¿España Circular 2030? Comentario al borrador de la estrategia española de economía circular
Authors: Puentes cociña Beltrán
Published: January 2019

European Union has given a strong impetus to circular economy strategy, so it is up to Member States to adopt their own national plans. In the absence of a definitive text, the publication of the draft of “España Circular 2030: Estrategia Española de Economía Circular” serves as a pretext to study the direction of the transition to the circular economy in Spain. The proposed reforms and some limitations found in the draft presented by the previous Government of the State are analysed in this work. It must be evaluated if a document of these conditions serves to respond to the challenges posed by the community institutions.
La litigació climàtica a Espanya: una prospectiva
Authors: Jaria i Manzano Jordi
Published: January 2019

La dependència de les institucions tradicionals de producció normativa d’estructures de poder transnacionals i opaques, en el context de la fase global i financera de l’evolució sistema-món capitalista. desplaça progressivament l’èmfasi, en relació amb l’adaptació i mitigació del canvi climàtic, des de la regulació a l’adjudicació, del poder legislatiu al poder judicial. És per això que, en els últims anys, s’ha desenvolupat progressivament la litigació climàtica. Casos emblemàtics, com Urgenda, als Països Baixos, i Juliana, als Estats Units, han posat de manifest que l’espai forense esdevé un àmbit útil i innovador per impulsar la reacció social davant de la transformació antròpica del Sistema Terra, permetent la participació activa d’actors no institucionals i l’apoderament de la ciutadania. D’aquesta manera, es poden desplegar estratègies de control del poder i exigència de responsabilitats, amb la finalitat de permetre la transformació progressiva de la presa de decisions per ajustar-la a les exigències de la transició cap a l’Antropocè. En aquest marc, es proposa una anàlisi prospectiva de la litigació climàtica a Espanya, a partir dels fonaments constitucionals.

Respiratory picornavirus genotyping conventional nested RT-PCR ("Wisdom VP42 assay") v1
Authors: M Mackay Ian , A Northill Judy
Published: January 2019

This is my preferred, previously published [Ref 1], rhinovirus (RV) and enterovirus (EV) genotypingassay when seeking to identify the genotype of a respiratory picornavirus detected in a clinical sample extract. It is employed after use of a screeningreal-timeRT-PCR has identified a respiratory picornavirus. I have not confirmedthat it can detectevery single RV genotype but I do know that it detectsmanyfrom each of the threeRV species (Human rhinovirus A,Human rhinovirus BandHuman rhinovirus C) as well as at least someHuman enterovirus(EV) genotypes. The assay picks up EVs due to the shared genetic similarities inthe5'UTR target region. EVs can be discriminatedusing subgenomic sequencing (see VP42 typing assay protocol), or simply described as 'respiratory EVs' since there is no specific-specific vaccine ortreatment available anyway. This is arobust primary subgenomic sequencing assay. It is more sensitive than any VP1 protocols because it targets more conserved primer target sites. It produces a more reliabletyping result than does the 5'UTR region alone.

Published: January 2019

High hyperopia is a common and severe form of refractive error. Genetic factors play important roles in the development of high hyperopia but the exact gene responsible for this condition is mostly unknown. We identified a large Chinese family with autosomal dominant high hyperopia. A genome-wide linkage scan mapped the high hyperopia to chromosome 11p12-q13.3, with maximum log of the odds (LOD) scores of 4.68 at theta=0 for D11S987. Parallel whole-exome sequencing detected a novel c.3377delG (p.Gly1126Valfs*31) heterozygous mutation in the MYRF gene within the linkage interval. Whole-exome sequencing in other 121 probands with high hyperopia identified additional novel mutations in MYRF within two other families: a de novo c.3274_3275delAG (p.Leu1093Profs*22) heterozygous mutation and a c.3194+2T>C heterozygous mutation. All three mutations are located in the C-terminal region of MYRF and are predicted to result in truncation of that portion. Two patients from two of the three families developed angle-closure glaucoma. These three mutations were present in neither the ExAC database nor our in-house whole-exome sequencing data from 3280 individuals. No other truncation mutations in MYRF were detected in the 3280 individuals. Knockdown of myrf resulted in small eye size in zebrafish. These evidence all support that truncation mutations in the C-terminal region of MYRF are responsible for autosomal dominant high hyperopia in these families. Our results may provide useful clues for further understanding the functional role of the C-terminal region of this critical myelin regulatory factor, as well as the molecular pathogenesis of high hyperopia and its associated angle-closure glaucoma.

Published: January 2019

the present study follows a qualitative research approach that analyzes the perceptions of people linked to the different fields in the tourism sector of the province of El Oro in Ecuador. Currently, this province has professionals who lack a good level of English proficiency to provide foreigners with the best service. The researchers applied semi-structured interviews, capitalization of testimony, and focus group discussions to 15 participants associated with the different activities in the tourism area. The present study aimed to explore the needs and uses of the English language in the tourism and Hostelry sectors of "El Oro," the implications of having staff with good English language knowledge, and the impact of knowing English in the tourism sector.  The results revealed that staff required having an appropriate level of English proficiency to make tourists feel comfortable during their stay.  For this reason, knowing English has a positive impact in all the areas of the tourism sector.  The researchers suggest further studies regarding the effectiveness of different strategies and techniques to develop English for Tourism Purposes (ETP) at the university level and examine the impact of knowing English in the different fields of the tourism sector.
Use of Foreign Films in Cultivating Intercultural Communicative Competence in ELT—A Case Study
Authors: Yue Jianying
Published: January 2019

Foreign films have long been used in English Language Teaching (ELT) and been proved effective in improving learners’ linguistic competence. Cultivating Intercultural Communicative Competence (ICC) has gradually become a vital goal in English Language Teaching (ELT). However, whether foreign films can be used to improve learners’ ICC is less researched. Taking Byram’s ICC model, this paper tends to show foreign films can also be effective in improving learners’ ICC. This article reports an empirical study designed to explore the processes students engage in when viewing Disney film Mulan in a Chinese college classroom. Students’ study blogs, quizzes, and interviews are major research data and the analysis of the data illustrated foreign films’ role in cultivating learners’ ICC and explored the mental process of students’ interpretation of foreign films.
Linguistic and Pragmatic Failure of Arab Learners in Direct Polite Requests and Invitations: A Cross-cultural Study
Authors: Ghazzoul Nahed
Published: January 2019

In a cross-cultural context, the speakers' cultural disposition, linguistic codes, and social identity may influence their pragmatic behaviour; thus, lead to communication breakdowns. This paper studies the cross-cultural pragmatic failure in polite requests among Arab participants from different cultural backgrounds, and reattempts to test[ validate] the universality of Speech Act Theory, and Theory of Politeness. To that end, 96 situations have been collected from 16 Arab participants divided into two groups to examine the polite strategies they use in request and invitation situations. The results of the qualitative data analysis have shown that almost all participants favour conventionally direct strategies in requests and invitations to express politeness and hospitality. As for the Arab students who are UK citizens, the results indicated that they have a tendency to use more indirect strategies in different situations. However, this indirectness was perceived as lack of hospitality in invitations, and lack of pragmatic clarity in requests by the first group. The results of the data analysis show that there is no one formula of how politeness can be perceived by different cultures, and that the differences stem out from different socio-cultural norms. The findings also provide worthwhile insights into theoretical issues concerning Arabic communicative acts, as well as the relation between the universal pragmatic features, and culture-specific theoretical differences.
Translation Analysis of Taxis in “The Old Man and the Sea” Novel (Systemic Functional Linguistics Approach)
Authors: Setyaji Arso , Tarjana Sri Samiati , Nababan M. R. , Wiratno Tri
Published: January 2019

The Old Man and the Sea is a literature work by Ernest Hemingway. It has been translated into many languages even in Indonesian by Deera Army. Hemingway used more clause complex in producing his works. It causes problems in translation such as: translators should give more attention to the translation techniques used, readability decrease, and etc. On the other hand, Deera Army solved those problems by splitting the clause complex into shorter one. It is needed to conduct a study in how to make translation of complex clause. This study can be clearly conducted by using Systemic Functional Grammar (SFG) approach. In addition, this study is aimed at: (1) describing how can be interdependency and logical semantics of complex clause in source language realized into interdependency and logical semantics of complex clause in target language of The Old Man and the Sea Novel (2) describing what translation techniques on taxis markers are used in translating from source language to target language (3) describing translation quality of clause complex translation in target language. The result of the analysis showed that there are 400 sentences which have been broken into 701 clauses. Based on the analysis, there are paratactic and hypotactic form. Paratactic took 65.30% and hypotactic, 34.50%. All of them affect translation quality. Based on the analysis, the average of accuration takes up 2.89, naturalness with 2.96 and readibility with 2.97. The writer suggests that the next researcher can conduct the same research in the deeper way.

Published: January 2019

Introduction: The aim of this study was to assess the level of burnout syndrome among primary healthcare professionals in Canton Sarajevo and whether there is a link between the levels of burnout syndrome and sociodemographic parameters.

Methods: We included a total of 300 primary healthcare professionals. The burnout syndrome level was measured by Maslach Burnout Inventory, consisting of 22 particles (3 subscales) measuring the level of emotional exhaustion (EE), depersonalization (DP), and personal accomplishment (PA). We analyzed the correlation and difference between the level of burnout and sociodemographic parameters.

Results: The study revealed that in Canton Sarajevo 25.3% of healthcare professionals experience a high level of EE, 17.7% experience DP, and 19.0% experience a low level of PA. The subjects under 40 years experienced a higher level of EE than older subjects (p=0.000). There were significant differences in PA subscale between men and women (p=0.033), women having lower level of PA than males. Respondents who worked in shifts and respondents with indefinite period employment experience significantly a high level of EE. Subjects who drink alcohol had a higher level of DP.

Conclusion: Healthcare professionals are at increased risk of burnout. Factors which increase the burnout syndrome risk in health professionals in Sarajevo Canton were: age under 40 years old, female, working in shifts and drinking alcohol.

Authors: Tron-Radomska A.
Published: January 2019

The activity of the Ukrainian Central Committee in the General Government in the field of organization of camps for the fostering of youth is analyzed. The classification of varieties of camps and their structure, living conditions and sanitary requirements are presented. All the main educational directions of work in youth centers are considered. It is underlined that special attention of the camp program was paid to the sport and, in particular, traveling with hiking in the mountains and mapping. Competitions for the "Award for Physical Skillfulness" and sport tournaments regularly were held. The means of national-social education, based on Ukrainian studies, were discussions, lectures, firesides. Thanks to professional training, each participant got initial information from some areas of practical knowledge (agricultural education, building, care of patients, carpentry, chauffeur). Such work inspired confidence and respect from parents and western Ukrainian youth. It is mentioned about the use of typical army attributes and forms of organization for camps: marching, lifting the flag, reporting and discipline. Opinion that it was a continuation of the plast camps traditions is substantiated. The chain of youth camps of the Ukrainian Central Committee, which covered all Ukrainian ethnographic territory of the General Government, is illustrated. The focus is on the organization's distinctive features compared to the Polish children's camps of this period.

THE 2017 WOMEN'S MARCH: A NATIONAL STUDY OF SOLIDARITY EVENTS*
Authors: Beyerlein Kraig , Ryan Peter , Abu-Hazeem Aliyah , Pauley Amity
Published: January 2019

On January 21, 2017, over four hundred cities across the United States organized sister marches in solidarity with the Women's March on Washington. In this paper, we first compare the size of these marches to that of several significant protest-event sources to show how extraordinary turnout was that day. Then, analyzing a nationally representative sample of sister marches, we present univariate statistics for both event-level characteristics (such as demographics of participants or types of speakers) and mobilization processes (such as composition of organizing teams or recruitment efforts). We situate the descriptive findings in the broader literature on protest events and the women's movement to identify how they converge or diverge from established patterns. In addition, our study shows that many event-level characteristics of the sister marches were distinct relative to a recent national study of protests. Also discussed are the ways in which our results contribute to understanding the sister marches' success in mobilizing millions of people to take to the streets.
A Pobreza e o Currículo: Permanências e Ausências nos Documentos Oficiais de Geografia
Authors: Saab Thiago Bueno
Published: January 2019

O presente artigo visa realizar uma análise sobre os documentos oficiais (PCN; DCN; e o Caderno de Expectativas) de Geografia visando compreensão de como estes abordam a produção histórica da pobreza e se as vivências dos coletivos pauperizados estão inseridas nos referidos documentos. Assim, evidencia-se o intuito de responder o seguinte questionamento: como o currículo formal da disciplina de Geografia do Ensino Fundamental II abrange as vivências da pobreza e de que forma possibilita ou não a compreensão da produção histórica dessa. A metodologia que alicerçou esta pesquisa se caracteriza como qualitativa e tem como suporte teórico bibliografias, cujo vínculo principal se refira à temática de análise. Não obstante, lançou-se mão de uma análise documental dos currículos da disciplina de Geografia do Ensino Fundamental II (PCN - 1998, e DCN – 2013, e os Cadernos de Expectativas de Aprendizagem do Paraná - 2012). Como resultado, percebeu-se que não há nos documentos oficiais analisados qualquer debate sobre as raízes da pobreza, bem como não há a inserção das vivências materiais e imateriais dos coletivos pauperizados. Também faz parte dos resultados, um quadro síntese que possui as principais dimensões analisadas nesta investigação, o qual ratifica a inexistência da inserção da vivência dos grupos supracitados.Palavras-chave: Pobreza. Currículo.

Fomento de estilos de vida activos en la escuela: práctica de actividad física, edad y género
Authors: Cantero Castrillo Pedro , Mayor Villalaín Alba , Toja Reboredo Belén , González Valeiro Miguel
Published: January 2019

La alta inactividad física que presentan los jóvenes escolares hace necesaria la realización de estudios que busquen conocer los motivos de esta situación y busquen propuestas para su mejora. El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar las características que definen a escolares de secundaria de centros que disponen de un programa de fomento de actividad física (AF) (Proyecto Deportivo de Centro) de la Comunidad Autónoma de Galicia en función del índice de AF, el género y la edad. La muestra está compuesta por 1697 sujetos (824 niños y 873 niñas) y 2335 padres/madres. Como instrumento de recogida de datos se utilizó el “Cuestionario Internacional sobre el Estilo de Vida de los Alumnos”. Los resultados sugieren que un 66,9% de los alumnos tiene un índice de actividad poco activo o muy poco activo (56% niños y 77,3% niñas) y un índice de actividad activo o muy activo de un 33,1% (44% niños y 22,7% niñas). Este estudio presenta evidencias de que existen diferencias de género y de edad a la hora de cuantificar la cantidad de horas de práctica de actividad físico-deportiva, al igual que se observa una disociación entre la percepción de práctica y lo realizado realmente. También se ve una relación significativa entre la práctica de AF y el género, no encontrándose lo mismo al analizar el curso académico. A modo conclusión, se observa una elevada inactividad física, sobretodo en el género femenino, junto con un desconocimiento de esta situación, tanto por parte del alumnado como de sus progenitores.

Authors: Anh Truong Thi Tu , Xuan Tran Dang , Huong Can Thu , Dat Tran Dang
Published: January 2019

Mutation is an impressive method to induce potent characteristics in rice breeding. Evaluation on the phenotypic perfomance in mutant populations is important to examine the effectiveness of mutation. In this study, two rice populations of MNU ((N-methyl-N-Nitrosourea) -induced mutants were used to evaluate their phenotypes. The results showed that all of varieties and mutants expressed their ability to adapt with new environment condition via phenotypic expression. Grain yield of them ranged from 6.18 to 10.70 tons/ha. In general population S/TB performed their best characters. The distribution of related traits to grain yield and amylose content were also different from each population. It was observed that mutants expressed better characters than their parents. This study provided general information on phenotype of rice mutants and varieties in new environmental condition and revealed better adaptive characteristics of rice mutants. Findings of this study confirmed the the efficacy of MNU in rice breeding.
Effectiveness of Phosphorous Fertilizers in Wheat Crop Production in Pakistan
Authors: Jamal Aftab , Fawad Muhammad
Published: January 2019

Phosphorus is that element of periodic table, which is extensively found in nature and along with Nitrogen (N) and potassium represents the overall composition of plants and animal life. Phosphorus performed different metabolic activities in plants and is one of the key elements for the maturation of plants and boosting up the larger quantities. As it has a vital role in the metabolism and energy production reaction and can survive the unfavorable environmental effects so cause increase in yield. A research review was carried out on the effectiveness of P fertilizers on wheat crop in Pakistan. Almost all of the researchers in all areas indicated that P fertilizers significantly improved the growth as well as yield parameters of wheat crop. But the optimum rate of P fertilizer at which highest yield recorded was different for each area, soil and environmental condition. Although these findings on P fertilization representing many capable results regarding to yield and yield components of wheat but still further research is strongly recommended to evaluate the dynamics of P in soil as well as the interaction effect of P with other micro and macro nutrients.
What Doesn’t Kill You
Authors: Thomas Jacky T. , Beecher Blake
Published: January 2019

The purpose of this exploratory study was to examine the relationship between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and resilience in a sample (n=139) of Masters of Social Work (MSW) students. Perceived stress, religious faith, experiential avoidance, and mindfulness were also examined as correlates of resilience. Resilience scores for the MSW students were comparable to general population and college student norms, but ACEs and perceived stress scores were higher. Despite a broad literature supporting associations of high ACE scores with varied measures of physical and psychological problems, this study paradoxically showed a positive relationship between higher ACE scores and resilience. Regression analysis indicated a model including age, ACE scores, experiential avoidance, religious faith, and perceived stress explained 39.2% of the variance in resilience scores. Prior adverse childhood experiences and stronger religious faith are associated with increased resilience, while experiential avoidance and perceived stress are associated with lower resilience. This study provides further evidence that many students come to social work education with substantial trauma histories and experience considerable stress during their studies. Results suggest that social work educators should acknowledge risks associated with avoidant coping, and provide learning experiences aimed at developing students’ capacities for increased awareness and acceptance of challenging experiences—their own and others.
Perinatal Depression Knowledge, Attitudes, and Beliefs Among Graduate Social Work Students
Authors: Goyal Deepika , Han Meekyung
Published: January 2019

The purpose of this study was to identify the proportion of Master of Social Work (MSW) students who received perinatal depression (PD) training as part of their coursework. Additionally, we sought to identify differences in PD knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and openness to further education between students who had received PD training compared to students without PD training. Using a cross-sectional design and convenience sampling, 177 largely female (91.0%), Hispanic (46%), and Caucasian (28.2%) MSW students from five public California universities electronically provided demographic data and completed the Depression in Women's Health Settings scale. Most MSW students reported health/mental health (38%) or children/youth/and families (47.5%) as their field of practice. Twenty-nine MSW students (16.4%) reported receiving PD training, 61% child abuse/neglect training, and 50% domestic violence training. Students with PD training were significantly more knowledgeable and reported having the skills to assess, screen, identify, and care for women with PD symptoms versus students without PD training. Given the well-documented association of PD with child abuse/neglect and domestic violence, early PD screening, identification, and referral information must be incorporated into MSW curricula and continuing education in order to promote maternal-infant well-being outcomes.
Student, Faculty, and Field Instructor Approaches to SBIRT Implementation
Authors: Vinjamuri Mohan , Ogden Lydia P. , Kahn Jessica M.
Published: January 2019

Informed by an empirically-based implementation model, this study examined how social work faculty, student, and fieldwork instructor approaches to using the evidence-based SBIRT protocol affected implementation and model fidelity. Data were obtained from two rounds of focus groups with three groups of stakeholders (faculty, students, and fieldwork instructors) about their experiences teaching, learning, using, and supervising SBIRT and were analyzed using a hybrid inductive and deductive process. Analyses yielded three main categories of approaches: those that impeded implementation and model fidelity; those that supported implementation but were not congruent with model fidelity; and those that supported both implementation and model fidelity. Lack of consciousness about model fidelity was an issue across groups. Efforts to find a fit between the protocol, settings, and professional approaches to social work often led to implementation but questionable model fidelity. Repeated exposure to new material and opportunities to engage with it, having specific tools, and supporting learners’ efforts to uphold social work values can promote faithful implementation.

Dengue Serotype Differences in Urban and Semi-rural Communities in Ecuador
Authors: Márquez Sully , Carrera Julio , Espín Emilia , Cifuentes Sara , Trueba Gabriel , Coloma Josefina , Einsenberg Joseph N.
Published: January 2019

Dengue is a major vector-borne infection causing large outbreaks in urban communities in tropical regions. During the period 2010- 2014; 434 serum samples from febrile patients were collected from a semi-rural community hospital located in the norwestern region of Ecuador. Dengue virus (DENV) was investigated by reverse transcriptase PCR; a total of 48 samples were positive for dengue. During our study we detected DENV-2 and DENV-3 from 2010 to 2013 and the four DENV serotypes during the period 2013-2014. Surprisingly, our results contrasted with surveys carried out in urban centers throughout the Ecuadorian Coast in which DENV-1, DENV-2 and DENV-4 were prevalent during years 2010-2013 and only 2 serotypes (DENV-1 and DENV-2) in 2014.These results suggest that dengue viruses in semi-rural communities didn"™t originate in the Ecuadorian cities.
The Time has come: Gestational Carrier and the Use of Pre-implantation Genetic Testing (PGT)
Authors: Nulsen John , Grow Daniel Richmond , Makhijani Reeva
Published: January 2019

Purpose of review: Gestational carrier reproduction is restricted in much of the industrialized world due to complex ethical issues between the intended parents (IP) and the gestational carrier (GC), as well as safety concerns for the GC. Over 3% of all embryo transfers done in the United States involve GCs. Recent review has revealed high perinatal risks associated with assisted reproductive technologies (ART) for GCs. Compared to spontaneous conception, which the GC is familiar with, GCs using IVF have increased risk for twins and triplets of 20 and 46 fold, respectively. The resultant perinatal mortality rates are increased 4-6 fold. Costs in the first year of life for multiples are 5 to 20 times greater than for singletons. As GC cycles continue to increase, we must develop strategies to reduce perinatal risks for GCs and their offspring.Recent findings: Recent advances in IVF with pre-implantation genetic testing allow detection of euploidy for all 24 chromosomes. Elective single embryo transfer has reduced the risk of multiple pregnancy, preterm delivery and perinatal morbidity for women across the age spectrum.Summary: Elective euploid single embryo transfer, through the use of PGT, allows for very high pregnancy rates while reducing perinatal morbidity to natural levels. Both multiple gestation and miscarriage are dramatically reduced. Implementation of this technology in GCs will greatly enhance the safety of pregnancies, protecting this vulnerable population of altruistic women.
Action Research as a Tool for Professional Development in the K-12 ELT Classroom
Authors: Herrera Luis Javier Pentón
Published: January 2019

Professional development in the K-12 English language teaching (ELT) classroom is an evolving entity that focuses on meeting the needs of changing demographics and latest educational trends. As a result, many texts have been published with the intention of providing the necessary skills educators need for success in their classrooms and to instruct a highly heterogeneous English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) student population. Nonetheless, many of these resources focus on specific scenarios and instructional approaches that may not be applicable for all ESOL teachers. In this Perspectives article, I propose the incorporation of action research as a practice for K-12 teachers with the vision of empowering them to take control of their professional development and continue improving their instructional practices. Furthermore, I share three examples of how I have used action research in my own practice and the benefits obtained by my ESOL department, my ESOL students, and myself as a teacher researcher.

Le perfectionnement professionnel dans les classes d’anglais du système d’éducation K-12 est une réalité changeante qui cherche à concilier les besoins de l’évolution démographique avec ceux des dernières tendances éducatives. De nombreux textes ont été publiés afin de procurer aux éducatrices et éducateurs les compétences nécessaires à leur réussite en classe, et également dans le but de renseigner une population étudiante hautement hétérogène dans le système d’enseignement de l’anglais à des apprenants étrangers (ESOL). Toutefois, plusieurs de ces sources mettent l’accent sur des scénarios spécifiques et des démarches pédagogiques qui peuvent ne pas convenir à toutes les enseignantes et tous les enseignants ESOL. Dans cet article de Perspectives, je recommande la pratique de la recherche-action aux enseignantes et enseignants du système d’éducation K-12 en vue de leur permettre de s’autonomiser pour prendre en main leur propre perfectionnement professionnel et continuer d’améliorer leurs pratiques pédagogiques. Je donne également trois exemples de la façon dont j’ai recouru à la recherche-action dans ma propre activité et des avantages qu’en ont tirés mon département ESOL, mes étudiantes et étudiants ESOL, et moi-même comme enseignant chercheur.
TESL Teacher Educators' Professional Self-Development, Identity, and Agency
Authors: Yazan Bedrettin
Published: January 2019

Using the concepts of identity and agency, this Perspectives article discusses my recent efforts of self-development when designing an identity-oriented Teaching English as a second language (TESL) teacher education course around teacher candidates’ semester-long autoethnography writing assignment called “critical autoethnographic narrative” (CAN). It specifically unpacks the ways I negotiated and enacted my identities of teacher educator and researcher of teacher education while I was incorporating identity as the main goal in teacher candidates’ learning. In closing, this article offers recommendations for TESL teacher educators who consider designing identity-oriented courses and suggests some future research directions.

À l’aide des concepts de l’identité et de l’agentivité (ou capacité d’agir), cet article de Perspectives illustre mes récents efforts d’autoperfectionnement alors que je concevais un cours de formation d’enseignantes et enseignants d’anglais langue seconde axé sur l’identité, et ce, autour de l’imposition d’un projet d’écriture autoethnographique d’un semestre appelé « exposé autoethnographique critique » à des candidates et candidats à l’enseignement. L’article révèle spécifiquement la façon dont je suis parvenu à négocier et faire valoir mes identités de formateur d’enseignants et de chercheur en éducation d’enseignants alors que je faisais de l’identité le principal objectif de l’apprentissage des candidats et candidates à l’ enseignement. En terminant, cet article offre des recommandations à l’intention des formateurs d’enseignantes et enseignants d’anglais langue seconde qui songent à concevoir des cours axés sur l’identité, et ce, en plus de proposer des orientations futures en matière de recherche.

SRPSKO-HRVATSKA KULTURNA SARADNJA U MEDIJSKOM DISKURSU
Authors: Drašković Brankica
Published: January 2019

Cilj rada je bio da se metodom analize sadržaja i kritičke analize diskursa ispitaju dominantne strategije kojima se služe mejnstrim mediji u predstavljanju kulturne saradnje  – pojava, događaja i aktivnosti umetnika iz dve države šest godina nakon sprovođenja prvog istraživanja. Polazeći od istraživačkog pitanja da li su diskursi o srpsko-hrvatskoj kulturnoj saradnji i dalje obeleženi strukturom javnog govora i pređašnjim simboličkim odmeravanjima drugog uzorak za analizu činili su tekstovi objavljeni u onlajn izdanjima dnevnih listova Jutarnji list i Blic prikupljani tokom marta, aprila i maja 2018. godine. Rezultati pokazuju da dominira strategija spektakularizovanog predstavljanja i to pre svega na individualnom nivou. Za razliku od prethodnog istraživanja kada je nacionalistički diskurs pod uticajem već postojeće socio-kognitivne osnove koju čini ideološka podela ’mi’ i ’oni’ bio ’umiveniji’ i ’skriveniji’ od onog iz devedesetih, sada je postao izraženiji. Oblikuju ga manipulativne strategije: diferencijacije, konfrontacije, prećutkivanja i zaborava, kojima se izražava polarizovani odnos između suprotstavljenih grupa – srpske i hrvatske. S druge strane, detektovani antinacionalistički diskurs kroz kritičke kontranarative u predstavljanju pojedinih tema i umetnika baštini ’kulturu neslaganja i otpora’, jeste skrajnut, ali ukazuje da dualizam medijskog diskursa reflektuje, uslovno rečeno, i dve forme kulturnog prostora koji paralelno egzistiraju u kontekstu srpsko-hrvatske kulturne saradnje.
FRAZEMI SA SOMATIZMOM GLAVA U FRANCUSKOM, ŠPANSKOM I SRPSKOM JEZIKU Konceptualno polje ʻčovekovo ponašanje᾿
Authors: Drobnjak Dragana , Gudurić Snežana , Šulović Ksenija
Published: January 2019

U radu razmatramo francuske, španske i srpske frazeme sa somatizmom fr. tête / šp. cabeza / srp. glava koji pripadaju semantičkom polju ʻčovekovo ponašanjeʼ, sa ciljem da utvrdimo (ne)istovetnost koncepata koje oni izražavaju, kao i (ne)podudarnost njihove leksičko-semantičke strukture. Korpus, ekscerpiran iz opštih i frazeoloških rečnika i elektronskih izvora, pripada standardnom francuskom, španskom i srpskom jeziku. Raznolikost korpusa zahtevala je dva pristupa u klasifikaciji građe, te smo u prvu grupu uvrstile frazeme utemeljene na pojmovnim metaforama, a u drugu one analizirane metodom semantičke dekompozicije.
INFORMATIKAI SZAKSZAVAK A VAJDASÁGI MAGYAR NYELVHASZNÁLATBAN
Authors: Pastor Kiči Marija
Published: January 2019

A dolgozat célja a vajdasági magyar nyelvhasználatban előforduló informatikai szakszavak vizsgálata olyan szempontból, hogy mennyire egyeztethetőek a Magyarországon alkalmazott terminológiával. E célból a jelenleg egyetlen létező vajdasági kiadású kétnyelvű (szerb–magyar és magyar–szerb) szakszótár (Velisek, 2008) terminusait vizsgáljuk és vetjük össze egyrészt egy saját kidolgozású háromnyelvű (angol–szerb–magyar) informatikai szójegyzék magyar kifejezéseivel, másrészt viszont különféle online forrásokban fellelhető adatokkal. A kutatás tehát elsősorban analitikus és összehasonlító módszerekre támaszkodik, indokoltsága pedig azzal támasztható alá, hogy a szaknyelvi regiszter keretében nagyobbfokú egységesítésre lenne szükség az általánosan elfogadott magyar terminológiai standard viszonylatában. A kutatás eredményei ilyen tekintetben nagyrészt alátámasztották a hipotézist, miszerint a vizsgált szóanyag magyar szakkifejezései sokhelyütt sajátos vajdasági regionális alakban fordulnak elő, s ez egyértelműen rámutat a terminológiai kutatások és szakszótárkésztési tevékenységek szükségességére a vajdasági magyar tudományos és szakmai élet területén.
Rodno zasnovano nasilje u partnerskim odnosima mladih – mogući pristup prevenciji
Authors: Perić Prkosovački Bojana , Ileš Marina , Trivanović Marija
Published: January 2019

U radu se ukazuje na rasprostranjenost rodno zasnovanog nasilja među mladima na osnovu podataka u vezi sa nasiljem u ranim partnerskim vezama. Opisuje se pravno-strateški okvir koji uređuje obaveze i odgovornosti institucija u okviru sistema obrazovanja u pogledu zaštite učenica/-ka od nasilja. Posebno se ističe značaj i potreba preventivnog rada sa mladima, kako bi se doprinelo povećanju svesti o neprihvatljivosti diskriminacije i nasilnog ponašanja, posebno u partnerskim odnosima.

Preventivni rad sa mladima i mogućnosti realizacije različitih aktivnosti u nastavnim i vannastavnim aktivnostima prikazan je kroz primer saradnje nevladinih organizacija i srednjih škola na teritoriji Republike Srbije u okviru projekta „Nulta tolerancija na rodno zasnovano nasilje“ Autonomnog ženskog centra. Ističe se značaj koordinirane saradnje relevantnih aktera na lokalnom nivou kao osnove za pravovremenu i adekvatnu zaštitu i podršku učenicama/-cima  koji su izloženi nasilju.

Na osnovu prakse razvijene u Medicinskoj školi „7. april“ u Novom Sadu, opisuje se primer saradnje nevladinog sektora i srednje škole, sistematskog internog informisanja učenica/-ka, kao i nastavnog i stručnog osoblja. Mogući oblik preventivnog rada sa mladima u srednjim školama na temu rodno zasnovanog nasilja ilustrovan je primerom scenarija časa odeljenjskog starešine.
