“…The French philosopher Bensaude-Vincent B. relates the promises of NBIC reports (2002)(2003) "to a hybrid genre in between propaganda, ideology and science", whose goal is to attract investors and sponsors. Bensaude-Vincent sees a positive consequence of this concept public presentation in the development of social discourse, which obliges social monitoring of innovation, which means that "scientists no longer work in their ivory tower and that the public has to be engaged in science" [16,20]. Thus, the French philosopher concludes, "technoscience", initiating the convergent process, turns the world into a laboratory where the awareness and social responsibility of each actor is the means of individual and collective survival.…”

Abstract: They analyzed the socio-anthropological essence of nano-, bio-, info-, cogno-(NBIC) convergence process and the concept of transhumanism. The general contours of the "ideal", transhuman, convergent-technological future are examined on the basis of the concept of "general eschatology", which made it possible to justify the presence of humanitarian threats and risks, their prolongation from the present to the future and dystopic deepening in the convergent process of "trans-transition". -"reformatting" of a person. The dominance of the managerial approach in the organization of science affects the process of scientific activity self-organization, transforms the natural convergence process of sciences and technologies, giving rise to moral, financial, and corporate deviations. Technological opportunities produced by the modern era testify to the multivariance of prognostic vision forms of the future, the relevance of the philosophical, methodological, humanitarian examination of "breakthrough technologies" to preserve humanity. Dystopic trends with the opportunity to be implemented in practice are the following ones: loss of individual uniqueness; fading of the moral principle; technological inequality and socio-stratification polarization; social manageability based on interference in human nature; consequences of total control over consciousness in the field of rights and freedoms. The eschatological approach reveals the essential difference between the concepts of "humanism" and "transhumanism" in terms of human values: the preservation of the human in a person or its overcoming through NBIC

“…Students correlate freedom / will with liberty and financial independence, thereby proving to themselves and their parents, to those around them that they, as persons, are able to solve any issues, including material ones, by themselves. The previously considered concept of "poverty" in the youth linguistic consciousness allowed researchers to draw a number of conclusions, one of which is "poverty implies an acute need for food" [16,22]. Perhaps this is why students have parties, hangouts, events of an entertaining nature, meetings for informal communication, where there are a minimum of costs and a maximum of impressions.…”

Abstract: This paper is devoted to the study of a student's linguistic personality from the standpoint of the theory of linguistic-cultural types. The relevance of the study is due to the actively developing anthropological linguistics field of the theory of linguocultural type, within the framework of which generalized recognizable personalities as representatives of a certain linguistic culture are considered. world (educational supplies, a kind of instant food, etc.), etc. The object under study is the conceptual characteristics and the resulting reactions to the stimulus word "student". The purpose of this work is to linguistically represent a student as a person, to describe the notional component of the typified personality concept based on associative attributes. The paper proposes to expand the conceptual space of a character type by means of the associations obtained and to consider the character type of "student" as a person who is beyond the bounds of a cliche. The character type of student is a vivid representative of the sociocultural group, embodying the educational values of society. According to our observations, the description of the linguocultural character type of student through the eyes of students themselves gives a more detailed representation of the substantive component of the concept. The study is based on the associative and semantic field "student" which includes linguistic units reflecting the lexical-semantic space of student life; associated with the mental, emotional, physical, material, intellectual condition of a student; denoting character traits representing specific concepts / specific objects of the material

“…Simultaneously, there is a need for teaching stipulated definitions, as this is one of the defining characteristics of mathematics, thus understanding stipulated definitions in order to develop mathematical literacy in students (Edwards, B. S., & Ward, 2004, Hillman, 2014. Research shows that there is great importance in using multiple representations of concepts, so teaching students both stipulated and extracted definitions would be effective teaching pedagogy (Alkhateeb, 2018). Furthermore, engaging students in the process of stipulating and extracting definitions, as having students make connections between different representations of objects helps them to develop mathematical literacy (Duval, 2006).…”

Previous research has established the importance of definitions in mathematics and have distinguished the difference between extracted and stipulated definitions. Much remains unknown, however, about the role definitions serve in developing students' disciplinary literacy. In this study, we analyze how definitions from four US Algebra 1 textbooks and Khan Academy define vocabulary in the context of quadratics. Results show that Khan Academy tends to use extracted definitions, where textbooks tend to use stipulated definitions. Implications from this study are that there is a need to teach students both stipulated and extracted definitions.
