Formation of the world-view competence of personality as the problem of integration of natural disciplines in profile secondary education

On the basis of the principle of additionality of educational paradigms an analysis of theoretical and practical aspects of the formation of the world-view personality competence in the profile secondary education by means of integration of natural sciences disciplines has been carried out. The urgency of the chosen problem is caused by the lack of readiness of the teachers of natural sciences to implement the methodological component of the integrated course “Natural Sciences” for the grades 10-11, as evidenced by the results of the survey. The components of the world-view competence, which are formed and developed by means of integration of natural sciences in general secondary education, were determined by the authors to include the natural-scientific picture of the world, the scientific world-view, value attitude to the environment. The mechanisms of integration (structuring of information, awareness of regularities, general principles), thinking operations (analysis, synthesis, comparison, generalization, establishment of causal links), which promote to the formation of the world-view competence of the individual, have been selected. The analysis of four curriculum projects, educational and methodological support of the integrated course “Natural sciences” for the grades 10-11 concerning the degree of orientation to the formation of the world-view competence has been analyzed. The possibilities of educational projects as a complex type of activity, which combines knowledge in different branches of science, develops research skills, forms the autonomy in problem solving, communicative skills, are therefore an effective technology for the formation of the world-view personality competence. marking the insufficient level of teachers’ readiness to form the world-view personality competence in the course “Natural Sciences” for the geades 10-11, the authors emphasize the necessity of the using of the potential of postgraduate pedagogical education.
Cosmografie fantastiche. Antonio Conti tra scienza, poesia e 'impossibilia'

This essay deals with the theme of the impossible in two Antonio Conti’s cosmological works (the Globo di Venere and the Dialoghi filosofici) and reflects on their complex interaction with Newton’s and Leibniz’s theories. The article will start exploring Conti’s idea of poetry as a synthesis of literature and science, mythos and logos; then, it will analyse the very different use of adynata, mirabilia and impossibilia in the two works, discussing them in connection with Conti’s drafting of his uncompleted Encyclopedia.
RGB-D tracker under Hierarchical structure

How to track the target robustly is a challenging task in the field of computer vision. Occlusion as one of the most difficult problems, occurs due to the information lost when three-dimensional subjects are projected in two-dimensional interface, therefore, the 2D or 3D tracking algorithms which adopted depth information that expects to rely on three-dimensional special structure to resolve these problems and made somewhat progress. The 2D tracking algorithm is not efficient in fully using depth information, and the 3D tracking method is not robust because of the lack of mature 3D feature extraction method, which fairly restricts the actual tracking effect. Responding to above questions, we propose an adoption of adaptive quantified depth information, establish an adaptive hierarchical structure according to various scenarios. Hierarchical structure can filter the foreground and background information to reduce the interference in tracking, at the same time simplify the use of the depth information. Combined with kernel correlation filter tracking method, we design the algorithm using 2D apparent model under the spatial structures, which is efficient to deal with the problems of occlusion and the change of target scale, and prove its effectiveness on Princeton Tracking Dataset.
IMPLEMENTASI REDUNDANT LINK UNTUK MENGATASI DOWNTIME DENGAN METODE FAILOVER

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Network failure not only affects performance, but also affects individuals or industries. Network Downtime can occur for many reasons, the most common is cable damage and network configuration. This condition requires a more reliable network that is not susceptible to network interference. One of the most important aspects of ensuring that network is redundancy. The method to get high is to build a backup system that will still work if it happens on the main system. Redundancy with failover can be a solution when downtime occurs on nodes in the network. Failover is a process of transferring connections to an alternative path caused by a system or hardware or network interruption or abnormality. The implementation method used is the PPDIOO method which has the stages Prepare, Plan, Design, Implement, Operate and Optimize. System implementation simulations are made using GNS3 software. This design will result in the merging of two networks from different ISP, using MikroTik routers and The Dude monitoring applications that are very useful for troubleshooting network problems in CV.

Design of cooperative update mechanism of national geographic conditions monitoring and basic surveying and mapping

Abstract. National geographic conditions monitoring and basic surveying and mapping are two important tasks of the surveying and mapping department, and they are similar in production organization and technology realization. In the process of operation, both of them need to carry out internal collection, base map production, field verification and so on. It is operationally feasible to carry out cooperative production of national geographic conditions monitoring and basic surveying and mapping. From the perspective of technical process and method, both of them are carried out by combination internal and field work. Firstly, based on remote sensing images and thematic geographic data, the internal work will perform image interpretation and obtain staged results data. Then, the field verification will be carried out to make judgments and adjustments. Finally, the results of the field verification will be transferred back to the internal work, and the data will be further edited and organized in the internal work to obtain the final data.Basic surveying and mapping focuses on abstract representation of the real world, but lacks comprehensive integration of information and in-depth knowledge mining. National geographic condition monitoring focuses on the spatial distribution, characteristics and interrelations of natural and human geographical elements on the surface. There are many differences between basic surveying and mapping and national geographic conditions monitoring in the content and index of data collection, data stratification and element attribute. But basic surveying and mapping results are the basic data for national geographic conditions monitoring and national geographic conditions monitoring data is an important update data source for basic surveying and mapping.On the one hand, part of the geographic information can be updated on the basis of extracting relevant basic geographic information element data and attribute information, On the other hand, timely basic geographic information data can be used as the direct basis for the collection of geographic information.This paper designs the technical methods and workflow of the cooperative update mechanism based on the relevant technical documents of national geographic conditions monitoring and basic surveying and mapping. It will enable one-time acquisition of data needed for the national geographic conditions monitoring and basic surveying and mapping, "one-time collection, classification and utilization". It will save a lot of time and effort, reduce workload and improve productivity.
BOXTARIK (BOX PINTAR LISTRIK) INOVASI MEDIA PEMBELAJARAN DENGAN MEMANFAATKAN LIMBAH BOTOL OLI

One of the most important components in the learning process is learning media. Hamlik (1986) suggests that the use of instructional media in the teaching and learning process can increase new desires and interests, increase motivation and stimulation of learning activities, and even bring psychological effects to students. Utilization of used goods and simple equipment as a medium of learning is not something new in the world of education. As is known, waste is a major problem in Indonesia. Based on data from the Central Bureau of Statistics in 2014 shows that Indonesia produces around 187.2 million tons / year of waste and ranks second as the largest waste producer in the world. Waste does not only come from households but also from the automotive environment, for example used oil bottles. Making learning media from used oil bottles aims to arouse creativity and also instill environmental care, so that they will strive to maintain life for the next, besides that it can also grow the entrepreneurial spirit if it can develop its creativity in making learning media. This study uses an experimental method to obtain appropriate learning media and literature studies from several books, journal articles, and other relevant sources.

Generation of Robust Hyperbolic Chaos in CNN

It is shown that on the basis of a cellular neural network (CNN) composed, e.g., of six cells, it is possible to design a chaos generator with an attractor being a kind of Smale -Williams solenoid, which provides chaotic dynamics that is rough (structurally stable), as follows from respective fundamental mathematical theory.In the context of the technical device, it implies insensitivity to small variations of parameters, manufacturing imperfections, interferences, etc. Results of numerical simulations and circuit simulation in the Multisim environment are presented.The proposed circuit is the first example of an electronic system where the role of the angular coordinate for the Smale -Williams attractor is played by the spatial phase of the sequence of patterns.It contributes to the collection of feasible systems with hyperbolic attractors and thus promotes filling with real content and promises practical application for the hyperbolic theory, which is an important and deep sector of the modern mathematical theory of dynamical systems.
Creativity in cultural-historical psychology: Implications for the development of creativity in school environment

The basic objective of this paper is the articulation of possible implications for the development of creativity in school environment which rely on the existing achievements in cultural-historical psychology. After a brief historical reconstruction of the current ?crisis? in psychology of creativity and the review of alternative cultural- historical research model, some of the basic ideas by Vygotsky and contemporary Tetradic model for the development of creativity have been presented as the most relevant achievements. In this paper five fundamental presumptions concerning the development of creativity have been articulated and the same are used to analyse the possible implications for educational practice. These implications refer to dynamic relations between individual and social, creative and developmental, semiotic, affective and behavioural aspects of creativity, as well as the development of imagination during the ?critical? period of adolescence. Some of the proposed educational practices include dialogical modes for constructing knowledge, fostering of open attitude towards the sudden appearance of unexpected solutions, creation of various forms of collaboration and mutual vision, as well as the usage of metaphors and humour. Finally, what is highlighted is the practical value of cultural-historical theory of creativity, and further theoretical improvement of implications and examination of their efficiency in empirical studies in school environment have been proposed.
DOES INSTITUTIONAL QUALITY EXPLAIN THE LUCAS PARADOX? EVIDENCE FROM AFRICA

The Lucas Paradox occurs when capital does not flow from the rich to poor countries contrary to the prediction of the neoclassical model. We examine whether institutional quality explains the Lucas paradox in Africa. Our evidence suggests that, the paradox by far is unexplained by institutional quality. This evidence is robust to the presence of outliers and endogeneity.
DALTON PLAN AS A SYSTEM OF TEACHING PROCESS ORGANIZATION IN THE CONTEXT OF THE EDUCATIVE PEDAGOGICAL DISCOURSE AT THE BEGINNING OF THE 20th CENTURY

In the article the peculiarities of the American educational system of the Dalton Plan are investigated and analyzed, based on the individualized education and its implementation into the teaching and educational process of the Soviet school at the beginning of the 20th century. The adopted Dalton Plan model had the form of the «brigade laboratory method». This paper highlights the Dalton Plan as the system of teaching and educational work organization based on the principal of individual training.The published works of the Soviet educators in the specialized and periodical publications are analyzed.They were focused on the Dalton Plan description, its main components and sharing their experience of using and implementing the Dalton Plan while teaching in the Soviet school in 1921–1925. It was implemented in a wide range of schools such as secondary schools, party schools, high party schools, military schools, evening schools for workers, political courses, «work faculties» («RabFaks») and faculties of the pedagogical educational establishments.The problem of the Dalton Plan adjustment into the Soviet educational system in the form of «brigade-laboratory method» is studied. The changed Dalton Plan mainstray was an individual work according to the plan received from the teacher, which included assigned tasks and references on the sources to fulfill them both in the laboratory and at home. It had been changed into the group work in the brigades.The reasons of the negative and critical estimation of the «brigade-laboratory method» are stated. The latter is based on the non-correspondence of individualism as a basic Dalton Plan’s principle with the collectivism, as one of the main concepts in the Soviet education.
A Novel Approach to Improve the Collaborative Representation for Face Recognition

Abstract Collaborative representation based classification (CRC) codes a test sample as a linear combination of all the training samples. However, the recognition rate of CRC is not ideal when available training samples are insufficient, as the test sample cannot be accurately represented by limited training samples. In order to address this issue, we propose a novel idea of training samples fragmentation. First, all training samples are divided into two new training sample sets according to the similarity among them. Next, the test sample simultaneously uses the two new training sample sets to perform CRC, which ultimately uses 2 M “nearest neighbors” from the two training sample sets to represent and classify the test sample. In addition, this method also takes advantages of a new fusion classification mechanism based on histogram similarity and Euclidean distance, which has been proven to perform better than Euclidean distance classification. The experimental results reveal that the proposed method performs better in face recognition compared with the most representation based classification methods.
Complex Network Reliability Analysis based on Entropy Theory

Network reliability is an essential issue of complex networks; the reliability of complex networks plays an important role in the performance in the research process.At the same time, the number of connected nodes in a complex network is a main measure of the complex network.Due to the randomness of complex networks, we define one new degree sequence and the entropy of the complex network, and we then study the entropy of the network as a new measure for the network reliability.The features of entropy are studied in complex networks, and entropy is analyzed in two representative complex network models, the random network model and scale-free network model.The degree distributions functions in the random network model and scale-free network model have significantly different characteristics, the Poisson distribution and Power-law distribution.Furthermore, we study the entropy features under two nodes fault models, random failures and deliberate attacks.We discuss the entropy of the random network model and scale-free network model in two fault modes with the fault intensity gradually increasing from 0 to 1.0.Then, we study the relation between the average degree distribution and the entropy of the network when the fault intensity is 0.3.The results show that the entropy of the network is reasonable to measure the network reliability similar to the number of connected nodes in the network.The purpose of the research is to provide a new way to study network reliability.

TiO2/SGNs as photocatalyst for degradation of water pollutants

A novel photocatalyst, titanium dioxide/spherical graphene nodules (TiO 2 /SGNs) composites were prepared successfully by hydrothermal synthesis.SGNs were synthetized by simple thermal pyrolysis of methane in a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) reactor over home-made MgO from dolomite.The structure of TiO 2 /SGNs composites was investigated by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman spectroscopy and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy.The results showed that an anatase type TiO 2 was obtained, and TiO 2 and SGNs were successfully combined.FT-IR and XPS results lend support to the proposed mechanism of formation of TiO 2 /SGNs composites through the bonding between oxygen vacancy sites in TiO 2 (Ti-O-Ti bonds) and in-plane oxygen functional (epoxy) groups in SGNs possibly via Ti-O-C bonds.The photocatalytic activity on methylene blue (MB) degradation proved that TiO 2 /SGNs composites were more effective under UV light than pure TiO 2 , SGNs and dark reaction.Kinetic studies indicated that MB degradation followed Langmuir-Hinshelwood model better, the increase of the initial concentration of MB, the apparent reaction rate constant decreased.The results indicated that the TiO 2 /SGNs composites could be employed as an efficient photocatalyst for the removal of textile dyes from effluents.
