Research on Optimized Allocation of University English Hybrid Teaching Resources under Cloud Computing Environment
Authors: Sun Yan 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Driven by the informationization of education, a large number of educational resources have been developed, which usually exist in the form of data, and the situation of “data explosion” has challenged the storage and retrieval capabilities of the hybrid teaching resource platform in universities. In this paper, we construct a hybrid teaching resource platform for university English in the cloud computing environment and introduce the improved bat algorithm using dynamic inertia weights and Gaussian perturbation terms into the teaching resource platform to optimize the process of English teaching resource allocation. The experimental results of the benchmark performance test show that the teaching resource platform has no abnormalities, such as program execution failure in the process of processing files, indicating that the stability of the teaching resource platform is good. The analysis of its application effect shows that the indicators of resource allocation are optimized after the teaching resource allocation experiment, and the variability among college English classes decreases. The English learning effectiveness of students in the experimental classes assisted by the teaching resource platform is significantly better than that of students in the control classes (P=0.001<0.05). This paper lays a foundation for improving the informatization of university English teaching and provides a reference basis for improving students’ English learning effectiveness.

Published: January 2025

Abstract

Introduction
Different Chlamydia species affect cattle and contribute to economic losses. One of them, C. pecorum, is a globally endemic livestock pathogen. Despite its endemicity, prevalence data from Poland have so far been limited. The present study aimed to obtain insight into the chlamydiae prevalence in Polish dairy cattle.

Material and Methods
A screening of chlamydial seroprevalence in dairy cattle was initially performed, followed by Chlamydiaceae- and species-specific real-time qPCR. Vaginal swabs (n = 239) and placenta samples (n = 2) from seropositive animals in 142 herds were collected to detect shedders. The study population consisted of cows (n = 2,780) from dairy herds (n = 1,153) located in all Polish voivodeships.

Results
The true animal prevalence was determined to be 33.3%, while the true herd prevalence was 42.7%. Five groups of Polish voivodeships were identified using appropriate statistical tools, highlighting differences that may arise from various factors impacting the spread of chlamydial infections. The only detected chlamydia species was C. pecorum, the presence of which was confirmed in two herds.

Conclusion
This study revealed that chlamydial infections are commonly present in Polish dairy cattle across the country.

Published: January 2025

The concept of the supreme deity delegating power to lesser spirits and quasi-mythological deities has been part of the esteemed worldview of the Sissala ethnic society. As such, animistic practices and strict observance of taboo systems permeate in the production of indigenous visual artefacts that served as receptacles and offerings for the deities and spirits believed to rule the cosmos and human affairs among the Sissala of the Bussie traditional area. The indigenous arts were practiced by specialized village guilds and the skills are passed on to the younger generation through hereditary and apprenticeship. This phenomenological study rooted in the qualitative research was conducted within one year from June 2021 to August 2022. Data were garnered via interviews, focus group discussions, and observations from 30 study participants who were selected via purposive and snowballing sampling designs, consisting of 18 master-artists, and 12 non-craft professionals. The study revealed the remarkable history and animistic practices in the acquisition of materials and preparation of tools and equipment for the production of the indigenous visual arts. The study contends that the indigenous arts of the Sissala ethnic society are culture-specific and are inseparable from worldviews of the people. Praktik Animistik dalam Produksi Seni Visual Asli di Area Tradisional Bussie, Ghana AbstrakKonsep tentang dewa tertinggi yang mendelegasikan kekuasaan kepada roh-roh yang lebih rendah dan dewa-dewa semi-mitologis telah menjadi bagian dari pandangan dunia yang dihormati dalam masyarakat etnis Sissala. Oleh karena itu, praktik animisme dan kepatuhan ketat terhadap sistem tabu meresap dalam pembuatan artefak visual tradisional yang berfungsi sebagai wadah dan persembahan untuk dewa-dewa dan roh-roh yang diyakini mengatur kosmos dan urusan manusia di antara masyarakat Sissala di wilayah tradisional Bussie. Seni tradisional ini dipraktikkan oleh kelompok pengrajin desa yang khusus, dan keterampilannya diwariskan kepada generasi muda melalui jalur keturunan dan sistem magang. Studi fenomenologis yang berakar pada penelitian kualitatif ini dilakukan selama satu tahun, dari Juni 2021 hingga Agustus 2022. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara, diskusi kelompok terfokus, dan observasi dari 30 partisipan yang dipilih melalui desain sampling purposif dan snowballing. Partisipan terdiri dari 18 seniman ahli dan 12 profesional non-pengrajin. Studi ini mengungkap sejarah yang luar biasa serta praktik animisme dalam pengadaan bahan dan persiapan alat serta peralatan untuk produksi seni visual tradisional. Studi ini menegaskan bahwa seni tradisional masyarakat etnis Sissala bersifat spesifik budaya dan tidak terpisahkan dari pandangan dunia masyarakatnya.

Abismos de movimiento: la crítica del desierto en <i>Porque parece mentira la verdad nunca se sabe</i>
Authors: Garcés Farfán Andrea 
Published: January 2025

The portrayal of North American deserts as empty, timeless, dangerous, marginal, andinfertile has been crucial in the consolidation of the United States, Mexico, and theirborderlands. Since the nineteenth century, the vastness and aridity of the desert have justified the appropriation of new territories, mechanisms of state control, and modernizingprojects on both sides of the border. In order to explore the representation of the desert in the local literature of arid regions, this article presents an ecocritical analysis of Daniel Sada’s Porque parece mentira la verdad nunca se sabe. I propose that by narrating the movement of its human and non-human characters, Sada’s novel not only gives back historical depth and (bio)diversity to a supposedly empty and timeless territory but also criticizes the Western conception of the desert and its effects on the Chihuahuan desert.
Measuring the latency of crimes committed with the help of information and communication technologies according to the matrix of A.A. Konev's punishability indices
Authors: Komarov Anton Anatolevich 
Published: January 2025

The subject of the study in this paper is the real state of computer crime. At the moment, this type of crime is one of the most urgent problems of national security. Its qualitative and quantitative indicators indicate the need to reorient the activities of law enforcement agencies to combat this threat. However, in our opinion, such a reorientation should correspond to a balanced analysis and understanding of the true state of affairs not only in the accounting and registration discipline of law enforcement agencies engaged in countering such socially dangerous encroachments, but also in the actual state of its latent part. The main difficulty in such an analysis is that the completeness of criminal statistics on the issue of computer crime is provided for a fairly short period of time. Therefore, within the framework of our work, special attention is paid to the applied mathematical and statistical aspects of the accounting and registration discipline of law enforcement entities, as a necessary condition for its objective knowledge, in order to plan law enforcement activities more effectively. To solve the tasks assigned to us, we resorted to the use of the documentary method in our research. After that, the data was statistically processed by summarizing and grouping. Then the hypotheses of the study were verified by mathematical calculations of the indices of punishability, the intensity of the manifestation of public danger and the severity coefficients of computer crime according to the original methodology of A.A. Konev. The main conclusions of this study are the statements that there has been no qualitative change in the degree of latency of computer crime, despite its multiple increase in volumes. At the same time, it is obvious that the latency of certain types of computer crimes is not uniform and varies in different ways, depending on the structure. The actual state of computer crime depends on many mediating factors. But the calculation model indicates the need for two indispensable conditions: an increase in the severity of acts and a multiplicity of volume growth rates over a relatively short period of time, as a necessary component of reducing the latent part of crime. Such conditions in the framework of computer crime are observed only in two cases: Internet drug crime related to the retail sale of prohibited substances and mercenary computer crimes are primarily frauds.

Authors: Otamuratov Rustam Uskanovich 
Published: January 2025

The subject of the study is the study of the psychological characteristics of the emotional intelligence of urban and rural Internet users. The object of the study is the emotional intelligence of urban and rural youth prone to Internet addiction. The author examines in detail the degree of influence of the Internet on the emotional intelligence of young people living in urban and rural environments of the Republic of Uzbekistan, and interprets the peculiarities of their manifestation of emotional intelligence from the point of view of the region. The author suggests that young people who are prone to Internet addiction may lose control of their emotions. The importance of studying the psychological characteristics of people prone to Internet addiction is primarily related to the growth of Internet users. Meanwhile, there are different approaches to the positive and negative sides of the problem, which justifies the need for its detailed study. The study used: the test "Internet addiction" by Kimberly Young in translation and modification by V.A. Loskutova (Burova); the method "Virtual identification of users of social networks" (VIPSS) by D.N. Pogorelov; the test "Emotional intelligence" by D.V. Lyusin. The Student's t-test and the method of correlation analysis were used as methods of mathematical statistics. The main conclusions of the study are that significant differences were found between urban and rural youth in terms of their propensity to Internet addiction, as well as certain differences in aspects of emotional intelligence. Thus, respondents who were not dependent on the Internet had a high level of emotional intelligence. The level of emotional intelligence was low among urban and rural citizens who use the Internet very actively and have a tendency to addiction. It was revealed that the propensity for Internet addiction among urban youth is higher than among rural youth, the difference is 99.9% (t=14,827; p&#8804;0.05), which was observed in the subculture acceptability scale (t=1,995; p&#8804;0.05). Regional differences were recorded in the study of respondents with general emotional intelligence (t=-4,352; p

Authors: Altan Ahmet , Onat Osman Kürşat 
Published: January 2025

Objectives:
This study aims to analyze the comments about orthognathic surgery-themed YouTube videos through artificial intelligence and remarking the emotional effects of videos on people.

Material and Methods:
In this study, the keyword “orthognathic surgery” was searched on YouTube. In pursuit of recording sub-video comments, comments were analyzed with a machine learning-based emotion analysis algorithm.

Results:
One thousand one hundred and forty-five comments were analyzed in the study. 2 of 4 surgery videos contain real surgery images. Two videos are animated videos about the details of the surgery. Emotions described in comments are sorted as fear (43.7%), joy (21%), anger (14.6%), and sadness (11.6%). Where comments are reviewed in the aspect of sentiment, negative comments were dense (59.3%), respectively, followed by positive (18.3%), very negative (10.6%), and very positive (2.7 %). Regarding sentiment, differences in comments on real and animation surgery videos are statistically significant (P < 0.05). A significance level of very negative comments was higher in real surgery videos (P = 0.015).

Conclusion:
Different video formats, animation or real videos, may be used for informing, but we think that watching real surgical operation videos may increase people’s preoperative anxiety.

Authors: Хнин Т. , Куновски М.Н. 
Published: January 2025

В статье рассматривается проблема обучения фонетике русского языка в университетах Мьянмы, где русский язык преподается вне естественной языковой среды. Актуальность исследования обусловлена сложностью преподавания фонетики без погружения в языковую среду. Целью работы является выявление проблем, возникающих в процессе преподавания фонетики русского языка мьянманским студентам, и определение возможных путей их решения. Методы исследования включают контент-анализ научной литературы, а также анкетирование преподавателей и студентов Янгонского университета иностранных языков. Анализ результатов анкетирования позволил определить основные трудности преподавания фонетики русского языка вне русскоязычной среды: существенные различия в фонетических системах русского и бирманского языков; отсутствие возможности языковой практики; преподавание русского языка неносителями. Опираясь на проведенное исследование, авторы выдвигают гипотезу об эффективности применения специально разработанного цифрового образовательного ресурса, позволяющего компенсировать отсутствие естественной языковой среды с учетом особенностей родного языка студентов. Теоретическая и практическая значимость работы заключается в поиске путей повышения эффективности обучения фонетике русского языка в условиях отсутствия языковой среды. Перспективы дальнейших исследований связаны с разработкой и внедрением цифровых образовательных ресурсов, учитывающих специфику целевой аудитории.
Russian phonetics teaching in Myanmar universities, where Russian is taught outside the natural language environment, is considered in the article. The relevance of the research is due to the complexity of teaching phonetics without immersion in the language environment. The aim of the work is to identify problems that arise in the process of teaching Russian phonetics to Myanmar students and identify possible ways to solve them. The research methods include content analysis of scientific literature, as well as a survey of teachers and students of Yangon University of Foreign Languages. Russian Russian phonetics analysis allowed to identify the main difficulties of teaching phonetics of the Russian language outside the Russian-speaking environment: significant differences in the phonetic systems of the Russian and Burmese languages; lack of language practice; teaching Russian by non-native speakers. Based on the conducted research, the authors hypothesize the effectiveness of using a specially developed digital educational resource that allows compensating for the lack of a natural language environment, taking into account the peculiarities of the students' native language. The theoretical and practical significance of the work lies in the search for ways to improve the effectiveness of teaching phonetics of the Russian language in the absence of a language environment. The prospects for further research are related to the development and implementation of digital educational resources that take into account the specifics of the target audience.

Аксиологическая трансформация высшего юридического образования в России
Authors: Щербакова О.В. 
Published: January 2025

В работе анализируется аксиологическая трансформация высшего юридического образования в России. В качестве исходной методологической позиции аксиологическая основа образования понимается как направленность образования на формирование мотивационно-ценностного конструкта личности обучающегося. В качестве детерминанты процесса формирования ценностей в образовательной среде высшего образования рассматривается профессиональная деятельность, ее специфика и характеристики. Научная проблема формирования ценностной основы высшего образования исходит из представлений о иерархичности и динамизме как свойств структуры ценностей. В работе изучены позиции исследователей высшего юридического образования, нормативные правовые акты в области ценностного развития образования. Автором, на основе перечня ценностей, содержащихся в Указе Президента Российской Федерации «Об утверждении Основ государственной политики по сохранению и укреплению традиционных российских духовно-нравственных ценностей», предлагается оригинальная аксиологическая структура высшего юридического образования, в которой выделяется три уровня: ядерный, дополняющий и периферийный. Цель данной работы – определить вектор аксиологической трансформации высшего образования.
The paper analyzes the axiological transformation of higher legal education in Russia. As an initial methodological position, the axiological basis of education is understood as the orientation of education towards the formation of a motivational and value construct of a student's personality. Professional activity, its specifics and characteristics are considered as a determinant of the process of value formation in the educational environment of higher education. The scientific problem of the formation of the value basis of higher education comes from the concepts of hierarchy and dynamism as properties of the value structure. The paper examines the positions of researchers of higher legal education, normative legal acts in the field of value development of education. The author, based on the list of values contained in the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation "On Approval of the Foundations of State Policy for the preservation and strengthening of traditional Russian spiritual and moral values", proposes an original axiological structure of higher legal education, which distinguishes three levels: nuclear, complementary and peripheral. The purpose of this work is to determine the vector of axiological transformation of higher education.
