THE ROLE OF PARENTS IN FOSTERING ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP IN CHILDREN
Authors: Hassan Najmaldin Ezaldin , Khalil Sonia
Published: December 2024

The role of parents in fostering environmental stewardship in children is essential to addressing the pressing environmental challenges of the 21st century. Parents shape their children’s attitudes toward the environment through modeling behavior, communication, and engaging them in outdoor activities. Environmental Socialization Theory explains how children learn environmental values through family interactions, and parental behaviors such as recycling or conservation strongly influence children's pro-environmental actions. By encouraging outdoor play, discussing sustainability at home, and integrating environmental practices into daily routines, parents can help develop environmental responsibility in children. Additionally, family participation in community clean-ups and collaboration with schools enriches children's environmental education. However, challenges such as socioeconomic constraints, time limitations, and urban lifestyles may hinder parental engagement in fostering environmental values. Case studies of successful programs, such as family nature clubs and eco-parenting initiatives, illustrate how structured activities and family involvement can significantly enhance children's environmental awareness and behavior, preparing them to contribute to a sustainable future.
« Mécanique des roches, mécanique des mots », des collégiens médiateurs scientifiques d’une visite géologique en ville
Authors: Swialkowski Mickaël , Usaï-Breux Emmanuelle , Boutry Laetitia
Published: December 2024

Cet article relate une expérience pédagogique innovante menée au collège Val de la Sensée avec une classe d’élèves de 3e. Lors de l’année scolaire 2023-2024, le projet intitulé « Mécanique des roches, mécanique des mots » s’est inscrit dans le Projet Éducatif Départemental du Collégien (PEDC) de l’établissement. En conformité avec les programmes scolaires, une équipe de trois enseignants en Sciences de la Vie et de la Terre, en Lettres modernes et en Technologie a fait travailler les élèves en interdisciplinarité. À partir d’une visite géologique de la ville de Douai, les élèves ont étudié les matériaux utilisés pour la construction des bâtiments et les ont décrits grâce au vocabulaire des sensations. Ils ont dû démontrer l’impact des activités humaines sur la ville. Grâce aux mesures de protection, sous la forme de Plans de Prévention du Risque Écroulement (PPRE) et Inondation (PPRI), les élèves ont décrit les matériaux des édifices utilisés permettant de réduire l’un ou l’autre risque. Ils ont ainsi pu se rendre compte de l’importance du choix des matériaux dans la construction.Pour transposer cette visite de Douai, les élèves ont programmé une application pour tablette numérique. Le visiteur est guidé virtuellement et découvre les bâtiments autrement. La description est agrémentée de photographies d’élèves, de connaissances scientifiques, historiques et littéraires. Ainsi, ils sont devenus des médiateurs scientifiques d’une visite géologique en ville.

This article will describe the digital resources that make available different aspects of the Darwin Archive, from the twentieth century Darwin Correspondence Project to the recent Epsilon.ac.uk and explain the relationships between them.
L’enseignement de la géologie sensu lato à l’Université de Lille de 1858 à 1939
Authors: Cuvelier Jessie
Published: December 2024

La période allant de 1860 à 1940 est une ère pendant laquelle l’enseignement supérieur a été contraint de s’adapter à la modernisation de la société, à l’industrialisation et surtout à l’encadrement des formations professionnelles par l’État. L’objectif des réformes universitaires de la IIIe République était de promouvoir dans les universités provinciales des centres de recherche, appuyés à un enseignement. Les cours de géologie et de minéralogie à l'Université de Lille, entamés en 1858 et consacrés par la création d’une chaire en 1864, ont été instaurés dans ce contexte. Une étude des rapports annuels de la Faculté des sciences de Lille permet de comprendre l’organisation de la formation en géologie dispensée à Lille par le prisme de ses composants, que sont l’équipe d’enseignants, les étudiants et les cours. Tout d’abord, l’école lilloise de géologie a été constituée et dynamisée par Jules Gosselet, premier titulaire de la chaire de géologie et de minéralogie, soucieux de répondre par la pédagogie aux besoins de la société en matière d’éducation. Une analyse qualitative et quantitative des étudiants, de licence au doctorat, met en évidence la diversité des profils des élèves, ainsi que l’attractivité de cette école géologique sur le territoire national. Pour terminer, la description de la formation disciplinaire délivrée en sciences de la Terre laisse entrevoir les connaissances théoriques et le savoir-faire transmis au moyen de cours magistraux, de travaux pratiques, mais également d’excursions géologiques régulières.
La contribution des chaires de « géologie » des facultés des sciences au développement et à la diffusion des sciences géologiques au XIXe siècle
Authors: Savaton Pierre
Published: December 2024

Les chaires créées dans les facultés des sciences à partir de 1808 avaient pour objectif de faire passer les épreuves du baccalauréat aux élèves des collèges et des lycées. Seules les facultés de droit et de médecine qui préparaient à une profession assuraient véritablement un enseignement supérieur, professionnel. Le titulaire d’une chaire à la faculté des lettres ou des sciences devait toutefois assurer quelques cours, mais ceux-ci n’étaient guère suivis que par un public extérieur, car ces enseignements n’étaient pas nécessaires à l’obtention d’une licence et la licence ne conduisait pas à une profession. Cette situation perdura jusqu’aux réformes universitaires de la IIIe République. La réforme de la licence, l’intérêt de son obtention pour l’exercice de la profession de professeur du secondaire, l’obligation faite aux candidats au concours de l’agrégation d’en être titulaire, le versement de bourses et l’intérêt croissant de l’économie et de l’industrie pour les études scientifiques allaient alors modifier profondément la situation. Les chaires avaient désormais des étudiants pour lesquels les professeurs devaient construire des cours et des examens spécifiques. La IIIe République en soutenant la construction de nouveaux établissements, dotés d’une bibliothèque et de laboratoires favorisait également les travaux de recherche des professeurs. Les chaires de géologie des facultés de province pouvaient pleinement contribuer au développement et à la diffusion de cette science, ce qu’elle avait déjà commencé à faire dès leur origine en participant notamment au projet de cartographie géologique de la France.
Case Note: A Friendly Preference? The Amicus Curiae Brief in the Nextera Case
Authors: Katona János
Published: December 2024

This paper examines the arguments put forth in an amicus curiae brief submitted in the US in NextEra Energy (Netherlands) v. Kingdom of Spain regarding the enforcement of an intra-EU ICSID arbitration award. The author argues that the brief promotes an uncompromising reading of ICSID members’ obligations that overlooks legitimate complexities at the intersection of investment law and EU law. In doing so, it encapsulates a view increasingly prevalent within the international arbitration community that privileges maintaining arbitration as the favoured mechanism for resolving investor-state disputes over reconciling potential tensions with regional economic frameworks like the EU legal order. However, a critical analysis finds the brief presents authorities selectively and minimizes complexities at the intersection of investment law and EU law.
The EU Model Clauses for Bilateral Investment Treaties of EU Member States With Third Countries
Authors: Mavromati Chrysoula , Schubert Alexander
Published: December 2024

Since the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty, the EU investment policy has sought to establish a coherent framework for investment protection in the EU. To that effect, the ‘Grandfathering Regulation’ establishes transitional arrangements for bilateral investment treaties (BITs) between Member States and third countries, including procedures and conditions under which Member States are empowered to conclude new or amend existing agreements with third countries. Consistency with the EU’s investment policy and EU law are essential criteria against which Member States BITs are assessed as part of the authorization process that is prescribed in the Grandfathering Regulation. With a view to increasing consistency in the negotiations and resulting agreements of Member States with third countries, the European Commission has developed ‘Model Clauses for negotiation or re-negotiation of Member States’ Bilateral Investment Agreements with third countries’ for use by Member States. These serve as a useful point of reference for the EU investment policy, not only for Member States, but also other interested stakeholders.
Result Validation through code Verification and Mesh Sensitivity Test
Authors: George Alabodite Meipre , Fawei Biralatei
Published: December 2024

An investigation on the validation of the results from George and Kay, (2017) and the reproduction of results from Srynarayana et al. (2008) was conducted with the aid of COMSOL MultiPhysics through Code Verification and Mesh Sensitivity Test for code validation and correctness of the results. Mesh dependence test was conducted to examined temperature distribution and velocity field at the point (0,2) at the core of the plume and plotted as a function of time for different mesh sizes. The results confirmed that both velocity field and temperature distribution at the specified point converged as mesh size decreases. For code verification the results showed that values from the individual terms in the continuity equation vary slightly with a maximum variation of ≈ ±0.010 when taken their sum. Interpolated values showed that the Y-Momentum equation were resolved properly and positive on both sides of the equation: though, with a maximum variation of ≈ ±0.003. Fluid flow in the upward direction is very key for a rising plume because water at the plume’s core at that point is expected to be undiluted and positively buoyant. Results from the X-Momentum equation showed both positive and negative values with a maximum variation of ≈ ±0.011. The values from the temperature equation showed both negative and positive values but approximately zero in all. In reproducing the results from Srinarayana et al. (2008) with COMSOL MultiPhysics. The overall behaviour showed that results appear similar. A flapping behaviour was also observed which seems to have occurred earlier within the simulation time. However, the Comsol Multiphysics used is reliable as this could reproduce results from other CFD code (Gerris) while the validated results from George and Kay, (2016) are also reliable and independent of mesh size ≤ 0.05.
Vietnamese Speech Recognition for Grid-Based Coordinate Systems with Adaptive Noise Filter
Authors: Bui Van Tien
Published: December 2024

This paper presents a novel speech recognition system specifically designed for processing structured numerical sequences in Vietnamese language within grid-based coordinate systems. The proposed system introduces three key innovations: a specialized recognition framework for grid-based coordinate structures, an adaptive noise filtering mechanism for robust performance in noisy environments, and optimized real-time processing capabilities. Using a 5x5 grid system as a demonstration platform, our implementation achieves 75.8% accuracy for complete coordinate sequences in office environments (SNR ≈ 25dB) and maintains usable accuracy of 70.5% in high-noise conditions (SNR ≈ 12dB), with average processing latency under 450ms. The system demonstrates practical viability for real-world applications requiring structured numerical sequence recognition in challenging acoustic environments.

Authors:   Badji Mokhtar University, Boumenkar Djihed , Benali Soumeya ,   Badji Mokhtar University, Belaid Mohamed ,   Abdelhafid Boussouf University Center of Mila
Published: December 2024

This study aimed at examining the impact of earnings management on market value under a dividend policy for a sample of institutions listed on the Saudi Stock Exchange and registered in TASI during the period (2010–2021). A descriptive analytical approach and a quantitative econometric analysis using One-Step System GMM Dynamic Panel Data Model were employed. The study reported that all the institutions performed a short-term earnings management oscillating up and down by different proportions during the study period, and that there is an impact of earnings management on value market in both the absence and presence of the dividend policy. The study therefore points to the need for investors education about accounting manipulation in general and earnings management in particular as the latter has an impact on the market value of institutional shares and accordingly on their investment decisions.

Authors:   Academy of Music, Dance and Fine Arts Prof. Asen Diamandiev - Plovdiv, Lardeva Galina
Published: December 2024

The article observes the changes in the notions of crisis and their reflection on the understanding of contemporary art. Modern culture seems to develop in conditions of well-being, which is able to dampen the sense of crisis in the very essence of art, but not to overcome the grounds of crisis experience. Today, various observers position art as post-aesthetic, post-historical, post-autonomous. Does the upheaval in the awareness of this „after“ art play an essential role in its definition? The report addresses and addresses the grounds of this question without providing answers.

The Prophet as Performer: An Analysis of Symbolic Acts in The Old Testament
Authors:   National University of Arts in Bucharest, Tanase Mihaela-Florina
Published: December 2024

The aim of this article is to investigate the potential relationships between the manifestations of Old Testament prophets and contemporary actionism, using the case study method, the hermeneutics of the artistic act and the performantive criticism method. The starting hypothesis is that the actions performed by biblical prophets can be described as performative acts, through the use of their own bodies, language, gestures, objects with symbolic functions, a specific scenography of the prophetic act, and even the ritualistic aspect of the manifestation, all intended to convey a supernatural message. The research results may indicate that by assigning a precise purpose to the action, using a well-defined scenography, and integrating gestures and language with symbolic-ritual characteristics, a correlation can be established between the biblical prophet and the actionist artist. The prophet could be attributed the qualities of a performer, and his manifestation could be defined as a performative act.

Published: December 2024

This paper explores the features of the popular open-source library from the .NET ecosystem MediatR, which implements the behavioral software design pattern Mediator to achieve loose coupling and better communication between the components of developed applications. It introduces an ‘in-process’ mediator, which aids in building systems, based on the Command and Query Responsibility Segregation software design pattern (CQRS). The MediatR library offers the ability to handle both synchronous and asynchronous requests, responses, commands, notifications, and events. It provides a straightforward approach for managing command and request handlers, simplifying the adoption of CQRS. Using the MediatR library improves the modularity and testability of .NET applications by promoting adherence to SOLID principles in the code structure. This facilitates complex interactions between different parts of applications, the integration of new functionalities and the maintenance of existing ones.

To Buy Social Tourism
Authors:   St. Cyril and St. Methodius University of Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria, Statev Ventsislav
Published: December 2024

The tourism business makes a significant effort to “sell more happiness” at a “higher price”. It succeeds, but nevertheless a certain group of tourists feel nostalgic for the authentic “social” experience from the “good old days” of a centrally planned economy in Bulgaria, and this is realized as a market niche in tourism. Different solutions are being sought, how both to profit from the “social” and to preserve its authenticity, and to have a modern touch. Happiness is given, it is not bought or sold, it is the result of the social health of a society, which, depending on how “steeped in the pursuit of profit”, makes people more or less satisfied with life. Two good practices in this segment in Bulgaria are considered.

Published: December 2024

The concept of multimodal transport has recently attracted much interest. It is user-oriented, i.e. the passenger planning his trip. To properly plan and prepare a mobility offer, it is necessary to know the mobile behaviour of travellers or their changes. Both the travel history and communication preferences of passengers can contribute to the design of a mobility distribution model in which various modes of transport offered by different operators are integrated into one service provided within one digital platform. The study aims to present the concept of multimodal travel and show the added value for the traveller: the synergy of combining ticket purchase and payment channels and a wide range of transport options. The authors highlight two key public transport data exchange standards: Open Journey Planner (OJP) and General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS). Their goal is to improve the quality of public transport services and provide travellers with better access to information. The article was developed as part of the Network Management Planning and Control & Mobility Management in a Multimodal Environment and Digital Enablers project – an acronym of the MOTIONAL project – implemented by the Research and Development Ecosystem created at PKP S.A. The article's content is part of the WP20 work package Development: Integration of Railways with other means of transport. In particular, it refers to Task 20.1, Improving railway integration using B2B intermodal services, which includes Subtask 20.1.1, Providing MaaS platforms for B2B intermodal services.

O presente artigo tem como objetivo descrever sobre o processo de inclução escolar das crianças com necessidades especiais no ensino regular. Este texto está baseado em um levantamento de lesgislações que garantem os direitos desse público alvo, e tem como objetivo mostrar a complexidade, a realidade docente e suas práticas pedagógicas na sala de aula com crianças especiais. A educação inclusiva é um modelo educacional que busca garantir o acesso e a participação de todos os estudantes, independentemente de suas características físicas, intelectuais, sociais, emocionais ou culturais. Para isso, são adotadas práticas educacionais que valorizam a diversidade e promovem a igualdade de oportunidades na aprendizagem. Essas  praticas pedagogicas são indispensável para englobar esses alunos, como garante a legislação, e assim cooperar para um aprendizado menos excludente e menos preconceituosa no dia a dia, no que se trata a Educação Inclusiva. Assim procura-se apresentar alguns problemas, dificuldades e impasses que estão presentes no dia-a-dia dos educadores, especialistas, gestores e outros profissionais que estão relacionados ao tema. O estudo parte da idealização de educação para todos, inclusive pessoas com deficiência (PcD), porem o quadro historicamente construído mostra-se contraditório essa veemência na educação, sendo assim é fundamental um compromisso real dos docentes com a educação especial na busca de acolher, incluir e ter uma prática pedagógica inclusiva, com isso, partindo do pressuposto de buscar, conhecer,  minimizar dúvidas com a necessidade de compreender e construir novos saberes sobre a educação inclusiva de modo a solucionar problemas. Fazendo-o  com que a busca de conhecimentos  seja um dispositivo primordial  para uma prática educativa transformadora.
Innovative clinical trials: Addressing the evolving needs of clinical research and participants with decentralised and complex trials
Authors: Vanli Jaccard Güliz
Published: December 2024

In general, innovation in clinical research often stems not only from aspiration – for example to increase accuracy and efficiency or to optimise costs – but also from shifts in social paradigms or from changes in circumstances that lead to changes in practices, as experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic. Indeed, the challenges clinical research faced during the pandemic led to changes in how clinical trials are conducted. Healthcare personnel had to come up with nontraditional ways to connect with their patients and patients’ families. Researchers had to develop new approaches since it was no longer possible to follow many everyday practices and because they had to answer even more complex questions – often with fewer resources. These challenges accelerated innovation in clinical research, particularly in the area of trial design. This article takes a deep dive into how design innovation has transformed clinical research by providing new operational approaches, such as those applied in decentralised clinical trials (PART 1), and new methodologies, such as those used in complex trials (PART 2).

Authors: Wajim John  , Shimfe Grace Harry
Published: December 2024

This study examines the impact of recycling on public health in Southern Taraba, revealing that most respondents acknowledge the health implications of recycling. Using a cross-sectional survey design and the Health Belief Model as the theoretical framework, 1,200 respondents were sampled through Taro Yamane's formula. Data were collected using quantitative questionnaires. Findings indicate that proximity to recycling bins significantly enhances household recycling behaviors. Despite challenges such as inadequate waste management infrastructure and public awareness, recycling serves as a vital livelihood for scavengers and merchants. The research highlights recycling as a cost-effective and environmentally friendly waste disposal method that reduces air and water pollution and minimizes waste toxicity in landfills. It is recommended that establishing a robust recycling system could improve environmental health and resource allocation, promoting community well-being and sustainable waste management practices in the region.
Drought Index Assessment Using Thermal Vegetation Index (TVI) Method and Soil Physic Approaches (A Case study: Manyaran District, Central Java, Indonesia)
Authors: Mujiyo Mujiyo , Dita Putri Mitayani  , Dwi Priyo Ariyanto  , Sumani
Published: December 2024

The early detection of areas that have the potential to experience drought is necessary to minimize the hazards of land drought. The study aimed to identify the current conditions of drought by TVI with actual soil physic characteristic approaches, and to find the determinant factors related to the dynamics of agricultural land drought conditions so as to determine land management strategies that are considered appropriate and efficient to prevent agricultural land drought. The method for analyzing the drought index was the Thermal Vegetation Index (TVI) method, which involved the calculation of the ratio between the Land Surface Temperature (LST) and the vegetation index using Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). The method in this research was modified by adding soil physical indicators, including soil moisture content, bulk density, and pF value. The results showed that the land drought classes were normal drought (46.89% study area), mild drought (20.62% study area), moderate drought (14.10% study area), severe drought  (8.58% study area), and extreme drought (9.81% study area). Land drought was highly correlated to the soil's physical condition, negatively correlated with the moisture content (r -0.403) and bulk density (r -0.317), and positively correlated with the pF (r 0.429). Enhancing the soil’s capacity to absorb water and retain moisture through the addition of organic matter is one of the required techniques as a suitable recommendation to the issue after determining the determinant factors and present conditions.
Improvement of the Electrical Properties of ZnO Nanomaterials with Fe by Co-precipitation Method
Authors: Kingpho Pitchaporn , Toboonsung Buppachat
Published: December 2024

Fe-doped ZnO nanomaterials were prepared by the co-precipitation method. The experiments used a solution of 0.5 M for ZnCl2, doped with FeSO4 in proportions of 0-100 wt.%, followed by the addition of 1 M for NaOH solution until a pH of 12 was reached. Next, the precipitated substances were calcinated at 550ºC for 3 h in air. SEM image analysis showed that the nanoparticles formed in the condition of pure ZnO and Fe2O3 whereas rod-shaped formed with Fe doping. Nanoparticles of ZnO transformed into nanorods when doped with Fe. EDS analysis detected Fe under the conditions of 3 and 5 wt.% doping. XRD patterns of ZnO and all doping of Fe in ZnO nanostructures were corresponded to a hexagonal wurtzite structure of ZnO which showed crystallite size in the range of 25-29 nm. The electrical properties of Fe-doped ZnO nanostructures were identified by the spectroscope measurements of fluorescence and ultraviolet-visible absorption, and the electrical conductivity was calculated. It was found that Fe doping at 3 wt.% produced the lowest energy band gap (based on spectroscopy results) and this condition was associated with the highest electrical conductivity of 0.21 x 10-3 (Ω.cm)-1 which was calculated from the measurement of electrical resistance by two probes. Therefore, Fe doping can improve the electrical properties of ZnO nanostructures.

Grain Production is the most significant field.Many Nations have taken steps to restrict the grain exports as COVID-19
expanded all over the world.one of the major concern affecting economies today is how to increase grain output.Crop
diseases are a challenging issue for farmers,though,it’s crucial to understand their severity as soon as possible in order to
assist staff in taking additional steps to prevent further plant infection. A Restructured residual dense network was proposed
for tomato leaf disease identification;this hybrid deep learning model combines deep residual networks and dense
networks,which improves the flow of information and gradients while reducing the number of training process parameters
to increase computation accuracy.On the Tomato test dataset,experimental findings demonstrate that this model can reach
top-1 average identification accuracy of 95%,the RDN model may outperform the majority of state-of-the-art model by
considerable margin using less computing power to attain superior results.
Keywords: Residual Dense Network, Flow of gradients, Deep Learning, State-of-the-art-model.
