The Importance of National Technology Initiative and the Role of Bilişim Vadisi in Global Competition
Authors: İbrahimcioğlu Ahmet Serdar
Published: December 2022

To prevent monopolization in scientific and technological developments due to globalization, countries are developing their own technology strategies. For these strategies to succeed, current developments should be followed and the initiatives put forth should not be disconnected from the social and cultural consciousness. Within this context, the total independence in the economic and technological fields vision of Türkiye is named the National Technology Initiative. Bilişim Vadisi plays a significant role in transferring the success of Turkish Airlines in the defense industry to civilian technologies to actualize the vision of the National Technology Initiative. The National Technology Initiative bases its strategy on three concepts. These concepts are “indigenous”, which means belonging to a certain area in geographical terms; “national”, which means belonging to a certain nation; and “authenticity,” which means that a product with an intellectual value does not directly include other intellectual outputs but has its own specific intellectual value. Bilişim Vadisi is acting in accordance with these values in terms of the development of the brands within itself and shaping its ecosystem according to a model that supports the companies developing key technologies from end to end. In Bilişim Vadisi, which mainly focuses on conducting studies on technologies such as mobility, network technologies, cybersecurity, design technologies, smart cities and gaming technologies to strengthen the ecosystem, there are specific clustering specific to every area. To get rid of external dependency and provide the proper basis for import substitution and National Technology Initiative, human capital should be provided. 42 Software Schools, organized by Bilişim Vadisi, is an ecosystem where important steps are taken to improve human capital through Robotics Coding and Artificial Intelligence Workshop, education camps, workshops and entrepreneurship events. As mentioned in detail throughout the article, it is making a great contribution to the import substitution process within the scope of civilian technologies through brands such as Togg, AirCar, Business Incubator, Design Clustering Center and DIGIAGE. As a result, Bilişim Vadisi plays the role of being the greatest technology development area in Türkiye to actualize the human capital and import substitution strategies of the National Technology Initiative.

Published: December 2022

Türkiye, with its geographical advantages and the products it produces in the field of agriculture, is making significant progress in the agricultural field day by day. The effects of technologies used in agriculture within the food, agriculture, energy chain and the increasing impact on related sectors and application areas have made the development of domestic and national technologies in many areas within the agriculture and food production chain even more strategic. The concept of national, on the other hand, refers to what belongs to a nation. The National Technology Initiative is of critical importance as the key to our country's ability to protect the data of its citizens and to develop and produce strategically valuable technology products with its own capabilities. The National Technology Initiative aims to contribute to the sectoral roadmaps, which are prepared in order to increase production efficiency, increase the efficiency of input use and reduce foreign dependency with alternative sources through energy efficiency, with technological product-based targets in sectors such as food, agriculture and livestock. Among these sectors, agriculture, like all economic sectors, uses a wide range of modern technologies. After the pandemic, agriculture has become much more technology and information intensive. Today, it requires much more than farming, that is, more integration and integration with other sectors, necessitating integration through digitalization. Realizing a national strategy to support national technologies is a process that takes into account the country's own rural development goals and includes all stakeholders in the industry. Türkiye's agriculture will reach the position it deserves in the global competitive environment brought by the digital age, in addition to current policies, this National Technology Initiative will be handled with the right strategy and policies that take into account the needs and expectations of all stakeholders. In this study, national technologies developed in our country in the field of agriculture are discussed and important information about their use and studies in this field are presented. It is expected that the national technologies developed in this context will increasingly continue to contribute and support the producers and farmers in the production and productivity of our country's agriculture in the future.

Published: December 2022

This study aims to describe maqashid al-Syariah in terms of the philosophical aspects of maqashid al-Syariah, the relevance of maqashid al-Syariah with contemporary ijtihad. This research uses descriptive qualitative. Data were collected through interviews, observation, and documentation. This study uses data analysis techniques, which consist of stages of data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the research on the relevance of maqashid al-Shariah with contemporary ijtihad show the philosophy of maqashid al-Syariah. Contemporary ijtihad also tries to see significant changes in Islamic law from time to time, namely changes from the family aspect, women's aspect, and worship aspect. In an effort to develop Islamic legal thought, especially in providing understanding and clarity on various contemporary legal issues, mujtahids need to know the purpose of Islamic law. In addition, the purpose of the law needs to be known in order to identify whether a legal provision can still be applied to a particular case or because of changes in social structure, the law can no longer be maintained. Thus, knowledge of Maqāṣid al-Shari'ah is the key to the success of the mujtahid in his ijtihad.
THE INFLUENCE OF IBN QAYYIM AL-JAUZIYAH IN THE REALITY OF MUSLIMS TODAY
Authors: Jamaluddin Samsidar , Kurniati Kurniati , Misbahuddin Misbahuddin
Published: December 2022

Ibn Qayyim invites and calls on Muslims to ijtihad and leave taklid, Ibn Qayyim al-Jauziyah is a scholar who is very persistent in fighting blind taklid and calling for freedom of thought, but still clinging to the main points of Islamic teachings and the creed of the Salaf. In Ibn Qayyim's view, ijtihad must develop in accordance with the development of situations and conditions in various places and times. Therefore he put forward a rule: Fi taghayyir al-fatawa wa ikhtilafiha bi hasbi taghayyir al-azminah wa al-amkinah wa al-ahwal wa al-niyat wa al-'awa'id. According to him, an important factor in formulating legal provisions or legal stipulations must be related to five things, namely al-azminah (the situation of the times), al-amkinah (the situation of the place), al-ahwal (the circumstances), al-niyat (the cause of desires), and al-awa'id (customs). All of this affects the development of law, so that Islamic law can truly be lived as a law that is rahmatan lil 'alamin, able to answer the challenges of changing social dynamics of society. Thus Islamic law remains suitable for all times and places.

This article explores the dynamics of natural disasters throughout the world in recent years, and tries to relate their economic and human impact based on the degree of development of the impacted countries, in this sense, it was identified that natural disasters hazards are random with respect to geographical distribution, the most common being floods and droughts, these are strongly correlated with the current climatic situation, however, the impact is much more significant in underdeveloped countries compared to developed ones, from the point of view In human and economic terms, the developed countries experience greater losses, this is explained by the vulnerability of the population in third world countries, with significant percentages of their population settled in many cases in risk areas and without the possibility of resettling as a measure preventive, while in developed countries, infrastructural development, makes its impact economic is magnified. From the point of view of human mobility, we can already speak of climatic migrants, due to prolonged droughts and frequent floods, communities impacted by these phenomena move in large groups to urban centers inside or outside the borders creating geographic resettlements that in many cases are in areas at risk from natural disasters and are again in conditions of vulnerability, in addition, the fact that they are massive transfers, without the possibility of adapting and integrating, causes resettlement to be also cultural and cause tensions with the people in the resettlement sites, turning this into a social problem.

This research describes the use of oral expressive microskills of Luis Fernandez Ruiz High school students at the 2021-2022 school year. This project has a qualitative approach. It addresses a social fact as the application of expressive microskills in the stages of planning, development and evaluation of oral speech. The results of this research demonstrate that in the planning stage those under investigation apply the following expressive microskills: comunicative intention, identifying the kind of speech, script writing, evocation of experienced, but, they do not consider: identification of needs, the stablishment of objective setting, the discursive situation, voice log level identification. In development, they apply the following microskills: discursive sequence, assesment of the discursive sutuation, tone of voice, strategies of initiation, development and closure, hierarchy, coherence and cohesion of ideas, public reaction and spelling. But, they do not apply: adequacy of speech, complexity in sentences, paralinguistic elements, adaptation of the speech to the context, age and level of education of the audience. In the evaluation of oral speech, the microskills they apply are: valuing diversity, correcting mistakes, applying improvements, anticipation, scenario forecasting and they do not take into account: recognition of successes and failures and consolidation of successes. This leads to the conclusion that those students under investigation apply expressive oral microskills that affect directly the quality of oral speech

Anchoring Bias – A Barrier to the Art of Healing
Authors: Ibrahim Ramzi , Haq Maham , Takamatsu Chelsea
Published: December 2022

“Patient A” is a 25-year-old male with a history of type 1 diabetes mellitus complicated by presumed diabetic gastroparesis, who presents to the hospital with intractable nausea and vomiting. Upon first impression, the patient is agitated and hostile. “Patient A” is a poor historian, exhibiting limited medical insight and providing a contradictory history. A quick review of his chart details a longstanding history of drug abuse with multiple hospital visits in the last 2 years for similar presenting complaints of refractory vomiting totaling 15-20 episodes per day. “Patient A” is requesting medications to help with the burning discomfort associated with his nausea and vomiting; however, clinicians cautiously treat his pain due to his extensive history of substance abuse.   The current provider forgoes another comprehensive work-up, as his symptoms were previously investigated at prior presentations for the same complaints. A repeat hemoglobin A1C is deemed unnecessary because of known poorly-controlled diabetes. Additionally, further inquiry into the patient’s medical compliance is disregarded, given his chart previously classified him as a “non-compliant patient.” During hospitalization, “Patient A” is managed with strict glucose control, carbohydrate-controlled diet, antiemetics with gradual resolution of presenting symptoms, and repeated conversations emphasizing diabetic medical compliance which were poorly received by the patient.

Published: December 2022

The recent advancement of information technology allows educators and students to interact with Artificial Intelligence (AI) through smart classroom channels. This channel is one of the latest technology-enhanced learning (TEL) that provides a learning environment with educators and students interaction during the learning process. Currently, smart classrooms are believed to change current dull teaching methods and enhance the students’ learning experience. Hence, this paper shows a comprehensive investigation of applying AI components to an intelligent classroom system (a.k.a virtual classroom system) that provides hand gestures and face detection through e-learning classrooms. Machine Learning libraries are implemented and compared on three machines with varying hardware specifications and capabilities. As a result of this study, Tensorflow Handpose provides more accuracy than MediaPipe Hands, although it requires higher computational capabilities. Face-api.js outperforms TensorFlow and MediaPipe when it comes to executing face detection functions. In addition to the study, the presented face and hand APIs can be adopted in a real time implementation for smart classroom systems.

The partial melting of Earth’s bi-polar ice sheets since the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) has translated into a ~ 120 m amplitude stepwise sea-level rise punctuated by three major meltwater pulses that were tracked and recorded with some of the best accuracy by coral reefs. However, the initial meltwater pulse marking the end of the LGM, at 19 ka, is anchored in only two palaeo reefs (Barbados, Great Barrier Reef). Here, the authors present the analysis of a coralgal reef that thrived along the south-east Papua New Guinea Peninsula outer shelf during this initial pulse. In the cone of a piston core, a shallow Goniastrea retiformis coral colony was retrieved at 111 m below present sea-level and uranium/thorium dated to 19.4 ka BP. This colony had been buried beneath the debris of a proximal coralgal reef before its partial drowning at 14.5 ka BP. Seismic survey data suggest that the reef edifice was established directly on the eroded top of a lowstand shelf-edge delta, partially drowned and then back-stepped towards the south-east in response to three distinct deglacial sea-level pulses and stepwise increases of water column turbidity.

Reef communities at intermediate (10 to 30 m) and mesophotic (~ 30 to 150 m) depths occupy large areas of sea floor but little is known about their potential to accrete vertically, their response to sea-level change and other environmental perturbations. In this study, the authors have examined cores from two holes, M0040A and M0041A, drilled by the International Ocean Drilling Program Expedition 325 along the shelf edge of the modern GBR at 131 m water depth. The objective was to investigate reef growth history at palaeo-water depths > 20 m over a time period spanning 30,000 years, from the end of the Last Glacial period through the last deglaciation. Based on changes in lithologies and biotic components, and a robust chronostratigraphic framework supported by 47 radiometric ages, the authors have identified two episodes of reef growth, one during Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 2 and the other at the onset of the deglaciation, both characterised by abundant microbialite crusts and distinct coral assemblages. Palaeo-water depths range from 30 to 60 m and from 20 to 30 m for the MIS 2 and early deglacial reef sections, respectively. The first episode of reef growth documented in the cores initiated at 27 to 25 ka, possibly in response to increased light availability and change in sedimentation resulting from falling sea-level between 32 and 29 ka from MIS 3 and also to low atmospheric pCO2 at the end of the Last Glacial period. Reef accretion was reduced or ceased sometime between 24 and 19 ka, coinciding with the rapid 20 m sea-level fall of the peak Last Glacial Maximum and minima of SSTs. Reef growth resumed at 19.5 to 18.5 ka, influenced by a period of moderate sea-level rise and increasing sea surface temperatures at the onset of the deglaciation. Reef growth termination at ca. 17 ka correlates with a major episode of reef demise previously identified in adjacent mid and outer terrace cores and linked to reduced water quality combined with rapid deglacial sea-level rise. Vertical accretion (VA) rates were calculated based on two methods: linear visual fitting and Bayesian modelling. The findings show that the highest VA rates are associated with microbialite boundstone. Reef ecosystems dominated by microbialite and corals developed at intermediate and mesophotic depths, and grew vertically at maximum rates of 2 to 5 mm yr-1 depending on the method used, over a period of rapid environmental change during the transition from MIS 3 to MIS 1. Further study needs to explore the potential of modern-type deep coralgal communities to cope with higher rates of sea-level rise predicted this century.

Abstract

The inclusion of cultural content in textbooks has become one of the important issues in language education. In this context, the analysis of English textbooks is necessary to measure whether they are qualified enough to represent local and multicultural elements as well as the target culture. This study aimed to analyze the representation of the contents in four English textbooks used in secondary education in Turkiye. It has been observed the two books prepared in Turkiye and the two books prepared outside Turkiye are different in terms of cultural representation.

The study investigated the impact of social media marketing on the perceptions of e-shopping customers in the City of Santo Tomas, Batangas, Philippines. Specifically, the study aimed to determine its impact on the perceptions of e-shopping customers as to online visibility, social media engagement, social media integration, social media activities, and social media experience. Moreover, the study also identified the important factors on how social media marketing can be more effective. Lastly, the researchers proposed marketing strategies relative to the findings of the study. The study employed a descriptive-quantitative approach using an adapted questionnaire to gather data from a sample of 150 respondents who were conveniently selected. The statistical tools used in the study were frequency and percentage distribution and weighted mean. The study revealed that the sampled e-shopping customers are active users of social media platforms with Facebook being widely used. They are generally engaged in social media everyday with one-third of them spending three or more hours daily. The study revealed that social media marketing have positively impacted the respondents as e-shopping customers relative to their online visibility, social media engagement, social media integration, social media activities, and social media experience. Moreover, the study found out that brand owners need to focus on the timing and consistency of posts to grow a social media audience. Finally, the study recommended the employment of the proposed marketing strategies which were developed by the researchers based on the findings of the study.

The vitality and quality of implementing curriculum reforms and innovations depend on the teacher’s acceptance and concerns about the reforms and innovations. This research examines the concerns of Business Studies teachers about the quality of the implementation of School-Based Assessment (SBA) in the Senior High Schools in Central Region of Ghana. A descriptive, cross-sectional survey design was employed, and the census method involved all the Business Studies teachers. Data was gathered using the adapted Stages of Concern Questionnaire (SoCQ), processed via SPSS version 25.0 and analysed using Mean, Standard Deviations, Relative Intensity Percentile (RIP) and Factorial Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA). The study discovered that Business Studies teachers have the most intense concerns self-concerns (Awareness, Informational and Personal) least intense concerns at Impact concerns (e.g., Consequence) about SBA implementation in the curriculum. Further, the study established that Personal, Consequence, Collaboration and Refocusing Concerns significantly depend on teachers’ workload and SBA training. At the same time, gender, age, and years of teaching experience do not significantly influence teachers’ concerns about SBA implementation. The Business Studies teachers were not very much interested and involved in the SBA implementation. They are non-users and resistant to SBA implementation in the curriculum. The study recommended that the MoE/GES and NaCCA, in partnership with school administrators and GABET, should frequently organise ongoing training, workshops, seminars, conferences, and professional development courses for teachers to use and implement SBA in the curriculum. The MoE/GES should provide SBA logistics (tools, equipment) and materials needed for SBA implementation.
Accounting Economic Growth Differential of Indian States
Authors: Sinha Jitendra Kumar
Published: December 2022

This paper uses a combination of Growth Accounting Analysis and Regression Analysis to examine the economic growth experience of twelve major Indian States – six high-income and industrially developed; and six low-income and industrially underdeveloped, over the period 2000-21, through the decomposition of the total factor productivity in major sectors of the economy. The performance of the Low Income States has been perceptibly superior to that of the High Income States. All the sectors in each of the two categories of states have undergone a temporal deceleration in total factor productivity growth, thereby pointing toward the ineffectiveness of economic reform measures to induce progress in the states. However, in the overall Indian economy, various sectors (except Secondary and Tertiary-2) experienced productivity improvement over time. Further, total factor productivity contributed the most to output growth during the first decade (2000-01 to 2010-11), while labor acted as a prime mover during the second decade (2011-12 to 2020-21). The total factor productivity growth acted as the major source of economic growth in the aggregated Indian economy and signifies that although liberalization policies have shown desirable results at the aggregated level, there has been a considerable variation in the speed and extent of implementation of the reform measures across the states. Thus, for the states to surge ahead, it is imperative to address regional problems to enhance total factor productivity.

Published: December 2022

The Covid-19 pandemic which began at the end of 2019 has not yet passed, several industries are still surviving, namely food, pharmaceuticals and hospitals, technology, financial services and education. This is what encourages companies to carry out Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) strategies and maybe even change the plans that were planned the previous year. The research method used is qualitative with analytical description. There are 20 companies engaged in the Food and Beverage sector in 2020 which report CSR reports from 26 companies in their Annual Reports. Only 4 companies that do not specialize in CSR for Covid-19, the remaining 16 companies have taken concrete actions for employees and the community.
