Analysing Mindset Theory and Strategies Supporting the Implementation of Real PE to Develop a Growth Mindset Culture

Growth mindset continues to be a popular topic of conversation in the field of education and Physical Education (PE). However, despite the existence of various schemes for delivering curriculum PE, there are limited studies analysing how they seek to directly develop children’s mindsets. This study analyses the process taken for one of these frameworks, Real PE, to be implemented within a school to develop their growth mindset culture, drawing upon the theories of key educational thinkers. The study is based upon the authors’ experiences as PE Subject Leader and member of the school Senior Leadership Team (SLT) within a single-form entry primary school in Leicestershire, United Kingdom; testimonials from other schools who utilise Real PE and existing literature on the effectiveness of growth mindset. Implementing a growth mindset culture is not straightforward; although important, it is not solely about intelligence and praising effort, nor a battle of fixed versus growth mindsets as within PE, mixed mindsets exist, and, the fixed mindset should be legitimised. Therefore, a long-term, rigorous approach to change considering policies, individual beliefs, training needs, strategies and feedback methods needs to be developed. This study adds to the growing conversation about growth mindset and seeks to support other school settings considering embedding mindset culture within their school setting and PE provision.

Differences in risk factors associated with single and multiple concurrent forms of undernutrition (stunting, wasting or underweight) among children under 5 in Bangladesh: a nationally representative cross-sectional study

ObjectivesThe study aims to differentiate the risk factors of single and multiple concurrent forms of undernutrition among children under 5 in Bangladesh.DesignA nationally representative cross-sectional study.SettingBangladesh.RespondentsChildren age under 5 years of age.Outcome measureThis study considered two dichotomous outcomes: single form (children without single form and with single form) and multiple concurrent forms (children without multiple forms and with multiple forms) of undernutrition.Statistical analysisAdjusted OR (AOR) and CI of potential risk factors were calculated using logistic regression analysis.ResultsAround 38.2% of children under 5 in Bangladesh are suffering from undernutrition. The prevalence of multiple concurrent forms and single form of child undernutrition was 19.3% and 18.9%, respectively. The key risk factors of multiple concurrent forms of undernutrition were children born with low birth weight (AOR 3.76, 95% CI 2.78 to 5.10); children in the age group 24–35 months (AOR 2.70, 95% CI 2.20 to 3.30) and in the lowest socioeconomic quintile (AOR 2.57, 95% CI 2.05 to 3.23). In contrast, those children in the age group 24–35 months (AOR 1.94, 95% CI 1.61 to 2.34), in the lowest socioeconomic quintile (AOR 1.79, 95% CI 1.45 to 2.21) and born with low birth weight (AOR 1.52, 95% CI 1.11 to 2.08) were significantly associated with a single form of undernutrition. Parental education, father’s occupation, children’s age and birth order were the differentiating risk factors for multiple concurrent forms and single form of undernutrition.ConclusionOne-fifth of children under 5 years of age are suffering multiple concurrent forms of undernutrition, which is similar to the numbers suffering the single form. Parental education, father’s occupation, children’s age and birth order disproportionately affect the multiple concurrent forms and single form of undernutrition, which should be considered to formulate an evidence-based strategy for reducing undernutrition among these children.

Industrial Internet Federated Learning Driven by IoT Equipment ID and Blockchain

With the development of Internet of Things (IoT), 5G, and industrial technology, Industrial Internet has become an emerging research field. Due to the industrial specialty, higher requirements are put forward for time delay, safety, and stability of the identification analysis service. The traditional domain name system (DNS) cannot meet the requirements of industrial Internet because of the single form of identification subject and weak awareness of security protection. As a solution, this work applies blockchain and federated learning (FL) to the industrial Internet identification. Blockchain is a decentralized infrastructure widely used in digital encrypted currencies such as Bitcoin, which can make secure data storage and access possible. Federated learning protects terminal personal data privacy and can carry out efficient machine learning among multiple participants. The numerical results justify that our proposed federated learning and blockchain combination lays a strong foundation for the development of future industrial Internet.

Translating linguistic time

If Sartre is right and the tense of a text holds the key to its special strangeness (1947), how does this strangeness fare in translation? What can we learn from looking at the translation of grammatical tense and aspect in narrative texts in different languages? It is often simply assumed that translating grammatical cate gories of time in languages - because it has to do with what is considered the hard core of language, i.e. the grammar as opposed to the lexicon of the language - mainly involves mere linguistic constraints. Jakobson ’s famous motto (1987: 433) - “languages differ essentially in what they must convey and not in what they can convey”- would therefore suffice to tell the whole story about the way in which linguistic time is translated. This paper argues, however, that this is not the whole story: it argues that the choice of tense in translation is more than just a grammatical agenda, and may actually reflect a number of different commitments. Section 2 examines some intriguing tense changes in the translation of children ’s literature: it discusses the motivations behind these changes and shows that by changing the ‘how’ of the original story through the tense choice the entire subjective perspective of the text is altered. Section 3 identifies a few patterns in the translation of past distinctions in Modern Hebrew. It suggests that in contrast to the more diversified means of translating aspectual meanings in previous decades, a major trend in the last decade or so has been to reduce all past sphere distinctions essentially to one single form, i.e. the simple past tense. Finally section 4 deals with the classical problem regarding the Biblical Hebrew tenses and their translation; it shows that the translation of the biblical verbs may be strongly determined by the different linguistic ideas (and even systematic theories) the translators adopt regarding the Biblical Hebrew tenses. In all these cases then, we observe that the translation of temporal meanings involves not only a commitment to specific temporal interpretations but also a commitment to more subtle conceptions of subjectivity in translation, of literary conventions and linguistic ideas.

A REVIEW ARTICLE ON THE EFFICACY OF AYURVEDIC DRUGS IN THE MANAGEMENT OF MUTRAVEHA STROTAS

Ayurveda an ocean of knowledge talks about almost every form of life. It suggests to us how to live and how to lives a healthy life. In Ayurveda, there is a vast knowledge of diseases and their management. Here we are discussing some drugs which are to be mentioned very much efficient in treating Urinary tract infections. Drugs like Punarnava, Goksuru, Kasa, etc. all having properties to treat this disease condition. By understanding the actions and properties of these we can use them either in a single form or can also make a formulation for treating such disorders. Here we conduct this review to give a small contribution to Ayurveda literature.

Symmetries of the Beijing Heping Temple Complex

Three-dimensional laser scanning technology has been more mature, and its application fields are expanding. It is being used in key projects and important work such as ancient building recording, restoration and reconstruction. In this paper, the technology is applied to the 3D scanning, data splicing and model simplification of Heping temple building complex in Beijing. After innovative research on ancient architecture, it is found that the group layout, single form and local components of Heping temple building complex in Beijing show symmetry everywhere, vividly reflecting the extensive and profound ancient architectural culture and order. This points out a new direction for the development and application of 3D laser scanning technology and opens up a new path for the in-depth study of the protection of ancient buildings in China.

Inclusive Education in Practice: Teachers’ Opinions and Needs

The paper presents a part of the research data from a broader piece of research focused on teaching effectiveness in inclusive forms. It analyses the opinions of the teaching staff at different types of schools on the existing barriers and teachers’ needs related to inclusive education. The research involved N=1.216 teaching staff (98 % teachers) working in Slovak schools. A questionnaire developed by the authors was used and respondents filled it in anonymously in electronic form. The results clearly indicate persistent issues in the inclusive practice, which are in line with the findings of other nation-wide Studies, i. e., missing multidisciplinary teams at schools, too many students in a single form, lack of teaching and specialised staff, limited offer of educational programmes focused on further education

The paradeigma shift

This chapter focuses on the metaphysical innovations Plato introduces in the Timaeus to solve (some of) the difficulties he has wrestled with in the preceding dialogues. It argues that by introducing the paradeigma, Plato reifies structure into a single Form. The paradeigma is all the Forms, which are now primitively structured into one single Form, as qualitative aspects of it. This radical change in Plato’s conception of the Forms brings about an equally significant change in his account of participating in the Forms. Plato comes to endorse a new explanatory ‘mechanism’ for property qualification, that is, similarity, and moves from constitutional to qualitative overlap between Forms and objects. In the Timaeus, Plato enriches his account by introducing efficient causation in his system: the operation of a divine agent, the Demiurge, to implement imitation. Further, the chapter shows how Plato finds in the Timaeus his own solution to the Third Man regress.

Stability Analysis and Existence of Solutions for a Modified SIRD Model of COVID-19 with Fractional Derivatives

This paper discusses and provides some analytical studies for a modified fractional-order SIRD mathematical model of the COVID-19 epidemic in the sense of the Caputo–Katugampola fractional derivative that allows treating of the biological models of infectious diseases and unifies the Hadamard and Caputo fractional derivatives into a single form. By considering the vaccine parameter of the suspected population, we compute and derive several stability results based on some symmetrical parameters that satisfy some conditions that prevent the pandemic. The paper also investigates the problem of the existence and uniqueness of solutions for the modified SIRD model. It does so by applying the properties of Schauder’s and Banach’s fixed point theorems.

Backpropagation Neural Network with Combination of Activation Functions for Inbound Traffic Prediction

Predicting network traffic is crucial for preventing congestion and gaining superior quality of network services. This research aims to use backpropagation to predict the inbound level to understand and determine internet usage. The architecture consists of one input layer, two hidden layers, and one output layer. The study compares three activation functions: sigmoid, rectified linear unit (ReLU), and hyperbolic Tangent (tanh). Three learning rates: 0.1, 0.5, and 0.9 represent low, moderate, and high rates, respectively. Based on the result, in terms of a single form of activation function, although sigmoid provides the least RMSE and MSE values, the ReLu function is more superior in learning the high traffic pattern with a learning rate of 0.9. In addition, Re-LU is more powerful to be used in the first order in terms of combination. Hence, combining a high learning rate and pure ReLU, ReLu-sigmoid, or ReLu-Tanh is more suitable and recommended to predict upper traffic utilization
