Teacher’s Expectations for the Era Pandemic Covid 19 | Author : La Ode Ismail Ahmad, Nurlathifah Thulfitrah B , Nuristiqamah Awaliyahputri B | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract : In this discussion, the focus is on a teacher. Why? Because most people learn from a teacher, so it is necessary to be an example and idol by everyone. The example intended a good example for every student, both from his actions or his words. Not only that, a teacher also deserves idolism because he is an example, not because he is an artist, or model, but because he is able to become a teacher who is expected and able to be a positive energy for students. However, what is often seen is that some teachers are completely indifferent to what is required and obliged, so it becomes a problem for the portrait of a teacher in the future. Students become successful, not only because of themselves, their parents, their environment, but also in a very supportive school environment, namely the teacher. Then it needs to be understood that a teacher is indeed very influential. |

| Clinical Adjunct Nursing Faculty Virtual Mentoring Experience:A Qualitative Study | Author : 1Jennifer Reyes, 2Lori Kupczynski , 3Angela Gibson, 4Sunddip Panesar-Aguilar | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Nursing and nursing education have been surrounded by discussions of shortages for many years. The United States lacks qualified nurses to care for its aging and increasing acutely ill population. The lack of qualified nurses stems back to several issues, at the forefront, a lack of qualified nurse educators. Due to the demand for skilled and competent nursing faculty, schools of nursing have been utilizing bedside nurses to teach in the clinical setting. While many are experienced bedside nurses, they may not be formally prepared to teach students. Clinical adjunct nursing faculty are also unique because they may never step foot on a college or school of nursing campus, teaching exclusively at the clinical site. This can lead to feelings of stress and lack of support from the other faculty members. It may also make it difficult to help prepare and guide clinical adjunct faculty as they teach and encounter educational issues without proper training. Mentoring is routinely cited as valuable to new faculty transitioning to the education role. The purpose of this study was to explore a new trend in mentoring, virtual mentoring, and determine if it is of value to clinical adjunct nursing faculty. Guided by a basic qualitative research design, eleven clinical adjunct faculty who have experienced virtual mentoring were interviewed in order to gather their perspective of the process and formulate interventions that may enhance the virtual mentoring process for this faculty population. |

| Solient Features of Didactics of Adult Education – A Modern Approach in 2021 | Author : Dr. Maria Herzog | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract : First of all the term adult education should be defined. According to the definition of the German Education Council (1970)1, adult education/continuing education today is understood to be the "continuation or resumption of organized learning after completion of a first phase of education of varying scope (ibid., p. 197)". Didactics does not only mean the selection of methods, but it also includes planning the respective content to be taught, defining and setting learning objectives, as well as the subsequent evaluation of the course unit (cf. Gundermann, 2019, p. 2). Didactics can be described as the competence to teach learners competently, comprehensively, and thoroughly: Didactic models can focus on content of instruction, models of teaching, and teaching staff (cf. Gundermann, 2019, p. 3). With regard to adult education, these models have been applied late compared to the other educational sectors because adult education is oriented less to state curricula but to the needs and lifeworld of its target groups. |

M.Sc.,Kolapo, Mariam Biodun M.Sc. | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract : Money market instruments play a crucial role in the growth and development of the Nigerian economy. Still, it is not yet vibrant and constrained by the absence of sub-markets and availability of adequate credit instruments required for the smooth operations of the market. The study examine the impact of money market instruments (Treasury bill, Treasury certificates, Certificate of Deposits, Banker’s Acceptances, Development Stock and Commercial Papers) on Economic growth based on secondary data sourced from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Statistical Bulletin and National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) publications for 30 years.

| Encouraging Popular Political Participation and Effective Election Monitoring Through Whatsapp Social Media Platforms | Author : Ikegbunam, Peter .C, Obiakor, Casmir U. | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract : Nigeria and Nigerians have witnessed different kinds of electoral frauds since the return to democracy in 1999. Counting from the 1999 general election in Nigeria, the 2019 general election is the 6th general elections conducted in the country. Unfortunately, none of these elections have been considered to be free and fair as there are always public outcries from one end to another against the results of the elections as a result of lack of transparency in the process. Drawing from this background, this study, examines whether heavy use of WhatsApp platforms by different political parties in the election encouraged popular participation and effective monitoring of the electoral processes. The study which examined a total of 318 respondents sampled from select WhatsApp groups of the two leading political parties adopted the survey research method with the social media engagement and technological acceptance theories as its theoretical framework to ascertain whether the use of WhatsApp platforms by political parties encouraged popular participation among the electorate and determine if WhatsApp platforms were helpful to parties in monitoring the 2019 general election as well as its processes. Findings revealed that WhatsApp use encouraged popular participation and electoral process monitoring. The researchers recommended that the political parties and the electoral umpire should engage more in the use of social media platforms in passing information during, on and after election to encourage transparency in leadership. |
| The Use of Numbers in the Novels of Pu Sunlin | Author : Dr. Umida Mavlyanova | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract : Creating literary creations in ancient China, writers often intentionally used numbers in poems, paired inscriptions, idiomatic expressions, and Proverbs. Skilful use of numbers makes it possible to tell in even more vivid and expressive form, in more detail and accurately about the situation, the problem, and the theory. This can not only enhance the impact of a literary work, but also leave readers with a deep impression and allow them to get aesthetic pleasure. Of course, there are cases when numbers are needed to create techniques in literature, that is, paronomasia, but it is often fascinating and has its own charm. In classical Chinese poetry and prose, numerals are often used. Skilful use of numbers creates an original effect, figuratively expresses the idea and draws the writers mental perception. Numbers not only increase the impact of the work, but also make a deep impression on readers.
PU songlin is the author of an extensive work "Liao-Zhai-Zhi-Yi"("Description of the miraculous from Liaos study"), 16 volumes of which contain more than 400 short stories that do not represent the original genre, but are only a brilliant stylization of traditional Chinese short stories of the VIII—XVI centuries in the style of xiaoshuo. |

| Utopian Feminism in the Background of Revolutionary Europe | Author : Akash Chatterjee | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract : While sociology as a discipline prides in explaining the intricacies of gender and how the various gender roles play out in our society, it is ultimately the chronology and course of history that platters the ideas and events as they ought to have taken place, to fuel the food for thought in other disciplines. Role of women or studies on women have always assumed some special importance in the light of the inherent patriarchy to which womenfolk often found themselves to be subordinated, excluded from the public life and academics, writing. Notwithstanding, the force and tide of time did lead to many upheavals in Europe in the early 19th Century and significance of women although not actively but passively grew up to take a very prominent place in modern History. This paper focuses chiefly on women and their movements in early 19th Century – the coinage of the term Utopian feminism and how revolutionary times call for unprecedented changes both in society and gender role orders. |

| Problems in Millennial Parenting Phenomenological Study in Indonesia | Author : Herdian, Fifi Fatimah | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract : This study aimed to describe the problems in parenting to the Millennial generations and the solutions done by their parents in Millennial caregiving. It was qualitative research. The informants of this research were families; fathers, mothers, and children in millennial generation age namely mothers and fathers as primary informants and children as secondary informants. Criteria of primary informants were mothers and fathers whose children were born between 1995 and 2010. Then the children were those who are closely attached to technology (mobile phones, tablets, computers, etc.). There are 4 mother as main informants. The data collection technique in this study was a semi-structured interview. The data were collected through voice recording devices using mobile phones and stationery. Data triangulation techniques were used as data credibility testing. the finding, it could be concluded that the parents found some problems in their millennial children who liked to play mobile phones, such as they become handphone addicted, difficult to control, lazy, and stubborn. Their lazy habit was started from the intensive use of mobile phones. They discovered many more interesting things from the virtual world than the real world. As a result, when the parents ordered them to do something, they were procrastination on the requests because they did not want to miss interesting things from their cell phones. Problems arising in care come from internal and external influences. The influences can be the guilt of the parents themselves, the last education achieved insight and knowledge. Lack of insight into technology becomes its obstacle. Parents who were low understanding of technology would find it difficult to keep up with parenting because it is the era for the parents to master it. On the contrary, the external influence comes from the environment and culture around the family. An active environment with technology forces children to follow the environment. Parents of the Millennial generation can make their children discipline in using cell phones in various ways namely, confiscating cell phones directly so that children get a strong deterrent effect and advising them wisely in using cell phones. |

| Transhistorical and Transnational James Baldwin in “My Dungeon Shook” or “The Instructional Manual For Black People” | Author : Beugre Zouankouan Stéphane | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract : This review provides an analysis of the great social, cultural, political, intellectual and even anthropological contribution about race relations made by James Baldwin through the first essay of The Fire Next Time. Thanks to this valuable, thoughtful and meaningful contribution about race relations between the white people and the black people, James Baldwin can be characterized here as both a transhistorical and transnational writer, thinker and truthteller. Because his realistic good social, cultural, political, intellectual and even anthropological contribution about race relations in the United States goes beyond the developing issues at the time of writing (the historical context of the essay production, the period of the essay production and the borders of the United States) to become a real transhistorical contribution (meaning is out of historical context and historical period) and a real transnational contribution (meaning is out of the borders of the country mentioned). This retrospective on his essay and its re-evaluation shed light on the visionary quality of the writer and also explore the prophetical quality of his contribution. Due to its realistic message and its effectiveness and visionary qualities, the essay “My Dungeon Shook: Letter to My Nephew on the One Hundredth Anniversary of the Emancipation” may serve as a model-paradigm that can be utilized as an “Instructional Manual” by black people to deal with and to handle white people. And namely, it can serve as precisely “The Instructional Manual For Black People” to deal with and “to handle white people” in terms of useful instructions, guidelines and principles for the sake of the black race. |
| PAREMIC CLICHES AS A SPIRITUAL LAYER OF MULTICULTURAL COMMUNICATION: CULTIVATING RESPECTIVE VALUES FOR EDUCATORS | Author : Oksana Chaika (Cajka), Natalia Sharmanova | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract : The article considers the linguistic and cultural aspects of paremic clichés as expressions of the spiritual layer of national culture in the context of multicultural communication. The research is based on the main theoretical approaches to understanding the importance of paremiology for the processes of multicultural communication, which makes one of the study objectives, and the material describes such theoretical approaches by underpinning the importance of cultivating multicultural / polycultural values for educators as a fundamental skill for reaching out to and teaching various audiences. The paper reveals a set of language means attributable to nomination of spiritual markers of national culture in paremias, which may as well speak of ethnic identity in the multicultural complexity. Multiculturalism and polyculturalism are distinguished as opposing each other ideologies and/or trends despite the shared concept of intercultural engagement and communication. The paper reveals that paremic clichés as language units, firstly, make part of diversified linguistic corpus in any language and, secondly, are respected as a spiritual layer of multicultural communication in the ideologies of multiculturalism and polyculturalism. Finally, paremic clichés may best serve as intercultural similar and/or distinct indicators for cultivating culturally marked values for global educators, which carry on their roles and responsibilities in the light of mission rather than classroom instruction in multicultural / polycultural settings. |
