Authors: Yang Huanhuan
Published: June 2024

This study aims to understand the in-service training needs, training transfer, and training effectiveness of teachers in local normal universities in China, while also proposing a continuous professional development plan for teachers. Descriptive research methods were employed, with questionnaires serving as the primary data collection tool. The survey revealed that the educational background of teachers in local normal universities is characterized by an unreasonable distribution of academic qualifications, with a shortage of teachers holding postgraduate and higher degrees. Additionally, the training effectiveness for female teachers was found to be lower than that of male teachers. There is a lack of personalization in training needs, which tends to be more generalized. The transfer effect of training is moderate, and there is a need for further enhancement at the behavioral level of training effectiveness. A continuous professional development plan for teachers has been formulated to improve training effectiveness and promote professional development.
Exploration of Practice Teaching Reform Based on Outcome-Based Education Concept: Taking Environmental Design Major as an Example
Authors: Pang Yushan
Published: June 2024

The concept of OBE (outcome-based education) is more focused on designing and implementing teaching activities around expected learning outcomes than the traditional teaching model and enhancing the quality of education through clear and measurable learning outcomes, which has led to profound changes in the field of education. However, environmental design practice teaching faces a series of challenges in the implementation of the OBE concept, including the complexity of the assessment system, personalized learning and creative learning, and over-reliance on quantitative assessment. Therefore, in order to further deepen the professionalization of the OBE concept, we have conducted research on the design education practice models at home and abroad, explored the practice teaching models and their applications such as project system, studio model, practical internships, and technology-driven interdisciplinary integration, and took the practice innovative teaching models of Stanford d.school and Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) as examples to explore the characteristics of the curricula, cultivation modes, and the development of the environmental design professional practice teaching model. The characteristics of OBE and RISD are discussed to provide a global vision and local contextual reference for the practice teaching reform of environmental design majors.

Authors: Jiang Wenyuan , Esther O. Dela Cruz
Published: June 2024

Objective: To investigate the role of acupressure therapy in helping pregnant women with HG reduce the frequency or severity of vomiting and relieve stress and anxiety. Method: A quantitative study with a quasi-experimental design and non-equivalent group design was used. Sixty-six valid data points were obtained from pregnant mothers diagnosed with HG in a general hospital in Linyi City. These pregnant women received either acupressure (n = 33) or general therapeutic care (n = 33). They completed standardized questionnaires designed to assess vomiting, anxiety, and stress levels. Results: Data showed no differences between the experimental and control groups before the intervention. After the intervention, there were significant differences in anxiety (P ≤ 0.05) and stress (P ≤ 0.05) scores between the two groups. However, there was no significant difference in vomiting scores (P > 0.05) between the two groups after the intervention. The anxiety and stress scores of the experimental group were significantly lower than those of the control group post-intervention, while the vomiting scores of the two groups were similar. Conclusion: The findings suggest that acupressure significantly reduces anxiety and stress in pregnant women with hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) and also helps reduce vomiting. Acupressure presents a viable clinical option for pregnant women seeking relief from HG symptoms.

Authors: César Rozevania Valadares de Meneses , Santos Sandra Virginia Correia de Andrade , Costa Rafaela Virgínia Correia da Silva
Published: June 2024

Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar os saberes docentes, situados nas atividades pedagógicas não presenciais, durante a pandemia da COVID-19. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, do tipo estado do conhecimento, em que se optou pela busca avançada, no título e no resumo, com os descritores “saberes docentes”, “atividades pedagógicas não presenciais” e “pandemia”, bem como suas sinonímias. Considerando os critérios de inclusão e exclusão e o recorte temporal de 2020 a 2022, realizou-se um levantamento no Portal Periódico Capes, SciELO e Biblioteca Digital Brasileira de Teses e Dissertações (BDTD), sendo o corpus constituído por 18 artigos e duas dissertações. Os achados evidenciaram que os saberes docentes alicerçam a prática pedagógica, numa perspectiva de coexistência do comprometimento dos professores em (re)construir suas aprendizagens e o enfrentamento de seus desafios, impostos pelo distanciamento físico e pela não apropriação do digital, notando-se, ainda, um hiato existente na formação com as tecnologias digitais. Há um entendimento de que a ausência de formação no cenário digital inviabiliza processos pedagógicos significativos, nos quais outros saberes poderiam emergir e se (re)significar. Contudo, a não especificidade desses saberes nas publicações requisita novas pesquisas.
O potrzebie zmian w regulacjach prawnych dotyczących pozyskiwania informacji pochodzących z nośników danych dla celów postępowania karnego
Authors: Jasiński Wojciech
Published: June 2024

W artykule omówiono problematykę regulacji ustawowej dotyczącej karnoprocesowego pozyskiwania informacji pochodzących z nośników danych. W pierwszej kolejności analizie zostały poddane obowiązujące unormowania karnoprocesowe, które oceniono jako niewystarczające i oparte na błędnym założeniu, że ogólne odesłanie do odpowiedniego stosowania przepisów regulujących standardowe czynności wykrywcze jest wystarczające. W opracowaniu zaprezentowano szereg argumentów natury praktycznej, aksjologicznej i gwarancyjnej, które przemawiają za wprowadzeniem bardziej szczegółowych unormowań regulujących omawianą materię. Za takim krokiem przemawia zresztą także analiza efektywności obowiązujących norm karnoprocesowych. Przyjęcie optymalnych regulacji dotyczących pozyskiwania informacji pochodzących z nośników danych wymaga ścisłej współpracy prawników (praktyków i teoretyków) oraz specjalistów z zakresu informatyki. Regulacje te powinny ukształtować autonomiczny reżim pozyskiwania danych, który opierałby się na powierzeniu decyzji o dostępie do nich niezależnemu od organów ścigania podmiotowi, a osobom zainteresowanym zapewniłby możliwość realnej weryfikacji dokonywanych w toku postępowania czynności.

Published: June 2024

Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) mammalian cell lines are widely used as cell platforms in biopharmaceutical productions. Different transfection systems are employed for the integration of the target gene cassette into the cell genome and have limitations, such as (i) the integration region in the genome, (ii) the size of the target cassette, and (iii) long selection periods for stable expression. Transposon systems can be utilized to overcome the limitations mentioned in the efficient production of commercially significant recombinant proteins. This study aims to demonstrate the differences in production potential and selection periods by using a specially designed vector system for random genome integration in CHODG44 DHFR -/- cells and the Sleeping Beauty (SB) transposon system. In this context, the optimal transfer ratio between the donor and the helper plasmid was determined for the most efficient co-transfection in the SB transposon system. According to the results, the pools obtained using the SB transposon system had titers ranging from 1300 to 2600 mg/L in 13-day fed-batch studies, while the pool obtained using the random transfer system had a titer of 0.056 mg/L. Additionally, stable cell pools obtained using the transposon system underwent selection in a short period of 52 days, compared to over 100 days for the pool obtained through random transfer. Considering all these results together, it is demonstrated that stable CHO pools obtained using the optimal SB transposon system can achieve high-efficiency monoclonal antibody production in a short period, making it an optimal production platform in the biopharmaceutical field.

Authors: Kurdthongmee Wattanapong , Kurdthongmee Piyadhida
Published: June 2024

In the diverse realms of computer vision, psychology, biometrics, medicine, and robotics, the accurate estimation of pupil size and position holds paramount importance for applications like eye tracking, medical diagnostics, and facial recognition. Traditional pupil estimation techniques often grapple with speed and error issues, impeding their applicability in real-world scenarios. To address this challenge, our study introduces an innovative approach that significantly enhances both the speed and accuracy of pupil estimation. This method hinges on the fine-tuning of a pre-trained semantic segmentation model integrated with a shallow convolutional neural network (CNN) backbone. Our methodology employs a dual-phase process: initially leveraging a robust pre-trained semantic segmentation model, subsequently refined through targeted fine-tuning using a diverse collection of eye images. This process intricately learns pupil characteristics, substantially elevating detection precision. The incorporation of a shallow CNN backbone streamlines the model, ensuring rapid processing suitable for real-time applications. The novelty of our approach lies in its adept handling of varying lighting and camera conditions, establishing new benchmarks in both speed and accuracy, as evidenced by our experimental findings. This advancement marks a significant leap in pupil estimation technology, offering a practical, efficient solution with far-reaching implications in several key technological domains. Doi: 10.28991/HIJ-2024-05-02-016 Full Text: PDF

Published: June 2024

Despite the widespread use of Malay, under-resourced languages like Malay face challenges in Natural Language Processing (NLP), particularly in Part-of-Speech (POS) tagging. The scarcity of annotated corpora poses a primary obstacle to POS tagging in Malay. This study aims to enhance the effectiveness and reliability of POS tagging models explicitly tailored for under-resourced languages within the field of NLP, focusing on Malay. Existing models, which rely on Conditional Random Fields and Hidden Markov Models, exhibit limitations, underscoring the need for more robust approaches. The research conducts a comparative analysis of various deep-learning models with different encoders for POS tagging in Malay sentences. The experimental analysis demonstrates that the Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (Bi-LSTM) model, leveraging a pre-trained Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) embedding model, achieves exceptional accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 scores in predicting tags. Notably, the BERT + Bi-LSTM model, boasting an accuracy of 98.82%, outperforms other models, showcasing superior performance across all evaluated metrics. Additionally, this combined model effectively handles known and unknown words, yielding highly accurate POS tagging results for Malay sentences. Doi: 10.28991/HIJ-2024-05-02-04 Full Text: PDF

Para isso foi utilizada metodologia qualitativa com o uso do método estudo de caso, combinando três técnicas de coletas de dados: entrevista semiestruturada com proprietário ou gerente, funcionário, consultora e presidente do sindicato; observação participante em um restaurante; e análise de documentos como leis e decretos. Nos resultados notou-se, na instância do político, que os decretos que determinaram o fechamento total foi o que mais afetou os restaurantes sendo que as demais medidas foram reflexo ou meio de amenizar os impactos desse. Na instância das políticas de administração de recursos humanos, percebeu-se que as demissões foi o elemento que mais impactou empregadores e empregados dos restaurantes. E na instância da organização do processo de trabalho a adequação dos serviços sem receber os clientes no local e o uso de novas tecnologias foi o que mais impactou as empresas.

Este artigo discute as representações e práticas de hospitalidade e hostilidade no filme animado japonês Dragon Ball Z: A Batalha dos Deuses (2013). O filme narra a vinda de Bills, um Deus da Destruição e seu anjo assistente para a Terra em busca de um deus Super Saiyajin. Essa chegada inusitada suscita uma série de momentos de hospitalidade e hostilidade entre os personagens. Do ponto de vista metodológico, este trabalho caracteriza-se como exploratório e qualitativo, oriundo de um levantamento bibliográfico sobre a perspectiva da dádiva nos estudos de hospitalidade e sua aproximação com a hostilidade, e apoia-se nos princípios da análise da imagem, sobretudo, na semiótica – que permitiu desvelar os signos e suas possíveis representações no filme. A hospitalidade foi apresentada como ritual, desse modo desenvolveu-se de maneira complexa, pois os personagens nativos fizeram questão de demonstrar respeito e amizade, convidando os estrangeiros para uma festa privada, mesmo diante do potencial de destruição do visitante. No entanto, Bills permaneceu indiferente às convenções estabelecidas para a hospitalidade. A comida desempenha um papel crucial na relação, sendo uma dádiva oferecida ao estrangeiro. Quando esse ritual sacrificial foi quebrado, a hostilidade se instalou. Ressaltamos o aspecto subjetivo da hospitalidade na sociedade fictícia retratada no filme, simbolizado pelo próprio embate entre os personagens. A luta entre eles pode ser interpretada como uma forma de hospitalidade, em que a demonstração de poder e de habilidade representa uma maneira de receber e interagir com o visitante de forma única.

Na perspectiva das ciências humanas, o panorama dos estudos de hospitalidade indica a incipiência de bases epistemológicas perante um objeto que lhe é próprio: a casa das pessoas, especialmente as casas vernaculares. Assim, o presente artigo busca investigar teoricamente e empiricamente as possíveis e plurais relações entre a arquitetura vernácula e a hospitalidade, principalmente sob a luz das categorias analíticas da casa, comunidade e espiritualidade. A metodologia se baseia na pesquisa bibliográfica sobre hospitalidade e arquitetura vernácula diante do cruzamento de teorias e possíveis aplicabilidades com a proposição de categorias analíticas. Somada à discussão teórica, situa-se uma pesquisa de campo realizada em Lapinha da Serra (MG) com abordagem fenomenológica e percepção sensorial das relações entre arquitetura vernácula e hospitalidade. Conclui-se que a arquitetura vernácula se constitui através de aspectos relacionais e processuais da hospitalidade cuja tríade pode ser pensada a partir dos seguintes elementos imbricados entre si: casa, comunidade e espiritualidade.

The Ilizarov system is a form of external fixation device utilized by medical professionals to aid patients who have sustained injuries from accidents, bone shortening, or nonunion of the bone. The device is fixed onto the long bone of the patient and is adjusted according to the nature of the injury. Ilizarov's techniques are minimal invasiveness, not aggressive, spare tissues and involve little blood loss. It consists of wires that are secured to a modular circular frame and then tightened. The Ilizarov fixator is a valuable tool for treating acute fractures, especially in cases where there is bone loss and compromised soft tissue. Several studies have aimed to improve the effectiveness of Ilizarov fixation through modifications to its frame components, such as ring diameter, transosseous element diameter, ring separation, transosseous element count in each ring, and number of rings, as well as the type of transosseous element employed, including wires, full-pins, or half-pins. Furthermore, positioning of transosseous elements at the correct crossing angle without damaging the nerves and vessels while considering the intricacy of bone deformities. Recent advancements in Ilizarov fixation will be thoroughly reviewed in this manuscript, with a particular focus on improving the stiffness of the entire frame. The main objective of this review is to pinpoint the optimal configurations, with a particular focus on stiffness, in order to foster stability and ensure a successful recuperation.
Numerical Simulation of Performance Enhancement of Solar Vortex Engine

Published: June 2024

The solar vortex engine (SVE) has been investigated to generate power using renewable energy. The SVE was constructed from a vortex generation engine (VGE) and solar air collector (SAC). The SVE system primarily utilizes vertical air movement. However, the airflow entering the VGE experiences an obstruction. The purpose of this paper is to propose a new design for the VGE that creates a swirling updraft capable of overcoming air obstruction and reducing energy losses. A 3D numerical model of VGE was developed to visualize vortex generation. The modeling of the VGE is carried using SOLIDWORKS software and ANSYS-FLUENT 18. The improved VGE has six vertical twisted convergence blades connected to six guide vanes to direct updraft air in an anticlockwise swirl. All blades and vanes are housed in a VGE cylinder with a diameter of 20cm and a height of 30cm. The simulation results were validated by comparing with the results obtained from the present experimental model. The simulation results match with a mean difference of less than 5% with the experimental measurements. The results of the current CFD investigation indicate that there is a gradient in air temperature and pressure within the VGE, ranging from the highest values of 314 K and 3.85 Pa to the lowest values of 308 K and 2.42 Pa, respectively. The CFD visualization shows a threefold increase in axial velocity and a fivefold increase in tangential velocity within an artificial vortex. Therefore, it can be concluded that the new VGE construction is highly efficient in generating a vortex.

Researches are now being conducted on redesign as well as micro ergonomic interventions. Most micro-surgical tool designs concentrate on the manipulation of targeted tissue instead of the surgeon's hand, and this presents a new research opportunity for better fitting the equipment to the surgeon's hand. So the objective is to examine the advancements made in the last few years and provide a framework for ergonomic intervention framework regarding manufacturing systems. With the use of words like ergonomic design, intervention, and evaluation," the titles and abstracts of ergonomics publications were filtered to find relevant research. The paper describes the way that the concept of micro-ergonomics can enhance the design of the micro-instruments. Finally, an application of a new surgical instrument is stated as a pen needle holder designed by SOLIDWORK 22 which creating a wide range of possible uses for futuristic technology. In future, neurosurgical equipment design will incorporate concepts from surgical tool design together with penization, microergonomics, and electronics.

Published: June 2024

The study investigates into the motivations driving Syrian agricultural workers to migrate to Türkiye, attributing this movement to the prevalent conflict and economic instability in Syria, contrasting with Türkiye's perceived safety
and abundant job opportunities in agriculture. Before the crisis, Syrian workers engaged in traditional farming activities in both countries, but post-crisis, they shifted towards similar agricultural tasks in Türkiye. Despite
longer work hours and higher wages in Türkiye, many workers still struggle to meet their families' basic needs due to economic constraints. Various coping mechanisms are observed, including reliance on family support, and borrowing.
While humanitarian aid plays a crucial role post-crisis, limited opportunities for additional employment persist in both countries. Despite challenges, the agricultural sector offers advantages such as seasonal employment and inclusivity,
with women and multiple family members participating. Syrian workers in Türkiye contribute to increased agricultural productivity without requiring work permits, but their influx poses integration challenges for the host country.
These findings shed light on the complex dynamics surrounding the experiences of Syrian agricultural workers in Türkiye, offering insights into refugee integration and labor market dynamics in the agricultural sector.
