This study explores digital group solidarity as a new typology in the theory of moral embeddedness by Beckert (2005). Digital group solidarity is understood as a form of group solidarity that is constructed through digital interactions in a market arena. This study is different from that of Scott (2020) which more focuses on censorship policies on homosexual movies. It is also in contrast with a study by Nurmajesty et al. (2022) which is in reference to Beckert (2009) regarding the mechanism of commodity valuation of the jamu (Indonesian herbal medicine) market in Indonesia based on physical and symbolic values. The description of the characteristics of moral embeddedness, particularly group solidarity exchange, in the digital realm of the homosexual movie industry is mapped through TNA and SNA using the Netlytic and Gephi software and supported by polls via Twitter and observations in several chat groups of homosexual movie lovers. Referring to the conducted survey, 71.85% of consumers of homosexual movies use Twitter to communicate with each other instead of chat groups and offline meetings. Beckert (2005) argues that the formation of group solidarity is primordial based, while this study discovers that digital group solidarity is relatively unrelated to primordial ties. In contrast to Beckert (2005) who observes group solidarity from only one side of the market (either producers or consumers), this study reveals that digital group solidarity can occur in both arenas and places more emphasis on the preference side. Digital group solidarity is also revealed as a slice of cooperation and group solidarity in Beckert (2005), since both ego and alter ego in digital group solidarity tend to be observed as benefits.

Limbah baterai lithium-ion diproyeksikan akan meningkat seiring dengan peningkatan jumlah kendaraan listrik. Teknologi daur ulang baterai menjadi perhatian penting terutama dalam mendukung percepatan program Kendaraan Bermotor Listrik Berbasis Baterai (KBLBB). Penelitian ini berfokus pada studi tekno-ekonomi pembangunan pilot plant daur ulang baterai Lithium Manganese Oxide (LMO) dan Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) secara pirometalurgi. Kapasitas input daur ulang baterai LFP dan LMO adalah 8.000 ton/tahun.  Nilai Internal Rate of Return (IRR), Net Present Value (NPV), Payback Period (PBP), dan Profitability Index (PI) daur ulang baterai LMO berturut-turut adalah 12,57%, Rp.7.583.346.464,-, 5,85 tahun, dan 2,39. Sedangkan untuk daur ulang baterai LFP berturut-turut adalah 11,15%,  -Rp.11.235.266.123,-, 6,23 tahun, dan 2,32. Hal ini mengindikasikan daur ulang baterai LMO lebih menjanjikan dibandingkan daur ulang baterai LFP. Dari segi analisis sensitivitas, diketahui bahwa daur ulang baterai LMO dan LFP ini lebih sensitif terhadap perubahan harga produk dibandingkan dengan perubahan harga reagen dan nilai OPEX. Emisi gas CO2, pada proses daur ulang baterai LMO lebih sedikit daripada baterai LFP, sehingga pencemaran lingkungan yang dihasilkan lebih minim. Untuk meminimalisir emisi gas ini, dapat dilakukan instalasi peralatan wet scrubber dan implementasi sistem Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS)/Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS).

Authors: Almuqati Jamilah , Alfaki Mysara , Alkarani Ahmed
Published: May 2023

Background: Whenever an organisational change is mentioned in any research context, the uncertainty concept is usually mentioned as it is or as synonymous with lack of information, ineffective communication, and/or weak feedback. Since no previous studies have investigated the organisation’s readiness to change in Saudi Arabia, this study will provide empirical evidence regarding these critical components.Purpose: The study aimed to explore how healthcare providers in the Ministry of Health perceive the ministry’s readiness to change.Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional correlational design was used for this study. Three public hospitals under the Ministry of Health were involved in recruiting 420 healthcare providers using a convenient quota sampling. A personal data sheet and the organisational readiness for implementing change (ORIC) scale were used for data collection. ANOVA and t-tests were used to analyze the data.Results: The total response rate was 70%. The participants in the study perceived their organisation to be highly ready to change (3.76±0.73). The organisational readiness to change perceived by nurses (3.86+0.98) was significantly greater than that perceived by physicians (3.56+0.90) and allied healthcare providers (3.61+0.92), with a p-value of 0.001. In addition, the organisational readiness to change was significantly related to the participants’ specialty, age, experience, and gender (p<0.05).Conclusion: The findings showed that participants believed that their organisation was highly ready to change. Participants’ specialty, age, experience, and gender were significantly related to organisational readiness to change. This study recommends that leaders need to be proactive in managing changes by assessing the change readiness in their organisation and setting out plans to prepare the organisation.

Authors: Dewi Risma Arlyani , Sutawardana Jon Hafan , Nistiandani Ana
Published: May 2023

Background: The COVID-19 booster vaccination proposes a spike in cases due to new infection variants. According to the Health Belief Model (HBM), vaccination acceptance is a health change behavior measured by perception. However, more information is needed about the relationship between public perception and future acceptance of the COVID-19 booster vaccination.Purpose: This research aimed to analyze the relationship between the perception of COVID-19 vaccination based on the HBM and the acceptance of COVID-19 booster vaccination.Methods: The research used observational analytics design with a cross-sectional approach conducted at the community of a public health center in Jember Regency, Indonesia. Purposive sampling was used to recruit 387 respondents. The inclusion criteria were people aged >18 who had received a complete primary vaccination. The research instruments consisted of some questionnaires: respondent characteristics, perceptions of COVID-19 vaccination based on the HBM, and the acceptance of COVID-19 booster vaccination. Data were analyzed using Chi-square and a logistic regression test.Results: The results showed that most respondents accepted the COVID-19 booster vaccine (67.4%). There was a significant relationship between perception’s subscales of COVID-19 vaccination, such as perceived susceptibility (p=0.001), perceived severity (p=0.001), perceived benefits (p=0.001), perceived barriers (p=0.001), cues to action (p=0.001) and the acceptance of the COVID-19 booster vaccination. Cues to action were the most dominant factor related to the acceptance of the COVID-19 booster vaccination (OR=5.265; 95%CI=3.073-9.022; p<0.001).Conclusion: Positive perceptions of all HBM subscales, which showed a good perception in the community, indicated the high acceptance of the COVID-19 booster vaccine. For clinical practice, this research can be developed by surveying patients who have comorbidities.
Managing Othering from a Leadership Perspective
Authors: Steinmetz Carl H. D. , Salim Dlima
Published: May 2023

Goals: How to counter othering is the main topic of this article. There is an important role for government leaders, politicians, CEOs, chief executives and service leaders in addressing othering. Othering is more widespread than we think. The academic literature focuses mainly on belonging. Perhaps because this focus serves the neoliberal agenda of competition and success. This article also discusses the various theories related to othering. Professor Dr. Lewis R. Gordon's philosophical work on othering is crucial. Method: A literature review and empirical research, mainly large and small surveys, were used. Results. Othering is a many-headed monster. Othering facilitates (neo-) colonization and (modern) slavery, wars and genocide, institutional and structural racism, the manipulation of a society to make it a class society with a significant class of haves and have-nots, and everyday racism between (groups of) individuals. The approach is multifaceted. To counter othering, lawsuits against corporations and institutions can be used to enforce reparations (aimed at restoring the perpetrator's morale) and further by activating witness interventions. Because social media facilitate othering, it is useful to distinguish between the real and virtual worlds. This is also because the effects of these worlds merge. Othering through social media is very threatening. In this article, a "Human Appreciation Ratio" was developed. The concrete concept questionnaire is included in Appendix 1. This ratio is a measure of the sense of belonging and othering experiences. With this ratio, companies, institutions, and governments can determine how well they deserve the labels they have given themselves, such as "diverse and inclusive”. The theoretical underpinnings of othering arose long ago when Westerners viewed non-Westerners as inferior. This began during the Enlightenment with the distinction between the so-called traditional world (non-Western world) and the modern world (Western world, especially Europe).

Authors: Sioud Rim , Amara Sofiene , Gaied Chortane Sabri , Khalifa Riadh
Published: May 2023

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of a reduced rim diameter (diameter 0.30 m) upon the kinematics of basketball free-throws. Ten male basketball players (mean ± s; age 17.1 ± 0.4 years, height 1.85 ± 1.43 m, mass 79.0 ± 5.3 kg) performed 8 direct successful free throws; 4 when using a standard 0.45 m diameter rim, and 4 with an 0.3 m diameter rim. Ball release parameters and joint angles at ball release were determined for each participant. The smaller rim was associated with significant increases (p < 0.0001) in ball release angle, ball release velocity, ball release height and shoulder joint angle at release. The reduced diameter rim can be advocated as a tactic for developing a higher ball release angle when training the shooting technique of young basketball players; this is likely to maximize the probability of a successful free-throw when attempted into a standard rim.

Seizures Cause Prolonged Impairment of Ventilation, CO2Chemoreception and Thermoregulation

Published: May 2023

Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) has been linked to respiratory dysfunction, but the mechanisms underlying this association remain unclear. Here we found that both focal and generalized convulsive seizures (GCSs) in epilepsy patients caused a prolonged decrease in the hypercapnic ventilatory response (HCVR; a measure of respiratory CO2chemoreception). We then studiedScn1aR1407X/+(Dravet syndrome; DS) andScn8aN1768D/+(D/+) mice of both sexes, two models of SUDEP, and found that convulsive seizures caused a postictal decrease in ventilation and severely depressed the HCVR in a subset of animals. Those mice with severe postictal depression of the HCVR also exhibited transient postictal hypothermia. A combination of blunted HCVR and abnormal thermoregulation is known to occur with dysfunction of the serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) system in mice. Depleting 5-HT withpara-chlorophenylalanine (PCPA) mimicked seizure-induced hypoventilation, partially occluded the postictal decrease in the HCVR, exacerbated hypothermia, and increased postictal mortality in DS mice. Conversely, pretreatment with the 5-HT agonist fenfluramine reduced postictal inhibition of the HCVR and hypothermia. These results are consistent with the previous observation that seizures cause transient impairment of serotonergic neuron function, which would be expected to inhibit the many aspects of respiratory control dependent on 5-HT, including baseline ventilation and the HCVR. These results provide a scientific rationale to investigate the interictal and/or postictal HCVR as noninvasive biomarkers for those at high risk of seizure-induced death, and to prevent SUDEP by enhancing postictal 5-HT tone.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTThere is increasing evidence that seizure-induced respiratory dysfunction contributes to the pathophysiology of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). However, the cellular basis of this dysfunction has not been defined. Here, we show that seizures impair CO2chemoreception in some epilepsy patients. In two mouse models of SUDEP we found that generalized convulsive seizures impaired CO2chemoreception, and induced hypothermia, two effects reported with serotonergic neuron dysfunction. The defects in chemoreception and thermoregulation were exacerbated by chemical depletion of serotonin and reduced with fenfluramine, suggesting that seizure-induced respiratory dysfunction may be due to impairment of serotonin neuron function. These findings suggest that impaired chemoreception because of transient inhibition of serotonergic neurons may contribute to the pathophysiology of SUDEP.

Learning and behavior activate cue-specific patterns of sparsely distributed cells and synapses called ensembles that undergo memory-encoding engram alterations. While Fos is often used to label selectively activated cell bodies and identify neuronal ensembles, there is no comparable endogenous marker to label activated synapses and identify synaptic ensembles. For the purpose of identifying candidate synaptic activity markers, we optimized a flow cytometry of synaptoneurosome (FCS) procedure for assessing protein alterations in activated synapses from male and female rats. After injecting yellow fluorescent protein (YFP)-expressing adeno-associated virus into medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) to label terminals in nucleus accumbens (NAc) of rats, we injected 20 mg/kg cocaine in a novel context (cocaine+novelty) to activate synapses, and prepared NAc synaptoneurosomes 0–60 min following injections. For FCS, we used commercially available antibodies to label presynaptic and postsynaptic markers synaptophysin and PSD-95 as well as candidate markers of synaptic activity [activity-regulated cytoskeleton protein (Arc), CaMKII and phospho-CaMKII, ribosomal protein S6 (S6) and phospho-S6, and calcineurin and phospho-calcineurin] in YFP-labeled synaptoneurosomes. Cocaine+novelty increased the percentage of S6-positive synaptoneurosomes at 5–60 min and calcineurin-positive synaptoneurosomes at 5–10 min. Electron microscopy verified that S6 and calcineurin levels in synaptoneurosomes were increased 10 min after cocaine+novelty. Pretreatment with the anesthetic chloral hydrate blocked cocaine+novelty-induced S6 and calcineurin increases in synaptoneurosomes, and novel context exposure alone (without cocaine) increased S6, both of which indicate that these increases were due to neural activity per se. Overall, FCS can be used to study protein alterations in activated synapses coming from specifically labeled mPFC projections to NAc.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTMemories are formed during learning and are stored in the brain by long-lasting molecular and cellular alterations called engrams formed within specific patterns of cue-activated neurons called neuronal ensembles. While Fos has been used to identify activated ensemble neurons and the engrams within them, we have not had a similar marker for activated synapses that can be used to identify synaptic engrams. Here we developed a procedure for high-throughput in-line analysis of flow cytometry of synaptoneurosome (FCS) and found that ribosomal S6 protein and calcineurin were increased in activated mPFC–NAc synapses. FCS can be used to study protein alterations in activated synapses within specifically labeled circuits.

The aim of the article. The purpose of the article is to determine the key indicators for evaluating the effectiveness of the functioning of the marketing information system of industrial enterprises. The results of the analyses. The effective organization of the work of the marketing information system expands the possibilities of marketing activities due to the ability to accumulate and quickly process information. Such improvement can significantly improve the quality of strategic decisions and rationalize the processes of development of the marketing complex. Areas of improvement are: systems of analytical processing and detection of regularities; data organization and management systems; processing of large amounts of information; access to necessary sources of information; working with the necessary information formats; quick collection and processing of information; influence on the profitability of the enterprise, determination of a set of indicators for evaluating the effectiveness of the functioning of the marketing information system. Conclusions and direction for further research. In order to make balanced marketing decisions, it is necessary to have information about existing practical experience in solving problems similar to one's own, as well as by what methods they are implemented. This is achieved by applying a benchmarking approach. At the same time, the management of the company should take into account that their own experience is studied, researched and analyzed through communication links. Due to such interaction, the level of substantiation of management decisions increases, and thus the competitiveness of the enterprise itself. In the modern practice of building marketing information systems, the prevailing principle is that first all the necessary marketing information is covered, and then the information necessary for managers of a certain level of management is accumulated from it. Modern information technologies, using the capabilities of global information networks (Internet, Bitnet, DECnet and others) allow marketing departments to receive relevant information in a timely manner and in the necessary volumes.

Published: May 2023

Teaching English language learners is the initial phase of language education programs for English language teachers when they are introduced to a child's world, developmental traits, needs, and interests as well as teaching and learning approaches for their learners. This study, which employs the qualitative approach of narrative inquiry, shares personal accounts of the researcher's experiences and expectations in an attempt to expand knowledge about the most effective ways to teach English to young students. The results imply that English teachers should motivate ELLs to acquire the language, offer interactive language worksheets as in-class activities, and see mistakes as learning opportunities. The findings also revealed how important it is to include technology into learning environments and give ELLs opportunities to practice their language skills. The findings of the study have implication for both present and future research, but primarily for English practice and education.
Progestin-related breast volume changes in a woman with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome (CAIS)
Authors: Dijkman Benthe A M , Blok Christel J M de , Dreijerink Koen M A , Heijer Martin den
Published: May 2023

A 31-year-old woman with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome (CAIS) experienced breast volume fluctuations during biphasic hormone replacement therapy consisting of estradiol and cyclical dydrogesterone, a progestin. 3D breast volume measurements showed a 100 cc volume (17%) difference between estradiol monotherapy and combined estradiol and dydrogesterone treatment. Progestogen-dependent breast volume changes have not been reported in the literature. Our findings suggest a correlation between progestogen use and breast volume. Due to the rapid cyclical changes, we hypothesize that the effect is caused by fluid retention.

Learning points

There is limited reports available on the effects of progesterone on breast development and volume.

3D imaging provides an easy-to-use method to quantify breast volume.

The patient in our case description clearly showed that cyclic progesterone use might induce substantial cyclic changes in breast volume.

In women with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome (CAIS), monotherapy with estrogen or continuous supplementation of progesterone might be preferable over cyclic progesterone use.
Superior capsular reconstruction: current evidence and limits
Authors: Claro Rui , Fonte Hélder
Published: May 2023

The treatment of rotator cuff tears (RCTs) has evolved. Nonsurgical treatment is adequate for many patients; however, for those for whom surgical treatment is indicated, rotator cuff repair provides reliable pain relief and good functional results. However, massive and irreparable RCTs are a significant challenge for both patients and surgeons.

Superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) has become increasingly popular in recent years. It works by passively restoring the superior restriction of the humeral head, thus restoring the pair of forces and improving the kinematics of the glenohumeral joint. Early clinical results using fascia lata (FL) autograft were promising in terms of pain relief and function.

The procedure has evolved, and some authors have suggested that FL autografts could be replaced by other methods. However, surgical techniques for SCR are highly variable, and patient indications remain undefined. There are concerns that the available scientific evidence does not support the popularity of the procedure.

This review aimed to critically evaluate the biomechanics, indications, procedural considerations, and clinical outcomes associated with the SCR procedure.

Published: May 2023

The relevance of geriatric ankle fractures is continuously increasing.

Treatment of these patients remains challenging and requires adapted diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, as compliance to partial weight bearing is difficult to maintain compared to younger patients.

In addition, in the elderly even low impact injuries may lead to severe soft tissue trauma, influencing timing and operative strategies.

Recently, the direct posterolateral approach and plate fixation techniques, angular stable implants as well as intramedullary nailing of the distal fibula have been found to improve stategical concepts.

This article aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the diagnostic and recent aspects with respect to how this difficult entity of injuries should be approached.
The Influence of Manager’s Trustworthiness on Subordinate’s Trust in the Manager
Authors: Kameneckienė Vaida
Published: May 2023

Trust in the organization makes the leadership for the manager easier, contributes to the achievement of the goals. Real and sustainable trust determines the reliability of the entire organization and supports the corporate reputation. A person’s trust in another person eventually leads to the trust of the entire system. Behaviour is a significant determinant of organizational trust. The strongest relationship is between the trustworthiness of the manager and the trust of the subordinate. However, previous studies lack the dimensions of trust. Therefore, in this study, research on the influence of the trustworthiness of the manager on the trust of the subordinate in the manager includes dimensions of each key concept. The purpose of the study is to determine the influence of the trustworthiness of the manager on the subordinate’s trust in the manager. A theoretical model as a background of the research is presented. It is composed of five dimensions of the trustworthiness of the manager, that is, consistency of manager behaviour, integrity of behaviour, sharing of control, and communication and demonstration of concern, and their influence on the general trust, as well as cognitive and emotional trust of subordinates in the manager.

The results of the regression analysis have revealed that the greatest positive influence on the subordinate’s trust in the manager is the manager’s demonstration of concern, but this influence is greater on emotional trust than on cognitive trust. The integrity of the leader’s behaviour also has a positive effect on general and both cognitive and emotional trust of the subordinate in the leader. Additionally, consistency of behaviour, communication, and sharing of control contribute to the accuracy of predicting trust, but the influence of each of these dimensions of the trustworthiness separately is not significant. The results of the study have also shown that the trust of the subordinate increases with the increase in the ratio of the seniority of the subordinate compared to the seniority of the manager. In addition, emotional trust is higher in smaller organizations, while general trust and cognitive trust increase with subordinate age.

Published: May 2023

The paper analyses the evolution of the vibraphone in the development of musical styles. The vibraphone is recently built instrument in comparison to other percussion instruments. Its original version was built just over 100 years ago – in 1916. Although the evolution of the vibraphone is not a new subject of research in foreign literature, it is usually examined in the context of jazz performers. There are fewer works that discuss the evolution of the vibraphone in the development of various musical styles, and there are none that mention the Baltic countries, specifically Lithuania. During the research, the methods of analysis, synthesis and generalization of scientific literature and repertoires were used.

The analysis of scientific literature showed that since 1921, when the vibraphone was presented at the World Instrument Exhibition in the United States, the performance style of this musical instrument has changed significantly, both in terms of timbre and technique. In the modern world of music, the vibraphone is used not only for melodic lines, but also for accompaniment, counterpoint, rhythm and harmony, damping, sound suppression and complex pedaling. This is a modern school of vibraphone performance. Unfortunately, due to historical and political circumstances in Lithuania, the vibraphone has not become a part of the music culture and is still considered a niche instrument.
Poder judicial y estudios históricos sobre la institucionalidad costarricense: acercamientos y rezagos
Authors: Cascante Segura Carlos Humberto
Published: May 2023

El texto tiene como objetivo realizar un estado de la cuestión acerca de los estudios existentes en el país sobre el desarrollo del Poder Judicial y la administración de Justicia en Costa Rica. Para ello compara las fuentes y los métodos empleados por los diversos autores que han trabajado esta temática. Se concluye que la carencia de estudios sistemáticos y continuos del desarrollo del Poder Judicial son especialmente notables para el siglo XIX, asimismo, que en los trabajos sobre la materia se han preferido aquellos vinculados con la instrumentalización de la administración de justicia para el control social. Sin embargo, se ha dejado de lado el desarrollo institucional, entendido como la evolución normativa, la conformación de cuadros burocráticos y la estructuración de discursos legitimadores de este proceso. De estos elementos, el que ha tenido más investigación son los vinculados con estudios normativos, los que en general adolecen de una contextualización de los fenómenos sociales que explican la existencia de tales normas.
Comparsas de blancos tiznados en el carnaval de Buenos Aires, 1865-1909: Relevamiento y descripción
Authors: Adamovsky Ezequiel
Published: May 2023

Este trabajo presenta un relevamiento crítico y descriptivo de las comparsas de blancos tiznados que participaron del carnaval de Buenos Aires entre 1865 y 1909. Sobre los listados establecidos, se avanza en una descripción de las características y estilos de actuación que incluye género, vestuarios, accesorios, danzas e instrumentos musicales, tipo de sus canciones y contenido de sus letras. Un anexo final lista, junto al nombre de cada comparsa y sus años de existencia, su tamaño y nombres de autoridades o integrantes, allí donde fue posible conocerlos. El trabajo demuestra que hay un cambio en la composición social de este tipo de comparsas y explica los motivos de la abrupta finalización del fenómeno luego de 1894. Las conclusiones discuten la comparabilidad entre el tiznado rioplatense y el blackface anglosajón y ofrecen algunas pistas sobre la relación entre los blancos que lo practicaban y la colectividad afroporteña.

NARRATIVA MATERNAL Y SOCIALIZACIÓN. UN ESTUDIO LONGITUDINAL SOBRE OCHO DÍADAS
Authors: Sanabria León Jorge Rafael
Published: May 2023

El objetivo de este trabajo consiste en identificar guiones culturalmente relevantes en la narrativa materna lúdica que permitan evidenciar posibles  intenciones de las madres y derivar supuestos acerca del efecto de las narrativas maternas en la socialización temprana. Se realizó un microanálisis inductivo de interacciones que codificó las secuencias del juego naturalista de ocho díadas a las seis semanas, seis meses y un año del bebé. La Teoría Fundamentada revela los patrones más frecuentes. Se concluye que las narrativas maternas que se articulan con objetos cotidianos apuntan a significadosculturales para hacerlos accesibles al infante, al apelar a guiones cotidianos y así conformar orientaciones sociales.

Experimental Testing of Wood Framed Walls with Available Materials in Costa Rica
Authors: González Beltrán Guillermo
Published: May 2023

This paper presents a research study about timber shear walls, with materials commercially available in Costa Rica. With new developments in engineered timber, the Costa Rican Seismic Code included a chapter on timber structures, defining diaphragms and shear walls as part of the lateral resisting system.  A research study was then carried out, with the objective of determining the structural behavior of a typical shear wall. Twelve specimens were constructed and tested, varying the nail spacing and anchorage system. The specimens were tested with monotonic and cyclic loading procedures according to ASTM E564 and ASTM E2126 respectively. It was found that the specimens can develop an adequate shear strength and stiffness if the end studs are adequately anchored to the foundation. These results are an important input for the Costa Rican Seismic Code and for the development of engineered timber in Costa Rica.
Best practice when engaging with the many aspects of the written word in history teaching
Authors: Vella Yosanne
Published: May 2023

The purpose of this paper is to present a theoretical examination on the importance of writing in history teaching in schools to age groups 7–16 year old. It presents a discussion and an overview of best and meaningful practice in history teaching when using written historical sources as evidence for analyses in the classroom. It also looks at how educators can support pupils' own writing in history lessons in effective ways. The paper attempts to do this by reporting on various pedagogical research work conducted specifically on writing in history and its many facets when it comes to history learning in schools. The author offers various pedagogical recommendations based on her own as well as others' research work on the written word in history teaching. The paper looks at written sources from four different aspects. It discusses written sources as primary historical sources in themselves and how they can be made more palpable, that is more tangible and easier to use for pupils. It then looks at Secondary written sources, that is, historians' interpretation of history and how these can be presented to pupils, followed by how Primary written sources can also produce opportunity to practice the skill of detecting bias. Lastly pupils' own writing is discussed and how their writing in history can be made better.
