When it comes to presenting research results, the usual approach is to use PowerPoint or similar slide applications, or to opt for alternative presentation tools. A central question is how well the knowledge is transferred and to what extent the target audience is addressed emotionally. Based on a 2*2 factorial design, the effects of presentation form (PowerPoint slide presentation vs. explainer video) and interaction (no interaction vs. interaction by means of additional questions on the topic) were investigated. Overall, the presentation factor is more important for learning success than the interaction factor and explainer videos perform significantly better than the PowerPoint presentation. This applies to the objective and subjective learning success, but also to the emotional appeal and the increase in engagement, interest and other cognitive activities. The effects of the interaction factor are relatively low, achieving minor improvements in combination with the PowerPoint presentation, while no statistically significant and relevant effects were found in combination with the explainer video.

The article discusses the current research results related to the contents and practice of developing secondary school students’ methodological culture. At present, the Russian pedagogical community is aware that a need to form school students’ methodological culture by developing systemic thinking through the assimilation of subject- and meta-concepts really exists. Moreover, objective conditions have been created to trigger the process. However, the review of scientific and teacher training resources, which are close to the problem under consideration, shows that the strategies for mastering and managing knowledge while performing students’ information and cognitive activity as well as its self-regulation are largely not worked out and are covered in pedagogical literature in a very limited way. The study displayed is the author’s attempt to compensate, at least partially, the existing gap in this sphere. In the context of forming students’ methodological culture, the main role is allocated to assimilating generalized subject- and metaconcepts while performing information and cognitive activity that is necessary for students to systematize knowledge in the subject areas being studied and that is focused on current educational needs and long-term prospects. The most effective ways to master subject- and meta-concepts can be realized while both solving complex cognitive educational tasks and conceptualizing educational situations with the help of cognitive and metacognitive strategies. The info-educational environment the electronic textbook has is taken for an instrumental field to implement the approach described. The author hopes that the research results will interest teaching practitioners, methodologists and other representatives of the Russian pedagogical community who will also be able to share their experience in this sphere.

Binaural auditory fusion of 108 children (4, 6, and 8 years old) was studied using three lists of monosyllabic words (WIPI) presented at two sensation levels (30 and 40 dB). The words were processed to produce three bandwidth conditions (100, 300, 600 Hz) and were administered via three presentation modes (binaural fusion 1, diotic, binaural fusion 2). Results showed improved discrimination scores with increasing age, sensation level, and filter bandwidth. Diotic scores were better than binaural fusion scores for the narrower bandwidth conditions, but the diotic enhancement effect was seriously compromised in the widest bandwidth (600 Hz) condition. The results confirmed the contention that prior research results were equivocal due, in large measure, to procedural variability. Methods for reducing such variability and enhancing the clinical viability of binaural fusion tasks are suggested.

The aims of this study were: (1) to identify an increase in students' understanding of the value of mutual cooperation through the use of reader response rules in Indonesian Language Learning (KRPDPBI); (2) identifying the use of the reader response principle in Indonesian Language learning (KRPDPBI) there are differences between male and female students. The design of this study used a quasi-experimental study with two different methods. The results showed that (1) the achievement of the score of understanding the value of mutual cooperation for students taught by KRPDPBI was better than for students taught by regular learning according to the curriculum; (2) the achievement of the understanding of the value of male students' mutual cooperation is no better than that of female students.

Using petroleum ether to extract the fermentative fluid (bio-slurry), then to get the inhibition mechanism of it, and infer which is the main component in inhibition mechanism of biogas. The conclusion found by the experiment is that fat soluble substance is better than water soluble substance in inhibition mechanism, and fat soluble substance is close to 75% biogas fermentation fluid, while water soluble substance is worst. That is to say, the main subject in inhibition mechanism is hided in the fat soluble substance.

In this paper, the mechanical property experiments of concrete based on the seawater and sea sand have been carried in different raw materials preparation and different conservation environments. The results show that the early strength and late strength of concrete based on seawater and sea sand are better than concrete based on freshwater and sand. There is no significant strength decreased for concrete based on seawater and sea sand under accelerated alternating wet and dry conditions. For concrete based on seawater and sea sand mixed with admixture, the downward trend of late strength is significantly delayed, the late strength of concrete based on the seawater and sea sand mixed with slag gets the most obvious growth trend, while the late strength of seawater and sea sand concrete mixed with fly ash gets the largest increment.

AbstractIn order to realize comprehensive and massive treatment of boron mud secondary resource, fundamental study on boron mud applied to oxidized pellets production as additive was carried out in the paper under laboratory conditions. The effects of boron mud on the performance of oxidized pellets were investigated systemically, and boron mud was combined with other boron-rich material innovatively. The results showed that, within certain limits, boron mud can improve properties of oxidized pellets. The bentonite content decreased to 0.3 % when adding 1.0 % boron mud additive and the pellets met blast furnace requirements. With the combination additive content 0.8 %, bentonite content can be further decreased to 0.2 %, and the pellets properties were better than base pellet. Therefore, it was an effective way to reduce environmental pollution and optimize blast furnace operation by developing boron mud secondary resource as pellets additive.

To analyze the earth pressure of corrugated steel culvert under high fill embankment, a field test was taken and the change law was got with the filling height increasing, the force state when geotechnical grilles were laid on the top of corrugated steel culvert was compared to that of reinforced concrete slab culvert. Results show that the pressure on the top of corrugated steel culvert is smaller than that on the external in same level when test points are near to culvert, the values of test points above and below geotechnical grilles are close, and the pressure of corrugated steel culvert is smaller than that of reinforced concrete slab culvert when filling height is above 7.3 m. So analysis indicates corrugated steel culvert spreads the upper load better, the geotechnical grille can reduce the pressure effectively through earth pressure redistribution, and the mechanical property of corrugated steel culvert is better than reinforced concrete slab culvert under high fill embankment.

29 subjects attempted, over a period of 10 nights, to influence their dreams using techniques described in Garfield's book, Creative Dreaming (1974). A target suggestion was selected from a list of six suggestions compiled by, or for, each subject. Subjects kept daily records during the experiment both of their efforts at dream influence and of the dreams they recalled. Four judges attempted to identify from the dream material the target suggestion on each subject's suggestion list. The results indicated that the judges were unable to do so at better than chance levels. Thus analysis indicated no reliable evidence that conscious presleep suggestions become incorporated into dream content.
