Agrita Tauriņa The goal of the paper: Theoretically and practically investigate the opportunities of literacy promotion in outdoor environment; to use literacy-promoting activities in an outdoor environment; to collect and analyse the data obtained in the empirical study. The structure of the paper: The qualification paper consists of a theoretical and an empirical part. The theoretical part presents the pedagogical and psychological characteristics of 5 - 6 year-old children, the characteristics of the notion of literacy, the conditions of the formation of literacy, the process of literacy acquisition and the importance of learning in an outdoor environment. In the empirical study, research was carried out using observation and questionnaire methods, pedagogical trial activities were carried out to promote literacy in outdoor environment. The volume of the paper: 60 pages. The paper includes 5 tables, 19 images (including diagrams) and 1 appendix. The work uses 32 units of literature and other sources. Keywords: Literacy, preschool, outdoor environment, 5 - 6 year old children

The use of real-time ground-to-air video during aeromedical response to traffic crashes.
No full textDeteriorating traffic conditions and resulting safety problems on I-81 have long been a topic of concern. This, coupled with increasing traffic congestion along this largely four-lane highway, has resulted in increased crash rates. Emergency medical service (EMS) responders summoned to motor vehicle crashes along I-81 are trained volunteers with experience in dealing with motor vehicle crashes but do not have critical care treatment abilities. In serious crashes additional expertise is needed at the crash site to prevent disability or death. In these cases, a medical transport helicopter is summoned to the site to bring critical level care to victims and transport them rapidly to the nearest trauma center. A significant number of motor vehicle crash victims along the I-81 corridor are eventually transferred to the University of Virginia Hospital, the closest level 1 trauma center, by the Pegasus medical evacuation helicopter staffed by specially trained critical care providers. Since critical care trained providers, doctors, and nurses cannot be present at each crash site, the next best situation would be if such personnel could see the crash site remotely through ground-to-air video and be able to give treatment advice to EMS responders. To this end, companies with "off-the shelf" technology that could potentially work for this project were identified and contacted, and they subsequently provided information and/or demonstrations of their products. The project director made a determination as to whether the equipment could perform in a technically acceptable fashion and whether the company was willing to make any modifications to ensure proper configuration of the equipment. A public demonstration of the identified and customized equipment was held at the Charlottesville-Albemarle Airport in July 2001 and was attended by representative stakeholders, end-users, and members of the media. The demonstrated equipment performed in accordance with all expectations. Thus acceptable technology exists for the deployment phase of this study to proceed
