Authors: Bastos Manuela , Macena Jeniffer , Bernardo João , Melo Rafaela , Pessoa Marcela , Pires Fernanda
Published: March 2024

A literatura do Brasil desempenha um papel crucial na consolidação da identidade nacional. Desse modo, se faz crucial estimular o interesse em obras clássicas, sobretudo dos estudantes. Este trabalho introduz Yerê e a Ilha Precisa, um jogo educacional de RPG desenvolvido para dispositivos móveis, destinado a facilitar a compreensão da literatura pelos estudantes do Ensino Médio. Explorando os conceitos do movimento literário do Romantismo no Brasil em suas três fases românticas, o jogo é fundamentado na Teoria Construtivista de Piaget (1973). A jornada de Yerê consiste em enfrentar desafios e desvendar enigmas em três níveis, cada uma centrada em uma fase específica do Romantismo brasileiro.
Uma Proposta para Modelagem de Ecossistemas Educacionais a partir de Experiências de Aprendizagem ao Longo da Vida
Authors: Beltrame Walber A. R. , Tamariz Annabell D.R.
Published: March 2024

A utilização de ambientes virtuais de aprendizagem está se tornando cada vez mais comum entre educadores, gestores, famílias e alunos a partir da tendência da cultura digital. Os ecossistemas educacionais desenvolvem-se como resultado da utilização desses ambientes, evoluindo para um novo paradigma baseado na aprendizagem ao longo da vida, em espaços informais e não formais, de forma híbrida, presencial e não presencial, utilizando múltiplas tecnologias, incluindo celulares, ambientes imersivos, realidade aumentada e internet das coisas. Durante esse processo, as reações emocionais e cognitivas determinam se essas experiências são positivas ou desfavoráveis em relação às habilidades e competências. O objetivo deste estudo é propor um modelo de experiências de aprendizagem ao longo da vida que pode ser usado para orientar ecossistemas educacionais, com atividades didaticamente embasadas.

Authors: Andrade Juliana Cristina dos Santos de , Oliveira Márcia Gonçalves de , Battetin Vanessa
Published: March 2024

A aprendizagem em ambientes online, especificamente em MOOCs, demandam que os alunos sejam autônomos e criem seu próprio caminho de aprendizagem com pouca ou nenhuma tutoria para ajudá-los, ou seja, os estudantes precisam ser capazes de autorregular sua aprendizagem. Diante disto, a proposta deste estudo é desenvolver um software educacional para apoiar a aprendizagem autorregulada (ARA) de estudantes de MOOCs por meio de um painel para visualização de informações de aprendizagem para a plataforma de cursos abertos do Ifes. Há evidências na literatura que apontam a utilização de painel de análise de aprendizagem como um fator promissor para apoiar a ARA no contextos de MOOCs.

Arnold Schönbergs Streichquartett op. 7
Authors: Petersen Peter
Published: March 2024

Arnold Schönberg's String Quartet op. 7 is one of the most demanding chamber music works of the late Romantic period. The monograph by Hamburg musicologist Peter Petersen approaches the work from three directions: (1) themes and motifs are identified, whereby a theme unmentioned by the composer comes to light; (2) the course of the quartet movement is analyzed in terms of music dramaturgy, thus expanding the aspect of the four-movement structure in the single-movement structure; (3) the now well-known program of a love story, which Schönberg concealed, is examined in terms of its aesthetic relevance to the work as a whole – with the result that it only partially steered the course of the composition, but gave direction to the musical imagination.
Dachkammerdichtungen
Authors: Luckscheiter Christian
Published: March 2024

Was weiß und vermutet die Literatur über die Dachkammer? Der Versuch einer Antwort hat ein Auswahlproblem, denn die Dachkammer ist ein geradezu inflationär auftretender literarischer Topos. Am Anfang dieser einen Mansardenliteraturgeschichte lässt Jean-Baptiste Louis Gresset 1734 seinen Protagonisten in einer Mansarde vis-à-vis der Sorbonne eine Republik der Vernunft gründen. An ihrem Ende, knapp 250 Jahre später, versucht Jean Amérys Antiheld Lefeu, von seiner von Abriss bedrohten Mansarde aus, das Paris der Fünften Republik anzuzünden. Die literarischen Dachkammern sind aber nicht nur Schauplatz einer Dialektik der Aufklärung. Sie sind zugleich Bühnen einer Art subversiven Welttheaters, auf denen Grenzen überschritten werden – traditionellerweise zur Welt der Götter und Musen, nicht selten jedoch auch zu Welten des Elends und des Inhumanen.

Meningioma is the most common type of primary brain tumor, accounting for approximately 30% of all brain tumors. Anterior skull base meningiomas represent 8.8% of all meningiomas. They can be in olfactory groove, planum sphenoidale, or tuberculum sellae region. Their approach is challenging, tuberculum-planum sphenoidale meningiomas are a subgroup that can be approached and resected by using an endoscopic endonasal corridor. The complex anatomy in relation to important neurovascular structures poses difficulties in the resection of these lesions endonasally. Moreover, surgically created skull base defect closure is crucial for prevention of CSF leaks. In this chapter, the technical nuances and outcome of this approach are described.
Transnasal Endoscopic Pituitary Surgery: Indications, Technique, and Complications
Authors: Abdullah Nazik , Osman Haytham , Ibrahim Honida , Elzein Khalid , Awad Ali
Published: March 2024

Pituitary neoplasm is the commonest sellar pathology, where pituitary adenoma heads the list, it accounts for 25% of all intracranial neoplasm. Although it is a benign lesion in most cases is located in a complex region; adjacent to important structures: optic chiasm, internal carotid arteries, suprasellar cistern, and cavernous sinuses, it presents with a variety of clinical scenarios. The Sella is situated at the center of the skull base, this made surgical access via craniotomy very challenging and is associated with considerable morbidity. Transnasal endoscopic pituitary surgery (TEPS) evolved rapidly, almost replacing the craniotomy approach, because it is minimally invasive and gives direct sellar access with excellent visualization. On the other hand, the learning curve of TEPS requires meticulous training to acquire surgical skills. Indications of TEPS, technique, complications, their prevention, and management are described. The multidisciplinary approach in managing pituitary adenoma is addressed, where a team of an endocrinologist, neurosurgeon, otolaryngologist, ophthalmologist, anesthesiologist, and neuroradiologist decide on a management plan for patients. Other disciplines share management of certain cases that is Oncologist, ICU specialists, and obstetrician. Long term follow-up is required by endocrinologists whereas revision surgery is considered in some patients.
Importance of Araucariaceae for plantation development in Papua New Guinea
Authors: Kumuli Gusamo Benson
Published: March 2024

This article reviews the potential of Araucaria hunsteinii, Araucaria cunninghamii, and Agathis robusta for developing plantations in Papua New Guinea (PNG). The species are propagated from recalcitrant (A. hunsteinii) and orthodox (A. cunninghamii and A. robusta) seeds. The viable seeds are extracted from ripened cones and kept in controlled rooms to maintain seed quality. The seeds are raised in nurseries for seedlings and transplanted in the field. The Bulolo and Wau plantations (PNG) are managed on a 30–40-year cutting cycle. Silviculturally, a 3 × 4 m spacing (12 m2/tree) is applied with 833 trees/ha as initial stocking. Tending is executed in the initial stages and two medium- to high-intensity thinning operations are employed to boost the growth of residual stands. Also, synthetic fertilizers and termiticides are applied to enhance plant growth and control termite infestation in young plantations, respectively. Next, non-commercial (low) thinning is scheduled at 5–7 years with 416 stems/ha stocking (estimated volume 5.522 m3/ha) followed by commercial (crown) thinning conducted at 17–20 years with 208 stems/ha stocking (estimated volume 17.790 m3/ha). The 208 stems/ha is maintained as final crops up to 30–40 years with expected 30.206 m3 volume.
Advancing Ethics-led Administrative Discretion in Public Administration: A South African Perspective
Authors: Mofuoa Khali
Published: March 2024

The chapter explores how South African Batho Pele ethics-led frame of discretion can enable future public administrators in an administrative state to better understand administrative discretion and effectively manage it. It is based on secondary data from the available literature against the South African post-1994 efforts to tame its inherited ethically barren apartheid administrative discretion in the practice of public administration towards building a capable, ethical, and developmental state. The findings show that the ethically barren apartheid administrative discretion posed a challenge to the new ethically attuned democratic South Africa’s practice of public administration. They further highlight that indeed the lack of ethics consciousness in discretion in the practice of public administration presents a challenge for public administrators in an administrative state. The challenge is how could public administrators use their discretion ethically in the practice of public administration? For public administrators in an administrative state, the tension between moving in a spirited way in decision-making and remaining sensible is a real problem of how to exercise one’s discretion in the practice of public administration in an ethically conscious way.
Nature as a Wellbeing Predictor: Perceptions and Guidelines to Enhance Ecosocial Intervention with Older People
Authors: Luz Helena , Nunes Vanessa
Published: March 2024

Western societies are experiencing a reconfiguration of their demographics expressed in an increasingly aging population. A crucial element for one’s well-being results from the interaction with multiple life events, suggesting that engagement with nature can stimulate well-being in older adults and that knowledge about interventions that enhance this relationship must be deepen. The study sought to understand the relationship between well-being and nature based on the perspective of older adults and to map strategies highlighted by experts and professionals in the field of aging, which facilitate the apprehension of nature’s dimension for supporting ecosocial practices of social workers. For so, a qualitative exploratory study was developed based on 10 interviews with older people conducted in a “go along” format method and an online focus group with 8 participants (experts and professionals).
Pleuroparenchymal Fibroelastosis and Serositis as Pleural Complications after Hematopoietic Stem Cell and Lung Transplantation
Authors: Arndt Pat
Published: March 2024

Pulmonary complications after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and lung transplantation involve both infectious and non-infectious etiologies. Although infectious complications are much more common, with literature describing their clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatments, and outcome, the non-infectious complications are less well understood. The overall incidence of non-infectious complications after transplantation is much less frequent, and in some instances is rare. Another challenge with the non-infectious complications is that there are no key biomarkers for establishing a diagnosis, with the need to rely on clinical symptoms and radiologic findings. Treatments are generally non-existent or are empiric in nature. Another important feature of the non-infectious complications is that they are generally chronic in duration and are associated with high rates of mortality as well as morbidity, with a significant effect on patients’ quality of life. An understanding of the pleural associated pulmonary complications after HSCT and lung transplantation is necessary for pulmonologists, transplant physicians, and Internal/Family medicine providers. Improvement in the knowledge of underlying mechanisms for pleural based pulmonary complications after HSCT and lung transplantation are drastically needed design of targeted therapies for treatment. In this review, we will discuss the post-transplant pleural based complications of serositis and pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis.
Hemodynamic Analysis of Carotid Sinus with OpenFOAM and Machine Learning
Authors: Kucur Murad , Körbahti Banu , Onur Balkanay Ozan
Published: March 2024

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) shows promise in aiding clinical methods in the early detection of atherosclerosis when combined with currently popular machine learning algorithms. In this study, fluid-structure interaction (FSI) analysis of the carotid artery was performed by creating three-dimensional patient-specific pre-operation carotid artery models of four different patients which have vessel stenosis or aneurysms. As a result of numerical simulations, the average flow velocity and average pressure of the patients at 80 specific cross-sections were obtained. The simulation results of three patients’ pre-operation were used for learning in the machine learning algorithm. The training data consists of 80% of the numerical values, while the remaining 20% is used for testing. Then, the algorithm was asked to predict the flow velocity values at different cross-sections of the artery. The values obtained as a result of learning were compared with those obtained from numerical simulation. We found the results promising in terms of guiding the clinical decisions.
Term of Office of Constitutional Judges and Its Implications for the Independence of Judicial Power
Authors: Dewi Andriani
Published: March 2024

This paper analyzes the implications of the term of office of constitutional judges in relation to the principle of independence of judicial power. Constitutional justices have a five-year term of office and can only be re-elected for one further term. This provision has been tried to be corrected through a request for judicial review of the Constitutional Court (MK) Law, but there is no Constitutional Court decision stating that the term of office of constitutional judges is contrary to the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. Determining the term of office of constitutional judges has implications for the independence of judicial power. The existence of a second period or renewable term will open up opportunities for political influence in the appointment of constitutional judges for the second period, thereby reducing the independence of judicial power. The elimination of the second period as approved by the legislators has positive implications for the independence of judicial power, but needs to be accompanied by improvements to the selection and supervision mechanism for constitutional judges. The Third Amendment to the Constitutional Court Law also regulates the selection process, but only states the principles and leaves further regulations to each state institution.

Çocukluğun çeşitli tanımları olmakla beraber BM Çocuk hakları sözleşmesi 1. Maddesinde, kişinin 18 yaşına gelinceye kadarki yaşam süresini ele almaktadır. Bu neticede hukuksal olarak reşit kılınması haricinde 18 yaşından küçük her fert bizim için çocuk tanımlaması içerisindedir. Çocukluk biyolojik, psikolojik ve sosyal olarak karmaşık gelişimsel süreçleri barındırmaktadır. Yaşanılan çevrenin fiziksel gelişimi etkilediği veya ruh halinin sosyal çevreyle etkileşimi kısıtladığı durumlar görülebilmektedir. Bu anlamda çocuğun sağlıklı olarak gelişimini tamamlayabilmesi için bu etkenler üzerine odaklanılmalıdır. Atatürk’ün çocuklar için söylediği ‘’Sizler hepiniz geleceğin bir gülü, yıldızı ve ikbal ışığısınız. ‘’ sözünden de hareketle çocuklara ulusun geleceği olduğu atfedilmektedir. Toplum nüfusunda ve toplumun bakış açısında önemli yer edinen çocukların yapabilirliklerini ve verimli birey olabilmeleri noktasında ailelerin olduğu kadar politika üreticilerinin, yönetimlerin de sorumluluk alması beklenmektedir. Bu kesimin korunma, desteklenme, gelişme ve var olma ihtiyacına yönelik sistemlerin oluşturulması gerekmektedir. Diğer bir anlatımla toplum içerisinde çocukların dezavantajlı olduğu da göz önüne alınarak haklarının korunup gözetilmesi ve ilgili çalışmaların yapılması yönetimlerce mümkündür. Çalışmada, yerel yönetim birimlerinden olan Samsun İlçe belediyelerinin yapmış olduğu çocuklara yönelik sosyal hizmet faaliyetleri incelenerek, uygulamaları değerlendirilecektir. Çalışmanın amacı, çocuk çalışmalarında iyi uygulama örnekleri ile bu örneklerle yerel yönetim sisteminin gelişmesidir. Bu çalışma kapsamında kentleşme ve çocuk kavramları üzerinden kentleşmenin ortaya çıkardığı sonuçlar doğrultusunda çocuğun mevcut durumuna belediyelerin yaklaşımı ele alınacaktır. Belediyelerin hizmetlerinin işlevselliğine dair analiz gerçekleştirilerek Türkiye’nin neredeyse 3’te 1’ini oluşturan ( TÜİK, 2022 : %26.5) çocuklara yönelik Samsun ilçe belediyelerinin faaliyetlerin tanıtımı ile akademisyenlerin ve uygulamacıların dikkatini çekmesi beklenmektedir.
Diversity Writing: Natural Languages, Authentic Voices
Authors: Marzluf Phillip P.
Published: March 2024

Though diversity serves as a valuable source for rhetorical inquiry, expressivist instructors who privilege diversity writing may also overemphasize the essential authenticity of their students’ vernaculars. This romantic and salvationist impulse reveals the troubling implications of eighteenth-century Natural Language Theory and may, consequently, lead to exoticizing and stereotyping students’ linguistic performances.
