Issues related to the nature of information in the context of the development of a territory growth strategy are presented in the article. A brief analysis of the terms such as information, strategy, plan is made. It is revealed that the information, plan and strategy are complex and fluctuating. Some features of human perception of information are considered. The specificity of the thinking paradigms influence on human perception of information is also presented.The modern world represents sets of emergent properties that are precisely the result of continuous information influence in their essence and generate new states of the system, and therefore new meanings. A strategist interacts with a rapidly changing context; he should be able to make management decisions taking into account the redundant and incomplete nature of the information. These decisions should lead to the achievement of goals. Such a task is not simple at all and requires certain skills in working with information. The method of working with information is infology. It provides a set of relevant procedures that allow you to solve the problem of collecting and processing information at a qualitatively new level. Thus, the algorithms for working with information allow you to collect comprehensive information on the capabilities, needs and resources of the territory and link them into a single plan for achieving the goal. And that means they allow you to improve the quality of planning by reference to the strategic goals of the territories.The strategist becomes a hunter of meanings to a certain extent; this ability allows him to see the general picture of local development from the maximum advantageous position. The strategist begins to possess Femostokl’s unique ability and to know how to “do absolutely right things at the right moment,” that is, to program the desired behavior, involve and sensitize people to achieve a single goal, and then enable these goals to be realized by everyone involved in the process. And this requires not only the information, but its deep understanding and using ability to achieve the goals. Data can become the working information only if you work hard and find meanings that are important for understanding the features of a managed object. Thus, understanding the facts that are behind the reality displays allows you to change the quality of management and development of a territory growth strategy.

The full involvement of local communities in the tourism sector, not only benefits them and the environment in general, but also improves the quality of the tourism experience. Projects imposed from outside and motivated by the pursuit of rapid economic growth often override local needs, conditions and resources, and result in unacceptable environmental, social and cultural costs. Local involvement is crucial to sustainable and appropriate development, which meets the needs of the local people and safeguards their natural and cultural environments. Thus a local development strategy is essential, especially in disadvantaged areas and countries.

Using location-based augmented reality (AR) for pedestrian navigation can greatly improve user action to reduce the travel time. Pedestrian navigation differs in many ways from the conventional navigation system used in a car or other vehicles. A major issue with using location-based AR for navigation to a specific landmark is their quality of usability, especially if the active screen is overcrowded with the augmented POI markers which were overlap each other at the same time. This paper describes the user journey map approach that led to new insights about how users were using location-based AR for navigation. These insights led to a deep understanding of challenges that user must face when using location-based AR application for pedestrian navigation purpose, and more generally, they helped the development team to appreciate the variety of user experience in software requirement specification phase. To prove our concept, a prototype of intuitive location-based AR was built to be compared with existing standard-location based AR. The user evaluation results reveal that the overall functional requirements which are gathered from user journey have same level of success rate criteria when compared with standard location-based AR. Nevertheless, the field study participants highlighted the extended features in our prototype could significantly enhance the user action on locating the right object in particular place when compared with standard location-based AR application (proved with the required time).

Over the past decade, the arsenal of original compositions for the accordion has considerably expanded, but a significant place among the performing repertoire is the genre of translation of works from the repertoire of other instruments, ensembles or orchestras for the accordion. Since the translation of the orchestral repertoire with account of the timbre features of the accordion, has not yet become the subject of musicology research, the task is to elucidation of the main principles of this genre. The combined analysis of translations and executive-methodical recommendations become the basis for a deep understanding of the ideological conception, stylistic features and rethinking of the timbre transformations, and therefore the quality of the performance of the work itself.Translation works for the accordion from the repertoire of the Ukrainian folk instruments orchestra has favorable conditions for many parameters, as demonstrated by Y. Oleksiv "Ukrainian fantasy". The timbre specificity - the existence of a large number of different instrumental groups and voices in the orchestra is successfully transmitted in the accordion translation due to a number of timbre registers of the instrument, the diversity of which allows the most complete transfer of orchestral coloration. The author takes into account the slight difference in the sound of the right and left keyboards of the accordion and demonstrates it in an advantageous applying for translation, creating the effect of a multi-timbre "dialogue". The techniques of playing on the accordion fully reproduce the dynamic gradations of the orchestral sound, as the characteristic feature of such orchestra is a chamber. The author simulates the techniques of sound formation and the specifics of various orchestral instruments. The bandura pinch, the overtones dulcimer "echo", the reed pipe glissando, the violin detache and the articulation variety of instrumental composition of the orchestra composer transmits using a detail palette. Perfect constructive features of the accordion allow you to successfully adapt the multi-layer orchestra texture. In the accordion translations of orchestral compositions, the epic and poetics of folk melodies are transmitted as clearly as possible. This work is aimed at deeper understanding of the content and expressiveness of translated works by the performers. The research can be an impetus for transmissions and their research on the repertoire of the chamber ensemble for the accordion, as well as the translation of pieces for the accordion.

Effective until 2014 in Ukraine, the system of local self-government did not meet the existing needs of society. The functioning of local self-government bodies in most territorial communities did not provide the formation and support of the proper level of quality of life of citizens, necessary for the full development of people, their self-realization, protection of rights, provision of high-quality and affordable administrative, social and other services, did not create a favorable living space in the respective territories. The process of formation and development of the Ukrainian State required urgent reform of the administrative-territorial, political system and the establishment of a democratic institution of public power - local self-government, which is defined as the right and real capacity of a territorial community within the laws and powers to independently solve the issues of local development of their territories. Therefore, the reform of decentralization of power in Ukraine in 2014 was defined as one of the priorities, which provides for the construction of an effective system of territorial organization of power and public management of socio-economic development of territories. A detailed study of the experience of the formation and functioning of local self-government, best practices of the world countries, and in particular the EU countries, which have achieved sustainable development of territories and improved the welfare of their citizens, is relevant for the development of modern Ukraine and its regions and territories, as well as for the formation of its own effective public administration system at the local level.

The idea of “good quality of life” cities was introduced to Poland in 2006, when the Polish National Cittaslow City Network was founded i.a. by Lidzbark Warmiński. In the context of popularizing the idea—slow-style of life—it was decided to undertake research aimed at identifying the influence of the Cittaslow concept on the initiation of actions that have a positive impact on local sustainable development. Referring to the main objective of the study, the hypothesis was accepted stating that membership in the Cittaslow network has a positive impact on the local development of the city, as it is a source of new projects undertaken by the authorities that improve the quality of life of the inhabitants and at the same time are implemented with the participation of local communities. The hypothesis was verified in a survey conducted in 2017 and 2019 among the residents of the city of Lidzbark Warmiński, using a questionnaire. As the research shows and the research of other authors confirms, the quality of life in cities belonging to the Cittaslow network has significantly improved over the last few years. Residents also assessed the degree of satisfaction of their needs and the level of development of the local city against other cities in the region. Obtaining the opinion of residents regarding the Cittaslow network as a direction of local sustainable development, as well as assessing its impact on the quality of life of the urban community turned out to be important from the perspective of further analysis. This issue is important because the idea of the international association Cittaslow is to promote the potential of smaller towns as an alternative to living in big cities, the rush and progressive globalization. Cities in the network are committed to sustainable development by shaping a conscious urban policy, the right relationship between economic growth, the environment and improving the quality of life of residents.

AbstractThe extent to which designers can understand users often determines the quality of design outcomes. A deep understanding of users allows the designers to focus on the right problem and make optimal design decisions, which encouraged designers to empathize with users. However, the current imagination-based empathizing strategy appears to be too susceptible to their previous experience and knowledge, which has been questioned concerning effectiveness and accuracy. On the other hand, Virtual Reality (VR) technology provides an opportunity for designers to gain experience-driven empathy by immersing them in a virtual environment that mimics the users' surroundings as if they are seeing the world from users' eyes. While abundant studies covered empathy VR and empathy for design, limited attention has been paid to the chance of bringing VR, empathy, and design research together. Addressing this gap, this study explored literature across domains, identified major concerns about this approach, synthesized the evidence, and discussed the feasibility and validity of the VR-based empathic design research approach.

This article is very useful for readers because here they can observe, practical education and also academics to understand how to find the right solution in developing the quality of education especially in the era of regional autonomy and autonomy of education by applying various implementation of management principles, namely: good governance, internal and external efficiency of education. Through the application of three approaches, it is expected that: (1) institutional capacity building and all programs in the education sector can be implemented, (2) developing the quality of education through inputs, processes, and outputs based on regional autonomy, (3) benefits and impacts of basic education towards regional autonomy. it can be concluded that some things are efforts that need to be done in managing institutions to improve the quality of education in each region and region throughout the Republic of Indonesia: 1. Efforts to empower and increase institutional capacity based on 8 themes and principles of good governance which are normative rules to realize the entire program of decentralization and regional autonomy especially in the field of education. 2. Efforts to implement aspects of internal education efficiency with a focus on: input, process and output. 3. Efforts to implement external aspects of education by taking into account the benefits and impacts of educational outcomes. Improving the quality of education has not been in line with expectations because it is caused by several factors including the education development strategy that is more "input oriented" and "macro oriented" which tends to be regulated by the central bureaucracy To improve the quality of education in each region through a clear, directed, and effective approach, it is necessary to apply management principles in educational autonomy.

The phenomenon of connected communities shows that the Internet can be a powerful tool in promoting cohesiveness between community actors. Since a community's capability to initiate development projects depends to a significant degree on the quality of the relational framework in which the actors operate, we maintain that it is possible to go beyond the instrumental character of Internet applications and to give a developmental character to processing for designing and developing a collective portal. A learning community is a completed form of connected community that promotes local actors to develop a creative synergy that can yield ideas, collaboration, and development projects.
