Teachers' Perceptions of Public Employees' Performance Management Information System Effectiveness in Government Secondary Schools in Mzumbe Ward, Tanzania
Authors: Komba Mercy M. 
Published: December 2024

The Public Employees' Performance Management Information System (PEPMIS) was the focus of this study, which evaluated its effectiveness in government secondary schools in Mzumbe Ward, Tanzania. The study was guided by the expectancy theory that provided a framework for understanding employee motivation and behavior. A qualitative case study design was used, involving qualitative interviews with 13 teachers purposively sampled from Mongola and Mzumbe Secondary Schools. Data saturation determined the sample size. Thematic analysis was used to analyze data. The findings reveal that while PEPMIS enhances administrative efficiency and supports professional development, its effectiveness is hindered by challenges related to fairness, transparency, training, technical functionality, and network reliability, necessitating improvements for greater usability and satisfaction. Addressing these challenges through targeted interventions can enhance the system's effectiveness, user satisfaction, and overall impact on organizational performance. The study recommends training programs for teachers and school administrators, addressing technical infrastructure issues, and incorporating feedback mechanisms into PEPMIS to make it more responsive to teachers' needs and expectations. This paper contributes to the understanding of PEPMIS from teachers' perspectives. It highlights important insights for policymakers and educators in improving PEPMIS implementation and its impact on the country's education sector.

Me and You, You and Me, or the Second-Person Pronoun in Nathaniel Hawthorne’s “The Haunted Mind”
Authors: Préher Gérald 
Published: December 2024

ABSTRACT
Considered an autobiographical sketch like “Sunday at Home,” and “The Village Uncle: An Imaginary Retrospect,” “The Haunted Mind” is singular in the way it is narrated. Unlike the other two sketches, which both have a first-person narrator, “The Haunted Mind” is told in the second person—a rather original choice at the time Hawthorne was writing and clearly an “arresting narrative experiment,” as Michael Dunne puts it. For a 1994 issue of Style, Monica Fludernik put together a list of second-person narratives that makes it clear that Hawthorne was innovative when he set out to write “The Haunted Mind” and publish it in 1835. Hawthorne’s sketch is thus “the first ‘real’ case of a second-person text in the modern sense of the term,” and clearly the very first short text to make use of the second person. From the way it is designed, the text is akin to dramatic monologue in that it conjures up ghosts and introduces an other you through dream visions.
Reading the Gothic Wilderness: Teaching “Young Goodman Brown” with Stephen King’s “The Man in the Black Suit”
Authors: Burger Alissa 
Published: December 2024

ABSTRACT
Nathaniel Hawthorne’s short story “Young Goodman Brown” (1835) combines the ecoGothic horror of the forest with the internal turmoil of Young Goodman Brown’s complex and contested perceptions. A range of short stories and novels have been inspired by Hawthorne’s tale of Young Goodman Brown’s ill-fated adventure, one of which is Stephen King’s award-winning “The Man in the Black Suit” (first published in The New Yorker in 1994; collected in King’s Everything’s Eventual in 2002). This article provides an overview of how the author has used these stories in literature courses to introduce students to literary terminology, close reading, and analysis, as well as specific elements of Hawthorne and larger Gothic tradition. Reading these Hawthorne and King stories together highlights the lasting influence of Hawthorne’s “Young Goodman Brown” on the contemporary Gothic tradition, as well as the way these tropes have been negotiated and reimagined through King’s work.

El decir de las cosas: Manipulaciones del objeto en la visualidad contemporánea
Authors: Gárate Chateau Rodrigo 
Published: December 2024

Las artes visuales del siglo xx focalizaron una buena parte de sus esfuerzos en su propio lenguaje. Al concentrarse en las significaciones aumentaron sus repertorios posibles, asimilando lo ya hecho, no solo como un objeto que precede al trabajo creativo del artista —un objeto no creado por él— sino que además, y por sobre todo, como un hecho significativo, portador de un sentido ya disponible dentro del andamiaje social. En esta dinámica, los objetos cotidianos adoptaron un papel crucial, porque ellos mismos, en su sobreabundancia artefactual, se implicaron escalonadamente en la vida cotidiana. Al interactuar con los modos de convivencia humana, modelaron también nuestras formas de ver y actuar (Appadurai, 1991), permitiendo que se manifestaran como un amplio repertorio de imágenes visuales de significaciones potenciales para el decir sobre nuestros contextos sociales y culturales.
Este artículo desarrolla una breve aproximación histórica de la presencia de los objetos en las artes y otras disciplinas afines, para luego proponer una serie de categorías recurrentes dentro de las operatorias de manipulación del objeto en la visualidad contemporánea. Para estos objetivos, este trabajo se apoya en un cuerpo de literatura proveniente de la historia y teoría del arte, la estética y los estudios culturales.
La importancia del diseño para mujeres en el comercio informal
Authors: Reséndiz Ximena , Cortés-Chávez Fabiola 
Published: December 2024

El comercio informal en México representa un componente esencial de la economía, ya que genera empleo e ingresos para sectores vulnerables. Este estudio se centra en las “nenis”, emprendedoras que utilizan plataformas digitales para vender productos que entregan en espacios públicos, como el Parque Rojo en Guadalajara. A través de entrevistas y observación de campo, se identificaron los principales desafíos que estas mujeres enfrentan: problemas de transporte, falta de infraestructura en los espacios de venta, inseguridad y condiciones de salud precarias. Estos obstáculos no solo limitan su capacidad de crecimiento, sino también su estabilidad económica y personal.
Las soluciones de diseño emergen como herramientas clave para mejorar las condiciones de trabajo de las nenis. Las propuestas incluyen el desarrollo de sistemas de transporte ligeros y modulares, optimización de los stands de venta y creación de espacios más seguros y funcionales. La implementación de estas intervenciones tiene el potencial de aumentar la productividad de las nenis, profesionalizar sus negocios y mejorar su calidad de vida. Al integrar un enfoque de diseño centrado en el ser humano, se busca no solo resolver barreras logísticas, sino también empoderar a estas mujeres, transformando sus operaciones diarias en un entorno más eficiente, seguro y próspero.

Published: December 2024

Malnutrition in school-going children may be attributed to non-communicable diseases, psychological distress, and inadequate living standards. To address this issue, it is imperative to implement an intervention program aimed at enhancing understanding of nutrition education. The study aims to introduce the Kolar Nutrition Education Intervention Programme (KNEIP) to children and assess their knowledge. A total of 418 schoolchildren from urban and rural areas participated in this study. The experimental group comprised of 237 participants, whereas 181 children who did not partake in the nutrition education package served as controls. The intervention program was conducted over five weeks, featuring five sessions that covered various topics related to nutrition. Teaching strategies and activities employed during the intervention included small group discussions and group work. Only 3.3 percent of the study participants achieved a fair score (50-75% of answers were correct) in the pre-intervention phase, which encompassed all sessions combined. However, this percentage rose to 50.6% following the implementation of the intervention (P<0.0001). The study also revealed that 17.0% of the participants were overweight, while 10.9% were obese. This research demonstrates that a school nutrition intervention program can yield positive outcomes in enhancing the nutrition knowledge of school children.

Published: December 2024

Góc nghiêng trục chân vịt là một trong những thông số quan trọng ảnh hưởng đến tốc độ của tàu thủy nói chung và tàu cá nói riêng. Nghiên cứu này thực hiện đánh giá ảnh hưởng của góc nghiêng trục chân vịt đến vận tốc của tàu cá vỏ composite thông qua mô hình thực nghiệm. Mẫu tàu cá được lựa chọn để chế tạo mô hình và thử nghiệm là mẫu tàu có kích thước: dài 24m, rộng 6,5m và cao 3,5m. Tàu mô hình được chế tạo theo tỷ lệ 1:12 (nhỏ hơn 12 lần) so với tàu thật. Vật liệu để chế tạo tàu mô hình là vật liệu composite (nhựa polyester và sợi thủy tinh). Tàu mô hình được thiết kế sao cho trục chân vịt có thể điều chỉnh góc nghiêng từ 0o đến 15o. Mô hình được chạy thử nghiệm để đo vận tốc ứng với các góc nghiêng khác nhau. Kết quả thử nghiệm cho thấy vận tốc tàu thay đổi khá lớn khi góc nghiêng tăng từ 0o đến 15o. Trong đó, vận tốc đạt giá trị cao nhất (đạt đến 3,05hl/h) khi góc nghiêng trục đạt 6o và 7o. Khi góc nghiêng tăng từ 9o đến 15o, vận tốc tàu giảm rất mạnh.
Từ khóa: Tàu cá vỏ composite; mô hình tàu; góc nghiêng trục chân vịt; vận tốc.
Two Episodes of Postpeak Metamorphic High- to Moderate-Temperature Orogenic Gold Mineralization at Danba, Southwest China: Timing and Fluid Source Constraints from Thermodynamic Modeling and U-Pb, Re-Os, and S Isotopes

Abstract
Orogenic gold deposits are unique in that they formed at a wide variety of crustal depths from deeply sourced fluids. They are enigmatic in terms of their timing relative to crustal peak metamorphism and the coexistence of both high-T (temperature) and medium-T mineralization. The hypozonal Danba gold deposit in southwestern China provides an important opportunity to investigate both the depth and timing of formation of gold mineralization. In situ U-Pb dating on monazite from distal garnet-biotite-schist wall rocks combined with thermodynamic modeling reveal an age of 201.1 ± 1.4 Ma for the peak metamorphism at amphibolite facies, with up to ~5.0 wt % H2O loss. Also identified are two subsequent regional-scale fluid modification events at ~194 and ~187 Ma, compatible with the timing and pressure-temperature (P-T) conditions of two gold mineralization episodes in the deposit. High-precision Re-Os dating on molybdenite from high-T ore assemblages hosted in shear fractures at depths of ~16 to 20 km yields ages between 194.8 ± 0.3 and 193.3 ± 0.3 Ma, whereas molybdenite from later medium-T ore assemblages hosted in extensional joints provides ages of 190.9 ± 0.3 to 186.0 ± 0.3 Ma. The Danba gold deposit clearly formed in two mineralization episodes during rapid crustal uplift along a retrograde metamorphic trajectory, and thus the crustal host sequences that were previously devolatilized are not the preferred ore fluid source. Supporting evidence also includes systematic in situ sulfur isotope ratios of molybdenite and associated sulfides, which indicate a concentration of δ34S values of 3 to 5‰ for the two episodes of mineralization. These contrast with δ34S values of products of the regional upper and lower crustal metamorphic and granitic end members but are similar to those of sulfides from a contemporaneous potassic mafic complex. Therefore, the superimposition of two discrete gold mineralization events at Danba, due to episodic release of deep auriferous fluids, is more likely to have a similar source to the potassic basic magma, mainly derived from metasomatized mantle lithosphere. This research suggests that Danba and the giant Jiaodong gold province, among others, share common characteristics of postmetamorphic timing, primitive high oxidation state, and positive sulfur isotope ratios, which are potentially indicative of metasomatized mantle-related orogenic gold deposits. It also implies the potential for new exploration spaces in Phanerozoic orogenic gold deposits hosted in high-grade metamorphic terranes.
SHRIMP U-Pb Geochronology of the Sakatti and Kaarrekumpu Cu-Ni-Platinum Group Element Deposits—Constraints on the Timing of Fertile Magmatism in the Central Lapland Greenstone Belt

Abstract
Mafic-ultramafic rocks are challenging to date with the U-Pb method because of their low U, Th, and Pb contents, which inhibit crystallization of U-bearing accessory minerals such as zircon, baddeleyite, apatite, titanite, or rutile. However, these minerals may be present in evolved mineralized phases of mafic-ultramafic systems. We present here new SHRIMP U-Pb geochronology results for host rocks of the Sakatti and Kaarrekumpu Cu-Ni-platinum group element (PGE) deposits of the Central Lapland greenstone belt to better constrain the time of emplacement of mafic-ultramafic magmatism and the formation of associated sulfide mineralization. The two deposits yielded zircon and titanite magmatic ages of ca. 2056 to 2053 Ma, coeval with those of Kevitsa mineralized intrusion and Savukoski Group komatiitic-picritic magmatism, indicating widespread magmatic activity in a short duration event, typical of large igneous provinces. Timing of Cu-Ni-PGE fertile magmatism in Paleoproterozoic greenstone belts of northern Fennoscandia falls exclusively within a ca. 2060 to 2050 Ma bracket, therefore defining a narrow window for formation of Cu-Ni-PGE deposits. Younger ages on zircon and titanite indicate events at ca. 1.92 and 1.78 Ga, which have been related to metamorphic and metasomatic events and are thought to have remobilized and upgraded the sulfide ores.
