Focus on Policy: Children’s Literature in a Testing Time
Authors: Lehman Barbara A.
Published: March 2024

This article provides a background on research and government policy that has shaped the parameters of thinking about literature in and across the curriculum. The author calls for all who value children’s literature to learn from different perspectives and try to understand each other’s language when talking about literature and literacy in order to identify useful similarities from which we can build a strong theoretical rationale for literature as the content of reading.
Discipline and Play with/in a Mandated Literacy Curriculum
Authors: Siegel Marjorie , Kontovourki Stavroula
Published: March 2024

In this article, the authors explore a young child’s lived experience of discipline and play with/in a mandated balanced literacy curriculum. Mandating balanced literacy presents an interesting case of disciplining literacy because it is rooted in the progressive tradition of meaning-and-process pedagogies. As such, it avoids the most obvious forms of regulation and control found in scripted lessons, yet imposes particular meanings of literacy, teaching, and learning on teachers and children. Drawing on data from a year-long inquiry of one kindergarten classroom, the authors demonstrate how the mandated curriculum disciplined Hector and his teacher but also how they played with/in this curriculum. The slash between serves to highlight the fact that Hector never escaped the limits of the mandated curriculum. Sometimes he was the curriculum, so fully disciplined by it that he sought out recognition as a successful reader and writer. Other times, he played within the spaces made available by independent reading and writing time. In these cases, he untethered school literacy from its individualistic and monomodal roots, but his play remained the bounds of the curricular routines. The fluency with which Hector shifted from a writer at play to a student at work points to the complexities of policy mandates and their enactment in classrooms. (210 words)
Focus on Policy: Standing Up to Neoliberalism through Critical Literacy Education
Authors: Rogers Rebecca , Mosley Melissa , Folkes Angela
Published: March 2024

Strains on the global economy and an imminent recession in the U.S. offer a particularly ripe moment for educators to raise questions about educational reform, the world of schooling, and the kinds of literacy practices that will prepare students for their lives as citizens in a world structured through the social and economic relations of Neoliberalism. In this article, we demonstrate how we center class struggle and analysis at the heart of our teaching and research through two vignettes’one from a second-grade classroom and one from an ESOL adult education classroom. These projects arose from our collaborative work with the teacher activist group to which we belong, the Literacy for Social Justice Teacher Research Group.

Focus on Policy: For the Sake of Heaven: Locating Standards
Authors: Block Alan A.
Published: March 2024

This essay addresses issues central to educational discourse in the United States by calling on texts and forms of inquiry generally unfamiliar and often unrecognized in current conversations regarding schooling and education, the Jewish tradition of Talmudic studies. Although Rabbis in this tradition never doubted the necessity of standards, their advocacy of them in the Talmudic context offers a perspective distinct from that prevalent in our current, often contentious, conversations. The essay contains a brief history of the idea of curricular standards and some thoughts about what it means, as suggested by the issue theme, to “locate” standards.
Children’s Literature Reviews: Books That Set Their Own Standards
Authors: Price-Dennis Detra , Beierle Marlene , Chase Maggie , Hye Son Eun , Wissman Jackie
Published: March 2024

Quality children’s literature is at the cornerstone of any thriving classroom. Literature that is beautifully written, with multidimensional characters who invite the reader into their lives to laugh, cry, and dream with them, should line the shelves of every classroom library. For this themed issue of Language Arts, Locating Standards, we have compiled a list of award winning children’s literature that exceeds curriculum standards, and embodies characteristics that raise the literary imagination. We selected books that defy the standards, thus crafting a collective set of their own. We compiled titles from the Caldecott, Coretta Scott King, Geisel, Jane Addams, Newbery, Pura Belpre, Schneider, Tomas Riviera, and award lists from 2007-2009. We then cross checked our list with books that were already reviewed for Language Arts volume 86-87, as not to publish multiple reviews for the same book.
Beyond Picture Walks: Revaluing Picturebooks as Written and Pictorial Texts
Authors: Maderazo Catherine , Martens Prisca , Croce Keri , Martens Ray , Doyle Michelle , Aghalarov Stacy , Noble Rob
Published: March 2024

This article shares findings from a collaborative, qualitative research project investigating what happens to first and third graders’ comprehension of picturebooks if we intentionally teach them the language of art Elements of Art and Principles of Design. Work with the art teacher and two classroom teachers transformed the traditional picture walk and art lessons into authentic art and literacy engagements with picturebooks, empowering the students as readers and deepening their thinking. It is time to rethink traditional methods/strategies to revalue the written text and pictorial text.
Research Directions: Technologies and Truth Games: Research as a Dynamic Method
Authors: Hassett Dawnene D.
Published: March 2024

This article offers a way of thinking about literacy instruction that critiques current reasoning, but also provides a space to dynamically think outside of prevalent practices. It presents a framework for both planning and studying literacy pedagogy that combines a practical everyday model of the reading process with Michel Foucault’s (1988c) theoretical concepts of technologies and truth games. This combined framework is used to upset some of the reasoning that binds our practice regarding texts, methods, and student outcomes. A few examples of research questions are considered, with the understanding that individual teachers and researchers will have other ways of pushing the boundaries based on the issues that concern them the most. The article concludes with a discussion of how this type of research can be used as a dynamic method for classroom change.

Correlation Of Placental Changes With Fetal And Maternal Outcome In Mothers With Hypertensive Disorders Of Pregnancy
Authors:   Assistant Professor, Department Of OBG, SUT Academy Of Medical Sciences, Trivandrum, Kerala, India, Vijayakumar Shilpa , Salim Simmi ,   Professor, Department Of OBG, SUT Academy Od Medical Sciences, Trivandrum, Kerala,
Published: March 2024

Hypertension represents one of the most prevalent complications encountered during pregnancy, significantly contributing to both maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. The placenta, acting as a crucial feto-maternal organ, plays a pivotal role in sustaining pregnancy and fostering the healthy development of the fetus. Notably, the weight of the placenta holds functional importance, as it correlates with the villous surface area and fetal metabolism. Motivated by this context, the present study endeavors to examine the morphological and histological alterations in the placenta associated with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and to assess their correlation with maternal and fetal outcomes. Methods: A prospective investigation encompassing 120 cases was conducted, comprising 60 normotensive mothers (Group A) and 60 mothers with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (Group B). Placental specimens obtained from these participants were subjected to morphological and histological analyses, with subsequent correlation with maternal and fetal outcomes. Results: Our findings revealed a notable reduction in placental weight and dimensions within Group B compared to Group A. Histopathological examination unveiled a significant increase in the incidence of syncytial knots, fibrinoid necrosis, hyalinization, and calcification in placentas from the hypertensive group, directly correlating with neonatal complications. Furthermore, the mean neonatal birth weight was significantly higher in Group A compared to Group B. Conclusion: Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy exert a substantial impact on placental morphology, leading to diminished weight and dimensions, indicative of placental insufficiency attributable to compromised utero-placental blood flow. These alterations ultimately influence neonatal weight and overall neonatal outcomes. Our study underscores the presence of distinct morphological changes in the placenta that detrimentally affect fetal growth.

Variabilidad espacial y temporal de la cobertura vegetal del Cantón Montecristi, Provincia de Manabí (Período 2010 – 2021)
Authors: Barragán Triana Karla Sara , Mieles Giler Jorge Washington
Published: March 2024

El comportamiento humano en relación con el uso del suelo suele tener efectos negativos sobre este recurso, resultando en la pérdida de fertilidad y su degradación. Esto, a su vez, conlleva a una disminución de la cobertura vegetal. Se utilizaron cuatro imágenes Landsat 7 correspondientes a los años 2010, 2015, 2020 y 2021. Los resultados obtenidos revelan que los valores del Índice de Vegetación de Diferencia Normalizada (NDVI) presentan tendencias similares en las coberturas de los años 2015 a 2021. En este análisis, se destaca la presencia de vegetación escasa y dispersa. En 2015, esta categoría experimentó un aumento del 0,98% en comparación con 2010, totalizando aproximadamente 28,866.9 hectáreas y abarcando una extensión total de 72,964.76 hectáreas. Sin embargo, aún se encuentra a solo 4,437 hectáreas de cubrir toda la extensión territorial estudiada. La tasa de pérdida más significativa se observa en 2015, con un -9.6% de vegetación densa. Se evidencia que la presión de las actividades humanas sobre la cobertura del suelo ha generado un aumento considerable de la vegetación escasa y dispersa. El análisis espacial permitió identificar las áreas con reducción o aumento durante los años de estudio.
ПОНЯТТЯ ТА ЗМІСТ СЛУЖБОВО-БОЙОВОЇ ДІЯЛЬНОСТІ НАЦІОНАЛЬНОЇ ГВАРДІЇ УКРАЇНИ
Authors: Кобзар Олександр
Published: March 2024

У статті проаналізовано основні понятійно-категоріальні особливості інституту службово-бойової діяльно- сті Національної гвардії України та запропоновано до обговорення коло основних проблемних питань, що з ними пов’язуються. Установлено, що Національна гвардія України є одним із військових формувань з правоохоронними функціями, діяльність якого спрямовується Міністром внутрішніх справ. Попри таку субординаційну підпоряд- кованість цивільним інституціям, статус особи, яка проходить службу у гвардії, характеризується як військова служба. Це дає підстави для характеристики відповідного інституту на основі поняття та змісту службово- бойової діяльності.

Доведено, що категорія «службово-бойова діяльність Національної гвардії України» має декілька аспектів, оскільки й відповідна категорія складається з двох дефініцій – «службова діяльність» та «бойова діяльність», що синергетично взаємодоповнюють одна одну. Водночас звертається увага на те, що не всі в Національній гвардії України здійснюють саме бойову діяльність в широкому розумінні відповідного поняття.

Обґрунтовано позицію про те, що службово-бойова діяльність Національної гвардії України є одним із клю- чових напрямів роботи, найпріоритетнішим серед інших, котрий безпосередньо кореспондується із завданнями, функціями та повноваженнями відповідного органу державної влади.

Досягнуто також висновку про те, що зміст службово-бойової діяльності Національної гвардії України поля- гає в здійсненні всіх, передбачених нормативно-правовими актами вимог і приписів, які регламентують проход- ження служби в гвардії, а також виконання нею бойових завдань. Водночас узагальнено, що відповідна категорія є інститутом у системі науки і має міжгалузевий характер, оскільки самостійна галузь, що має відповідну назву, кореспондується з дослідженнями юристів і правників у межах галузі права на основі забезпечення функціонуван- ня інституту службово-бойової діяльності в межах і відповідно до законодавства України.
MOTIVATIONAL ASPECT OF LEARNING A FOREIGN LANGUAGE IN UNIVERSITIES WITH SPECIAL CONDITIONS OF STUDY IN MARTIAL LAW
Authors: Бунечко Артур
Published: March 2024

Зміна пріоритетів щодо важливості знань у різних сферах навчального процесу та посилений психологічний вплив на учасників навчального процесу послабили вплив внутрішніх та зовнішніх мотиваційних чинників курсантів щодо вивчення іноземної мови.
Враховуючи втрату внутрішньої мотивації здобувачами вищої освіти, задля відновлення інтересу вивчення іноземної мови на немовних військових факультетах викладачі адаптували тематику, форми та методи навчання. Це дало новий поштовх до вивчення іноземної мови та відновлення внутрішніх мотивуючих чинників курсантів.
У статті розглядаються деякі шляхи підвищення мотивації до вивчення іноземної мови здобувачами вищої освіти немовних факультетів у вищому навчальному закладі зі спеціальними умовами навчання в умовах воєнного стану. Окреслено основні особливості навчального процесу в закладах вищої освіти зі спеціальними умовами навчання, а також відмінності навчального процесу в порівнянні з іншими закладами вищої освіти. Надано визначення мотивації, як психолого-педагогічного явища відповідно до останніх наукових досліджень з цієї теми. Наведено основні види мотивації, їх класифікація та вплив на навчальний процес. Запропоновано основні характерні риси змін мотиваційного аспекту вивчення іноземної мови в умовах воєнного часу. Описано можливі шляхи підвищення мотивації вивчення іноземної мови курсантами вищих навчальних закладів з особливими умовами навчання та шляхи вдосконалення мотиваційного аспекту щодо розвитку мовленнєвих навичок майбутніх спеціалістів. Визначено ключові проблеми підвищення мотивації курсантів під час проведення занять з іноземної мови та основні способи їх вирішення в процесі викладання іноземної мови. Окреслено шляхи та напрям подальшого дослідження.

У статті проаналізовано поняття наукового супроводження, визначено його сутність і зміст. Запропоновано авторський підхід до визначення терміну «наукове супроводження», виокремлено його основні складники (етапи). На прикладі Київського інституту НГУ розглянуто процес наукового супроводження впровадження бойового досвіду в освітній процес ВВНЗ на кожному з етапів. Використано комплекс загальнонаукових методів проведення дослідження, а саме: метод аналізу та синтезу; наукової абстракції; узагальнення; порівняння; систематизації. Сформульовано основні напрями подальших наукових досліджень та перспективні підходи щодо вдосконалення методики впровадження бойового досвіду в освітній процес ВВНЗ.
Local Government Administration and the Challenges of Bureaucratic Professionalism in Nigeria: A Study of Transition Committee in Local Government Councils in Anambra State (2015 to 2022)
Authors: Udegbunam Dr. Victor E.
Published: March 2024

The democratic essence of governance is expressed and most often experienced at the grass root. The instrument of government that conveys this is the local government through sound bureaucratic experts. But it appears that the introduction of the Transition Committee has encouraged the rescinding of bureaucratic professionalism in local government administration in Nigeria. This paper becomes imperatively tasked with ascertaining the impact of Transition Committee on bureaucratic professionalism in local government councils in Anambra State. Following this, two research questions were adopted to guide the study. First, does the introduction of Transition Committee down played bureaucratic professionalism in local government administration in Anambra State? Secondly, what factors attributed to Transition Committee are responsible for low performance of local government administration in Anambra State? Data were primarily sourced and complimented with secondary source precisely academic journals and government gazettes. Bureaucratic theory was used as relevant tool of analysis. From the study, it was discovered that majority of the members of Transition Committee in local government councils are people of poor academic qualifications with little or no bureaucratic knowledge. These personalities exhibit administrative rascality in their dealings with career civil servants and bureaucratic ignorance in the discharge of their functions. These have adversely affected bureaucratic professionalism in local government administration in Anambra State. Hence, the study recommends total administrative and financial independence in the local government councils by abrogating transition committee in local government.
An Alternative Mechanism to Interest Proposed to Achieve Efficient Monetary Capital Allocation in the Islamic Economy
Authors: Abul Fotouh Nagah Abdul Alim Abdul Wahab
Published: March 2024

Economic systems aim to achieve efficiency in allocating resources, and this requires setting prices that reflect the true scarcity of these resources. Among these resources is monetary capital, and the question arises about how to achieve the efficiency of monetary capital in the Islamic economic system in which interest is not supposed to exist as it is a form of usury that is forbidden in this system. This research proposes an alternative to interest that is consistent with the value provisions of the Islamic system and can be used to achieve an efficient allocation of monetary capital in this system. The result of the search was the Islamic economic system can achieve an efficient allocation of monetary capital without the need for an interest rate by developing allocation mechanisms that are compatible with its value provisions.

Variations of physical and mechanical properties of concrete with the height
Authors: Sadoun Mohamed , Zemri Cheikh , Benmahdi Khaled , Rahal Nacer
Published: March 2024

Introduction/purpose: Concrete, mortar, and cement pastes are materials that have become central in various fields of construction, structures, and civil engineering. About 7 billion cubic meters of concrete are implemented. Concrete is generally considered a homogeneous material, but that is not always the case given its rheological behavior, which can be due to heterogeneous phenomena of segregation and bleeding. Methods: The study tested a concrete column's physical and mechanical characteristics and deformation in elevation. The tests included measuring absolute and apparent density, porosity, capillary absorption, permeability, speed of propagation, compressive strength, and static and dynamic modulus of elasticity. For this purpose, the standards of non-destructive testing (sclerometer, ultrasound, etc.) were used to take the average of a series of points located at different levels of the element to be tested. Results: The results indicate that changes in the column's height affect its physical and mechanical properties, either increasing or decreasing them (such as porosity, absorbency, permeability, compressive strength, and the static and dynamic modulus of elasticity). These changes are influenced by various factors, including the inherent properties of the concrete implementation (such as vibration and curing) and the climate conditions during construction. Conclusion: The findings of this study emphasize the importance of a nuanced approach to testing and evaluating variations in concrete properties by taking into account the multifaceted impact of changes in column height.
Dominance number on cyclooctane chains
Authors: Mihajlov-Carević Miroslava
Published: March 2024

Introduction/purpose: Chemical structures are conveniently represented by graphs where atoms are nodes (vertices) and chemical bonds are branches (lines) in the graph. A graphical representation of a molecule provides a lot of useful information about the chemical properties of the molecule. It is known that numerous physical and chemical properties of molecules are highly correlated with theoretical invariants of graphs, which we call topological indices. One such theoretical invariant is the dominance number. The aim of this research is to determine the k-dominance number for cyclooctane chains 𝐶𝑂𝐶𝑛 1 , 𝐶𝑂𝐶𝑛 2 , 𝐶𝑂𝐶𝑛 3 and 𝐶𝑂𝐶𝑛 4 , for k ∈ {1,2,3}, n ∈ 𝑁. Methods: The cyclooctane chain is a chain of octagons connected by a single line. The vertices of the octagon are treated as nodes of the graph, and the sides and the line connecting them, as branches in the graph. Using mathematical methods, k-dominance was determined on one octagon, k∈{1,2,3}. Then, by representing the cyclooctane chains 𝐶𝑂𝐶𝑛 1 , 𝐶𝑂𝐶𝑛 2 , 𝐶𝑂𝐶𝑛 3 and 𝐶𝑂𝐶𝑛 4 , in a convenient, isomorphic way, we determined their k-dominance number, k∈{ 1,2,3}. Results: Determining k-dominance, k∈{1,2,3}, for 4 cyclooctane chains 𝐶𝑂𝐶𝑛 1 , 𝐶𝑂𝐶𝑛 2 , 𝐶𝑂𝐶𝑛 3 and 𝐶𝑂𝐶𝑛 4 , we obtained 12 different formulas to calculate their k-dominance number. All formulas are composed of several alternative algebraic expressions, the selection of which is conditioned by the divisibility of the number n by the number 2, 3 or 4, depending on the type of cyclooctane chain and k-dominance to be determined. The results of the research are fully presented in the paper through mathematically proven theorems and graphical representations. Conclusion: The results show that the k-dominance numbers, k∈{1,2,3}, on cyclooctane chains 𝐶𝑂𝐶𝑛 1 , 𝐶𝑂𝐶𝑛 2 , 𝐶𝑂𝐶𝑛 3 and 𝐶𝑂𝐶𝑛 4 , are determined and explicitly expressed by mathematical expressions. They also indicate the possibility of their application in molecular graphs of cyclooctane rings, in computational chemistry, chemical and biological industry.

Banyak program pemerintah pusat memberikan ruang pada desa untuk mengembangkan potensi yang ada melalui kewenangan dalam pengelolaan desa secara mandiri. Salah satu program pemerintah dalam upaya meningkatkan kemandirian desa yang dapat meningkatkan kesejahteraan masyarakatnya adalah melalui progam pendirian BUMDes (Badan Usaha Milik Desa).  Potensi dan Kebutuhan desa menjadi landasan BUMDes membuat program kerja. Desa Buncitan Kecamatan Sedati Kabupaten Sidoarjo menjadi lokasi pelaksanaan Pengabdian Pada Masyarakat karena mempunyai beberapa potensi berupa lahan BUMDes yang luas yang bisa dikembangkan sebagai usaha mendukung kegiatan BUMDes berupa fasilitas bidang usaha. Metode yang digunakan dalam pengabdian ini adalah sosialisasi tentang BUMDes dan penyebaran kuisioner kepada apparat pemerintahan desa dan pengelola BUMDes. Hasil identifikasi potensi yang diharapkan adalah berupa pembukaan lahan untuk kegiatan kuliner berupa rumah makan dengan konsep back to nature serta bisnis kolam pemancingan yang sekarang ini marak di lingkungan perkotaan. Bentuk partisipasi masyarakat untuk memperkuat BUMDes adalah ide/gagasan, tenaga, dan keterampilan.

This research aims to analyze the environmental conditions inside and outside the Statiko Coffee Shop, Wonosobo, Indonesia, with a focus on noise, light intensity, air temperature, and humidity. Measurements were carried out at certain time intervals starting from 15:00 to 23:00. The collected data shows significant variations in each observed parameter. Indoors, noise levels varied, light intensity was recorded, air temperature fluctuated, and humidity ranged from 78.0% to 85.0%. Outdoors, wider variations in noise, light intensity, air temperature, and humidity were seen. The results of this research show the importance of good understanding and design regarding ventilation and environmental management to create comfort for visitors in a coffee shop. This information can be used as a basis for designing an effective ventilation system and maintaining good indoor air quality, as well as considering external environmental influences such as noise and light intensity. Further research is needed to provide more specific recommendations for optimizing the environment at the Statiko Coffee Shop, Wonosobo, Indonesia.
Assessing seismic risk in the built environment of Istanbul: High-resolution hazard mapping and ground motion analysis in the sea of Marmara region
Authors: Kalkan Erol , Gülkan Polat
Published: March 2024

This research scrutinizes the seismic threat looming over Istanbul, potentially subject to a substantial earthquake. We analyze six plausible earthquake scenarios, utilizing six ground motion prediction equations (GMPEs), to forge high-resolution seismic hazard maps. These maps reveal not only peak horizontal ground accelerations but also spectral acceleration values across varying temporal frames, integrating the amplification effects of softer sediments. Our approach delineates that Istanbul’s western shoreline faces heightened risk, with median spectral accelerations at 0.3 s approaching 1 g, signifying intense shaking potential. In contrast, the area encompassing the financial district exhibits lower values, around 0.3 g. The granularity of these findings lays bare the seismic vulnerabilities of the region, offering a window into the risks and potential damages facing this bustling metropolis. This enhanced understanding paves the way for strategic urban planning and risk mitigation efforts aimed at safeguarding Istanbul’s populace and infrastructure. This article succinctly condenses our study’s pivotal conclusions, presenting a clarion call for proactive measures to diminish earthquake impacts on this dynamic urban landscape.

This is an extremely rare complicated presentation of acute appendicitis perforation, which was accompanied by an intra-abdominal hemorrhage from an ileocolic vessel. A 61-year-old man visited an emergency department complaining of abdominal pain. Tenderness & rebound tenderness at the right lower quadrant and muscle guarding were noticed. Computed tomography showed perforated appendicitis with peritonitis. Also, an intra-abdominal hemorrhage of the ileocolic vessel was suggested. An emergent laparoscopic exploration was performed and found a gangrenous retrocecal appendix, peri-lesional adhesion, and substantial hematoma. Finally, a partial cecectomy was performed. A pathologic test confirmed the acute gangrenous appendicitis. Physicians should be aware that appendicitis could complicate an intra-abdominal hemorrhage even though it is extremely rare.ackground.
Bar oder mit Karte?

Mit der sogenannten Bezahlkarte will der Gesetzgeber ein neues Kapitel aufschlagen, um (vermeintlichen) Pull-Faktoren entgegenzuwirken und existenzsichernde Sozialleistungen für Asylsuchende einzuschränken. Dazu hat sich die Bundesregierung letzte Woche darauf verständigt, das Asylbewerberleistungsgesetz zu ändern. Doch einige der aktuell diskutierten Bezahlkartenmodelle werden verfassungsrechtlichen Vorgaben nicht gerecht: Es droht eine Verletzung des Grundrechts auf Gewährleistung eines menschenwürdigen Existenzminimums.

The present study was conducted at farmers fields of Adilabad district, Telangana state, India during kharif seasons of 2019 to 2021 (for 3 seasons) to appraise the effect of mechanization on soybean yield as well as economics. In this study, sowing by tractor operated seed cum fertilizer drill and harvesting by combined harvester was compared with the farmer’s practice (Bullock drawn seed drill sowing and manual harvesting and threshing). In comparison to the conventional method, the sowing of soybean with tractor operated seed cum fertilizer drill and harvesting with combined harvester found to be superior in seed yield and average soybean productivity with mechanization was 1870 kg ha-1, with a yield increase of 2.20% over conventional method of sowing (1830 kg ha-1). Similarly, the economics of soybean were found to be highest with mechanization in terms of gross returns (Rs 79064 ha-1) and net returns (Rs 52464 ha-1) with a B:C ratio of 2.97:1 compared to conventional method which generated the gross returns of Rs. 77150 ha-1 and net returns of Rs 46966 ha-1 with a B:C ratio of 2.56:1.
