The entrepreneur is regarded as a driver of economic development encouraging researchers to delve into the causes that lead some people to choose the entrepreneurial activity. The response has followed two approaches: biological and sociological. The former privileges non-cognitive skills while the sociological favors factors are associated with learning and contextual conditions. Thus, the question arises: Is behavior determined by non-cognitive skills or can it be 'shaped' throughout an individual's lifetime? Using an exploratory approach supported by a literature review and contacts with the Portuguese (context under analysis) educational system, the authors aim to understand which skills are critical, the way they are acquired and developed, and the role the educational system plays in their development, concluding that entrepreneurial activity implies cognitive and non-cognitive skills which the system must deliver provided the teachers' training in advance.

The analysis of masculinity has been a topic of growing interest in recent decades. Its study has incorporated a wide and diverse range of research areas and themes, including the representation of gender relations and identities on the Internet. Specifically, this article concerns the research area related to online dating websites and aims to compare the principal current tendencies related to identity -as provided by research on masculinity- with the way that men present themselves on two Spanish dating websites: Meetic.es and AdoptaUnTio.es. These types of virtual spaces have specific characteristics that facilitate the analysis of the masculine ideal among their users; or at least the characteristics that these men consider attractive to women. This research was carried out through a qualitative analysis supported by Atlas-ti. The principal results highlight the presence of traces of the so called egalitarian masculinity within predominant forms of traditional masculinity, characterized by a minimal process of reflection and introspection on the part of users of these websites.

The article examines the concept of “space”, based on other researchers’ works, examined spatial perception process, factors that determine a different every human perception of space, analysing the impact of architectural spaces on the perceiver. The most attention is focused on educational spaces, because in the lithuanian context there is a lack of information on the subject. In the article author is keeping the opinion that physical environment becomes a factor or measure, helping not only to seek for the best learning results, but also achieve the best state of being of the learner. Therefore the article attempt to identify those principles of space formation which could stimulate children’s cognitive skills and help to design a quality educational environment. Based on the analyzed theories of certain features of the spaces is provided on specific examples of schools. Straipsnyje, remiantis kitų tyrėjų veikalais, aiškinamasi „erdvės“ sąvoka, nagrinėjamas erdvės suvokimo procesas, veiksniai, lemiantys skirtingą kiekvieno žmogaus erdvės suvokimą, analizuojamas architektūrinės erdvės poveikis suvokėjui. Daugiausia dėmesio skiriama edukacinėms erdvėms, nes lietuviškame kontekste trūksta informacijos šia tema. Straipsnyje laikomasi nuostatos, jog fizinė erdvė gali tapti veiksniu ar priemone, kuri padėtų siekti ne tik geriausių mokymosi rezultatų, bet ir palankiausiai besimokančio asmens būsenai sukurti. Todėl straipsnyje bandoma identifikuoti tuos erdvių formavimo principus, kurie galėtų skatinti kognityvinius vaikų gebėjimus bei padėtų sukurti kokybišką edukacinę aplinką. Remiantis išanalizuotomis teorijomis tam tikrų erdvių bruožai pateikiami remiantis konkrečių mokyklų pavyzdžiais.

Many models of cognitive ability and disability rely on the idea of cognition as abstract reasoning processes implemented in the brain. Research in cognitive science, however, emphasizes the way that our cognitive skills are embodied in our more basic capacities for sensing and moving, and the way that tools in the external environment can extend the cognitive abilities of our brains. It is important to address the implications of research in embodied cognition and extended cognition for how we think about cognitive impairment and rehabilitation, how cognitive reserve mitigates neural impairment, and the distinction between medical and social models of disability.

The question of the style of thinking, which most reflects the results of informatization of education, is discussed. It is shown that such is the so-called "computational thinking", which contributes to solving problems in a highly developed information and educational environment. Computational thinking is the way people think in the digital age that can be useful (and for many it is) in the world of information technology and the massive involvement of computers in solving problems. For the formation of computational thinking, special efforts must be made, and they will be fruitful only in a highly developed information and educational environment created in the process of informatization of education. Computational thinking does not arise by itself - it must be purposefully shaped.

This article presents a fragment of a much larger research project set up to monitor the educational path of children with an aptitude for mathematics at the very earliest stages of education. The study had a diagnostic character and involved 73 mathematically promising children, chosen out of 299 children examined throughout the course of a screening process carried out in the last stage of pre-school education. The research was conducted in a natural educational environment. The longitudinal study analysed pupils’ skills and mathematical knowledge, along with mental traits manifesting their inclination for mathematical giftedness and the way children function within the particular framework of mathematical education. The outcomes of the research suggest that there are many mathematically gifted children and that an inclination for mathematical giftedness can be effectively identified already in kindergartners. Unfortunately, the research also reveals that many of the children who demonstrate mathematical giftedness in kindergarten cease to do so after the first several months of primary school. What is more, the study results show that many of the teachers examined have a routine and inflexible approach to teaching mathematics. Even though the way children function in the school environment changes throughout the course of school socialization, most teachers remain unchanged in their teaching styles. All of the children, including the talented ones, need an inspiring environment to provide an adequate level of competition to foster their needs and outstanding potential. This article is intended to present the ways in which the educational environment may contribute to accelerating or halting children’s development in this field.

Is it accurate to suggest that face-to-face (F2F) learning involves learner “embodiment” (learners' physical presence) and fully online learning involves learner “disembodiment” (a lack of learner corporeality in the learning experience)? An exploration of the research suggests that the concepts of embodiment and disembodiment are not clearly defined and, further, that learners engage with “mixed embodiment” in all the contexts of F2F, blended, and fully online learning. There are not bright lines of embodiment and disembodiment in the separation between real and virtual spaces in learning. This work offers a basic definition of “mixed embodiment” and some early thoughts on the way the physical learner is engaged in online learning with a variety of factors: assignment types, social interactivity, group assignments, instructor interactivity, assignment sharing, self-representation creation, technological applications, and other factors. This work has implications on instructional and learning design for greater incorporation of learner embodiment in online learning.
