Ukrainian Hearing Parents and Their Deaf Children U k r a i n This study, which utilized a mixed methods approach, is the first research i a study in Ukraine which explored the experiences of parents raising deaf or n hard of hearing children. The outcome of the study includes a P documented analysis and synthesis of the perceptions held by Ukrainian a r hearing parents raising young deaf or hard of hearing children regarding e n the emotional and communicational impact of the diagnosis on their family t s functioning, their perceptions of existing services and/or programs, and & their perceptions of the relationships with professionals. Three hundred t and twenty-five families whose young children were enrolled in grade 0 or h e 1 in 48 residential schools for children with hearing loss across the country i r were sampled in a survey of the study and 17 families from among this D number volunteered for follow-up interviews. The emotional impact of the e diagnosis on the parents and other family members as well as such factors a f as communication mode, availability and accessibility of professional C services, access to information on deafness, and educational choices were h i l explored along with demographic and other characteristics. d r e n Ihor Kobel Ihor Kobel Ukrainian Hearing Parents Dr.Ihor Kobel is an Associate Professor with the and their Deaf Children Department of Social Pedagogy at the Ukrainian Catholic University.

  • Activity Plan for Pilot Project on Multilingual Education
    1 Activity plan for Pilot project on multilingual education development in Ukrainian schools "Plurilingualism of preschool- and schoolchildren forming: Progressive ideas from European experience in Ukrainian context" on the basis of preschool establishments and secondary schools of Zakarpattya, Odessa and Chernivtsi regions Abstract. This paper summarizes the experience of the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine and its partners (guidance by PATRIR ― Peace Action Training and Research Institute of Romania and the financial support of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland) had with initiating the National Pilot Project on Multilingual Education (MLE), taking place 2016-2021. It includes specific recommendations as to what could be included in the 5 year strategic plan for the Pilot project. I. BACKGROUND AND CONTEXTUALISATION OF MLE PROCESS IN UKRAINE Globalization and integration processes in Europe and worldwide actualized the problem of information exchange and mutual understanding between representatives of different peoples and cultures. At the same time they led to the need to protect linguistic and cultural heritage of different nations. These developments have introduced plurilingual communicative competence of pupils to the category of educational priorities in many world countries. Multilingual education as an educational sector that is actively developing is an effective tool to prepare the young generation for life in the new environment of international cooperation and collaboration. The multilingualism preservation and development experience of school age children is one of the main peculiarities in many countries of the European Union. The reforms, that have taken place in the education of these countries in the second 2 half of the XX – at the beginning of XXI century, significantly diversified students’ linguistic repertoire and positively influenced to their intercultural competence level.

  • Deaf Culture in Hollywood: American Sign Language on Screen
    Deaf Culture in Hollywood: American Sign Language on Screen Abbey Marra University of Rochester Department of Visual and Cultural Studies _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Prior to 1965, the elusive term, “Deaf culture” was primarily recognized within Deaf communities. The majority of the hearing world viewed deafness simply as the condition of hearing loss and wondered how a group who did not claim any particular geographical space, religion, literature, or cuisine could be called “cultural.” Carol Padden and Tom Humphries sought to define “Deaf culture” in their book, Deaf in America: Voices from a Culture (1988). They used the lowercase deaf when referring to the audiological condition of hearing loss and the capital Deaf when referring to a particular group of Deaf people who have a shared history, set of beliefs, practices, and most importantly, a common language— American Sign Language (ASL). Deaf characters have been portrayed on screen since the silent film era, but representations of them in Hollywood are routinely misguided and/or pushed to the margins. Directors regularly cast hearing actors in Deaf roles, with the assumption that a performer must only learn basic signs to properly convey the Deaf experience. This recurring practice can be seen as recently as 2017, with the casting of Julianne Moore in a prominent Deaf role in Todd Haynes’s Wonderstruck. Randa Haines’s film adaptation of the Broadway play, Children of a Lesser God (1986) achieved wide critical acclaim after featuring Deaf actor Marlee Matlin in the leading role, for which she went on to win an Academy Award. But while ASL features prominently in the film, its presence is significantly diminished by the fact that a hearing character is responsible for the telling of a Deaf protagonist’s story.

  • Appendices I
    Appendices I. Archival Sources Archival research for this monograph was conducted in Lviv, the former capital of Galicia, in 1983. To orient myself in the rich archival holdings of this city, I benefitted from the unpublished manuscript of Patricia K. Grimsted's forthcoming guide to Soviet Ukrainian archives and manuscript repositories' as well as from a number of published works.' Plans to use archives in Ternopil and Ivano-Frankivsk were frustrated, as was the plan to use the manuscript collection of the Institute of Literature of the Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR (in Kiev). Work in the Austrian archives in 1982 did not uncover sources of direct relevance to the subject of this monograph, but the Viennese archives remain an important and little-explored repository of historical documentation on Galician history. The richest collection of unpublished sources on the history of Galicia during the Austrian period is located in the Central State Historical Archives of the Ukrainian SSR in Lviv (U Tsentrainyi derzhavnyi istorychnyi arkhiv URSR u rn. Lvovi; abbre- viated as TsDIAL). The Central Archives have inherited the papers of various Galician government institutions and major civic organizations. Unfortunately, there is no published guide to these archives, although a number of articles describe aspects of their holdings.' The papers of the Presidium of the Galician Viceroy's Office (U Haiytske narnisnytstvo, rn. Lviv. Prezydiia) are contained in TsDIAL, fond 146, opysy 4-8 (and presumably others). Particularly valuable for this study were documents dealing with the publication and confiscation of political brochures and periodicals, including , Patricia K.

  • Entity-Relationship Model of Ukrainian Sign Language
    ENTITY-RELATIONSHIP MODEL OF UKRAINIAN SIGN LANGUAGE CONCEPTS Maksym Davydov1, Olga Lozynska2, Volodymyr Pasichnyk3 Information Systems and Networks Department, Lviv Polytechnic National University, S. Bandery Str., 12, Lviv, 79013, UKRAINE, E-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] The modern science development, society computerization, use of multimedia and Internet technologies have created conditions for creation of computer communication systems for people with impaired hearing. Automatic translation means help these people to communicate and to overcome language and cultural barriers. The urgent task is to develop software tools that help in the study and translation of Ukrainian Sign Language (USL). For easy communication with deaf it is enough to create a system of sign language translation into text and vice versa. The complexity of automatic translation system development of Ukrainian Sign Language is strengthened by the lack of large dictionaries and corpus of USL. The absence of such corpora for the Ukrainian Sign Language requires the use of an alternative approach - the introduction of semantic concepts (concepts of the subject area) and study of the relationship between semantic concepts. Based on the analysis of linguistic relations between concepts of the Ukrainian Spoken Language and Ukrainian Sign Language entity-relationship model of concepts for building a translation system of the Ukrainian Sign Language is developed. Adequacy of the entity-relationship model of parallel sentences "Ukrainian Spoken Language - Ukrainian Sign Language" is investigated. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the system operation the following assessment are considered: Word Error Rate (WER) and Position Independent Error Rate (PER). The evaluation quality of the translation system using the entity- relationship model concepts shows a reduction in the percentage of incorrectly translated words in those sentences that contained concepts, from 42,83% to 34,58% WER and from 18,35% to 14,65% PER.

  • CLIFF in PIDKAMIN: ANALOGIES and INTERPRETATIONS Roman
    MUSAICA ARCHAEOLOGICA 2/2020 47–62 47 CLIFF IN PIDKAMIN: ANALOGIES AND INTERPRETATIONS Roman Liubun* __________________ *Katedra archeológie, Filozofická fakulta, Univerzita Komenského v Bratislave, Gondova 2, 811 02 Bratislava, [email protected] Abstrakt: Kameň v Pidkamine: analógie a interpretácie. Pre územie západnej Ukrajiny je charakteristická prítom- nosť eróznych pieskovcových zvyškov neogénneho obdobia cenozoika. Väčšinu z nich ľudia nejakým spôsobom využíva- li. Jedným z najvýznamnejších objektov je Pidkamin (Ľvovská oblasť). Keramický materiál potvrdzuje, že monument fun- goval od doby bronzovej až do 18. storočia. Predpokladá sa, že skala slúžila ako svätyňa. Táto hypotéza bola vypracovaná na základe analýzy skalných štruktúr, ktorých analógie sú v Bulharsku. Kľúčové slová: skalné zvyšky, západná Ukrajina, Gologoro-Kremenecké pohorie, Pidkamin, svätyna, petroglyfy Abstract: For the territory of Western Ukraine, there is a characteristic presence of erosive sandstone remains of the Neogene period by the Cenozoic. Most of them used by people in some way. One of the most prominent objects is Pid- kamin (Lviv Region). The ceramic material confirms that the monument functioned from the Bronze Age until modern times. It is believed that the rock was used as a shrine. This statement was made based on the rock structures, analogies of which are in Bulgaria. Keywords: Rock remains, Western Ukraine, Gologoro-Kremenets ridge, Pidkamin, sanctuary, petroglyphs https://doi.org/10.46283/musarch.2020.2.02 1. Introduction Several eroded sandstone remains of the Neogene period of the Cenozoic Era are known on the territory of Western Ukraine – mainly in the areas of Eastern Carpathians, Ciscarpathians, Podilian Tovtry, and the so-called Holohoro-Kremenets ridge (Pidkamin, Tustan, Bubnyšče, Rozgirče, Ternošorska Lada, Bahna, Hrehit, Pysanyj Kamin and others).
