    The paper discusses the branding options of Bosnia and Herzegovina, i.e. the phenomenon of identity and image of this country, and the potential and obstacles in creating a better perception of Bosnia and Herzegovina worldwide. The author conducted a survey of public opinion among the citizens of B&H, i.e. respondents from the three BH nations - Bosniaks, Croats and Serbs, in two periods - in 2010 and 2013 in order to explore how they perceive the identity and image of their country and how they see potentials and drawbacks of its possible branding. According to the research results most of the respondents are aware of the potentials and advantages that can hold all three nations together turning at the same time Bosnia and Herzegovina into an internationally recognized brand. These potentials mostly refer to the mentality and way of life as well as the natural attractions and diversity.Rad se bavi mogućnostima brendiranja Bosne i Hercegovine, odnosno fenomenom identiteta i imidža ove države te potencijalima i preprekama u stvaranju bolje percepcije BiH. Autor je proveo istraživanje javnoga mnijenja među građanima BiH, odnosno ispitanicima iz reda triju bosanskohercegovačkih naroda – Bošnjaka, Hrvata i Srba, u dva vala – 2010. i 2013. kako bi istražio kako oni doživljavaju identitet i imidž svoje države te kako sagledavaju potencijale i nedostatke na putu njezina mogućeg brendiranja. Istraživanje je pokazalo kako je većina građana uvjerena da postoje potencijali i prednosti koje mogu sva tri naroda održati na okupu te istodobno od Bosne i Hercegovine stvoriti međunarodno prepoznatljiv brend. Ti se potencijali najviše odnose na mentalitet i način života te prirodne ljepote i raznolikost

    Reading comprehension is regarded as an important skill to gain new information. It is a basic skill to discover and expand new knowledge as Henning (1997:4) says that reading can be said as the most important skill to be mastered because knowledge and information can only be obtained through reading comprehension. Reading also can be a medium of communication between the readers and the author. It means that while people are reading a text they are having a communication with the author. The communication between readers and author happens when the readers understand what the author‟s intention is. When the readers do not understand the author‟s intention in the text it means they are not reading. Hence, there are many learners who still fail in comprehending the text meaning. This is in line with the result of pleminary study that had been done at SMPN 1 Jember. It was found that the VIII-J grade students of SMPN 1 Jember had problem in comprehending a text that made them got low scores in reading class. It was proved by looking at their mean reading score (69.30) which was the lowest among the other eighth grade classes. Thus, I determined to conduct a classroom action research and gave the students a reading comprehension strategy to be used in reading class. This classroom action research was conducted to enhance the VIII-J grade students‟ reading comprehension achievement at SMPN 1 Jember. The strategy used in this research was SQ3R strategy. SQ3R strategy was created by Francis P. Robinson in 1941. This strategy was designed to help process and increase retention of written information. Al-Ghazo (2015) states that SQ3R presents a detailed step-by step outline of what a reader should accomplish while reading. It means that it helps students think about the text they read while they are reading. The study was done in two cycles to check the consistency of the research result. Each cycle covered two meetings of the action implementation and one meeting for administering the test. Besides, the observation checklist consisted of 5 indicators, namely 1) surveying the title and the picture of the text, 2) formulating questions based on the title and the picture that had been surveyed, 3) underlining the main points and the answer of their own questions, 4) reciting the main points of the text, and 5) reviewing and doing the task given. The students were categorized as active if they could fulfill at least 4 indicators. The observation results in Cycle 1 showed that there was 78% students were actively involved during the teaching and learning process. Besides, the percentage of the students who achieved the minimum of standard score (75) in Cycle 1 was 78% with the mean score was 77.2. It was improved from the previous score that was 69.30. Then, it was continued to Cycle 2 to check the students‟ consistency. The results of Cycle 2 showed much better. It informed that the observation improved about 12% from Cycle 1 (78%) to Cycle 2 (90%). While the results of the mean score of the students‟ reading achievement score in Cycle 2 were also improved. It was 82.5 with the percentage was 92%. The research results above proved that the use of SQ3R strategy could enhace the VIII-J grade students‟ reading comprehension achievement at SMPN 1 Jember. Therefore, it is recommended for the English teacher of SMPN 1 Jember to use SQ3R strategy as an alternative strategy in teaching reading comprehension

    Svećenik i radost – od iskustva do navještaja evanđelja

    The author reflects on the topic of priesthood and joy, drawing inspiration from Pope Francis and his Apostolic Exhortation Evangelii Gaudium, and also from reflections of other authors, especially German theologian Walter Kasper. Following the initial analysis of the contemporary context in which the priest is and lives, the author points to the impediments to joy in the life of a priest. After that he suggests ways that can lead to the renewal of the experience of joy. It is a way of encountering and friendship with Jesus Christ, especially through the encounter with the Word of God and the celebration of the Eucharist, as well as a way of building priestly spirituality. Furthermore, the author points to the importance of testifying and proclaiming the Gospel, as well as to the image of a priest as a man of joy, hope and humour.Autor u članku promišlja o temi svećeništva i radosti, nadahnjujući se mislima pape Franje iz apostolske pobudnice Evangelii gaudium, ali i promišljanjima drugih autora, osobito njemačkoga teologa Waltera Kaspera. Nakon uvodne analize suvremenoga konteksta u kojem se svećenik nalazi i živi, autor ukazuje na zaprjeke radosti u svećeničkom životu. Nakon toga ukazuje na putove koji mogu voditi prema obnovi iskustva radosti. Riječ je o putu susreta i prijateljstva s Isusom Kristom, osobito kroz susret s riječju Božjom i slavljenjem euharistije, te o putu izgradnje svećeničke duhovnosti. Autor nadalje ukazuje i na važnost svjedočenja i naviještanja evanđelja, te na lik svećenika kao čovjeka radosti, nade i humora

    Crkva i javno mnijenje. Na putu izgradnje unutarcrkvenog dijaloga

    From its beginning the Church was well aware that communion is one of the ideals to aspire to and build up. Reflection on the way of realising communion was always a great challenge for the Church, because in different time periods the Church had to follow specific ways of communicating and forming communion. In recent times, media have become unavoidable means or places of communication between an individual and society. Therefore, they can be of great help in forming dialogue. They allow new ways of connecting, new ways of forming (virtual) communities, and they affect the very communication itself. In this text the author focuses especially on communication that the Church is developing through public opinion within the Church. Apart from many kinds of dialogue with God and the world that it realises – as a community that communicates – it also has a need for public opinion. Since public opinion did not originate within the Church milieu, but in the context of civil society, a question is posed whether it can be changed and accepted also within the communication that is being developed within the Church. In order to formulate an answer to this question one has to begin with the understanding of the nature of the Church, i.e., the goal aimed at through communication within the Church. In forming the authentic dialogue within the Church, all its members are called to face the challenge of plurality, to be ready for self‑criticism, and to try to get familiarised with (media) language and forms of communication of the present‑day public. Dialogue is not a simple application of communication or rhetoric skills. Instead, it ought to become a way the Church lives on its journey of building communion.Crkva je od svojih početaka svjesna da je zajedništvo jedan od ideala prema kojemu treba težiti i koji treba izgrađivati. Promišljanje o načinu ostvarenja zajedništva predstavljalo je uvijek za Crkvu velik izazov jer je, u različitim povijesnim kontekstima, trebala pratiti načine komuniciranja i oblikovanja zajedništva. U novije vrijeme mediji su postali nezaobilazno sredstvo, odnosno prostori komunikacije između pojedinaca i društva, te mogu biti od velike pomoći u oblikovanju dijaloga. Oni omogućavaju nove načine povezivanja, nove načine oblikovanja (virtualnih) zajednica a utječu i na samu komunikaciju. Autor u ovom tekstu posebnu pozornost posvećuje komunikaciji koju Crkva razvija unutarcrkvenim javnim mnijenjem. Uz višestruki dijalog koji neprestano ostvaruje s Bogom i svijetom, Crkva – kao zajednica koja komunicira – ima potrebu za javnim mnijenjem. Budući da se javno mnijenje nije razvilo u crkvenom ambijentu nego u kontekstu građanskog društva, postavlja se pitanje može li se ono primijeniti, odnosno prihvatiti, i u komunikaciji koja se razvija unutar Crkve. Odgovor na to pitanje treba polaziti od razumijevanja naravi Crkve, odnosno cilja koji se unutarcrkvenom komunikacijom želi ostvariti. Svi članovi Crkve, u oblikovanju autentičnog unutarcrkvenog dijaloga, pozvani su suočavati se s izazovom pluralnosti, biti spremni na samokritičnost te nastojati oko što boljeg poznavanja (medijskog) jezika i načina komuniciranja današnje javnosti. Dijalog nije jednostavna primjena komunikacijskih ili retoričkih vještina već bi trebao postajati način življenja Crkve na putu izgradnje zajedništva

    Textbook is one of teaching references used by teacher which provides activities; materials and tasks which help students to increase their higher level thinking. Therefore, tasks are also the essential tools to access students’ understanding of the learning material. Talking about accessing students’ learning, there are some studies that discuss about questions and objectives. Bloom’s taxonomy is one of the studies used to discuss about questions and objectives. Original Bloom’s taxonomy which was created in 1956 under leadership of educational psychologist Dr. Benjamin Bloom has been revised by Anderson and Krathwohl in 2001. Bloom’s taxonomy has three domains; cognitive, affective and psychomotor. Cognitive domain involves knowledge and development of intellectual abilities and skill. There are six major categories in cognitive domain; remember, understand, apply, analyze, evaluate and create. It is classified into two levels thinking; lower thinking level (remember, understand and apply) and higher thinking level (analyze, evaluate and create). This study which had a purpose to analyze reading comprehension questions in English textbook “English Zone” published by Erlangga, implemented content analysis design to describe and analyze the reading comprehension questions in the textbook. This research also used coding system to code materials based on the six major categories of cognitive domains. Documentary method was applied to collect the data from the English textbook of “English Zone” published by Erlangga. Then, the data obtained were analyzed by using the percentage to know the variation of the reading comprehension based on six major categories of cognitive domain. The result of the discussion showed two important things. First, reading comprehension questions in English textbook “English Zone” published by Erlangga covered all new revision of Bloom’s Taxonomy levels. They were remember, understand, apply, analyze, evaluate, and create. Second, the reading comprehension questions were dominated by low order; (remember, understand, and appl) with 99 questions or 59.62% and lower order thinking; (analyze, evaluate, and create) with 67 questions or 40.35%. From this study, it can be concluded that English textbook “English Zone” published by Erlangga provides lower order thinking in reading comprehension questions aspect. It is suggested to the English teacher to construct and modify question items on reading comprehensions by including level of analyze, evaluate, and create while teaching in classroom that can encourage students to think critically and use high order thinking level. It is also suggested to the author and publisher to develop textbooks that foster high order thinking when writing the textbooks for senior high school students

    ISTRAŽIVANJE MENTALNOG ZDRAVLJA I DUHOVNOG OPORAVKA STRUČNJAKA PO ISKUSTVU: RASPRAVA O JEDINSTVENOM DOPRINOSU SOCIJALNIH RADNIKA U PODRŠCI NA TOM PUTU

    Increasingly, experts-by-experience want to explore their spiritual and religious needs as part of their mental health recovery; the contribution of social workers to the journey of spiritual recovery is under-developed. A first-person narrative about spiritual recovery experienced by the first author, an expert-by-experience and an academic, is presented to illuminate understanding of the elements supporting this journey. The method builds on evidence that acknowledges the significance of understanding direct expertise-by-experience alongside a tradition of using creative writing to facilitate professional reflection. Both authors use iterative processes to analyse the narrative and propose a tentative model of spiritual recovery. It is then argued that social work, with its foundation in the bio-psycho-social model and its specific practice methods is well placed to support the spiritual recovery of people who experience mental distress. Moreover social workers have an ethical duty to promote respect for cultural diversity and to demonstrate cultural competency. We discuss how professionals can work effectively with service users to support their mental health and spiritual recovery. Ensuring that social work education is based on anti-discriminatory practice, and that social workers have access to training to develop knowledge about spirituality, will enhance their abilities to meet the spiritual needs of experts-by-experience in their recovery.»Stručnjaci po iskustvu« sve više žele istraživati svoje duhovne i vjerske potrebe u procesu oporavka mentalnog zdravlja, no doprinos socijalnih radnika na putu duhovnog oporavka ne prati njihove potrebe. Predstavljena je priča u »prvom licu« o duhovnom oporavku prve autorice, ujedno »stručnjakinje po iskustvu« i sveučilišne profesorice, u svrhu boljeg razumijevanja elemenata koji sačinjavaju taj put. Metoda se temelji na pokazateljima koji podupiru važnost razumijevanja izravnih stručnih znanja iz iskustva uz tradicionalnu primjenu kreativnog pisanja kako bi se olakšala profesionalna refleksija. Obje autorice analiziraju priču pomoću iterativnih procesa i predlažu okvirni model duhovnog oporavka. Zatim se navodi da socijalni rad, zahvaljujući svojim temeljima u biopsihosocijalnom modelu i svojim specifičnim praktičnim metodama, može odgovoriti na potrebe duhovnog oporavka osoba koje dožive duševnu bol. Osim toga, socijalni radnici imaju etičku dužnost promicati uvažavanje kulturne raznolikosti i pokazati kulturnu kompetentnost. U radu se razmatra kako stručnjaci mogu učinkovito raditi s korisnicima usluga kako bi potpomogli njihov duhovni oporavak i oporavak njihova mentalnog zdravlja. Konačno, ako se obrazovanje socijalnih radnika temelji na antidiskriminacijskoj praksi i ako socijalni radnici imaju pristup osposobljavanju za razvoj znanja o duhovnosti, moći će pružiti kompetentniji odgovor na duhovne potrebe »stručnjaka po iskustvu« tijekom njihova oporavka

    The problem of child and juvenile abuse has been shaking the public more and more lately. In this paper, the author discusses a part of the spectrum of this issue related to the sexual abuse of under-age persons by Catholic priests and monks. The first part deals with the reactions and measures taken by the present pope and his predecessor and the Roman Curia in the fight against sexual abuse committed by clerics. The second major part of this article explores how the Catholic Church in Germany is facing this problem and trying to eradicate it. The sexual abuse of children by church people that came to light caused a deep crisis of faith and shook confidence in the Church there. From the beginning, German bishops recognized all the disastrousness of this evil and accepted a new pattern of exposing and punishing perpetrators, protecting victims, and working on prevention. On the basis of the MHG study, they concluded that there are systemic problems that favour abuse. That is why they decided to convene a kind of synod - the Synodal Path - to discuss the interconnectedness of several key church and theological topics. The author describes in detail and gives documented evidence of numerous activities and efforts regarding the status, convening and first plenary session of this conference. There is a reasonable expectation that the launched synodal process will, among other things, bring cleansing, restore shaken trust, and strengthen church communion in witnessing to the gospel.Problem zlostavljanja djece i maloljetnika u posljednje vrijeme sve više potresa društvenu javnost. U svom radu autor tematizira dio spektra te problematike koji se odnosi na spolno zlostavljanje malodobnika od strane katoličkih svećenika i redovnika. Prvi dio obrađuje reakcije i poduzete mjere sadašnjega pape i njegova prethodnika te Rimske kurije u borbi protiv spolnog zlostavljanja koje su počinili klerici. Drugi, veći dio ovoga članka istražuje kako se Katolička Crkva u Njemačkoj suočava s ovim problemom i kako ga pokušava iskorijeniti. Spolno zlostavljanje djece od strane crkvenih osoba koje je izišlo na vidjelo, izazvao je duboku krizu vjere i poljuljao povjerenje u tamošnju Crkvu. Njemački su biskupi od početka prepoznali svu pogubnost toga zla i prihvatili novi obrazac razotkrivanja i kažnjavanja počinitelja, zaštite žrtava i rad na prevenciji. Na temelju MHG-studije došli su do zaključka da postoje sistemski problemi koji pogoduju zlostavljanju. Zato su odlučili sazvati neku vrst sinode - Sinodski put - da raspravi međusobnu povezanost nekoliko ključnih crkvenih i teoloških tema. Autor detaljno opisuje i dokumentira brojne aktivnosti i nastojanja oko statusa, sazivanja i prvog plenarnog zasjedanja tog skupa. Postoji opravdano očekivanje da će započeti sinodski proces između ostalog donijeti čišćenje, vratiti poljuljano povjerenje i ojačati crkveno zajedništvu u svjedočenju evanđelja
