Authors: Machado Melissa Riani Costa , Vasconcelos Ana Maria Nogales , Oliveira Adolfo Samuel de
Published: November 2020

Resumo Este artigo tem como objetivo identificar quais sistemas estaduais de ensino preveem a organização do ensino em ciclos escolares e o regime de progressão continuada dos alunos. Pretende-se, ainda, investigar em que medida essas previsões têm sido implantadas nas escolas. Para tanto, além de consulta direta às secretarias de educação e da análise da legislação estadual, recorre-se a dados do Censo Escolar. Os resultados nos permitem concluir que, na educação básica das redes estaduais brasileiras, há predomínio da organização seriada e dos regimes de progressão regular ou parcial dos alunos. Não obstante, há sistemas de ensino que apresentaram maior adesão às políticas de não repetência de forma consistente ao longo do tempo, como os dos estados de Minas Gerais, São Paulo e Mato Grosso.

Authors: Vazquez Daniel Arias , Pereira Alexandre Barbosa
Published: November 2020

Resumo Este artigo visa a compreender o posicionamento político e a formação de opinião dos jovens a partir da aplicação de um survey junto aos estudantes de escolas públicas do município de Guarulhos, São Paulo. Por meio de análises descritivas e modelos de regressão logística, buscou-se identificar os determinantes de uma posição mais progressista ou mais conversadora em relação a diferentes temas políticos, considerando características socioeconômicas e relacionais. Os resultados mostram que a proximidade com a família, com determinadas denominações religiosas ou com o grupo de pares pode influenciar na formação de opinião. Da mesma forma, a questão de gênero e a autoidentificação como pobre e de periferia exercem influência importante no posicionamento em questões políticas relativas a esses grupos.

Resumo: Introdução: Como os profissionais da área médica terão que lidar com a questão da morte, este trabalho teve como objetivos identificar os sentimentos dos estudantes de Medicina e dos médicos residentes do Brasil ante o morrer e a morte, e compreender como eles vivenciam a própria formação durante a graduação e a especialização para esse enfrentamento. Método: Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática da literatura feita com base na metodologia PRISMA. A revisão foi conduzida entre agosto e dezembro de 2019 com os descritores “estudantes de medicina”, “medical students”, “morte” e “death”, pesquisados na Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde (BVS). Resultados: Dos 372 artigos identificados na busca, 18 estudos publicados atendiam a todos os critérios de inclusão e exclusão estabelecidos. Quanto à análise dos artigos em relação aos sentimentos dos estudantes de Medicina e dos médicos residentes perante situações de morte, percebeu-se que a maioria dos estudos relatou experiências negativas, como medo, insegurança, tristeza, raiva e culpa. Apesar de ainda serem incipientes as disciplinas e estratégias institucionalizadas, parece que, com o decorrer do curso e da prática profissional, os sentimentos negativos são amenizados, porque se vivenciam com mais frequência contextos de terminalidade e morte, oportunizando, assim, o aprendizado por meio da observação e postura perante essas situações práticas, visto que a morte e suas interfaces fazem parte do cotidiano médico. Conclusões: Os estudantes de Medicina e os médicos residentes do Brasil apresentam desconforto e dificuldade em lidar com os processos de morte e do morrer. Para modificar esse cenário de despreparo, é consenso entre eles a necessidade de incluir disciplinas teórico-práticas de Tanatologia, Cuidados Paliativos e Psicologia Médica no currículo das faculdades de Medicina e reformular o conteúdo delas de forma a abordar mais profundamente o processo de morte no contexto prático.

Published: November 2020

RESUMO: A Abordagem CTS tem se preocupado com as implicações dos estudos sobre as relações entre Ciência, Tecnologia e Sociedade (CTS) na área de ensino de ciências. Nessa perspectiva, o ensino deve se basear numa visão de ciência como processo social, assumindo que o desenvolvimento científico e tecnológico não é neutro. Com o objetivo de ampliar os horizontes da área quanto às discussões contemporâneas sobre a função social do conhecimento, especialmente o conhecimento científico-tecnológico, o presente artigo tem como objetivo apresentar a Teoria da Sociedade do Conhecimento, na acepção do sociólogo Nico Stehr, como um referencial teórico possível para a análise sociológica do papel do conhecimento nas sociedades modernas e apresentar as potencialidades dessa teoria para o ensino de ciências.

RESUMO: Em que medida a evasão e as experiências discentes nos cursos de graduação em Física estão relacionadas à pressão por excelência acadêmica? Baseados em leituras da sociologia da educação, realizamos uma análise de dados coletados no curso de Física de uma universidade brasileira. As evidências indicam que estudantes de famílias privilegiadas tendem a abandonar o curso, mas os que permanecem costumam ser bem-sucedidos. Ao mesmo tempo, a evasão não se relaciona com o desempenho acadêmico: há estudantes excelentes que desejam sair, bem como estudantes de baixo desempenho que desejam permanecer. A austeridade da organização curricular contribui para que os estudantes tenham lacunas em sua formação. Com algumas exceções, os professores são descritos como figuras opressoras, exigentes e sem empatia. Por outro lado, relações competitivas são percebidas entre os próprios estudantes. Enfim, ainda que a evasão não tenha relação com o desempenho acadêmico, a busca por excelência estrutura as experiências dos estudantes no curso.

Desafíos para la Educación Popular en América Latina hoy
Authors: Holliday Oscar Jara
Published: November 2020

Los procesos de Educación Popular en todos los campos siempre se ven desafiados por las situaciones y condiciones del contexto en el que se desarrollan. No tienen sentido en sí mismos, aislados, sino solo en términos de la respuesta práctica y teórica a estos desafíos. Este artículo es un ensayo crítico y reflexivo, a través del cual desarrollamos cinco aspectos interrelacionados que marcan el contexto de nuestra región en América Latina y el Caribe hoy: 1) democracia liberal desgastada; 2) fundamentalismo del mercado; 3) ofensiva de restauración conservadora; 4) mayor desigualdad, exclusión y polarización social y política; 5) refuerzo de la lógica y los valores dominantes. Luego, delineamos callejones sin salida, posibilidades y horizontes de la educación popular frente a estos problemas e indicamos las perspectivas actuales para la actividad de los protagonistas de las experiencias orientadas por la Educación Popular.
¿Cuán reconocidos como autoridad se sienten los profesores principiantes y a qué factores lo atribuyen?
Authors: Poblete Guillermo Zamora , Pardo Marisa Meza , Vial Pilar Cox
Published: November 2020

Resumen Actualmente la construcción de una relación de autoridad pedagógica constituye un desafío y un foco de tensión, especialmente para los profesores principiantes. Hoy los maestros no tienen garantizado el respeto, la escucha y el reconocimiento sólo por el ejercicio del rol. Ello significa que los profesores no detentan automáticamente de una autoridad otorgada por la institución escolar, tal como fue planteado en el orden tradicional. En este contexto, el objetivo general de la presente investigación es examinar el grado en que los profesores principiantes chilenos se sienten reconocidos como autoridad y los factores que consideran que favorecen y obstaculizan este reconocimiento. Con este propósito se aplica un cuestionario a 576 profesores principiantes (de uno a cinco años de experiencia) de educación secundaria que atienden a estudiantes de distintos grupos socioeconómicos. Los resultados generales indican que el reconocimiento de la autoridad que presentan los profesores principiantes se encuentra especialmente vinculado a su capital profesional y al perfil social de sus alumnos. También se constata que los colegas y directivos constituyen importantes fuentes de apoyo para sentirse reconocidos. El estudio concluye que ante el declive de la institución escolar tradicional, que otorgaba un piso de autoridad a los profesores, hoy el soporte ha sido reemplazado por la comunidad escolar próxima, aquella en donde trabaja el profesor, siendo los pares y directivos los principales garantes del reconocimiento profesional.

Authors: Leong Eng-Choon , Abuel-Naga Hossam , Goli Venkata Siva Naga Sai , Jha Bhagwanjee , Pathak Pankaj , Singh Devendra Narain
Published: November 2020

The huge number of fatalities due to the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has imposed an unprecedented pressure on existing burial facilities. Thus, mass burial is being used in different parts of the world to cope with this unusual situation. As a dead body might be contagious for at least hours, if not days, there is a need to manage/design/construct the mass burial considering the safe handling of coffins and other environmental, social, economical and ethical/dignity aspects. However, the guidelines of the World Health Organization do not thoroughly address the potential risk associated with groundwater pollution due to mass burial construction. Hence, the present study discusses the potential risk of groundwater pollution in mass burial sites and sheds light on the factors that control the survival/retention of bacteria and viruses in porous media. Furthermore, using the available knowledge on designing/monitoring of municipal/industrial waste disposal sites, a cost-effective and simple construction method of mass burial is proposed to mitigate its potential environmental impact.
Do nurses have the switch factor?
Authors: Mulders Greta , Uitslager Nanda , Alavian Sharon , Wareing Anne , Stein Oldenburg Kathi
Published: November 2020

Introduction

Switching between clotting factor products is becoming increasingly common as product choice increases and financial pressure grows to choose the most cost-effective options. Guidance on carrying out the switch recommends a complex and long process that may benefit from being defined in a protocol. Haemophilia nurses may be responsible for managing product switches; anecdotal evidence suggests that clinical practice is variable.

Aim

To explore the role of specialist nurses in switching between clotting factor products and their use of a protocol.

Method

Nurses attending the 2018 World Federation of Hemophilia Congress were surveyed about clinical practice at their treatment centre and use of a protocol for switching clotting factor products.

Results

Of 192 nurses attending the conference, 49 nurses returned completed questionnaires, 45 of which were included in the study after exclusions. Responses were exclusively from economically developed countries. Almost all respondents (96%) had direct experience of switching. Half of those who responded to a question about protocol-based switching reported that switches were based on a protocol. When authorship was reported, the protocol was written by haemophilia nurses in about half of cases. Practice about blood testing to determine individual pharmacokinetic parameters prior to the switch was variable, but most nurses (86%) reported screening for inhibitors prior to switching. Respondents agreed to share their protocols among their peers, although only four were received by the research team.

Conclusions

Clinical practice in switching between clotting factor products is variable. Some nurses are switching treatments for patients without the supported of a written protocol, whereas others are involved in writing and implementing protocols. Sharing protocols is a first step in helping to establish best practice.
THE INFLUENCE OF ACCOUNTING RISKS ON THE QUALITY OF INFORMATION
Authors: Gutsalenko L.V. , Marchuk U.O.
Published: November 2020

The evolution of risk theory and its interpretation by economists of the neoclassical school are considered. The reasons that give rise to business risks are identified. It is emphasized that risk is objective, but correlated with subjective uncertainty or objective correlation of subjective uncertainty. The focus is on the impact of risk on the formation of performance of economic entities. It is proved that risk minimization is impossible without the availability of timely and reliable information about changes in the market environment, which is provided by accounting for the facts of economic situations. Accounting risks have been identified as an integral part of business risks.

It is proved that in order to achieve efficient management, control is one of the important functions in the management system, because it combines accounting, analysis, forecasting, regulation of enterprises. It was found that control can be considered as a management function, and internal control (audit), which ensures the effectiveness of the control function of accounting - as a subsystem of accounting. It is determined that in order to minimize risks and ensure the usefulness of accounting information to users, it should have the following main characteristics: be objectively prepared (registration and reporting of accounting transactions should be presented from a neutral point of view, without any prejudices that could create the reader has a misconception about the financial condition, results or cash flows of the business); have a sequence of recording (fixation of information with consistent application of accounting standards, and presentation of consolidated results equally for all presented periods); the accountant prepares financial statements that contain specific information necessary for management to make a decision; be reliable and complete.

It is noted that strengthening the effectiveness of the control function of accounting is possible under the condition of functioning in the management system of the internal audit service. The basic imperatives for reducing accounting risks are modeled. The strategic components that improve the quality of accounting information are identified.

Aim: to analyze the association of the ESR1 gene polymorphic loci rs2234693, rs9340799, and rs3798577 with developing preeclampsia (PE) with fetal growth retardation (FGR). Materials and Methods. The study was performed while analyzing a sample of 400 women: 76 pregnant women with PE and FGR and 324 with a physiological course of pregnancy. Three polymorphic loci of the ESR1 gene (rs2234693, rs9340799, and rs3798577) were genotyped. Functional effects of polymorphic loci were evaluated by using the online programs HaploReg (epigenetic effects) and GTEx Portal (relation to gene expression). Results. The development of PE and FGR is associated with the G allele and GG genotype rs9340799 of the ESR1 gene (OR = 1.38; pperm = 0.04 and OR = 2.00; pperm = 0.04, respectively), the T allele rs3798577 of the ESR1 gene (OR = 1.46; pperm = 0.01), and the TG haplotype of the polymorphic loci rs2234693–rs9340799 of the ESR1 gene (OR = 2.08; pperm = 0.009). Polymorphic locirs2234693, rs9340799 ESR1 gene and rs3798577 have an important functional significance in human body being located in the evolutionarily conserved DNA region, affect affinity of regulatory DNA motifs to the eight transcription factors as well as ESR1 gene expression in the thyroid gland, which are positioned in the promoter and enhancer region, DNAse 1 hypersensitivity motif within diverse organs and tissues, and display an important pathogenetic effect for development of PE and FGR. Conclusion. Polymorphic loci rs2234693, rs9340799 and rs3798577 of the ESR1 gene are associated with developing PE and FGR.
Digital Currencies: Problems of Legal Regulation
Authors: Sitnik A. A.
Published: November 2020

The paper analyzes the provisions of the Federal Law of July 31, 2020, № 259-FZ “On Digital Financial Assets, Digital Currency and Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation” concerning the legal regulation of circulation of digital currencies. The author elucidates legal definitions of such concepts as “digital currency”, “organization of digital currency issuance”, “digital currency issuance”, “organization of circulation of digital currency” and focuses on their shortcomings. The paper also highlights the features of digital currencies, describes types of transactions with this financial instrument, outlines the circle of subjects of relations arising in the process of circulation of digital currencies. In general, it must be recognized that Law No. 259-FZ failed toresult in the creation of a comprehensive system of legal regulation of circulation of digital currencies, its provisions are piecemeal and sometimes controversial in nature. At the same time, the legal act under consideration is of fundamental importance because, for the first time at the legislative level, it has enshrined the rules governing public relations that are being formed in the process of circulation of digital currencies.
Para-Public Organizations as Subjects of Financial Law
Authors: Gorlova E. N.
Published: November 2020

The paper examines the classification of subjects of financial law; it is proposed that, along with public and private entities, they should also include para-public entities. The authors suggest defining para-public entities as authorized legal entities established by law for exercising public administration, providing public services and performing other public functions. This category is based on the need to implement public interests in modern conditions. The author analyses foreign experience concerning delegation of government powers to para-public organizations in Brazil and the United Kingdom. The author has examined the legal status of non-state organizations, performing public functions. It is proposed to use a contractual method of regulation of financial relations, including the application of standard form contracts (public contracts) in financial law. The introduction of the institution of contract, autonomy, financial independence and self-government into the mechanism of public administration will help to solve a number of key problems of financial activity. At the same time, it is necessary to develop the institution of standard form contracts (public contracts) already existing in financial law, by which we propose to refer to the agreement concluded in the established form for public purposes by two or more entities, one of which is a public authority, and aimed at the realization of the public interest.
Robust Empirical Time–Frequency Relations for Seismic Spectral Amplitudes, Part 2: Model Uncertainty and Optimal Parameterization
Authors: Safarshahi Maryam , Morozov Igor B.
Published: November 2020

In a companion article, Safarshahi and Morozov (2020) argued that construction of distance- and frequency-dependent models for seismic-wave amplitudes should include four general elements: (1) a sufficiently detailed (parametric or nonparametric) model of frequency-independent spreading, capturing all essential features of observations; (2) model parameters with well-defined and nonoverlapping physical meanings; (3) joint inversion for multiple parameters, including the geometrical spreading, Q, κ, and source and receiver couplings; and (4) the use of additional dataset-specific criteria of model quality, while fitting the logarithms of seismic amplitudes. Some of these elements are present in existing models, but, taken together, they are poorly understood and require an integrated approach. Such an approach was illustrated by detailed analysis of an S-wave amplitude dataset from southern Iran. The resulting model is based on a frequency-independent Q, and matches the data closer than conventional models and across the entire epicentral-distance range. Here, we complete the analysis of this model by evaluating the uncertainties and trade-offs of its parameters. Two types of trade-offs are differentiated: one caused by a (possibly) limited model parameterization and the second due to statistical data errors. Data bootstrapping shows that with adequate parameterization, attenuation properties Q, κ, and geometrical spreading parameters are resolved well and show moderate trade-offs due to measurement errors. Using the principal component analysis of these trade-offs, an optimal (trade-off free) parameterization of seismic amplitudes is obtained. By contrast, when assuming theoretical values for certain model parameters and using multistep inversion procedures (as commonly done), parameter trade-offs increase dramatically and become difficult to assess. In particular, the frequency-dependent Q correlates with the distribution of the source and receiver-site factors, and also with biases in the resulting median data residuals. In the new model, these trade-offs are removed using an improved parameterization of geometrical spreading, constant Q, and model quality constraints.
MPC of Sewage Treatment Process

Published: November 2020

Sewage treatment is one of the main methods to promote the recycling of water resources. The control goal of sewage treatment process is to reduce energy consumption under the premise that the effluent quality reaches the standard. In recent years, model predictive control (MPC) has attracted some attention in sewage treatment. Neural network is widely used in control field because of its strong online learning ability. BP neural network is selected as the prediction layer and control layer of MPC and applied to sewage treatment plant to realize on-line control of dissolved oxygen and nitrate. The training index of traditional neural network usually only selects the error between measured value and set value as the variable, and now the change of control quantity is also taken as the training index variable of control layer to adjust the weight relation between them to get the best control effect. Considering that different weather conditions will have a greater impact on the water inflow, different coefficients of the two can be selected to achieve better results in different weather.

Published: November 2020

Gas-phase auto-ignition delay times (IDTs) of methane/“air” (21% O2/79% Ar) mixtures were measured behind reflected shock waves, using a kinetic shock tube. Experiments were performed at fixed pressure of 1.8 MPa and equivalence ratios of 0.5 and 1.0, over the temperature range of 800–1000 K. Overall, the effect of equivalence ratio on IDT is negligible at entire temperatures measured in this study. The difference from traditional ignition regime at high temperatures, the undiluted methane/air mixtures present a four-stage ignition process at lower temperatures, namely deflagration delay, deflagration, deflagration-detonation transition, and detonation. Four popular kinetic mechanisms, UBC Mech 2.1, GRI Mech 3.0, Aramco Mech 2.0, and USC Mech 2.0, were used to simulate the new measurements. Only UBC Mech 2.1 showed satisfactory predictions in the reactivity of the undiluted methane mixtures; it was, thus, adopted to perform sensitivity analysis for identifying dominant reactions in the ignition process. The difference in channels contributing ȮH radicals causes a reduced global activation energy with decreasing temperatures.Keywords: Methane; multistage ignition; shock tube; sensitivity analysis
Yellow Nail Syndrome – Diagnosis, Differential Diagnosis, Treatment Options
Authors: Haneke Eckart
Published: November 2020

Yellow nail syndrome (YNS) is a rare, but relatively well characterized triad of slow growing yellow nails, lymphedema of the distal portions of the upper and lower limbs as well as chronic infection of the respiratory tract and/or pleural effusion. The most characteristic features of this syndrome are the nail changes that allow the diagnosis to be made even if the triad is not complete. Yellow discoloration of the nails is nonspecific and often seen in onychomycosis, nail psoriasis, a variety of other conditions that are associated with onycholysis. Distal limb edema may not be very pronounced. In addition to the bronchopulmonary disorders, malignancies, chronic heart conditions and gastrointestinal diseases may occur. Treatment after exclusion of non-YNS conditions is aimed at finding the underlying systemic disorder, which usually requires a very long therapy and a lot of patience both from the patient as well as the treating physician.

Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Labour Demand
Authors: Hui Gong
Published: November 2020

Artificial intelligence (AI) is set to influence every aspect of our lives. As a technology platform, AI can automate tasks previously performed by labour or create new tasks and activities in which humans can be productively employed. Recent technological change has been biased towards automation, with insufficient focus on creating new tasks where labour can be productively employed. The consequences of this choice have been stagnating labour demand, declining labour share in national income, rising inequality and lowering productivity growth. The current tendency is to develop AI in the direction of further automation, with better economic and social outcomes.

Data and the use of data for teaching and learning can be a powerful tool. However, data can also be overwhelming or underused if teachers and leaders do not have adequate systems, supports, or mindsets to facilitate effective data use. The Data, Knowledge, Action programme of research involves early childhood researchers and teachers working together to design and try out new data systems to produce useful information to guide pedagogical change and strengthen learning outcomes. This article outlines conceptual processes and tangible supports we’ve embedded in our work to develop the habits of mind and skills to use data effectively.
Language strategies for “Early Childhood Education”? Newspeak and He Taonga te Tamaiti
Authors: Gibbons Andrew , Tesar Marek , Pasley And , Stewart Georgina
Published: November 2020

The early learning action plan 2019–2029, He Taonga te Tamaiti / Every Child a Taonga, ushers in a new era of thinking about the governance of early childhood education (ECE). The policy language has changed, with a shift from “early childhood education” to the “early learning system”. This article starts from the concern that if a teacher was to search through the action plan and note where the phrases “early childhood”, “early childhood education”, or “early childhood care and education”, “early learning”, “early learning services”, “early learning provision”, and “early learning system” occur, they would begin to paint a landscape of the way in which the language of governance has been changing in ECE. In this article we ask: What does this shift in language mean for the early childhood sector? To interrogate this question, we will explore elements of the language of the plan, and question the discourse of several key changes. We begin with a turn to the theorisation of government through language via the work of George Orwell, which align with Michel Foucault’s concept of governmentality, which informs ECE theory for policy, research, and practice, and how particular ways of thinking are produced in and by the dominant discourses of ECE.
“But I had it first!” Young children, possession, and social problem solving
Authors: Treweek Julie , Kelly-Ware Janette
Published: November 2020

This qualitative case study research explored children’s social disputes in one New Zealand kindergarten. The disputes typically related to the possession of resources and space. “First possession” was found to be significant, hence the name of this article. The notion that children have to experience “possession” and “ownership” to learn about these fundamental concepts was reinforced. Young children’s problem solving during peer disputes was identified and teachers were seen “stepping back”, thus providing children with time and space to work through their disputes. Teachers reading this article will recognise the importance of having a shared philosophy that drives teaching practice. They will also be provoked to consider how they support children to problem solve and work through their disputes with others, and consider video as a reflective tool for improving their practice.

Many countries have their biofuel policy programs in place as part of their overall strategy to achieve sustainable development. Among biofuels, bioethanol as a promising alternative to gasoline is of substantial interest. However, there is limited availability of a sufficient quantity of bioethanol to meet demands due to bottlenecks in the present technologies to convert non-edible feedstocks, including lignocelluloses. This review article presents and critically discusses the recent advances in the pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass, with a focus on the use of green solvents, including ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents, followed by enzymatic saccharification using auxiliary proteins for the efficient saccharification of pretreated biomass. Different techniques used in strain improvement strategies to develop hyper-producing deregulated lignocellulolytic strains are also compared and discussed. The advanced techniques employed for fermentation of mixed sugars contained in lignocellulosic hydrolysates for maximizing bioethanol production are summarized with an emphasis on pathway and transporters engineering for xylose assimilation. Further, the integration of different steps is suggested and discussed for efficient biomass utilization and improved ethanol yields and productivity.
