        Sculptify 15m

        While we all know health is one of the most important factors in our life, most of us get caugh in the agitated day-to-day routine, where we barely have time to think about what we are doing. Even if we might do some steps towards fixing some of our alimentary habits, the very first steps in the world of diet and fitness are quite intimidating, everyone has a strong opinion and claims only their method is efficient, even tho it might be the exact opposite of what the person right before them said, so even if we started enthusiastic, willing to learn new things in order to fix our lives, we might just end up feeling disoriented and frustrated.

        I want to create a tool that will make implementing healthy habits as easy and convinient as possible, while also giving bits of education to the user to empower him with the necessary knowledge for a permanent change in the way he views this subject.

        The app will create automatically a training program and a meal plan customized to the needs of the user, giving him all the possibilities he needs but not overwhelming him with to many decisions.
        He will be able to see all the predefined meal plans and training programms to see if they align with what he was looking for, and once he has decided he is ready to give it a go, he can either choose from one of the predefined plans, contact a professional, to guide him, or create a personalized plan, as the app is also tailored towards individuals who already have a routine but want an app that will help them save some time on the planning, and visualize everything more clearly.

        METACOGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIES: APPLICATIONS FOR PRIMARY EDUCATION 15m

        Given the informational age we live in, learning cannot be restricted solely to the accumulation of knowledge and its mechanical application in various situations. To become autonomous and competent individuals, it is crucial to understand our own thinking processes and to be aware of how we learn and adapt our strategies based on requirements, historical context, and diverse challenges.

        Training the metacognitive competence of primary school students 15m

        An important field of research in recent years is metacognition, representing only a big word that actually refers to something that most of us do every day without even noticing: thinking about our own thoughts. However, metacognition means not only „thinking ”, but also monitoring one's learning and, most importantly, changing the approach to performing tasks through monitoring. Metacognition is an essential component that teachers should develop in themselves and in their students.

        Abstract
        Over time, the needs and desires of students are in a constant state of change. New generations of children have direct exposure to technologies, growing and developing alongside them. Due to this, it is necessary to adapt our teaching style to their way of assimilating information. The need to adapt to a changing approach to subjects, especially in the nature of gaming, has motivated us to present solutions for the successful implementation of the educational plan in the following work. In the content of this paper, we will explore a set of video games with the aim of observing their impact on the moral behavior of the subjects.

        Keywords: Alpha generation, video games, learning through play, education and technology.

        New in present article: a generalization of an above formula to derivatives of any order, a divisibility property of the terms of these numerators, extension to the complex framework, a conjecture on the derivative of a ratio of power series and another.
        I hope all the information is understandable.

        Learning based on project-a new efficient teaching method mi Step by step Kindergartens 15m

        In this paper we want to present an experience of success in our professional activity.
        It's about METHOD PROJECTS - one of the main methods of teaching - learning - evaluation of alternative educational STEP BY STEP, we promote with our kindergarten children.
        In the first part of the paper I presented a brief history of the method projects, seen as a 'global, integrated with a strong interdisciplinary character, the argument being that each stage of development is closely linked to the previous ones and each child has a rhythm and individual development. Multiple positive influences also come from different directions.
        The ingenuity of this method is the ability of the teacher and harmoniously combine different learning styles of children to emphasize interest, motivation and success.
        For example I proposed a project type adventure theme ,, WERE ONCE DINOSAURS
        Work steps are shown, from arguments, gathering information, purpose, objectives, identification of partners, the areas curricular activities planning.
        Learning during an adventure is sustainable because feelings are deep, acquisitions are made in a pleasant and efficient way.
        Highly recommend this kind of activities that will pull the monotony of teaching, will broaden the action environment and factors involved, and certainly will guarantee success , so important for young children.
        In our teaching experience we successfully accomplished different types of projects with obvious developmental aims in teaching pre-school children.
        In this way we accessed different topic based projects-in accordance to the Step by step educational alternative methodology –an example closer to student’s understanding .Also project like-solving problems or Adventure are present in our classroom activities with the children.
        Following we are going to introduce such a project we had together with the children in the upper pre-school group .It is about an adventure type project called:ONCE UPON A TIME THERE WERE DINOSAURUS

        THE PLEA FOR LEARNING AND TEACHING DIFFERENTLY 15m

        Learning differently, teaching differently and thinking differently are important concepts nowdays.
        In a digital world people have to think differently.
        School success plays an important role in parents’ concerns. To learn means to live with others or to collaborate. To learn means to discover or to do something together. To learn means to solve a problem or to have an adventure. To learn with mind or with heart is another way of learning. Learning is a matter of a well- prepared mind.
        Teaching means the art of ,,giving birth to spirits.” For a child to realise success, he needs to be complimented. Empowering a child means encouraging him to make choices.
        And another important thing is to perceive our emotions as our friends.

        The importance of reading in children’s lives 15m

        Abstract

        This study aims to explore the importance of reading in the lives of children. In a world dominated by technology, for many children, reading is no longer a priority. During leisure time, children often prefer television, phones, the internet, and social media, but these will never replace the moral, cultural, and educational value of a book. For this reason, educators should collaborate with parents to address this situation.

        Parents should start reading to their children from the time they are in the mother's womb. The first books in a child's life are usually brightly colored and accompanied by various sounds or songs that stimulate attention. Reading is a way for parents to spend more time with their children, playing an important role in the child's intellectual and emotional development, as well as in acquiring communication and interaction skills with others.

        Parents are the ones who should choose the books that can be read to children, and these choices should be made carefully. To assist parents in making the right selections, publishers, kindergartens, and schools provide recommendations for various books suitable for the child's age.

        Abstract
        In this article I have presented a research based on real data on the link between job satisfaction and organizational performance.
        In the first part I presented the factors that contribute to staff satisfaction and the success of company.
        The measured variable of satisfaction was based on 4 dimensions: intrinsic, extrinsic factors, working conditions and relations between employees.
        I applied a questionnaire to a number of 46 employed students from the economic sciences study programs both at the license and master levels.
        Based on the results of the questionnaire, I developed a multifactorial regression model in which the dependent variable of job satisfaction and the independent variables are the intrinsic and extrinsic factors of motivation, working conditions, relationships between employees.
        For the research we chose the survey method using the questionnaire as a data collection tool. For statistical data processing and analysis we used Data Analysis.
        Research among employed students has shown that there is a strong link between motivation, job satisfaction and employee performance.

        The literary cabaret and its role in promoting Dadaism 15m

        The basic meaning of the term cabaret is that of a party place or bar. On the other hand, the literary cabaret refers to a space quite similar to a regular cabaret, with differences in the performances presented. A comparison can also be made here between a literary cabaret and a literary café. In a literary cabaret, literary moments are presented, as well as musical and dance performances, whereas in a literary café the focus is almost exclusively on literature, sometimes intertwined with other areas such as politics or religion.

        We are in the year 2023, the third millennium. It already sounds very promising, of great futuristic scope, where technology and people are at a much too high level, where the requirements for personal development as well as expectations are a real challenging force. We admit that the success of a child in school depends on the didactic force, on the effectiveness of the teacher to be a good facilitator for his student. The purpose of this article is to bring to the reader's attention the importance of self-efficacy implemented by the teaching staff, to the student, in terms of shaping a healthy mind, capable of progressing and succeeding.

        Textul ne prezinta diferitele moduri de a privi ezoterismul ca mod de gandire in filosofia occidentala. Ezoterismul are cateva caracteristici recognoscibile si repetabile in istoria umanitatii pentru ca Omul a fost mereu ezoteric.Omul a dorit mereu sa stie modul de raportare la divinitate, de unde vine si incotro se indreapta.Din punct de vedere socio-politic nimic nu este ceea ce pare, umanitatea pare guvernata de societati secrete care trag niste sfori.In acest context fiinta umana are nevoie de repere, de chei de descifrare a realitatii.

        Perfectibility, perfection, perfectionism – from the tangible to the intangible. A philosophical approach. 15m

        Perfectibility, perfection, and perfectionism are three distinct concepts in philosophy that are often analyzed in relation to human development, morality and concepts of the good. Perfectibility reflects the ability to progress, perfection is the ideal state free from defect and perfectionism represents the attitude or perspective of rigorously pursuing this perfection. Starting from perspectives that have given special importance to the achievement of perfection or high standards in various areas of human life, in this paper we will argue that human perfection should be based on perfectibility, without necessarily seeking perfection, which is inaccessible to the human individual. Thus, man could enjoy the road to personal improvement without falling into the trap of unrealistic perfectionism.

        Arheologia Cunoașterii 15m

        This text explores the implications of Michel Foucault's philosophy of power, focusing on the relationship between power and society and the various forms power can take. Foucault's perspective on power is rooted in the idea that power is not centralized but dispersed throughout society, operating through social and institutional relations. He views power as a neutral force that can have moral consequences, shaping social reality through the production of knowledge, discourse, and practices.
        Foucault's work challenges traditional notions of power and invites us to critically examine how power operates in various contexts and how it shapes our understanding of reality.

        The text proposes a comprehensive analysis of pragmatics, highlighting its concerns regarding the meaning and use of language in the context of human communication. From pioneers like Charles S. Pierce and Charles Morris, who defined pragmatics, to its ongoing development in the face of technological and communication changes, the text covers various aspects of this field. Key contributions of figures such as Grice, Austin, Searle, Levinson, and van Dijk are explored, focusing on conversational implicatures, the theory of illocutionary acts, and discourse analysis. It also addresses various subdomains, including business pragmatics and political pragmatics, emphasizing the applicability and evolution of pragmatics in different contexts. The text underscores the importance of context, intention, and interpretation in understanding the meaning of words, concluding that pragmatics is fundamental in exploring language as a mode of action in complex human communication.

        Libertarianismul este o clasă de convingeri în filosofia politică. Libertarienii văd libertatea individuală ca fiind cea mai înaltă valoare politică și înțeleg constrângerea ca fiind opusul acestei libertăți. Liberalismul este adesea văzut în primul rând ca o filozofie a libertății economice și caută să definească și să justifice puterile legitime ale guvernării în termenii anumitor drepturi individuale naturale sau date de Dumnezeu. Aceste drepturi includ dreptul la viață, libertate, proprietate privată, libertatea de exprimare și de asociere, libertatea de cult, guvernare prin consimțământ, egalitate în fața legii și autonomie morală.

        Navigating the Nexus of Law and Morality: Forging Paths to a Just Future 15m

        Law and morality, distinct concepts, occasionally find themselves in a complex relationship. Morality often aligns with personal principles, ethics, and individual values, whereas law constitutes a set of rules and norms established by society to maintain order and safety. Yet, clashes between personal values and imposed laws pose a significant challenge.
        The relationship between morality, ethics, and law is multifaceted. While there are points of tangential similarity, differences persist. Morality often aligns with a code of conduct based on principles encompassing notions of good and evil. Ethics converges on distinguishing between right and wrong, contributing to an improved moral perspective. Ultimately, law is reduced to a system of rules and regulations applied by the state, aiding in maintaining moral standards.

        The text discusses Neoplatonism, a Greek philosophical movement that emerged in the second century and lasted until 529. Neoplatonism views the world as governed by meaning, requiring elevated thinking to comprehend it. It focuses on finding a unique principle, the One, which explains the nature of the intelligible. Plotinus, influenced by Plato, introduces innovations and fundamental changes compared to other philosophers like Aristotle and the Stoics.

        Neoplatonism transcends syncretism, integrating influences into a unique vision characterized by mysticism and ecstasy. The significant differences between Neoplatonism and Christian or Gnostic thought are highlighted, emphasizing Plotinus' innovative perspective on the intelligible and sensible worlds.

        Humanity's new habitat: the Infosphere and its implications for knowledge dynamics 15m

        The text focuses on Luciano Floridi's concept of the 'infosphere', a digital reality that reshapes how we interact with and understand knowledge. It challenges the traditional role of humans as sole knowledge creators, with digitalization and data accumulation becoming central.
        This shift requires rethinking the creation, distribution, and access to knowledge since the line between physical and virtual realities blurs, leading to a complex informational environment. This change is not just about accessing information via the internet; it suggests our entire life experience is now mediated digitally.
        The text also touches on how this shift affects the nature of knowledge, which is becoming more data-driven. The concept of 'onlife' is introduced, indicating the intertwined nature of online and offline experiences in our daily lives. The conclusion emphasizes the need for critical engagement regarding the infosphere as a pivotal tool in the pursuit of holistic understanding and redefining how we perceive and engage with the boundless informational resources available.

        The purpose of the topic titled "The Transdisciplinarity of the Backtracking Method" is to investigate and highlight how this method can be applied in a transdisciplinary manner to solve problems and make contributions in various fields of study and research.
        By "the backtracking method," we refer to a problem-solving technique that involves the recursive exploration of possible solutions, with the ability to backtrack on previous decisions when encountering obstacles or when solutions seem unsatisfactory. This method is commonly used in computer-related fields such as artificial intelligence, but the aim of the paper is to demonstrate how it can be extended to address the challenges and issues specific to other domains.
        Through a transdisciplinary approach, the paper seeks to show that the backtracking method can serve as a versatile tool in solving complex and interconnected problems that go beyond the boundaries of a single research domain. The goal is to highlight the potential of this method to facilitate collaboration and knowledge exchange between different disciplines, thus contributing to the development of innovative solutions and a deeper understanding of transdisciplinary issues.
        In conclusion, the paper "The Transdisciplinarity of the Backtracking Method" focuses on exploring and promoting the application of the backtracking method in a transdisciplinary context with the aim of solving complex problems from different domains and advancing knowledge in these fields through interconnected and innovative approaches.

        Motivation of students in first-year: A Self-Determination Theory (STD) perspective 15m

        Abstract
        This study provides a succinct overview of the Self-Determination Theory (SDT), formulated in 1985 by Edward Deci and Richard Ryan. Their empirical inquiries have substantiated that we manifest self-motivation when our three fundamental psychological needs—autonomy, competence, and connection or relatedness—are adequately fulfilled. This study aspired to assess the degree of self-determination among first-year students pursuing the Social Assistance profile within the Faculty of Letters, by employing a questionnaire administered to 51 participants.
        The reliabilities of the questionnaire were satisfactory, and the research disclosed that, for the majority of students, the strongest predictors were autonomy, and relatedness than competences.

        Lagrange Interpolation Forumla and Chebyshev Polynomials 15m

        Usually interpretated as a logical game that one can easily stumble upon on the internet, finding the general rule of a given sequence of terms is quite subjective, merely a gambling in finding the specific rule the author was thinking about when assigning the values. Therefore, even though one finds a "rule" that might apply for the given terms, if it results in a different answer than what was intended, then the solution is considered to be wrong, which is rather unfair. And there are infinitely such rules that could be found.

        Thus, I will present the method that allows us to find such a "rule", as well as the role it plays in more advanced problems of Algebra and Number Theory. This method is called " The Lagrange Interpolation Formula", which, paired with Chebyshev's polynomials, offer unique solutions to less-known results that oftenly open pathways to easier alternatives for seemingly unapproachable olympiad problems.

        Positive matrices are, obviously, a particular category of matrices; one that might be overlooked by the ordinary human, but clearly aren't neglected by the specialists, and are nowhere close to becoming ramshackled. The topic of positive matrices is studied in such a depth that I would feel like a liar to say that my work covers positive matrices in the slightest; but, with baby steps, I believe that we should pay more attention to them, and this is the perfect introductory material.

        Future Books 15m

        „Future Books” is a project that aims to improve the number of the readers in the world. The principal idea is to make books cheaper and easier to claim them, by using the holograms. In this way we prevent not just the deforestation, but the poluate air to invadate the world, because trees have an important job in protecting our air, so our lives. Hologram-books will not just stop the deforestation, but they won’t affect our eyes, like E-books do and will be so much easier to read and keep them safe from antiquation and dusty.

        #Cicero_PRo_XGEN 15m

        The #Cicero_PRo_XGEN paper focuses on the connection between Cicero and media education, between teoretic knowledge and the adaptation to our century’s context characterised by an unstructured informational „bombardment”, passing through Romanian literature, stopping at the actual political context (the speech of Erdogan). The logic of the ciceronian speech implemented into a world that exposed to fakes and contemporan manipulation can constitute an exercise for a much more „attractive” preparation of young students, getting them used to dealing with nowadays’ extremly fluid world problems. It’s clear and unforced the proximity of the world and ciceronian education and the contemporary world which should give much more attention to the binomial „ratio-oratio”.

        Keywords: Cicero, speech, media education, Erdogan, Alexandru Lăpușneanu, ratio, oratio, manipulation

        Teenagers. Identity and language. 15m

        The problematic of neologisms in general and of anglicisms in particular is not only a concern of the specialized linguistic research, but also of the users. Young people see from another perspective this perpetual change of the Romanian language, which affects and reflects society from several points of view. In other words, the code is based on their need for belonging, on the desire to fully manifest their identity and on the new values they promote: moral, social and cultural.
        Keywords: identity, change, values, belonging, needs and code.

        Incursiuni în dimensiunile literare ale visului 15m

        In the complex universe of human thoughts and emotions, the dream takes shape as a subtle bridge between man and divinity, between heart and reason, and between reality and imagination.
        One of the oldest and most fascinating dream forms in literature is that of the premonitory dream, a theme rooted in the theocentric dimension of art. For instance, we have the biblical scene of Abraham and Sarah. The dream can also be found in the period of romanticism, in Mihai Eminescu's "Poor Dionis", but also in the current of surrealism, where it takes strange forms, propelling art to another level.

        Hermeticism and lyric geometrisation in the artistic vision of Constantin Brâncuși and Ion Barbu 15m

        Abstract
        Amidst the various forms of modernity and artistic movements, a new direction emerges – one that's deeply internalized and meaningful: the geometric essentialization in the artistic vision of Brâncuși and Barbu, two avatars of Hermes, to whom the hidden truths of the world are fully revealed.
        Both modern artists share a common aesthetic vision to artistically express the immutable essence of reality, stripped of its external forms. Brancuși's sculpted lines and Barbu's lyrical geometry both express the same theme, reflecting the silent song of life.
        The present work demonstrates the convergence of art by reducing reality to its essence.

        Keywords: Modernism, Essentialisation, Abstraction, Aesthetic Revolution, Artistic Expression

        Biodiversitatea descrie în mod colectiv miliardele de organisme vii unice care trăiesc pe Pământ, precum și interacțiunea dintre ele.
        Unele dintre cele mai importante tipuri sunt biodiversitatea vegetală și animală.
        Avem nevoie de biodiversitate pentru că întreține solul, purifică aerul, reglează clima, oferă hrană.
        Natura ar putea rezolva probleme viitoare, cu care știm deja că ne vom confrunta. Cunoașterea științifică crește și evoluează.
        De exemplu, natura a ajutat și continuă să ajute cu progrese medicale importante. Există plante medicinale de o putere extraordinară în lume.
