Authors: Sarudin Ezzah Suraya , Omar Nor Alwani binti Omar , Mat Saleh Syadatul Syaeda
Published: March 2021

Memorizing formulas is one of the essentials tasks in learning activities. There are many formulas that have been constructed by previous researchers. The formulas developed have their own purpose such as to calculate, to estimate, to analyse and so on. One of the fields that involve more than a hundred formulas is in the education field. In education area, especially for mathematics subjects, students need to memorize the formula to let them easily get the answer to some of the questions given. In UiTM Perak Tapah Campus, there is one subject that requires students to memorize more than twenty formulas. The subject namely the Foundation of Applied Mathematics which is taken by part three students in the Faculty of Applied Sciences. In previous semester, the failure rate for this subject is increasing and always be the top issue by top management. In this paper, the effectiveness of formula extracted from the given Appendix (FEFA) techniques is discussed. FEFA is one of the tools which will help students to reduce the total number in memorizing the formula.  Primary data were gathered using the Quizizz application among 81 students who are taking MAT238 in the semester September-December 2019. The data was analysed by mixed design analysis to assess the effectiveness between pre-workshop and post-workshop. FEFA is found to be one of the good mechanisms to assist students in learning activities.

such as paralysis, stroke, handicap and many more. Electric wheelchair which is also called electric
-
power wheelchair or powerchair can be moved by an el
ectrically based power source, regularly motor or
batteries. It is very important to have frequent monitoring battery level because power wheelchair need
sufficient battery level for it to be moved around. Therefore, this project is developed to monitor th
e
battery consumption level and real time battery monitoring. Current sensor is used to measure the
current state of the battery level. In this project, Internet of Things (IoT) concept is applied where sensor
and mobile application is integrated and know
n as BLife. Blife was designed using the visibility of the
system status principles which consist of knowledge is power, appropriate feedback, compel user to
action and communication creates trusts. If the battery is in the lower state, the power wheelcha
ir users
will be informed through mobile application via an indicator informing that it needs to be recharged.
Moreover, the current location of the power wheelchair user is also notified to the users’ caretaker.
Evaluation of Blife were conducted using fu
nctionality and usability testing based on visibility of the
system status technique. Most of the respondents are satisfied and gave positive feedback. This project is
a great contribution to disable people who has limited access to charge battery and to a
lert them on their
battery level status.
Intelectuales y cultura católica: algunos problemas metodológicos y conceptuales
Authors: Zanca José
Published: March 2021

Este breve ensayo pretende mostrar algunos de los problemas metodológicos y conceptuales que enfrenta la historia de los intelectuales católicos del siglo XX, teniendo en cuenta que se trata de un campo en permanente diálogo con la sociología y la antropología. El trabajo supone que el estudio de este segmento de la intelectualidad es un medio privilegiado para comprender la compleja cultura católica argentina y su interacción con la vida política. Intenta exponer los cambios en los instrumentos de análisis de la historia del catolicismo, desde de los trabajos pioneros en la década de 1990 hasta la actualidad. Propone, en ese sentido, que la historia de la cultura católica ha seguido un camino similar al de otros subcampos: desde un abordaje estimulado por la historia política, la historia de la religión ha ido encontrando sus propios interrogantes, al punto de desarrollar una metodología que, sin ser original, se ha consolidado en singulares matices.
Narrative Structure of Memories in Texts of F. Werfel and A. Okopenko
Authors: Seibel N. E. , Shastina E. M.
Published: March 2021

The specificity of the narrative structure of the story, which connects the memory as an element of a fictional autobiography with the forms of a diary and a “story in a story”, which is one of the most productive in the second half of the twentieth century in German literature, is considered. Based on a fragment of the unfinished novel by F. Werfel “Sella, or the Conqueror” and the novel by A. Okopenko “Kindernatsi”, built as memories of the Anschluss and the arrival of the Nazis in Austria, the principles of organizing a multilevel system author — focalizer — actant, the purpose of which is interweaving of historical, moral and religious, moral and ethical meanings are shown. It is studied how a specific historical plot (which has a real prototypical model for the story of Werfel and an autobiographical one for Okopenko) is filled with religious and existential meanings in Werfel, becomes a reflection of the crisis of identity — a key characteristic of the Austrian mentality — in Okopenko. Particular attention is paid to artistic techniques that complicate and destroy linear narrative: duplicity, with the help of which Werfel shows different ways of solving the same moral issues, and literary editing techniques, which gives Okopenko a fragmented character to the process of recollection and allows to reveal the integrity of the author’s moral and ethical positions at the deep-semantic level.
R.A. Maslov on Franco-Burgundian Relations in the Second Half of the 15th  Century
Authors: Bessilin N. A. , Sanzharova G. F.
Published: March 2021

The characteristic of the Franco-Burgundian relations of the second half of the 15th century in the works of R. A. Maslov is considered. It is noted that the research problem does not need additional actualization: the time under study was a turning point in the history of France, the final stage in the formation of a centralized state. It is shown that the experience of many years of work of R. A. Maslov confirmed the conclusions that during several decades of the reign of Louis XI significant success was achieved in creating a modern French state, the foundations were created for the economic and political unification of its territory, for the cultural and linguistic community of the population and, accordingly, conditions are provided for the formation of the French nation. The attention of R. A. Maslov to the fact that the most important prerequisite for the formation of a nation was the achievement of political unity of the country, carried out on the basis of the creation of its economic community. It is indicated that in his studies Maslov argues the point of view according to which the fierce struggle for the elimination of feudal fragmentation reflected the process of economic consolidation of individual regions of the country into a single whole and the creation of an all-French internal market.

Published: March 2021

The impact of the 1998 financial crisis on the dynamics of market reforms and the privatization process in Russia and St. Petersburg is examined in the article. The activity of the government aimed at curbing the crisis tendencies in the first half of 1998, as well as the activity of the Cabinet of E. M. Primakov on the reanimation of the Russian economy in September — December 1998, is analyzed. The main reasons for the default, the impact of the crisis on privatization activity, the state of industrial enterprises, the banking sector, the transformation of integrated business groups, the level of welfare of the population, the state of relations “center-regions” are considered, and the social reaction to these changes is investigated. The state of the industry is revealed on the example of St. Petersburg enterprises. The approaches of the government of E. M. Primakov to the privatization policy are investigated. The features of personnel policy in the Ministry of State Property of the Russian Federation and the Committee for the Management of City Property of St. Petersburg are considered. The study of the causes and consequences of the default showed that this event became a key event in the development of the Russian economy, significantly influenced the pace of privatization activity and the state of financial and industrial groups, and also became the starting point for subsequent economic growth.
Genealogical Myth of the Buryats of the Hori Tribe: Calendar and Ritual
Authors: Dashieva N. B.
Published: March 2021

The plot of the genealogical myth of the Buryats of the Khori tribe is studied in the article as a historical and cultural source reflecting ideological attitudes, which were also a historical fact. It has been established that the myth about the origin of the Khori-Buryats is the plot of the areal cosmogonic myth. It is stated that the historical-genetic and cultural-semantic interpretation of the main events of the myth, when identified with information from archaeological, historical, ethnographic, folklore and linguistic sources, makes it possible to see in the plot of the myth the cult of the sun, the type of calendar of the solar year caused by it and the model of calendar rites of the early nomads of the steppes of Central Asia. It was revealed that the plot of the myth came to the northern shore of Lake Baikal with the carriers of the culture of tiled graves — the ethnic ancestors of the Turkic-Mongol peoples with Indo-Iranian cosmological ideas expressed in the calendar, calendar holidays, calendar rituals and calendar culture in general. It is proved that the main events of the myth are reflected in the rock paintings of the Sagan-Zaba Bay on the northern coast of Lake Baikal. It is shown that the plot of the genealogical myth of the Khori-Buryats acts as a text of culture, which is a means of preserving information about the picture of the world, which in the traditional culture of the tribe was controlled by a rite. It is noted that the historical and cultural origins of the myth go back to the archaeological Scythian-Siberian culture of the Iron Age (VI—III centuries BC).
Ethnodemography of Bashkirs in Regions of Russia (1970—2010)
Authors: Safin F. G. , Abramova S. R. , Ishemgulov M. N.
Published: March 2021

The issues of ethno-demographic and ethno-linguistic development of the Bashkir population in the regions of the Russian Federation are considered. It is noted that the tendencies of demographic processes among the Bashkirs in the regions and in the republic of the same name are very different. The features of the ethnodemographic development of the Bashkirs in the regions of their historical settlement are shown, in which general trends coincide with the demographic processes in the country as a whole. It cannot be said about the Republic of Bashkortostan, which is characterized by sharp fluctuations in the size of the titular ethnic group. The dynamics of the ethnic and linguistic identity of the Bashkir population in the regions of historical settlement is revealed in a comparative aspect with the subjects to which the Bashkirs moved at a later time and in which their number is a small proportion. The novelty of the study lies in the fact that it was the first to analyze the ethno-demographic and ethno-linguistic aspects of the development of the Bashkirs in the Russian Federation, including in the regions of their historical settlement. The relevance of the study is due to the fact that the issue of the demographic development of the Bashkir population at the present stage, especially in the republic of the same name, has acquired an ethnopolitical discourse. It has been proven that, despite the policy of reviving ethnicity and the native language, the Bashkirs, like other peoples, are gradually losing it in favor of being recognized as a native Russian.

Authors: Tatarnikova A. I.
Published: March 2021

The events in the late XIX — early XX centuries in Western Siberia, where the population survived several epidemics of cholera, typhus and typhoid fever, measles and other infectious diseases, are considered. It is noted that the sad result of the outbreak of many infections was the high epidemic mortality of the population. The activity of municipal authorities on the prevention and control of the spread of widespread diseases, the prevention of high mortality among the sick is being studied. The anti-epidemic measures taken by local authorities are analyzed: an increase in expenditures for urban improvement; the publication of mandatory sanitary regulations; creation of medical and sanitary executive commissions; division of the city territory into sections and assignment of sanitary guardians to them; arrangement of bacteriological laboratories, infectious barracks and disinfection chambers; health education of the population. The conclusion is made about positive changes in the prevention and treatment of a number of infectious diseases, the organization of sanitary supervision over the state of water supply sources, places of sale of food, the maintenance of garbage and cesspools, the dumping of sewage on strictly designated areas. At the same time, attention is drawn to the persistence of high epidemic mortality (especially infant mortality) due to the low standard of living of most of the townspeople, malnutrition, poor development of hygiene skills, lack of awareness of the causes and methods of treating diseases.

Published: March 2021

The concept of AMERICA is considered as a part of the concept sphere of Barack Obama’s linguistic personality. Special attention is paid to the structure of the AMERICA concept in B. Obama’s speeches and the nominative features of this phenomenon. The material for the study was the public policy speeches delivered by Obama at different stages of his career. Methods of conceptual, semantic and discourse analysis are used to identify the means of objectification of this concept in the speeches of the studied linguistic personality and to construct its nominative field. The AMERICA concept is proven to be one of the central components in the Barack Obama concept sphere throughout his political career. It is shown that Barack Obama’s AMERICA concept has a complex structure with a branched system of features. It is noted that it includes associations actualized by the AMERICA concept, which is part of the national picture of the world. It is revealed that the structure of this concept also includes a set of individual-author’s associations reflecting the world picture of the linguistic personality of the 44th President of the United States. The structure of the AMERICA concept with the allocation of the core, near and far periphery is described.

Manifestations of Natural Written Speech: Inscriptions on Photos
Authors: Krasovskaya N. A. , Kositsina P. Yu.
Published: March 2021

The main purpose of this article is to dwell on the consideration of some genres of natural writing. The very concept of “natural written speech” at the present time has not received a complete and comprehensive interpretation. However, recently we have come across its existence much less often. In part, the disappearance of the genres of natural writing is associated with the onset of the digital era, when people stopped writing letters to each other on paper, notes, making notes for themselves, stopped signing photographs. Many genres of writing are capable of giving an idea of the writer in the same way as varieties of oral speech. In natural written speech, some personality traits and linguistic personality are manifested. The aim of the research, presented in the article, is to analyze inscriptions on photographs from the viewpoint of their lexis, punctuation, graphical layout to define the chronotope and personal characteristics of the author, who produces this genre of written discourse. The focus is on the linguistic means of inscriptions on photos, i.e. graphic, lexical, derivational and some others. In the process of analyzing such a genre of writing as inscriptions on photographs, the main varieties of this genre were identified: inscriptions made as a memento, inscriptions that represent the definition of an event or time and place; inscriptions made to convey information to close relatives, etc. In addition, the inscriptions on photographs can be classified by keywords, if possible, determining the chronotope, by the use of graphic means, by the location of the inscription itself in the photograph. To a certain extent, the inscriptions made on photographs reflect the personality traits of a person. The analysis shows, that the inscriptions on photographs have become somewhat of a harbinger of personal pages on Instagram.

Authors: De Santiago Valenzuela José Martin , Pineda Galindo Luis Francisco , Guerrero Mancinas Zeltzin Olivia , Castro Ponce Ana Belem Clotilde , Degante Carlos Fitzner
Published: March 2021

Background:

Hepatobronchial fistula is infrequent and secondary to pyogenic abscess caused by Streptococcus intermedius. This agent causes infections such as hepatic abscesses, endocarditis, bacteremia, and others. The treatment includes drainage, antibiotic management, and surgical intervention in some cases.

Case Presentation:

We describe a case of a 50-year-old male with a pyogenic liver abscess complicated by hepatobronchial fistula, admitted to the Internal Medicine Department with fever, long-lasting chills, and weight loss. The diagnostic approach revealed a pyogenic abscess secondary to S. intermedius. After percutaneous drainage, the patient presented purulent expectoration. A cavitogram revealed a hepatobronchial fistula. Treatment with antibiotics and closure of the defect was satisfactory.

Conclusion:

This is a case of a hepatic abscess due to S. intermedius complicated with hepatobronchial fistula, a rare clinical entity; the opportune hybrid approach (surgical plus interventional and radiological) reduces the risk of a major thoracoabdominal operation, which influenced the good prognosis of our patient.

Published: March 2021

Son yirmi yılda en çok ilgi çeken gıda üretim yöntemlerinden birisi organik gıda üretimidir. Sütün organik ya da geleneksel yöntemlerle üretilip üretilmediğinin belirlenmesi, Fourier dönüşümlü kızılötesi (FTIR) spektroskopisinden daha uzun zaman alan kromatografik ve titrimetrik yöntemler ile yapılmaktadır. Bununla birlikte, literatürde organik ve geleneksel yöntemlerle üretilen gıdalar arasındaki kalite farklarıyla ilgili çelişkili sonuçlar bildirilmiştir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, organik ve geleneksel yöntemle üretilen içme sütlerinin bileşimlerindeki farklılığın tespiti için FTIR spektroskopisinin kullanılabilirliğinin değerlendirilmesidir. Araştırmada materyal olarak 185 adet (98 organik, 87 organik olmayan) pastörize tam yağlı (%3) süt numunesi, Columbus‘daki (Ohio, ABD) çeşitli marketlerden tedarik edilmiştir. Kızılötesi spektrumlar, Agilent Cary 630 FTIR spektrometresi ile 4 cm-1 çözünürlükte 4.000-700 cm-1 arasında kaydedilmiş olup spektrum analizi için Yumuşak Bağımsız Sınıf Analojileri Modellemesi (SIMCA) yapılmıştır. Görsel inceleme sonucunda 25±1Â°C‘de 185 adet süt numunesinin spektrumlarının oldukça homojen olduğu tespit edilmiştir. FTIR teknolojisi ile elde edilen spektral veriler, organik ve geleneksel yöntemle üretilen içme sütlerinin bileşim özelliklerine bağlı olarak ayırt edilebileceğini göstermiştir. FTIR spektrometresi, kromatografi gibi diğer tekniklerle karşılaştırıldığında, organik pastörize inek sütündeki tağşişin ekonomik olarak belirlenmesi için basit, hızlı ve güvenli sonuçlar veren bir tekniktir.

Published: March 2021

Bu çalışmada; ülkemizde ve dünyada en çok kullanılan bitki besleme ve toprak düzenleyici ürünlerden biri olan humik asitin üretiminde, geleneksel karıştırma metodları yerine kaotik sistemler kullanılarak, ürün kalitesi, homojenlik, zaman ve enerji tasarrufu gibi önemli kriterler açısından karıştırıcıların verimlerini arttırmak hedeflenmiştir. Kaotik sistemlerin bu özelliklerinden yola çıkılarak deneysel çalışmalar için; tüm fonksiyonları HMI (Human Machine Interface) operatör panel tarafından kontrol edilebilen, PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) kontrollü bir karıştırıcı tasarlanarak imalatı gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu karıştırıcıda, su, leonardit ve potasyum hidroksit (KOH) karıştırılarak, sıvı humik asit elde edilmiştir. Karıştırma işlemi için literatürden farklı dinamik özelliklerde kaotik sistemler seçilmiştir. Bu kaotik sistemlerin diferansiyel denklemleri, Labview programında geliştirilen bir ara yüz programında Runge Kutta 45 (RK45) sayısal çözüm algoritmasına göre çözdürülerek her kaotik sistemin kaotik zaman serisi sonuçları elde edilmiştir. Bu sonuçlar, PLC cihazına yazılan program ile frekans verilerine dönüştürülerek frekans invertörüne bağlı karıştırıcı motorun, seçilen kaotik sistemlere göre değişken hızlarda dönmesi sağlanmıştır. Aynı karışım geleneksel yöntemlerle (sabit hız) de elde edilerek, ürün kalitesi, çözünen madde oranı, pH değerleri ve toplam enerji tüketimi açısından karşılaştırmaları yapılmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre; kaotik sistemler kullanılarak yapılan karıştırmanın, ürün kalitesi, homojenlik, zaman, enerji tasarrufu gibi kriterler açısından geleneksel karıştırma yöntemlerine göre daha verimli olduğu gözlemlenmiştir.
Shikata Ga Nai: Statelessness and Sacrifice for Japanese-American Volunteers During the Second World War
Authors: Okazaki Kenzo E.
Published: March 2021

Through a Philosophical analysis of the nature of Internment Camps as well as oral histories of veterans who volunteered to serve in the US military from the camps, this paper will argue that the internment of Japanese Americans during WWII was an event that the Supreme Court and surrounding legal discourse placed outside of legal jurisdiction. Those within the camps were thus condemned to a life lacking political qualification and juridical personhood. Faced with the dangers of this condition, interned Japanese Americans who served in the U.S. Army consciously laid claim to the American political community through the sacrifice of their lives. These soldiers, therefore, performed a thoroughly political act of resistance rather than of pure patriotism.

The plaster cast model (PCM) needs to precisely reproduce the patient’s dentition to ensure optimal fit of the surgical splint; However, transporting physical models entails a risk of fracture of cusps, brackets or entire models. This study evaluated whether clinically significant differences (>1 mm) exist between the patient’s dentition and the PCM, and whether additional fractures occur from transportation from Odense, Denmark, to Rockhill, USA. This prospective study enrolled 10 orthognathic surgical patients. Three digital models were produced per patient: A direct intraoral scan, a scan of the PCM in Odense, Denmark, and a scan of the PCM at 3D Systems, Rockhill, USA. Primary outcome was distance between 2 sets of digital models. Primary predictor was transportation. The study found only 2 patients with no differences above 1 mm. Fractures occurred more often on brackets compared with teeth (Odds ratio: 5.4; P < .001). Fractures of brackets occurred twice as often on maxillary models (P = .045). Fractures occurred equally often during the 2 transportations. In conclusion, surgical splints produced from PCM could incorporate inaccuracies primarily related to the orthodontic appliances. Therefore, it is recommended to minimize model transportation before digitization and preferably use intraoral scanning to minimize errors. Key words: Orthognathic surgery, Surgical splints, dental models, digital occlusion, intraoral scanner, plaster cast model.

Inappropriate complementary feeding is among the main causes of malnutrition worldwide. However, optimal complementary feeding is an effective child survival strategy ranked among the top life-saving interventions for children under 5 years. WHO and UNICEF underline the use of available food locally produced for children less than 2 years as a significant strategy to ensure the optimal complementary feeding. Maize-Soy blend in 3/1 proportion (MASO31) is consumed as complementary food in Katanga. Nevertheless, its nutritional value isn’t known nor its adequacy as additional food. This study aimed to evaluate the nutritional value of MASO31 content according to the WHO recommendations on complementary feeding. Two samples of MASO31 formulas were taken of two different preparations, for biochemical analysis nutrients data (energy, protein, Fe, Ca, P, Zn) in the Research and Agro Alimentary Analysis Center (CRAA) of Lubumbashi. The biochemical methods used were specific to analyze each nutrient data in MASO31 such as conversion factors and KJELDHAL. Comparative analysis of «MASO31» content was done using the WHO Complementary Feeding Recommendations as gold standard. Energy and nutrients content of 100g of «MASO31» were higher than the WHO Recommendations for complementary feeding period in daily need. But, calcium and phosphorus content was lower than the recommendations and needed improvements. The number of times that was proposed by ACANUDE NGO for «MASO31» to be fed is similar to the WHO recommendations on meal frequency in complementary feeding. MASO31 may be recommended in complementary feeding in DRC but calcium and phosphorus content should be enriched. Key words: Adequate complementary food, Complementary feeding, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Local complementary food and Nutritional value.

A number of requirements are imposed on the activities of teachers in military schools due to certain restrictions, official relations, which are based on the principles of centralization and unity of command. The purpose of the study is to determine the value foundations and value-semantic components of professional and pedagogical activity of a military university teacher. A theoretical study made it possible to establish reasons that affect the activities nature of a military university teacher. They are associated with a change in value orientations in society and the army. The rethinking of the traditional values of military service and officers is indicated. For the successful organization of professional and pedagogical activity of military university teachers, understanding of changes in norms, values, discourse and military professional and pedagogical activity is also required. The importance of the teacher’s personality, his unique professional and human qualities, as well as those values that he himself follows and broadcasts to cadets is emphasized. The results of axiological analysis show that the values of professional and pedagogical activity of teachers of a military university are a well-established system of attitudes, informed representations, which ensures the choice of strategies for professional behavior of teachers of a military university, its stability and continuity. This system is holistic in nature and acts as a cognitively functioning system that determines the relationship between the prevailing views on the problems of military education, the requirements of military service and the teacher professional and pedagogical activity. Under the conditions of irreversible axiological changes, the work of a teacher at a military university is becoming more and more complicated. Values are manifested in the style of teachers professional and pedagogical activity, the nature of the relationship built by teachers. The values of professional pedagogical activity are formed on the basis of ethical standards, moral and ethical guidelines, attitudes that exist in the professional pedagogical community of military university teachers.

The revolutionary development of innovations in pedagogical science, due to the fundamental tendencies of social life, the expansion of the sphere of contacts between peoples and states within the framework of globalization and internationalization, implies significant changes in the field of basic general education as a strategically important area of the state policy of the Russian Federation, providing for the creation of a competent person and focuses on the need for the formation of communicative-compensatory competence of students of the basic school and the creation of a pedagogical system, the introduction of which will ensure the availability of a system of knowledge, skills, personal qualities that allows integrating strategic moves in the process of communicative interaction that are adequate to the communication situation that contributes to the positive effectiveness of intercultural contact. The developed pedagogical system for the formation of the communicative-compensatory competence of students of the primary school is regulated by the social order and educational normative documents reflected in the normative block; is built on a complementary basis of systemic, competency-based and participatory approaches; consists of five interconnected blocks (motivational-targeted, organizational-substantive, operational-activity and reflective-diagnostic); functions taking into account the basic principles (consciousness, science, accessibility, activity, strength, visibility) and specific principles (emergence, overcoming sociocultural interference, software combination, interactive didactization, personal-vector reception). The main goal of the author’s system is to diagnose a high strategically productive level of formation of communicative-compensatory competence, which will provide students with the knowledge and skills to conduct a constructive dialogue, tolerate the views of a communication partner, understand and adequately interpret the communication situation that has arisen directing her to a productive result. The results of the experimental work and a comparative analysis of the dynamics of the results of primary school students, as well as their diagnosis by the methods of mathematical statistics, showed a significant improvement in the level of formation of communicative-compensatory competence, which indicates the effectiveness of the implementation of the developed system.
GUIDELINES OF SPIRITUAL AND MORAL EDUCATION SYSTEM OF PRIMARY SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN IN THE WRITINGS OF V.V. ZENKOVSKY
Authors:   Ryazan State University after S.A. Yesenin, Ryazan, Russia, Lebedeva O.S.
Published: March 2021

In modern society, spiritual and moral education is one of the relevant areas in the field of education. Problems in the field of education, associated with the lack of, first of all, a unified ideology, were the basis for studying the established approaches to understanding the subject and content of education. Research and retrospective analysis of the philosophical and pedagogical heritage of the great Russian teacher, psychologist and theologian of the twentieth century V.V. Zenkovsky about the process of spiritual and moral formation of the personality of a child of primary school age made it possible to highlight his fundamental ideas of education. Spiritual and moral development of a personality in Zenkovsky’s pedagogy is impossible without the formation of moral principles in it, where the sphere of “spirituality” is the highest value of a person, the formation and correction of which goes beyond the framework of rational understanding. The basis of such a development of the child is the Christian-humanistic tradition, in which the spiritual and moral personality is integral, free, aware of the unity of the Creator and creation, and sees his life’s destiny in the continuation of God’s creation. Thus, for the theory of the education of Zenkovsky of primary school children, the fact that only moral education, filled with religious meaning, forms the true spiritual order of the child, is essential.
