This is the first part of an article dealing with an evaluation of the dramatherapy process. The first part introduces a long-term research project assessing the dramatherapy process at the 17B Addiction Recovery Unit of the Kroměříž Psychiatric Hospital. Building on therapeutic community principles, the treatment provided at the Unit is a medium-term addiction recovery programme (4 to 6 months). The part of the research discussed in this paper is focused on an evaluation of the dramatherapy process as seen by alumni (abstainers), who received therapy at the Unit between February 2014 and June 2017. The data was collected from semi-structured focus groups organized as part of alumni meetings at the Unit. The findings of the focus group analysis will be presented in the second part of the article. They are designed to describe the specific benefits of dramatherapy intervention in the treatment of addictions and the potential of the transfer of experience, obtained in dramatherapy interventions, for the abstainer's daily life from the perspective of alumni.

Published: July 2018

A espécie de cogumelo comestível Pleurotus ostreatus, popularmente conhecido como shimeji ou Hiratake, tem a capacidade de secretar enzimas especializadas que degradam materiais ricos em lignina e celulose, transformando esses compostos em fonte nutricional para o seu desenvolvimento. Utilizam-se diferentes resíduos orgânicos para o cultivo de P. ostreatus, como a palha de arroz, palha de feijão, capim-elefante, entre outros. Entretanto, há poucos estudos sobre a utilização de sobra de alimentos para o cultivo deste cogumelo. A utilização destes resíduos para o cultivo pode vir a se tornar uma maneira efetiva e sustentável de produção, reduzindo custos e o impacto ambiental da extração de outros materiais orgânicos rotineiramente usados, tais como bagaço de cana-de-açúcar, palhas e capins. Portanto, objetivou-se no presente trabalho estudar a viabilidade de uso de um composto à base de sobra de alimentos em diferentes proporções (T1=0%, T2=5%, T3=10%, T4=15% e T5=20%) para o cultivo de uma linhagem de P. ostreatus, tendo como critérios avaliativos a caracterização química dos substratos, a perda de matéria orgânica e a eficiência biológica. O tratamento 1 teve produção média de 333 g por pacote, o tratamento 2 de 274 g, o tratamento 3 de 217 g, o tratamento 4 de128 g e o tratamento 5 de 113 g. A análise dos substratos indicou uma crescente relação de carbono e nitrogênio com o aumento da proporção do composto de sobras de alimentos utilizado, refletindo no declínio da produtividade de cada tratamento, o que indica que a utilização deste material não foi eficiente para fins de produção.

Authors: Rendón Campo Luis Fernando
Published: July 2018

La ciudad de Cali, Colombia, se caracteriza por un desarrollo urbanístico asimétrico donde alternan zonas de pobreza y riqueza extremas, con sus variaciones en el perfil de morbimortalidad. La Secretaria de Salud Municipal ha desarrollado un proyecto de fortalecimiento de la atención primaria en salud en 11 territorios seleccionados por sus condiciones de riesgo y ha desplegado un trabajo de campo para caracterizar las familias en sus riesgos individuales, familiares y comunitarios. Materiales y métodos: La información se recolectó a partir de la sistematización de una ficha familiar que contiene información sobre características de la vivienda, datos demográficos de las familias, la presencia de riesgos en salud y la asistencia a programas de promoción y protección específica. Se establecieron las prevalencias para los factores de riesgo y sus intervalos de confianza. Resultados: Se recolectó información de 7.419 familias en el año 2013 y 2.065 en el 2014 que agrupan a cerca de 36.000 personas. Las prevalencias más significativas se encontraron para la inasistencia a los programas de crecimiento y desarrollo (26%), mujeres sin asistencia al programa de planificación familiar (52%), sobrepeso (38%) y personas con glucometrías alteradas (33%). En relación con los riesgos del hábitat se encontró un promedio de 13% de viviendas en malas condiciones estructurales y de higiene y un hacinamiento del 8,3%. A través de estos indicadores se establece un perfil de riesgos en las familias para la intervención por parte de la red de servicios.

Las infecciones respiratorias agudas representan uno de los principales problemas de salud pública en menores de 5 años, que genera entre el 50% y 70% de todas las consultas, y entre 30% y 60% de todas las hospitalizaciones. La estrategia Atención Integral para las Enfermedades Prevalentes de la Infancia (AIEPI) es una herramienta validada a nivel mundial y adoptada en Colombia que permite avanzar en la respuesta y solución a los problemas en esta población. En un estudio observacional descriptivo a través de la revisión de 58 historias clínicas, se evaluó la atención de los menores de 5 años, hospitalizados en una institución de nivel II con diagnóstico de neumonía. Como resultados se evidencia la no adherencia a la guía AIEPI, específicamente en la clasificación de la enfermedad, el antibiótico utilizado intra y extrahospitalariamente, las dosis utilizadas y las recomendaciones impartidas a los cuidadores. Lo anterior establece la necesidad de seguir trabajando en esta problemática que permita impactar la morbimortalidad infantil, así como disminuir el número de hospitalizaciones, complicaciones, y por ende el costo en la atención

Tromboprofilaxis en cirugía ginecológica laparoscópica
Authors: Narváez Ortega Gilzan Javier
Published: July 2018

Dentro de los eventos tromboembólicos considerados están: la trombosis venosa profunda y el embolismo pulmonar, principales complicaciones que se pueden presentar durante y después de una cirugía ginecológica, por vía abierta o laparoscópica. Existe incertidumbre sobre el riesgo atribuido de tromboembolismo venoso después de procedimientos laparoscópicos, siendo controvertida la recomendación de tromboprofilaxis en este campo. El American College of Chest Physicians y el American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologist sugieren la clasificación de riesgo en 4 categorías: bajo, medio, alto y muy alto de las pacientes programadas para cirugía ginecológica. El riesgo de evento tromboembólico va a depender del tipo de procedimiento, tiempo quirúrgico, edad y la presencia de otros factores de riesgo. Hasta tener mayor evidencia, las pacientes llevadas a cirugía laparoscópica deberán ser estratificadas por categoría de riesgo y proveer profilaxis similar a pacientes llevadas a laparotomía. En mujeres de alto riesgo (mayores de 60 años, historia de trombosis venosa profunda, embolismo pulmonar o cáncer) se pueden beneficiar de la profilaxis dual y de prolongar su profilaxis hasta por 28 días.

Published: July 2018

Introducción: La rehabilitación y habilitación visual y auditiva que realiza el INCS es un proceso de atención integral que utiliza estrategias de orientación, educación y asesoría familiar. El apoyo familiar en la rehabilitación del niño con discapacidad visual o auditiva, es un eje fundamental en el acompañamiento y como red de apoyo, con la cual el equipo de profesionales trabaja de una manera transversal promoviendo el empoderamiento y participación encaminada hacia la corresponsabili-dad con el proceso. Materiales y métodos: Con el objetivo de mejorar la integración entre la familia y el equipo de salud se aplicó la valoración APGAR familiar, permitiendo la identificación de las familias con problemáticas de conflictos o disfunciones familiares que requieran un replanteamiento en su intervención. La población de estudio correspondió a 141 niños que se matricularon en la Unidad de Rehabilitación en el año 2014 y se compara con igual medición un año después. Resultados: Se constató que de las 68 familias clasificadas con buena función familiar en el año 2014, el 85% conservó esta clasificación. De igual forma, siete familias con disfunción familiar leve pasaron a tener una mejor clasificación en el 2015 y dos familias con disfunción moderada mejoraron a la clasificación leve. Algo relevante si se tiene en cuenta que con las herramientas utilizadas para construir el perfil de riesgo, se pudo identificar qué familias tenían una mayor vulnerabilidad social y hacer un mejor seguimiento desde el abordaje de la familia como dinamizador del proceso y garante de derechos de su hijo.

Authors: Grandas Ramírez Ángela Liliana , Munévar Munévar Dora Inés
Published: July 2018

Introducción: Las Naciones Unidas proponen transversalizar la discapacidad bajo los principios de derecho, integralidad y congruencia, basándose en el modelo social de la discapacidad. Esta desde la perspectiva interseccional evoca un conjunto de debates teóricos y de recorridos empíricos realizados durante la ejecución de la investigación de maestría titulada “La discapacidad en perspectiva interseccional, una ruta para transversalizar la inclusión epistémica en pregrados de odontología”. El objetivo es considerar la discapacidad en perspectiva interseccional como una vía para hacer su inclusión en términos epistémicos. Metodología: Investigación cualitativa, herramientas como los cuestionarios en línea dirigido a autoridades y profesores de facultades de odontología latinoamericanas, colombianas y de la Universidad Nacional de Colombia (UN) y multigrupos de estudiantados y personal administrativo de la Facultad de Odontología (UN). Resultados: Con la incorporación de la perspectiva interseccional se visibiliza las desigualdades y discriminaciones vividas por las personas con discapacidad; así, la discapacidad no va a seguir siendo un objeto de estudio como diagnóstico, la presencia de las personas invita a que se les reconozca como productoras de saberes y valores, un paso indispensable para garantizar la justicia epistemológica; el proceso investigativo repiensa la formación crítica en este tema entre las nuevas generaciones de odontólogos. Las conclusiones señalan las rutas a corto, mediano y largo plazo para que los saberes sobre la discapacidad dispongan de lugares curriculares y extracurriculares que garanticen su enseñanza tanto en aulas, laboratorios y clínicas como en el trabajo con las comunidades y en la ampliación de las investigaciones.

Dengue fever is a life-threatening viral infection that has been a public health problem. It is estimated that almost more than one half of the world population live in countries where dengue fever is endemic. Among affected individuals, about 5% develop the fatal dengue shock syndrome and dengue hemorrhagic fever, and almost 20,000 patients die annually with these conditions. Despite the magnitude of the problem, dengue fever is a preventable disease. Prevention can be carried out by elimination of inhabitant mosquitoes, vaccination of vulnerable individuals, and regular health education particularly during outbreaks. Many literatures studies were conducted to evaluate the impact of healthcare education on dengue fever prevention, and many researchers studied the population awareness and attitudes about the disease. Knowledge and awareness varied among different studies, and some factors were reported to influence this knowledge such as gender, socioeconomic status, level of education, and computer literacy. The attitudes also differed among the studies and did not seem to be correlated with the population knowledge about the disease. This article will review the knowledge, awareness, and attitudes among different countries towards dengue fever outbreaks in the summer.

MAINTAINING OR NEGOTIATING IDENTITY: THE SOCIO-POLITICAL DYNAMICS OF COMMUNITY MOSQUES IN MALANG, EAST JAVA, INDONESIA
Authors: Putrie Yulia Eka , Martokusumo Widjaja , Budi Bambang Setia
Published: July 2018

The contemporary dynamics of mosque development in Indonesia is closely related to the socio-political dynamics of various Islamic groups or organizations such as Nahdlatul Ulama, Muhammadiyah, etc. A great number of mosques in Indonesia have been built by Muslim communities affiliated to one of these Islamic groups. In this case, mosque architecture can be considered as one means of expression of the communities’ specific identities which derived from their particular perspectives on the ideal picture of a mosque. However, there is also another case where a mosque is built by a heterogeneous Muslim community. In this context, the image of an ideal mosque becomes the object of negotiations among the diverse affiliated members. This paper discusses to what extent these socio-political dynamics affect the identity representation of community mosques in Malang, one of the regions in East Java where the dynamic interactions among various Islamic groups take place. The result shows that the attempts to represent identity in the community mosques are related to the socio-political dynamic of the Muslim communities. In the mosques of the specific groups, some architectural elements, such as the iconographic ornaments and colors, the spatial arrangement, and the specific features are maintained to represent their specific identities. However, in the mosques of the heterogeneous Muslim communities, these elements are negotiated and challenged by the community members. These negotiations could result, whether in the mutual understanding and tolerance, or in the space claim attempts by the dominant group through the domination of the activity systems, the role restrictions, and the physical control over the mosque.

LANGUAGE AND THOUGHT
Authors: Gaidenko I. O.
Published: July 2018

The article is aimed at the problem of language-thought interrelation which has always been of great interest to philosophers and linguists as the former is inconceivable without the latter; thus, language and thought are inseparable. Although the question of language-thought interconnection has been studied by many linguists, there is no generally accepted approach to the distinction of their interdependence and convergence. One approach to the problem, for instance, relies on regarding “language as thought and thought as language” (M. Müller), the other approach, which the article is focused on, consists in underlying their inequality even though they form organic unity (A. Potebnya). Scientific works of distinguished linguists about thought objectification have been investigated. The issues of language-experience and language-culture interrelation as well as their correspondence to the subject of the article have been analyzed. Relation of the first type is of primary significance since experience is fundamental to formation of knowledge and, therefore, culture as well as words that constitute language classes. Being component part of a specific language class each word possesses the meaning somehow connected with the type of experience the class describes; the name of the class is also general and applicable to each of its constituents. Accumulated knowledge and experience are shared by means of words, i.e. objectified in language units. Full objectification is only possible when words are combined together into meaningfully complete patterns, which makes language a communication tool. As communication may be of verbal and non-verbal forms, it cannot equate with language; however, human language and

Personality development is considered to be one of the most important issues in modern society. Schools play crucial role in career learning and development therefore they have to provide pupils opportunities to experience the world of work. To ensure that education in England meets current needs of young people the Government is taking necessary steps to increase career understanding and future employability. This paper deals with the development of specialized education in England. It highlights current options for the students’ successful progress in the future. To the extent that career learning and development have become a vital component of secondary school curriculum the paper focuses on the process of work-related learning and career education in England. It also observes modern approaches to specialized education and analyses the development of City Technology Colleges of England which have become a successful combination of academic learning and vocational training. It is pointed to the fact that local business and industries play an important role in majority of CTC decisions including financial support and curriculum planning. The peculiarities of career learning and developing in City Technology Colleges are examined and the innovative concept of skill-based learning that provides proper working conditions for future specialists is discussed.

Published: July 2018

The article deals with the role of information technologies in learning foreign languages. The paper states the great importance of IT in the learning process as well as in the process of raising motivation among students to a higher level. It also describes different multimedia methods among which the outline of video lessons, role-playing game lessons, distance learning and project based learning have the leading role. The article also points out that due to the application of multimedia technologies the possibilities of modern methods of learning foreign language are considerably broadened and diversified. The content of lessons with the help of IT is enriched, the rate of realization is high, and a teacher gets the possibility to use educational time more effectively, to invent the original methods of teaching and increase the volume of educational material for students' mastering and usage.The article analyses various language activity categories with the help of different types of modern technologies and their positive effect on language learning efficiency.It also states that the application of multimedia materials and computer networks abbreviates time of studies by almost three times, and the level of memorizing through the simultaneous use of images, sound and text is 30-40 percent more. Due to the use of multimedia means, students perfect all aspects of language: phonetic, grammatical, lexical and communicative. This allows mastering language material, language skills and abilities more effective and quicker.
SPECIAL FEATURES OF INDIVIDUAL LEARNING SYSTEMS FROM THE WORLDVIEW PERSPECTIVE

Published: July 2018

In the article, it is noted that, as of today, sciences that study human learning behavior have spawned a great number of various theoretical approaches each offering its own view on how the learning process takes place, what factors and to what extent affect this process. There is, nevertheless, a consensus among scientists that different people gravitate to their own preferable individual learning styles and that educational process is more effective when teachers adapt their teaching methods and techniques to their students’ individual learning styles. Teachers have difficulty orienting themselves among a vast variety of theories and deciding which type of learning is more appropriate for each specific student or group and which method or type of teaching to use in the work with them. It is suggested that the psychological construct of “worldview” enables teachers to develop a viable approach to establishing the guidelines and criteria for making such a decision. In the article, a brief overview of the existing paradigms and theories as well as of the corresponding types of learning is provided; the conceptual foundations of modern approaches to the study of worldviews are delineated; a worldview approach to systemization of types of learning and their application based on C. Graves’s theory is put forward.

Published: July 2018

The article describes the system of higher education in Switzerland which is funded by private sector. Swiss higher education follows the three-tiered structure of Bachelor’s, Master’s and doctoral studies (with PhD titles being reserved to federal institutes of technology and cantonal universities). All the universities are divided into federal institutes of technology (namely Swiss Federal Institute of Technology and Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne), cantonal universities (there are ten of them), universities of teacher education (comprising fourteen UTEs and four other teacher training institutions such as the Swiss Federal Institute for Vocational Education and Training and the Swiss Federal Institute of Sports Magglingen) and universities of applied sciences (providing 300 degree programmes). In Switzerland traditional institutions are centered on basic research, while others are based on applied research. Courses at the graduate level are taught in English. Structure of the studies depends on faculty involved. For instance, almost all disciplines require 8-9 semesters to graduate. The system of higher education in Switzerland is deeply integrated into European one. It provides universities with range of opportunities to collaborate with other outstanding universities all over the world. Also the benefits of such system of higher education are described.
TEACHING TECHNICAL WRITING AS PART OF ESP
Authors: Lubianova O. V.
Published: July 2018

The paper suggests theoretical and practical perspectives and directions for future research of technical writing with reference to specific industry standards of higher education in Ukraine (educational qualification specification for Bachelor’s program), requirements of ESP (English for specific purposes) and Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. The paper discusses skills, abilities and competences needed for technical writing in higher technical university. It reflects main stages, content, forms and methods of teaching technical writing. The main objective in this case is to increase the global competitiveness of graduates on the IT market, which should include the most optimal ways of training. The concept of “technical writing” is defined. The focus of the paper is on compositional and semantic structure of technical writing (methods of professional presentation of information); graphical level of information presentation; language peculiarities: lexical level, grammatical level. Profound knowledge of foreign language can help implement such aspects of the professional activity as the introduction of new technologies, trends in the development of science and technology, the successful performance of professional functions, exchange of experience and establishing business contacts with foreign partners. This makes the need for studying technical writing urgent not only because of the lack of appropriate training and reference materials, but also because of the importance of qualitative education and training of future IT specialists.
Non-Destructive System Based on Electrical Tomography and Machine Learning to Analyze Moisture of Buildings

Published: July 2018

The article presents the results of research on a new method of spatial analysis of walls and buildings moisture. Due to the fact that destructive methods are not suitable for historical buildings of great architectural significance, a non-destructive method based on electrical tomography has been adopted. A hybrid tomograph with special sensors was developed for the measurements. This device enables the acquisition of data, which are then reconstructed by appropriately developed methods enabling spatial analysis of wet buildings. Special electrodes that ensure good contact with the surface of porous building materials such as bricks and cement were introduced. During the research, a group of algorithms enabling supervised machine learning was analyzed. They have been used in the process of converting input electrical values into conductance depicted by the output image pixels. The conductance values of individual pixels of the output vector made it possible to obtain images of the interior of building walls, both flat intersections (2D) and spatial (3D) images. The presented group of algorithms has a high application value. The main advantages of the new methods are: high accuracy of imaging, low costs, high processing speed, ease of application to walls of various thickness and irregular surface. By comparing the results of tomographic reconstructions, the most efficient algorithms were identified.
