Programowanie w edukacji wczesnoszkolnej - złożenia a rzeczywistość
2018
Opanowanie wiedzy i umiejętności związanych z programowaniem jest warunkiem skutecznego funkcjonowania człowieka we współczesnym świecie, ale również determinantem wejścia ludzkości na kolejny poziom rozwoju. Osoby, które ich nie posiadają, są często jedynie bezkrytycznymi wykonawcami cudzych poleceń, umieszczonych w programach komputerowych zainstalowanych w urządzeniach przez nich stosowanych. Oddziaływania dotyczące kształtowania w/w kompetencji są wpisane w proces edukacyjny współczesnej szkoły (także w odniesieniu do edukacji wczesnoszkolnej). Wyraźnie mówi o nich podstawa programowa kształcenia ogólnego. Nauczyciele w przeważającej mierze znają i stosują się do jej zapisów. Wykorzystu…
Apokalipsa spełniona: casus epidemii AIDS
2020
Disasters are hardly ever unequivocal. Any attempt to sort them out remains a forever open task. A natural part of everyday life in the past, disasters have been reinvented by the modern world as a challenge that essentially needs to be eliminated from public life. Due to the dramatic expansion of humans and human activity, one can hardly call them ‘natural’ anymore. This article focuses on disasters and their significant culture-forming potential, discussing it primarily on the example of the AIDS epidemic. With this new epidemic, the catastrophic vision of history was rekindled and a specific (post-)apocalyptic social climate was created. AIDS, called the plague of the 20th century, reviv…
"Epidemia jako siła napędowa historii (?)" : choroba w ujęciu Petra Zelenki
2022
Przedmiotem analizy w artykule jest tekst sztuki teatralnej Elegance molekuly (2018) Petra Zelenki. Czeski dramatopisarz rekonstruuje w niej historię chemika Antonína Holego, którego badania przyczyniły się do wynalezienia m. in. leków antyretrowirusowych hamujących rozwój syndromu AIDS. Dzięki wykorzystaniu przez Zelenkę wszystkich trzech warstw mitu AIDS, jakie wyróżniła polska antropolożka Monika Sznajderman, prawdziwa historia firmy Gilead Sciences jest przyczynkiem do zaprezentowania kulturowego obrazu choroby oraz wywołanej przezeń epidemii w latach 80. i 90. XX wieku. Przy interpretacji dramatu sięgnięto również w charakterze komentarza do rozważań Susan Sontag (Choroba jako metafora…
Vademecum lektora języka polskiego na Słowacji i w Czechach - pomoce dydaktyczne
2017
The purpose of this study is to describe the specificity of teaching Polish as a foreign language to Slovaks and Czechs (including the advantages and disadvantages resulting from language transfer), and to present the available teaching materials for Slovak and Czech students. The text includes an evaluation of the practical utility of different PFL textbooks designed for these groups and presents some suggestions for new teaching Solutions, such as the textbooks created at the Comenius University in Bratislava.
Intended or Unintended Doping? A Review of the Presence of Doping Substances in Dietary Supplements Used in Sports
2017
Introduction: The use of dietary supplements is increasing among athletes, year after year. Related to the high rates of use, unintentional doping occurs. Unintentional doping refers to positive anti-doping tests due to the use of any supplement containing unlisted substances banned by anti-doping regulations and organizations, such as the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). The objective of this review is to summarize the presence of unlabeled doping substances in dietary supplements that are used in sports. Methodology: A review of substances/metabolites/markers banned by WADA in ergonutritional supplements was completed using PubMed. The inclusion criteria were studies published up until Se…
Clinical profile associated with HIV risk in Spanish youth
2018
Heterosexual transmission is the second route of new HIV infection diagnoses in Spain. A high percentage of young people use condom inconsistently. Beyond cognitive factors, emotional variables seem to be associated with sexual risk behavior. The aim was to examine the differential clinical profile between young people at risk and no-risk for HIV infection. A total of 424 heterosexuals were evaluated (M age =20.62; SD=2.16), and distributed into two groups: risk group (60.7%) and non-risk group (39.3%). They completed the AIDS Prevention Questionnaire, the Beck Depression Inventory, the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, the Penn State Worry Questionnaire, and the Brief Fear of Negative Evaluatio…

3D reconstruction techniques made easy: know-how and pictures
2005
Three-dimensional reconstructions represent a visual-based tool for illustrating the basis of three-dimensional post-processing such as interpolation, ray-casting, segmentation, percentage classification, gradient calculation, shading and illumination. The knowledge of the optimal scanning and reconstruction parameters facilitates the use of three-dimensional reconstruction techniques in clinical practise. The aim of this article is to explain the principles of multidimensional image processing in a pictorial way and the advantages and limitations of the different possibilities of 3D visualisation.
Minimal Reporting Standards for Active Middle Ear Hearing Implants.
2017
There is currently no standardized method for reporting audiological, surgical and subjective outcome measures in clinical trials with active middle ear implants (AMEIs). It is often difficult to compare studies due to data incompatibility and to perform meta-analyses across different centres is almost impossible. A committee of ENT and audiological experts from Germany, Austria and Switzerland decided to address this issue by developing new minimal standards for reporting the outcomes of AMEI clinical trials. The consensus presented here aims to provide a recommendation to enable better inter-study comparability.
Role of the dental surgeon in the early detection of adults with underlying HIV infection / AIDS
2011
A review is made of the late diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, a subject of growing interest in public health. It has been estimated that in Europe 30% of all HIV-infected people are unaware of their seropositive condition, and this in turn is associated with a poorer long-term disease prognosis and an increased risk of transmission to other individuals. The role of the dental surgeon in this context could be of great importance, since there are many oral lesions that can suggest the existence of underlying infection. The study also addresses the controversial subject of rapid HIV testing, and whether these tests should be performed on a routine basis in the dental …
