Published: August 2022

Hymenopteran venoms, inoculated during stings by ants, bees, and wasps, are the most frequent cause of an IgE-mediated systemic hypersensitivity reaction in adults, which is a key process in drastic manifestations of anaphylaxis. Respiratory involvement is usually caused by pulmonary edema but is rarely described as including interstitial pneumonitis or acute respiratory distress syndrome. Here, we describe a case of severe allergic reaction after a sting by Apoica pallens with late-onset pulmonary involvement, including signs of vasoplegia (pleural effusion) and interstitial pneumonitis with mild rhabdomyolysis. The presence of late onset of pulmonary involvement after a severe allergic reaction after a sting by A. pallens shows the importance of keeping a patient with severe reactions under medical care for a minimum of 5 days to avoid serious late complications outside the hospital environment.
ВИКОРИСТАННЯ ПЕРСОНАЛЬНИХ ДАНИХ ВІДПОВІДНО ДО МІЖНАРОДНИХ СТАНДАРТІВ ІСАО
Authors: Чулінда Людмила , Бем Наталія
Published: August 2022

Стаття присвячена аналізу особливостей використання персональних даних у цивільній авіації відповідно до стандартів та рекомендованої практики Міжнародної організації цивільної авіації ІСАО, яка приділяє особливу увагу безпеці та спрощенню оформлення документів, що містять персональні дані авіапасажирів, вантажів, а також авіаційній безпеці. Розвиток сучасних технологій сприяє тому, що більшість соціальної та економічної діяльності відбувається в Інтернеті, тому конфіденційність і захист персональних даних стають все більш важливими. Збирання, використання та передача особистої інформації третім сторонам без повідомлення чи згоди споживачів становить серйозну проблему безпеки, тому тема статті є актуальною. Автори зосереджують увагу на дослідженні діяльності держави у сфері використання авіаційного транспорту, що передбачає дотримання вимог, що пов’язані з оформленням проїзних документів, обміном інформацією та ідентифікацією мандрівників із високим ризиком, перевіркою людей і вантажу з метою безпеки, боротьбу з тероризмом та багато інших. Практично всі суб’єкти міжнародної цивільної авіації мають справу з обробкою величезного обсягу персональних даних пасажирів. У статті охарактеризовано положення першого міжнародного документа про права осіб на захист персональних даних: Конвенцію про захист осіб щодо автоматизованої обробки персональних даних, відому як «Конвенція 108», яка є юридично обов’язковим міжнародним документом, містить принципи, які держави мають імплементувати у своє внутрішнє законодавство, щоб гарантувати, що дані збираються та обробляються відповідно до процедур, передбачених законом, з конкретною метою, що вони зберігаються не довше, ніж це потрібно, і що особи мають право на доступ до своїх даних, їх виправлення чи видалення. Виходячи з проведеного аналізу, автори стверджують, що Програма ICAO Facilitation надає Договірним державам засоби максимального підвищення ефективності формальностей проходження кордону, а також досягнення та підтримання високого рівня безпеки та ефективної правоохоронної діяльності, а «Керівні основні принципи для розробки цифрових облікових даних для подорожей ІСАО Digital Travel Credential» мають важливе значення для успіху ініціатив цифрової ідентичності, оскільки цифрова копія інформації в електронному паспорті забезпечує необхідні облікові дані. У результаті проведеного дослідження особливостей використання персональних даних у цивільній авіації відповідно до стандартів та рекомендованої практики Міжнародної організації цивільної авіації автори доходять висновку, що забезпечення надійності та своєчасності впровадження новітніх технологій, а також нових регуляторних актів у сфері захисту персональних даних має наслідком визнання і впровадження загальновизнаних цінностей, закріплених у міжнародних документах цивільної авіації універсального та регіонального значення. Зокрема, таке оновлення і розширення відбувається завдяки імплементації міжнародних та європейських стандартів цивільної авіації у правову систему України.

Published: August 2022

Irak’ın kuzey doğusunda bulunan Kerkük, Irak’ın dördüncü büyük şehridir. Kerkük şehrinin, 7000 yıl eskiye uzanan tarihi vardır. Şehir devletleri çağı (M.Ö. 5500-4000) diye isimlendirilen Sümerler döneminden, sülalelerin doğuş çağı (M.Ö. 2060-1960) diye adlandırılan çağa kadar, Mezopotamya’da bağımsız şehirler var olmuştur. Musul ve Ninova’yı buna örnek olarak verebiliriz. Bunlar gibi Erbeha da (şu andaki Kerkük) Sümerler zamanında, kentleşme açısından, genişliği ve refahı ile öne çıkmış ve bağımsız bir devlet olarak var olmuştur. 1923’te Kerkük kalesinde bulunan çivi yazısı tabletlerine göre de Erbeha (Kerkük) Sümerler zamanında bağımsız bir devlet olarak ortaya çıkmış veya eski bir devletin merkezi olmuştur. Kerkük Sümerler’den sonraki Amurrular, Hurriler, Mitanniler, Medler, Persler, Makedonyalılar, Selefkiler, Sâsânîler Dört Halife Dönemi, Emevîler, Abbasîler, Moğollar, Hamdâniler, Atabekler, Büyük Selçuklular, Irak Selçukluları, Celayirliler, Karakoyunlular, Akkoyunlular, Safevîler ve Osmanlı Devleti hâkimiyetinde bulunmuştur. Pek çok devletlerin hâkimiyetinde bulunan Kerkük, her bakımdan zengin tarih kültürü ile yoğrulmuş bir şehirdir.
Abbasîler’den başlayarak, özellikle Tuğrul Bey’in Bağdat’a girmesi ile başlayan dönemlerden itibaren Kerkük her bakımdan Türk özelliği taşımaya başlamıştır. Türk dilinin konuşulduğu, Türk örf ve adetlerinin yaşandığı şehir, günümüze kadar aynı özellikleri korumaktadır. Çağımızda Irak’ta yaşayan Türkmenlerin yoğun olarak yerleşme dönemleri ise Karakoyunlular zamanına rastlamaktadır.

Authors: Yurt Ayşenur , Tuğluca Murat
Published: August 2022

1864’te yayımlanan vilâyet nizamnamesiyle ülke toprakları vilâyetlere ayrılarak yönetilmeye başlanmıştır. Şüphesiz ki Suriye Vilâyeti gerek devletin dini İslam’ın çıkış noktasına olan yakınlığı, gerekse içerisindeki demiryolu ve telgraf hattıyla ticarî ve sosyal bir geçit olması sebebiyle devletin yakından ilgilendiği vilâyetlerden biriydi. Suriye Vilâyeti’yle ilgili çalışmaların sayısı fazla olmasa da devletin bölgedeki idârî yapılanması, bağlı olduğu ve etkilediği ticarî ağlar ve özellikle de Osmanlı Devleti’nden ayrılışı öncesinde yaşanan siyasî olaylar hakkında çalışmalar mevcuttur. Bölge hakkında konulara dair bilgi edinmek ve Osmanlı Devleti’ne dair ayrıntıları keşfetmek eskiye oranla daha kolay olsa da sosyal açıdan boşlukları doldurabilecek nitelikteki bilgi kaynaklarının işlenmesi gerekmektedir. Bu çalışmada Osmanlı Suriyesi’nin sosyal yaşamının ayrıntıları devletin resmî gazetesindeki haberler kaynak alınarak incelenmiştir. Gazete aracılığıyla farklı dînî görüş ve etnik yapıya sahip tebaanın sosyal etkinlikler vasıtasıyla bir araya geldiği ve birbirlerine hoşgörü gösterdiği anlaşılmaktadır. Devlet ise sosyal yardım ve dayanışma faaliyetleri yürüterek tebaanın sosyal ve dînî yaşamına hizmet etmiştir.

Published: August 2022

The legislative prescriptions promoting and protecting the rights of disabled people in South Africa are some of the most comprehensive globally. These prescriptions are applied across all the spheres of government to eliminate the discrimination faced by persons with disabilities. This study analyzed selected legislation and public policies representing persons with disabilities in the country with reference to the City of Cape Town. The study sought to identify features of the government’s efforts to improve the lives and participation of disabled people and to better implement inclusive legislation and policies. Through a desktop analysis, the study found that legislation and governmental policies that protect and promote the rights of persons with disabilities provide a framework from which disabled people can exercise their economic, political, and social rights as equal members of the citizenry. However, the state of disability in relation to policy and legislation does pose challenges to the effectiveness of these prescriptions to eliminate discrimination and promote equality. The study recommends the strengthening of legislation and policies through strategies that involve the partnerships of government and civil society. There is also a need to review the existing legislative framework to identify and eliminate barriers that limit the equality of disabled people.

Published: August 2022

Purpose: This article explores the challenges experienced by Namibian public schools’ educators when implementing the revised curriculum in Ompundja Circuit and suggests how the challenges can be addressed.

Methodology: A qualitative design using a semi-structured interview guide was employed to collect data from five purposively sampled principals. About 45-minute long face-to-face interviews were conducted with each of the principals. The data collected through interviews were transcribed and read several times to make meaning from the volume data. After reading all the interview transcripts, various codes were assigned to themes using a priori or pre-existing coding. The interpretation was derived from the transcribed responses of participants.

Findings: The study found that there are structural, cultural and agential constrains that could hinder the successful management and implementation of the revised curriculum in Namibian public schools in Ompundja Circuit. These challenges may derail the purpose of instructional leadership, which seeks to improve learners’ academic performance country-wide. The study proposed some enabling mechanisms to address the identified challenges.

Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: This study made a set of recommendations such as: training of educators on curriculum implementation should be conducted regularly; stakeholders should be provided with the necessary instructional materials and teachers are encouraged to use alternative teaching and learning resources. Further, it is recommended that the teacher-learner ratio policy should be morphed to respond to contexts. It is also recommended that schools should mobilise monetary or in-kind assistance from stakeholders, including parents. The current policy that prevents schools from soliciting school development funds from parents and denies teachers the opportunities to use the Universal Primary Education funds for educational excursions should be revised. It is also recommended that schools should be provided with the necessary physical infrastructures. Finally, it is recommended that teachers should be involved in every curriculum development process and decision making thereof.

Authors: B Shravan Basvaraj , Dutta Kusumika Krori
Published: August 2022

Electric Vehicles (EVs) are becoming more and more financially viable as the operating costs of EVs fall dramatically in comparison to Internal Combustion Engine Vehicles (ICEVs). To boost consumer trust in EVs even further, accurate State of Health - SOH measurement is essential. SOH in a battery is determined by a number of parameters, including current, voltage, age, and temperature. Estimating the SOH of a Lithium -ion battery chemistry is of a difficult task. Because lithium-ion batteries are extremely nonlinear, time-variant, and complicated electrochemical systems, this is the case. Two machine learning techniques are used in this article to estimate SOH from Lithium-ion battery cell experimental test data. Experiments are carried out using data from NASA's Prognostic Center of Excellence.

Authors: Santos Filho Serafim , Souza Kleyde
Published: August 2022

O artigo apresenta uma metodologia de formação-intervenção, proposta no campo da educação profissional em saúde, na perspectiva de avançar para além da apropriação de competências específicas e contribuir com a mudança de modelo de organização dos serviços na rede SUS e do cuidado em saúde, como política pública. Parte-se das lacunas dos modelos instituídos de atenção em saúde e de formação profissional, com inovações coerentes com os incentivos institucionais do Ministério da Saúde para a formação para o trabalho em equipe multiprofissional para interferência em territórios de cuidado à saúde das mulheres. Apresenta um caminho metodológico de ‘formação-intervenção-avaliação’, articulando conceitos, dimensões de análise e trazendo efeitos transversais de cursos efetivados à luz desse referencial. A proposta metodológica foi desenvolvida tendo por campo 20 cursos multicêntricos de especialização em enfermagem obstétrica coordenados pela Escola de Enfermagem da UFMG, no período de 2016 a 2018. Participaram 1.150 profissionais, dentre agentes de instituições federais de ensino (IES) envolvidos na condução e trabalhadores-alunos, além aproximadamente 300 serviços (campos de práticas) vinculados às instituições de ensino campos de prática. Conclui-se a apresentação metodológica com os principais rumos de efeitos experiências, afirmando-se a produção e qualificação de redes de enfermeiros para a assistência e interferência no modelo de cuidado ao parto e nascimento.
E a “outra” escola diante a Pandemia, onde está?
Authors: Paula Michele , Ferenc Alvanize
Published: August 2022

Este trabalho trata da exposição de uma experiência, que tem como contexto o ensino remoto e a retomada das atividades presenciais em um município da zona da mata mineira. Temos como objetivos compreender e analisar aspectos do ensino remoto adotado pela secretaria municipal de educação, a retomada das atividades presenciais de ensino nas escolas municipais e as contradições presentes na relação entre as proposições do órgão municipal e as práticas pedagógicas no contexto escolar. Para atender aos objetivos propostos, nos apoiamos nas contribuições de Alvim e Nóvoa (2021) que entendem a transformação da escola e do processo de ensino como uma oportunidade de reconstituição. A observação desse contexto, à luz da literatura, nos permitiu visualizar o desenvolvimento do trabalho remoto por orientações pedagógicas de forma mais precária, não propiciando o mínimo de contato entre os professores e alunos; a adoção das tecnologias da informação e comunicação - TICs, especialmente, redes sociais, adotadas como referência da prática pedagógica comprovando a desarticulação da relação entre professor e aluno; a adesão descontextualizada de recursos que não fizeram diferença para a efetivação da relação educativa e, consequentemente, fortalecendo as pressões sobre os profissionais da escola desencadeadas no retorno presencial. Neste cenário, enfatizamos o estranhamento do retorno ao “lugar de trabalho” e a implementação de normatizações estruturais e práticas que pouco exploraram o desenvolvimento de dimensões afetivas, experienciais e sociais necessárias na retomada das aulas presenciais.
Subjetividade docente: aproximações com o tema
Authors: Diniz Elza , Oliveira Maria Auxiliadora
Published: August 2022

O presente trabalho apresenta alguns olhares sobre a formação de professores, saberes e profissão docente. Em um primeiro momento fazemos uma incursão bibliográfica com o propósito de compreender o processo de formação e construção dos saberes docentes, trazemos para análise, autores como: TARDIF (2002), NÓVOA (1192), GATTI (2014), entre outros, sabendo que não esgotamos aqui todas as contribuições dos autores, nacionais e internacionais, sobre a referida temática. Para um segundo momento, ainda dialogando com os referidos autores e incorporando novos olhares, discutiremos a questão da subjetividade docente e sua influência na construção da carreira de professor. Sabendo que o professor possui sua história de vida, pessoal e profissional, entendemos que a construção da profissionalização docente está interligada aos acontecimentos que permeiam seu processo de formação. O professor é um sujeito histórico-social e, como tal, suas vivências irão compor sua trajetória profissional.
Trabalho e identidade: uma narrativa de uma professora sobre o impacto da sua condição socioeconômica na sua prática docente
Authors: Reis Patrícia
Published: August 2022

Neste artigo analisamos a narrativa de uma professora de inglês do ensino básico, buscando o entendimento de como suas experiências a constituem. Nosso objetivo é discutir a relação entre trabalho docente e condição social, apontando na narrativa da professora fatos da sua trajetória que nos mostram como sua transformação profissional está diretamente atrelada à sua transformação social. Metodologicamente, este estudo foi realizado a partir de conversas com a professora, gravadas em 2021. O resultado da análise das narrativas coletadas vem ao encontro do que os autores que embasam este artigo defendem: as identidades dos professores têm impacto sobre suas práticas educativas (GOODSON, 2010); professores são marcados por identidades instáveis, constantemente inventadas e reinventadas (KUMARAVADIVELU, 2012).

O presente estudo se justifica nas questões oriundas do momento histórico-social de pandemia do coronavírus (covid-19) que resultaram em uma reconfiguração emergencial do tempo-espaço de trabalho e de modificações consideráveis na rotina da sociedade. Tem como objetivo discutir, com base nos dados apresentados por professoras e professores, categorias emergentes para análise do trabalho docente no contexto da pandemia e do ensino remoto, sendo elas, a intensificação, as relações de gênero e a proletarização do trabalho docente. O ambiente do lar se fundiu ao ambiente de trabalho, tornando-se um objeto de difícil separação e superação. Professoras e professores tem vivenciado o ensino remoto e a distância, em meio a realidades diferentes e contraditórias, entre as particularidades e universalidades dessas relações destacamos a categoria gênero, principalmente ao se considerar a necessidade compulsória de integração do ambiente doméstico e profissional para desenvolvimento do trabalho.
Trabalho docente: saúde e subjetividade
Authors: Barbosa Sandra , Heloani José
Published: August 2022

Este estudo trata das subjetividades constituídas no trabalho docente realizado nas escolas públicas do Distrito Federal e dos desdobramentos deste tipo de trabalho na saúde mental dos professores. Têm-se como objetivos: conhecer as formas de expressão do sofrimento e do prazer na atividade docente nas escolas públicas do Distrito Federal e compreender como essas categorias são utilizadas como prática de resistência ao adoecimento. Em que medida o trabalho docente perpassa as mudanças no mundo do trabalho, entre outros elementos objetivos, e se insere na subjetividade dos trabalhadores em educação? Os professores criam novas formas de trabalho como estratégia de resistência e superação ao sofrimento? A perspectiva teórico-metodológica situa-se entre o método materialista histórico-dialético e a psicodinâmica do trabalho, partindo do ponto de vista da pesquisa qualitativa, considerando-se a historicidade, as relações e as percepções dos professores que atendem à Educação Básica em exercício há mais de cinco anos nessas instituições, o que pode lhes conferir a capacidade de fazer a relação entre o seu trabalho cotidiano e as mudanças ocorridas na sociedade e de dar sentido à sua atuação, acompanhando as mudanças no processo educacional derivados de outras demandas.
