Critical thinking (CT) is an important 21st-century skill which enables individuals to actively use their knowledge and problem-solving skills overcome life challenges. Educators, employers, policymakers focus on CT foster scientific in education. In many countries, the development of has become a major component training offered students based assumption that every student learns these same ma...

This paper deals with the selection of the profiles of weights to be used in cross-efficiency evaluations. In an attempt to prevent unrealistic weighting schemes, one of the issues of main interest that we address here is that of the zero weights, since their use implies that some of the variables considered are excluded from the assessments to be made. In the calculation of cross-efficiency sc...

Using DNA microarrays the comparative analysis of a gene expression profiles is carried out in a liver and kidneys of pigs. The hypothesis of a cross hybridization of one probe with different cDNA sites of the same gene or different genes is checked up, and it is shown, that cross hybridization can be a source of essential errors at revealing of a key genes in organ-specific transcriptome. It i...

Analyzing the vortex-induced vibration of a slender marine structure withlength to diameter ratio up to 200 is the objective of this study. This slender is free to move in both in-line and cross flow directions and immersed completely in water. Three different types of shear currents pass on it and cause to vibrate slender in different forms. Nowadays, these vibrations are very important for de...

The purpose of this study was to document differences in perceived skating characteristics resulting from three unique cross sectional skate blade profiles. Sixteen (n=16) University level hockey players were used in this double blind study looking at the perceived performance differences of four different skate blade profiles. No significant differences were found between skate blade profiles,...
