From Classroom To Courtroom: Cross-Jurisdictional Legal Protections For Teachers In Student Disciplinary Cases, Sapto Budoyo, Nadea Lathifah Nugraheni, Praditya Arcy Pratama, Mahyuddin Bin Arsat

Hasanuddin Law Review

Legal protections for teachers in student disciplinary cases are increasingly urgent. This study investigates the legal protections afforded to teachers in managing student disciplinary cases in Indonesia and Malaysia, highlighting how legislative frameworks, sociocultural influences, and institutional mechanisms shape teachers' rights and responsibilities. Using a comparative legal approach, the research analyzes statutory provisions, policy directives, and educational practices in both jurisdictions. The comparison indicates that Malaysia offers a more institutionally structured framework by defining school-level disciplinary authority and separating authorized disciplinary measures from individual teacher discretion. This framework balances educator autonomy with student rights, although gaps remain in enforcement and …


Criminal And Administrative Liability For Money Laundering In Automated Digital Insurance Brokerage: An Oman-Centred Comparative Analysis, Omar Musbih, Ghazi Ayed Alghathian Oct 2026

Criminal And Administrative Liability For Money Laundering In Automated Digital Insurance Brokerage: An Oman-Centred Comparative Analysis, Omar Musbih, Ghazi Ayed Alghathian

Hasanuddin Law Review

The digital transformation of Gulf insurance intermediation creates difficulties applying anti-money laundering (AML) rules where customer assessment, transaction processing, and compliance decisions are materially automated. This study examines how Omani law allocates criminal and administrative responsibility for money laundering in automated digital insurance brokerage, using Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) as functional comparators and the European Union (EU) as a supranational benchmark for preventive regulation and systems governance. A doctrinal-comparative methodology analyses AML legislation, penal provisions, electronic-insurance regulation, digital-governance instruments, and publicly accessible judicial and supervisory materials through a qualitative comparative matrix. Three interconnected gaps emerge: a …

From Identity To Monetization: Governing Digital Royalty Management Through Digital Identity In Indonesia, Edmon Makarim, Brian Amy Prastyo, Nadirsyah Hosen, Hamzah Halim Oct 2026

From Identity To Monetization: Governing Digital Royalty Management Through Digital Identity In Indonesia, Edmon Makarim, Brian Amy Prastyo, Nadirsyah Hosen, Hamzah Halim

Hasanuddin Law Review

Platform-economy royalty systems still rely on fragmented metadata, intermediary-controlled databases, and Digital Rights Management (DRM) systems designed mainly for access control and copyright enforcement. Inconsistent attribution, delayed payments, and limited interoperability therefore persist. This article proposes a Digital Royalty Management Model, a governance framework grounded in Digital Identity and digital trust infrastructures. Its architecture links Subject Identity, Digital Object Identity, Rights and Entitlements, Licensing and Authorization, Provenance and Usage, Royalty Entitlement and Allocation, and Payment and Remuneration. Legally, identity assurance can support verifiable coordination of rights-related relationships without substituting for substantive copyright law. Using a qualitative, normative, conceptual, comparative, and …


Problems With The Problem Gambling Severity Index (Pgsi): Is It Fit For Public Health Monitoring Of Gambling Harms? An Analysis With Rasch Measurement Theor, James Close, Ryan Statton Oct 2026

Problems With The Problem Gambling Severity Index (Pgsi): Is It Fit For Public Health Monitoring Of Gambling Harms? An Analysis With Rasch Measurement Theor, James Close, Ryan Statton

School of Psychology

Objective: The Problem Gambling Severity Index (PGSI) is a widely used tool for measuring gambling-related issues, playing a central role in service delivery and national monitoring, especially in the British context. However, it was developed a quarter of a century ago under clinical paradigms of “problem gambling,” raisingquestions about alignment with contemporary public health approaches. This study evaluates the suitability of PGSI for clinical and population-level monitoring, using Rasch Measurement Theory. Method: Rasch Measurement Theory analysis was conducted on PGSI data from national data sets: Health Survey for United Kingdom, Scottish Health Survey, National Survey for Wales, and Gambling Survey …


Continuous Pacing During Lbbap With A Lumenless Lead: A Simplified, Zero-Cost Sliding-Contact Technique, Leonardo Marinaccio Oct 2026

Continuous Pacing During Lbbap With A Lumenless Lead: A Simplified, Zero-Cost Sliding-Contact Technique, Leonardo Marinaccio

Journal of the Saudi Heart Association

Left bundle branch pacing with lumenless leads usually requires disconnecting pacing cables during rotation, creating an electrical blind spot during septal advancement. We describe the "sliding-contact" technique, a zero-cost modification enabling continuous real-time monitoring. Retracting the rubber shroud of a standard sterile alligator pacing clip reduces jaw tension, allowing unrestricted lead pin rotation while preserving electrical continuity. In 42 consecutive cases, LBBAP was successfully performed without complications. Beat-to-beat feedback on QRS morphology, impedance, and injury current was maintained throughout rotation, improving procedural precision and safety without specialized equipment.


Inferior Vena Cava–Left Atrial Connection Hidden Beneath Large Secundum Defect. A Case Report, Alisia Yuana Putri, Muhammad Surya Tiyantara Oct 2026

Inferior Vena Cava–Left Atrial Connection Hidden Beneath Large Secundum Defect. A Case Report, Alisia Yuana Putri, Muhammad Surya Tiyantara

Journal of the Saudi Heart Association

Inferior vena cava (IVC) drainage into left atrium is an exceptionally rare congenital anomaly and may remain unrecognized when associated with a large atrial septal defect (ASD). A 35-year-old-man presented with progressive exertional dyspnea and fatigue. Transthoracic echocardiography, transesophageal echocardiography, and cardiac catheterization demonstrated a large secundum ASD with severe septal malalignment, while systemic venous drainage was interpreted as normal. During surgical ASD repair, an unexpected IVC-to-left atrium connection was identified and redirected to right atrium. Careful assessment of IVC inflow is essential in patients with large malaligned ASD despite normal oxygen saturation.


Literacy Activities To Prepare Mll Students For An Art Museum Visit, Marion J. Tate Oct 2026

Literacy Activities To Prepare Mll Students For An Art Museum Visit, Marion J. Tate

Michigan Reading Journal

This article describes how I prepared newcomer Yemeni students to visit, understand, and learn from museums while also strengthening their English language development and cultural identity. Many students had limited English proficiency; however, they brought rich personal, family, and cultural knowledge into the classroom. To build on those strengths, I used literacy-based activities before, during, and after museum visits. These activities included shared and independent reading with e-books, pre-assessment charts, vocabulary development, guided discussions, reflective writing, collage-making, and student-led decision-making. Each strategy helped students practice English in meaningful ways while connecting museum content to memory, immigration, history, culture, and identity. …


The Case For Ai-Enhanced Professional Learning For Literacy Educators, Michelle Wagner, Laura Gabrion, Judy Bowling, Beth Gonzalez Oct 2026

The Case For Ai-Enhanced Professional Learning For Literacy Educators, Michelle Wagner, Laura Gabrion, Judy Bowling, Beth Gonzalez

Michigan Reading Journal

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly reshaping how educators access information, analyze learning, and engage in professional learning, yet its adoption among K–12 educators remains limited compared to the students they serve. This article examines the potential of AI-enhanced professional learning for literacy educators and argues that professional learning providers must move beyond teaching about AI to intentionally using AI within the design, facilitation, and follow-up of professional learning experiences. Drawing on research related to effective professional development, adult learning theory, and emerging studies on generative AI, the authors explore how AI-enabled tools can support active, collaborative, and sustained professional learning …


Redefining “Back To Basics:” Critical Place-Based Education As Essential Practice, Jeffrey Austin, Rosalyn D. Shahid Oct 2026

Redefining “Back To Basics:” Critical Place-Based Education As Essential Practice, Jeffrey Austin, Rosalyn D. Shahid

Michigan Reading Journal

This article explores how an environmental justice-centered summer program in Wayne County, Michigan, one of the areas most impacted by environmental harm in the United States, uses storytelling, critical place-based education practices, teen advocacy frameworks and local curriculum development to push back on current “back-to-basics” education mandates, including scripted curriculum, skills-dominant instruction, and decontextualized learning.  Using the MAISA GELN Disciplinary Literacy Essentials: Grades 6-12 as a guide, we attempt to redefine what ought to be seen as “basic” in schools to ensure that students can be a meaningful part of building a more just, equitable, and sustainable future for our …


Reading With Dad: A Cross-Cultural Comparison Of Fathers’ Literacy Practices In China And The United States, Wei Gu Oct 2026

Reading With Dad: A Cross-Cultural Comparison Of Fathers’ Literacy Practices In China And The United States, Wei Gu

Michigan Reading Journal

Family literacy research has often centered on mothers, with fathers’ roles receiving comparatively less attention, particularly in studies that examine family literacy across cultural contexts. This study, comparing the literacy practices of fathers with young children in China and the United States, explores cultural patterns of paternal family literacy engagement. The article reveals the relationship between father and child demographic characteristics (age, education, income, child age, number of children, and child gender) and fathers’ literacy involvement in two countries. Using a survey instrument administered to 500 fathers (250 in the United States and 250 in China), the study analyzes fathers’ …

The Anatomy And Physiology Of Signed Language Articulation, Leah C. Geer Oct 2026

The Anatomy And Physiology Of Signed Language Articulation, Leah C. Geer

Society for American Sign Language Journal

Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) receive extensive training in the anatomy and physiology of the oral speech and swallowing mechanisms. However, SLPs who serve individuals using a signed language like American Sign Language (ASL) may struggle to apply their training to appropriately assess and treat signed language productions in such students. Similarly, signed language specialists often lack foundational clinical knowledge to work effectively in the context of signed production. This article provides a detailed anatomical exploration of the primary sign language articulators, highlighting parallels between oral and manual articulators. SLPs learn in graduate school which speech sounds typically emerge at what ages …


Stuttering-Like Behaviors In Asl: Clinical Position Paper On Assessment Considerations And Recommendations, Jody Cripps, Mark W. Pellowski Oct 2026

Stuttering-Like Behaviors In Asl: Clinical Position Paper On Assessment Considerations And Recommendations, Jody Cripps, Mark W. Pellowski

Society for American Sign Language Journal

Assessment of stuttering like behaviors in signed language among deaf individuals will be discussed in this paper. Several assessments have been developed over the years that evaluate deaf children’s American Sign Language (ASL) proficiency, which is a very important undertaking for this population. However, there has been very little discussion in the literature regarding the specific diagnostic tools used to evaluate deaf children’s signed language disorders and dysfluency, such as specific signed language impairment (SSLI) and signed stuttering (Cripps et al., 2016a & b). Although some American deaf children have been ‘informally’ diagnosed with SSLI (e.g., Quinto-Pozos et al., 2011, …

Asl Proficiency Outcomes: Comparing In-Person And Online Instructions, Stephen B. Fitzmaurice Oct 2026

Asl Proficiency Outcomes: Comparing In-Person And Online Instructions, Stephen B. Fitzmaurice

Society for American Sign Language Journal

This study examined whether American Sign Language (ASL) proficiency outcomes differ between in-person and online instructional modes using a standardized external assessment. Twenty-eight undergraduate students who completed 44 credit hours of ASL coursework at a southeastern U.S. university were assessed using the American Sign Language Proficiency Interview (ASLPI). Students were divided into two groups based on graduation cohort: those who completed all coursework in-person (n = 15) and those who completed at least four courses online (n = 13). Results revealed significantly higher ASLPI scores for in-person students (M = 2.47, SD = 0.48) compared to online students (M = …

Authenticity Assurance: Risk Aversiveness & Authenticity Signaling In Local Product Evaluation, Sidney B. Lasley Oct 2026

Authenticity Assurance: Risk Aversiveness & Authenticity Signaling In Local Product Evaluation, Sidney B. Lasley

Scholars Week

Local products are commonly associated with attributes that contribute to perceptions of authenticity such as ethical values, simplicity, and community embeddedness. However, the characteristics often associated with local businesses, such as small scale, informality, and limited standardization, may be signals of uncertainty regarding quality, consistency, or reliability. As a result, perceptions of authenticity for local products may vary across consumers depending on their sensitivity to risk. Across two studies, we examine how risk aversiveness influences perceptions of authenticity and subsequent purchase intentions in a local product context. Study 1 uses survey data to show that authenticity mediates the relationship between …

Elevated levels of stress among nursing students can contribute to negative academic, emotional, and professional outcomes. Through this project, the student team conducted an in-depth examination of nursing student stress and burnout to better understand its prevalence, contributing factors, and potential interventions. The team employed comprehensive search strategies to identify and evaluate relevant evidence. Multiple Johns Hopkins Evidence-Based Practice appraisal tools were used to critically assess the literature, synthesize findings, and determine the significance of the evidence in relation to the …


Influence Of Violent Media On Adolescents, Alli Shattuck Oct 2026

Influence Of Violent Media On Adolescents, Alli Shattuck

Best Integrated Writing

This review article explores the relationship between violent media exposure and adolescent behavior. The research examines how repeated exposure to violent video games, movies, and social media may lead to aggressive behaviors. Symbolic Interactionism and Social Learning Theory are used to dissect the way adolescents engage with violent media. The neurological effects of this exposure are discussed alongside environmental influences such as parental supervision and social groups. Overall, the research establishes the complexities of media influence and suggests that violent media is one contributing factor to adolescent aggression rather than the sole cause.
