The analysis of a model of the German Chambers of Commerce helps to explore the assumption, that along with consulting, expert function (scientific and analytical), viz. collecting of empirical data (business surveys and interviews with entrepreneurs), analytics (preparation of analytical reviews for member firms), expert networking (joint projects with scientific institutions; holding events with the involvement of practicing experts and economic researchers) is one of its key activities. Four main directions are formulated in this area: data collection, interaction with researchers (preparation of analytics), dissemination, and the use of the results on decision-making level (regional/federal government) in order to protect business interests. In conclusion, the author highlights a number of relevant principles for chamber-nets developing in RF and other EAEU countries.

This article explores the role of social media platforms in transnational activism by examining the case of Avaaz.org, an international advocacy organization aiming to bring people-powered politics to global decision-making. Focusing on the Avaaz website, its channel on YouTube, its page on Facebook and its profile page on MySpace, the article investigates the affordances of these platforms for identity-building, bonding, and engagement. The empirical data is derived from features analysis of the selected web platforms, as well as textual analysis of the comments posted by users. The findings show that while social media platforms make individual voices more visible, their design helps Avaaz to maintain a coherent collective voice. In terms of bonding, platforms allow individual activists to communicate with the organization and to spread its message to their existing social networks, but opportunities for private interpersonal communication with other Avaaz supporters are limited.

This research was conducted because of the low ability of children in manipulative motion. The purpose of this study was to obtain empirical data about the Effects of Playing Small Plastic Balls on Children's Manipulative Motion Capabilities. The research method used is quantitative research with one group pretest posttest design. Data collection techniques used are performance tests. The results showed the average value of the pretest or before treatment was 11.05 and the average value of the posttest after treatment was 36.80. Hypothesis testing using non-parametric statistics in this case is the Wilcoxon test. The basis for decision making in the Wilcoxon test is, if the Asymp.sig value <0.05, then H1 is accepted and if the Asymp.sig value> 0.05, then H1 is rejected and based on test output statistics, it is known asymp.sig.n ( 2-tailed) worth 0,000.

In this essay, Rachel Schachter and Donald Freeman present the familiar problem in studying and improving teaching: how to connect what teachers know and think with what they do as they teach. They outline how research on the public and private worlds of teaching has become bifurcated, with the private side of the work often disconnected from observable practices, and contend that focusing on how public actions and private reasoning are connected is crucial to more fully understanding teaching. They revisit stimulated recall as a research procedure that connects the public and private in teaching, reviewing how it has been used in studying teachers' decision-making and questioning assumptions that generally frame the procedure as a means of data collection. This critique distinguishes stimulated recall as a procedure for collecting data from the claims and the justifications on which it is based. In shifting the basis of the approach, Schachter and Freeman argue that the procedure offers a practical vehicle for researchers to use in both connecting the two worlds and repositioning the role of teachers in the study of their work.
