Efficiency Assessment of Supply Chain Policy in Fishing Industry Functioning at the Mesolevel
Fishery of Primorsky Krai is one of the largest in the system of fishing industry of the Far East and Russia in general that is caused by resource base, an advantageous geopolitical position, favorable climatic conditions in supply chain policy. Increase in efficiency of fishing industry is one of the most important economic problems of Russia and the priority purpose of Primorsky Krai. Recently there was a set of techniques, developments and offers on assessment and increase in efficiency of activity of economic subjects. However, most of them are based on calculation of the indicators reflecting results of activity of the enterprises which function not in a fish complex. Considering structural features of branch systems, the special relevance is acquired by a research of efficiency of economic entities at the mesolevel. In the article author's methodical approach of assessment of efficiency of functioning of fishing industry at the mesolevel is presented. This approach allows not only to estimate in a complex all components of efficiency, but also to consider branch specifics of fishing industry
Project Assignments Assessment in the Content-Integrated Language Course: Stages, Forms, and Online Tools
Today, according to various educational documents, a university teacher must be able to control the learning process not only in order to compare the level achieved by students with a certain minimum of requirements laid down in the curriculum on the basis of competent and transparent assessment criteria and to record changes in the general level of preparedness of each student and the dynamics of his successes, but for the diagnosis of problems that arise among students in the learning process (formative assessment); for the development of reflection skills; skills of self-assessment and peer-assessment by students of their achievements. Unfortunately, at the current stage, peer-assessment, reflection and self-assessment are a weak point in the educational process, since usually the student does not participate in control and assessment, he is not involved in the process of developing or choosing assessment criteria, in peer and self-assessment, in reflective activity after completing the project assignment or taking a course. The article examines control and feedback as important components of the methodological system: the stages of control, assessment methods, control and reflection tools. The purpose of this article is to develop the approaches for assessing professionally oriented projects within the framework of a content-integrated language course (CLIL). The article analyzes the didactic potential of feedback during project activities and the conditions for providing effective feedback. The stages of web projects’ assessment, the pre requisites for the successful implementation of the activity in blended learning are described as well as online tools and mobile applications that allow to ensure effective feedback, reflection and assessment in a content-integrated language course
The influence of Holstein crossbreeding on the reproductive qualities of Black-and-White cows
The purpose of the research was to study the main indicators of the reproductive ability of Black-and-White cows, depending on the proportion of Holstein genes. As the material for the research there were taken the data of breeding and zootechnical records of cows of Black-and-White breed of CJSC Semenovsky Breeding Plant of the Mari El Republic. The results of the research showed that with an increase in the proportion of thorough-bredness on the Holstein breed the reproductive ability of cows improved. Thus, the first-calf heifers with a low proportion of Holstein genes (up to 12.5 %) had the latest age of the first fruitful insemination and the first calving (21.9 months and 32.3 months). With an increase in thorough-bredness up to 87.6 % and more, the age for the first insemination decreased by 7.7 months (31.8 %), the age of the first calving - by 7.4 month (21.8 %), fertility index increased by 5.8 (14.6 %). At the same time, the duration of the service period in high-blooded animals increased by 18.8-26.4 days (15.8-23.8 %). The duration of the calving interval in all genetic groups exceeded the optimal time and changed in accordance with the change in the service period. The longest calving interval was in cows with the thorough-bredness degree of 87.6 % (13.8 months), which was 0.1-0.7 months longer than in animals of other genetic groups. There was a low coefficient of reproductive ability of the studied animals of all genetic groups ‒ 0.91-0.93. The significant influence of Holstein genes on the age for the first fruitful insemination (ɳ2 = 9.57 %), the first calving (ɳ2 = 8.80 %) and the fertility of cows (ɳ2 = 1.98 %) (P≤0.05) was established. The effect of the genotype on the duration of the service period and calving interval was weak (ɳ2 = 0.09 % and ɳ2 = 0.26 %) and unreliable
Oligocene-Early Miocene Molluscs and Diatoms from the Kitami-Tsubetsu area, Eastern Hokkaido, Japan
Transitional upper Oligocene-lower Miocene marine deposits crop out in the Kitami-Tsubetsu area of eastern Hokkaido and consist of the Tatsukobu and Tsubetsu Formations in ascending order. The Tatsukobu Formation (870-970 m thick) consists mainly of hard shale and siltstone and contains two upward fining sedimentary cycles : the Sandstone to Lower Hard Shale members and the Sandy Siltstone to Upper Hard Shale members. The Tsubetsu Formation (950-1, 100 m thick) conformably overlies the Tatsukobu Formation, is mainly composed of massive siltstone and contains well bioturbated and glauconitic sandstone in its basal part. Overall, one sedimentary cycle is recognized in the Tsubetsu Formation : Fine or Conglomeratic Sandstone, Hard Shale to Siltstone members with an upward coarsening in the uppermost sandy part of the last member. Diatom zonal subdivision and geologic age assignments of the two formations are based on the scheme of Gladenkov and Barron (1995) established at the Detroit Seamount, off eastern Kamchatka. The main parts of the Tatsukobu and Tsubetsu Formations are assigned to the upper upper Oligocene Rocella gelida Zone and the upper lower Miocene Thalassiosira fraga Zone, respectively, while the uppermost part of the Tatsukobu and the lowermost part of the Tsubetsu beds appear to be assignable to the uppermost upper Oligocene to lower lower Miocene T. praefraga Zone. The Oligocene/Miocene boundary, therefore, lies somewhere near the boundary between the two formations. Nonmarine planktonic diatoms represented solely by Aulacoseira species are restricted to the T. fraga Zone, which suggests a significant change of depositional environment at that horizon. Odontella sawamurae n. sp. is one of the most characteristic diatoms of the Tatsukobu Formation. There are four assemblages in the Tatsukobu molluscan fauna : Bathymalletia-Nuculana (Borissia)-Acilana, Nuculana (Borissia)-Portlandia (Portlandella)-Periploma, Macoma-Lucinoma-Periploma and Mytilus-Septifer-Macoma. The Tsubetsu molluscan fauna contains six assemblages : Acilana-Megayoldia Nuculana (Nuculana), Limopsis, Macoma-Periploma, Macoma-Mya and Zirphaea. Most of the assemblages indicate rather deep-water, mesoneritic to bathyal environments during nearly all the time of deposition of both the formations through the geographic area studied. Based on lithology and the distribution of molluscan assemblages, relatively shallower-water conditions are interpreted for the southern part during these times. Both the Tatsukobu and Tsubetsu molluscan faunas include assemblages with Acilana tokunagai and may be assigned to the so-called "Acilana tokunagai fauna." The latter is considered to be several widely distributed correlative assemblages which characterized bathyal muddy environments in the northwestern Pacific during the Oligocene-middle (? upper) Miocene. Four new molluscan species are described : Limopsis tsubetsuensis, Septifer kitamiensis, Megacardita(?) tatsukobuensis and Zirphaea tsubetsuensis. The Tatsukobu molluscan fauna is comparable taxonomically to the well known late Eocene-Oligocene Asagai-Poronai molluscan fauna, but includes some species more characteristic of the Miocene. The Tsubetsu molluscan fauna is biostratigraphically successive to the Tatsukobu fauna and contains species in common with deep-water associations of the early Miocene Akeyo-Sankebetsu and the early to middle Miocene Kurosedani-Kadonosawa-Chikubetsu molluscan faunas. Most species from the Tatsukobu and Tsubetsu Formations also occur in Sakhalin, Kamchatka and the Koryak Upland
The Map of Competencies of a Foreign Language University Teacher in the Context of Digitalization of Education
Over the past twenty years, a large number of legislative documents, educational standards have been adopted, effective pedagogical models, methods and approaches to teaching foreign languages have been developed at various levels of education in our country and abroad. The article analyzes these documents to describe the current competencies of teachers of foreign languages of higher education. The developed map of competencies of foreign language teachers, which includes digital, professional communicative, methodological and universal competencies, is the result of theoretical research and analysis of the pedagogical experience of distance professional development programs for teachers of foreign languages, designed at the Faculty of Foreign Languages and Regional Studies of Moscow State University named after M.V. Lomonosov. This map can be used as a tool for professional development, since it will allow teachers of foreign languages: to reflect and identify some gaps in their professional development; set short-term and long-term goals; determine the best ways to boost their professional growth; to create innovative models of professional development of teachers, based on a combination of fundamental professional knowledge, professional competencies and skills and assuming the formation of innovative thinking of university employees
Integrative Approach in Teaching English for Professional Purposes
The article discusses the need for an integrative approach in teaching Business English, aimed at forming and developing professional competencies of a future graduate in the field of management. The applied aspect of the integrative approach means implementing the principle of integration in all parts of the educational process. In this study, it concerns the formation of professional competencies during the process of learning a foreign language. The basis of the successful implementation of an integrative approach at all levels is adding a reflective component, forming of reflective position of a student. It helps analyze and order all the elements and stages of the studying activity from goal setting to result achieving; it also helps students realize themselves as active participants of the studying process. Today, due to various factors and reasons, the potential of the discipline “Business Foreign Language” in forming professional competencies often remains unrealized. The course developed allows to fully reveal its opportunities of forming professional competencies for a future manager. The course is focused on developing skills in a foreign language and professional training of students in such field of study as “Management”. This contributes to the students’ personal and professional growth. This is achieved due to the course’s content and structure, when the general concept of management and its functions being considered sequentially and logically. Including the reflective component into the studying process allows not only the teacher but also the students themselves follow the level of progress and the degree of achieving the goals set by them
Structure and magnetic properties of mechanically alloyed Fe3-xAlCrx powders
Mixtures of elemental powders of Fe3-xAlCrx composition, where x ∈ (0.8 -1.2) were mechanically alloyed in the AGO-2U planetary ball mill. Obtained powders consist of particles with median size of 0.5-1.6 µm; increase in the Cr content results in the decrease in the size of particles. According to the X-ray data, all of the as-milled alloys possess a single-phase disordered b.c.c. structure. Increase in Cr content results in the decrease in the grain size of alloys, whereas the dependence of the lattice parameter on the chemical composition is not conclusive. Mössbauer spectra for most of the alloys shows that iron atoms in this alloys, in spite of the fact that only one phase was detected using the X-ray diffraction, exist both in ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic conditions
Processing of chloride-containing productive solutions after uranium in situ leaching by ion exchange method
The uranium sorption from productive solutions containing chloride ions using anion-exchange resins was investigated. The VPAE ion exchanger had the highest values of the sorption capacity, which for the experiment in the static mode was 13 kg U m -3 , and for the experiment in the dynamic mode, it was equal to 36 kg U m -3 . The use of VPAE anion exchanger will make it possible for uranium recovery from productive solutions with an increased content of chloride without sacrificing the productivity of the sorption plant. The process of saturated resins regeneration by various reagents was investigated. The use of ammonium nitrate solution with sulfuric acid ensured maximum value of uranium recovery from the saturated resin phase (76-97%). © 2019, Gadjah Mada University. All rights reserved
Advantages of physical activity of varying intensity for patients with type 1 diabetes and its influence on glucose metabolism
Patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) have many benefits from regular exercise, including improved quality of life, lower blood pressure, improved lipid profile, increased insulin sensitivity, decreased insulin dose requirements, improved endothelial function, and reduced risk of micro- and macrovascular complications, as well as overall mortality. Despite these benefits, T1DM patients often do not get enough physical activity (PA) and are less physically active than their non-diabetic peers. The main reason for the low PA in patients with T1DM is the difficulty of glycemic management and the fear of developing hypoglycemia during exercise. Different types of training, such as moderate to high intensity exercise, high intensity interval training, have different effects on glycemic activity during exercise, which can be used to prevent the development of hypoglycemic reactions during and after exercise, along with carbohydrate intake and insulin dose adjustment. Higher-intensity exercise, as well as greater frequency and duration, are associated with a greater reduction in the risk of overall and cardiovascular mortality. Regular physical activity has a positive effect on reducing the risk of micro- and macrovascular complications, general and cardiovascular mortality in patients with type 1 diabetes, regardless of the quality of glycemic control, which can be used for prevention of T1DM complications
