Бұл мақалада Қазақстанның орта мектептерінде 8-11 сынып оқушыларының мектеп бағдарламасы аясында отбасы тарихын оқытудың маңыздылығы жайлы сөз етіледі. ХХІ ғасыр адамдарының ақпарат қабылдауы көптеген зерттеулер көрсеткендей сексен пайызы көру арқылы болғандықтан, оқушыларға отбасы тарихын визуалды антропология бағыты негізінде, яғни визуалды деректерді, оның ішінде оқушылардың жеке отбасылық сақтауында тұрған фото альбомдар, фотолар, видеолар негізінде оқыту-дың мүмкіндіктері және перспективаларын анықтау үшін жасалған зерттеу жұмысының нәтижесі көрсе-тілген. Мақалада Алматы қаласы №159 Ы.Алтынсарин атындағы гимназиясы мен Алматы қаласы №208 мектеп-гимназиясының 8-11 сынып оқушылары қатысқан сауалнама нәтижелері келтірілген. Сауалнамаға барлығы төрт жүз отыз оқушы қатысқан. Сауалнама нәтижесінде оқушылардың отбасы тарихына деген қызығушылығы жоғары екенін, сонымен қатар отбасы тарихына арналған жеке қордағы естеліктерімен бөліскісі келетіндіктерін, отбасы тарихын танып білу олар үшін маңызды екендігін көрсететін нәтижелер туралы талдау жұмысы көрсетілген.
Отбасы ең маңызды әлеуметтік микроқұрылым ретінде бүкіл әлеуметтік жүйенің ажырамас бөлігі болып табылады және оның барлық басқа компоненттерімен ажырамас байланыста болады, қоғамда болып жатқан өзгерістерді тікелей немесе жанама түрде көрсетеді.
Қазіргі заманғы отбасылық психологтар мен әлеуметтанушылар отбасылық құрылымдағы орталық-тың туыстық қатынастардан, балалар мен ата-аналардың байланыстарынан ерлі-зайыптылық қатынас-тарға ауысуын байқайды, ал туыстық байланыстар, олардың маңызы зор болғанымен, екінші орынға шығып бара жатыр. Э.Г. Эйдемиллер және В. В. Юстицкий патриархалдық отбасы мен дәстүрлер бүгінгі қоғамда әлі де күшті, бірақ отбасы мүшелері арасындағы шекаралар диффузды, нашар құрылымдалған, бұл отбасы мүшелерінің денсаулығына, отбасының бірлігіне әсер етпей қоймайды деп тұжырымдайды.
Отбасы тарихы керек десеңіз бір қоғамның тұтас бір ұлттық идеясының пісіп жетілетін мекені болғандықтан, тарихшылар мен педагогтар тарапынан көптеген зерттеулерді қажет ететіні анық. Қазіргі отбасы институтында болып жатқан трансформациялар, ондағы, яғни отбасында тәрбиеленіп жатқан балаларға тікелей әсер ететіні сөзсіз. Балалардың ішінде, әсіресе жасөспірімдерге деген ықпалы орасан зор. Сол себепті, зерттеу жұмысы барысында біз сауалнамаға мектеп оқушылары арасынан 8-11 сынып оқушыларын қатыстырдық.

Ол дәстүрлі қазақ қоғамның әлеуметтік жіктерінің бір тобын құраған. Яғни, әлеуметтік-саяси категория болып табылады. Билер қазақ даласында әр ғасырда өмір сүрді. Олар өздерінің ақыл-парасатымен ел басқаруға араласқан, аймақты немесе ауылды ұйымдастырып жүретін қабілетті адамдар болды. Әр кезеңде өмір сүрген билер заманына қарай елді басқарған. Тарихқа назар аударсақ, олар дәстүрлі қазақ қоғамында Қазақ хандығы құрылғаннан бері XV-XVIII ғасырлар аралығында елді басқарған әлеуметтік элиталық топ болды. Олардың статусы мен сословиесінде елеулі өзгеріс XVIII-XIX ғасырларда болған. Билер институты Патшалық Ресей империясының әкімшілік басқаруы кезеңінде өзгеріске түсті.

Published: August 2024

In geographical education, interdisciplinary links allow to identify the main elements of educational content, to develop system-forming ideas, concepts, general scientific methods of learning activities, opportunities for students to comprehensively assimilate knowledge from different scientific disciplines. Interdisciplinary links influence the composition and structure of each academic discipline. Therefore, it is very important to emphasize the interdisciplinary connections taken into account in the content of geography and, conversely, in other fields of science besides geography. The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review of interdisciplinary related science fields that integrate geographic educational technologies. The study used methods of analysis, differentiation, systematisation to identify the interdisciplinary links between geography and sciences such as history; biology; ecology; mathematics; cartography; physics and chemistry. As a result of the study, it was found that these branches of science - form a holistic scientific worldview in the student, strengthen interdisciplinary links. Thus, interdisciplinary links in geographical education are a modern principle of learning, influencing the choice and structure of teaching material in a number of disciplines, and an integrated organisational form that activates teaching methods.

Published: August 2024

The article examines the conceptual foundations of the formation of a teacher’s reflective skills. Reflective skills are defined as an important component of professional competence, which consists of the ability to comprehend and analyze one’s pedagogical activity to improve it and adapt it to the needs of primary school students and the educational environment. The purpose of the study was to theoretically substantiate the conceptual foundations for the formation of a teacher’s reflective skills. The authors analyzed various theories and the concept of critical reflection. The analysis of the theories demonstrates that a teacher’s reflective skills are a multifaceted and dynamic process that includes self-analysis, critical thinking, and continuous professional development, and have several stages in their formation. The formation of reflective skills requires awareness, readiness for change, and a desire for continuous improvement of pedagogical practice. The importance of forming reflective skills in future teachers to enhance a teacher’s professional competence in an inclusive environment is particularly relevant, as it contributes to improving the quality of the educational process and creating a supportive and equitable educational environment for all primary school students.

Published: August 2024

Income inequality with financial development has been observed in most of the Asian economies. A lot of major factors may strengthen this inequality in these countries. Despite discussions on this issue, the policymakers have not found harmony in this relationship. Considering this, we investigate the link between financial development, institutional quality, and income inequality by using panel data from 2008 to 2018. GMM results reveal that financial development, economic growth, and institutional quality lessen income inequality in Asian countries. It is concluded that more access to credit may lessen the inequality in Asian economies. So, there is a need to make easy the availability of credit facilities for the general public. Institutions should also play a positive and contributing role in decreasing income inequality.  Finally, political and economic stability also plays an active and effective role by attracting more involvement in economic activities and trade openness.

Authors: Bankole A. A. , Hammed V.
Published: August 2024

This review examines the local steps that are involved in the palm oil production in Nigeria, which includes; harvesting palm fruits from palm trees, collecting the bunches of palm fruits to a spot, splitting the palm fruits bunches into smaller pieces known as spikelets, removal of palm fruits from spikelets, boiling of the palm fruits to soften its mesocarp, removal and grinding the palm fruits mesocarp from its endocarp, separation of palm oil from other constituents, heating the crude palm oil to obtain refined palm oil, packaging the palm oil in various sizes of sealed containers such as plastic container. Local technique of palm oil production is cheap and readily available, but it comes with poor yield. However, modern technique (the use of machine) is expensive, though, but it makes the process easier and faster, and enhances commercial palm oil production.

The study assessed the consumers’ preference for agricultural products in Nigeria supermarket in Osogbo metropolis, Osun state, Nigeria. Data was collected from sixty respondents with the aid of a structured questionnaire. The data collected were described using frequencies counts, percentages and means, while Pearson’s correlation was used to test the hypothesis. Most (65%) of the respondents were married. The mean age of the respondents was 42.80 years. The study further indicated that most (65%) of the respondents completed tertiary education and therefore highly literate. The study also revealed that quality of farm produce and packaging were considered benefits of buying agricultural products from supermarkets. There is significant relationship between age (r=0.039*, p=0.016), income (r=0.264*, p=0.042), years of patronage (r=0.293*, p=0.023) and consumers’ preference for agricultural products. It was concluded that respondents preferred to buy agricultural products like green pea, apple, cassava flakes, ginger, fish, chicken and oats from supermarkets. The study recommended that supermarkets should design their packaging in such a way to cater for low-income earners to encourage more people patronize them.
Politics and Politiking Registers in Nigerian Campaigns
Authors: Idebe Mabel , Eyi Ngulube Isaac
Published: August 2024

This paper examines the register used in politics to achieve persuasion. Politics is a psychological warfare for winning peoples’ heart to do the biddings of politicians. Propaganda is a major tool politicians deploy to fight political opponents. It is a smart way of telling people black is white and make them believe it, Propaganda itself is not possible without language (literal or figurative). Language is central to communication. In Nigeria, effective use of language is an assurance for political success. Political register helps us understand how language is used by those who wish to gain power, exercise power, and keep power. The speeches of these politicians are replete with unachievable objectives enshrined in propaganda meant for some gullible electorates. Their diction changes from that of persuasion, emotion, pity, among others to one of violence when it suits them. Politicians employ different political strategies with the aid of language to rightly convince, confuse and elicit necessary information and subsequently votes from the electorates. The theory used for this study is the Speech Act Theory. The methodology is qualitative and quantitative. A survey design is used. This study evinces that political register makes use of linguistic devices, re-branding, marketing of candidates’ and pushing the narratives to political parties to help them be on top of the game. The speeches selected are of very high quality and the messages are very successfully communicated. We propose that when a politician delivers these sorts of speeches the goal is to draw the audience to himself and convince the electorate of why they are the better candidates for the election. To achieve this, politicians use their words in subtle and careful ways that capture the attention, interest, and admiration of the listeners. These speeches employ words and varying sentence structures. The sentences employ the pronoun system to deliberately make the audience believe the speech is about them – their ideas, opinions, desires, and comradeship.
Barriers Faced by Women and Girls with Disabilities in Disclosing Sexual Abuse in the Northwest Region of Cameroon: A Case Study

Women with disabilities are two to three times more likely to experience violence than women without a disability and are less likely to disclose incidents of sexual violence and domestic abuse. In a typically patriarchal society like Cameroon, being a woman or girl with a disability increases the likelihood of gender-based violence – a risk that has been further exacerbated by the ongoing socio-political crisis in the region. There is a misconception that women and girls with disabilities like their male counterparts are safe from sexual violence given the falsehood that it is an unusual and shameful occurrence to have sexual relations with a woman with a disability. These prevailing prejudices inspired this study to investigate the barriers that prevent women with disabilities from reporting sexual and domestic abuse. The case study design was used to conduct an in-depth content analysis of the situation of women with disability who had been abused. Nonprobability sampling resulted in a selection of 3 cases per disability type including vision, hearing, mobility, and psychosocial impairment types. Results show that there has been dead silence on abuse of women with disabilities due to social pressure, twists in the narrative to focus on blaming the victim, ignorance of what abuse is, and normalisation of abuse amongst other reasons. The study recommends the need to enhance attitudinal change through an integrated awareness strategy that includes both women and girls with disability and the perpetrators on the one hand, and society on the other with consistent capacity building for service providers on identification and pathways to managing women and girls who have been abused.

The dye was synthesized by nitration of aniline to para-nitro aniline, diazotization and coupling reactions. The melting point of the para-nitro aniline was taken to yield 147ºC. The result from the GC-MS shows that the compound with the highest relative abundance of 100% showed a molecular ion peak of 129.4 compounds which correspond to lower relative abundance. Also from the GC-MS result, the two peaks of masses 57.5 g and 83.4 g respectively correspond to fragments of the samples. Ultra-violet spectrophotometer was used to determine the absorption of the dye. The para-nitro aniline dye as synthesized showed the highest absorbance of 2.214 at 220 nanometers. The dye was applied to pure cotton and cellulose. The percentage shift of the dye toward the fabric i.e. percentage exhaustion of the dye was calculated to yield 73% which shows that the reactive dye has high exhaustion value. Fastness test was carried out on the dyed fabric to characterize the material’s color resistance to fading and running. These tests are heat, light and wash fastness which is rated 1-5 according to Ukponwam and Odilora (2000) where 1 shows poor fastness and 5 very good fastness. The wash, heat and light fastness of 4, 5 and 5 respectively shows that the dyed fabric has an excellent fastness to washing, heating and sun drying.
Self-Care Pedagogy in the Undergraduate Curriculum: A Post Pandemic Faculty Survey
Authors: Spector Anya Y. , Reynoso Farah
Published: August 2024

This exploratory study describes the post pandemic integration of classroom-based self-care pedagogy with students engaged in field placements in human services organizations. Forty-nine undergraduate faculty members at a large public university system in New York City completed an online survey about how they teach self-care (i.e., integrate self-care pedagogy) in their courses, their needs for resources, and barriers to integrating self-care. The survey is grounded in the National Organization of Human Services (NOHS) Ethical Standard 35, which requires human services workers to prioritize their own wellness and self-care. Burgeoning research demonstrates the deleterious effects of the Covid19 pandemic on undergraduate students’ well-being. Students’ difficulties are further exacerbated for those undertaking human services work in community-based organizations as student interns. Faculty recognized the mental health challenges faced by students in field placements, both because of the demands of agency-based human services work, as well as the exposure to sensitive classroom discussions about clients’ psychosocial needs and traumas. However, most faculty have not meaningfully integrated self-care into the curriculum. This study highlights the need to develop strategies to promote student well-being and mitigate the effects of exposure to potential sources of vicarious trauma. Recommendations for best practices for undergraduate departments are offered.

Spanish in The Linguistic Landscape of San Diego County: A Case of Linguicism?
Authors: Alamillo Rosalva
Published: August 2024

This study aims to examine the linguistic landscape of six neighborhoods in San Diego County, focusing on the prevalence of languages and the role of Spanish, a heritage language in the region. The neighborhoods were categorized into three areas with predominantly Latinx populations (Latin areas) and three with predominantly White populations (White areas). Signage in these areas was analyzed across five categories: (a) language(s) used on signs, (b) dominant languages displayed, (c) functional purposes of languages (informative vs. symbolic), (d) types of translations provided, and (e) public vs. private authorship. The findings reveal a preference for English in White areas, whereas Latin areas exhibit greater use of both English and Spanish, with bilingual signage being common. Moreover, Latin areas show greater diversity in types of translations and a significant symbolic function of Spanish on signs. These patterns shed light on local power dynamics between the two predominant languages in the area. They suggest that Spanish and bilingualism are predominantly confined to Latin areas, with even these neighborhoods displaying relatively low levels of Spanish presence. This marginalisation of Spanish diminishes linguistic empowerment and influence for speakers of this heritage language. The study exposes opaque relationships between the dominant White population and the subordinated Latinx group, interpreted through power dynamics and the expansion of White public space alongside linguistic imperialism of English. These dynamics perpetuate racialisation and oppression, particularly affecting speakers of minoritised languages such as Spanish. The consequences include language anxiety among historically underrepresented groups and identity crises. Ultimately, this research provides insights into the status of Spanish as a heritage language in Southern California.

This qualitative study investigates the integration of multicultural literature within higher education classrooms, examining experiences, challenges, necessary support, and perceived impacts on students. Framed within critical pedagogy theory, the research aimed to uncover insights into the transformative potential of diverse narratives. Guided by qualitative research principles, specially descriptive phenomenology, the study employs semi-structured interviews with literature instructors selected through purposive sampling. Data collection involved multiple online platforms to facilitate candid discussions, ensuring a diverse representation of perspectives. The interview guide was rigorously developed and validated through pre-testing and expert consultation, ensuring relevance to the research objectives. Interviews were recorded and transcribed verbatim for thematic analysis, a methodical approach to identifying patterns and themes within the data. Inductive reasoning guided the analysis process, allowing for theory formulation from observed patterns. Intercoder reliability checks and member-checking techniques were employed to enhance data validity and credibility. The analysis of participant responses revealed multifaceted teaching strategies, emphasizing the significance of cultural representation, innovative approaches, and fostering cross-cultural understanding. Teachers adapt their methods to accommodate diverse student voices while leveraging technology and cultural sensitivity. This study emphasises that institutions, educators, and students collectively contribute to fostering a culturally enriched learning environment. It also contributes to inclusivity and diversity in education, cultivating cultural intelligence and a broader understanding of global perspectives. The study highlights the necessity for literature teachers to have access to diverse resources, professional development opportunities, and collaboration for effective integration. Moreover, higher education institutions are crucial in supporting this integration through curriculum enhancements, resource allocation, and adequate preparation time. Despite challenges such as limited institutional support, the personal dedication and commitment of teachers and students play a pivotal role in successfully integrating multicultural literature into educational settings. These findings provide nuanced insights into the complexities of integrating multicultural literature in higher education, contributing to educational theory, policy development, and pedagogical practices.
