Discusiones en torno a la educación física entre co-aprendices de un profesorado de educación física
Authors: Trueba Sebastián , Damborearena Sol Bella , Smith María Luz
Published: January 2025

El presente ensayo recupera algunas de las discusiones surgidas entre los tres autores de este texto a lo largo de la cursada de una materia correspondiente al cuarto año del profesorado de educación física. Se exploran algunas concepciones de educación física y se tensionan con diferentes posicionamientos teóricos, habilitando así un recorrido que explora un amplio espectro conceptual. De esta manera, se considera que el presente texto puede resultar en un aporte a las epistemologías de la educación física al tiempo que devela formas más horizontales de construir conocimiento que tensionan las ideas clásicas de investigar y presentar lo producido. Los singulares sentidos de corporeidad y motricidad que se manifiestan en el texto tienen la particularidad de ser planteadas desde el campo educativo y no supeditadas a la filosofía u otras disciplinas, lo que posibilita una visión original e irreverente de los temas abordados que, a su vez, intentan alternar las condiciones de autoridad en el campo investigativo contemporáneo.

Authors: Pinto Adriel Silva , Castro Júnior Edson Bernardino de , Oliveira Lorena Camilo de , Guerra Raissa de Sousa , Gonçalves Alexandre , Lopes Leandro Teixeira Paranhos , Zanetti Hugo Ribeiro
Published: January 2025

Introdução: Estudos afirmam que há uma escassez de conhecimento e de ações da medicina sobre lesões em ciclistas. Devido ao aumento de praticantes desse esporte, torna-se essencial ampliar os estudos sobre tal fenômeno. Objetivo: Analisar a prevalência de lesões osteomioarticulares, bem como os fatores contribuintes em praticantes de ciclismo, comparando praticantes recreacionais e atletas em relação a características demográficas, frequência e tempo de treino, bem como ao uso de equipamentos de proteção individual (EPIs). Método: Foi utilizado um questionário para avaliar 132 ciclistas, divididos por faixa etária, entre atividades recreacionais e atletas, investigando quais as lesões mais prevalentes, o grupo mais vulnerável a essas e os fatores de risco para tal. Resultados: Neste estudo constatou-se uma maior prevalência de lesões no joelho tanto entre os atletas quanto entre os recreacionais, sendo que os dois principais fatores desencadeantes para a ocorrência das lesões foram os perigos externos e a negligência. A maior prevalência de lesões nos joelhos corrobora com diversos estudos, principalmente em profissionais, chegando a 62%, sendo que 17% tiveram que descontinuar a atividade. Conclusão: Verifica-se, portanto, que, de acordo com os resultados obtidos, a maior ocorrência de lesões é no grupo de ciclistas recreacionais quando se compara com atletas, sendo a maioria destas lesões sem qualquer fator desencadeante durante a prática da atividade física. Ademais, no geral, o joelho é o local de maior acometimento devido a negligência e perigos externos, seja em atletas ou em ciclistas recreacionais.
Илюзорният свят на филма в чуждоезиковото обучение по немски език
Authors:   Konstantin Preslavsky University of Shumen, Iliyazova Aylya
Published: January 2025

The role of the film in German foreign language learning is examined in this study from three different perspectives: language learning (sprachbezozenes Lernen), (inter)cultural learning (kulturbezozenes Lernen), and media learning (medienbezozenes Lernen). The three layers, in turn, are stratified through the following specifics of the film and the expected results in learning German as a foreign language: 1. The film contributes to the formation and development of the fifth skill, das Hör-Seh-Verstehen 2. It provokes personal reactions, emotions, and positions. 3. The film is an authentic cultural product. 4. It offers authentic language examples (dialects, language variants, etc.). 5. It offers communicative situations (from professional fields, everyday communication, different layers of society, etc.). 6. It develops media competence. 7. It contributes to the process of intercultural learning by stimulating the formation of intercultural competence and the skill of “change of perspective”. 8. The film shows reality through the focus of country information (landeskundliche Realität). 9. Moreover, the film presents examples of “body
language” in culturally specific communicative situations (compensatory competence). Several main conclusions can be drawn: a large number of exercises contribute to the development of both strategic and compensatory competence. The specific strategy of “Knowing” is also embedded in the concepts of the authors of the reviewed teaching systems, aimed at developing the skill of looking and listening comprehension. When working on the films, four thematic areas were identified in the German as a foreign language teaching systems: Sprache (Language), Beruf/ Arbeit (Occupation/Work),
Umwelt (Environment) and Musik (Music). Films in all three learning systems provoke a personal position.
Constructing Identity between Illusion and Reality in Maxine Hong Kingston’s The Woman Warrior
Authors:   “Vasile Alecsandri” University of Bacău, Romania, Donici Raluca-Andreea
Published: January 2025

This paper explores the process of identity construction in Maxine Hong
Kingston’s novel, “The Woman Warrior”, insisting upon instruments and literary tools, such
as illusions, temporal innovation and persuasive strategies. In close relation to the central
theme of the novel – the issue of identity and its development from a young age, in relation
to one’s cultural heritage – this research focuses on the existence of illusions, as well as the
way in which these are employed or combined with other techniques, in order to achieve the
final goal of creating identity. The article analyses structures from the novel from different
perspectives (literary, stylistic, temporal, persuasive) and the findings have shown that
the recurrence of literary illusions, shaped from the effective combination of reality, myth
and personal insights, creates the proper environment for self-reference construction and
identity assimilation. In this respect, the usage of literary symbols and motifs, all gravitating
around the concept of the woman warrior, is strongly connected to the Chinese society’s
principles and perspective towards women and their behaviour. Additionally, different
aspects from the novel, such as the narrative and the poetic ones, are completed by the
descriptive discourse. This strategy gives a faithful image of the foreground, stimulating the
readers’ imagination and sense of creativity. As a result, this paper observed that the novel
written by Kingston constructed a testimony of oneself though the power of storytelling.
This technique enlarged the topic of the book, creating a means of constructing identity and
reclaiming agency for the female characters, as well as for the author herself.
Илюзиите на любовта в пиесите на Пиер Мариво: социални контексти
Authors:   Konstantin Preslavsky University of Shumen, Стоименова Бисерка
Published: January 2025

The article intends to follow the homological correlation between the images
of love during the formation of loving sociability in Pierre Marivaux’s comedies “The
Double Inconsistency” and “The Triumph of Love” and socioeconomical changes in France
during the first 20 years of 18th century. In the focus of the study appears the influence of
transformational processes in the understanding of real and illusive value as a result of
financial turmoil of John Law’s economical system and its impact upon social relationships.
Hence, the socioeconomical atmosphere in France during the period of Regency is depicted
in detail as a historical context of large-scale changes in understanding the value of love,
manipulation of characters, profit and loss in love. Using the tools of the new historical
critics, the article offers a survey of the two comedies by Pierre Marivaux as a trajectory
of real and illusive relationship in the economy of love exchange in the context of radical
sensible-semiotic transformation. The embodiment of love sociability in Pierre Marivaux’s
comedies “The Double Inconsistency” and “The Triumph of Love” illustrate different forms
of love exchange, in which real and illusory value, security and risk, winning and losing
in love consistently interact. In “The Double Inconsistency” Marivaux builds a literary
representation of a mechanism in which the renunciation of the absolute value of moral
values such as unconditional love and real goods can be freely and safely transformed into
a newly acquired absolute value of new love and a series of symbolic goods – prestige, noble
status, wealth. In the comedy “The Triumph of Love” this process is complicated by the
division of the characters into winners and losers, disappointed and rewarded. The study
summarizes the role of Marivaux’s comedies and their influence upon social imagination.

Authors: ЯЦЕНКО Володимир Сергійович
Published: January 2025

The materials of the report are devoted to the problems of applying the research method in the educational process of the New Ukrainian School (NUS). The definition of what research is, its purpose, common and distinctive features as a method of teaching natural sciences (physics, chemistry, biology, geography) is given. The main method and form of research in the natural sciences is the observation of natural processes, the organization of experimental activities of schoolchildren, including the conduct of experiments, laboratory, practical and independent work by students. Special research methods include cartographic research, where students can use a map to study an object, measure, calculate, and graphically construct generalized research results. In the educational process of the National 11th edition International Scientific-Practical Conference ”Training by research for a prosperous society” 324 Academy of Sciences, monitoring and historical research methods are also used, where not only certain ecological systems are observed, but also the object in development is studied. The modeling method remains special but rarely used. As a rule, in educational practice, it is implemented in the creation of materialistic models, computer or cartographic models using GIS technologies. In general, the main goal of introducing research methods and forms into the educational process of NUS is to teach students to apply the acquired knowledge in practice. For teachers of natural sciences, the scheme "How to generalize the experience of your research work" is proposed, so that each teacher gains practical experience in the application of methods and forms of research in institutions of general secondary education.

Authors: ONICA Marina , MELENTIEV Eugenia
Published: January 2025

Interdisciplinary tasks with practical significance are the main method of combining knowledge from various disciplines and forming a holistic picture of the world. The paradigm of the educational system of the 21st century requires a person-oriented approach, and the highest result of educational activities is the formation of a competent personality adapted to life in the modern world. We are often faced with a lack of understanding of the importance of the Chemistry; students consider this subject to be complex and unnecessary in everyday life, the reason for this is the ignorance of the areas of application of Chemistry. The article considers some tasks that contribute to the development of cognitive interest in Chemistry, the formation of transversal competencies, and the subject actualization. Most teachers face the difficulty of developing tasks that meet the criteria above. Meanwhile, students need methods to develop their ability to learn and find answers and solutions. Interdisciplinary tasks with practical significance contribute to the achievement of the most important goal of education - to teach how to learn, also answering the main question of every student “what for?”
What can educators do to accommodate twice-exceptional learners in Lebanon: a case study
Authors: Alameddine Mira Mounir
Published: January 2025

An inclusive classroom accommodates learners with learning disabilities (LDs) or gifted learners (GLs). As part of the 1997 curriculum reform, Lebanon recognized one type of these learners-the LD. It provided the LD community with well-deserved support and the opportunity to be included in regular classroom settings, but nothing was done for the GL community. There has been an increase in interest in GL in Lebanon in recent years. Some private schools made a few attempts to accommodate GL. Two-exceptional learners (2e): those who are gifted and have at least one learning disability, were not catered for in these attempts. Schools and teachers are not equipped to handle the unique challenges faced by 2e learners. Consequently, these learners may experience anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and even behavioral problems. This paper presents the plan developed for a 2e learner (Khalil) that addressed his interests. Khalil had learning difficulties in reading and writing as well as giftedness in math, especially numerical math. Being 2e, Khalil received special lessons that made use of his math skills to improve his language arts. These lessons were project-based, which assisted Khalil in enhancing his mathematical talents while developing his writing and comprehension skills.

Authors: Lyubimtsev V. , Kholodkevich S. , Adamovich B. , Khotyanovitch Yu. , Chuyko G.
Published: January 2025

The response of the cardiac system of the freshwater bivalve Unio tumidus to hypoxic and salt functional loads depending on the trophic status of its habitat was studied by measuring the heart rate (HR). Using the example of two of its populations inhabiting the littoral zone of the oligo-mesotrophic Lake Naroch and the eutrophic Lake Batorino (Republic of Belarus), it was shown that under both studied stress effects, the values of some HR indicators demonstrate a pronounced tendency to increase, others to decrease with an increase in the trophic state of the lake, and some remain unchanged. The identified features should be taken into account when using HR indicators to assess the ecotoxicological state of water bodies.

O objetivo deste estudo foi compreender as marcas da educação presentes na escrita autobiográfica do diário pessoal do ex-prefeito cuiteense Pedro Simões Pimenta, escrito entre os anos de 1912 e 1986. Trata-se de uma pesquisa autobiográfica, amparada na nova história cultural. Os dados foram obtidos no diário pessoal do autobiografado, publicado sob o título de O Diário de Vovô Pedro. O estudo se concentrou em três perspectivas principais: quem escreve, o que escreve e a relação da escrita com a educação. Evidenciou-se que Pedro Simões Pimenta, nascido em 1896 e falecido em 1989, embora estivesse inserido em um contexto privilegiado para a sua época, experienciou uma alfabetização difícil. Como prefeito de Cuité, na Paraíba, priorizou a educação de seus munícipes, construiu escolas e nomeou professoras. Conclui-se que o diário pessoal, como egodocumento, é uma fonte profícua para a elucidação da trajetória de vida, formação, profissionalização, portando de importância histórica e educacional.
INTEGRATION OF GENOTYPES OF MAIZE (Zea mays L.) AND PLANT POWDERS AGAINST Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky (COLEOPTERA: CURCULIONIDAE)
Authors: Macedo-González José de Jesús , Ortega-Arenas Laura Delia , Rodríguez-Hernández Cesáreo , Espinosa-Calderón Alejandro
Published: January 2025

The objective of this study was to determine the combined effect of maize (Zea mays L.) genotypes with the application of epazote (Dysphania ambrosioides L.), castor oil plant (Ricinus communis L.), Mexican pepperleaf (Piper auritum Kunth), moringa (Moringa oleifera Lam.), neem (Azadirachta indica A. Juss.), and Pacific Coast mahogany (Swietenia humilis Zucc.) as an alternative to control the maize weevil (Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky). It was hypothesized that combining certain maize genotypes with specific plant powders would significantly reduce S. zeamais damage without affecting germination. Three bioassays were conducted. In the first, the biological activity of six plant powders to control weevil populations and their impact on seed germination was evaluated; in the second, the effect of the hardness of three maize hybrids and the “Ancho Pozolero” variety on weevil was determined; and in the third, the interaction between genotypes and the most effective powders was explored. With five replicates per treatment and a control without application, 100 g of maize and 1 % plant powder were placed in 250 mL glass containers using a fully randomized design. Mortality, emergence, insect damage, and maize germination were assessed. In the evaluation of plant powders, D. ambrosioides and S. humilis stood out for their insecticidal and insectistatic effects and protection of maize, although they affected germination by 6.5 and 7.2 %, respectively. P. auritum showed good insecticidal and insectistatic effects without affecting germination. The hybrid “Tlaoli Puma,” classified as hard, reduced the damage caused by S. zeamais by one third. The combination of the hybrid “Tlaoli Puma” with 1 % plant powder of D. ambrosioides or S. humilis reduced the chances of attack and damage by S. zeamais, contributing to reducing post-harvest losses of stored maize and thus validating the hypothesis.

Published: January 2025

Objectives: Through qualitative research using the normative juridical analysis method, strengthened by interviews with criminal law experts who formulated the Indonesian National Criminal Code, research was conducted to find out whether this new law (lex superior) can be applied without clashing with the provisions of a more specific law (lex specialist) that has existed before, and how the provisions of the new law can strengthen the provisions of the norms in the old law, specifically the discussion focuses on the provisions of human smuggling and passport forgery which are newly formulated in the National Criminal Code after previously being regulated in the Immigration Law.
 
Theoretical Framework: After the Dutch colonial occupation, for 78 years the Indonesian state still used the Wetboek van Strafrecht as the law governing criminal law until finally in 2023 Indonesia had a National Criminal Law (National Criminal Code). The National Criminal Code formulates norms regarding human smuggling and passport forgery which were previously formulated in Law Number 6 Year 2011 on Immigration.
 
Method: Interview with a criminal law theory expert, namely a professor of Indonesian criminal law who is also the initiator of the ratification of the New Criminal Code, the interview aims to obtain answers to the problem of the position of the articles on human smuggling and passport forgery in the Immigration Law after the ratification of the New Criminal Code which mentions both articles, based on the principle of lex posterior. The interview also seeks answers to whether there is a conflict between the principles of lex specialis and lex posterior, if any, and in terms of how the conflict occurs.
 
Results and Discussion: The research found that the formulation of the two norms does not contradict each other, and the purpose of the formulation of norms in the National Criminal Code is precisely aimed at strengthening the norms of human smuggling and passport forgery that were previously contained in the Immigration Law.
 
Research Implications: It is hoped that this research will be able to answer doubts about the legitimacy of the formulation of human smuggling and passport forgery in the National Criminal Code as a justification for its formulation in the Immigration Law.

Authors: Muktiyanto Didik , Widagdo Setyo , Istiqomah Milda , Parmawati Rita
Published: January 2025

Objective: This study aims to analyze the optimization of Reserve Components' involvement in supporting disaster management in Indonesia through the perspective of national defense policy. It is based on Law No. 23 of 2019 on the Management of National Resources for National Defense.
 
Theoretical Framework: The theoretical framework of this study is based on Total Defense, emphasizing the mobilization of the Reserve Component to address threats, including disasters. Vasovic et al. (2020) highlight the importance of collective awareness, while Shepherd (2013) demonstrates that the involvement of the Reserve Component strengthens national resilience. The survival spirit theory (Zack, 2023) underscores readiness and rapid response in disaster situations.
 
Method: The research method used is descriptive-qualitative. Data collection is carried out through literature studies, reviewing various legal and policy sources, followed by semi-structured interviews with relevant parties, including officials from the Ministry of Defense, BNPB (National Agency for Disaster Management), as well as experts and practitioners in disaster management.
 
Results and Discussion: The results show that reserve components, consisting of civilians, can play a crucial role in addressing various threats, including disasters. As of 2023, there are 9,012 Reserve Component personnel spread across Indonesia.  However, the involvement of Reserve Components in disaster management has not yet been implemented, as the mobilization focus has been directed toward military and hybrid threats. The study finds that involving the Reserve Components with all their potential can enhance the effectiveness of disaster response, particularly during emergency response phases and aid distribution, by leveraging the synergy between the military (TNI) and the public.
 
Research Implications: This research underscores the need for specific regulations detailing the Reserve Component's role in disaster management, emphasizing the inclusion of disaster response training in their education. It highlights the importance of regular coordination between the Reserve Component, TNI, BNPB, and local governments to enhance national preparedness, ensuring effective mobilization against non-military threats.
 
Originality/Value: This study offers a unique perspective by positioning the Reserve Component as a vital asset in non-military disaster management. Unlike previous research, it explores the integration of military-trained civilians into national disaster response strategies, contributing valuable insights into optimizing defense policies for enhancing resilience and community preparedness in disaster-prone Indonesia.

This study examines these aspects in view of the growing discussion on expanding the rights of the LGBT+ community as well as the used methods and there comparison with similar used by the totalitarian regimes.
 
Results and Discussion: There is a different in form but equal in content comparability between the tools used to impose Queer "equality" with those of the totalitarian regimes of the twentieth century.
A Comparative Assessment of Green Spaces in Residential and Non-Residential Areas in Selected Towns and Cities of the Philippines, Singapore, and New York: Implications for Achieving SDG 11
Authors: Orale Ronald L. , Montecastro Doris B.
Published: January 2025

Introduction: Urban centers are the sites where the fight against climate change can be won or lost. To suceed, carbon footprint arresters like vegetation are essential in attaining sustainable cities and communities (SDG 11).
 
Objective: The objective of this study is to determine practices of the seleted sites in relation to green and open spaces to include vegetative covers.
 
Theoretical Framework: The study is anchored in Sustainable Development Theory with emphasis on evironmental conservation.
 
Method: Conducted 311 virtual and 50 actual observation to determine green space practices. Observation checklist with picture-based score sheet to guide enumerators.
 
Results and Discussion: The vegetative cover in the Philippines is significantly lower when compared to New York and Singapore. Vegetative covers of observation sites for residential and non-residential areas differences are not significant.
 
Research Implications: There is a need to explore why towns and cities in the Philippines have poor green spaces despite the fact that it specifically that Distare Risk and Reduction (DRR) and the Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) are mainstreamed in the Comprehesnive Land Use Planning (CLUP) Process.
 
Originality/Value: The comparison of green spaces in the Philippines, New York and Singapore.

Published: January 2025

This study focuses on evaluating the impacts of agricultural land reclamation and conversion on the livelihoods of households affected by the Thai Nguyen Stadium Project in Phuc Trieu Commune, Thai Nguyen City. The research employed a combination of methods, including information collection through literature review and interviews with households whose agricultural land was reclaimed. Collected data were synthesized to analyze and evaluate the economic conditions of farming households post-reclamation. Statistical analysis and comparative methods were applied to examine changes in key indicators, such as employment and income, before and after the reclamation and conversion of agricultural land in the study area. The findings reveal that the project has had significant impacts on the lives of local residents. Specifically, the reclamation and conversion of agricultural land have altered the labor structure, employment opportunities, and income levels of the affected population. These results provide a basis for proposing necessary measures to enhance the effectiveness of land-use planning and management in the local context.
