<p>The line of knowledge runs from the general social, legal, financial and managerial framework. It is necessary to present the object of professional activity, the peculiarities of professional work and the methods for its optimization. Subjects of the survey were 100 dentists who perform treatment of deciduous teeth from the city of Varna, Bulgaria. The individual addressed anonymous survey was fulfilled during educational, clinical and organization meetings at the Faculty of Dental Medicine-Varna and on the territory of the city of Varna. The interviewed dentists encounter difficulties with the diagnosis of the initial dental caries in primary dentition. The dentists included in the survey rely mainly on their theoretical and practical experience and routine clinical methods for non-invasive treatment of the initial dental caries. Work experience and the specialty do not have a significant impact on the awareness of dentists about the new criteria related to the diagnosis and prevention of dental caries in the primary dentition. The age, work experience and specialty of dentists are factors for their awareness of the new approaches to treatment of children, as doctors up to 30 years of age, with a recognized specialty and work experience up to five years are more informed.</p>

The article analyzes the problem of professionalization of the individual in pedagogical activity. The results of an empirical study of the ideas of teachers of different ages about the object of their professional activity are presented. It is shown that at each stage of professionalization, with an increase in the length of teaching experience, the assessment of the attitude to time changes, and through this – the assessment of the individual's attitude to the surrounding reality in General, as well as to himself, his experience and future prospects. Significant relationships between indicators of teachers ' perceptions of the object of professional activity and indicators of the time perspective of teachers of different ages are shown. The study involved 148 College teachers. Work experience varies from 1 year to 40 years. Age limits from 20 to 63 years. To confirm the research hypothesis that there may be significant relationships between professional ideas and time perspectives among teachers of different ages, we used a set of methods, including: "Questionnaire aimed at the study of ideas about the object of activity (E. I. Rogova)," F. Zimbardo's time perspective Questionnaire (ZTPI)". Methods of mathematical and statistical processing, presentation of the obtained data: descriptive statistics, determination of the reliability of differences: according to the Kruskal-Wallace criterion. Empirically, it is established that there are significant relationships between the assessment of attitudes to time and ideas about the object of activity in teachers of different ages.

This research paper relates to a number of works by Josef Gočár, a Bohemian architect who was active in a time period between “Cubist” vanguardism and “Rationalist” modernism. The theme regards the search for a general method which evaluates the key elements of the structure of space in architectural design. The main asset of architectural composition has traditionally been the close association between the syntactic order of the elements and a semantic perception of space. The aim of this essay is to explore the relation between the role of the experimental design regarding the multiple and changeable architectural experience and the creative process of architectural work. The methodological experience hereby demonstrated refers to a specific case study that belongs to the scientific research carried out by Gočár and his researchers’ group at the Prague Fine Arts Academy (AVU). His work is hereby re-interpreted in an effort to explore the experiential contribution to the architectural design discipline, and the figurative aspect, by reexamining various characteristics of his practical experience as an architect involved in the civic priorities of the city, from the scale of urban settlement to the individual design work.

The article aims at developing the essence of the concept of reengineering and highlighting its characteristics. Various approaches to the interpretation of this concept have been considered from a historical viewpoint. It has been found out that modern scientists consider this concept from different positions, e.g. as a conceptual and methodological approach, as philosophy of activity, as skills, as a method of business management, as a concept of change, as a method of restructuring, as a tool for business efficiency, as a process, as a type and sphere of professional activity, etc. At the same time, taking into account the instruments of morphological analysis; identifying the advantages and disadvantages of each of the approaches to understand the meaning of "reengineering"; as well as studying practical experience; and finally, drawing general conclusions from scientific research on this issue have allowed the author to substantiate the expediency of interpreting reengineering as a direction of management activities aimed at restructuring business processes at an enterprise radically to achieve the established efficiency criteria. The main business components have been identified and characterized, in relation to and in the context of which the need to use reengineering instruments can be considered. The prevailing components of reengineering in the activity of enterprises have been analyzed. To specify the essence of the "reengineering" concept, its characteristic features are highlighted, namely: the individual nature of work and services performed (provided) within it; dependence of the content and nature of reengineering on the features of business entity; significant influence of the competence of business entities responsible for reengineering on its effectiveness; coverage by reengineering of both traditional and innovative business processes; an opportunity for business entities to solve a wide range of problems through using reengineering; the difficulty of establishing clear and unambiguous criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of reengineering in the initial stages of its implementation; the temporary nature of the relationship between the parties involved in the reengineering project implementation; relative separation of reengineering from the current production and economic activities of a company; the possibility of applying reengineering to various business processes at an enterprise; the necessity to make initial investments in the performance of work (services) within an reengineering project.

Purpose – The purpose of this study is to look at the experiences of university academic staff setting up a small computer games studio to provide work placement opportunities for undergraduate students and the supporting role of industry. Design/methodology/approach – The case study uses sense making to explore the boundaries between “simulated” and “real” work in an educational setting. Findings – For students and teachers to work together in a commercial setting, relationships have to be reconstructed. Teaching focusses on developing the individual and personal attainment, the work environment prioritises the team so that organisational and business needs are met. Differences in culture and working practices between industry and academia and the organisational constraints of a university, present challenges for academic staff engaged in enterprise. Research limitations/implications – The authors recognise the limitations of a single institution case study and intend further investigation into factors around employability, enterprise education and the availability of work experience for students studying in the creative technologies including experiences in other institutions. Practical implications – Practical experience and business knowledge gained through the studio development process by the student and staff, has informed the curriculum through the introduction of team-working modules. The studio provides a unique interface between the university and games industry partners. Originality/value – The study shows the value of a university-based games studio in providing work experience for students and enhancing employability and provides insights into university/industry partnering.

Dental caries is the most prevalent oral disease that continues to affect almost every country in the world. The contemporary management of dental caries focuses on non-restorative, non-invasive, and micro-invasive treatment approaches that arrest or reverse the caries process at a lesion level and reduce the loss of sound tooth structure. One of these approaches is the employment of caries arresting agents that possess antibacterial and remineralizing properties. Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) has drawn significant attention as an efficient caries arresting agent in children and adults. The major limitation with the use of SDF is the dark black staining of the carious tissue that compromises the esthetics. Silver ions are known for their antimicrobial effects, and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have the added advantage that it increases the surface area for exposure to the microbes. Literature reports that AgNPs have antimicrobial potential against predominant cariogenic flora. It has led to the development of nanosilver fluoride (NSF), a new colloid based on AgNPs, chitosan, and fluoride. It has shown to overcome the clinical limitations of SDF as it does not cause carious lesion staining. However, the current scientific literature lacks a comprehensive review of the benefits of using NSF for caries prevention and arrest. Thus, the purpose of this paper was to review the studies and clinical trials on NSF as a caries arresting agent, including antibacterial actions and modulation of the demineralization-remineralization balance.

Определяются и теоретически обосновываются факторы подготовки студентов педагогического вуза к проявлению заботы в процессе их будущей профессиональной деятельности. Процесс подготовки будущих учителей к проявлению заботы включает в себя внутренние и внешие факторы. Внутренние факторы связаны с личностными особенностями и субъектным опытом студентов-педагогов, внешние – с содержанием и организацией образовательного процесса в вузе. Обусловлена необходимость определения теоретико-методологических основ подготовки будущих учителей к проявлению заботы, интерпретация которой затрагивает этические, онтологические и экзистенциальные аспекты. Практическая значимость исследования заключается в том, что определенные факторы, с одной стороны, могут выступать в качестве методологической основы для построения современных педагогических исследований, а с другой – быть включены в практику современного образования в высшей школе. В статье использованы аналитический и синтетический методы исследования. The article defines and theoretically substantiates the factors of preparation of students of a pedagogical University to show care in the process of their future professional activity. As a result, it is determined that the process of preparing future teachers for caring includes internal and external factors, namely: the personal meaning of the knowledge acquired by students and the practical experience of humane interaction; the subjective experience of the individual; social and cognitive activity of students; the content of education, which includes knowledge of existential philosophy, humanistic pedagogy and psychology; organization of the educational process that models the social and subject content of future professional activities; creation of dialogical interaction between teachers and students. The relevance of the research is primarily due to the need to determine the theoretical and methodological foundations of training future teachers to show care, the interpretation of which affects ethical, ontological and existential aspects. The practical significance of the research lies in the fact that certain factors, on the one hand, can act as a methodological basis for building modern pedagogical research, and on the other hand, can be included in the practice of modern education in higher education. The article uses analytical and synthetic research methods.

The article analyzes pedagogical ideas and practical experience in organizing the interaction of rural schools and families, proposed in the works of famous teacher-innovator Professor S. A. Rachinsky. The possibilities for such interaction proposed in the works of the teacher are studied, a comparative analysis of the ideas of Rachinsky and the official doctrines of the Ministry of Public Education is carried out, the peculiarities of the implementation of the ideas of the teacher in practice are indicated, which provides for taking into account the individual characteristics of teaching and raising children from a peasant environment in a rural boarding school with the organization of practice-oriented labor education of trainees, as well as the formation of their knowledge, skills and abilities in the field of certain types of professional activity, focused on their future work in rural environment. It is indicated that thanks to Rachinsky's activity, the ideas of humanistic upbringing of children based on national traditions penetrated into the environment of the peasantry, which for centuries maintained conservative ideas about family upbringing of children, which assumed a strict hierarchy of child-parent relationships, reliance on community values, authoritarian style of parental behavior and recognition of the need for unconditional subordination of children to the will of their parents. Broad socio-cultural and educational activities of S. A. Rachinsky in rural environment, the opening of schools by him contributed to the formation of a new type of relationship between older and younger family members based on mutual respect and recognition of the child's right to realize his personal potential in society, thereby in a certain way humanizing the relationship between older and younger family members.

Despite the reduction in the prevalence of dental caries, very little is known about the prevalence of the disease, especially in deciduous teeth, in small Brazilian cities (<20,000 inhabitants). The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of dental caries in children aged 3 and 5 years of age in the city of Cambira - State of Parana. All children that participated in the national vaccination campaign against poliomyelitis in 2002 at the two basic health units of the city were examined. The campaign covered 99.5% of the population aged 1 to 5 years. Two previously trained and calibrated dentists performed the clinical examinations after the children brushed their teeth and recorded their caries experience by means of the dmf index. The results showed that there was no statistically significant difference in the prevalence of the disease between the male and female genders and between the rural and urban zones. At the age of 3, 68.50% of the children were caries-free, compared to 31.10% at the age of 5. In the total population, 11.19% of the children accounted for 50.86% of the teeth affected by dental caries. The dmf index at 3 and 5 years in the study population was 2.10 and 3.51, respectively. These data showed that the city has not yet reached the goals proposed by the WHO for the year 2000, what indicates the need for greater investment in programs aimed to prevention and control of the disease.

The article gives a criminological description of a criminal who abuses his powers in providing public services. It is analyzed the state of domestic and foreign criminological researches concerning definition of this person concept as one of the fundamental elements of the criminological characteristic. Through a research of official statistics and court verdicts, the authors present a criminological portrait of a subject of criminal offense under the Article 365 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. The characteristics are given regarding the main features and peculiarities of a criminal’s personality formation in the conditions of professional activity and the main determinants of the formation of his socially harmful, deformed legal consciousness. On the basis of the statistical data research on persons committing a criminal offense under the Article 365 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, the main criminological characteristics of the offender are given in the article, including socio-demographic one (sex, age, education, place of birth, residence), socio-role (social) functions of the individual, belonging to a certain social group, interaction with other social groups, etc.), moral, psychological, emotional characteristics. The mechanism of interaction of social and biological aspects in a criminal is also revealed, and a criminal person is classified into separate types (according to socio-demographic data, socio-economic indicators, citizenship, a person’ state at the time of committing a criminal offense, etc.). It is established that the socio-demographic characteristics of persons abusing powers in providing public services, due to legal status, qualification requirements for the profession, all subjects of the criminal offense are citizens of Ukraine, who have, as a rule, higher education, necessary work experience in professional activities and who have received permission from the state to conduct public services, are characterized by a change in the motivational component and the transformation of value orientation, deviated from official discipline and the transformation of a person from law-abiding to a criminal one. Key words: criminological characteristics, a criminal, abuse of power, public services, persons providing public services.
