Political activities of Frano Supilo until the beginning of the First World War
U radu je kronološki prikazan politički život Frana Supila do početka Prvog svjetskog rata. Cilj rada je prikaz političkog razvitka Frana Supila i njegova neumorna politička borba. Rad se može podijeliti na više etapa. Prva etapa je Supilova borba za općinsku vlast u Dubrovniku. Potom prelazak u Sušak pa ubrzo nakon toga u Rijeku gdje se bavio novinarskim poslom i uređivao Novi list. Kao posljednja i najznačajnija etapa bi bila stvaranje politike novog kursa i političko djelovanje u Hrvatsko-srpskoj koaliciji. Također, rad je zaključen sa veleizdajničkim (Friedjungovim) procesom i aneksijskom krizom, što dovodi do Supilovog povlačenja iz koalicije.The paper chronologically presents the political life of Frano Supilo until the beginning of the First World War. The aim of the paper is to present the political development of Frano Supilo and his tireless political struggle. The work can be divided into several stages. The first stage is Supilos fight for the municipal government in Dubrovnik. Then he moved to Sušak and soon after that to Rijeka, where he worked as a journalist and edited Novi list. The last and most important stage would be the creation of a new course policy and political action in the Croatian-Serbian coalition. Also, the work concluded with the high-treason (Friedjung) process and the annexation crisis, which led to Supilos withdrawal from the coalition
Priroda i odrednice sekstinga među adolescentima i mladima: kros-kulturalno istraživanja
Buildings, infrastructure and construction of Tilurium
Tema ovog diplomskog rada su građevine, infrastruktura i graditeljstvo Tilurija. Ovaj antički lokalitet dugo je bio zanemarivan od strane arheologije, stoljećima pljačkan i uništavan, a tek se krajem 20. st. počeo sustavno arheološki istraživati od strane Arheološkog zavoda filozofskog fakulteta u Zagrebu. Tilurij se nalazio na vaţnom prijelazu preko rijeke Cetine te je još od prapovijesti bio vaţno sjecište puteva koji su od obale vodili prema unutrašnjosti Dalmacije. Tu važnu poziciju prvo su prepoznali Delmati koji su tu napravili gradinu, a potom Rimljani, početkom 1. st. svoj vojni logor. U logoru su otkriveni arhitektonski ostatci vojničkih spavaonica (centurija), bedemi, cisterne, nekoliko građevina te dijelovi podnog mozaika u središnjem dijelu logora. U tom logoru prvo je bila pozicionirana VII. legija koja 42. godine dobija počasni naslov Claudia Pia Fidelis. Nakon što je VII. legija
Claudia Pia Fidelis sredinom 1. st. napustila Tilurij, logor uglavnom zaposjedaju augzilijarne postrojbe. Od sredine 3. stoljeća, kontrolu nad Tilurijem preuzimaju konzularni beneficijari. Unatoč arheološkim istraživanjima koja traju i danas, veliki dijelovi lokaliteta još nisu istraživani te zahtijevaju zaštitu od potencijalnih pljačkanja i devastacija.The topic of this graduation thesis is the buildings, infrastructure and construction of Tilurium. This ancient site was neglected by archaeology for a long time, looted and being destroyed for centuries, and only at the end of the 20th century was it systematically started to explore archaeologically by the Arhaeological Institute of the Faculty of Philosophy from Zagreb. Tilurium was located at an important crossing over the Cetina river and since prehistoric times it was an important intersection of roads that connected coast with the interior of Dalmatia. This valuable position was first recognised by the Delmatians, who built a fortress there, and then by the Romans, who at the beginning of the 1st century raised a military camp at that position. Architectural remains of soldiers' dormitories (centuries), ramparts, cisterns, several buildings and parts of the floor mosaic in the central part of the camp were discovered in the camp. 7th legion was a first military unit that was positioned in that camp. In 42 AD it received the honorary title Claudia Pia Fidelis. 7th legion Claudia Pia Fidelis left Tilurium in the middle of the 1st century, and since then, the camp had most of time been occupied by auxiliary units. From the middle of the 3rd century, the control of Tilurium was assumed by the consular beneficiaries. Despite the archaeological research that continues today, large parts of the site have not yet been explored, and require protection from potential looting and devastation
The Role of Pedagogues in Primary and Secondary Schools During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Pedagog je najzastupljeniji stručni suradnik u školama i predstavlja profil djelatnika s najraznovrsnijim opsegom posla zbog čega je ključan akter u prilagodbi odgojnoobrazovne djelatnosti. Široko područje njegovog rada podrazumijeva svakodnevnu komunikaciju i suradnju, stoga pedagog predstavlja sponu među svim (su)dionicima odgojno-obrazovnog sustava. Pandemija bolesti COVID-19 i mjere koje su uslijedile kao posljedica njenog širenja pred odgojno-obrazovne ustanove postavile su nove izazove koji su utjecali na promjenu uloga i zadaća svih sudionika odgojno-obrazovnog procesa. Specifični uvjeti života i rada koji su nenadano i brzo zahvatili čovječanstvo u 2020. godini, suočili su pedagoge s novim zahtjevima zbog čega je naglasak u ovom radu postavljen na utvrđivanje njihove uloge u osnovnim i srednjim školama za vrijeme pandemije bolest COVID-19. Provedeno je kvalitativno istraživanje na uzorku od deset stručnih suradnika pedagoga koji rade u osnovnim i srednjim školama diljem Republike Hrvatske. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su da je uloga pedagoga tijekom pandemije bila prvenstveno organizacijska i koordinacijska kako bi se osigurali što bolji tehnički i radni uvjeti za sve. Važnu ulogu pedagozi su imali u pružanju emocionalne podrške, ali i motiviranju učenika i nastavnika. Rad i obrazovanje od kuće posredstvom informacijskokomunikacijskih tehnologija zamijenili su neposredan rad u školi što je u najvećoj mjeri utjecalo na interpersonalnu komunikaciju koja je u novim uvjetima bila otežana. Drugačiji oblik provedbe nastave zahtijevao je usvajanje novih načina komunikacije u čemu je svakodnevna suradnja pedagoga s ostalim sudionicima odgojno-obrazovnog procesa bila ključna za uspješnu provedbu nastave. Savjetovanje i usmjeravanje učenika i nastavnika, uz praćenje kvalitete izvođenja nastave i njeno poboljšanje bili su jedni od prioritetnih zadataka pedagoga. Unatoč mnogim izazovima i izostanku praktičnih uputa za rad, pedagozi su podršku najviše tražili među svojim kolegama te su u konačnici zadovoljni svojim radom za vrijeme pandemije. Istraživanje je pokazalo kako je njihova uloga u školi ostala nepromijenjena, ali su im specifični uvjeti rada ponudili neka nova iskustva i vještine koje koriste i danas u svome radu.The pedagogue is the most represented expert associate in schools and represents the profile of an employee with the most diverse scope of work therefore he is a key factor in the adjustment of educational activity. The broad scope of his work implies daily communication and cooperation, therefore the pedagogue represents a link between all (co)participants of the educational system. The pandemic of the disease COVID-19 and the measures that followed as a result of its spread posed new challenges to educational institutions that affected the change of roles and tasks of all participants in the educational process. The specific conditions of life and work that suddenly and quickly affected humanity in 2020, faced pedagogues with new demands, that is why the emphasis in this paper is on determining their role in primary and secondary schools during the COVID19 pandemic. Qualitative research was conducted on a sample of ten expert pedagogic associates who work in primary and secondary schools throughout the Republic of Croatia. The results of the research showed that the role of pedagogues during the pandemic was primarily organizational and coordinating in order to ensure the best possible technical and working conditions for everyone. Pedagogues played an important role in providing emotional support, but in motivating students and teachers too. Work and education from home using information and communication technologies replaced direct work at school, which had the greatest impact on interpersonal communication, which was difficult in the new conditions. A different form of teaching required the adoption of new ways of communication, in which the daily cooperation of pedagogues with other participants in the educational process was crucial for successful teaching. Advising and guiding students and teachers, as well as monitoring the quality of teaching and improving it, were among the priority tasks of pedagogues. Despite the many challenges and the absence of practical instructions for work, pedagogues mostly sought support from their colleagues and were ultimately satisfied with their work during the pandemic. The research showed that their role in the school remained unchanged, but the specific working conditions offered them some new experiences and skills that they still use in their work today

The research argues that there is scope for further exploration and analysis, inviting scholars and cinephiles to explore the unexploited potential of this cinematic approach
Teacher's Role in Creating a Positive Classroom Climate
Učiteljska profesija mijenjala se tijekom povijesti. Jedno od najbitnijih segmenata kvalitetnog rada učitelja je pozitivno razredno ozračje. U teorijskom dijelu rada prikazana je učiteljska profesija kroz formalno inicijalno obrazovanje, cjeloživotno učenje, kompetencije i stil rukovođenja razreda. Osnovni cilj bio je analizirati određene elemente suvremenih empirijskih istraživanja na nacionalnoj razini koji tematiziraju ulogu učitelja u izgradnji pozitivnog razrednog ozračja. Ukupno je izdvojeno dvadeset i jedno istraživanja, od kojih je dvanaest bilo daljnje analizirano. Glavni zadaci istraživanja odnosili su se na utvrđivanje načina operacionalizacije instrumentarija, korištenih pristupa istraživanja i razlika u uzorku istraživanja, ispitivanje razlika u problemima odabranih istraživanja i utvrđivanje preporuka za buduća istraživanja uloge učitelja u ostvarivanju pozitivnog razrednog ozračja u nacionalnom kontekstu. Utvrđeno je korištenje instrumenta Moj razred u četiri analizirana rada te sličnosti operacionalizacije instrumentarija pet radova u skalama procjene koje su analizirale zadovoljstvo školom, interakciju učenika i učitelja, zadovoljstvo školom i osjetljivost na nasilje. Nadalje, kvalitativan pristup istraživanju koristio je samo jedan rad, dok su u uzorku istraživanja ispitanici bili učitelji ili učenici. U problemima istraživanja odabranih radova, najčešće su prisutni elementi razrednog ozračja koji se odnose na utjecaj istih na odnos i komunikaciju učitelja i učenika, zadovoljstvo nastavom i učeničko samopoimanje. Posljednje, prostori za napredak naglašeni su u radovima koji su za uzorak imali učenike, a odnosi se na opadanje zadovoljstva učenika nastavnim metodama i povjerenja u učitelje s porastom dobi. Također, kod učitelja su vidljive potrebe za dodatnim usavršavanjima na temu razrednog ozračja kako bi uspješno odgovorili na potrebe svojih učenika.The teaching profession has changed throughout history. One of the most important segments of a teacher's quality work is a positive classroom atmosphere. In the theoretical part of the work, the teaching profession is presented through formal initial education, lifelong learning, competencies, and class management style. The main goal was to analyze certain elements of contemporary empirical research at the national level that address the role of teachers in building a positive classroom atmosphere. A total of twenty-one studies were selected, twelve of which were further analyzed. The main tasks of the research were related to determining the way of operationalizing the instruments, used research approaches and differences in the research sample, examining the differences in the problems of the selected research and determining recommendations for future research on the role of teachers in achieving a positive classroom atmosphere in the national context. The use of the My Class instrument in four analyzed papers was determined, as well as similarities in the operationalization of the instruments of five papers in assessment scales that analyzed satisfaction with school, interaction between students and teachers, satisfaction with school and sensitivity to violence. Furthermore, the qualitative research approach was used in one paper, while in the research sample the respondents were teachers or students. In the research problems of the selected works, elements of the classroom atmosphere are most often present, which refer to their influence on the relationship and communication between teachers and students, satisfaction with teaching and student self-concept. Lastly, the areas for improvement were highlighted in the works that had students as a sample, and it refers to the decline in student satisfaction with teaching methods and trust in teachers with increasing age. Also, there is a visible need for additional training on the topic of classroom atmosphere among teachers to successfully respond to the needs of their students
Machine Translation of texts as a Tool for Information Dissemination
Predmet rada je analiza diseminacije informacija kroz strojno prevođenje, sa posebnim naglaskom na tehnologije koje podržavaju ovaj proces. Strojno prevođenje predstavlja ključni alat u modernoj komunikaciji, omogućujući brzi i efikasan prijenos informacija između različitih jezika i kultura. Motivacija za proučavanje ovog predmeta proizlazi iz sve veće potrebe za učinkovitom komunikacijom i razmjenom informacija u globaliziranom svijetu, gdje je brzina i točnost informacija ključna, osobito u kontekstu znanstvene komunikacije, zdravstva i obrazovanja. Metodologija istraživanja uključuje analizu jednog teksta ubačenog u postojeće alate za strojno prevođenje, nakon čega je prikazana i usporedba dobivenih rezultata iz izabranih alata. Najvažniji rezultati ukazuju na to da su moderni alati za strojno prevođenje, posebno oni temeljeni na dubokom učenju, značajno poboljšali kvalitetu automatskih prijevoda, čime su se otvorila vrata za širu primjenu u raznim sektorima, uključujući znanost, zdravstvo i obrazovanje. Ova tehnologija ne samo da olakšava pristup informacijama, već i potiče globalnu suradnju, čime se smanjuju jezične barijere i poboljšava međusobno razumijevanje. Glavni zaključak rada ističe da je integracija strojnog prevođenja u procese diseminacije informacija od esencijalne važnosti za poboljšanje pristupa znanju i resursima, čime se otvaraju nove mogućnosti za suradnju i inovacije u različitim sektorima. Ove implikacije sugeriraju potrebu za daljnjim istraživanjem i razvojem tehnologija koje će dodatno unaprijediti učinkovitost komunikacijskih procesa.The subject of this paper is the analysis of information dissemination through machine translation, with a particular emphasis on the technologies that support this process. Machine translation serves as a crucial tool in modern communication, facilitating rapid and efficient transfer of information across different languages and cultures. The motivation for studying this topic arises from the increasing need for effective communication and information exchange in a globalized world, where the speed and accuracy of information are paramount, especially in the contexts of scientific communication, healthcare, and education. The research methodology involves analyzing a specific text input into existing machine translation tools, followed by a comparison of the results obtained from selected tools. The key findings indicate that modern machine translation tools, particularly those based on deep learning, have significantly improved the quality of automatic translations, thereby opening the door to broader applications across various sectors, including science, healthcare, and education. This technology not only enhances access to information but also fosters global collaboration by reducing language barriers and improving mutual understanding. The main conclusion of this study highlights that the integration of machine translation into information dissemination processes is essential for enhancing access to knowledge and resources, thereby creating new opportunities for collaboration and innovation across different sectors. These implications underscore the necessity for further research and development of technologies that will enhance the efficiency of communication processes
Prikaz muških i ženskih ubojica u odabranim djelima Agathe Christie
Detective fiction, the sub-genre of crime fiction, has always provoked an intense interest among the readers and served them as a leisure activity, especially the works of Agatha Christie known as the “Queen of Crime.” Since many scholars, critics and academics tend to focus more on the figures of Agatha Christie’s most famous detectives Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple and less on her fictional villains, this master’s thesis deals with different portrayals of male and female murderers in the selected novels of Agatha Christie: And Then There Were None, The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, Lord Edgware Dies and Appointment with Death. The paper offers an insight into the historical and social context of interwar Britain, specifically from 1918 to 1939, in order to understand the period in which the novels were written. The changes after the First World War were also reflected in shifting or renegotiating traditional gender roles, especially those of women who began to participate more actively in the male-dominated English society. This thesis aims to analyse how Agatha Christie’s male and female murderers both conform to and challenge gender norms, revealing the complex interplay of power, gender identity, and societal expectations in the context of detective fiction during the interwar period.Detektivska fikcija, podžanr kriminalističke fikcije, oduvijek je izazivala snažan interes među čitateljima i služila im kao oblik razonode, posebno djela Agathe Christie poznate kao “Kraljica krimića.” S obzirom na to da mnogi učenjaci, kritičari i akademici često više pažnje posvećuju najpoznatijim detektivima Agathe Christie, Herculeu Poirotu i Miss Marple, a manje njezinim fiktivnim zlikovcima, ovaj diplomski rad bavi se različitim prikazima muških i ženskih ubojica u odabranim romanima Agathe Christie: And Then There Were None, The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, Lord Edgware Dies i Appointment with Death. Rad nudi uvid u povijesni i društveni kontekst Velike Britanije između dva svjetska rata, posebno u razdoblju od 1918. do 1939. godine, kako bi se razumio period u kojem su romani napisani. Promjene nakon Prvog svjetskog rata također su se odrazile u pomicanju ili pregovaranju tradicionalnih rodnih uloga, osobito uloga žena koje su počele aktivnije sudjelovati u engleskom društvu kojim dominiraju muškarci. Cilj ovog diplomskog rada je analizirati kako muški i ženski ubojice Agathe Christie istovremeno slijede i izazivaju rodne norme, otkrivajući složenu interakciju moći, rodnog identiteta i društvenih očekivanja u kontekstu detektivske fikcije tijekom međuratnog razdoblja
Linguistic diversity in national parks: Analysis of tourist texts and their translation quality on the official websites of three national parks in Croatia
Das Ziel der Diplomarbeit besteht darin, die Herausforderungen bei der Übersetzung von touristischen Texten anhand von drei Nationalparks in Kroatien zu beleuchten. Die für die Forschung verwendete Methodologie ist gemischt. Einerseits befasst sich der quantitative Teil der Forschung mit der sprachlichen Vielfalt auf den offiziellen Internetseiten aller acht kroatischen Nationalparks. Es wird angenommen, dass Nationalparks einen zwei- oder mehrsprachigen Ansatz bevorzugen, um ihre potenziellen BesucherInnen über ihre digitalen Kommunikationskanäle anzusprechen, anstatt den einsprachigen. Andererseits beschäftigt sich der qualitative Teil mit Fehlern, die bei der Übersetzungstätigkeit im Bereich des Tourismus entstehen. Der Schwerpunkt liegt jedoch auf der kulturell bedingten Übersetzung (Realienübersetzung), weil sich die Arbeit mit der Komplexität der kulturellen Kontakte und der Verwendung von Fremdsprachen in der Kommunikation in der Tourismusbranche befasst. Darüber hinaus wird davon ausgegangen, dass die Qualität der übersetzten Texte in deutscher Sprache in den digitalen Broschüren der Nationalparks Plitvicer Seen, Nord Velebit und Paklenica verbessert werden kann. Dabei wird betont, dass sowohl gute als auch schlechte Übersetzungen die Meinung der LeserInnen über ein touristisches Unternehmen prägen können, wie Federici (2007) erklärt: „Die Übersetzung ist eine Landkarte der Welt, die die TouristInnen entdecken werden; eine Landkarte muss klar sein, um nützlich zu sein, aber sie muss auch anziehend sein“.Diplomski rad ima za cilj rasvijetliti izazove prevođenja turističkih tekstova na temelju triju nacionalnih parkova u Hrvatskoj. Mješovita metodologija korištena je u svrhe istraživanja. S jedne strane, kvantitativni je dio istraživanja usmjeren na jezičnu raznolikost na službenim mrežnim stranicama svih osam hrvatskih nacionalnih parkova. Pretpostavlja se da nacionalni parkovi preferiraju dvojezični ili višejezični pristup obraćanja potencijalnim posjetiteljima putem digitalnih komunikacijskih kanala umjesto jednojezičnog. S druge strane, kvalitativni se dio istraživanja bavi pogreškama koje se pojavljuju tijekom prevođenja na njemački jezik u području turizma. Ipak, posebna pažnja pridaje se prijevodu vezanom uz kulturu, odnosno prijevodu realija, jer se rad bavi kompleksnošću kulturnih kontakata i upotrebom stranih jezika u komunikaciji u turističkoj industriji. Nadalje, pretpostavlja se da se kvaliteta tekstova prevedenih na njemački jezik u digitalnim brošurama nacionalnih parkova Plitvička jezera, Sjeverni Velebit i Paklenica može poboljšati. Svrha je rada naglasiti kako dobri, ali i loši prijevodi mogu oblikovati mišljenje čitatelja o turističkom objektu jer, kako navodi Federici (2007): „Prijevod je karta svijeta koju će turisti otkriti; karta mora biti jasna da bi bila korisna, ali bi trebala biti i privlačna.”The goal of the thesis is to shed light on the challenges of translating tourism texts based on three national parks in Croatia. The methodology used for the research is mixed. On the one hand, the quantitative part of the research focuses on the linguistic diversity on the official websites of all eight Croatian national parks. It is assumed that national parks prefer a bilingual or multilingual approach to address their potential visitors through their digital communication channels rather than the monolingual one. On the other hand, the qualitative part concerns errors that occur in translation into the German language in the field of tourism. However, the focus is on the culture-bound translation (translation of realia) because the paper deals with the complexity of cultural contacts and the use of foreign languages in communication in the tourism industry. Furthermore, it is assumed that the quality of the translated texts in German language in the digital brochures of the Plitvice Lakes, North Velebit and Paklenica National Parks can be improved. The aim is to emphasize that both good and bad translations can shape the reader's opinion of a tourism enterprise because, as Federici (2007) states, „The translation is a map of the world that the tourist will discover; a map must be clear to be useful, but it should also be appealing”
The importance of cooperation between kindergartens and the local community in the implementation of the early childhood and preschool curriculum
Predmet istraživanja diplomskoga rada jest važnost suradnje ustanova ranog i predškolskog odgoja s lokalnom zajednicom u provedbi kurikuluma ranog i predškolskog odgoja. Poznato je da se djeca razvijaju u obiteljskom okruženju, institucionalnom te okruženju društvene zajednice kojoj pripadaju. Sama suradnja s obiteljima ključna je za stvaranje poticajnog okruženja u kojem djeca mogu razvijati sve svoje potencijale. Kurikulum za rani i predškolski odgoj i obrazovanje temelji se na vrijednostima kao što su znanje, identitet, humanizam, tolerancija, odgovornost, autonomija te kreativnost. Stoga, uključivanje obitelji i zajednice u rad ustanove bitno osnažuje ove vrijednosti jačajući kvalitetu rada te vrtićki kurikulum. Jedino vrtić usmjeren na zajednicu, koji jača interakcije i koristi resurse zajednice, omogućuje djeci kvalitetan i smislen prostor za učenje i cjelovit rast. Pri tome su od ključne važnosti odgojiteljske kompetencije i njegova senzibilnost za aktivno sudjelovanje u zajednici, jer jedino odgojitelj koji aktivno sudjeluje u zajednici i koristi resurse koje ista daje razvija spremnost za partnerske odnose s obitelji i zajednicom. Suradnja s lokalnom zajednicom je ključna za doprinos raznim aspektima kvalitete ustanove, uključujući obrazovne programe, profesionalni razvoj odgojitelja, aktivno uključivanje roditelja te kulturne i društvene aktivnosti. Sve ove komponente zajedno čine ustanovu prepoznatljivom u zajednici. Suradnja koja uključuje obitelji i iskorištava lokalne resurse ne samo da obogaćuje kurikulum i pedagoški pristup, već i promiče razvoj djece kao aktivnih i odgovornih članova zajednice. Stoga, predškolske ustanove koje aktivno surađuju s lokalnom zajednicom postaju središte učenja i rasta, pružajući djeci temelje za cjeloživotno učenje i osobni razvoj.The thesis addresses the topic of cooperation between early childhood and preschool education institutions and the local community. It is well-known that children develop within the family environment, institutional settings, and the social community to which they belong. The cooperation with families is crucial for creating a stimulating environment in which children can develop their full potential. The curriculum for early childhood and preschool education is based on values such as knowledge, identity, humanism, tolerance, responsibility, autonomy, and creativity. Therefore, the inclusion of family and the community in the work of the institution significantly strengthens these values, enhancing the quality of work and the kindergarten curriculum. Only a kindergarten oriented towards the community, which strengthens interactions and uses community resources, enables children to have a quality and meaningful space for learning and holistic growth. In this, the educator's competencies and sensitivity for active participation in the community are of crucial importance, as only an educator who actively participates in the community and uses the resources it provides develops readiness for partnership relations with parents and the community. Cooperation with the local community is essential as it contributes to various aspects of the institution's quality, including educational programs, professional development of educators, active involvement of parents, as well as cultural and social activities. All these components together make the institution recognizable in the community. Cooperation that involves families and utilizes local resources not only enriches the curriculum and pedagogical approach but also promotes the development of children as active and responsible members of the community. Therefore, preschools that actively cooperate with the local community become centers of learning and growth, providing children with the foundations for lifelong learning and personal development
