Risk taking considered as one important dimension of entreprenurial orientation. This research aims to study gender differences on risk taking among entrepreneur. The overall objective of this research is to highlight the link between gender difference in risk taking when managing small business.  Independent Sample T-Test and Confirmatory Factor Analysis was used to explore the phenomenon about whether there is differences in perception among male and female entrepreneur. Descriptive statistic reveals that female entrepreneur scored higher than the male entrepreneur on four of six indicator of risk taking. Eventhough there is no statistical differences in risk taking between male and female entrepreneur is small and the percentage of variance explained is low, there are significant differences in how male and female entrepreneur reflect their risk taking perception found in this study. Overall, these recommendations should help researchers to design and use more relevant risk-taking measures.Conclusions drawn from this study might be useful to better understand the use of risk taking model in entrepreneurial context.
Neural Network Decoders for Large-Distance 2D Toric Codes
Authors: Ni Xiaotong
Published: August 2020

We still do not have perfect decoders for topological codes that can satisfy all needs of different experimental setups. Recently, a few neural network based decoders have been studied, with the motivation that they can adapt to a wide range of noise models, and can easily run on dedicated chips without a full-fledged computer. The later feature might lead to fast speed and the ability to operate at low temperatures. However, a question which has not been addressed in previous works is whether neural network decoders can handle 2D topological codes with large distances. In this work, we provide a positive answer for the toric code \cite{Kitaev2003Faulttolerantanyon}. The structure of our neural network decoder is inspired by the renormalization group decoder \cite{duclos2010fast, duclos2013fault}. With a fairly strict policy on training time, when the bit-flip error rate is lower than9%and syndrome extraction is perfect, the neural network decoder performs better when code distance increases. With a less strict policy, we find it is not hard for the neural decoder to achieve a performance close to the minimum-weight perfect matching algorithm. The numerical simulation is done up to code distanced=64. Last but not least, we describe and analyze a few failed approaches. They guide us to the final design of our neural decoder, but also serve as a caution when we gauge the versatility of stock deep neural networks. The source code of our neural decoder can be found at \cite{sourcecodegithub}.

Published: August 2020

En este artículo se presenta el caso del Instituto Nacional de Medicina Genómica (INMEGEN) de la Secretaría de Salud del Gobierno Federal Mexicano, en el cual se realiza Investigación y Desarrollo (I&D) en Medicina Genómica. La vinculación del instituto ha sido tradicionalmente académica y de investigación. En el marco de tiempos de cambios internos y externos muy intensos, y considerando el esquema de austeridad económica planteada por el actual Gobierno, se requiere implementar acciones para mejorar su vinculación con el fin de propiciar la generación de nuevos proyectos y de ingresos externos en un esquema de gestión moderno. Para encontrar la propuesta de acciones que pudieran responder a esta necesidad, se propuso el desarrollo de un plan estratégico basado en el establecimiento de redes de innovación tecnológica. La metodología de planeación estratégica utilizada consistió en las siguientes etapas: (a) un diagnóstico para determinar la situación de referencia, (b) planteamiento de las condiciones para realizar la planeación, (c) la elaboración de un plan normativo para llegar a la situación futura esperada y (d) el desarrollo de un plan táctico con acciones de corto, mediano y largo plazo. En conclusión, en el plan propuesto para incentivar, mejorar y sistematizar las acciones de gestión de proyectos y vinculación con la sociedad se encontró que se requiere de dos acciones fundamentales: (a) construir comunidades o redes de innovación con instituciones nacionales e internacionales públicas y privadas y (b) llevar a cabo un mayor acercamiento y contacto directo con el público usando unidades móviles y módulos itinerantes para llevar servicios de medicina genómica directamente a distintas zonas de la Ciudad de México y su área conurbada.

Authors: Giraldo-Plaza Jorge E. , Ovalle-Carranza Demetrio A.
Published: August 2020

El objetivo de este artículo es presentar una aproximación del modelado de la gestión curricular en instituciones universitarias a través de los fundamentos de los procesos de negocio con especial enfoque en la información sensible al contexto. La importancia del contexto se refleja en la necesidad de controlar mayor información del ambiente que permita incrementar la expresividad en la representación y razonamiento inteligente sobre el conocimiento. El contexto se modela teniendo en cuenta entidades propias del dominio de ejecución y situaciones contextuales asociadas a dicho entorno de ejecución. El razonamiento automático se realiza aplicando un algoritmo inteligente que emplea técnicas de agrupamiento, el cual tiene en cuenta información contextual del proceso y genera alertas contextuales que apoyen la toma de decisiones. Para el procesamiento automático se diseñó un sistema de simulación y registro de ejecuciones de procesos, representadas en conjuntos de datos para la bitácora de cada proceso. Dentro de los resultados obtenidos, se tiene una representación formal de la gestión curricular a través de situaciones, que enriquecen la información de cada uno de los procesos de negocio. Se puede concluir que la información relacionada con el currículo es susceptible al contexto y por tanto puede afectar la ejecución de los procesos asociados a la gestión curricular. De esta forma, se recomienda diseñar reglas de razonamiento automático que permitan tener en cuenta el contexto para la toma de decisiones en procesos de gestión curricular.
The Effect of Family–Work and Work–Family Conflict on Call Center Workers’ Emotional Exhaustion With Person–Job Fit as Antecedent
Authors: Dwi Lestari Elissa , Yuwono Miranti Kusuma
Published: August 2020

In accordance with the government’s regulations in Indonesia, all financial services institutions are obliged to implement a customer complaint handling mechanism, which has contributed to the rapid growth of the call center industry. As a benchmark for managing service quality, call center workers are required to always keep their emotions stable despite the continuous pressures and unpleasant responses from customers. For this reason, working at call centers is now considered a job with a high emotional burden. Few studies have specifically examined the level of emotional exhaustion among call center workers in Indonesia. Therefore, this work aims to investigate the effect of family–work and work–family conflict on such workers’ emotional exhaustion, with person–job fit as antecedent. For this purpose, we collected data from 154 questionnaires completed by call center workers at financial services institutions in Indonesia. We analyze the relationship among the variables under study using structural equation modeling (SEM). The results show that the level of compatibility between employees’ and their job reduces both family–work and work–family conflict. In terms of work–family conflict, call center workers will feel emotionally exhausted only when faced with a dilemma between work and family responsibilities. The call centers’ management should thus create a family-friendly work environment to ensure excellent care for employees.

Tafsir, Ta'wil, dan Hermeneutika Suatu Paradigma Baru dalam Pemahaman Al-Qur'an
Authors: Shihab Muhammad Quraish
Published: August 2020

Studies on interpretation, exegesis, and hermeneutics are very wide for the difference of the scope of definition presented. Interpretation and exegesis are used to understand the words, sentences and the God's messages. Many Muslim scholars considers both have the same meaning, whereas for hermeneutics means the explanation about the meaning of the God's messages. Therefore, if hermeneutics is under-stood as the above explanation, it is not wrong that actually, herme-neutics has long been known by the Muslim scholars before the emergence of Western hermeneutics. As to other method of the inter-pretation of the Qur'an, Islam does not ban hermeneutics to doubt the Qur'an as long as that process drives the doer to positively think about the Qur'an and not to make the doer in pessimistic doubtful, pessimistic doubtful accompanied by bad assumption toward the Qur'an. Although some Muslim scholars allow the use of hermeneu-tical study in understanding the Qur'an, however, there are some tight requirements in using it. One of them is if there is certain indication (qaranah) which makes it hard to understand the external meaning

The object of the study of the knowledge of the variety of the Quranic reading  is the  Qur'an itself. The focus is on the difference of the reading and its articulation. The method is based on the riwayat or narration which is originated from the Prophet (Rasulullah saw) and its use is to be one of the instruments to keep the originality of the Qurâ€™an. The validity of the reading the Qurâ€™an is to be judged based on the valid chainÂ  (sanad Â¡aÂ¥Ä«Â¥)Â  in accord with the Rasm UÂ£mÄnÄ« as well as with theÂ  Arabic grammar. Whereas the qualification of its originality is divided into six stages as follow: the first is mutawÄtir, the second is masyhÅ«r, the third is ÄhÄd, the fourth is syaz, the fifth is maudÅ«â€˜, and the six is mudraj. Of this six catagories, the readings which can be included in the catagory of mutawÄtir are Qiraat Sabâ€˜ah (the seven readings) and Qiraat â€˜AsyrahÂ  (the ten readings). To study this knowledge of reading the Qurâ€™an (ilmu qiraat), one is advised to know about special terms being used such asÂ  qiraatÂ  (readings), riwayat (narration), tarÄ«q (the way), wajh (aspect), mÄ«m jamaâ€˜, sukÅ«n mÄ«m jamaâ€˜ and many others.
Kehancuran Alam Semesta dalam Al-Qur'an Perspektif Kosmologi
Authors: Amalia Efa Ida
Published: August 2020

The purpose of this research is to know about the process and the steps of the destruction of the Universe (kiamat) in the Qur'an. This phenomenon will be explained through cosmological perspective. Al-Qur'an mentions the phenomenon of the end of the world (universe) or (kiamat) in many verses for more than 700 times. Therefore, human beings are supposed to be able to â€œreadâ€ the phenomenon of the universe.   According to the Qur'an, destruction is divided into two categories: the first is total destruction of the universe and the second is the day of resurrection. The first one is the final destruction of the universe known as the doomsday. At this stage, the expansion of the universe is ceased and leaves the contraction space caused by gravitation. As theÂ  result, all things are more closed to others and destruction cannot be avoided. The second destruction is the destruction of the earth which is caused by human beings attitude

Published: August 2020

This paper examines the influence of Persia in the history of Malay culture and literature. Persian influence appears in prayers, religious ceremonies and the tendency towards Sufi ideas. It is also found in Malay vocabulary, types of writing, traditional literary romances known as hikayat, poetry and historical texts. Further influence appears in Malay cultural values, canon law and religious treatises which are commonly also regarded as literary works. This influence is not coincidental but the result of historical factors which cannot be ignored. Persian religious scholars, intellectuals and cogniscenti played an important role in the spread of Islam and its intellectual traditions. This influence can be seen in works such as Taj al-Salitan, Hikayat Amir Hamzah, Hikayat Muhammad Ali HanafiyanÂ  and Hikayat Burung Pingai.

Published: August 2020

A study of Qurâ€™an manuscripts from Southeast AsiaÂ Â  has revealed a number of distinctive artistic schools.Â  The common denominator of each school is a strong sense of regional identity, with particular styles of manuscript illumination associated with Aceh, the states of Terengganu, Kelantan and Patani on the East Coast of the Malay peninsula, and the south Sulawesi diaspora communities. Large numbers of illuminated Qurâ€™an manuscripts are also known from Java, but here we find a wide variety of decorative styles, meaning it is not possible to talk of a single â€˜Javaneseâ€™ school of Qurâ€™anic illumination.Â  This article lists a few distinctive features associated with Javanese illuminated Qur'an manuscripts, as a contribution towards a better understanding of the art of the Qur'an in Java.

Keraguan Seputar Mushaf Al-Qur'an: Kajian Resepsi terhadap Manuskrip Birmingham
Authors: Faizin Nur
Published: August 2020

Temuan fragmen manuskrip mushaf Al-Qurâ€™an di Birmingham Juli 2015 menghentakkan banyak kalangan, terutama umat Islam dan peneliti Al-Qurâ€™an. Penelitian ini membahas resepsi terhadap manuskrip itu dengan meminjam teori resepsi sastra yang memungkinkan untuk membaca teks korup dengan pendekatan resepsi estetika, intertekstual, dan semiotik. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian kepustakaan. Data primer dikumpulkan dari sumber internet, buku, dan sejenisnya dengan metode dokumentasi. Sedangkan analisis serta penyajiannya dilakukan secara simultan dengan metode deskriptif-kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa temuan fragmen Birmingham mendapatkan resepsi yang bermacam-macam, bahkan bertolak belakang, yaitu resepsi yang memperkuat keyakinan terhadap mushaf dan resepsi kritis yang menebarkan keraguan terhadap mushaf Al-Qurâ€™an. Keraguan itu berkisar pada penulis (author) Al-Qurâ€™an bukan Allah melalui Jibril kepada Muhammad; keberadaan mushaf yang utuh pasca-Utsman; dan Muhammad dan pengikutnya telah memanfaatkan ajaran agama sesuai kepentingan politik dan agamanya.  Keraguan seperti ini berlawanan dengan ideologi yang telah lama diyakini kebenarannya dalam Islam, bahkan bertentangan dengan isi Al-Qurâ€™an sendiri.

Natural objects as an effective means of training students majoring in Chemistry and Biology
Authors: Topchii Mariia , Bosenko Anatoly , Belyaeva Lyudmila
Published: August 2020

The purpose of the study is to study the efficiency of students' assimilation of the methods of qualitative and quantitative chemical analysis using the methodical guidelines for the exploitation of highly mineralized natural waters (brines) developed by the professors of the Department of Chemistry (Francisk Skorina Gomel State University). Two groups consisting of 50 students each participated in the study which had been conducted for 3 years: a control group (CG) and an experimental group (EG). The CG students used the solutions elaborated under laboratory conditions, whereas the EG students used natural brines. To determine the features of the brines (solutions) under study these methods were adopted: potentiometric, titrimetric, colorimetric, turbometric, hypochlorite and other methods alongside the statistical analysis. The efficiency of learning was determined by calculating the level of training and the quality of knowledge based on the results of the students’ independent works and computer testing. The students who were trained with the use of the natural objects demonstrated the improved academic outcomes in accordance with corresponding indicators. The training level demonstrated by the CG students varied between 54.1–60.1%; whereas in the experimental group, this indicator ranged from 62.9% to 83.3%. The quality of knowledge in the experimental group was also higher than in the control group: 66.1–73.3% and 57.4–58.8%, respectively. The approbation results of the developed methodical guidelines for studying the basics of sampling, sample preparation as well as the ones of the qualitative and quantitative analyses on the example of natural objects (brines) indicate an increase in the efficiency of the training compared to the standard methods for using laboratory solutions and serve as the basis for their implementation into the process of training future specialists majoring in Chemistry and Biology.
Types and causes of postural disorder in the frontal plane in children with psychomotor retardation
Authors: Biesieda Volodymyr
Published: August 2020

Disorders of the musculoskeletal system, where posture defects contribute to the appearance of multiple organ dysfunctions, are the leading symptom demonstrated by the children with psychomotor retardation. Scientific studies state different data regarding postural disorders in children of early and preschool age, which is caused by lack of a unified classification of postural disorders in the frontal plane. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to develop a new comprehensive classification of postural disorders in the frontal plane in infants and preschool children with psychomotor retardation depending on their causes, the classification being adapted to the possibilities of the correction-oriented physical training, by means of the analysis and classification methods. During our research, we have revealed the following: 1. The problem of postural disorders demonstrated by the children of early and preschool age occupies a leading position, but at the same time, the issues related to the diagnosing of the children suffering from psychomotor retardation alongside the determination of the etiology of disorders have not been sufficiently developed. 2. The main types of postural disorders in the children’s frontal plane are presented in the form of scoliosis, asymmetric posture being its precursor. 3. The reasons for postural disorders in children are of a diverse nature and depend on many factors; we have not revealed a unified approach to the identification of the etiology of postural disorders in the frontal plane in scholars’ studies. 4. A new complex classification is presented; it which includes five main etiological blocks of postural disorders in the frontal plane of children of early and preschool age who suffer from psychomotor retardation: biomechanical (anatomical), neurogenic-muscular, myofascial, psychosomatic and compensatory. The prospects for further research may lie in the mainstream of the search for a correlation between the cause-effect relationships of the etiology and pathogenesis of postural disorders in the frontal plane demonstrated by the children under focus according to the five above-mentioned blocks.

As Ukraine aspired for European integration, it faced a demand to update its educational sphere to facilitate the development of children’s skills, creativity, scientific and research knowledge, to provide for their self-education, self-actualisation and self-perfection. A new Ukrainian school shall establish conditions for comprehensive personal development as the highest value of the society based on revealing and developing person's skills, gifts and talents. The purpose of the article is to summarise the results of scientific surveys on the issue of giftedness, to analyse its aspects and essence. The material was compiled by means of the method of theoretical analysis and systematisation of the scientific sources, which enabled us to form basic research terms and define the essence of giftedness in order to effectively conduct activities with gifted children. We have analysed the definitions of the phenomena “giftedness”, “talent”, “genius”, “abilities”, “potential” and “a gifted child” in the modern scientific literature. We have provided approaches to interpret the notion “giftedness” and define the phenomenon under focus. The concepts of giftedness examined by Ukrainian and foreign researchers have been considered. Based on the analysis of the definitions of the notion “giftedness”, we have distinguished its essential features. The summarising of the scientific research allowed us to detect the components of giftedness for its further diagnostics. They shall include intellectual and cognitive, motivation-related and person-centred as well as creative aspects. Having analysed and summarised the compiled material, we revealed the types of giftedness, categories of gifted children and their peculiarities. Revealing the essence of the phenomenon “giftedness”, its factors, structure, components, kinds and types alongside the main features of gifted children will allow improving the efficiency of specialists’ work with gifted children and developing the skills and talents of the latter in future.

Relevance. The current changes in the field of education require the systematic updating of educational and professional training programs intended for future managers, the developing of new competences and the using of innovative training technologies, which confirms the significance and necessity of the dominance of practice-oriented training in the training of modern education managers who must be competitive on the labour market . The purpose of the article is to identify the features of the practice-oriented training as a means of professionalisation and to justify the specifics of its implementation into the system of professional training aimed at future education managers. Research Methodology. These theoretical methods were used in the study: analysis, generalisation and systematisation of scientific literature in order to clarify the concepts “professionalisation”, “professionalism” as well as the features of the practice-oriented training; to identify the specificity of the training aimed at the future education managers at an institution of higher education. In addition, questionnaires were used as a method of empirical research to identify the difficulties experienced by the future education managers in the period of their professional training within Master programmes. It has been proved that the professionalisation of the future education managers is a process of professionalism development. The authors have generalised the twelve-year experience of the Department of Educational Management and Public Administration of Ushynsky University in training future education managers to use a practice-oriented approach; to consider the challenges of today and the modern requirements set as a result of the reforms and innovations; to improve the content and to choose training tactics, taking into consideration corresponding teaching / learning forms, methods and tools which provide for the ability to autonomously make decisions under conditions of uncertainty, identifying risks, the impact of internal and external factors on the development of a higher education institution in the period of changes. The necessity to use the information-factual base of reasonably expected situations in the process of the future education managers’ independent educational activity has been substantiated since it promotes the development of higher education seekers’ individual abilities, the creation of conditions for their active, fruitful educational and cognitive activities and provides for creative use of organisational forms and methods.

The article is devoted to the study of the essence of the phenomenon “performing will” as an important professional quality of future specialists in the field of art education. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the essence, content and component structure of the performing will generated by future Music teachers, in the context of choirmaster (choral) training in particular. These methods are used in the article: analysis, synthesis and generalization (in order to substantiate the key provisions of the study); the method of shifting from the abstract entities to the concrete ones (in order to study the essence of the complex concept "performing will of a Music teacher in the context of choral training"); the methods of modelling and systematisation (in order to study the structural components of the phenomenon under study). Based on the study, it was determined that the choirmaster training aimed at the future Music teachers involves mastering the competence in specific activities with pupils’ non-amateur and amateur choirs, as well as mastering the forms and methods of organising pupils’ group choral performance. The performing will of the future Music teacher in the context of choirmaster training is considered as individual basic personal and professional properties which provide mental and emotional influence of the conductor on the members of the choir to unite them on the basis of emotional and spiritual resonance. The will of the conductor-choirmaster acts as a mechanism of energy impact on each member of the team in order to achieve the necessary, highly artistic and convincing level of implementation of the performance conception as an intonation-auditory and emotional image of the musical work envisioned by the conductor. Based on the definition of the content-oriented and attributive characteristics of the performing executive will, the component structure of the studied phenomenon is substantiated, it consists of four interconnected components: motivational-incentive, intonation- and image-centred, manual-expressive and reflexive-corrective
Master’s competence-based portfolio content as a means of academic writing assessment
Authors: Babenko Tamara
Published: August 2020

Higher education in Ukraine is facing new challenges brought about by the reform processes that affect its content and structure. The reduction of contact hours has increased both the volume of students’ independent work and their responsibility for academic success. Under these conditions, the portfolio becomes one of the most efficient means of teaching and assessing students’ academic performance as it consists of a collection of syllabus-based writing tasks demonstrating the learner’s gradual achievements during the course. Portfolios are profitable both for teachers and learners. Thanks to the portfolio, all the students are equally involved into the learning process; they receive more individual attention on the part of the teacher, and to the end of the course, get patterns of several academic papers, such as an essay, abstract, annotative bibliography, and presentation. The portfolios enable the teacher to follow the students’ achievements and the process of forming academic writing competences, and if it is necessary, to reinforce their development. Moreover, portfolios provide a perfect tool for valid, multifaceted, and sustainable students’ assessment. The system of syllabus-based learning tasks aligned to six categories of Bloom’s taxonomy forms the content of the competence-based portfolio. The proposed arrangement of academic writing assignments accounts for successful solving of the course objectives. The introduction of portfolios into the learning process is rather advantageous for other academic courses because most generic and subject-specific competences, formed within the Academic Writing course, are transferable and can be applied to other disciplines. The learners can successfully use the absorbed knowledge of scientific writing for creating academic papers in other courses.
Innovative teaching methods applicable at the classes of percussion instruments
Authors: Ralo Ganna
Published: August 2020

About 100 years have passed since the first classes of percussion instruments appeared. In the early days, when professional training intended for percussion performers dated to, teachers faced a large number of problems, in particular, lack of a full set of percussion instruments in the classroom, the availability of instructive, educational, pedagogical and concert repertoire alongside scientific and methodological literature. As a result, the work of the first educators was based, first of all, on their personal pedagogical experience and many years of performing practice. In this regard, the appearance of the first teaching aids was a milestone in the development of professional training in playing percussion instruments. For a century-long period, not so much educational and methodological literature has appeared, which was conditioned by a number of objective and subjective factors. At the same time, each methodological manual has taken its rightful place in the development of teaching methods for playing the percussion instruments. However, time is relentlessly moving forward and, unfortunately, today, they have become less in demand, as they do not always meet the modern requirements and approaches to teaching how to play the percussion instruments. Today, Ukrainian scientists and teachers have free access to a large amount of information. Therefore, they have an opportunity to familiarise themselves with interesting developments of our foreign colleagues. However, in most cases, they cannot be used in domestic pedagogical practice, as they are not adapted to the current realities of the educational system of Ukraine due to various socio-economic and cultural factors. Thus, the issues related to the need to search for the most effective forms, methods, and approaches to teaching how to play the percussion instruments is of particular importance and relevance. The article is devoted to the methods based on the playing form of instructions which are used in schools of aesthetic education and, in particular, at the classes of percussion instruments. The purpose of the work is to present new promising areas in teaching percussion playing, based on the author’s pedagogical practice. These methods were used in the study: analysis, observation, deduction and induction. The following issues are considered in the article: the influence of learners’ age characteristics on the choice of teaching methods, the essence of the group form of training and its importance for activating the pedagogical process, traditional and non-traditional approaches to teaching / learning, as well as the analysis of the methods that are widely used in the author’s teaching practice at the classes of the percussion instruments playing. As a result of the study, some new ideas were proposed related to the training at the initial stage and the ways of their implementation by introducing the methods of collective listening, imitation, “playing with the ball”, “sweet tooth”, etc. into the pedagogical practice.
Interactive technologies of distance learning under conditions of a pandemic
Authors: Ivanenko Stanislav , Tyshchenko Valeriia
Published: August 2020

Methodological approaches of studying the distance learning process of students in higher education institutions are evolving alongside changes that occur in the educational system and in the global space. Therefore, the systematisation of theoretical, methodological and practical factors on which the modern methodology of distance learning is based makes it possible to form new opportunities for the education system in the direction of its modernisation. One of the components is communicative competence, that is, the ability to perceive and (re)produce the information in a foreign language in accordance with the conditions of speech communication. The purpose of the study is to characterise modern interactive methods of distance learning for the organisation and management of students’ educational activities. To achieve this goal, theoretical research methods were used: analysis, systematisation, substantiation of the conceptual apparatus of the study; the formulation of its conceptual provisions and conclusions; analysis of pedagogical documentation, content analysis of curricula and methodological support of the educational process to determine the possibilities of using educational IT-technologies in distance learning. The peculiarities of the innovative technologies usage while studying foreign languages and the theoretical and methodological foundations of Physical Culture and Sports are characterised. Distance learning of different disciplines should be included in the curricula. Several innovative forms of language “warm-up” are proposed. Modern educational WEB-technologies are studied, which allows us to expand the methodological components of distance learning in higher education institutions. The most effective distance learning means in higher education institutions has been established. The application of the Case method, the interactive «science brain storm» technology, the online versions of AWWAPP and RealtimeBoard, the use of the PRES formula and the Flipped classroom methodology has been analysed. For blended learning, it is proposed to use a traditional textbook in combination with interactive online tasks – Blended Learning – using the online tool MyEnglishLab. An important aspect is that during practical classes, the Zoom software is used for fine differentiation and accurate identification of textual material. The applied innovative teaching methods, combining new and effective methods of the educational process (knowledge generation, transfer and accumulation), will contribute to the intensification and modernization of education, as a result of which the synthesis of students’ certain competencies is achieved.

It has been proven that Constructor Electronic books 1.1.3 and SunRav provide the creation of online tutorials that are run using an exe-file. Webnode Website Designer enables the creation of open-source electronic educational resources that are freely available on the World Wide Web (teacher's personal sites, discipline study site, e-learning teaching / learning support of disciplines, etc.). These electronic educational resources effectively and fully function in any modern browser: Google Chrome, Opera, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer, etc., and also provide the opportunity to work online with students. Using Google Classroom is appropriate when you need to organise full-time online (virtual) online distance learning. For the resource-based learning of the students majoring in Economics, the authors have developed and presented an electronic manual "Higher Mathematics for Economists" in the Designer of Electronic Textbooks (N. Kononets); an educational and methodological complex of the discipline "Economic Informatics" in the environment of SunRav IS (N. Kononets); a site of study studio "Digital Technologies in the Economist's Work", created at Webnode (V. Baliuk); a Virtual Classroom "Educational practice in information systems and technologies in Economics" in Google Classroom (N. Kononets and V. Baliuk).

Pada akhir tahun 2019, terjadi suatu pandemi yang berasal dari Cina tepatnya di kota Wuhan. Pandemi tersebut dikenal dengan covid-19. Covid-19 disebabkan oleh SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2). Jika dibandingkan dengan SARS pada 2003 dan MERS pada 2012, penyebaran pandemi ini jauh lebih cepat. Hingga saat ini sudah lebih dari 6,2 juta kasus positif yang dilaporkan. Sampai saat ini belum ditemukannya vaksin sebagai agen penekan penyebarannya. Pembuatan vaksin baru pada umumnya membutuhkan waktu yang lama yaitu dapat mencapai 10 tahun. Review ini bertujuan untuk membahas berbagai teknologi pembuatan vaksin dan menunjukkan teknologi yang dapat mempercepat produksi vaksin covid-19. Metode yang digunakan pada review ini adalah studi literatur secara online dengan mengakses beberapa situs jurnal internasional. Semua jenis teknologi pembuatan vaksin memiliki kelebihan dan kekurangan. Ditinjau dari kecepatannya, dapat diambil kesimpulan bahwa vaksin berbasis RNA memiliki kecepatan dalam memperoleh urutan data patogen dan tidak membutuhkan kultur sehingga dapat diproduksi dengan cepat.
La prensa de costumbres y la literatura de civilidad en la Buenos Aires tardocolonial
Authors: Maggio Ramírez Matías
Published: August 2020

Analizar cómo la prensa de costumbres tardocolonial abordó la literatura de civilidad, para cuestionar la educación familiar. Se puso de manifiesto la necesidad de habitar, tanto el campo como la ciudad, de acuerdo a los tiempos modernos. Se recopiló, contrastó y analizó una selección de artículos que abordaban la crítica de costumbres en los periódicos de los primeros años del siglo XIX. Se evidenció el cuestionamiento por parte de la élite criolla de las tradiciones, la educación particular y la transmisión generacional del saber. Se buscaba lograr un cambio en las costumbres, mediante la cultura impresa, para que Buenos Aires no sea “el fiero lunar de las provincias cultas”, como escribió Francisco Cabello y Mesa, del imperio borbónico.
El discurso político en los cuerpos complejos de la monarquía castellana (s. XIII-XVIII)
Authors: Pereyra Osvaldo Víctor , Sanmartín Barros Israel
Published: August 2020

El objetivo de la presente selección de artículos es reflexionar acerca de la complejidad que exhiben los discursos políticos en la sociedad europea de la Edad Media y la modernidad. Inscriptos al interior de una visión corporativa, profundamente jerarquizada y orgánica, estos sistemas estructurados de definición e identificación que otorgan sentido organizan y legitiman el conjunto agregativo del entramado de actores que definen los distintos cuerpos y corporaciones. Su análisis nos permite componer los distintos marcadores sociales que los constituyen y le otorgan inteligibilidad.
