This article highlights the importance of the concepts of media literacy, and digital and informational literacy to understand the multimodal meaning of multiliteracies and their interfaces. An analogy with Babel is used to understand the different ways in which this concept articulates the linguistic, visual, audio, spatial, and gestural dimensions in digital culture. In this framework, the question of convergence is highlighted in learning experiences undertaken in formal and informal contexts. To qualify the meaning of this learning for the subject, the article mentions the concept of personal literacy to locate the importance of subjectivity in the interactions that the multiliteracies offer. Finally, in an exercise of representation of the components of the multiliteracies, the article presents a diagram that highlights the importance of mediation and the forms of appropriation that express concepts and experiences in search of a transformative pedagogical practice, as an opportunity to understand the multiliteracies as a condition of dialog, expression and participation in the culture.

Method Analysis

Introduction. Based on modern social trends, the demand becomes not only for professionally trained people, but also for the level of their general culture, value system and, ultimately, intelligence. At the same time, there is no place for intellectuals and educating intellectuals in program documents on educational activities, although this task is very logical for the pedagogical practice of a developed society. This work presents the experience of the author's analysis of the psychological nature of the intelligence of an officer. Consistently considering the essence and structure of such a complex phenomenon, the structure and the real functioning of the values that allow characterizing the subject as an intellectual are ascertained.Materials and methods. As the main research methodology, the authors use sociological (I.S. Kon), culturological adapted to solve the problems of this work (M.S. Kagan), historiographic (A.V. Popov), systemic (I.V. Blauberg, V.A. Lektersky, V.N. Sadovsky, S.L. Rubinstein, M.S. Kagan, N.V. Kuzmina) and functional approaches (P.K. Anokhin, M.S. Kagan, N. Wiener). The main research methods were: hypothetical-deductive method; analysis, synthesis, comparison, analogy and abstraction; systemic method and modeling.Results. The result of the study is that the authors identified and justified the structural psychological qualities of intelligence as the subjective characteristics of an officer and examined the basic mechanisms of formation of intellectual values.Discussion and Conclusions. The required criteria for being intelligent as a  subject characteristics of an officer is the level of education (self education)of an officer, his manners, the scope of his values , existential assessment –correlating every fact he faces with general life-span problems of objective reality, having respect for values of others and being ready for talk to employees and  superiors as well as the representatives of other social groups, other cultures, nationalities, confessions and professions which requires dialog in search of optimal forms and options of interaction. The cornerstone principle for intelligence of the officer are, therefore, his education and upbringing, ideological conviction in his own values and readiness for self-sacrifice for their sake.

Game Elements

AbstractGamification is regularly defined as the use of game elements in non-gaming contexts. However, discussions in the context of the pedagogical value of gamification suggest controversies on various levels. While on the one hand, the potential is seen in the design of joyful learning environments, critics point out the pedagogical dangers or the problems related to optimizing working life. It becomes apparent that the assumptions guiding action on the subject matter of gamification in educational contexts differ, which leads to different derivations for pedagogical practice—but also allows for different perspectives on initially controversial positions. Being aware of these assumptions is the claim of a reflexive pedagogy. With regard to the pedagogical use of gamifying elements and their empirical investigation, there are three main anchor points to consider from a reflexive stance: (a) the high context-specificity of the teaching undertaken and (b) the (non-)visibility of the design elements and (c) the (non-)acceptance of the gamified elements by the students. We start by providing a discussion of the definitional discourse on what is understood as gamification leading to our argument for a non-definition of gamification. We describe the potential of this non-definition of gamification and exemplify its use in a gamified concept of teaching police recruits professional reflexivity. The concept features the narrative of a potential crime that has been undertaken and that students decide for themselves if they want to engage with it.

A Priority

During some of the most recent years, in Portugal there has been a public debate going on about the different roles of television near some of the youngest sectors of the population, either as a priority medium of entertainment, as a privileged medium of information, as a possible medium of learning experiences, or just as a simple (or rather complex) «baby sitter». This debate that seemed to become a promising one, especially at the time of the implementation of a new regulation entity (Regulation Entity for the Social Communication) faded away and did not contribute for any deeper knowledge of the problem. Let us see why. Nos últimos anos, em Portugal, tem-se desenvolvido algum debate público em torno dos diferentes papéis da televisão junto de alguns dos sectores mais jovens da população, seja enquanto meio prioritário de entretenimento, seja enquanto meio privilegiado de informação, seja enquanto possível meio de aprendizagens, ou mesmo enquanto simples (ou bastante complexa) «baby sitter». Este debate, que a seu tempo foi de certo modo promissor pelo facto de se ir estabelecer no panorama televisivo português uma nova entidade reguladora (Entidade Reguladora para a Comunicação Social) acabou por se esvair e não contribuir grandemente para qualquer conhecimento mais aprofundado do problema. Vejamos porquê.

The Subject

For years the teaching of health education has always been a problem in the Nigerian schools either due to the absence of the subject on the curriculum or inadequate professional preparation of teachers to handle it. This study introduces an extracurricular approach using four endemic diseases as an example in the teaching of health education in five secondary schools. The findings revealed that: 1) teachers can be successfully used as informal agents in the school environment if exposed to appropriate health education techniques, and 2) endemic diseases can be controlled through the provision of learning experiences in the school environment where feasible.

In pedagogical literature health pedagogy is trated as a subdiscipline of pedagogy, within which the theoretical foundations of modern health education are created. It has theoretical support in classical social pedagogy. The subject of research of health pedagogy is interdisciplinary and it covers issues related to a social health reality, which are analyzed from a pedagogical perspective and on the basis of the assumptions of modern philosophy of health and in connection with the achievements of medical and social sciences in the areas related to the protection and promotion of health. The article presents the formation of the theoretical foundations of pedagogical practice focused on health goals and the concepts and methods of practicing health pedagogy that are emerging today.

Face To Face

Collaborative learning (CL) is becoming increasingly recognised as a popular pedagogical practice in higher education that promotes socialization and learning among students. However, the use of collaborative learning does risk placing too much responsibility on the learner and reducing face-to-face interaction with the educator. Therefore, there is a need for educators to find a balance in the interaction and engagement with students to help improve their perceived collaborative learning experiences.

The priority direction in modern conditions of musical and pedagogical activity is the training of highly qualified specialists. The main factor of successful methodological work in the field of wind instrument performance is the study of scientific achievements in physiology, pedagogy, and psychology. Currently, in the pedagogical practice of wind art, there are a number of issues that require a conceptual understanding of the physiological components of the voice and articulation apparatus, as well as the dependence of sound quality on these organs. The subject of the analysis is the correct functioning of the larynx as a resonator. The analysis of scientific and theoretical developments in the field of sound formation on wind instruments allowed us to explain a number of pedagogical approaches in the practice of musical and performing arts
