Authors: Helena Peixoto Magda , Machado dos Santos Pereira Mariana , Da Penha Silva de Brito Maria , Gabriel dos Santos Brian
Published: November 2023

A saúde do trabalhador permeia-se entre um campo de práticas e de conhecimentos estratégicos interdisciplinares, técnicos, sociais, políticos, humanos, multiprofissionais e interinstitucionais. A sua implementação no SUS, por meio dos diferentes órgãos, busca ampliar a visibilidade das ações de Saúde do Trabalhador junto aos gestores, porém tem-se percebido a ineficácia estratégica, pois os acidentes de trabalho têm-se mostrado crescentes no Brasil. Por isso este estudo busca apontar a prática da Saúde do trabalhador no Sistema Único de Saúde. Esse estudo se refere a uma pesquisa de revisão narrativa de literatura, de abordagem qualitativa, descritiva e exploratória quanto aos objetivos e bibliográfica quanto aos procedimentos. O material encontrado apresenta grande diversidade de conteúdo, em decorrência disso, na fase de categorização foi encontrado a similaridade do material e emergiram-se as categorias: “A Rede Nacional de Atenção Integral à Saúde do Trabalhador e os Centros de Referência em Saúde do Trabalhador”; “A Vigilância em Saúde do Trabalhador como eixo da Política Nacional de Saúde do Trabalhador e da Trabalhadora”; “O SUS e a Saúde do Trabalhador na prática”. Conclui-se que, na prática, os desafios estruturais do SUS, no que cerne à questão trabalhista, são abordados de forma fragmentada e superficial, fazendo com que a questão da precarização do trabalho e dos aspectos da Saúde do Trabalhador seja tratada marginalmente pelo interior do sistema de saúde brasileiro.

Functional Changes After Occupational Therapy Among Individuals With a Distal Radius Fracture: A Longitudinal Study
Authors: De-Rosende-Celeiro Iván , Fernández-Barreiro Jorge Juan
Published: November 2023

Importance: Identifying the outcomes of occupational therapy after a distal radius fracture (DRF) is important so that effective strategies can be developed to mitigate the consequences associated with this common fracture.

Objective: To determine whether participation in occupational therapy improved functional status. Secondary objectives were to assess its effects on body functions and to examine the association between changes in outcome measures and occupational therapy–related factors.

Design: Longitudinal, with consecutive sampling over a 12-mo period.

Setting: Outpatient rehabilitation service.

Participants: Participants were 38 adults with a unilateral DRF (ages 31–75 yr.; 81.6% female).

Intervention: Multicomponent occupational therapy, including supplemental techniques and activity-based interventions.

Outcomes and Measures: Functional status and body functions were assessed before and after therapy.

Results: All standardized measures of functional status showed significant improvements, which were large in size. Several body functions improved significantly (pain, sleep, wrist and forearm movements, and grip strength fraction), and effect sizes ranged from medium to large. For several outcome variables, earlier therapy was significantly associated with better results; moreover, the likelihood of achieving better outcomes was significantly higher among participants who attended more sessions.

Conclusions and Relevance: Occupational therapy services have an important role to play after a DRF in terms of returning to daily activities and reducing impairments in body functions. Earlier intervention and attending a higher number of occupational therapy sessions are likely to further improve these outcomes.

What This Article Adds: Because the effects of occupational therapy among people with a DRF remain uncertain, we quantified the outcomes of this intervention in an outpatient rehabilitation service, revealing medium to large improvements in the performance of daily activities and in various body functions. Our findings identified two factors associated with better results: early initiation of therapy and a higher number of occupational therapy sessions.

Discutem-se os limites de uma análise de tais casos do ponto de vista estritamente jurídico, a importância de normas deontológicas recentes sobre a matéria, bem como alternativas ao repatriamento físicos dos tais objetos, por exemplo sob a forma de repatriamento “virtual” e projetos colaborativos com comunidades indígenas.
A aplicação nacional da doutrina da margem de apreciação: a interpretação criativa dos tribunais brasileiros e os riscos para o Sistema Interamericano de Direitos Humanos
Authors: Veloso Paulo Potiara de Alcantara
Published: November 2023

A presente pesquisa debruça-se sobre os contornos da aplicação da doutrina da margem de apreciação pelo judiciário brasileiro, indicando que este instituto, tipicamente europeu, tem servido de elemento de resistência hermenêutica em discussões judiciais que tratam de elementos normativos e decisórios internacionais, principalmente dentro do contexto do Sistema Interamericano de Proteção aos Direitos Humanos. Objetivando responder se, a partir dos contornos conceituais e contextuais das discussões sobre a doutrina da margem de apreciação, seria possível inferir se a aplicação da doutrina da margem de apreciação no ordenamento jurídico brasileiro oferece riscos hermenêuticos para a relação entre as cortes nacionais e os organismos judiciais internacionais, o presente artigo conclui que esses riscos são palpáveis e podem indicar a tomada de um perigoso caminho de sedimentação jurisprudencial. Buscando cumprir os propósitos apresentados, o caminho metodológico fundamenta-se sobre revisão bibliográfica e análise jurisprudencial primária, estruturadas em dois tópicos teórico-casuísticos e uma conclusão discursiva, que cumprem cada qual seus objetivos específicos, quais sejam: a) delimitar as principais discussões sobre as especificidades da doutrina da margem de apreciação no contexto europeu e sua transferência para o sistema interamericano de direitos humanos; b) analisar a construção interpretativa da doutrina dentro do judiciário brasileiro; c) discutir as implicações da doutrina para o Sistema Interamericano de Proteção dos Direitos Humanos e a construção de uma visão prospectiva da relação entre o judiciário brasileiro e as cortes internacionais das quais o Brasil é signatário.
Os atributos da norma aplicados ao modelo de produção tradicional do Direito Internacional e o debate sobre a Soft Law
Authors: Guerra Amina Welten
Published: November 2023

A soft law é constantemente excluída do debate acerca do sistema normativo internacional por carecer, dentro de uma ótica positivista clássica, dos atributos típicos da norma jurídica, como a juridicidade, a legalidade, a validade, a legitimidade e a obrigatoriedade.

O presente artigo busca propor uma reflexão mais ampla destes atributos a fim de indicar em que medida a soft law possa contê-los e seu estudo se justificar dentro do sistema normativo internacional.

A metodologia utilizada é a jurídico-dogmática possibilitando uma investigação de caráter descritivo e propositivo.

Verificar-se-á que é possível redimensionar na contemporaneidade o entendimento acerca destes atributos quando diante da categoria da soft law a fim de legitimar o seu estudo dentro da formação do direito internacional.

Este trabalho é original e se propõe como alternativa ao entendimento binário de que a soft law não é direito na medida em que questiona de modo crítico os atributos da norma jurídica.

Cross-sectional descriptive survey design was employed with questionnaires, interview Schedules and secondary sources as data collection tools. Target population was 5911 participants involving managers, supervisors, subordinate staff and guests, where a sample of 835 respondents was drawn. The was summarized into themes per specific objectives and descriptive analysis employed on demographic characteristics. Pearson correlation analyses evaluated the relationships between the variables. Multiple regression evaluated moderating variable effect on predictor and dependent variables relationship. The findings indicated a positive significant correlation between tacit knowledge creation and competitive advantage (P=0.0001<0.05). The F-calculated for the two models was higher than the F-critical, where model 1 was F=11.475> 2.45 and model 2 was F=6.247 > 2.18. These models produced strong fits for the study data and hence could be applied in forecasting the moderating effect of organizational factors on the association between tacit knowledge management and competitive advantage. The resulting R-value was 0.927, and further indicated a high correlation degree between the Tacit Knowledge Creation and Competitive Advantage. The resulting R2 (Square) value obtained was 0.859, indicating that the predictors explained 85.9% of Competitive advantage. Therefore, this meant that other elements which were not covered by this research accounted for 14.1%of the competitive advantage matrix. The study recommended that the policy makers propose application of these techniques for competitiveness.

Social pedagogy is a holistic approach to experiential learning, focusing on interaction, joint activities, and relationships. Social pedagogy offers paradigms for informal and non-formal educators, focusing on education for sociality. Pedagogy involves learning, teaching, and development influenced by cultural values. It differs from informal education and community learning and development. Recognizing the significance of informal education, group work, and community organization and development as practices informs social pedagogy. The current social and economic instability has exposed large pockets of disadvantaged or socially excluded people. Social policies have not effectively integrated these individuals. Community education, a pedagogical intervention, aims to improve the quality of life and well-being, particularly for those in social exclusion, and promote social cohesion. This is achieved through increased participation, empowerment, co-responsibility, and social awareness.

Mathematics is expected to involve students actively and independently learning in the classroom. Using suitable media to the conditions in the field, especially the characteristics of students, will help activate the learning process effectively. However, mathematics teachers often, in practice in the area, tend to use something other than instructional media to equate the material. This study aims to describe the teacher's problems in developing learning media in MTs and the solutions given to several issues in learning. This research type is qualitative, with a descriptive approach used to describe information about the problems of developing learning media in MTs—the technique of determining the research object by random sampling. The results of this study are that in the development of learning media, especially learning mathematics, there are three obstacles. These various obstacles include the teacher’s need to be maximal in providing or bringing up ideas and inspiration, how and what it looks like, and not even understanding enjoyable learning. Students who are taught are also not reactive to learning, which results in difficulty in inspiring. Then, the most crucial obstacle is yourself. Other constraints found are discussed in detail in this article.

Published: November 2023

The low utilisation of mathematical problem-solving tools makes students need additional skills. Multiple schools/madrasahs do this. Islamic schools like madrasas should also teach Islamic ideals. However, mathematical tools must show this integration. This project aims to create an Islamic-based mathematics problem-solving test for AKM at the Madrasah Tsanawiyah level. This research follows Thiagarajan's five-step R&D approach. A test instrument comprising 30 essay tests in four packages was created. This study involved Mts class VIII or IX pupils. The research shows that the Islamic context-based mathematics problem-solving ability test instrument for Madrasah Tsanawiyah AKM content is good. Experts and students evaluate this quality. Expert reviews indicate that the device fits mathematical content, Islamic settings, and language. Student testing results reveal that the test equipment is valid and trustworthy. However, the test questions' difficulty level should be better dispersed and discussed.

Published: November 2023

This paper investigates scholars' views regarding Islamic banking. This paper is different from a general analytical study of printed material. This is because videos on YouTube regarding Islamic banking are briefly analyzed in this. Scholars’ Videos show different ways to present their point of view regarding Islamic banking. Some scholars’ views are brief, while others have used historical and descriptive styles. Some scholars used comparative methodology to differentiate Islamic banking from conventional banking systems. Some scholars have presented views about the formation and implantation of Islamic banking with the collective formation of rules uniform in all schools of thought of Islam. This means that the past and present of Islamic banking and conventional are discussed while some present uniform acceptable norms to all schools of thought for the future. Furthermore, this paper presents the theme of spoken words by scholars in the shape of written material, which may be seen, read, and preserved for analysis and future reference. In short, this paper presents scholars' views about interest as some opine that there is no vivid difference between conventional and Islamic banking regarding interest rate application and prohibition

Students must master their critical thinking ability because it is the basis for analyzing arguments so that they can develop a reasonable mindset. In addition, the critical thinking ability to speak English is also an important thing that students must possess to face the globalization era. In its development, literacy culture has become one of the skills of the 21st century. One way to improve literacy is to understand English journals for reference needs for the preparation of scientific papers in universities. Therefore, this study aims to examine students' critical thinking skills in understanding English journals in the Biology Education seminar course. This is a case study at the private universities in the city of Bandung involving 60 students in biology education. Students are given the task of reading independently from a journal. Data collection in this study was obtained from student reports in the form of PowerPoint, assessment results, and observations. Data analysis is carried out with stages of data validity, data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and conclusions. The study results showed that students' critical thinking skills in understanding English journals can be developed by integrating them into course assignments.
Effects of Virtual Laboratory-Based Instruction on the Frequency of Use of Experiment as a Pedagogical Approach in Teaching and Learning of Physics in Secondary Schools in Kenya
Authors: Okono Elijah , Wangila Eric , Chebet Annet
Published: November 2023

Information and communications technology (ICT) incorporation in teaching physics in Kenyan secondary schools cannot be overlooked, given the key roles and benefits that ICT offers in the process of teaching and learning. Consistently poor average scores in the subject currently witnessed at the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) level in Physics can be attributed to low student motivation and traditional teaching strategies. For instance, in the years 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019, Kisumu County registered low mean scores of 4.23, 4.98, 4.67, and 4.10, respectively, in physics in KCSE. Therefore, there is a need for the incorporation of more effective teaching strategies to improve performance in physics and for students’ interest and attitude in learning the subject to change. Technology-based or enhanced learning leverages all learners, irrespective of their traits or socio-economic status. This study aimed at establishing the effects of virtual laboratory-based instruction (VLBI) on the use of experiments as a pedagogical approach. The study objectives were to establish the effect of virtual laboratories on the frequency of use of experimental teaching approaches in learning physics in secondary schools and to determine the extent of the relationship between physics teachers knowledge of the selected ICT frameworks and the use of virtual experiments in teaching and learning physics in secondary schools in Kenya. The study was supported by behaviourism learning theory and adopted quasi-experimental research designs. The physics teachers were purposefully sampled from each selected school. The sample size was 44 teachers and 358 students, summing up to 402 respondents. The data was analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics. The study concluded that virtual laboratories advance the use of experimental teaching approaches and that there was no statistical significance between the knowledge of the teacher about the selected ICT framework and the use of virtual experiments. The findings of this study would help educational planners successfully design and implement various classroom-based innovations that would enable seamless integration of virtual laboratories into classroom instruction.
