Educational Management is based on democratic principles and is focused on the development and quality of teaching, allowing people to recognize the importance of collective and conscious participation in decisions involving collective interest. This idea envisages the realization of Educational Management, where everyone, in addition to overcoming limitations, can share the responsibilities of teamwork. Society is increasingly demanding to have a quality education, which means that all segments are always looking to improve the structures, the qualification of the teaching staff and thus have a better education. This requires responsibility and organization of all sectors of a school, it is necessary to focus on the processes that provide a safe and effective constructive teaching environment for the entire school environment. For educational management to have a good development, everyone needs to feel involved, from the administrative to the pedagogical sector, where managers must optimize activities and increase the efficiency of teaching within the educational institution.

Published: August 2023

This study sought to investigate the factors responsible for the persistence of moral decadence among the youth in PCEA Chuka Presbytery in spite of the measures taken by PCEA to curb it. Moral decadence among the youth has been rampant globally. Research and media reports indicate that a high percentage of youths indulge in anti-social vices such as indecent dressing, drug abuse, pre-marital sex, violence and crime, among others. Despite interventions by religious organisations, government sectors and other actors, the persistence of moral decline among the youth continues to be a threat to society. The study adopted the Descriptive survey design. It was carried out in Chuka Presbytery, located in the Eastern region of PCEA in Tharaka Nithi County. The target population was 3286 church members comprising 6 church ministers, 1743 adult church members and 1537 youths in the six parishes of Chuka Presbytery. The sample size was 334. Data was obtained using Focus Group Discussions, interviews and questionnaires. The study established that the persistence of youth moral decadence resulted from multiple factors, including inadequate parental upbringing, youth pursuit and the quest for materialism, peer pressure, a decline in religious, moral instruction, and an opulent lifestyle, among others. In view of the findings obtained in this study, it is recommended that the clergy and other Chuka presbytery members involved in implementing youth moral programmes should embrace the use of more innovative ways of delivering moral education to the youth.

É compreendida como Práticas Integrativas e Complementares (PICs) um conjunto de sistemas e práticas com produtos de uso clínico, não considerado como prática médica convencional. Contudo, o consumo dessas plantas no Brasil é caracterizado pelo uso empírico, uma vez que os consumidores geralmente não reconhecem os fatores como intoxicação, reações alérgicas e os efeitos adversos dessas plantas, decorrentes do uso indiscriminado. Assim, este trabalho objetivou relatar a experiência acerca de uma ação educativa sobre o uso de fitoterápicos para hipertensos com um grupo de HiperDia de uma Unidade Básica de Saúde do nordeste brasileiro. A intervenção ocorreu na UBS com esse grupo. Os tipos de chás trabalhados foram 12, canela, folha de laranja, folhas de chuchu, hortelã-pimenta, gengibre, capim santo, camomila, erva-cidreira, boldo, hibisco, erva-doce. Para a materialização da ação, foram utilizadas metodologias ativas. Foi percebido que a maioria dos hipertensos ali presentes, além de realizar a prática fitoterápica como maneira moderadora dos índices pressóricos, também relatavam prazer ao consumir as ervas, como uma atividade costumeiramente alimentar e desconhecendo as contraindicações relacionadas ao perfil de doenças crônicas.

Abstract. Landfills are a significant source of fugitive methane (CH4) emissions which should be precisely and regularly monitored to reduce and mitigate net greenhouse gas emissions. In this study, we present long-term in-situ near-surface mobile atmospheric CH4 mole fraction measurements (complemented by meteorological measurements from a fixed station) from 21 campaigns that cover approximately four years from September 2016 to December 2020. These campaigns were utilized to regularly quantify the total CH4 emissions from an active landfill in France. We use a simple atmospheric inversion approach based on a Gaussian plume dispersion model to derive CH4 emissions. Together with the measurements near the soil surface mainly dedicated to the identification of sources within the landfill, measurements of CH4 made on the landfill perimeter (near-field) helped us to provide some qualitative insights about the respective weight of the main areas of emissions. However, we hardly managed to extract a signal representative of the overall landfill emissions from these measurements, which limited our ability to derive robust estimates of the emissions when assimilating them in the atmospheric inversions. The analysis shows that the inversions based on the measurements from a remote road further away from the landfill (far-field) yielded more reliable estimates. According to these estimates, the total CH4 emissions have a large temporal variability and range from ~0.4 t CH4/d to ~7 t CH4/d, with an average value of ~2.1 t CH4/d. We find a weak negative correlation between these estimates of the CH4 emissions and atmospheric pressure for the active landfill. However, this weak emission-pressure relationship is based on a relatively small sample of reliable emission estimates with large sampling gaps. More frequent robust estimations are required to better understand this relationship for an active landfill.
Increasing frequency and lengthening season of western disturbances is linked to increasing strength and delayed northward migration of the subtropical jet
Authors: Hunt Kieran M. R.
Published: August 2023

Abstract. Western disturbances (WDs) are cyclonic storms that travel along the subtropical jet, bringing the majority of seasonal and extreme precipitation to mountainous South Asia in the winter months. They are a vital component of the region's water security. Although typically most common in the winter, WDs can also occur during the summer monsoon with catastrophic consequences. This happened earlier this year, leading to fatal floods across North India, including Delhi. Preceded by an unusually harsh winter season, questions are now being asked about how climate change is affecting WD frequency and intensity in both summer and winter seasons. An analysis of 17 previous studies assessing trends in WD frequency revealed no consensus, at least in part because they quantified trends in different regions, seasons, and time periods. In this study, a more robust approach is used, quantifying trends in WD frequency and intensity by region and month, using a track catalogue derived from seventy years of ERA5 reanalysis data. Winter WDs have increased significantly over the Western and Central Himalaya and Hindu Kush in the last 70 years. This trend is attributed to a strengthening of the subtropical jet. The WD season has also significantly lengthened with WDs becoming far more common in May, June and July. For example, WDs have been twice as common in June in the last twenty years than during the previous fifty. This is attributed to delayed northward retreat of the subtropical jet, which historically has occurred before the onset of the summer monsoon. The most important implication is that the frequency of `monsoonal' WDs is increasing significantly, and therefore, due to climate change, catastrophic events like the 2013 Uttarakhand floods and the 2023 North India floods are becoming much more frequent.
Subseasonal-to-seasonal forecasts of Heat waves in West African cities

Published: August 2023

Abstract. Heat waves are one of the most dangerous climatic hazards for human and ecosystem health worldwide. Accurate forecasts of these dramatic events are useful for policy makers and climate services to anticipate risks and develop appropriate responses. Sub-seasonal to seasonal forecasts are of great importance for actions to mitigate the human and health consequences of extreme heat. In this perspective, the present study addresses the predictability of heat waves at sub-seasonal to seasonal time scale in West African cities over the period 2001–2020. Two types of heat waves were analyzed: dry and wet heat waves using 2-meter temperature (T2m) and wet bulb temperature (Tw) respectively. Two models that are part of the S2S forecasting project, namely the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) and the UK Met Office models, were evaluated using two state-of-the-art reanalysis products, namely the fifth generation ECMWF reanalysis (ERA5) and the Modern-Era Retrospective analysis for Research and Application. The skill of the models to detect hot extreme events is evaluated using the Brier score. The models show significant skills in detecting hot days both for short- and long-term forecasts (2- and 5-week lead times, respectively). The predictability of heat waves in the forecast models is assessed by calculating categorical metrics such as the hit-rate, the Gilbert score and the false alarm ratio (FAR). The forecast models show significant skills in predicting heat wave days compared to a baseline climatology, mainly for short-term forecasts (two weeks lead time) in three climatic regions in West Africa, but the hit-rate values remain below 50 % on average. We find that nighttime heat waves are more predictable than daytime heat waves. On average, the False Alarm Ratio (FAR) is excessively high and tends to increase with the lead time. Only approximately 15 % to 30 % of the predicted heat wave days are actually observed for Week 5 and Week 2, respectively. This suggests that the models overestimate the duration of the heat waves with respect to ERA5. The skill of the models in forecasting dry and wet heat waves are very close. Although the models demonstrate skills on heat wave detection compared to a baseline climatology, they fail in predicting the intensity of heat waves.
Assessing the spatial spread–skill of ensemble flood maps with remote-sensing observations
Authors: Hooker Helen , Dance Sarah L. , Mason David C. , Bevington John , Shelton Kay
Published: August 2023

Abstract. An ensemble of forecast flood inundation maps has the potential to represent the uncertainty in the flood forecast and provide a location-specific likelihood of flooding. Ensemble flood map forecasts provide probabilistic information to flood forecasters, flood risk managers and insurers and will ultimately benefit people living in flood-prone areas. Spatial verification of the ensemble flood map forecast against remotely observed flooding is important to understand both the skill of the ensemble forecast and the uncertainty represented in the variation or spread of the individual ensemble-member flood maps. In atmospheric sciences, a scale-selective approach has been used to evaluate a convective precipitation ensemble forecast. This determines a skilful scale (agreement scale) of ensemble performance by locally computing a skill metric across a range of length scales. By extending this approach through a new application, we evaluate the spatial predictability and the spatial spread–skill of an ensemble flood forecast across a domain of interest. The spatial spread–skill method computes an agreement scale at every grid cell between each unique pair of ensemble flood maps (ensemble spatial spread) and between each ensemble flood map with a SAR-derived flood map (ensemble spatial skill; SAR: synthetic aperture radar). These two are compared to produce the final spatial spread–skill performance. These methods are applied to the August 2017 flood event on the Brahmaputra River in the Assam region of India. Both the spatial skill and spread–skill relationship vary with location and can be linked to the physical characteristics of the flooding event such as the location of heavy precipitation. During monitoring of flood inundation accuracy in operational forecasting systems, validation and mapping of the spatial spread–skill relationship would allow better quantification of forecast systematic biases and uncertainties. This would be particularly useful for ungauged catchments where forecast streamflows are uncalibrated and would enable targeted model improvements to be made across different parts of the forecast chain.
Renewable Energy Complementarity (RECom) Maps – a comprehensive visualisation tool to support spatial diversification
Authors: Vrana Til Kristian , Svendsen Harald G.
Published: August 2023

Abstract. Maps showing the mean wind speed only give an inaccurate indication on the quality of locations for future wind power developments. Calculating the capacity factor (based on a weather time series and a wind turbine power curve) and plotting that on a map gives a better indication on the expected mean power output, but the outcome depends on the turbine choice. In this article, the mentioned dependency is compensated for by putting the expected mean power output in relation to the expected mean power output of all other wind parks of the region (assuming that they use the same turbine type). This relative capacity factor results in nice comprehensive wind resource maps, and can be plotted for the situation today and also for a future scenario. Since the expected income of a potential wind park is the product of mean power output and mean market value, looking at the relative capacity factor only does not give the full picture. The mean market value is influenced by the merit order effect that is mainly driven by covariance with other wind parks and the capacity factor's relation to production at low-wind moments. A market value factor is introduced that captures the expected mean market value relative to other wind parks, based on a simplified power market model. Finally the RECom index is defined, combining the relative capacity factor and market value factor into a single index, resulting in the RECom map. This map can comprehensively show the revenue potential of different locations for potential future wind power developments.

Belém, Historia, Política, Arquitectura y Fotografía
Authors: Pinheiro Nuno
Published: August 2023

Belém es una de las partes más conocidas de Lisboa. Tiene dos de los monumentos más importantes y más fotografiados de Portugal desde los años 1860. Torre de Belém y Monasterio de Jerónimos, los dos son simbólicos de la Edad de Oro de Portugal, la de las grandes viajes de descubrimientos marítimos. Estos monumentos ganarán una gran importancia simbólica a fines del siglo XIX, sobre todo cuando se organizaron las fiestas del tricentenario de Camões. Antes de eso habían sido el sujeto de fotografías, sobre todo estereoscópicas de fotógrafos portugueses y extranjeros que veían en ellos un ejemplo de exotismo. Este exotismo era dado por el estilo manuelino, característico de los años cercanos a 1500 y que incorporaba una decoración inspirada en el mar y la naturaleza. 
Cruzando fotografía, historia e ideología, intentaremos entender cómo se tornó esta parte de Lisboa tan simbólica y tan importante como uno de los principales locales de memoria en Portugal. Cuestionaremos la fotografía como instrumento ideológico y del deseo burgués de construir una memoria visual de la Historia.

Eğitim Felsefesi Bağlamında Kültürün Kavramsal Çerçevesinin İncelenmesi
Authors: Boyacı Nejat

Today, the words civilized, civilized are also used instead of the word cultured to describe the individual who reflects ideal behavior patterns. With the usage here, culture is used to meet the idealized abstract facts of a certain group in the society instead of the common behavior patterns reflected by the society in general. In daily life, the concept of culture is used to meet many phenomena such as art, behavior, civilization, folklore, speech, dressing and lifestyle. Although culture is considered as the general life style of a society in the first place, the concept of culture is one of the concepts that cannot be agreed upon in its definition. The word culture can correspond to intangible and material elements. It is thought that the word culture emerged as a concept related to agriculture. The word culture has been used in the concrete sense, which symbolizes all kinds of tools produced by people, as well as its abstract meaning such as anxiety and beliefs. Culture is the basis of the behavioral patterns that people acquire during the struggle with nature and as a result of their relations with each other. The solutions that people find in order to get out of difficult situations have become permanent over time and ensure the formation of culture. Due to its cultural content, it can concern many disciplines. This situation leads to the emergence of different definitions. The technical systems produced by the societies to meet their material needs and the relation systems such as customs, traditions and customs constitute the culture. In the times when the word culture was first used, economic and social life was an agriculture-based life, so it should be considered normal that the concepts formed at that time were agricultural-based. Abstract meanings have been attributed to the concept of culture, which is embodied with the meanings of raising, sowing and reaping. The concept is more common nowadays; It is used to meet abstract phenomena such as customs, traditions, customs, art, language, folklore. Society and culture are two intertwined elements. In order to talk about culture, there must be a community of people. While the organized coexistence of people creates the society, the continuity of the society in harmony is thanks to culture. Law, ethics, etiquette, science, technique, art, medicine, architecture, etc., created by human beings from the time they set foot in the world until today. All material and intangible outputs constitute the culture. Keywords: Educational Philosophy, Culture, Organizational Culture

Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo compreender como se estabelecem os rituais de interação entre um estudante com Transtorno do Déficit de Atenção com Hiperatividade (TDAH) e seus colegas de uma escola pública municipal do Médio Vale do Itajaí, Santa Catarina. A pesquisa, de abordagem qualitativa, caracterizou-se como um estudo de caso realizado a partir de observação participante do cotidiano escolar e conversas informais com as crianças da turma. Os resultados mostraram que os rituais de interação se manifestam por coalização de aliança e de conflito. A primeira, marcada por uma carga emocional de solidariedade entre os colegas, contribui para o sentimento de pertença da criança ao grupo e à escola. Esses rituais de interação, caracterizados por brincadeiras, atitudes colaborativas e cumplicidade, fortalecem a inclusão da criança com TDAH na escola. Já as coalizões de conflito, marcadas por desentendimentos e confrontos, provocam a ruptura de cadeias de interações, levando sentimentos de descontamento e exclusão.

Authors: C Nayak Smita , S Jadhav Vedika , H Bhaskar Vaidhun
Published: August 2023

The goal of modern vaccine development is to provide effective vaccines that are safe and well-tolerated. This has inspired the rational design of contemporary subunit vaccines that are both safe and well-characterized, combining essential immunogenic components of pathogen characteristics to induce tailored responses with the right strength, quality, and specificity. Because of their capacity to overcome biological barriers, prolong circulation periods, and create an improved long-lasting protective immunological impact, nano vaccines have been researched as an emerging field in cancer immunotherapy in recent years. Nanotechnology is a broad discipline that can be applied to a variety of fields, including vaccines. It offers a variety of approaches to vaccine administration. A combination of nanotechnology and vaccines, i.e. nanovaccines can be created and injected into the human body to improve health by various mechanisms. Many vaccines contain adjuvants, which boost immunity to vaccines and experimental antigens through several methods including the development of a depot, the activation of cytokines and chemokines, the recruitment of immune cells, the enhancement of antigen absorption and presentation, and the promotion of antigen transport to draining lymph nodes. Such adjuvants have also been reported to induce innate immune responses at the injection site, resulting in a local immuno-competent microenvironment. This review focuses on the study of Self-adjuvanted nano vaccines.

In today’s India, every stage is a battle. In this competitive era everyone from children to adults want to win the race. But some children are lagging behind due to some of the factors like less memory power, low retention power etc. such a child are referred as slow learners. They may have potential to grow but due to some surrounding factors its effecting their mental growth and its effecting both their physical and psychological state. If parents and teachers find out the exact cause and try to find the solution for that then they may achieve something in the life. Those who are having an intelligence quotient (IQ) score between 71 to 84 are called as Slow learner.

A research in management of a higher education field has a significant benefit in optimizing the quality of education. The aims of this research are to explain the trends in publication research on management of higher education and its implication to the next developmental researches. This research uses bibliometric analysis method with the data from the most frequently accessed index, Google Scholar database. The Data are collected from the available publications in Google scholar by searching the keywords on management, educational management, and management of higher education through the titles, the abstracts, as well as the keywords using the publish and perish software. The finding from the research mapping indicates that researchers tend to team up collectively in their institution. The majority of management researches in higher education is still dominated by researchers who adopt the function of educational management as the scientific sources in developing the management of higher education. The researchers recommend conducting a number of joint researches between institutions and cross countries to enrich scientific integration and propose some considerations to the policy makers for setting up a more efficient and comprehensive management policy of the higher education.
Activity Theory for Examining the Effects of the Story Continuation Writing Task on English Writing Quality
Authors: Teng Xuan
Published: August 2023

Given the importance of the continuation task for English learning and testing in China and recent attempts to examine second or foreign language (L2) writing process in relation to social, cultural, and historical contexts, this study draws on the framework of Activity Theory (AT) to investigate the effects of story continuation writing task (SCWT) on Chinese high school students’ writing quality. Based on performance on SCWT and responses to semi-structured interviews from eighty Chinese high school students, the findings of this study demonstrate that the exploitation of AT-informed SCWT exhibited positive effects on improving English writing quality in terms of content, structure, and language use. Students utilized the mediation within and between the activity systems to facilitate their L2 written production. This study contributes to the research on the effectiveness of SCWT through the utilization of an L2 writing instructional model that was based on AT. It also throws light on the L2 writing process mediated by the continuation task and offers pedagogical implications to the English writing classroom.

Authors: Faeghinia A. , Nuranian Hossein , Eslami Mojtaba
Published: August 2023

In targeted drug delivery, the drug is released at a specific and desired point and condition. In this research, magnetite cores (high saturation magnetization property (emu.g-159) were used to target the drug system. First, magnetite nanoparticles were synthesized by coprecipitation method from divalent and trivalent chloride salts of iron (FeCl2 and FeCl3), then mesoporous silicas (with a pore diameter of 13 nm) were formed by Stöber's method from the tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) silica source on magnetite cores in spheres form. After that, the carbon quantum dots were synthesized by hydrothermal method from citric acid and their surface was immobilized by dimethylamine which were placed in silica cavities by physical adsorption method.
The effective drug melatonin (6.46 mg of melatonin per 100 mg of the drug system) was also loaded on this system by physical absorption method and the release of this drug was carefully determined by the release from the dialysis bag in the simulated environment of blood and cancer tissue. the quantum gain of the system was determined to be about 40%. The results showed that the loading of melatonin drug and carbon quantum dots was done well on silica nanoparticles with magnetite cores, and this system releases 30% of the drug even under temperature conditions.

In this research, NASICON type (LiZrXTi2-X(PO4)3) glass-ceramics were fabricated (x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4). Lithium-ion conductivity along with the crystallization tendency and microstructural features were examined in this regard. Parent glasses obtained through melt quenching were converted to the glass-ceramic specimens after one-step heat treatment procedure. The resultant glass-ceramics were deeply explored by means of different techniques including scanning electron microscope, differential thermal analysis, X-ray diffractometry, and ionic conductivity measurements. According to the obtained results, presence of Zr4+ ions in the glass network and its gradual increase caused the enhanced crystallization temperature as well as declined crystallinity and microstructure coarsening. In all studied glass-ceramics, LiT2(PO4)3 solid solution was the dominant crystalline phase and Zr4+ ions partly substituted in the structure of this crystalline phase. Moreover, presence of Zr4+ ions in the glass composition resulted in diminished lithium-ion conductivity of corresponded glass-ceramics at ambient temperature. Consequently, total conductivity of specimen with the highest level of ZrO2 (x = 0.4) was measured to be 0.78 x 10-5 Scm-1, being considerably less than ionic conductivity of the base (x = 0) glass-ceramic (3.04 x 10-5 Scm-1). It seems that less crystallinity of ZrO2 containing glass-ceramics decreases required connectivity between the lithium-ion free paths and is responsible for the diminished ionic conductivity of these specimens.
