No full textThe publication examines the previously unknown text of St. Tikhon (Bellavin), future Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia) entitled «Jansenism». This article was based on the thesis of St. Tikhon «Quesnel and his relation towards Jansenism» (1888) and in March 1891 was submitted for publication in the magazine «Readings in the Society of the ecclesiastical enlightenment lovers». The text wasn’t published in the magazine, but the manuscript was preserved in the archive of the «Society» (Russian State Library, Department of the manuscripts. F. 206). Since the thesis of St. Tikhon wasn’t preserved, this article is the only source for the understanding how he considered the one of the most important phenomena in the history of Western religious thought — Jansenism. Despite the fact that the content of the article is not relevant to the achievements of the modern scholarship, contemporary interest to the Western religious thought of XVII century and to the Russian academic theology increases the value of the article. But the undoubted importance of this text comes from its authorship, or rather from the personality of the author — St Tikhon
Impact of blended learning on studying English as a Foreign Language
No full textThe paper focuses on the research of the efficiency of three primary forms of teaching and besides, blended learning influence on learning and teaching English as a foreign language at Yuriy Fedkovych Chernivtsi National University, Ukraine, at Faculties of Economics (particularly, Economic Cybernetics), Law, Pedagogy and Psychology, Philology, for two academic years 2020/2021, 2021/2022. The study sample consisted of 120 students from 4 mentioned faculties who took the compulsory academic discipline English for Specific Purposes in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd semesters in compliance with their curriculum. The objectives of the study are to analyze and compare the effectiveness of the practical application of the three primary forms of education (full-time, distant and blended) and to study the impact of blended learning on teaching and learning English as a foreign language in practical classes of the compulsory English course. For the research, a questionnaire survey divided into two parts was used. Each of the survey parts included four items. The second part of the survey was conducted based on the typical 5-level Likert scale. To analyze the elicited data, SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) program was used for the qualitative research. The outcomes in both parts are presented in percentages. The study conclusions showed that a blended study is the challenge of the present-day education system and is highly approved by university students. They are sure that using blended learning in teaching EFL at Chernivtsi National University is beneficial, advantageous and productive for improving skills in English as a foreign language course. Four-fifths of the respondents stated that their language proficiency skills significantly enhanced compared to conventional teaching methods.

Organizational identity design: A multimodal discourse analysis of Australian university homepages
No full textThis thesis studies web homepages to understand the complex social practice of organizational identity communication on a digital medium. It examines how designs of web homepages realize discourses of identity through the mobilization and orchestration of various semiotic resources into multimodal ensembles, addressing critical organizational visual identity elements (‘logo,’ ‘corporate name,’ ‘color,’ ‘typography,’ ‘graphic shapes,’ and ‘images’), communicative content of the page, and navigation structures. By examining these three ‘strata’ of organizational identity communication, it investigates how a homepage uses formal design elements and more abstract principles of composition, such as spatial positioning and content ordering, as resources for making meaning.
The data consists of three complementary sets drawn from thirty-nine web homepages of Australian university websites in 2020. Data set #1 includes four homepages for an in-depth study of organizational identity designs; data set #2 consists of 400 images from the ‘above the fold’ web area as the most strategic space on four homepages between the years 2015 and 2021; data set #3 is comprised of eight historical versions of a selected web homepage between the years 2000 and 2021, with three most representative designs for an in-depth investigation. Grounded in the discourse-analytic approach informed by multimodal social semiotics, the thesis adopts a mixed-method approach to data analysis. It applies multimodal discourse analysis combining the Genre and Multimodality model (Bateman, 2008; Bateman et al., 2017) to document the structural design patterns and social semiotic (metafunctional) approach to address the meaning potentials of the identified patterns; (Kress & van Leeuwen, 2021); content analysis (Bell, 2001; Rose, 2016) and visual social actor framework (van Leeuwen, 2008) to identify key representational tropes and visual personae.
The study reveals the role of design as a mediating tool between the participants of discourse – the rhetor-institution/designer and envisaged audiences – and offers systematic insights into the uses of semiotic resources, both material (e.g., formal design elements and navigation structures) and nonmaterial (e.g., spatial considerations and content structuring), all contributing to the production of meanings and fostering identification with such meanings in the form of association with the university’s identity. Addressing the subtle differences and shifts in the form and function of key layout structures and strategies of viewer engagement, the study concludes that is plural – each university constantly revises semiotic choices and their multimodal composition to achieve specific rhetorical purposes. Together with several visual design choices, five identified strategies of viewer engagement – proximation, alignment, equalization, objectivation, and subjectivation – promote the university as a place of opportunity, achievement, sociality, and intellectual growth for a student as an individual and as a member of the community.
The current research contributes to the emerging collaboration between multimodality, organization studies, and branding, recognizing the complexities and importance of multimodal communication in web-mediated texts amidst the critically increased roles of marketization and social presence in the current higher education landscape
Data imperative, creative practice, and public opinion about visual generative AI in 2024
No full textUsing evidence from YouTube discussions, this article analyzes how different communities perceive the potentials and limitations of visual generative artificial intelligence (genAI). Firstly, when viewed as a tool, genAI is framed as natural progression of technology that enhances creativity, increases productivity, and democratizes art, echoing the prevailing narratives promoted by technology companies. Secondly, when considered a threat, genAI is discussed in relation to critical concerns such as derivative copies of the new industrial art, the lack of fair compensation for artists, and the potential for job displacement. Thirdly, anthropomorphization – treating genAI as equivalent to human intelligence – is a common theme in conversations about model training. Despite these divergent viewpoints, a collective effort to negotiate ethical AI adoption emphasizes the need for accountability from AI companies, updates to existing regulatory frameworks, and alternative solutions to reclaim the human element in genAI cultures. The findings suggest that while visual genAI can indeed enhance creative practices, data value extraction must be repudiated to prevent market power concentration by those who frame this technology as a tool for the imagination while excluding the creators whose work these "tools" are built on

Abstract
The work is a fragment of scientific research “Peculiarities of structural reorganization of the nervous, digestive, endocrine systems, hematopoietic and immune organs under conditions of thermal injury and the use of corrective factors” (0120U104152).
The study of the state of internal organs and systems of the body under the influence of external factors that are stressful is relevant. The negative impact of environmental factors on the central nervous system, including cerebellum, leads to their structural and functional restructuring. The cerebellum is a multifunctional component of the brain and the object of numerous lesions.
The purpose of this work is analysis of scientific literature which is dedicated study of the influence of exogenous and endogenous factors on the morphological structure of the cerebellum.
The article analyzes the scientific literature of the effects of hypodynamia, hypothermia, hypokinesia, alcohol intoxication, toxic effects of Lead, drugs, pharmacological agents, low-frequency pulsed electromagnetic field on the micro- and submicroscopic organization of the cerebellum. In lots of experimental studies, which were analyzed it is established that in the dynamics of the influence of different factors there is a reorganization of the cerebellar cortex layers and disruption of the microcirculatory bed structures. Purkinje cells change shape to spherical, their processes are thinned, sharply hyperchromic neurocytes prevail over normochromic ones. The functional activity of neurons is reduced, because the chromatophilic substance is almost absent. The thickness of the molecular and granular layers decreases. The ganglionic layer loses its single-row arrangement of neurons. There are erythrocytes in the coin columns in the lumens of hemocapillaries. The dilatation and prevascular edema are observed. Thus, under the conditions of negative influence of various factors in neurocytes of a cerebellar cortex and links of a microcirculatory channel there are destructive and degenerative changes on micro- and submicroscopic levels. In the long run there are adaptive-compensatory processes and necrotic, which had a phase dependence. So, destructive and degenerative changes on micro- and submicroscopic levels. In the long run there are adaptive-compensatory processes and necrotic, which had a phase dependence.
Key words: cerebellum; neurons; micro- and submicroscopic changes; exogenous and endogenous effects

Abstract
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a rare neuromuscular disease with an autoimmune background. It is characterized by the presence of antibodies directed against the acetylcholine receptor. Diagnosing MG poses a lot of difficulties because it is characterized by high variability of symptoms. The most important symptoms of this disease are weakness and excessive muscular fatigue. Diagnosis of the MG requires carrying out a diagnostic tests with a broad spectrum. One of the elements of the comprehensive treatment of patients with MG is the implementation of appropriate physiotherapeutic procedures. Together with other forms of therapy, it alleviates the symptoms of the disease and improves the quality of life of people with myasthenia.
The aim of this work is to present diagnostic methods and physiotherapeutic possibilities in one of the neuromuscular diseases - myasthenia gravis. The bibliographic databases were searched: PubMed, Polish Medical Bibliography and Medline. Articles in Polish and English were used.
Key words: myasthenia gravis, neuromuscular disease, physiotherap

Abstract
The article highlights the problems of organization and conduct of health fitness classes for women of mature age on the basis of theoretical analysis and practical experience. The high level of social significance of systematic health fitness training for women aged 21 to 35 is defined, the favorable influence of physical culture and health classes on the body of women of reproductive age is outlined. The purpose of the study was to determine the indicators impact on which will enable optimization of health water fitness classes for women aged 21 to 35 based on factor analysis of physical development and physical preparation in women of the first mature age. Among the research methods used analysis of scientific and methodological literature, systematization, anthropometric research methods, methods of mathematical statistics were applied. During the study 46 women of the first mature age who do water fitness were involved. The participants of the study confirmed their consent to participate in the pedagogical experiment in writing. The factor structure of physical development, physical preparation and motor activity in women of the first mature age was defined, which allowed to create a representation regarding the list of informative indicators that have the most significant influence on other indicators. Among the informative indicators in the factor structure of physical development, physical preparation and motor activity of women, the leading factor is determined by the physical preparation of women, namely the functional state of the musculoskeletal system. Among the significant indicators, the leading positions are also occupied by the component composition of the body (fat component) and the type of women physique, considering the existing disorders of neutral spine as a direction of influence during classes. The correlation of means of physical training that will optimize water fitness classes for women of the first mature age is determined.
