SEQUENCE ANALYSIS SUGGESTS POSITIVE SELECTION ON THE BOVINE PRODYNORPHIN GENE
Authors: Suqueli García M.F. , Castellote M.A. , Corva P.M.
Published: August 2021

Dynorphin A is an endogenous opioid peptide that is part of the KNDy system in the hypothalamus of mammals. This peptide acts as an inhibitor of the GnRH pulse generation, thus regulating the onset of puberty and reproductive cycles. The PDYN gene encodes the propeptide Prodynorphin, the precursor of Dynorphin A. Despite its physiological relevance, PDYN has not emerged as a candidate gene associated with puberty in genomic association studies conducted in cattle. The present work aimed to search for signatures of selection on the PDYN gene among cattle breeds. To this, the whole genome sequences from 57 samples of ten cattle breeds were used. The samples were grouped based on breed selection history and their productive differences, particularly in terms of sexual precocity. The population structure was analyzed using Principal Component Analyses. To evidence recent selection processes, neutrality tests, such as Tajima’s D and Fu & Li’s F* and D* were performed in defined functional regions of PDYN. The putative promoter of PDYN showed a population structure that is in agreement with the criteria considered to make the groups. In that region, neutrality tests were consistently negative and resulted in statistically significant for the dairy breeds. Also, these breeds exhibited less variability in the haplotype analyses than the others. The results presented here suggest that regulatory regions of PDYN could be under positive selection, particularly in dairy breeds.

Key words: reproduction; KNDy neurons; Dynorphin; signatures of selection.
ALLELES ASSOCIATED TO DISEASE SEVERITY INDEX OF MAL DE RÍO CUARTO DISEASE IN MAIZE EXOTIC GERMPLASM
Authors: Rossi E.A. , Ruiz M. , Bonamico N.C. , Balzarini M.G.
Published: August 2021

Mal de Río Cuarto (MRC) is one of the most important viral diseases of maize in Argentina. The disease severity index (DSI) allows to combine the incidence and severity of a disease in a single metric. The genotypic reaction to MRC has been extensively studied in biparental populations. However, this complex trait has not been analyzed by genome-wide association studies (GWAS). The aim of this work is to identify new resistance alleles associated with DSI of MRC in an exotic germplasm from the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT). A population of maize lines from CIMMYT was phenotypically evaluated in environments in the area where the disease is endemic. The predictors of genetic effects (BLUP, best linear unbiased predictor) and 78,376 SNP markers (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) were used to perform the GWAS in 186 maize lines. The values of variance components and mean-basis heritability suggest a wide genotypic variability in the population. The GWAS allowed to identify 11 putative QTL of resistance to MRC. The incorporation of exotic germplasm into local maize breeding programs could contribute favorably to the creation of hybrids with a higher level of resistance to MRC. The predictive ability of associated markers with MRC resistance indicates that marker-assisted selection is an advisable tool for selecting MRC resistant genotypes.

Assessing Survey Satisficing: The Impact of Unmotivated Questionnaire Responding on Data Quality
Authors: Vriesema Christine Calderon , Gehlbach Hunter
Published: August 2021

Education researchers use surveys widely. Yet, critics question respondents’ ability to provide high-quality responses. As schools increasingly use student surveys to drive local policymaking, respondents’ (lack of) motivation to provide quality responses may threaten the wisdom of using questionnaires for data-based decision-making. To better understand student satisficing—the practice of sub-optimal responding on surveys—and its impact on data quality, we examined its pervasiveness and impact on a large-scale social-emotional learning survey administered to 409,721 elementary and secondary students. Findings indicated that despite the prevalence of satisficing, its impact on data quality appeared more modest than anticipated. We conclude by outlining an accessible approach for defining and calculating satisficing for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers.
HEROÍSMO DE LA VOLUNTAD: LA DIGNIDAD HUMANA Y LA RECUPERACIÓN DEL SENTENCIADO EN EL MÉTODO APAC
Authors: Siqueira Gilmar , Pozzol Lafayette , Dantas Cachichi Rogério Cangussu
Published: August 2021

El objetivo del método APAC es preparar a las personas que cumplen una condena criminal para la reintegración en el seno de la sociedad tras el cumplimiento de la condenación. Lo que se mostrará en este artículo es que la dignidad humana, la responsabilidad, el arrepentimiento y la esperanza son elementos fundamentales en la vida humana. Para tal objetivo, se analizará primeramente el ejemplo de Ramón, personaje de la novela La fiel infantería. Partiendo de él, se buscará ver lo que el filósofo José Ortega y Gasset entiende por heroísmo en la voluntad humana. Seguidamente, se abordará la dignidad humana y la posibilidad de despersonalización en un diálogo entre Ortega y Julián Marías. Para terminar, se verá cómo el método APAC, mediante el reconocimiento de la dignidad humana y con estímulo al heroísmo de la voluntad, promueve la plena recuperación de las personas condenadas. Tal recuperación ocurre cuando el ser humano es valorado en todas sus dimensiones y se convierte en protagonista de la propia vida en el ejercicio de la voluntad heroica.
DOCTRINA SOCIAL DE LA IGLESIA CATÓLICA: TRASCENDENCIA Y DERECHO EN EL CONCEPTO DE LA DIGNIDAD HUMANA
Authors: Pires Adão de Souza , Pozzoli Lafayette , Siqueira Gilmar
Published: August 2021

El presente artículo trata de la cuestión de la dignidad de la persona humana desde la óptica trascendente de su concepto. Eso quiere decir que, encontrado un concepto firme y sólido para la dignidad de la persona humana, sea por la Doctrina Social de la Iglesia, sea por la doctrina del derecho civil, tales instituciones no se pararon en el concepto a que llegaron en el transcurso de la historia, aunque el concepto se haya manifestado como completo, profundo y necesario. Por consiguiente, ambas instituciones fueron más allá de su propia doctrina y dejaron un legado todavía superior al concepto de dignidad humana. La Doctrina Social de la Iglesia llega a la trascendencia de su concepto añadiendo elementos sobrenaturales profesados por la fe católica. El derecho, partiendo del principio del derecho a la vida como origen de todos los demás derechos, presenta un concepto de persona que sobrepasa la individualidad y proyecta hacia la sociedad una elaboración de principios que muestran que la persona humana es superior a cualquier otra consideración social; y no es la sociedad la que da dignidad a la persona, sino que la persona humana es quien orienta la sociedad en la consecución del bien común y en la garantía de los derechos individuales. La metodología de esta investigación fue una búsqueda bibliográfica y documental por el método analítico-comparativo.

Authors: Paz Panduro Moisés N.
Published: August 2021

La pandemia de la COVID-19 fue y es un duro golpe para el mundo y para nuestro país. Es en este sentido que el Presidente de la República decretó el estado de emergencia nacional, en este contexto nuestro país ha devenido en emblemático para contemplar el denigrante sistema penitenciario y apreciar los problemas estructurales e inhumanos que existe en él. Cabe agregar que precisamente por este motivo se amotinaron los internos de diferentes cárceles del Perú, pidiendo que el Estado les brinde medicinas, el espacio adecuado para evitar contagios, las mascarillas, entre otros. Así, los internos sentenciados y los que se encuentran con prisión preventiva se encuentran en las mismas condiciones infrahumanas. Como respuesta a tal emergencia sanitaria, se promulgaron los Decretos Legislativos N. 1513 y 1514, con el fin de deshacinar los establecimientos penitenciarios y salvaguardar la integridad, vida y salud de los reclusos condenados y no condenados. El propósito de este artículo es apreciar que, pese a existir normas e intenciones, en realidad los operadores de justicia no tienen interés en hacer respetar los derechos humanos de los internos de las cárceles.

Teaching a language is a scientific process to give knowledge of language to the students in order that the students enable to communicate through in written and spoken form with one another. The students are able to communicate in spoken and written English accurately, fluently and in good manners. Managing a class full of students is one of the biggest challenges faced by teachers. If teachers do not have an effective plan in place, there will not be much opportunity for students to engage in meaningful learning experiences. Thus, teachers will find themselves refereeing instead of teaching. Classroom management is a term used by teachers to describe the process of ensuring that classroom lessons run smoothly despite disruptive behavior by students. Classroom management means teachers’ strategies to create and maintain an orderly learning environment and discipline means teachers’ responses to students’ misbehavior. The goal of classroom management is to create and maintain a positive, productive learning environment, to support and foster a safe classroom community, to assist students to keep task focused, to reduce distraction from learning, to organize and facilitate the flow of learning activities and to help the students to manage them. This is part want to analysis the video taken from YouTube; focus on native or first language in English language teaching on senior high school level.

Published: August 2021

This paper proposes a new optimization framework for NOMA-enabled cooperative vehicular network. In particular, we jointly optimize the vehicle paring, channel assignment, and power allocation at source and relaying vehicles. The objective is to maximize the sum rate of the system subject to the power allocation, minimum rate, relay battery lifetime and successive interference cancellation constraints. To solve the joint optimization problem efficiently, we adopt dual theory followed by Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions, where the dual variables are iteratively computed through sub-gradient method. Two less complex suboptimal optimization schemes are also presented as the benchmark cooperative vehicular schemes.
Special education teachers in training and ethical competence development. An exploration at the University of Sassari
Authors: Calidoni Paolo , Dettori Filippo , Manca Giusy , Pandolfi Luisa
Published: August 2021

In school contexts, ethical competences are crucial in order to make the teacher able to manage the class dynamics and the relationships with families and colleagues. These competences are all the more necessary to the special education teacher. These competences are neither specified nor defined at regulatory and teacher training level; nevertheless, they are transversally present in many of the skills required to the special education teacher. This paper describes an exploratory research carried out at the University of Sassari in the context of a national research project on moral education in lower secondary school. The aforementioned exploratory research aims to assess the point of view of special education teachers during their training, in order to define adequate training strategies for the development of ethical, reflective and argumentative skills. On the basis of the results, guidelines were set for a training course that is being currently in test phase.

Particolare rilevanza assume per l’insegnante specializzato per le attività di sostegno didattico agli alunni con disabilità. I decreti ministeriali non individuano in modo esplicito questa competenza, che appare come trasversale a molte delle abilità considerate centrali per il profilo dell’insegnante di sostegno. Il presente contributo descrive una ricerca esplorativa realizzata presso l’Università di Sassari, nell’ambito di un PRIN sull’educazione morale nella scuola secondaria di primo grado, che ha la finalità di ascoltare il punto di vista degli insegnanti di sostegno in formazione per definire adeguate strategie formative per lo sviluppo di competenze etiche, riflessive ed argomentative. Gli esiti emersi sono alla base di un percorso formativo in corso di ’prova’ sul campo.

Published: August 2021

Project design is a fundamental element within educational contexts. Plus, it is a core competence that should be part of the baggage of those working in education and learning, along with evaluative and empirical skills. Involving adherence to the context while maintaining a certain methodological rigor, it is considered important ensuring the achievement of development goals in childhood and adolescence. This intervention offers an innovative approach based on the application of pedagogical methods and practices close to the cultural context of the individuals, taking as reference the adolescent beneficiaries of an educational center in an urban area. The idea is to set up a educational street practice through Hip-Hop Based Education, a set of practices that incorporate the creative elements of hip-hop culture into teaching.

I know You got soul. Percorsi di Educativa di Strada basati sulla pedagogia Hip-Hop

La progettazione è un elemento fondamentale all’interno dei contesti educativi nonché una competenza cardine che dovrebbe far parte del bagaglio di coloro che operano in ambito educativo e formativo, insieme a quella valutativa ed empirica.

Questa proposta d’intervento offre un approccio innovativo e improntato all’applicazione di metodi e pratiche pedagogiche vicine al contesto culturale degli individui, prendendo come riferimento i beneficiari pre-adolescenti e adolescenti di un centro educativo in un’area urbana. L’idea è imbastire un intervento di educativa di strada mediate la Hip-Hop Based Education, un insieme di pratiche che incorporano gli elementi creativi della cultura hip-hop nell’insegnamento. I giovani vengono così stimolati a stabilire una connessione con i contenuti trattati incontrandoli nel proprio territorio culturale, educando attraverso le proprie realtà ed esperienze.

Pedagogical professions. In support of a green and human transition
Authors: Sandrini Simona
Published: August 2021

An increasing number of initiatives related to Agenda 2030 are being launched. Educators, trainers and teachers are dedicated themselves to interpret the approach to sustainability in light of the climate crisis and within the planetary boundaries. Looking toward the future, the pedagogical professions in their core can help the younger generation to recompose the prospective of “global human”, avoiding the risk of flattening sustainability on purely functional devices that forget the value and relational texture of human dignity. Coordinating experiences is crucial to support a transition both green and human. This means preparing fraternal training environments in which young people experience the culture of relation and proximity, with the intent of realising the sustainable development goals. This contribution presents a laboratory of dialogue on the paradigmatic union between sustainable development and fraternity, experience by young university students.

 

Professioni pedagogiche. A sostegno di una transizione verde e umana

Si moltiplicano le iniziative nel solco dell’Agenda 2030. Educatori, formatori, pedagogisti e insegnanti sono impegnati a interpretare l’accostamento alla sostenibilità, tra l’allarme della crisi climatica e dentro i confini planetari. Volgendosi verso orizzonti di senso, le professioni del pedagogico possono aiutare le giovani generazioni a ricomporre un intero umano, evitando il rischio di appiattire la sostenibilità su dispositivi puramente funzionali che dimenticano la valenza e la trama relazionale della dignità umana. Coordinare esperienze in questa chiave di sostegno a una transizione che sia al contempo verde e umana, può significare predisporre ambienti formativi fraterni in cui i giovani sperimentino la cultura dell’incontro e della prossimità, anche per avverare i sustainable development goals. Il contributo presenta un’esperienza di laboratorio vissuta in mezzo a giovani studenti universitari, di dialogo sul connubio paradigmatico tra sviluppo sostenibile e fraternità.
