The students enrolled in the class chose to study the theme Brazilian Public Politics. After several debates regarding the theme, the students were separated into three groups and each group chose a subtheme to study. The themes were IDH (index of human development), minimum wage and social security. As an example, a description of the thematic project about the minimum wage in Brazil is presented. The principal results obtained in the study of this theme include a discussion about the potentialities of the theme as a classroom activity in different levels of schooling. As an educational activity, the thematic project demonstrated itself to be greatly relevant, since not only did it provide the learning possibility of mathematics related to the issues studied, but also promoted various discussions regarding the theme, which, in our conception, contributes to the social-critical development of the students. Finally, from the point of view of applied mathematics and mathematics education, the development of a modelling activity from thematic projects showed itself to be a good source of researches.展开更多

文摘In this paper, the authors present a modelling activity developed from a thematic project in the models and mathematical modelling class of the professional master's degree program in mathematics education at the Federal University of Ouro Preto. The students enrolled in the class chose to study the theme Brazilian Public Politics. After several debates regarding the theme, the students were separated into three groups and each group chose a subtheme to study. The themes were IDH (index of human development), minimum wage and social security. As an example, a description of the thematic project about the minimum wage in Brazil is presented. The principal results obtained in the study of this theme include a discussion about the potentialities of the theme as a classroom activity in different levels of schooling. As an educational activity, the thematic project demonstrated itself to be greatly relevant, since not only did it provide the learning possibility of mathematics related to the issues studied, but also promoted various discussions regarding the theme, which, in our conception, contributes to the social-critical development of the students. Finally, from the point of view of applied mathematics and mathematics education, the development of a modelling activity from thematic projects showed itself to be a good source of researches.

文摘This study investigates the psychological and cultural motivations that underpin charitable giving in Sri Lanka,with particular attention to whether such behaviour can be considered genuinely altruistic.While charitable acts are commonly perceived as selfless,this research highlights the complex and often contradictory nature of the motivations involved.Using a qualitative approach,semi-structured interviews were conducted with individuals who regularly engage in charitable activities.Thematic analysis revealed three overarching categories of motivation.The first,obliged motives stem from social expectations and religious duty.The second,independent motives reflect personal values and intrinsic satisfaction.The third,ambivalent motives are a novel category that captures the simultaneous interplay between self-serving and other-oriented intentions.The emergence of ambivalent motives is especially significant,as it challenges binary distinctions between altruism and egoism,suggesting that charitable giving frequently serves psychological,social,and existential needs alongside prosocial goals.The findings support established psychological frameworks such as Self-Determination Theory and the Theory of Planned Behavior,while also highlighting the unique cultural dynamics of Sri Lankan society,particularly the influence of Buddhist ethics and collectivist values.These cultural factors shape both the meaning and practice of giving,embedding it within broader narratives of moral obligation,social harmony,and spiritual merit.Ultimately,the study concludes that while charitable giving in Sri Lanka may outwardly appear altruistic,it is often driven by a complex mixture of internal and external motives,suggesting that authenticity in giving is rarely absolute but rather contextually and psychologically mediated.

文摘Social Network Theory and methods have emerged as pivotal tools for dissecting intricate interdisciplinary issues in rural communities.This study aims to systematically delineate the application characteristics and trends of Social Network Analysis(SNA)in rural community research.Using a twofold approach,we integrate a traditional literature review and CiteSpace bibliometric analysis to assess the application status and evolutionary trends of SNA methods in this context.The key findings include the following:①Chinese research trends:scholars predominantly concentrate on the“three rural”issues(related to agriculture,rural areas,and small-scale farmers)and social support mechanisms for vulnerable rural populations.With policy shifts,rural revitalization,tourism,governance,social trust,and multi-dimensional poverty are poised to emerge as hot topics for the future.For further refinement,we suggest that the application of SNA in rural community research could benefit from content expansion,long-term studies,and innovative modelling techniques.②Research by international scholars has been primarily directed toward the physical and mental health of rural residents,as well as socioeconomic issues.Despite these studies covering a range of typical cases across various nations,a conspicuous lack of thorough,systematic,and prolonged efforts focused on rural community development in specific regions remains.Additionally,health issues affecting rural residents are expected to sustain long-standing and focused international academic attention.This study contributes to a more nuanced understanding of the current applications and potential future directions of SNA in rural community studies,both in China and internationally.
文摘In this study,our goal is to identify the land surface that has been polluted/degraded by petroleum products or other identified causes through laboratory analysis,to assess the depth of current contamination and to identify the specific causes of contamination.The level of contamination will be assessed by analyzing a total of 90 soil samples,both within the first 30 cm depth and within the 30-60 cm interval.The potential impact of the petroleum activities and their effects on the environment and agricultural development in the area will be evaluated by studying the distribution of the chemical elements analyzed,particularly total petroleum hydrocarbons(TPH).In addition,a thematic map was created using MapSys 10.0 software based on their distribution,indicating the polluted areas using color codes and values.This analysis and mapping revealed that 7,473 square meters of the site were severely contaminated at 30 cm,representing approximately 25% of the site.
