Authors: Tanrıkulu Murat
Published: June 2024

Renk, en eski çağlardan günümüze, renkli görme yeteneğiyle yaratılan her insan için vazgeçilmez bir fenomen olmuştur. Zira her varlığın kendine özgü bir rengi vardır ve bu onun en ayırt edici özellikleri arasındadır. Renk; bireyden basit kalabalıklara, monarşilerden modern devletlere kadar her türden organizasyonun kültürel yapılarında, sergilenen farklılıklara rağmen yerini almıştır. Bütün bu açıklamalar ışığında dile getirilen yapıların başlı başına bir renk kültürü oluşturduğu da muhakkaktır. Özellikle ulus devletler için renklerin farklı anlamlar taşıdıkları; tuğ, sancak ve bayrak gibi üstün değerlerle taçlandırıldıkları yaşanılan ve geçmişten günümüze gözlemlenen bir durumdur. Ancak bazı renkler vardır ki o renkler bütünüyle bir ulusla özdeşleşmiş ve tüm dünyada o ulusun adıyla anılır, bilinir olmuştur. Bu çalışmanın konu ve amacı da Türk adıyla anılan Türk kırmızısı ve turkuaz rengi coğrafyacı yaklaşımıyla ele almaktır. Zira dünyanın herhangi bir yerinde; mimaride, sanatta, giyim kuşamda bu renklerin varlığı, oraya Türk elinin değdiği anlamına gelmektedir. Çalışmanın yöntemini konuyu ilgilendiren her türden yazılı ya da görsel belgenin incelenmesine odaklı olan doküman analizi oluşturmaktadır. Bulguların yorumlanma safhasında ise hermeneutikten yararlanılmıştır.

Authors: Жукевич Ірина , Спірічева Ольга
Published: June 2024

У цій статті досліджується трансформація вивчення іноземних мов, а саме вплив інструментів штучного інтелекту (далі – ШІ) на розвиток мовленнєвих навичок студентів вищих навчальних закладів. Акцентується увага на потенційних перевагах та недоліках використання ШІ у вивченні мови, а також на рекомендаціях щодо ефективного впровадження інструментів ШІ у навчальний процес. Дослідження також показало, що існує широкий спектр інструментів ШІ, які можна використовувати для розвитку мовленнєвих навичок студентів, наведено приклади деяких найпоширеніших з них. Зазначено, що застосування інструментів штучного інтелекту у викладанні та вивченні іноземних мов може суттєво покращити процес оволодіння мовленнєвими навичками, роблячи його більш персоналізованим, інтерактивним та ефективним. У статті використовується комплексний метод дослідження, що включає аналіз наукової літератури, узагальнення досвіду використання інструментів ШІ у вивченні іноземних мов. Дослідження показало, що використання інструментів штучного інтелекту може мати як позитивний, так і негативний вплив на розвиток мовленнєвих навичок студентів. З одного боку, інструменти штучного інтелекту можуть допомогти студентам практикувати іноземну мову, отримувати зворотний зв'язок і покращувати свої мовленнєві навички, а з іншого боку, такі самі інструменти штучного інтелекту можуть призвести до розвитку мовних помилок, стереотипів та упереджень. Наголошено, що викладачі повинні усвідомлювати обмеження та потенційні упередження інструментів ШІ та вживати заходів для їх пом'якшення. Вони також повинні захищати конфіденційність своїх студентів і навчати їх критично мислити отримуючи інформацію від інструментів штучного інтелекту. При правильному використанні інструменти ШІ можуть бути цінним ресурсом для розвитку мовленнєвих навичок студентів, вони можуть допомогти студентам практикувати вимову, отримувати зворотний зв'язок і покращувати навички аудіювання. На основі проаналізованої наукової та науково-методичної літератури, автори підкреслюють важливість використання інструментів штучного інтелекту відповідально та етично, а також поєднувати їх з іншими методами навчання. Варто дотримуватися запропонованих рекомендацій та шляхів впровадження використання інструментів штучного інтелекту для розвитку мовленнєвих навичок студентів при вивченні іноземної мови. Зазначено причини, через які дослідження впливу інструментів штучного інтелекту на розвиток мовленнєвих навичок студентів є пріоритетними для майбутніх досліджень.
Державний механізм суб’єкта федерації у теорії держави і права
Authors: Каніщев Григорій Юрійович
Published: June 2024

У статті аналізуються зміни, що відбуваються в управлінському механізмі федеративної держави у зв’язку зі становленням і подальшим розвитком інформаційного суспільства. Подано визначення інформаційного суспільства як системи людських відносин в умовах стрімкого розвитку інформаційно-комп’ютерних технологій. Зазначається, що становлення та подальший розвиток інформаційного суспільства зумовлює проблему пристосування (адаптації) до нього всіх сторін життєдіяльності суспільства. Зокрема, його політичної системи. І перш за все, його головного елементу – держави. Пояснюється, що в умовах подальшої еволюції держави (зокрема, під впливом процесів глобалізації і глокалізації) великі перспективи має федеративна форма державного устрою. Її подальша еволюція в умовах інформаційного суспільства тісно пов'язана з мережевим управлінням. Тобто системою горизонтальних зв’язків між окремими елементами держави, а також держави з двома іншими елементами політичної системи суспільства – громадянським суспільством і місцевим самоврядуванням. Зазначається, що стосовно федеративної держави мережеве управління має велике значення для налагодження ефективних управлінських зв’язків як між федерацією і її суб’єктами (вертикальні зв’язки), так і між самими суб’єктами федерації (горизонтальні зв’язки). Проблема мережевого управління як запоруки успішного функціонування політичної системи пов'язана з поняттям «механізм держави». При цьому механізм держави фактично ототожнюється з мережевим управлінням. Механізм держави, у свою чергу, розглядається як система, що складається з наступних трьох елементів: а) державного апарату (бюрократії); б) участі громадян в управлінні державними справами; в) комунікації (насамперед електронної) громадян і держави. Таке трактування поняття «механізм держави» та ототожнення його з мережевим управлінням пов’язане зі змінами, які вносить інформаційне суспільство у функціонування держави як політичного інституту. На прикладі різних федеративних держав світу аналізуються явища, які безпосередньо впливають на ефективність державного механізму суб’єкта федерації. А саме: питання щодо суверенітету суб’єкта федерації, розподілу повноважень федеральної влади і влади суб’єктів федерації, управлінських установ суб’єкта федерації, симетрії і асиметрії у побудові федеративної держави (різного політико – правового статусу суб’єктів федерації). Звертається також увага на можливість наявності у складі федеративної держави федеральних територій як елементів, що впливають на державний механізм суб’єкта федерації. Звертається увага на важливість державного механізму в умовах полідержави: федеративної держави, що включає території (регіони) з різним політико-правовим статусом. Зазначається, що проведення подальших досліджень у цьому напрямку є актуальним і необхідним науковим пошуком.

masculinidade(s) torcedoras
Authors: Iribure Rodrigues André , Bertoncello Soraya
Published: June 2024

O futebol permite observar como os indivíduos envolvidos no jogo – atletas, torcida, etc. – se sentem, enxergam e percebem o mundo ao seu redor. O presente artigo tem como objetivo identificar os imaginários de masculinidades expressos nos cantos da torcida do Grêmio, clube de futebol de Porto Alegre. Para tanto, foi feita uma observação in loco dos cantos e, a partir da Análise Discursiva de Imaginários e do levantamento teórico sobre gênero e masculinidades, foi possível confirmar que as músicas entoadas pelos gremistas privilegiam uma masculinidade hegemônica e heteronormativa, que deprecia o rival usando termos homofóbicos, valoriza o consumo de álcool, o regionalismo e o pertencimento ao clube.

Trata-se de resenha avaliativa do documentário "O fabuloso Fittipaldi", dirigido em 1973 pelos cineastas Roberto Farias e Hector Babenco. Volve-se a um filme realizado há mais de meio século e sua motivação para análise assenta no fato de que se está diante de uma das primeiras películas a dar tratamento cinematográfico a um piloto de corridas e a um dos maiores ídolos automobilísticos nacionais, o paulistano de classe média, Emerson Fittipaldi. Dirigido durante o período ditatorial do início dos anos 1970, quando o futebol tricampeão mundial hegemonizava as atenções da sociedade e do imaginário brasileiros, este registro audiovisual é analisado como um bem cultural significativo para a construção da persona do ídolo esportivo e para o entendimento da idolatria em torno dessa modalidade de esporte profissional no país, cujo apelo passional é regido pelo fascínio em torno da máquina-carro, de sua respectiva velocidade motorizada e mesmo do risco de morte na pista. O objetivo é acompanhar a narrativa fílmica, de modo a examinar o modo como a personagem central é enquadrada e construída. Para tanto, nosso argumento central é o de que o filme, a contrapelo de um formato tradicional de edificação da figura do ídolo, oferece em igual proporção elementos menos previsíveis e mais interessantes de desconstrução do protagonista idolatrado. Assim, no momento em que Fittipaldi logra a conquista de seu primeiro título mundial na Fórmula 1 (1972) e alcança o topo do prestígio internacional na categoria, os documentaristas representam sua trajetória imersa em indecisões familiares, em hesitações pessoais e prenhe de questões desconstrutoras do senso-comum acerca do gênio predestinado ou da ilusão biográfica que reconstitui o percurso prévio e consabido de um campeão.

Authors: Blamu Mitumba Hajira , Wellington Chirwa Grames
Published: June 2024

The purpose of this study was to establish the experiences of learners with mathematics learning difficulties in regular classrooms in Malawian secondary schools. The study embraced the qualitative approach and it was conducted in the Central West Educational Division in Lilongwe, at one secondary school with the learners’ population of 1,100. Forty learners were sampled at the school to be involved in the study. Data was analyzed using the thematic method. Out of the results of the study, it was concluded that students experienced lack of support from their teachers as most teachers had negative attitude towards them. Teachers’ use of poor Mathematics Instruction techniques caused the learners to have difficulties in the subject. Furthermore, lack of teaching and learning materials made the teaching and learning of Mathematics more theoretical than practical, which made the subject even more difficult for learners with Mathematics Learning Difficulties. The study recommends that the Ministry of Education needs to orient the general education teachers in mainstream schools on the effective teaching of learners with learning challenges such as those with Mathematics Learning Difficulties. Furthermore, there should be school based Continuous Professional Development programs for teachers of Mathematics to improve their classroom delivery of Mathematics lessons. The Ministry of Education should provide required teaching and learning materials in order to facilitate the teaching and learning of Mathematics.
Handling of Electronic Health Records in Tanzania: Awareness and Use of Available Regulations
Authors: Eugene Shiyo Neema
Published: June 2024

This paper sought to establish the awareness of the importance of patient privacy as well as the awareness of available policies guiding the handling of patients’ personal and health records. Using the case study design, the study collected data from doctors, nurses, ICT officers as well as patients from four hospitals selected purposively in Dar es Salaam and Dodoma regions of Tanzania. A total of 43 respondents participated in this study. Data was subjected to thematic analysis using the NVIVO 12 plus computer package. Results show that both providers and users of e – health services in Tanzania consider patient privacy to be an important issue and they relate it to morality, personal respect and dignity. Level of awareness of existing government institutions guiding the work of health service providers was found to be low. It is concluded that, the presence of regulatory institutions is not enough if these institutions are not known, valued, considered and used by members of organizations. There is a need for the e – health service providers and patients to familiarize themselves with available policies and regulations for the health providers and for the government to promote these regulatory institutions.

Published: June 2024

The study took place in the Sunyani municipality, the capital of the Bono region of Ghana. The purpose of the study was to investigate public and private junior high school pupils’ perceptions of classroom assessment and academic performance in integrated science. The study employed the descriptive survey research design involving 200 second-year pupils. A questionnaire was used to collect data on their perceptions of classroom assessment while the national BECE examination results for three consecutive years were used to determine pupils’ performance in the subject based on school type. Mean scores, standard deviations and t-test were used to analyze the data. The study concludes that pupils had a positive perception on transparency of assessment, application and their capabilities. However, the pupils had a neutral perception towards congruence with planned learning. Private JHS pupils performed higher than public JHS pupils. To address the pupils’ neutral perceptions of congruence with planned learning, it is recommended that the teachers from the sampled schools be open to the pupils and inform them of the mode of assessment to be taken. Since the private JHS pupils performed better than the public JHS pupils, it is recommended that the district and municipal education directors and circuit supervisors keep close eyes on the work of the public integrated science teachers in the municipality to bridge the gap between the performance of public and private junior high school pupils in integrated science.

Published: June 2024

The study sought to establish the effects of the Free Education Policy on learner enrollment, school infrastructure, financing and the quality of teaching and learning in community primary and secondary public schools in Zambia. The study participants included the District Education Board Secretaries, head teachers, class teachers, learners and parents from 10 provinces, selected using probability and non-probability sampling techniques. Quantitative data was collected from teachers through a structured questionnaire. In addition, qualitative data was collected from the District Education Board Secretaries, learners and parents through in-depth interviews and Focus Group Discussion guides. Quantitative data was processed, cleaned and analyzed using the SPSS 23.0 to produce descriptive statistics. Qualitative data was transcribed, sorted and analyzed along with survey data to establish emergent trends. The study found that the implementation of the Free Education Policy had increased school enrollments and government funding. The increase in the number of learners in schools has put pressure on the already overstretched educational resources like teachers, desks, textbooks, toilets and laboratory facilities, indirectly affecting the quality of education. The study suggests that Zambia's Free Education Policy implementation can be strengthened by prioritizing desks, textbooks, sanitary facilities, teacher deployment, modern classroom construction, especially in rural areas, and enacting sustainable financing legislation. The study, within the lens of the Capability Approach, has practical implications on how the implementation of the Free Education Policy can be strengthened in Zambia.

This study sought to assess the level of competences acquired by Geography students through the Competence-based teaching and learning approach in the Rwandan Secondary Schools. It was conducted in six secondary schools, where geography is taught as a major subject. The study followed a quantitative approach with a cross sectional descriptive design. Data was collected using a test administered to 210 students of senior 5 and senior 6 on the content learned in senior 4 and 5 respectively. The findings highlight that students achieved the assessed competences at a high level. They performed well in human and economic geography than in physical geography. Students from boarding schools performed better than those in day schools in both sub-areas of geography and for both S5 and S6. Urban schools performed better than rural schools in physical geography for both S5 and S6 with exception in human and economic geography. The study recommends more support to all schools to achieve the expected performance in both physical and human and economic geography at an excellent level.
Effects of Climate Change Adaptation Strategies on Maize Productivity among Smallholder Farmers in Dodoma, Tanzania
Authors: Ngirwa Kamuzora Aurelia
Published: June 2024

This study sought to establish the impact of climate change adaptation strategies on maize productivity among smallholder farmers in Dodoma, Tanzania. Employing a cross-sectional research design, data was collected from 274 respondents who were randomly selected. A structured questionnaire was utilized for data collection, and the Propensity Score Matching (PSM) technique was employed to estimate the effects of climate adaptation strategies on maize productivity. The findings indicate that smallholder farmers who adopted climate change adaptation tactics achieved higher maize yields compared to non-adopters. Additionally, results from multiple linear regression demonstrate that increased maize yields are associated with the adoption of drought-resistant maize varieties, intercropping, minimal tillage, adjusted planting dates, fertilizers, irrigation and short-duration maize varieties. Notably, crop rotation showed no significant effect on maize productivity. Policy recommendations include government investment in promoting the adoption of climate change adaptation strategies among smallholder farmers to mitigate losses and improve the farmers’ well-being. Furthermore, investments in modern irrigation schemes and the use of drought-resilient seeds are deemed crucial for enhancing agricultural resilience in the face of climate change.
Ecumenical Challenge in the Third Millennium
Authors: Mwita Alexander
Published: June 2024

Ecumenical movement is a Christian attempt to unite the fragmented Christian denominations, which has not materialized. From this failure, this paper aimed at finding out the ecumenical challenge in the third millennium. This study followed a qualitative approach that employs content analysis of historical data. It described theological and hermeneutical themes in five sections. The first section gives a brief working definition of three theological terms, millennium, third millennium and filioque controversy. The second section focuses on the description of the ecumenical movement in the third millennium. The third section gives a hermeneutical understanding of biblical teaching on unity. The fourth section presents the contrast between the biblical teaching on unity and the concept of unity in the ecumenical movement in the third millennium. The last section presents the challenges that face the ecumenical movement in the third millennium. Base on the findings, the study concludes that the challenge that faces the ecumenical movement is disregarding the biblical concept of unity and neglecting doctrinal differences among Christian denominations. Therefore, the study recommends that unity should be sought in accordance with biblical truth; moreover, the quest for unity should focus on solving the doctrinal differences among Christian denominations.
