Authors: Ghosh Maitrayee , Bhatt Jay , Khoo C , Singh D , Chaudhry A S
Published: January 2025

The nature of work for librarians/information professionals is undergoing a profound transformation, due to the arrival of deadly diseases like AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome) and the change in information needs of the local community. This change necessitates much more professional expertise, updated knowledge, critical thinking and involvement in developing effective AIDS literacy programs. Information professionals serving in different libraries or potential information dissemination centers can provide dedicated services to society by helping to access AIDS information not only in urban settings but also in rural environments. This paper outlines strategies for effective collaboration in the context of AIDS literacy promotion efforts. It identifies a number of obstacles in the process of empowering the community and suitable measures essential for success.

The Status of a Deputy Head of the Municipality in the Polish Legal System
Authors: Gajewski Grzegorz
Published: January 2025

The changes in the political system that occurred in Poland in 1989 made it necessary to adapt many areas of law to the new system or to arrange their legal regulations anew. Such newly created legal entities include local governments, including the local government of a municipality, which was already established at the beginning of 1990 and whose process of creation and improvement in many respects has not yet been completed. Examining the legal position of the deputy head of the municipality, whose status and scope of activity are highly controversial, is one such aspect. The presented study, based on the necessary in this case analysis of legal regulations, employing the formal-dogmatic method supported by the historical method, addresses the most crucial problems of the functioning of the deputy executive authority in the municipality: the problem of the legal admissibility of their non-appointment, their status as a deputy head of the municipality and the competence scope when the head of the municipality is unable to fulfil his duties. As a result of the conducted analysis, the author advocates amendments to the regulations concerning the deputy head of the municipality, which, given the monocratic nature of the municipal executive authority, may potentially contribute to enhancing the security of the municipality’s functioning.

Status and Prospect for Research on Functioning and Achievements of Both Legislative Chambers of the Polish Parliament and Their Successors since mid-October 1938 till December 1939
Authors: Wojtacki Maciej
Published: January 2025

This article presents the status of research on the Sejm of the 5th Term (1938–1939) and circumstances related to establishment of the National Council (Pol. Rada Narodowa) by president Władysław Raczkiewicz in December 1939. Therefore, the most important political and legal issues such as: electoral campaign and elections in autumn 1938 as well as change of statutes for both chambers of the Polish Parliament during the last Sejm session on 2 September 1939, were mentioned in this paper. Also, the main areas of activity of ethnic minorities representatives in the Sejm of the fifth term (1938–1939) and the problem of the Silesian Sejm (Pol. Sejm Śląski) before the outbreak of WWII were discussed. It allowed the author to present research postulates, both for necessary basic research and in the terms of concept analysis conducted through the historico-legal method with some elements of comparative studies. This would require additional archival research, both at home and abroad, i.e. in France, the USA, and the United Kingdom. It should be complemented by formal analysis of the last the Sejm and the Senate resolutions of September 1939.
Regulation, Competition, and Market Power in Telecommunications across Latin America
Authors: Clavijo Renzo
Published: January 2025

This study examines the regulatory landscape and competitive dynamics in the telecommunications industry of five key Latin American countries: Colombia, Peru, Mexico, Brazil, and Chile. Focusing on market concentration analysis and the identification of regulatory policies that may impact market competitiveness, the research aims to contribute insights to the discussion about telecommunications policy in the region. This article encompasses the analysis for both fixed and mobile services for each country in the sample. Using descriptive analysis, I explore potential relationships among the evolution of key variables, offering evidence on the intricate interplay between regulation, competition, and market power in the Latin American telecommunications industry. Preliminary findings reveal a remarkable market concentration in mobile services and a somewhat lower yet significant concentration in fixed services. Quantitative reduced-form evidence supports expected impact of certain regulations on key market indicators across the region.

AIM: To investigate the effects of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and melatonin, which have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, on potential 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-induced optic nerve damage in rats.
METHODS: Twenty-four rats were categorized into four groups of six rats: healthy (HG), 5-FU (FUG), ATP+5-FU (AFU), and melatonin+5-FU (MFU). ATP (4 mg/kg) and melatonin (10 mg/kg) were administered intraperitoneally and orally, respectively. One hour after ATP and melatonin administration, rats in the AFU, MFU, and FUG were intraperitoneally injected with 5-FU (100 mg/kg). ATP and melatonin were administered once daily for 10d. 5-FU was administered at a single dose on days 1, 3, and 5 of the experiment. After 10d, the rats were euthanized and optic nerve tissues were extracted. Optic nerve tissues were biochemically and histopathologically examined.
RESULTS: ATP and melatonin treatments inhibited the increase in malondialdehyde (MDA) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels, which were elevated in the FUG. The treatments also prevented the decrease in total glutathione (tGSH) levels and the superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activities (P<0.001). This inhibition was higher in the ATP group than in the melatonin group (P<0.001). ATP prevented histopathological damage better than melatonin (P<0.05).
CONCLUSION: ATP and melatonin have the potential to be used in alleviating 5-FU-induced optic nerve damage. In addition, ATP treatment shows better protective effects than melatonin.

Published: January 2025

AIM: To investigate the potential mechanisms of A-V pattern and evaluate the surgical outcomes used in the treatment of sensory exotropia.
METHODS: The medical records of patients with sensory A-V pattern exotropia who underwent strabismus surgery between May 2014 to June 2019 was retrospectively reviewed. The control group included sensory exotropia patients without A-V pattern and concomitant A-V pattern exotropia patients with normal vision who undergone strabismus surgery over this same time period. Ocular alignment, best corrected visual acuity, oblique muscle function, and stereopsis records were collected.
RESULTS: Among the 843 eligible patients, 91 (10.79%; 39 males and 52 females) had A-pattern (54, 6.4%) or V-pattern (37, 4.4%). Age at onset of vision impairment was 4±5y and at the time of surgery was 25±9y. Statistically significant negative correlations were present between impaired visual acuity and the pre-operative exodeviation (r=-0.198, P=0.016) and patterns (r=-0.207, P=0.015). Age at surgery and exodeviation in patients with concomitant A-V pattern exotropia was significantly earlier as compared with that of sensory A-V pattern exotropia and sensory exotropia (both P<0.0001). There were no significant differences in these clinical variables between sensory exotropia with or without A-V pattern. Deviation and pattern were significantly reduced in patients receiving horizontal rectus surgery with or without oblique muscle surgery (both P<0.0001).
CONCLUSION: The prevalence of sensory A-V pattern exotropia in our study is 10.79%. Visual acuity represents an important factor contributing to the occurrence and development of A-V pattern. Isolated horizontal rectus surgery can provide a good option for the correction of sensory A-V pattern exotropia.
The impact of cross disciplinary communication methods on the support needs, quality of life, and emotions of patients with advanced lung cancer
Authors: Yao Chun , Wang Zhen , Chen Dongliang , Huang Yongkang , Qi Jiali
Published: January 2025

Background: The condition of advanced lung cancer patients is already quite severe. At this stage, the tumor has basically spread to other areas or caused multiple recurrent lesions, which not only increases the difficulty of treatment but also leads to a significant decrease in disease control rate. Aim: To analyze the impact of cross disciplinary communication methods on patients with advanced lung cancer. Methods: A comparative study involving 152 advanced lung cancer patients from January 2022 to January 2024 was conducted. Patients were randomly divided into an observation group (73 cases, using interdisciplinary communication) and a control group (79 cases, using routine nursing). An interdisciplinary team, including nurses, physicians, head nurses, and psychology experts, developed communication plans. The study compared emotional states (DASS-21), supportive care needs (SCNS-SF34), disease uncertainty (MUIS), quality of life (FACT-L), and compliance between the two groups. The study's limitation is the relatively single sample selection, potentially affecting result generalizability. Result: After intervention, the DASS-21 score, SCNS-SF34 score, and MUIS score in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, while the FACT-L score was higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05); the good compliance rate of the observation group was 97.26% (71/73), which was higher than that of the control group (86.08% (68/79) (P < 0.05). Conclusion: For patients with advanced lung cancer, adopting cross disciplinary communication for intervention can not only effectively alleviate their negative emotions and reduce their sense of disease uncertainty, but also maximize the satisfaction of their supportive care needs, ensure their quality of life, and to some extent, obtain good cooperation from patients.

Published: January 2025

The purpose of this study — is to study the differences in recurrent indicators based on electroencephalography signals of patients after orthodontic treatment during cognitive tests. Depending on the type of impact (installation of braces or aligners), identify markers in the canals, which can be used to further determine the strength of stress from orthodontic intervention for subsequent correction of treatment.

Methods. Recurrence analysis was used to study electroencephalography data. In particular, recurrent indicators were constructed for each channel of each patient.

Results. The channels in which changes in recurrent indicators with different types of orthodontic influence are the greatest are demonstrated. For these channels, the dynamics of recurrent indicators in them is described to highlight some markers of stress and pain experienced by the patient.

Conclusion. In the course of the study, recurrent indices were constructed based on the electroencephalography data of patients after orthodontic treatment. It was shown that the highest differences in patients of different groups were demonstrated by the temporal and occipital canals (O1, O2, T3, T4, T5, T6). Thus, the value of recurrent indices of this group of indices should be used as a marker of the patient’s condition.
Women’s Perceptions of How Martial Arts Influences their Psychological Well-being
Authors: Eggleton Heidi , Skea Derek
Published: January 2025

Literature shows martial arts (MA) positively influence psychological well-being (Bell, 2008; Fuller, 1988; Moore et al., 2020; Vargas, 2019; Vertonghen & Theeboom, 2010). The aim of this qualitative study is to develop a clearer understanding of how martial arts (MA) influences women’s perceived psychological well-being. Using semi-structured interviews, this study captures the stories and experiences of eleven women who practise MA. Through thematic analysis (Braun & Clarke, 2021), four themes can be distinguished. Firstly, increased self-confidence. Secondly, increased self-acceptance, particularly with regards to women accepting their body image and identity. Thirdly, positive development in relationships with immediate family. Lastly, an increased sense of belonging through mostly gendered and multigenerational friendships. Negative experiences with men within the MA training environment posed a threat. Some women feel indifferent about gender in MA, but many report negative experiences with men posed a threat to the benefits MA has on women’s well-being.
Reprezentacija zgodovine v daljši slovenski mladinski prozi: od literarne invencije tradicije do učenja iz različnosti in kritičnega »branja« govoric
Authors: Zorman Barbara
Published: January 2025

V članku preučujem razvoj daljše slovenske zgodovinske mladinske proze. Pri raziskovanju protobesedil slovenskega mladinskega zgodovinskega leposlovja, predvsem Finžgarjevega Pod Svobodnim soncem ter Jalnovih Bobrov, se navezujem na koncept izumljene tradicije (Hobsbawm) oziroma soobstoja različnih vrst kulturnega spomina (Rigney). Zgodnji primerki tega žanra, ki so se prek uvrstitve v posebne zbirke (npr. Zlata knjiga) in posredniških diskurzov (spremne besede) vzpostavili kot mladinska besedila, so na podlagi zgodovinskih virov ustvarili zgodbeni okvir tradicije porajajoče se nacionalne skupnosti, ki je bila zaradi politične podrejenosti dotlej izpuščena iz uradnih spominskih praks. »Izumljeni« narativni okvir predstavlja podobo suverenega, junaškega ljudstva in prek ideje o rodovni kontinuiteti naroda spodbuja patriotizem. Sodobne zgodovinske serije I. Karlovška in S. Preglja se – tokrat s (kolektivnim) otroškim protagonistom – navezujejo na protobesedila, jih dopolnjujejo z najnovejšimi arheološkimi dognanji, kritičnim motrenjem zgodovinskih praks in vrednoto patriotizma dopolnjujejo z medkulturnim dialogom.
Preschool Teachers’ Attitudes Towards Slovenian as a Second Language
Authors: Skubic Darija
Published: January 2025

The article presents the attitudes of preschool teachers and preschool teachers’ assistants towards the acquisition of Slovenian as a second language in kindergarten. The results of a survey of 458 preschool teachers and preschool teachers’ assistants from randomly selected kindergartens in Slovenia show that teachers and teaching assistants agree with the statement that a bilingual or multilingual child changes/switches language according to the language of his or her interlocutor in a given situation (M = 3.96, SD = 0.74). The statement that it makes sense to send parents whose first language is not Slovenian recordings of songs or fairy tales in Slovenian so that they can play them to their children at home and thus help the children to learn the Slovenian language more quickly is also rated highly (M = 3.83, SD = 0.93).
Literarni prostor v izbranih mladinskih delih Branke Jurca
Authors: Tucovič Sturman Vladka
Published: January 2025

V letu 2024 je minilo 110 let od rojstva pisateljice Branke Jurca, ki se je rodila 24. maja 1914 v Koprivi na Krasu, umrla pa 6. marca 1999 v Ljubljani in je napisala več kot 30 del mladinske književnosti. Še vedno se ponatiskujeta njen mladinski roman Ko zorijo jagode (1974) in sodobna pravljica Snežaki v vrtcu (1983). V biografskem smislu njeno življenjsko pot zaznamujejo trije prostori: rojstvo na Krasu v letu začetka prve svetovne vojne, otroštvo, mladost in prva delovna leta učiteljice na Štajerskem med obema vojnama ter zrela, odrasla doba po drugi svetovni vojni v Ljubljani. V prispevku so z metodologijo prostorske literarne vede predstavljeni odgovori na raziskovalno vprašanje, kakšen je odsev realnega prostora v njeni mladinski književnosti, še zlasti avtobiografski kratki prozi Rodiš se samo enkrat (1972), avanturističnih pripovedih Uhač in njegova druščina (1963) in Vohljači in prepovedane skrivnosti (1966) ter mladinskem romanu Ko zorijo jagode (1974).
Silenciamento e efeitos de sucesso midiático: os dizeres de MC Pipokinha sobre uma professora
Authors: Nascimento Isabella Cristina Morais do , Soares Thiago Barbosa , Boucher Damião Francisco
Published: January 2025

Este artigo analisa o discurso do sucesso midiático nos dizeres de MC Pipokinha procurando responder como os efeitos de sucesso constituem as relações de força e, por conseguinte, as formações imaginárias sobre o sujeito de sucesso e sobre o professor. Com o referencial teórico-metodológico da Análise do Discurso, sobretudo as noções de relações de força e de formações imaginárias, entre outras de igual valor, busca-se também responder em que medida as projeções do sucesso materializam a luta de classes, bem como a aparente dissolução de uma alta cultura e uma baixa cultura na sociedade contemporânea. Para tal empreendimento, utiliza-se como corpus os dizeres midiáticos, em filigrana, sobre MC Pipokinha a partir de uma resposta dada a um fã em um vídeo no Instagram, veiculado no dia 6 de março. Além disso, o estudo explora o impacto das plataformas digitais e redes sociais na propagação do discurso da MC Pipokinha. Ao final, busca-se refletir sobre o papel da cantora como uma figura pública que não apenas reflete, mas também refrata a projeção das formações imaginárias acerca do sujeito de sucesso.

The collection of photographs “The working class in the 19th and 20th century” located in the science archive at the Institute of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology of the University of Łódź has been transferred to a digital repository. Having been for various reasons removed from private albums and from their owners, these photographs are an element of cultural heritage, rooted in the past and referring to the history of a concrete milieu (the working class). They are considered to be worth preserving and passing on to future generations as part of cultural heritage. My article describes how the status of these photographs was changing, and presents initiatives and actions that centred on this collection or referred to it, and that contributed to the evolution of its historical value.
O góralskim humorze
Authors: Mlekodaj Anna
Published: January 2025

The article begins with a short presentation of the state of research regarding humor and comedy. Humor is the process which activates subjects and discusses social functions. Next, past and present theories on the topic of comedy (the comedic effect) created, for example, by philosophers and psychologists are characterized. They all emphatically confirm that the conditions for the existence of comedic word are through the recipient’s ability to perceive comedy. The second part of the article is dedicated to the analysis of humor mechanisms in dialectical texts from the Podtatrza region. The highlander’s previous sense of humor came through songs, classified by researchers (Sadownik) as comedy. The most frequent mechanism of humor in these works was touching on taboo topics, justified through concrete give-and-take situations. Furthermore, the article is dedicated to the analysis of the appearance of humor in the poetry of Wanda Czubernatowa, Zdzisław Barglik, in the stories of Sabała, the tales of Andrzej Skupień Florek, Józef Pitorak, Józef Pitoń and Irena Grobarczyk (in Orawa). The proposals illustrate the important role of dialect in building comedy even though as compared to the Polish language, it is limited in terms of linguistic wit. The author sees the cause of this in the drop in use of the regional dialect which, in the long run, contains two advantages in building humor: conciseness and accuracy.
Tajemnicza roślina kinara, a zatem o antycznych karczochach i kardach
Authors: Kokoszko Maciej , Jagusiak Krzysztof , Rzeźnicka Zofia
Published: January 2025

The article focuses of the history, dietetic, culinary and medical applications of the plant which was called kínara in Greek. The analyzed data suggest that the above-mentioned edible was a wild-growing thistle classified by ancient scholarship as a vegetable belonging in the class of akanthóde, i.e. thorny plants. Usually it was eaten by rural population, profited from especially in the time of hunger as emergency food (and that is why it was salted to provide supply kept to meet such hardships) but our sources also indicate that it was a gourmet’s choice (which is attested to by recipes in De re coquinaria). It was not highly evaluated by ancient and early Byzantine dietetics (from Galen of Paul of Aegina) and played a marginal role as medication. The plant was domesticated as late as between the IXth and the XIth century by Arab gardeners to evolve into the modern day artichokes and cards.
O budownictwie nie tylko przemysłowym
Authors: Kajzer Leszek
Published: January 2025

A significant part of youthful professional activity of the learned Addressee of this volume, Mr Władysław Baranowski, called Sławek by friends, was connected with working on and writing subsequent journals of series entitled “Catalogue of Landmarked Buildings of Industrial Construction in Poland”. The initiative of registering theses objects and publishing their catalogues emerged in the mid 1950s of the 20th century among scientists who deal with the broadly defined history of material culture as well as the history and ethnography which then as a result of disappearance of a traditional image of the Polish countryside started its movement towards ethnology. A few years earlier the Institute of the History of Material Culture of the Polish Academy of Sciences was established in Warsaw and it was a scientific unit of basic importance for archeologists and ethnographers as well as historians who love historic processes and objects more than dates, battles, dead bodies and blood that is shed from traditional history schoolbooks.

Published: January 2025

La rápida evolución tecnológica y la adopción de metodologías innovadoras están transformando el panorama educativo, afectando tanto a estudiantes como a docentes. Este artículo busca aportar al conocimiento existente sobre la integración de tecnologías en la formación docente, centrándose en el diseño de un modelo de capacitación para educadores basado en el marco TPACK (Knowledge Technological Pedagogical Content). El modelo propuesto tiene como objetivo optimizar el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje, mejorando la preparación, ejecución y evaluación educativa mediante el uso de recursos tecnológicos. La investigación emplea un enfoque cuantitativo de tipo empírico-analítico, estructurado en dos fases: en la primera, se realiza una revisión sistemática de la literatura para identificar conceptos clave; en la segunda, se evalúan los métodos encontrados, contextualizándolos dentro del marco TPACK y delineando un flujo modular de formación. De los 90 artículos analizados, se seleccionaron 19 que abordan el uso de la tecnología para innovar la enseñanza, lo que permitió construir un mapa conceptual con herramientas digitales que apoyan la labor docente en diversas fases de la enseñanza. Los resultados indican que un 74 % de los docentes valora positivamente la incorporación de tecnologías dentro del marco TPACK, lo que refuerza su viabilidad en la práctica educativa. Finalmente, se identifican áreas de mejora en la capacitación docente y se proponen ajustes clave, como la inclusión de nuevas herramientas, para fortalecer la implementación del modelo y los principios de la ingeniería educativa.

Published: January 2025

Allyl chloride is typically used to make intermediates for downstream derivatives such as resins and polymers, and in the production of epichlorohydrin. The present work describes the simulation and conceptual design of an allyl chloride production process via the propylene chlorination route in ChemCADÒ simulator, to know the mass and energy balances of the intermediate and final streams, the operating and design parameters of some equipment, and other results of interest. The production process consists of a fired heater, a fluidized bed reactor, a waste heat boiler, six shell and tube heat exchangers, two compressors, a gas-liquid absorber and four distillation columns. About 1.336,307 kg/h of allyl chloride are produced at the distillate of the last distillation column with a purity of 99,92%, while pure propylene, 2-chloropropene and an aqueous solution of HCl 32,4 wt. % are also obtained as byproducts. A first-of-its-kind simulation model was obtained in ChemCADÒ, which could be employed for further optimization studies and productivity increment analysis.
La fórmula del suspenso.....

...consiste en no ocultar lo evidente y a pesar de ello desatar la sorpresa. El espectador admite el engaño y renueva la confianza en el director, quien a estas alturas se revela como un mago de la narración. Mejor aún: burla sin cortapisas la censura y dicta una clase maestra de ritmo cinematográfico. En el colmo de la prestidigitación, se da maña para evidenciar su sello al anteponer su nombre al título de la película o cuando aparece en pantalla en el momento menos esperado, como si fuera parte de la puesta en escena que construye. Ese es el arte de Alfred Hitchcock, a quien dedicamos el dossier de la presente edición de CineScrúpulos, plagada además de otros momentos interesantes.
EPAGOGIJA I PROBLEM RELACIONIZMA U PLATONOVOM HIPIJI VEĆEM
Authors: DRAŠKIĆ VIĆANOVIĆ IVA
Published: January 2025

Tema teksta je koncepcija lepote u Platonovom Hipiji Većem. Autor analizira sve definicije lepote koje su ponuđene u dijalogu i kao ključnu metodu prepoznaje epagogiju koja se odvija u dva smera: prvi – kroz predmete, objektivno i stiže do prikladnosti (prepon) kao određenja lepote, što podrazumeva relaciju prema svrsi, dakle relacionizam, a samim tim, u Platonovom misaonom sistemu i relativizam; drugi smer epagogije je ka subjektivnoj svesti, odakle proizlazi definicija lepote kao onoga što donosi zadovoljstvo čulima, što opet znači uspostavljanje relacije, ovog puta prema čovekovoj čulnosti, odnosno svesti; Relacionizam se pojavljuje ponovo implicirajući opet, neizbežno, relativizam. Prema autorovom mišljenju, upravo to je razlog Platonovog odustajanja – kada je lepota u pitanju – od  načina istraživanja i metodskog postupka preduzetog u ovom njegovom ranom dijalogu.
ONTOLOGIZACIJA BROJEVA
Authors: KALUĐEROVIĆ ŽELJKO
Published: January 2025

Autor u članku skicira osnovne parametre pitagorejske doktrine izložene u Aristotelovom corpus-u, posebno onaj njen deo koji govori da su „bića brojevi”, ili da ona „oponašaju” (mimesis) ili „reprezentuju” brojeve, pa do toga da su italski mislioci „pretpostavili da su elementi brojeva i elementi svih bića, te da je celo nebo harmonia i broj”. Razmatranje slojevitog pitagorejskog učenja pokazalo je da glavni stav njihove filozofije predstavlja teza da je broj bivstvo svih stvari. Interpretiranje i situiranje pitagorejskih postulata u tekstu provedeno je potom iz perspektive Stagiraninove kauzalne shematike, uz dva pitanja koja su se nametala: sa koliko uzroka su „operisaliˮ pitagorejci i o kojim uzrocima je reč? Autor, najpre smatra da su pitagorejci bili jedini od preparmenidovskih filozofa koji su u svom radu „baratali” sa dva uzroka. I zatim, dva uzroka kojim su se služili pitagorejci jesu materijalni i formalni uzrok. Na osnovu Aristotelovih beleški, konačno, može se zaključiti da oni daju primat formalnom uzroku u odnosu na, do tada neprikosnoveni, materijalni uzrok.

The focus of this research to analyzing patterns of  the purpose of this study is to identify and analyze the patterns of assonance and alliteration in Q.S. At-Takwir, to understand how these phonological elements contribute to the aesthetic beauty and strengthen the meaning of the theological message contained in the surah. The research method used is a qualitative approach with a descriptive-analytical method. The data in this study are in the form of the text of Q.S. At-Takwir from the Qur'an. The stages of data analysis include data collection, identification and categorization, phonological analysis, data interpretation, drawing conclusions, and data validation. The results show that assonance creates a deep emotional atmosphere and strengthens the message, while alliteration adds rhythm, deepening the dramatic effect. Assonance and alliteration in Q.S. At-Takwir play an important role in beautifying the text, building rhythm, and strengthening the theology of the message, indicating that these phonological elements function more than just aesthetics, but as a means of conveying a deep spiritual message.
Teaching About and For Social Justice
Authors: Robertson Joanne , Sivia Awneet
Published: January 2025

Teaching for social justice is an explicit goal of most teacher education programs. However, this mandate has been criticized by scholars who claim that social justice is an undertheorized and vague concept that is often disconnected from methods courses that focus on content-specific pedagogies. This study seeks to address this disconnect by exploring how an Equity Literature Circles (ELC) framework within a literacy methods course can enhance teacher candidates’ (TCs’) understanding of the relationship between literacy instruction, diversity, and social justice. Drawing on the perceptions of ten TCs enrolled in a teacher education program in western Canada, data for the study was generated from classroom artifacts, an individual survey, and a focus group interview. Upon analysis of the data, the findings suggest that an ELC framework is an effective instructional strategy for enhancing TCs’ understanding of intersecting aspects of diversity, equity-focused literacy instruction, and teaching about and for social justice.

Authors: Lavoie Constance , Laurent Angélique , Ouellet Élizabelle , Letarte Marie-Josée , Lemelin Jean-Pascal
Published: January 2025

La causerie est un contexte d'apprentissage fréquemment proposé à l’éducation préscolaire. Cette étude décrit les pratiques de 11 enseignantes à l’éducation préscolaire 4 ans durant la causerie. Trente causeries ont été filmées et analysées. Les résultats ont montré que l’enseignante et les enfants s'assoyaient en cercle et la causerie était principalement gérée par l'enseignante. Le sujet est choisi par l'enseignante et portait généralement sur des expériences personnelles des enfants. Les rétroactions se rapportaient beaucoup aux idées énoncées par les enfants et peu concernaient la phonologie, la syntaxe ou le vocabulaire.
"Ele está matando os deuses"
Authors: Abreu Clara Habib de Salles
Published: January 2025

Este artigo investiga as fontes escritas e representações visuais da iconoclastia de Abraão, uma história explorada, principalmente, pelo Judaísmo e pelo Islamismo. A iconografia esparsa ao longo dos séculos e territórios reflete o contexto cultural de cada tradição, mas converge em enfatizar a supremacia do monoteísmo sobre a idolatria e o valor didático da narrativa para diferentes comunidades. O estudo, portanto, destaca a importância pedagógica atribuída a essa passagem ao longo dos séculos.

This sugar has a low glycemic index ranging from 35 to 44, making it a healthier alternative to granulated sugar. The nutritional content of crystal coconut sugar, including minerals, vitamin B and C, and antioxidants, provides various health benefits. These benefits include maintaining the body’s electrolyte balance, strengthening the immune system, preventing anemia, and supporting energy metabolism. The low glycemic index makes crystal coconut sugar safe for diabetics, as it does not cause sharp spikes in blood sugar levels. The demand for crystal coconut sugar is rising due to the influence of healthy lifestyles and increased awareness of environmentally friendly products. Indonesia holds significant potential to become a leading supplier of crystal coconut sugar in the global market. The crystal coconut sugar industry in Banyumas Regency, Central Java, has evolved into a thriving export commodity with a substantial market share. This highlights the promising opportunities for crystal coconut sugar as a key export product.

Malnutrisi adalah kekurangan atau kelebihan asupan, ketidakseimbangan maupun gangguan pemanfaatan nutrien atau zat gizi. Beban ganda malnutrisi terdiri atas gizi kurang maupun gizi lebih. Berdasarkan laporan data dari Puskesmas kembaran I tahun 2023, jumlah anak malnutrisi di desa Linggasari yang merupakan Desa Binaan FK UNSOED masih cukup tinggi. Jumlah balita gizi kurang (stunting) sebanyak 28 anak, 25 anak berperawakan pendek dan 3 anak berperawakan sangat pendek. Sementara gizi lebih berjumlah 12 anak, 8 anak overweight dan 4 anak obesitas. Salah satu upaya untuk mencegah malnutrisi pada balita adalah dengan cara menyiapkan MPASI dengan tepat dan gizi seimbang. Bentuk utama kegiatan ini adalah edukasi/ penyuluhan dengan metode ceramah. Khalayak sasaran yaitu para kader posyandu. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan nilai post-test (78,61) lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan nilai pre-test (65,28) atau terjadi peningkatan pengetahuan sebesar 13,33%. Hasil analisis uji Wilcoxon menunjukkan terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan antara pengetahuan peserta sebelum dan sesudah edukasi (p= 0,000). Para kader posyandu sebagai perantara pelayanan kesehatan di desa diharapkan dapat mentransfer ilmu yang telah diperoleh kepada ibu-ibu balita.
