The problem of research is the importance and need for learning communication as a teaching discipline in studies for classroom teaching, which is theoretically studied from the angle of university teaching, study of communication science and reflective practice of teachers and on an empirical level based on students’ perception of classroom teaching. The research started from the general assumption that the contents from communication science are important for performing the teaching profession, but that it is insufficiently studied in the studies for class teaching. We also started from special assumptions that the research will single out the factors that indicate the importance of learning content from communication studies in studies for primary education and that it will be determined that there is no significant difference in students’ assessments of the importance and need for learning content from communication studies. For class teaching depending on the enrolled year of study. In order to determine that, in October 2021, on a sample of 108 students of the Study Program for Classroom Teaching at the Faculty of Teacher Education in Prizren - Leposavic, the research presented in this paper was conducted. Data collected by the CSTD-SCC Scalar (〈 = .845) were processed by factor analysis and analysis of variance. Factor analysis singled out three factors: 1) the diversity of content, 2) the importance of learning and 3) the need to learn content from communication studies in the classroom. Analysis and analysis of variance showed that there is no significant difference in the assessments of primary school students about the importance and need to learn content from communication studies in primary school studies, depending on the enrolled year of study. He concludes that teaching contents in communication science are important for future teachers, that they are differently represented in study programs for classroom teaching in the Republic of Serbia, that students generally agree in assessments of the importance and need to learn communication science in classroom studies, which indicates the need to change and supplements of study programs for class teaching with teaching contents in communication science and the need for professional development of teachers in order to acquire the necessary knowledge in communication science. Keywords: teaching profession, teacher, communication in the classroom, socialcommunication competencies, clear and loud expression, quality listening.

The study aimed to reveal attitudes in primary school teachers and their female teachers in the Mubarak Al-Kabeer educational district in Kuwait towards the teaching profession in light of some variables. To achieve the study's objectives, the researcher chose a random sample consisting of (400) teachers, and the researcher also designed a questionnaire consisting of (50) A paragraph that was judged, and the necessary honesty and consistency were given to it. The study found that all members of the study sample had a negative attitude towards the teaching profession and found no statistically significant difference between the average grades of primary school teachers and their teachers according to their literary and scientific specializations in the direction towards the teaching profession. In contrast, the study results showed that there are statistically significant differences between the average grades of teachers and the degrees of teachers towards the teaching profession and for the benefit of female teachers. The results also showed statistically significant differences for years of experience and in favor of those with experience (less than five years) in the direction towards the teaching profession. Therefore, the study recommended that the opportunity for teachers with long experience be given encouraging opportunities, motivation, and working to inform them of their importance, assigning them to tasks that satisfy their needs and desires, as well as spreading the spirit of respect for the teaching profession in the hearts of members of society as well as in the hearts of teachers who practice the profession of teaching.   Received: 2 September 2021 / Accepted: 30 October 2021 / Published: 5 November 2021

The Subject

To compare hiking stick use on lateral stability while balancing with or without a load (15-kg internal frame backpack) under conditions of no stick, 1 stick, and 2 sticks for six trials 15 volunteers ages 19 to 23 years ( M = 21.7 yr.) were tested six separate times on a stability platform. During randomly ordered, 1-min. trials, the length of time (sec.) the subject maintained balance (±10° of horizontal) and the number of deviations beyond 10° were recorded simultaneously. Backpack and hiking sticks were individually adjusted for each subject. A 2 × 3 repeated factor analysis of variance indicated that subjects balanced significantly longer both with and without a load while using 2 hiking sticks than 1 or 0 sticks. Significantly fewer deviations beyond 10° were found when subjects were without a load and using 1 or 2 sticks versus when they used none, and no significant difference in the number of deviations were found between 1 and 2 hiking sticks. When subjects were equipped with a load significantly improved balance was found only between the 2 sucks and no sticks. Balance was significantly enhanced by using hiking sticks, and two sticks were more effective than one while carrying a load. An increase in maintenance of static balance may reduce the possibility of falling and injury while standing on loose alpine terrain.

The intra-and interpopulation variability of six populations of Tulipa uniflora (L.) Besser ex Baker at the northern limit of distribution in the Angara steppes over 12 morphometric parameters was studied by the principal components method and single-factor analysis of variance. It is established that the vectors characterizing the gradients of the change in the morphometric parameters are divided into two groups: vegetative and generative, which are among themselves in direct dependence. Based on the single-factor analysis of variance results for all morphometric parameters, a significant difference is observed between populations of T. uniflora in the Angara Region. On the one hand, this is a consequence of anthropogenic impact on the population, and on the other – the relic nature of the species.

The most common shortcomings of distance learning in the conditions of the global pavidemic Covid-19 are the main problem of this research paper. The research started with the general assumption that distance learning was implemented in the younger grades of primary school, during the global panidemic of Covid-19, without prior preparation of participants. Consequently, it lacked the expected efficiency, especially in learning and participation of younger students. This research was conducted with the aim to point out the most common disruptive factors of distance learning during the global Covid-19 panidemic. It was also assumed that efficiency was significantly connected to the length of teaching experience of the teachers and to the area where the primary school in which distance learning was realized was located. In order to research this assumptions, an online research was conducted during the first semester of the school year 2020/2021, on the sample of 126 teachers employed in the area of the City of Nis. The results are presented in this paper. Data was collected by RFND Scale (α= 0.082) and were processed by factor analysis, Mann Whitney U test and analysis of variance.

Teachers Attitudes

This study explored 270 student-teachers' attitudes towards teaching profession in two public sector universities in Pakistan. A self-developed questionnaire was used to collect data. The questionnaire included 5-point Likert scaled items. The results of an initial descriptive analysis showed that 'teaching as a source of lifelong learning received the highest positive response. While 'I chose a teaching career because I had no other choice' was the lowest. Exploratory factor analysis revealed that there were three major motivational factors in choosing teaching career: (1) Relatively easy availability (2) being more respected job, and (3) teaching being a relaxing job. Comparisons on demographics showed no significant difference between universities, as t (268) = 3.476, p<.05. Gender wise difference was statistically significant, as t (268) = -2.589, p<.05. The respondents' academic background had no significant effect on their motivation towards a teaching career.

The Impact

Stress in caregivers may affect the healthcare recipients receive. We examined the impact of stress experienced by 45 adult caregivers of their elderly demented parents. The participants completed a 32-item questionnaire about the impact of experienced stress. The questionnaire also asked about interventions that might help to reduce the impact of stress. After exploratory factor analysis, we reduced the 32-item questionnaire to 13 items. Results indicated that caregivers experienced stress, anxiety, and sadness. Also, emotional, but not financial or professional, well-being was significantly impacted. There was no significant difference between the impact of caregiver stress on members from the sandwich generation and those from the nonsandwich generation. Meeting with a social worker for resource availability was identified most frequently as a potentially helpful intervention for coping with the impact of stress.

Development And Validation

Abstract. We describe the development and validation of an instrument for measuring the affective component of primary school teachers’ attitudes towards self-regulated learning. The questionnaire assesses the affective component towards those cognitive and metacognitive strategies that are especially effective in primary school. In a first study (n = 230), the factor structure was verified via an exploratory factor analysis. A confirmatory factor analysis with data from a second study (n = 400) indicated that the theoretical factor structure is appropriate. A comparison with four alternative models identified the theoretically derived factor structure as the most appropriate. Concurrent validity was demonstrated by correlations with a scale that measures the degree to which teachers create learning environments that enable students to self-regulate their learning. Retrospective validity was demonstrated by correlations with a scale that measures teachers’ experiences with self-regulated learning. In a third study (n = 47), the scale’s concurrent validity was tested with scales measuring teachers’ evaluation of the desirability of different aspects of self-regulated learning in class. Additionally, predictive validity was demonstrated via a binary logistic regression, with teachers attitudes as predictor on their registration for a workshop on self-regulated learning and their willingness to implement a seven-week training program on self-regulated learning.

Sustainable Development (SD) is a rich, challenging and thought-provoking construct in social sciences. The main purpose of this paper was to identify and explore the role played by primary school teachers in building up the idea of sustainable development (SD) among students. This paper was intended to identify that how a teacher can successfully execute the concept of SD by influencing students’ minds at the primary level. Quantitative survey technique were utilized for data collection. All the primary school teachers of Lahore division comprised the population of the study. Through multistage sampling technique, 352 primary school teachers were selected as participants of the study. A self-developed SD questionnaire incorporating four major factors (teachers’ awareness, pedagogy, curricular and co-curricular activities) with Cronbach’s alpha value = .93 was used to measure the role of teachers in building the sustainability concept among students at primary level. The results indicated a significant mean score difference among SD scores of teachers, sector wise (private and public). Furthermore, the results also reconnoitered the significant difference (p=.04) between the mean scores of female and male teachers in building up the SD concept in students’ minds.
