    Diploma darba mērķis bija izpētīt, kā stāsti var veicināt pirmsskolas izglītības iestāžu audzēkņu izpratni par vērtībām angļu valodas nodarbībās. Darba tēma tika izvēlēta tāpēc, ka autors uzskatīja, ka vērtībizglītībai ir svarīga loma bērnu audzināšanā, tā palīdz veidot pieklājīgus sabiedrības locekļus. Pēdējos gados vecāki un izglītības iestādes ir sākuši diskusijas par vērtībizglītības nozīmi. Autors veica atsevišķa gadījuma pētījumu un izmantoja stāstus angļu valodas nodarbībās pirmskolā, lai veicinātu skolēnu izpratni par vērtībām, trīs mēnešus garumā. Tika konstatēts, ka stāstu stāstīšana ir veiksmīga metode, lai mācītu ļoti jaunus audzēkņus. Autors secināja, ka stāstu un uzdevumu izmantošana ne tikai paaugstināja audzēkņu informētību par vērtībām, bet arī veicināja viņu izpratni par to nozīmi.The Aim of the Diploma Paper was to study how storytelling can contribute to raising learners’ awareness of values in English classes pre-school. The theme of the Paper was chosen because the Author found that values education has an important role in children’s upbringing, it helps to form decent members of society. Recent years parents and educational institutions have started discussions about the importance of values education. The Author conducted a case study and used storytelling in English lessons in pre-school to raise learner’s awareness of values over the period of three months. It was found that storytelling is a successful method for teaching very young learners. The Author concluded that using storytelling along with activities benefited not only to raising the learners’ awareness of values, but it contributed to their comprehension of the importance of values

    Publikacija "To što radiš važno je: učiti o Holokaustu po preporukama Jad Vašema" autorke Nade Banjanin Đuričić je priručnik namenjen nastavnicima i praktičarima u oblasti obrazovanja u Srbiji koji žele da obrađuju temu Holokausta s učenicima uzrasta starijih razreda osnovne škole i srednje škole. Iako autorka navodi u samom naslovu da je publikacija zasnovana na preporukama Jad Vašema, ona daleko prevazilazi osnovne obrazovne smernice ove memorijalne institucije i predstavlјa originalni metodički doprinos promišlјanju i izvođenju obrazovanja o Holokaustu u našem lokalnom kontekstu.The publication "What you are doing is important: learning about the Holocaust according to the recommendations of Yad Vashem" by Nada Banjanin Đuričić is a manual intended for teachers and practitioners in the field of education in Serbia who want to deal with the topic of the Holocaust with students of the older grades of primary and secondary school. Although the author in the title states that the publication is based on the recommendations of Yad Vashem, it goes far beyond the basic educational guidelines of this memorial institution and represents an original methodical contribution to thinking about and carrying out education about the Holocaust in our local context.Knjiga "To što radiš važno je: učiti o Holokaustu po preporukama Jad Vašema" može se preuzeti preko linka (The book "What you are doing is important: learning about the Holocaust according to the recommendations of Yad Vashem" can be downloaded via the link [https://www.jevrejskadigitalnabiblioteka.rs/handle/123456789/1481

    Automated model discovery for human cardiac tissue: Discovering the best model and parameters

    No full text
    For more than half a century, scientists have developed mathematical models to understand the behavior of the human heart. Today, we have dozens of heart tissue models to choose from, but selecting the best model is limited to expert professionals, prone to user bias, and vulnerable to human error. Here we take the human out of the loop and automate the process of model discovery. Towards this goal, we establish a novel incompressible orthotropic constitutive neural network to simultaneously discover both, model and parameters, that best explain human cardiac tissue. Notably, our network features 32 individual terms, 8 isotropic and 24 anisotropic, and fully autonomously selects the best model, out of more than 4 billion possible combinations of terms. We demonstrate that we can successfully train the network with triaxial shear and biaxial extension tests and systematically sparsify the parameter vector with L1-regularization. Strikingly, we robustly discover a four-term model that features a quadratic term in the second invariant I2, and exponential quadratic terms in the fourth and eighth invariants I4f, I4n, and I8fs. Importantly, our discovered model is interpretable by design and has parameters with well-defined physical units. We show that it outperforms popular existing myocardium models and generalizes well, from homogeneous laboratory tests to heterogeneous whole heart simulations. This is made possible by a new universal material subroutine that directly takes the discovered network weights as input. Automating the process of model discovery has the potential to democratize cardiac modeling, broaden participation in scientific discovery, and accelerate the development of innovative treatments for cardiovascular disease.

    Diplomová práce představuje koncept filosofické antropologie Friedricha Schillera. Práce je rozčleněna na tři okruhy. První okruh prezentuje dobové zasazení a prameny, které nejenom ovlivňovaly autorovy spisy, ale i autora samotného. Druhý okruh se zabývá koncepcí člověka optikou filosofických spisů, kde je sledována linka personální a politické svobody. Třetí okruh se pohledem uměním zaměřuje na jedincovo jednání a demonstruje na konkrétním díle lidské drama a utrpení. Zároveň je reflektován autorův morální přesah. Přínosem této práce je zhodnocení a shrnutí důležitých estetických aspektů v morálním jednání jedince.The thesis presents the concept of Friedrich Schiller's philosophical anthropology. This is divided into three section. The first section submits the period setting and source that not only influence the author's works but also the author himself. The second deals with the concept of man through the lens of philosophical books, where line of personal and political freedom is followed. The third focuses on the individual's actions through the perspective of works of art and demonstrates human drama and suffering in specific works. At the same time the author's moral overlap is reflected. The benefit of this thesis is the evaluation and summary of important aesthetic aspects in the moral behavior of the individual.Fakulta filozofickáMartina Matysková seznámila zkušební komisi s obsahem a závěry své diplomové práce "Člověk v dramatu bytí u F.

    Baroque Parish Church in Radecznica: research and conservation issues

    No full text
    Opracowanie omawia dzieje wzniesienia barokowego kościoła parafialnego w Radecznicy na przełomie XVII i XVIII wieku, a także jego późniejsze losy ściśle powiązane z historią Polski, co wpłynęło znacząco na pierwotną stylistykę świątyni oraz zniszczenie części XVII-wiecznego wystroju. Obecny wygląd wnętrza kościoła stanowi w większości odtworzenie polichromii, ołtarzy, obrazów, pod ścisłą opieką konserwatora zabytków, niezachowanych z powodu licznych zniszczeń przez pożary oraz przekształcenia (kolejno w cerkiew, monastyr), konfiskat i grabieży w czasach komunizmu. Świątynia jest mało znanym i niedocenianym dziełem projektu Jana Michała Linka, autora zamojskich fortyfikacji. Do czasów współczesnych przetrwała bez zmiany stylistyki zewnętrznej jej bryły, zachwyca także polichromią pędzla Gabriela Sławińskiego. Aktualnie obiekt doprowadzono do dobrego stanu, ukończone zostały wszelkie prace renowacyjne.This study discusses the history of the rise of the Baroque parish church in Radecznica at the turn of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, as well as its later fate closely related to Polish history, which significantly influenced the original design of the church and the destruction of a part of the seventeenth-century décor. The present appearance of the church’s interior is mostly a recreation of polychrome, altars, paintings, under the strict care of the conservator of monuments, which had not survived due to being damaged by fires and transformation (successively into an orthodox church, monastery), and confiscation and looting during the Communist era. The church is a little-known and underrated work of Jan Michał Link, the author of Zamość’s fortifications. It has survived without any stylistic changes to its body, and also impresses with the polychrome by Gabriel Sławiński. Currently, the building has been restored to good condition and all renovation work has been completed
