Problems on the teaching of geometry in comprehensive schools for 21st century by Valentina Dagienė

“…Geometry involves three kinds of cognitive processes which fulfill specific epistemological functions: (1) visualization processes with regard to space representation for the illustration of a statement, for the heuristic exploration of a complex situation, etc.; (2) construction processes by tools: construction of figu­rations can work like a model; (3) reasoning in relationship to discursive processes for extension of knowledge, for proof, for explanation. …”

Effect of Variable Properties and Moving Heat Source on Magnetothermoelastic Problem under Fractional Order Thermoelasticity by Chunbao Xiong, Ying Guo

“…The distributions of the nondimensional temperature, displacement, and stress in the rod are obtained and illustrated graphically. The effects of the temperature-dependent properties, the velocity of the moving heat source, the fractional order parameter, and so forth on the considered variables are concerned and discussed in detail, and the results show that they significantly influence the variations of the considered variables.…”

L’intérêt de la DVP pour (re)donner du sens aux apprentissages by Olivier Blond-Rzewuski

“…Through an original approach, with Lipmannian connotation, the goal is to promote or develop the "student posture" of pupils, somewhat using a pedagogy of astonishment or enigma. An illustration of this approach is proposed as part of reading in Cycle 3.…”

The Impact of Family Sustainable Livelihood and Environmental Cognition on Herdsmen’s Choice of Production Behavior by Qihang Wang, Yinjia Miao

“…This study analyzed the influence of sustainable livelihood and environmental cognition on herdsmen’s production behaviors on basis of logistic model. The consequences illustrated that the social capital followed by material capital, financial capital, and human capital has the greatest impact on herdsmen’s production behaviors, but the natural capital played a vital role in promoting herdsmen’s choice of raising breeding scale. …”
