German Language Teaching in a Multicultural Class in Greece: A Case Study about Students’ and Parents’ Perceptions of Plurilingualism
Authors: Liakou Charikleia
Published: August 2023

After many decades of research, publications, and exchange of good practices, the debate about intercultural pedagogy, the importance of bilingual education and the promotion of existing multiculturalism in school classes remains topical in the public educational system in Greece. My ongoing research interest focuses on the inclusive education of students with migrant backgrounds, taking into account the foreign language lessons in public education in Greece, specifically the teaching of German as a second foreign language. The empirical part of the study took place in a public primary school in a Province of the city of Karditsa during the school year 2021/2022. A class of 18 students of the 6th Grade, where 7 of them were bilingual/multilingual with a migrant background, was under research during the second and third trimester in the German language lesson. The research work is based on the methodology of the Functional-Pragmatics language theory by Ehlich and Rehbein. The data analysis is in progress; however, questionnaires were given to all participant students, and interviews were conducted with all bilinguals parents.
Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) Games: Improving Negative Atmosphere with Social Robots and AI Teammates
Authors: Wang Yimin , Dai Yonglin , Chen Shaokang , Wang Lingxin , Hoorn Johan F.
Published: August 2023

Electronic sports show significant user churn caused by a toxic gaming atmosphere, and current GUI-based interventions are insufficient to address the issue. Based on the theoretical framework of Perceiving and Experiencing Fictional Characters, a new hybrid interaction interface and paradigm combined with tangibles is proposed to counter negative mood. To support the frustrated users of Massive Online Battle Arena (MOBA) games, we added AI teammates for better personal performance and social robots for the disclosure of negative mood. We hypothesized that AI teammates’ invisibility and anonymity would mitigate negative emotions; an effect amplified by the presence of social robots. A comparative experiment was conducted with 111 participants. Social robots for emotion-oriented coping improved user mood but AI teammates for problem-oriented coping did so better, although their higher levels of experienced anonymity may not have been preferred. Unexpectedly, conversing with a robot after playing with an AI teammate brought the mood back to that experienced when talking to a robot alone, while increasing the distancing tendencies. With this in mind, AI and social robots can counter the negative atmosphere in MOBA games, positively contributing to game design and empathic human–computer interaction.

A difficult life situation is a situation that means the experiences of people who find themselves in circumstances that seriously affect their well-being, the safety of life, and from which they are not always able to get out on their own. Children who find themselves in a difficult life situation are especially in need of help. The paper identifies the most significant factors affecting family well-being, as a result of which children may have a difficult life situation: poor financial conditions in the family, loss of connection with the labor market, intra-family conflicts, an unfavorable psychological atmosphere in the family, cruel treatment in the family, etc. The essence of social therapy as a specific technology of social work is that it is based on the idea of «treatment», i.e. achieving the highest possible level of human social health, primarily the normal functioning and adaptation of persons with physical and psychological pathology. Social therapy includes various methods aimed at achieving social well-being by family members, including children. It can be group and individual one. Examples of social therapy methods are bibliotherapy, fairy tale therapy, music therapy, occupational therapy, cinema therapy, sandplay therapy, etc.
The Reconstruction of the Creation of the Holy Crown
Authors: Barabássy Miklós
Published: August 2023

Determining the place and time of an artefact’s origination starts with archaeometry surveys. The aim of the study of the Holy Crown is to characterise in detail the parts of the crown – the frame, the filigree and the sockets, i.e. the metal parts – and the decorations (enamel, gemstones, beads), to determine the exact composition of the materials and to discover the place of origin. Archaeometry also includes the reconstruction of the technical and technological processes associated with artefacts. The absolute age of the artefacts can be determined using organic materials such as adhesives. This is basically a natural science. If we include the auxiliary sciences - photo-optical data recording, 3D modelling, which allows us to continue the study on the computer – it is possible to determine the relative date and place of the crown parts, using parallels with applied art, palaeography, etc. To date, no systematic archaeometry study has been carried out on the Holy Crown. There have been photographs, geometric measurements, visual inspections and descriptions by jewellers and engineers. If we want to write a scientific summary, we have a lot to draw on. The present article is such a summary, in which we attempt to reconstruct the technology of the Holy Crown, with the aim of pointing out the need for a complete archaeometry study.
SEASONAL RHYTHMS OF PLANT DEVELOPMENT OF GLEBIONIS CORONARIA (L.) CASS. EX SPACH. IN THE CENTRAL POLISSIA AREA OF UKRAINE
Authors: Ivashchenko I. , Rakhmetov D. , Kotyuk L.
Published: August 2023

The aim of our research was to study seasonal rhythms of development of Glebionis coronaria (L.) Cass. ex Spach. (garland chrysanthemum) introduced in the Central Polissia area of Ukraine, depending on abiotic conditions of the plant environment. The study of phenology of introduced plants was carried out from 2013 till 2017 in the Botanical Garden of Polissia National University. We calculated the effective heat sum above 5°C, required for a certain phase of development and for the plants life cycle in general. It was established that under conditions of Central Polissia in Ukraine during the period of 2013–2017 G. coronaria vegetated for 102–132 days at the effective heat sum of 1471.4–1780.3°C. Seedlings appeared between late April and early May at a rather wide range of effective heat sums, i.e. from 131.4°C to 195.2°C. The vegetative phase lasted 35–41 days, until early June. The budding phase began in early June at the effective heat sum of 351.5–502°C and lasted until late June, i.e. for 20–24 days. The beginning of the flowering phase was recorded between mid and late June with a wide range of the effective heat sums of 527°C–755.3°C. The duration of the phase varied significantly over the years of research: from 41 to 60 days. The fruiting phase occurred in late June – mid July at the effective heat sum of 780,5–1074,2оС і and lasted from 28 to 52 days. The phase of fading began in late July – mid August at the effective heat sum of 1116.5°C–1464.2°C. Vegetation ended between early August and early September. The timings of phenological phases that reflect seasonal development depend largely on temperature and water supply. The biological needs of the introduced plants for the growing season duration and thermal regime fully correspond to the natural conditions of the Central Polissia area of Ukraine, which confirms that cultivation of G. coronaria in this region is highly promising.

Authors: Malinoshevska M. , Shydlovska O.
Published: August 2023

The study of nanoparticles is currently an area of intense scientific interest due to a wide range of application possibilities in medical and biological fields. Therefore, national initiatives in the field of nanotechnology and nanoparticle research receive broad government support in many countries of the world. Nanoparticle synthesis methods are simple and can be carried out without special laboratory equipment. The very fact of the simplicity of the synthesis process from the technical side makes the synthesis and use of nanoparticles in medicine, biotechnology and other fields of human activity extremely attractive. Silver nanoparticles have a pronounced antibacterial effect against a wide range of bacterial pathogens. The antioxidant properties of cerium nanoparticles are described, which provide the prospect of their use in the therapy of tumor and viral diseases. That is why the purpose of the work is to analyze and compare possible methods of synthesis of silver and cerium nanoparticles and to single out the most promising method. The analysis of the known methods of synthesis of silver and cerium nanoparticles, as well as a comparison of their advantages and disadvantages, allowed us to conclude that the biological synthesis of nanoparticles is the most promising, in particular with the use of plant extracts. An important feature of the biological method of synthesis of nanoparticles is the absence of toxic reducing agents and the complex multi-stage process in comparison with the chemical method of synthesis. Moreover, the biological method of synthesis allows obtaining nanoparticles of a certain size and shape in a wide range of values, while the physical method is very limited. Regulation of the size and shape of nanoparticles obtained by biological synthesis is provided by a simple change of the synthesis conditions, namely the pH value, acidity, concentration of the corresponding metal salt, etc. Green synthesis is a safe ecological and cost-effective method of synthesis of silver and cerium nanoparticles.
ANALYSIS OF THE PROBLEM INVASIVE SPECIES OF H. SOSNOWSKYI MANDEN., POSSIBLE WAYS OF REGULATING THE DISTRIBUTION AND METHODS OF CONTROL
Authors: Kalynchuk B.
Published: August 2023

The article analyzes the research of scientists from different countries and strategies to combat the invasive species H.sosnowskyi Manden. Invasive species cause numerous damage to the economy, agriculture, some are a threat to human health. H.sosnowskyi is a strong competitor for nutrients, suppressing native species, and disrupts successional processes. The most common control methods are mowing, herbicides, grazing, cutting buds and digging. All these methods are expensive enough and not always effective, so scientists have begun to consider alternative methods of control. One of the promising areas under consideration is the extraction of biobutanol. Plant lignin can be used to make medicines; pectin can be used in the food industry. Control measures in Ukraine need to be implemented as soon as possible, as there is a risk of uncontrolled spread of this species, especially near housing estates and settlements. It is important to choose the right strategy of struggle, based on the experience of neighboring countries. To draw the attention of businessmen to the possible use of the plant in industry. Changes in legislation, implementation of monitoring programs will help stop the spread of invasive plant.
CULTURAL APPROPRIATENESS OF IVAN ZIAZIUN’S “PEDAGOGY OF GOODNESS”
Authors: Filipchuk H. , Filipchuk N.
Published: August 2023

The article summarizes the ideas of the doctor of philosophy, professor, academician of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, long-term director of the Institute of Pedagogy and Psychology of Professional Education (now Ivan Ziaziun Institute of Pedagogical Education and Adult Education of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine) Ivan Andriiovych Ziaziun. The scientist was and remains one of the few representatives of the academic pedagogical elite who professed the “philosophy of the heart” in the education of a person, a people, and a nation, realizing himself and conveying to others the importance of the principles of nationality and citizenship. It has been proven that Ziaziun’s worldviews, evaluations, and conclusions were clearly consistent with the ideas of famous Ukrainian teachers and educators H. Skovoroda, P. Yurkevych, B. Hrinchenko, H. Vashchenko, S. Rusova, V. Sukhomlynskyi, K. Ushynskyi.

Attention is focused on the fact that according to I. A. Ziaziun’s conviction, a pedagogue, teacher, and enlightener is the main subject of civilizational progress, able to unite and educate the people in the image of a full-blooded nation, which contains in its structure not only good “those who sow buckwheat”, but above all wise spiritual leaders and courageous warriors. That is why the afterword of his boo-confession “Pedagogy of Goodness” contains his emotional address, in which he especially singles out the Teacher’s mission.

It has been found that I. A. Ziaziun’s understanding of the modern school essence, the significance of “learning well” value is unthinkable without quality pedagogical work of the mind and heart. That is why he professed Skovoroda’s "Philosophy of the Heart". It is a product of Ukrainian intellectual thought, in psycho-pedagogical theory and practice, and his creative life. Honor to the Mother, the son’s duty, national shrines, Ukraine, universal human values and ideals, a moral example in upbringing, civic position, and rank were ethical measures of personality for Ziaziun. Therefore, he was always a supporter of returning to education a sense of honor, and national and human dignity in his society, and at the level of interstate relations, he taught not to serve other countries and peoples like a serf.

Authors: Lavrysh I.
Published: August 2023

The initial hypothesis of this article is to determine the educational and upbringing functions of children's musical theatre in the conditions of inclusive education as a triad: supervisor-director, participants-performers, and parent audience. Each of these links in the triad creates an expressive subsystem, and its comprehensive complex is subordinated to the sphere of the educational-artistic context of the emergence and implementation of both literary and musical creative concepts since the multifaceted problem of synthesizing arts has been and remains an actual problem of scientific research. A detailed description of the musical sound palette confirmed the validity of our research regarding the objective realization of musical works in performance as a procedural process in the formation of art images of sounds and words, the diversity of their perception of meaning by performers, which is an extraordinary factor in the formation of stage images in a play involving children and adolescents with special needs. Taking this into account, the director should rely on his entire previous background, worldview, general cultural, aesthetic, and pedagogical experience to develop the creative activity of children through theatrical activities, considering their psychological and physical peculiarities.

The purpose of the article is to actualize the role of children's musical theatre as a genre-forming extracurricular institution in the conditions of inclusive education, to determine its educational and upbringing functions, to study the peculiarities of stage action in the artistic reproduction of images, to reveal the significance of the musical palette as an expression of the artistic idea for creating a creative atmosphere of the performance based on artistic-pedagogical experience, and to determine the cognitive needs of children and adolescents with special developmental needs through theatrical activity.
The Embodiment of Meaning and the Meaning of Embodiment
Authors: Alter Joseph
Published: August 2023

Drawing on the example of kuśtī-pahalvānī (traditional wrestling in India) to engage with arguments presented in each of the chapters that have come before, this “Afterword” engages with the problem of how meaning is assigned to physical practices and to the body engaged in various forms of self-development and self-discipline. An analytical perspective based on semiotic theory is used to examine the problem of embodied meaning as well as methodological questions about how to compare various forms of physical practice. Emphasis is placed on the contingency of meaning and on the social construction of knowledge, as the social construction of knowledge provides a framework for understanding the intellectual significance of both transcendental consciousness and physical fitness.

Cremation in Elamite period (Sukkalmah): Hirbodan site
Authors: YEGANEH Sepideh Jamshidi
Published: August 2023

Every region and period have its own characteristics when it comes to burial, which is considered a part of spiritual and material culture. Since burial practices are influenced by society's thoughts, beliefs, and culture, studying them can help reconstruct the evolution of ancient culture. Large parts of Iran were considered the territory of the Elamite civilisation from about 2700 BCE until the beginning of the Achaemenid empire. While various studies have been conducted on the cultural materials of this period, burial methods, especially in the old Elamite period, remain unknown. The evidence of cremation is one of unique features that could be observed among burying ritual in each society. Based on the findings, this article describes the evidence for cremation in the Old Elamite period in south of Iran. In Hirbodan, a burial was buried in a crouching position and burned with wood sticks. It can be concluded from the burn marks on the skeleton and the soil beneath the body, that the body had been burned inside the grave before being covered in soil. This burial is associated with the period of old Elamite and with the reign of the Sukkalmah dynasty based on the analysis of pottery and C14 results.

Authors: KHONSARINEJAD Ehsan , RIAHIYAN GOHORTI Reza , TAVAKOLI Sahar
Published: August 2023

In this paper, the authors have examined 94 unprovenanced arrowheads (tanged and socketed) that are stored in the cultural historical property repository of the Administration of Cultural Heritage of Kerman Province (Southeastern Iran). The illlegal possessors claimed to have discovered the arrowheads via illegal diggings in the Kerman Province. Most of the examined arrowheads were probably designed for warfare and are comparable to findings within current borders of Iran or its vicinity. Most of the tanged arrowheads probably date to the Iron Age of Iran (1450-550 B.C.). Most of the trilobate arrowheads can be compared to the findings of Achaemenid sites or resemble items that have been excavated from layers associated with the Achaemenids. Some of the Bronze Age arrowheads, however, could not be compared with any items that have been recovered from Iran or its neighboring regions.

Authors: Irman Mimelientesa , Hayati Restu , Agia Lintang Nur
Published: August 2023

This study aims to analyze determinants of audit delay in banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI). The analytical tool used is multiple linear regression models in 37 Indonesian banking companies from 2016 to 2018. Return on Asset, Debt to Asset Ratio, Auditor’s Opinion, and Firm Age are used as determinants of auditor delay. The result of the analysis shows that what affects audit delay in Indonesian banking is not based on the level of debt ratios or auditor opinion, but rather the level of profitability and company age A high level of profitability is good news that management wants to convey to stakeholders through the publication of financial audit reports that the company wants to convey quickly. The negative and significant effect between company age on audit delay shows that a company that has long been established and has experience and has better internal control management so that it can easily provide data for audience needs. Long established banks tend to have a large scale so that they have higher power and access to auditing firms to complete audits in a predetermined time.
