Authors: Adebisi Thomas Ajibade , Feyijimi Taiwo 
Published: December 2023

The concept of spatial ability has been viewed within the boundary of technology and engineering by many researchers and education experts undermining its relevance to Physics at the secondary schools level. Spatial ability gives a wider ability to the use of higher order thinking skills which are accounted valuable for analysis, synthesis and evaluation needed in solving problems and has the tendency to influence students’ attitude. Therefore, the study examined the influence of spatial ability levels on the performance and attitude of Physics students in public secondary schools in Osun State, Nigeria. A descriptive survey design was used for the study. The population for the study consisted of all the students in public secondary schools in four Local Government Areas (LGAs) of Ife in Osun State of Nigeria. A representative sample of 270 Physics students was selected using multi-stage sampling technique. Three instruments used for data collection are: Adapted Spatial Ability Test (ASAT), Performance Test in Physics (PTP) and Students’ Attitude Physics Questionnaire (SAPQ). Content validity of the three instruments was ensured by experts’ judgments. The reliability coefficient of 0.75, 0.85 and 0.82 were obtained for ASAT, PTP and SAPQ respectively. The results of the study classified students’ spatial ability to low, average and high levels and many students had low spatial ability. The results of the study further showed that that there is statistically significant influence of spatial ability levels on the performance of physics students in the study areas. The finding showed that there is no statistically significant influence of spatial ability levels on attitude of students towards Physics in the study areas. Consequently, it was recommended that there should be ongoing research on spatial ability to provide information for physics teachers and that Physics students should be encouraged to take lesson on various spatial ability activities.

The study was conducted in the Nile River State (RNS) in Berber Locality during the winter season 2016/17 to evaluate and compare the economic efficiency of traditional and modern irrigation systems for alfalfa crop production. The study selected Alkafaa Scheme (Al-Rajhi) where it uses sprinkler irrigation, Al-Hassa Agricultural Scheme and Small Private Schemes where traditional irrigation is used. In order to achieve the objectives of the study, data wascollected through two questionnaires one for Small Private Schemes farmers, the otherquestionnaire to collect the data from Alkafaa Scheme (investment) and Al- Hassa Scheme(Public). In addition to the secondary data collected from the relevant authorities. This study used, regression analysis و analysis of the farm budget and analysis of the two programs (Cropwat8 and Climwat) for alfalfa crop. The study showed that Alkafaa Scheme is the highest profitability for alfalfa crop compared to Al- Hassa Scheme and small private schemes where the Coefficient of Private Profitability of alfalfa crop for the above schemes was (1.29, 1.23, 1.28) respectively. The results of regression analysis showed that the variables (irrigation costs, seeds costs, fertilizer costs, pesticide costs) had a significant effect on alfalfa productivity for the farmers of small private schemes, whereas variables (farmers age, educational level, years of experience) did not have a significant effect on productivity for small private farmers. The results analysis of the two programs (Cropwat8 and Climwat)showed that the efficiency of using irrigation water for alfalfa crop was (70%, 47%, 47%) in Alkafaa Scheme, Al- Hassa Scheme and small private schemes respectively. This confirms that the use of modern irrigation increases the efficiency of water use. The study recommended: encouraging of investment in the modern irrigation schemes, especially that the results of the study reflects high efficiency compared to traditional irrigation. It also recommended providing the necessary funding for alfalfa crop production in a timely manner and sufficient to allow the use of agricultural inputs, the results of which showed a significantpositive impact on alfalfa production.

The study aimed to examine the Optimal Cropping Sequence of the main crops grown under the rain-fed sector of Gadarif state - Sudan: such as sorghum, millet, sesame and groundnuts. The study used both primary and secondary data. Multistage random sampling technique was used to collect primary data on small-scale farms from three villages of the state by means of questionnaire as a sample farmer from 175 of Gadarif State, during 2017 -2018 season. Secondary data were collected from Central Bureau of Statistics and Federal Ministry of Agriculture. Linear programming technique was used to determine the optimal cropping sequence of small-scale farms (less than 210ha) in the rain-fed sector of Gadarif state. Spread sheet of the excel solver was used to run the analysis. The results revealed that the current cultural practices and crop sequence, in which sorghum do not come after sesame, was not the optimal one. Food-crops (sorghum and millet) did not enter the optimal cropping pattern under the current sequences and policy measures, with sesame dominated the total land. The crop sequence of groundnuts, sesame, sorghum and millet proved to be the optimal cropping pattern that improves farmer’s returns. Under such sequence, the four crops entered the optimum plan and farmers’ returns exceed of the current situation by 181.94%, but if this sequence is used with the recommended full package of technological improvement, then farmers’ net returns will increase three times than the current practices. Small-scale farmers should be encouraged to adopt the crop sequence in which sorghum come after sesame. They should also be encouraged to change their mind to become commercially oriented (by following the crop sequences with greatest returns according to local and international demand and expected prices. Even if the subsistence crop is excluded).

Балеты Иржи Килиана в Казахстане
Authors: Шомаева Дилара 
Published: December 2023

The subject of this article is the staging research of ballets by one of the greatest choreographers of the 20th century, Jiří Kylián, on the Kazakhstani stage. During the theatrical seasons of 2022–2023, performances from the Black and White series were added to the repertoire of two ballet collectives: Fallen Angels by the Astana Ballet theater, Six Dances, and Little Death by the Astana Opera theater. The aim of this work is to define the key moments of the staging process and analyze of the peculiarities of the choreographic style of the ballet master presented for mastery by our performers.
The methodological basis includes Kylián’s works from the Black and White series, studying which involved various formal analysis methods. Among other methods used are descriptive-analytical, interviews, and the method of participant observation (presence at rehearsals).
The premieres of the Czech choreographer were preceded by the process of introducing troupes to other outstanding examples of 20th-century ballet art. This contributed to the successful mastery by artists of Kylián’s plastic style, which involves synthesizing classical ballet school with the contraction system of contemporary dance. His creative work is characterized by a close connection of dance with the expressive means of music, as well as the expressive show of feelings and emotions through movement. All of this is evident in three ballets successfully transferred to the capital’s theaters by Kylián’s assistants, Shirley Esseboom and Stefan Żeromski.
The results of their work on Kylián’s ballets in Kazakhstan are evaluated positively, as evidenced by the audience’s and professionals’ interest in the premier performances. The acquisition of these performances is noted for its influence on the activities of young choreographers and ballet artists.

Digitalization has changed many aspects of human life, including marriage. Many people today hold virtual weddings. The purpose of this study is to analyze the problems of virtual marriage practice by looking at the legal side from the view of four schools. This research uses library research method through normative legal approach (Islamic law). The results of this study are as follows: (1) Connectivity imbalance causes loss of ijab and kabul networks. The Hanafiyyah and Hanbaliyyah schools consider the marriage contract valid, the Shafi'iyyah and Malikiyyah schools are invalid unless they are only briefly interrupted and there is no sign of breaking the ijab and kabul refinement. (2) The occurrence of speculative elements that cause one of the brides-to-be not to meet the requirements, scholars of the four schools of thought agree that the marriage contract is invalid. (3) The loss of audio from one or both parties that causes the witness and the contractor to be unable to hear each other. According to the three schools (Hanafiyyah, Shafi'iyyah, and Hanbaliyyah), the marriage contract is invalid. According to the Malikiyya school the law is valid. (4) Visual loss (image) that causes the witness to be unable to see the party performing the contract. According to the Hanafi school, Hanbaliyyah and Malikiyyah marriage contracts are valid. The Shafi'iyyah School, the contract is invalid because the pillars of sighat ijab kabul marriage that is carried out virtually are classified as shigat kinayah and there is no unity of place. (5) Regulations issued by the Ministry of Religion regarding the impermissibility of holding a virtual marriage contract, if the marriage contract has met the requirements and harmony, the validity of the marriage contract is not affected by regulations set by the government. However, it can be categorized as makruh, even haram, because it violates government regulations.
THE ASSOCIATION BETWEEN MALIGNANT OTITIS EXTERNA AND DIABETES MELLITUS : A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
Authors: Setyo Nugroho Bayu 
Published: December 2023

Background: Diabetes mellitus is one of the risk factors for malignant otitis externa. There are very few studies on the disease and there is a need to pool the prior studies to highlight the characteristics of the disease.
Methods: By comparing itself to the standards set by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) 2020, this study was able to show that it met all of the requirements. So, the experts were able to make sure that the study was as up-to-date as it was possible to be. For this search approach, publications that came out between 2013 and 2023 were taken into account. Several different online reference sources, like Pubmed and SagePub, were used to do this. It was decided not to take into account review pieces, works that had already been published, or works that were only half done.
Result: In the PubMed database, the results of our search brought up 177 articles, whereas the results of our search on SagePub brought up 56 articles. The results of the search conducted for the last year of 2013 yielded a total 59 articles for PubMed and 12 articles for SagePub. In the end, we compiled a total of 4 papers, 3 of which came from PubMed and 1 of which came from SagePub. We included five research that met the criteria.
Conclusion: MEO is an aggressive type of external otitis leading to osteomyelitis of the skull base bone. The usual microorganism involved is Pseudomonas species, and it usually affects individuals with diabetes mellitus. Treatment of the disease has changed over the years, today following conservative treatment modalities with antibiotics and conducting surgery under special circumstances. MEO is a rare but fatal disease, and the specialists involved in its diagnosis and treatment, namely ENT surgeons and diabetes specialists, should be aware of it.
Je suis, tu es, ils/elles sont francophones1
Authors: Le Pichon Emmanuelle 
Published: December 2023

Êtes-vous francophone ? Cette question qui parait à première vue extrêmement simple, est beaucoup plus complexe qu’elle n’en a l’air. Dans cet article, j’introduis la notion de francophonie(s), au pluriel et au singulier, que je revisite à partir du concept sociolinguistique d’espaces sur la base de quatre entretiens que j’ai menés avec des universitaires qui ont accepté de me donner leurs perspectives sur la question. L’analyse montre que la manière dont les individus se situent vis-à-vis de la francophonie dépend moins de la notion de compétence en français que de l’interprétation qu’ils ont du concept en interaction avec leur propre univers de référence. J’invite à entrer dans des pratiques pédagogiques de questionnement des idéologies, des univers de références, non pas pour les juger, mais pour permettre aux acteurs de l’éducation (élèves, enseignants, équipes scolaires) de s’approprier la francophonie en toute légitimité.

ImportanceFetal growth in the critical rapid growth stage (CRGS) before delivery, approximately between 30 to 37 gestational weeks, carries significant implications for subsequent overweight, obesity, and arterial health. Previous evidence has demonstrated the association between maternal depressive symptoms and fetal growth trajectories from early to late pregnancy, but there remains limited understanding of the association of these symptoms with the longitudinal fetal growth change within the CRGS.ObjectiveTo investigate the association between maternal depressive symptoms and fetal growth during the CRGS before delivery.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis prospective birth cohort study was conducted from January 2018 to December 2020. Volunteer pregnant women were enrolled in their first trimester of prenatal visits. Women with severe disease before pregnancy and multiple births, fetuses with congenital anomalies, and preterm or postterm births were excluded. This multicenter study was based in 13 hospitals covering 81 counties across 12 cities in Sichuan Province, China. Follow-up visits were performed at the second trimester, the third trimester, and 24 hours after delivery. The analysis was conducted from January to May 2023.ExposuresMaternal depressive symptoms, as a continuous variable, measured by the Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS) at a median gestational week of 24 (range, 14 to 27) weeks of gestation. A higher score on the EPDS indicates worse depressive symptoms.Main Outcomes and MeasuresThe main outcomes included ultrasonography-measured biparietal diameter (BPD), femur length (FL), and abdominal circumference (AC), along with calculated estimated fetal weight (EFW). These parameters were evaluated longitudinally at a median gestational week of 30 (range, 28 to 32) and 37 (range, 35 to 39) weeks. Linear mixed models were used to estimate the associations between maternal depressive symptoms and fetal growth parameters.ResultsA total of 2676 mother-offspring dyads were included, in which the mean (SD) age of mothers was 28.0 (4.4) years, and 1294 (48.4%) of the offspring were female. The median (IQR) maternal EPDS score was 5.0 (4.0 to 9.0). After adjustment for confounders, a significant correlation was found between a higher score of depressive symptoms in mothers and a slower rate of fetal growth across FL (β = −0.40; 95% CI, −0.58 to −0.22), AC (β = −1.97; 95% CI, −2.90 to −1.03), and EFW (β = −50.11; 95% CI, −68.46 to −31.75). These associations were stronger in female fetuses or those with better family socioeconomic conditions.Conclusions and RelevanceIn this prospective cohort study, maternal depressive symptoms were associated with slower fetal growth rate in the CRGS before delivery. Early screening for depressive disorders in pregnant women appears to be essential for fetal growth and later health.
