Victor Gruen e lo shopping mall come modello di social design
Authors: Scodeller Dario
Published: September 2022

Il saggio ricostruisce la genesi dello shopping mall come modello spaziale per il commercio contemporaneo, illustrandone la sua concezione nel contesto dello sviluppo della città americana del secondo dopoguerra ed esaminando alcuni dei motivi che hanno reso tale modello uno dei luoghi privilegiati della socialità contemporanea. Formulato sul piano teorico e operativo dallo Studio Gruen, il concetto spaziale e sociale del mall si è progressivamente insinuato in molte altre tipologie architettoniche, commerciali e non commerciali, promuovendone principalmente la dimensione ludico-commerciale rispetto all’originale formulazione, che prevedeva una equilibrata integrazione tra retail e servizi in una fruizione pedonalizzata. Il saggio si interroga, infine, sul fenomeno del deadmalling (lo smantellamento e la chiusura dei centri commerciali), che porrà nei prossimi decenni problemi di riconversione di questi luoghi, rendendo forse di nuovo attuale una delle originali vocazioni del mall come centro civico di aggregazione sociale.

This essay reconstructs the genesis of the shopping mall as a spatial model for contemporary retail trade, outlining its conception in the context of urban development in the United States after World War II. It also explores some of the reasons that have made this model one of the privileged spaces of contemporary socialization. Studio Gruen is credited with developing the spatial and social concept of the mall from a theoretical and practical point of view; the mall has progressively made its way into many other architectural typologies, both commercial and non-commercial, mainly promoting its recreational-commercial dimension as opposed to the original design, which envisaged a balanced integration of retail and facilities in a pedestrian-oriented context. Finally, the essay examines the phenomenon of “deadmalling” (the dismantling and closure of shopping centres), which will create the issue of having to decide how to reconvert these places in the coming decades, perhaps giving new relevance to one of the original functions of the mall as a social space for aggregation.
Luoghi urbani a vocazione commerciale, dalla crisi a nuove opportunità per la rigenerazione
Authors: Ruscelli Ivano
Published: September 2022

Le aree a vocazione commerciale urbana nascono da uno sviluppo graduale “naturale”, in cui sono presenti tanti soggetti non coordinati. È necessario stimolare il processo di valorizzazione. Si rappresenta qui il percorso per la valorizzazione dei mercati rionali intrapreso a Bologna, il passaggio da dei mercati specializzati su un’unica funzione, a nuovi formati in cui l’offerta commerciale è più integrata, in cui sono presenti servizi, pubblici esercizi, in cui il mercato si propone come luogo che cambia la sua funzione nell’arco della giornata. I casi di 5 mercati: delle Erbe, Albani, Aldrovandi, Cirenaica, Vittorio Veneto. Il metodo di intervento è stato quello di condividere una visione, accompagnare il processo. L’inserimento di nuove risorse ha stimolato anche chi era presente da tempo. Il confronto con queste dinamiche stimola il ripensamento sia degli strumenti normativi sia delle modalità di interlocuzione.

Urban commercial areas arise from a gradual ‘natural’ development in which there are many uncoordinated stakeholders. Thus, the process of enhancement of these areas needs to be stimulated. The present works describes the process for the valorisation of the district markets in Bologna, consisting of the transition from specialised markets to new formats in which the commercial offer is more integrated. Services and shops are both present in this new market, and thus its function changes throughout the day. Five markets are explored here: delle Erbe, Albani, Aldrovandi, Cirenaica and Vittorio Veneto. A shared vision was the key element guiding the enhancement process. The inclusion of new resources also stimulated those who had been present for some time. Dealing with these dynamics stimulates rethinking both the regulatory instruments and the methods of intervention.

Published: September 2022

Introducción: Entre el 5-10% de los pacientes que se someten a cirugía curativa por cáncer colorrectal (CCR) presentarán en algún momento recurrencia de su enfermedad a nivel pulmonar. El tratamiento quirúrgico de las metástasis pulmonares (MP) fue ganando popularidad a través de los años, diferentes publicaciones informan una tasa de supervivencia global a los 5 años de entre 30% a 60%. Presentamos una revisión de pacientes con resecciones por MP de CCR tratados en un único centro en Argentina.
Materiales y métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, observacional, retrospectivo entre 2008 y 2018. Se incluyeron todos los pacientes con resecciones de MP de CCR.  El objetivo primario fue evaluar la supervivencia global y  supervivencia libre de enfermedad. Como objetivo secundario se evaluaron posibles factores pronósticos.
Resultados: Se realizaron un total de 99 cirugías en los 68 pacientes, la resección fue múltiple en un 48,5%, siendo más de 3 nódulos en un 13%. La supervivencia global y libre de progresión a los 5 años fue del 55% y del 27% respectivamente. En el análisis estadístico encontramos que las lesiones en más de un lóbulo (p=0.015) y la resección de más de 3 nódulos (p=0.011) presentaron una menor supervivencia global.
Conclusiones: En este análisis retrospectivo evidenciamos valores comparables a la literatura mundial con respecto a morbilidad, mortalidad, supervivencia global y libre de progresión. En nuestra serie los pacientes con enfermedad en más de un lóbulo o más de tres lesiones resecadas presentan significativamente menor supervivencia global.

Published: September 2022

Introducción: la literatura publicada relacionada con la salud bucal de las personas con discapacidad visual (DV) es escasa, esta población presenta barreras para el acceso a servicios odontológicos, tiene alta prevalencia de enfermedades bucodentales y está expuesta a factores de riesgo que aumentan su vulnerabilidad.

Objetivo: realizar una revisión de la literatura científica para describir los estudios que abordan la salud bucal en personas con DV que sirva como insumo a los profesionales de la salud que atienden y educan a esta población.

Métodos: revisión bibliográfica con enfoque descriptivo, se incluyeron 26 artículos originales. Los estudiosseleccionados fueron publicados en los últimos seis años (2014-2020 marzo) en inglés, portugués y español. Las bases de datos usadas fueron Biblioteca Virtual en Salud, SciELO, PubMed, Scopus y Clinical Key. Se usaron palabras clave combinadas con operadores booleanos “AND” y “OR”.

Resultados: existen pocos estudios sobre la asistencia de las personas con DV a los servicios odontológicos. Se evidencian deficientes niveles de conocimientos y prácticas en salud bucal, lo que aumenta la vulnerabilidad frente a factores de riesgo para adquirir patologías en comparación con la población en general. La caries y enfermedad periodontal se reportan como las patologías bucales más prevalentes. En las intervenciones en promoción y educación para la salud se recomienda involucrar a padres, cuidadores y tutores para aumentar la tasa de éxito.

Conclusiones: las personas con DV adquieren con facilidad patologías bucales, por lo tanto requieren atención odontológica e intervenciones de promoción de la salud adaptadas a sus necesidades.

What mechanisms mediate prior probability effects on rapid-choice decision-making?
Authors: Puri Rohan , Hinder Mark R. , Heathcote Andrew
Published: September 2022

Rapid-choice decision-making is influenced by various factors, one of which is the prior probability of various response alternatives (‘bias’). Conventionally, prior probability effects are assumed to selectively manifest in terms of the amount of evidence required to trigger a decision (‘response threshold’). However, the generalizability of this assumption remains untested.Healthy young (n = 21) and older (n = 20) adults completed a choice response-time task requiring left- or right-hand responses to imperative stimuli (IS). Prior probability was manipulated using a warning signal (WS) that informed participants that a particular response was 70% likely (i.e., the IS was either congruent or incongruent with the WS). In addition, prior probability was either fixed for blocks of trials (block-wise bias) or varied from trial-to-trial (trial-wise bias). Response-time and accuracy data were analysed using evidence accumulation modelling to test the selective influence assumption.Response-times were slower on correct incongruent, than correct congruent, trials and older adults were slower but more accurate than young adults. From an evidence accumulation perspective, a) models that allowed bias to vary over response threshold and nondecision time had the best fit, and b) removing response threshold and nondecision time bias effects lead to significant and consistent model misfit whereas removing the evidence accumulation rate bias effect lead to relatively lesser and inconsistent model misfit.Overall, the current results cast doubt on the selective influence assumption of prior probability by demonstrating a robust effect on nondecision time, having implications for future theoretical and applied research.
How do task demands and aging affect lexical prediction during online reading of natural texts?
Authors: Andrews Sally , Veldre Aaron , Wong Roslyn , Yu Lili , Reichle Erik
Published: September 2022

Facilitated identification of predictable words during online reading has been attributed to the generation of predictions about upcoming words. But highly predictable words are relatively infrequent in natural texts, raising questions about the utility and ubiquity of anticipatory prediction strategies. This study investigated the contribution of task demands and aging to predictability effects for short natural texts from the Provo corpus. The eye movements of 49 undergraduate students (mean age 21.2) and 46 healthy older adults (mean age 70.8) were recorded while they read these passages in two conditions: (i) ‘reading for meaning’ to answer occasional comprehension questions; (ii) ‘proofreading’ to detect ‘transposed letter’ lexical errors (e.g., clam instead of calm) in intermixed filler passages. The results suggested that the young adults, but not the older adults, engaged anticipatory prediction strategies to detect semantic errors in the proofreading condition, but neither age group showed any evidence of costs of prediction failures. Rather, both groups showed facilitated reading times for unexpected words that appeared in a high constraint within-sentence position. These findings suggest that predictability effects for natural texts reflect partial, probabilistic expectancies rather than anticipatory prediction of specific words.
Social Ball: An immersive research paradigm to study social ostracism
Authors: Meral Erdem Ozan , Rosenbusch Hannes , Kip Anneloes , Ren Dongning , van Dijk Erik , van Beest Ilja
Published: September 2022

We introduce “Social Ball,” a new research paradigm to study ostracism via an online ball tossing game based on Cyberball (Williams & Jarvis, 2006) designed with both researchers and participants in mind. For researchers, the game incorporates a variety of features which are easily accessible from the software’s interface. Some of these features have already been studied with Cyberball (e.g., tossing different objects) but some are novel (e.g., end-game communication or hand-waving during the game). From the participants’ perspective, the game was designed to be more visually and socially immersive to create a more video-game- like online environment. We discuss two previous implementations. Study 1 showed that Social Ball successfully induced need threat and negative affect among ostracized (vs included) participants (n = 247). Study 2 empirically demonstrated how a new feature of the game (i.e., hand-waving) can be used to answer various questions. The results suggested that people waved their hands to varying degrees yet the frequency of which was not associated with post game need satisfaction (n = 2578). Besides describing the features of the game, we also provide a configuration manual and an annotated R code (both as online supplementary materials) to make the paradigm and associated analyses more accessible, and in turn, to stimulate further research. In our discussion, we elaborate on the various ways in which Social Ball can contribute to the understanding of belonging and ostracism.

Published: September 2022

BACKGROUND: There is unequivocal evidence showing that at hospital environment BP levels are usually different from measures found at other settings. Therefore, ambulatory BP is expected to be more dependable, as well as allow the identification of a relevant subgroup of white-coat hypertension patient.

METHODS: This was a single center descriptive cross-sectional study conducted to assess the prevalence of white-coat hypertension among 50 participants consisting of 31 males and 19 females referred for 24 hour Ambulatory BP monitoring in BPKIHS, Dharan, Nepal, between October 2021 to December 2021.

RESULTS: The prevalence of white-coat hypertension was 19 (32%) among 50 participants, while 31(62%) of them had sustained hypertension. Prevalence of WCHTN and sustained hypertension in young age ≤35 years was 4 (21.1%) and 10 (32.3%) respectively, similarly middle age 36-54 years was 13(68.4%) and 16(51.6%) and elderly ≥55 years was 2(10.5%) and 5(16.1%) respectively. Most participants were of middle age group 36-54 years’ age. While of sex distribution pattern of WCHTN and sustained hypertension, male was 11(57.9%) and 20 (64.5%) respectively and female was 8(36.8%) and 15(48.4%) respectively. The association between the demographic variables age, sex and BMI and white-coat HTN was not statistically significant.

CONCLUSION: The study showed that White-coat hypertension was more common in male patients and in middle age group 36-54 years, but was not statistically significant. Prevalence of white-coat hypertension was 19(38%). There was no significant association between white-coat hypertension and demographic variables.
Political Orientation of Middle Class in Naya Muluk
Authors: Lamsal Chakra Pani
Published: September 2022

The research is focused on the political position of the middle-class in the selected area of Banke and Bardiya district. The objective of the research is to explore the middle-class formation process, its position, and the political orientation with its connection to caste/ ethnicity. It adopts the structuralist theory and the relative class power model. It has followed the mixed method of research. This study adopted the gradational concepts of class and measured them based on the self-perceived notion. Documentary resources, questionnaire surveys, and telephone interviews are used for data collection. Diversification of profession and tertiary activities, bureaucracy, expansion of education and activities of NGO/ INGO, adoption of privatization, and inclusive representation are major factors in the formation of the middle class. Middle-class people like to be more active in civil society and social organizations than in a political party. It opens the door to a new gateway of research on the middle class and helps to promote common values and a roadmap without exploitation and repression of the ruling class. Despite the postmodern claim of the death or irrelevance of class, the class concept is still relevant as an analytical factor and more as a source of political power. The new middle classes are focused on governance, service delivery, and transformation in addition to social justice, inclusion, and empowerment.
People’s Participation in Local Governance of Besishahar Municipality of Lamjung District in Western Nepal
Authors: Dahal Girdhari
Published: September 2022

The key aim of this article is to look into the current state of people's participation and immersion in local governance of Besishahar Municipality of Lamjung district. Outlined by purposive non-probability judgmental sampling techniques, qualitative data saturation procedure was adopted so that to make valid understanding of local governance and fifteen sample respondents were ascertained. Elected officials, Mayor, Vice Mayor, intellectuals, and government officer, Ward members, intellectuals, and public workers were among the 15 respondents. Primary data was accumulated mainly through formal and informal field and telephonic interviews. The study findings deduced that people's lively participation in many areas of government and development activities at the local level has been progressive and encouraging. The legislature plays a significant role in Municipality assembly lawmaking and the executive body's primary responsibility is to provide day-to-day service delivery to the people at the local level. However, there are numerous problems and possibilities. They lack the necessary resources and budget for social and economic development. Amid tribulations, the number of elected representatives has made altogether seventy-one local laws. Local governments have 22 rights under the Nepalese constitution of 2015. At this juncture, they can start building capability at the grassroots level. The local government can help them develop their leadership skills. Broadly, amidst shortcomings, prospects and challenges, this Municipality's innovative works in social, political, and economic development through infrastructural operations are commendable.

This research aimed to extract lignin from rice straw and reveal the pH value of diluted acid at which the most effective yield of lignin was precipitated. In this study, rice straw obtained from local fields in the An Giang province of Vietnam and sodium hydroxide 2 M was employed to extract lignin from rice straw. Hydrochloric acid was used to adjust the sample pH values to be in the range of 1.5-3.5. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis was used to characterize the functional groups of the lignin materials. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) analysis was employed to supply information on the thermal decomposition of the lignin samples. Herein, the results showed that lignin precipitated at different pH values affected its thermal properties. At 700oC, the yield of the remaining lignin components were 56% at pH 2.0, but the weight loss of lignin samples precipitated at pH 3.5 dropped to 85% because many non-lignin substances existed in the samples. The yield of the crude lignin samples obtained were 16.51, 17.66, 15.27, 14.33 and 13.26% for pH of 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 and 3.5 respectively. The crystallite regions played an important role in the lignin structures. The spectrum peaks at pH 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 were broader than the peaks at pH 3.0 and 3.5. The results demonstrated the highest percentage of lignin precipitate was collected at pH 2.0.

The objective of this work was to study the effects of different plasticisers [glycerol (G), propylene glycol (PG), polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG 400)] at different contents (10-30% compared to hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC)) on the properties of HPMC/shellac composite films. Sensory, mechanical properties, and surface morphology were used to evaluate changes in the composite films by adding different plasticisers. The results showed that with the addition of plasticisers, the films became more transparent and flexible. As the plasticiser content increased, the tensile strength and elastic modulus of the films decreased. At a plasticiser content of 20%, the water vapor permeability (WVP) of the composite films reached its minimum value. The SEM images showed that the HPMC/shellac composite film containing 20% G had the smoothest surface, and the components of this film were uniformly distributed.

In this study, the energy storage properties of relaxor Pb0.92La0.08(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 (PLZT) thin films grown on Pt/Si substrates using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) and sol-gel methods were investigated. The PLZT thin films deposited by PLD possessed a columnar growth microstructure and mixed orientations of (100) and (110) while a dense microstructure and preferred orientation of (100) were achieved by sol-gel deposition. Although the electric breakdown strength (EBD) of the sol-gel-deposited PLZT thin films (EBD=2200 kV/cm) was slightly higher than that of the films deposited using PLD (EBD=2100 kV/cm), the PLD-deposited PLZT thin films had a larger recoverable energy storage density (Ureco) and energy storage efficiency (η), which can be explained by its slimmer polarization loop, higher maximum polarization, and lower remanent polarization. At corresponding EBD values, the Ureco and η values were 33.2 J/cm3 and 67.5% for the PLD-deposited films and 27.5 J/cm3 and 62.2% for the sol-gel-deposited films. Although the sol-gel-deposited PLZT thin films had lower energy storage performance, the sol-gel method remains a promising method for the fabrication of thin films for dielectric energy storage applications due to its unique advantages of low fabrication cost, simple preparation process, and easy control of chemical composition.

Used lead-acid battery recycling activities in Minh Khai handicraft village, Chi Dao commune, Van Lam district, Hung Yen province, Vietnam has markedly increased the lead (Pb) content in paddy soil. Reducing the mobility of lead and lead accumulation in rice plants/plain rice are major priorities to reduce the impacts of lead in paddy soil. Application of the minerals zeolite (4A and Faujasite) and bentonite (natural and modified) to lead-contaminated soil has been carried out in lab scale for three years. The results showed the efficiencies in reducing accumulated lead in rice were 58 and 56% after adding the artificial additives zeolite 4A and zeolite Faujasite, respectively. These results were better than those of modified bentonite and natural bentonite, which were only 44 and 24%, respectively. The control efficiency of Pb accumulated in rice plants between the supplemented samples of zeolite Faujasite, zeolite 4A, modified bentonite, and natural bentonite were 69, 56, 42, and 40%, respectively, compared with the control samples. The addition of minerals to the soils has also resulted in decreases of the growth and yield of the experimental rice plants compared with the control samples. In this research, 0.1 to 0.2% of zeolite Faujasite showed the best results in terms of reducing Pb content in soil as well as low effect on plant growth. This research opens up on-site pollution control solutions for lead-contaminated agricultural soils.

The determination of Labuan Bajo as a National Tourism Strategic Area makes it one of the premium tourist areas in Indonesia. Tourism development in its implementation found various obstacles and problems. We carry out community service programs in Labuan Bajo, to find out the problems and obstacles to tourism development. Our method is to conduct interviews and observe tourism locations. And we see the government's response and the community's response in an effort to maximize tourism potential in Labuan Bajo. We provide education and training regarding the utilization of tourism potential so that it has an impact and economic value. Second, we take action to clean up tourist sites and provide an understanding of how to manage waste in 3Rs (Reuse, Reduce, Recycle). The results we found, the community is still less involved in participation in tourism development, the government is still not optimal in policy regulation and utilization of tourism potential, and the biggest tourism problem occurs in poor tourism waste management.
ДОСВІД ОПРАЦЮВАННЯ НАЯВНИХ ПЛАТФОРМ ДЛЯ РЕАЛІЗАЦІЇ SMART-КОМПЛЕКСІВ ПІД ЧАС ПІДГОТОВКИ МАЙБУТНІХ УЧИТЕЛІВ ТРУДОВОГО НАВЧАННЯ ТА ТЕХНОЛОГІЙ

Ефективність впровадження SMART-комплексів суттєво залежить від використовуваного програмного забезпечення, за допомогою якого він функціонує. Функції та характеристики SMАRT-комплексу мають слугувати забезпеченню максимально можливої ефективності під час взаємодії здобувача вищої освіти та викладача в межах освітнього процесу закладу вищої освіти. Складне у використанні програмне забезпечення не тільки погіршує сприйняття здобувачами навчального матеріалу, а й формує у них негативне ставлення до застосування інформаційних технологій в освітній діяльності. Важливим є оптимальний добір платформи для створення SMART-комплексів при підготовці майбутніх учителів трудового навчання та технологій.

У статті проаналізовано роботи відомих науковців за проблематикою опрацювання наявних платформ для реалізації SMART-комплексів під час підготовки майбутніх учителів трудового навчання. Виявлено класифікацію та вимоги, які висуваються до платформ для реалізації SMART-комплексів. Визначено принцип побудови SMART-комплексу за модульним підходом на освітній платформі. Розглянуті основні функціональні можливості популярних систем управління навчання, на основі чого побудовано порівняльну таблицю сучасних зарубіжних та вітчизняних платформ для створення SMART-комплексів.

Під час опрацювання та добору необхідної платформи для реалізації SMART-комплексу у процесі підготовки майбутніх учителів трудового навчання та технологій варто враховувати технічні можливості, функції самої системи та специфіку підготовки майбутніх учителів трудового навчання та технологій у закладах освіти.

Проведений нами аналіз дозволяє стверджувати, що оптимальною платформою для реалізації SMART-комплексу є платформа Moodle. Проте подальші наукові пошуки спрямовують на пошук альтернативних можливостей для реалізації SMART-комплексів, адже в таких системах як Moodle, доступ до ресурсу є обмеженим.
ПРОФЕСІЙНЕ СТАНОВЛЕННЯ МАЙБУТНЬОГО КЕРІВНИКА ВОКАЛЬНОГО АНСАМБЛЮ В УМОВАХ МУЗИЧНО-ПЕДАГОГІЧНОЇ ОСВІТИ
Authors: Савченко-Шлапак Ю. О.
Published: September 2022

У сучасній вітчизняній музичній культурі залишається актуальною традиція вокального ансамблевого виконавства, яка особливо підтримується останніми роками засобами масової інформації і позитивно впливає на музичне виховання молоді. Заняття студентів у вокальному ансамблі сприяють розширенню музичної культури молодих людей, розвитку їхніх музичних здібностей (мелодійного, ритмічного, тембрового, гармонійного слуху; вокального голосу; музичності в цілому), а також виховують сценічну культуру, художній смак, творчу ініціативу і самостійність.

У статті визначаються критерії якості підготовки майбутнього фахівця для ефективної реалізації його практичної діяльності як керівника дитячо-юнацького вокального колективу. Зростає потреба в розробці нових концептуальних підходів до професійно-педагогічного трактування майбутнього керівника вокального ансамблю як творчої особистості, які є визначальними в розвитку характеру навчання.

Метою статті є теоретичне обґрунтування проблеми професійного становлення та критеріїв підготовки майбутнього керівника вокального ансамблю в умовах музично-педагогічної освіти. Встановлено, що організація та функціонування вокального ансамблю буде ефективними, якщо: буде розкрита специфіка та основні етапи організації вокального ансамблю; у процесі розвитку виконавської майстерності учасників будуть виявлені та реалізовані можливості організації вокального ансамблю; індивідуальні та колективні форми організації занять вокального ансамблю будуть спрямовані на розвиток виконавської майстерності кожного учасника та всього колективу в цілому; організація репетиційної роботи та звітні виступи сприятимуть досягненню наміченої мети у розвитку виконавської майстерності учасників вокального ансамблю; реалізація індивідуального підходу до виховання музичних потреб та здібностей сприятиме ефективному розвитку виконавської майстерності студентів.

Розглянуто особливості музично-педагогічної освіти, фахову підготовку виконавців і вчителів музичного мистецтва на основі компетентнісного підходу, що передбачає всебічний розвиток особистості студента, поглиблення загальної музичної підготовки, засвоєння знань з вокально-хорової культури (теорії, вокально-хорового репертуару, виконавського досвіду); набуття виконавських навичок вокаліста, хормейстера, а також підготовку до педагогічної діяльності. Наголошено на необхідності оптимізувати хормейстерську складову в підготовці майбутніх вокалістів, учителів музичного мистецтва шляхом не лише урізноманітнення навчального і виконавського репертуару, а й засвоєння методика роботи над вокальним твором. Обґрунтовано методику роботи в класі з хорового диригування (на основі аналізу хору С. Людкевича “Сонце заходить”), завдяки якій майбутніми вчителями музичного мистецтва набувають фахових компетентностей. Застосовано метод аналізу, його специфічні різновиди — музично-теоретичний вокально-хоровий, виконавський. Наголошено на необхідності під час опрацювання хорового твору відтворити взаємодію двох протилежних за характером мелодичних ліній, зумовлених переживаннями ліричного героя — замилування красою рідного краю і глибока туга за ним на чужині. Проаналізовано форму, фактуру, ритм кожної частини хору, відзначені особливості звуковедення тощо, а також висловлені рекомендації щодо хормейстерських прийомів їх опрацювання і виконання. Фахова підготовка вокалістів-виконавців, вчителів музичного мистецтва на основі компетентнісного підходу має комплексний характер і передбачає формування у них здатності до вокально-хорової і музично-педагогічної діяльності.

Authors: Daniluk Dawid
Published: September 2022

Cel niniejszego artykułu stanowi przedstawienie konstytucyjnych rozwiązań ustrojowych Gibraltaru. Gibraltar jest terytorium zamorskim Wielkiej Brytanii. Nie mniej jednak należy zwrócić uwagę, że w Konstytucji Gibraltaru z 2006 r. zagwarantowano jego ludności samorządność, zgodną z brytyjskim zwierzchnictwem nad Gibraltarem. Z tego względu warto poddać analizie sposób sprawowania władzy w Gibraltarze, w szczególności pozycję ustrojową Gubernatora, jednoizbowego zgromadzenia ustawodawczego (Parlamentu Gibraltaru), rządu oraz sądów, aby zbadać poziom samorządności tego brytyjskiego terytorium zamorskiego.
