{Provisions have been made to address linguistic diversity in various international treaties, such as human rights, child rights, minority rights, and indigenous peoples' rights. Nepal has signed various international treaties and memoranda of understanding and has made clear provisions for addressing multilingualism in constitutions, by-laws, curricula, educational plans and programs, but such provisions have not been implemented effectively.  The impact of the long monolingual policy of the past and the lack of practical experience in multilingual education has posed various challenges in addressing multilingualism. Lack of linguistic survey and analysis of the overall multilingualism of Nepal, scattering of different language speakers, unequal distribution of many mother tongue students in the same class, distrust of parents towards mother tongue and love of English and Nepali language, skilled and trained manpower for curriculum development and teaching Problems such as lack of multilingual students in the same class, lack of standard textbooks have added challenges in addressing multilingualism. In addition, most of the languages ​​do not have written form, even the written language has problems in standard selection, script problems, lack of necessary infrastructure and lack of coordination among the concerned bodies are also challenging.}

Authors: Green Lucy Santos , Chassereau Karen
Published: June 2022

The last ten years in school library research reflect an expanded definition of information literacy along with a stronger emphasis on in-depth information literacy development, concluding that a fundamental shift in instruction provided by school librarians is needed; one that not only helps students find information, but develops students’ abilities to interact with, and learn from information, engaging with it in critical ways. Collaboratively designed and implemented through an instructional partnership between the school librarian and a classroom teacher, Guided Inquiry instruction helps students gain meaningful understanding and develop a personal perspective by exploring, comparing, and contrasting multiple information sources. Despite the frequently touted benefits of instructional partnerships between school librarians and classroom teachers, these structures are rarely, if ever, modeled by school library and pre-service teacher educators. This study examined the process and challenges inherit in designing and modeling Guided Inquiry units of instruction, through a school librarian instructional partnership model, in pre-service teacher education, exploring its impact on teacher candidate willingness to identify school librarians as co-teachers. Findings from the present study indicate Guided Inquiry units co-taught by school library educators and teacher educators help teacher candidates both successfully navigate the research process and develop a mental model of the school librarian as a co-teacher.

Fibrolipoma of Neck - A Case Report
Authors: Murali Preethi
Published: June 2022

Introduction: Lipoma is the most common benign mesenchymal tumor of adipose tissue. Their occurrence in the head and neck is relatively rare. Lipomas in the neck region are rare tumors that usually present as slowly growing painless masses, found in the lateral portions of the neck. Case Report: Here, we report a case of lipoma lying over the right nape of the neck in a 26-year-old female. A pedunculated overgrowth was gradually progressive in size with no other complaints. It was soft, mobile and non-tender. It was clinically diagnosed as a fibroepithelial polyp and later on, a histopathological examination was performed which revealed benign lipoma. Surgical excision is an elective treatment. However, an accurate differential diagnosis, postsurgical histological examination and careful follow-up are required. The purpose of this case report is to recognize rare lipomas that occur in unusual locations in the head and neck in order to identify them when they cause diagnostic problems. Conclusion: Lipomas can occur in any site of the body, However, rare variants in unusual sites should not be ignored by clinicians and should be sent for histopathological diagnosis for a confirmed diagnosis.

Published: June 2022

This article investigates the problem of agricultural yield prediction, including that of soybeans. Soya is a very nutritious legume and one of the species producing the most protein per hectare. It is used in particular as a source of protein in animal feed and as an oilseed. However, agricultural systems are dependent on climatic variability, and farmers must deal with this factor to optimize their activities. This article describes a method for predicting soybean yields based on machine learning. The comparative study shows that one can obtain forecasts with less than 2% margin of error using the Random Forest algorithm. In addition, the results obtained in this study can be extended to many other crops such as maize or rice.

Published: June 2022

Honeybees are of vital importance to both agriculture and ecology. Unfortunately, their populations have been in serious decline over recent years. Swarms from hives are both of great importance to wider success of a colony and of major significance to beekeepers. In this paper, we contribute to the challenge of predicting when a swarm is going to occur. We have employed a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) approach applied to audio data recorded from hives. Our initial results are extremely encouraging, since they allow us to distinguish hives which are preparing to swarm from those which are not with high levels of accuracy.

Published: June 2022

In recent years, the importance of artificial intelligence (AI) and reinforcement learning (RL) has exponentially increased in healthcare and learning Dynamic Treatment Regimes (DTR). These techniques are used to learn and recover the best of the doctor’s treatment policies. However, methods based on existing RL approaches are encountered with some limitations e.g. behavior cloning (BC) methods suffer from compounding errors and reinforcement learning (RL) techniques use self-defined reward functions that are either too sparse or need clinical guidance. To tackle the limitations that are associated with RL model, a new technique named Inverse reinforcement learning (IRL) was introduced. In IRL reward function is learned through expert demonstrations. In this paper, we are proposing an IRL approach for finding the true reward function for expert demonstrations. Result shows that with rewards through proposed technique provide fast learning capability to existing RL model as compared to self-defined rewards.

Published: June 2022

Surgery scheduling is a challenging combinatorial optimization problem that allows determining the operations start time of every surgery to be performed, as well as the resources to be assigned to each surgery over a predetermined period. It has been demonstrated that Reinforcement Learning approaches are highly promising to handle complex scheduling scenarios. In this paper, we formulated the problem of daily scheduling of elective patient surgeries as a Cooperative Markov Game. Then, we developed a Q-learning algorithm with multiple agents, each controlling one surgery. In so doing, we exploit the advantages coming from learning in cooperation with other agents to reach the common goal to obtain an optimal daily schedule of surgeries. Preliminary results highlight the improvements obtained when combining multi-agent cooperation with reinforcement learning in surgery scheduling against a traditional approach.

Published: June 2022

Artificial Intelligence is a hot topic and Machine Learning is one of the most fluent approaches and practices. The problem with many AI models is that they can be useful for predicting but they are bad at explaining why they behave a certain way. In some contexts, the explanation may even be more important than the prediction itself, mainly in systems in which decisions are made based on their predictions. Therefore, it is increasingly necessary to provide a forecast accompanied by an explanation, when decisions are made automatically. This paper aims to contribute to the solution of problem based on human mobility research, or at least, to be a starting point for its solution.

Published: June 2022

The past decade has seen a rapid development of Augmented Reality (AR) systems and applications in many research areas including education, medicine and psychological treatments. This has been due to the growing evidence of the potential of AR systems on supporting learning tasks among other benefits. However, very little is known about the potential impact of using AR systems for influencing the emotional state of users in the treatment of cognitive impairment. In this paper, we build upon our previous work on developing a tool based on augmented reality to stimulate the emotions of patients suffering with dementia through audiovisual content (image, video and audio) [1]. Here, we focus on exploring the effects of stimulation of emotions in a controlled experiment where users of the AR system were presented with different types of multimedia. The data was collected in different sessions and analysed using a 2-factor ANOVA test to compare and determine the differences/changes in users’ emotions. Our findings suggest that there is a significant relationship between the emotions that the user feels before and after having contact with audiovisual stimuli, thus, showing the potential for being used as efficient tools for improving the emotional state of cognitive impairment sufferers.

Uma variedade de sintomas relacionados a distúrbios na saúde mental, como: estresse, ansiedade, sofrimento psíquico, sintomas depressivos, insônia e o burnout, têm sido relatados por profissionais de saúde em decorrência da pandemia da Covid-19. Nesse contexto, o presente artigo, foi norteado pela questão: o cenário da pandemia da Covid-19 é propício para o desenvolvimento de distúrbios mentais em profissionais de saúde? Portanto, tem-se como objetivo, investigar, na literatura já publicada, se a pandemia é um fator que pode desencadear distúrbios mentais em profissionais de saúde, bem como identificar escalas, metodologias ou protocolos utilizados na identificação destes. Para isto, o método escolhido foi a revisão de literatura. Como resultados, observou-se que as escalas psicométricas mais utilizadas foram: The Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item (GAD-7), Escala de Ansiedade e Estresse. Como metodologia ou protocolo, a literatura apontou: Escala EASE (Exame das Anomalias Subjetivas da Experiência) e Escala de Impacto de Eventos Revisada (IES-R), Patient Health Questionnaire, World Mental Health-International College Student-WMHICS, PTSD checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5), CAGE-AID, Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI), Questionário de dados demográficos auto projetado e Lista de Verificação de Sintomas 90 (SCL-90), Questionário padrão e Escala de Impacto do Evento – Revisado (IES-R-22), Escala de Depressão do Centro de Estudos Epidemiológicos (CES-D), Covid-19 peritraumatic Distress Index (CPDI) Questionnaire, Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI); The 4-item Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-4), como sendo as mais utilizadas. Além disso, contatou-se que possuir histórico de depressão ou transtorno de ansiedade foi um fator de risco para a ocorrência de sintomas depressivos de intensidade moderada a grave; a profissão de enfermagem foi o fator mais associado aos transtornos psíquico e a profissão médica, também, foi fator de risco para o desenvolvimento de sintomas depressivos e sintomas de ansiedade graves e moderados a graves. Por fim, concluiu-se que a saúde mental de todos os profissionais que atuam na linha de frente no combate a Covid-19, merece atenção especial para a detecção precoce de transtornos psiquiátricos, pois a literatura comprova que este cenário é propício para o desenvolvimento de distúrbios mentais graves e moderados a graves em profissionais de saúde.

Eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders are rare inflammatory conditions marked by eosinophilic infiltration of the gastrointestinal tract. Endoscopic manifestations vary from patient to patient. However, ulcerative lesion is a rare occurence. A 57-year-old patient presented with chronic diarrhea and significant peripheral blood eosinophilia. During endoscopy, multiple ulcers were discovered throughout the stomach, duodenum, and colon. Biopsies showed excess tissue eosinophilia suggestive of eosinophilic gastroenteritis and colitis. The patient responded dramatically with corticosteroid. However, he developed steroid dependency necessitating the use of azathioprine. In conclusion, a rare case of eosinophilic gastroenteritis and colitis presented with multiple ulcerative lesions was described. Physicians should be aware that eosinophilic gastroenteritis and colitis may be a cause of chronic diarrhea, particularly, in patients presented with peripheral blood eosinophilia. Corticosteroid is the mainstay of treatment. In steroid dependency case, azathioprine may be an option.
