Differences between psychotherapy and counselling. Who is looking for and who needs them?
Authors: Rakovec Primož
Published: July 2021

According to statistical forecasts in modern societies is trend of mental disorders growth, especially anxiety and depression. At the same time there will be probably present higher demands for professional psychosocial support. Psychotherapy and counselling as talking interventions are part of the psychosocial support, needed when people can’t resolve their (mental) problems by themselves. The article deals with the question about differneces between those two professions. Are those differences artificial, is there any argumented facts in favour of different proponents? For this purpose we have examined different definitions of counselling and psychotherapy, training standards, techniques and skills, ethical standards, treatment outcomes, depth of treatment and clients expiriences.
Economic and social security in EU: Reforming Slovenian law on social enterpreneurship
Authors: Kleindienst Petra
Published: July 2021

Europe 2020 strategy of smart, sustainable and inclusive growth also implies policies for boosting social innovations. In this context, it is relevant to encourage solutions such as social entrepreneurship as it is addressing social and environmental issues while employing entrepreneurship. Social entrepreneurship depends on the context of its emergence and implementation. In this regard, the context-specific factors play an important role. Following the Cultural Political Economy approach, the article examines on different factors that have influenced on the adoption of amendments of the Slovenian Social Entrepreneurship Act in 2018. Selection of the case study of Slovenia bases on the findings implying that Slovenia has still not overcome the initial phase of the development of the social entrepreneurship. The article reveals that there are still issues relevant for running social enterprises that are not sufficiently regulated by the law. One of them is a training of the vulnerable groups in terms of their technological skills in order to ensure their efficiency and productiveness in Work Integration Social Enterprises.
The influence of entrepreneurial skills, education and risk perception on career choice intent: The case of European students with family business background
Authors: Ljubotina Predrag
Published: July 2021

When confronted with career choice, students with family business background have a specific trilemma. Having an additional career alternative as a potential family business successor, makes their career choice decision more complex compared with their peers. The purpose of this paper is to investigate how entrepreneurial education, risk perception and skill mastering influence career choice intention of this specific group of students. We used a data set from GUESSS 2014 survey. Our sample includes students with family business background from 18 European countries. We used a multinomial logistic regression since our dependant variable has three categorical solutions (entrepreneur, employee and successor). Our findings may be used by consultants, education institutions and more importantly by parents which find themselves in a triple role of an entrepreneur, an owner and a parent.
Das Nahe und das Ferne, das Einzelne und das Allgemeine, das Zeitliche und das Ewige. Über die Grundpolarität in Jaspers Denken
Authors:   Karl-Jaspers-Stiftung, Basel, Hügli Anton
Published: July 2021

Karl Jaspers received the basic figure of his thinking from Kierkegaard: that of the self-caring subjective thinker who, by relating himself to himself, re- lates to another. The two moments that make up this basic figure – my rela- tionship with myself and the other on which this relationship is based – run through Jaspers’ entire thinking: be it as the individual versus the general, as the present versus the Eternal, as the near One versus the distant One, as existence versus transcendence. It is man’s job to endure the tension between these two poles and to in- tegrate them into his life. This task can only be solved existentially, but it is understood correctly only through philosophical thinking. Because the two poles are beyond all knowledge and can only be illuminated by philosophical thought, but never caught up conceptually, each individual is called upon to choose freely what he believes in and “which star he wants to bind himself to”. It is this incessant process of making oneself sure of oneself and of the encompassing being that, according to Jaspers, defines philosophy as philoso- phia perennis and yet always ties it back to the historical situation in which the individual thinker finds himself and tries to find out what is true to him in the eternal sense. These two sides in Jaspers’ philosophy – his understanding of philosophy as philosophia perennis and his insistence on the respective his- torical situation – are therefore only two aspects of the basic polarity of his thinking.
Jaspersa nowa formuła starożytnego ujęcia filozofii jako praktycznego filozofowania
Authors:   Uniwersytet Pedagogiczny w Krakowie, Piecuch Czesława
Published: July 2021

Jaspers defines his philosophy as philosophizing, in order to emphasize the practical function of thisthinking. His approach to philosophy evokes many similarities with the ancient concept of philosophy as wisdom related to life, the art of living. And yet, although the similarities are suggestive, it is the dif- ferences that come to the fore. This is because Jaspers’ formula of philosophy is a thoroughly modern and original proposition, differing from ancient con- cepts in its basic tenets, as I shall demonstrate. I highlightthe differences by identifying two assumptions underlying this concept: the “source of thought” (der denkende Ursprung) and the “thing” (Sache), that the man has made his. The concept of the practical function of philosophy belongs to one of the many paradoxes found in Jaspers’ thought. I follow the mystery of this para- dox by juxtaposing Jaspers’ concept of practical philosophy against its ancient predecessor, based on several selected categories, such as freedom, reason, fear, real life, and philosophical meditation that the two seem to share. Along the way, I argue that the contemporary formula of Jaspers’ practical philosophy gives the original and modern shape to the eternal idea of philosophy as the guide to life.
Idea „philosophiae perennis” w Karla Jaspersa egzystencjalnej historiografii filozoficznej
Authors:   Warszawska Wyższa Szkoła Humanistyczna, Reputakowski Piotr
Published: July 2021

The idea of perennial philosophy appears in Jaspers’ writings in connection with philosophical reflection, and metaphysically based and hermeneutically oriented new existential history of philosophy. Eternal philosophy constitutes a necessary condition of working within the area of history of philosophy and of true, philosophical understanding of philosophical texts. Having own phi- losophy and history of philosophy researched from this perspective are nec- essary conditions of creating empirical philosophical historiography and they dictate the way of conducting philosophico-historical research. According to Jaspers the idea of perennial philsophy is connected with basic questions and aspects of philosophical historiography. The questions include: the question concerning the unity and coherence of history of philosophy, the question concerning the beginnings and the source of philosophy, which is connect- ed with the problem of novelty and originality of philosophical thought, the question concerning the development and the possibility of progress in the history of philosophy the question concerning the unique personal identity of philosophy and criteria for establishing the hierarchy and evaluation of philosophers and their thoughts.
Dlaczego w koncepcji Jaspersa postać Jezusa znajduje się poza „czasem osi”?
Authors:   Uniwersytet Pedagogiczny w Krakowie, Wójs Paweł
Published: July 2021

Karl Jaspers’s concept of the Axial Age (German: Achsenzeit), or the unprece- dented age of the highest rise of the human spirit, shows the kinship of people belonging to such different civilizations as Greek, Jewish, Hindu and Chinese. The Axial Age is not only the subject of research for many scholars dealing with the past, but also a possible foundation for the future realization of the peaceful unity of people of the whole Earth. The article focuses on the figure of Jesus, considered by Jaspers as one of the four paradigmatic individuals (German: die maßgebenden Menschen), i.e. people with the greatest influence in the spiritual history of humanity. Therefore, the presence or absence of Jesus in the Axial Age will bring serious consequences. The article presents Jaspers’s arguments for recognizing the period between the 8th and 2nd century BC as the Axial Age, and the possibility of expanding it.
Metafilozoficzny charakter Jaspersa kategorii „ogarniającego”
Authors:   Uniwersytet Pedagogiczny w Krakowie, Urbanek Maciej
Published: July 2021

In this paper I would like to show that Jaspers’ concept of “encompassing” may be regarded as metaphilosophical. The term itself embodies notion of philosophy as fundamentally nonlinear, existential and perpetually open (philosophiae perennis) kind of thinking which structure (described as dialec- tic relation between “what encompasses” and “what is encompassed”) should be regarded as basic form of every source enlightenment. If philosophy aims for that goal, then Jaspers’ periechontology (as analysis of different modes of encompassing) shows us that it can not be realised by any direct insight – by grasping any specific content of cognition. The sole and only way for philos- ophy to reach what is truly transcendent is to inquire the relation between “what is encompassed” and “what encompasses” as a ground on which every subject-object reality is founded.

Optimum planting date for the maximum tuber yield of tropical sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) genotypes in the Old Brahmaputra Floodplain
Authors: Hossain M. M. , Kader M. A. , Kashem M. A.
Published: July 2021

Planting dates for a crop is a non-monetary input but plays a significant role in increasing the yield crop. Therefore, identifying genotype-specific planting dates is essential for obtaining the economic yield of tropical sugar beet. From this perspective, a field experiment was conducted at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University in  Bangladesh, from November 2015 to April 2016. Five sugar beet genotypes: Shubhra, Cauvery, EB-0616, EB-0626, and EB-0809 planted on four dates: 10, 20, 30 November, and 10 December. Treatments were laid out in a split-plot design replicated three times. Data revealed that planting on 10 November date, genotype EB-0809 produced the highest tuber yield, which was significantly superior to any other genotype combined with other planting dates. It was found that every ten days delay of planting from 10 November to 30 December reduced the tuber yield by 30, 43, and 55%, respectively. Results confirmed that planting the EB-0809 genotype on 10 November is ideal to obtain the highest tuber yield of tropical sugar beet in Bangladesh.
La escenografía en el teatro de Manuel Linares Rivas: el espacio y el tiempo

In this paper, I have analyzed some of the most significant spaces in Manuel Linares Rivas’ dramatical work. The main purpose is to suggest a first clasification of their spaces. Also, I have valued the social commitment contained in them. I argue that the stage construction could clarify the probable affiliation of Linares Rivas to a new trend in the drama of the first third of the 20th century
El habla de Madrid a finales del siglo xviii según Los madrileños adoptivos (1790)
Authors:   Universidad de Almería (España), Fernández Martín Elisabeth
Published: July 2021

The focus of this study is to analyse the characteristic phenomena of the linguistic variety spoken in Madrid presented in the manuscript of the short comedy Los madrileños adoptivos (1790), by Antonio González de León, in order to determine if these elements can really be known as dialect linguistic features of that variety in the 18th century. For this, firstly, a contextualization of the work has been carried out, which allows us to understand its uniqueness and ponder its real value as a linguistic testimony. Secondly, the graphic-phonic, morphosyntactic and lexical-semantic phenomena represented in the comedy have been analysed. Furthermore, the address system has been explained, due to the interest that it has at that time and to the knowledge of this linguistic variety.
«María Luisa Villalba» y La Tarde
Authors:   Universidad de La Laguna (España), González González Juana
Published: July 2021

The present work focuses on the first steps of María Rosa Alonso as journalist, specifically her collaboration with the newspaper La Tarde. At that time, she was only twenty years old and she dared to write articles under the pseudonym «María Luisa Villalba». At the beginning of the 20th century it was frowned upon for a woman to write in the journals, and in order to avoid problems, principally with her mother, she decided to silence her true identity. Later this work deals with the young writer in the historical context of the first decades of the xxth century, with a comparison with María Joaquina de Viera y Clavijo, a woman who during the Enlightment also carried out works that, at the time, were unexpected for the feminine condition. Her life shares several similarities with the journalist. We focus on the newspaper La Tarde, its history and how the trust that Víctor Zurita, director of that evening journal, placed in the young scholar was decisive for the beginning of a fruitful professional relationship. We present a thematic classification of her articles, in which we include a brief abstract with some personal assessments, always following the chronological order.
Fictionalising the unspeakable: Guillermo del Toro’s Crimson Peak (2015) as a trauma narrative
Authors:   Universidad de Valencia (España), Pedro Dina
Published: July 2021

Neo-Victorian narratives of trauma display a temporal duplicity in addressing nineteenthcentury traumas that still prevail at present, including natural catastrophes, wars, or more personal and insidious traumas, such as domestic violence and oppression, or child and sexual abuse. In this article, I argue that Guillermo del Toro’s neo-Victorian film Crimson Peak (2015) is constructed as a trauma narrative that exploits the trope of «the uncanny» (Freud 1919) and its main representations –i.e. the double, the return of the dead and repetition compulsion– to address the traumatic experience of gender violence and its impact on both Victorian and contemporary women. Furthermore, I contend that the film functions as a symbolical space where the audience can bear witness to and reflect on the multitemporal trauma of gender violence. That way, viewers can bear witness and develop empathy towards survivors of this traumatic experience.

Igreja e Missão
Authors: Gomes Rita Maria
Published: July 2021

Quando se fala do binômio Igreja e Missão, o primeiro pensamento que vem à mente da maioria das pessoas é o deslocamento de missionários a locais distantes visando a conversão à fé professada por esses missionários, ou seja, é a perspectiva do proselitismo. Mas, a missão é muito mais que isso e, cada vez mais, vai além disso, pois há certo tempo a missão não tem como foco o proselitismo e sim pessoas e comunidades no interior das religiões ou igrejas.
Misión y fronteras: Una perspectiva de teología descolonial
Authors: Mendoza-Álvarez Carlos
Published: July 2021

Pensar la misión del cristianismo en tiempos de crisis civilizatoria es un desafío mayor para la teología del siglo XXI a fin de “dar razón de la esperanza” (1 Pe 3: 15) a nuestras comunidades y pueblos que buscan superar la violencia sistémica que nos aflige. El pensamiento crítico latinoamericano aporta una perspectiva crítica y descolonial que es preciso explorar en clave teológica para discernir los signos de los tiempos mesiánicos por los que la Ruah divina sigue animando a las personas justas de la historia. Este artículo presenta algunas claves de lectura desde la teología fundamental para analizar la misión del cristianismo en las fronteras de hoy, a partir del pensamiento y las prácticas de resistencia que realizan personas y comunidades, como anticipación mesiánica y kairológica, de la redención humano-divina en nuestros tiempos.
Aparecida e missão: notas sobre o percurso para a construção da síntese missionária
Authors: Souza Ney de , Módena Hernane Santos
Published: July 2021

Objetiva-se neste artigo apresentar de maneira sintética e crítica a temática missionária na V Conferência Geral do Episcopado Latino-Americano e Caribenho, Aparecida (2007). A Conferência, acolhendo os ensinamentos da Sagrada Escritura, da Tradição e do Magistério, em consonância com o ensinamento das Conferências Gerais que a precederam à luz da renovação conciliar, desenvolveu bem o binômio “discípulos missionários”, compreendendo que ninguém pode ser missionário sem ser discípulo, como não se pode ser discípulo sem ser missionário. Assim, a última Conferência Geral do Episcopado Latino-Americano e do Caribe, até o momento, significou a síntese da renovação missionária que começou a germinar em Medellín.

Objetivo: A dor é uma das principais queixas do pronto atendimento e torna-se um desafio por ser subjetiva e individual, infligida ou não por uma lesão tecidual. Assim, destaca-se a importância de descrever o tratamento multimodal do paciente adulto com dor aguda na emergência. Revisão bibliográfica: O manejo na terapia multimodal visa a combinação de diferentes classes farmacológicas, ou tratamentos não farmacológicos, esses não muito viáveis no atendimento emergencial. Quanto aos fármacos utilizados temos os anestésicos locais, AINEs e opioides que são os tradicionais, enquanto os anticonvulsivantes, agonistas alfa 2 adrenérgicos e os NMDA são os não tradicionais. Os medicamentos não tradicionais são utilizados como adjuvantes aos opioides ou potenciais substitutos, que visam justamente a melhor adequação da analgesia do paciente diminuindo as doses de opioides e seus efeitos colaterais. No entanto, o tratamento médico de emergência na analgesia é um ponto conflitante, quanto a sua dosagem e efeitos adversos. Considerações finais: O tratamento da dor é sempre individualizado, mas em uma perspectiva ampla as terapias multimodais são boas escolhas no tratamento da dor aguda, principalmente na diminuição da utilização de opioides. Entretanto, ainda é necessário um número maior de estudos para que o manejo seja melhor compreendido.

Objetivo: Analisar as técnicas de tratamento para recessões gengivais e suas associações. Revisão bibliográfica: A recessão gengival é caracterizada pela perda ou diminuição do tecido da gengiva, resultando na perda de inserção e em uma posição mais inferior da margem gengival livre. O tratamento das recessões pode ser realizado através de enxertos de tecido conjuntivo e tem como padrão ouro o enxerto de tecido conjuntivo subepitelial, porém com desvantagem quanto a necessidade de duas áreas cirúrgicas. Existem ainda diversas técnicas que, quando associadas, podem melhorar o prognóstico pós cirúrgico, entre elas a matriz de derme acelular e proteínas da matriz de esmalte.  Podem ser usadas, ainda, as técnicas de retalho posicionado coronalmente, retalho posicionado lateralmente e a técnica de matriz de colágeno xenogênico, que pode tratar múltiplas recessões gengivais, causar menos dor, menor tempo operatório e necessita de uma única área de cirúrgica. Considerações finais: Os procedimentos de recobrimento radicular são de grande importância no tratamento das recessões gengivais. Contudo, independente da técnica escolhida, o tratamento deve ser feito de forma individualizada, levando em conta as características e necessidades de cada paciente.

Authors: Cheng Huifang , Breitbart Gary , Giordano Laura , Richmand David , Wong Geoffrey
Published: July 2021

BACKGROUND: Chronic wounds require frequent assessment, minor procedures, and dressing changes. Discomfort, anxiety, and stress are commonly reported during treatment procedures. PURPOSE: To examine the effect of music during treatment on post–wound care treatment anxiety levels and blood pressure measurements in patients with chronic wounds. METHODS: This randomized controlled trial was conducted in a wound care center within a nonprofit academic medical center with a before-and-after intervention measurement. A total of 222 consecutive patients were randomly allocated to either an intervention group (n = 112; classical music was played during treatment) or a control group (n = 110; no music was played during treatment) at their scheduled routine outpatient visits. The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) was administered and blood pressure measurements were obtained automatically by machine before and after the intervention. Pretreatment and posttreatment scores were compared using the paired t-test in SPSS 25. RESULTS: Patient age and sex did not differ between the intervention and control groups and pretreatment and posttreatment STAI scores; blood pressure measurements were almost identitical in the control group. In the intervention group, statistically significant differences between the pretreatment and posttreatment STAI scores (M = 45.94 and 40.83), systolic blood pressure measurements (M = 141.94 and 135.72), and diastolic blood pressure measurements (M = 70.93 and 66.23) were observed (P < .001). CONCLUSION: In this study, playing classical music in the treatment room during wound care interventions resulted in a significant decrease in patient anxiety scores and blood pressure measurements.

Творчество Карла Николаевича Каля занимает особое место в художественной жизни Дальнего Востока 1910 – 1930х годов. С его именем исследователи связывают становление региональной школы пейзажа и проявление импрессионизма. Он один из немногих художников, кто приехал во Владивосток уже сложившимся мастером, с профессиональным художественным образованием (Дюссельдорфская академия художеств, 1892 – 1898) и внушительным перечнем выставок, среди которых выставка в залах Императорской академии художеств и Всемирная выставка в Сент-Луисе (США). Но, несмотря на активную выставочную деятельность художника и произведения, хранящиеся в Музее искусств города Толедо (США) и других государственных и частных собраниях, творчество художника до приезда во Владивосток по сей день остается малоизученным.

The Karl Nikolayevich Kahls art work takes a special place in the artistic life of the Far East in the 1910 – 1930 years. The formation of the regional school of landscape and manifestation of impressionism are connected with his name according to the researchers opinions. He is one of the few artists, who came to Vladivostok being a formed artist with the professional artistic education (Dusseldorf Art Academy, 1892 – 1898) and with the impressive list of exhibitions, among which there is the exhibition in the halls of the Imperial Art Academy and the World Exhibition in St. Louis (the USA). To the present day the artists art work before coming to Vladivostok, is still poorly studied despite his active exhibition activities and works, kept in the Museum of Art in Toledo (the USA) and in other state and private collections.

Landscape in the works of L. V. Turzhansky
Authors: Филиппова О.Н.
Published: July 2021

Леонард (Леонид) Викторович Туржанский (1875-1945) – один из интереснейших русских художников начала XX века. Его небольшие работы, написанные непосредственно с натуры, отличаются точной и тонкой передачей определенного конкретного состояния природы. Они насыщены светом, солнцем, воздухом. В этих работах чувствуется большая любовь художника к могучей, плодородной, трепетной земле, к окружающему нас миру. Л.В. Туржанский очень скуп в выборе мотивов для своих пейзажей. Родные уральские места, деревня с ее улицами и покосившимися избами, усадьбы, пашни, молодые деревенские лошадки – вот, что волновало и вдохновляло художника. В этом обычном, простом он увидел большую красоту, силу и правду жизни.

Leonard (Leonid) Viktorovich Turzhansky (1875-1945) was one of the most interesting Russian artists of the early XX century. His little works, written directly from nature, their precision and delicate transfer of a specific state of nature. They are full of light, sun, air. In these works, you feel a great love of the artist to the mighty, fertile, quivering earth, to the world around us. L.V. Turzhansky very stingy in choice of motifs for landscapes. Native Ural forests, the village with its streets and rickety houses, mansions, arable land, rural young horses – that's what excited and inspired the artist. In this plain, simple he saw the great beauty, strength and truth of life.
Divestment and Democracy at a Canadian University

Published: July 2021

The campaign to divest the endowment of McGill University from fossil fuel has had amazing success in using scientific knowledge to inspire democratic action. Organizations collectively representing all students and academic staff, and most non-academic staff, have voted overwhelmingly in favor of divestment. There is one small problem, however. Unlike Oxford or Cambridge, where a majority vote among all faculty would be the final word about any and all university policy, McGill suffers rule by a plutocratic Board of Governors. This impairment parallels and connects with the stranglehold the fossil fuel industry has on Canadian environmental policy.
"Crisis, Conspiracy, and Community in Evangelical Climate Denial"
Authors: Ricker Aaron
Published: July 2021

Statistically speaking, American Evangelical Christians are uniquely attracted to apocalyptic conspiracy theories when it comes to the topic of climate change. Since Evangelicals constitute a powerful voting/lobbying/shopping bloc, it is worth asking why this might be the case and what (if anything) can be done about it. To this end, my study considers the relevance of two major cultural tributaries to American Evangelical pop apocalyptic culture. In the first section I consider biblical apocalyptic culture and argue that the characteristic apocalyptic promise to disclose hidden divine plans to a misunderstood but soon-tobe- vindicated elect group naturally entails conspiracy-theory thinking. I argue further that apocalyptic imagination and conspiracy-theory thinking are powerful tools for the definition of identity and community. In the second section I turn my attention to the kind of Evangelical pop apocalyptic culture that helped push climate science denial into the Christian mainstream. I argue that in pop apocalyptic productions like the influential tracts and comics of Jack T. Chick, the image of the elect as the persecuted and powerful bearers of special knowledge found a new lease on life, and continues to fascinate millions with the attractive offer of somebody special to be and somewhere special to belong. I conclude that apocalyptic questions of crisis and conspiracy have a sociological function, as means to the end of defining social identity. Understanding this concrete function of conspiracy-theory thinking in Christian apocalyptic imagination can help in assessing and addressing the troubling phenomenon of Evangelical climate denial.
Baryshok. Enriching colour range of ceramic shapes on clay-based materials of low quality
Authors: Tatski L. N. , Ilina L. V. , Baryshok L. A.
Published: July 2021

Introduction. This article discusses the possibility of expanding the colour palette of a ceramic shard. Due to the shortage of high-quality clay raw materials for the manufacture of plastic molded facing bricks, the problem of manufacturing ceramic wall materials by semi-dry pressing from low-quality clay rocks is urgent.

Materials and methods. The main raw material was non-caking clay raw material with a low content of clay and a high content of silt particles. Some corrective additives were used to expand the colour palette of ceramic bricks. In the article, the authors used both standard methods for determining the physical and mechanical properties and modern methods for studying the phase composition of materials.

Results. The possibility of enriching the colour range of a ceramic shard based on non-sintered clay raw materials has been experimentally confirmed, provided that the mixture contains flux additives. When receiving products with a clarified shard, light-colored flutes should be used.

Conclusion. The possibility of enriching the colour range of a ceramic cap by adding white-burning clay, introducing bleaching and chromophore additives and technogenic products has been established. Due to the differences in the chemical composition of clay raw materials from individual deposits, an individual approach to each of them is required.

Introduction. The article studies the strength of hardened ash-soil materials, with different ratios of pond ash, natural clay soil and lime in various proportions when adding a stabilizing additive “Sattelit”.

Materials and methods. As part of the study, tests were carried out to determine the maximum density of dry soil and the optimal mixture of ash-soil materials (100% ash-and-slag mixture, 25% ash-and-slag and 75% loam and 50% ash-and-slag and 50% loam), and the subsequent determination of the ultimate strength for uniaxial compression at age seven, twenty-eight and ninety days. The samples were gaining strength in the normal hardening chamber. The samples are placed in a device for capillary water saturation of the samples.

Results. As a result of the study, a regularity of the increase in the strength of the soil-ash mixtrues was revealed, depending on the amount of binder, the proportion of materials and the age of the mixture. It was also revealed that with an increase in the dosage of clay soil in the pond ash, the strength of the obtained soil-ash mixtrues sharply increases.

Discussion and conclusion. The results of the studies carried out show the potential possibility of using zoological soil materials fortified with lime when installing an additional layer of the base of highways with capital or lightweight pavement on roads in the I-V road-climatic zone. However, additional research is required to determine the frost resistance and water resistance of zoological soil composites reinforced with lime.
Main classification systems of personal mobility equipment analysis
Authors: Donchenko V. V. , Kupavtsev V. A.
Published: July 2021

Introduction. As a result of the analysis of statistical data on the number of road accidents that occurred with the participation of personal mobility equipment (PME), the main measures to reduce the considered indicator – accident rate are identified. A wide variety of individual means of transportation, which today is typical for many cities of the Russian Federation and is more prevalent in metropolitan cities, leads to a number of problems, including accidents. In order to develop targeted measures necessary to eliminate the problems that arise, it is necessary to develop a specialized classification system that will allow you to assign PME to a certain category, taking into account the main characteristics and, on the basis of this, to develop the necessary requirements for the movement of various categories of PME in an urban environment.

Methods and materials. Increasing the attractiveness of individual vehicles in view of their accessibility and environmental friendliness leads to an increase in their number in the urban environment, which provides prerequisites for changing the urban transport infrastructure and developing certain requirements for their safe movement.

Results. The authors analyze the main classification systems of PME and determine the possibilities of their application for the subsequent solution of related problems that arise when driving PME in an urban environment.

Conclusion. As a result of the analysis of classification systems, a modified classification system is proposed, based on a minimum set of classification features, which allows you to assign different types of PME to one of the proposed classification group according to a certain weight and power characteristics. The ways of further research in this area are determined.
Were we ready? New Zealand high school students' experiences of online learning during school closures of Covid-19, 2020
Authors: Yates Anne , Starkey Louise
Published: July 2021

The Covid-19 pandemic of 2020 resulted in New Zealand schools closing and teaching moving to online. This paper reports research which investigated senior high school students experience of learning from home during these school closures and anything about the experience that they would like continued in the future. High school students in their final two years of schooling (n=1975) responded to a questionnaire consisting of quantitative and qualitative questions with qualitative data analysed thematically and quantitative data with descriptive statistics. Findings revealed that a variety of learning activities, feedback on learning, positive social interactions and effective use of technology supported students. A lack of motivation and daily structure were the major hinderances. The key experience they would like continued was greater flexibility in their learning. Schools demonstrated varying degrees of readiness for the crisis, but findings showed the need for resilience plans which include policies and practices for student and teacher digital readiness in preparation for future crises which result in emergency online learning.
Extending understandings
Authors: McChesney Katrina
Published: July 2021

Mixed methods research is increasingly popular both within and beyond education because of the advantages offered by combining qualitative and quantitative methods. Some mixed methods research, however, does not fully harness the potential or depth that mixed methods has to offer. In this article, I consider some of this potential in terms of how mixed methods research can contribute to addressing “wicked problems,” theory generation, and culturally responsive research. I then discuss two important considerations for quality mixed methods research: appropriate paradigmatic foundations and the genuine integration of qualitative and quantitative components. The article is intended to provide both provocations and resources for those learning about, teaching about, considering, using, or contributing to mixed methods research in education.
From the rākau to the ngākau
Authors: Derby Melissa , Macfarlane Sonja
Published: July 2021

The Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) in Aotearoa New Zealand has funded 11 National Science Challenges (NSC), which aim to tackle a series of big questions affecting wellbeing in society. One Challenge, A Better Start: E Tipu E Rea, is investigating four key focus areas that children encounter in their early development and is seeking to identify the factors that contribute to forming a solid foundation for fostering wellbeing and lifelong success. Central to the principles of this Challenge is the Treaty of Waitangi in that the Treaty provides a framework to guide whānau engagement, policy change, and praxis. This article describes how a ‘ngākau’ rather than a ‘rākau’ approach to shaping research inquiry within this Challenge facilitates more authentic and mana-enhancing whānau engagement in research interactions (Macfarlane, 2019). The development of a whānau questionnaire is drawn on to illustrate the ngākau approach in practice.
Design and optimisation of a laboratory scale microwave furnace for heating titanomagnetite ironsand
Authors: Markwitz Martin
Published: July 2021

TTM (Titanomagnetite) ironsand is an abundant source of iron oxide on the western beaches of the Waikato and Auckland regions in New Zealand, with chemical formula TixFe3-xO4 (x=0.27). This ironsand has been used for the last four decades to produce steel in New Zealand, but the reduction process releases large amounts of carbon dioxide. This is because coal is used as the primary reducing agent. Using hydrogen gas instead as a reducing agent, it is possible to reduce ironsand while avoiding the excessive production of carbon dioxide. In addition, standard electrical heating methods are generally limited by low power transfer rates to the steelmaking reactants. Microwave heating is an alternative heating method, shown to be good candidate for ironsand heating via direct power transfer to the NZ ironsand itself due to its excellent microwave absorbing features. This research focuses on modelling the dynamics of microwave power transfer in a resonant microwave cavity, and refines a computational model to improve the modelling capability of such a process.

Microwave heating is known to demonstrate high direct power transfer rates to microwave absorbing materials, such as TTM ironsand. The microwave heating of ironsand as a candidate heating method is shown in this work by the optimisation of the resonant performance of a custom-built laboratory scale microwave cavity to heat ironsand to over 1000 C. The microwave furnace developed in this work was specifically designed to mimic the contemporary steelmaking standards (i.e., a continuous throughput furnace). A microwave furnace was designed with a computational model, then built and tested in a laboratory. Measurements tracking various energy fluxes throughout the furnace refined an initial transient microwave heating simulation of the computational model with a simple experimental procedure, which exploits the significant variation of the real permittivity (εr) of the ironsand at T = 430 C.

From that experimental procedure, a significant variation in microwave absorption was observed as the ironsand passed through its Curie temperature. This effect was reproduced in an initial transient microwave heating simulation. Experimental results were then used to improve simulation accuracy. This encourages further refinement of the computational model as an avenue for future work in this field.

In summary, this research demonstrates the feasibility of designing a microwave furnace for efficiently heating TTM ironsand. It also exhibits the feasibility of simulating microwave heating of TTM ironsand with a computational model. The results from this thesis show promise for further study on the hydrogen reduction of TTM ironsand within a microwave furnace. The findings therein present results which ‘set the scene’ for for larger-scale zero-CO2 production of techno-economically essential materials via microwave heating.
