Building an Installation Artwork: Casting Light to Transform the Shapes of Printed Silk Screen to Be Part of the Space
Authors: Maha Kazzaz  , Ehssan Sattouf
Published: June 2022

Printmaking often includes a two-dimensional frame whether it was printed out on paper or canvas. In the time when most artist strive to create new forms of art whether it was in sculpting, drawing, painting so on and so forth, printmaking is still considered a traditional form of art limited to its frame. In an attempt to make a quantum leap in the concept of artistic works’ dimensions this research aimed to investigate a method which aids extracting the work of art from its limited frame. where lighting helps to free the shapes of the artwork and make them part of the surrounding atmosphere, a part of space. This was achieved by three artworks which were printed on plates of hardened glass; thus, each artwork is a set of layers that when merged together would create the final form of the artwork. Also, a paper copy of each artwork was made. Light was added to these artworks allowing the receivers to walk through the artwork instead of rotating around it, thus, participating into the artwork itself.

Published: June 2022

With the increasing development of inbound and outbound tourism in China, a greater number of English-speaking tourism professionals are needed. To meet the needs, Tourism English programs were provided in universities and colleges in the country. However, problems occurred with the in-service professional development of Tourism English teachers, who were originally trained as language teachers. Existing training programs could not meet their professional needs. The present study aimed at exploring the effectiveness of the workshop based-on Work-based Reflective (WRB) Model for in-service Tourism English teachers’ professional development in the Chinese context. Quantitative and qualitative data were collected through pre and post-tests, teacher’s logs, mentors’ comments, a questionnaire and semi-structured interview.  The findings showed that the WBR Model was effective in improving in-service Tourism English teachers’ professional development. It could significantly enhance the teachers’ knowledge concerning tourism operation and English teaching ability. It also enables teachers’ self-development through self-reflection.
Differences in the Test Results of Two Test Rubrics in the Yes/No Vocabulary Test
Authors: Wongsirichan Wallapha , Ward Jeremy
Published: June 2022

The Yes/No vocabulary test (YN test) is a receptive vocabulary size test that comes in a form of a checklist where learners answer yes to the words they know. However, an inconsistency of the test rubrics has been found. That is, rubric type 1 says: “Write Y (yes) if you know the meaning of the word” while rubric type 2 says: “Write Y (yes) if you think that the word exists in English”. These 2 rubrics seem to require different levels of vocabulary knowledge from test takers. Rubric 1 may need more knowledge of the word meaning while Rubric 2 may need less (i.e. only having seen the word or even guessing). This led to the doubt whether or not the 2 rubrics yield the same YN test results. Therefore, a study was conducted to compare these two rubrics by administering 2 YN test versions, i.e. Rubric 1 YN tests and Rubric 2 YN tests, to 600 first-year students of a university in Nakhon Ratchasima, followed by a translation test as a concurrent validity test. After that, a semi-structured interview of 72 students was conducted in order to gain some insight of how they did the tests. The findings revealed that the results of Rubric 1 YN tests correlated better with the results of the concurrent validity test than those of Rubric 2 YN tests.
När ska du ha barn?

Published: June 2022

Swedish comics and graphic novels have developed over the last decade with clearly feminist and socially critical themes. This article considers contemporary feminist comics through research on “lifelines,” the order in which a life should be lived to be considered intelligible. Focusing on comics by Karolina Bång, Liv Strömquist, Mats Jonsson, Sofia Olsson, Sara Elgeholm, Lisa Wool-Rim Sjöblom and Linda Spåman, we examine the way in which these works problematize the life choices of the characters and the passage into adulthood, with or without children. In these comics, the child becomes an ambivalent symbol for the meaning of life lived according to what Sara Ahmed refers to as the “straight line” of heteronormativity. Representations of reproduction, or lack thereof, are thus a central part of the discussion of intelligible adulthood taking place in contemporary feminist comics.

Evaluation of the applicability of Light’s criteria for differentiation of transudates from exudates across different serous fluids
Authors: Imran Ambereen Anwar Imran , Farzand Sadaf Farzand
Published: June 2022

Background: Serous fluids like pericardial, pleural and ascitic fluids are frequently submitted for pathological evaluation. The differentiation of these fluids into transudates and exudates is the prime aim of the evaluation as this determines the patients’ further management. Light’s criteria, proposed about 50 years ago, utilize various biochemical parameters for this differentiation and are the most widely used criteria.

Materials and Methods: This study was carried-out in Pathology department of Punjab Institute of Cardiology, Lahore. 60 serous fluid samples, including pericardial, pleural and ascitic fluids were analyzed routinely and classified into transudates and exudates applying Light’s criteria. The proportion of transudates and exudates were compared amongst different fluids by applying chi-square test, keeping level of significance at p-value <0.05. Cytological examination was reported according to the International System for Reporting Serous Fluid Cytopathology.

Results: Most of the fluids, i.e., 44 out of 60 were exudates. This trend was most pronounced for pericardial fluids where 29 out of 31 were exudates. 13 pleural fluids out of 23 were exudative while only 2 out of 6 ascitic fluids were exudative. On cytological examination, 55 fluids were negative for malignant cells, 2 fluids harbored atypical cells and 3 were positive for malignant cells. Careful gross examination of fluids furnished vital information in many cases.

Conclusion: Light’s criteria may not be equally applicable across all types of fluids. In our study it had a high sensitivity but low specificity for pericardial exudates. Hence, modification of the criteria may be required to enhance its validity. Careful gross and cytological examination may provide additional invaluable information that could significantly impact management strategies.

Keywords:  Pleural fluid, pericardial fluid, light’s criteria, transudate, exudate.

Studies on Production of Low-Cost Ceramic Membranes and Their Uses in Wastewater Treatment Processes
Authors: Artun Gülzade , AŞKIN Ayşegül
Published: June 2022

The need for water is increasing owing to the rapidly increasing world population, urbanization, industrialization, global climate changes, and intensive agricultural activities. While the importance of water is increasing day by day, the purification and reuse of water have become more and more essential. Reducing the pollutants at the source as much as possible and if it will be given to the receiving environment, giving the wastewater treatment in accordance with the current discharge regulations, are priority processes. Of the advanced separation methods, membrane separation technology is used to reduce water resource use and control environmental pollution and has advantages such as high separation efficiency, convenient operation, compact equipment, and energy-saving. Membranes are divided into two categories according to their structures: organic and inorganic membranes (or ceramic membranes). Compared to organic membranes, inorganic membranes have many advantages such as high thermal and chemical stability, good resistance to microbial erosion, easy regeneration and cleaning, high mechanical strength, and long-term stability in harsh conditions. The high cost of ceramic membranes is an important disadvantage. In recent years, it is seen that membrane production costs are reduced by using natural minerals such as kaolin, quartz, bauxite, diatomite, clay, limestone, dolomite, zeolite, and industrial wastes instead of the commonly used ceramic membrane raw materials. By using these raw materials, besides reducing the cost of ceramic membranes, it also contributes to lowering the temperatures required for their production. In this study, studies on ceramic membranes produced from industrial wastes (waste ash, sawdust, sewage sludge, construction and demolition wastes, waste diatomite, rice husk ash, sugarcane pulp ash, corn cob ash waste etc.) were examined.
Assessing Water Losses in Drinking Water Distribution Systems Using the SCADA System: The Erzincan Case
Authors: Ertugay Neşe , Bulut Oğuz
Published: June 2022

Reasons such as rapid population growth, urbanization, unconscious water use, environmental pollution, and changes in climate conditions increase water consumption, and water is consumed before completing its cycle in nature. This situation has directed the water producers to search for new resources in the face of increasing water demand and decreasing resources, but due to the high cost of the resource search, the water producers have turned to the understanding of reducing the high amounts of lost water and using water resources in a more planned and efficient manner.  Minimizing water losses in drinking water distribution networks is among these objectives.

In this study, drinking water data between January 2014 and January 2020 in Erzincan was examined, and the SCADA (Supervising Control and Data Acquisition) system placed in the drinking water distribution network in March 2018 was evaluated by considering the pre and post-drinking water data in the system. First of all, the terms between January 2014 and March 2018 which means before the installation of the SCADA system were examined, the data of the amount of water produced and the data of water consumed by the subscribers was collected from the Municipal Waterworks Unit, these data were transferred to the Water Balance Table, the results was analyzed and the actual water loss rates in the system were estimated. As a result of this estimation, before the SCADA system was established, the total physical and administrative water loss rate was seen as 64%, while the physical water loss rate was 28%. After the establishment of the SCADA automation system after March 2018, the date of the amount of water produced received from the SCADA system and the amount of water consumed was transferred to the Water Balance Table and the total physical and administrative loss was seen as 37% while the physical water loss rate was 14%. According to these results, it was observed that the water loss rate approached the minimum level within a short period with the SCADA automation system.

Authors: Günay Ezgi , Güzelçoban Mayuk Seher
Published: June 2022

Artificial intelligence and its sub-branch, machine learning technologies, have developed rapidly in recent years and their use for various purposes has seemed to be increased in various sectors from automotive to medicine, from law to marketing. Similarly, these technologies have begun to be used in the building sector and in the field of architecture. These technologies are being used in many fields in architecture such as feasibility studies, building design, project control, occupational safety, earthquake resistant building design and applications, energy efficient system design, construction with smart construction equipment, smart building design, and smart facade design. Despite this increasing use in the field, it has been determined by the literature review that the number of studies focusing on the use of machine learning in architecture, especially on building facades, is low. In this sense in the study, it is aimed to examine the relationship between artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies with architecture in the context of building facades. Initially in the study the topics and the historical process related to artificial intelligence and machine learning were explained, subsequently the use of technologies on the building facades was examined through examples. In this way, a guiding resource has been created for those who want to work on this subject in the future.

Published: June 2022

Aperture-based plasmonic nanoantenna design with dual-band resonance obtained in the region very close to the green wavelength in the spectrum between 400 nm and 700 nm, which can be used in non-invasive biological sensing applications in the future, is presented. In this circular aperture-based nanoantenna design, the effect of changing the material thickness and dielectric medium parameters on the antenna response is investigated. In the nanoantenna design using a double-layer conductive gold layer, both of thickness values are reduced to 5 nm. It is observed that this thickness value exhibits a very strong transmittance response compared to the thicker gold layer values used in the visible region. In this nanoantenna, which exhibits dual band properties at 508 and 551 nm wavelengths, the strongest transmittance peaks are obtained for 5 nm thickness of gold, 100 nm thickness of magnesium fluoride and the 100 nm radius of the circular aperture. In order to contribute to spectroscopic sensing applications, hot spots locations and near field enhancement distribution maps are also examined.

Published: June 2022

Van city has serious socio-economic cultural development problems. Despite these problems, Van's cultural and natural diversity, as well as its potential to be an important commercial center due to its geopolitical situation, are important for the solution of extant problems. In this regard, this paper strives to examine the challenges of Van from the cultural aspect. Accordingly; in Van, the investments determined by the actors affecting the development and planning process periodically (2003-2016) were evaluated vis-à-vis the classification of cultural economy and human development index. Content analysis was used in the research. The European Union (EU) is one of the international actors in Van and the national actors are; Ministry of Development, Ministry of Interior, Ministry of Culture and Tourism, T.C. Prime Ministry General Directorate of Foundations, Eastern Anatolia Project (EAP) Regional Development Administration, Eastern Anatolia Development Agency (EADA) and Municipalities. It is seen that these are important actors in development policies and the investments they have made coincide with the strategies they have targeted. International actors prioritize social and human development investments within the framework of EU regional development policies. National actors however followed both a development model within the scope of industry, trade and services, which was predominantly based on the economic perspective, and a development model from the tourism perspective in the services class. Consequently, it is seen that development in Van is not directly evaluated from the cultural view, but evaluated together with tourism, culture is instrumentalized for tourism and cultural tourism is brought to the fore and cultural policies are developed from the tourism perspective.

Published: June 2022

Directional Currents Method (DCM) is applied to various aperture and horn antennas including rectangular aperture antenna, circular aperture antenna, dielectric loaded rectangular aperture antenna and E- and H-plane sectoral horn antennas to investigate their radiation performances analytically over sea surface in microwave bands. First, the expressions of the hypothetical directional currents of these antennas are derived in free space and the total radiation patterns are generated by MATLABTM. Then, the same antennas are simulated by the commercial electromagnetic simulation software CSTTM and compared to check the parametric accuracy of DCM numerically. In the second step, these directional currents are employed in deriving the analytical radiation fields of the antennas under investigation over sea surface by incorporating Green’s functions based on Norton’s formulation. This is followed by CSTTM simulations to observe the parametric accuracy of DCM expressions for microwave radiation over sea surface.

El libro digital Enseñanza-aprendizaje de lenguas extranjeras. reflexiones, perspectivas y propuestas de sistematización investigativa, subyace una idea central que es el desarrollo de habilidades en lenguas extranjeras a pesar de que cada temática propone una particularidad que los autores logran hilvanar con recursos teóricos, fundamentos epistemológicos y metodológicos, que toman forma de constructos y que resultan de la sistematización de la experiencia situada en el desarrollo de un proyecto de investigación cuya comunicación es coherente con los propósitos que se investigan. La comunicación humana, tan antigua como el hombre mismo, ha sido objeto de reflexión con respecto a su naturaleza y a su realización, desde posiciones opuestas o complementarias, idealistas o pragmáticas. Pero su análisis y sistematización en libros digitales es un campo de estudio relativamente nuevo, propiciado por el indetenible desarrollo de las Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación TIC. La comunicación en lenguas extranjeras, es un proceso recurrente en el pensamiento de los autores que prestigian ambos volúmenes, pero desde el tercer entorno, se evidencia la comunicación a través del catálogo didáctico virtual, que como resultado del proyecto durante la pandemia Covid 19, constituye una relación ordenada de recursos didácticos nucleados por el principio de la sistematización integradora del contenido linguo-didáctico-profesional de la formación en lenguas extranjeras, y el carácter ubicuo y móvil de la formación, con una descripción orientadora que propicia la utilización didáctica eficiente de la comunicación en la que se relacionan el pensamiento y la acción, Pero así mismo, funcionalmente la comunicación está vinculada al entorno social y natural, por consiguiente, el concepto de comunicación puede abarcar gran parte de la actividad humana. Un concepto fundamental para los autores es la "competencia comunicativa" como el saber hacer, el saber ser y el saber convivir con el otro mediante la comunicación en lenguas extranjeras, cuyo aprendizaje potencia posturas más flexibles y más abiertas a la diversidad lingüística y 10 cultural del mundo que contribuyen a rehumanizar al aprendiz desde la relación lengua-cultura. El libro digital presenta una diversidad de enfoques teórico-prácticos del ámbito de lenguas extranjeras que animan al lector a adentrarse en el conocimiento de las categorías que se despliegan en su análisis y que dan cuenta de los nexos y relaciones del conocimiento que se ha construido en el aula de lenguas extranjeras.

Desde esta perspectiva, se trata de llegar a través de la educación a que el ser humano consiga integrar el saber conocer, saber hacer, saber ser y el saber convivir; para lograr lo óptimo del conocimiento, y que por consiguiente esto le sirva en todos los ámbitos en los cuales se desenvuelve quien se forma como pedagogo. De esta forma se contribuye a una sociedad crítica y creativa, creando para ello, otras renovadas formas de producir los saberes. El tema de la construcción del conocimiento, es un aspecto complejo y diverso que se podría estudiar desde diversos ámbitos (biológico, psicológico, pedagógico y educativo). En el presente texto el contenido es abordado consecuentemente desde aquella óptica, tratan los autores con capacidad los fundamentos teóricos y epistemológicos en función del nuevo enfoque de la educación, considerando la necesaria unidad dialéctica entre la teoría y la práctica educativa, la esencia de ese proceso ha sido y es el motor para el cambio de concepción de los parámetros educativos; en aquella tarea la filosofía de la educación se convierte en eje integrador para que la teoría y la práctica educativa vayan a la par. Se reconoce en los autores, un gran esfuerzo para repensar la educación en función de los requerimientos de la sociedad actual, a la cual se le atribuye el nombre de la sociedad del conocimiento, dinámica que conlleva el hecho de valorar la reestructuración de la educación, su análisis revalora el paso de una educación con énfasis en lo cognitivo a una educación integral, en que se involucra el conocer, hacer, ser y el convivir; para destacar y afirmar que existe la necesidad de un proceso de construcción del conocimiento que permite a los estudiantes desarrollar un pensamiento y modo de actuar lógico, crítico y creativo. Condición que marca la frontera de los saberes de ciencia para generar el bienestar de sí mismo y de los demás, sobrepasando el individualismo para lograr el Vivir Viviendo situado en los principios de la moral de una nueva pedagogía intercultural.
Aprendizaje de los estudios sociales, pensamiento crítico y componentes del marco lógico en la metodología de enseñanza
Authors: Ojeda Mauricio
Published: June 2022

Esta investigación se realizó de acuerdo al problema que se detectó en el Colegio Fiscomisional “Cristo Rey” de la ciudad de Esmeraldas, como es el uso inadecuado de las estrategias metodológicas apropiadas para el desarrollo del Pensamiento Crítico en el área de Estudios Sociales en el Colegio Fiscomisional “Cristo Rey”, por parte de los docentes del área, quienes trabajan en esta institución y están preocupados por los resultados de la evaluación que se presentan en el proceso de enseñanza y aprendizaje. Es de mucha importancia realizar esta investigación, ya que permitirá conocer las verdaderas causas por las que los docentes desconocen las estrategias específicas para desarrollar en los educandos el Pensamiento Crítico, puesto que la utilización de estrategias metodológicas es baja, porque poco a poco se investiga el significado de términos que se presentan en textos, se da poca importancia a los procesos metodológicos como la reflexión y el análisis crítico de cada estudiante, por lo que a simple vista se observa la dificultad en el proceso de enseñanza y aprendizaje lo que claro está conlleva a tener escaso desarrollo del pensamiento crítico en los estudiantes. La preocupación central que motivó la presente investigación radica en el análisis de por qué a pesar de los múltiples esfuerzos que se hacen para desarrollar herramientas de estudio efectivas en poblaciones de alumnos de distintos niveles, éstos fracasan con frecuencia. Se parte de la premisa de que esto ocurre así, porque en dichos esfuerzos se observa un desconocimiento de los procesos cognitivos, afectivos y meta cognitivos implicados en el aprendizaje significativo y, sobre todo; en su forma de enseñarlos. Como resultado, la mayor parte de los cursos de “hábitos de estudio”, “círculos de estudio” o “talleres de creatividad”, han logrado aprendizajes restringidos, poco perdurables y difícilmente transferibles a las situaciones de estudio cotidianas. En esta investigación se abordaron con mayor detalle las estrategias metodológicas que desarrollan el pensamiento crítico en los estudiantes. De este modo se implementaron estrategias para fomentar el pensamiento crítico en los estudiantes, lo que implica que los estudiantes no sólo aprendan ciencias, sino que aprendan a resolver científicamente problemas, que no sólo aprendan Cívica, sino que aprendan cómo conducirse de manera responsable y cooperativa con los que le rodean.
Public awareness and practices towards health impacts of PM2.5 in the Kingdom of Bahrain: identifying areas for intervention
Authors: Alzayani Salman , Alsabbagh Maha
Published: June 2022

Air quality has critical public health impacts as several diseases have been attributed to exposure to high PM2.5 concentrations. In the Kingdom of Bahrain context, while the sources of PM2.5 and prevailing trends have been studied, its social and health dimensions remain a gap in the literature. This study explores public perceptions of PM2.5 in the Kingdom of Bahrain, focusing especially on public awareness of PM2.5, its sources, and its health impacts. It further highlights actions taken by individuals to mitigate associated health impacts. This cross sectional study was based on the Driver-Pressure-State-Impact-Response framework. A self-administered questionnaire was distributed to the public, a total sample size of 263 responses. Descriptive statistics, including frequencies and percentages of participants’ responses, were calculated. The Independent Samples t-test and a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) were applied along with the Chi-Square test to identify factors associated with the public’s knowledge and practices relating to PM2.5 in Bahrain. A p-value of less than 0.05 was considered as statistically significant. A significant proportion of the participants were unaware of PM2.5, its concentration in Bahrain, and whether it is being measured. However, the majority of respondents had respiratory problems and took self-protective measures when the air quality was bad. There were statistically significant differences in the adoption of precautionary measures, which was prevalent among participants suffering from respiratory problems. Around 32% of the respondents were willing to pay monthly contributions to improve air quality and indicated their interest in receiving information on Bahrain’s air quality via social and mass media. The findings suggest that there is a need to raise public awareness towards air pollution and its health effects. Moreover, epidemiological studies should be conducted to advance understanding on how air pollution is linked to morbidity and mortality in Bahrain.

Authors: Colnaghi Bonassini Schmidt Ítala
Published: June 2022

Uma das dificuldades mais apontadas por magistrados e magistradas do Brasil é o distanciamento percebido entre o Poder Judiciário e a população, o que se reflete em incompreensão acerca do papel constitucional desse Poder, falta de reconhecimento e, ainda, agravamento da crise que afeta atualmente as instituições de Estado. Sem olvidar as inúmeras mazelas que contribuem para a crise atualmente observada em torno do sistema democrático como um todo, o presente artigo busca refletir sobre os avanços já alcançados e os desafios que se apresentam ao desenvolvimento de uma comunicação mais transparente e efetiva entre os tribunais brasileiros e a sociedade, levando em conta a salutar importância que a confiança do público possui sobre o sistema de justiça de um país.

Many actors use the norm of climate justice to fight climate change and to struggle against global inequities internationally and domestically. Despite the enormous diversity of ways in which actors have deployed ideas of climate justice, many of the policies framed within this norm sustain oppressive, silencing, and/or assimilating tendencies. Hence, this paper looks at the biases that were introduced from ideas of “sustainable development” into the discourse of climate justice. Through the cases of India and Oceania, the paper illustrates the ways in which colonial legacies of single-axis thinking and development emphasize a particular struggle at the expense of other experiences and ways of life.
