The instructional resources employed in the educational process at SMP Negeri 21 Palu consisted of teacher’s handbooks and students’ books. Nevertheless, the efficacy of the learning process has been lacking. The students’ learning outcomes were found to be low, particularly in the field of Science, as indicated by the researchers’ observations. The results revealed that the Minimum Completeness Criteria (MCC) for Science was 65. Approximately 55% of the pupils in the class attained standard scores. The utilization of students’ textbooks necessitated the provision of explanations and a teacher’s guide. However, due to time constraints, the students’ learning process was hindered, resulting in instructors being unable to offer optimal explanations and guidance to the students. Therefore, it encompasses the development of novel instructional resources that learners may effectively utilize. One of the available options for students to utilize is the renewal of modules. Science modules have the potential to foster home-based learning among students due to the inclusion of supplementary resources, such as student guides, that facilitate the study of the module content.

Human beings are religious by nature. In the discussion on African traditional spirituality, it provides the proofs on how Africans were and are notoriously religious even before the advent of Christianity. This article provides an overview of the influence of African traditional spirituality on Christian Practices in Africa. It is noted in this article that African traditional spirituality is a diverse and complex set of beliefs and practices that reflect the cultural and spiritual beliefs of the people of Africa. It encompasses a wide range of practices, including ancestor veneration, divination, healing practices, music and dance, and community building. Christianity was introduced to Africa in the 1st century AD, but it was not until the arrival of European colonizers in the 16th century that Christianity began to spread more widely throughout Africa. Today, Christianity is one of the most widespread religions in Africa, with over 541 million adherents on the continent. Christianity in Africa is diverse and complex, encompassing a range of denominations, including Catholicism, Protestantism, and various indigenous African churches. This article explores the ways in which African spirituality has influenced Christianity in Africa, and how this has shaped the religious and cultural landscape of the continent.
CONCEPT IVANUSHKA-DURACHOK: VALUE AND DYNAMIC ASPECT
Authors: Glazkova Svetlana
Published: September 2023

In the article, the concept Ivanushka-durachok is considered as a national precedent name. The national-cultural significance of the concept is proved based on the opinion of predecessors. The deformations of the axiological paradigm of young Russian speakers are exemplified by this concept, modifications in its existence are fixed overtime. It is argued that the change in the semantics of the concept Ivanushka-durachok is explained by the development of the linguistic consciousness of native speakers over the past 40 years. In the course of the research, the psycholinguistic methods and the methods of corpus linguistics were used. The dynamics of the evaluative value of the precedent concept Ivanushka-durachok is indicated. It is concluded that the axiological and semantic potential of the concept Ivanushka-durachok and its name has been deformed. Its assessment vector in the linguistic consciousness of the student changed from positive to slightly negative. It was found that most of the preschoolers and some schoolchildren do not know the hero at all, do not have any associations with him, poorly represent his character traits, do not remember the fairy tales in which the character participates, do not reproduce the plot collisions associated with the hero, do not have a complete (and some even partial) understanding of the actions and characteristics of the hero and his antipodes, his environment. This is evidenced by the results of an associative experiment, according to which the hero is still recognizable as a fairy tale and folklore character inscribed in the schoolchild’s world picture. However, he is not attributed as invincible, disinterested, kind, trusting in the will of God, savvy, fearless, generous, highly moral. The hero is perceived primarily as intellectually limited, unkempt and unengaging. According to schoolchildren, the character is not suitable for personal friendship. The author considers the simplification and transformation of Ivanushka-durachok’s assessment to be a mutation of the cultural code. The change of axiological emphasis exemplified by Ivanushka-durachok is assessed as a diffusion of national-cultural idiosyncrasy, its unjustified debasement. The results of the analysis can help to correct the work with fairy-tale and folklore texts in kindergartens and elementary schools, be used in the teaching methods of literary reading.
WORD-FORMATION MODELS WITH DIMINUTIVES IN THE BASIC LEVEL TRAINING COURSE OF RUSSIAN AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE
Authors: Chernyavskaya Yanina
Published: September 2023

This work offers a systematic approach to the study of word-formation models by foreigners who are beginning to learn Russian, in particular, the formation of words with diminutive suffixes. Russian diminutives need to be introduced into the course already at the basic level due to the great popularity and high frequency of the use of words with such suffixes among native Russian language speakers. Thanks to the knowledge of the basic word-formation models, a wide layer of vocabulary opens up to foreign students. We propose comprehensive didactic material for mastering words with diminutives and consolidating information based on the traditional and communicative method. The system of tasks includes exercises for both the study of formal units and their functioning in a written or oral text and communicative orientation tasks for the formation of the skill of a corresponding speech activity. We conclude that the ability to see in a word the generating basis and affixes is also an important condition for further effective understanding of special vocabulary and texts.
PRAGMATIC ANALYSIS OF MODALIZED CONSTRUCTIONS IN DIFFERENT STRUCTURAL LANGUAGES
Authors: Oshanova Ekaterina
Published: September 2023

The article deals with the question of pragmatic identity of modalized constructions in the Russian, German and Udmurt languages. The article presents the utterances included in the speech act in interaction with modal means, which participate in the expression of a real-ontological situation. The aim is to describe the functional and pragmatic properties of Russian, German and Udmurt modalized utterances. Modalized constructions are formed with the help of special modal means, which include modal verbs and modal particles. It is noted that modal linguistic means in different-structured particle languages are characterized by a pragmatic orientation and reveal special principles of national language functioning. The pragmatic properties of modal particles appear in interaction with context and situation. It should be concluded that modalized constructions express communicative and pragmatic meanings with different communicative purports, depending on the contextual factors of the denoted reality, as well as due to the characteristic features of the subjective-modal shades of modal means.
ON THE QUESTION OF THE SEMANTICS OF RUSSIAN NOMINAL
SUBSTANTIVE PHRASES AND THE EXPRESSION
OF THEIR CORRELATES IN THE PERSIAN LANGUAGE
Authors: Estiri Majid , Siyami Eidlak Khalida
Published: September 2023

Phrases consist of various parts in the Persian and Russian languages. The article presents semantics of Russian substantive prepositional phrases with a dependent noun, which are expressed in Persian by Ezāfe phrases, with the “noun + adjective” structure. The empirical and factual basis of the study was the Russian-Persian dictionaries by G. A. Voskanyan, I. K. Ovchinnikova, S. D. Klevtsova and the Persian dictionary “Sokhan”, edited by H. Anvari. The scientific novelty of the work is the fact that for the first time in Russian-Persian comparative linguistics, Russian nominal phrases coinciding with the Ezāfe phrases “noun + adjective” are distinguished. Also novel is the semantic analysis of the identified phrases and their correlates in the Persian language. The results of the study can be used as additional material by teachers and students studying Russian as a foreign language in universities of Iran. In addition, this work can be a useful scientifically grounded source for Persian and Russian translators.

Published: September 2023

Sanat insanı, modern ve post modern süreçlere ilerlediği her evrede, sanatta farklılık yaratma girişimlerinde bulunmuştur. Bu bağlamda, günümüze kadar birbirinden farklı veya yakın birçok sanat üslupları oluşmuştur. Temayı farklı ya da daha görüntüsel bir kurguyla yansıtmaya çalışma düşüncesinden olsa gerek, ortaya çıkan bu üsluplardan birisi de “Gösteri Sanatı” diğer ismiyle “Performans Sanatı” olmuştur. Farklılığı yaratmada sınır tanımayan bu sanat üslubunda aşırılığa kaçan görüntüleriyle sanatçılar izleyenleriyle buluşmaktadır. Bu makalede belirli sanatçıların özellikle kanlı görüntüleri, çarmıh sahneleri bilinçli olarak seçilmiştir. Kurban ritüelleri de bunların en çarpıcı örneklerini oluşturmaktadır. Konularla ilgili yapılan araştırmalarda, karşımıza özellikle Viyana Aksiyonistleri ve özellikle sanatçı Hermann Nitsch çıkmıştır. Elbette, Gösteri Sanatı ile ilgili pek çok makale ya da tez çalışmaları yapılmıştır ancak biz bu çalışmaya diğerlerinden biraz daha farklı bir bakış açısıyla yaklaşmaya çalışarak, bu gösterileri İsa’nın ölümü yani Hristiyanlık dini ile bağdaştırmaya gayret ettik.

Published: September 2023

This study investigated the relationship between poverty and human trafficking in Awka South Local Government Area of Anambra State. The study objective was to ascertain how poverty influences human trafficking in Awka south Local Government Area of Anambra State. In Nigeria, high poverty rate is deemed to be one of the drivers of human trafficking. High level of poverty in the country cause families to give away their children to foster parents who sometimes sell these children to traffickers. Traffickers usually promise parents and desperate youths easy financial freedom in other cities or countries, and oftentimes they discover that they have fallen into deception trap and tend to face harsh conditions in foreign lands which they have to endure if they must survive. The theoretical thrust of this study is the Marxian theory associated with the German Philosopher Karl Marx (1818 – 1883). The Marxian theory draws attention to the polarisation of society into upper and lower classes and how this leads to class struggle. The upper class who also forms the ruling class lords it over the lower class made up of the ordinary people by appropriating more than their fair share of the common wealth thereby condemning a greater majority of the people to poverty. Cross – sectional survey research design was adopted for the study. This is a design in which information is collected from only a fraction of the population known as a sample selected in such a way as to represent the whole population. The instrument of data collection was the questionnaire used to collect quantitative data. Multi – stage sampling procedure comprising of simple random and systematic sampling techniques was used to select two hundred and four (204) respondents for the study. Data generated through the questionnaires was analysed using frequency tables and simple percentages while the hypothesis that was formulated for the study was tested using the Chi-square () test statistic. The study found that poverty encourages human trafficking in Awka south Local Government Area of Anambra State. Based on this finding, the study recommends amongst others that government should empower families in Awka south Local Government Area to have access to regular sources of income.

Published: September 2023

Physical training and nutrition are inseparable, given their shared effects on health, fitness, and performance outcome. This relationship makes gym trainers a de facto player in nutritional counseling despite evidence of their low proficiency on the subject. In developed countries, gym trainers are highly regulated, and their roles, particularly in dietary practice, are dictated by the scope of their training. In Kenya (a developing country), gym trainers are hardly regulated, and their nutrition knowledge is unknown and undocumented, yet anecdotal evidence shows they are practicing it. Therefore, the overall aim of the study was to evaluate the general and sports nutrition knowledge of Gym instructors in Kenya. An invitation to participate in a survey was done with gym instructors participating in fitness course at the University of Nairobi. Twenty gym instructors (10 males and 10 females) nutritional knowledge was assessed using Fuber Robert’s general and sports nutrition knowledge questionnaires. The general and sports nutrition knowledge of Nairobi gym instructors was found to be inadequate 36.8% (95% CI: 7.4, 66.6), but they showed moderate knowledge in proteins (53.3%; 10.7) and fats (48.5%; 9.7). Poor sporting performance and supplementation knowledge were recorded (32.1%; 6.4). Nairobi female gym instructors demonstrated a consistently low general and sports nutrition knowledge in all the nutrition domains compared to their male counterparts, 33.6% (95% CI: 0.0, 75.1) and 39.6% (95% CI: 0.0, 82.5), respectively. Conscious efforts, including availing nutrition education resources, are needed to enhance the nutritional knowledge of Kenya gym instructors.

Authors: Aiyedogbon Prof. J. O. , Obumneke Ezie , Bot Ropheka E.
Published: September 2023

Manufacturing sector output has been experiencing dwindling output over the years, despite the efforts by the monetary authorities. Manufacturing sector in any economy is seen as one of the drivers of industrialization and economic development, as such government policies affect their performance. Hence, this paper examined the asymmetric effect of monetary policy tools on Nigeria’s manufacturing sector output between 1986 and 2022. Non-linear Autoregressive Distributed Lag (NARDL) method was adopted in carrying out empirical analysis. Cointegration using bounds test revealed the variables have long-run relationship. Findings from the paper revealed that positive effect of private sector credit has a corresponding positive impact on manufacturing sector output. While the negative effect led to a decrease in the output. Further findings showed that positive effect of monetary policy rate led to an increase in manufacturing sector output; while the negative effect led to a decrease in manufacturing sector output. Both variables were found to have statistically insignificant relationship with manufacturing sector output in Nigeria during the period covered. Based on these findings, the monetary authorities are encouraged to continue with improving programmes or schemes that will lead to more funding for the manufacturing; and are encouraged to take into account monetary policy that captures the economic reality on the ground.

Published: September 2023

The effectiveness of school systems and learners’ academic performance in Kenya relies heavily on head teachers’ instructional leadership practices and teachers’ work performance, raising the need for suitable instructional leadership practices to achieve the desired quality of education outlined in Vision 2030 and the fourth Sustainable Development Goal. However, recent reports highlight concerns about teachers’ work performance, especially regarding their classroom pedagogical knowledge, skills, and practices. The purpose of the study was to assess the influence of provision of professional development opportunities by the head teachers on teachers’ work performance in public primary schools in Nakuru County, Kenya. Hallinger and Murphy’s (1985) Model of Instructional Leadership and Campbell et al.’s (1993) Theory of Job Performance informed the study. The study employed a mixed methods approach with the convergent parallel design, collecting both quantitative and qualitative data from 466 respondents in 68 primary schools. The sample included 60 pupils, 329 teachers, 68 head teachers, and 9 Quality Assurance and Standards Officers (QASOs). Data were gathered through questionnaires, interviews, focus group discussions, and document analysis. Statistical analyses in SPSS version 25 included descriptive statistics, percentages, Spearman rank correlation, and regression analysis. The results show that the provision of professional development by head teachers had no significant influence on teachers’ work performance in public primary schools in Nakuru County.The study concluded that teachers’ work performance was critical for the overall school outcomes. The study recommends that head teachers should implement internal professional development programs, considering key procedures like identifying teachers’ training needs for instructional improvement, encouraging in-service training, providing guidance on performance gaps, organizing peer coaching, and promoting further studies for career advancement.

A total of 30 women (35.8 ± 1.4 years) volunteered for this study. The participants were randomly divided into EMS (n:15) and Zumba (n:15) groups. Then, for a total of 6 weeks, the EMS group performed EMS exercise two days a week, and the Zumba group performed Zumba exercise two days a week. The body composition, blood pressure, maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max), strength performance and determined blood parameters of the participants were evaluated at the beginning and end of the study. Each exercise session was followed by heart rate monitoring system in order to evaluate the participants' maximal, average heart rate and total calories burned. Moreover, rate of perceived exertion was recorded at the end of each exercise with the Borg scale. When intergroup comparison performed, a statistically significant difference was found in favor of the Zumba group in the values of body weight, body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage and. VO2max There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in strength and blood lipid parameters. It can be said that both EMS and zumba practices have positive effects on body composition, strength and blood lipid levels when the duration of each session and the total duration of the exercises as well as intra-group changes are evaluated.
SCDM eSource Playbook 4: A regulatory view
Authors: King Linda , Rocca Mitra
Published: September 2023

Clinical research is in the midst of a digital transformation, with the emergence of eSource data promising to accelerate drug development timelines, enhance patient centricity, and unlock previously unseen insights.  While much has been written on the rationale for eSource approaches, practical advice on their implementation has been less widely available.  As the world's leading advocate for the discipline of clinical data management, the Society for Clinical Data Management (SCDM) is in a unique position to fill this knowledge gap. To achieve this aim, the group has produced a series of podcasts in which leading experts from across the clinical research ecosystem share their case studies and practical advice on moving eSource from theory into practice.  We then distilled their learnings into four playbooks, each from the standpoint of one of the main stakeholder groups: CROs and vendors, pharma, regulators and academia/sites.  This paper focuses on a regulatory perspective.

DO OFF-CAMPUS COURSES POSSESS A LEVEL OF QUALITY COMPARABLE TO THAT OF ON-CAMPUS COURSES?
Authors: Miller Greg , Pilcher Carol L.
Published: September 2023

The purpose of this study was to describe and compare perceptions of the quality of on-campus and off-campus courses held by students enrolled in courses offered through the College of Agriculture Off-Campus Professional Agriculture Degree Programs @= 173) and faculty members with teaching responsibilities or with teaching experience in the same college of agriculture (N=262). Faculty and students provided a positive assessment of the overall quality of both on- and off-campus courses. They also provided a positive assessment of both on- and off-campus courses on the manufacturing-based user-based value-based and transcendent-based quality factors. Even so, both students and faculty perceived off-campus courses to be of lower quality than on-campus courses with the greatest difference on the transcendent quality factor. It was recommended that the focus for improving the quality of off-campus courses be on the manufacturing-based factor. When the production and delivery processes are handled correctly and aligned to achieve outcomes based on student needs, off-campus courses will be recognized for innate excellence (transcendent quality). If quality off-campus courses in agriculture are to be offered, special attention must be given to improving the production, quality control, and distribution systems for courses and course materials.

Lending and borrowing in this millennial era is not limited to face-to-face. The emergence of FinTech makes it easy for people to transact with various products, one of which is online credit. With online credit, people can shop now and pay later with the PayLater feature. The PayLater feature is widely used by various platforms, one of which is Gojek with its GoPayLater. The research method used is library research, which is a research approach that uses published sources of information such as books, journal articles, reports and other documents as the main basis for collecting data and analyzing it. This research is also called secondary data research. In the Gojek application, it imposes excessive interest or additional fees in loan transactions because additional costs exceed the principles of justice and without any valid justification, this can be considered as usury which is contrary to Islamic law
Piecewise Reconstruction of 3D Euler Spirals From Planar Polygonal Curves
Authors: Fakih Ali , Cordier Frederic , Maillot Yvan
Published: September 2023

In this article, we propose a method for reconstructing approximate piecewise 3D Euler spirals from planar polygonal curves. The method computes the 3D coordinates of approximate Euler spiral such that its orthogonal projection onto the 2D plane is the closest possible to the input curve. To achieve this, a dataset is created, comprising Euler spiral segments and their orthogonal projections. Given an input curve, it is sampled and split into segments. Each segment is matched with the closest Euler spiral segments from the dataset, forming a pool of candidates. The optimal set of connected Euler spiral segments is then selected to reconstruct the approximate piecewise 3D Euler spiral. The selection prioritizes smoothness continuity at connecting points while minimizing the distance between the orthogonal projection and the input curve. We evaluate our method against synthetic 3D Euler spirals by applying our reconstruction to the orthogonal projection of the synthetic Euler spirals.
