Abstract: The current research aimed to identify the effect of the different types of navigation (pyramid-list) in the rich media on the development of the achievement of students in primary school in the mathematics curriculum. The research problem was limited to the following main question: In the interactive media on the development of academic achievement of primary school students? The research was applied to a sample of (60) third grade students randomly selected from Aws Bin Haritha Primary School in Madinah, Saudi Arabia, during the second semester of the second semester. In the 2017 academic year. Students were divided into two experimental groups, 30 of which were students as a first experimental group, which examined the multiplication facts by means of a hierarchical sailing pattern, and 30 students as a second experimental group. The same multiplication facts were examined by the list navigation style, Both groups have been applied The results of the study were found to be statistically significant at (0.05) between the average scores of the students in the two experimental groups. In the learning achievement test, the main effect of the variation of the navigation style (pyramid-list) in the interactive media is to the benefit of the group that implemented the application through the hierarchical navigation style. Therefore, we recommend that the results of the research be used to urge the education professionals to pay attention to the software production Which are designed by means of interactive media according to scientific technical standards and hierarchical navigation patterns to contribute to the achievement of the desired educational objectives.

Brain activation studies of orthographic stimuli typically start with the premise that different types of orthographic strings (e.g., words, pseudowords) differ from each other in discrete ways, which should be reflected in separate and distinct areas of brain activation. The present study starts from a different premise: Words, pseudowords, letterstrings, and false fonts vary systematically across a continuous dimension of familiarity to English readers. Using a one-back matching task to force encoding of the stimuli, the four types of stimuli were visually presented to healthy adult subjects while fMRI activations were obtained. Data analysis focused on parametric comparisons of fMRI activation sites. We did not find any region that was exclusively activated for real words. Rather, differences among these string types were mainly expressed as graded changes in the balance of activations among the regions. Our results suggests that there is a widespread network of brain regions that form a common network for the processing of all orthographic string types.

Physical Activity Levels

ABSTRACT Background: It is widely known that physical activity has benefits on overall quality of life. Several studies have reported that children with higher physical activity levels had greater whitematter integrity and subcortical structures which critical for learning and memory than children in lower physical activity levels. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of physical activity on the academic achievement in primary school students. Subjects and Method: This was meta-analysis and systematic review. The study was conducted by collecting published articles from Google Scholar, PubMed, Springer Link, and Research Gate databases, from 2011-2020. Keywords used “Physical activity” OR “Academic achievement” AND “Cross sectional”. The inclusion criteria were full text, using English or Indonesian language, using cross-sectional study design, and reporting adjusted odds ratio. The study population (P) was primary school students. Intervention (I) was physical activity with comparison (C) sedentary behavior. The study outcome (O) was academic achievement. The collected articles were selected by PRISMA flow chart. The quantitative data were analyzed using Revman 5.3. Results: 6 studies from Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, Chili, United Kingdom, Spanish, and Norway, were met the criteria 6. This study showed that high physical activity improved academic achievement in primary school students (aOR= 1.44; 95% CI= 1.16 to 1.80; p<0.001, with I2= 94%). Conclusion: High physical activity improves academic achievement in primary school students. Keywords: physical activity, academic achievement Correspondence: Fatchurrohmah Ines Prabandari.

Dementia is a condition caused by and associated with separate physical changes in the brain. The signs and symptoms of dementia are very similar across the diverse types, and it is difficult to diagnose the category by behavioral symptoms alone. Diagnostic criteria have relied on a constellation of signs and symptoms, but it is critical to understand the neuroanatomical differences among the dementias for a more precise diagnosis and subsequent management. With this regard, this review aims to explore the neuroanatomical aspects of dementia to better understand the nature of distinctive subtypes, signs, and symptoms. This is a review of English language literature published from 1996 to the present day of peer-reviewed academic and medical journal articles that report on older people with dementia. This review examines typical neuroanatomical aspects of dementia and reinforces the importance of a thorough understanding of the neuroanatomical characteristics of the different types of dementia and the differential diagnosis of them.

This review surveys relevant and recent data of the pertinent literature regarding the acute effect of alcohol on various kinds of memory processes with special emphasis on working memory. The characteristics of different types of long-term memory (LTM) and short-term memory (STM) processes are summarized with an attempt to relate these to various structures in the brain. LTM is typically impaired by chronic alcohol intake but according to some data a single dose of ethanol may have long lasting effects if administered at a critically important age. The most commonly seen deleterious acute effect of alcohol to STM appears following large doses of ethanol in conditions of “binge drinking” causing the “blackout” phenomenon. However, with the application of various techniques and well-structured behavioral paradigms it is possible to detect, albeit occasionally, subtle changes of cognitive processes even as a result of a low dose of alcohol. These data may be important for the consideration of legal consequences of low-dose ethanol intake in conditions such as driving, etc.
