Author(s): Walter Benn Michaels / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2012

This article presents the problem of politics of di erence realized within the American educational system, with a special emphasis on higher education. This politics is according to the author based on putting in the center of all educational actions the idea of diversity, as well in creating academic institutions. This key idea becomes in the American context a special significance, regarding the fact that the American society is based on ideology that celebrates multiculturalism and diversity as such. This article presents also an important for the contemporary situation in the United States problem of combining cultural and ethnic diversity on the economical category of di erence between various classes. Furthermore, it seems to be more significant in the light of the economic crisis in recent years that affected also American education in the same extent.

"Detskí vojaci" na stránkach zahraničných učebníc dejepisu

Author(s): Adam Suchonski / Language(s): Slovak / Issue: 1/2009

Despite the two great wars in the 20th century the world is still harassed by many war conflicts, mainly of regional character. In these conflicts, children soldiers are often involved. Owing to this fact we should attempt to answer a question whether this issue is given due emphasis in history course-books and how the issue is presented. The author examined a selection of foreign course-books, which was possible due to a collection assembled by the Georg Eckert Institute in Braunschweig. A selective analysis of them provides evidence that their authors often concentrate on this interesting issue. Presentation of children soldiers in history course-books has a positive impact upon sensitising young people, the future citizens of the world, to the tragic fate of their peers. Nevertheless, the adults still give guns to the juveniles and make them kill other people. Now it depends on them whether the term ‘children soldiers' will be sent to history.

"PESCO - PM2 - ESDC" COULD E-LEARNING BRING CLOSER TOGETHER EU's SUCCESS STORIES?

Author(s): Ilias KATSAGOUNOS,Jochen Rehrl / Language(s): English / Issue: 14/2018

The publication of the EU Global Strategy in 2016, led to the development of several new instruments one of them, being the permanent structured cooperation (PESCO), that had already existed for a decade but was waiting for the right moment to be implemented. PESCO can be considered the biggest project for European security to date, which brings together the EU Member States, the European Commission, the Council of the European Union and the European External Action Service, the main actors when it comes to the Union’s foreign and security policy. The authors argue that the Open PM2 methodology should be used to manage PESCO. The necessary education and training for project managers and team leaders should be offered by the European Security and Defence College (ESDC) and its 140 network partners, under the auspices of the Open PM2 Centre of Excellence by using the well-established and widely recognised e-learning management system of the number one CSDP training provider. The article provides concrete solutions and a detailed training needs analysis.

"Tıp Öykücülüğü" Üzerine

Author(s): Hasan Erbay / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: Special/2017

Medicine is a discipline with its own rules and manner of operation. Literature is one of the dozens of kinds of art. The common point of both fields is that they touch human stories from within life. Human stories in the field of health are about the processes in which a person lives, may live or is able to live. With the definition of medical story, it is narrative which are written by medical staffs, especially physicians. Medical narratives are fictitious narratives connected with medical realities, interpreting the health environment from the perspective of a physician or health care provider. Such is the primary concern of the works in the literary concerns. The medical narratiation is a field with a limited number of examples in both Turkish literature and world literature. Due to the diversity of medical education models in recent years, there is a growing interest in the relationship of medicine with literature and social sciences. Both in terms of medical education and in the context of literary and medical literacy, “Medical Narratiation” as a product of “quest of beauty” is a new and distinctive area in Turkish literature.

(Nie)moce kształcenia historycznego w Polsce. Głos w dyskusji

Author(s): Arnold Klonczynski / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 3/2015

There is an ongoing discussion on the crisis of humanistic education at universities. The causes of this phenomenon are considered to be the Bologna system introduced several years ago, the low qualifications of candidates, the introduction of the educational effects described by the National Qualifications Frameworks as well as the system of financing higher education institutions. One should remember in this discussion about the arguments for the maintenance of the Bologna system, which gives an opportunity to extend the offers of universities and to modify them. The academic community protests against the attempt to surrender the education to the discipline of the labour market. The commercialization of education is clearly visible in the presently used dehumanised terminology, in which universities ‘render educational services’ and education has become a service (production). The proposed solutions, e.g. the establishment of so-called ‘flagship universities’, may divide the academic community and lead to the crisis that will overshadow the present one.

(Nie)przygotowani. Metafora szkoły w polskiej poezji współczesnej

Author(s): Kamila Czaja / Language(s): Polish / Publication Year: 2018

The dissertation focuses on the – underrepresented in the state of research – subject of metaphor of school in the contemporary Polish poetry. The inspirations drawn from the works on the subject of the cognitive metaphor (Lakoff and Johnson) and the development of this theory on the poetic matter (Lakoff and Turner), from the papers written in the field of anthropology of education, from the partial analyses of the works by poets using the school scenes and terminology and, at last, from philosophical, psychological, pedagogical and sociological studies on mutual connections between education and non-school world allow to see the multifaceted application of the large metaphor LIFE IS A SCHOOL in the poetry. To show this large-scale subject (both in the aspect of the time-frame and poetic diction or genre) in a systematic way, the thesis consists of two parts, which are the result of two complementary approaches. The first part of the dissertation, Stages, is dedicated to the metaphor of school existing in the Polish poetry of two different periods – the years 1945–1989 (the escape from politics into the universal metaphors of school versus the use of school language as the way to beat the Polish People’s Republic system at its own game) and the new Polish poetry (the last works by the Old Masters, the transformation of the anti-system poetry after 1989, the poems forerunningthe latest poetic strategy, the anti-school statements by the authors who emerged after 1989 and their inclination to use the metaphor of school). This chronological conceptualization of the subject allows to present the intergenerational similarities and differences in including the school scenes, characters, objects and terms in the poetry, but at the same time it shows that the metaphor of school is formed partly under the influence of external (historical, political, social) factors, so this figure can be used not only as the universal large metaphor, but also as the instrument of verbalization of the experiences and changes associated with the specific events.The second part of the thesis, Topics, serves as the examination of those elements of school reality that build the metaphors connected with education. The school accessories, the educational institutions and stages, the teachers and the students, the timetable (lessons, tutoring, truancy, summer breaks), as well as the methods of evaluation of the educational performance appear in the contemporary Polish poetry in various forms and turn out to be the way to verbalize a wide range of existential experiences.The timelessness of school as the large metaphor of life and the specific strategies of metaphorization that change with time both contribute to versatility of this kind of poetic practices – the practices that are able to express different aspects of life metaphorically by the means connected with school. Love and death, past, present and future, self-recognition and the knowledge of the Other become more accessible and understandable when they are presented as the elements of “education” – even if the findings drawn from those “lessons”on the human condition can be really disheartening.

(Nie)zdolność gimnazjalistów do owocnego przyjęcia bierzmowania

Author(s): Janusz Mastalski / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 24/2017

The author of the article answers the question: What do we mean by one’s inability to receive fruitfully the sacrament of Confirmation? It is a lack of the conditions necessary to multiply graces associated with a particular sacrament. It is a kind of resistance to the use of all the gifts that are connected with the reception of the sacrament. This inability causes one to become a person who wastes the power given by the Lord. The author then discusses the reasons for this inability and simultaneously shows the factors which can enhance a human being’s fruitful reception of the sacraments, especially of the sacrament of Confirmation. Among the factors of inability, the author includes: netoholism, phonoholism (addiction to the internet and the cell phone), defamilization (the undoing of the family), “irresponsibilism”, epidermal (superficial) religiosity, psychocide and spiritocide (the killing of the psyche and the spirit), intrusiveness of global trends and the lack of pastoral creativity for today’s youth. The author also reveals factors which can promote the ability of teenagers to make the sacrament of Confirmation effectively: the multiplicity of methods of evangelization, modern affirmation of integral development, “plasticity” of personality, the desire for community resulting from development, the longing for the sacred and the search for a way to live.

(Self) Evaluation of Knowledge in Students’ Population in Higher Education in Macedonia

Author(s): Lupco Kevereski / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2017

Students’ assessment, in general, observed through a socio-historical prism, has always beentreatedas an extremely sensitive, current, significant, indicative and continuously present phenomenon. In that respect, what is especially relevant is that for a very long time docimological procedures and their effects have been focused on following only the primary and secondary schools’ student population and they were expected to be an integral part of the teachers’ professional practice. But, when the first book on evaluation in higher education appeared in the UK some 30 years ago, there were some fierce reactions to it. Thus, Hounsell (2003) points out that this topic has become so controversial, frightening and even offensive for many university professors. However, today it is considered that a good practitioner is the one who reviews his own practice and who evaluates the teaching process from the learners’ perspective (Brown, Fry & Marshall, 2003). Therefore, the underlying motivation for conducting this research was the fundamental issue of students’ self-evaluation of their achievements.The main objective of this study is to determine whether there is compatibility of the students’ self-assessment of their achievements with the professors’ evaluation of students’ achievements. To that end, we applied a transparent procedure for collecting information involving a self-evaluation sheet and an interview technique in the context of the following university courses: general psychology, developmental psychology and social psychology. The preliminary results point to a high percentage of correspondence betweenthe students and professor’s evaluation. The expected outcome of this research is to promote this type of evaluation approach and to turn it into a common practice in higher education as it can contribute greatly to amplifying the quality of students’ self-assessment on the one hand, and the teachers’ interest in bettering the existing modes of students’ evaluation on the other hand.

100 godina Franjevačke teologije u Sarajevu 1909.-2009.

Author(s): / Language(s): Bosnian,Croatian / Publication Year: 2012

Franjevačka teologija je u povodu stotinu godina svoga postojanja i djelovanja u Sarajevu (1909-2009) organizirala znanstveni skup i proslavu pod naslovom 100 godina Franjevačke teologije u Sarajevu: 1909.-2009. Znanstveni skup je održan 6. i 7. studenog 2009. u amfiteatru Franjevačke teologije, a 8. studenog – na dan blaženog Ivana Duns Škota, zaštitnika naše Teologije – održana je proslava tako što je svećeničkom euharistijskom slavlju predsjedao provincijal Bosne Srebrene fra Lovro Gavran. Za vrijeme euharistijskog slavlja izvedena je Missa Bosniensis Andrije Pavliča: Bosanska misa posvećena sv. Franji Asiškom, svim nesretnima, ispaćenima i izgubljenima ovoga svijeta, te bosanskim franjevcima i zboru Pontanima, koji je izveo misu. Zbor Pontanima je osnovao profesor naše Teologije fra Ivo Marković. Dirigirao je skladatelj Bosanske mise Andrija Pavlič (inače je dirigent zbora Pontanima Josip Katavić). Sudjelovali su Amila Bakšić, sopran; Zana Staniškovska, alt; Jasmin Bašić, tenor; Ivica Šarić, bas; i Dario Vučić, orgulje. Pokrovitelj Znanstvenog skupa i proslave je bio Željko Komšić, predsjedavajući Predsjedništva BiH. Koji je smisao Franjevačke teologije i uopće koji je smisao franjevačke škole mišljenja od srednjeg vijeka pa do danas? Evo kratkog odgovora. Franjevci, koji su bili nadareni za filozofsko i teološko mišljenje, nastojali su veličanstvenu viziju Franje Asiškog filozofski i teološko razraditi. Vizija Franje Asiškog, koja se temelji na Isusovu evanđelju, naglašava bratstvo i sestrinstvo svih ljudi, ne samo svih ljudi, nego i svih bića, to jest svih Božjih stvorenja u svemiru. Sva bića u svemiru su braća i sestre po stvorenosti. Jednakost među bićima uključuje i razliku među bićima, jer je svako biće originalno. I samo različita bića mogu biti u jedinstvu. Tom vizijom i njezinim prakticiranjem u svom životu Franjo Asiški je ponudio alternativu svijetu mržnje i nasilja, u kojem i danas živimo. To je on rekao svojom poznatom rečenicom koja glasi: “Exivi de saeculo” - “Izašao sam iz svijeta nasilja.” Izašao je iz svijeta nasilja i počeo osnivati svijet mira. Zadaća svih odgovornih bića jest izlazak iz svijeta nasilja i uspostavljanje svijeta mira, slobode i ljubavi. Zamislimo svijet bez nasilja i zamislimo svijet u kojem nasilje više neće biti moguće. Koliko su veliki franjevački mislioci tu viziju uspješno razradili i koliko su franjevci Bosne Srebrene, koji su živjeli i djelovali na Franjevačkoj teologiji, to mišlju i djelom svjedočili, to jest otjelotvorili, neka prosude drugi. U radovima sa znanstvenog skupa, koji se ovdje objavljuju, autori su obrađivali važne teme iz različitih perspektiva, pri čemu se moglo uvidjeti da je do Istine moguće doći samo dijalogom različitih perspektiva. Dijalogom uviđamo da je Istina jedna i da nas Istina sve nadilazi i povezuje u jednu zajednicu, ne samo nas, nego i cijelo čovječanstvo. Karl Jaspers je rekao: Istina je ono što nas povezuje (Wahrheit ist, was uns verbindet).

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of hand dimension on handgrip strength in adolescents aged 13-14 years who do or not play sports. A total of 56 adolescents (28 athletes and 28 non-athletes) aged between 13-14 years volunteered to participate in this study. Body length (cm), body weight (kg), body mass index (kg / m2), handgrip strength and hand dimension were measured. Hand dimension, lenght and handgrip measurements were taken from the dominant hand of the volunteers SPSS v.24 program was used to evaluate the normality distributions of the data, the level of difference between the groups and the relation between them. As a result of this study, it was found that the handgrip strengths of the athletes were significantly higher than the non-athletes (p <0,01). However, there were no significant differences between the hand dimensions of the athletes compared to the non-athletes. When the relationship between the hand dimension and the strenght parameters is examined in adolescents, it is seen that as the hand length, the hand area and the hand circumference increase, strenght values also increase. There was a correlation between hand dimensions and handgrip strength values (p <0.001).
