Authors: Indah Indah Purnama Sari , Al-Khowarizmi Al-Khowarizmi , MD Pipit Putri Hariani , Perdana Adidtya , Manurung Asrar Aspia
Published: August 2023

One of the nations where land transportation is frequently employed is Indonesia, particularly on motorbikes or two-wheeled vehicles. Since there is not much economic growth to maintain the high level of sales, there are many people without jobs, which leads to criminality, particularly motorcycle theft. The rate of motorbike theft in society is currently rising. The researchers developed a security system using a GPS Tracker whose control was handled by a two-channel relay in response to the rise in motorbike theft. The webcam camera produces the greatest images when it is hidden by a tree. 100% of the time, Relay Components work to control the horn and electricity. Due to the short read-time of the location the first time, GPS has a high accuracy. The Raspberry Pi3 can send, receive, and process commands to the motorcycle security system. The motion sensors, vibration sensors, raspberry pi microcontrollers, relays, and servo motors make up the system architecture in general. This method operates when the motor produces a lot of vibration. The sensor will relay the vibration to the Raspberry Pi microcontroller's output and the microcontroller will then deliver a warning notification message. In the event of a theft, the motorcycle will be immediately within the owner's control. In addition, with security using facedetection, the public can detect the perpetrators of theft and it takes quite a long time to work on it. The security system on motorbikes using facedetection takes a long time to produce, but it can't be done optimally. The purpose of this creation is to improve the security system on motorcycles to make it more efficient and effective in identifying the perpetrators of theft. This system consists of a Raspberry Pi3 as the control center, a picamera as a face detector, and a buzzer as an alarm.

Published: August 2023

Background and Objectives Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is one of the common diseases in otolaryngology, and it is important to know the species of pathogens and antibiotic susceptibility for its appropriate treatment. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections have increased, and pathogenic bacteria and antibiotic resistance are changing along with the inappropriate use and overuse of antibiotics. The aim of this study is to investigate the current bacterial profile and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of CSOM.Subjects and Method We retrospectively investigated the bacteriological results of chronic otitis media with otorrhea in 272 outpatients who visited the department of otolaryngology from January 2017 to July 2022.Results A total of 272 cases were included in the study, of which 245 (90.1%) were diagnosed with CSOM without cholesteatoma and 27 (9.9%) were diagnosed with CSOM with cholesteatoma. Out of the total, 131 (48.2%) were male patients and 141 (51.8%) were female patients with a mean age of 60.0±14.93 years. Microbial growth was observed in 220 (80.9%) samples, but 17 (6.3%) samples showed no growth. Among the samples that showed growth, 184 (67.6%) were monomicrobial and 71 (26.1%) were polymicrobial. A total of 277 isolates were identified. The most common pathogenic organism was MRSA (23.1%), followed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (19.5%), methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (19.1%), and coagulasenegative staphylococci (8.3%). MRSA was highly susceptible to vancomycin, linezolid, teicoplanin (100%), sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim, rifampin (over 96%). P. aeruginosa showed highest susceptibility to ceftazidime (100%), then cefepime (96.3%) and imipenem & amikacin (92.6%), and was most resistant to ticarcillin/clavulanic acid (57.4%) and ciprofloxacin (64.8%).Conclusion Considering the high prevalence of MRSA and Ciprofloxacin-resistant P. aeruginosa, primary empirical antibiotics should be used with caution. Furthermore, periodic surveillance on the etiological agents of CSOM and its antimicrobial susceptibility is needed.

Published: August 2023

Background and Objectives Head and neck cancer can occur as a second primary tumor in patients with a history of hematological malignancy, and the pathological features of those are more aggressive than de novo primary head and neck cancer. However, research related to the prognostic value of hematological markers in the head and neck cancer patients with a history of hematological malignancy is scarce, so we performed this study.Subjects and Method We reviewed a total of 89 head and neck cancer patients with hematological malignancy diagnosed at a single tertiary hospital between 1997 and 2021, and enrolled 29. The analyzed hematological parameters included pre- and post-treatment hemoglobin, hematocrit, lactate dehydrogenase, absolute neturophil count (ANC), absolute platelet count, absolute leukocyte count, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio.Results Hematological malignancy was diagnosed almost 62.14±96.10 months before head and neck cancer. The most common hematological malignancy was acute myeloid leukemia. The overall survival (OS) rate was lower in patients with second primary tumor than in those with de novo primary head and neck cancer. The cox-proportional hazard ratio analysis showed that the post-treatment absolute neutrophil count was significantly correlated with disease-free survival but not with OS.Conclusion The post-treatment hematological profile, particularly ANC, can be considered a useful prognostic marker in the head and neck cancer patients with a history of hematological malignancy.
Inside Out and Think Tank Participation in Australia: Can Engaging with Lived Experience of Incarceration Promote Desistance?
Authors: Antojado Dwayne , Martinovic Marietta , A'Vard Tarmi , Stringer Grace , Barnes Chelsea
Published: August 2023

The recognition of lived experience as an invaluable resource for reform and program development in criminal justice has seen a positive shift in recent years. Unexamined, or at least unarticulated, is the value that this inclusion of lived experience could have in efforts toward desistance. This article suggests the Inside Out Prison Exchange Program and the associated prison and community-based Think Tanks established in Victoria, Australia, can be more than a place for advocacy, but indeed a motivator for desistance among participants. Through a discussion of desistance theory, this paper outlines how these programs can promote desistance efforts as a result of their voluntary nature and continuity during and after incarceration. In these spaces, incarcerated individuals are given opportunities to engage with community members, contribute in prosocial capacities, and gain significant knowledge and skills surrounding criminal justice reform. This meaningful educational environment is one which can foster self-determination, non-offender identity development, and community connection, all of which are significant factors in the journey of desistance.
Argentine Chaotic Term Length Series in an American Historical Context
Authors: Felice Carmelo , Ruiz Gabriel Alfredo
Published: August 2023

The political stability of a government system is crucial for achieving social, economic, and cultural growth of a people. Among other things, political stability depends on the norms that come from a state of rights. Several metrics have been proposed to measure political stability, such as the weighted sum of the number of revolutions or the index defined by the World Bank comprising 72 variables, which include subjective concepts, numerical parameters, and other variables. Therefore, it must be applied carefully to individual countries or to compare countries. No definitions in the related literature directly consider cultural factors and are limited to quantifying their practical effects, such as numbers of strikes or manifestations against a government. Concepts such as contempt for authority have not been directly quantified. In this part, we present two more indicators that account for the contempt for authority and permit a rapid quantitative and visual analysis of the political stability of a country or province throughout its history. They are, the social stability index that allows the general quantification of the social stability level at a historical moment, and the phase planes that graphically show the predominant chaotic system. These tools manifest the behavior patterns that affect the political stability of a country or province. Finally, we perform an in-depth analysis of the indicators for the Republic of Argentina between the 16th and 21st centuries, with the historical context of the more important Spanish and British colonization of the American continent. The results indicate 1) the permanence of socially toxic behavior patterns in Argentina and other Latin American countries, 2) inherited cultural causes could explain the high political instability in Argentina over the last 500 years and 3) a succession of singles term length by rulers during decades could be used to stabilize a country.
Payout Flexibility and Firm Innovation
Authors: Khan Sharier Azim
Published: August 2023

This paper investigates how flexibility in payout decisions affects firm innovation. Firms that make payout mainly in the form of share repurchase have greater flexibility in making payouts compared to firms that make payout mainly in the form of dividends. Using a sample of 45,644 firm-year observations of 7,888 U.S. firms for the period 1987-2010, I show that firms with greater payout flexibility have higher levels of innovation and have better quality innovations. Using a Granger Causality framework, I show that firm innovation has no significant effect on payout flexibility while payout flexibility results in firm innovation. Results show that firms that make payout in the form of repurchase only, on an average, have 4.4% more patents granted compared to firms that make payout in the form of dividend only. The results are robust to whether I use the entire sample or a sub-sample of observations of firms with at least one patent granted during the sample period.
The Impact of Information Uncertainty on Stock Performance During the 2008-2009 Financial Crisis
Authors: Allen Arthur , Zhang Wei
Published: August 2023

We investigate the impact of information uncertainty on stock performance during the 2008-2009 financial crisis. We document that firms with more information uncertainty suffered a greater stock price drop during the period of market-wide price declines. In contrast, the negative effect of information uncertainty on stock returns was absent during the market-reversal or pseudo-drop period. In addition, during the reversal period, firms with forecast dispersion in the top tercile (or quartile) had more positive returns than those with lower forecast dispersion. We contribute to the literature by testing the relationship between information uncertainty and firm returns in the special setting of the most recent financial crisis and providing initial evidence that firm-specific information uncertainty amplified stock price fluctuations during the financial crisis.

Authors: Rossignolo Isadora Rodrigues , Soares Marcos Hirata , Oliveira Katya Luciane de
Published: August 2023

This study investigated whether religious coping and suicidal ideation act as a predictive model for suicide attempts. This is a descriptive study, with survey and correlational delineation, carried out in southern Brazil, with 260 adults, from October 2020 to June 2021. Logistic regression analysis was used, through the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software, v. 28. The dichotomous outcome variable was the suicide attempt, and the independent variables were the named Total Negative Coping (NSRC-TOTAL) score. The suicide attempt as an outcome and the other variables performing as predictive configured a higher sensitivity (96.8%) compared to the previous models. As the NSRC-TOTAL score was increased by 1 unit, there was also an increase in the chances of suicide attempting by 1.83 times (95% CI 1.11;3.00). It was discussed that religiosity has a positive impact on suicidal behavior, as it provides well-being/happiness, especially for those with mental disorders.

Desafíos del cambio climático en la práctica veterinaria. Una revisión bibliográfica
Authors: Rivadeneira Barreiro Pilar
Published: August 2023

Esta investigación aborda la pregunta: ¿Qué desafíos representa el cambio climático en el campo de la práctica veterinaria? Abordar esta problemática es importante porque refleja una conexión crítica entre la salud animal y la sostenibilidad del medio ambiente. La revisión de la literatura implicó una búsqueda en la base de datos de la colección principal de Web of Science de publicaciones relacionadas con el cambio climático y la práctica veterinaria y una búsqueda extendida en Google Scholar enfocada en América Latina, resultando en cerca de 400 manuscritos. La mayoría de la literatura está concentrada en países desarrollados, mientras que hay una escasez de investigaciones en países en desarrollo. El volumen de manuscritos sobre este tema creció hasta 2021, pero desde entonces ha comenzado a declinar. Los hallazgos indican una necesidad apremiante de investigación en países en desarrollo, pero también en formas de involucrar la práctica veterinaria en la administración del cambio climático. Además, se recomienda incluir material sobre el cambio climático en el currículo de los programas de veterinaria. La futura investigación debería enfocarse no solo en los países en desarrollo, donde la economía depende en gran medida de los animales, sino también en explorar y promover maneras de involucrar la práctica veterinaria en la administración responsable y proactiva del cambio climático.

Association between Islamic religiosity, social support, marriage satisfaction, and postpartum depression in teenage mothers in West Java, Indonesia: A cross-sectional study
Authors: Nurbaeti Irma , Lestari Kustati Budi , Syafii Moch
Published: August 2023

Background: Postpartum depression is a prevalent mental health issue among mothers after giving birth. Adolescent mothers are believed to have a higher rate of postpartum depression than adult mothers. However, research on postpartum depression among teenage mothers in Indonesia remains limited. This research gap emphasizes the need for more comprehensive studies to address the mental health and well-being of postpartum mothers in Indonesia, especially among adolescents.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the correlations between Islamic religiosity, social support, marital satisfaction, and postpartum depression in teenage mothers in Indonesia.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 203 adolescent postpartum mothers selected through cluster sampling. Data were collected using validated questionnaires from July to August 2020 in Cianjur and Sukabumi districts, West Java Province, Indonesia. Descriptive statistics, chi-square, and multiple logistic regression were employed for data analysis.
Results: The study revealed that 35.96% of teenage mothers experienced symptoms of postpartum depression. Among the variables studied, marriage satisfaction (p = 0.002), education level (p = 0.012), family income (p = 0.003), number of children (p = 0.044), and baby weight at birth (p= 0.0001) were significantly associated with postpartum depression. However, social support (p = 0.688) and religiosity (p = 0.788) showed no significant association with postpartum depression. Multiple logistic regression analysis further confirmed that marriage satisfaction (p = 0.001; OR = 0.365; 95% CI 0.197 - 0.676), family income (p = 0.001; OR = 0.326; 95% CI = 0.165 - 0.644), and the number of children (p = 0.026; OR = 3.68; 95% CI = 1.173 – 11.547) were the most significant factors associated with postpartum depression.
Conclusion: The study highlighted a high prevalence of postpartum depression among adolescent mothers. Marital satisfaction, family income, and the number of children were identified as key factors associated with postpartum depression in this population. These findings emphasize the importance of considering these factors in nursing and midwifery practice to provide targeted support and interventions, ultimately improving the mental health outcomes for teenage mothers during the postpartum period.
Psychometric validity of the Thai version of the Motivation for Healthy Eating Scale in patients with acute coronary syndrome
Authors: Boonsanong Ratchadaporn , Polsook Rapin
Published: August 2023

Background: Motivation plays a crucial role in lifestyle modifications for disease control and preventing recurrent cardiac events. Higher motivation levels are associated with improved health outcomes, including adherence to a healthy diet and sustained behavior change. However, there is a lack of evaluation of instruments for assessing motivation to adhere to diet recommendations, specifically among patients in Thailand.
Objective: This study aimed to assess the psychometric validity of the Thai version of the Motivation for Healthy Eating Scale (MHES) in patients with acute coronary syndrome in Thailand.
Methods: The study was conducted between May and August 2022, involving 200 patients with acute coronary syndrome selected through multistage random sampling from tertiary care institutions in Bangkok, Thailand. The scale was translated from English to Thai using the back-translation method. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Cronbach's alpha were employed to evaluate the validity and reliability of the scale.
Results: The Thai version of the MHES demonstrated satisfactory reliability with a Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.73. The analysis revealed four factors consisting of 16 items: 1) ‘integrated and integrated regulation’ with seven items, 2) ‘intrinsic and external regulation’ with three items, 3) ‘introjected regulation’ with three items, and 4) ‘amotivation’ with three items. These factors collectively explained 66.78% of the total variance.
Conclusion: The findings indicate that the Thai version of the MHES is a reliable and valid instrument for assessing motivation related to dietary behavior among Thai patients with acute coronary syndrome. Nurses and healthcare professionals can use this scale to evaluate the motivation of dietary behavior among this population, thereby facilitating targeted interventions and promoting positive health outcomes.

Authors: Tantanokit Jatuporn , Sansiriphun Nantaporn , Sripichyakan Kasara , Klunklin Pimpaporn
Published: August 2023

Background: The exposure of unborn babies to harmful substances during prenatal stages can lead to fetal anomalies, emphasizing the significance of pregnant women’s practices in ensuring optimal fetal outcomes. However, there is a lack of understanding regarding this issue from the perspective of pregnant women.
Objective: This study aimed to describe the experiences of pregnant women in avoiding harmful substances to their unborn babies.
Methods: This study used a qualitative descriptive approach. Data were collected between September 2020 and April 2021 through in-depth interviews with 17 pregnant women purposively selected from two hospitals in southern Thailand. Data were transcribed verbatim and analyzed using thematic analysis.
Results: Four themes emerged from the participants’ experiences: 1) understanding of harms, which included substance characteristics, exposure characteristics, body’s protective mechanism, personal experiences, and obtained information; 2) practices for safety, which consisted of food safety, work safety, ambient air safety, and safety in personal/household products; 3) challenges in avoiding harmful substances, which were unrecognition, unavailability of safe substances, discomfort and inconvenience, inevitability, and family traditions; and 4) overcoming the challenges through personal changes, obtaining support, and ensuring a peaceful mind.
Conclusion:  The findings provide valuable insights into prenatal exposure to harmful substances, which can serve as a basis for developing comprehensive guidelines for best practices. It is crucial for nurses to receive training that enables them to educate pregnant women, enhancing their awareness of important harmful substances and promoting effective methods for maintaining safety in their daily activities. Additionally, nurses can develop interventions to empower pregnant women to overcome challenges by involving significant individuals, particularly family members, in providing support and creating an optimal prenatal environment.

Authors: Nadarajan Sivasankari , Hengudomsub Pornpat , Wacharasin Chintana
Published: August 2023

Background: The internet has become an inevitable tool for information-seeking and communication in today’s modern era. However, ironically it has driven humankind to become more dependent, leading to addiction. Internet addiction has increased exponentially at all levels of society, especially university students, impeding their physical, psychological, and social well-being. Objective: This study aimed to examine the relationship between academic procrastination and internet addiction and determine the influence of academic procrastination on internet addiction among Thai university students. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 470 participants selected through multi-stage cluster random sampling from a university in eastern Thailand. The data collection was conducted between 29 November 2022 and 27 January 2023. The data were gathered using a demographic data form, an internet addiction test, and a procrastination assessment scale for the students’ questionnaire. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficient, and simple linear regression were employed for data analysis. Results: The results revealed that academic procrastination (M = 49.68, SD = 12.61) and internet addiction (M = 65.26, SD = 5.60) were at a moderate level. A positive correlation was identified between academic procrastination and internet addiction (r = 0.33, p <0.01), indicating a low relationship. Academic procrastination also had a significant predictive power on internet addiction, accounting for 11.3% of the variance (R2 adjusted = 0.113, F (1, 468) = 59.583, p <0.001). Conclusion: The findings indicated the significant role of academic procrastination on internet addiction. Therefore, it is crucial that nurses should formulate interventions by considering this factor and emphasize self-regulatory and time-management skills and practical ways to limit internet dependence. Furthermore, the findings suggest that nurses could assess the procrastination level among students, devise prevention strategies, and organize awareness campaigns to instill information about rational internet use that aids in mitigating the risks and preventing them from getting addicted.
Emulating the Role of Neutrophils in Head and Neck Cancer Microenvironment: Prognostic Role and Therapeutic Strategies
Authors: Singh Khushwant , Gautam Pramod kumar
Published: August 2023

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) are a group of cancers that affect various parts of the head and neck, such as the lip, oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx, and nasopharynx. In India, it accounts for approximately 30–40% of all cancers, while in the United States, it represents around 4% of all cancer cases. HNSCC is a significant contributor to cancer-related deaths globally. While smoking is linked to HNSCC, recent research has confirmed the importance of the human papillomavirus (HPV) in its development. Additionally, HNSCC is characterized by immune deficiencies, where the tumor microenvironment alters immune cell activity to facilitate carcinogenesis. However, researchers have identified novel immunotherapeutic targets for HNSCC, mainly by studying the involvement of inflammatory cells such as neutrophils, eosinophils, and macrophages. Unfortunately, patients with recurring malignancy and distant metastases have limited treatment options, with a prognosis of less than one year. Platinum-based chemotherapy, cetuximab, and other conventional therapies are used to treat recurrent and metastatic HNSCC. The pro and anti-tumor roles of neutrophils in cancer and immunotherapy are explored in this study, with a focus on HNSCC. The primary objective is to increase our understanding of HNSCC biology and immunobiology to uncover viable therapeutic options that are both valid and less cytotoxic.

Objetivo: Recopilar información actualizada basada en evidencia científica sobre el uso del collar de ámbar en bebés. Materiales y Métodos: Se realizó una estrategia de búsqueda en las bases de datos bibliográficas como MEDLINE (Pubmed), SCOPUS, EMBASE, LILACS, Scielo y Google Scholar (literatura gris) utilizando los descriptores “Ámbar”, “Ácido Succínico”, “Diente Primario”, “Erupción Dental” y “Síntomas Locales”. Se incluyeron artículos publicados entre 2012 y 2022 en inglés, portugués y español, que abordaron tópicos relacionados con el uso del collar de ámbar en bebés, considerando los beneficios y/o efectos negativos. Se excluyeron revisiones de literatura, capítulos de libros y tesis. Se incluyeron un total de 6 artículos. Conclusión: El uso del collar de ámbar en bebés está enfocado al control de los síntomas de la erupción dental, sin embargo, aún no existe evidencia científica que confirme su eficacia. Los efectos negativos de llevar el collar de ámbar son la contaminación bacteriana, el riesgo de estrangulación y la falta de seguridad durante su uso. Los dentistas deben contraindicar su uso en bebés pues no existe evidencia científica que avale su uso para controlar los síntomas de erupción dental en bebés.

Este trabalho tem por objetivo apresentar por meio de alguns invariantes operatórios mobilizados pelos alunos da segunda série do Ensino Médio as contribuições originadas pela aplicação de Estratégias de Ensino Metacognitivas. Estes resultados fazem parte de uma pesquisa maior de doutorado a qual buscou identificar quais contribuições que estratégias de ensino metacognitivas têm para trabalhar com os invariantes operatórios sobre o conceito de calor de alunos da segunda série do Ensino Médio. A aplicação deste estudo ocorreu em uma escola pública da cidade de Jardim-Mato Grosso do Sul, no ano de 2021, período de volta ao presencial em meio a pandemia da COVID-19. Participaram desta pesquisa trinta e oito alunos, dos quais foram analisadas apenas as respostas de vinte e um alunos que participaram de todas as aulas desenvolvidas. Em termos metodológicos, a pesquisa se desenvolveu por meio de uma observação participante, tendo como instrumento de coleta de dados um questionário aplicado em três momentos distintos guiados pelas estratégias de ensino metacognitivas. Para este artigo, selecionamos apenas uma das questões presente no questionário em que o fenômeno térmico se fazpresente cuja pretensão era a compreensão e aplicação da concepção do calor como o nome convencional de um processo. A análise dos dados se perpetua pelos pressupostos da Teoria dos Campos Conceituais, na qual buscou-se evidenciar os invariantes operatórios (conceitos-em-ação e teoremas-em-ação) manifestados pelos alunos ao responderem as diferentes situações presentes no questionário. Os resultados identificados permitem inferir que as estratégias de ensino metacognitivas utilizadas potencializaram a construção de novos invariantes operatórios necessários para a compreensão dos processos microscópicos envolvidos nos fenômenos físicos associados com o calor. Além disso, mostram-se pertinentes para o processo de tomada de consciência de seus conhecimentos, de seus colegas e da ciência.

Digressão e paródia num causo em O Xangô de Baker Street
Authors: Cordeiro Fernando Henrique Crepaldi
Published: August 2023

Este trabalho propõe uma microanálise de um causo narrado no interior de O Xangô de Baker Street (1995), de Jô Soares. A ideia é que essa passagem pode oferecer elementos que possibilitam o entendimento do romance brasileiro num sentido mais amplo. Para tanto, é fundamental a análise de dois recursos centrais no excerto e na obra do escritor carioca: a digressão e a paródia. Quanto à digressão, buscaremos relacioná-la com a busca do texto de desviar nossa atenção do entrecho policial do romance ao propor um desvio ou uma narrativa “entre parênteses”, configurando uma mise en abyme. Em relação à paródia, entendida a partir das formulações de Linda Hutcheon (1985), observar-se-á como ela se articula, por um lado, à revelação do procedimento e, por outro, à ridicularização do detetive/narrador. Tais elementos, que configuram o causo narrado pelo detetive Mello Pimenta, podem ser lidos como um microcosmo dos recursos que estruturam o romance de Jô Soares.

As Tecnologias Digitais de Informação e da Comunicação (TDIC’s) vêm se desenvolvendo de maneira desenfreada nos últimos anos. Na área da educação, algumas mudanças também estão ocorrendo, em especial, com a implantação da Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC). Este trabalho tem como objetivo estudar como as tecnologias digitais estão inseridas nos documentos oficiais que norteiam a Educação Básica, identificando e discutindo os pontos que abordam tecnologias digitais da informação e comunicação na área de Ensino da Matemática. Para isso, foi realizada uma pesquisa documental na BNCC para o Ensino Fundamental, na área de Matemática. Como resultado destaca-se as diversas menções sobre o uso de tecnologias digitais, aplicativos, softwares e planilhas eletrônicas no documento, entretanto, o modo em que a BNCC está estruturada, não contribui para que as tecnologias sejam exploradas, e auxiliem no processo ensino-aprendizagem dos alunos, visto que as menções dos usos das TDIC’s são superficiais e extremamente amplas, o que por vezes, além de não estimular dificulta a inserção de tais recursos em sala de aula.
