The proposed material examines the creative task of students majoring in Social Pedagogy at the University „Prof. Dr. Assen Zlatarov“ in Burgas, and studying the discipline Art Pedagogy – Part 1 – Music. In the course of the lecture course students get acquainted with the elements of musical expression, as a means of figurative representations and impact of music, with different techniques concerning individual musical activities, with the endless and diverse opportunities that music provides in the use of art pedagogy for social work teachers.Verbal interpretation of music is a necessary component when working with children with special educational needs, at risk and in the norm. Looking at Tchaikovsky’s short and extremely figurative piano piece „The Sick Doll“ from his charming „Children’s Album“, in the form of a short story, tale or essay, students express their personal vision, feeling and transformation of the musical image. The aim of the task is to transcribe the sound image into a verbal one. This requires speed, flexibility and logic in thinking, through imagination and creativity in its manifestation. Children love to listen, especially when they are involved. In search of the right way to solve problems and situations, future social educators could successfully benefit from the conversion of sound into words, according to the needs and deficits of the individual or group.

Right Of Self Determination

This research deals with the subject of the Kurdish media in relation to the right of self-determination, which the Kurds prepare for its central cause and struggle for it. The importance of this research comes from the importance of its basic components represented by the Kurdish media and the right to self-determination, where they combine the equation of influence and influence, which is the operator of the formative relations of things and designed in all human groups, including the community of the region, in addition to being one of the few Kurdish studies in this field, To cast its positive on the operators of the terms of reference.The aim of this research is to realize the levels of interest of the Kurdish media in the concept of the right to self-determination and its role in conveying its meanings and implications to the Kurdish individual, as well as to identify the mechanisms used by this media to convince the individual mentioned this right and activate his tendencies toward him.The research depends on the university teachers, in addition to their field dimension, because they are the most appropriate and the right to express opinions about such strategic issues and their details and implications, because of their knowledge, scientific, specialized and other structural participants, as well as their structural representation of various social components in the Kurdistan Region.

Hans Thiersch was born on May 16, 1935 in Recklinghausen, Germany. His work became particularly influential since the 1970s, when he applied the concept of lifeworld orientation to social pedagogy. Indeed, Thiersch can be considered one of the representatives of a critical social pedagogy. Since his retirement in 2002, he has been a professor emeritus of Education and Social Pedagogy at the University of Tübingen. He has also co-edited the handbook of social work / social pedagogy. Professor Thiersch has published extensively on a variety of topics related to education, social work, youth welfare, residential care, morality and justice. However, because most of his publications are in German, his work is not well known outside of Germany. On a rainy evening of October 2013 in Frankfurt, I had the opportunity to have a conversation with Professor Thiersch.

It is now widely acknowledged in policy and practice that the individual with dementia retains the status of a person and the essence of selfhood, has the right to be heard, and has the capacity to live well with the disabilities that dementia brings, given appropriate support. Nevertheless, negative assumptions about dementia as a ‘loss of self' and a ‘living death' remain influential. This chapter examines research evidence that can provide a foundation for a psychologically minded approach to dementia care and help to create a more constructive view of what it means to live with dementia. In this chapter findings are drawn from projects conducted by the Research in Ageing and Cognitive Health (REACH) group at Bangor University, UK on awareness, self-concept, identity and the experience of dementia for people across the dementia trajectory. The REACH group is now at the University of Exeter, UK.

1. The rotation of the plane of polarisation of light by a magnetic field provides perhaps one of the easiest approaches to a study of the spectroscopic behaviour of ordinary substances. The present work is an analysis of the available measures of the dispersion of this magnetic gyration. Several formulæ have been proposed for it, and these will be reviewed below, but it has proved most convenient to take one of them and use that; afterwards testing, to the rather limited extent possible, how far others would fit the facts. The test is made with the formula given by Becquerel in 1897, V = e /2 mc 2 λ dn/d λ , (1.1) where n is the refractive index, λ the wave-length and V is Verdet’s constant, the rotation of the plane of polarisation per centimetre per gauss. If this formula fits, and we shall find that it does, it should give the value of e/m . A few values were worked out by Becquerel himself on the rather meagre data available at that time, and later Siertsema obtained more accurate values for some other substances. All these gave e/m roughly of the right order of magnitude, and this fact was duly noted in the text-books and has been copied from one to another ever since, but usually without giving any numerical values at all. Since Larmor’s theorem fails to hold for molecules we should hardly expect to find the ordinary value, but nevertheless it seemed useful to analyse all the experimental measures available, so as to discover if any regularity would emerge. In the physical journals there are several results of this type for particular substances, but they are very much scattered, and it should prove convenient to collect together an analysis of all the substances for which the gyration has been measured. We are not attempting any deep theory of the matter, but merely a convenient summary which may prove useful when the time comes for a proper theory of the spectroscopic behaviour of ordinary substances of the type that has been so successful for monatomic gases and vapours. It is outside the scope of the present work to discuss the behaviour of the gyration of light of frequency very close to opaque bands ; this has been the subject of many experiments, but they are not by any means concordant, and take us deeper into the unknown theory than it is possible at present to go. To avoid this trouble we have limited ourselves to transparent substances, that is, to regions of the spectrum far from the bands which cause the optical effects. The data have been extracted from Landolt and Bornstein’s tables (edition 1921), in some cases supplemented from the original sources, and it has not, of course, been possible to assess the merit of each of the individual measures recorded. In a few cases there are measures of the gyration but not of the refraction; and we are greatly indebted to Dr. I. C. Somerville of the Chemical Department of the University of Edinburgh for measuring some of these refractive indices for us.

This paper deals with issues surrounding student attrition in engineering education. Looking beyond the traditional markers associated with student attainment, and adopting an action research approach, the “Engineering Futures Project” aimed to tackle an attrition rate in a faculty of engineering that was twice the university average. An algorithm was developed and students ‘at risk’ of not progressing identified. Such students were then contacted individually and offered intensive support and guidance from a member of the project team.Working with academics on a one-to-one basis, students were encouraged to reflect on why they felt they were at risk of not progressing on to the next level of their course. One of the surprising outcomes was that the majority of students indicated they had experienced considerable difficulties with their mental health in the previous 12 months. This, together with a number of other individual issues, impacted their studies. Taking account of the students' perspectives, the project team developed and put in place two distinctive support pathways; one focusing on ‘wellbeing’, the other on “academic support’. Each individual student was given time and assistance to develop their own pathways. Although resource intensive, the Engineering Futures Project was a marked success, drastically reducing attrition and making a notable difference at both the individual and faculty level.

The Relationship

The support concept is trying to embrace common elements of upbringing and education. The relationship between the supporting person and supported person is explored by the anthropology. It emphasizes a strong “spiritual self ” and the inner experiences of the individual. However, there is lack of sufficient documentation of the best contemporary practices in this field. The support term the most common occurs in social pedagogy. Today, it is sup-ported by the social work at school and pedagogical therapy. Teaching support becomes a teaching method – emphasizes comparative pedagogy. The peda-gogy of creativity indicates that creative interests and intellectual curiosity of an ill child can be developed by a teaching content. The original ideas can always come to mind, even in disease.

The Impact

Education plays an important role in minimizing the risk of a person falling into poverty. Studies have shown that persons who pursue an education to post-secondary and tertiary level are considered to be less at risk of poverty. Studies also show that the impact of education and the risk of poverty may also be generational. Individuals born in families with a lower educational level are more likely to be at risk of poverty. Research has shown that children who experience poverty very early in life may tend to have issues with achieving a complete education. This may have a ripple effect since education effects employability; that, in turn, plays an important role to address the importance of improving the financial capability of the individual and his family. This research aims to indicate strategies that may be drawn up in order to address the important role of education in eradicating poverty. A holistic approach which offers the right content, structure, and facilities is important in order to guarantee a sound basis on which more educational building blocks may be built by the individual during the educational path that the person decides to follow. Changing minds of professionals involved in planning and devising educational reforms and strategies, together with providing the most adequate support for inclusive education, key skills tutoring, and mentoring, will ensure more success stories. All these strategies will concurrently help in different ways to address the issue of financial capability of an individual and his family, and thus alleviate poverty.

In this paper the author described the results of his observations on the presence of the musculus sternalis in upwards of six hundred bodies dissected in the anatomical rooms of the University of Edinburgh. He had found it in nineteen individuals, i.e., in about 3 per cent of the bodies examined. It occurred nearly equally in the two sexes. It bore no relation to the general muscularity of the individual. In eleven subjects the muscle was single, in eight double, making together twenty-seven specimens of the muscle. The variations which it exhibited in its attachments, size, and shape, were then described. In no case were its fibres continuous with those of the rectus abdominis, or were tendinous intersections found in it, but it mostly arose either from the flattened tendon of the external oblique muscle of the abdomen, or from the cartilages of the lower true ribs, and in many instances it was continuous at its upper end with the sternal tendon of one or both sterno-mastoids, whilst in others it was inserted into the aponeurosis covering the pectoralis major. It was always superficial to the great pectoral muscle. Of the single specimens, four occurred on the right side, two on the left; whilst in the remaining five it arose on one side of the middle line, and was inserted either altogether or in part on the opposite side. It formed an excellent illustration of the truth of the general statement, that occasional and rudimentary structures are especially liable to variations in arrangement.
