Khan Academy: Fortalecimiento del aprendizaje de Cálculo I en estudiantes universitarios
Get PDFHigher Education in Cuba is a particular transformational process; indeed, the development of knowledge in the society requires new demands in the universities. One of this demand is precisely the educational inclusion of young university students, for the achievement of the necessary professional skills in their performances. Particularly, those who have a diagnosis on stuttering and the ones who are studying pedagogical careers, need special attention by a language specialist (speech therapist) so that they can achieve their independence required by the exercise of the profession from a quality education. The speech therapy cabinet office is an excellent place to favor the educational inclusion of young university students with a diagnosis of stuttering, however, there is a limited level of knowledge by teachers, students and managers about the role they play in this regard. This article is aimed at evaluating the work that is done from the speech therapy cabinet of the Central University “Marta Abreu” de Las Villas (Villa Clara province, Cuba), to favor the educational inclusion of a young woman with Stuttering diagnosis. In order to achieve this purpose, an exploratory research was implementedthrough a case study, which constituted the initial phase of a further study. As a result, the diagnosisof the real state of the work that is carried out from the speech therapy cabinet was obtained, in relation to the educational inclusion of a young woman with a diagnosis of stuttering.El estudio puesto a consideración, muestra la importancia del uso del Khan Academy (KA) en el aprendizaje de Cálculo I en estudiantes universitarios de las Escuelas Profesionales de Ingeniería.

Comparison of arrogance in Shahnameh and Bahmannameh based on the ancient story of Bahmannameh
Get PDFOne of the most important aspects of the struggle of warriors and warriors in epic works is the arrogance that is called by the comrades before the start of the hand-to-hand battle. It is accompanied by pride in ancestry, race, and ridicule. Ferdowsi's Shahnameh is full of unique arrogance that has given its poet a special place with special and various skills, so that these styles have been welcomed and imitated by poets after Ferdowsi. In the meantime, Bahmannameh written by Iranshah Ibn Abi Al-Khair has a special place. In this work, the heroes have boasted in different ways before the battle. This study has selected the examples of boasting of the warriors in the two mentioned works and comparing them to examine their advantages and disadvantages in relation to each other

Sequel as A Type of Metatext Practice: Philosophical Perspective
Get PDFThe article considers the phenomenon of the sequel as a type of metatext practice and as an integral component in the chain of knowledge transfer. The reproducibility of the original text is thus correlated with "unlimited" semiosis / interpretation. The phenomenon of metatext is closely related to the functioning of secondary texts, since any metatext belongs to the category of secondary texts. By secondary, we mean text created as a result of processing the original, primary text.The sequel acts as a secondary text, and the text that interprets the main text. The relevance of the research, therefore, is related to such philosophical and linguistic problems as reference and interpretation. The popularity of sequels written by modern authors to Jane Austen's novels can be seen as a particular manifestation of the general "fashion" for secondariness. Consciously or not, modern "successors" of her novels tend to repeat her style, even if they simply borrow the characters and plot of the novels. Within the framework of semiotics, the sequel can be considered as a "sign" that displays its referent - the novels of Austen. However (from the point of view of stylistics), the sequel cannot be an exact copy of its original, since it is invariably created in other socio-cultural conditions. A sequel as a sign can display its referent (novel) in three main types: index, icon, symbol, and their combinations. Thus, the article analyzes each of the ways of display and concludes that it is impossible to symbolically reflect the proto-text on the example of the novel "Pride and prejudice" and its sequels written by contemporary authors. One of the results of the work is the assumption that the ontological status of the new "possible world" in the sequel and therefore its communicative success, are in direct correlation with the way of referential representation of the original
The right to education and study and women's labor rights in Iranian jurisprudence and law and the UNESCO 2030 document
Get PDFIn this article, the researcher seeks to examine the right to education and study and women's labor rights in Iranian jurisprudence and law and the 2030 UNESCO document. The present study is a descriptive-analytical study using the library method to investigate the question. The results of the study indicate that both in Islam and Iranian law, as well as in international documents, the equality of women's rights with men is emphasized but the concept of equality in Islam is explained in the sense of proportion and not equality in international instruments, however, equality between men and women means that their rights are equal. Regarding the right to education, there is no contradiction between Iranian jurisprudence and law and the 2030 document because in both Iranian jurisprudence and law, as well as in the documents emphasized in the 2030 document, which leads to the empowerment of women, the right to equal education has been emphasized. Regarding labor rights, it should be said that in the conventions of the International Labor Organization, which are among the documents considered in the 2030 document in the field of women's empowerment, concessions in the field of women's labor rights have been included for them. Prohibition of hazardous work, breastfeeding hours, maternity leave are among these rights. In Iranian labor law, these advantages are also considered for women, and therefore it seems that Iranian labor law is in accordance with international instruments. The issue of equality can be analyzed in such a way that, although there are biological and natural differences between men and women, this situation should not lead to legal differences. Basically, biological differences are concerned with the realities of human existence, and the legal debate is concerned with human needs and although individuals are different in existential realities, they can also be similar in legal requirements
Development of the activity of gifted schoolchildren in mastering geometric con-cepts in figurative structures
Get PDFBackground: The relevance of developing mental activity for mastering geometric concepts relates to the change in paradigmatic foundations taking place in modern education. Such a change is associated with the recognition of a schoolchild as a subject of educational and cognitive activity, the initiator of own activity. Objective: The authors attempted to describe a model of a didactic system for developing active usage of geometric concepts in the process of teaching geometry to mathematically gifted schoolchildren in 10-11 grades. The authors also used the GeoGebra dynamic system as a component of the electronic educational environment (EEE). The objective is achieved by characterizing the architecture of the system model, which evokes active usage of geometric concepts within schoolchildren in learning situations; substantiating psychodidactic conditions for the effective development of this activity using the GeoGebra dynamic system; and defining levels, criteria, and indicators of development. Methods: A specially organized educational activity in EEE and a developed system of tasks within the framework of the elective course “Problems of solid geometry and computer graphics” for 10-11 graders represent a didactic means of developing the activities related to figurative-spatial methods of information coding. Findings: The authors described a didactic system model for mastering geometric concepts in figurative structures in the process of teaching geometry to 10-11 graders using the GeoGebra dynamic system. Conclusions: Fostering schoolchildren’ mastering geometric concepts in figurative structures occurs under the direct influence of teaching. However, this process is complex and internally contradictory. The structure of this kind of activity contains actions of different nature
