The Impact

The paper presents materials of a workshop on the role of computer technologies in early and preschool childhood. Among the participants of the workshop were specialists in computer games, researchers and practitioners working with children of that age (psychologists, psychiatrists, pediatricians and others). Almost everybody agreed that the topic of the workshop was highly relevant. Recent sociological studies show that computer technologies have literally infiltrated early childhood and even infancy. Examples of computer games for infants, toddlers and preschoolers were demonstrated at the workshop, as well as the outcomes of a pilot comparative research on child activity with ‘real’ and electronic materials. The participants discussed the impact of computer games on the development of young children, the role of parents in introducing computers to children, and possible criteria in the evaluation of computer games for children. It was acknowledged that there is an obvious need for a specific scientific attitude that would help analyse the current situation.

This study analyzes the role of residents in urban tourist destinations affected by the increase in tourist flows, which have generated various problems such as tourism, gentrification and the emergence of tourism as a threat to residents. The role of residents in tourist destinations has not been analyzed regularly during the development process of destinations. We study two cases of historic centers in European cities, with the aim of comparing tourism problems, which are common to most European urban destinations. This study was conducted by administering surveys amongst residents of these historic centers (378 in Málaga, Spain, and 380 in Gdansk, Poland). These cities show a similar demographic size and urban characteristics. This is the first comparative research on tourism-phobia and gentrification in destinations, a field of analysis that is still not studied much. We develop specific scales to measure gentrification and tourism-phobia; moreover, we study the impact of some tourist problems that affect residents (noise, dirt, occupation of public spaces, etc.), and we show the spatial distribution of tourism-phobia. The same analysis instruments are used for both cities. The results of this study show that the tourism-phobia situation is different in the analyzed destinations. It is more intense in the case of Málaga than in Gdansk. The two historic centers are especially affected by the processes of increased tourist flows and the growth of new forms of tourist accommodation. The research results show that the residents’ annoyance caused by tourism gentrification is more intense than tourism-phobia. Both case studies highlight the residents’ complaints regarding the inadequate management of problems by public stakeholders and control measures.

Abstract In the article, we consider the impact of adolescence upon the usage of Polish in Polish-German bilinguals raised and living in Germany and demonstrate how adolescence surfaces as a socially based “critical period” in this usage using results from a survey and interviews conducted with 30 teenagers. In the quantitative part of the study, we seek to establish whether adolescents’ age affected the pattern and quantity of their usage of Polish in the media and contacts with age peers, whether the latter two facets of growing up with Polish were interrelated, and which other factors affected peer-relevant activities in Polish. Both age and peer contact turned out to significantly affect the use of the media in Polish, while peer contact in Polish was affected by the parental use of Polish in parent-child communication. The qualitative part presents the context and motivation for using Polish by the youths in peer-relevant activities. We integrate the results with insights provided by child development psychology from the perspective of language socialisation theory and interpret the age-related decline of interest in the Polish media as an effect of a diminishing role of parents and the increasing role of age peers as role models in personal development.

Abstract. Narcotics in unattended use can have a negative impact. The impact is potential to destroy the youth generation. It is necessary to hold the drug prevention programs, especially in schools as one of ways to prevent the widespread negative impact. The prevention can be through the role of parents, teachers and stakeholders as part of the community. The teachers’ role is divided into four sub-role, namely as educators, as advisors, as mentors, and particularly as problem solvers. The role of teachers certainly will not have power if it is not supported by the role of schools. Effots that are conducted by school stakeholder are as follow: a) compose the school rules; b) conduct inspections intensively and spontaneously; c) cooperate with related institutions for counseling and socialization; d) utilize extracurricular activities as means of prevention; e) integrate drug awareness into learning curriculum; (f) maximize the tasks as the effort of drug abuse prevention. Expectedly, these drug prevention efforts can be implemented by all schools as one of ways to prevent the destruction of the nation through NAPZA. Abstrak. Narkoba dalam penggunaan yang tidak diawasi dapat menimbulkan dampak negatif. Dampak tersebut tidak menutup kemungkinan dapat merusak generasi muda. Salah satu cara agar bahaya tersebut tidak meluas dampaknya, maka perlu program pencegahan terutama di sekolah. Pencegahan tersebut dapat melalui peran orang tua, guru dan pemangku kebijakan sebagai bagian dari masyarakat. Peran guru dibagi dalam empat yakni sebagai pendidik, penasehati, pembimbing dan lebih utama lagi sebagai problem solver. Peran guru ini tentu tidak akan memiliki kekuatan jika tidak didukung oleh peran sekolah. Upaya yang dilakukan oleh pihak sekolah adalah a) membuat tata tertib sekolah, b) melakukan razia intensif dan spontan, c) bekerjasama dengan instansi terkait guna penyuluhan dan sosialisasi, d) menggunakan ekstrakurikuler sebagai sarana pencegahan, e) memasukkan materi tentang narkotika ke dalam kurikulum pengajaran, f) memaksimalkan tugas dalam upaya pencegahan penyalahgunaan NAPZA. Diharapkan agar upaya pencegahan tersebut dapat diikuti oleh semua sekolah sebagai salah satu usaha untuk mencegah rusaknya anak bangsa melalui NAPZA.

The Impact

The Indonesian government was concerned about the impact of a wider spread of Covid-19, so it moved quickly to break the chain of transmission by urging people to live a healthy lifestyle, avoid crowds, and keep a safe distance. As a result, the circumstance has a significant impact on education and learning. The goal of this study is to learn more about the role of parents in promoting distant learning and to identify the characteristics that encourage and limit distance learning in Bolo Village during the Covid-19 outbreak. Students are forced to study from home due to government regulations. Teachers can ensure students' learning activities in a variety of ways, one of which is by involving parents as the primary companion of students when they are at home. The participants in this study were parents and their junior high school-aged children. The information was gathered through organized interviews utilizing the researcher's prepared questions. The data in this study was analyzed utilizing qualitative data analysis approaches such as the Miles and Huberman model, which features a cycle that includes data reduction, data presentation, verification, and conclusion drafting. According to the findings of this study, parents in Bolo Village played four roles in supporting learning from home during the Covid-19 pandemic: 1) accompanying children in learning, 2) intense communication with children, 3) providing supervision to children, and 4) educating and supporting children motivation. The supporting variables discovered are: 1) responsibility, 2) family values, and 3) availability to satisfy the needs of children. There are also barriers, such as 1) internet network issues, 2) too much workload, and 3) boring and less diversified learning approaches.

SummaryTo provide an overview on social media for consumers and patients in areas of health behaviours and outcomes.A directed review of recent literature.We discuss the limitations and challenges of social media, ranging from social network sites (SNSs), computer games, mobile applications, to online videos. An overview of current users of social media (Generation Y), and potential users (such as low socioeconomic status and the chronically ill populations) is also presented. Future directions in social media research are also discussed.We encouragethe health informaticscommunity to consider the socioeconomic class, age, culture, and literacy level of their populations, and select an appropriate medium and platform when designing social networkedinterventionsforhealth.Little isknown about the impact of second-hand experiences faciliated by social media, nor the quality and safety of social networks on health. Methodologies and theories from human computer interaction, human factors engineering and psychology may help guide the challenges in design-ingand evaluatingsocial networkedinterventionsforhealth. Further, by analysing how people search and navigate social media for health purposes, infodemiology and infoveillance are promising areas of research that should provide valuable insights on present and emergening health behaviours on a population scale.

The Impact

School closures due to COVID-19 have been predicted to have a large impact on pupils’ learning and wellbeing. Systematic evidence about teachers’ perceptions of what challenges their pupils have faced, and how they have been addressing these challenges, will be important for post-pandemic planning. We interviewed 24 teachers from English state mainstream primary and secondary schools in June 2020 and asked them to describe the impact of partial school closures on their pupils’ learning and wellbeing, and how they had been addressing challenges as individual teachers and at the whole school level. Data were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis. Six themes were identified: (a) pedagogy and process, (b) communication with pupils and families, (c) life at home, (d) the role of parents, (e) a COVID-19 curriculum, and (f) moving forwards and making plans. Teachers reported difficulties in navigating the new form of education and finding the most effective way to teach and engage with the pupils. Pupils’ lack of routine and their home environment were seen as influencing their learning and wellbeing. Parents’ differing levels of involvement raised concerns about inequality. We discuss the practical implications of how to support pupils’ learning and wellbeing both during and after COVID-19.

The Impact

The present article analyzes the relevance of the combination of the verbal and non-verbal components of popular science text and the role of computer technologies and the global information network Internet in creating texts of this type. The author conducts a study to assess the impact of Internet technologies on the process of creating electronic popular science text in an attempt to determine the most promising technologies used in this process. The author concludes that the most advanced technologies have to be used in creating a popular science text. It is noted that the Internet era opens up new opportunities for creating popular science texts, however, the most effective way to create popular science texts combines verbal and non-verbal means (primarily photographs) and modern computer technologies. An important aspect of popular science text is a trend towards the reduction in volume which is achieved through photographs often replacing lengthy descriptions and explanations. Considering the polysemantic nature of photography and the stabilizing function of a text in relation to an image, an approach to the consideration of verbal and visual components in the framework of popular science text is proposed.
