Salette Tavares: musicalidade e visualidade das palavras no espaço-tempo
Authors: Lambert Maria de Fátima , Monteiro Francisco
Published: December 2023

Na continuidade de estudos versando entre palavras, sons e imagens nos anos 1960 e 1970 e sobre experimentalismos no panorama musical português, propõe-se uma leitura de obras específicas de Salette Tavares em diálogo com outros ‘experimentadores artísticos’: Jorge Peixinho, Ana Hatherly ou Anna Maria Maiolino. Vai-se, pois, ao encontro do conceito formulado por José Ernesto de Sousa de ‘operadores estéticos’ (1969) e pensando as afinidades entre linguagens demonstrativas de solidez identitária. Salette Tavares participou no Concerto e Audição Pictórica (1965) ação determinante no panorama português. A articulação entre as imagens dos sons/escrita das palavras propagou atos que se repercutem nos públicos. As palavras são imagens que são sons que são atos coreográficos. E o reverso é permutável, pois a Arte é um jogo – Schiller e Gadamer dixit. No universo estético da poeta-visual-esteta identificam-se propostas notações/sons, sugerem-se composições verbivocovisuais, reflete-se acerca da configuração viso-sígnica destas escritas/sonoridades/movimentações reificadas, potencialmente música intuitiva, dinamismos mentais e admitindo a dimensão háptica que as perpassa. Olhar/ler/ouvir proporciona vivências de completude, convoca presenças e fruições. A obra de Salette Tavares propicia experiências estéticas de desocultamento, evidenciando sinais de plenitude, contribuindo para vivências estéticas educacionais, quiçá ‘desinteressadas’, parafraseando Kant.
Inclusive Media Mix
Authors: Kaminishi Yuta
Published: December 2023

A Silent Voice (Koe no katachi, dir. Yamada Naoko, 2016) is an anime film based on the critically acclaimed manga of the same name by Ôima Yoshitoki. A Silent Voice follows the experiences of a deaf character, Nishimiya Shôko, and her classmates, particularly as they deal with school bullying and rebuilding friendships afterwards. A Silent Voice not only won various awards such as Best Animated Feature Film at the Japanese Movie Critics Award, but also collaborated with actors across the public sector such as schools, local governments, and the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT), to enhance inclusive education in Japan. This article shifts the typical focus on media mix as a marketing strategy to consider media mix strategies as potential tools for civic and educational causes. Specifically, it explores A Silent Voice’s media mix in relation to improving inclusivity in Japanese education and society. To that end, this project begins with a brief elucidation of the three versions of the original manga, which serve as starting points of this inclusivity-focused media mix. The project then moves to analysis of how the anime problematizes school bullying as systemic exclusion and explores how sign language is presented as one key to forming an inclusive society. Finally, by introducing cases in which collaboration with the public sector distributes this anime’s characters, induces various audience desires, and mobilizes audiences to participate in social change, I argue that A Silent Voice provides an example of inclusive media mix.
Black Butler: A Neo-Victorian Jack the Ripper and the Child Detective
Authors: Bilkhu Joti
Published: December 2023

In Toboso Yana’s anime Black Butler, she pairs the figures of the child detective with Jack the Ripper to arrive at a complex array of meanings. The Ripper figure continues to have one of the most popular afterlives following its original context of Victorian Britain, with numerous contemporary iterations and adaptations of the 1888 murders visible across contemporary popular culture. This article examines the characteristics that Black Butler’s child detective Ciel Phantomhive has in common with the Ripper (tragic histories, violent behavior, and the strategic use of knowledge). I begin by contextualizing Black Butler in regards to Japanese literature, a world literature framework, and the neo-Victorian genre alike. I then turn to analyzing how Ciel deploys the knowledge he gains from the Ripper case to legitimize himself; he both unravels the mystery of this figure and allows it to persist. In essence, the Ripper phenomenon garners such interest precisely because it is a mystery, and Ciel capitalizes on the same uncertainties and (lack of) knowledge as a form of power.
Understanding the Backer Motivations for Japanese Anime Crowdfunding Campaigns
Authors: Morikawa Miyuki , Mizoguchi Masahito , Moriya Meimi
Published: December 2023

In the Japanese animation industry, TV stations and film companies generally take the lead in setting up joint ventures called production committees to raise funds. Although there are cases where an animation studio takes the lead in starting a project, it is often difficult for the studio to form a production committee depending on the content of the project and the career of the director. In recent years, crowdfunding has attracted attention as a way of raising funds for production from general consumers. While some projects can raise more than their goals through crowdfunding, many others do not. This study, therefore, attempts to identify what anime crowdfunding backers value in pledging their support. A total of 6,596 comments from backers of three Japanese anime projects funded on the U.S. crowdfunding website Kickstarter were analyzed using a text-mining method. The results showed that most crowdfunding backers placed importance on the rewards and that crowdfunding success is likely to be related to past achievements of the work and its creators, as well as the credibility of the studio. Compared to overseas backers, Japanese backers were found to express their support for the creators more than for the rewards.
Implementation of Competency-Based Education for Quality Midwifery Programs in Africa: Protocol for a Scoping Review
Authors: Ige Waleola Bukola , Ngcobo Winnie Baphumelele , Afolabi Opeyemi
Published: December 2023

Background

Competency-based education (CBE) for midwifery programs is a system of academic instruction and evaluation that aims to achieve proficiency in midwifery student learning outcomes, which is based on students’ ability to demonstrate the knowledge, attitudes, self-perceptions, and skills of a predetermined set of educational activities in theory and practice. CBE focuses on ensuring that midwifery students can develop critical thinking abilities, values, and the clinical decision-making abilities needed for the delivery of safe care in future practice.

Objective

The objective of this scoping review is to map and synthesize existing literature on the implementation of CBE for midwifery programs and its sustainability in Africa.

Methods

We will use the Arksey and O’Malley approach for scoping reviews for the research methodology. The 3-stage search process, proposed by the Joanna Briggs Institute, will be used to determine the eligibility of published and unpublished studies. PubMed, Science Direct, Web of Science, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and Scopus will be searched to screen published articles. ProQuest Dissertations and Theses and Google Scholar will be used to search for unpublished studies. Findings will only apply to studies conducted in Africa from 2010 to the present year in English. The 2 reviewers will work independently to carefully screen and compare the full text of the selected citations to the inclusion criteria. In the event of any disagreements between the 2 reviewers at any stage of the selection process regarding the inclusion of an article, this will be settled by discussion or consultation with a third reviewer. The extracted data will be presented using a PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Review) flow diagram with an attached narrative summary. The review will summarize and disseminate findings on the implementation of the CBE for midwifery programs and its sustainability in Africa.

Results

It is intended that this scoping review will be completed within 6 months following the publication of this protocol.

Conclusions

The conclusions from this scoping review will inform midwifery educators, institutions, policy makers, and other stakeholders on the strategies to implement and sustain CBE for midwifery programs in Africa.

Published: December 2023

Background

Adolescents living with type 1 diabetes (T1D) often experience diabetes distress (DD), a construct distinct from depression or anxiety that refers to the negative emotions that arise from living with and managing diabetes. Self-compassion, which involves being open to one’s own suffering and treating oneself with the same care one would show to loved ones, is associated with better psychological and clinical outcomes among individuals with T1D. Self-compassion is a skill that can be taught and therefore represents an opportunity for intervention.

Objective

The overall aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of a web-based mindful self-compassion for teens (MSC-T) intervention on improving DD, anxiety, depression, diabetes-related disordered eating, and suicidal ideation experienced by youth with T1D (aged between 12 and 17 years) compared with a waitlist control group (standard of care). We will also explore (1) if the effect of the MSC-T intervention changes over time, (2) if the MSC-T intervention has a positive impact on measures of glycemic control, and (3) if the effect of the MSC-T intervention differs based on self-reported gender.

Methods

We will conduct a single-center, parallel-group randomized controlled trial of 140 adolescents with T1D followed for 12 months. Participants will be randomly allocated (using hidden allocation) in a 1:1 ratio to either the MSC-T intervention or the waitlist control group. Our primary outcome is DD, as measured by the Problem Areas in Diabetes-Teen (PAID-T) version at 3 months. Secondary outcomes, assessed at 3 and 12 months, include anxiety (Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item [GAD-7] scale), depression (Patient Health Questionnaire-9 [PHQ-9]), diabetes-related disordered eating (Diabetes Eating Problem Survey-Revised [DEPS-R] version), and suicidal ideation (using 1 question from the PHQ-9).

Results

Study recruitment began in October 2022 and was completed in March 2023, with a total of 141 participants enrolling. Data collection will be ongoing until March 2024. The first results are expected in June 2024.

Conclusions

This study will be the first randomized trial to assess the effectiveness of the web-based MSC-T intervention on adolescents with T1D. Given that adolescence is a period where individuals are typically required to assume more responsibility for their diabetes care, providing adolescents with the tools they need to better manage the stress that often accompanies T1D management is paramount.

AN APPRAISAL OF OAU AS A TOOTHLESS BULLDOG AND ITS TRANSFORMATION TO AFRICAN UNION, 1963-2002
Authors: MICHAEL EDIAGBONYA
Published: December 2023

This paper examines the Organization of African Unity (OAU) as a toothless bulldog. The genesis, charter, and achievements of the Organization also came to focus. It assesses the transformation of OAU to African Union in 2002. The data were obtained from primary and secondary sources. Oral interview constituted the primary sources while books, newspapers, journals, theses, and desertion serves as secondary sources. It was found that OAU which was established in 1963, transformed into African Union in 2002. It was also found that the non-interference of OAU in the internal affairs of member states was a serious challenge. It was demonstrated that the OAU was clearly a toothless bulldog and a talking club of African leaders. In conclusion, it was noted that the transformation of OAU to AU was a step in the right direction because of the monumental failure of OAU to deliver on its mandate.

Published: December 2023

Seismic isolation strategies have been extensively implemented to mitigate the risk of damage in cable-stayed bridges (CSBs). The effectiveness of seismic isolation has received a great deal of attention from a number of researchers. This paper focuses on studying the seismic performance of a single pylon cable-stayed bridge with a single concave friction pendulum (SCFP) at various locations under bi-directional seismic excitations. A 3D numerical model was created using the prototype of a single pylon cable-stayed bridge located in Antalya, Turkey in order to study its seismic response. SCFP was installed at the bridge’s deck-abutment, deck-pylon and pylon-foundation connection to study the reduction of the dy-namic response when subjected to various seismic excitations. The efficiency of SCFP is evaluated by monitoring and controlling the displacement of the deck, acceleration, and the base of the pylon. The an-alytical results indicate that SCFP can eﬀectively diminish both the base shear and the displacement of the pylon. However, the effectiveness of SCFP is significantly influenced by its location and ground mo-tion.

Este libro surge de la preocupación por los procesos políticos actuales de América Latina. El punto de partida es la constatación de que tales procesos no se entienden sin el entramado de fuerzas que gravitan en el hemisferio, entre cuyas expresiones adquieren centralidad las políticas estadounidenses, especialmente las dirigidas hacia el sistema interamericano. Las preguntas formuladas buscan explorar el lugar estratégico que juega nuestra región en la consideración de sus tendencias más globales, so reserva de las particularidades específicas, así como en los ajustes sistémicos derivados de la crisis y la disponibilidad contra-hegemónica en la agenda regional. Aquí es donde se puede instalar un locus analítico, desde el cual la hegemonía aparece bajo el ropaje de conflictos diversos que registran la compleja disputa por la interpretación y dirección de los procesos políticos.

Published: December 2023

Abstract: In recent years massive traffic volume increase has demanded the implementation of traffic improvement plans in Pakistan. The urban Highway transportation networks are becoming congested in developed as well as in most of the developing countries. The main causes of unmanageable heterogeneous traffic congestion on the highway are an increase in population, change in lifestyle, and economic development of a country. To recognize the characteristics of a driver who frequently changes lanes and analyze the techniques of frequent lane-changing behavior. The researchers collected data via a questionnaire survey and analyzed the influence of traffic environment and driver characteristics violation on frequent lane-changing behavior on travel speed in detail by manually Excel statistics. Results showed that the impact of a heterogeneous traffic environment of two lanes and three lanes cars, and traffic flow density was sharply associated with frequent lane-changing behavior. The drivers were the main factors affecting frequent lane-changing behavior in heterogeneous traffic conditions, which was most popular during aggressive driving. Only 8.33% of drivers were never involved in this behavior. Most liable to frequent lane-changing behavior were males as compared to females, 31–40-year-old drivers, and those with low academic qualifications and private vehicle personalities. Among various traffic factors, changes in required speed had the most significant impact on how often lane changes occurred. The findings of the current study highlight the most significant traffic parameters that influence the lane change frequency. This research recommends strict enforcement of lane discipline to counter traffic congestion and the remedial measures that are to be taken for the improvement of better and sustainable road infrastructure conditions. Overall the research study will have practical implications for improving traffic management and safety on highways, and it provides a foundation for further research in the field of traffic-related technologies.

Traffic Signal Pattern Algorithm
Authors: Patil Vrushal
Published: December 2023

Abstract: Every day we are witnessing a rapid increase in traffic volume on roads. Traffic signals are made to manage the traffic to get less disturbance during the journey and to avoid collisions. Sometimes these traffic signals might become a reason for a delay due to poor time management at signal timings. The old traffic signal patterns are the main cause of this issue and hence this project of new signalling patterns will help in using traffic signals more efficiently. In the traditional pattern at a crossover only one signal can be opened but using our pattern algorithm more than one signal can be opened and traffic could clear more easily. Even concepts of image processing are used to make the system more automated and intelligent.

A Critical Study on the Characteristics of Knowledge Workers
Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Kim Juseuk
Published: December 2023

Objectives The supply-demand model in the labor market of the existing industrial society has limitations for sustainable human resource utilization. This is because the labor market has changed due to the advent of the knowledge economy society. Therefore, this study intends to carry out a critical examination of the characteristics of human resources in the knowledge society.
Methods The economic paradigm and corporate labor environment of the existing industrial society and the knowledge-based economy were compared and analyzed. The overall characteristics and limitations of knowledge workers was discussed. Therefore, the issues of knowledge workers were analyzed in terms of productivity, motivation, and performance management, and the characteristics of general workers and knowledge workers were derived to raise issues about knowledge workers in terms of productivity and motivation.
Results The characteristics of knowledge workers in the knowledge-based economy show that they are motivated through work achievement through the use of knowledge and challenging work performance rather than existing monetary and time compensation. If the company does not satisfy the motivation of knowledge workers, knowledge workers choose to change jobs more easily than existing workers.
Conclusions In conclusion, these knowledge workers show that non-monetary compensation is important in addition to various existing incentives and monetary compensation. Therefore, non-monetary compensation requires maximizing knowledge creation, transfer, and utilization within the organization. In addition, it can be suggested as an implication that efforts to promote self-realization and motivation of knowledge workers are included through the development of companies into learning-oriented organizations.

Objectives In this study, mathematical storytelling materials were developed using situations or mathematical history that students could easily experience with the aim of enhancing mathematical creativity and mathematical attitudes. In this way, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect on the improvement of students' mathematical creativity and mathematical attitudes after conducting learning activities.
Methods This study was conducted on 56 students in two classes in the second grade of 00 High School in the humanities of 00 metropolitan city. Based on the midterm exam results of the first semester of the second grade, two classes with similar averages were selected, one class was divided into experimental classes and the other class was divided into comparative classes, and 13 classes were conducted for about two months from May 3 to July 4, 2020. The experimental group (28 students) conducted classes using mathematical storytelling materials developed by the researcher, and the comparative group (28 students) conducted traditional classes centered on textbooks and teacher guidance.
Results The results were obtained as follows by analyzing the effect of classes using mathematical storytelling materials on students' mathematical creativity and mathematical attitudes. First, mathematical creativity and mathematical attitude could be enhanced by classes using mathematical storytelling materials. Second, the mathematical creativity of each group of experimental and comparative classes was analyzed. Classes using mathematical storytelling materials were more effective in mathematical creativity and mathematical attitudes compared to traditional classes centered on textbooks and teacher guides for students in the upper, middle, and lower grades. Third, classes using math storytelling materials changed students' interest. However, students in the lower group tended to bring inferiority within the team. Therefore, in classes using math storytelling materials, it should be guided that lower-class students should learn in cooperation with other students without feeling inferior.
Conclusions In conclusion, the experimental class that used mathematical storytelling data was more effective in mathematical creativity and mathematical attitudes than the comparative class.
