Utilising a STEAM-based Approach to Support Calculus Students’ Positive Attitudes Towards Mathematics and Enhance their Learning Outcomes
Authors: Breda Ana , Neves António , Dos Santos José , Lavicza Zsolt 
Published: December 2023

AbstractThe curricular unit Calculus I – Extraordinary Semester (UCCISE) – was explicitly created to respond to students’ difficulties in the curriculum unit Calculus I (UCCI). Only students who fail the UCCI are allowed to attend UCCISE. Considering the enrolled students’ familiarity with mathematical software, the potential of group work to stimulate collaboration among students, and the existence of several art pieces on the University Campus, led to the proposal of a groups’ project focusing on the calculus of areas based on sections of these pieces. Hence, a STEAM approach emerged to achieve the suggested UCCISE objectives. This study aims to understand how using a STEAM approach in a higher education Calculus course could improve students’ perceptions of mathematics, promote their learning, and contribute to lower levels of failure in UCCISE, using teaching experiments as a research methodology. Four researchers were involved in this study, including the Calculus teacher, so this study has action research characteristics. The interpretive paradigm of analysis was used with the triangulation of data. The collected data come from the students’ productions, interviews, and final questionnaires. Results show that the work developed by the 35 students was relevant and should be a practice to be used in UCCI. This experience led to a reduction in the levels of failure compared to the UCCI. However, in the first years at a university level, STEAM approaches are still challenging.

Religious Belief, Occurrent Thought, and Reasonable Disagreement
Authors: Schmidt Eva 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This comment raises two worries for Crane’s view of religious beliefs and their contents. First, I argue that his appeal to inferentialism about the contents of dispositional beliefs cannot fully avoid the problem of inconsistent beliefs. For the same problem can be raised for occurrent thought, and the inferentialist solution is not available there. Second, I argue that religious beliefs differ from ordinary beliefs with respect to their justification in cases of peer disagreements. This suggests that noncognitivism about religious beliefs, which Crane opposes, is the correct view after all.
The Spectre of the Machine: Finding Space for Empirical Inventions in Patent Law
Authors: Sherman Brad 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The spectre of the machine and the mechanical jurisprudence that accompanies it have dominated patent law for over a century. This article offers three examples where we can see the influence of the figure of the machine in patent law: in the way the history of organic chemistry has been viewed, in the way that the law first interacted with biological inventions, and finally in the way that many commentators think about AI-machine generated inventions. I end by offering a different way of thinking about inventions that allows us to move beyond the spectre of the machine to give space for more speculative empirical inventions.
Non-singular Logics of Intellectual Property in Biomedical Innovation
Authors: Nadh P Omkar , Devarapalli Pratap , Balaji Sruthi 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The role of intellectual property in biomedical innovation is often construed by the source of its funding viz. public or private. While privately funded innovations are assumed to rely on intellectual property for monopolistic expansions and profit gains, publicly funded research is expected to serve the broader social good without proprietary constraints. In the light of the accumulating evidence over the last few decades, it is now understood that this causal narrative, appears simplistic. To gain a deeper understanding of innovation, whether profit-driven or socially oriented, it is crucial to examine the broader context of basic and translational research. This article investigates the management of intellectual property within two significant biomedical research funding organizations: the publicly funded United States National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the public-private-philanthropic partnership, the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI). The findings reveal that despite different claims about intellectual property strategies, these institutions exhibit similar practices influenced by the spectre of larger privatisation processes intrinsic to global market forces. This analysis suggests that a singular logic of one-size-fits-all approach to intellectual property is inadequate in promoting biomedical innovation for the greater public good.

Authors: Firdaus Mohamad Kamil 
Published: December 2023

Abstrak: Penelitian ini membahas sejarah sosial penarik becak Indramayu di Jakarta, pada tahun 1970-1990. Sejumlah masalah pedesaan di Indramayu yang dialami oleh warga Indramayu meliputi kemiskinan, modernisasi teknologi bidang pertanian, lapangan pekerjaan dan musim paceklik. Daya tarik kota menjadi magnet migrasi warga Indramayu ke Jakarta. Penarik becak merupakan pekerjaan sektor informal kota yang banyak mempekerjakan pendatang dari daerah luar Jakarta, termasuk pendatang dari Indramayu. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode sejarah yakni heuristik, kritik sumber, interpretasi, dan historiografi. Hasil temuan dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa penarik becak berhasil memperoleh penghasilan tambahan pada kurun waktu 1970-1980an. Memasuki tahun 1985-1990, ada banyak hal yang dialami penarik becak selama di sana, yakni masalah pembersihan becak di Jakarta yang diberlakukan oleh Pemerintah DKI Jakarta, mengharuskan penarik becak kembali ke desa tahun 1990, meski begitu tidak sedikit memilih bertahan mencari pekerjaan lain dan mengikuti aturan yang berlaku.

Abstract: This study discusses the social history of Indramayu becak drivers in Jakarta, in 1970-1990. A number of rural problems in Indramayu experienced by Indramayu residents include poverty, modernization of agricultural technology, employment and famine. The attractiveness of the city has become a migration magnet for Indramayu residents to Jakarta. Becak drivers are an urban informal sector job that employs many migrants from areas outside Jakarta, including migrants from Indramayu. This study uses historical methods, namely heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. The findings from this study indicate that the becak drivers managed to earn additional income during the 1970-1980s. Entering 1985-1990, there were many things that were experienced by the becak drivers while there, namely the problem of cleaning the rickshaws in Jakarta which was enforced by the Government of DKI Jakarta, requiring the becak drivers to return to the village in 1990, even so many chose to stay looking for other jobs and follow applicable rules.

DOLANDIRICILIK BENZERİ SUÇLAR BAĞLAMINDA ALMAN CEZA KANUNU §265a’DA DÜZENLENMİŞ OLAN “KARŞILIKSIZ YARARLANMA SUÇU”NA İLİŞKİN BİR İNCELEME
Authors: EKİCİ Meral 
Published: December 2023

Alman Ceza Kanunu §263a-265d arasında dolandırıcılığa benzer suç tipleri düzenlenmiştir. Bu suçların ortak özelliği, malvarlığına karşı işlenmeleri ve bazı unsurları itibariyle dolandırıcılık suçuyla benzerlik göstermeleridir.
Dolandırıcılıkla olan ilişkileri esas alındığında, Alman Ceza Kanununda yer alan suçlar üç gruba ayırarak incelenebilir.
Birinci grupta, gerçek bir kişi aldatılmadan, mağdurun malvarlığında zarar meydana gelen suçlar yer alır. Karşılıksız yararlanma ve bilgisayar dolandırıcılığı bu suçlardandır. Bu iki suç tipinde de mağdur, malvarlığı itibariyle bir zarara uğrar. Ancak bu zarar, klasik dolandırıcılık suçundaki gibi bir insanın aldatılması neticesinde meydana gelmez. Aldatılan bir makine, program veya sistemdir.
Dolandırıcılık benzeri suçların ikinci grubunu, suçun oluşması için aldatıcı davranışların yapılmasının yeterli olduğu, ayrıca bir zararın meydana gelmesinin aranmadığı tehlike suçları oluşturur. Hukuki değere ilişkin cezai korumayı öne çeken AlCK §264’te düzenlenmiş olan sübvansiyon (iktisadi devlet yardımı) dolandırıcılığı, §264a’da düzenlenmiş olan yatırım dolandırıcılığı ve §265b’de düzenlenmiş olan kredi dolandırıcılığı suçları bu grup içinde yer alır. Öğretide, AlCK §298’de yer alan “ihalelerde rekabeti ihlal eden”, kartele yol açan anlaşmalar yapılması suçunun da rekabeti sınırlandıran eylemleri cezai yaptırıma bağlayan 26. bölümde düzenlenmiş olmasına rağmen, dolandırıcılık suçuna benzediği için bu gruba dâhil edilmesi gerektiğine ilişkin görüşler vardır.
Dolandırıcılık benzeri suçlara ilişkin üçüncü grupta, AlCK §265’te düzenlenmiş olan sigorta istismarı suçu yer almaktadır. Sigorta istismarı suçunda, AlCK §263’te düzenlenmiş olan dolandırıcılık suçunda olduğu gibi bir aldatma söz konusu olmadığı gibi sigorta şirketinin malvarlığında bir zarar meydana gelmesi de aranmamaktadır. Dolandırıcılık suçunun düzenlendiği AlCK §263 ile AlCK §265’te düzenlenmiş olan sigorta istismarı suçu, manevi unsur açısından benzerlik gösterir. Her iki suç tipinde de fail, kendisine veya başkasına bir yarar sağlama kastıyla hareket eder.
Bu çalışmada; Alman Ceza Kanunu §265a’da düzenlenen, dolandırıcılık benzeri suçlardan karşılıksız yararlanma suçu incelenmiştir. Suçun ortaya çıkışı, unsurları, suç tipine ilişkin uygulamada karşılaşılan sorunlar, Alman yargı içtihatları ve öğreti dikkate alınarak irdelenmiştir. Çalışmada ayrıca, Alman Ceza Kanunu §265a’da düzenlenmiş olan karşılıksız yararlanma suçu esaslı noktaları itibariyle Türk Ceza Kanunu m. 163 ile karşılaştırılmıştır. İki ülke kanunlarında düzenlenmiş olan karşılıksız yararlana suçları arasındaki benzer ve farklı yönler tespit edilerek, Türk uygulama ve literatürüne katkı sağlanması amaçlanmıştır.
Economic Development of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China as an Inland Territory
Authors: Fartyshev Arseniy 
Published: December 2023

The Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China, like Siberia, has a special inland position. The remoteness of this region from year-round navigation seaports is more than 2,000 km, which imposes higher transportation costs for the export of goods to the world market. Xinjiang has the lowest population density in the regional structure of China, occupying 1/6 of the country; its contribution to the Chinese economy does not exceed 1.5 %. In 2001, the Chinese government announced a policy of developing the western regions to even out the territorial disparities in the country, with Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region playing a special role. The analysis of macroeconomic indicators shows that there was no significant economic growth over 2000–2017 in relation to the rest of China, but at the same time there was a significant transformation of the economy through the growth of the tertiary sector while the primary sector of the economy decreased in the number of employees and its share in the GRP of Xinjiang. A detailed geographical structure of Xinjiang’s exports for 2017 is given, showing the significant predominance of the neighboring countries — Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, which account for 80 % of the regional exports. The Russian Federation ranks third among China’s largest trading partners. The article proves that Xinjiang has a typical inland region structure focused on the export of goods with low added value, and no significant transformation of the import and export structure has occurred on its territory due to the implementation of a special regional policy for Xinjiang.
Los Hombres También Sienten: Consecuencias de la Masculinidad Tradicional en la Salud Mental y Relaciones de Hombres Ecuatorianos

Published: December 2023

El objetivo de la presente investigación fue explorar las posibles consecuencias de la adhesión a los valores de la masculinidad tradicional en el bienestar mental de los hombres ecuatorianos, sus relaciones e interacciones sociales. Participaron en este estudio descriptivo, exploratorio y comparativo 1044 hombres ecuatorianos de 18 a 35 años de edad (µ= 23.23; D.E.= 3.06), quienes completaron el Cuestionario del Estudio de Masculinidad y Bienestar. Los resultados muestran que los hombres que se identifican con la masculinidad tradicional están más satisfechos con su vida y presentan menor riesgo de depresión; sin embargo, también están más desconectados de sus emociones, presentan conductas de riesgo (accidentes de tránsito, peleas), muestran dificultades para intimar en sus relaciones personales, y tienen problemas en sus interacciones sociales en lo referente a homofobia, bullying y acoso sexual. Se concluye que el aparente bienestar proviene de la conformidad con la norma social, pero que el costo de adherir a la masculinidad tradicional es alto en el plano emocional y relacional.

Published: December 2023

Industrialization has brought several changes in the society and lifestyle. Stress and sleep plays an inevitable role in maintaining the health status of an individual. Stress has caused negative impact on physical health. Both physical and mental illness have impact on job satisfaction and it reduces work performance. Work stress has become a widespread and expensive health problem. Sleep and mental health are intrinsically connected. Less hours of sleep and poor sleep quality have influence in the lifestyle pattern. An Exploratory research design of 500 industrial workers in various industrial sectors in Tamil Nadu were chosen as the study participants. The stress levels and sleep quality was assessed using standard tools such as Perceived Stress Scale and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Majority 65% of the participants were male and 35% were female; 60.4 % of the participants had poor sleep quality and 57.4 % had higher stress levels. Stress and sleep have a reciprocal relationship. There was a significant association between stress levels and sleep quality. Higher the stress scores, poorer the sleep quality. Work hours and sleep hours also have an impact on the levels of stress. Higher stress levels was observed among majority of the participants. Healthy coping strategies must be adopted in stress management, improving sleep quality and in maintaining a healthy lifestyle
3D Dynamic Rupture Modeling of the 6 February 2023, Kahramanmaraş, Turkey Mw 7.8 and 7.7 Earthquake Doublet Using Early Observations
Authors: Gabriel Alice-Agnes , Ulrich Thomas , Marchandon Mathilde , Biemiller James , Rekoske John 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The 2023 Turkey earthquake sequence involved unexpected ruptures across numerous fault segments. We present 3D dynamic rupture simulations to illuminate the complex dynamics of the earthquake doublet. Our models are constrained by observations available within days of the sequence and deliver timely, mechanically consistent explanations of the unforeseen rupture paths, diverse rupture speeds, multiple slip episodes, heterogeneous fault offsets, locally strong shaking, and fault system interactions. Our simulations link both earthquakes, matching geodetic and seismic observations and reconciling regional seismotectonics, rupture dynamics, and ground motions of a fault system represented by 10 curved dipping segments and embedded in a heterogeneous stress field. The Mw 7.8 earthquake features delayed backward branching from a steeply branching splay fault, not requiring supershear speeds. The asymmetrical dynamics of the distinct, bilateral Mw 7.7 earthquake are explained by heterogeneous fault strength, prestress orientation, fracture energy, and static stress changes from the previous earthquake. Our models explain the northward deviation of its eastern rupture and the minimal slip observed on the Sürgü fault. 3D dynamic rupture scenarios can elucidate unexpected observations shortly after major earthquakes, providing timely insights for data-driven analysis and hazard assessment toward a comprehensive, physically consistent understanding of the mechanics of multifault systems.
Querelas de um multiartista. Manifestações da resistência em Milton Hatoum
Authors: Sousa Rayniere Felipe Alvarenga de 
Published: December 2023

A assimilação dos chamados eventos limite tem ocupado o centro de discussões intelectuais frente às sombras de um século marcado por conflitos e situações caóticas. A partir disso, a arte funciona como um meio propício para reflexões, portanto, o estudo objetiva a realização de uma análise político-cultural do romance Cinzas do Norte (2005), a partir da resistência. As marcas representativas nas pinturas, caricaturas e instalações do protagonista Mundo evidenciam problematizações que confluem com episódios históricos, dos quais cito o Ciclo da Borracha (1879 – 1945) e a Ditadura Civil-Militar (1964 – 1985). Os personagens, locais e situações narradas demarcam o que pode funcionar como justificativa para o alcance da arte e para a oportunidade de uma reflexão mais acurada sobre as eventualidades humanas.

En México la normalización se plasma en tres tipos de normas:

Las Normas Oficiales Mexicanas (NOM) de carácter obligatorio, elaboradas por Dependencias del Gobierno Federal y
Las Normas Mexicanas (NMX) de ámbito primordialmente voluntario, promovidas por la Secretaría de Economía y el sector privado, a través de los Organismos Nacionales de Normalización.
Las Normas de referencia (NRF) aplicables a los bienes o servicios que se adquieren, se arrienden o se contraten, en ausencia de normas mexicanas o internacionales.

El Marco legal aplicable a la normalización es de carácter Federal y corresponde a la Comisión Nacional de Normalización (CNN) la coordinación de la política de normalización a nivel nacional. La NOM-050-SCFI-2004 tiene por objeto establecer la información comercial que deben contener los productos de fabricación nacional y de procedencia extranjera que se destinen a los consumidores en el territorio nacional y establecer las características de dicha información.
Se está trabajando en una propuesta de etiquetado electrónico para el vino en México, existe ya la NMX-R-116-SCFI-2021 INFORMACIÓN COMERCIAL-ETIQUETADO ELECTRÓNICO GENERAL DE PRODUCTOS-REQUISITOS Y ESPECIFICACIONES. Esta Norma Mexicana establece los términos, especificaciones y requisitos para el uso del etiquetado electrónico como un método complementario y/o para la corrección de inexactitudes de información comercial del etiquetado físico para los productos en general, sujetos al campo de aplicación de una Norma Oficial Mexicana que establezca requisitos de información comercial, de fabricación nacional o de procedencia extranjera que se comercialicen en el territorio nacional.
