THE CONTRIBUTION OF SOCIOCULTURAL THEORY TO THE PROBLEM OF INSTRUCTIONAL INTERACTIONS IN THE SECOND LANGUAGE CLASSROOM

The article deals with the concept of a continuum of regulation being also important to understanding Vygotsky’s view of cognitive development which clearly suggests that communicative collaboration with adults or more skilled peers contributes to the development of self-regulation, that is, the capacity for independent problem solving and self-directed activity. Attention is drawn to the fact that in the language classroom, using sociocultural theory and its tenets as a framework, we would see a highly interactive classroom, where the students’ zone of proximal development is identified through strategies such as portfolios, and dialogue journals. Necessity of compiling a textbook based on the above-mentioned principles is stressed

A chain of events took place in different parts of the world: Spanish Florida, west-India, England, France, Spain, and Italy. We analyzed the actions of France, and England during the Religion Wars in Europe, and their preparation which were connected with wishes of Frenchmen and English to reach Spanish Florida and close the path of the Spanish ships route. Also, we show the intelligence activities of England to identify routes for further capturation of parts of modern North America and establish its protectorate

Lingvocultural Types in the British Language Picture of the World

One of the mainstreams in linguistics at the end of the XXth - beginning of the XXIst century is a linguocultural modeling of linguistic consciousness and communicative behaviour, i.e. the creation of a certain linguocultural archetype. By itself, the term "linguocultural archetype" is an interdisciplinary concept of cultural linguistics, linguistic conceptology and linguistic personology. The authors of the paper consider a linguocultural archetype, on the one hand, as a set of indicators, which make it possible to find a recognizable image of some individual, and on the other hand, reveal the features typical for a social or ethnic group, which is a binding basis for the archetype. The linguocultural archetypes presented in the paper are considered as typified individuals from a certain ethno-social group; they are recognisable by their characteristic features of verbal and non-verbal behaviour and value orientation in the society. The paper deals with conceptual, figurative, value and associative features of British linguocultural archetypes such as "English policeman", and "knocker up".The important indicators of linguocultural archetypes in cognitive consciousness of people are recurrence, associativity and textuality. The recognisability of the linguocultural archetypes "English policeman" and "knocker up" is stipulated by the mentioning of these professions in films, works of writers and artists, as well as in mass media materials.Una de las corrientes principales de la lingüística a finales del siglo XX y principios del siglo XXI es el modelado lingüístico de la conciencia lingüística y el comportamiento comunicativo, es decir, la creación de un determinado arquetipo lingüístico. En sí mismo, el término "arquetipo lingüístico" es un concepto interdisciplinario de lingüística cultural, conceptología lingüística y personología lingüística. Los autores del artículo consideran un arquetipo lingüístico, por un lado, como un conjunto de indicadores, que permiten encontrar una imagen reconocible de algún individuo, y por otro lado, revelan las características propias de un grupo social o étnico. , que es una base vinculante para el arquetipo. Los arquetipos lingüísticos presentados en el artículo se consideran como individuos tipificados de un determinado grupo etno-social; son reconocibles por sus rasgos característicos de comportamiento verbal y no verbal y orientación de valores en la sociedad. El artículo trata sobre las características conceptuales, figurativas, de valor y asociativas de los arquetipos lingüísticos británicos como "policía inglés" y "knocker up". Los indicadores importantes de los arquetipos lingüísticos en la conciencia cognitiva de las personas son la recurrencia, la asociatividad y la textualidad. La reconocibilidad de los arquetipos lingüísticos "policía inglés" y "knocker up" está estipulada por la mención de estas profesiones en películas, obras de escritores y artistas, así como en materiales de los medios de comunicació

Contemporary Presentation and Management of Valvular Heart Disease The EURObservational Research Programme Valvular Heart Disease II Survey

International audienceBackground: Valvular heart disease (VHD) is an important cause of mortality and morbidity and has been subject to important changes in management. The VHD II survey was designed by the EURObservational Research Programme of the European Society of Cardiology to analyze actual management of VHD and to compare practice with guidelines. Methods: Patients with severe native VHD or previous valvular intervention were enrolled prospectively across 28 countries over a 3-month period in 2017. Indications for intervention were considered concordant if the intervention was performed or scheduled in symptomatic patients, corresponding to Class I recommendations specified in the 2012 European Society of Cardiology and in the 2014 American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology VHD guidelines. Results: A total of 7247 patients (4483 hospitalized, 2764 outpatients) were included in 222 centers. Median age was 71 years (interquartile range, 62-80 years); 1917 patients (26.5%) were >= 80 years; and 3416 were female (47.1%). Severe native VHD was present in 5219 patients (72.0%): aortic stenosis in 2152 (41.2% of native VHD), aortic regurgitation in 279 (5.3%), mitral stenosis in 234 (4.5%), mitral regurgitation in 1114 (21.3%; primary in 746 and secondary in 368), multiple left-sided VHD in 1297 (24.9%), and right-sided VHD in 143 (2.7%). Two thousand twenty-eight patients (28.0%) had undergone previous valvular intervention. Intervention was performed in 37.0% and scheduled in 26.8% of patients with native VHD. The decision for intervention was concordant with Class I recommendations in symptomatic patients with severe single left-sided native VHD in 79.4% (95% CI, 77.1-81.6) for aortic stenosis, 77.6% (95% CI, 69.9-84.0) for aortic regurgitation, 68.5% (95% CI, 60.8-75.4) for mitral stenosis, and 71.0% (95% CI, 66.4-75.3) for primary mitral regurgitation. Valvular interventions were performed in 2150 patients during the survey; of them, 47.8% of patients with single left-sided native VHD were in New York Heart Association class III or IV. Transcatheter procedures were performed in 38.7% of patients with aortic stenosis and 16.7% of those with mitral regurgitation. Conclusions: Despite good concordance between Class I recommendations and practice in patients with aortic VHD, the suboptimal number in mitral VHD and late referral for valvular interventions suggest the need to improve further guideline implementation
