Curriculum Development for Teaching Swimming in Hungary

Given the lack of publications describing changing curricular matters and the role of teaching and learning swimming in Hungary, the purpose of this study was to analyze the curricula of 1995, 2001, and 2003. It also was the authors’ goal to examine the role and place of swimming instruction in school education and provide discussion points to promote further review and the possible effects on teaching methodology and skill acquisition. The authors analyzed the Hungarian curricula for the years 1995, 2001, and 2003 based on records, official documents, administrative texts, and formal reports on curricular structures and applications. They concluded that the process of continuous curricular change has impeded the process of teaching and learning swimming in Hungary and recommend that teachers and local curriculum developers make an effort to integrate the best parts of each curriculum

Monitoring a high--amplitude Delta Sct star for 152 days: discovery of 12 additional modes and modulation effects in the light curve of CoRoT 101155310

The detection of small-amplitude nonradial modes in high-amplitude Delta Sct (HADS) variables has been very elusive until at least five of them were detected in the light curve of V974 Oph obtained from ground-based observations. The combination of radial and nonradial modes has a high asteroseismic potential, thanks to the strong constraints we can put in the modelling. The continuous monitoring of ASAS 192647-0030.0=CoRoT 101155310 (P=0.1258 d, V=13.4) ensured from space by the CoRoT (Convection, Rotation and planetary Transits) mission constitutes a unique opportunity to exploit such potential. The 22270 CoRoT measurements were performed in the chromatic mode. They span 152 d and cover 1208 consecutive cycles. After the correction for one jump and the long-term drift, the level of the noise turned out to be 29 micromag. The phase shifts and amplitude ratios of the coloured CoRoT data, the HARPS spectra, and the period-luminosity relation were used to determine a self-consistent physical model. In turn, it allowed us to model the oscillation spectrum, also giving feedback on the internal structure of the star. In addition to the fundamental radial mode f1=7.949 c/d with harmonics up to 10f1, we detected 12 independent terms. Linear combinations were also found and the light curve was solved by means of 61 frequencies (smallest amplitude 0.10 mmag). The newest result is the detection of a periodic modulation of the f1 mode (triplets at +/-0.193 c/d centred on f1 and 2f1), discussed as a rotational effect or as an extension of the Blazhko effect to HADS stars. The physical model suggests that CoRoT 101155310 is an evolved star, with a slight subsolar metallic abundance, close to the terminal age main sequence. All the 12 additional terms are identified with mixed modes in the predicted overstable region.Comment: 10 pages, 6 figures, Tables 1 and 2 available at CDS after publication.

Planned economy and socialist market in the Hungarian food economy

I. National Conference on Agricultural Economics, Budapest, 24-26. March 1969

Reforma económica en Hungría

The national economy is increasingly complex and complicated. Economic activities are complex as well, in the context of the continuous expansion of the number and significance of interdependent processes and relationships. In the Hungarian case, economists, party officials and experts hired by the state took part in the preparation and elaboration of economic reforms. The new management system tries to establish an optimal relationship between planning, long-term economic action and the market. An economic reform of the depth of the Hungarian is at the same time a social and political reform. Hence, its introduction has a considerable impact on the established order of social groups and political institutions, on the patterns of interests developed in the past, and on the ways of thinking in society.La economía nacional es cada día más compleja y complicada. Las actividades económicas lo son también, en el contexto de la continua expansión del número y significación de los procesos y relaciones interdependientes. Para el caso húngaro, economistas, personeros responsables del partido y expertos contratados por el Estado tomaron parte en la preparación y elaboración de reformas económicas. El nuevo sistema de administración trata de establecer una óptima relación entre la planificación, la acción económica a largo plazo y el mercado. Una reforma económica de la profundidad de la húngara es al mismo tiempo una reforma social y política. De ahí que su introducción tenga considerable impacto en el orden establecido de los grupos sociales y de las instituciones políticas, en los patrones de intereses desarrollados en el pasado y en las formas de pensamiento de la sociedad
