Masherov, Vitebsk, Belarus, [email protected] (c) Yaroslav-the-Wise Novgorod State University, Veliky Novgorod, Russia, [email protected] Abstract The article discusses the psychological and pedagogical conditions for the development of students' abilities. The authors raise issues related to the problem of student attitudes towards their abilities and the productivity of their own activities. The features of motivation for educational activities, creative position and conditions for the development of the abilities of various groups of students of secondary schools are considered. The article presents the results of a survey of students in grades 6-11 of comprehensive schools in Vitebsk (Republic of Belarus). The study obtained data reflecting the views of students in the following areas: motivation and self-realization of the personality, emotional-volitional regulation, creative position and development of abilities, special conditions and material and technical base, social connections and pedagogical support in the educational environment of the school. The study showed that confidence in the presence of pronounced abilities allows students to build their educational path effectively together with teachers and parents, based on their own interests, growth prospects and self-realization.

Publication Date 2012 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ 4.0 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California The “Forward Russia” Flag 99 The “Forward Russia” Flag: Examining the Changing Use of the Bear as a Symbol of Russia Anne M. Platoff Introduction Viewers of international sporting events have become accustomed to seeing informal sporting flags waved by citizens of various countries. The most famil- iar of these flags, of course, are the “Boxing Kangaroo” flag used to represent Australia and the “Fighting Kiwi” flag used by fans from New Zealand. Both of these flags have become common at the Olympic Games when athletes from those nations compete. Recently a new flag of this type has been displayed at international soccer matches and the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics. Unlike the Kangaroo and Kiwi flags, this new flag has been constructed using a defaced national flag, the Russian tricolor flag of white, blue, and red horizontal stripes, readopted as the flag of the Russian Federation after the breakup of the Soviet Union. A number of variations of the flag design have been used, but all of them contain two elements: the Russian text Vperëd Rossiia, which means “Forward Russia”, and a bear which appears to be break- ing its way out of the flag.

Kovtun 2 1 GIS and Land Management Faculty, Kyiv National University of Construction and Architecture, Povitroflotskij Ave, Kyiv, Ukraine – [email protected] 2 Joint stock company “Kyivmetrobud”, 4 Kablukova str., Kyiv, 03065, Ukraine, [email protected] Commission V, WG V/7 KEY WORDS: Terrestrial Laser Scanning, 3D Modeling, Kyiv Pechersk Lavra Caves, GIS, TIN ABSTRACT: The Kyiv Pechersk Lavra is a unique monastery complex included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. The first mentions of the caves in the chronicles date back to the year 1051. The idea of creating a 3D model of Lavra’s caves was suggested by the Kiev Pechersk Lavra coenobites with the aim to attract public attention to the problem of preserving the Lavra Caves for future generations. It consists of an above-ground part (a complex of religious buildings) and an underground part (caves). The caves form a system of underground corridors subdivided into several parts – the Near Caves, the Far Caves, and the Varangian Caves. Today the caves are in an emergency state and need urgent restoration. Results presented in the paper comprise all steps of the 3D model of the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra caves creation. At the first step, a spatial underground geodetic network for scans georeferencing was created. Totally over 60 stations with quite short distances from 2 m up to 15 m, with many open traverses were measured.

  • Analysis of the Website Genre DISSERTATION Presented in Part
    Representation of National Identity on Ukrainian Business Websites: Analysis of the Website Genre DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University Larysa Stepanova By Graduate Program in Slavic and East European Languages and Literatures The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Daniel E. Collins, Advisor Charles E. Gribble, Co-Adviser Predrag Matejic Copyright by Larysa Stepanova 2010 Abstract The goal of the proposed dissertation is twofold—first, to investigate the patterns of language usage in a previously unstudied discourse genre, the websites of Ukrainian businesses; and second, to determine the extent to which the new language policies of the post-Soviet Ukrainian state are reflected in this new genre, which is not explicitly covered by those policies. More specifically, the study will offer a detailed linguistic analysis of the genre in order to determine whether, and to what degree, linguistic identity, as shown by the choice of language(s) on the sites, correlates with other markers of Ukrainian national identity—i.e., the values that the official policies are trying to defend. ii Dedication This document is dedicated to my family. iii Acknowledgments Here I want to thank people who have contributed much to this research and who have been with me during this difficult period of my life. I am indebted to both of my advisers: Dr. Charles Gribble and Dr. Daniel Collins. I have learned a lot from these men who are both inspiring professors and wonderful people as they have worked with me during my entire course of study at The Ohio State University.
