Do Brasil à Moçambique: um olhar da participação popular na luta pelo direito à cidade
Authors: Ali Miguel Abudo Momade 
Published: March 2024

As cidades do mundo uma reprodução consolidada pelo modelo neoliberal, carregando consigo uma colonização da terra urbana e da habitação como um capital financeiro, fazendo com que as cidades deixem de desempenhar a sua função de espaço social e passem a ser um potencial ativo financeiro. Este arquétipo de pensar e reproduzir as cidades, as colocam numa situação de capturadas, manipuladas e reorganizada para atender os interesses mercadológicos. Quando temos a produção desta cidade oculta, igualmente estamos perante a um grupo de cidadãos que lhe são excluídos de usufruir do Direito à cidade.O objectivo do estudo, de perceber como é que o Brasil e Moçambique por meio da participação popular/movimentos lutam para o Direito a Cidade. Buscando uma reflexão entorno de algumas diferenças e semelhanças entre estes dois contextos no âmbito da participação popular da luta pelo Direito a Cidade. Metodologicamente o artigo assenta-se numa abordagem qualitativa comparativa.O resultado aponta para a necessidade dos cidadãos se imporem e conquistarem os espaços de tomada decisão para alcançar o Direito à Cidade; a necessidade de mobilização e publicação dos conceitos do Direito a Cidade tanto para os cidadãos, para os movimentos sociais, e para as universidades como forma de apropriação deste direito.

SPK is an implementation of decision-making theories that have been introduced by sciences such as operations research and management. However, in DSS itself, a method or basis for a decision is needed which is to be established as a reference for an explanatory formula that is relevant to the running of a decision to be reached. A decision support system (DSS) is a decision support system that can assist in handling or solving problems in a company or in a daily environment, in determining a problem we need data that we will take in a company or in an environment. . In writing this is an example of a problem that is happening with the case study of the Best Market Place Application Selection in the city of Medan, therefore the author uses a method that will be able to find alternative data, therefore the author creates a decision support system that will be able to determine the best market place application assessment process in the city of Medan. This decision support system was created using the TOPSIS method with ROC weighting where this method can be used or can be used as a reference in determining a problem because it aims to find out how many of the Best Market Place Application Names in Medan City are Frequently Used, after being tested try to give a weight value to the criteria and it can be modified which aims to find out how many criteria will be added in each criterion that has its own weight value and after that a ranking is made called the ranking can already determine the best application in the city of Medan, namely ( T4) Shopee with a score of 2,219. So because of this it was confirmed or very easy for the team to select in the decision making and was selected as the Best Market Place Application in the city of Medan.

Published: March 2024

The main aim of the study was to assess the physical activity among adolescents of Pune City. For this study total 500 students were randomly selected from Pune city. The subject’s age was ranged in between 13-17 years. For the purpose of collecting the data the researcher used and selected International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) is a widely used instrument for assessing physical activity levels in various populations by (Craig et al., 2003). The questionnaire is divided into four domains. These are Leisure-Time Physical Activity: Activities during discretionary time, such as sports, exercise, and recreational activities. Occupational Physical Activity: Activities related to work or employment. Transportation Physical Activity: Activities related to commuting, such as walking or cycling. Household and Garden Physical Activity: Activities related to household chores and gardening. Data were measured by IPAQ questionnaire which is used to calculate the total metabolic equivalent of task (MET) minutes per week. MET is a unit that represents the energy expenditure of an activity relative to resting metabolic rate. MET values are assigned to different levels of physical activity intensity (e.g., walking, moderate-intensity activities, vigorous-intensity activities), and the total MET minutes per week are calculated by multiplying the duration and frequency of each activity. Percentage was used as a statistical tool analyses the data. The result of the study revealed that students 57.6% (288) are less involved in physical activity, where as 23.4% (117) students are moderately involved in physical activity and 19% (95) students are highly involved in physical activity.
Consciousness and Commodity: Towards A Critical Theory of Genre in American Popular Music
Authors: Glick Isaiah 
Published: March 2024

Genre, particularly in the popular music industry, can be understood as a perpetual cycle – from the origin of a new sound or ‘scene,’ recognition by critics and tastemakers, commercialization as a canonized genre, and finally its rejection and/or reinvention by a new generation of artists seeking to establish their own new forms. In America, these musical communities have been most often grounded in racial, regional, or sexual preference identities, as these ties have been the most meaningful to listeners. Over time, the reactionary resistance of these artistic communities and practices produces music that is itself codified as a new product line, confirming the relentless cycle of genre. In this paper, I utilize three case studies ranging from the fabrication of ‘hillbilly’ music in the 1920s, Disco Demolition Night and resistance to the popularity of disco in the late 1970s, and the rise and popularization of hip hop in the 1980s help show different moments on the cycle of genre creation and the resistance that emerges. Finally, this paper will point to indications that the advent of streaming music is leading to the obsolescence of the traditional production of genre.
We are witnessing the rapid rise and fall of new musical non-genres, epitomized by hyperpop, a ‘genre’ that lacks any core common attributes. If genre is a tool to construct the self and, at times, enable communities of resistance, a world without lasting musical genres presents implications and challenges for the future of identity and social change.

Published: March 2024

El presente estudio tiene como propósito analizar la evaluación de los aprendizajes en estudiantes centrada en el desarrollo de competencias en ciencias naturales, se desarrolla en el nivel de educación básica secundaria en instituciones públicas de la localidad tres del municipio de Santa Marta, departamento del Magdalena (Colombia). La investigación se ubica en el paradigma cualitativo interpretativo, de tipo descriptiva y responde al método fenomenológico. Para la recolección de información se utilizaron dos técnicas: entrevista semiestructurada y grupo focal, por lo cual se aplicaron un guion de preguntas abiertas y una guía predeterminada, respectivamente. Los autores que sustentan el estudio: Mosquera (2020), Maestre (2017), Raven (2018), Rodríguez, Mendoza y Cargua (2019), Amor, y Serrano (2018), Zornoza-Gallego y Vercher (2021). El análisis de los datos se hizo a través de la triangulación de éstos, en torno a las subcategorías: concepción, características, estrategias metodológicas y las integradoras, evaluación sumativa y formativa, correspondiente a la categoría evaluación de los aprendizajes centrada en el desarrollo de competencias. Los resultados dan cuenta de algunas debilidades y falencias en el personal docente relacionadas con la poca claridad y escasos conocimientos sobre nociones evaluativas de aprendizajes por competencias. Como conclusión se determinó que existe mayores privilegios para aplicar la evaluación cuantitativa más que la cualitativa, lo que dificulta la evaluación del proceso evaluativo, en el área de ciencias naturales. Se recomendó abrir espacios de diálogos, esencialmente entre los directivos docentes y docentes del área de ciencias naturales y la participación de otros educadores interesados en la temática.

Streaming services consumer behaviour: a Netflix user case study in Brazil and Portugal
Authors: Oliveira Alan De Freitas Oliveira Freitas , Azevedo Ana Isabel Rojão Lourenço Azevedo Rojão , Silva Selma Maria 
Published: March 2024

ABSTRACT
The development of the Internet in the 1990s favoured the emergence of electronic commerce. Since then, streaming services have been gaining space, like Netflix. In Brazil and Portugal, the company's popularity is remarkable. Thus, the objective of this study is to understand the behaviour of Netflix consumers in both countries. This study has as methodology the case study. The data collection was done through a digital questionnaire made available to the Brazilian and Portuguese public. The valid answers of this sample (210 Brazilians and 38 Portuguese) were analysed in a quantitative-qualitative approach using descriptive statistics and content analysis. The results indicate that Brazilians use Netflix more than the Portuguese. It influenced Netflix's signature, family members of clients in Brazil and friends of clients in Portugal. The most watched content in both countries is serial, and the kind of action is preferred by users, who watch the work on weekends, via broadband, through Smart TV. Customer satisfaction levels in both countries are high, never had problems with the company and would indicate the service to others.

Flash flood detection via copula-based intensity–duration–frequency curves: evidence from Jamaica
Authors: Collalti Dino , Spencer Nekeisha , Strobl Eric 
Published: March 2024

Abstract. Extreme rainfall events frequently cause hazardous floods in many parts of the world. With growing human exposure to floods, studying conditions that trigger floods is imperative. Flash floods, in particular, require well-defined models for the timely warning of the population at risk. Intensity–duration–frequency (IDF) curves are a common way to characterize rainfall and flood events. Here, the copula method is employed to model the dependence between the intensity and duration of rainfall events flexibly and separately from their respective marginal distribution. Information about the localization of 93 flash floods in Jamaica was gathered and linked to remote-sensing rainfall data, and additional data on location-specific yearly maximum rainfall events were constructed. The estimated normal copula has Weibull and generalized extreme value (GEV) marginals for duration and intensity, respectively. Due to the two samples, it is possible to pin down above which line in the intensity duration space a rainfall event likely triggers a flash flood. The parametric IDF curve with an associated return period of 216 years is determined as the optimal threshold for flash flood event classification. This methodology delivers a flexible approach to generating rainfall IDF curves that can directly be used to assess flash flood risk.
Comparison of surface-wave techniques to estimate S- and P-wave velocity models from active seismic data
Authors: Khosro Anjom Farbod , Adler Frank , Socco Laura Valentina 
Published: March 2024

Abstract. The acquisition of seismic exploration data in remote locations presents several logistical and economic criticalities. The irregular distribution of sources and/or receivers facilitates seismic acquisition operations in these areas. A convenient approach is to deploy nodal receivers on a regular grid and to use sources only in accessible locations, creating an irregular source–receiver layout. It is essential to evaluate, adapt, and verify processing workflows, specifically for near-surface velocity model estimation using surface-wave analysis, when working with these types of datasets. In this study, we applied three surface-wave techniques (i.e., wavelength–depth (W/D) method, laterally constrained inversion (LCI), and surface-wave tomography (SWT)) to a large-scale 3D dataset obtained from a hard-rock site using the irregular source–receiver acquisition method. The methods were fine-tuned for the data obtained from hard-rock sites, which typically exhibit a low signal-to-noise ratio. The wavelength–depth method is a data transformation method that is based on a relationship between skin depth and surface-wave wavelength and provides both S- and P-wave velocity (Vs and Vp) models. We used Poisson's ratios estimated through the wavelength–depth method to constrain the laterally constrained inversion and surface-wave tomography and to retrieve both Vs and Vp also from these methods. The pseudo-3D Vs and Vp models were obtained down to 140 m depth over an area of approximately 900 × 1500 m2. The estimated models from the methods matched the geological information available for the site. A difference of less than 6 % was observed between the estimated Vs models from the three methods, whereas this value was 7.1 % for the retrieved Vp models. The methods were critically compared in terms of resolution and efficiency, which provides valuable insights into the potential of surface-wave analysis for estimating near-surface models at hard-rock sites.
