Authors: Bilgici Sinan Serkan ,   Department of Mathematics, Çankırı Karatekin University, Faculty of Sicence, Uluyazı Campus, 18100, Çankırı, Turkey, ŞAN Müfit
Published: September 2021

The first objective of this article is to discuss the local existence of the solution to an initial value problem involving a non-linear differential equation in the sense of Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative of order $ \sigma\in(1, 2), $ when the nonlinear term has a singularity at zero of its independent argument. Hereafter, by using some tools of Lebesgue spaces such as Hölder inequality, we obtain Nagumo-type, Krasnoselskii-Krein-type and Osgood-type uniqueness theorems for the problem.

Tumblr’s Xkit Guy, social media modding, and code as resistance
Authors: Glenhaber Mehitabel
Published: September 2021

The platformalization of the internet means that fan communities must make homes in spaces that they do not own. Tumblr has lately been the chosen home for many online fandoms because of its affordances for anonymity and lack of censorship. However, the profit motives of Tumblr's owners, especially after Yahoo purchased the site in 2013, are frequently at odds with the affordances that nourish fan communities. Fans on Tumblr are aware of their precarious position, where a few keystrokes by a developer could endanger an affordance that their communities depend on. An examination of the relationship between Tumblr users and Tumblr staff provides a case study of how fan communities push back against platform owners. The Tumblr Xkit Extension, a fan-made browser extension maintained by the volunteer labor of the Xkit Guy, is used to illustrate that the Tumblr community acts as a fandom of a social media site. This lets us understand the Xkit Browser extension as a resistant fan work written in the medium of code. Like video game modding, social media modding is a transformative work that permits fans to oppose the platform's code as law—but one that could also constitute a form of exploited labor.
An archive of whose own? White feminism and racial justice in fan fiction’s digital infrastructure
Authors: Stanfill Mel , Lothian Alexis
Published: September 2021

In summer 2020, when the language of racial reckoning entered US and transnational public spheres following the murder of George Floyd, the contradictions of fandom's long-standing claims to progressive politics became sharply visible. An open letter with specific demands asking the fan fiction platform Archive of Our Own (AO3) to address the issue of racist content in the archive circulated widely. After offering a brief history of critiques of fannish racism, we turn to the specifics of AO3, the political commitments embedded in its systems, and how attention to racial justice could transform them. Drawing on fan fiction genres, we offer three potential models for thinking through these possibilities: a fix-it that would extend AO3's existing metadata structures; a canon divergence that would alter the makeup of the content on AO3; and an alternative universe that draws from abolitionist organizing to imagine the broadest structural changes of all.

Authors: Kumar P.S. , Dhamodhara Kannan G.
Published: September 2021

La tendencia actual en los diseños de la ingeniería estructural es el abaratamiento de los sistemas estructurales mediante la optimización de sus elementos. En este trabajo se emplean métodos numéricos para obtener las dimensiones óptimas de secciones conformadas en frío (CFS) tipo C, Z y en I con perfiles huecos rectangulares (RHFB) que se usan para piezas en flexión. Para la optimización se usaron dos parámetros, la relación entre la dimensión del alma y la longitud del desarrollo (k) y la relación entre la longitud del ala y la longitud del labio (a). Los valores óptimos se obtuvieron mediante algoritmos genéticos. Se investiga la variación del momento resistido con las variaciones en la dimensión del alma, el ala y el labio. Las longitudes de desarrollo consideradas en este trabajo van de 100 mm a 500 mm y los espesores adoptados desde 1 mm a 3 mm. El momento resistido y el comportamiento a pandeo de las secciones conformadas en frío (CFS) se verifican mediante el análisis por elementos finitos no lineales usando ABAQUS.
Beyond the Wikipedian-in-Residence, or how to keep the flame burning
Authors: Gutiérrez De la Torre Sylvia E.
Published: September 2021

In 2017, the Biblioteca Daniel Cosío Villegas, an academic (and public) library in Mexico City, drafted the first grant-funded project in the region for training academic librarians in the Wikimedia universe. Drawing on my experience coordinating this project, this case study outlines suggestions for ensuring the continuity of Wikipedia and other Wikimedia endeavors in libraries. Before going in detail, I offer background data on Wikipedians-in-Residence (WIR) experiences around the globe, followed by the specific characteristics this position has had in different libraries. I then present a brief timeline of our project, an overview of our first “flame” (the #1Bib1Ref campaign), the ways we kept the “Wiki-flame” burning: leveraging our team’s strengths and collaborating, and some ideas on how to build your own “fireplace” through a minimal viable product approach, documentation, and feedback (where I share some thoughts on why Wikipedia may not even be the fireplace you were looking for, and that’s ok).
Changing the way stories are told: Engaging staff and students in improving Wikipedia content about women in Scotland
Authors: McAndrew Ewan
Published: September 2021

The University of Edinburgh was the first UK university to employ a Wikimedian-in-Residence (WiR) to support students and staff across the whole university. Over the last five years, the project aimed to develop information literacy and digital research skills and to address the gender disparity of editors and participants in the community. The project has demonstrated the University of Edinburgh’s commitment to foster staff and student engagement as active digital citizens of the world and was awarded the 2019 Herald Higher Education Award for “Innovative Use of Technology in the Curriculum.”

The residency also focuses on addressing the content on gender gaps and improving coverage of women in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Our first Wikipedia edit-a-thon in 2015 was based on “the Edinburgh Seven”—the first women to study medicine at the University. The WiR collaborated with the University archives team to develop an exhibit celebrating Scotland’s Suffragettes and facilitated a student internship that was awarded the Digital Humanities Award for Best Data Visualization 2019 for the Wikidata Map of Accused Witches in Scotland.

This chapter will showcase stories of student engagement and collaboration inside and outside the curriculum, providing exemplars of how students have engaged with, and been intrinsically motivated by, researching and publishing their scholarship online in a real-world application of their learning. This chapter will also outline why employing a Wikimedian-in-Residence, alongside other learning technologists and digital skills trainers, is a worthwhile return of investment for universities.
Notes from the field: Three Wikimedian-in-Residence case studies
Authors: O'Neil Erin , Severson Sarah
Published: September 2021

When the University of Alberta Library hired its first Wikimedian-in-Residence (WIR) in 2019, the team had difficulty finding detailed information about how to plan for a WIR and set up the role for success. This chapter details two Wikipedia residencies that served as a guide for the Alberta team in building their WIR project. Case studies of the University of Toronto and Concordia University in Montréal are presented alongside a case study of the University of Alberta. Each study includes details about how the role was approved and funded, how hiring decisions were made, how the WIR focused their efforts, and the impact at their institution. Together, these three examples demonstrate the variety of options for funding and hiring a WIR role and for the focus of the WIR’s work in their term. The chapter poses concrete questions for librarians considering implementing a WIR role at their institution and offers recommendations from each WIR experience as guidance in answering those questions.

“Yeah, I wrote that!”: Incorporating critical information literacy to build community inside and outside of Wikipedia
Authors: De Voe Kristina M. , Shaw Adrienne
Published: September 2021

In this chapter, we examine the relationship between open pedagogical practices and critical information literacy and how they intersect when Wikipedia is introduced in the classroom. Specifically, we discuss the collaboration between a librarian and a course instructor on iterations of Wikipedia assignments across three years and two classes. We unpack the importance of existing infrastructures, such as edit-a-thons and the WikiEdu dashboard, to support bringing Wikipedia assignments into the classroom. We also explore how we worked to connect course content to the renewable assignments and brought larger discussions of representation and community on Wikipedia into the classroom and assignments. Finally, we outline the lessons we learned through this collaboration. In sum, scaffolded projects allowed students to practice their contributions to Wikipedia in a supportive space and fostered critical engagement with course content. In their end-of-semester reflections, students stated that contributing to Wikipedia felt more meaningful and elicited feelings of pride that traditional, disposable assessments did not. They saw themselves as knowledge creators and scholarship creation as part of an ongoing conversation rather than an “end product.” By engaging in peer-review assignments, participating in edit-a-thons, and discussing the assignments with librarians who were not their professors, students also saw their work as part of a broader academic conversation. Through Wikipedia assignments, students can appreciate their own information privilege in terms of access to costly resources and become proactive in sharing that knowledge and their own growing expertise with a wider public.
Where history meets modern: An overview of academic primary source research-based learning programs aggregating special collections and Wikimedia
Authors: Essers Odin , Hazen Henrietta , Siep Nicolette
Published: September 2021

At Maastricht University Library, the use of literary sources from its Special Collections by students is promoted and facilitated through the development and organization of specialized research-based learning programs as part of the Wikipedia Education Program. The central aim of these learning programs is to educate students on the social relevance of the Special Collections, such as the Jesuit library, which contains books (on philosophy, history, anatomy, literature, theology, law, and various social sciences) dating back to the beginning of the sixteenth century. In addition, by participating in these programs, undergraduate students from various colleges are given the opportunity to develop their information literacy skills by gaining experience in conducting empirical literature research on primary historical sources and its publication through a popular open-access platform. Evaluations from students indicate that the unique combination of analyzing historical literature and the publication of their review on a modern open-access platform led to increased motivation, readership, sense of responsibility, and understanding about the importance of open-access knowledge transfer and valorization of information. In addition to the Wikipedia Education Program, Maastricht University has also been involved in a noneducational Wikimedia project: Wiki-Wetenschappers. The aim of this chapter is to provide an overview of the activities, approaches, and evaluation of the Wikipedia Education Program and the Wiki-Scientists project at Maastricht University.

Le Dieu de l’Histoire selon Rashi et Moses Hess
Authors: Naiweld Ron
Published: September 2021

Il s’agit de l’introduction à une enquête visant à relever la fonction historique de la figure divine dans le monde judéo-chrétien. Le point de départ est une série des dix lettres de Moses Hess sur « La mission d’Israël dans l’histoire de l’humanité », publiée en 1864 dans la revue Les Archives Israélites. Le projet proto-sioniste de Hess est ancré dans la réalité politique et sociale de son temps, tout en s’appuyant sur la structure exilique de l’histoire transmise par des écrits rabbiniques médiévaux. Le fait qu’un des éléments de la structure est un dieu soulève la question du rapport entre mythe et histoire. Les textes rabbiniques seront lus comme une source de savoir anthropologique-historique sur le dieu.
Prediction and Recommendation System for Diabetes Using Machine Learning Models
Authors: Mustary Nareshkumar , Singamsetty Phani Kumar
Published: September 2021

Diabetes is one of the most deadly diseases on the planet. It is also a cause of a variety of illnesses, such as coronary artery disease, blindness, and urinary organ disease. In this situation, the patient must visit a medical center to obtain their results following consultation. Finding the right combination of characteristics and machine learning techniques for classification is also very critical. However, with the advancement of machine learning techniques, we now have the potential to find a solution to the current problem. The healthcare recommendation system (HRS) may be designed to predict health by evaluating patient lifestyle, physical health, mental health aspects using machine learning. For example, training the model using people's age and diabetes helps to predict new patients without a specific diagnostic for diabetes. The proposed deep learning model with convolutional neural network (D-CNN) achieves an overall accuracy of 96.25%. D-CNN is found to be more successful for diabetes prediction than other machine learning (ML) approaches in the experimental analysis.

Published: September 2021

The current coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has placed tremendous pressure on the worldwide healthcare systems. The hospitals are instructing patients to quarantine and providing medical facilities to COVID-19 patients at their homes. The feedback and proper monitoring of the quarantined patients is very important for the healthcare system. This situation has forced the use of telehealth systems to offer the delivery of medical facilities over a distance. This chapter presents a wireless telehealth system to monitor the home quarantined COVID-19 patients effectively. When an abnormality is detected then an alert is sent to the concerned hospital or doctor. The presented system allows setting the thresholds and providing alerts, reminders, and notifications to the doctors. The prototype of the presented system has been successfully developed, implemented, and tested, which helps the medical staff to monitor and treat the patients remotely, especially the coronavirus patients who are home quarantined.

Artificial intelligence-enabled telemedicine is found to be a promising approach to monitor the health status of diabetic patients. Some of the promising artificial intelligence technologies for treating diabetic patients are a reactive machine, limited memory, theory of minds, and self-awareness. Each of these techniques is discussed with architecture, characteristics, algorithms, advantages, and applications. Performance analysis is carried out towards the performance metrics like accuracy, medical error rate, speed, and learning rate, and the performance achieved by self-awareness artificial intelligence technique is found to be better in delivering telemedicine-based care for diabetic patients with a very high level of precision and speed of operation.
Web-Based Modernized Architecture Over Cloud Computing for Facial Extraction and Recognition
Authors: ElAraby Mohamed ElSayed , Anter Ahmed M.
Published: September 2021

Web content is diverse and is regarded as the primary source of accessible information that can be accessed through reference links. Web facial images are one type of web content that relates to important web pages and is considered important information for individuals. This chapter proposes face recognition as a service architecture that is based on real-world images from the web. The proposed service is implemented as a service for other third parties via cloud computing; additionally, its architecture is built via cloud using virtual machines that can be expanded based on resource demands. Web crawlers crawl web pages and retrieve images for elastic cloud storage. The collected images are then used to remove human faces and prepare the face images for identification and identifying the matched face of the set through successive phases. This chapter used PCA for features extraction and KNN for identification. Experiments show that increasing the number of crawler instances improves crawling speed and improves face recognition accuracy by preferring Euclidean over other metrics.

Quality Assurance of Higher Education From the Glonacal Agency Heuristic
Authors: Phan Anh Ngoc Quynh
Published: September 2021

In the era of globalization, higher education acts as a player in the game, presenting a vivid picture of how the system manifests the globalizing process of a nation. This chapter takes a critical look at quality assurance of higher education in a country, Vietnam, under the impacts of international organizations. Drawing on Marginson and Rhoades's glonacal agency heuristic, the chapter aims to argue that quality assurance has been prioritized as one of the core stepping stones for Vietnam to participate in international and regional educational space. It further explains while international organizations as global actors have set the foundation for quality assurance in Vietnam and introduced neoliberal ideas into the system including institutional autonomy, decentralization and social accountability, the national tradition of state-eccentric power, and the discrepancies among local institutions divert the quality assurance system away from such neoliberal ideas. The organizations that are the focus of the chapter include the World Bank, ASEAN, and ASEAN University Network.
Developing a Quality Management Systems Framework for Business Management Institutes
Authors: Ramakrishna Yanamandra
Published: September 2021

There has been an increasing awareness about implementation of quality management systems (QMS) in higher educational institutions worldwide in the recent past. Improved awareness levels among aspiring students, competitive environment, students' preference to seek admission in quality-oriented institutions, compelling norms of regulatory authorities, and the urge of institutions to be among the top are the major reasons for this increased awareness. Existence and continuance of some of the institutes, especially the management institutes, has become a challenging task without focusing on QMS through a strategic approach. Implementation of QMS provides a direction for accreditations by top-rated agencies. This chapter develops a framework to enable the implementation of QMS by the management institutes by conducting a systematic analysis of accreditation standards of various agencies worldwide. The outcomes of this research would enable the management and other stakeholders of business management institutes to focus on key aspects towards implementing the QMS.

Published: September 2021

Quality assurance and accreditation are the most pronounced words in the education sector. Quality culture involves all stakeholders in the process. Students who are the major stakeholders play a vital role in the QA process of an institution. The role of students in QA process in Oman context has been covered by conducting interviews from both students and staff members. The current study has been conducted on all the 13 branches of University of Technology and Applied Sciences. An online interview schedule was arranged with five students and two staff members from each branch. The list of students and staff was collected from the quality assurance department of UTAS branches. The results of the study showed that students are actively participating in various programs. The main hindrances to student involvement are low awareness about QA processes, time constraints, and low student representation towards QA processes.

Published: September 2021

Background & objectives:

Vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 is a recommendation from the World Health Organization as the foremost preference in the current situation to control the COVID-19 pandemic. BBV152 is one of the approved vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 in India. In this study, we determined SARS-CoV-2–specific antibody levels at day 0 (baseline, before vaccination), day 28 ± 2 post-first dose (month 1) and day 56 ± 2 post-first dose (month 2) of BBV152 whole-virion–inactivated SARS-CoV-2 recipients, and compared the antibody responses of individuals with confirmed pre-vaccination SARS-CoV-2 infection to those individuals without prior evidence of infection.

Methods:

Blood samples were collected from 114 healthcare professionals and frontline workers who received BBV152 vaccine from February to May & June 2021. Prior infection with SARS-CoV-2 was determined at baseline. Serum samples were used to estimate SARS-CoV-2 nucleoprotein-specific IgG [IgG (N)], spike protein-specific IgG [IgG (S)] and neutralizing antibodies (NAb).

Results:

Participants with previous SARS-CoV-2 infection after a single vaccine dose elicited IgG (N) and IgG (S) antibody levels along with NAb binding inhibition responses levels were similar to infection-naïve vaccinated participants who had taken two doses of vaccine.

Interpretation & conclusions:

Our preliminary data suggested that a single dose of BBV152-induced humoral immunity in previously infected individuals was equivalent to two doses of the vaccine in infection-naïve individuals. However, these findings need to be confirmed with large sized cohort studies.

AQUISIÇÃO DO PORTUGUÊS COMO SEGUNDA LÍNGUA PARA SURDO: história de entraves e conquistas no Brasil
Authors: Santos Rosilda , Cavalcanti Wanilda
Published: September 2021

Considerando o contexto histórico da Educação Inclusiva, marcada pelas mais variadas formas de desrespeito, marginalização e preconceito voltados para a pessoa com deficiência, entende-se que esta pauta seja necessária na discussão, pois ainda há muito a se fazer, já que os surdos continuam enfrentando entraves de aceitação na educação e na sociedade devido a todo contexto, apesar de terem convivido por muito tempo com tantos estigmas de incapacidade e impotência. Este estudo objetiva socializar resultados de uma breve investigação sobre o percurso histórico da educação dos surdos no Brasil indicando seus possíveis entraves e conquistas, uma vez que o resgate histórico orienta o conhecimento de como se sucedeu a educação especial, inclusive, no surgimento de organizações a partir de 1930 extremamente relevantes para fortalecer os direitos das pessoas deficientes. Para isso, foi realizado, como metodologia, um levantamento bibliográfico de caráter exploratório a fim de desenhar marcos históricos, entre 1854 à atualidade, obtendo dados para uma análise qualitativa, pois esclarecerá pontos que contribuem para formação da identidade dos surdos. Como resultado, percebeu-se que a trajetória histórica da educação inclusiva no Brasil expõe as lacunas entre a legislação, políticas públicas e sua efetividade.

Na ocasião, os 21 estudantes matriculados na disciplina foram divididos em quatro grupos e, por meio do WhatsApp, os discentes interagiram entre si com o objetivo de resolver um caso de ensino que apresentava uma situação-problema real. As interações foram mediadas pelas tecnologias e cada grupo recebeu um perfil de cliente diferente que precisaria ser estudado entre os integrantes de cada equipe e, ao final, cada grupo precisaria apresentar um argumento consistente resolvendo a problemática supracitada. A atividade intitulada como “Desafio 24 horas” abarca situações cotidianas que emergem o tempo todo no campo dos negócios e requer tomada de decisões fundamentadas e coerentes em tempo hábil, para que os clientes não desistam de realizar suas compras com uma determinada empresa. Nesta lógica, a atividade explorou as atitudes dos pós-graduandos frente a uma problemática que demandou diálogo, colaboração, pesquisa, reflexão e outros valores no âmbito da disciplina de Jogos de Negócios, suscitando o desenvolvimento de uma aprendizagem mais humana e ativa na pós-graduação.
Rights enforcement in the African Human Rights Court: Restrictiveness, progressivity and resistance
Authors: Chenwi Lilian
Published: September 2021

Africa is characterised by, inter alia, oppressive political systems, a culture of impunity of those who govern, and the use of state sovereignty mantra in the face of gross and systematic rights violations. Yet, African states have, through the establishment of the African Human Rights Court, created an avenue for judicial scrutiny of their laws and executive action that affect human rights. While the Court holds great promise in relation to fighting impunity and the provision of effective remedies for rights violations, ensuring respect for human rights, and fostering Africa’s quest for good governance, development and regional integration, it operates amidst state resistance and other complexities, which threaten its effectiveness and existence. This article considers whether, against this background, the Court has shown restrictiveness or progressivity in its enforcement of rights.
Customary international humanitarian law: An overview of Kenya’s state practice in the post-2010 Constitution era
Authors: Mutuma Kenneth Wyne
Published: September 2021

With the exception of the shifta wars in the northern part of the country, Kenya has, for the greater part of its post-colonial history, enjoyed relative conditions of peace. This, in turn, has affected the volume of and quality of knowledge on Kenya’s state practice on international humanitarian law (IHL). The Customary IHL study of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) in 2005 reviewed state practice in the country at the time, based on materials such as military manuals, national laws and case law. However, since 2005, two significant events have had a direct bearing on the country’s IHL state practice. The first is the ushering in of a new constitutional order through the Constitution of Kenya, 2010, and the second is the Kenyan military troops’ incursion into Somalia against the Somali terrorist group, Al-Shabaab. This paper looks at the significant ways in which these two events have led to key additions to Kenya’s state practice, under four main headings: military manuals, national laws, court cases and other sources.
MENORES EXTRANJEROS: DOCUMENTO OFICIAL EXTRANJERO CONTRA PRUEBAS MÉDICAS EN LA DOCTRINA ADMINISTRATIVA Y JUDICIAL CONTENCIOSO-ADMINISTRATIVA ESPAÑOLA
Authors: LAFONT NICUESA LUIS
Published: September 2021

Con frecuencia se está planteando situaciones en que de un documento
oficial extranjero ¿normalmente un pasaporte¿ se deduce, atendiendo a
la fecha de nacimiento, una edad determinada de su titular y de las pruebas médicas
practicadas a esa misma persona resulta una edad distinta. El problema alcanza
su mayor intensidad cuando en un instrumento probatorio resulta ser mayor
y en otro menor. En tal caso, el estatuto jurídico-administrativo del extranjero
se modifica sustancialmente al poder ser expulsado administrativamente si se
trata de un mayor de edad. El objeto del presente trabajo es analizar las resoluciones
administrativas y judiciales que examinan la materia.

Sarri askotan gertatzen da atzerriko dokumentu ofizial batetik
¿gehienetan, pasaporte batetik¿, jaiotze-eguna kontuan hartuta, titularrak adin
jakina daukala uste izatea, eta gero azterketa medikuek erakustea pertsona horrek
beste adin bat duela. Arazoa intentsitate handienera iristen da baldin probarako
tresna batean adinez nagusia irteten bada eta bestean adinez txikia. Kasu horretan,
atzerritarraren estatutu juridiko-administratiboa asko aldatzen da, adinez nagusia
baldin bada gerta litekeelako administrazio bidetik herrialdetik kanpora bidaltzea.
Lan honen helburua da gai hori lantzen duten ebazpen administratiboak eta judizialak
aztertzea.

It happens very often that on the basis of a foreign official
document ¿normally a passport¿ in accordance with the date of birth therein,
a concrete age of its holder is deduced and the clinical tests to that same person
show a different age. The problem reaches at its utmost intensity when as a result
of a probative tool in one is older than in the other. If that is the case, the legal
administrative status for the foreigner is substantially modified because he or
she is older than 18 years old. The scope of this present work is to analyze the
administrative and judicial resolutions which study the topic.
LA MENTE DEL LEGISLADOR EN LOS PROGRAMAS DE LA ASIGNATURA DE EDUCACIÓN POLÍTICA EN LAS ESCUELAS ALEMANAS, EN LA LOE Y EN LA LEGISLACIÓN EDUCATIVA DE LA CAPV
Authors: ELÓSEGUI ICHASO MARÍA
Published: September 2021

Este artículo trata de la legislación sobre los programas de Educación
política en Alemania, siguiendo el itinerario de la asignatura desde la intención
o la mente del legislador a la hora de diseñar unos contenidos legalmente
obligatorios hasta el control administrativo de los manuales, para continuar con
su puesta en práctica en el aula. El diseño de los contenidos concretos de la asignatura
son realizados por cada Land alemán. Se introducen algunas comparaciones
entre el modelo alemán con la mentalidad del legislador autonómico de la
CAPV a la hora del diseño de la educación en Derechos Humanos en su legislación
educativa, así como una comparación de la asignatura alemana de Politik con el
diseño de las asignaturas de Historia y de EpC, estudiando en este caso tanto la
LOE como la legislación de la CAPV.

Alemaniako hezkuntza-politikako programen gaineko legislazioari
buruzkoa da honako artikulu hau. Ikasgaiaren ibilbidea jarraituko dugu,
legegileak legeak derrigortutako eduki batzuk diseinatzen dituen unean buruan
duen asmotik hasi eta manualen kontrol administratibora arte; gero, ikasgai hori
gelan nola taxutzen den aztertuko dut. Ikasgaiaren eduki zehatzen diseinua Alemaniako
Lan bakoitzak egiten du bere kasa. Zenbait alderaketa ere egingo ditut,
eredu alemaniarra eta EAEko legegile autonomikoaren mentalitatea konparatzeko,
bakoitzaren hezkuntza-legediaren arabera Giza Eskubideen arloko hezkuntza nola
diseinatzen duten ikusteko. Politik ikasgai alemana ere alderatuko dut hemengo
Historia eta EpC ikasgaiarekin, HLO eta EAEko legedia aztertuz.

This article deals with the legislation of the programmes of the
subject «Political Education» in Germany by following the educational pathway
on the basis of the legislator¿s purpose and mind when establishing some
compulsory legal contents an as far as the administrative control of materials,
and finally with the introduction into the classroom. The design of the concrete
contents of the subject is established by each German Land. They are introduced
some comparisons between the German model and the autonomic legislator¿s
mind from the Basque Country when it comes to designing Education in Human
Rights in its educative legislation as well as a comparison between the German
subject Politik and the design of subjects as History and Education for Citizenship,
by studying in this case both the Organic Act on Education and the legislation of
the Autonomous Community of the Basque Country.
An Examination of Student Success within Canadian Higher Education: Fifty Years of Findings and Recommendations for the Future
Authors: Holmes Jason R.
Published: September 2021

This article explores the student success literature published within the Canadian Journal of Higher Education (CJHE) over the last fifty years. Sixty articles were thematically organized into seven component measures of student success to present consistent themes that have persisted within the CJHE from inception in 1971 to 2020. Analysis demonstrates that there has been a disproportionate interest in some aspects of student success such as post-college performance, while other areas such as educational attainment and student engagement have lagged considerably behind in focus. Scholars have presentedongoing concerns supported by a wide range of data regarding the underemployment of graduates from Arts and Humanities, the sparse professorial landscape and the underutilization of Canadian PhD graduates in the workforce, debate on student competence and skill measurement, and the lack of large data sets on student persistence. Results suggest that a continuous effort is required to understand and support student success in a variety of formats—both within the academy and out in the workforce. Thus, this article concludes with a discussion and recommendations for future research avenues in the field of academic success and various subfields that may be of interest to higher education scholars and those who support student success.
