Electronic Social Networks as Supporting Means of Educational Process in Higher Education Institutions
Given research describes experience of electronic social networks use in educational practices. It was determined that electronic social networks can be a powerful tool for support of educational process in higher education institutions, namely to support study of different disciplines. There are main advantages of electronic social networks use for education: universal accessibility and free of charge; possibility of instant messaging and multimedia data; user-friendly intuitive interface; ability to search data and information; availability of event scheduling, invitations, reminder settings; support for synchronous and asynchronous communication between network members; access from different devices. It is emphasized that one of the main advantages of electronic social networks is receipt of quick feedback and convenience of their tools and services. Nowadays, it is important to include network educational interaction in existing models of study organization. It is advisable to use electronic social networks to manage educational process in higher education institution. Efficiency of electronic social networks use depends on intensity and need for their use in educational system management for implementation of organizational, educational, psychological and pedagogical
functions and ensuring universal communication with subjects of educational process. Expediency of electronic social networks use to carry out research work at university is described. Electronic social networks are convenient tool to conduct surveys and questionnaires, to create thematic groups for specific issue discussion. Also it is possible to interact with researchers from different countries, share experiences and disseminate research findings, invite those who wish to participate in various scientific activities using these networks
On Prospects for Exploration of Supersymmetry in Double Beta Decay Experiments
We analyze constraints on the parameters of the R-parity violating
supersymmetry which can be extracted from non-observation of the neutrinoless
nuclear double beta decay () at a given half-life lower bound.
Our analysis covers a large class of phenomenologically viable R-parity
violating SUSY models. We introduce special characteristics: the SUSY
sensitivity of a decaying isotope and the SUSY reach of a
experiment. The former provides a physical criterion for a
selection of the most promising isotopes for SUSY searches and the latter gives
a measure of success for a experiment in exploring the
R-parity violating SUSY parameter space. On this basis we discuss prospects for
exploration of supersymmetry in various experiments.Comment: 11 pages, 5 Postscript figures. Modified and updated version is
