Objemi me z zgodbo
No full textOtroci pogosto ne vedo, kako se odzvati na čustva, pri odzivu pa jim lahko pomagajo tudi slikanice. Vzgojiteljice in seveda v prvi vrsti starši zmorejo s kakovostno literarno zgodbo razvijati čustveno inteligenco in socialne veščine otrok. Osnova za analizo pomena slikanic za čustveno opismenjevanje so kakovostne slikanice, v katerih odkrivamo, kako spodbuditi najmlajše, da s pomočjo živalskega in rastlinskega sveta spoznajo različna čustva, ki jih prevevajo, in kako se z njimi spopasti. Zagotovo je najlepše in najprijaznejše, če jih izrazijo s pomočjo besedila in ilustracij, ki jih nagovarjajo v slikanicah. V prispevku izpostavimo nekaj poučnih slikanic, ki z zgodbami na igriv način pomagajo otroku razvijati čustveno inteligenco in empatijo ter poimenovati različna čustva in občutke, poleg tega pa se dotaknemo tudi vrste čustev.Children are often unsure how to respond to emotions, and picture books can play an important role in supporting them. Educators—and, first and foremost, parents—can foster the development of children’s emotional intelligence and social skills through quality literary narratives. This article is based on an analysis of highquality picture books that reveal ways to encourage young children to explore their emotions—using images from the world of animals and plants—and to learn how to understand and manage them. One of the most effective and engaging approaches is through illustrations and texts that resonate with children in picture books. The article also highlights several picture books that, through playful storytelling, help children develop emotional intelligence and empathy, and identify and name various emotions and feelings. In addition, the article briefly addresses different types of emotions
Ko trčita tradicija in detradicionalizacija: analiza seksualnosti in z njo povezanih čustev v dramskem besedilu Bele rakete lete na Amsterdam Vitomila Zupana
No full textVitomil Zupan v dramskem besedilu Bele rakete lete na Amsterdam tematizira družbene procese, ki v začetku sedemdesetih let prejšnjega stoletja pretresajo tradicionalne načine življenja, predvsem partnerske in seksualne. V prispevku se z literarno interpretacijo in sociološko ter literarnovedno analizo osredotočamo na seksualnost in z njo povezana čustva. Ugotavljamo, da sintezo vseh ravni konflikta v dramskem besedilu predstavlja trk med tradicijo in detradicionalizacijo, ki ga dramatik ob asistenci čustev (strah, sram, gnus, neugodje idr.) in čustvenih stanj (afekti: groza, panika) ubeseduje z družbenimi pričakovanji (družinsko življenje, zakonska zveza) in osebnimi željami vsake dramske osebe (individualizacija seksualnosti in liberalizacija seksualne želje).In his play Bele rakete lete na Amsterdam (White Rockets Fly toward Amsterdam), Vitomil Zupan thematizes the social processes that shake up traditional ways of life, especially those of partnership and sex, at the beginning of the 1970s. This article focuses on sexuality and the emotions associated with it through literary interpretation and sociological and literary analysis. It concludes that the synthesis of all levels of conflict in the dramatic text is represented by the clash between tradition and detraditionalization, which the playwright, assisted by emotions (fear, shame, disgust, discomfort, etc.) and emotional states (affects: horror and panic), formulates in terms of social expectations (family life and marriage) and the personal desires of each character (individualization of sexuality and liberalization of sexual desire)
Accuracy of wearables for determining the maximal oxygen uptake and lactate threshold
No full textIntroduction: The limitations of costly laboratory methods could be addressed by advances in wearable sensors and associated machine learning algorithms (13). Key advantages of wearable technologies (WT) include non-invasive and continuous monitoring. However, it is necessary to control and ensure their accuracy. The aim of this review was to analyze and systematically summarize recent studies on the validity of maximal oxygen uptake (V̇O) and lactate threshold (LT) as estimated by consumer wearables.
Methods: The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were followed in preparing this review. The literature was systematically searched in the Web of Science, SPORTDiscus, and Medline databases. The risk of bias was assessed using the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies, version 2, tool.
Results: Of the 252 records initially identified, 13 studies met the defined inclusion criteria. Most studies investigated Garmin smartwatches with compatible chest belt heart rate (HR) sensors and the Firstbeat Technologies algorithm. V̇O was measured in all cases in the laboratory with a treadmill graded exercise test (GXT), while estimations were generated from submaximal outdoor runs. Studies with healthy untrained adults, recreational athletes and highly trained or professional athletes were equally represented. In seven studies wearable devices proved to be valid or acceptable for V̇O estimation compared to the gold standard measurement. Three studies demonstrated validity of LT estimation.
Discussion: Our review demonstrates valid estimations of V̇O using WT in populations of healthy untrained adults, recreational athletes and team sports professional athletes. Usefulness in elite endurance sports is questionable and may depend on artificial intelligence (AI). Two or more submaximal runs as an index test could improve validity, but further examination is needed. An important finding is that valid estimations were calculated from submaximal tests. These make consumer wearables a user-friendly alternative to laboratory GXT, which has some limitations. To provide insight into stability of algorithms, there is a need for longitudinal studies that would monitor the accuracy of WT over months or even years. Ongoing research into the latest models of smartwatches and synthesis of data is critical to understanding their suitability and usefulness
Spodbujanje socialnega in čustvenega učenja predšolskih otrok z izvajanjem glasbenih dejavnosti v dnevni rutini
No full textIn the context of kindergarten, the daily routine includes various activities aimed at the holistic development of children. Carrying out musical activities in the daily routine plays an important role in encouraging social and emotional learning. For the present research, which included preschool children, we developed a plan for implementing elements of the children’s daily routine enriched with musical activities, monitored the effect of this routine on social and emotional skills, and verified the realisation of the planned musical goals. The results of the research confirmed the effect of implementing musical activities regarding (1) self-awareness and self-management – children more often recognised their own emotions, they became aware of their emotions and regulated them, they expressed a feeling of joy, respected the agreed rules, understood what is right or wrong and asked for help if they needed itand (2) social skills for establishing relationships and social awareness – children more often encouraged other children in the group to participate in activities, they successfully participated in common activities, shared things with other children, and recognised and empathised with the emotions of other children. Most of the children were also successful in achieving the planned musical goals.V vrtcu dnevna rutina vključuje različne dejavnosti, ki so namenjene celostnemu razvoju otrok. Izvajanje glasbenih dejavnosti kot del dnevne rutine ima pomembno vlogo pri spodbujanju socialnega in čustvenega učenja. V raziskavi, v katero smo vključili predšolske otroke, smo oblikovali načrt izvedbe elementov dnevne rutine, obogatene z glasbenimi dejavnostmi, spremljali učinek izvajanja dnevne rutine na razvoj socialnih in čustvenih veščin ter preverili uresničevanje načrtovanih glasbenih ciljev. Izsledki raziskave so potrdili učinek izvajanja glasbenih dejavnosti na področju 1) samozavedanja in samokontrole – otroci so pogosteje prepoznavali lastna čustva, jih ozaveščali in uravnavali, izražali veselje, spoštovali dogovorjena pravila, razumeli, kaj je prav in kaj narobe, ter prosili za pomoč, če so jo potrebovali, in na področju 2) socialnih veščin za vzpostavljanje odnosov in socialnega samozavedanja – otroci so pogosteje spodbujali k dejavnostim druge otroke v skupini, se uspešno vključevali v skupno delo, delili stvari z drugimi otroki ter prepoznavali čustva drugih otrok in se vanje vživljali. Večina otrok je bilo uspešna tudi pri doseganju načrtovanih glasbenih ciljev
Pripravljenost slovenske javne uprave na uvedbo umetne inteligence: primer organov državne uprave
No full textThe Slovenian public administration has adopted Artificial Intelligence (AI) strategies, yet its operational readiness for AI adoption remains uncertain. This thesis assessed AI readiness within Slovenia’s state administration bodies and aimed to synthesise established frameworks into a multi-dimensional readiness profile, identify key gaps and barriers, and contextualise Slovenia internationally through comparison with selected countries.
A mixed-methods research strategy with a convergent parallel design was employed, combining a quantitative structured survey of the heads of state administration bodies with qualitative analysis of open-ended responses and relevant strategic documents. This design provided measurable insights alongside an in-depth contextual understanding of AI readiness.
Findings indicated a moderate yet imbalanced level of readiness, creating a willing but unable posture. A supportive organisational culture with a high willingness to innovate was undermined by pronounced deficiencies in key capabilities, notably technological infrastructure, workforce skills, and clear strategic as well as legal-regulatory guidance.
No statistically significant differences in overall AI readiness were found between types of state administration bodies, suggesting that challenges were systemic and widespread. International benchmarking showed that Slovenia remained mid-pack and behind the frontrunners, with the 2019–2024 trend mixed rather than steadily improving.
In practical terms, the study underscores the need for a co-ordinated, whole-of-government approach. It recommends centralised initiatives, such as shared technical infrastructure, targeted training programmes, and clear regulatory guidance in order to bridge readiness gaps efficiently and enable consistent, effective AI adoption across the public sector.Slovenska javna uprava je sprejela strateške usmeritve na področju umetne inteligence (UI), vendar njena pripravljenost na uvedbo UI ostaja negotova. Magistrsko delo je ocenilo pripravljenost organov državne uprave na uvedbo UI. Namen raziskave je bil zagotoviti diagnostično podlago za odločevalce in vodstva, da lahko bolje usmerjajo politike in upravljavske ukrepe ter umestijo slovensko stanje v mednarodni kontekst.
Raziskava je uporabila mešani raziskovalni pristop s konvergentno vzporedno zasnovo, ki je združeval kvantitativno anketo med predstojniki organov državne uprave ter kvalitativno tematsko analizo odgovorov in relevantnih dokumentov. Tak pristop je zagotovil merljive vpoglede in poglobljeno razumevanje pripravljenosti na uvedbo UI.
Ugotovitve so pokazale zmerno, a neuravnoteženo raven pripravljenosti, kar je ustvarilo stanje pripravljenosti, toda obenem nezmožnosti. Podporna organizacijska kultura je bila oslabljena zaradi izrazitih pomanjkljivosti v ključnih zmogljivostih, zlasti v tehnološki infrastrukturi, znanju delovne sile in jasnih strateških ter pravno-regulativnih smernicah.
Med vrstami državnih organov statistično značilnih razlik v pripravljenosti na UI ni bilo, kar kaže na sistemsko naravo izzivov. Mednarodna primerjava je pokazala, da je Slovenija ostajala v sredini primerjalne skupine in za vodilnimi državami, pri čemer je bil trend v obdobju 2019–2024 mešan in ni izkazoval stalnega napredka.
Praktični pomen raziskave je v potrebi po usklajenem, celovitem pristopu na ravni državne uprave. Namesto razdrobljenih prizadevanj posameznih organov raziskava priporoča centralizirane pobude, kot so vzpostavitev skupne tehnične infrastrukture, ciljani programi usposabljanja in jasna regulativna podpora, da se učinkovito premostijo vrzeli v pripravljenosti. Tak pristop naslavlja sistemske vrzeli in omogoča bolj enotno ter učinkovito uvedbo UI v državni upravi
Kontinuirno bioprocesništvo za proizvodnjo rekombinantnih proteinov v Bacillus subtilis
No full textThe Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis has long been used for industrial protein production owing to its well-characterised genetic background, capacity for high-density fermentation, and effective protein secretion. With the growing global demand for recombinant proteins across various sectors, there is an increasing need for more efficient and sustainable protein production methods. This review explores the application of continuous bioprocessing for recombinant protein production using B. subtilis, critically evaluating current technologies and discussing their potential for integration into streamlined, integrated biomanufacturing framework. We primarily focus on transgenic B. subtilis, however the solutions for continuous fermentation and protein isolation/purification are the same for both endogenous and heterologous (i.e., recombinant) proteins.Po Gramu pozitivno bakterijo Bacillus subtilis že dolgo uporabljamo v industrijski proizvodnji proteinov. K temu prispevajo njena dobra raziskana genetska zasnova, možnost doseganja visoke biomase med fermentacijo in učinkovito izločanje proteinov. Zaradi naraščajočega svetovnega povpraševanja po rekombinantnih proteinih v različnih sektorjih, se povečuje tudi potreba po učinkovitejših in trajnostnih metodah proizvodnje proteinov. V članku predstavljamo potencial kontinuirnega bioprocesništva pri proizvodnji rekombinantnih proteinov z uporabo B. subtilis. Ponujamo pregled obstoječih tehnologij in njihovega potenciala za vključitev v integrirani koncept učinkovitejše bioproizvodnje rekombinantnih proteinov. Čeprav se prispevek primarno posveča transgenim bakterijam B. subtilis, so rešitve kontinuirne fermentacije in izolacije/čiščenja proteinov enake za endogene in heterologne (tj. rekombinantne) proteine
Ponotranjena neoliberalna ideologija in stališče do beguncev
No full textThe article aims to draw attention to neoliberal ideology and to examine if the set of values, beliefs, and practices it promotes, correlate to the individuals’ negative attitude towards refugees. For this purpose, I developed two questionnaires: the Internalized Neoliberal Ideology Scale (INIS) and the Attitude Towards Refugees Scale (ATRS)their development is detailly described in the article. As neoliberalism permeates all areas of human life in the developed and developing world, it is becoming more and more internalized to the point that we accept it as common sense. I wondered if internalizing the principles of neoliberalism (i.e., advocacy of deregulation and privatization), which promote increased self-interest, competition, and the pursuit of profit, decreases the level of empathy and acceptance of refugees and encourages harsher treatment of refugees, i.e., denying them refuge, adequate living conditions, and social welfare. Questionnaires were completed online by 166 participants, aged 19 to 65, approximately half men and half women. The results show that negative attitude towards refugees is statistically significantly correlated with internalized neoliberal ideology. Therefore, if we want to preserve and promote compassion for those who need help, we must also consider the influence of political-economic factors on the individual’s attitude.Namen članka je opozoriti na neoliberalno ideologijo in preveriti, ali je sklop vrednot, prepričanj in praks, ki jih spodbuja, povezan z negativnim stališčem posameznikov do beguncev. V ta namen sem razvila dva vprašalnika: Lestvico ponotranjene neoliberalne ideologije (INIS) in Lestvico stališča do beguncev (ATRS)njun razvoj je podrobno opisan v članku. Ker neoliberalizem prodira na vsa področja človekovega življenja v razvitem in razvijajočem se svetu, postaja vse bolj ponotranjen - do te mere, da ga sprejemamo kot zdravorazumskega. Zanimalo me je, ali ponotranjenje načel neoliberalizma (npr. zagovarjanje deregulacije in privatizacije), ki spodbujajo povečan interes zase, tekmovanje z drugimi in zasledovanje dobička, zmanjšuje raven empatije in sprejemanja beguncev ter spodbuja strožje ravnanje z begunci, tj. odrekanje zatočišča, ustreznih življenjskih pogojev in socialne varnosti. Vprašalnike je prek spleta izpolnilo 166 udeležencev, starih od 19 do 65 let, približno polovica moških in polovica žensk. Rezultati kažejo, da se negativno stališče do beguncev statistično pomembno povezuje s ponotranjeno neoliberalno ideologijo. Če torej želimo ohraniti in spodbujati sočutje do tistih, ki potrebujejo pomoč, moramo upoštevati tudi vpliv politično-ekonomskih dejavnikov na posameznikova stališča
Vonjave kot pripovedno sredstvo v izbranih delih Toneta Partljiča
No full textPrispevek raziskuje vlogo vonjav v izbranih delih Toneta Partljiča, s poudarkom na drami Moj ata, socialistični kulak (1984), spominskih črticah Slišal sem, kako trava raste (1990) in avtobiografskem romanu Pesnica (2019). Analiza se osredotoča na transformacijo vonjalnih motivov med različnimi mediji in časovnimi obdobji, prehodu od družbenokritične vloge vonjav v zgodnejših delih do njihove vloge kot mostov med preteklostjo in sedanjostjo v poznejšem ustvarjanju.This article examines the role of smell in selected works by Tone Partljič, focusing on the play Moj ata, socialistični kulak (My Father, the Socialist Kulak1984), the memoir Slišal sem, kako trava raste (I Heard the Grass Grow1990), and the autobiographical novel Pesnica (2019). The analysis focuses on the transformation of olfactory motifs across media and time periods, and the transition from the sociocritical role of smells in Partljič’s earlier works to their function as a bridge between the past and present in his later writing
