LADISLAV TAJTÁK: „... ABY SOM BOL ÚPRIMNÝ, NERÁD HOVORÍM O SVOJICH ROKOCH A NARODENINÁCH...“1 (27. APRÍL 1921 – 25. DECEMBER 2020)

Author(s): Peter Švorc / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 3/2021

Professor Ladislav Tajták (27 April 1921 – 25 December 2020) was one of the leading representatives of Slovak historical science in the second half of the 20th century. His research was oriented towards the history of Eastern Slovakia in the 19th century and the first half of the 20th, with special emphasis on the nationality problems of this multi-ethnic region, and on emigration to the USA. The series of studies he published on these themes still serve as basic starting points for new research by his successors. As chairman of the Eastern Slovak branch of the Slovak Society of History at the Slovak Academy of Sciences, Ladislav Tajták organized a whole series of academic conferences and seminars with the aim of stimulating research activities and propagating the historical science in the wider lay environment. In the 1950s and 1960s, he helped to build up the Department of History at the Faculty of Philosophy of P. J. Šafárik in Prešov (now Prešov University. As a university teacher, he encouraged critical thinking, consistent study of archive materials and conscientious work with written text among his students. He also did this as a member of the editorial board of the Historický časopis (Historical Journal) published by the Institute of History of the Slovak Academy of Sciences in Bratislava. He received many honours and awards, but the one he especially valued was the title “Righteous among the Nations” granted by the Yad Vashem Memorial in Jerusalem.

Author(s): Tatiana Gutium / Language(s): English Issue: 4/2021

In the age of digitalization, the relevance of studying the quality of education is increasing. The main task facing the education of the Republic of Moldova is to increase the competitiveness on the world market of educational services, because the degree of digitization increases comparatively faster than the level of knowledge, and increases the gap between knowledge and skills. The research object of this study is to evaluate the quality and competitiveness of education in global indices. Various research methods were used: statistical method, comparative analysis, methods to visualize statistical data, etc. The quality and competitiveness of education were analysed both for the Republic of Moldova and for the neighbouring partner countries.

THE ISSUES OF SPEECH COMPETENCE DEVELOPMENT AT FOREIGN LITERATURE LESSONS

Author(s): Yurii Rozhkov,Elena Syrotina / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2022

This article deals with the problems of speech competence development in the system of foreign literature studying. It was established that basic directions of studying in the 7th form are to comprehend the text (emphasizing the theme, main thoughts, making plans of images etc.), develop independent thinking and an ability to analyze and make own judgments. An important task of literature education of V-VII form students is to develop an ability to clearly pronounce their thoughts and to choose and use extracts from the texts in verbal and nonverbal speech properly. Based on these criteria of language development for students of each "language age" we develop our own criteria and levels that serve as guidelines for the organization of language activities at the study of literature. Thus, in the work on the development of students' speech in connection with the study of literature, it is necessary to combine three approaches: psycholinguistic, based on the theory of language activity; linguodidactic, which studies the patterns of teaching native and foreign languages and methodological-literary, which takes into account the possibilities of literary studies, criticism and theory of public speaking.

Forming Pupils’ Positive Relationship to the Soviet Union in the Period of Socialism in Czechoslovakia Through the Lens of Chronicles

Author(s): Žaneta Gubricová / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2021

The cooperation of Czechoslovakia (and other socialist countries) with the Soviet Union was an important phenomenon during the period of socialism. It represented one form of building and consolidating socialism within socialist countries. Relationships with the Soviet Union affected political, ideological, economic and cultural domains, including education. This study follows points of departure and forms of building children’s positive relationship with the Soviet Union in the period of socialism. The content analysis of the Pioneer Organisation chronicles shows that the most frequently identified forms of activities were regularly organized (celebrations of memorial days and public holidays, politically motivated commitments, correspondence, games, expeditions, competitions, etc.). Some identified activities could be considered occasional, as they reflected current events in the Soviet Union (showing Soviet films, deaths of prominent politicians, anniversaries of birth/death of politicians, etc.). The proclaimed “diversity and attractiveness of content and forms” can characterise the process, and it affected many domains of children’s lives. However, the (in)direct power interest of the Soviet Union was hidden in the proclamation of “children’s well-being”, while the programme of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia was implemented to reinforce the communistic ideology and actual political interests.

„…vonkoncom vždy je pekné znovu začínať…“ Pedagogické pôsobenie Alžbety Güntherovej-Mayerovej (1905-1973) na Univerzite Komenského v Bratislave

Author(s): Katarína Kolbiarz Chmelinová / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 1/2021

This article is an in-depth probe into A. Güntherová-Mayerová’s pedagogical activities at the Come- nius University in Bratislava, which affected an entire generation of our art historians. It based on the summarizing and verifying of known, but especially new information acquired through the study of various archive sources. It strives to provide answers to questions arising from our existing knowledge about the aforementioned issues starting with the clarification of the true extent of her work since the second half of the 1930s until 1961. The character and extent of her teaching is presented against the historical background of our university instruction of art history. Emphasis is placed on the crucial period of her university work in the socialist era of the Czechoslovak Republic in the1950s with the significant professionalization of education in the discipline, which we have partly inherited today, accompanied by its strong political deformation. Unfortunately, her forced dismissal from the university in 1961 meant the loss of the universal expert with vision, ability and a team capable of building a strong art-historical scientific-educational institute.

Author(s): Vladimir Legac / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2021

This paper presents the findings of a research study of the writing skill in monolingual and bilingual primary school students learning English as a foreign language (EFL) in Croatia. This research study included over a hundred participants. They were divided into two groups: monolingual and bilingual. The monolingualism / bilingualism opposition has been shown in several of the author's earlier works as an important determinant of the individual that has resulted in different achievement in mastering language skills in EFL. Writing skill was tested on writing a letter in which students were required to include certain information items. For the purpose of this paper, the author provides an analysis of deviations in the use of tenses. In addition to the conclusion, the author of the paper gives implications and guidelines for further analysis of the elements that are important for the achievement in writing skill in EFL as well as for the analysis of the differences in achievement in learning EFL between monolingual and bilingual learners of EFL in other language skills.

Cestopis – prostriedok interdisciplinárneho vzdelávania?

Author(s): Zuzana Vargová,Michal Krauter / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 03/2024

The paper analyses the travelogue genre and verifies its suitability in education after the planned curricular reform. This is illustrated by the travelogue Z cestovního denníka záletu z Vídne do Benátek [From the Travel Diary of a Journey from Vienna to Venice], in which Kuzmány describes his experiences on a trip to Italy. Emphasis is placed on how nature, climate and other landscape features are reflected in the author-traveller‘s countryside image. In addition to exploring the text-formation mechanisms and the description of natural, cultural and social realities, the paper reveals the relationship between the reality depicted and the landscape visited. Thus, in the context of the contemporary atmosphere and cultural events, the proposed work not only conceives the form of the travelogue genre in the 19th century but also reflects on the possibilities of its use in various natural or social science-oriented subjects (in addition to Slovak language and literature, in history, geography and religious education). This is also reflected in the structure of the analysis of the selected travelogue.

Kultúrne kontexty kresťanskej tradície v pedagogike a v súčasných koncepciách mravnej výchovy na školách

Author(s): Mária Potočárová / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 03/2024

This paper deals with the transmission of tradition and Christian values in pedagogy, which are a firm part of philosophical and pedagogical thought in the European area. We are living in a time of profound ethical, social and cul- tural changes in an opinion-plural atmosphere of social relations. The use of appropriate language therefore remains an important didactic tool in values education today. An equally important element in the transmission of values to future generations is dealing with the content of moral education in the family and in schools. The paper focused mainly on the assessment of the state of moral education in our primary schools. It presents the results of a research probe on this topic, which brings us closer to how the content goals of moral education in Slovak primary schools are set. These are implemented in its various forms such as value, ethical, pro-social or character education.

Braillovo písmo – významný fenomén v komunikácii nevidiacich a ťažko zrakovo postihnutých

Author(s): Jana Lopúchová / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 03/2024

Braille is an internationally recognised writing system that enables the visually impaired to access documents, thus promoting their education, independence and autonomy. The accessibility of Braille is ensured by modern technology and it is still a relatively vibrant communication system today. It serves as a valuable tool for preserving the cultural heritage, identity and linguistic culture of the blind and severely visually impaired. Proficiency in Braille has a positive impact on the educational achievement, employability and self-esteem of its users. Despite the growing popularity of digital technologies, writing remains an important means for the inclusion and participation of severely visually impaired individuals in a wide spectrum of social life.

Komunikácia s rodinou ako forma intervencie v čase jej krízy

Author(s): Terézia Harčaríková,Zuzana Ivanová,Kristína Tkáčová / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 03/2024

The paper highlights the importance of communication with a family at the time of loss of a loved one. Commu- nication with survivors, who may be parents, siblings but also grandparents or schoolmates, is described and seen as a communication in crisis. The authors see the form and manner of this communication as a necessary form of interven- tion after the loss of a loved one and as one of the important pillars of so-called grief therapy. In times of crisis, in the “af- termath” of the death of a loved one, words can and often do, in the authors’ experience, have enormous power. Word art, the book, the Bible, often brings parallels with real life. A word, a story, a fairy-tale has great power because it is a carrier of an idea, a carrier of a story, a carrier of a message. The message contained in a story educates us, makes us think, and makes us respond to ourselves and to others to often painful experiences. In many ways, it shows the way. The authors see the justification for using the so-called therapeutic text as a form of intervention after a loss and in time of grieving.

Learners’ attitudes towards online learning in EFL course

Author(s): Gentjana Taraj / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2023

Although alternative models of teaching in addition to face-to-face or traditional learning are not new for many universities all over the world, the synchronous learning did not come as a natural consequence of incorporating the information and communication technology in education but was forcefully imposed on Albanian learners and educators due to Covid 19 pandemic which severely affected not only the economy, but also the education system. The present study aims at investigating the attitude of undergraduate learners towards synchronous learning. There were 141 (132 females and 9 males) students from four departments in two state Universities in Albania who participated in the study. The participants enrolled in English for Specific Purposes course for at least one semester. To measure their level of satisfaction in ESP course in Moodle Platform a questionnaire of 15 questions was used. The questionnaire consisted of three parts. It was found that learners were partially satisfied with synchronous learning in ESP course. Data indicate that learners prefer face-to-face education largely because it allows them to have a better interaction with each other and the teacher, be more active and motivated. The study suggests that the successful implementation of synchronous learning at the Institutions of Higher Education in Albania requires support from the institutions and adaptation of educational programs so that they offer the maximum acceptability and suitability to the learners.

Well-being a odolnost učitelů v českém školství

Author(s): Petra Kočková,Tomáš Hurný,Kristýna Kiliánová / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2025

Teaching is undoubtedly one of the most challenging professions, necessitating a high level of mental and physical resilience. Teachers are confronted with an ever-increasing array of demands and challenges that impact not only their professional lives but also their personal well-being. In the context of the current turbulence in the Czech education system, we discuss the closure of schools during the pandemic, the implications of this for the education sector, the introduction of inclusion in education and the integration of digital skills into the curriculum. The aforementioned circumstances place heightened demands on the psychological resilience of primary and secondary school teachers, who may be at elevated risk of burnout as a consequence. It is therefore crucial that individuals considering a career in this field are aware of their strengths and weaknesses, have a realistic understanding of the demands of the role, and are motivated. It is therefore recommended that they develop their capacity to cope with stress, adapt more effectively to change, and regulate their emotions. A pivotal concept is the concept of "career anchors," as described by E. H. Schein in the 1980s. Career anchors, which encompass an individual's abilities, motivation, and qualifications, play a pivotal role in career development and can undergo significant shifts over the course of a career. These anchors have a profound impact on career satisfaction and engagement. An essential element in the management of occupational stress is resilience, which can be defined as the capacity to cope with and recover from stressors. This concept is closely linked to mental well-being, which can be understood as a state of flourishing and positive affect. Mental well-being is a crucial element in the functioning of modern education, and it has the potential to positively influence the overall atmosphere in a school, thereby making it a place of support not only for teachers but also for pupils. This pilot study explores key aspects of teachers' well-being and resilience, with a particular focus on the interconnectedness of different areas of primary and secondary teachers' professional lives. It employs two standardized questionnaires: "Work Anchors," by E. H. Schein, and psychological well-being scales developed by Carol Ryff. The results of this study will provide new insights that could be used to develop a system of support for teachers, which is key to creating a supportive and positive school environment.

Ergoterapia v škole: podpora žiaka s dyspraxiou v prírodovedných predmetoch

Author(s): Barbora Kováčová / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 1/2025

The paper describes the theoretical background of school occupational therapy as a common component in school settings abroad. Since school occupational therapy is an underdeveloped therapeutic approach in our environment in the paper we point out its possibilities of use for the special educator. The author presents the results of a long-term occupational therapy intervention implemented in a pupil with dyspraxia, educated in a mainstream school without the use of support measures in a primary school setting. The Person-Environment-Occupation (PEO) model is applied in the context of the intervention, which focuses on addressing limiting areas such as movement planning, attentional concentration, short-term memory and academic limitations resulting from the above factors. Based on the selected problem, the author presents the importance of occupational therapy support in practicing and reinforcing the curriculum in a science-oriented subject.

Vplyv hiporehabilitácie na žiakov s poruchou autistického spektra

Author(s): Petra Švidrnochová,Jan Viktorin / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 1/2025

The paper deals with the issue of hipporehabilitation and its effect on pupils with autism spectrum disorder. Presents the results of qualitative research in the form of case studies of three pupils with autism spectrum disorder. The aim of the paper is to analyse the effect of hipporehabilitation on pupils with autism spectrum disorder, to find out how the social competence of pupils with autism spectrum disorder develops based on the use of hipporehabilitation, how the emotional experience of pupils with autism spectrum disorder changes when using hipporehabilitation and what effect the horse environment has on behaviour of pupils with autism spectrum disorder. The results show that the environment of the horse stable and horses has a positive effect on pupils with autism spectrum disorder. A significant area of benefit of hipporehabilitation is the improvement of communication skills. Another area in which hipporehabilitation had a positive effect was self-realization and self-confidence improvement. An important aspect is taking into account the influence of other therapies, which can have a significant impact on pupils’ progress.

A román felekezeti iskolák állapota Torda-Aranyos vármegyében a 19–20. század fordulóján, ahogy Téglás István tanfelügyelő látta

Author(s): Anna Bajusz / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: 2/2024

István Téglás (1853–1915) is a well-known and recognised researcher in archaeology, but his work in pedagogy, which was his original profession, has received little attention so far. Using Téglás’s school inspection notes and drawings from Turda-Arieş county, we will focus solely on the situation and condition of the Transylvanian denominational schools, taking into account the Hungarian educational policies and legislation of that time. In our study, we aim to contribute to the body of Hungarian history of education and minority policy at the turn of the 19th–20th centuries through micro-historical source publication, striving to provide additional qualitative knowledge.
