Barriers and recommendations for parent-child conversations about pornography.

Parents consistently report being worried about the impact of online pornography on their adolescent and pre-adolescent children's development. Yet, most parents do not discuss pornography as part of parent-child conversations about sexuality. The current study sought to identify the barriers to parent-child conversations about pornography. We present two studies. The first study employed one-to-one interviews to explore parents' (n = 14) beliefs about their role in their child's pornography education. The second study involved the quantitative assessment of Study 1 findings in a sample of parents of pre-adolescent and adolescent children (n = 408). Findings indicate that three overarching themes prevent parents from addressing pornography with their adolescent children, parents' practical ability to discuss pornography, their attitudes toward discussing pornography, and the perceived positive impact of addressing pornography with their adolescent children. Practical ability was most often reported as the greatest barrier to parents engaging in parent-child conversations about pornography. Most notably, parents reported hesitancy in discussing pornography because they did not know how to define pornography or how to address pornography in an age-appropriate way. Fathers were also significantly less likely to believe that talking about pornography was socially acceptable. We discuss the implications of these findings and present recommendations for developing a parents' pornography education resource.

Practical Research on Tao Xingzhi's Educational Thought of "Integration of Teaching and Doing" in Art Teaching — Taking Flower Carpet as an Example

Art activities include imitation and creation. Tao Xingzhi's thought of the unity of art teaching and practice provides theoretical guidance and practical significance for the imitation and creation of basic art education. In art activities, the opening of aesthetic mind and the practice of art technology are indispensable. It can be said that the edification of aesthetic mind is full of all aspects of life. Paying attention to the sublimation of aesthetic soul is very difficult for the late art education in China. Mr. Tao Xingzhi, a famous educator in China, has the idea of teaching doing in one, which is helpful and enlightening. At present, it has been widely used in many art classes in China. Compared with many novel foreign teaching ideas, our domestic idea of teaching doing in one seems to be more suitable for the local education situation. Abandon the old teaching ideas, pay more attention to let students gain more practical ability in the classroom, let students become the main body in the classroom, and teachers play a more guiding role in diversified embodiment and deeper excavation of theoretical knowledge. Teachers teach while doing and students learn by doing. This new teaching method is more in line with China's educational policy of paying attention to quality education. It is also conducive to cultivating students' creativity and protecting their personality development in thinking, so as to cultivate more excellent talents with all-round development.

Research on the Implementation Strategy of Competence-Oriented Postgraduate Cultivation Programme for Local Applied Universities with Big Data Technology

Prioritising the innovation capacity of postgraduates is paramount, with an effective training model serving as the linchpin. As information technology rapidly evolves and the era of big data looms, postgraduate education faces unprecedented challenges and opportunities. It is imperative for institutions to harness the potential of big data development, leveraging new technologies to enhance the talent development process. The postgraduate programme is the baton for talent development, and incorporating new information technology requirements and multidisciplinary synergies into the programme environment can reinforce the enhancement of innovative practical skills and data literacy, among others. In this way, the institutions provide society with a supply of high quality talent and help to promote the development of new quality productivity. Due to factors such as the regional economy, teaching staff, student quality and academic reputation, some local applied universities find it difficult to fully implement various good ideas for the postgraduate development programme, which to some extent affects the synergy between talent cultivation and local economic development needs. Taking North China University of Technology as an example, this paper adopts the deep learning model in big data technology and integrates capacity training into the daily teaching and practice process of postgraduate students according to the principle of “classified training, optimized links and improved capacity”. The group explored the theme of harnessing the potential of digital technology to support the growth of postgraduate education. Through interviews with students, on-campus and off-campus tutors, alumni and other stakeholders in talent development, they re-imagined the framework for postgraduate education, embodying the principles of strengthening the theoretical base, enhancing the integration of industry and education, and prioritising capacity building, and taking advantage of the digitalisation and networking of education. The research results show that the digital transformation of the education process with the help of big data technology has a driving effect on improving the innovative practical ability and overall quality of graduate students. This measure provides a reference for similar universities to revise their talent training programmes, and enriches the solutions to the problem of "good programmes are difficult to implement" in graduate student training.

Evaluation of novel copper-based antimicrobial admixtures for biocorrosion mitigation of cement paste

Copper-based antimicrobial admixtures have been favoured for mitigating microbially induced concrete corrosion (MICC) owing to their practical bactericidal abilities. However, concerns regarding the leachability of hazardous components and the long-term efficacy of these admixtures have hindered their industrial application, with limited understanding of their comparative antimicrobial performance and mechanisms. In this work, three conventional copper compounds (copper sulphate, copper acetate, and copper oxide) and two newly synthesized copper-modified admixtures (copper-exchanged montmorillonite and copper-chelated chitosan) were evaluated and compared in terms of their impact on the properties, biocorrosion resistance, and environmental impact of cement paste. The findings revealed that the inclusion of copper-containing admixtures led to increased slump flow, extended setting time, improved compressive strength, lowered porosity, and reduced corrosion depth in the cement paste. Compared with copper sulphate and copper oxide, copper acetate exhibited superior engineering properties, antimicrobial performance, and reduced copper ion leaching. Cu-modified montmorillonite emerged as the most effective copper-based antimicrobial agent, considerably reducing the corrosion depth of cement paste by 32.8 % with the lowest copper leaching, suggesting its potential as a sustainable solution for antimicrobial concrete applications. In contrast, adding chitosan led to poor mechanical and adverse antimicrobial performance, indicating its limited potential as a carrier for synthesized antimicrobial agents.

Empowering The Female Undergraduates With Practical Entrepreneurial Skills Development For Curbing Social Economic Challenges In Rivers State

The unjustifiable constants neglect to empower the women in Nigeria called for; “Empowering the female undergraduates with practical entrepreneurial skills development for curbing social economic challenges in Rivers State.” The study was directed by two research questions, and two null hypotheses were developed. The study design used was a descriptive survey. There were 79 lecturers in the population, and a census sampling technique was used. Three experts verified a four-point response options questionnaire that was used to gather data. Cronbach’s alpha was used to determine the instrument’s dependability; the result was a coefficient of 0.89 and 0.88. The mean was employed to address the research questions, and the null hypotheses were tested at the 0.05 level of significance using a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results showed that there was a high level of improvement in the practical entrepreneurial abilities required to enable female undergraduates to address social and economic challenges. Also, there was a significant benefit on reducing social and economic challenges from equipping female undergraduates with real-world business skills. Consequently, it was determined that Nigeria’s social and economic problems would be significantly reduced if our postsecondary institutions sufficiently equipped female undergraduates with useful entrepreneurial abilities. In addition to other crucial recommendations, Nigeria’s female students and women in general should be equipped with high-demanding, lifelong skills for the rapidly evolving workplace by means of sufficient funding for the development of practical entrepreneurial abilities. In addition to government subsidies, the money should be consistent, steady, and could come from other sources as well.
