The Technique Homotopy Perturbation Method Operated on Laplace Equation
Authors: Samajdar S. , Khandakar M. H. , Purkait A. , Das S. , Sen Banashree
Published: October 2022

In this study, we introduce a technique acknowledged as the Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) for obtaining the particular solution of two-dimensional Laplace’s Equation with conditions like Dirichlet, Neumann and the use of different boundary prerequisites to exhibit this method’s potential and reliability. The steady-state condition, which depends on temperature, converts Laplace’s equation into a greater dimension and deforms the equal into a Partial Diﬀerential Equation (PDE). Here we additionally tried to discover a comparative measurement in terms of literature survey [1] between the results bought by means of the HPM approach and the same result for the identical equation introduced in any other technique eventually referred to as the Variable Separation Method (VSM). The consequences exhibit that HPM has excessive eﬃciency and eﬀectiveness in fixing Laplace’s equation.  Also dealing without delay with the trouble has a wide variety of benefits and furnished the approximate solution which converges very unexpectedly to a correct answer.

Published: October 2022

Pharmaceutical care is a patient centered, outcome-oriented practice, requiring collaboration between the pharmacist, other care givers and the patient. In Nigeria, pharmacy practice is still majorly product based. Implementation of pharmaceutical care in hospitals in Nigeria since its introduction several years ago has remained erratic. This study evaluated practice of pharmaceutical care among hospital pharmacists in Delta State. This was a prospective study using a structured, pretested and self-administered questionnaire to 55 hospital and administrative pharmacists that gathered in Asaba in July 2018 for the quarterly meeting of their Association. The four-part Questionnaire evaluated demographics of respondents, pharmaceutical care practices carried out, reasons for not implementing pharmaceutical care and suggestions on how pharmaceutical care can be implemented in their various hospitals. Data obtained were analyzed using SPSS Version 22. Descriptive and chi square statistics were obtained.  A P value of less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. 55 questionnaires were distributed, 50 were returned, giving a response rate of 90.9%. Majority (40.0%) were aged 20-29 years; there were more males (52.0%) than females. Majority (56.0%) were married, about one quarter (24.0%) were in practice for 1-5 years. More than half (58.0%) were sole holders of Bachelor of Pharmacy degree. Majority (66.0%) were practicing at the Federal Medical Centre, Asaba. Pharmaceutical care practices carried out included monitoring patient response to therapy (58.0%), identification of errors in patient prescriptions (88.0%), interventions to correct detected errors (86.0%), documentation of pharmaceutical care activities (72.0%), medication review with physicians (54.0%), participation in pharmacists ward rounds (16.0%). However, only 4.0% of respondents counselled patients during interventions to rectify drug therapy problems. Among factors responsible for non-implementation of pharmaceutical care were lack of collaboration (20.0%) lack of space (6.0%), non-acceptance by physicians and nurses and lack of personnel were 10.0% each. Association between location of practice and monitoring improvement in patient response was statistically significant (c2 =23.112, P = 0.003). Practice of pharmaceutical care among pharmacists that converged for the quarterly meeting was average.  There is need for pharmacists to improve in the area of monitoring patient’s response to pharmacotherapy as well as sharpen their counselling skills so that they can render effective drug information services to patients and other healthcare providers.

Published: October 2022

The world has improved a lot. The vision to make people’s lives enjoyable came faithfully through the efforts of scientists in developing technologies that will help people’s work easier. This study determined the effectiveness of Activity-Based Strategy in teaching science to Grade 7 high school students in a national high school in the Philippines. The method used in this study was a quasi-experimental design with control and experimental groups. The experimental group was taught using an activity-based strategy, while the control group used the teacher-centered approach. Pretest and posttest methods were used to measure the level of academic performance of the students in both groups. This study revealed that the pretest performances of the control and experimental group were low, but the posttest of both groups increased. Also, there is a significant difference in the posttest performances of both groups in Earth Science. The study concluded that science teaching for Grade 7 students could be enhanced by using the activity-based strategy, a better alternative to improve students’ performances. Activity-based strategy in Science 7 increases the students’ motivation in terms of mastery of the concepts skills, stimulating positive learning and interest, and love for science.

Authors: Micabalo Kingie G.
Published: October 2022

The academe is regarded as the primary actor capable of empowering people, with the potential to contribute to a better community. School institutions have a mission to connect with the community by providing skill training and information to individuals who are less fortunate in order to help them reach their full potential.The investigation expects to survey the community's status in economic maintainability, social practicality, and ecological quality with an end perspective on building up a sustainable livelihood program centered to advance development and improvement in the community. The 359 residents - respondents of a village in an urban poor area participated in the study using Slovin’s formula to decide the study's sample size on a cluster sampling method in data gathering. Frequency and simple percentage, weighted mean, and Chi-Square Test of Independence were used to treat and interpret the data.The data found that individuals in the area rated social viability highly, while economic sustainability and environmental soundness were rated moderately. The respondents' favored program is the Community Livelihood Program Training Center, whereas the development of People's Cooperative for Businesses, the launch of Community Microfinancing, and Community SME's were rated fairly. The study also discovered a link between the respondents' gender, civil status, educational attainment, monthly income, source of income, and the community's economic, social, and environmental sustainability. Furthermore, the community's economic sustainability, social viability, environmental quality, and selected sustainable livelihood program all have a major relationship. The study concluded that the residents of the village place a high value on the social, economic, and environmental aspects of community growth and development. It also concludes that the community requires a Sustainable Livelihood Training Center, which the people believe is extremely suitable and acceptable for leveraging the community's current situation. People's perceptions of the community's status are influenced by their personal status as a local resident. And, if people's personal status and manner of life improve, a bigger percentage of growth and development in the community will be realized as well.

Published: October 2022

SARS-CoV-2 or COVID-19, has emerged as the most serious public health threat of the contemporary age. More than 4.2 million individuals died as a result of this infectious virus, which has infected about 200 million people. Coronavirus spread quickly across the world due to its infectious nature, resulting in a large number of deaths. In many ways, COVID-19 had an impact on nearly every nation in economic, social, cultural, political, and other spheres. The study aims to find out the portrayal of Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) in popular English newspapers in Bangladesh. Data were collected from the 12 most-read English dailies that published news on IPV all over the country. The study used a summative approach of the qualitative content analysis method as formulated by Bengtsson (2016). Findings show that the frequency of published news on IPV considerably increased amid COVID-19 induced lockdown in Bangladesh. The causes of such incidents go back to deep-rooted patriarchal norms, gender roles and the powerlessness of women. Many incidents occurred during lockdown that, as victims reported, were triggered by shocks like sudden joblessness, chronic stress, abject poverty, etc. caused by the pandemic. Such violence often affected women’s physical, mental and reproductive health. Many incidents like stabbing to death, killing with the home weapon, and physical abuse became national headings amid lockdown. The study suggests undertaking special protection measures for women in any such future event. Awareness and cooperation of people along with appropriate policies can be major steps towards combating the impacts of COVID-19.

Authors: AKGÜL GÜNDOĞDU Nurcan , GÜNDÜZ Emine Selda , DEMİR Canan , TURAN Ogün Onat
Published: October 2022

Objective: Innovation is of great importance in improving the quality of care. Nurses must apply creative techniques and improve existing procedures to create greater care opportunities. Additionally, nurses that have unique ideas should be encouraged to pursue them, and those that are successful should be recognized and rewarded. Because revealing the innovative role of nurses in health care is of great importance in terms of improving both public health and professional knowledge. In line with these importance and suggestions, it was aimed to evaluate the individual innovativeness levels of nurses in this study.

Method: The cross-sectional study was conducted with 427 nurses working at the Health Practice and Research Center of a university, who continued to work between the application dates (April-May 2019) and agreed to participate in the research. Ethics Committee (Decision No: 2019-04/52), institutional permission and written and verbal consent from the nurses were obtained for the research. The data of the research were collected by using the "Personal Information Form" and the "Individual Innovation Scale". The data obtained from the study were evaluated by applying the relevant statistical tests in the SPSS 22.00 program.

Results: In this study, the mean score of the individual innovative scale was found to be 65.19 (8.16). When the individual innovative levels of nurses were evaluated according to this average, it was determined that 34.9% were skeptical, 34.4% questioning, 17.3% traditional, 12.2% pioneering and 1.2% innovative. It was determined that the nurses' being 41 and over, working in the profession for more than 21 years, being a member of a professional association and living in the city center affected their individual innovativeness scores statistically.

Conclusion: The results of the research revealed that being a high school and associate degree graduate, working as a clinical nurse and not needing to follow professional knowledge are risk factors for individual innovativeness. According to these results, it is seen that the innovativeness level of nurses is low. The results of the research revealed the need to increase the individual innovativeness level of nurses.
Discourse Analysis of Chinese Hoof-shaped Gold Ingots
Authors: Zheng Honglian
Published: October 2022

Chinese hoof-shaped gold ingots are cultural relics excavated from Haihunhou tomb of the Western Han Dynasty in recent years. From the perspective of social cognitive linguistics, this article aims at exploring the discourse essence and discursive construction of hoof-shaped gold ingots. Firstly on the level of discursive types, it is proposed that the ingots fall into the category of multi-modal discourses, and to be more specific, the cognitive category of materialized discourses. Then based on the social cognitive model of strong differentiation advanced by Wang (2019), it is found that the ingots are essentially a kind of materialized power discourses developed on the social cognitive model called strong differentiation model of power. Furthermore, it is discovered that the cognitive premise of the social cognitive model is that bestowals are power, which serves as an immediate motivation for the emergence of the ingots in Chinese history. The findings suggest that the cognitive motivation for discursive construction of hoof-shaped gold ingots is the rationalization of power stratification and the natural legitimation of imperial authority in Chinese feudal society.

Authors: Fonteles Helano Regis da Nobrega
Published: October 2022

A região do Baixo Jaguaribe, porção leste do Estado do Ceará, destaca-se por ser um território de expressiva atividade econômica devido à indústria ceramista lá existente. Destacam-se como matérias-primas, os sedimentos argilosos e argilo-arenosos encontrados na planície de inundação do rio Jaguaribe. Com o objetivo de caracterizar tais materiais do ponto de vista geoquímico e possíveis implicações tecnológicas, buscou-se investigar as correlações entre os teores de SiO2, Fe2O3, Al2O3, TiO2, MnO, K2O e CaO (estes dois últimos considerados elementos fundentes essenciais), com uso de técnicas de Análise por Regressão Linear Múltipla (ARM) e de Análise por Componentes Principais (ACP). As principais correlações observadas foram: Al2O3 x K2O, Fe2O3 x SiO2 e Al2O3 x SiO2. Na ACP, as duas primeiras componentes principais respondem por 67,68% da variância explicada da matriz de dados. A CP1 é definida basicamente pelas cargas fatoriais de Fe2O3, SiO2 e Al2O3, enquanto a CP2, correlaciona-se com os teores de K2O e TiO2. Com a ARM, foi possível estabelecer um modelo geral de regressão linear em que os teores de CaO e K2O foram considerados imprevisíveis, podendo representar variações químicas nas matérias-primas e implicar a qualidade das peças cerâmicas.
Tinjauan tematik terhadap skop kajian al-Tafsīr al-Maqāṣidī
Authors: Rozani Muhammad Aizat Syimir , Abdullah Mohd Farid Ravi , Azizan Nurzatil Ismah , Hasan Yaakob
Published: October 2022

Al-Tafsīr al-Maqāṣidī is a topic of research within the field of Quranic exegesis. The researchers of Quranic exegesis are actively discussing this field of knowledge. It is considered a means of ensuring that Islamic scholars remain steadfast in their interpretation of the verses of the Quran based on Maqāṣid al-Shāriʿ (Purpose of order from Allah) rather than on their own lusts or desires. Despite the vibrancy of research on Al-Tafsīr al-Maqāṣidī, the theory's construction requires ongoing research, and there is currently no thematic review of the scope of studies conducted on this subject. Therefore, the purpose of this thematic review is to synthesise the literature on the research scope of al-Tafsīr al-Maqāṣidī using ATLAS.ti 8. This study employs two research methodologies: i) Quantitative methodology, which involves numerical data; and ii) Qualitative methodology, which relies on the thematic analysis related to the study’s scope, al-Tafsīr al-Maqāṣidī. A keyword search followed by an inclusion criteria filter from Google Scholar, Research Gate, and Mendeley databases successfully identified 92 literary works. However, after the inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied, only 68 papers were selected for review. The thematic review conducted in this study identified 86 initial codes characterising the research scope of al-Tafsīr al-Maqāṣidī, which were then classified into 12 clusters. These clusters can be classified into two categories: concept clusters and application clusters. The study’s findings discovered that while the effort to construct the theory of al-Tafsīr al-Maqāṣidī has long been undertaken, it has not been considered mature. In terms of application, the application of al-Tafsīr al-Maqāṣidī to contemporary issues is the most popular scope of the study. The findings of this study may benefit future research by addressing research gaps that have not been addressed in order to complete this branch of Quranic exegesis.

Authors: Ismail Mohd Sufian , Sarudin Anida , Che Mat Azman
Published: October 2022

The development of studies in Malay and Arabic has prompted researchers to construct an interpretation of the discourse particle ‘lah’ based on the Arabic linguistic perspective. This research adapted methods used by Sidnell in detailing aspects of interpretation choice with regard to discourse type, informants, and data transcription procedures. Recordings of the discourse on Wacana Sinar with the title “Plan for National Young Leaders/Pelan Pemimpin Muda Untuk Negara” is used. The interview involved a moderator and three-panel members from the government and from the opposition parties. In the process of developing interpretation for the discourse particles ‘lah’, knowledge of Arabic Balāghah is adapted to its use in Malay. Based on this knowledge, specifically on knowledge of al-ma’ānī, analysis to build the discourse interpretation of the particle ‘lah’ is focused on the form of spoken speech (khabarī), aspects of the structure of speech (isnād) and aspects of language style (uslūb). The result of this study indicated two interpretations of the discourse particles ‘lah’. One is indicative of the speech structure used (isnād). Apart from that, twelve other interpretations of discourse particles ‘lah’ are based on aspects of language style (uslūb). This cross-language study is expected to increase the knowledge of the elements of Arabic which in turn enables it to re-dignify the Malay language.
Pendekatan tafsir Tuan Guru Abdul Hadi Awang dalam berinteraksi dengan riwayat Isrā’iliyyāt
Authors: Abdul Azib Muhammad Khairi , Hussin Haziyah
Published: October 2022

Interpretation scholars used Isrā’īliyyāt’s narration while interpreting qaṣaṣ al-Qur’ān by using different approaches such as narrating part of the Isrā’īliyyāt’s narration, focusing the narration in a specific category or by not giving any commentary on its status. This narration could divert the reader’s focus from the teaching contained in the qaṣaṣ al-Qur’ān to a worthless debate. Therefore, this research analyses Abdul Hadi Awang’s interpretation method in interacting with Isrā’īliyyāt’s narration. This research uses a qualitative design by content analysis. The collection of the research’s data was through document analysis on an audio recording of a few quranic chapters interpreted by Abdul Hadi. NVivo software was applied to analyse the data descriptively. The finding of the research shows that the Isrā’īliyyāt narration presented by Abdul Hadi was divided into two categories, namely narration that comes with commentary and narration without commentary. Besides, it was noted that the Isrā’īliyyāt narration found in Abdul Hadi’s interpretation was not his own source of interpretation, in fact, it was presented to attract the audience’s attention in his lecture.
Probabilities of cooperative moves in all 67 symmetric ordinal two-player two-moves games
Authors: Villiger Daniel , Ullrich Johannes , Krueger Joachim
Published: October 2022

The symmetric 2x2 one-shot game is one of the simplest and most commonly used representations of strategic conflict. Among others, it includes the prisoner’s dilemma, the game of chicken, the volunteer’s dilemma, and the assurance game. All of these games share three characteristics: (1) both players have to make a single choice between two options; (2) they decide simultaneously; and (3) the payoff structure is symmetric. Typically, social scientists who examine (symmetric) 2x2 one-shot games either focus on one game or compare a small number of such games. There are comparatively few studies which analyzed (symmetric) 2x2 one-shot games in a more comprehensive manner. The goal of the present paper is to initiate research on the strategies people use to play any or all symmetric ordinal two-player two-moves games. We propose comparisons between eight different strategies. As will be shown, this analysis lays the groundwork for many possible follow-up projects.

Published: October 2022

This study aims to examine the effect of implementing Green Accounting as measured by Environmental Performance and Environmental Disclosure on Profitability. The t test was used as the method of analysis. The research sample is additional companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2017-2020. The results showed that environmental performance had no effect on profitability, while environmental disclosure had an effect on the profitability of mining companies. The demands on environmental performance made by the company are more directed at companies with large sizes, not to companies with high profitability. Furthermore, environmental disclosure is a means to meet the expectations and needs of stakeholders who want to learn more about the company's environmental performance through annual reports. If the ROA value is not in prime condition, it will have an impact on the company's environmental disclosure.

Published: October 2022

The existing Sharia investment products are incorrect; the other is a state sukuk product. Aside from receiving returns on state sukuk, investors can also contribute to the country's development. Because the development of sukuk products is channeled to the actual sector, particularly for MSME (Micro, Small Maedium Enterprise) actors, Islamic financial institutions must play a role in carrying out the process of developing and aiding MSMEs. If many state sukuk products were previously allocated for infrastructure development, there needs to be an allocation for economic recovery through MSMEs under the current situations. The goal of this research is to assess the growth of state sukuk and the form of sukuk product development through state CWLS for the development of MSMEs. This is a qualitative study that examines the state sukuk market and the MSME sector. Secondary data was used, including information from the Ministry of Finance's Directorate General of Financing and Risk Management (DJPPR). The data analysis technique employed is descriptive qualitative, which depicts the evolution of state sukuk from 2019 to 2020, as well as forms of innovation for state sukuk goods designed specifically for MSMEs recovering from the covid-19 outbreak. PBS Auction Sukuk, PBS Private Placement Sukuk, SNI, SPN-S, Rite Sukuk (SR), and Savings Sukuk (ST) grew by 40.80% from 2019 to 2020, according to the findings of this study. Sukuk auctions at PBS increased by 39.59 percent, PBS Private Placement Sukuk increased by 214.39 percent, SR increased by 72.93 percent, and SNI Sukuk increased by 26.86 percent. In the meantime, SNI Sukuk fell by -30.01 percent, and ST fell by -35.76 percent.

This paper presents the English as A Second Language (ESL) learners’ motivation for using Google Docs to write collaboratively. The study includes learners’ motivations for using Google Docs in writing regarding interaction with classmates and a lecturer. It employed a descriptive research design in collecting the data for the current study.  Eighty (80) diploma students were included in the study to identify their experiences of using the platform in two critical variables – collaboration and motivation. Findings show that Google Docs is beneficial to creating a supportive and motivating learning environment for them, along with collaboration and interaction with their peers and the lecturer. This study has demonstrated that integrating Google Docs in writing can encourage learners’ motivation and, therefore, is significant to the social and psychological well-being to promote a practical approach to writing collaboratively among L2 learners. This is due to growing up in the digital age that requires learners to be prepared to use various digital tools, including Google Docs. Last but not least, the study suggests that different methodologies can be employed to investigate further learners’ motivation as they collaborate with their peers and teacher in writing using Google Docs.

This study evaluates the air quality impact of open burning of solid waste activities in Ilorin, Nigeria. An emission inventory was carried out to quantify the emitted CO, NOx and SOx from 2016- 2020 into the study area. Their ground level concentrations were computed with the Industrial Source Complex – American Meteorological Society (AMS) and United State Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Regulatory Model (AERMOD) dispersion model and compared with standards to determine their impacts on ambient air quality. The average hourly, daily and annual concentrations were 25,267 µg/m3, 4,609 µg/m3, 447 µg/m3 for carbon monoxide (CO); 4,700 µg/m3, 730 µg/m3, 130 µg/m3 for oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and 954 µg/m3, 144 µg/m3, 24 µg/m3 for oxides of sulphur (SOx) respectively. The hourly air quality for CO were within the World Bank standard for all the receptor communities except at Abe-Emi with 2.17 folds, while the daily air quality was within the Federal Ministry of Environment (FMEnV) limit. However, the 1-h, 24-h and annual air quality for NOx exceeded the FMEnV and World Bank standard for all the receptor communities. Similarly, the hourly and daily air quality for SOx exceeded the FMEnV and World Bank standard for all the receptor communities.

This study was conducted to find out the remarkable difference between the pretest and post-test results of the writing skills of Grade 9 learners and the pre-experimental research design specifically the pretest-posttest design was utilized. With the analysis and interpretation of data, this pre-experimental study used statistical tools such as Mean, Standard Deviation, and T-Test. Hypotheses were tested, and the findings revealed the following information; there is no significant difference between the pretest and post-test results of the writing skills of Grade 9 learners. This research proved that sustained silent reading directly affects the writing skills of Grade 9 learners. This method can be applied and helpful to both parents and teachers. Having all those findings, this study recommends that since sustained silent reading is a remarkable method of teaching so educators should be accommodated in training on how to develop and carry out the program in a classroom environment, teachers may be sensitive enough to observe the urgent need of learners, thereby, being resourceful and patient, parents may be so inclined in pursuing their children’s education and help them achieve their goals. They may possess a positive attitude toward reading and encourage their children to study hard, specifically struggling learners. Learners may be responsible enough to enhance their performance by developing a habit of reading to improve their writing skills, and future researchers may conduct a similar study to see the benefits of sustained silent reading and thus improve the learners’ writing skills. Keywords: sustained silent reading, writing skills, English language learners, pleasurable, cognitively undemanding, informative.

Authors: Wang Quansen
Published: October 2022

The integration of the digital twin with the water industry is a new generation of information technology and communication technology in the integrated application of the water industry, is an important implementation path to promote the new stage of high-quality water development. The current level of wisdom in the water conservancy industry is still low, and there is relatively little research and application for the digital twin. For this reason, the basic connotation and development concept of the digital twin is discussed in depth, and research is conducted focusing on the problems that may be faced in the construction process of the digital twin in the flood storage space. The study gives a general scheme of flood storage space construction with data base construction, digital scene construction, intelligent simulation and accurate decision support construction as the main axes. The related results can provide constructive planning ideas for future smart river basin construction.

An experiment was conducted at the Agronomy Field Laboratory of Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh during the period from July to December 2018 to evaluate the effect of different levels of nitrogen on growth and yield of drought tolerant transplant aman rice cultivars. The ex- periment was consisted of one check variety BRRI dhan49 and three drought tolerant rice varieties BRRI dhan56, BRRI dhan66 and BRRI dhan71 along with five nitrogen levels such as no nitrogen (control treatment), 50%, 100%, 125% and 150% of recommended dose (RD) where the recommended dose was 150 kg N ha−1. Nitrogen was applied in the form of urea (46.66% N) as top dressing in three equal splits at 15 days after transplanting, 30 DAT and 45 DAT. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The result of the study reveals that BRRI dhan66 produced the highest number of total tillers hill−1, effective tillers hill−1 and grains panicle−1. The highest 1000-grain weight and grain yield was recorded in BRRI dhan71 which was statistically identical to BRRI dhan66. In case of level of nitrogen, the highest number of total tillers hill−1 was observed in 125% RD of N. The highest number of effective tillers hill−1 was found in 100% of RD of N and the maximum number of grains panicle−1 was observed in 150% of RD of N. The highest grain yield was obtained from 125% RD of N which was statistically identical to 100% and 150% of RD of N. In case of interaction the highest number of total tillers hill−1 was recorded in BRRI dhan56 with 125% RD of N which was statistically identical to BRRI dhan66 with 100% RD of N. The highest number of grains panicle−1 was observed in BRRI dhan66 with 150% of RD of N. BRRI dhan56 with 150% RD of N produced the highest 1000-grain weight. The highest number of effective tillers hill−1, grain yield and straw yield were recorded in BRRI dhan66 with 100% RD of N. In conclusion, the result of the study revealed that application of 100% recommended dose of N (150 kg ha−1) is suggested as the best nitrogen management approach for the drought tolerant rice cultivar BRRI dhan66 for its better performance.

Hoy en día, las consecuencias de una inoportuna gestión de la basura en el mundo acarrean diversos inconvenientes ambientales que afectan al ser humano, animales y al planeta en general, así como también al progreso socio-económico de la población mundial. Rescatando dichas sapiencias se desarrolla la presente revisión bibliográfica sobre los trabajos de investigación más recientes sobre educación ambiental para coadyuvar a la gestión integral de residuos sólidos, con el objetivo de obtener información pertinente relacionada con la sensibilización ambiental para contrarrestar la contaminación ambiental por residuos sólidos, para lo cual se hizo un análisis hermenéutico de las referencias disponibles en las bases de datos, SciELO, Redalyc, Science Direct y otros, utilizando como descriptores los términos conciencia ambiental, contaminación ambiental y residuos sólidos, haciendo hincapié en objetivos, categorías, principios, propuestas y políticas de la educación ambiental. Encontrando que, tras muchos años de uso indiscriminado de plaguicidas, se han producido daños al ambiente, sobre todo al sector agropecuario de las zonas contaminadas, y en el tratamiento del agua se está utilizando técnicas con insumos químicos con efectos secundarios como la aparición de múltiples agentes oxidantes responsables de la mineralización de los contaminantes existentes en los herbicidas. Se concluyó que la sensibilización, el conocimiento y el comportamiento humano afectan directamente el manejo de residuos sólidos.
