Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a primary cause of dementia in the ageing population affecting more than 35 million people around the globe. Acquisition of information in everyday life requires memorization in complex three-dimensional environments. Emerging ICT (information and computer technology) applications based on virtual reality (VR) environments can lead to a behavior modification as they provide a photorealistic virtual environment (VE). This chapter provides a selective overview of the empirical evidence available along last five years on the use of virtual reality (VR) to promote everyday life skills and cognitive impairment mitigation of AD patients. Virtual reality allows us to identify and treat deficits in memory that are relevant to everyday life yet not detectable with list learning. Articles related to virtual reality have been divided in two categories according to their use: whether for assessment and diagnostic or rehabilitative purposes. Clinical implications were critically discussed. Suggestions for future research and practice will also be provided.

This article examines the transformation of the labor market under the influence of informatization of society. It is noted that in the conditions of globalization and informatization of the nowadays a post-industrial society has been formed, in which information is a determining factor of production. New opportunities and challenges of the labor market in the conditions of information society development are analyzed. The informatization of society changes the conditions, nature and forms of work. Extensive digitalization, the use of cloud technologies and artificial intelligence systems are displacing traditional forms of employment towards teleworking, which makes workers more mobile and able to optimize working hours. It is established that the spread of technology increases the efficiency of the recruitment and searching job processes. Informatization of society contributes to the creation of a digital labor market, which forms the demand and supply of information and computer technology workers. In the context of informatization of society, the labor market is characterized by an imbalance between supply and demand of labor due to structural changes in the economy. Among the challenges of the labor market are rising unemployment in the raw materials industries, robotics and automation of routine manual labor. The digitalization of the economy leads to the need to adjust government regulation of business and provide social guarantees for employees. It is noted that the informatization of society provides more benefits to the labor market than obstacles. Solving the problems it raises, promotes progress and economic development.

The determination of the student's single tuition fee grade at XYZ University still faces problems, one of which is the inconsistency of supporting variables which change each year based on the number of students and the level of student welfare. Determination of the class of student's single tuition fee based on the web that applies the backpropagation algorithm is designed to produce an adaptive decision-making system for changing variable determinants so that every year it is not necessary to adjust the weight in determining the student's single tuition fee group. In building a decision support system to determine the student's single tuition fee group, there are several stages including data collection, data processing, backpropagation implementation, evaluation and presentation of the model, and implementation of a web-based decision support system. During the evaluation and presentation of the model, several experiments were carried out by considering various parameters to get the best accuracy results. The accuracy of the best model produced in this study reached 86% with output in the form of a web-based decision support system that is ready to be managed by the Center for Information and Computer Technology (PUSTIKOM) of XYZ University for use by new students.

In today’s dynamic, rapidly evolving and changing world, there are a number of challenges facing various spheres of public life, in particular the educational process. Teachers find that nowadays a major problem in school education is the weak and declining motivation of students to learn. Teachers are looking for ways to increase students’ interest in the subject they teach. In the last 30 years, the only major development in foreign language teaching has been the introduction of information and computer technology in teaching. In this regard, the CLIL method can be said to be a means of overcoming the stagnation in the teaching of foreign languages and to increase students’ interest in both the topic studied and the language in which it is taught. This report reviews the history of the CLIL method, its theoretical foundations and applications. The legislative support of the method is indicated both by the educational policy of the European Union and by the foreign language curricula in Bulgaria. The main characteristics of the method, which make it an effective method for the development of skills in the 21st century, are also considered. The conclusions are based on twenty teaching practices, developed by the method in the Primary Stage of „Petko R. Slaveykov“ Secondary School, town of Varna. They illustrate its effectiveness, increased interest among students and lasting knowledge of the language and non-language subject. Opinions of parents and students and fellow teachers were analyzed.
