Disagreement and (im)politeness in a Spanish family members’ WhatsApp group
Authors: Fernández-Amaya Lucía
Published: December 2019

The present paper explores disagreement and impoliteness in a WhatsApp interaction within a Spanish family that took place during the 2018 International Women’s Day. The conversation is linguistically examined using categories of disagreement strategies proposed by previous authors (Pomerantz 1984, Brown and Levinson 1987, Rees-Miller 2000, Locher 2004, Kreutel 2007, Malamed 2010, Shum and Lee 2013). Furthermore, multimodal analysis (Dresner and Herring 2010, 2013, Jewitt 2013, Bourlai and Herring 2014; Herring 2015) is used to consider not only participants’ linguistic strategies for expressing disagreement, but also the function of multimedia elements and emojis (Dresner and Herring 2010, 2013, Yus 2014, 2017, Sampietro 2016a, 2016b, Aull 2019). The analysis is followed by an interview to better understand the participants’ communicative intentions towards disagreements in relation to (im)politeness. A total of 427 instances of disagreement are identified, with the most common strategies being giving opposite opinions and emotional or personal reasons. This is to be expected since the group is divided from the very beginning into detractors and supporters of feminism, and they are also defending their opposite viewpoints by giving examples from their own life experience. Based on the participants’ opinions, the most significant result is the fact that, although disagreement may lead to face-threat, and thus impoliteness in other contexts (Langlotz and Locher 2012, Sifianou 2012, Shum and Lee 2013), in this WhatsApp interaction, the Spanish family members did not consider it to be impolite, and it is even evaluated in positive terms by some of the participants (Angouri and Locher 2012).
Relational Work in Airbnb reviews
Authors: Hernández-López María De la O
Published: December 2019

Peer-to-peer businesses such as Airbnb have recently given rise to new travel trends in which electronic word of mouth, in the form of online consumer reviews (OCRs, henceforth), is the main trust mechanism with a threefold purpose: to make informed decisions regarding accommodation, gain good reputation, and manage the relational component as continuity from the offline stage of the experience. In the light of the above, this study will analyse 120 reviews (60 positive and 60 negative) written by Airbnb travellers and linked to three different emotional orientations: delighted/satisfied, ambivalent/neutral, and dissatisfied/disappointed. Taking an illocutionary and stylistic domain perspective, the reviews will be examined to understand how users manage relational work (Watts 1989, Locher and Watts 2005, Locher 2006, Locher and Watts 2008), and to ascertain what is likely to be the ‘norm’ in this particular genre (i.e., OCRs) and for the particular Virtual Community of Practice (VCoP, henceforth) (i.e., guests and hosts interacting in Airbnb). The results show that being polite seems to be the norm (hence being politic), while being rude or offensive is the exception. The data also suggest that users tend to be politic/polite through very enthusiastic and friendly messages, while dissatisfaction and ambivalence are shown by means of a process of depersonalisation, with a tone based on formality and distancing from the host. Information is also obtained from what is not said, which creates the implicature of dissatisfaction. This seems to be implicitly understood by the members of this VCoP, who seem to perceive sociability as pivotal to assess their experience.
Formal and Informal Russian Invitation: Context and Politeness Strategies
Authors: Vlasyan Gayane Rubenovna , Kozhukhova Irina Vladimirovna
Published: December 2019

Invitation is a speech act which is perceived differently across cultures. Understanding the pragmatics of invitation requires knowledge of the notion of politeness and politeness strategies which comprise culture specific elements. Politeness is realized in various discourses, social contexts and speech acts. The purpose of the study is to identify politeness strategies in Russian invitation in formal and informal contexts in three age groups and see how they correspond to the understanding of politeness in Russian communicative culture. The empirical data for the study were obtained through discourse completion tests with 101 participants (issuers of the invitation) of different age and social status as well as through ethnographic observation. The research is based on Discourse Analysis and Politeness Theory (Brown & Levinson 1987; Larina2009, 2015; Locher 2006, 2013; Leech 2014; Mills 2003, 2017; Sifianou 1992; Terkourafi &Kadar 2017; Watts 2003, among others). We used discourse analysis to analyze the impact of the social and cultural context on the performance of invitation, the descriptive method which was used to analyze the pragmatic functions of invitation, as well as contextual interpretation of this speech act and the method of quantitative data processing. The study revealed some differences between a formal and informal invitation concerning politeness strategies and linguistic means of its expression. It also showed that in Russian culture issuing an invitation is not perceived as a face threatening speech act; in the analysed social contexts the preference is given to direct invitation, and the inviter’s imposition, as a rule, is perceived positively. The results contribute to a better understanding of Russian politeness and communicative style and can be implemented in intercultural pragmatics, intercultural communication and SL teaching.

’Study of/as Commoning’ is one of the outcomes of a research project realized by a group of artists, architects and social theorists at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna (2014–16). In times of ongoing environmental crisis, violent land grabbing and the aggressive financialisation of space, time and subjectivities, combined with global migration flows, the research group explored the debates on the commons and the different practices of commoning as potentially providing new entry points for a radical repudiation of neoliberalism. To date, the labor and conflicts involved in the process of commoning have chafed against a Western utopian understanding of the commons as a coming together free of friction. We explored commoning as a process, simultaneously made against and within, existing fields of power. As such, ‘Study as/of Commoning’ is part of a much wider endeavour to rethink and undo the methodological premises of Western sciences, arts and architecture, raising unsettling questions on (artistic) research ethics, accountability, and the entanglement of power and knowledge. In this context, ‘Study of/as Commoning’ considers commoning as a possible methodology, a modality of social relations, and the collective state of mind that framed the research group’s work together. Our research continuously encountered the limitations of Western concepts of the commons, framed as an enclosure that neglects conditions of coloniality and colonial dispossession. Is it possible to hold on to the empowering notions of commoning while acknowledging the significant absences within Western accounts on the commons and the many connections between the commons and the history of empire?
Digitally Produced Jewellery: Tactile Qualities of a Digital Touch
Authors: Sofia Hallik  , Darja Popolitova
Published: December 2019

The importance of tactile contact between the artist and their jewellery has increased over the last decade. More and more artists now implement digital technologies into their work process. This raises questions about the notion of tactility, something that is usually associated as something tangible or given to touch. The authors show that there is a different sensorial mode of engagement with jewellery presented on the screen: during the 3D modelling process or 3D printing. This article aims to investigate the intangible qualities of tactility in the field of digital crafts, while focusing on the material, technical, performative, and psychological aspects. The outcomes include a set of tactile qualities evoked by screen-oriented labour and machinery production: resolution sensitivity, thin-skinned data, psycho-performative realism; and fingerprints, incompleteness and glitch.

Published: December 2019

Permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus (PNDM) is caused by reduced β-cell number or impaired β-cell function. Understanding of the genetic basis of this disorder highlights fundamental β-cell mechanisms. We performed trio genome sequencing for 44 patients with PNDM and their unaffected parents to identify causative de novo variants. Replication studies were performed in 188 patients diagnosed with diabetes before 2 years of age without a genetic diagnosis. EIF2B1 (encoding the eIF2B complex α subunit) was the only gene with novel de novo variants (all missense) in at least three patients. Replication studies identified two further patients with de novo EIF2B1 variants. In addition to having diabetes, four of five patients had hepatitis-like episodes in childhood. The EIF2B1 de novo mutations were found to map to the same protein surface. We propose that these variants render the eIF2B complex insensitive to eIF2 phosphorylation, which occurs under stress conditions and triggers expression of stress response genes. Failure of eIF2B to sense eIF2 phosphorylation likely leads to unregulated unfolded protein response and cell death. Our results establish de novo EIF2B1 mutations as a novel cause of permanent diabetes and liver dysfunction. These findings confirm the importance of cell stress regulation for β-cells and highlight EIF2B1’s fundamental role within this pathway.

Authors: Lacy Mary E. , Gilsanz Paola , Eng Chloe , Beeri Michal S. , Karter Andrew J. , Whitmer Rachel A.
Published: December 2019

OBJECTIVE

In children with type 1 diabetes (T1D), severe hypoglycemia (SH) is associated with poorer cognition, but the association of SH with cognitive function in late life is unknown. Given the increasing life expectancy in people with T1D, understanding the role of SH in brain health is crucial.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

We examined the association between SH and cognitive function in 718 older adults with T1D from the Study of Longevity in Diabetes (SOLID). Subjects self-reported recent SH (previous 12 months) and lifetime history of SH resulting in inpatient/emergency department utilization. Global and domain-specific cognition (language, executive function, episodic memory, and simple attention) were assessed. The associations of SH with cognitive function and impaired cognition were evaluated via linear and logistic regression models, respectively.

RESULTS

Thirty-two percent of participants (mean age 67.2 years) reported recent SH and 50% reported lifetime SH. Compared with those with no SH, subjects with a recent SH history had significantly lower global cognition scores. Domain-specific analyses revealed significantly lower scores on language, executive function, and episodic memory with recent SH exposure and significantly lower executive function with lifetime SH exposure. Recent SH was associated with impaired global cognition (odds ratio [OR] 3.22, 95% CI 1.30, 7.94) and cognitive impairment on the language domain (OR 3.15, 95% CI 1.19, 8.29).

CONCLUSIONS

Among older adults with T1D, recent SH and lifetime SH were associated with worse cognition. Recent SH was associated with impaired global cognition. These findings suggest a deleterious role of SH on the brain health of older patients with T1D and highlight the importance of SH prevention.
Impact of Treating Oral Disease on Preventing Vascular Diseases: A Model-Based Cost-effectiveness Analysis of Periodontal Treatment Among Patients With Type 2 Diabetes
Authors: Choi Sung Eun , Sima Corneliu , Pandya Ankur
Published: December 2019

OBJECTIVE

Previous randomized trials found that treating periodontitis improved glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), thus lowering the risks of developing T2D-related microvascular diseases and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Some payers in the U.S. have started covering nonsurgical periodontal treatment for those with chronic conditions, such as diabetes. We sought to identify the cost-effectiveness of expanding periodontal treatment coverage among patients with T2D.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

A cost-effectiveness analysis was conducted to estimate lifetime costs and health gains using a stochastic microsimulation model of oral health conditions, T2D, T2D-related microvascular diseases, and CVD of the U.S. population. Model parameters were obtained from the nationally representative National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) (2009–2014) and randomized trials of periodontal treatment among patients with T2D.

RESULTS

Expanding periodontal treatment coverage among patients with T2D and periodontitis would be expected to avert tooth loss by 34.1% (95% CI −39.9, −26.5) and microvascular diseases by 20.5% (95% CI −31.2, −9.1), 17.7% (95% CI −32.7, −4.7), and 18.4% (95% CI −34.5, −3.5) for nephropathy, neuropathy, and retinopathy, respectively. Providing periodontal treatment to the target population would be cost saving from a health care perspective at a total net savings of $5,904 (95% CI −6,039, −5,769) with an estimated gain of 0.6 quality-adjusted life years per capita (95% CI 0.5, 0.6).

CONCLUSIONS

Providing nonsurgical periodontal treatment to patients with T2D and periodontitis would be expected to significantly reduce tooth loss and T2D-related microvascular diseases via improved glycemic control. Encouraging patients with T2D and poor oral health conditions to receive periodontal treatment would improve health outcomes and still be cost saving or cost-effective.

Authors: Chen Suzhen , Joyce Margaret
Published: December 2019

In this paper, we explore the most essential knowledge and skills to impart in an introductory-level cataloging and metadata course. We use the basic cataloging and metadata class in the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa Library and Information Science Program as a case study, sharing our experiences, thoughts, and planned future direction in teaching cataloging, classification, metadata, and information organization. We investigate what University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa Library and Information Science (LIS) students expect to learn from the class, as well as how they perceive knowledge of and skills in cataloging and metadata affecting their career paths. We also inquire into topics that the students are interested in exploring related to cataloging and metadata. We examine emerging trends and evaluate which information and skills are most useful for LIS students and new librarians to learn for their library careers. These ideas are built upon our own experiences teaching these topics. This article synthesizes literature review, observation of trends within cataloging and metadata, and surveys taken by students enrolled in the course.

The importance of enterococcus bacteria in ethiology of urinary tract infection
Authors: Smieško Gordana
Published: December 2019

Enterococci are classified as Streptococcus D group. Genetic studies in the 1980s have led to the conclusion that they have enough distinction to be classified into a particular genus. Enterococci cause: urinary infections, especially in patients with catheter, in immunocompromised individuals, the infections of the biliary tract, soft tissue abscess, and wound infection. It is a relatively common cause of endocarditis, especially in people with damaged or artificial heart valve. Enterococci are the most common cause of urinary tract infections (IUT): about 10% of all and about 16% of intra-hospital IUT. In second place in frequency are intra-abdominal and pancreatic wounds, but these infections often cause multiple causes, so the assessment of the importance of enterococci in them is debatable. In third place is the bacteremia most commonly occurring in hospital conditions in immunocompromised patients who are lying long in hospitals and receiving antibiotics.
Thrombocytopenia as one of the reasons of prolonged stay in the Neonatal intensive care unit
Authors: Zulić Evlijana , Hadžić Devleta
Published: December 2019

The aim of this paper was to present the occurrence and severity of thrombocytopenia, with intracranial and another bleeding in neonates with sepsis, analyze the risk factors for the development of thrombocytopenia and compare it with the length of hospitalization in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Thrombocytopenia is a platelet count <150 x 109/L and is common in newborns during hospitalization in the NICU. In the early days of life, the most common causes of thrombocytopenia in newborns are conditions that lead to fetal hypoxia, intrauterine growth failure, maternal hypertension, and sepsis. In this study were included all newborns with thrombocytopenia, who were hospitalized in NICU, Children's Disease Clinic, University Clinical Centre in Tuzla, from 01. 01. 2014 to 01. 01. 2019. In our results, 379 newborns had severe, 337 moderate, and 127 milder forms of thrombocytopenia, without a statistically significant difference in the incidence of thrombocytopenia between groups of neonates born < 37 GW and 37 GW. Sepsis was the most common cause of thrombocytopenia, 300 children had early sepsis and 190 late. We found the statistically significant difference in intracranial hemorrhage of the second degree and pulmonary hemorrhage among neonates born < 37 GW in relation to newborns born 37 GW. A statistically significant effect of length of stay of our neonates in the Department of Neonatal Intensive Therapy and morbidity was shown in relation to the lower gestational age and lower platelet counts. Conclusion: Timely diagnosis of the cause and development of thrombocytopenia with adequate and effective treatment can reduce the mortality and morbidity of newborns with perinatal risk for neonatal thrombocytopenia.
A case of epithelial adrenal gland cyst
Authors: Vujicik Ivo
Published: December 2019

Introduction: Adrenal gland cysts are relatively rare cystic lesions, which are usually discovered incidentally with the widespread use of radiological imaging techniques. Case report: We reported a clinical case of a 36-year -old woman who presented with a 6 months history of right flank discomfort. The contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography revealed a well-circumscribed cystic lesion with a capsule in the Morrison's pouch measuring 57 x 51 mm. On abdominal magnetic resonance imagining (MRI), the cystic lesion exhibited a hypointensity on T-1 weighted images and hyperintensity on T-2 weighted images. Surgery was decided because of lesion size and doubts concerning its etiology. The final histopathological diagnosis was an epithelial cyst of the adrenal gland. In summary, epithelial adrenal cysts are uncommon retroperitoneal lesions. In our case, open adrenalectomy was performed and the prognosis was excellent.
Comparing the outcomes of routine and selective epicardial pacing wire placement: A single-center experience of 237 patients
Authors: Khalil Emced
Published: December 2019

Objective: Recently, the use of epicar-dial pacing wires (EPW) has become the standard of care for patients undergoing open-heart surgery (OHS) at many cardiovascular surgery centers. However, the routine use of EPWs after OHS is increasingly questioning due to their potentially lethal complications and limited efficacy. Here, we aimed to investigate the impact of EPW placement on in-hospital mortality and to compare the frequency of the EPW related complications in patients receiving routine or selective EPW placement after elective OHS. Methods: A total of 237 patients undergoing OHS in our clinic (ORDU UN¤VERSTY TRA¤N¤NG AND RESEARCH HOSP¤TAL) were enrolled in this study. Study subjects were randomly assigned to one of the groups: Routine or selective EPW placement. In the latter, EPWs were placed according to the presence of intraoperative bradycardia with hemodynamic compromise , nodal or junctional arrhythmias, atrioventri-cular block or ventricular tachycardia. Results: There were 95 patients (40 %) receiving routine EPW and 142 (60%) patients receiving selective EPW. Active pacing was performed or required in 13 patients (5.4%). Five of them were in routine EPW group and 8 were in the selective EPW group (p = 0.902). Active pacing requirement was similar in coronary artery bypass grafting and valvular surgery (5% vs. 9%, p = 0.712, respectively). Permanent pacing was required in any of the subjects. Complications related to EPW occurred in 17 patients receiving routine EPW and 2 patients receiving selective EPW (p < 0.001). Routine EPW implantation was significantly correlated with the development of the complications (r = 0.309, p <0.001). Conclusion: Our findings indicate that the number of patients requiring temporary pacing after OHS is quite low and implementing an EPW is associated with potentially hazardous complications. Selective EPW placement compared to routine EPW placement is associated with fewer postoperative complications.
Main Conditions for Capitalization of the Human Potential of Modern Russian Youth Neither in Employment nor Education and Training
Authors:   Saint Petersburg State University, Ivanov Oleg Ivanovich
Published: December 2019

The paper provides the author’s interpretation of the human potential of modern Russian youth who are neither in employment nor education and training (NEET). The author distinguishes three main com-ponents of such potential: desire of young people to carry out socially necessary activities (primari-ly educational and labor activities), ability to сon-duct such activities, and the willingness to start their implementation immediately if necessary. The study considers basic conditions for capitalization of the human potential of modern Russian NEET youth. These conditions include the following: proper interpretation of the human potential of young people; potential’s sufficient development; increase of "investments" into such a potential, as well as their rational distribution and use; ensuring that basic social institutions are responsive to valid demands of young people; the responsibility of dif-ferent officials to develop systems of needs, abilities and willingness of the young generation to carry out socially necessary activities and to create a favoura-ble institutional environment for realization of the developed human potential of the young.
Value Orientations of Russian Students in the Conditions of Sociocultural Changes in the Russian Society (the Case of the State University of Management)
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Kroshkina Maria Sergeevna
Published: December 2019

The paper considers the issue of value orientations of modern university students in the conditions of changing Russian society. The author examines the main theoretical approaches to the definition of “value orientations” concept in philosophy and so-ciology. The research demonstrates which value orientations dominate among the younger genera-tion these days, how they were changing over the past 30 years and in which direction they con-tinue to transform at present time. The novelty of the study is to consider value orientations of the young as in the case of a particular social group, namely students of the State University of Manage-ment. There are provided the main results of an em-pirical study aimed at identifying the dominant value orientations of university students. The method of M. Rokich, distinguishing two classes of values: terminal and instrumental, served a methodological background of the present research. The compari-son of the author’s research with data of the opinion poll held among the young people of the late Soviet period revealed the growth of pragmatic trends in value orientations. The study defines the factors of developing value orientations of the mod-ern young people as a perspective direction of the research.

Published: December 2019

The paper presents the results of an empirical study aimed at defining and analyzing the attitude to the image of LGBT community among representatives of various social and age groups in Russia. The study involved 84 people with different educational background, living in the Russian Federation aged 17–41 years. The study has revealed that in general the attitude to the image of LGBT community among the respondents of different social and age groups in Russia is not related to their gender, age, as well as to aggressiveness, tolerance and the pro-jective psychological defense mechanism. There is given an explanation of some tendencies of the atti-tude of members of the three identified age groups (adolescence and youth, early maturity, mid-maturity) to LGBT taking into account their domi-nant psychological defense mechanism. It is noted that the attitude to LGBT community in various so-cial and age groups is rather positive and neutral.

Published: December 2019

The paper presents the results of the study of the relationship of creative abilities and its components with various types of intelligence among young people. The relevance of the study in the framework of the research of the younger generation is indicat-ed. Diagnostic results of the studied personality traits of the subjects are shown and various levels of development of types of intelligence and compo-nents of creative abilities in young people are de-scribed. The following methods of studying creative abilities and intelligence were used: the test of E. Torrens, the test of D. Wexler, the test of researching the structure of intelligence of R. Amthauer. The correlation between the studied traits is analyzed and the correlation between the various compo-nents of creative abilities and types of intelligence is proved. It has been confirmed that there is a close connection between verbal intelligence, geometric composition, spatial imagination with the creative abilities of the individual: flexibility, fluency, origi-nality and sophistication. The conditions for the implementation of correlating intellectual and crea-tive abilities are named. The results of the study can be used in consulting, correctional and developing work of a psychologist, as well as in the develop-ment of psychological programs to help the admin-istration, curators and tutors of student groups to improve the educational work of educational institu-tions at various levels.

Published: December 2019

The results of an empirical study aimed at establish-ing the peculiarities of the manifestation of emo-tional burnout syndrome and identifing its moral and value determinants in teachers of general and higher education are presented in the paper. The idea that the adverse effects upon the occurrence of burnout syndrome in a teacher are manifested both at the individual (personality of the specialist) and at the group (interaction with students and colleagues) levels is substantiated. It was revealed that universi-ty teachers and school teachers have differences in the manifestation and moral and value determinants of burnout syndrome. It was established that the syndrome of emotional burnout has already devel-oped or is at the stage of formation in the majority of respondents, a tendency to a spiritual crisis was also found among teachers from both groups, which confirms the relevance and significance of the analyzed problem. A promising area of research is the further research aimed at developing a program for the prevention and psychological correction of burnout syndrome among teachers of different edu-cational levels.

The paper presents the results of an empirical study aimed at identification of the relationship between the level of personal creative potential and the fea-tures of sanogenic reflection. The topic is relevant, since currently an active search is underway for new approaches and methods to the development of the creative potential of an individual, for example, school students. It is argued that the high creative potential of the individual contributes to meeting the needs of the individual in creative self-realization in various areas of life. Representatives of creative professions took part in the study, therefore it is natural that the level of creative potential of the sub-jects is high. In addition, respondents revealed low levels of aggression against themselves and self-derogation of the “I” and a high level of sanogenic, realistic thinking. It is concluded that sanogenic reflection is a determining factor in the development of creative potential.

The study considers the problem of updating the content of professional training of undergraduates in connection with the adoption of Academic Stand-ards 3 ++. Based on the analysis of the approaches of modern scientists to innovative activity in the education system, the competencies that an elemen-tary school teacher should possess are highlighted. The main attention is paid to the construction of practical training of students on the example of technological practice in the framework of the im-plementation of the master’s program “Innovative Primary School”. The author defines the goals and objectives of technological practice, shows its ca-pabilities in shaping the experience of innovative activity among students of the master’s program. Using the example of the organization of profes-sional training of undergraduates, we consider the system of forming components of competencies both within the framework of theoretical training and in the process of organizing practice. Mastering innovative methods and technologies within the framework of practice can become one of the effec-tive ways of developing the necessary competencies of a modern elementary school teacher.

In the modern Russian higher education system, there are tendencies for personification of educa-tion, in connection with which the problem of differ-entiating the content of education, which is well studied and described in the scientific and meth-odological literature mainly for secondary education, is actualized. The paper considers one of the effec-tive methods of teaching differentiation – level dif-ferentiation – in its various aspects: depending on the form of organization of academic work (group and individual), the homogeneity/heterogeneity of the subgroups of the academic group (homogene-ous and heterogeneous), the stage of the educa-tional process (when setting out or consolidation of new material), in the context of the use of interactive teaching methods: the project method and the business game. The authors’ criteria for dividing the academic group into subgroups are presented: the level of knowledge, the ability to learn, working ca-pacity and the ability to organize your work. Four possible homogeneous groups of students are iden-tified, taking into account the aforementioned crite-ria and the gradation of the formation of competen-cies (advanced, basic, threshold levels). The au-thors’ experience of applications of level differentia-tion of education in the educational process at the university is presented.

The purpose of the study is to describe the stages of development and implementation in the educa-tional process of one of the forms of practical train-ing, namely, a computer workshop. The relevance of the work is determined by the need for didactic support for teaching a mathematics course using information technology. The research problem is that when setting out the subject, innovations aimed at optimizing the stages of learning are not sufficiently involved. At the same time, a computer workshop is not a substitute for traditional forms of training, but their complement. The object of study is the process of mathematical preparation with the help of a computer workshop in mathematics, the subject is the creation of such a workshop. The need to introduce a similar form of training into the educational process arose because of the shortage of time allocated for fixing the material. In this re-gard, the basic elements of the workshop according to the curriculum are identified. In addition, the integral components of the process are the general-ization and classification of the mathematics course in terms of theoretical material, as well as the systematization of skills for solving general and professional problems in the specialty, as a result of which the teaching time of the teacher and stu-dents can be released. There is a goal of designing didactic materials, allowing to realize the idea of intensifying students’ activities with the prospect of self-control. Among other things, an important part of introducing a computer workshop into the educational process is saving the teacher’s time spent on repeating and controlling the knowledge of students with the help of computer support and well-designed didactic materials, which are ele-ments of a didactic complex based on standards.

Ermeni Sorunu'nun Ortaya Çıkış Sürecinde Bir Ermeni Aydını: Minas Çeraz ve Yurtdışındaki Faaliyetlerinin Analizi
Authors: YAVUZ Fikrettin
Published: December 2019

19.

yüzyılın başından itibaren Osmanlı Devleti’nin en önemli sorunlarından biri

milliyetçilik cereyanına paralel olarak gelişen gayrimüslim tebaanın

bağımsızlık hareketleri olmuştur. Yunan, Bulgar ve Ermeni örneklerinde bu hareketlerin

bayraktarlıklarını kiliseler ve din adamları, komiteler ve öğretmenler gibi

milletlerini etkileme konumunda bulunanlar yapmıştır. Ermenilerin

özerklik/bağımsızlık isteklerinde meselenin uluslararası boyuta taşınması ve dünya

kamuoyunda tanınmasında birçok Avrupa ülkesi ve Amerika'daki faaliyetleriyle

karşımıza çıkan önemli simalardan biri de çok yönlü bir şahsiyet olan Minas Çeraz'dır.

 1852-1929 yılları arasında yaşamış olan Çeraz,

Ermeni Sorunu'nun gelişim sürecindeki simalardan biri olarak eğitim hayatını müteakip

önce Ermeni Patriği Genel Sekreteri ardından Berlin Kongresi'ne patrikhane

tarafından gönderilen heyetin tercümanı olarak görev almıştı. Bu süreçteki

çabalarından memnun kalan dönemin Patriği Nerses Varjabedyan, onu heyetin Berlin’den

dönmesinden bir süre sonra, Londra’da Ermeniler adına çeşitli temaslarda bulunmak

üzere İngiltere'ye gönderdi. Daha sonra, “Ermenilerin temsilcisi” olarak 1893’te

Chicago Dünya Dinleri Konferansı ve ardından 1899’da Lahey Barış Konferansı

gibi uluslararası toplantılara katılan Çeraz'ın önemli bir özelliği de önce

İngiltere'de ardından Fransa’da yayınladığı “L’Arménie” dergisi ile Osmanlı

Devleti’ne karşı yürüttüğü yayın faaliyeti olmuştur.

Bu makalenin amacı Ermeni

Davası için daha birçok görev ve sorumluluk üstlenen Minas Çeraz'ın Ermeni

Sorunu'nun ortaya çıkış sürecinde özellikle Batı kamuoyunu kazanmaya yönelik faaliyetlerinin

genel bir çerçevesini çizmek ve böylece Çeraz örneğinde dönemin Ermeni

aydınlarının meseleye bakışlarını analiz etmektir.
