THE ACTIVITY OF PREFIXAL UNITS IN THE TERMINOLOGICAL SYSTEM OF THE UZBEK LANGUAGE
The article examines the activity of prefixal units in the terminological system of modern Uzbek. Prefixation, marginal in the general lexicon of an agglutinative and suffixing language, is disproportionately frequent in terminology, and the reason lies in the properties that terminology requires of its units: systematicity, transparency, brevity and international recognisability. The study describes the distribution of prefixal formatives across four terminological domains — medicine, technology and information technology, economics, and law and administration — and shows that each domain is associated with a characteristic set of formatives, such as giper- and gipo- in medicine, avto-, elektro- and kiber- in technology, makro- and mikro- in economics, and anti- and de- in law and administration. It then examines the term-forming advantages of prefixation, namely its capacity to build regular oppositional pairs and to produce compact equivalents of analytic descriptions, and the normative problems it creates, principally orthographic variation and the competition between a prefixal term and its native analytic synonym.

THE PLACE OF PREFIXATION IN THE WORD-FORMATION SYSTEM OF THE UZBEK LANGUAGE
Uzbek belongs to the most consistently suffixing group of the world’s languages, yet its modern lexicon contains a stable and codified layer of units built with word-initial derivational formatives. The article determines the position occupied by this layer within the general architecture of Uzbek word formation. It is argued that prefixation is not a derivational type on a par with affixation and compounding but a subtype of affixal derivation which is peripheral in quantitative, genetic and structural terms while remaining functionally non-redundant. A set of five criteria — free-word status, semantic bleaching, independent stress, codified solid spelling, and attachment to inherited Turkic bases — is proposed for delimiting prefixes from adjacent categories, and its application yields a gradient with three zones: prototypical prefixes, prefixoids and combining forms. The study further shows that the prefixal slot is strictly root-adjacent and non-recursive, that prefixation feeds suffixation but never the reverse, and that the resulting template has been integrated into the inherited agglutinative structure without disturbing it. The native reduplicative intensifier of the type qip-qizil, sap-sariq is analysed as a form-building rather than word-forming device and is accordingly excluded from the prefixal inventory. Consequences for orthographic codification are drawn.

THE ROLE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN PREPARING TELEVISION NEWS TEXTS
The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the way television newsrooms collect, process, verify, write, edit, and distribute information. This article examines the role of AI in preparing television news texts, with particular attention to newsgathering, transcription, translation, information processing, headline generation, preliminary drafting, personalization, and editorial support. The study applies a qualitative analytical approach based on recent journalism research, professional reports, and the principles of responsible AI use in journalism. The analysis shows that AI can reduce routine workload and accelerate the preparation of news materials, but it cannot replace the journalist’s responsibility for verification, source evaluation, context, ethical judgment, and editorial decision-making. Recent evidence indicates that journalists increasingly use AI for transcription, translation, grammar checking, research, and parts of article production, while audiences remain considerably more comfortable with human-led journalism supported by AI than with fully automated news. The article proposes a human-centered workflow in which AI performs assistive and technical functions while the journalist remains responsible for the final text and its factual, ethical, and editorial quality.

METHODOLOGY FOR TRAINING DRONE OPERATORS
The exponential growth of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) across industrial, agricultural, and security sectors has outpaced the development of standardized educational systems for drone operators. While modern hardware exhibits unprecedented levels of automation, the role of the human operator remains paramount, transitioning from active manual flight manipulation to systemic supervisory control and mission management. Statistical telemetry demonstrates that a substantial majority of operational failures are rooted in human error, lack of situational awareness, or poor cognitive load management under crisis conditions. This paper introduces a comprehensive, multi-tiered pedagogical methodology designed to cultivate highly resilient, competent, and multi-capable UAV operators. The framework seamlessly integrates deep theoretical aeronautical sciences, advanced high-fidelity flight simulation, psychological stress inoculation conditioning, and empirical live-flight operational training under complex environmental interferences. By shifting from a simple flight-hour accumulation model to a rigorous, multi-dimensional competency-driven metric system, this approach significantly minimizes physical risk, lowers structural hardware maintenance costs, and maximizes operational mission safety. The pedagogical strategies detailed herein provide a replicable roadmap for civil, educational, and commercial aviation academies targeting zero-accident operational efficiency.

BUSINESS MODELS FOR SUSTAINABLE HERITAGE TOURISM: GENERATING REVENUE WITHOUT DAMAGING ARCHAEOLOGICAL VALUE
Sustainable heritage tourism has become an important field for both business administration and archaeology because archaeological sites can generate economic value while preserving cultural identity. This article examines business models that can support archaeological heritage tourism without damaging archaeological value. The study focuses on revenue diversification, stakeholder cooperation, community participation, visitor management, digital innovation, and evidence-based decision-making. The article uses Afrasiab Museum and Archaeological Site in Samarkand, Uzbekistan, as a case study because it combines high archaeological significance with strong tourism potential. UNESCO identifies ancient Afrasiab as part of the historic city of Samarkand, which developed as a major cultural crossroads and is preserved as an archaeological reserve (UNESCO World Heritage Centre, n.d.-a). The article argues that archaeological sites should not depend only on ticket sales but should develop a hybrid sustainable business model that includes guided tours, museum shops, educational programs, digital experiences, public-private partnerships, and community-based tourism services. The proposed model aims to generate revenue, improve visitor experience, support local communities, and protect archaeological resources for future generations.

TEENAGE PREGNANCY AND SCHOOL ATTRITION: AN ASSESSMENT OF ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE AMONG GIRL-CHILD EDUCATION IN SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN TARABA STATE
Teenage pregnancy remains a significant barrier to the educational advancement of the girl-child in Sub-Saharan Africa. In Taraba State, Nigeria, prevailing socio-cultural and economic conditions create a context in which adolescent pregnancy frequently coincides with critical stages of secondary education, thereby posing serious threats to academic progression and completion. This study employed a descriptive survey research design, sampling 600 female students from selected public and private secondary schools across urban and rural areas of Taraba State. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using mean scores and standard deviations, with a decision benchmark of 2.50. The findings revealed a high prevalence of teenage pregnancy, with 36.3% of respondents reporting prior pregnancy experience. Most cases occurred among students aged 17–19, contributing to over-aged schooling and academic stagnation. Key determinants identified include lack of parental guidance, exposure to media and early marriage. Hypothesis testing showed that teenage pregnancy significantly affects academic performance and is strongly associated with school dropout. Additionally, affected students experience stigma, low self-esteem, and emotional distress, although family support serves as a mitigating factor. The study concludes that teenage pregnancy in Taraba State is a multifaceted problem that undermines educational attainment and perpetuates socio-economic inequality. It recommends a multi-sectoral approach involving comprehensive sexuality education, school-based counseling services, parental engagement, and government-led economic support initiatives.
