Microplastics in agroecosystems : A barrier to soil health and crop productivity
No full textHealthy soil is the foundation for sustainable agriculture to produce stable and safe yields. Microplastics in
agroecosystems affect multiple processes: they disrupt soil structure, alter water and element content, modify soil
chemistry, and interfere with microbiological activities. At the same time, agriculture is also the biggest polluter
of microplastics. Therefore, agricultural practices that use plastic materials are contrary to the principles of
sustainability. This paper aims to give an overview of the consequences of microplastics in the soil on agricultural
systems. Also, the results of alternative materials in the soil were presented to determine if the use of these
materials instead of plastic can be considered to be sustainable

ove studije mogu se koristiti kao smernice za državne organe, turističke radnike
i druge zainteresovane strane u turističkoj industriji. Proširenje podele koristi,
utemeljenija konkurencija koja proizilazi iz globalizacije i deregulacije, i porast
neiskorišćenih inovacija podataka ubrzali su kretanje ka ekonomiji zasnovanoj
na znanju i inovacijama. Sa sve većim udelom turizma u svetskoj ekonomiji i sve
većom konkurencijom u okviru svetske turističke branše, značaj kreiranja kvalitetnih
turističkih proizvoda prepoznali su i državni i privatni segmenti turizma. U dogovoru
o razvoju kvalitetnog turizma, organizacije treba da znaju koja je njihova
konkurentska prednost i koje sposobnosti imaju da razviju i održe korak. Poenta
ovog rada je da se analizira zadovoljstvo klijenata u okviru turističke ponude
u uređenju zahteva za vrhunskim kvalitetom i inventivnom administracijom.
Turistička industrija je globalna delatnost koja se razvija na nezavisan i decentralizovan
način. Industrija raste i sazreva, čineći je profesionalnijom. Tokom
proteklih decenija, turizam je kombinovao organizacije sa srodnim aktivnostima u
sveobuhvatniju industriju. Definicija turizma je kratkoročno preseljenje korisnika
turističkih usluga van njihovog posla ili prebivališta. Aktivnosti koje ljudi obavljaju
tokom boravka na odredištu podrazumeva korrišćenje usluga službi i institucija
stvorenih da zadovolje potrebe ovih ljudi. Prema mišljenju, turistička industrija
je višestruka jedinstvena industrija, uključujući karaktere, aktivnosti i objekte, u
kombinaciji sa javnošću. Svrha ove studije je da se diskutuje o značaju kvaliteta
usluge i zadovoljstva kupaca u turističkoj industriji, kao i da se dalje objasni šest
ključnih elemenata faktora uspeha u turističkoj industriji.The objective of this research is, to analyze customer satisfaction with tourist services in the Republic of Serbia.

Leveraging Smart City and Smart Tourism Technologies to Enhance Tourism Marketing : A Framework for Destination Promotion of Novi Sad
No full textToday, not only manufacturers, products and brands compete with each other, but also countries, regions, cities and tourist destinations too. While products compete for consumers, cities compete for tourists, investors, skilled labor, talented students etc. This competition is not only taking place within the borders of a country, but is increasingly moving to an international level. This competition requires marketing expertise and the correct use of marketing tools that enable cities and tourist destinations to build and maintain their competitiveness and positive image. The intensification of competition requires more conscious and thoughtful marketing policy and strategy, where Smart City and Smart Tourism technologies and solutions are also becoming more and more important.

Pokazatelji efikasnosti ishrane biljaka u kontekstu organske poljoprivredne proizvodnje
No full text1Pitanje ishrane biljaka je višestruko značajno, u poljoprivrednoj teoriji i u
praksi. Danas, imajući u vidu specifične pojave u životnoj sredini, štetne
uticaje, nekontrolisane i neprilago ene primene mineralnih ubriva, nove
zahteve sa kojima se savremena poljoprivreda suočava, rast ljudske
populacije i, iznad svega, a u isto vreme, važnost i nužnost optimalne
ishrane gajenih biljaka u cilju obezbe enja dovoljnih količina kvalitetne
hrane, ono postaje posebno značajno i zahteva sistemski pristup. U
takvim okolnostima, razumevanje mehanizma usvajanja hraniva od
strane gajenih biljaka i njihove osnovne uloge, kao i identifikacija
genotipova i vrsta efikasnih u usvajanju i iskorišćavanju hraniva,
prilago enih gajenju u uslovima suboptimalne obezbe enosti hranivima,
je posebno značajno za optimizaciju sistema ishrane biljaka. Primena
najboljih praksi u tom segmentu biljne proizvodnje, koje uključuju analizu
zemljišta i integrisano “upravljanje hranivima” mogu da osiguraju
efikasno iskorišćavanje resursa i minimiziranje uticaja na životnu sredi
“Are You Talking to Me?”: multimodalni semiotički pristup jezičkom pejzažu
No full textLinguistic Landscape is most widely accepted to represent “the visibility and salience of languages on public and commercial signs in a given territory or region” (Landry & Bourhis, 1997: 23). Interdisciplinary approach to linguistics at the beginning of the XXI century caused this area of sociolinguistic studies to thrive. Research has mostly been directed towards multilingual spaces in order to show multiple relations between how languages are employed in a specific territory and how they serve specific symbolic functions.
In this paper I argue that Multimodal Semiotic approach to communication based on Social Semiotic Theory serves as suitable lenses for researching Linguistic Landscape as a specific socially engaged discourse. Multimodal Semiotic approach redefines discourse as a socially constructed meaning on specific aspects of reality which is achieved through multiple modalities. Each modality engages three different levels of communicative metafunctions: representation, interaction and composition. Thus, discourse is constructed as a socially engaged process in which all the modalities and their respective metafunctions constantly interact in creating meaning (Hodge & Kress, 1988: 5-6; Kress & van Leeuwen, 2006: 24-25). As a result, Linguistic Landscape will be presented as a multimodal discourse making use of both linguistic and visual resources for creating meaning. Next, it will be argued that Multimodal Semiotic Analysis provides necessary methodological tools for researching and analysing Linguistic Landscape on three different levels of multimodal communicative metafunctions. Finally, it is concluded that the above-mentioned interdisciplinary approach to Linguistic Landscape provides opportunities for dealing with specific burning issues in sociolinguistics such as language and gender, language and political power, language policies etc. by focusing not only on what is represented in the public signs in a specific territory but also on who these public signs are intended for.Jezički pejzaž se najčešće definiše kao „vidljivost i značaj jezika na javnim i komercijalnim oznakama na određenoj teritoriji ili u određenom regionu” (Landry & Bourhis 1997: 23). Interdisciplinarni pristup lingvistici s početka XXI veka omogućio je procvat ove oblasti sociolingvističkih istraživanja. Istraživanja su uglavnom usmerena na višejezične prostore kako bi se pokazale višestruke veze između načina na koji se jezici koriste na određenoj teritoriji i njihovih specifičnih simboličkih funkcija. Ovaj rad tvrdi da multimodalni semiotički pristup komunikaciji, zasnovan na teoriji socijalne semiotike, pruža odgovarajuće okvire za istraživanje jezičkog pejsaža
kao specifičnog društveno angažovanog diskursa. Multimodalni semiotički pristup redefiniše diskurs kao društveno konstruisano značenje o specifičnim aspektima stvarnosti koje se ostvaruje kroz više modaliteta. Svaki modalitet uključuje tri različita nivoa komunikativnih metafunkcija: reprezentaciju, interakciju i kompoziciju. Tako se diskurs konstituiše kao društveno angažovan proces u kojem svi modaliteti i njihove pripadajuće metafunkcije stalno međusobno interreaguju u stvaranju značenja (Hodge & Kress 1988: 5–6; Kress & Van Leeuwen 2006: 24–25). Jezički pejzaž će biti predstavljen kao multimodalni diskurs koji koristi i lingvističke i vizuelne resurse za stvaranje značenja. Nakon toga će biti pokazano da multimodalna semiotička analiza pruža neophodne metodološke alate za istraživanje i analizu jezičkog pejzaža na tri različita nivoa multimodalnih
komunikativnih metafunkcija. Na kraju se zaključuje da pomenuti interdisciplinarni pristup jezičkom pejzažu pruža mogućnosti za bavljenje specifičnim gorućim pitanjima u sociolingvistici, kao što su jezik i rod, jezik politička moć i jezičke politike, fokusirajući se ne samo na to šta je predstavljeno na javnim oznakama na određenoj teritoriji, već i na to kome su te javne oznake namenjene.Tematski zbornik Jezik i društvene nauke u kontaktu : izazovi interdisciplinarnosti / Međunarodna konferencija, Novi Sad, Univerzitet u Novom Sadu, Filozofski fakultet, 202
Upitnik kognitivne regulacije emocija (CERQ): provera strukturne i konvergentne validnosti na srpskom uzorku
No full textOsnovni cilj ovog istraživanja bio je provera psihometrijskih karakteristika, odnosno strukturne i konvergentne validnosti prevoda Upitnika kognitivne regulacije emocija (CERQ) na srpski jezik, i to kroz dve sukcesivne i nezavisne studije. U Studiji 1, na uzorku od 674 mlada odrasla ispitanika (Mstarost = 19.68, SD = 1.29), proverena je stukturna validnost CERQ putem evaluacije teorijski pretpostavljene devetokomponentne strukture metodama konfirmativne faktorske analize i eksploratornog modelovanja strukturalnih jednačina. Studija 2 imala je kao cilj ponovno testiranje modela dobijenog u prethodnoj studiji na uzorku od 703 ispitanika (Mstarost = 22.96, SD = 7.05). Dodatno, proveravana je konvergentna validnost CERQ ispitivanjem povezanosti sa merama pozitivnog i negativnog afekta, zadovoljstva životom i opšte uznemirenosti. Rezultati su pokazali da CERQ predstavlja pouzdanu i validnu meru kognitivnih strategija regulacije emocija. Latentnu strukturu upitnika najbolje opisuje model koji sadrži devet teorijski očekivanih dimenzija, ali u dimenziji pozitivne preformulacije oba uzorka pokazuju iste strukturne specifičnosti, koje sugerišu dodatnu proveru kako samog instrumenta, tako i specifičnosti kognitivnih strategija regulacije emocija na našem kulturnom području. Nalazi ove dve studije takođe upućuju na korisnost eksploratornog modelovanja strukturalnih jednačina u poređenju sa tradicionalnim metodama konfirmatorne faktorske analize prilikom istrage CERQ dimenzija
Addressing foreign language anxiety in EFL classrooms: interventions to enhance the student performance and engagement
No full textForeign Language Anxiety (FLA) is a situation-specific anxiety experienced by many language learners, characterized by nervousness and fear when using or learning a foreign language, which can hinder their academic progress and reduce their willingness to communicate in the target language. FLA can arise from a mix of individual, social, and situational factors, such as fear of making mistakes, peer pressure, or high-stakes evaluations. These anxieties result in reduced participation, self-doubt, and avoidance behaviors. This paper investigates a range of interventions to reduce FLA in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms and assesses their effectiveness in improving student performance. Our review paper highlights the most effective
strategies for reducing FLA and enhancing ESL students' learning experiences and academic success. Interventions like mindfulness, collaborative learning, and teacher support can effectively reduce FLA by creating a more relaxed and supportive learning environment. Additionally, using technology and personalized strategies helps learners manage anxiety, boosting confidence and engagement. By recognizing and addressing these emotional obstacles, educators can create a more supportive learning environment for language learning.Anksioznost u učenju stranog jezika (Foreign Language Anxiety, FLA) je situaciona anksioznost koju mnogi učenici jezika doživljavaju, a karakteriše je nervoza i strah prilikom korišćenja ili učenja stranog jezika, što može ometati njihov akademski napredak i smanjiti spremnost za komunikaciju na ciljnom jeziku. FLA može nastati kao rezultat mešavine individualnih, socijalnih i situacionih faktora, poput straha od grešaka, pritiska vršnjaka ili evaluacija s visokim ulogom. Ovi strahovi dovode do smanjenog učešća, sumnje u sebe i izbegavajućeg ponašanja. Ovaj rad istražuje različite intervencije za smanjenje FLA u učionicama engleskog kao drugog jezika (ESL) i procenjuje njihovu efikasnost u unapređenju uspeha učenika. Naš pregledni rad naglašava najefikasnije strategije za smanjenje FLA i poboljšanje iskustava učenja i akademskog uspeha ESL učenika. Intervencije poput mindfulness-a, kolaborativnog učenja i podrške nastavnika mogu efikasno smanjiti FLA stvaranjem opuštenijeg i podržavajućeg okruženja za učenje. Takođe, korišćenje tehnologije i personalizovanih strategija pomaže učenicima da se nose s anksioznošću, povećavajući samopouzdanje i angažovanost. Prepoznavanjem i rešavanjem ovih emocionalnih prepreka, nastavnici mogu stvoriti podržavajuće okruženje za učenje jezika
