En la actualidad el uso de las herramientas tecnológicas ha tomado un papel
fundamental en la cotidianidad. Hoy en día es cada vez más común ver a niños utilizando
un aparato electrónico, para ellos, comienza a ser más interesante la manipulación e
interacción con las herramientas tecnológicas. Analizando esta situación surge el
siguiente cuestionamiento ¿si todo nuestro entorno está siendo adaptado a las
herramientas tecnológicas, por qué nuestras prácticas educativas siguen siendo
convencionales? Una problemática actual en México es la lectoescritura, comprendiéndose
según la Real Academia (Española, 2024) como la capacidad de leer y escribir, así como
la enseñanza-aprendizaje de la lectura simultáneamente con la escritura. Este problema
se agravó a consecuencia de la actual pandemia ocasionada por el virus COVID-19. Según
la organización México Evalúa y la Iniciativa de Educación con Equidad y Calidad (IEEC)
de la Escuela de Gobierno y Transformación Pública del Tecnológico de Monterrey en su
estudio denominado “Operación regreso a clases: la experiencia estatal 2021” las
consecuencias de la pandemia en la educación son, la pérdida de aprendizajes adquiridos,
más los programados de un año o hasta dos de rezago educativo para los más
vulnerables.

The symptoms of a condition called dysmenorrhea include severe, painful cramps and lower abdominal cramping sensations. Primary dysmenorrhea is 72.89% common in Indonesia, but dysmenorrhea prevalence varies from 45% to 95% in women of reproductive age. It has been determined through research at SMAN 1 Tambun Utara that dysmenorrhea affects up to 65% of students with abnormal nutritional status and 39.3% of students with normal nutritional status. The purpose of this study is to ascertain how the occurrence of primary dysmenorrhea in SMAN 1 Tambun Utara students is related to their nutritional status and level of physical activity. A cross-sectional study design and quantitative analysis techniques were used in the investigation. 95 students made up the sample, which was chosen using the stratified random sampling technique. Two phases of data analysis—univariate and bivariate analysis—were used. The kai squared test with α = 0.05 was used to examine the data. The findings demonstrated a correlation between the occurrence of primary dysmenorrhea and both physical activity (p-value = 0.000) and nutritional status (p-value = 0.000). The findings of this study suggest a relationship between the occurrence of primary dysmenorrhea and physical activity and nutritional status. A balanced and nutritious diet, regular weight checks, regular exercise, and abstaining from unhealthy behaviors that can lead to primary dysmenorrhea are all healthy lifestyle choices that students aspire to.

Published: December 2024

This study aimed to examine and critique the current state of general education from the perspective of education experts and curriculum planners. Due to the nature and characteristics of the subject, the qualitative research method based on the grounded theory paradigm model was employed. The participants included articles related to the research topic published between 2011 and 2021, as well as curriculum and education specialists. The sample size, determined by theoretical saturation, consisted of 21 cases (4 articles and 17 participants). The sampling method was snowball sampling, and semi-structured interviews were used as the research tool. To ensure research validity, four criteria—credibility, transferability, confirmability, and dependability—were applied. Additionally, inter-coder agreement was used to assess reliability, yielding a value of 0.84. The findings indicated that the paradigmatic model for general education, as perceived by education experts and curriculum planners, is influenced by 19 main categories, 49 subcategories, and 262 open codes. Based on the results, it is recommended that managers move away from stereotypical and superficial thinking. Instead of using predefined frameworks, they should develop new frameworks for general education tailored to the needs of the modern world. Furthermore, a participatory approach (utilizing the views and opinions of actors involved in the education system) should be employed in policy formulation.

This research is qualitative in nature, and the method used for analysis was thematic analysis as described by Braun and Clarke (2006). After reviewing the literature and extracting codes and analyzing them for each area of visual art and music talent in children, two themes were selected: discovery and development of talent. The themes related to visual art talent development in children included 35 main themes and 96 sub-themes, while those related to music talent development included 20 main themes and 68 sub-themes. The development of visual art and music talent, based on Piirto's Talent Development Pyramid, in preschool children, provides practical components and necessary validity for the discovery of tools, games, and activities aimed at nurturing children's talents. Utilizing Piirto's Talent Development Pyramid to discover and foster children's visual art and music talents not only helps in identifying and developing specific abilities but also promotes the overall growth of their social skills, creativity, and self-confidence. This process aids children in entering the world of art and music naturally and with enjoyment, laying the foundation for their talent development in later stages of life. Therefore, it is recommended that this package be used by parents and educators in training centers to identify and nurture children's visual art talents.

FINANCIAL FRAUD DETECTION USING VALUE AT RISK WITH MACHINE LEARNING IN SKEWED DATA
Authors: K. KUMARASWAMY , CH. RASHMITHA , B. SHARVANI SHARMA , E. MANISHA
Published: December 2024

The significant losses that banks and other financial organizations suffered due to new bank account (NBA) fraud are alarming as the number of online banking service users increases. The inherent skewness and rarity of NBA fraud instances have been a major challenge to the machine learning (ML) models and happen when non-fraud instances outweigh the fraud instances, which leads the ML models to overlook and erroneously consider fraud as non-fraud instances. Such errors can erode the confidence and trust of customers. Existing studies consider fraud patterns instead of potential losses of NBA fraud risk features while addressing the skewness of fraud datasets. The detection of NBA fraud is proposed in this research within the context of value-at-risk as a risk measure that considers fraud instances as a worst-case scenario. Value-at-risk uses historical simulation to estimate potential losses of risk features and model them as a skewed tail distribution. The risk-return features obtained from value-at-risk were classified using ML on the bank account fraud (BAF) Dataset. The value-at-risk handles the fraud skewness using an adjustable threshold probability range to attach weight to the skewed NBA fraud instances. A novel detection rate (DT) metric that considers risk fraud features was used to measure the performance of the fraud detection model. An improved fraud detection model is achieved using a K-nearest neighbor with a true positive (TP) rate of 0.95 and a DT rate of 0.9406. Under an acceptable loss tolerance in the banking sector, value-at-risk presents an intelligent approach for establishing data-driven criteria for fraud risk management.

Transitional Justice: Tasks Local and Provincial Governments Can Undertake in Nepal
Authors:   Assistant Professor, Madan Bhandari Memorial College, Kathmandu, Nepal, S. Mainali
Published: December 2024

The Government of Nepal (GoN) signed a Comprehensive Peace Accord (CPA) with the Communist Party of Nepal (CPN) Maoist in 2006, ending a decade-long armed communist insurgency. However, tasks concerning transitional justice (TJ) remain unfulfilled. Following the promulgation of the constitution in 2015, Nepal established a three-tier government system. To address Nepal's TJ process in a holistic manner, this study identifies tasks that local and provincial governments can efficiently perform. The constitution, along with several acts, policies, and directives, has been reviewed to determine the scope of local and provincial governments in carrying out TJ-related activities. The review indicates that while both provincial and local governments have vital roles to play, the role of local governments could be more significant if they execute activities in close consultation and collaboration with the central and provincial governments, as well as other state organs.

The background of this research is that there are still many reading difficulties experienced by children with special needs with dyslexia. This happens because of the lack of more attention that teachers should give to dyslexic students, and also because there are several factors such as biological, cognitive, and problems in social relationships that cause children to experience dyslexia. The aims of this research are (1) to find out reading difficulties for dyslexic children at Pembina State SLB Palembang, (2) to find out the factors that influence reading difficulties for dyslexic children at Pembina State SLB Palembang, (3) to find out efforts teachers in overcoming reading difficulties for dyslexic children at Pembina Palembang State SLB. The type of this research is qualitative research with a qualitative descriptive approach. The results of this study are as follows. (1) There are three dyslexic students at the school, namely student D, student S, and student R. The difficulty in reading for dyslexic children at the Pembina Palembang State Special School is that there are three dyslexic students at the school, namely student D, student S, and student R. Students D & S students have difficulty distinguishing letters and numbers (directional dyslexia), and can only read if they read one letter at a time to understand their meaning (Spelling Dyslexia). Meanwhile, student R has difficulty in spelling words into syllables (Phonological Dyslexia). (2) Factors that influence reading difficulties for dyslexic children at SLB Pembina Palembang are environmental factors, lack of motivation to practice, and lack of interest in learning. (3) The teacher's efforts in overcoming reading difficulties for dyslexic children at Pembina Palembang State Special School are using the letter recognition method, using the image method, and paying special attention, both through special learning after KBM and parental guidance and motivation at home.
A look at Chile´s position in Spain´s macroeconomy as seen through her seventeenth-century maritime circuits
Authors: Stewart Daniel
Published: December 2024

This paper looks at Chile´s participation in the large macroeconomy of the Spanish empire by analyzing her maritime circuits. Four distinct maritime circuits, scout ship, real situado, Valdivia supply run, and merchant are identified and explored within their seventeenth-century historical context. Lastly, we discover how administrative issues and natural disasters within these circuits led not only to financial losses by Chile´s agricultural producers, but also the extension and expansion of the Arauco Indian war.
Reforma agraria y cooperativismo en Chile: el plan Pisquero (1964-1970)
Authors: Valenzuela Paterakis Nicolás , Salinas Constanza , Lacoste Pablo
Published: December 2024

Se examina el Plan Pisquero por medio del cual el Estado impulsó el fortalecimiento del destilado patrimonial típico de Chile en forma articulada con el fortalecimiento de la cultura cooperativista y la Reforma Agraria. El estudio se realiza a través de fuentes originales inéditas, principalmente las actas de la cooperativa Control, juntamente con prensa de la época, entrevistas a actores relevantes y debates parlamentarios. Se detecta que el proyecto alcanzó sus objetivos, pues la producción pisquera logró un salto considerable al pasar de la era artesanal a la industrial, lo cual permitió fortalecer la economía regional y avanzar en el proceso de sustitución de importaciones. Paralelamente se fortalecieron las cooperativas pisqueras, cuya solidez les permitió mantenerse como actores relevantes en el siguiente medio siglo. Asímismo, el Plan Pisquero se articuló adecuadamente con los campesinos beneficiarios de la Reforma Agraria, que encontraron en las cooperativas un espacio adecuado para integrarse en las cadenas de valor a través del ecosistema pisquero.
humanistas, os cristãos-novos e a construcção de um porto atrântico no século XVI
Authors: Barros Amândio
Published: December 2024

Cuando pensamos en un puerto, la primera idea que nos viene a la mente es que se trata de una infraestructura económica. Pero es mucho más. El puerto es un espacio de múltiples dinámicas y es objeto de múltiples intervenciones. A lo largo de la historia ha sido una zona de contacto, un espacio de circulación de personas, mercancías, ideas y modas. En la Edad Moderna, asistimos a la elevación del estatus de algunos puertos gracias al dinamismo de sus mercaderes, sus agentes marítimos y la manera en que lograron afirmarse en zonas emergentes. En este caso, en el mundo atlántico. Este artículo trata de un puerto atlántico, Oporto, en el norte de Portugal, el cual gracias al dinamismo de sus agentes -desde la Edad Media- consiguió convertirse en un espacio de referencia. Es esta evolución la que se analiza a continuación mostrando, por otra parte, que el mar y los puertos constituyen ricos ámbitos de estudios interdisciplinarios.
La guerra comercial en William Morris: una aproximación a la industria de alcoholes y las denominaciones de origen
Authors: Cofre Silva Carolina
Published: December 2024

Este trabajo explora como las reflexiones de William Morris ante los males de la industrialización se pueden relacionar con la crisis de adulteraciones y falsificaciones que afectó a la industria de bebidas alcohólicas entre finales del siglo XIX e inicios del siglo XX. A partir de la lectura del texto Cómo vivimos y cómo podríamos vivir se mostrará como las presiones de la industria llevaron a generar prácticas que buscaban de ventajas comerciales en desmedro de la calidad de vida de las personas y de productos tradicionales que lucharían por no caer en el olvido.
Principales tendencias de las tasas de suicidio en Chile: 1921-2020

Los principales objetivos de este artículo son proporcionar la serie más larga jamás realizada para un país latinoamericano sobre el número y la tasa de suicidios, desde 1921 hasta 2020, identificando sus principales tendencias y cambios en la mortalidad por suicidio tanto en el corto como en el largo plazo; y desagregar estas series por género y grupos de edad, para identificar los principales patrones y cambios a lo largo del tiempo para estas variables, incluyendo cambios en la brecha de género. Encontramos que durante el último siglo ha habido cambios importantes en el perfil de suicidio de Chile y su importancia relativa como causa de muerte. Durante la década de 1920- 1940, alrededor de dos de cada 1.000 muertes (0,2%) fueron resultado de suicidio en Chile. Esa tasa ha sido aproximadamente diez veces mayor (2%) durante las últimas dos décadas. La tasa actual de suicidio para el país es superior a 10 por cada 100.000 habitantes, por encima del promedio mundial. La tasa de suicidios entre los hombres durante las dos últimas décadas es de alrededor del 18%, frente al 3,6% entre las mujeres: se trata de la brecha más grande jamás

observada desde la década de 1920. Durante la década de 2010, más de la mitad de todos los suicidios (53%) fueron cometidos por personas de 40 años o más, un aumento respecto del 23% durante la década de 1920. Finalmente, una abrumadora proporción de suicidios en Chile son cometidos por hombres mayores de 50 años: el 29% de todos los suicidios durante la década de 2010 (frente al 10% en la década de 1920).

Published: December 2024

Avocado peel, with a high proportion of bioactive compounds, is usually discarded as waste.     Preliminary study was carried out to determine the most suitable solvent (out of acetones, water, ethanol and methanol) for extraction of antioxidants from avocado peel. Free radical scavenging activity (DPPH), Ferric reducing antioxidant (FRAP) and total phenolic content (TPC) were evaluated as responses. The oxidative stability of cooked ground beef, fish, oil samples (soybean, palm, groundnut) treated with optimum concentration of avocado peel ethanol extract (APE) was evaluated over time using standard procedures. Although methanol had a significantly higher (p<0.05) TPC and FRAP, it was not significantly different (p>0.05) in DPPH from ethanol; hence ethanol was selected based on its known low-toxicity. Results indicated that process variables with. Optimum solvent concentration, extraction time and extraction temperature with the highest desirability index of 0.868 was 80 %, 90 min and 60 օC respectively. Cooked ground beef and fish treated with > 0.3 % APE resulted in a more significant reduction (p<0.05) in pH values than the positive control (0.1 % BHT). However, there was no significant difference (p>0.05) in TBARS in both ground beef and fish samples treated with 0.5% APE and the positive control. Similarly, treatment with APE significantly reduced peroxide value (PV) in order groundnut oil>soybean oil> and palm oil and acid value (AV) in the order soybean oil> groundnut oil > palm oil used in this study. The minimum inhibitory concentration of APE was 20 mg/ml for S. aureus, 10 mg/mL for S. typhi and E. coli. The preservative effect of APE increased with increase in concentration of APE. Thus, its potentials in preservation of food products.
A Review of the Qualitative and Quantitative Hydrocarbon Potential of the Offshore Liberian Basin

Published: December 2024

This report focuses on the assessment of potential for undiscovered, technically recoverable oil and gas resources within the Liberian offshore Basin. The 2D and 3D seismic reports were used to generate and evaluate the reservoir systems of the basin, and the syn-rift section. The results show that sediments were deposited during relative sea-level fall along the shoreline. Pyrolysis results indicate a TOC of 2.6 wt% across the basin.  However, Carmine Deep-1 has a TOC range of 1.3-2.55wt%, as well as Nighthawk-1 shows a TOC range of 0.52-3.6 8wt%. This is an indication of mature source rock. The vitrinite reflectance from predrill data analysis (Rock-Eval analysis) has a range of 0.77R% for Carmine Deep-1 and 0.97R% for Nighthawk-1 well. This also shows that the source rock is in the early Mature stage and the type of organic matter present in Carmine-1 formation is different compared to Nighthawk formation. Geochemical analysis from predrill and exploration data of the biomarker shows the presence of an extended tricyclic terpanes in Carmine Deep-1 well, which indicates that marine upwelling took place during the Aptian-Upper Albian/Cenomanian-Turonian interval. This shows that the Aptian-upper Albian/Cenomanian-Turonian interval experienced favourable conditions for organic matter productivity and the development of good hydrocarbon source rocks. The results imply that the basin has a good source rock quality and quantity with Nighthawk-1 and Carmine Deep-1 indicating good source potential, hence, has provided a framework for future prediction of good source rock performance.
