SUICIDE CASES IN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS OF PAKISTAN; FACTORS AND SAFETY IMPLICATIONS
Authors: Muhammad Afaque Durrez, Afshan Huma
Published: July 2022

Pakistan is an Islamic Country. Suicide and attempt of suicide are against the Islamic teachings and laws of the country. The reported cases are rare, but the actual scenario of unreported incidents may be different. Reasons for suicide may be variable but lead towards exclusion from the educational stream, creating a threatening environment, thereby leaving its impact on fellow students and faculty. Suicides are not confined to only students but also have ingress in faculty. This paper is a cross-case analysis of three suicide cases with students and faculty related to higher education institutions. A qualitative research paradigm is used with a mix of secondary data available through print and electronic media and primary data of self-interaction of researcher with affiliated people of surroundings. Data were analyzed using three-stage thematic analysis, i.e. coding, clustering, pattern recognition and final write-up. The paper endeavours to understand the reasons, complex risk factors and their implications on the overall functioning of the educational process in higher educational institutions. Significant findings included but were not restricted to the relation of suicides with ethnicity, societal acceptability, harassment, and gender discrimination. Factors in these findings may contribute to students' overall safety and security in attaining educational objectives

Authors: Naureen Zaman
Published: July 2022

The advent of computer in general and internet in particular has opened new avenues for learning language. Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) is considered highly effective for language learning as technology creates a student centered environment, increases learner autonomy, and results in higher learning outcomes. This study investigated if CALL using Web Based Instruction (WBI) as a tool is more beneficial than the traditional method for teaching English grammar to undergraduate students in Pakistan. An experimental design was followed to compare the effect of technology based and traditional method of teaching and a focus group interview was conducted to obtain the participants’ views about CALL. MANCOVA test was applied for the analysis of the pretest and posttest scores. Results showed that the experimental group performed significantly better than the control group. Additionally, the students exhibited a positive attitude towards technology based teaching. Based on these findings, integration of computers is recommended in English language teaching for improved learning.

Authors: Anam Qamar, Huma Ansari
Published: July 2022

This study is created on the basis of generating the answer about ‘How students take the pressure for achieving commendable academic performance” .The major purpose of the study was to investigate about, what extent, students take academic pressure and how they can overcome that pressure by taking multiple factors into consideration which might be the reason of stress. In addition, this research also explored different perspectives by taking more than one area of study to find out that either different study area possesses a high or low level of stress due to their different nature of the study. This research utilized qualitative method by taking case study approach to investigate the study by conducting data through properly listening the interviews, making transcriptions and observations of two final year students/participants belong to the two different study areas like; Master in Business Administration and Doctor of Pharmacy. Coding and theme, data analysis method was adapted for analyzing the data. The results showed that the students are neither pressurized by the family nor by the monetary investment, but they even take workload in a positive way and one of them take failure as a challenge but other student might get dishearted if suffered from the same thing. Though multiple new factors were also emerged during the analysis, which highlighted that the students have academic stress, but it can be overcomed by taking it as a challenge and investing more hardwork and motivation to it.
REINSURANCE WITH R: PRICING, RESERVING, SOLVENCY AND PORTFOLIO ANALYSIS
Authors: Chukwudum Q.C. , Ekanem M.
Published: July 2022

The lack of education and training has been highlighted as one of the highest factors stifling the growth of the re/insurance industry in Africa. Although reinsurance is offered as a course in the insurance/actuarial undergraduate and postgraduate study programs, many higher institutions of learning in Nigeria lack the sufficient mathematical and technical faculty expertise required to thoroughly deliver the reinsurance subject matter particularly at the masters and doctorate levels. As a result of the general absence of the required expertise in the re/insurance field of study, only a couple of universities offer postgraduate programs in insurance within Nigeria. The ripple effect of this gap is consequently felt in the re/insurance sector.  This paper, therefore, is meant to serve as a teaching aid to boost the postgraduate teaching and classroom experience in reinsurance and to strengthen the technical capacity of researchers in this field. First, contributions to literature from the Nigerian academic landscape is reviewed and then the computational aspect is implemented. The study aims to bridge the gap between theory and application. Both simulated and real data are used to illustrate the different concepts in reinsurance with techniques ranging from Monte Carlo simulations to various statistical distributions. The R language has been adopted because of its ease of use.

30 minutos de Filosofía del Derecho
Authors: Garzón Valdés Ernesto
Published: July 2022

Un problema puede ser viejo por persistente, porque todavía no se ha encontrado la respuesta adecuada. Pero también puede ser viejo por recurrente, por reaparecer cuando se eliminan las condiciones que hicieron posible su solución en el pasado. Y un problema es nuevo cuando es el resultado de desafíos inéditos o hasta ahora desconocidos. El Estado de Derecho y Terrorismo es un viejo problema recurrente. El impacto de las investigaciones neurológicas en el concepto de responsabilidad es un viejo problema persistente. La erosión de las estructuras institucionales a nivel internacional es un viejo problema persistente. Un nuevo problema es la relación entre ética, política y derecho desde el punto de vista de una fi losofía analítica. Enfrentarse a estos viejos y nuevos problemas de la fi losofía del derecho desde una perspectiva analítica en el contexto de América Latina es una tarea doblemente difi cultosa.

Published: July 2022

Después de más de 200 años de vida del constitucionalismo, en América Latina, una mayoría de los países de la región sigue viéndose afectada por sistemas políticamente inestables y económicamente muy desiguales; en donde las violaciones de derechos humanos son un hecho habitual; las ramas políticas del gobierno tienden a funcionar con independencia de cualquier reclamo ciudadano, mientras se encargan de moldear normas a medida de intereses privados; los tribunales aparecen como órganos de difícil acceso público, que tienden a decidir en favor de los poderosos, criminalizando a quienes protestan; y en donde el debate público (tanto en las campañas electorales como, especialmente, en los períodos que transcurren entre una elección y otra) destaca por las pobreza de su contenido. En este trabajo, se exploran algunas de las causas de dicha situación, relacionadas con el propio diseño del sistema constitucional dominante en la región.
Rubric as Assessment Tool for Lecturers and Students in Higher Education Institution
Authors: Mrangu Leah
Published: July 2022

Rubrics in higher education have been studied in a range of disciplines and for a variety of reasons, including improving student achievement, enriching instruction, and evaluating programs. Some authors indicate good responses to the use of rubrics by teachers, whereas others have noticed instructors' reluctance to adopt them. This review aims to provide an empirical study on the utilization of rubrics as assessment tools in higher education institutions. It examines specific peer-reviewed literature on the utilization of rubrics in higher education; the utilization of rubrics in instructional and program evaluations; and the reliability, validity, and utility of rubrics. However, one study did not find a correlation between the use of rubrics and improved academic performance. It has been demonstrated that rubrics can identify the need for course and program enhancements. According to research on the validity of rubrics, clarity and appropriateness of language are of paramount importance. Rubrics can lead to a somewhat consistent assessment of student performance, according to the bulk of research on rater dependability. Suggestions for future research include the use of more rigorous research methodologies; a higher emphasis on validity and reliability; a stronger emphasis on learning; and research on the implementation of rubrics in various educational settings.

Published: July 2022

The deepening and complication of connections in today’s globalized world have led to an increased interest among scientists in the problem of formation of communicative culture of future professionals in all industries. Many scientific works of both Ukrainian and foreign scientists are devoted to the problem of formation of communicative culture of future teachers. However, scientists mainly consider the problem of formation of communicative culture of future professionals separately from other types of culture. As a result, the scientific achievements of scientists may not be fully implemented in practice. This leads to a lot of gaps in the training of future teachers. The insufficient level of communicative culture of teachers creates a barrier for the spiritual, psychophysiological and social development of children. The purpose of this article is to determine the effectiveness of cultural dialogue technology techniques in the formation of communicative culture of future teachers in primary school. To achieve this goal, the following research methods have been used: analysis of the development of communicative culture of elementary school teacher, more specifically students at Vasyl Stefanyk Precarpathian National University (Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine), participants questionnaires, various diagnostic methods, pedagogical experiment, as well as statistical methods. 92 students of the pedagogical faculty of Vasyl Stefanyk Precarpathian University participated in the experimental work. The results of the experimental work confirmed the effectiveness of the technology of culture dialogue in the formation of communicative culture of prospective primary school teachers.

Optimization-based spectrum sensing in crn for effective utilization of available channel
Authors: Goura Kavita , Vijayalakshmi Ch
Published: July 2022

Cognitive radio networks (CRN) are subjected to the challenge of demand in available resources, limited fair resource allocation between users in the heterogeneous CRN. The availability of minimal resources affects the channel allocation between Primary Users (PUs) and Secondary Users (SUs). In heterogeneous CRNs, efficient resources are available to SUs with fair resource allocation in a multi-hop environment. This paper proposed an efficient resource allocation in multi-hop CRN through Monte-Carlo Normal Form (MCNF). The proposed MCNF is involved in the optimization of the available resources through the estimation of the objective function. With Monte-Carlo estimation, MCNF computes the optimal resource availability within the CRN. Based on the Normal Form game theory resource availability of the network is computed and allocated between the users. The performance of the proposed MCNF is computed in terms of throughput, PDR, and running time. The proposed MCNF is comparatively examined with conventional game theory and the Monte-Carlo technique. The simulation analysis of the proposed MCNF expressed that running time is reduced with increased Packet delivery rate (PDR) and throughput.

This system presents an idea of distributing the tasks different processor to balance load in the field of parallel computers. Types of algorithms that can be used are static algorithms, which do not take into account the state of the different machines, and dynamic algorithms, which are usually more general and more efficient, but require exchanges of information between the different computing units, at the risk of a loss of efficiency. These algorithms are also suitable for heterogeneous environment more effectively to execute different set of task on different processors with different configurations.

Gender-based violence has a negative impact on the psychological well-being of those who suffer it. In its measurement, there is no standard measure to assess and typify it. The objective of the study was to analyze the psychometric properties of the gender violence scale in Arequipa. A total of 1,427 people participated, of whom 828 were female (58.02%), 591 were male (41.42%) and 8 were of another gender (0.56%). The scale of attitudes towards gender violence was used, which has 3 dimensions (cognitive, affective, behavioral) and 12 items. An exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was applied with the 12 items with oblique rotation (oblimin) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), showing a two-factor structure: F1 - Cognitive Affective and F2 - Behavioral, with 10 items. The internal consistency analysis showed an Omega coefficient of .84 (95% CI= .81 - .88) and .74 (95% CI= .70 - .78) for each factor respectively. When evaluating the equivalence of the measurement according to sex, the instrument showed measurement invariance. It is concluded that the scale is valid and reliable for the assessment of attitudes towards gender violence.

Published: July 2022

According to JNC VII, patients with hypertension are patients who clinically have systolic and diastolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg and ≥90 mmHg, respectively. The aging processes in hypertension are stiffening of the blood vessels and decreasing arterial flexibility. The underlying pathomechanism is oxidative stress due to reactive oxygen species (ROS) elevation. 8-Hydroxy-Deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) is an oxidized product of DNA repair as a kind of oxidative stress biomarker. This study aimed to analyze urinary 8-OHdG in hypertensive patients and healthy control aged 46-55 years old by involveing 80 participants. Questionnaires and medical records were collected to obtain relevant clinical data. The level of 8-OHdG is measured by the Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). The results showed that there is no difference in the average urinary level of urinary 8-OHdG of hypertensive patients (1.871 ± 0.689 ng/mL) with the healthy controls (1.743 ± 0.364 ng/mL).

Compreende esta crise, entre outras possíveis causas, como resultado do fracasso do projeto filosófico (e científico) da  modernidade. Reconhece como fracasso o esgotamento das expectativas forjadas por princípios e teses estabelecidas neste período. Entre elas, a de uma razão suficiente e autorreguladora. Razão concebida como universal e comum a todos os homens, responsável pelo esclarecimento e pela condução da civilização a objetivos promissores futuros, ao progresso civilizatório da humanidade. Criticando ilusões futuristas como estas, o presente artigo reflete sobre a possibilidade de superação desta crise por meio de novos princípios e teses construídas sob novas expectativas que tenham no presente e na contingência seu regime de temporalidade a embasar um renovado projeto de homem e de humanidade. Para isso recorrere a parte da história do evolucionismo, especialmente a Darwin, seguindo a leitura que Canguilhem lhe dedicou e sua crítica ao darwinismo conservador.
In the Context of Palliative Care

Most, if not all, consultations often end with a sentence which sounds similar to the following, “I will be prescribing to you this list of medications….”. Evidently, medical practitioners, and medical students alike, are often most keen about the medications they prescribe to their patients. Drugs are akin to a doctor’s toolbox in their attempt to fix their patients’ illnesses. Furthermore, several hospitals and healthcare systems globally mandate medication reconciliation as part of the hospital visit, highlighting the increased development and purchase of new drugs (Porcelli et al., 2010). Unfortunately, this can open a Pandora’s box of problems, which ultimately may not confer solely benefit for the patients.
