Выявлены состав и специфика реализации ядерных признаков концепта «высшее образование», представленного в отечественных СМИ 2012–2017 гг. и отражающего результаты медийной интерпретации отечественного образования как социального института. Материал и методы. Материалом для исследования послужили публикации в центральных российских СМИ с 2012 по 2017 г., размещенные на официальных сайтах изданий, включающие новости, аналитические статьи, интервью. Отбор материала осуществлялся сплошной выборкой текстов, реализующих исследуемый концепт. Результаты и обсуждение. В ядерную зону лексических репрезентантов исследуемого концепта в СМИ входят словосочетания высшее образование, высшая школа, его контекстуальные синонимы профессиональное образование и образование, в состав его репрезентантов – лексемы вуз, университет. Кроме того, интерпретацию исследуемого концепта маркируют лексемы, номинирующие специфику деятельности соответствующего института. Развертывание рассматриваемого концепта в исследуемый период характеризуется формированием признакового состава в соответствии с содержанием проводимых реформ, а также динамикой реализации обнаруженных признаков. В результате было выделено четыре ядерных признака медийного концепта «высшее образование»: «конкурентоспособность на мировом уровне», «институт, объединяющий вузы, характер и количество которых адекватны решению его задач», «ориентированность на экономику», «экономически эффективное рыночное производство». Заключение. Все выявленные признаки отражают базовые положения проводимой в это время реформы российского образования, а их представление в СМИ соответствует, с одной стороны, установке на освещение реформы и удовлетворению потребностей читателей – с другой.

Policy documents have long emphasized lifelong learning, social development, global competition and employability. At the same time, how higher education needs to be transformed to meet this demand for creating opportunities for lifelong learning is an important issue. This study seeks to take on the literature through the exploration of two main constructs: lifelong learning and higher education reform, answering the question of which key themes of lifelong learning, if any, are emerging in higher education reforms. Using a systematic review of relevant, foundational, and current published literature on lifelong learning and higher education reform, the twostep selection of the publications is presented. Key themes are discussed as well as next steps in the continued study with the systematic literature review in which selected articles will be read by and expert panel. How lifelong learning and higher education reform can create a diverse higher education system which will address diverse students and required competencies in diverse, dynamic societies will be of importance for future study.

The article examines functioning of the Russian language outside the Russian Federation: the peculiarities of the «national» Russian language in the Republic of Armenia, the concept of this term itself, the significance of using Russian in the media, overlapping national features. The main characteristics of the «national» Russian language outside Russia are considered to be as follows: the language is seen as an «advocate» of necessary national ideas and a real opportunity to transmit national ideas, thoughts, messages and information in a language of international communication. The development of the social institution of the «national language» in the future will largely determine the preservation of national cultural, educational as well as political and economic unity with Russia. We should not forget that professional journalistic activity is, first and foremost, a verbal activity. And the professional culture of journalists depends on how well they master the language. The linguistic features of the Russian-language media in Armenia present a rather broad spectrum of issues possible and relevant for consideration. The national variant is a certain form of adapting the classical literary language to the traditions and cultural values, to the urgent needs of a particular nation, thus becoming a special form of functioning of the language common for the nation.

We explore the relationship between ballot measures on issues salient to Millennials and their turnout in presidential and midterm elections. Both scholars and observers in the media have worried about decreasing levels of citizen participation, particularly among young voters. We demonstrate that one way to engage Millennials into traditional forms of political participation is through ballot measures that focus on issues salient to their generation (marijuana liberalization and higher education reform). We show that not only do these measures increase Millennial voting, but they erase difference in turnout levels between Millennials and older generations. This effect is primarily concentrated in low-turnout contexts such as midterm elections, indicating that these measures may be playing a similar mobilization role in midterm elections as presidential campaigns do in turnout out low-propensity voters.

La prueba de Análisis Musical es uno de los primeros exámenes que se realizan para acceder a los Conservatorios Superiores de Música en España. El alumnado suele tener problemas para superarlo debido a la extensión del temario exigido, que abarca desde el Gregoriano hasta el Romanticismo, teniendo que dominarse una gran amplitud de formas musicales (Suite, Fuga, Sonata, etc.). Las exigencias de la prueba se ven reflejadas en los resultados finales del alumnado, obteniéndose un elevado porcentaje de suspensos o bajas calificaciones, tal como confirman los datos obtenidos en los diferentes centros investigados. Ante esta situación, se consideró importante iniciar al alumnado en la preparación de esta prueba específica desde el inicio de las Enseñanzas Profesionales, tomando como referencia las propias obras del instrumento (en este caso, Clarinete), lo que al mismo tiempo repercutiría en una más correcta interpretación. Los datos obtenidos previamente a la investigación muestran que la saturación de horas lectivas y de estudio interpretativo suponen un hándicap para el alumnado a la hora de preparar esta prueba específica; en cuanto a los datos obtenidos del profesorado de diferentes conservatorios de Murcia y Alicante (Vega Baja), muestran la necesidad de preparar dicha prueba desde las Enseñanzas Profesionales, insistiéndose en tomar como referencia las obras de Clarinete. Atendiendo a esto, se propuso una metodología específica para trabajar el Análisis Musical en el aula de Clarinete, especialmente en el último ciclo de Enseñanzas Profesionales, aunque igualmente válida para los ciclos anteriores. Los resultados obtenidos con el alumnado participante mostraron que muchos de ellos obtuvieron mejores calificaciones en este examen que formaba parte de las pruebas de acceso de distintos Conservatorios Superiores de Música.ABSTRACTThe Musical Analysis test is one of the first exams to be taken to access the Superior Conservatories of Music in Spain. The students usually have problems to overcome it due to the extension of the required curriculum, which ranges from the Gregorian to Romanticism, having to master a wide range of musical forms (Suite, Fuga, Sonata, etc.). The demands of the test are reflected in the final results of the students, obtaining a high percentage of failures or low grades, as confirmed by the data obtained in the different centers which were analyzed. Faced with this situation, it was considered important to initiate the students in the preparation of this specific test from the beginning of the Professional Teachings, taking as reference the own works of the instrument (in this case, Clarinet), which at the same time would have repercussions in one more correct interpretation. The data obtained previously to the investigation show that the saturation of teaching hours and of interpretative study suppose a handicap for the students at the time of preparing this specific test; As for the data obtained from the teachers of different conservatories of Murcia and Alicante (Vega Baja), they show the need to prepare this test from the Professional Teachings, insisting on taking Clarinet's works as reference. Attending this, a specific methodology was proposed to work the Musical Analysis in the Clarinet classroom, especially in the last cycle of Professional Education, although equally valid for the previous cycles. The results obtained with the participating students showed that many of them obtained better grades in this exam that was part of the entrance exams of different Superior Conservatories of Music.

This paper discusses the use of most widely-known Russian corpora, namely Russian National Corpus, ruTenTen, General Internet Corpus of Russian, and Araneum Russicum Maximum, for the theoretical study of Russian language. Based on a sample of papers from 2019, I demonstrate that scholars, especially theoretical linguists, tend to ignore the opportunities provided by a wide range of Web corpora, even though these resources are well-known to the NLP community. I present a selection of case studies to show that data from “non-classical” corpora can be used for studying various linguistic phenomena, such as: 1) variation in morphology and syntax; 2) word formation and lexical change; 3) construction grammar. I also claim that the underuse of non-classical corpora is partly due to the fact that they are (perceived as) not quite user-friendly.

The article is dedicated to the examination and comparison of the justification of occupation of a neighboring country in the German (1938) and Russian (2014) media. The objective of the study is to reveal the mechanics of the application of the classical manipulative method of substituting of aggressor and victim on the material of German and Russian propaganda in 1938 and in 2014 respectively. According to the results of the study, clear parallels between the two information strategies can be traced at the level of the condemnation of internal aggression against a national minority loyal to Berlin / Moscow and its political representative (the Sudeten Germans – the pro-Russian Ukrainians, as well as the security forces of the Yanukovych regime); the reflections on dangers that Czechoslovakia / Ukraine poses to itself and to its neighbors; condemnation of the violation of the cultural rights of the minority that the occupier intends to protect (German language and culture – Russian language and culture); the historical parallels designed to deepen the modern conflict, to show it as a long-standing and a natural one (“Hussites” – “Banderites”). In the manipulative strategy of both media, the main focus is not on factual fabrication, but on the bias selection of facts, due to which the reader should have an unambiguous understanding of who is the permanent aggressor in the conflict (Czechoslovakia, Czechs – Ukraine, Ukrainians), and who is the permanent victim (Germans – Russians, Russian speakers). The substitution of victim and aggressor in the media in both cases became one of the most important manipulative strategies designed to justify the German occupation of part of Czechoslovakia and the Russian occupation of part of Ukraine.
