The moral development of early childhood today is very concerning. Most children often disrespect their elders, not appreciating people who are talking, not giving answers according to questions, and often using unkind words. This study aims to instill morals and religion in early childhood. This research is qualitative research, conducted at Baiturrohmah Kindergarten and Childcare, Way Kanan, Lampung. Data was collected through observation, interview, and documentation techniques. The data is then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, namely data reduction, data presentation, and conclusions. The results showed that in instilling morals and religion in early childhood, a) Baiturrohaman Childcare provides explanations to children about love for Allah SWT and a sense of security through creation and enjoyment given to living beings, obligations and prohibitions for fellow creatures, and rewarding; and b) Baiturrohaman Kindergarten conducts ceremonial activities, physical education, kissing and caressing children, repetition in the learning process, and fulfilling children's play needs.

The role of the principal in improving human resources in schools is very important. This is because the role of a leader who goes well in schools will produce solutive policies and be able to answer the problems that exist in schools. This is the background for researchers to raise the issue of the principal's leadership strategy in efforts to develop the quality of human resources. This study used a qualitative research method with data collection techniques through interviews. Interviews were conducted with 3 informants consisting of school principals, teachers, and business administration staff. The data analysis technique used in this study is the data analysis technique with the Miles and Hubermans theory, namely by reducing data, presenting data and drawing conclusions. There are several obstacles encountered by the Pemulutan Elementary School principal in efforts to develop the quality of their human resources, including the large number of senior teachers, inadequate school facilities and infrastructure and the location of the school which is quite far from urban areas. However, the Pemulutan Elementary school principal made several strategies so that the quality of the school's human resources could increase, the things that were done by the school principal in developing school human resources were teaching material policies, opening discussion rooms, reward and punishment and conducting training and guidance for teachers to become a professional teacher and be able to keep up with the times.
ASSOCIATIONS OF FUNGI AND NEMATODES IN THE BLACK SEA
Authors: Kopytina N. , Sergeeva N.
Published: September 2023

For the first time, associations of microscopic fungi and nematodes were found in bottom sediments, periphyton and on driftwood in the Black Sea. Antagonistic relationships between microscopic fungi and nematodes are considered: fungi and fungal-feeding nematodes; nematophagous fungi and nematodes. In laboratory conditions, fungal-feeding nematodes remain viable for 1.5 to 9 months in the presence of 22 species of micromycetes from 20 genera, 11 families, 8 orders, 5 classes, and the phylum Ascomycota. The representatives of the family Halosphaeriaceae dominated in terms of the number of species in the species composition of fungi (9). Five species of fungi were found as part of the associations in bottom sediments and 21 species on driftwood. It is proved that the fruiting bodies of ascomycetes Corollospora maritima, C. trifurcata, Halosphaeriopsis mediosetigera with spores can be the only food source for nematodes Viscosia minor, Oncholaimus sp., Monhystera sp. Micromecetes Corollospora maritima, C. trifurcata, Halosphaeriopsis mediosetigera prevailed in the composition of associations on the driftwood, 16.67–20.83%. The paper presents 19 fungi which were for the first time identified in such associations. Epi- and endobiont fungi were detected during microscopic analysis of nematodes after their fixation and making constant microscopic preparations, but it was impossible to identify exactly their taxonomic affiliation. The nematode Anticoma pontica from the fouling in an underground canal inside Mount Tavros (Balaklava Bay, Sevastopol) was affected by a fungal ectoparasite similar to Drechmeria sp. (phyllum Ascomycota). The nematode Axonolaimus setosus from the sediments on the shelf of the western Crimea from a depth of 83.5 m was apparently infected with a fungal-like organism from the phylum Oomycota. Individuals of A. setosus with hyphae of fungi in the inner cavity and on the cuticle (Fungi sp.) were found in the area of the Bosphorus Strait at a depth of 250 m (hydrogen sulfide zone). The state of morphological and anatomical structures of worms indicates that they were affected by fungi during their lifetime.

The research is motivated by the limited adoption of digital learning media and the continued reliance of science instructors on printed materials like as worksheets and less interactive learning media for teaching excretion system topics. Hence, the present study was undertaken with the objective of developing educational digital media utilizing the Canva program, which would be deemed reliable for implementation as a supplementary learning tool for the excretory system curriculum. This study employs the research and development approach utilizing the ADDIE Development Model, which encompasses the Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation phases. The research employed a questionnaire as the primary instrument to assess the media validation and student feedback about the learning materials that were created. The findings of the media validation test indicated that the percentage result obtained was 75%. This suggests that the learning media that was generated is deemed legitimate for use in scientific education, specifically for teaching the excretion system topic. The assessment exam administered to the pupils yielded a score of 80.6. Based on the obtained percentages, it can be inferred that the generated learning media may be classified as satisfactory.
Text Linguistics and the Paradigm of Concept
Authors:   Azerbaijan University of Languages Candidate For A Degree, Ahmadova Narmin Arif
Published: September 2023

Text linguistics, which is one of the relevant fields of linguistics in our modern times, was born in the 20s of the 20th century and began to be formed in the 50s and 80s. As the name suggests, the main research object of text linguistics is the text itself. If we consider the word text in general, the word text can have two different meanings. That is, this word can be considered to be both in a broad sense - macrotext, and in its opposite narrow sense - microtext. The microtexts in a narrow sense combine to form macrotexts with a broad meaning. In this case, the concept of complex syntactic whole coincides with the concept of microtext. So, macrotexts are a collection of complex syntactic entities. While a single sentence expresses a complete idea, a complex syntactic whole expresses a complex idea, any particular information. Complex syntactic whole is a syntactic unit in which two or more sentences are connected by syntactic and formal relations. The group of sentences forming the basis of the text has been named by different scholars with different terms. For example, V.G. Kolshansky paragraph, I.R. Galperin, I.O. Moskalskaya discourse, K. Abdullayev complex syntactic whole, V. G. Admoni large syntactic whole and others used different terms. The term complex syntactic whole is more appropriate as the sentences in the text form certain unified whole.

Published: September 2023

The destruction of evidence in the form of narcotics is one of the efforts to prevent the eradication of narcotics abuse in Indonesia, including preventing the abuse of authority by officials who handle criminal cases and so on. One of the law enforcers who carry out efforts to combat narcotics crime is the Attorney General's Office. In carrying out the destruction of evidence obtained from narcotics crimes by the Prosecutor, the Prosecutor must comply with the procedures regulated by the laws and regulations in force in Indonesia as a legal basis for carrying out his roles and functions in order to achieve the goals and aspirations of eradicating narcotics and other addictive substances. The results of the study show that the prosecutor's authority as the executor in carrying out the destruction of confiscated goods resulting from narcotics crime is that the prosecutor has state power that is independent from the influence of government power and other powers. The destruction of confiscated goods to prevent the re-circulation of narcotics crimes in the community is to destroy the confiscated goods in the form of narcotics. Obstacles in the implementation of the destruction of confiscated narcotics crimes so as to provide the possibility of misappropriation of narcotic evidence are seen in aspects of law enforcement, if fulfilled then the law regarding narcotics crimes in the scope of implementing the destruction of narcotics confiscated goods will be considered to have been effective.

Published: September 2023

Las relaciones de género se sitúan dentro de la categoría de las relaciones sociales, y, dentro de la amplia esfera educativa, atañen al conjunto de interacciones que se establecen entre las chicas y los chicos. Para conocer de manera específica el comportamiento de estas relaciones, se requieren instrumentos de evaluación que aporten información sobre el tipo de conductas que se manifiestan, las frecuencias en las que aparecen y los ambientes en los que se producen. El presente estudio, tuvo como objetivo realizar una revisión sistemática sobre los instrumentos cuantitativos de evaluación que analizaron las relaciones de género de estudiantes adolescentes en las clases de Educación Física. Se siguieron las orientaciones de la declaración PRISMA, y la búsqueda de la literatura científica tuvo lugar en las bases de datos Dialnet, Redalyc, SCOPUS, SPORTDiscus, ERIC, Pubmed, Medline7, Web of Science y Google Scholar. Los resultados llevaron a la selección final de cinco instrumentos de evaluación divididos en dos categorías: 1. violencia de género; y 2. climas de aprendizaje. Se ha podido constatar que existen pocos instrumentos de evaluación que permitan al docente de Educación Física conocer cómo son las relaciones de género entre el alumnado adolescente durante las clases de Educación Física.
Palabras clave: Revisión sistemática, violencia, estereotipo, discriminación basada en el género, docente de secundaria, educación física.
Abstract. Gender relations are located within the category of social relations, and, within the broad educational sphere, they concern the set of interactions established between girls and boys. To know specifically the behavior of these relationships, evaluation instruments are required that provide information on the type of behaviors that are manifested, the frequencies in which they appear and the environments in which they occur. The objective of this study was to carry out a systematic review of the quantitative evaluation instruments that analyzed the gender relations of adolescent students in Physical Education classes. The guidelines of the PRISMA declaration were followed, and the scientific literature was searched in the Dialnet, Redalyc, SCOPUS, SPORTDiscus, ERIC, Pubmed, Medline7, Web of Science and Google Scholar databases. The results led to the final selection of five evaluation tools divided into two categories: 1. gender violence; and 2. learning climates. It has been found that there are few evaluation instruments that allow the Physical Education teacher to know what gender relations are like among adolescent students during Physical Education classes.

Phenolic compounds of sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] and their allelopathic effect
Authors: Storozhyk L. I. , Tereshchenko I. S.
Published: September 2023

Purpose. To establish the quantitative composition of phytochemicals containing in vegetative and generative organs of sugar sorghum hybrids with high and medium sugar content ‘Sugargraze ARG’ (Argentina), ‘Sioux’ and ‘Mohawk’ (USA) and ‘Ananas’ and ‘Medovyi’ (Ukraine) and their allelopathic effect

Methods. Allelopathic, physiological-biochemical, agrochemical and statistical methods were used. The content of phytochemicals in the vegetative and generative organs of the studied sugar sorghum hybrids was determined by the extraction method.

Results. A high concentration of sorghum phenolic substances in the seeds at the mature plant stage was found. However, their concentration was species specific and depended on their quantitative component in the process of morphogenesis of vegetative and generative organs of sorghum of different genetic origin. The analysis of the total content of phytochemical compounds in the studied hybrids showed an increase in their number at the end of the vegetation season. The research was conducted in vitro. The manifestation of phenolic compounds was observed through manifestation of the allelopathic effect of cultivated sorghum plants. It was found that on the 7th day of cultivation, the plants actively secreted phenolic compounds; the increase in the number of leaves and the height of plants in hybrids did not change and amounted to 3–5 and 1.6–2.0 cm, respectively. On the 14th day of the experiment, the phenolic spots grew significantly, and yellowing of the lower leaves appeared. In the process of morphogenesis of sorghum plants (during 21 days), a more intense release of phenolic compounds led to suppression and slowing down of growth and subsequently to the death of the clone, regardless of the genetic origin of the hybrids. Phenolic compositions also influenced the formation of the root system of cultivated sorghum plants. A significant decrease in the number of lateral roots and the length of the root system was noted in all studied hybrids.

Conclusions. The highest content of phenolic compounds was found in the seeds (grain) and stems of the studied sorghum hybrids. Thus, the quantitative composition of glycosides and tannins was 34–39 and 5.5–6.9 %, respectively, in the seeds and 25–29 and 0.3–1.4 %, respectively, in the stems of the studied hybrids. The highest content of hydroxycinnamic acids (from 7 % to 14 %) was found in the leaves of the studied sorghum hybrids. Phenolic compositions under in vitro conditions cause stress, which slows down the growth and development of cultivated plants, and subsequently lead to the death of clones.
Impacto da passagem do Sistema Solar por nuvens moleculares escuras: um caso de habitabilidade local
Authors: Leão Jurandi , Bentes Thays , Vilas-Boas Jose Williams , Wuensche Carlos Alexandre
Published: September 2023

Nuvens moleculares (NM) são regiões não homogêneas, neutras, com densidades volumétricas variando de 102 cm-3 a 108 cm-3, extinções no visível de até 30 mag e temperaturas que variam entre 10 e 100 K. O Sistema Solar encontra-se em uma bolha de plasma de baixa densidade, circundada por NM escuras distribuídas em um raio de ~ 100 pc. Em seu movimento no plano Galático, o Sistema Solar deve atravessar uma ou mais dessas regiões a cada órbita em torno do centro galáctico. Este trabalho discute o impacto do Sol estar imerso em uma NM e analisa os efeitos da radiação solar que atinge a Terra em função da densidade da região atravessada. Para densidades volumétricas da NM da ordem de 104 cm-3, a frente de ionização alcança uma região de 1 unidade astronômica (UA) em cerca de 2 dias. Se a densidade é maior do que 106 cm-3, todos os fótons UV ionizantes são consumidos em um volume esférico com raio menor do que 1 UA, resfriando significativamente a Terra em sua trajetória em torno do Sol. Se o SS entrar em uma nuvem interestelar com densidade maior ou igual a 107 cm-3 a radiação UV (que chega à Terra aproximadamente em 300 dias) será bloqueada, ou poderá permanecer nesse estado, indefinidamente, se a densidade das nuvens for maior. Nessas condições, a Terra passaria a existir em um ambiente com características do Meio Interestelar, o que teria consequências catastróficas para o clima do planeta.
Modelo de inflação: progressos e desafios
Authors: Graef Leila Lobato
Published: September 2023

Após o desenvolvimento do Modelo Padrão da Cosmologia, o Modelo do Big Bang, ao que tudo indicava, havia-se construído uma teoria satisfatória capaz de descrever a evolução do Universo a partir de um estado quente e denso inicial. No entanto, algumas questões em aberto levaram à proposta do modelo da Inflação Cosmológica, o qual descreve uma expansão acelerada no Universo antigo que teria durado uma fração de segundo, e após a qual o Universo teria seguido sua expansão conforme previsto pelo Modelo do \textit{Big Bang}. Embora hoje existam alternativas à Inflação que são capazes de resolver as mesmas questões, a Inflação foi a primeira teoria com a qual foi possível se fazer previsões consistentes sobre a estrutura do Universo em larga escala, como a distribuição de galáxias, aglomerados etc., ao fornecer uma descrição para a origem das mesmas. Neste artigo será apresentado o Modelo Inflacionário, desde uma perspectiva histórica e também matemática. Serão abordadas as críticas e desafios que acercam este modelo atualmente e também as perspectivas futuras no que se refere a testes do modelo inflacionário com os novos experimentos.
Inflação quente

A ideia original de inflação, também conhecida como inflaçãofria, surgiu para resolver uma série de problemas associados aomodelo do Big Bang. A inflação quente é uma reformulação da dinâmicainflacionária que faz uma ponte mais precisa com possíveis modelosmicroscópicos que podem levar a tal dinâmica e que possam terocorrido no Universo primordial. As conexões com a física da teoriaquântica de campos, física estatística e termodinâmica se tornammais transparentes na inflação quente, o que a torna uma formulaçãomais apropriada quando queremos comparar seus resultados e prediçõescom os dados observacionais. Neste artigo, eu revejo as motivaçõespor trás da ideia da inflação quente, sua origem por meio deprimeiros princípios e como ela fornece uma descrição que é maisconsistente, tanto teórica como observacional, do que a inflaçãofria.

Yamene (1967) formula was used to give a sample of 216 teachers. Proportional allocation method was used to identify a weighted teachers’ sample for each school. Simple random sampling technique was employed to select the participating teachers in each school. The instruments were validated through piloting and by research experts to ascertain content validity while reliability was achieved through piloting using the test-retest reliability technique. Data were coded and entered into Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 23.0 for analysis. Descriptive statistics which included frequencies, percentages, means, and standard deviations were utilized to analyze data. Inferential statistics which involved running correlation analysis at a 0.05 level of significance were employed to test the nature and strength of relationships between variables. The study used tables to present the analyzed results. The results established that there was a weak positive but statistically significant correlation between transactional leadership style and students’ academic performance (R=.428, p=.016). Based on the findings, the study recommends to the Kenya Institute of Educational Management (KEMI) and the Teachers’ Service Commission (TSC) to regularly in-service teachers on leadership styles; principals to enhance practices associated with transactional leadership practices since it improves academic performance.

Numerical optimization software for solving stochastic optimal control
Authors: Alridha Ahmed Hasan , Salman Abbas Musleh , Mousa Ekhlas Annon
Published: September 2023

Stochastic optimal control is a branch of control theory that deals with uncertain system parameters. One of the requirements for an accurate description of systems is a complete knowledge of the structure or values of the basic parameters of the system, which if achieved, the optimization process will also have accurate results. In this paper, we highlight a method for optimizing control under the control of a stochastic uncertainty approach that involves the use and dependence on uncertain parameters for systems whether they are distributed by a distribution function or within other sets of potential values by using the python language. Finally, the numerical results were implemented in python using the GEKKO package.
Simple method to extract minimal cut sets of a direct network
Authors: Fadhil Roaa Aziz , Hassan Zahir Abdul Haddi
Published: September 2023

System planning, design, and control, network reliability validation, and evaluation are critical. The enumeration of minimal cut sets (MCs) in a network is usually more complicated than the search for minimal path sets (MPs). The purpose of this research is to offer an efficient accurate approach for enumerating directed networks’ MCs. The method is concerned with determining the MCs depending on the set of minimal path nodes.
New open set on topological space with generalized topology
Authors: Gasim Suaad G. , Ridha Muna L. Abd Ul
Published: September 2023

We all know the vast number of studies that presented several generalizations of open sets in topological spaces. On the other hand, since 2002 when A. Csaszar introduced the definition of generalized topology, other generalizations of open sets have appeared in generalized topological spaces. Our study provides a new generalization for an open set, where the definition will be a mixture of ordinary topology and generalized topology. Our new open set is named Xw-open set. We give several characterizations, properties, and examples related to the new concept.

Biodegradation is a commonly used method to treat seawater polluted by petroleum. In addition to its ability to selectively degrade pollutants, it is also important to investigate the effectiveness of degradation and the benefits of restoration. This study focused on selecting a group of bacteria that can degrade diesel from marine sediment. The bacterial consortium called MB11 was found to be the most effective in removing diesel, with a removal rate of 53.77 ± 0.59 %. The consortium MB11 consists mainly of 6 types of bacteria: Enterococcus faecalis, Proteus mirabillis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Raoutella planticola, Enterobacter soli and Oceanotoga teriensis. The effective bacterial consortium MB11 was integrated with the floating MFC for electricity generation.

Published: September 2023

Presently, every individual is using digital payment platforms like Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm, Amazon Pay. Whenever a person does online transactions, he/she get coupons as a reward for couple of transactions. These coupons can vary from one another. Sometimes they are discounts or cashbacks or else vouchers. Every person who uses the digital payment systems will not be able to use every single coupon he/she received. So, instead of letting that coupon expire we are developing an android- based application, where the user can form groups with contacts of his/her choice in order to share their coupons. People can exchange the coupons among each other in the group. Also, when two people share their coupons that belong to same company, the application prioritizes and recommends the coupon which expires early. Also, to overcome the problem of a person entering details of coupons our app will remind the users to update the coupons in his profile. Also, to share the coupons which can't be directly shared a module is included such that a request message will be sent to the user and if the user accepts it can be gifted from native application
