У раду ћемо се бавити учењем српског језика као страног у пољској средини. Циљ рада је да се покажу потешкоће на које пољски студенти Србистике наилазе у почетку уче- ња српског језика, а које се тичу мерења времена. Полазећи од математичке, тачније астро- номско-математичке поделе дана у српском и пољском језику, разматрамо лексиколошке, етимолошке и семантичке проблеме који су у вези са одговарајућом лексиком у српском и пољском језику. Анализа показује да пољским студентима Србистике, барем у почетку упознавања са језиком Срба, неке од временских јединица представљају озбиљан проблем. Ти проблеми у вези су, пре свега, са српским лексемама сат и час, којима у пољском језику одговара друга лексема, позната српском језику, али са другачијим временским значењем. Мање јединице – минут и секунд – не представљају већи проблем, осим што имају разли- чит граматички род у српском и пољском језику.

Едукативни потенцијал рачунара и интернета, односно вештачке интелигенције у служби лингвистичких и методичких парадигми у циљу повећања ефикасности учења (српског као) страног језика главни је задатак овог рада. На основу искуства и практичне примене савремених технологија на пољу образовне лингвистике, дескриптивном мето- дом у раду ће бити представљене позитивне стране примене великих језичких модела и дигиталних алата који се ослањају на те језичке моделе. Са друге стране, циљ је предочити и изазове који се налазе пред наставницима и студентима који се одлуче да (не) буду део реформе образовања. Једна од највећих предности коришћења вештачке интелигенције била би индивидуализација, а поред тога бенефити су велика уштеда времена, боља ефи- касност и квалитет наставе, виши ниво креативности и мотивације наставника и ученика. Изазови са којима се актери у образовном процесу могу суочити у будућности су неједнак положај развијених земаља и земаља у развоју, етичка и безбедносна питања, недовољно едукованог кадра, мањак систематичности и поузданости.

The purpose of this paper is to emphasise the important role of sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) in natural resource conservation. It suggests that SSCM can be achieved by practising sustainable sourcing, resource efficiency, and engaging all the stakeholders in the process. Sustainable sourcing refers to the acquisition of raw materials from environmentally sound and socially friendly sources. When it comes to resource efficiency, it refers to the optimal utilisation of materials and energy throughout the supply chain. It aims to minimise waste and reduce pollution. While the practise of SSCM is not free from economic costs, regulatory complexity, and lack of transparency, it can be achieved with innovative practices such as new technology and the better utilisation of the circular economy principles. The paper outlines the important roles that governments, enterprises and consumers play in the conservation of natural resources. Regulation, incentives, and informed consumers are the driving forces behind this practice. The paper concludes by presenting SSCM as a strategic move, which not only preserves the environment but also offers a competitive advantage in the marketplace.

By air pollution we usually mean the presence of a certain concentration of gaseous and particulate pollutants in the atmosphere. The presence of airborne pollutants in the atmosphere is continuously measured with the aim of protecting human health and the environment in general. Modeling the distribution process of air pollutants is an important tool in researching the impact of pollution on the natural environment. There are different approaches to modeling air pollution. The paper analyzes mathematical modeling where the distribution of air pollutants is found by solving the equation of advective diffusion by analytical and numerical methods. The results of these two procedures are compared with the results of measurements in the experiment, and based on certain parameters, it is determined which model gives more valid results. The parameters necessary for specific calculations are adopted from available literature data.

In recent decades, there has been a notable increase in environmental awareness among consumers. In response to this shift, many companies have pursued to present themselves as environmentally responsible. They have adopted sustainability-focused marketing strategies to highlight their eco-friendly practices and products. However, this trend has also given rise to concerns about greenwashing, where some companies exaggerate their commitment to sustainability without making substantial changes. However, numerous claims made in this context lack validity, giving rise to what is termed greenwashing. This paper examines whether greenwashing poses a significant threat to genuine sustainability efforts or if it is simply a deceptive marketing tactic aimed at manipulating consumer perceptions.

Published: November 2024

The relationship that capitalism establishes between the economy and nature is markedly contradictory. As a geomorphological agent, capitalism is the main sociohistorical cause of the ecological limit imposed on humanity’s survival. In recent decades, innovative theoretical approaches (Anthropocene, Capitalocene, Oikeios, etc.) have emerged alongside institutional programmatic initiatives within the international system (Sustainable Development, Agenda 2030, Green New Deal). However, the progressive deterioration of the environment continues. This text aims to critique all those theoretical positions and beliefs that promote changes in environmental protection strategies without altering capitalist production relations or questioning the power structures of the capitalist world-system, which are inherently hostile to nature.

Municipal solid waste management has long been a critical issue for governments worldwide. In recent decades, many countries have seen significant increases in waste generation due to population growth, rapid urbanization, changing lifestyles, and heightened commercial and industrial development. Improper waste management can lead to the leaching of hazardous pollutants, contaminating both ground and surface waters, which can result in environmental harm and adverse health effects for living organisms. This research was conducted through three sampling campaigns in 2022 at a municipal solid waste landfill in Serbia. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis quantified bisphenol A, diisobutyl phthalate, di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, and butylbenzyl phthalate, and projected concentrations in living organisms were calculated using the bioaccumulation factor derived from literature reviews. This study provides a comprehensive overview of the potential effects of these pollutants on both aquatic and terrestrial animals. The aim of this assessment is to initiate discussions on new research directions arising from these findings, highlighting the need for further studies to fully understand the negative impacts of inadequate waste management on human health.

Sanat, insan duygularının ve düşüncelerinin derin bir ifadesi olarak uzun süredir var olmuş, zamanı aşmış ve çeşitli dönemler boyunca evrim geçirmiştir. Sanatsal ifadenin amacı, araçların ve yöntemlerin dönüşümüne rağmen değişmez kalmıştır. Sanatsal ifade, Rönesans döneminde olduğu gibi sanatçıların farklı disiplinlerde de uzmanlaşmasıyla daha da güçlenmiştir. Ressam olan sanatçı aynı zamanda heykel ve beste yaparken, yirminci yüzyılda müzisyen resim yapmış, yirmi birinci yüzyılda ressam müziğin resmini yapmış ya da uyku deneyimlerini ve rüyalarını resmedebilmişlerdir. Farklı disiplinlerin biraraya geldiği deneysel çalışmalarla sanatçılar sanat pratiklerinde özgürlük alanlarının çeşitlenmesine vesile olmuşlardır. Sinema tam da bu noktada sanatçılara uçsuz bucaksız bir çalışma alanı oluşturmuştur. Kurgunun gücüyle iki görüntü arasındaki anlamsal ilişkinin izleyiciye çok hızlı ulaştığı keşfedilmiş ve görüntülerin arka arkaya sıralanışı sırasında iletilmek istenen anlamsal ifade diyologla birlikte izleyici üzerinde çok daha etkili olmuştur. Bu araştırmanın amacı, sinema sanatında ressamların katkısını Auteur Teori’ye bakışla Jean-Luc Godard ve 1964 yapımı ‘Çete’ (Bande a Part) filmi ile anlatmak ve Jacques-Louis David’in ‘Horasların Yemini’ isimli eser incelemesi ile metinlerarasılık bağlamında karşılaştırma yapmaktır. Bu çalışma, farklı dönemlerden ve sanatsal disiplinlerden olan bu iki farklı eserin, her bir sanatçının duygularını ve fikirlerini aynı yaratıcı alan içinde iletmek için kullandığı benzersiz sanatsal dilin çözümlenmesine yönelik bir inceleme sunar. Jean-Luc Godard ve Jacques-Louis David'ın eserleri arasındaki konu bakımından görünen farklılığa rağmen, Fransız kültürüne dayanan ortak bir sanatsal perspektif ikisini bir araya getirmektedir. Jean-Luc Godard ve Jaques-Louis David'’e ait her iki eser, içerdikleri konuyla karşıtlık oluşturmakla birlikte sanatçıların Fransız kültürüne sanatsal bakışları ortaktır. Bu kapsamda David’in Horasların Yemini eseri ile Godard’ın Çete (Bande a Part, 1964) filmi içerisindeki kısa sekans dahilinde görmemizi istediği metinlerarasılık betimsel analizle ortaya konulmuş ve alanında özgün bir çalışma yapılmıştır.

Authors: Apriliyanti Retno , Nurhayati Susi
Published: November 2024

Recognizing the target level of teaching competency is crucial; matching the level of proficiency of students with teaching style will make the learning goal evident. As noted in mandatory competency in learning goals, nursing curriculum demands communication competency, and English has become a worldwide requirement for cross-national language, which will play a role as a supplementary skill for nursing students to graduate. The purpose of this study was to examine how Indonesian nursing students portrayed their English self-concept in relation to their English speaking competence. The sample size is 93 nursing students, and the study methodology is a relationship with convenience or accidental sampling procedures. Marsh, Parker, and Smith (1992) created the Self-description assessment II scale that was used to gather data. According to bivariate study, English self-concept is unrelated to English speaking performance. The r-correlation was larger than 0.05, suggesting that no meaningful relationship exists between the two variables. The average English self-concept score is 82.50, but the average speaking English performance score is 2.44. More cues are needed for EFL students to improve their speaking by managing their English self-concept as a means to create a speaking English environment; this situation should be generated at all educational levels

Notaries, as public officials regulated by the Notary Law (UUJN) and the Amendment of Notary Law (UUJN-P), play a crucial role in the creation of authentic documents and have the authority to guarantee the legality of legal acts. However, the cancellation of document copies by the court raises significant legal implications for the status of notarial minutes, which need to be further analyzed to establish legal certainty in notarial practices in Indonesia. This research aims to provide a deeper understanding of the legal status of notarial minutes after their copies are canceled, as well as to offer recommendations regarding necessary regulations to create legal certainty in notarial practices in Indonesia. This study employs a normative or doctrinal research methodology with a normative legal approach to examine the relevant legal principles and written regulations concerning the legal implications of the cancellation of document copies on notarial minutes. It utilizes primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials as sources, along with data collection techniques through literature studies and document analysis. The findings of this research indicate that the cancellation of document copies by the court renders the notarial minutes as informal documents or null and void due to the failure to meet legal requirements. Parties who disagree can file a lawsuit in court; notaries who do not withdraw the minutes risk becoming involved in legal issues and may be held civilly liable if found to have acted unlawfully, while criminal penalties may apply if false information is present in the documents.

Authors:   PhD candidate in Sociology, Sakarya University, Turkey, Akbarpouran Sepideh
Published: November 2024

This article examines the roots and educational policies of Iran during the first Pahlavi era (1925-1941). During this period, Reza Shah initiated serious efforts to modernize and centralize public education, aiming to create a strong, unified central government through educational and cultural policies that emphasized the Persian language and limited linguistic diversity. Schools were mandated to use standardized textbooks approved by the Ministry of Education, and non-Persian languages were restricted. Similarly, ethnic and religious minority schools faced pressure to adopt Persian as the language of instruction. These policies, with a nationalist focus on Aryan identity, aimed at cultural homogenization. The article also notes that these policies and educational structures have persisted beyond the 1979 revolution and continue to influence Iranâ€™s educational system today.

The aim of this research to identify a model of “krama desa” (indigenous villagers) adherence to their awig-awig, which is still spoken (unwritten). This research examines why there was no attempt to put it in written law and why indigenous people obeyed the rules even though there was no written law. Penelitian dilakukan di desa adat tipe baliaga (tidak mendapat pengaruh dari kerajaan Majapahit dengan tata pemerintahan masyarakatya menggunakan pola ulu apad). The research was conducted in a baliaga-type customary village (uninfluenced by the Majapahit kingdom with community governance using the ulu apad pattern). This research is empirical legal research and primary data was collected with interview techniques. Based on the results of the research, it can be stated that the reason awig-awig is still maintained in unwritten form even though local regulations mandate that it be made in writing is that the ‘krama desa’ has never questioned it and from the past they have respected and obeyed it for generations without anyone daring to violate it. The village community respects and obeys awig-awig even though it is unwritten and is highly dependent on traditional leaders. When violating awig-awig, there is a psychological burden, namely kimud (shame for violating) because the consequences are stigmatized by the community.

Published: November 2024

Coffee soils have a low availability of phosphorus, the use of phosphate-solubilizing Trichoderma strains is a promising sustainable strategy for the management of phosphorus deficiencies. In this study in Mexico, we evaluated 10 strains of Trichoderma from the andosol soil of coffee plantations in Mexico and their capacity for phosphate solubilization in vitro, and their impact on the growth of coffee seedlings of three varieties (Anacafé, Costa Rica and Marsellesa) were evaluated. The tested microorganisms showed high phosphorus solubilization, the phosphorus solubilization ranged between 2.41 and 7.40 mg.mL-1. The maximum phosphate solubilizing activity was observed using two strains of Trichoderma harzianum 75.73 (Th53) and 74.62 mg.mL-1 (Th48) for calcium phosphate (Ca2PO4) and three strains of T. asperellum 22.99 (Th57), 22.90 (Th49) and 21.55 mg.mL-1 (Th40) for aluminum phosphate (AlPO4). In both calcium (Ca2PO4) and aluminum phosphate (AlPO4), a decrease in the pH of the medium was detected, from 4.81 to 3.73 and from 3.38 to 2.75, respectively. In the Anacafé variety, the application of two strains of T. harzianum (Th48 and Th53) favored greater availability of phosphorus in the substrate, while in the Costa Rica and Marsellesa varieties the available phosphorus of the substrate was greater with T. harzianum (Th48). Inoculation with these Trichoderma strains is potentially important for the solubilization of insoluble phosphorus and the development of coffee plants.

Published: November 2024

O etanol de segunda geração (2G) é um combustível alternativo que ajuda a acelerar a transição dos combustíveis fósseis para fontes de energia mais sustentáveis, de baixo impacto e economicamente viáveis. Sua produção consiste em quatro hidrólise enzimática, etapas principais: pré-tratamento, fermentação e destilação. Muitos resíduos agrícolas podem ser processados para serem convertidos em etanol 2G. Mais de 300 milhões de toneladas de soja são produzidas em todo o mundo, gerando milhões de toneladas de casca de soja. Este trabalho teve como objetivo produzir enzimas lignocelulósicas on-site, utilizando bagaço de cana-de- açúcar, casca de soja e farelo de trigo para o cultivo de Aspergillus sydowii, Chrysoporthe cubensis, Hypoxylon sp., Kretzschmaria zonata e Talaromyces pinophilus por fermentação semissólida. Os coquetéis enzimáticos de fungos foram aplicados para hidrolisar casca de soja após os pré-tratamentos hidrotérmico, ácido (H2SO4 0,5 %) e alcalino (NaOH 1,0 %), com foco na liberação de açúcares fermentescíveis para produção de etanol. Após análises de composição química e hidrólise enzimática com o coquetel comercial Cellic® CTec3 HS (Novozymes), o pré-tratamento ácido teve maior impacto na liberação de glicose e xilose, com 13,7 e 7,10 g/L, respectivamente. O perfil enzimático dos 5 fungos cultivados nas diferentes biomassas foi avaliado e destacaram se os extratos de A. sydowii, C. cubensis e T. pinophilus cultivados em casca de soja, bem como de C. cubensis cultivado em farelo de trigo. Quando a etapa de hidrólise enzimática foi realizada em casca de soja pré-tratada com ácido, os extratos de casca de soja C. cubensis e T. pinophilus demonstraram os melhores resultados, convertendo 9,55 e 13,21 % da celulose em glicose. Porém, quando combinados, nas mesmas condições e carga enzimática (2,5 unidades FPase), a taxa de conversão de celulose em glicose aumentou para 36,35 %, mostrando grande potencial como extratos nativos com baixo uso de enzimas. Além disso, ensaios de fermentação foram conduzidos na casca de soja pré-tratada com ácido, hidrolisada pela mistura dos extratos de C. cubensis e T. pinophilus crescidos em casca de soja, e Saccharomyces cerevisiae Innova® Force ADY foi capaz de se adaptar ao meio complexo e gerar 2,03 g/L de etanol, que representa 66,34 % de conversão da glicose em etanol.

Après les travaux de Jacques Ellul et d’autres auteurs, une réflexion de fond sur le thème du travail est attendue aujourd’hui, afin notamment de penser le sens et les limites du travail.
Travail et attention dans la philosophie de Simone Weil
Authors: Gillouard Pierre
Published: November 2024

L’article s’attache, dans son ensemble, à démontrer en quoi l’attention – la faculté de faire le vide dans sa pensée pour accueillir pleinement en soi l’objet ou l’être auquel on prête attention – est la vertu essentielle du travail pour Simone Weil. Plus précisément, il démontre le lien de corrélation entre la pratique de l’attention discursive – celle qui s’exerce dans le raisonnement – et la pratique de l’attention intuitive – celle qui s’exerce dans l’attention à autrui qui est ici rapprochée du travail du care. L’article expose alors quelles peuvent être les conditions de travail, pour Simone Weil, qui permettraient de développer une telle attention aux autres.

High school students and fresh graduates searching for employment often lack the confidence to create competitive application documents due to their limited work experience. This community service program, conducted at Transmart Mall Tasikmalaya, aimed to enhance the skills of high school students and fresh graduates in creating digital portfolios. The goal was to boost their confidence in job applications, increase their competitiveness in securing careers that align with their aspirations, and ultimately reduce unemployment rates. The program utilized a participatory method through seminars and workshops. Participants were taught the importance of creating portfolios that attract recruiters' attention and were guided to create their own portfolios using the CakeResume platform. Evaluation was conducted through pre and post training questionnaires distributed via Google Forms sent through the workshop group. The results showed a significant increase in participants' understanding of the importance of portfolios, an improvement in their confidence in creating digital portfolios, and high satisfaction with the community service workshop. Moreover, the participatory approach used in this program was effective in achieving the set objectives, particularly in enhancing participants' employability. The program's implications for local industries and companies include providing practical insights and valuable networking opportunities for participants.

This study aims to analyze the effect of transformational leadership on readiness for change, with work engagement as a mediating variable among employees at the Airport Management Unit (UPBU) in East Kalimantan. Using a quantitative approach and Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) method, data were collected from 175 UPBU employees through structured questionnaires. The results show that transformational leadership has a positive and significant effect on work engagement, which in turn also has a positive and significant effect on readiness for change. Additionally, work engagement partially mediates the relationship between transformational leadership and readiness for change, indicating that transformational leaders can enhance readiness for change by increasing employee work engagement. These findings are consistent with previous theories and research showing that transformational leadership styles can enhance employee motivation and emotional engagement as well as their readiness to face change. The practical implications of this study suggest that organizations, particularly in the aviation sector, should adopt transformational leadership styles to increase work engagement and readiness for change among employees. This study also identifies several limitations, including its cross-sectional design and focus on a single industry sector, which should be considered for further research. Future studies are recommended to use longitudinal designs and expand research to various industry sectors and geographical areas.
Evaluating Capital Structure Dynamics During Financial Crises: Insights from Shariah Compliant Companies Using Python Pandas
Authors: Azhari Nor Khadijah Mohd , Yildiz Birol
Published: November 2024

Shariah Compliant Companies (SCC) have gained significant prominence and preference among investors recently. Several key factors influence investor decisions to commit their funds to these companies, including profitability, leverage, and capital structure. Analyzing a company’s capital structure allows stakeholders and potential investors to gauge and predict its financial health. However, the capital structures of SCCs differ from those of non-Shariah compliant companies (NSCCs), financial institutions, and small and medium enterprises (SMEs) due to their distinct characteristics and features. This paper explores the impact of capital structure during periods of financial crisis. It focuses on two main aspects: first, the study will analyze SCCs from five Southeast Asian countries as a sample, and second, it will employ a novel methodology using Python Pandas programming for data analysis. Additionally, the research seeks to determine the differences in capital structures between SCCs and NSCCs, along with the underlying reasons for these differences. The data for this study will be sourced from DataStream, published by Thomson Reuters Eikon, covering the period from 2005 to 2012. The results demonstrate that the capital structures of SCCs and NSCCs are markedly different. Furthermore, during financial crises, SCCs exhibit greater resilience, attributed to their unique features and financial benchmarks.

The full implementation of the Results-based Performance Management System (RPMS) in the Philippines has significantly heightened the motivation among Department of Education (DepEd) employees to achieve high-quality school performance for 21st-century students. This study sought to uncover the most effective leadership styles and techniques contributing to high performance by examining the insights, experiences, and factors shared by successful secondary school administrators. Using a descriptive-qualitative methodology (DQM) based on the Appreciative Inquiry (AI) 4-D cycle, the study evaluated five purposefully selected secondary schools in Region IV-A CALABARZON. Relevant data were acquired using structured interviews, focus group discussions, on-site observations, and document analysis. Thematic analysis was used, which included data familiarization, coding, and theme development. The study found that high-performing schools excelled in financial stewardship, process efficiency, leadership, and learning and growth. Key contributing factors include assertive leadership styles, innovation, explicit direction, and humane approaches; high-point experiences such as shared responsibility, community responsiveness, passion for teaching, and specialized curricula; and alternative and innovative techniques. The schools’ best practices were determined to be important in promoting learners’ holistic development, with both mental and physical well-being.
