Unintended Consequences: When Innovation in Pedagogy Impacts Student Evaluations
Authors: Fisher Rosemary , Perera Chamila , Laferriere Richard
Published: June 2024

Student evaluation of teaching surveys (SETS) is one of the most controversial tools used in higher education, globally.  Recently the impact that SETS had on innovation in pedagogy has been raised as a potential problem.  The teaching team experienced a gap between the SETS results generated for a final-year undergraduate class that utilized flipped learning as the innovation and an empirical research project using the same cohort of students that investigated the effectiveness of that pedagogy. Accordingly, from 2014, we established this cross-sectional sequential study over seven semesters to understand how students used the SETS after experiencing this innovation. We conducted a thematic analysis on the 588 SETS results from a final-year undergraduate class studying at an Australian university and found resisting students used the SETS as a weapon with adoption of the innovation the prime casualty.  We recommend SETS be tailored for use where students experience innovation in pedagogy as the use of SETS by students may undermine the adoption of otherwise effective pedagogy and impact the willingness of faculty to pursue innovation in pedagogy.

Generative Adversarial-Based Ubiquitous Data Integration Model for Human Re-Identification
Authors: Shabaz Mohammad , Soni Mukesh
Published: June 2024

Person re-identification is a crucial field in computer vision with significant challenges, including illumination, occlusion, pose variation, and feature variation in complex backgrounds. Traditional methods have limitations in addressing these issues. However, thanks to the advent of deep learning, new avenues have opened up, making it a hot topic in research. Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have gained immense popularity in recent years for their ability to overcome these challenges. With their potential, GANs offer a promising solution to help revolutionize the field of person re-identification. This paper introduces two innovative approaches that significantly improve the network's performance and efficiency. Firstly, a dual-stream network is proposed that integrates GANs to learn features from multi-modal images. This approach is a breakthrough in network structure. Secondly, an angle-based heterogeneous center triplet loss is presented which enhances clustering effects in the feature space and reduces the effect of outliers on paired distances, making it an excellent loss function. These approaches collectively provide a new angle to limit the feature space’s positive and negative tests, resulting in a highly efficient and effective network. This paper proposes a technique for learning discriminative pedestrian features while minimizing cross-modal differences. Our model optimizes results for pedestrian re-identification datasets like SYSU-MM01 and RegDB, using a vast collection of visible light and infrared photos of pedestrians taken from multiple cameras. Our ablation experiments show that the dual-stream network in this paper achieves a Rank-1 accuracy of 57.27% using the SYSU dataset in all-search mode, surpassing many existing works. This demonstrates that the dual-pooling fused features obtained from feature fusion in our technique are richer and more discriminative.

Education in Citizenship or Obedience? The Case of Post-Genocide Rwanda
Authors: Šmolík Vojtěch , Prouza Jan
Published: June 2024

Post-conflict reconstruction conventionally consists of four pillars—security, political, economic, and social. Ideally, all these pillars are interconnected and develop simultaneously to accelerate the reconstruction and make it stable. Rwanda undoubtedly succeeded in many aspects of its post-conflict reconstruction and it is no wonder that it is frequently presented as a model for other African countries recovering from an intrastate conflict. But is this portrayal real? Aren’t there hidden pitfalls which could, in a long-term perspective, reverse the reconstruction into destruction? This paper will address these questions from the very important but usually neglected perspective of the education system, which is an integral part of the social pillar of the reconstruction, and which is perceived as a prerequisite for the development of the country and the reconciliation of different social groups. Through field research conducted in primary schools in Rwanda, the paper suggests that the reform of education after the 1994 Rwandan genocide (and the curriculum in particular) has been politicized and serves as a tool of the current RPF regime, legitimizing its authoritarian practices to establish a uniform and obedient society.

Published: June 2024

This paper presents the research on the zygotes production, evaluation and transfer in Simmental and Kazakh whitehead cows and heifers, bred in the North-East of Kazakhstan. It was identified that, by applying the German drug «Pluset» in an optimal dose, the average numbers of embryos that can be recovered from the Simmental breed are 8,2 from a cow and 6,4 from a heifer. 66,0 % of embryos from cows were transferable, 17,0 % were non-transferable, 17,0 % of ovicells were unfertilized. Embryos recovered from heifers were identified as transferable 53,1 %, non-transferable 21,9 % and 25,0 % as unfertilized ovicells. The study showed that the embryos recovered from cows and heifers can be found in various stages of development: early morula, compact morula, early blastocyst, blastocyst, hatching and expanded blastocysts. A Kazakh whitehead cow produces 1,3 embryos more than a Simmental cow. The percentage of developed embryos was 45 % in total transplanted embryos. It was determined that the embryos transferred into heifers develop better than embryos transferred into mature cows.

Published: June 2024

In contemporary engineering practices, optimizing heat transfer efficiency in heat exchangers stands as a pivotal pursuit across numerous industrial sectors. This pursuit is underscored by the need to bolster performance metrics while maintaining or even reducing energy consumption. The study herein delves into a comprehensive analysis of the influence of magnetic fields on heat exchanger performance, a topic of growing interest due to its potential to revolutionize heat transfer methodologies.
In the realm of heat exchanger optimization, active techniques play a crucial role in enhancing heat transfer efficiency. Unlike passive methods, which rely solely on flow obstructions, active techniques harness external power sources to induce surface vibrations or generate electrical fields within the heat exchanger system. This study focuses exclusively on the analysis of active techniques, particularly the utilization of magnetic fields, to augment heat transfer performance. A number of researches are being carried out to improve the heat transfer rate of the heat exchanger. The investigation involves the integration of an electro-magnet and nano-particles into the heat exchanger setup, allowing for the precise modulation of magnetic fields within the fluid medium. Through systematic experimentation across varying Reynolds numbers, the impact of magnetic fields on heat transfer rates is meticulously examined and quantified.
Key findings from this study elucidate the efficacy of employing magnetic fields as an active technique to enhance heat transfer efficiency. Over here the readings are recorded for a predefined Reynolds number for the ease of comparison and study. Thus, the effect of nanofluid at varied concentrations at different Reynolds numbers was being recorded and analyzed

The integration of computer vision and machine literacy ways has paved the way for advanced vehicle model recognition and number plate recognition systems. This design presents an effective and robust frame for automatic vehicle model identification and number plate birth from images or videotape streams. Image Preprocessing: Raw input images are pre-processed to enhance their quality and reduce noise, icing better performance in posterior stages. Vehicle Discovery: exercising state- of- the- art object discovery algorithms similar as YOLO or Faster R- CNN, vehicles are detected within the input images or videotape frames. Vehicle Model Recognition: formerly vehicles are detected, a deep literacy- grounded classifier is employed to fete their make and model. This stage involves training a convolutional neural network (CNN) on a dataset having images of colourful vehicle models. Number Plate Recognition: uprooted number plate regions suffer optic character recognition (OCR) to decrypt the alphanumeric characters. The proposed system offers several advantages, including real- time processing capabilities, high delicacy in vehicle model recognition and number plate birth, and rigidity to different environmental conditions and vehicle types. Also, the system can be stationed in colourful operations similar as business operation, law enforcement, and parking systems, contributing to enhanced security and effectiveness in transportation systems.

Marriage law in the kingdom of SCS / Yugoslavia: the state of legislation and an attempt at reform
Authors: Ilić Simo
Published: June 2024

Upon unification, legal particularism was present in Yugoslavia among the six legal territories where pre-war law was in force. The situation was even more complex when it came to marriage law due to the additional legal particularism between the religious marriage laws of the six confessions. This article provides a summary of the condition of the state and religious legislation, focusing particularly on the outdated norms, further discussing the problems of legal insecurity and conflicting laws which stemmed from such a system. Among the professionals in this field, there was a general consensus that the current state of affairs was highly dysfunctional and that reforms were needed; however, there was no agreement on concrete solutions. The point of the argument concerned the extent of the influence that religious communities were to exert in the future system, and depending on that three models were proposed: mandatory church marriage, optional civil or church marriage, or mandatory civil marriage. Finally, the paper provides an overview of the moderate reform found in the Draft Civil Code, along with the reasons why it was never carried out. It analyses in particular the appropriation of foreign laws and the adequacy of the transplanted norms within the local legal system.

Authors: Sadiq Abubakar Chadi , Babangida Abubakar
Published: June 2024

This research is aimed at assessing the level of the heavy metals: Copper (Cu), Chromium (Cr), Cobalt (Co), Cadmium (Cd), Iron (Fe), lead (Pb), Nikel (Ni), Silver (Ag), Zinc (Zn), and Manganese (Mn) in some fish organs, water and sediment from Maladumba and Fada Darm Misau Local Government Area Bauchi State. The organs (gut, gills, liver and flesh) of Mudfish (Clariasanguillaris), Tilapia (Oreochromisniloticus), water and sediment were collected and prepared from two different sites. Prepared samples were digested using freshly prepared aqua Regia method with an acid mixture of (HNO3 + H2SO4 + HClO4) in the ratio (2:1:1). Analysis of the samples was done using Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS). This study revealed that majority of the sample analyzed contained Cd, Mn and Cu Concentration above WHO’S maximum permissible level of these metals, these result agrees with other finding reported from Sharada and Jakara Kano State, Nigeria. In this study Ag was not detected in all the samples, this may be due to the below detection limit of the analytical technique used. The high concentration of heavy metals obtained in this study may be due to Agricultural and Ceramic industrial activities within the study area. Results showed that the Fish from Maladumba And Fada Ponds may be consumed with the exception of Pb, Cd Mn and to some extent Cu, and Fe in Water, Sediment, and some fish organs that indicates above maximum permissible limits. To sustain a healthy freshwater ecosystem and prevent health problem to the locals, concentration of heavy metals should be monitored regularly. Appropriate measure such as legislative provision and other tools for effective and environmental monitoring should be mounted and used with a view to protecting and enhancing the better quality and resources of these Dams.

Published: June 2024

Still little has been said about the translation of the Latin treatise Rerum memorandarum libri by Francesco Petrarca, carried out by Giuseppe Fracassetti (1802-1883) in 1860 and remained incomplete and unpublished. Giuseppe Fracassetti was a lawyer, a historian, and a scholar from Fermo who published and translated, indeed, most Latin works of Petrarch — like a treatise entitled Della propria ed altrui ignoranza in 1858, the Latin Letters of Petrarch Familiari, (first in Latin edited in 1859-1863 and after in an Italian translation in 1863- 1867) and Senili (published in 1869-1870, only in Italian) – but he didn’t published his work about Rerum Memorandum Libri, his Libri delle cose memorabili. Fracassetti's editions about Petrarch are part of a cultural, political, and linguistic context of profound change, in which translations of the classics had a civil, as well as literary, value: starting from the reconstruction of the editorial process, circulation, and fortune of the published works, this thesis therefore proposes an in-depth review of Fracassetti’s autograph manuscripts kept in the homonymous archive of the “Spezioli” library of Fermo, documenting the translation. It also initiates a systematic investigation of the Latin sources used – and not declared – by the translator, starting with a comparison between the Latin marginalia he noted in the manuscript. This work intends to reveal this unpublished and incomplete translation (the work stops in fact at the third book) by accompanying it with a double-band apparatus to record the corrective stratigraphy of the papers and the author's annotations on the text (such as classical sources and doubts about the translation) with a focus also on the language used by Fracassetti, in keeping with the Italian prose of the time.

Seismically active regions present unique challenges for agricultural practices, particularly concerning Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) protocols for ensuring the safety and well-being of crops and livestock. This study aims to assess current agricultural practices in seismically active regions and propose enhancements to HSE protocols to mitigate risks associated with seismic events. The assessment will focus on understanding the vulnerabilities of agricultural systems to seismic activity, including the impact on soil stability, irrigation systems, and animal welfare. It will also consider the existing HSE protocols and their effectiveness in addressing seismic risks. By evaluating case studies and conducting field surveys, the study will identify best practices and technologies for enhancing HSE protocols in seismically active regions. Key areas of focus include soil management practices to improve soil stability and reduce the risk of landslides, retrofitting of infrastructure such as barns and storage facilities to withstand seismic forces, and implementing early warning systems for farmers to protect livestock during seismic events. Additionally, the study will explore the role of insurance and financial mechanisms in mitigating the economic impact of seismic events on agricultural operations. The findings of this study are expected to contribute to the development of guidelines and recommendations for enhancing HSE protocols in seismically active regions, thereby improving the resilience of agricultural systems to seismic risks. This research is crucial for ensuring the sustainability and safety of agricultural practices in areas prone to seismic activity, ultimately safeguarding food security and livelihoods in these regions.

Vaccination is the process of entering vaccines to stimulate the body's immune system, as a preventive effort in reducing morbidity and mortality caused by the coronavirus. Putri Hijau Hospital in Medan City, which participated in the second dose of Covid-19 vaccination, confirmed that the respondents who were still affected by Covid-19 needed to be developed, so in particular knowing the number of cases of Covid-19 that appeared in respondents who had been infected. received a second dose of vaccination. The purpose of this study was to see whether there was a relationship between vaccination and the incidence of Covid-19 at Putri Hijau Hospital in Medan.This type of research uses a quantitative approach method by using a questionnaire distributed through the Google Form platform on a smartphone to store all the answers that have been filled in by the respondent based on the questionnaire guidelines that have been made previously with the target of respondents who have vaccinated the second dose of Covid-19.The results showed that from 100 respondents there were 28 male patients (28%) and 72 female patients (72%). Judging from the age of most patients at the age of 15 to 25 years. There were 8 people and 92 people who were not exposed. With the symptoms of Covid-19, such as fever, cough, sore throat, and loss of sense of smell. This is because the respondents had antibodies that were formed slightly after vaccination, were active outside the home, did not apply health protocols and maintained their immune system so that they were exposed to Covid-19.

Abstract. Lake Taihu is the largest eutrophic lake in China that is shallow and connected to a dense river network. Severe eutrophication is frequently observed in Lake Taihu due to excess pollutant loadings. Understanding water cycle dynamics is essential for investigating this problem. The travel time distribution (TTD), residence time distribution (RTD) and storage selection (SAS) function describing how water is stored, mixed and released in the lake provide fundamental information on water cycle dynamics. In this study, a rainfall mixing model is established and coupled with the age master equation model to estimate the time-variant TTDs and RTDs of rainwater, river water and all water in Lake Taihu based on the two-year high-resolution isotopic data. In the rainfall mixing model, a novel rainfall mixing factor is introduced to quantify the mixing of rainwater with older lake water. The estimated range of travel time varies between 2–4 months and 7–9 months, depending on lake volume. Lake Taihu shows an inverse storage effect, i.e., the release preference shifts toward younger water when lake volume is large. The results of rainfall mixing model reveal distinct patterns and control factors between the TTDs of rainwater and river water, with rainwater contributing to 15 %–25 % of outflow. Then, the SAS functions of rainwater and river water are analyzed, which are controlled by different source zones and flow patterns. Temporal variation of spatial distribution of deuterium isotope composition illustrates storage release preference is controlled by the variation of horizontal flow paths and velocities in the lake.

Abstract. The major goal of this work is to provide an insight into the structural anatomy of the Pyrenees based on the magnetic data from the Earth Magnetic Anomaly Grid 2-arc-minute resolution (EMAG2v2). We focused on providing qualitative and semi-quantitative evidence on the magnetic signature of the Pyrenees Mountain Range domains and structures. The integration of reduced to the pole and processed maps, as well as the Bouguer anomaly map with geological data, has proved to be significantly useful in order to shed light on the main anomaly sources. Considering their magnetic response and texture, several anomalies can be linked to buried geological bodies or changes in the magnetic character of the basement. We have estimated their source bodies depth through Euler and power spectrum calculations. We have identified eight magnetic zones with different features and interpreted them in terms of the geological and structural setting of the area. The result is an overall interpretation of the Pyrenees main magnetic domains.

Abstract. We present a 14-year 12-km hourly air quality dataset created by assimilating satellite observations of aerosol optical depth (AOD) and carbon monoxide (CO) in an air quality model to fill gaps in the contiguous United States (CONUS) air quality monitoring network and help air quality managers understand long-term changes in county level air quality. Specifically, we assimilate the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) AOD and the Measurement of Pollution in the Troposphere (MOPITT) CO observations in the Community Multiscale Air Quality Model (CMAQ) every day from 01 Jan 2005 to 31 Dec 2018 to produce this dataset. The Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model simulated meteorological fields are used to drive CMAQ offline and to generate meteorology dependent anthropogenic emissions. Both the weather and air quality (surface fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and ozone) simulations are subjected to a comprehensive evaluation against multi-platform observations to establish the credibility of our dataset and characterize its uncertainties. We show that our dataset captures regional hourly, seasonal, and interannual variability in meteorology very well across the CONUS. The correlation coefficient between the observed and simulated surface ozone and PM2.5 concentrations for different Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defined regions across CONUS are 0.77–0.91 and 0.49–0.79, respectively. The mean bias and root mean squared error for modeled ozone are 3.7–6.8 ppbv and 7–9 ppbv, respectively, while the corresponding values for PM2.5 are -0.9–5.6 µg/m3 and 3.0–8.3 µg/m3, respectively. We estimate that annual CONUS averaged maximum daily 8-hour average (MDA8) ozone and PM2.5 trends are -0.30 ppb/year and -0.24 μg/m3/year, respectively. Wintertime MDA8 ozone shows an increasing but statistically insignificant trend at several sites. We also found a decreasing trend in the 95th percentile of MDA8 ozone but an increasing trend in the 5th percentile. Most of the sites in the Pacific Northwest show an increasing but statistically insignificant trend during summer. An ArcGIS air quality dashboard has been developed to enable easy visualization and interpretation of county level air quality measures and trends by stakeholders, and a Python-based Streamlit application has been developed to allow the download of the air quality data in simplified text and graphic formats.
