The Impact

The impact of natural disasters on individuals is substantial. Among the affected population in any disaster, children are identified as the most vulnerable group along with women, aged and disabled people. An estimated 77 million children under 15, on average, had their lives severely disrupted by a natural disaster or an armed conflict, each year, between 1991 and 2000 (Plan UK, 2003). Children are most affected since they loose the familiar environment, loss of parents, witness death of their loved ones, fear of reoccurrence of the disaster event. The impact of disaster on children of different age group is multiple times greater than that of the adults. This leads to various psychological problems in children (Dave et al., 2003). Disaster preparedness, through care givers, is one among the ways to reduce the distress of individuals followed by any disaster because it reduces the vulnerability factor that minimizes the impact of any disaster on the individual. A disaster preparedness program with special reference to psychosocial aspects was developed and implemented among the school children through teachers in Kanniyakumari District, Tamil Nadu, India, one of the severely affected areas in Tsunami. The current attempt was to standardize a disaster preparedness module focusing on preparing children to deal with their psychosocial issues before and after disaster in an effective manner. The outcome of disaster preparedness input through teachers and its reach out to the students was determined through an experimental research. The results reveal that the teachers and students from the experimental group gained significantly more knowledge on psychosocial disaster preparedness after implementation of the program in comparison to control group where the program was not implemented. The implications of the study points out the need to integrate psychosocial component of disaster preparedness in to the broader Community Based Disaster Preparedness (CBDP) programs.

Born Nikolai Vasil’evich Korneichukov, Chukovsky was a renowned writer, critic, and translator. He was born in St. Petersburg but moved to Odessa at the age of three. Chukovsky established a reputation as a journalist, literary critic, and translator prior to the Bolshevik Revolution, publishing essays in leading journals and founding his own satirical journal Signal (1905–1906). He experienced periodic persecution by the government both before and after the Revolution. Extremely prolific with wide-ranging literary tastes, Chukovsky published several collections of critical essays on the leading writers of the Silver Age. He studied the work of Anton Chekhov and Nikolai Nekrasov throughout his life. In 1962 he received the State Lenin Prize for The Mastery of Nekrasov [Masterstvo Nekrasova] (1953). Chukovsky served as the London correspondent for the Odessa Times (1903–1904) and later translated the works of Walt Whitman and Oscar Wilde, among many other English and American writers. In 1918 he was named head of the English section of World Literature Publishers, where he formulated general guidelines for literary translators, later published as The Art of Translation [Iskusstvo perevoda] (1936), and then as A High Art [Vyssokoe Iskusstvo] (1941). He became a popular writer of children’s literature, authoring a number of now-classic works, as well as writing a book on children’s speech and another on the Russian language. Chukovsky was awarded an honorary degree by Oxford University in 1962.

Abstract Before the COVID-19 pandemic, there was no real need to integrate outdoor education into translation studies, as it was easy to balance indoor and outdoor time before and after translation classes. However, the lockdown has deeply affected not only learning but also the mental and physical health of teachers and students, and outdoor education may contribute to recovery afterwards. The proposals in this paper focus on the benefits that being outdoors has for physical health, knowledge, social relations, mental health and attitude to learning. Moreover, being outdoors allows for social distancing. The activities presented in this paper are related to specialized translation, sight translation, simultaneous interpreting, consecutive interpreting, role-play interpreting, translation theory, song translation, theatre translation, machine translation post-editing, translators’ employability, translation project management and, last but not least, intermodal transcreation.

One of the mandates of SUCs is to extend assistance to its communities. This is achieved by conducting training programs & skills training when requested by LGUs. This study was conducted to evaluate the skills training provided by SUCs in the province of Tarlac to their respective communities to help the government in its attempt to alleviate poverty. This study used the input-output model in evaluating the skills trainings rendered by the SUCs in Tarlac Province from 2009 to 2011. The inputs to the programs were the skills trainings, the materials used for trainings, & the personnel involved, while the output evaluation looked into the benefits derived from the training. All school administrators and training personnel of the SUCs were included in the study along with 140 out of 602 training recipients who were randomly sampled. Results show that skills trainings were requested by the marginalized sectors of the province of Tarlac thru their Local Government Units. Among the in-demand training courses requested by the community recipients were Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW), Basic Culinary Arts, Small Engine Repair, Building wiring food processing and computer Literacy. The trainees were provided adequate tools and equipment while the trainers were highly qualified workforce certified by TESDA. Training recipients were personally and psychologically uplifted with self-fulfillment and improved self-esteem. There was a significant increase on the number of recipients who acquired jobs after they attended the trainings. The Wilcoxon signed ranks test between the difference on number of jobs before and after the trainings was significant at 0.27. This shows that the SUCs in Tarlac Province are providing the community with relevant trainings that give the community people necessary skills that can improve their chances of landing a job.Keywords: Social Sciences, poverty alleviation, input-output model, Evaluation, Extension,Services of the SUCs, Philippines

Educational psychology focuses on the laws of change in the knowledge, skills, and individual psychology of the educatees in the process of education and teaching. Writing teaching is a key and difficult point in literature teaching. Nowadays, it is common for students to be afraid and tired of writing in school literature education. In view of these problems, the present work optimizes the teaching mode of writing from the perspective of reconstructing the writing subject. Through literature research and interdisciplinary analysis, a questionnaire is designed to analyze the literary situation and the reconstruction of writing subjects in literary education. The questionnaire is aimed at three aspects, namely the hidden educational effect of teachers’ personality charm, the influencing factors of students’ psychology and students’ learning effect, and the influencing factors of psychology of the communication between teachers and students and teachers’ teaching effect. Then, the changes of students’ performance in literary class in these three aspects before and after using the teaching strategy of writing subject reconstruction are analyzed. Finally, the changes of students’ grades in the literary course are investigated. In this experiment, a total of 400 questionnaires were distributed, and a total of 389 questionnaires were collected. The survey results show that the number of students who feel the classroom atmosphere is active increases by 10%, the number of students who listen carefully and take notes increases by 7%, and 45% of students have improved their grades. Besides, after the implementation of the teaching strategy, most students change their attitude to the literature course, become more active, and significantly improve their motivation for learning. This study has a certain reference value for the analysis of literary situations and the reconstruction of writing subjects in literary education from the perspective of educational psychology.

?his paper presents a portion of the results obtained in a more extensive study dealing with monitoring of the work methods and the effects of an experimental implementation of the Trefoil pedagogical approach, developed based on pedagogical theories by the researchers from Belgrade. The Trefoil is based on using group work, creative play, openended tasks, critical dialogue, research work and students? involvement in projects for which teachers were trained through implementation and reflexive practice. The aim of this longitudinal study is to determine the effects of the Trefoil on encouraging initiative, cooperation and creativity in students. Research participants were all teachers and students of an urban primary school during one school year. Data on students? creative work were collected and compared before and after the experiment, obtained by expert observation of classes and a teacher and student questionnaire. Data were processed using one-way analysis of variance for repeated measures and two-way mixed analysis of variance. The results pointed to positive effects of the Trefoil approach, which, according to qualitative data, could probably have been bigger if the experiment had lasted longer. Different assessors noticed progress in encouraging students? creativity, but in different domains. The results have confirmed the justifiability of using the Trefoil approach, provided that its validity is tested by implementation in other educational contexts for the purposes of further research and enhancement of the initial conception.
