Abstract:
The problem of transforming everyday concepts of a child into scientific concepts and their interaction posed by L.S. Vygotskii is still relevant. This article analyzes the transformation of the everyday concept of breathing and respiration to the scientific concept, starting with the ideas of a preschooler and up to the end of school age. The material of the experimental teaching within the framework of a five-year biology course for middle school is presented in comparison with the traditional introduction of the scientific concept. Teaching-learning processes are investigated as a series of

Abstract:
This study focused on addressing underperformance in chemistry in Anglophone West African countries. The main purpose of the study was to determine if factors such as gender, school location and ownership impact students’ perception of the difficulty of chemistry concepts and to suggest how these difficult concepts can be made easy to learn from the perspectives of the students. A mixed-methods approach was adopted. Participants were 1,292 chemistry students from nine public and 12 private secondary schools in Nigeria and Ghana with about three-quarters of the schools from urban areas. About 5

Analogy-based instruction can greatly reduce a student’s burden of learning these abstract CS concepts. Role of analogy in teaching CS topics has not been adequately explored.

Abstract Product development involves many trade-offs between upstream objectives (e.g., customer needs) and downstream constraints (e.g., modularity, manufacturability, etc.) Conceptual design, when design concepts are generated and improved, is the most important product development stage when these tradeoffs are made. However, when designers try to improve a known design concept of a current product during product development, it is often difficult for them to be both creative (i.e., meeting new objectives) and practical (i.e., incorporating existing constraints) at the same time.

Even solving irrational equations containing radicals of the second order now encounter certain difficulties. Obviously, the situation becomes even more difficult when the irrational equation contains radicals of different order. Thus, in this article, a pu

Abstract:
Description logic knowledge bases can be used to represent knowledge about a particular domain in a formal and unambiguous manner. Their practical relevance has been shown in many research areas, especially in biology and the semantic web. However, the tasks of constructing knowledge bases itself, often performed by human experts, is difficult, time-consuming and expensive. In particular the synthesis of terminological knowledge is a challenge every expert has to face. Because human experts cannot be omitted completely from the construction of knowledge bases, it would therefore be desirable t

Abstract:
A feasibility study to examine the use of coupons for measuring the polarized potential of a pipe. This study was a 15-month effort (1992-1993) with the objective being to provide proof of concept for the ability of coupons installed near the pipe surface to estimate the polarized potential of the pipe without interruption of the cathodic protection system. The incentive for performing this project was to provide an additional means of evaluating the polarized potential of a pipeline in areas where interruption of all current to the pipeline is difficult or impossible to perform.

Full text
Abstract:
The concept of centrality has been widely used to monitor systems with a network structure because it allows identifying their most influential participants. But this monitoring task can be difficult if the number of system participants is considerably large or if the wide variety of centrality measures currently available produce non-coincident (or mixed) signals. This document uses principal component analysis to evaluate a set of centrality measures calculated for the financial institutions that participate in four financial market infrastructures of Colombia. The results obtained are used

Abstract:
Chiasma is the point of crossing over or site where the exchange of genetic material takes place between two homologous, non-sister chromatids. The crossover occurs in the pachytene stage, however, it is observed in the diplotene stage of meiosis-I[2]. The cross-over between the two homologs also creates a new combination of parental genes, forming recombinants. The recombination of the genes causes variation in the population and exert a profound effect on genomic diversity and evolution. Meiotic recombination and variation in the population have been a concern for scientists to understand th

Abstract:
The work presented in this report represents an overview of risk methodologies, an investigation of state-of-the-art publications concerning the nexus between fire safety and sustainability, and the latest proof-of-concept and development of a model to foster sustainable and fire resilient choices in the design process of a building. The literature review has shown that while little is presently published concerning the nexus of sustainability and fire safety, some interesting investigations of sustainable and fire safe solutions have been found. Further, while the development of a complex hie

Abstract:
It is time to transition to a more sustainable energy future, opening up new opportunities to own energy locally, together. Uppsala University and Nordregio have jointly produced this guide, which is aimed at those interested in creating projects for locally owned energy, as well as decision-makers or financiers who want to understand how you can support citizens in realising these projects. There is great potential in co-creating and owning energy at the local level: lower costs for residents, resilient communities and robust energy systems. Interest in community-owned energy projects is grow

Abstract:
Degradation processes are implicated in a large number of system failures, and are crucial to understanding issues related to reliability and safety. Systems typically degrade in response to stressors, such as physical or chemical environmental conditions, which can vary widely for identical units that are deployed in different places or for different uses. This situational variance makes it difficult to develop accurate physics-based or data-driven models to assess and predict the system health status of individual components. To address this issue, we propose a fuzzy set model for representi
