Abstract:
Process observation techniques for face-to-face interactions were applied in the online environment found useful for identifying some fundamental issues in the design and implementation of computer conferences for training. Key questions were found to include: How receptive will students be to computer conference delivered training; How is effective participation defined online and what participation requirements, if any, are necessary to create a successful learning environment online; What level of formality and degree of structure is useful; What kind of community development or social life is required to support training through computer conference? Exploring these questions about online process and observation provided guidance to those working to develop effective online instruction.

Abstract:
: This study analyzes issues related to the creation and the process of participation of the local population in the management of three state Conservation Units (UCs) in Amazonas. The data were collected in two sustainable use units, Sustainable Development Reserve (RDS) of Uatumã and Juma, and in the Rio Negro Setor Norte State Park (PAREST) in 2011 and 2012. Field surveys were carried out, supported by open interviews and semi-structured, direct, and participant observation on the process of creating the Units and the participation of local populations in the management of UCs. Our data show that, in some cases, the subjects act in the management through a “participative management”, but not participating, as for example in the construction of the management plans, in which the local populations are involved, through “participation passive”, as a source of information or even for the approval of proposals, but without active participation in the process of creating and managing the Unit.

Abstract:
This paper investigates the factors underlying the active participation and quiet observation of subscribers of adforum, an electronic discussion group for advertising educators. Results of an electronic mail survey of the subscribers and a content analysis of the messages posted by the subscribers show that, even though the respondents have a quite positive evaluation of the group, many refrained from contributing messages. Advertising on the internet and ethical issues were the most frequently discussed topics during the study period.

Abstract:
Observations play an important role in the process of teaching astronomical knowledge. Practical observations of astronomical phenomena lead to analysis and explanation based on natural laws and so form the basis of cognitive processes in the education. Evidently the observations are an integral part of acquiring astronomical knowledge. Giving up observations, no matter what the reasons, is equivalent to losing quality in the educational process. It decreases the possible influence over the personal development of pupils and students. At the same time, observation and observational results are important for success in education.Carefully planned observational time has a substantial influence on cognitive and educational processes. It leads to considerably more active participation in astronomy lectures.

Abstract:
The approach of this research are research and development approach which aims to enlarge the given model. The data retrievement technique are observation, an in-depth interview, and document observation. The result of the research shows PBAK program which based on the family in Prenggan is already work but less maximum. The indicators of this research are: first, the minimum stakeholders participation, especially the local government and the young organization, the only active participation comes from the volunteers and the passive participation comes from the target family. Second, the continuation of program constrains by the low understanding of local government, a little amount of human resourcer both in quantity and quality, not independent financial aspect, there are no supporting policy from the local government, low regeneration of KPK volunteers in Prenggan. Therefore, the researcher offers a model enlargement alternative which is the implementation of participative and sustainable program. This result is based on the given main model, which is the partial model because there are no sustainable briefing, and also the low participation of the stake holders. Keywords: The model enlargement, program implementation, participative, sustainable

Abstract:
The 4-H Science: Building a 4-H Career Pathway Initiative was a 3-year collaboration among National 4-H Council, Lockheed Martin, and state 4-H grantees to help more than 50,000 youth in 13 states develop STEM and workforce skills for STEM professions. A mixed-methods design used observations and interviews to assess program quality. Researchers observed 4-H STEM programming and conducted individual and focus group interviews with youth, parents, community volunteers, corporate volunteers, and professionals. Observations were conducted using a validated observational tool, the Out-of-School Time (OST) Observation Instrument with STEM Plug-In. This instrument measured youth relationship building, youth participation, staff relationship building, staff instructional strategies, activity content and structure, and STEM instruction. Findings from the observations and interviews were combined to assess program quality. Sites scoring highest on the OST Observation Instrument reported using quality STEM curriculum, especially National 4-H Youth Science Day lessons. The 4-H STEM programs demonstrated highly evident and consistent youth relationship building (e.g., being friendly and collaborative) and youth participation (e.g.., contributing ideas and taking leadership). Yet, in many cases, STEM youth skill development (e.g., drawing connections to real-world concepts) and STEM staff instructional practices (e.g., discussing how youth could pursue STEM content through their education and/or career) were inconsistent and rarely evident. Recommendations include substantive professional and volunteer development for both STEM competencies and enhanced youth development. The OST Observation Instrument with STEM Plug-In provided a comprehensive tool to evaluate program quality, and it is recommended for use in evaluating other 4-H STEM programs.

Abstract:

This research project examined how people utilized the Dolphin Observation Citizen Science Kit at the Crystal Cove Beach Cottages. This study explored whether this citizen science program successfully engaged people in a recreational setting that is not normally associated with science learning opportunities.

Most research on citizen science programs has focused on projects that attract people who already have an interest in science. This study took place in a location that attracts people who may have weak science identities, which made it possible to learn more about how this audience engages in citizen science programs.

The data showed that people in this setting participated in this citizen science program. People with weak and strong science identities used the kit. This indicates that this type of recreational setting could be further explored as a place to engage people with weak science identities in science education activities.

Abstract:
Background: Society demands increased patient participation in healthcare. One strategy to achieve patient participation during hospital stay in a surgical ward is implementation of handover at the patient’s bedside. The literature discusses the meaning of the concept patient participation, it is therefore important to study if patient participation can be achieved through bedside handover on the clinical ward.Aim: To explore how the bedside handover in nursing was performed on a surgical ward from the patient’s perspective focusing and participation.Method: A qualitative descriptive design with focused observations and informal interviews. A total of 23 observations were done, the analysis was inspired by ethnographic method.Results: Five themes emerged from the analysis: A calm atmosphere, Conditions for participation, To create a sense of “us”, Conversation on equal ground and at last Integrity and secrecy. The patients were active participants during the bedside handovers, they contributed with information and asked questions. The medical vocabulary was simplified and adapted to the patient’s ability. During the interviews the patients stated that the bedside handover created a sense of security and control. The observations showed though, that the patients were not asked to participate nor were they prepared for the report beforehand.Conclusion: This study shows that bedside handover gives the patient a sense of participation in his or her own care and creates a feeling of security and control. The result also shows a need for improvement regarding information, preparation and the opportunity to decline bedside handover, which offers potential to improve the bedside handover’s ability to increase patient participation.
Bakgrund: Samhället efterfrågar ökad patientdelaktighet i vården och ett sätt att möta detta krav är införandet av bedsiderapport på vårdavdelning. Litteraturen förklarar betydelsen av begreppet patientdelaktighet i teorin, det är därför motiverat att genom observation undersöka om patientdelaktighet kan uppnås med hjälp av bedsiderapport i kliniken.Syfte: Att utforska hur bedsiderapportering genomförs på en kirurgisk vårdavdelning med fokus på patientens perspektiv och delaktighet.Metod: En kvalitativ deskriptiv design med fokuserade observationer och informella intervjuer. Totalt genomfördes 23 observationer vilka analyserades med etnografisk data-analysResultat: Studiens resultat mynnade ut i fem teman: En lugn stämning, Förutsättningar för delaktighet, Att skapa en ”vi- känsla”, Samtal på lika villkor samt Integritet och sekretess. Under observationerna sågs att patienterna deltog aktivt i rapporten, de bidrog med information och ställde frågor. Det medicinska språket förenklades och anpassades efter patientens förmåga. Under intervjun uppgav patienterna att bedsiderapporten skapade en känsla av trygghet och kontroll. Dock observerades att patienterna varken tillfrågades om medverkan eller förbereddes inför rapporten.Slutsats: Studien visar att införandet av bedsiderapport får patienten att känna delaktighet i den egna vården och skapar en känsla av trygghet och kontroll. Resultatet påvisar även behov av att genom förbättringsarbete utveckla arbetssättet vidare då brister observerades gällande information, förberedelser och möjlighet att avstå bedsiderapportering. Detta skulle ge potential till förbättring av bedsiderapportens förmåga att skapa patientdelaktighet.

Abstract:
This thesis has two distinct yet interrelated parts. In the first instance, it investigates child domestic work in Iringa ? a small town in the Southern Highlands of Tanzania. Second, it examines the participatory action research methodology that was adopted as part of that investigation. Data were collected by a team of researchers that included children and young people who had themselves been domestic workers. A questionnaire, interviews and focus group discussions were conducted with local leaders, employers of child domestic workers and (both current and former) child domestic workers themselves. An agenda for change - that aimed towards the redistribution of power within domestic working arrangements - was developed on the basis of those data and presented to local government authorities in Iringa. This research makes a number of contributions to understandings of both child domestic work and participatory action research methodologies. First, the thesis contends that child domestic work is a complex activity which (despite its frequently exploitative and abusive character) should not be identified as a purely harmful force in the lives of young employees. The multiplicity of ways in which that occupation is experienced can only be uncovered through the incorporation of a range of stakeholders? perspectives. Second, this research found that notions of ?family? were discursively linked to child domestic working arrangements in Iringa. This has inhibited recognition of child domestic work as ?real work?, and contributed to the exploitation of these young employees. This thesis contends that increased formalisation and regulation of child domestic work would offer an opportunity to reconstruct child domestic workers as ?employees? and thereby improve their circumstances. This research has also challenged prevalent notions of children?s incompetence and shown that young people with minimal formal education can (and should) participate as co-researchers in academic endeavours investigating their lives. However, it has also found that young people?s competencies and interests vary, and that notions of appropriate participatory processes have often failed to take such diversity into account. This thesis contends that more participatory forms of evaluation may allow greater flexibility (and relevance) to be fostered when assessing the ?success? of participatory processes. Academics need to be alert to the alienating effects that (unwittingly) ?judgemental? and (unrealistically) ?perfect? accounts of participatory and action-oriented research processes can have on young scholars.

Abstract:
In negotiating research relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, the question of colonisation runs deep. Often, as a gesture to counter the colonising effects of the research gaze, ‘participation’ is hailed as a methodological solution, as a means of healing and transforming power relations. In practice however, the ethical implications of research activities remain complex and contested (Cornwall, 2008, p.276). Much is written about why participatory methods offer remedial qualities of empowerment to counter colonialism in research, but there is little discussion of what happens when participatory research with Indigenous Australians does not operate as a smooth process of reclamation. Often, researchers avoid accounting for resistance to participation because this is viewed as a personal ‘failure’ to accurately represent the interests of a colonised group. The basis of these assumptions comes from a moral compulsion to alter power relations towards social justice: such logic cannot accept that ‘oppressed’ peoples would reject opportunities for empowerment. Yet, international literature (Kothari, 2001) shows that subjectivities comprising participatory research must be carefully considered when constructing research relationships. Drawing from a case study of my own participatory research experience with an Aboriginal community development organisation in Western Sydney, I consider how a non–Indigenous researcher might approach an understanding of their ethics when attempting to ‘decolonise’ their research. I reflexively investigate my own practice to offer a discussion of the ways in which researchers can understand how they come to determine what is ethical and what is not. My account begins with a description of a case study involving multiple forms of participation over a three–year period, which I explore as a series of ‘invited spaces’ (Cornwall, 2004). Drawing from my case study, I incorporate Foucault’s ethics (2005) by discussing how ethics codes create subjectivities, which not only shape the participants in the research, but also shape the kind of ‘selves’ researchers seek to become through participatory research. I consider the contingencies that have led to the construction of a remedial role for participatory methods in research involving Indigenous Australians by critically analysing the discourses within the National Health and Medical Research Council’s ethics guidelines. This research offers a multi–layered approach to reflexivity, by attending to transparency, interpersonal relationships, and a collective evaluation of the process with participants (Nicholls, 2009). Collective reflection about (re)presenting research findings to a variety of audiences highlights the importance of examining one’s own motives as crucial to ‘ethical’ practice. Researchers seeking to achieve a form of participation without resistance set themselves an impossible task. Resistance is not to be feared, but is to be expected within the mechanics of power relations amongst subjectivities within ‘communities’. Incorporating resistance into accounts of participatory research enables an ability to acknowledge ‘internal conflicts and contradictions’ (Fawcett and Hearn, 2004, p. 211) without deeming participation a failure. I argue that participation is a liminal space between trust and resistance, containing tensions and productive possibilities. By attending to one's ethics (Foucault, 2005), participatory researchers might now understand fluidity, uncertainty, and dynamism within research relationships as a rich source of reflexive work towards countering the colonising gaze.

Abstract:
Environ 3500 conseils d’enfants et de jeunes interviennent aujourd’hui auprès des collectivitéslocales en France. Initiée dans les années 60 et 70, cette forme d’implication et d’engagement s’estconsidérablement développée au point de devenir un vecteur important de la participation des jeunes, unvecteur de transmission et d’éducation aux valeurs de l’engagement, de l’action publique locale et de lacitoyenneté.Peu d’investigations, pourtant, sont allées ausculter, de l’intérieur, dans les assemblées plénières, dans lesgroupes de travail, la manière dont se déroulent ces échanges. C’est ce que cette recherche s’est proposé deréaliser.Le travail présenté ici repose sur une observation d’environ neuf mois d’un conseil de jeunes et plusspécifiquement d’un groupe de travail de ce conseil. Ce sont les modalités de décision, au sein du groupeValorisation, qui ont servies de base à une analyse qualitative. Comment se prennent les décisions entre lesjeunes et les animateurs du dispositif ? Quelle part les jeunes ont-ils dans ces prises de décision ? Si les jeunesimpliqués (étudiant d’environ 22 ou 23 ans pour la plupart) sont bien inscrits dans un rôle de décision par lacollectivité qui les accueille, la recherche montre une réalité beaucoup plus nuancée. Sur la durée, laparticipation se révèle évolutive et inégale. Dans le quotidien, les jeux d’acteurs, l’humour, le poids del’institution…, se révèlent des déterminants importants des prises de décision.Au final de cette navigation dans un univers de projet collectif, malgré une bonne foi affichée, la collectivitésemble pouvoir atteindre le pont d’arrivé qu’elle s’était fixé. Elle propose ainsi aux jeunes impliqués un espacede participation relativement restreint, dans lequel la revendication d’autonomie ne tarde pas à poindre
Approximately 3500 councils of children and youth councils take actions with local authorities inFrance today. Introduced in the 60s and 70s, this form of implication and commitment has considerablydeveloped. It became an important vehicle for the participation of the young people, a vehicle for transmissionand education in the values of the commitment, the local public service and the citizenship.Few investigations, nevertheless, went to examine, from the inside, in plenary meetings and in working groups,the way these exchanges are taking place. It is what is studied in this research.The work presented here is based on an observation, about nine months of a youth council and morespecifically a workgroup of this council. The modalities of decision, in the group Valuation, were used as a baseto a qualitative analysis. How are decisions, between the young people and the facilitators of the device, taken? What part do they have in this decision-making ? If the involved young people (students about 22 or 23 yearsold for the most part) are well registered in a role of decision by the community that hosted them, the researchshows a far more nuanced reality. The participation is evolutionary and uneven on duration. In everyday life,actors' sets, humour, weight of the institution, are shown to be important determinants of decision-making.In the end of this browsing in a universe of collective project, despite a displayed good faith, the communityseems to achieve the arrival bridge it had set. It is thus proposed to the involved young people, a relativelyrestricted space for participation, in which the demand for autonomy is not long in appearing

Abstract:
AbstractIn the broader framework of Living Labs and participatory planning, the essay proposes socially-oriented Urban Living Labs (ULLs) as a possible way of understanding and experimenting with participation in marginalized contexts. It does so by applying a focus on individual/collective capacities and enabling processes to support them. Drawing on the literature and the observation and implementation of concrete cases, the essay proposes a reflection on ULLs as situated environments in which “everyone’s” capacities are formed and tested, thus challenging the functioning of local democracy. This implies a focus as much on residents and local agents as on institutions. The essay proposes a shift from Living Labs to socially oriented Urban Living Labs, in order to foster the social dimension of planning, questioning the mechanisms of involvement and support of the most fragile profiles, often excluded from the political process. The perspective is the implementation of an enabling and mutual learning process through devices to reinforce organizations and people’s ability to reflect on, aspire to, and take action for the transformation of their life context, becoming real agents of change.

Abstract:
In this article, Filippo Bignami and Naomi C. Hanakata mobilize the concept of platform urbanization to investigate the growing influence of digital platforms on citizenship and urban transformation. It sheds light on the intersection between urban transformation process and (urban) citizenship. Using the lens of observation and interpretation, the concept of platform urbanization is also considered a corollary of the virtual/digital as a rising real, immaterial, and planetary political space. In a critical reflection on the implications of platform urbanization, the authors discuss structural and political corollaries of this development and the subsequent need to reconceptualize citizenship today. Furthermore, the article wants to go beyond dominant practices of the present and scan inherent capacities of platform urbanization for possible urban citizenship scenarios. Taking platform urbanization as an inescapable force in contemporary urbanization processes, and by drawing from a heterogeneous set of examples, the article looks at the aptitude of platform technologies to foster an urban condition in which platforms form an immaterial but concrete political condition and explore what it takes in forms of skills to realize a space of inclusion that offers participation empowerment for all.

Abstract:
AbstractCommunities around the world are facing tremendous climate change impacts, among others, sea level rise. Local authorities try to respond to the impacts of climate change by implementing localised adaptive measures to improve capacity. Impacts of climate change are worse in developing countries especially the Sub-Saharans due to inabilities to implement adaptive measures with inadequate resources; hence hindering the ability of communities to adapt to the impacts of climate change. It is the purpose of this chapter to explore the contributions of a local authority as one of the corresponding authorities responsible for enhancing a community’s adaptive capacity and its behaviour to climate change impacts. Interviews, mapping, observation and photographing, were conducted in the Pangani division in Tanzania. SPSS and QGIS software were used for analysis. It was found that sea level rise caused communities to suffer beach erosion, land inundation, saltwater intrusion, changes in fish availability, destruction of infrastructure and vegetation. The local authority implemented localised adaptive measures which improved adaptive capacity. These measures included construction and maintenance of seawall, planting and protecting mangroves and preparation of land-use plans. Also, an institutional arrangement involved different departments, committees and the community at large, with actors collaborating through the local authority in developing community adaptive capacity. This chapter recommends that the local authority should; enhance coordination among actors, make use of spatial analysis tools, mobilise resources and enhance community participation.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter takes the specific context of outdoor play in the Foundation Phase in Wales to explore how children’s activity and participation is mediated through the socio-material affordances of muddy puddles at forest school. The research was underpinned by the cultural-historical tradition of making visible the sociocultural practices and individual participation which shape the child’s experience within an educational setting. The discussion in this chapter is centred upon the following questions: During forest school sessions for pupils aged 4- and 5-years old, what conflicts may be surfaced as classroom teaching staff aim to meet Welsh Government expectations for both outdoor play and self-regulatory skills development? How do these conflicts shape the child’s experience of participating in outdoor play? The analysis draws upon data gathered during 8 months of fieldwork; audio-visually-recorded observations and video-stimulated interviews with classroom teachers and forest school leaders are used to consider an episode of conflict during play in a muddy puddle. We explore, from child and adult perspectives, the institutional values of the Foundation Phase, demands for reception year practice and subsequent expectations about children’s participation, highlighting the mediating messages being given about ‘how to be’ and what competencies are valued in the activity setting of mud play.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter provides information on the role of nematodes in the food web, including their participation in matter and energy fluxes within ecosystems. It highlights that nematodes are both predators and prey for organisms ranging from protozoans to vertebrates, based on gut analyses and direct observations. Functional response experiments, microcosm studies, and enclosures/exclosures in the field can be used to investigate the intensity of these trophic interactions and their impact on individual species as well as entire communities.

Abstract:
Abstract: diagnosis and treatment of bronchial asthma patients with COPD overlapping syndrome (PS) causes lots of challenges. The importance of a true diagnosis in such cases is crucial. It could be done with the help of selective therapeutic methods. Placement of such patients into a special group to divide them from patients with isolated asthma or COPD seems justified due to separate physiological signs, therapeutic care and clinical manifestations. These patients also show higher risk of acute process, low level of lifestyle, suppressed external breath function. The PS phenotype is often found in pipeline production workers. Clinical monitoring of comorbidity of BA and COPD overlapping syndrome is shown in the paper on an example of a worker with long working experience and regular occupational exposure ( with increased MAC levels) to dust with mixed composition at pipeline accessories production factory.

Abstract:
The model of political empowerment in building women's awareness of their political rights has been carried out in various places, but the application of the model of women's political empowerment in the conflict areas has not yet been maximized. This is due to the tradition of political education among women in the conflict has not been implemented. Cultural faktor that do not involve women's participation in the political aspect continue to this day, at least in Aceh. This study is an academic response to a number of phenomena that limit the involvement of women in filling seats in the legislature, both in the Regency and Province. This qualitative based on 5 informants to find information about women's political participation through observation, interviews and participants. Based on the field study, it was found that 20 women who fail to be members of the legislature because do not understanding the political procedures in accordance with the regulations in the conflict area. No special academic participation has been found in empowering women's politics. Not yet found the participation of ulama in empowering women's politics in conflict areas, especially Aceh. According to the author's analysis, this is an important skill to increase women's political awareness in conflict areas. The results of this study can be used by all parties who are interested in increasing women's political participation in conflict areas.

Abstract:
Abstract: The functional state of the central nervous system was determined by the method of variational chronoreflexometry. The calculated criteria for assessing the functional level of the nervous system (FLS, conventional units), the stability of the nervous reaction (SR, conventional units), the level of functional capabilities of the formed functional system (LFC, conventional units) were analyzed. The observation group was made up of medical workers of PCR laboratories during the COVID-19 pandemic. The results were processed by the variational-statistical method with the calculation of average values (M), representativeness errors (±m), the reliability of differences was determined by the Student's t-test using applied statistical packages Statistica 6.0. It was found that the functional state of the central nervous system in PCR laboratory workers is characterized by the development of significant fatigue and depletion of the functional reserves of the central nervous system, as evidenced by a significant decrease in the level of the formed functional system (FSL) from 2.40±0.04 to 2.13±0.095 units, the stability of the reaction (SR) to 66.25-74.54%. The ability of the central nervous system to form and maintain an adaptive functional system of adaptation to environmental factors significantly decreased by the end of the shift in the observation group by 43.12%- 48.01%. The identified features of the functional state of the central nervous system and the working capacity of medical workers in PCR laboratories during the COVID-19 pandemic will be used for further causation of changes in their health status in difficult working conditions.

Abstract. A retrospective cohort study was carried out to investigate the mortality of workers occupationally exposed to dust containing chrysotile asbestos fibers. In its chemical and physical properties, it differs from the fibers of other types of asbestos and is the only type of asbestos that is currently approved for use in many countries of the world. The members of the cohort are current and former employees who have worked for at least one year at the production sites of the complex of enterprises for the mining and enrichment of chrysotile asbestos (JSC «Uralasbest», Asbest, Sverdlovsk region) in the period from 01.01.1975 to 31.12.2010. Of the 35837 members of the cohort, 12729 (35.5%) people died (2373 of them were malignant neoplasms of various localizations, including 10 mesotheliomas), 18799 (52.5%) were alive at the end of the observation period (2015), and 4309 people (12.0%) were censored by the end of 2015. The mean follow-up period was 21.7 years for men and 25.9 years for women. The average age at death was 59.4 years for men and 66.5 years for women. This paper presents a general comparative evaluation of the causes of death of cohort members. Further processing of data obtained is currently underway.

Abstract: Abstract: Today, a request is being formed to prevent the introduction of infection into organized groups by means of the formation of population immunity by methods of specific prevention. Purpose of the work: To carry out the determination of specific IgG antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 in students of a higher educational institution, to determine the number of students in need of vaccination. Material and research methods: The level of IgG antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 in the blood serum of students of a higher educational institution was analyzed. An analysis of the strength of immunity shows that the average value of the CP of positive samples is 11.3. A more significant diagnostic level of CP was revealed, indicating a pronounced tension of immunity in students with a history of pneumonia. Among those with a diagnostically significant positive CP level, more than a third of the examined subjects have lower IgG antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 than the average in this group. Consequently, these individuals require dynamic observation and monitoring of antibody levels in order to ensure timely vaccination. Thus, specific IgG antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 were detected in half of the examined students, which was 55%. It is this group that is subject to immediate vaccination before undergoing industrial practice. A third of students with low levels of antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 need dynamic monitoring of their content.

Abstract:
Democracy cannot prosper without democrats. The challenges facing the democratic transformation in Sudan are immense. This report signified the power-sharing intricacies that had been in place for over two years between the civilians and military. The 25 October coup put an end to that partnership. Nonetheless, people in Sudan are increasingly determined to regain their democratic transition. Building Democracy requires more than extending goodwill. It has always been said democracy cannot prosper without democrats. In context, International IDEA Sudan’s Programme saw the need to explore the perceptions of the main stakeholder in the democratic transition of Sudan, its people. The primary objective of this report is to study the perceptions among the Sudanese population of the motivations for and barriers to democratic participation. The study aims to generate a baseline of understanding to guide the design of further relevant civic education interventions. Methodologically, this was achieved using primary and secondary data sources: Primary data was collected through direct fieldwork using a structured questionnaire, interviews, focus group discussions and key informant interviews, as well as participatory observation. Secondary sources were collated in a desk review of existing academic and public opinion research, such as data from Afro-barometer and the International IDEA Global State of Democracy Indices.

Abstract:
Student-centered pedagogy has been widely advocated in many contexts with student active participation in learning being a central element. Vietnam has adopted innovative pedagogies including child-centered and competency-based teaching to further active learning and develop students’ full potential. This study explores Vietnamese teachers’ views about student participation and teaching roles as they implement these progressive reforms. It also examines pedagogical practices that teachers planned to use and actually employed to support student learning through meaningful participation. Drawing on qualitative analysis of interviews and classroom observations conducted over three years with 47 secondary-level literature teachers throughout Vietnam, we found that student participation as expected by teachers broadly falls into three categories: participation as attention; participation as contribution and collaboration; and participation as autonomy and engagement. Each of these modes characterizes what teachers’ envision of students’ overall engagement, but these modes coexisted in the data in classroom practices. Our analysis shows how ‘hybrid pedagogy,’ a mix of teacher-directed and student-centered approaches, was most used to support students’ active contribution and collaboration. This research contributes to the literature on student-centered learning and student participation in transitional contexts, highlighting the complex processes of how teachers perceive and enact these pedagogical reforms.

Abstract:
Objectives. The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) aims to safeguard the health of low-income, nutritionally at-risk pregnant and postpartum women and children less than 5 years old. This systematic review evaluates whether participation in WIC is associated with nutrition and health outcomes for women, infants, and children, and whether the associations vary by duration of participation or across subgroups. Because of major revisions to the WIC food package in 2009, we prioritized studies published since 2009 and included studies comparing outcomes before and after the 2009 food package change. Data sources. Using electronic publication databases, we conducted a literature search from January 2009 to September 2021 and a targeted search for selected outcomes from January 2000 to September 2021. Review methods. Paired team members independently screened search results, serially abstracted data, assessed risk of bias, and graded strength of evidence (SOE) using standard methods for observational studies. Results. We included 82 quantitative observational studies and 16 qualitative studies, with 49 studies comparing outcomes of WIC participants with WIC-eligible non-participants. WIC prenatal participation was associated with lower risk of three outcomes: preterm delivery (moderate SOE), low birth weight (moderate SOE), and infant mortality (moderate SOE). Prenatal WIC participation was associated with better maternal diet quality (low SOE), lower risk of inadequate gestational weight gain (low SOE), lower alcohol use in pregnancy (low SOE), and no difference in smoking (low SOE). Maternal WIC participation was associated with increased child preventive care and immunizations (each low SOE), and higher cognitive scores for children (low SOE). Child WIC participation was associated with better diet quality (moderate SOE), and greater intakes of 100 percent fruit juice, whole grain cereals, and age-appropriate milk (moderate SOE). Household WIC participation was associated with greater purchasing of healthy food groups (moderate SOE). Maternal WIC participation was not associated with breastfeeding initiation (moderate SOE). The evidence was insufficient for other outcomes related to maternal health and child growth. The evidence generally was insufficient on how WIC participation affects outcomes across subgroups. Conclusions. Maternal WIC participation was associated with improved birth outcomes, lower infant mortality, and better child cognitive development. WIC participation was associated with purchasing healthier foods and with improved diets for pregnant women and children. More research is needed on maternal health outcomes; food security; child growth, development, and academic achievement; and effectiveness of WIC in all segments of the eligible population.

Abstract:
The article analyzes the peculiarities of the media content shaping and transformation in the convergent dimension of cross-media, taking into account the possibilities of augmented reality. With the help of the principles of objectivity, complexity and reliability in scientific research, a number of general scientific and special methods are used: method of analysis, synthesis, generalization, method of monitoring, observation, problem-thematic, typological and discursive methods. According to the form of information presentation, such types of media content as visual, audio, verbal and combined are defined and characterized. The most important in journalism is verbal content, it is the one that carries the main information load. The dynamic development of converged media leads to the dominance of image and video content; the likelihood of increasing the secondary content of the text increases. Given the market situation, the effective information product is a combined content that combines text with images, spreadsheets with video, animation with infographics, etc. Increasing number of new media are using applications and website platforms to interact with recipients. To proceed, the peculiarities of the new content of new media with the involvement of augmented reality are determined. Examples of successful interactive communication between recipients, the leading news agencies and commercial structures are provided. The conditions for effective use of VR / AR-technologies in the media content of new media, the involvement of viewers in changing stories with augmented reality are determined. The so-called immersive effect with the use of VR / AR-technologies involves complete immersion, immersion of the interested audience in the essence of the event being relayed. This interaction can be achieved through different types of VR video interactivity. One of the most important results of using VR content is the spatio-temporal and emotional immersion of viewers in the plot. The recipient turns from an external observer into an internal one; but his constant participation requires that the user preferences are taken into account. Factors such as satisfaction, positive reinforcement, empathy, and value influence the choice of VR / AR content by viewers.

The summative external evaluation report described the program's impact on faculty and students participating in recitation sessions and active teaching professional development sessions over two years. Student persistence and retention in engineering courses continue to be a challenge in undergraduate education, especially for students underrepresented in engineering disciplines. The program's goal was to use peer-facilitated instruction in core engineering courses known to have high attrition rates to retain underrepresented students, especially women, in engineering to diversify and broaden engineering participation. Knowledge generated around using peer-facilitated instruction at two-year colleges can improve underrepresented students' success and participation in engineering across a broad range of institutions. Students in the program participated in peer-facilitated recitation sessions linked to fundamental engineering courses, such as engineering analysis, statics, and dynamics. These courses have the highest failure rate among women and underrepresented minority students. As a mixed-methods evaluation study, student engagement was measured as students' comfort with asking questions, collaboration with peers, and applying mathematics concepts. SPSS was used to analyze pre-and post-surveys for statistical significance. Qualitative data were collected through classroom observations and focus group sessions with recitation leaders. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with faculty members and students to understand their experiences in the program. Findings revealed that women students had marginalization and intimidation perceptions primarily from courses with significantly more men than women. However, they shared numerous strategies that could support them towards success through the engineering pathway. Women and underrepresented students perceived that they did not have a network of peers and faculty as role models to identify within engineering disciplines. The recitation sessions had a positive social impact on Hispanic women. As opportunities to collaborate increased, Hispanic womens' social engagement was expected to increase. This social engagement level has already been predicted to increase women students' persistence and retention in engineering and result in them not leaving the engineering pathway. An analysis of quantitative survey data from students in the three engineering courses revealed a significant effect of race and ethnicity for comfort in asking questions in class, collaborating with peers outside the classroom, and applying mathematical concepts. Further examination of this effect for comfort with asking questions in class revealed that comfort asking questions was driven by one or two extreme post-test scores of Asian students. A follow-up ANOVA for this item revealed that Asian women reported feeling excluded in the classroom. However, it was difficult to determine whether these differences are stable given the small sample size for students identifying as Asian. Furthermore, gender differences were significant for comfort in communicating with professors and peers. Overall, women reported less comfort communicating with their professors than men. Results from student metrics will inform faculty professional development efforts to increase faculty support and maximize student engagement, persistence, and retention in engineering courses at community colleges. Summative results from this project could inform the national STEM community about recitation support to further improve undergraduate engineering learning and educational research.

Abstract:
Job quality, a well-known topic in workforce development circles, is an underutilized but useful lens with which to examine labor market conditions. The Aspen Institute (2020), a long-time advocate for job quality, defines it as “a range of attributes that drive worker experiences: wages, benefits, scheduling, legal rights, equity and inclusion, opportunity to build skills and advance, supportive work environment, and worker voice.” Given the record number of resignations and available job openings, especially in the lower-paid industry sectors, along with popular labor market narratives around the Great R’s (Resignation, Renegotiation, Reshuffle), I wonder to what extent job quality plays a role in the occupational mobility of workers. Occupational mobility includes all potential outcomes an individual has when holding a job. For instance, in addition to the option of changing to another occupation, an individual can remain in that occupation, become unemployed, or leave the labor force. Occupational mobility metrics are an appealing way to explore labor market conditions because they provide a dynamic perspective, while traditional metrics such as unemployment and labor force participation rates tend to be static observations.
