Background and study aim. Prerequisites and purpose of the study. Today, philosophical anthropology (in the context of physical culture) occupies an intermediate place between the biological sciences and existential philosophy, elements of which it uses to explain the problems of physical existence. In the deep spheres of the physical state of a man (in the continuum of his/her spiritual-moral, physical, subconscious-rational, irrational and anthrobiological subjectivity) one can find the true foundations of personal physical culture and give them an immanent-subjective expression of human strength (as a creator of culture globalized world). The purpose of the study is to characterize the physical culture of the individual in the context of philosophical anthropology.
Material and methods. Sources of information were the authoritative database Web of Science Core Collection, Vernadskyi National Library of Ukraine. Extraction of data from documents was carried out by means of a search query. In total, data on 102 documents containing such keywords as philosophy, anthropology, physical culture, sport were removed from the Web of Science Core Collection. Accordingly, 18 documents were found in the catalogues of the Vernadskyi National Library of Ukraine. Further analysis was performed with these 120 documents. The results of the search query were recorded in the form of tables and a special text file, which was processed in VOSviewer. The requirements of dialectical logic, comparative method, method of phenomenological reduction, hermeneutic methods are chosen by research methods.
Results. The most significant and popular thematic categories, journals, authors, articles, keywords are identified. The connection between the elements of bibliographic description of articles and individual groups of publications has been established. It is established that from the second quarter of the XX century among philosophers there is opposition to the understanding of human nature on the basis of the acceptance of some one of its essence (spiritual, physical, intellectual, emotional and volitional, etc.), which determines the existence of any person. This was a denial of the approach to a man, which was called essential (from the Latin essentia – essence). The result of this transformation was to establish an existential understanding of a man (from the Latin existentia - existence). However, a self-contained existential approach is capable of producing a worldview distortion of personal physical culture, especially in conditions of restriction of freedom (for example, during a pandemic, war). Therefore, in modern philosophical anthropology it is necessary to adhere to a balanced combination of essential and existential understanding of a man in general and his/her physical culture in particular. In this way, philosophical anthropology is able to actualize various structures of worldview, including the values of physical culture.
Conclusions. From the point of view of modern philosophical anthropology, athletes, in the broadest sense of the term (all those who purposefully engage in physical and sports exercises), are carriers of a set of socio-cultural values (moral and volitional qualities, morpho-functional properties, psychophysical abilities, etc.). These values, in the context of the globalization of civilizational development and the main axiological concepts (quality and standard of living, social order, well-being), should be considered as a means of activating planetary socio-cultural development.

Tras un análisis de los estudios publicados, encontramos una evolución teórica de los conceptos de motricidad y psicomotricidad, hacia un término nuevo como es la neuromotricidad. Este innovador enfoque de la acción motora recoge las funciones cerebrales implicadas en el movimiento, sobre todo las funciones cognitivas y las funciones ejecutivas. La neuromotricidad como disciplina con cuerpo propio y evolucionado de la psicomotricidad, plantea una serie de ejercicios novedosos en los que la doble tarea es una de sus características. El método BAPNE (con más de cuarenta publicaciones indexadas en web of Science), propone recursos completamente diferentes a la psicomotricidad, en los que el lenguaje y la doble tarea están siempre presentes dentro de su programa de alfabetización motora. La metodología basada en el planteamiento de retos de coordinación para nuestro cuerpo y de resolución de problemas para nuestro cerebro puede ser aplicada de manera interdisciplinar mezclando materias como las ciencias de la actividad física y el deporte, la música y el aprendizaje de una nueva lengua, etc. Todo ello mediante actividades de movimiento estimuladoras y de complejidad creciente para nuestro cerebro. Por este motivo, el objetivo de este artículo es proponer actividades prácticas de carácter interdisciplinar para su aplicación en el aula. Palabras clave: Neuromotricidad, psicomotricidad, motricidad, BAPNE, funciones ejecutivas, aprendizaje motor. Abstract. After an analysis of published studies, we find a theoretical evolution of the concepts of motor and psychomotor skills towards a new term such as neuromotricity. This innovative approach to motor action includes the brain functions involved in movement, especially cognitive and executive functions. Neuromotricity as a discipline with its own body and evolved from psychomotricity, proposes a series of novel exercises in which the dual task is one of its characteristics. The BAPNE method (with more than forty publications indexed in the Web of Science), proposes resources completely different from psychomotor skills, in which language and dual tasks are always present within its physical literacy program. The methodology based on the approach of coordination challenges for our body and problem solving for our brain can be applied in an interdisciplinary way mixing subjects such as physical activity sciences and sports, music and learning a new language, etc. All this through stimulating movement activities of increasing complexity for our brain. For this reason, the aim of this article is to propose practical interdisciplinary activities to be applied in the classroom. Keywords: Neuromotricity, psychomotricity, motor skills, BAPNE, executive functions, motor learning.

Full textAbstract:
This paper assumes that the literary work of art is a "stratified system of norms", and that the description of each stratum may require a different kind of logic. One of the main problems is the meaningful integration of these descriptions. A speech sound may be described on an acoustic, a phonetic and a phonemic level; normally, its acoustic description is irrelevant to its linguistic or poetic significance. However, in certain circumstances, the acoustic description may account for the emotional quality of the speech sound, may yield insight into the rhythmic structure of a poem (or just of a performance thereof), etc. Furthermore, pieces of poetry may be used to illustrate psychological theories about the aesthetic event; or psychological theories may be used to yield insight into the aesthetic nature of pieces of poetry. The paper focuses on the methodological issues involved in foregrounding the possible aesthetic significance of the transitions from one level of description to another. In doing this, it attempts to carefully navigate between two theoretical extremes: a reductionist view of literary theory according to which all the "special sciences " can be reduced to "more basic sciences" and, eventually, to physics; and the one formulated by Wellek and Warren (1956:135) as follows: "The psychology of the reader, however interesting in itself and useful for pedagogical purposes, will always remain outside the object of literary study [...] it must be unrelated either to the structure or the quality of a poem ". The middle course here proposed relies on "the principle of marginal control", that is, "the control exercised by the organizational principle of a higher level on the particulars forming its lower level" (Polânyi, 1967: 40). Paraphrasing Polânyi, the principles of literature may be said to govern the boundary conditions of a cognitive system—a set of conditions that is explicitly left undetermined by the laws of lower processes — physical, cognitive, and linguistic. If one knows more about these "lower" processes, one may get a better understanding of the principles of literature that govern those boundary conditions. It is claimed that in this way Cognitive Poetics is capable of discerning and explaining significant literary phenomena which present insurmountable difficulties to other approaches.

Full textAbstract:
Training and education in physical education lessons is a complex, multifaceted process, the effectiveness of which depends not only on what the teacher himself knows and can do, but also on how he transfers knowledge and skills to students. Pedagogical activity is a continuous solution of pedagogical problems. A special feature of the working conditions of a physical education teacher is the need to demonstrate physical exercises and insure students when they perform physical exercises, as well as to move with students during outdoor exercises, on hikes, etc. The effectiveness of a coach depends on many factors: economic, social, scientific, organizational, etc. The indicator of a coach’s effectiveness is the successful achievement of a goal with the most rational use of forces and means, which presupposes that the structure and functioning of the coach’s psyche corresponds to the structure and dynamics of his activities.

The purpose of the study was to consider the main methods of increasing the physical activity of people with disabilities (in wheelchairs) in emergency situations, military conflicts, natural disasters, etc. Materials and methods. The study of physical rehabilitation of people with disabilities (in wheelchairs) was conducted by the author during many years working as a trainer of the Kyiv Regional Center for Physical Culture and Sports for the Disabled “Invasport” and continued during the military actions in the country in 2022–2023 with an emphasis on the problems of rehabilitation of patients in military and emergency conditions. In order to increase the physical activity of people with disabilities (in wheelchairs) in conditions limited by military operations, it is recommended to pay special attention to exercises for the muscles of the neck, joints, and muscles of upper limbs; exercises for the lower limbs and pelvic organs; exercises for back and trunk muscles; balance exercises, breathing exercises, etc. Massage and self-massage procedures will also be useful in such situations. Results and discussion. The effectiveness of rehabilitation and, as a result, the successful outcome of maintaining the physical activity of people with spinal injuries and disabilities largely depends on the early start and correct selection of rehabilitation programs. In addition, the choice of methods and means of physical rehabilitation and physical activity for people with disabilities in the limited military and emergency conditions depends on their general physical and mental condition, the presence of accompanying diseases and complications, as well as on the surrounding circumstances. However, regardless of the difficulties and surrounding circumstances, people with disabilities (in a wheelchair) or with an injury and spine diseases must be engaged in physical therapy and do physical exercises in order not to lose the physical capacity for action, even limited, to be able to adapt to the circumstances and mobilize functional reserves of their bodies. Conclusion. Comprehensive rehabilitation is an integral part of therapy for patients with spinal injuries, people with disabilities (in wheelchairs), etc. Physical exercises not only affect the development of the motor activity of people with disabilities but also increase the body's resistance to adverse environmental factors, activating vegetative systems, stimulating and normalizing functions of body systems. The gradual adaptation of the body to physical exertion leads to adaptation, mobilization and use of the body's functional reserves. Physical training itself is an adaptation process that activates the body's hidden reserves

Abstract:Health problems in children are quite varied. Obesity, hygiene and dental health, snack foods, washing hands with soap etc is evidence that health promotion in childhood is needed. Health promotion programs aims to implement individual health behavior and persuade people to abandon unhealthy habits, and it often takes an effort to modify ones health belief. Some methods in health promotion include 1) fear arousing, 2) the provision of information and 3) behavioral methods. Although the primary responsibility of schools is to educate children in the academic field, but school participation in promoting healthy life skills in children, such as physical activity and eating behaviors is known to be quite effective. The implementation of health promotion for children is conducted through PHBS (Clean and Healthy Behavior). The indicators PHBS in school are: 1) Washing hands with soap, 2) Eating healthy snacks, 3) Using clean toilets, 4) Exercise regularly and measured, 5) reducing mosquito larvae, 6) not smoking in school, 7) Considering the weight and height measured every month and 8) Disposing of waste in place. Some PHBS indicators above are health problems in children and can be addressed through health promotion activities. For effective health promotion program activities, implemented strategy such as the selection of media as a tool for health promotion activities as well as the delivery of content strategy in health promotion activities is needed.Key words : Childhood Health Promotion, health promotion methodes, PHBS, PHBS indicatorsAbstrak:Masalah kesehatan pada anak cukup bervariasi.

Program-program dalam promosi kesehatan bertujuan agar individu menerapkan perilaku sehat serta mempersuasi individu agar meninggalkan kebiasaan tidak sehat (unhealthful habits) yang selama ini dijalaninya, dan hal ini seringkali membutuhkan upaya memodifikasi keyakinan-keyakinan sehat (health beliefs). Beberapa metode dalam promosi kesehatan mencakup 1) fear arousing, 2) penyediaan informasi dan 3) metode perilaku. Meskipun tanggung jawab utama sekolah adalah untuk mendidik anak dalam bidang akademik, namun partisipasi sekolah dalam mempromosikan keterampilan hidup sehat pada anak-anak, seperti aktivitas fisik dan perilaku makan diketahui cukup efektif. Pelaksanaan promosi kesehatan untuk anak di sekolah dilakukan melalui kegiatan PHBS (Perilaku Hidup Bersih dan Sehat). Adapun indikator PHBS di sekolah adalah : 1) Mencuci tangan memakai sabun, 2) Mengkonsumsi jajanan sehat, 3) Menggunakan jamban yang bersih dan sehat, 4) Olahraga yang teratur dan terukur, 5) Memberantas jentik nyamuk, 6) Tidak merokok di sekolah, 7) Menimbang berat badan dan mengukur tinggi badan setiap bulan dan 8) Membuang sampah pada tempatnya. Beberapa indikator PHBS diatas merupakan masalah kesehatan yang ada pada anak-anak dan dapat diatasi melalui kegiatan promosi kesehatan. Agar kegiatan program promosi kesehatan efektif perlu dibuat suatu strategi dalam pelaksanaanya seperti pemilihan media sebagai alat bantu kegiatan promosi kesehatan serta strategi penyampaian materi dalam kegiatan promosi kesehatan.Kata kunci : Childhood Health Promotion, metode promosi kesehatan, PHBS, indikator PHBS

Military personnel are in high-risk group for health disorders, musculoskeletal pathology and psychological overload. We provide evaluation of the anthropometric parameters and health status of military personnel, Cadets, who have participated in ten days duration Combat training course. Combat training course is associated with life-style change – social, environmental, climate and geographical conditions, biorhythms, nutrition etc., with an increase in physical and psych emotional loads. It is characterized with transition from daily routine of military study process in National Defence academy to military exercise in external environment. Cadets faced to feeding limitation, sleeping deprivation intensive and continuous training, strict discipline etc. We provided analysis of anthropometric parameters before, and in time of Combat training course, summarized data of health statement and health problems that were fixed in the medical cards. The proper body mass supports good health capacity and we provided assessment of it. Physical fitness and body composition have adverse effect on military performance. Body composition undergoes changes during higher physical load performance. Military personnel have high risk to health, concerning impact of external and internal factors. According the review of medical cards of cadets group, we indicated main problems, which are fixed after the Combat training course.

Full textAbstract:
This research is concerned with the nature and extent of problems experienced by detectives in the collection, processing and utilisation of crime information for the investigation of crime. The problems gave rise to poor detective performance.
The development of information-led policing offers an alternative to the traditional ”reactive” model of investigation of crime. Information-led policing advocates the targeting, gathering, analysis and dissemination of information which is used to inform decisions about the prioritisation of problems and allocation of resources to address the problems (Cope, as quoted by Alison, 2005:93).
The purpose of this study is to determine the strengths and weaknesses in the collection, processing and utilisation of crime information at the Rustenburg Detective Service, to find new knowledge that can improve the situation, and to apply the found knowledge to enhance the performance of detectives.Criminology

Balance problems after concussion can be episodic or persistent. Episodic balance impairment due to intoxication by medications/alcohol/or other drugs can be treated by stopping the offending substance. Episodic balance impairment due to concussion-related benign paroxysmal positional vertigo can be treated with repositioning maneuvers. Assess for this using the Dix-Hallpike maneuvers. Episodic balance impairment due to migraine aura (even without actual headache) can be treated with migraine abortive medications and/or prophylactics. For persistent balance impairments, assess balance using the Balance Error Scoring System or Berg Balance Test. Advise patients to stop drinking alcohol, or to cut down to a maximum of 1 alcoholic drink in any 24-hour period, and, if possible, to stop medications that impair balance. Consider referral to physical therapy for balance training. Consider prescribing additional self-directed balance exercises such as tai chi, yoga, dance, etc. Emphasize that balance training is also part of preventing future concussions.

Soft computing represents that area of computing adapted from the physical sciences. Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques within this realm attempt to solve problems by applying physical laws and processes. This style of computing is particularly tolerant of imprecision and uncertainty, making the approach attractive to those researching within “noisy” realms, where the signal-to-noise ratio is low. Soft computing is normally accepted to include the three key areas of fuzzy logic, artificial neural networks, and probabilistic reasoning (which includes genetic algorithms, chaos theory, etc.).

Palliative care and hospices developed promptly science the late 1960s and in India 1980s. It is also known as end of life care (EoLC) which is specialize Palliative care improves quality of life and gives care with satisfaction especially for advanced cancer patient and it originated to seeing death of people from acute to chronic conditions of cancer and other diseases. It gives emphasis on improving quality of life of patients. Palliative care is designed for terminally ill person and for their families. Palliative care is given in cancer, dementia, heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and Parkinson’s disease etc whereas in some countries palliative care given especially given in cancer such as United Kingdom through hospices and support teams. It can be said that mainly it is related to oncology. Goal of palliative care is to prevent or treat symptoms and side effects of disease of individual soon as possible on the basis of physical, social, and spiritual problems. Any person can receive it without hesitate about age and stage of disease. It can be received in hospitals, a long term care facility centre, an outpatient clinic, or at home under supervision of certified health care provider. Cancer patient receive many treatment such as chemo therapy, radio therapy, surgery, medicines etc, but palliative care provide people and their families more comfortable.

The biggest and most accessible organ of the body is the skin. Topical medication delivery has become more and more popular among people as the prevalence of dermatological problems, desire for drug targeting, and patient compliance have all grown. The stratum corneum, the top layer of the epidermis, blocks the penetration of most pharmaceuticals, making drug administration over the skin a difficulty for researchers. To administer the medications topically, a variety of techniques have been utilised, including the use of chemical permeation enhancers and physical techniques including sonophoresis, iontophoresis, electroporation, microneedles, etc. There are certain restrictions and disadvantages to these approaches to topical administration of drugs. Therefore, new techniques based on nano delivery system such as liposphere gels has been developed for the treatment of disease like osteoarthritis which is common in old age people.

Full textAbstract:
Introduction: individuals with Post-COVID-19 Syndrome have symptoms such as chronic fatigue, myalgia, cough and mental health problems, which can compromise postural balance, cardiorespiratory capacity and quality of life. Multicomponent training is an association of different types of therapeutic exercises that can promote a better physical-functional recovery from illnesses such as severe respiratory disease that can be generalized for people with COVID-19. Objective: to investigate the relationship between multicomponent training and its effects on postural balance, cardiorespiratory capacity and quality of life of individuals with Post-COVID-19 Syndrome. Methodology: randomized clinical trial, in a sample of 59 individuals, of both sexes and aged between 18 and 70 years. In the initial and final evaluation, a form with sociodemographic and clinical questions was used. Postural balance was assessed using the Berg balance scale; cardiorespiratory capacity by the 6MWT walking test and quality of life by the quality of life questionnaire - SF 36. The sample was divided into: intervention group (IG: n=31) and control group (GC: n=28). The IG received 24 training sessions, 60 minutes each, for 12 consecutive weeks, while the CG received educational guidance during the same training period. Significance level p≤0.05. Results: the sample consisted of 59 individuals, with a mean age of 52.3+11.9, 57.6% female. On the Berg scale, the GI obtained a change from 48.8+4 points (Pre) to 51.9+4.26 points (Post) and GC, 47.8+3.96 points (Pre) to 47.9+ 4.96 points (Post). As for the distance covered in the 6MWT, GI ranged from 464.4 +81.3 meters (Pre) to 518.6 +82.7 meters (Post), and GC from 441.2 + 118.7 meters (Pre) to 433.9 + 111.7 meters (Post). And as for quality of life, GI presented a raw score of 96.3+ 10.1 (Pre) to 102.6 + 5.5 (Post), and GC, 96.4+8.0 (Pre) to 97, 7+7.7 (Post). All variables studied did not show statistically significant difference in intragroup and intergroup analysis (p≥0.05). Conclusion: multicomponent training had a positive impact on the analyzed variables; however, it was not more effective than the educational guidelines given to individuals with Post-COVID 19 Syndrome.

Conventional learning guidance systems are typically automated machines for creating teaching materials: quizzes, exercises, examinations etc. In the future, systems will also offer ease of use, attention to sociality, ability to adapt to the pupil's needs and skill levels, and time savings. Ease-of-use and adaptation can be sought using systems based on Artificial Intelligence (AI). Chatbots would save teachers time by talking with students about their problems automatically. The virtual classroom would release people from the physical state and offer the opportunity to play with different roles. For the teaching of physics, the virtual classroom provides an opportunity to try out things that are not practically possible. AI could enable automatically identify students’ strengths and weaknesses and utilize them. On the other hand, AI also could allow pupils to gain strength through peer learning by bringing students of the same level from all over the world to discuss their own views and could automatically filter out sub-standard and clearly false answers. AI can also be capable of automatically creating tailor-made materials based on student-level learning using deep learning. Finally, AI can also be used to treat pupils' reviews to a large extent. In this research we will evaluate how well new technology powered by AI could respond to the demands of different teaching-learning environments. We will present a learning system that is in use and discuss its differences between opportunities of Artificial Intelligence (AI) can support different teaching-learning environments and discuss little how AI could support different learning styles. Keywords: automatic teaching machine, artificial intelligence, student centric learning, learning environment, learning style.

OObesity is one of the serious problems that humanity is facing. Moreover, during our century obesity in children has reached concerning levels. In the case of adults the management of the associated problems depends on one's conscience and willpower. In the case of children, this phenomenon must determine the factors that influence the training and education of children to appropriately intervene in the prevention and treatment of this issue. The assumptions underlying the approach described in this paper spring from the seriousness of the childhood obesity problem, the known causes that led to the extension of the disease, and the growing dependence of the use of technology in everyday life. This paper aims on the one hand, to give a review of the ways in which the situation is reflected in the virtual environment: the different applications, platforms, information sites etc. On the other hand, the paper proposes tackling childhood obesity within a support platform for the management of prevention and treatment of this condition in children. The purpose of this platform (eObesity) is to assist in the treatment of overweight and obesity in children through exercise (programs). The direct beneficiaries are the overweight and obese children and the indirect beneficiaries are the physical education teachers and parents of children with obesity. Experts in the field (physical education teachers, physiotherapists, physicians, students specializing in physical education and sport) manage the interpretive component of the results of the activities. The configuration of the Platform and the management of the users before named are done by an administrator of the platform. The concepts underlying the platform are described in the paper and its general specifications are indicated as well as the current implementation status. The eObesity platform contains general information about obesity: causes, effects, diet, physical activities etc. The novelty and specificity is given by the component of support in the management of physical activity, which is physical education and sport specific through the theoretical and especially through the practical content as it can be seen in the video documents posted. The process of achieving the optimal weight is controlled through physical training modules with partial and final assessments of physical development and fitness, with recommendations for transition to another module. Specialists provide specialized assistance through virtual communication. Our conclusion is that a virtual support platform such as eObesity widens the variety of means for maintaining the health of children, combining work on the computer with the actual physical activity. Therefore eObesity holds a distinct place among the applications that treat this issue. Moreover, one can see a wide range of useage of the platform which facilitates access to specialty care from the home where one can perform physical activities.

ABSTRACT Proper motor development in primary school children is the main goal of physical education. The most common medical problems for pupils are spinal deformities. Our focus was on correcting different types of spinal deformities through an adapted swimming methodology. This paper discusses the use of specific swimming exercises to improve the aerobic capacity and spinal flexibility in order to acquire good body posture and to prevent further deformities. The contingent of the study were 21 boys and 19 girls, ages 7 - 10, with a medical diagnosis of spinal deformities, which were included in experimental and control groups, doing adapted swimming exercises from our experimental methodology and routine swimming exercises. The research methods were functional tests for assessing the aerobic capacity – spirometry, Hirz in inhale and exhale and spinal flexibility tests – bending left, right, and forwards. They were conducted in March and September 2020. Descriptive statistics, hypothesis testing, and correlation analysis were used for data analysis. The research results revealed that the pupils improved their chest mobility, pulmonary function, aerobic capacity, and spine flexibility. Statistically significant differences appeared between the groups in favor of the experimental methodology. The adapted swimming exercises should be used in future practice.

Abstract Design fixation has been extensively studied in the context of engineering design, leading to several interventions to reduce its negative effects. The concept of mental fixation has roots in diverse psychological contexts from Freudian psychoanalysis to Gestaltism and eating disorders. Although the underlying concepts are similar, the phenomenon has different names, including mental set, rumination, functional fixedness, obsession, etc. Mental fixation in its various forms is always a barrier to problem solving, whether the problem is a psychological disorder or an engineering-design task. The present paper explores the applicability to design fixation of cognitive therapy, a form of psychotherapy that relies on questioning to identify and modify inaccurate perceptions. Originally developed to treat depression, it is now used to treat a variety of psychiatric disorders. Specific interventions used in cognitive therapy are described in detail towards developing new means of overcoming design fixation. These interventions include cognitive restructuring and exposure response prevention. Also explored are links to other research results from psychology and cognitive science, including focused distraction, and the effects of music and physical exercise. In addition to developing new interventions, existing design-fixation interventions can also be supplemented using insights from these research results.

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACT Introduction. International activities in physical education, sport, and kinesitherapy are connected with the translation of materials or oral interpretation. Translation is considered the art of choosing the right words to transfer information from one language to another (Steiner, 1998). Translation of specialized materials requires language skills and knowledge in the respective field (Grego, 2010). Sports students often use materials or have contacts with colleagues from other countries – at training camps, competitions, conferences, etc. Translation competence is an important part of their education and professional development. Methods. The research aimed to establish how students from the National Sports Academy “V. Levski” deal with translation and oral interpretation in their fields - physical education, sport, or kinesitherapy, and whether they would like to have more translation and interpretation activities as part of their specialized language courses at the Academy. The subjects of the study were 44 students from the three faculties of the Academy. A survey was conducted at the end of the spring term of 2021-2022. The subjects completed a questionnaire with 11 closed-ended questions. Survey data were processed with alternative analysis and a chi-square test (x²). Results and discussion. The acquired results show that more than half of the respondents need to translate documents or written materials. 68% of them rely on their own language skills. 63% also use translation tools and services but do not find them very reliable. Most of them would like to have more translation tasks and interpretation exercises as part of their language courses at the Academy. Conclusions. The study results show that sports students need to improve their competence in translation and interpretation in their field of specialization, and the language courses at the Academy should try to offer more opportunities for that.

Tablets and smartphones are now increasingly common and the interfaces are predominantly touch-based and often multi-touch. More and more schools are testing them with their students in the hope of bringing educational benefits. With this new type of device, new interactions become possible. Many studies have been done on the manipulation of 3D objects with 2D input devices, but we are only at the beginning of studies that link the needs of pedagogy with the possibilities of these new types of interactions. FINGERS© ((Find INteractions for Geometry learNERS) )is an application for learning spatial geometry. It is intended for pupils aged 9 to 12. The interactions have been designed with the teachers. Some interactions are specific to 3D geometry (translations 3 DOF, rotations, nets, combinations of cubes, etc) and others are general like naming or multi-selection. Many gesture grammars offer a set of interactions to select an object or a group of objects. Multi-taps or lassoing around an area are commonly adopted interactions. The execution of geometry exercises requires the construction of other interactions such as multi-criteria selection. The real question is how to introduce a parameter into the tactile selection. This seemingly simple interaction is in fact complex to implement. One of the problems is often the large amount of information displayed on the screen. The amount of information displayed does not allow the use of conventional selection modes. The difficulties encountered are, for example, that objects can hide, their size is too small, their number is too large. This selection could be based on physical similarity (cube, cylinder, pyramid, sphere, etc.), similarity of colour, orientation in space, etc. For example, how to select all red cubes, how to select all green objects, how to select all cylinders. The real question is how to define a grammar of tactile gestures that allows parameter selection. After presenting the limitations of current solutions, we present the solutions developed in FINGERS©. We explain how they allow a simple and intuitive "multi-criteria" selection by using physical or colorometric characteristics of objects. We present examples from the implementation of this selection mode in the FINGERS software.

Abstract The course work in any engineering discipline is necessarily based on an assumption that the student has a good foundation of fundamental engineering mathematics. Yet, many Engineering Technology courses have been born out of the desire to provide the student with the more straightforward and practical application of the art and science of engineering to realistic engineering problems while minimizing the need for sophisticated mathematical solutions. This dilemma can be resolved by utilizing an inexpensive mathematical tool that is virtually omnipresent in even the least expensive PC: the spreadsheet. It is a software package that even the most mathematically challenged student is well aware and is comfortable in using for routine mathematical if not specifically, engineering applications: data reduction, curve-fitting, plug-in iterative solutions, etc. This paper will describe the author’s effort, with the support from Northeastern University’s Provost Office and The Center for Effective University Teaching (CEUT), in providing the ET student (and in the future, the physical science student) with a powerful tool for solving non-trivial engineering and physical science problems while also helping the student understand the engineering and scientific fundamentals behind the solutions. This effort will hopefully culminate in the development of an instructional Primer that can be used by engineering and Arts and Science students when studying engineering and physical (and natural) sciences.
