"Pridodato u prevodu": nematerijalno kulturno nasleđe u prevođenju i primeni evropskih politikâ doživotnog obrazovanja u Republici Srbiji

Author(s): Ljubica Milosavljević,Miloš Milenković / Language(s): Serbian / Publication Year: 0

Polazeći od noseće pretpostavke istraživačkog programa antropologije javnih i praktičnih politika, prema kojoj zakoni, strategije, vizije i planovi nisu "čisti" pravno-politički akti proceduralnog karaktera, već da "kriju" neke specifične, izabrane ili neintencionalne, antropologiji tradicionalno zanimljive institucionalne izbore iz obilja nematerijalnog kulturnog nasleđa (poput preskripcije identiteta ili standarda normalnosti), iznosimo preliminarne rezultate istraživanja primene evropskih politika doživotnog obrazovanja u Republici Srbiji. Preliminarna analiza "prevođenja" odnosno specifične glokalne kontekstualizacije, recepcije i instrumentalizacije pomenutih politikâ pokazuje da je na snazi praksa prenošenja, pravne i proceduralne transplantacije bez prilagođavanja kontekstu u kojem politikâ treba da bude primenjena. U slučaju neprilagođene politike doživotnog obrazovanja, izostanak prilagođavanja neophodnog da lokalna verzija a) odgovara međunarodno usaglašenim ciljevima i da istovremeno b) zaživi u praksi, objašnjava se na primerima diskrepancije lokalnih pojmova radnog vremena, neformalnog obrazovanja, "odgovarajućeg" životnog doba za obrazovanje s jedne, i pojmova originalno ugrađenih u tu politiku, s druge strane.

1898. 25 години от обесването на Левски: юбилей и преса

Author(s): Elena Getova / Language(s): Bulgarian / Publication Year: 0

The year 1898 marked the first jubilee of Vasil Levski – 25 years since his hanging. The dynamics of political processes in liberated Bulgaria at the time present a rather interesting and particularly complex picture against the background of which this event unfolded. The stereotype of jubilee celebrations was yet to consolidate and this particular occasion – the anniversary since the death of the Apostle of freedom – makes visible the deep political contradictions inherited from previous historical realities. The manifestations of these contradictions can be seen in the press in 1898.

20 years celebrated by the Journal of Educational Sciences

Insights, academic achievements and future prospects

Author(s): Simona Sava,Anca Luştrea / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2019

In 2019, the Journal of the Educational Studies (JES) celebrates its 20th anniversary, which is not automatically self-explanatory, not for a Romanian scientific journal in this discipline, and not even for any other prestigious scientific journal. Our journal has faced three main challenges in this period: first, the question of language and internationalization, closely linked to the delivery mode, secondly, the changes of the institutional context, and finally, the development of the discipline. In what follows, we will outline the development of the JES according to the challenges mentioned above, give an overview of the topics and structure adopted by the JES for the last 20 years and highlight the contributions to this special edition on the topic of generational and scientific changes in educational research in this period.

A Concept for Inclusive Physical Education Training Program for Future Pre-School and Primary-School Teachers

Author(s): Galena Terzieva / Language(s): English / Issue: 5/2019

The adoption of new normative documents in the field of education in Bulgaria determines the inclusion of children with special educational needs in general education schools. The significant and integral role which physical education plays in the educational process poses the question of the inclusion of children with impairments in motor activity training as well. Teachers implementing it contribute greatly to its positive effects. The main features of physical education include active motor activity and the related physical workload. In order for them to be adapted successfully to the specific needs of children with different disabilities, more specialized training is required. The analysis of the curricula of the faculties of education in Bulgaria shows that future pre-school and primary school teachers who will be responsible for the physical education of children in kindergartens and primary schools respectively do not receive appropriate training in adaptive physical education. The aim of this article is to present a concept for introducing a training programme on “Motor Activity Training and Inclusive Physical Education”, intended for students of the specialty Preschool and Primary School Education at the Faculty of Education, Trakia University, Bulgaria.

A Conceptual Framework to Assess University Participation in Lifelong Learning

Author(s): Alina Irina Popescu / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2013

Lifelong learning has grabbed the attention of both scholars and practitioners in the last decade and has developed into an orientation embraced by universities from all over the world as creators of knowledge and providers of learning for the knowledge economy. This article proposes a conceptual framework to assess universities’ participation in lifelong learning activities based on previous researches conducted by the author on Romanian universities involvement in lifelong learning. The proposed framework is envisaged to act as a practical management tool that can be used to obtain a holistic overview of the implementation of lifelong learning activities in Romanian universities: the forms of learning, the contexts of learning, the types of learning activities, the mostly used financial instruments to finance lifelong learning activities by Romanian universities.

A Continuum of Approaches to School Inspections: Cases from Europe

Author(s): Rossitsa Simeonova,Yonka Parvanova,Martin Brown,Gerry McNamara,Sarah Gardezi,Joe O’Hara,Laura Del Castillo Blanco,Zacharoula Kechri,Eleni Beniata / Language(s): English / Issue: 4/2020

School inspection systems have undergone a transformation in response to the changing social and economic scenarios across Europe. However, two major approaches can easily be identified that also define the two ends of the continuum of the approaches to school inspection. On one end is a high stake sanctions oriented inspection while on the other end is the low stakes advisory inspection. The elements that contribute to the rigour of school inspection include governance arrangements, statutory powers of the inspectorate including powers of sanction, the forms and frequency of inspection visits, the level of emphasis on school self-evaluation and action planning for improvement; and availability of support services for the schools. The current paper presents four cases from Europe: Bulgaria, Ireland, Greece and Spain (Extremadura) describing how school inspection is organised in these countries as defined in the governing legislation and to which end of the continuum their inspection system is tilted in the light of that case’s performance on the above indicators. Towards the end, this paper makes a comparison of the cases and suggests why the relationship of trust and respect between inspectors and the inspected is stronger in some cases and how developing inspection systems can benefit from analysing the established systems.

A formális és nem formális felnőttkori tanulás térségi vetületei

Author(s): Ágnes Engler,Edina Márkus / Language(s): Hungarian / Issue: 2/2016

In the Hungarian literature the formal adult learning is usually defined as adult education in the school system which is completed at the primary, secondary or tertiary level of education. The non-formal learning is less well-defined; in general it means organized training by an organization. Both of the learning manners are characterized by institutional approach. Our study attempts to approach the adult education from the perspective of the participants. We examine the participation rates and details using national statistical data, comparing the formal and non-formal learning from territorial approach.

A Full Spectrum Lifelong e-Learning Project for the Army

Author(s): Enrico SPINELLO,Gianluca TORBIDONE,Marina MARCHISIO,Sergio RABELLINO / Language(s): English / Issue: 15/2019

Nowadays a large organisation requires a solid and efficient system for managing the learning process of internal organisation in a lifelong learning perspective. The Italian Army decided to boost the lifelong learning concept for military personnel in a modern and digital way by using the e-learning environment. This decision was based on the long experience of the Education and Training Command and School of Applied Military Studies (COMFOR-SA) Virtual Learning Centre (VLC) and its cooperation with the University of Turin in the field of e-learning. This cooperation allows to adopt innovative teaching and learning methods and enhance the internationalization program of the Bachelor and Master Degree in Strategic Sciences attended by Officers and civilian students. In order to reach the entire potential target audience, composed of all categories, such as Officers, NCOs and Volunteers, and to maximise the use of e-learning for different didactic purposes, a full spectrum lifelong e-learning project was developed. Initially, the focus was based on the development of a special Hub composed of the Portal for Self-Paced Courses in combination with the Portal of Knowledge and the Support Portal. Then, the User's E-portfolio and the Language Portal were added. The Hub expanded its area of competence and additional portals were created. All e-learning resources and activities were properly reorganised and structured in a full spectrum new concept for a more effective e-learning experience for all military education and training purposes. The aim of this paper is to present and discuss the structure of the project in terms of contents, design and solutions adopted.
