AN EVALUATION OF ZIMBABWE NATIONAL INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT POLICY: IS ZIMBABWE ON COURSE TO ATTAIN UPPER MIDDLE INCOME ECONOMY BY 2030?
Authors: Bvirindi Jeremiah
Published: September 2021

Zimbabwe was the most industrialized country in sub-Saharan Africa with the exception of South Africa and was a major exporter of manufactured products to its neighbours. Confederation of Zimbabwe Industries (CZI) (2015) observed that by 2015, however, the country’s industrial sector had all but collapsed following years of economic problems that resulted in serious deindustrialization as factories closed and relocated to neighbouring countries and thousands of workers were thrown out of employment. In view of this calamity, the Government of Zimbabwe reviewed its industrial development policy 2012-2016 and launched 2019-2023 policy. The purpose of the evaluation was therefore to identify implementation gaps and inform future policy reviews, bearing in mind that the policy under review promised to propel Zimbabwe out of mess and grow the economy to a developmental state by 2030. The overall objective of this evaluation is to assess the effectiveness, efficiency, adequacy, administrative ease, equity, responsiveness and politically acceptability of the Industrial development policy. The evaluation utilised the qualitative approach because it is context-specific and provides flexibility and gives the evaluator the ability to conduct an in-depth evaluation on selected participants. The Delphi technique was used in this study. The Delphi technique is a group process used to survey and collect the opinions of experts on a particular subject. It is a method for structuring a group communication process so that the process is effective in allowing a group of individuals to deal with a complex problem. The overall findings from the expert drawn from the Tripartite Negotiating Forum (TNF) was that the policy objectives were noble but it faced serious implementation constraints due to country risk factors such as; Economic risk/unsustainable macro-economic variables, Commercial risk; (for example trading partners lacking confidence), Political risk ,thus the real or perceived mistrust and tolerance in expressing political views within a country that may give rise to political instability or apprehension by foreign governments in engaging freely with that country and social /cultural risk e.g. crime and moral decadence.

THE ANGEL OF HISTORY AND THE RUINS OF PARIS: WALTER BENJAMIN IN FRANCE OR THE PROGRESS AS CATASTROPHE
Authors: Fiedler Emma Barrett
Published: September 2021

If Walter Benjamin's writings have been mostly interpreted in the fields of art and literature critique, we would like here to take his philosophy of history more seriously, despite its acknowledged lack of unity (Habermas 1988: 32) and systematicity (Arendt 1960: 248). Drawing from the well-known allegory of the “Angel” developed in his theses on the concept of history written at the beginning of the Second World War and just before his death in Port-Bou, we will further analyze his genealogical critique of Parisian modernity contained in the Arcades Project, a work undertook more than a decade before, during his exile in France. In echo with the imagination of prospective ruins which florished during the modernization of the French capital after the 1850's, Benjamin's conception of progress, understood as a catastrophe submitting industrial capitalist societies to a permanent “state of emergency”, is thus combined with the theorization of a “Copernician revolution in the field of historical method” (Benjamin 1999: 348). Beyond Benjamin's phenomenological enterprise of a physiognomy of material modernity, and the romantic and surrealistic sensibility of his “anthropological materialism”, his philosophy of progress inscribes itself in a radical paradigm rendering its centrality to the idea of catastrophe (Anders 1972; Dupuy 2004; Stengers 2009), against the accidental role it holds in the principles of precaution and “responsibility” (Jonas 1979) and in the nowadays dominant paradigm of “risk” (Beck 1986); furthermore, “our” catastrophes would have in a Benjaminian perspective to be diagnosed in the past and the present rather than anticipated for the future.

Authors: Elsherbini Mohamed M , Badr Hatem , Kassem Mohamed , Khalil Amr Farid
Published: September 2021

Background: The purpose of this study is to follow the clinical course and required management of children suffering from Pseudotumor cerebri (PTC) secondary to Dural Sinus Thrombosis (DST) to understand the natural history of a rare condition and its need for surgery as well as outcome after Cerebro-Spinal Fluid (CSF) diversion surgeries.
Methods: A retrospective consecutive case series study based on examining medical records of patients who were referred to neurosurgical pediatric clinic  suffering from PTC secondary to DTS. Data review included patients’ archives for clinical, radiological, surgical records and follow up visits. Only patients below 18 years old were included.
Results: Fourteen patients met inclusion criteria, 7 of them required CSF diversion procedure, while the other 50% responded to medical conservative therapy. Headache improved immediately for most of the surgical group, while took 7 weeks to reach satisfactory results for medical group. Visual improvement took place for both groups approximately at the same time interval with average 5 weeks.
Conclusion: Surgical intervention in the form of CSF diversion procedure was required for 50 % of the patients, which is safe and effective line of treatment to prevent further deterioration of vision for case who were not responsive to medical therapy.
Imaging differentiation on extra-axial fluid collections: a clinical Image.
Authors: Gutierrez Pineda Felipe
Published: September 2021

A 3 month – old male patient with a history of seizures presents to the Pediatric neurosurgery department with his parents, on initial evaluation a head circumference of 47.5 cm (> percentile 99 on the WHO chart) was seen. A brain MRI was performed and an extra axial fluid collections      (Chronic subdural hematoma and benign external hydrocephalus) was diagnosed. His parents refer a normal delivery without any complication and the medical history and records denied any previous trauma.
A neurosurgical evacuation of the subdural hematoma was performed, and a complete improvement of his seizure was seen on 3 months follow up.
Benign external hydrocephalus (BEH) has been proposed as a risk factor for the presence of chronic subdural hematoma (SDH) in infants (1). The SDH formation in the presence of BEH has been reported to be a venous rupture either spontaneously or following minor trauma  from the  bridging veins traversing the subdural/subarachnoid space (Red arrow , image D ) that  are stretched with enlarged extra?axial collections (2).
Epidemiologically there are striking similarities between these entities (3) that can be differentiated by some MRI findings.The signs that help us in the differentiation are: the subarachnoid layer visible (yellow arrow  image B, showing a displaced subarachnoid layer downward by a fluid  between it and the dura) the absence of the cortical vein sign and the differential on fluid intensity on T1-T2 weighted images (Images A,B,C,D) (4). Surgery evacuation is necessary for the patients with chronic subdural hematoma associated with BEH and neurological signs of increased intracranial pressure like macrocrania, seizures and altered level of consciousness  (Image F , showing the subdural space without hematoma and the subarachnoid layer downward it ) (5).
La ciudad contemporánea: Identidad y patrimonio
Authors: Rocha Irving Samadhi Aguilar
Published: September 2021

Esta reflexión crítica de corte teórico-filosófica toma como objeto de estudio la ciudad y, más específicamente, la transformación que ha sufrido esta idea o conceptualización frente a las nuevas formas de vida, de organización y de control, potencializadas por el desarrollo de la tecnología y la colonización del pensamiento y la vida.

Los habitantes de los pueblos o espacios rurales sufren transformaciones en su estilo de vida con la expansión de la ciudad o mancha urbana, generando la aparición de las formas de vida modernas y tecnológicas que se desarrollan en estas y a las cuales se adaptan. Las prácticas de agricultura poco a poco son desplazadas por las nuevas tecnologías de la urbanización; junto con ello las costumbres y tradiciones se modificarán creando una combinación entre lo urbano y lo rural, poniendo sobre la mesa la discusión en torno a la identidad de los habitantes. Un ejemplo de esto es el poblado de Ocotepec, en el estado de Morelos, cuyo proceso de urbanización resulta más que evidente. Lo interesante de Ocotepec consiste en el hecho de que en el 2014 la UNESCO le otorgó al pueblo el reconocimiento como patrimonio inmaterial cultural por sus costumbres del Día de Muertos, y además de que es considerado pueblo indígena. Esto fue posible porque frente a la expansión de la ciudad y su urbanización se contempló dentro del discurso político de la UNESCO el proteger este patrimonio. De aquí que se vuelva fundamental abordar los temas de la identidad, el patrimonio y las ciudades contemporáneas, caracterizadas como “machas urbanas”, lo que abre la reflexión en torno a las dos categorías que nos permitirán aquí analizar éstas: se trata del lugar y del no lugar, de la mano de Marc Augé.

 

This philosophical reflection takes the city as the object of study and specifically the transformation of this idea or this concept before the new forms of life, of organization and control, increased by the technological development and the colonization of thought and life.

The inhabitants of a town suffer transformations in their lifestyle with the expansion of a city or an urban spraw, generating new modern and technological ways of life. The agriculture becomes replaced by new technological urbanization and also the ways and traditions change, creating a combination between the country and the urban that questions the identity of their population. As an example of this there is a country called Ocotepec in the state of Morelos, Mexico. The most interesting part of this town is that in 2014 the UNESCO granted Ocotepec the cultural heritage recognition because of the day of the dead, and that it is considered a native country. From this point on becomes fundamental the approach to the subjects of identity, heritage and contemporary cities, also named urban spraws, that open a new reflection in two categories: one being space and the other not space, following Marc Augé proposal.

30 años construyendo el régimen de seguridad informal paraguayo
Authors: Rojas Caballero José Antonio , Rojas Viñales Ana Teresa
Published: September 2021

En el 2019, Paraguay cumplió 30 años de transición democrática y, si bien, se reconocen avances en varios de los aspectos, aún persisten muchas falencias en la gestión del Estado, y dudas sobre la capacidad de garantizar, para todos sus ciudadanos, a través de bienes, servicios y regulaciones lo establecido en la Constitución Nacional (art. 6). Este artículo tiene la finalidad de contribuir al área de políticas sociales en el Paraguay, conceptualizando, en primer lugar, los Estados/Regímenes de Bienestar y el Estado Paraguayo como unidad de análisis, resaltando sus características históricas, las relaciones Sociedad-Mercado y Estado y el fuerte vínculo con el clientelismo político en su formación y expansión a partir de la mitad del S. XX, hasta nuestros días. En segundo lugar se revisan cómo estos conceptos desarrollados se materializan a través de las políticas sociales, sus características, principales estrategias, programas y proyectos emblemáticos implementados, y la evolución de la institucionalidad a lo largo de tres fases bien diferenciadas entre sí: a) el periodo correspondiente a los años 1989 al 2002, caracterizado por ser la fase inicial o incipiente de la intervención estatal en materia social; b) el segundo periodo del 2003 al 2013, inicio de los programas de lucha contra la pobreza, así como el afianzamiento de algunos programas/políticas universales y la expansión de los principales derechos sociales constitucionales; y c) el tercer periodo que corresponde a los años 2013 al 2018, cuando se da la ruptura y reconfiguración (tanto en lo conceptual como en lo programático-institucional) de la gestión estatal, en materia de políticas sociales.
La construcción social del mercado de la soja en Paraguay
Authors: Wesz Junior Valdemar João
Published: September 2021

En la literatura y en el imaginario social, el mercado de la soja aparece, de manera predominante, como un intercambio impersonal, basado en una racionalidad económica desprovista de convivencia y relaciones sociales. En una dirección opuesta, este artículo analiza la construcción social del mercado local de la soja en Paraguay, enfocándose en la relación establecida entre productores rurales y empresas. Además del uso de una literatura académica especializada, datos secundarios e información disponible en medios de comunicación, fue realizada una profunda investigación de campo en Paraguay, entre 2014 y 2020. Este artículo concluye que el precio y las condiciones del contrato son factores importantes en este mercado, pero la negociación entre productores y empresa está construida y sostenida por un conjunto de otros elementos arraigados en la vida social y comunitaria.
Do Teacher Questions Function as Assessment for Learning?
Authors: Darong Hieronimus Canggung , Niman Erna Mena
Published: September 2021

This study wants to challenge the robust idea of previous findings revealing that employing a particular question type would necessarily functions as Assessment for Learning (AfL). Besides, this study extends previous research focusing on typology and examines the syntactical forms of questioning in its practice.  To gather data, six Indonesian English teachers were observed and audio- recorded, thus, transcribed and analysed following the principle of Conversation Analysis (CA). Except referential type functioning as a teaching technique and a discourse marker choice to discursively extend the classroom talk, the result of analysis corroborates previous studies in that they provide diagnostic information from which a better further action was taken place as highlighted in the AfL. Yet, this might occur as questioning types are syntactically constructed following classroom discourse moves. Thus, the examination of questionings functioning as Assessment for Learning (AfL), aside from types, the syntactical form and classroom discourse moves are important to cope with.
Current trends in anticancer drug prototype in vitro pharmacology: bibliometric analysis 2019–2021
Authors: Ershov PV , Makarova AS
Published: September 2021

Identification of novel low molecular weight compounds with antitumor activity is the first important step towards the development of candidate drugs and a popular trend in in vitro pharmacology. The aim of the study was to assess the key trends and rank the scientific priorities in anticancer drug design using bibliometric analysis. The protocol involved using the panel of bibliographic databases (PubMed, Scopus, Cortellis) and analytical web-based tools PubChem, FACTA +, ClustVis, Reaxys, PathwayStudio and VOSviewer software to review a sample of 1657 papers issued 2020–2021.The work was also focused on 70 new promising basic structures and derivatives targeted at inhibiting both individual pro-tumor proteins and signaling cascades. It was found that serine-threonine protein kinases, receptor tyrosine kinases, DNA topoisomerases and tubulins as well as signaling pathways PI3K, mTOR, AKT1, STAT3, HIF-1a, and p53 account for up to 60% of the total structure of cellular targets for the design of anticancer drugs. The increasing scientific interest in innovative inhibitors of tumor-associated protein complexes, transcription factors and metabolic enzymes has been found. The compounds, which belong to heterocycles, glycosides, quinones and terpenes, were mentioned in 71% of papers as the basic structures for antitumor derivatives design. Papers, published in 2019, in which the compounds, such as lapachone, luteolin, quercetin, monastrol, and crisosplenol D are studied in the context of the design of new drug prototypes, have the highest citation rate. The systematic bibliometric approach involving the use of a panel of analytical resources makes it possible to assess R&D trends and scientific priorities in anticancer drug design, thus organically complementing the classic reviews in periodicals.
Preferences Offset Stressors in Determining Survivability
Authors:   Professor Emeritus, Kobe University, Ando Yoichi
Published: September 2021

Pure stress-based models of health predict that accumulated stresses promote illnesses that result in lower life expectancies. However, in mixed subjective preference models, effects of stress, seen as negative preference, can potentially be offset by achievement of positive personal preferences. According to mixed preference models, preventive medicine strategies for promoting health can operate either by alleviating stress or by enhancing subjective preferences. Over many decades we developed a theory and practice of rational, psychoacoustically-driven architectural acoustic design of concert halls.1-3 The theory incorporates both negative acoustic annoyance attributes (stressors, negative preferences) and positive ones. Using self-assessment surveys of 30 dialysis patients in Kobe, Japan, we used the methodology to assess the effects of subjective preferences on delaying onset of dialysis treatment (dialysis onset age, DOA). Hayashi’s multivariate regression method (I) for nonparametric data 5,8 was used to estimate effects of reported factors. Of these, six factors proved predictive of DOA (p-values): better or worse interpersonal relations (0.003), decades of full-time work (0.050), alcohol consumption (0.031) according to individual preference, present noisy home environment (0.090), other pollution (0.060), smoking (0.115). Other factors were either weakly- or un- correlated: hospitalizations, house moves, past hypertension, proteinuria, sex, pet ownership, presence of bad odors, past noise pollution. Preventative measures that enhance subjective preferences may thus delay the need for dialysis.
Implementación de la evaluación formativa por estudiantes de Pedagogía en Educación Física (Implementation of the formative evaluation by students of Pedagogy in Physical Education)
Authors: Vergara Tapia María , Flores Bastías Mónica , Illanes Aguilar Lucía , Poblete-Valderrama Felipe
Published: September 2021

La presente investigación se centra en el ámbito de la Formación Inicial Docente (FID) en Pedagogía en Educación Física (PEF). El objetivo es conocer la forma en que estudiantes en proceso de FID en PEF implementan la evaluación formativa en las clases que realizan en su práctica profesional. Se lleva a cabo mediante un enfoque cuantitativo, descriptivo, no experimental transversal, en donde se consideraron a 64 estudiantes de una institución de educación superior privada de Chile. El instrumento de recolección de información que se utilizó fue un guión de observación aplicado por parte de profesores supervisores de práctica profesional el cual considera las dimensiones de: a) Retroalimentación, b) Elaboración e implementación y c) Respuesta de los y las escolares. Los resultados verifican la aplicación de retroalimentación, apoyo diferenciado según lo requieren los y las escolares y tratamiento del error; pero no aplican en forma sistemática la autoevaluación ni la coevaluación, ni registro de lo realizado por los estudiantes en clases. Se puede concluir que si bien se incorpora la evaluación formativa en el desarrollo de la práctica profesional por parte de estudiantes en proceso de FID en PEF, estos no propician espacios de diálogo respecto al proceso evaluativo (autoevaluación y evaluación por pares). 
Abstract: This research focuses on the field of Initial Teacher Training (FID) in Pedagogy in Physical Education (PEF). The objective is to know the way in which students in the FID process at PEF implement the formative assessment in the classes they take in their professional practice. It is carried out through a quantitative, descriptive, non-experimental cross-sectional approach, where 64 students from a private higher education institution in Chile were considered. The information collection instrument that was used was an observation script applied by supervising professors of professional practice which considers the dimensions of: a) Feedback, b) Preparation and implementation and c) Response of the schoolchildren. The results verify the application of feedback, differentiated support as required by the schoolchildren and treatment of the error; but they do not apply in a systematic way self-evaluation or co-evaluation, nor record of what the students have done in class. It can be concluded that although formative evaluation is incorporated in the development of professional practice by students in the FID process in PEF, they do not provide spaces for dialogue regarding the evaluation process (self-evaluation and peer evaluation).
Consecuencias del COVID-19 en la desigualdad presupuestaria de los equipos de Primera División de LaLiga en España (Consequences of the COVID-19 on the budgetary inequality of the First Division teams of LaLiga in Spain)

Published: September 2021

En este trabajo analizamos los presupuestos de los equipos de fútbol de la Primera División de LaLiga en España durante las temporadas 2019-2020 y 2020-2021, es decir, antes y después del COVID-19. Se realiza una comparación mediante el Índice de Gini y la Curva de Lorenz, observándose la existencia de una gran desigualdad que ha disminuido un poco debido a las repercusiones económicas que ha tenido la pandemia (disminución de los ingresos de taquilla, gastos derivados de la prevención sanitaria, etc.). Esta disminución, haciendo un paralelismo en comparación con la desigualdad económica que existe entre países, y que es medida y publicada por el Banco Munidal a través del Índice de Gini, hace que, de un total de ciento cincuenta y seis países, LaLiga haya pasado de la tercera a la séptima posición. Una gran desigualdad, en cualquier caso, que tiene repercusiones deportivas tanto en el panorama nacional como en el internacional. 
Abstract. In this paper we analyze the budgets of LaLiga First Division football teams in Spain during the 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 season, it is said, before and after COVID-19. A comparison is made using the Gini Index and the Lorenz Curve, and it is observed that exists a great inequality that has decreased due to the economic repercussions of the pandemic (decrease in tickets office income, expenses derived from health prevention, etc.). This decrease, compared to the economic inequality that exist among countries, and that is measured and published by World Bank through the Gini Index, means that of a total of one hundred and fifty-six countries, LaLiga has gone from third to seventh position. A great inequality in any case, which has sporting repercussions both on the national and international scene.

Educación en valores por medio del deporte. Una perspectiva filosófica basada en Søren Kierkegaard (Values education through sport. A philosophical perspective based on Søren Kierkegaard)
Authors: Mujica Johnson Felipe Nicolás , Orellana Arduiz Nelly Del Carmen
Published: September 2021

Educar en valor es un desafío ético que la sociedad tiene para promover los derechos humanos universales. En este contexto, tanto la filosofía, la ciencia y la pedagogía han contribuido a desarrollar metodologías que contribuyan en la formación moral de la ciudadanía. Algunas de ellas siguen una vía intelectual o directa sobre el tema, las cuales se enfocan en la conciencia y comprensión de los valores. Otras metodologías siguen una vía indirecta o emocional, la cual se enfoca en la experiencia y concreción del valor. Esta última vía ha sido fundamentada por el filósofo danés Søren Kierkegaard, quien establece que la comunicación ética ha de ser, principalmente, una comunicación basada en la experiencia. Aquel argumento filosófico realza la importancia de las actividades prácticas para la educación moral, de modo que se concluye que el deporte es un medio propicio para tal finalidad pedagógica. 
Abstract: Value education is an ethical challenge for society to promote universal human rights. In this context, philosophy, science and pedagogy have all contributed to the development of methodologies that contribute to the moral formation of citizens. Some of them follow an intellectual or direct approach to the subject, which focuses on the awareness and understanding of values. Other methodologies follow an indirect or emotional route, which focuses on the experience and concreteness of the value. The latter way has been substantiated by the Danish philosopher Søren Kierkegaard, who states that ethical communication has to be primarily a communication based on experience. This philosophical argument emphasises the importance of practical activities for moral education, which leads to the conclusion that sport is a suitable medium for this pedagogical purpose.

Introduction: COVID-19 virus has become a highly contagious disease as pandemic in the current situation over the world. As a communicable disease, COVID-19 can be transmitted so rapidly from nurse to nurse, patient to nurse and nurse to other group of people. Health care workers should know knowledge about this communicable disease. This is why we have done this study. Methods: The cross sectional study was conducted in Sylhet Women’s Medical College Hospital, Sylhet, Bangladesh; from January to June 2021. Face to face data was collected. Data was collected by researcher themselves. Collected data were checked, coded and transferred into the SPSS V22.0 for analyzing data. Frequency, percentages, mean and t-test statistics were calculated. Results: Among the participants, the age mean of senior staff nurse and junior staff nurse is 24.34 year and 33.66 year. The result shows that among senior staff nurse 25.74% was male and 74.26% was female, on the other hand among junior staff nurse, there was 100% female and no male junior staff nurse in this study. Among 134 participants of SSN, 86.77% and 96.32% were answered “yes” against “COVID-19 is communicable disease” and “COVID-19 is virus” where among 64 participants of JSN, 59.38% and 89.06% were answered “yes” against same questions. In case of “Yes” result, SSN is answer better than JSN which is statistically significant (p value is 0.006366). Conclusion: There is comparably better knowledge about COVID-19 disease to SSN than JSN. Health care workers must gain knowledge about such pandemic disease. By gaining well knowledge; everybody can stop spreading infection of COVID-19 disease.

Authors: Z H M Nazmul Alam  , Ishrat Tahsin
Published: September 2021

Many targeted treatment methods have focused on SARS-CoV-2's spike protein, along with neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), which are recombinant proteins, may be employed as a kind of passive immunotherapy to reduce pathogenicity. While vaccines are still the best way to prevent COVID-19 infection, mAbs are an effective treatment for those who have already been infected, as well as having the potential to prevent infection in those who have already been exposed to SARS-CoV-2, which can be especially beneficial to certain high-risk groups. Due to the limited initial availability of these new treatments, it is essential to consider their larger potential and create methods for their optimal deployment in clinical practice. The objectives of this review is to answer the most commonly asked clinical questions from HCPs and patients about the target population, dose, interactions with other medicines and vaccines, duration of immunity, and variants.
Evaluating the Performance of E-government: Does Citizens’ Access to ICT Matter?
Authors: Abdulkareem Abdulrazaq Kayode , Mohd Ramli Razlini
Published: September 2021

Different studies have evaluated the success of e-government in developed and developing countries. However, many of these studies rely on the economic and conventional approaches to evaluate e-government like other ICT projects. Also, they do not consider citizens’ access to ICT in their studies. This study, therefore, examines the moderating effect of citizens’ access to ICT on the performance of e-government within the context of IS Success Model and public value theory. The public value of e-government represents the net benefits of e-government. Data were collected from 369 experienced e-government users through a range of selected e-government services. The results show that citizens’ access to ICT positively and significantly moderates the relationship between actual use and the public value of e-government. This finding implies that access to ICT will drive more use of e-government and increase the value of e-government services. Also, the quality dimensions affect the actual use and user satisfaction with e-government. The most significant effect was established in the relationship between service quality and the actual use of e-government. In essence, this study emphasized the efficacy of ICT access as a stimulating effect on creating public value through increased citizens’ use of e-government for interacting with the government. Ultimately, it prompts the government to improve ICT access for the citizens to use more e-government services.
Spiritual Well-being and Work Performance among Ground-level Employees: Unravelling the Connection
Authors: Yee Jeffrey Khong Loong , Smith Jonathan , Robinson Simon
Published: September 2021

Extant research shows that spiritual well-being and work performance are directly connected. The connection is theorised to be due to the alignment between what employees are spiritually inclined towards and what they do at work. However, research overemphasises the performative benefits of spiritual pursuits and privilege the leaders’ views. These developments, coupled with the prevalent use of quantitative methods, have resulted in one-sided and uncontextualised theorisations that constrict how workplace spirituality is investigated, understood, and converted into action. In response to these gaps, this paper investigates the experiences of ground-level employees to uncover stories of how spiritual well-being may be connected to their work performance. The study uses the qualitative paradigm and narrative inquiry as its methodology to uncover the diverse ways in which spiritual well-being and work outcomes are connected, including ones that diminish or are inconsequential to work performance. There is a need to re-examine accepted knowledge regarding the direct connection between spiritual well-being and work performance and the assumed compatibility of enacting spiritual inclinations in organisational settings. This paper calls for a more nuanced understanding of how spiritual well-being is experienced and the implications these experiences might have on the ground-level employees’ work performance. Even as research unravels this relationship further, prescriptions for practice ought to be qualified, contextualised, tentative, and customised for and by the ground-level employee.

This article focuses on dimensions of national ethos among educated youths in Malaysia by developing a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) model. The main objective is to evaluate national ethos dimensions and develop a CFA model of the national ethos formation. These objectives are achieved by applying four main dimensions to confirm the formation of national ethos: values, feelings and spirit, beliefs and identity dimensions. The study was conducted using a quantitative approach through survey techniques involving 431 students of Universiti Putra Malaysia, comprising 241 Malay and 190 Chinese youth groups. The data analysis used the SEM-AMOS approach to develop a CFA model of the national ethos. The results confirm national ethos of educated youth is formed through the four main dimensions measured. The CFA model has achieved a good level of compatibility based on the set indicators (CMIN = 600.947, DF = 115, CMIN / DF = 5.226, p = 0.000, SRMR = 0.0937, RMSEA = 0.099, CFI = 0.927 and PNFI = 0.771). This study implies a CFA model as a new approach in national ethos formation among educated youths in Malaysia. A future evaluation of a non-educated youth group should also be implemented to assure that this model becomes a holistic model.

Authors: Mohamed Mazidah , Abd Aziz Mohd Sallehhudin , Ismail Kemboja
Published: September 2021

This study aimed to investigate the practices of the AfL strategies and the stages of assessment in pedagogy by English language teachers in primary schools. In Phase I: the Quantitative Strand, the Assessment for Learning Audit Instrument (AfLAi) was distributed to a total of 89 primary schools in the Hulu Langat district. The AfLAi results determined the cut-off points and the divergent categories to be further investigated in Phase II: Qualitative Strand. The 244 respondents were clustered into two subset participants of four higher and four lower scorers in the AfLAi who were investigated via a semi-structured interview and/or observation. The results from the AfLAi cum the cut-off points were Mean=3.7 on QCD (SD=0.74), sharing LOSC (SD=0.79) and FB (SD=0.77), and mean=3.3 on PSA (SD=0.87). From Phase I, 15 divergent categories were selected. Phase II findings on the 115 recurring categories were divided into three profiles: the higher scorers (29 categories), the lower scorers (26 categories) and the consensus (60 categories). Consequently, the 15 divergent categories were explained in a joint display to observe the similarities and the differences of practised amongst the higher and the lower scorers in the AfLAi. The joint display affirmed that 11 categories were practiced similarly. The four differences were on the “Availability of LOs”, “Questioning strategies”, “Compliment with FB”, and “Pupils’ progress report/self-assess”. It indicated that regardless of their scores, the participants had contributed some practical approaches to the study framework, which were beneficial beyond disciplines and classroom situations.

Repensar la organización disciplinar en la universidad, una crítica aproximada desde el enfoque de la complejidad
Authors: Jáuregui Mercado Raúl
Published: September 2021

La crítica propuesta pone en cuestión a la organización del conocimiento en la universidad como institución creadora y re-creadora de conocimiento, buscan­do contextualizarla en el seno de la sociedad. Para ello se apela al enfoque de la complejidad, como una de alternativa a través de la cual se realiza una somera revisión retrospectiva de los principios que dieron lugar a la organización disciplinar formalizada en la estructura de la universidad. Se discute sus implicancias y sus limi­taciones para enfrentar los problemas que aún aquejan a la humanidad. A través de los principios asociados a la complejidad como son el principio sistémico, hologramático, retroaccional, recursivo, la auto organización, lo dialógico; y la reintroducción, se han ensayado algunas reflexiones ciertamente discutibles que pueden contribuir a aprovechar la potencia y acto de los saberes disciplinares en un intento de diálogo fecundo a través de mecanismos tipo interfases sinápticas. Las meditaciones ano­tadas sugieren que es posible intentar repensar la organización del conocimiento respetando las disciplinas, sugiriendo al mismo tiempo crear respuestas desde un plano filosófico, epistemológico y metodológico, que puedan responder a la comple­jidad de las realidades que se encuentran traslapadas, en cuyo laberinto también se encuentra la universidad.
