El arte dramático en el desarrollo de habilidades lingüísticas en el aprendizaje del idioma Inglés
Authors: Carbajal Amaya Roberto Vladimir
Published: February 2023

Este trabajo se basa en mostrar las técnicas teatrales del arte dramático que pueden aumentar el efecto, y la calidad de la enseñanza y el aprendizaje de un idioma, basado en la experiencia propiciada con la incorporación de estas técnicas y estrategias que dan lugar a abrir los procesos de enseñanza– aprendizaje, en un contexto en el cual el estudiante se apropia de su formación. El arte dramático, y en general las artes, propician la creatividad, la imaginación, el trabajo cooperativo y la expresividad a través de nuestro cuerpo, desarrollar destrezas y habilidades tales como la oralidad que contribuyen al aprendizaje de la lengua; así como también la integración de metodologías y técnicas comunicativas a la enseñanza de las lenguas. Los docentes de lenguas tienen la posibilidad de ampliar estas competencias por medio de actividades que estimulen al educando, ya que una lengua se aprende y se domina con mayor pericia cuando se recurre a fundamentos que ayudan el trabajo comunicativo y se desarrolla el deseo de compartir, interactuar y ampliar experiencias, lo que favorecería un escenario para la comunicación fluida y en un contexto más libre y abierto.

Authors: Rueda Perea María Alejandra , Flórez Romero Andrés , Latorre Núñez Yulieth
Published: February 2023

Introducción: la tiroiditis subaguda (TSA) es el trastorno inflamatorio tiroideo doloroso más frecuente, el cual, predominantemente, es precedido por infecciones respiratorias virales.
Objetivo: revisión de la literatura en la base de datos Pubmed sobre TSA, respecto a la etiología y su relación con el virus SARS-CoV-2, su presentación clínica y una comparación entre los diferentes esquemas de tratamiento con glucocorticoides.
Presentación del caso: paciente femenina de 29 años que presentó infección respiratoria leve por COVID-19, con pruebas de función tiroidea con TSH suprimida y T4 libre aumentada, previamente normales. Ausencia de sintomatología de TSA u otra afección tiroidea y ecografía de tiroides con evidencia de adenopatías bilaterales. Gammagrafía con reporte de “casi ausencia de la representación gammagráfica de la glándula tiroidea” con índice de atrapamiento de tecnecio: 1.4 (N:2-5-4.5).
Discusión y conclusión: el compromiso de la glándula tiroidea como secuela de la infección respiratoria aguda por COVID-19 se manifiesta desde la enfermedad de Graves, tiroiditis de Hashimoto, hasta la tiroiditis subaguda, siendo este el trastorno más comúnmente asociado. El curso clínico de la TSA en SARS-CoV-2 se presenta más de manera indolora en un periodo de latencia entre la infección y la tiroiditis cuando es menor, o incluso se da simultáneamente.
La TSA es un trastorno inflamatorio tiroideo, siendo el SARS-CoV-2 un nuevo agente causal, con cambios en la presentación clínica. El mayor impacto de los corticoides en el manejo de la tiroiditis subaguda está en el control del dolor; por lo que considerar su uso posterior a uso de Aines y ante la posibilidad de recurrencia del dolor, debe darse durante 4-6 semanas.

About the paper:
In this study, we discuss two wild seafood harvests that are popular among residents of the largest urban and peri-urban region of Alaska: dipnet fishing for salmon on the Kenai River and clam digging on the beaches of the Kenai Peninsula. Our goal is twofold: to provide descriptive information on these understudied aspects of the food system and to also contribute to the broader discussion of wild food harvests in the lives and experiences of urban residents, where the issues of people’s connections with nature, tradition and self-determination, sustainability, and social and environmental justice all arguably converge.
Multilingual Computational Linguistics (Lecture at the University of Passau in the Winter Term 2022/2023)
Authors: List Johann-Mattis
Published: February 2023

While the discipline of computational linguistics mostly deals with the modeling and the investigation of individual languages (often "big" languages such as English, German, Arabic, or Chinese), Multilingual Computational Linguistics focuses on the comparison of languages, trying to develop new methods and techniques by which languages can be compared automatically or in a computer-assisted manner. The comparison itself follows different perspectives (maintaining a historical, typological, or areal viewpoint). In this scientific practice course, we will take a closer look at basic theories and methods which are relevant for the discipline of Multilingual Computational Linguistics. We will look at large corpora with multiple languages of the world as well as data from individual languages and language families.

Diverse natural mechanisms against pain, inflammation, and several other infections are varied for medicinal plants. Inflammation is unique biological defense mechanism against harmful stimuli like infections, harmed cells, or irritants. M. charantia is frequently used to treat a variety of illnesses, including fever, discomfort, and inflammation. The purpose of the current study is to identify the anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and analgesic properties of ethanolic extract of M. charantia. 30 rats were divided into three groups (control, standard and experimental group). Control and standard group contain 5 rats in each group whereas experimental group contained 20 rats. All rats in three groups were treated with carrageenan for induction of oedema, yeast to induce pyrexia and acetic acid to induce pain. Control group rats were treated with normal saline for all the activities. Standard group rats were treated with diclofenac for anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities and paracetamol for antipyretic activity. The fruit extract was injected into abdominal muscles and intraperitoneal tissues.Carrageenan, an anti-inflammatory substance, was used to assess its ability to reduce spell edema, acetic acid was used to study its ability to cause writhing and yeast, was used to demonstrate its ability to pyrexia. The maximal percentage of fruit extract inhibition in anti-inflammatory action was 31.25%. The maximal percentage of fruit extract inhibition against fever was 83.58%. Maximum percentage of inhibition against stomach pain during analgesic action was 31%. Significant findings in anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and analgesic actions were demonstrated at doses of 200 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg, and 100 mg/kg, respectively, when compared to controls. Our research demonstrates and validates the traditional medical usage of M. charantia. It was concluded that ethanolic fruit extract of M. charantia may decrease inflammation, pyrexia and writhing in albino rats effectively.
Factors Driving Entrepreneurial Orientation among Undergraduate Students in Zimbabwe: Questioning Pedagogical Perspectives and Entrepreneurial Intentions
Authors: Mbuyisa E. , Shiri A. , Chirume S.
Published: February 2023

The paradigm shift in contemporary university curriculum is to produce employment creators rather than job seekers. This study explores the enterprise related entrepreneurship course content that may be ranked as most desirable in developing entrepreneurial intentions among university students. The problem is that the broad and widening focus of entrepreneurship courses offered at most universities appear not to provide an understanding of the specific characteristics that drive entrepreneurial intent among students with different social and economic backgrounds. Therefore, the objective of this study was to test and evaluate subject content items that are most influential in promoting entrepreneurial intentions among undergraduate students with the intention of recommending a streamlined entrepreneurship curriculum. A 26-item questionnaire was used to collect data from 300 participants in the Faculty of Business Sciences at Midlands State University. A quantitative descriptive analysis of the independent variables was made. Consistent with previous studies examining entrepreneurial intention, we also conducted correlations to check on the direction and strength of the relationships among the variables. A short regression analysis was also run (using SPSS 21) to check whether entrepreneurial intentions could be explained by some variables related to teaching approaches. The study found that opportunity recognition, independence and pitching of business ideas were the top items in the module content that inspired the intention to start an enterprise among undergraduate students. The study adds value to curriculum development by identifying entrepreneurship course content that increases the desire to be independent and shifta student’s focus from a job seeker to a career and enterprise development orientation.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the function of ICT technologies, in English language instruction and acquisition with a focus on the COVID-19 pandemic. This study focuses on ICT resources including systems, Internet, mobile apps, websites, language learning centers, and YouTube, how ICT tools were used during the COVID-19 pandemic and how they helped teachers and students in the classroom. The study concludes that each instrument described plays an important role in English educational activities, as well as in increasing the learner’s skills, helps learners work at their own pace and gives learners more control over their own learning, and facilities collaborative and cooperative learning.
A Comparative Study on the English Translation of the Personalized Language of the Character Huniu (虎妞) in Luotuo Xiangzi
Authors: Jing Cao , Mansor Nor Shahila , Ujum Diana Abu
Published: February 2023

This study aims to compare and discuss the Chinese-English translations of Huniu’s (虎妞) personalized language in four different English translations of the Chinese novel Luotuo Xiangzi, supported by Nida’s theory of “functional equivalence” and with a demonstration of the features of Huniu’s personalized language that lead to difficulties in translation as a framework for the analysis. The analysis reveals that, when translating Huniu’s personalized language, the translators adopted various translation methods, including euphemism, literal translation, deletion, and free translation. The findings indicate that the use of euphemisms as a translation strategy does not support maintaining the character’s language features and style when translating the swear words used by the character. Proactive changes in the tone of the speech of the character in translation impacts the reproduction of that character’s personality and image. In addition, Huniu’s language style of the Beijing dialect is difficult to maintain in translation. These findings serve as a reference for the Chinese-English translation of a character’s personalized language in novels to facilitate the dissemination of Chinese literature around the world.
Henry Fielding’s Shamela and Joseph Andrews as Counternarratives to Samuel Richardson’s Pamela
Authors: Alatrash Muhammad, K.,
Published: February 2023

This paper sheds light on the immediate counternarrative response to the publication of Samuel Richardson’s Pamela in 1740. Upon its publication, the female servant Pamela gained popularity among readers for her exemplary chastity, morality and virtue. This paper discusses the writings of Henry Fielding as a leading anti-Pamela approach through two subsequent narratives, Shamela (1741) and Joseph Andrews (1742). Fielding and others saw in Pamela a direct threat to 18th-century normative servant-master and aristocrat-bourgeois relations. In his novels, Fielding uses multiple literary motifs to confront Pamela’s readership with their beloved character’s hypocrisy and deception. Through his works, Fielding breaks down Richardson’s narrative to present Pamela as the deceptively structured plot of a hypocritical servant to marry her master and elevate her social status. Fielding bridges his narrative with Richardson’s novel to create a mode of skepticism concerning the moral values of Pamela’s readers. In Joseph Andrews, Fielding extends his criticism, presenting the novel as an offshoot to Richardson’s Pamela and highlighting an alternative reality to expose Pamela’s false images of chastity and virtue.
The Perception of Status: The Refusal Strategies as Articulated by Tunisian EFL Teachers and British Speakers of English
Authors: Alasmari Nasser
Published: February 2023

The current research aims to find out if the perception of status is culture related. To this end, it compares the refusal strategies articulated by two groups of people namely, Tunisian EFL teachers who are currently working at the University of Jeddah and a group of British speakers when communicating with others with higher, equal, or lower status than theirs.  Results indicated that the Tunisian group is much more sensitive to status than their British counterparts. The former group uses indirect refusal strategies with interlocutors of equal or higher positions but is more direct in expressing objection when talking to people with lower positions. By contrast, the British are found to be less sensitive to status as their answers were consistent irrespective of their interlocutors’ status. As a matter of fact, social status for the British group has nothing to do with the educational level or occupation while the opposite is true for the Tunisian group. The findings of the present paper are congruent with other studies which compared the Western and the Arab perceptions of status and found that the latter’s sensitivity to status originates from socio- cultural norms which underpins hierarchical social relationships.

Study of hardening and structure of maraging powder steel grade PS-H18K9M5TR (18%Ni+9%Co+5%Mo+1%Ti+1%Re+66%Fe)
Authors: Aghbalyan Suren , Simonyan Vigen
Published: February 2023

Relevance. High-strength steels are increasingly in demand in modern industry for various applications. Maraging steels are the primary material in the manufacture of most aircraft parts as well as machine-building components. This type is low-carbon and is rich in nickel, which forms martensite when cooled as well as demonstrates properties such as high hardness, wear resistance, etc. The hardening process is the main factor affecting the functional properties of maraging steel. At certain temperatures, austenite has the ability to transform into various kinds of phases. However, the shortcoming that lies in the presence of some impurities limits the established types of improvement technologies, leading to the search for innovative methods to improve the characteristics of steel without losing any of the desired properties. Good qualities appear in maraging steels mainly after treatment with a solution at a temperature of about 1000℃ and during aging at a temperature of about 490℃.

Purpose. Thus, the purpose of this research paper is to analyze the structure of maraging steel powders and study the thermal effect on its properties.

Methodology. In this paper, powder steel was pressed by spark plasma sintering technology at a pressure of 60 MPa to a powder compact and heated at a temperature of 1100℃ for 180 s at a rate of 20℃/s, after which the samples underwent phase and elemental analysis, their hardness was measured, the value of which amounted to about 60 HRC.

Results. The results of this scientific research demonstrate the presence of a variety of precipitates. The presence of impurities such as Co, Ti, and Re led to an improvement in strength due to martensitic phase transformation and precipitation hardening, as well as slowed down the diffusion process.

Conclusions. In addition, tasks for further research on the issue of manufacturing maraging steels by the additive manufacturing method were identified. This technology enables obtaining strong maraging steels based on a powder mixture with the required characteristics
How to reduce pedestrian fatalities: a case-by-case study to evaluate the potential of vehicle and road infrastructure interventions
Authors: Stigson Helena , Klingegård Maria , Kullgren Anders
Published: February 2023

In line with the UN’s global goals on sustainability several initiatives are promoting walking. However, if effective interventions are not implemented an increased number of pedestrians will lead to more road casualties. It is important to take appropriate decisions on interventions to reach Vision Zero adopted by the Swedish Government. This study describes the characteristics of fatal crashes with pedestrians on Swedish roads and investigates the potential of different vehicle and road infrastructure interventions to save lives. The Swedish Transport Administration (STA) in-depth database of fatal crashes was used for a case-by-case investigation. Out of the 226 fatally injured pedestrians during 2011–2016 in Sweden the most common accident scenario was a vehicle hitting a pedestrian while crossing the road. Most crashes occurred in darkness on rural roads (63%), but for urban areas the majority (53%) occurred in daylight. In general, interventions related to vehicle speed were found to address a larger proportion of the studied pedestrian fatalities on urban roads compared to on rural roads, while separated pedestrian paths outside the carriageway were found to address a larger proportion on rural roads compared to on urban roads. The intervention with the largest total potential was pedestrian crossings with speed calming measures for the motor vehicles, which had the potential to address 36% of the identified fatalities. A reduced speed limit in combination with speed calming interventions had the potential to prevent 29% of the studied fatalities while separate pedestrian paths outside the carriageway had the potential to prevent approximately 15%. It was estimated that the vehicle safety technology with the highest potential was autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian detection for passenger cars. With this system available on all cars, 58% of the studied fatalities could potentially be prevented. Most (up to 93%) of the studied fatally injured pedestrians could potentially be saved with known vehicle safety and road infrastructural technologies. However, the analysis of the potential effect of interventions show that it will take a long time until the advanced and potentially effective vehicle safety technologies will be widely spread. This shows the importance of speeding up the implementation. A fast implementation of effective interventions in the road infrastructure is also necessary, preferably using a plan for prioritization. There are two main approaches of doing that, separating road user groups, or reducing vehicle speeds in areas with mixed rod user groups to survivable levels, which is recommended to be 30 km/h. There is a need to identify areas where most pedestrian accidents occur and then use the most effective interventions. The results of this study could be helpful in this process.

Informal settlements: A perpetual challenge?
Authors:   University of the Witwatersrand, Huchzermeyer Marie , Karam Aly ,   University of the Witwatersrand
Published: February 2023

This is an open, enlightening and useful book for scholars, activists, citizens and decision makers who consider that forced or market-driven evictions should stop and that the situation of slum dwellers must be improved, even beyond the limited Millennium Development Goals. – Professor Yves Cabannes, Development Planning Unit, University College London and Convenor, UN Advisory Group on Forced Evictions Addressing the housing problem has been one of the key concerns in post-apartheid South Africa, and the last two years have seen a major shift from the policy which was in place during the first ten years of democracy. The upgrading of informal settlements comes as a new addition to the revised housing policy, at a time when international bodies have prioritised the improvement of the lives of slum dwellers. The subject matter of this book is therefore highly topical, and is likely to be of interest to a wide audience within South Africa and elsewhere. – Professor Vanessa Watson, School of Architecture, Planning and Geomatics, University of Cape Town Everyone needs a safe place to live. Every family should have a secure home from which to pursue the adequate standard of living which, over twenty-five years ago, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights asserted was a fundamental entitlement of every man, woman and child on this planet. Over half a century later, the global community and national governments remain far short of this goal. Informal settlements have become a particular challenge. Upgrading the overall conditions for our urban poor is an urgent priority, since it is the key to the far more effective pursuit of many other of the Millennium Development Goals. I therefore commend this book as an important contribution, not just to theoretical debate, but to practical policy development and implementation, in South Africa and beyond. – The Most Reverend Njongonkulu Ndungane, Anglican Archbishop of Cape Town

Xiphocentronidae (Trichoptera: Psychomyioidea) from the Andean foothills: first species of Machairocentron and Xiphocentron described in the Peruvian Amazon
Authors: Vilarino Albane , Salles Frederico F. , Bispo Pitágoras C.
Published: February 2023

Neotropical Xiphocentronidae may have arrived in South America from Central America in the late Miocene or via the Greater Antilles land bridge during the Oligocene. This would give from 10 to 30 Mya of diversification of the family in South America. However, only 11 species were previously known from the Andean foothills. In this study, five new species are described from Peru, four of Xiphocentron (X. ashaninka sp. nov., X. harakbut sp. nov., X. matsigenka sp. nov., X. yine sp. nov.) and one of Machairocentron (M. amahuaca sp. nov.). The new species are most similar to species described from the Yungas of Argentina, and the Pacific dominion of Colombia and Venezuela. The association with species from the Pacific may suggest a species divergences prior to the major Andean uplift and the Amazon basin formation. The spine-like setae on the basal region of the inferior appendage of Xiphocentron were recognized as topologically homologous to the setal brushes on the ventral projection of Caenocentron. Furthermore, based on the morphology of male and female genitalia of Machairocentron, a mating position different from that described for Psychomyiidae is inferred.

Abstract
In presenting learning media, teachers use various interesting simulations for their students. This research aims to develop learning media through interactive simulations on parabolic motion material. Parabolic motion is a two-dimensional motion that requires accurate analysis to understand it. Pygame is a Python programming language specifically written to make games. The development procedure uses a four-D model, which consists of the defining, designing, developing, and deploying stages. The results showed that interactive simulation learning media could be used for student learning media in analyzing the factors that influence parabolic motion. This shows that the developed simulation media is feasible to use in learning. However, further development needs to be carried out to obtain more interesting and more complete simulation media.

Marta Carrillo y la conciencia femenina de la desigualdad
Authors: Amezcua Manuel
Published: February 2023

Marta Carrillo, más conocida como Marta de Jesús, fue una mujer prieguense de hidalga cuna que tras enviudar dedica el resto de su vida a la creación de hospitales y otras actividades dirigidas a los sectores socialmente menos favorecidos (pobres, mujeres y niños). En el siglo XVII, durante casi medio siglo, anduvo con su hábito de terciaria diversos lugares de Andalucía como benefactora hasta fallecer en el Hospital del Pozo Santo, por ella erigido en Sevilla para atender a mujeres impedidas. Se trata de un caso más de mujeres relevantes silenciadas por la historia. Siguiendo la estela de la hospitalidad, Marta de Jesús utilizó el marco jurídico de la Iglesia para hacer posible diversas iniciativas que contribuyeron a suplir las carencias institucionales de una sociedad que hacía depender el socorro de los pobres de la buena voluntad de benefactores privados.

Published: February 2023

Convocamos hace un año Cogitare 2022 con el propósito de profundizar en el fenómeno de “El Intercambio de Cuidados entre Culturas”, cumpliendo así una aspiración largamente acariciada. Porque el fenómeno de la multiculturalidad se ha dado siempre y generalmente se asocia a las invasiones de unos pueblos a otros, enfatizándose la pérdida de vidas, de bienes y de cultura. Pero también ha ocurrido el fenómeno del mestizaje, que ha dado lugar a nuevos grupos sociales con renovadas formas de convivencia. En el caso de la salud, interesa conocer los intercambios que se producen entre los saberes aborígenes y el conocimiento proveniente de la ciencia, así como los préstamos y transferencias tanto en el cuidado profesional y como en el doméstico [continuar leyendo en el PDF].
Guadalupe: el aprendizaje como enfermero de los pobres
Authors: Ventosa Esquinaldo Francisco
Published: February 2023

El ponente profundiza en un periodo no demasiado conocido de la vida de Juan de Dios, como fue la estancia que realizó en el monasterio de Guadalupe en Extremadura, por consejo de su guía espiritual Juan de Ávila. Aunque tradicionalmente se ha aceptado que este viaje tuvo un marcado acento espiritual, lo cierto es que existen sobrados argumentos para entender que también lo hizo para asistir al hospital que los jerónimos tenían anexo al monasterio, hoy hospedería. Para el prof. Ventosa es plausible pensar que debió asistir a algunas enseñanzas en su famosa escuela de Medicina, una de las más reputadas desde la Edad Media.
