Online but Not Alone: Teachers’ Perceptions of Effective Online School Leadership (OSL)
Authors: Sivia Awneet , Robertson Joanne
Published: September 2022

Online school leadership (OSL) is of particular interest given the growing number of online education opportunities. As school districts develop more online and blended learning programs, particularly for secondary grade students, the need to examine leadership in these programs is paramount. The literature suggests that most studies focus on effective leadership in bricks and mortar schools, while limited research focuses on leadership in online programs. In this study, we aimed to explore teachers’ perceptions of leadership in online secondary schools in two districts. Our questions focused on secondary teachers’ experiences with leaders in their online schools and how these experiences contribute to perceptions of what makes for effective leadership practices. Using phenomenology, we interviewed six teachers, analyzed for themes and categorized these into a sense of community, organizational learning and empowerment to represent teachers' perceptions of OSL. Based on these results, we suggest that OSL consists of both foundational and contextualized practices, and that both are necessary for effective OSL. This research has implications for educational leadership broadly, but specifically for leadership in online education.

Authors: De Castro Jeimis Nogueira , Vargas Eliane Portes
Published: September 2022

Ao elegermos o cinema como objeto de reflexão para o ensino de ciências a fim de promover práticas pedagógicas problematizadoras tivemos como objetivo discutir a contribuição do uso do cinema como uma estratégia que possibilite despertar o olhar de empatia em relação ao outro. A partir de pesquisas realizadas sobre corpo e gênero envolvendo a escola, analisamos cenas do filme Tomboy (2011) focalizando as interações do tipo face a face do personagem principal com seus pares e na escola. Para tal, levamos em conta diferentes formulações teóricas de autores e autoras que tematizam as interações sociais, corpo, identidade e relações de gênero em diferentes perspectivas. Esperamos com essa discussão colaborar para ampliação do uso do cinema no ensino de ciências, permitindo mais discussões e sensibilizações de temas ligados ao corpo e ao gênero em uma perspectiva transdisciplinar, emancipatória, crítica e transformadora.

Published: September 2022

Background: Music, rhythm, symmetry, and body awareness are important aspects of dancing training. Flamenco dancers not only mark and accentuate the rhythm, but they produce the rhythm through the footwork (zapateado). The main purpose of this study was to determine whether the rhythm tapped by the flamenco dancer’s feet occurs with the symmetry in the lower limb movements. Methods: The zapateado (ZAP-3) technique sequence based on 30 cycles composed of six repeating sequences of taps performed with right and left feet was analyzed. Movement kinematics was recorded using a 3D motion system. The following parameters were analyzed: time of subsequent ZAP-3 cycles, time of successive taps of the feet in the cycle, joint angular changes throughout the cycle, and lower limb joint angles at the time when the tap was performed. Results: Temporal parameters within the cycles of the ZAP-3 test revealed small variability (coefficient of variation up to 5.05% for the right and left lower limbs for a single cycle) and high symmetry (symmetry index did not exceed 3% for a single cycle), which indicates the rhythmicity of the flamenco test. Furthermore,the kinematic analysis revealed a lack of perfect symmetry in the movements performed by both lower limbs. This allows a flamenco dancer to have room for individual interpretation or improvisation so important in flamenco. It seems that rhythm plays a more important role in flamenco footwork than movement symmetry. Conclusion: Rhythm plays a more important role in flamenco footwork than movement symmetry.

Authors: Prasad P. Anil , Kumar M Naveen
Published: September 2022

Learning is the core competency required by the human beings, all living things, and even half-organisms like viruses, to survive in this world. Learning continues throughout one's life. When learning stops, it is almost the end of life. This fact remains explicit for anyone who observes life closely. Review of literature on progresses, innovations and overall successes of individuals, societies and organizations reveals that such achievements are greatly facilitated by the effective and efficient management of the lifelong learning process. Management of lifelong learning involves facilitation of all the life-cycle events of learning specific to various contexts in life like childcare, formal education and preparation for employment, employment, entrepreneurship, and active aging. That is why almost all international organizations, like UN, WHO, World Bank, Asian Development Bank, Commonwealth of Learning (COL), universities across the world, organizations that promote entrepreneurship, government establishments, industries, skill development programmes etc promote strategies, initiatives, and platforms to nurture lifelong learning. // Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4 of UN sets the goal ‘Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all’. Moto of WHO Academy is ‘Transforming lifelong learning for health impact’. World Bank has a lot of reports published on the importance of lifelong learning. // In the above context, further research was conducted into the management systems and processes that facilitate efficient lifelong learning experience to help the world to develop models that can be easily adopted. It will equip the mankind with capabilities for tackling the present and future challenges of life; especially as the world anticipates tremendous escalation of foreseen and unforeseen challenges due to the cumulative effect of climate change and socio-economic factors. The graduation of learning from the individual level to organization level and broader societal level also studied. The study has been conducted based on the literature available on the internet and the learning from hundreds of capacity building sessions facilitated by the authors over a long period of time. // The study identified learning management strategies that facilitate identification of the right learning path by individuals and preparedness of individuals, organizations and societies to remain proactive and agile are vital factors in promoting lifelong learning for sustainable development.

Authors: Yaro Loveline Yaro
Published: September 2022

During the past few years, there has been a noticeable and heightened concern on the plight of students living in the restive North-west and South-west regions of Cameroon that have been hit hard by the ongoing Anglophone crisis. The education crisis which was already a feature in many regions in the world has been exacerbated by Anglophone Crisis. The English-speaking Regions of Cameroon consisting of the Northwest and Southwest formal British Colonies have been restive since 2016. This is caused by a sociopolitical Crisis which has deteriorated overtime and led to violent clashes between armed forces and separate fighters, loss of life and property, internal displacements of inhabitants, human right abuse, climate of fear and uncertainty. Reports holds that, since the beginning of the crisis over 790, 000 people have been forcibly displaced and over 4,000 tortured and killed The crisis has specifically affected the Distance Education Program of the University of Buea whose student population consist of about ¾ of students living in these restive regions. These students have reported challenges in carrying out their academic work especially during periods of lockdown. Despite the complaints, the Program continues to run with classes going on and examination conducted even in the heart of the crisis. Notwithstanding the exposure to significant threats or severe adversity they face due to the socio-political crisis, the students remain resilient. Research has identified self-efficiency, work ethics, and internal locus of control as factors that can build resilience for academic excellence in at risk students facing such challenges. Using the convenient sampling procedure, the study adopted the survey questionnaire method aimed at highlighting supportive social actions that can contribute in building resilience for academic excellence in at-risk students studying in the Distance education program in the University of Buea. These activities will be geared towards using problem solving models of Social connections, Supportive relationships and Social agency to produce desired academic outcomes for at risk students from the restive anglophone regions enrolled in the Distance education program.
Regulation of Teaching and Learning on Bachelor of Laws (LL.B) Programme in National Open University of Nigeria: A Call for a Paradigm Shift
Authors: Ugbejeh Ernest Ogwashi
Published: September 2022

The teaching and learning on Bachelor of Laws (LL.B) is one of the most regulated professions globally. This is due to the specialty of the programme and the relevance of law to all spheres of life and the society. Hence, the upsurge demand of LL.B degree programme globally will subsists. In the UK, the total law student enrolments in 2011 grew from 70,500, to 122,755 by 2019/2020 and in 2020/2021 to 138,080. The LL.B enrolments increased from 89165 in 2019/2020 to 99780 in 2020/2021 sessions. The National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) had increased admission of LL.B students from 2007 to 2015 and the total number of admitted law students in NOUN is 28921. A total of 197,015 LL.B degree holders had been called to the Nigerian Bar as at 2021. Yet many qualified citizens are deprived access to the study of LL.B programme in Nigeria due to low admission capacity that is based on quota in Nigeria and rigidity of conventional universities. // The emergence of Open and Distance Learning (ODL) as a viable alternative mode of delivery of LL.B has not received the needed support of the regulatory bodies in Nigeria. The main argument against ODL is that some components of LL.B programme are procedural and the skills practical, which are best learnt through face-to-face teaching and in residential university. This paper using doctrinal and case study methods identifies the concerns of the regulatory bodies, regarding teaching and learning on LL.B through ODL in the NOUN to include the admission process, the delivery mode and the number of intake. It also found that although 12 ODL centres have been approved by NUC, none is currently running LL.B programme. // The paper conclude that the position of CLE contradicts the apparent reality driven by information and communication technology (ICT) revolution that spares no sector or profession. The conventional universities, the courts and other levels of education are fast adjusting to this reality of information technology driven world as exacerbated by the emergence of Covid 19. On the basis of the findings and leveraging on the NOUN”s experience with the regulators, the paper proffers far reaching solutions. The paper therefore suggests an accreditation that emphases quality than tradition and perception and also recommends the introduction of ICT and artificial intelligence (AI) into the curriculum of teaching and learning on legal education and LL.B in Nigeria.

Is the Erector Spinae Plane block useful for anti-nociception and analgesia in lumbar spine surgery? A narrative review of the literature and opinion paper
Authors: Tran G , Vyncke N , Montupil J , Bonhomme V , Defresne A
Published: September 2022

We aimed at determining whether the Erector Spinae Plane (ESP) block is useful for providing anti-nociception and analgesia to patients beneficiating from lumbar spine surgery. Using the keywords “Erector Spinae Plane block” and “lumbar” or “spinal surgery” in Pubmed, the Cochrane Library Database, and Google Scholar (end of search in March 2021), we identified 19 relevant papers involving 534 patients. Injection levels, and type, dilution, or volume of local anesthetic agent solution differed between studies. The main studied outcomes were postoperative pain control, and opioid consumption. Only one study compared the ESP block with another loco- regional technique. All published papers conclude that ESP block reduces postoperative pain scores and rescue medication use. As a corollary, ESP block appears promising in this indication for several reasons. First, it is easy to perform and does not have the same adverse effects or complications as neuraxial techniques. Second, even if the best site of injection as not been determined yet, skin puncture can be performed at distance from the surgical site, hence reducing the risk of surgical site infection by the loco-regional technique, and allowing its use as a rescue analgesic technique after surgery. Last, the incidence of ESP block complications seems low even if the number of studied patients is not wide enough to ascertain this fact for sure. Several unresolved questions are still pending. None of the published studies were randomized controlled trials with a group receiving a sham block, length of follow-up was limited to 48 hours, chronic pain was an exclusion criteria, and the pain scores were evaluated at rest. We conclude that the ESP block appears to be a safe and promising technique to be used as part of a multimodal analgesia protocol in lumbar spine surgery. Several studies are needed to precise its superiority and safety as compared to other techniques, its intraoperative opioid sparing effect, and its influence on longer term outcomes such as the development of chronic pain.

YIELD CURVE MODELLING AND FORECASTING IN AN UNDEVELOPED FINANCIAL MARKET: THE CASE OF BULGARIA
Authors:   Sofia University St. Kliment Ohridski, Makarieva Martina
Published: September 2022

An attempt is made to apply the popular Nelson-Siegel-Svensson parametric yield curve model in the case of an illiquid and undeveloped financial market. The findings suggest that the financial market’s illiquidity does not seem to diminish or distort the ability of the yield curve model to be used as a tool for deriving a clear picture of the shape and the dynamic of the yield curve. The in-sample and out-of-sample performance of the model for fitting the yield curve is further explored and illustrates how the modelling approach can provide a consistent framework for projecting the yield curve conditional macroeconomic scenarios that could be widely used for policy simulations.

Authors:   Higher School of Insurance and Finance, Mihailova Mihaela
Published: September 2022

The pandemic, which began in 2020, has affected all areas of human activity. Education was also one of them, and its rapid adaptation to the new reality was a condition for guaranteeing the level of its quality. In order to comply with the recommendations for action during a pandemic, the educational process was moved entirely online. This process took place literally over the span of a single day, wherein the physical classrooms became virtual, and the teachers and students were faced with the challenge of changing their previous approaches in order to respond and deal with the situation. In this regard, for the purposes of the present paper, the understanding of online learning in higher education is reduced to the level of a marketing product, as a part of the marketing mix. The different levels of the product in the context of online learning are examined, as well as the factors that lead to the success of the products. The advantages, disadvantages and opportunities for improving online learning in higher education are studied based on own empirical research conducted among 230 students at different universities.
INDIVIDUAL DECISIONS AND COLLECTIVE CHOICES IN THE HISTORY OF ECONOMIC THOUGHT
Authors:   University of Rome Sapienza, Morselli Alessandro
Published: September 2022

This paper highlights the difficulties encountered in building individual decisions. In addition, possible incompatibilities can be found between individual choices and collective choices. Therefore, focus will be placed on how to transfer an analysis of rational individual choice in the context of collective choices. Voting is usually the most used expression of individual wills to arrive at the formulation of a collective decision. The model used highlights the paradox of electoral participation and hence the benefit of ‘no vote’. Along the path, the difficulties encountered when one tries to transform individual preferences into collective choices through certain procedures will be examined. Therefore, other pathways should be identified in order to describe a number of decision-making procedures in the most appropriate possible way.

The emphasis is placed on basic leadership theories, leadership styles and the role of the global leader as a prerequisite for success in international business. The main leadership style of management as a manifestation of the cultural factor in the USA, Mexico, Brazil, Sweden, Germany, Japan, South Korea and South Africa is considered. The practical dimensions of leadership are illustrated through a comparative analysis between the international car companies „Toyota“ and „Audi“. The essence and importance of successful leadership in non-governmental organizations as a factor for their survival is specified.

In an effort to fill the existing gap regarding the definition of the competitiveness of agricultural holdings and the ways to measure it, the present research applies a holistic approach in the assessment of the competitiveness of agricultural holdings in Bulgaria as a whole, as well as in terms of their different specialization. Despite its importance and the continuing debates on the topic, there is still no consensus on what the competitiveness of farms is; how to measure the competitiveness of different organizations in agriculture; what the absolute and comparative competitiveness of different types of farms is; which are the critical factors for increasing the competitiveness at the current stage of development, etc. The multi-criteria assessment found that although the level of competitiveness of Bulgarian farms is overall good, more than a third of all farms in the country show a low level of competitiveness. This can largely be attributed to their low adaptive potential and economic efficiency. The most competitive farms are those specializing in the beekeeping sector, followed by field crops, mixed livestock and mixed crop production, while farms specializing in grazing livestock are the least competitive. The proposed approach should be improved and applied more widely and periodically, increasing its accuracy and representativeness. The latter requires close cooperation with producer organizations, the National Agricultural Advisory Service (NAAS) and other stakeholders, as well as improvements to the agricultural information collection system in the country.
Foundations of contemporary economics: Mancur Olson and collective action

Mancur Olson (1932-1998) became famous with one great idea: the failure of collective action. Since interest groups provide their members with public (collective) goods with corresponding externalities, he assumed that free riding as a rational individual strategy would be a ubiquitous problem hampering the realization of efficient collective action in the provision of such goods. This remarkable idea – the application of methodological individualism and the assumption of rational individual behavior in the analysis of interest groups, provided a fertile ground for theory building in all social sciences, most notably in political science. In the field of economics, Olson’s ideas contributed to the establishment of the Public Choice Theory and became a prerequisite for fundamental research in experimental economics – on public goods, voluntary contribution mechanisms and games such as the prisoner dilemma. The present paper briefly discusses his two best-known books.

As a first tranche measure to fight the economic disruption of the lock-down and part of the strategy to revive India’s battered economy, a liquidity infusion for the power distribution companies was announced under the Atmanirbhar Bharat (self-reliant India) scheme. The present study aims to discuss the overdue, outstanding, and disputed amounts of the sixty-one power discoms from April 2020 to September 2020. The author pointed out that the amounts due by thediscoms to generator companies have risen to Rs. 94,000 crores while the Indian government will provide only a total liquidity infusion of Rs. 90,000 crores for the needy electricity distribution companies. The payments owed by electricity utilities have risen to Rs. 1.24 lakh crore, which is more than 20 percent higher than for the same period last year. Subsequently, the debts of the discoms to generating companies are growing, making discoms unsustainable as unpaid power producers threaten to stop electricity supply to states.
LA THEORIE ECONOMIQUE FACE À LA COVID-19 : DE ADAM SMITH À JOHN MAYNARD KEYNES

Bien qu’annoncée et/ou attendue par certains experts du domaine, la Covid est apparue en Novembre 2019 en Chine et a été déclarée comme „pandémie“ en Mars 2020 par l’Organisation Mondiale de la Santé. Elle a surpris le monde entier par son ampleur, sa vitesse de propagation, son insolence, son apatridie, son irrespect des niveaux de développement des pays, et par-dessus tout sa cruauté. Elle a plongé le monde dans un état de léthargie et d’hibernation rarement observé dans la période contemporaine, et a obligé la vie à se retirer de ses espaces habituels de déploiement. Dans un contexte d’épouvante aussi désarticulé, et si l’on convient avec Robbins (1932, p. 15) que “Economics is the science which studies human behaviour as a relationship between ends and scarce means which have alternative uses”, il peut être utile de s’interroger sur la force des lois, des règles et autres théorèmes énoncés par une telle science face à une pandémie dont l’indice de gravité n’a d’égal que celui de la grippe espagnole de 1918-1921. Pour ce faire, nous utilisons une méthodologie analytique en ce sens qu’en reprenant brièvement les idées des six premiers des douze penseurs séminaux identifiés par Yueh (2019) (Adam Smith, David Ricardo, Karl Marx, Alfred Marshall, Irving Fisher, John Maynard Keynes), nous tentons de discuter de la résistance de leurs idées (ou de la permanence de la pertinence de leurs résultats) à l’aune de la pandémie. Le résultat indique que toutes les idées ne sont pas immuables.
The digitalization of labor force and the future of work
Authors:   University of National and World Economy, Prodanov Hristo
Published: September 2022

The article examines the changes in labor resulting from the digitalization of the workplace with the advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The appearance of new forms of work, the replacement of labor by machines and changes in the qualities and training of the workforce are highlighted. The overcoming of the social contradictions that accompany these changes is associated with the implementation of new instruments such as a global profit tax on large corporations and robotic systems, the elimination of offshore zones, new forms of regulation of new forms of work, unconditional basic income, reduction of working hours, changes in education systems, new forms of control over labor migration, etc. The conclusion is made that the changes occurring in labor lead to new processes and phenomena in the economy, which are an important challenge for economic sciences and especially for political economy to make observations and identify new trends and dependencies. At the same time, the new processes and phenomena require the creation and implementation of new tools for overcoming the negative consequences and adversе impacts on man and society.
