The most significant challenge in the 21st century is to prepare professionals to communicate technical information well through writing and speaking in the professional context. Research and studies on TC started to emerge in various aspects, but there is still scarcity in studies on curriculum design of TC. This paper explored the needs of curriculum design for TC at vocational colleges. The study was conducted in two steps: online questionnaires (n = 580) for students and semi-structured interviews (n=8) for English instructors at vocational colleges in the Central Part of China. The results showed that the manufacturing students had been taught less related TC skills in English subject, especially oral TC skills; however, the skills they most want to improve are team communication skills and oral TC skills. The findings also indicated that the current existing English courses in TVET institutions are irrelevant to TC skills on the one hand, but both the students and English instructors highly valued the importance of the TC module on the other hand. The findings from the current study serve as a basis for the curriculum design for TVET students. Further, this study may also contribute to the under-researched issue of English language learning in TVET institutions.

Low Socioeconomic Status (SES) predisposes one to vulnerability as it entangles many challenges such as financial and low opportunities. Youths from low socioeconomic backgrounds often encounter steep adversities that may potentially halt their educational pursuits. Without the right and necessary empowerment coined as skill development within the high school system, these youths may remain vulnerable to poverty, socially reliant and dependent on government support and grants. Therefore, the researchers propose a paradigm shift in the South African educational system to ensure that these learners do not lag behind in their learning. An effective program that will target their academic and practical skills needs is necessary to motivate them to learn and empower them to achieve financial independence, self-reliance, and productivity. Skills development in TVET will be the glue between their education and the world of work for these learners. Thus, the purpose of the study was to advocate for TVET provision as an empowering tool to elevate the Socioeconomic Status of the learners from a low socioeconomic background at a Johannesburg school. The target population was youths from a low socioeconomic background. The sample size was determined by availability of participants and manpower, thus the seven participants used whom were all from a school that caters for vulnerable learners. A purposive sampling was enforced for accurate representation of the population. Data collected through qualitative methods were properly analysed through thematic analysis. The findings of this study indicate a need for implementation and acquisition of skills through Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) to break the chain of poverty and propel these youths to a better future and more fulfilled lives.

Authors: Ansori Ansori , Fahrurrazi Fahrurrazi
Published: July 2022

Arabic and Indonesian have different constructions in the formation of the verb tenses. The purpose of this study is to describe the process of formation of tense verbs in Arabic and Indonesian, to analyze the differences in the formation of tenses between the two languages. The method used in this research is qualitative with contrastive analysis. The results of this study describe the formation of Arabic tense verbs through internal modification and affixation, while the formation of Indonesian verbs is realized lexically. The difference between the two is that the formation of verbs in Arabic is always related to time, quantity, and gender differences, are expressed grammatically through verbs changes, while the formation of verbs in Indonesian is not related to time, and gender thus expressing the semantic concepts of time, quantity, and gender are lexically represented by accompanying verbs to form verb phrases without changing their verb forms.

THE “PROSVITA” FELLOWSHIP CENTRES OF THE KONOTOP COUNTY IN 1917-1923
Authors: Артюх В’ячеслав
Published: July 2022

The article covers the peculiarity of activities and the emergence of the “Prosvita” fellowship centres on the territory of the modern Konotop district of the Sumy region during the period of the Ukrainian revolution (1917–1921) and the first years of the Soviet state. Such forms of activities of the fellowship as organizing the primary education, conducting theatre performances, maintaining educational libraries, forming the historical consciousness and creating the image of the poet Taras Shevchenko as a “father” of the Ukrainian nation are examined within the article. The national character of the fellowship is emphasized in the current publication. The fact that the “Prosvita” fellowship centres in Konotop county were established right after the Ukrainian Central Rada emergence in Kyiv is stated. During the period of UNR the “Prosvita” fellowship centres of the Konotop county eagerly supported the revolutionary parliament of Ukraine and its policy. Actually they were the representative centres of the Ukrainian Central Rada in the region. Concerning the relationship of the “Prosvita” fellowship with the Bolshevik authorities the article defines that the latest, though considering the fellowship centres anti-revolutionary, did not counteract their activities in the first half of 1919. The occupation of the region by the Russian Denikin Voluntary army caused the escalation of the repressions against the members of the fellowship. Since the middle 1920 the Bolshevik authorities began the practice of state controlling. Due to the activity of the Bolshevik political education 42 organizations had been established on the territory of the modern Konotop county by the beginning of 1922. The articles comes to the conclusion that during its short seven year history (1917–1923) the “Prosvita” fellowship of the Konotop county provided the cultural ascension which accompanied national-liberation struggles of the Ukrainian people. Moreover, the “Prosvita” movement turned into the main organizational form of engaging the vast strata of the society into the active participation in that process.
THE ROLE OF THE GUARD IN THE "PALACE COUP" IN THE RUSSIAN EMPIRE (1725 – 1762)

Published: July 2022

It is difficult to fully understand the period in the history of the Russian Empire called the "palace coups" from Peter I to Paul I, and even to Nicholas II, without considering in detail the political history of the guard. That is why the article describes the era of "palace coups" (1725–1762) in the Russian Empire, their preconditions and reasons. The author notes that the XVIII century is one of the most interesting periods in the history of the Russian state represented by the time of palace coups. This period is characterized by constant struggle in the middle of aristocratic groups and many behind-the-scenes intrigues. As the law was not a priority at that time, political issues were usually decided by the ruling force. The article notes that the frequent change of power in the Russian Empire in the eighteenth century. Was violent, not public. And such a force during the n "palace coup" was represented by a privileged part of the regular army organized by Peter I, namely two Guards regiments - Preobrazhensky and Semenovsky, to them during the reign of Anna Johannovna added two others - infantry Izmailovsky and Horse Guards. The Guard played an active role in all the political changes of the eighteenth century, when questions arose about the succession to the throne. No change of emperors on the throne during the 38-year period took place without her active participation. The article analyzes the evolution of the transformation of a privileged part of the regular Russian army - the Guards, into a powerful political force. The author emphasizes that the military influence of the Guards regiments does not increase due to "loud" victories, but on the contrary, the lack of successful military campaigns leads to a change in the vectors of the Guards. After the Poltava victory and the Prut defeat for many years of the XVIII century, the guard did not take much part in hostilities. Surprisingly, politics became the main sphere of activity of the Guards. Thus, the eighteenth century was a time of political instability in the country, various noble groups tried to realize their interests with the help of weak and limited in power rulers, whom they also elected. That is why the author tries to determine the main consequences of strengthening the political role of the guard in the Russian Empire.
MIGRATION AND SETTLEMENT OF BULGARIANS IN THE TERRITORY OF BESSARABIA IN THE 30-50s. of XIX CENTURY
Authors:   Сумський державний педагогічний університет імені А.С. Макаренка, Турков Володимир
Published: July 2022

The article is devoted to the fact that the Russo - Turkish war of 1828–1829 led to the mass resettlement of Bulgarians in Bessarabia, which was part of the Russian Empire since 1812. Transdanubian settlers received 50 dess. of land per family. The Bulgarians became colonists. Their legal status was enshrined in the "Charter of Foreign Colonies in the Empire." They were subordinated to the Trusteeship Committee for Foreign Immigrants of the Southern Territory of Russia and the Office for Transdanubian Immigrants. They had the opportunity to buy land outside the colonies, to engage in handicrafts and trade. The Bulgarians were released from military service. At the same time, the tsarist government paid little attention to the education of Transdanubian settlers, without allocating funds from the state budget. The education of the children of the Bessarabian Bulgarians was entrusted directly to the colonial societies. The Crimean War of 1853–1856 changed the position of the Bulgarians. Many of them voluntarily joined the Russian army to fight against foreign invaders. The Bulgarians defended Sevastopol, took part in the siege of the Turkish fortress of Silistria, and carried out a border guard in the ranks of the Danube Cossack army. Transdanubian settlers donated food and raised money for military needs. Russia's defeat in the Crimean War had a negative effect on their future because according to Article XXI of the Paris Peace Treaty, the three southern counties of Bessarabia came under the jurisdiction of the Principality of Moldavia. Outside Russia, there were 40 colonies with a population of 22,365 people. Thanks to the efforts of the Russian authorities, from 1857 to 1860 only 500 families of Bulgarian colonists returned to the land of their second homeland. Transdanubian migrants who remained within Russia found themselves in a difficult economic situation due to the severance of economic ties associated with the new border division. In addition, they had to provide apartments to Cossack troops and border guards. Despite all the difficulties, the Bulgarians remained colonists. The Russian government retained this status, hoping to attract new Slavic settlers from the Balkan possessions of the Ottoman Empire.
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE REMNANTS OF PAGANISM IN SPIRITUAL CULTURE AND REGULATION OF PUBLIC RELATIONS OF THE ZAPOROZHYA SICH
Authors:   Сумський державний педагогічний університет імені А. С. Макаренка, Литвиновська Юлія
Published: July 2022

In this article the author considers the influence of pagan beliefs on culture, spiritual life and legal regulation of the Zaporozhian Sich. It is a well-known fact that the Cossacks were Orthodox, but some aspects of their lives were significantly influenced by the remnants of the so-called "ancient" beliefs that have been passed down from the people for many generations. Therefore, the article pays considerable attention to the description of the culture of characterization and Cossack law, it would seem that these aspects of life have nothing in common, but it is on their example that the author shows the influence of pagan traditions. After all, the Orthodox Church itself accused the characters of sorcery, because their image was often mystified by the people, the characters were endowed with extraordinary abilities, such as the ability to reincarnate, heal, not breathe underwater, not to die from ordinary weapons. It is said that such extraordinary abilities were given to them by the forces of nature and were often associated with magic. Another aspect of the social life of the Cossacks were the legal norms governing relations. Undoubtedly, the influence of both neighboring states and the Christian religion had a significant effect on the Cossack courts, but in some situations the influence of customary law is clearly felt. Cossack courts are known for the cruelty of their sentences, and in many cases the perpetrators atoned for their guilt with blood, as this was considered just retribution. Trials also took place mostly not according to written laws, but according to customs passed down from generation to generation and even often took the form of proverbs. The author presents the opinions of various scholars on the religious influence on the daily life of the Zaporozhian Sich. Proponents of the traditional school rule out paganism, relying solely on the fact that the Cossacks were officially Orthodox Christians and well-known defenders of the church. However, there are a number of other opinions, such as proponents of ethnohistoricism, who argue that many Cossack traditions are transformations of pagan rites that have indeed changed as a result of the influence of Christianity and foreign states influenced by Ukrainian lands. Of course, this trend does not have enough official documentary sources, but it is now becoming widespread in online communities among history buffs.
THEORETICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL PATTERNS NONLINEAR CLEARING OF SOCIAL SYSTEMS AND THE HISTORICAL PROCESS

Published: July 2022

The article through the prism of self-organization theory and nonlinear approach is carried out analysis of the basic principles of science postnonclassical and their extrapolation of a different nature. Particular attention is paid to the principle of non-linearity and stochastic bifurcation transitions in the social and natural structures. Specificity of determinism and indeterminism ratio in these periods. The author proves the thesis that the formation of a non-linear way of thinking does not mean the end of the old scientific paradigm and the limits of the classical picture of the world, and we are talking about some methodological synthesis within the modern picture of the world, which is carried out in a non-linear worldview. It is established that history is a complex open system, the stability of which is constantly violated under the influence of both internal and external factors that are sources of selfdevelopment of the system. The historical process is determined by two opposite tendencies - the tendency of entropy, destruction and the tendency of negentropy, creation. These two tendencies form, respectively, the bifurcation and evolutionary trajectories of society. Nonlinear vision of trends in social development, structuring the ordering of the social system raises the question of the impossibility of a single, ideal, universal social order. The theory of self-organization opens the way to understanding the alternative of history, because at the points of historical turning points due to the purposeful will of historical subjects is a choice from a range of possibilities.

Pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) is a chemical substance which is largely used for the induction of seizure and epilepsy in the animal model, and it can also, disrupts free radicals balance and cause oxidative stress in the body with a negative impact on memory and learning. In this study, the medicinal plant Buxus hyrcana, was used to evaluate its effect on oxidative stress and memory deficit caused by PTZ in the rats. Twenty-four rats were randomly allocated to 4 groups: control negative under treatment with PTZ (sub-threshold dose 35 mg/kg for one month), control positive under treatment with phenobarbital (PB-30 mg/kg), and two PTZ groups under treatment with B. hyrcana extract (BHE-300, and -600 mg/kg). Standard passive avoidance test was used to evaluate retention and recall (evaluation of memory and learning). After behavioral evaluation, rats were anesthetized, brains were removed, and following preparation of brain homogenates, oxidative stress was evaluated using specified methods. Step-through latency in passive avoidance test in the BHE receiving group was greater than PTZ group (p<0.001). In addition, brain lipid peroxidation malondialdehyde (MDA) and nitric oxide (NO) level in BHE-treated group was significantly lower (p<0.001) and the reduced glutathione (GSH) activity levels were significantly greater versus PTZ group (p<0.001). Our results showed that BHE could prevent memory deficit and ameliorate oxidative stress in the PTZ-kindled rats.

Esto es debido a la señalización que ejerce a nivel hipotalámico produciendo un estímulo de saciedad, balance en el gasto de energía, y un adecuado control del peso corporal. En los últimos años, se ha reportado un aumento en la mortalidad asociada con obesidad en población mexicana, posicionando a esta enfermedad como una de las principales causas, debido al desarrollo de comorbilidades asociadas a su patología. Se ha estudiado la participación de la leptina como una hormona pleiotrópica con propiedades cruciales para el desarrollo de sobrepeso y obesidad. Se ha observado que las alteraciones en su receptor predisponen a una resistencia a la leptina condicionando una respuesta pobre en la estimulación de la saciedad y, a su vez, un aumento en el consumo de alimentos. Otros estudios sugieren que las dietas con un alto contenido calórico producen una hiperactivación en la corteza cerebral asociada al sentido del gusto, generando un estímulo de recompensa que induce a un mayor consumo de alimentos, llevando paulatinamente a un incremento del tejido adiposo en el organismo. Investigaciones realizadas mediante la aplicación de leptina exógena en ratones han registrado una disminución transitoria del peso corporal con una disminución en el consumo de alimentos. Por estas razones, es importante describir y analizar la participación de la leptina en las señalizaciones neuroendocrinas de la obesidad, obteniendo una mayor comprensión y entendimiento de la enfermedad. El presente manuscrito pretende describir este tema con fines educativos.

Introduction: Huntington's Disease (HD) is a hereditary, neurodegenerative disorder due to abnormal repeats of the CAG triplet in the IT-15 gene. It is characterized by a triad of progressive motor, psychiatric and cognitive symptoms, resulting from striatal neuronal loss. The impact of HD in Latin America is evidenced by the prevalence rates in Maracaibo (Venezuela) and Juan de Acosta (Colombia), which are the highest recorded in the world. This contrasts with the social abandonment and the scarce intervention of local governments.
Aim: Provide an approach to the most relevant aspects of HD from its pathogenesis and associated genetic polymorphisms, to the current treatment options.
Methodology: A literature review was performed of the state of the art of prognosis and treatment strategies in HD, including the identification of different polymorphic markers in the genes coding for UCHL1, HIP1, PGC1α, GRIK2, TBP, BDNF, among others, and its associations in the evolution of the disease in the presence of abnormal CAG repeats.
Conclusion: Even though in the last decades many researchers have focused on the development of curative treatment, there is no effective therapeutic target to prevent the clinical onset of the disease or to delay its progression. Instead, current pharmacological management is palliative, the evidence to generalize the surgical approaches is insufficient. Newly, the fetal neural cell transplantation into the striatum is offered as the surgical option that provides hope for the development of a true disease-modifying treatment.

el acto de tragar va más allá de un fenómeno mecánico. Es un proceso altamente complejo, elaborado y modelado por varios niveles del sistema nervioso. Su alteración es consecuencia directa o complicación asociada de varias patologías, donde sobresale la disfagia orofaríngea por etiología funcional de origen neurológico y neuromuscular. Es objetivo actualizar el conocimiento sobre los fundamentos y concepto de la disfagia orofaríngea neurogénica, y proveer información de utilidad clínica de sus principales causas. Los trastornos neurológicos son responsables del 70% al 80% de la etiología de la disfagia orofaríngea. Se produce principalmente por el accidente cerebrovascular, enfermedad de Parkinson, esclerosis múltiple, esclerosis lateral amiotrófica y traumatismo encéfalo craneano. Conclusiones: La disfagia orofaríngea neurogénica resulta de lesiones en cualquier parte de los circuitos y estructuras centrales entre la corteza cerebral y los componentes periféricos de la deglución, y los déficits fisiológicos son variados. La comprensión conceptual, fisiopatológica y de características clínicas de las principales causas de disfagia neurogénica ayudan a los equipos asistenciales para realizar acciones de detección, diagnóstico, tratamiento y rehabilitación oportuna.

Logical intuitions or matching heuristic? Examining the effect of deduction training on belief-based reasoning judgments
Authors: Ghasemi Omid , Handley Simon , Stephens Rachel Gloria
Published: July 2022

Are people able to successfully evaluate logic intuitively, without engaging in deliberative thinking? Recent research has revealed that when individuals are asked to simply evaluate the believability of deductively valid or invalid arguments, they often endorse valid arguments at higher rates than invalid ones. This effect of validity on belief judgments – the “logic-belief effect” – is considered to be evidence of intuitive logic or logical intuitions. However, a recent study challenged the intuitive logic interpretation by demonstrating that ‘pseudo-logical’ arguments, such as affirmation of the consequent, where there is a compelling but invalid inference invited, interfere with contrasting belief judgments in the same way as valid logical structures do, and hence, the logic-belief effect may have nothing to do with evaluating logic itself. Instead, this finding suggests that a simple heuristic that relies on the matching of constituent propositions leads to such interference. To further test this matching heuristic account, across two experiments (N = 332), we examined whether training in logic would selectively reduce the endorsement of invalid arguments under logic instructions whilst maintaining the impact of invalid inferences on belief judgments, where a matching cue could drive responses. We instructed participants to evaluate the conclusions of a series of logical and pseudo-logical arguments based on logic or belief, before and after a logic training block. The results showed that whilst both judgment types were impacted by both logical and pseudo-logical structures before training, after training the effect of the latter was indeed minimized in logic judgments but not belief judgments. The results largely support the matching heuristic account, whereby simple considerations of proposition-matching rather than logic assessment underly previous evidence for intuitive logic.
A Gradient-Descent-Based k-NN Algorithm
Authors: Guo Wenqi
Published: July 2022

In this paper, we reviewed a few works that solved the speed issue of the k-NN classification algorithm. This makes it possible to solve real problems using the classificational k-NN algorithm. We then use gradient descent to achieve the equivalent goal of feature scaling, increasing the accuracy of the k-NN classification algorithm, including on nominal data. I was just a part-time college student when I wrote this paper, things might be wrong. Don't assume its credibility is high.
Who tweets, and how freely? Evidence from an elite survey among German politicians
Authors: Bauer Paul C. , Ecker Alejandro , Imre Michael , Landesvatter Camille , Malich Sonja
Published: July 2022

Twitter has become one of the primary platforms for politicians to interact with the public. Consequently, research into politicians’ Twitter usage has proliferated with attempts at measuring increasingly complex concepts such as ideology or policy attitudes. So far, many of these studies either implicitly or explicitly assume that politicians’ Twitter accounts are operated by politicians themselves and that politicians are free to present their “true” attitudes and positions. We conducted an elite survey in Germany and present evidence that these assumptions only partially hold true. In our sample, only around a third of Twitter accounts are operated by the corresponding politician alone. In our view, this is a conservative estimate and should further decrease as political elites’ social media strategies professionalize over the coming years. We also find that most politicians state that there are no party guidelines regarding Twitter and that their tweets are not checked by a central authority in the party. We discuss the implications of our findings for research on social media in general.
