The Regional Research Program has potential for being the elite among research programs and to be a high status symbol for those associated with it. That it is not so means that it is not achieving its potential and that it is falling short of the original objectives. Since its inception, the regional research program has been praised and condemned. There appears to be more dissatisfaction than satisfaction with both the administrative procedures and the subject matter content of the program. Control of the program, the administrative structure and its effectiveness have been the subject of much discussion and debate. Some say the program has yielded little, and some of those who defend it do so on the basis that it has enabled researchers to meet and discuss their work, which in itself is worthwhile.

This study aims to describe the improvement of the learning process for writing argumentative paragraphs through a group investigation model for X6 grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Wonomulyo. This type of research is classroom action research which is carried out in two cycles. The subjects in this study were 39 students. Data collection is done by writing paragraphs in the form of argumentation tests and observations. Data were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. The results showed that the number of students who were active in choosing subject matter, exercises in determining facts or evidence that support paragraphs based on observations made, writing argumentative paragraphs, teacher performance in directing students, assigning students to choose subject matter, looking for references then conducting investigations, and writing argumentative paragraphs in the first cycle is 60,16% while in the second cycle it is 80,55%. The results of paragraph learning based on six aspects of scoring include argumentative characteristics, alignment of content with the subject matter, content organization, use of language (effective sentences), accuracy and accuracy of diction, and spelling and reading showed improvement. In the first cycle, the average value of writing argumentative paragraphs obtained was 71,53 with a sufficient score, students who got a score of 75 were 11 students (28,20%). In cycle II, the average value of writing argumentative paragraphs was 81.74 with good scores. Students who got a score of 75 were 33 students (84,16%). This shows that the learning outcomes have met the standard of success, namely 75%.

Subject Matter Content

The article deals with modern views on the concept of “nationally oriented foreign language teaching”, presented in the linguo-didactic discourse of domestic and foreign scholars of the last decades. The author reveals and characterizes its evolution as one of the basic concepts of Russian and Ukrainian language education as foreign languages. It is found that they relate to the subject matter, content, and operational components of this phenomenon. There are significant changes in the views of scholars on taking into account students’ native language in teaching these languages by speakers of languages with different systems. There is a growing interest in didactic and linguistic data processing of the analysis of Chinese and Russian (Ukrainian) languages and their practical implementation. In terms of content, priority is given to culturally oriented and ethno-psychological aspects of mastering foreign language in a monocultural and multicultural educational environment. The innovative approach to this issue is also manifested in the increasing attention of researchers to the peculiarities of cognitive, mental and educational activities of Chinese-speaking students, formed by the national linguistic and methodological tradition, which is radically different from the national communicative and active lingvodidactic paradigm and needs appropriate methodological correction. Prospects for further study of the issues raised in our investigation are related to the research of a number of “new” terms in the terminological field of the basic concept of “nationally oriented foreign language learning”, as well as from the normative and codification side.

Subject Matter Content

“Worn Dresses” is realized as a creative experiment in 2017 at “Radikalno” hall of department “Sculpture” at The University of Veliko Tarnovo. Technically speaking the project is a continuation and development of an author’s method, which has been set and elaborated since 2007 till now. Inspired by elements of collage art, this technique offers unlimited abilities for an interpretation of shaping and spatial models. The conception “Worn Dresses” is a combination of two basic creational ideas. The first one is a synthesis of the subject matter content and the architectonics of visual objects viewed by a precise combination of practical and real social dimensions. The second one aims to create a united literary image of the exhibition, which itself without any negative context, translates the item “absence” as a condition of the dualistic character of Nature. In ability to realize the sensible insight which generates “absence” and “presence” as aims to affirm not just the physical essence of a human, but the humanity in the artistic fact. The experiment is an original shaping solution, an aspect of spatial relationships and author’s intrusion in between the intersection of a piece of art and audience.

Concept Pairs

From a pool of secondary students (n = 161), 20 students were chosen who had high (formal operations) scores and 20 who had low (concrete operations) scores on two paper-and-pencil measures of Piagetian formal reasoning (the Test of Logical Thinking and the Longeot Test). The students made similarity judgments among all possible concept pairs from 13 geometric concepts and 10 mathematical expressions from a unit on ratio, proportion, and similarity. Multidimensional scaling procedures showed that despite idiosyncrasies in individual structures, clear prototypical maps could be derived for both the formal and concrete groups. In addition, formal operational students structured subject matter content significantly more like subject matter experts than concrete operational students did.

Do So

Science documentaries on television aim to provide easy and entertaining access to research findings. To do so, producers need to know how to explain complex content for non-expert audiences in a comprehensible way. At the same time, they have to decide what aspects of a subject might be relevant for viewers, or how the subject matter could be rendered more interesting by employing strategies such as personalisation or emotionalisation. One specific decision concerns the use of terms. Both existing research and journalistic handbooks suggest that terms should be or are, in fact, avoided in popular science contexts. However, there is only little empirical research on the topic. This contribution seeks to test several pre-existing hypotheses on terms in documentaries for adults and show how often terms are used and whether/how they are explained when they appear. Examining terms in four English and four German science documentaries, the analysis points out which communicative resources are used to facilitate the comprehension of terms, and where an explanation seems to focus primarily on entertainment rather than ease of comprehension. The results challenge some of the previous views on terms in popular science communication and reveal that documentaries display highly idiosyncratic strategies when it comes to the use of terms.

French Phonology and Morphology revisited

Sanford Schane’s monograph French Phonology and Morphology, published in 1968, was the first extensive treatment of that subject in a generative framework. Although its merits and faults have been discussed at length in reviews, the scarcety of subsequent contrasting analyses within the same framework would seem to imply that Schane’s study is essentially correct within that framework and/or that the subject matter itself holds no further theoretical interest for generative phonologists. The present paper challenges both of these implications. The discussion focuses on Schane’s formulation of the underlying vocalic system of French. Schane’s assumptions about phonological grammars, his analysis, and his methodology are open to question. Section 1 of this study discusses the concept “rule of grammar” as developed by Schane and considers possible alternatives. Inconsistencies of Schane’s analysis are illustrated in Section 2, while Section 3 demonstrates that the data which should offer the strongest support for Schane’s analysis in fact fail to do so. To the extent that Schane represents current phonological theory and practice, the criticisms voiced here have, of course, a wider application.The discussion focuses on Schane’s formulation of the underlying vocalic system of French.
