Roll Back

Abstract In this study, we look at student perceptions of a first course in linear algebra, focusing on two specific aspects. The first is the statement by Carlson that a fog rolls in once abstract notions such as subspaces, span and linear independence are introduced, while the second investigates statements made by several authors regarding the negative emotions that students can experience during the course. An attempt is made to mitigate this through mediation to include a significant number of applications, while continually dwelling on the key concepts of the subject throughout the semester. The results show that students agree with Carlson’s statement, with the concept of a subspace causing particular difficulty. However, the research does not reveal the negative emotions alluded to by other researchers. The students note the importance of grasping the key concepts and are strongly in favour of using practical applications to demonstrate the utility of the theory.

By all measures attempted, scientific literacy of the American public is sadly wanting. The vast majority of our secondary school children and adults have no knowledge of most of the basic terms or concepts of science. The reasons for this shortcoming are many but prominent among them are sadly deficient texts, teachers untrained in the subject matter they teach, and college and university scientists who divorce themselves from the problem, although probably deploring it. Our institutions are no aid. They reward scientific productivity (read: number of papers published per year and research dollars), not teaching. Some suggested cures are production of better texts, training of science teachers in the field in which they teach, and, most importantly, involvement of scientists in the process. We must be willing to spend some of our time with secondary school pupils and their teachers. All will gain from the experience.

The main purpose of the presented article is to reveal the potential of social psychological knowledge for the analysis of radicalisation of young people. In the introduction, the features of socialisation in the modern world are discussed. Special attention is drawn to the role of the Internet in the socialisation of adolescents and young people. It is noted that the dominance of audiovisual information contributes to the reduction of reflexivity and promotes the so-called clip thinking, which has become an integral characteristic of adolescents and young people. It is emphasized that life in the modern society is associated with a number of changes taking place simultaneously at different levels, and uncertainty has become its important feature. Extremism and radicalisation are considered as a reaction to uncertainty, a way to overcome it. The main part of the article is devoted to the analysis of models of radicalization describes in various works. Finally, perspectives of further investigation into the subject are outlined.

Considering total crisis in education in Informational Age, we suggest that to overcome the crisis, it is necessary to promote pedagogical science up from "pre-paradigm stage” to the "paradigm stage". For this purpose it is necessary to separate the "educational science" from "education." “Educational paradigm” in such study will be the subject of the science. The key concepts for the "pedagogical paradigm" should be the concepts of "educational practice", "class of problems" and "educational text". We offer some axioms around these concepts.

This article is dedicated to the examination of euphemisms in the various-system languages – English and Buryat that contain view of the world by a human, and the ways of their conceptualization. Euphemisms remain insufficiently studied. Whereupon, examination of linguistic expression of the key concepts of culture is among the paramount programs of modern linguistics, need for the linguoculturological approach towards analysis of euphemisms in the languages, viewing it in light of the current sociocultural transformations, which are refer to euphemisms and values reflected by them. The subject of this research is the euphemisms in the English and Buryat languages, representing the semiosphere “corporeal and spiritual”. The scientific novelty consists in introduction of the previously unexamined euphemism in Buryat language that comprise semiosphere “corporeal and spiritual” into the scientific discourse. The analysis of language material testifies to the fact that in various cultures the topic of intimacy and sex is euphemized differently. The lexis indicating the intimate parts of the body is vividly presented in the West, while in Buryat language – rather reserved. The author also determines the common, universal, and nationally marked components elucidating the linguistic worldview of different ethnoses and cultures.

В статье поднимается проблема формирования метапредметных связей у обучающихся старших классов через их увлечение киберспортом. Во введении авторы поясняют, что современный мир невозможно представить без цифровых технологий. Киберспорт становится все более популярным, и его невозможно не использовать в образовательных целях. Актуальность темы обусловлена требованиями федерального государственного стандарта, в котором говорится о необходимости формирования метапредметных компетенций. В статье дается анализ образовательных учреждений, которые активно внедряют программу киберспорта, и приводятся примеры университетов США, Норвегии, Швеции и России. Материалом исследования стали нормативные документы, регламентирующие киберспорт в школьном образовании, публикации в СМИ на образовательных порталах. Методами исследования являлись анкетирование, анализ, синтез, моделирование. Результаты исследования показали, что увлеченность киберспортом все более возрастает и в рамках образовательного процесса позволяет формировать универсальные учебные действия с учетом интересов подростков и способствует развитию метапредметных связей и коммуникативных навыков. Авторы пришли к выводу, что развитие киберспортивного направления в школах необходимо, так как подобная цифровая образовательная среда может выступить площадкой для формирования метапредметных компетенций у детей старшего школьного возраста, в том числе и в условиях дистанционного обучения. This article considers the formation of interdisciplinary links at senior schoolchildren through their interest in cybersport. In the introduction the authors explain that it is impossible to imagine modern life without digital technologies. Cybersport is becoming more and more popular and it is hardly possible to ignore this interest in educational purposes. The relevance of the subject is defined by the requirement of the Federal State Standard which writes that it is necessary to form interdisciplinary competences. The article gives the analysis of educational institutions which are introducing the program of cybersport and provides some examples of the universities in the USA, Norway, Sweden and Russia. The material of the investigation is the regulations restricting cybersport in school education, articles on educational website. The methods employed are the following: analysis, synthesis, modeling. The results of the investigation show that great interest in cybersport within education lets us form universal learning actions taking into consideration senior schoolchildren’ interest and help to develop interdisciplinary and communicative skills. The authors come to the conclusion that the development of cybersport at schools is necessary because such digital educational environment can be means of formation of interdisciplinary ability of senior schoolchildren under the conditions of online studying.

The Impact

In this article we focus on identifying the specificity of digital transformation within the public sector. The aim of the article is to present the main mechanisms resulting from the introduction of digital innovations that have changed the functioning of the public sector. Starting from a discussion on the technological requirements of digital transformation, we briefly characterise the use of computers and the Internet in public administration, resulting in the development of e-services and administration. The main part of the article is devoted to discussing the specificity of the implementation of the new digital technologies in public administration, focusing mainly on artificial intelligence and blockchain technologies. Our thesis is that the impact of innovative digital technologies on the operation standards and structure of public administration should be analysed through the prism of interrelated mechanisms of datafication and platformisation, characteristic for the digital economy. The adopted methodology, which is based on an analysis of the subject literature and an analysis of new technology implementations in public administration in EU countries, indicates the pilot, random and non-transformational nature of these implementations, partly due to the lack of well-established methodologies to study and assess the maturity of digital transformation within the public sector.
