Spinoza's Really Confused Ideas
Authors: Noorloos Ruben
Published: December 2024

Spinoza’s epistemology aims at the development of “adequate” and the removal of “confused” ideas. Spinoza’s theory of confusion raises many questions, however. It has often been thought that the confusion of an idea is mind-relative, such that an idea might be confused in my mind but adequate in God’s. In this paper I argue that confusion cannot be mind-relative, because an idea’s confusion is determined by what it represents and for Spinoza, ideas are individuated by their representational content. Instead, I propose that although it is possible to consider one and the same idea both adequately and confusedly, what such considerings pick up on are mind-independent features of ideas.
ХІРУРГІЧНЕ ЛІКУВАННЯ ЗАХВОРЮВАНЬ ЩИТОПОДІБНОЇ ЗАЛОЗИ, УСКЛАДНЕНИХ КОМПРЕСІЙНИМ СИНДРОМОМ ТРАХЕЇ

Published: December 2024

Актуальність теми. Захворювання щитоподібної залози, ускладнені компресійним синдромом трахеї. є однією з найбільш тяжких патологій торакальної хірургії. Єдиним способом врятувати пацієнта від задухи є оперативне лікування, що виконано невідкладно або терміново.
Метою дослідження є аналіз результатів невідкладного та термінового хірургічного лікування захворювань щитоподібної залози, ускладнених компресійним синдромом трахеї.
Матеріали та методи. До дослідження включено 167 пацієнтів, які надійшли до клініки ДУ «Інститут загальної та невідкладної хірургії ім. В. Т. Зайцева НАМН України» у екстреному порядку та оперовані за невідкладними та терміновими показаннями з приводу компресійного синдрому трахеї. Усі хворі поділені на 2 групи, залежно від термінів виконання екстрених хірургічних утручань: I група хворих це ті, яким виконані хірургічні втручання за невідкладними показаннями протягом першої доби. Їх було 52 (31,1%); ІІ група пацієнтів – це 115 (68,9%) оперованих за терміновими показаннями протягом другої та третьої доби з моменту надходження. Для порівняння середніх абсолютних значень використовувався критерій (t) Стьюдента. Для порівняльного аналізу відносних показників застосовувався критерій χ². Довірчі інтервали розраховані за допомогою методу Фішера.
Результати. Проведено аналіз видів, обсягу та результатів невідкладних та термінових хірургічних оперативних утручань з приводу компресійного синдрому. Виявлено, що у хворих на диференційовані форми раку щитоподібної залози групи за терміновими показаннями частіше виконувались радикальні операції, ніж пацієнтам групи за невідкладними показаннями. За невідкладних хірургічних утручань радикальні операції виконані у 8 (22,9%) випадках. У групі пацієнтів, які перенесли термінові втручання, цей показник у 2 рази вищий – 23 (52,3%) пацієнтів (p≤0,05). Однак ранні післяопераційні ускладнення спостерігалися у 4 рази частіше в групі з невідкладними показаннями (p≤0,05).
Висновки. Хірургічне лікування хворих на тяжкі розлади дихання при компресійному синдромі має бути спрямоване, перш за все, на усунення причини шляхом максимально повного видалення утворення щитоподібної залози. Для визначення оптимального обсягу оперативного втручання на доопераційному етапі доцільно проводити імуноцитохімічне дослідження з визначенням ступеня проліферації тканини щитоподібної залози. Для визначення термінів операції у хворих на важкі розлади дихання при захворюваннях щитоподібної залози необхідно виконати спірографію, що дозволить об'єктивно оцінити можливість передопераційної підготовки та покращити результати хірургічного лікування. Виконання термінових утручань збільшує можливість радикальних хірургічних утручань та зменшує частоту післяопераційних ускладнень з 21,2% до 5,2%.

Published: December 2024

The article describes and analyzes the role of ghrelin in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) infected with Helicobacter pylori (HP).
The aim – to assess the factors affecting serum ghrelin levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus depending on Helicobacter pylori infection.
Materials and methods. 70 patients with non-insulin-dependent T2DM, according to the recommendations of the American Diabetes Association, aged 51 to 57 years, were included in the study. All patients underwent a determination of the level of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), serum ghrelin (GHR), a fecal test for the determination of Helicobacter pylori antigen (HP) and anti-HP antibodies. Depending on the presence of HP in patients, they are divided into two groups: group I – HP-positive patients with T2DM (n=50) and group II – HP-negative patients with T2DM (n=20). The control group consisted of 20 practically healthy people, aged from 49 to 56 years.
Research results. The obtained results indicate that patients with T2DM and HP+ have a significantly higher level of the main parameters of carbohydrate metabolism (fasting blood glucose, HbA1c, HOMA index of insulin resistance (I-HOMA)), and GHR level is significantly lower in group 1 (T2DM, HP+) compared to group 2 (T2DM, HP-). The results of the regression analysis established that with a decrease in the level of anti-HP IgG (-0.919756) by 1 unit, serum ghrelin will increase by 0.524530 (р=0.0000001), with a decrease in the level of fasting blood glucose (-4.67237) by 1 unit, GHR will increase by 0.505678 (p=0.0000001), with a decrease in the level of glycosylated hemoglobin (-0.650397) by 1 unit, GHR will increase by 0.127541 (p=0.002). With a decrease in the I-HOMA (-2.71500) by 1 unit in group 2, GHR will increase by 0.766778 (р=0.02), with a decrease in the level of I-HOMA (-3.74895) by 1 unit in group 1, GHR will increase by 0.286003 (p=0.0000001). A correlation was also established between fasting blood glucose and anti-HP IgG (r=0.96875; p=0.01); between the levels of insulin resistance and anti-HP IgG (r=0.95882; p=0.01).
Conclusions. The level of serum ghrelin is significantly lower in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus compared to individuals without diabetes and is significantly dependent on the main indicators of carbohydrate metabolism. Infection with Helicobacter pylori leads to a decrease in the level of ghrelin in blood serum and an increase in insulin resistance and gradual decompensation of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
«ПРОПУЩЕНИЙ» ТА ЗАНЕДБАНИЙ ПАПІЛЯРНИЙ РАК ЩИТОПОДІБНОЇ ЗАЛОЗИ: КЛІНІЧНИЙ ВИПАДОК
Authors: Шептуха Сергій , Губар Олександр
Published: December 2024

Описано клінічний випадок «пропущеного» та занедбаного випадку папілярного раку щитоподібної залози у пацієнтки 1992 року народження. За даними анамнезу пацієнтка спостерігається більше 10 років (з 2013 року) у лікарів різних спеціальностей (сімейний лікар, ендокринолог, онколог, лікар УЗД, акушер-гінеколог, тощо), але лише у 2023 році за результатами УЗД виникла підозра на наявність папілярного раку щитоподібної залози з метастазами в лімфовузли шиї. За результатами пункції діагноз був підтверджений. Виконане довготривале оперативне втручання та проведена в подальшому радіойодтерапія призвели до повного виліковування пацієнтки. Особливістю випадку є тривалість спостереження та відсутність онконастороженості лікарів різних спеціальностей, що і призвело до занедбаності випадку. Тому, за тривалої наявності збільшених лімфовузлів шиї необхідно направляти пацієнтів до медичних закладів, що спеціалізуються на захворюваннях щитоподібної залози чи органів шиї, задля встановлення точного діагнозу.

Skeletal Muscle Mass Loss and Physical Function in Young to Middle-Aged Adult Patients With Diabetes: Cross-Sectional Observational Study
Authors: Naruse Aki , Yamada Yuka , Miyamoto Takeshi
Published: December 2024

Background

Recently, it has been reported that older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have lower skeletal muscle mass than healthy individuals. Although skeletal muscle mass in older adults with diabetes is occasionally reported, similar reports on young to middle-aged adults are limited.

Objective

This study aims to assess the prevalence of skeletal muscle loss in young to middle-aged adults with diabetes, examine the relationship between skeletal muscle loss and physical function in these patients, and examine whether there are differences in these characteristics between men and women.

Methods

This cross-sectional, observational study included patients younger than 65 years with T2DM who were admitted to our hospital between 2014 and 2022 for educational admission for glycemic control and requested rehabilitation by the Department of Metabolic Medicine. The control group consisted of patients who received rehabilitation during their hospitalization at our hospital and did not have diabetes. The main parameters included skeletal muscle mass, muscle strength, physical function, and activities of daily living.

Results

The prevalence of skeletal muscle mass loss in this study was 18.2% (10/55) in men and 7.7% (4/52) in women. The skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) was 7.7 (SD 0.8) and 8.4 (SD 0.5) for men in the T2DM and control groups, respectively, and 7.0 (SD 0.9) and 6.8 (SD 0.7) for women in the T2DM and control groups, respectively. Therefore, compared with the nondiabetes group, a significant difference was observed in men but not in women (men: P<.001, women: P=.35). Nonetheless, the diabetes group exhibited significantly lower physical functions, such as a walking speed of 1.3 (SD 0.2) m/s and 1.2 (SD 0.43) m/s for men and women in the T2DM group and 1.6 (SD 0.2) m/s and 1.5 (SD 0.1) m/s for men and women in the control group, respectively (men: P<.001, women: P<.001). One-leg standing time was measured as 30.7 (SD 26.9) seconds and 29.4 (SD 25.5) seconds for men and women in the T2DM group, compared with 100.5 (SD 30.6) seconds and 82.5 (SD 39.8) seconds for men and women in the control group, respectively, with the T2DM group’s times being significantly lower (men: P<.001, women: P<.001). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that SMI was significantly associated with age, BMI, and peripheral neuropathy (all P≤.002). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that BMI exhibited the strongest association (odds ratio 1.15, 95% CI 1.07-1.23; P<.001), and peripheral neuropathy was also significantly associated with SMI (P=.009).

Conclusions

Patients with diabetes, even those who are not older adults, face an elevated rate of skeletal muscle mass loss, muscle weakness, and a decline in physical function; moreover, they are susceptible to dynapenia and presarcopenia. Therefore, early intervention focusing on muscle evaluation and exercise is crucial.

Automatic Waste Segregation System
Authors: S Dr. Bama
Published: December 2024

The "Automatic Waste Segregation System" is an automated solution for sorting mixed waste into wet, plastic, metal,
and dry waste categories. It utilizes an L-shaped conveyor belt with a vertical section for initial waste collection and a horizontal
section for further sorting. A rain sensor on the vertical belt detects wet waste, reversing the conveyor direction to direct it to a
designated bin. The belt then resumes its normal direction to process the remaining waste. On the horizontal section, a capacitive
sensor detects plastic waste, which is swiped into a bin using a servo motor arm. A magnet beneath the belt captures metal items,
which are moved downward along the conveyor. Once the metal passes the demagnetizing point, it is released into a designated
bin. Any remaining dry waste is then collected in the general waste bin. The vertical-horizontal L-shaped conveyor design
ensures effective sorting of all types of waste, making this system a practical and scalable solution for waste segregation needs.
The system uses dual motor shafts, a relay, and a speed controller for efficient waste segregation, minimizing manual
intervention and enhancing recycling processes.
FECHAMENTO DE COMUNICAÇÃO BUCOSSINUSAL COM RETALHO DE CORPO ADIPOSO DE BOCHECHA: RELATO DE CASO CLÍNICO
Authors: Macêdo da Cruz Kettelyn , Barbosa Luandson Nunes dos Santos
Published: December 2024

A comunicação bucossinusal (CBS) é uma complicação relativamente frequente na prática odontológica que ocorre em procedimentos cirúrgicos, principalmente, exodontias dos molares superiores. O diagnóstico dessa comunicação é feito através de exames clínicos intraorais, empregando a manobra de Valsava, e para a confirmação do diagnóstico, utiliza-se exame radiográfico. A literatura cita inúmeros métodos de tratamento, entretanto não evidenciam a técnica específica para cada caso, entre esses métodos existe o retalho com o corpo adiposo da bochecha, que apresenta alto índice de sucesso no fechamento das CBS. Quando a CBS é fechada incorretamente ou de forma tardia o paciente fica propício a desenvolver quadros de sinusite crônica ou aguda, além de fístulas bucossinusais. Portanto, deve-se identificar e tratar essa comunicação de imediato para evitar o desenvolvimento de outras complicações. O objetivo do presente trabalho é apresentar um caso clínico de um paciente com comunicação bucossinusal atendido na clínica odontológica da Unidade de Ensino Superior de Feira de Santana (UNEF), com a finalidade de demostrar a técnica cirúrgica utilizando a rotação do corpo adiposo da bochecha (Bola de Bichat).

O NOSSO MUNDO PODE SER DIFERENTE: LEMBRANDO CARLOS RODRIGUES BRANDÃO
Authors: Streck Danilo R.
Published: December 2024

Ao pensar sobre como iniciar a tarefa de escrever algo sobre Carlos Rodrigues Brandão que faça sentido para quem o conheceu e eventualmente apresentá-lo a quem não teve esse privilégio, veio-me à mente um conto de Gabriel García Márquez que Rubem Alves, um grande amigo de Carlos, gostava de contar. Trata-se do conto “O afogado mais bonito do mundo”, que tem mais ou menos o seguinte enredo: Na praia de um pequeno povoado no litoral caribenho, aparece o corpo de um homem. Quem o vê primeiro são as crianças, os homens levam o corpo inerte para dentro de casa e são as mulheres que cuidam dele e o preparam para o velório. Deparam-se, então, com uma figura diferente daquelas que são comuns no povoado. É um homem maior, mais bonito, com vestígios de ter vindo de lugares longínquos e desconhecidos. Começam então a tecer histórias que acabam mudando a vida do povoado. Os moradores sabiam, como diz o autor, que desde então tudo seria diferente no povoado.

Authors: Romero Daniel
Published: December 2024

Se pudéssemos escutar os pensamentos de Marx em tempo real, o que ouviríamos? Assim como qualquer pessoa, Marx seguramente pensava em voz alta quando estava imerso em suas pesquisas. Se estivéssemos ao seu lado, o que teríamos a oportunidade de escutar deste Marx sem filtros? Quais ideias teriam surgido, mas abandonadas? Quais teriam sido apenas delineadas e guardadas para mais tarde e, finalmente, quais teriam criado raízes e se tornado, posteriormente, elementos chaves de seu pensamento?
O texto ora publicado pela Revista Trabalho Necessário é o mais próximo que podemos chegar de uma experiência como esta. Em  Fragmentos sobre as Máquinas (ver anexo), Marx está conversando consigo mesmo, em altíssima voz, levantando uma série de hipóteses, botando-as no papel para organizar seus próprios pensamentos e avaliar até onde elas podem ir.
PODE A ESCOLA ENSINAR A GOSTAR DOS CLÁSSICOS? ENSINO DE LITERATURA E ONTOLOGIA MATERIALISTA
Authors: Nardy João Pedro
Published: December 2024

Problematizando a concepção de gosto como inexplicável e intangível, apresenta-se a possibilidade de o prazer pela leitura dos clássicos ser moldada pelo trabalho docente. Colocando a oposição entre “sabor” e “saber” como produto da dinâmica de alienação, aposta-se na dimensão prazerosa dos clássicos realistas, porque vinculados à vida humana concreta. Tais reflexões foram realizadas à luz da ontologia materialista de Marx e da estética de György Lukács, e revelaram-se contraditórias para com os postulados não-diretivos do “Aprender a aprender”, típico do neoliberalismo.

Published: December 2024

Este artigo aborda a gestão da educação básica apresentada no Plano Nacional de Educação – PNE 2014-2024 e na discussão do Novo Plano Nacional de Educação, buscando apreender se a meta 19 e suas estratégias têm sido implementadas; como essa gestão é abarcada no Documento Final da Conae 2024; quais são seus limites, tensões e proposições no contexto educacional desde 2014. A gestão democrática é princípio garantido na Constituição Federal, mas cumprido de forma parcial, pois apenas as estratégias vinculadas aos colegiados extraescolares foram universalizadas. A ausência dessa efetivação, em conjunto com iniciativas dos governos Temer e Bolsonaro – conservadoras, antidemocráticas, de austeridade, com resquícios autoritários e neoliberais – criam limites e impasses, inclusive para a constituição do Novo Plano Nacional de Educação, que precisará prever novamente metas e estratégias, por conta de sua execução parcial até então.

Este é um relato de experiência de rodas de conversa sobre questões de gênero realizadas em uma universidade pública do Rio de Janeiro, na Baixada Fluminense (2023). A pesquisa analisa como o conservadorismo da sociedade brasileira interfere nas escolas quanto às questões de diversidade de gênero; é de natureza qualitativa, baseia-se nas transcrições das atividades, utilizando análise do conteúdo temático após leituras exploratórias do corpus da pesquisa. Seus eixos temáticos são: preconceito, questões de gênero na escola, dificuldades de professores/as e relação família-escola. Segundo docentes, as crianças têm trazido mais precocemente questões de gênero para a sala de aula, o que tem gerado tensões entre famílias e escolas. Em muitos casos, familiares e responsáveis esperam que docentes adotem postura conservadora, da heteronormatividade ou que se abstenham de abordar o tema, fazendo com que alguns/umas professores/as hesitem em fazê-lo por conta de tensões e pressões.
Thomas Pynchon’s Inherent Vice as a Menippean Satire
Authors:   University of Priština in Kosovska Mitrovica, Šoškić Radoje V.
Published: December 2024

This paper explores Thomas Pynchon’s novel Inherent Vice through the lens of Menippean satire, elucidating in particular its intricate interplay of capitalism, counterculture, and spatial dynamics. Drawing upon Mikhail Bakhtin’s theory of Menippean satire, which highlights the carnivalesque inversion of societal norms and the critique of established power structures, the analysis delves into the manifold manipulations of human and spatial identities within the context of consumer culture. Examining the novel’s portrayal of spatial conflicts, akin to Pynchon’s earlier work V., the paper contends that the streets and locales in Inherent Vice serve as metonymic battlegrounds, emblematic of broader social struggles between hegemonic powers and countercultural resistance. Through a juxtaposition of the forces of capitalism, represented by governmental and corporate entities, and the carnivalistic ethos of the hippie counterculture, the narrative underscores the tensions inherent in the shaping of American space and identity in the early 1970s. Central to the analysis is the characterization of Gordita Beach, a fictitious Californian town, as a dialectical space where divergent social forces converge and clash. Here, the imposition of capitalist ideals by figures like Mickey Wolfmann intersects with the countercultural resistance, creating a liminal terrain where socio-economic boundaries blur and alternate identities proliferate.
Space as the ‘Limit’ of the Fantastic in Literature: the Impossibility of Overcoming the Possible
Authors:   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Nikolaev Dmitry D.
Published: December 2024

The article examines the theoretical problem, the “limit” of the fantastic in literature using the example of the works of American writers Ray Cummings, Miles J. Breuer, A.J. Deutsch, Martin Gardner, Robert Heinlein. The writer cannot create in the text the image of a fantastic space as a phenomenon with new characteristics that are impossible in reality. The image created in the author's imagination is not transmitted to readers using the means of representation available in literature, and the main reason for this is the stability of our spatial perception based on almost limitless possibilities of the non-fantastic space in which we exist. In Ray Cummings' novel Into the Fourth Dimension (1927), the principle of depicting a “different” space in literature is formulated: “We must cling to the realities of our world. There are no other words — no other conceptions — with which we can think these unthought things”. As a result, the “other” world is either described in the text in parameters of the world familiar to readers, as is stated by Cummings, or it is not depicted at all, even being an important element for the plot, as, for example, in fantastic stories on the topic of topology. The impossibility to depict such a “different” world does not exclude the fixation on its essence, but the pictorial space in literature remains stable. Without a visual “hint”, the reader’s consciousness cannot follow beyond the spatially possible model, but in visual arts this barrier existing in literature is removed.
Degrowth’s Implications for Art, Craft, and Design Education in the Global North
Authors: Hall Emese
Published: December 2024

Irresponsible production and consumption are the root causes of the Earth Crisis, and the Global North is primarily at fault. As a matter of urgency, the Global North must accept responsibility for the injustices caused and make reparations. I have argued elsewhere that art, craft, and design education is uniquely placed to address Earth Crisis issues, because it powerfully combines both effective and affective modes of communication. Here, as a degrowth advocate, I will consider how degrowth thinking can inform art, craft, and design education in the Global North, giving special attention to the theme of (ir)responsible production and consumption.

This paper attempts to bring together a series of ideas/concepts from the work of Isabelle Stengers, Didier Debaise, Jean-Francois Lyotard, Anna Tsing and others in order to apply them to the notion ‘after progress,’ which has some bearing on the theme of this special issue on degrowth. As Savransky and Lundy (2022) argue, ‘the notion of “progress” is arguably the defining idea of modernity’. Whilst this idea of progress has been the object of criticism, its prevalence is still pervasive. But what would living after progress or following a degrowth agenda look like, particularly within contexts of educational policy and practice? After progress perhaps another education is possible. The paper takes on board this suggestion, and rather than viewing education in schools and elsewhere in terms of its current concerns in the West with individual achievement, competition, and standards, we see it as promoting diversity, conviviality, working, thinking, agreeing and disagreeing in common.
Degrowth and Form: Reflections on Education’s Lateral Possibilities
Authors: Baldacchino John
Published: December 2024

In this paper, it is argued that degrowth cannot be discussed in vacuo. Rather, it must be read through its relationship with form. Form and the formative prompt us to engage with learning and growth. Like growth and degrowth, learning and unlearning leave us with more questions than answers. The linearity imposed on learning by a logic of growth needs to be contested. An effective, albeit lateral critique of the logic of growth in learning is found in the pedagogies of unlearning and indirectness, both of which suggest a particular focus on the contingencies of life, which, understood in their aporetic nature, reveal that which can only be embraced through the unforeseen. Discussing the work of Latouche, Unamuno, Rancière, Saeverot, and Torgersen amongst other, this paper concludes with a discussion of degrowth in Ivan Illich’s parable of the snail, and D’Arcy Thompson’s discussion of growth and form.
Model of sensitivity to the initial conditions of the equations of motion in the electric fieldn
Authors:   Lviv Polytechnic National University, Tchaban Vasyl
Published: December 2024

A numerical method for calculating ste¬ady periodic processes of nonlinear differential equations of motion in an electric field is proposed based on their integration under initial conditions that exclude transi¬ent reaction. The calculation of such initial conditions is based on Newton's iterative formula. At each iteration, together with the basic equations of motion, the corresponding equations of the first variation are integrated over the periodicity time interval, which represent a model of sensitivity to the initial conditions, In addi¬tion, the number of unknown variational equations has been reduced, which makes it possible to lower their or¬der, and, at the same time, the order of the monodromy matrix. All this contributes to the simplification of the relevant computational algorithms and computer programs. The method takes into account the finite rate of electric field propagation.
Neuro-symbolic models for ensuring cybersecurity in critical cyber-physical systems
Authors:   Kherson State University, Yevdokymov Serhii
Published: December 2024

This paper presents the results of a comprehensive study on the application of the neuro-symbolic approach for detecting and preventing cyber threats in railway systems, a critical component of cyber-physical infrastructures. The increasing complexity and integration of physical systems with digital technologies have made such infrastructures vulnerable to cyberattacks, where breaches can result in severe consequences, including system failures, financial losses, and threats to public safety and the environment. The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness of the neuro-symbolic approach, which combines artificial neural networks with symbolic algorithms, in detecting and mitigating cyber threats in dynamic environments. The methodology involved simulating various cyberattack scenarios on a test architecture for railway system security, followed by applying the neuro-symbolic model for threat detection and response. Results showed that the neuro-symbolic approach demonstrated high accuracy in detecting cyber threats and was particularly effective in adapting to new and unknown types of attacks. Compared to traditional methods, this approach significantly improved detection efficiency and response speed. The findings confirm that the neuro-symbolic approach enhances cybersecurity, particularly in critical infrastructures like railway systems, and contributes to more reliable protection of data related to passengers and transported goods. Further research will focus on optimizing the implementation of these algorithms and expanding

Published: December 2024

This article provides a theoretical analysis of two didactic methods: classical didactics and digital didactics. Classical didactics, as a branch of pedagogy, explores basic principles and teaching methods and emphasizes the role of the teacher in conveying given content and developing essential skills and competencies in students. In contrast, digital didactics is an emerging field that deals with the organization of educational processes in the context of the digital transformation of society. The primary goal is to craft learning experiences that leverage modern information technologies, emphasizing active, independent student engagement. The article highlights the key principles, pedagogical tools, and educational outcomes that differentiate classical from digital didactics. At the center of the article is an explicit description of the pedagogical tools of digital didactics. It contains verified examples of the implementation of digital didactics in the Russian education system. It is stated that digital didactics is a comprehensive approach to organizing the educational process. This approach encompasses personalized learning, broadening the academic context, gamification, online learning, the application of artificial intelligence, and the ongoing enhancement of the digital learning environment.

Статья представляет собой теоретический экспресс анализ двух дидактик: классической и цифровой. Классическая дидактика, как область педагогики, исследует основные принципы и методы обучения, с акцентом на передачу учителем готового содержания и формирование у обучающихся необходимых умений и компетенций. В противоположность этому, цифровая дидактика, как новое научное направление, исследует организацию образовательного процесса в эпоху цифровой трансформации общества. Ее ключевая цель – проектирование процесса обучения с использованием современных информационных технологий, с акцентом на активную, самостоятельную познавательную деятельность обучающихся. Выделяются основные принципы, педагогические инструменты и образовательные результаты, которые отличают классическую дидактику от цифровой. Приоритет отдается экспресс-описанию педагогического инструментария цифровой дидактики. Приводятся верифицированные примеры реализации идей цифровой дидактики в российской системе образования. Делается вывод о том, что цифровая дидактика представляет собой комплексный подход к организации образовательного процесса, который включает в себя индивидуализацию обучения, расширение образовательного контекста, геймификацию, онлайн-обучение, использование искусственного интеллекта и обновление цифровой образовательной среды.

Authors: Albashiri Ahmed Rashed
Published: December 2024

This research aims to elucidate the divergent perspectives of computer science professionals and general users on e-commerce system usability. By examining the Saudi Airlines reservation system as a case study, this study seeks to identify key disparities in user experience between these two groups. The research will contribute to a deeper understanding of how system design can be optimized to cater to a wider range of users. A user experience evaluation of the system was undertaken using the user experience questionnaire (UEQ) framework, focusing on the dimensions of attractiveness, perspicuity, efficiency, dependability, stimulation, and novelty. Findings indicate no significant disparity in user experience between regular and professional computer users when interacting with the Saudia Airlines reservation system. However, a notable trend emerged: a mean increase of 1.96 in perspicuity ratings and a mean decrease of 0.53 in novelty ratings across all user groups. The research findings offer a valuable resource for Saudia development teams in their pursuit of optimising the reservations website. Specifically, the results provide actionable insights for enhancing the system’s interface and overall user experience.
Driving Change in Corporate Mobility Management — Comprehensive Perspectives on Mobility Budgets for Employees
Authors: Schwehn Lea Heide , Heußler Tobias , Bruns André
Published: December 2024

Corporate Mobility Management (CMM) is a key part of the transformation towards sustainable mobility and has an impact on emissions and employee satisfaction. Mobility budgets (MBs), categorized as employee benefits, offer a unique solution for transforming employee mobility. This article summarizes the results of two studies and provides a comprehensive overview. Study I, a representative survey (n=994) in Germany, examines the differences between MB users (MBN) and non-users (NU). NU show longer commuting distances and a lower perception of sustainability, which underlines the transformative effect of MB. Socio-demographic nuances, including gender and socio-economic factors, further influence mobility choices. Study II focuses on three case studies presenting different MB implementations. Overall, our results underline the transformative potential of MBs regarding the change towards sustainability. Policy makers and companies should develop solutions for different socio-demographic groups, take gender preferences into account and consider the impact on commuting behavior. The presented holistic framework contributes to a more sustainable and satisfying mobility experience for workers and is in line with broader environmental goals.

Exploring Clinician Barriers and Enablers in Referring Patients to a Virtual Hospital for Acute Care
Authors: Kirkpatrick Emily
Published: December 2024

Background: Virtual hospitals offer a promising solution to alleviate pressures on traditional healthcare systems by providing acute care in patients' homes. Despite the implementation of a virtual hospital model in South Australia, referral rates remain below expectations.
Aim: To explore clinician attitudes, beliefs, barriers, and enablers influencing referrals to a virtual hospital for acute care.
Methods: A qualitative exploratory study was conducted using semi-structured interviews with nine clinicians who had experience referring patients to the virtual hospital. Data were analysed thematically using a grounded theory approach.
Results: Four key themes emerged: (1) Complexity of the healthcare ecosystem leading to duplication and navigation challenges; (2) Ambiguity in patient selection criteria causing uncertainty in referrals; (3) Higher social complexity and non-medical care needs acting as barriers; (4) Interoperability issues and the need for effective change management.
Conclusions: Addressing the identified barriers through refining referral pathways, clarifying eligibility criteria, enhancing support for patients with complex needs, and improving system interoperability could increase referral rates to the virtual hospital. Engaging clinicians in the co-design of virtual care models is essential for successful implementation.
