In historical aspect, the skill is among the key categories in the realm of human practice, which are often an object of different researches – psychological, pedagogical, and last but not least methodological. This is a fact, because the skill is a vital term for the description of productivity of learning experience at least in two dimensions – personally fundamental, guaranteeing its effective functioning in different situations and personally pragmatic, as a multi-level transformation of the cognitive experience, for the completion of certain social roles and the necessary qualities of the subject for this. The skill is a blend between those two dimensions of productivity both in higher education and in secondary school. The reflective skills are a structural and functional part of the transformation of the cognitive, affective, and psycho-motor experience and as such are included in the individual educational reality of the subject, and to a higher degree it defines it. This is the reason why the constructive-prognostic analysis of the reflective skill in the area of Methodology is pointing at the answer of the questions: What is this, what is its structure, how does it get integrated in the system of skills, how does it form and develop. The answers of those questions are basis of its methodological decoding in the process of training teachers and students in Biology. All of this describes the territory of the methodological context of analysing the reflective skill.

The article analyzes three pieces of Russian, Ukrainian and Polish contemporary literature on the subject of “the death in Venice”. The authors of the works, by referring to the literary tradition, consciously strengthen the myth of the "the city of death". In their interpretations this myth has two dimensions: the general and the individual. In the general dimension the vision of a dying beauty and fading power encourages reflection on the transitory nature of civilization. The individual dimension is based on the sense of identification of a dying character with a "dying" city, i.e. Venice.

The historical aspect and the essence of the term of readiness for work as a special mental state; a necessary and extremely important component of a successful professional life of a person is studied in the article. Readiness for a certain phenomenon helps person to adapt more quickly and to fulfill his duties more successfully. It contributes to the development of personality. The author points out that an analysis of the problem of readiness shows that the genesis of this concept is related to the development and understanding of the concept of "psychological readiness for work". It can be defined as permanent (as a result of labor education) or temporary (as a result of psychological training or psychological mobilization during this period) mental condition, which is caused due to the need for work. The question of the readiness of a specialist for professional activity is studied within such sciences as: psychology, pedagogy, philosophy. The author's determination of readiness is formulated during the conduction of the research. The author proposes to understand the readiness as a complex integrative formation, characterizing a particular mental state. It is a necessary and essential component of a successful professional life of the individual. It helps a person to adapt more quickly, to fulfill his professional duties more successfully; it promotes professional development of a specialist. Readiness includes not only professional characteristics and skills, but either personal trait. The conclusion is made that since readiness is a dynamic value, it means that its course is determined by age, by learning experience, individual abilities of the person and so on. The author summarizes the importance of the development of psychological readiness for work during the formation of the personality of a modern specialist. It is emphasized that professional readiness cannot be the same as a subjective professional readiness. According to the modern scientific researches the author distinguishes particular levels of professional readiness, such as: high (autonomy in setting and solving new tasks, adequacy of assessment and self-assessment of professionally important qualities, ability to effectively solve problems during time deficit, etc.); average (average level of expression of the mentioned qualities); and low (inability to set and solve complex problems independently, inadequate assessment and self-assessment of professionally important features, etc.

Accessibilitat i traducció audiovisual (Audiovisual Accessibility and Translation, in English) by Anna Matamala (2019) is a book written in Catalan which delves into the possibilities of making the audiovisual experience complete for all consumers by modifying content. With the rise of audiovisual and virtual content in the communication media, many people with disabilities such as hearing loss or visual impairment are left behind in the most run-of-the-mill experiences, especially those containing aural and visual elements as they cannot fully participate in the imaginary construct created by the voices, images and sounds.  This book not only intends to show how to accommodate films, series and TV programmes to the needs of the audience, namely the hard of hearing and the blind or partially blind, but it also provides a general overview of the job of the translator, including translation techniques, along with an analysis of media accessibility. Furthermore, the book proposes activities for the reader to reach their own conclusions and experience first-hand. In doing so, Matamala captures the reader’s attention and attains reader’s interaction and participation, making traditionally passive reading an active learning experience. Although this book covers the subject of translation, it is not only addressed to professional translators inasmuch as they are already acquainted with the information regarding translation techniques and professional aspects of the job. The audiences that, to my mind, would benefit from this book the most are translation teachers and students, due to its manual layout. Matamala has written and designed this book in a way that learning occurs gradually; that is to say, definitions and more general aspects of translation are presented and illustrated at the beginning of the book to culminate in the explanation of those techniques that cater for the consumers’ needs in order to accommodate content. The aim of content accommodation is to maximise the audiovisual experience in people with disabilities, namely subtitles, visual description or audio subtitling among others, in order to approach audiovisual content to them.

The effective implementation of the Higher European Education Area has meant a change regarding the focus of the learning process, being now the student at its very center. This shift of focus requires a strong involvement and fluent communication between teachers and students to succeed. Considering the difficulties associated to motivate students to take a more active role in the learning process, we explore how the use of a software tool can help both actors to improve the learning experience. We present a tool that can help students to obtain instantaneous feedback with respect to their progress in the subject as well as providing teachers with useful information about the evolution of knowledge acquisition with respect to each of the subject areas. We compare the performance achieved by students in two academic years: results show an improvement in overall performance which, after observing graphs provided by our tool, can be associated to an increase in students interest in the subject.

Two experiments concerned with simultaneously abstracting information about different dimensions from the same display were carried out. In experiment 1 the subject was briefly shown a complex display containing coloured forms with three values of each dimension. Instead of identifying the individual items in the display (such as red triangle, blue square, etc), the subject was to abstract and report in any order the different dimensional values (e.g. red and blue for colour, and triangle and square for form). The results showed that the accuracy of performance was independent of the way in which two dimensions were combined, whether they were orthogonal, partially correlated, or completely correlated. The results showed that colour and form were processed independently and that the perception of one was not facilitated or interfered with by the presence of the other in the same display. In experiment 2 various numbers of values from each dimension were combined orthogonally within each display. The subject's task was the same as in the previous experiment except that the order of report of the two dimensions was specified for each subject. Suppose the dimension reported first is X, and that reported second is Y. The results showed that the number of X values not only detrimentally affected the accuracy of reporting the X values, it also reduced the accuracy of reporting Y owing to memory impairment. The number of Y values, on the other hand, affected only the report of Y values. The results were discussed in terms of a parallel-processing system which proposes no capacity limitation.

Abstract. The importance of various trait dimensions explaining positive global self-esteem has been the subject of numerous studies. While some have provided support for the importance of agency, others have highlighted the importance of communion. This discrepancy can be explained, if one takes into account that people define and value their self both in individual and in collective terms. Two studies ( N = 367 and N = 263) examined the extent to which competence (an aspect of agency), morality, and sociability (the aspects of communion) promote high self-esteem at the individual and the collective level. In both studies, competence was the strongest predictor of self-esteem at the individual level, whereas morality was the strongest predictor of self-esteem at the collective level.

Why does writing of the death penalty demand the first-person treatment that it also excludes? The article investigates the role played by the autobiographical subject in Derrida's The Death Penalty, Volume I, where the confessing ‘I’ doubly supplements the philosophical investigation into what Derrida sees as a trend toward the worldwide abolition of the death penalty: first, to bring out the harmonies or discrepancies between the individual subject's beliefs, anxieties, desires and interests with respect to the death penalty and the state's exercise of its sovereignty in applying it; and second, to provide a new definition of the subject as haunted, as one that has been, but is no longer, subject to the death penalty, in the light of the worldwide abolition currently underway.
