Infectious rash diseases in preschool age
No full textZbog njihove prečeste pojave i mogućnosti komplikacija, zarazne osipne bolesti su veliki izazov u zdravstvu za djecu predškolske dobi. Osnovna teorijska pozadina ovog rada je shvaćanje temeljnih karakteristika, mehanizama širenja, kliničkih simptoma kao i prevencija i liječenje takvih bolesti. Najvažniji cilj rada je da pruži sveobuhvatni prikaz najbitnijih zaraznih osipnih bolesti kod djece predškolske dobi, ukazuju i na glavne simptome i metode dijagnostike, a također naglašava važnost cijepljenja i drugih preventivnih mjera u kontroli ovih bolesti. Najznačajniji rezultati ove studije uključuju detaljan opis najčešćih zaraznih osipnih bolesti poput ospica, vodenih kozica, šarlaha, rubeole i pete bolesti. U ovom radu se istražuju i epidemiološki podaci, faktori rizika te načini prenošenja tih bolesti unutar predškolskih ustanova. Puno pažnje usmjereno je na kliničku sliku i dijagnozu s tipičnim simptomima i znakovima koji pomažu u razlučivanju tih bolesti. Liječenje se koncentrira na nešto simptomatsko, specifične terapeutske mjere i ulogu antibiotika gdje je to primjenjivo. U zaključku rada, važno je naglasiti da pravovremeno prepoznavanje i liječenje zaraznih osipnih bolesti koriste kako bi se izbjegle komplikacije i osiguralo zdravlje djece. Prema tome, mora postojati stalni napor kako bi se stvorila edukacija i suradnja između roditelja, zdravstvene radnike i odgajatelje kako bi se postigla učinkovita kontrola zarazne bolesti. Kao rezultat, ovaj će rad pružiti temeljno znanje za buduća istraživanja i praksu koja će se koristiti u predškolskoj dobi za prevenciju i liječenje ovih bolesti.Due to their frequent occurrence and the possibility of complications, infectious rash diseases are a great challenge in healthcare for children of preschool age.

Gender differences in the nutritional status of children attending preschool
No full textDjeca u ranoj i predškolskoj dobi vrlo su osjetljiva na nagle fizičke i psihičke promjene kroz koje prolaze pod utjecajem okoline. Ključno je stoga da roditelji i odgojitelji pažljivo prate njihov rast i razvoj kako bi spriječili negativne posljedice sve izraženijeg nezdravog stila života. Velik broj djece i mladih suočava se s problemima pretilosti i pothranjenosti do kojih dolazi zbog nezdrave prehrane i nedostatka tjelesne aktivnosti koja je je izrazito važna u ranom i predškolskom periodu. U tom razdoblju djeca razvijaju svoje motoričke i funkcionalne sposobnosti te ih je potrebno poticati na vježbanje i uravnoteženi pristup prehrani.
Cilj je ovog završnog rada istražiti postojanje razlika u prehrambenom statusu između dječaka i djevojčica predškolske dobi. U skladu s tim ciljem, provedeno je istraživanje kako bi se utvrdile moguće i stvarne razlike u antropometrijskim karakteristikama između spolova. Istraživanje je obuhvatilo uzorak od četrdeset četvero djece s namjerom podizanja svijesti o razlikama u stanju uhranjenosti i prikaza rezultata indeksa tjelesne mase (ITM), odnosno broja djece s normalnom tjelesnom masom, kao i onih koji su pothranjeni ili pretili. U istraživanju su sudjelovale tri odgojno-obrazovne skupine jednog zagrebačkog vrtića, odnosno 6 dječaka i 6 djevojčica u dobi dvije do tri godine, 6 djevojčica i 6 dječaka u dobi od tri do četiri godine te 10 djevojčica i 10 dječaka u dobi od pet do sedam godina.
U ovom istraživanju analizirane su dvije antropometrijske karakteristike - tjelesna masa i visina. Na temelju tih podataka izračunat je indeks tjelesne mase (ITM) i percentili (ITMper) koji omogućuju procjenu i uvid u tjelesni razvoj svakog djeteta. Podaci su obrađeni korištenjem programskog alata Microsoft Office Excel te je izračunata deskriptivna statistika (prosječna vrijednost, minimalna i maksimalna vrijednost, standardna devijacija). Statistička obrada podataka i t-test, koji je napravljen u programu Statistica 14, ne ukazuju na statistički značajne spolne razlike u statusima uhranjenosti djece.Children in early and preschool age are very sensitive to sudden physical and psychological changes they undergo under the influence of the environment. Therefore, it is crucial that parents and educators carefully supervise their growth and development to prevent the negative consequences of increasingly unhealthy lifestyles. A large number of children and young people face problems of obesity and undernourishment caused by unhealthy diets and lack of physical activity which is extremely important in early and preschool periods. During this time, children develop their motor and functional skills, and it is essential to encourage them to exercise and have a more balanced approach to nutrition.
The aim of this thesis is to examine the presence of differences in nutritional status between preschool boys and girls. The study was conducted to determine possible and actual differences in anthropometric characteristics between genders. The research included a sample of forty-four children with the intention of raising awareness about differences in nutritional status and presenting the results of the Body Mass Index (BMI), i.e., the number of children with normal body weight, as well as those who are underweight or obese. The study involved three educational groups from a kindergarten in Zagreb, consisting of 6 boys and 6 girls aged two to three years, 6 boys and 6 girls aged three to four years, and 10 boys and 10 girls aged five to seven years.
In this study, two anthropometric characteristics were analyzed - body weight and height. Based on these data, the Body Mass Index (BMI) and percentiles (BMIper) were calculated to assess and understand the physical development of each child. The data was processed using the Microsoft Office Excel software, and descriptive statistics (average value, minimum and maximum value, standard deviation) were calculated. Statistical data analysis and the t-test, conducted using Statistica 14, do not indicate statistically significant gender differences in the nutritional status of children

No full textOvaj rad istražuje važnost prirodoslovne edukacije u ranom i predškolskom obrazovanju, naglašavajući značaj igre u prirodi kao ključne metode učenja. Analizirani su različiti aspekti znanstvene pismenosti i njen utjecaj na kognitivni, socijalni i emocionalni razvoj djece. Istaknuto je da rano izlaganje djece znanstvenim fenomenima kroz igru i istraživanje potiče njihovu znatiželju, kritičko mišljenje i kreativnost. Aktivnosti na otvorenom, prilagođene interesima djece, omogućuju im da razviju motoričke vještine, samopouzdanje i sposobnost suradnje. Poseban naglasak stavljen je na prilagodbu aktivnosti uvjetima okoline i refleksiju nakon aktivnosti, što djeci pomaže da konsolidiraju nova znanja i iskustva. Sigurno okruženje, poticanje radoznalosti, interaktivnost i suradnja ključni su elementi uspješnog prirodoslovnog obrazovanja. Kroz ovakav pristup, djeca razvijaju ljubav prema učenju i istraživanju, pripremajući se za buduće akademske i životne izazove. Rad također ističe potrebu za kontinuiranim ulaganjima u rano znanstveno obrazovanje kako bi se osigurao skladan razvoj djece i njihova spremnost za život u suvremenom društvu.This paper explores the importance of scientific education in early childhood and preschool education, emphasizing the significance of outdoor play as a key learning method. Various aspects of scientific literacy and its impact on children's cognitive, social, and emotional development are analyzed. It highlights that early exposure to scientific phenomena through play and exploration stimulates curiosity, critical thinking, and creativity in children. Outdoor activities, tailored to children's interests, allow them to develop motor skills, self-confidence, and cooperation skills. Special emphasis is placed on adapting activities to environmental conditions and reflection after activities, helping children consolidate new knowledge and experiences. A safe environment, encouragement of curiosity, interactivity, and collaboration are crucial elements of successful scientific education. Through this approach, children develop a love for learning and exploration, preparing them for future academic and life challenges. The paper also underscores the need for continuous investment in early scientific education to ensure the harmonious development of children and their readiness for life in modern society
Children's Rights In The Croatian And Norwegian Curriculum
No full textDječja prava su kroz povijest postepeno dobivala na značaju, a i sam pogled na dijete se isto tako mijenjao. Donošenjem Konvencije o pravima djece 20. studenog 1989. godine od strane Ujedinjenih naroda, utemeljena su dječja prava koja možemo podijeliti na prava preživljavanja, razvojna prava, zaštitna prava i prava sudjelovanja. Svaka od te skupine sadrži dječja prava koja su neophodna za pravilan razvoj djeteta uključujući mnoge aspekte, roditelje, okolinu u kojoj dijete živi i boravi te sve osobe sa kojima se dijete susreće tijekom svog razvoja. Vrtić kao ustanova u kojoj dijete provodi svoje prve i najvažnije godine svog života, dužan je usmjeriti pogled na dobrobit djeteta te mu omogućiti neometano provođenje njegovih prava kako bi dijete bilo sigurno. Svi djelatnici vrtića kao takvog, a najviše odgojitelji, dužni su poznavati dječja prava. Vrtić bi za svako dijete trebao biti pozitivno i poticajno mjesto gdje će ono steći razna znanja i vještine ali i naučiti svoja prava koja ga štite sve do njegove punoljetnosti. Ovaj rad pruža uvid u sama dječja prava, Konvenciju o dječjim pravima te uvid u kurikulume za rani i predškolski odgoj i obrazovanje u Hrvatskoj i Norveškoj. Kroz gotovo cijeli rad, ističe se važnost dječjih prava u svakome pogledu te se nastoji naglasiti iz kojeg su razloga prava djece potrebna i kako ih na pravilan način provoditi te poštivati za dobrobit djece i njihov pravilan rast i razvoj. Cilj ovog rada je uvidjeti i razlike između kurikuluma za rani i predškolski odgoj i obrazovanje u Hrvatskoj i Norveškoj te kako te razlike utječu na djecu i njihova prava.Children's rights have progressively gained importance throughout history, and the perception of childhood has similarly evolved. The adoption of the Convention on the Rights of the Child on November 20, 1989, by the United Nations, formally established children's rights, which can be categorized into survival rights, developmental rights, protection rights, and participation rights. Each of these categories encompasses rights that are crucial for the optimal development of the child, taking into account various aspects such as parental influence, the environment in which the child resides, and all individuals the child interacts with throughout their developmental stages. Kindergarten, as an institution where children spend their formative and most critical years, has the responsibility to prioritize the child's welfare and to facilitate the full realization of their rights, ensuring their safety and security. All personnel within the kindergarten, particularly educators, must possess a thorough understanding of children's rights. Kindergartens should serve as nurturing and empowering environments where children acquire essential knowledge and skills while also being educated about their rights, which safeguard them until they reach adulthood. This thesis provides an in-depth examination of children's rights, the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and a comparative analysis of early childhood education curricula in Croatia and Norway. Emphasis is placed on the critical importance of children's rights across all dimensions, underscoring the rationale behind the necessity of these rights and exploring the proper methods of their implementation and enforcement to ensure the well-being and holistic development of children. The objective of this thesis is to identify and analyze the differences between the early childhood education curricula in Croatia and Norway, as well as to assess how these variations impact children's rights and their overall development

Infectious diseases in preschool children
No full textZarazne bolesti često se javljaju među djecom rane i predškolske dobi, ali i često nas zahvaćaju tijekom života. Uzročnici zaraznih bolesti su mikroorganizmi koji se prenose različitim putevima i ulaze u tijelo kroz različite načine, poput kontaminiranih površina ili direktnog kontakta s bolesnom osobom. Važno je razumjeti kako ti mikroorganizmi djeluju u kako naš organizam reagira na njih jer to može utjecati na razvoj infekcije. Edukacija roditelja i odgajatelja o pravilnom postupanju može značajno pomoći u sprječavanju širenja zaraza među djecom. Ovaj rad ističe važnost prepoznavanja simptoma i važnost cijepljenja kao učinkovite mjere zaštite protiv zaraznih bolesti.Infectious diseases are commonly encountered among young children, and almost everyone has experienced one at some point. They are transmitted by microorganisms entering the body through various routes, such as contaminated surfaces or direct contact with an infected person. Understanding how these microorganisms operate and how our bodies respond to them is crucial as it can affect the course of infection. Educating parents and caregivers on proper protocols can significantly help prevent the spread of infections among children. This final paper emphasizes the importance of recognizing symptoms, collaboration among different institutions, and the significance of vaccination as an effective measure against infectious diseases
Metafiction in Art Spiegelman's 'Maus'
No full textThe aim of this thesis is to examine the elements of metafiction in Art Spiegelman's graphic novel Maus by analyzing and discussing the photographs, maps, diagrams, masks, internal monologues and narrative interruptions used throughout the novel. Discussed at length, these metafictive devices are analyzed not only within the strict frames of the novel's narratives, but also in the context of the time and place in which the plot is set in order to shed light on why they play such an important part in conveying the story at hand. This thesis focuses on explaining the relevance of each metafictive device in the author's process of telling his father's story about surviving the Holocaust, as well as his own story about the creation of the novel. Keeping in mind the definition of metafiction, this thesis places the emphasis on the novel's self-awareness by which the author makes the reader an active observer of and participant in his creative efforts and struggles in the making of the book. The thesis outlines how metafiction manifests on the pages of Spiegelman's graphic memoir, as well as how it affects the reader9s experience of the novel.Cilj ovog diplomskog rada je ispitati elemente metafikcije u grafičkom romanu Maus Arta Spiegelmana analiziraju i uporabu fotografija, karti, dijagrama, maski, unutarnjih monologa i prekida u pripovijedanju. Navedeni metafikcijski postupci analiziraju se ne samo unutar strogih okvira dvaju priča u romanu, već i u kontekstu vremena i mjesta u kojem se radnja odvija kako bi se rasvijetlilo zašto ti postupci igraju tako važnu ulogu u Spiegelmanovu grafičkom romanu. Ovaj rad fokusira se na objašnjavanje važnosti svakog od navedenih metafikcijskih postupaka u pripovijedanja priče autorova oca o preživljavanju holokausta, kao i njegove vlastite priče o stvaranju romana. Imaju i na umu definiciju metafikcije, ovaj rad stavlja naglasak na samosvijest romana kojom autor čini čitatelja aktivnim promatračem i sudionikom svojih kreativnih napora i borbi u stvaranju knjige. Rad prikazuje kako se metafikcija manifestira na stranicama Spiegelmanova grafičkog memoara, ali i njezin utjecaj na čitateljevo iskustvo čitanja
Physical Education Pedagogy: Teacher Attitudes And Incorporation Of Movement In Primary Education
No full textU ovom se radu istražuje zastupljenost i stavovi učitelja prema fit pedagogiji, inovativnom pristupu obrazovanju koji integrira fizičku aktivnost u nastavni proces s ciljem poticanja cjelovitog razvoja učenika i zastupljenosti pokreta u primarnom obrazovanju. Fit pedagogija povezuje motorički, kognitivni, osobni, socijalni, emocionalni i tjelesni razvoj djece, naglašavajući holistički pristup u kojem se svi aspekti razvoja međusobno podržavaju. Fit pedagogija uključuje promicanje zdravlja, cjeloviti razvoj učenika te postizanje boljih obrazovnih rezultata. Istraživanje je provedeno putem ankete među 116 učitelja razredne nastave, a rezultati pokazuju da većina učitelja prepoznaje dobrobit fizičkih aktivnosti. Cilj istraživanja bio je ispitati učestalost korištenja fizičkih aktivnosti u nastavi, percepcije učitelja o utjecaju tih aktivnosti na učenike, te prepreke s kojima se suočavaju pri implementaciji fit pedagogije. Rezultati istraživanja sugeriraju da učitelji koji češće koriste fizičke aktivnosti u nastavi pozitivnije ocjenjuju njihov utjecaj na pažnju i koncentraciju učenika. Međutim, unatoč pozitivnim stavovima, učitelji se suočavaju s izazovima poput nedostatka vremena, resursa i prostora za provedbu ovih aktivnosti. Istraživanje naglašava važnost dodatne edukacije i stručnog usavršavanja učitelja u području fit pedagogije kako bi se olakšala integracija ovih praksi u svakodnevnu nastavu. Ovaj rad pruža uvid u trenutnu praksu i izazove u implementaciji fit pedagogije te nudi preporuke za njezino daljnje unaprjeđenje u osnovnim školama, s ciljem postizanja boljih obrazovnih rezultata i općeg blagostanja učenika.This paper investigates the representation and attitudes of teachers towards fit pedagogy, an innovative approach to education that integrates physical activity into the teaching process with the aim of encouraging the integral development of students and the representation of movements in primary education. Fit pedagogy connects the motor, cognitive, personal, social, emotional and physical development of children, emphasizing a holistic approach in which all aspects of development support each other. Fit pedagogy includes the promotion of health, the integral development of students and the achievement of better educational results. The research was conducted through a survey among 116 classroom teachers, and the results show that the majority of teachers recognize the benefits of physical activities. The goal of the research was to examine the frequency of use of physical activities in classes, teachers' perceptions of the impact of these activities on students, and the obstacles they face when implementing fit pedagogy. The results of the research suggest that teachers who use physical activities more often in class rate their impact on students' attention and concentration more positively. However, despite positive attitudes, teachers face challenges such as lack of time, resources and space to implement these activities. The research emphasizes the importance of additional education and professional development of teachers in the field of fit pedagogy in order to facilitate the integration of these practices into everyday teaching. This paper provides an insight into the current practice and challenges in the implementation of fit pedagogy and offers recommendations for its further improvement in primary schools, with the aim of achieving better educational results and the general well-being of students
Alcojolism In Pregnancy: Pshychological Aspects Of Child Development
No full textKonzumacija alkohola u trudnoći može imati kobne posljedice na djecu u prenatalnom i kasnijem razvoju. Majke koje konzumiraju alkohol tijekom trudnoće izlažu svoju nerođenu djecu raznim psihološkim, a i fizičkim poteškoćama u kasnijem životu. Na razvoj djeteta utječu biološki i okolinski faktori. Pod okolinske faktore spadaju socioekonomski status obitelji, utjecaj obitelji te određeni teratogeni poput kofeina, lijekova, droga, nikotina i alkohola. Najpoznatija posljedica konzumacije alkohola u trudnoći je spektar fetalnog alkoholnog sindroma ili FASD.Alcohol consumption during pregnancy can have fatal consequences for children in prenatal and later development. Mothers who consume alcohol during pregnancy expose their unborn children to various psychological and physical difficulties in later life. Biological and environmental factors have an effect on child development. Environmental factors include the socioeconomic status of the family, the influence of the family and certain teratogens such as caffeine, medications, drugs, nicotine and alcohol. The most well-known consequence of alcohol consumption during pregnancy is the spectrum of fetal alcohol syndrome or FASD
Bioethical education and its implementation in early childhood education
No full textU obrazovnom sustavu, bioetika se nameće kao ključna znanstvena disciplina koja se bavi pitanjima koja proizlaze iz života suvremenog čovjeka. Ovo interdisciplinarno podru je nije samo akademski interes, već i nužnost u sagledavanju etičkih dilema koje proizlaze iz brzih tehnoloških i društvenih promjena. Kroz odgoj i obrazovanje, izražavamo želju za oblikovanjem društva i individua u skladu s vrijednostima koje smatramo bitnima. U Republici Hrvatskoj, temelji odgojno-obrazovnog sustava promatraju se kao potencijal za razvoj nacionalnog, kulturnog i duhovnog identiteta usred kompleksnih globalizacijskih tokova. U doba sveprisutne globalizacije i brzog tehnološkog napretka, odgoj djece predstavlja izazov koji zahtijeva prilagodbu. To utječe na stilove odgoja i uvjete u kojima se odvija odgojno-obrazovni proces. Ciljevi odgoja usmjeravaju praksu pedagoškog djelovanja, postavljaju i odgojiteljima i učiteljima složene zadaće. Njihova uloga je ključna u oblikovanju budućnosti, budući da su odgovorni za prenošenje znanja, ali i oblikovanje moralnih i društvenih vrijednosti kod mladih. Neosporna je važnost inicijalnog obrazovanja odgojitelja i učitelja u današnjem kontekstu. Biti odgojitelj ili učitelj nije samo posao, već i poziv koji zahtijeva posvećenost i odgovornost. Profesionalni standardi i etička načela učiteljske profesije potiču na promicanje društvene inkluzivnosti te potrebu za njegovanjem individualnih potencijala svakog djeteta. U suštini, odgoj i obrazovanje predstavljaju ključne čimbenike u oblikovanju budućnosti društva. Kroz promišljanje i primjenu vrijednosti bioetike, te kroz posvećenost odgojitelja i učitelja, možemo stvoriti okruženje koje potiče moralni razvoj, kritičko razmišljanje i socijalnu osjetljivost kod mladih generacija, osiguravaju i tako održivu i prosperitetnu budućnost.In the educational system, bioethics emerges as a key scientific discipline dealing with issues arising from the life of contemporary humans. This interdisciplinary field is not only an academic interest but also a necessity in addressing ethical dilemmas arising from rapid technological and social changes. Through education, we express a desire to shape both society and individuals in accordance with the values we consider essential. In the Republic of Croatia, the foundations of the educational system are seen as potential for the development of national, cultural, and spiritual identity amidst complex globalization trends. In an era of pervasive globalization and rapid technological advancement, educating children poses a challenge that requires adaptation. This impacts parenting styles and the conditions in which the educational process takes place. The aims of education direct the practice of pedagogical action, placing complex tasks on educators and teachers. Their role is crucial in shaping the future, as they are responsible for transmitting knowledge as well as shaping the moral and social values of young people. The importance of initial education for educators and teachers in today's context is indisputable. Being an educator or teacher is not just a job but also a vocation that demands dedication and responsibility. Professional standards and ethical principles of the teaching profession promote social inclusivity and the need to nurture the individual potentials of each child. Essentially, education represents a key factor in shaping the future of society. Through reflection and application of the values of bioethics, and through the dedication of educators and teachers, we can create an environment that fosters moral development, critical thinking, and social sensitivity in young generations, thus ensuring a sustainable and prosperous future
