The Effectiveness of Synchronous and Asynchronous Blended Teaching Plan for Preschool Education Major Students at The Institute of Teacher Education in Ningxia Province, People Republic of China

Background and Aims: In recent years, the role of choral conducting courses in China's basic education has been receiving more and more attention. A sudden increase in the demand for chorus and conducting courses in primary school has led to a shortage of teachers in this professional field in underdeveloped areas such as Ningxia. To efficiently train more primary school teachers who possess choral conducting skills for basic education has become the primary focus of colleges and universities offering primary school education majors. The purpose of this article is to explore whether synchronous and asynchronous blended teaching plans can achieve, or even surpass, the academic performance of traditional educational methods while enhancing the efficiency of the curriculum. Methodology: This quasi-experimental study aims to investigate the effects of various teaching plans on participants’ outcomes. The participants consist of students engaged in a chorus and conducting an education setting. In this research procedure, the 39 participants were divided into three groups, each experiencing a different teaching method: the traditional teaching plan group, the synchronous blended teaching plan group, and the asynchronous blended teaching plan group. After implementing the teaching plans, standardized tests are administered to all three groups to measure their learning outcomes and performance. The collected data, comprising participants' test scores, will undergo statistical analysis using ANOVA and the Paired T-test. Result: The final research results indicated that there was no statistically significant difference in the performance of the three participant groups. In other words, all three teaching plans exhibited a positive effect on participants' performance, with similar degrees of improvement. When considering average scores in sub-subjects, participants in the blended program generally outperformed those in the traditional style. Conclusion: The blended teaching plan combines the convenience of online teaching with the benefits of offline practical instruction. The researchers contend that employing a blended teaching approach can enhance course efficiency, offering a viable alternative to the traditional teaching method.

Intelligent Control of Solar LED Street Lamp Based on Adaptive Fuzzy PI Control

As road traffic develops, energy-saving and efficient street lights have become a key research field for relevant professionals. To reduce street lights energy consumption, a fireworks algorithm is used to optimize the membership function parameters of fuzzy control and the initial parameters of PI control. A fireworks algorithm improved adaptive fuzzy PI solar LED street light control system is designed. The results showed that in the calculation of Root-mean-square deviation and Mean absolute error, the Root-mean-square deviation of the adaptive fuzzy PI control system improved by the fireworks algorithm was 0.213, 0.258, 0.243, 0.220, and the Mean absolute error was 0.143, 0.152, 0.154, 0.139, respectively, which proved that the prediction accuracy was high and the stability was good. In the calculation of the 1-day power consumption of the solar LED intelligent control system, the average power consumption of the designed solar LED intelligent control system was about 2000W, which was 25.9%, 47.4%, and 42.9% lower than the other three control methods, respectively. This proves that its energy consumption is low, and its heat generation is low, and the battery service life is long. The research and design of an adaptive fuzzy PI control solar LED street light intelligent control system has good performance, which can effectively achieve intelligent management and energy conservation and emission reduction in smart cities.

Emotional intelligence and its impact on human life in the global world

Everyone strives to be successful in their lives, but emotions often become the basis for destructive behaviour. The development of emotional intelligence allows people to understand and manage their emotions, which enables them to successfully adapt to change and build positive social interactions. The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of emotional intelligence on human life in the context of personal and professional success. The study employed general scientific methods: analysis, synthesis, comparison, classification, generalisation, and formalisation. Different approaches to the interpretation of the term “emotional intelligence” were analysed. It was found that there is no unified approach to the definition of this term, but scientists build the concept of emotional intelligence considering four aspects of the human psyche in relation to emotions: self-management, self-awareness, social awareness, and control. The author also considered the history of the development of emotional intelligence as a category, which is very intensive in terms of understanding this concept and its research. It was found that throughout life, a person can develop their emotional intelligence, since it is not well-established from birth, but can be developed. It was argued that emotional intelligence does not depend on age and professional field of activity. The influence of developed emotional intelligence on the participants of the educational process, including teachers, students, and heads of educational institutions, was considered. The findings of this study can be used by researchers for further analysis of the term “emotional intelligence” and its impact on human life, by teachers for the development of teaching materials, and by students to get acquainted with the theory of this topic

Международная проектная деятельность вуза как инструмент формирования культурной компетентности обучающихся

The article considers international project activities at the university as a tool for the formation of students' cultural competence. Cultural and international projects at the university contribute to the expansion of students' horizons about other scientific and professional fields, which affects the formation of cultural competence, which in turn affects the development of a threedimensional worldview, Self-Agent qualities, motivation for self-knowledge and self-realization, etc. Also, a culture-oriented educational process using project activities at a university provides conditions for students to adapt to work in related fields of activity, mastering new skills, continuous learning and development throughout life, which corresponds to the realities of a dynamically developing labor market at the present stage. In turn, the formation of cultural competence has always been considered as a necessary requirement for higher education, but in modern conditions it is of particular importance. The above aspects indicate the possibility and necessity of a modern university to implement culture-oriented and culture-preserving functions, which are extremely significant in the situation of the value crisis of modern Russian society.

СОЗДАНИЕ И СОСТАВЛЕНИЕ УЧЕБНИКОВ, УЧЕБНЫХ ПОСОБИЙ, ПРОГРАММ, ИСПОЛЬЗУЕМЫХ ПРИ ОБУЧЕНИИ КЫРГЫЗСКОМУ ЯЗЫКУ ДЛЯ ПРОФЕССИЙ СТУДЕНТОВ, ОБУЧАЮЩИХСЯ АВИАЦИОННЫМ СПЕЦИАЛЬНОСТЯМ.

This topic is devoted to the creation and compilation of textbooks, teaching aids and programs used in teaching the Kyrgyz language to aviation students. The development of the Kyrgyz language in the aviation sector is an important aspect, since it is the state language of the Kyrgyz Republic and reflects the cultural heritage of the country. In this regard, the development of a special approach to teaching the Kyrgyz language to aviation students will significantly improve their communication skills and promote effective interaction in the professional field. Aviation textbooks, manuals and programs should take into account the specifics of aviation terminology, the peculiarities of grammar and phonetics of the Kyrgyz language, and also provide students with practical exercises to develop writing, reading, speaking and listening skills. On their basis, students will be able to effectively apply the learned language structures and expressions within the framework of their professional activities. As a result, the creation of high-quality textbooks, teaching aids and programs will contribute to the successful teaching of the Kyrgyz language to aviation students and to improving their professional level.

Public relations recruitment as boundary-making: The client, the ‘fit’ and the disposability of diversity

In this article we explore the ways in which specialist recruitment practices for the PR industry influence the pursuit of diversity in the profession. Drawing on interviews from an exploratory study of specialist PR recruitment in the UK, we combine Abbott’s theory of boundary-making between professional fields with existing research on the exclusionary dynamics of recruitment in professions, to explain how PR recruitment consolidates the focus on client and candidate ‘fit,’ and is likely to work in favour of preserving the dominance of middle-class, white and gendered identities in the profession. In this context, diversity is perceived as a risk rather than an opportunity and becomes a casualty of professional logic.

An Evaluation Set Proposal on the Interaction of Cinema Architecture for Improving the Creative and Aesthetic Dimensions in Architectural Art and Education

Architect candidates must undergo a qualified aesthetic and cultural education in a professional field such as architecture that outweighs the artistic side. This idea originates from the belief that architectural projects and designs by architects with a profound artistic-cultural education enriched by global culture would enhance aesthetics and liveability. Understanding great works of art is pivotal to reshape societal and architectural aesthetics. The relationship between architecture and cinema starts primarily with the spaces.Thus, exploring the interplay between architecture and cinema within spatial designs is crucial. This article aims to establish an evaluation set uncovering the original architectural and artistic elements in movies that heavily rely on architecture. Our objective is to equip architects, interior designers, urban planners, industrial designers, and landscape architects with the tools to analyze films referencing architectural art and derive insights. The research methodology involved a comprehensive analysis of various films, assessing architectural concepts, design principles, and the architectural perception they convey. Each film’s architectural and cinematic interplay was scrutinized, and the findings were compiled into tables. The components within these assessment tables were meticulously interpreted in relation to architectural concepts, design principles, artistic aesthetics, and architectural perception.By internalizing the films examined in this study, a cultural maturity can be achieved, offering a valuable resource for enhancing the aesthetic, theoretical, and artistic aspects of architectural education.The primary goal is to inspire architects with a deep understanding of these cinematic works, enabling them to approach their profession, events, and projects with a refined, sophisticated, and aesthetic perspective, ultimately contributing to their professional growth. In conclusion, the internalization of the analyzed films can lead to cultural maturity, which, in turn, serves as a valuable resource for enhancing aesthetic, theoretical, and artistic qualities in architectural education.

The Role of Interdisciplinary Approach in ELT

The paper deals with interdisciplinary approach of teaching English ter-minologies. Since language competence is linked with career options, sta-tus, and so forth, the presence of specific terminological barriers among the students from different faculties also has to be acknowledged. This demands interdisciplinary approaches in teaching process. Specific termi-nology is the standard vocabulary used in the professional field. Profes-sionals can conduct communication successfully by using terminologies easily and accurately.The research involved gathering date on learners views on their learn-ing needs and expectations, on encountered difficulties in learning Eng-lish terminologies at university, the degree of importance of proficiency in professional areas of language, and collecting and analysing learners.Empirical research questions relate to:1. The importance of interdisciplinary approach in the process of teach-ing English medical terminology2. How to use an interdisciplinary approach

RESEARCH-BASED STUDENT PRACTICE IN GERMAN UNIVERSITIES

Higher education in Germany is characterized by a tendency to form an educational space of an organic combination of student learning and scientific research activities. Involvement of applicants into scientific researches contributes to the formation in them of a stable interest in the future profession, an active position in life, motives for realizing one's potential, self-development and self-improvement throughout life. The experience of Germany is of particular interest for domestic research, since this country has developed methodological and technological potential, as well as effective forms and methods for organizing student research activities, including during practice. The purpose of the article is to analyze the peculiarities of practical training of students in higher education in Germany as a means of forming their research competence. Research methods – analysis of scientific literature, systematization (to clarify the key concepts of the study), comparative analysis (to clarify the peculiarities of practical education in higher education in Germany and its research component), generalization (to form the author's conclusions). It has been established that research training of future teachers during practice is carried out by ensuring its consistency and modularity - orientation practice takes place on the basis of the university, professional field practice (referendariat) takes place at the Center for Practical Training of Future Teachers. Interaction between the university and the Center occurs in the following areas: agreement on the basic principles of student learning in practice; defining a practical training strategy; exchange of experience in practical training of future teachers. It has been determined that the German model of practical training of students includes five components (blocks): 1) subject-institutional (cooperation council, Centre for Practical Training of Future Teachers, Centre for Pedagogical Research, practical semester working group, coordinators, university teachers, school teachers, students); 2) functional-practical (determines the functional responsibilities of subjects of practical training); 3) content-targeted (represented by the stages and goals of practical training, defined by the humanistic-constructivist concept); 4) procedural-technological (involves the formation of research skills through the use of such forms and methods as: seminar, consultation, discussion, case analysis, individual task, reflection of performance results, portfolio); 5) control and evaluation (involves comparing the learning outcomes obtained by students in practice with the regulatory requirements for the professional activities of teachers).

Useful Animation: Iconography, Infrastructure and Impact

This article defines and explores the history of ‘useful animation’. Animation has found frequent application as a powerful practical and conceptual tool in professional fields requiring a versatile instrument for a variety of representational needs, from science and medicine to education and advertising. Today, forms of useful animation populate our television news, social media and urban environments in ways that are no less consequential for their having become second nature. But how did we get here? This tradition is distinct from entertainment or art and its investigation requires a revision of existing animation history, prompting new research questions and methodologies. This article presents such a framework for further work in this field. In doing so, it has three main aims. First, the authors establish the intellectual context and consider the historiographic implications of prior research in this area. Second, they ask three key theoretical research questions that can guide the investigation of the history of useful animation: How did useful animation build upon existing graphic traditions? What were the professional and institutional contexts for useful animation and how did these develop? and What impact did animation have on professional fields and their understanding of the world? Finally, the authors present three case studies from the first decades of film history that illustrate how these questions can be answered, and they suggest methods and research resources available to scholars of useful animation. These address Jean Comandon’s public health films in post-WWI France, animated maps made by the Austro-German Institut für Kulturforschung in the inter-war period and the animated film Unemployment and Money made in Britain illustrating Michael Polanyi’s economic theories in the 1930s. This article provides a basis for future research into this topic.

"It Feels So Real": The Value of Using Elements of Theatre to Rehearse a Profession

Abstract: In partnering with occupational therapy (OT) degree programs to enhance students' preparedness for the field, the applied theatre in education company, Theatre in Tandem, implemented sessions utilizing the applied theatre forms of structured improvisation and role-play to rehearse the profession. This piece documents learning possibilities found in the unpredictability of these theatre conventions: supporting the classroom curriculum, navigating realistic interactions in simulated scenarios, and creating space for the students to negotiate ambiguity as they made connections between the classroom learnings and the professional field.

From GE to ESP: technology of educational work with professional authentic foreign language materials for junior medical students

Introduction. Research competencies, including the skills of working with professional foreign language literature, various authentic sources, the ability to work with specialized scientific databases forms the basis of modern professional training of medical students. Aim. Description of the author's model of working with authentic foreign language materials for junior medical students and justification of the technology of organizing educational activities using specially selected authentic materials at the stage of the transition from general foreign language disciplines to professional communication. The subject of the study was the stage of transition from the general course of a foreign (English) language (GE) to a professional one (ESP). Materials and methods. The research is based on the cascade principle of the formation of foreign language competencies of medical students. This principle presupposes the systematization and practical application of general language knowledge, on the basis of which professionally significant communication skills are formed. The methods of analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, comparative studies were used, which made it possible to assess the relationship between the system of professional medical education and the use of authentic foreign language materials in this process. The empirical study was implemented by integrating professional questionnaires (needs analysis) [24] into D. Kirkpatrick's four-type model for evaluating the effectiveness of training during the transition from GE to ESP at the beginning and at the end of training. The study was conducted during one academic year (September 2022 – June 2023) in classes in the disciplines "Foreign language (General English)" and "English for professional communication (ESP/EAP)" at the Faculty of Medical Science (N. V. Sklifosovsky Institute of Clinical Medicine, Sechenov University). The respondents of the study were 80 medical students of junior courses (1st and 2nd year students) of the level of English proficiency "Intermediate" (B1+) and "Upper-Intermediate" (B2+). Results. The results of the study showed that medical students from the study group reacted positively to the introduction of professional authentic foreign language materials into the educational process. The developed model of designing educational work allowed to form and put into practice the technologies of the educational process relevant to the professional field of medicine, which increases not only the foreign language communication of students, but also their professional competencies. Conclusion. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the parameters of the developed model of the application of actual authentic materials into the educational process of professional training of medical specialists. The obtained results can be used in professional medical education, improving and improving the process of training professional personnel at the level of development of research and socially significant foreign language competencies.

Surviving Violence, Ambiguity and Oneself: The Experience of Child Protection Workers in Chile

Abstract The challenges of contemporary child welfare practice are well documented in many countries worldwide. The current study enhances this work by reporting the lived experiences of child welfare workers in Chile, who negotiate their practice in a strained political and organisational context. A qualitative methodology was used to understand the complexities of the survival strategies of these workers. Data were collected via multiple individual interviews and group workshop sessions with six workers of different Chilean National Service for Minors’ collaborating organisations. Through a constructivist grounded theory analysis, we identify three major complexities that shape and construct the strategies of survival that the Chilean child welfare workers deploy in a neo-liberalised labour context: (1) Surviving a violent labour context (precariousness and dehumanisation); (2) surviving labour ambiguities (fractures and resistance) and (3) surviving oneself (pain-filled and violence executors’ bodies). We discuss these findings in the context of the scholarly literature and offer implications for policy and macro practice to alter the work conditions of this professional field.

An Investigation of Graduate Students' Views on Information Literacy

Information literacy, which is defined as the ability to access, evaluate, use and communicate information in different forms, has a special importance in every period of individuals' lives. The competencies sought in an information literate individual vary according to the level of education they are in; a linear relationship is established between the level of education and the areas of competence. The rapid development of technology and the subsequent information explosion have revealed the importance of qualified information, and societies have started to need individuals who access the right information, use it, produce and share it, and use technology effectively in these processes. It has become imperative for individuals to access the most up-to-date and accurate information in their own professional field. Information literacy qualifications of graduate students are of great importance in terms of both the studies they will put forward and their self-development. This study was carried out to determine the views of graduate students studying at a university in the 2022-2023 academic year affiliated to the Institute of Educational Sciences on information literacy. The information literacy interview form developed by the researcher was used as a data collection tool. Information literacy interview form developed by the researcher was used as a data collection tool. Content analysis was used in the analysis of the views of 20 postgraduate students affiliated to the Institute of Educational Sciences.Graduate students' views on the dimensions of information literacy were examined in the context of knowing, accessing, evaluating, using, ethical/legal issues. When the results of the research are examined, it is seen that graduate students see information literacy as the ability to use the stages of information literacy, determine the information they need when they encounter a problem situation, the sources of access to information are mostly the internet, question the accuracy of the sources in evaluating information, use information for academic development, and point out the presence of unrealistic information as a problem. In line with these results, it is suggested that information literacy should be added to the content of the research methods in education course, which is one of the courses taken by graduate students, and students should develop the skills of questioning the authenticity of the information obtained from the internet that they use in their academic development.

Interventional Neuroradiology: Why Don't Brazilian Female Physicians Like It?

Abstract Objective Much has been discussed about gender diversity in all professional fields, particularly in medicine. Recent studies showing that there are fewer than ten female professionals in interventional neuroradiology (INR) in a continental country like Brazil, and less than thirty in all of Latin America, have prompted an investigation into the causes of the low numbers of women choosing to follow this medical specialty. This project intended to reveal the reasons through an anonymous form applied to women in the final year of the three medical residencies considered prerequisites for INR in Brazil: neurology, radiology and neurosurgery. Materials and Methods The questionnaire addressed to each of the three fields contemplated the professionals' preference to follow their respective subspecialties, in addition to common considerations that could be deemed barriers to INR. Results Surprisingly, the weak link in the chain was demonstrated to be radiology, which is the exclusive prerequisite residency for training in INR in many countries. However, in Brazil, most doctors who graduate in INR come from Neurosurgery and, secondly, from neurology. These two specialties together account for less than half of the female residents compared to radiology alone. Conclusion All of the following items were already expected: difficulty in reconciling a double shift; employment opportunity; long training time; the lack of female leaders inspiring new generations of doctors; issues involving radiation and motherhood; and still the barriers of misogyny and machismo. But specific studies need to be conducted to find out why very few radiology residents follow INR training in Brazil.

STEM in vocational education and training: The future direction

Vocational education and training (VET) and Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education are two distinct but interconnected forms of education that play complementary roles in preparing individuals for the workforce. This work first discusses the relationship between vocational education and STEM education. The breakdown of students in secondary vocational schools (institutions) by subject categories in China in 2021 illustrates that 63% of students in current vocational education in China engage in STEM-related learning. Vocational education and STEM education have a solid inherent logical connection, but vocational education mainly focuses on training within a specific professional field, lacking the integration and comprehensive approach in STEM education. Furthermore, this work explores whether vocational learning would lose competitiveness due to increased labor mobility. It reveals that VET's competitiveness decreased with increased population mobility. Government policies might consider promoting the integration of vocational education and STEM education, enhancing workforce competitiveness through effective generalization of vocational skills in a STEM education framework.

Students’ Needs Analysis of Business English At ESP Class For Business Administration Department At Nommensen HKBP University

Nowadays, practically all job profession criteria demand job candidates to be proficient in the language of their preferred professional industry, particularly English. This research was conducted to examine the challenges faced by the Business Administration Department, specifically the second-semester students at Nommensen HKBP University, in using English and their need for Business English in ESP classes. It follows Hutchinson and Waters' theory, which consists of target situation needs and learning needs. Target situation needs include "necessities," "lacks," and "wants," while learning needs refer to how learners learn the language. The method used in this research is qualitative. Data was collected through a Semi-structured interview with the lecturer, as well as questionnaires given to the students via Google form. In collecting and analyzing the data, the researcher followed Miles, Huberman, & Saldana's concepts are data collecting, data reduction, data display, and conclusion. The researcher also used some tables and charts to describe and calculate the data accurately. The result of this research showed that Business administration students struggle with English learning due to lack of vocabulary, mispronunciation, and incorrect sentence structure. These issues cause anxiety and hinder effective communication. To improve, students should learn to comprehend reports in curves or tables. On the other hand, Business Administration students need to master four English language skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. 96% prefer an English for Business class to understand its value in their professional field. Lessons should be weekly, small, and include oral presentations, group discussions, and writing.

Information Security Construction of SPOC: Path Selection for Japanese Information Acquisition

INTRODUCTION: In the traditional oral Japanese teaching model, Japanese courses emphasize theoretical knowledge of vocabulary and grammar, with few practical functions, low student interest in learning, and low attendance in class. They have made breakthroughs in information technology, e-commerce, and other professional fields.
 METHODS: A traditional teaching format is used, with the mains taught by teachers, without using learning platforms or offline teaching. Each lesson contains three elements: preschool, instructional practices, and external extensions. A cloud-based classroom learning platform is part of Cyber Chemistry's preschool and out-of-school learning. Classroom instruction consisted primarily of discussions and exchanges between teachers and students, competitive exercises, and visualization of the results of conversations. To test the effectiveness of the SPOC-based model, the authors administered two speaking tests, as well as related questionnaires and interviews, during and at the end of the test.
 RESULTS: Improvements in the intermediate pretest and post-test speaking tests compared to the control group suggest that the Japanese hybrid speaking test model, SPOC, is positively compelling.
 CONCLUSION: The class stimulates students' interest and motivation. It plays an active role in developing good learning practices and improving the learning of spoken Japanese.
