The cooperation between family and school in cooperative education of children and youth in the Second Polish Republic (1918-1939)
Authors: Magiera Elżbieta
Published: February 2024

Pedagogical journalism and literature of the interwar period emphasised
importance of the cooperation between family and school with respect to cooperative
education of school-age children and youth. Cooperative education started usually in
family through the formation of reason, will and emotions. Family home constituted
a basic level of education and could repeatedly stimulate cooperative interests. Common work of the family at family farm or in craft or cottage industry business became
the first school of cooperation and joint-action on which cooperative activity was based.
Family home played a supporting part in the development of student cooperative. The
acceptance of parents and their recognition, and sometimes their involvement in the
work of student cooperation, were a form of encouragement for students and teachers
for further activity of the cooperative. At the same time, student cooperative – in
particular in rural areas – was a medium stimulating the parents of these students and the
environment to cooperatistic actions. The social life of school was guided by the
principle of convergence, i.e. its interpenetration and complementation by the family
home and environment life. The idea of cooperation in the interwar educational system
being accomplished in practice by means of student cooperatives had the possibilities of
playing a very big part. This was determined by its broad application in educational
activity of the Polish school as well as its understanding and acceptance by the family
and environment.
Important part was played by the tutor of student cooperative. His / her duty was to
tighten the cooperation between student cooperative and family home which, on the one
hand, ensured the understanding of teacher's actions and, on the other hand, provided
material and moral assistance for the cooperative. At the same time, teacher – through
student cooperative – could influence socially and educationally the family and
environment, showing the benefits yielding from mutual cooperative work based on
joint-action.
Common initiatives of teachers, school and the family environment in the Warmia and Mazury regions (1945-1956)
Authors: Radziszewska Maria
Published: February 2024

The article deals with the issue of teachers and school cooperation with parents (teacher-school-parent cooperation) in the Warmia and Mazury regions between the years 1945-56. In view of a specific situation of Polish education in the region, the cooperation took different forms. The contact between teachers and parents was limited to initiating educational, caring and charity tasks. Parents could be actively involved in the interpretation and fulfilment of the school needs thanks to parents' auspices, and from 1949 thanks to parental and caring committees founded to realize the Stalinian concept of upbringing.
The Pfenomenon of a Burgher Family in the Early Modern Period
Authors: Marećkova Marie
Published: February 2024

The function of a burgher family passed through changes depending upon historical conditions and power relations. Every family member had its social role within the family framework. Family members followed stabilised pattern of behaviour influenced by personal motivation. In the era of the early modem period the original forms of social life of the burghers passed through weakening and a polarisation of the male and female role was strengthening. That was the beginning of a gradual division process of home and public sphere leading to a formation of a burgher model of traditional roles of husband and wife. These changes were being reflected in gradual transferring of productive eaming activities from the home sphere to the public sphere. In the pre-industrial phase of early modem period the burgher women, particularly those that took part in productive and economic entrepreneurial activities with their husbands, were relatively more independent and free than the women in industrial period when the role of women was understood as a guardian of the family hearth. With the modernisation and democratisation of the society a burgher model of a good wife and a polarisation of both genders were gradually pushing ahead. The dependence of the wife on the husband was not economic only. The wife had to subordinate her life plans to the career of her husband in public sphere and concentrate to the home sphere.
Upbringing a child in a nobility family in the XVI and XVII century
Authors: Kahl Edyta
Published: February 2024

The issues of education and upbringing in nobility families in the context of XVI and XVII century society, culture, education models and family traditions are discussed in the article. Selected models of everyday activities and games as well as methods of influence as employed by the teachers and guardians to foster the physical, moral, intellectual and social development of children are examined. Roles of the father and the mother as well as other relatives and teachers are described. The discussion of practices is supplemented by an analysis of the views on family education as held by the scholars of pedagogy during Restoration. These opinions contain guidelines regarding e.g. proper hygiene and diet, morality and virtues as well as the influence of the guardians on the child. By pinpointing various short comings of the process of education within nobility families the guidelines and suggestions provide for the enrichment of the picture of education and upbringing in those times.
The models of upbringing of children and youth as agents of cultural integration in the lives of Polish landowners during the Partitions of Poland
Authors: Bołdyrew Aneta
Published: February 2024

One of the most important tasks of a typical Polish gentry family by the end of the XIX-th century and at the beginning of the XX-th century was to hand down to younger generations patriotic values. To assure the continuity of the nation and to have the guarantee of the future freedom became sine qua non condition. It also became one of the main values of the gentry ethos. Gentry accepted the role of depositary of Polish nationality. The defeat of the November Uprising and the reprisals of the partitioning powers led to the radicalisation of attitudes, and of crucial importance became a principle to conflate the national cause with religion, which in tum led to crystallisation of the term „patriotic religion” whose upholder and priest became a woman - „Mother Pole”. Within the whole epoch the education of children was significant. In order to save them from the indoctrination they were taught national history, tradition and literature at home which stood in the opposition to the teaching officially practiced at school. The further evolution of the model was influenced greatly by the defeat of the January Uprising and the political and socio-economic transformations in the wake of it. The basis of a modem society was to be its young generation. It was their mother who were supposed to look after their health, bringing-up and education, and the postulates to improve the quality of parental care became one of the elements of „organie labour”. The new reality of life made it necessary by the end of the XIX-th century to reinterpret the idea of patriotic upbringing which was integrated with moral and hygienic education. In spite of numerous differences conceming the upbringing one can point to many common pattems of education of young generation. The models were not dependent on territorial, political or mental divisions which created so called “awareness of being one social body”. Family and social gatherings facilitated the process of unity above the borders of occupation. Many families paid attention to systematic contacts with other
families both personal and in written form. There were also popular visits at families’ and trips to places of cultural importance. Growing up children travelled between the occupied territories which was an important element of socializing and patriotic education which, on the other hand, was protection against assimilation with the culture of the occupant.
Values transferred and cherished by mothers in the rural families in the Polish Second Republic
Authors: Józefowicz Anna
Published: February 2024

In the Polish Second Republic, so in the country reborn after one hundred twenty three years of captivity, the role of a woman as a woman-mother, was significantly emphasized. Press, literature, researchers have proved that safety and order in the whole country depend on safety and order in individual families. The key notion became: „from education of a mother to education of a child”. While analyzing sources such as newspapers, magazines, diaries, guidebooks, I noticed the following values for which mothers in rural families were held to be responsible:
1. value of work connected with obligation in farm and household, so role of mother as a housewife;
2.the value of the family as a community and the mother's role in it. Mother was the first protector, tutor, patron of a child. Mother took care of child and other members in the family, she helped them, she guaranteed the positive atmosphere at home, took care of safety in a wide context. It was significant that mother appealed in the process of socialization to common traditions and experiences;
3.value of education and social consciousness, so the role of the mother in shaping social consciousness;
4.patriotic value, so the role of the mother in shaping patriotic attitude.

The role of culture and tradition in education and upbringing in polish families at the tum of the XX century in the Kresy region (as exemplified by the Jędrzejewicz family)
Authors: Stelmasiak Izabela
Published: February 2024

At the tum of the XX century Poland did not exist as an independent State. Poles, especially those living under German and Russian occupation, were subjects to aggressive nationalist policies. By promoting tradition, culture and religion through education the Polish families of the Kresy region played a great role in preserving Polish national identity and faith in regaining independence. The education and upbringing Janusz Jędrzejewicz, a great reformer of education and prime minister of the Second Republic, the son Eleonora and Czesław, may serve as an example. Growing up among patriotic tales of heroic fights for freedom and independence, extensive reading, diverse education and observing of traditional holidays allowed Janusz Jędrzejewicz to become a great patriot and achiever.

Published: February 2024

This descriptive quantitative research is a scientific inquiry which aimed to determine the level of Impact of Project BANAS Materials (a collective name of the competency-based division-initiated print and non-print resources in Social Studies) in relation to academic performance of learners. This study was conducted in the seven (7) elementary schools of District VII, Division of Bacolod City during the School Year 2022-2023. Researcher-made questionnaire used in this study was validated by three (3) experts. It has undergone reliability testing with thirty (30) respondents at Andres Bonifacio Elementary School I. Data were collected during the Second Quarter of the School Year from three hundred eighty-three (383) learners in Grades 1 to 5. Highlight of this study examined and analyzed the level of Impact of BANAS materials in terms of these four (4) areas namely: Alignment of Content, Quality of Material, Applicability, and Ease of Use. Findings showed that BANAS Materials in terms of these four (4) areas have a very high impact regardless of sex, grade level, school, and average family monthly income. Based on these findings, BANAS Materials is highly recommended to be utilized by Social Studies teachers and learners as supplementary reading and teaching materials respectively. Results further reveal that there is a need to conduct division training-workshops in the development and quality assurance of additional BANAS Materials focused on competencies not covered in the BANAS Outputs developed in the previous years. Conduct of SOK-SAY-LYMPICS Series: BANAS Quizzes, ATBP is highly recommended as sustainable initiatives aligned on Assessment and Monitoring Key Result Areas. Through Policy Recommendation, the long-term goal of this research is the Institutionalization of BANAS Learning Hub in 46 Elementary Schools in the Division of Bacolod City. Not only regular learners are the target direct beneficiaries of BANAS Print and Non-Print Materials but also Madrasah Education Program (MEP) and Special Needs Education (SNED) learners. Sustainability and successful implementation of this research-cum-innovation needs the collaboration between and among school leaders and DepEd Officials to truly realize the end goals on the need to address scarcity of localized resources, improve reading literacy across disciplines through in-depth love for one’s unique and distinct local heritage. Sequel researches are also highly recommended to done by future teacher-researchers.
Navigating Undelimited Waters: States’ Rights and Obligations in Addressing Maritime Disputes, with a Focus on the East Sea
Authors: Toan Thang Dr. Nguyen
Published: February 2024

The phenomenon of coastal States pushing their boundaries further into the sea has resulted in the enlargement of maritime territories. Consequently, that has given rise to conflicts regarding the assertion of sovereignty and sovereign rights over overlapping maritime areas among these coastal States. As States intensify the extraction of resources from the waters, these already intricate disputes become further complicated. In the East Sea, most ASEAN countries, including Vietnam, still have unresolved maritime disputes with their neighboring nations. The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) outlines obligations for concerned states, particularly in Articles 74(3) and 83(3). These include the duty to exert every effort to establish interim arrangements of a practical nature and to refrain from actions that could impede or obstruct the eventual attainment of a final agreement. However, the UNCLOS does not have a specific explanation for the above obligations, leading to the incomplete resolution of conflicts between States in the overlapping maritime areas, mainly when a State unilaterally undertakes law enforcement activities in the above maritime areas. The article aims to elucidate the overlapping maritime areas in the context of the East Sea, thereby analyzing and exploring the rights and responsibilities of coastal States in resolving disputes in undelimited maritime areas. Examining the legal frameworks, maritime territorial claims, and mechanisms for dispute resolution becomes imperative in understanding the complexities of this region.
Resursele de pe Internet ca ajutor în predarea la distanţă a limbii române ca limbă străină
Authors:   Universitatea de Stat din Sankt Petersburg, Federaţia Rusă, Kubasova Anna
Published: February 2024

Based on my own pedagogical experience, I believe that in-person, face-to-face classes at university level cannot be fully replaced by distance learning courses, because emotional contact and real-life interaction between an instructor and students play a key role in acquiring knowledge. However, during the necessary distance learning period which has been lasting for more than a year (since the spring of 2020), the methods and learning tools of online education as well as their advantages have been crystallized. The article highlights some Internet resources (TV programmes, podcasts, publications, links, etc.) that may help to hold virtual classes of Romanian as a foreign language. These materials have been of great support in my practice of teaching the Romanian language online (with the help of programmes and platforms such as Zoom and Microsoft Teams) in the groups of Russian students in the first and in the third-forth year (bachelor's degree) who have been studying Romanian as their major specialization at St. Petersburg State University.
Job Satisfaction, Lifelong Learning, and Clinical Performance of Novice Nurses
Authors: Patagoc Morie Vee , Taghoy Sammy
Published: February 2024

Job satisfaction and lifelong learning are essential in the workplace for every employee. For novice employees, those are very important to perform well. This study determined the novice nurses' job satisfaction, lifelong learning, and clinical performance at Amai Pakpak Medical Center in Marawi City, Gregorio T. Lluch Memorial Hospital, and St. Mary's Maternity and Children Hospital Iligan City. The study utilized the descriptive-correlational design of research. The Job Satisfaction Questionnaire, Lifelong Learning Questionnaire, and Clinical Performance Questionnaire were used in gathering the data. In addition, mean, Standard Deviation, and Pearson's Product-Moment Correlation Coefficient were used in analyzing the data gathered. One hundred twenty novice nurses were the respondents of the study, selected through purposive sampling. The study revealed that novice nurses were satisfied with their job and were very satisfactory in their lifelong learning. They also had satisfactory clinical performance. As correlated, nurses' job satisfaction greatly influenced clinical performance, particularly in managing rapidly changing situations, administering and monitoring therapeutic interventions and regimens, and helping roles. In contrast, lifelong learning has no significant relationship with performance. The working environment corresponds to the nurse's commitment to working efficiently. However, learning is applied to one's work depending on the learning environment. It is necessary, therefore, to advance one's learning to have much better clinical performance.

Servicios ecosistémicos de bosques: producción agropecuaria
Authors: Rodríguez-Crespo Greicy de la Caridad , Domínguez-Junco Osvaldo , Ortega-Pérez Laura Elena
Published: February 2024

Es conocido que los bosques que colindan con terrenos de producción agropecuaria ejercen impactos sobre éstos relacionados con sus servicios ecosistémicos. Si los mismos presentan la calidad requerida, de acuerdo al estado de conservación, el estado ecológico de la red hídrica, en especial las aguas para regadío y mantenimiento de la humedad del suelo, favoreciendo su calidad ya que atenúan los efectos de la sequía. El servicio ecosistémico de biodiversidad con la presencia de un adecuado índice de diversidad de especies, tanto de la flora como de la fauna, garantiza los procesos necesarios relacionados con la producción agrícola, por ejemplo, la polinización; la calidad atmosférica en las áreas agrícolas se ve favorecida por el servicio de secuestro y almacenamiento de carbono en los bosques aledaños. Los sistemas agrosilvopastoriles favorecen la producción pecuaria, entre otros. No obstante, son escasos los estudios que evalúen el impacto de dichos servicios ecosistémicos de bosques colindantes con terrenos dedicados a la agropecuaria, en su producción. De ahí que este trabajo partió de la interrogante de ¿en qué medida la calidad de los servicios ecosistémicos de bosques aledaños impacta en la producción agropecuaria?, realizando para ello un análisis en un polígono demostrativo ubicado en el municipio Viñales de Pinar del Río, Cuba.

ABSTRACT

It is known that the forests that adjoin agricultural production lands exert impacts on them related to their ecosystem services. If they present the required quality, according to the state of conservation, the ecological state of the water network, especially water for irrigation and maintenance of soil moisture, favoring its quality as it mitigates the effects of drought. The ecosystem service of biodiversity with the presence of an adequate index of diversity of species, both flora and fauna, guarantees the necessary processes related to agricultural production, for example pollination; The atmospheric quality in agricultural areas is favored by the carbon sequestration and storage service in the surrounding forests. Agrosilvopastoral systems favor livestock production, among others. However, there are few studies that evaluate the impact of these ecosystem services of forests adjacent to land dedicated to agriculture, on their production. Hence, this work started from the question of to what extent the quality of the ecosystem services of neighboring forests impact agricultural production? carrying out an analysis in a demonstrative polygon located in the municipality of Viñales de Pinar del Río, Cuba.

Environmental management for sustainable development in Ecuador. Internship in province, El Oro
Authors: Palomeque-Solano María Eugenia , Rosales-Muñoz Camila Kiana , Pazaca-Paladines Sofia Elena
Published: February 2024

The current patterns of production and consumption are causing a staggered degradation of the environment and social marginalization. Strengthening policies to improve waste management and reverse part of the environmental degradation is an elementary step towards sustainable development. The present work proposes to systematize experiences on environmental management for sustainable development, with emphasis on the behavior of indicators of waste management in Ecuador. The object of practical study is focused on the El Oro province, Machala canton. A descriptive statistical study was carried out to compare indicators of organic waste management in the urban and rural regions of Ecuador, according to the available information, as well as the total organic waste treated and recovered, during the period 2018-2021. From the El Oro province, the types of solid waste were analyzed and finally a forecast model of the resident population in Machala was obtained for the five-year period 2021-2025, showing a sustained growth, whose density must be directly related to the generation of waste, for which policies are required to facilitate it. The variability in the available information could limit the validation of procedures and statistical models at an international level.

ABSTRACT

Water is one of the essential natural resources for the sustainability of ecosystems as it constitutes a vital resource for their habitability. Of special significance are the mountain ecosystems, since most of the world's great rivers begin their flow in mountainous areas. The objective of this work is to characterize the water resource for the sustainable management of its quality, availability and sanitation. It is based on the goals of objective 6 of the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development from descriptive research, where retrospective applications are shown in the Montañas de Guamuhaya ecosystem with mathematical statistical models to estimate water quality. 16 actions are presented for the monitoring and control of the water resource. Binary logistic regression, multiple linear regression, and exponential smoothing models make it possible to assess water quality.

In the current international context, after the Covid-19 pandemic, companies develop in a highly competitive environment where the customer is increasingly demanding; and that is why they recognize the importance of carrying out an integrated management to ensure the products and services demanded by customers, in the quantity and with the required quality, in the ideal time, in the right place and at the lowest possible cost. The above is reflected in Cuban companies, some of which play a fundamental role in the commercialization of products in the country. The article aims to develop actions to strengthen logistics management in Cuban companies; all of which made it possible to demonstrate that competitiveness depends on the logistics efficiency of the supply chain. For the achievement of the research, the mixed approach was used, with the combination of quantitative and qualitative methods, in order to fulfill the proposed objective.

Keywords:

Competitiveness, logistics, supply chain.
