Self-Help Groups: Bridging the Gap for Financial Inclusion
Authors: Radha Thangarajan
Published: December 2024

Financial inclusion is very basic necessity in the economic progress of a country. But in most of the developing countries majority people are out of financial awareness ambit. Self -Help Group is one feasible way for the financial inclusion particular in rural area. Self – Help Group (SHG) is a small voluntary association of people, preferably from the same socio-economic background. They come together for the purpose of solving their common problems through self-help and mutual help. The SHG promotes small savings among its members. The savings are kept with a bank. This common fund is in the name of the SHG. Over the last two decades, in India, the Self-Help Groups have achieved many millstones. Various models and innovations, in terms of products and services, have emerged in the recent past in an attempt to achieve greater financial inclusion across the country. SHG are the key for enhancing the saving attitude among people of the country. Thus, no doubt, SHGs are primarily started to overcome financial problem of the neglected section of the society, today also, keeping the financing function as the first priority, SGHs help to boost financial inclusion. Further, the present study discloses that the SHGs members are empowered not only through micro financing activities but also by allied different initiatives. The study reveals that after joining the self-help groups, financial awareness improved and the socio- economic status of the members in the family and society are being increased day after day. Thus, to bring weaker and neglected sections of the society to main stream, self-help group can be one of the strong instruments.
Relevansi Gereja: Mendorong Pertumbuhan Spiritualitas Generasi Z di Tengah Budaya Individualisme
Authors: Wulur Hersen Geny
Published: December 2024

Generation Z shows strong characteristics of individualism, reflected in their high freedom of speech, strong self-autonomy, and tendency to live self-centered lives. They typically dislike being hindered and are accustomed to doing everything themselves to achieve their personal goals. This research aims to explore how individualism influences the spiritual growth of Generation Z. Research using a qualitative approach with literature review methods reveals that Generation Z tends to view religion or church as something more personal and less relevant in their daily lives. Negative stereotypes about the church arise due to their perception that their freedom of speech is hindered, leading to feelings of spiritual and religious oppression. To address these challenges, churches need to adopt approaches that meet the needs of Generation Z. Based on the results of the literature review analysis, it appears that through mentoring and building healthy communities, churches can create environments that support Generation Z in developing their own spirituality.

Does Using Artificial Intelligence in Citizen Science Support Volunteers’ Learning? An Experimental Study in Ornithology
Authors: Pankiv Khrystyna , Kloetzer Laure
Published: December 2024

One of the oldest and largest biodiversity-related citizen science (CS) projects is eBird (https://ebird.org/home), developed by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. It provides a mobile application for birdwatchers to record checklists of when, where, and how they have seen or heard birds. The Cornell Lab has also developed a mobile application, Merlin, which uses a deep convolutional neural network to help users automatically identify bird species from photos, sounds (converted to spectrograms), or descriptions. This research investigates how the use of machine learning (ML) classification models affects the learning of novice birders. Our participants (computer science students with no previous background in ornithology) were randomly divided into three groups: one using the eBird application and identifying bird species themselves; one using the Merlin application, which uses ML to automatically identify birds from photos or sounds; and a control group. Participants were tested on their knowledge of birds before and after participating in the project to see how using the ML classification model affected their learning. We also interviewed selected participants after the post-test to understand what they had done and what might explain the results. Our results show that novice participants who participate in a CS project for even a short time significantly improve their content knowledge of familiar birds in their neighbourhood, and that eBird users outperform Merlin users on the knowledge post-test. Although AI may improve volunteer productivity and retention, there is a risk that it may reduce their learning. Further research with different participant profiles and project designs is needed to understand how to optimise volunteer productivity, retention, and learning in AI-assisted CS projects.
Supporting Human and Machine Co-Learning in Citizen Science: Lessons From Gravity Spy
Authors: Østerlund Carsten , Crowston Kevin , Jackson Corey B. , Wu Yunan , Smith Alexander O. , Katsaggelos Aggelos K.
Published: December 2024

We explore the bi-directional relationship between human and machine learning in citizen science. Theoretically, the study draws on the zone of proximal development (ZPD) concept, which allows us to describe AI augmentation of human learning, human augmentation of machine learning, and how tasks can be designed to facilitate co-learning. The study takes a design-science approach to explore the design, deployment, and evaluations of the Gravity Spy citizen science project. The findings highlight the challenges and opportunities of co-learning, where both humans and machines contribute to each other’s learning and capabilities. The study takes its point of departure in the literature on co-learning and develops a framework for designing projects where humans and machines mutually enhance each other’s learning. The research contributes to the existing literature by developing a dynamic approach to human-AI augmentation, by emphasizing that the ZPD supports ongoing learning for volunteers and keeps machine learning aligned with evolving data. The approach offers potential benefits for project scalability, participant engagement, and automation considerations while acknowledging the importance of tutorials, community access, and expert involvement in supporting learning.

In the era of rapidly growing astronomical data, the gap between data collection and analysis is a significant barrier, especially for teams searching for rare scientific objects. Although machine learning (ML) can quickly parse large data sets, it struggles to robustly identify scientifically interesting objects, a task at which humans excel. Human-in-the-loop (HITL) strategies that combine the strengths of citizen science (CS) and ML offer a promising solution, but first, we need to better understand the relationship between human- and machine-identified samples. In this work, we present a case study from the Galaxy Zoo: Weird & Wonderful project, where volunteers inspected ~200,000 astronomical images—processed by an ML-based anomaly detection model—to identify those with unusual or interesting characteristics. Volunteer-selected images with common astrophysical characteristics had higher consensus, while rarer or more complex ones had lower consensus. This suggests low-consensus choices shouldn’t be dismissed in further explorations. Additionally, volunteers were better at filtering out uninteresting anomalies, such as image artifacts, which the machine struggled with. We also found that a higher ML-generated anomaly score that indicates images’ low-level feature anomalousness was a better predictor of the volunteers’ consensus choice. Combining a locus of high volunteer-consensus images within the ML learnt feature space and anomaly score, we demonstrated a decision boundary that can effectively isolate images with unusual and potentially scientifically interesting characteristics. Using this case study, we lay important guidelines for future research studies looking to adapt and operationalize human-machine collaborative frameworks for efficient anomaly detection in big data.
Neuroplasticity And Adult Learning: Can An Old Dog Learn New Tricks?
Authors: Eliadis Andriana
Published: December 2024

Adult learning has always remained a topic of discussion among researchers. Thus, this study aimed to extend this debate in the context of literature. This is a qualitative literature-based review that has focused on prior studies. Following the comprehensive inclusion and exclusion criteria, the data was gathered from academic journals and books. The results reported a strong connection between neuroplasticity and adult learning. They negated the old dogma that the brain's cells never regenerate, and adults cannot learn as effectively as when they were young. The findings highlighted that adults taking a healthy and nutritional diet and exercising regularly can learn as effectively as the younger ones do as their brain cells can regenerate. This research has focused on all the available literature, but future studies may extend it by focusing on the latest studies. Further, they can empirically differentiate the learning abilities of young and adult individuals.

A tradução na/da semiperiferia: a literatura brasileira na Roménia
Authors: Manole Veronica
Published: December 2024

Neste trabalho esboçamos uma breve história das traduções de literatura brasileira na Roménia, tentando ao mesmo tempo descrever o papel das mesmas no campo tradutológico romeno. Identificamos os autores mais traduzidos, os tradutores mais prolíficos, as práticas de tradução (inclusive a retradução, a republicação, a tradução indireta) e salientamos o papel da censura no caso de certas traduções. A nossa análise tenta descrever uma dupla marginalidade: por um lado, o papel da tradução no âmbito de uma cultura semiperiférica (Roménia); por outro lado, a posição de uma literatura semiperiférica (Brasil) no campo tradutológico de uma cultura semiperiférica.
Influence of culture media and Trichoderma spp. on the growth and sporulation of Pseudocercospora griseola in vitro
Authors: Scortegagna Pâmela Vanessa , Pria Maristella Dalla , Dias Carlos Tadeu dos Santos , Rinaldi Polyana Elvira Christmann
Published: December 2024

Angular leaf spot (Pseudocercospora griseola) impacts the productivity of bean crops (Phaseolus vulgaris). In culture media, the pathogen P. griseola requires nutritional, light, and temperature control for its growth and sporulation. For the management of angular leaf spot, it is estimated that biological control with Trichoderma species, through parasitism or production of antifungal metabolites, is efficient. This research sought to identify the best culture medium for the growth and sporulation of P. griseola and evaluate its interaction with Trichoderma spp, through antagonism and production of volatile and non-volatile metabolites. P. griseola sporulation was stimulated on oat-agar and bean leaf extract-agar media. The interaction between Trichoderma species and P. griseola had an antagonistic effect, and the metabolites produced by antagonist inhibited the growth and sporulation of the pathogen. These results indicate the potential of Trichoderma spp. for the management of angular leaf spot, offering an alternative to the use of fungicides.

What Is an Animal Companion? Revisiting the Barnbaum-Varner Definition
Authors: Sigsbee Dustin
Published: December 2024

Many animal ethicists have shifted from using the term “pet” to the term “animal companion,” but what exactly is an animal companion? Arguably, the most comprehensive description of what an animal companion is comes from Gary Varner, who builds upon the work of Deborah Barnbaum. This article examines what I call the Barnbaum-Varner definition of an animal companion. I suggest that while the definition mostly captures what we think of when we think of an animal companion, there are potential philosophical issues that may impede constructive use of this definition. A revised version of the Barnbaum-Varner definition is developed to avoid these issues.
Picturing Pigs: A New Aesthetic
Authors: Johnstone Shannon , Casteline Jane M.
Published: December 2024

The depiction of pigs as caricatures and happy farmed animals represents a strategic marketing ploy on behalf of the U.S. Big Agriculture industry to distance the public from real pigs and dull empathy toward farmed animals. As two animal-loving photographers and animal rights activists who live in North Carolina (the state with the second-largest producer of pork in the United States), we created a billboard advocacy project called “Picturing Pigs” to counter Big Agriculture's marketing through positive imagery of rescued pigs. This article contains three parts. First, we discuss the caricatures of pigs in advertising and the media and critique these depictions through a critical animal studies lens. We focus on how these depictions impact how we think about and treat pigs. Second, we discuss our “Picturing Pigs” billboard campaign featuring photography that highlights the benevolent and positive attributes of pigs—qualities missing from media representations. We discuss the resistance we met and the impact the project has had. Third, we share Lucy's story, a piglet we met while working on “Picturing Pigs.” Lucy's story provides an example of the entanglements that pigs face being seen as anything other than a product.

Authors: Yang Suyi
Published: December 2024

Since the 20th century, Chinese ink figure painting has pioneered diverse expressive forms along the path of "East-West integration." With the development of the times and changing aesthetic demands, questions about the development and creation of figure paintings, which emphasize moulding, inevitably relate to the interplay between brushwork and form. This article, starting from the essence of Chinese ink figure painting and combining the creative practices of Chinese ink painters, proposes strengthening sketch training to enhance the understanding of form. It also advocates for life studies to delve into real-life experiences, aiming to convey the spirit of the era through the depiction of figures. The focus is placed on the figures themselves, followed by integration with brush and ink to address the relationship between form and brushwork. The intention is to connect with contemporary art in a diverse artistic environment to advance Chinese ink figure painting.

Theoretical Origins and Implications of the Western Linear Development Models in Contemporary International Relations and Development Economics
Authors: Zhang Zhaorui
Published: December 2024

Beginning with Lenin's criticism of imperialism and working through the modernization theory presented by academics such as Walt Rostow, this study attempts to investigate these development theories' theoretical roots and consequences. This paper examines the theoretical origin and contemporary implications of Imperialism, neocolonialism, neoliberalism, and trade liberalization, focusing on applying linear development models in international relations and development economics. Using critical theoretical frameworks, including Lenin's theory on imperialism, dependency theory, and modernization theory, analyzed the transformation of economic control from colonialism to the neocolonial practice perpetuated by transnational corporations and international monetary institutions. Cases including the reconstruction of the Haitian earthquake in 2010, President Trumans inaugural address, and Chiles neoliberal economic reforms under Pinochet provide an empirical examination of how trade liberalization and neoliberal policy strengthen the economic reliance of developing countries and increase their internal inequality. By challenging the traditional Western linear development model, this paper criticized how the global economic system perpetuates a hierarchical relationship between the Global South and North.

Authors: Ren Ye
Published: December 2024

Inside the realm of second language acquisition, Chinese university students encounter significant subjective challenges, particularly Foreign Language Anxiety (FLA), which is widely recognized for its broad impact. As globalization and foreign language instruction intensify, FLA has become a key research area in education and psychology. A wealth of literature has delved into FLAs influence on learners psychological well-being, cognition, and behavior. This study systematically reviews the literature to explore the role and effects of FLA in Chinese students second language learning. It reveals that FLA impacts emotional states and cognitive processing, leading to heightened emotional filtering that impedes language acquisition. This anxiety can result in psychological, cognitive, and behavioral stress, negatively affecting language development and academic success. Employing a literature analysis approach, the study compiles and analyzes both domestic and international sources, identifying the ubiquity of FLA among Chinese university students and its detrimental effects on academic performance, mental health, and physical well-being. The research aims to inform educational practices and guide the development of teaching strategies to mitigate FLA, thereby enhancing the second language acquisition of Chinese university students.

Analysis of the Impact of Family Planning on Chinese Society
Authors: Xu Zhongyi
Published: December 2024

In the 1980s, China implemented the one-child policy as a means to manage population growth during its reform and opening-up period. This policy not only contributed to a reduction in crime rates associated with overpopulation but also empowered women to enter the workforce, thereby stimulating economic development. By 2016, the two-child policy was introduced to address gender discrimination and further promote women's rights. The policy underwent another transformation in 2021 with the introduction of the three-child policy, aimed at tackling the growing issue of an aging population in China. This paper examines the impact of family planning policies on Chinese society and women's rights from both economic and sociological perspectives. Through an analysis of specific cases alongside historical context, this study illustrates the intrinsic connection between birth policies and China's economic development as well as women's social status. The discussion highlights how China's family planning initiatives have influenced societal dynamics and enhanced women's rights, demonstrating improvements in their social standing while concurrently reducing crime rates. The evolution of these policiesfrom one-child to two-child, and now three-childreflects China's strategic response to demographic challenges, underscoring the relationship between fertility policies and women's empowerment.
Exploring the Transformation of Education for Children with Disabilities in China: Implementation and Challenges of Inclusive Education Policies
Authors: Chen Sijin
Published: December 2024

This paper examines China's significant shift in the education of disabled children from segregated special education to the inclusive "Learning in Regular Classroom" (LRC) model, in alignment with international trends. The elitist structure in the educational system, geographic concerns, and teacher resources are the three main obstacles both inside and outside of China's educational system that are the subject of this paper. The paper analyses the theoretical and practical challenges encountered in implementing inclusive education (IE). Additionally, it analyzes the factors contributing to the inability of Chinese society to accept children with disabilities.The paper evaluates the effectiveness and reasonableness of the Chinese government's approaches to resolving these issues and emphasizes that, in reality, it is doubtful if children with disabilities are actually granted their full right to an education. The paper suggests that the Chinese government could consider using technology to promote IE and try to change people's prejudices against children with disabilities.
Impact of Social Isolation During COVID-19 on Adolescents' Mental Health Issues
Authors: Jiang Xinyan
Published: December 2024

The COVID-19 epidemic has significantly impacted adolescents' mental health due to the mandatory social isolation strategy enforced by the global government, which enforces indoor segregation. Since the disruption that has been caused in the present scenario in the daily life pattern, people had never faced such disruption earlier, which has caused significant mental stress among adolescents. The present study will investigate how social isolation affects the general mental health of adolescents following the 2019 coronavirus disease crises. Specifically, it examines the frequency of depression and anxiety disorders in adolescents aged 11 to 18. The presented case study research collates many of the underlying factors apparently contributing to poor mental health in young people. The findings suggest a strong correlation between social isolation and increased mental health issues, highlighting the need for effective intervention strategies, such as enhancing emotional regulation techniques.
Analyzing the "Chinese Elements" of Chinese Overseas from the Carnival of Cultures and Other Cultural Events
Authors: Zhang Ziqiong
Published: December 2024

With increased cultural diversity, cultural display activities in various countries are increasing. The issue of how overseas Chinese display Chinese elements in these events has received widespread attention, but the kinds of Chinese elements they display and the ways and means of displaying them still need to be improved. This paper analyzes the Chinese elements displayed by Chinese cultural parties in cultural events, the Chinese culture represented by these elements, the reasons why overseas Chinese participate in these events, and the problems they may encounter. This paper analyzes the fact that people participate in the events for reasons of the need for cultural exchange, cultural attachment, cultural identity, and sense of belonging. In recent years, Chinese people have displayed Chinese elements with more depth and culture. In the process of participating in cultural activities, the problems of significant cultural differences and lack of experience may occur. Based on this, this paper puts forward the following suggestions: before displaying Chinese elements, it is necessary to understand cultural differences and enhance one's cross-cultural communication skills; it is possible to set up or join a cultural society in the local area to strengthen the organization and planning; and at the same time, it is necessary to increase the interactive parts in the activities to enhance interest and participation.
Research on the Application of Artificial Intelligence in English Teaching in Higher Education
Authors: Chen Na
Published: December 2024

With the rapid development of science and technology, the domain of artificial intelligence (AI) witnesses a surge in growth. It is employed in English language teaching for non-native speakers both at home and abroad. This essay will examine the advantages and disadvantages of AI applications in English teaching, with a particular focus on higher education in China. A sampling survey is conducted to investigate the utilization of AI in English language teaching at the post-secondary level. The research involves administering a questionnaire to a sample of 50 college students to inquire about the integration of AI in the classroom. This paper reveals that the two most prevalent applications of AI in the classroom is assisted reading and spoken interaction. Nevertheless, the most evident challenge is the tendency of students to over-rely on AI. In addition, this paper points out the impacts of constructivism on English teaching by taking English writing as an example. These discussions provide some reference for future research on this topic. In light of the aforementioned conclusions, educators may gain insight into the potential applications of AI in the classroom aiming to optimise teaching efficiency.
Exploration of International Climate Governance Mechanisms from the Perspective of Social Dialogue
Authors: Zhang Sizhu
Published: December 2024

The global climate issue has become increasingly severe, and relying solely on a single entity for governance is insufficient to achieve ideal outcomes. Various international organizations are on the rise, and diversification and decentralization have become inevitable results in the evolution of international climate governance mechanisms. Social dialogue, as a mechanism involving multiple stakeholders, information sharing, and collaborative decision-making, can effectively address the collective action dilemma in climate governance. Therefore, this paper explores and analyzes the evolution of international climate mechanisms and the impact of diversified governance models through the lens of social dialogue. From this perspective, multiple stakeholders enhance democratic participation in international climate governance, which, to some extent, increases governance motivation. However, it also inevitably leads to a fragmented and decentralized global climate governance mechanism, characterized by a lack of international leadership and low governance efficiency. To address this issue and advance the climate governance process, it is necessary to acknowledge that a diversified governance mechanism has become a established fact, and subsequently, to establish a collaborative mechanism among multiple stakeholders, facilitating multi-faceted and multi-level dialogues to promote active and orderly participation from all parties, rather than pursuing a singular centralized leadership governance mechanism.
