Guerre, folie et écriture : la métaphorisation du trauma colonial dans Les jardins de cristal de Nadia Ghalem
Authors: Talahite-Moodley Anissa
Published: November 2024

Les jardins de cristal (1981) de Nadia Ghalem nous donne l’occasion de comprendre et d’apprécier les modalités d’écriture du trauma colonial dans une mise en texte de la guerre qui l’évoque sans la représenter directement. En effet, ce roman fait remonter à la surface le trauma enfoui dans la mémoire collective de la guerre d’indépendance algérienne au moyen d’une structure narrative et de procédés textuels privilégiant la polyphonie. La dimension intertextuelle de ce roman souligne également la remontée vers la conscience de ce qui a été réprimé ou refoulé. C’est au moyen de cette approche dialogique que Ghalem dans Les jardins de cristal nous propose une réflexion sur les relations complexes entre la guerre, la folie et l’écriture.

“Güçlendirilmiş Parlamenter Sistem” Önerisinin Ulusal Gazetelere Yansıması
Authors: Dursunoğlu İsmail
Published: November 2024

Türkiye 2016 referandumunda kabul edilen ve bir yıl sonra fiili olarak hayata geçirilen Cumhurbaşkanlığı Hükümet Sistemi (CHS) ile yeni bir siyasal zemine kavuşmuştur. Sadece basit bir hükümet sistemi değişikliği olarak görülmemesi gereken bu yenilik, aynı zamanda siyasal alanı da sistem tartışmaları çizgisine indirgemiştir. Bu tartışmalar; dem-okrasi, kuvvetler ayrılığı, meclisin etkinliği, iktidarın kişiselleşmesi gibi argümanlar ışığında yapılmıştır. Ana muhalefet partisi Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi’nin (CHP) öncülüğünde, İYİ Parti, Saadet Partisi (SP), Demokrat Parti (DP), Gelecek Partisi(GP) ve DEVA Partisi’nden müteşekkil “Altılı Masa”nın birincil motivasyonu anti-demokratik olarak niteledikleri CHS’den yeniden parlamenter sisteme dönüştür. Bu kapsamda 28 Şubat 2022 tarihinde Güçlendirilmiş Parlamenter Sistem (GPS) önerisini kamuoyu ile paylaşmışlardır.
Medya; yerel, ulusal ve uluslararası düzeyde, siyasal, toplumsal, ekonomik vb. birçok gelişmenin kamuoyuna aktarılmasında aracılık eden bir platformdur. Medya ku-ruluşlarının kamuoyunu yansıtmak dışında, kamuoyu oluşturmak ve kamuoyunu yönlendirmek gibi işlevleri de bulunmaktadır. Medya, sahip olduğu bu güç nedeniyle siyasetle yakın ilişki içindedir. Medya, bütün bunlarla beraber siyasal alandan vatandaşa yönelik ileti sağlamaktadır. Bu çalışma, Altılı Masa tarafından açıklanan GPS önerisinin ulusal gazetelerde nasıl yer bulduğunu konu edinmektedir. Çalışmada Hürriyet, Milliyet, Sabah, Akşam, Sözcü, Cumhuriyet, Milli Gazete, Yeniçağ, Karar ve Yeni Şafak gazetel-erinden oluşan toplam on gazete incelenmiştir. Çalışmanın amacı, incelenen gazeteler ışığında medyanın GPS önerisini kamuoyuna nasıl yansıttığını belirlemektir. Çalışmada nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden döküman incelemesi yapılmıştır. Çalışma, ilgili konu üzerinden siyaset ve medya ilişkisine yönelik bir değerlendirme yapmayı hedeflemekte-dir.
Uşak-Ulubey Kanyonu'nun İskân Tarihi ve Turizm Açısından Değerlendirilmesi
Authors: Oy Harun
Published: November 2024

Ulubey Kanyonu Uşak’ın 35 km güneyinde bulunmaktadır. Kanyon Ulubey ilçesinin do-ğusundaki Yavu Çayı (Kazancı Deresi) ve Banaz Çayının geçtiği alanda oluşmuştur. Ulu-bey Kanyonu ülkemizin önemli kanyonlarından birisidir. Doğa turizmi açısından değerlen-dirilmesine rağmen kanyonun arkeolojik zenginliği ve iskân tarihi yeterince bilinmemekte-dir. Bu makalede kanyonun tarih, arkeoloji ve kültür turizmi açısından var olan zenginliği ortaya koyulmaktadır. Ulubey Kanyonu içerisinde Adatepe, Köseler Höyüğü, Yeni Asar ve Eski Asar, Kocatarla Höyüğü, Salma-Mera Tepe, Hasköy Asarı, Öbek Adası (Gücü Gö-bek), Pepouza, Clandras köprüsü ve antik su kanalları gibi çok sayıda tarihi ve arkeolojik kalıntı bulunmaktadır. Ulubey Kanyonunda yerleşim Neolitik Çağda başlamıştır (MÖ 7000) ve günümüze kadar kesintisiz bir şekilde devam etmiştir. İnsanlar en az 9000 yıldır buradaki kanyon içerisinde yerleşim kurarak barınmış ve kanyonun imkânlarından yarar-lanmıştır. Kanyon içindeki bu tarihi alanların ve arkeolojik kalıntıların bir rota oluşturarak kültür turizmi kapsamında değerlendirilmesi gerekmektedir. Nitekim kanyon içerisinde yer alan Banaz Çayı üzerindeki Clandras köprüsü ve Pepouza antik kenti ile Salma-Mera Tepe’de oluşturulacak yürüyüş rotası kanyon içinde önemli bir güzergahı oluşturabilir. Salma-Mera Tepe’de bulunan kaya altı sığınakları hem görsellik açısından hem de kültür turizmi açısından değerlendirilmesi önem arz etmektedir. Yavu Çayı üzerinde ise Adatepe ve Yeni Asar üzerinden güneye doğru olan güzergah takip edilebilir. Kanyon için en büyük dezavantaj ise Dokuzsele ve Yavu Çayı üzerinden gelen kirli suların oluşturduğu kötü koku ve çeşitli atıkların vermiş olduğu zararlardır. Bu nedenle buradaki evsel ve kimyasal atıkların engellenmesi ve temizlenmesi gerekmektedir.

Privacy-preserving based encryption techniques for securing data in cloud computing environments
Authors: Ramesh Bishukarma
Published: November 2024

A successful strategy for comprehensive data processing and storage is cloud computing. Nevertheless, in cloud environments maintaining confidentiality for critical data remains one of the biggest concerns for end-users as well as service providers. Homomorphic encryption has been proved to be one of the efficient techniques to handle the data securely in cloud while keeping the data secret. The importance of privacy preserving encryption in cloud computing environments is discussed in this paper to justify the significance of these protocols within the IT Industry that has evolved through the availability of elastic, on-demand resources. This paper presents an overview of privacy-preserving encryption techniques that enhance data security in cloud computing. We explore various encryption methodologies, including Symmetric, Asymmetric, and homomorphic encryption, as well as Encryption Protocols like SMPC, ZKPs, PRE and Functional Encryption. These protocols ensure data confidentiality and regulatory compliance while addressing the challenges of maintaining data utility and minimising exposure risks. By proposing a comprehensive framework that integrates these techniques, we aim to provide a robust solution for safeguarding data privacy in cloud environments, ultimately fostering trust and confidence in cloud services. However, as cloud adoption continues to grow, optimising these encryption protocols for computational efficiency and adaptability remains essential to achieving seamless, secure cloud operations across industries.

Evidence of Vedic Sanātana Hinduism as a Global Dharma
Authors: Srivas Krishna Das Brahmacari
Published: November 2024

This research explores the spread-out influence of Vedic Sanātana Hinduism, postulating that it once served as a foundational spiritual and cultural tradition with a reach that extended well beyond the Indian subcontinent. By looking into key aspects of Vedic culture, such as meditation, ritual practices, and Ārcavigraha (deity worship) as expressions of the divine, this study presents a multifaceted view of Hinduism’s spread and adaptation across diverse ancient civilizations. Evidence of Hindu deities and symbols found globally in archaeological excavations—ranging from Southeast Asia, Europe to the Americas and Canada, —demonstrates that elements of Hindu spirituality were not confined to any one region. Rather, they appear to have permeated a variety of cultures and belief systems over time, often integrating with local customs and symbols. Moreover, this research examines Vedic Hinduism’s contributions to scientific knowledge, literature, governance, and technology, highlighting the sophistication and cultural advancement of early Hindu society. Ancient Hindu texts like the Mahabharata and the Vedas depict Bhāratavarṣa, a concept of a unified Earth or global empire under Vedic values, which is reflected in historical records describing interactions with regions beyond South Asia, including the Mleccha, Yavanas, and other international groups. Stories and references from these texts suggest a thriving network of trade, communication, and diplomacy between India and other parts of the ancient world, where Vedic influences may have taken root. Furthermore, the principles of Vedic literature continue to shape modern philosophy, science, ethics, and governance, underscoring the enduring relevance of Hindu thought across multiple fields. Further, Vedic texts trace humanity's origins to Rishi Kashyapa and his descendants, with references to various tribes and races like the Yavanas and Mleccha crossing oceans to establish their own cultures. The enduring legacy of Vedic philosophy in science, literature, ethics, and governance underscores its universal appeal and lasting impact on modern disciplines. This study demonstrates that Vedic Sanātana Hinduism, in its scope and influence, was more than a regional faith; it served as a global dharma, profoundly shaping the course of world history and spirituality. Through a combination of historical documentation, scriptural analysis, and contemporary scholarship, this research contends that Vedic Sanātana Hinduism not only shaped Indian civilization but also left an indelible mark on the religious, intellectual, and cultural landscapes of many regions across the globe. This convergence of ancient evidence and modern insight reinforces the idea that Vedic Sanātana Hinduism once operated as a truly global dharma, offering a comprehensive and profound framework for understanding the interconnectedness of human society.

Aerogarden: An aeroponics innovation project linking artificial intelligence and sustainability
Authors: Nikhil Nandi
Published: November 2024

Every year, 10.8 to 19.1 billion tonnes of CO2 are emitted through food exports, which accounts for roughly 21% - 37% of the world’s global total emissions. In the urge to expand businesses and ensure availability of all crops throughout the year, the quality of air is being compromised. The demand for crops rises in tandem with population growth and improvements in human well-being. In addition, most of these exported crops lose their nutritional value due to the unhealthy exposure of preservatives and other farming chemicals. There are multiple factors involved in crop production: land, labour, transportation, storage etc. Aeroponics is a relatively new farming system that eradicates numerous problems by using less land and water and requiring minimal labour and nutrients. The aim of this project is to convert the aeroponic farming unit into a 100% carbon-neutral, self-reliant unit called Aerogarden by integrating modern technology like Artificial Intelligence (AI). Every household having an Aerogarden unit can access fresh organic vegetables and microgreens that actually retain their nutritional value. By achieving this goal, non-agricultural nations' dependence on food imports will lessen, which will ultimately result in a reduction in the sector's carbon footprint. By giving people a way to directly support the international movement, the project also aims to support the UN's initiative to achieve the 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
Genetic mutations in mouse models for the comorbidity of autism spectrum disorders and epilepsy: A systematic review

Published: November 2024

The complex relationship between autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and epilepsy is yet to be well established. The increased prevalence of epilepsy in ASD and vice versa has resulted in each disorder being considered a “comorbidity” of the other. Their common co-occurrence has been suggestive of certain shared neurobiological mechanisms or pathways. Specifically, the discovery of novel genetic mutations in the comorbidity has pointed to abnormalities in synaptic formation and function, which alter the balance between normal neuronal excitation and inhibition. Animal models in general, and mouse models using knockout, knock-in, or CRISPR-Cas9 technology, can be informative in sorting out the relationship in the comorbidity and gaining insights into its medical and behavioral complexities. As a result of the growing mechanistic information on the comorbidity, we can expect the development of genetic mutation and pathway-specific targeted treatments. A coordinated global effort between researchers on epilepsy and ASD is crucial, including conducting timely systematic reviews and meta-analyses on animal models. This study aimed to review the genetic mutations commonly used to develop mouse models for the comorbidity of ASD and epilepsy.
Trauma from cyberbullying: How it affects learning impairments
Authors: Agathi Stathopoulou
Published: November 2024

Investigating the effects of the traumatic experiences that adolescents with learning problems go through is the goal of our study. 160 high school students who were referred via a web-based evaluation form because of poor academic performance made up the sample for our study. In particular, the subscales for anxiety-depression and depression-withdrawal were employed in the ACHENBACH self-report questionnaire for children and teenagers. Calculations have been made for frequencies, response percentages, and means. Additionally, a one-way anova was used to conduct an analysis of variance to compare the average student responses to the variable "experiencing a traumatic event" between groups of students. The findings demonstrated that there are substantial variations in the means of students who claim having experienced a traumatic event and those who report not having, with a statistical significance threshold of p 0,01 between the two groups. Students' exposure to violence in schools and the loss of a loved one appear to be particularly significant traumatic experiences for their psyche. Additionally, a quick presentation of the application's cyberbullying-related capabilities is made.
Wittgenstein on Use, Meaning and the Experience of Meaning
Authors: Valeri Elena
Published: November 2024

In this paper I discuss the relationship between the notion of experience of meaning, introduced by Wittgenstein in the Philosophical Investigations, and the idea of meaning as use, central to much of his thought. In particular, I ask whether the former is to be seen as a development, an integration and a specification of the latter, or whether its emergence in Wittgenstein’s work indicates a change in his attitude to meaning. My answer is that the notion of experience of meaning does not bring back some form of psychologism, but rather it develops, integrates and specifies that of use.
Scrutinising the Scrutiny Process in the Courts
Authors: Grenfell Laura , Carter Anne , Olijnyk Anna
Published: November 2024

In every Australian jurisdiction, a dedicated parliamentary committee scrutinises delegated legislation. When interpreting delegated legislation, courts may make assumptions about the nature and quality of the scrutiny performed by these committees. We argue courts should be cautious about reaching these conclusions. The article uses the High Court of Australia’s decision in Disorganized Developments Pty Ltd v South Australia as a case study. We show that, while a scrutiny committee might hold the promise of providing effective parliamentary oversight of delegated lawmaking, the reality may fall short of the ideal. With limited time and resources to scrutinise a large volume of instruments as well as to perform other functions, and with no guarantee of engagement from the Parliament or executive, scrutiny committees may not be able to scrutinise delegated legislation in a thorough or timely manner. Building on these insights, we consider the circumstances, and manner, in which a court might be justified in making findings about the process of scrutiny of delegated legislation.

Consideraciones sobre los derechos audiovisuales asociados a las competiciones deportivas
Authors: Rivero Silva Sebastián
Published: November 2024

El presente trabajo plantea una aproximación sintética a la cuestión de los derechos de explotación audiovisuales asociados a las competiciones deportivas y más concretamente, a la naturaleza de ‘’derechos conexos’’ atribuidos por la jurisprudencia a las grabaciones de los partidos de fútbol español. De igual forma, se plantea la situación actual y problemas legales consustanciales a la piratería de este material audiovisual.
En este afán, se tratan cuestiones de plena actualidad como puede ser el reciente Auto de fecha 13 de febrero de 2024, emitido por el Juzgado de lo Mercantil n.º 8 de Barcelona, en el seno de las Diligencias Preeliminares 27/2024-F o las numerosos expedientes sancionadores abiertos por la Comisión Nacional de los Mercados y la Competencia a raíz de la alta conflictividad en relación con los antedichos derechos de explotación audiovisuales.
La protección temporal de los ucranianos desplazados: un progreso en la construcción de la política migratoria común de la Unión Europea
Authors: Porras Ramírez José María
Published: November 2024

La crisis migratoria causada por la afluencia masiva de personas desplazadas, como consecuencia de la invasión rusa de Ucrania, ha hecho posible la aplicación, por vez primera, de la Directiva de Protección Temporal, de la cual la Unión Europea no se había decidido hacer uso hasta el presente. En este trabajo se analiza el alcance de una respuesta que ha hecho posible la entrada, sin obstáculos legales, y la permanencia temporal, en el territorio de la Unión, de los ucranianos y de las personas procedentes de Ucrania. Una Directiva que, al tiempo, ha obligado a los Estados miembros a contraer obligaciones equitativas, que proporcionan un nivel adecuado de acogida a quienes son destinatarios de sus acciones. Por todo ello, y a pesar de las evidentes dificultades y deficiencias operativas, logísticas y asistenciales que su aplicación ha comportado, lo cierto es que la Directiva, gracias a la movilización de recursos humanos y financieros necesarios, ha hecho posible la atención y el reconocimiento inmediato de derechos a las personas desplazadas, en expresión de una solidaridad que debería considerarse anuncio o anticipo de una política migratoria común europea, digna de ese nombre, la cual debería erigirse en alternativa a la que, dominada por un enfoque estrictamente securitario, quiere imponerse hoy.

Authors: Thomas Jack
Published: November 2024

Traffic sign detection plays a critical role in Intelli-gent Transport Systems (ITS) and Advanced Driver AssistanceSystems (ADAS), contributing to the safety and efficiency ofautonomous driving. Recent advances in deep learning, par-ticularly in object detection algorithms, have made real-timedetection of traffic signs feasible. This paper evaluates andcompares the performance of four widely used deep learningmodels—YOLOv5, YOLOv6, YOLOv7, and YOLOv8. Throughdetailed analysis of key performance indicators such as meanAverage Precision (mAP), inference speed, and computationalefficiency, this research identifies the most suitable model fortraffic sign detection in varying environmental conditions. Ourresults show that YOLOv8 strikes the best balance betweenaccuracy and real-time performance, making it the optimal choicefor deployment in edge devices within ITS applications.
Visual and Somatomotor Contribution to Random Number Generation During a Head Rotation Task in Augmented Reality
Authors: Genc Sura , Stäubli Kim , Casanova Luisa , Brugger Peter , Roel Lesur Marte , Lenggenhager Bigna
Published: November 2024

Embodied cognition research suggests a functional link between numerical and spatial cognition. Accordingly, numbers are assumed to be mentally represented on a “number line”, with smaller numbers on the left and larger numbers on the right in Western culture. Supporting this, prior findings show a numerical lateralization effect, where participants generating random numbers while turning their heads sideways produce more small numbers when facing left than when facing right. Here, we aimed to replicate and extend these findings by investigating the relative contributions of visual and proprioceptive signals to the spatial-numerical association. Our novel augmented reality setup enabled us to separate visual and proprioceptive cues for horizontal head rotation. We hypothesized that participants would generate more small numbers when facing left in the ordinary visual perspective (normal condition, i.e., proprioceptive and visual cues aligned), and that this tendency would be reduced when the visual axis was inverted (inverted condition). We also used a rod and frame task to assess the individuals’ visual dependency and a newly developed side detection task for head somatomotor rotation sensitivity. We hypothesized that visual dependency would correlate with numerical lateralization, while an inverted pattern would be observed for head rotation sensitivity. Results showed moderate evidence against the effect of head direction, indicating that we were unable to replicate the previously reported effect. Additionally, the moderate evidence against the effect of condition suggests that inverting the visual field did not reduce the frequency of small numbers generated when looking left. These findings imply that the spatial bias in number generation may be less robust or may not generalize to head-mounted display setups.
Pseudo-Optimal Evidence Accumulation as a Foundation for Multi-Choice Irrationalities
Authors: Miyoshi Kiyofumi , Sakamoto Yosuke
Published: November 2024

Everyday decision-making often involves choosing between multiple alternatives, and establishing unified theories for this process would benefit broad disciplines of behavioral science. A key challenge lies in explaining behavioral irrationalities that specifically arise in multi-alternative decisions. This study, based on pre-registered procedures, investigated such non-normative behaviors in a three-choice dot numerosity discrimination task. We systematically manipulated the value of the lowest-numerosity alternative (the dud stimulus) and quantified its non-normative effects on choice, response time, and confidence. We then explained observed irrational behaviors with a sequential evidence accumulation model featuring a “max vs. next” decision algorithm. This pseudo-optimal decision-making rule naturally captured a well-known non-normative choice pattern: the violation of the independence of irrelevant alternatives. Our model also explained a multi-choice metacognitive bias, known as the dud-alternative confidence boost, by considering evidence accumulation dynamics right after stimulus presentation. By uncovering the computational processes behind these non-normative multi-choice behaviors, this study represents a significant advancement in understanding the core principles of decision-making.
Age-Invariant Benefits of Spatiotemporal Predictions Amidst Distraction during Dynamic Visual Search
Authors: Shalev Nir , Boettcher Sage , Nobre Kia
Published: November 2024

Visual search tasks are commonly used to study how people guide their attention amidst distraction. Developmental studies have used visual search to explore age-related differences in attention. Typical findings show that performance declines and sensitivity to distraction increases in older compared to younger adults. Such findings are taken as evidence of the declining abilities in goal-driven attention. However, standard visual search tasks use static displays and therefore fail to capture the challenges and opportunities in natural environments, which include predictive structures within extended contexts. To investigate how adults of different ages guide their attention in dynamic and extended contexts, we used our recently developed Dynamic Visual Search (DVS). In DVS targets and distractors compete over time and embedded spatiotemporal regularities afford prediction-led guidance of attention. Critically, we manipulated the levels of distraction to chart whether and how benefits of expectations and deficits from distraction varied with age. Younger and older adults searched for multiple visual targets as they faded in and out of the display among distractors while varying the number of distracting elements. Half the targets always appeared at the same time and approximate locations and could be predicted. While we found evidence for decrement and elevated sensitivity to distraction with increasing age, benefits from predictions occurred in all groups. Interestingly, regardless of age, effects of predictions were only significant during periods of high distraction. This work extends our understanding of attention control through ageing to dynamic settings and indicates a dissociation between goal-directed and learning-driven and attentional guidance.

The repair of worn steel shaft surfaces in power transmission systems is made possible by thermal spray procedures, which have become an essential technology in many sectors. With this novel approach, worn shaft components may be recycled effectively since an API 687-compliant wear-resistant coating designed for specialty rotating equipment repairs is applied. The process's efficacy stems from its capacity to extend the functional life of essential mechanical components, therefore decreasing replacement expenses and downtime. The variety of factors that affect the result highlights the intricacy of thermal spray techniques. Finding the ideal mix of these crucial process variables becomes essential to provide the required degree of wear resistance. The coated shafts perform better as a result of this careful tuning, which also guarantees dependability under challenging working conditions. The coated shafts' surface hardness data in this investigation showed that the initial coating hardness value was below the predetermined goals. Several parts that interact with the shaft were redesigned strategically in response to these discoveries. These adjustments were mainly motivated by economic considerations, to optimize effectiveness while resolving the noted hardness deficiencies. Furthermore, a thorough analysis of failure data showed important correlations between different operational parameters and how they interacted, offering a further understanding of how these factors affected wear resistance. This research allowed for the identification of crucial parameters that required change and emphasized the precise balance essential for optimum thermal spray application. All things considered, this study emphasizes how critical it is to use a methodical approach to improve thermal spray processes, guarantee successful shaft component restoration, and ultimately increase the operational longevity of such components in challenging applications.

Methodological approaches to the development and implementation of foreign anti-stress technologies in the work with extreme professionals
Authors: Kravchenko Oksana , Horbachuk Hryhorii
Published: November 2024

The sources of life and professional stresses, including the risks of the ‘new global reality’ determined by artificial intelligence, are generalised and differentiated (by levels of professional and labour and individual psychological environment). The psychological aspects of occupational health are outlined by the structural phenomenology of occupational stress, in terms of activity stress (physiological, subject-activity and information) and relationship stress (business and personal). The implementation of programmes to improve stress resistance in the SES of Ukraine has shown that stress resistance is partially determined by the circumstances of individuality, training, experience, status, and should be considered as a universal life and professional competence that can be developed. Four approaches to the implementation of anti-stress technologies are allocated: through the organisation of the professional environment; education and training of specialists; correction of stress conditions and consequences; integration of personal characteristics and lifestyle (mastering stress management and health management). The author proposes a three-level instrumental concept of application of stress management methods at the level of strategic self-determination, resource allocation and relief of physiological discomfort.
The available results of research and practical experience make it possible, within the framework of a systemic and integrated approach, to develop universal, but at the same time flexible (taking into account the specifics of the situation, organisation or type of activity) stress management protocols (implementation of anti-stress technologies) at the level of the individual or social and production structure in order to improve professional health and increase the efficiency of the work of specialists of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine.
CRITICAL THINKING DEVELOPMENT THROUGH MUSEUM PEDAGOGY

Published: November 2024

This article is devoted to the theoretical foundations of the formation of critical thinking skills in secondary school students in the museum environment. The article analyses the work of the children’s department of the National Museum of Prague (Czech Republic) in terms of activities aimed at developing critical thinking. The analysis of activities within the museum allows us to conclude that such work is effective. The article analyses the development of critical thinking through the use of appropriate tasks, interactivity, and creativity. The purpose of the article is to provide recommendations for Ukrainian educational institutions in terms of borrowing such work. In the process of museum education, methods and techniques of interactive analysis, generalization and systematization of knowledge, and individual approach to students are used. The analysis of the state of critical thinking in the museum environment (based on the example of the children’s department of the National Museum in Prague) shows the broad prospects of such work based on active cooperation between the museum, school and family. Learning becomes effective when it awakens creativity, cognitive activity, encourages students to cooperate, and fosters a way of living a full life, taking into account the necessary forms, methods of its organization and implementation. The formation of key competences and the development of critical thinking play an important role in this task. The Concept of the New Ukrainian School points to the need to develop student’s critical thinking as a cross-cutting skill, which is the basis for the formation of competences and relevant skills.
FORMATION OF SENSIMOTOR FEELINGS IN CHILDREN OF YOUNGER SCHOOL AGE WITH DISORDERS OF INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENT
Authors: Moiseienko Iryna , Shainoha Tetiana
Published: November 2024

The article examines the features of sensorimotor development of children with intellectual disability (ID), who often face difficulties in coordination of movements, fine motor skills, sensory perception and spatial adaptation. Special attention is paid to how sensorimotor skills affect learning success, including writing, drawing, and performing everyday tasks. The generalization of literary sources confirms that sensorimotor development is important for cognitive activity, the formation of educational competencies and children’s behavior. The described motor assessment methods include aspects such as dynamic and reciprocal coordination, differentiation of movements, kinesthetic gnosis, optic-spatial coordination, rhythmicity, and praxis. Research results indicate significant difficulties in children with PIR, especially in the regulation of movements of fingers and hands, dynamic coordination and execution of serial movements. These problems can lead to significant difficulties in the performance of graphomotor skills, such as writing, drawing and other visual activities. Insufficiently developed motor skills negatively affect the overall development of the child and his ability to adapt in the educational environment. The article recommends a variety of remedial interventions, including finger gymnastics, art therapy techniques, and exercises with a variety of objects to improve sensorimotor skills. Special emphasis is placed on the need for a playful approach in working with children with PID, as well as speech support to facilitate the performance of complex motor tasks. A systematic approach, which takes into account the individual characteristics of each child and his personal immaturity, is the key to the successful correction of motor problems in children with impaired intellectual development.

Authors: Suiatynova Kateryna
Published: November 2024

Digital technologies are being actively integrated into the preschool education system, and this process is objective and inevitable. Educators use developmental media products for preschoolers daily (presentations, video materials, computer games, websites, etc.). The main goal of the study was to theoretically substantiate and describe the process of using quests and webquests in the educational process of a preschool institution. To achieve this goal, the following tasks were set: 1) to analyze the state of research on the use of webquests in preschool education; 2) to investigate the features of using webquests to enhance digital and communicative competencies among preschool children. In the process of scientific research, the following methods were used: analysis and synthesis; generalization; classification.The circumstances of the pandemic and full-scale invasion have presented educators with a challenging task of choosing digital technologies and have strengthened the need to rethink traditional approaches to teaching, upbringing, and development of learners, especially in preschool education. It is digitalization in education that has become a reliable assistant to education, allowing to ensure continuity and succession of the educational process and helped to adapt to new learning conditions. This research provides an original definition of a “webquest”. In our opinion, using webquests in such learning conditions is the most effective and contributes to the formation of digital and communicative competences of preschool children. It is known that starting from the younger preschool age, children’s cognitive activity increases. To meet the cognitive needs, educators need to use innovative technologies, one of which is the quest technology. The integration of innovative technologies and tools into early childhood education programs can provide interactive learning experiences that foster a love of learning and empower every child to become an active learner.
