Математикалық сауаттылықты дамыту, әсіресе ықтималдық және статистика саласында, оқушылар үшін аса қажетті дағды болып табылады. Алайда, оқыту процесін тиімді ұйымдастыру үшін ғылыми-әдістемелік негіздің жеткіліксіздігі – бұл мәселенің күрделілігін көрсетеді.Математикалық және қолданбалы көзқарас тұрғысынан жаңа материалдарды енгізу, оқушылардың ықтималдық-статистикалық ойлауды дамытуына ықпал етуі мүмкін. Бірақ мұндай материалдардың практикалық қолдануымен бірге оқыту стратегиялары мен әдістемелерін де жетілдіру қажет. Уақыт қажеттілігіне байланысты математикалық сауаттылық конструктивті қызығушылығы мол және ой толғайтын тұлға болу үшін де керек.Сондықтан, ғылыми зерттеулер мен тәжірибелер жүргізу арқылы оқыту үдерісін тиімді ұйымдастырудың жолдарын табу, мәселенің шешімін іздеуге көмектеседі. Мысалы, оқушылардың қызығушылығын арттыру үшін ойындар, жобалар мен зерттеу жұмыстарын енгізу, сонымен қатар шынайы өмірден алынған мысалдар арқылы ықтималдық пен статистиканы түсінуді жеңілдету мүмкіндіктері қарастырылатын болады. Бұл адамдарға математиканың әлемде қандай рөл атқаратынын мойындатуға, сындарлы, қызығушылығы мол және сыни ойлай алатын азаматтарға қажетті саналы көзқарас қалыптастыруға және ой өзегінен өткізілген шешім қабылдауға көмектеседі.
DETERMINATION OF THE DEGREE OF INFLUENCE OF HYDRODYNAMIC PRESSURE DROP AND CAPILLARY PRESSURE ON THE DEPTH OF THE ZONE OF PENETRATION OF FILTRATE OF WASHING FLUID INTO THE FORMATION
Authors:   Russian State University of Oil and Gas named after I.M. Gubkin (NRU), Moscow, Russian Federation, Borozdin S.O.
Published: November 2024

When mud filtrate is introduced into the formation, its rate of advancement is determined by hydrodynamic and capillary forces. Hydrodynamic forces act at a distance between points of different pressures. Unlike hydrodynamic forces, capillary pressure acts locally, at the interface. In some cases, when hydrodynamic filtration in the formation is not carried out, the entry of washing fluid is due to capillary penetration. The ratio of forces depends on changes in pressure, water supply, interfacial tension, radius of porous channels and a number of other factors. The calculation method proposed in the article allows to determine the values of the radius of the pore channels and the distance from the well at which the equality of hydrodynamic and capillary forces will be observed. A plot of the dependence of the hydrodynamic force difference and capillary pressure equation on the radius of the porosity channels determined by the distance of the radius from the well is described.

Realization of high-tech designs in gas and oil industry contributes to more efficient functioning of production. Development of quality minerals is not a scientific and technical progress, but a stable level indicator based on the general economic aspect.Therefore, the introduction of high quality updated technologies and additions to production functioning systems always leads to a greater need for their use. To maximize energy efficiency in gas and oil production, it is recommended to use high-quality autonomous power sources. The sets of optimization possibilities on algorithms of systems of distribution of power loads of electric transformer substations taking into account large productivity of producing wells at oil fields are developed. Recommendations on quality utilization, developed on the basis of long algorithms, allow to increase step-by-step nominal level of power loads at pumping units operation. It is proved that to maximize energy efficiency enterprises need to use their own high-quality autonomous power sources. The article considers the efficiency and cost-effective possibilities of production energy-consuming and quality functioning equipment in the oil&gas industry. In addition, taking into account the benefits on the basis of the study was carried out a large-scale analysis of data on the characteristics of relative efficiency and reliability to the technical condition of gas turbine and gas piston power plants.

PERANAN SAKSI AHLI DALAM HUKUMAN RICHARD ELIEZER SEBAGAI “JUSTICE COLLABORATOR” ATAS PEMBUNUHAN JOSUA HUTABARAT
Authors: Manullang Sihol , Miharja Marjan
Published: November 2024

Kasus tindak pidana pembunuhan berencana yang dilakukan secara bersama-sama oleh Ferdy Sambo, Richard Eliezer Pudihang Lumiu, Putri Candrawathi, Ricky Rizal Wibowo dan Kuat Ma’ruf, yang dituntut dalam perkara terpisah, menimbulkan perhatian masyarakat. Bahwa, Richard Eliezer Pudihang Lumiu adalah eksekutor dalam pembunuhan berencana yang menewaskan Nofriansyah Josua Hutabarat. Richard melakukan penembakan atas perintah Ferdy Sambo. Meskipun terdakwa Richard Eliezer merupakan eksekutor, ia mendapatkan hukuman paling ringan di antara semua terdakwa.
Dalam posisi sebagai Justice Collaborator, Tim Pengacara dan Richard berhasil menghadirkan para Saksi Meringankan yang pas, rohaniawan Pastor Von Magnis Suseno, psikolog Liza Marielly Djaprie dan psikolog forensik Reza Idragiri Amriel, ahli hukum pidana Dr Albert Aries.
Richard Eliezer Pudihang Lumiu (Richard) “mencuri” rasa keadilan masyarakat. Apa yang selama ini hilang dari sanubari masyarakat, ditemukan dalam diri Richard. Yaitu: Kejujuran. Kalau tak ada Richard, pembunuhan Josua bisa-bisa lewat begitu saja, menjadi dark number (kasus yang hilang).
Bersamaan dengan ini, Richard Eliezer menjadi Justice Collaborator, dia mengungkap segala sesuatu dengan jujur. Tindakan ini mengundang simpati kepada Richard, sebagaimana terlihat dari pemberitaan media massa.
Bukan hanya para saksi meringankan. Kemudian, 122 akademisi mengangkat diri mereka sendiri sebagai “Sahabat Pengadilan.” Karena Richard membunuh berdasarkan perintah, mereka meminta agar Richard dihukum seringan-ringannya. Richard, hanya dihukum selama 18 bulan.
Penyidikan Richard Eliezer sejak awal memang laksana drama, mempermainkan emosi masyarakat. Pengaduan Richard Eliezer semula menyangkal, kemudian menjadi Justice Collaborator. Unik. Bahkan, ada pula pendukung Richard yang selalu hadir dalam sidang, menyebut nama diri sebagai “Richard Angel.” ***

Published: November 2024

This review paper delves into the 'security dynamics in Nigeria, and the fight against crime', elucidating the current state of criminal activities in Nigeria, which have reached unprecedented levels, particularly with the emergence of social media and other sophisticated technological tools. Nevertheless, the paper aims to leverage these advanced technological resources for intelligence gathering to combat crime effectively. It correlates the nature of criminal activities and their evolution with the intergenerational differences present in our society today, highlighting how these differences have also impacted the capabilities of law enforcement agencies in addressing crime in Nigeria. The recommendations put forth in this paper emphasize the significance of inter-agency cooperation, advocating for the integration of advanced intelligence-gathering mechanisms into the operational frameworks of security agencies to expedite crime prevention. Additionally, the discussion on recommendations entails investing in community policing, enhancing security protocols, and enacting reforms, among other proposals.

Introducción: El Trastorno de Adaptación ocurre como respuesta a eventos estresantes específicos y se manifiesta a través de síntomas emocionales o conductuales severos. Objetivo: Analizar la Tasa de Egreso Hospitalario por trastorno de adaptación en Chile en 2019-2022, según sexo y edad. Metodología: Estudio descriptivo observacional y transversal sobre egresos hospitalarios por Trastorno de Adaptación en el periodo 2019-2022 en Chile según grupo etario y sexo (n=3.399). Se aplicó estadística descriptiva utilizando datos del Departamento de Estadísticas e Información de Salud y del Instituto Nacional de Estadísticas. Resultados: Durante el período estudiado, la Tasa de Egreso Hospitalario por Trastorno de Adaptación fue de 4,84 por cada 100.000 habitantes. El sexo femenino presentó mayores Tasa de Egreso Hospitalario con 6,15/100.000 habitantes, mientras que la tasa del sexo masculino fue de 3,47. El grupo etario con mayor Tasa de Egreso Hospitalario fue el de 10-19 años con 11,90/100.000 habitantes. Discusión: Se evidenció una disminución en las hospitalizaciones por Trastorno de Adaptación en 2019-2022 en Chile, posiblemente debido a la pandemia por SARS-CoV-2 y la saturación del sistema de salud. Las mujeres presentaron mayores tasas de hospitalización, posiblemente influenciadas por factores hormonales y mayor búsqueda de ayuda. Los adolescentes entre 10 y 19 años fueron el grupo etario más afectado. Conclusión: Debido a la alta Tasa de Egreso Hospitalario en pacientes de sexo femenino y adolescentes, se sugiere implementar políticas en la atención primaria de salud dirigidas a estos pacientes.
história com nome de gente
Authors: Viana Bruna
Published: November 2024

É claro que a evolução da participação social na Avaliação de Tecnologias em Saúde (ATS) no Brasil é um processo histórico de mudança institucional, que perpassa a própria constituição do SUS, inserindo a população brasileira e o controle social na formulação das políticas de saúde. Mais recente que o sistema de saúde brasileiro, a ATS foi institucionalizada com a premissa da participação social. Essa história, institucional e documentada por meio de legislações, portarias e decretos, evoluiu ao longo dos anos, por vezes em passos mais largos, em outros mais lentos, sempre escrita por pessoas. Afinal, instituições são formadas por gente. Inclusive, a evolução e o aprofundamento do envolvimento da sociedade na ATS é uma história que não tem como ser contada sem que se faça menção ao envolvimento de alguns nomes. Vania Canuto é, reconhecidamente, um deles. Pioneira na área, Vania foi um dos primeiros nomes a trabalhar com a ATS no país. Servidora pública, Especialista em Políticas Públicas e Gestão Governamental, ela vivenciou marcos importantes desse processo, como a criação da Rede Brasileira de Avaliação de Tecnologias em Saúde (Rebrats) e da Comissão Nacional de Incorporação de Tecnologias no Sistema Único de Saúde (Conitec), da qual foi diretora-substituta e, posteriormente, diretora. Reconhecida por seu trabalho na área por mais de vinte anos, Vania é uma das vozes importantes desse caminho. Ouvi-la é, com certeza, conhecer o que legislações, portarias e decretos não alcançam. É um resgate da compreensão de como o SUS foi, e vem sendo, arduamente, construído por gente. Sobretudo, um registro justo e necessário de umfragmento importante da nossa história. Em entrevista, realizada remotamente em 12 de junho de 2024 pela jornalista Bruna Viana, Vania relata o aprofundamento do processo de participação social na Conitec, que tornou o Brasil uma referência internacional no tema, e apresenta marcos dessa trajetória.

Fault Location and Detection in Power Distribution Systems with Presence of Distributed Generations using Improved CNNs
Authors: Muna Hameed Khalaf
Published: November 2024

This paper introduces a deep learning approach for addressing fault detection and location issues in power distribution grids. The proposed method utilizes a 20-layer deep neural network (CNN) that employs the ReLU activation function in the hidden layers and the Softmax function in the pre-classification layer. The network’s input layer dimensions are 224 x 224 pixels, with each input image being a composite of seven images, each sized 32 x 224 pixels. Data is gathered using continuous wavelet transform and Hilbert transform on each signal, followed by feature extraction and conversion into RGB images. The signals include three-phase voltages, currents, and zero-sequence voltages, collected across different locations, times, and fault resistances for use in the training and testing of the deep neural network. The output layer categorizes faults into ten classes, covering types such as single-phase to ground, two-phase, and three-phase faults. Additionally, the location identification layer categorizes faults into five classes corresponding to five zones on a specific feeder. The proposed method is validated using a test power system simulated in MATLAB 2020b, which includes six main feeders and two sub-feeders. The validation is conducted under two scenarios: one without distributed generation sources and with data noise at SNR = 10dB, and another with distributed generation sources and SNR = 40dB. The method demonstrated strong performance in all cases, and the trained network successfully detected and located faults in previously untested areas.

Éloge d’une « physique de l’éphémère ». Introduction aux mouvements planétaires et à la relativité restreinte à partir d’une démarche historique mettant en valeur des phases de transitions dans l’élaboration des connaissances
Authors: Bracco Christian
Published: November 2024

Nous nous proposons d’éclairer des moments clés de l’histoire de la pensée scientifique, qui ne sont pas passés à la postérité car ils n’ont joué de rôle que sur une durée limitée, et de les utiliser à des fins d’enseignement. Cette approche, qui demande une connaissance historique détaillée, permet de reformuler les objectifs d’apprentissage en immergeant élèves et étudiants dans le processus scientifique créatif au cours duquel des hypothèses théoriques sont testées. D’un point de vue épistémologique, notre approche réintroduit une continuité dans l’histoire des idées scientifiques et permet d’établir un dialogue entre des connaissances autrement présentées de manière cloisonnée. Ainsi, pour un public connaissant les bases de la mécanique newtonienne, le renvoi à l’utilisation de l’« équant » dans un modèle héliocentrique par Johannes Kepler permet d’introduire, à partir de la trajectoire circulaire, l’idée de mouvements planétaires elliptiques ; celui à l’utilisation du « temps local » de Hendrik Antoon Lorentz de 1895 permet d’introduire le caractère non absolu du temps et de l’exploiter dans un cadre relativiste. Rétrospectivement, la physique mise en jeu, au regard de la théorie « exacte », constitue une approximation au premier ordre dans les variables physiques du problème (l’excentricité e dans le premier cas ; le rapport V/c~10–4 dans le second).

The problem of quantitative assessment of the efficiency of using direct current for power supply within the framework of distributed generation with renewable energy sources (RЕS) is formulated. Typical architectures of microgrids running on direct and alternating current are considered. The possibility of reducing power conversion stages when switching to direct current and reducing the cost of power supplies for electronic devices is analyzed. The solution to the problem is carried out using the example of a residential building. At the same time, to assess the potential of renewable energy sources (solar activity, wind speed), data obtained using an alternative energy complex (AEC) deployed at the Smolensk branch of MPEI are used. Modeling of electrical load profiles of consumers is carried out which based on a probabilistic-statistical model. To evaluate the efficiency, mathematical models of various types of power converters have been developed. The modeling algorithm is presented in the form of a block diagram. The efficiency of a microgrid on direct current is calculated relative to a similar system on alternating current for different operating modes of the microgrid. A conclusion is formed about the most effective operating mode.

運用影像辨識法比較行人道綠視率對熱環境之影響
Authors: 張效通 張效通 , Hsiao-Tung Chang 許富雄
Published: November 2024

綠化的三維指標以綠視率為主，該指標顯示出行人正常視野裡綠化面積所占的比例。行人步道綠視率高低與熱環境品質的溫度、舒適度等指標之相關性尚待研究。因此，本文透過行人步行過程中以人體正常視角下拍攝行人步道實景影像及熱影像，並且同時測量溫度及濕度等資料，進而應用Visual Basic撰寫影像識別程式，解析每張影像之綠視率及熱影像表面溫度（surface temperature）等，結合空氣溫度（air temperature）及濕度，進一步比較行人綠化視覺體驗環境與都市溫度、濕度等熱環境之間的關係，評估行人的熱舒適度。研究成果顯示，綠視率越高熱像表面溫度值越低、空氣溫度愈低且舒適度愈佳。反之綠視率越低則熱環境品質越差。因而，提高行人道的綠視率確能緩解都市熱環境溫度，提升行人的舒適度。The three-dimensional indicator of greening is mainly visible green index, which shows the proportion of greening area in the normal vision of travelers. The correlation between pedestrian visible green index and thermal environmental quality, temperature, comfort and other environmental quality remains to be studied. Therefore, in this paper, the real image and thermal image of pedestrian walkway are taken from the normal perspective of human body during pedestrian walking, and the temperature and humidity are measured at the same time. Then, the image recognition program is written by visual basic to analyze the green visual rate and thermal image temperature of each image, and combined with air temperature and humidity. Further compare the relationship between pedestrian greening visual experience environment and urban temperature, humidity and other thermal environment, and evaluate the thermal comfort of pedestrians. The research results show that the higher the visible green index, the lower the surface temperature of thermal image, the lower the air temperature and the better comfortable. On the contrary, the lower the green visibility, the worse the space quality of thermal environment. Therefore, improving the green visibility of sidewalks can alleviate the urban thermal environment temperature and improve the comfort of pedestrians.

Wen, Literature, and Belles Lettres: Reconfiguring Chinese Literature in Nineteenth-Century English Sinology
Authors: Ji Lingjie
Published: November 2024

This article examines the fluid nature of literature as exemplified both semantically and conceptually in the English-language studies of Chinese literature conducted by Western Sinologists in the nineteenth century. If Chinese literary modernization of the early twentieth century is seen as shaped by the contact with foreign literary theories, Sinologists in the nineteenth century had already engaged actively with English literary concepts to reconfigure Chinese literature in their English-language writings. This article contends that, regardless of their impact on Chinese literary modernity, the Sinologists’ conceptions underlined the aesthetic and generic concerns that are fundamental to the modern understanding of literature and thereby fostered a renewed imagination of Chinese literature in the English-speaking world. Examining a wide range of primary materials, including dictionaries and Sinological writings, this article aims to unfold their transcultural naming and legitimizing process that gave rise to the knowledge category of Chinese literature through contingent English and Chinese literary terminology, narrative frameworks, and categorization schemes. This article traces the unnoticed history in comparative literary history to offer a genealogical understanding of the Western conception of Chinese literature. It also provides a new dimension for reviewing and analyzing the dialogue and interplay between Western and Chinese literary ideas within the Sinologists’ writings prior to the overwhelming influence of Western literary ideas during the period of Chinese literary modernity.
The Ransom Logion and the Cost of Discipleship in Mark
Authors: Basham David Anthony
Published: November 2024

While some acknowledge that the context in which the ransom logion is given in Mark is one of instruction to the disciples, comments are often devoted to possible meanings of ransom as atonement with little reference to its implications for discipleship. The following study considers how the ransom logion’s sources and salvific import also inform what is required of disciples in Mark’s Gospel. In addition to being a clarification of Jesus’s messianic identity, the ransom logion speaks to the cost of discipleship through the intentional bracketing of motifs by the author in chs. 8–10. Like the exchange that Jesus makes, discipleship in Mark is considered a transaction by which disciples gain heavenly treasure beginning to be realized now in the community devoted to Jesus.
What Literary Universals Are and What Culture Is Not: The Example of Descriptive Ethics
Authors: Hogan Patrick Colm
Published: November 2024

Most of us would like to think that our ideas and commitments develop in a purely “objective” manner, as if they were the product of simple chains of evidence and inference. But that would be wrong. Our intellectual lives are more contingent and personal than that. In keeping with the biographical background of our intellectual engagements and commitments, the following article begins with a sort of memoir treating some key features of the author’s theoretical and scholarly development. This leads to a discussion of one prominent concern that has been a recurrent focus of Hogan’s research and writing—literary universals, especially story universals. Isolating and explaining universals is a project that is mostly ignored by literary theorists today. Insofar as it is not ignored, it is widely misunderstood. This article attempts to correct some of this misunderstanding. Rather than anything universal, humanists today are particularly enthusiastic about the idea of culture, despite its vagueness and (at best) limited explanatory value. As knowledge about culture is widely seen as undermining the study of universals, the article then turns to some criticisms of culturalism. It concludes by treating the example of how story universals bear on and illuminate the descriptive study of ethics.
AN ANALYSIS ON THE 2015 TÜRKİYE AND RUSSIA AIRCRAFT CRISIS: COMPELLENCE, DETERRENCE AND BALANCING

Published: November 2024

It is possible to state that as a discipline, international security studies have developed within the framework of the realist paradigm and during the period of the Cold War. It is established that the field of security studies, which places a particular emphasis on the role of military power and states in international politics, is consequently designated as strategic studies. In this context, studies on coercion strategies have been implemented focusing on states’ power. On the other hand, power distribution and balance of power in the system along with the ascend of neorealism have been underlined. In this study, the aircraft crisis taking approximately nine months between Turkish-Russian relationship has been examined utilizing both coercion (deterrence and compellence) and balancing strategies. The objective of the study is to clarify the agreement between Türkiye and Russia from the perspective of aforementioned strategies, perception of actors and cost-benefit calculations. In this qualitative case study, the process tracing method was used to reveal the cause-and-effect relationship between variables in a clear and definitive manner. In addition, document analysis technique was used to collect the data. It is concluded that given the estimated exorbitant costs to both parties at the conclusion of the crisis, the parties involved reached an agreement to conclude the crisis.

In this study, 7% manganese-doped zinc oxide (MZO) thin films with varying low thicknesses were synthesized using the spin coating method. The structural, optical, and morphological properties of MZO films with different film thickness, were systematically investigated. The crystallite structure, superficial morphology, and optical characteristics were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis). Structural analysis confirmed that all films exhibit a hexagonal wurtzite phase with a pronounced peak along the c-axis, and slight variation in low thickness significantly affected the structural parameters. The surface morphology demonstrated good uniformity, characterized by rounded grain shapes in the plane, while surface roughness was found to be increased with increasing film thickness. Optical analysis revealed that as the number of coatings increased, both transmittance and band gap energy decreased, accompanied by a redshift in the absorption edge across all samples. This behavior is attributed to light scattering, as well as an increase in the refractive index and dielectric function with visible light energy, influenced by the number of layers and corresponding crystallite size.

Compreendendo que o ensino de teatro na educação básica ocorre em um espaço de conflito enquanto unidade temática da disciplina Artes, o presente artigo objetivou analisar as dificuldades vivenciadas por professores com formação em Teatro nas escolas estaduais na cidade de Montes Claros – MG. Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória com abordagem qualitativa, utilizando entrevistas semiestruturadas com 3 professoras atuantes há pelo menos 7 anos na educação básica. Como referencial teórico, foram utilizados os seguintes autores: Amorim (2017), Barbosa (1989, 2018), Carvalho (2006), Minayo (2011), Icle (2011), Japiassu (2002) e Mendonça (2005). Através dos dados obtidos e em consonância com os autores, concluiu-se que o Teatro não ocorre de maneira integral nas escolas por motivos como a polivalência, pequena carga horária, falta de estrutura e a compreensão limitada da administração escolar sobre seu valor. Embora presente no currículo, o Teatro carece de atenção e suporte para aplicação eficaz, necessitando tempo e espaço adequados para que os alunos possam explorar sua criatividade plenamente. Sem recursos específicos e com sobrecarga de responsabilidades, o ensino teatral é frequentemente reduzido a atividades superficiais e pouco frequentes. O estudo aponta a necessidade de ações que valorizem o Teatro no contexto escolar, promovendo condições de trabalho que permitam aos professores desenvolverem práticas pedagógicas significativas e contribuírem para o desenvolvimento integral dos alunos.

O presente artigo aborda a questão de violência doméstica, familiar e de gênero contra a mulher no âmbito doméstico, familiar e social, analisa a origem de onde deriva tal violência, sob o ponto de vista jurídico e também social, assim como os instrumentos jurídicos na proteção aos direitos e garantias fundamentais e a sua efetiva (in) eficácia na prevenção e combate a violência.  O problema apresentado por este trabalho tem o cerne na ineficiência Estatal, que às vezes por negligência outras por omissão perante a violência doméstica e familiar não cumpre sua função de proteção à mulher, fato esse que agrava o quadro, acarretando aumento da violência de todo tipo e a impunidade ao agressor. Há diversos conceitos de violência, visto as várias formas existentes, toda essa multiplicidade tornou imperativo a criação de leis específicas, como a lei Maria da Penha (Lei n°11.340/2006) que é considerada um marco em relação ao progresso feminino e leva o nome de uma sobrevivente dos constantes atos de violência do seu então marido. Também a mais recente figura penal, como uma nova modalidade de homicídio qualificado, a Lei de feminicídio (Lei n°13.104/2015), são leis criadas  com o intuito  de proteger a mulher diante da impotência contra tamanha violência. O trabalho se desenvolve por meio de pesquisas bibliográficas como doutrinas de Direito Penal, leis específicas, Constituição Federal de 1988, artigos e dados estatísticos sobre o tema. O método adotado será o monográfico e o método de abordagem dedutivo.
Teacher Support and Student Engagement in the Conduct of Blended Learning Instruction for English as A Foreign Language
Authors: Liu Tongfang , Mantuhac Pamela B.
Published: November 2024

With the deep integration of information technology and education, blended learning has emerged as a new paradigm in higher education, combining the strengths of both online and offline learning environments. This approach allows English as Foreign Language (EFL) learners, particularly in the Chinese context, to engage in flexible and continuous learning beyond traditional classroom settings, thereby fostering greater student initiative and self-directed learning. Understanding the impact of teacher support on student engagement within this blended learning framework is crucial for optimizing educational outcomes. This study employed a quantitative descriptive comparative and correlational research design to examine the relationship between various forms of teacher support—instructional, emotional, feedback, and interpersonal—and student engagement among 307 Chinese EFL learners in a blended learning environment. The findings reveal that all forms of teacher support were perceived as high, with feedback provision ranking highest. Similarly, student engagement was also rated highly across behavioral, cognitive, emotional, and social domains. The Pearson correlation coefficient between teacher support and student engagement was found to be 0.75, indicating a significant positive relationship. Based on these findings, a program aimed at enhancing teacher support to further improve student engagement in blended learning environments was developed and recommended.

La investigación fue conducida en el fundo Montelima, de la empresa Agrícola del Chira S.A. Caña Brava, ubicado en el distrito de Ignacio Escudero, provincia de Sullana, departamento de Piura, Perú, entre setiembre de 2017 a octubre de 2018. El objetivo principal fue la determinación de las curvas de absorción de nutrientes en el cultivo de caña de azúcar (Saccharum officinarum L.) variedad RB 72-454. El área de trabajo fue de 3.63 has, haciéndose evaluaciones mensuales de muestras de tejidos vegetales para determinar la materia seca y los nutrientes N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Zn, Cu, Mn, Fe y B presentes en la raíz, tallo, follaje y cepa. En el experimento se utilizó un Diseño de Bloques Completos al Azar (BCA) con tres repeticiones. Se determinó que, los contenidos de nitrógeno, fósforo y potasio en el follaje y tallo tuvieron un comportamiento en ascenso, siendo mayor en el follaje para N y P en el mes 9, y en el tallo para el K en el mes 8, mientras que en la raíz y cepa no hubo mucha variación, siendo los niveles mínimos. Los contenidos de calcio y magnesio fueron mayores en el follaje. El potasio fue el elemento que más se acumuló en los órganos de la planta. De los micro elementos, el hierro fue el que más absorción presentó. El patrón de absorción de nutrientes fue: K>N>Ca>Mg>P>Fe>Mn>B>Zn>Cu. El mayor porcentaje de materia seca se encontró en el tallo de caña de azúcar con 64.81%.

Preclinical assessment forms an effective strategy in undergraduate training. It enhances the continuous development of skills, facilitates early intervention, and optimizes training resources. Constructive feedback provided to the student fosters continuous improvement in preparedness for professional practice and has implications for the development of a learning culture characterized by student activity. This indeed ensures that a smooth transition will be made toward clinical application of skills. The aim of the study was to evaluate examiner`s reliabilities while applying two different assessment methods: a Glance and Grade assessment method and a Checklist and Criteria assessment method. A total of 100 class I amalgam cavity preparations were assessed by three independent examiners to evaluate Class I amalgam cavity preparations on artificial first mandibular molar teeth prepared by second-year undergraduate dental students in a preclinical laboratory setting. Statistical analysis for inter-examiner and intra-examiner variability was tested using one-way ANOVA test and a paired t-test, respectively. Results of this study showed that intra-examiner variability was significantly reduced with Checklist and Criteria assessment method. The inter-examiner variability was present in a Glance and Grade assessment method while with the Checklist and Criteria assessment method, there was an extremely high level of agreement among the examiners. The study's findings indicated considerable variability among examiners using the Glance and Grade assessment method. However, the Checklist and Criteria assessment method demonstrated remarkable consistency among examiners, indicating that it may offer a more standardized and reliable approach to evaluation.
Kan havsbaserad vindkraft påverka vandrande lax?
Authors: Koehler Birgit , Dannewitz Johan , Bergström Lena

· Bedömningen baseras på litteratur om laxens biologi och om påverkansfaktorer från havsbaserad vindkraft. Det finns i dagsläget inga vindparker där det förekommer lax i svenska hav så att man kan studera faktiska effekter, och inte heller några undersökningar från vindparker i andra länder. · Enligt nuvarande kunskapsläge bedöms risken som låg att vandrande lax påverkas negativt, om vindparker anläggs med bottenfasta fundament med ett långt avstånd mellan tornen och lokaliseras i utsjön på ett inte alltför grunt vattendjup (mer än cirka 30 meter). · Risken för negativ påverkan på vandrande lax bedöms som låg även vid användning av flytande fundament, men osäkerheten är något högre. De kablar som transporterar el från flytande fundament kommer att ligga i vattenmassan och skulle komma närmare laxen än vid användning av bottenfasta fundament. Det magnetiska fältet från kablarna har dock en mycket begränsad spridning, i storleksordningen högst enstaka meter. · Även om risken bedöms som låg så är det viktigt med uppföljande studier i och omkring de vindparker som anläggs, med fokus på att klarlägga laxens beteende vid anläggningarna. Om flera vindparker byggs är en samordnad övervakning viktig för att kunna följa eventuella kumulativa effekter. Syftet med undersökningarna skulle vara att klarlägga kunskapsläget och ge möjlighet att identifiera behov av anpassningar för att lindra eventuella oförutsedda negativa effekter på större rumslig skala, till exempel vandringsmönster.
