Cell Phone Notifications Harm Attention: An Exploration of the Factors that Contribute to Distraction
Authors: Kaminske Althea , Brown Adam , Aylward Anna , Haller Mckenzie
Published: May 2022

Recent research has found that the presence of cell phones impairs attention during learning. The present experiment sought to better understand this phenomenon by measuring the effects of cell phone presence, cell phone notifications, and cell phone ownership (participant's or others) on attention. Attention was measured using a Stroop task in a within-subjects design, wherein participants (n = 105) were exposed to five experimental conditions. Cell phone notifications caused distractions, regardless of phone ownership and task difficulty, increasing the amount of time required to complete the task. However, unlike the noted literature above, the researchers did not find that the mere presence of a cell phone contributed to distraction. These results help us better understand which factors actually contribute to distraction and inattention.

Authors: Aminah Neneng , Sukestiyarno Yohanes Leonardus , Wardono Wardono , Cahyono Adi Nur
Published: May 2022

Prospective teachers facing the 21st century are expected to have the ability to solve problems with a computer mindset. Problems in learning mathematics also require the concept of computational thinking (CT). However, many still find it challenging to solve this problem. The subjects in this study were twenty-one prospective mathematics teachers who took number theory courses, and then two research samples were selected using the purposive sampling technique. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method to describe the thinking process of prospective teachers in solving Diophantine linear equation problems. The results showed that the first subject's thought process was started by turning the problem into a mathematical symbol, looking for the Largest Common Factor (LCF) with the Euclidean algorithm, decomposition process, and evaluation. The second subject does not turn the problem into symbols and does not step back in the algorithm. The researcher found that teacher candidates who found solutions correctly in their thinking process solved mathematical problem used CT components, including reflective abstraction thinking, algorithmic thinking, decomposition, and evaluation. Further research is needed to develop the CT components from the findings of this study on other materials through learning with a CT approach.
Factors Influencing Online Learner Performance During Coronavirus Disease Pandemic: A Case Study in Vietnamese Universities

Published: May 2022

Vietnam has a reputation for being a successful nation in preventing the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak in 2020, with a lower number of illnesses than other ASEAN countries. However, to ensure that students are safe and informed about the coronavirus outbreak, Vietnamese higher education has developed online learning (OL). During the COVID-19 epidemic, this paper explores the relationship between elements such as learning readiness, learning strategies, and learning performance in the Vietnamese OL setting. Four hundred undergraduate students were randomly selected from Hong Duc universities, and Saigon University participated in this study in different zones. Analyzed data has applied structural equation modeling (SEM) using partial least squares (SmartPLS-SEM). The findings found that Vietnamese students were much more likely to believe in interaction in OL, to feel comfortable using a computer with their computer efficacy, and to have confidence in communicating in the digital environment, all of which were important variables in assuring the success of using OL. The factors of “motivation” and “test preparation” show a poor relationship with learning performance. Therefore, the OL process in Vietnamese, on the other hand, needs to be more inventive, with a greater focus on lecturers' awareness and practice of online teaching pedagogies such as motivation, techniques, and test arrangement. During OL, students' readiness in terms of learning control, self-directed learning, and engagement must be considered and supported.

Authors: Abdul-Raof Shuhada , Musta’amal Aede Hatib
Published: May 2022

Competent instructors need to have the skills, abilities, and competencies to perform tasks effectively, which will affect student learning achievement. This study is guided by the theory of Boyatzis developed by Spencer and Spencer. The Iceberg Competency Model was used as a guideline to identify the competency elements of educators from the agricultural stream in vocational colleges (KV). This research study aims to explore and identify the existing competency elements of agricultural educators in KV. This study used a study population comprising 243 respondents of agricultural educators in KV. To answer the research question, the data analysis was done by Partial Least Squares - Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). This study is a study built to observe the relationship between the latent constructs studied. These constructs consisted of exogenous and endogenous constructs. In this study, exogenous constructs comprised value constructs, social roles, self-image, motives, traits and constraints. At the same time, endogenous constructs involved constructs of skills and knowledge. To ensure that the construct of this study gives meaning to the reflective measurement model, it was evaluated based on internal consistency reliability and validity. Regarding the framework, some indicators that did not qualify were dropped based on factor loading and average variance extracted (AVE). From the analysis conducted, 16 indicators were dropped since they did not meet PLS-SEM requirements. The total number of items retained was 71 indicators. At the final stage of this study, the evaluation model was implemented to form a framework involving the evaluation of the constructs linked to each other.

Authors: S. Trimurtini, , B. S. , L. Y. , Kharisudin Iqbal
Published: May 2022

Geometric thinking affects success in learning geometry. Geometry is studied from elementary school to university level. Therefore, in higher education and basic education, it is necessary to carry out a systematic review in order to obtain tips for improving geometric thinking skills. A systematic review of geometric thinking was done in this study. In this study from 2017 to 2021, geometric thinking was investigated in the form of a synthesis review of the effect size of the given treatment. This is a comprehensive discussion of theories, models, and frameworks on the topic of geometric thinking from 36 articles. The research findings revealed that the interventions used were predominantly effective, with effect sizes ranging from "small" to "very large," with the "very large" effect obtained in the intervention of van Hiele's learning phase and various technology-based-media and concrete manipulative media. The research trend was reflected through twelve clusters of interrelated keywords. The results of this literature review suggested that it is necessary to carry out a specific study on how to achieve the highest level of geometric thinking, a more detailed form of scaffolding, and concrete manipulative media and technology that can be explored for a certain level of the participants’ geometric thinking.

Authors: Idrees Maria , Malik Farah
Published: May 2022

The current study investigated the mediation effect of emotional reactivity and cutoff between attachment styles and interpersonal problems. The gender differences were also determined. A sample of (N = 200) students living in hostels of two universities of Lahore was used. There were (N = 100) female in the sample. The average age of the participants was 22.3 (SD = 1.46). The results of the study showed a significant relationship between close attachment style, emotional reactivity and cut-off, and with subscales of interpersonal problems like too much aggressive, too much caring, too much dependent, socially inhibited, hard to be involved, and hard to be supportive. Similarly, anxious and dependent attachment style showed significant relationship with emotional reactivity and cut-off and with subscales of interpersonal problems of hard to be sociable, hard to be assertive, hard to be supportive, hard to be involved, too aggressive, much caring, too open and too much dependent. The mediation analysis using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) revealed that emotional reactivity and cut-off showed partially significant mediation between attachment styles and interpersonal problems. Women showed more interpersonal problems as too open and too much caring compared to men living in hostels. The findings of the study have significant implications in the social structure of relationships in hostels, particularly in South Asian cultural context.

Authors: Ramdani Dani , Susilo Herawati , Suhadi Suhadi , Sueb Sueb
Published: May 2022

This review explores research into the effects of collaborative learning interventions on critical thinking, creative thinking, and metacognitive skill ability on biological learning. The search was conducted from 2000 to 2021. We found 36 critical thinking studies, 18 creative thinking studies, and 14 metacognitive skill studies that met the criteria. The results showed that collaborative learning influences large categories (ES=4.23) on critical thinking, influences large categories (ES= 7.84) on creative thinking, and influences large categories (ES= 8.70) on metacognitive skill. The study's findings show that collaborative learning interventions have the highest impact on metacognitive abilities. Based on these findings, we provide insights for education research and practitioners on collaborative learning interventions that seem to benefit the empowerment of high levels of thinking at various levels of education to be combined with various other interventions in the future. The type of intervention, level of education, materials used, and study quality criteria were included in the study.
Evaluation of Conducting and Tensile Properties of Reduced Graphene Oxide/ Polybutylene Adipate Terephthalate (Rgo/Pbat) Nanocomposites

Published: May 2022

This study was focused on evaluation of conducting and tensile properties of rGO/ Polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT) nanocomposite intended to use in electronic applications which require biodegradability. This study was also considered to be worthwhile since very little work has been done in this regard so far. PBAT was specifically selected for the study as it is an extensively used biodegradable polymer for variety of applications. The solvent casting method was employed to prepare rGO/PBAT nanocomposites where rGO was dispersed in a solution of PBAT by ultrasonication followed by evaporation of the solvent components. Electrical conductivity (σ) of rGO/PBAT nanocomposites showed a percolation behavior as rGO content was increased from the 0.5 % to 1.5 % (σ increased drastically with the increase of rGO content). The percolation threshold was approximately 0.0045, (i.e., 0.75 w/w % of rGO). The average critical exponent (t) related to the percolation theory was 1.49 ± 0.19 which is well within the expected range 1< t < 2. According to impedance studies, the electrical impedance of GO/PBAT composites decreased with the increasing rGO content, which agreed well with the behavior of the electrical conductivity investigated previously. The same equivalent circuit was shown by each composite except the values for constant phase element CPE and resistor R; the equivalent electrical circuit was a parallel combination of CPE and R. The dielectric analysis of the composites indicated that dielectric parameters ϵ”, ϵ’ and dissipation factor increased significantly with increasing rGO content. The tensile strength of the composites was better than that of neat PBAT up to 1.5 % of rGO loading and decreased on further increasing of rGO. However, their tensile strain at break decreased with increasing rGO content. The results indicated that PBAT/rGO polymer composite is promising candidate for various electronic applications.
Outcomes of patients with non-lower gastrointestinal cancer diagnosed via the lower gastrointestinal two-week-wait service
Authors: Hubbard TJE , Burton HLE , Pringle H , Bethune R , McDermott FD
Published: May 2022

Introduction

Patients referred via lower gastrointestinal two-week-wait (LGI-2WW) services deemed at ‘low risk’ of LGI cancer may have delayed or no investigation. However, 20% of patients diagnosed with cancer via the LGI-2WW have non-LGI cancer. This study investigates the outcomes in this under-reported group.

Methods

A retrospective analysis of patients referred to a UK LGI-2WW service with a non-LGI cancer diagnosis (International Classification of Diseases 10th revision) between 1 January 2015 and 31 December 2018. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality. Statistical analysis was undertaken using Kaplan–Meier survival curves with generalised log-rank test and binomial logistic regression of pre-investigation information to predict death. A p-value of < 0.05 represented statistical significance.

Results

In total, 140 patients were diagnosed with non-LGI cancer (of 10,155 patients referred via the LGI-2WW pathway). Median follow-up was 13 months (range 0–65 months). Thirty-five patients (35/140; 25%) did not meet LGI-2WW referral criteria. Median survival varied by cancer site (upper gastrointestinal: 43/140 patients, median survival 4 months; gynaecological: 25/140, 25 months; haematological: 22/140, < 50% died; urological: 21/140, 47 months; unknown primary: 12/140, 3 months; lung: 10/140, 17 months; breast: 3/140, 5 months; retroperitoneal: 2/140, 9 months; brain: 1/140, 4 months; adrenal: 1/140, 52 months). Binomial logistic regression was statistically significant (chi-squared goodness-of-fit test = 12.334; p = 0.03); but the presence of comorbidity was the only significant predictive factor of death (p = 0.03).

Conclusions

Patients with non-LGI cancers cannot be easily predicted and have a poor prognosis. Pathways to streamline investigations for LGI cancer should include computed tomography scans for patients at ‘low risk’ of LGI cancer to ensure that non-LGI cancers are diagnosed.
Isolated volar dislocation of the distal radioulnar joint: a case series and systematic review
Authors: O’Malley O , Brown OC , Duncan L , Cheung G , Stevenson HL , Brown DJ
Published: May 2022

Introduction

Isolated volar dislocations of the distal radioulnar joint are reported as rare. We observed three such cases over a 12-month period. Literature to date consists of multiple case reports and case series with no structured reviews. There is debate as to incidence, mechanism, investigation, treatment and prognosis.

Methods

A case series and formal systematic review was performed. This included an analysis of the demographics, mechanism, presentation, investigation, treatment and outcome of the cases identified from the wider published series.

Findings

In total 99 cases of this injury were identified from 59 papers, with a further 9 cases having an associated ulna styloid fracture.

Conclusions

This is a rare injury, representing up to 0.02% of all bony injuries, which is diagnosed late in 36% of cases. Inability to obtain a true lateral radiograph may contribute to the diagnosis being missed. Computed tomography scans are useful in suspected cases without radiographic confirmation. Acute cases are successfully treated with closed reduction in 78% of cases; however associated soft tissue injuries may need to be surgically addressed. Delayed presentation is more likely to require open surgery and preoperative MRI scans are indicated to aid surgical planning. Chronic instability rarely occurs and may need treatment with reconstruction or salvage. A good, subjective, result is reported in the majority of patients.
Blurred spectral images restoration technology for AOTF imaging spectrometer based on dual-path architecture
Authors: Zhou Pengwei , Wang Ying , He Zhuoer , Xu Huasheng , Li Yi , Yao Dong
Published: May 2022

The acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF) imaging spectrometer is a staring-type instrument that acquires spectral images of different bands asynchronously and sequentially, and is susceptible to platform jitter and target motion. When the integration time of the detector increases, serious spectral images degradation occurs along with a large band-to-band misregistration. The dual-path optical configuration, capable of simultaneously acquiring diffracted and undiffracted beams of AOTF, has been shown to be effective in solving the problem of band-to band misregistration. Hence by solving the remaining spectral image degradation problems, the application range of AOTF will transcend the previous limitation. Therefore, this paper presents a new, to the best of our knowledge, method of capturing a series of short-exposure undiffracted beam images to calculate the blur kernel of the diffracted spectral images, since the high-intensity characteristics of the undiffracted beam can also be exploited in the dual-path system. The paper starts with analyzing the impact of the platform on spectral images, and then demonstrates the development and calibration of a dual-path based spectral image deblurring method. Finally, laboratory experiment verifies that the resulting blur kernel can be effectively used for spectral image restoration, thus demonstrating the robustness of this technique.
Clinical time-to-event prediction enhanced by incorporating compatible related outcomes
Authors: Gao Yan , Cui Yan
Published: May 2022

Accurate time-to-event (TTE) prediction of clinical outcomes from personal biomedical data is essential for precision medicine. It has become increasingly common that clinical datasets contain information for multiple related patient outcomes from comorbid diseases or multifaceted endpoints of a single disease. Various TTE models have been developed to handle competing risks that are related to mutually exclusive events. However, clinical outcomes are often non-competing and can occur at the same time or sequentially. Here we develop TTE prediction models with the capacity of incorporating compatible related clinical outcomes. We test our method on real and synthetic data and find that the incorporation of related auxiliary clinical outcomes can: 1) significantly improve the TTE prediction performance of conventional Cox model while maintaining its interpretability; 2) further improve the performance of the state-of-the-art deep learning based models. While the auxiliary outcomes are utilized for model training, the model deployment is not limited by the availability of the auxiliary outcome data because the auxiliary outcome information is not required for the prediction of the primary outcome once the model is trained.

Published: May 2022

Guar meal (GM) can be considered as an alternative protein source for the livestock and has a potential value as a feed to animals with a high protein content ranging between 45–55%. A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of partial replacement of groundnut cake (GNC) with guar meal (GM) on reproductive efficiency, hormone profile, antioxidant status in Deccani ewes fed sorghum stover based complete feed blocks (SSCFB). Twenty-one non-pregnant Deccani ewes (b. wt. 23.34 ±0.40 kg; 2–4 years old and body condition score 2.51±0.56) were randomly divided into three groups to contain 7 animals each in a completely randomized design. Three dietary treatments viz. S1: conventional feeding (sorghum stover and concentrate mixture fed separately in 50:50 ratios to meet the requirement), S2: SSCFB with GNC as protein supplement in concentrate mixture and S3: SSCFB with GM replacing GNC nitrogen of S2 at 50% level. The ewes were synchronised for estrus with progesterone impregnated intravaginal sponges and naturally mated. The ewes were fed at the rate of 3.1 and 3.7% of their body weight from 1stday of experiment—to 108thday of gestation and from 108thday of gestation to till lambing, respectively. The replacement of 50% of GNC nitrogen with GM and densification of diet had no effect (P>0.05) on average DMI (g), antioxidant status, progesterone concentration, conception rate, non return rate, no of matings per service, lambing rate, body weights of lambs at birth, 15 and 30 days of age. GNC can be partially replaced by GM in the ewes diet without any adverse effect on reproductive parameters, antioxidant status, progesterone concentration and weight of lambs.
Crisis in Mexico
Authors: Corona Antonio
Published: May 2022

This paper analyzes the relationship between the Mexican President’s discourse on COVID-19 and the use of Twitter by state officials at the start of the pandemic, through content analysis and supervised machine learning. Analyzing all tweets by state-level agencies during the first 6 months of the pandemic, we found that accounts belonging to the ruling party tweeted consistently less about COVID, compared to the opposition. Furthermore, the social-distancing hashtags endorsed by the Health Department were underused by the party’s own officials. We hypothesized that the president’s skeptical discourse on COVID-19 had a chilling effect on party officials’ use of Twitter during this period. Two random forest machine learning models were trained using the president’s words as predictors not only of the officials’ political alignment, but also of the amount of COVID tweets they posted. The models proved reliable, and the words most significant for prediction are markedly indicative of populist rhetoric. This illustrates how populist discourse from heads of government can undermine communication between institutions and citizens.
La prensa pedagógica como fuente y como objeto de estudio en España (1936-1975). Una revisión sistemática
Authors: Ortiz de Santos Rosa , Nieto Ratero Álvaro
Published: May 2022

La prensa pedagógica profesional ha sido un tema de creciente interés para la historiografía educativa. Muestra de ello son los numerosos repertorios analíticos publicados en distintos países, así como las investigaciones que se han llevado a cabo empleando la prensa pedagógica como objeto de estudio o como fuente para la investigación de temáticas específicas. El objetivo de esta aportación consiste en realizar una revisión sistemática de la literatura producida en España sobre diferentes títulos de prensa pedagógica surgidos durante la Guerra Civil y la Dictadura Franquista. Se ha creado un banco de 686 títulos de prensa a partir del repertorio analítico más completo que se ha publicado en nuestro país (Checa, 2002) y, posteriormente, se ha realizado la búsqueda sistemática en las principales bases de datos científicas (Scopus, Web of Science, Dialnet y TESEO). Se han recuperado 81 investigaciones correspondientes a 32 revistas de la época seleccionada, gran parte pertenecientes a los títulos de prensa pedagógica más reconocidos, de difusión nacional, como Cuadernos de Pedagogía o Revista Española de Pedagogía, lo que demuestra que la mayoría de las publicaciones educacionales de esta época están inexploradas por la historiografía. Esto es una indudable oportunidad para el surgimiento de líneas de investigación en el ámbito de la Historia de la Educación.
Prevalence of susceptibility to Cryptosporidium spp. among dairy calves with different feeding regimens with an emphasis on the feeding of transition milk
Authors: Zolova Alīna , Keidāne Dace , Zolovs Maksims
Published: May 2022

Background and Aim: Colostrum composition and importance for newborn organisms were repeatedly studied. However, the interest in transitional milk usefulness is weak and recommendations concerning transition milk intake are not developed. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether transition milk intake after colostrum consumption affects the chances of calf infection with Cryptosporidium spp.

Materials and Methods: We collected data for Cryptosporidium spp. infection from calves (n=425) divided into three groups: The first group – supervised colostrum and transition milk intake; the second group – supervised colostrum and whole milk intake; and the third group – not supervised colostrum and whole milk intake. To detect oocysts of Cryptosporidium spp. in feces, the flotation method was used, and slides were stained using the modified Ziehl-Neelsen method. Generalized linear mixed modeling was conducted to determine whether the explanatory variable – the management of colostrum and transition milk feeding with three categories (three research groups) – was related to the probability of calves incurring infection with Cryptosporidium spp.

Results: In the first group, 26.1% of calves were positive for the presence of Cryptosporidium spp. oocysts, in the second – 37.2%, and in the third – 44.1%. Statistical data analysis showed that calves who did not receive transition milk after colostrum consumption had increased chances of having Cryptosporidium spp. (by 1.90-2.47 times on average). The main results showed that the management of colostrum and transition milk feeding is related to Cryptosporidium spp. infection, indicating that both colostrum and transitional milk play a significant role in controlling pathogenic infections.

Conclusion: The most effective management of colostrum and transition milk feeding against Cryptosporidium spp. infection is the timely intake of an adequate amount of colostrum followed by transitional milk consumption for at least 2 weeks before weaning from the dam.
First study on microscopic and molecular evidences of two bovine hemoplasma species in cattle herds in Al-Qadisiyah Province, Iraq
Authors: Khudhair Yahia Ismail , Saleh Zeena Fouad , Ayyez Hayder N.
Published: May 2022

Background and Aim: Hemotropic Mycoplasmas are small epierythrocytic bacteria that cause infectious anemia in several livestock species and in humans. Several reports have been made on hemoplasma infections in the south and north of Iraq, but there have been no studies in the middle Euphrates of Iraq. This study aimed to evaluate the presence of hemoplasma species in cattle in Al-Qadisiyah Province, Iraq.

Materials and Methods: Two hundred blood samples were collected from cattle with pale mucous membrane from regions with heavy tick endemicity. The samples were analyzed for the presence of Rickettsia pathogens using thin blood smears and the Diff-Quik stains. All the samples were also examined using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to amplify the 16S ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) gene to confirm the presence of the smear-identified microorganisms. Ten PCR positive samples were subjected to 16S rRNA partial gene sequencing to identify the species.

Results: The findings uncovered positivity in 68 (34%) blood smears. PCR revealed positive confirmation in 18 (9%) of the 200 blood samples. Mycoplasma wenyonii and Candidatus mycoplasma hemobos were identified from 10 PCR positive samples. The nucleotide sequences of the isolates were closely related to isolates from cattle, buffalo, and dogs in Vietnam, Cuba, India, and Germany.

Conclusion: Bovine hemoplasma infections are prevalent in cattle in the Al-Qadisiyah Province in Iraq. Our results may have significance for the development of control programs.
Az ikon deszakralizációja

Published: May 2022

A disszertáció az orosz ikonfestészet hagyományainak a 20. század (avantgárd) művészetére gyakorolt hatását vizsgálja. Az orosz avantgárd alkotói művészetükbe organikusan beépítették az ikonfestészet ikonográfiai elveit, miközben saját művészi látásmódjuk szerint átdolgozták azokat. A magyar művészettörténet két nagy alkotója, Uitz Béla és Vajda Lajos életművében szintén rendkívüli jelentőségre tett szert a hagyományos ikon-értelmezés újragondolása, és az adott életművön belüli hangsúlyos megjelenítése. A két különböző művészi látásmód bemutatása során részletesen elemzést olvashatunk arról, hogyan hatottak az orosz avantgardisták e két művész alkotói pályájára, illetve hogyan építették be művészetükbe az orosz és a szerb ikonművészet jelenségeit.
Az egész életen át tartó tanulás óvodás-, és kisiskoláskori megalapozásának vizsgálata
Authors: Flick-Takács Nikolett
Published: May 2022

A globalizáció kihívásaira reagálva az egész életen át tartó tanulás a 21. század vezető tanulási-tanítási paradigmájává vált. A koncepcióhoz köthető tudományos munkák és a köznevelési szabályozás dokumentumai egyaránt hangsúlyozzák az első 12 év fontosságát az egész életen át tartó tanulásban (Berman, 1984; Kraiciné, 2009; ÓNOAP, 2012; NAT, 2012). Ennek ellenére azonban máig nem születtek olyan kutatások, amelyek az alapozó szakasz, az óvodás-, és koragyermekkor vizsgálatával foglalkoznának e tekintetben. Kutatásunk ezt az űrt hivatott betölteni, hiszen a pedagógusok tevékenységén és nézetein keresztül vizsgálja az egész életen át tartó tanulás alapozó szakaszát. Kutatási célunk elérése érdekében 5 kutatási kérdést állítottunk fel, amelyek az kutatási eszközeink megbízhatóságára és érvényességéra fókuszálnak (K1), a pedagógusok LLL támogató tevékenységeit (K2), LLL nézeteit (K3), tevékenységeik és nézeteik összehasonlítását (K4) célozzák, valamint az óvodapedagógusok és a tanítók összehasonlítása is sor kerül az egész életen át tartó tanulás tevékenysége és ahhoz köthető nézeteik szempontjából (K5). Kombinált kutatásunkban kérdőív (N = 603), megfigyelés (N = 65) és interjú (N = 201) segítségével vizsgáltuk az óvodapedagógusokat és tanítókat. Elméleti keretünk egy saját fejlesztésű modell, amely Klug et al. (2014) munkáján és kvalitatív előkutatásunk eredményein alapszik. A validálás és a megbízhatóság érdekében triangulációt alkalmaztunk és statisztikai elemzéseket végeztünk (EFA, CFA, Cronbach Alpha). Az adatgyűjtés 2019-ben és 2020-ban történt. A kérdőíves felmérést online platformon, szakértői mintavétel segítségével végeztük, majd az adatok elemzéséhez az SPPS, az AMOS és az Atlas.ti szoftereket használtuk. Eredményeink azt mutatták, hogy a pedagógusok LLL nézetei erősen befolyásolják LLL tevékenységüket (33%). Az LLL-lel kapcsolatos gondolkodásuk azonban gyakran egydimenziós, amit a „tanulás” kifejezés miatti félreértések is okozhattak. A motiváció bizonyult a leghangsúlyosabbnak az LLL támogatásában, azonban felfedeztünk néhány különbséget az óvodapedagógusok és a tanítok között a támogatás módjában. Míg az óvodapedagógusok a motivációban bizonyultak aktívabbnak a LLL támogatásában, addig a tanítók részmintáján az önszabályozás volt hangsúlyosabb az óvodapedagógusokhoz képest. Kutatásunk eredményei jó kiindulópontot jelentenek további tudományos munkák megalapozásához, valamint a pedagógia gyakorlata számára is, hiszen alapul szolgálhatnak a 21. századi, új módszertani kultúra megismeréséhez is.
The Bosphorus Incarnate
Authors: Barış Yılmaz
Published: May 2022

Disszertációm Orhan Pamuk prózáiban viszgálja a posztmodern narratológiai technikákat és stratégiákat. Ezenkívül az identitás kérdéseinek megnyilvánulásaival, Pamuk munkájának igen fontos elemeivel foglalkozik, melyekre gyakran Kelet és Nyugat találkozópontjaiként tekintenek. Pamuk írói személyisége, amelyet gondosan felépített magának, alátámasztja a feltételezést, hogy ő maga „A Megtestesült Boszporus”, amelynek végső funkciója, hogy helyenként összekösse Ázsiát Európával, máskor elválassza azokat. Célom ebben a dolgozatban ezért elsösorban az volt, hogy bemutassam ezt a gyakran hangoztatott felvetést. Pamuknak azon regényeit elemeztem, melyek megelőzték az író hírnévét, elemzéseim során pedig a regényeiben alkalmazott posztmodern narratív technikákat figyeltem meg, illetve azokat a kulturális tényezőket, melyek Keletről és Nyugatról egyszerre táplálták a műveket. Munkám eredményeként felfedeztem, hogy Pamuk regényeinek narratológiai elemei összehangolhatók a nyugati irodalmi kánon posztmodern vonulatával, miközben klasszikus török/közép-keleti irodalomi és művészeti gyökereit is megőrzi. További következtetésem, hogy a Pamuk áltál kiválasztott témák, amelyekben a keleti és a nyugati kultúrák keveredését figyelhetjük meg, egyben az általa alkalmazott narratológiai technikákkal is összhangban vannak. A kutatásom egyéb megállapítása, hogy Pamuk rendszerint a történetmesélésre helyezi a hangsúlyt, ami új történetek létrehozását, de főleg régiek feldolgozását, új kontextusokba helyezését jelenti, s kevéssé jellemző, hogy az író „nagy elbeszéléseket” (grand récits) igyekezne felépíteni, vagy hogy nyomatékos megállapításokat kívánna rögzíteni.
Zenei fejlesztés első osztályosok körében digitális eszközök használatával az ének-zene órán
Authors: Szabó Norbert
Published: May 2022

A digitális eszközök oktatásban való felhasználásának, tapasztalatainak világszerte kiterjedt irodalma van. Elenyészően kevés azonban az olyan digitális oktatóprogram - és az ezekhez kapcsolódó empirikus vizsgálat - amely komplexen, az osztálytermi zeneoktatás teljes spektrumát lefedve épül be az ének-zene oktatás gyakorlatába. Vizsgálatunkban az általunk kifejlesztett digitális zenei oktatóprogram, a Zenesziget applikáció ének-zene órai felhasználásának hatásvizsgálatát tűztük ki célul első osztályos tanulók bevonásával. Úgy gondoltuk, hogy egy, az alsó tagozatos tanulók számára fejlesztett játékos zenei oktatóprogram eredményesen hozzájárulhat a zenei percepció fejlődéséhez, a zenei hangmintázatok eredményesebb feldolgozásához, ezzel együtt a zenei befogadó kompetenciák fejlődéséhez és a készségek létezésének tudatosulásához, valamint a motiváció és tantárgyi attitűd javulásához. Az adatfelvételt egy dél-magyarországi nagyváros általános iskoláiban végeztük. Kontrollcsoportos kísérleti elrendezést alkalmaztunk. A kísérleti csoportot két iskola, öt osztályának 100 tanulója (38 fiú), a kontrollcsoportot négy iskola, hat osztályának 103 tanulója (52 fiú) alkotta. A digitális környezetbe helyezett ének-zene oktatásnak a kottaolvasás és az éneklés fejlődésére, valamint a hangszerismeret gyakorolt hatásait vizsgáltuk. Digitális programunk ének-zene tantárgyi attitűdre gyakorolt hatásait, valamint a tanulók digitális eszközhasználattal kapcsolatos attitűdjét szintén megvizsgáltuk. Eredményeink alapján a Zenesziget applikáció ének-zene órai felhasználása eredményes volt. A kísérleti csoport szignifikánsan magasabb fejlettségét mutattuk ki mind a kottaolvasás összevont mutatója fejlettségében, mind pedig az egyes résztesztekben. A hangszerek ismeretét szintén a kísérletben résztvevő tanulók sajátították el alaposabban. Digitális programunk az éneklés fejlődésére ugyancsak pozitív hatást gyakorolt. Az ének reprodukció a kísérleti csoportban jelentősen nagyobb mértékben fejlődött. Kutatásunk azt igazolta, hogy a digitális eszközök arányos bevonása a 21. századi gyermekek számára élményszerű tanulási környezetet jelent.

One of the professions in the marine sector that is mostly occupied by people living in coastal areas is seaweed cultivation. Seaweed is one of the marine product commodities with great potential to be developed in Indonesia because it has high economic value. One of the areas that are included as producers of Eucheuma Cottonii seaweed is Nunukan Island, which is located in Nunukan Regency, North Kalimantan Province. The main factor that determines success in seaweed cultivation activities is the selection of land locations. Errors in site selection can lead to crop failure and low quality of the seaweed produced. The purpose of this study is to create a decision support system to facilitate and assist the community in selecting the best location for seaweed cultivation quickly and precisely according to the criteria using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method to calculate the criteria weights and the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method for performing alternative ratings. The criteria used were 7, namely depth, pH, current speed, brightness, temperature, salinity, and dissolved oxygen, while alternative data were 11 points of seaweed cultivation locations on Nunukan Island. Based on the results of the implementation of the two methods, recommendations for two locations for seaweed cultivation are Sei Banjar I and Sei Banjar II with the same preference value of 0.937 which is the highest value compared to other alternatives.

Universities as educational institutions have very large amounts of academic data which may not be used properly. The data needs to be analyzed to produce information that can map the distribution of students. Student academic data processing utilizes data mining processes using clustering techniques, K-Means and K-Medoids. This study aims to implement and analyze the comparison of which algorithm is more optimal based on the cluster validation test with the Davies Bouldin Index. The data used are academic data of UIN Sunan Kalijaga students in the 2013-2015 batch. In the k-Means process, the best number of clusters is 5 with a DBI value of 0.781. In the k-Medoids process, the best number of clusters is 3 with a DBI value of 0.929. Based on the value of the DBI validation test, the k-Means algorithm is more optimal than the k-Medoids. So that the cluster of students with the highest average GPA of 3,325 is 401 students.
Студенческое представительство в университетском управлении: факторы вовлеченности
Authors: Ефимов Дмитрий Борисович
Published: May 2022

Статья посвящена малоисследованному в России, но важному в мировом контексте аспекту университетского менеджмента — студенческому представительству. Опираясь на результаты предшествующих исследований и данные о выборах органов студенческого представительства в НИУ ВШЭ в 2019 г., автор выделяет несколько групп факторов вовлеченности в студенческое представительство. Во-первых, это универсальные детерминанты, связанные с любым типом участия (уровень обучения, материальное положение, академическая и социальная успешность, число однокурсников-единомышленников). Во-вторых, факторы более активного (мужской пол, бюджетное место, неиногороднее происхождение, взаимодействие с научно-педагогическими работниками университета, восприятие конкуренции как вызова) и менее активного участия (женский пол, платное место, иногороднее происхождение, диверсифицированное информационное потребление, неприятие большого объема конкуренции). В статье представлены рекомендации по обустройству эффективного студенческого представительства и стимулированию студентов к участию в нем (сглаживание внутренних неравенств и формирование менее разделенного как в социальном, так и в информационном плане сообщества).

Самоуверенность, склонность к риску и склонность к недобросовестным действиям как детерминанты экономического поведения студентов
Authors: Малкина Марина Юрьевна , Рогачев Дмитрий Юрьевич
Published: May 2022

В статье анализируется взаимосвязь уровня самоуверенности студентов и склонности к риску и недобросовестным действиям как детерминант их поведения в экономической сфере. Исследование основано на данных авторского социологического опроса 611 студентов Нижегородского государственного университета им. Н. И. Лобачевского. Предложены и апробированы оригинальные методы оценки трех исследуемых характеристик. Для построения зависимостей использовались методы корреляционно-регрессионного анализа.
Опрос позволил выявить интенсивность проявления разных характеристик среди разных групп студентов. В общей выборке студентов обнаружена положительная связь между уровнем самоуверенности и склонностью к недобросовестным действиям, с одной стороны, и склонностью к риску — с другой. В группе респондентов с невысоким уровнем самоуверенности связь самооценки с уровнем знаний и склонностью к риску прямая, однако отсутствует связь самооценки со склонностью к недобросовестному поведению. В то же время в группе опрошенных с высоким уровнем самоуверенности зависимость между уровнем знаний и самооценкой обратная, и наблюдается прямая тройственная взаимосвязь между самоуверенностью, склонностью к риску и склонностью к недобросовестному поведению. Построенные эконометрические модели показали, что склонности к риску и недобросовестному поведению больше присущи юношам, чем девушкам, и в большей степени проявляются у студентов гуманитарных специальностей, чем естественно-научных. Возраст оказывает влияние на склонность к недобросовестным практикам только в группе более зрелых респондентов с повышенной самооценкой. Результаты могут быть применены при дальнейших исследованиях взаимосвязи характеристик людей, определяющих особенности их экономического поведения. Также они могут быть использованы в информационно-просветительской работе, направленной на развитие навыков эффективного экономического поведения молодежи.

Социальные стандарты и инклюзивная модель развития сельских территорий
Authors: Полушкина Татьяна Михайловна , Акимова Юлия Алеексеевна , Коваленко Елена Георгиевна
Published: May 2022

Статья посвящена необходимости применения государственных социальных стандартов жизни и жизнеобеспечения в системе государственного регулирования инклюзивного (всеобъемлющего) развития сельских территорий Российской Федерации. Содержит анализ современного состояния и сложившихся тенденций их социально-экономического развития. Предпринята попытка оценить возможности согласования инклюзивной модели развития сельских территорий и аграрной политики в рамках адекватной современным вызовам модели сельского развития страны. Аргументирован вывод о неравномерности социального, экологического и экономического развития сельских территорий страны, значительной дифференциации по большинству важнейших индикаторов развития с городами, что крайне опасно для государства, для его единства и целостности. Отправными точками этой статьи служат социальная приверженность российского государства, что определено Конституцией, и необходимость применения целеориентированного государственного подхода в политике сельского развития. Обоснована целесообразность применения стандартов жизни и жизнедеятельности в качестве инструмента определения приоритетов политики сельского развития и контроля за эффективностью ее реализации. Что, в свою очередь, будет способствовать инклюзивному и устойчивому развитию сельских территорий Российской Федерации, выравниванию социального пространства, снижению социального неравенства, концентрации ресурсов на приоритетных направлениях социальной политики, решению проблем продовольственной безопасности.
Социальные медиа как фактор формирования общественно-политических установок, российский контекст
Authors: Бараш Раиса Эдуардовна
Published: May 2022

В статье рассматривается влияние социальных медиа на общественно-политические установки граждан, политическую коммуникацию и низовой активизм. Обращаясь к социологическим данным, автор резюмирует, что регулярное общение с единомышленниками в электронных медиа прямо не влечет роста социально-политической заинтересованности, осознанности или субъектности, непосредственно не мотивирует граждан к низовой самоорганизации и социально-политической активности. Вместе с тем культивируемая социальными медиа дискуссионная культура общения, предоставляемые ими ресурсы для свободного общения формируют у регулярных пользователей интернета и социальных сетей запрос на публичное выражение взглядов, в том числе и политических, информационную открытость и коммуникативную свободу. Среди российской аудитории социальных медиа выше запрос на перемены в стране и обществе.

Восприятие цифровизации школьного образования: исследовательские результаты онлайн-фокус-групп с учителями и родителями учеников
Authors: Андреенкова Анна Владимировна , Дмитриева Елена Викторовна , Носкова Антонина Вячеславовна
Published: May 2022

Пандемия COVID-19 ускорила процесс цифровизации в школьном образовании, привела к существенной трансформации образовательных, социальных и коммуникативных процессов. Для выявления новых трендов в образовательных практиках, связанных с ними последствий и рисков проведено исследование среди учителей и родителей учеников. Данные собраны с помощью онлайн-фокус-групп, проведенных в октябре 2020 г. со школьными учителями и с родителями школьников разных ступеней обучения из разных регионов России, больших, средних и малых городов. В ходе дискуссий обсуждались характер и глубина цифровизации в школьном образовании, содержание ролей учителя и родителя, коммуникативные практики.
Анализ проводился методом категоризации высказываний информантов, выявления центральной тенденции и общего спектра мнений и практик. В результате были выделены три уровня семантико-ассоциативного пространства восприятия цифровизации в школьном обучении — базовый, средний и продвинутый. Среди наиболее серьезных рисков проявилось рассогласование нормативных взглядов учителей и родителей на свои роли, а также унифицированный подход к внедрению цифровых технологий на разных ступенях образования. Уязвимой стороной школьной цифровизации является также отношение к ней основных участников — восприятие цифровизации как фрагментарного, не имеющего конкретных целей и несистемного процесса.
На базе качественного исследования были подтверждены гипотезы о причинах негативных взглядов участников школьного образования — доминирование нисходящей модели внедрения цифровых инструментов и процессов «сверху вниз», низкая вовлеченность родителей и учителей в определение целей, этапности и конкретных форм цифровой трансформации школы. В результате недифференцированные подходы к цифровому обучению на разных ступенях малоэффективны, а часто и неприменимы. Снизить остроту рисков возможно при более поступательном подходе к трансформациям, отходе от унифицированной и разработке специфической для каждой ступени обучения модели цифровизации, учитывающей опыт и потребности ключевых участников процесса.
