تسعى هذه الدراسة إلى عرض آراء القاضي عبد الجبار (ت:1025/415) المتعلقة بعلم اللغة، وتأخذ نموذجاً الكلام البشري، ومسألة الكلام بشكل عام أخذت حيزاً كبيراً من الدرس في المذهب المعتزلي، وكان أفضل من تكلم في موضوع الكلام وكل ما يتعلق به هو القاضي عبد الجبار، تكلم القاضي عن تعريف الكلام فهو الحروف التي ينظمها الإنسان، وتحدث عن مقوماته فهو يحتاج إلى محل كالفم أو اللسان، وتكلم عن قضايا باتت من صميم علم اللغة الحديث كالكلام والزمن أو الإفادة في الكلام بمعنى هل يشترط في الكلام أن يكون مفيداً حتى يسمى كلاماً؟. والكلام آني بمعنى أنه متى ما صدر من المتكلم لا يقبل التأجيل ولا طاقة للمتلقي عن أن يهمل إدراكه، وتأخر إدراكنا في بعض الحالات يرجع إلى عوارض خارجة عن ذات الكلام نفسه، ويحاول القاضي جاهداً أن يميز الكلام البشري ويحدد صفاته ومقوماته، حتى يظهر الفرق بينه وبين كلام الله عز وجل، فالكلام البشري فعل الإنسان وحدوثه بسبب اعتماد اللسان، والكلام يحتاج في قيامه إلى محل يقوم به، فهو ليس جسم ولا جوهر، ولقد بحث القاضي الكثير من القضايا المتعلقة بالكلام أو اللغة وكان سبَاقاً في كثير من المسائل التي لم يعلم عنها الغرب إلا بدخول القرن العشرين، وتظهر أهمية هذه الدراسة في أنها أولاً تأخذ أحد أهم أعلام المعتزلة، والذي رست عنده أفكار المعتزلة، ومن ثم تظهر أهمية الدراسة في إظهار الدراسات العربية المتعلقة بعلم اللغة، هذا العلم الذي ينسب بأكمله للغرب، ويظهر مدى اهتمام المسلمين بمثل هذه القضايا التي بدأ طرحها على مستوى الفكر الغربي في نهاية القرن الثامن عشر الميلادي.
İmam Maturidi'de Din Şeriat Ayrımı ve Sekülerizm
Authors: Polat Fatma
Published: June 2024

İmam Maturidi’ye göre din tevhide inanmak demektir. Şeriat ise İslam dininin itikadi, ahlaki ve ameli sahadaki aynı özün her peygambere vahiy yoluyla gönderilen fakat tarihi kültürel ve sosyal şartlara göre birbirinden farklı olan boyutlarını ifade eder. Bu yönüyle din sabittir, şeriat ise dinamiktir. Bu dinamik yapı batı toplumlarında sekülerizm kavramı ile ilişkilendirilmiş dinin sabitelerinde topyekûn bir değişim oluşturulmaya çalışılmıştır. İslam dinin yapısı zaten hayatla iç içe olduğu için bu oluşum genel manada dinin özünü etkilememektedir. Dinin bireysel ve sosyal hayattaki varlığının azalması ve dünya merkezli düşünmeyi ifade eden sekülerleşme, batılılaşma ve modernleşmenin doğal sonucu olarak ortaya çıkmaktadır. Sekülerleşme, sosyolojik ve psikolojik bir anlamı içermektedir. Sekülerleşme kavramıyla kişilerin toplumsal hayatlarında veya ferdi düşünce ve duygularında dinin etkin olma özelliğini kaybetmesi kastedilmektedir.
Bu çalışmada Din-şeriat kavramları açıklanmış, İmam Maturidi’de din-şeriat ayırımındaki hususlar ortaya konmuş bu ayırımdaki temel nokta belirlenmiştir. Aynı zamanda sekülerizm olgusu din bağlamında ele alınıp sekülerizmin etki alanları açıklanmaya çalışılmıştır. İslami sekülerleşmenin imkânı konusu irdelenip sekülerleşen dünyaya karşı dinin tutumu ortaya konulmaya çalışılmıştır.
Örtü Altı Bitkisel Üretiminin Sulama Yönetiminde Toprak Su İçeriğinin Belirlenmesi
Authors: Kaman Harun
Published: June 2024

İklim değişikliği ile birlikte sıcaklıkların artması ve su kaynaklarının azalması nedeniyle suya olan ihtiyaç da önemli ölçüde artış göstermektedir. Tarımsal üretimin artırılmasında, diğer etkenlerin yanı sıra sulamanın payının çok büyük olduğu yadsınamaz. Sulamalarda genel uygulama, sulama zamanı belirlendikten sonra, kök bölgesi su içeriğinin tarla kapasitesine gelinceye dek ıslatılmasıdır. Ancak, doğru bir sulama yönetiminin planlanmasında en temel konulardan biri toprak su içeriğinin belirlenmesi ve izlenmesidir. Bu nedenle ele alınan bu araştırmada, bitki kök bölgesi toprak su içeriğinin saptanması ve izlenmesi olanaklarının belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırma, örtü altı bitkisel üretiminin yoğun olarak yapıldığı Antalya’da, Akdeniz Üniversitesi Ziraat Fakültesi Araştırma ve Uygulama Çiftliğinde bir serada yürütülmüştür. Çalışmada, toprak su içeriğinin belirlenmesinde dolaylı bir ölçüm yöntemi olan Profil Prop PR2 metodunun kullanılabilirliği araştırılmıştır. Profil Prop PR2 yönteminin değerlendirilmesinde ise toprak su içeriği için doğrudan bir ölçüm metodu olan gravimetrik yöntem temel araç olarak kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada, toprak su içeriğinin Profil Prop PR2 yöntemiyle hızlı, pratik ve kolay bir şekilde belirlenebileceği sonucuna varılmıştır. Ancak, toprak su içeriğinin Profil Prop PR2 yöntemiyle izlenmesinin tercih edilmesi durumunda, her toprak koşulu için ayrıntılı bir şekilde ve gravimetrik yöntemle kalibrasyon çalışmasının yapılması da önerilmektedir.

Bu çalışmada nane yaprakbiti, Eucarazzia elegans (Ferrari) (Hemiptera: Aphididae)’ın Mentha arvensis, M. dumetorum, M. pulegium, M. spicata ve M. suaveolens nane çeşitlerinde bazı biyolojik özellikleri belirlenmiştir. Denemede E. elegans bireylerinden elde edilen nimfler kullanılmıştır ve tüm bireyler ölünceye kadar denemelere devam edilmiştir. Deneme sonucunda çift eşeyli yaşam çizelgesi teorisine göre analizler yapılmıştır. Ergin öncesi gelişme süresini en uzun 7,533 gün ile M. suaveolens çeşidi üzerinde, en kısa ise 5,900 gün ile M. pulegium çeşidi üzerinde tamamlamıştır. Nane yaprakbitinin net üreme gücü (R0), en yüksek M. arvensis’da yetiştirilen bireylerde 63,102 dişi/dişi olarak tespit edilmiştir. Kalıtsal üreme yeteneği (r) değeri en yüksek M. pulegium’da yetiştirilen bireylerde 0,371 dişi/dişi/gün olarak bulunmuş olup, en düşük ise M. dumetorum’da yetiştirilen bireylerde 0,252 dişi/dişi/gün olarak belirlenmiştir. Artış oranı sınırı (λ), en yüksek 1,450 gün-1 ile M. pulegium’da yetiştirilen bireylerde görülmüştür. Popülasyonun ikiye katlanma süresi (DT) değeri en uzun M. dumetorum’da yetiştirilen bireylerde 2,516 gün olarak hesaplanmıştır. Bu çalışmada M. pulegium nane çeşidi, E. elegans’a karşı diğer çeşitlere göre daha hassas bulunmuştur. Mentha dumetorum çeşidinin ise diğer çeşitlere oranla E. elegans için daha dayanıklı olduğu düşünülmektedir. Eucarazzia elegans ile yoğun bulaşık alanlarda dayanıklı olduğu belirlenen M. dumetorum nane çeşidinin yetiştirilmesini daha uygun olacağı düşünülmektedir.
Post-Medium Çağında Marcel Broodthaers’in Eserlerinde Düşünce Olarak Sanat
Authors: Şarkdemir Hakan
Published: June 2024

Modernizmin özerklik paradigmasına şüpheyle yaklaşan birçok sanatçı, sözel ve görsel sanatlar (resim, heykel, şiir vb.) arasındaki geleneksel ayrımları tartışmaya açmıştır. Özellikle kavramsal sanatçıların eserlerinde nesneler sözcüklere, sözcükler nesnelere dönüşür. Dil, bir bakıma eserin estetikleşme sürecinin mekânı olup çıkar. Tipografik unsurlara plastik bir özerklik ve nesne benzeri bir mevcudiyet kazandırıldığı görülür. Sanatçının varlık nedeninin, sanatın özünü/kökenini tanımlamak olduğunu savunan kavramsal sanatçılar gibi Marcel Broodthaers de özerklik ya da ortama özgüllük diye adlandırılabilecek modernist şemanın karşısında konumlanır. Bu bağlamda, Broodthaers’in seri işleri, “düşünce olarak sanat” eseri diye tanımlanabilecek bir kategoriye yerleşir. Sanatı sanata dair teorik düşünümün kipi olarak üretmeyi vaat eden bu tür bir anlayış söz konusu olduğunda sanat eserinin üretim sürecini tekil mecralar üzerinden okumak da güçleşir. Üstelik böyle bir durumda çağdaş sanatçı, bir ressam, bir fotoğrafçı, bir heykeltıraş olmaktan ziyade, yalnızca sanatçı gibi görünür. Başka bir deyişle sanatçı, eleştirmen, küratör ve yönetmen hepsi aynı yaratıcı kaynakta birleşir. Buna karşın, bu yaratıcı kaynağın, gösterge/meta üretim mantığı karşısındaki tavrının, diğer bir deyişle sanat piyasası içindeki tutumunun ikircikli olduğu söylenebilir. Bu sorunu aşmak için çağdaş sanatçının, sanatın metalaşması tehlikesine karşı yeni stratejiler geliştirmesi gerekmiştir. Bu bağlamda çağdaş sanatın ortam sonrası (İng. post-medium) koşullarını ilan eden Broodthaers’in eseri, tekil sanatlarının sonunu ima etmekle kalmaz, estetik ve değişim değerini üst üste bindiren mantığı da ifşa eder. Bu makalede, mevcut sanatçı şablonunun dışına çıkarak yerleşik estetik biçimleri dönüştüren Broodthaers’in düşüncesi ve hayali bir müze kurgusu içinde meta ile sanat arasındaki ilişkileri yeniden kurgulayan eserleri ele alınmıştır. Böylece, teorik düşünce ile sanat, nesne ile dil, üretim ilişkileri ile toplumsal ilişkiler arasındaki bağı sorgulayan bir sanatçıdan yola çıkarak geleceğin ileri sanatına katkı sunmak amaçlanmaktadır.

Published: June 2024

The necessity to promote multilingualism and cultural competence in educational settings has grown substantially in our contemporary globalized society. The phenomenon is referred to the translanguaging approach, and it is commonly applied in bilingual schools. This approach has been implemented in various contexts, particularly in English for Young Learners (EYL) programs. However, study on translanguaging as it applies to elementary-level bilingual education remains scarce. The issue lies in the traditional segmentation of languages in bilingual education systems, which frequently disregards the possible advantages of utilizing the complete linguistic repertoire of students. The main objective of this study is to investigate the efficacy of a translanguaging approach within a particular bilingual elementary school setting. Data will be collected via a qualitative case study method that includes student feedback, teacher interviews, and classroom observations. This research approach intends to provide valuable insights into the practical aspects and obstacles associated with the implementation of translanguaging practices. Insights from teacher interviews revealed the benefits of translanguaging in a bilingual environment. In addition to contributing to the ongoing discussion on effective language pedagogy, this study emphasizes the significance of embracing linguistic diversity in EYL.

Published: June 2024

The situation of women in a matrilineal society has intrigued many scientists. In this paper, the researchers analyze two novels by Nur Sutan Iskandar which describe the way of life in a Minangkabau village. These novels were published in the 1920s and 1930s. They illustrate the situation of women during that period. The researchers examine the perspective of women as perceived by Nur Sutan Iskandar. A structuralist approach was used to identify binary oppositions that could provide insights into the position of Minangkabau women in their community. The researchers used two ways of reading: a diachronic and a synchronic way. It has been observed that women actively participate in their society. They are involved in the decision-making process even though the men hold formal positions. Moreover, women tend to have stronger connections to village life and traditional practices, whereas men are more likely to be engaged in outmigration.

The presence of mothers in digital technology and internet access creates a complex journey. Mothers’ socioeconomic status and cultural background significantly influence mothers’ use of digital tools to empower and challenge their role in digital domain challenges. This connection of technology to motherhood not only shapes their online experience but also defines their role in society, shapes their identities, and helps change perceptions of motherhood in the digital age. The research explores the impacts of digital access within the context of mothering and recognises the challenges in culture and socio-economic contexts in the digital age. This study presents the concept and theoretical model of mothers' use of digital access. The theoretical framework is based on Matricentric Feminism and Hofstede's Theory of Cultural Dimensions. These theories will shed light on the connections between mothers and the digital environment, including how socioeconomic status affects mothers' use of digital media on their socio-economic status and culture influences the media devices that mothers from different backgrounds use, and the various forms of mediation that mothers use. These connections provide us with insights into ways in which culture and socioeconomic status mediate maternal thought in the context of digital access, emphasising the importance of establishing inclusive digital environments that empower mothers of all backgrounds.

Kayan Mentarang National Park is the largest nature conservation area on the island of Kalimantan. In supporting activities to protect and preserve wild animals, it is necessary to know their numbers and distribution. Observing wild animals often faces challenges because the characteristics of the animals themselves are shy, cryptic and elusive. It makes them difficult to find directly. Especially in TNKM, this condition is exacerbated by the topography and area size. This research aims to determine species richness, species diversity, encounter rates, abundance and activity patterns of wild animals using camera traps at SPTN I Long Bawan TNKM. The research results found 31 types of wild animals belonging to 17 families. The wild animal encounter rate value was dominated by Macaca nemestrina (ER 2,984 photos/day). The Diversity Index (H') value is classified as moderate with a value of 2.19. The wild animal that has the highest species abundance value is Macaca nemestrina (RAI 18.96%). The daily activity patterns of wild animals are classified as active at night (nocturnal) with as many as 8 species (26%), active during the day (diurnal) with as many as 14 species (45%) and active at both times (nocturnal and diurnal) as many as 9 species (29%).

Meanwhile, the demands of life are increasingly high, many parents are forgetting its primary role as educators for their children, and they are busy working outside the home to make ends meet.Consequently, the responsibility of parents to form children's character are often overlooked. In addition, parents are now more emphasized that children have to excel academically than build their character. The lack of discussion between parents and children results in a lack of communication and attention, so that some children experience a crisis of morals and Islamic values ​​that are inherent in them. So it is necessary to have an Islamic parenting forum that covers this so that we understand each other. Islamic parenting is a parenting method for children as a solution to educational methods with an approach to the character of morality and the religiosity of the Islamic religion. The principles of parenting related to character development, these principles include self-exemplary, togetherness with children in realizing moral values, democratic attitudes, openness, honesty in children, as well as unity of words and actions that give birth to trust and authority. High trust and authority will bring up children's appreciation of parents, having the impact of the emergence of self-discipline values ​​originating from the child's conscience.

Elections are one of the most important parts in the implementation of modern democracy, and Indonesia is no exception. So the election becomes a contestation of the ideas of each candidate pair to gain the sympathy of the people as voters. In this way, elections can become very sacred for the continuation and development of politics and democracy in a country in the future. The victory of candidate pair 02 Prabowo-Gibran certainly did not win in a vacuum. In fact, Joko Widodo's role is vital and has a strong influence as a determinant of the victory of candidate pair 02. In this way, the Indonesian people still seem to really like and may even still be satisfied with Jokowi's performance in the last five years of his leadership. The results of survey institutions show that the level of public satisfaction with Jokowi's performance while leading the government is quite high. So it could be that this number also represents the voters' rationality in choosing Prabowo-Gibran because Jokowi is also a supporter of the candidate pair. So Jokowi, with these data and figures, is still a strong magnet for voters to participate in making their choice. The methodology we use in this research is descriptive qualitative, using a library research approach to obtain the data and data sources we need. The findings that we got are that it is true that Jokowi was one of the determining factors in the victory of candidate pair 02 Prabowo-Gibran, besides the fact that Jokowi is Gibra's biological father.

Population aging is occurring faster globally than ever before. By 2030, the population of people aged 60 and over will increase from one billion in 2020 to 1.4 billion, and one in six people in the world will be 60 years old and over according to World Health Organization [WHO]. Facing the pressing challenge, countries are renewing their health and social systems to accommodate this demographic shift. Consequently, health literacy (HL) of older adults becomes an important navigator to maximize healthy lifestyle and access to health care services. However, studies assessing the reality of HL in older adults in a super-aged society are limited, and the factors that have influenced HL over many years remain unclear. This study aims to identify characteristics related to HL by gender and age group and factors influencing HL for older adults in Japan. Using the 47-item Japanese version of the European Health Literacy Survey Questionnaire, a cross-sectional survey was conducted recruiting adults aged 65 and older, living in an urban community in Japan from December 2019 to January 2020. Descriptive, univariate, and multiple regression analyses were used. A total of 367 participants who were members of senior clubs was analyzed in the study. This study found HL was significantly lower in the group aged 75 years and older than in the group aged 65 to 74 years. There was no significant difference in HL between men and women. Based on the results of this study, it is recommended that in order to sustain HL among the older adults in a super-aged society, an environment that promotes HL should be created by capturing characteristics such as skills in using health information media and social skills in the community by gender and age group.
Counting and Demonstrating Electron Transfer in Buswell’s Equation
Authors: Yuen Pong Kau , Lau Cheng Man Diana
Published: June 2024

Anaerobic digestion is a microorganism-mediated redox system which is chemically represented by Buswell’s equation. In the equation, quantity of methane and carbon dioxide can be counted by the elemental composition of organic matter, however there is a lack of connection between electron transfer and formations of methane and carbon dioxide. Although the mechanism of direct interspecies and mediated interspecies electron transfer in anaerobic digestion has been widely researched, the method of counting electron transfer in Buswell’s equation has not yet been explored. This article develops a method to count electron transfer of organic molecules in Buswell’s equation. Mathematical equations are established through integration of relationships among mean oxidation number of organic carbons, quantity of methane, and number of transferred electrons. With any known organic structural formula, three tasks can be achieved: (1) determine the Buswell-Ratio, (2) count Buswell-Electron, and (3) demonstrate electron transfer among organic carbons by drawing the Buswell-Electron diagram.
Open Documents And Democracy: A POLITICAL BASIS FOR OPEN DOCUMENT STANDARDS
Authors: DeNardis Laura , Tam Eric
Published: June 2024

Modern information society depends upon an enormous variety of electronic devices in order to function on a day-to-day basis. Information and communication technology (ICT) devices are able to exchange information only if they adhere to common communication protocols, technical interfaces, and information formats. ICT standards are the blueprints enabling users to access, create, and exchange information regardless of their hardware or software choices. Increasingly, governments are establishing policies to use ICT products based on standards that adhere to principles of openness and interoperability. Academic analyses of open standards policies usually address economic and technical concerns. But technological design is also political. Technologies both embody values and, once developed, have political consequences. Rationales for government procurement policies based on principles of openness and interoperability should not be viewed exclusively through an economic or a technical lens, but through the prism of the principles that provide democratic governments with their legitimacy.
