Published: December 2023

İslam ülkelerinde altarnatif bir finansman ürünü olarak son dönemlerde oldukça rağbet gören sukuk, giderek
finansal sistemin önemli bir yapı taşı haline gelmektedir. Bugün pekçok otorite sukuk üzerine kurgulanmış ekonomik bir sistemin gelecekte dünya çapında muazzam bir büyüme potansiyeli taşıdığını ifade etmektedir. Önceleri sadece faize karşı mesafeli bazı kesimlerce yatırım ve finansman ihtiyaçlarına yönelik olarak çıkarılan sukuk
sertifikaları, bugün müslüman olsun gayrımüslim olsun hemen her kesimin dikkatini celbeden, hükümetler ve
firmalar tarafından çeşitli projelerin finansmanında likidite aracı olarak kullanılan önemli bir yöntem olmaktadır.
Çünkü sukuk yapısı itibariyle faize altarnatif bir yatırım aracı olmasının yanısıra, tarafları nakit finansman araçlarının sahip olduğu sıkıntılardan koruyarak dolaylı yoldan mal ve hizmet üretimini arttırmakta, artan üretim ile
ekonomik göstergeleri iyileştirmekte, iyileşen bu ortam neticesinde ülke refaha ulaşmaktadır. Finansman ihtiyacı
nedeniyle sukuk ihracına giden taraflar ihtiyaç duydukları finansmanı faizsiz şekilde temin ederken, diğer yandan
ilgili sukuklara yatırım yapan yatırımcılar faizsiz ve dönemsel getiri niteliğindeki “kira geliri-kârpayı-satış geliri”
gibi bir takım yatırım avantajları kazandığı sukuk modeli; belirsizliğin olmadığı, kuvvetli maddi varlıklara dayanan, borç senedi hükmünde olmayan, anapara ve sabit kazanç vaad etmediğinden “Risk Paylaşımını” merkeze
alan bir yapıda olup; üzerine düşülüp gerekli altyapı çalışmaları tamamlanırsa, ülkelerin GSMH’larını destekleyici
bir unsur olarak ekonomik refahı yakalamada kilit bir rol oynayabilecektir. Özellikle yurtdışı kaynaklı çok sayıda
amprik ve teorik çalışma bulgularına rastlanılan bu çalışmada amaç; sukuk hakkında yeterli ölçüde bilinmeyen
potansiyel yapıya dikkat çekmek ve genel olarak bir farkındalık oluşturmak olmaktadır. Makalede bilimsel çalışma

Authors: Lozovskaya M. E. , Motov I. Yu. , Novik G. A.
Published: December 2023

The article presents the review of 61 publications. The topic is highly relevant due to the fact that clinical trials of drugs and chemotherapy regimens usually enroll adults, while children participate only in a small number of them. Often in clinical practice, anti-tuberculosis drugs are prescribed to children off-label. The frequency of adverse reactions in children varies widely depending on approaches to their reporting. The most severe and frequent adverse events are associated with liver injury. In recent years, clinical trials of fluoroquinolones, bedaquiline, and delamanid were run in pediatric patients with drug resistant tuberculosis demonstrating satisfactory tolerability and safety of these drugs.

The objective: to evaluate expanded monitoring of cardiovascular disorders in older children and adolescents with multiple drug resistant tuberculosis receiving bedaquiline (Bq) as a part of anti-tuberculosis therapy.

Subjects and Methods: A cohort retrospective-prospective study (2015-2021) was conducted, which included 36 patients aged 13-17 years old who received Bq. The prospective part included 19 patients (Main Group), they underwent extended monitoring (EM) of cardiotoxic reactions; this extended monitoring program was developed in Central Tuberculosis Research Institute. The retrospective part included 17 patients (Control Group), in whom cardiotoxic reactions were assessed using standard monitoring recommended by the Russian Society of Phthisiologists at that time. The relationship between the studied risk factor (monitoring by standard ECG) and the outcome (Bq discontinuation) was assessed using the Pearson χ2 test.

Results. Prolongation of the QTc interval > 0.440 ms was noted in 17.6% of cases in Control Group and it was regarded as a cardiotoxic effect of Bq, the drug was discontinued. In Main Group, prolongation was noted in 47.3% of cases which was considered a functional disorder of the cardiovascular system according to EM, the drug was not discontinued, χ2 = 3.896; p = 0.049. EM can be used in older children and adolescents with multiple drug resistant respiratory tuberculosis, which will make it possible to safely include Bq to chemotherapy regimens.

Published: December 2023

Indonesia is one of the countries that have a large number of smokers in the world and it keeps increasing every year. Lithuania compared to other European Union countries, is slightly bigger than the European Union average of smoking prevalence. Both of these countries have implemented Tobacco Control Policies for quite a long time.  Three research objectives in this research are to review and compare Lithuania and Indonesia’s Tobacco Control Policies; to analyze the situation of smoking behavior in Lithuania and Indonesia; and to analyze the implementation and its impact on smoking behavior of Tobacco Control Policy in Lithuania and Indonesia. Qualitative methods are used to analyze the document for the policy and literature analysis to acquire information about the situation of smoking cases and the implementation of the policy in both countries. This study aims to accomplish a comparative analysis of the Tobacco Control Policy between Lithuania and Indonesia and its impact on the rise of smoking cases. The Indonesian government has set a good Tobacco Control Policy but the implementation of the policy it’s not strict and there are a lot of tobacco product advertisements in Indonesia, this could be the reason why Indonesia has so many smokers and increasing every year. Lithuania has stricter regulations and implementation, and the smokers are decreasing every year, but they have a new group of smoker which is youth smoker that growing rapidly nowadays.

Published: December 2023

Electronic circuits known as logic gates can perform basic logical operations like inverters, AND, and OR gates. These logic gates serve as the basis for digital electronics, and they are a common component in various electronic devices, such as computers, smartphones, and other types of digital systems. This research presents an inverter logic gate made of planar devices, which have significantly simpler structures than multi-layered transistors and diodes, namely the self-switching diode (SSD) and side-gated transistor (SGT). The inverter logic gate is realized by simply connecting both SSD and SGT in parallel. The electrical characteristics and performances of the inverter logic gate are assessed based on InGaAs material using SILVACO Inc.'s ATLAS device simulator software. The simulation results show that the functionality of the proposed planar inverter is comparable to that of a conventional inverter logic gate based on the standard truth table of the device. This has demonstrated the feasibility of building logic gates using a combination of SSDs and SGTs. In addition, the planar structure of SSD and SGT allows for a relatively low-cost device fabrication process as well as offering a high-frequency operation due to low parasitic elements in the devices.

In this work, the electrodeposition method was utilized to form gold nanoparticles on a carbon screen-printed electrode (SPE) using chronoamperometry at -0.4 V with various durations from 50 to 200 seconds. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) images have proven that the electrodeposition method is capable of uniformly forming AuNPs on SPE (AuNPs- SPE). Apart from that, electrodeposition durations have increased the size of AuNPs by up to 66% based on average size measurements using ImageJ software. It can be observed that long electrodeposition durations permit the agglomeration of AuNPs on the electrode surface. The effect of electrodeposition duration on electrocatalytic performance in potassium ferricyanide and electrochemiluminescence (ECL) intensity of nitrogen-doped carbon dots (NCDs) was evaluated. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) of ferricyanide demonstrates that as the electrodeposition duration increases, AuNPs-SPE shows better electrochemical performance than bare SPE. ECL of NCDs displays that 100 s electrodeposition durations give the highest ECL intensity of 184% compared to bare SPE and have been chosen as the optimum parameter. The ECL mechanisms of bare SPE and AuNPs-SPE reveal that AuNPs- SPE has greater electrochemical and ECL performance than bare SPE, as evidenced by the CV of AuNPs-SPE having a faster reduction current, which rises to 87.2% ECL intensity and 510 mV faster ECL occurrence. These phenomena confirmed that the electrodeposition of AuNPs has improved the conductivity of SPE.

Published: December 2023

There has been an increasing interest in the development of chemical and biological FET- based sensors due to their remarkable benefits in label-free detection that has been commonly used in both pH and DNA sensing respectively. In this work, recent Double-Gated Field Effect Transistor (DGFET) as transducers is investigated to understand the super- Nernstian response by amplifying the sensitivity capability in back-gate operations. The BioSensorLab tool was employed to evaluate pH-sensitivity amplification by studying the electrolyte screening and conduction modulation mechanisms which modeled by using Poisson-Boltzmann and Drift-Diffusion equations. The pH sensitivity amplification factors were investigated based on different geometrical configurations of DGFET devices, biasing conditions, and top oxide-electrolyte interfaces. pH sensitivity beyond Nernst limit was observed and increased linearly with the back oxide thickness of the DGFETs. DGFET with a sensitivity of 32.1 mV/pH operated through front-gate operation can be amplified to 195.4 mv/pH through the back-gate operation with a drain voltage of 0.5 V when the back gate oxide thickness increased to 150 nm. Higher pH-sensitivity responses of more than 200 mV/pH were observed where Al2O3 and Ta2O5 are used for the top oxide-electrolyte. It can be concluded that pH sensing of back gate operation ensures the DGFET transducers operated beyond the Nernst limit.

Recently, photodetectors have garnered significant attention owing to their broad spectrum of applications across fields such as the biomedical, industrial, agricultural, and telecommunications sectors. This research focuses on the development of a UV photodetector based on electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (ErGO) and incorporates reduced graphene oxide (rGO) thin films on interdigitated Au electrodes. The rGO thin films were synthesized using the direct one-step deposition method, maintaining a constant water bath temperature of 40 °C, and a consistent GO concentration of 0.15 g, while varying the pH levels within the range of pH 8 to pH 10. The investigation primarily concentrated on assessing the surface morphological, structural, and electrical properties of the rGO thin films by altering the pH level when exposed to 365 nm ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. The significant parameters for evaluating photodetector performance, including photosensitivity, stability, repeatability, response time, and recovery time. To achieve this, advanced techniques such as field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), Raman spectroscopy, and current-time measurement are employed. As a finding, the fabricated UV PD of rGO-Au at pH 9 achieved the photosensitivity 96.5% with the stability that was 30 times greater than rGO-Au (pH 10) and superior repeatability as well as rapid switching rate as compared to pH 8 and pH 10 with 0.6 V bias. This implies that rGO-Au prepared at pH 9 is a suitable material for application in UV detection.

Glucose determination method had gain significant interest from the industry for a fast and efficient response especially in the medical area for diabetes patient. Reduced graphene oxide (RGO) had been reported to help and improve the sensitivity of a sensor. The investigation for the optimum pH concentrations using FESEM, EDX, XRD analysis and Raman spectroscopy indicate that the pH 9 was suited to be deposited on the SPGE. In addition to that, different number of cycles during electrodeposition process was employed. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was used to investigate the charge transfer resistance for each cycle. All the deposited RGO on screen-printed gold electrode (SPGE) was being compared to the bare SPGE to confirmed that the electrodeposition of RGO could decrease the charge transfer resistance. For the detection of glucose, cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was used. 10 cycles deposition of RGO shows the highest sensitivity of 1.0525 μA·mM−1·cm−2 in the detection of glucose compared to the other cycles. The ease of use and scalability of the electrodeposition technique may make it easier to build upon the results of this work and produce glucose sensors that are more widely available and less expensive.

Published: December 2023

As the transistor’s size becomes smaller, degradation in the short-channel effects (SCEs) becomes more apparent. This leads to research work on multi-gate transistors such as the Fin-Field Effect Transistor (FinFET) and Gate-All-Around (GAA) transistor, where the 3D architecture have been shown to have superior performance as compared to conventional planar transistor. Transistor without junctions (JLT) which realizes a single type of doping has also been gaining popularity for biosensor applications due to its superior electrostatic performances in terms of Drain-Induced Barrier Lowering (DIBL), off-state leakage current (Ioff) and Subthreshold Slope (SS). In this work, the impact of changes in parameters such as the gate oxide material, nanowire radius and channel thickness toward the performance of a Gate-all-around JLT (GAA-JLT) have been studied using TCAD simulator. It was found that smaller nanowire radius and thicker channel produces lower DIBL, Ioff and SS, with the use of HfO2 as gate oxide materials shows better results than Si3N4. Meanwhile, the impact of parameters variations seemed to be negligible on the on-state current (Ion). The outcome of this work can be used as a basis to understand the impact of structural parameters variations towards the performance of a more complex GAA-JLT structure.

In this work, we used an alternating current electrochemical etching technique to fabricate nanostructured InGaN in potassium hydroxide, which serves as an electrolyte. The effects of different current densities during alternating current electrochemical etching on the morphological and optical characteristics of the nanostructured InGaN samples were investigated. The morphology of the nanostructured InGaN samples was determined by extreme high resolution field emission scanning electron microscopy. The pore size (~38 nm) and estimated porosity (~35%) were highest at 250 mA/cm2 current density. Furthermore, the surface roughness and average pore depth of the nanostructured InGaN increased with increasing current density, as revealed by atomic force microscopy. X-ray diffraction data showed a reduction in the full width at half maximum value and dislocation density of the nanostructured InGaN samples. The InGaN-like E2(high) phonon mode of the nanostructured InGaN sample was shifted to a higher frequency in the Raman spectra relative to that of the untreated sample, indicating that stress relaxation occurs in the nanostructured samples. Raman spectra showed an increase in intensity of the nanostructured InGaN samples showing improvement in optical property. The observed properties illustrate the potential of using nanostructured InGaN application in sensing devices.

A flexible and stretchable pressure sensor offers significant benefits in human-computer interaction, healthcare, and tactile sensing in robots. We present a novel study optimising Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and graphene-infused unvulcanised natural rubber sensing film to increase sensor sensitivity and dielectric permittivity. By optimising the PDMS thickness uniformity, NR-G film’s impedance and capacitance-pressure loading response, it is possible to enhance the pressure sensor's sensitivity across a wide pressure range, covering human finger motion. With our synthesized homogenous 5wt% of NRG composite, a capacitance value of 193pF was achieved when applying pressure of 150 kPa at a frequency of 0.5 Hz. Excellent sensitivity and dielectric permittivity of 0.020 kPa-1 and 109.1, respectively, which is ~ 6.5 folds higher than pure NR. PDMS thickness of 300μm with ±3% uniformity was achieved using 90s spin time and 200rpm spin speed. This optimisation of sensing material and substrate is important in developing wearable sensors having applications in soft robotics, health monitoring electronics, and soft human-machine interfaces.

Published: December 2023

The corrosion behavior of Aluminium matrix composite reinforced with micro-size boron carbide was investigated in a 3.5% NaCl solution. The sample was prepared using the stir casting technique with compositions of 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 wt% of B4C particles. Potentiodynamic polarisation methods were used to derive the electrochemical parameters while hardness analysis methods were used to derive the mechanical properties. A field emission scanning electron microscope (SEM) was employed to investigate the particle boron carbide distribution on the matrix and surface morphology of the metal surface before and after the corrosion test. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis was used to investigate the received powders and matrix samples for phase recognition and the presence of reinforcement particles (B4C) in the composite samples. The findings demonstrated that in a 3.5% NaCl solution, the aluminium matrix composite corrosion rate was inferior to that of the base alloy. At the same time, the corrosion rates of the composite increased with the increase in the composition of B4C in matrix aluminium. Passive layer breakdown due to agglomeration of boron carbide particles caused the increased corrosion rate. Hardness analysis has shown that the value of hardness was improved with the increase in the composition of B4C in the aluminium matrix.

MAJOR GENERAL SIR COLIN GUBBINS’ PRACTICAL HANDBOOK
Authors: Pereira Américo
Published: December 2023

When the world prepared itself for what would be WWII, Colin Gubbins created a practical handbook in which he laid the foundations of guerrilla warfare as a methodology and an art largely contributing for the defeat of apparently stronger military forces employed by an attacking enemy on an apparently weaker force. Guerrilla, scientifically structured, is the equalizing tool that permits the initially weaker power to diminish the superiority of the stronger, thus allowing for a goal not just of a lighter defeat, but of a possible victory. This effectiveness of guerrilla warfare is most useful when the perspective of the attacked power is an existential one.

Los resultados evidencian que la mayoría de las provincias de la Amazonía del Ecuador se encuentran dentro de los parámetros edafoclimáticos óptimos para el establecimiento del cultivo de balsa en pasto; pero la zonificación evidenció que la provincia de Morona Santiago es la que presenta mayor territorio con idoneidad alta para este cultivo, siendo la provincia de Napo, la cual no presenta idoneidad alta y se ubica únicamente en idoneidad media. La propuesta está encaminada a la conservación del suelo mediante la utilización de procesos sostenibles. Se concluye que la Amazonía puede albergar balsa en pasto dentro de las zonas señaladas, pero se debe realizar por profesionales capacitados y con conocimiento en el tema.

En base a estudios realizados sobre los niveles académicos alcanzados en países desarrollados y en Sudamérica destaca la metodología de enseñanza STEM, acrónimo que significa: Science (Ciencia), Technology (Tecnología), Engineering (Ingeniería) Mathematics (Matemáticas); que integra a estas cuatro disciplinas académicas, en este sentido se ha realizado esta investigación que tiene por objetivo analizar la percepción docente sobre la aplicación del método STEM en el proceso enseñanza aprendizaje de la ciencia y tecnología para el desarrollo de las competencias científicas. Esta metodología de investigación realizada es de enfoque cualitativo, tipo de estudio básico, diseño interpretativo fenomenológico y el escenario de estudio han sido cinco instituciones educativas públicas en la que participaron diez docentes del nivel secundario del área de ciencia y tecnología a los cuales se les aplico una entrevista orientada a comprender cómo han experimentado esta innovadora metodología en su contexto educativo y social. Los resultados han permitido identificar que existe la necesidad de actualizar a los docentes con metodologías activas para que sean aplicadas en la enseñanza de las ciencias acorde a la vanguardia tecnológica y la metodología STEM en base a resultados alcanzados garantiza elevar los niveles de logro de aprendizaje en las competencias “explica”, “indaga” y “diseña”.
Klasik ve Modern Tefsirde Kadının Konumu (Kurtubî ve Abduh-Reşîd Rızâ Örneği)
Authors: Ay Muhittin
Published: December 2023

Aydınlanma ve modernite sonrası İslâm dünyasında İslâm kültürüne yönelik eleştirel anlayışlar “tecdid ve ıslah” taraftarları arasında neşvünema bulmuştur. Çağdaş İslâm düşüncesinin önemli simalarından Muhammed Abduh (öl. 1905) ve öğrencisi Reşîd Rızâ (öl. 1935), geçmiş dönemdeki müfessirleri Kur’ân’ın hidâyet edici yönünü ortaya koymaktan ziyade kıraat, sarf, nahiv ve i’rab konularına fazlaca yer vermekle eleştirmişlerdir. Sorunların çözümünde Kur’ân ve sahih sünneti referans gösterme, Abduh ve Reşîd Rızâ’nın en temel iddialarındandır. Abduh ve Rızâ’ya göre Müslümanların Batı dünyasından geride kalmasının arka planında Kur’ân ve sünnetten uzaklaşma yatmaktadır. Bu iddia, İslâm’ın kadına bakışı konusunda da söz konusudur. Abduh ve Rızâ, Batıda feminizmle gelişen kadın hareketine ve kadın konusunda dini suçlayan tartışmalara kendi tefsirlerinde cevaplar aramaktadırlar. Zira Batı, kadınların dinsel bağlarından özgürleştikleri oranda özgür bireyler olabileceklerini, bu özgürlüğü de onlara modernitenin bahşettiği iddiasını dillendirmektedir. Modernite öncesinde ise kadının temel haklarından mahrum bırakıldığı, Batı dünyasının iddialarındandır. Batının bu iddiaları İslâm dünyasında da ciddi şekilde tartışılmıştır. Kadın sorunu üzerine yapılan tartışmalar, İslam dünyasında geleneksel ve modern yaklaşımların ortaya çıkmasına sebep olmuştur. Abduh ve Reşîd Rızâ’nın öncü olarak kabul edildikleri çağdaş İslâm düşüncesi, kadın konusunda geleneksel düşüncenin eksiklerini ortaya koydukları iddiasındadırlar. Abduh ve Rızâ’ya göre geleneğin kadınla ilgili yanlış düşünceler İslam’a hamledilemez. Abduh ve Rızâ, tefsirlerdeki yanlış kadın algısının da İslam’a mal edilemeyeceğini savunur. Abduh ve Rızâ’ya göre geleneksel tefsirlerde kadın ihmal edilmiştir. Ancak geleneksel tefsirlerin tümünde kadının ihmal edildiği iddiası, klasik tefsir araştırmaları neticesinde netliğe kavuşması mümkündür.
Bu çalışmada Endülüs tefsir geleneğinin önemli temsilcilerinden Kurtubî’nin (öl. 671/1273) el-Câmiʿ li-ahkâmi’l-Kurʾân Tefsiri ile çağdaş dönem İslâm düşüncesinin önemli simalarından Abduh ve Reşîd Rızâ’nın Tefsîrü’l-Menâr’ının kadın konusuna yaklaşımları mukayeseli bir şekilde incelenmiştir. İki tefsir üzerinden kadının yaratılışı, kadın erkek eşitliği tartışması, evlilik ve çok eşlilik, kadının ev işlerindeki sorumluluğu, kadının çalışma hayatı, toplumsal meselelerde kadının şahitliği ve boşanma meselesi gibi konular mukayeseli bir şekilde ele alınmıştır. Bu vesileyle çağdaş İslâm düşüncesinin tefsir anlayışı ile geleneksel tefsir anlayışı arasındaki farklılıklar ve benzerlikler ortaya konmuş, ayrıca klasik tefsirlerin kadına değer vermediği iddiası deliller ile incelenmiştir. Bu çalışmayla modernitenin kadının din sayesinde özgürlüğünü yitirdiği iddiası, klasik bir tefsir olan Kurtubî’nin el-Câmiʿ li-ahkâmi’l-Kurʾân tefsiri üzerinden değerlendirilmiştir.

In this provocation, Sue explores the field of learning design, where it has come from and how it has shaped the field. Questions of learning designer identity and roles come into play, and how this will look in the future in universities.
Promoting community and collaboration: Models underpinning an academic professional learning
Authors: Krull Greig , Hoosen Nazira
Published: December 2023

This chapter examines the theoretical frameworks and models that underpin the design and facilitation of an academic professional learning short course at a research-intensive public university in South Africa. These principles for learning design and facilitation can be applied in a variety of learning contexts to promote community and collaboration. The “Facilitating Online” short course is facilitated through the adoption of an “ethic of care” perspective that promotes modelling, dialogue and the adoption of a critical digital pedagogy stance. The design and facilitation of the course is underpinned by the Community of Inquiry framework for online and blended learning that talks to the importance of three pronounced presences: teacher, social and cognitive. In our view, learning is a social phenomenon that manifests through collaboration between facilitators and participants. We focused on the establishment of a digital community to create safe spaces for learning to occur. Throughout the course, the need for active and responsive facilitation is emphasised. This is modelled for participants to encourage adoption within their own courses and for their own students. The chapter contributes a view of how frameworks and models can be used to inform the learning design and facilitation of courses that emphasise the importance of community and collaboration within a local institutional context.
“I’ve been flying by the seat of my pants for my whole career”: Learning through mimicry and mentoring
Authors: Steenkamp Lizzy , Bandli Stephanie
Published: December 2023

Given the growing demand for learning design skills in South Africa and worldwide, a clear view of how the typical South African learning designers are currently hired and trained is increasingly important. As a pair of independent learning designers with over a decade of global experience, we have a unique perspective on how learning designers across the world are trained, and how this training reflects in the quality and impact of their work. We have further conducted surveys and interviews to define the profile, training, and responsibilities of South African learning designers in different sectors. We then used this data to identify key gaps in our national learning design skillset and suggest interventions to address these gaps.

Our research shows that South African learning designers are typically not formally educated in learning design and often feel like they must master divergent skillsets if they wish to be marketable in their new professions. We further outline how learning designers’ profiles, responsibilities and skills differ across the secondary education, higher education, corporate and agency sectors. Finally, we discuss the impact of this on a South African learning designer’s ability to excel in their role and find stability in their employment.
Weathering the storm by using the Rapid Development Prototype model in online course design
Authors: Anderson Fiona
Published: December 2023

In 2020, higher education institutions (HEIs) globally were faced with a new storm and none were adequately prepared to sail it. As Travis Meadows puts it: “Peace is not found in a calmer storm, it’s found in a better boat”, so too did HEIs have to look for better “boats” to weather the storm of the COVID-19 pandemic. To rapidly adjust from the traditional face-to-face modes of delivery to online learning, many HEIs had to adopt a model of rapid online course development. The shift to online learning fundamentally altered the environment in which institutions offering distance forms of higher education function — having a knock-on effect on their practices. This chapter provides a brief overview of the Rapid Development Prototype model and the experience of using it in online course design at a Namibian higher learning institution — the University of Namibia. Through the rapid model, instructional designers were better able to deliver the current needs of students at a rapid process to minimise interruptions to their learning.
Humanising online learning through the lens of engaged pedagogy
Authors: Molloy Kate , Thomson Clare
Published: December 2023

The chapter will focus on humanising with technology, learning and spaces, regardless of context. Careful consideration will be given to multiple modalities of connection with students, providing as much flexibility as possible. As learning technologists, our work focuses on inclusion, diversity and accessibility, and, whilst it is underpinned by critical digital pedagogy (Stommel, 2014) and pedagogy of care (Noddings, 1995), it is deeply rooted in practicality, ensuring care for ourselves as educators as well as for students. We will view learning design through the lens of bell hooks’ “engaged pedagogy” (1994, 2003).
We have facilitated several events on ‘care’, specifically critically exploring the narratives of resilience and well-being. At the core of these events was the exploration of how educators can care for themselves and students in the face of difficulties and an increased emphasis on the “banking model” in higher education (Freire, 1970).
The outputs from these discussions and contributions as well as our lived experiences are collated here under three broad categories: presence, socialisation and engagement, and digital (un)tethering and self-care. “Presence” will explore perceptions of visibility and highlight the benefits and dangers of students occupying online spaces. “Socialisation and engagement” will examine differing views of how student engagement is enacted and how designing humanistic approaches can help build a strong learner community. “Digital (un)tethering and self-care” will highlight the importance of designing in self-care and implementing activities that ensure flexibility, autonomy and social contributions to help circumvent overload and burnout.
