The Bilingualism Experiences Of Scholars Sent Abroad For Education (1416 Scholars) (1923-1950)
Authors: Kaya Mehtap
Published: September 2024

The Tradition of Sending Students Abroad on Scholarships for Higher Education began during the reign of Sultan Selim III. As one of the most significant educational initiatives of Ottoman modernization, this tradition continued uninterrupted after the establishment of the Republic. In 1929, the “Law No. 1416 on Students to Be Sent to Foreign Countries” was enacted, and this practice, inherited from the Ottoman Empire, has strengthened the country’s social infrastructure by providing it with highly qualified and intellectual human capital. Since its inception in 1929, the law aimed to ensure that students sent abroad on scholarships gain academic expertise in their respective fields while developing a universal perspective through exposure to different cultures. Over the years, this objective achieved such tangible success that the scholars became known by the label “1416’lılar” (1416 Scholars), symbolizing the spark that returned to the country as a flame of intellectual contribution. This goal also facilitated the scholars in becoming bilingual or multilingual individuals, with bilingualism proving to be a key factor in the program’s overall success. Most scholars, who went abroad for higher education without prior knowledge of a foreign language, faced the already challenging process of higher education in the language of the host country, ultimately achieving significant success. Many renowned figures in their respective fields, from Cahit Arf to Sabahattin Eyüboğlu, Afet İnan to Remziye Hisar, began their bilingual journeys during these educational experiences and effectively used their bilingualism in their professional achievements. The ability to use two languages equally well played a crucial role in not only blending the culture of the host country with the education they received but also in promoting their own culture abroad. In this study, we aim to explore the bilingual experiences of 25 scholars who went abroad for education—often without knowledge of the host country's language—and later made significant contributions both in Turkey and internationally by becoming experts in their fields. We will concretize these experiences through the accomplishments of prominent figures.

Authors: Gadhi Abdullah , Tiwari Alok , Qurnfulah Emad
Published: September 2024

This study investigates the extent and evolution of urban green areas in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, emphasizing their role in environmental sustainability and weather conditions. Urban green spaces (UGS) in Jeddah have experienced significant changes due to rapid urbanization, which has diminished their availability and accessibility. Historically, the city’s growth led to the conversion of natural landscapes into built environments, exacerbating the decline in UGS. Recent urban planning policies, including the "Green Saudi Initiative," aim to address these challenges by integrating green infrastructure into urban development. Despite these efforts, the uneven distribution of UGS, influenced by socio-economic factors, remains a critical issue, limiting equitable access and utility. Furthermore, Jeddah’s hot desert climate and urban heat island (UHI) effect compound environmental challenges, affecting urban temperatures, energy consumption, and precipitation patterns. This research aims to review existing literature to understand the impact of UGS on environmental sustainability and explore the barriers and opportunities associated with their development. By examining these aspects, the study seeks to inform future urban planning and policy-making, fostering the creation of resilient and sustainable urban spaces in Jeddah.

Published: September 2024

The study was conducted to explore teacher effectiveness in the development of skills in early childhood education (ECE). The aim of this research work was to know to what extent the teacher is effective in the development of skills in early childhood students. Thus, the performance of learners was evaluated based on the impact of ECE resource rooms on the skills development of learners from the teacher's perception. A total of 170 teachers were chosen from elementary and secondary schools as a sample of this study. The effectiveness of the teachers in early childhood education (ECE) was evaluated using a self-created questionnaire. Data entry and subsequent statistical analysis were conducted using the Social Sciences Statistical Package (SPSS 21). The results revealed that male and female teacher perceptions about utilizing ECE resource rooms were different among student skills and competency development. It was concluded that a healthy learning environment is considered to be supportive in augmenting the development of the brain, as well as social and physical. The resource rooms should be established to boost prospective teachers' imagination and enable them to create stories. Teachers should be encouraged to raise discussions among students to gain their attention and support the learning process.

Published: September 2024

To investigate the relationship between physical activity and depression in the context of (T2D) and to analyze this influence for managing and preventing depression in individuals with this condition. Cross-sectional survey with a total of 200 T2D and 50 controls aged between 40 to 60 years agreed to participate and were interviewed and all variables were measured concurrently. A subsample of 61 depressive patients was studied. Depressive symptoms was evaluated by the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II ≥ 12). Physical activity was evaluated by the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQL) by the Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36), comorbidity severity by the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), Excessive Sleepiness Sleepiness was evaluted by Excessive Sleepiness Scale (ESS). The prevalence of Restless Leg Syndrome was analyzed using Restless Leg Syndrome rating scale (RLSRS). Sleep quality was assessed by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The questionnaires were done in a face-to-face interview by two health professional’s staff. The presence of depressive symptoms influenced quality of life, antrometric measures and peripheral neuropathy. A subsample of 61 (30%) depressive TD2 and 139 patients without depressive symptoms were studied. Waist circumference (WC) and waist-hip ratio (WHR) were higher in patients with depression compared to T2D without depression (WC: p= 0.04 and p=0.03). Interestingly, in T2D depressive individuals, all subscales of SF-36 presented more impairment compared to T2D without depression (p<0.01) and to control group (p=0.000). According to physical activity in depressive T2D, sedentary patients had increased neck circumference (p=0.008), WC (p=0.005) and WHR (p=0.02). Similarly, peripheral neuropathy and hypertension were more frequently in sedentary T2D patients (p=0.01 and p=0.03).
ELECTRONIC MONITORING CONTROLS AS AN ALTERNATIVE PUNISHMENT IN COMPARATIVE LEGISLATION
Authors: Al-Atrash Esam Hosni
Published: September 2024

Objective: This study aimed to identify the controls of electronic monitoring as one of the alternative penalties in comparative legislation, identify the cases of using electronic monitoring, clarify the principles on which electronic monitoring is based, in addition to identifying the persons subject to electronic monitoring, and clarifying the conditions for applying electronic monitoring. The study also aimed to identify the obligations of the person subject to electronic monitoring.
 
Methods: The researcher used the descriptive analytical approach in his study, by analyzing all laws and legislation related to electronic monitoring. The researcher also used the comparative approach.
 
Results and discussion: The study reached a set of results, the most prominent of which is that adults can be subject to electronic monitoring, as can juveniles provided that their guardian approves of that, and men, women, detainees and convicts can be subject to electronic monitoring, as can crime victims for their protection, and the penalty must be deprivation of liberty, as it cannot be applied to a fine, and legislation differed in the duration of the penalty of deprivation of liberty imposed in order for electronic monitoring to be applied, as for the accused or detainees, the charge must be of the type of misdemeanor or felony and it is not conceivable that it be of the type of violations, and legislation differed regarding the authorities that have the authority to issue an electronic monitoring order, some of which limited it to the judiciary or the director of the correctional institution or the judge implementing the penalty, and legislation also specified a set of obligations on the person concerned.
 
Implications: This study will help specialists, especially Palestinian legislative policy makers, in building a vision for implementing electronic monitoring as an alternative punishment.
 
Originality: This study is considered one of the first studies that addressed the subject of electronic monitoring controls as an alternative punishment in comparative legislation at the level of Palestinian legislation.
 
Recommendations: The study recommended a set of recommendations, perhaps the most prominent of which is not to leave a specific area that is specified for a specific period of time, in addition to some other duties. In the event that the convict violates the electronic monitoring controls, this leads to the withdrawal of the decision to implement electronic monitoring, and it can be replaced with other alternative punishments according to the discretion of the judiciary. The study recommended that the Palestinian legislator enact an alternative punishment law, including electronic monitoring, after benefiting from comparative legislation and according to the available capabilities.
The Crime of Body Shaming in Indonesia from the Perspective of Islamic Criminal Law
Authors: Hakim Fatimah Khairul , Suparmin Sudirman
Published: September 2024

This study aims to examine the crime of body shaming in Indonesia from the perspective of Islamic criminal law. This study uses a normative legal research method with a comparative approach. The collected legal material is then qualitatively analyzed to describe the problem and answer the study objectives. The results show that body shaming, both verbal and non-verbal, is a reprehensible act that contradicts human values and is strictly prohibited in Islam, as emphasized in Q.S. Al-Hujurat verse 11 which prohibits acts of ridicule, reproach, and calling others by bad nicknames, and emphasizes the importance of guarding one’s tongue and using excellent and constructive words. In the legal context, body shaming falls into the category of jarimah ta’zir in Islamic criminal law and can be prosecuted under articles related to insult and defamation in positive law in Indonesia. This study recommends various preventive efforts, such as comprehensive public campaigns and education programs about the dangers of body shaming and the importance of respecting physical diversity, including integrating these values into the education curriculum and strict law enforcement. Collaboration between the government, judges, religious leaders, educators, and the community is expected to create a more inclusive environment that values everyone regardless of physical appearance.
Check List de Charophytas, Chlorophytas y Euglenophytas del arroyo Piribebuy, Departamento de Cordillera – Paraguay

Published: September 2024

Los trabajos recientes sobre algas en Paraguay se enfocan en registros de indicadores biológicos para monitorear la calidad del agua en diversos ecosistemas continentales. Aunque se compilaron listas a través de algunos trabajos taxonómicos, hay limitaciones de acceso y vacíos de información en la caracterización de sistemas acuáticos. La falta de estudios detallados en el arroyo Piribebuy, vital para el sur del Departamento de Cordillera, destaca la necesidad de investigaciones exhaustivas dada la ausencia de caracterizaciones y el impacto antrópico. La necesidad de ampliar y enriquecer los registros de especies en Paraguay, subraya la importancia de llevar a cabo estudios taxonómicos y ecológicos. Este enfoque no sólo propicia la exploración de nuevas áreas de investigación, sino que también ha desempeñado un papel crucial en el impulso de este estudio. En un monitoreo llevado a cabo en el arroyo Piribebuy, se realizaron tres campañas de relevamiento fitoplanctónico (agosto, septiembre y octubre del 2022), utilizando muestras cualitativas, filtradas de 50 L, obtenidas mediante redes de plancton de 50 μm de diámetro de malla y conservadas con FAA. Los estudios cualitativos incluyen fotomicrografías de las especies más representativas. De las tres campañas evaluadas, se priorizaron los registros de Charophyta, Chlorophyta y Euglenophyta, debido a que fueron los más diversos. Se lograron registrar 83 especies de algas en los tres grupos. Se observó una mayor proporción de taxones en el grupo de las Charophytas, destacando especies de los géneros Closterium y Cosmarium. Adicionalmente, se contribuyen 51 nuevos registros para Paraguay

Published: September 2024

En el Paraguay, una variedad de la especie Cannabis sativa L., denominado comúnmente “cáñamo”, con un contenido de tetrahidrocannabinol (THC) inferior al 0,5% (p/p) se encuentra regulado mediante el decreto N°2725 desde el año 2019, a consecuencia del creciente interés por el alto valor nutricional del aceite de las semillas de esta variedad, ha aumentado la venta de productos a base de cáñamo en el mercado, surgiendo así la necesidad de realizar un control de calidad en cuanto al contenido de cannabinoides en estos productos. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo principal identificar la presencia de cannabinoides en productos comerciales mediante cromatografía líquida de alta resolución. Se llevó a cabo el análisis de 9 productos a base de aceite de semilla de cáñamo, que incluyeron cosméticos y té. Los resultados arrojaron que en ninguna de las muestras se observaron picos con tiempos de retenciones similares al del estándar de THC, sin embargo, en el 44% de las muestras analizadas se observaron la presencia de un pico con un tiempo de retención similar al de la señal del estándar de cannabidiol (CBD). La metodología analítica empleada fue la más indicada para el análisis de las muestras de té, no así para el análisis de productos cosméticos, por lo que se sugiere optimizar el método de extracción para este tipo de productos.

En el contexto del diseño gráfico (DG), la inteligencia artificial (IA) es una tecnología disruptiva que causa polémica y fascinación. Sin embargo, el trabajo en conjunto de la IA con el DG tiene varias décadas de desarrollo. Por esta razón, a partir de varios métodos para interpretar la visualización bibliométrica y elementos metodológicos se realizó un análisis enfocado en las diferentes etapas que atravesó la IA con relación al DG. Asimismo, se identificaron las relaciones sociotécnicas que construyeron la IA y el DG en los últimos años. De esta manera, se generó un mapa ecosistémico para entender la multiplicidad de relaciones y enfoques de ambas disciplinas hasta la fecha. Esto evidenció una síntesis disciplinar estabilizada por medio de subáreas académicas en desarrollo y potenciales campos de aplicación.
Towards a Study of the Architectural Decoration of Public Buildings in Parion During the Early Roman Empire
Authors: Stoyanov Roman
Published: September 2024

Parion was one of the principal centers of the Roman province of Asia, and the remains of several public buildings adorned with intricate architectural decorations have been uncovered and partially explored. Among these structures are a theater, an odeon, and thermae, all dating to the Roman Empire. In addition to these edifices, other public buildings in the central part of Roman-era Parion remain undiscovered, raising im-portant questions about the organization of public space and the architectural character of the city’s core during the Early Empire. One of the most promising areas for further exploration is the “Agora” sector, bordered to the south by the odeon and to the north by the theater and thermae. This article offers an architectural and histori-cal analysis of the Corinthian order details found in this sector. The architectural elements discussed were un-covered during archaeological excavations conducted between 2015 and 2022 (Figs. 1-6). Although the availa-ble materials are insufficient to definitively identify the specific structures to which these decorative elements belonged, their forms, ornamentation, dimensions, and modules exhibit notable similarities to the architectural details of the southern façade of Hadrian’s Gate in Ephesus. This resemblance suggests a commonality in their architectural compositions and, by extension, the types of structures they adorned. Consequently, it is plausible to infer that these architectural elements were part of a portico associated with a building complex in the Agora. The design of this complex (or at least part of it) likely reflects Hadrian’s extensive building program in the Ro-man province of Asia.

This research outlined the professional performance profile of the 'social innovation agent' at Embrapa. This definition strengthens the social innovation actions in the Company and in the partner institutions, establishing the main roles to be played to promote socioeconomic development in the context of family farming. The research adopted the qualitative approach of the bibliographic review type. It was concluded that the exercise of the function of social innovation agent is comprehensive and involves a range of attributions that complement and interrelate each other. Three categories of roles were identified, considered essential to compose the professional profile of this function, namely: articulation, facilitation and management. The exercise of these roles does not require the development/acquisition of specialized technical and procedural knowledge (skills) that are the basis for the development of roles/competencies, and Embrapa should be the protagonist in the training of these agents to strengthen the Innovation ecosystem in family farming.

Optimizing a Novel Tracking System for Living Beings and Objects through Advanced Mathematical Modeling and Graph Theory
Authors: Anass Ariss , Imane Ennejjai , Mabrouki Jamal , Ziti Soumia
Published: September 2024

This study extends the formulation of a tracking system for both live items and living persons, and gives a thorough theoretical framework for an advanced tracking system. A large number of tracking systems in use today were created inside certain frameworks and designed to monitor in either infinite or restricted spatial contexts. The latter typically makes use of specialized technological instruments designed with tracking objects or living things in mind. Our contribution to this topic is the formulation of a system theory that both formulates and innovates the challenge of monitoring objects and living things. Graphical modeling is widely used in tracking, which is interesting because it makes it easier to create precise relationships between the objects that need to be tracked and other parts of the system. But our study argues that the best way to achieve a high-performing, contextually relevant, and flexible system in a range of scenarios is still to build a tracking system around graphs, both theoretically and practically. We provide a unique tracking method to further the discipline, based on the ideas of hypergraphs and graph learning. This method carefully examines the order between various linkages inside the system, allowing the system to fully use both direct and indirect relations. The way we formulate tracking is as a complex search problem on graphs and hypergraphs. In this case, the system's components—living things or objects—are represented by vertices, and the kinds of relationships that exist between them are indicated by edges. We present a governing law that facilitates different processing tasks, manages shared data across system parts, and defines the connections between vertices. Additionally, we provide illustrated examples covering single and multi-context tracking scenarios to support our work. These illustrations highlight how, in comparison to current tracking technologies, the suggested approach performs better theoretically. In addition to adding to the theoretical conversation, this discovery has potential applicability in a variety of tracking contexts

The study aims to review the different systems of emergency care in North American, European, and Pan-Asian countries and to perform a comparative analysis of these modes of organisation. The emergency care systems of Kyrgyzstan, Germany, the United States of America, the United Kingdom, South Korea, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates were analysed, and it was determined that the Anglo-American and Franco-German model of emergency care is currently dominant in the world. The main difference with the system built in Kazakhstan is that ambulance brigades in the above countries consist of nursing staff, in these countries there is a double triage of patients at the stage of call and the stage of distribution of patients in the emergency department, and the last main difference is that the emergency department in Kazakhstan is organised based on an emergency room and does not include intensive care, dynamic observation, there is no diagnostic unit and palliative care unit. Another difference is the training of non-medical services in the comparison countries, such as police and firefighters, who have the necessary basic skills to provide emergency care. This study will help in the future to use foreign experience in the organisation of emergency care in the Republic of Kazakhstan, which may have a positive impact on the quality and speed of emergency care

Introduction: The use of machine learning (ML) approaches to improve energy utilization in smart urban environments has garnered significant attention in recent years.Objective: This research presents an innovative structure called a bi-fold mechanism-driven convolutional deep network (BMCDN) for estimating the energy performance of urban public facilities in urban energy management systems.Methods: The suggested method includes two significant phases: (1) feature extraction and fusion, and (2) energy significance estimation. The attention fine-tuned ResNet (N1) processes street-view images to evaluate anticipated market significance levels, while the attention-based Bi-LSTM (N2) integrates cross-domain features using input attention. A decision tree (DT) is used to combine and evaluate the fused information and estimated values, serving as the energy value estimator to determine energy values. Data gathered related to public facilities' energy efficiency from various sources is used to analyze the effectiveness of the suggested framework.  Results: The research presents an analysis of the performance gains using image-only representations and a proposed approach with morphological traits. The findings demonstrate that incorporating smart urban-related façade images improves the accuracy of the proposed framework and highlights the connection between energy usage and public facilities.Conclusions: This study shows the potential for significant precision along with rapid inference time in predicting the energy performance of urban public facilities by combining data from numerous sources. Keywords: Urban energy management; public facilities; machine learning (ML); multi-source data; bi-fold mechanism-driven convolutional deep network (BMCDN)

In the contemporary world, the issue of a sustainable environment is under significant attention by researchers and policymakers. However, the role of energy sources, both in terms of renewable and non-renewable, cannot be ignored in determining environmental pollution and related issues. This study aims to examine the trends in environmental sustainability as measured through carbon dioxide emissions while considering the role of renewable energy, non-renewable energy, ecological innovation, institutional quality, and economic growth in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The time period of the study consists of 1995-2020 with yearly observations. For the purpose of literature discussion, both theoretical and empirical studies have been covered through critical analysis.Furthermore, this study considers novel approaches entitled auto-regressive distributed lag (ARDL) in order to estimate the relationships between the variables. The initial results confirm the presence of stationarity properties and the cointegrated association between the variables of interest. On the other side, the long-run results through ARDL show that renewable energy, ecological innovations, institutional quality, and square of economic growth are playing their significant and productive role in reducing carbon emissions. On the other side, non-renewable energy sources and economic growth are causing more carbon emissions, hence confirming the presence of the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC). Based on such findings, several policy suggestions have been provided along with limitations and future directions
