Supervised Curricular Internship II: Experiences of the future chemistry teacher in remote education

The research analyzed the experiences of 20 (twenty) students developed in Remote Teaching (ER) in the 1st semester of 2021 after completing the Supervised Curricular Internship II. A qualitative and quantitative approach was carried out using a virtual questionnaire created on the Google Forms® digital platform, to investigate the choice of the Chemistry Degree course, conditions of access to digital technologies, pedagogical tools used during the internship, adversities encountered by these students during the realization of the internship and the contributions of the remote internship for the formation of the Graduate in Chemistry. After analyzing and tabulating the data, the research presented the following results: the students chose a degree because they like to teach and because of their insertion in the job market, they accessed digital technologies at home, using smartphones through a broadband service with good quality connection, used Google Meet®, WhatsApp® and VLE virtual learning environment as pedagogical tools during the internship. Internet access, lack of knowledge in digital media and adaptation to remote classes were the adversities encountered during the internship. Learning and using different technological resources and digital platforms were the main contributions of the internship to the formation of decent people. The virtual remote internship enabled and provided opportunities for varied everyday experiences, promoting reflection on teaching work.

Understanding Individual Political Ideology: Determinants and Tolerance

Political polarization and antipathy has grown greatly in the last few decades, causing more than simple political issues, having the ability to hurt regular peoples’ livelihood. The best way to help remedy this issue is for all people, regardless of ideological stance, to see those with a differing stance as decent people with perhaps a different approach. Therefore, understanding what factors make people think a certain way is a must. A two-variable axis was developed for this paper to more objectively measure ideology and to limit false ideological moderation as much as possible. This study used a 3 survey system with 16 unique ideological questions based on common political issues. The study asked for demographic information like Age and Gender, as well as unique factors theism, GPA, and tolerance. Results corroborated those of polling studies, as well as showed that Theism has a strong grip on ethical issues, GPA has very little effect, and those that tolerated opposing ideas tended to have a more traditional ethical view.

Special Editorial: Bashing and murder of doctors and health care workers in Myanmar

In recent times we have seen doctors targeted in the wars of primitive brutal dictators across the globe. Even the Covid pandemic has been used by the lowest of the low to strengthen their personal power and wealth. What the dictators and despots in their delusional state call greatness is just the endless repetitive brutality of some ignorant men throughout our appalling and disgraceful human history. These psychopaths in our midst have been the sole cause of human misery either directly by their own actions, - murder, torture and genocide – or through theft of national wealth and the consequent lack of social services and public health – the rights of all men. While it has happened forever, and is the biggest blot on any self-respect that the human race can muster, it does NOT represent all humanity. The equal and opposite also occurs. There are sane and decent, dedicated, hardworking and civilised humans who hold up a mirror to these brutes in our midst and their hired killers who happily do their paid torture, murder and genocide for them. Worse still, at this crucial time in the fight for survival of most species on planet earth, we have these brutes destroying the last food stocks and resources that we should be preserving for ongoing mutual survival. The practice of Medicine is the exact opposite to the path the brutal dictators choose. It is an element of the ascent of man. I have pleaded before for decency and the rights of people and the doctors who heal the array of injuries caused to them. The latest evil is in Myanmar. And it is not just the brutal Military dictatorship. This time I call on China and Russia who are backing this evil regime, for their own gain – to stop bashing and murdering doctors, nurses, children, babies and the gentle, decent people of Myanmar; stop deliberately herding them into jails to catch Covid-19; stop torturing; stop raping women and children. Stop taking other people’s property and land and lives – and that includes genocide of the Uighur Muslims and the Tibetans - as well as oppression of the people of your own countries. Enough is enough. No-one in the world is fooled by staged propaganda videos, rather it is even more sinister behaviour - and they bring no-one back to life. The world has seen far too many evil barbarous men and now in a time we must all work together to survive – we have the worst of the worst, ganging up like schoolyard bullies and bringing shame and disgust on the entire human race – such is the legacy you have created for yourselves. Choose your actions carefully - the universe is watching and waiting.

«But don't quote me on that»: how Ukrainian top media characterized the perception of migration and migrants

Ukraine finds itself in the countries of the Global North, which means that it adopts the formulation of its typical research questions like the current migration research landscape. Existing research are heavily skewed towards the Global North, where governments and international organizations increasingly fund them to inform policy development. Thus, migration provides the relevance of the study of discourses around the body of concepts on it. The article describes the subtexts of media characterising the perception of migration by migrants themselves and the perception of migrants by host side. With using the Mediateka tool, an automated sample of 39,000 reports on various groups of migrants was received in the TOP-15 of the Ukrainian media (print media, TV channels, informational online media) from 2015 to 2018. The sample consisted of 12,000 messages, every tenth of which was selected for further in-depth analysis. The research was based on qualitative content analysis and critical discourse analysis. The six steps were done: looking at the description of the migration as objective necessity, subjective aspiration and something meaningless, and looking at the description of migrants as decent people, indecent people and just people with some lifestyle. The latent meanings of the messages, where the leading Ukrainian media touched on the perception of migration and migrants, were divergent and contradictory; they could not become the basis for confidence in any permanent characteristics of the images of migrants. As one of the most interesting prospects for further research, it may be the test of whether those transmitted meanings, which are usually considered positive, can interfere with social integration, and vice versa – whether negative meanings can help it. This can be done on the basis of additional empirical research using quantitative methods, such as cluster analysis to check which groups media consumers might be divided into after receiving the information about migrants.

The Information Development Process of Wintersweet, Orchid, Bamboo, and Chrysanthemum in Chinese Traditional Painting from the Perspective of Information Philosophy, Also on the Selection of Chinese Traditional Painting Materials

The selection of traditional Chinese painting materials is often accompanied by other meanings given by people, and the process of giving meaning is the process of information development. Wintersweet, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum, from their own form and people’s observation of them, have been given a special meaning: wintersweet, proud like snow and decent people; orchid, symbolizing the gentleman’s integrity and independence; bamboo, symbolizing the gentleman’s humility; chrysanthemum, symbolizing the gentleman’s hidden inner world, which is not trapped in the trivial things. This development process deals with the development process of in-itself information, for-itself information, and regenerated information. The wintersweet, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum expressed by the artist in Chinese traditional painting is the social information of the three states of in-itself information, for-itself information, and regenerated information of three-state information. The selection of traditional Chinese painting materials has gone through the same process.

Psychological reasons for non-participation of youth in political life

Introduction. The article discusses comparative psychograms of groups of respondents. They are formed on the basis of 9 their reasons for non-participation in political life.Materials and Methods. For analysis (120 respondents, 2 sociological questionnaires, 6 personality tests), we use the author's method of multiple comparison (generalized version). As a result, the summ extremeness of these 9 groups were determined within the framework of a problem in which 89 groups were compared.Results. Based on the summ extremeness of personal qualities for three groups of high extremeness, full psychograms are given. These are groups whose respondents: 1) were at a loss to answer why they are not taking part in political life; 2) due to personal employment do not participate in political life; 3) do not take part in political life because they trust the president and believe that he will solve all problems. For next gruops on the extremeness (3 groups), abbreviated psychograms are considered, in which only pronounced personal qualities are indicated. These are groups whose respondents: 1) do not participate in political life because politics is a “dirty business” and decent people have nothing to do there; 2) they do not see leaders whom they could follow, and therefore do not take part in political life; 3) do not participate in political life because, in their opinion, professionals should deal with politics. For the remaining three groups, in which no pronounced personal qualities were revealed (the picture quite averaged over the whole of 89 groups), only their names are listed for reasons of non-participation of their representatives in political life.Discussion and Conclusions. As a result, we can conclude that the reasons for the non-participation of respondents in political life are largely determined by their psychological identity.
