OS TIRANOS NÃO DIALOGAM! UM ESTUDO SOBRE O DIÁLOGO INTER-RELIGIOSO À LUZ DA CAMPANHA DA FRATERNIDADE 2021
Authors: Do Vale Tiago Gurgel , Dantas José Ancelmo Santos , Frezzato Anderson
Published: June 2024

Pretende-se mostrar a importância do diálogo entre as religiões não cristãs como lugar privilegiado de encontro e de esforço pela construção da paz. Desde o Concílio Vaticano II, a Igreja Católica tem sido protagonista por fomentar empatia e consciência de que o diálogo inter-religioso como ação que pode combater a violência religiosa oriunda da intolerância, falta de respeito e de tirania. O desenvolvimento deste trabalho traz como impulso as assertivas propostas pela Campanha da Fraternidade de 2021 em relação à temática. A discussão se divide em três partes: na primeira, encontra-se a necessidade do diálogo frente à violência e à necessidade de mudanças nas estruturas eclesiais visando a aproximação; na segunda parte, são apontadas posturas que impedem o diálogo, como a tirania, sendo mostradas através do resgate de personagens bíblicos e por fim, são elencados alguns apontamentos práticos que podem ser úteis para fomentar espaços de diálogo inter-religioso.

O CURSO BILÍNGUE DE PEDAGOGIA DO INSTITUTO NACIONAL DE EDUCAÇÃO DE SURDOS E A FORMAÇÃO DE PROFESSORES
Authors: Silva Gabriel Oliveira da , Silva Yrlla Ribeiro de Oliveira Carneiro da
Published: June 2024

O Curso Bilíngue de Pedagogia do Instituto Nacional de Educação de Surdos (INES), reconhecido como Centro de Referência Nacional sobre a Surdez, surge, em 2006, num contexto de reconhecimento dos direitos da pessoa surda e consequentemente num processo de mudança na escolarização destes sujeitos. Nesse sentido, o curso busca contemplar a surdez como diferença e a educação bilíngue é concebida como a forma mais apropriada de educar surdos. O Curso Bilíngue de Pedagogia do INES formou sua primeira turma em dezembro de 2009 e já percebemos, após os estágios curriculares, a importância da formação destes professores para a escolarização das crianças surdas, principalmente, no modelo de inclusão difundido nas escolas de educação básica do Brasil. Deste modo, propomos discutir a formação de professores para a inclusão de surdos a partir da experiência que tem sido desenvolvida no âmbito do Curso Bilíngue de Pedagogia do INES.

O Brasil é um país megadiverso cuja biodiversidade enfrenta momento crucial devido à implantação de controversas políticas públicas ambientais na esfera federal. Neste artigo, ressaltamos que há um recente declínio de interesse por parte da sociedade brasileira pelas questões ambientais, cenário que sugere uma falha no processo de comunicação sobre a importância de se proteger a natureza e sua biodiversidade. Como elementos que dão corpo a esta realidade, apresentamos a incidência do neoliberalismo no campo educacional e objetivação deste nas políticas educacionais, em especial sobre o currículo escolar, a partir da BNCC da Educação Básica. Diante do exposto, consideramos que no Brasil as crianças são sujeitos importantes, nos quais as percepções ambientais sobre a conservação da natureza podem ser aprimoradas a longo prazo. Neste sentido, apresentamos metodologias e procedimentos metodológicos que podem, na contramão da educação pragmática e tecnicista, contribuir com atividades de comunicação e educação científica para este público-alvo.

Published: June 2024

Com as transformações sociais e novas tecnologias produzidas pela modernidade não é possível que as instituições de ensino superior continuem com a mesma forma de atuar na transmissão de saber e na formação de novos profissionais. No presente artigo verificamos como a transdisciplinaridade é uma metodologia eficaz para a adequação da educação no século XXI. Para tanto realizamos um estudo de caso no curso ministrado pela pastoral universitária da PUC-Rio intitulado “Formação complementar em direitos humanos”. Busca-se dinamizar o ensino e a interatividade dos discentes universitários.
RELAÇÃO DIALÓGICA ENTRE EDUCAÇÃO E ESPAÇO NÃO FORMAL: OARTESANATO EM FOCO
Authors: Calabria Maria Lúcia de Fátima Melo Alves , De Amorim Ivonete Barreto , De Araújo Raiane Cordeiro
Published: June 2024

O objetivo deste estudo foi estabelecer uma relação dialógica entre educação em espaço não formal e a educação/formação através do artesanato. Para tanto, a metodologia utilizada refere-se a pesquisa bibliográfica e, com isto, destacamos as seguintes contribuições teóricas: Freire (2001; 2014), Geertz (2008), Gohn (2008; 2009; 2014), Libâneo (2005), dentre outros, que enfatizam a urgência de estratégias e mecanismos que possibilitem enfrentamentos para as mudanças necessárias às relações socioculturais e dialógicas entre educação/formação em espaços não formal. Dentre tantos resultados, destacamos a força da educação popular como processo intrínseco à história, à arte, à cultura, ao cotidiano das pessoas e às expectativas e possibilidades que se busca por melhoria da qualidade de vida, por direitos sociais, inclusão e diversidade nas políticas públicas, assim como a importância que a educação social representa, pois a horizontalidade dos saberes e dos fazeres ecoam na construção dialógica do processo que perpassa a relação entre a educação em espaço não formal e a educação/formação através do artesanato.
UM ESBOÇO DA HISTÓRIA INTELECTUAL DE PAULO FREIRE
Authors: Sá Geraldo Mateus de
Published: June 2024

O presente artigo, fundamentado em autores da História Intelectual, busca compreender Paulo Freire a partir deste campo de estudo, ao percebe-lo como um intelectual articulado ao seu contexto histórico, social e político. Compreende-se que a produção intelectual de um autor não está desvinculada nem da realidade nem das repercussões de sua leitura do mundo. No que tange à sua produção intelectual, como categoria de análise da História Intelectual, considera-se o caráter polissêmico de suas ideias e de suas ações em uma realidade concreta. Repercutir a história intelectual deste educador significa elucidar o desenvolvimento das ideias que engendraram a sua concepção pedagógica frente a toda e qualquer forma de opressão. De tal modo, conclui-se que sua história intelectual, entendida como agente e propulsora da mudança, contribuiu para uma profunda cisão nas velhas práticas pedagógicas opressoras.
CULTURA PADRÃO DE SEGREGAÇÃO HUMANA? CULTURA PADRÃO DE EDUCAÇÃO-HUMANIZAÇÃO?
Authors: Arroyo Miguel Gonzales
Published: June 2024

Otexto se propõe a entender como os campos da cultura e da educação-humanização se reforçam na história. Também tem sido campos de tensões políticas e pedagógicas. Na primeira parte do trabalho nos interrogamos sobre como a cultura tem sido colocada à serviço do padrão político de segregação humana. Tensões políticas entre cultura nacional e cultura-educação popular. Mitos culturais fundantes legitimantes das segregações étnicas, raciais e do padrão de humanos in-humanos. Na segunda parte nos interrogamos sobre a cultura como padrão de educação, de libertação. Paulo Freire critica a invasão cultural como dominação política mas, sobretudo destaca as resistências culturais como matrizes de emancipação, humanização. A cultura sintetiza as tensões políticas. Síntese cultural.
EDUCAÇÃO FREIRIANA NO CONTEXTO DAS POLÍTICAS LINGUÍSTICAS DE INCLUSÃO PARA ESTUDANTES COM DEFICIÊNCIA VISUAL
Authors: Gomes Cintya Cardoso
Published: June 2024

RESUMO: O objetivo é problematizar acerca dos Marcos Político-Legais da Educação Especial na perspectiva da Educação Inclusiva (BRASIL, 2010), a Lei Brasileira de Inclusão da Pessoa com Deficiência (BRASIL, 2015a), a Base Nacional Comum Curricular – BNCC (BRASIL, 2015b, 2018b) e o Projeto Grafia Braille para Língua Portuguesa (BRASIL, 2018a) relacionando-se às principais propostas de Paulo Freire para acesso das pessoas com deficiência visual à educação igualitária. Fundamenta-se na Pedagogia da Autonomia (Freire, 1996) sobre a formação e práticas educacionais e nas legislações (BRASIL, 2010, 2015a, 2015b, 2018a, 2018b) sobre a discussão político-linguística para inclusão educacional. Conclui-se que, nessas políticas, a língua é apresentada como um recurso de exclusão educacional para as pessoas com deficiência visual para quem é disponibilizado o Braille como meio absoluto de desenvolvimento intelectual a fim de que eles não se apoderem da língua portuguesa adotada pela sociedade.

Authors: Thangaraju Thamizhmathi , Joshi Reesha , Janarthanam Harish Kumar , Ramakrishnan Lakshmi
Published: June 2024

: This manuscript presents an audit focused on assessing the extent of drug wastage and associated costs linked to the disposal of unused intravenous agents within the operating theatres of a tertiary care hospital. The study aims to carefully look at drug wastage, figure out why it happens, and propose strategies for optimizing resource utilization and cost-efficiency in clinical settings.

: This audit is a prospective observational study carried out in a tertiary care hospital. The amount of drug loaded preoperatively, the amount of drug utilized, the amount of drug unutilized and discarded, the total quantity of drug wasted, and the cost related to the wastage were calculated in percentage.

The maximum wastage of loaded drugs was seen with atropine (100%), followed by ephedrine (93.6%), propofol (52.5%), phenylephrine (35.2%), atracurium (28.6%), dexmedetomidine (27.8%), fentanyl (16.8%), vecuronium (16.2%) and morphine (6.4%). The cost analysis revealed that 36.3% of the total loaded drugs were wasted amounting to Rs.46903.54. The cost of wastage of propofol was maximum with Rs.14006 which is 29.8% of total cost wastage followed by atracurium 21%(Rs.9856), dexmedetomidine 18.4%(Rs.8687.5), ephedrine 14.7%(Rs.6919), phenylephrine 10.4%(Rs.4910), fentanyl 3.7%(Rs.1780), atropine 1.9% (Rs.906), vecuronium 1.2% (Rs.563.76), Morphine 0.18% (Rs.85.28).

: In our audit, the maximum drug wastage was observed with atropine (100%) amounting to Rs.906, and the cost of wastage was maximum with propofol amounting to Rs.14006 which was 29.8% of the total cost of wastage. Our audit underscores the importance of proactive management of drug wastage and disposal costs in healthcare settings, particularly within operating theatres where intravenous agents play a crucial role in patient treatment. By conducting a comprehensive audit and proposing targeted interventions, healthcare institutions can optimize resource utilization, enhance sustainability, and ultimately improve patient outcomes.

Published: June 2024

This study aims to analyze the words of the Pegon script contained in the Book of Fasholatan by Raden Asnawi Kudus with the perspective of one branch in modern linguistics, namely morphological studies. In this study, researchers used qualitative research methods based on literature research with content analysis of the contents of the Book of Fasholatan by Raden Asnawi Kudus. The results of this study found that there are several morphological characteristics of the word Pegon in Kitab Fasholatan, namely: First, that the morphological system of Pegon vocabulary is based on the morphological system of Javanese which divides types of words into 11 words. Secondly, in the morphological system of the word Pegon there are several vocabularies absorbed directly from Arabic. Third, in the morphological system of the Pegon script, there are Arabic loanwords that have undergone changes in form and changes in meaning, through various types of changes, namely: phonological changes, changes by adding letters at the beginning of words, in the middle or at the end of words, and changes by removing letters from a Pegon word. Fourth, in the morphological system of the Pegon script, various Javanese dialects including the Javanese dialects of Ngoko, Krama Madya, and Krama Inggil are also used in writing the vocabulary of the Pegon script.

Authors: Zorman Lidija , Farkaš-Lainščak Jerneja
Published: June 2024

Umetna inteligenca ima v operacijski dejavnosti velik potencial za izboljšanje kakovosti in učinkovitosti zdravstvene oskrbe. Raziskava, izvedena v Splošni bolnišnici Murska Sobota v letu 2023, je proučevala stališča zdravstvenih delavcev v operacijski dejavnosti, do uporabe umetne inteligence. V raziskavo je bilo vključenih 120 anketirancev (odzivnost 64,1 %). Tretjina jih je podprla vključevanje umetne inteligence v operacijske dvorane. Glavne prednosti njene uporabe vidijo v odsotnosti čustvene izčrpanosti (41,6 %). Kot slabost pa so izpostavili njeno omejeno sposobnost prilagajanja in reševanja nepričakovanih situacij (57,1 %). V naslednjih desetih letih pričakujejo njen razvoj v podpornih službah operacijske dvorane (39 %). Etične dileme se osredotočajo na odgovornost pri njeni uporabi. Večina anketirancev (54,5 %) meni, da bodo pravno odgovornost prevzeli zaposleni zdravstveni delavci v operacijski dejavnosti. Po mnenju anketirancev (63,7 %) umetna inteligenca ne more nadomestiti profila zdravstvenega delavca v operacijski dvorani. Nadaljnje raziskave bi lahko proučevale izobraževanje o umetni inteligenci in razvoj etičnih smernic za njeno uporabo.

Effect of Glycopyrrolate-xylazine Supplementation on Zoletil-induced Total Intramuscular Anaesthesia in Dogs
Authors: Singh Sumiter , Malik V. , Tyagi Surbhi K. , Kumar Vineet , Sahoo Narendra
Published: June 2024

Background: Zoletil has been used at different dose rates with or without preanaesthetics through intramuscular or intravenous routes in canine patients with varying results in other countries. The doses recommended by the manufacturer as well as researchers and the observations on various clinico-physiological and hemodynamic parameters are also highly variable. Keeping these points in mind, the present study was conducted to study anesthetic/sedative effects of intramuscular administration of Zoletil (20 mg/kg) and also to study the effect of glycopyrrolate (0.005 mg/kg)-xylazine (0.5 mg/kg) supplementation on Zoletil (10 mg/kg)-induced total intramuscular anesthesia in dogs. Methods: Fourteen canine patients were divided into two groups, viz., A and B, with seven animals in each group.In group A, Zoletil (tiletamine-zolazepam) at the dose rate of 20 mg/kg body weight was administered intramuscularly as an anaesthetic. In group B, preanesthetic glycopyrrolate at 0.005 mg/kg body weight was administered intramuscularly. After 15 minutes, xylazine at 0.5 mg/kg body weight was administered intramuscularly. After 15 minutes of preanesthetic administration in the B group, anaesthesia was induced intramuscularly with tiletamine-zolazepam @ 10 mg/kg body weight. Result: Zoletil (Tiletamine-zolazepam, 20 mg/kg IM) (group A) is only recommended for non-surgical/diagnostic (viz. Gastro-intestinal endoscopy)/minor surgical procedures in uncooperative dogs. An intramuscular anaesthetic protocol using glycopyrrolate (0.005 mg/kg)-xylazine (0.5 mg/kg) - Zoletil (10 mg/kg IM) (group B) is recommended for major surgical procedures of long duration. Neither the anaesthetic protocol produced any serious deleterious effect on hemato-biochemical and hemodynamic parameters; hence both protocols can be used safely in dogs as per the requirements of the procedure.
Estimates of Maternal Effect and (co)Variance Components for BodyWeight at Different Ages by Animal Model in Chokla Sheep
Authors: Choudhary Garima , Pannu Urmila , Narula H.K. , Gowane Gopal , Chopra Ashish , Poonia N.K. , Nehara Manju
Published: June 2024

Background: For this study, information was gathered on 6785 Chokla sheep at the Central Sheep and Wool Research Institute in Bikaner, Rajasthan, India and documented between 1974 and 2020. Methods: (Co)variance components and genetic parameters of weight at birth (BW), weaning (WW), 6, 9 and 12 months of age (6W,9W and YW, respectively) of Chokla sheep, were estimated by average algorithm restricted maximum likelihood (AIREML), fitting six different animal models with various combinations of direct and maternal effects. Result: The direct heritability estimates increased from birth to twelve months of age and values for all the body weight traits except birth weight (0.170) were moderate (0.30-0.50). The maternal influence diminished as age increases and maternal genetic effect (m2) was found to be important and sizeable at weaning stage (0.181). Maternal permanent environmental variance was found to influence the early body weight traits. Negative and high estimate of covariance between direct and maternal effects, resulted in highly inflated values of additive heritability. In this condition, it is more useful to use the total heritability (h2t) for evaluation of the response for selection based on phenotypic values to prevent the use of biased estimates of additive heritability. Genetic and phenotypic correlations among body weights at different ages were positive and ranged from medium to high.

Background: Kapuas Hulu is a district in West Kalimantan Province, Indonesia, which is famous for its production of kratom (Mitragyna speciosa), a traditional medicinal plant. Kratom is the main cultivated plant carried out by farmers. However, data regarding the physicochemical properties of kratom plantation soil are still limited, especially regarding the heavy metal content. This research aimed to determine the physicochemical properties and heavy metal content of soil planted with kratom. Methods: This research was conducted on alluvial soil and peat planted with kratom. This research is survey of 2 fields where sampling from each land was carried out using the diagonal method, where 5 sub-samples were taken per land and composited, except for volume Weight. Result: Mineral land and peat land can be used as land for Kratom cultivation because the physicochemical properties of both lands support the growth of Kratom plus the heavy metal content is below the critical threshold.
Magnesium in Soils of Agricultural Landscapes of Western Siberia
Authors: Boiko V.S. , Yakimenko V.N. , Timokhin A.Yu.
Published: June 2024

Background: Western Siberia has great potential for crop and livestock production; it is limited by degradation of soil fertility due to depletion of biophilic elements, including Mg. Intensification of agricultural production requires monitoring and optimization of magnesium nutrition of field crops. This study aimed at investigating changes in content of magnesium forms Gleyic Chernozems and Luvic Greyzemic Phaeozem in the Western Siberia during their long-term agricultural use. Methods: Soil samples were taken from the fields of long-term experiments in 1978, 1988 and 2019. Three cores were taken from a soil layer 0-20, 20-40 cm thick and combined into composite samples. Composite samples were kept in the archives of the institute. Chemical analysis of composite soil samples was carried out in 2020. Chemical analyzes of soil and plants were carried out by conventional methods. Magnesium forms were extracted: easily exchangeable with 0.0025 M CaCl2 solution, exchangeable with 1 M CH3COONH4, non-exchangeable with 1 M HNO3 and determined on an atomic absorption spectrometer. Result: Systematic use of the ammonia form of nitrogen fertilizers (60-120 kg a.m./ha per year) led to a decrease in mobile forms of magnesium in the most root-inhabited soil layer. The removal of magnesium by potatoes was small (8-10 kg/ha, 80 % falls on the tops). Consequently, a significant decrease in the reserves of magnesium available to plants in soils is associated not so much with the alienation of the element with yield, but with leaching processes due to the displacement of magnesium from the soil-absorbing complex by ammonium ions introduced with fertilizers and also, probably, potassium.

Tax Revenue in Emerging Markets and Developing Countries: Does Digital Finance Matter?
Authors: Azoa Balengla Tania M. , Keneck Massil Joseph , Noah Alphonse , Nomo Belaya Bernard C.
Published: June 2024

This paper investigates whether adopting mobile money services influences non resource tax revenues in emerging markets and developing countries. Using a sample of 97 countries over the period 1990–2021, our empirical analyses, based on instrumental variables, system-GMM, and endogenous switching regression methods, suggest that digital finance leads to more tax revenue. We also find that bill payments, merchant payments, person-to-person payments, and person-to government payments have a greater impact on tax revenues than other mobile money services. The potential positive impact mechanisms are the decline of the informal sector, the reduction of corruption, and the facilitation of international remittance inflows.

Authors: Espinoza Córdova Jorge Luis , Bernardino López Sergio , Córdova Ruíz Zulema
Published: June 2024

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the communication strategies of 7 craft breweries in Mexicali, Baja California; Mexico, which are based on the use and promotion on social networks, emails, web pages, or audiovisual content platforms.
MATERIAL AND METHOD: Through a survey, the perception of its clients was measured and examined through an exploratory factor analysis to extract the factors that make it up, corroborate the independence between them and explain the greatest amount of variance.
RESULTS: Three factors were formed that make up the communication strategy of microbreweries: development of loyalty, proximity to the consumer and presence on social networks. These describe the presence, frequency of use of digital media and the reach of the brand through interaction with craft beer consumers.
CONCLUSIONS: It is highlighted that there is little proximity to the consumer in digital media and companies do not have a defined communication strategy and use the various media interchangeably, without knowing the reach of each one.

OBJECTIVE: Determine the impact of alcohol consumption on the academic performance of Economics students.
MATERIAL AND METHOD: The research design is descriptive and cross-sectional. The population under study comprises a sample of 50 students enrolled in the bachelor’s degree in economics of the Academic Division of Economic-Administrative Sciences. Likewise, for the collection of information, a questionnaire was applied.
RESULTS: The consumption of alcoholic beverages did not represent a problem for the Economics students, nor for their academic performance, since the level of consumption was low and the high consumption is during vacation periods, not presenting a risk for them. Furthermore, they know the consequences and risks of consuming alcohol and most of them have considered quitting.
CONCLUSIONS: The consumption of alcoholic beverages by Economics students is low, they even responded to consume only during vacation periods. Furthermore, they attend their classes, complete their homework, and there is no risk in their relationship with teachers or classmates, that is, as long as they control their consumption levels, there is no impact on their academic performance.
Estereotipos en el Liderazgo Femenino
Authors: Delgado Vázquez María Soraya , Núñez Hernández Luz María , Silva Acosta Frida Camila
Published: June 2024

Este ensayo se adentra en el tema de los estereotipos en el liderazgo femenino, analizando cómo estos prejuicios y creencias limitantes afectan la participación y el ascenso de las mujeres en roles de liderazgo. Por esta razón, los estereotipos en el liderazgo femenino son un tema relevante y complejo que se enfrenta a varios desafíos, que pueden ser asociados negativamente a los rasgos atribuidos a la debilidad.
De manera que, se expone a los estereotipos de género como imágenes socialmente compartidas, rígidas y generalizadoras, que describen los rasgos que se afirma poseen las personas de un determinado grupo social.  Esto puede resultar en una falta de confianza en las mujeres, en la autoexclusión de los puestos de responsabilidad, dificultando la ascensión de las mujeres a los altos cargos.  Asimismo, se plantea la necesidad de un cambio cultural y organizacional que promueva la diversidad y la equidad de género en las empresas.
Finalmente, se considera que para la construcción de sociedades más equitativas e incluyentes es importante desafiar estos estereotipos, demostrar que es esencial cambiar las percepciones de lo que significa ser líder, promover la confianza en las mujeres y derribar el techo de cristal en las organizaciones.

DETERMINANTS OF CAPITAL STRUCTURE IN INDONESIAN COMPANIES FROM 2011 – 2022
Authors: Budhidharma Valentino , Wilar Gideon Caprio
Published: June 2024

The purpose of this study is to examine the variables influencing capital structure in Indonesian businesses. The dependent factors in this case are the debt to asset ratio (DAR) and the debt-to-equity ratio (DER), while the independent variables are profitability, growth potential, size, dividend policy, liquidity, and business risk. All industries in Indonesia are represented in the research sample, except for the banking industry. The panel regression analytical method is used. Furthermore, Random Forest's variable importance analysis is used in this work. The outcome demonstrated that dividends, tangibility, profitability, and liquidity are important components of both DAR and DER models. Strong tangible assets raise both DAR and DER, but favorable profitability and liquidity typically lower them. Additionally, businesses that pay out larger dividends typically have smaller debt loads. Therefore, businesses should concentrate on sustaining strong profitability as it is closely related to sales. To guarantee continuous liquidity, which enables businesses to fulfill both short- and long-term obligations, care must be taken while paying out dividends.

The mission of the NCATS Division of Rare Diseases Research Innovation (DRDRI), formerly known as the Office of Rare Diseases Research, is to advance rare diseases research to benefit patients. DRDRI is part of the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences, one of the 27 components of the US National Institutes of Health. DRDRI facilitates and coordinates NIH-wide activities involving rare diseases research, as well as directly supporting rare diseases research activities. These activities include the development and maintenance of a centralized database on rare diseases; collaboration and coordination with organizations focused on orphan products development and rare diseases research across the globe, advising the Office of the NIH Director on matters related to NIH-sponsored research involving rare diseases; and responding to information and policy requests about rare diseases within the NIH. DRDRI also supports various rare diseases research activities, including the Rare Diseases Clinical Research Network, rare disease-related conference grants, and assessment of the costs of untreated rare diseases. In addition, several of the projects DRDRI is supporting are “many diseases at a time” translational approaches for rare diseases, which emphasize leveraging commonalities across multiple rare diseases. These include the support of “basket trials” based on shared molecular etiologies across multiple rare diseases, as well as therapeutic platforms for the treatment of monogenic diseases, such as gene therapy and genome editing. This Perspective will provide an overview and summary of these various activities, noting where relevant our collaborative partnerships within the U.S. and internationally.
Ethical issues and proposed solutions in conducting practical assessment of medical students involving patients
Authors: Chandra Ankit
Published: June 2024

Practical assessment involving patients plays a vital role in medical education, allowing students to demonstrate their clinical competencies. However, there are significant ethical concerns associated with these assessments that require careful consideration and resolution. The primary ethical concerns include violation of patient autonomy, lack of written informed consent, power dynamics, cultural differences, potential harm to patients, breach of privacy and confidentiality, discomfort to admitted patients, financial loss to patients, impact on other patients’ care, and delays in workup/procedures. To address these concerns, measures such as respecting patient autonomy, obtaining written informed consent, ensuring patient safety, exploring alternative methods, providing reimbursement, resource planning, creating a supportive environment, developing cultural competency, putting in place a feedback system, prioritising patient care, and implementing ethical oversight and monitoring are recommended. The formulation of a guideline could be a crucial starting point, and it should be integrated into a broader ethical framework that encompasses education and training, ethical oversight, ongoing monitoring, and a culture that prioritises ethical conduct.

In recent times, the practice of body modification in sociocultural, psychological, and art studies contexts has gained a new impetus for research. This article presents the results of the analysis of pigments found on the sur-face of stone artifacts identified as tattooing tools from the assemblage of layer VII of the Upper Paleolithic site of Ushki V (13–12 ka calBP, Kamchatka Peninsula). The aim of this study is to reconstruct the formulation of paints discovered on the surface of stone tools from the collection of Ushki V, that could have been used for tattooing. The reconstruction was carried out by means of determining the composition and microstructure of the paints using scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX). The conclusions about the structure of colouring substances and the composition of paints are based on the element mapping method, which allows determination of the relationships of chemical elements and establishing the chemical com-position of individual components of the microstructure. Seven samples of red and yellow paint from the surface of six tools (carvers) have been thoroughly analysed. As a result, it has been found that three recipes were used for the manufacture of the pigments. The first (red paint) was based on mixing crushed mineral pigment (hema-tite) with organic binder of animal or vegetable origin. The second (yellow paint) implied the use of limonite, or-ganic binder and a thickener (aluminosilicate material or crushed bone). The third recipe (dark orange paint) in-cluded the compound of limonite and organic binder without thickener. The comparison of the formulations with previously obtained data on the analysis of paints from Ushki V allows for the conclusion that there were continu-ous technological traditions determined by the desired color and purpose of the paint. It has been established that the formulations have analogies both among the assemblages of other Stone Age sites of Eurasia and in ethno-graphic materials. Theoretical and practical significance of this research lies within extending of focused studies of the culture of peoples of the North and initiating of comparative research into similar Late Paleolithic and Neolithic complexes in the territories adjacent to Kamchatka and in the New World.
Financial position of Islamic spiritual leaders in the Tobolsk Governorate in the second half of the 19th — early 20th century
Authors: Mavlyutova G.Sh.
Published: June 2024

In this paper, we analyse the material well-being of Muslim clerics who served in the Tobolsk Governorate. In 1912, there were 326 of them. Most of Islamic spiritual leaders were rural. They were rewarded in-kind and in cash. The in-kind form — grain, hay, food, etc. — prevailed. The factors affecting the material maintenance of Muslim clerics included the number of believers in the religious community, the level of the believers' income, and the presence of other occupations among the clergy. These factors resulted in different levels of material well-being of mullahs in the Tobolsk Governorate in the post-reform period. In times of natural disasters and crop failures, not all members of the religious community could reward imams and muezzins. Under these conditions, it was of great importance that the clergy had other occupations apart from religious activities. The degree of religiosity of the Tatar and Bukhara population also played an important role. The sources of subsistence of Islamic spiritual leaders in the Tobolsk Governorate included the deduction of zakat or public ploughing of land, payment for the performance of ritual rites, donations (Sadaqah, awqaf), tuition fees in denominational schools (maktaba and ma-drasah), funds from agricultural and other activities. Overall, Muslim clergy in the Tobolsk Governorate had a higher level of material support compared to the majority of believers.

Advancements in modern technology provide teachers with opportunities to develop their skills in using media and teaching materials. This shift helps transform the instructional paradigms used in school learning processes, making education more modern and high-quality. Therefore, teachers need to be proficient in using information technology to enhance classroom learning, especially in subjects like crafts and entrepreneurship. This study is a quantiative research that focuses on examining the impact of Google Classroom on students' learning motivation, interest, and outcomes. The research was conducted at SMK Negeri 1 Tualang, Tualang District, Siak Regency, with a sample size of 95 eleventh-grade students. The data collected from this study were deemed valid and reliable, particularly concerning the influence of Google Classroom on learning motivation. The research findings were obtained through the use of questionnaires, with 33 respondents, providing data on the Google Classroom variable with a maximum score of 40. This indicates that there is a significant difference between the learning outcomes of students who were taught using the Online Google Classroom Learning Method and those taught using the conventional learning model in the subject of Crafts and Entrepreneurship for the 10th-grade students of SMK Negeri 1 Tualang in the Odd Semester of the Academic Year 2023/2024.

Published: June 2024

Making signals better than noise in communication has always been challenging for scientists. Researchers have been working on it in different ways. The computer-aided geometric design is a new research field emerging from the collaboration of computer algorithms and mathematical logic towards curve designing, in which the subdivision schemes used have a key position due to their flexible and smooth behaviour. Using parameters in these schemes allows for increased control over designing. A parameterized framework for generating a wide range of subdivision surfaces with tunable degrees of shape control is presented in the  family of schemes. The properties of the proposed family make it suitable for use in isogeometric analysis, computer animation, and geometric modelling. The purpose of this paper is to construct and analyze a family of 4-point ternary subdivision schemes to smooth the curves based on the Laurant polynomial. This family is generated by tuning the weight parameter. The scheme is analysed for its different properties. The scheme has  continuity. Visual performance of the subdivision scheme is also provided as an application of this proposed study.
