Spatial segregation and human capital of impoverished areas in China: Implications for livelihood resilience building
Authors: Li Yuheng , Jia Haowen , Xiao Wei , Naumov Alexey S.
Published: December 2023

Improving people’s livelihood resilience against risks and challenges plays an important role in consolidating the achievements of poverty reduction. The paper uses 64 poverty-stricken counties in China’s Sichuan province as the study area and explores the link between spatial segregation and human capital. The results show that the proximity (spatial segregation) is significantly and negatively associated with people’s educational attainment and their acquisition of non-farming employment. Residents in villages which are distant from the county center tend to obtain less educational opportunities and are less likely to engage in non-farming jobs than those who are close to the county center. The mediating effect analysis indicates that remoteness mainly reduces the propensity of getting non-farming jobs by reducing the human capital of rural residents. Further analysis shows that the association between proximity, human capital and the probability of acquiring non-farming work is higher in areas with lower economic level and less developed transportation infrastructure. Policy implications for improving people’s livelihood resilience in impoverished areas are proposed in the paper.

Relevance. The use of phytosanitary means to ensure high and stable yields of winter wheat is one of the tasks of growing winter wheat. Field experiments were conducted in 2021 and 2022 at the Federal Research Center “Nemchinovka” in the central non-chernozem zone of the Moscow region.Methods. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of various plant protection preparations on the productivity and quality of winter wheat varieties by intensity levels: basic (the purpose of using the biological potential of the variety by more than 50%), intensive (involving the use of intensive varieties and the creation of conditions for a more complete realization of their biological potential) and high–intensity (a set of measures aimed at ensuring the realization of the potential of the variety is more than 85%). Treatments included fertilizers, pesticides and growth regulators in various combinations and concentrations. Results. Three varieties of winter wheat were studied: Nemchinovskaya 85, Moskovskaya 40 and Moskovskaya 27. Insecticides (Picus 1.0 l/t, Danadim Power 0.6 l/ha, Picus 1.0 l/t + Danadim Power 0.6 l/ha, Picus 1.0 l/t + Vantex 60 ml/ha, Picus 1.0 l/t + Vincit forte 1.5 l/t and Picus 0.7 l/t + Vantex 50 ml/ha), fungicides (Impact Exclusive 0.75 l/ha, Alto Super 0.5 l/ha, Consul, CS 0.8 l/ha + Consul 1.0 l/ha and Consul, CS 0.8 l/ha), herbicides (Aton 0.06 kg/ha + Agroxon 0.5 l/ha + Foxtrot 1.0 l/ha, Exactly Extra 35 g/ha + Foxtrot 1.0 l/ha + Agroxon 0.5 l/ha, Tandem 0.03 kg/ha + Foxtrot 1.0 l/ha, Tandem 30 g/ha + Foxtrot Extra 0.4 l/ha + Agroxon 0.5 l/ha and Lintur 180 g/ha) have confirmed their effectiveness. Nemchinovskaya 85 increased yield by 1.14–3.10 t/ha, Moscow 27 — by 0.64–3.62 t/ha, Moscow 40 — 0,71–3,21 t/ha.

Planning the Reconquista of Venetian Istria
Authors: Banić Josip
Published: December 2023

The author critically edits, translates into English, and analyzes the Treaty of Pazin, a pact signed between Count Albert I of Gorizia and the Commune of Koper on July 27, 1278. The signees forged a military alliance directed against Venice, with the aim of reconquering the Istrian lands that had subjected themselves to the Venetian Commune between 1267 and 1271, that is, Poreč, Umag, Novigrad and Sveti Lovreč. First, the background leading up to the signing of this treaty is thoroughly illuminated, revealing the evolutionary thread that tied the two contrahents together in their Istrian ventures. Thus, the alliance formed in Pazin in 1278 was but a continuation of the joint efforts of the Gorizian and the Capodistrian commune, the duo’s first undertaking being the war against Patriarch Gregory fought in 1267 and 1268–1269. Second, the treaty itself is broken down, contextualized, and analyzed from the diplomatic point of view. It is shown that the document in question is a notarial sealed charter and that the surviving manuscript is one of the two originals issued in Pazin, that is, the Capodistrian exemplar. The paper then turns to the aftermath of the joint actions undertaken by the Gorizian-Capodistrian alliance, showing that the anti-Venetian coalition failed to achieve their primary objective, even though their initial prospects for achieving their goals had been high. The paper closes with an in extenso critical edition of the Treaty of Pazin and its translation into contemporary English.
Surgical Procedure for a Rare Case of Skull Bone Cysts
Authors: Rafiqi Ahmad
Published: December 2023

Introduction:
Bone cysts are inclusive of but not limited to the unicameral bone cyst (UBC) and aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC). UBC have a predilection for males (3:1). UBC make up 3% of primary bone lesions. Most UBCs are found in long bones, most common sites are proximal humerus and femurs, rarely found in flat bones (Skull). Cases of UBC observed following trauma are thought to occur due to intraosseous bleeding when bone organization or repair mechanisms fail.
Case Report:
Twenty-one-year-old male complained of headache, a history of traumatic brain injury. Motoric examinations show diminished motor function on the left side. CT Scan shows an expansile sclerotic lytic lesion on the right parietal bone. We diagnosed this case with a suggested Bone Cyst on the right parietal, and craniotomy tumor removal with a direct approach was performed. Thickened dura mater was identified, cleansed using NaCL and povidone-iodine, and drilled using a high-speed drill until flattened. The yellowish-colored bony lesion was discovered to contain a semi-translucent substance, the lesion was found to be a unicameral bone cyst.
Discussion:
UBCs are generally asymptomatic, and usually appear as lesions with lucent characteristics and small zones of transition. As a benign bone tumor, treatments are not required unless the lesion is large and symptomatic, due to the patient's symptomatic condition, craniotomy tumor removal was performed.
Conclusion:UBC is a rare condition, that’s scarcely located in the skull. Post-operatively, the patient shows normal motor function and no complaint of pain. Craniectomy tumor removal and flattening of the dura mater using a high-speed drill is sufficient in treating this rare disease.

Published: December 2023

Neste artigo, exploramos caminhos que levaram ao possível (des)encontro entre dois importantes intelectuais do século XX – Mário de Andrade e Anísio Teixeira – durante os anos 1930. Este fundou a Universidade do Distrito Federal, em que aquele foi convidado a lecionar em 1938, momento de seu “exílio no Rio” (Castro, 1989). No entanto, eles não parecem ter se visto pessoalmente durante os anos em que lecionaram na UDF, pois, a partir de 1935, Anísio teve de se "exilar" devido à perseguição que ocorria aos intelectuais considerados de esquerda. O educador passou dez anos em Caetité (BA), dedicado à tradução e aos negócios familiares. A partir de um cruzamento entre epistolografia, história oral e revisão bibliográfica, buscamos reconstruir as vivências de Anísio e Mário, enquanto "exilados" no Estado Novo, observando suas peculiaridades, bem como suas relações com experiências transnacionais ou outros autores, a fim de traçar (ou não) redes de sociabilidade entre eles.
THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE OJIR APPLICATION AT CENTRAL WASTE BANK IN MALANG DISTRICT FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF HOUSEHOLD-SCALE ORGANIC WASTE DIVERSIFICATION PROCESSES
Authors: Nurhasan Usman , Rohadi Erfan , Nurindrasari Diana , Arianto Rakhmat , Pradibta Hendra
Published: December 2023

The Ojir application, a mobile-based innovation for organic waste management at Central Malang Waste Bank (BCM), provides an effective solution to streamline the collection and management of organic waste. Addressing environmental concerns such as food scraps, dry leaves, and fruits, the application responds to Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK) data indicating that approximately 61.50% of total waste is organic, necessitating efficient management to reduce waste volume. Established in 2016, BCM faced challenges in manual data management and limited organic waste search capabilities. To address these issues, Ojir was introduced to modernize the organic waste management system. This innovation surpasses traditional waste management by incorporating a process of diversifying organic waste into maggot raw material. Beyond resolving existing waste bank issues, Ojir enhances management efficiency, allowing users to easily track and manage organic waste with increased accuracy. Consequently, the paradigm of organic waste management shifts towards modernity, effectiveness, and efficiency. Aligned with efforts to create a clean and sustainable environment, Ojir represents an innovative step in reinforcing the role of waste banks in handling organic waste in the technological era. The incorporation of the maggot raw material process further exemplifies the forward-thinking approach in sustainable waste management

The global decline in the extent and condition of ecological communities has resulted in an increasing demand for recovery and conservation plans. Conservation plans for ecological communities require a management framework with measurable, time-bound objectives, a targeted management strategy, and indicators that enable actions to be evaluated in relation to objectives. Methods that allow for the transfer of knowledge among similar systems and facilitate consistent and comparable plans are essential, especially when resources are constrained. We describe a process to streamline the development of conservation plans by combining functionally similar community sub-types into a multi-community State and Transition Model. We demonstrate this approach in a case study where we use the combined expertise of Australian ecologists to build a multi-community State and Transition Model for eucalypt woodlands of southern Australia – an ecosystem which occupies a vast geographical range across temperate Australia and includes many distinct vegetation communities, a growing number of which are endangered or threatened. We identify commonalities and differences among three broad woodland sub-types including a set of eight general condition states, a list of drivers of transitions among condition states, and the uncertainties and time-frames associated with each transition. Two key findings across all models are that management is state-dependent, and transition directly to the ‘Exemplar’ state from any other state is considered highly unlikely. Other examples of State and Transition Models in the literature are focused on single communities or a significantly smaller scale, and this is the first attempt to construct a nationally relevant multi-community State and Transition Model via a structured and consultative process. Based on this case study, we propose a repeatable protocol for developing multi-community State and Transition Models. This process could improve and streamline the development of robust conservation plans for threatened ecological communities more broadly.
Peer Mentoring as a Means of Leader Support in Early Childhood Education and Care
Authors: Kupila Päivi
Published: December 2023

Mentoring has become a valuable tool in supporting professionals. However, despite the benefits of mentoring, mentoring in early childhood education (ECE) has been paid only limited attention. The chapter is based on a research project focusing on peer mentoring as a means of leader support in Finnish ECE. The purpose of the project was to implement a peer mentoring programme to develop mentoring for leaders. During the programme, 21 leaders working in ECE were trained to start working as peer mentors for leaders in ECE. Learning activities during the programme required participants to start peer mentoring in their own professional contexts. The study investigates peer mentors’ experiences of peer mentoring related to their mentoring process with their mentees. Qualitative data were obtained through focus group interviews investigating the peer mentors’ experiences of the peer mentoring. The findings show that peer mentoring facilitates leadership in ECE. Peer mentoring provided a safe space to discuss professional issues and dilemmas and is characterised by collegial and reciprocal relationships. The results enhance our understanding of peer mentoring from the perspective of the peer mentors.
Early Childhood Leaders’ Conceptualisation and Understanding of Leadership in Community Centres: The Case of South Africa
Authors: Modise Matshediso Rebecca , Mampane Sharon , Phatudi Nkidi
Published: December 2023

This chapter conceptualises leadership in early childhood care and education (ECEC) centres in South Africa. The report emanates from the Project in Early Childhood Policy Analysis (PECPA) research project conducted in ECEC community centres in the rural communities of Gauteng Province (RSA). Because of the minimal research conducted on centre managers’ conceptualisation of leadership in rural South African ECEC centres, the study aims to highlight the challenges, understanding, and practices of ECEC centre leaders. Five principals were purposively selected from five rural community settings in this qualitative case study. The school-based management theory and leadership principle, termed centre-based management, underpinned the chapter. The research lends itself to an exploratory qualitative data collection method through face-to-face semi-structured interviews to explore the phenomenon under study. Findings reveal that principals’ conceptualisation and understanding of leadership practices focus on administrative duties that exclude distributive leadership. The conceptualisation of leadership is limited to performing managerial duties such as practitioner recruitment, fundraising, and centre resource development. The conclusion is that ECEC leadership and sustainable development of community centres urgently require well-trained, informed, visionary, experienced, and critical-thinking leaders.

Published: December 2023

As developing nations continue to provide children with high-quality education, they too struggle to understand the notion of leadership and teacher involvement within the sector. This study is part of a Caribbean cross-national project on leadership in the early childhood sector funded by the government of Trinidad and Tobago and The University of the West Indies. A survey of 721 early childhood teachers in Trinidad and Tobago and Barbados provided data on their myths and beliefs about leadership. Key findings debunked the notion that teachers believed that only positional leaders can lead within ECEC settings. Intuitive understandings of the potential of distributed leadership were analysed. Global myths and beliefs were scrutinised. Global understanding and possibilities for qualitative research across borders were identified. A conceptual framework is offered for global advancement and support for teacher leaders from developing countries.

Authors: Heikka Johanna , Koivula Merja , Hautakangas Merja , Suhonen Katja
Published: December 2023

This chapter investigates the implementation of pedagogical leadership by Finnish early childhood education (ECE) centre directors. The study focuses on the key pedagogical leadership responsibilities of three centre directors and how leadership structures and approaches influence the implementation of pedagogical leadership in ECE settings. Qualitative shadowing was employed to investigate the directors’ leadership practices on pedagogical leadership in selected settings. The findings reflected three main areas of responsibility for pedagogical leadership: leading pedagogical activities and curriculum work within the centre, leading professional development of educators, and leading pedagogical assessment and development. Furthermore, it was revealed that leadership structures in the municipality and leadership approaches of the centre directors significantly influenced the implementation of pedagogical leadership. This study’s findings can inform and promote the implementation of pedagogical leadership and can enhance the preparation and training of ECE leaders who can guide the quality provisioning of ECE programmes that impact children’s learning outcomes.
THE IMPACT OF A FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT-BASED INQUIRY MODEL ON SCIENCE STUDENT UNDERSTANDING AND EXPLANATIONS OF CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL CHANGES
Authors: Almuntasheri Saeed
Published: December 2023

In the context of inquiry-based learning, it is widely acknowledged that fostering teachers' skills in formative assessment is vital for enhancing student learning. This study examined the impact of a formative assessment-based inquiry model on science student understanding and explanations. A quasi-experimental approach that adopts the design of two groups was used. The study sample included 62 science students enrolled in the 10th grade in Saudi Arabia who were randomly assigned to an experimental group (n = 31) or a control group (n = 31). The experimental group was taught by teachers who were engaged in professional development that embedded formative assessment into teaching 5Es inquiry learning while the control group was taught conventionally. Pre- and posttests that consisted of two sections: multiple-choice (20 questions with four alternative answers) and five open-ended questions were given to the two groups. Independent sample t-tests were performed to assess the students’ understanding and explanations of physical and chemical changes. Posttest results show that students in the experimental group significantly outperformed their peers in the control group in the multiple choice and the open-ended questions. The study findings suggest the significance of integrating formative assessment with inquiry-based learning to support teachers in exploring prior knowledge and promoting learners' diverse responses. Further research should study factors that impact teachers' actions to challenge learners' thinking and encourage their inquiry to address their inconsistent views and explanations.

REVOLUTIONIZING PRE-CALCULUS EDUCATION: PHOTOMATH'S AI-POWERED MATHEMATICS TUTORSHIP
Authors: Capinding Andie Tangonan
Published: December 2023

Mathematics plays a vital role in education; however, Filipino students encounter difficulties, evident in their performance on both national and international assessments. However, current literature suggests that leveraging technology, such as calculators and AI, in mathematics education can enhance students' proficiency, particularly in the pre-calculus domain. Thus, this research study examined the effectiveness of Photomath in enhancing Filipino students' self-reliance, interest, and performance in pre-calculus. A quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was used, with 49 Grade 11 students from NEUST Laboratory High School participating. Descriptive and inferential statistical analyses were performed to examine the pre-and post-intervention data. Results revealed a significant increase in students' self-reliance, interest, and performance in pre-calculus following the use of Photomath. The mean scores on all three measures increased significantly from the pretest to the posttest. The results of the t-tests further confirmed the effectiveness of Photomath in enhancing students' self-reliance, interest, and performance in pre-calculus. These results suggest that Photomath can be a valuable tool for educators to incorporate into pre-calculus teaching to enhance students' confidence and interest, foster intrinsic motivation, and ultimately improve their performance.

Los adolescentes en la escena del crimen: ¿un remedio contra la afasia colonial?
Authors: Krizmanics Georg T. A.
Published: December 2023

Los y las adolescentes apenas son tomados/as en consideración por los museos en sus ofertas educativas. No obstante, defiendo que debido a su potencial tendencialmente disruptivo, la inclusión de este grupo sería enriquecedora para la cultura política democrática que también se hace palpable por medio de las exposiciones museísticas. De su calidad depende en qué medida las exposiciones ayudan u obstaculizan a reconocer las diferencias y los conflictos en el pasado y en las interpretaciones sobre el pasado. La participación sustancial y sostenida en el tiempo de los y las adolescentes favorece la democratización de los museos, porque este colectivo tiende a buscar en las exposiciones la polifonía del pasado presente para formular posturas críticas frente a relatos continuistas, como los que constituyen la afasia colonial. Ello suministraría nutrientes a una cultura política en marchitamiento por la creciente polarización social, política y económica que cada vez más carece de espacios que permiten el conflicto según las reglas democráticas, tan necesarias para contener la violencia.

Determinants of Women’s Participation in Decision-Making on Household Income Allocation
Authors: Mapapa Augustin Mbangala , Milando Eurasme Kakule
Published: December 2023

In the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), as is the case in most sub-Saharan African countries, women make a significant contribution to household income. However, they are traditionally excluded from the decision-making process regarding the allocation of household income, as only the man is considered the head and decision-maker. With modernization, we increasingly observe another form of household organization that takes into consideration the participation of women in decision-making in African households. This article analyzes the determining factors that contribute dynamically to this change. Starting with qualitative analysis, the binary logistic method was used to highlight the variables that explain the probability of a woman participating in the decision-making process that affects the couple's income.

This exploratory study aimed to assess the dietary profile of 2nd division footballers in the departmental league of Brazzaville. Our sample was made up of 120 subjects divided into 3 clubs and aged on average 17.86 ± 1.39 years. Through the standardized and extended nutritional survey (SENS) and food frequency questionnaire (FFQ), we used the 24-hours recall method to assess nutritional status, respect for meal times, types of food consumed, quantity of food and variation of breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner foods. The results obtained showed that the nutritional status was normal at the level of the three (03) clubs (19.95 ± 2.12 kg/m2 for Gothia club, 21.60 ± 1.61 kg/m2 for Marakana club and 21.31 ± 1.88 kg/m2 for Red Star club. However, we first noted a lack of respect for meal times in 52.2% of Gothia players, 72.2% of Marakana players and 81.6% of Red Star players respectively. Similarly, dissatisfaction with competition meals was then noticed in 60.9%, 83.3% and 55.3% of Gothia, Marakana and Red Star players respectively. An insufficient number of meals taken during the day and no dietary variation in 60.9%, 58.3% and 57.9% of the players of the three respective clubs. Similarly, these results showed the intake of an insufficient amount of food respectively in 60.9%, 55.6% and 44.7% of the players of the three respective clubs. In the end, it was revealed an under-information in terms of sports nutrition in 100%, 77.78%, and 68.42% of the players of the three respective clubs. In conclusion, the food profile of footballers was inadequate and not controlled by nutritionists. This profile is associated with a nutritional imbalance, which is a factor in poor athletic performance.

Background: Postpartum hemorrhage is one of the most common obstetrical complications affecting up to 18% of deliveries. Globally, it is responsible for 35 – 55% of peripartum maternal deaths. In Cameroon, the maternal mortality rate is at 406 maternal death per 100,000 live births, with PPH being the leading cause accounting for about 25%. This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of misoprostol versus oxytocin in the prevention of postpartum hemorrhage in the Bamenda Health District and Nkwen Health District. Methods: This was a hospital-based randomized clinical trial study in the Bamenda Regional Hospital and Nkwen District Hospital. The study was conducted from March 1st to May 31st 2021 including pregnant women who delivered at the maternity at these two hospitals. All their pregnancy was singleton gestation at term and haven given their informed consent. Women with known history of cardiac, renal, hepatic diseases or any coagulopathy, Cesarean delivery were excluded. We randomized 308 participants in a 1:1 ratio to receive 800 μg of oral misoprostol or 10IU of oxytocin intramuscularly during the active management of third stage of labor (AMSTL). The Hemoglobin (Hb) concentration and hematocrit (HCT) of the participants were measured before and 24hrs after delivery. Our primary outcome of interest was (Post-Partum Hemorrhage) PPH, defined as Hb change ≥ 1g/dl within 24hrs of delivery. Secondary outcomes included; mean Hb change, Hb change ≥2g/dl (severe PPH). Dichotomous outcomes between study groups were compared by estimating crude relative risks (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals. Logistic regression (the chi-square test) was done to determine the factors associated with the occurrence of postpartum hemorrhage, with a level of significance at 5%. Results: After 24hrs, Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) occurred in 41 (26.6%) and 47 (30.5%) participants in the misoprostol and oxytocin groups respectively (RR= 0.87, 95% C.I= 0.61 - 1.24, p=0.449). Severe postpartum hemorrhage occurred in 3 (1.9%) and 5 (3.2%) participants in the misoprostol and oxytocin groups respectively (RR= 0.6, 95% C.I=0.15 - 2.47, p=0.723). Past history of PPH (aOR=10.1 (3.5 – 28.6), p<0.0001), augmentation of labor (aOR=3.4 (1.6 – 7.1), p=0.0011), fetal birth weight ≥3.5Kg (aOR=2.5 (1.3 – 4.8), p=0.0074) and retained products (aOR= 8.4 (4.2 – 16.7), p<0.0001) were risk factors of PPH. Participants in the misoprostol group more commonly experienced shivering (RR 3.2, 95% CI 2.0 - 5.1, p<0.0001) and nausea/vomiting (RR 35.5, 95% CI 8.9 – 142.2, p<0.0001). Conclusion: Oral misoprostol at the dose of 800μg is as effective as 10 IU IM Oxytocin in the prevention of PPH and is a potent alternative to oxytocin. Most common risk factors of PPH are past history of PPH, augmentation of labor, fetal weight ≥ 3.5kg and retained products. Side effects were mostly associated with 800μg of oral Misoprostol.
