Identification of Employee’s Behaviors that Triggers an Improvement of Motivation, Creativity, and Collaboration: A Case Study in the Luxury Industry Catel Marine1, Segonds Frédéric2, Aoussat Améziane3, Lavarde Marc4, Caillens Pamela5, Mantelet Fabrice6, 1,5, Cartier Internnational, 10 cité du Retiro, 75008 Paris, France, 2,3,6 Laboratoire de Conception de Produits et Innovation (LCPI) – EA 3927 Arts et Métiers Institute of Technology, HESAM Université, 151 Boulevard de l’Hôpital, 75013, Paris, France, 4 Ecole de Biologie Industrielle (EBI), Cergy-Pontoise, France Innovation Labs within companies have the dual objective of accelerating innovation projects and spreading a culture of innovation. The various tools and methods developed by the Labs, such as hackathons, challenges, and workshops, foster collaboration, and creativity among employees (O'Connor, 2018). Implementing participant follow-up systems is key to optimizing the success of the mission of these Labs (Osorio, 2019). This paper evaluates the long-term impact of collaborative workshops organized and facilitated by two Innovation Labs in the luxury sector. This study concerns the analysis of the responses of 172 participants, interviewed between 6 months and 3 years after their participation in a workshop. The analysis of the results allowed us to demonstrate that the collaborative workshops organized have durably modified how employees work. The main transformations are the increase of creativity, collaboration, and motivation. Some actions spontaneously implemented by the participants following the workshops favor these long-term transformations. We have structured these 10 actions in a transformative path composed of 3 chronological groups: peer to peer, learning by doing, and new automatisms. The perspective of this research is to support the innovation Labs to optimize the appropriation of new mindsets and work methods by optimizing learning and transformative experiences.

The Influence of Constitutional Texts on the Conviction of the Criminal Judge Asst.Prof. Dr. Khaled Kadhem Auda1, Asst. Lec. Mohammed Hasan Kadhim2, 1,2Presidency of University of Thi-Qar -Iraq Criminal law is based on a number of important principles. These principles together constitute a safety valve for all individuals addressed to the provisions of the rules of this important law. This law is entrusted with the task of ensuring the protection of the rights of individuals. It also provides stability to their legal positions. Legislators gave this law a great deal of interest in the various constitutional systems as constitutions are the center of balance between both power and freedom. Therefore, they include a number of important principles and other rules that together constitute important guarantees for individuals against criminalization and punishment. They represent the aspect of constitutional legitimacy of the rules of criminal law Which, in turn, has the greatest effect on influencing the criminal judge because of the superiority of those rules over other legal rules in the state.

Fourth Industrial Revolution Skills as Influential Factors of Mathematics Performance Vanda Kay B. Bicar, Western Harnett High School, North Carolina, United States, Email: bicarvandakay@gmail.com The primary goal was to develop a structural model on emotional intelligence, critical thinking and creativity towards mathematics performance. Emotional intelligence, critical thinking, and creativity are important skills as we gear towards the 4th Industrial Revolution. The pandemic provided an opportunity for new teaching-learning modalities, which paved the way on how these skills predict performance. The study revealed that the level of Mathematics performance did not meet the expectations set by the K-12 curriculum despite displaying a high level of emotional intelligence. Their level of critical thinking was low, and creativity was very low. The study ascertained the existing positive correlations between critical thinking, emotional intelligence, and creativity with mathematics performance using the Pearson Product Moment Correlation. Furthermore, flexibility, analysis, inference, explanation, and self-management were significant predictors of Mathematics performance using multiple regression. Finally, the model was evaluated using fit indices involving Chi-square over degree of freedom, Goodness of Fit Index, Tucker-Lewis Index, Comparative Fit Index, Normed Fit Index, and Root Mean Square Error of Approximation. A positive relationship between critical thinking and emotional intelligence was established. In conclusion, the study theorized that mathematics performance is significantly attributable to their skills in critical thinking and emotional intelligence. Pages 39 to 62 |

Legal Basis for Formation of Non-Ministerial Government Institutions in the Indonesian Government System Sodikin1, Tomi Subiakto2, 1,2Faculty of Law, Universitas Muhammadiyah Jakarta Email: 1sodikin@umj.ac.id, 2tomisubiakto@gmail.com Article 1 paragraph (3) of the 1945 Constitution stipulates that the Indonesian state is based on law. Consequences as a state based on law, the implementation of the duties and functions of the government must be based on law. In the 1945 Constitution, the President also has authority in administering government, so that in terms of forming non-ministerial government institutions, it is also the authority of the president. The problem is regarding the legal basis for the formation of Non-Ministerial Government Institutions which are regulated in various laws and regulations which lead to ambiguity in the regulations. The research method used is normative juridical (legal research) which is carried out by reviewing various laws and regulations and literature that are theoretical in nature and then connected to the subject matter. The results of the study explain that there is no law that specifically regulates Non-Ministerial Government Institutions, causing the subjectivity of the President in the formation of Non-Ministerial Government Institutions which are still very dominant as holders of government power. There is ambiguity in the law and institutional variations of Non-Ministerial Government Institutions in the Indonesian government system, especially at the leadership level of Non-Ministerial Government Institutions. There has been a transformation of several state institutions with the status of Non-Ministerial Government Institutions into Government Institutions, even though there is no legislation at the level of the law that provides attribution or delegation of authority to the President to establish state institutions with the status of Government Institutions.

This study focuses on COVID-19's effects on KSE-100 index (Karachi stock exchange), which is a part of a developing country. From 2 March 2020 to 9 November 2021, COVID-19 confirmed, recovered and deaths cases were taken as covariates for the COVID-19. To explore the conditional distributional impact of COVID-19 on KSE-100, we employ robust quantile regression analysis with detailed asymmetric evidence. The results show that the confirmed and recovered cases have a significant positive impact on KSE-100 whereas expired cases having a significant negative influence. These findings contradict previous studies in the world, which claimed that COVID-19 had a negative impact on developed stock markets while aligning with a vast literature of Pakistan stock exchange. It seems that as the result of timely policy implemented by the government of Pakistan. For investors, these findings are robust, which leads to providing practical policy to combat such circumstances in the future. Pages 137 to 149 |

Musical Alteration on Fazil Say’s Piano Work Summertime Variations Op.20 Siti Nur Hajarul Aswad Shakeeb Arsalaan Bajunid1, Rizal Ezuan Zulkifly Tony2, 1,2Conservatory of Music, College of Creative Arts, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia. Corresponding author: 1hajarulbajunid@uitm.edu.my This paper focuses on the embellishment approaches on Fazil Say’s Summertime Variations Op.20 piano solo work. The opportunity of embellishing musical material presented in a recital appears to suggest that alternative approaches are required. Performing music that incorporates "alteration" enhances the opportunity to rethink one's approach to learning and practice; a performer may need to find alternative strategies to perform and interpret Fazil Say's music effectively, particularly in the alteration of the notes and musical phrases. The creative process includes analysis of Fazil Say’s written score and recordings, and documentation of self-interpretation on musical alteration, performed during a recital, as a guideline for performers to integrate and arrange melodic, rhythmic, metric and structure. Epitomising within Fazil Say's selected piano work, this article also attempts to reproduce ideas of a performer's creative process that can contribute to a performance on works based on the philosophies of Julian Hellaby that provides conceptual recommendations that supports a performer to include alternative pianistic possibilities to the limit, if not beyond.

Research and Application of Virtual Digital Technology in Art Creation Yangxiaoxiao Zhou1, Jan Theo De Vleeschauwer2, 1Ph.D Graduate, Arts and Design, Faculty of Fine Arts, Chiang Mai University, 2Associate Professor, Faculty of Fine Arts, Chiang Mai University, Thailand This study describes virtual digital art, its origins, technological context, artistic context, ideological context, artists, and works and their meanings. The main aim of this study is to reflect and analyse the description of the interrelationship between virtual digital technology and art through the ontological, typological, aesthetic and cultural characteristics of virtual art. Technology and art are the future trends, and Chinese artists have created works related to virtual digital art, which is new experimentation and exploration by artists. From their artworks, we can see that virtual art focuses on the social winter scape of body and media, space and presence, gender and identity, technology and art, democracy and power, and ethics and religion, and reveals interrelationships and overall connections in people (artists and audiences), objects (artworks), and events (art acts and art events). With the advent of the digital age, virtual art as an essential type of contemporary art form has attracted public attention and is multiplying. This paper attempts to explain and explore the connotation and significance of virtual art by sorting out its production and characteristics and analysing individual cases. Pages 191 to 210 |

The International Organisation and Diplomatic Efforts of the Muslim Brotherhood Dr Wisam Fakhry Hazimeh, Faculty of Prince Hussein II bin Abdullah for International Relations, Jordan University, Amman, Jordan The Muslim Brotherhood’s history dates back to 1928, making it older than most nation states in the Middle East, and the oldest, most significant and influential movement of our time. The discussion of the political survival of the Muslim Brotherhood can be approached from many different angles including its structure, adaptability, and relationship with its respective regimes. However, it is the Brotherhood’s strategy in adapting to Western modernisation and its subsequent balance between modernity and Islam which makes it truly unique. This paper considers the Brotherhood’s maturity over time, its application of structural development to become an international movement, and the various diplomatic strategies it has practised in order to flourish. Using an historical methodology, this paper divides the development of the Brotherhood's structure into three stages in order to analyse how the Brotherhood adapted to current world politics, emerging from the shroud of victimhood within their own nation states as a legitimate tool of diplomacy and mediation. Through its international organisation and mediation efforts, the Brotherhood came to play a role in many political crises that occurred between 1980 and 2001 in the Arab world. This paper analyses the possibility of the Brotherhood’s relevance and need as a diplomatic force in future crises. Pages 211 to 235 |

Criminal Protection of Communications via Social Media Lec. Maitham Mohammad Abd AL Nomani, Al-Furat Al-Awsat Technical University, Babylon Technical Institute, Legal Management Technologies Dept., Iraq, Email: inb.mth@atu.edu.iq Nowadays, society lives in a machine controlled by advanced technology, which has occupied all aspects of the lives of its members through various social media. Many companies have started working on the design of many applications that allow the user to communicate with others via the Internet through computers or mobile phones to accomplish daily work quite easily. Millions of people use social media applications for chatting and sending pictures and videos, such as Facebook, Facebook messenger, Viber, WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram, and others. However, some may resort to violating these rights in various ways, such as hacking to see the personal conversations of others or to steal studio files such as photos, videos, audios, etc. without the consent of the owners for various purposes, such as defamation, revenge, or blackmailing girls to pay money in order to avoid the scandal. Therefore, the topic of user privacy in social media is one of the most important topics worth being studied. To protect personal communications, a law criminalizing serious violations should be enacted because of its close connection with the issue of confidentiality of human life and dignity.

The research was conducted by applying both qualitative and quantitative approaches using structural equation modeling (SEM) methodology and analysis with 328 samples from representatives in the organizations in private sector. From the study, it founds out that, in private sector, 1) SDL impacts on DT (Loading Factor (FL = 0.59), 2) DT impacts on SDE (FL = 0.70), 3) SDL has least impact on SDE (FL = 0.14), 4) Strategic leadership competency plays major roles in SDL (FL = 1.00) and 5) Ethics which is the newly proposed pillar in this research besides the current existing ones which are economy, society and environment also has impact to SDE (FL = 0.88) and 6) Operation process is the mostly important factor on DT (FL = 0.90). The innovative study of this research could be very useful to private sector management level and government policy makers on building up the right key competencies related to the needs of private organizations for strategic digital leaders to digitally transform the organizations which could successfully bring the organizations’ sustainable digital economy at the end. Most importantly, the leader could not alone and directly drive the organizations to achieve the sustainable digital economy, however, the systematic digital transformation implemented with the right strategic digital leadership competencies is certainly required.

Analysis of the 2022 Revised Second Foreign Language Curriculum of Korea Eun Young Jang, Division of Foreign Language Education, Hankuk University of Foreign Studies, Seoul, Republic of Korea, Email address: j9902768@hufs.ac.kr This study was conducted to examine the characteristics of the 2022 revised curriculum, with a particular focus on the second foreign language curriculum for middle and high schools. Unlike the 2015 revision, a variety of education stakeholders were involved in this revision process. While there were only minor changes to the human ideal and core competencies pursued, the content system underwent a significant restructuring. And the 2022 revised second foreign language curriculum was examined in five parts: characters and goals, content system, achievement standards, instruction and assessment guidelines, and basic vocabularies and communicative expressions, which were compared by language for detailed analysis. The 2022 revised curriculum differs from the existing curriculum revisions in multiple aspects, and it also has some limitations. In this study, two suggestions are made to address these limitations. First, it is important to develop courses that align with the characteristics and circumstances of each foreign language. Second, there is a need to create opportunities for students to access foreign languages from middle school to encourage them to take interest in various foreign languages, it is also important to provide an adequate number of teachers and class hours to promote interschool joint foreign language learning opportunities.

José Chávez Morado’s Plastic Monumentalism: Communitarian Integration in an Urban, Social, and Artistic Environment Jose Osvaldo Chavez Rodriguez, Professor, Architecture Department, University of Guanajuato This paper discusses the concept of Monumentalism, proposed by the Mexican artist José Chávez Morado, to expand the limits of Mexican Muralism, which is designated here as Plastic Monumentalism. This architectural-artistic movement involves an artistic dialogue on urban spatial reconfiguration, where all the parts are unified—in their respective social, aesthetic, and natural environments—to ensure the integral performance of the city, as well as creating an identity of its inhabitants. We explore the possibilities of the city's subjective existence as a collective construction made out like a work of art but, as Alfredo Siqueiros said, with a social intention in each of its expressive manifestations.

Dystopia Animation: Created Visualization of Chiang Mai in the Future Assistant Professor Dr. Korakot Jairak, Faculty of Fine Arts, Chiang Mai University, Thailand, Email: korakottwo@gmail.com This article concludes the main ideas from the research work entitled ‘The Creation of Animation Presents the Imagery of Chiang Mai in The Future World.’ The outcomes from this project included the discovery of the process of designing animation works to visualize the dystopian future of the city whereby photographs of important places of the current city can be used together with images from imaginations created by the computer with the ‘Collage’ technique that can show the separation, difference, and collapse or fall of a conventional urban. In addition, as for the projection of the animation, a new screen with curves and divided sub-screens was used to project motion pictures in two different styles simultaneously, which could be the creation of aestheticism from the viewing in unique styles. The creativity of the screens created in this project has been successful as a tool to promote the occurrence of an open-ended process for creating and viewing animation works designed with a computer.

Analysis and Study of the Expression of Loneliness in the Works of Modern and Contemporary Artists Wenfang Hou，Jan Theo De Vleeschauwer, Ph.D Graduate, Arts and Design, Faculty of Fine Arts, Chiang Mai University, Associate Professor, Faculty of Fine Arts, Chiang Mai University, Thailand. This thesis falls within the scope of fine art studies, a comprehensive cross-sectional study combining fine art with social psychology, aesthetics and art studies. Emotional expression is the most common way of interpreting emotions and the abstract medium of artistic language expression in artistic expression forms, especially after art history entered the period of Impressionism, Modernism to Contemporaryism, artists put more emphasis on self-expression, and solitude is an essential emotional embodiment in self-awareness, which is favoured by artists, who invariably inject solitude into their artworks, in order to face it directly and deal with it. This essay explores the emotion of loneliness in contemporary art based on the embodiment of the emotion of loneliness in modern and contemporary paintings as the main line of research, taking the source of the emotion of loneliness and the expression of the artist's emotion as the subject of research and discussion. By discussing different art genres such as easel painting, abstract painting and large-scale installation art, and by combining the author's dynamic analysis and interpretation of his works, the article further discusses the expression of loneliness in his works in an attempt to present a more comprehensive picture of the way loneliness is expressed in artistic creation.

Creation Process and Visual Aesthetics at Jesus and Mary Images in Balinese Wayang Characters Andreas James Darmawan1*, I Wayan Mudra2, I Ketut Suteja3, 1,2,3Institut Seni Indonesia Denpasar, 80235, Denpasar, *Corresponding author’s email: james.dar@gmail.com Visual aesthetics of Balinese wayang has artistic and cultural values that are thick with traditional values and the richness of Indonesian culture. On the other hand, Christian images of Jesus and Mary still use a lot of Western visual aesthetics, this circumstance distances Christians from recognizing the localized visual aesthetics of Balinese wayang. Research purpose is to explain creation process and visual aesthetics in Jesus and Mary images with Balinese wayang characters. Research method is descriptive qualitative, the theory for the process of creation uses semiotic theory from Umberto Eco, and the theory for visual aesthetics uses the theory of aesthetics from Bishop Robert Barron. Research results: (1) creation process produces: Recognition of visual styles, Ostensions of character, Stylization of attribute ornaments, and Invention of image correlations; (2) visual aesthetics produces: Bhawa namely facial expressions, Arsa namely proportions and gestures, and laksa namely ornaments and attributes. Research main findings: (1) image results of creation process journey; (2) description studies of visual aesthetics elaboration. Research implications: (1) images results of creation process are used as Bible teaching media; (2) description studies of visual aesthetics are used as localized Christian visual aesthetics at Jesus and Mary images in Balinese wayang characters.

Lived Experiences of Health Optimizing Physical Education (HOPE) Teachers Charis B. Limbo-Rivera, Institute of Human Kinetics, College of Education, Visayas State University, Visca, Baybay City, Leyte, Philippines Email: charis.limbo@vsu.edu.ph Physical Education teachers' experiences as change agents in every new curriculum model are a foremost concern. Thus, this research aimed to determine the lived experiences of teachers implementing the new HOPE curriculum model. This qualitative study used a phenomenological design that concentrated on the experiences of public, private, and state university senior high schools’ HOPE teachers. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions which were analyzed by coding, finding themes, producing textual and structural descriptions, and determining the essence of the experience for participants (Moustakas, 1994). The results revealed the following themes: teachers’ qualifications, challenges encountered, and learning experiences. Results further affirmed that HOPE teachers' academic and professional qualifications, training, and teaching experiences affect their implementation of the HOPE curriculum model. Despite the challenges that HOPE teachers encounter, they continually deepen their understanding of the HOPE curriculum model through a wide range of strategies in teaching and collaborative relationships. The results indicated that HOPE teachers' professional development, academic qualifications, training, and experiences are crucial to enhancing Education and meeting the challenges in a constantly evolving environment. Therefore, the Department of Education should consider developing more effective and efficient programs to assist these teachers with their implementation concerns. Pages 512 to 528 |
