Abstract. Objective: To analyze the perception and interaction of Physical Education (PE) teachers with pregnant students in the Physical Education and Health (PE&H) class. Methods: 60 PE teachers who taught PE&H classes to pregnant students voluntarily answered a questionnaire. The instrument was specially designed for this research and validated by expert judgment. The study had a quantitative approach with non-probability sampling. The analysis included descriptive analysis and Pearson's Chi-square test (p < .05). Results: 90% of the teachers surveyed affirm that PE&H class can help the newborn's good embryonic development and health. However, they also state that only 58.3% of students with adolescent pregnancy at the school stage receive PE&H classes. At the same time, 31.6% of PE teachers who have taught courses to pregnant adolescents claim not to have the necessary skills to carry out these activities. Conclusions: At the end of the study, low participation of pregnant adolescents in PE&H classes is evident. However, PE teachers consider that PE&H classes during pregnancy contribute to good embryonic development and the newborn's health and do not generate risks for the fetus and the pregnant adolescent. Finally, PE teachers perceive that they can lead PE&H classes during pregnancy.

Forgiveness According to the Christian View in the Indonesian Context
Authors: Arina Hein , Suoth Vanny Nancy
Published: May 2022

Horizontal conflicts are triggered by intolerant attitudes. Intolerance arises when religious fanaticism is too excessive and there is no forgiveness. This research aims to describe forgiveness from a Christian point of view. To achieve this goal, the research was carried out with a qualitative approach using library research methods. The results show that for Christians, (i) forgiveness is the main condition for obtaining God's grace, (ii) forgiveness is God's commandment for His people to forgive fellow human beings, as God's model provides forgiveness to sinful humans by sacrificing Jesus Christ, (iii) forgiveness is the need of people who believe in God, because without forgiving others, including their enemies, we will not get blessings from God, and (iv) forgiveness is the main condition for following Jesus and being forgiven. Forgiveness is the social capital of Christians to care for pluralism, the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia, and the Unity of Indonesia. With forgiveness, any conflicts that arise in the midst of society, the country, or even the world can be resolved. Both horizontal and vertical conflicts can be resolved.  Forgiveness is the social capital of Christians to care for pluralism, the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia, and the Unity of Indonesia. With forgiveness, any conflicts that arise in the midst of society and the country, and even the world, both horizontal and vertical conflicts can be resolved

Published: May 2022

Over the years, few organisations are gradually coming to terms with the pertinence and essentiality of the strategic and pregnable tool of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in the attainment of organisational goals. While some are facing various issues while adopting CSR practices, others are yet to know which CSR activities is best to adopt based on their physical needs. Therefore, this study empirically investigates the role of CSR in the attainment of organisational performance in Ogbomoso Microfinance Bank (MFB). Four research objectives on the relationship between CSR and key important aspect of MFB in Ogbomoso were deployed to 80 employees across Ogbomoso MFB using survey research design. Different analysis such as descriptive statistics, Pearson’s Correlation and regression analysis and T-square with the aid of SPSS were used for the analysis of this survey. The findings revealed that there is a significant correlation between CSR and effectiveness of organisational performance as well as employees and environments. The analysis of the CSR and organisation performance recorded a F-statistics value of 3.648 and p-value of 0.005<0.05. The study also found out that the participation of MFBs in CSR activities is somewhat low based on the statistical analysis which recorded a T-value of 0.263 < 1.96 with significance ratio of 0.793 > 0.05 which indicates that each of the microfinance bank in Ogbomosho spend less than 10% of their profit on CSR activities. Therefore, the study recommends that Ogbomoso MFB should proactively involve in CSR for a significant contribution to productivity and stability.

Authors: Al-Nahdi Yousef Ali Ahmed Saleh , Shuo Zhao
Published: May 2022

We examined Chinese university students' daily-life casual attitudes regarding code-switching of English. It challenges students' everyday and simple conversations. Code-switching is "the use of two or more languages within the same conversation, usually within the same conversational turn, or even within the same sentence. According to the study, code-switching is a combination of two languages used during the same auditory communication or conversation between Chinese University students. An interview sample of students represents one of the public universities in Beijing. Participants included 42 Chinese students from various majors, including journalism, media, communication, drama, and languages. This study involved a questionnaire containing 21 questions. According to the study, there was an evident shortage of English code-switching features among this population. To say it differently, they rarely use code-switching, as they are afraid of conveying a wrong meaning, and using Chinese is easier and more convenient.

Published: May 2022

The tourism sector is one of the strategic and potential sectors in national and regional economic development. As a country with natural and cultural resources, Indonesia has enormous potential to build and develop the tourism industry. The Covid-19 Pandemic caused the tourism sector to experience a significant decline. Besides, the Covid-19 Pandemic also provided opportunities and time for the government to rearrange tourism institutions to be even better. The research aims are the identification of superior tourism potential in Lumajang Regency, supporting and inhibiting factors for tourism development in Lumajang Regency, and adaptive tourism development strategies in Lumajang Regency in the new normal era. This study is descriptive with a qualitative approach to analyze the policy strategies that need to be implemented by local governments to increase the competitiveness of tourism based on superior potential in the post-Covid 19 pandemics: locus research at Lumajang Regency, East Java, Indonesia. The results show that Lumajang Regency has 37 tourist destinations that provide and contribute to locally generated revenue. However, there is no transparent integration model between the Local Government Agencies and other stakeholders, so tourism development still seems partial. In line with the increasingly competitive development of the tourism industry, tourism development must be encouraged to develop more strongly and be directed appropriately to increase the comparative advantage and competitive advantage of tourism in Lumajang Regency in the post the Covid-19 Pandemic. In addition, the study results indicate that tourism development in Lumajang Regency is still not optimal due to the weakness of tourism organization institutions. Efforts to strengthen these institutions can be carried out in four stages of action plans, namely human and institutional development, destination quality development, marketing development, and strengthening the tourism industry structure. The four stages consider aspects of the CHSE (Clean, Health, Safety, and Environmental Sustainability) standard for the tourism sector. The Covid-19 Pandemic has provided momentum for the Lumajang Government to strengthen tourism management.

Published: May 2022

These last years, the Algerian steppe has known a strong degradation caused in particular by the scarcity of the annual rainfall. It spreads in certain cases to successive years generated by a persistent drought. A series of indices were applied to rainfall records recorded for 30 years (1985-2015) in the treated stations to identify the severity of the drought in the steppe regions. The present work proposes to study and compare the performance of some drought indices to identify a permanent monitoring system in the steppe. The indices studied are Pluviometric  Deficit Index (PDI), StandaPDIzed Precipitation Index (SPI), and the Ratio compared to the Normal (RN). We can deduce Climate variability is manifested by regressive spatio-temporal dynamics, thus, drought is recurrent phenomenon in the Algerian steppe
The relationship between self-esteem and the online environment in preadolescents
Authors: Călin Mariana Floricica , Sandu Mihaela Luminița , Robu Ruxandra Elena
Published: May 2022

Self-esteem is a widely studied concept in the field of psychology and not only,this human component according to the multitudes of researches carried out ends up affecting a wide spectrum of activities carried out by people if they are in an imbalance. I chose this staging of preadolescence in relation to self-esteem and the online environment because I consider this period the most susceptible to changes caused by the environment, regardless of what that may be and especially in the virtual environment where today's preadolescents have found either a confidant, an emotional support, a satisfactory of needs or even a refuge. This new environment that in the last 15 years has developed amazingly, and which was meant to make our lives easier and bring us only satisfaction, has also proven to bring dissatisfaction in the most unexpected aspects of developing human life. Another reason why I chose this research topic also comes from personal experience during adolescence, at the beginning of this stage getting acquainted with social media and facing different states or changes of perspective now realizing in adulthood as being at that time flawed for my development, I understood that what was created in my mind and later in my behavior was influenced by the new digital environment to which I had adhered without to think that I will expose myself at the same time to such an influential space.

Authors: Aini Desti Nur , Winarno Agung
Published: May 2022

The purpose of this study is to reveal the management of the variety and quality of pottery products as a cultural heritage that contributes to the welfare of craftsmen and the community as well as the stability of local wisdom. Continuity and changes are made by the craftsmen as a result of the flood of products with the same function made of manufactured plastic. This study employed a Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) approach, which used approaches and policies in Pagelaran Village, Malang Regency by involving the community as effectively as possible. The data mining technique is in the form of participatory mapping. The results showed that, to improve the welfare of craftsmen, they carried out a harmonious combination of adaptive behavior and adaptive strategies that were carried out explicitly or implicitly in response to various environmental conditions in order to promote the variety and quality of local traditional pottery products. The community implicitly carries out the process of adjusting the cultural heritage of pottery by maintaining the sustainability and continuity of local traditional pottery products. Meanwhile, the development of a variety of products is explicitly carried out which leads to a shift in the function of the pottery itself as an effect of socio-cultural changes.

Published: May 2022

This study aimed to unravel the speaking barriers experienced by the criminology students in face-to-face oral communications, the effects of these barriers in their speaking performance and the strategies they use to cope with these speaking barriers. Results from these queries served as bases in developing a remedial intervention program that aims to improve students’ English-speaking skills and overcome their communication barriers most specially in face-face-to settings. To achieve these aims, this study used qualitative descriptive design with semi-structured interview as data gathering tool. Nine criminology students were interviewed. Results showed that the oral communication barriers experienced by these 9 criminology students in face-to-face communications with English as medium include lack of knowledge of the English language such as vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation; limited content knowledge/topical knowledge; and psychological related constraints. Meanwhile, results showed that the oral communication barriers experienced by the criminology students result to misinterpretation of the meaning they want to convey and mental blackouts. Findings also showed that the participants employ strategies in coping with the oral communication barriers and in avoiding being misinterpreted and mental blackouts, these include watching English movies, reading, practicing oneself to speak in English alone, googling, and interacting with others.

Behind the official website of the Metropolis of Moldavia and Bukovina - philosophy and the sources of inspiration
Authors: Rusu Tudorel-Constantin
Published: May 2022

The phenomenon of Christianity on the Internet is widely known and appreciated by most Christian faithful and priests for quite a long time, even though in the beginning it was met with distrust. This proves, once again, that there is no medium of communication totally incompatible with the “Good News” - the Gospels. Regarding the online presence of the Romanian Orthodox Church in general and of the Metropolis of Moldavia and Bukovina in particular, it became clearly evident that a web platform representing the Church, besides its spiritual and dogmatic rigours, had to align itself with the expectations and online habits of the public - in this case of the faithful - to ensure their engagement. That’s why I consider it significant to present the philosophy and some of the initial sources of inspiration that led to the success of Doxologia.ro, the official website of the Metropolis of Moldavia and Bukovina, which has now the most readers (an average of 97.027 unique users daily in 2021) of the official and private religious sites in Romania.

Thus, my main research questions are: Why is the web platform Doxologia.ro a special case regarding Christian mass media in Romania? What are the major concepts from which the platform started? Finally, how can a Christian bimillennial tradition be user friendly?

TURKIC DYNASTIES IN EGYPT
Authors: Aripova Zukhra
Published: May 2022

It is known from history that many dynasties lived and ruled not only in their own country but also in other countries. Such dynasties include the Tulunids, the Ikhshidis, and the Bahri Mamluks from the Turkic dynasties. These were the dynasties from Mawarannahr who ruled in Egypt. If we look at the history of these dynasties, we will see that they rose from slavery to the rank of Sultan due to their courage and skillful military leadership. They came to this land from Mawarannahr as slaves and subsequently came to power by their actions. The difference between these dynasties and other kings and sultans is that almost all the rulers inherited the throne from their fathers. Of the representatives of such a dynasty, Abu Abbas Ahmad ibn Tulun (835-884) was born in Bagdad. His father Tulun was introduced to Nuh ibn Asad al-Samani by workers from Bukhara. In 816, as-Samani presented Tulun to Caliph Mamun. Tulun served as head of security for twenty years. After his death, his son Ahmad ibn Tulun was brought up by a friend and focused on receiving religious and military education. The Abbasid caliph sent Ahmad ibn Tulun to Egypt as a governor, and later, thanks to his courage and intelligence, he founded an independent state in Egypt. The Tuluni dynasty (868–905) was one of the first to rule the caliphate, establishing independent local dynasties in Egypt and Syria. Historians have recognized this period as the “Golden Age” due to the construction work and reforms carried out by Tulunids. Egypt was again under the rule of the Abbasid caliphs for 30 years. The Ikhshids (935-969), the second Turkic dynasty of Ferghana origin separated Egypt from the Abbasid caliphs and turned it into an independent state. After the establishment of the Fatimids in 969, the Ikhshid dynasty in Egypt ceased to exist. When the Bahri Mamluks came to power in 1250, they ruled Egypt until 1382. During this period, many historical buildings were built, and the capital of the Abbasid Caliphate was moved to Cairo.
Detección temprana del riesgo escolar. Predicción de trayectorias de rezago en la educación primaria en Uruguay mediante técnicas de machine learning
Authors: Cardozo Santiago , Silveira Adrián , Fonseca Bruno
Published: May 2022

El trabajo utiliza técnicas de aprendizaje computacional (machine learning) para la estimación del riesgo escolar durante los primeros tres años de la trayectoria en la enseñanza primaria de una cohorte de alumnos uruguayos. Se utilizan tres técnicas de análisis (regresión logística, redes bayesianas y árboles de clasificación) con el propósito de identificar el riesgo de trayectorias escolares pautadas por la repetición de al menos un curso, en función de un conjunto de factores antecedentes a su transición al primer grado de enseñanza primaria. Estos factores abarcan desde las condiciones sociosanitarias al momento del nacimiento hasta la situación familiar y educativa de los alumnos sobre el final de su escolarización preprimaria. En particular, el análisis se focaliza en el poder predictivo de las habilidades captadas por la Evaluación Infantil Temprana (EIT) que se aplica próximo a la finalización de la educación inicial, sobre los cinco años de edad. Los resultados sugieren que las habilidades captadas por EIT logran identificar anticipadamente a la mayoría de los niños con riesgo educativo. Los niveles de precisión y de sensibilidad de los modelos que incluyen este factor evidencian el potencial de los sistemas de alerta temprana para detectar y prevenir situaciones de “fracaso escolar”.

Authors: Mutya Sirisha Adapa  , Venkateswararao Pallipamu
Published: May 2022

In this digital era, data transmission through network is essential for everyone. Users are not confident that their data is secure when it is transferred through a network. So there is a need of protecting data transferring through network in a swollen manner. Cryptography is our conventional method for protecting information and communications using some keys. But keys can be stolen or forgotten. Due to these reasons biometrics are introduced for key generation. Keys generated using biometrics are specific to that person and are generated dynamically with their biometrics. By combining cryptography with biometrics, we can develop a secure system which can be used in different applications like law enforcement, border control, consumer biometrics, financial services and also to provide access for smart devices. In this comparative study of various attacks on Biometric Cryptosystems are discussed and related techniques used in Biometric Cryptosystems for key generation like Fuzzy Extractor and key binding techniques such as Fuzzy Vault, Fuzzy Commitment are discussed and their performance is analysed.

Published: May 2022

To overcome the shortcomings of current classroom evaluation methodologies, a teaching effectiveness evaluation strategy based on computer vision technology is being developed. Attendance is determined by using face detection. The curve fitting approach is used to objectively assess the seat selection distribution. The head-up rate of students raising their heads and good feelings are determined using head posture estimation technology and facial expression recognition technology to assess students' up or down state and expressions, respectively. Finally, to analyse the teaching effect, a geometric mean function based on attendance, seat attendance detection, head up rate, and the proportion of happy sentiments is provided. The experiment findings show that this method's evaluation results are quite close to those of teachers and pupils.

No Censo 2018 foi observado uma taxa significativa na distorção idade-série a partir do terceiro ano do fundamental, consequência do “Efeito Mateus” citado por estudiosos. Resultados: Com base nestas lacunas observadas, a Política Nacional de Alfabetização enfatiza que o ensino deve basear-se nos seguintes componentes: consciência fonêmica, instrução fônica sistemática, fluência em leitura oral, desenvolvimento do vocabulário, compreensão de texto produção de escrita, sendo os beneficiários prioritários do programa alunos da educação infantil e dos anos iniciais da educação básica sendo aproximadamente 23,7milões de contemplados com este programa que tem por meta uma formação básica com qualidade que será acompanhada por constante avaliação e monitoramento conforme consta em planejamento desta política. Quanto a educação infantil um fator que vem sendo motivo de preocupação, devido ao caráter lúdico desta etapa que pode ser ameaçada pela antecipação do processo de alfabetização, e a adoção de livro didático para as crianças que constitui-se num fator já visto com certo incômodo nesta etapa da educação básica. Conclusão: Pode-se afirmar que em decorrência da pandemia, o nível de desenvolvimento dos alunos ficou seriamente comprometido devido as lacunas geradas e esta Política Nacional de Alfabetização pode ser uma aliada neste processo de recuperação de aprendizagem.

Published: May 2022

Introdução: A prática docente não ocorre de forma isolada mas depende de fatores que contribuirão para que o processo educacional, sob esta contextualização seja significativo. Objetivo: O presente trabalho tem como objetivo analisar aspectos interdependentes no exercício da docência. Material e métodos: A metodologia foi baseada na pesquisa bibliográfica acerca do tema a ser tratado. A formação do professor passa por processos de reconstrução devido a mudanças sociais e, aprimoramento da práxis pedagógica. Um fato contemporâneo, a pandemia e as mudanças trazidas para a docência onde foi necessário adaptação à nova realidade, em que o virtual foi e está sendo necessário para continuidade ao processo educacional do ano letivo. Desta forma, o currículo deve ser constantemente revisitado ou analisado devido às constantes mudanças na sociedade, ou seja, deve ser atualizado para atendimento da diversidade social, cultural, de conhecimento etc. Resultados: Vemos então que o professor de hoje vivenciará mudanças de paradigmas, valores, novos conhecimentos que interferirão em sua prática pedagógica refletindo a visão de mundo, concepções e posicionamento político de educação. Através desta constante mudança, este profissional vem se readequando para manter um trabalho pedagógico de qualidade, se atualizando às novas demandas que surgem em seu trabalho. Então podemos constatar que processos culturais tem importância fundamental na educação porém devem estar dialogando com o currículo e a prática pedagógica para que o processo ensino aprendizagem ocorra com sucesso, ou seja, ele vem como fio condutor pois, sem uma interligação entre ambos a dinâmica educacional não acontecerá. Como já fora pontuado anteriormente, devido ao processo de pandemia, presenciamos um período em que a tecnologia vem sendo amplamente utilizada na educação. Conclusão: Portanto, para termos uma educação de qualidade é necessário que o exercício da docência, o currículo e processos culturais estejam diretamente correlacionados, para uma pratica docente exitosa.

This study sought to examine the implications of ideological framing of Somali refugees’ repatriation from Kenya in news reports in the Daily Nation and The Standard; as well as in the Guardian and Washington Post. This study was conducted using the comparative research design aimed at providing ideological framing of Somali refugees’ repatriation from Kenya. The researcher used a comparative research design to identify and analyse differences and similarities between the arguments by recording outcomes without manipulation. This study's target sources of data are newspaper reports addressing the arguments about the Somali refugees' repatriation from Kenya as reported in the local and international print media. The researcher used news reports about the arguments of Somali repatriation from Daadab in Kenya as reported in the local and international print media by adopting the purposive sampling technique. In this study, data was collected from newspaper reports from both the local and international newspapers that have covered the arguments about the repatriation of Somali refugees from the Daadab refugee camp in Kenya. This study used a qualitative data analysis technique. The study concluded that the media should do more research to come up with an objective ideology from the refugees. Framing of stories based on the donors and government may not always show what is happening at the camp. It recommends that the ideologies that were portrayed strongly in this study are insecurity, sympathy for refugees, donor benefits, instability in Somalia and economic burden.

Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease with a high prevalence in humans and farm animals in Turkey. However, data on the genetic diversity of Brucella spp. circulating in Turkey and parts of the Mediterranean region are limited. In the present study, the genetic diversity of 50 B. melitensis isolates from seven regions of Turkey was investigated using multi-locus variable number tandem repeats analysis (MLVA-16). The profiles were compared with 163 B. melitensis isolates recovered from the Mediterranean basin. B. melitensis strains from Turkey contain 46 different genotypes and consist of two main clusters. B. melitensis isolates from Turkey were closely related to isolates from Greece and some Portuguese strains. The same genotypes isolated from different sites show the spread between sites. Therefore, uncontrolled animal movements and the trade of imported animals can be important factors for the spread of brucellosis. The endemic occurrence of B. melitensis in the Mediterranean basin is a result of socio-historical links between Mediterranean countries. Turkish strains belong to the Eastern Mediterranean line. Eradicating brucellosis in countries of the Mediterranean basin with high prevalence is a demanding need to reduce trade barriers and, more importantly, prevent human suffering

Abstract. In this study, oxidative stability of liver and breast meat, and immune response were evaluated in broiler chickens fed supplemental phytogenic feed additive (PFA) alone or in combination with Bacillus licheniformis. Three experimental groups – control, PFA (60 mg kg−1), and PFA (60 mg kg−1) + 0.5 mg kg−1 B. licheniformis (1.6 × 1012 cfu g−1), each consisting of 5 replicates – were established with 20 one-day-old chickens per replicate (300 birds in total). Growth performance, carcass yield and characteristics, and meat quality remained unaffected. However, supplemental PFA and PFA + B. licheniformis improved the serum biochemistry and jejunal histomorphometry of broiler chickens (P<0.05). PFA and PFA + B. licheniformis groups had lower thiobarbituric acid reacting substances (TBARS) in liver, and freeze–thaw breast meat after 30, 60, and 90 d of storage (P<0.05). PFA and PFA + B. licheniformis supplementation lowered the carbonyl group in fresh and stored breast meat (P<0.05). Antibody titer against infectious bursal disease virus was higher in the PFA + B. licheniformis group than the control group (P<0.05). It can be concluded that PFA or PFA + B. licheniformis in broiler diets improves the health, oxidative stability of liver and breast meat, and immune response of broiler chickens.

Abstract. With more than 15 years of continuous and consistent measurements, the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI) radiance dataset is becoming a reference climate data record. To be exploited to its full potential, it requires a cloud filter that is both accurate, unbiased over the full IASI lifespan, and strict enough to be used in satellite data retrieval schemes. Here, we present a new cloud detection algorithm which combines (1) a high sensitivity, (2) a good consistency over the whole IASI time series and between the different copies of the instrument flying on board the suite of Metop satellites and (3) simplicity in its parametrization. The method is based on a supervised neural network (NN) and relies, as input parameters, on the IASI radiance measurements only. The robustness of the cloud mask over time is ensured in particular by avoiding the IASI channels that are influenced by CO2, N2O, CH4, CFC-11 and CFC-12 absorption lines and those corresponding to the ν2 H2O absorption band. As a reference dataset for the training, the latest version of the operational IASI Level 2 (L2) cloud product is used. We provide different illustrations of the NN cloud product, including comparisons with other existing products. We find a very good agreement overall with the last version of the operational IASI L2 with an identical mean annual cloud amount and a pixel-by-pixel correspondence of about 87 %. The comparison with the other cloud products shows a good correspondence in the main cloud regimes but with sometimes large differences in the mean cloud amount (up to 10 %) due to the specificities of each of the different products. We also show the good capability of the NN product to differentiate clouds from dust plumes.
