Teaching of the Sciences recently emphasizes more than in the past the importance of the student’s experience in inquiry, in different places in the world in general and in Israel in particular. This article describes the process of scientific inquiry and the change of the perception of the role, both of the student and of the traditional teacher, in the performance of the inquiry process. The article presents different initiatives that integrate the learning of inquiry in the teaching of physics in the high school in Israel. These initiatives show that the inquiry laboratories have the potential to promote meaningful learning among the students, to increase the depth of their understanding of the scientific concepts and the understanding of the nature of science. The article focuses on ‘Inquiry Physics’ program for students and presents the goals, the target audience, the time framework, and the structure of this program. The program aims to assemble the different initiatives under one framework and to provide them with an appropriate place in the teaching of physics. The learning method of inquiry is now fledgling in the State of Israel and mainly in the knowledge realm of physics. Therefore, exposure to this program may contribute to the body of knowledge on the characteristics of learning and teaching through inquiry in general and on the teaching of physics in particular.

The use of plants to prevent and treat illnesses has been known since time immemorial. Blackseed has been used in different civilizations around the world for centuries. The curative properties of blackseed were mentioned in the Bible and further elaborated on by Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) as “Hold on to the use of blackseed, as it has a remedy for every illness except death”. Extensive research conducted over the past century into the phytochemistry of blackseed has identified many active ingredients and confirmed its pharmacological action in the treatment of a vast range of illness conditions across the different systems of the body, including the prevention and treatment of cancer, and optimum functioning of the immune system. Furthermore, the Tibb philosophical principles highlight the ability of the body’s inherent self-healing capacity, known as Physis, and the intricate functioning of the human body, based on the temperamental and humoral theory. This paper emphasizes the importance of Physis, and its role in the maintenance and restoration of health with the regular intake of blackseed, highlighting why blackseed can be a cure for all illnesses except death. Keywords: Blackseed, phytochemistry, pharmacological action, Tibb philosophical principles.

Husserl suggests that we establish our world through our flesh “as a child.” This insight does not just send us back to the past of our existence, but opens up onto our present. The in-fans is one who does not speak but constitutes the world by means of the body. It is the same with Christ resurrected in his flesh, recognised by the manner of being in his body (Mary Magdalene at the tomb, doubting Thomas, the disciples at the lakeside). To enter the kingdom “as a child” or like the “little children” thus sends us back to a constant experience of the flesh, theologically transformed and waiting for the glory.

Just like any other area in the world, which is quickly changing and converting in line with the scientific and technological developments, the models, approaches, and paradigms set forth as elements of learning and teaching have also undergone alterations and transformations from past to present. While the learning-teaching theories and approaches in the last century, which are based on perennialist and essentialist education philosophies and positivism paradigm, were deeming the learners as passive receivers of external stimuli and focused on the observable and measurable behaviors, the learning-teaching theories and approaches in our century, which are developed around the progressivism and re-constructionism philosophies and post-positivism paradigm, have an understanding that allocates the responsibility to the learner and adopts a lifelong learning by doing and experiencing. In this chapter, a general outlook on the learning and teaching theories and approaches will be briefly carried out.

Abstract This case study extends Elligan’s (2000, 2004) Rap Therapy model to explore the pedagogical usefulness of contemporary rap music. Methodologically, the authors borrow the testimonio from Latina Feminist Scholarship, to explore the ways in which young people participating in a summer literacy program analyzed their lives and the world through rap music; how rap music supported their healing; and how rap music was used as a pedagogical tool. Over the course of four months the co-authors of this study created and analyzed 17 co-written testimonios for their generative themes. The authors conclude with a presentation of The (Re) mix—a rap-centered pedagogical framework. The (Re) mix is made up of three, interconnected pillars. One, contemporary rap music (re)tells the experience(s) of the dispossessed. It helps shift the blame for oppression in the world towards the structures of society. Second, contemporary rap music (re)affirms young peoples’ existence. It provides them with an imaginative environment to imagine a more just world. Third, contemporary rap music (re)stores our humanity. It is a tool to name, connect, and move beyond our pain, creating a context for healing as individuals in a collective society. The authors hope that findings of this study empower other educators to infuse contemporary rap music into their pedagogies as a method for students to better read and write the world, adding to the body of knowledge related to critical media literacy.

Purpose – This paper aims to conduct a systematic review of the literature on supply chain collaboration published over a 10-year period from 2005 to 2014. It explores the nature and extent of research undertaken to identify key themes emerging in the field and gaps that need to be addressed. Design/methodology/approach – The authors review a sample of 207 articles from 69 journals, after using an iterative cycle of defining appropriate search keywords, searching the literature and conducting the analysis. Findings – Key themes include the meaning of collaboration; considerations for supply chain collaboration theory; emerging areas in collaboration for sustainability, technology-enabled supply chains and humanitarian supply chains; and the need for a more holistic approach, multi-tier perspectives and research into B2C collaborations. Research limitations/implications – The paper provides discussion and scope for future research into the area which would contribute to the field tremendously. Originality/value – There have been very few reviews in the past on supply chain collaboration, and this is one of the first extensive reviews conducted to address how well the body of knowledge on supply chain collaboration corresponds with our contemporary society.

The Psychodrama Program at Saint Elizabeths Hospital (SEH) was founded by J. L. Moreno, MD, and contributed to the profession for 65 years. A strong case can be made that, next to the Moreno Institute, the SEH psychodrama program was the most influential center for psychodrama in the United States and the world. This article describes those contributions, including training 16% of all certified psychodramatists; enhancing and advancing the body of knowledge base through more than 50 peer-reviewed published articles or book chapters; pioneering the use of psychodrama in law enforcement and criminal justice; and its trainees making significant contributions to the theory and practice of psychodrama including but not limited to founding psychodrama in Australia and New Zealand.

From the vantage point of mid-1970s, the author looks back a hundred years, to see the global social change that occurred during this period in perspective, and then forward a hundred years, to be able to foresee where the global order may be heading. By choosing this particular vantage point, she emphasizes the transitional nature of the 1970s, when the seed is being sown but the sprout is yet to show up. And by choosing a 200-year time-frame, she recognizes that a period of less than 100 years is apt to distort the view of the past with one's prejudices as it is apt to colour the view of the future with one's wishes. Arising from the experience of colonialism and decolonization syndrome, both North and South have entered a phase of prolonged crisis that may as well help as hinder both in meeting it with the right response. There are, however, signs that a process of what is at once learning and teaching is under way - in other words, a dialogue as between equals - which, when brought to fructification, may indeed usher in a new global order. The author takes a hundred-year leap forward for a look-see of the world as it might be in the year 2075.

The International Union for the Conservation of Nature World Parks Congress is held once a decade, and brings together thousands of the world’s experts on protected areas. In 2014, the Sydney World Parks Congress and the parallel event, Global Eco, provided a platform for 125 presentations relating to tourism and visitation. This paper presents a synthesis of the body of work shared at Sydney, including some of the cutting-edge issues, best practices, and inspiring initiatives relating to sustainable tourism. In particular, it compares issues that were highlighted at the 2003 World Parks Congress, and how they have evolved and progressed over the past decade. The paper highlights the role of different stakeholders from different corners of the world in promoting sustainable tourism practices. It also considers the relevance of tourism to the themes of the World Parks Congress, and how the sector is reflected within the official records of the 2003 and 2014 World Parks Congress. Looking forward to the next 10 years, the paper reflects on specific challenges, gaps in knowledge, and areas for further research and outreach.

Ключові слова: переписи єврейського населення, Брацлавське воєводство, Уманщина, кагальні округи, Уманський кагальний округ. Анотація Стаття містить узагальнені підрахунки єврейства Уманщини другої половини XVIII ст., які здійснені автором на основі опублікованих істориком Іваном Каманіним матеріалів шести переписів податного єврейського населення, що мешкало на території чотирьох воєводств Речі Посполитої – Київського, Волинського, Подільського, Брацлавського. З матеріалів переписів вибрано населені пункти, єврейське населення яких складало Уманський, Соколівський, Теплицький кагальні округи. Систематизовані по кожному перепису цифрові показники кількості єврейського податного населення дали можливість визначити основні тенденції динаміки чисельності єврейського населення Уманщини другої половини XVIII ст. Зважаючи на певну умовність підрахунків (переписи податного населення це далеко не повні демографічні показники), все ж вдалося виявити динаміку збільшення кількості єврейства на Уманщині. Узагальнені і унаочнені в таблицях показники кількості євреїв зазначеного регіону показують, що представники єврейського етносу здавна мешкали в місті Умані та містечках і селах Уманщини. Упродовж другої половини XVIII ст. місто Умань та Уманський кагальний округ були серед найбільш густонаселених в Брацлавському воєводстві. Представлені у таблицях підрахунки уможливлюють ілюстрацію динаміки зростання чисельності єврейського населення Уманщини. Менше як за три десятиліття, з 1764 по 1791 рік, частка євреїв Уманщини серед всього єврейського населення воєводства зросла з 2,18% до 42,80%. Навіть фрагментарність матеріалів переписів не заважає заключити, що у другій половині XVIII ст. чисельність євреїв, які мешкали на Уманщині, постійно збільшувалась. Як свідчать виокремленні з матеріалів переписів єврейського податного населення і зіставлені відомості по Брацлавському воєводству, провідною тенденцією динаміки чисельності євреїв було збільшення їх кількості. Попри те, що кожен із шести переписів (1764 р., 1776 р., 1778 р., 1787 р., 1790 і 1791 роки) містить відомості з різної кількості міст, містечок і сіл, і що у цих типах населених пунктів зафіксована різна чисельність мешканців євреїв, все ж середня кількість податного єврейства на одне місто, містечко, село від перепису до перепису збільшувалась. Чіткіше прослідковується збільшення міського єврейства, менше містечкового і ще менше сільського. Матеріали шести переписів дали можливість здійснити підрахунки питомої ваги податного єврейства міста Умані та Уманського кагального округу у відношенні до чисельності єврейства Брацлавського воєводства. Виявилося, що показники питомої ваги євреїв Уманського кагального округу до єврейства воєводства зросли від 2,18% у 1764 р. до 42,80% у 1791 р. А аналогічні показники по місту Умані зростали від 1,48% до 20,4%. І розуміючи, що переписи податного населення це не повна демографічна статистика, все ж варто зауважити, що здійснені підрахунки показують позитивну динаміку збільшення єврейства на Уманщині у другій половині XVIII ст. Систематизовані у статті матеріали, як і локалізовані на території Уманщини населені пункти з вживаними у XVIII ст. назвами, зацікавлять дослідників локальної історії, краєзнавців, аспірантів. Викладений у статті матеріал поверне до наукового обігу відомості про населення Уманщини, яке завжди було поліетнічним. Також систематизовані відомості і здійснені підрахунки сприятимуть розширенню хронологічних рамок краєзнавчих досліджень. Посилання Dashkevych, 1992 – Dashkevych Y.
