Educators’ Reasons for Not Practising 2SLGBTQ+ Inclusive Education
Authors: Campbell Christopher , Peter Tracey , Taylor Catherine
Published: December 2021

In this article, we analyze educators’ self-reported reasons for not addressing LGBTQ topics in their schools in order to develop a clearer picture of the barriers that prevent educators from engaging in LGBTQ-supportive practices. Using hierarchal OLS (ordinary least squares) and logistic regression models to analyze the impacts of demographic, individual-based, and school-based barriers to practising LGBTQ inclusive education, we found that the most common reasons for inaction reported by educators were a lack of training/resources and general fear of opposition from various sources; however, educators who felt  that confidence in the level of support for LGBTQ-inclusive education at the school level were less likely to give these as reasons for inaction.
Des interventions en français réinvesties dans la résolution de problèmes en mathématiques au primaire : Vers le développement d’un contrôle interdisciplinaire chez les élèves
Authors: Saboya Mireille , Tremblay Mélanie
Published: December 2021

La résolution de problèmes est un incontournable dans l’enseignement et l’apprentissage des mathématiques. La co-construction d’interventions visant à développer un contrôle chez les élèves lors de la résolution de problèmes est au cœur de deux projets de recherche collaborative impliquant divers intervenant(e)s du milieu. Les enseignant(e)s y jouent un rôle fondamental pour amener leurs élèves à réfléchir sur leurs actions posées et à poser. Ces projets s’inscrivent au niveau primaire, l’un au début du primaire (2e et 3 années) dans des classes en adaptation scolaire et l’autre au 3e cycle du primaire (5e et 6e années). L’analyse des discussions au sein des rencontres réflexives tenues avec les enseignant(e)s relève plusieurs interventions teintées par leur travail mené en français. Ce texte présente ces interventions et aborde leur potentiel quant au développement d’un contrôle chez les élèves. Les résultats obtenus enrichissent les recherches qui s’intéressent aux liens interdisciplinaires entre les mathématiques et le français.
Identifying the Impact of Culturally Relevant Pedagogy: Evidence of Academic Risk-Taking in Culturally and Economically Diverse Nova Scotia Classrooms
Authors: Mitton Jennifer , Murray-Orr Anne
Published: December 2021

This article reports on findings from a qualitative research study investigating ways to support learners from populations who have been historically underserved by the Nova Scotia education system, particularly African Nova Scotian and Mi’kmaq learners, and learners who experience poverty. Working with middle school teachers located in rural schools with a proven track record of enabling students to succeed and thrive, we spent two years in their classrooms observing and documenting pedagogical practices in the teaching of science and social studies. The results of this research not only complement what is known about how to support vulnerable learners in diverse school contexts, but also provide insights into how these teachers created conditions in which students felt able to take risks academically. The findings of this study show how the idea of academic risk-taking can complement, and expand, scholarship on culturally relevant pedagogy.
Situation in Special Education: Interaction between Teachers and Children Who Have Intellectual Disability and Who Display Challenging Behaviours
Authors: Guikas Ioanna , Morin Diane
Published: December 2021

Interactions between staff and individuals with intellectual disability have been shown to influence the development or maintenance of challenging behaviours among the latter. Given the implications of these observations, the present study sought to describe special education teachers’ responses to challenging behaviours displayed by their pupils. Eight teachers and 12 children with intellectual disability who manifested challenging behaviours were observed over the course of 6 months. Teachers completed questionnaires regarding their emotional reactions to, and understanding of, challenging behaviours. They also reported their behavioural and emotional responses to challenging behaviours described in vignettes. The combination of observation and questionnaires provided a more comprehensive understanding of teacher’s attitudes towards challenging behaviours. Results indicated a discrepancy between reported and observed behaviours. Teachers preferred verbal interventions or not responding to challenging behaviours. The analysis of interactions between teachers and their pupils highlighted relationships between emotions, attributions and several behaviours.
Prevalence and Molecular Characterization of Giardia duodenalis Assemblage D of Dogs in Egypt, and Its Zoonotic Implication
Authors: Abdel Aziz Amer R. , S.G. Sorour Shimaa
Published: December 2021

Background, Methods: To elucidate the prevalence and molecular characterization of Giardia infection in dogs, a cross-sectional study was performed on stray and housed dogs from different localities of Egypt. Results: A total of 986 fecal specimens were collected from dogs. The overall infection rate was 8.5%. The diarrheic dogs revealed higher prevalence of 14.43% than asymptomatic animals. The infection was more prevalent in younger dogs ( < 6 months) (9.5%) compared to older animals. Higher prevalence of infection was observed during the cold winter months (11.24%). The community owned dogs (stray dogs in the street) showed (11.75%) higher prevalence rate than pet dogs in the household environment (5.59%). Moreover, it was found that dogs fed on undercooked meat, and offal's were showing higher prevalence of giardiasis than dogs fed on canned meat. On the other hand, dogs subjected to regular grooming and good hygienic practices had lesser prevalence rate of the infection compared to unclean neglected dogs. Conclusions: The sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of the amplicons of 18SrRNA gene of G. duodenalis revealed that; they were closer to assemblage D necessitating urgent attention due to their zoonotic importance.

Published: December 2021

Con respecto al pretencioso proceso evolutivo del hombre, se nos ha dicho que a fin de sobrevivir nos adaptamos despojándonos de aspectos que nos atan a un estado primitivo de vida. Como si necesitáramos dejar atrás parte de nuestro cuerpo. Poniendo en énfasis aquello que hemos adquirido como valor superior del cual debemos estar agradecidos. Sin embargo, generalmente nos olvidamos de que aquello que dejamos atrás, ya sean instintos, dedos pequeños, pelos en la cara, erizamiento de la piel, exhibición de actitudes casi animales, son rasgos que nos vuelven más humanos. Más sudorosos. Y sobre todo más presentes y cómplices convivientes con el entorno natural. Entendiéndose como natural aquello que no ha sido intervenido o instrumentalizado ni siquiera por la mirada o la imaginación. Siendo el rasgo de la vista el más inquietante alrededor del tema evolutivo, podemos observar que se ha convertido en la primera herramienta que el Homo Faber ha usado para imaginar el mundo para el cual es necesario evolucionar. Creando a su vez otras herramientas que le ayuden a formar ese nuevo mundo. Tales como la fe religiosa, la educación como utensilio, el extractivismo como intercambio amoroso, la estructura familiar heterosexual, y quizás la más galante de todas, la tecnología como fuente de narración.
Las Fake news, enemigas del periodismo, la comunicación y los Derechos Humanos

Una de las labores sustanciales del periodismo y la comunicación es la de la circulación de la información de manera equitativa a todos los miembros de una sociedad. Así, la labor periodística y de los medios de comunicación está implícita en los Derechos Humanos proclamados en diciembre de 1948, ya que como versa el Artículo 19 de dicho documento, el derecho a la comunicación es un derecho humano fundamental y los Estados deben garantizar la libertad de expresión y de creencias, además de garantizar la libertad de expresión pero, ante todo, el mismo artículo estipula el derecho a recibir información por cualquier medio, sin importar la frontera. Bajo estos preceptos, consideramos que los medios de comunicación y el periodismo tienen la obligación de generar un pensamiento ético, critico e informado con la finalidad de garantizar el derecho fundamental a la información.
El presente artículo profundiza sobre este tema exponiendo la importancia del pensamiento critico en los medios, el combate a las llamadas fake news* y una revisión de las garantías que se ofrecen en la actualidad en los medios a los Derechos Humanos en general.

Published: December 2021

Research is one of the key pillars in the teaching and learning situation in any university in the world. However, the approach to research varies from one university to the other. The purpose of this study was to find out how the level of awareness and satisfaction, the challenges and extent of use of open access resources impact research productivity of faculty in *Dartum University. A quantitative survey research method was adopted. A sample size of 62 full-time lecturers and 134 part-time lecturers was selected for the study using a stratified simple random sampling technique. The findings revealed that research productivity is low despite the high level of awareness and satisfaction with open access use. Again, the findings showed that faculty members use open access to a considerable extent and point out some challenges associated with open access use. It was concluded that there is a very weak but significant influence of open access use on research productivity in Dartum University. It is recommended that African universities, and in particular Dartum University, establish or patronise institutional repositories which support open access.

Published: December 2021

This paper is devoted to experimental study of the instantaneous and average flow structure in the pre-mixed propaneair swirling flames using optical noncontact PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) method in stereoscopic configuration. A visualization of the typical regimes of combustion for the swirling and non-swirling flame in a wide range of Reynolds numbers and equivalence ratios is presented. In addition, boundaries of steady combustion are defined. Measurements of instantaneous velocity fields for typical combustion regimes are performed. Instantaneous velocity fields were used to calculate the spatial distribution of the mean velocity and turbulence kinetic energy component. Interaction of the flame with a large-scale vortex structures is studied. It shows significantly different effects of burning on the turbulent structure of twisted jet. The paper describes algorithms of data processing, in particular, adaptive cross-correlation method of calculating the instantaneous velocity fields based on an analysis of the local particle image concentration. This method allows to effectively filtering out the velocity vector outliers, which appear in areas with low concentration of tracers during gas flows diagnostics, and calculate the spatial distribution of such characteristics as the intensity of turbulent pulsations.
Kinetic Equations for Local Concentrations of Reactants in Spatially Inhomogeneous Solutions
Authors: Kadetov Aleksandr , Kipriyanov Alexey , Doktorov Aleksandr
Published: December 2021

Spatially inhomogeneous dilute solutions of reactants placed in a continual solvent (Waite approach) are examined. Based on the familiar non-Markovian kinetic equations of the Integral Encounter Theory, the Markovian kinetic equations were first obtained that allowed for the force action of reactants on each other due to binary encounters in solution during reactant macroscopic displacement. It has been shown that the value of “collisional integral” of reactants determined by their stochastic motion is small as compared to the “collisional integral” with the solvent molecules in the frame of the binary approach to the description of the solvent evolution. Nevertheless, taking account of the encounters of reactants with each other may turn out to be of primary importance, since it results in new physical effects.
