Decreased glucorticoid sensitivity as a factor of stressogenic shifts in the activity of monoamine oxidase, lipid peroxidation, and behavior in rats
Authors: Volchegorsky I. A. , Tseilikman V. E. , Smirnov D. S. , Ship S. A. , Borisenkov A. V.
Published: October 2019

Four episodes of immobilization stress cause a decrease in the sensitivity to glucocorticoid hormones, followed by anxiogenic be­havioral disorders, enhanced monoamine oxidase-В (МАО-В) activity and simultaneously increased lipid peroxidation (LPO) in the brain tissue of rats. Concurrently, there is an increase in renal МАО-В activity, as well as renal and hepatic accumulation of LPO products. Administration of kenalog (2 mg/kg), a phar­macological analogue of glucocorticoid hormones, prevents the poststress МАО-В activation and LPO and attenuates anxiogen­ic behavioral disorders in the rats.
The use of metformin IUD in patients with type II diabetes mellitus with vascular lesions of the retina
Authors: Milenkaya T. M. , Bessmertnaya E. G. , Dedov I. I.
Published: October 2019

Retinal microvascular lesions, maculopathy are found in elderly patients with type II diabetes mellitus (DM) significantly more often than in patients without diabetes. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is diagnosed in 16-21% of cases in patients with newly diagnosed type II diabetes [10].

An important problem remains the identification of initial changes in the retina and their treatment in the early stages [2, 3, 8]. The results of studies by many authors [1, 5, 8] showed that poor compensation of diabetes contributed to the adverse course of retinopathy, rather than the patient’s age or duration of the disease [4, 9]. Long-term hyperglycemia leads to early anatomical and functional disorders in the blood vessels of the eyes - a thickening of the basement membrane, a decrease in the viability of endothelial cells, and loss of pericytes. These structural changes increase retinal capillary permeability, as a result of which the protein seeps into the surface and deep layers of the retina, contributing to the formation of soft and hard exudates.

Regardless of the level of glycemia, elevated serum lipoproteins are a risk factor for the development of DR in middle-aged and older patients [6].
Bone mineral density in patients with primary chronic adrenal insufficiency

Published: October 2019

Forty-four patients (11 men and 33 women) with primary chronic adrenal insufficiency (CAI) treated by substitute synthetic glucocorticoids (GC) prednisolone and dexamethasone and 9a-fluorohydrocortisone (cortineff) were examined in order to investigate the effects of various factors on changes in mineral compactness of bone tissue (MCB). In men the disease duration was 10.33±1.4 years, in women 11.64±3.49 years. Twenty (60%) women were postmenopausal, ten of these (50%) for more than ten years. None of these women was treated by estrogens. Bi-energy x-ray absorptiometry (BRA) of forearm bones was carried out in all 44 patients and quantitative computer-aided tomography (CAT) of L2, L3, and L4 vertebrae was carried out in 25 patients. Plasma levels of dihydroepiandrosterone sulfates (DEA-S) were measured; in men plasma testosterone was measured. A decrease of MCB to less than —1 SD by the T index was detected by BRA in 72.7±13.4 men and in only 42.4±8.6%o women, and by the Z index in 45.5±15.01 men and 33.3±8.2% women. CAT of the spine showed MCB decrease by the T index in 83.3±15.23% men and 63.15±11.07%o women and by the Z index in 16.7±15.23%o men and 26.3±10.1 women. Despite an appreciably high incidence of osteopenia and osteoporosis in men, the difference between men and women by these parameters is insignificant. Among women at least 80% osteopenias and osteoporosis occurred in postmenopausal women. In women with decreased MCB (Z<—1) the duration of the postmenopause was significantly (p<0.05) higher than in women with normal MCB. No significant differences in the disease duration, patients’ age, and plasma levels of DEA-S and testosterone between groups with normal and decreased MCB were observed in both men and women. Analysis of correlations of the results of both osteodensitometry methods showed a strong inverse correlation between MCB and duration of postmenopause. In four men CAT of the spine revealed a strong positive correlation between MCB and testosterone level. Hence, a characteristic feature of the osteopenic syndrome in patients with CAI treated by substitute synthetic GC is its increased incidence in men, compatible to that in women; the duration of postmenopause is a significant factor of risk of osteopenia in women with CAI.

Published: October 2019

Jurnatan area is a trading and office hub in Semarang City which was built in the 1970s. Furthermore, the area is directly adjacent to Semarang’s premier cultural heritage area, namely Kota Lama. Since the economic center shifted to the Simpang Lima area in the 1980s, Jurnatan area lost its chief appeal, and was gradually abandoned. This heavily impacted the area, resulting in abandoned complexes, declining trade, and its current status as a ‘no man’s land’. This study aims to find design concepts to revitalize the area, and revitalize its function as an area which supports the area of Kota Lama Semarang, in its ambition to become a World Heritage site. The area planning forwards the concept of walkability, which puts pedestrian needs ahead of vehicles. Besides being an important part of the Semarang City Government’s plan to revitalize the Kota Lama, this concept is suitable for reducing the density of vehicles both in the cultural heritage area and the transition area of  shopping complex.

Published: October 2019

The enhancement of environmental quality for urban settlement in Palembang is expected to be sustainable due to the increase number of slum areas and the limited funding allocation for the infrastructure establishment. This study aimed to determine priority scale of activities and locations according to three pillars of sustainable development which can alleviate slum areas i.e. physical environment, social and economic aspects by involving all stakeholders. This research will provide information for the local government to determine priority activities and locations for settlement improvement by using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). The study revealed that the main factor to improve the environmental quality for settlement in 29 Ilir sub-district was the infrastructure development with urgency level reaching 46.7%. Meanwhile, the urgency level of social activity factor was approximately 31.2% followed by the economic development factor which was the lowest level by 22.1%. However, the highest priority level from those activity factors was household waste management by 100%, while other priority activities that should be done consecutively were waste infrastructure (93.5%), community service activities (83,6%), environmental drainage (66.2%), sanitation (66.1%), business capital loans (63%), training and entrepreneurship (61%), and compensation for the poor (57,9 %). The aforementioned activities were conducted in priority locations in which environmental quality was relatively poor.

From Global Unions to the Shop Floor: Trade Union Networks in Transnational Corporations in Brazil
Authors: Framil Filho Ricardo , Mello e Silva Leonardo
Published: October 2019

This article analyses the origins, development and organisation of cross-union, company-based trade union networks in transnational corporations in the metal and chemical industries in Brazil. Collectively developed by local, national, foreign and international trade union organisations, this kind of union action was introduced in the country in the early 2000s as a way to connect local labour representatives organising workers in different locations within the same company. Networks strengthen local labour power and stimulate transnational connections. Promoting solidarity among workers across multiple factories, they offer the perspective for a global unionism connected to shop-floor organisation. Despite these achievements, networks face important challenges. Power imbalances, the reliance on restrictive social dialogue arrangements and the compromise with traditional structures limit the reach of the strategy.

Defending Informal Workers’ Welfare Rights: Trade Union Struggles in Tamil Nadu
Authors: Kalpana K.
Published: October 2019

The South Indian state of Tamil Nadu has had a rich history of informal workers’ movements and struggles that have pressured the state government to enact statutory schemes and set up worker welfare boards to extend social protection to informal workers. This article discusses the efforts of two prominent trade unions in the state to secure welfare benefits for informal workers, and explores the primary challenges, conflicts and dilemmas they have faced. It explores the troubled interfaces between trade unions and the worker welfare boards that the unions regard as the fruit of workers’ struggles and collective organising of the past. The unions have used the welfare boards to mobilise new occupational categories of workers as well as women workers in the lower rungs of the informal sector. At the same time, the welfare boards are a double-edged sword that the unions must carefully manage given the frustration and disappointments that ensue when the promise of social protection remains elusive to workers. Placing this case study in the larger context of labour movements across the world that have won contingent victories in protecting workers’ interests and well-being, the article raises troubling questions regarding the implications of these victories in neo-liberal state regimes.

Auditory Cortex Contributes to Discrimination of Pure Tones
Authors: O’Sullivan Conor , Weible Aldis P. , Wehr Michael
Published: October 2019

The auditory cortex is topographically organized for sound frequency and contains highly selective frequency-tuned neurons, yet the role of auditory cortex in the perception of sound frequency remains unclear. Lesion studies have shown that auditory cortex is not essential for frequency discrimination of pure tones. However, transient pharmacological inactivation has been reported to impair frequency discrimination. This suggests the possibility that successful tone discrimination after recovery from lesion surgery could arise from long-term reorganization or plasticity of compensatory pathways. Here, we compared the effects of lesions and optogenetic suppression of auditory cortex on frequency discrimination in mice. We found that transient bilateral optogenetic suppression partially but significantly impaired discrimination performance. In contrast, bilateral electrolytic lesions of auditory cortex had no effect on performance of the identical task, even when tested only 4 h after lesion. This suggests that when auditory cortex is destroyed, an alternative pathway is almost immediately adequate for mediating frequency discrimination. Yet this alternative pathway is insufficient for task performance when auditory cortex is intact but has its activity suppressed. These results indicate a fundamental difference between the effects of brain lesions and optogenetic suppression, and suggest the existence of a rapid compensatory process possibly induced by injury.
White Matter Stroke Induces a Unique Oligo-Astrocyte Niche That Inhibits Recovery

Published: October 2019

Subcortical white matter stroke is a common stroke subtype. White matter stroke stimulates adjacent oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) to divide and migrate to the lesion, but stroke OPCs have only a limited differentiation into mature oligodendrocytes. To understand the molecular systems that are active in OPC responses in white matter stroke, OPCs were virally labeled and laser-captured in the region of partial damage adjacent to the infarct in male mice. RNAseq indicates two distinct OPC transcriptomes associated with the proliferative and limited-regeneration phases of OPCs after stroke. Molecular pathways related to nuclear receptor activation, ECM turnover, and lipid biosynthesis are activated during proliferative OPC phases after stroke; inflammatory and growth factor signaling is activated in the later stage of limited OPC differentiation. Within ECM proteins, Matrilin-2 is induced early after stroke and then rapidly downregulated. Prediction of upstream regulators of the OPC stroke transcriptome identifies several candidate molecules, including Inhibin A-a negative regulator of Matrilin-2. Inhibin A is induced in reactive astrocytes after stroke, including in humans. In functional assays, Matrilin-2 induces OPC differentiation, and Inhibin A inhibits OPC Matrilin-2 expression and inhibits OPC differentiation.In vivo, Matrilin-2 promotes motor recovery after white matter stroke, and promotes OPC differentiation and ultrastructural evidence of remyelination. These studies show that white matter stroke induces an initial proliferative and reparative response in OPCs, but this is blocked by a local cellular niche where reactive astrocytes secrete Inhibin A, downregulating Matrilin-2 and blocking myelin repair and recovery.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTStroke in the cerebral white matter of the brain is common. The biology of damage and recovery in this stroke subtype are not well defined. These studies use cell-specific RNA sequencing and gain-of-function studies to show that white matter stroke induces a glial signaling niche, present in both humans and mice, between reactive astrocytes and oligodendrocyte progenitor cells. Astrocyte secretion of Inhibin A and downregulation of oligodendrocyte precursor production of Matrilin-2 limit OPC differentiation, tissue repair, and recovery in this disease.

Published: October 2019

Onečišćenje okoliša jedan je od glavnih izazova današnje civilizacije. Porast broja svjetskog stanovništva i urbanizacija, posebice u zemljama u razvoju, dovodi do nastajanja većih količina otpadnih voda. U današnje vrijeme, emisije industrijskih otpadnih voda predstavljaju sve veći problem uz moguće negativne učinke na zdravlje ljudi i okoliš. Farmaceutske otpadne vode mogu biti visoko opterećene organskim i anorganskim tvarima te toksične za ekosustav. Prije nego li se otpadna voda ispusti u okoliš, potrebno ju je obraditi kako bi se zadovoljili zakonom propisani uvjeti. Biološka obrada široko je zastupljena jer je učinkovita, ekonomična i okolišno prihvatljiva. Bioremedijacijom iskorištava se mikrobni metabolizam u optimalnim okolišnim uvjetima za uklanjanje onečišćujućih tvari te se dodatno može poboljšati bioaugmentacijom.

Published: October 2019

U organskoj kemiji sve se više pažnje posvećuje sintezi u mikro- i mezo- protočnim sustavima (engl. flow chemistry), koja ima brojne prednosti nad šaržnom sintezom. Glavne prednosti provedbe organske sinteze u takvim protočnim reaktorima su veća učinkovitost, ekološka prihvatljivost i sigurnost. Unatoč tome sinteza u protočnim sustavima ne može se primjenjivati kao univerzalni pristup za sve probleme koji mogu zateći organske sintetske kemičare te prije provedbe odabranih reakcija treba razmotriti isplativost s obzirom na šaržnu sintezu. Sigurnosti i ekološkoj prihvatljivosti sinteza u protočnim reaktorima značajno doprinosi upotreba malog volumena kemikalija i otapala budući da se reakcije provode u mikro- ili mezo- reaktorima napravljenima u pravilu od inertnih materijala. Zbog brojnih prednosti, organske reakcije u protočnim sustavima predmet su kontinuiranog istraživanja, pri čemu se uvjeti provedbe reakcija optimiraju u svrhu povećanja učinkovitosti i sigurnosti procesa te njegova uvećanja.

Industrijalizacija, porast populacije i urbanizacija glavni su uzroci stvaranja sve većih količina komunalnih otpadnih voda (KOV) koje, neobrađene, predstavljaju ozbiljnu prijetnju prirodnim vodonosnicima. Radi zaštite okoliša i prirodnih resursa potrebno je primjenjivati visokoučinkovite i okolišu naklonjene tehnologije obrade KOV-a. Cilj ovog rada bio je obrada KOV-a naprednim membranskim postupcima; membranskim bioreaktorom (MBR) te dodatnom obradom MBR efluenta s nanofiltracijom (NF) i reverznom osmozom (RO). Laboratorijska i pilot-obrada KOV-a MBR-om rezultirala je smanjenjem kemijske potrošnje kisika (KPK), biokemijske potrošnje kisika (BPK5), mutnoće i suspendiranih tvari za više od 92 %. Mikrobiološki parametri smanjeni su za 4,12 log10 do 4,88 log10. Naknadna obrada MBR efluenta s RO/NF membranama (XLE i NF270) pokazala je dodatno smanjenje svih mjerenih parametara.

Abstract. This paper discussed the prevention and protection of village-based ABH with the Adat approach in Aceh. The number of ABH continues to grow which is caused by factors, the environment, wrong students, families are not harmonious, the lack of religious education. Not only in Indonesia, but also in Japan, the Philippines, Malaysia and Bangladesh formal legal processes have been left to be replaced by non-formal or diversion. However, the problem is the community's readiness and the responsibilities of parents in providing prevention and protection for ABH. In Aceh with traditional power which is thick with religious values it is able to provide prevention and protection even rehabilitation to village-based ABH. Some villages in Aceh have succeeded in making reusam gampong (village regulations) that put forward aspects of prevention and protection as well as strengthening traditional institutions (keuchik, tuha peut and teungku imum) and the role of parents. Sanctions given that are educational for example, cleaning meunasah, adhan for some time, memorizing some surahs in the Koran.Abstrak. Tulisan ini membahas tentang pencegahan dan perlindungan ABH berbasis gampong dengan pendekatan Adat di Aceh. Jumlah ABH terus bertambah yang disebabkan oleh faktor, lingkungan, salah didik, keluarga tidak harmonis, minimnya pendidikan agama. Saat ini bukan saja di Indonesia, tetapi juga di Jepang, Filipina, Malaysia dan Bangladesh proses hukum formal mulai ditinggal diganti dengan non formal atau diversi. Namun demikian yang jadi masalah adalah kesiapan masyarakat dan tanggung jawab orang tua dalam memberikan pencegahan dan perlindungan terhadap ABH. Di Aceh dengan kekuatan adat yang kental dengan nilai-nilai agama mampu memberikan pencegahan dan perlindungan bahkan rehabilitasi pada ABH yang berbasis gampong. Beberapa gampong di Aceh telah berhasil membuat reusam gampong (peraturan desa) yang mengedepankan aspek pencegahan dan perlindungan serta penguatan lembaga adat (keuchik, tuha peut dan teungku imum) serta peran orang tua. Sanksi yang diberikan yang bersifat mendidik misalnya, membersihkan meunasah, azan dalam beberapa waktu, menghafal beberapa surah dalam al-Quran.

Abstract. UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta Daycare was established not only as a day care center, but also as a laboratory for the development of childcare at the beloved UIN campus. But in practice, Daycare seems to only run the work program of the Gender and Children's Study Center. Many things have been a factor in the narrowing of the opinion of the academic community on the connotation that UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta Daycare is only a formality and has not been able to accommodate the needs of its employees. To assess the urgency of Daycare revitalization, SWOT analysis is carried out which is commonly done at each institution. After getting the results of the analysis, the author recommends important points that are expected to revitalize Daycare, including improving quality, improving the system, adding infrastructure and evaluating. In conclusion, UIN Jakarta Daycare is very likely to become a childcare laboratory, but it requires the application of noble values such as courage and openness in carrying out management functions (POAC) for the creation of a child-friendly work environment at UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta.Abstrak. Daycare UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta didirikan bukan hanya sebagai tempat penitipan anak semata, tetapi merupakan laboratorium pengembangan pengasuhan anak di kampus UIN tercinta. Namun pada prakteknya, Daycare seolah hanya menjalankan program kerja Pusat Studi Gander dan  Anak. Ada banyak hal yang menjadi faktor mengerucutnya opini civitas akademika pada konotasi bahwa Daycare UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta hanya formalitas dan belum mampu mengakomodir kebutuhan pegawainya. Untuk mengkaji sejauh mana urgensi revitalisasi Daycare dilakukan analisis SWOT yang lazim dilakukan pada setiap lembaga. Setelah  mendapatkan hasil analisis, penulis merekomendasikan poin-poin penting yang diharapkan dapat merevitalisasi Daycare, di antaranya peningkatan mutu, perbaikan sytem, penambahan infrastruktur dan evaluasi. Kesimpulannya Daycare UIN  Jakarta sangat mungkin untuk menjadi laboratorium pengasuhan anak, namun  dibutuhkan aplikasi nilai-nilai luhur seperti keberanian dan keterbukaan dalam menjalankan fungsi managemen (POAC) demi terciptanya atmosfir  lingkungan kerja ramah anak di UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta.
PENERAPAN DALIL SYAR’I : UPAYA MENCIPTAKAN LINGKUNGAN KERJA RAMAH MANUSIA
Authors: Farid Muhammad
Published: October 2019

Abstract. The difference between causal about gender and its practice makes problems related to economy, welfare and education more prominent. The majority understands that gender is an equal right between men and women. Such understanding is what erodes the role as well as the inner degree of a woman. This condition can be seen in the current work environment which increasingly alienates women from their families. So that the work environment that should be a factor driving the economy becomes a new problem because of its inferiority towards women and children. Islam as a religion of mercy for all nature provides solutions and enlightenment related to the problem. With the application of the arguments syar’i (Islamic law) is expected to all run accordingly. So that balance and satisfaction will be achieved by all parties. In this paper describes a good work environment from an Islamic perspective, namely a work environment that is friendly to children, women and the company itself.Abstrak. Adanya perbedaan antara kausal tentang gender dan praktiknya membuat masalah-masalah terkait dengan ekonomi, kesejahteraan dan pendidikan semakin mencuat. Mayoritas memahami bahwa gender merupakan persamaan hak antara laki-laki dan perempuan secara penuh. Pemahaman seperti itulah yang sejatinya menggerus peran sekaligus derajat bathiniah seorang wanita. Kondisi tersebut dapat dilihat pada lingkungan kerja kekinian yang semakin menjauhkan perempuan dengan keluarganya. Sehingga lingkungan kerja yang seharusnya menjadi faktor pendorong ekonomi justru menjadi masalah baru sebab ketidak ramahannya terhadap perempuan dan anak. Islam sebagai agama rahmat bagi seluruh alam memberikan solusi dan pencerahan terkait masalah tersebut. Dengan penerapan dalil-dalil syar’i (hukum islam) diharapkan semua berjalan semestinya. Sehingga keseimbangan dan kepuasan akan dicapai oleh semua pihak. Dalam paper ini menjelaskan tentang lingkungan kerja yang baik perspektif islam, yaitu lingkungan kerja yang ramah anak, perempuan dan perusahaan itu sendiri.

An effective vaccine is available against the infection, however, a certain proportion of the vaccinated patients do not respond to the vaccine depending on certain factors. Therefore, vaccine-induced immunity (anti-HBs) should be tested at health-care workers. For nonresponders, there are other vaccination strategies to try to achieve protection. This recommendation also provides a guidance for postexposure prophylaxis following occupational exposures against HBV infection. This is the first Hungarian recommendation about this topic.

Molecular imprinting provides a useful complement to the use of biomolecules for thedevelopment of sensors for the analysis of trace substances on account of their highlyselective recognition characteristics. Moreover, the stabilities make them ideal for use inapplications not normally suitable for the use of biomolecules. The nature of the techniqueand its use in a number of analysis formats suitable for use in environmental monitoring arepresented.

Published: October 2019

This article was migrated. The article was marked as recommended. In medical education, there have been three important reforms: science-based curriculum, problem-based learning, and competency-based education. Currently, the concept of Entrustable Professional Activities (EPA) goes a step beyond competencies. The aim of this paper is twofold: first, to present a proposal for an EPA-based curriculum for undergraduate medical education, and second, to describe its curricular framework, educational model and organization. This curricular proposal integrates EPA-based education with the foundations of the interpretive epistemology, the constructivist paradigm and the health care transformations. Using Actividades Profesionales Confiables (APROC) as a curricular guideline helps the educators define knowledge, skills, and attitudes; teachers can plan activities that link theory to practice; evaluators can assess the student's performance and provide him with feedback, and Faculty leaders and collaborators can implement projects to improve educational quality. The curriculum proposal includes a flexible modular system, the integration of biomedical, socio-medical and clinical sciences, and a close link between theory and practice. This curriculum puts medical education at the forefront, it favors the comprehensive education of future physicians, and it constitutes a true educational revolution.
Literacy: From the Perspective of Text and Discourse Theory
Authors: McNamara Danielle S. , Roscoe Rod , Allen Laura , Balyan Renu , McCarthy Kathryn S.
Published: October 2019

Literacy is a critically important and contemporary issue for educators, scientists, and politicians. Efforts to overcome the challenges associated with illiteracy, and the subsequent development of literate societies, are closely related to those of poverty reduction and sustainable human development. In this paper, the authors examine literacy from the lens of text and discourse theorists who focus on the higher-order comprehension processes involved in literacy. Discourse processing models make the assumption that comprehension emerges from the construction of a mental model of the text, which relies on the reader generating inferences to connect ideas within the text and to what the reader already knows. The article provides a broad overview of the theoretical models that drive research on text comprehension and production, as well as how this research shapes literacy instruction and effective interventions. The authors focus on two interventions with proven success in improving deep comprehension and writing, iSTART and the Writing Pal. Increasing literacy across the world call for a greater focus on theory driven strategy interventions to be integrated within classrooms and community at large.
Pragmatics of musical rhetoric in the post-2015 elections in Nigeria
Authors: Akinola Ayodele James
Published: October 2019

In linguistics, most studies on rhetoric are approached from the perspective of persuasive ideologies of social actors such as community, religious, and political leaders with a concentration on their speeches and the impacts of the speeches on their followers and society at large. As a result, music as a form of persuasion and political strategy has been under-researched. This paper investigates the rhetoric embedded in politically-motivated musical renditions in the post-2015 elections in Nigeria and identifies ideologies of persuasion, pragmatic choice(s), and implications of the narratives on the Nigerian political landscape. Mey’s pragmatic acts serve as the theoretical base. Two popular and viral musical renditions in (Nigerian pidgin) English from social media were selected for the study. Analysis of the selected songs which critiqued the leadership style of President Muhammadu Buhari from two opposing angles was carried out. Both songs exhibited the Pragmemic activity of (in)direct speech acts as well as conversational and psychological acts through their rhythm and lyrics adapted from Harry Song’s popular ‘Reggae Blues’ and re-titled as ‘The (Change/Truth) Blues’. Musical political rhetoric relies on co-texts conveyed through verifiable information, (satiric) visuals, history, antecedents, and socio-political realities and sentiments as strategies of persuasion. The pragmatic acts employed include narrating, condemning, accusing and counter-accusing, blaming, justifying, (partial) veiling, threatening, hoping, and praying. The study reveals the political consciousness and conflicting perceptions of some Nigeria citizens in governance and makes a case for ‘truth awareness’ among the governed. Citizens’ active participation and better access to information about the political leadership of the day is, therefore, advocated. All these are invaluable for the reposing of trust in the government and also engender citizens’ active participation.

This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of cooperative learning in English language classrooms to enhance Iranian students’ speaking skills and motivations. A pre-test–post-test control group design was employed to compare the impact of the cooperative learning approach with that of traditional whole-class instruction on speaking skills and six aspects of learning motivation: intrinsic motivation, integrated regulation, identified regulation, introjected regulation, external regulation, and amotivation. The data of the current study were gathered at multiple points of time before and after the end of the experiment to determine the effectiveness of cooperative learning on the sample’s speaking skills and motivations. In practical terms, the sample’s speaking skills were first examined through an English oral test prior to and after some cooperative learning instructional activities were provided. Next, a seven-point Likert scale-questionnaire was administered to the sample before and at the end of the course to check students’ motivation towards the use of cooperative learning in English classes. The data were analyzed using basic and inferential statistical methods including mean scores, standard deviations, independent and paired sample t-tests, one-way ANCOVA, and effect size. The findings showed remarkable development in the students’ speaking skills after the introduction of cooperative learning techniques. Moreover, the findings suggested significant differences in favor of cooperative learning for improving intrinsic motivation, but no differences were found on other aspects of motivation. In light of the findings, the researchers recommend that teachers could benefit from applying CL in English classes, which may in turn develop students’ speaking skills and motivation.
Leadership Potential of Professional Teacher Associations in Russia: Formation of Middle Leaders
Authors: Merenkov Anatoly V. , Antonova Natalya L. , Popova Natalia G.
Published: October 2019

This research study is aimed at investigating distributed leadership practices in the Russian school system, of which professional teacher associations (PTA) constitute a distinct feature. In particular, we set out to investigate the PTA leadership potential, as well as the role and specific personal characteristics of middle leaders in the Russian school education system. These associations are formed by the school administration on the basis of subject areas, bringing together teachers of maths, history, etc. Teachers join PTAs on a voluntarily basis. The key function of such organisations consists in the implementation of innovative educational approaches and techniques. In order to analyse their leadership potential, we carried out a sociological survey among the employees of high-profile secondary schools (gymnasiums and lyceums) situated in the major Russian city of Ekaterinburg. The research methodology comprised structured interviews with 110 respondents, along with in-depth interviews with 2 school directors, 4 school deputy directors and 6 heads of professional teacher associations. Our results show that the fundamentals and principles of distributed leadership are actively implemented in Ekaterinburg schools. The school administrations encourage the creation of professional teacher associations grouped around subject areas, delegating to these structural units the functions of improving the quality of teaching the respective subjects and disseminating educational innovations, at the same time as fulfilling the requirements of the state and regional education authorities. Such associations are headed by middle leaders, who are nominated by their colleagues and whose candidacy is approved by school seniors, taking into account their professional achievements, experience of leading pedagogical innovations and the presence of the right personal qualities necessary for productive collaborative work. These people perform the role of mediators, operating at the interface between various levels within the school. Although viewed as a school’s personnel reserve for the positions of principals and head teachers, our respondents consider themselves to be ‘more teachers’ or ‘innovators in education’ than administrators. The development of the leadership qualities of such professionals in the Russian school system is shown to be hindered by a ‘glass ceiling’ – a certain limit in their career growth. This discouraging factor results in some middle school leaders searching for professional self-realization opportunities outside the school system, in the spheres of business, science or culture that are believed to provide more opportunities for self-advancement.

Published: October 2019

The problem of algorithmic thinking development in computer science, computer technology and information technology courses remains relevant despite a lot of research done in the area. The present article is intended to substantiate the mental learning platform for further use of cognitive methods and training tools; it discloses the essence of multidimensional algorithmic thinking and presents mental and embodied (kinaesthetic) programming training tools. The authors arrive at the conclusion that development of multidimensional algorithmic thinking should be carried out through the use of mental algorithmic maps for different styles of thinking, mental and empirical tasks, as well as kinaesthetic simulators. Such training tools involve all channels of perception and greatly contribute to the understanding and better assimilation of “Algorithmization and programming” subject. The results of the research can be useful for computer science teachers at schools and programming teachers at higher educational institutions

Authors: Smorgunova Valentina Yu. , Dorskaia Aleksandra A. , Chestnov Il’ia L.
Published: October 2019

The paper uses historic and legal materials to analyse the contemporary theories that describe the correlation of customary law and legislation. The authors identify the applicability of these theories in studying regulation of Siberian peoples in the Russian Empire. The paper explores the role of the historical school of jurisprudence and the normative theory of law in determining the interplay between customary law and legislation in the 19th and 20th centuries in Russia. The authors make the conclusion that the implementation of judicial reform of 1864 was impeded in Siberia due to the state giving preference to customary law in governing the relations not regulated by legislation
