Authors: A. Broekman , V. Garófano-Gómez , F. Martínez-Capel , A. Sánchez-Plaza
Published: June 2021

El proyecto REDAPTA, “Espacios de Gobernanza para la Adaptación al Cambio Global en Ríos Mediterráneos”, desarrolló sus actividades de forma simultánea en las cuencas de los ríos Tordera (Cataluña) y Serpis (Comunidad Valenciana). El proyecto trabajó en colaboración con dos “espacios de gobernanza”: la “Taula del Delta i de la Baixa Tordera” y la “Plataforma Ciutadana per a la Defensa del Riu Serpis”. Se siguió una metodología para el proceso de co-diseño, con el objetivo de intercambiar conocimientos y fomentar la deliberación, y el resultado fue un documento estratégico de adaptación, para cada cuenca, que incluye diez medidas concretas de adaptación co-producidas con los actores. El segundo resultado del REDAPTA fue un manual que describe los conceptos y el enfoque aplicados, las principales etapas metodológicas del proceso de co-diseño y las lecciones aprendidas durante su aplicación. Con el objetivo de concienciar a la ciudadanía y visibilizar la importancia del seguimiento participativo de actuaciones de mejora fluvial, se realizó una actividad en campo en ambos ríos, con una primera parte de capacitación y una segunda de toma de información. Los participantes pudieron conocer un tramo del río y, utilizando las herramientas digitales desarrolladas por el proyecto, pudieron registrar diferentes observaciones e indicadores para su caracterización básica. Por último, con el fin de promover el enfoque innovador del proyecto, se llevó a cabo una jornada de intercambio de experiencias entre diferentes organizaciones, explorando su interés en crear una “Red Ibérica de Espacios de Gobernanza para la Gestión del Agua”.

Integrating the World of Work Into Initial TVET Teacher Education in South Africa
Authors: Van der Bijl Andre J.
Published: June 2021

South African Policy on Professional Qualifications for Lecturers in Technical and Vocational Education and Training (2013) provides a framework of professional qualifications for lecturers in the TVET system, which requires work-integrated learning placements in both education and industry settings. South Africa, however, does not have a convention of industry placement for vocational lecturers. This absence led the Department of Higher Education and Training, with the European Union, to co-fund a research and development project, the ‘effective delivery of the work-integrated learning (WIL) component of TVET and adult and community education and training lecturer qualification programmes’. The key output of this project was the development of a comprehensive curriculum framework for the industry-WIL component of the qualifications. This paper provides a reflective analysis of the multiple institutions, the national process through which the curriculum framework was developed and the knowledge generated through it.
Dimensions of Academic Performance in the Context of Nepali Higher Education Institutions
Authors: Paudel Krishna Prasad
Published: June 2021

Academic performance is the driving force of academic institutions to carry out innovative ideas. This research aims to identify how the faculty members are practising their knowledge of academic activities to enhance academic discourses in their academic life. The academic discourses are determined by the academic activities of the faculty and these enhance the capabilities of both faculty members and students. In this regard, applying knowledge creation theory, the study explored the dimensions of academic activities practised by the faculty members in higher educational institutions. Adopting a survey method, the data was collected from 445 faculty members from four universities of Nepal. To identify the key dimensions of academic performance, factor analysis was used. The analysis identified four dimensions of academic performance as research and publication, innovation, interactive learning, and capacity building. The study claims that research and publication are less prioritized in Nepali academia while capacity building is identified as a new priority area in the context of university.
Role of Professional Associations in Benin Dual Apprenticeship
Authors: Nouatin Guy Sourou
Published: June 2021

This paper analyses the involvement and the role played by a professional association in Benin dual apprenticeship. This research utilised a qualitative method using literature analysis with desk research and a semi-structured interview. In total, 56 respondents from staff members of professional associations at local, district and national levels, staff of the public sector, donor agencies and craftsmen were selected through purposive and snowball sampling techniques. To analyse data, I used the theory of institutional change, games models or strategic interactions theory and the conceptual framework of the curriculum value chain of the education programme. Results of the research show that the institutionalisation process of professional associations in the crafts sector started with professional photographers, hairdressers and sewing/cutting in 1950. Professional associations have a strong involvement in the implementation phase of the CQP programme. In the curriculum design phase, they are involved at a moderate level. And in the evaluation phase, they have low involvement. Such involvements in the last two phases can be understood by the low literacy level of most craftsmen who work in the informal sector.
Integrating Technopreneurship Education in Nigerian Universities: Strategy for Decreasing Youth Unemployment
Authors: Suleiman Yusuf
Published: June 2021

As of the third quarter of 2018, the rate of unemployment stood at 23.13 percent as revealed by the National Bureau of Statistics. In view of the foregoing, this study proposes technopreneurship education as an effective strategy that can be used to reduce unemployment. Sequential mixed-methods research designs (quantitative and qualitative) were adopted for the study. The population for the quantitative part consists of 300 level students of universities in Kwara State, while lecturers and artisans in the universities formed the population for the qualitative part. Stratified, quota and random techniques were used to select 370 respondents while purposive and convenience techniques were adopted to select two lecturers and artisan. Research instruments titled “Technopreneurship Education and Business Intention Questionnaire (TBQ) and “Interview Protocol on Technopreneurship Education and Business Intention Questionnaire (IPTEQ)” were used to collect relevant data. Findings from both quantitative and qualitative methods revealed that the three dimensions of technopreneurship education (i.e., entrepreneurship course, entrepreneurship practical and internet facility) were significantly related to business intention. Also, findings show that inadequate facility and financial constraint constitute challenges that hinder technopreneurship, while adequate facility and availability of funds were perceived as the remedies to the challenges. Based on the findings of the study, it was recommended that government, banks and other stakeholders in education should assist universities in terms of providing financial assistance to students with business intention.
Effect of Governance on Educational Performance in Nepal
Authors: Khadka Jiban
Published: June 2021

Good governance often seems to have accelerated educational performance. Stepping onto the contribution of governance to the education, this paper examines the effect of Worldwide Governance Indicators produced by Kaufmann et al. (1999) on Educational Performance (EP) of Nepal during the years from 1996 to 2018. The six indicators of WGIs: political stability and absence of violence, government effectiveness, voice and accountability, regulatory quality, control of corruption and rule of law are used as independent variables, and the educational performance (student learning achievement and education index) as a dependent variable.  The results, based on the data collected from the secondary sources, derived from multiple-line graphs and the regression model shows that the majority of WGIs insignificantly explained the educational performance across the years. One indicator namely government effectiveness is found as a negative significant predictor of EP. The findings of this study suggest to reform in the existing level of WGIs for the better educational performance.

Osmanlı Sarayında Bir Dinler Tarihçisi: Max Müller’in Türkiye Ziyaretinin Değerlendirilmesi
Authors: TÜRKAN Ahmet
Published: June 2021

Max Müller 19. yüzyıl İngiltere’sinin önemli din araştırmacılarındandır. Dinler Tarihinin kurucusu olarak kabul edilen Müller Doğu Dinleri araştırmaları ile dikkati çeker. Onun Hinduizmle ilgili araştırmaları İngiltere’nin kolonist anlayışı ile aynı paralellikte devam eder. Dinî araştırmalarda bilimsel disipline önem veren Müller’in Doğu ile ilgili tanımlamaların çoğu yine Batı merkezlidir. İslam ve Türklerle ilgili değerlendirmelerinde de durum böyledir. Türklere dair olumsuz düşünceleri daha çok Osmanlı’nın Anadolu ve Balkanlardaki hâkimiyeti ile ilgilidir. Ancak Müller’in 1893 yılında eşi ile birlikte İstanbul ve Bursa’yı ziyareti tümüyle olmasa da pek çok önyargısını ortadan kaldırır. Bu ziyarette Müller, Sultan Abdülhamid’le görüşür ve sıcak ilişki kurar. Sultana editörlük yaptığı Doğunun Kutsal Kitapları’nı takdim eder ve Sultan Abdülhamid de Müller ailesine çeşitli hediyeler verir. Müller İngiltere’ye döndükten sonra da İstanbul’da yaşadıklarına ve Sultanla ilgili görüşmelerine sıkça yer verir. Osmanlı aleyhine zamanla Batı kamuoyunda değişen ortam Müller’in düşüncelerinde de değişikliğe neden olmaktadır. Ancak bu defaki tahlilleri tamamen siyah veya beyaz değildir. İstanbul’da gördüklerinden dolayı düşüncelerinde gri tonlar oluşmuştur. Bu anlamda Max Müller’in İstanbul ziyareti, oryantalist bakışa ve ötekini anlama açısından sahadan alınan verilerin ne kadar önemli olduğuna büyük katkı yapmaktadır.
Social Construction of Blockchain on Social Media: Framing Public Discourses on Twitter
Authors: Chow-White Peter , Al-Rawi Ahmed , Lusoli Alberto , Phan Vu Thuy Anh
Published: June 2021

Blockchain has become a hot topic in technology, finance, regulation, and the wider society in recent years. Along the way, various users and interests have shaped the technology materially and discursively. This paper investigates the debate taking place on Twitter surrounding blockchain technology to understand the nature and development of its online public discourses. We collected and analyzed a Twitter dataset containing a total of 267,512 tweets that reference blockchain by 105,734 unique users. We conducted a mixed method research study involving qualitative and quantitative approaches. The results indicate that the majority of the retweeted posts are educational and promotional in nature, while the lowest numbers of frames are critical or skeptical of the new technology. The most active users seem to be largely involved in promoting the technology including some that are human created bots. The paper employs the theory of Social Construction of Technology (SCOT) that emphasizes the way our actions and discourses shape technology. We argue that a number of active Twitter users, for a variety of motives including financial ones, are shaping the discourse about blockchain by mostly framing it as a positive development in the global market, allegedly creating a revolution in the financial sector. More importantly, the social construction of technology on Twitter does not seem to be exclusively organic, for it includes bots and online spammers who mostly tweet promotional blockchain hashtags.
Effects of Website Credibility and Brand Trust on Responses to Online Behavioral Advertising
Authors: Xu Xiaowen , Wu Tai-Yee , Atkin David
Published: June 2021

Online behavioral advertising that tracks user data has witnessed a dramatic increase in popularity. Using Psychological Reactance Theory, this study examines the effects of brand trust and website credibility on responses to behavioral advertising via privacy concerns. A 2 (brand trust: high vs. low) by 2 (website credibility: high vs. low) between-subjects experiment was conducted (N = 424). Results suggest that while brand trust influences purchase intention—as mediated via affective reactance—website credibility only exerts modest effects on the dependent variables. Implications for user perception factors and contextual factors—including ad effectiveness in the digital personalized marketing realm—are discussed.
Extending the Hyperpersonal Model to Observing Others: The Hyperperception Model
Authors: Carpenter Christopher , Spottswood Erin
Published: June 2021

Much of our Social Network Site (SNS) and associated mobile application use involves observing and interpreting other people’s online presentations and interactions. This paper proposes an extension of the hyperpersonal model (Walther, 1996), called the hyperperception model, which can be used to explain and predict the potential psychological and relational effects that result from observing other people interact on SNSs and mobile apps. In this new model the observer of other people’s online interactions is the focus rather than the original hyperpersonal’s focus on the dyad. Hyperperception effects occur when an observer perceives higher intensity in others’ SNS interactions than those observed perceive. Following the hyperpersonal model, this extension identifies channel, sender, receiver, and feedback loop components that encourage hyperperceptions of others’ relationship by observers on SNSs. Applications to a variety of interpersonal phenomena are discussed.

Results showed the visual interface design skill is the most needed design skill for UX designers. For UX researchers, the research skills of usability lab studies, moderated remote usability studies, usability benchmarking, and interviews are most needed. Information Technology & Service and Computer & Network Security are industries that have the highest need in UX designers and UX researchers. The study suggests higher education institutes especially mass communications programs may need to consider adopting the UX concept and skills into its teaching agenda.
The Dark Side of Media and Technology: A 21st Century Guide to Media and Technological Literacy [Book Review]
Authors: Gawel Hanna
Published: June 2021

The twenty-first century can be described as a challenging time to become a media and technologically literate. Insufficient information has the effect of ruining lives, and we all have a responsibility to fight it where we see it. Research has mostly concentrated on the “bright side” of media and technology, aiming to understand and support in leveraging the multiple possibilities afforded of its usage. As the main channel of communication for a world is an inseparable duo of media and technology, it also has its dark side. The current worldwide misinformation and surrounding “information glut” (Postman, 1995), and waves of cyberbullying, addictive use, trolling, online witch hunts, fake news, and privacy abuse demonstrated the need for a new approach to this problem. In The Dark Side of Media and Technology: A 21st Century Guide To Media and Technological Literacy, editor Edward Downs bring together contributors to explore the dark side that exists in media and technology and sheds some light on the dimmer matters of human interaction with media and technology. The forty-six authors develop an understanding of four primary outcomes of the human relationship to media and technology in 25 interesting, highly readable chapters. Each chapter introduces the reader with a meticulously developed theoretical background and latest research findings, presented by a remarkable group of multi-disciplinary experts and researchers. Their work is the proof of the correctness of sentence, that “media and technology can do both great and horrible things for people” (p. 2).

The second volume of Ethics for a Digital Age edited by Bastiaan Vanacker and Don Heider (2018) highlights research presented at the fifth and sixth Annual International Symposia on Digital Ethics. The volume features ten essays organized under three banner topics that include 1) Trust, Privacy, and Corporate Responsibility; 2) Technology, Ethics, and the Shifting Role of Journalism; and 3) Ethics and Ontology. Together, the essays aim to invigorate conversations about ethical issues in professional and philosophical contexts. In this review, I first provide a synopsis of each section and its corresponding essays to give readers a sense of the depth and breadth of topics covered in the volume. I conclude the review by identifying themes that unite the essays and broadly contribute to this robust field of inquiry.
“In That Water You Could Rinse Things Clean”
Authors: Takala Elina
Published: June 2021

The aim of this article is to explore the depiction of baptism in Marilynne Robinson's Lila. In a way that is unique for contemporary fiction, the protagonist, Lila, seeks in baptism a relief of her chronic feelings of shame and a confirmation that she is loved. However, after her baptism the Calvinist doctrine of election drives Lila to emotional and theological despair. I suggest that the Calvinist notion of adoption in baptism is a unifying thread in Lila's theological and psychological dilemma, emphasized by her reading of the Book of Ezekiel. From a theological point of view, in baptism one changes ontologically for once and for all. But Lila's story shows that grappling with this transformation can be an emotionally painful process. Robinson depicts her protagonist as a theologian in her own right. This is significant in a novel in which the theological authority lies with male pastors and theologians, regardless of whether they are present in theological books or in religious communities in the 1950s Midwest. Lila understands in a mystical experience of heaven that she will be able to bring her non-Christian loved ones with her into heaven. This unusual rewriting of sacramental theology signifies how Lila constructs her own theology; a rewriting that connects baptism with Barth's universalism and his idea of restoring all humanity. Thus, I argue in this article that in Lila Robinson incorporates a recurring idea of sacramental theology into her fiction, a final restoration in which grace mends the relationships severed in and by life.

Published: June 2021

Aims: The main objective of the present research work was to evaluate the (phytochemical, biochemical, and antimicrobial) properties of Muscat of Alexandria leaf powder and develop new functional dairy product using the mixture lactic bacteria and vine leaf powder as prebiotic for health applications (gastric and cardiac problems, etc.). Material and Methods: Various nutritional parameters of the vine leaf powder namely: pH, acidity, water content, ashes, salts, fatty acids) were determined. Also, their bioactive substances (TPC, total flavonoids content, tannin content, soluble-water polysaccharides) were extracted and quantified using referenced methods. The evaluation of antimicrobial activity of these substances was carried out by disc method. Vine leaf powder and aqueous extract were used to improve acidification kinetic. Also, functional yogurt using the mixture (lactic bacteria and vine leaf powder as prebiotic) was prepared. Results: The main results demonstrate that, the vine leaf powder contains high-value components such as salts with a high k/Na ratio, fatty acids (palmitic, linolenic and oleic) and bioactives (polyphenols, tannins and polysaccharides). The antimicrobial activity of these bioactive metabolites varies depending on the resistance of the strains tested. On the other hand, vine leaf TPC and polysaccharides act as an antifungal against (C. albicans and A. niger) and increase the acidification rate and consequently the growth and activity of the lactic bacteria in the yogurt, which suggests a probable prebiotic effect. Conclusions: Through this study, we have demonstrated the high content of vine leaves in several bioactive compounds such as polyphenols, flavonoids, tannins and polysaccharides. These compounds display an interesting antimicrobial activity and an extensive effect on the activity of lactic bacteria, which suggests a prebiotic effect.

Modeling household relocation choice: An egalitarian bargaining approach and a comparative study
Authors: Yao Mingzhu , Wang Donggen
Published: June 2021

Accompanying the rapid urban expansion and fast population growth is a progressive trend of residential relocation in developing countries, which necessitates a thorough understanding of households’ relocation decisions. Previous studies generally treated home relocation as an individual or unitary household decision, ignoring the interactive and collaborative decision-making mechanisms that household members may adopt when making group decisions. In view of this research gap, this study examines the feasibility of applying the egalitarian bargaining approach to simulating households’ group decisions concerning residential relocation and further compares its performance with the Nash bargaining and the conventional utilitarian approach. Moreover, the study experiments with the possibility of accommodating three possible group decision-making mechanisms using the latent class modeling framework. The proposed modeling approaches are applied to an empirical case study in Beijing. Results show that models based on the egalitarian and Nash bargaining principles have better model fits than the utilitarian principle, suggesting the importance of considering egalitarianism when modeling household members’ collaborative choice on residential relocation. Moreover, the model based on Nash bargaining has the best model fit, indicating that instead of merely seeking egalitarianism or utilitarianism, household members are more likely to strike a balance between fairness and efficiency.
Modeling enterprise location choice decision behavior
Authors: Y Nguyen Cao
Published: June 2021

This study presents a location choice model that incorporates urban spatial effects for enterprises. A modeling framework is developed to analyze decisions regarding location choice for enterprises using a series of discrete choice models including multinomial logit without any urban spatial effects, multinomial logit incorporating urban spatial effects, and mixed logit incorporating urban spatial effects. In this framework, urban spatial effects, such as the urban spatial correlation among enterprises in deterministic terms and the urban spatial correlation among zones in the error term, are captured by mixed logit models in particular and discrete choice models in general.
The results indicate that the urban spatial effects and the land prices in a given zone strongly affect the decision-making process of all the enterprises in the Tokyo metropolitan area. Moreover, the important role of urban spatial effects in the proposed model will be clarification through comparing the three above models. This comparison will be implemented on the basis of three types of indicators such as the log likelihood ratio, Akaike information indicator, and hit ratio of each model.
Shorter commutes, but for whom? Comparing the distributional effects of Bus Rapid Transit on commute times in Cape Town, South Africa, and Barranquilla, Colombia
Authors: Santana Palacios Manuel , Rayle Lisa
Published: June 2021

Bus rapid transit has become an increasingly popular investment in cities in the Global South, where policy discourse often positions BRT as a pro-poor investment. Planners usually expect BRT to reduce commute times in urban areas, particularly for economically disadvantaged populations, thus reducing mobility gaps between transit users across different socioeconomic population groups. Despite increased interest in BRT, there is surprisingly limited research testing these assumptions. Using data from a retrospective survey administered in Barranquilla, Colombia, and Cape Town, South Africa, we investigated whether BRT contributes to reducing commute time gaps between socioeconomic populations. Our comparative and distributional analyses indicate that, while BRT narrowed the gap in commute times in Cape Town, it did not contribute to closing the gap in Barranquilla. We argue that this contradiction may, in part, be explained by the degree to which BRT route configuration responded to the urban form and pre-BRT transit conditions in each city—two factors often overlooked in academic literature and discussions surrounding BRT planning. We close by providing policy recommendations that promote more equitable planning practices and recognize the links between transport and land uses in the Global South urban context.

Abstract: Indonesia is a country that has abundant nickel laterite resources, from Sulawesi to Papua. Therefore, the researchers analyzed the distribution pattern and thickness of the nickel leterite deposits to obtain the distribution pattern of the ore zones of the laterite nickel deposits based on the surface topography. The method used is to analyze the drilling sample with an X-ray spectometer, analyze the topography, morphology and create a cross-sectional profile between the drill axes to analyze the distribution pattern of the laterite nickel ore deposit zone. The data generated from this study is a hilly topography with a wavy morphology, slanted, and sloping, with a slope of 20-160. The vertical cross section of the sediment uses overburden parameters with Ni content < 0.90% – > 4%. The cross-section and distribution pattern of laterite nickel deposits are divided into 3 colors, namely brown for Ni content < 0.90%, yellow for Ni content 0.91% – 1.50%, and green for Ni content > 1.51%. Based on the cross-sectional correlation on the sloping topography, it was found that high grades and thick and hilly topography found high grades but thin thicknesses. Overall, laterite nickel content ranges from 8 to 16 meters.
