Science and art are generally compared with each other in terms of their similarities and differences. Syntheses of science and art can be expressed with regards to terms art's contributions through imagination and scientific data's reflections on artistic applications. Research processes that begin with the sense of wonder also show similarity within the comparison between science and art. Also, evaluations are made in different perspectives with views concerning the differences between science and art. Nowadays, the applications that include interdisciplinary work with the convergence of fields of science and art have gained acceptance by a wide variety of research methods. Technology also plays a role in these applications through digitalization in obtaining scientific data and methods of visualization. Contribution to art and education fields is envisaged through application examples produced within the context of science-art synthesis and application-research methods guiding interdisciplinary education. The goal of this study is to reveal how the research methods of visual art works that contain scientific data created by scientist-artists become. The study has been carried out with the literature review. In the research, artistic applications that include scientific information were discussed under themes according to their different prominent characteristics. In the research, various viewpoints concerning application methods that artists who make use of scientific information and materials, that artists who are educated in science and art serve in these two areas, that are cooperative ones conducted through community participation and dual group or multiple groups having proficiency in various areas, and that are the multi-dimensional digital ones through the synthesis of science, art, and technology were revealed. In these practices, artists/scientists have demonstrated the holistic perspective of both fields by experiencing both the process of inquiry for scientific knowledge and aesthetic inquiry in their research paths. Keywords: Science, art, visual arts, artistic application methods

Resumo: Este trabalho analisa os resultados obtidos durante a realização de uma sequência didática interdisciplinar, que contemplou saberes das ciências e da arte, na formação docente de pedagogos. As atividades, realizadas no segundo semestre de 2015, contaram com a participação de 19 estudantes do curso de Pedagogia do Centro Universitário Franciscano e das professoras de Ensino de Ciências e Ensino de Arte, totalizando 36 horas aulas. Inicialmente foi apresentado um vídeo, seguido de uma apresentação explorando os dados científicos apresentados. Com base nessas informações, cada aluno escolheu uma espécie vegetal e investigou aspectos inerentes às ciências e a arte dessa planta. A sequência culminou com a apresentação de camisetas, estampadas com os carimbos produzidos a partir das informações científicas pesquisadas pelos estudantes acerca das plantas escolhidas. Os resultados apontam que os estudantes, ao escolherem apenas partes dos vegetais com utilidade estética ou alimentar, apresentam uma visão utilitarista da ciência. Em relação aos conhecimentos da Arte, destaca-se que, ao utilizarem diferentes linguagens da arte, como os desenhos, as formas e as cores, os alunos exercitaram a observação e descrição criteriosa de um objeto, neste caso as plantas. Deste modo, a sequência didática desenvolvida permitiu interlocuções entre Arte e Educação, pois sendo uma ação interdisciplinar entre Ciência e Arte, articulou pesquisas sobre as plantas e a linguagem da xilogravura, contribuindo para o desenvolvimento do olhar crítico dos estudantes de Pedagogia acerca da natureza e da arte. Palavras-chave: Ensino de Ciências. Ensino de Arte. Proposta didática. Interdisciplinaridade.SCIENCE EDUCATION AND ART IN TEACHER TRAINING: AN ANALYSIS OF AN INTERDISCIPLINARY PROPOSALAbstract: This paper analyzes the results obtained during an interdisciplinary didactic sequence, which included science and art knowledge, during the teaching training of pedagogues. The activities were carried on in the second half of 2015 with the participation of 19 undergraduate students of University Center of Pedagogy Franciscan and Science Teaching teachers and Art Education, totaling 36 hour classes. Initially a video was presented, followed by an explanation, exploring the scientific data studied. Based on this information, each student chose a plant species and investigated its aspects from a scientific and artistic point of view. The sequence culminated in the presentation of shirts, which emblazoned the stamps produced from the scientific information researched by students about the chosen plants. The results show that students, while selecting only parts of the plants with cosmetic or food use, demonstrate a utilitarian view of science. Regarding the knowledge of art, it is emphasized that when using different art languages, such as designs, shapes and colors, the students exercised observation and careful description of an object, in this case the plants. Thus, the developed teaching sequence allowed dialogues between Art and Education, as being an interdisciplinary action between science and art. Also, it articulated research on plants and the languages of woodcuts, contributing to the development of the critical eye of Pedagogy students about the nature and art. Keywords: Science Education. Art Education. Proposal didactic. Interdisciplinary.

Changing the system of family values, views of the society on the significance and functioning of the family institution contribute to the transformation of marital role relationships in modern families. The already formed model of role interaction, the ability of spouses to define and clearly distribute family roles and to treat them responsibly is the important factors in building constructive marital relations and creating a favorable psychological climate in the family. Objective. The research deals with the analysis of the essence of the “family role” concept and the classification of family roles; experimental definition and analysis of the main types of family roles in marital relations. Methods. Theoretical research methods were used to solve the research problem: analysis of scientific psychological literature, generalization method, systematization of scientific information. To solve the second part of the set objective, the empirical research methods were used, such as: conversation, psychodiagnostic method “Distribution of roles in the family” by Yu.Ye. Alioshyna, L.Ya. Hofman, O.M. Dubrovska, and also the method of processing and quantitative and qualitative interpretation of results. The research was conducted during September-October 2020. The study involved 11 married couples (husband and wife) with different marital experience of 22 people aged 25 to 47 years (Kyiv). All the couples have children aged 1 to 20 years. The results of an empirical study of the peculiarities of family roles distribution showed that the roles of entertainment organizer (63.64 %), master (mistress), (72.73 % and 63.64 %), the family subculture organizer (54, 55 % and 45.45 %) women and men share almost equally; the roles of educator and “psychotherapist” is more typical for women (90.91 % and 81.82 %); The role of sexual partner and the partner responsible for material support is more often performed by men (90.91 % and 72.73 %). The prospects for further research are seen in the study of role interaction in the parental families of adolescents and young people as a prerequisite for their future family roles.

Examined here are claims made in a recent edited volume to provide Marxism with a template for research methods. Downplayed or missing, however, are crucial issues necessary to the realization of this project, including who or what is to be considered Marxist, earlier methodological contributions and prefiguring debate, together with the political ends to which such research is geared. These problems in turn can be traced to misunderstandings of or difficulties with Marxist theory and its key concepts, among them class, the industrial reserve, and unfree labour. In light of the shortcomings, the conclusion is that a Marxist guide to fieldwork methods has yet to be written.

The dimension of choice and adherence to healthy lifestyles is in the area of social constructions made in representations of individuals and had not yet been included in the Surveillance of Risk and Protective Factors for Chronic Diseases by Telephone Survey (VIGITEL) analysis systems. This article aims to understand, in individual narratives, representations contained in the trajectories of people's lives selected from the 2010 VIGITEL sample, in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. It is a qualitative study based on Social Representation Theory. Thirty in-depth and open interviews with subjects selected from the 2010 VIGITEL sample were conducted in Belo Horizonte in the State of Minas Gerais. The Structural Analysis of Narrative technique was used to reveal the content of speeches. Age and heredity representations related to NCDs are part of the spectrum of current scientific information. Learning from childhood onwards is the basis of care. The lack of comprehension of the pathophysiology of NCDs, and the depth of representations of illness and death related to communicable diseases, is partly responsible for the difficulty of preventing NCDs.

Introduction. The article presents the results of research of the geographical vocabulary of the Shilan dialect, one of the Erzya-Mordovian dialects of the Samara region, common among Erzya population of Shilan village in Krasnoyarsk region. The dialect belongs to rare Mordovian dialects of the Samara Volga region that were formed in the region since the middle of the XIX century, and therefore its research is of extra interest. Materials and Methods. The research methods are determined by the purpose and objectives of the study. The analysis of the geographical vocabulary of the Shilan dialect is carried out with the involvement of relevant items made in other Mordovian dialects of Samara region, adjacent territories of neighboring regions, as well as other territories of settlement of the Mordovians. Data on geographical vocabulary of the dialect introduced into research for the first time. The main source materials for the article is based on field studies in Silane village during the field seasons in 2017 and 2020, as well as in other Erzya-Mordovian and Moksha-Mordovian villages of Samara region and adjacent territories in 2015 – 2020. Results and Discussion. The study showed that the geographical vocabulary of the Shilan dialect of the Erzya-Mordovian language is significantly different from the corresponding lexical clusters in other dialects of the Mordovian region, which can be explained by natural geographical conditions surrounding Shilan village and the original composition of this lexical cluster of Erzya immigrants who founded this village. Conclusion. The analysis of the geographical vocabulary of the Shilan dialect allowed, on the one hand, to identify specific features of this cluster that distinguish it from the corresponding materials of other Mordovian dialects of the region, and, on the other hand, to identify common isoglosses between it and a number of the Erzya-Mordovian dialects of the Samara Volga region.

he article presents an interdisciplinary view of research methods in the theory of education. The development of issues in the theory of education presupposes a clear organization of research activities, in which a key role is played by rethinking and adequate using of research methods from related sciences (psychology, sociology, physiology, cultural studies, and others). Modern theory and practice of education are changing as a result of the integration of knowledge of related humanities. More and more complex and complex problems arise. All in all it necessitates rethinking the methodology of the theory of education. Currently, it is necessary to conduct research activities at the intersection of sciences, which improves the quality of research and allows more holistic use of the results obtained in practice. The article reveals significant principles that determine the methodology of the modern theory of upbringing - the principle of humanitarianism and social expediency of the upbringing process, the principle of the unity of the theory and practice of upbringing, the principle of development, the principle of consistency and determination. Authors highlight the significant interdisciplinary scientific approaches that are relevant to substantiate research methods in the modern theory of education. The basis for the selection of methods was grounded by such disciplines that allow us to consider various aspects of the educational activities of a teacher, enrich the researcher with scientific information about a person and the mechanisms of his personal dynamics (existential philosophy), about the creation of a flexible, open dialogue space in which zones of self-organization of children are provided (synergetics), on the art of deciphering verbal and non-verbal signs of a child (semiotics), on the awareness of the child's path as reaching the heights through difficulties and overcoming (acmeology), on understanding the child through comprehending the meanings of children's behavior (hermeneutics), on the interpretation of the personality as an integral open multilevel developing system capable of withstanding external influences (humanistic psychology). In conclusion, the authors note the importance of a new pedagogical direction - semantic pedagogy, which can be considered as the basis for the integration of humanitarian knowledge, which is essential for modern theory.

The article presents a study of gift-giving practices in the context of the development of modern biomedicine and shows their relationship to the realization of epistemic virtues. In biomedicine, the gain and production of knowledge (the gift of knowledge) is often grounded in bodily gift (sacrifice) and donor practices. The latter are associated with a number of mishaps in the history of biomedicine, reflecting the violation of moral norms in the process of obtaining scientific data and demonstrating the need for a clear differentiation of intellectual and moral virtues. An important factor in the formation of the epistemic norms of modern biomedicine has been the transformation of the values of scientific knowledge from practices of coercion to giving. As a result, the involuntary sacrifice of biomaterials to science was replaced by voluntary practices of somatic giving and informational exchange that determine the process of mutual recognition in science. It is shown that gift-giving in science is closely associated with intellectual virtues, with intellectual generosity characterizing the idea of openness in science and scientists’ intention for production and constant growth of knowledge, and can also be related to the idea of altruistic service to science, involving the exchange of received scientific data and access to free information in the network space. A number of examples of the modern digital gift ethos and the implementation of the principles of openness of knowledge and knowledge exchange in the context of the creation of biomedical expert digital platforms, the formation of social scientific networks – platforms with open access to scientific information, the development of the phenomenon of “garage” science and other “zones of exchange” experience are considered.

In the previous articles, we reported on the results of a multifaceted research study on how to benchmark and use emerging educational technologies. Our approach blended classic research methods with those used in market research studies. We gathered data and expertise from a variety of sources, including academic research articles, industry reports, interviews with leaders and national pacesetters, and the experiences of our own veteran staff. Our objective was to create a means by which decisions about affordances, constraints, and effective use could be made in a just-in-time fashion. We have only scratched the surface.
