Relations between teachers\u27 technology integration within ICAP modes with moderation effects
This international study used the Interactive-Constructive-Active-Passive (ICAP) framework to examine the relations between teachers\u27 integration of technology (TI) within different forms of learning/engaging modes. This study also explores how teacher age, experience, gender, and social background relate to these ICAP modes. Data were collected from 2978 teachers from seven European countries and analysed through Covariance-Based Structural Equation (CBSEM) using MPLUS 8 software. The main findings of this study show strong relations among passive, active, constructive, and interactive learning/engaging modes. A notable finding is that teaching experience and socio-economic context significantly influence these TI patterns, which indicate a pronounced shift from passive to active mode among novice teachers and that teachers in lower-ICT contexts face additional barriers. These and other results are discussed in this paper
Measuring and Monitoring Business Uncertainty in the Age of Artificial Intelligence: The Case of a Cable News-Based Business Uncertainty Index
Poslovna negotovost ni nov pojav v ekonomiji, res pa je, da se o poslovni negotovosti veliko govori in piše po finančni krizi leta 2008, zlasti pa zdravstveni krizi leta 2020. V tem poglavju predstavljamo na kabelskih novicah temelječi indeks poslovne negotovosti, ki smo ga razvili za potrebe oblikovalcev politike in raziskovalcev, ki se vsakodnevno srečujejo s poslovnimi izzivi. Razvijemo dve različi indeksa poslovne negotovosti za Združene države Amerike in ju primerjamo z obstoječimi kazalniki. Pomen poslovne negotovosti na poslovanje podjetij (proizvodnja in prodaja), zaposlitvene odločitve in dinamiko cen v Združenih državah Amerike preverimo z vektorsko avtoregresijskim modelom in oceno impulzno-odzivnih funkcij
Factors affecting the effectiveness of litter management practices: an overview
In terms of selection, pig farmers have aimed to maximize profitability for decades by increasing litter sizes through choosing gilts with seven or more pairs of teats. This has resulted in sows with numerically large litters, an increase in within-litter birth weight variation, and more piglets with a low birth weight. For newborns, the amount of colostrum consumed within the first 24 h after birth is particularly important for thermoregulation, passive immunity and adequate growth during lactation. The colostrum must be consumed early, for at least the first 6 h after birth. Only after consuming the mother’s colostrum, i.e., within 24 to 48 h after birth, is performing cross-fostering (CF) recommended, whereby light piglets are placed with another sow. Alternatively, farmers can choose a one- or two-step CF technique with nurse sows. If there are surplus piglets and substitute mothers are not available, the option of artificially rearing the piglets with liquid (milk replacer) and, later, solid feed remains, which is nevertheless a suboptimal method compared to CF. One way or another, all breeder interventions and different management strategies for large litters are associated with reduced piglet welfare
Italijanski prevodi in recepcija Srečka Kosovela
Prispevek se posveča italijanskim prevodom in recepciji književnosti Srečka Kosovela, enega največjih slovenskih pesnikov. Italijanski prevodi Kosovelovih del obsegajo 19 samostojnih knjižnih izdaj. Nekateri prevodi bolj sledijo izhodiščnim leksikalnim in skladenjskim vidikom, medtem ko drugi bolj upoštevajo tudi glasovne vidike in značilnosti ciljne književne tradicije. V italijanskem kontekstu so S. Kosovelu posvečene številne študije, ki odstirajo različne vidike Kosovelove književnosti in osebnosti (književne, družbene, zasebne), druga, z njim povezana dela (od uglasbitev do po njem poimenovane prevajalske nagrade) pa dodatno utrjujejo njegovo vlogo kot pomembnega književnika. V Italiji je S. Kosovel predvsem slovenski avtor, povezan s slovensko-italijanskim obmejnim prostorom: njegovi italijanski posredniki ostajajo večinoma Slovenci ali slovensko-italijanski avtorji, njegova in z njim povezana dela pa izhajajo večinoma v Furlaniji - Julijski krajini, kar predstavlja osnovni okvir njegove italijanske recepcije. Ne glede na to pa je kontinuirano objavljanje Kosovelovih in z njim povezanih del v italijanščini dober signal za boljše poznavanje S. Kosovela v Italiji

Advanced architectural approaches: parametric design and artificial intelligence in the design of a spa resort in Lovrenc na Pohorju
Osnovni namen magistrskegaLovrenc na Pohorju je zaradi neokrnjene
narave, gozdnega okolja in ugodne mikroklime skozi zgodovino veljal za
pomembno klimatsko zdraviliško destinacijo. Območje nekdanjega
penziona Bitner je bilo del te zdraviliške tradicije, danes pa je prostorsko
degradirano in brez jasne vsebinske vloge, kljub izrazitemu potencialu za
razvoj sodobnega centra zdravja. Neizkoriščenost lokacije pomeni izgubo
zgodovinske kontinuitete ter priložnosti za ponovni razvoj kraja kot
zdraviliške destinacije.
Magistrsko delo obravnava problematiko sodobnega življenjskega sloga,
zaznamovanega s stresom, izgorelostjo in pomanjkanjem stika z naravnim
okoljem, ter preučuje vlogo arhitekture pri ustvarjanju terapevtskih
prostorov. Teoretični del zajema teme izgorelosti, kulture zdravja,
klimaterapije, parametrične arhitekture in umetne inteligence v
arhitekturnem načrtovanju. S pomočjo analitičnih orodij in umetne
inteligence so bili razviti konceptualni volumenski predlogi, iz katerih izhaja
končna rešitev.
Nova arhitekturna zasnova predstavlja sodoben klimatski center z
nastanitvenimi kapacitetami, wellness in terapevtskimi programi. Objekt je
oblikovan s parametrično zasnovanim plaščem, ki se odziva na teren,
podnebje in poglede ter se z organsko obliko zliva z naravnim okoljem.
Namen predloga je ponovno oživiti območje, okrepiti lokalno identiteto ter
vzpostaviti trajnostni prostor zdravja in oddiha.Lovrenc na Pohorju, surrounded by unspoiled forests and characterized by
a favorable mountain climate, has historically been recognized as a
climatic spa destination. The area of the former Bitner guesthouse was
part of this tradition, but today remains spatially degraded and functionally
abandoned, despite its strong potential for redevelopment into a
contemporary health facility. The underutilization of the site represents
both a loss of historical continuity and an unrealized opportunity for the
renewal of the area.
The thesis addresses the issues of contemporary lifestyles marked by
stress, burnout, and the lack of contact with the natural environment, and
explores the role of architecture in creating therapeutic spaces. The
theoretical framework includes burnout, health culture, climatotherapy,
parametric architecture, and the application of artificial intelligence in
architectural design. Analytical tools and AI methods were used to
generate conceptual volume studies which informed the final design
proposal.
The architectural solution proposes a new climatic health center with
accommodation facilities, wellness areas, and therapeutic programs. The
building is designed with a parametric envelope that responds to the
terrain, climate conditions, and views, while its organic form integrates with
the natural landscape. The aim of the design is to revitalize the site,
reinforce local identity, and establish a sustainable environment for health
and retreat
Perimeter blocks in Maribor: analysis and models for urban regeneration
Magistrsko delo obravnava karejski tip zazidave na splošno in posebej na levem bregu Drave v Mariboru ter analizira njegov morfološki razvoj, prostorske značilnosti in sodobne izzive urbane regeneracije. Teoretični del vzpostavi širši zgodovinski in strokovni okvir, umesti mariborske kareje v kontekst zgodovinskih vplivov ter skozi študije primerov obravnava sodobne evropske pristope urbane regeneracije. Poseben poudarek je namenjen transformacijam in regeneraciji karejev skozi 19., 20. in 21. stoletje ter njihovi urbanistični vlogi v mestu.
V aplikativnem delu naloga opredeli štiri vrste posegov urbane regeneracije: A – prenovo odprtega prostora, B – prenovo in nadzidavo obstoječih stavb, C – plombo oziroma zapolnitev vrzeli ter D – novo gradnjo v notranjosti kareja. Vrste posegov temeljijo na analizi izbranih referenčnih primerov in služijo kot metodološka osnova za razvoj modelov posegov, ki omogočajo primerjavo različnih razvojnih usmeritev. Ti modeli so nato aplicirani na posamezne kareje ter podrobneje predstavljeni v projektnem delu na izbranem kareju.
Predlagani modeli urbane regeneracije poudarjajo vlogo in potencial karejske zazidave, ki s kakovostno zasnovanimi odprtimi površinami ter uravnoteženim prepletom javnih in stanovanjskih programov, predstavlja utemeljeno podlago za nadaljnji razvoj trajnostnih mest.The master’s thesis examines the perimeter block typology in general and specifically on the left bank of the Drava River in Maribor and analyses its morphological development, spatial characteristics, and contemporary challenges of urban regeneration. The theoretical part establishes a broader historical and specialized framework, situates the perimeter blocks of Maribor within the context of historical influences and through case studies discusses contemporary European approaches to urban regeneration. Special emphasis is placed on the transformations and regeneration of perimeter blocks throughout the nineteenth, twentieth and twenty first centuries and on their urban role in the city.
In the applied part the thesis defines four types of urban regeneration interventions: A for the renewal of open space, B for the renewal and addition of storeys to existing buildings, C for infill development or the filling of gaps and D for new construction in the interior of the block. The types of interventions are based on an analysis of selected reference cases and serve as the methodological basis for the development of intervention models which allow the comparison of different development trajectories. These models are then applied to individual blocks and presented in more detail in the project section on the selected perimeter block.
The proposed models of urban regeneration emphasize the role and potential of the perimeter block typology which with well-designed open spaces and a balanced integration of public and residential programs provides a substantiated foundation for the further development of sustainable cities
The stewarding service as a security mechanism at public gatherings
Rediteljska služba predstavlja pomemben varnostni mehanizem za vzdrževanje reda, usmerjanje udeležencev in preprečevanje incidentov na javnih zbiranjih. Po Zakonu o javnih zbiranjih (»Zakon o javnih zbiranjih (ZJZ-UPB5)«, 2011) mora organizator zagotoviti ustrezno število usposobljenih rediteljev, ki izpolnjujejo določene pogoje, medtem ko Zakon o zasebnem varovanju (»Zakon o zasebnem varovanju (ZZaSV-1)«, 2011) določa pogoje in pristojnosti varnostnikov, ki pogosto opravljajo delo na istih dogodkih. Četudi imajo reditelji zelo podobno vlogo kot varnostniki, ne sodijo v delovno razmerje po Zakonu o zasebnem varovanju. Med omenjenima službama obstajajo pomembne razlike glede samih pravic, obveznosti in pogojev za delo, kar povzroča veliko nejasnosti. Izstopajo tudi pomanjkljivosti v zakonski opredelitvi nadzora nad delom rediteljskih služb, zato bi bili smiselni bolj jasna razmejitev nalog in pristojnosti ter usklajena zakonska ureditev obeh področij. S tem bi bilo izvajanje javnih zbiranj bolj učinkovito in varno za vse udeležence.The stewarding service represents an important security mechanism for maintaining order, directing participants, and preventing incidents at public gatherings. According to the Public Gatherings Act ("Zakon o javnih zbiranjih (ZJZ-UPB5)", 2011), the organiser is obliged to provide an adequate number of qualified stewards who meet specific conditions, while the Private Security Act ("Zakon o zasebnem varovanju (ZZaSV-1)", 2011) sets out the requirements and competences of security guards, who often perform duties at the same events. Although stewards have a very similar role to security guards, they are not employed under the provisions of the Private Security Act. Significant differences exist between these two services regarding rights, responsibilities and working conditions, leading to considerable legal and operational ambiguities. Notable shortcomings are also present in the statutory regulation of supervision over stewarding services. Therefore, a clearer delineation of tasks and competences, and harmonised legal regulation of both areas, would be advisable. This would ensure more effective and safer implementation of public gatherings for all participants
