Świat „po drugiej stronie” wyobraźni. Artystyczny dialog Radka Knappa z Alfredem Kubinem
Authors: Banachowicz Joanna Małgorzata 
Published: May 2020

Przedmiotem artykułu jest wzajemna relacja literatury i malarstwa poddana analizie na przykładzie twórczości Radka Knappa i Alfreda Kubina. Radek Knapp, austriacki pisarz polskiego pochodzenia, zasłynął jako autor tryskających humorem powieści i opowiadań. Alfred Kubin, autor powieści Die andere Seite (Po tamtej stronie), za życia ceniony był przede wszystkim za swoją pracę ilustratorską. Wiele rysunków Kubina spowija mroczna aura, która żywo kontrastuje z pogodnym tonem prozy Knappa. Idea zilustrowania słowem czterdziestu jeden grafik Kubina przyświecała twórcom wystawy w wiedeńskim Leopold Museum. Opowiadanie Radka Knappa Die Stunde der Geburt / The Hour of Birth (2017) jest nie tylko katalogiem wspomnianej wystawy, ale i artystycznym dialogiem pisarza z rysownikiem oraz uniwersalną opowieścią o poszukiwaniu sensu życia.
Association Between Polymorphisms in Cytokine Gene and Viral Infections in Renal and Liver Transplant Recipients: A Systematic Review
Authors: Sakharkar Prashant , Deb Subrata , Mashayekhi Nina 
Published: May 2020

Purpose: Although transplantations are associated with an increased risk of post-transplantation infections, they greatly improve life expectancy and patients’ quality of life. Cytokine genes play an important role in the success of transplants due to their immunological functions. A systematic review was conducted to evaluate cytokine gene polymorphisms and risk of cytomegalovirus (CMV), hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections in kidney and liver transplant recipients. Methods: A systematic search was conducted using PubMed, EMBASE, Medline and Google Scholar from their inception until January 28, 2019 using appropriate key words. Review articles, case reports or series, studies conducted on non-human subjects and published in languages other than English were excluded. Data were abstracted using a standardized form. The quality of the studies included was assessed using “Risk of Bias Assessment tool for Non-randomized Studies (RoBANS)”. Results: Thirty-one studies met our inclusion criteria; populations studied were diverse with a sample ranging from 20 to 1,671. Nineteen studies evaluated Interleukin (IL)-28B polymorphism, while six studies evaluated interferon lambda (IFN-λ) gene polymorphisms and their impact on CMV, HCV, and HBV progression. Polymorphisms in IL-10 gene were investigated in six studies. Polymorphisms in IL-12B and IL-1B gene were associated with a higher risk of developing CMV infections while polymorphisms in IL-28B were associated with a lower incidence of CMV infection in renal transplant recipients. Similarly, polymorphisms in IL-28B were associated with higher liver dysfunction from HBV infection in liver transplant recipients. Studies included had low risk of bias. Conclusions: Cytokine gene polymorphisms IL-12B and IL-1B were found to be associated with an increased risk of infection in kidney transplants and IL-28B in liver transplant recipients. However, the small number and heterogeneity of studies limits the generalization of our results. Further research may lead to finding these associations in larger studies which perhaps improve the use of genetic testing and targeted antiviral therapy. This will further reduce the risk of viral infections associated with cytokine gene polymorphisms in post renal and liver transplant recipients.
Elaboration of Geotechnical Thematic Maps in Urban Areas
Authors: Monteiro António , Pais Luís , Rodrigues Carlos 
Published: May 2020

In urban areas it is difficult to access natural terrain due to strong human intervention. Therefore, any exposure of the natural terrain is considered an important source of geological and geotechnical data collection. The Geographic Information Systems (GIS) has been responsible to provide great development in geotechnical cartography, particularly in urban environment, using geographic databases and new analysis tools. Our goal is to create a geographical database that will allow and/or improve the elaboration of geotechnical thematic maps, using cartographic data of open platforms combined with free and open source GIS software. In the presented study our focus was related with the identification of the granite alteration degree...Through the geographical database, along with the geological map of the study area, the areas related to the degree of granite alteration were identified and delimited. The data were collected through “Street View” which results from the integration of a specific module in the GIS software (QGIS). The obtained data were validated by direct observation and were photographically recorded. This approach proved to be an effective method, with no significant differences when compared with direct observations. The methods’ limitations are the quality of some “Street View” images, and the existent subjectivity related to the observer in the identification of the degree of alteration of the rocky massif. Its advantage is to reduce the data collection’s time and the possibility of comparing the same place at different time points.

Authors: Mukhara Devi Kangjam , C. Singh W. 
Published: May 2020

Purpose of the Study: Organizational Climate is considered as the perception of the organization by the employees and it is one of the aspects to study the organizational behavior of the human resources in organizations. The purpose of the study is to measure the perception of hospital staff about structural organizational climate dimensions. The dimensions are formalization and working conditions.
Methodology: The study was conducted at seven select hospitals of Manipur and employed a structured questionnaire to collect data from the staff like doctors, nurses, and those who are working in the management levels with a sample size of 323. The valid data was statistically analyzed using IBM: SPSS Statistics Version 22.
Findings: The results indicated that the socio-demographic factor age is the only factor that significantly influences the variation of perception of the staff towards working conditions; while gender and educational qualification of the staff are those factors that significantly influence the variation in their perception towards formalization. Besides a staff of government hospitals have a significantly higher perception of the working condition than those of private hospitals, while staffs of private hospitals have a significantly higher perception of formalization than those of government hospitals.
Application of the study: The outcome of the research would enlighten that by giving importance to the structural Organizational Climate dimensions of the hospital structure, the behavior of the employees can be boosted which then leads to better hospital functioning. The findings would be of immense help to academicians, researchers as well as hospital administration or management for proper policy planning for efficient and effective organizational goal attainment.
Novelty/originality of the study: In this research, the model of hospital staff perception of structural organizational climate dimension is presented comprehensively and completely.

Published: May 2020

Purpose of the study: This study aims to measure the readability of Second Grade Arabic Language books in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Methodology: This paper discusses a quantitative survey conducted, based on previous studies which include Momni and Momni (2011), Nasser and Ibrahimi (2013) and Lami and Zoaeni (2014), to examine readability problems in Arabic language books used in UAE schools. The researchers developed a Cloze Test and performed the test on a randomly selected sample of 387 Second Grade students. Both descriptive and inferential statistics (T-Test, ANOVA) were analysed using SPSS version 22 and to examine the readability of Second Grade Arabic Language books.
Main Findings: The result indicates that the students’ average score in all the readability levels to the total score of the Cloze Test is at an unsatisfactory level. There are significant differences in the level of the poetic and prose texts’ readability among the genders and different academic averages.
Applications of this study: This study provides evidence that the long-term goal of the Abu Dhabi Educational Council (ADEC) has yet to be achieved. The outcomes suggest that there is a need to improve students' readability of Arabic Language books in the UAE, starting from the Second Grade.
Novelty/Originality of this study: Readability of Arabic Language Book was widely explained by other researchers, but there is no study conducted on Second Grade students in UAE.

Published: May 2020

The study investigated the difficulties encountered by Grade 11 teachers in teaching Senior High School General Mathematics, the reasons for the problems, and the strategies employed by teachers in overcoming the challenges with an end view of developing training design. The sequential explanatory mixed methods design was used in the study with the aid of a questionnaire checklist and an interview to validate the answers generated by the questionnaires. The study revealed that the challenges in teaching emerged due to time constraints and mastery issues of contents. Though teachers were pedagogically and technologically equipped to teach the course, however, some have poor time management and link to peers to share the best strategies to cope with the problems. Hence, training, as well as seminars and workshops for the unmastered competencies/contents and the competencies with no strategies applied to deal with the difficulties in teaching, are to be provided to Grade 11 General Mathematics teachers by implementing the training design developed by the researchers.

A study on the effectiveness of a teaching based on socio-scientific issues in the training of pre-service teachers
Authors: Cayci Baris 
Published: May 2020

In this study, two different learning approaches (the Toulmin model of argumentation and whole class discussion technique) to the training of primary school teachers in Turkey were tested over socio-scientific issues. On the one hand, we identified how prospective teachers experienced a change of mind on these issues before and after the training, and on the other hand, we analysed the changes on their argumentation and attitudes. In this research model, the distribution of participants is in 53 experimental groups and 52 control groups, and the group equivalence transactions are done. The study was used three different measurement tools, such as attitudes towards socio-scientific Issues Scale, argumentation test and the Teacher Efficacy Scale. The study included teaching processes based on socio-scientific issues (SSI) for 5 weeks each. Furthermore, the indecisiveness participants displayed in socio-scientific issues completely disappeared in the teaching group following the Toulmin model, and each member of this group made a definite decision on the issues covered.
Keywords: Socio-scientific issues, teacher candidates, argumentation model.

Authors: Madarova Slavka , Garcia Laborda Jesus 
Published: May 2020

Foreign language bilingual education has been common in many countries all over the world for many years after the Quebec issue in the 1970s. However, after all these years, bilingual education still remains as a criticized way of education. This research essay examined the most significant criticism by summarizing it into seven common misconceptions of the bilingual education schooling system in Spain in general education English-Spanish 1stâ€”12th grade. A lot of criticism has been directed towards the differences between regular mainstream classes and bilingual classes especially in Primary education. This paper looks at seven commonly addressed issues. The paper especially focuses on Primary education but most revision matters also relate to secondary and even higher education. Special interest is paid to cognitive, social, economic, mode of bilingual education, role of the immigrant students and parentsâ€™ attitudes. The conclusion leads to the understanding that English-Spanish bilingual education is not pernicious but, on the contrary, benefits the cognitive a linguistic development of most school children.

Procesos de educación intercultural y autosegregación indígena en los Aimaras de Puno, Perú
Authors: Bermejo Paredes Saul , Maquera Maquera Yanet Amanda , Bermejo Gonzáles Luz Yohana 
Published: May 2020

El objetivo del estudio es interpretar desde la racionalidad aimara, cómo los procesos de educación intercultural bilingüe (EIB) desarrollados en las escuelas rurales de la zona aimara de Puno-Perú, generan como resultado después de cuarenta años, el fenómeno de la autosegregación indígena. Originalidad: la autosegregación no se encuentra explicitada como meta u objetivo por ninguna política o programa EIB; es una temática nueva y vinculante para redefinir, la educación impartida en las poblaciones indígenas. Método: es un trabajo de investigación cualitativa-hermenéutica que, empleando las estrategias del análisis documental y las entrevistas en profundidad; interpreta los resultados, mediante el proceso de análisis de contenido, fundamentalmente, permitiendo establecer como conclusión que, la EIB desde la racionalidad aimara cobra solamente un valor simbólico, se percibe como un programa racista, que a través del tiempo ha provocado, un paulatino desplazamiento lingüístico del aimara por el castellano y la folclorización de la sabiduría y la cultura aimara; situación que simultáneamente, ha posibilitado la emergencia de la autosegregación indígena, como estrategia y racionalidad para redefinir la EIB, la educación en general y la subsistencia de la nación aimara.
La Educación Intercultural en la Guatemala del siglo XXI: una crítica desde la Historia
Authors: Véliz Catalán Néstor Felícito 
Published: May 2020

Objetivo: Este artículo plantea un análisis crítico del desarrollo de los procesos de educación intercultural en Guatemala confrontando los supuestos operativos de la misma a nivel internacional y la praxis sometida a las condiciones locales. Método: Utilizando un enfoque crítico y comparativo, se busca comprender el porqué, las prácticas educativas en cuestión se orientan circularmente, enfocándose en la conservación de las culturas originarias en lugar de propiciar las capacidades para interactuar con otras. Estrategias: Un análisis de los discursos oficiales y textos analíticos, ha permitido establecer que, el carácter presentado por la educación intercultural guatemalteca obedece, en la actualidad, a la sustitución de la educación tradicional, asimilacionista y absorbente, la que se plantea modificada con la vigencia de los Acuerdos de Paz firmados en 1996. Originalidad: El artículo aporta un balance crítico sobre los resultados del enfoque oficial sobre la educación intercultural, un aspecto inédito en Guatemala. Se puede concluir que la forma en que se desarrolla esta modalidad educativa obedece a un enfoque institucional que la asume como la solución de los problemas educativos de los pueblos indígenas a partir del incentivo al uso de las lenguas nativas en los espacios escolares y el rescate de rasgos culturales identitarios.
Resignificar Al Otro: Configuraciones de la interculturalidad en la formación e intervención del trabajo social
Authors: Torres Myriam Fernanda , Villafañe Gerardo Vélez 
Published: May 2020

Objetivo: Resignificar ético - políticamente la trayectoria en la comprensión del “otro” desde la formación e intervención del trabajo social, a partir del tránsito de la interculturalidad funcional hacia la interculturalidad crítica para tejer una lectura emancipadora de la alteridad que habilite la insurgencia de relaciones y subjetividades otras. Método: se recurre al análisis crítico del discurso para objetivar las comprensiones antropológicas presentes en algunos referentes teórico-conceptuales adoptados y adaptados en el proceso de profesionalización del trabajo social latinoamericano. Estrategia: Se rastrea un doble proceso de subjetivación en la formación y práctica del trabajo social, identificando su contigüidad con la interculturalidad funcional, cuya superación es habilitada por la interculturalidad crítica. Originalidad: el articulo aporta de manera original a la renovación del acervo profesional crítico del trabajo social a través del problematizar la producción de alteridades en la formación y práctica profesional, aspecto altamente relevante, pero pocas veces abordado rigurosamente. Se concluye que la interculturalidad crítica emerge a modo de categoría fundante que permite resignificar la alteridad como invención urdida en concepciones antropológicas eurocéntricas, abriendo paso a su multiplicidad y la emergencia de su potencia política, lo que involucra complejos desafíos a la formación profesional y la humanización de la universidad.
