Cooperative learning stands as a recognized educational approach with potential to facilitate desired learning outcomes. This literature review aims to examine the existing body of scientific literature concerning the effects of cooperative learning on students within the realm of physical education. While a systematic review encompassing the years 2014 to 2019 was previously undertaken (Bores-García et al., 2021), this study provides a more recent overview spanning from 2019 to 2024. Utilizing three prominent databases (ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Scopus), articles pertaining to cooperative learning in physical education were selected in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Following the application of exclusion criteria, a total of 11 articles were identified and categorized. Overall, the findings indicate that cooperative learning proves effective in enhancing students' motivation, participation, social skills, and learning achievements within the domain of physical education. Tailoring cooperative learning strategies to align with specific learning objectives and student characteristics emerges as pivotal in enriching students' educational experiences and accomplishments in this field. Despite the insights gained, limitations inherent in the review are acknowledged, warranting further global exploration through additional literature reviews or mapping studies (including bibliometric and scientometric analyses). Moreover, continued research on the application and impact of cooperative learning is deemed imperative in light of contemporary societal values emphasizing social interaction, dialogue, respect, as well as the significance of physical activity and sports.

Published: April 2024

The development of psychomotor skills allows students to demonstrate movement skills, knowledge and social relationships that strengthen the personality of the individual. The purpose of the study was to propose a plan of socio-educational strategies for the development of psychomotor skills in early education students of the Sewarare 1200 kindergarten, located in Mexico. It was configured within a quantitative paradigm, of a descriptive-projective type, with a transversal non-experimental design, with a sample of 47 students and 4 teachers, to whom a questionnaire structured in two parts was applied. The results showed that initial education teachers in the area of Physical Education have moderate and low knowledge in the management of socio-educational strategies. While the students demonstrated a moderate and low level of psychomotor competencies. Hence the need to propose a plan of socio-educational strategies for the development of psychomotor skills in students which offers elements of experiences, adaptation to space, relationship with others, bringing rewarding and healthy emotions, essential for the future performance of the learner in the different facets of life, besides being a pedagogical tool to help teachers to contribute and improve their school practice.

Yield of sugar beet with drip irrigation, with Penman’s equation and AquaCrop model
Authors: Pinna Jorge , Rivas Kevin
Published: April 2024

It is necessary to estimate sugar beet yield, because studies with this crop demonstrated than in Peruvian coastal zone, could be a profitable crop. The objective of the present experiment was to know if dry matter yield of sugar beet is related with Penman’s equation, or FAO’s AquaCrop model. Experiment was made in a sandy soil, non-salty, calcareous, very poor in organic matter, with drip irrigation in Peruvian northern coast. Four treatments: two, three, four and five plant rows per irrigation drip line, in a completely random design, with four replications were utilized. Calculated fresh matter weighs with AquaCrop were between 15.5 and 24.5 Mg.ha-1, very much lesser to real ones (between 67.5 and 103.9 Mg.ha-1) hence Aqua Crop model is not effective to estimate yield of sugar beet. It is possible to estimate yield of sugar beet, with Penman’s formula, which varied between 11.40 and 27.96 Mg.ha-1 dry weight, and the real one was between 13.4 and 21.5 Mg.ha-1, with a "Root Mean Square Error" (RMSE) of 3.73.
Clarification of the Theory of Superconductivity and Superfluidity based on Scientific Philosophy
Authors:   Candidate of Chemical Sciences, Republic of Kazakhstan, Karabalievich Altayev Namaz
Published: April 2024

The development of the results of the theory of superconductivity (BCW) is based on the idea of a deep analogy between some ideas of quantum electrodynamics and quantum hydrodynamics. On the other hand, there are reasons to doubt the basic results of quantum electrodynamics. The reason is that in order to complete the development of quantum electrodynamics, it is necessary to supplement it with the results of reassignment operations. The founder of quantum electrodynamics, Dirac, believed that such a necessity arose because of the defects in this doctrine. In this article, the main results of quantum electrodynamics and quantum hydrodynamics are obtained quite correctly on the way, where the basic ideas of scientific philosophy are taken as a basis.

Switching Sudan’s Power Generation Units’ Fuel to Natural Gas Enhances the Efficiency, Durability and Lower the Cost
Authors: Elbashir Nimir , Musa Tagwa , Saeed Khalid , Abdel Kariem Fatih
Published: April 2024

Sudan ranks among the top 20 Sub-Saharan countries facing electricity shortages, affecting approximately 20 million people as of 2020. Political and economic instability led to an increase in the electricity deficit, reaching over 62% in 2021, an 8% rise from 2019. Thermal power stations in Sudan, which contribute 37% of the electricity supply, encounter operational, maintenance, and fuel procurement challenges. They rely on various fuels, including liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), light diesel oil (LDO), and heavy fuel oil (HFO), with fuel procurement difficulties amid declining oil production.

This study explores the potential of using natural gas instead of the conventional crude oil-based fuels listed above. Natural gas is known for its cost-effectiveness and lower greenhouse gas emissions, offering a cleaner alternative. The study involves the calculation of total gas volumes, flared gas, and operational costs for diesel and natural gas, with an evaluation of their compatibility with the operational requirements of thermal power generation units.

The study reveals that upgrading existing thermal stations to a combined cycle system and transitioning to natural gas can reduce costs by 52% compared to diesel operations. The study also demonstrates that the annual gas requirement for operations is approximately 245 billion cubic feet, which is higher than the local production, indicating the need for importing liquified natural gas (LNG).
Thoracic duct embolization at Dong Nai General Hosptal: A case report
Authors: Vo Tuan Anh , Kieu Minh Son
Published: April 2024

Introduction: Thoracic duct embolization in the treatment of chylothorax has been proven safe, effective, and minimally invasive. We report a case of successful coil occlusion of thoracic duct at Dong Nai General Hospital
Case report: a 32-year-old female patient was admitted to the hospital because of shortness of breath and massive right pleural effusion. After pleural drainage, the diagnosis of chylous effusion was confirmed. The patient did not respond to medical treatment and received intervention to occlude the thoracic duct 1 week after admission. After intervention, the pleural fluid flow gradually decreased and stopped completely after 3 days. The patient had the drain removed and was discharged from the hospital on the 5th postoperative day. No early complications were recorded during the hospital stay.
Conclusion: Thoracic duct occlusion intervention is a minimally invasive method, safe, with few complications. The method is gradually becoming the first choice in the treatment of chylous pleural effusion. Initial implementation of this technique at Dong Nai General Hospital helps reduce the load on central hospitals, improving the capacity and reputation of the local team.

India's Development of Infrastructures and Financing – An Analytical Study
Authors: Dr. Sayan Basu
Published: April 2024

One of the most important foundations of productivity in every economy is infrastructure. The main problem in emerging countries has been pushing for infrastructure development, and in particular, raising money for infrastructure projects. The goal of the current study is to examine how India is funding its infrastructure development. In order to address the infrastructure deficit in the nation, the study looked at how India's infrastructure is developing, looked into where money for it comes from, assessed the government's efforts to make financing easier, and made recommendations for policies to boost infrastructure spending. The supply side and demand side still have a sizable imbalance, despite the government of India and the reserve bank of India having launched many steps to promote funding for infrastructure. Utilise the untapped potentials; review the statutory liquidity ratio norms for banks; develop the municipal bond market; promote regional integration and improved connectivity through creation of corridors between sub-continental regions, which would not only bridge the finance gap but also improve connectivity. These are just a few of the recommendations made in the paper

Published: April 2024

The purposes of this study were to quantify the physiological response to the initial two-week preseason period in elite male rugby league (RL) athletes, and to determine if a repeated bout effect (RBE) occurs. Eighteen RL players were monitored for the initial two-week preseason period. Blood samples were collected on days (D)1, D2, D4, D5, D8, D9, D11 and D12 to measure creatine kinase (CK). Neuromuscular power was assessed on D1, D5, D8 and D12. During field-based sessions, the external training load was quantified using global positioning system technology, whilst the internal load was quantified using the training impulse and the session rating of perceived exertion. Resistance-based gym session volume was quantified by total repetitions x weight lifted. Perceived measures of fatigue and muscle soreness were assessed on all training days. Two-way (day x week) repeated measures analysis of variance and Bonferroni’s corrected post-hoc tests identified significant changes. There were no significant changes in CK activity (649.2 ± 255.0 vs. 673.8 ± 299.1 µL; p = 0.63) or internal training load measures from week 1 to week 2. External training load measures including total distance (4138.1 ± 198.4 vs. 4525.0 ± 169.2 m; p < 0.001) and repeated high-intensity efforts (12.6 ± 1.8 vs. 17.5 ± 1.8 au; p < 0.001) significantly increased in week 2 compared to week 1. Internal training loads and CK activity did not change in response to an increase in external training loads during the initial preseason. The current results provide support for a ‘real world’ perspective of the RBE phenomenon that may be more applicable for team sport practitioners.

Chaotic Spread-Spectrum Communication: A Comparative Study between Chaotic Synchronization and Matched Filtering
Authors: Tihomorskis Nikolajs , Ahrens Andreas , Aboltins Arturs
Published: April 2024

This publication investigates the performance of demodulation methods utilized in spread spectrum chaotic communication systems in order to understand conditions at which advanced demodulation methods, such as chaotic synchronization, provide tangible benefits over classical, matched filtering-based approaches. We conduct simulations and comparisons of three different communication systems: classic direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS), chaotic signal fragment-based pseudo-chaotic spread spectrum (PCSS), and chaotic synchronization-based antipodal chaos shift keying (ACSK). These systems possess similar spectral and time domain characteristics, allowing us to shed light on their fundamental differences and limitations in chaos-based communication. Additionally, we assess the impact of frequency modulation (FM) on these modulation methods, as FM allows the creation of simplified non-coherent modulation schemes. Our findings, based on the analysis of bit error ratio (BER) curves, demonstrate that in the case of a non-dispersive communication channel, the utilization of chaotic synchronization does not allow to achieve performance of correlation-based receivers. Additionally, the utilization of chaotic synchronization for multiple access poses certain challenges due to malicious synchronization between users. As a supplementary finding, we show that in systems with matched filter-based demodulation, discrete-time quantized spreading sequences confer an advantage over analogous, continuous-time spreading waveforms.

En este contexto, urgen medidas para una gestión sustentable del lago y en esto la participación de las organizaciones pesqueras es clave. En este estudio se propone el análisis de las fortalezas de estas organizaciones colectivas a través de la teoría de los bienes comunes y los principios de diseño de instituciones de larga duración de Ostrom, considerando que el grado de cumplimiento de estos principios estará asociado con el potencial de las cooperativas pesqueras en el manejo sustentable del lago. Se utilizaron métodos cualitativos y cuantitativos, diseñando una matriz metodológica con criterios, indicadores e índice de cumplimiento basados en una escala de valores y entrevistas a pescadores y representantes de 17 cooperativas. Los resultados muestran índices de cumplimiento de 0.17 a 1.0 de los principios de Ostrom, indicando que las cooperativas pesqueras tienen capacidades colectivas para colaborar en beneficios mutuos y cuentan con bases para un escalamiento en sus niveles organizativos, fundamento para una organización de mayor nivel que participe activamente en el ordenamiento de la pesquería del lago.

Metabolism in the body is influenced by electrolytes. If the electrolyte concentration is abnormal, health problems will occur. Drinks that contain electrolytes are known as isotonic drinks. The kidneys are organs that play a role in body balance, such as controlling body fluids and maintaining the balance between acidic and alkaline compounds. It is important to check BUN and creatinine to determine kidney function. The aim of the research was to analyze the effect of giving isotonic drinks on the results of BUN and creatinine examinations in mice. This type of research is experimental which uses serum from test animals in the form of mice (Mus musculus). The test animals were divided into 5 groups and each group was treated for 14 days. Then after 14 days the test animals were sampled to check BUN and creatinine levels to determine the effect of giving isotonic drinks. All data is processed statistically using SPSS. The results of the ANOVA test obtained a Sig value. 0.878 on BUN levels and Sig values. 0.265 in creatinine levels. Conclusion: With the H0 criteria rejected if the significant value is 0.05 then H0 is accepted which can state that giving isotonic drinks with volumes of 0.5 ml, 0.8 ml and 1 ml has no effect on the results of checking BUN and creatinine levels.

This meta-analysis explores the impact of diversity and inclusion (D&I) initiatives on organizational performance. By synthesizing findings from various studies, this research aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of how D&I initiatives contribute to organizational success. The analysis reveals that organizations implementing D&I initiatives experience a range of benefits, including increased innovation, improved decision-making, and enhanced employee engagement and satisfaction. These initiatives create a more inclusive work environment where employees from diverse backgrounds feel valued and supported, leading to higher levels of productivity and organizational performance. Furthermore, the meta-analysis highlights the importance of leadership commitment and accountability in driving the success of D&I initiatives. Organizations with strong leadership support for D&I are more likely to see positive outcomes, including improved financial performance and competitive advantage. The findings suggest that D&I initiatives have a significant impact on organizational performance, and organizations that prioritize diversity and inclusion are better positioned to achieve their goals and thrive in today's diverse marketplace. This paper will explore the impact of diversity and inclusion programs on organizational performance. By conducting a meta-analysis of recent studies, the paper aims to identify patterns and outcomes related to the implementation of such initiatives across different industries and cultural contexts. The study will also examine the role of leadership in fostering an inclusive environment and how it correlates with employee satisfaction, innovation, and financial performance.

In today's dynamic business environment, the alignment between information technology (IT) and business strategy is critical for organizations seeking sustained competitive advantage. This paper presents a comprehensive examination of theoretical frameworks supporting this alignment, aiming to provide insights into how organizations can effectively integrate IT capabilities with strategic objectives. The theoretical foundations explored include the Resource-Based View (RBV), which emphasizes leveraging unique resources and capabilities to achieve competitive advantage. Additionally, the Dynamic Capabilities Framework underscores the importance of an organization's ability to adapt and innovate in response to changing market conditions, highlighting the role of IT in facilitating agility and flexibility. The Strategic Alignment Model offers a structured approach to ensuring coherence between business strategy, IT strategy, and organizational infrastructure, enabling seamless integration and alignment. Value Chain Analysis provides a framework for understanding how IT can add value across different stages of the value chain, informing strategic decision-making and resource allocation. Moreover, IT Governance Frameworks, such as COBIT and ITIL, offer guidelines for effective management and governance of IT resources to support strategic objectives. Business Process Reengineering (BPR) is also examined as a methodology for redesigning business processes to align with strategic goals and leverage IT capabilities. Through an exploration of these theoretical frameworks, this paper aims to equip organizations with the knowledge and tools necessary to achieve sustained competitive advantage through the strategic alignment of IT and business strategies.
