Television and environmental sustainability: Arguing a case for a code of standards in NZ
Authors: Spellerberg Ian S , Buchan Graeme D. , Early Nick
Published: February 2020

This article explores the portrayal of the environment and environmental sustainability by free-to-air network television in New Zealand. The results are based on a three-month survey of a) the portrayal of the use and treatment of the environment, and b) the reporting of environmental news. While television includes environmentally-oriented programmes (eg. some BBC Horizon documentaries), there are no regular programmes about the state of the environment, sustainable use of resources and energy, and there is no regular environmental slot in the news in New Zealand. Some programmes and advertisements are environmentally unfriendly and a few trivialise resource abuse. It is argued that the media has an ‘orchestrational’ influence on social norms and behaviours, and that to eliminate counter-messages requires the addition of a new ‘environmental standard’ to the Code of Broadcasting Practice. It is also argued that coverage of environmental news is quite narrow and, in the case of Television New Zealand, inconsistent with the stated aims of the Television Charter. New Zealand  television could and should make a valuable contribution to environmental sustainability.
The Relation between the Church, State and Politics in a Society of Religious (Ideological) Pluralism – a Free Church Perspective
Authors: Iff Markus
Published: February 2020

The article describes and reflects the extent to which the free-church path of separation between church and state secures its independence from state influence and at the same time creates scope for assuming political responsibility and influencing society. To this end, the origins and development as well as the probation and problems of the free church principle of the separation of church and state are examined. Against this background, a fundamental relationship of church, state and politics in terms of religious, plural and secular societies is reflected and developed. The separation of state and church does not mean that they ignore each other. The religious institutions, people and beliefs take part in shaping law, public policy and organizing civic engagement. Therefore the public and political responsibility of churches and theology is examined from a free-church point of view.

The gender aspect of image formation in the modern information society
Authors: Yushkina N. A.
Published: February 2020

The information space affects social processes and forms a new system of values, ideas about a person as a person, its self-expression and achievement of success in various areas of life. Image becomes an expression of new requirements of public consciousness. Based on the data of a sociological study, it has been identified and analyzed in the article: what value guidelines and qualities make up the image of the most authoritative representatives of modern Russian society, what is the gender composition of these representatives, as well as professional areas and qualities that help women gain a high level of trust and create a positive image in the modern information society.

The factors, contributing to the formation of a negative image, have been considered, 329 interviews in 8 federal districts have been conducted. In the course of the interview, the respondents indicated the representatives of the society who, in their opinion, had the most positive image and high level of trust, as  well as the opposite example of a negative image, causing a low rating. Asymmetry in the criteria for evaluating the image of women and men by society, as well as gender imbalance among representatives with high public authority have been revealed.

The boundaries of the permissible presence of women at the top of society, determined by the society itself, have been denoted. Professional areas in which women are better able to form a  positive image in the conditions of the modern information society have been noticed. It has been identified, that charity is a valuable component of a positive image of a woman in all professional fields. Traditional gender values continue to be an important component of the image. A high level of presence in the information space can contribute to image building and have negative consequences.
Formation of Russian magistracy: implementation of the digital economy requests in the educational process
Authors: Voevodina E. V.
Published: February 2020

The state of Russian magistracy in the transition to a digital economy has been studied. Some aspects of Russia’s accession to the Bologna process have been affected – problems of transition associated with a lack of understanding of the essence of transformations by the main stakeholders have been noted. The issues of socialization of students of the «digital» generation have been analyzed, the most characteristic of them – the desire for constant change, intolerance of the same type of problems, good knowledge of information technology. It has been noticed, that Russian magistracy is faced with the need to adapt to the needs of the digital economy, as well as the «generational» characteristics of representatives of generation Z.

The results of an empirical sociological study “Birth of a Russian magistracy”, carried out as part of the project of the Higher School of Economics Institute of Education, have been presented. The purpose of this study is to analyze the state of modern Russian magistracy and define key processes in which the main Acknowlegements. The article reflects the results of the research in the framework of the project “Birth of the Russian master’s degree”, implemented by the HSE Institute of education, the winner of the Vladimir Potanin Scholarship program of The V. Potanin Charitable Foundation. © The Author(s), 2019. This is an open access article under the CC BY 4.0 license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/). stakeholders (students, teachers and employers) are involved. The results of a survey of teachers of magistracy (713) in Russian regions, as well as undergraduates (1 140), have been reflected in the article. As the main results, information on the use of modern educational technologies in the preparation of Russian undergraduates has been given – a conclusion has been made about the small distribution of on-line education and network programs in universities.

The research data characterizing the degree of digital competencies of Russian graduate students have been adduced: information search and processing, use of IT technologies, information security, ability to work with «big» data. It has been noted, that these skills are well developed among modern students, but the participation of universities in their development is low. It has been concluded, that Russian magistracy is characterized by a «transitional» period in solving the problems of the digital economy.
The study of social perceptions about Armenia by digital technologies
Authors: Komarova A. A.
Published: February 2020

The study of social perceptions of Armenia as a tourist destination using digital statistics from Yandex, reviews on tourist sites in conjunction with other sociological methods, such as “content analysis” of newspapers and artworks and questionnaire survey has been carried out. The relevance of sociological research, taking into account digital sources of information, since the Internet is currently the main provider of data on tourist countries, has been substantiated.

Tourism in modern Armenia is one of the economic sectors developing at the most intensive pace, and the country is looking for opportunities for further development of this industry, which ensures the practical significance of research related to the image of Armenia and the Armenian people in the eyes of tourists, both real and potential, just planning a trip to this country. The concept of social representations in the concept of Serge Moscovici has been considered. The methodological features of the content analysis method and its limitations have been described. The results of content analysis of Internet sources, as well as publications and cinematic sources on the topic of social representations about Armenia have been presented. The study has revealed stereotypical judgments of tourists who visited and did not visit Armenia. Also of interest is the fact that the main factors influencing the formation of a positive view of Armenia as an object of tourism are tourist awareness of the sights and culture of Armenia and experience of visiting the country. For comparative data analysis, the sample was divided into the following categories of respondents: who visited and did not visit Armenia as tourists, gender, age (two equally filled groups in each category).
Electrochemical Detection of Free-Chlorine in Water Samples Facilitated by In-Situ pH Control Using Interdigitated Microelectrodes
Authors: O'Riordan Alan , O'sullivan Benjamin , Lovera Pierre , Seymour Ian , Rohan James
Published: February 2020

Residual free-chlorine concentration in water supplies is a key metric studied to ensure disinfection. High residual chlorine concentrations lead to unpleasant odours and tastes, while low concentrations may lead to inadequate disinfection. The concentration is most commonly monitored using colorimetric techniques which require additional reagents. Electrochemical analysis offers the possibility for in-line analysis without the need for additional reagents. Electrochemical-based detection of chlorine is influenced by the solution pH, which defines the particular chlorine ionic species present in solution. As such, controlling the pH is essential to enable electrochemical based detection of residual chlorine in water. To this end, we explore the application of solid state interdigitated electrodes to tailor the in-situ pH of a solution while simultaneously detecting free-chlorine. Finite element simulations and subsequent electrochemical characterization, using gold interdigitated microelectrode arrays, were employed to explore the feasibility of an in-situ pH control approach. In practice, the approach converted residual chlorine from an initial mixture of two species (hypochlorous acid and hypochlorite ion), to one species (hypochlorous acid). Chlorine detection was shown in water samples using this exploratory method, resulting in a two-fold increase in signal response, compared to measurements without pH control. Finally, tap water samples were measured using the in-situ pH control method and the results showed excellent correlation (within experimental error) with a commercial instrument, demonstrating the efficacy of the developed technique. This work establishes the possibility of deploying an electrochemical based reagent-free, in-line chlorine sensor required for water distribution networks.
Detecting Trace Methane Levels with Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy and Supervised Machine Learning
Authors: Vincent Jordan , Wang Hui , Nibouche Omar , MAGUIRE PAUL
Published: February 2020

Trace methane detection in the parts per million range is reported using a novel detection scheme based on optical emission spectra from low temperature atmospheric pressure microplasmas. These bright low-cost plasma sources were operated under non-equilibrium conditions, producing spectra with a complex and variable sensitivity to trace levels of added gases. A data-driven machine learning approach based on Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis (PLS-DA) was implemented for CH4 concentrations up to 100 ppm in He, to provide binary classification of samples above or below a threshold of 2 ppm. With a low-resolution spectrometer and a custom spectral alignment procedure, a prediction accuracy of 98% was achieved, demonstrating the power of machine learning with otherwise prohibitively complex spectral analysis. This work establishes proof of principle for low cost and high-resolution trace gas detection with the potential for field deployment and autonomous remote monitoring.
Near-IR Absorption and Photocurrent Generation Using a First-of-Its-Kind Boron Difluoride Formazanate Non-Fullerene Acceptor
Authors: Koenig Josh D. B. , Farahat Mahmoud E. , Dhindsa Jasveer S. , Gilroy Joe , Welch Gregory
Published: February 2020

Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of the first non-fullerene acceptor (NFA) containing a boron difluoride formazanate (BF2fz) core end-capped with N-annulated perylene diimides (PDIs). Electronic coupling between the BF2fz core and the PDI endcaps enabled tuning of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, leading to near-panchromatic optical absorption. Post-deposition solvent vapor annealing of the new NFA resulted in a significant red-shift in the optical spectra, which stretched into the near-IR. Proof-of-concept organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices were constructed to demonstrate the potential of this new material as an NFA. SVA treatment of the active layer resulted in a 2-fold increase in power conversion efficiency (PCE), due mainly to increases in the BF2PDI2 generated photocurrent that extended into the near-IR.

Published: February 2020

Frente a la necesidad de fortalecer las habilidades de lectura crítica, para este caso, en estudiantes universitarios y como consecuencia de las actuales demandas sociales; al interior de la Licenciatura en Educación Infantil se está llevando a cabo una investigación que enfatiza en la aplicación de pruebas objetivas, tipo Saber Pro desde la lectura de textos disciplinares y la puesta en acción de una propuesta pedagógica que oriente a los estudiantes en el abordaje de dichos textos y su posterior encuentro con cada una de las pruebas. En relación con los referentes teóricos a desarrollar en esta ponencia se expondrán hábitos de lectura en los estudiantes universitarios y lectura crítica y educación superior. La investigación en curso es de tipo cuantitativa, con un enfoque empírico analítico y desde un método cuasiexperimental, específicamente con un diseño pretest y postest con grupo de control. A partir de los resultados encontrados en la aplicación de la encuesta de hábitos de lectura en los estudiantes, se hizo evidente que existe un distanciamiento considerable frente a la lectura de documentos con temáticas disciplinares, sumado a que el tiempo de dedicación a la lectura es insuficiente para lograr mejores procesos de nivel crítico, lo cual se refleja en el proceso formativo de los estudiantes en tanto el ejercicio se torna mecánico sin la introspección del mismo como parte inherente del estudiante y de la persona.
