THE USING OF DIGITAL TOOLS IN THE PROJECT ACTIVITIES OF STUDENTS OF PEDAGOGICAL SPECIALTIES OF HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS by Liudmyla Nezhyva, Svitlana Palamar, Nataliia Semenii

“…The main criteria for selecting digital tools were: simple interface (so students can master its functionality faster); compliance to the State Standard for Primary Education; didactic value; accessibility (the age of pupils and the ability to comprehend tasks developed with the help of the proposed digital tools were taken into account); technical and methodological support (present on all proposed digital resources, which facilitates understanding of their interface); very important criterion is the wide functionality on a free basis; the ability to adapt in various modern conditions during offline and online learning.  …”

Fluorescent robust photoactuator via photo-crosslinking induced single-layered janus polyimide by Shuyu Xue, Zhipanxin Shi, Zaiyu Wang, Haozhe Tan, Feng Gao, Zicong Zhang, Ziyue Ye, Shifeng Nian, Ting Han, Jianbo Zhang, Zheng Zhao, Ben Zhong Tang, Qiuyu Zhang

“…Then the fluorescent robust photoactuators with single-layered janus structure were directly obtained via UV assisted photo-crosslinking of the films, exhibiting reversible response driven by a pronounced mismatch in expansion between the front and back sides of the films. Achieving selective, non-uniform spatial distribution within the PI films, rapid and reversible complex morphing of the actuators, along with the capabilities for encrypting, reading, and erasing fluorescent information—all through the use of a single UV light source—becomes straightforward. …”

Linking soil microbial genomic features to forest-to-pasture conversion in the Amazon by Andressa M. Venturini, Júlia B. Gontijo, Louis Berrios, Jorge L. Mazza Rodrigues, Kabir G. Peay, Siu M. Tsai

“…These abundant members of the microbial communities diverged across forests and pastures in terms of taxonomic and functional traits. Forest conversion favors organisms with specific genomic features — increased GC content, genome size, and gene number — selecting for microorganisms that can thrive under altered conditions. …”

Molecular organization of the nanoscale surface structures of the dragonfly Hemianax papuensis wing epicuticle. by Elena P Ivanova, Song Ha Nguyen, Hayden K Webb, Jafar Hasan, Vi Khanh Truong, Robert N Lamb, Xiaofei Duan, Mark J Tobin, Peter J Mahon, Russell J Crawford

“…The molecular organization of the epicuticle (the outermost layer) of insect wings is vital in the formation of the nanoscale surface patterns that are responsible for bestowing remarkable functional properties. Using a combination of spectroscopic and chromatographic techniques, including Synchrotron-sourced Fourier-transform infrared microspectroscopy (FTIR), x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) depth profiling and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GCMS), we have identified the chemical components that constitute the nanoscale structures on the surface of the wings of the dragonfly, Hemianax papuensis. …”
