A New Vision Regarding Spatial Tensions in Urban Design
Together with the urban movements from the 1970s, the 1980s or the contemporary ones, with conflicts regarding the right to the city, social emancipation, political oppression or environmental issues, a different kind of conflict is also entangling the contemporary city: spatial tensions. It is a weaker but more persistent form of conflict happening in any city’s everyday life between opposing forces. Far away from violent conflicts and riotous surges, contemporary tensions are usually hidden, sometimes implicit or explicit: the opposing forces do not turn into a struggle but remain noiselessly and dynamically tense. Also if such a specific form of conflict is many times weak and invisible, it generates strong and relevant transformations of the city: spatial tensions are represented by minute, continuous, overlaid, dilated over time and still in progress modifications of space
INTERGENERATIONAL COOPERATION BETWEEN KINDERGARTEN ROGAŠKA SLATINA AND PEGAZ NURSING HOME ROGAŠKA SLATINA
Diplomsko delo obravnava medgeneracijsko sodelovanje med domom starejših občanov Pegazovim domom in Vrtcem Rogaška Slatina.
Medgeneracijsko sodelovanje dobiva v današnjem času vse večji pomen, kakor tudi strpnost med generacijami. Vrtec je otrokov življenjski prostor, kjer se aktivno uči in pridobiva sposobnosti za življenje ter razvija vrednote v medgeneracijski družbi. V današnjem času se sprašujemo ali družba zagotavlja ustrezno okolje za spoštovanje starejših generacij. Vzajemnost med generacijami je izrednega pomena, zato je potrebno negovati odnose med ljudmi. Velika vloga starih staršev je v današnjem času zaradi pomanjkanja časa staršev izrednega pomena.
V zgodnjem otroštvu so otroci zelo gnetljivi in je pomembnost pridobivanja moralnih vrednot prioriteta v vzgoji. Zaradi pomanjkanja časa srednjih generacij so stari starši pomemben člen v vzgoji otrok. Za razvijanje prijateljskih odnosov med generacijami ima pomembno vlogo tudi vrtec kot institucija, ob pomoči strokovnih delavcev, ki s čutom za vzgojo poskrbijo za interakcijo otrok z starejšimi občani ter s kritičnim mišljenjem zavračajo stereotipe, ki so nastali v družbi skozi čas.
Otrokov kognitivni razvoj in sposobnost empatije pri otroku ima pri vzpostavljanju odnosa ključno vlogo. Vprašanja, ki nam jih postavljajo otroci v predšolskem obdobju, so pogosta, zlasti vprašanja, na katere neradi odgovarjamo oz. se jim izogibamo. Pomembno je, da otrok dobi pravo informacijo in si odgovorov ne izmišljamo ter jih ne interpretirano napačno.
Naš namen je prikazati mnenja o doživljanju vzgojiteljev in ostalih strokovnih delavcev v vrtcu pri sodelovanju s Pegazovim domom starejših občanov in prikazati doživljanja medgeneracijskega sodelovanja strokovnih delavcev Pegazovega doma za starejše občane. Prav tako želimo prikazati doživljanja druženj otrok in starostnikov.
Pri večini globalnih ciljev gre za različna področja družbe, npr. spoznavanje zgodovinskih sprememb, razvijanje občutka socialne pripadnosti, ki temelji na ideji enakosti in nediskriminiranosti, srečevanje s človekovim odnosom do bolezni in invalidnosti. Otrok spoznava, da morajo vsi ljudje v določeni družbi pomagati in sodelovati, da bi lahko ta delovala ter omogočila preživetje ter udobje in dobro počutje vseh vključenih. Otrok se seznanja tudi z različnimi poklici in ima možnost razvijati sposobnosti in načine vzpostavljanja, vzdrževanja in uživanja v prijateljskih odnosih s starostniki, kar vključuje tudi razumevanje vedenja drugih in njihovih občutjih ter vljudnost pri medsebojnem komuniciranju.ABSTRACT
My diploma work deals with intergenerational cooperation between Pegaz old people\u27s home and kindergarten Rogaška Slatina.
Intergenerational cooperation is being of great importance as well as the tolerance among different generations. Kindergarten represents a living space for a child, where he actively learns and gains different capabilities and develops values in intergenerational society. Nowadays we ask ourselves whether the society ensures appropriate environment when the respect of elderly people is being considered. Mutuality among generations is very important, that is why it is significant to be in good terms with each other. Another point is that the role of grandparents is getting more and more important because of the lack of time of the parents.
In the early childhood, children are very guidable, so the acquirement of moral values is the priority in education. Because of the lack of the time of middle generation, grandparents play an important part in the child\u27s upbringing. In development of friendly relationship a kindergarten as an institution plays an influential part, with the help of professional workers. They have a special sense for education and they provide certain interaction among children and senior citizens and with their own critical mind, they reject the stereotype that arose in the society through time.
Child\u27s cognitive development and the sense of empathy play a crucial part when establishing relationships. Questions asked by children in preschool period are frequent, especially those that the adults are not so willing to answer or just avoid them. But it is very important for a child to get the right information, that we do not invent the answers or interpret them in a wrong way. Our intention is to show different opinions from teachers in the kindergarten and other professional workers, the cooperation with Pegaz old people\u27s home and present the experience of intergenerational cooperation of professional workers of old people\u27s home. We would like to point out some experience in spending time together (between children and elderly people).
When we think of most global goals, we consider them as playing part in different social fields, for example to be aware of historic changes, to develop the sense of social understanding, based on the idea of equality and non-discrimination, to meet person\u27s relation towards illness and disability. A child learns that every individual in the society should help and cooperate if we want to make a normal working society, which endorses survival, comfort and well-being of all included.
A child is getting to know with different jobs and has the opportunity to develop certain abilities and ways of establishing, maintaining and enjoying in friendly relationship with elderly people. All these include also the understanding other people\u27s behavior and their feelings and courtesy when communicating to each other
LEARNING ABOUT THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT AND ITS IMPORTANCE IN NURSERY SCHOOL IN ROGAŠKA SLATINA
POVZETEK IN KLJUČNE BESEDE
V diplomskem delu z naslovom Spoznavanje in pomen naravnega okolja v rogaških vrtcih prestavljamo naravno okolje, njegov vpliv in pomen za človeka oz. otroka. V teoretičnem delu se osredotočamo na pomen narave za otrokov vsestranski razvoj, predstavljamo vlogo odraslih pri spoznavanju narave in možnosti uresničevanja ciljev s področja narave v vsakdanjih dejavnostih v vrtcu.
Empirični del predstavlja raziskava, v kateri smo ugotavljali, kako velik poudarek dajejo vzgojiteljice in pomočnice naravnemu okolju v vrtcih v Rogaški Slatini. Z metodo anketiranja in obdelavo pridobljenih podatkov smo ugotavljali: kako pogosto otroci rogaških vrtcev zahajajo v naravno okoljekaj za njih sploh je naravno okoljekakšna je njihova vloga pri spoznavanju naravnega okoljaali se vzgojiteljem zdi pomembno, da otroci zahajajo v naravno okolje v vseh letnih časih in vseh vremenskih razmerahkaj je tisto, zaradi česar otroci ne zahajajo pogosteje v naravoali imajo v igralnici naravoslovni kotiček ter ali otroci izražajo interes, veselje ter voljo za odhod v naravno okolje. Ob koncu so vzgojiteljice in pomočnice podale mnenje o tem, kaj bi bilo potrebno storiti, da bi otroci pogosteje zahajali v naravo.The diploma paper with the title Learning about the natural environment and its importance in nursery schools in Rogaška Slatina presents environmental education with its significance and impact on children. The theoretical part concentrates on the importance of nature in children\u27s versatile development, introduces the role of adults in researching nature and possibilities of achieving environmental aims in the nursery school everday activities.
The empirical part presents the research in which we wanted to find out what importance do nursery school teachers and assistants give to natural environment in Rogaška Slatina nursery schools. By processing the data from the questionnaires we wanted to find out how much time do children in Rogaška Slatina nursery schools spend in nature, what do children think the natural environment is, what is their role in the process of researching natural environment, do nursery school teachers think spending time in nature is necessary in all seasons regardless the weather conditions, what keeps children away from natural environment, is there a science corner in their playroom, and do children show interest in spending time in nature. Nursery school teachers and assistants stated their opinions on the possibilities for children to spend even more time in nature
The construction of Karen Karnak: The multi-author-function
This thesis is situated within the comparatively recent developments of Web 2.0 and the emergence of interactive WikiMedia, and explores the mode of authorship within a Read/Write culture compared to that of a Read/Only tradition. The hypothesis of this study is that the role of the audience has become merged with the author, and as such, represents new functions and attributes, distinct from a more conventional concept of authorship, in which the roles of audience and author are more separate. Read/Write and participatory culture, as defined by this study, is focused on collaboration, and includes the influences of D.I.Y. culture, Open-Source practices and the production of text by multiple authors. Multi-authorship presents a re-thinking of several concepts which support the notion of the individual author, since the focus of multi-authorship is not on attribution and ownership of a finished text, but on the continued malleability of a text. Modes of multi-authorship, demonstrated in the use of the pseudonyms Alan Smithee and Karen Eliot, represent declarative authors whose names signify multiple origins, whilst concurrently indicating a distinct body of work. The function of these names form an important context to this study, since primary research involves the construction of an experimental mode of multi-authorship utilising WikiMedia technology and the interaction of thirty nine participants, who are invited to create a body of work under the collective pseudonym Karen Karnak. The data generated by this experiment is analysed using aspects of Michel Foucault's author-function to identify and determine power structures inherent in the WikiMedia context. The interplay of power structures, including concepts such as identity, ownership and the body of work, affect the resulting mode of authorship and contribute to the construction of Karen Karnak, suggesting further areas of research into the emerging multi-author

THERA-BAND AS TOOL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF MOTOR ABILITIES
Namen diplomskega dela z naslovom Thera-band kot pripomoček za razvoj gibalnih sposobnosti je bil otrokom eksperimentalne skupine povečati telesno moč ter izboljšati ravnotežje in koordinacijo s pomočjo elastičnega traku Thera-band.
V teoretičnem delu je predstavljen elastični trak Thera-band, njegova uporaba, lastnosti ter vaje, ki jih lahko izvajamo s pomočjo elastičnega traku. Prav tako so podrobno predstavljene tri motorične sposobnosti, to so moč, ravnotežje in koordinacija.
V empiričnem delu so predstavljeni rezultati pedagoškega eksperimenta, v katerem je sodelovalo 20 otrok, starih pet let. Izvajali smo začetno in končno testiranje motoričnih testov, pri katerih smo s pomočjo Thera-band elastičnega traku razvijali moč, koordinacijo in ravnotežje. Potekalo je 12-tedensko izvajanje različnih vaj s Thera-band elastičnim trakom. Rezultati testiranj so nam pokazali, da obstajajo razlike med kontrolno in eksperimentalno skupino, saj so otroci eksperimentalne skupine dosegali boljše rezultate ob končnem izvajanju motoričnih testov kot otroci kontrolne skupine.The purpose of the diploma paper called Thera-band as an instrument for developing motor skills was to increase the body strength of the children of experimental group as well as to improve the balance and coordination with the help of elastic band Thera-band.
In the theoretical part there are presented Thera-band elastic band, its characteristics, usage of it and the exercises that can be practised with the help of this elastic band. There are also presented three motor skills which arestrength, balance and coordination.
At the empirical part I exposed the results of pedagogical experiment in which twenty children age of five took part. We practised the initial and final testing of motor tests, where we developed strength, coordination and balance with the help of Thera-band elastic band. The 12-week performance of several exercises with Thera-band elastic band took place. The results of testing proved that there are differences between the control group and the experimental group, because the children of the experimental group achieved better results at the final performing of motor tests than the children of the control group
