El impacto de las tecnologías digitales en el aprendizaje de Matemáticas y Estadística
Authors: Armas Real Daniel Alberto
Published: December 2024

El artículo analiza el impacto de las herramientas tecnológicas en la educación y aprendizaje de Matemáticas y Estadística, destacando su capacidad para transformar métodos pedagógicos tradicionales. Herramientas como GeoGebra, MATLAB y plataformas adaptativas permiten representar conceptos abstractos de manera dinámica, fomentando un entendimiento más significativo y una conexión práctica con la realidad. Además, estas tecnologías personalizan el aprendizaje, mejoran la motivación y facilitan la intervención docente mediante el monitoreo en tiempo real del progreso estudiantil. No obstante, se reconocen desafíos significativos, como la disparidad tecnológica en regiones con acceso limitado a recursos, y la necesidad de capacitar tanto a docentes como a estudiantes para el uso efectivo de estas herramientas. También se alerta sobre los riesgos de una dependencia excesiva en las tecnologías, que podría limitar el fomento de competencias esenciales, como el pensamiento lógico y la interpretación analítica. El artículo concluye que, aunque las tecnologías digitales ofrecen un potencial significativo para enriquecer el aprendizaje y preparar a los estudiantes para un mundo globalizado, su implementación debe ser equilibrada, complementando métodos tradicionales y fomentando un enfoque crítico. Además, se enfatiza la necesidad de políticas públicas inclusivas para garantizar el acceso equitativo y sostenible a estas herramientas.

YENİ BULGULAR IŞIĞINDA KADRİ BABA TEKKESİ (SAKA BABA DERGÂHI)
Authors: Acıoğlu Yusuf
Published: December 2024

Bu çalışmada, Çanakkale İli, Eceabat İlçesi, Kilitbahir Köyü sınırları içerisinde yer alan Kadri Baba Tekkesi (Saka Baba Dergâhı) olarak bilinen yapı tanıtılmaktadır. Yapı ile ilgili yakın bir zamanda yayınlanan bir makalede sadece yapının ismi ve haziresindeki mezar taşları üzerinde durulmuştur. Mimarisi ve Bektaşi Tekkeleri içerisindeki yeri üzerinde durulmamıştır. Bu nedenle yeni veriler ışığında yapının ismi ile ilgili tarihsel sürecin aydınlatılması, mimari ve süsleme özellikleri bakımından Bektaşi tekkeleri içerisindeki yerinin belirlenmesi çalışmanın amacını oluşturmuştur. Bu kapsamda yapı ile ilgili arşiv taraması yapılarak mimarisi çözümlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Haziresi daha önce konu edinildiği için burada genel durumu ve sadece tarihsel sürecin anlatımında ihtiyaç duyulan mezar taşlarına yer verilmiştir. Yapı, 17. yüzyıldan itibaren varlığı bilinen bir Bektaşi tekkesi olup, 20. yüzyılın ilk yarısına kadar korunmuş sonrasında ise harap hale gelmiştir. Günümüze kadar çeşitli isimler ile anılan yapının ilk isminin “Kadri Baba Zaviyesi” olduğu anlaşılmıştır. Tekke; hazire, türbe ve diğer birimler olmak üzere üç ana bölümden oluşmaktadır. Hazire alanında toplam 28 mezar bulunmakta olup bu mezarlara ait 14 başucu taşı, 12 ayakucu taşı ve bir başlık olmak üzere toplam 27 parça mezar taşı görülmektedir. Bunların en erkeni bir dönem tekkeye ismini veren Saka Baba’ya ait M.1766/1767 (H. 1180) tarihli taştır. En geç tarihlisi ise M. 1906/1907 (H. 1324) tarihli Mahmut Efendi’ninkidir. Başucu taşlarından anlaşıldığı kadarıyla mevcut mezar taşlarının 11’i erkek, 3’ü kadın mezar taşıdır. Büyük ölçüde günümüze sağlam bir şekilde ulaşan Türbe kare planlı bir yapıdır. Bugün dört duvarı ayakta olup çatısı yıkılmış, iç ve dış cephesi ile kapısı zarar görmüştür. Yapının eski haline ait görüntülere göre örtü sistemi içten bağdadi sıvalı sekizgen yıldız tavanlı, dıştan alaturka kiremitle örtülü pramidal çatıdır. Türbenin güneybatısında yer alan diğer birimlerin üst kotları tamamen yıkılmış, sadece alt kotta bulunan duvarları kalmıştır. Mevcut veriler ışığında yapılan tespitler sonucunda Kadri Baba Tekkesi’nin hem taşrada yer alması hem de bulunduğu arazinin zorluğu ve darlığı nedeniyle bir avlu etrafında toplanmak yerine dar bir yolun iki yanına sıralı yapılardan oluştuğu söylenebilir. Tüm bu özellikleri ile Kadri Baba Tekkesi, plan, malzeme ve teknik bakımdan Bektaşi Tekkelerinin genel özellikleri yansıtan, boyutları ve konumu itibarıyla da kentin önemli yapılarından birini teşkil etmektedir.

There has been an outcry over the non-inclusion of persons with disability in Nigeria’s elections due to the unavailability of assistive aids. This study investigated elections and assistive technologies for persons with a disability during the 2023 general elections in Akwa Ibom State Nigeria. The objectives of the study were to examine how the provision of voting procedures for hearing-impaired persons enhanced their participation in Akwa Ibom State; to investigate how accessible polling units increased participation of mobility-impaired persons; and to find out how Braille ballots enhanced election participation of visually impaired persons in Akwa Ibom State, during the 2023 general election. The study adopted the social model of disability theory as the theoretical framework. The cross-sectional and descriptive technique were adopted with a population of 1101 registered persons with a disability during the 2023 general elections Akwa Ibom State. Data used in this study was gathered from primary and secondary sources. It was discovered, among others, that the majority of the units had no ramps to support mobility as well as inaccessible polling booths for voting convenience for mobility-impaired persons. Based on these findings, the study recommended that the INEC should ensure that in addition to the voting procedures, each polling station must have trained sign language interpreters to assist hearing impaired persons.
Contemporary Community Policing and National Security in Nigeria
Authors:   Department of Public Administration, Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago-Iwoye, Nigeria, Oikhala Gabriel I.
Published: December 2024

Crime has been identified as the most endemic problem affecting security in Nigeria. This was confirmed by the United Nations which listed Nigeria among the fifteen countries of the world that are most vulnerable to insecurity. Just like a natural disaster, crime and insecurity retard a nation’s progress. Thus, the amended 1999 Constitution of Nigeria prescribed a national police structure to maintain internal security for the country. Noting that its incident-driven policing approach has not provided adequate security for Nigeria, the police reinforced it with a police-community partnership paradigm. Even with this, frequent cases of bombings from Boko-Haram, brutal attacks on communities by herdsmen, kidnappings, killings and harvesting of human organs for money rituals among others have not reduced. The paper interrogated the challenges of contemporary community policing against national security in Nigeria and what should be done. It is an analytical-empirical paper whose data were sourced from relevant published materials and observation methods. The data were analysed through descriptive methods. Using the liberal structural conflict theory as a theoretical framework, community policing was found appropriate to deal with national security issues in Nigeria. However, among other challenges, the existing community policing was identified as incompatible with the present Nigerian political environment. Hence, it has failed to guarantee security in Nigeria. The paper concluded that community policing is central to the proper management of public security and recommended comprehensive community policing to deal with national security issues in the country.

This study examined the impact of capital market financing on the Nigerian manufacturing sector growth. The study captured capital market financing with equity financing, debt financing, foreign direct investments (FDIs) and market capitalization as explanatory variables, while foreign exchange rate and foreign portfolio investments (FPIs) were used as control variables. Manufacturing sector growth was measured by manufacturing sector value added (MVA). The study adopted an ex-post facto research design. To estimate the impact of capital market financing on manufacturing sector growth, the study employed and modified the supply-leading hypothesis, to capture variables of interest using secondary sources of data in the form of annual data that spanned the period (1981-2022). The study used the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model for its estimation. From the estimations, it was observed that a long-run relationship existed between the independent variables and the dependent variable using the ARDL bounds test procedure. Also, the long-run estimation results showed that equity financing and FPIs had a positive and insignificant impact on MVA, indicating an increase but little impact of equity financing and FPIs on manufacturing sector growth. However, debt financing and exchange rate exerted a positive and significant impact on MVA in the long run, implying an increasing and considerable impact on manufacturing sector growth. However, FDI had a negative and significant effect on the MVA of the Nigerian economy, indicating that FDI caused the manufacturing sector to decrease. Debt financing, in the long run, had a positive and significant impact on manufacturing sector value added, meaning that debt financing exerted an increasing impact on manufacturing sector growth. Hence, from the findings of the study, capital market financing was a good policy option for manufacturing growth in Nigeria.

The paper examined the impact of the cashless policy on the growth of small and medium-scale businesses in Uyo Metropolis between 2022 and 2023. The diffusion of innovation theory was adopted as the theoretical framework for the study. The study used both qualitative and quantitative methods of data collection. A survey research design was adopted for the study. The data collected from secondary and primary sources were analyzed using descriptive and quantitative techniques. The Pearson’s Moment Correlation Statistical Technique was used to test hypotheses. The findings of the study revealed that there is a significant relationship between Cashless Policy and POS employment opportunities in Uyo Metropolis; there is a significant relationship between Cashless Policy and the financial security of SMEs in Uyo Metropolis. The study, therefore, recommended, among other measures, that the federal government should work on improving the network base to ease transactions and reduce transaction risks to encourage more people to venture into POS businesses; the government should devise strategies to strengthen its technology to reduce the rate of cybercrime as it will bring more financial security to SMEs operators; and that government should address power supply outages to ensure uninterrupted cashless transactions.

Published: December 2024

The chief executive officer adds to the firm’s worth as a key member of the senior management team. Using samples from deposit money banks listed on the Nigerian Exchange Group floor between 2013 and 2022, this study investigated the relationship between CEO characteristics and the firm’s value. The independent variable, Chief Executive Officers' attributes, had the CEO’s educational background, tenure in office, compensation, and gender diversity as proxies, all of which were in accordance with the principles of upper-echelon theory, which holds that businesses are reflective of the cognitive behaviours of the CEO. Firm value as determined by market capitalization served as the dependent variable. The ex post facto research design was used, and the population of this study comprised all the 13 deposit money banks listed on the floor of the Nigerian Exchange Group as of 31st December 2022. Four hypotheses were tested at the 0.05% significance level using the ordinary regression technique. The statistical package used was STATA 16, and the analysis results showed that CEO attributes have significant positive effects on the firm value of listed deposit money banks in Nigeria. Therefore, it was concluded that CEO attributes significantly affect the value of listed deposit money banks in Nigeria. It was recommended, among others, that deposit money banks should appoint CEOs with postgraduate or professional qualifications, as higher academic qualifications come with expertise and a wealth of knowledge that help the firms to be more prolific in performance.

Authors:   Department of Political Science, Faculty of Behavioural Sciences, Dennis Osadebay University, Asaba, Odigbo Chukwudebe Stanley
Published: December 2024

Globally, the place of research in achieving innovation to build critical institutional capacities for good governance and development is widely acknowledged. Yet Delta State is today bedevilled with several developmental challenges. Drawing from the perspectives of two theoretical models, rational choice and organizational development, this study interrogated the utilization of research by the state civil service since its inception. Empirical data obtained through questionnaires, interviews and published materials reveal that contrary to widespread beliefs, the bane is the civil service system, not its political leadership. This provided an interesting challenge for civil service management, even as the study found the majority to have a high degree and positive level of perception of research in service delivery. It recommended periodic impact assessment studies and a review of relevant extant rules with in-built provisions for rewards and incentives to stimulate independent research efforts.

As a country with the largest population and vast territory, Indonesia faces significant challenges in household waste management. The management of household waste in Indonesia still encounters several obstacles, including economic, socio-cultural, and technological constraints. To address this issue, the government has enacted several laws related to household waste management. The purpose of this study is to understand the role of Ma'had Al-Zaytun in household waste management based on Government Regulation No. 81 of 2012 and Fiqh Siyasah. The author uses a library research method with a legal research approach conducted in a juridical-normative manner. The research results show that the role of Ma'had Al-Zaytun in household waste management based on Government Regulation No. 81 of 2012 includes implementing the 4R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Replace) strategy by collecting food scraps and processing them into silage for animal feed. Additionally, livestock manure is processed into organic fertilizer for agriculture. Furthermore, based on Fiqh Siyasah, the study integrates environmental principles from the perspective of Islamic teachings in the approach to waste management, ensuring that waste management actions not only comply with government regulations but are also grounded in religious values that guide environmental protection and the well-being of humanity.
PENERAPAN HUKUM TATA NEGARA DALAM SISTEM PEMERINTAHAN DI INDONESIA: TANTANGAN DALAM DINAMIKA POLITIK KONTEMPORER
Authors: Trianjaya Muhammad Ide
Published: December 2024

Constitutional Law is a branch of legal science that governs the mechanisms of governmental administration, relationships between state institutions, and interactions between the state and its citizens. In Indonesia, its application is based on Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution as the primary normative framework. However, contemporary political dynamics present several challenges, such as the politicization of state institutions, conflicts of interest, and the impact of globalization, which affect the effectiveness of its implementation. This study analyze the application of Constitutional Law within Indonesia's governmental system, identify the main obstacles faced, and propose adaptive strategies to enhance its effectiveness. A qualitative approach employing descriptive-analytical methods was utilized, supported by doctrinal studies of primary legal sources, as well as a comparative method to examine legal practices in other countries. The findings indicate that although the constitutional legal framework has adopted principles of the rule of law, equality before the law, and human rights protection, structural challenges such as corruption, weak oversight of judicial institutions, and conflicts between government policies and human rights remain significant barriers. Therefore, systemic reforms, the strengthening of institutional independence, increased public participation in legislation, and widespread political education are required to support more effective, just, and transparent governance.

Purpose: Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrythmia seen after coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG). AF significantly increases the risk of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, and stroke. There are many publications about why POAF develops. However, the duration of patients` stay in POAF has not been adequately investigated. Current study is the first in the literature to investigate the factors affecting the duration of POAF. Methods: 110 patients who developed AF after CABG were divided into groups according to the duration of their stay in AF (Group 1; <24 hours, Group 2 ;24-48 h, Group 3; > 48 h). We compared the factors that could be related with the duration of POAF. Results: Pre op calculated systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) was found to be lower in group 2 (p: 0,007) and in group 3 (p: 0,029). Postoperative bleeding revision was found to be higher in group 2 (p: 0,025) and incidence of postoperative high diastolic blood pressure was found to be higher in group 2 (p:0,011) and group 3 (p: 0,004). Permanent AF was detected in 11 of the patients during long-term follow-up. The incidence of permanent AF was higher in group 3 (p: 0.018) and in patients with high Syntax SCORE 1 (p: 0.026). Conclusion: Diastolic blood pressure, low preoperative SII levels and postoperative bleeding revision are independent risk factors that affect the duration of POAF. Permanent AF was associated with high Syntax SCORE 1 and prolonged POAF duration.
