Integrated Use of Local and Technical Soil Quality Indicators and Participatory Techniques to Select Them. A Review of Bibliography and Analysis of Research Strategies and Outcomes
Authors: Braidotti Greta , De Nobili Maria , Piani Lucia
Published: December 2020

Climate change has strong impacts on soil conservation and agricultural productivity, with severe consequences on smallholders in developing countries, but virtually no research has been carried out so far on this issue. Therefore, it is necessary to foster the implementation of participatory projects to help communities deal with new difficulties. Sustainable soil management can reduce and even reverse land degradation, helping farmers to adapt to climate change effects. Progress toward sustainability cannot be implemented in small rural communities regardless of local knowledge, which can be addressed using participatory techniques. To this purpose the choice and use of indicators is essential to carry out correct assessments of soil vulnerability integrating local and technical knowledge. The purpose of this review was to study how the problem of building a set of integrated indicators to assess soil quality has been addressed so far and which participatory techniques have been more successfully employed, analyzing studies carried out in rural communities of developing countries. We found out that there is a lack of participated studies dealing with environmental issues. Those that do so address them only indirectly, being centered on present agricultural problems. The studies rarely feature a collaboration with social science experts, consequently the use of participatory techniques lacks protocols and a standardized nomenclature to help in the transfer and generalization of experiences. Women are rarely involved and nearly exclusively in African countries: this could be related to social and cultural conditions, but needs more attention. Different aspects need to be improved to help the implementation of a successful approach in future projects. This review provides a tool to facilitate future interdisciplinary research on integration of local and scientific knowledge and will help to devise more successful strategies to tackle the challenges posed by climate change to smallholders in developing countries.
S-Matrix and Anomaly of de Sitter
Authors: Dvali Gia
Published: December 2020

S-matrix formulation of gravity excludes de Sitter vacua. In particular, this is organic to string theory. The S-matrix constraint is enforced by an anomalous quantum break-time proportional to the inverse values of gravitational and/or string couplings. Due to this, de Sitter can satisfy the conditions for a valid vacuum only at the expense of trivializing the graviton and closed-string S-matrices. At non-zero gravitational and string couplings, de Sitter is deformed by corpuscular 1/N effects, similarly to Witten–Veneziano mechanism in QCD with N colors. In this picture, an S-matrix formulation of Einstein gravity, such as string theory, nullifies an outstanding cosmological puzzle. We discuss possible observational signatures which are especially interesting in theories with a large number of particle species. Species can enhance the primordial quantum imprints to potentially observable level even if the standard inflaton fluctuations are negligible.
Photon Spheres, ISCOs, and OSCOs: Astrophysical Observables for Regular Black Holes with Asymptotically Minkowski Cores
Authors: Berry Thomas , Simpson Alex , Visser Matt
Published: December 2020

Classical black holes contain a singularity at their core. This has prompted various researchers to propose a multitude of modified spacetimes that mimic the physically observable characteristics of classical black holes as best as possible, but that crucially do not contain singularities at their cores. Due to recent advances in near-horizon astronomy, the ability to observationally distinguish between a classical black hole and a potential black hole mimicker is becoming increasingly feasible. Herein, we calculate some physically observable quantities for a recently proposed regular black hole with an asymptotically Minkowski core—the radius of the photon sphere and the extremal stable timelike circular orbit (ESCO). The manner in which the photon sphere and ESCO relate to the presence (or absence) of horizons is much more complex than for the Schwarzschild black hole. We find situations in which photon spheres can approach arbitrarily close to (near extremal) horizons, situations in which some photon spheres become stable, and situations in which the locations of both photon spheres and ESCOs become multi-valued, with both ISCOs (innermost stable circular orbits) and OSCOs (outermost stable circular orbits). This provides an extremely rich phenomenology of potential astrophysical interest.

INTERIOR DESIGN AND ARCHITECTURE THROUGH THE PRISM OF TIME: FROM CONFLICT TO COOPERATION
Authors: Naydenova I.
Published: December 2020

As a research area, interior design took shape in the 20s of the last century, despite the fact that the practice of decorating living spaces dates back many hundreds of years. However, the "self-sufficiency" of design and its connection with architecture to this day is the subject of scientific discussions of urban specialists, historians, art historians, and anthropologists. The article discusses the leading artistic styles and trends that prevailed in architecture and design from the point of view of their mutual influence on each other. Time frame of the research: from the middle of XIX century to the first half of XX century.

As a result of the research of foreign experience in the formation of interior design, the main stages of the movement development and its relationship with architecture in two formations were identified: activities directly dependent on architectural decisions, activities that determine the entire design process to a large extent: from the functional zoning of the premises to the features of the placement of utilities in the building.

Entering the information era in art as a whole is characterized by the rejection of slogans that clearly delineate stylistic boundaries and determine the role of a designer in creating the living space. The determining factor influencing the integrity of the building’s appearance in a modern view is the harmony of the facade and the internal content, which was made possible thanks to the equal interaction of the architect and designer, starting from the first half of the 20th century.
PRINCIPLES OF FORMING OBJECTS OF ETHNOGRAPHIC TOURISM WITH REGIONAL FEATURES ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE BELGOROD REGION
Authors: Ladik Elena , Makridina A.
Published: December 2020

The problems of planning the organization of territories and objects of ethnographic tourism, taking into account the landscape features of the regions of the Russian Federation, in particular the Belgorod region, are relevant. The study developed regional principles for planning ethno-tourist spaces on the example of the Belgorod region. The object of research is the territories favorable for the development of ethnographic tourism objects within the Belgorod region, the subject of research is the influence of regional historical and cultural features on the formation of ethnographic tourism territories.

As a result of the study, based on the analysis of world and national experience in the design of ethnographic tourism objects, their typological and historical-cultural analysis, the principles of organizing ethnographic tourism objects were developed. These principles take into account such regional features of the cultural landscapes of the Belgorod region, as the principle of preservation of the cultural landscape, the principle of authenticity of the recreated environment, the principle of symbolic exposure, the principle of stylistic unity and the multi-level principle. The use of the developed principles will allow us to preserve the identity and originality of the environment, reduce anthropogenic pressures on valuable landscape areas, increase information content and determine the gradual immersion in the concept of a tourist site.
AESTHETICS OF NORTH CITY
Authors: Myasnikova I. , Prokopova S.
Published: December 2020

During the historical period of industrial development of North, the question of a necessity of city construction in the North is relevant. On the one hand, cities allow formation the sociocultural infrastructure, providing comfortable accommodation as well as formation the conditions for the stable development of the region (vs. the shift-expeditionary method). However, the north climate conditions require a higher attention to environmental design and urban planning, due to extreme climatic factors. Disregard to this specific leads to a deterioration in the life-quality of the citizens. The combination of each other conflicting the North climate conditions and the "southern" approaches to the formation of the urban environment still remains an unresolved problem.

It is known that the subject-spatial environment directly effects on the feelings and emotions of citizens. So, aesthetics is a sensory knowledge can become a good tool for comfortable coexistence of man and the North through the city environment.
From Infancy to Fancy: A Glimpse into the Evolutionary Journey of Podocytes in Culture
Authors: Agarwal Shivangi , Sudhini Yashwanth R. , Reiser Jochen , Altintas Mehmet M.
Published: December 2020

Podocytes are critical components of the filtration barrier and responsible for maintaining healthy kidney function. An assault on podocytes is generally associated with progression of chronic glomerular diseases. Therefore, podocyte pathophysiology is a favorite research subject for nephrologists. Despite this, podocyte research has lagged because of the unavailability of techniques for culturing such specialized cells ex vivo in quantities that are adequate for mechanistic studies. In recent years, this problem was circumvented by the efforts of researchers, who successfully developed several in vitro podocyte cell culture model systems that paved the way for incredible discoveries in the field of nephrology. This review sets us on a journey that provides a comprehensive insight into the groundbreaking breakthroughs and novel technologic advances made in the field of podocyte cell culture so far, beginning from its inception, evolution, and progression. In this study, we also describe in detail the pros and cons of different models that are being used to culture podocytes. Our extensive and exhaustive deliberation on the status of podocyte cell culture will facilitate researchers to choose wisely an appropriate model for their own research to avoid potential pitfalls in the future.
Testigos de la profanación. Conversos españoles ante la destrucción de cementerios judíos tras la Expulsión de 1492
Authors: Caselli Elisa
Published: December 2020

Las conversiones de judíos producidas en ocasión de promulgarse el edicto de expulsión de 1492 fueron radicalmente distintas a las anteriores: se trataba de un escenario donde ya no habría ex-correligionarios ni sinagogas, tampoco ningún símbolo que tuviera que ver con su anterior religión. La historiografía ha debatido largamente respecto de la situación de los judeoconversos, con posturas que en sus extremos defienden la asimilación completa o bien una resistencia absoluta a la integración. Sin embargo, escasa atención se ha prestado a la incidencia que en dicho proceso pudo alcanzar la destrucción de su entorno material y simbólico, portador de una singular carga afectiva. Únicamente esa generación fue testigo de la eliminación de los que habían sido sus lugares sagrados. Con el afán de borrar todo rastro del judaísmo, no solo se hicieron desaparecer las sinagogas, sino también los cementerios. En el presente trabajo se describen y analizan la sistemática profanación y destrucción de sepulturas, con el fin de interrogarse hasta qué punto tales hechos pudieron incidir en el proceso de (re)integración de los judeoconversos castellanos.
El formato organizacional del Plan FinEs en la provincia de La Pampa: entre lo nuevo y lo viejo
Authors: Correa Mariana
Published: December 2020

Este artículo presenta algunos análisis realizados en el marco de un estudio de corte cualitativo, denominado “Las experiencias educativas de estudiantes egresados del Plan de Finalización de Estudios Primarios y Secundarios en instituciones de General Pico y Eduardo Castex (La Pampa). La investigación propone un abordaje inicial de la primera etapa del Plan FinEs (2008-2011) en esta provincia. Aquí se presentan conclusiones vinculadas al análisis de su formato organizacional, con énfasis en tres aspectos: la organización del tiempo, los espacios y los recursos disponibles. Se advierte que, si bien en los documentos ministeriales el FinEs se presenta como una “agenda didáctica flexible”, adaptada a las necesidades de jóvenes y adultos, su materialización en las sedes replica rasgos propios del formato tradicional de la escuela secundaria, con pocas variantes.
Hacia una genealogía de la experiencia: La gestión escolar en una escuela de creación (2009-2015)
Authors: Nacach Gabriela
Published: December 2020

El triunfo de la escuela no es sino el triunfo de una conciencia ética autónoma. El límite anida en nuestra propia experiencia. Este trabajo surge de una praxis educativa en una escuela secundaria de la CABA entre 2009 y 2015. Objetivar la escuela y reflexionar sobre ella nos ayuda a entenderla como un espacio donde se despliegan multiplicidad de dimensiones que desafían la práctica cotidiana y nuestra subjetividad docente. Subyace en este escrito la pregunta por el conocimiento, por lo que se aprende en la escuela, por las otras formas de aprender, por los modos de enseñanza, por la relación siempre conflictiva entre “lo establecido” en la dinámica escolar (las normas, los espacios, los mecanismos burocráticos, los rituales escolares) y la novedad, por el rol –político– que asumimos cotidianamente los y las educadoras, por la gestión institucional. Me interrogo, también, por la autoridad, la autonomía y la transgresión y las formas de validar o contrastar las verdades educativas, por la construcción cultural e histórica de los actores que transitan la escuela y su importancia real dentro del proceso escolar. Intento finalmente posicionarme críticamente frente al propio desempeño, presentándome pero también re-presentándome, desnaturalizando mis propios supuestos y optando, nuevamente, por la educación pública.

COVID-19 disease is associated with a high inflammatory load that can induce vascular inflammation, myocarditis, and cardiac arrhythmias. Mortality from COVID-19 disease in 2019 is strongly associated with cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and hypertension. These disorders share the underlying pathophysiology related to the renin-angiotensin system (SARS). Cardiovascular disease and SARS pharmacological inhibition increase ACE2 levels, which can increase coronavirus virulence in the lung and heart. On the other hand, there is evidence that coronavirus infection can decrease ACE2, leading to toxic over-accumulation of angiotensin II, which induces acute respiratory distress syndrome and fulminant myocarditis. In addition, there is scientific evidence that SARS-CoV-2 can bind chemically to the heme group of hemoglobin and thus cause the release of iron ions (Fe2+ and Fe3+) that can damage tissues, including the lungs and heart. Another important information is that the heme group is produced by mitochondria and, in this case, the oral or intramuscular use of Coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) is strongly recommended, as it stimulates the increase in mitochondrial production. Therefore, the use of chelators of iron ions is notorious, as well as the administration of Coenzyme Q10 as a treatment for patients infected with SARS-CoV-2.

Objective: To report a case of vertical herpetic meningoencephalitis. Results: The involvement of the central nervous system (CNS) in infection by HSV (herpes simplex virus), HSV-1 or HSV-2, causes an acute inflammatory process in the brain parenchyma, leading to herpetic encephalitis. It is a feared form of the disease due to its severity and its high rate of morbidity and mortality. Its rapid fatal progression can be prevented from early suspicion and treatment, which is essential when taking into account their neurological sequelae since survivors have motor sequelae, behavioral disorders, or epilepsy. The present work reports the case of a newborn male with spontaneous vaginal delivery who, at 19 days of age, started to experience fever, irritability, difficulty in eating, spasms, tremors of the upper limbs, deviation of the eyes, and seizures of difficult to control, together with CFE and serological changes, in addition to imaging tests compatible with herpetic meningoencephalitis, progressing with a very serious evolution despite the institution of specific treatment for CNS herpetic infection, evolving with important neurological sequelae. Conclusion: The sequels resulting from herpetic encephalitis not properly diagnosed, or even late, leads from severe neurological damage to death. Therefore, it is extremely important to start empirical treatment with antiviral drugs to reduce the sequelae mentioned above.
Selenyum ve Zeolitin Nil Tilapyası Oreochromis niloticus’ta (Linnaeus, 1758) Doku Cıva Birikimi Üzerine Etkileri

Published: December 2020

Cıvanın balıkları da içeren sucul organizmalar için tehlikeli bir çevresel kirletici olduğu iyi bilinmektedir. Cıvanın balıklardaki birikimi ve toksik etkileri hem bu organizmaları hem de besin zinciri aracılığıyla diğer canlıların sağlığını olumsuz etkileyeceğinden bu metalin toksik etkilerini azaltacak/önleyecek mekanizmalar ekosistemin sağlıklı işleyişi ve geleceği açısından oldukça önemlidir. Bu nedenle sunulan çalışmada Oreochromis niloticus’un dokularındaki cıva birikimi üzerine selenyum ve zeolitin olası koruyucu etkileri araştırılmıştır. Bu amaçla balıklar 0,01 ve 0,1 mg/L cıva; 0,01 mg/L cıva+0,1 mg/L selenyum, 0,1 mg/L cıva+1,0 mg/L selenyum ve 0,01 mg/L cıva+0,1 g/L zeolit, 0,1 mg/L cıva+1,0 g/L zeolit derişimlerinin etkisine 7 ve 21 gün süreler ile bırakılmış ve solungaç, karaciğer ve kas dokularındaki cıva birikimi belirlenmiştir. İncelenen tüm dokulardaki cıva birikiminin denenen tüm kimyasal gruplarında ortam derişimlerine ve etki sürelerine bağlı olarak arttığı saptanmıştır (P<0,05). Dokulardaki cıva birikiminin cıva+selenyum ve cıva+zeolit karışımlarında cıvanın tek başına etkisine oranla önemli bir şekilde azaldığı belirlemiştir (P<0,05). Araştırmamız selenyum ve zeolitin O. niloticus’un dokularında cıva birikimini önemli düzeylerde azalttığını göstermiştir.
Aceites esenciales para el control de Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) y efecto sobre la calidad del grano de maíz Zea mays Linnaeus (Poales: Poaceae)

Published: December 2020

In order to find natural alternatives for the control of the weevil Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky, the effect of niaouli (Melaleuca quinquenervia), eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus) and oregano (Origanum vulgare) essential oils were studied on mortality, emergence and epellency of S. zeamais, as well as their effect on the grain quality of corn during storage (germination, amount of phenols, flavonoids and antioxidant capacity). The technique used for the bioassays was saturation of atmospheres, in volumes of 100, 200 and 300 µL, having national white corn as substrate. The three oils showed 100% insecticidal activity at 72 hrs. The emergence of adult insects (F) was null in all treatments. Repellency was observed in all treatments at 24, 48 and 72 hrs. Germination was not affected in volumes of 100 µL. The content of total phenols and flavonoids were higher both in the oregano oil (94.68 mg GAE/g and 0.27 mg QE/g respectively) and in the corn treatment with oregano (16.09 mg GAE/g and 0.18 mg QE/g respectively). Similar behavior was observed in the antioxidant capacity in both DPPH and ABTS, presenting ranges from 76.31 to 93.73% inhibition. It is concluded that the three essential oils have potential for the control of S. zeamais, improving the quality of the corn grain.

Published: December 2020

In Mexico, 99 tick species have been registered and 26 species of Amblyomma genus are known; the Hidalgo state does not have updated catalogs of Amblyomma spp. Between October 2019 and March 2020, were samples of ticks done in the Otomi-Tepehua Region directly from cattle, horses, dogs, cats, humans, leaf litter, weeds, resting places of animals and animal corpses. In the municipalities of Huehuetla, Tenango de Doria and San Bartolo Tutotepec were gathered 735 samples from warm weather rangelands; 494 of the no engorged ticks were randomly selected and taxonomically recognized as A. mixtum Koch, 1844 (Acari: Ixodidae). The ticks were caught from domestic hosts (n = 177), horses (n = 172), animals resting places (n = 51), humans (n = 34), animal corpses (n = 31) and cattle (n = 29). The locality that yielded the highest number of ectoparasites was Río Blanco (16.5%), followed by San Antonio (12.7%), El Canjoy (11.1%), San Isidro (9.5%) and La Esperanza Uno (8.9%); the highest infestation rates found were in horses (34.8%) and canines (32.9%), with all other host types under 10%. 13 ixodides A. mixtum were identified from humans that presented a clinical profile of fever (≥ 102.2 °F), severe muscle pain, lethargy, headache, papules and scoriations at the point of the tick bite. The tick A. mixtum is present in peridomestic environments of the Otomi Tepehua Region, where animal horses and canines serve as the principal disseminators from the rangelands to the rural housing.

¿Realmente el sistema de apoyos y salvaguardias implementado en el Código Civil cumple con su función de apoyar a las personas con discapacidad?
Authors: Duran Vivanco José William
Published: December 2020

En el presente artículo expresamos nuestro acuerdo con que la legislación, en búsqueda de reconocer la capacidad jurídica de las personas con discapacidad, recoja el modelo social contemplado en la Convención Internacional sobre los Derechos de las Personas con Discapacidad, ya que contribuye a que dichas personas puedan ejercer sus derechos de manera libre y voluntaria, con la cooperación de los apoyos. Sin embargo, los objetivos y principios establecidos en la convención no han sido establecidos adecuadamente ennuestra legislación, por lo que se han adoptado medidas legislativas sin antes contemplar nuestra realidad. Se reconoce, por ejemplo, a los sujetos con discapacidad que carecen de discernimiento y, por lo tanto, se les permite tomar decisiones, pero resulta ilógico que estas personas puedan decidir por sí mismas cuando no tienen noción de la realidad, situación que propicia una serie de abusos de los derechos de estas personas.

Design and Implementation of Blockchain Based Single Sign-On Authentication System for Web Applications
Authors: TANRIVERDİ Mustafa
Published: December 2020

Today, many services are provided through web applications and the number of these applications is increasing rapidly. Nowadays, most users use their username and password to login to web applications. Many of these users also use the same login information in different applications. This causes a major security vulnerability for applications and users. As a solution to these weaknesses in the field of authentication, there have been many developments in recent years. Some of these studies have been third party identity authentication systems like Google and Facebook. Since this method also contains potential risks, studies have been conducted on the Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) method for more security. In parallel with the innovations that emerge every day, methods should be used in the field of authentication. In these times, blockchain technology offers solutions that make life easier in many areas thanks to its distributed, transparent, secure and immutable structure.

Saizarbitoriaren Martutene (2012) eleberriko Julia protagonistaren bitartekaritza-rola dugu aztergai. Itzultzailea da, eta Martin bikotekide idazleari eta haren testuari leial izan beharrez sortzen zaizkion kezkei eta nekeei erreparatuko diegu. Zubi-lan horrekin bat interpretatuko dugu Juliak familian egiten duen bitartekaritza: memorien transmisioari buruz gogoetatzen du, semea bitarteko. Kasu horretan ere, iraganarekiko leialtasuna eta horrek ondorengoei eragin diezaiekeen zama izango ditu Juliak gogoetagai. Ondorioztatuko dugu bitartekari leialaren irudia problematizatuaz, ezabatzeak eta birkokatzeak proposatzen dituela ama itzultzaileak transmisio-bide gisa, ikuspegi kritiko batetik.
Los nombres de Vasconia y de las provincias vascas
Authors: Zabaltza Perez-Nievas Xabier
Published: December 2020

En este artículo se analizan los nombres de Vasconia y sus siete provincias, una labor compleja debido a la ausencia de una entidad política duradera que las abarcara a todas. Usando una metodología más histórica que filológica, se explican brevemente su origen y la evolución de su significado a lo largo de los tiempos y se da para cada una de ellas una etimología verosímil y otras, que sin serlo, han conocido cierto éxito. Más allá de las formas oficiales, se recogen sus denominaciones comunes en seis idiomas. El objetivo final ha sido intentar acabar con vacilaciones en una cuestión que, por sus implicaciones, supera los planos meramente lingüístico e histórico y preparar el camino para un Diccionario de los nombres de los pueblos de Vasconia.

Published: December 2020

Seismicity in the area of the Semipalatinsk Test Site near the sites of previously conducted nu-clear tests, as well as on the territory of operating quarries in the STS area was investigated. To study man-made events at the test site, the data of field seismic observations for 2005-2010, and 2018-2020 was used. In addition, data from the Kurchatov-Cross permanent seismic array, the Kurchatov IRIS IDA three-component station, and the Kurchatov infrasound station were used. It is shown that during the period of UNE conduction on the territory of the Semipalatinsk Test Site, as well as in recent years in the area of nuclear explosions, induced earthquakes with low-energy were observed. In the area of mineral mines, where intensive blasts are carried out, technogene-ous earthquakes induced by the prolonged impact of industrial explosions have been recorded.
Seismic monitoring of explosions in the Central site of the Kumtor deposit, Tien Shan

Published: December 2020

Seismic monitoring of explosions was carried out at the local area of the Central site of the Kumtor deposit for January 2017 - January 2018. Velocities of seismic longitudinal and transverse waves, their ratios (VP, VS, VP/VS), maximum amplitudes and their ratios (AP, AS, AS/AP) were studied, and average values with standard deviation values were determined, and hierarchies of cycles are distinguished in their variations in time. It is noted that the ratios of VP, VS, VP/VS reflect the state of the crust medium, small values of VP, VS, VP/VS express possible manifestation of fluids, and large value of the ratio VP/VS – possible manifestation of partial melting, large values of VP, VS – possible manifestation of relatively high pressures. Physical parameters of the medium are estimated: seismic parameter Φ, Poisson's ratio, shear modulus, and bulk modulus. It is established that these physical parameters are dynamic parameters that depend on the frequency of geodynamic processes, namely, in cycles, for example, of the third order with a relatively high frequency, relatively small values of modules (physical parameters of the medium) are observed, and in cycles of the second and first orders with a relatively low frequency, relatively large values of modules are observed. Changes in the values of AP, AS, AS/AP, and the degree of seismic waves’ absorption are predetermined by physical parameters and the state of the medium. Change in the penetration depth of seismic waves from an explosion is noted in the range of about 8-35 km

Considering the increasing demand for microlearning in informal learning spaces, the main purpose of this research is to examine the design of microlearning perceived by adult learners and experts in Korea. The research questions include: (1) what modality and content length do adult learners perceive to be relevant for microlearning? (2) what content areas do adult learners perceive to be relevant for microlearning? and (3) what are the expected impacts and future directions of microlearning perceived by the experts? The participants include 11 e-learning experts and 326 adult learners working in the fields of science and technology. Data were collected from the learner survey, focus group interview, and expert survey. Overall, this study found that adult learners tend to have some conflicting opinions about the content areas perceived to be relevant for e-learning and microlearning. The design of content that takes the modality of video consumed within 3-5 minutes was considered to be the most relevant for microlearning. Experts perceived that microlearning is an efficient and effective direction for adult learners to enhance professional knowledge and to broaden informal learning opportunities. However, the experts were less positive about the potential of microlearning for increasing convergence research and learning transfer. There was a considerable gap between desirability and feasibility in the directions toward integrating microlearning with advanced technologies. Based on the key findings, we discuss some implications concerning the design of microlearning for adult learners’ informal learning. Cite as So, H-J., Lee, H., Roh, S-Z.

Towards Digital Multigrade One-room Schoolhouses for Underprivileged Communities in Rural Pakistan
Authors: Badar Faisal , Mason Jon
Published: December 2020

Context matters in the design and development of educational opportunities. Despite extensive global efforts to make education accessible for all, one out of every five children are outof-school. The situation demands re-thinking of learning strategies, particularly in underprivileged contexts. Continued advancements in learning technologies may offer novel solutions. The one-room schoolhouse is a centuries-old proven educational system, which has yielded promising results for rural areas. Using a multigrade teaching method, the one-room schoolhouse provides a resilient model for educating children where school administration faces typical issues of remote and rural areas such as lack of quality teachers, fewer children in each level, low socio-economic status of parents, lack of rooms in a school building, etc. This paper reports a case study of an integrated approach to teaching out-of-school children in rural Pakistan using education technology in a one-room schoolhouse environment using a multigrade teaching method. The paper (1) synthesizes the knowledge of practice and research on one-room schoolhouses, multigrade teaching, and education technology developments; (2) reports the on-ground practices of multigrade one-room schoolhouses in a real-life scenario in rural Pakistan and integrating digital capabilities into these schoolhouses; and (3) proposes the ways to implement and scale this method to educate out-of-school children in other underprivileged communities.

Better Park Design Contributes to Physical Activity Improvement
Authors: Arifwidodo Sigit , Chandrasiri Orana
Published: December 2020

Objective - Empirical evidence has identified that parks hold an essential role in promoting physical activity. Parks facilitate opportunities to be physically active for a wide range of users. The paper explores the effects of design intervention of Benjakitti Park, a public park in Bangkok, Thailand.
Methodology/Technique – The system for Observing Play and Recreation in Communities (SOPARC) method was utilized before and after design intervention to understand whether the design intervention improved the park users' physical activity level. A survey questionnaire of park visitors was used to understand whether they had become more active during a park visit.
Finding –It was found that the design intervention changed the characteristics of park users and their activity patterns. More children and older adults' visitors were observed in the post-design intervention. An ordinary least square model of the survey questionnaire result showed that one-time park visitation was associated with an increase of five minutes of moderate and vigorous physical activity per week. The study showed that even a small design intervention could change people's behavior towards a healthier and more active lifestyle.
