Powstania zapamiętane. Opowieści wspomnieniowe na temat powstań śląskich funkcjonujące w obiegu społecznym
2021
Przedmiotem artykułu jest sposób funkcjonowania w obiegu społecznym pamięci o powstaniach śląskich. Ważną rolę pełnią tu opowieści byłych powstańców, które ze względu na dystans czasowy podlegają folkloryzacji i fabularyzacji (do narracji włączane są wydarzenia późniejsze, związane na przykład z przeżyciami z czasów II wojny światowej). Wspomnienia drukowane są w antologiach, zrealizowano również projekt Filmowa encyklopedia powstań śląskich, gdzie o życiu powstańców opowiadają ich potomkowie. Wiedza o powstaniach popularyzowana jest także przez organizowanie konkursów dla młodzieży, przedstawianie rekonstrukcji historycznych, spotkania i wystawy. Autorka zauważa, że we współczesnych sposob…
A cross-cultural study using Napping (R): Do Korean and French consumers perceive various green tea products differently?
2013
http://www.elsevier.com/locate/foodres ; WOS:000323239400065; International audience; With the increasing demands of global trading, interests in cross-cultural comparisons have increased to gain understanding in the differences of sensory perception and consumer acceptability. The objective of this study was to compare the differences in perception by Korean and French consumers of green tea produced in Korea, China, and Japan, using Napping (R) followed by ultra flash profile. In addition, overall acceptability was examined in both countries. The results of Napping (R) showed that the Korean consumers were able to discriminate the green teas according to their origins and processing metho…
It’s More Fun in the Philippines? The Challenges of Tourism
2017
The Philippines have been in recent years a minor destination of international tourism flows, especially from Europe. Most visitors are Asians (Korea, Japan), Americans or Australians. This chapter examines some strengths of the Philippines in terms of tourism potentials (landscapes, undersea diving, cultural heritage), then its organizational and infrastructural weaknesses (transportation), as well as the lack of proper maintenance of tourism assets and the overcrowding of Boracay island, before examining the tourism policies of the national government (the successful “Its more fun in the Philippines” campaign, development of gambling, medical tourism and ecotourism). Four case studies in …
Sociolinguistic Resilience Among Young Academics. A Quantitative Analysis in Germany and France
2021
International audience; Already Friedrich Schiller was convinced that language mirrors a nation. If this is the case, then the often deplored ‘brutalization of language’, which has almost become a buzzword in the wake of the refugee crisis in Germany that started in 2015, points to a serious social crisis by raising questions of (national) identity and self-understanding. Based on newly introduced sociolinguistic resilience concept in line with the concept of group focus enmity (GFE) combining the dimensions of co-adaptation and co-evolution of linguistic signs, this article presents preliminary empirical evidence of a ‘classroom’ survey conducted among students in four university towns in …
On personalized adaptation of learning environments
2017
This work is devoted to the development of personalized training systems. A major problem in learning environments is applying the same approach to all students: i.e., teaching materials, time for their mastering, and a training program that is designed in the same way for everyone. Although, each student is individual, has his own skills, ability to assimilate the material, his preferences and other. Recently, recommendation systems, of which the system of personalized learning is a part, have become widespread in the learning environments. On the one hand, this shift is due to mathematical approaches, such as machine learning and data mining, that are used in such systems while, on the ot…
Water-use efficiency and transpiration across European forests during the Anthropocene
2015
Considering the combined effects of CO2 fertilization and climate change drivers on plant physiology leads to a modest increase in simulated European forest transpiration in spite of the effects of CO2-induced stomatal closure. The Earth’s carbon and hydrologic cycles are intimately coupled by gas exchange through plant stomata1,2,3. However, uncertainties in the magnitude4,5,6 and consequences7,8 of the physiological responses9,10 of plants to elevated CO2 in natural environments hinders modelling of terrestrial water cycling and carbon storage11. Here we use annually resolved long-term δ13C tree-ring measurements across a European forest network to reconstruct the physiologically driven r…
Polityczna i militarna batalia o przyłączenie Wielkopolski do Polski po I wojnie światowej na kartach podręczników do nauczania historii. Casus polsk…
2020
In the opinion o f the vast majority o f historians, school histoiy education is extremely important. They emphasize that it plays a key role not only from the point ofview ofshaping the knowledge ofyoung people about the past, but also in defining the historical awareness o f the whole society, because often what students learn at school determines their lifelong knowledge o f many historical issues. Unfortunately, the awareness o f these obvious statements does not go hand in hand with respect for the achierements o f history didactics. As a scientific discipline, history didactics undertakes as one o f its most important research areas the analysis o f school history textbooks which are …
Yrittäjän vapaus hoivapalveluissa : tutkimus hoivayrittäjien praktisesta vapaudesta
2018
Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli analysoida yrittäjän vapautta hoivan tuottamisessa yhteiskuntafilosofisesta näkökulmasta. Tutkimuksen käsitteellinen konteksti rakentui hoivasta yrittäjyyden toimialana, jossa hoivaa jäsennettiin palveluna ja markkinaistuneena tuotteena. Tutkimuksen teoreettiset käsitteet muodostuivat Hegelin oikeusfilosofiaan perustuvista praktisen vapauden ulottuvuuksista, joita täydennettiin Berlinin negatiivisen ja positiivisen vapauden käsitteillä. Tutkimusaineisto muodostui viidentoista yrittäjän haastatteluista (N=15). Kahdeksan (8) yrittäjää toimi itsenäisinä yrittäjinä ja seitsemän (7) ketjuyrittäjinä kolmessa suomalaisessa franchisingketjussa. Tutkimuksen kohteena oleva…
Celebrity endorsements and congratulatory messages: Jordan v. Jewel Food Stores: A case of right to publicity versus commercial speech
2016
Product endorsements by athletes are common brand-building tactics. The brand receives additional consumer attention and goodwill created by the athlete. The athlete receives compensation that may exceed their player salary. However, local sport heroes create community pride for their accomplishments. Fans show their pride by congratulating the sport star. Is a local, non-endorsing company allowed to offer similar congratulations? In 2012, a US appellate court was asked to decide a case where Michael Jordan claimed that a Chicago grocery store chain's congratulatory message violated his right to publicity. Through an analysis of this legal case, this paper will discuss the following issues:…
Restoration and Enhancement of Historical Stereo Photos
2021
Restoration of digital visual media acquired from repositories of historical photographic and cinematographic material is of key importance for the preservation, study and transmission of the legacy of past cultures to the coming generations. In this paper, a fully automatic approach to the digital restoration of historical stereo photographs is proposed, referred to as Stacked Median Restoration plus (SMR+). The approach exploits the content redundancy in stereo pairs for detecting and fixing scratches, dust, dirt spots and many other defects in the original images, as well as improving contrast and illumination. This is done by estimating the optical flow between the images, and using it …
