The scope of this Paper is to share some Studies and Research work carried out on Interdisciplinarity that bring an Impulse to Creativity and Innovation. The first contribution comes from the field of spoken and written expression conducted under the Interdisciplinar vision / approach, revealing the expanded potential of the Being, unfolding in an open – ended creative and innovative way. The second contribution comes from the field of Teacher Development using the “Know Thyself” approach, in which teachers are prepared for their mission to help students get to know themselves better and access their potential, too. The third contribution comes from a research on Education in connection to the Indian communities in Pantanal through the Anthropological Interdisciplinarity. In all of them, the characteristic of involving the Being consciously towards the doing, together with unattachment of the results, has been invaluable to promote rewarding outcomes, that would not have emerged without the Interdisciplinary attitude.

As a continuation of a previous research work carried out to estimate the Bond work index (wi) by using a simulator based on the cumulative kinetic model (CKM), a deeper analysis was carried out to determine the link between the kinetic and energy parameters in the case of metalliferous and non-metallic ore samples. The results evidenced a relationship between the CKM kinetic parameter k and the grindability index gbp; and also with the wi, obtained following the standard procedure. An excellent correlation was obtained in both cases, posing the definition of alternative work index estimation tests with the advantages of more straightforward and quicker laboratory procedures.

During a four-year period, ampelographic experiments focusing on the berry cluster (average length of grape cluster, number of grape clusters per shoot, number of berries per grape cluster and length of peduncle), berry (length of berry and berry juice yield), length of pedicel and seed (length of berry seed) of Merlot cultivar (used as a relevant standard) and 11 clones (Nos. 022, 023, 025, 026, 027, 028, 029, 030, 031, 033 and 034) were performed in order to establish the differences among them. These experiments were actually conducted in the third phase of individual clonal selection of Merlot cultivar carried out in Serbia. The lengths of grape cluster and pedicel as well as berry must yields differed significantly among the examined clones. The cluster and principal component analyses classified 12 samples into three divergent clusters/groups, respectively. The clones belonging to the cluster II /the second group/ had significantly higher values of numbers of grape clusters per shoot and berries per grape cluster; lengths of peduncle and berry; berry must yield and length of pedicel, compared both to standard Merlot /the cluster I, the first group/ and the clones of the cluster III /the third group/. The phenological observations showed no significant differences in the beginnings and durations of phenological stages and vegetation period of the examined clones. The obtained results indicate the real need for further research work focused both on the agrobiological and technological properties of the grapes and wines aiming to better describe the selected clones.

TOEFL test is one of the requirements for the students of English Study Program FKIP UNRI to finish their study at S1 Degree.  Based on the researcher’s observation, most of the students did not pass the TOEFL Test.  The students followed the test for several times till they reached the passing grade. It seemed that the students got difficulties in answering the TOEFL Test. So, in this research the researcher focused on analyzing the students’ difficulties in answering the Written Expression section of the TOEFL test.  The aims of this research were to identify the categories of items in the Written Expression section of the TOEFL test which were difficult for the third-year students of English Study Program FKIP-UNRI . and to identify which categories of items that were easy for the students. This research was a quantitative research. The researcher analyzed the categories of items tested in TOEFL test, especially in the Written Expression section. There were 12 categories of items tested in the Written Expression section of the TOEFL test based on Longman Preparation Course for the TOEFL Test by Deborah Phillips (2000: 144-221). The categories consisted of subject-verb agreement, parallel structure, comparative and superlative, the use of the verbs, the forms of the verbs, passive verbs, nouns, pronouns, adjectives and adverbs, articles, prepositions and usages   The result of the research showed that there were 10 categories of items that were difficult for the students. The categories were parallel structures, comparatives and superlatives, the use of the verbs, passive verbs, nouns, pronouns, adjectives and adverbs, articles, prepositions and usages.  While the categories of items which were considered easy for the students were subject-verb agreement and the forms of the verbs. So, in general, the students got difficulties in answering the Written Expression section of the TOEFL test.

Interesting is the participation of education in the Social and Solidarity Economy (ESyS), fundamentally of the higher level, as a key piece of action with society. Mexico has a little more than 5,334 university schools, 6 states concentrate 42.8% of HEIs, Puebla is located as the third entity with the largest number of universities with just over 480 university campuses, after Mexico City and the Mexico state. The objective of this research work is to analyze that Higher Education Institutions (IES) of the public or private sphere, in Mexico, contemplate in their academic offer Study Programs (PE) to the ESyS, which emerges at local, regional, national level and global as the Third Sector, considering the cooperatives, whose presence in Mexico was in the year of 1873, when the first production cooperative emerged. The research is documentary theorist. Results: in Mexico, .14% of studies in ESyS or some variant are offered: four undergraduate degrees, one in open and distance mode; in postgraduates: three Masters and an Inter-institutional Doctorate (in which two HEIs participate). Therefore, the academic offer in Mexican territory in ESyS does not get 1%, insufficient to support cooperatives, some with state and national recognition. The proposal is that this type of educational offer be carried out in each federal entity of Mexico, to reinforce cooperatives, organizations with contributions in the economy of this country from the educational field.

The mucous membrane of the respiratory tract is easily the immediate effects of the environment, while contact with air that is inhaled, so pneumonia is common in dogs. For the treatment of dogs, sick with  catarrhal bronchopneumonia there are a number of tools and methods, but they are not always effective. Moreover, many of these methods have long waiting period of action and significant side effects. Thet is why the purpose of our research  work was to find effective and biologically safe treatment of dogs, sick with catarrhal bronchopneumonia and installation pharmacological effectiveness of complex antihomotoxic preparations Traumel (ad us.vet) and Phosphor-Homakkord (ad us.vet). The material for the study were 40 dogs aged 1 to 3 years old, weighing 34 to 43 kg (German and East-European sheep-dog), sick with acute catarrhal bronchopneumonia. Each animal was subjected to clinical and hematology research. Sick animals were divided in to four groups: ten animals to each group. First and second – control groups, third and fourth – experimental groups. In the first group we used mukaltyn 0.5 g orally twice a day up to recovery, bitsillin 3 50 th. UA / kg once every three days by intramuscular injection, dissolving in 2 ml of isotonic sodium chloride and vitamin B12 1 ml once a day subcutaneously for 10 days. In the second control group instead of bitsillin-3 was used antibiotic combi-kell 1 ml per 10 kg weight of body subcutaneously once every three days up to recover.In the third and fourth groups we used the lymphotropic complex antihomotoxic therapy with using the homeopathic preparations Traumel and Phosphor-Homakkord in conjunction with traditional means. Thus, in the third group was used inside mukaltyn 0.5 g twice a day up to recovery, bitsillin 3 50 th.UA / kg once every three days vnutrishom'yazovo dissolving in 2 ml of isotonic sodium chloride lidasa intradermally 32 IU with 1 ml of 0.5% solution of novocaine 3 days in a row, then 3 times a week, Traumel regional lymphotropic three consecutive days to 1 ml intradermally, then every three days and Phosphor- Homakkord lymphotropic regionally 1 ml 1 every 3 days to recovery . In the fourth experimental group used the same treatment, but instead of bitsillin-3 was used Combi-Kell 1 ml / 10 kg subcutaneously once every three days to recover.The results of our researches show that using of complex anthyhomotoxic therapy is appropriate and therapeutically effective versus conventional therapy.So despite the fact that there are a wide number of preparations and methods for treatment of dogs, sick with catarrhal bronchopneumonia, they are not always effective. As shown by our researches, using of compex anthyhomotoxic lymphotropic with the preparations Traumel and Phosphor-Homakkord reduces the duration and improve the quality of treatment.

Introduction. In modern philosophy of perception, the issue of the content of perceptual mental states is actively discussed, in particular the possibility of nonconceptual content is one of the most significant problem. Usually conceptual activity is attributed to thinking, and perception is intended to be non-conceptual. Such an approach may deprive perception of opportunity to serve as a basis for judgment. The paper analyzes Tye’s theory of non-conceptual content of perceptual mental states, which does not deprive the perception of its epistemological function.Methodology and sources. Methodologically, the research work is based on philosophical analysis of modern theories of perception and results of cognitive research.Results and discussion. In accepted terminology, the content of perceptual mental states can be of three types: conceptual, non-conceptual detailed (fine-grained) and nonconceptual coarse (coarse-grained). Tye's position is that perceptual mental states have only the third kind of content. This approach faces a number of objections that are presented in this paper. The analysis of objections shows their surmount ability, thus, it can be concluded that the Tye’s position of nonconceptual content can be considered as reasonable. The main result of the presented research is the presentation of additional grounds for the theory of non-conceptual content of perceptual mental states.Conclusion. The problem of the content of perceptual mental states is crucial for understanding the epistemological role of perception. The theory of non-conceptual content of perceptual mental states provides new insights into perception.

Relevance. Selection of columnar apple cultivars and development of adapted elements of their cultivation technology are one of the promising areas of the research work of the Russian Research Institute of Fruit Crop Breeding. The result of 36 years of the target selection work was the creation of 5 columnar apple cultivars accepted in the State Register of breeding achievements: ‘Priokskoye’, ‘Poezia’, ‘Vostorg’, ‘Girlianda’ and ‘Orlovskaya Yesenia’. All cultivars are characterized by high precocity, productivity and immunity to scab. The special habit of the columnar shape of the apple tree determines a special type of planting that is characteristic only for it, providing for super-dense placement of trees.Results. Our research experimentally demonstrates the possibility of reducing the total number of plants per hectare while maintaining a high density of fruit wood in the orchard. These technologies will significantly reduce the amount of necessary planting material, therefore, reduce the initial cost of laying a columnar apple orchard. Thus, when growing columnar cultivars in the crown of a 3–4-98 semi- dwarf rootstock with a tree planting density of 3333 trees per hectare, the number of columnar branches corresponds to the plantation with a density of 20,000 columnar trees per 1 ha. The study of this technology showed that the cultivars entered fruiting in the third year after grafting of 2-year-old skeletal trees; the yield of the studied columnar cultivars for the first 10 years of fruiting averaged 81.6 t/ ha. Annual fruiting was observed throughout the entire observation period. Another promising option is to grow columns in the form of crowned plants on a dwarf rootstock 62–396. The crown on average consists of 5 branches, while the total number of columnar branches reaches 12 500 PCs/ha. The proportion of trees that entered fruiting in the third year after grafting depended on the depth of seedling planting. For normal planting, it was 28%, which is twice the same value for deep planting (15 cm below the root neck).

In language teaching, written production is an important educational issue for the assessment of language learners in class. Thus, the summary remains a pedagogical purpose and a typology of the F.L.E's teaching strategies, which encourages learners to develop a text to improve this linguistic component essential to the acquisition of a foreign language. In this article, the question is whether the summary as a teaching aid serves as a test for the development of written expression skills. By relying on summary examples where written production represents a linguistic skill promoting the learning of the target language, and to advance learners during this writing activity in a university setting. Our research work is a reflection on the importance of written production in the learning of FFL, considered as a task allowing learners to mobilize skills in writing when writing a summary.

This chapter explores the future human and behavioural challenges that are likely to have an impact on cybersecurity. It identifies some general challenges that will need to be overcome. The first challenge will be to accept that cybersecurity practitioners are not average end users. It is important to understand cybersecurity as a social practice that is carried out in specific and variable contexts if we are to design successful behavioural and social interventions. The second challenge is to improve the levels of creativity and innovation demonstrated by cybersecurity practitioners. Finally, the third challenge is to look at how we address cybersecurity risk. Meeting these challenges will depend on developing a skill set among cybersecurity practitioners that puts soft skills on a par with technical skills, and establishes trust relationships through genuine dialogue realized through participative approaches to cybersecurity.
