Mathematics subject is considered difficult for most elementary students, especially when the subject is given in English. To be able to do math exercises in English, the students have to understand the math vocabulary and the concepts of math. The purpose of this community development program is to increase the elementary students’ ability in solving word math problems in English. The participants in this program are twenty elementary students who are included in ASAK Paroki MKK community. The program is created in the form of classroom teaching and activities. In this program, we teach them the basic concepts of math vocabulary, understanding the word problems and the solutions to the problems.  We also use several related activities to make the lessons meaningful and comprehensible. The results show that the students are able to solve math problems in English correctly and confidently.

This article aims to describe the fitness of Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) in Mathematics subject for elementary education in Indonesia. The research was a qualitative study conducted through a case study. The case study was conducted in the context of elementary education. This research discovered that CLIL needed to be conducted in consideration of the urgency of teaching Mathematics in English, the appropriate method of teaching Mathematics in English, the appropriate duration of applying CLIL, and the impacts of CLIL on learners. Through the application of CLIL in teaching Mathematics in English, Indonesian students will be accustomed to the concept of understanding word problems in English, be accustomed to the application of higher order thinking in solving math problems, have higher interest in math and English, and have a stronger foundation for a more complex math learning at a higher level.

The 2013 curriculum requires the teaching of each subjects are integrated, known,. This means that on one theme may link some subjects in it. After evaluating in implementation, curriculum  2013 revised edition provides the exceptions of teaching mathematics to be taught in separate. The main problems faced by teachers, especially in the teaching of mathematics are; less mastering the basic concepts of mathematics, there are still materials that do not know taught and often there are math problems that are difficult to solve. This devotional activity aims to help upper class teachers in the sub district of Bacukiki Town of Parepare (partner)  in understanding the basic concepts of mathematics, helping to solve problems that are considered difficult and difficult math material taught.Activities in the form of workshops reinforcement of mathematical material on groups of partner teachers. Interactive teaching methods, joint research and self-assignment proved to improve knowledge and understanding of basic mathematical concepts for partner teachers.

The presented paper is devoted to an innovative way of teaching mathematics, specifically the subject combinatorics in high schools. This is because combinatorics is closely connected with the beginnings of informatics and several other scientific disciplines such as graph theory and complexity theory. It is important in solving many practical tasks that require the compilation of an object with certain properties, proves the existence or non-existence of some properties, or specifies the number of objects of certain properties. This paper examines the basic combinatorial structures and presents their use and learning using relations through the Placemat method in teaching process. The effectiveness of the presented innovative way of teaching combinatorics was also verified experimentally at a selected high school in the Slovak Republic. Our experiment has confirmed that teaching combinatorics through relationships among talented children in mathematics is more effective than teaching by a standard algorithmic approach.

The article is devoted to the definition of concept in modern linguistics. Various points of view and definitions of the basic concepts are considered: "concept", "conceptual sphere", "content". The aim of the article is to describe and explain such a complex unit as a concept from the point of view of linguistics. The object of research is studied in its various manifestations, the combination of verbal and nonverbal means of information expression in the conceptual sphere is revealed. the relevance of this topic is due to the need for a detailed consideration of the concept of concept based on the works of prominent scientists and linguists. Researchers treat the concept as a cognitive, psycholinguistic, linguocultural, cultural and linguistic phenomenon. The concept is an umbrella term because it "covers" the subject areas of several scientific fields: primarily cognitive psychology and cognitive linguistics.

The article is devoted to the consideration of the theory of social action in the context of criticism of the theory of action by analytical philosophy. Firstly, the article describes the basic concepts of social action by M. Weber, E. Durkheim, and T. Parsons. Despite some disagreements between these sociologists, they agree that social action is purposeful and intentional, as well as focused on other people, due to which it receives a social characteristic. Then the author turns to analytical philosophy, in which the concept of "intention" was subjected to skeptical analysis. For example, in the philosophy of late Wittgenstein, action receives its meaning not from the intentions of the actor, but from the context of its implementation, just as words get their meaning from the conditions in which they are used. His ideas were developed by E. Anscombe, who rejected introspection as a method of comprehending the intentions of the subject of action. An obvious consequence of the refusal of psychologizing intent was an appeal to the context of the action being performed and to its social conditions as well. Having considered examples of the application of the theories of social action, the author concludes that sociologists in most of their studies use the model of a rational subject of action, the distinguishing feature of which is awareness of one’s own intentions and goals. Although some researchers have attempted to make this model weaker in order to approximate it to real participants of social interaction, these changes did not affect the awareness of the subject of action of his own goals and intentions. Therefore, the author of the article concludes that one of the urgent tasks of sociology is to develop a new model of the subject of action, which will organically combine the subject’s orientation to the external context and limited awareness of the grounds for his own actions.

This work examines with the form of the well-known sum: p + q = 1 – which is the sum of the probabilities of opposite events, in particular: the sum of the probabilities of the operational and non-operational (failure) states of a single element (a creation characterised by one output and any number of inputs). It was found that without significantly compromising the accuracy of the previous analyses, it was possible to introduce an additional component to the sum: iiipq3, a component that embodies the probability of an intermediate state, or a reduced operational state. With a constant value of the sum of the components in question, their variation as a function of probability q was determined, following which in the function of the same variable the variation of the entropy of an element's i state was examined using Chapman-Kolmogorov equations; here the focus was on investigating the intensity of the transition from the operational state to the non-operational state or an intermediate state, and from an intermediate state to the non-operational state. The meaning of intermediate probability was also referenced to the object: its diagnostic program, the entropy of structure, the full set of discriminable states, and the relevant transition intensities. It became indispensable in this respect to describe the object using the language of graph theory, in which the basic concepts are layers and an availability matrix. It should be noted that the subject object is an entity that comprises a set of individual elements, with a number and structure of connections that are consistent with the purpose of this entity.

The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers has as an objective of its research and development program the determination of better harbor design criteria for tsunami protection. A previous report (Houston, et. al., 1975b) addressed the subject of tsunami vulnerability of the Pacific Coast of the continental United States to tsunamis originating in the Aleutian Trench. That report determined the variation in tsunami amplitude as a function of coastal distance due to a standard uplift source at different locations in the Aleutian Trench. The present report is a continuation of that study and addresses the subject of tsunami vulnerability along the same stretch of coast to tsunamis originating in the Peru-Chile Trench. In addition, modifications to the numerical code used in the previous report allowed the simulation of the Chile tsunami of May 22, 1960.
