In silico comparative transcriptome analysis of Papaver somniferum cultivars
Authors: Gürkök Tan Tuğba , Türktaş Mine , Güçlü Gülşen
Published: December 2023

Papaver somniferum is a medicinal plant of the Papaveraceae family that has traditionally been used for diet or its therapeutic value for thousands of years. Mainly, morphine and noscapine alkaloids exhibit anti-analgesic and anti-cancer effects. However, gene expression patterns and regulatory elements, such as transcription factors between different tissues, still need to be detected. In this study, comparative in silico transcriptome analyses were conducted to examine the tissue-specificity of the benzylisoquinoline alkaloids (BIAs) biosynthetic genes and transcription factors (TFs) between morphine and noscapine cultivars. Analysis showed that BIA biosynthetic genes are expressed in a different pattern between two varieties. Results showed that some members of plant-specific secondary metabolites related to TF families, such as MYB, MADS-box, bHLH, NAC, and WRKY, are differentially expressed between tissues and varieties.
A behavior screening questionnaire improves problem identification in veterinary primary care with implications for patient health
Authors: Duxbury Margaret M. , Sobczynski Helen , Flynn Kristi , Rendahl Aaron
Published: December 2023

OBJECTIVE

To compare how often owners identified concerns about their pets’ behavior during routine examinations in 2 test conditions (voluntarily or when completing a questionnaire), and to test the efficacy of a simple behavior screening questionnaire to be used by practicing veterinarians.

ANIMALS

Privately owned dogs and cats presenting for routine examinations to 1 of 2 primary care clinics.

METHODS

The study was conducted in 2 sequential phases. In Phase 1, veterinary staff recorded whether pet owners or veterinarians inquired about behavior during routine examinations. In Phase 2, a different set of pet owners completed a short behavioral screening questionnaire as they waited for the veterinarian. We compared the 2 phases for how often behavior concerns were identified, the types of concerns, the pets’ ages, and the owners’ levels of satisfaction and desire for help.

RESULTS

Dog and cat owners were more likely to identify behavior concerns when prompted than they were to volunteer this information, especially for older patients in which behavior changes may be the first sign of disease. Most owners were satisfied with their pets’ behavior, though owners were more likely to be unsatisfied with certain identified concerns. Owners who were dissatisfied were much more likely to want help.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

A behavior screening questionnaire enhances detection of behavior problems that may have medical implications and impact the security of the pet in its home. A behavior screening questionnaire can elevate standard of care by enabling veterinarians to quickly assess behavior during every examination.

Published: December 2023

OBJECTIVE

To determine quality-of-life changes in owners of dogs undergoing mitral valve repair for myxomatous mitral valve disease, up to 12 months postoperatively.

SAMPLE

Owners of 26 dogs undergoing mitral valve repair at a single UK veterinary referral hospital.

METHODS

Dogs underwent mitral valve repair under cardiopulmonary bypass as previously described. Owner quality of life was assessed by self-completion of a previously validated questionnaire preoperatively and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively.

RESULTS

There was a statistically significant improvement in quality-of-life scores from preoperatively up to 3 months postoperatively and a statistically significant improvement in individual question scores up to 6 months postoperatively.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Results suggested that owner quality of life is significantly improved following surgical repair of their pet’s myxomatous mitral valve disease, and this improvement continues beyond the immediate postoperative period. These results may be useful when counseling owners of surgical candidates and is another useful outcome measure.
The prognosis for return to athletic function for Thoroughbred racehorses in Hong Kong with injuries to the palmaroproximal aspect of the metacarpus diagnosed using low-field magnetic resonance imaging
Authors: Ratcliffe Thomas O. C. , Robinson Paul , Rosanowski Sarah M.
Published: December 2023

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate and compare the prognosis for Thoroughbred racehorses to return to galloping and racing with injuries to the palmaroproximal metacarpus diagnosed with MRI.

ANIMALS

29 flat racing Thoroughbreds at the Hong Kong Jockey Club that underwent MRI between 2014 and 2022.

METHODS

Clinical, radiographic, ultrasonographic, and MRI reports were collected from veterinary clinical records, and these were combined with training and racing data. Horses were categorized on the basis of MRI diagnosis: (1) proximal suspensory ligament (PSL) involvement only, (2) PSL and concurrent proximal third metacarpal (MC3) bone involvement, and (3) proximal MC3 bone involvement only. The following were compared for prognosis for return to athletic function: return to galloping or racing, and reinjury.

RESULTS

Overall, the prognosis for return to athletic function was fair, with 92% (22/24; P = .53) and 67% (16/24; P = .73) of horses returning to galloping and racing, respectively. There was a relatively low reinjury rate, with 18% (4/22) of horses reinjuring. Horses with concurrent injury to both the PSL and proximal MC3 bone (Category 2) took longer to return to gallop (median, 116; IQR, 100.5 to 160), when compared with horses having only PSL injury (median, 69; IQR, 43 to 80; P = .04). Of the 4 horses that reinjured, 3 (75%) were horses in Category 2.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

The findings from this study suggest that injuries involving both PSL and proximal MC3 bone concurrently require a longer rehabilitation period than those with PSL involvement alone.

Authors: Liu Nannan , Lv Wenming , Lv Hongying , San Zhihao , Piao Yulan , Li Fenglin
Published: December 2023

Cold temperatures limit the survival and reproduction of honeybees. Therefore, successful overwintering is crucial for the survival of honeybee colonies and the pollination of flowering plants in the following spring. This study analyzed the gut microbiota of Apis cerana from Changbai Mountain during the overwintering period through 16S rDNA high-throughput sequencing. The analysis of microbial community composition showed that Gilliamella, Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium and Snodgrassella were the core genera in the honeybee gut during the overwintering period. Moreover, alpha diversity analysis showed that the community diversity of the gut microbiota peaked in December. Beta diversity and LEfSe analysis showed that community composition was similar in December, January and February and that such beneficial bacteria as Snodgrassella, Acetobacteraceae, and Rhizobiales were differentially abundant during this period. The results of functional prediction analysis indicate that amino acid transport and metabolism, carbohydrate transport and metabolism, and the TCA cycle play an important role in overwintering. These results suggest that the dynamic changes in the gut microbiota of A. cerana during winter and mechanisms tolerate cold stress.

Published: December 2023

Perancak is an estuary area with land use in mangroves and ponds. Land changes that have occurred at the Perancak River estuary and tidal flooding in recent years have increased the potential for sedimentation problems that can cause silting of the riverbed. This study aims to determine the sedimentation rate and identify the potential for siltation in the estuary of the Perancak River. Sediment modeling uses the Finite Volume Coastal Ocean Model (FVCOM) by entering primary and secondary data such as bathymetry, tides, temperature, salinity, river discharge, sediment type, and Total Suspended Solid (TSS) concentration. Modeling for 33 days (January - February 2022). The results showed that the sedimentation rate in the Perancak River estuary ranged from 0.25 to 18.8 kg/m2/day, with an average of 3.83 kg/m2/day. Sedimentation rates are high in the estuary areas and riverbanks bordering the mainland. The potential for siltation shows that it occurs at river mouths with a silting value of about 0.01 m/year to more than 0.05 m/year.

O- and H-isotope record of Cape Town rainfall from 1996 to 2022: the effect of increasing temperature, and the ‘water crisis’ of 2015 to 2018
Authors: Harris C.
Published: December 2023

The O- and H-isotope composition of rainfall collected monthly at the University of Cape Town (UCT) between 2009 and 2022 has been added to a previously published data set from 1996 to 2008 to make a continuous 27 year record. Monthly rainfall over the 27 year period has a range in δD and δ18O values from -57 to +21‰ and -8.1 to +3.5‰, respectively, and shows limited but discernible temperature and amount effects. The 27 year rainfall record defines a Local Meteoric Water Line (LMWL) whose equation is δD = 5.96*δ18O + 7.00 (r = 0.88), a slight change from the LMWL of 1996 to 2009 (6.41*δ18O + 8.89). Annual rainfall at UCT has varied from ~992 mm (2017) to 1996 mm (2013), with no systematic change in annual rainfall amount (r = −0.16). However, from 2015 to 2022, the average annual rainfall of 1 145 mm has been below the 27 year average of 1 313 mm. Mean monthly temperature has increased from 1996 to 2022 (r = 0.53), and the weighted mean annual δD and δ18O values have increased by ~4‰ (r = 0.53) and ~0.5‰ (r = 0.64), respectively, over the 27 years. The UCT data and the data for 1961 to 1974 from Cape Town International Airport plot around the same LMWL, with an average deuterium excess (d-excess) of 13.78 and 12.95, respectively. Natural springs in the area plot close to the LMWL with an average d-excess of 14.15, whereas local well-point and borehole water samples generally plot below the LMWL with an average d-excess of 10.65. These differences can be explained by relatively rapid recharge of springs and slower recharge of groundwater, with the latter containing an additional component, that could either be rainwater that fell during a period of hotter drier climate or, more probably, municipal mains water. Long-term monitoring of groundwater and spring water as well as rainwater would be of great help in assessing the sustainability of groundwater use, among other important questions.

Ontological, epistemological and anthropological dimensions of creativity in the context of classical European philosophy
Authors: Kachay Ilya Sergeevich
Published: December 2023

The object of this research is creativity as a cultural and philosophical phenomenon. The subject of the research is the ontological, epistemological and anthropological aspects of creativity, revealed in the conceptual space of classical European philosophy. The aim of this research is to identify ways to understand creativity as a cultural and philosophical phenomenon through the prism of the views of the largest representatives of European philosophical thought. When considering the essential foundations of creativity, special attention is paid to the ontological, epistemological and anthropological nature of creativity, which is emphasized in the conceptual constructions of Plato, Aristotle, Augustine Blessed, Thomas Aquinas, F. Bacon, R. Descartes, J. Locke, I. Kant and F.W.J. Schelling. The theoretical basis of this research is the original works of representatives of classical European philosophy, as well as modern research in the field of philosophy of creativity. The methodological foundation of the research is the comparative analysis and the method of contextual vision of creativity. The main result of the conducted research is the articulation of the understanding of the phenomenon of creativity in the context of the classical period of the development of European philosophical thought from the standpoint of ontological, gnoseological and anthropological approaches. Based on the identified aspects of the desired cultural phenomenon, a historically determined concept of creativity is presented. The scientific novelty of the research also lies in the discovery and accentuation of both explicit and implicit aspirations of the classics of European philosophy to the essential understanding of the genuine and false intentions of the creative subject.
Vacío vital, metanarración y fantasía. Los cuentos de "El elefante desaparece" de Murakami
Authors:   Universidad de Almería, Castellón Alcalá Heraclia
Published: December 2023

"The book The Elephant Vanishes includes many of the first stories written by Haruki Murakami. As for the common themes found in these seventeen stories, it should be pointed out that they present a gallery of characters who either find themselves in an existential point which determines a turn in their lives, or feel an inner gap, or are marked by a hidden force that afflicts them, or are affected by what might have happened but did not. As discernible elements in the stories, the inclusion of metanarrative elements, the emergence of the fantastic world, the use of humour in certain passages and the appearance of the autobiographical narrator are worthy of mention."
"Tampoco no" (y otros fenómenos de concordancia negativa) en las variedades vernáculas del español contemporáneo
Authors:   Università Ca’Foscari Venezia, del Barrio de la Rosa Florencio
Published: December 2023

"The negative adverb tampoco has not raised enough attention from linguists and, therefore, no monographic analysis has been devoted to its study. This article explores one of the most salient features of this adverb in non-standard Spanish varieties: its tendency to maintain the negative adverb no in preverbal position. This construction is not limited to bilingual varieties, as previous literature has taken for granted. The hypothesis presented in this article proposes that this construction materializes a silent head (no) of Polarity Phrase. To sustain this hypothesis, lexical, syntactic, pragmatic, and diachronic arguments will be considered. This study is based on the analysis of around 700 tokens of tampoco no with data taken from oral and colloquial corpora. The article finally propounds this phenomenon as a Spanish vernacular universal."
La imagen del «moro» en "España en el corazón" de Pablo Neruda
Authors:   Universidad de Huelva, Gómez Canseco Luis
Published: December 2023

"In España en el corazón, Neruda presented a negative image of the North African troops that supported Franco in the Spanish Civil War. His representation of the Moor is similar to that offered in the romances written by Republican soldiers. The poet decided to further illustrate this topic with graphic images in the edition of the book that was published in Chile in 1938."
Observaciones de autores del siglo XIX acerca de palabras que faltan en la lengua y en el diccionario

Published: December 2023

"This article presents, analyses and contextualises the reflections that authors –non-writers– of the 19th century made on lexical novelty. The opinions of scholars and intellectuals, both academic and non-academic, on the admission of new voices, lexical creations or loanwords serve to expose their linguistic ideas and to assess the role of the Royal Spanish Academy and its dictionary in the shaping of a language model. In particular, their opinions shed light on the interest shown regarding matters related to language, the lexicon and the fate of specific words."
El valor neutralizador del movimiento en los preverbios separables del alemán: retroalteraciones de adv dir a adv est
Authors:   Universidad de Sevilla, López-Campos Bodineau Rafael
Published: December 2023

"In German, the expression of directionality within the framework of prepositional groups introduced by one of the so-called «Wechselpräpositionen» is carried out by applying an accusative regime, unlike what happens with the dative case, which usually refers to meanings that imply a static import. In the case of certain verbs of displacement, however, the use of a very specific separable prefix can annul this accusative regime and, despite maintaining the displacement relationship, reconvert it into the dative. One of the clearest examples of this phenomenon is the transformation into the dative, instead of the accusative, to which tends any prepositional relationship of the verb kommen (in die Stadt kommen > in der Stadt ankommen). The objective of this essay is to study the cases in which this phenomenon occurs by resorting to a corpus of work and, likewise, to analyze to what extent it can be productive in other German verbs."
María del Pilar Sinués: una traductora de obras edificantes
Authors:   University of Dallas, Pérez Bernardo María Luisa
Published: December 2023

"María del Pilar Sinués (1835-1893) wrote more than a hundred works, most of them novels. She also collaborated with magazines and participated in different cultural institutions. The author was a representative of traditional Christian values, and her writings dealt with, and intermingled, literature and pedagogy. She dedicated much of her time and effort to translation; however, her contributions in this regard are less well known. In fact, Sinués de Marco, like Joaquina García Balmaseda (1837-1911) and Faustina Sáez de Melgar (1834-1895), devoted most of her time to translating French works which were published in the main newspapers of her time. This essay discusses how she translated into Spanish the novels of many writers, some of them well known, such as Alfred Musset (1810-1857), Paul Féval (1817-1887) and Hendrik Conscience (1812-1883) and others not so renowned, such as Mauricio Barr (1862-1923), Mathilde Bourdon (1817-1888), and Gyp (1850-1932). The writer’s interest in translating foreign novels that served to educate women and transform them into good Christians will also be analyzed, highlighting how Sinués promoted edifying, formative, and orthodox novels."
May the illocutionary force be with you: the anaphora rule in english-spanish voice-over translation
Authors:   Universidad de Oviedo, Rodríguez Fernández-Peña Alfonso Carlos
Published: December 2023

"This paper explores the rendition possibilities of English deaccenting by anaphora rule (given information) in Spanish voice-over translation by means of a study of 9 unscripted programmes, including documentaries, reality shows and news interviews. The intonational component of source languages in translation has barely gained any attention in Audiovisual Translation (AVT), even when English prosody is immensely rich from a communicative and pragmatic perspective. In addition, we cannot expect to find a one-to-one relationship between the intonational systems of source and target languages, nor consider all parts of the source text equally relevant. For this reason, the deaccenting of old information in oral English and the pragmatic and illocutionary load that it carries need to be properly rendered in the target language, in our case Spanish, by means of the resources available in this language, which may not only be prosodic, but also syntactic and semantic."
Tiempo y memoria en el espacio: el mar como metáfora en la poesía de Kim Chunsu
Authors:   Universidad de Salamanca, Rodríguez López Elia
Published: December 2023

"The prevalence of spatial metaphors to refer to temporal experiences suggests the existence of cognitive processes according to which the physical and concrete experience of space structures the human temporal dimension and serves for anchoring memory. Approached as a means to access such subjective interpretations of the world, the poetic text allows an inquiry into the conceptions of the subject concerning time, memory, and space. Based on these considerations, this paper examines the images of the sea in two poems by Korean poet Kim Chunsu (1922-2004), in which it appears as a metaphor for time and memory. A detailed analysis of these poems reveals how the poet uses maritime space metaphorically to represent both the inevitable destiny of human life –death– and its origin, crystallized in childhood memories. Likewise, the study of the conceptual metaphors in the poems also demonstrates a distinct conception of time, characterized by a circularity that affects both the individuals and the communities to which they belong."
Los verbos alemanes sufijados en -ier-: estudio basado en un corpus literario
Authors:   Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Sánchez Hernández Paloma
Published: December 2023

"This paper deals with word formation and Applied Linguistics, as far as Corpus Linguistics is concerned. Features and functions of verbs with the suffix -ier will be traced in a literary corpus. An in-depth study of the following aspects is proposed: the origin and evolution of this suffix and its variants will be determined, the features and functions of this suffix will be described, based upon the available bibliography about word formation, and an analysis of the frequency of appearance and use of -ier within a corpus of five literary works from the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries will be made. First of all, a theoretical framework is set up regarding the morphological, semantic and syntactic features of these types of verbs. Secondly, the empirical work will be carried out through a corpus analysis based on that theoretical framework. Finally, the frequency of appearance of such verbs in our corpus will be analysed. The final hypothesis will show that the functions and behavioural patterns of this type of verbs are diverse, but they do not differ very much from those described in the available literature."
Engaging spanish english-major undergraduate students through imagery and motivational activities
Authors:   Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Sandu Bianca Manuela , Rodríguez Gil María Esther ,   Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria
Published: December 2023

"This research study analyses the impact of a vision-based intervention programme on the motivation of fifty-eight English-major students in the first year of their degree in Modern Languages at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain, based on Dörnyei’s (2009) L2 Motivational Self System (L2MSS). A Motivational Factors Questionnaire (MFQ) and an online English language competence test were administered twice, in preand post- implementation phases, in order to explore the effects of this intervention on the participants’ motivational profile towards learning English as a foreign language. The MFQ contained 50 items comprising 8 dimensions targeting ideal L2 self, ought-to L2 self, and L2 learning experience, alongside a range of related motivational variables. The results obtained confirmed the importance of L2 learning experience as a strong predictor of intended learning effort in both phases, while ideal L2 self emerged in the post intervention phase."
La traducción literaria y la cuestión de la renovación de la lengua árabe durante la Nahḍa
Authors:   Universitat de Barcelona, Tagourramt El Kbaich Abdallah
Published: December 2023

"Aware of the literary heritage that was spreading and renewing itself on the northern shores of the Mediterranean, the Arab literary figures of the Nahḍa did everything possible to welcome this new literature that emanated from the European Enlightenment. Indeed, translation was the ideal instrument to address this new nineteenth-century literary reality. However, the sole translation of texts did not help to achieve the objectives pursued. In this article, the problem of Arab cultural identity is approached from a linguistic-literary perspective. Emphasis will be placed on issues related to paratextual phenomena, language and translation criticism, the translation pact, and comparative literature. Within this context, the translations of some prominent experts in the field of literary translation will be studied, such as al-Ṭahṭāwī, al-Manfalūṭī, Wadī‘ and Sulaymān al-Bustānī. Finally, the first Arabic version of Victor Hugo’s Les Misérables will serve as a practical case through which the linguistic and cultural effects that literary translation had on contemporary Arabic language will be examined."

In technical aesthetics, cross-border characterizes the versatility of design, the ability to connect to the development of various products in printing, heavy and light industry, etc., combining aesthetic, technological and design solutions in a single project. In the same vein, adaptive design can be considered as a form of one of the approaches to finding optimal solutions in the context of rapidly developing technologies and global changes on the planet. The synthesis of cross-border and adaptability in the design culture of designers is manifested at all stages of the implementation of their products. The use of adaptive design methods in the process of training designers strengthens the socialization of the learning process, since adaptability as a technique primarily helps students correlate the search for a creative idea and the effectiveness of its implementation with the human factor. The pace of rapid penetration into the life of modern technologies creates situations in which the requirements for design methods change dramatically, force designers to focus on the conditions created by the need to constantly learn new skills in order to obtain results of maintaining a harmonious balance between the technogenic environment and society. The ability to organize such conditions that allow you to achieve a high level of comfort in a person’s stay in a modern, constantly changing world, and become one of the tasks of adaptive design. One of the areas of adaptive design, in which the Department of Design conducts scientific and design activities, is the research and design of rehabilitation and development game kits intended for people with disabilities. The growth among the world population of various forms of diseases and injuries that cause complex disorders of musculoskeletal and cognitive functions confirms the importance of developing adaptive design and the need to train designers in the features of this type of design.

The periodization of the development of mathematical science was proposed by A.N. Kolmogorov. He identifies four periods in the development of mathematics. The basis of periodization includes assessment of the content, level of achievements and features of mathematical research: its most important methods, results, ideas. Particular attention is paid to the development of probability theory structured according to Kolmogorov periods. The prerequisites for the formation of probability theory began to appear during the second millennium BC — the first period. During the period of accumulation of knowledge (before 600 BC), the concept of “chance” — the main concept in the science in question – began to develop. Until the third period, the concept was invariably associated with the philosophical category “fate,” that is, a certain predetermined process, which contradicts modern ideas about chance. Probability Theory received its unofficial name precisely from the period of elementary mathematics (before the 15–16th centuries) — the second period. The next period was called by Kolmogorov “Mathematics of Variables” (XVII–XVIII centuries). Since the beginning of the period of modern mathematics (since the 19th century), random variables and the patterns associated with them have come to the fore in probability theory. This is due to the general scientific growth in the 19th century. The main problems that arose by the end of the third period are being solved: all the basic concepts, rules for their application, and theorems are clearly defined. By the beginning of the 20th century — the fourth period–there was a need to formalize the acquired knowledge. Andrei Nikolaevich built a system based on modern and already developed by that time set theory and measure theory. The periodization of the development of mathematical science, proposed by A.N. Kolmogorov, with the rapid progress of mathematical knowledge and the emergence of information technologies in the future may require adjustments to the last stage of development of the history of mathematics or will lead to the emergence of a new stage of periodization.

Currently, Russian scientists and specialists face important tasks related to the process of digitalization of the economy and the need to accelerate the rate of development of high-tech industries, increase the competitiveness of domestic goods and services, and ensure the technological independence of the country. To solve these problems, it is necessary, first of all, to ensure continuous advanced training of qualified personnel for the modern labor market within digital economy. The paper reflects the current issues of modernization of the Russian education system taking into account the challenges of digital transformation. The problems of training qualified IT specialists and possible ways to make up for personnel shortfall in the IT industry are outlined. The activities carried out in educational institutions for the purpose of mastering relevant digital competencies by students are described. An innovative model of continuous training “school — university — enterprise” in the areas of digital economy has been developed and tested. The image of an IT-class graduate is revealed, representing a mobile, constantly self-improving personality with a set of digital competencies necessary for full participation in socially significant activities in a dynamically changing information society. The tasks are considered and the results of career guidance work with students of educational institutions are presented. The conclusion is made about the effectiveness of the implemented educational project for the development of the digital economy.
“REPLICAS” OF THE SOVIET IN MODERN SCHOOL EDUCATION
Authors:   Omsk State Pedagogical University, Omsk, Russia, Churkina N.I.
Published: December 2023

Modern Russian education is involved in the implementation of the policy of memory, for this the school uses various practices of commemoration, which, by perpetuating people, events, institutions, introduce the Soviet past into modern school culture. An analysis of normative documents and state education programs of recent years has shown that in the development of modern education programs, primarily patriotic education, they began to actively use the forms and methods of Soviet school education. This was confirmed by the results of a comparative analysis of three groups of sources: interviews of former teachers and schoolchildren about Soviet education; questioning of teachers and education advisers; plans for the educational work of several schools in Omsk. On the basis of theoretical and empirical analysis, the article concludes that many forms and methods of the Soviet system of education have returned to the modern school (rallies, meetings with war heroes, laying flowers at monuments, song and formation contests, etc.). But, at the same time, as the survey shows, the effectiveness of these forms of patriotic education is low. Of the many traditional practices, modern schoolchildren prefer observation and festive events. More complex communicative practices are incomprehensible, tedious, non-dynamic for them. The paper concludes that the problems of using these upbringing practices are due to the fact that they are a “replica”, repetition, they have lost their originality and power of emotional impact, and when using them, they do not take into account the characteristics (generational, psychological) of modern children.
MODERN PROBLEMS OF PEDAGOGICAL AXIOLOGY

Published: December 2023

The issues of values and values-based education are very urgent and widely discussed in pedagogy today. The researchers’ appeal to the ideas of pedagogical axiology is connected with an ambition to find approaches to how to form students’ value-based orientations and consider the education as the main way to solve this problem. The purpose of the article is to prove and describe the problematic directions of pedagogical axiology development presenting it as a disciplinary field of pedagogical knowledge. The author presents the stages of how the ideas of pedagogical axiology have been developing and shows the promising areas of pedagogical axiology development: discourse design and detailization in pedagogical axiology; the development of pedagogical axiology as an interdisciplinary paradigm; methodological specification of axiological research in pedagogy. The author pays special attention to how to choose methods for studying the values-based educational phenomena and value-based orientations of students; indicates the advantages and limitations of these methods while conducting pedagogical research. Pedagogical axiology has sufficient methodological resources for undertaking studies of value-based phenomena in education, but requires the readiness of a researcher to conduct axiological studies and use flexible methodology.

Among the goals of digital transformation, there is a transformation of the model from a traditional one into a model of continuing education, and under these circumstances, school becomes the stage where, among others, the basic skill of a modern person is formed — the ability to learn. Teaching to learn is one of the most important ideas of current federal state educational standards. The authors propose to consider a modern foreign language lesson in the unity of aspects-components: communicative-interactive, logistical, procedural, instrumental. Each of the conditional components, representing an independent whole, is determined by and determines itself the normal functioning of content and activity, internal and external entities, as regards the lesson as a form of organization of the educational process at school. It is suggested that the complete replacement of teaching tools and means with digital analogues is impractical, due to the need to take into account certain patterns of mastering linguistic norms, a foreign language communication, as well as compliance with the health care rules for children and adolescents – students of educational organizations implementing general education programs in the country. The purpose of the study is to reveal the prospects of digitalization within the framework of the modification of components-aspects of a foreign language lesson, as well as to analyze the basic principles and conditions required for the transition to one of the levels of digital transformation of education as proposed by modern researchers. The authors come to conclusion about the need of a multi-level approach to change, to digitalization of each of the components-aspects of the lesson, about the potential choice of the desired depth and intensity of digital transformations in each case.
