Toward a new energy paradigm in geography: revisiting the curriculum and teaching practices
Authors: MAŽEIKIENĖ NATALIJA , Norkutė Odeta 
Published: June 2021

Aim. The aim of the article is to investigate how energy topics are presented in the geography curriculum in Lithuania and how school geography becomes an educational response to the current global challenges related to energy production and consumption.
Methods. The article presents research using several methods: review of literature on energy geography and energy literacy, analysis of Lithuanian national curriculum for geography, content analysis of 14 geography textbooks for forms 6–12, expert interview with 9 geography teachers.
Results. The empirical research reveals that the national curriculum and textbooks still represent the old energy paradigm with a profound focus on fossil fuel and nuclear energy resources. Meanwhile, the new energy paradigm is realised in the teaching of experienced and qualified teachers who, in addition to the new green energy economy, emphasise environmental and social issues of energy use.
Conclusions. The conclusions include observations on necessary changes in teaching energy geography: on the one hand, by revising the formal curriculum and textbooks and integrating concepts of energy literature and new energy developments; on the other hand, by initiating changes in primary and continuous teacher education. Professional development of teachers could include new energy topics, new teaching and learning sources (political debates in media, TV, strategic energy development documents), new teaching and learning strategies and methods.

Published: June 2021

Aim. The aim of the study is a description of the types of training designs, based on various classification criteria and illustrated by examples from the authors’ own practice.
Methods. We used theoretical analysis and synthesis of scientific information, as well as modelling the training structure.
Results and Conclusions. It was proposed to classify the designs of group training, depending either on the internal logic of the teaching material or on the external organisation of the training. Regarding the logic of presentation certain designs, through the analysis of existing learning approaches, are proposed of training, based on different logic: presentation of information, assimilation of information, B. Bloom's taxonomy, and competencies formation. Using these designs, it is possible to construct either the whole training or its separate parts (thematic blocks, exercises). The external organisation of the training includes design of the sum of exercises, or of a coherent story.

Published: June 2021

Thesis. The multifactor aetiology of the diseases of the digestive system is frequently connected with lifestyle, including diet, exposure to stress, and alcohol consumption. These factors are part of the modifiable factors influencing state of health, and the presentation of their influence on the pathogenesis of the diseases of the digestive system may lead to increased social awareness, improved health, and decreased healthcare expenditures.
Concept. The article is a review, presenting the results of latest research on the influence of selected behavioural factors (health behaviours) in the functioning of the digestive system.
Results and conclusion. In order to prevent diseases of the digestive system Mediterranean diet, reduction of alcohol consumption, and looking after emotional wellbeing and physical fitness are recommended. The understanding of health as looking after and enrichment of resources, rather than a lack of illness, is connected with patients’ responsibility for their own health. Frequently, it is only with the diagnosis of an illness that patients decide to change their behaviour. Meanwhile, healthy lifestyle ought also to be understood as one of the most significant elements of the prevention of diseases of the digestive system. Such understanding is part of the paradigm of behavioural gastroenterology(Jia, Jiang, & Liu, 2017), whose representatives emphasise that it is important for healthy lifestyle and psychological factors to be taken into account in treatment as well as diagnosis, rehabilitation, and prophylactics of the diseases of the digestive system.
Mocking and Making: Subjugation and Suppression of Marginalized and the Politics of Identity
Authors: Alam Sohaib , Khalid Sadaf , Ahmad Farhan , Keezhatta Muhammed Salim 
Published: June 2021

Aim. The present study aims at foregrounding the importance of language and discourses advanced to suppress the voices of dissent and minorities. The subtle art of stimulating a psychologically suppressed identity or subjective violence is either through making or mocking historical facts, cultures, and human activities manifesting the concept of authoritarian democracy. Further, the aim of the study is to grasp the sense of constraints between universality and particularity that denounces the ‘reassertion of identity,’ among Indian Muslims. Moreover, the study judiciously examines disguised ‘mechanisms’ employed under authoritarian politics, tech-populism and journalism intending to promote businesses, dissemination of misinformation and contributes to creating an apocryphal human history, social alienation, and to discrediting an individual’s spontaneity.Concept. The innate unity in a democratic society can be actualised either by envisaging or by translating the texts, thoughts, language and actions, which are altogether conceiving distinctive meanings to morality, ethnicity and culture having its relevance in the contemporary context. The paper features multiple trends/cases of how a single-party monologue has weakened pluralism along with the domination of othering the ‘Others’ under racial, cultural, and national particularism. The paper qualitatively investigates different incidents of transcreation of discourse in establishing or reclaiming the identity contextualised in Frantz Fanon’s declaration of ‘reclaiming the past.’Results and conclusion. An ingenious discussion on dynamic languages, cultures and action enriches with time and individual incidents are discussed in the study. It re-evaluates the significance of revisiting the history to reclaim, reform, and reconstruct malleable identity and ideologies that take years to build, improvise and restore diversityabove majoritarian dogmatism in India.
Originality. An inquiry into how thoughts, languages, and human action intertwined are to build a complaisant or contemptuous human identity is the idea behind the article. Indeed, the study’s originality depends on sorting and revisiting numerous dimensions of translation and transcreation of languages, linguistic structure, ideology,and political intent in recent times, either subjugating or falsifying facts against the marginalized in India. The attempt is based on analyzing how the shift in knowledge, culture and social identity construction supersede the less powerful. It is practiced through utilizing tech support, popular mass culture and evolves a discourse to manipulate andmobilize human consciousness for commercial and political gains.

Published: June 2021

The internal transport system of the body, represented by Srotamsi has been given a place of fundamental importance in Ayurveda both health and disease. Srotas are described as channels through which oozing of the fluids takes place. There are 13 srotas as described by Acharya Charak and 11 pairs as per Acharya Sushruta. Both have described the Medovaha Srotas and the vitiation of which leads to diseases of which Sthaulyata (Obesity) is one. According to Acharya Sushruta, the concept of Prakriti (body constitution) of an individual is derived by the predominance of Doshas at the time of fertilization. The entire health of an individual depends upon the Prakriti and health of a person is being affected according to it. The present study is being done to find out the basic concept of medovaha srotas described in Ayurveda whose vitiation is the cause of medovriddhi (overweight and obesity) and its relation with the prakriti. It was a clinical study conducted on total 150 cases in State Ayurvedic College and Hospital, Lucknow. The main tools used to conduct this study were the B.M.I criteria recommended by W.H.O and proforma of Prakriti Parishan. The vitiation of medovaha srotas affects all the prakriti person almost in same manner i.e., fat accumulate beneath the skinfold and thyroid hormones level has relation with overweight and obesity. However the number of kaphaja prakriti persons showed that these are more prone to develop Obesity/overweight as a result of Medovaha srotodusthi.

Published: June 2021

The acceptance of any vaccine relies on the belief and perception towards it. After a wait of almost 10 months, the COVID-19 vaccine is ready with the first phase in progress in India. The aim of this study is to assess the impact on the acceptance intentions of COVID-19 vaccine among the general population of India after the vaccine is inoculated to health care workers in the first phase. An empirical study was conducted by analyzing the data collected by a self-administered questionnaire. The various variables that were addressed were the socio-demographic variables, past behavior of participants towards such seasonal influenza vaccine, awareness about the vaccine and adoption intention post vaccination drive. Logistic regression was used to identify the association between various variables and the predicting variables for the vaccine acceptance. Majority of them were ready for the COVID-19 vaccine. However, there was a decline in the acceptance rate post vaccination drive. Age, Gender and Region were found as the major factors affecting this decision. To analyse, 1. The shift in confidence level in COVID-19 vaccine; 2. The role of Social Influence (SI) towards COVID-19 vaccine; 3. The role of past behavior towards seasonal influenza vaccines (Swine Flu, Ebola or similar) in acceptance of COVID-19 vaccine; 4. The association bet ween awareness of the COVID-19 vaccine and rate of adoption.: The study was conducted by analyzing the data collected by a self-administered questionnaire that was shared online across India in January 2021 – February 2021. The variables that were addressed through the questionnaire were the socio-demographic variables, past behavior of participants towards such seasonal influenza vaccine, awareness about the vaccine and adoption intention post vaccination drive. Associations between various variables were observed during analysis. Logistic regression was also used to identify the predicting variables for the vaccine acceptance. Statistical analysis used: Odds Ratio, p-value, logistic regression Out of 456 respondents, 59.21% were ready to uptake the COVID-19 vaccination, whereas 16.67% respondents declined to take the vaccine. There were 24.12% respondents who were not sure about the acceptance of the vaccine. Younger age groups specifically male from Northern India were more likely to accept the vaccine. The major findings of the study shows that after the start of implementation of COVID-19 vaccination drive, there is a drop in the number of people who are ready to take the vaccine as compared to the number before the arrival of the vaccine. This may lead to the conclusion that the faith of general people of India has declined in the COVID-19 vaccine post vaccination drive.

Ku nowemu rozumieniu stypendiów mszalnych
Pojęcie „stypendiów mszalnych” zostało utrwalone w długoletniej tradycji Kościoła. Ich uzasadnienie można znaleźć w liście apostolskim Firma in traditione oraz w Kodeksie Prawa Kanonicznego z 1983 r. Mimo to zrozumienie ich znaczenia nie jest jasne i często bywa mylone z kupowaniem sakramentów lub rodzajem opłaty za wykonaną usługę. Z historycznego punktu widzenia stypendium Mszy św. wywodzi się z procesji z darami podczas sprawowania Mszy św. To właśnie podczas offertorium uczestniczący w celebracji Eucharystii składali swoje dary. Niniejsze opracowanie analizuje koncepcję tzw. stypendiów mszalnych i ich ewoluującą formę w praktyce Kościoła. Autor zwraca uwagę na fakt, że ofiary składane z racji Mszy św. muszą być spójne z teologią sakramentu Eucharystii i jego ścisłego związku między celebransem a ludem wiernych. Ostatecznie ofiary te przyczyniają się do dobra Kościoła oraz uczestniczą w jego trosce o utrzymanie szafarzy i dzieł.

Published: June 2021

A prática de atividade física é importante para pessoas idosas. É importante compreender os aspectos que podem influenciar o idoso na adesão e na manutenção do estilo de vida ativo e saudável. O objetivo deste estudo é investigar os fatores motivacionais de idosos que praticam atividades físicas regulamente. A coleta de dados foi realizada utilizando-se o IMPRAF-54 (Inventário de Motivação para Prática Regular de Atividades Físicas). A amostra foi composta por idosos com idade entre 60 e 79 anos (69,3±5,4), 27(54%) homens e 19(38%) mulheres. A maior motivação para atividade física nessa população foi relacionada a saúde (38,0±3,7) e o fator mais irrelevante foi a competitividade (9,3±3,0). Uma correlação binária entre os domínios do IMPRAF-54 realizada relacionou que o controle do estresse está positivamente associado à saúde, sociabilidade, estética e prazer. A busca por melhor saúde foi maior motivador para essa população. Algumas diferenças entre os sexos foram encontradas. A competição foi relevante em idosos com idades entre 60 e 69 anos do que idosos com idades entre 70 e 79 anos. Fator motivacional mais importante foi a saúde relacionada à prática de atividade física. A competitividade foi negativamente relacionada à maioria dos domínios relacionados a IMPRAF-54.

Authors: Silva Rodríguez David 
Published: June 2021

Thraustochytridos se caracterizan por producir aceites microbianos del tipo omega 3 y 6. VAL-B1 y EMA-T5 son cepas del mismo género y aprovechan fuentes puras de carbono y residual para producir ácidos grasos poliinsaturados. Se utilizó glicerol puro (GP) y crudo (GC) para comparar la producción de biomasa y el rendimiento y producción de omega 3 y 6, usando 3 concentraciones diferentes de sustrato. Empleando 100 mL de cultivo a 25°C y 180 rpm, se crecieron las cepas por 7 días, luego se centrifugaron y cuantifico la biomasa y por cromatografía gaseosa el perfil de ácidos grasos. Los resultados muestran que EMA-T5 genera mayor cantidad de biomasa al 5 día usando 20 g/L de GC con 6,984±0,66 g/L. Respecto al rendimiento y producción de omega 3 y 6, VAL-B1 obtuvo los mejores resultados con 91,80±8,78 mg/g y 1167,71±70,88 mg/L, siendo el omega 3 más abundante, en especial DHA con 52,72±4,94 % de ácidos grasos totales (AGT). Se concluye, que EMA-T5 genera mayor producción de biomasa usando GC y VAL-B1 presenta los mejores resultados de rendimiento y producción de omega empleando GP, lo cual indica que ambas cepas, aprovechan de buena forma tanto la fuente pura como cruda del glicerol.

Objetivos: Descrever o padrão de atividade física de gestantes usuárias de Unidades Básicas de Saúde, investigar a média do gasto energético relacionados aos domínios de atividade física. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo transversal conduzido entre 799 gestantes atendidas nas Unidades Básicas de Saúde de Ribeirão Preto, SP. A prática de atividade física foi avaliada por meio do questionário de “frequencia de atividade física diária” específico para gestantes, no qual foram obtidas a frequência, duração e o equivalentes metabólicos das atividades físicas. Resultados: A maioria das gestantes apresentaram o padrão sedentário (57%) seguido pelo padrão leve (43%). Em relação aos domínios de atividades físicas, o domínio doméstico teve a maior média de gasto energético (733,7), enquanto que, o domínio de lazer apresentou a menor média (20,5). Verificou-se que as variáveis idade acima de 30 anos , escolaridade baixa , solteira, não ser chefe de família, não trabalhar fora, e ter filhos, tiveram associações com o padrão sedentário. Conclusões: Elevada prevalência de sedentarismo foi observada entre as gestantes estudadas, sugerindo a necessidade de ações de promoção de atividade física neste público, principalmente no domínio de lazer.
