Diffractive Readings of Data from Observation of Young Children’s Play Through Philosophical Theories: Encounters with a Scarf
Authors:   Korean Society for Young Children Becoming Curriculum, Lee Jin-Hee , Jang Yoon-Mi
Published: July 2023

This paper is about two researchers’ journey of enlivening the vitality of data from observation of young children’s play with scarves in a mixed-age classroom of 3- and 4-year-olds, by diffractively analyzing data with/through philosophical theories. Researchers endeavored to understand how the encounter with the observer, material agency of a scarf, memories and desires of young children, and discovered that socioculturally constructed meanings were all entangled to generate, disperse, connect, disconnect, and enfold heterogeneous spacetimes and material-discursive plays. Diffractive methodology was adopted to reassemble data while diffracting and intra-acting with theories of Foucault, Deleuze, and Barad. The vitality of play observation data was also entangled with the researchers toward spacetimemattering of data diffracted in-between multiple theories and practices, researchers’ past-present-future, an early childhood classroom and a graduate school classroom, human and non-human, along with our iteratively drawing/blurring their boundaries, and making new connections. We suggest the thinking-with-theory-data would open doors to illuminating the entanglements of space, time, materials, and meanings embedded in the play observation data.

Published: July 2023

The purpose of this study is to examine early childhood preservice teacher’s perception on play using the concept mapping analysis. Multidimentional scale analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis were performed. The results of this study can be summarized as follows. 47 final statements were finally generated based on the perception on play, and were classified into two dimensions of “the essence of play-play support” and “the educational significance of play-the developmental importance of play”. In addition, the statements were classified into five clusters: ‘diversity of play’, ‘aspects of play’, ‘role of teacher’, ‘necessity of play in young children’, and ‘value of play’. This study provides implication for support necessary for early childhood preservice teachers or the direction of early childhood teacher education course to form the desirable perception on play.

Authors:   Korean Society for Young Children Becoming Curriculum, Park Boyoung , Chung Shunah
Published: July 2023

The purpose of this study is to explore whether Play document are considered as machine and Playdocument-machine for Early Childhood Education and Care teachers. Accordingly, from October to December 2020, the process of making/sharing play documents with two teachers was held 10 times. Teachers encountered play documents and became Playdocument-machine. Teacher Moon became a play stop-machine~a play picture sense-machine~a play stop-machine. And the teacher, who became a Playdocument-machine, saw a child who gave an eye to an invisible play, listened to the child with her eyes, and made a play. In other words, teacher Moon has become a teacher who senses the child's play (learning) in detail. Teacher Heo became a changing form-machine~story writing-machine~play record accumulation-machine~a changing form-machine. Teacher Heo became a Playdocument-machine to understand children and teachers, feel children, and produce children's experiences. Teacher Heo became a teacher who felt the child's play (learning), supported, and listened to the child again. This study is meaningful in showing that it is the implementation of the curriculum that early childhood education and care teachers become Playdocument-machine.
2019 Revised Nuri Curriculum, What’s Next? : An essay on the revision of the national early childhood curriculum
Authors:   Korean Society for Young Children Becoming Curriculum, Lee Kyeong-Hwa
Published: July 2023

This essay is an introduction containing the researcher's suggestions on the revision of the national early childhood curriculum. Through the exploration of changes in the educational paradigm, the considerations of education demanded by the future society, and voices from early childhood teachers on the current curriculum, the paradigm of the follow-up curriculum and the values, contents, and ideas to be pursued were described in four dimensions. First, while proposing ‘posthuman child-learning’ as a paradigm for the follow-up curriculum, it was described that the value of care should be further emphasized and embodied in the language of the curriculum. And for a sustainable future, it was suggested that digital ethics and ecological ethics should be incorporated into the contents of the curriculum, and that the play-based curriculum should be expanded to the meaning of ‘curriculum of/for playful learning'. In the discussion, the tasks of revising the follow-up curriculum was mentioned, while describing that the researcher suggestions are interdependently connected and covered by the perspective of posthuman ethico-onto-epistem-ology.

Morphological asymmetry was analysed in two marine fish species Acanthopagrus arabicus and Planiliza klunzingeri, in brackish and freshwater habitats in southern Iraq. For both species, specimens from the Shatt al-Arab River and Shatt al-Basrah Canal exhibited greater asymmetry values for snout length. In both locations examined, the levels of asymmetry of the physical traits increased as the fish grew. The high levels of asymmetry in the two fish species may be linked to heavy metal pollutants in the two aquatic environments studied.

After the near absence of influenza and other respiratory viruses during the first 2 years of the COVID-19 pandemic, an increased activity of mainly influenza A(H3N2) was detected at the beginning of August 2022 in Greece on three islands. Of 33 cases with respiratory symptoms testing negative for SARS-CoV-2 with rapid antigen tests, 24 were positive for influenza: 20 as A(H3N2) subtype and four as A(H1N1)pdm09 subtype. Phylogenetic analysis of selected samples from both subtypes was performed and they fell into clusters within subclades that included the 2022/23 vaccine strains. Our data suggest that influenza can be transmitted even in the presence of another highly infectious pathogen, such as SARS-CoV-2, with a similar transmission mode. We highlight the need for implementing changes in the current influenza surveillance and suggest a move from seasonal to continuous surveillance, especially in areas with a high number of tourists. Year-round surveillance would allow for a timelier start of vaccination campaigns and antiviral drugs procurement processes.

Le mouvement communautaire québécois : le grand méchant flou ?
Authors: Fournis Yann
Published: July 2023

La présente réflexion entend revenir sur une partie de la littérature consacrée au « mouvement communautaire québécois » (MCQ), avec une lecture en deux étapes. Nous proposons en premier lieu une définition générique selon laquelle le mouvement communautaire serait un ensemble hétérogène de mobilisations visant à contester la prétention étatique au monopole du traitement collectif de la reproduction sociale. Puis, en second lieu, nous interrogeons dans une première partie l’objectif du MCQ en tant que tel, pour mettre en évidence la pluralité qu’il recouvre. Dans une seconde partie, nous nous tournons vers les études communautaires québécoises, pour souligner le décalage entre les approches pratiques et théoriques

Indonesia’s economic development inclusiveness accomplishment is relatively low. Mainly on economic’s growth and development. This is partly due to the orientation of past development which tends to be centralized. Since this centralized paradigm has diverted to decentralization, especially during the implementation of the village fund granting policy, it is necessary to examine the actual impact. This is a prominent issue considering that the implementation of village fund distribution has been running for more than five years and enough funds have been disbursed. Hence the purpose of this study is to measure the impact of providing village funds on the achievement of economic growth and development in Indonesia. The method used is a quantitative approach, with the technique of Difference-in-Difference (DID) analysis. The results of this study show that the provision of village funds is empirically proven to be able to positively accelerate the achievement of economic growth and development in a region in Indonesia. Thereupon the provision of village funds must remain consistently provided by continuing to seek various forms of improvement in its implementation

Awareness of cervical cancer and screening in Benin and Cameroon: an analysis of the Demographic and Health Survey, 2017-2018
Authors: Olajide Nike A , Jani Bhautesh D , Niedzwiedz Claire L , Johnman Cathy , Robb Kathryn A
Published: July 2023

Background

Cervical cancer incidence and mortality are high in Africa. We assessed cervical cancer and screening awareness in two West African countries.

Methods

We used data from the Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) in Benin (2017-2018) and Cameroon (2018). Women (n=21322) aged 15-49 were interviewed on awareness of cervical cancer and cervical cancer screening. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression analysis were employed.

Results

Awareness of cervical cancer was low among women in Cameroon (46.1%) and very low in Benin (9.5%). Among those aware of cervical cancer, 51.4% in Benin and 59.7% in Cameroon were also aware of cervical screening. In the adjusted analysis, women in Cameroon aged 45+ had the highest awareness odds of both cervical cancer (adjusted odds ratio, aOR=2.91, 95% confidence interval, CI=2.36-3.60) and screening (aOR=1.75, 95% CI=1.33-2.29). In Benin, women aged 45+ had the highest cervical cancer awareness (aOR=1.89, 95% CI=1.23-2.91) while screening awareness was highest in women aged 25-34 years (aOR=1.98, 95% CI=1.20-3.27). Women with higher education were six to nine times more aware of cervical cancer and three to four times more aware of cervical screening than women with no education in Benin and Cameroon respectively. Additionally, cervical cancer awareness was approximately four times higher in the richest wealth quintile in Cameroon. In Benin, the odds of awareness of cervical cancer were increased with daily internet use (aOR=3.61, 95% CI=2.45-5.32) and radio listening once a week (aOR=1.73, 95% CI=1.04-2.88) compared to no internet and no radio listening respectively. In Cameroon, both awareness of cervical cancer and screening increased with daily internet use (aOR=1.95, 95% CI=1.61-2.35) and (aOR=1.35, 95% CI=1.10-1.67) respectively.

Conclusions

There is a need to increase awareness of cervical cancer and screening in Benin and Cameroon and extend to other West African countries. The internet and radio appear to be important potentially effective means for raising awareness.
Development and pre-testing of chick and chicken transportation coop (box), at Arba Minch agricultural research center, Arbaminch, SNNPR, Ethiopia
Authors: Mekete Manjura Suntebo
Published: July 2023

This chick and chicken transportation cage technology was designed, produced and pretested as a creative innovation on its structure and convenience for traditional poultry producers who exist on rural areas of the country where there is no access to get plastic chick/chicken transportation cage. The data on this particular work was row materials, measurements of the cage parts, construction challenges, and opportunities on the hand of local carpenters/wood workers. In my opinion there will be many works in near future on modification of cage design, size, component number, row material and comparative evaluation based on suggested areas and with other cage technologies. At day old age which is very risky age for management, 94% of the chicks survived from AMARC cage and 98.7% from Plastic/Purchased type during phase 1 study. During phase 2 study, 99.7% of the chicks survived from AMARC cage and 100% from Plastic/Purchased type. Causes for the death of the chicks were management problem. For Matured chickens transportation, the current study clearly showed that using both cages resulted about 100% of the transported chickens survived.
Andrea Palladio. “… e sopra quelle vi sono i granari”

This book has been sponsored by Marmi Faedo, a company that ‘cultivates’ and nurtures a marble quarry in Spagnago di Cornedo Vicentino, in the Province of Vicenza, safeguarding land and nature with professionalism and thoroughly investigated eco-sustainable criteria. When the company applied for the regional authorisation for the tenyear renewal of the quarrying of architecture material, it also set up a project to redevelop the entire area through successive phases of organisation, sorting and reforestation of the areas that had been artificially modified by human’s work. Marmi Faedo has also preserved the existing ‘edges’ of the surrounding woods, creating a perimeter band that protects the quarry from the valley floor up to the hill in which it is excavated. The working area is thus a sort of “stone nest” shielded by the vegetation of the wooded ridge. The challenge was to accompany the human’s work with new, coherent and integrated landscape values: an expression of ethical and cultural values that create a direct synergy between the architectural culture of stone and the culture of a landscape that has been modified and reshaped by a proper hillside restoration. The inner walls of the “cavea-quarry” show stone steps, the results of excavations over time; the oldest part, which had been excavated by hand, will be left exposed to suggest the idea of a marble “cathedral” from which a strong, “Gothic-like” verticality rises. This publication is dedicated to the latest generation of the Faedo family as a sign of generational continuity that emphasises the hard work, dedication and passion required to work stone, but also the satisfaction for the beauty of things and the profound sense of continuity in history.

Este articulo analiza los objetos matemáticos (situaciones-problemas) ligados a la variable aleatoria y sus aplicaciones sobre las distribuciones de probabilidad en cinco libros de texto chilenos de Educación Secundaria, fundamentado en herramientas del Enfoque Ontosemiótico del Conocimiento y la Instrucción Matemáticos. Aquel objeto matemático es analizado con base a una guía de situaciones-problemas de los tópicos en cuestión diseñada a partir del currículo chileno oficial. Los resultados muestran ausencia y mínima presencia de actividades sobre calcular probabilidades asociadas a distribuciones binomial y normal empleando una herramienta tecnológica, y diferenciar entre variables deterministas y aleatorias, respectivamente. Aquello demuestra falta de alineación entre la propuesta del Ministerio de Educación chileno y los textos que este organismo distribuye gratuitamente. Esta investigación proporciona información valiosa a los profesores que enseñan la variable aleatoria y/o distribuciones binomial y normal en la escuela, investigadores interesados en desarrollar estudios sobre su comprensión y quienes diseñan libros de texto escolares para mejorar la presentación de estos temas.
Tendencias actuales en los estudios sobre Competencia Digital en Educación Primaria
Authors: Hernández García María Rosa , Martínez Aznar María Mercedes
Published: July 2023

La competencia digital (CD) es una de las ocho competencias clave (CC) del currículo español. A pesar de su importancia, apenas existen concreciones curriculares a nivel estatal para su desarrollo en educación primaria quedando estas reducidas a aquellos aspectos recogidos por parte de los centros educativos en sus programaciones didácticas. Para entender las tendencias actuales que tienen lugar en las aulas de primaria con respecto a la CD, esta investigación desarrolla un trabajo de revisión bibliográfica sistemática con dos objetivos: identificar los estudios que desarrollan la CD por medio de intervenciones didácticas, en torno a unos indicadores concretos, y recoger y analizar información sobre distintos aspectos generales y metodológicos de las mismas. Los resultados subrayan la falta de investigaciones, la variabilidad y especificidad de las intervenciones y de sus instrumentos y temporalización, así como el impacto positivo que estas actuaciones tienen en el desarrollo de la CD. El análisis y discusión de los indicadores en profundidad revela la necesidad de establecer pautas concretas para contribuir a la literatura científica y superar la diversidad en el tratamiento, definición y desarrollo de esta competencia fundamental para la sociedad actual.

La empatía psicológica es una capacidad poco atendida en la formación del profesorado, pero imprescindible para la comprensión del pasado histórico y su enseñanza. Por ello, proponemos como objetivo de esta investigación, revelar si la empatía psicológica favorece el desarrollo de competencias del pensamiento histórico en una muestra de 164 futuros enseñantes de Historia en la educación obligatoria. Planteamos un estudio correlacional en investigación didáctica, que trata de delimitar el grado de asociación entre lo psicológico y la comprensión de lo histórico. Para lograr dicho objetivo, en primer lugar, se sondean los valores de la empatía psicológica, desde su perspectiva afectiva y cognitiva. A continuación, se aborda la exploración de la empatía histórica mediante la implementación de una práctica de investigación, focalizada en nuestra historia reciente y el desarrollo de estrategias didácticas para la adopción de otra perspectiva. Finalmente, se ponen en correlación los valores emanados de la intervención en el ámbito de la Historia con los conseguidos en el estudio psicológico exploratorio. Los resultados finales muestran, por un lado, que las puntuaciones cognitivas de la empatía psicológica son significativamente más altas que las puntuaciones afectivas del constructo. Por otro lado, indican que el trabajo con estrategias didácticas sitúa a la muestra de universitarios en niveles de empatía histórica intermedios. Por último, se concluye que no existe una asociación significativa entre las dos variables de estudio, revelando el análisis correlacional un desacuerdo entre lo psicológico y lo histórico.

Las titulaciones de educación superior tienen entre sus funciones principales ofrecer una educación de calidad para formar a los trabajadores del mañana, para lo cual deben reforzar el desarrollo de competencias que faciliten su empleabilidad. Además, esta empleabilidad se verá positivamente afectada por una buena implementación de acciones orientadoras en sus tres vertientes (académica, profesional y personal) que permitan al alumnado resolver sus inquietudes y desarrollarse profesionalmente. Por ello, es fundamental que las instituciones dispongan de instrumentos que permitan conocer como perciben sus egresados estás dimensiones con el fin de mejorar la calidad de sus servicios educativos y orientadores. El presente artículo expone el proceso de desarrollo y validación de un instrumento que tiene por objetivo analizar el grado de adquisición de las competencias propias del Grado en Pedagogía por parte de la población egresada, así como su nivel de satisfacción con las acciones orientadoras llevadas a cabo por el personal docente durante el desarrollo de sus estudios y la promoción del desarrollo profesional dentro de la titulación. El análisis de fiabilidad corrobora la consistencia interna del instrumento, y los resultados del análisis factorial aconsejan la reconfiguración de algunas dimensiones, concluyendo con la conformación de la versión final del instrumento. El artículo ofrece una herramienta validada para evaluar las percepciones de los egresados sobre el desarrollo de competencias, la recepción de acciones orientadoras a lo largo de sus estudios, y la promoción del desarrollo profesional, en este caso centrado en el Grado de Pedagogía, pero fácilmente adaptable a otras titulaciones.

Published: July 2023

El artículo presenta los resultados de una investigación longitudinal que describe el proceso de transición de un aula con una estructura de trabajo individualista y/o competitiva a un aula con una estructura de aprendizaje cooperativa. La cultura cooperativa se va configurando mediante la progresión de la presencia e interacción de los factores de cooperación a través de etapas sucesivas. La investigación se enmarca en el paradigma cualitativo siendo el estudio de caso de carácter longitudinal el método de investigación. Los resultados muestran cómo se produce la construcción progresiva de la cultura cooperativa y las estrategias docentes que permiten modular el trabajo de los equipos. Se concluye con algunas orientaciones psicopedagógicas para la acción docente en la construcción de una cultura cooperativa del aula vinculadas a: la estabilidad de los equipos, la combinación de estructuras cooperativas simples y complejas, el proceso de evaluación de la cooperación, la utilización de instrumentos para enseñar a trabajar en equipo y el reconocimiento del alumnado que experimenta más barreras para participar y aprender.

Purpose. Construction of new and reconstruction of existing water supply systems, in order to increase water consumption, provides for the search and analysis of water supply new sources and water intake facilities. This issue acquires particular importance when looking for additional power sources for water supply systems with relatively low water consumption. To reduce the load on wastewater treatment plants that process water from open sources, infiltration intakes are used, which take water from underground aquifers. Infiltration water intakes can be vertical and consist of wells united by prefabricated pipelines or horizontal and have an underground horizontal water intake part − a drainage pipe. Therefore, the problem arises of determining the water intake that has the highest productivity under the same local conditions. Methodology. The productivity of water intakes is characterized by the influence of determining factors on the flow rate of water intakes with one-way feeding in a free-flow aquifer. The conditions of the location of the intake parts of the intakes in the aquifer and their sizes were considered as factors of influence. Results. The analysis of the existing methods for determining the productivity of underground infiltration water intake structures, depending on their location, the influence of water supply sources and design features. It has been determined that the greatest impact on the productivity of water intakes is the amount of water level decrease in the aquifer during water withdrawal, that is, the position of the dynamic water level relative to the static one. Also, the distance from the intake structure to the water's edge has a significant impact. Reducing the distance between the wells and the length of the drainage pipe, within the limits of the study conditions, has no effect on the results. As a result of the research, it has been established that, under the adopted hydrogeological and technical conditions, horizontal underground water intakes are distinguished by a large flow rate. Scientific novelty. The analysis of factors influencing the choice of infiltration water intake structures is carried out. The results of determining the productivity of structures under the same initial conditions are shown. Practical value. Using the results of the analysis allows you to most quickly and effectively solve the issues of choosing the option for powering water supply systems. The analysis has identified the most significant factors influencing the productivity of water intakes and makes it possible to vary them to achieve a result.

Problem statement. The current direction of the development of the energy policy of Ukraine is the transformation of the residential communal complex into a system that makes it possible to implement organizational and technical methods for creating energy-efficient multi-apartment residential buildings. The advantage of designing energy-efficient buildings is a high level of comfort, creating a favorable microclimate in a residential building, reducing the negative impact on the environment, reducing harmful emissions into the atmosphere, and saving energy resources. One of the main characteristics of the energy efficiency of buildings is the specific energy consumption for heating and cooling the premises per year. In order to achieve a reduction in the specific rate of thermal energy consumption for heating and ventilation of the building, it is necessary to responsibly approach the issues of the efficiency of energy-saving systems. It is possible to achieve an increase in energy efficiency with the help of a combination of various constructive, engineering and architectural planning measures, as well as the simultaneous use of modern engineering energy-saving methods and technologies in combination with a compact form and layout of the building. The purpose of the article. Analyze the calculation of the cost of energy resources of an apartment building, taking into acount energy-efficient solutions. Conclusions. An analysis of the dependence of energy costs of a multi-apartment residential building on the level of implementation of energy-efficient systems was carried out. During the construction of residential complexes in Odesa, the use of the system of energy-efficient solutions and the “Smart House” control system allows you to significantly reduce energy costs. Due to the use of an automated control system for technical devices in the building, a reduction in transmission costs and costs for the functioning of the ventilation system is achieved.
