Authors: Komurcu Ozgur , Cecen Yavuz , Pehlivanlar Mehtap , Ulger Fatma , Sarihasan Binnur
Published: August 2022

Hemodynamic instability may cause serious complications such as intracranial hemorrhage, stroke, and brain edema in the postoperative period in intracranial tumor surgery. This study investigated the relationship between remifentanil infusion used for anesthesia maintenance in intracranial tumor surgery and postoperative early hypertension. Hemodynamic parameters were recorded in the first 24 hours after intracranial tumor surgery in the postoperative intensive care unit. Hypertension rate, causes, and treatment methods of hypertension in our clinic were compared with the literature. The study included 113 patients. In 83 patients (73.4%), hypertension was detected in the first 24-hour period during the intensive care follow-up. The hypertensive attack was controlled with intravenous opioids administered in 69 (83.1%) of 83 patients with hypertension, and with additional intravenous antihypertensive in 14 (16.9%) patients. Analgesia use was higher in hypertensive patients in the first 24 hours postoperatively (83.1% vs. 30%, P<.01). Ultra-short-acting remifentanil infusion used for maintenance of anesthesia may cause hypertensive episodes in the early postoperative period.
A qualitative study on perceptions of COVID-19 vaccine among health care worker in a rural area of West Bengal, India
Authors: Manna Nirmalya , Mukherjee Ria , Bhattacharya Parthasarathi , Das Adwitiya , Das Pushpak
Published: August 2022

Background: COVID vaccines have been rolled out all over the world after emergency use authorization in the prevailing pandemic situation. However, hesitancy about its safety and efficacy exists among beneficiaries. Vaccine hesitancy can be a barrier to adequate immunization coverage.

Aims and Objectives: This qualitative study was undertaken among health care workers in the rural field practice area of a tertiary care hospital, to find out their perceptions about COVID vaccines, and reasons behind hesitancy toward the same.

Materials and Methods: Six focused group discussions (FGD) were held with the help of moderator. Each FGD had five members, so 30 members were included in the study. Health care workers included doctors, nurses, ANM/ASHAs, and other health care workers.

Results: There were 17 males and 13 females. Doctors had a positive attitude toward vaccination, but other health care workers had mixed perception regarding vaccination. Most grass root level workers were sceptical about the efficacy of the vaccine.

Conclusion: Mostly positive attitude toward COVID vaccines was observed in the present study. Hesitancy toward vaccines was observed in some health care workers, and it likely rooted from their inadequate knowledge about the vaccine.
İbn Kemâl’in Yaratıcıyla İlgili Mûcib Bizzât ve Fâil-i Muhtâr Tasavvurları Karşısındaki Konumu
Authors: TEKİN Özkan
Published: August 2022

Bu makalede, İbn Kemâl açısından Allah’ın, felsefi tabiriyle vâcibü’l-vücûd’un, mûcib bizzâtmı yoksa fâil-i muhtâr mı olduğu incelenmiştir. Mûcib bizzât ve fâil-i muhtâr anlayışları, varlık ve yetkinlik kaynağı olarak Allah’ın âlemle ilişkisinde nasıl değerlendirileceğine ilişkin tartışmalarda ortaya çıkan başlıca iki teoriyi betimler.

İbn Kemâl meseleyi incelerken mûcib bizzâtın iki farklı anlamını göz önünde bulundurur. Mûcib bizzâtın ilk anlamı, Allah’ın âlemi mecburen meydana getirdiği şeklinde yorumlanır. Buna göre Allah fiilde bulunmamaya kadir değildir ve fiilde bulunmaması onun hakkında söz konusu olamaz. Mûcib bizzâtın ikinci anlamına göre, Allah’ın fiilde bulunması, doğal nesnelerde olduğu gibi mecburi olarak gerçekleşmez. O, fiilde bulunmaya olduğu kadar fiilde bulunmamaya da kadirdir. Ancak Allah, fiilde bulunmayı hiçbir şekilde terk etmez. Sürekli fiilde bulunması zatının değil, hikmetinin gereğidir. Buna göre Allah’ın varlık vermemesi hikmete aykırıdır. Allah’tan hikmete aykırı bir şeyin sadır olması söz konusu değildir.

İbn Kemâl’e göre filozoflar, mûcib bizzâtla Allah tasavvurunda eksikliğe yol açacak birinci anlamı değil, ikinci anlamı kastetmektedirler. İbn Kemâl böyle düşünmekle mûcib bizzât teorisinin Allah’ı doğal cisimlerde olduğu gibi fiilde bulunmaya mecbur bırakan bir anlayış doğurmadığını savunmuş ve bu bakımdan Hocazâde’ye katılmış olur. Öte yandan Allah’ın zatı gereği fiilde bulunmadığını ve sahip olduğu kudretin aynı zamanda fiilde bulunmamaya imkân verdiğini düşünmesiyle Hocazâde’den ayrılmıştır. İbn Kemâl’in İslam düşüncesinde mûcib bizzât-fâil-i muhtâr ihtilafına yönelik başarılı bir uzlaştırma önerisi sunduğu görülmektedir.
Mustafa Naîma Efendi’nin Tȃrih-i Naȋma Bağlamında Tarihçiliği

Published: August 2022

Tarih, geçmişte yaşanan olayları inceleyen bir bilim dalı olup, tarih yazıcılığı ise yine geçmişte yaşanan olayların tarihçiler vasıtayla yazıya geçirilerek gelecek nesillere aktarılmasıdır. Osmanlı Devleti’nin tarihçilik anlayışı kendinden önceki Türk-İslam devletlerinin mirası üzerine inşa edilmiş olsa da zamanla kendine özgü bir yapıya bürünmüştür. Bu çerçevede devletin ilerleyen dönemlerinde tarih yazımı faaliyetleri önem kazanmış ve vak’anüvislik adıyla resmȋ devlet görevi olarak ortaya çıkmıştır. Çalışmamızın konusunu teşkil eden Mustafa Naȋmâ Efendi; 1655 yılında Halep’te doğmuş, 17. yüzyıl Osmanlı döneminde yaşayan meşhur vak’anüvislerden birisidir. O, ilk vak’anüvis olarak kaleme aldığı Ravzatü’l-Hüseyn fȋ hulâsati ahbâri’l-hâfikayn isimli eseriyle Osmanlı tarihçiliğinde, birçok yönden diğer Osmanlı tarih yazıcılarından ayrılmaktadır. Bu yönüyle müellif ve eserinden her dönemde çokça istifade edilmiştir. Bu çalışmamızda Mustafa Naȋmâ Efendi’nin kısaca hayatı, eseri, söz konusu eseri bağlamında tarihçiliği ve tarih alanına kattığı yenilikleri kısaca değerlendirmeye çalışacağız.
A Comparison of Kātib Çelebī and Edward Bernard's Education, Works and Mental Backgrounds
Authors: ÇELİK Murat
Published: August 2022

The comparison of Ottoman and European history can be viewed as a novel approach in historical studies. Therefore, this study adopted such an approach by focusing on two important figures of the Ottoman and British intellectual life. These two people, who are often known for their catalogue and bibliographic works, were studied with respect to their intellectual skills, educational and intellectual backgrounds. The study focused on similarities and differences, and efforts were made to uncover the reasons lying behind them. This is because, being leading figures in their own cultural contexts, Kātib Çelebī and Ed-ward Bernard are intellectuals of the Ottoman Classical Period and of the Renaissance, respectively. This study basically aimed to compare and contrast Kātib Çelebī [d. 1067/1657] and Edward Bernard [d. 1697] in terms of their educational background, studies, and mental background. It addressed how both scholars were brought up, what kind of works they produced besides why and how they produced them. Further-more, based on the data from this comparison, the study also investigated if Kātib Çelebī could be consid-ered as a Renaissance intellectual. The reader's attention was drawn to the characteristics of the period, and an overall description of a typical intellectual in the seventeenth century was provided. Thus, this was intended to paint a global picture of the mentality of the period. Therefore, it was shown that alter-native perspectives are also possible when it comes to Ottoman and European history.

Word Made Book A Semantic and Historical Study of the Supra-Rationality of the Qur'ān as Transmitted in the Medium of Revelation within the Metaphysical Sociology of Arabia
Authors: WAQAS Syed
Published: August 2022

This article argues that the Qur'ān seeks to place its modality of revelation within the oracle of Arabia and recognizes it as a valid “form” of revelation. It inducts its medium of revelation within the familiar apparatus of the pagan divination institution by tapping into the realm of supra-rationality while, simultaneously, making a radical shift at the doctrinal level. The Qur'ānic oracle speaks for one universal God as opposed to a tribal deity, pantheon of gods, or an anthropomorphized divinity that partakes of humanity. The article seeks to work with the core Islamic concept of revelation in dialogue with the notion of the Word of God in a semantic slash historical context. The inquiry glances at the historical presentation of what Islam warrants as a rationale of revelation by maintaining a propositional and qualitative distinction from the pagan oracle. It projects the dialectics of quality versus quantity and principle versus form rather than undertaking a complete break with the existing metaphysical and epistemological cosmos. Such a claim of external guidance, from the above, as laid by all three Semitic religions is, inherently, based upon, and rooted within the source of a higher realm attributed to the divinity. Islam’s hierarchy of being and non-being revolves around an essential Being, the one true God, as a theological necessity, whereas all contingency, the creation including mankind, is granted existence in the sanctuary of the divine will that takes place through God’s grace. The will of God, Logos, defines the relationship between the necessity and the contingency in the self-consciousness of the Qur'ān.

Civic Dialogue: Attending to Locality and Recovering Monologue
Authors: C. Arnett Ronald
Published: August 2022

This essay examines civic dialogue that is connected to local roots. The conceptual emphasis suggests that locality often houses what one might term monologic tendencies. The conviction of this essay is that without acknowledgment and understanding of what matters to another, that is, of the importance of monologue, the possibility of maintaining a vital public sphere that is open to a multiplicity of ideas and positions is minimal. In this essay, the term monologue is not to be confused with a particular style of communication, but IS the ground of the conviction that one takes into a given discourse. Monologue houses the ground of the conviction that shapes what we seek to protect and promote in a given communicative exchange. Monologue is the creative engine of conviction that shapes the uniqueness of our participation and contribution to any potential dialogic interaction.2 To illustrate this point, I turn to the Scottish Enlightenment and the insights of Adam Ferguson as he wrote them in An Essay on the History of Civil Society. The essay explicates a series of implications that arise from Ferguson’s work and have relevancy to an understanding of civic dialogue that accounts for the local. Ferguson’s distinct contribution was his refusal to dismiss the monologic sentiments of places of particularity.
Problematizing Whiteness: A Woman of Color and a White Woman Discuss Race and Research
Authors: Davis Shametrice , Linder Chris
Published: August 2022

In this paper, we engage in reflexivity to explore our experiences with race and research. Employing critical race theory as a framework, we engage in a dialogue about the risks and benefits of White scholars exploring race in higher education research. Through this conversation, we attempt to problematize the use of CRT by White scholars and provide a framework for scholars to consider when engaging in research related to race. Further, we intend to model the difficult dialogues in which White women and women of Color must engage to support each other as scholars in higher education.
A Critique of Dialogue in Philosophical Hermeneutics
Authors: Kögler Hans-Herbert
Published: August 2022

The idea of dialogue occupies arguably the most central position in Hans-Georg Gadamer’s philosophical hermeneutics (Gadamer 1960/1989). Dialogue is here not understood merely as the conversation between two subjects about something of common interest in a shared medium of understanding, but rather as the foundational phenomenon within which objects and themes, subjects and perspectives, and common interest and shared understanding are grounded. The foundational character of dialogue derives from the fact that all experience is understood to be linguistically mediated, while language as a medium exists in its true and essential form as dialogue. The strongest support for this approach comes from a phenomenological perspective on understanding, i.e. on what really happens when we understand something, when we make sense of something by interpreting it. Bringing together the encompassing and foundational role of dialogue with its concrete origin in the act of interpretation will yield, as I will show, a post- metaphysical concept of understanding as dialogue. Gadamer’s own philosophical-hermeneutic conception of dialogue both suggests and yet misses its full articulation, as our analysis of the idea of dialogue in philosophical hermeneutics, the question of the metaphysical grounds of understanding in language, and the issue of the epistemological significance of dialogue will show.
Integrity and Dialogue
Authors: Robinson Simon
Published: August 2022

This paper explores the relationship of dialogue to integrity. It sets out a traditional philosophical view of integrity, noting that these are predominantly assertive, holding certain principles or values against others, and therefore they do not involve dialogue. Based on more recent views on integrity, which stress agency, the paper then develops a view of integrity based on a three- fold view of responsibility. This view is based on dialogue, and with that a greater engagement with plural values and a complex social environment. The paper looks at the nature of that dialogue, and then goes on to examine implications for the practice and theory of dialogue itself. The paper uses illustrations from the Mid Staffs Hospital Trust case and from fiction, with the example of Shakespeare’s Henry V.

Bohmian Dialogue: a Critical Retrospective of Bohm’s Approach to Dialogue as a Practice of Collective Communication
Authors: Gunnlaugson Olen
Published: August 2022

In this chapter, I will offer both an appreciative and critical examination of David Bohm’s vision and practice of dialogue and how it relates to the field of dialogue studies. Bohm’s conception of dialogue was ground-breaking in its time due to its emphasis on consciousness and unfolding a fundamentally different order of communication mediated by collective awareness and insight into the nature of thought and the dialogue process as a whole. Bohm’s conception and process aspired to bring the human project of sharing meaning, values and learning forward by introducing practices or ways of being with the dialogue process that interrupted conventional practice at that time. In this paper, I examine key contributions of Bohm’s work as well as a number of critiques and limitations of the practice. Finally, I comment briefly on the feasibility of Bohm’s practice as a transformative approach to dialogue.
Desecuritisation through Hermeneutic Dialogue: the Gülen Movement in Turkey

Philosophy, Ethics and Dialogue
Authors: Klempner Geoffrey
Published: August 2022

Here, I examine the nature of ethical dialogue from the point of view of its foundations in the critique of the dominant, disinterested conception of ethics, relating this to my 20 year experience corresponding with students taking courses with Pathways to Philosophy, including a prisoner on Death Row, Texas, USA. Ethical dialogue, where we seek the best outcome by our collective lights, is contrasted with activity in the business arena, where traders are assumed to be acting from purely self-interested motives. The role of philosophy as an activity of seeking, in the words of the metaphysician F.H. Bradley, ‘bad reasons for what we believe on instinct’ is examined from the point of view of our practical interest in learning how to engage in ethical dialogue, as well as the need to defend the theory of ethical dialogue against rival views. From the standpoint of theory, the ethics of dialogue is the conclusion of a three-part dialectical argument involving the refutation of solipsism and the subsequent refutation of anti-solipsism. Looking at ethical dialogue from the standpoint of praxis, it appears that learning ethical dialogue is more like learning to dance than learning an intellectual game like chess. It can’t be taught from a book. One learns ethical dialogue by engaging in ethical dialogue. One consequence of this radical conception of ethics is a new version of the problem of akrasia. You have the knowledge and the will, but fail ethically because of your practical inability to engage the other person in ethical dialogue.
Pedagogy of Care and Dialogue: A Theoretical Review of Approaches to Moral Education
Authors: Isik Fatih
Published: August 2022

This paper aims to offer a theoretical review of approaches to moral education and proposes a dialogic and care-based alternative to the conventional moral education approaches. It starts with a review and critique of the two most common approaches to moral education: traditional, moral character education and the cognitive developmental approach. Then, it explores an alternative strategy, Integrative Ethical Education (IEE), which prioritises dialogue and care in education. It is suggested that the IEE approach has the potential to address the issues that contemporary educators face.
Tolerance of Dry Beans to Pyraflufen-Ethyl/2,4-D Ester

Published: August 2022

Five field experiments were conducted in Ontario to determine the tolerance of dry beans to pyraflufen-ethyl (6.7 and 13.4 g ai ha-1), 2,4-D ester (520.3 and 1040.6 g ai ha-1) and pyraflufen-ethyl/2,4-D ester (527 and 1054 g ai ha-1) applied preplant. Pyraflufen-ethyl at 6.7 and 13.4 g ai ha-1 caused < 2% injury in azuki, kidney, small red, and white bean. 2,4-D ester at 520.3 and 1040.6 g ai ha-1 caused up to 4 and 6% injury in azuki bean; up to 5 and 12% injury in kidney bean; up to 7 and 12% injury in small red bean; and up to 5 and 8% injury in white bean, respectively. Pyraflufen-ethyl/2,4-D ester at 527 and 1054 g ai ha-1 caused up to 4 and 6% injury in azuki bean; 5 and 11% injury in kidney bean; 7 and 13% injury in small red bean; and 5 and 10% injury in white bean, respectively. Pyraflufen-ethyl (6.7 and 13.4 g ai ha-1), 2,4-D ester (520.3 and 1040.6 g ai ha-1) or their combination applied preplant caused no adverse effect on dry bean stand, aboveground dry biomass, height, seed moisture content, or yield except for 2,4-D (2X rate) and pyraflufen-ethyl/2,4-D ester (2X rate) which reduced dry bean aboveground biomass as much as 32% and plant height up to 28%. This study concludes that pyraflufen-ethyl (6.7 g ai ha-1), 2,4-D ester (520.3 g ai ha-1), and pyraflufen-ethyl/2,4-D ester (527 g ai ha-1) applied preplant is safe to use for weed management in azuki, kidney, small red, and white bean. However, care must be taken to avoid spray overlaps with 2,4-D ester and pyraflufen-ethyl/2,4-D ester to avoid unacceptable dry bean injury.

Published: August 2022

Residual herbicides and cover crops are important tools inside an integrated weed management program. The straw produced in crop rotation can interacts with herbicides. The aim of this study was to evaluate the interaction of diclosulam, sulfentrazone, imazethapyr, flumioxazin, s-metolachlor and pyroxasulfone with black oat, cereal rye, common vetch and oilseed radish cover crops and it´s reflection on weed control and soybean production. Were evaluated the biomass production of cover crops and its influence on the soybean population. A phytosociological survey of the weed community was carried out, further evaluating the control provided by the herbicides and its effects on soybean productivity. Diclosulam was the more efficient herbicide tested, reducing both weed density and biomass (68% and 89%, respectively) compared to the fallow, independently of cover crop straw. The best control levels for the population identified were provided by the combination of the herbicides diclosulam with black oat, radish or fallow. We observed that herbicide efficacy in this case was more related with control spectrum than with herbicide-straw interation. This research demonstrates that the integration of cover crops and residual herbicides is efficient in the suppression and control of weeds in the soybean crop in the no-tillage system.

Osmoconditioning stands out as an alternative treatment that aims to improve seed performance in the field. The process consists of immersing the seed in an aqueous solution containing the osmotically active compound, and thus the process of imbibition begins, which stops as soon as they reach equilibrium with the solution’s osmotic potential, allowing only the occurrence of the initial mechanisms of germination. Given the above, the objective of this work was to verify the effect of osmoconditioning on the physiological quality of sunflower seeds (Helianthus annuus L.). For that, sunflower seeds of cultivar BRS 323 were used, which were soaked in polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000) solutions at different times of 0, 2, 4 and 6 hours. Then, the seeds were washed in distilled water and sown in trays containing sterilized sand. The following descriptors were evaluated: emergence, first emergence count, emergence velocity index, shoot length, and root length. Sunflower is a plant responsible for osmoconditioning by immersion at a potential of -2 MPa for 3.8 hours. The osmoconditioning of sunflower seeds can efficiently improve seedling performance in the stand, influencing emergence and emergence speed.
Conventional Wisdom and Popular (Mis)Understanding of “Failing Schools”
Authors: Benson Keith E.
Published: August 2022

While the conception of “failing schools” has proliferated the American public’s (mis)understanding of performance of low-income urban public schools unabated since A Nation at Risk, education literature suggests “failing schools” are not what has been commonly described in conventional wisdom. Here, I begin by conceptualizing conventional wisdom before describing the popular narrative affixed to “failing schools” and briefly discussing the history of standardized assessments implemented to identify “failing schools”. And as the popular conception of “failing schools” position such schools as irredeemable education spaces as evidenced by students’ performance on standardized tests, in this article I attempt to posit a rebuttal to that conventional wisdom, namely that “failing schools” do not exist as isolated institutional sources of academic “failure” but are byproducts of longstanding economic and policy neglect of poor urban communities by policymakers, yet serve as convenient targets for the ultra-wealthy to divert popular attention away from systemic economic inequities which created illusion of “failing schools” to begin with.

The James Mitchell Museum in the Department of Geology, University College Galway (UCG), was opened in its present form in 1977. The setting, however, on the upper floor of the south-east wing of the main UCG quadrangle, together with its fittings, the oak display cabinets and the majority of the collection, are the products of the early years of Queen's College Galway. The hall is exceptional within the context of Irish geology, preserving much of the atmosphere of a mid-nineteenth-century specialist museum; moreover, it holds the reference material for William King's classic monograph on the Permian fossils of England (King 1850) and currently enjoys the support of an FAS (An Foras Aiseanna Saothair) 'community response team' assisting with the careful refurbishment and restoration of the Museum, its collections and displays.

According to the provisions of Law Number 1 of 1974 that a marriage is considered valid if carried out according to their religion and belief and reach the age limit that has been determined in the Marriage Law. On the other hand, according to Islamic law, a marriage that has fulfilled the pillars and conditions of marriage is considered a valid marriage even though it does not reach the age limit specified in the law so that the legal consequences are the same as marriages in general. Therefore, the marriage is not valid according to positive law, then the marriage has no legal consequences, but there is an impact of underage marriage on the status of children and wives. That is in terms of inheritance and child recognition

La estética política, espectadores artísticos y la arqueología de la esclavitud: las haciendas jesuitas de Nasca, Perú
Authors: Weaver Brendan J. M.
Published: August 2022

Una década de investigación arqueológica e histórica centrada en las haciendas coloniales jesuitas de Nasca (Perú), ha permitido una aproximación a la experiencia cotidiana de una gran y diversa población esclavizada de origen africano. En este artículo exploro la heterogeneidad de las experiencias materiales entre la población esclavizada, colocando un análisis de la arquitectura religiosa y sus obras de arte asociadas en conversación con contextos arqueológicos más amplios de las haciendas de San Joseph de la Nasca y San Francisco Xavier de la Nasca. Específicamente, considero el arte y la arquitectura de la capilla de San Joseph del siglo XVIII a través de sus ruinas, así como un inventario realizado en 1767 durante la expulsión de la Compañía de Jesús. Al examinar los aspectos públicos de la capilla y contrastarlos con el espacio restringido de la sacristía, incluido un análisis detallado de la pintura en un dintel, cuestiono cómo las diversas experiencias sensoriales contribuyeron al régimen estético-político en constante cambio en las haciendas.

Authors: García Analía , Teixeira Munaretto Sara
Published: August 2022

O objetivo desse artigo é discutir as potencialidades da arqueologia da diáspora africana como ativismo social. Partindo da análise de estudos de caso que abordam a prática da arqueologia da diáspora africana em sua vinculação com a patrimonialização e musealização, buscamos contribuir na construção de uma arqueologia engajada capaz de ser um agente de mudança em relação a questões de interesse social contemporâneas a partir de preocupações sociais, políticas, econômicas e ambientais contemporâneas. Concluímos que nosso campo disciplinar, como ativismo social, deve apontar para a formulação de perguntas que busquem o desenvolvimento de medidas de reparação e conscientização que favoreçam a desconstrução da colonialidade do poder, tanto da disciplina como da sociedade em geral.

The Constitutional Court is a new institution in Indonesia that also handles dispute resolution on judicial review in Indonesia. This is related to the new order era, there was no official institution authorized to examine the formation of legislation. One form of testing the legislation is to examine the implementation of Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation which uses the omnibus law system in the preparation of the legislation. Whereas in the legal system in Indonesia as regulated in Law Number 15 of 2019 concerning the Establishment of Legislation, it does not recognize the omnibus law system but rather on the codification of laws such as the Civil Code and Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning Elections. The emergence of this work copyright law cannot be separated from the many laws and regulations that apply in Indonesia which actually hinder investment. This over-regulation is caused by every institution and every problem, laws and regulations can be formed, which in the end actually creates a synchrony between the laws and regulations.

The aim of this work is to enhance the photovoltaic / thermal system performance by dissipating the high heat stored inside the PV panels. A new design of front and back cooling systems has been made based on spraying water on the front surface and circulation of a Nanofluid (A  – H2O) in the back cooper pipes with a small heat exchanger. Deionized water and Nanopowder A  are mixed homogenously to be the working fluid and used as a cooling fluid in the back closed system. Concentration ratios of Nanopowder are (0.1,0.2, 0.3,0.4, and 0.5) % with a different mass flow rates of water are applied. The thermal and electrical performance of PV/T was recorded as a function of solar irradiation intensity and temperature on the PV panel surface. The temperature of PV panel dropped from  to 64  with front and back cooling by water. This dropping in temperature led to increase the average electrical PV efficiency to (7.5) % at an optimum flow rate of (2L/min.). When using Nanofluid (A H2O), the temperature dropped significantly to (45℃) at a concentration ratio of (0.3%) causing an increment in the PV efficiency of (10.9) %.

Published: August 2022

In the Philippines, the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) has recognized the need to realign the academic program offerings of 112 state colleges and universities thereby raising the standards of quality assurance. The Accrediting Agency of Chartered Colleges and Universities in the Philippines (AACCUP), aimed to develop a new outcomes-based quality assurance (OBQA) instrument using both quantitative and qualitative approaches of a multi-method design. There are three phases of this study: 1) consideration of benchmark data; 2) development and validation of instrument; and 3) pilot testing. The first phase generated ten areas of the instrument with 700 Likert-type benchmark statements. The second phase led to the trimming of the item pool to 672. The last phase revealed that all 672 item pool identified benchmark indicators passed both the content validationas well as reliability test. It is recommended that the instrument be used and revalidated for further improvement.

Authors: Nguyen Thao Thi
Published: August 2022

Project-based Learning (PBL) is regarded as an effective teaching method to help students develop their life skills to meet the needs of the 21st century. However, PBL has not been widely implemented in Vietnam. Therefore, this case study was conducted to explore how effective PBL was to students' life skills development. Thirty-three students and an instructor in a university participated in the study. Data were collected using six classroom observations, and semi-structured interviews with nine students and the instructor. The study showed that PBL dramatically helped improve the students' problem-solving, critical-thinking, time-management, and interpersonal relationship skills. PBL also promoted some students' creativity, information technology (IT), research, leadership and film-making skills. The benefits and difficulties they encountered while doing projects motivated them to love projects that they even suggested that the school should incorporate more projects into the curriculum. The study recommends that PBL should be more widely implemented to maximize the development of students' life skills at universities.

Authors: Bituin Analyn C. , Dacanay Antonio G.
Published: August 2022

The present study developed and validated an instrument on teacher efficacy. Thirty-seven (37) situational judgment items were developed capturing the seven domains of the Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers (PPST) and was administered to a total of 585 basic education teachers selected through purposive sampling. Analysis showed that all the items had acceptable discrimination indices ranging from .469 to .824. Reliability analysis suggested high internal consistency among items, signifying that items are measuring teacher efficacy. Validity evidences based on relations to other measures suggested that the newly developed instrument share common characteristics with Bandura's Teacher Efficacy Scale and measured a different construct from Batulan's Teacher Burnout Instrument. Given the challenges of the K-12 Basic Education Program, the instrument may serve as a pivot point in helping teachers think about the ways in which they approach tasks in their classrooms as they reflect on their personal assessment of competence.
