Symposium 5: A Social Media Networked Learning Ecology Perspective
Authors: Bonzo Justin 
Published: October 2024

Learning Technology Professionals (LTPs) use social media as a networked learning environment (ecology) for their own professional learning. This is done through reading and contributing to blogs, wikis, Twitter, Facebook, social bookmarking, etc. The various elements of social media and the connections (people, information, resources) that link them together make up the networked learning ecology. Specifically, this research draws from the literature on learning ecologies (Barron, 2004, Brown, 2002, Frielick, 2004, Nardi and O'Day, 2000, Siemens, 2008b), networked learning (Banks et al., 2004, Goodyear et al., 2004, Jones et al., 2008, Steeples and Jones, 2002, Wasson et al., 2003), and on the growing amount of literature on social media in education. The individual concepts (social media, networked learning, learning ecology) of a SMNLE have been researched in the context of elementary and higher education, but there seems to be much less research in how these concepts individually apply to professional development and learning. Furthermore, the joint concept of a SMNLE has not been researched. In addition, there seems to be little if any research in the conception held by LTPs of the relationships, connections and links that exist in their SMNLE. By researching the conceptions of connections that LTPs hold, this research aims to add to the current body of research and provide insight into the experiences of those that are pushing the envelope about social media technologies involved in connecting with learning. The phenomenon I plan to research is that of the relationships within the networked learning ecology of LTPs. The phenomenon will be researched by looking at the variation in conception and perception of these connections by LTPs. In order to investigate the variation of meaning and ways of understanding the connections in their social media based learning ecologies, a phenomenographic approach for this research is being used. This allows for a description of the range of the perceiving and experiencing the phenomenon of learning ecology connections that LTPs experience. By using a phenomenographic approach, the research will be able to show how learning technology professionals conceive and perceive of the connections within a networked learning ecology.
Improving assessment practices - is there a place for online marking?
Authors: Raistrick Claire 
Published: October 2024

The starting point of this educational inquiry is my concern that marking is time consuming when trying to provide high quality, useful feedback to assist student learning. This poster gives a flavour of the process of creating ‘living theory' in an action research project into online marking, illustrating the energising nature of the 'action-reflection cycles'; cycles which encompass six elements: ‘observe - reflect - act - evaluate - modify - move in new directions' (McNiff & Whitehead, 2006, p.41 & 49). It may be of interest to those concerned with assessment practices in higher education regardless of whether they are currently considering online marking. Initially the purpose was to increase my knowledge of the affordances offered by GradeMark software. However, my gaze turned to the wider purpose of assessment - this was prompted by the literature, interviews with two learning technologists and one academic working at different higher education institutions in England, and concurrent marking commitments. The research question evolved from ‘How can GradeMark be used to mark assessments?' to the broader issue of ‘How can assessment practices be improved and might an online tool, such as GradeMark, assist this aim?' In interviews my sense of inquiry was ‘how can participants' practices help mine?' Emergent categories included the affordances of and barriers to using online marking, together with participants' views on resistance to online marking and what is needed for its successful implementation. The relative positions of stakeholders are illustrated in a model where academics are found to be less aligned with online marking than administrators, technologists, students and institutions. It is proposed that, grounded in their own contexts, academics should determine the pedagogical case for or against online marking and direct their practice accordingly. Without such self-determination others may discover convincing reasons to impose change, leaving academics poorly placed to muster convincing arguments for or against. Thus the pedagogical design of programmes is found to be important and suggestions for a participatory approach to develop feedback practices within a work team, prior to considering whether online marking is supportive of this, are made. The significant influence being the pedagogical design of assessment processes within a particular programme, rather than whether a specific electronic tool facilitates specific functions - though this becomes important having decided to use such a tool. Where online marking is indicated this is likely to require considerable institutional support in terms of leadership, training and technology.

Published: October 2024

Background, The problem of mothers not consistently giving breast milk is the mother's fear of the adequacy of the breast milk produced. Efforts to increase the adequacy of breast milk so that the baby's weight increases can be done with back rolling massage. Massage in this spinal area increases blood flow, provides a sense of comfort, stimulates milk production, overcomes the inactivity of breast milk production which is assisted by the baby's suction on the nipple.
Purpose, This study is to determine the effect of back rolling massage on the weight gain of infants aged 0-6 months in the Working Area of the Kartasura Health Center.
Methodology, This type of research uses Quasy Experimental with pretest-posttest with control group design. The number of samples in this study is 30 respondents. Data collection was carried out with observation sheets. The data analysis of this study was by univariate and bivariate analysis by Wilcoxon.
Results : Based on the research, the results obtained by using the Wilcoxon test obtained a value r= 0.005 for the control group and a value r= 0.001 for the intervention group, where the value value r < α (0.05) which means that there is an effect of back rolling massage on the weight gain of infants aged 0-6 months in the Working Area of the Kartasura Health Center.
Conclusion : There is an effect of back rolling massage on the weight gain of infants aged 0-6 months in the Working Area of the Kartasura Health Center.
A Contrastive Rhetorical Analysis of Hypocrisy in Christian and Islamic Moral Religious Contexts
Authors: Tariq Kadhim Al-Ameedi Riyadh , Othman Adday Noor 
Published: October 2024

Being hypocrite is to act in opposition to one's inner status. The goodness that he conveys is in contrast to the evilness that he has in his heart and intention. It is simply to be a double-faced human or a deceptive one. This study sheds light on hypocrisy as a vice. It investigates the Christian and Islamic tackle of such issue regarding its types, the rhetorical construction throughout the pragmatic strategies and the rhetorical devices that are applied.
The results reveal that there is divergence between Christianity and Islam in the thematic and formal representation of hypocrisy in their moral religious contexts. Christian contexts adopts persuasion and instruction as pragmatic strategies whereas Islamic ones resort to persuasion and hinting. The results also show that the types of hypocrisy that are highlighted vary in their type and number of occurrence.

Published: October 2024

The calves presented with abdominal affections requiring surgical interventions were randomly divided into group I and group II with seven animals in each group. All the animals were premedicated with dexmedetomidine at 2 µg/kg body weight, pentazocine at 1 mg/kg body weight and midazolam at 0.2 mg/kg body weight intravenously. In group I and group II, anaesthetic induction was carried out with propofol at 2 mg/kg body weight and etomidate at 0.25 mg/kg body weight intravenously, respectively. Both the groups were maintained in Isoflurane anaesthesia with modified oro-endotracheal tube. The cardiovascular parameters such as heart rate, mean arterial blood pressure, systolic and diastolic blood pressure were monitored during different stages of anaesthesia in both the groups. In both the groups, a significant decrease in heart rate was noticed after premedication and anaesthetic induction. A Significant increase was noticed in systolic blood pressure values after anaesthetic induction and 10th minute of anaesthesia in group I and a highly significant increase was noticed after induction up to 10 minutes in group II. A highly significant increase in diastolic blood pressure was noticed after induction and 10th minute in group I, whereas significant increase was noticed in mean arterial pressure after induction and 15th minute of anaesthesia in group II animals. The cardiovascular parameters recorded in the present study concluded etomidate produced better cardiovascular stability and minimal respiratory depression compared to propofol throughout the anaesthetic period.

Published: October 2024

The present study was aimed to know the chronic hepatitis with abdominal effusion in a beagle dog and its therapeutic management. A 2.5 year old male beagle was presented to Madras Veterinary College teaching Hospital, madras veterinary college, Chennai with the history of inappetence, abdominal distension for past 10 days and the clinical signs of inappetence, fever and palpablelymph node and congested mucous membrane. On Physical examination, dog showed respiratory distress and dull. Dog was subjected for radiography examination, haematology, biochemistry parameters and ultrasound examination. On first day of examination, dog was treated with Lasix at the dose rate of 3 mg/kg body weight, antibiotics and Tribivet injection. Hematology and biochemical values revealed neutrophilia, elevated alkaline phosphatase, total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, and decreased total protein and albumin. The lateral view radiography of abdomen revealed fluid shadow and ultrasound examination revealed that chronic hepatitis with moderate abdominal effusion. In case of clinical suspicion of hepatitis an ultrasonographic liver scan can be of diagnostic aid and the finding of an altered structure can be indicative of a liver problem. In many cases of chronic hepatitis may not be associated with ultrasound abnormalities but ascites can be easily identified. Dog was treated with antibiotic cefotaxime at the dose rate of 25 mg/Kg body weight and Lasix at the dose rate of 3 mg/Kg body weight with liver supplement of Lysibin which contain silymarin and supplement with Astymin syrup for 3 weeks. The animal was reviewed after three weeks of treatment which was subjected for haeamtology, biochemistry and ultrasound examination which revealed there was improvement in the blood parameters with decreased total protein and normal level of Alkaline phosphatase and bilirubin level and ultrasound examination revealed normal study of abdominal effusion and liver echogenicity and dog had normal appetite and normal vital parameters. In this case hepatitis may be due to any viral etiology like adenovirus that may cause hepatitis with effusion that may be respond to treatment and diuretics and brought normal parameters of vital in dog. Chronic hepatitis with effusion may be further confirmed by Liver biopsy and molecular diagnosis.

Introduction and Purpose: Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), including butyric acid, acetic acid and propionic acid, are naturally produced in the large intestine by bacterial fermentation of insoluble carbohydrates and oligosaccharides. Butyric acid, which is the main source of energy for colon cells, has regenerative, cytoprotective and anti-inflammatory effects. Its physiological importance lies in maintaining the integrity and function of the intestinal epithelium, which protects the body against pathogens and oxidative stress. SCFA deficiencies resulting from low dietary fiber supply can lead to intestinal disorders. Supplementation with sodium butyrate, particularly using micro-encapsulation technology, enables efficient delivery of butyric acid to the gut, which may be beneficial in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease and in the prevention of obesity and insulin resistance. Sodium butyrate (NaB) also has promising potential in the treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC), inducing apoptosis of cancer cells, increasing sensitivity to radiotherapy and chemotherapy and protecting healthy cells. SCFAs, especially butyrate, play a key role in reproductive medicine, oncology and gastroenterology, contributing to the maintenance of health and being potential therapeutic targets. The aim of this paper is to review the available literature on this topic.
Material and methods: The review was based on articles obtained from PubMed scientific database published from 2014-2024, using the following keywords: sodium butyrate, obesity, pregnancy, inflammatory bowel disease, colorectal cancer, SCFA.
Conclusions: Studies confirm the beneficial effects of sodium butyrate on metabolism, intestinal integrity and reduction of inflammation, opening up new possibilities in the treatment of metabolic disorders and intestinal diseases. However, further clinical studies conducted on humans are still needed, as most of the work to date has been conducted on mice and/or rats.

ABSTRACT
Mirikizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting the p19 subunit of interleukin IL-23. Over the past few years, it has been the subject of clinical trials as a potential new treatment for inflammatory bowel diseases, including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Additionally, mirikizumab has been investigated in clinical trials as a potential treatment for plaque psoriasis. The results of clinical trials for mirikizumab in treating ulcerative colitis led to its approval in the European Union, the United States, Canada, and Japan for treating adult patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis. Despite promising clinical trial results, mirikizumab has not yet been approved for the treatment of Crohn's disease. This review focuses on summarizing the findings from clinical trials of mirikizumab in the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases. Information is sourced from scientific papers available on PubMed, by searching for "mirikizumab" and “IL-23” and published to march 2024, as well as from published results of clinical trials concerning mirikizumab.

Введение. Известно, что к подростковому возрасту основные нейрогуморальные механизмы вегетативной регуляции считаются завершенными. Однако без понимания возрастной эволюции вегетативного гомеостаза дать объективную оценку соответствия его уровня характеристикам пубертатных процессов не представляется возможным. Цель исследования. Выявить закономерности динамических изменений в системе вегетативного гомеостаза у детей на этапах постнатального онтогенеза для определения степени адекватности процессов управления морфофункциональными преобразованиями периода полового созревания. Материалы и методы. Всего обследовано 145 здоровых детей: 44 подростка 13–17 лет составили основную группу, 101 ребенок от 1 года жизни до 13 лет вошли в группу сравнения. В работе использовался метод анализа вариабельности сердечного ритма. Результаты. В статье представлены данные о динамических изменениях в системе вегетативного гомеостаза, заключающихся в переходе от преобладания централизации у детей раннего возраста к доминированию управляющей автономии в подростковой популяции. Выводы. Выявленная закономерность — основа постнатального онтогенетического развития вегетативно-регуляторных механизмов по формированию оптимального уровня управления морфофункциональными преобразовательными процессами пубертатного периода.
Background. It is known that by adolescence, the basic neurohumoral mechanisms of autonomic regulation are considered complete. However, without understanding the age-related evolution of vegetative homeostasis, it is not possible to give an objective assessment of the&nbsp; correspondence of its level to the characteristics of pubertal processes. Purposes. To identify the patterns of dynamic changes in the system of vegetative homeostasis in children at the stages of postnatal ontogenesis to determine the degree of adequacy of the processes of controlling morphofunctional transformations of puberty. Materials and methods. A total of 145 healthy children were examined: 44 adolescents aged 13–17 made up the main group, 101 children from 1 year of age to 13 years were included in the comparison group. In this work, the method of heart rate variability analysis was used. Results. The article presents data on dynamic changes in the system of vegetative homeostasis, consisting in the transition from the predominance of centralization in young children to the dominance of controlling autonomy in the adolescent population. Conclusion. The revealed regularity is the basis of the postnatal ontogenetic development of vegetative-regulatory mechanisms for the formation of the optimal level of control of morphofunctional transformed processes of puberty.
