“…This strategy has an element of self-protection. Similar to the self-protective strategies noted by participants and research (e.g., Ashcraft & Sevier, 2006;Bullough, 2015) in the previous chapter, this approach was an important contributor to Fenton and Fred's efficacy for navigating the intricacies of the female dominated schools in which they worked. It could also prove effective for other male primary teachers when having professional discussions and disagreements with their colleagues.…”

“…Stakeholder concerns have prompted numerous calls for increased male recruitment to, and retention in, the primary teaching profession (e.g., Carrington, et al, 2007;Francis & Skelton, 2005;Martin & Marsh, 2005). These calls have cited a variety of reasons why more men are required in primary schools, yet more recent research (Bullough, 2015;McGrath & Sinclair, 2013) concluded that more male primary teachers are required primarily for social reasons. McGrath and Sinclair argued that all children could benefit from having more male primary school teachers to act as role models and father figures.…”

“…Sari (2012) writes in her article that female teachers take on their gender role of "being a mother" in their teaching practice which can influence teaching both positively and negatively. On the other hand, male primary teachers can have a greater educational effect on students (Bullough, 2015). At the same time, having a female teacher improves girls' academic performance in math (Xu & Li, 2018).…”

One of the ways to improve the quality of math and natural science education is to develop the pedagogical community of STEM education. On the one hand, according to the forecasts, an increase in the number of students and teachers is expected by an average of 20 % in both Russia and worldwide. On the other hand, there is definitely some specificity in the pedagogical community as compared with any other labor collective, since the pedagogical community develops alongside with the student one. In this perspective, the age heterogeneity of the teaching staff is of particular relevance. Consequently, the key point in the management of math and natural science education is the analysis of the age structure of STEM educators. The following subjects are taken to conduct a further analysis of STEM education: mathematics, handicraft, physics, biology, and chemistry. Accordingly, the purpose of the article is to analyze and forecast the heterogeneous development of the age structure of STEM teachers. The authors of the article justify the necessity for changes in the personnel policy on the basis of the assessment of the capacity of the teaching staff of STEM education in schools of the European part of Russia. The leading research approach is the method of the normal and natural distribution of age groups in the structure of the STEM education pedagogical community. As a result of a study conducted in 569 schools of the European part of Russia in 2016-2018, the authors of the article have found out the following: the average age of STEM school teachers in the European part of Russia is 6.8 years higher than the average age of teachers in Russia; there is a significant shortage of STEM teachers aged under 35; the average rate of the teaching load of a STEM school teacher in an academic subject is 0.72, but the load is distributed very unevenly, math teachers having the highest teaching load. The theoretical significance of the research lies in its contribution to the development of scientific ideas concerning the age heterogeneity of STEM school teachers. The research results can be used in building development trajectories of STEM education teaching staff by implementing a series of managerial and organizational measures to achieve the normal state of the age structure of teachers.Keywords: STEM education, age heterogeneity of teachers, age structure of the pedagogical community, seniority of teachers, normal distribution of age groups

“…After few minutes of the scientific lesson, this should be stopped to restore the process of understanding [20], [21]. Human competence is defined as competition in which two or more people participate, where generally the winner will be only one or a few participants and others do not win [8], [22]. Some of us have excellent experiences with students' competition, while others think it is not pleasant [23], [24].…”

Teaching and learning are important factors in our life, so, increasing the happiness during class cause raising the ability of learning. This research focused on the evaluation of the learning process via classroom before and after applying the proposed method. One of the big challenge during classroom lesson, the students after a short period of time (about 10-15 minutes) at the beginning of the session, turn off their minds and remain absolutely out of understanding. Our goal is to revitalize the classroom environment so that you are always attentive to the lecture. The proposed approach aims to track and detect the emotional facial expression and transient from emotional facial expression to raise the happy expression in order to reach the classroom happiness. Image processing issue is an important part of this approach in which based on face recognition and tracking, then evaluates the students’ happiness according to the proposed mode that located in the classroom. This model is implemented from Raspberry Pi device, tracking camera and high definition screen. The implemented algorithm allows you to continue of face tracing and make rising of happiness as possible. Increasing happiness is an important factor in making students more attractive and more understanding for the classroom lecture. This approach is implemented to cover both software and hardware, so, it is acceptable to work in real time.
