A Competency-Based Lens for Exploring Higher Education Opportunities
Authors: Baldwin Dirk , Chalasani Suresh , Ducoffe Robert H. , Ford Deborah L.
Published: November 2022

In the current fast-paced environment, learners want flexibility in timing and content as they seek relevant credentials to be successful. For institutions of higher education (IHEs) to be relevant, they must address the educational needs of learners through a strategy rooted in innovation and agility. The UW Flexible Option (Flex) is the University of Wisconsin System's implementation of competency-based education (CBE). University of Wisconsin-Parkside (UWP) has implemented the Flex Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and a certificate in Project Management that allows learners to master competencies and achieve degree completion at their own pace. This chapter describes UWP's journey, discusses a strategic framework for serving different types of learners, and suggests pathways to implement this framework through a CBE/Flex lens. It offers guidance on how IHEs can plan for the future by focusing on competencies, researching potential markets via the Ansoff Matrix, and implementing successful educational pathways for learners through partnerships.
Seeking Equity, Quality, and Purpose as Higher Education Transforms
Authors: Humphreys Debra , Hinton Mary Dana
Published: November 2022

Taking account of the dramatic shifts in the make-up and educational and social needs of today's college students, the authors explore how to steer future reforms in ways that will advance goals related to equity and educational quality. The chapter begins with an overview of the major trends in who today's students are, what we now know about teaching and learning that advances equitable student success, and the changing global economy and workplace. Building on that analysis, the chapter explores the strengths and weaknesses of unbundling and proposes a potential new avenue for reform in liberal arts colleges making use of both unbundling and “re-bundling” of educational experiences proven to advance quality and equity.
Practical Considerations on How to Document and Transcribe Multi-Modality Learning
Authors: Pittinsky Matthew
Published: November 2022

For the first time in its history, higher education is having to prove its value. Being able to communicate a learner's holistic set of experiences and competencies when they leave an institution is critical both now and in the future. Comprehensive learner records (CLRs) have been created to fill this important role. These are the practical considerations for the creation of CLRs, the steps that should be considered, and how this new credential can be used to assess and document learning that happens inside and outside of the classroom.
Culturally Sustaining Film Pedagogies
Authors: Thiede Max
Published: November 2022

Current film pedagogies strive to incorporate student interest in film analysis and production. Unfortunately, these pedagogies often ignore students' experiences, cultures, and media consumption habits. This chapter creates a framework for culturally sustaining film pedagogy (CSFP) to better support students' identities. To do this, this chapter examines film pedagogies, their flaws, and how they can benefit from incorporating elements culturally sustaining pedagogies. Then, this chapter discusses how two classrooms successfully incorporated CSFP and how students benefitted using interviews, examples, and analysis.
Using Films to Teach Culture in a Flipped Classroom
Authors: Zhang Zhen
Published: November 2022

This chapter discussed incorporating the wedding scenes in Yi-Mou Zhang's Raise the Red Lantern (1991) and Ang Lee's The Wedding Banquet (1993) into a flipped classroom in higher education to teach students traditional Chinese wedding and marriage. The chapter adopted a multimodal perspective, relying on the visual and aural modes to exhibit the traditional Chinese marriage concepts, wedding procedures, activities, participants, decorations, music, colours, and the newlyweds' wedding dresses (attires, makeup, hairstyles) to students. The study demonstrated that films helped the instructor illustrate cultural theories and concepts and promoted students' cultural learning. Students' performance revealed that the flipped model enhances preparatory work and active learning, and embedding films into teaching has benefits and drawbacks.

Mobile-Assisted Language Learning
Authors: Ali Muhammad Mooneeb
Published: November 2022

Learning in today's world is equipped with novel ways and techniques to make learners attracted towards learning. Mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) has been considered as a primary tool for enhancing the performance of learners. However, this phenomenon is missing in developing nations. This chapter, therefore, will attempt to investigate the efficacy of MALL on Pakistani English language learners. Data were collected from the population of 120 learners belonging to private institutes in Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan. Firstly, a pre-test was performed, and two groups were formed, which were equally divided into 60 learners (experimental and controlled). After that, a post-test was conducted, and performance of conventional group and MALL learners was compared. It was found that the experimental group showed significant variations in their performance as compared to conventional learners. Therefore, from the results, it can be concluded that MALL can be integrated and effectively utilized in a local context.

Authors: Das Sima , Ghosh Ahona , Saha Sriparna
Published: November 2022

Constructive and damaging effects of video game playing on the human brain have been emerging areas of study . It has been proved that playing a video game for a certain time also has some advantages like slowing aging, enhancing learning ability, improving hand-eye coordination, and even physical fitness can be improved by playing games associated with sports. However, there are many disadvantages if the player becomes addicted to a specific game. Unfortunately, many scientists proved that video games affect our mental and physical health negatively. It affects our attention, academic performance, and eyesight. Playing it on a daily basis causes aggression and continuously playing the game for a long time directly affects the human brain. Cognitive load is a mental process to detect the current situation of the human mind. The cognitive load is increased when brain complexity increases and vice versa. To detect the cognitive load, electroencephalography by placing electrodes of different positions on the scalp can be used.

Published: November 2022

As it is known that different brain regions have specific functions, and before performing any surgery on the brain, including surgery for the treatment of epilepsy, the surgeon seeks to understand the functions of the areas affected by the seizures or of the lesion. The attempt to specify in as much detail as possible the location of function in the human brain is called brain mapping. In this paper the authors produced real time brain mapping from digitized EEG data recordings. And the authors developed this software to obtain continuous movie map and spectral slide. Nowadays, monitoring various signals from human body is an active area of research and development. Increasingly, monitoring devices are becoming wireless to allow patient mobility. For this aim the authors made it possible to be wireless.

Authors: Carvalho Dayane Pereira Barroso de , Castro Maria Célia Dias de , Jeronimo Gabriela Guimarães
Published: November 2022

Este estudo investigou a correlação entre o arbitrário cultural familiar e a cultura escolar no ensino de gramática. Procurou-se, sumariamente, por meio de investigação bibliográfica e aplicação de questionário on-line, apurar a hipótese de que uma criança com habitus linguístico familiar diferente do habitus linguístico exigido pela escola pode ter maior dificuldade que uma criança detentora de um arbitrário cultural semelhante ao escolar. Os principais autores referenciados neste estudo são Bourdieu e Passeron (2010), Bourdieu (2015), Barrera e Maluf (2004), Moreira (2017), Borges Neto (2013), Silva (2016) e Travaglia (2009). O questionário on-line foi direcionado a estudantes do ensino médio de escola pública centralizada na cidade de Imperatriz/MA. Constatou-se que os fatores econômicos e sociais influenciam fortemente na formação do habitus linguístico, distanciando-o da cultura linguística requerida pelas instituições de educação básica formais.
O ensino de português para negócios através da pedagogia por projetos: ‘O lago dos tubarões’, da televisão à sala de aula
Authors: Graça Luciana
Published: November 2022

Com a internacionalização do português e com o desenvolvimento económico de países de língua portuguesa, temos vindo a assistir a um crescente interesse quer pela aprendizagem do português como língua estrangeira quer por uma sua aprendizagem na sua vertente de negócios. Ao inscreverem-se os falantes nestas aulas de português para negócios, têm estes consciência de que, para uma negociação bem-sucedida com falantes de língua portuguesa, seriam necessárias não só apenas competências linguísticas como também muitas outras competências, como as socioculturais. Neste contexto, a abordagem da pedagogia por projetos revela-se particularmente profícua, atendendo às diversas potencialidades que têm vindo a ser demonstradas em diversas pesquisas desenvolvidas, muito particularmente, no campo do ensino de línguas. Ora, neste nosso artigo, descreveremos uma atividade de projeto implementada, precisamente, numa disciplina de português para negócios, baseada no modelo do programa televisivo ‘O lago dos Tubarões/Shark Tank Brasil’ e num projeto já também adaptado a partir deste mesmo programa televisivo e aplicado numa disciplina de coreano para fins profissionais (Choi, 2018). Os resultados obtidos demonstraram, de facto, a importância desta abordagem, que conduziu, por exemplo, a um desenvolvimento e aperfeiçoamento das capacidades de comunicação dos discentes não só em geral como também, mais especificamente, no campo dos negócios. Além disso, os alunos também puderam construir conhecimento específico, e não apenas linguístico, sobre uma sua importante área de conhecimento, aperfeiçoando também competências que, muito provavelmente, poderão mesmo ter de utilizar, num futuro próximo, no seu campo de atuação profissional.

Evidence for Sign Asymmetry of Exchange Rate Exposure
Authors: Jayasinghe Prabhath
Published: November 2022

This paper attempts to find evidence for sign asymmetry of exchange rate exposure. An extended classification of the sources of asymmetry has been introduced in place of somewhat incomplete classification suggested by previous studies. In addition, a new measure is suggested in order to estimate the overall impact of incorporating sign asymmetry. The study results in several important findings: (a) there is evidence for the presence of sign asymmetry; (b) as it can work in either direction, it is not appropriate lo make generalizations like incorporating sign asymmetry always leading to more/less exchange rate exposure; and (c) the exposure coefficients estimated by the models that do not capture sign asymmetry are likely to under/overestimate the exposure to exchange rate risk.

Authors: Hashemipour Sima , Lalooha Fatemeh , Etemad Fatemeh Sadat , Nozari Fatemeh Habibi
Published: November 2022

Introduction:

Association of a good sleep quality and adequate nocturnal sleep duration with metabolic health has been reported in several epidemiological studies. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of sleep quality and duration on gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) occurrence.

Methods:

In this longitudinal study, 821 pregnant women with the gestational age of ≤14 weeks were included from 2018 to 2020 by convenience sampling. The participants were evaluated in terms of sleep quality using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and nocturnal sleep duration. They were also examined for GDM at gestational weeks 24–28. Two GDM and non-GDM groups were compared regarding sleep quality and duration. The multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the independent association of sleep-related variables with GDM occurrence.

Results:

The final analysis was performed on 658 participants. The means of age and gestational week of the participants were 29.8 ± 4.9 years and 8.8 ± 4.4 weeks, respectively, on inclusion in the study. During follow-up, GDM occurred in 104 (15.8%) participants. Poor sleep quality, sleep quality components, and nocturnal sleep duration showed no significant difference between groups. The frequency of night sleep duration <7 h was higher in the GDM group compared to the non-GDM group (14.4% vs. 7.8%, P = 0.028). However, in the multivariate analysis, there was no independent association between nocturnal sleep <7 h and GDM occurrence.

Conclusion:

Sleep quality, nocturnal sleep duration, and short nocturnal sleep duration had no independent association with GDM occurrence.
Do Perceived Barriers, Benefits, and Severity Have Effect on Mask-Wearing Habits During the Coronavirus Disease-2019 Pandemic?
Authors: Soltani Raheleh , Shamsi Mohsen , Moradi Atefe
Published: November 2022

Introduction:

The centers for disease prevention and control advise wearing a cloth face covering in public to prevent the spread of the coronavirus disease 2019, especially in situations when maintaining social distancing is challenging. As a result, the current study sought to identify the factors influencing mask behavior using constructs from the health belief model (HBM).

Methods:

This cross-sectional study was conducted on 311 participants who were referred to the Health Centers of Arak, Iran, from November 2021 to December 2021. The participants were selected through multi-stage stratified random sampling. Data were collected using a questionnaire and consisted of sociodemographic data, mask-wearing behavior, and structures of HBM regarding mask wearing.

Results:

The participants' mean (standard deviation) age was 37.9 (12) years (ranging from 18–81). The rate of “always” wearing a face mask was 57.9%. Multiple regression analysis revealed that mask-wearing behavior was associated with demographic variables (age and gender), perceived severity (β = 0.17, P < 0.001), perceived benefits (β = 0.24, P < 0.001), and self-efficacy (β = 0.35, P < 0.001). The HBM constructs explained 46% of the variance of mask-wearing behavior (F [9,301] = 30, R = 0.68, [P < 0.001]).

Conclusion:

According to the findings of this study, HBM constructs can be treated as a predictor of mask wearing. Based on this predictor (self-efficacy, perceived severity, and benefits), effective interventions and healthy messages can be designed to improve mask-wearing behavior.
The role of the artificial ponds for the conservation of mammals in the state of Santa Catarina
Authors: Carbonera Mirian , Loponte Daniel , Schneider Bruna
Published: November 2022

Man has profoundly modified the upper valley of the Uruguay River and its basin. The plains of these valleys and the lower areas of the hills have been modified for agricultural production, leaving small patches of wild forest on the tops of the hills, where wildlife takes refuge. These less modified sectors generally lack water. Therefore, the wild mammals must descend to the bottom of the valleys to drink. However, there are numerous fence lines between the hills and the rivers and streams which prevent the fauna access to these watercourses, so they ingest water from artificial ponds present in the agricultural establishments instead, which is reflected in the high values of δ18O observed in the bone bioapatite of local wild mammals. This finding highlights the importance of artificial reservoirs distributed in the agricultural landscape of Santa Catarina for the preservation of wildlife and the importance of their sanitary monitoring to prevent the transmission of diseases from livestock to wildlife.

Keywords: artificial ponds, Oxygen-18, Santa Catarina, stable isotopes, wildlife preservation.
A simple system for ozone application in domestic sewage for agricultural reuse
Authors: Voltolini Lisiana Crivelenti , Bastos Reinaldo Gaspar , Souza Claudinei Fonseca
Published: November 2022

The increasing demand for water in food production highlights the need to seek alternative sources of supply. Treated domestic sewage is a way to mitigate this problem, but it must comply with legislation to be used safely in agriculture. Ozone has been used for disinfection of domestic effluents due to its strong oxidizing character, allowing the adjustment of its parameters for agricultural reuse. This study therefore aimed to evaluate the sanitary and agricultural viability of domestic effluent treated with ozone. The experiment was carried out on laboratory benchtops and doses of 0, 8, 15, 30, 45, and 60 mg L−1 of ozone were applied. The application time for each dose was 0, 14, 27, 54, 81, and 108 seconds, respectively. Microbiological, physical, and chemical parameters were evaluated: total coliforms, Escherichia coli, pH, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, electrical conductivity, total organic carbon, total nitrogen, total phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, calcium, and sodium. Ozonation did not significantly alter the physical and chemical composition of wastewater, indicating an important advantage in terms of potential agricultural reuse. However, the pathogenic load of E. coli was not reduced enough for the effluent to be used in agriculture. The results suggest an investigation of the effects of ozone on the efficiency of sewage treatment, seeking to understand these interactions to identify ideal doses and exposure time, making wastewater safe for agricultural reuse.

Keywords: agriculture, ozonation, treated effluent.
Evolving IT Sourcing Strategies in the German Automotive Industry: A Blueprint for Managing Transition
Authors:   , Felser Kirstin
Published: November 2022

This thesis examines how and why the German automotive industry is changing IT sourcing strategies in response to the implications of digital transformation. Due to megatrends such as decarbonisation and digitalisation, the industry is undergoing its greatest transformation in its existence. The future success of the industry depends heavily on the level of digital innovation, for which IT sourcing is becoming a strategic function to provide critical capabilities and resources. The industry has made a strategic shift and recognised software as a key technology that will dictate long-term success in global markets. Transformation processes have begun to span the areas of digital processes and automation, connected cars, and mobility services to facilitate software-enabled automotive companies. This is leading to new IT sourcing models in a variety of configurations. This research is based on the constructivist perspective, with its associated interpretative research methodology. The thesis centres on a single-case study of the German automotive industry as a whole, where a change in the ratio between insourcing and outsourcing has a significant impact on in-house employment and third-party business operations. The approach is qualitative and started with an online survey for framing areas of discussion for the subsequent 19 semi-structured interviews with IT managers and sourcing experts. The analysis of the findings resulted in 15 emerging themes and the development of a blueprint for the transitioning of IT sourcing management, requiring a redistribution of IT responsibilities between Business and Corporate IT. The blueprint contributes to both theory and practice. The principles for a reallocation of IT sourcing responsibilities and the resultant organisational consequences are set out. The blueprint can be set alongside existing models of sourcing transition, and acts as a guide for practitioners in the automotive sector charged with overseeing change in sourcing management in the digital era.
Inductive and Coinductive Topological Generation with Church's thesis and the Axiom of Choice
Authors: Maietti Maria Emilia , Maschio Samuele , Rathjen Michael
Published: November 2022

In this work we consider an extension MFcind of the Minimalist Foundation MF
for predicative constructive mathematics with the addition of inductive and
coinductive definitions sufficient to generate Sambin's Positive topologies,
namely Martin-L\"of-Sambin formal topologies equipped with a Positivity
relation (used to describe pointfree formal closed subsets). In particular the
intensional level of MFcind, called mTTcind, is defined by extending with
coinductive definitions another theory mTTind extending the intensional level
mTT of MF with the sole addition of inductive definitions. In previous work we
have shown that mTTind is consistent with Formal Church's Thesis CT and the
Axiom of Choice AC via an interpretation in Aczel's CZF+REA. Our aim is to show
the expectation that the addition of coinductive definitions to mTTind does not
increase its consistency strength by reducing the consistency of mTTcind+CT+AC
to the consistency of CZF+REA through various interpretations. We actually
reach our goal in two ways. One way consists in first interpreting
mTTcind+CT+AC in the theory extending CZF with the Union Regular Extension
Axiom, REA_U, a strengthening of REA, and the Axiom of Relativized Dependent
Choice, RDC. The theory CZF+REA_U+RDC is then interpreted in MLS*, a version of
Martin-L\"of's type theory with Palmgren's superuniverse S. A last step
consists in interpreting MLS* back into CZF+REA. The alternative way consists
in first interpreting mTTcind+AC+CT directly in a version of Martin-L\"of's
type theory with Palmgren's superuniverse extended with CT, which is then
interpreted back to CZF+REA. A key benefit of the first way is that the theory
CZF+REA_U+RDC also supports the intended set-theoretic interpretation of the
extensional level of MFcind. Finally, all the theories considered, except
mTTcind+AC+CT, are shown to be of the same proof-theoretic strength.

В статье рассмотрены основные причины выгорания педагогов, работающих вблизи (0-15 км) контактной линии между украинской армией и отрядами сепаратистов на востоке Украины, а также результаты работы по реабилитации учителей. Исследование проводилось в три этапа, использовались индивидуальные интервью, групповые фокусированные интервью и опросник профессионального стресса. Был выявлен одинаково высокий уровень выгорания у педагогов, работающих в контактной зоне, и тех, кто работает на расстоянии 60 – 80 км от зоны боевых действий. Исследование зафиксировало существенное снижение уровня эмоционального истощения и деперсонализации учителей после тренинга преодоления профессионального выгорания и последующих девятимесячных практических занятий. Значительную роль в преодолении выгорания сыграло изменение социального самочувствия учителей – участников программы профилактики выгорания.

Проблема диагностики профессиональной ответственности субъектов труда является актуальной в условиях нестабильности современного мира и бизнеса. Увеличивается количество форм управления компанией и орга- низации труда работников (включая agile, виртуальные организации), воз- растает важность надпрофессиональных компетенций работников в зави- симости от специфики компаний. Анализ существующих методик и субш- кал оценки ответственности показал их ограниченность для применения при отборе и развитии работников, представление о шкале «ответствен- ность – безответственность» можно считать упрощенным. В статье рассматривается диагностический комплекс, который включает систему координат с двумя переменными: 1) тип организационной культуры; 2) тип профессиональной ответственности. Типы организационной культуры при первом приближении разделены на структурно-иерархические (поддержи- вающие объектную позицию работника, исполнительскую дисциплину) и субъектно-ресурсные (ориентированные на субъектную позицию работ- ника и возможность творческого решения профессиональных задач). Профессиональная ответственность рассматривается системно и включает личностный (объектной, исполнительской или субъектной управленческой позиции работника), культурный (преследование индивидуальных целей в организации или командных), деятельный (решение задач «здесь и сейчас» или учитывая стратегические вероятности) компоненты.

При таком лечении воздействию терапевти- ческой радиации неизбежно подвергаются нормальные структуры на стороне расположения опухоли, в том числе - гиппокамп. Участниками исследования были 23 пациента с менингиомами хиазмально-селлярной области (12 с левосторонним расположением опухоли и 11 с правосторон- ним). Больных исследовали двукратно: до начала лучевого лечения и сразу после его окончания. Контрольную группу составили 40 здоровых испытуемых, также дважды выполнивших задания исследования. Были получены факты, свидетельствующие об эффекте перераспределения зрительного внимания при лучевом воздействии на правое полушарие мозга. Выдвигается гипотеза о большей уязвимости правого полушария к воздействию радиации.

В статье приводятся данные исследования имплицитной и эксплицитной оценки отношения к здоровью. Объектом выступили 101 респондент, в среднем возрасте 24 года и стажем работы около 3-х лет. Измерялись: имплицитная оценка интрасубъектных факторов профес- сионального здоровья (компьютерная методика «Ментальная карта здоровья»), эксплицитная оценка интрасубъектных факторов профессио- нального здоровья (методика «Тип отношения к болезни»), состояние здо- ровья (опросник ВОЗ-26 для оценки качества жизни). Результаты. Респонденты, имеющие положительную имплицитную оценку отношения к здоровью и болезни характеризуется более высокими показателями здоровья. Респонденты, имеющие отрицательную имплицит- ную оценку отношения к здоровью и болезни характеризуется тревожным отношением к здоровью. Респонденты с разной имплицитной оценкой отношения к здоровью имеют различное состояние здоровья и различия в эксплицитной оценке здоровья. Таким образом, интрасубъектные факторы профессионального здоровья имеют различия в эксплицитной и имп- лицитной оценке и соотносятся с состоянием здоровья.
ТЕОРИЯ Д. Н. УЗНАДЗЕ КАК КОНЦЕПЦИЯ ЛИЧНОСТИ
Authors: Имедадзе И. В.
Published: November 2022

Общепсихологическая теория установки Д. Н. Узнадзе направлена на решение фундаментальных методологических задач, охватывает основные категории психологии: сознание, бессознательное, поведение, личность. Она релевантна в отношении всех проявлений психической активности на любом уровне филогенеза, онтогенеза и актуалгенеза, направлена на изучение универсального механизма детерминации поведения. Вместе с тем, в ней представлена система взглядов о специфической человеческой активности, т.е. она включает в себя теорию личности, охватывающую такие темы как: структура личности, мотивация, развитие личности, психопатология, психическое здоровье и изменение личности путём психокоррекционого (психотерапевтического) влияния. Последняя тема не разработана ещё в должной мере и представляет собой один из векторов дальнейшего развития данной концепции.
СПОСОБЫ ПРЕОДОЛЕНИЯ АРМЯНСКИМИ И РУССКИМИ ПОДРОСТКАМИ МЕЖКУЛЬТУРНЫХ КОММУНИКАТИВНЫХ ТРУДНОСТЕЙ
Authors: Самохвалова А.Г.
Published: November 2022

В статье представлены результаты исследования коммуникативных трудностей, которые испытывают армянские (n = 50; М = 13,9) и русские (n = 50; М = 14,1) подростки в возрасте 13-15 лет в ситуациях межкультурного общения. Выявлены социокультурные различия коммуникативных трудностей и способов их преодоления. Описаны конструктивные способы преодоления коммуникативных трудностей (поиск решения проблемы, социальная поддержка, смена деятельности, исправление собственных ошибок, положительная переоценка) и неконструктивные (манипуляции, агрессия, буллинг, кибербуллинг, ложь, саморазрушающее поведение). Охарактеризованы ресурсы, помогающие армянским и русским подросткам преодолевать трудности, возникающие в межкультурном диалоге.
ЗАЩИТА ГРАНИЦ Я У ДЕТЕЙ 2 – 10 ЛЕТ
Authors: Силина О.В.
Published: November 2022

Защита границ Я – это система действий, направленных на сохра- нение физического и психологического благополучия. Семейная система предполагает определенное распределение ресурсов. Однако в психологической науке отсутствует единое мнение о роли статуса сиблинга в развитии личности ребенка. Гипотезой нашего исследования является предположение о том, что защита границ Я у единственных, первых и вторых детей будет качественно различаться. Выборка состояла из 108 детей в возрасте от 2 до 10 лет. Исследование носило качественный характер, основными методами являлись включенное наблюдение, моделирование ситуаций. Было показано, что единственные и вторые дети в семье обладают максимально адаптивными границами, с четко выстроенной системой защиты собственного психологического пространства с ориентацией на личное отношение к социальной ситуации. Первенцы же защищают свои границы, опираясь на социальные нормы, правила или мнение взрослого. Таким образом, исследование де- монстрирует влияние статуса сиблинга на стратегию защиты границ Я.
ВИЗУАЛИЗАЦИЯ КУЛЬТУРЫ В МУЗЕЙНЫХ ПРАКТИКАХ МИРОТВОРЧЕСТВА: ОПЫТ И ПЕРЕЖИВАНИЕ
Authors: Ionesov V. I.
Published: November 2022

В настоящей статье рассматриваются возможности сборки и расширения нового культурного поля миротворчества, в котором музеи мира будут не только эффективно показывать гуманистический потенциал своих коллекций (наследия), но и открывать миротворческие возможности в пространстве обыденной жизни людей, тем самым придавая ценность тому, что её не имело или всё ещё оставалось не очевидно значимым для музейной работы. Есть два сценария достижения этого: 1) музей мира (с его артефактами наследия/памяти) своими социальными проектами инкорпорируется в культуру повседневности (обыденной жизни) людей и 2) лучшие образцы опыта обыденной жизни прикрепляются к актуальной практике музея, обретая статус культурной ценности.
ПСИХО-ФИЗИОЛОГИЧЕСКИЕ ОСОБЕННОСТИ НАУЧНОЙ ДЕЯТЕЛЬНОСТИ ПОЖИЛОГО ПРЕПОДАВАТЕЛЯ В УНИВЕРСИТЕТЕ
Authors: Кассал Б. Ю.
Published: November 2022

Возрастные психо-физиологические особенности развития мозга сле- дует учитывать при использовании пожилых ученых-преподавателей уни- верситета. Без создания конкурентной среды реализация их способностей не является максимально возможной; критерием эффективности должна быть оценка их проектной деятельности за последние 3(5) лет с удовлетворением позиций, по которым оценивается инновационная деятельность университета. Несовершенство современной системы аккре- дитации высших учебных заведений ведет к отсутствию научных школ и стагнации в долговременной ротации научно-педагогических кадров. С уходом пожилых преподавателей из штата университетов они должны вовлекаться в деятельность общественных организаций.
ОПЫТ ИСПОЛЬЗОВАНИЯ ВЕБ-ТЕХНОЛОГИЙ В ИЗУЧЕНИИ МНЕМИЧЕСКОГО “GOOGLE-ЭФФЕКТА”

В данной работе представлен опыт использования веб-технологий (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) при изучении мнемического “Google-эффекта”. Данный эффект заключается в тенденции забывать информацию после ее сохранения на компьютер (Sparrow, Liu, Wegner, 2011). Настоящая работа исследует, сохранится ли “Google-эффект” при наличии у респондента эксплицитной мнемической цели запомнить материал. Иными словами, изучалась специфика взаимодействия компьютерных операций с мнемическими целями, связанная с воспроизведением материала. Семьдесят студентов-добровольцев (10 мужского пола) приняли участие в компьютерной игре, где имитировалась деятельность частного детектива. Благодаря возможностям сбора различного рода данных через веб-интерфейс, уда- лось проанализировать результаты несколькими способами, что сподвигло нас к дальнейшему развитию понимания природы “Google-эффекта”.

PERCEPTION OF WORK IN DIFFERENT RELIGIOUS SYSTEMS
Authors: Hayrapetyan D. R.
Published: November 2022

The issue of employment for the human being has always been central to all periods of time and this has caused great attention in both scientific and religious systems. The work as a phenomena came into psychology in the 19th century due to the American psychologist F. Taylor, later G. Emerson paid attention on it and after that representatives of the American Social- Psychological School. In the above mentioned era, the efficiency of the workers was a primary issue, but along with the development of the field, the raised issues were also increased. Nowadays, one of the primary issues of organizational psychology are the choice of employee, work motivation and job management. While discussing the issue of choosing an employee in professional literature, a great attention is paid both on the employee's professional abilities and personality traits. Nevertheless, different religious systems, even during the creation of their saint books, have clearly described how working relationships should be, who should be accept to the certain work, how to work, and how to pay the worker. So this article is directed to the research how different religious systems refer to work and how experts interpret it.
