Durkheim’s war for civilization

Émile Durkheim’s collaborations with other French intellectuals during the war in various committees and polemical pamphlets, editorials, and scholarly essays are treated here as both a continuation of and a challenge to ideas he had developed earlier concerning social solidarity, the science of sociology, socialism, the modern state, and, ultimately, the moral foundations of civilization itself. Writing on behalf of the French war effort and against German “barbarism,” he tacitly or explicitly developed insights from his books On the Division of Social Labour, Suicide, The Rules of Sociological Method, and The Elementary Forms of Religious Life, and he elaborated on themes from his lecture courses on socialism, professional ethics and civic morals, and education. Although his wartime writings were largely commissioned, written, and published as propaganda, they also provided him with an opportunity to test, refine, and in some instances revise sociological arguments he had been working on throughout his career. Rather than bringing Durkheim’s scholarly production to an abrupt halt or signaling a gradual decline in his intellectual capacities, the war provoked him to rethink some of his key sociological ideas and inspired him to take his research program in new directions.

Psicopatía y tratamiento de la responsabilidad criminal.

Spanish jurisprudence does not declare psychopathy as an exculpatory circumstance from criminal liability, understanding that, although it may be considered as an psychological alteration, the assessment of the intellectual and volitional capacities does not prevent the person from being responsible for their actions.

Building An Android-Based Application For Teenage Women's Reproductive Health Education

Background: Improper nutritional intake during adolescence can cause health problems, such as: impaired physical growth, increased risk of iron deficiency (Iron Deficiency Anemia), decreased intellectual capacity, impaired bone health, impaired sexual organ function, impaired concentration and performance at school, eating disorders and obesity, as well as malnutrition, but teenagers' knowledge about nutrition is very limited. Teenagers easily adapt to digital literacy. Providing digital interventions can have a positive impact on various aspects of health so that efforts to empower teenagers through increasing health promotion and early detection of adolescent health problems digitally are growing rapidly. Aim: The aim of this research is to explore the needs of young women for Android-based nutritional and reproductive health educational applications. Method: The qualitative research method is in-depth interviews via the Zoom application, WhatsApp video call, or WhatsApp voice call. Result: The results of qualitative research show that young women prefer educational media that is easy and fast in providing health information so that educational efforts via smartphones, namely Android-based applications, are an effective solution in providing precise and accurate information about nutritional intake and reproductive health.

Technological Innovation in The Exploration of 5.0 Education Based Self Esteem-Exceed Model on Gifted Intelligent Students

To be able to achieve success in their life, gifted intelligent students do not only need to optimize their cognitive function, but also to manage their self esteem. There have been many cases where students with high intellectual capacity failed in their life and work. This study aims to integrate technological innovation with the exploration of 5.0 educational based self esteem model or Exploration of Self Esteem Model (Exseed) in order to strengthen the character of gifted intelligent students. 5.0 education emphasizes the use of technology as an instrument to enrich learning experience. 5.0 educational approach enables the integration of technology such as Artificial Intelligent (AI), Augmented Reality (AR), and Virtual Reality (VR) into the learning process. In this study, technology is used as a tool to create an immersive learning experience in order to help gifted intelligent students to understand abstract concepts as well as they understand concrete concepts. Research method used in this study was the waterfall method. Waterfall method has five stages, namely, analyzing requirements, designing, applying, testing, and maintaining. The result of this study is a technological product for the Exploration of 5.0 Educational Based Self Esteem Model which is called Exseed to strengthen the characters of gifted intelligent students. Practical implication of this study includes the development of Exseed learning platform which can be adjusted with the individual need of gifted intelligent students as well as the improvement of learning involvement through the use of technology. Technology Integration in 5.0 educational based Exseed to explore self esteem of gifted intelligent students can be a progressive step to strengthen characters in the context of inclusive learning centered on them.

Development of Public English Teachers in Chinese Vocational Colleges via the Mechanism of “One Body, Two Wings and Three Parties Collaborations”

A good public English teaching faculty is an essential requirement for the development of high-quality vocational education and is urgently needed to achieve the objectives outlined by the “New Curriculum Standards” in Chinese colleges. The current challenges faced by the construction of the public English teaching faculty in the colleges include improper professional development orientation, unreasonable teacher structure ratios, imbalanced teacher ability development, indistinctive faculty characteristics, and inadequate fulfillment of moral cultivation objective. To address these issues, this study based on the questionnaire survey and cases collected mainly from higher vocational colleges in Jiangxi’s province explores repositioning the new professional role of public English teachers under the “New Curriculum Standards” by implementing the working mechanism: “one body (public English teachers), two wings (recruiting & training public English talents), and three parties (government, schools and enterprises) collaboration.” It aims to comprehensively enhance the integrated qualities of “professional knowledge + foreign language skills + cultural literacy” among teachers, thus improving the moral and intellectual nurturing capacity of public English courses in higher vocational education.

Political Soldiers of the Party: A Political and Social Portrait of the KGB Cadre

The KGB cadres are undeservedly left in the shadow of the agents, even though they were the ones who implemented the repressive policy, persecuted and interrogated individuals, and recruited agents and formed assignments for them. The Soviet security worker before and after 1953 differed, because the new challenges did not require the brutality characteristic of the Stalinist period, but rather – greater intellectual capacities, so the number of Lithuanians and people with high educational attainment on the staff increased. However, the social and political portrait of a member of the Cheka was no less influenced by the status of this structure itself, because a job with the KGB was prestigious and privileged, and formed a certain status of secretiveness and exclusiveness.

Helsmoortel-Van der Aa syndrome in a 13-year-old girl with autistic spectrum disorder, dysmorphism, a right solitary kidney, and polycystic ovaries: a case report

BackgroundHelsmoortel-Van der Aa syndrome was officially documented in 2014. Helsmoortel-Van der Aa syndrome is an extremely rare complex neurodegenerative disorder characterized by reduced intellectual capacity, motor dysfunction, facial dysmorphism, impaired development, and an increased predisposition to autism spectrum disorder. In addition, many patients also present with neuropsychiatric disorders, including attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, anxiety disorders, and various behavioral abnormalities. Helsmoortel-Van der Aa syndrome is challenging to identify solely on the basis of symptoms, and genetic investigations, including exome sequencing, may facilitate diagnosis.Case presentationWe report a case of 13-year-old Saudi patient who presented with dysmorphic features as illustrated in Fig. 1, severe intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Initial genetic testing was unremarkable; thus, a clinical exome analysis was performed to identify the genetic basis of the condition.ConclusionsClinical exome analysis indicated an autosomal dominant Helsmoortel-Van der Aa syndrome with a likely pathogenic de novo variant within the activity-dependent neuroprotector homeobox (ADNP) gene not previously reported in Helsmoortel-Van der Aa syndrome. The patient had a right-sided solitary kidney and polycystic ovaries, conditions that were not previously associated with HVDAS.

Influence of Reading or Writing Activities Shared with Others on Older Adults: Results From a Scoping Study.

This study aimed to provide integrated knowledge on the influence of shared reading or writing activities, that is, recreational occupations involving dynamic relationships based on personal development, on adults aged 55 and older. Using a scoping study framework, six databases were searched with 25 relevant keywords for papers, theses, and scientific reports published in 2001-2023. Based on the Human Development Model-Disability Creation Process, the content analysis of 20 documents showed that shared reading or writing activities mostly benefited aging adults' behavioral capabilities like positive affect, their intellectual capacities, such as developing new perspectives on life, their interpersonal relationships, and social support. Negative instances, such as frustration, were often mentioned at the beginning of the activities but decreased over time. These results suggest the importance of shared reading or writing activities for healthy aging and the necessity to better support these activities for more inclusive and caring aging societies.

Early Detection of Stunting Based on Feature Engineering Approach

The stunting problem in Indonesia is still an extensive issue for the government. Around 22% of cases of stunting affect brain development, resulting in reduced intellectual capacity and permanent disruption of the structure and function of nerves and brain cells. This research describes early detection of stunting using an feature selection approach. So, datasets related to stunting are valuable in providing complete insight or information in detecting early symptoms of stunting in toddlers. Machine learning modelling for early detection of stunting in this study shows that of the 14 features predicting the value of detecting stunting, only seven features are influential based on their correlation values. When testing continues using Machine Learning algorithms with various variants, the Multilayer Perceptron algorithm can produce an accuracy value of 98%.

Oral Communication – A Fundamental Means of Language Development in Preschoolers

Preschool educators have the noble mission of teaching young children fluent, grammatically correct expression and a varied lexicon appropriate to their age. I believe pedagogical mastery lies in how each educator personalizes the instructional-educational process to develop lifelong learning competencies. Using teaching methods such as storytelling, retelling, picture reading, conversation, and educational games maximizes children's intellectual capacities, maintains their interest in the subject matter, stimulates their creative attitude, and encourages their own effort in developing logical and analogical thinking through practicing correct communication skills in the Romanian language. Communication must be continuously practiced not only to learn specific techniques and procedures but especially to learn to express thoughts and ideas coherently, thus making cooperative project-building an activity that involves understanding the world, others, and oneself

Development of socio-emotional skills in the training of educators in today’s society

Socio-emotional skills comprise a set of habits, thoughts, and emotions that facilitate interpersonal relationships through the appropriate expression of emotions and consideration oftheir impact on others. Backed by neurology, these skills are crucial for learning and for educators’contributions to new generations. This essay aims to reflect on the socio-emotional skills of future education professionals, exploring their influence on teaching and their contribution to society. Given the pandemic situation, it is proposed to present the role of socio-emotional education in theuniversity curricular activities of teacher trainers in Chile, using the critical-interpretative method and hermeneutic phenomenology. The discussion is based on experience, dialogue with groups of students and teachers, identifying key points for the inclusion of emotional skills in teachertraining. The process involved the active participation of the teacher, who took on the initial role inthe intervention by providing instructions and guidelines for the development of socio-emotional skills related to ethics and education in various contexts. This was carried out virtually at a higher education institution in Chile. The conclusion emphasizes the urgency and need to integrate socioemotionaleducation into the curriculum for university education professionals. The alignmentbetween Goleman, Bisquerra, and Morin, theorists who have delved into the subject, is highlighted,although the persistence of orthodox educational models that exclude emotions, focusingexcessively on intellectual capacities and overlooking the need for comprehensive emotionaltraining to face contemporary societal challenges, is noted.

Bilingualism and Intelligence: An Examination with a View of Peal and Lambert's Study: The Relation of Bilingualism to Intelligence

Bilingualism is based on a description of the linguistic situation in a speech community that consists of colloquial and standard language, ultimately resulting in the existence of two different languages that are used alternatively in speaking, writing, listening, and reading. The acquisition of another language will cause changes on the brain. Studies have been inquiring into the pros and cons of having two or more different languages. The study of Peal and Lambert supported significant structural changes involved in the acquisition of another language form, and that it guaranteed the enhancement of intellectual capacity, cognitive ability, and intelligence. The present study aims to shed light on the effects of bilingualism on the intellectual functioning in the brain and the life of bilingual as a whole. It adopted the descriptive method of the relation of bilingualism to intelligence. The study concluded that bilingualism could enhance life by improving cognitive abilities. It recommends conducting further studies to explore bilingualism, intelligence, and other areas, including passive vs. active, sequential vs. simultaneous, and receptive vs. productive bilingualism.

The idea of creative reflexivity and its psychological substantiation

The article argues the importance of the personality’s reflective potential as their ability to self-aware and adequately assess themselves and the surrounding world in order to act effectively in an unstable and rapidly changing natural environment and social environment. The p u r p o s e of the current investigation is the psychological substantiation of the idea of creative reflexivity as a guiding idea for the further conceptualization of the current subject field of the author’s research. The o b j e c t of study is psychodidactically actualized in the educational process of institutions of higher education the reflective potential and creative abilities of the future teacher’s personality, and its s u b j e c t is psychological conditions and peculiarities of the creative reflexivity development of the pedagogical college students in their system-creating center – a deed of creative reflection. At the same time, r e f l e x i v i t y at the level of a person is a quality, trait or state of consciousness, and r e f l e c t i o n is a mental or personal process; therefore, reflexivity is actualized and developed through the ability to reflect; then creative reflexivity is the potential for creative, non-standard, in-depth self-cognition and self-construction of a personal trait-property of an adult, namely as their original intellectual capacity for their own multiaspect self-awareness – mental and social experience, motivations and means of activity, psycho-emotional and intentional states, everyday and existential problems, process and results of one’s thinking-activity, etc. In their genesis, they go through a certain path of development from fragmentary, separate manifestations in the womb of other cognitive processes to their integral-self existence as a personality, primarily own needs, motives, deeds and as their ability for own self-awareness, self-development, self-improvement, self-creation. The methodological basis of the specialists’ creative reflexivity development in the socio-humanitarian sphere in general and of the future teacher in particular in the process of professional education within Higher education institutions is the cyclical-deed approach by A. V. Furman as the center of the post-non-classically oriented vita-cultural methodology, as well as the fundamental foundations of the modular-developmental system of education, which substantiates its social-cultural mission, based on the principles of mentality, spirituality, development, modularity.

Perceived Information in Organizations by the Employees is Fruitful or not? A Theoretical Context

The phrase perceived information refers feeling or self-assessments of knowing related information. Perceived information’s level affects the intellectual capacity and makes use of interrelationships amid new portions of information in subjects like choice decision tasks. It also influences themes’ assessments of the significance of latest and old information. This research effort is necessary for elaborating the value of perceived information by the employees for their job satisfaction. As the phrase, perceived information needs to be discussed because there is not much literature on it. It is a context base analysis from existing literature; where information sharing is considered as independent, whereas job satisfaction is dependent variable. Perceived information along with its dimensions is use as mediation that the workforce is perceiving the information from the environment through information sharing’s as well as it has impacts on job satisfaction. Investigation on available literature is exploring that perceived basic (initial, necessary), appropriate (specific) and actionable information by the workforce have both positive and negative impacts. However, it depends upon the nature of workforce especially their levels to understand and handle the things. This study is highlighting both bright and dark sides of information. When information has higher level of perceived intrinsic information quality, but lacks contextual weight or realistic applications, it might not facilitate job satisfaction. Some theoretical links has been elaborated in this study i.e., functions of basic, appropriate and actionable information.

Water as A Transversal Axis of Learning in School Textbooks For Chilean Primary Education Students

Objective: The objective of this study is to investigate the presence of water as a transversal learning axis in the activities of Natural Science textbooks in Chilean Basic Education. Theoretical Framework: The theoretical framework is associated with the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals, the Chilean science curricular bases, as well as the didactic management associated with school textbooks. Method: The mixed method is followed, through content analysis, the elaboration of a priori categories, supported by quantitative elements to describe and interpret the data obtained from the analysis of school textbooks. Results and Discussion: The results obtained revealed the presence of activities, still insufficient, that deal with the topic of water in the texts. The highest frequencies of educational activities are found in the fifth and sixth grades. The skills promoted are intellectual capacities (operations to acquire, recover, solve problems and retain different types of knowledge); on the other hand, the skills that demand a process of practice (mastery of the technique or skill), attitudes and habits, such as ways of acting and behaving, are the least promoted. Research Implications: The implications of the study are referred to the methodology of science teaching in Basic Education and the respective teacher training. Originality/value: The results of the study contribute to filling a gap in the literature related to the teaching of water proposed in school textbooks. With this, guidelines are provided to improve the activities suggested in the textbooks, promoting awareness of water, its reuse and conservation.
