Authors: Quiroga Bonilla Abraham
Published: July 2023

Al hablar de las Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación se puede encontrar una amplia literatura sobre ella, pero también se debe tomar en cuenta que su aplicación en el campo educativo no ha sido amplia. Es por ello por lo que el propósito de este ensayo científico es ofrecer algunos tics para estudiantes de 5to año de derecho de la Universidad Autónoma “Gabriel René Moreno”. La metodología empleada fue un estudio de revisión, basado en análisis teórica y comparada con la experiencia del autor. En conclusión, se pudo determinar que Las TIC por sí solas no cumplen un fin educativo, para lograr esto se tiene que implementar estrategias metodológicas que propicien el uso adecuado de las TIC dentro del proceso de enseñanza aprendizaje. Al usar las Tics para los estudiantes de 5to año, se consigue una mayor motivación en los estudiantes y docentes. Se fortalece la capacidad de interrelación personal para la formación de trabajo en equipo. Se facilita el trabajo en aula y el alcance de los objetivos pedagógicos. Se pasa de un aprendizaje regular a un aprendizaje significativo en los estudiantes del quinto año de derecho.
UJI PEMAHAMAN KONSEP MAHASISWA PENDIDIKAN BIOLOGI PADA MATERI FISIKA DASAR DENGAN SOAL KONTEKSTUAL DAN NONKONTEKSTUAL
Authors: Fatimah Fita , Ulfa Noviana Mariatul
Published: July 2023

Fisika berasal dari bahasa Yunani yang berarti “alam”. Fokus dari ilmu fisika adalah mempelajari tentang sifat dan fenomena alam atau gejala alam dan seluruh interaksi yang terjadi didalamnya. Fisika berperan dalam berbagai ilmu pengetahuan lain, salah satunya biologi (biofisika). Hasil wawancara awal menunjukkan bahwa banyak yang masih menganggap fisika itu sulit dan tidak ada kaitannya dengan biologi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui tingkat pemahaman konsep mahasiswa Program Studi Pendidikan Biologi pada materi Fisika Dasar yang disajikan dalam soal versi kontekstual dan nonkontekstual serta  mengetahui tanggapan mereka terhadap terhadap asesmen pemahaman konsep fisika soal “kontekstual” dan “nonkontekstual”. Instrumen yang digunakan dalam penelitian adalah instrumen berupa soal-soal pemahaman konsep fisika yang disusun dalam versi kontekstual dan nonkontekstual serta  instrumen angket untuk menjaring tanggapan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa : 1) Secara umum pemahaman konsep mahasiswa program studi pendidikan biologi pada materi fisika dasar masih rendah baik dalam soal-soal versi kontekstual maupun nonkontekstual; 2) Kemampuan pemahaman konsep mahasiswa program studi pendidikan biologi pada materi fisika dasar lebih tinggi untuk soal versi kontekstual dibandingkan soal versi nonkontekstual; 3) penyajian soal-soal  pemahaman  konsep  dalam versi  “kontekstual” dapat mengubah  persepsi  mahasiswa  tentang fisika  yang  awalnya merupakan  mata kuliah  yang  tidak  berkaitan  dengan  biologi  menjadi  fisika sebagai  mata  kuliah  yang  diperlukan  dalam biologi. Hal ini menjadi motivasi bagi mahasiswa dalam mempelajari fisika untuk  meningkatkan  penguasaan  mereka  terhadap pengetahuan  atau  fenomena  yang  dipelajari  dalam  biologi.

Strategy Generation for Risk Minimization of Renewable Energy Technology Investments in Hospitals with SF TOP-DEMATEL Methodology
Authors: Dincer Hasan , Eti Serkan , Yuksel Serhat , Gokalp Yasar , Celebi Busra
Published: July 2023

Effective risk management plays an important role to improve renewable energy technology investments. Because of this issue, necessary actions must be implemented to effectively manage these risks. However, having high costs is the biggest disadvantage of the implementation of these actions. Therefore, it is not financially possible to implement different strategies together. In other words, it is necessary to identify the most important of these strategies. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to make a priority evaluation for the risk strategies related to renewable energy technologies in hospitals. For this purpose, a new model is generated with spherical fuzzy (SF) TOP-DEMATEL technique. In this process, significant indicators are defined based on literature evaluations. In the next process, the weights of these indicators are calculated. The main contribution of this study is that a new technique is proposed by the name of TOP-DEMATEL. In this scope, the final steps of TOPSIS are integrated to the analysis process of DEMATEL to overcome criticisms for classical DEMATEL technique. Moreover, a priority evaluation is carried out to understand the most critical risk management strategies in renewable energy technology investments. With the help of this analysis, it can be much easier to take risk management actions without having financial difficulties. It is determined that the weighting results of the criteria are quite similar for different t values. This situation identifies that the proposed model provides coherent and reliable results. It is concluded that government support is the most important strategy in this context. Additionally, technological improvements also play a crucial role for this situation. It is strongly recommended that governments should establish appropriate legal and regulatory frameworks to promote renewable energy projects. These frameworks can facilitate the financing and licensing of projects and offer economic incentives such as tax incentives and subsidies.

How can a corpus analysis tool help describe mentalizing skills in the speech of individuals with schizophrenia?
Authors: Egyed Csilla , Fekete Judit , Herold Róbert , Hambuch Anikó
Published: July 2023

Individuals with schizophrenia reportedly exhibit severe speech and mentalizing difficulties. The study of schizophrenic speech is a multifaceted research field, including a functional linguistic approach. In order to understand the nature of patients’ linguistic dysfunction, the primary task is to identify the occurrence of linguistic disturbances during mentalizing processes. The study being part of an interdisciplinary research is based on guided interviews related to Hemingway’s short story entitled The End of Something, and it primarily focuses on identifying and classifying mental state language reflecting mentalizing processes. The present corpus includes 20 guided patient interviews which were digitally recorded and transcribed. The qualitative analysis targeting the description and classification of recurring mental state language patterns related to mentalizing skills was performed with the help of the Sketch Engine corpus analysis tool. The program assisted in the identification and classification of collocations associated with the interviewees’ mental processes. The results suggest that the language use of individuals with schizophrenia reflects mild microlinguistic impairments but more severe dysfunctions at the macrolinguistic level. Hopefully, the findings can offer some possible indications for psychotherapists on how to detect and interpret characteristic linguistic impairments and improve mentalizing capacities in this patient group.
Online oktatás és vizsgák a világjárvány alatt a pécsi orvostanhallgatók szemszögéből
Authors: Dávidovics Anna
Published: July 2023

A COVID világjárvány alapjaiban változtatta meg mindennapjainkat a maszkviseléstől a távolságtartáson át a kijárási korlátozásokig. Ezen intézkedések célja az volt, hogy minimalizálják az emberek közötti fizikai érintkezést, ezáltal korlátozva a vírus terjedését. A felsőoktatásban az egyetemek is hasonló lépéseket tettek a hallgatók és dolgozók biztonsága érdekében. 2020 áprilisában a Pécsi Tudományegyetem Orvostudományi Karán (PTE ÁOK) is látogatási tilalom lépett érvénybe, a kar pedig átállt az online oktatásra, óriási változásokat hozva a hallgatók és az oktatók életébe. A 2019/20 tavaszi és a 2020/21 őszi szemeszterben vegyes módszerű kutatást végeztünk interjúk és egy online kérdőív felhasználásával azzal a céllal, hogy összegyűjtsük és értékeljük az orvostanhallgatók online oktatással és vizsgákkal kapcsolatos véleményét és meglátásait. Az interjú során összesen 15 külföldi és magyar hallgatót kérdeztünk meg, a kérdőívre pedig 105 hallgató válaszolt, így kvalitatív és kvantitatív adatok is rendelkezésünkre álltak. Az eredmények azt mutatták, hogy bár a hallgatók összességében elégedettek voltak az online oktatással, a legtöbb diáknak hiányzott a személyes kontaktus, ezért előnyben részesítenék a hibrid oktatást, azaz a jelenléti órákat online elemekkel kiegészítő tanulási környezetet.
Hogyan feleljünk meg a 21. század munkaerőpiaci kihívásainak a felnőttek idegen nyelvi képzésében?
Authors: Czellér Mária , Nagyné Bodnár Klára , Domonyi Renáta
Published: July 2023

Felgyorsult világunkban az aktuális igényekhez alkalmazkodva a nyelvoktatási gyakorlatok bizonyos elemei hamar elavulttá válnak. Ezért is kiemelten fontos szerepe van a nyelvtanárok folyamatos önképzésének és a szervezett továbbképzéseknek. A tanulmány célja, hogy bemutasson egy megvalósult Erasmus+ felnőtt tanulási mobilitási pályázatot, amely elsődlegesen a felnőtt tanulók nyelvtanulását kívánta segíteni a nyelvtanárok mobilitása során elsajátított, s később alkalmazott új módszerek segítségével. A tanulmányutak azzal a céllal valósulnak meg, hogy a nyelvtanárok nemzetközi kitekintést szerezzenek, új nyelvi, módszertani és technológiai ismeretekre tegyenek szert, továbbá más országokban jól bevált gyakorlatokat sajátítsanak el és építsenek be saját munkájukba, illetve azokat továbbfejlesztve, nyelvtanulóik igényeire adaptálva hatékonyabbá tegyék az idegen nyelv elsajátításának folyamatát. A projekt során (melynek futamideje a pandémia miatt kitolódott) folyamatosan vizsgáltuk és rögzítettük, hogy a mobilitás milyen mértékben felelt meg nyelvtanáraink igényeinek, és mint eszköz mennyiben járult hozzá céljaik eléréséhez. Jelen tanulmány rávilágít továbbá arra is, hogy a megszerzett kompetenciák, innovatív módszerek hogyan épülnek be a napi gyakorlatba, amelynek speciális aktualitást adott az online oktatásra való kényszerű áttérés.
Kihívások egy különleges műfaj, a kiállításmegnyitók tolmácsolása során
Authors: Lakatos-Báldy Zsuzsanna
Published: July 2023

Jelen tanulmány részben a szerző azon korábbi kutatásainak folytatásaként született, amelyek a retorikai és stílusjegyek felismerésének és alkalmazásának szükségességét vizsgálták a tolmács számára. Ezek az ismeretek és készségek kritikusak a kulturális reáliák és a kulturális beágyazottság értelmezésében és közvetítésében is a nagyon sajátos műfajt képviselő kiállításmegnyitó beszédek tolmácsolásakor. A beszédstruktúrák, amelyek sokszor a klasszikus retorikai kereteket követik, segítenek bizonyos mértékig megkönnyíteni ezeknek az elemeknek a felismerését és azonosítását – ha a tolmács rendelkezik a szükséges ismeretekkel. Azonban a képzőművészeti kiállításmegnyitók esetében a tolmácsolás egyedülállóan bonyolult és sokoldalú kihívást jelent. Bár a tolmácsolási folyamat néhány szempontból hasonlít a szónoki beszédek fordításához, ezek a szövegek sokszor eltérnek a hagyományos retorikai formátumtól. A klasszikus retorikai elemek jelenléte mellett, ezek a szövegek gazdagok művészeti, történelmi, művészettörténeti referenciákban, művészeti korokra utalásokban, és számos más kulturális hivatkozásban, ideértve a kevésbé ismert kulturális reáliák használatát is. Ez a komplexitás nagy feladat elé állítja a tolmácsot. A jelen tanulmány célja, hogy betekintést nyújtson ebbe a bonyolult folyamatba, új szempontokat nyújtva a művészeti kiállításmegnyitók kontextusában végzett tolmácsolás kihívásainak és stratégiáinak vizsgálatához.
Empátia online
Authors: Szalai-Szolcsányi Judit , Warta Vilmos , Eklics Kata
Published: July 2023

Az empátia kiemelt szerepet játszik az orvos–beteg együttműködésben, ezért elengedhetetlen, hogy az empatikus kommunikáció fejlesztése már az orvostanhallgatók képzése során megvalósuljon. Ehhez a leghatékonyabb módszer a valódi orvos–beteg szituációhoz hasonló helyzetek szimulációs gyakorlása. Az interakciók során alkalmazott empatikus kommunikáció nagymértékben elősegíti a terápiás együttműködést, a megértést. Ezért esett választásunk olyan érzelmileg komoly kihívást jelentő helyzetek vizsgálatára, amelyekben nagy szerepe van az empátiának, így a meggyőzést, ellenállást, valamint a rossz hír közlését gyakoroltató szituációkra. Az „Empatikus és asszertív kommunikáció a klinikai gyakorlatban” kurzust 2021 tavaszán a pandémia miatt online formában tudtuk megvalósítani. Tanulmányunkban arra keressük a választ, hogy ha a konzultáció az orvos–beteg között személyes jelenléttel kivitelezhetetlen és a kommunikációs csatorna az online formára korlátozódik, milyen nyelvi eszközei, lehetőségei vannak egy orvosnak, hogy a sikeres terápia érdekében az empatikus kommunikációt maximálisan megvalósíthassa. Kérdésként merül fel, hogy vajon csökken-e a kommunikáció hatékonysága vagy újabb lehetőségeket adhat az online tér. Gyakorlataink során azt vizsgáltuk, hogy az orvostanhallgatók milyen nyelvi eszközökkel tudják megvalósítani az empatikus kommunikációt, milyen nem-verbális és verbális interakció jöhet létre egy ilyen speciális helyzetben.
Angolul vagy spanyolul? A spanyol startup világ nyelvezete
Authors: Jámbor Emőke
Published: July 2023

A spanyol nyelvben, úgy, mint más nyelvek esetében az első anglicizmusok idegenül hatottak, de az egyre gyakoribb használat következtében, az élet számos területén a spanyol beszélők hozzászoktak az új terminusokhoz. Szükség volt-e, szükség van-e arra, hogy „spanyolosítsák” ezeket a szavakat, kifejezéseket? Egyes szerzők szerint pl. gazdasági területen, a felhasználók nem tartották fontosnak, hogy az angol kifejezést helyettesítsék annak spanyol változatával. (Vaquero, 1999; Bolaños, 2010) Véleményük szerint fordítás nélkül egyértelműbb a fogalom jelentése. A gazdasági területen belül a startupok nyelvezete még specifikusabb. Vagyis, ha egy gazdasági szakember „startup nyelvileg” felkészületlenül vesz részt egy startupos megbeszélésen, akkor a felét sem érti a diskurzusnak, annak ellenére, hogy a gazdaságban használt terminusokkal tisztában van. Kutatásomban arra kerestem a választ, hogy az interneten megtalálható spanyol startup glosszáriumok hogyan készítik fel a startupokkal foglalkozó befektetőket és leendő szakembereket erre a speciális szókincsre. A vizsgált online szótárakat a mikro- és a makro- struktúra alapján mutatjuk be. A glosszáriumokban található forrásnyelvi és célnyelvi terminusokat, magyarázatok és példák segítségével kategorizáljuk.
Transzverzális készségek fejlesztése idegennyelvi képzésben: egy angol-holland összehasonlítás
Authors: Cseppentő Krisztina
Published: July 2023

A transzverzális készségek egyre fontosabb szerepet töltenek be a munkaerőpiacon, így ma már a felsőoktatás kiemelt feladatai közé tartozik a szakmai ismeretek átadása mellett ezeknek a készségeknek a fejlesztése is. A Világgazdasági Fórum Future of Jobs Report (2020) című jelentése is felhívja a figyelmet arra, hogy az elkövetkezendő időszakban ezek a készségek egyre jobban felértékelődnek majd, aminek eredményeként a következő évtizedben a jelenleg munkaerőpiacon lévő munkavállalók jelentős részének át kell majd képeznie magát. A tanulmány ezért először meghatározza a transzverzális készségek fogalmát, illetve bemutatja, hogy az utóbbi évtizedben hogyan változott ezek jelentősége a piacon. Ezt követően azt vizsgálja, hogy a nyilvánosan elérhető dokumentumok alapján az idegennyelvi és a szaknyelvi órákon, különös tekintettel a ritkább idegen nyelvekre, mint amilyen a holland is, mely készségek jelennek meg ezek közül. A tanulmány célja, hogy áttekintse e tekintetben a három, holland nyelvi képzést kínáló magyarországi felsőoktatási intézmény holland szakos kurrikulumait és ezzel párhuzamosan bepillantást engedjen angol szakos tanterveik transzverzális készségekre vonatkozó részébe is.

Published: July 2023

Effective linkages among farmers play a crucial role in fostering growth within the agriculture sector. This study conducted during 2020-23 utilizes social network analysis to examine the backward and forward agribusiness linkages of farmers in Dairy Farmer Producer Organizations (FPOs) in Madhya Pradesh and Bihar. Through focused group discussions, a comprehensive list of private and government institutions acting as linkage actors for each FPO were compiled. The findings highlight that farmers primarily rely on strong informal ties for accessing agricultural information and services. Furthermore, a disparity is observed between the FPOs in Bihar and Madhya Pradesh, with the former having a smaller number of linkage actors. The FPO in Bihar demonstrates stronger associations with government institutions and officials, while the FPO in Madhya Pradesh exhibits stronger connections with private entities, including the food processing industry, artificial insemination (AI) technicians, and veterinary doctors. The study provides valuable insights into the connectedness of network actors, underscores the importance of multi-actor alliances, and emphasizes the implications of centrality measures in determining network dynamics.

Published: July 2023

The study investigates the livelihood conditions, vulnerability, and resilience of the Dal Lake fishers and their readiness and strength to withstand climate shocks and vulnerabilities. The study was conducted in 2019-2020 in three fishing villages of Dal Lake Kashmir, where the livelihood and vulnerability of fisheries-based livelihoods were assessed through a composite index development approach. The fishers of Dal Lake are moderately vulnerable to climate variability and changes. The status of the livelihood capitals of the fishers reveals that most of the capitals are of moderate type, however, the financial capital is poor horizontally among all the fishing villages. It was also found that the socio economic conditions and resilience of the people are in very poor condition. The fisheries related activities and policies are being side-lined because of giving more importance to tourism. The management of the lake is shared between the Fisheries & Tourism departments, and the Jammu and Kashmir Lakes Conservation and Management Authority (power). However, lack of coordination, less availability of resources, less priority to the fisheries sector, and lack of accountability hindered the desired outcomes. Proper management of the lake, coordination between the key stakeholders and fishers is very important and can be achieved through network governance.

Published: July 2023

The preference for dairy breeds is likely to depend on resource availability. This study attempted to analyze the distribution of the selected breeds of dairy animals among the farm size category, education, and experience of the dairy farmers. The study was conducted in the central region of Bihar and primary data was collected from January March 2021, from 70 farmers in respect of the selected dairy animals using a pre structured interview schedule. Ease of rearing index was developed and the preference of the dairy farmers towards the selected dairy breeds was estimated. The key findings revealed that 55 per cent of farmers were marginal farmers and mostly preferred indigenous breeds like Graded Sahiwal and Graded Murrah. The farmers rearing Graded Sahiwal (67%) and Graded Murrah (69%) were having qualifications up to secondary education. Highly experienced farmers were rearing buffalo whereas Graded Sahiwal (67%) and crossbred (72%) animals were kept by farmers having experience less than or equal to 20 years. The ease of rearing index revealed that most of the farmers were preferring indigenous breed to rear because of its qualitative parameters. It can be concluded that farmers are having likeness towards indigenous breeds which needs to be promoted.

Authors: Kumari Suman , Singh Harinder
Published: July 2023

Cluster Front Line Demonstrations (CFLD’s) of chickpea variety PBG7 on 82 locations were conducted to document the economic viability of technology dissemination in central plain conditions of Punjab during 2019-20 and 2020-21 to evaluate chickpea production technology. The demonstrations created an average yield production of 17.80 q/ha, which was 21.03 per cent greater than the traditional farming method (14.70 q/ha). Because of significant variation in the extent of adoption of recommended technology the yield levels were much lower under local practices. Other economic parameters like more B:C ratio (3.63), gross return (57220/ha), and net return (40465.5/ha) were comparatively more under advanced technology demonstrated plots. An average extension gap, technology gap, technology index, and additional returns of chickpea were recorded at 3.09 q/h, 2.2 q/ha, 11% and Rs. 14485/ha, respectively. Variations in agro-climatic factors and management practices were found to be responsible for variations in the technology gap and index percentage which can be reduced by farmer’s participation in adopting new technologies. It is concluded that by opting for new variety and management practices there is a huge scope to increase chickpea production at different strata viz, farmer, district, state and national level.

Published: July 2023

A study was conducted in urban and rural anganwadi centers (AWC), to assess the soft skills such as communication skills, time management, positive attitude, and teamwork of anganwadi workers (AWW) as well as how this relates to the children’s developmental milestones. 60 AWW from 30 rural and 30 urban AWC and five 3-6-year-old children from each AWC by random sampling were chosen. There was a significant difference in communication skills, positive attitude, and teamwork. Gross motor skills of rural children were found significantly higher than in urban children and language skills were significantly higher in urban children rather than rural children. Teamwork of AWW was found positively correlated with cognitive skills and socio-emotional skills. It was imperative that need-based training programmes for AWWs, including early childhood education and other training initiatives, focus on improving soft skills of preschool education and developmental milestones can be maintained.

The study aimed to evaluate the perception of faculty members towards the organizational climate by evaluating the constraints and finding the suggestions in three colleges, namely UAS Dharwad, UHS Bagalkot, and KVAFSU Bidar, during the academic year 2020-2021 in Karnataka. The researchers used a pre-set scale consisting of 32 items that represented six organizational climate characteristics, viz. communication, supervision, decision-making, motivation, guidance, and organization management. A total of 135 faculty members participated in the study, and personal interviews were conducted to collect the data. The results revealed that the majority of faculty members faced challenges such as poor workplace relations, lack of motivation and appreciation for their achievements, improper communication of work-related information, and lack of guidance from superiors in difficult situations that hampered the organizational climate. To foster a cordial climate within the organization, faculty members suggested fostering friendly relationships among faculty and building trust, the head’s encouragement for good deeds, reward and incentive programs, and weekly faculty group meetings were suggested to increase motivation and appreciation for achievements.
Application and Importance of Cyber Security in Military Service: A Literature Review
Authors: Rajendra Dnyandev Rane
Published: July 2023

Cybersecurity includes a vast variety of practices, gear, and concepts related closely to those of records and operational generation (OT) safety. Cybersecurity is specific in its inclusion of the offensive use of records era to assault adversaries. Use of the term “cybersecurity” as a key task and a synonym for records safety or IT safety confuses clients and security practitioners and obscures essential variations between those disciplines. The recommendation for security leaders is that they ought to use the time period “cybersecurity” to designate the most effective security practices associated with the protective actions related to or relying upon information era and/or OT environments and systems. Within this paper, we are aiming to provide an explanation for “cybersecurity” and describe the relationships among cybersecurity, facts security, OT security, IT security, and different associated disciplines and practices, e.g. Cyber defense, related to their implementation aligned with the planned or present cybersecurity strategy on the national level. In this case, observe the given example of The National Cybersecurity Strategy of the Republic of Croatia, and an Action plan is provided and elaborated. The Strategy's primary objective is to apprehend organizational problems in its implementation and increase the knowledge of the significance of this difficulty inside the society

Avrupa da İslamofobi nin Tarihi Kökleri ve Güncel Nedenleri
Authors: ÖZARSLAN Selim
Published: July 2023

İslam korkusu anlamına gelen ancak beş on sene gibi kısa bir sürede korku ve kaygı süreçlerini aşarak İslam nefret ve düşmanlığına dönüşen İslamofobi, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri’nde olduğu gibi Avrupa ülkelerinde de her geçen gün artmaktadır. Batı ülkelerinde yaşayan Müslümanlar, dozu her geçen gün artan bu İslamofobik söylem ve eylemlere muhatap edilerek aşağılanmakta, ayrımcılığa maruz bırakılmakta, en temel insan hakkı olan güven içinde yaşama hakları ellerinden alınmak istenmekte adata yaşadıkları ülkelerden uzaklaştırılmaya çalışılmaktadır. 11 Eylül 2001 saldırılarıyla Amerika’da zirve yapan İslam düşmanlığı, kısa sürede Müslümanların yoğun olarak yaşadığı Avrupa ülkelerine, oradan Avustralya kıtasındaki Yeni Zelanda gibi ülkelere ulaşmış, orada yaşayan birçok Müslüman camide ibadet halinde iken silahlı saldırıya uğrayarak hunharca öldürülmüşlerdir. Son olarak İsveç ve Danimarka’da Müslümanların kutsal kitabı Kur’an-ı Kerim ve Türk Bayrağı yerlerde yakılmak suretiyle saldırıya uğramış, nefret ve ayrımcılığa maruz bırakılmıştır. Bu İslamofobik saldırılar dünyanın her yerindeki Müslümanları kaygı ve endişeye sevk etmekte, içinde bulunduğumuz post modern çağın zorunlu hale getirdiği farklı kültürel değerlere sahip insanların bir arada yaşama gerekliliğini ve dünya barışını tehdit eder boyuta taşımıştır. Son zamanlarda İslamofobi, dinler arası diyalog, farklı kültürel değerlere sahip insanların bir arada yaşama gerekliliğini konu edinen çalışmaların yapılması konunun hem Müslümanlar hem de dünya barışı için önemli olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu konuda yapılan kimi çalışmalar sadece bazı Avrupa ülkelerindeki dinler arası diyalog çalışmalarını ana tema olarak belirlerken biz bu çalışmamızda Batı’da son çeyrek asırda ortaya çıkan ancak akılla açıklanması mümkün olmayan İslamofobi’nin başka bir deyişle İslam karşıtlığının tarihi ve güncel sebeplerinin neler olduğunu irdelemeye çalışacağız.

Yüce Allah, insanları cahiliye döneminde içine düştükleri dalalete karşı ikaz ve ihyâ etmek üzere Kur’an-ı Kerîm'i indirmiştir. İnsanlar dalalete düştükçe ve bozuldukça Kur’an-ı Kerîm'in bu rolü devam edecektir. Bu nedenle "ihyâ" canlılar, özellikle de insanlar için önemlidir. İhyâ kelimesinin kökü "H,y,y"dir. "Hayyiye" lafzı lügatte hayat anlamını ifade eder, ister bir bitki, ister bir ateş, ister bir toprak, ister bir gece olsun. İstihyâ ve tahiyye lafızlarında olduğu gibi hayatta kalmanın ve yaşamın korunmasının anlamını da ifade eder. Bu kelime, bir şeylerin kaybedilmesinden sonra o şeyin geri iade edilmesi, geri gelmesi anlamına gelir. Ölünün ihyâsı, ruhunun ona geri iade edilmesi ve yeniden dirilmesidir. Bitkilerin ihyâsı, onların yeniden yeşermesidir. Ateşin ihyâsı, yeniden yakılıp alevlenmesidir. Toprağın ihyâsı, mevât toprak iken yağmurdan sonra yeniden canlanmasıdır. Kur’an-ı Kerîm'de hayat kelimesi farklı anlamlara gelir. Bu sebeple gözden geçirilmesi ve incelenmesi gerekir. Bu makalede ihyâ kelimesinin geçtiği âyetler incelenip ihyâ kavramının tahlili yapılarak insanın bu uyanış için üzerine düşen sorumlulukları ve ondan beklenen davranışları değerlendirilmiştir.
Anlam Sorunu, Latif Tokat, (Ankara: Elis Yayınları, 2014), 175 sayfa, ISBN:9789758774708

İnsanın bilme duygusu fıtraten var olan bir yetidir. Bebeklikten yetişkinliğe kadar bilme ihtiyacına tatmin edici cevaplar bulmak için farklı metotlar denenmiştir. Ünlü filozof Aristoteles’in “Metafizik” adlı eserinde bahsettiği üzere “Bütün insanlar doğal olarak bilmek isterler.” Anlam sorunu kişide cevabı bulunana kadar açık bir yaraya benzetilebilir. O yara kapanana kadar acı ve ıstırap hali bitmez. Latif Tokat bu eserinde “Anlamın anlamı nedir?”, “Anlam sorunu?”, “Tanrısız anlam mümkün mü?” gibi farklı başlıklar altında insan hayatının önemli sorularına cevap bulma çabasındadır. Eserin genel değerlendirmesine baktığımız zaman, anlam sorusuna cevap aramak istenildiğinde din ve Tanrı inancı sorularıyla karşılaşıldığını görürüz. Bu soruların cevapsız kalması durumunda insanın varoluş sancısı çekmesi kaçınılmazdır. Kanaatimce felsefi sorular tarih boyunca tekerrür etmiş ve her gelen filozof yaşadığı dönemin zihniyetini sırtına yüklenerek cevaplar bulmaya gayret etmiştir. Bu anlamda Latif Tokat, felsefe tarihi boyunca “anlam”a dair argümanları tasvirî bir çalışma ile ortaya koymuş, bunun yanı sıra analitik bir çözümleme ile dinin bu sorular içerisindeki konumuna dikkat çekmiştir.

Introduction

Recent studies have suggested that hypertension develop�ment may be associated with an altered immune system. However, there is a paucity of data evaluating the association between blood pressure values and inflammatory markers in patients with new-onset hypertension.

Material and methods

We evaluated 61 subjects, including 24 healthy indi�viduals and 37 newly diagnosed hypertensive patients (aged 45 ±9.6 vs. 43.8 ±11.9 years; SBP_24hours 114 ±7.1 vs. 134.2 ±9.5 mm Hg; DBP_24hours 71.2 ±4.7 vs. 85.8 ±9.3 mm Hg, respectively) without prior antihypertensive treatment. The diagnosis of hypertension was based on 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). We analysed the association between
blood pressure values and levels of individual inflammatory markers (ITAC, GM-CSF, fractalkine, IFN-g, IL-10, MIP-3a, IL-12, IL-13, IL-17A, IL-1b, IL-2, IL-21, IL-23, IL-5, IL-6, IL-7, IL-8, MIP-1a, MIP-1b, TNF-a, and IL-15) sepa�rately, as well as in clusters of inflammatory mediators (factor 1 – proin�flammatory: IL-1β, IL2, IL-6, IL-7, IL-12, IL-6, IL-21, TNF-α, IFN-γ; and factor 2 – anti-inflammatory: IL-13, IL-5).

Results

Our study did not show any differences in concentrations of inflam�matory markers between patients and controls. Plasma levels of inflamma�tory markers were not associated with 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure values in patients with new-onset hypertension.

Conclusions

Patients with new-onset hypertension did not differ from healthy subjects regarding the levels of plasma inflammatory markers. Our findings demonstrate the need for larger, more comprehensive studies on this topic to further elucidate the relationship between hypertension and inflammation.
Conclusion: Aftereffects
Authors: Ferando Christina
Published: July 2023

The conclusion, “Aftereffects,” traces the legacy of the responses to Canova’s work into the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The discourse generated by exhibitions of his sculptures transformed sculptural theory and reveals the power of public dialogue and criticism to assert change. At the same time, Canova’s exhibitions prefigured the embodied and immersive experience that is now the province of “installation art.” They inspired viewers to reflect on their experience, share their ideas, and converse and debate with one another, celebrating a communal act of engagement with works of art.

The study aimed to investigate the extent to which students' epistemological beliefs in the dimension of control of knowledge acquisition relate to performance in the subject of physics. The study used a mixed-methods research approach that included philosophical analysis, a descriptive survey and a correlational analysis. The research was steered by both the implicit intelligence philosophy and the constructivist learning theory. The sample size comprised 310 form two students, 60 physics teachers and 20 heads of the science department. Quantitative data analysis techniques, including correlation and regression analysis, were used to examine the relationships between students’ epistemological beliefs in control of knowledge and physics performance. The qualitative data from interviews provided deeper insights into how students’ experiences and perceptions related to their beliefs about knowledge and physics performance. Data analysis was performed using tools in the SPSS version 26. The study revealed a positive correlation between sophisticated beliefs in control of knowledge acquisition and performance in physics. From the findings of the study, the researcher concluded that sophisticated beliefs in control of knowledge acquisition contribute towards better performance in physics. The study suggests the implementation of strategies aimed at fostering the development and adoption of sophisticated epistemological beliefs in control of knowledge acquisition among students to enhance their performance in physics. The outcome of this study can inform educational policymakers, curriculum developers, and teachers in Kenya to design interventions that promote the development of students’ epistemological beliefs in control of knowledge to stimulate performance in physics.

Komunistinių režimų žlugimas bei demokratijos įsigalėjimas buvusiose sovietinėse Vidurio ir Rytų Europos šalyse yra vienas svarbiausių XX a. pabaigos pasaulio įvykių, lėmusių tolimesnį pasaulio tvarkos pasikeitimą. Nuo šio istorinio lūžio praėję metai Vidurio ir Rytų Europos šalyse (taip pat ir Lietuvoje) vadinami transformacijų laiku, per kurį pasikeitė valdžia, institucijos, visuomenė. Šis Naujausiųjų laikų Lietuvos valstybės laikotarpis ir buvo reflektuojamas 2022 m. spalio 25 d. Lietuvos nacionalinės Martyno Mažvydo bibliotekos organizuotoje tarptautinėje mokslinėje konferencijoje „Lietuvos kūrimasis po 1990 m.: vizijos, realijos, atmintys“. Konferenciją inspiravo ir Lietuvos Aukščiausiosios Tarybos-Atkuriamojo Seimo pirmininko, pirmojo atkurtos nepriklausomos Lietuvos vadovo Vytauto Landsbergio, kurio indėlis į šio laikotarpio procesus neabejotinai reikšmingas, 90 metų jubiliejus. Konferencijos tema – Lietuvos valstybingumo raida nuo nepriklausomybės atgavimo iki nūdienos – analizuota šiais aspektais: Lietuva iš jos vadovų perspektyvos; Lietuva ir jos politinės ateities vizijos išeivijos svarstymuose; skirtingi posovietinės transformacijos bruožai; kelias į pilietinę visuomenę; atminties ir atminties institucijų transformacijos. Perskaityti pranešimai padėjo geriau suvokti, kaip Lietuvos piliečiai ir jiems atstovaujantys politikai supranta valstybingumą, valstybės kūrimo procesą, galiausiai, kokia Lietuva matoma šiuolaikiniame globaliame pasaulyje.
