Analysis Of Teaching

Purpose. It is the review of history of teaching of the normative discipline «Chemistry with the Basics of Biogeochemistry» and chemical selective disciplines in the formation of bachelor’s and master’s degrees of speciality 101 «Ecology» aimed to 1) pay attention to the modern state of the hourly load of natural disciplines of chemical direction, making the basis for the formation of well-educated ecologist; and 2) to find the ways to improve the chemical component in higher ecological education in terms of the reformation of Ukrainian higher school. Methods. Specification, analysis, synthesis, identifying cause-effect relationships with the declarative direction of the system researches. Results. The analysis of teaching the normative and selective chemical disciplines is conducted for the speciality 101 “Ecology” in chronological order from 1999 to 2018. The usefulness and the importance of the chemical education in forming special and integrated competencies of ecologists have been shown; the article deals with the reduction of hourly load of the normative discipline «Chemistry with the Basics of Biogeochemistry» by one third and provides doubts about the effectiveness of its mastering by applicants of higher education in this context. The teaching of chemical disciplines within the ecological program at the universities of the USA, European Union, Russian Federation and Kazakhstan is discussed too. The most important reasons for training «Chemistry with the Basics of Biogeochemistry» for ecologists are discussed. The ways to solve the problem by changing the approach in the classical teaching of chemistry in the real situation are proposed. Conclusions. Conclusions. In today’s reality, the reduction in teaching chemical disciplines and exclusion of them from the curriculums are unjustified and regressive. The need to expand and to improve the chemical knowledge of ecologist is obvious amid the increase of technogenic load on the biosphere. The introduction of block-disciplines of the ecological-chemical content, special courses, presentations, master classes was proposed for acquiring the required competencies. It is biogeochemistry with its naturalistic informativity and applied component can provide the ecologist with a modern outlook, professional worldview and necessary competence significance.

Abstract We explored how professional jurisdiction contests influence organizational outcomes by examining how Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) schools in the USA were impacted by a policy pursuing educational upskilling. While others have focused on boundary work at the field and work levels, we argue that contests between professions also influence important organizational outcomes. We detail how the profession’s accreditation decision requiring schools to provide Master’s degrees within a 17 year window took place in the context of physicians historically battling CRNAs. We provide an analytic narrative illustrating the history of this jurisdictional dispute, and empirically examine how CRNA schools with cultures differentially supportive of physicians’ field-level dominance responded to the requirement of educational upskilling. Our analysis indicates that the timing of a school adopting a graduate program was influenced by whether the organizational culture, represented by organizational ownership, supported physician dominance. We also highlight the importance of access to resources as another conduit for boundary work impacting organizational outcomes.

Correct Understanding

This article in principle wants to examine the history of the emergence of the conflict of Islamic revival in Minangkabau starting from the Paderi Movement to the Youth in Minangkabau. Especially in the initial period, namely the Padri movement, there was a tragedy of violence (radicalism) that accompanied it. This study becomes important, because after all the reformation of Islam began to be realized by reforming human life in the world. Both in terms of thought with the effort to restore the correct understanding of religion as it should, from the side of the practice of religion, namely by reforming deviant practices and adapted to the instructions of the religious texts (al-Qur'an and sunnah), and also from the side of strengthening power religion. In this case the research will be directed to the efforts of renewal by the Padri to the Youth towards the Islamic community in Minangkabau. To discuss this problem used historical research methods. Through this method, it is tested and analyzed critically the records and relics of the past. In analyzing the data in this research basically used approach or interactive analysis model by Miles and Huberman. In this analysis model, the three components of the analysis are data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing or verification, the activity is carried out in an interactive form with the process of collecting data as a process that continues, repeats, and continues to form acycle.

The Impact

The history of human society is replete with examples of advances in technology overrunning the ability of societal organizations to efficiently handle the resulting massive societal dislocations. The social impacts of the “Industrial Revolution of the 18th and 19th Centuries” illustrate how profound such effects can be. The automation-computer-robotics revolution now underway also has the potential for serious societal changes. In this regard public works activities are subject to increasing amounts of automation with impacts upon current and net total employment and training needs. To evaluate the present status of automation in the USA, questionnaires were sent to public works authorities in 110 cities or agencies. The current degree of automation, the impact upon employment and the skills now needed by public works employers were queried. It was found that in most cases automation was just starting; but that as complete automation as was possible was inevitable given the increasing complexity of the tasks, the demands of the public and the long term prospects for public works funding. In many cases the candidates now in the work force were not properly trained for automation needs. Retraining and changes in the educational system appeared necessary if the employees now needed were to be continuously available. Public works management as well as several labor organizations appeared to be aware of this need and were organizing to handle the training problem and the changes in employment qualifications now necessary. It appeared to be a consensus that the larger societal effects of automation should be handled by society as a whole.

This conclusion offers a brief commentary on the implications of song, resurrection, and belief for the broader history of the Reformation. It relates the various uses of song by Lutherans (hymn pamphlets), Anabaptists (martyr songs), Dutch Reformed exiles (psalms), and Catholics (motets) to these confessions’ ideas of belief as it concerned resurrection and their understandings of how belief was bound up with the Christian life on earth. In place of a story of the transformation of one conception of Christianity to many different conceptions, this book as a whole suggests that the Reformation might be reconceived as a much more elemental debate about the role that belief was to play in a Christian life.

The Reformation of Prophecy presents and supports the case for viewing the prophet and biblical prophecy as a powerful lens by which to illuminate many aspects of the reforming work of the Protestant reformers in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. It provides a chronological and developmental analysis of the significance of the prophet and biblical prophecy across leading Protestant reformers in articulating a theology of the priesthood of all believers, a biblical model of the pastoral office, a biblical vision of the reform of worship, and biblical processes for discerning right interpretation of Scripture. Through the tool of the prophet and biblical prophecy, the reformers framed their work under, within, and in support of the authority of Scripture—for the true prophet speaks the Word of God alone and calls the people, their worship and their beliefs and practices, back to the Word of God. The book also demonstrates how interpretations and understandings of the prophet and biblical prophecy contributed to the formation and consolidation of distinctive confessional identities, especially around differences in their visions of sacred history, Christological exegesis of Old Testament prophecy, and interpretation of Old Testament metaphors. This book illuminates the significant shifts in the history of Protestant reformers’ engagement with the prophet and biblical prophecy—shifts from these serving as a tool to advance the priesthood of all believers to a tool to clarify and buttress clerical identity and authority to a site of polemical-confessional exchange concerning right interpretations of Scripture.

Presbyterian preaching grew from roots in the Reformation, particularly the Calvinist wing. The fullest early expression of the character of Presbyterian preaching is in the Westminster Standards, documents produced in England by an assembly of Calvinist clergy and laymen in the mid-seventeenth century. These documents described the key qualities of Reformed, and thus Presbyterian, preaching: sermons grounded in the Bible, containing significant doctrinal content, and aimed at teaching and edifying congregants.The authors of the Westminster Standards prescribed preaching that was substantive and lively, filled with biblical and doctrinal content, and touched the hearts of hearers. Throughout the history of Presbyterian preaching, however, these twin goals were often difficult to attain. This tension between intellectual, content-centered preaching and more emotional, experience-centered preaching among Presbyterian is evident in such events as the Old Side–New Side controversy in the mid-1700s and the Old School–New School conflict from 1837 to 1869 (both in America), in Scottish Presbyterian preaching in the early nineteenth century, and in Korean Presbyterian preaching during the end of the twentieth and the beginning of the twentieth century.Today as many Presbyterian preachers use digital media and conversational-style sermons, a strong desire continues for preaching that is clear, deeply theological and biblical, impassioned, and relevant.
