Published: June 2022

The purpose of this research is to obtain an overview of the performance of regional property managers, the Land and Finance Agency of Binjai City (BPKPAD). As the Regional Treasurer, BKPAD is a technical organization that is responsible for receiving regional revenues and financing regional needs through the Ministry of Regional Finance. The presence of the regional treasury allows the regions to regulate the availability of sufficient funds to fund regional expenditures. The Regional Treasury Department can also be used to find out what the wealth of an area is. The regional treasury itself is also included in the comparative balance, which is part of the financial statements. The previous cash management survey received regional revenues and used the funds paid for regional expenditures. The administrative guidelines for the implementation of the Binjai City APND stipulate that the procedures for receiving and paying cash are handled directly by the Ministry of Finance, and the Ministry of Finance has carried out its functions in accordance with these guidelines. In general, the performance of Binjai City BPPKAD Asset Management is currently not good and still not optimal. This can be seen from the metrics used to measure the current performance of BPPKAD Asset Management: accountability, transparency, and profitability. Efficiency and effectiveness need to be improved in order to increase APBD revenues to provide regional finance.

Epublic Health Significance of Nutrients, Heavy Metal and Total Heterotrophic Bacteria Interaction in Water Bodies in Port Harcourt and Its Environs
Authors: Bibiye A.A.S , Eddeh-Adjugah O.G.
Published: June 2022

Water is an essential commodity for all living things. It is an inorganic compound that can exist in solid, liquid and gaseous state under normal condition. The quality of any water body depends on certain factors such as the absence and or very neglectable amount of Total Heterotrophic bacteria count, heavy metal including physicochemical parameters among others. This study was carried during the dry season of 2021, and accounts for groundwater, surface and well water in Abuloma, Borikiri, Eagle-Island, Fimie, Macoba-Isaka, Ruekini and Rumuokoro respectively. Water samples were collected in 10ml sterile containers and labeled appropriately. Sample for the River was collected at the pelegial level stoppered while submerged. Sample from the boreholes and hand-dogged wells were collected in line with the American Public Health Association (APHA, 2107). The samples for the determination of heavy metal contents were fixed with 2 drops of concentrated trioxonitrate (V) acid (HNO3) while that for microbial analysis were preserved in ice chests to inhibit the activity of microbes and were sent to the laboratory for further analysis. Results indicated that the nutrients (NO3-, SO43- and PO42-) values appeared insignificant (i.e., values are within the acceptable levels) when compared with European Union guidelines for water consumption except PO42- for well water at Rumuekini and Rumuokoro respectively. The THBC factor was high in Abuloma for all the nutrients in surface water. Also, in well water, at Eagle-Island, Pb appeared elevated above the European Union standard for drinking water quality. Thus, it is recommended that well water from Eagle-Island be treated (i.e., the removal of Pb) to ensure it quality and safety for human consumption.
Enhancements to PWR SAMG since Fukushima
Authors: Prior R
Published: June 2022

Plant specific Severe Accident Management Guidelines are provided to give guidance to plant staff to respond to a severe accident, to protect containment, minimise fission product releases and prioritise equipment recovery efforts while bringing the plant to a controlled stable condition. This paper presents and discusses the enhancements that have been made particularly to widely implemented SAMG based on the Westinghouse Owners Group generic model (now part of the PWR Owners Group) since the Fukushima accident. Although U.S. and European responses to the accident may seem at first sight to be different, in fact, the enhancements needed to SAMG in order to address lessons learned were quite consistent. How to deal with loss of d.c. power and / or instrumentation, long term loss of a.c. power (much longer than had previously been considered), multiple unit severe accidents, accidents in the fuel pool, accidents from shutdown initial plant conditions and other issues and conditions that occurred during the event and which we must learn from? This paper presents results of a number of projects aimed at providing SAMG enhancements to address these issues, some originating in the U.S. and some in Europe. Main enhancements addressing lessons learned from Fukushima are described. The paper also summarises and describes an ongoing project to develop a fully revised generic SAMG specifically applicable to PWR plants in Europe (and also applicable to other designs, such as VVER) which benefits from all these efforts and will provide a single integrated and updated basis for plants with mitigation systems typical in Europe (often different from the US) to update their SAMG.
INCOME TAX APPLICATION AS A POPULATION POLICY TOOL
Authors: YILMAZ BOLAT Emine , ERDAL Muhammed
Published: June 2022

Societies around the world determine various policies for welfare and order, and population policies are one of them. Population policies affect the quality of life of individuals and the welfare level of countries. Population policies can also be shaped according to the income levels of the countries. In this study, literature review method was used in order to reveal the income tax practices as a population policy tool in our country. Within the scope of the study, first of all, the concept of population was discussed and the connections of income tax applications with the population were examined. In addition, the historical process in population policy and income tax, population policy approaches, factors affecting population and population policies, the relationship of population policies with income tax, the effects of economic approaches on population policies are examined within the scope of the research. In our country, in the historical process, the application of income tension may differ according to the population. From time to time, income practices have also mediated population policies from time to time. In the first half of the twentieth century, the numerical size of the population was accepted as a power for both Turkey and other countries. Especially in recent years, Turkey has been trying to keep the population growth at the current level as well as increasing the quality of the population. Population policies are created in terms of demographic variables such as population growth rate, size, spatial distribution and characteristics. Population policies prepared for the increase or decrease of the population in a country are formed according to the results of the economic needs in that country. It should be kept in mind that with population policies, social needs can be met and economic quality of life standards can be achieved.

Published: June 2022

Neuroblastoma, heterogeneous solid children tumour, usually shows high proliferation and metastase rates. As such, it is important to find more effective therapeutic agents for the treatment of neuroblastoma. Cefepime is an antibiotic that belongs to the cephalosporins. Due to the some cephalosporins antitumour potential, this study aimed to investigate the apoptotic and oxidative stress effects of cefepime in NB2a neuroblastoma cell line using flow cytometry and immunocytochemistry analysis. The cell viability and Annexin V results demonstrated that cefepime showed antiapoptotic effects. Cefepime arrested the cells in the S and G2/M phases. In addition it increased the oxidative stress and decreased the cell proliferation. It can be concluded that the cefepime exhibits anticancer potential to neuroblastoma cell and thus warrant further studies to assess its potential effects on the other cancer types.

La situation de travail : antidote aux écueils de la compétence
Authors: Enlart Sandra
Published: June 2022

L’auteure décrit quelques-unes des difficultés apparues lors des deux dernières années d’expérimentation d’AFEST, en insistant sur les limites méthodologiques et théoriques concernant l’utilisation de la notion de compétence. Cela la conduit à investiguer une autre notion, celle de situation de travail. Comment définir et limiter une situation de travail pour qu’elle devienne un concept opérant ? Car finalement, l’intérêt de l’AFEST réside bien dans sa capacité à prendre en considération non pas le travail en général mais un certain travail dans un certain contexte avec certains acteurs. D’où la nécessité de n’évoquer la compétence qu’en situation de travail.
Glucuronoxylomannan: the salient polysaccharide in cryptococcal immunity
Authors: Aliyu Mansur , Saboor-Yaraghi Ali Akbar , Khodavaisy Sadegh , Robat-Jazi Behrouz , Getso Muhammad Ibrahim
Published: June 2022

Cryptococcal meningitis (CM) is a dominant cause of morbidity and mortality among patients with human immunodeficiency virus/ acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) caused by Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii species complex. The complex is composed of closely related members, yet with diverse epidemiology, pathogenesis, and drug-resistant pattern. Cell-mediated immunity is the strongest pillar in immunity to cryptococcosis, further worsening HIV/AIDS patients' scenario. Antifungal resistance and immune evasion again tilt the host-parasite balance in favor of the fungal pathogen. In this regard, researchers are actively challenged to discover immunotherapy and vaccine for CM, to produce specific treatment and prevention that will address CM conventional therapeutics failure. As the major capsular polysaccharide of the Cryptococcus, which is tightly linked to pathogenicity, immunogenicity, and immune evasion, the glucuronoxylomannan (GXM) is cardinally targeted for vaccine and immunotherapy development. Further, the amount of GXM shed in body fluids correlates with the disease severity. Herein, we reviewed the literature with the journey so far in line with GXM as the salient immunological target on cryptococcosis.
Cerámica y luz en el cristianismo de la Antigüedad tardía. A propósito de un nuevo ejemplar de lucerna de asa plástica con crismón
Authors: Vizcaíno Sánchez Jaime , Bustamante Álvarez Macarena
Published: June 2022

Se presenta un asa plástica de lucerna con crismón recientemente hallada en Carthago Spartaria (Cartagena). En este trabajo, se aborda un análisis iconográfico y funcional de esta pieza inédita. El crismón se utiliza frecuentemente en los cuencos o lucernas realizadas en African Red Slip Ware (ARSW) entre los siglos IV y V. Sin embargo, las lucernas tunecinas con reflector son muy escasas. Están ligadas a prototipos paleocristianos en bronce, en los que el reflector permitía un juego de luces y sombras con el motivo en él troquelado. El escaso impacto que tuvieron en la cuenca mediterránea nos permite inferir datos de un uso muy reducido y quizás vinculado a la liturgia de las comunidades cristianas.
De un centenario a otro: la Inmaculada, el inmaculismo y la civilización de la Inmaculada (1904 a 2017). Reflexiones sobre la percepción del fenómeno inmaculista y su evolución
Authors: Ruiz-Gálvez Priego Estrella
Published: June 2022

La causa de la Inmaculada Concepción de María, que llegó a ser asunto de estado para la Monarquía Hispánica, llenó bibliotecas en el pasado y, contra todo pronóstico, las sigue llenando en el presente. En realidad, la cuestión no ha dejado nunca de interesar, sobre todo en España donde las publicaciones, siguiendo el ritmo marcado por la celebración de las efemérides del tema, han venido sucediéndose sin interrupción. Cada celebración ha aportado su contribución, no solo al conocimiento objetivo del tema, sino también a nuestro conocimiento del hecho de su percepción, ya que todas las celebraciones conmemorativas son, por su carácter memorístico, un exponente del estado de la cuestión recordada en el momento en que se expone su recuerdo, una percepción que es a su vez rememorada y, según los casos, asumida o rechazada. Estas líneas, siguiendo el ritmo de los centenarios conmemorativos, intentan dar cuenta de la evolución experimentada en la percepción del tema inmaculista desde 1904, primera celebración de la declaración dogmática de 1854, hasta 2017 fecha de la celebración del cuarto centenario del decreto Santissimus Dominus Noster de 1617, pero son también, en su conclusión, un intento de respuesta al porqué de la existencia de un inmaculismo hispánico, al cómo y al porqué de su evolución como fenómeno religioso que, partiendo de la adhesión devocional a la Inmaculada Concepción de María, común a otras naciones, llega a ser reflejo mental que condiciona la práctica social y la norma ética de una forma específica de la civilización hispánica: la civilización de la Inmaculada.
The Role of Digital Fabrication in Today's Society
Authors: Tyler-Wood Tandra Lea
Published: June 2022

Digital fabrication and the “maker movement” can play a major role in bringing computational technology into the 21st century classroom. Digital fabrication is defined as the process of translating a digital design developed on a computer into a physical object or any process for producing/printing a three-dimensional (3D) object. The maker movement is a platform for today's futuristic artisans, craftsmen, designers and developers to create, craft, and develop leading ideas and products. Digital fabrication and “making” could provide a new platform for bringing powerful ideas and meaningful tools to students. Digital fabrication has the potential to be “the ultimate construction kit.” Digital fabrication has strong ties to the maker movement. Maker spaces provide students with safe areas that allow students to safely use digital fabrication to make, build, and share their creations. This chapter will look at the role that digital fabrication can play in incorporating computational technology into the K-12 classroom.

Authors: Cornetta Gianluca , Touhafi Abdellah , Muntean Gabriel-Miro
Published: June 2022

Cloud and IoT technologies have the potential to enable a plethora of new applications that are not strictly limited to remote sensing, data collection, and data analysis. In such a context, the IoT paradigm can be seen as an empowering technology rather than a disruptive one since it has the capability to improve the standard business processes by fostering more efficient and sustainable implementations and by reducing the running costs. Cloud and IoT technologies can be applied in a broad range of contexts including entertainment, industry, and education, among others. This chapter presents part of the outputs of the NEWTON H2020 European project on technology-enhanced learning; more specifically, it introduces the concept of fabrication as a service in the context of educational digital fabrication laboratories. Fab Labs can leverage cloud and IoT technologies to enable resource sharing and provide remote access to distributed expensive fabrication resources over the internet. Both platform architecture and impact on learning experience of STEM subjects are presented in detail.

At the same time, it allows one to leverage innovation using technological resources available in the space, stimulating the creativity of its participants and enabling the development of products and solutions based on personal projects from ideation, or the construction supported on knowledge developed by other elements together, collaboratively, enhancing the final result. These spaces have several designations and typologies, like makerspaces, hackerspaces, techshops, and fab labs. In this chapter, the authors focus on a model, widely tested and in use in several places of the world, the fab lab. The possibility of implementing a fab lab, or fabrication laboratory, or fabulous laboratory, which is a laboratory of digital fabrication, serving as a prototyping platform of physical objects, with broad educational, social, and economic advantages will be analyzed and described.
Design and Evaluation of a Collaborative Learning System for 3D Model Sharing
Authors: Li Tsai-Yen , Lin I-Sheng
Published: June 2022

Due to the prevalence of 3D printers, many applications of 3D printing have been developed for education in the recent years. Although there are web sites hosting 3D models created by students and allowing them to be shared with others, these systems usually lack educational functions, especially for collaborative learning. On the other hand, most learning management systems do not provide functions needed for sharing and viewing 3D models. In this chapter, a system called 3D model co-learning space (3D MCLS), dedicated to collaborative learning, will be reported. The system allows a user to store, share, display, and discuss 3D models and allows a teacher to manage a group of students in a flexible way. Furthermore, the system can create the thumbnail of a 3D model automatically. It uses tags to organize models into groups according to their attributes or teams in a class. In addition, it provides blind assignments of peer reviews. The authors have implemented such a system and conducted a pilot study to obtain a preliminary evaluation on the usability of the system.
Teaching in a Makerspace
Authors: Otieno Catherine
Published: June 2022

This chapter provides an in-depth study of the teaching practices of instructors who primarily guide and facilitate learning in a makespace. With a close look at the pedagogical practices that govern teaching and learning in the maker classroom, this study presents instructors who modeled these frameworks. In addition to their own knowledge base and expertise, they were able to efficiently and effectively integrate multi-resources in a unique learning environment while helping learners succeed and adopt the maker mindset. Makerspaces are changing how we perceive learning and teaching. Instructors highlighted in this chapter put forth activities and learning goals that were learner centered and interesting to various learning needs. They designed and created a learning environment that safeguarded learners and allowed them to experiment with ideas and materials, creating different iterations of learning and redefining what success and failure means.
Makerspaces as Learning Environments to Support Computational Thinking
Authors: Strawhacker Amanda L. , Vizner Miki Z.
Published: June 2022

Makerspaces are technology-rich learning environments that can uniquely support children's development. In education communities, makerspaces have become sites to take up explorations of personally-motived problem solving, and have been tied to 21st century learning outcomes of perseverance, creativity, persistence, and computational thinking. Elsewhere in this book, Bers described computational thinking as the set of skills and cognitive processes required to give instructions for a specific task in such a way that a computer could carry it out. But Bers also argued that the purpose of computational thinking is to cultivate a fluency with technological tools as a medium of expression, not an end in itself. Computational making is part of this expression. This chapter explores the ways in which tools, facilitation, and the physical environment can support children's engagement with powerful ideas of computational thinking through making.

Published: June 2022

Increasingly, the maker movement has been pointed to as a means of bringing more innovation and creativity into education. As an educational program, making has pressed educators to question entrenched beliefs and assumptions about the structure of activities, lessons, and classes, pushing them to embrace a more student and experience driven learning environment. “Making Success” was a two-year research project to investigate and describe the integration of making into one school district's middle and high school. The starting point of the research was to learn and describe the critical characteristics and capacities that allowed TRSD to integrate making so deeply into its secondary schools. A key lesson of the project was that many interconnected ideas and people played important roles in the initiative to bring about success.

Authors: Jocius Robin , Blanton Melanie , Albert Jennifer , Joshi Deepti , Andrews Ashley Ray
Published: June 2022

This chapter documents findings from the Making CT (Computational Thinking) project, a collaborative effort between project team members and elementary teachers that aims to reimagine interdisciplinary, computational thinking-infused making lessons for a virtual format. Virtual making CT lessons were grounded in four design principles: standards-based practices, clear and explicit expectations, multiple means of engagement, and opportunities for collaboration. Drawing on data from virtual teacher professional development sessions, lesson implementation, and teacher interviews, this chapter illustrates how teachers were able to engage in the difficult work of reconceptualizing CT-infused making lessons for the virtual classroom. These principles can be used to support the design of other interdisciplinary activities to support P-5 students' development of creative and authentic problem-solving in virtual learning environments.

TechCreate is a relatively small makerspace, much like an open classroom, located in a mixed-use industrial park. It was founded as a for-profit space, with the intention to create a community of makers for the outer Dublin area. Because adult memberships have been slow to grow, the space has pivoted towards small-scale manufacturing services and, at the same time, provides educational services to youth in the community. While learning communities for adults are largely non-existent, the space works diligently to provide opportunities for youth to work in teams and in near-peer combinations to foster a sense of community. Most youth participants in the space start the experience with TechCreate by taking a six-week basic coding class and from there may choose to specialize in making by joining a making club for youth or may choose to take an intermediate level coding course and then join a coding club. This chapter explores TechCreate.
Library Markers Space in Academic and Public Libraries
Authors: Alonge Ayodele John
Published: June 2022

This chapter examines the library markers space in academic and public libraries. These spaces are specifically designed to meet the unexpressed needs of library users and to influence them to profitably engage in the library by creating physical or digital objects, which are open for the free use of all library users. Library makers space enables graphic arts, web design, and animation, and assists students in their projects that involve digital images. Nevertheless, factors such as lack of technical skills, inadequate power supply, and lack of trained manpower distort the application of library markers space in academic and public libraries.

Membership is based on a sliding scale at $1 per $1000 of income. Learning communities are supported in the space through inclusivity of all members and a management flat-structure where everyone is treated with respect and dignity. This chapter explores the Station North Tool Library.
MADE Makerspace Barcelona
Authors: Barker Bradley S.
Published: June 2022

The MADE Makerspace in Barcelona, Spain is a small community-based, all-volunteer makerspace in the heart of the city center. Located in an old factory building occupying about 187 square meters (2,013 ft2), the space is a little crowded, and the building in need of a refresh. Inside the space there is a woodshop, digital fabrication studio, and electronics area. MADE Makerspace uses three different technology “channels” to keep their members aware of happenings in the space. Even more impressive, the space is using an electronic channel to provide an update on members' projects, including those that are under consideration and not started yet. From this channel, new members and existing members can find experts in project areas that match their interests. MADE does not have an abundance of curriculum but does follow a hands-on, problem-based learning approach to teach members about making. This chapter explores MADE Makerspace Barcelona.
Lighthouse Creativity Lab
Authors: Barker Bradley S.
Published: June 2022

The Lighthouse Creativity Lab, a program of Lighthouse Community Public Schools (LCPS), is a school-based makerspace dedicated to serving the student population of Oakland, California. LCPS is a family of two schools, Lighthouse and Lodestar, which opened in 2002 and 2016 respectively. The schools were founded with the mission to provide a high-quality education to the largely Latino population, following the expeditionary learning framework that emphasizes community and critical thinking skills, both important factors in making. Over the last 5 years, making has moved from a high school course into a school-wide endeavor, with all K–4 classes hosting a mini-maker space in the classroom. Moreover, the Creativity Lab works closely with teachers to incorporate making into learning expeditions as well as offering making as an elective in the middle and high-school grades. Learning communities are created through the social aspect of working on specific projects and through preparation for events like the Maker Faire. This chapter explores the Lighthouse Creativity Lab.
Tinkering Studio at the Exploratorium
Authors: Barker Bradley S.
Published: June 2022

The Tinkering Studio is located in the Exploratorium Museum in San Francisco, California. The studio is at the forefront of research and evaluation on engagement and teacher professional development in the use of tinkering and making for learning. Divided into two spaces, a floor area for museum visitors and a learning studio for resident artists, allows scientists and exhibit developers to hone their craft and designs. Central to the visitor's experience is the problem space that permits deep engagement of a phenomena and the opportunity to devise meaning through the process of making or in this case tinkering. Tinkering, in the broadest sense, overlaps a great deal with making. Tinkering oftentimes does not lead to a tangible product, and at times there is focus on aesthetics at the cost of functionality as one tinkers. Learning communities can be a challenge in the space due to the drop-in nature of the visits. Learning communities are formed through a carefully designed learning environment that supports social interactions and educators in the space that connect learners. This chapter explores the Tinkering Studio at the Exploratorium Museum.
Measuring Electrodermal Activity in an Afterschool Maker Program to Detect Youth Engagement
Authors: Cain Ryan , Lee Victor R.
Published: June 2022

In this chapter, the authors describe a new approach for exploring individual participants' engagement in immersive youth maker activities. Participants were outfitted with wearable first-person point-of-view still-image cameras and wrist-based electrodermal sensors. The researchers analyzed the recorded electrodermal data stream for surges in skin conductivity and compared them with the corresponding photographs based on their timestamp. In following with prior work, these surges were interpreted as moments of engagement. A comparison sample was created to look at moments that lacked this psychophysiological marker. Results suggested that the two participants had both shared and divergent engagements with the afterschool program's activities. While the group project of building a high altitude balloon had been established prior to the youth's participation, the girls were able to choose what aspect of the project they wanted to be responsible for. This range of activities provided opportunities for youth to sample a variety of practices typically associated with making.
Girls and 3D Printing
Authors: Sullivan Pamela M. , Lantz Jessica L. , Adams Andrea H.
Published: June 2022

Using Guernsey's framework for technology use with young children, this case study examines two middle elementary grade female students as they experience 3D printing in a Makerspace environment. In this case study, the girls spent a day working with a Makerspace staff member to learn how to 3D print a design of their choice from Thingiverse. The case study provides a chance to analyze the reactions, discourse, and activities of two girls introduced to 3D printing in a makerspace. The authors sorted the verbalizations, behaviors, and actions of the two girls into a reflection on the concepts of content, context, and child put forth by Guernsey.
Solving the Creativity Crisis
Authors: Bressler Denise M.
Published: June 2022

Society's serious problems require creative thinkers. Developing an effective workforce relies on cultivating our children's creativity. Unfortunately, we are suffering a creativity crisis, particularly with young children. Since 1990, early elementary students have suffered the largest decrease in creative thinking capacity. Rather than learning through play, young children are taught by rote and tested extensively. Play is indispensable for early learners; without play, students are missing an essential element of early learning that stimulates creative thinking. To promote play, elementary teachers should be trained in maker-centered teaching, a playful approach to learning that embodies the essential elements of STEM education. To truly integrate maker-centered learning, there is a critical need for effective maker-centered professional development. Maker-centered teaching provides playful learning where young children can experience STEM and learn to think more creatively. With maker-centered teaching, we can make the next generation of innovators.

Authors: Sun Yan , Okojie Mabel C. P. O.
Published: June 2022

This chapter presents the design and development of the competency-building 3D Instructional Video Project intended for developing pre-service teachers' technology integration competency. Unlike traditional projects in educational technology courses that are well defined and structured, involving using an educational tool to complete a task, the 3D Instructional Video Project is a semester-long project requiring pre-service teachers to plan their 3D modeling and printing integrated lesson, explore Tinkercad and design their 3D models, test their 3D models with the Makerbot Desktop, print off their 3D models with a Makerbot 3D printer, and present their 3D modeling and printing integrated lesson planning through a video created with iMovie. This 3D Instructional Video Project engages pre-service teachers in discovery learning and is designed to help pre-service teachers to build their competency for dealing with the constant changing landscape of educational technology and transforming teaching and learning with emerging technologies.
