FORMATION OF A FUTURE MUSIC TEACHER’S PROFESSIONAL COMPETENCIES IN PRIMARY MUSICAL INSTRUMENT CLASSES

The paper deals with providing the insight into formation specifics of a future music teacher’s professional competencies in primary musical instrument classes. Theoretical and empirical research methods (analysis of academic literature, synthesis, systematization, generalization) were applied in the research process. Reviewing academic sources, we have noted that, while the matter of professional competency formation has been considered in many papers, the matter of a future music teacher’s formation of professional competencies in primary musical instrument classes is not studied sufficiently.Having analyzed educational and professional programs, we have determined that professional competencies of a future music teacher include:– artistic and aesthetic competency (centres around the formation of artistic worldview of a student);– psychological and pedagogical competency (mastery of basic knowledge in pedagogics and psychology, ability to implement it in learning and professional activities);– musical and theoretical competency (application of knowledge acquired in other disciplines when interpreting and performing a piece of music);– instrument competency (ability to use a musical instrument fluently);– performance competency (ability to conduct cultural, educational, as well as concert activities in the setting of a public performance).We have concluded that competency-based approach to the training of future music teachers is built on interdisciplinary relations of professional disciplines, where the subject area comes into correlation with a variety of music activities and targets at developing focus on self-development artistic potential of future music teachers.

Generalizing and Executing Plans

In a dynamic environment, an intelligent agent must consider unexpected changes to the world and plan for them. We aim to address this key issue by building more robust artificial agents through the generalization of plan representations. Our research focuses on the process of generalizing various plan forms and the development of a compact representation which embodies a generalized plan as a policy. Our techniques allow an agent to execute efficiently in an online setting. We have, to date, demonstrated our approach for sequential and partial order plans and are pursuing similar techniques for representations such as Hierarchical Task Networks and GOLOG programs
Evaluation of automated hematology analyser: Mindray BC-6800 plus as a screening tool for diagnosing malaria

Background: Malaria is one of the major health problems of developing and tropical countries like India, causing huge financial burden also. Smear examination for diagnosis is a routine and cost-effective method for diagnosis. CBC is one the most commonly ordered test in clinical practice. The Mindray BC-6800 plus haematology analyser provide dedicated flag of “Infected RBC?” for suspected malaria while analysing CBC. Present study attempts to evaluate whether CBC done on BC-6800 plus can serve as an aid for malaria screening and diagnosis.Methods: Prospective study of 30077 cases was carried out where thick and thin smear examination done by experienced microscopists and CBC was analysed on BC- 6800 plus analyser.Results: Total 323 cases were found to be positive for malaria by smear examination, out of which 285 were of P. vivax and 38 were of P. falciparum malaria. Sensitivity of 88.24%, specificity of 99.21%, PPV of 54.70%, NPV of 99.87% for Infected RBC flag for all cases of malaria. For P. vivax malaria cases analyser provided highest sensitivity of 99.65% with NPV of nearly 100%, however P. Falciparum malaria cases analyser produced sensitivity of 2.63% only. In P. vivax cases present study found very good correlation between InR count and parasite load under microscope. Present study also evaluated interference of parasitized red cells in differential count causing falsely elevated neutrophils and/or eosinophils.Conclusions: By lowering threshold for “Infected RBC?” flag to 0, BC-6800 plus can serve as an excellent screening tool especially for P. vivax malaria.
