Academic mobility facilitates interactions of different scientific schools and collectives, influences formation of academic relations and indirectly affects positions of universities in academic rankings. Mobility helps establish networks of professional contacts, and that might have a positive impact on the level of research, allowing efficient academic collaboration, access to results of different studies and collected data. Mobility is an important issue not only for universities, but also for researchers because their collaboration with the colleagues and participation in joint projects characterize them for other members of the academic community, and that increases the value of academic networking. However, the way of evolution of the institution of networking raises various questions about the objectivity of the recruiting process and advantages that some candidates get over their rivals. The purpose of this article is identification and analysis of those factors that force the institution of mobility in the Russian academic reality to work against general social interests and the interests of universities.

Bełza-Gajdzica Magdalena, Able-bodied vs. disabled people – infrahumanisation of students with disabilities(a case study). Culture – Society – Education no 2(16) 2019, Poznań 2019, pp. 71–83, Adam Mickiewicz University Press. ISSN 2300-0422. DOI 10.14746/kse.2019.16.5. The article discusses the phenomenon of infrahumanisation in academic relations between able-bodied people (both students and academics) and students with disabilities. The main goal of the article is to show that infrahumanisation may make it difficult for young people with disabilities to build their capital for the future in the form of interpersonal relations. The paper uses Arnold van Gennep’s concept of the rite of passage as a model of entering adulthood, and focuses specifically on the stage of university education as the one which completes the transition into adulthood, and marks the beginning of a “normal” life (i.e. one consistent with social expectations). The phenomenon of infrahumanisation shown here on various levelsof academic life disrupts this process, and may hinder the inclusion/integration of disabled people into society. The relations between disabled students and non-disabled people who are part of the academic community in which the students operate may, however, also bridge the distance between the two groups, and thus contribute to paving the way to a respectful society, i.e. the way of equality.

Abstract: The Prohabitions on Wearing Niqab (Face Covers for Mulism Women) in Higher Education Perspectives of Sadd al-dzarî`ah. Wearing niqab for women in colleges has recently become a polemic. This happened after two Islamic universities in Indonesia made a policy of prohibition for the academic community to wear the niqab on campus. Pros cons arise to address the policy of the rector II college. In the study of Jurisprudence, Hanafi, Maliki, and Shafi’i schools agree that women’s faces are not aurat (private parts of human’s body that cannot be exposed or should be covered according to Islam). Only the Hambali school of thought which says that the whole body of a woman, including the face, is aurat. Therefore, outside the prayers only Hambali schools that require covering the face for women by using niqab. While the other three schools of thought argue that wearing niqab is considered Sunnah (the way of the prophet), and can become mandatory if it is feared to cause slander. Since wearing niqab is categorized a khilafiah, the universities is entitled to establish a policy which prohibits its students to wear niqab: as long as this is believed and based on the strong and real reasons for its positive impact on the college and the student themselves. This action may be justified and appropriate under the sadd al-dzarî`ah proposition, as a preventive and anticipatory measure to prevent potential harm and damage that will result from wearing the veil on campus.

This article introduces the possible usage of the developed programming discourse that can be used to support training in the digital logic area. The discourse merges several programming paradigms into one solution. The intended learners are secondary school students focused on digital system programming. The main intent is to find out whether digital logic curriculum based on Digital Circuits Based Logical Programming (DCBLP) inheritance has positive impact on the students and the way they explore the digital logic itself. Students’ cognitive and affective areas are in the scope of this preliminary research and questionnaires and cognitive tests will help to support the research. Experimental and control groups were used to gather relevant records. To analyse and support the interpretation of the data gathered by questionnaires, the chi-square test (two-tailed) has been used. ANOVA has been used to evaluate data for the achievement test results. The preliminary research revealed there is a possibility of using developed programming discourse DCBLP in digital logic training. Students claim overall usefulness of the discourse in the training; the strong motivation power of the programming discourse itself has not been discovered. From the test we conclude that the performance of the students trained using new programming discourse is significantly better. It is possible to use more different programming paradigms, such as imperative and declarative, in one solution to support training in the area of digital logic. Such solutions can enhance the way the students deal with the programming languages and also supports interdisciplinary relationships.

Interest group litigation is often seen as pitting social interests against the state. This view matches a wider perspective that judicial review is a battle between state and social actors. Recently, neo-institutionalist and postpluralists have led political scientists to question the assumptions that underlie these traditional views of judicial review and interest group litigation. If the state is an active patron of interest group litigation then the way we see interest group litigation and judicial review must change. This article traces the history of the Court Challenges Program of Canada and concludes that the Program's evolution challenges the traditional views of judicial review and interest group litigation. It shows an embedded state at war with itself in court.

The ways of informing students about the activities which are organized on a faculty or university level daily present an increasing challenge. The very aim of this work is to analyze and compare ways of informing students of the Faculty of Education about the sport activities on the faculty and university level. The way of informing students about the activities will be compared with the ways of informing about general sport activities in order to identify possible deviation from two different types of activities. Promotion being one of the marketing elements, so is the appliance of adequate promotion tools very important in all social processes. Numerous examples, especially in sport, proved that the activities of the sport participants will not be successful without the adequate use of promotion. University sport in developed countries surely occupies an important place in the academic community; from that point of view it is very important to determine the way of managing the university sport. The university sport in the Republic of Croatia is becoming more significant element of students' activities every day, and the promotion contributes to that. Apart from comparing the ways of informing about sport and regular activities, this paper will provide the time comparison of the mentioned researches between 2014 and 2020. The comparison of the same data with the time lag will provide the best picture of the changes in the ways of informing in a 6-year-period. The obtained results have shown that even after six years, students continue to prefer certain communication channels, i.e. they remain primary.

Traditional classrooms based solely on textbooks and print-based reading material no longer fit ways students gain knowledge. Advances and innovations in technology are changing the way students of all ages learn. The latest innovation, smaller tablet style computers such as iPads, is further changing the way technology is used in schoolrooms. Popularity of these devices and the ability to download applications to them opens a world of uses for such devices in classrooms. The appropriate use of these devices and choice of appropriate applications for educational purposes provides a new realm of research opportunities for scholars. Educators and administrators need to feel confident capital expenditures on tablet devices will fulfill the promise of a positive impact in classrooms. This chapter explores the readability of one of the more popular applications for iPads in an attempt to discover whether reading levels of the application are appropriate for students in elementary, middle, and high school.

The Fair Work Act, 2009 has provisions that require the parties to bargain in good faith. ‘Good faith’ is difficult to codify, and analysis of whether those who bargain comply with the provisions is typically conducted using a legal perspective. This article adopts a behavioural perspective by conducting negotiation simulations and shows that priming negotiators with good faith requirements has a positive impact on the way they negotiated. The article contributes to understanding the efficacy of the good faith bargaining provision in fostering productive enterprise bargaining outcomes. Thus, the article will be of interest to policy makers and practitioners including those in the Australian Government’s Fair Work Commission, as well as those interested in workplace bargaining.

Introduction: Adults living in bateyes (i.e., sugarcane plantation villages) in the Dominican Republic have minimal access to health care services. Hypertension (HTN) is a serious and often unrecognized health problem among batey residents. The Jonas Batey Hypertension Program was built on existing social networks to address the detection and treatment of HTN. Methods: An ongoing community-based participatory research endeavor involves a partnership among three organizations and collaboration with promotoras who engage their batey communities in a mobile HTN screening and treatment program. Adults are screened and, if indicated, are treated with antihypertensive medications. Data collection includes project documentation, participant observation, demographic data, blood pressure (BP) measurements, and pill counts. Results: To date, 243 adults have received HTN treatment in four batey communities. A within-group, as-treated, repeated-measures, pre-/postanalysis showed that among participants who had been receiving antihypertensive treatment for 12 months ( n = 70), there was a significant decrease in BP ( p < .005). Conclusion: Results of an interim data analysis indicate that the program model has been implemented successfully and is making a positive impact on BP control. Evaluation is ongoing with regard to the long-term HTN-related health outcomes of batey residents. Ensuring program sustainability is an important consideration for the future.

Drawing on Russell McCutcheon’s (2003) redescription of the theological category of theodicy as a socio-political rhetoric that functions to conserve social interests, this article examines the way that American Christian Zionists employ theodicies to explain historical, contemporary, and anticipated acts of violence. It argues that violence is central to Christian Zionists’ conception of God’s revelation, and thus to their identity. Rather than requiring the intellectual wrangling often associated with religious explanations for why violence is inflicted on or by a certain group of people, Christian Zionists identify acts of violence as either God’s punishment for insufficient support for Israel, or as God’s vengeance upon those who wish to harm his chosen people. In any given context, Christian Zionists draw on acts of violence to reaffirm their truth claims, and to ensure their desired social order is maintained.
