Full textAbstract:
In this study, we analyze the features of modern imprisonment. The author, first of all, starts by pointing out the trend of penal populism which imposes a series of negative consequences for the entire social system and then evaluates five main theses related to criticism of the criminal sanctions which were indeed raised by Foucault with an aim to determine whether ultimately, today, something has been altered in the era of global integrations, self-proclaimed democratic societies and increasingly loud proclamations for the protection of human rights and freedoms. The following part of the study is committed to contemplating the positive and negative consequences of life imprisonment, as of latterly initiated punishment in the system of criminal sanctions of the Republic of Serbia, with an allusion to sole comparative law solutions.

This paper deals with issues of books survival and literature in the new century, considering the theme in correlation with the essential elements that define it: how the development of new technologies, especially the Internet and social networks, affects bookstores, libraries and publishing houses, but also the language and an alphabet (a creation of new, pictorial letters in modern communication), themes of countries in transition contemporary literature (war) that affect the sense of writing and literature survival in general. By associations of the past imposed on the present, “Big Brother” and “A Clockwork Orange”, and a trip to the Amazon region tribes , which in the 21st century do not have their alphabet, it is trying to provide a vision of the modern world, in which writing and books in their physical form survive as human needs, where the sense of writing leads to equalization with the meaning of life.

Full textAbstract:
In recent years, lead poisoning has received increasing attention as lead production continues to grow and the industry shifts the most polluting processes (e.g., smelting ore and recycling batteries) to low- and middle-income countries. The hazards associated with lead exposures have been well known for centuries while the industry actively promoted lead products. Less well known is how the industry continues to promote the “safe and responsible” use of lead and support research to question the underlying science and avoid regulation. Here I explore the historical context for recent actions that the industry has taken to ensure its longevity. Lead industry associations continue to employ some of the same themes that have proven successful in the past. Efforts to forestall regulatory initiatives to reduce emissions and restrict lead applications continue. Large battery manufacturers and recyclers and their associations place blame on informal-sector recycling to draw focus away from their own emissions. They have sought the cooperation of hired scientific experts and have funded United Nations organizations and nongovernmental organizations to deflect attention from their own contributions to global lead poisoning.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this qualitative study is to document the experiences of students who participated in a flipped classroom during a Grade 11 Modern World History and a Grade 11 Biology course. An abridged literature review revealed the flipped classroom provides enriched opportunities for collaborative learning and for greater teacher-student interaction; however, during the homework phase, some students are not equipped to be independent learners. For this action research project, we collected data from 48 students who completed three sets of qualitative questionnaires and participated in two focus groups. Augmented data included excerpts from reflective journals maintained by the flipped classroom teachers. From the data, three dominant themes surfaced. First, the flipped classroom promoted active learning. Second, it supported stronger relationships among students and their teachers. Third, it activated a steep learning curve. Details of 21st century learning are used to conceptualize the findings. One implication of the study is that, at the start of the flipped experience, teachers need to communicate fluidly to students what the flipped classroom is and is not. Keywords: flipped classroom; action research; 21st century learning

Full textAbstract:
Educators are embracing technology as a key to transforming learning for the 21st century. As the 21st century learning movement emphasizes the development of skills that are seen as uniquely relevant to the modern world, in the educational community, many are looking to technology, such as tablets, as a tool to modernizing classrooms. This research presents a case study of a participatory action research project, where participants provide input into the research process, examining the experiences of a secondary education level student-teacher implementing iPads during practicum. For two weeks, the student teacher integrated a set of 22 iPads into a grade ten Media Literacy unit. Qualitative data from the teacher’s daily blog and a post-practicum interview revealed six main themes in two categories: Teacher Impacts (Planning and Curricular Design, Delivery, Practicum Experience) and Student Impacts (Classroom, Learning Outcomes, Learning Experience). While generalizations to other English Language Arts (ELA) classes cannot be made, the results of this pilot study suggest that tablet technology has the potential to aid the transition to 21st century learning at the secondary level, and warrants further research and attention.

Yakovleva, Ekaterina Sergeevna. "«Back to the Future»: the main historiographical themes and topical problems of the Neolithic of the Urals." Samara Journal of Science 6, no. 3 (September 1, 2017): 206–10. http://dx.doi.org/10.17816/snv201763220.
Full textAbstract:
The following paper deals with some problems of Trans-Urals Neolithic which are associated with the formation and development of basic cultural and chronological concepts. Three stages in conceptual historiography are identified. The first one refers to the mid-second half of the 20th century and is associated with the formation of the first cultogenesis schemes of the late Trans-Urals Stone Age by V.N. Chernetsov, O.N. Bader and L.Ya. Krizhevskaya. At the second stage at the end of the 19th - beginning of the 21st century their ideas were revised by V.T. Kovaleva in the framework of a two-stage and two-line concept. At the same time the hypothesis of V.A. Zakh was developed. Later V.S. Mosin proposed a socio-cultural scheme for the formation of an integrated society in the Neolithic Trans-Urals. The third - the modern stage - began approximately in the second decade of the 21st century when natural scientific data growth forced to reconsider a number of established ideas about the chronology and typology of Neolithic ceramics and ornamental traditions. At the regional level there was a return to the classical three-term periodization; there was a trend towards regionalization of research to clarify the notions of local variants and the chronological position of material complexes, specifics of historical and cultural processes. It is concluded that it is necessary to form a new research paradigm by synthesizing middle-level theories with empirical generalizations.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This article investigates how to find connections between dance education and the development of life skills for the 21st century by interpreting students’ experiences of daring in dance. The article draws on a section of my PhD thesis that focuses on BA students’ lived experiences in modern and contemporary dance. The project is informed by hermeneutic phenomenology, and the material consists of eleven students log books and interviews. One of the main themes in the material is daring in dance, which is connected to a transformative learning process. In this article I dig more deeply into the embodied dimension of such learning process and discuss how the result of this process can be interpreted as developing life skills for the 21st century. The analysis shows that becoming a professional dancer is a vulnerable process, encompassing both fear of failure and learning to trust one’s own competencies. Several of these competencies point toward skills recognised as important to learning in the 21st century, such as flexibility, problem solving, self-direction and social skills. By focusing on everyday embodied experiences of daring in dance, this research provides one example of the development of life skills in higher education based in empirical research.

Abstract: With its own Netflix program, Marie Kondo’s The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up has received a huge cult following. Considering that clutter sweeps 21st century daily living, what this paper aims to do, is to unravel the philosophical foundations of Kondo’s work. Considering the trendiness of the KonMari method, one wonders why and how decluttering modern homes and one’s day-to-day existence inspires certain profound reflections and raises social criticisms. Through a sweeping review of Kondo’s tenets, this paper tackles common philosophical themes such as joy, human existence, happiness, the environment and extension.

Mayberry, John. "“Islamic Medicine”: A true discipline for the 21st century or quackery?" Medico-Legal Journal 90, no. 1 (February 14, 2022): 32–40. http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/00258172211059919.
Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this review is to consider the position of “Islamic Medicine” and whether it is a legitimate form of clinical care or quackery. The analysis is based on published work together with an identification of themes derived from testimonials on practitioners’ websites, as well as a consideration of how such therapies are considered in medical search engines. “Islamic Medicine” covers Traditional or Yunani practice, Prophetic Medicine, Hijama and Ruqya. Their origins are discussed and, subsequently, current-day practice and its relationship to allopathic medicine. Reasons for antagonism to modern medicine are considered and the absence of a rational basis for many of the views expressed. In the case of Yunani medicine, its pre-Islamic origins are identified together with the impact of anti-colonialism and the potential role of clerics in wishing to distance medical care from Galenic concepts. In the case of Hijama, the absence of effective training and regulation and its promotion as a “lost sunna” are discussed alongside claims for miraculous cures. The movement of Ruqyah away from Qur’anic recitation in support of the sick towards a popularised approach to dealing with magic and possession is considered, together with consequential adverse publicity in the media. The consequences of a failure to adopt training practices for Yunani medicine, as recommended by the WHO, are identified. Accredited detailed courses monitored by external statutory regulatory agencies, based in institutions committed to providing the best healthcare, and supporting research would allow “Islamic Medicine” to become a significant role player in contemporary clinical practice and stop present-day quackery.

Full textAbstract:
Emilie Pine is Professor of Modern Drama at University College, Dublin (UCD) and the author of Notes to Self (Tramp Press, 2018), her very successful collection of personal essays. As an academic, she has published extensively in the fields of memory and drama; as an essayist, her work takes us to territories that have been traditionally silenced or edited out of the collective imaginary, both in Ireland and beyond. Her first novel, Ruth & Pen, which will be published in May 2022, explores themes as volatile as infertility, how it affects relationships and how climate change impacts on our 21st-century lives. This interview focuses on Pine’s career as a university lecturer and professional writer. It touches upon some of the themes dealt with in her celebrated collection of essays: her father’s alcoholism, medical and hospital experiences, mental health issues and the eating disorders that she experienced in her early years.

"Improving Critical Thinking Skills in Teaching through Problem-Based Learning for Students: A Scoping Review." International Journal of Learning, Teaching and Educational Research 21, no. 2 (February 28, 2022): 342–62. http://dx.doi.org/10.26803/ijlter.21.2.19.
Full textAbstract:
Critical thinking is an important skill for graduates in 21st century teaching and learning. One of the modern educational pedagogies which can be utilized by educators to inculcate students’ critical thinking skills and improve student learning effectively is the problem-based learning (PBL) approach. The Web of Science, Scopus, and ProQuest databases have been used to source published scientific literature on this topic and develop themes of critical thinking abilities in teaching through PBL for students. This study revealed four major themes and nine sub-themes with regards to critical thinking skills in teaching in relation to PBL. The major themes consisted of the learning environment, content, process, and human capital. The review revealed that most of the studies were conducted to understand critical thinking skills in problem-based learning. This study found that PBL was a major approach used in teaching students, as well as a wide range of other techniques that may develop diverse abilities, such as thinking critically and creatively, solving problems, collaborating, communicating effectively, and global literacy. This paper also highlights the challenges in developing critical thinking among students and identifies topics for further research.

Full textAbstract:
The main objective of the current study is to explore the understandings of school leaders in Pondok Modern Darussalam Gontor (PMDG) about the concept of integrated Islamic schools in the present day. Using a qualitative case study approach, 10 school leaders from PMDG were interviewed. They included six school leaders, three senior teachers, and one senior staff who have important roles at PMDG and involve directly in students’ activities. Based on a thematic analysis, the findings revealed five main themes, namely (1) combining Islamic and modern education, (2) building school and community relationships, (3) integrating theory and practice, (4) producing open-minded persons, and (5) producing future education leaders. This study concludes that Indonesian Islamic schools combine pedagogy of learning based on Islamic principles and worldwide values. In terms of leadership and capacity building, a new strategy is enforced to produce well-balanced human beings for the success of both religious and worldly affairs.

Full textAbstract:
The article is an analysis of the work of the Turkish Nobel Laureate in Literature for 2006, Orhan Pamuk, in the context of the development of modern Turkish society. In recent decades, a process of moderate Islamization has been observed in Turkey, and if until the end of the 1990s the country aspired to Europe, the European community, and officially turned mainly to European values, now there is a reverse movement. European values to a certain extent dominated Turkish literature of the 20th century: various types of freedoms, equality and women’s rights, the secularization of society — the main themes of the leading Turkish novels of the 20th century. It is surprising that the current processes are rather poorly reflected in modern literature. Orhan Pamuk, one of the youngest Nobel laureates and the most famous Turkish writer of the 20th–21st centuries, is a liberal and supporter of Eurocentrism. At the beginning of his career, he played the role of the continuer of the work of a whole galaxy of Turkish authors, whose gaze, despite the difference in political convictions, was focused only on the West and its culture. However, now the diachronic analysis of all his novels shows a reflection of the current serious social changes. In recent novels, Orhan Pamuk, following Turkish society, demonstrates the inclination of his protagonists towards traditional Muslim values. It is obvious that what is happening is a general phenomenon, an example of a deep tendency in the Middle East Muslim culture in general.

Full textAbstract:
Literature, like other art forms, has always served an instrument for resistance, which through various discursive strategies responds to manifestations of oppression, despotism and dogmatism of various kinds. Above all, 20th century literary production — a century that witnessed a proliferation of dictatorships and authoritarian regimes, armed conflicts, wars and genocides, despite humanity's extraordinary progress in multiple areas — was marked by a strong sense of social, cultural or political engagement, which also extends to literary creation in the 21st century. Also in the Portuguese-speaking countries, one of the recurrent themes in modern and contemporary literary production has been the criticism towards the arbitrariness by authoritarian governments, as is the case of the Salazar regime — which stifled Portuguese society for over forty years and prolonged colonial exploitation in Africa — and by the dictatorial regimes established in the second half of the last century in Brazil and other Latin American countries. The aim of this dossier is to present some expressions of critical thinking on the literary production that deals with this subject. Therefore, eight studies devoted to the analysis of works by Portuguese and Brazilian authors who, at different times and through different forms of expression, reacted against authoritarian tendencies in Lusophone societies are gathered here.

Full textAbstract:
The article reveals the content of the “Peterhof ” State Museum-Reserve’s stages of modernization in 2009–2020, analyzes the effectiveness of measures developed by the management of the museum-reserve to support new areas of development, and presents the stages of transformation of a linear management system to a multi-level museum complex. The basis for the article are reports and a number of program documents from the “Peterhof ” State Museum-Reserve, made available for scientific circulation for the first time. The key document of the analysis is the Concept of Development of the Federal State Budgetary Institution of Culture “State Museum- Reserve” Peterhof “for the period 2012–2016, which formulates the main theses of the museum’s transition to a strategic planning system. Along with the preservation of traditional museum functions, in the practical activities of the Peterhof State Museum-Reserve special attention is paid to the innovations introduced in museum practices of the 21st century: creating a museum management system and museum policy in general, a system of external museum communications, a museum positioning system and organizing sustainable interaction with visitors. Relevant components of the concept “image of a modern museum-reserve” are revealed, which correlate with the practical activities of the departments and divisions of the museum under analysis. The author proposes and substantiates an innovative system of continuous visitor support, in which it becomes possible to effectively manage the interaction of the museum and the visitor. The most important economic result of the modernization of the museum-reserve is the formation of effective mechanisms that improve the work of the museum in the conditions of market relations and allow for the establishment of a stable system of interaction with visitors. The presented experience of the Peterhof State Museum-Reserve can become a guide for Russian regional museums-reserves when choosing directions for the development of museum complexes.

Full textAbstract:
In the transition to the delivery of instruction, game-based learning in physical education is the key to filling the instructional gap by giving each student the freedom to develop their skills in the 21st century. This study employed a qualitative research design using a phenomenological approach to acquire an in-depth understanding of students' learning experiences through game-based learning in Physical Education. Participants were chosen through purposive sampling which was participated by 7 students from the Grade 10 level in one of the secondary public schools in the Philippines. Codes and themes were transcribed in the study. Based on the research results, three themes emerged: innovative approach, the functionality of the application, and student engagement and authentic learning experience. Physical education teachers have become innovative and creative in how to deliver instruction, especially in the areas of cognitive and skills acquisition using a game-based approach. This is done to help all students to be creative and adapt to the modern learning environment. This application was practical, usable and accessible for every student both inside and outside of the classroom with offline and online features. This study will equip Physical Education teachers with clarity and a road map to the modern world. This will also provide the required support for students to shift away from traditional classroom learning and become more innovative by producing mobile apps that provide students with games and the freedom to absorb the lesson through a game-based approach.

Full textAbstract:
Within the framework of rich and diverse activities of museums, which include exhibitions, publishing, educational and conservation / restoration activities, a special place is given to international cooperation programs which, if well designed, can play an important role in the cultural diplomacy system of each country. In the process of transformation from a traditional to a modern museum of the 21st century, the Gallery of Matica Srpska has directed an important part of its activities towards international cooperation and thus cultural diplomacy. These activities are realized through hosting of exhibitions of foreign institutions, visiting exhibitions of the Gallery in European museums, organization of joint exhibitions with museums in the region, cooperation with foreign cultural centers and through protocol visits. Well-designed themes and programs that promote national art, connections with other cultures and the culture of other nations, museum activities - exhibitions and publications - become an important tool for better international relations and a foundation for active cooperation among museum institutions throughout Europe.

Full textAbstract:
This study aims to understand the perceptions of Filipino’s registered nurses about nursing in the past, present and in the future. Colaizzi’s methodological approach to phenomenological inquiry was utilized in analyzing the data gathered from this study. The participants of the study are Filipino Registered Nurses who are residing or working either in Filipino or abroad. After significant statements were extracted from the transcripts of the responses and the analysis of the formulated meanings emerged into four themes. The four clustered themes emerged were: EXTINCTION: A course before time, with five subthemes, Nurses are assistants to doctors, Limitation in the scope of learning and practice, Nursing: A woman’s job, Nursing: A calling to serve, and Human touch against mechanical works; ENHANCEMENT: A profession of the modern time, with five subthemes, Enthusiasm in the nursing career, Nurses are respected healthcare providers, More empowered, more opportunities, In search for greener pastures, and Dependence on technology; EMERGENCE: A 21st Century breakthrough in care, with three subthemes, Age of Innovative and technological development, Globally-competent nursing practice, and Computerized Documentation and Recording; and ENCOMPASSING: Nursing as a Caring Profession. These Filipino registered nurses lived and described their rich experiences from a phase of the 4 E’s: Extinction, Enhancement, Emergence and Encompassing Phase. It is quite evident that the nursing profession has greatly evolved through time. As time passed by, the amount of care is not diminished but further enhanced with the advent of modern technology. This study enlightens our eyes to the reality of the nursing profession of the modern times and how it will be in the future.

Full textAbstract:
Thе article explores works about soviet life by soviet, russian, european and american researchers, written in the second half of the 20th century and at the beginning of the 21st century. The understanding of soviet life by european and american authors was determined by studying the nature of totalitarianism. The authors analyzed the features of classical european metaphysics that determined the formation of ideologies (the concept of the ideal state of Plato, the concept of rational laws of historical development of K. Marx), the psychology of the «man of the masses», the influence of propaganda and alternative ways of controlling the masses, the importance of the image of a Superpowerful Empire for modern Russia. The key authors are K. Popper, H. Arendt, Z. Brzezinski and K. Friedrich, J. Nye, W. Laqueur. Soviet authors analyzed the themes of protecting humanistic values and civil rights and freedoms, transforming culture under state control and formation of the aesthetics of totalitarian art, the existence of an individual in collectivist environment, the formation and destruction of the special communication environment of the soviet world: a system of signs and myths. The most interesting authors are G. S. Pomerants, I. N. Golomstock, B. E. Groys, P. Weil and A. Genis, G. L. Smirnova, A. A. Zinoviev, M. K. Mamardashvii, M. P. Kapustina, Yu. A. Levada. Some studies are concentrated on the legacy of the USSR as a kind of lost civilization – the analysis of everyday life, creating dictionaries and encyclopedias of soviet life, the studying of memories and diaries. The works by L. V. Belovinsky, I. B. Orlova, N. B. Lebina, N. N. Kozlova are notable.

Full textAbstract:
Russia’s relationship with nation is marred by contradictions that stem from its place in comparison to the West. Cultural nationalism in artistic production originated with the arrival of the Peredvizhniki [Wanderers] in the 1870s. Moscow merchant Pavel Tretyakov, in collecting Russian and European art, openly embraced a nation that encompassed Western ideas in conjunction with distinctly Russian themes. The unparalleled collecting of French modern art by Moscow merchants Sergei Shchukin and Ivan Morozov in the early 20th century continued this embrace. The nature of their collected paintings produced shockwaves in late tsarist and Soviet society and politics before being inculcated into Russian national identity in the 21st century. This article explores the life of Henri Matisse’s The Dance (1909), commissioned by Sergei Shchukin. It follows the work across time and regimes as it assumes pride of place in not only Russia’s national collections but also within its identity. Through a focus on the 2008 exhibition From Russia at the Royal Academy of Arts in London, this article examines Russia’s relations and protection of this work to understand, why even as the country seeks to define itself once more actively through its opposition to the West, their cultural diplomacy speaks to an openness built on a transnational history of the most prized works in their national collections.

Full textAbstract:
The science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) field is a crucial global driver for the development of various aspects of modern society, such as the economy, technology, education, and skills of the 21st-century workforce. All countries strive to produce STEM talent to meet future economic markets. Sustained professional development (PD) can support reform in STEM. Teachers need professional training to improve their knowledge, understanding, and teaching practices, which affect the development of their students’ meaningful learning. As a result, a systematic study was carried out to identify STEM PD activities and their influence on teachers’ knowledge and instructional methods. The peer-reviewed publications were published between 2017 and 2021, and Scopus, Web of Science, and EBSCOhost databases were used to find them. A comprehensive review of these empirical articles produced a total of 15 subthemes under activities and impact themes. The results exhibited that the dominant activities of STEM PD included engineering activities that indirectly had an extremely high impact on teachers’ knowledge and teaching practices related to engineering design, the problem-solving process as it relates to the engineering design process, and experiences of scientists and engineers. Finally, several recommendations for STEM PD sustainability and future research reference are presented.

Full textAbstract:
The following thirteen theses expose the anthropology of the homo rhetoricus and attempt to outline a new design of philosophy for the 21st century: I. Man is a rhetorical being. - II. The general power of speech exists as a fundamental and universal phenomenon in human life world and is the necessary foundation of all artificial rhetoric. - III. Man as homo rhetoricus is the main object of a fundamental, rhetorical anthropology. - IV. The categories of classical rhetoric have a heuristic function with respect to the anthropology of the homo rhetoricus. - V. The five basic faculties of invention, disposition, elocution, memory and performance form a heuristic pattern for a fundamental, rhetorical conception of spirit (Geist). - VI. The (post-)modern existence of homo rhetoricus is dominated by the figure of irony. - VII. Ironic alterity also designates the culture in the beginning of the 21st century. - VIII. The danger of an unlimited postmodern irony consists of an infinite ironical regress. - IX. Philosophy in general is also a creation of the homo rhetoricus. - X. The rhetorical metacritique of philosophy is directed against classical metaphysics as well as against its antagonist - postmodern deconstruction . - XI. Both - the supposed evidence of dogmatic metaphysics and the neosophistical evidence of non-evidence are contingent. - XII. The rhetorical enlightenment does not aim at a pure postmodern deconstruction of philosophy but consequently reaches forward to its fundamental, rhetorical reconstruction. - XIII. A rhetorically well-informed and enlightened metaphysics represents a new and positive mode of existence of the homo rhetoricus.

Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to the dialogue of cultures in the context of modern educational strategies and justifies the importance of Chinese themes in Russian culture. Despite the fact that until very recently the Russian-Chinese dialogue has mainly taken place in the political and economic space, and the actual cultural communications were selective and unsystematic, in the 21st century the Great Silk Road has a chance to become a signal artery for Eurasia, a chord of permanent intercultural communications, and an instrument of cultural transfer. The author proves that an urgent task today is the reflection of the prospects in Russian-Eastern (and Russian-Chinese in particular) polylogue in the sphere of culture and educational activity, substantiates the importance of learning the basics of Far Eastern Chinese civilization and creating the potential for mutual understanding and productive dialogue. The author focuses on educational perspectives of such a dialogue in contemporary Russia, describing a project to mobilize the resources of cultural polylogue that he personally implemented at the Yaroslavl state pedagogical university named after K. D. Ushinsky, as well as at universities in Moscow (Moscow State University, Institute for the History of Cultures) and at the Mirzo Ulugbek National University (Tashkent). The presented program of studying classical Chinese culture is based on providing students with a systematic and holistic view of cultural synthesis in China as a sophisticated, bright intellectual, aesthetic and practical experience of harmonizing multidirectional spiritual principles, which allows to talk about the deep integrity of culture, its richness, its actualization potential, about the basis of religion and philosophy, about art, way of life, and mentality.

Full textAbstract:
Introduction. Concerto for oboe and orchestra in the music of modern time (20th – early 21st centuries), on the one hand, is based on the traditions of past eras, on the other hand, it contains a number of new stylistic trends, among which the leading trend is the pluralism of composer’s decisions. Despite this, the works created during this period by the composers of different national schools can be divided into three groups – academic, experimental, and pastoral. The article gives the review of them. Objective. The main objective of the article is to identify the features of genre stylistics in oboe concertos by composers of the 20th – early 21st centuries. Methods. In order to realize this objective, the elements of a number of general scientific and special musicological research methods have been used – historical-and-genetic, deductive, comparative, organological, stylistic, genre and performing analysis. Results and Discussion. The article discusses and systematizes the features of the genre stylistics of modern time oboe concertos. Based on the analysis of the historical-and-stylistic context, the correlation of traditions and innovations in the oboe-concerto genre, as well as the nature of the relationship between concerto and chamber manners as its common features are revealed. The classification of oboe concertos of the specified period by three genre-and-style groups – academic, experimental, and pastoral, is proposed. The main development trends in each of these groups are analyzed, taking into account the genre, national and individual-author’s stylistics (more than 70 pieces are involved). For the first time, the generalizations are proposed regarding the oboe expressiveness and techniques, generally gravitating towards universalism as a style dominant in the concerto genre. It is noted that, in spite of this main trend, the oboe in the concertos by modern time masters retains its fundamental organological semantics – the aesthetics and poetics of pastoral mode. The music of modern time, the count of which starts from the last decade of the 19th century and to present, comes, on the one hand, as a unique encyclopedia of the previous genres and styles, and on the other hand, as a unique multicomponent artistic phenomenon of hypertext meaning. The first is embodied in the concept of the style pluralism which means the priority of the person’s (composer’s and performer’s) component in aesthetics and poetics of a musical work. The second involves an aspect of polystylistics that is understood in two meanings: 1) aesthetic, when different stylistic tendencies are represented in a particular artistic style; 2) purely “technological”, which is understood as the technique of composing, when different intonation patterns in the form of style quotations and allusions (according to Alfred Schnittke) constitute the compositional basis of the same work. It is noted that the oboe concertos of the modern time masters revive the traditions of solo music-making, which were partially lost in the second half of the 19th century. At the new stage of evolution, since the early 20th century (1910s), the concerto oboe combines solo virtuosity with chamber manner, which is realized in a special way by the authors of different styles. Most of them (especially in the period up to the 1970s–1980s of the previous century) adhere to the academic model which is characterized by a three-part composition with a tempo ratio “fast – slow – fast” with typical structures of each of the parts – sonata in the first, complex three-part in the second, rondo-sonata in the third, as well as traditional, previously tried and used means of articulation and stroke set (concertos by W. Alvin, J. Horovitz – Great Britain; E. T. Zwillich, Ch. Rouse – USA; O. Respighi – Italy; Lars-Erik Larrson – Switzerland, etc.). The signs of the oboe concertos of the experimental group are the freedom of structure both in the overall composition and at the level of individual parts or sections, the use of non-traditional methods of playing (J. Widmann, D. Bortz – Germany; C. Frances-Hoad, P. Patterson – England; E. Carter – USA; J. MacMillan – Scotland; O. Navarro – Spain; N. Westlake – Australia). The group of pastoral concertos is based on highlighting the key semantics of oboe sound image. This group includes concertos of two types – non-programmatic (G. Jacob, R. Vaughan Williams, M. Arnold – Great Britain; О. T. Raihala – Finland; M. Berkeley, Е. Carter – USA and other authors); programmatic of two types – with literary names (L’horloge de flore J. Françaix – France; Helios, Two’s Company T. Musgrave; Angel of Mons J. Bingham – Great Britain); based on the themes of the world classics or folklore (two concertos by J. Barbirolli – Great Britain – on the themes of G. Pergolesi and A. Corelli; Concerto by B. Martinu – Czechia – on the themes from Petrushka by I. Stravinsky, etc.). This group of concertos also includes the genre derivatives, such as suite (L’horloge de flore J. Françaix); fantasy (Concerto fantasy for oboe, English horn and orchestra by V. Gorbulskis); virtuoso piece (Pascaglia concertante S. Veress); concertino (Concertino by N. Scalcottas, R. Kram, A. Jacques); genre “hybrids” (Symphony-Concerto by J. Ibert; Symphony-Concerto by T. Smirnova; Chuvash Symphony-Concerto by T. Alekseyeva; Concerto-Romance by Zh. Matallidi; Concerto-Poem for English horn, oboe and orchestra by G. Raman). Conclusions. Thus, the oboe concerto in the works by modern time composers appears as a complex genre-and-intonation fusion of traditions and innovations, in which prevail the individual-author’s approaches to reproducing the specificity of the genre. At the same time, through the general tendency of stylistic pluralism, several lines-trends emerge, defined in this article as academic, experimental, and pastoral, and each of them can be considered in more detail in the framework of individual studies.

Full textAbstract:
Critical Pedagogy is a philosophy and approach to education which has influenced theory and practice for almost 50 years, most recently in the fields of Applied Drama and performative pedagogy. However, what exactly is understood by Critical Pedagogy in the 21st century is unclear, and whether its roots still align with the ideas and practices of its progenitor Paulo Freire is uncertain. Therefore, this systematic review of literature aims to explore the interpretations of Critical Pedagogy presented in 100 peer-reviewed papers published in recent times. After identifying frequently emergent themes in the selected literature, which are associated with the work of Freire, this paper examines the degree of consensus around Critical Pedagogy’s transformative aim, its associated democratic classroom approaches, and the concepts of conscientization and praxis. Through this analysis, the review distinguishes a number of peripheral discussions that are related to a modern/postmodern debate within the literature. This paper concludes by asserting that there are more points of convergence than of divergence in the various interpretations of Critical Pedagogy available in the articles surveyed. We suggest that the current branching out of Critical Pedagogy has not been rendered devoid of core meanings as an educational tradition, one which holds considerable potential for the field of Applied Drama, and for other forms of performative education.

Full textAbstract:
Ethnopoetics involves in the conducting of translation experiments on oral poems of native ethnic groups, converting its relevant oral texts into written forms. The theory of ethnographic poetry begins in the 1970s and was translated and introduced to China in the early 21st century. However, most ethnic minorities in China do not have textual writings. Their oral creations from primitive society to modern society such as epics, long poems, narrative poems, ballads, and folk songs are mostly in form of oral poetry. The collection and translation of oral poems of ethnic minorities in China began in the late 1950s, that demarcated the beginning of ethnopoetics in China. In this article, the reasons behind the collection and translation of Chinese ethnic minority oral poems will be analysed. The restoration process of ethnopoetics and the connections between the collections and the translations, and the issues on whether translation is consistent to Chinese ethnic minority oral poems will also be further elaborated. The history of Chinese ethnic minorities oral poetry traces back to a long history and consists of a variety of themes and contents. Therefore, the restoration process of ethnopoetic research on the relationship between oral culture and written culture not only have gained the attention from the Chinese academic community, but also shown strong interests by the Western academic research community and worldwide.

Full textAbstract:
Nursing education has recently adopted challenge-based learning (CBL) to enhance nursing students’ competency in the 21st-century healthcare environment. Previous studies have not yet fully explored nursing students’ perceptions of CBL. This descriptive qualitative study aimed to investigate the learning experience of first-year baccalaureate nursing students engaging with CBL. Videotaped focus group interviews were conducted in a tertiary education institution in Hong Kong, China. The participants recruited for the study included ten Year 1 nursing students enrolled in a public health course delivered using CBL over the study period. The participants included four female and six male students. Five themes were identified: facilitation by teachers, familiarity with CBL, team communication, facilitating metacognitive development, and the application of theories into actual practices. The findings shed light on the potential application of CBL in nursing training as it can foster students’ metacognition, an important attribute for the modern-day workforce. Facilitating theoretical application into practice implies that CBL helps to fill the theory–practice gap that has long been a persistent issue in nursing training. Nonetheless, students encountered frustrating obstacles throughout the learning process, including ineffective group communication, unfamiliarity with the CBL process, and insufficient facilitation by teachers. Better preparation on the part of both teachers and students is critical to ensure that nursing students are gaining optimal benefits from the CBL process.

The modern state of the problem of forming the moral culture in humanistics is considered. The analysis of research of the 20th-21st centuries concerning the problem in such areas of science as philosophy, ethics, psychology, pedagogy is given. Natural ways to study the essence of moral culture in contemporary philosophy are found. It is revealed that the starting point for the philosophic analysis of moral culture in the mid-80s of the 20th century is the correlation of the freedom of society and freedom of personality. The role of moral culture in the system of human communication is found, that is most clearly expressed in the philosophical hermeneutics. The achievements in the study of contemporary issues of moral culture belonging to religious philosophy are outlined (works of H. Vashchenko, A. Vyshnevskyi, L. Moskaliova, I. Ohiienko, Ya. Yarema, etc.). The analysis of these problems is made in the works of the representatives of ethical thought, namely by L. Arkhanhelskii, V.Bibler, G. Vasianovych A. Guseinov, I. Ziaziun, L. Moskaliova, L. Horuzhy and others. It has been found that the psychological sphere representatives unanimously believe that the moral culture is an integrative social, personal, spiritual phenomenon that requires a fundamental methodological research, and the main requirement for such studies should be comprehensive, humanistic character, which is appropriate not only for the present but also for the future. The valuable researches of the 21st century in the sphere of moral culture in pedagogy are outlined. Particular attention is paid to theses studies that reveal the specific expression of moral culture in different spheres of an individual’s life.

In line with UNESCO's goal of enhancing quality and innovation through various enhancements to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education, the Malaysian Ministry of Education also places a premium on information enhancement through STEM education and the Malaysia Education Blueprint (MEB) 2013-2025. Design thinking is an essential component of STEM education in modern schooling. The significance of design thinking, particularly in STEM education, fosters creativity and innovation in problem-solving among students. The needs analysis research is the early phase of Design and Development Research (DDR). This study aims to determine the requirements for developing a Design Thinking Pedagogical Model for secondary school science teachers in Malaysia. The interview method was used to perform the qualitative research. Thus, semi-structured interviews with three science teachers were conducted to explore teachers' perspectives on the need to develop a Design Thinking Pedagogical Model. Purposive sampling was used to choose these experts, and they all matched the criterion. Thematic techniques such as verbatim transcription, coding, and themes were used to examine the interview data. The findings of this study indicate that researchers need to develop a Design Thinking Pedagogical Model of Science by a panel of expert teachers in teaching sciences in secondary schools. As such, the development of this Design Thinking Pedagogical Model will serve as a practical guide for teachers in terms of training and utilizing design in students and practicing the skills necessary for the 21st century through learning and facilitation.

Background/Context Given the challenging complexity of the modern principalship— including high-stakes testing, standards-based reform, increased accountability, and severe budget cuts—practitioners and scholars emphasize the urgency of supporting principals’ stress-relief and renewal. Purpose/Objective/Research Question/Focus of Study This nationwide study offers insights into how a group of principals renew themselves and prevent burnout, crucial for 21st-century school leaders. This article focuses on how 25 principals supported their own renewal and their yearning to engage in reflective practice with colleagues as a support to their own revitalization, growth, and learning. Research Design Eighty-nine hours of qualitative interviews with a diverse sample of 25 public and private (independent) and Catholic school principals who served in schools with varying levels of financial resources (i.e., high, medium, and low) were conducted, in addition to analyzing field notes and approximately 60 documents. Interviews for the encompassing research study—an investigation of developmentally based principal leadership practices employed to support adult learning—concerned a variety of topics, including principals’ practices for supporting teacher learning and how principals themselves supported their own renewal. Data Collection and Analysis All interviews were transcribed verbatim. Two researchers coded interviews, documents, and field notes for central concepts (theoretical and emic codes were employed). Thematic matrices were developed, and narrative summaries were created. A grounded theory approach was employed, and important literatures informed analysis. Matrices displayed confirming and disconfirming instances of themes, and two researchers conferred on alternative interpretations. Findings Findings reveal that these principals (1) employed a variety of strategies for self-renewal given the complex challenges of their leadership work in the 21st century and (2) expressed a desire for engaging in ongoing reflective practice with colleagues as a to support their own development, sustainability, and renewal. All also expressed that although they were fulfilled by their jobs, the scope seemed vast and overwhelming. Whether they served in high, low, or medium financial resource schools and whether they served in public, independent, or Catholic schools, they emphasized that they needed to develop more effective and frequent strategies for self-renewal. Conclusions/Recommendations These school leaders explained that they yearn for regular, ongoing opportunities to reflect with colleagues and fellow principals on the challenges of leadership, emphasizing that this type of ongoing collegial reflection would help them to more effectively exercise leadership, avoid burnout, and renew themselves. Although all these principals spontaneously voiced the desire to engage in collegial reflection, only 3 were doing so on a regular basis. This research suggests the importance of supporting and retaining principals by using reflection and collegial support for renewal, with serious implications for education policy and school district practices.

Full textAbstract:
The essay presents an overview of Jewish American prose of the second half of the 20th — first two decades of the 21st century within the context of multicultural literature of the USA. The definition of Jewish literature remains a matter of debate. The author of the essay based on the opinions of critics concludes on the criterion for assigning a writer to Jewish literature. It is the artistic embodiment of the personal Jewish experience and identity in the works of literature, the view “from inside,” the perspective of collective memory and the connection to history and culture. Jewish literature today is one of the most developed ethnic segments of multicultural American literature. Writers under study are recognized throughout the world, their works have been translated into many languages, including Russian, they are known to readers and have already become the subject of study by literary scholars. Today, Jewish American literature is represented by two generations of writers. “Senior” generation includes the authors born in the 1920s–30s who began their literary careers in the 60s when there was a generational change in national literature. “Young” generation is represented by the writers who began their literary careers in the 2000s. On the example of the works of the most famous authors of both generations, the author of the essay talks about the factors determining the specific features of Jewish American prose and its characteristic themes, problems, and motives: the search for identity and roots, the representation and rethinking of the Holocaust, ethnic stereotypes, the image of the Jewish family, and the traditions of Jewish humor. The study of the works of modern Jewish writers in the United States allows us to draw conclusions about the display of border consciousness, national and ethnic identity, and collective memory in fiction.

Full textAbstract:
The turn of the 20th–21st centuries is characterized by highly intensive processes of national self-identification. An important role in this process is played by fantasy as a popular genre of popular literature. The study of Kazakh fantasy is of academic interest due to its popularity with readers, the dynamic transformation of the genre structure. The article demonstrates a wide genre spectrum of Kazakh fantasy books and their authors. In the novel Resurrecting Legends Timur Yermashev turns to the heroic page in the history of the Kazakhs – the Orbulak battle of the 17th century. Ilyaz Nurgaliyev consistently works with national myths and folklore images of the Turkic peoples. Azamat Baigaliev and Kira Nurullina write about aliens. Sabyr Kairkhanov in the format of urban fantasy (the novel Synchro) raises the question of the ambiguous role of the Semipalatinsk test site in the life of the Kazakhs. An example of the combination of children’s and adventure fantasy is the novel by Zira Naurzbayeva and Lily Kalaus In Search of the Golden Bowl: The Adventures of Batu and His Friends. Particularly popular are fantasy texts with plots based on the facts of national history, those resurrecting the heroes of Kazakhstani mythology, national traditions and customs. The themes and poetics of Kazakh fantasy are in line with the processes developing in modern prose, the nature of the transformation of the genre correlates with the changing readership. Fantasy readers are mainly representatives of a certain social and age group, those attracted by the topical issues raised – the growth of national self-consciousness – combined with an exciting adventurous plot. The entertaining genre of popular literature has taken on an important ideological function – to promote and shape the national identity of the Kazakhs in a situation of geopolitical changes.

Full textAbstract:
The article expresses a hypothesis about the need to search for criteria for describing the latest literary process. An assessment of the literary history of Germany after 1945 shows that the situation of the turning point (1990s), which divided the post-war and after the post-war literature, at the beginning of the 21st century, began to transform into something else, to the description of which the
approaches have to be determined.
In the context of human civilization entering into the era of a new understanding of oneself in general and of the individual in particular, retrospective use of the terms «literary direction», «style» or «literary period» does not work. As a possible way, the author of the article proposes a value approach, as one of
the criteria – an appeal to the Christian component of modern texts. Thus, fiction
is understood as a sensitive seismograph reflecting the spiritual quest and de-
mands of the society in the era of civilizational transformations.
Highlighting key value characteristics in literary texts allows us to show
the search for a way out of postmodern indifference to the world, the change in
the playful ambivalence of creativity by the expression of the author’s unambigu-
ous moral position. Comparison of individual works of E. Heidenreich, D. Dörrie, B. Schlink, W. Hilbig, T. Dückers, J. Winkler, S. Lewicharoff, using the theses of K. Jaspers and J. Habermas helps us to represent the actual significance of the stated criterion for describing a modern literary history.

. The review deals with the problem of Orthodox fundamentalism in the discussion of Englishspeaking authors of different denominations, representatives of canonical and non-canonical Orthodox churches, which took place in theological discussions, in journalism and at scientific conferences mainly in recent years. The main materials are first introduced into the scientific circulation in Russian. The concepts of fundamentalism in Orthodoxy in the foreign press are presented; the definitions of Orthodox fundamentalism, the main theses of opponents and their argumentation are given. Frequently, the word “fundamentalism” in relation to Orthodoxy is used as a banal nickname for those opponents who have traditional or conservative beliefs, are prone to “ritualism”, shows intolerance and lack of readiness for dialogue, including ecumenical. However, since the beginning of the 21st century, theologians, priests and scholars have been trying to give a stricter definition of such fundamentalism as a phenomenon of the modern era, especially in its demise. It is primarily about the attitude to the works of the holy fathers of the Church. It is expressed, in particular, the opinion that the veneration of patristic writings, along with the resolutions of the Councils (which constitutes the Holy Tradition) should be revised. However, the concept of “Orthodox fundamentalism”, as follows from the given review, has not yet been formed. But one can speak of such signs of it, connected, in particular, with a wide exit to the public sphere of mass consciousness, as the striving to minimize theological provisions, absolutization of some provisions of dogma to the detriment of others, and the logos (modern) reading of the myth.

Le but principal de cet article est de montrer les principaux problèmes de la lexicologie moderne aussi que d’améliorer l’enseignement de la lexicologie comme cours universitaire en tenant compte de nouvelles théories apparues à la fin du XXe siècle. L’enseignement moderne exige l’introduction de nouveaux termes comme éponymie, énantiosémie, méronymie, etc., et la révision des théories et des thèmes dits classiques comme polysémie, évolution sémantique, formation du mot, emprunt. L’auteur se propose de montrer le développement des théories et des approches lexicales au cours des XXe et XXIe siècles. On estime qu’il faut fournir aux étudiants des renseignements sur les nouvelles orientations et les différentes méthodes existant dans la linguistique contemporaine, avant tout sémiotiques, cognitives, discursives, contrastives, même si elles sont présentées sous diverses versions parfois contradictoires. En même temps, une consultation des manuels de lexicologie montre que plusieurs phénomènes connus restent en marge de leurs études, il s’agit avant tout du calque, du mot international, de l’occasionnalisme, de l’archaïsme sémantique, etc. Donc, l’emploi et la définition corrects du terme, la précision de ses particularités au sein de son paradigme sont indispensables pour l’étude lexicologique contemporaine.

The main aim of this paper is to show major problems of modern lexicology as well as to improve the teaching of lexicology at the university by taking into account new theories that appeared at the end of the 20th century. Modern education requires the introduction of new terminology such as eponymy, enantiosemy, meronymy, etc., and the revision of the so-called classical theories and themes such as polysemy, semantic evolution, word formation or borrowing. It is also essential to introduce several topics and approaches including, above all, field theory, connotation theory, the problem of the concept, cognitive semantics, prototype theory and stereotype theory, linguistic and cultural aspects, semantic universals, etc.
We seek to identify the main problems posed by the study of French vocabulary, to show the development of theories and lexical approaches during the 20th and the 21st centuries. It is thought that students should be provided with information on the new orientations and methods existing in contemporary linguistics, primarily semiotic, cognitive, discursive and contrastive, even if presented in different or even contradictory versions.
At the same time, an overview of lexicology textbooks shows that several rather well-known phenomena remain on the margins of study; these include calques, international words, occasionalisms, semantic archaisms, etc. Therefore, adequate definitions of terms and their use, precise identification of their peculiarities within relevant paradigms in contemporary studies of lexicology are indispensable.
Key words: lexicology; French; teaching; approach; theory of the word.

After a temporary decline in research interest in the history of the Russian working class and its regional groups in the 1990s, it was revived at the beginning of the 21st century, primarily in those aspects that were previously on the periphery of the scientific space or were controversial. The Urals historians M. A. Feldman and S. P. Postnikov, whose works are rightly considered a major achievement of modern Ural historiography, made a great contribution to their study. At the same time, a number of scientists’ theses, in our opinion, need adjustment and additional substantiation. This article is dedicated to solving this problem. The provisions on the absence of social and class unity of the mining workers of the Urals and the political split between its individual categories, the definition of political views of workers of the industrial era, to which the authors class workers of the industry, as reformist, and other issues (more private ones) were subjected to consideration and critical assessment. As a result of the analysis, it was concluded that the existing differences between certain categories of Ural workers are not the basis for denying the unity of their socio-cultural and mental space, typical of all methods of social reflection and general behavior patterns. This indicates a need for further study of this issue.

The article deals with the thematicism and thematic work in the first movement of Mozart’s Piano Sonata KV 311/284c (1777). The analysis of thematical process in this instrumental composition is examined under the angle of correlation between the contemporary and historical approaches: 1. the correspondence of the music theory concepts that were part of the lexicon of Wolfgang Amadeus and Leopold Mozarts (Ideen, il filo), with a complex of musical-analytical terms of our time, formed both in line with the historically informed theory, and in the context of the general theory of musical composition and form; 2. the comparison of research methods of the musical-thematic plan in the English-language and Russian musicology of the last half century. Sonata KV311/284c does not pertain to the number of Mozart’s compositions that have already been studied earlier from the point of view of the theory of topoi, which makes its analysis of additional interest. The article defines the topoi in the first Allegro, demonstrates their distribution in the sonata form, traces the logic of motivic and thematic transformations. The similarity of the “plotline”, which is formed from the relationship of the elements of the musical text (tonal, harmonic, melodic, textural, dynamic, etc.), began to be examined in musicology during the last third of the 20th and the early 21st centuries through the prism of the concept of narrative analysis. Such a plotline in Mozart’s sonata unfolds on two levels. The first is the typical for the sonata form “deducibility” of all themes from the main theme, that is, a certain “obligatory tonefabula” of the sonata composition (a term by Rostislav Berberov). The second level is the presence of an individual “intonation fabula” (a term by Inna Barsova), which is realized through the correlation of motives. In this plot, the archetypal narrative of comedy described by Almén (Byron Almén, 2003, 2008) gets its original embodiment. Thus, when considering the works of Mozart, both narratological analysis and the identification of a “common” classical musical language have significant prospects. At the same time, the relationship between the concepts that have been brought into scholarly use in our time and the concepts that have come from the 18th century is by no means unambiguous. The modern terms “narrative” and “topos” primarily define typological models, while the terms taken from the personal communication of Wolfgang and Leopold Mozarts fix individual of such models specific compositions.

Attention to the western reception of Eastern Europe has been relevant for several centuries, but it is especially characteristic of the turn of the 21st century. The inertia of the Cold War is still felt in popular culture: evil is essentialized in the images of Russia/Eastern Europe and Russians/Eastern Europeans every time. Another tradition prefers to create the image of a Russian relying on the harmless, inactive characters of Russian fairy tales and novels, such as Emelya and Oblomov. Russia itself is often not named or portrayed in films and texts; it is replaced by Eastern Europe, Siberia, and fictional cities. The article highlights the main characteristics of the Eastern European text according to Larry Wolff: remoteness, coldness, savagery, passionateness, ambivalence, theatricality, frightening suspense. Eastern European images by the contemporary American writer Donna Tartt (Boris Pavlikovsky and other Slavs in her novel The Goldfinch) are compared with the interpretation of such images in the popular culture and by the writers of the 20th century (in William Somerset Maugham’s novel The Razor’s Edge). In Tartt’s novel, we encounter heroes who are not just interested in Russia and Russians/Eastern Europeans, but are literally fascinated by them, trying to learn the language, study Russian literature. It has been suggested that Fyodor Dolokhov from Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace, one of the key novels in the world literary tradition, could be the prototype for a significant number of Eastern European images. This ambivalent image combines all the main characteristics of the Eastern European text and allows both negative (most often) and positive (with careful consideration of the plots and characteristics) interpretations. For example, coldness, winter, blizzard can be considered as negative characteristics (especially considering some connotations), but, in the classic novel, which is also oriented towards Dickens, they are naturally connected with the Christmas theme of the miraculous elimination of contradictions, the fabulous resolution of all problems, and transformation. Therefore, it is not surprising that the “code” of the character is repeated, from name to separate themes and motifs. The characteristics Wolff lists – robbery, philosophizing, masquerading, duality – generate both repulsion and attraction. It is possible that the positive perception of Eastern Europe is rooted in the approach to the theme through the prism of literature and literary criticism. Tartt as a philologist is expectedly more influenced by modern literary theory inspired by the formalists, Propp, Bakhtin, Jakobson, and Lotman, than by political clichés.

The modern children grow and develop in an extremely dynamic environment. They are surrounded by a variety of information and many digital devices. The ways of processing and using knowledge, as well as the formation of specific skills, are based on the child's personal experiences and social contacts. The community responsible for the development and upbringing of the growing generation - parents, school, kindergarten, educational institutions - are confronted with the complex task of preparing children for their lives in the future. The dynamic with which all spheres of social life are developing makes it difficult to predict how to educate children today so they will be ready for the life that awaits them. Traditional learning, which has proven its importance, needs to build on so-called 21st century skills - communication skills, critical thinking, collaboration, digital literacy. It is necessary to identify important and up-to-date knowledge and skills that should be proposed to children in their current cognitive activities. Contextual competencies or so-called "soft skills" are part of the key competences for human success at every stage of its development. Under soft skills, we understand competences for: communication, tolerance, tolerance, mutual assistance, empathy, teamwork, leadership, negotiation, decision making, creativity, etc. The formation of these important personality skills starts at an early age and key factors are the family, community, educational and social institutions with which the child interacts. The modern society based on technology and information forms a digital generation of children. Technologies offer and support communication and team interaction models. To protect the teenage generation from the dangers of technology - cyber-dependence, isolation, and associal behavior - a variety of cognitive and training patterns need to be applied to seek balance between tradition, modernity and the future. Educators who work with children are directly involved in the process of their preparation for their future lives. This fact determines the importance of the professional training of future teachers. They have to be prepared to bring out the most important theoretical and methodological themes and to present them to the children in an interesting and entertaining way. This article proposes a model for the organization of cognitive mathematical activities for children from a preschool age (5-7 years), in which soft skills such as critical thinking, knowledge transfer, creativity, etc. are being developed. An interdisciplinary approach is underpinned in the model. The proposed methodological solutions are derived from work in the 2018/19 school year with students who are taught for kindergarten and elementary school teachers.

Abstract The health professions in the German-speaking region of Germany, Austria and Switzerland, the so-called D-A-CH area, are in dynamic phases of their professionalization due to their shift towards education at universities. In addition, the needs of current and future health care require all health professionals (HPs) to have collaborative competencies and a willingness to work together. This willingness and the challenge of co-creation of health systems by all health professionals is a good starting point for the evolution of the professions. So what must professional profiles, role beliefs - in short, modern professionalization strategies - be like so that, at the beginning of the 21st century, education and professional practice do not remain stuck in old thought structures and templates and in monodisciplinary „silo thinking.” What does it mean in concrete terms for the professionalization of professions that health care professions must (be able to) increasingly work together? Doesn’t professionalization so far tend to mean exclusivity and isn’t a stronger demarcation between the professions then the consequence? Against the background of professionalization through academization, do university studies not tend to aim at a stronger demarcation from other disciplines and professions? Professionalization includes exclusive competencies and specialized methods against the background of one's own profession-related action sciences. At the three-country meeting of the VFWG in Bern on 5–6 May 2022, this area of tension was put up for discussion in a World Café based on four theses. The following article documents the results of the individual discussion rounds and aims to stimulate a critical discourse

Full textAbstract:
The article is dedicated to the history of migritude, a phenomenon that arose among the African intellectual emigration at the beginning of the 21st century. Its origin is associated with the name of the Kenyan writer of Indian origin Shailja Patel, the author of poetical show (2006) and the poem under the title “Migritude” (2010). As a result, a literary movement of the same name was formed, the bias of which is connected, on the one hand, with the renewal of the format of post-colonial narratives and their themes, and, on the other hand, with the tectonic changes that have taken place on the world stage in the context of globalization. The author of the article focuses on the ego-story of Shailja Patel and its transformation, primarily due to content, into the history of an entire generation living in the era, which coincided in time with the situations of postcoloniality and postmodernity. Addressing the issues of colonialism and post-colonialism, racism, segregation and migration is not new. Eventually women joined the discussion and set themselves the task of answering the question posed by Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak in her essay “Can Subaltern Speak?” They radically changed the range of topics proposed for discussion by addressing the ideas of gender equality and the fight against stereotypes, focusing on the problems of social and professional identity without regard to ethnicity and race. The article identifies a number of the most famous authors of migritude (Fatou Diome, Christina Ali Farah, Igiaba Scego, researchers of their works Augusta Irele and Ashna Ali, etc.) and the topics they refer to. Particular emphasis is placed on their interpretation of the problem of identity in the context of the strategy of interculturalism in conjunction with the processes of globalization, liberalization, democratization and digitalization. The author comes to the conclusion that in recent years the discursive field of migritude has been forming with its own borders (within the Diaspora) and practices (primarily adaptative), terminology, intellectual and social communities, activists and sympathizers. In conditions when migration has become a marker of the modern world order migritude has become a norm for them as an opportunity to realize a number of their most important intentions, including self-realization, obtaining a profession, and achieving success.

Full textAbstract:
The article considers the problems of cognitive convergence of communication and media studies within the system of values and moral imperatives of Ukrainian identity. The themes «communicative code» and «cultural consumption», presented in the works of historian N. Yakovenko and philosopher J. Habermas, are intellectual meanings. They served as theoretical markers upon which the further research draws. N. Yakovenko defined the communicative code and its connection with cultural memory. She believes that the media play a leading role in the emergence of communication codes today. Habermas’s living philosophy interprets topical issues of journalism and communication. His philosophical paradigm is close to the tasks solved by media and communication. The study’s aim is to show how the intellectual meanings generated by historians, philosophers, and writers in synergy with journalism and communication studies are further updated, while considering modern media discourse. The tasks arising from the outlined aim have been solved through the interpretation of the synergistic circles of J. Habermas, D. McQuail, N. Yakovenko, V. Kulyk, and G. Pocheptsov. Their theoretical reflections and media handlings and communication constructs of complex cultural projects, restoring the national identity. In this study a method of comparative analysis was used for tracing communicative ideas, their theoretical formation and manifestation in media texts. The method of generalization was used for conclusions. The newspaper «Day», the online newspaper «Ukrayinska Pravda», the magazine «The Ukrainian Week» and its online version among Ukrainian media most often appeal to the philosophers and philosophy. From our point of view J. Habermas warns in his scientific conclusions’ successors from mistakes in the development of civil society, which will be formed in the innovative digital environment. Our conclusion will be following: for a high-quality training of specialists in journalism and communication, it is necessary to deepen their intellectual potential. The creation of a new universal learning platform for students who have chosen journalism and social communications should be based on knowledge of politics and morality, on the ability to form the worldview assessments. This is a response to the challenge of time: to join the formation of a new type of elite, the demand for which dominates in Ukrainian society at the beginning of the 21st century.

Full textAbstract:
In a rather complicated manner, Max Weber’s writings contain general theoretical reflections that are now incorporated in the canon of sociological theory, in the analyses of social change in the form of historical and comparative sociology, and in reflections on political events, all in the guise of the diagnosis and critique of his own historical age. This article attempts to draw conclusions from the tensions between these aspects in Weber’s work by trying to discover how such a sophisticated combination of cognitive goals is possible today, and what limits it encounters. What the “light of great cultural problems” falls upon, what elements of the past determine the present, and what events are particularly important for understanding of a certain age are questions whose answers must regularly be sought anew. The author relies on the concept of “modernity”, or rather, on the field of interpretation arising around this term. He assumes that the given field is wide enough to better understand our present condition by means of this term. In the meantime, the author believes that for this understanding to be successful, present-day modernity must be appropriately positioned in this field theoretically, historically, and as the diagnosis of our age.

Full textAbstract:
The problem of self-organization of self in the context of uncertainty arises in connection with the development of projects and programs of transformational education for adults, the need of which is due to the deep processes of global transformations in the modern world.
Transformative strategies and programs for the development of the content of higher education, outlined in the list of key educational competencies for the 21st century by international organizations (EU, UNESCO) are associated with the processes of becoming and transformation of individuals as integral subjects of cognition and action within the framework of communicative strategies for the formation of a global civil society.
The development and implementation of transformative higher education strategies in a content aspect requires transdisciplinary research methodologies for adult learning aimed at developing a “holistic person” and his self as a source of creative development.
The first part of the article is devoted to the analysis of the evolution of views on self in the metaphysical tradition, which was mainly concentrated around the binary-opposition systems of argumentation, presented, on the one hand, by the Cartesian philosophy of self as substances, on the other - the Hume's vision of self as a bundle of perceptions. The dynamics of the argumentation of these metaphysical contrapositions, which immanently contain both the centrifugal intentions of discourse, and are mutually attractive, is considered. The substantive theses of these philosophies, which marked the development and branching of the general tendencies in the study of self and which can serve as a methodological complementary ground in our efforts to overcome binarism in the study of self in the context of post-metaphysical queries, are analyzed. The relevance of transversal self in the context of uncertainty as a process-dialogic unity of differences in the liminal space at the global and individual levels is determined.
