Many complex formula derivation steps found within material science and engineering programmes are essential skill-developing activities that enhance students’ learning. However, most students lack the required mathematical knowledge to fully comprehend some of those derivation steps. This work developed a framework of clarifying some of the formula derivations steps by adding further mathematical steps that support the students’ constructive and cognitive learning. Some derivation steps were added to the derivations of the theoretical tensile strength model as well as the Maxwell’s and the Voigt-Kelvin models. The idea was not to disrupt students’ constructive or cognitive learning processes but to facilitate their learning since their ultimate aim is not to derive but to apply the steps of the modified derivations in solving other material science and engineering problems. The students benefited from the activities in two folds; firstly, they understood the reasons behind each derivation step and secondly, it improved their self-study activities by reducing their study periods. These activities provide a platform to widen STEM activities at higher education institutions. The ongoing work will look at other important formula derivation steps within material science and engineering that can enhance students’ learning.

The textbook describes the methods of graphical representation of the results of the calculation of physical and engineering problems, represented by specialized programs and operating system tools. The graphic capabilities of the MATLAB package, which, along with powerful calculation tools, has excellent computer graphics, are studied in detail. A number of visualization tasks are solved by computer graphics programming methods in C++. The GDI GUI functions are used from the set of system API functions that the Windows operating system provides to the user. All examples in C++ are tested in the Visual Studio 2008 project development environment. The issues of interaction between the MATLAB package and programs written in C++ in the Visual Studio environment are considered. Meets the requirements of the federal state educational standards of higher education of the latest generation. For students studying in the field of training "Software Engineering".

Currently, there is a strong push in the field of scientific and technological progress in our country, which is closely related to the use of various mathematical methods and computer technology. Special attention should be paid to their use in solving any economic and engineering problems. They, in turn, are used in many areas of the company's activities, for example, when solving certain problems of planning and managing production processes, and long-term planning. In this regard, it is important for students of various fields of higher education to know and understand the application of mathematical methods and the problems that arise

Abstract Cluttering is discussed openly in the fluency literature, but few educational opportunities for learning more about cluttering exist in higher education. The purpose of this manuscript is to explain how a seminar in cluttering was developed for a group of communication disorders doctoral students. The major theoretical issues, educational questions, and conclusions are discussed.

Purpose The purpose of this article was to extend the concepts of systems of oppression in higher education to the clinical setting where communication and swallowing services are delivered to geriatric persons, and to begin a conversation as to how clinicians can disrupt oppression in their workplace. Conclusions As clinical service providers to geriatric persons, it is imperative to understand systems of oppression to affect meaningful change. As trained speech-language pathologists and audiologists, we hold power and privilege in the medical institutions in which we work and are therefore obligated to do the hard work. Suggestions offered in this article are only the start of this important work.
