Artificial Intelligence based Automated Sign Gesture Recognition Solutions for Visually Challenged People
Authors:   Computer Science Department, Faculty of Computing and Information Technology, King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah 21589, Saudi Arabia, Khalid Khalid
Published: October 2024

Gesture recognition is employed in human-machine communications, enhancing human life with impairments or who depend on non-verbal instructions. Hand gestures role an important role in the field of assistive technology for persons with visual impairments, whereas an optimum user communication design is of major importance. Many authors with substantial development for gesture recognition modeled several methods by using deep learning (DL) methods. This article introduces a Robust Gesture Sign Language Recognition Using Chicken Earthworm Optimization with Deep Learning (RSLR-CEWODL) approach. The projected RSLR-CEWODL algorithm majorly focuses on the recognition and classification of sign language. To accomplish this, the presented RSLR-CEWODL technique utilizes a residual network (ResNet-101) model for feature extraction. For optimal hyper parameter tuning process, the presented RSLR-CEWODL algorithm exploits the CEWO algorithm. Besides, the RSLR-CEWODL technique uses a whale optimization algorithm (WOA) with deep belief network (DBN) method for the sign language recognition method. The simulation result of the RSLR-CEWODL algorithm is tested using sign language datasets and the outcome was measured under various measures. The simulation values demonstrated the enhancements of the RSLR-CEWODL technique over other methodologies.
Can ICT build a solid bridge to a more "engaged" and collaborative practice in doctoral study?
Authors: Espinoza-Ramos Rossana , Hammond Michael
Published: October 2024

This paper is focused on a Teaching Quality funded project, begun in June 2006, to develop the use of ICT to support doctorate study, in particular to address a concern that there was insufficient sharing of resources and general communication between doctoral students, and also between supervisors and doctoral students. In addition, there was felt to be a more specific problem in that part-time students, at least those at a distance from Warwick, had difficulties in physically accessing research methods courses. The project looked, further, at whether ICT developments could sustain a shift to a more “engaged” and collaborative practice.
This was an exploratory study, conducted within an action research approach, with cycles of reconnaissance, design and implementation, and evaluation leading to further developments. The reconnaissance provided the background and orientation to the project. It was found that doctoral students regarded collaboration very highly but many did not take advantage of the opportunities to meet with other doctoral students. It was also found that students made widespread use of ICT to access material but much less use to communicate with peers. Email use was centred on exchanges with the supervisor. Doctoral students used ICT purposefully, but not as so called 'digital natives'. They did not own the language of technology or see it as central to their lives. Hence the first round of implementation focused on the development of a website with material such as: research training material; seminar resources; upgrade support; Graduate Association projects; and study skills support.
Overall, the development of the website was well-received, and attracted attention and raised expectations. However, it has not addressed head-on a prevailing culture that often leads to habits of independent study, rather than community. Here an incremental approach to change needs to be undertaken. The next round of developments will focus on networking and sharing knowledge. E-Portfolios are being developed as a departmental initiative with the hope this will help foster networking amongst doctoral students and engagement towards the further use of ICT. Another initiative revamping discussion forums. However, ICT developments are seen as only aspect of a wider picture in which collaboration is being encouraged.
The role of the developer in institutional change
Authors: Little Sabine
Published: October 2024

This paper explores the role of ‘Learning Development and Research Associate’ (LDRA) in facilitating a community with one pedagogical focus within the institutional context. The role exists within one particular CETL (Centre for Excellence in Teaching and Learning), established by the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) as part of the largest national drive for learning and teaching enhancement as yet. All CETLs have the remit to reward excellence in teaching and learning and to drive forward institutional change. The CETL within which the study took place is tightly focused on a pedagogic approach that seeks to empower learners to conduct their own inquiries, either independently or in groups, and to gain the skills necessary for inquiry-based learning, including information literacy, reflection, learner independence, and self-management. In assisting staff with curriculum development, CILASS (the Centre for Inquiry-based Learning in the Arts and Social Sciences) employs two LDRAs who the pedagogical and development support, which often involves the use of networked learning technologies. The paper draws on existing literature that seeks to illustrate the role of learning technologists and educational developers in order to review the wider context within which the study is located.
CILASS uses an evaluation approach which combines Theory of Change and Enabling, Process and Outcome Indicators in order to evaluate both the CETL as a whole and the projects that are developed in departments. This approach encourages a high level of reflexivity and invites LDRAs to research their own role within the CETL. This paper forms part of this reflection, in exploring what role the LDRAs play in facilitating an institutional community with the pedagogical focus on inquiry-based learning. The use of technology plays a specific part as it is not only a common denominator for staff who are interested in developing their teaching, but also forms an actual opportunity for community development through usage of social networking tools. Part of the data for this paper were gathered using such tools.
Developing an Evidence Base for Engagement and Impact in Higher Education Institutional e-Learning Projects
Authors: Carmichael P. , Papaefthimiou M-C , Alberts P. , George H. , Conole G. , Brown R.
Published: October 2024

This poster argues that an evidence-informed approach can be appropriate for ensuring accountability and validity of change initiatives in Higher Education (HE) in general and e-learning specifically, if recognition is made of the local context and the evidence-base gathered and used in situ. We describe how this model of evidence-informed practice is applied in relation to the HE Academy Pathfinder programme, a national "transformation initiative" in the UK. The goals of the programme are focused on exploiting and developing synergies to enhance and change practice where necessary. Four institutions (Cambridge, Reading, Brunel and London South Bank) are implementing an evidence-informed approach in different ways depending on their institutional context and culture. This poster draws upon collaborative activities of these institutions, focusing on the way in which they adapt common approaches to support their respective institutional change processes. It outlines the approaches adopted by each project and highlights the role of evidence in informing engagement with stakeholders and participants, and the development of practice in HE; ways of sharing models of evidence-informed practice in HE; and research approaches that can improve engagement with stakeholders and participants - while still generating high-quality research outcomes.
Symposium 11: Students blending learning user preferences
Authors: Childs Mark , Espinoza-Ramos Rossana
Published: October 2024

This paper describes the preliminary findings of the JISC (Joint Information Systems Committee) funded project BLUPs (Students Blending Learning User Preferences). The project is part of JISC's Learner Experience Programme and is a collaboration between the Universities of Warwick and Northumbria. The aim of the project is to identify the range of provision that students choose when engaged in informal self-directed learning with respect to these three dimensions:

Social spaces and individual spaces
Institutional provision and personal provision
Physical environment and virtual environment

The project began in March 2007 and is due to finish in February 2009. The pilot phase interviews were conducted during July and August 2007 and the analysis took place between August and November 2007. The main phase of the project is taking place throughout the remainder of the 2007/08 academic year. Final conclusions and dissemination will take place during the final five months of the project. As a result of the pilot phase of the project an indicative typology of students' preferences, linked to the students' rationale for those choices, has been developed.
During the pilot phase, twelve students were interviewed at the University of Northumbria and eight at the University of Warwick. The responses made by the students were clustered into groups with common attributes, in which the choices they made consistently correlated with the factors influencing them. The intention throughout this process was to create divisions that were detailed enough to provide a close approximation of the students' experiences and yet simple enough to be a practical tool to help practitioners.
From the interview data the following observations were made:

Whether students preferred to work singly or in groups was a dominant factor in their choices of provision. However students who were social online were not necessarily social offline, and vice versa.
Students' use of technology did not progress along a continuum of less literate to more literate, or less usage to more usage. Some sophisticated users of technology did not use the social networking sites of their peers, but they were using technologies that the social networkers did not. Students used one or other (or neither) of these sets of tools, but not both.
A minority of students also used additional technologies, but in these instances there was always an identifiable factor behind this usage, which differed from student to student, but was consistent where the factor was present.

The categories developed during this pilot phase were used to analyse case studies from a previous JISC project and were found to be applicable to those data. The categories will be used to structure the interviews and data gathered during the main phase of the project. The main phase will also be an opportunity to further test the generalisablity of the categories.
Symposium 7: Learning Cultures in Online Education
Authors: Goodfellow Robin
Published: October 2024

The papers in this symposium are based on contributions to an edited collection of work that addresses the theme of 'learning cultures in online education', to be published by Continuum books later this year (Goodfellow & Lamy in preparation). Research on online learning cultures is an important corollary to the use of e-learning to develop 'transnational' and 'cross-border' education markets if the social and pedagogical benefits from these developments are to keep pace with the corporate and institutional ones, but it is also a corollary to the teaching of the increasingly diverse learner cohorts that inhabit formal online learning communities, and to the increasingly blurred distinction between these learning communities and the more informal ones that are appearing in a variety of sites of online social networking. The work collected in the book addresses issues such as the continuing relevance of a conceptualisation of culture that equates it with national identity and locates it in the behaviour of individual learners, the processes through which identities and value systems are negotiated amongst individual and institutional actors in virtual learning environments, the complex role of technologies themselves as cultural actors, and the relationship between formal educational and popular media cultures. The three papers in this symposium address: the nature of research into culture in online learning to date, and the new directions proposed in the forthcoming book; the role of ritualised and textualised language in the construction and presentation of identities online; and the influence of the 'behaviour' of technical environments on the cultural ecology of online learning communities.
Symposium 2: Ubiquitous Learning: An Agenda for Educational Transformation
Authors: Cope Bill , Kalantzis Mary
Published: October 2024

Ubiquitous learning is a new educational paradigm made possible in part by the affordances of digital media. This paper sets out to explore the dimensions of this proposition.
We can use new technologies to do learn old things in old ways. We can set up the ubiquitous computing devices in our contemporary world to do old-fashioned didactic teaching: the teacher or publisher puts content into a learning management system; the learner works through the content step by step; the learner does a test at the end and gets a mark which says they have passed or failed. We can use computers to recreate traditional, transmission pedagogies which anticipate a mimetic relationship to knowledge—absorb the theories, the practice formulae, the facts, the greats, the canon, the socio-moral truths that others have deemed will be good for you. There are some differences, to be sure—the image of the solar system in the old science textbook stays still but the planets move around the sun in the digital ‘learning object’—but the learner’s relationship to knowledge and the processes of pedagogy have not changed in any significant way (Kalantzis 2006; Kalantzis and Cope 2008).
The emergence of ubiquitous computing creates new conditions for all working as education professionals and learning as students. The key is not the logic or technical specifications of the machines. Rather it is the new ways in which meaning is created, stored, delivered and accessed. This, we believe, will change the educational world in some fundamental ways—and also allow some older but good and disappointingly neglected educational ideas to work at last and work widely. The journey of ubiquitous learning is only just beginning. Along that journey. we need to develop breakthrough practices and technologies that allow us to reconceive and rebuild the content. procedures and human relationships of teaching and learning.
In this paper, we suggest seven moves which are characteristic of ubiquitous learning. Each explores and exploits the potentials of ubiquitous computing. None, however, is a pedagogical thought or social agenda that is new to the era of ubiquitous computing. The only difference today is that there is now no practical reason not to make each of these moves. The affordances are there, and if we can, perhaps we should. And when we do, we may discover that a new educational paradigm begins to emerge. And as new paradigms emerge, we might find they take a leading role on technological innovation.
Symposium 2: Ubiquitous Transformations
Authors: Haythornthwaite Caroline
Published: October 2024

Internet-based trends that emphasize contribution, conversation, participation, and community exercise a significant impact on learning. They bring changes in where we find information, who we learn from, how learning progresses, and how we contribute to our learning and the learning of others. This paper addresses two aspects of participatory transformations arising from ubiquitous, networked learning: the invisible work of networked learners, and the changing nature of networked learning relationships.
While much attention is given to the unlimited possibilities for retrieving from online sources, little addresses the limits to such sources or the work that devolves to the learner for critical evaluation of retrieved information. Distributed practices entail a redistribution of processes and responsibilities to individuals who then perform the invisible work of networked learning. An autonomous learner is responsible for, and in many cases alone, in creating their own learning context and content as they search the internet for materials to support their needs. Such distribution of responsibilities increases the need for individuals to attain a variety of media literacy skills, including social skills in online participation and critical evaluation skills to use to evaluate retrieved content and retrieval techniques. Critical attention is also needed for the impact of ubiquitous contribution and retrieval afforded by the Internet, including whose information content predominates on the net, and whose is most likely to be retrieved by common retrieval techniques (e.g., through popularity rankings). This raises the need for not only critical media literacy, but also critical retrieval and retrieval technology literacy.
Distribution is also realigning of network roles and relations. Experts in the form of information professionals and teachers are bypassed in the expedience and convenience of retrieval and learning from the web. Peers and other learners become information sources and teachers. Emergent changes in relationships that affect educational settings include changes in authorial relationships with leaders, instructors and documentary sources, peer relationships with other learners (both contemporary and past), and relationships with local communities and networks. This paper explores these changes in roles and relations addressing questions such as: What is expertise in the age of participatory learning, and whose definition is it anyway? In an age of participatory culture, and participatory learning, what are the roles of learners and teachers? What are the practices required of each? How will the persistent record left by so much online participation be used? What is the worth of a publisher’s or journal name in the age of wikipedia? What does local mean in the age of online learning? And, What is the role of local in online learning?

Published: October 2024

Anemia refers to a decrease in serum hemoglobin concentration to pathological levels where hemoglobin level in women is <12 g/dl and in men <14 g/dl. More than 40% of cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy are subjected to anemia.  As chemotherapy drugs are unable to distinguish between normal and neoplastic cells, their destructive nature results in a reduced number of red blood cells through the hemolysis process. The principles of chemotherapy are required to maintain a number of normal cells to avoid unintended side effects. This study aimed to investigate the hemoglobin levels before and after chemotherapy. The method of this study was qualitative, using a case study approach. The study sample consisted of three individuals, and the hemoglobin levels were assessed using the EasyTouch hemoglobinometer. The data were processed using Colaizzi’s analysis method: reading, meaning formulation, and theming. The results of this study were presented in three themes: (1) anemia occurred due to oxidative stress, (2) a decrease in the number of red blood cells caused by lysis; and (3) PRC transfusion as a way to overcome anemia. It can be concluded that a decrease in the number of red blood cells is inevitable. Therefore, patients are advised to get sufficient rest, increase their intake of nutritious food, and consume iron vitamins.

Abstract
Wrist pain is a condition where an individual experiences discomfort in the wrist, which both traumatic and non-traumatic factors can cause. Non-traumatic wrist pain often results from inflammation in the tissues around the carpal tunnel, leading to its narrowing. This condition is commonly seen in activities that involve prolonged and repetitive hand movements, such as in batik artisans. This study aimed to determine the effect of ginger extract and the combination of ginger extract with nerve gliding exercise on wrist pain in batik artisans in Papringan Village, Banyumas. This study employed a pre-experimental design with a two-group pretest-posttest approach. The population consisted of batik artisans in Papringan Village, with a sample size of 20 individuals selected using a total sampling technique. Data analysis included both univariate and bivariate analyses. The study found a significant effect of ginger extract and the combination of ginger extract with nerve gliding exercise on reducing wrist pain. Wrist pain experienced a reduction and had a substantial effect, as evidenced by a high correlation coefficient.

Published: October 2024

Proses transportasi komponen otomotif di PT XYZ masih dilakukan secara manual dengan melibatkan tenaga manusia, sehingga mendorong PT XYZ untuk mempertimbangkan penggunaan teknologi Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) guna meningkatkan efisiensi dan efektivitas proses transportasi. Meskipun penerapan teknologi AGV di PT XYZ dapat memberikan manfaat dalam meningkatkan efisiensi dan produktivitas, terdapat keterbatasan pada sistem AGV. Proses perubahan rute harus dilakukan secara manual dengan memprogram ulang setiap AGV satu per satu, yang memakan waktu dan tenaga besar serta meningkatkan risiko kesalahan dan inkonsistensi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengatasi keterbatasan tersebut dengan merancang dan mengembangkan REST API untuk mendukung fungsionalitas sistem manajemen rute AGV. Metode pengujian yang digunakan adalah black box testing untuk mengevaluasi fungsionalitas sistem tanpa memeriksa struktur internal kodenya. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa sistem berhasil memenuhi kebutuhan pengguna dengan tingkat keberhasilan 100% dari 101 skenario pengujian. REST API yang dikembangkan mampu mengintegrasikan data rute AGV dan mempublikasikan serta memperbarui rute melalui MQTT broker. Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberikan solusi yang tepat untuk membantu PT XYZ mewujudkan potensi maksimalnya dalam penggunaan teknologi AGV.

Підходи та стратегії ведення бізнесу постійно розвиваються та еволюціонують, а з ними разом розвиваються та еволюціонують і концепції маркетингу. Аналіз еволюції концепцій маркетингу, з їх зміною ставлення до виробництва, продукції, споживача і суспільства в цілому, має не тільки теоретичний, науковий інтерес, а й практичне застосування у формуванні стосунків між компанією, споживачем, партнерами та суспільством. Метою дослідження є поглиблення теоретико-методологічних засад та аргументація впровадження концепції соціально-етичного маркетингу в компаніях та організаціях. Визначення переваг та викликів, які виникають при інтеграції соціально-етичного маркетингу у загальну стратегію бізнесу компаній та організацій. У статті автором застосовано методи теоретичної систематизації та узагальнення, що допомогло сформувати наукове уявлення концепції соціально-етичного маркетингу, її сутності, складових та принципів, які є ключовими елементами для формування етичної, моральної та соціально-відповідальної маркетингової стратегії. Проаналізовано історичний розвиток маркетингових концепцій від виробничої до соціально-етичної у розрізі розвитку відносин з споживачем та моральних і етичних нормах веденню бізнесу. Виявлено зростаюче значення етичних та моральних норм і соціальної відповідальності у маркетинговій діяльності компаній та організацій. Встановлено, що під час ведення бізнесу та маркетинговій діяльності впровадження концепції соціально-етичного маркетингу дає змогу не тільки досягти своїх комерційних цілей, а й вплинути на імідж, репутацію, конкурентоспроможність компаній та організацій, а також і на бренд в цілому. Сформульовано, які переваги несе впровадження концепції соціально-етичного маркетингу для компаній та організацій. Проте, наразі можна спостерігати, що практичне впровадження концепції соціально-етичного маркетингу може бути складнішим через різні економічні, культурні та соціальні фактори. Крім того, вплив соціально-етичних ініціатив може відрізнятися залежно від галузі ведення бізнесу. Теоретичне значення дослідження полягає в узагальненні та систематизації знань про концепцію соціально-етичного маркетингу, що сприятиме розвитку теоретичних підходів до вивчення концепції соціально-етичного маркетингу та поглибленню розуміння її сутності, складових та принципів.

Diploma Program Accounting students are prepared with various graduate profiles but are not designed as Sharia accountants even though in practice Sharia financial accounting standards have also been issued. Unfortunately, these financial accounting standards have been contaminated by modern accounting science that is godless or secular. So this socialization program needs to be carried out with the aim of liberating the thinking of academic [accountant] communities from the traps of capitalism. The method used is humanist-theocentric in the field of education for both students and the community, socialization is carried out using lecture methods and question and answer discussions. The initial material that we provide is to make students aware that there is a dark side to accounting that needs to be revealed and becomes a reason to migrate towards idealistic accounting. Idealistic Sharia accounting adjusts the form to its place, does not aim to increase assets or make a profit. Idealistic Sharia accounting is often found in everyday life such as household accounting, accounting in the month of Ramadan and hospital accounting. This field needs to be studied by all of us because we will all experience it.
Mahasiswa Akuntansi Program diploma dipersiapkan dengan berbagai profil lulusan tapi tidak dirancang sebagai akuntan Syariah padahal prakteknya juga telah terbit standar akuntansi keuangan Syariah. Sayangnya standar akuntansi keuangan tersebut telah terkontaminasi sains akuntansi modern yang tidak berketuhanan atau bersifat sekular. Sehingga program sosialisasi ini perlu dilakukan dengan tujuan untuk membebaskan pemikiran sivitas [akuntan] akademisi dari jerat-jerat kapitalis. Metode yang digunakan adalah humanis-teosentris dalam bidang pendidikan baik kepada mahasiswa maupun masyarakat, sosialisasi dilakukan dengan metode ceramah dan diskusi tanya jawab. Materi awal yang kami berikan adalah menyadarkan kepada mahasiswa bahwa ada sisi gelap akuntansi yang perlu diungkap dan menjadi alasan untuk hijrah menuju akuntansi idealis. Akuntansi Syariah idealis menyesuaikan bentuk pada tempatnya, tidak bertujuan untuk meningkatkan asset ataupun memperoleh laba. Akuntansi syariah idealis banyak ditemui dalam kehidupan sehari-hari seperti akuntansi rumah tangga, akuntansi di bulan ramadhan dan akuntansi rumah sakit. Bidang tersebut perlu dipelajari oleh kita semua karena kita semua akan mengalaminya.

Advertising for Ozempic is inescapable. We have come to expect an advertisement for Ozempic around every corner. From scrolling social media to watching a hockey game, Ozempic is everywhere. This paper seeks to understand the multilayered and multimedia advertising campaigns, alongside lay-advertising on social media platforms that have allowed Ozempic and its producer Novo Nordisk to redefine and reframe the drug from its intended use as an insulin-producing type 2 diabetes medication to a widely sought-after weight loss medication. My analysis examines the role of social media in shaping consumer perceptions of Ozempic, the influence of direct-to-consumer advertising in promoting off-label uses, and the resulting consequences on drug accessibility and health perceptions. Specifically, by scrutinizing media portrayals on TikTok and direct-to-consumer advertising strategies, this paper unveils the dynamics of pharmaceutical product reframing and its effects on the dominant discourses surrounding said products. As Ozempic attempts to redefine what a healthy body should look like, it is imperative to analyze how social media and pharmaceutical advertising campaigns shift cultural understanding, reinforcing anti-fat narratives and limiting access to life-saving drugs for those who need them.
