It is more rich in scenes, more interactive graphics, and other visualizations, which enables viewers to enjoy the reconstructed Notre Dame online with the best audio-visual effects. We used the Likert scale research method for a survey. The questionnaire was administered to 15 students and 15 experts for basic information collection and experience feedback. Using data statistics and qualitative analysis, the effectiveness of the guided tours was validated. The result showed that VR museum tours were supported with great potential. Its more interactive guided tour experience enhanced the audience's experience and improved their understanding and interest in history and culture. Virtual reality technology was successfully applied to guide NDDP by providing a richer and more interactive guided experience and promote the cultural heritage and development of the cathedral. The research result provides a reference and inspiration for the future development of guided tours of museums.","PeriodicalId":377167,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Social Sciences and Artistic Innovations","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141660858","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Criminal and community justice and higher education are discussed to highlight how technological developments can challenge our values and progress on parallel tracks. In community justice, technology has been most prominent in the utilization of electronic monitoring and tracking. EM was initially promoted as an alternative to custody but is increasingly utilized as an adjunct to custody, an extra element of punishment, or as an extra level of surveillance. It is important to interrogate the values of the use of this technology and the impact of monitoring on individuals and diverse and possibly disadvantaged groups. It is also important to study if the use of technology support inhibits rehabilitation. Higher Education has a long history of being challenged and disrupted by technology. Most recently, it is the use of Artificial Intelligence that has raised anxiety. If the skills and abilities that universities teach become redundant and how educators tell whether students are submitting assignments written by themselves are also important to research. The results of such discussions provide educational values in the purpose and nature of education.","PeriodicalId":377167,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Social Sciences and Artistic Innovations","volume":"39 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141338589","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this study was a meticulous analysis of course effectiveness, focusing on student satisfaction and feedback. In the “Application of the Multiple Intelligences Theory in Designing Teaching Aids” course, 42% of the 50 students rated satisfaction at 5, 44% at 4, and 14% at 3. In the “Children’s Poetry and Song Creation” course, 53% of the 48 students rated satisfaction at 5, 33% at 4, and 14% at 3. Feedback from the students who attended “Application of the Multiple Intelligences Theory in Designing Teaching Aids” highlighted satisfaction with the course content and the instructor’s conscientiousness. However, several students suggested reducing the volume of teaching aids. For “Children’s Poetry and Song Creation”, students acknowledged the instructor’s diligence but recommended more emphasis on “teaching aid creation. Challenges included a disparity between student preferences and departmental focus, non-cross-disciplinary course restrictions, limited promotion leading to a narrow student pool, budget constraints affecting instructional materials, and short, sporadic course durations hindering effective assessment.","PeriodicalId":377167,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Social Sciences and Artistic Innovations","volume":"5 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140668772","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Those who do not have a safe and healthy relationship with their caregivers to receive protection may suffer from attachment trauma in childhood, which may lead to negative effects on their personalities and interpersonal relationships. Moreover, while growing up in the context of social disorganization, with no peer or community support, children may lose their attachment to the community and hence display some deviant behaviors. To understand how the interconnections among attachment, trauma, and social disorganization may bring some negative impacts on children’s development and devastate their interpersonal relationship with the outside world, this study aims to use Süskind’s novel Perfume: The Story of a Murderer as a case study and examine how the protagonist Grenouille, an unwanted and unloved orphan, gets involved in the murder of twenty-six young girls with an unsurpassed wondrous scent. The study uses Satir’s iceberg theory as the overarching framework, underpinning the theories of attachment, social disorganization, and childhood trauma, to guide the analysis of both the observable behaviors and concealed emotions, desires, and inner selves of Grenouille. This involves examining multiple layers of the model, such as coping mechanisms, feelings, feelings about feelings, perception, expectations, yearnings, and self-understanding.","PeriodicalId":377167,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Social Sciences and Artistic Innovations","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140362643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
