Mathematical Curriculum

It is with considerable diffidence that I speak to you on the subject of the mathematical curriculum in the secondary schools. I am neither a teacher of secondary mathematics, nor an expert in the pedagogy of mathematics. However I have a permanent interest in the subject and its progress, and in the whole people to whom I believe the advancement of mathematics and mathematical instruction is fundamentally important. It is from this point of view that I speak. I cannot hope to give you an expert opinion on the curriculum, for I am not that kind of an expert. I can only register here my reaction on the subject in hand. It may well be doubted if my opinions are worth while. In fact I would not give them if I thought they would be accepted as given. I shall be thoroughly satisfied if I can emphasize a few well-known points of view, and perhaps stimulate a reasonable amount of criticism and thought.

The article is devoted to the definition of concept in modern linguistics. Various points of view and definitions of the basic concepts are considered: "concept", "conceptual sphere", "content". The aim of the article is to describe and explain such a complex unit as a concept from the point of view of linguistics. The object of research is studied in its various manifestations, the combination of verbal and nonverbal means of information expression in the conceptual sphere is revealed. the relevance of this topic is due to the need for a detailed consideration of the concept of concept based on the works of prominent scientists and linguists. Researchers treat the concept as a cognitive, psycholinguistic, linguocultural, cultural and linguistic phenomenon. The concept is an umbrella term because it "covers" the subject areas of several scientific fields: primarily cognitive psychology and cognitive linguistics.

Представлен анализ станковой сюжетной композиции монтажного типа с точки зрения системного подхода на примере работ известных художников прошлого и произведений современных авторов, в том числе обучающихся художественных школ и вузов. Станковая сюжетная композиция монтажного типа исследована с позиций системного подхода, выявлены закономерности построения станковой композиции как системы через инструменты системного подхода. Использование этих закономерностей в обучении станковой композиции как детей, так и взрослых способно привести к качественно новому уровню усвоения знаний и приобретению навыков. Описаны принципы работы над станковой сюжетной композицией (в том числе и монтажной) с применением системного подхода в рамках обучения изобразительному искусству. Доказано, что композиция – целая система, всегда предполагающая замкнутость и завершенность, а ее элементы всегда фиксированы. Все элементы композиции связаны единством смыслов, без которого композиция невозможна. Композиция выступает как система внутренних связей, объединяющая все компоненты формы и содержания в единое целое. Практическая значимость исследования просматривается в области преподавания композиции в художественных и общеобразовательных школах, профильных вузах и ссузах. The article presents an analysis of the easel plot composition of the assembling type from the point of view of a systematic approach on the example of the works by famous artists of the past and works by modern authors, including learners of art schools and universities. The easel plot composition of the assembling type was investigated from the points of view of the system approach, the laws of constructing the easel composition as a system through the tools of the system approach were revealed. The use of these patterns in training the easel composition of both children and adults can lead to a qualitatively new level of assimilation and acquisition of skills. The principles of work on the easel plot composition (including assembling) with the application of a systematic approach in the framework of teaching fine art are described. It has been proved that the composition is a whole system, always assuming closure and completeness, and its elements are always fixed. All elements of the composition are connected by the unity of meanings, without which the composition is impossible. The composition acts as a system of internal bonds, combining all the components of the form and content into a single whole. The practical significance of the study is visible in the field of teaching composition in art and general education schools, specialized universities and secondary schools.

Present Section

The purpose of the presented study is to analyze the social representations about the information security of children and adolescents in groups of teachers. The study is based on the ideas of the social representations theory, in particular, on the connection between social practices and social representations. The object of the study was teachers of secondary schools, the sample was 102 people aged 22 to 65 years, (M = 39.36 years, SD = 11.12 years, 91 women and 11 men). As a matter of the experience of schoolchildren all respondents were divided into three groups: teachers of children, teachers of adolescents, teachers of children and adolescents. The subject of the study was to reveal the specificity of the representations of teachers about the information security of children and adolescents. The supposed to revel the specificity of the representations as a matter of experience with schoolchildren of various ages. To test the assumptions, a questionnaire was developed, it consisted of 6 parts: In the first part, respondents were asked to evaluate this or that type of information, in terms of the threat it poses to the safety of children and adolescents. In the next four parts of the questionnaire, respondents were asked to answer questions of so-called «vignettes» (hypothetical situations), in each case it was necessary to propose a plan of action in the situation. The last part contained socio-demographic issues. As the volume of the article is limited, the present section discusses the results of the threat assessment and two hypothetical situations out of four.

Legal features of dispute resolution in the order of mediation are of particular in-terest in connection with the relatively new and unexamined, from a scientific point of view, phenomenon of modernity, arising from increasing processes of globalization and internationalization of legal systems, as well as scientific and technical progress. This article is devoted to the scientific study of the international legal regulation of such phenomena as mediation on the example of the analysis of the legislation of foreign countries, and law of the Republic of Kazakhstan. This article presents various points of view of international and Kazakh scientists on the subject of dispute resolution in the mediation procedure. It was concluded that the mediation has a number of advantages, which satisfies the need of a person, society and the state to solve conflicts quickly and efficiently with minimal losses.

It is the purpose of this study to consider the transforming influence of recent curriculum theories in the field of secondary mathematics. These theories are vitally affecting mathematical instruction from a standpoint of both quantity and quality. Throughout the discussion, an acquaintance with the older literature of educational aims and values is presupposed. For the sake of brevity, moreover, the familiar, traditional point of view in the teaching of mathematics will be referred to only in a prefatory way.

Philosophical Understanding

In this paper, the inevitability of the metaphysics of a subject for the philosophical understanding of a person’s being in the world is established, and the apophatic character of this type of metaphysics is discussed. Analysis of the categories of being and non-being which allow the interpretation of a subject as transcendent and as transcendental being that is characterized by uniformity, spontaneity and irreversibility is also mentioned. The suggested interpretation of a subject discloses both the rational sense of the classical points of view on the absolute, unconditional, timeless and spaceless character of the subject of knowledge, and the compatibility of the notions of the absolute character of a subject and the ontological condition of a human being in society and culture. The main idea of the suggested conception of a subject is the fact that the subject’s being cannot be "housed" into the world, nor can it be characterized as impossible existence for the world. The world can be understood only from the point of view of being impossible (symbolic) existence. The discussion of the problem of identification of a subject shows that the presumption of a subject as one of the existing structures of the world leads to paradoxes and contradictions in the interpretation of the processes taking place in the world. To understand the process of education, it is necessary to bear in mind that it is not only cognitive, but also moral: education is the process of the formation of a subject of knowledge through identification with transcendental symbolic existence, which fact demands making efforts to be on the part of the thinking person.

Work First

The author is interested in studying the portrait of a competent (ideal) teacher. Does the intensification of the pace of education and the growing demands on the quality of education affect the shift of emphasis in the personality of a specialist to greater pragmatism and rigidity? Or is it still, as in the days of Pestalozzi, humanity and morality determine the personality of the teacher? What personality traits of a teacher of Humanities are valuable to students? In this paper the author explores whether the points of view on personal competence of students and teachers coincide. The teacher must have knowledge of the subject, have communication skills, and be a charismatic personality in order to instill students with interest in learning the language, to encourage them to perform a large amount of work. First-year students, when adapting to studying at a university, evaluate university teachers effectiveness in teaching and communicating through the prism of school experience. Students opinions about the objectivity of teachers assessments depend on how interpersonal communication develops in the student-teacher paradigm. The adaptation of students to new forms of training largely depends on whether the teachers personality corresponds to the image of the competent (ideal teacher) that was formed at the previous stage of training (school years).

Points Of View

The data presented in the history which follows is of interest from three points of view. First, a majority of the reports in the literature on the “gifted” devoted to the development of children with superior endowment stress the fact that superiority is not unitary. Gifted children tend to exceed the norm in all areas. A study of gifted twin boys (2) illustrates this point of view. Secondly, various studies have attempted to show that students of education are not comparable in endowment to students in other fields. Wolfle (3) in exploring some thirty fields of endeavor has shown that the combined fields of physical education and general education contained the fewest number of cases on the high end of the distribution curve. The subject of this study tends to be an exception to both of the above since she has a problem, and though of very superior intelligence is the offspring of educators, also of very superior intelligence.

On the one hand, biology, chemistry and also physics tell us how the process of translating the genetic information into life could possibly work, but we are still very far from a complete understanding of this process. On the other hand, mathematics and statistics give us methods to describe such natural systems—or parts of them—within a theoretical framework. Also, they provide us with hints and predictions that can be tested at the experimental level. Furthermore, there are peculiar aspects of the management of genetic information that are intimately related to information theory and communication theory. This theme issue is aimed at fostering the discussion on the problem of genetic coding and information through the presentation of different innovative points of view. The aim of the editors is to stimulate discussions and scientific exchange that will lead to new research on why and how life can exist from the point of view of the coding and decoding of genetic information. The present introduction represents the point of view of the editors on the main aspects that could be the subject of future scientific debate.

The Ideal

In order to make this brief paper as practical as possible, I shall plunge into the subject with little introduction.I wish to consider the question from three points of view. (1)What is the ideal course?(2)What is the best practicable course?(3)What effect the best practicable course should have on the teaching of the subject in our secondary schools, and also—since the two are so closely connected—in our elementary schools.
