The Role of Cultural and Environmental Heritage in Post-disaster Contexts: Teachers and Students in Literacy | Chapter 3 | An Overview of Literature, Language and Education Research Vol. 6

Educating individuals about the historical, cultural, and environmental value of their community’s heritage helps them develop coping skills necessary for overcoming challenges and actively participating in post-disaster recovery. Catastrophic events are moments when individuals undergo significant life transitions that challenge their sense of identity and deeply engage them emotionally. This paper, based on a systematic literature review, explores the findings of an exploratory study conducted with teachers who experienced a catastrophic event (an earthquake) and examines the role of environmental and cultural heritage and education in the post-disaster recovery phase, particularly as resources for teaching and community reconstruction. The study involved 23 primary school teachers from Abruzzo, Italy, who lived through the earthquake. A qualitative methodology was employed, using semi-structured interviews to allow an in-depth exploration of the issues through open-ended questions and feedback. Following this, a quantitative survey was developed to further investigate the findings. The results highlight the key role of cultural heritage in helping people redefine their cultural, social, and perceptual environment, particularly the inhabited space, which is understood as a socially constructed territory. Cultural heritage emerges as a powerful tool that can reinforce coping mechanisms, aiding individuals in recovering from the traumatic event. Moreover, the study confirms that cultural heritage, in the post-disaster phase, is crucial for supporting teachers and students in rebuilding their personal, social, and cultural identity. It also identifies protective strategies that mitigate the existential disorientation often experienced after such crises. By fostering mutual understanding and helping individuals accept loss, cultural heritage transforms these experiences into valuable learning resources, ultimately facilitating community recovery. The subsequent application of quantitative tools—one of which has just been developed to reach a broader population of teachers who have either experienced or not experienced the earthquake—could help capture the nuances of the participants' lived experiences more fully.

The Cognitive and Psychological Behaviors of Teens Having Life with Type-1 Diabetes: A Review and Analysis | Chapter 34 | Socio-Scientific Interaction in Diabetes and Cancer and Its Management

Experts believe that juvenile onset diabetes [type 1 diabetes] poses the greatest danger to small children. This is because the body of small children is not fully developed and their immunity is also developing. In such a situation, type 1 diabetes has a deep impact on their body's development and immunity. This is the reason that due to the effects of type 1 diabetes since childhood, they become prone to diseases like high blood pressure, heart attack and stroke. The National Commission for Protection of Child Rights has clearly stated to all the states that children should get such an environment in school, where they do not feel isolated and the process should be inclusive. This thing has not reached the ground yet. The present review paper highlights the cognitive and psychological behaviors of teens having life with Juvenile onset diabetes.

Adolescents' Attitudes Concerning Students with Disability and / or Special Educational Needs in Regular Greek School Context | Chapter 06 | Current Research in Language, Literature and Education Vol. 6

 Disability is a universal condition that may be found in all aspect of our everyday lives. Kids with impairments and/or specific educational requirements attend the educational system, where they must coexist with students from the general population. These teenagers have and develop attitudes toward their classmates who have motor, cognitive, sensory, and emotional challenges, which have an impact on the lives of special needs pupils as well as their social and learning capacities. Many variables influence attitudes, which serve as the foundation for an equitable education. The purpose of this study is to look at the ideas, feelings, and conduct of typical secondary school students toward their peers with special needs in order to foster healthy connections and provide social opportunities for all children [1]. The findings may be used to enhance educational policy in order to make it easier for all pupils to attend school in a similar educational setting, regardless of their problems [2].

Validation and Development of a Moroccan School Quality Evaluation System: A Recent Study| Chapter 7 | Current Research in Language, Literature and Education Vol.4

 Education systems' priorities are currently focused on evaluation. It has an impact on teachers, schools, training, management, educational policy, and design, in addition to learning. There is a need in this sector, notably in teaching and education, where research in Morocco is extremely limited. When evaluating a school with multiple practises and actors, the concept of transferring quality evaluation to the pedagogical side is challenging. The goal of the study is to create and validate a tool for evaluating schools, as well as to propose an appropriate measuring instrument for teaching quality for future inspectorate missions and to present the validation of pedagogical and administrative quality indicators in schools within a rigorous methodological framework. This application provides a dashboard with exact metrics for pedagogical audits of Moroccan-based schools and educational institutions. To choose the appropriate indicators, we employed a variety of methods with the actors who carry out their activities (structured interviews, focus groups, factor analysis, and so on). With our hands, we identified three (03) fields and ten (10) criteria for a quality assessment. Management and strategic planning, administrative and sector management, and educational organisation are the three domains.

A Proposal for a Teacher Training Curriculum on School Violence and Violence in Schools | Chapter 11 | Modern Perspectives in Language, Literature and Education Vol. 9

In the first part of this study, the question of school violence is examined, whether it is violence that occurs at school as a result of external pressures (cultural, social, and familiar) or violence that occurs within the school's organisational structures (institutional violence), and is then reflected in all those involved in the school. When it comes to explaining violence, it can be explained by individual, psychological, and behavioural characteristics, as well as familiar and social elements, and the interaction of each of these aspects. Nonetheless, because school violence is unlikely to go away anytime soon, it is critical that teachers-in-training be prepared in advance to deal with various levels of violence. To this end, a specific subject titled Violence in School: Educating to Intervene, Intervening to Prevent was created for teachers-in-training of Infant and Primary School. In the second half of the article, three instructors from the University of Aveiro's Educational Department (Portugal) describe how, as part of the European Project NOVAS RES, they developed a curriculum for reducing school violence. We hope that our curriculum will inspire other institutions to provide future teachers-in-training with the resources they will need to deal with violence.

An Advanced Study of Health Status among School Going Adolescents in South India | Chapter 2 | Challenges in Disease and Health Research Vol. 5

Introduction: The duration of adolescence is important for human growth and maturation. In India, teenagers are 21.4 percent of the population (10-19 years), which accounts for one fifth of the total population. The health and nutritional status of children in the country is a significant index of national investment in developing their future workforce. In order to maintain good adult health, achieving optimal growth during teenage age is very necessary. Many children's health issues may be identified through the availability of school health services. Via daily school surveys, we can treat and avoid many severe problems in children. The current research was conducted in South India to determine the health status and morbidity trend of school-going adolescents in urban areas.

Materials and Methods: The current research was performed in 2010 in 3 urban schools in the community medicine department's field practice district. A team of physicians, social workers and school teachers evaluated all children in these schools in the age range of 10 to 19 years of age.

Results: There were 210 adolescents participating in the present research. Of these, 72(34.29%) were girls and 138 (65.71%) were boys. 53.33 percent of the adolescents were considered to be normal and 46.67 percent were malnourished, according to the weight for age criterion. It was found by adding height to age requirements that 32.86 percent of teenagers were stunted with boys suffering more than 66.67 percent compared to 33.3 percent of girls. Of all health issues, the dental caries were the most common (41.90 percent).

Conclusion: The study found that teenagers had poor health and nutritional status. In developing countries, including India, nutrition is a prevalent public health issue worldwide. For adequate growth and development of the child, proper nutrition is required. A weekly and periodic health check-up with organized adolescent nutrition efforts, along with oriented health education, would improve the health and nutritional status of these schools in the future for adolescents.

Assessing the Factors Influencing Teachers’ Innovative Behaviour: A Systematic Review| Chapter 13 | New Horizons in Education and Social Studies Vol. 5

 

Innovation is seen as a key to retaining a competitive advantage not just for the individual but also for the company in today's increasingly challenging times. The aggressive rivalry of today demands the willingness and capacity to continually evolve to guarantee that we have the advantage and are at the forefront of success. The rapid changes in the 21st century education system need all teachers to take creative steps. Innovative behaviour is necessary in order to ensure that the education system remains responsive to current trends and innovations. It lacks a thorough identification of its variables, however, which can influence the creative behaviour of a instructor, especially in recent decades. As a research tool, this thesis employed a Systematic Literature Review (SLR). The SLR consists of a research protocol defining the subject to be analysed and the procedure customised to carry out the review. It is the key technique for defining the appropriate literature review and how data is obtained. From primary studies. The phases of the SLR approach are preparing, executing, and reporting the study. The research found that the most dominant factors in shaping the creative actions of teachers in the school sector are leadership and self-efficacy. Detailed empirical studies need to be conducted to see if the factors of leadership and self-efficacy directly or indirectly affect the creative actions of teachers as future mediators and moderators. By filtering papers in foreign languages, using a more comprehensive database and exploring other aspects through in-depth interviews, the analysis can be enhanced. It is recommended that the factors defined be used in multiple settings and focus on non-dominant factors as well. It is hoped that this study will give researchers some insight to further develop this knowledge, especially in the context of Malaysia. Innovative behaviour is a vital place for teachers to develop in today's fast-paced world of education and educational change.

Machine Deep Learning in E-learning: Study of Influence on the Performance of Primary School Students | Chapter 12 | Arts and Social Studies Research Vol. 1

An e-Learning service is a valuable tool that can help school directors, teachers, and students to do various teaching and learning activities online. Such a service can improve the quality of teaching at schools. To examine the practical effect of this service, we surveyed the usage of the e-Learning system in teaching and learning activities in a chosen primary school in Saudi Arabia. The targeted group was students in grades five and six who undertook Math, Science, and English courses in the second semester of the session 2018-2019. In this paper, we develop a questionnaire to measure the satisfaction levels of the targeted students regarding the services provided by the Black Board learning management system (LMS). The main finding of this study is that there is still a gap between the e-Learning theoretical principles and the practice. Students’ recommendations helped us to overcome the difficulties encountered to improve the educational system. One of the main recommendations that we got from our students is to have lecture pictures and posters uploaded on the system before lecture time so that they can review it before class time.
