CHALLENGES AND EFFECTS OF USING IT IN EDUCATION

CHALLENGES AND EFFECTS OF USING IT IN EDUCATION

Author(s): Daniela Căprioară,Luana Gheorghe / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The use of IT tools in education has been approached in recent years as a complementary strategy to streamline the educational process. The year 2020 brought a radical paradigm shift in terms of education, the online school being the only solution for education for an indefinite period of time. The problem has become a general problem of society, appealing to resources that exceed the limits of the education system. Students, teachers, parents are the actors directly confronted with the challenges of online schooling. The study, conducted on the basis of a questionnaire, presents the opinions of 97 primary school students, 61 primary school teachers and 140 parents regarding the distance learning system. The difficulties encountered in adapting to the new way of organizing the school and the way they were felt are highlighted.

IMPLICATIONS OF ONLINE DIDACTIC COMMUNICATION

Author(s): Angelica Hobjilă / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Online communication involves a number of specific elements, all relevant in the current context of teaching activities. Theoretical perspective on the field will be related, in this paper, to a particular reality: that of online didactic communication capitalized on the specialization “Pedagogy of Pre-school and Primary School Teaching” from the Faculty of Psychology and Education Sciences (,,Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University, Iasi, Romania), in the second semester of the academic year 2019-2020. This particular reality will be illustrated by the students' perspective on online didactic communication from March-June 2020: platforms/means used in course/seminar/pedagogical practice/evaluation activities, advantages/disadvantages of this type of communication (versus communication in the classroom), opportunities/obstacles identified in the online activities (by reference to the organization of these activities; teacher-student-student relations; team work; emotion management; time management; technical means, etc.), proposals for improving subsequent activities.

Author(s): Loredana-Alina Stan / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

This article emphasizes the importance of preschoolers' self-image as a key factor in stimulating self-assessment. Preschool is an essential step in personality development, by individualizing the teaching-learning-assessment process.

MULTIGRADE EDUCATION IN ROMANIA TODAY SOCIAL CONTEXTS AND EDUCATIONAL CHALLENGES

MULTIGRADE EDUCATION IN ROMANIA TODAY SOCIAL CONTEXTS AND EDUCATIONAL CHALLENGES

Author(s): Irina Roxana Acatrinei / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Every child has the right to be understood and supported in the act of learning. They are different in their developmental rhythms, learning styles, their individual features. But the fact that they come from disadvantaged environments from a territorial, socio-economic and demographic point of view should not be an obstacle in their development and self-development. In these areas, schools and classes with predominantly multigrade teaching are maintained. This type of education means working simultaneously with two, three, four or even five classes, depending on the number of students. Multigrade teaching trains the teacher in a more complicated didactic activity, harmoniously combining the direct activity with the independent activity of the students, gradually and according to well-organized psycho-pedagogical principles, but it does not exempt him from going through the whole curriculum, just like to a single class. In order to give children attending school the same developmental opportunities as others, it is necessary to use the time spent at school extremely efficiently. The experience, professionalism and pedagogical mastery of the teacher will ensure the quality of this type of education.

COMMUNICATION AND INTERRELATIONSHIP IN EDUCATION. OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES IN CONTEMPORARY LEARNING

Author(s): Adina Popovici / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Interaction and communication are elements that are parts of everyone's daily experience, therefore, promoting cooperation in school leads to a better individual social adaptation. The classical communication is turned into a multidirectional and polyfunctional one, it becomes an important educational objective, considering that the student is the result of the social interaction.Current society requires that students should be educated one for each other, not one against the other, so that they should find solutions collaborating, not competing. In the educational process, collaboration and competition shouldn't be seen as opposite items, but they should interfere, so that students experience the advantages of each of them.

STREAM EDUCATION A NEW CHALLENGE FOR ROMANIAN EDUCATION

STREAM EDUCATION A NEW CHALLENGE FOR ROMANIAN EDUCATION

Author(s): Ioana-Aurelia Sabou (Baboș) / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The new concept of STREAM education (Science, Technology, Reading, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics) is at the beginning of the road in Romanian education. In the specialized literature at international level we find references and, at the same time, we notice that there is a need for an integrated approach of as many disciplines as possible, not only those of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) but also the slow integration of Religion (STRREAM), History (STRREAMH), Geography (STRREAMHG) etc. At national level, the specialized literature for this field is almost non-existent. The implementation of a STEM curriculum should be a priority of Romanian education, because most future jobs require STEM skills for future employees. A questionnaire applied online in which 101 primary school teachers participated shows that they are eager to implement such a curriculum in the classroom.

Inflation under a Currency Board: The Bulgarian Experience

Inflation under a Currency Board: The Bulgarian Experience

Author(s): Ivan Todorov,Tsvetomir Tsvetkov / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The objective of this paper is to study inflation in Bulgaria under a currency board. The theoretical fundamentals of inflation are systematized. The empirical investigations on inflation in Bulgaria under a currency board are reviewed. The determinants of inflation in Bulgaria under a currency board are identified. A vector autoregression model is specified to forecast inflation and analyze the efficiency of two macroeconomic instruments (the government’s fiscal reserve and the central bank’s minimum reserve requirements) in managing inflation. The empirical results imply that Bulgaria’s inflation is influenced by its past values and the previous values of oil prices, the Euro area’s inflation and the Bulgarian central bank’s minimum reserve requirements. The only macroeconomic instrument Bulgarian policymakers can use to impact on inflation are the minimum required reserves of commercial banks. Since the minimum reserve requirements lack the dosed effect, the reversibility and the flexibility of other monetary tools, their use is recommended in heavy crises only and when no other options are available.

Opportunistic Behavior and the Impact on Audit Quality in Albania

Opportunistic Behavior and the Impact on Audit Quality in Albania

Author(s): Shyquri Llaci,Blanka Hhani / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The 21st century has witnessed the bankruptcy of many large corporations because of the opportunistic behavior of management reflected in the financial statement. A realistic review from the board of directors to the internal management can only be carried out with genuine data, which are distributed along with the financial statements. This allows shareholders and other stakeholders to examine the company’s performance and make accurate decisions. All this control is carried out by external auditors who certify the financial statements. Although it is challenging to evaluate an auditor’s job, this paper sought to pinpoint the causes of their opportunistic conduct in this study. The authors examined five variables that could cause opportunistic behavior, including time budget pressure, client importance, personality type and turnover intention, and analyzed their attitude to critical ethical issues in situations they face during their work as external auditors. This research is based on the quantitative primary data. The sampled population is 150 auditors in Tirana, from the 236 certified auditors registered in Albania, until February 2023; also, from the 65 audit firms, only the Big 4 are taken, to gather primary data and regression analysis is used to examine every single one of them. The questionnaire was created based on previous studies and was distributed through a survey in Google Forms, using a hybrid data collection approach. As a primary step, a literature review was conducted regarding the ethical issues of an auditor during the audit of financial statements. The study concludes that time budget pressure, client importance, and personality type were the most important factors for the opportunistic behavior of auditors in Albania, and has found that the impact of the turnover factor is minimal.

Rebalancing Portfolios in Periods of Stress in the Global Economy: Capital Markets vs.WTI, XAU, XAG, XPT

Rebalancing Portfolios in Periods of Stress in the Global Economy: Capital Markets vs.WTI, XAU, XAG, XPT

Author(s): Nicole Horta,Mariana Chambino,Rui Dias / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The purpose of this paper is to estimate whether portfolio diversification is feasible in the capital markets of the Netherlands (AEX), France (CAC 40), Germany (DAX 30), Canada (FTSE 100), Italy (FTSE MIB), Spain (IBEX 35), Russia (IMOEX), and the commodities oil (WTI), silver (XAG), gold (XAU), and platinum (XPT) from January 1st, 2018, to December 31st, 2022. The goal of this analysis is to answer the following question, namely to know if: i) the 2020 and 2022 events accentuated the integration between capital markets and commodities (WTI), silver (XAG), gold (XAU), and platinum (XPT)? The results show that during the Tranquil period, the markets present 41 integrations (in 110 possible), with the French price index (CAC 40) integrating the most with its peers, with 8 integrations (in 10 possible), while the commodities markets present the lowest integrations, with silver (XAG) presenting the most relevant number of integrations (2 in 10 possible) and platinum (XPT) showing only 1 integration (in 10 possible). Oil (WTI) and gold (XAU) have not integrated with any of their peers during this period of tranquillity. During the period of the 2020 and 2022 events, there were 60 integrations in 110 possible. According to the results and when compared to the previous sub-period, the capital mar¬kets maintained/decreased the same number of integrations with their peers. Silver (XAG) and platinum (XPT) also showed an increase in the number of integrations. XAG exhibited 5 integrations (out of a possible 10), whereas platinum (XPT) had 7 integrations (out of 10 possible). Gold (XAU) was the only commodity that remained completely segmented from both the capital markets and the commodities under consideration. To answer the diversification question, there is evidence that the gold market (XAU) exhibits safe-haven characteristics during the 2020 and 2022 events; these findings are relevant for individual and institutional investors operating in these financial markets.

Interconnections between Clean Energy and Traditional Commodities: Analysis of Energy Fuels, S&P Global Clean Energy Index, and Ishares Global Clean Energy ETF Compared to Oil, Gold, and Natural Gas Prices

Interconnections between Clean Energy and Traditional Commodities: Analysis of Energy Fuels, S&P Global Clean Energy Index, and Ishares Global Clean Energy ETF Compared to Oil, Gold, and Natural Gas Prices

Author(s): Nicole Horta,Mariana Chambino,Rui Dias / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The study of the changes between the Energy Fuels Index, S&P Global Clean Energy Index, iShares Global Clean Energy ETF, iShares Global Energy (SWX) ETF, as well as the changes in the prices of crude oil (BRENT), gold (DJ), and natural gas (DG) was deemed extremely relevant given the importance and emergence of clean energies in the global landscape, as well as the need to develop more empirical studies, especially confirmative studies on the financial dynamics in these markets. The daily returns under analysis exhibit negative and leptokurtic asymmetry rather than a normal distribution. Comparatively, the pre-crisis linkages between the markets for dirty and clean energy are in favor of global portfolio diversification since those low levels of dependence are appropriate to reduce investor exposure to risk. The crude oil market already exhibited a significant effect on the clean energy markets during the Stress subperiod, particularly on the Clean Energy Fuels Index, the iShares Global Clean Energy ETF, and the iShares Global Clean Energy (SWX) ETF. It should be highlighted that the clean energy markets have also increased their impact on the markets for gold and dirty energy (crude oil and natural gas). The findings point to an increase in comovements between the examined indices and the events of 2020 and 2022. These results decrease the possibility that clean energy markets will serve as a portfolio diversification substitute for the gold and dirty energy markets. For investors and financial analysts who are interested in understanding how the various sectors of the energy market interact, these results may also have consequences. These results can enable a more precise forecast of energy market trends and more informed investment decisions by offering a more detailed knowledge of the link between clean and dirty energy prices.

BAT Techniques in Agribusiness through the Prism of Sustainable Development in the Republic of Serbia

Author(s): Milena Milojević,Suzana Knežević,Jelena Ignjatović / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Today’s climatic, ecological, and social challenges impose pressure on decision-makers to provide systemic solutions in all areas of business, including agribusiness. The changes that take place within the domestic regulatory framework need to be harmonized with the international legal framework of the sustainable development of the European Union. This will directly affect new solutions for achieving the goals of sustainable development. Modern livestock farms imply the use of modern agricultural mechanization following BAT techniques. The application of the principles of BAT techniques should be included in all stages of the production process on the farm. This includes planning, operation, maintenance as well and closing the farm according to acceptable technical and economic conditions, all to achieve the highest possible level of environmental protection. This work aims to point out the importance of BAT techniques in agribusiness through the prism of sustainable development in the Republic of Serbia. The first part of the paper analyzes the impact of global trends on agribusiness in Serbia. The second part indicates the importance of applying BAT techniques for sustainable development, while the third part of the paper examines the possibility of applying BAT techniques from the aspect of animal husbandry.

A European Perspective on Engaging and Supporting Civil Society Organisations in Local Territorial Development

A European Perspective on Engaging and Supporting Civil Society Organisations in Local Territorial Development

Author(s): George Mihael Manea / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

In an inter-connected world, having strong interdependencies, the transfer of know-how represents a blueprint for development. In a transition from global to local, in order to stimulate the challenges of local development, it is paramount to understand how to act, to connect civil society with local authorities, and to create a dynamic and multi-stakeholder dialogue. Development at the local level could lead to a more engaged civil society and more predictable governance from the local authorities; for example, developing a comprehensive set of policies could contribute to a food-secure population, but also tackle issues related to transparency and accountability. The practical experience of the author in Gabon and Sao Tome and Principe will bring an innovative and original approach to complement the existing literature with the reality of the project cycle on the ground, in two specific areas such as agriculture and good governance.

Significance of Financial Valuation of Brands in Agribusiness in Serbia

Significance of Financial Valuation of Brands in Agribusiness in Serbia

Author(s): Jelena Ignjatović,Ivana Vladimirović,Borislav Kolarić / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Agricultural production represents a significant financial and economic value of the Serbian economy. Today’s food crisis has shown the importance of agribusiness for the economic development of both, countries in transition and Serbia. Therefore, modern management approaches, in the sphere of agribusiness, are gaining more and more importance. A large number of agricultural enterprises in Serbia derive part of their value from the strength of the brand they produce. That is why agricultural managers strive to increase the value of the company, through increasing the value of the brand. As the modern economy bases value on the customer, it is important to look at and determine the parameters of the company’s value, through brand valuation. There are numerous examples of branded agricultural and food products in Serbia. These are traditional products, with a quality mark, made from high-quality domestic raw materials, according to a unique recipe and technological procedure. Such products usually have a mark of geographical origin and have recognizable characteristics. It adds value, that is realized, by selling on the market. In Serbia, the most common brands are the following products: meat, cheeses, wines, beers, water, honey and many other products obtained by processing domestic fruits and vegetables. Therefore, the goal of this paper is to determine the importance of the financial valuation of the brand in agribusiness in Serbia. In this paper, research was conducted based on data analysis through the synthesis of theoretical and empirical facts. From the methodological side, the work is based on the desk method of research, which covers synthesis, analysis, deduction and induction, but also methods of description of published scientific works, texts and documents related to brand valuation in agribusiness. In addition, the collected data were systematized. After the introduction, the paper primarily discussed the importance of product branding. The importance of the financial valuation of the brand in Serbia was analyzed with a focus on its financial effects, as well as the importance of product branding in Serbian agribusiness. At the end, a conclusion is given.

Management of Land Consolidation Projects

Management of Land Consolidation Projects

Author(s): Žarko Nestorović,Milan Trifković,Miroslav Kuburić,Bogdan Bojović / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Land consolidation (LC) is a complex process conducted to rearrange the land property, or more precisely, rearranging the parcel shape and position including optimization of roads and irrigation systems. LC includes a lot of activities provided in a very sensitive and unpredictable environment because it deals with land property and land owners (farmers) who could behave in concordance with their perception of land property value and their value system. Bearing in mind the long period of land consolidation projects, the land owners could change their initial opinion formed at the beginning of land consolidation projects’ realization. All these facts additionally increase the complexity of the land consolidation process. The lack of literature in the domain of leadership and management during the land consolidation process inspired authors to open discussion about that issue.
