From Text to Speech: Enhancing EFL Students' Descriptive Speaking Skills through Picture-Guessing Games
Authors: Dinda Maghfhira , Megawati Fika
Published: December 2023

English is a compulsory subject taught at all educational levels in Indonesia. However, many EFL students struggle to achieve fluency in spoken English despite years of study. This disinterest stems from limited enthusiasm and participation. Incorporating innovative media into learning is expected to improve students' speaking skills. Therefore, this research investigates the effect of using pictures in speaking skills development through guessing games. The study employed a quantitative method with a pre-experimental design. A sample of 25 eighth-grade students was selected from a population of 118 at a private school in Sidoarjo. SPSS Version 26 was used to analyze pre- and post-test data. The findings indicate that using pictures in guessing games effectively increased EFL students' speaking abilities, as evidenced by significant score disparities between the pre-test average (11.12) and post-test (16.32). Additionally, the t-count value of 14.066, compared to the t-table value of 2.064 at a 0.05 significance level, suggests a substantial improvement. These results demonstrate that guessing games using pictures significantly enhance student engagement and interest in learning speaking skills. The findings imply that employing pictures in guessing games can potentially enhance student engagement in speaking class activities. Teachers are encouraged to use innovative media to inspire students and enhance their speaking skills.

Mając na względzie konstytucyjne prawo rodziców do wychowania dzieci zgodnie ze swoimi przekonaniami, ale także konstytucyjny obowiązek ochrony dzieci przed demoralizacją, najpierw Rada Ministrów, a następnie grupa posłów na Sejm RP, a w końcu obywatele w liczbie ponad 250 tys. zdecydowali się na inicjatywy ustawodawcze zmierzające do nowelizacji prawa oświatowego w taki sposób, aby zajęcia pozalekcyjne w szkołach były całkowicie transparentne, a przez to decyzje rodziców o udziale ich dzieci w takich zajęciach były całkowicie świadome i odpowiedzialne. Proces legislacyjny obywatelskiego projektu „Chrońmy dzieci. Wspierajmy rodziców” nie został jednak nadal zakończony. Senat w dniu 7 września 2023 r. ustawę tę odrzucił w całości. Z uwagi na to, że obywatelskie projekty ustaw nie podlegają dyskontynuacji prac, toteż uchwałą senacką zajmie się Sejm RP kolejnej kadencji, która rozpoczęła się 13 listopada 2023 r.

Authors: Rongchang Fu , Kun Wang , Hui Wu
Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND: Sand therapy is a non-pharmacological physiotherapy method that uses the natural environment and resources of Xinjiang to treat through the heat transfer and magnetic effects of sand. OBJECTIVE: Employing the two-phase flow-Casson blood flow model, we investigate the mechanism of atherosclerosis prevention via sand therapy, offering a biomechanical theoretical rationale for the prevention of atherosclerosis through sand therapy via the prism of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). METHODS: Sand therapy experiments were conducted to obtain popliteal artery blood flow velocity, and blood was considered as a two-phase flow composed of plasma and red blood cells, and CFD method was applied to analyze the hemodynamic effects of Casson’s blood viscosity model before and after sand therapy. RESULTS: (1) The blood flow velocity increased by 0.24 m/s and 0.04 m/s at peak systolic and diastolic phases, respectively, after sand therapy; the axial velocity of blood vessels increased by 28.56% after sand therapy. (2) The average red blood cell viscosity decreased by 0.00014 Pa ⋅ s after sand therapy. (3) The low wall shear stress increased by 1.09 Pa and the high wall shear stress reached 41.47 Pa after sand therapy. (4) The time-averaged wall shear stress, shear oscillation index and relative retention time were reduced after sand therapy. CONCLUSION: The increase of blood flow velocity after sand therapy can reduce the excessive deposition of cholesterol and other substances, the decrease of erythrocyte viscosity is beneficial to the migration of erythrocytes to the vascular center, the increase of low wall shear stress has a positive effect on the prevention of atherosclerosis, and the decrease of time-averaged wall shear stress, shear oscillation index and relative retention time can reduce the occurrence of thrombosis.

Predicting of spatial electric field generated by substation switch operation based on AOS-GCN-LSTM Model
Authors: Shi Jinpeng , Wang Donglai , Zhao Yan , Li Chengze , Zhang Aijun
Published: December 2023

The radiation of adjacent field sources has a specific spatial correlation. In order to suppress electromagnetic disturbance and improve the electromagnetic compatibility of secondary equipment, the electric field’s spatial coupling characteristics and distribution law should be mastered. Therefore, a method for predicting the spatial electric field generated by substation switching operation based on the Atomic Orbital Search-Graph Convolution Network- Long and Short-Term Memory (AOS-GCN-LSTM) model is presented to deal with this problem. First, the GCN is used to construct graph data according to node characteristics and topology information. The feature selection uses the Maximum Information Coefficient (MIC) to extract the spatial correlation of the adjacent field source radiation. At the same time, the LSTM is used to capture the temporal correlation characteristics of different position field strengths in space. Then, the AOS is used to optimize the model with a hyperparameter. In addition, the simulation data of the full-wave simulation model of the spatial electric field generated by switch operation in a 220 kV GIS substation is an example of verification. The results show that the prediction error of the proposed method is below 3%, and it has strong adaptability to the application environment and good prediction performance.

Theoretical and legal features of key institutions in Municipal Law
Authors: Kolobylina O. O.
Published: December 2023

It has been established that the institutions of Municipal Law are the key elements of the studied branch of law. This is due to the fact that they are more clear, specific and homogeneous regulatory elements with regard to their subject matter, which allows making certain structural and substantive changes to them without affecting other components of the Municipal Law system. The division into institutes helps to group legal norms that are homogeneous in terms of subject matter and methods of regulation, which contributes to a clearer definition of the main directions of the regulatory impact of Municipal Law and ensures more meaningful and efficient regulation of relevant legal relations, as well as the internal integrity and autonomy of the Municipal Law system.

The following are proposed to be classified as the institutions of Municipal Law: general principles of local self-government (constitutional and legal norms); guarantee of local self-government; exercise of power by the people through local self-government bodies; principles of organisation and operation of local self-government entities; local elections and referendums; various forms of direct participation of citizens in resolving local issues; territorial communities; executive bodies of village, town, city, district and city councils; village, town and city heads; institution of representative bodies of local self-government; communal property; local budget and local finance; responsibility of local self-government bodies and officials.

It has been noted that the above-mentioned institutions of Municipal Law are not exhaustive, but they reveal the essence of the relevant branch of law in the most meaningful way. It has been emphasised that an important task of the legislator is to create appropriate legal and organisational conditions for ensuring high-quality and efficient functioning and interaction of all municipal law institutions.
Translational succession
Authors: Slipchenko A. S.
Published: December 2023

The article examines the translational succession. The characteristic features and signs of legal acquisition have been identified. The features of translative succession, modern and most common approaches to its understanding have been considered. A comparison of translative succession and constitutive succession has been made. By identifying such differences, the article outlines the boundaries of the concept of “translative succession”. The method of analysis, synthesis and comparison has been used in the work, which allowed to identify the structural components of succession and to bring them together.

It has been established that legal succession is a transfer of rights and/or obligations from one person to another, which results in a change of the subject of legal relations. It has been found that succession is understood in the same way in many other countries. It has been concluded that the difference between constitutional succession and translative succession lies in the identity or non-identity of the right or obligation of the predecessor and the successor. In the case of translative succession, the right is transferred in full, and in the case of constitutive succession – only partially. The conclusion has been made that in case of translative succession the rights should be transferred only in full.

In general, translative succession as a type of succession is the transfer of rights and/or obligations from one person (predecessor) to another (successor), resulting in the replacement (change) of the subject of legal relations. At the same time, despite the change of the subject, the legal relationship itself as a systemic formation remains unchanged. The article establishes that the obligation which arose during the testator’s lifetime on the basis of a loan agreement and the obligation which was transferred to the heirs as a result of translational succession may not be the same in scope.
Legal status of public control entities over the activities of the National Police in Ukraine
Authors: Doroshenko V. A.
Published: December 2023

The article analyses and clarifies the concept of public control over the activities of the National Police in Ukraine. Public control over the activities of the police is defined as a targeted activity of the organised and unorganised public regarding the quality of police activities and the effectiveness of the tasks and duties assigned to police representatives. The importance of public control over the activities of law enforcement agencies in terms of building a democratic state with an active civil society is emphasised. Public control is an instrument of public assessment of the implementation of public tasks by law enforcement agencies. Control over the activities of the National Police in Ukraine allows to regulate the relationship between the government and the community, which is an integral feature of all democratic states. The specificity of public control, in comparison with other types of control, is the subject-object sphere, which is manifested in the public's control. In the process of public control, the implementation of social tasks directly related to the protection and realisation of the rights and freedoms of citizens, as well as satisfaction and harmonisation of social needs and interests of the population is monitored. The main forms and subjects of public control are defined. Public control over the activities of the National Police can be carried out by individual and collective, organized and unorganized subjects whose activity profile is general or law enforcement oriented. According to their legal status, the subjects of public control over police activities can be natural or legal entities of private law and associations of citizens without the status of a legal entity. Important subjects of public control over the activities of the National Police in Ukraine are mass media, public councils and public organizations. It has been concluded that public control allows to improve the quality of police activities and to influence the implementation of changes in the activities of the National Police in Ukraine, which is especially important during a full-scale war.

Objective: hiking allows us to appreciate nature; it is also an environmental education tool, causing social changes which can be directed towards behaviors and decisions in favor of environmental protection. The objective of this study was to generate the necessary information in order to hike the trails of the Xihuingo Volcano (state of Hidalgo, Mexico), self-guided and with safety.Design/Methodology/Approach: the methodology consisted of monitoring the guidelines established for the preparation of the Topographic guide, as well as those considered in the Excursion information method (MIDE) and the processing of tracks with global positioning system (GPS) receivers, using a geographic information system as interface.Results: data on local history, culture and biodiversity were obtained. As well as descriptions, time estimates, and profiles of the routes; with the identification of places of interest in maps; and digital files to be used in GPS receivers.Limitations of the study/Implications: the limitations in the data are related to the precision margin of the GPS receivers during the recording of the information (±3 m). As well as the number of records on biodiversity at the time of consultation.Findings/Conclusions: data obtained highlight the wide biological diversity located at the site, with important representation of endemic and native species, some of them in status of ecological risk. These species can be the basis for the creation of a tourism project for the benefit of the local people. Such a program would face the ecological problems derived from mining, illegal logging, and grazing observed in the area, as a strategy for the conservation of the natural environment.

Published: December 2023

Objective: To analyze the population’s perception of recent changes in climate patterns and the actions they have taken to adapt to these changes in the El Saltillo community, Municipality of Jilotepec.Design/methodology/approach: A survey was carried out between September and October 2022, answered online. Social networking and WhatsApp groups were used to disseminate the invitation to participate in the Survey; 96 responses were received, of which 30 were answered on site together with the respondent. Aspects such as socioeconomic data, conceptualization and perception of climate change and adaptability actions were measured.Results: All the survey respondents mentioned that they perceive strong changes in droughts and frosts inthe last 10-15 years. Of them, 96% stated that they had heard the term climate change in different media; however, it is not a concept that is used to explain the changes that take place in the community. As a result of these changes, the population has chosen to build or enlarge rainwater container mounds for agricultural and livestock use, improve the physical condition of the stables, and begin to use precocious corn seed or more adapted varieties of improved corn.Limitations on study/implications: The application of surveys online is a feasible and economical option that implies the need to implement data validation, control and verification mechanisms, as well as sampling  of the results.Findings/conclusions: Adaptation strategies to climate change were identified, showing that they are not spontaneous actions and that they have emerged empirically through daily contact with the phenomenon.

Published: December 2023

Objective: To carry out the morphological characterization of Heliconia uxpanapensis x Heliconia latispatha var. Scarlet for varietal registration purposes.
Design, Methodology and Approximation:
By means of rhizomes division of 71-1 plant from a plot of H. uxpanapensis x H. latispatha segregant plants (F2), twelve plants (tillers) were generated, planted, and cultivated in open field under 30% of natural shade. Morphological characterization was methodic conducted using the Technical Guide descriptors for Heliconias designed by the National Seed Inspection and Certification Service (SNICS, 2023).
Results: Morphological characters of the clones from the 71-1 segregant plant, tested with the SNICS Technical Guide descriptors, were constant so that a differentiation could be make between the Scarlet and Karely, a reference variety found in the Guide. Scarlet variety’s primary distinctive characteristics are the red color, high brilliance, and the revolute-involute margins of their bracts. Their inflorescence morphological characteristic suggest they can be cultivated for cut flower and gardening. 
Study limitations and implications: In order for Scarlet variety express, their characteristics of intense color and bracts brightness, they have to be cultivated under 30% of shade.
Findings and conclusions: Based on the Technical Guide descriptors for heliconias varietal description (SNICS, 2023), the Scarlet variety differentiates from the Karely (reference variety) as it presents a stability-distinction-homogeneity. For this reason, the varietal registration seems appropriate.

Published: December 2023

The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of treatment, temperature and time using the minimum growth technique under in vitro conditions on stems with a length of 2 mm of Solanum quitoense. There were 8 treatments with different concentrations of mannitol, sucrose and Murashige and Skoog(1962) (0 ,5g L-1, 10 g L-1, 15 g L-1, 20 g L-1, 25 g L-1, 30 g L-1,30 g L-1), the experiments were placed in a room at 25 ºC and another at 21 ºC, the growth of the stem was recorded every fifteen days. The Generalized Linear Model showed that the treatments with the best results were those using 20 g L -1 and 30 g L-1 of mannitol in S. quitoense, which reduced in vitro growth in a remarkable way, preserving the characteristics of subsistence and vigor at a temperature of 21 ºC, while the applied concentrations of sucrose promoted rapid growth of the stem and shoots

Published: December 2023

Objective: To analyze the molecular docking of secondary metabolites of soursop on the enzyme markers of breast cancer.
Design/Methodology/Approach: Crystals of PARP2 and PRMT5 enzymes were obtained from RCSB-PDB. Both crystals were processed using bioinformatic tools (e.g., SWISS-MODEL, UCSF-Chimera, and ScanProsite), prior to molecular docking and dynamics. The Annona muricata L. metabolites were obtained from Pubchem for their use in several in silico analysis. The Autodock algorithm was used to obtain the molecular docking. Once the most stable conformations were obtained for the ligands of each enzyme, their complexes were subjected to 10 ns of molecular dynamics using GROMACS. Meanwhile, the HPF1-PARP2 and the MEP50-PRMT5 heterodimeric interactions were carried out using the HDOCK server. Finally, the possible biotransformation reactions were studied using QSAR models.
Results: The kaempferol-3-O-rutinoside metabolite showed potential biopharmaceutical use as an inhibitor of the PARP2 enzyme. The coreximin ligand showed potential biopharmaceutical use as an inhibitor of the PRMT5 enzyme. The inhibitor impacted the PRMT5-MEP50 interaction. The QSAR models indicated that methylation, O-glucuronidation, and O-dealkylation were the most likely biotransformation reactions among the metabolites with the highest degree of inhibition.
Study Limitation/Implications: in silico analysis on inhibition of key proteins.
Findings/Conclusions: The kaempferol-3-O-rutinoside chemical compound showed potential as a PARP2 inhibitor. The coreximin chemical compound showed potential as a PRMT5 inhibitor. The protein-protein interaction between PRMT5 and MEP50 was impacted by the inhibitor; however, this was not the case with the PARP2 enzyme.

Published: December 2023

Objective: The present study aimed to carry out the analysis of the physical and physiological quality of soursop seeds, since there is very little information on the subject. Design/ Methodology/ Approach: The material was collected at physiological maturity. The seeds were extracted from fruits in commercial maturity. They were subjected to a physical and physiological quality analysis: physical purity, humidity content of the seed, weight of 1000 seeds, integrity test of the seed with the X-ray equipment, evaluation of germination and the evaluation of viability by the tetrazolium method. A completely randomized experimental design was used in all the physical quality variables and tetrazolium tests. Other hand, a completely randomized factorial design (3x7) was used in the germination evaluation. Results: The viability results obtained by the tetrazolium method showed over 59% viable seeds, while in the germination test with the germinative pretreatments only 11.33% germination was obtained in the seeds from which the cover was removed. Findings/ Conclusions: Therefore, it was concluded that the moment of obtaining the plant material is important for its germination.

Published: December 2023

Objective: To assess a temporary immersion system for the in vitro propagation of Agave potatorum Zucc., compared with the traditional micropropagation technique that uses a solid medium. Design/Methodology/Approach: The effect of treatments in a solid medium with low and high doses of the BA (Benzylaminopurine) growth regulator (0.5 mg L-1 and 2 mg L-1) on the number of sprouts per explant was assessed in a first phase. Since the best treatment was 2 mg L-1 of BA, three forms of propagation were considered: solid medium, liquid medium in a paper bridge, and liquid medium in a temporary immersion system. Results: From the initial test, an average of 6.6 shoots per explant were obtained with 2 mg L-1 of BA. Regarding the different systems, the solid medium, the paper bridge, and the temporary immersion system recorded 6.4, 7.2, and 14.4 shoots per explant, respectively. Findings/Conclusions: Mass sprout production is higher in the temporary immersion system, as a consequence of the use of a liquid medium that increases the absorption of nutrients and regulators, combined with the injection of air with oxygen that can accelerate cellular processes.
