William Tutte, born in Newmarket, completed a master’s degree in chemistry at Cambridge at the end of 1940, whereupon he was recruited to work at Bletchley Park as a cryptographer. He became the primary person responsible for breaking the Fish code used for high-level Army communication. After the war he returned to Cambridge as a Fellow of Trinity College, for three years of study for a PhD in mathematics. On completing his degree in 1948, he joined the Faculty of the University of Toronto, where he rose to pre-eminence in combinatorics. In 1962 he moved to the University of Waterloo, where he had a significant role in the development of the university and its Faculty of Mathematics.

OBJECTIVEInternational collaborations between high-income (HICs) and low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) have been developed as an attempt to reduce the inequalities in surgical care around the world. In this paper the authors review different models for international surgical education and describe projects developed by the Division of Neurosurgery at the University of Toronto in this field.METHODSThe authors conducted a review of models of international surgical education reported in the literature in the last 15 years. Previous publications on global neurosurgery reported by the Division of Neurosurgery at the University of Toronto were reviewed to exemplify the applications and challenges of international surgical collaborations.RESULTSThe most common models for international surgical education and collaboration include international surgical missions, long-term international partnerships, fellowship training models, and online surgical education. Development of such collaborations involves different challenges, including limited time availability, scarce funding/resources, sociocultural barriers, ethical challenges, and lack of organizational support. Of note, evaluation of outcomes of international surgical projects remains limited, and the development and application of assessment tools, such as the recently proposed Framework for the Assessment of International Surgical Success (FAIRNeSS), is encouraged.CONCLUSIONSActions to reduce inequality in surgical care should be implemented around the world. Different models can be used for bilateral exchange of knowledge and improvement of surgical care delivery in regions where there is poor access to surgical care. Implementation of global neurosurgery initiatives faces multiple limitations that can be ameliorated if systematic changes occur, such as the development of academic positions in global surgery, careful selection of participant centers, governmental and nongovernmental financial support, and routine application of outcome evaluation for international surgical collaborations.

In this article, we focus on film making as a part of craft studies and narrative inquiry. Short films were created in a course in the craft teacher master’s degree at the University of Helsinki. The aim of the course was to serve several purposes such as 1) to enable students to become familiar with a new way of deepening conceptual thinking through making, 2) to apply and develop craft skills in working on a selected concept or theme, and 3) to understand the dialogue between conceptual and material artefacts. We explore the opportunities to transmit multisensory experiences via short films. For illustration, we introduce two short films created during the course. Using the deliberative interviewing method, we have broadened the perspective on reflective and analytical level.

Рассмотрены особенности проявления оценочной тревожности, конструктивных и деструктивных компонентов ответственности у обучающихся вуза физической культуры. Представлены результаты дисперсионного анализа, свидетельствующие о влиянии этапа обучения на проявление оценочной тревожности и ответственности. Проведён корреляционный анализ показателей обучающихся 1-го и 4-го курса бакалавриата и 2-го курса магистратуры разного пола для определения взаимосвязей между показателями тревожности и ответственности. The features of the manifestation of evaluative anxiety, constructive and destructive components of responsibility in students of the university of physical culture are considered. The results of the analysis of variance are presented, indicating the influence of the learning stage on the manifestation of evaluative anxiety and responsibility. A correlation analysis of the indicators of students of the 1st, 4th year of bachelor's degree and 2nd year of master's degree of different genders was carried out to determine the relationships between the indicators of anxiety and responsibility.

To make these propellers work, you need a motor and it needs to be powerful enough to allow the whole drone to fly. This motor is powered by a battery which provides energy to the assembly. Consideration should also be given to the materials used to build the drone. Solid materials must be used so that the machine can withstand wind, rain and shocks. However, the drone must not be too heavy at the risk of not being able to fly. Elevation is actually the same setting as range, because it is cumulative with horizontal distance. So, when you choose a drone, you need to know if you plan to fly it high up or especially horizontally, that is to say over a length.

They are an integral part of life, yet many people avoid the topics of dying, death and mourning. All the more remarkable, then, that the University of Regensburg has been offering a master's degree program since the 2020/21 winter semester that explicitly addresses these existential areas. The course of study "Perimortal Sciences: dying, death and mourning interdisciplinary" is unique in Germany. It is led by Rupert M. Scheule, Professor of Moral Theology, who also helped develop the concept. He related to Petra Hemmelmann, editor of Communicatio Socialis, who decides for this unusual course of study, their reasons for doing so and what the students learn and discuss there.
