Published: July 2024

Background and objective: After the end of the COVID-19 pandemic in China in 2023, there has been an increasing number of clinical nurses resigning, which has greatly impacted clinical work. The objective of this study was to understand the reasons for the resignation of clinical nurses in a tertiary Grade-A hospital in Beijing.Methods: This study was completed in two stages. In the first stage, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 11 nurses who submitted resignation applications between August 2022 and August 2023 at a tertiary Grade-A hospital in Beijing. The themes identified were analyzed and refined using NVivo 12.0 software. The second stage involved a convenience sampling method for conducting a questionnaire survey on the resignation intentions of 220 clinical nurses in the hospital from September to October 2023.Results: The results of the first stage research show that the reasons for nurses' resignation can be summarized into four themes: deteriorating team collaboration atmosphere, heavy workload, conflicting family roles, and significant fatigue. The results of the second stage of the research indicated that out of 220 clinical nurses surveyed, 12 nurses reported plans to resign in the upcoming year. And we found that “Do You Have Intention to Resign within One Year” Yes vs No  were statistically different  in terms of commuting time (p = .048), work intensity (p = .049), physical health status (p = .001), reasonableness of work input and income (p = .002), promotion opportunities (p = .046), reward and punishment system (p = .001), and humanistic care (p = .001), and hospital nursing management methods (p = .001).Conclusions: The poor rationality of work input and income, deteriorating team collaboration atmosphere, and heavy workload may be the main reasons for nurses resigning. Nursing managers need to enhance nurses' salaries and benefits, strengthen hospital humanistic care, create a harmonious team work atmosphere, and emphasize the professional development of nursing talent to ensure the stability of the nursing team, especially during times of epidemic outbreaks.

Published: July 2024

This study aimed to investigate the diversity of benthic macroinvertebrates in the Byeonsanbando National Park. A total of 94 species belonging to 59 families, 18 orders, and six classes in four phyla were identified during the survey period (March- September, 2023). The taxa richness at the 17 sampling sites ranged from 16 to 35 with an average of 26.1 (±5.3). The taxa richness of the low stream-order sites was relatively lower than that of the higher stream-order sites. The overall benthic macroinvertebrate communities were characterized by moderate competitiveness and low stability based on the Shannon diversity index. This indicates that several sites adjacent to villages and farmlands were influenced by artificial disturbances, such as stream maintenance projects and monotonous microhabitat conditions. The β-diversity value was 0.509 with the highest local contribution to Beta diversity (LCBD) value at BS03 (0.135). LCBD can be a useful parameter for species conservation such as Libellula angelina (Class II endangered wildlife) and Luciola (Luciola) lateralis (biological resources subject to the approval of outbound transfer) inhabiting Byeonsanbando National Park. Additionally, the LCBD is suitable for constructing strategies for habitat preservation, particularly in regions of national parks with high conservation values.

Published: July 2024

For junior high school students, reading play an indispensable part in the English learning. Reading can enlarge students’ vocabulary and cultivate students’ learning ability. English Reading occupies a large proportion in the entrance examination. The English Curriculum Standards emphases that English teaching should be oriented to all students. Therefore, the teachers attach great importance to the teaching of English Reading. However, some junior high schools ignore the basic differences of students' English reading and take on a traditional teaching model in English reading class, which cannot meet the needs of each student. And then may even lead to the decline of some students' English reading learning autonomy, and the students will gradually lose confidence and enthusiasm. As a result, the teachers are supposed to seek a teaching method that can take students’ differences into consideration. Under the stratified teaching approach, students are divided into different levels based on their learning competence and learning potentials. Then teachers set appropriate teaching objectives, questions, tasks and after-school homework depending on learning abilities of students at different levels. The author attempts to research the effects of stratified teaching on students’ reading interest and reading performance based on the three theoretical foundations. This study will use logical analysis and literature to summarize and analyze. Teaching in junior high school, including foreign and domestic research, and puts forward some suggestions for improving English Reading Teaching in junior middle school. According to the research results, the application of stratified teaching approach to English reading teaching is very significant in junior high school. It is mainly reflected in improving students’ reading ability and interest in reading. Therefore, teachers need to improve their teaching methods in order to improve the reading literacy of junior high school students. Hope it can be helpful for the future teaching work.
Express Barcode Image Extraction based on Machine Vision
Authors: Han Zijian
Published: July 2024

Due to creases, blurring, scratches, and reflections on the surface of express delivery labels, it is not possible to quickly extract the barcodes, leading to the accumulation of packages and resulting in losses. This paper optimizes the images by using image restoration with generative adversarial networks (GANs) and adaptive adjustment enhancement algorithms. Secondly, after initially locating the barcode section using color and shape features, three major segmentation methods are employed to separate it out. Furthermore, this paper introduces a feature extraction method based on machine vision, which combines image processing techniques and machine learning algorithms. This method effectively extracts the features of express delivery barcodes and outperforms traditional methods.

Authors: Zhou Lanqiao
Published: July 2024

The English Curriculum Standards for General High School (2017) has made clear that the specific goal of general high school English curriculum is to "cultivate and develop the core qualities of subjects such as language ability, cultural awareness, thinking quality and learning ability that students should have after receiving high school English education." With the deepening of middle school English curriculum reform, high school English teaching faces new opportunities and challenges. Flipped classroom is a new teaching model, which realigns the inside and outside time of the classroom, reverses the order of teaching and learning, and transfers the decision of learning from teachers to students.In flipped classroom teaching model, students watch teaching videos before class, analyze learning content according to their own understanding and take notes. Back in class, through face-to-face communication and discussion between teachers, students and students as well as group cooperation, problems existed when watching videos before class were solved and related homework tasks were completed. This way of teaching before learning makes students become the main body of learning, focusing on the cultivation of students' autonomous learning ability and cooperative learning ability.

On the Implementation of “Literature Circles” Teaching Model in English Reading Teaching
Authors: Wen Jinxin
Published: July 2024

Reading teaching is highly valued among the five major skills teaching, but traditional reading teaching still has some problems. At the same time, General Senior High School Curriculum Standards have put forward higher requirements for high school English reading teaching, requiring "high school English curriculum should emphasize the further development of students' comprehensive language proficiency, and focus on improving their ability to obtain information, process information, analyze problems, and solve problems in English; with special emphasis on improving students' ability to think and express themselves in English." Since the new curriculum reform advocates a student-centered teaching model, focusing on cultivating students' thinking abilities and optimizing their thinking qualities, the “Literature Circles” model has gradually become popular in middle school English classroom teaching. This model focuses on reading as the core, and through independent research and collaborative exploration, enables students to more effectively integrate their English language abilities. While improving English knowledge and skills, students' critical thinking abilities have also been trained and strengthened. The cultivation of critical thinking not only enhances students' ability to analyze and solve problems, but also provides an important foundation for students to distinguish right from wrong, correct erroneous knowledge, and innovate. Therefore, this article summarizes the current problems in English reading teaching, the concept, theoretical basis, advantages, development trends, and implementation processes and suggestions of “Literature Circles” teaching model, in order to bring new inspiration and ideas to English reading teaching.

The budget realization rate 2020 stood at 92.75%, indicating a high-efficiency level in budget utilization despite challenges encountered in buying items and implementing programs. The budget realization for 2021 witnessed a notable increase to 95.78% owing to enhancements in the planning and monitoring system and enhanced interdepartmental coordination.
Nevertheless, the percentage of realization is expected to experience a minor decline to 95.08% in 2022 due to technical issues in procurement and alterations in policy. 2023, there was a further decline, with a budget realization rate of 92.59%. This fall was primarily due to economic instability and changes in the organizational structure.
Variance analysis reveals that specific spending categories routinely exhibit discrepancies between the intended budget and its implementation, including the amount allocated for training and human resource development. The variation results from shifts in priorities, limitations in time, and challenges encountered during the program's implementation. Managerial and technical capacity in financial management is a factor that affects variation. Despite implementing financial management training, there is still room for improvement. The findings of this study emphasize the necessity for enhancements in the budget planning procedure that are characterized by greater participation, stricter budget monitoring, higher utilization of information technology, and enhanced managerial and technical proficiency.
This study offers a thorough analysis of the fluctuations in budget implementation and the factors that impact it, along with suggestions for enhancing the efficiency and efficacy of budget utilization at the Bandung Class II Port Health Office. By gaining a more profound comprehension of budget realization variances, these agencies can develop more efficient techniques to oversee their budgets, enhance accountability and transparency, and deliver superior public services. This research aims to serve as assessment and reference material for relevant agencies, assisting in enhancing budget management and significantly contributing to public health at ports.

Smartphones have become a ubiquitous element of modern life, especially among the young. This study characterizes and differentiates the use of smartphones among university students according to their gender. A total of 1,089 students from a Mexican public university participated. A questionnaire was administered that assessed the history of smartphone use, current use in various situations, and indicators of excessive use. Mann-Whitney and Chi-square tests were performed and the Bayes factor was calculated. Results showed that women spend more time using their phones for messaging and social networking. Women also experience more visual problems and musculoskeletal discomfort associated with excessive phone use. Conversely, men more frequently use their phones in the bathroom and while driving. The results suggest the need for interventions and awareness campaigns to promote healthy smartphone habits.
La condición narrativa del ser humano como herramienta en la lucha contra la desinformación
Authors: Rico Frías Julia
Published: July 2024

La multiplicidad de informaciones que reciben los seres humanos en la actualidad a través de las diversas fuentes existentes puede contribuir a crear incertidumbre a la hora de discernir dónde está la verdad. En los últimos años, la noción de posverdad, que se creó para definir esta situación, ha sufrido una perversión que está provocando el desgaste del término. Esta investigación pretende realizar un acercamiento crítico al concepto de posverdad, tal como se entiende habitualmente, para señalar los usos que pueden resultar reaccionarios e inmovilizantes, en vez de fomentar nuestra capacidad examinadora a través de la idea de la condición narrativa del ser humano, que tiene la capacidad para devolver al concepto su potencialidad crítica. Nos proponemos despejar la confusión que se ha organizado en torno a la idea de posverdad para encaminarla hacia una vía mucho más próspera.
Trabajador/a Engranaje: Ética de lo Público en la Managerialización de Políticas de Infancia en Chile
Authors: Núñez-Parra Lorena , Barrera Lagos Alba , Ribeiro Josiane , Sisto Vicente , Morales Karol , Mok Camila , García-Meneses Javiera
Published: July 2024

La ejecución de la política pública de infancia en Chile encuentra sus directrices en el modelo de la Nueva Gestión Pública. Los sistemas de gestión y control atraviesan el trabajo de intervención a la infancia vulnerada, ocasionando alta intensificación y tensión en la ética del trabajo. En este artículo analizamos discursivamente cómo las/os trabajadoras/es construyen el sentido del trabajo público en infancia, mostrando las tensiones que emergen en su relación con la política y sus instrumentos. Los resultados, con base en 16 entrevistas, evidenciaron tres repertorios dominantes: entre el trabajador managerializado y el trabajador frustrado; el trabajador superhéroe; y lo colectivo como un refugio y sustentación del engranaje managerial. Para disputar la ética de lo público, las/os participantes relevan la urgencia de reorientar las políticas en infancia por sobre indicadores, metas y estándares de desempeño, validando los sistemas de trabajo situado y colaborativo como una voz organizada que no puede estar ausente en su diseño.
La Red Trashumante
Authors: Hennig Bruno
Published: July 2024

Este libro emerge a partir del interrogante sobre las relaciones posibles entre la educación popular y la salud colectiva. Para ello, toma como anclaje las experiencias de la Red Trashumante, una organización que lleva adelante prácticas de educación popular en Argentina. El objetivo que guía esta obra es el de analizar la educación popular y la salud colectiva como proyectos contrahegemónicos.

El trabajo llevado a cabo consiste en un diseño exploratorio analítico enmarcado en un abordaje metodológico cualitativo. Se basa principalmente en la etnografía crítica, en la observación participante en los talleres de educación popular en la Red Trashumante y en el estudio del material documental y bibliográfico. En el libro, se trata de desplegar la dimensión teórica de lo que se practica en los espacios de formación de la organización, a fin de trabajar la hipótesis según la cual entre salud colectiva y educación popular hay una afinidad conceptual de fondo.
