of these issues becomes particularly relevant for Ukraine as this country seeks to be involved in the European community as an equal partner, which requires taking into account and implementing the basic principles of EU development in this country.AIm and tasks. The aim of this research is to theoretically analyse the essence of higher education as a public good, which is one of the elements manifestation of the knowledge economy coming into being process.Materials and Methods. In the course of this research, the following scientific methods were used: the methods of moving from the abstract to the concrete, scientific hypothesis, analysis and synthesis.Research results. As a result of this study, the public goods concept transformation was analysed in accordance with the evolutionary development of economic relations, based on which the theoretical content of higher education as a public good in the context of the knowledge economy formation was revealed.Conclusion. New guidelines for directions in social development related to the growing role of education and scientific knowledge as the main modern driving forces. The sphere of education and science today stands out not only as the most important factor of economic development, but also as the main factor that ensures the progress of society as a whole. According to this position, science and education should be considered as public goods.

Published: March 2024

PT Agro Sinergi Nusantara PKS Aceh Seujahtera is a company engaged in the plantation and processing of oil palm fruit, where the production is in the form of crude palm oil (CPO), palm kernel and fiber. This factory has 2 horizontal type sterilizers with a capacity of 40 tons each.  One machine that has a vital role in the production process is the screw press. Based on the results of observations and interviews with the company, it was found that the screw press machine was often damaged in the production process, as a result the production process was stopped and production results were not optimal, besides that the company would also experience losses. The purpose of this research is to measure the performance of the Screw Press Machine at PT Agro Sinergi Nusantara by calculating OEE through 3 main factors, namely Availability Ratio, Performance Effeciency Ratio, and Quality Ratio and determining corrective actions that can improve the performance of the Screw Press machine. The results of the performance analysis on the screw press machine obtained an Availability Ratio value of 84.52%, Performance Effeciency Ratio of 86.68%, Quality Ratio of 100%, and OEE of 73.37%. Based on a comparison with the Word Class Ideal Standard, only the Quality Ratio value meets the standard while the Availability Ratio, Performance Effeciency Ratio, and OEE have not met, meaning that the overall performance of the Screw Press Machine has decreased and has not met the Word Class Ideal Standard and it is necessary to improve the performance of the machine. Recommendations for improvements that can be made to improve the performance of the screw press machine again are to carry out routine maintenance on machine components so that damage can be prevented before severe damage occurs and cause longer downtime, conduct training for workers so that they can develop themselves and know more about the machine and the responsibilities that must be carried out, reinforce the implementation of routine and scheduled maintenance (preventive maintenance), and increase supervision during the FFB sorting process.

Improving STEM Education through Resource Activation: A Study of Culturally Relevant Teaching for Critical Data Literacy in a High School Science Classroom
Authors: Shim Jooeun , Yoon Susan A
Published: March 2024

Interest in promoting data literacy among K-12 students has grown, driven by the need to cultivate skills in using data effectively across various fields of study. Integrating discipline-specific curricula, like bioinformatics, which merges biology and informatics, can broaden student engagement in STEM. While earlier efforts focused on technical data skills, recent research emphasizes a sociocultural approach to encourage critical data literacy, aligning with culturally relevant teaching (CRT). This study investigates a teacher's instructional practices for CRT in prompting critical data literacy. We used a resource activation framework that aims to explore the ways in which a teacher utilized material resources (tangible objects and tools), cultural resources (knowledge and skills), social resources (interactions and relationships), and symbolic resources (recognition and prestige). We worked with a science teacher, Tracy, who activated resources to adapt and teach a bioinformatics problem-based learning curriculum rooted in real-world problem-solving in STEM, connecting students with community issues, such as asthma and air quality. We deductively analyzed classroom observation notes, interviews, and recordings of the professional development workshop sessions. We found that during the curriculum implementation, Tracy activated cultural and social resources to enable access to other resources that were not readily available. Our findings suggest that the activation of cultural and social resources concurrently allowed the teacher to address diverse student needs, foster relevance and engagement, collaborate with colleagues, and continuously enhance their teaching practices. Ultimately, activating all four resources empowers teachers to provide high-quality instruction, leading to improved overall STEM education.

The research addressed in the paper focuses on organizing computations to solve NP-complex problems. Specifically, it examines the task of parametric identification of discrete models with distributed parameters based on the analysis of interval data. Computational algorithms inspired by the behavioral models of honeybee colonies are proposed to address this task. The application of the proposed algorithm enhances the efficiency of solving parametric identification problems for interval discrete models with distributed parameters, albeit with high computational time complexity. Therefore, the study suggests using parallel computing algorithms to reduce the time complexity. To assess the effectiveness of parallel computing in identifying interval discrete models with distributed parameters, computational experiments are proposed using examples of modeling air distribution and pollution by automotive exhaust emissions.
The computational experiments, based on behavioral models of honeybee colonies on a four-core processor, demonstrate increased efficiency in all experiments, with higher task complexity leading to greater parallelization efficiency. However, it is noted that the average number of generations required for the parallel algorithm to find a solution is significantly higher in some experiments compared to the sequential algorithm. This sensitivity indicates that the algorithm is highly influenced by the initially generated points in the solution search space. Overall, the study establishes the feasibility of parallelizing the computational scheme for solving parametric identification problems on other promising parallel architectures, such as graphical processors.

Published: March 2024

The efforts of the local government of East Kalimantan Province and Kutai Kartanegara Regency to increase local revenue by proactively taking part in receiving a 10% Participating Interest (PI) offer in the Mahakam Block working area have been successful based on Permen ESDM No. 37 of 2016. The ministerial regulation stipulates that the legal subject for managing the 10% PI has several alternative forms of business entity, namely the old BUMD, new BUMD, or Regional Public Company (Perseroda). Based on these administrative procedures, the legal subject deemed to fulfill the requirements as a legal subject for the 10% PI Manager at the Mahakam WK is PT MMPKM which was formed as a Perseroda business entity. However, this has implications for the emergence of new norms regarding the definition and composition of Perseroda share ownership, as well as the legal subject requirements for managing a 10% PI between the Permen ESDM No. 37 of 2016 and the Regional Government Law, PP BUMD, and PP No. 35 of 2004. Furthermore, because of the scope of state finances, the negative implication is that local governments do not get the maximum regional income from dividends from BUMD holding company PT MMPKM.

The objective of this investigation is to analyze the utilization of prudence in the manifestation of restorative justice in solving cases of persecution and to analyze from the perspective of legal sociology the practice of implementing restorative justice in handling cases of abuse. This thesis uses a legal sociology approach with data collection techniques by observation, interviews, and documentation. Factors that led to the crime of persecution: ego factors, economic factors and environmental factors. In cases of abuse, if there are 2 pieces of evidence, namely the statements of 2 witnesses and a post-mortem examination, then the most likely thing is to reduce the evidence, namely witness testimony, so that the witness who has been questioned must withdraw the statement and carry out a special case title to stop the case to determine SP3. The role of Bhabinkamtibmas in restorative justice is as a mediator or facilitator. Bhabinkamtibmas acts as a mediator in solving problems to reduce larger conflicts. Before holding the meeting, Bhabinkamtibmas first accommodated the aspirations of perpetrators and victims who did not want their cases to be processed legally. Bhabinkamtibmas then, together with community leaders, studied the habits of the perpetrators and saw whether this incident could still be repaired. If it can still be repaired, the parties are brought together and followed by deliberations to reach a consensus. Related to the causes of mistreatment of husbands against wives starting from the issue of biological needs, infidelity and economic problems. The positive effects of carrying out mediation for mild abuse by a husband against his wife are Improved husband's behaviour; The creation of household harmony; Re-communication of both sides; Providing a sense of justice to both parties; and settlement of legal issues more quickly and cheaply.

Published: March 2024

The article analyzes various aspects of the academic integrity problem facing higher education students. An overview of the main state documents on the specified problem has been made: laws, codes, regulations, letters, methodological recommendations, etc. The points of view regarding the relevance and essence of the problem are based on the publications of domestic and foreign scientists. Attending online webinars and lectures on the sought-after problem on the Coursera and Prometheus platforms, familiarization with the scientific and practical conference programs, online courses on teaching academic integrity, surveying the teachers’ and students’ results on awareness of the issue of academic integrity lead to the conclusion about the relevance of the problem and the feasibility of its research. The study of scientific articles over the past five years allows to state that the problem of the academic integrity competence structure of higher education students remains relevant, but insufficiently researched, which has negative impact on the effectiveness of its formation. The concept of the academic integrity competence is clarified, and its structure based on the National Qualifications Framework (2020) is substantiated. We believe that the above-mentioned competence should consist of four sub-competencies; knowledge in academic integrity in the field of education, skills in academic integrity in the field of education, communication based on the principles of academic integrity in the field of education, responsibility and autonomy in compliance with academic integrity in the field of education. The structure of each of the subcompetencies, which consists of microcompetencies for a specific level of education and for each of the training courses, is defined according to the Academic Integrity Competency Resource Map (University of Waterloo, 2023). For example, sub-competency 1 “Knowledge in the field of academic integrity in education” covers 4 microcompetencies, the first of which is “Knowledge in the field of academic integrity in education” for undergraduate (first, second, third and fourth years), for master’s (first and second years), and postgraduate studies (first and second years). Subcompetencies two, three and four are similarly structured. The next step in the study of the mentioned problem is to specify the content of each of the microcompetencies.

Introduction. The contemporary national and international labour markets need professionally oriented young people who distinguish themselves with creativity, sociability, responsibility, and the ability for creative problem-solving. They should be capable of constructing their own personal educational (through lifelong self-learning) and professional trajectory. The higher education system cannot remain aloof from these processes. One possible solution is to organize the training process for students based on the tutor model. Purpose is to describe the author’s experience in using the technology of tutor support for prospective philologists in the context of studying professional subjects. Methods. Studying and analyzing scientific publications on the topic of the research, testing, interviews, conversation. Results. The author has analyzed and specified the main research concepts, namely, “tutor support,” “individual educational program,” “individual educational trajectory,” and “individual educational course.” The key characteristics of the tutor support technology have been discovered. The experience of implementing the tutor support technology in the professional training of prospective philologists, particularly in studying the “Interpreter Training Course,” is described. Conclusion. As a final point, tutor support in the educational process represents a form of subject-subject organization. The technology of tutor support involves students working with their own cognitive interests according to developed strategies and tactics. The obtained results are then discussed with the teacher-tutor. This approach allows students to independently determine the pace and level of the educational content study, and to choose the methods for processing the information and presenting the results of their project.

Published: March 2024

Introduction. The war that has raged in Ukraine for over a year and a half has profoundly affected our students at the Ferenc Rákóczi II Transcarpathian Hungarian College of Higher Education, both physically and mentally. It was hypothesized that the war had a negative impact on students’ learning; learning a foreign language was challenging due to numerous distracting factors. Consequently, students’ attitudes toward language learning were adversely affected. Purpose. The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of what students experienced during martial law, their overall feelings about language learning, how this challenging period influenced their attitudes toward language learning, and the specific challenges they encountered. To achieve this, a survey was designed. Methods. An anonymous online questionnaire was developed to gain insights into the research questions. It consisted of three blocks of Likert-scale statements. Students had to rate the extent to which these statements were true for them on a scale from 1 to 5, where 1 meant ‘not at all true,’ and 5 meant ‘totally true.’ In total, 194 questionnaires were completed. Results. The results have revealed intriguing findings. A significant majority of students (75%) expressed optimism, believing that wise decisions would soon be made to end the war as soon as possible. Additionally, students expressed high levels of satisfaction with the Google Classrooms assigned to every discipline at the college (77%) since they greatly facilitated the monitoring of their studies. Conclusion. Students highlighted their appreciation for the opportunity to have offline classes despite the challenging circumstances. They emphasized that language learning was significantly more effective when there was direct contact with teachers and fellow students (79%).

Published: March 2024

The study of Natural Language Processing has been revolutionized by word embedding, enabling advanced language models to understand and generate human-like text. In this research article, we delve deep into the world of word embedding, aiming to provide a comprehensive exploration of its underlying principles, methodologies, and applications. One important factor that affects many multilingual language processing activities is the word translation or incorporation of bilingual dictionaries. We used bilingual dictionaries or parallel data for translation from one language to another. For this research work, this problem is addressed, and also generating the best cross-lingual word embedding for the different language pairs. So, we are using an aligned document sentence-aligned corpus, or any bilingual dictionary for this research analysis. For the most frequent word, we are assuming that there is an intra-lingual similarity distribution, and both the source and the target corpora have a comparable distribution graph. Additionally, these embeddings are isometric. These cross-lingual word embeddings are used for cross-lingual transfer learning and unsupervised neural machine translation. This research aims to improve the accuracy and efficiency of word translation between different language pairs by employing different retrieval techniques. The study analyzes the effectiveness of these techniques on different language pairs, including English-Hindi, English-Punjabi, English-Gujarati, English-Bengali, and English-Marathi. The research is expected to contribute significantly to the field of language translation by introducing innovative methods and other applications.

Authors: Suryaman Restu A
Published: March 2024

This research aims to identify the magnitude of the economic impact caused by the existence of small industrial centers by taking a case study of the Sukaregang leather tanning industrial center. The method used in this research is cost and benefit analysis to obtain a valuation value for the externalities that arise. This research was conducted qualitatively by collecting data through interviews, observation and expert judgment. The research results found that the positive economic impact resulting from the activities of the Sukaregang leather tanning industrial center was in the form of employment, growth of the leather craft industry, creation of a supporting tourism subsector and improvement in community welfare. Meanwhile, the negative economic impacts caused are environmental pollution, disruption of the quality of public health and disruption of clean water sources. The valuation of the positive economic impact generated is estimated at IDR 68,516,318,340 per year, while the valuation of the negative economic impact is estimated at IDR 65,701,500,000 per year. The research found that the positive economic impact is estimated to be greater than the negative economic impact with a gap that is not too large, so it is a recommendation for the government and business actors to pay attention to green economic aspects in the industrial sector so that economic activities and regional development can run sustainably.
