Reflexive Teacher: Main Difficulties of the Reflexive Activity of Teachers with Various Pedagogical Work Experience

The relevance of the study is due to the need to identify the position of teachers in their professional activities, the manifestation of its reflective activity. A special attitude of the teacher to his own activity, when the very content of this activity is for the teacher as an object of analysis, reflection and evaluation, characterizes the reflective teacher. It is important that each teacher takes a similar position. In the modern conditions, the modernization of the national education takes on a special significance of the teacher's reflection. Without a reflective view of yourself, your activity and its effectiveness, it is not possible for the teacher to develop personally, to identify and comprehend the reasons for his successes and failures, and hence a successful solution. The purpose of this article is to investigate the difficulties in the reflective activity of teachers with different teaching experience. Research methods: In the process of research, an analysis of the scientific literature, included observation, ascertaining the pedagogical experiment, testing, expert survey, analysis of the results of the experimental work of the empirical study, as well as statistical processing of quantitative research results. Results of the study: Diagnosis of the difficulty level in reflexive activity was carried out with the help of the author's test questionnaire "My reflexive difficulties". The questionnaire includes 6 components of reflexive activity difficulties and reveals the difficulties of the theoretical-methodological, motivational, value-semantic, emotional, process-activity and research character. Relevance of the study: The study showed the need to identify reflexive difficulties and the formation of reflexive skills. Awareness of the need for reflexive activity in practical comprehension is developed by the installation for constant introspection, assessment and self-assessment, as well as analysis of the results obtained. Thus a reflexive teacher is formed. The materials of the article can be useful for teachers, teachers of higher educational institutions, researchers for teaching reflexive activity

Colour Characteristics of the Forest Soils in the Volga–Kama Forest-Steppe Region

The numerical values of colour characteristics in the structurally differentiated soils of the Republic of Tatarstan have been obtained using the colour space models (RGB, HSB, and L*a*b), which make it possible to objectively describe the colour of soils. It has been shown that the intensity of colour components of the forest soils in Tatarstan changes in the following way: from 97 to 187 for red, from 84 to 177 for green, and from 40 to 158 for blue. The intensity of red and green components in the soil profile increases as moving closer to the parent material. Based on the quantitative determination of colour values in 340 soil samples, the regression equations enabling the conversion of RGB images into the Munsell colour system have been constructed

On the basis of the analysis the conclusion is drawn that, despite the main mission of medical tourism as instrument of improvement of the population, his key agent is the tourist market. This segment of the market is capable to organize a travel to the vacation spot and to provide necessary service, and receiving medical services predetermines only the purpose and can influence the choice of the vacation spot. Scientists in the field of tourism, health care and economy consider medical tourism one of the most perspective types of the industry in the 21st century that causes development of medicine, improvement of quality of the provided medical services, improvement of efficiency of health care systems, development of the sphere of tourism and the industries accompanying it, increase in a contribution to GDP of the region/country

Social Determinants of Human Health: Quantitative and Qualitative Studies

The study is devoted to the analysis of social determinants of human health, their quantitative and qualitative aspects. The analysis was carried out according to the authors' methodology, which includes a comparison of the results of the questionnaire (subjective qualitative assessment) and the correlation analysis of social determinants with the life expectancy indicator. The Republic of Tatarstan, a dynamically developing region of the Russian Federation, where life expectancy is much higher compared to other regions (75.03 years in 2019), was chosen as the territorial object of analysis. The study hypothesized that it could be proved that social determinants were the most important component of health, and without them, its formation, maintenance, and strengthening would be impossible. Based on the results of the comprehensive analysis, the hypothesis was confirmed: 1) the qualitative analysis confirmed that the respondents were aware of the impact of social determinants on their health and identified individual indicators: the level of social security, stress, ecology, as well as immediate environment and working conditions; 2) the results of the quantitative analysis made it possible to state that health was affected by the following social determinants: divorce rates, environmental pollution, provision of medical services, construction rates and housing costs

The phenomenon of “victimization” in modern Russian and foreign studies

© 2020, Kazan Federal University. All rights reserved. Victimization of children and adolescents, as well as other groups in society is an important issue and complex issue that needs to be better understood so that measures can be put in place at every level to prevent and correct these phenomena. This study was based on the bibliometric analysis of relevant scientific literature in both Russian and foreign publications. The resulting qualitative analysis indicated a variety of viewpoints on the concept of victimology, with different approaches, theories of victimization, and concepts of specific aspects of prevention, minimization, correction, and individual assistance. A large number of publications are devoted to the relationship of victimization and other phenomena, especially in the school environment. Despite the diversity of the scientific field, the study identified differences in the knowledge of this definition in the global databases and an increasing number of publications dealing with this problem by both foreign and Russian researchers. The phenomenon of “victimization” requires a further in-depth approach to research of an interdisciplinary nature, as well as the development of conditions, models and methods of de-victimization at various levels
