With the Covid-19 pandemic and its attendant devastating effects that have hampered every aspect of human existence; it becomes pertinent on the government, stakeholders, and the academia to invigorate possible measures to mitigate the impact of the pandemic as it relates to teaching and learning; considering curtailing measures of the pandemic that restricted human contacts and social gatherings; hence the adoption of ICT by schools for teaching and learning. This is what necessitated this study, to ascertain the effect of ICT adoption in Nigerian schools in the post Covid-19 era. The study explored the purposive sampling technique of data collection. A wellstructured questionnaire was distributed to 250 students and 50 lecturers, selected from 5 chosen private universities in South-East Nigeria. The reliability of the instrument was determined using the Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient. The study applied the mean, standard deviation, and the Pearson’s Correlation for data Analysis. The result revealed that ICT adoption has a significant positive effect on effective teaching and learning through the provision of various ICT tools in the post Covid-19 era in Nigeria; significant positive effect in mitigating the problems of Students-Teacher ratio (mostly in overcrowded classes), and also a significant positive effect in influencing teacher subjectmatter mastery and lesson preparedness. In furtherance, the result revealed that ICT adoption in schools has no significant effect on effective classroom management (through internal learning distractors’ mitigation), and also no significant effect on education affordability (through cost implication reduction). The study concluded that ICT adoption in schools, on the average, will influence effective teaching and learning in the post Covid-19 Nigeria to a high extent, and recommended among others the need for curriculum review by the Nigerian Government for ICT inclusion, to achieve effective teaching and learning in schools in the post Covid-19 Nigeria.

Authors: АБЯНОВ Роман Рамилевич , МАРЧЕНКОВА Светлана Васильевна
Published: December 2022

Рассматривается роль строительного комплекса России в качестве одного из основных драйверов экономического развития и инструмента антикризисной политики для стимулирования экономики в кризисных условиях. Высокий спрос на объекты транспортной инфраструктуры, объекты промышленного и гражданского строительства, необходимость импортозамещения широкого спектра изделий и технологий, а также возможность увеличения кредитования в национальной валюте экономики создают беспрецедентные возможности для наращивания объемов строительства, обновления существующих и создания новых основных фондов за счет роста инвестирования. Рассмотрены основные факторы, которые привели к мировому экономическому кризису. Показано, что увеличение строительных работ будет сопровождаться значительными мультипликативными эффектами, в том числе ростом занятости как в самом строительном комплексе, так и в смежных и связанных с ним отраслях.

Published: December 2022

На фоне цифровой трансформации строительной отрасли широкое применение получили технологии информационного моделирования. В этой связи рассмотрена возможность реализации механизма армирования подпорной стенки гидротехнического сооружения с использованием данных технологий. Проведен анализ существующего программного обеспечения, на основании которого было определено, что наиболее подходящим на текущий момент, но неидеальным функционалом для решения поставленной задачи обладает программный комплекс Autodesk Revit. Для создания специального механизма сформировано несколько скриптов в среде визуального программирования Dynamo, которая является частью рассматриваемого программного обеспечения. Для корректной работы скриптов разработаны семейства подпорных стенок различного типа, произведена их параметризация для обеспечения свободного изменения параметров конструкций. Для минимизации ошибок в работе каждый скрипт тестировался в специальном шаблоне проекта, что позволило устранять недочеты в момент их возникновения. В рамках дальнейших исследований планируется адаптировать разработанный подход к возможному использованию отечественного программного обеспечения.

This article aims to explain the history of food policy in Indonesia related to the diversity of staple foods in 1945-2021. This research used historical methods and literature studies on food policy studies. The results indicate that no continuity of staple food diversity which is the historical reality of contemporary Indonesian food policy. In the beginning, the diversity of staple food, the local wisdom of the archipelagic community, had received a considerable attention in the idealism of President Sukarno. However, it still was not fulfilled in the next period, such as in the rice politics of President Soeharto, the food security movement of President Megawati Soekarnoputri, the food import policy of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, to the food barn policy of President Joko Widodo. The diversity of staple foods in contemporary government policies is accommodated in short-term, local, or partial scale programs, and not adaptive to changing times. Thus, the fulfillment of community’s staple food is still dominated by non-inclusive food policies.

Species, under the genus Rhynchorhamphus (Family: Hemiramphidae), are widely distributed marine groups of fishes. Among four species described from India, only two species, i.e., Rhynchorhamphus georgii and R. maabarica, are reported along the Indian coast. However, during the present study, a specimen collected from the Western Indian Ocean, Chetty harbour, Kerala, the south-west coast of India, has been identified as Rhynchorhamphus naga (Collette, 1976), based on morphology and molecular characters. The species is characterized by D-14; A-14; Pec-9; Pev-6; GR-50 and a prolonged beak (171.82% HL). The species has been reported from Western Central Pacific and several other countries like Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam considered to be endemic to that region. This finding reveals that the species has a wider distribution, as we recorded the species from Kerala, south-west coast of India along the Indian Ocean.

Chemical Profile and Antifungal Activity of Leaf Extract of Tabernaemontana divaricata against Macrophomina phaseolina
Authors: Javaid Arshad , Khan Iqra Haider
Published: December 2022

Macrophomina phaseolina is a highly problematic fungus that causes diseases in hundreds of plant species. In order to search for an alternative to chemical fungicides for the control of this devastating pathogen, leaf extract of Tabernaemontana divaricata was assessed for the control of M. phaseolina. Five concentrations of leaf extract in methanol viz. 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5% (w/v), were checked against M. phaseolina. All these concentrations significantly suppressed the fungal growth resulting in 34–74% decreased biomass of M. phaseolina over control. GC-MS analysis of this extract showed the presence of 54 compounds. Squalene was the predominant compound with 24.11% peak area followed by vitamin E (8.96%). Other important compounds were hexadecanoic acid, 2-hydroxy-1-(hydroxymethyl)ethyl ester (6.21%), thiophene, tetrahydro-2-methyl- (5.68%), cyclopentanol (5.61%), neophytadiene (6.25%), 1-tert-butoxypropan-2-yl 2-methylbutanoate (6.03%), ibogamine-18-carboxylic acid, 12-methoxy-, methyl ester (2.95%), phytol (2.26%), and n-hexadecanoic acid (2.20%). Some of these major compounds might be responsible for antifungal property of methanolic leaf extract of T. divaricata against M. phaseolina.

Cotton is a cash crop of many countries as it serves as a source of fiber, edible oil, and seedcake. It is grown in a diverse range of environment. Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is a gram positive bacterium found in different habitats but mostly found in soil. This bacterium produces endotoxin which is harmful for various insects. Numerous crystal-forming strains of Bt exist in nature, but not all of them are efficient against insect pests. Bt cotton is prevalent internationally because of less insect attack. The key objective of this research was to analyze different Bacillus thuringiensis isolates residing in soil of different cotton fields of Multan and Bahawalpur districts and to identify them on the basis of morphology. To attain this, different soil samples were collected from Multan (Gup wala, Mosey Wala, Taloki Wala, Hafiz Wala, Choudary Wala, Basti Mangla Mari, Sharkha Wala, Lawain Wala, Ghulamo Wala) and Bahawalpur district (Basti Deewan Wali, Check No 8, Basti Tariqabad, Basti Khaji Wala, Basti Khandin, Basti Rammo Wali, Sultanpur, Khurampur, Jahanpur). About 178 colonies of different bacteria from eighteen soil samples appeared on Nutrient Agar plates. The screening of colonies based on morphology yielded 18 colonies of Bt. We performed endo-toxin production experiment and confirmed the presence of parasporal crystals in identified B. thuringiensis colonies. Colony forming units of soil samples collected from Multan and Bahawalpur represented statistically significant results. Based on morphology, eight colonies of B. thuringiensis were confirmed out of eighteen colonies. Results of the current study revealed that out of 18 isolates, 8 bacterial isolates that were grown on the media had an increased elevation, a round, white, slimy morphology, and smooth edges. Toxicity test for resistance to cotton leaf worm second instar larvae revealed that two strains (BtS2, BtS7) of B. thuringiensis were toxic and showed 39.25% mortality. This study will help to identify the local Bt isolates that can be used for the indigenous insect pest control.

The ICC for each of the T-HELP-Screener items ranged from 0.750 (95% CI = 0.590–0.847) to 0.965 (95% CI = 0.942–0.978) indicating acceptable to good test-retest reliability. There was a significant moderate correlation between the T-HELP-Screener and the HLBS-II (rs = 0.488; p =0.001). Conclusion: This study supports the psychometric properties of the T-HELP-Screener. This tool can help quickly identify older adults who need a more comprehensive assessment of their health risk behaviours. Future studies should develop and validate a Turkish version of the comprehensive 56-item Health Enhancement Lifestyle Profile (HELP).

Published: December 2022

Objective: The elongated styloid process (SP) and calcified stylohyoid ligament can be evaluated radiologically and are associated with some symptoms and syndromes. This study aimed to define the incidence of different stylohyoid chain patterns and classify them.

Methods: Digital panoramic radiographs of 1217 patients were included in the study. The styloid chain patterns were analyzed according to MacDonald-Jankowski’s study. Data analysis was performed using the IBM SPSS Statistics 21.0 (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) program.

Descriptive values were analyzed by using descriptive statistics. The data were assessed by using Chi-squared tests. A probability level of less than .05 (p ˂ .05) was considered significant.

Results: The prevalence of the stylohyoid chain complex patterns was higher for normal SP (86.5%), followed by elongated SP (7.1%), calcified stylohyoid ligament (2.2%), and absent stylohyoid chain (2.8%). Unclassified SP was detected in twenty individuals on the left (1.6%) and fourteen on the right (1.2%). In view of symmetry of the stylohyoid chain complex, 979 (80.4%) were symmetric, 238 (19.6%) were asymmetric and 14 (1.15%) of the asymmetrical ones were unilateral. There was no significant difference in gender for the type of stylohyoid chain complex pattern (p > .05). There was statistically significant difference between the stylohyoid complex pattern and age groups for the right and left

sides (p < .05).

Conclusion: The authors believe that this study provides additional information about the frequency of the elongated styloid process and provides valuable knowledge of the anatomical variations of the SP. Current findings should be correlated with clinical symptoms in future studies

Problematizing tourism for conservation: An eco-cultural critique on sustainability
Authors: Sajib S M Sadat al , Nicolli Francesco , Alietti Alfredo
Published: December 2022

Nature conservation has often been depicted as an effective policy measure to redress the ongoing environmental problems across the globe. The need to ensure sustainability for people’s secured subsistence has rendered nature conservation an indispensable scheme in the tourism development policy. It is evident that during the last couple of decades, the notion of “conservation” has become less established whilst tourism development has been prioritised as a profit making venture by both the national and international agencies. Numerous solutions have been prescribed by international organisations adopting tourism as an “immense potentiality” which mostly represented a sustainability effort for the local development and environment. South Asia in general and Bangladesh, in particular, are no different, since policy for nature conservation has been misplaced and misread to reach sustainability goals, as it has always been connected with the tourism development agenda. From a systematic literature review, it was found that the use of natural resources by local people was exemplified as a threat to sustainability where the relations between conservation and tourism became a policy issue. The paper intends to problematise the mechanism of tourism policies for nature conservation or conservation policies for tourism development that overlooks the local eco-cultural management practice for sustainability. Along with the environmental discourses, an eco-cultural critique on sustainability was employed.
Developing a new cultural policy agenda for Pistoia: The current and projected role of artists and creative workers in the territory

Published: December 2022

This paper aims to promote an understanding of what cultural and creative industries in general, and valorisation of Pistoia’s cultural life in particular, mean to the main stakeholders and how they establish the collaboration during this process of negotiation, fundraising and prioritising the cultural production/experience/consumption according to the strategic cultural plan in Pistoia. What are the needs, priorities and concerns of the artists and creative workers regarding the strategic plan? To what extent are the policymakers’ aims and the ideas of the artists and creative workers parallel and divergent? Explorative process tracing that aims at semi-structured in-depth interviews are conducted with local artists and other stakeholders in Pistoia to observe the planning and to determine the past and current obstacles. Furthermore, the researchers involved in the project are engaged in participant observation as they follow the developments on how the decision-making takes place regarding cultural policies in the city through theTavolo Permanente della Cultura. We argue that the modality in which artists and policymakers think of collaboration might be diverse but there is ample room for collaboration in the future.

Microgrid (MG) technologies offer users attractive characteristics such as enhanced power quality, stability, sustainability, and environmentally friendly energy through a control and Energy Management System (EMS). Microgrids are enabled by integrating such distributed energy sources into the utility grid. The microgrid concept is proposed to create a self-contained system composed of distributed energy resources capable of operating in an isolated mode during grid disruptions. With the Internet of Things (IoT) daily technological advancements and updates, intelligent microgrids, the critical components of the future smart grid, are integrating an increasing number of IoT architectures and technologies for applications aimed at developing, controlling, monitoring, and protecting microgrids. Microgrids are composed of various distributed generators (DG), which may include renewable and non-renewable energy sources. As a result, a proper control strategy and monitoring system must guarantee that MG power is transferred efficiently to sensitive loads and the primary grid. This paper evaluates MG control strategies in detail and classifies them according to their level of protection, energy conversion, integration, benefits, and drawbacks. This paper also shows the role of the IoT and monitoring systems for energy management and data analysis in the microgrid. Additionally, this analysis highlights numerous elements, obstacles, and issues regarding the long-term development of MG control technologies in next-generation intelligent grid applications. This paper can be used as a reference for all new microgrid energy management and monitoring research.

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is linked to 2 main disparate genetic pathways: a chromosome 10 risk locus and the alternative pathway (AP) of complement. Rare genetic variants in complement factor H (CFH; FH) and factor I (CFI; FI) are associated with AMD. FH acts as a soluble cofactor to facilitate FI’s cleavage and inactivation of the central molecule of the AP, C3b. For personalised treatment, sensitive assays are required to define the functional significance of individual AP genetic variants. Generation of recombinant FI for functional analysis has thus far been constrained by incomplete processing resulting in a preparation of active and inactive protein. Using an internal ribosomal entry site (IRES)-Furin-CFI expression vector, fully processed FI was generated with activity equivalent to serum purified FI. By generating FI with an inactivated serine protease domain (S525A FI), a real-time surface plasmon resonance assay of C3b:FH:FI complex formation for characterising variants in CFH and CFI was developed and correlated well with standard assays. Using these methods, we further demonstrate that patient-associated rare genetic variants lacking enzymatic activity (e.g. CFI I340T) may competitively inhibit the wild-type FI protein. The dominant negative effect identified in inactive factor I variants could impact on the pharmacological replacement of FI currently being investigated for the treatment of dry AMD.
