The article deals with the issues of search, development, and support of gifted students in 21 leading Russian universities, which are the participants of the Project 5-100. Project 5-100 is a state program to assist universities, which is being implemented in Russia since 2013. The article aims to study the experience of solving some problematic issues of work with gifted students in some leading Russian universities. The material for the research was the “Road maps” (development program) of each university, as well as information from the official websites of universities. The analysis resulted in the model of interaction with intellectually gifted young people «search-development-support». Mechanisms to stimulate this category of people were systematized. The distinctive feature in the realization of the given policy is the creation of the special centers for work with gifted youth in 5 universities.

The current study aims at better understanding the factors that promote and hinder chemistry teachers in teaching a gifted student in their regular chemistry class. In addition, it provides evidence of ways that teachers perceive a professional development course dealing with a gifted student in a mixed-abilities science classroom. Eighty-four photonarratives were collected from 14 chemistry teachers that participated in the course about teaching a gifted student in a regular classroom (41 promoting, 43 hindering factors). Factors that concern chemistry education specifically as well as general practices were raised by the teachers. The teachers were asked to “take a picture” (namely, of an external object or person); they considered most of the factors to be internal factors that are dependent on themselves and therefore concluded that they have the power to influence them. The internal factors can be addressed in the PD course; however the external factors should be managed by the school principal and district educational administration.

This paper deals with estimating possible effects in terms of mitigating the social and environmental impacts which could be achieved by operating the rail freight train instead of the road truck services in the given Trans-European transport corridor during the specified period of time. In general, these impacts embrace noise, congestion, traffic incidents/accidents (Safety), and energy consumption and related GHG emissions (Greenhouse Gases). Each type of impact, specific to particular mode, is analyzed and modeled, thus enabling its quantitative estimation and intermodal comparison under the given circumstances. In particular, energy consumption and related GHG emissions and their costs have been under focus. The total costs of the above-mentioned impacts in the given case have also been estimated. Thus, they both represent a solid base for the assessment of the social-environmental feasibility of the future similar cases.

The article analyses the features of the methodology for organising physical culture and health-improving work with students with impaired health in Russian universities. The work experience in this direction of physical culture teachers of the Institute of Pedagogy and Psychology of Kostroma State University is presented. The methodology of organising physical culture and health-improving work with students with impaired health in terms of distance education via e-mail is considered; the WhatsApp system popular among young people; Zoom platform; YouTube video hosting. Within the framework of this problem, a digital self-observation diary of students with impaired health has been developed and tested. The tables provide information about students with weakened health of the Institute of Pedagogy and Psychology of KSU, those who started and did not start physical excercises in a distance format and the main reasons for their refusal to practice in a distance format. The author's model of the organisation of distance physical culture and health-improving work with students with health problems is described, including: purpose, objectives, principles, means of physical culture and health-improving work with students with impaired health, as well as features of distance interaction between students and teachers; factors ensuring the implementation of this type of activity and elements of a comprehensive assessment. In the conclusion of the article, conclusions are drawn about the results of the study.

Gifted students can encounter anxiety-provoking stressors throughout their day. Developing effective anxiety management skills allows them to better navigate these challenges. Concepts from neuroscience help us better understand responses to anxiety and can assist gifted youth and those working with them in recognizing how and when to best apply anxiety management strategies. This article reviews these concepts and integrating them into the classroom environment to assist with this learning process. In addition, it examines an evidenced-based anxiety management intervention that has been found to be efficacious for gifted youth, Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT). Results of recent EFT research are reviewed and the steps to learning EFT are outlined.

Development Assessment

The development of component machine building in mining regions can become a key factor in the economic diversification, as well as the implementation of the import substitution program in Russia. The aim of this study is to develop an action plan (“road map”). It is also to assess the possibility of developing component machine-building in the single-industry mining region (on the example of Kemerovo region). The objectives of the study include formulation of goals and objectives of the “road map”. The task is also to identify the key elements and main directions of the component machine-building development, to form the action plan taking into account the time factor. The results of the road map provide an information base for the initial stage of the component machine building development program. The production capabilities of the region, domestic demand for components and assemblies of the working equipment, personnel needs, and opportunities for placing innovative business as a resident of TOSER in single-industry town, all these should be taken into account.

First Time

The world is experiencing a period of unprecedented demographic change. For the first time in human history, marked disparities in age structures exist across the globe. Around 40 percent of the world's population lives in countries with significant numbers of elderly citizens. In contrast, the majority of the world's people live in developing countries with very large numbers of young people as a proportion of the total population. Yet, demographically, most of the world's states with young populations are aging, and many are doing so quickly. This first-of-its kind systematic theoretical and empirical examination of how these demographic transitions influence the likelihood of interstate conflict shows that countries with a large number of young people as a proportion of the total population are the most prone to international conflict, whereas states with the oldest populations are the most peaceful. Although societal aging is likely to serve as a force for enhanced stability in most, and perhaps all, regions of the world over the long term, the road to a “demographic peace” is likely to be bumpy in many parts of the world in the short to medium term.
