Abstract:
The sexual education of kids is an important topic, which despite its delicacy should be publicly discussed and analysed so that it can be helpful primarily for parents. As their children's first teachers, parents are often faced with the intimate questions, asked by their children and for which answers they are not prepared. The possibilities for sex education of kids are numerous and one of them are the books, which encourage families to talk with their children about these topics. The present text explores the appearance of one such book on the Czech marke

Abstract:
According to a publishing assistant for Bookpros, an independent publishing company, “Even though kids are the intended audience for children’s literature, their opinions are often overlooked.” Therefore, for this edition’s book reviews, we turn to the experts: the children. We asked children in first through eighth grade to read and review recently and soon-to-be- published picture books and novels. The reviews are organized according to the grade level of the reviewer and the title of the book.

Abstract:
C. Lynn Jacobs reflects on her experiences with an English Language Development (ELD) class and proposes that teachers should look to students for guidance on how to lead them towards ownership of their own language process. She first used worksheets for teaching The Outsiders, but after questioning her students on how a book should be taught, realized that the love of reading was missing. When, with Where the Heart Is, she allowed her students to freely select quotes in the text, write about them in their journals, and discuss them in class, her students displayed greater confidence and an increased interest in reading for pleasure.

Abstract:
Looking around a lecture theatre of students majoring in journalism in an Australian university, it may seem fair enough to ask how important it is to teach them about war reporting. How many of these music, fashion and sport-inspired kids are going to find themselves on a frontline? Reading through Owen and Purdy;s book two rationales emerge. The first is that the era of battle-weary foreign correspondents is waning. The second is that the book brings home importance of our profession's reputation for being unbiased.

Abstract:
The article treats digital technologies impact on modern ways of content producing, promotion and consumption. The focus is on interactive book apps as innovative publishing projects that use interactive multimedia content. Interactive book apps are designed for tablets and smartphones and combine different elements (texts, images, video, audio, animation and so on). The author traces back in short e-books prehistory from Kindle gadgets to the time of innovative iPad tablet that resulted in a new generation of e-books. Different types of interactive book apps are highlighted in the article on the base of their purposes and genres (for examp.: fiction, non-fiction, for kids and so on); some of these apps have elements of critical edition. From theoretical point of view interactive book apps can be treated within the frame of the media convergence approach that tends to blur boundaries between contents of different types. Exactly from these stem theoretical and practical difficulties as follows: in the first case – with notions that could be applied to them, in the second one – with tools for their search, identification, systematization and preservation in archives. The article analyzes a number of limitations (technological, software, legal, socio-cultural) that hinder their dynamic development in the modern media system. Main strategies of apps’ output and promotion are generalized and a number of restrictions that hinders their actual development in the media system is analyzed.

Abstract:
For humans, character plays a crucial part in preventing them from leaving their sphere and entering that of servants. The purpose of this study is to examine how character values are taught in elementary school-aged children's Bidayah Hidayah novels in the twenty-first century. A descriptive qualitative research approach is used in this study. The data and material used in this study come from research publications written by prior analysts and combine two sources, namely particular vital information and optional information. A way of gathering data for this study's data collecting was library research. Two things come out of this study's findings: first, individual character; and second, social character. Whereas Imam Al-unique Ghazali's personality links it to adab to Allah. In the meantime, Imam Al-social Ghazali's nature connects it to adab for teachers. Additionally, consider the effects on elementary-aged kids in the twenty-first century. Promiscuity that deviates from the norm will harm society, psychology, and the body as well as undermine morals and have a detrimental effect on future generations. As a result, through the Bidayatul Hidayah book, wisdom is attained since parents and educators can impart the value of religious education as a tool for developing into a perfect human being while also teaching children manners to Allah SWT and to educators.

Abstract:
In “Poor Economics”, Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Duflo have put forward an interesting perspective on how to view the issue of poverty and innovative ways for its alleviation. The lessons in the book are rooted in the 15 years of authors’ research in different developing countries across the globe. They advance the debate initiated by Jeffrey Sachs and William Easterly and prudently bring out the way the poor think and behave. Based on randomised controlled trials, Banerjee and Duflo have enriched this compelling piece of work and shed light on the truth of the poverty trap. The book is divided into two main sections. The first section deals with the private lives of poor and sheds light on the ground realities. This section discusses topics like consumption, health, education and reproduction from the perspective of the poor. It addresses, in detail, questions like why poor people, when they do not have enough to eat, splurge on luxuries like television, DVD players, mobile phones etc. Although the poor do send their kids to schools but it makes no difference to their mental capacity. The authors also show that the poor do not care about medicines but they often indulge in drugs. T

Abstract:
Cancer is a chronic illness that could suffer every people included children. Because of cancer treatment for more than 2 years, some students should postpone their school. Through ‘sekolah-ku’ program, YKAKI Jogja freely gives facility for children getting cancer treatment to continue their study in the hospital and in the shelter home. Children living in YKAKI Jogja were often visited by foreign volunteers and got English literature book donation. They interested in learning English but they felt difficult to use English because English is not their first language. However, the children with cancer have limitation in Learning English caused by: 1) side effect of chemotherapy, 2) less self-confident, 3) less support from their family. The research aimed at finding out the proper learning method to teach English for children with cancer in YKAKI Jogja. The research methods used direct observation and interview in order to gain the research data. In the English class, the researcher used bilingual communication with students and created comfort situation in the ward. Some learning methods were applied during learning English such as playing games, watching English videos, and storytelling. The result of this research showed that the children was more motivated to study English when the researcher combined two of three learning methods in the English class than used one method in that class.

Abstract:
We undertake this study on the Spanish Enlightenment Age book El sí de las niñas, in order to analyze the marriage of convenience or interest and its inconveniences in it, assess the issue in the current African context and propose solutions for the crises generated by this social phenomenon and for the safeguarding of the virtuous in our matchmaking customs. We do it through a socio-critical approach and through objective, comparative, aesthetic and analytical methods. From which the results stand out, according to which Leandro Fernández de Moratín denounces in his comedy the marriage arranged by the parents and advocates weddings with love and mutual consent of the couple. In addition, his theatrical piece is made according to the poetic regulations of the Enlightenment. What makes the work a prototype of a neoclassical genre comedy with a pedagogical setting. By contextualizing the theme of African matchmaking customs characterized by inequality, the predominance of material interest, and determining parental interference, we come to the conclusion that this social phenomenon is still in force to the present day and, therefore, constitutes a factor of stability in the lives of some homes, as a cause of many psychic and lethal damages in others. For what we suggest first, the relativization and moderation in the judgments towards this practice and, later and with perspective, the sanitation of cultural customs, an inclusive legislation on the regulation of parental interventions in the marriage of their kids, formal education and informal pro family.

Abstract:
The research focuses on “front and back stage” such as exposed in in-depth interviews of two drag queens: Mami Salsa and Mami Sisca, the first one from Denpasar, the second from Singaraja in North Bali. Mami Salsa started working as a drag queen in the late 90s and retired from performing in 2020. Having had a wife and children, he dresses as a man and is now considered a senior drag queen; he is not in good health, so he rarely performs and instead mentors young drag queen performers. As for Mami Sisca, “she” stopped performing as a drag queen in November 2019 and now works as a popular English teacher for kids as well as a cat and dog rescuer. She still dresses as a woman, and having gained wide social recognition during her “front stage” drag queen days, “she” is now a respected figure of Singaraja’s community. Socially integrated, both Mami Salsa and Mami Sisca show the type of positive evolution of urban tourism that shows people, place and poverty as aspects of the lives of drag queens. One of the ways that could help ordinary drag queens to follow the steps of Mami Salsa and Mami Sisca would indeed be for the hotel and restaurant association to give full recognition to their performing arts profession. This research advocates the drag queens coalition of Bali to have the pocket book and the web site to make their profession sound and legal.

A review of Druin, Allison. “What Children Can Teach Us: Developing Digital Libraries for Children with Children.” The Library Quarterly 75.1 (January 2005): 20-41. Objective – Through use of an interdisciplinary research team that included children, the study aimed to demonstrate that including children in the design of a digital library for children would result in some new approaches that would improve the site’s usability for the target user group. Design – Case study. Setting – The research was conducted at University of Maryland over a four-year period and involved an interdisciplinary research team of adult researchers from information studies, computer science, education, art, and psychology as well as seven children aged 7-11. Subjects – Seven children participated in the design team over two years; 153 children were observed and interviewed in the design phase; and the resulting new approaches were validated post-launch by analysis of International Children’s Digital Library (ICDL) (http://www.icdlbooks.org) users and usage patterns from November 2002-November 2003 (over 90,000 unique users and 19,000 optional questionnaire respondents). Method – The study included seven children in the design team for a digital library of international children’s books, which resulted in new approaches to collection development, cataloguing, and the search interface. In the design phase, research methods involving the seven children included brainstorming techniques, “cooperative inquiry”, low-tech prototyping; and lab use studies. The team also undertook observation and interviews of 153 children engaged in searching and selecting books from public library catalogues. In validating the new approaches that resulted from the design research, the team employed web log analysis, a voluntary online survey, and working with children in local schools to understand their use of ICDL. Main results – The inclusion of children’s viewpoints in the design stage of the ICDL had an impact in three areas: collection development, metadata, and interface design. For collection development, the research showed that kids were interested in books about children from other cultures and other times in history; in animals, both real and make-believe; in books that are sensitive to other cultures; and in books that are in good condition. For metadata, the research showed that children do not distinguish ‘fiction’ and ‘non-fiction’; look for ‘scary stuff’ or ‘gross stuff’; are often seeking books that make them feel a certain way; care about the look of book covers and may recall books by jacket colours; and use free vocabulary like ‘princesses’ and ‘jokes’. For interface design, the children’s involvement led to more search options (utilizing the new categories of metadata that were created), and customization options such as ability to choose different forms and colour palettes for book readers (e.g. the comic book reader, the spiral book reader). Web log and survey data, as well as lab tests, showed that the innovations resulting from the children’s design input were used. Of the over 90,000 unique users who visited the site in its first year, “genre” and “color” were statistically the fourth and fifth most popular search categories. In lab tests, girls used “color” twice as often as boys, and older boys preferred “genre” while younger children did not pay attention to that category. Conclusions – A first conclusion is that children’s input is vital to creating an online library that meets children’s information needs, tendencies and preferences. Also, seven design principles emerged: 1. Children’s input is invaluable and they should be involved in the design of their libraries. 2. Digital collections for children should consider works both contemporary and historical, and in different languages and representative of different cultures. 3. A variety of search interfaces are needed and it is particularly important to express categories with visual icons. 4. Additional metadata can be needed to reflect children’s views of relevant search criteria. 5. Interfaces should be customizable, such as providing various formats of reader that could themselves be customized in colour. 6. Tools should be suitable for use from the home and for collaborative use, such as use by a parent with a child. 7. Innovation requiring high bandwidth must be balanced with a low bandwidth version to assure broadest possible use. Lastly, the researchers concluded that more research is merited to assess the broader impact of digital libraries on children as searchers and readers.

Abstract:
This article examines Pornoterrorismo (2011), written by Spanish transfeminist poet and performer Diana J. Torres. In this book, the author mixes autobiographical details with personal reflections that have motivated her work and includes a selection of pornoterrorista poetry. Through a close reading of the narrative and poetic voice, this essay shows how Pornoterrorismo constructs a transfeminist discourse of radical negativity based on the discursive figure of the dyke as a fractured, monstrous subject that ultimately expands the realm of queer negativity. First, I focus on how Torres explores the symbolic potential of dyke sexual practices throughout her narrative in order to challenge some of the underlaying assumptions in the original formulations of the antisocial thesis in queer theory originally elaborated by Lee Edelman and Leo Bersani. I will show how the dyke practices that Torres stages and that she describes in detail reveal the gender bias that marks the original theorization of the antisocial turn in queer theory. Second, I propose queer terrorism as a radical antisocial politics of transfeminist negativity. Here, I argue that there is an affective connection between Torres’s performance with the material effects of terrorism that would be, precisely, that of provoking terror in a heteronormative society. Through the affective violence that is given off through her autobiographical account until the adoption of her artistic name, as well as a detailed analysis of her poem «Hijxs de puta» [Kids of Bitches], I will show how queer terrorism shapes the pornoterrorista answer to the attacks of a heteronormative society. Ultimately, this article aims to contribute to the study and delimitation of a transfeminist literary corpus written by its protagonists —texts that share a legitimization of life experience with a broadening, adaptation, or reinterpretation of feminist queer theory, situated in the contemporary Spanish context.

Abstract:
With the advent of the era of integrated media, augmented reality(AR) has been applied in many fields, and has put forward innovative requirements for traditional design forms. The research goal of this paper is to integrate AR technology to realize the visualization of book design, provide new possibilities for new forms of book design, create emotional resonance for consumers, and have certain reference value for the development of book design and the sustainable development of cultural industry. First, this paper uses literature analysis, case analysis, empirical analysis, and questionnaire survey methods to give a relevant overview of AR technology and book design visualization, analyze its research status and application cases. Secondly, using the model hypothesis method, a research model of AR technology and book design visualization was constructed, and the feasibility of the model was analyzed. Finally, the results were evaluated and verified using the survey questionnaire and PSSUQ usability scale. The following conclusions were drawn through the study. First, AR technology can break through the limitations of book design, prompt consumers to change from passive reading to active interaction, broaden the reading perspective, attract more participants, and increase the reading rate. Second, establishing a book design visualization system model with AR technology will have important significance and role, and the model will provide reference value for designers' innovative design concepts. Bring consumers a rich and multi-dimensional interactive experience and adapt to new trends in future development.

Extended AbstractHinode is a solar observation satellite in Japan and its launch was in September 2006. Its name means “SUNRISE“ in Japanese. It has three instruments onboard in visible light, X-ray, EUV to solve mystery of coronal heating and origins of magnetic fields.Hinode has been providing us with impressive solar data, which are very important for not only investigating solar phenomena but also giving new knowledge about the sun to the public. In order to efficiently communicate Hinode data to the public, we organized working group for public use of Hinode data. which are composed of both researchers and educators in collaboration. As follow, we introduce our activities in brief.For the public use of Hinode data, at first, we produced two DVDs introducing Hinode observation results. In particular, second DVD contains a movie for kids, which are devloped to picturebook. Now, it is under producing an illustrated book and a planetarium program. It turn out that the DVDs help the public understand the sun from questionnaire surveys. Second, we developed teaching materials from Hinode data and had a science classroom about the sun, solar observations, practice with PC such as imaging software at junior high school. As the results, they had much interests in Hinode data. Third, we have joint observations with high school students and so on in a few years. The students compare their own data with Hinode data and have a presentation at science contests. The joint observations make their motivation higher in their activities.It is important to record and report our activities in some ways. So, we positively publish papers and have presentions in domestic/international meetings. Though we are supported in budget, resources and so on by NAOJ Hinode Team, we apply research funds for promoting our EPO activities and acquire some funds such as NAOJ Joint Research Expenses and Grands-Aid for Scientific Research Funds since the launch.This way, since its launch, we have continued various and constant EPO activities for the public use of Hinode data and have been giving intense impacts and high interest to the public. As the result, our activities contribute in further extension of Hinode Mission. Those are quite unique and would be reference of other similar ones. Hinode is now operating and solar activities might get more higher.As long as SUN RISE, we would GO FORWARD!!

Abstract:
Admission to Elementary School is a time of transition and it often allows the first contact of the child with a teaching book. Who does this child meet in the book? Which elements of constitution of child being are communicated? In this article, we intend to answer these questions through a qualitative descriptive research, which aims at describing and analyzing social representations of childhood in the pictures of the first part of Ápis Língua Portuguesa – 1º ano (2017). The study departs from the description of elements that constitute pictures for comprehension of social representations (MOSCOVICI, 1978) which are present there, discussing them, based on the concept of language as a constitutive part of the human being (VYGOTSKY, 1989, 2008), and on studies on childhood (STEARNS, 2006). When interacting with the teaching book, students have access not only to knowledge, but also to contact with identity representations. The initial images of the teaching book portrait different origins, as well as physical and individual characteristics of kids. But, diversity of ethnic groups and physical characteristics does not cover social and cultural diversity of Brazilian childhoods, and this does not contribute to student’s subjective constitution.ResumoO ingresso no Ensino Fundamental é momento de transição e possibilita o contato da criança com um livro didático. Com quais imagens de crianças representadas os alfabetizandos se deparam no livro? Que elementos de constituição do ser criança são comunicados? Neste artigo, buscamos responder a essas questões por meio de uma pesquisa qualitativa descritiva, que visa a descrever e analisar as representações sociais da infância nas imagens da parte inicial da obra Ápis Língua Portuguesa – 1º ano (2017). O livro foi selecionado pelo Programa Nacional do Livro Didático (PNLD) 2019 e está presente em muitas escolas públicas brasileiras nas cinco regiões do País. O estudo parte da descrição dos elementos constitutivos das imagens para a compreensão das representações sociais (MOSCOVICI, 1978) presentes, discutindo-as com base na concepção de linguagem como constitutiva do ser humano (VYGOTSKY, 1989, 2008) e em estudos sobre a infância (STEARNS, 2006). Ao interagir com o livro didático, os estudantes não apenas têm acesso a conhecimentos, mas também entram em contato com representações identitárias. As imagens iniciais do livro didático retratam diferentes origens e características físicas e individuais das crianças. Contudo, a diversidade de etnias e as características físicas não dão conta da diversidade social e cultural das infâncias brasileiras, o que não contribui para a constituição subjetiva dos estudantes.ResumenEl ingreso a la Enseñanza Fundamental es un momento de transición y posibilita el contacto del niño con un libro didáctico.

El estudio parte de la descripción de los elementos constitutivos de las imágenes para la comprensión de las representaciones sociales (MOSCOVICI, 1978) presentes, discutiéndolas con base en la concepción de lenguaje como constitutiva del ser humano (VYGOTSKY, 1989, 2008) y en estudios sobre la infancia (STEARNS, 2006). Al interactuar con el libro didáctico, los estudiantes no apenas tienen acceso a conocimientos, sino también entran en contacto con representaciones de identidad. Las imágenes iniciales del libro didáctico retratan diferentes orígenes y características físicas e individuales de los niños. Sin embargo, la diversidad de etnias y las características físicas no abarcan la diversidad social y cultural de las infancias brasileñas, lo que no contribuye para la constitución subjetiva de los estudiantes.Palavras-chave: Infância, Livro didático, Identidade, Representações sociais.Keywords: Childhood, Teaching book, Identity, Social representations.Palabras clave: Infancia, Libro didáctico, Identidad, Representaciones sociales.ReferencesBRASIL.

Abstract:
In this paper, I don’tuse the word of “geomancy” but use “feng-shui”, as meaning a set of method and concept for an assessment for environmental impact against human life. Environmental impact assessment, connected with the feng-shui theory of later eras, first began with xiang-zhai (house and community observation), which appeared in the Zhou Period (770~256 BC.), Spring and Autumn/Warring States Periods(770~221 BC.) in China. Now I recognize the meanings of feng-shuiare indicated two kinds. One meaning is a kind of scientific thought through the ancient environmental impact assessment, and another meaning is a method of divination through judgments fortune-telling items. So I will mention about the Japanese history of feng-shuidivided into two kinds of histories. A number of scholars have pointed out the transmission of feng-shui knowledge to Japan, as recorded in the section of the Nihon Shoki (the Book of the ancient Japanese record) which reads: “In 601 AD, a buddhist monk named Kanroku arrived from Paekche (one of the country, ancient Korea) to Japan. As tribute, they brought books of astronomy and geography (same meaning of feng-shui)...”. After this record, terms synonymous with feng-shui can be sporadically seen in the records of ancient Japan. Continuing, in the Book of Ryo-no-gige (chapter of staff inst- ructions) of the 9th century in Japan, it states that 6 yin-yang practitioners of the yin-yang Bureau (Ministry of astronomical and geographical observations) “shall be in charge of divination sticks and souchi (feng-shui)”. Thus, one of the duties of the yin-yang practitioners was souchi. This was a form of divination and observation topography which was a predecessor of the feng-shui theory. Much later in time, we arrive at the Edo Period (1603~1868 AD.). In Wakan-sansai-zue, or Sino-Japanese encyclopaedia from this Period written by Terashima Ryoan, the compass (which developed later) was called a tokei-shin, and it is explained as “an instrument for determining directions and telling time”. According to Terashima Ryoan, it is a compass, like that used in Japan today for kasou (i.e. divining the fortune of a house from its directions and situation). The tokei-shin described by Terashima Ryoan was a “compass for sea navigation” developed further for sea navigation after the invention of the luo-pan (compass) in the Sung Period in China. This “compass for sea navigation” was a simplified version of the luo-pan for land divination (feng-shui), and until very recently, was used as a compass for small boats in Japan. After the luo-pan using a magnetic needle was invented, there is a history in China of using the luo-pan as a surveying instrument, i.e. as a successor of the previous tugui method based on sun shadow measurement. This was not a luo-pan notched with many graduations; rather, it was a luo-pan which attempted to measure accurate directions and angles by using only one type of graduation. This type of luo-pan was also used in Japan in the Edo Period called “banshin- raban”. In the Edo Period, there was active development of mines, and it was necessary to measure accurate bearings and angles for tasks like excavating mine tunnels. In the some of ancient Japanese written historical records, the synonymous words of “Chiri” (in Japanese), or “Dili” (in Chinese) could be recognized as the “geography” which has been used in ancient China. But we know two letters of “feng (wind) and shui (water)” that are widely used today all over the world. When it comes to the Edo period, the name “fuu-sui”, or “geography=Chiri” can be discovered at the time of feng-shui manual named “Kasou-sho”. A book of “Kasou-zukai or feng-shui illustration published in 1798 is commentary various divination ways in the name of “fuu-sui”. Since then, also in many other Edo periods, at the Kasou-sho manual, words and examples of “fuu-sui” are abundantly found, the knowledge of “fuu-sui” as a method of divination had been introduced to Japan. Currently, examples of I know the oldest word of “fuu-sui or feng-shui” in Japan is in a memorial document of “Engaku temple” in the Muromachi era. But I don’t know now that from Muromachi to Edo era, the term of “fuu-sui” has first used in Japan or not. Appeared in a “topography of Youshuu” in the Edo era and “Engaku temple document” in the Muromachi era, “fuu-sui or feng-shui” do not mean the knowledge of “geography” associated with land observations, but means a method how to judge right and wrong about their environmental conditions. We therefore, can recognize about the meaning of “Chiri” that there were two kinds or more of knowledge in Edo era. A Japanese geographer in Edo era named Nyoken Nishikawa wrote his book (1712). His book tells us an example of meaning of “Chiri”. Nyoken Nishikawa said that ranging from one of the house to the entire earth, “Chiri or geography” have various levels of meaning. “Fuu-sui” means “geographical conditions” themselves. There are good or bad conditions in “Chiri” itself, but not exist in human environmental judgments. “Geography” itself means environmental conditions, so there was no need to judge human environment good or bad. However, in the medieval period, Yin-yang diviner or fuu-sui master in Japan had broken out over wide area and using the name of “Chiri or geography”, explaining about the vicissitudes of descendant life, as a result of their adverse effects do not converge till now. At the time of Japan, there were many Yin-yang diviners preached weal or woe of human life for the common people. As the time passed, they were gradually increasing and Kasou-sho were also gradually increasing. Today in Japan and East Asia, we can take many books of feng-shui judgment and Kasou documents in our hand. These are filled with bothersome non-scientific judgment items. And because there are many different items in each feng-shui manuals, of course these books are fortune-telling books, but we can also find “some vestiges of scientific thought” in such feng-shui fortune-telling judgment items. European awareness about the declination was the end of 14th century, that is to say several hundred years later for China. Chinese direction finding methods and land surveying technology and knowledge, whose development was motivated by feng-shui divination and observation, subsequently spread to Europe (12th century) and Arabia (13th century). Therefore, today we must take another look at feng-shui research, on a global scale.

Abstract:
The subject of this essay is Andrzej Waśkiewicz’s book Ludzie – rzeczy – ludzie. O porządkach społecznych, gdzie rzeczy łączą, nie dzielą (People–Things–People: On Social Orders Where Things Connect Rather Than Divide People). The book is the work of a historian of ideas and concerns contemporary searches for alternatives to capitalism: the review presents the book’s overview of visions of society in which the market, property, inequality, or profit do not play significant roles. Such visions reach back to Western utopian social and political thought, from Plato to the nineteenth century. In comparing these ideas with contemporary visions of the world of post-capitalism, the author of the book proposes a general typology of such images. Ultimately, in reference to Simmel, he takes a critical stance toward the proposals, recognizing the exchange of goods to be a fundamental and indispensable element of social life. The author of the review raises two issues that came to mind while reading the book. First, the juxtaposition of texts of a very different nature within the uniform category of “utopia” causes us to question the role and status of reflections regarding the future and of speculative theory in contemporary social thought; second, such a juxtaposition suggests that reflecting on the social “optimal good” requires a much more precise and complex conception of a “thing,” for instance, as is proposed by new materialism or anthropological studies of objects and value as such.

Abstract:
Objectives The purposes of this study were to explore Korean mothers’ parenting experience related to the sexual health of youth from Third-culture kids in China. Methods A qualitative study was conducted to explore the parenting experience of 10 Korean mothers’ raising youth in China, and the data from individual interviews were analyzed using the content analysis method. Results As a result of qualitative analysis of individual interviews, mother’s parenting experiences related to sexual health were derived into 3 categories and 7 subcategories. The first category is 「Mothers’ parenting experience their youth's sexual health」, and as subcategories, “Limited experience of attending an international school” and “Experience open sexual culture among various cultures and races” were derived. The second category is 「Mothers’ coping skill with concerned behavior」, and the subcategories are “Avoiding sexual health-related conversations” and “Providing related educational materials (books, videos, etc.)”. The third category is 「Mothers' educational needs for their youth's sexual health」, and the subcategories are ‘Lack of information about their youth's sex education’, ‘Necessity of sexual health education in their native language’ and ‘Requirements for practical sexual education needs through the experts. Conclusions From these research results, practical sexual education is necessary so that third-cultural kids can form a healthy gender identity, and research on the development of related educational programs is suggested as a follow-up study.

It’s summer, and there are middle school students running around the university library. Why?St. Ambrose University (SAU) Library held summer camps for 6th- through 8th-grade students in 2018 and 2019. The first was Digital Film Camp, and the second was National History Day Boot Camp. If you work in higher education, chances are good that you’ve heard about the campus demographic cliff and been charged with doing your part to address this enrollment challenge. In alignment with a campus-wide initiative to bolster pre-college summer camps for potential students, the library hosted summer camps for middle school students as part of this community outreach and engagement strategy. The goal of these camps was to offer enriching experiences that create positive impressions of the campus and library.

Abstract:
Various history books as media to learn the history of Indonesia people are actually quite complete and adequate. However, the interest of younger generation, especially the children, to read the books is quite low. Additionally, the advance of computer technology makes kids and students more interested playing game than reading books. The game trend backgrounds the need for research on the use of computer game application as a medium to learn the history of the building through a game. As the special purpose of this research is to obtain a game application that can be a medium of learning historical buildings. The research is divided into two stages: the first stage is to identify gaming software that can be used as an educational game for historical buildings and to develop the model of 3D gaming applications; the second phase is the application trial and implementation at schools.

Abstract:
『Dadian he shang zhu xin jing』 is the most published and valued annotation book in Korean Buddhism. Previous research on 『Dadian he shang zhu xin jing』 has remained at the level where bibliographic research on identifying the author of the book as well as clarifying the meaning of several editions is presented. The received idea that the author of the book was DadianBaotong[大顚寶通] in the Tang dynasty, needs to be re-examined. On the basis of the review of the preface record of 『Dadian he shang zhu xin jing』 as well as the fact that lots of phrases of the Chan Sect in the Song dynasty were cited in the book, it is reasonable to conclude that the author was DadianLiaotong[大顚了通], who belonged to the line leading to the CaoDong sect[曹洞宗]'s TouziYiqing[投子義靑]-FurongDaokai[芙蓉道楷]-ChzntiWeizhao[闡提惟照]-DadianLiaotong. In short, it is clear that 『Dadian he shang zhu xin jing』 was written before Zhang Jiucheng[張九成]'s annotation, which was written between the end of Northern Song and the beginning of Southern Song dynasty. The background of Dadian's writing of 『Dadian he shang zhu xin jing』 is related to the intellectual trends of the CaoDong sect after the Northern Song period. It is worth noting that a number of scripture annotations, including 『Bore boluomiduo xinjing(般若心經)』 and 『The Diamond Sutra(金剛經)』, were written in the CaoDong sect. In addition, the CaoDong sect also presented Songgojip(頌古集) and Pyungchangrok(評唱錄) as Gongan chan[公案禪] became popular. The result of examining what kind of zen monk’s works were quoted in the 『Dadian he shang zhu xin jing』 also shows the characteristics of the trend that was prominent in the CaoDong sect. For example, Dadian cited a lot of Odosong(悟道頌) and Gongan of the monks of Shitou(石頭) sect, and valued Songgo(頌古) works that were championed by the CaoDong sect in the Song period. In addition, unlike other annotation documents, which consisted of didactic stories, the 『Dadian he shang zhu xin jing』 was written in the way that Dadian carefully selected and cited the zen monks’ Chakeo(著語) during the Song period. It is possible that 『Dadian he shang zhu xin jing』 was handed down to Goryeo in the 12th and 13th centuries in the process of vast acceptance of zen monk’s works in the Song period. However, was first published and enthusiastically received at the end of the Goryeo Dynasty, when the Shidafu[士大夫] increasingly levelled criticism at Buddhism. In order to respond to such trend, the Buddhist community proposed the Consistency of Three Religion(三敎一致論), that is, Confucianism, Buddhism and Daoism. 『Dadian he shang zhu xin jing』 had a deep influence on the Quanzhenjiao[全眞敎] during the Song and Yuan period. The book was accepted in earnest at the end of the Goryeo Dynasty as it had content consistent with the theory of unity. In addition, there was an intellectual demand for the critique of Gongan[公案] amid the popularity of Ganwhaseon(看話禪) at the end of Goryeo dynasty. It is also worth noting that the writings of zen Buddhist monks were more widely accepted than those presented in the non-Zen Buddhism[敎宗] during the time when Zen Buddhism led the Buddhist world. In conclusion, the acceptance and popularity of 『Dadian he shang zhu xin jing』 from the late Goryeo Dynasty to the Joseon Dynasty can be attributed to this ideological trend.

Abstract:
The article is dedicated to the study of the literary mirror game with the cultural heritage in the Frank Einstein books by Jon Scieszka. The Frank Einstein books were first translated and published in Ukraine in 2019. This article is the first investigation of the Frank Einstein series by J. Scieszka as a literary game. Six Frank Einstein books (“Frank Einstein and the Antimatter Motor” (2014), “Frank Einstein and the Electro-Finger” (2015), ‘Frank Einstein and the BrainTurbo” (2015), “Frank Einstein and the EvoBlaster Belt” (2016), “Frank Einstein and the Bio-Action Gizmo” (2017) and “Frank Einstein and the Space-Time Zipper” (2019)) demonstrate vivid examples of the literary game in the contemporary children’s literature from the positions of the author as a game creator and the reader as a game opponent. J. Scieszka was born in 1954 in Flint, Michigan, USA. The future writer received a varied education. He attended the military academy, then studied English and pre-med at Albion College for his B.A., and in 1980 received a master's degree of Fine Arts in fiction writing at Columbia University. After graduation J. Scieszka worked as a teacher at an elementary school. Teaching schoolchildren, Jon re-discovered how smart they are. School children turned to be the best audience for the weird and funny stories he had always liked to read and write. The books by Jon Scieszka are based on recognizable archetypal plots and iconic characters, which are not presented to the reader in a conserved form, but focused on the current stage of culture and science development. The writer cheerfully and humorously manipulates well-known plots, rewrites established ideas, and interprets familiar literary themes, motives, characters, etc., presented in world-famous science fiction, well-known to the modern young reader. J. Scieszka says that he got his ideas from other books, his kids, kids he had taught, kids he had learned from, watching movies, playing with his cat, talking to his wife. He also includes allusions to his favourite writers – Cervantes, Kafka, Borges, Pynchon, Sterne, Barth, Heller (Scieszka, 2014). J. Scieszka uses a repertoire of prominent scientific and literary samples in his work, such as the character of the scientist Frankenstein by M. Shelley and the theoretical physicist Albert Einstein, the inventor and businessman Thomas Edison, a fictional character Dr. Watson in the Sherlock Holmes stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the primatologist Jane Goodall. There is a mechanism of mirror doubling in the system of characters: Frankenstein and Frank Einstein, Albert Einstein and Al. Einstein, Klink and Klank, and the complex mirror refraction of Frank Einstein and Watson as Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, Frank Einstein and T. Edison as Sherlock Holmes and Professor Moriarty. The article analyses the well-known literary and scientific achievements that acquire a mirror replay in the books about Frank Einstein. The researcher concludes that the books by J. Sciezska are a source of vivid emotional experiences and motivation for serious readers’ reflection. The author of the article draws attention to the fact that the play field created by J. Scieszka is a product of accumulated cultural content, which activates the human tendency to imitate, assimilate and repeat. This game is a form of conscious assimilation and processing of the universe of intangible and material artifacts, objectified actions and relations created by mankind in the process of mastering nature.

He tried to overcome the division between society and an individual, he opposed the reduction of processes to states and introduced the term “figuration”. Figurations underline the relational and processual character of social reality. An important part of his sociology is the theory of the civilizing process which using a historical perspectives tries to explain social changes. The aim of this article is to recall Elias’ sociology and to show its importance to contemporary trends in sociology. A starting point is the release of a Polish translation of one of his first book titled What is Sociology?

Abstract:
In the scientific literature, the symbols L1 (Language 1) and L2 (Language 2) are used to indicate the sequence of languages. In most countries, L1 is understood as a first language, and it usually coincides with the mother tongue. The other languages are learned later. This can be seen in the children of multilingual parents. Teaching a second foreign language covers everything a student hears and sees in a new language. This includes a variety of discourse activities, such as exchanges in restaurants and shops, talking to friends, reading billboards and newspapers, as well as teacher-student attitudes in the classroom, as well as language activities and books in the classroom. Regardless of the learning environment, the learner's goal is to master a target language. The learner starts the task of learning a second language from scratch (or close to it) and uses the necessary language skills in the mother tongue to determine the reciprocity of language units in the target language.

The considerations presented seek to problematize the normative discourses of developmental psychology, challenging which seems deterministic in them. Without intending to deny the importance of environmental conditions, which can be favourable or unfavourable to the growth and training of people, nor that one should seek to guarantee the best possible conditions for their well-being, it rejects the idea thar there is nothing good to expect from kids who had a rough start. In their own way, many children find ways to get what they need in the environments where they live, even in adverse conditions, making use of the resources and opportunities they find, including relationships with people who become meaningful to them, to resist and live your own life.Keywords: human development; literature; autobiography.PARA APRENDER CON UNA MAESTRA DISTANTE: leer Yo sé por qué canta el pájaro enjaulado, por Maya AngelouResumenEste artículo presenta una reflexión sobre el valor de las narrativas autobiográficas para la comprensión del desarrollo humano, a partir del libro Yo sé por qué canta el pájaro enjaulado, de Maya Angelou, en el que la autora presenta sus recuerdos de infancia, vividos en el contexto de segregación racial en los Estados Unidos en la primera mitad del siglo XX.

A su manera, muchos niños encuentran formas de obtener lo que necesitan en los entornos donde viven, incluso en condiciones adversas, haciendo uso de los recursos y oportunidades que encuentran, incluidas las relaciones con personas que les resultan significativas, para resistir y vivir su propia vida.Palabras clave: desarrollo humano; literatura; autobiografía.

Abstract:
Purpose – The growing importance of knowledge and innovation in the present era motivated the author to study knowledge-intensive business services (KIBS) in general and the case of India in particular. The purpose of this paper is to track in brief the strength of India’s economy lying in growth of knowledge-intensive services (KIS), which if harnessed properly can lead to its transition to a knowledge economy. More specifically, the paper tries to address two important questions: first, what constitutes KIS and KIBS? And second, how has KIBS been performing in India? Design/methodology/approach – The paper makes use of secondary sources of data including various reports, books, journals and statistical tools. An attempt has been made in this paper to review those studies which try to define KIS and KIBS. The data analysis of KIBS in the case of India has been done for the period 2004-2005 to 2011-2012 for which information was available from National Accounts Statistics published by Central Statistical Organization. Findings – The paper concludes that no unanimously accepted definition of KIBS has been given so far. In the Indian context it is defined as; “business services include services like computer-related services, R&D, accounting services and legal services and renting of machinery in order of importance (shares) as per India’s National Accounts”. An analysis of performance of KIBS in India shows that among KIBS there are two T-KIBs (with a technology base), namely IT and ITeS, and that R&D services occupy the first and second position in India’s gross domestic product (GDP), originating from business services (KIBS). R&D services registered the highest average annual growth rate followed by computer-related services, renting of machinery, legal services and accounting and auditing services during the seven-year period from 2004-2005 to 2011-2012. However, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) was highest in the case of R&D services followed by renting of machinery, computer-related services, legal and accountancy and auditing services. KIBS registered a CAGR of 13.04 per cent, which was higher compared to overall GDP growth rate (at 7.36 per cent), and also compared to the CAGR of the real estate and ownership of dwellings and business services segment as a whole (7.62 per cent). Therefore, there is a need to tap the potential of all these KIBS, i.e. knowledge-intense high-tech services (KIHTS) and knowledge-intense marketing services taken in the study through policy initiatives. There is also a need to deal with emerging issues and challenges in KIBS, especially in KIHTS. Originality/value – Although there is empirical research on the KIS and KIBS of European Economies, KIBS in India has not received enough research attention. This paper will therefore mainly focus on the performance of KIBS in India.

Abstract:
The fact that controversies about the past become the subject of public debate testifies to the growing significance of the role of collective memory. In Poland two such controversies emerged recently. The first was triggered off by Jan Tomasz Gross’s book Neighbours that describes the murder committed during the war on Jews by the Polish inhabitants of Jedwabne; the other is a consequence of the actions taken up by the head of the Union of the Expelled, Erika Steinbach, and her many years’ endeavours to create the so-called Centre Against Expulsions in Germany. The matter of post-war “expulsions” divided Polish disputants into adherents of two opposed points of view. One thread of the debate that started in 2000 embraces controversies around the exhibition: “Enforced Roads. Escapes and Expulsions in 20th Century Europe” opened in August 2006 that commemorates the victims of expulsions. The article analyses the press debate around this exhibition in the context of the earlier stages of this controversy. It also describes the changes of relations between the main standpoints and their influence on the ideas of the past.

Abstract:
Recent years have witnessed the publication of a number of research papers and books seeking to assess threats of electoral victories of anti-establishment politicians and political parties, described as authoritarian populists. This essay focuses on three books directly addressing the origins and threats of authoritarian populism to democracy. It consists of six sections and the conclusion. The first section presents findings (Norris and Inglehart) based on surveys of values of voters of various age cohorts concluding that authoritarian populism is a temporary backlash provoked by the post-materialist perspective. The second section examines the contention, spelled out in Levitsky and Ziblatt, that increase in openness of American political system produced, unintentionally, a degradation of the American political system. The third section continues brief presentations focusing on to the causes and implications of “illiberal democracy,” and “undemocratic liberalism” (Mounk). The fourth section examines developments in the quality of democracy in the world showing that despite the decline in Democracy Indices, overall there was no slide towards non-democratic forms of government in 2006–2019. The next two sections deal with dimensions missing in reviewed books; the notion of nation-state, international environment, civic culture and, in particular, dangers of radical egalitarianism to democracy. The last section concludes with regrets that the authors ignored rich literature on fragility of democracy and failed to incorporate in their analyses deeper structural factors eroding democracy: by the same token, return to the pre-populist shock trajectory is unlikely to assure survival of liberal democracy.

Abstract:
This paper is an attempt at presenting the construct of open society as a consequence of the critical rationalist position. The above mentioned position was originally taken by Karl Popper on the basis of methodology of the (natural) sciences. If we accept this interpretation, which is quite different from Bryan Magee’s thesis (though at first glance seeming identical), it will be much easier to capture the factual “weaknesses” in Popper’s political philosophy. The historical context in which his reflections arose (especially his two books: “The Poverty of Historicism” and “The Open Society and Its Enemies”) was not without influence on his proposal, which the author treated as his personal contribution to the fight against the authoritarian and totalitarian ideology.

Abstract:
The e-commerce fashion industry is rapidly evolving. As the seasons change, consumer preferences shift according to context. As recorded during the COVID-19 outbreak, many significant changes in style, behavior, and habits are either for adults or children. Hence, to capture this change, businesses must collaborate with their customers in developing products to avoid failure and meet positive perceptions. A qualitative methodology was used as an approach. Primary data come from interviews, documentation, and question boxes with purposive sampling. Secondary data includes articles, books, journals, and technical documents. The analysis for this study finds the main results for the next new product development by co-creation process. First, there are main preferences that must be put on children's clothing such as soft fabric, adorable, fashionable, and fit size; second, the author developed an integrative collaboration involving external and internal participation, and engagement as requisites for five co-creation processes (co-ideation, co-evaluation, co-design, co-test, and co-launch) in product development; third, participant in this study give a positive response to the product in accordance with ideation proposal and inputs.

Abstract:
Technology is undoubtedly having a major impact on every aspect of our lives and that includes today’s learning environments. It is shaping the way in which students learn, teachers deliver material and the way in which we design spaces for future learning opportunities. It is said that schools aren’t just investing in computer stations and keyboards and we are witness to the fact, based on our planning and design work, and that they are quickly embracing the “constant contact” trends that have changed our global culture. As technology continues to evolve, it brings with it new opportunities and challenges for educators and students. Social networking is a great example of technology that can help — or hinder — education, depending on how it is used and integrated into teaching plans. Privacy and security are two concerns that can come with using social networking in the classroom. It can also become a distraction to students, or even a tool used for bullying. Learning spaces now, more than ever, are being designed to help with communication and information sharing. From tablets used to asking kids to “raise their hands” virtually, to viewing a lecture via Skype or FaceTime, the traditional four walls and a chalkboard are transforming rapidly. According to a recent USA Today article, a New York-based educational technology startup released the first device, an Androidpowered touchscreen tablet, “designed for kids both to take to school and bring home. For sale only to schools for now, the Amplify tablet comes pre-loaded with virtually everything a student will encounter during the school day, including all the textbooks, lessons, tests and e-books she might be assigned. ”

Abstract:
This study examined Chinese edition and records of a Korean institution based on previous studies and actual examination of the Sūtra of Great Dhāraṇī of the Uṣṇīṣa-cittā. In conclusion, following points have been discovered. First, the Sūtra of Great Dhāraṇī of the Uṣṇīṣa-cittā is categorized as Wigyeong(僞經) as it was established during the Tang Dynasty and its structure follows three volumes and one edition; different signatures were marked according to content of each volume. Second, there are Chinese character editions and Seoha editions discovered in Dunhuang, Xia, and Turpan. In particular, Gyeongdang(經幢; a sculpture with engraved scripts in a tower-style stone) style was popular in the 11th and 12th centuries during the Liao Dynasty and Jin Dynasty. Third, in the 12th century (year of 1150, 1156, and 1166) of Korea, Jumun(呪文) of ‘Buljeongsimjineon(佛頂心眞言)’ in Dharani Chongjijip(摠持集; compiled edition of Dharanis) is listed in Siddam characters. These records were discovered in Vairocana Buddha statue in Haeinsa Temple and the editions of the year of 1156 and 1166 consist of in 47 chapters engraved by ‘Jonsim(存心)’ and Eonpyeong(彦平)’, respectively. Among these editions, there is Beomseo Chongjijip prayed by Jahwa(資華) of Bupsoo Temple(法水寺) and the edition in 1150 was corrected and published by Sawon(思遠) in Gwangjaepo(廣濟鋪), a place where old Pyeong was. According to 『History of Goryeo(高麗史)』, Buljeongsimdoryang(佛頂心道場) was held frequently as a Buddhist event to protect the country from war and natural disasters. Three volumes structure can be witnessed in the early 13th century and most of the existing books are designed with portability. It is suggested that these books were created to hope for safety from the war against Mongolia and the military coup. Such practice reflects the background of the time, when esoteric Buddhism was popular among public. Fourth, in the early Joseon Dynasty, there are small-sized books created based on the Goryeo editions to treat and prevent individuals’ disease, disasters, and bad luck. In 1485, the royal kingdom published a woodblock edition with a plaque based on the edition of Ming Dynasty of China for the well-being of the royal family and prosperity of the descendants. During this time, Eonhae edition was printed with Eulhae metal type. This edition was published until the 17th century with slight variations in a myraid of local temples. However, the style on Eonhae portion remained the same. Fifth, the titles of the three volumes of the scripture are different and the marks in each volume appear differently by periods and editions. The first volume lists the virtues of Dharani as Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva pledges to Sakyamuni Buddha; the second volume mentions the virtues and protection gained by memorizing and offering this scripture all the time; and the third volume includes Dharani’s virtues with four spiritual examples. In other words, it includes stories about people eliminating their sins from their previous lives, woman born as a man, healing diseases, defeating evil, getting pregnant, protecting mothers and living in paradise through Dharani. Sixth, this Dharani was engraved and distributed not only in three volumes but also in the form of a single sheet with Jumun(呪文) since the Goryeo Dynasty, and was mainly engraved at local temples in response to the demand of the private sector in the late Joseon Dynasty. As the time goes by, Hanmuneum, Siddam character, and Hangeuleum were selectively applied to Jumun(呪文) as needed and its writing styles including but not limited to Hapja(合字; combined characters), Byeonggi(倂記; write both Hangeul and Hanja character sounds in orderly manner), Gujeolpyosi(句節表示; read by character segments), Jangdaneum(句節表示), Seongjopyosi(聲調表示; high and low character sounds) varied by the ed

Abstract:
Adam Leszczyński’s book Ludowa historia Polski. Historia wyzysku i oporu. Mitologia panowania (2020) [A People’s History of Poland: A Story of Exploitation and Resistance – the Mythology of Ruling] contains a historiosophical vision and covers the entire history of Poland in a manner that has not been seen in academic Polish historiography for years. Leszczyński focuses on analyzing the history of the popular classes. He describes this peasant nation and its work, status, and living conditions, along with the poor state of the countryside; he writes of the humiliating treatment of the peasants in the interwar period, and about popular behavior and revolts, first, for example, in the form of flight from the manor, then in the development of socialist, national, or peasant movements, and later as revolts in rural areas in the interwar period and opposition to collectivization in the People’s Republic of Poland. Leszczyński shows that in the past the peasants had no interest in working well. He presents the working conditions in factories in the early period of industrialization and the emerging conflicts. The author of the essay considers that the facts and phenomena in the history of the peasants presented by Leszczyński may be a good starting and reference point for analyses of very different matters in historiography and in contemporary research. He appreciates Leszczyński’s wide-ranging, anti-elite, and pro-people synthesis.

Статья посвящена первому русскому изданию фундаментальной книги Освальда Шпенглера «Ранняя эпоха всемирной истории». Уделено внимание как общим вопросам теории и методологии истории и археологии, так и конкретным историческим исследованиям немецкого мыслителя. Рассматривается учение Шпенглера о трех основных типах мировоззрения VI–II тысячелетий до н. э.: атлантическом, кушитском и туранском. Выясняются корни христианства во всех трех этих типах. Подчеркивается значимость работ Шпенглера как профессионального историка после «Заката Европы». Проводится сравнение его концепции трех мировоззрений человека с историко-антропологическими теориями Эдуарда Мейера, Кристофера Доусона, о. Павла Флоренского, Эллы Лаевской. The article is devoted to the first Russian edition of Oswald Spengler’s fundamental book “The Early Epoch of World History”. Attention is paid to both general issues of the theory and methodology of history and archeology, and specific historical studies of the German thinker. Spengler’s doctrine of three main types of worldview of the 6th‑2nd millennium BC (Atlantic, Cushitic and Turanian) is considered. The roots of Christianity in all three of these types are clarified. The significance of Spengler’s works as a professional historian after the “Decline of the West” is emphasized. His concept of three human worldviews is compared with the historical and anthropological theories of Eduard Meyer, Christopher Dawson, Fr. Pavel Florensky, and Ella Laevskaya.

Abstract:
Purpose Young children, often called as teenagers (13-14 years) and tweenaged (8-12 years), are the new potential game changers for the big corporate. This paper aims to analyze Arab children’s influence for various products and services and across different buying process stages. The primary survey was conducted to capture a child’s role in family decision-making by analyzing their consumer socialization, influencing strategies and their influence across various products and buying stages. Design/methodology/approach Based on the review and the research gap, a bilingual questionnaire in English and Arabic language was developed. The research study was organized in three stages. It commenced with a pilot study conducted with ten school students in the age group of 8-10 years. The second stage involved contact with the schools by telephone to brief them on the purpose of the study and to request the participation of their students. The last stage was based on the survey conducted in the time period of September-November 2016-17. Findings Almost 25 per cent of the children surveyed prefer to buy stationary and books after discussing with their parents. On the other hand, food/beverage is one particular item where children go ahead and buy theses item themselves even without discussing with their parents (42.50 per cent of the total respondents). As per children’s perception, they are most influential in the final decision stage (mean = 1.84 and SD = 0.499), followed by search and evaluation stage (mean = 1.80 and SD = 0.441) and start stage (mean = 1.79 and SD = 0.488). Research limitations/implications Further research is needed in Arab countries, especially with parents of different social status, as their shopping behaviour is expected to differ. Also, as this analysis is based on child’s perception, parents’ views must also be analyzed for better results. Practical implications The is the first-of-its-kind research in the Gulf region. This empirical research highlights the need for global marketers to understand the distinct features and identity of a young Arab consumer. Despite Oman being a very traditional culture which emphasizes on conformity to group norms and social acceptance and hence confirms to collectivistic culture, where kids are supposed to be obedient, there is this new wave of super energetic, more informed young kids who take their own consumer decisions. Originality/value After going through the extensive literature review of different countries/cultures, there has been very clear understanding that despite being an important family member, almost no research has been focussed on kids in gulf nations.

Abstract:
Abstract There is a growing body of research on variability in the early development of biological knowledge. Most of the studies focus on the variability related to culture and direct exposure to nature, however, there is also data suggesting that parental input plays an important role. In children’s first years of life, parents play a key role in scaffolding development. It is therefore very important to provide a detailed account of how parents contribute to children’s understanding of living things, and how they convey biological knowledge through everyday conversations. The present article provides a review of the literature on variability in biological knowledge and parent-child conversations about biological kinds. It also presents original data from parent-child interactions while viewing picture books. Eighteen parent-child dyads who differed in the level of parental expertise within biology, talked while viewing books containing 24 photographs of animals and plants. The speech analysis specified labeling, perceptual and conceptual descriptions, relational, and mentalistic talk. Parents also completed a questionnaire on the child’s interests. The results showed that biology expert families produced more content overall, and a higher proportion of relational content than lay families. The findings help elucidate the specific role parents have in shaping children’s early biological understanding. In particular, I discuss the role of relational language in shaping children’s ontological commitments.

Abstract:
For thousands of generations, children’s literature has been one of the most powerful tools in providing moral values to children. It employs a subtle technique commonly used to entertain children and at the same time, educate them about rights and wrongs. This kind of literature used human and animal characters usually with a touch of magic which was designed to give entertainment and feed lore to the kids. This study aimed to explore Children’s Literature to examine the issues of its content. The researcher also determined the reasons of the two authors in writing such stories and the perceptions of the parents regarding these kinds of children’s stories. Therewith, the selected five (5) children’s books were first summarized and analyzed. Meanwhile, in both interviews done with the authors and parents, the researcher used a Key Informant and Personal Interview. Ten (10) parents were selected through identifying the age of their child (aged seven (7) and below). The researcher identified the social issues embedded in the children’s stories such as drug, liquor, cigarette, and gambling addiction and illness. Social issues such as this are atypical in children’s literature and this research wanted to determine whether it could help in teaching children’s literature.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper analyzed the scriptures and commentaries cited by Wonhyo(元曉) to review the date when he wrote the Muryangsugyeongjongyo(無量壽經宗要). According to the previous studies, Wonhyo quoted from the Maitreya's Questioning Sutra(Maitreya Fawen Jing, 彌勒發問經) in the book of Zhiyan(智儼)'s the Avatamsaka Sutra Inner Chapters and Other Miscellaneous Kongmu Chapters(華嚴經內章門等雜孔目) and Xuanzang(玄奘)'s the Treatise Demonstrating Consciousness Only(成唯識論). It has believed that Uisang(義相) preached after the year 670 when he returned home with the writings of Zhiyan. However, this paper questioned this view and raised the possibility of writing in the early 650s. The sentences in the Maitreya's Questioning Sutra cited by Wonhyo are almost the same as those in Daoshi(道世)'s the Pini Discuss Essentials(Pini Begging, 毘尼討要), but different from those in the Fayuan Zhulin Biography(Fayuan Zhulin, 法苑珠林). Therefore, it is highly likely that Wonhyo saw the scripture himself or quoted it after seeing the Pini Discuss Essentials. In addition, the scriptures that Wonhyo and Daoshi quoted as the theory of the last ten kinds of hearts of the Maitreya's Questioning Sutra do not currently remain, and are similar to the verses of theory of the last ten kinds of hearts of the Great Treasure Accumulation Sutra(Da Bao Ji Jing, 大寶積經) issued the twenty-fifth part of Shengzhi Lehui(發勝志樂會), which is translated after their death. The phrase of the Discovering the Pure Heart Sutra(發覺淨心經), presented by Jiacai(迦才) as the basis for the theory of 10 ideas, is the same as the phrase of the Discovering the Pure Heart Sutra, which is currently passed down. From this point of view, it is highly likely that the Maitreya's Questioning Sutra was translated in the middle of Discovering the Pure Heart Sutra and The Great Treasure Accumulation Sutra issued the twenty-fifth part of Shengzhi Lehui. The people who brought the Maitreya's Questioning Sutra or the Pini Discuss Essentials to Silla are Jajang(慈藏) and Wonseng(圓勝) who returned to Silla in 643 after studying abroad. These are the people who played an important role in distributing and studying the Quarter Law(四分律) in Silla. On the other hand, the phrase of the Treatise Consciousness Only(唯識論) quoted by Wonhyo is a phrase from the Mahayana Consciousness-Only Theory(大乘唯識論) translated by Zhenzhi(眞諦). Among scriptures translated by Xuanzang, which cited by Wonhyo, the latest translation was the Buddhist Sutra(佛地經論) translated in 649. Based on this fact, it is thought that Wonhyo's the Muryangsugyeongjongyo was wroted until the first half of the 650s.

The study was conducted in the animal field of the College of Agriculture and Marshes / University of Thi- Qar from 12/30/2021 to 3/15/2022 in order to find out the effect of giving celery base and probiotic to the kids of local goats and its reflection on the productive traits. This origin in the study gave 16 formulas weighing 14.5 kg, and performed randomly on a treatment with four replications for one treatment, T1 treatments: Treating the basic ration consisting of (59% barley, 37% bran, 1% urea, 2% salts, 1% vitamins) and without added, T2 (control treatment + addition of probiotic 2%), T3 (treatment of control + addition of celery seed 5%), T4 (treatment + addition of probiotic with celery). The results of the current study showed that the addition of celery seeds and the probiotic/head/day increased the rate of weight and weight gain. The results of the first week of the experiment showed that there was no significant difference in weight despite the presence of an arithmetic increase in favor of the probiotic and celery treatment, with an average of (15.89) kg compared to With the rest of the treatments, in the second week, the moral superiority was in favor of the two treatments (the probiotic + celery and celery) whose average was 16.37 and 16.54 kg, respectively, and through the results we find a significant superiority in the treatment (the probiotic + celery) for the fourth, sixth and eighth weeks And the tenth and twelfth of the experiment, and the averages recorded for their body weights were (17.300), 18.40, 19.30, 20.30, and 21.30 kg, respectively, compared to the rest of the experiment's treatments. As for the total weight gain, the moral superiority was in favor of the probiotic treatment, as it recorded an average of (7.15) kg compared to the rest of the treatments (the probiotic + celery, celery, and the control), where the average total weight increases were 5.41, 5.16, 4.19) kg, respectively. Significant superiority was noted in the daily weight gain rate in favor of the probiotic treatment, as it recorded an average daily weight gain of 85.11 (gm/day) compared to the rest of the experiment treatments (the probiotic + celery, celery, control) and the average daily weight gain values ​​were (64.40, 61.42, 49.88)gm/boom, respectively. As for the efficiency of food conversion, it was a significant superiority in favor of the control treatment, as it recorded an average of (10.23) kg of feed / kg compared to the rest of the treatments (the probiotic + celery, celery, the probiotic) and their recorded averages were (8.65, 7.05) , 6.12) kg of feed / kg of weight gain, respectively.

Abstract:
All the great things may not start from your comfort zone. Also, it is undeniable and something very usual that one needs to step out from the comfort zone to achieve something big. But Nature has its own plans. The way it taught everyone recently during the pandemic, to step out of the comfort zones. It has also given a chance to achieve whatever plans people had from their very own comfortable dwellings i.e., their very own homes. WORK FROM HOME is something that is on everyone’s mouth in the present times when the world is hit hard by a pandemic known as COVID 19 that can be expanded as Corona Virus in December 19. The pandemic brought down every aspect of human productivity and made it confined to their own homes. We have seen the world-famous names such as Walt Disney, Bill Gates and many more who started their journey from their own very homes and now we are stuck in a scenario where we have no other option but to EAT AT HOME, WORK AT HOME, WORK FROM HOME. The kids had no more parks but they need to STUDY AT HOME AND PLAY AT HOME. People are getting ample of time for the things they have always wanted to do but time became a major issue. The teachers of many institutes have now got the time to be double productive with the same input. Could we ever imagine teaching our kids online by creating our video lectures which we send them to study and the same video lectures are being used to be posted online on our own blogs and YouTube channels. On the smarter side if you’re smart enough to upload them on YouTube first and then sending the link to your students. It’s like BOOM to have 100 views in a day. Even the students are much curious to like and subscribe these videos. So, one can easily achieve a great number of followers on their blogs if using the time wisely. Working from home is not only by choice but also a necessity or the need of the hour. Equally important is to keep the students involved and engaged in the online classes. The paper discusses various measures for the same.
