A prática do ensino de filosofia como proposta de intervenção na depredação do patrimônio público escolar
Authors: Franco Alexandre Souza
Published: February 2024

O presente trabalho tem por finalidade sugerir uma proposta de atividade filosófica a partir da leitura e reflexão do texto “Oração fúnebre de Péricles”, para buscar sanar um problema que, ao longo dos anos, vem se tornando cada vez mais intenso, como é o caso da depredação do patrimônio público escolar. Problema que se apresenta da seguinte forma: diante do quadro de abando e indiferença, principalmente por parte dos alunos, como a filosofia pode contribuir para amenizar a desvalorização para com o patrimônio público escolar? Ou seja, de que maneira a filosofia pode estimular um sentimento de pertença, por parte dos alunos de nível médio das escolas públicas estaduais, em relação ao ambiente escolar? Para dirimir esta questão, o trabalho se estrutura em três seções. Na primeira, a atenção se voltou para a exposição do quadro de depredação no qual muitos colégios se encontram, com base nas pesquisas desenvolvidas por professores da rede pública estadual de educação apoiados pelo Plano de Desenvolvimento da Educação (PDE). Em seguida, apresenta-se a filosofia enquanto saber de formação, ou seja, enquanto modalidade de conhecimento que procura, por meio de suas peculiaridades, demonstrar como é possível, a partir da reflexão filosófica e de um processo de formação humana, buscar resolver a problemática do vandalismo por parte de muitos alunos e a questão da indiferença por parte de alguns professores insensíveis ao problema. Na terceira, por fim, a proposta didático-filosófica é apresentada como sugestão de intervenção. Ela se divide em duas etapas na qual a primeira tem por objetivo a leitura, interpretação e reflexão do texto filosófico em sala de aula, na segunda, a parte prática, que estimula os alunos a proporem projetos de mudanças num ambiente do qual fazem parte durante um longo período de tempo, na perspectiva de deixarem o seu legado. Com isso, espera-se não só contribuir para o enriquecimento de propostas de atividades voltadas para o ensino de filosofia nas aulas do ensino médio, mas também contribuir para um ideal de pessoa humana que se perceba pertencente à determinada comunidade e valorize o legado cultural recebido, como é o caso da instituição escolar.
A busca pelo ensino superior: análise dos impactos linguísticos de estudantes de Colinas/MA
Authors: Teixeira Daniel dos Santos , Da Silva José Genésio Lima
Published: February 2024

A fuga do campo à cidade é um fenômeno existente, de fato, no Brasil. A busca por oportunidades de emprego mostra-se, a cada dia, mais comum. Mediante a isso, um outro fenômeno existente e permanente no país tem-se mostrado, também, cada vez mais frequente: a saída de jovens de interiores e municípios menores para as capitais em busca da formação superior. Entrelaçado a isso, este trabalho preocupa-se com a explicação dos possíveis impactos que estas saídas podem ocasionar. Tendo como fator de observação científica os estudos de linguagem, este trabalho, então, busca o preconceito linguístico como o de maior atenção. Como objetos de pesquisa, escolheu-se jovens que saíram do município de Colinas – MA até a capital do estado do Piauí, Teresina. A escolha deu-se através da observação, pois percebeu-se que a frequência de saída do primeiro município ao outro é comum.  Para a explicação destes fatos, passeia-se pelos estudos sociolinguísticos, baseando-se na preocupação do esclarecimento das variações que as línguas vêm a sofrer quando concretizadas na fala. Esta pesquisa, então, apesar de contemplar a pesquisa bibliográfica, utiliza-se da pesquisa de campo como fonte maior na busca de respostas. Permeando os estudos sociolinguísticos, sobressai-se como explicadores destes fenômenos Fiorin (2015), Freitag (2007) e Labov (2014). Dos estudos para compreensão da mudança e preconceito linguístico, utilizou-se como base os estudos de Bagno (2013 - 2014). Por meio deste estudo, percebeu-se que as mudanças existentes na fala são notadas pela maioria dos estudantes analisados. Ademais, o preconceito linguístico ainda, mesmo que em uma esfera mínima, ocorre mediante aos fatores de mudanças regionais.

Rethinking the music curriculum theories: Towards an updated comprehensive student-centred approach
Authors: Saltari Regina , Kokkidou May
Published: February 2024

This article reports a theoretical investigation on music curriculum and explores the factors that shape the practice of music education in terms of the official and other music curricula. We drew on relevant literature and explored four key aspects of the design and implementation of music curriculum: policy-making contexts, teaching practices, students’ practices and attitudes, and school contexts. Currently, music education research focuses on student-centredness as an important element in music practice. Embracing students’ various ways of musical engagement as well as their music identities promotes further development of their musical-social skills and enhances their interests. We suggest the development of an updated and comprehensive music curriculum which is student-centred and based on new musical literacies that respond to students’ daily musical needs and address the challenges of today’s social context. Our suggestion is encompassed in five core principles: 1) Getting to know our students, 2) Discussing the teaching-learning goals with our students, 3) Adapting to local conditions, 4) Bottom-up and top-down perspectives: Finding the balance through authentic classroom activities, and 5) Contextualising assessment. The article advocates for the effective use of all types of music curricula so that students become active, responsible and critical thinkers in their personal, social and musical lives.
ENERGETIC CONDITIONS OF MAXIMISING TEMPERATUREAND ENERGY DENSITY IN THE ENVIRONMENT OF FRICTIONCONTACT OF SOLIDS
Authors: Maciąg Maria
Published: February 2024

The paper is intended to determine maximum temperatures in the friction zone of solids. An original model ofthermal processes in a miniature test object – environment of a selected contact of asperities – is proposed. Itsvolume is limited to an area where energy dissipation and wear take place. The discussion is based on an energybalance including temperature variations within the object. An original method of establishing the maximumvalue of the so-called flash temperature on the basis of an experiment addressing the thermodynamic natureof friction is proposed. A method of determining average density of energy dissipated in a tested volume isspecified as well. An analytical description of elementary friction includes physical properties of a material:density, specific heat, hardness; parameters characterising friction and wear, such as coefficient of friction,coefficient of wear, nominal unit pressure, specific work of wear, unit work of mechanical dissipation,temperature of friction surface, temperature of the immediate environment of surface asperities contact,mass of energy dissipation area, mass wear, and structure of the energy balance. The proposed description offriction within a contact of surface asperities encompasses analytical dependences that relate all the physicalquantities accepted as characteristics of an object and the process inside it to one another. A quantitativeevaluation of the maximum temperature and density of dissipated energy is undertaken for a selected instanceof tribological testing.

Authors: Şimşek Sadullah , Merve Çetin Funda , İşlek Akif , Atabay Yusuf
Published: February 2024

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between clinical and laboratory findings of the disease and chest computed tomography (CT) features in patients diagnosed with novel coronavirus-2019 (COVID-19).

Materials and methods: The prospective study included a total of 53 patients (30 males, 23 females; mean age: 54.8±19.9 years; range, 17 to 96 years) who were hospitalized due to COVID-19 between March 2020 and May 2020. A detailed chest CT examination was performed to the patients during hospitalization by a blinded radiologist. The radiological findings were classified according to the literature and frequencies of ground-glass opacities, the number of lobe involvement, consolidation, and posterior lung involvement and bilateral pneumonia. The C-reactive protein (CRP) level was established as the laboratory criterion. The clinical manifestation and severity of the disease and health status of the patients during hospitalization were recorded by a blinded pulmonologist. The severity classification of the disease was classified as mild = 1, common = 2, severe = 3, and critical = 4.

Results: The mean CRP levels was 18.1±27.1 U/mL in the mild disease group (n=11) and 108±23.6 U/mL in the critical group (n=8) (p=0.001). The most common findings in the chest CT were ground-glass opacities (n=36, 67.9%). Six (11.3%) patients had no CT findings, while 43 (81.1%) patients had bilateral pneumonia. The presence of ground-glass opacities and consolidation exacerbated the classification of the disease significantly (p=0.001 and p=0.001, respectively). A significant positive correlation was found between age, CRP level, and the number of lobes with pneumonia and severity disease (p=0.049, p=0.001, and p=0.001, respectively; r=0.270, r=0.587, and r=0.625, respectively).

Conclusion: Multilobar involvement and consolidation in COVID-19 pneumonia significantly correlate with the clinical severity of the disease and laboratory findings. Therefore, widespread involvement in chest CT during hospitalization may be a warning for the clinician.

Authors: Hasbek Ezgi , Kübra Dindar Demiray Emine , Alkan Çeviker Sevil , Hüseyin Metineren Mehmet
Published: February 2024

Although tuberculosis is a disease that can be prevented and treated, it remains a significant health problem in developing countries, such as our country. Tuberculosis is an important public health problem in children as well as in adults in our country. Both pulmonary and extrapulmonary tuberculosis can be seen in children. In children, the most common form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis is tuberculous lymphadenitis. Although viral factors are more common in pediatric patients presenting with lymphadenopathy, tuberculosis is also an important disease to be considered in the etiology of lymphadenopathy in children. In this case report, we aimed to emphasize the importance of tuberculosis in terms of etiologic approach in a patient who presented to the pediatrics outpatient clinic with multiple lymphadenopathies.

Published: February 2024

Objectives: Tuberculous parotitis (TP) is a disease that should be considered in the differential diagnosis along with parotid malignancy and other parotid inflammatory diseases due to its clinical features. Advanced diagnostic methods have made the diagnosis of tuberculous parotitis much easier. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reported TP cases in Turkey.

Materials and methods: The pooled analysis method was used in the study. Using the keywords, a total of 23 articles were found in five databases. The study included 18 articles, with five articles published before the year 2000 being eliminated.

Results: The articles were all case reports and case series. A total of 18 articles were used to evaluate data from 26 cases. The mean age of the cases was 37.7 (9-72) years, with 8 males and 18 females. In 13 of the cases, the localization was on the right side, 11 on the left, bilaterally in one, and unspecified in one. The most common complaints in terms of symptoms were facial swelling (96%), neck swelling (11.5%), high fever (7.7%), eye swelling (3.8%), painful jaw movements (3.8%), and shoulder swelling (3.8%). The average duration of symptoms was 32.3 months (10 days-30 years). Concurrent HIV infection was never reported. There was no history of tuberculosis in any of the cases. Four cases had a tuberculosis family history, while 15 did not. In addition to localized physical examination findings, fever was reported in two cases, as were ocular findings in two cases, weight loss in one case, shoulder pain in one case, and cough and sputum in one case. One patient had cervical vertebra tuberculosis with retropharyngeal abscess and parotid gland involvement.

Conclusion: Tuberculous parotitis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of parotid gland involvement, particularly in endemic regions such as our country.

Published: February 2024

Objectives: Ensuring food security is of global importance to prevent human exposure during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. This study aimed to evaluate the adult attitudes and behaviors regarding food safety during the period of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Materials and methods: The sample of the study consisted of 660 individuals (131 males, 529 females; median age: 25 [IQR 13.0]; range, 20 to 65 years) living in Turkey. The disinfection procedures that individuals apply to raw vegetables and fruits, their behavior during shopping, and their access to information regarding food safety during the COVID-19 pandemic were questioned. The data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test and the chi-square test.

Results: In the disinfection of foods, adults preferred vinegar (95.6%) the most. The relationship between sex and disinfection of raw vegetables and fruits was found to be statistically significant (p<0.05). It was determined that 98.8% of the participants paid attention to social distancing during shopping, 99.2% wore masks, and information regarding food safety was accessed more via social media (57.3%).

Conclusion: It was determined that changes occurred in individuals' attitudes and behaviors regarding food safety during the pandemic. Further studies are needed to determine the impact of changes in COVID-19 and food safety on humans.
Noncoding RNA-targeted treatment for schizophrenia: CRISPR/CAS9
Authors: Özulu Çağatay , Erbaş Oytun
Published: February 2024

Schizophrenia is a genetically related mental disorder in which most genetic changes occur in non-coding regions of the human genome. In the past decade, an increasing number of non-coding regulatory RNAs (ncRNAs), including microRNA (miRNA) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), have been strongly associated with schizophrenia. However, understanding the workings of ncRNA and genetic mutations in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia has failed due to insufficient technology and lack of appropriate animal models to effectively manipulate ncRNA genes. Recently, Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated nuclease 9 (Cas9; CRISPR/Cas9) has been developed to enable researchers to overcome these challenges. This review article mainly focuses on the use of CRISPR/Cas9 editing of these regions to demonstrate the causal relationship between mutations in non-coding regions of genomic DNA that express schizophrenia-related ncRNAs and the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Furthermore, although CRISPR/Cas9 technology is still in its infancy and immature for use in the treatment of diseases, its potential to transform this advanced technology into a clinical treatment for schizophrenia will be discussed. This review describes the application of powerful and viable CRISPR/Cas9 technology to manipulate ncRNA genes associated with schizophrenia.

O CONTROLE JUDICIAL DAS CLÁUSULAS INTEGRANTES DOS INSTRUMENTOS COLETIVOS NEGOCIADOS RESTRIÇÕES À ATUAÇÃO JURISDICIONAL DO PODER JUDICIÁRIO PELA REFORMA TRABALHISTA DE 2017
Authors: Dos Santos Verônica Fleury Pavan Roriz
Published: February 2024

A reforma trabalhista, de forma geral, apresenta profunda desordem com a Constituição Federal de 1988, pois afeta a proteção de direitos fundamentais de um Estado Democrático de Direito, representando, assim, urgente desafio interpretativo. Nesse cenário, o objeto do artigo científico o estudo do novo parágrafo 3º do art. 8º da CLT, que restringe a atuação do Poder Judiciário quando da análise dos diplomas normativos, limitando-se a aferir, apenas os requisitos do negócio jurídico, constantes no art. 104 do Código Civil. Para tanto, necessário se faz resgatar o sentido dos institutos constitucionais referentes à matéria, e também amoldar o conteúdo das mudanças do direito positivo, que acabou por impactar e dar nova forma ao Direito Coletivo do Trabalho. A interpretação pretendida haverá de preferir no sentido de que a Justiça do Trabalho deve compreender o papel regulador complementar à ordem jurídica heterônoma estatal que é cumprido pela negociação coletiva trabalhista, respeitando, de maneira geral, os seus dispositivos celebrados, todavia, o art. 8º da CLT não terá força para arrefecer as ações anulatórias de cláusula de norma coletiva.

A água é primordial para a vida e possui grande importância social, econômica e ambiental. O despejo inadequado de resíduos industriais, produtos químicos e esgoto in natura poluem os rios, lagos e aquíferos, comprometendo a disponibilidade e a qualidade hídrica. Dessa forma, o monitoramento da qualidade hídrica é uma ferramenta indispensável na busca pela conservação e recuperação ambiental, nesse contexto a ecotoxicologia aquática emerge como ferramenta crucial de monitoramento, proporcionando através de ensaios com organismos bioindicadores, uma compreensão dos impactos das substâncias químicas e poluentes presentes nos ecossistemas aquáticos. Para a realização de análises ecotoxicológicas é necessário a adoção de normas técnicas de procedimento e preservação de amostras. As normas e diretrizes adotadas asseguram a confiabilidade dos resultados obtidos. Essas diretrizes contemplam os métodos de exposição aos compostos químicos e os parâmetros a serem monitorados ao longo dos ensaios. Além disso, as normas prescrevem procedimentos de preservação das amostras a fim de garantir a minimização de fatores que poderiam afetar a integridade das análises ecotoxicológicas. O congelamento de amostras é um método de preservação adotado por normas técnicas. O objetivo do presente estudo é avaliar o armazenamento de amostras através do congelamento, verificando o efeito do processo de congelamento e descongelamento das amostras de água nos ensaios de ecotoxicidade. A norma ABNT-NBR 15088:2016 foi adotada como base. O bioindicador utilizado foi o peixe Danio rerio, organismo amplamente utilizado em ensaios ecotoxicológicos. Foi utilizado água de seis rios localizados na zona Oeste do Rio de Janeiro. Os ensaios foram do tipo agudo com duração de 48 horas e ocorreram com as amostras em duas condições, amostras frescas e amostras congeladas por 15 dias a 18 °C. Foram observados efeitos adversos, mortalidade, alterações comportamentais. As amostras apresentaram redução da toxicidade após o congelamento e descongelamento, com perdas de 40% a 100% em seu efeito tóxico. Os resultados obtidos apontam importância de considerar os efeitos da técnica de armazenamento de amostras. Dessa forma, são necessários estudos aprofundados das condições específicas em que o congelamento é empregado como método de preservação a fim de garantir a integridade dos resultados dos ensaios ecotoxicológicos.
Understanding ‘Batik Belanda’ in Dutch Society via Co-Creation Experience of Creative Tourism Practice
Authors: Soemardi Arlene Dwiasti
Published: February 2024

Batik Belanda is a long-established acculturated cultural heritage from the Dutch East Indies era. Some examples of Batik Belanda can be seen in Batik Buketan (bouquet) and Batik Snow White (folklore). However, the representation and understanding of Batik Belanda remain deceptive. Additionally, this specific batik is still underrepresented in modern society, losing its dialogical purpose as a heritage and its connection to Indonesian and Dutch individuals’ cultural identities. Developing creative tourism is one of the solutions to promote heritage – deemed to provide a better understanding via in-depth learning and personal contact. This qualitative research was conducted in the Netherlands to analyze the potential of Batik Belanda and creative tourism practice. The creative tourism practice was done by creating an immersive batik workshop with the goal of generating interest in both Indonesian and Dutch communities in the Netherlands to connect with their cultural heritage from Indonesia. Participants’ observations and interviews with 10 workshop participants served as the main methodology. This research indicated how participants’ experiences increased their understanding of cultural heritage and fulfilled their emotional needs through the workshop, giving them motivation and shaping their interest in the pre-visit stage of cultural tourism in Indonesia. On the other hand, their interest in culture and tourism in Indonesia was divided, determined by how they perceive post-colonial subjects and their cultural identities as a community in the Netherlands.

Published: February 2024

Constructed wetlands are globally recognized as effective nature-based solutions to wastewater treatment providing significant ecological and socio-economic benefits. This study aims to identify the ecosystem services provided by the constructed wetlands and evaluate their economic value. This study administered a survey questionnaire to 270 households of Fishermen’s Gawad Kalinga Village in Bayawan City, Negros Oriental, Philippines and employed a contingent valuation method to investigate their willingness to pay for the constructed wetlands. Respondents identified several ecosystem services of the constructed wetlands including the provisioning (water supply and biomass), regulating (wastewater treatment, water purification, climate regulation, flood prevention), supporting (habitat formation, nutrient cycling, hydrological cycle), and cultural (tourism, educational and research, recreation, aesthetic) services. Results showed that 96.3% of the respondents were willing to pay for the ecosystem services, with a mean of PHP 107.28. In terms of socio-demographic characteristics, age group and sex have no significant impact on WTP; while positive, weak, monotonic association for highest educational attainment; and positive, very weak for monthly income. The findings hold a significant promise for the government and other stakeholders to adopt a constructed wetland in achieving more human ecological and sustainable peri-urban communities.

Published: February 2024

Parent involvement is very essential  because it contributes to the success of children in  academics and extracurricular aspects. It also hastens the  implementation of school projects of the Parent-Teacher  Association (PTA). The study was conducted to know the  level of parent involvement in both the elementary and  secondary levels. Descriptive research was used in the  study. Results showed that the level of parent involvement  in the elementary level was very high in the academics  and extracurricular aspects, and high in performing  their role as members of the Parent-Teacher Association  (PTA). The level of parent involvement in the secondary  level was high in the three aspects, namely academics,  extracurricular, and as members of the PTA. Moreover, the  findings showed that the difference between the level of  parent involvement in the elementary and secondary levels  was not statistically significant. This means that parents in  both levels display similar level of involvement in their  children's school activities and in performing their role as  members of the PTA. Thus, it is evident that parents in both  the elementary and secondary levels have the willingness  to support their children and reach out to any activities the  school imposes.

This descriptive study was conducted to develop and validate the proposed standard competencies for Architectural Drafting Technology Program of the Bachelor in Industrial Technology Curriculum of the Western Visayas College of Science and Technology. It sought to ascertain the degree of importance of each underpinning knowledge, skills, and attitude, and to determine if significant differences exist between the degrees of importance for each domain as evaluated by the academe and industry sectors. The data gathered from purposively selected 40 respondents from the academe and 20 from the industry based in the Iloilo Province were interpreted and analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). The results revealed that both sectors agreed to all the items but differed in their evaluation. The overall rating obtained had a verbal interpretation of “very highly necessary” which means that the proposed standard competencies are valid and acceptable. In addition, a significant difference in the degree of importance existed in favor of the academe. The researcher recommended for the implementation of the standard competencies in other state universities and colleges in Western Visayas.
Geotechnical variability: in the ground and throughout a career
Authors: Jaksa Mark
Published: February 2024

This paper presents three aspects of geotechnical engineering research that have been conducted throughout the author’s career and concludes with a brief treatment of the use of physical models in teaching. The first research topic deals with quantifying the large-scale spatial variability of the Keswick Clay in Adelaide by means of undrained shear strength data acquired from several private consulting companies and government departments, incorporating a large number of site investigations. The mathematical technique of geostatistics is used, and it is observed that kriging with a spherical model, with a range of influence of 1000 m, a nugget of 1500 kPa2, and a sill of 2500 kPa2, is able to generate good estimates of the undrained shear strength of the Keswick Clay that can be used for preliminary design purposes. Secondly, the ground improvement technique of rolling dynamic compaction (RDC) is examined in the field and in the laboratory, and numerically by means of artificial neural networks (ANNs). It is observed that RDC is able to improve the ground to depths in excess of 3 m, and the use of transparent soils in the laboratory provides useful insights regarding the influence of RDC on the subsurface profile. In addition, ANNs facilitate the development of reliable models for the prediction of the level of ground improvement due to RDC. The third and final research topic presented involves ground improvement on the Moon. It is a work-in-progress, and early results are presented in this fascinating and exciting endeavour. The paper concludes with a brief treatment of the use of three different physical models used in teaching. It is observed that incorporating demonstrations involving physical models in teaching is helpful for enhancing student learning and engagement.
Manusia Pete-Pete dan Perayaan Makassarisme
Authors: Syamsul Asri
Published: February 2024

Panggung sosial yang pete`-pete` hadirkan bersifat stategis karena perjumpaan antar warga kota yang difasilitasinya, diarahkannya, didevaluasinya dan ditundanya berlangsung massif, baik secara durasional maupun secara geografis; pada hampir semua belahan tubuh Kota Makassar hadir pete`-pete` di hampir semua waktu, bukan sekadar ketika pete`-pete` jalan on the road namun juga ketika pete`-pete` terparkir. Nilai inilah yang membuat pete`-pete` bisa dikaitkan secara konseptual dan praktis dengan wacana ruang publik di Kota Makassar, yang saya sebut sebagai Makassarisme; pete`-pete` adalah sejenis mode melintasi ruang Kota Makassar bersama orang lain. Kebersamaan ini memiliki ciri khusus yakni terjadi di atas/di dalam sebuah entitas mekanik yang bergerak, dalam situasi psikologi sosial yang temporer namun intens. Kebersamaan ini, secara sosial eksistensial, banyak menyumbang kepada definisi ke-kita-an  yang dihidupi oleh warga Kota Makassar, terkhusus bagaimana mendefinisikan diri sendiri di hadapan orang lain, bagaimana mendefinisikan orang lain dalam suatu perjumpaan yang berhimpitan, dan bagaimana status serta nilai kekuasaan yang hadir di dalam, di antara dan di luar pete`-pete`. Tulisan ini dibangun dalam kerangka penelitian lapangan (field research) yang menggunakan pendekatan fenomenologis etnografis. Metode pengumpulan data yang digunakan adalah etnografi panggung (stagial ethnography) dalam bentuk mengendarai, memakai, memaknai (verstehen) pete`-pete` dan wawancara mendalam (deep interview) dengan subjek yang berkepentingan dengan pete`-pete`. Metode analisis data yang digunakan adalah outcroppings terhadap data lapangan dan materi wawancara untuk memperoleh data kualitatif tentang relasi pete`-pete` dengan wacana & praksis social Makassarisme. Penyelidikan yang lebih  detail terhadap hal ini diharapkan mampu membantu warga Kota Makassar untuk memahami pete`-pete`nya dan konsekuensi yang dibawanya.
