Published: November 2023

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, education has undergone a transformation in the learning methods it has carried out so far, from face-to-face to virtual face-to-face or better known as distance learning. Distance learning is a way of independent learning using technology. Usually, this learning method is considered less effective in developing critical thinking skills. Therefore, this study aims to measure the effectiveness of one of the technologies used for distance learning, namely smartphone-based Augmented Reality (AR) in improving critical thinking skills. The subjects involved in this study were second grade vocational high school students in Surakarta with a total sample of 120 students. Furthermore, the true experiment design research method of the Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design was used and the data were collected by studying the observation syntax, while data analysis techniques were conducted by using One-Way ANOVA statistical test. As for the results of this study, namely Surakarta State Vocational School X obtained an average test result in a class that used augmented reality media which was 71.4 points, higher than the class that did not use AR learning media, namely 51.03. The same results were also shown at Surakarta State Vocational School Y, where the class that used augmented reality (AR) media obtained an average test score of 69.47, which was greater than the class that did not use it, that was only 45.67. These results indicate that the use of smartphone-based augmented reality technology is quite effective in developing students’ critical thinking skills in distance learning.

Published: November 2023

This research aims to develop cognitive conflict-based interactive multimedia that is valid, practical, and effective in improving students’ 21st-century skills, known as 4C skills. The development used the Plomp model, with 3 stages: preliminary research, prototyping/development phase, and assessment phase. In preliminary research, teacher questionnaires were used to discover school problems. In the development phase, interactive multimedia prototypes were designed as solutions. At this stage, a validity test was also carried out on the prototype through an expert review by 5 validators. Practicality tests were also carried out through one-to-one and small-group evaluations of 12 students. The instrument of validity and practicality sheets was used at this stage. Experimental research carried out the effectiveness test in the assessment phase 2 sample classes comprising 56 high school students. The 4C skill observation sheet instrument (critical thinking, creativity and innovation, collaboration, and communication) was used at this stage. The data were analyzed by percentage techniques, V-Aiken, N-Gain, and Mann-Whitney tests. The preliminary research results obtained some problems, including low 4C skills, teacher-centered dominant learning, and minimal use of electronic learning media. Interactive multimedia prototypes were designed as solutions. The prototype validity test results were obtained with valid categories. The results of the practicality test at the one-to-one stage and the small group stage obtained scores of 99.2 and 99.4, respectively which are in the very practical category. The results of the effectiveness test based on the N-Gain value inform the improvement of critical thinking skills, and creative thinking is in the high category, while communication and collaboration skills are in the moderate category. Based on the Mann-Whitney U test on all four skills, Sig. (2-tailed) < 0.05 was obtained, which showed a significant effect. In conclusion, cognitive conflict-based interactive multimedia can effectively improve students' 4C skills.

Authors:   Akademi Pengajian Bahasa, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), Malaysia, Zhou Xiaosheng , Goh Ying Soon
Published: November 2023

The Seamless Language Learning (SLL) model holds the potential for enriching second language (L2) learners’ vocabulary acquisition by focusing on their experiences and perceptions. However, prior research on SLL has suffered from methodological issues and poor understanding of the model. This study aims to address these issues by quantitatively assessing the impact of the SLL model on Chinese as a Foreign Language (CFL) learners’ vocabulary acquisition experience, their perceived use of the DingTalk platform, and vocabulary learning enhancement. To achieve these objectives, a design-based research (DBR) approach is employed, with data gathered from real-world seamless Chinese vocabulary learning activities involving 32 intermediate-level participants with no prior exposure to SLL. Data analysis involves a paired sample t-test. Pre-test and post-test assessments, using a five-point Likert scale, are conducted to gauge the effectiveness of the SLL model. The assessment tool, the Seamless Chinese Vocabulary Learning Questionnaire (SCVLQ), encompasses various dimensions such as participants’ emotional engagement, satisfaction, interaction with SLL, perceptions of the SLL platform (DingTalk), and vocabulary learning enhancement through the utilization of the SLL model. Empirical results from valid SCVLQ responses indicate significant post-test improvements compared to pre-tests, indicating enhanced learner experiences and perceptions. Moreover, the SLL model is found to positively contribute to vocabulary learning enhancement. These findings provide quantitative support, addressing the limitations of previous qualitative approaches, and confirming the efficacy of the SLL model in promoting active learning engagement, enhancing learners’ experiences with the DingTalk platform, and facilitating vocabulary acquisition. This study offers insights for future research to delve into additional factors influencing the SLL model’s effectiveness and to extend its application to diverse language learning contexts.

Hybridization of International Terrorism and Transnational Crime at the Present Stage
Authors: Strigunov Konstantin
Published: November 2023

The relevance of research. The issue of systemic hybridization and linkage between international terrorism and transnational crime is one of the topical topics of scientific research in the field of politics, law, and security. There is no consensus among experts on whether certain types of criminal organizations should be classified as terrorist or not. The blurring of the boundaries between these actors makes it difficult to analyze this problem to a certain extent. Of particular interest in the analysis of this issue are drug cartels, since they have power, a transnational scale of activity, and the ability to control vast territories sometimes replacing the state with them. Research novelty. It has been determined under what conditions criminal structures and specifically drug cartels should be equated with terrorist organizations. For the first time we have developed a trilateral continuum "criminal-terrorism-state" on the basis of which the integration between criminal organizations, terrorism, and the state is shown. Goals and objectives of the study. Under what conditions criminal organizations become indistinguishable from terrorist ones. Show the mutual influence of crime, terrorism, and the state on each other. The source base consists of scientific publications (articles, monographs, dissertations) as well as analytical resources and the media. Conclusions. Criminal organizations should be equated with terrorist organizations when the result of their criminal activity causes such damage to the state and its institutions as if they had set themselves political goals. The weaker the state and its institutions the more it integrates with crime and (or) terrorism. At a certain stage there is actually a complete integration of the state and non-state subject as a result of which they become indistinguishable and inseparable from each other.
“There’s an Inspector-General Coming”: Prosopographic Portrait of the Staff of the RSFSR Administrative Justice Authorities during the Great Patriotic War
Authors: Rybakov Vladislav
Published: November 2023

Based on documents from the State Archive of the Russian Federation (GA RF), the article analyzes the educational level, professional experience and party affiliation of operational staff of the RSFSR administrative justice authorities from 1941 to 1945. Using the prosopographic method, it is created a collective portrait of employees who worked in the RSFSR People’s Commissariat for Justice and its regional bodies. The main characteristics of the staff were a low educational level and little professional experience compensated by party affiliation, which played a key role in the Soviet system of appointment to positions. The indicators of professionalism of the average operational employee, including often the inspector who checked the court work, were lower than ones of the average judge. The consequence of this was the inability to provide qualified assistance to judges, which led to disorientation and low quality of court work.
Saxo Grammaticus and His Russian Information
Authors: Antonov Vladislav
Published: November 2023

The paper traces the life path of the medieval Danish historian Saxo Grammaticus and for the first time in historiography examines the information about Russia and Russians (Rus), which are contained in his work “Deeds of the Danes” (“Gesta Danorum”). The author of the paper explores the origin of these news in connection with other sources and facts of Saxo's biography. At the same time, attention is drawn to the methods of work of the Danish historian in different parts of his work. On the whole, it is concluded that the Russian facts of Saxo Grammaticus is an important source regarding the concepts of Russians (Rus) and Russia, which at the turn of the 12—13th centuries were established in Den-mark. At the same time, these concepts indicated their close connection with the oral literature of the northern Germans and with the literary tradition and, in general, with the spiritual trends of the Roma-no-Germanic cultural and historical world.
The Role of the Brazilian Diplomat Oswaldo Euclidis Aragna in Strengthening Pan-American Solidarity and the Anti-Fascist Position of Latin American Countries
Authors: Borzova Alla
Published: November 2023

The article analyzes the role of the famous Brazilian diplomat, Minister of Foreign Affairs (1938—1944) O. Aranha in the choice of allies in a difficult international situation, when in Brazil, as in other countries of Latin America, was growing rivalry between the imperialist American power and the rising Germany. Having shown the main activities of O. Aranha in the position of Ambassador of Brazil to the United States, then Chancellor, to revive the “privileged relations” with Washington, the author notes that the strengthening of the alliance with the United States has exceeded the stage of “equidistance” and “pragmatic balance” of president J. Vargas. The turn in foreign policy leads to an aggravation of relations with Germany, the intensification of Brazil’s actions to consolidate pan-American unity and the transition of countries from a policy of neutrality to a break in diplomatic relations with the Axis countries. The use of the source base (speeches by O. Aranha, declarations of consultative conferences), and scientific literature made it possible to show how Brazil, in the person of O. Aranha, resisted the spread of Nazism and contributed to the development of Pan-Americanism.
Eurymachoi and Leontiadai: “Unknown” Personalities in the Context of the Politics of the Theban Polis
Authors: Mozhajsky Andrej
Published: November 2023

The paper deals with representatives of an influential Theban aristocratic family, whose activities significantly influenced the politics of the Theban policy from the end of the 6th to the 4th centuries BC. The mythological basis of the origin of the significant aristocratic families of Thebes is presented. It is shown that this basis was important for the self-identification of the Theban aristocracy, and it is concluded that the ancestral-mytho-historical ties of the Theban aristocracy with representatives of the aristocracy of other poleis, in particular Sparta, influenced the political decisions of those who were in power in Thebes. On the basis of indirect data of the mytho-historical tradition, a trial hypothesis is put forward that the genus of Eurymachos, according to the ideas of the Thebans, could come from Polyneices.
Erich Apel: Touches to a Historical Portrait
Authors: Yablokov Boris
Published: November 2023

Searching for an optimal model of economic development was one of the central issues of the GDR's development. The economic rivalry with the FRG, which remained the most important factor in the existence of “the first state of workers and peasants on German soil”, made this issue particularly acute. In the 1960s, the GDR leadership made a large-scale attempt to implement a course of reforms aimed at intensifying the planned economy through partial decentralization of certain economic processes and limited use of market elements. The “New Economic System of Planning and Management” proclaimed in 1963 at the 6th Congress of the SED is firmly associated with the name of the party's first secretary, Walter Ulbricht, but would not have been possible without his nomination of a group of practicing economists and technocratic intellectuals to leadership positions. Central among them was Erich Hans Apel, who became head of the GDR State Planning Committee in January 1963 and is considered one of the developers of the concept of the “New Economic System”. This article sketches a historical portrait of Erich Apel during the period of the direct implementation of the reforms on the basis of materials from domestic archives.

Les transformations socio-éducatives que le monde a connues pendant et au lendemain de la Covid-19 ont exigé une nouvelle pensée professionnelle, une grande mobilité des outils numériques, une orientation vers la mise en œuvre des processus de socialisation et de professionnalisation de l'individu, l'humanisation et la démocratisation du processus pédagogique. En effet, l’école est appelée à adapter et repenser sa structure et ses pratiques pour permettre aux individus d’accomplir leurs actuelles et futures fonctions dans la société. À cet égard, les réalisations professionnelles et sociales d'une personne dépendent largement des compétences professionnelles et des compétences de communication en particulier.  Les compétences en communication constituent des compétences importantes des acteurs en action (enseignant et apprenants). Elles assurent l'accomplissement des fonctions de la communication pédagogique, le contenu de l'activité pédagogique et donnent une idée du niveau de culture professionnelle et communicative de ces acteurs éducatifs. L’introduction des outils numériques, didacticiels ou en ligne (plateformes)  dans la communication pédagogique, a généré de nouvelles pratiques et un changement de relation enseignant-apprenant. Dans cette communication, nous étudierons le rapport des TIC à la communication pédagogique à l’ère et post COVID-19, ainsi que la relation enseignant (tuteur) et l’apprenant dans une communication pédagogique médiatisée en classe de langue. Et ce, en s’appuyant sur des enquêtes et des rapports des recherches menées dans le contexte marocain.

A comparative study was made of the electrochemical characteristics of metal hydride (MH) electrodes based on powder compositions of various granulometric characteristics. The electrochemical discharge capacity of the MH electrode has been found to be strongly dependent of the linear grain size of the hydrogen-sorbing alloy and carbonylic nickel. An increase in the dispersity degree of the hydrogen-sorbing alloy powder leads to reduction of the discharge characteristics of the MH electrode. A reverse dependence is observed for carbonylic nickel.

La exclusividad de los derechos de propiedad industrial frente a la terminación unilateral de la licencia
Authors: Miranda Natalia
Published: November 2023

Los derechos de propiedad intelectual son exclusivos para su titular, por lo cual, solo esta persona es la facultada para autorizar que terceros usen y exploten su derecho. La licencia es la forma contractual que por excelencia permite el otorgamiento de tales autorizaciones y por ser un negocio jurídico atípico, su celebración y ejecución se enmarca en una serie de disposiciones y principios que prescriben que los acuerdos no pueden terminarse por la decisión unilateral de las partes. Sin embargo, en Colombia se ha planteado judicialmente una postura contraria, bajo la cual se acepta que la exclusividad por sí misma permite al titular del derecho revocar autorizaciones y con ello finalizar los efectos de la licencia. Ante ello, es pertinente analizar si la especial naturaleza del derecho de PI implica que la licencia se abstraiga de la teoría general del derecho privado.
La propiedad Intelectual como derecho real y de propiedad
Authors: Vega Garcia Paula
Published: November 2023

Los derechos de los creadores se han considerado en España una propiedad especial desde la Ley Calatrava, norma que este año cumple dos siglos desde su aprobación. Se estableció entonces una concepción patrimonialista de los derechos de autor que dura hasta la actualidad, aun cuando en el contexto europeo se tiende a abandonar su estudio como propiedades especiales. Así, por ejemplo, la Unión Europea, en su regulación y en la denominación de alguna de sus instituciones ha adoptado la terminología que considera “propiedad intelectual” a cualquier derecho sobre creaciones inmateriales, sean artísticas o industriales, prefiriendo usar “derecho de autor y conexos” para referirse específicamente a los primeros. Teniendo en cuenta la posible influencia que tenga esta tendencia y, sobre todo, la progresiva separación de los derechos del creador del ámbito de la propiedad, el presente trabajo realiza un repaso comparativo en el seno de la actual regulación española de los derechos reales y, en especial, de la propiedad, y la llamada “propiedad intelectual” con el fin de analizar si es todavía justificable considerar a los derechos del autor como un derecho real de propiedad.

El trabajo aborda la figura del metaverso, último desarrollo de la Internet Web 3.0 y que carece de regulación jurídica completa en la actualidad, pese a la importancia que ha adquirido en los últimos tiempos como escenario en el que se desarrollan no solo actividades de ocio, sino contratos y actividad publicitaria. El trabajo, tras una exposición sobre el origen y evolución del metaverso, analiza cuáles han sido las líneas de actuación del legislador de la UE sobre la materia, ofreciendo un análisis de la principal problemática que se plantea en relación con el uso de marcas en el metaverso por un tercero sin la autorización del titular. Finalmente, el trabajo acaba con una exposición de las posibilidades existentes para solucionar los conflictos que se pueden plantear en el metaverso.
A Delphi Study Using Expert Consensus to Develop a Well-Defined Vision for a Centre of Excellence for Therapeutic Recreation in Continuing Care Settings

Published: November 2023

There is an increasing demand for evidence-based practice and the demonstration of client outcome achievement in therapeutic recreation (TR). There is also an ongoing need to research TR service provision in continuing care settings. The TR profession is well-suited to improving the well-being and quality of life of individuals living in continuing care homes, however, current TR services are not standardized and vary greatly between settings and practitioners. Centres of Excellence (CoE) are organizations that endeavour to establish high standards of practice in a specific profession or area of research. A CoE could be instrumental in improving the delivery of quality TR services in continuing care settings. A Delphi expert consensus method was used to obtain a well-defined vision for a CoE for TR in continuing care settings. Three rounds of online questionnaires were completed over a period of nine weeks by an expert panel of 11 TR professionals working in continuing care settings. The participants reached the consensus that the vision of the CoE should be, “To inspire and advocate for quality TR services in continuing care settings through increased research and evidence-based practice.” The findings from this study contribute to the development of a CoE for TR in continuing care settings. They could also contribute to the development of additional CoEs for TR with other client populations—a topic that has been largely unexplored in the research literature.
Healthy Eating at School: Pedagogical Proposal for the Sixth Year of Primary School
Authors: Carrillo López Pedro José
Published: November 2023

This manuscript describes a pedagogical proposal for the adherence to healthy eating in sixth-grade schoolchildren. The reason for the design lies in the high prevalence of overweight and obesity together with a growing current sedentary lifestyle, aspects that constitute a serious public health problem worldwide with an upward trend and pandemic character. Therefore, we carried out six sessions in which schoolchildren participated in different activities for the knowledge of a varied and balanced Mediterranean diet, as well as for its reflection and practice outside the educational center that allows a greater didactic transposition between the school and the educational center. We are born with a body and it has to last us in good condition for the rest of our lives. For this reason, physical activity practiced regularly and in the appropriate way, together with dietary control, is the best tool available today for the promotion of health and quality of life of school-children. In this sense, acquiring such habits from a young age is not of little importance: It is of absolute importance (Aristotle 384–322 BC).
Enhancing the Legitimacy of High School Physical Education
Authors: Washburn Nicholas
Published: November 2023

Compared to elementary physical education, high school physical education has historically lacked quality. Students struggle to find relevance in the subject, team sports dominate the curriculum, and teachers generally do not actively teach to the extent of their elementary counterparts. Though the need for change has long been acknowledged, substantive change has failed to permeate practice. Indeed, the same issues that plagued high school physical education 30 years ago continue to do so today. This article presents a splintered identity, misaligned curriculum, and a negligible commitment to teaching as fundamental issues that should be addressed if high school physical education is to successfully enhance its status in the eyes of key stakeholders, including students, other teachers, administrators, parents, and policy makers.

Background: Four cultivars of cowpea NCK-15-01, NCK-15-05, NCK-15-08 and NCK-15-09 had been chosen for analysis in experiment. The raw cowpeas have been amassed from Pulse Research Station, Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari. Methods: After collection, samples were analysed under three exceptional processed states like raw, pressure cooking and sprouting. For the study the analysis of variance of the observed data was done using factorial complete randomized design (Factorial concept). The observations for every parameter had been taken with three repetitions. The critical difference at 5% level of the significance was worked out to compare the treatment means. Among the biochemical parameters some nutrient compositions like crude protein, albumin, globulin, prolamine, glutelin, total soluble sugar, crude fat, antioxidant activity, moisture content and crude fiber were analysed using standard methods. Result: The existing study found that, the cultivar NCK-15-09 contained maximum amount of albumin, prolamine, crude fat, antioxidant activity and crude fiber whereas NCK-15-08 showed highest quantity of crude protein and glutelin. NCK-15-05 had highest amount of globulin and NCK-15-01 is the richest cultivar for total soluble sugar, moisture content.The genotype NCK-15-09 confirmed the highest globulin content (4.84%) in sprouting treatment. Among the different cooking methods, the pressure cooking revealed highest crude protein (23.04%), albumin (3.93%), prolamine (4.04%), glutelin (5.41%), total soluble sugar (58.12 mg/g) and moisture content (12.25%). The highest crude fiber content was determined in sprouting (3.39%).

Background: Blood biochemistry and reference intervals assist in distinguishing between healthy and productive camels as well as providing information for nutritional conditions, evaluation and monitoring when they are allowed to browse naturally; nevertheless, these intervals are frequently collected from animals of varying ages. The nutritional condition and biochemical markers of dromedary camels in pastoral systems in southern Ethiopia were investigated in this study, which took season, animal status, age and environmental variables into consideration. Methods: A total of 36 camels were divided into three groups based on their age ( greater than 8 years, 5-8 years, or less than 5 years) and productive state (milking, pregnant and young) in two environments (two herds in arid and semi-arid areas). Blood samples were collected from animals’ neck jugular veins, centrifuged and frozen for analysis. The samples were centrifuged (3000 rpm for 10 min) immediately after their arrival at the laboratory. Serum concentrations of glucose, protein, urea, creatinine, triglycerides and cholesterol were measured using spectrophotometry. Result: This study shows that glucose (91.33+7.30 mg/dl), total protein (7.17+0.15 mg/dl) and triglyceride (75.28+5.38 mg/dl) concentrations were significantly higher (P less than 0.05) during the rainy season, whereas urea (32.06+1.18 mg/l) and creatinine levels were significantly higher during the dry season. The study reveals increased glucose, total protein and triglyceride concentrations in camels during the rainy season, while urea and creatinine levels were higher during the dry season. Arid camels had lower serum concentrations of total protein and urea. Milking and pregnant camels had lower total serum protein, triglyceride and cholesterol levels.
