Due to the new trends, the demand for special pedagogues in mainstream schools is increasing. Thus, the nature of both mainstream schools and mainstream pre-schools, as well as, special education establishments, is changing.

Not only does a narrow group of specialists deal with it, but it has also resulted in a change within the educational culture of Polish schools. In regard to the above, the school’s culture towards the Different, can be either pro-integrated or anti-integrated.

„A bym zapomniał:) Założyłem skrzynkę...”. Uwagi o etykiecie i estetyce językowej w korespondencji studentów z nauczycielami akademickimi

Communication in an unequal relationship (lecturer – student) is conditioned by an officialcommunicative situation. The interchange of information in such a communicative space (situation, place and time) requires the sender and the addressee of a message to use a definite code and to observe, among others, the rules of linguistic etiquette and verbal aesthetics. In unequal relationships, it is the lecturers who in their e-mails observe the rules of linguistic etiquette and aesthetics. Students, in turn, not always can adjust their utterances to a communicative situation and consequently their linguistic behaviours are considered as unsuitable and inadequate with regard to the addressee, the situation and the act of communication. A characteristic feature of students’ letters is the use of linguistic strategies characteristic for the spoken Polish (language) in unofficial situations, and also combining the norms of linguistic polite behaviours typical for an unequal relationship as well as equal relationship.Communication in an unequal relationship (lecturer – student) is conditioned by an official communicative situation.

Antennas for Academic CubeSats: VHF thru S-Band, What, How and Why

This work is dedicated to teams which want to build and fly their own antennas. Frequencies covered include VHF, UHF, L-band and S-band, while antenna types include monopole, dipole, J-pole, 5x5cm patch, and fractal patch. Antennas were simulated, built, attached to a satellite mockup, and tested in an anechoic chamber at the Northrop Grumman facilities. Simulation results and obtained test results are presented to support the teams in designing theirown antennas and to provide guidance and verification of realistic performance expectations

S-Band QPSK Transmitter for Picosatellites

The small satellite field has become popular amongst academia, amateur satellite (AMSAT) community, and commercial businesses due to the miniaturization of components and smaller form factors. Specifically, the picosatellite structure has gained attraction for its size and affordability of launch fees. However, the size constraint makes it difficult to generate power and limits the transmit power for downlink. Therefore, efficient data modulation is key to providing high data downlink rates. Also, the typical VHF and UHF frequency spectrum used for satellites is getting congested. Hence, the higher frequency bands such as S-band and X-band are gaining attraction and offer higher data bandwidth. To address both issues, an architecture to implement QPSK modulation for S-band operation is proposed. The design is focused on low-power picosatellites and the implementation is targeted for academia and the AMSAT community

Instytucje oświatowe w Tarnowie w świetle lokalnej prasy („Unia” 1882–1887)

Autorka dokonuje przeglądu prasy tarnowskiej na przykładzie dwutygodnika „Unia” wydawanego w latach 1882–1887. Z tekstów prasowych publikowanych na jej łamach wyłania się obraz działalności tarnowskich instytucji oświatowych. Dzięki temu można po latach dokonać rekonstrukcji życia kulturalno-oświatowego w mieście.Udostępnienie publikacji Wydawnictwa Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego finansowane w ramach projektu „Doskonałość naukowa kluczem do doskonałości kształcenia”.

Improving Ground Station by Reducing System Noise and Losses

This paper presents the GMU SatCom Ground Station design and implementation which is dedicated to increasing the quality of a communication downlink by reducing system noises and losses in the receiver path. The design follows practices of the Earth-Moon-Earth (EME) communication community. This effort was focused on the design of the LFA-type Yagi antennas, lightweight ultra-low noise amplifiers, small BPF filters, and combining polarizations through Software Define Radio (SDR) rather than at the antenna feed. All designs presented were implemented and tested. While the UHF path had a priority in our effort, a design of the VHF path is also explained. The paper details design data, characteristics, schematics, implementation, and guidance necessary for teams to design and build their own similar system

Rok 1920. Dzienniki Stanisławy Serafińskiej spisane na Koryznówce w Wiśniczu

Rok 1920 Dzienniki Stanisławy Serafińskiej spisane na Koryznówce w Wiśniczu (Dzienniki Rok 1920 Stanisława Serafińska – tytuł z okładki) opublikowane zostały z inicjatywy oddziału Muzeum Okręgowego w Tarnowie: Muzeum Pamiątek po Janie Matejce „Koryznówka” w Nowym Wiśniczu. Są pierwszym wydaniem tego tekstu w całości i stanowią istotny przyczynek uzupełniający lukę zarówno w historii regionu, jak również w historii dziejów opisywanych rodzin. Lektura Dzienników pozwala poznać nastawienie społeczności małopolskiej do działań politycznych krajowych i międzynarodowych oraz wydarzeń z 1920 r
