The European Language Portfolio as an Educational Innovation in Primary and Secondary Schools: You Have to Catch Them Young?/Europski jezični portfolio kao obrazovna inovacija u osnovnim i srednjim školama: Uhvatite ih dok su mladi?
Authors: Sešek Urška , Skela Janez 
Published: June 2016

AbstractThe paper presents a study of the implementation of the European Language Portfolio, an innovative material aimed at boosting learner autonomy and development of multilingual communicative competences in learners of all ages. The monitoring of the piloting of the ELP in Slovenian primary and secondary school over several years included a survey of 1,634 students aged 10 to 17. The survey is analysed with a view to presenting the often overlooked perspective of the end-users of educational innovation, focusing on how learner age affects their patterns of use of the new material as well as their attitudes towards and perceptions of it. The results suggest that age definitely played a role in the learners’ reception of the ELP; the levels and types of engagement with the material and the learners’ perceptions of its difficulty, enjoyability and value for their growth as (language) learners were lower among secondary students than among primary students almost across the board. Age probably played a role in this via two related factors. Greater cognitive maturity seems not to have contributed to a better reception of the innovation; the poorer results in primary schools probably reflect the common decrease of motivation for schoolwork through the teenage years. Key words: age; educational innovation; learner autonomy; learner characteristics; materials; pilot study.---SažetakRad prikazuje istraživanje o primjeni Europskog jezičnog portfolia, inovativnog materijala namijenjenog poticanju autonomije učenika i razvoju višejezičnih komunikacijskih kompetencija učenika svih dobnih uzrasta. Za praćenje probnog uvođenja EJP-a u osnovne i srednje škole u Sloveniji u razdoblju od nekoliko godina anketirana su 1643 učenika u dobi od 10 do 17 godina. Anketa je analizirana s namjerom prikazivanja često izostavljene perspektive krajnjih korisnika obrazovne inovacije, s naglaskom na način na koji učenikov uzrast utječe na uzorak korištenja novoga materijala, kao i na njihove stavove i njegov doživljaj. Rezultati ukazuju na to da dob učenika svakako ima ulogu u prihvaćanju EJP-a; razine i vrste angažmana s materijalom i učenička percepcija složenosti, uživanje i vrijednost za njihov razvoj kao učenika (jezika) bili su niži kod učenika srednjih škola nego kod učenika osnovnih škola u cijelom uzorku. Dob u tome vjerojatno ima ulogu s pomoću dva povezana čimbenika. Veća kognitivna zrelost, čini se, ne doprinosi boljem prihvaćanju inovacije; slabiji rezultati u osnovnoj školi vjerojatno su odraz uobičajenog smanjenja motivacije za školski rad tijekom tinejdžerskih godina. Ključne riječi: dob; obrazovna inovacija; autonomija učenika; karakteristike učenika; materijali; pilot istraživanje.
The Issue of End of First Term Final Grading/Problem zaključivanja školskih ocjena na kraju prvog polugodišta
Authors: Margetić Nikola 
Published: June 2016

AbstractThe aim of this research was to examine the attitudes of class and single subject primary school teachers, as well as secondary school teachers, towards the abolition of first term final grades in the Republic of Croatia. The study has shown that this novel practice is not accepted well by teachers. Both class and subject teachers think that end of term final grades serve as useful feedback for pupils and thus positively contribute to pupils’ performance. The participants in the survey believe that the abolition of end of term final grades will also lead to poorer final results achieved by pupils at the end of the school year. The study has also shown that female participants respond to grading with a higher level of stress than their male counterparts. Key words: grading; lower primary class teachers; pupils; subject teachers; term.---SažetakCilj ovog istraživanja bio je istražiti mišljenja učitelja razredne i predmetne nastave u osnovnoj školi i nastavnika u srednjoj školi, o ukidanju zaključivanja ocjena na polugodištu u Republici Hrvatskoj. Istraživanje je pokazalo kako se ta novost ne prihvaća u zbornicama. Učitelji i nastavnici smatraju kako je zaključna ocjena na polugodištu kvalitetna povratna informacija učeniku koja pridonosi boljim rezultatima učenika. Ispitanici smatraju da će zbog ukidanja zaključivanja ocjena učenici i na kraju godine postizati lošije rezultate. Također se pokazalo da ispitanice stresnije doživljavaju ocjenjivanje od ispitanika.Ključne riječi: nastavnici; ocjenjivanje; polugodište; učenici; učitelji.

Asylstrømmen fra Russland til Norge i 2015: Bevisst russisk politikk?
Authors: Moe Arild , Rowe Lars 
Published: June 2016

In the autumn of 2015, 5500 migrants traveling through Russia along the “Arctic route” applied for political asylum in Norway. Some observers claimed that Russia deliberately channeled migrants towards the north with the purpose of destabilizing Norway and that Russia had changed procedures in their border zone to facilitate the wave of migrants. In this article we briefly discuss the hybrid warfare theory and assess alternative explanations that might account for the sudden increase in migrants. Detailing formal and informal practices in the Norwegian-Russian border regime we argue that Russian practices were not altered in any significant way in 2015, but that the Norwegian side had an incorrect impression of the Russian border regime being more restrictive than it really was. Finland was in a similar situation. The most convincing explanation for the wave of asylum-seekers is the self-interest of migrants who found a cheaper and less risky route. Both in Norway and Finland the border regimes were tightened as a consequence of the increased migration, however. As a result, their policies became more aligned with Russian priorities.

Eit evig Russland: Oleg Platonov, Institutt for russisk sivilisasjon og nasjonaliseringa av russisk tenking
Authors: Mjør Kåre Johan 
Published: June 2016

This article discusses the Russian nationalist Oleg Platonov and his Institute for Russian Civilization, a project established for publishing both contemporary works and the classics of Russian intellectual history. Special attention is given to how Platonov, who is otherwise known for his extreme anti-Westernism and anti-Semitism, within the framework of this project actively disseminates not only his own idea of a unique and self-sufficient Russian civilization, but also numerous classics of Russian thought, in particular of the Slavophile current. Various Russian thinkers are presented here as the embodiment of “Russian national thought” and the expression of an alleged “ideology of the Russian people”. On the basis of this analysis, the article reviews Platonov’s contribution to contemporary Russian nationalism more generally and its tendency to make the marginal mainstream.

Published: June 2016

Introduction: With the prevalence of peri‐implantitis increasing, management of the disease is an important therapy to consider. The goal of a dual augmentation technique in the treatment of peri‐implantitis is to address hard and soft tissue deficiency simultaneously. This report of two cases presents clinical and radiographic outcomes for surgical treatment of peri‐implantitis with a dual augmentation technique in advanced peri‐implantitis cases with inadequate keratinized tissue.Case Series: Two patients diagnosed with advanced peri‐implantitis exhibiting bleeding on probing (BOP), probing depth (PD) >6 mm, and bone loss >3 mm were treated. Affected implants were treated with specific surface decontamination protocol followed by using a combination of recombinant human platelet‐derived growth factor with a mixture of freeze‐dried bone allograft and deproteinized bovine‐derived bone. Subsequently, acellular dermal matrix was used as a membrane to cover defects and augment soft tissue volume at the same time. The dual augmentation technique demonstrated significant radiographic bone gain in 3 to 5 months and increase in mucosal thickness that appeared to be stable during the follow‐up period of 15 months. Surgical reentry provided further evidence to confirm radiographic bone fill. Clinical examination also revealed significant reduction in PD and BOP.Conclusion: Within the limitations of this report, treatment of peri‐implantitis with a dual augmentation technique appeared to enhance bone and soft tissue regeneration in advanced peri‐implantitis cases with existing mucogingival defects.

Diagnostic Accuracy of Mean Platelet Volume in the Diagnosis of Acute Coronary Syndromes among Patients with Acute Chest Pain at the Emergency Room of Philippine Heart Center
Authors: Abubakar Al-Zamzam , Pineda Minnie Jane 
Published: June 2016

Introduction. Mean platelet volume (MPV), an index for platelet size, is believed to be associated with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). This study aims to establish the association of MPV and ACS in the local setting and to further evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of MPV in the detection of ACS.
Methodology. Adult patients presented with chest pain seen at the ER were submitted for complete blood count (CBC). The specimen was processed for MPV and platelet count using Beckman-Coulter ACT 5Diff hematology auto-analyzer. Patients were grouped into ACS and non-ACS. Independent t-test was used to determine statistically significant difference between these two groups. Diagnostic cut-off point was determined using the area under the curve.
Results. A total of 150 adult patients were examined for MPV and platelet counts. There was a significant difference of MPV between the two groups at p value <0.0001. The MPV of patients with ACS was increased at 8.3 fL compared to 7.3 fL in patients not diagnosed with ACS. Cut-off points predictive of ACS based on the area under the curve of the ROC curve revealed a significant test (AOC is equal to 0.868 95% CI (0.812-0.924) p = <0.0001). At cut-off point of 8.4 fL, the positive predictive value and specificity for ACS were 100%, sensitivity of 43.6 and a negative predictive value of 46.2. The number of platelets was increased in non-ACS group.
Conclusion. The MPV of acute chest patients diagnosed with ACS was significantly higher compared to patients not diagnosed with ACS. Increased MPV at 8.4 fL was highly specific and predictive of ACS. However, the sensitivity and negative predictive value were low. Platelet count of non-ACS group was increased.
UMA ANÁLISE DAS REPRESENTAÇÕES DE ARTEMÍSIA GENTILESCHI (1593-1654) EM ESTUDOS DE CARÁTER BIOGRÁFICO
Authors: Tedesco Cristine 
Published: June 2016

Este trabalho propõe uma análise das representações de Artemísia Gentileschi (1593-1654) na historiografia da arte italiana recente, considerando, principalmente, os capítulos respectivamente intitulados: “Fino a qual segno giungessel’ingegno, e la mano d’una tal donna”: geografia e rango diArtemisiaGentileschi e Ritorno a Roma: 1620-1627, dos pesquisadores Roberto Contini e Francesco Solinas – os quais têm se dedicado ao estudo da vidobra da pintora nas últimas três décadas. Os capítulos estão publicados no catálogo referente à exposição ArtemisiaGentileschi:Storiadi una passione realizada em Milão (2011-2012). Tendo em vista o caráter biográfico dos estudos de Contini e Solinas, nosso objetivo é discutir como a trajetória de Artemísia é representada ao longo dos textos, problematizando também, em que medida as questões gênero, ilusão biográfica e redes de relações são preocupações apresentadas nos dois capítulos. Além disso, a partir da trajetória Artemisia Gentileschi o trabalho realiza uma investigação acerca da rede de relações construída pela pintora nas cortes e instituições nas quais atuou na primeira metade do século XVII. Problematizando as normas sociais e a cultura do período, o trabalho discute como Artemisia e outras mulheres artistas de seu tempo se inseriram e atuaram no mundo da produção artística. Enquanto as normas sociais do período tornavam difícil o aprendizado e a profissionalização das mulheres, em especial no campo da produção artística, ao mapearmos as fontes nos deparamos com uma atuação significativa das mulheres no mundo da criação. A partir das trajetórias que revelam a atuação feminina na produção artística, nos perguntamos que outras histórias podemos escrever: uma outra história da arte, da pintura e das mulheres, tendo em vista limites mais flexíveis para as fronteiras de gênero.

CULTURAS POPULARES: TRAJETÓRIAS CONCEITUAIS E CONSTRUÇÕES DE SENTIDO
Authors: Paulino Thiago 
Published: June 2016

Partindo do princípio que os conceitos surgem de realidades construídas por atores sociais, o presente artigo pretende fazer um levantamento e discussão a respeito de alguns conceitos de cultura popular, observando seus diversos sentidos e contextos históricos em que foram construídos. Inicialmente será apresentada a abordagem dos românticos e folcloristas no contexto Europeu como os Irmãos Grimm e Willian John Thoms e posteriormente a evolução do conceito no Brasil, através de alguns “folcloristas” Brasileiros. Também é trabalhada a relação de Mário de Andrade com a investigação das manifestações populares na busca do “substrato” de um “Brasil mais profundo”. Em seguida é demonstrado como o termo adquiriu sentidos de instrumento ideológico no contexto politico da década de 60 durante o Regime Militar no Brasil através de movimentos como os Centros Populares de Cultura ou os Movimentos de Cultura Popular. E por fim é observada a relação com os estudos contemporâneos de cultura nos quais se abordam termos como “entre-lugar” e “hibridismo”. Atores como Canclini, Bhabha e Hall apontam direções de olhares sobre o mundo de hoje suas contradições e conflitos quando se fala em cultura e poder. Para melhor entendimento dos diversos significados por trás da “cultura popular” foi feito um levantamento bibliográfico e de contextos históricos onde estava situado cada conceito. Essa discussão se torna exetremamente pertinete para enteder os usos e as relações de poder por trás deste cocneito polissêmico. Isso provoca o prórpio entendimento de como são tratados os segmentos populares e suas manifestações criativas. Manifestações essas que permitem narrar seus cotidiano e demonstrar seu protagonismo social. DOI: 10.21665/2318-3888.v3n6p255-278

CARTAS DE JUAN NATALICIO GONZÁLEZ PARA O SEU MESTRE JUAN O’LEARY; A AUTONOMIA LITERÁRIA E POLÍTICA DO DISCÍPULO
Authors: Quinteros Marcela Cristina 
Published: June 2016

Juan Natalicio González foi um intelectual paraguaio que, identificado com o revisionismo histórico e filiado ao Partido Colorado, teve um papel central na difusão desse revisionismo além das fronteiras de seu país através das diversas atividades que exerceu ao longo das primeiras décadas do século XX, até sua morte no México em 1966. Aqui serão analisadas as missivas que González endereçou para seu grande mestre, o principal referente do revisionismo histórico paraguaio, Juan Emiliano O’Leary, nos primeiros anos de sua vida intelectual e política. O objetivo desta análise é identificar os projetos literários, editoriais e políticos de González nessa fase e, ao mesmo tempo, compreender o vínculo que o unia a Juan O’Leary. A leitura das cartas que o discípulo González enviou para seu mestre na década de 1920 permitiu identificar que a literatura, o jornalismo e o trabalho editorial foram ferramentas utilizadas por González para atingir suas ambições políticas que, basicamente, orientavam-se a assumir a liderança do Partido Colorado, para depois conquistar o poder. As missivas, em sua maioria escritas enquanto morava em Buenos Aires, revelam o modo de fazer política de González dentro e fora do Paraguai já que, por um lado, manteve um contato permanente com o partido e participava nas decisões editoriais dos jornais partidários e, por outro lado, interferiu diretamente na vida das associações de paraguaios em Buenos Aires. Por último, elas possibilitam identificar a autonomia do discípulo em relação a seu mestre para estabelecer seus próprios projetos. Este artigo tem origem numa pesquisa de doutorado sobre a trajetória de Juan Natalicio González como um intelectual latino-americano plural. DOI: 10.21665/2318-3888.v3n6p90-114
Relationships between mechanical and tribological properties of Zn-15Al-based ternary and quaternary alloys
Authors: Savaşkan Temel , Hekimoğlu Ali Paşa 
Published: June 2016

Abstract
Five ternary Zn-15Al-(1 – 5)Cu and six quaternary Zn-15Al-3Cu-(0.5 – 3)Si alloys were prepared by permanent mold casting for this work. Their unlubricated sliding friction and wear properties were investigated at a pressure of 3 MPa and a sliding speed of 1.5 m s−1 for a sliding distance of 2 500 m using a block-on-disc type tester. The friction coefficient and wear volume of the ternary alloys decreased with increasing copper content, but above 3 % Cu the trend reversed. As the hardness and both tensile and compressive strengths of the ternary alloys increased, their friction coefficient, working temperature and wear volume decreased. However, the trend reversed for the hardness and compressive strength of the quaternary alloys. The correlation between mechanical and tribological test results showed that the wear volume of Zn-15Al-based alloys can be determined in terms of their tensile strength.

AbstractIn this work, plasma–target interactions on tungsten samples, carried out in a Mather-type plasma focus PF-1000 device, were investigated. The experimental results have been compared to 1D model computer simulations. Samples were studied by means of scanning electron microscopy, focused ion beam microscopy and precise measurements of weight loss. Additionally, simulations based on the numerical solution of a 1D heat conductivity equation were carried out. The samples exhibited relatively high resistance to the generated plasma streams. The practical work indicated a loss of about 1.54 mg per plasma focus discharge. The computer model calculations gave a weight loss one magnitude greater. An attempt to explain this discrepancy is given in the paper.
