The aim of this paper is to draw some conclusions from a long‑term project inspired by the so‑called Mock trials experienced in the USA and applied into the Czech system of law education of students at the Faculty of Economics of the University of South Bohemia. The project involves a simulation of insolvency proceedings in case of a company bankruptcy. The students play roles of the various participants in the insolvency proceedings and learn very relevant but rather complicated process of insolvency. The results of the second academic year involve re‑testing of students included in the SIP 1.0 (Simulation of Insolvency Proceedings 2015/2016) in order to assess if the learning experience has the long‑term impact and comparison with the new group of students that undergone the SIP 2.0 (Simulation of Insolvency Proceedings 2016/2017).

The main aim of this paper is to quantify students’ learning outcomes from a pilot project inspired by Mock trials developed in the USA and applied into the Czech system of law education of students of business disciplines. The pilot project involved a simulation of insolvency proceedings where the students played roles of various participants. The learning outcomes were evaluated in accordance to Bloom’s taxonomy of learning objectives and findings support previous studies on this topic. Our results generally confirm the findings of various studies saying that the teaching of basic concepts and terminology is more effective in the form of lectures and that main simulation as a pedagogy outcomes are in the affective and psychomotor domains. However, the differences in cognitive results of our students are very small as measured by an anonymous final test, which suggests that there are more factors to be considered and further studied. The results also show that the students prefer the simulation method to the traditional lectures and perceive it as an efficient learning experience with long‑term impact on their learning as well as attitudes and skills. Such a study has not been done in the Czech environment and the findings enrich both business and law education theory and practice.

Children are individual figures who are undergoing a process of very rapid development for life and organization which is a physical and spiritual unity that is intact with all its biological and psychological structures and devices so that it becomes a unique figure. Children experience a fundamental development process which means that development experiences at an early age can have a strong and long-term effect so that they underlie the child's subsequent developmental processes. Every child has a number of potential, both physical, biological, cognitive, and social emotional potential. The design of this study uses class action research (Classroom Action Research) with two cycles, where each cycle consists of four stages: planning, implementation, observation and reflection, while the instrument uses observation and documentation. The subjects of this study were 25 children of Group A in Mentari Harapan Blimbing Paciran Lamongan in the Academic Year of 2017/2018. Data analysis was carried out by means of descriptive qualitative with 65% individual completeness and 85% grade completeness. In this section, it can be concluded that, media playing geometry dice can improve numeracy skills in children in group A Mentari Harapan Blimbing Paciran Lamongan Academic Year 2017/2018, this is evident from the results of the pre-survey research with grade completeness reaching 59.2%, at Cycle I completeness grade 72% and in Cycle II completeness reaches 88.4%.

Over the last few decades, the term ‘multiculturalism’ has been in debate. This is not only because of issues surrounding cultural diversity, racism, or ‘the minority versus the majority’, but also because of religious differences, especially regarding Muslims in the West. Many queries have been raised about the inclusion of Muslims in European society as they seem to be barbaric and alien, especially after the events of 9/11 in the USA and 7/7 in London. This paper discusses the various complex debates surrounding the term ‘multiculturalism’ in the work of political philosophers like Tariq Modood, Bhikhu Parekh, Will Kymlicka, and others. It first introduces the term ‘multiculturalism’ as interpreted by different scholars and discusses the reasons for its current retreat. Multiculturalism is said to be challenging for religious groups, especially Muslims, because of its incompatibility with liberalism, considered to be the key element of Western civilisation. Therefore, this paper attempts to describe multiculturalism’s relationship with citizenship and the long-term effect of national identity on civil society. It also discusses some basic concepts, like equality and dialogue, in relation to multiculturalism and tries to bring out the differences between liberal equality and the equality experienced under multiculturalism. This paper concludes with some policy recommendations for the adjustment of illiberal minorities (Muslims) within liberal societies (Europe) in the present world of super-diversity.

The interprofessional education (IPE) simulation literature lacks research assessing long-term IPE outcomes. During the 2018-19 and 2019-20 academic year, third year and fourth year medical students, respectively, engaged in an IPE simulation experience focused on cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Students completed the Interprofessional Collaborative Competencies Attainment Survey. There was a statistically significant positive change (p<0.05) in student perceptions of their interprofessional collaborative skills immediately following a single IPE simulation activity for both third and fourth year students. However, a statistically significant decline in means was noted from third year post-questions to fourth year pre-questions. A single annual IPE simulation activity may not be sufficient to support students in building confidence in their collaborative skills without regression.

Types Of Change

Mummies are often excavated from dry tombs in xeric countries and transported to humid exhibits in mesic countries. When this happens, specific changes are likely to occur that threaten the long–term stability on mummies. We review our experiences in the University of Nebraska State Museum in the USA and the Museu Nacional in Brazil with regard to Andean mummies. We have observed several types of change that damages mummies. In some cases moisture is absorbed by the mummy and weakens brittle tissues. In other cases, moisture exudes from the mummies. In a few cases, decomposition occurs and necessitates intervention. The threats of humid museums are summarized and recommendations made for preserving mummies.

Long Term Impact

Currently European Union Allowances (EUA) and secondary Certified Emission Reduction (sCER) have become two dominant carbon trading assets for investors and their linkage attracts much attention from academia and practitioners in recent years. Under this circumstance, we use the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) approach to decompose the two carbon futures contract prices and discuss their correlation from the multi-frequency perspective. The empirical results indicate that, first, the EUA and sCER futures price movements can be divided into those triggered by the long-term, medium-term and short-term market impacts. Second, the price movements in the EUA and sCER futures markets are primarily caused by the long-term impact, while the short-term impact can only explain a small fraction. Finally, the long-term (short-term) effect on EUA prices is statistically uncorrelated with the short-term (long-term) effect of sCER prices, and there is a medium or strong lead-and-lag correlation between the EUA and sCER price components with the same time scales. These results may provide some important insights of price forecast and arbitraging activities for carbon futures market investors, analysts and regulators.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to explore the potential of creativity in work-based research and practice to yield deeper understanding of practice situations. Unexpected insights can lead one (or a team) to identify new approaches, tackling workplace issues differently, leading to unexpected outcomes of long-term impact.Design/methodology/approachThis paper draws on work conducted for a doctoral thesis, investigating the impact of work-based learning for recent masters graduates of a work-based learning programme. Fiction was incorporated into analysis of the data, creating play scripts to represent key aspects of the researcher's perceptions and interpretations for each participant.FindingsResearch participants experienced personal, professional and organisational impact, although there was considerable variability between individuals. Additionally, societal impact was wished for and/or effected. The approach to representation of analysis, which involved fictionalising participants' experiences, created a strong Thirdspace liminality. This appeared to deepen awareness and understanding.Research limitations/implicationsSuch approaches can transform the researcher's perspective, prompting insights which lead to further adventure and development in work-based research and practice.Practical implicationsManagers and employees taking creative approaches in the workplace can prompt wide-ranging development and, with professional judgement, be constructive.Social implicationsManagers and employees taking creative approaches in the workplace can prompt wide-ranging development and, with professional judgement, be constructive.Originality/valueThe creation of play scripts, representing an interpretation of participants' stories about their work-based learning experience, is an innovative feature of this work.
