Authors: Torres-Hernández Sara , Mares López Kenia Janeth
Published: September 2021

Esta propuesta de intervención ofrece ver al conflicto como una oportunidad de aprendizaje para la transformación positiva de la convivencia. Si bien se aprende a convivir diariamente desde casa, para formarse en construir la paz se requiere trabajar desde las aulas; esto se puede lograr al destacar factores positivos que permitan el cambio y aprender a resolver las diferencias entre los involucrados. Este proyecto favorece los ambientes de aprendizaje, a través de promover la sana convivencia por medio de diversas estrategias para la resolución de conflictos de manera positiva y al fomentar habilidades socioemocionales. Se abordó desde el paradigma sociocrítico, con base en la investigación-acción, es decir, involucrándose en lo que se quiere transformar; para el diagnóstico y la evaluación de las estrategias se aplicaron técnicas como la observación, encuesta, entrevista y tests aplicados a las docentes. Se encontró baja autoestima en el alumnado y que ni los estudiantes ni los docentes saben cómo afrontar ni resolver los conflictos. Para atender esta realidad se aplicaron doce actividades orientadas en habilidades sociales; se fomentó la inteligencia intrapersonal y se manejaron también diversas estrategias de resolución del conflicto, las cuales involucraron a docentes, alumnado y jefes de familia de educación primaria. Los resultados fueron positivos, muestran cambios en los involucrados, en su manera de desenvolverse socialmente, actitudes y formas de pensar más positivas, lo que dio como consecuencia la mejora en la sana convivencia al apreciar al conflicto como una oportunidad para aprender de los otros.

This paper sought to understand how geographic and historical sources of Chinese strategic culture shaped China’s stance regarding sea power throughout the imperial period and in the People’s Republic of China. By applying a deductive qualitative analysis, it was possible to identify that the borders of the Chinese heartland with the northern strategic periphery inhabited by non-Han peoples constituted an element of vulnerability that prompted the various dynasties to prioritize land-based strategic options. In the People’s Republic of China, the strategic environment favored the construction and adoption of sea power, however, continental domestic imperatives still influence Chinese strategic culture and security decisions. The study of the Chinese case enabled this paper to contribute to the understanding of how strategic culture molds strategic decisions by interacting with material and ideational variables. Keywords: maritime; continental; China, strategic culture.

In ancient Greece, knowledge was not neatly contained in distinct disciplines and leading scholars moved freely among different fields. The influence of reductionism, which began with Aristoteles and has continued ever since, created disciplines with precise boundaries. With such disciplinary approach, each field evolves independently as a specialized set of tools of analysis. The question arises: are these boundaries still necessary nowadays or must we look on the teaching/learning process more transdisciplinary? In this contribution, one of the possible ways will be shown and evaluated, how to model and apply an appropriate solution. Key words: transdisciplinary models, multidisciplinary models, cognitive education, neuroscience, holistic approach.

Published: September 2021

Much of the discussion is currently connected with our thought, our judgements, with our brain, especially connected with the learning process and methodology how to effectively learn. Most of our judgments and actions are appropriate most of the time. As we navigate our lives, we normally allow ourselves to be guided by impressions and feelings, and the confidence we have in our intuitive beliefs and preferences is usually justified. But not always. We are often confident, even when we are wrong, and an objective observer is more likely to detect our errors than we are. But a problem arises if we neglect comments or proposals of this observer. In this case you must take into account proprioception. It could also say “self-perception of thought”, “self-awareness of thought” or “thought is aware of itself in action”. Whatever terms could be used, thought should be able to perceive its own movement, be aware of its own movement and if so, at the process of problem solving (problem and research based learning) we are developing the system of thinking in an intuitive, heuristic and slow, systematical thinking. Keywords: cognitive education, research based learning, proprioception.

Published: September 2021

In science and technology education lectures, exercises, and report type home works are aimed to guide individual learning in knowing applied methods and tools to gain knowledge and skills needed in future profession. This research presents observations how flipped learning and group work would solve some of the motivation and resource related challenges in the NDU’s master level curricula in the department of military technology. However, feedback studies from recent courses showed that assessment, guidance, and even controlling procedures are needed when applying these methods. Action research methodology was used to seek solutions to the new challenges produced by student centric education like flipped and group work type approaches. Observations were made from the NDU’s two year long, preprogrammed, and mostly preplanned curricula. The research revealed that in NDU many aspects in group based models required deeper consideration. Especially, related individual assignments, assessment methods, and motivational aspects formed some of the critical areas. Keywords: group work, assessment methods, student centric learning.

DISCIPLINE IN SCHOOLS: SOME ACTUAL ISSUES
Authors:   University of Maribor, Slovenia, Wirth Alex , Aberšek Boris ,   University of Maribor, Slovenia
Published: September 2021

Discipline in class is essential. Without it the educational processes and teachings are difficult. In this manner curricula goals are almost impossible to achieve. There are and there always will be some kind of conflicts between teachers and students, but they should not evolve to become a problem. Teachers (especially elderly teachers) often express pessimism of contemporary students. They say that today's students have less knowledge, they do misbehave more often than previous generations. A study among students was conducted. It was trying to determine the rate of discipline in schools in Celje to see if these statements are true. The questionnaire to students of one primary and one high school in Celje, Slovenia were distributed. The answers from 234 students were received. On the one hand, it was found out that senior high school students have the worst level of discipline of all the grades tested. They themselves assess their class atmosphere as less disciplined. They report that teachers use a lot of time to calm the class down. All this is probably a factor in lower average grade that the senior high school students have. On the other hand, it was found out that teachers do not react to the disturbance or they are trying to be repressive. These are not the correct ways of dealing with discipline issues. Therefore, there are some recommended ways how teachers should react. Keywords: discipline in class, primary school, contemporary student, elderly teachers.

A vast majority of novices in universities predominantly utilize algorithmic mental processes to resolve assigned tasks and tests. Although algorithmic thinking is an essential part of human cognitive functions, experts on didactics call for methods, which develop also conceptual thinking in beginners. Currently, heuristic molecular modeling gains an important position in chemistry education since it inherently integrates several conceptual thinking principles. Herein, it is focused on computational analysis of eight potential immunomodulators prepared by Diels-Alder reactions to exemplify conceptualized chemistry learning. Keywords: conceptual learning, diels-alder cycloadditions, molecular modeling, RM1, activation energy.

Authors: Sharmin S , Hasan MA , Sikder S
Published: September 2021

Four wheat variety/genotype (BARI Gom-26, BAW-1202, BAW-1182 and BARI Gom-27) were tested under three heat stress regimes (normal, moderate and severe) to evaluate the effect of late seeding warmer condition on phenology and yield of wheat, as well as to identify suitable cultivars to develop heat-tolerant genotypes at Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University (HSTU), Dinajpur during November, 2016 to April, 2017. Results revealed that genotype BAW-1182 and BAW-1202 showed greater thermostability of cell membrane with acceptable yield performance under heat stress condition. The order of tolerance based on heat susceptibility index (based on grain yield) was BAW-1182>BAW-1202>BARI Gom-27>BARI Gom-26 under heat stress conditions. Thus, BAW-1182 and BAW-1202 have the greatest potential to be used as high-yielding wheat genotypes under warm to hot environments and could be used in a breeding programme to develop heat-tolerant wheat.

The experiment was carried out at the research field of the Department of Agronomy of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural University (BSMRAU), Gazipur during December 2016 to April 2017 to investigate the effect of different phosphorus levels (0, 30, 60 and 90 kg P ha-1) on the growth and yield of four selected cowpea genotypes (BARI Felon-1, A-06008, VI046192 and VI034386). The experiment was laid out in a factorial randomized complete block design with three replications. The results indicated that, among the genotype, BARI Felon-1  required minimum days to 1st (96 DAS) and 50% flowering (108 DAS) showing the highest absolute growth rate (0.71 g day-1), crop growth rate (23.69 g m-2 day-1), relative growth rate (0.047 g g-1 day-1), net assimilation rate (1.40 g m-2 day-1), leaf area index (6.68), SPAD value (51.03), seed length (0.71 cm) and breadth (0.54 cm). But the genotype, A-06008 gave the highest grain yield (0.62 t ha-1). Application of phosphorus at 90 kg ha-1 showed the highest leaf area index (6.67), SPAD value (50.98), pod length (14.33 cm), seed length (0.70 cm), seed breadth (0.50 cm) and grain yield (0.34 t ha-1). In terms of growth and yield, the cowpea genotype A-06008 showed the best performance at the phosphorus level of 90 kg ha-1.

The experiment was conducted at the Research field of Agronomy Division, BARI, Joydebpur, Gazipur during rabi seasons of 2016-2017 and 2017-2018 to evaluate the effects of twig removal on yield and yield attributes, and extra benefit incurred due to removal of twig as a leafy vegetable in pea varieties. Treatments consisted of three varieties such as V1=Natore local, V2 = BARI Motorshuti-1 and V3= BARI Motor-1 and five twig removal variables, viz. T1= control (no removal), T2 = removal of 5 cm twig at 25 DAE, T3= removal of 7.5 cm twig at 25 DAE, T4=removal of 10 cm twig at 35 DAE, T5= removal of 12.5 cm twig at 35 DAE. Leafy vegetable yield varied among the varieties and twig removal variables. The highest leafy vegetable yield (778 and 975 kgha-1) over the years was recorded in BARI Motorshuti-1 when 12.5 cm twig removed at 35 days after emergence which was at par with BARI Motor-1 at the same cutting time and the same length. The maximum pod yield (9.15 t ha-1 and 9.52 t ha-1) was recorded in BARI    Motorshuti-1 when 5cm twig removed at 25 days after emergence (DAE), which was statistically similar to the same variety with twig removal of 7.5 cm at 25 DAE. The highest gross return (Tk. 76522.00 ha-1), gross margin (Tk.48272.00 ha-1) and BCR (2.71) was recorded in BARI Motorshuti-1 when twig removed 5 cm at 25 DAE, which was similar to the same variety with 7.5 cm twig removed at 25 DAE. The result revealed that 5-7.5 cm twig removal at 25 DAE from the tip might be a profitable technique for pea (var. BARI Motorshuti-1) production for dual purpose as vegetables and pod yield.

Continuous cultivation of highly exhaustive cropping sequence in most of the irrigated fertile lands has resulted in the decline of soil physico-chemical condition in general and particularly soil organic matter (SOM) content. The experiment was laid out inasplit- plot design with irrigation (I1: traditional irrigation i.e. continuous flooding, I2: saturated condition, I3: Alternate wetting and drying) in main plots and fertilizers treatments: T0 = Control, T1 =100% (Recommended dose of chemical fertilizer), T2 =50% RDCF + 5 ton cowdung ha- 1, T3=70% RDCF + 3 ton cowdung ha-1, T4 =50% RDCF + 5 ton compost ha-1, T5 =70% RDCF + 3 ton compost ha-1, T6 = 50% RDCF + 3.5 ton poultry manure ha-1, T7 =70% RDCF + 2.1 ton poultry manure ha-1to the sub - plots. The rice yields were not significantly affected by different irrigation but higher grain yields were obtained in continuous flooded irrigation. The treatment T7 gave higher Boro and T. Aman rice yields. The higher Boro rice grain yields were obtained from I1T7 (70% RDCF + 2.1 ton poultry manure ha-1 with continuous flooded irrigation) followed by I3T7 (alternate wetting and drying + 70% RDCF + 2.1 ton poultry manure ha-1). The 100% RDCF was applied to T. Aman rice resulted residual effects of fertilizer and the higher T. Aman rice yields were recorded in I2T2 (saturated condition + 50% RDCF + 3 ton cowdungha-1) followed by I2T3 (saturated condition + 50% RDCF + 3 ton cowdungha-1) treatment combinations due to more residual effects of inorganic plus manure application during Boro rice cropping. The highest organic matter level was found in post-harvest soils where inorganic fertilizer plus cowdung were used and soil pH increased by using poultry manure. The higher levels of available P and K concentrations were observed in the post experiment soils where fertilizer and manure were applied.

Published: September 2021

The experiment was conducted at Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka during Rabi season 2018-19 to find out the influence of planting methods and nitrogen dose on growth and yield of Quinoa-a highly nutritious super food newly introduced in Bangladesh. The experiment was laid out in a Split-plot design with 3 replications. Two planting methods viz., i) seed sowing (M1) and ii) seedling planting (M2) in the main plot and eight nitrogen doses viz., i) Control (F1), ii) 50 kg N ha-1 (F2), iii) 100 kg N ha-1 (F3), iv) 150 kg N ha-1 (F4), v) 180 kg N ha-1 (F5), vi) 200 kg N ha-1 (F6), vii) 220 kg N ha-1 (F7) and ix) 250 kg N ha-1 (F8) in the sub-plot were assigned. Almost all the studied characters were found statistically significant due to variation in treatments. The higher plant height, leaf number plant-1, branch number plant-1 and inflorescence height were observed in seedling transplantation than seeds sowing. Increment of nitrogen doses increased the plant height, leaves number plant-1, branch number plant-1, inflorescence height and SPAD value up to 150-200 kg N ha-1 and then decreased. Higher doses of nitrogenous fertilizer application increased the grain weight. Planting seedling with 150 kg N ha-1 showed the highest seed yield (1227.43 kg ha-1) which was similar to 180 kg N ha-. Cultivation of quinoa with 25 days old seedlings and 150 kg N ha-1 gave 206.77% higher yield compared to that of control and it was 64.71% higher in case of seeds sowing with similar nitrogen dose.

A field experiment was conducted at multi-location testing (MLT) site, Barura under On-Farm Research Division (OFRD), Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute, Cumilla during 2014-16 to determine the productivity and profitability of cropping patterns, viz. Boro (var. BRRI dhan28)-T.Aus (var. BRRI dhan48)- T. Aman (var. BRRI dhan49)-Fallow (existing cropping pattern) and Boro (var. BRRI dhan28)-T. Aus (var. BRRI dhan48)-T. Aman (var. Binadhan-11)-Mustard (var. BARI Sarisha-14) as  improved cropping pattern. The results showed that improved cropping pattern provided higher amount of grain and by-product yield. The highest mean REY (18.08 t ha-1), PE (54.61 kg ha-1 day-1), LUE (90.68 %) and SYI (77.12%) was obtained from improved cropping pattern Boro-T.Aus-T. Aman-Mustard and the lowest (14.30 t ha-1 in 2014-15 and 13.98 t ha-1 in 2015-16) from farmers existing cropping pattern. The highest gross return (Tk. 274800 ha-1 in 2014-15 and Tk. 276600 ha-1 in 2015-16), gross margin (Tk. 113950 ha-1 in 2014-15 and Tk. 106750 ha-1 in 2015-16) and BCR (1.70 in 2014-15 and 1.66 in 2015-16) were obtained from improved four crops based cropping pattern (Boro-T. Aus-T. Aman-Mustard). Two years results showed that four crops could be grown one after another in a sequence in the farmers field of Cumilla region for achieving higher system productivity and economic return.
