Investigating learners’ experiences and attitudes towards astronomy in the curriculum of Uganda: A case study of Kabale Municipality
Authors: Isaac Opio  , Isaac Habumugisha
Published: December 2023

Astronomy is the first natural science that is magnificently rich in concept. It is embedded in the various fields of modern 21st century; Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). Slightly before the onset of Covid-19 pandemic (February 2020) in Uganda, the government rolled out the new lower secondary education curriculum (LSC). The aim of LSC was to equip learners with an enhancement skills training as opposed to the old curriculum, which was designed on colonial system. Interestingly, concepts on astronomy for beginners were included in the New LSC, but do learners have any experience in the content and how interested are they towards it. That is why this study investigated the learners’ experience and attitudes towards Astronomy concepts. A total of 160 students from six secondary schools in Kabale Municipality (St. Marys’ College-Rushoroza, Ndorwa Secondary School, Trinity College, Kabale Brainstorm High School, Rock High School, and Kigezi College-Butobere) were randomly sampled. A questionnaire-with carefully chosen set of questions was administered. Majority of the learners (67%) were found to have heard basic knowledge on astronomy, with 33% not conversant with astronomical concepts when first introduced in class. 81% of them were highly interested in Astronomy. Additionally, learners stated that they heard about astronomy from various sources like T.V programs, YouTube videos, among others; so to develop learners’ astronomical knowledge, school takes the lead. Thus thorough facilitation in teaching of Astronomy and Astrophysics is required. We recommend Physics teachers to be given refresher courses and the scope of astronomy and astrophysics expanded.

No território do fantástico, o espaço se esparsa
Authors: Gama-Khalil Marisa Martins
Published: December 2023

O ensaio apresenta a hipótese de que os espaços se constituem como elementos ficcionais imprescindíveis para a irrupção da ambientação fantástica em narrativas do modo fantástico. Para cumprir esse intento três direções são percorridas: os cenários e macroespaços de contos de Edgar Allan Poe, os objetos mágicos em contos dos Irmãos Grimm e os corpos metamórficos em contos de Murilo Rubião. Na conclusão do ensaio, há a demonstração de como o espaço de linguagem da literatura fantástica apresenta-se constituído por meio do recurso estético que recorre a um plus ultra no processo de singularização e estranhamento.
“Sonharão no jardim”, uma utopia ambígua da ficção científica latinoamericana
Authors: Rusche Ana
Published: December 2023

“Sonharão no jardim”, conto da escritora mexicana Gabriela Damián Miravete (2015), apresenta uma utopia e distopia imbricadas, a partir do tema do feminicídio na América Latina. A narrativa opera uma ação de “hiperstição”, conceito no qual se prevê algo e a própria narrativa atua, no plano real da recepção, para que esse futuro possa ocorrer, conforme propõe Analía Ferreyra Carreres (2020), a partir das proposições de Alex Williams (2013) e Simon Sullivan (2017). O artigo ainda discute o uso de tempos verbais no futuro, soluções tradutórias ao português brasileiro e a configuração do jardim paradisíaco, como espaço de memória e resistência imaginárias
Multiple Primary Malignant Tumours
Authors: Salati Sajad Ahmad , Alkhezzi Amjaad , Elmuttalut Mohammad Ahmed , Memon Muhammad Munir , Memon Mushhood
Published: December 2023

Two or more histologically distinct malignancies in one individual are termed as multiple primary malignant tumours (MPMT). The incidence of these cases has been rising over the past few decades, primarily due to improved methods for cancer screening, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up. They can show up as metachronous lesions later on or synchronously with the index malignancy. The precise aetiology is still unknown; however, a number of epidemiological variables have been proposed as potential risk factors. Modern imaging techniques are very helpful in the diagnosing process. Physician awareness is essential in order to raise suspicions about the potential for MPMT and to conduct appropriate investigations. There are currently no universal protocols based on evidence; instead, management is empirical and dependent on the judgments made by interdisciplinary teams.

Published: December 2023

Bu araştırmanın amacı, Türkçe öğretmen adaylarının sınıf-içi değerlendirmeye yönelik özyeterlilik algılarını incelemek ve konuyla ilgili eğitime gereksinim duyulan aşamaları ortaya koymaktır. Bu amaca yönelik veriler ‘değerlendirme yöntemine karar verme’, ‘ölçme aracı oluşturma’, ‘süreç değerlendirme’, ‘not ile değerlendirme’ ve ‘sonuç değerlendirme’ olmak üzere beş boyut 38 maddeden oluşan beşli likert tipi bir sormaca ile toplanmıştır. Araştırmanın katılımcılarını lisans düzeyindeki eğitimini 3. ve 4. sınıfta sürdüren 135 Türkçe öğretmen adayı oluşturmuştur. Araştırmada veriler ‘Sınıf-içi değerlendirme özyeterlik algısı ölçeği’ ile toplanmıştır. Verilerin çözümlenmesinde tanımlayıcı istatistik kullanılmış ve veriler IBM SPSS Statistics 22 istatistik programında değerlendirilmiştir. Ulaşılan sonuçlara göre, öğretmen adaylarının değerlendirme alt boyutlarına ilişkin görüşleri incelendiğinde diğer alt boyutlara oranla ölçme aracı oluşturma boyutundaki ölçütlere yönelik özyeterlik algılarının daha düşük olduğu belirtilebilir. Öğretmen adaylarının sınıf içi değerlendirme özyeterlik algıları cinsiyet değişkenine göre incelendiğinde ölçme ve değerlendirme aşamalarına ilişkin seçimlerinin anlamlı bir farklılık oluşturmadığı görülmüştür. Bununla birlikte 3. ve 4. sınıf öğretmen adaylarının değerlendirme süreci alt boyutları arasında istatistiksel açıdan farklılık bulunmuştur. Gruplar arasındaki bu farkın etki büyüklüğü en fazla ölçme aracı oluşturma alt boyutundayken, en az etki eden alt boyutun sonuç değerlendirmede olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Ölçme ve değerlendirme ders içeriğinin alana özgü uygulama temelli yapılandırılması öğretmen adaylarının konuyla ilgili özyeterlik algılarını güçlendirebilir.

Published: December 2023

Este artículo recoge el análisis de las propiedades psicométricas del Cuestionario sobre Autorregulación del proceso de Aprendizaje (CAPA) en una muestra de 504 estudiantes universitarios de grado de la Universidad de La Laguna (España). La autorregulación del aprendizaje constituye uno de los factores más consistentes de predicción de la adaptación y del rendimiento académico del alumnado, por lo que identificar qué estrategias emplean los estudiantes durante su proceso de aprendizaje, qué factores facilitan o dificultan su empleo y en qué medida todo ello influye en el desempeño académico, es un objetivo estratégico de la educación superior, donde se vienen detectando cifras elevadas de fracaso y abandono de los estudios. Por este motivo, el objetivo de esta investigación fue elaborar, validar y aplicar una prueba para evaluar la capacidad de autorregulación de los estudiantes universitarios de grado. Siguiendo un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales, se comprobó que la escala de medida diseñada era válida y confiable para medir el constructo de autorregulación del aprendizaje, lo que se demostró con una muestra de estudiantes universitarios de nuevo ingreso. Los resultados confirman la importancia de contar con un instrumento de medida adaptado a las características del alumnado universitario, con el fin de analizar las dificultades que tienen durante el proceso de estudio y orientarles en su aprendizaje para prevenir el fracaso académico.
Organizational use and adoption of social media through TOE framework
Authors: Cvjetković Matea
Published: December 2023

The increasing importance of social media as a communication and marketing tool is reshaping how companies engage with their customers. Despite its numerous advantages, the social media adoption rate remains low among small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Croatia. Therefore, this study aims to recognize the primary elements that affect the acceptance of social media by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The research observes social media as a technological innovation and investigates its implementation within Croatia, a developing country. Using the TOE model as a guiding theoretical framework, a comprehensive agenda examines social media adoption within the technological, organizational, and environmental contexts in which SMEs operate. The research relies on an empirical analysis conducted on 86 surveyed SMEs. By applying the PLS-SEM method, the results showed that the technological and environmental contexts, as higher-order constructs, positively and significantly influence the adoption of social media in Croatian SMEs. The study is important because it contributes to the body of knowledge on social media adoption in developing countries and guides key personnel in SMEs in adopting social media in their organizations.

Authors: Volkova Yu.V. , Turchina S.I. , Sukhova L.L.
Published: December 2023

Objective — to study peculiarities of the state of vitamin and microelement provision in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes with the physiological and pathological course of puberty.

Materials and methods. The study involved 143 patients (75 boys and 68 girls) with type 1 diabetes aged 10 to 17 years. The level of retinol, tocopherol, 25(OH)D3 and Zn concentration were determined in blood serum.Results and discussion. The gender characteristics of vitamin and microelement imbalance in adolescents with type type 1 diabetes were determined, the nature of which depended on the course of puberty. Among boys with type 1 diabetes under the conditions of harmonious physical development (PD), an increase in the percentage of low levels of vitamin E was recorded more often than in girls (39.1 vs. 12.2 %, рφ < 0.02). In girls with a disharmonious type of PD with increased body weight and high height, there was an increase in the frequency of high levels of vitamin E (48.1 %) under conditions of a normal level of retinol (37.0 %). In boys with high height and body weight disorders, an increased level of Zn (64.3 %) and an increase in the frequency of pronounced vitamin D deficiency (47.6 %) were recorded more often. Only 9.5 % of patients had vitamin D levels that corresponded to the optimal level of provision. In girls with disharmonious PD, the level of 25(OH)D3 was higher than in boys and was (19.06 ± 1.51) and (13.10 ± 1.53) ng/ml, respectively; (рu < 0.002). Under the conditions of disharmonious PD boys had lower values of vitamin A (52.2 vs. 29.6 %, рφ < 0.05) and vitamin E (39.1 vs. 3.7 %, рφ < 0.05) compared to girls. In boys with the physiological course of sexual development (SD), in comparison with girls, a decrease in the level of zinc, retinol and tocopherol was more often registered. Under the conditions of SD disorders, a reduced level of vitamin A was more often registered in girls (66.7 vs. 35.7 %, рφ < 0.03) with a simultaneous decrease in the frequency of its elevated values (8.3 vs. 37.5 %, рφ < 0.01) relative to patients with a physiological course of SD. At the same time, normal levels of vitamin E were recorded more often. Under conditions of sexual development delay in boys, the frequency of normal values of vitamin E was decreased compared to girls. Аt the same time, pronounced deficiency of vitamin D was more often registered in boys with a simultaneous decrease in the frequency of its suboptimal level.

Conclusions. Based on the results of the study, a relationship between indicators of vitamin and microelement status and somatic and sexual development in adolescents with type I diabetes was established. The tension of reserves of vitamins A, E, D and the imbalance of zinc concentration were found in boys with disharmonious physical development. Sexual development delay in boys was accompanied by a deterioration in the nature of providing the body with vitamins D and E.

Climate change has been a challenge for development and humanity is pushing globally. Characterized by climate changes such as temperature, rainfall, humidity, and others. Indonesia is committed to reducing GHG emissions by conduted research in the agricultural land sector, the aim is to determine CH4, N2O, and CO2 emissions and the ratios of CH4, N2O, and CO2 on agricultural land. The type of research used is quantitative and qualitative content analysis. Quantitative data analysis uses statistical data and calculations with the IPCC formula. Meanwhile, qualitative data analysis will describe how agricultural land effects the environment. The research was conducted on agricultural land in Kasihan District. GHG emissions from the agricultural sector come from CH4 emissions in paddy field cultivation with a value of 789,600 CO2e, CO2 in the addition of lime and urea fertilizer with an emission value of 67,150 CO2e, N2O in land agricultural with an emission value of 1,713,098 CO2e, including indirect N2O emissions in the addition of N into the soil due to evaporation and leaching, as well as nonCO2 originating from burning biomass in agricultural activities

Healthy house is a building for shelter and rest and as a means of fostering a family that fosters a healthy life physically, mentally and socially, so that all family members can work productively.  Koto Tibun Village is one of the villages in Kampar Regency located in Kampar District.  The lack of public knowledge about healthy houses in Koto Tibun Village is relatively low, because most people build houses with their own business or only use the services of local handymen without proper planning.  In Koto Tibun Village, there are still some houses that do not meet the requirements for healthy houses due to lack of lighting, ventilation size, healthy latrines, garbage disposal, dirty water disposal, floors and also ceilings/asbestos.  In this regard, it is necessary to conduct a survey of healthy houses in Koto Tibun Village, Kampar District so that the proportion of existing healthy houses can be known and a targeted plan can be prepared.  Based on this explanation, the author is interested in researching more about the distribution of healthy houses in Koto Tibun Village.  The data collection techniques used in this study were field observation, interview and questionnaire. The results obtained from this study showed that there were 25 or 27.47% of the study subjects who were residential houses that belonged to the category of healthy houses and the remaining 66 or 72.53% of the study subjects were residential houses that were included in the category of unhealthy houses.

Moringa (Moringa oleifera Lam.) is a type of tropical plant that is easy to grow in Indonesia. This plant is classified as a shrub with a height of about 7-11 meters and thrives in the lowlands up to an altitude of 700 meters above sea level. Moringa plants have the potential to increase livestock production, especially used as feed for ruminants. Currently research on moringa is mostly focused on nutritional quality and health value obtained, while research on optimal cultivation of moringa is still very little. In this study, the production of moringa plants grown on soil media was carried out with the addition of manure with different doses and sources on the production of moringa plants. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with three treatments and five replications, P0 = 2 kg of soil without fertilizer, P1 = 1 kg of soil and 1 kg of cow manure. P2 = 1 kg of soil and 1 kg of goat manure. The application of organic fertilizer resulted in a significant decrease in the height growth of Moringa plants. On the diameter of the stem, organic fertilizer has a significant effect on increasing the size of the stem diameter. On leaf growth, the application of organic fertilizers did not significantly affect the growth of plant leaves. Types of organic fertilizers that give the best effect are goat feces on plant height, cow feces and goat feces give the best effect on plant stem diameter.

Asbuton is natural asphalt whose use in Indonesia is no stranger. One of the asbuton technologies that has been widely used is pre-mixed asbuton. Pre-mixed asphalt is one type of modified asphalt used in Indonesia. Pre-mixed Asphalt is processed and mixed with Pen 60/70 Asphalt at a factory that meets certain requirements, so that it is equivalent to Modified Asphalt. Premixed Asbuton products have a minimum level of purity of 90%, so they still contain a maximum of 10% fine minerals. This type of processed Pre-mixed Asphalt is the mobile container circulates directly inside the Asphalt Mixing Plant (AMP) boiler without the addition of Asphalt Pen 60/70 to produce Hot Mix Asphalt (Hotmix) which is equivalent to using Modified Asphalt. From the results of testing in the laboratory it was found that the asphalt mixture using pre-mixed asphalt has better technical properties than the conventional asphalt mixture (made using Pen 60/70 asphalt)

A quasi-stationary model for the formation of a clay filter during well drilling in depth intervals with permeable rocks is proposed, on the basis of which the physical parameters of the media, reservoir and well are established, which determine the dependence of its radial dimensions on time. It is assumed that the filtration pressure fields are described by stationary piezoconductivity equations. The dependence of pressure, mudcake thickness, radius of the zone of pressure disturbances in the permeable rock during drilling and other parameters on time is parametric. Such a dependence arises from an additional equation that relates the amount of fluid absorbed by the formation and the filtration rate at the inlet to the porous medium. The general formulation of the problem, which includes the stationary piezoconductivity equations for the mudcake and reservoir, boundary conditions, and an additional equation, is non-linear, since the boundaries of the perturbation zone in the reservoir and the mudcake are mobile. An analytical solution of the problem was constructed, on the basis of which studies were carried out on the influence of the physical parameters of the medium, wells, etc. on the process of formation of a clay cake in real conditions. Integrals of motion of a nonlinear problem are found, which represent invariant complexes of parameters that do not change during the formation of a mud cake. The presence of such integrals made it possible to establish the relationship between the solutions of problems presented in radial and linear geometries. It is shown that in the particular case of a thin mud filter, the obtained expressions for the radial geometry coincide with the known ones, when the geometric factor of the drilling fluid filtrate corresponds to a flat flow. New possibilities for estimating the physical parameters of reservoirs based on caliper logging have been identified. The solution of this problem is especially important for horizontal wells, in which the intervals of clay cake have a significant length, and its formation occurs under conditions of a wide range of reservoir properties of the formation. The considered problem is of practical importance, since the zone of penetration of the drilling fluid filtrate into the formation has a screening effect on the use of geophysical methods to determine the saturation of the formations. The obtained solutions can be used both to improve the interpretation of geophysical methods and the development of drilling technology.
