Mathematics is one of the subjects taught in elementary schools in the 2013 curriculum as well as in the Freedom to Learn curriculum which is summarized in Thematic. Mathematics is an abstract object that makes mathematics difficult for some elementary school students to understand. the use of teaching aids as a medium for learning mathematics is expected to help improve students' understanding of mathematical concepts. Therefore, it is very appropriate that lecturers from several universities in Aceh feel compelled to accompany these teachers in seminars on the Utilization of Mathematical Learning Media. This activity aims to increase the capacity of teachers in using mathematics learning media, especially visual aids. The method used is the seminar lecture method. The results of this activity indicate that there is an increase in the knowledge and skills of SD Negeri Pertiwi, and Lambarot teachers in compiling the use of mathematics learning media.

Project-Based Blended Learning to Improve Reading Interest and Writing Skills Research Proposal

The purpose of this research was to increase reading interest and research proposal writing skills. The type of research used is classroom action with two cycles. The participants in this study were all seventh-semester physical education students who attended the proposal seminar lecture, totaling 80 students. Data collection techniques used observation guides, questionnaires, and product assessments in the form of research proposals. Data analysis techniques using categories and percentages. Based on the results of data analysis, it was known that in cycle 1 students' interest in reading was in the medium category, and cycle 2 is in the high category. Meanwhile, students' research proposal writing skills in cycle 1 was in the medium category, and in cycle 2 was in the high category. Classical completeness in cycle 1 was 18.75% for reading interest, and 17.5% for research proposal writing skills. Meanwhile, classical completeness in cycle 2 in this study was 81.25% for reading interest, and 82.5% for research proposal writing skills. So it can be concluded that the application of project-based blended learning increased reading interest and research proposal writing skills.

From the (skin) doctor's office to the lecture hall: An innovative, practice-oriented, media-supported teaching project with supra-regional interdisciplinary usage options.

The transfer of practical knowledge and skills is the focus of modern medical teaching (master plan medical studies 2020). The aim of the teaching project is to provide medical students with important dermatological learning goals and contents by using innovative methods. As part of a teaching project funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) at the Department of Dermatology, University Hospital Schleswig-Holstein in Kiel, various new, partly media-supported teaching modules were developed in addition to curricular teaching and optimized by regular acceptance evaluations during the development process. (1.) Professionally created instructional movies present essential techniques for diagnosis and therapy: standardized dermatological whole-body examination, wound smear sampling, performing of biopsies, curettages and excisions as well as skin suturing techniques on exercise material and on patients. (2.) Tutor-based courses offer students the ability to practice these techniques independently. (3.) Seminar lectures show different clinical pictures in university medicine and doctor's offices as well as the important interaction between clinic and doctor's practice in patient care. (4.) One-day internships in a teaching practice convey the activity in this setting. (5.) Seminars on psychodermatology provide insight into the stress caused by the skin disease using the "bio-psychosocial disease model". So far, 282 students have participated in the modules. In 88-100% of the evaluations, there was a desire for further expansion of the new courses and integration into curricular teaching. Our innovative teaching modules resulted in great acceptance by the students. The freely available instructional films were successfully used by other university locations due to networking in the Academic Teaching Forum. One perspective is the supra-regional and sustainable use of our teaching modules and the transfer of the concept to other departments and faculties.

Theme Centered Interaction in Critical Vocational Teacher Education – An Introduction Into an Ethical Founded Method and Model to Strengthen Self-reflexive Autonomy and Socially Responsible Action

Context: The train of thoughts in this contribution is situated in the VET teacher training on an academic level, as it is usual in Germany. Key issue is the pedagogical qualification of the VET teachers and the question of how to give them possibilities to reflect their own biography, their interdependences to the actual cultural and economic environment and their way to choose the pathway to become a VET teacher. How to enable them to argue with their values, fears, strength and weaknesses in their life and especially in leading groups, as they will have to do in classroom management. And at least how to give them an idea of an emancipative, critical and participative way of forming learning situations in which they feel sure and lively to encourage the apprentices and learners in schools to act autonomic and critical in work and besides. This is necessary because of the changes in work and VET in the recent centuries with consequences for workers, learners and curricula as well as the contradictions in that process.Approach: The transformation and the liberalisation of markets and changes of work organisation, the enlargement of tasks in the occupations adds greater meaning to social knowledge and competences, the ability for teamwork and personal development in vocational education. To develop this ability Theme-Centered Interaction (TCI), as a humanistic-psychological approach is used and combined with Critical-Subject-Oriented Vocational Education Theory, inspired by the Critical Theory of the Frankfurt School. VET-teacher students learn in theory and practice to shape their own way to lead themselves and the pupils in the class and to reflect their activities in a critical way of thinking. The paper ends with brief description of seminar lectures with VET teacher students at the University of Rostock where TCI is practiced as one example how we can reach the objectives described before. Findings: The TCI-concept is helpful to set up better teamwork and self-reflection in the group of the learners. It’s a useful way to prepare them for their practical school phase in which TCI is used as reflection model as well.Key message: Universities as learning places in the tradition of enlightenment have to open up spaces in VET teacher development for domination-free communication and participatory learning within the framework of university studies, which can create a distance to a given social reality, enables students to dissociate from collectively developed goals to become critical formers of their working life and teaching.

Seminar Lectures -Three-Role Educational Theater

Основна цел на обучението и в училище и в университета би трябвало да бъде създаването на умение за самостоятелно учене. Съвременното развитие на технологиите и ускореното натрупване на човешкото знание допринасят Ученето през целия живот да бъде неизменна характеристика на професионалния път на днешните ученици и студенти. Умението да се придобиват знания самостоятелно не се създава само и с еднократното изпълнение, например, на една курсова задача. То изисква системно прилагане през целия период на обучение на подходи, които активират и мотивират обучаваните за учене. В настоящата работа представяме резултатите от един вид организация на семинарни лекции по актуални теми, не включени в програмата на дисциплината „Информатика III част“, преподавана на студентите от икономическите специалности на Стопански факултет при Тракийския университет. В организацията на тези занятия, наричани от нас учебен театър, се включват три роли – за всяка тема две съревноваващи се групи, един арбитър, който познава съответната тема, и преподавателят.

The Schmittian Messiah in Agamben'sThe Time That Remains

For Giorgio Agamben, Alain Badiou, and Slavoj Žižek the New Testament writings attributed to Paul have much to say on contemporary debates over politics and religious tradition.1 Unlike other thinkers who have turned to Paul at moments of crisis and innovation, Badiou, Žižek, and Agamben neither write as theologians nor profess Christianity. In what some have called our postsecular present, religious tradition has become a serious category of analysis in circles of political and cultural theory for the first time. Taking the measure of this new intellectual trend calls for careful readings of books on the subject, among the most interesting of which is Agamben’s The Time That Remains, a series of seminar lectures (given in Paris, Verona, and Berkeley during 1998 –99) that explores the influence of Paul’s letters on messianic thought. Weaving in and out of the Greek text of Romans, other New Testament texts, and numerous works of modern political and cultural theory, Agamben argues that Paul’s letters represent the “fundamental messianic text for the Western tradition” (T, p. 1). Agamben, Žižek, and Badiou approach Paul as cultural and political theorists concerned to define his potential for contemporary thought. For Agam-

A peculiar lecture by Ettore Majorana

We give, for the first time, the English translation of a manuscript by Ettore Majorana, which probably corresponds to the text for a seminar lecture delivered at the University of Naples in 1938, where he lectured on theoretical physics. Some passages reveal a physical interpretation of quantum mechanics which anticipates for several years the Feynman approach in terms of path integrals, independent of the underlying mathematical formulation.

Notes on the Augenblick in and Around Jacques Derrida's Reading of Paul Celan's "The Meridian"

AbstractJacques Derrida wrote twice, in 1984 in "Shibboleth" and in 2002 for his Paris seminar lectures, about "The Meridian," Paul Celan's Georg Büchner prize speech that forms the most elaborate exposition of the poet's poetics. In both readings Derrida, in one way or the other, deals with the question of time. In "Shibboleth," at stake is the notion of date; in the seminar lectures, the "other's time." Through the Greek, Christian, and Jewish experiences involved, the present article takes the notion of Augenblick as a fil conducteur.

Romanticism and Contemporary Criticism: The Gauss Seminar and Other Papers

This volume assembles for the first time material written by Paul de Man between 1954 and 1981, including his previously unpublished Gauss Seminar lectures delivered at Princeton in 1967, three papers on romantic and postromantic issues, a commissioned essay on Roland Barthes, and two substantial responses to papers by Frank Kermode and Murray Krieger. 'Romanticism and Contemporary Criticism' represents de Man's reflections on some of the major texts of English, German, and French Romanticism and their reception in twentieth-century literary criticism and theory. The Gauss Seminar lectures in particular convey de Man's consideration of Romanticism as a distinct form of historical consciousness, and illuminate his conviction that this romantic historical had been a powerful influence on our own development of a historical identity. De Man had planned to use the Gauss lectures as a basis for a major historical study of Romanticism, but the volume was never completed and de Man eventually abandoned the project. Drawn from four decades of de Man's career, these essays reflect the transition in the critic's work from the thematics and vocabulary of consciousness and temporality characteristic of his work in the 1960s, to the language-oriented concerns and terminology of his later writings.

The Advanced Study Institute on Statistical Distributions in Scientific Work

Under the auspices of the Scientific Affairs Division of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, the National Research Council of Canada and the United States Army Research Office, the Advanced Study Institute (ASI) on Statistical Distributions in Scientific Work was held at the University of Calgary from 29 July to 10 August 1974 as a satellite program before the International Congress of Mathematicians and the Annual Meeting of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics. The International Statistical Institute and the Indian Statistical Institute co-sponsored the ASI. The Pennsylvania State University and the University of Calgary provided the facilities. Professors G. P. Patil, S. Kotz and J. K. Ord served as scientific directors of the program with Professor Patil assuming the responsibility of its direction from its conception to its conclusion. Professors E. G. Enns, J. K. Wani and P. C. Consul served on the local arrangements committee. The program was a great success and stands out as a very pleasant and fruitful effort. The ASI consisted of three advanced seminars entitled Models and Structures, Model Building and Model Selection, and Characterizations and Applications. The planned activities of the ASI consisted of main lectures and expositions, seminar lectures and study group discussions, tutorials and individual study. The activities also included meetings of editorial committees to discuss editorial matters for the publication of the proceedings, which consist of contributions that have gone through the usual refereeing process. A special session was organized to consider the potential of introducing a course on statistical distributions in scientific modelling in the curriculum of statistics and quantitative studies. The overall perspective for the ASI was provided in his inaugural address by the Institute Director, Professor Patil. The Linnik Memorial inaugural lecture of the Characterizations Conference part of the ASI was given by Professor C. R. Rao.

Science in the State Department: A Practical Imperative

“The ethos of our foreign policy should not be flawed by intellectual parochialism; our policy and outlook need not fall into the crack between the two cultures.” The lecturer, Dr. James R. Killian, was addressing the U.S. Foreign Service Institute's seminar on the interaction between science and technology and foreign affairs. The following article is based upon the seminar lecture; a report on the seminar itself appears on page 43. Dr. Killian is chairman of the MIT Corporation and was appointed by President Eisenhower as the first official science adviser to an American president.
