The lack of learning resources and media on nanotechnology, a new topic in the High School Merdeka curriculum, is challenging for teachers. Therefore, high school students in Indonesia still need to use interactive multimedia in learning activities to help them understand the learning material. This research aims to (1) create products in the form of interactive multimedia that meet the eligibility criteria and (2) know students' responses to interactive multimedia. ADDIE development mode was used in this research. A total of 10 students in class X SMA Pangudi Luhur Sedayu were sampled in the limited trial. The results showed that: (1) the product has the eligibility criteria with average percentage of 88,7% fulfilled very feasible criteria; fulfilled very valid criteria with an average of 88,7%, fulfilled very effective criteria on an average of 87, fulfilled very practical criteria with an average of 89%; (2) the response of students to the product is very good and gets good comments. The developed interactive multimedia can support the nanotechnology learning process in senior high schools.
The Seven Colours Festival: Young People and Civic Participation in the Arts
Authors:   Swansea University, Rogers Amanda ,   Tola Say
Published: May 2024

Based on our previous research (Rogers et al 2021) we noticed a difference between how artists think the arts relate to society, and how young people imagine this relationship. Young people wanted to see (and connected most strongly to) art works that more immediately engaged with the pressing social issues of Cambodia, many of which are political – including climate change, the expression of identity and human rights (e.g. LGBTQ identity), corruption and scams, and democracy. However, artists, particularly in the performing arts and music sectors, must walk a tightrope in making works that address this kind of content, with incidents of censorship most likely to occur in music (Brennert and Yean 2023). This raises the question of how the arts can connect to society, and the possibilities and limitations of this relationship. This project follows on from our initial findings, focusing on young people who may not have much experience of the arts. It considers how the arts may work for young people as a form of civic participation and what that might look like in Cambodia. To do this it traced the journey of four young interns in producing a youth festival (the 7 Colours Festival) during the course of 2023 for Cambodian Living Arts (CLA). We examined their participation in creating the event, how they connected the festival to the social concerns of young people, and evaluated how young people participated in the festival.

Introduction
Authors: Marshall Jonathan P. , Cupitt Rebekah
Published: May 2024

The authors in this special issue present case studies of socio-cultural responses to technologies in terms of their relationships with ‘ethics’ and ‘politics,’ to ecologies, and to the ways in which those technological processes are framed as empowering, alienating, dispossessing, transformative or destructive. This introduction elaborates some connections between the papers, focusing on the ways that technology both creates, and becomes part of, ethical and political struggles over visions of the future. Technology is frequently used to increase the extent and range of control, and to impose a politicised order upon others in villages, towns, environments and landscapes, although this control cannot be guaranteed. Technology can also become part of the rhetoric used to persuade people of the inevitability, validity and desirability of imagined futures, while leaving other factors to be ignored. Technology, ethics and politics are not always separable, and the results of their interaction may not always be predictable.

Rice occurrence and dealings are features of the tradition of Bangladesh’s populace. However, their experience of parboiled paddy for domestic consumption is limited. Proper drying and tempering are very important for maximum milling output. The study was conducted to investigate the drying and tempering influence on the milling quality of parboiled paddy. The sample size of the paddy was 36 kg as per treatment. In the case of T1 (daily 4 hours sun drying) and T2 (daily 5 hours sun drying), 1-hour drying and 1/2 hour tempering were maintained, and for T3 (daily 4 hours sun drying) and T4 (daily 5 hours sun drying), 1-hour drying, and 1-hour tempering were maintained. The temperature of the paddy sample was varied from 18 °C to 42 °C in five treatments. Drying over three days at different time intervals led to reduced moisture content (from 23.42% to 9.24%), resulting in increased kernel hardness for reduced breakage during milling. The highest kernel strength after three days of drying was found to be 50.65 N/m for T4. The relative humidity, day temperature, air flow velocity, and solar radiation varied from 48% to 78%, 24 °C to 29 °C, 0.00 to 0.70 m/s, and 64450 to 108100 lux, respectively. Based on milled rice, the best milling output and head rice recovery were found to be 20.51 kg and 19.80 kg, respectively, for T4. The lowest quantity of broken rice was 0.50 kg found for T1 and T4, respectively. The lowest quantity of loss was 1.10 kg for T2, and the lowest quantity of husk and bran was 6.88 kg for T4. Results showed that among the five treatments, 5 hours of sun drying daily, maintaining the procedure of 1-hour drying and 1-hour tempering until the moisture content is reduced to 10% (T4), is more effective for increasing milling recovery.

Authors: Solaymani Saeed , Falahati Ali , Darabi Kaveh Derakhshani , Kaviar Hossain
Published: May 2024

The nations comprising the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) face a pressing need to enhance environmental sustainability, given their substantial reliance on fossil fuels, contributing to 5.2% of global CO2 emissions. Thus, understanding the pivotal role of renewable energy in this context is paramount. This research employs a panel vector autoregression method to analyze the interplay of financial development, renewable energy, and CO2 emissions across ASEAN nations from 1990 to 2020. Findings reveal that while renewable energy consumption shows an insignificant impact on carbon emissions, financial development, and economic growth significantly and positively influence emissions. Conversely, labor exhibits a notable negative correlation with CO2 emissions. Moreover, a bidirectional relationship exists between financial development and economic growth, as well as between labor and GDP. Additionally, unidirectional links are observed from capital formation to CO2 emissions, from renewable energy utilization to fossil fuel dependency, and from renewable energy usage to capital formation. These outcomes underscore the inadequacy of current financial systems in fostering environmental sustainability, highlighting the urgent need for integrating environmental considerations into their operations.
POLÍTICA Y ADMINISTRACIÓN DEL SISTEMA EDUCATIVO EN ESPAÑA. DEL MINISTERIO DE INSTRUCCIÓN PÚBLICA A LAS CONSEJERÍAS DE EDUCACIÓN DEL ESTADO AUTONÓMICO
Authors: FOCES GIL JAIME ANTONIO
Published: May 2024

La obra revisa la evolución de la Administración educativa española desde la creación del Ministerio de Instrucción Pública y Bellas Artes en el año 1900 hasta la generalización de las transferencias educativas a las Comunidades Autónomas en el año 2000. Cada capítulo examina la Administración activa central y, cuando es pertinente, la periférica, además de revisar la Administración consultiva. Así mismo va desgranando las políticas educativas desarrolladas en cada período histórico, relacionándolas con las circunstancias políticas que las determinaron.
Tras el nacimiento del Ministerio de Instrucción Pública y Bellas Artes se continúa con el intento de modernización administrativa de la Segunda República. Después de la Guerra Civil, el primer franquismo reforzará la burocracia, la jerarquía y el centralismo administrativos desde el Ministerio de Educación Nacional. Este modelo burocrático, y su fallida evolución hacia la tecnocracia, quedará agotado en el tardofranquismo, momento en el que se crea el nuevo Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia y se promulga la Ley General de Educación de 1970. La Transición democrática supone un nuevo intento de modernización administrativa que enlaza con el nacimiento de los departamentos de Educación de cada Comunidad Autónoma a finales del siglo XX.

FELIPE II, LA TERCERA VÍA Y LA MONARQUÍA UNIVERSAL
Authors: Rivero Rodríguez Manuel
Published: May 2024

Resumen
Este trabajo refunde distintas investigaciones que he realizado a lo largo de mi carrera en una sola. Cuando recibí el encargo de la cátedra Felipe II me di cuenta de que diversos temas que investigué en el pasado tenían un hilo que los comunicaba, abarcando una cronología muy clara, que vinculaba los primeros pasos de Felipe II como soberano con la tercera vía, ideada por el Gran Canciller Mercurino Arborio di Gattinara. Esta “tercera vía” era una solución a la crisis religiosa iniciada en 1517 que no pasaba ni por las manos del Papa ni por la de los protestantes, era una solución que tampoco era equidistante sino diferente y fundamentada en origen en la tradición gibelina. Es una línea que aparece y desaparece, que tan pronto aflora como discurre entre las sombras pero que siempre asomaba como posibilidad en momentos críticos, después del Saco de Roma en 1527, tras la campaña de Túnez en 1535, después de Mülhberg en 1547 y por último en 1554 cuando Felipe II fue coronado rey de Inglaterra y se procedió a reformar ese reino en una dirección que no fue precisamente la marcada por Roma. Aquí, exploraremos la suerte de esta idea formulada por el Gran Canciller en un encargo a Erasmo de Rotterdam y que, treinta y cinco años después, se cerró con el proceso al cardenal Carranza. Ahí se liquidó toda posibilidad de paz religiosa en Europa y la tercera vía quedó olvidada en el trastero de la Historia.
Cambio técnico y cambio estructural. La hipótesis de coeficientes decrecientes. Pruebas estadísticas con datos para México
Authors: Aroche Reyes Fidel
Published: May 2024

Los cambios en los coeficientes técnicos se explican esencialmente por cambios tecnológicos —salvo cuando hay diferencias en los precios. Asimismo, existen modelos que sostienen la hipótesis de que las diferencias de coeficientes a lo largo del tiempo serán negativas. Los datos para la economía mexicana proporcionan indicios de que esta hipótesis se cumple sobre periodos largos, si bien la evidencia es a veces contradictoria para los periodos cortos.

Abdominocentesis and intra-abdominal pressure measurement in small animals
Authors: Munguia George G. , Thomovsky Elizabeth
Published: May 2024

OBJECTIVE

To provide a video tutorial detailing how to perform “blind” and ultrasound-guided abdominocentesis for diagnostic and therapeutic guidance, and to provide a brief demonstration of intra-abdominal pressure measurement (IAP).

ANIMALS

Any cat or dog with suspicion of free abdominal effusion or patients requiring measurement of IAP.

METHODS

Abdominocentesis should be performed when there is high suspicion for peritoneal effusion based on physical exam and/or diagnostic imaging. The 4-quadrant tap uses 20-gauge or larger needles placed blindly in ≥ 1 of the 4 quadrants of the abdomen to collect abdominal fluid. In contrast, ultrasound allows visualization of fluid in the abdomen prior to percutaneous insertion of a needle and syringe to collect fluid. Regardless of collection technique, fluid should have immediate cytologic analysis and later can be submitted for biochemical parameters, additional cellular analysis by a pathologist, and culture and sensitivity (in rare cases if indicated). Intravesicular bladder pressure measurement using a manometer–urinary catheter system approximates the IAP when there is concern for organ hypoperfusion and compartment syndrome.

RESULTS

Abdominocentesis can be performed with and without the use of ultrasound guidance. Intravesicular bladder pressure measurement is used to diagnose and trend IAP values before and after treatments are performed.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Abdominocentesis is a simple and safe technique that all small animal clinicians should be comfortable performing. Effusion sampling can guide further diagnostics and treatments. Measurement of IAP is simple and requires no specialized equipment.

Published: May 2024

One of the urgent tasks of modern agricultural production is the problem of further development of agricultural produc-tion on an innovative platform. This will increase labor productivity, save resources, reduce costs, reduce production costs, increase production efficiency and ensure food security of Ukraine, which is one of the largest producers and exporters of wheat, corn, and barley in the world. One of such technologies that can ensure high profitability of agricultural production is the precision farming system.The concept of precision farming is based on the spatial heterogeneity of soil characteristics (relief, soil-forming rocks, snow cover, influence of ground and rainwater, diversity of vegetation cover, the impact of wildlife and human activities, etc.) within one field followed by differential compensation of these differences within one field.One of the key elements of the introduction of precision farming technologies is a differentiated approach to conducting all agricultural operations in the field. At the same time, savings of fuels and lubricants, consumption of seed material, ferti-lizers, plant protection products, water, the machine and tractor park of the enterprise is more effectively used, and the impact of agriculture on the natural environment is mitigated.The purpose of the research is the technology of precision farming in general, and variable rate seeding (Variable Rate Seeding, VRS) in particular, which allow you to correctly and precisely regulate the rate of sowing agricultural crops, applying fertilizers, plant protection products, irrigation in accordance with the properties of the soil, relief, meteorological conditions and a number of other factors. This allows to optimize the use of agricultural resources for each section of the field and improve plant productivity based on data on soil structure, pH, nutrient elements and yield maps.

National and Western Characteristics of Composition in the Concerto for the Bamboo Flute “Four Songs of Northern Shaanxi” (“陕北四章”) by Cheng Dazhao
Authors: Zeyu Gong
Published: May 2024

Shaanxi, as one of the birthplaces of Chinese civilisation, has an ancient history and culture, and the music of the province is imbued with a distinct local fl avour. The bamboo fl ute concerto “Four Songs of Northern Shaanxi” was created by Cheng Dazhao based on the intonations of the folk songs of Shanbei, and therefore the work has pronounced local characteristics. Within the framework of the article, the artistic characteristics and technique of performing the concert are analysed and considered. In the process of analysis, it was established that the composition technique of the “Four Songs of Northern Shaanxi” and the methods of performing the work differ from those accepted in traditional music. The characteristic features of the concert are fully refl ected in the innovation and breakthrough in performance technology, as well as the integration of Western techniques and national musical material. The composition of the work incorporates Western compositional techniques without destroying the traditional cultural characteristics and beauty of the national music contained in the work. Thanks to stylisation and the national musical language, the work conveys the characteristics of the music culture of Northern Shaanxi.
The “Contrasts” Sonata by G. I. Firtich: the Appeal to the Genetic Memory of the Genre
Authors: Shitikova Raisa G.
Published: May 2024

The article is devoted to the iconic work by G. I. Firtich, that is fi rmly established in the concert repertoire, but hardly represented in the scientifi c literature. The work indicates the avant-garde composer’s commitment to the traditional academic genre of chamber instrumental music. The author identifi es a complex of historically developed semantic features, which are uniquely implemented in the work under consideration. The article points out the most signifi cant features: the appeal to one of the variants of the classical ensemble composition, the concerto-like nature and, most importantly, the programme in which the most essential basic attributive feature of this genre is outlined – antitheticality, fulfi lled in the principles of contrast and dialogue, covering all levels of the musical composition. In conclusion, the author of the work emphasises that it is the contrast that generates the concept of the composition, becoming the main motive power and determining the features of the content, form, and all parameters of the musical language.

Modeling Realistic Structures of Trimetallic Nanoalloy Catalysts Using Chemically Meaningful Descriptors
Authors: Subramanian Arravind , Polynski Mikhail , Eswaran Mathan K. , Kozlov Sergey
Published: May 2024

The computational design of alloy catalysts is hindered by the uncertainty in their structure and arrangement of constituent elements within the lattice of catalyst particles, i.e., their chemical ordering. Moreover, chemical ordering in alloy nanoparticles (nanoalloys) can be affected by the reaction temperature due to thermal disorder. In this study, we develop a method for realistic simulations of trimetallic alloy nanocrystallites with the lowest energy chemical ordering or chemical ordering taking into account thermal disorder in the nanoalloy. This method is based on Monte Carlo simulations using topological lattice Hamiltonian, whose parameters are fitted to the results of density functional (DFT) simulations of thoughtfully designed archetypal nanoalloy structures. The implementation of this method in Python code is freely available online. Using this method, we characterized chemical orderings in nanoparticles composed of 79 and 338 atoms of metals with known catalytic activity in CO2 hydrogenation, namely, Pd-Pt-Cu, Ni-Pd-Cu, and Co-Rh-Cu. Our simulations show that the thermal disorder in these alloys significantly affects the composition of surface sites. Such structural changes are demonstrated to affect the average binding energies of reaction intermediates to the catalyst surface by up to 1.1 eV, implying their critical effect on the alloy’s catalytic properties. Moreover, we demonstrate how the developed code can be used for brute-force evaluation of entropic contributions to mixing free energies in alloy nanoparticles. The demonstrated abilities of the proposed method to generate realistic models of trimetallic nanoalloys in a computationally efficient manner enable reliable simulations of catalytic properties of trimetallic catalysts for their in-depth understanding and computational design.
Distinct calcium sources regulate temporal profiles of NMDAR and mGluR-mediated protein synthesis

Published: May 2024

Calcium signaling is integral for neuronal activity and synaptic plasticity. We demonstrate that the calcium response generated by different sources modulates neuronal activity–mediated protein synthesis, another process essential for synaptic plasticity. Stimulation of NMDARs generates a protein synthesis response involving three phases—increased translation inhibition, followed by a decrease in translation inhibition, and increased translation activation. We show that these phases are linked to NMDAR-mediated calcium response. Calcium influx through NMDARs elicits increased translation inhibition, which is necessary for the successive phases. Calcium through L-VGCCs acts as a switch from translation inhibition to the activation phase. NMDAR-mediated translation activation requires the contribution of L-VGCCs, RyRs, and SOCE. Furthermore, we show that IP3-mediated calcium release and SOCE are essential for mGluR-mediated translation up-regulation. Finally, we signify the relevance of our findings in the context of Alzheimer’s disease. Using neurons derived from human fAD iPSCs and transgenic AD mice, we demonstrate the dysregulation of NMDAR-mediated calcium and translation response. Our study highlights the complex interplay between calcium signaling and protein synthesis, and its implications in neurodegeneration.

Published: May 2024

Automatic lip-reading, the process of decoding spoken language through visual analysis of lip movements, presents a promising avenue for advancing human-computer interaction and accessibility. This research proposes an innovative model integrating 3D Convolutional Neural Networks (3D-CNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of lip-reading systems. The model addresses challenges related to lighting variations, speaker articulation, and linguistic diversity. This contrasts with traditional 2D-CNN, which focuses solely on spatial information, often missing temporal intricacies vital for accurate lip-reading. By incorporating 3D-CNN alongside LSTM, the proposed model significantly enhances recognition accuracy, offering a more comprehensive understanding of speech nuances. Extensive training on a diverse dataset and the exploration of transfer learning techniques contribute to the robustness and generalization of the model.

Published: May 2024

Dementia is a clinical illness that becomes more common as people get older. It is defined by a decline in cognitive abilities across several domains and eventually impacts everyday functioning. Consequently, this leads to a decline in autonomy, impairment, dependence on assistance, and ultimately, mortality. Alzheimer's disease (AD) is responsible for 50–80% of all occurrences of dementia, and its occurrence increases by a factor of five every five years beyond the age of 65. Given the availability of health data and the decrease in data processing costs, it is now feasible to detect Alzheimer's disease at an early stage. The objective of this study is to classify individuals as either Alzheimer's sufferers or healthy individuals by employing various machine learning techniques. The OASIS-2 dataset, which consists of longitudinal MRI data from both nondemented and demented older adults, was utilized for this study. Given its potential for early detection of Alzheimer's dementia, the study is anticipated to enhance clinical decision support systems pertaining to modifiable risk factors.

Desa Batu Kumbung merupakan desa yang terletak di Kecamatan Lingsar, Kabupaten Lombok Barat dengan luas lahan sebesar 2.816 Ha dan memiliki keunggulan berupa tanah yang sangat subur dan sumber air yang melimpah, sehingga warga memanfaatkannya sebagai sarana untuk mengembangkan budidaya dalam bidang pertanian yaitu budidaya tanaman hortikultura dan budidaya ikan yang bertempat di sekitar persawahan dan pekarangan rumah warga. Di sisi lain, masyarakat yang melakukan budidaya tersebut tidak memperhatikan limbah yang dihasilkan, sehingga lingkungan menjadi tercemar. Melihat kondisi tersebut, maka perlu dilakukan pengolahan limbah sampah organik dengan benar salah satunya yaitu membuat produk berupa pupuk organik cair. Percobaan ini bertujuan untuk mengurangi pencemaran lingkungan melalui pemanfaatan pupuk organik cair dalam optimalisasi pertumbuhan tanaman dan pemeliharaan keseimbangan lingkungan. Pembuatan pupuk organik cair, bahan-bahannya didapatkan dari limbah rumah tangga ataupun limbah pertanian. Kegiatan ini dilaksanakan pada tanggal 26 Juni -10 Juli 2023 di kediaman salah satu rumah warga dan metode yang digunakan adalah eksperimental. Narasumber berasal dari tim pengabdian Universitas Mataram. Peserta yang mengikuti kegiatan tersebut sebanyak 20 orang yang sasarannya dari kelompok Tani dan BUMDES. Hasil kegiatan tersebut menujukkan terjadinya kesadaran masyarakat dalam mengelola keseimbangan lingkungan dengan memanfaatkan limbah organik di Desa Batu Kumbung, Dusun Presak Sidekarye. Pengelolaan limbah yang baik dan benar dapat memberikan dampak positif terhadap masyarakat dan lingkungan sekitar guna mewujudkan pertanian yang ramah lingkungan dan berkelanjutan.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of using white kabesak leaves in the concentrate on biomass production, apparent and true degradability, and undegraded protein of rations In Vitro. This study used the In Vitro gas production method, designed using a group randomized experimental design. The proportion of grass forage and concentrate in the diet was 60:40. The treatment of the use of white kabesak leaves is R0: without white kabesak leaves (0%), R1: 10%, R2 20%, R3 30% and R4 40%. The results showed that the treatment had a very significant effect (P<0.01) on microbial biomass production, Apparent and True Degradability, and a considerable impact (P<0.05) on undegraded dietary protein rations. Biomass production decreased from 77.30 mg/500 mg DM in R0 to 43.6 mg/500 mg DM in R4. Apparent degradability from 287.25 mg/500 mg DM in R0 to 268.42 mg/500 mg DM in R4, and True degradability from 364.87 mg/500 mg DM in R0 to 312 mg/500 mg DM in R4. Undegraded dietary protein increased from 8.65% in R0 to 13.93% in R3. It was concluded that the use of white kabesak leaves in concentrates In Vitro produced a positive effect by decreasing feed protein degradation and increasing undegraded protein, making it more available post-rumen. The use of 20% white kabesak leaves in concentrate is the ideal level for In Vitro nutrient acceptance.
