The present article deals with an increasing number of words which have recently appeared in the English language due to the drastic changes in social, political, economic realms as well as science and technology. Constant technological and scientific progress as surely as active development of cultural, spiritual and everyday spheres of life may be a powerful stimulus for the continual enrichment of English lexicon. The English language is monthly enriched by new lexical units which are introduced into official dictionaries and thesauri in order to extend its vocabulary. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to provide comprehensive linguistic research of innovative food-related lexical units, collocations, expressions and notions as well as to observe productive word-building patterns used for coining new words. Firstly, we examine fundamental works on the subject of neology, neologisms and their word-formation types as a linguistic phenomenon. Secondly, the focus of attention is on structure and semantics of food-related coinages which have recently come into use. Moreover, we concentrate on blending as the most frequently occurring word-formation type used to create neologisms in the sphere of gastronomy and related domains. In addition, various types of lexical blends are discussed as well as their high degree of productivity. Finally, we make conclusions and suggestions for further linguistic investigations.

This research aimed to describe and formulate the models of early childhood parenting in families whose mothers were factory workers. In this case study an explorative descriptive qualitative research method was used. The participants of the study, who were selected using random sampling and snowball methods, were composed of 1230 families having 0-4 years old children, and 123 children whose mothers were workers in wig and fake eyelashes factory in Padamara, Purbalingga District. The data were collected via interview, observation, and documentation techniques, and were analyzed through content analysis and comparative analysis techniques. The results showed that there were two types of early childhood parenting models, first, family-based parenting model, and second, parenting model by alternative caregivers. The family-based parenting model consisted of two subtypes of parenting models, namely (1) parenting by the nuclear family; in this model, the child was raised by the father; (2) parenting by extended family; in this model, there were two models of parenting being the model of parenting by the grandmother, and that by the relatives (aunt). As for the model of parenting by alternative caregivers, children were taken care of by babysitters who were living around the children's residence. Each parenting model represented different parenting styles. The model of parenting by the grandmother represented permissive parenting style; the model of parenting by babysitters represents semi permissive-semi authoritative parenting style; the model of parenting by the relatives (aunt) represented semi authoritative parenting style; the model of parenting by fathers represented authoritative with tendencies semi-authoritarian parenting style.

The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between parental involvement and students' academic achievement using meta-analysis method. In the research, Proquest Digital Dissertations, Web of Science, ERIC, Council of Higher Education Thesis Center and Turkish Academic Network and Information Center were scanned, and 53 studies in accordance with the study criteria were included in the meta-analysis. Inclusion criteria includes research on the relationship between parental involvement and academic achievement, having sufficient quantitative data such as correlation value or regression coefficient, studies involving primary, secondary or high school students and their families. The correlation values of the included studies were converted into Fisher z values. The average effect size was evaluated by Comprehensive Meta Analysis V3 (CMA) Program. As a result of the study, it was seen that parental involvement affects academic achievement. In addition, it was observed that the relationship between parental involvement and academic achievement did not differ significantly according to course areas, school levels and geographical areas. In this context, suggestions have been developed for ensuring parental involvement and for future researches.

Ethnic tolerance is one of key issues of global and national order and is considered to be one of the necessary conditions for effective professional training. The aim of our research was to determine the background factors of students' ethnic tolerance, its components and levels. Using two methods -- Tolerance Index by Soldatova and our own questionnaire -- allowed us to determine tolerance level in students of pedagogical specialties of Lviv region universities in Ukraine. We identified some fundamental factors of the effective formation of tolerance: the acceptance of cultural and national features of an individual, the ability to constructive cooperation and dialogue regardless of ethnicity, the ability and desire to listen to the interlocutor and understand his point of view. In the process of learning, students acquire the initial skills of professional and social communication and master the foundations of tolerant behaviour. The formation of ethnic tolerance is facilitated by the following factors: family upbringing, positive communication with representatives of other nationalities, knowledge of cross-cultural differences, travelling to other countries, studying at a higher education institution.

The paper presents the experience of the media education project for journalism students at Sumy State University. The workshops dealt with different media categories (media agencies, media technologies, media languages, media audience, media representations) and necessary components of communicative competence (technical information competence, information competence, social information competence, technical media competence, media competence, social media competence). During October 2017 - January 2018, five workshops and seminars were held. For each activity, input and output survey was conducted to assess the extent to which the level of knowledge and skills of the participants on a particular topic increased, as well as how the participants evaluated the project. On average, 32 people took part in each workshop, 78% of them filled in the questionnaires (in total 140 input and 112 output questionnaires were analysed). The results showed that despite the high level of initial knowledge of the participants, the training course contributed to their understanding of certain media categories and other specific issues. The participants also pointed out the importance and relevance of the information for their professional activity. The survey of 29 regular project participants and 27 professional journalists working in the mass media of Sumy Region was conducted to assess the project effectiveness. The participants highly assessed their knowledge of media literacy. The students' results were similar to those of professionals' (in the assessment of knowledge acquired, understanding the notion of media literacy, determining the main tasks of media education and the most effective ways of acquiring media competences). However, the students evaluated their analytical skills lower and rarely applied them. Further workshops will be aimed at dealing with this issue. The analysis of survey results proves the efficiency of the combination of formal and non-formal teaching methods for journalism students. It is important both for the training participants and the universities as they have become more competitive and able to face the challenges of academic education nowadays. The experience described can be implemented by other academic institutions to improve the quality of journalism education in Ukraine.

This paper represents a multimodal analysis of the paraverbal (prosodic and gesture) features of expressive female political speech in Latin America and Spain. The language corpus consisted of public speeches delivered by Spanish-speaking female politicians Eva Peron, Christina de Kirchner and Manuela Carmena. The article includes an overview of theoretical approaches to female speech studies and follows current trends in modern sociolinguistics, which, on the one hand, accumulate the classical techniques (particularly, experimental methods) of studying the gender-related specifics of the oral female speech based on social standing, age and professional affiliation, and, on the other hand, reflect the latest approaches to the contrastive analysis of socio-political discourse in the &quot;Spanish-Speaking World&quot; (Spain and Latin America). This contributes to the study of gender, speech effect and comparative issues. We offer an audiovisual analysis method for studying voice and kinetic means of the expressive speech of female politicians in Spain and Latin America. This allows determining the ethno-specific correlates of expressiveness in a speech of female politicians at the verbal and paraverbal levels and building an updated model of female political expressiveness based on the integrity of its verbal and paraverbal categories.

The article describes the features of teaching English in Bukovyna (a region in western Ukraine, which was a part of former AustroHungarian Empire) in the late 19th century and the manifestation of the European leading pedagogical ideas in English textbooks of the period. The emergence of the English language teaching methodology in Bukovyna is reflected in the school curricula of the region. The functions of foreign language textbooks are presented, which include: communicative; informational; organisational and managerial; developing and educating. English textbooks have been analysed according to these functions and criteria developed in modern methodology. The two main groups of English textbooks were differentiated: grammar references and readers. It was found that the structure and content of English textbooks corresponded to the curriculum approved by the Austro-Hungarian Ministry of Culture and Education. A lot of attention was paid to grammar material which was presented in German (the official language of the Empire) in the form of rules and commentaries; the exercises were mainly translational, reproductive and non-communicative. The reader included literary excerpts of different genres without providing pre-reading or post-reading tasks. The textbooks analysis proved the use of the approaches and principles of the grammar-translation method of teaching foreign languages which implied predominance of learning grammar, writing and translation over speaking.

In recent years, the number of refugee English language learners (ELLs) in the United States has increased exponentially (Edwards, 2016). Yet, many schools are unprepared to meet the cultural and academic needs of these learners. Recent research on this topic has indicated that a number of strategies can be used to prepare refugee ELLs in the acquisition of linguistic proficiency, literacy skills, and content knowledge in their second language while ensuring that these students meet the same academic achievement standards as non-ELL students. In this chapter, we discuss the use of mini-lessons as a strategy that can aid English as a Second Language (ESL) teachers and promote reflexive and collaborative classroom environments.

Interest is growing among out-of-school time (OST) educators in integrating the arts into STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) programming (e.g., Kelton &amp; Saraniero, 2018). Arts-integrated STEM--or STEAM--programming now takes place in a wide variety of OST environments, from relatively institutional learning settings, such as a library, to emergent or fluid settings, such as a pop-up program in a housing development community room. Educators often consider OST environments to be conducive to creative and conceptually ambitious STEAM programming because these spaces have the potential to deconstruct rigid boundaries between disciplines that formal education often reinforces. In this article, the authors discuss an OST STEAM program titled Zoom! that they designed and implemented in a summer camp in July 2019. Zoom! used visual arts strategies to support elementary-aged children in thinking about and communicating systems-level ideas related to the human microbiome--the community of single-celled organisms that live on and inside the human body.

This chapter focused on the notion of implementing Civil Rights-themed literature with elementary-aged students through interactive read alouds. With traditional pre-packaged scripted curriculum programs, teachers are challenged with implementing additional literature and utilizing resources to promote an expansive variety of learning experiences. Sample texts and interactive activities were addressed and provided for teachers to use as an initial starting point for introducing Civil Rights-themed literature in their classrooms. Lastly, implications for teacher professional development were addressed in an effort to provide teachers and teacher candidates with a space to explore a variety of authentic multicultural children's literature.

The value of a dictionary is traditionally considered to be proportional to its physical volume, measured in the number of entries. However, the amount of useful data varies depending on existing hypertextual links across a dictionary. Therefore, its utility might also be calculated as proportional to the number of useful links among its structural parts which can interact in a similar way as neurons do via synapse links, provided that the number of links turns out to be exponentially greater than the number of entries. Today's lexicographic practice, as well as an experiment held by the author with his own developed onomasiological electronic dictionary of phraseological synonyms &quot;IdeoPhrase&quot;, appears to demonstrate that the main criterion for establishing links automatically is the repetition of each kind of signs (stylistic labels, graphical word, metalinguistic comments). Automatically generated hypertextual links can be used for finding out semantic relations of different types among lexemes (synonymic, antonymic and others), semantic equivalence or similarity among lexemes in different languages (which is close to automatic translation), as well as compiling a new dictionary. The fact that generated relation established by ? computer constitute new useful knowledge which has not been directly input by the compiler, qualifies this algorithm as artificial intelligence engine.

This chapter presents drama-based pedagogy as an instructional strategy to increase comprehension of a novel or informational text in a content area, to encourage collaborative discussions about a text, and to help students apply knowledge acquired from a text to one's own life and world. This essay proceeds with a brief discussion of relevant theory and research. It introduces principles that were presented during a workshop held at the Texas Association of Literacy Educators (TALE) 2017 Conference that was designed to introduce teachers to drama-based pedagogy. This chapter also provides educators guidelines for implementing this type of drama-based activity in secondary content classes.

Research suggests developmental bibliotherapy has a transformative effect on participants (Adams &amp; Pitre, 2000). Specifically, bibliotherapy has been shown to develop a reader's empathy towards others (Comer-Kidd &amp; Castano, 2013) and positively influence a reader's attitude towards individual differences (Routel, 2009; Gavigan &amp; Kurtts, 2010). Through the constructs of developmental bibliotherapy and literature circles, the use of adolescent literature enhances preservice teachers' attitudes toward students impacted by disabilities. Preservice teachers in a required literacy course within an educator preparation program participated in literature circles and read young adolescent literature with protagonists impacted by disabilities. This chapter presents ways literature circles impacted preservice teachers.

Critical literacy is widely accepted as an important element of culturally relevant pedagogy. In this article, we detail results of a study into how six teachers in rural Eastern Canada purposefully incorporated critical literacy into teaching and learning activities in their classrooms from a culturally relevant pedagogical stance. Findings highlight teachers' intentional planning that embeds critical literacy, critical literacy in the wider community, and use of multimodal practices in teaching for critical literacy. The critical literacy practices of these teachers reflect their thinking about knowledge and knowledge construction as one key aspect of their culturally relevant pedagogy.
