Authors: Md. Jahangir Alam  , Aktar Tahmina
Published: July 2021

Good curriculum plays a crucial role in forging life-long learning competencies, social attitudes and skills for the learners. Besides it is self-evident that, curriculum plays an important role in shaping a nation’s future. For obvious reasons, it has been the focal point of stakeholders’ interests for decades. Formulating an effective curriculum has been a decade-long pursuit for many nations’ education-history. For similar reasons countries like Bangladesh and Saudi Arabia stand at a historic threshold of decision making regarding their countries curriculum. Both the countries share some common challenges with respect to their curriculum development and implementation from the various sectors of society. All these education-challenges and..... all the experiences that occur within the school or other learning context- what is intended and what actually becomes a reality in the sphere of curriculum and teaching (Pinar, 2000) are the subjects of this paper.

Leptadenia hastata and Anisopus mannii – are perennial plants of family Asclepiadaceae. They are widely distributed in West Africa and are locally used as anti-diabetic agents in Northern Nigeria. This study was conducted to investigate the phytochemical constituent and antibacterial activity of the crude ethanol extract of the Leptadenia hastata and Anisopus mannii against some bacterial isolates from diabetic wound. The phytochemical screening was carried out using standard protocol and antibacterial activity was determined by agar well diffusion method followed by minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) on the plant extract that showed activity. Result of phytochemical screening reveals the present of tannins, phenols, flavonols, saponins, and alkaloids in all the plants extract except in Anisopus mannii where alkaloid is absent. Also, result from antibacterial activity of leptadenia hastata demonstrated inhibition zones ranging from 11.5±0.71 to 20.0±0.00 at various concentrations (8mg/ml and 4mg/ml) against the tested organisms (Citrobacter specie, E.coli, Proteus vulgaris.) with MIC and MBC values ranging from 2mg/ml-8mg/ml. Hence, the ethanol extract of Leptadenia hastata can be considered as new therapeutic agent for the treatment of diabetic wound infection. Further studies need to be carried out to investigate toxicological effect and diabetic wound healing property of the plant.

Authors: Abdullahi Muhammad , Musa Hamisu
Published: July 2021

This paper modified an existing 3–point block method for solving stiff initial value problems.  The modification leads to the derivation of another 3 – point block method which is suitable for solving stiff initial value problems.  The method approximates three solutions values per step and its order is 5. Different sets of formula can be generated from it by varying a parameter ρ ϵ (-1, 1) in the formula. It has been shown that the method is both Zero stable and A–Stable. Some linear and nonlinear stiff problems are solved and the result shows that the method outperformed an existing method and competes with others in terms of accuracy

The article analyzes the problems of studying patriotic and military-patriotic education in the Russian Federation. The authors found that in most pedagogical studies, the emphasis is on the patriotic education of schoolchildren and the preparation of future teachers for this activity. The patriotic education of future defenders of the Fatherland is studied by scientists on the basis of specific educational institutions. In the historical aspect, the features of military-patriotic education are presented in works devoted to a specific period of history and a separate region. It was revealed that the features of the organization of patriotic education in the 1980s are manifested in the activation of the military-patriotic work of the pioneer and Komsomol organizations and in teaching different school subjects. In the 1990s there was a decrease in the level of militarypatriotic education, its importance in the theory and practice of education ceases to be relevant. Since the early 2000s the issues of patriotic education get more attention at the state level, there was an awareness of its importance for the development of the country and increase of its defence capability, the number of scientific research works on this problem increased. Military-patriotic education in the policy of the state faded into the background, family and civic education became a priority.
Internet Discourse as a Form of Speech
Authors:   Ulyanovsk State Pedagogical University named after I.N. Ulyanov, Ulyanovsk, Lipatova Antonina P.
Published: July 2021

Traditionally, there are distinguished two forms of speech (oral and written). In the era of widespread digitalization, a new (computer-mediated) communication is emerging. The question arises, what form of speech generates a new type of communication, a special - hybrid - form of speech (“oral-written”) or a variety of existing forms. An attempt to answer this question is the task of the article. During the research it was found that the nature of this form is hybrid: it organically combines the beginning of both oral discourse and written speech. At the same time oral and written speech has its own pragmatics, which is different from the pragmatics of known forms of speech. If oral speech is designed to promote communication, written speech is designed to preserve information, then oralwritten discourse is a platform for the realization and manifestation of the individuality of the author of speech. The author of oral and written speech creates his identity, recreates the image of his “I” anew. Hence the leading “modus” of oral and written speech. Oral speech is “over-phonetic”: it has a rich arsenal of verbal and non-verbal means for conveying information, as well as for expressing emotions. Written speech has almost no extra-linguistic, additional means of expression, it is super-grammatical. In the context of oral-written discourse, the individual expresses himself (builds or transforms an already created image) often by playing with the form. Oral-written discourse on the Internet is “super graphic”. The peculiarity of representatives of generation Z lies in the almost simultaneous (parallel) mastery of written and oral-written speech. This cannot but affect the process of mastering writing skills by modern adolescents

Published: July 2021

The article deals with the problem of developing the skill of semantic reading in the fourth-graders in the process of making annotations to works of art. The need to develop the skill of semantic reading is confirmed by the requirements of the federal state educational standard of primary general education. The question of the selection of methodological techniques, exercises, forms and means aimed at developing the semantic reading skills of younger schoolchildren remains relevant. The article analyzes the research of domestic scientists and individual teachers-practitioners on the formation of semantic reading skills and on teaching younger students to make annotations in primary school. The authors found that in these studies, there is no relationship between learning to annotate and the development of semantic reading skills. The purpose of the article is to determine the conditions for the development of semantic reading skills in fourth-graders in the process of writing annotations to works of art. To achieve this goal, a pedagogical study was conducted. As a result of the research, a step-by-step program for teaching children to make annotations to read works and a workbook “Learning to make annotations” were developed and experimentally tested. The theoretical significance of the study is to expand the known ideas about the development of the semantic reading skill of primary school students in the process of purposeful teaching them to compose annotations to works of art.

Published: July 2021

The article deals with the problem of developing the ability of third-graders to retell a work of art in the process of creating a cartoon. The authors turn to the research of Russian scientists devoted to retelling as an interpretation of a literary text, reveal the concept, meaning, classification and stages of the retelling. The possibilities of the method of creating a cartoon in the development of children’s ability to retell a work of art are determined. This is possible under specially created conditions: compliance with all stages of work on a work of art, the inclusion of third-graders in joint creative activities to create a series of illustrations for the episodes of the work, conducting a clear and understandable instruction in the computer program for creating a cartoon from a series of illustrations, compliance with the stages of creating a cartoon based on the read work. The authors developed and experimentally tested a series of classes aimed at developing the ability to retell a work of art. Quantitative data on the evaluation of their effectiveness using a specially developed diagnostic technique are presented. The effectiveness of the tested classes in the development of the ability to retell a work of art through the creation of a cartoon is empirically proven. This article will be useful for primary school teachers.
State Academy of Arts: Traditions and Modernity. Part 1: Inexhaustible History
Authors:   Russian presidential academy of national economy and public administration, Moscow, Guseltseva Marina S.
Published: July 2021

The State Academy of Arts (SAA) represents the phenomenon of Russian culture at the beginning of the 20th century, still the research interest in SAA has not been exhausted to this day. Its appearance is due to the configuration of random factors, unintentional social actions, as well as the implicit, inertial development of prerevolutionary cultural movements in the first decade of the Soviet era. Interdisciplinarity, the search for a synthesis of arts acted as a kind of trail of the Silver Age, the aftertaste of the interrupted era, continuation of its life outburst. After all, cultural traditions are not transformed swiftly and radically together with the political and economic changes, they have a time lag, lasting and dissolving in the changed modernity. They are modified, incorporated into reality under different names, merging with the mainstream of the era or dissipating into the marginal ones. From this perspective, the State Academy of Arts was a scientific structure, on the one hand, surprising in its strangeness for the Soviet era, and on the other hand, congenial to the Silver Age already left behind. The Academy not only preserved and extended the pre-revolutionary intellectual culture in the already changed country, but also itself was fed by the energy of the changes being created. Thus, along with a conscious orientation to interdisciplinarity and synthesis by art, the Academy combined “antiquity” and “novelty”, integrated tendencies of conservation and change in culture.

Our research presents the results of experimental work of dialogical speech mastering during individual English lessons. After years of studying English language in a secondary school many students have various difficulties, both linguistic and psychological during communicating with native speakers. With the help of individual lessons, it is easier for teachers to adjust the learning process and fill in the gaps in the student’s communicative competence. One of the main conditions for organizing a dialogue is creating an atmosphere of trust and benevolence, freedom and mutual understanding. In addition to the traditional methods, rolebased communication, BYOD technology and a set of dialogized exercises for audio and video materials were used during one-to-one classes. The control test showed that students of the experimental group have a higher level of proficiency in dialogue skills.

Published: July 2021

The development of natural language processing resources for Albanian has grown steadily in recent years. This paper presents research conducted on unsupervised learning-the challenges associated with building a dictionary for the Albanian language and creating part-of-speech tagging models. The majority of languages have their own dictionary, but languages with low resources suffer from a lack of resources. It facilitates the sharing of information and services for users and whole communities through natural language processing. The experimentation corpora for the Albanian language includes 250K sentences from different disciplines, with a proposal for a part-of-speech tagging tag set that can adequately represent the underlying linguistic phenomena. Contributing to the development of Albanian is the purpose of this paper. The results of experiments with the Albanian language corpus revealed that its use of articles and pronouns resembles that of more high-resource languages. According to this study, the total expected frequency as a means for correctly tagging words has been proven effective for populating the Albanian language dictionary.
Reproductive characteristics, diet composition and fat reserves of nose-horned vipers (Vipera ammodytes)
Authors: Andelkovic Marko
Published: July 2021

Long-term ecological studies are usually both time-consuming and costly, particularly when conducted on species with low detectability, such as vipers. An alternative, non-expensive method for obtaining detailed information about numerous important ecological traits, e.g. size at maturity, reproductive output, diet composition and amount of body reserves, are dissections of museum specimens. We dissected 237 museum specimens (125 males and 112 females of all age classes) of the nose-horned vipers Vipera ammodytes from the central and western regions of the Balkan Peninsula. Their reproductive and digestive systems were examined, and fat stores estimated. Relative testes volumes were significantly higher in adults than in subadults. Also, we found seasonal variation of testes volumes in adult males. Females became mature at around 43.8 cm snout-to-vent length (SVL); 38.1 % of adult females were pregnant (i.e. had developed eggs/embryos, suggesting bi- or even triennial reproduction frequency). The average number of developed eggs/embryos was 9.1 (range 5–17). As expected, there was a positive correlation between maternal body size (SVL) and the number of embryos. The nose-horned vipers fed predominately on lizards (64.7 %) and mammals (31.9 %); only a few remains of different prey were found (birds, snakes and centipedes). Analyses of inter-sexual differences showed that males more frequently consumed lizards than mammals, while in females both types of prey were equally present. A subtle ontogenetic change in diet was recorded, with a shift from lizards towards mammals. Adult individuals had more fat reserves than subadults, but there were no inter-sexual differences, and gravid females had similar amounts of fat reserves as non-gravid individuals. The data about reproductive output and dietary specialisation demonstrate the vulnerability of the species, generally regarded as “quite common” and non-threatened. This study might help in the establishment of future conservation studies, and management of the impacts of anthropogenic factors on populations of V. ammodytes in the central and western Balkans.

Introducción: El traumatismo craneoencefálico (TCE) secundario a heridas por arma de fuego (HPAF) es una situación crítica. El proyectil de un arma de fuego puede penetrar al organismo por cualquier región originando lesiones de morfología variada por múltiples factores. El lugar de entrada del proyectil (orificio) puede tener diámetros pequeños, que escapa a la observación del médico de asistencia, en estas circunstancias se hacen indispensables las técnicas radiológicas como diagnóstico y paso previo a la necropsia judicial. Metodología: Se realizó una revisión y anàlisis de la bibliografia sobre los traumatismos craneoencefálicos por disparo de arma de fuego, se pudo identificar orificios o heridas de entrada por orificios naturales u otras regiones del cuerpo, no así por localizaciones poco comunes como en este caso, siendo preciso realizar estudiós tomográficos para localizar el proyectil, lo que permitió tenerlo como referencia en pròximos casos. Conclusiones: La víctima presentó lesiones, con severo traumatismo craneoencefálico. La tomografía mostró la presencia de un cuerpo extraño intracerebral, semejante a un proyectil. La herida estaba formada por un orificio de entrada atípico, en región anatómica, poco común y un trayecto. En la necropsia realizada se extrajo la bala. En el análisis de balística resulto ser un calibre 22, de fabricación no industrial, usado en un arma atípica e improvisada. Las lesiones intracraneales fueron severas y por un mecanismo directo ocasionaron la muerte del lesionado. El caso se cerró como un homicidio.

Authors: Adhidhuto Linus Setyo
Published: July 2021

Candi Mendut hanya berjarak 27 meter dari jalan raya. Banyaknya kendaraan yang melintas pada jalan tersebut terutama kendaraan berat seperti truk dan bus menimbulkan kekhawatiran akan kelestarian candi tersebut. Getaran yang timbul dari kendaraan tersebut bila mengenai struktur candi dengan frekuensi tertentu dan dalam intensitas yang besar akan berpotensi menimbulkan kerusakan pada candi.

Pengukuran respon getaran dilakukan pada bagian atap dan lantai candi untuk dapat mengetahui apakah getaran yang timbul akibat lalu lintas telah melebihi batas ambang getaran. Pengukuran getaran menggunakan accelerograph yang dapat mengukur getaran dalam 3 arah / triaxial. Untuk dapat mengetahui faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi besarnya getaran yang timbul maka dilakukan percobaan respon getaran pada tanah dengan variasi kecepatan kendaraan dan berat kendaraan.

Dari pengukuran yang telah dilakukan pada Candi Mendut, ternyata respon getaran yang dihasilkan akibat lalu lintas jalan raya masih di bawah batas ambang getaran. Dari hasil percobaan juga diketahui bahwa kecepatan dan berat kendaraan berbanding lurus dengan besarnya getaran yang ditimbulkan.

Автори наголошують, що одним з ефективних засобів навчання української мови як іноземної є мультимедійні презентації, створені в програмі PowerPoint, які забезпечують реалізацію принципу візуалізації та полегшують засвоєння лексико-фразового матеріалу. Також у дослідженні описано організацію дистанційного навчання у Вищому державному навчальному закладі України «Буковинський державний медичний університет», а саме: створення та функціонування сервера дистанційного навчання та електронного журналу успішності на безкоштовній електронній навчальній платформі Moodle, що сприяє аудиторному і позааудиторному вивченню як спеціальних медичних дисциплін, так і предметів суспільно-гуманітарного циклу, до яких належить українська мова як іноземна. Визначено, що ефективною технологією вивчення української мови як іноземної є створення ментальних карт за допомогою таких Інтернет-сервісів, як-от: Cliffy; Mindomo; Spinscape; MAPMYself; MindMeister; Bubbl.us; SpiderScribe. Здійснено критичний аналіз українських сайтів дистанційного навчання української мови іноземців, зокрема http://www.speakukraine.net; http://www. ukrainianlessons.com та ін. Виокремлено мобільні додатки, створені в Україні та діаспорі, що найбільш адаптовані для вивчення української мови як іноземної. Закцентовано увагу на тому, що використання інформаційно-комунікаційних технологій у процесі засвоєння мови сприяє організації самостійної пошукової роботи студентів-іноземних громадян. Зазначено, що подальші пошуки можуть бути спрямовані на вдосконалення професійно-комунікативної компетентності іноземних студентів-медиків шляхом запровадження нових ІКТ, зокрема хмарних освітніх технологій, розроблення концепцій електронних інтерактивних підручників з української мови як іноземної.
ТЕСТУВАННЯ ЗАГАЛЬНОЇ НАВЧАЛЬНОЇ ПРАВНИЧОЇ КОМПЕТЕНТНОСТІ: ЛОГІКО-МЕТОДОЛОГІЧНИЙ ІНСТРУМЕНТАРІЙ ТА ЕЛЕКТРОННИЙ КУРС ДЛЯ ПІДГОТОВКИ ДО ВСТУПНОГО ВИПРОБУВАННЯ

У статті досліджується використання логічного знання як методологічного інструментарію для побудови та вирішення тестів загальної навчальної правничої компетентності (ТЗНПК), що впроваджені у вищу юридичну освіту для відбору вступників на магістерські програми правничого спрямування. Уперше в Україні, відповідно до вимог сучасного суспільства, на базі платформи MOODLE створено та впроваджено в навчання електронний курс «Практична логіка: тренінг інтелектуальних здібностей» для підготовки до вступних випробувань на магістерські програми за спеціальністю 081 «Право». У ньому запропоновано узагальнення логічної методології і методики вирішення тестових завдань згідно з їх типологізацією, а також переосмислено практичне значення логіки для успішного проходження тестування за рівнями сформованості в учасників загальної навчальної правничої компетентності. Презентовані результати науково-практичних досліджень, що викладені в авторському посібнику «Підготовка до складання ТЗНПК в завданнях та рішеннях: логічний підхід». За принципами розумності права визначена специфіка використання логічних форм і методів, що впроваджуються в юридичній методології, їх необхідність як інструментарію в правознавчій аналітиці та юридичній практиці. Зроблені висновки щодо значення логічної культури для успішного проходження ТЗНПК, необхідності переоцінки програм логічної освіти у вишах та подальшого розвитку логічного знання у зв’язку з визначеними загальними інтелектуальними компетентностями юриста. У результаті нашого дослідження було доведено, що електронні курси на базі платформи MOODLE позитивно впливають на оволодіння студентами логічним інструментарієм для розв’язання ТЗНПК і мають потенційну освітню можливість як ефективний засіб для формування професійної компетентності майбутніх магістрів права. Подальший розвиток освітянських інформаційних технологій автори пов’язують із поглибленням усвідомлення взаємодії логічних і юридичних форм, поширенням логічної освіти, незмінним упровадженням нових інформаційних технологій в освітній процес, постійним зростанням актуальності розумової праці в суспільстві.

The paper researches the use of audiovisual material for formation of aviation subject matter competence of aviation translation students. The research involved a pedagogical experiment aimed at the verification of the hypothesis that systemic use of content-oriented audiovisual material accompanied by a specifically developed complex of training activities enhances students’ knowledge of the professionally relevant subject matter and skills in adequate use of aviation terminology and technical language, which visibly improves students’ professional competence as future translators in the aviation industry. The conducted experiment yielded positive results and confirmed the research hypothesis. As a result of the experimental teaching, the students showed better skills in using aviation terminology, abbreviations and concepts, higher lexicographic awareness, improved their ability to adequately use electronic and printed reference materials when translating aviation texts and to perform translation/interpreting in conformity with grammar, semantic and stylistic norms of radiotelephony communication and aviation standards. The experiment gave convincing evidence that audiovisual material combined with specially designed activities facilitates the formation of the aviation subject matter competence of aviation translation students, which is the basis for their successful professional performance. The audiovisual material and the training activities proved to be effective teaching tools in the framework of a content-oriented structure of aviation translation students’ aviation subject matter competence which was developed by the authors. Though the experimental teaching was done in the course on English-Ukrainian and Ukrainian-English aviation translation, the research results may surely be of relevance for other language pairs as well.
Участь судового експерта у кримінальному провадженні в державах змагальної системи права на прикладі Великої Британії

Published: July 2021

Вплив змагального процесу на організацію судово-експертного забезпечення судочинства у державах загального права є актуальним для наукового вивчення.
Метою статті є аналіз організаційних і процесуальних особливостей залучення судового експерта у кримінальне провадження Великої Британії та дослідження впливу змагального процесу на організацію судово-експертного забезпечення судочинства у державах загального права.
Встановлено, що завдяки принципу змагальності, який домінує, зокрема, у Великій Британії, сторони отримують можливість на власний розсуд визначати, які докази подавати до суду, а також самостійно вибирати експерта. Експерт у змагальній системі мав би надавати висновок на основі власної незалежної оцінки і не має обов’язку “дбати” про позицію сторони, яка його залучила у провадження.
Розглянуто концепцію експерта як “найманої зброї” (“hired guns”) і теорію “експертного шопінгу” (“expert shopping”) як загрозу для здійснення об’єктивного та неупередженого правосуддя у державах, де домінує змагальний процес. Досліджено окремі шляхи вирішення проблеми упередженості експертів у змагальній системі.
З’ясовано історичні передумови виникнення “обізнаного свідка” у кримінальному процесі Великої Британії. Встановлено, зважаючи на особливості судового процесу та правової системи загалом, відмінності законодавчого підходу Великої Британії до статусу експерта від підходу у державах континентального права.
Звернено увагу на організаційні та процесуальні особливості залучення судового експерта у кримінальне провадження Великої Британії. З цією метою проаналізовано прецедентну практику, Кримінально-процесуальні правила Великої Британії, Положення про акредитацію судових експертів, Вказівки Королівської прокурорської служби, що стосуються експертних доказів, а також окремі моніто-рингові документи, присвячені проблемам судової експертизи у Великій Британії. Визначено статус експертних доказів для доведення чи спростування обвинувачення у кримінальному провадженні.
За результатами дослідження зроблено висновок, що функція експерта у Великій Британії включає необхідність збалансувати очікування клієнта із зобов’язанням підтримувати об’єктивність. Виявлено недоліки відсутності системи атестації та ліцензування судових експертів і відповідних реєстрів судових експертів, що ставить під сумнів належний рівень їхньої професійної підготовки. Залучення судового експерта у кримінальне провадження Великої Британії, у якій домінує змагальний процес, поступово запозичує деякі риси, характерні обвинувальному процесу.
Mediterranean contemporary winter and summer air mass climatology with respect to temperature and moisture flux
Authors: Şahin S
Published: July 2021

Large-scale moisture fluxes and backward air mass trajectories and frequencies were investigated to explain the mechanisms of synoptic-scale seasonal variability of air masses in the Mediterranean basin. For this aim, reanalysis data were used to calculate variations in moisture flux with respect to temperature and stability according to the 8 standard pressure levels between 1000 and 300 hPa. Investigating air mass characteristics changing with pressure levels provided new information in terms of air mass climatology for the Mediterranean basin. Results show that due to the influence of westerly flows, the Atlantic is the main source of moisture higher than 700 hPa. Turbulent transport of moisture from the Mediterranean Sea is the source of moisture close to the surface, which corresponds to levels lower than 700 hPa. According to the trajectory analysis, the continental Arctic (cA) air mass can reach the Mediterranean basin and provide very wet conditions over the Mediterranean basin during winter. In addition, during very dry conditions in summer, all air mass currents originate from surface pressure levels between 1000 and 850 hPa. These relatively warm and dominant air masses cause cloud-free conditions with very low precipitation over the Mediterranean basin. This study showed that air masses should be analyzed not only according to their source and path but also according to pressure levels. Therefore, more studies are needed investigating the contemporary air mass climatology of a specific region.
