Authors:   Hanoi University of Public Health, Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao , Nguyen Yen Nhu ,   Hanoi University of Public Health, Ho Thi Hien ,   Hanoi University of Public Health
Published: June 2023

Objective: To analyze the status of dental care activities, including prevention and treatment of dental conditions at 09 health commune stations in Cai Be district, Tien Giang province in the period of 2016 - 2018. Methods: The study used a cross-sectional design (using qualitative and secondary data), to conduct, 18 in-depth interviews with administrators of 1 district health center, 3 commune health stations, 3 medical staff in charge of oral diseases, 8 patients, and 3 school medical staff. Thematic analysis was used, and quantitative data were analyzed with descriptive statistics Findings: Communication activities for dental care were carried out annually; all patients were consulted and educated on oral health and prevention measures for oral and dental diseases. All 09 commune health stations have medical staff in charge of oral diseases; however, their professional qualifications are limited. Usually, they are not dentists but dentomaxillofacial physicians, or even nurses in some stations. All 09/09 commune health stations do not have staff that are trained on dental care at hospitals. Conclusions and recommendations: Dental care at the commune level has a number of limitations, requiring further development of human resources, technical support, communication activities, and oral care supervision at communal health stations and schools.

ackground: In Vietnam, chronic kidney disease (CKD) is becoming a major problem with an estimated six million people having the disease due to the rise in diabetes and hypertension. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ministry of Health took swift action to limit the referral of people with chronic diseases to city-based healthcare services to protect this highly vulnerable group. Thus, providing a mobile support program for kidney health is extremely important to provide alternative healthcare and support access. Methods/ design:The Smart Kidney Health Support program is a telehealth program aiming to provide information/ updated guidelines and support for CKD, treatments, dietary, exercises, and mental wellness for people with CKD. This Smart Kidney program will be designed and developed as a mobile application. The program development consists of two phases: Phase 1 is the development of a mobile app tool using codesign methods; Phase 2 is to pilot this mobile-based program in which the feasibility and acceptability of the program will be evaluated. Conclusion:The expected outcome of this project is to have a comprehensive, hands-on, and innovative mobile health support program to support and assist people with CKD in Vietnam to better self-manage their disease, treatments, and lifestyle.

Analysis of short videos on TikTok for learning Portuguese as a foreign language
Authors: Zhang Yidi , Lucas Margarida , Bem-Haja Pedro , Pedro Luís
Published: June 2023

In recent years, short videos have proliferated on various social media platforms, serving as a visual resource with a long history of use for various educational purposes, including foreign language learning (FLL). Despite the growing interest in the use of such platforms for short video learning, little is currently known about the use of these platforms for FLL, highlighting the need to validate these learning resources within a theoretical framework. In this context, this article analyses 34 short videos for Portuguese language learning on TikTok using an adaptation of the principles of multimedia learning proposed by Mayer. It then analyses the relation between the number of principles and each cognitive processing dimension, and the number of views and likes. Results show the adapted principles are suitable for the analysis of short videos for FLL and reveal the most prevalent one is the principle of signalling. Furthermore, the article demonstrates that the more principles a video addresses, the more likes it receives, and that the fostering generative processing dimension plays an important role in this mediation. Overall, the article illustrates the practical application of online short videos as a targeted resource for facilitating FLL and streamlines the development of instructional design strategies for short videos in the context of online FLL.

En los últimos años, los vídeos cortos han proliferado en diversas plataformas de medios sociales, sirviendo como un recurso visual con una larga historia de uso para diversos fines educativos, incluyendo el aprendizaje de lenguas extranjeras (FLL). A pesar del creciente interés en el uso de estas plataformas para el aprendizaje de vídeos cortos, poco se sabe actualmente sobre el uso de estas plataformas para FLL, destacando la necesidad de validar estos recursos de aprendizaje dentro de un marco teórico. En este contexto, este artículo analiza 34 vídeos cortos para el aprendizaje de la lengua portuguesa en TikTok utilizando una adaptación de los principios del aprendizaje multimedia propuestos por Mayer. Analiza la relación que existe entre el número de principios y cada dimensión de procesamiento cognitivo, así como el número de visualizaciones y «likes». Los resultados muestran que los principios adaptados son adecuados para el análisis de vídeos cortos para FLL y revelan que el más prevalente es el principio de señalización. El artículo demuestra que cuantos más principios aborda un vídeo, más «likes» recibe, y que la dimensión de fomento del procesamiento generativo desempeña un papel importante en esta mediación. En general, el artículo ilustra la aplicación práctica de vídeos cortos como un recurso específico para facilitar el FLL y agiliza el desarrollo de estrategias de diseño instruccional para vídeos cortos en el contexto del FLL en línea.

Published: June 2023

The main objective of the research is to study the creative potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) for writing skills in an educational context. The research aims to provide evidence on the use of AI and contribute to its integration in the classroom as a support for the teaching-learning process. Two types of research designs were established: a descriptive and comparative non-experimental quantitative research, and a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest study. The sample consisted of 20 AI systems and 193 university students who were given Games 2 and 3 of the Spanish PIC-A test (“Creative Imagination Test for Adults”). The students repeated the games, assisted by ChatGPT, to compare the possible improvement of their productions. The findings reveal statistically significant differences between the AIs and the students in the indicators of fluency, flexibility, and narrative originality in Game 2. Furthermore, significant differences are found between students’ pre-test and post-test scores in fluency, flexibility, and narrative originality in Game 2 and in fluency in Game 3. Finally, the assistance provided by AI in writing tasks and verbal creativity is highlighted, and this should be considered in language teaching; in any case, AI cannot replace human intelligence and creativity.

La investigación persigue estudiar las posibilidades creativas de los sistemas de Inteligencia Artificial (IA) para el desarrollo de la escritura en el contexto educativo. Se persigue aportar evidencias en el uso de la IA y contribuir al conocimiento de su integración en las aulas como apoyo al proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Se establecen dos tipos de diseño: una investigación de corte cuantitativo no experimental de tipo descriptivo y comparativo, y un estudio cuasi-experimental de tipo pretest-postest. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 20 sistemas de IA y 193 estudiantes universitarios, a los cuales se les aplicaron los juegos 2 y 3 del test español PIC-A («Prueba de Imaginación Creativa para Adultos»). El alumnado repitió los juegos con ayuda de ChatGPT, con el fin de comparar la posible mejora de sus producciones. Los resultados destacan la existencia de diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre las IA y el alumnado en los indicadores de fluidez, flexibilidad y originalidad narrativa del juego 2. Además, se encuentran diferencias significativas entre las puntuaciones del pretest y postest del alumnado en fluidez, flexibilidad y originalidad narrativa del juego 2, así como en fluidez del juego 3. Finalmente, se pone de manifiesto la ayuda que la IA proporciona en tareas de escritura y creatividad verbal, lo que debería ser tenido en cuenta en la enseñanza de lenguas; en cualquier caso, la IA no puede reemplazar a la inteligencia y la creatividad humana.
Using YouTube to seek answers and make decisions: Implications for Australian adult media and information literacy
Authors: Notley Tanya , Dezuanni Michael , Chambers Simon , Park Sora
Published: June 2023

This article argues that it is necessary to develop new approaches to media and information literacy (MIL) education to respond to information seeking on YouTube. The article draws on data from a survey of adult Australians (N=3,510), focusing on their media literacy attitudes, experiences, and needs. A subset of this data focuses on respondents who use YouTube to seek information for a purpose. The article interrogates the data to ask who uses YouTube to access information when they need to make a decision; how these adults’ critical dispositions compare to people who do not use YouTube to seek information; and what level of media ability they have compared to other groups. A total of 45% of adult Australians had used YouTube to seek information and make a decision in the month prior to completing the survey. While this group shared a critical disposition towards media and information, they lacked confidence in their own media abilities. We argue that it is necessary to develop new MIL approaches to assist this group. In addition, we argue that this group is more likely to respond to MIL initiatives that are available on YouTube itself and are unlikely to seek MIL learning in community institutions like libraries or community centres.

Este artículo sostiene la necesidad de desarrollar nuevos enfoques en la educación en alfabetización mediática e informacional (AMI) para responder a la búsqueda de información en YouTube. El estudio se basa en los datos de una encuesta realizada a adultos australianos (N=3.510), centrada en sus actitudes, experiencias y necesidades en materia de alfabetización mediática. Un subconjunto de estos datos se centra en los encuestados que utilizan YouTube para buscar información con algún fin. El texto indaga sobre quiénes utilizan YouTube para acceder a la información cuando necesitan tomar una decisión; cómo se comparan las disposiciones críticas de estos adultos con las de las personas que no utilizan YouTube para buscar información; y qué nivel de competencia mediática tienen en comparación con otros grupos. El 45% de los australianos adultos acudió a YouTube en busca de información o para tomar una decisión durante el mes anterior a la realización de la encuesta. Aunque este grupo compartía una disposición crítica hacia los medios de comunicación y la información, carecía de confianza en sus propias habilidades mediáticas. Se argumenta que es preciso desarrollar un nuevo planteamiento de la AMI para ayudar a este colectivo. Además, se considera que este grupo es más propenso a responder a las iniciativas de alfabetización mediática e informacional que están disponibles en el propio YouTube y que es improbable que busque la alfabetización mediática e informacional en instituciones comunitarias como bibliotecas o centros cívicos.
Social web and photojournalism: User-generated content of the Russo-Ukrainian war
Authors: Fernández-Castrillo Carolina , Ramos Celia
Published: June 2023

The research is focused on the emerging practices of digital photojournalism in war contexts, in relation to the use of user-generated content from social networks. The focal point is the coverage of the Russo-Ukrainian conflict by the two main online newspapers of the belligerent countries: Ukrayinska Pravda and Rossiyskaya Gazeta. From the analysis of an initial sample of 7,194 articles (6,646 Ukrainian and 548 Russian), published during the first semester of the war, the preferred type of graphic content and the degree of presence of images from the different social platforms will be determined. Likewise, the article offers a theoretical innovation on the current state of the routine of war digital photojournalism, introducing the definition of the concept of “false collective source” due to the appropriation of mechanisms of collective intelligence for potential propaganda purposes. The informative use of the social web has generated a transition from “gatekeeping” to “gatewatching” that makes it necessary to review the state of the art to avoid a possible instrumentalization of the role of users. Finally, a decalogue is proposed to combat digital illiteracy and identify new appropriation practices, by distinguishing the use of the social web as an information source versus its use as a mere distribution channel.

La investigación enfoca su interés en las prácticas emergentes del fotoperiodismo digital en contextos bélicos en relación con el uso de contenidos generados por usuarios desde las redes sociales. El estudio se centra en la cobertura del conflicto ruso-ucraniano por parte de los dos principales diarios digitales de los países beligerantes: Ukrayinska Pravda y Rossiyskaya Gazeta. A partir del análisis de una muestra inicial de 7.194 artículos (6.646 ucranianos y 548 rusos), publicados durante el primer semestre de la guerra, se determinó el tipo de contenido gráfico preferente y el grado de presencia de imágenes procedentes de las distintas plataformas sociales. Asimismo, el artículo ofrece una aportación de innovación teórica sobre el estado actual de la rutina del fotoperiodismo digital bélico, introduciendo la definición del concepto de «falsa fuente colectiva» como resultado de la apropiación de mecanismos propios de la inteligencia colectiva con fines potencialmente propagandísticos. El uso informativo de la web social ha generado una transición del «gatekeeping» al «gatewatching» que requiere una revisión del estado de la cuestión con el fin de evitar una posible instrumentalización del papel del usuario. Por último, se plantea un decálogo para combatir la desalfabetización digital e identificar las nuevas prácticas de corte apropiacionista, mediante la distinción del uso de la web social como fuente informativa frente a su utilización como mero canal de distribución.

Published: June 2023

The term 'Artificial Intelligence' was coined in 1956 at a conference at Dartmouth College and since then it has undergone constant development and has evolved radically. Prominent pioneers of the term include John McCarthy, Marvin Minsky, Allen Newell, and Herbert A. Simon. The application of AI in education worldwide has increased dramatically with its importance growing at an increasing rate. The objective of this research is to bibliometrically analyze applications of AI in contemporary education. The methodology includes a Prisma of the articles of three fundamental databases: Scopus (n=390), Mendeley (n=113), and Science Direct (n=3,594). A total of n=4,097 articles in English and Spanish were analyzed. The systematic literature review of recent works employed a mixed approach using quantitative and qualitative methods. It was inferred by the authors that AI is revolutionizing education by offering personalized and efficient solutions to improve students’ learning. One of the main conclusions of this research is that in contemporary education, students are one of the groups that are most affected by AI. Furthermore, the human intelligence of teachers plays a fundamental role since they adapt their methodologies to leverage new technologies. Finally, it is worth noting that decisions made in schools and universities support new educational models based on technology.

Lockdown, cyberhate, and protective factor of social-emotional and moral competencies in Primary Education
Authors: Llorent Vicente-J. , Seade-Mejía Carolina , Vélez-Calvo Ximena
Published: June 2023

The COVID-19 pandemic caused a major crisis in numerous social spheres, especially among children, due to the closure of schools in hundreds of countries. The lockdown resulted in classes being given exclusively online, which could have led to increased participation in antisocial online behaviour such as cyberhate. This research aims to find out the impact of lockdown on cyberhate in children in Primary Education and to analyse the role of social, emotional and moral competencies as a protective factor. The study was conducted with 792 primary school pupils (Mage=10.81, SD=0.85) from Cuenca (Ecuador). A questionnaire focusing on cyberhate, social and emotional competencies, empathy, and moral emotions scales was used. A quantitative study was carried out with a longitudinal design with two data rounds of collection separated by an interval of five months. The results showed that total cyberhate and its dimensions, perpetration and propagation, increased longitudinally. Cyberhate among these participants could be predicted, after five months of lockdown, for being male, being in the highest school year, attending a state school, and obtaining low scores in moral emotions. The effects of the lockdown have highlighted the importance of face-to-face social relationships, which has exciting implications on the importance of school in developing social, emotional, and moral competencies which foster coexistence and respect for diversity.

La pandemia por COVID-19 provocó una gran crisis en numerosos ámbitos sociales, especialmente en los niños, por el cierre de las escuelas en cientos de países. El confinamiento implicó un contexto educativo puramente virtual, lo cual pudo aumentar la participación en ciberconductas antisociales como el ciberodio. El objetivo de la presente investigación es conocer el impacto del confinamiento en el ciberodio de los niños de Educación Primaria, y analizar el papel de las competencias socioemocionales y morales como factor protector. El estudio se realizó con 792 alumnos de Educación Primaria (Medad=10,81, DT=0,85) de Cuenca (Ecuador). Se utilizó un cuestionario compuesto por las escalas de ciberodio, competencias socioemocionales, empatía y emociones morales. Se realizó un estudio cuantitativo con un diseño longitudinal con dos recogidas de datos en un intervalo de cinco meses. Los resultados mostraron que tanto el ciberodio total y sus dimensiones, agresión y promoción, aumentaron longitudinalmente. El ciberodio entre estos participantes se podría predecir tras cinco meses de confinamiento por ser varón, por pertenecer al curso superior, por asistir a un centro público y por tener bajas puntuaciones en emociones morales. Los efectos del confinamiento han destacado la importancia de las relaciones sociales cara a cara, lo cual tiene interesantes implicaciones sobre la importancia de la escuela en el desarrollo de las competencias socioemocionales y morales para la convivencia y el respeto a la diversidad.
Expérience sociale et imaginaire. L’identité latino-américaine
Authors: Stefanich Fernando
Published: June 2023

Qu’est-ce qu’être latino-américain ? De quelle manière éprouvons-nous le monde ? Quel rôle joue l’expérience (sociale) dans la construction identitaire ? À quel point détermine-t-elle le cours de l’Histoire ? Le but de cette étude est de mener à bien une déconstruction qui nous permettra de mieux comprendre l’identité latino-américaine. Pour ce faire, nous empruntons des outils théoriques à des disciplines aussi variées que l’histoire et les sciences politiques mais nous faisons principalement appel à la sociologie de l’imaginaire et à la sociologie de l’expérience car ces deux éléments, l’expérience et l’imaginaire, dialoguent, se complémentent, s’actualisent. Les éléments mobilisés (temporalité non linéaire, matrice fondationnelle, identité duelle, chiasme, enracinement dynamique, blessures héritées, fables compensatoires, libido narcissique, passé non honoré) constituent un arsenal théorique qui nous a permis de dévoiler les rouages intimes de la vie sociale latino-américaine et, par conséquent, de son histoire.
Dire et défaire le scandale : le discours pamphlétaire à l’âge baroque espagnol comme éthique et esthétique de l’expérience
Authors: Monjarret Élise
Published: June 2023

Le discours pamphlétaire de l’Espagne du début du XVIIe siècle, en particulier celui qui fut retourné par le jeune courtisan Francisco de Quevedo contre le favori royal en 1606-1608, peut être exploré comme éthique et esthétique de l’expérience. Décuplées dans le contexte d’un âge baroque traversé par une conception très organique du langage, les ambitions performatives de cette parole de combat s’appuient sur une expérience conçue à la fois comme son déclencheur, sa légitimation et sa structure rhétorique. Aussi le pamphlétaire prétend-il explicitement mettre en défaut l’abstraite mécanique démonstrative pour mieux nous permettre d’« experimentar », au double sens du terme, le scandale d’idéaux dévoyés qu’incarne, selon lui, le favori royal.
Découvrir, vivre et écrire le territoire estrémègne au tournant du XXe siècle. Une voie possible vers la Régénération ?
Authors: Aït Bachir Nadia
Published: June 2023

Campos de Castilla, le recueil de poèmes d’Antonio Machado, Castilla, l’essai d’Azorín, En torno al casticismo du philosophe Miguel de Unamuno, Vista del Guadarrama desde El Plantío ou encore Lavaderos del Manzanares, titres de tableaux de Beruete. Toutes sont des œuvres réalisées au tournant du XXe siècle et qui par leurs titres attestent de l’importance que revêtait la Castille, un des motifs qui incarnait le mieux aux yeux des intellectuels de l’époque l’âme vraie de l’Espagne. Ainsi, le territoire, considéré comme un laboratoire expérimental, comme un objet construit et non plus comme un simple décor, va permettre de découvrir ou redécouvrir la tradition, que le train de la modernité n’a pas emportée avec lui sur son passage. Quelles circonstances et décisions ont pu motiver ce choix ? En quoi un paysage est-il conçu comme support révélateur d’une identité collective ? Voilà quelques questions auxquelles ce travail se propose de répondre.
L’expérience en danse : le cas d’Antonia Mercé, La Argentina
Authors: Frison Hélène
Published: June 2023

Figure originale et exceptionnelle au sein de l’histoire de la danse espagnole, Antonia Mercé doit une partie de sa renommée dans la Péninsule aux succès qu’elle a obtenus à l’étranger. D’abord formée à la technique classique et à celle du Boléro, la danseuse débute sa carrière dans les music-halls et cabarets espagnols dans les premières années du XXe siècle. Cependant, le manque de reconnaissance dont souffre l’art de Terpsichore, cantonné au spectacle d’agrément en Espagne, limite ses possibilités. La danseuse choisit alors d’exporter à l’étranger ses propres créations. Dans la perspective de l’esthétique défendue au même moment par Lorca et Falla notamment, elle fusionne les genres traditionnels et les stylise afin de créer un langage nouveau. Partant systématiquement de ce matériau espagnol, Antonia Mercé expérimente de nouvelles formes pour la danse : depuis la création de sa compagnie les « Ballets españoles », inspirée de l’exemple de la troupe de Diaghilev, jusqu’à celle du récital de danse, La Argentina devient l’une des figures de la modernité dans l’Espagne de la IIde République.
« Comme une marche aux flambeaux sur skis ». La langue et l’expérience du monde dans la poétique des années 1960 de Jan Erik Vold
Authors: Veivo Harri
Published: June 2023

Partant d’une question qui n’a cessé de hanter la littérature moderne, celle des liens entre la littérature et le monde, l’article analyse comment le poète norvégien Jan Erik Vold (né en 1939) conceptualise la relation entre le texte, la langue et la réalité dans ses écrits théoriques des années 1960 d’une part et comment il s’empare des techniques de la poésie concrète dans son travail créatif pour interroger et renouveler l’expérience de la lecture d’autre part. La période abordée dans l’article se situe à un moment charnière dans l’histoire littéraire norvégienne où l’expérimentation formelle devient l’objet d’une réflexion théorique soutenue, sans pour autant être pensée en termes d’engagement politique, thème qui dominera la discussion à partir de 1968 au détriment de la philosophie et de la poétique.
L’expérience de la mort dans Farabeuf de Salvador Elizondo
Authors: Benmiloud Karim
Published: June 2023

Publié en 1965, Farabeuf o la crónica de un instante du romancier mexicain Salvador Elizondo (1932-2006) propose le récit court et singulier d’un rendez-vous entre un homme et une femme qui se livrent à un étrange rituel. Inspiré d’un poème en prose de Charles Baudelaire, le récit affronte, au sein d’un espace labyrinthique, la question de la représentation du temps et de la complexité de son écoulement sous l’angle le plus infime qui soit, celui de « l’instant », « ce dernier instant où il faut abattre les pouvoirs de l’éternité ». À travers la répétition du rite sacrificiel, comme indéfiniment suspendue dans le temps du récit, Farabeuf, texte à la fois expérimental et limite, explore ainsi les frontières de la mort en en proposant une expérience troublante.
Les horizons d’Agustín Fernández Mallo, ou l’expérience de la liberté dans l’écriture et la lecture de Nocilla Dream
Authors: Mollard Nicolas
Published: June 2023

L’ouvrage Nocilla Dream d’Agustín Fernández Mallo (Espagne, 2008) s’inscrit dans une œuvre plus vaste réunie sous le titre Proyecto Nocilla (Projet Nocilla), une sorte de work in progress très remarqué lors de sa publication comme œuvre majeure parmi celles d’une nouvelle génération d’écrivains espagnols dits « mutants ». Cet article évoque l’écriture en tant qu’expérience, ainsi que l’expérience de la lecture, avec en fil rouge une certaine idée de la liberté au sens de « libération » et d’« affranchissement ». Nous y étudions les notions de réalité « fragmentée » et / ou « augmentée », l’écriture « rhizomique », où la page et le livre sont des espaces plans sur lesquels se greffent ou se collent des éléments disparates que (re)connecte notre propre lecture, qui en devient performative.
Nelayan dan Penangkapan Ikan “Nike” di Perairan Teluk Gorontalo, Teluk Tomini (Indonesia)
Authors: Pasisingi Nuralim , Hafidz Olii Abdul
Published: June 2023

Perairan Teluk Gorontalo yang merupakan muara Sungai Bone adalah bagian dari wilayah Teluk Tomini. Nike sebagai schooling larva ikan yang kemunculannya di perairan Teluk Gorontalo hanya selama beberapa hari saja setiap bulan menjadikan ikan ini sebagai primadona masyarakat dan nelayan Gorontalo. Hal teknis terkait penangkapan ikan nike belum pernah dilaporkan secara ilmiah sehingga diperlukan studi terstruktur dalam rangka menggali informasi dan menyajikan data yang relevan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi profil nelayan nike serta hal yang berkaitan dengan penangkapan ikan nike yang dilakukan oleh nelayan Gorontalo. Wawancara terstruktur menggunakan instrumen kuisioner dilakukan untuk memperoleh informasi langsung dari nelayan yang aktif melakukan penangkapan nike setiap bulan di Teluk Gorontalo. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nelayan nike Gorontalo sebagian besar adalah tamatan SD dan SMP yang berusia 20-60 tahun. Penangkapan ikan nike dilakukan secara berkelompok menggunakan sarana perahu kayu bercadik serta alat tangkap totalu’o dan tagahu. Modal yang digunakan dapat berasal dari modal sendiri, kelompok, maupun pinjaman dari penampung. Harga jual nike rata-rata berkisar antara Rp 20.000 sampai Rp. 40.000 per kg. Menurut nelayan, populasi ikan nike cenderung melimpah di perairan pada saat musim timur. Saat populasi nike di perairan cukup tinggi, hasil tangkapan nelayan dapat mencapai lebih dari 100 kg per trip. Tingginya intensitas penangkapan dan kuantitas hasil tangkapan nelayan per musim kemunculan berpotensi mengancam keberlanjutan populasi nike di alam. Kajian lanjutan yang lebih komprehensif diperlukan untuk menganalisa sinergitas aspek ekonomi, sosial, dan ekologi untuk mewujudkan peningkatan kesejahteraan hidup nelayan nike di Gorontalo dengan tetap menjaga kelestarian ikan nike di alam.

Authors: Raharjo Syafrudin , Suhaemi Suhaemi , Marhan Marhan
Published: June 2023

Kenaikan temperatur udara permukaan global diperkirakan akan meningkatkan hujan dan limpasan. Perubahan jangka panjang dari curah hujan sudah tentu akan mempengaruhi sumberdaya air sehingga sektor perikanan dan kelautan akan sangat terpengaruh. Memahami perubahan iklim global di masa yang akan datang serta dampak yang dapat ditimbulkannya, khususnya perubahan pada iklim Indonesia sebagai salah satu parameter perubahan kondisi lingkungan, merupakan bagian dari strategi mitigasi dan adaptasi dampak perubahan iklim global secara dini yang penting dilakukan dalam rangka mendukung pembangunan Indonesia yang berkelanjutan. Magicc-Scengen versi 5.3 adalah salah satu model iklim yang banyak digunakan. Magicc digunakan dalam proyeksi temperatur dan paras air laut, sedangkan Scengen ditujukan untuk menghasilkan skenario perubahan iklim regional dengan resolusi 2.5°×2.5° lintang dan bujur. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui tingkat perubahan iklim khususnya temperatur udara dan curah hujan di Indonesia dengan model Magicc-Scengen (Model sirkulasi global UKHADCM3 dan UKHADGEM) dengan skenario A1-BAIM dan B2-MES. Berdasarkan simulasi model Magicc-Scengen didapatkan bahwa pada tahun 2100, temperatur global akan meningkat dari 2,5oC (B2-MES) hingga mencapai 3oC (A1-BAIM). Sedangkan untuk wilayah Indonesia terlihat bahwa perubahan temperatur maksimum terjadi pada skenario A1BAIM, yakni sebesar 2,12oC yang tersebar di wilayah sumatera dan kalimantan. Sedangkan untuk skenario B2MES terjadi perubahan temperatur maksimum sebesar 1,88oC. Hasil simulasi peningkatan curah hujan mencapai 25,4 hingga 26,2% pada periode Maret-April-Mei (MAM). Skenario A1BAIM diperoleh bahwa pola curah hujan tertinggi umumnya terjadi pada MAM (untuk tahun 2050 dan 2100), sedangkan skenario B2MES diperoleh bahwa pola curah hujan sangat bervariasi, dimana untuk tahun 2050 curah hujan tertinggi terjadi pada Desember-Januari-Februari (DJF), namun untuk tahun 2100 terlihat bahwa curah hujan tertinggi terjadi pada MAM.

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui potensi pembentukan THM pada air permukaan yaitu air Sungai Maruni dan air Kali SP 6 di Kabupaten Manokwari. Masing-masing sampel dilakukan uji karakteristik fisika dan kimia yang meliputi parameter Total Organic Carbon (TOC), total padatan tersuspensi (TSS), ammonia, pH, kekeruhan dan daya hantar listrik (DHL). Konsentrasi ideal/tepat untuk klorinasi sampel air ditentukan berdasarkan kebutuhan klorin yang menyisakan residu klorin sebesar 0,5 mg Cl2/L selama 24 jam. Kandungan TOC sampel air Sungai Maruni dan air Kali SP 6 diperoleh berturut-turut sebesar 0,5 mg C/L dan 17,2 mg C/L. Kedua sampel air diklorinasi dengan konsentrasi klorin berturut-turut sebesar 3,44 mg Cl2/L dan 10,36 mg Cl2/L. Pada air Sungai Maruni, konsentrasi THM (yang dibaca sebagai kloroform) yang terbentuk adalah sebesar 6,5 µg/L dan air Kali SP 6 sebesar 577,5 µg/L. Kadar kloroform yang terbentuk pada sampel air Sungai Maruni sangat rendah dibandingkan baku mutu yang dipersyaratkan menurut Keputusan Menteri Kesehatan RI No. 907 tahun 2002 tentang syarat-syarat dan pengawasan kualitas air minum, yaitu sebesar 200 µg/L, sehingga air Sungai Maruni dapat diolah secara klorinasi untuk dijadikan sebagai air minum.
Some statistics about Tropical Sandpile Model
Authors: Kalinin Nikita , Prieto Yulieth
Published: June 2023

Tropical sandpile model (or linearized sandpile model) is the only known
continuous geometric model exhibiting self-organised criticality. This model
represents the scaling limit behavior of a small perturbation of the maximal
stable sandpile state on a big subset of $\mathbb Z^2$. Given a set $P$ of
points in a compact convex domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^2$ this linearized
model produces a tropical polynomial $G_P{\bf 0}_\Omega$.
Here we present some quantitative statistical characteristics of this model
and some speculative explanations. Namely, we study the dependence between the
number $n$ of randomly dropped points
$P=\{p_1,\dots,p_n\}\subset[0,1]^2=\Omega$ and the degree of the tropical
polynomial $G_{P}{\bf 0}_\Omega$. We also study the distributions of the
coefficients of $G_{P}{\bf 0}_\Omega$ and the correlation between them. This
paper's main (experimental) result is that the tropical curve $C(G_{P}{\bf
0}_\Omega)$ defined by $G_{P}{\bf 0}_\Omega$ is a small perturbation of the
standard square grid lines. This explains a previously known fact that most of
the edges of the tropical curve $C(G_{P}{\bf 0}_\Omega)$ are of directions
$(1,0),(0,1),(1,1),(-1,1)$.
The main theoretical result is that $C(G_{P}{\bf 0}_\Omega)\setminus (P\cap
\partial\Omega)$, i.e. the tropical curve in $\Omega^\circ$ with marked points
$P$ removed, is a tree.
Fictional Stories: The learning strategy to mitigates challenges of reading comprehension for university students
Authors: Moloi Tshepang Jacob , Adegoriolu Emmanuel Tobi
Published: June 2023

Reading comprehension is the ability to understand the text, decode and infer its meaning according to reader’s level of comprehension. Similarly, reading is the ability to deduce, critique and construct the attributes of the text, hence reading and reading comprehension are intertwined and embedded into the skill to analyse the meaning of the text in general and synthesize the interpreting of your own understanding in particular to the text. Despite this prerequisite skill; there are challenges which impede the reading comprehension and as the results the paper intimates these challenges of reading comprehension using critical theory as a conceptual framework. It further employs participatory action research as a technique whereby participants were purposively sampled and interviewed in a semi-structured interview. Equally, the results are analysed using critical discourse analysis were it was established that lack of collaborative learning, exposure to informational text, students’ prior knowledge and punctuation marks are the core attributes to the challenges of reading comprehension. In brief, the paper contends that the use of fictional stories as the learning strategy can enhance reading comprehension of first year students.
The Enhancement of Pedagogical Capital by Civil Technology Teachers when Engaged with Practical Assessment Task: A Curriculum Transformation Legacy
Authors: Mtshali Thokozani Isaac , Singh-Pillay Asheena
Published: June 2023

Within the South African context, there are perennial curriculum reforms of technical subjects, for example civil technology, which is offered from grade 10 to 12 at secondary school level. Amidst these curriculum reforms there is a shortage of technical curriculum advisors to capacitate teachers for the implementation of the revised curricula and a paucity of studies on how to enhance pedagogical capital. This undermines teachers’ efforts in giving learners adequate industrial skills. In this conceptual study, we learn that teachers are now having autonomy to prepare, implement and assess the self-made Practical Assessment Task (PAT) without close pedagogical guidance from their stakeholders. As such, this conceptual study brings strategies that will assist teachers in maximising their pedagogical capital to cope with the recent curriculum change. This study found that indeed there are far too many expectations that civil technology teachers must accomplish before their learners can be adequately equipped with hands-on skills. A pedagogical capital framework was proposed to assist curriculum advisors and implementors to engage positively with PAT whilst upholding a global quality standard. This study recommends that the proposed framework could be applied to other technical subjects like engineering graphics and design, electrical technology and mechanical technology as they are faced with similar pedagogical challenges.
The Role of Culture in Shaping the Curriculum of Higher Education in South Africa
Authors: Moremoholo Tsekelo Patrick
Published: June 2023

Over the past two decades, the South African higher education (HE) sector has highlighted the usefulness of a locally relevant curriculum that incorporates culture. There is also some research calling for the integration of culture and an emphasis on the Africanized curriculum. However, these related concepts (culture and Africanization) have yet to be sufficiently applied in the HE curriculum as part of the HE transformation drive. The present paper aims to present a review of the literature regarding the role of culture on curriculum transformation and the Africanization of academic material in the context of the HE sector in South Africa. The primary research method for this study is the review of the selected research findings containing issues related to culture and its role in curriculum transformation. The findings of this review reveal that the concepts of culture, and more specifically the Africanization of the localized curriculum (in the HE sector), are not yet adequately understood, even though progress has been made over the last two decades. The inheritance of colonial Eurocentric views is believed to be hindering this progress. Higher education can in this regard play a significant role in achieving the goal of a locally relevant curriculum.
Teachers’ Perceptions of Paper-Based GIS Implementation in The Rural Learning Ecology
Authors: Mkhize Thulasizwe Fredrick
Published: June 2023

In South Africa, paper-based geographic information system (PBGIS) was introduced as a strategy to resolve the hindrances in schools without computers in implementing GIS. This study explores the geography teachers’ perceptions of implementing PBGIS in a rural learning ecology. In this context, PBGIS is defined as teaching and learning of GIS utilising topographic and orthographic maps, while rural learning ecology refers to a school in a rural environment consistent with how learners learn in a particular context. The unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) constituted the theoretical framework used to understand the geography teachers’ perceptions in this inquiry. Qualitative research methods, and semi-structured interviews were used to generate data to answer the research question. Two geography teachers from a rural learning ecology were purposively selected to participate in this study. The data generated from the field was then analysed thematically utilising a deductive and inductive approach. The findings showed the following: inadequate teacher training; teachers are unsure about the resources required for PBGIS; lack of teaching time; and the complexity of PBGIS concepts, and improper PBGIS examination setting. This study proposes that the Department of Basic Education (DBE), in association with universities, train teachers and provide resources; support teachers by reviewing the time allocated in the Annual Teaching Plan (ATP) for teaching PBGIS; engage teachers about ways to simplify PBGIS concepts when teaching; and guide teachers on the approaches that must be used when teaching PBGIS.
Teachers' Views on the Application of Educational Technologies in the Classroom: A Case of Selected Tshwane West Secondary Schools in Gauteng

The teaching profession is moving toward the use of educational technologies (ET) in the form of tablets, laptops, and reliable internet in the classroom to improve the quality of teaching and learning in schools. The use of these tools in the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) is believed to positively impact how teachers deliver the curriculum. Teachers’ views on the application of educational technologies in the classroom are examined in this paper. The opinions of the teachers are crucial since they could influence whether or not the technologies are accepted. This study used a qualitative approach through semi-structured interviews with 12 teachers from one district in Gauteng province. A purposive sampling method was used to select these teachers on the basis that Gauteng is the leading province in ICT integration in schools. Data were analysed thematically from teachers’ responses. The Activity Theory framework was used to underpin the study. According to the findings, teachers voiced their dissatisfaction with the use of these technologies and other issues they face, such as poor technical support, a lack of equipment for maintaining educational technologies, inferior educational technology infrastructure, and unreliable Internet connectivity. Additionally, teachers called on the Department of Basic Education to provide professional development in technology integration and to equip schools with infrastructure as well as Wi-Fi.
