REFLECTION AND CRITICAL THINKING OF PERSONALITY IN THE INFORMATION SOCIETY

The article is devoted to the peculiarities of using the critical thinking and reflection in the conditions of blurring the boundaries between nano-, bio-, information technology and cognitive sciences. The regularities and interrelation of reflection and critical thinking of the individual in the information society are studied. The article attempts to reveal modern views on the nature of thinking, to analyze the concepts of "reflection" and "critical thinking", to explore the interdependent connections and relationships between them. It is noted that due using the latest technologies, it is necessary to re-evaluate the functions and role of reflection and critical thinking in the modern information environment of human development. The discovery of new properties of brain structures (introduction of the concept of "default network") requires understanding of the laws of its work and taking into account when determining the role, functions and capabilities of reflection and critical thinking. Given the results of recent research, it must be acknowledged thinking critically means understanding we have prejudices that unlike to get rid of. Only by realizing our own bias do we have the opportunity to abandon them and embark on the path of finding alternative solutions of our own.

The Rater Performance Categorization System (RPCS) for Intensive English Programs

There are several student performance are assessed in Intensive English Programs (IEP) worldwide in each academic year. These student performances are mostly graded by human raters with a certain degree of error. However, the accuracy of these performance assessment is of utmost importance because they feed data into some high stakes decisions about the students and such performance assessments constitute a large number of students’ scores. Therefore, the accuracy of these performance assessments should be given priority by the IEPs. However, when the current rater performance monitors systems which can help the administrators of IEPs to monitor rater performance in performance assessment are away from practicality because they require the use of complex mathematical models and specialized software. A practical and easy to maintain rater performance categorization system is proposed in this paper and it was accompanied by a sample study Its benefits to the administrators of IEPs and their raters are also discussed besides its practical considerations.
ACCEPTANCE OF ECONOMIC-GEOGRAPHICAL REGULATIONS AND CONCEPTS OF STUDENTS UNDER THE UPDATE OF THE SCHOOL EDUCATION PROGRAM

This article deals with the assimilation of students studying in the updated program of geography, economic and geographical patterns, concepts and ideas. The article also writes that since at the present stage the policy of our state is aimed at the further development of the economy, the closest attention will also be paid to the development of the educational sphere. In the field of science, the concept of “research competence” is one of the key categories, this emerging from the concepts of “science”, “research”, “competence” category is the main guideline of the modern education system. At present, only through the effective use of the results of a person’s creative activity is it possible to advance scientific and technological progress. The formation of scientific and research competence in any field of science can lead to success. Research competence can only be realized if students acquire and further develop research skills. This can be achieved by using the knowledge gained in the new school system in practice. Also, in this study, the views of foreign researchers on economic and geographical concepts and representations in the updated program of the content of geography are presented.
Finding and Defining Champions in a Rural Adult Education Intervention in Limpopo, South Africa

This paper presents the outcomes of a community-based information communications technology (ICT) and basic adult education (BAE) nutrition training intervention for out-of-school young mothers (YMs) in a resource-limited rural village in eastern Limpopo Province, South Africa. YMs have been identified as a vulnerable and priority group for human development. Out-of-school YMs are often trapped in a cycle of poverty because they lack the resources and qualifications to compete outside their village environment. Implementation of the project's objectives to improve the nutritional and vocational skills education of the YMs was tracked to observe its empowering effect and the effectiveness of the community-based participatory action research (CBPAR) methodology in the implementation of the BAE. Voluntary sampling was used to purposively focus on seven of the 20 selected unemployed YMs between the ages of 18-30 years from this community. The findings revealed that the collaborative CBPAR approach enabled YMs to be empowered in their local community through active participation in the planning, trialling implementation, reflection, observation, and evaluation of the ICT and BAE nutrition course as an out-of-school adult learning experience. During these stages, some YMs displayed what may be considered "champion" behaviours such as higher levels of motivation in class, inviting others to the class, helping peers, regular attendance, and willingness to volunteer locally to access and assist with the facilitation of future courses. This study points to champions acting as catalysts to enable YMs and their older women mentors to fill different roles in the development and delivery of community-based BAE.
Feature Selection Based on BP Neural Network and Adaptive Particle Swarm Algorithm

Feature selection can classify the data with irrelevant features and improve the accuracy of data classification in pattern classification. At present, back propagation (BP) neural network and particle swarm optimization algorithm can be well combined with feature selection. On this basis, this paper adds interference factors to BP neural network and particle swarm optimization algorithm to improve the accuracy and practicability of feature selection. This paper summarizes the basic methods and requirements for feature selection and combines the benefits of global optimization with the feedback mechanism of BP neural networks to feature based on backpropagation and particle swarm optimization (BP-PSO). Firstly, a chaotic model is introduced to increase the diversity of particles in the initial process of particle swarm optimization, and an adaptive factor is introduced to enhance the global search ability of the algorithm. Then, the number of features is optimized to reduce the number of features on the basis of ensuring the accuracy of feature selection. Finally, different data sets are introduced to test the accuracy of feature selection, and the evaluation mechanisms of encapsulation mode and filtering mode are used to verify the practicability of the model. The results show that the average accuracy of BP-PSO is 8.65% higher than the suboptimal NDFs model in different data sets, and the performance of BP-PSO is 2.31% to 18.62% higher than the benchmark method in all data sets. It shows that BP-PSO can select more distinguishing feature subsets, which verifies the accuracy and practicability of this model.

Starting from the principle of computer security that branched to many fields, whereas the encryption is one from, therefore this paper focused on a new idea of data encryption, it depends on modular and integer division operations, and then will produce two numbers, first one represents the result of (MOD operation), second one represents the result of (DIV operation), and then these two numbers and the secret key will be used within the two functions to produce an encrypted file. The proposed method will use one symmetric key to encrypt the plaintext, also there is another proposed elementary level of encryption depends on substitution technique, Finally this paper includes explanation of how the data will be encrypted and decrypted using the idea of (MODULAR and DIVISION), also include some results, computations, the proposed algorithm. This technique will be named as (MODIV) method
Use of Information Communication Technology for Teaching by N-Power Teach Beneficiaries of Public Primary and Secondary Schools in Nigeria

This study investigated the use of mobile devices for teaching by N-Power Teach beneficiaries in public primary and secondary schools in Nigeria. Descriptive survey design was adopted, and 50 beneficiaries were selected using multi-stage sampling. Data collection was through interview and data collected were transcribed and analysed using Nvivo 12 software. Findings revealed that the main ICT tool accessed by the beneficiaries was the N-Teach application (a pre-installed application) which contains textbooks, video, audio materials. The devices were reportedly used for preparing lesson notes and instructional materials. Beneficiaries reported being confident in the use of these devices for teaching, however, beneficiaries in secondary schools reported having primary school teaching application tools on their devices. School administrators reportedly had positive attitude to the use of the devices while few had initial rejection. Challenges reported in the use of the devices included poor power supply, insufficient data and network failures.
The English teacher's attitude towards internet personal access device (iPad) in teaching and learning process

Regardless of the integration of technology into English learning at school brings an abundance of advantages, there are still very few teachers who have been implementing technology. iPad as a learning medium in English language learning has been widely applied in many countries. However, the use of iPad for English language learning in Banda Aceh is still considered uncommon. Descriptive qualitative research with a case study approach was carried to find out an English teacher’s attitude towards the integration of iPad in English teaching-learning class in Al-Azhar Cairo Islamic Junior High School in Banda Aceh. An observation sheet and guided interview were used to gather the data. The data analysis was processed in the form of condensation data, display data, and conclusion data which are proposed by Miles, Huberman, and Saldana (2014). The findings show that the English teacher delivered 91 utterances consisted of 34 affective attitudes, 28 conative attitudes, 16 evaluative attitudes, and 13 cognitive attitudes. The highest frequency attitude showed by the teacher is the affective attitude meanwhile the lowest is the cognitive attitude.
Using Character Maps to Learn English Literature

Learning English literature has always been a challenge, as it demands advanced analytical skills, especially when learners are expected to critically analyse and discuss literary texts. Character mapping is proposed as a technique that develops analytical and critical thinking skills among learners. Drawing theoretical basis from cognitive science, constructivism, and cognitive stylistics, character mapping helps learners visualise connections between characters and events in a literary narrative, which then allows better comprehension of the literary text. 18 respondents from a Form 4 secondary school in Sabah, Malaysia, participated in a small-scale action research study. First, their previous experiences learning English literature was extrapolated via a need analysis, after which the respondents were then exposed to character mapping and its underlying principles. Then, they were asked to reflect and provide feedback on their experiences learning English literature using character maps. The feedback indicated positive support from the respondents, suggesting that character mapping can help learners learn English literature more effectively. Key observations include enhanced levels of comprehension, engagement, creativity, memory retention and organisation of thoughts. Two negative feedback were observed: (i) character mapping is time-consuming, and (ii) overusing character mapping might impede learning engagement. Future studies need to recruit larger sample population and potentially an experimental paradigm to investigate the impact of character mapping in greater detail.
Studying the role of progressive web application in modern web development

This article explores the Progressive Web Application web development technology. It also explains what this technology is and its purpose. The paper also compares progressive web applications with other closely related web technologies such as adaptive websites and native applications. This highlights the most important differences and similarities between them. In addition, the paper discusses the benefits as well as possible limitations of this technology. Progressive web applications, or PWAs, are applications built using web technologies such as HTML, CSS and JavaScript. But they have the feel and functionality of a true native application. A native app is a software application created in a specific programming language for a specific device platform - iOS or Android. Thanks to modern technology, almost any website can be turned into a PWA. This means that you can quickly create a PWA compared to a native app, which is quite difficult to develop. PWAs have been gaining popularity lately. Many websites of large companies are PWAs - for example Twitter, one of the most common social networking platforms.
SOCIOCULTURAL ASPECT AS A COMPONENT OF FOREIGN LANGUAGE COMMUNICATIVE COMPETENCE

The article considers the relevance and importance of the formation of sociocultural competence in modern educational practice. It is shown that in order to create a more tolerant and cultural oriented society, as well as successful socialization of young people, high-school’s foreign language teachers need to create a positive ethno-linguistic and ethno-psychological cultural atmosphere in the classroom, that leads young minds to tolerant and healthy behavior towards other cultures and nations, which is one of the most important aspects of education in the context of modern and comprehensive globalization. The formation of sociocultural competence as a component of the communicative competence of schoolchildren is considered and examples of its successful formation in high school with in-depth study of the English language are given.
УЛОГА АКЦИОНОГ ИСТРАЖИВАЊА У ПРЕВЕНЦИЈИ НАСИЉА У ШКОЛАМА – ПРИМЕР РЕФЛЕКСИВНЕ ПРАКСЕ

The aim of the action research conducted is focused on professional training and creating a favorable climate in the classroom for the development of each student. The paper emphasises how important and efficient action researches are in improving teachers’ reflective practice, as well as in providing support for its practical application. The research presented in this paper involved four stages of action research: teachers’ training, creation and realization of activities, evaluation of teachers and students and of the complete programme, as well. The formative evaluation was done by means of the questionnaire for the assessment of the accomplishments of workshop activities and interview conducted with the teachers after each of the activity was completed. The summation evaluation was done by means of the questionnaire for the assessment of the initial knowledge of the students and the ultimate knowledge they acquired regarding types and forms of violence, and reacting to and reporting peer violence. Finally, third questionnaire was used for the self-assessment of the teachers’ practice. The workshop activities included: active methods, the method of experiential learning, cooperative and problem method. The activities were realized through simultaneous individual activities, work in small groups, group discussions, talking circles and frontal forms of work. The results obtained showed positive changes among teachers regarding the acquisition of knowledge related to the preventive measures against peer violence. With regard to the students, the observed changes were related to their expansion of knowledge about violence, improvement of their mutual cooperation and higher level of tolerance in resolving conflicts.
THE READINESS OF TEACHERS FOR IMPLEMENTING INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY IN SERBIAN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS

Recent advancements of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and the increased use of ICT related services in the field of online learning offer a range of possibilities, but also pose a challenge for administration in the institutions of higher education. A plethora of official documents dealing with the analysis of how ICT is applied in teaching practice indicate the existing gap in teachers’ digital competencies for its implementation. The paper discusses teachers’ perceptions of various aspects related to the use ICT in teaching at higher education institutions, as well as their needs for professional development in this area. The study included 211 teachers employed in higher education institutions within the Universities of Belgrade, Novi Sad, Kragujevac, Novi Pazar, and Nis. Considering the purpose of this research, the authors designed a measuring instrument comprised of open and closed-ended questions. The study results indicate that teachers recognize the need for integrating ICT in instruction, while their perception of the level of access to ICT learning resources varies depending on the given technology or ICT related services. It is identified that the practical integration of ICT in the classroom still remains at an intermediate or relatively low level. With regard to teacher perception of the intensity of utilizing different software applications in direct instruction, the overall results demonstrate that basic business/productivity application packages such as MS Office are the predominant form of software used in the classroom, followed by Learning Management Systems (LMS). Finally, it is worth noting that teachers’ perception of available professional development opportunities is considerably low, but coupled with a relatively high personal interest in participating in professional development activities.
