Published: October 2024

The article theoretically and practically analyzes the structure and content of the identification process as an important direction of social activity among modern youth. Due to the role of social groups and the characteristics of adult life, young people quickly adapt to transformational processes in society, as well as assimilate the values and cultural changes of a specific period, undergoing identi-fication processes. A comprehensive analysis of the scientific and theoretical literature on the research topic was conducted: the concept of “identification” of personality was examined in the context of philosophy, psychology, and social sciences, which became the basis for determining the features of the formation and content of identification, as well as the signs and factors influencing it.In the article, based on the opinions expressed in the works of foreign, CIS, and domestic scholars, the significance of identification in personal self-development is defined, and an attempt is made to provide a scien-tific and methodological substantiation of this concept. In the practical part of the research, empirical work was carried out. E. Shostrom’s “Self-Actualization Assessment” questionnaire was used, defining self-realization as an indicator of the personal characteristics of youth. The diagnostics involved 79 undergraduate students of the “Pedagogy and Psychology” program from Al-Farabi Kazakh National University. According to the results, a differentiation of the levels of personal characteristics of young people was conducted.

The research topic examines the performance of 12th grade students from the Nazarbayev Intel-lectual School in Semey in passing external summative exams, comparable to international AS/A-Level standards. The summative assessment system was developed in collaboration with the Cambridge As-sessment International Education Council and aims to measure the functionality of acquired knowledge and skills through a variety of tasks performed by students. The study also explores the international program for assessing educational achievements, such as PISA, among students in general education schools and Nazarbayev Intellectual Schools, focusing on mathematical and functional literacy. It was found that international exams like PISA and AS/A-Level often include visual organizers that require high-order thinking skills according to Bloom’s taxonomy. Currently, tasks corresponding to this type of international exam are being introduced in schools and universities in Kazakhstan. Therefore, innovative teachers should possess pedagogical and psychological methods and strategies. One of them is the CLIL strategy, which involves using are often accompanied by information graphics as visual organizers and constructive feedback to help students understand and solve tasks in international exams. This research not only examined various visual organizers in summative assessment but also provided constructive feedback to 11th and 12th grade students in biology and computer science. The article also carefully analyzed the analytical reports of international exams.

The use of geospatial technologies is becoming increasingly important in geography education, enabling activities such as spatial data retrieval, sampling, organised storage and transfer of necessary information. However, this process is very slow due to many obstacles that hinder the implementation of geospatial technologies in secondary education. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to analyse the current status of geospatial technologies in teaching geography in schools in Kazakhstan and to as-sess the potential of these technologies to develop students’ geospatial skills. The state of application of geospatial technologies in secondary education in Kazakhstan was determined by a survey. The survey involved 208 geography teachers from 17 regions and 3 large cities of Kazakhstan. The survey results showed that 96.2% of respondents use geospatial technologies (geographic information systems – GIS, software, mapping services, geoportals, mobile GIS applications). The most common are mobile GIS applications (69.5%) and mapping services (21.4%). It was also found that 24.1% of respondents use ArcGis and 20.7% use QGIS for GIS-based data design. Although the content of typical secondary school programmes and textbooks reflects the problem of practical application of GIS technologies, it was found that teachers face a number of obstacles in using them. Therefore, teachers would benefit from using not only GIS but also geospatial technologies in general when teaching school geography. In the future, geospatial technologies will help students to develop geospatial thinking skills due to their multifunctional capabilities.
PROBLEMS IN FORMING STUDENTS’ COMPETENCE IN TEACHING PHYSICS
Authors:   AL-FARABI KAZAKH NATIONAL UNIVERSITY, Sagatbek Amangul , Gabdullina Gulmira
Published: October 2024

In recent years, global challenges have brought about significant changes in the field of education. While some of these changes have positively impacted the learning process, others have had negative consequences. On the positive side, the introduction of innovative technologies and digital learning tools has enhanced the quality of education and improved learning outcomes. However, the negative aspects of globalization, such as increased distractions and the loss of traditional learning values, have led to a decrease in students’ motivation to study.This article aims to identify the factors that hinder the development of subject competence in phys-ics among students in the current educational landscape. To achieve the goals and objectives of the study, a survey was conducted involving 53 teachers with varying years of experience teaching physics in Kazakh-medium classes. These teachers provided valuable insights into the challenges they face in fostering subject competence among their students.The results of the survey revealed that the vast majority of teachers believe the primary obstacle to the formation of students’ competence in physics is the lack of didactic materials aligned with the updated curriculum. The absence of well-structured resources that reflect the changes in the curriculum has made it difficult for teachers to effectively engage students and reinforce key concepts in physics. Furthermore, the study found that the inadequate provision of teaching aids, particularly in remote rural areas, further exacerbates the issue. Many schools in these areas lack the necessary equipment and re-sources to provide students with hands-on learning experiences.In addition to material challenges, the survey highlighted the decline in students’ motivation to acquire knowledge. This drop in motivation is attributed to several factors, including the increasing influence of digital distractions and a growing disconnect between students’ daily lives and academic learning. The lack of motivation, combined with the scarcity of modern educational tools and resources, poses a significant barrier to the effective teaching of physics.In conclusion, the study underscores the urgent need to address these challenges in order to improve the teaching of physics and foster better student competence in the subject. This will require not only updating didactic materials to align with new curricula but also ensuring that all schools, especially those in rural areas, are equipped with the necessary teaching aids. Additionally, strategies to enhance student motivation and engagement must be prioritized to create a more conducive learning environment.

Published: October 2024

Employee engagement is an important issue that is the main concern of the organization's leaders in managing its employees. The changing characteristics of the employee generation are becoming a specific challenge for human resource management. Employees who are engaged with their work will exert all their abilities, efforts, and thoughts and significantly contribute, where the engagement and personal characteristics possessed by employees in carrying out their work can directly impact their performance. This study aimed to analyze employee engagement's effect on employee performance by moderating the generational characteristics of private agency employees in the City of Padang, West Sumatra. Data was collected through questionnaires distributed to 100 employee respondents working in private institutions in the city of Padang, with purposive sampling technique. Then, the data is processed using the Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method. The results of this study indicate that employee engagement generational characteristics (Y and Z generation) have a positive and significant effect on employee performance. Generational characteristics (Y and Z generation) also positively and significantly impact employee engagement. Generational characteristics do not moderate the relationship between employee involvement and employee performance, but directly employee engagement and employee performance can be improved with generational characteristic variables. Organizational leaders should pay attention to employee engagement and the characteristics of the generation of employees and can make it a potential to improve employee performance.
Introducing Copula Functions to Estimate the Reliability of Dependent Mechanical Systems
Authors: Ramadhani Adhitya Ryan , Pranowo Waskito
Published: October 2024

This paper addresses the challenge of assessing the reliability of complex mechanical systems where components are inherently correlated in their failure modes. Traditionally, the assumption of independence among these components has been employed, but it often fails to capture the real-world complexities. To overcome this limitation, copula functions are introduced as a robust methodology for modeling the dependent relationships between correlated variables within mechanical systems. This paper aims to demonstrate the utility of copulas in estimating system reliability while accounting for these dependencies. The results reveal that the Clayton copula emerges as the most suitable model for representing dependence in such systems. Importantly, the reliability estimates obtained through copula-based methods not only reflect the complex interdependencies accurately but also align with the principles of the boundary theory of reliability. This research underscores the potential of copula-based reliability estimation as a valuable alternative, offering a more comprehensive and precise assessment of reliability in complex mechanical systems and holding significant promise for practical engineering applications. This framework allows the consideration of dependence among the observed variables that is usually overlooked in engineering practice.

Sektor pariwisata tidak dapat dipungkiri memberikan dampak ekonomi yang besar bagi suatu wilayah. Salah satu aktivitas para wisatawan adalah berbelanja, sehingga kehadiran wisatawan dapat menimbulkan pangsa pasar tambahan pada suatu ritel. Oleh karena itu peritel perlu menangkap peluang ini dengan melakukan strategi yang sesuai dengan profil pengunjungnya baik itu pengunjung lokal maupun wisatawan. Penelitian pada artikel ini mengusulkan strategi suatu ritel dengan melakukan analisis profil pengunjung lokal maupun wisatawan, dimana data transaksi dari  Point of Sales (POS) diambil untuk mengklasifikasikan pengunjung berdasarkan jarak domisili dengan peritel. Selanjutnya dilakukan uji hipotesis untuk memahami perbedaan pola pembelian antara pengunjung lokal dan wisatawan dan juga teknik K-means clustering untuk membagi pengunjung menjadi kelompok-kelompok berdasarkan jarak, usia, dan nilai pembelian. Interpretasi hasil clustering membantu mengidentifikasi pola pembelian pada masing-masing kelompok, sehingga peritel dapat menyesuaikan strategi pemasaran dan promosi sesuai dengan profil pelanggan  Melalui analisis clustering dari contoh studi kasus di salah satu peritel yang ada di Yogyakarta, Indonesia, ditemukan 3 kelompok utama pelanggan: tidak aktif, aktif, dan pelanggan dari luar pulau. Prioritas peritel adalah memfokuskan upaya pada kelompok aktif, terutama kluster 4, dengan member aktif dan nilai transaksi tinggi. Kluster 6 dan 9 juga perlu menjadi target untuk meningkatkan probabilitas menjadi kluster 4. Kluster 1 dapat diabaikan dalam upaya pemasaran. Ritel harus menyesuaikan strategi untuk kluster 3 berdasarkan waktu kunjungan mereka.

Published: October 2024

Darah merupakan salah satu komponen penting bagi tubuh dan berperan dalam kelangsungan hidup manusia. Bank darah rumah sakit (BDRS) bertanggung jawab atas ketersediaan dan keamanan darah di suatu wilayah tertentu. Risiko-risiko yang terjadi pada rantai pasok darah di BDRS perlu mendapatkan perhatian penuh khususnya apabila terjadi wabah atau bencana agar aktivitas dan arus informasi, produk, dan uang dapat berjalan dengan lancar. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah membuat desain mitigasi risiko rantai pasok darah. Penelitian ini menggunakan studi kasus pada sebuah BDRS di Kota Bandung dan produk yang diamati adalah sel darah merah kemasan. Pendekatan baru yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini dimulai dengan pengumpulan mengenai risiko-risiko yang dapat terjadi dengan mendefinisikan dan mengklasifikasikan dalam model supply chain operation reference (SCOR). Setelah itu dilakukan penyebaran kuesioner sebagai input untuk menghitung bobot menggunakan analytical hierarchy process (AHP). Langkah berikutnya adalah mencari akar penyebab risiko menggunakan fault tree analysis (FTA) dan melakukan analisis untuk mencari penyebab risiko yang paling berpengaruh menggunakan failure mode effect and analysis (FMEA). Langkah akhir adalah merancang mitigasi risiko rantai pasok darah. Melalui penelitian ini diharapkan BDRS di suatu wilayah dapat mengetahui risiko yang perlu mendapatkan prioritas penanganan dan juga strategi yang dapat dilakukan agar risiko minimum. Berdasarkan hasil AHP, risiko yang memiliki bobot tertinggi sebesar 0,173 adalah tidak tersedianya stok darah di Palang Merah Indonesia (PMI) yang disebabkan oleh berkurangnya pendonor. Penyebab risiko ini dapat diatasi dengan menambahkan kegiatan donor darah di instansi dan BDRS. Pendekatan baru yang digunakan dalam penelitian dapat memetakan risiko rantai pasok darah lebih rinci.

Published: October 2024

Post-partum depression (PPD) is a post-natal disorder that not only impacts the mental health of the mother but also has long-term effects on the development and well-being of the child and family. PPD is a preventable disorder, starting from interventions at primary health care facilities. As one of the developing countries with a PPD incidence of 22% per 100,000 births, PPD is considered an urgent public health issue in Indonesia. In practice, evaluation, and improvement of services at primary health care facilities are needed. This study aims to identify and adapt international intervention strategies to reduce post-partum depression prevalence in Indonesian primary health care. A scoping review analysis method was used, involving previous studies on activities from pregnancy to post-partum that can prevent and reduce post-partum depression. The reviewed articles employed Randomized Controlled Trials or Randomized Clinical Trials (RCT) methods with specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were collected from relevant sources, and a synthesis was conducted on 16 articles that met the inclusion criteria. The results show that direct psychological support activities (through health professionals or groups) and indirect support using digital platforms and applications are effective in reducing depression. Strategies such as digital technology, direct support programs, physical therapy, pharmacological therapy, community involvement, and strengthening health services, particularly post-partum psychological counseling, are recommended to enhance prevention. This research supports the expansion of evidence-based strategies that can be implemented in primary healthcare facilities to address post-partum depression.

Extensive aeration is required for constructed wetlands (CWs) since dissolved oxygen is essential in nutrients and pathogen removal. On the other hand, plants typically used in CWs can release oxygen into the system, lowering the need for external aeration. Hence, this study tried to uncover the oxygenation rate of three species of plants in the CWs system with limited oxygen and their capability to treat wastewater. Canna sp., Heliconia sp.,and Typha sp. were used and compared to uptake nutrients and reduce coliform numbers in domestic wastewater using sub-surface CWs in low levels of initial oxygen. In the meantime, oxygen release from the plant root was monitored in real-time using an IoT-based module. On the detention time of 24 hours, CWs planted with Typha sp. were able to reduce 61% NH4+ and 71% PO43−.The system was also able to remove coliform with a magnitude of 1.39 log units. In addition, Typha sp. was observed to generate a higher oxygenation rate to the CWs system compared to the other two plants at 0.175%/h, on average. These observations suggested that Typha sp. had the best prospect to be used in a sub-surface CWs system with the least external aeration needed.

Based on the analysis of previously unexplored archival documents, the state of physical education and mass sports work in higher educational institutions of the Crimea in the mid 30s of the 20th century are considered. Research has established that the departments of physical and military training in Crimean higher educational institutions were opened in 1932. During the period from 1933 to 1935, there was an intensive development of physical culture and mass sports work in Crimean higher educational institutions in the form of full coverage of the contingent of students with compulsory academic physical education classes, the creation of physical education collectives at institutions, the improvement of their sports base, the opening of student sections on sports and the establishment of intra-university competitions. The most important aspect of the physical education work of higher educational institutions was the involvement of students and teachers in passing the standards for the badge «Ready for work and defense of the USSR». The Supreme Council of Physical Culture of Crimea took an active part in the activities of Crimean higher educational institutions to improve physical education, performing coordinating, organizational and supervisory functions.

After the de-centralisation and collapse of the Soviet Union, the aftermath brought chaos, and the major challenge was the manifestation of serious conflict on ethnic lines. The emergence of the Russian Federation was not peaceful, and violence remained a core character in the making of the Russian Federation in the aftermath of Post Soviet Russia. The series of issues brought major ramifications of newly formed states carved out from the large Society federation as an independent entity. The collapse of the Soviet federation created fifteen independent states amidst ethnic tension across the federation. The outcome was chaos, political disintegration and struggle for autonomy in the making of power transition.

The gig economy has become a prominent topic in the 21st century, according to an independent review of workers' emerging era. There are many different types of occupations available in India's gig economy, and the sum of people working in this sector continues to rise. Gig workers face various obstacles. The psychological requirements for gig workers have slowly begun to receive prominence.  Limited study exists on psychological capital among gig workers in India. This study intended to test a "Psychological Capital Questionnaire (PCQ)" for freelance employees. The 24-item PCQ measured "self-efficacy, optimism, hope, and resilience. PsyCap can help individuals behave safely, reduce job expectations, and improve safety leadership. We used survey methods to get the data, with 149 samples participating as respondents. The study found that the PCQ dimension in India has strong psychometric qualities, making it a suitable tool for assessing psychological capital in Indian gig employees.

Tarihi merkezler, kentlerin fiziksel, sosyokültürel ve ekonomik alanda özgün değerlerini içeren oluşumlardır. Şehirlerin stratejik gelişimi doğrultusunda kent kimliğine katkıları nedeniyle büyük önem taşırlar. Tarihi kentler yalnızca miras yoluyla kentlerin kimliklerini oluşturmakla kalmaz, aynı zamanda içerdikleri turizm ve pazarlama potansiyeliyle birlikte kentler için önemli bir ekonomik kaynak olarak görülürler. Çalışmada, tarihi kentlerin küreselleşme etkisiyle birlikte varoluş anlamlarını kaybetme tehlikesine ve bu dönüşüm sürecinin etkilerinin engellenmesi yolundaki sorgulamalara odaklanılmıştır. Tarihi çevrede üretim ilişkilerindeki değişimin mekana yansımaları incelenmiş ve kentlerin sürdürülebilirliğinin sağlanması fikrine tezat oluşturan tüketim odaklı kullanımın farklı boyutları değerlendirilmiştir. Tarihi kentlerin küreselleşme etkisindeki kaçınılmaz dönüşümü kabul edilerek, bu dönüşümün yaratıcı ve sürdürülebilir şekilde kontrolünün sağlanabilmesi için gereken temel yaklaşımlar ortaya konulmaya çalışılmıştır. Bu bağlamda çalışma, tarihi kentlerde üretim ve tüketim ilişkilerindeki değişimlerin koruma ve sürdürülebilirlik alanındaki yansımalarını ortaya koymaktadır.
Environmental Sustainability Assessment of Cold Storage Panel Production
Authors: Yılmaz Emrah
Published: October 2024

Today's ever-increasing environmental sustainability concerns have led to a major shift in construction sites and industrial sectors. In this context, the choice of construction materials for important structures such as cold storages plays an important role in terms of both environmental impacts and energy efficiency. The aim of this study is to evaluate the environmental loads of cold storage panels with thicknesses of 80 mm, 100 mm, 120 mm, 150 mm, 180 mm and 200 mm. In order to reveal the production inputs that cause these loads, the environmental effects were examined specifically for the 100 mm thick cold storage panel. Environmental impacts were analyzed using the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) method in accordance with the ISO 14040/44 methodology as a system boundary "cradle to gate". This study focused on three different environmental impact categories of cold storage panels produced in Türkiye: global warming potential (GWP), cumulative energy demand (CED) and water footprint. In the evaluation of environmental impacts, production inventory information obtained from the panel manufacturer was used. For analyses, Simapro v. 8.5 LCA software was used. Analysis results show that the use of galvanized sheet metal in cold storage panel production is a hot spot in terms of global warming effect. It has been determined that the largest share in the water footprint belongs to polyurethane used as insulation material. Additionally, according to the CED, non-renewable fossil and non-renewable nuclear were determined to be the most affected categories, and the use of galvanized sheet metal and polyurethane were determined to be the most important hot spots in terms of non-renewable and renewable resources. To help improve the environmental performance of the cold storage panel, it is recommended to use bio-based and less environmentally impactful raw materials in production and to measure their environmental impact on a life cycle basis from cradle to grave.
