Success factors in student's assessments

В статье рассматривается иерархия факторов достижения жизненного успеха в представлениях студенческой молодежи. Информационную базу исследования составили результаты мониторинга социокультурных ориентаций студенческой молодежи Свердловской области. Проанализированы представления студентов о жизненном успехе по разным параметрам: осмысление студентами успеха как цели и результата их жизнедеятельности; достижение жизненного успеха как процесс, предполагающий необходимые ресурсы для своего осуществления. Подчеркивается значимость успеха как целевой ориентации проектирования и реализации жизненной стратегии студентов в современном социокультурном пространстве. На основе данных опроса проанализирована структура факторов жизненного успеха студенческой молодежи. Делается вывод о том, что представления студентов о факторах, способствующих достижению жизненного успеха, противоречивы. Наиболее значимые факторы успеха современного студенчества – интеллект, способности, а также наличие связей и влиятельных друзей, родственников. Отмечается, что в условиях экономической неопределенности возрастают патерналистские ожидания студенческой молодежи, снижается субъектность при конструировании жизненного успеха. Также усиливается влияние внешних, аскриптивных факторов, таких как надежда на внешние обстоятельства, использование любых средств для достижения личной успешности.We consider the hierarchy of factors to achieve success in life in students' performances. The information base of the study were the results of the monitoring of socio-cultural orientations of students of the Sverdlovsk region. We have analyzed the representation of students about success in life on various parameters: understanding success of students as the goal and the result of their life; achieving success in life as a process that requires the necessary resources for its implementation. It emphasized the importance of success as a target orientation of the design and implementation of vital strategy of students in the modern social and cultural space. On the basis of the survey data we analyzed the structure of the factors of success in life students. We concluded the contradictory representations of students about the factors that contribute to success in life. The most important success factors of modern students - intelligence, abilities, as well as the business connections and influential friends, relatives. We note that in times of economic uncertainty increase paternalistic expectations of students, reduced subjectivity in the construction of success in life. Also, amplifies the impact of external ascriptive factors, such as the hope of the external circumstances, and use any means to achieve personal success

Topology optimization of dispersive plasmonic nanostructures in the time-domain

Topology optimization techniques have been applied in integrated optics and nanophotonics for the inverse design of devices with shapes that cannot be conceived by human intuition. At optical frequencies, these techniques have only been utilized to optimize nondispersive materials using frequency-domain methods. However, a time-domain formulation is more efficient to optimize materials with dispersion. We introduce such a formulation for the Drude model, which is widely used to simulate the dispersive properties of metals, conductive oxides, and conductive polymers. Our topology optimization algorithm is based on the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method, and we introduce a time-domain sensitivity analysis that enables the evaluation of the gradient information by using one additional FDTD simulation. The existence of dielectric and metallic structures in the design space produces plasmonic field enhancement that causes convergence issues. We employ an artificial damping approach during the optimization iterations that, by reducing the plasmonic effects, solves the convergence problem. We present several design examples of 2D and 3D plasmonic nanoantennas with optimized field localization and enhancement in frequency bands of choice. Our method has the potential to speed up the design of wideband optical nanostructures made of dispersive materials for applications in nanoplasmonics, integrated optics, ultrafast photonics, and nonlinear optics

INQUINAMENTO INDOOR DA RADON. UNA APPLICAZIONE DELLE RETI BAYESIANE A SUPPORTO DELLA DIAGNOSI

Nel quadro più generale della tematica del controllo della qualità ambientale e più in particolare dell’Indoor Air Quality, la presente relazione riporta lo studio di un fenomeno di inquinamento da radon riguardante la scuola “G. Mancino” di Palermo. Lo spunto viene offerto dal fatto che nel 2005, nel corso di un monitoraggio della radioattività ambientale di Palermo, i tecnici dell’ARPA Sicilia hanno rilevato in questa scuola elementare degli anni ’30, livelli di radon indoor molto superiori ai limiti di legge fissati dal D.Lgs. 241/2000. Nella prima fase, dopo lo studio delle caratteristiche tipologiche e costruttive del plesso e l’acquisizione dei dati di misura pregressi, si è proceduto ad una nuova campagna di monitoraggio rivolta al rilievo di dati e misure sperimentali sulla presenza del radon indoor e dei dati meteoclimatici del contesto specifico. Nella seconda fase è stata formulata una proposta di intervento sostenuta dall’analisi dei meccanismi di inquinamento attraverso modelli di simulazione. In particolare l’approccio metodologico dello studio procede attraverso lo sviluppo di un modello di analisi basato sulle reti bayesiane, rilevatosi uno strumento utile di supporto per la diagnosi e le conseguenti decisioni progettuali, capace di controllare e descrivere fenomeni complessi e di stimare relazioni probabilistiche tra cause ed effetti

Parallel FDTD modelling of nonlocality in plasmonics

As nanofabrication techniques become more precise, with ever smaller feature sizes, the ability to model nonlocal effects in plasmonics becomes increasingly important. While nonlocal models based on hydrodynamics have been implemented using various computational electromagnetics techniques, the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) version has remained elusive. Here we present a comprehensive FDTD implementation of nonlocal hydrodynamics, including for parallel computing. As a sub-nanometer step size is required to resolve nonlocal effects, a parallel implementation makes the computational cost of nonlocal FDTD more affordable. We first validate our algorithms for small spherical metallic particles, and find that nonlocality smears out staircasing artifacts at metal surfaces, increasing the accuracy over local models. We find this also for a larger nanostructure with sharp extrusions. The large size of this simulation, where nonlocal effects are clearly present, highlights the importance and impact of a parallel implementation in FDTD. CCB

Intellectual Grounds of Project Activities in Multicultural Region of Bessarabia: the Ways of Formation in High School

The article analyzes constructive experience of European Higher Education Institutions toencourage students’ participation in transboundary and regional socio-educational projects. The articledeals with the role of practical thinking – difficult and integrative cognitive process – in actualizationof the youth’s project activity. Reasonable interpretation of the term “projecting” as the method of“practice-oriented science” and forms of innovation creation are based on the analysis of some projectefficiency. Current scientific presentations of social projecting constructed social innovations are underanalysis. The article describes the technology of the students’ familiarization with social projects as anindependent variant of local region problem decision where definite stages and technologies aredistinguished

Pentingnya Inovasi Media Pembelajaran Berbasis Digital di Abad-21

This study aims to determine the importance of Digital-Based Learning Media Innovation in the 21st Century. The research method used in this study is library research with qualitative research. With the results of research that the use of technological developments that are all digital in the current era makes it easier for teachers to create innovative learning media that will be used by students in the learning process. One example of learning media innovation is Youtube, Microsoft Teams and Game Based Learning. Innovations are carried out as a form of sensitivity to existing technological advances, this can affect the learning process, namely how students can receive information or insights if the learning media provided is not digitized. Of course, the information obtained by students who use digital-based learning media will be different from those that do not
