Pendidikan Sebagai Pengasingan: Politik Kolonial Terhadap Keluarga Singamangaraja Pasca-1907, Uli Kozok
Paradigma: Jurnal Kajian Budaya
This article examines the post-1907 trajectories of the family of Singamangaraja following the death of Ompu Pulo Batu and the final military campaign of the Dutch colonial state in the Batak lands. It traces how the colonial government integrated his widows and children into the colonial order through internment, Christianisation, exile, and education in Java. Drawing on colonial archives, contemporary newspapers, and mission reports, the article reconstructs the life trajectories of the five surviving sons of Singamangaraja and situates them within the framework of colonial strategies of conquest and stabilisation. The study shows that these policies combined elements of protection, …

Shaping Disease: Colonial Stigma And The Politics Of Health In Banyuwangi, The Early Twentieth Century, Rifa'i Shodiq Fathoni, Skriptyan Noor Hidayatullah Syuhri, Vini’Matu Hikmah, Ardhita Zahra Namira
Paradigma: Jurnal Kajian Budaya
This article examines the colonial stigma attached to Banyuwangi as an “unhealthy region” in the early 20th century, a label used to justify massive exploitation of its natural resources. Using a historical method, this research analyzes how this stigma not only served as a tool for colonial legitimation but also causatively created conditions that triggered ecological disasters and a public health crisis in a previously isolated area. Through an analysis of primary sources such as colonial reports, health journals, and newspapers, this article traces how large-scale plantation exploitation, enabled by the stigma, led to deforestation, uncontrolled labor migration, and poor …

Universalism And Exclusion: Immigrants Through The Lens Of French Law And Media, George Mikhael Taliak, Abellia Anggi Wardani
Paradigma: Jurnal Kajian Budaya
This research examines France’s Immigration Law LOI n°2024-42 du 26 janvier 2024 and its representation in three mainstream media outlets across the ideological spectrum: Le Figaro (right), CCFD-Terre Solidaire (left), and France Info (center). Using Critical Discourse Analysis (Fairclough, 1995) and Maurice Halbwachs’s theory of collective memory, the study explores how legal and media discourses construct symbolic and administrative boundaries of national citizenship. Findings reveal that integration is framed not as civic inclusion, but as the internalization of a singular national identity and memory. Media reinforce this framework through divergent but convergent discursive strategies. At the macro level, the law …

Home-Based Digital Exergame For Children With Developmental Disabilities: Protocol Of A Pilot Study, Jaeeun Kang, Yoomi Shin, Naeun Park, Youngeun Lee, Anna Lee
International Nursing Research Congress (INRC)
Background: Compromised sensory integration, reflecting disruptions in neuroplasticity and commonly observed among children with developmental disabilities (DDs), is associated with difficulties in daily functioning and motor and social skills (Rodríguez-Armendariz et al., 2024). Interventions including sensory integration and exergame approaches have demonstrated benefits for enhancing neuroplasticity and functional outcomes (Cardenas et al., 2022). However, clinic-based sensory integration therapy often limits family involvement. We aim to develop and evaluate a home-based digital exergame for children with DDs and their families.
Purpose: This study describes the procedures for developing and assessing the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of the digital exergame.
Methods: This …

Strengthening Community Health Nursing: A Scoping Review To Update National Practice Standards, Shannan Macnevin, Ruth Schofield, Manal Fseifes, Josephine B. Etowa
International Nursing Research Congress (INRC)
Community health nursing has evolved substantially since the Canadian Community Health Nursing Standards of Practice were last updated in 2019. Increasing health inequities, climate-related health challenges, expanded roles, and greater emphasis on culturally safe, trauma- and violence-informed, anti-racist, and equity-oriented approaches have reshaped how community health nurses support individuals, families, and communities (1–7). The COVID-19 pandemic further accelerated digital and hybrid models of care (8, 9), underscoring the need for updated Standards that reflect current practice realities. This review synthesized recent evidence to guide revisions.
A scoping review was conducted using Arksey and O’Malley’s framework (10) and reported according to …

Extended Meshfree Approach For Crack Statistical Analysis Of Anisotropic Functionally Graded Brazilian Disc Subjected To Traction Load, Hassanein Khalaf, Haider Mehbes, Ameen Nassar
Engineering and Technology Journal
An extended meshless method that relying upon Galerkin formulation is applied on the crack analysis of orthotropic functionally graded Brazilian disc. Weak form is involved to solve the governing equation in the numerical method. In addition, enrichment terms and sub-triangle techniques are applied to improve the accuracy of relevant results. This paper depicts the influence of variation in the crack stretch and non-homogeneity parameters on the values of stress intensity factors using a developed MATLAB program. In the isotropic case, it is clear that when the length of crack increases, SIF increases. Graduation in has more effect in increasing the …
