Using the model of human occupation in the occupational treatment in Slovenia
No full textUvod: Model človekove okupacije velja za mednarodno najbolj razširjen model v delovni terapiji, ker podpira na okupacijo usmerjeno prakso in zagotavlja holističen pogled na
uporabnika. Osnovan je na dokazih iz prakse celotnega sveta in se uporablja na vseh ravneh zdravstvenega varstva. V Sloveniji je uporaba modela med delovnimi terapevti
pogosta, ni pa raziskana. Namen: Ugotoviti, kakšen je doprinos modela človekove okupacije v delovnoterapevtski obravnavi v Sloveniji in kakšen vpliv ima na profesionalno
identiteto delovnih terapevtov. Metode dela: Na osnovi pregleda literature smo sestavili vprašalnik, ki je zajemal trditve na temo uporabe in vpliva modela človekove okupacije na prakso. Sodelujoči so se pri posameznih trditvah opredelili, v kakšni meri se strinjajo. Povezavo do spletnega vprašalnika v obliki 1-KA smo preko Zbornice delovnih terapevtov Slovenije poslali zaposlenim delovnim terapevtom. Podatke smo zbirali od 1. 3. do 8. 9. 2023. Rezultati: Vprašalnik je v celoti rešilo 30 delovnih terapevtov, ki so v praksi uporabljali model človekove okupacije. Večina terapevtov je imela dobro znanje o modelu, skoraj polovica anketiranih je v praksi vedno ali skoraj vedno uporabljala model človekove okupacije kot primarni model. Večina se je strinjala, da model pozitivno vpliva na
delovnoterapevtski proces, predvsem v fazi vrednotenja in obravnave. Večje nestrinjanje je bilo prisotno pri trditvah, vezane na končno fazo procesa, to so izidi. Razviden je bil
doprinos modela na razvoj profesionalne identitete delovnih terapevtov. Razprava in zaključek: Model človekove okupacije ima pozitiven vpliv na delovnoterapevtski proces in posledično tudi profesionalno identiteto delovnih terapevtov. Težava se pojavi pri prenosu modela v prakso, predvsem zaradi organiziranosti slovenskega zdravstvenega
sistema in pomanjkljivih kompetenc delovnih terapevtov. Raziskave iz tujih razvitih držav poročajo o obsežnejši uporabi modela človekove okupacije v praksi in večjem doprinosu modela na delovnoterapevtsko prakso. Za prenos modela v prakso tuje raziskave navajajo manj omejitev iz okolja in večjo podporo v delovnem okolju.Introduction: Internationally, the model of human occupation is the most widely used model in occupational therapy because it supports occupation-oriented practice and
provides a holistic view of the user. It is based on evidence from practice around the world and is used at all levels of healthcare. The use of the model among occupational therapists in Slovenia is common, but not studied. Purpose: To determine the contribution of the
model to occupational therapy treatment and the professional identity of therapists in Slovenia. Methods: Based on a literature review, we compiled a questionnaire that
included statements on the use and impact of the model on practice. Participants used the Likert scale to rate their beliefs about individual statements. The link to the online
questionnaire in the form of 1-KA was sent to employed occupational therapists via the Slovenian association of occupational therapists. The data was collected from 1. 3. to 8. 9. 2023. Results: The questionnaire was fully answered by 30 occupational therapists who used the model of human occupation in their practice. Most occupational therapists had good knowledge of the model and almost half of them always or almost always used the model as their primary model in practice. Most agreed, that the model has a positive impact on the occupational therapy process, especially in the evaluation and intervention phase. Greater disagreement was present in the statements related to the final stage of the process, the outcomes. The model contributes to the development of the professional
identity of occupational therapists. Discussion and conclusion: The model of human occupation has a positive impact on the occupational therapy process and also on the
professional identity of occupational therapist. The problem arises with the implementation of the model into practice, mainly due to the organization of the Slovenian healthcare
system and the lack of competencies of occupational therapists. Studies in foreign developed countries report more extensive use of the model and its greater contribution to occupational therapy practice. Foreign studies cite fewer environmental constraints and more support in the work environment when implementing the model into practice

The effect of season on the optical properties of Vinca major leaves
No full textPlants are exposed to various stressful factors which vary throughout the growing season. The stressful factors the plants are exposed to affect their anatomical and biochemical properties and therefore their optical properties. In this thesis, we studied the effect of season on the optical properties of Vinca major's leaves.
Our research contained study of literature on the subject of light conditions in the environment and specifically in the undergrowth. We focused on the optical properties and plant response on the environmental changes and their anatomical, morphological as well as biochemical adaptations. We also paid special attention to the description of the area where the studied plants were picked.
We measured the reflectance and transmittance of the Vinca major’s leaves in November, April and August and graphically presented their relative reflectance and transmittance in the range of 280 to 887 nm. We compared the measurements and evaluated them. The DCA analysis helped us define the similarities between the spectra based on the average values of the spectral bands.
The DCA analysis showed that the leaves picked in November and April have similar spectral reflectance and transmittance, whereas the results acquired from the August leaves stand out. The statistical analysis of the acquired spectral bands has shown a maximum relative difference in reflectance in the case of Vinca major’s leaves picked in November, which was seen in the green and yellow spectra.
Leaves reflected a large part of the radiation in the NIR range. The examples of the April leaves had the biggest reflection.
Bigger relative transmittance was measured in the similar ranges of the spectra than it was the case in the relative reflectance. The November leaves had bigger transmittance in the green and yellow range, while the transmittance of the April and August leaves were very small. All of the studied leaves had big transmittance in the NIR range. The leaves gathered in November and April transmitted a lot of light in NIR range, whereas the leaves collected in August transmitted very few. This was due to the thickness of leaves.
Based on the results gathered and differences between spectra we can determine that season typically affects the light reflectance and transmittance of the leaves. However, a more detailed analysis would give us a better understanding of connection between the anatomical and biochemical properties and Vinca major’s optical properties

Diplomsko delo Dojemanje neskončnosti premice je sestavljeno iz dveh delov: teoretičnega in empiričnega. V teoretičnem delu so predstavljene Van Hielejeve stopnje geometrijskih predstav, definicije premice in neskončnosti, neskončnost števil, neskončnost premice, ponazorila neskončnosti premice, ponazoritvene vaje za izboljšanje predstav o premici in premica kot del učnega načrta. Namen diplomskega dela je bil ugotoviti, ali učenci dojemajo neskončnost premice ter analizirati stanje v osnovnih šolah. Pri raziskovanju so bile uporabljene deskriptivna, kavzalno-neeksperimentalna in kavzalna eksperimentalna metoda pedagoškega raziskovanja. Rezultati so pokazali, da učenci v četrtem razredu, ko se prvič srečajo s premico, še niso na stopnji razvoja, na kateri bi analitično razumeli neskončnost premice. Na deklarativnem nivoju sicer povedo, da je premica neskončno dolga oz. neomejena ravna črta, vendar pa si na konceptualnem nivoju premice ne predstavljajo kot take. Osnovni razlog je vizualna oz. delno analitična narava dojemanja geometrijskih pojmov na tej razvojni stopnji. Ugotovljeno je bilo, da bi bilo potrebno premico v višjih razredih, ko so učenci že sposobni dojeti in razumeti neskončnost premice, obravnavati na vizualnem in analitičnem nivoju in dosledno upoštevati spiralnost učnega načrta oz. izgradnje kognitivne mreže. V četrtem oz. petem razredu bi se torej le pridobivale izkušnje, ki so predpogoj za abstrahiranje pojma v višjih razredih.ABSTRACT
The thesis Perception of Infinity of a Line consists of two parts: a theoretical and empirical part. The theoretical part presents Van Hiel’s levels of geometrical reasoning, definitions of a line and infinity, infinity of numbers, illustrative exercises for improving the perception of a line and a line as a part of curriculum. The aim of the thesis was to find out if students comprehend the infinity of the line, and to analyse the situation in elementary schools. A descriptive and experimental method were used in this research. The results have showed that the students of the 4th class, who get familiar with the line for the first time, are not on the development level which would enable them an analytical perception of the infinity of the line. They say that a line is unlimited and straight, but they cannot comprehend that on a conceptual level. The basic reason is visual and partly analytical way of perception of geometrical concepts at this stage of development. Consequently, line should be dealt with in higher classes of elementary school when students are able to perceive and comprehend the infinity of a line, and coverage on visual and analytical level is possible. At the same time the spiral of curriculum and construction of cognitive network should be taken in serious consideration. To sum up, work in 4th and 5th class should be focused on getting experience which would form a framework for abstraction of the concept in higher classes of elementary school
THE ATTITUDE OF STUDENTS IN THE FIRST CYCLE OF BASIC EDUCATION, THEIR PARENTS AND TEACHERS TOWARDS MATHEMATICS
No full textMatematika je beseda, ki že sama po sebi pri marsikom vzbuja neprijetne občutke. Nekateri menijo, da je pomembna veda za življenje, da jo potrebujemo v vsakdanjiku, drugim pa predstavlja polno nerazumljivih pojmov, enačb, izrekov in definicij. V diplomskem delu želimo predstaviti dosedanja znanstvena spoznanja o odnosu učencev do matematike, zanimalo nas je tudi, kakšen odnos imajo do nje starši učencev in učitelji. V teoretičnem delu diplomskega dela želimo predstaviti do sedaj izvedene raziskave in druga dela, ki se tičejo povezave odnosa do matematike med tremi ključnimi subjekti, in sicer učenci, starši in učitelji. Na kratko bomo opisali pouk matematike v prvih dveh triletjih, učni načrt in njegove cilje. Poseben razdelek diplomskega dela je namenjen dognanjem o odnosih in prepričanjih do matematike, kar predstavlja izhodišče za empirični del. V empiričnem delu je predstavljena raziskava, ki je bila izvedena na osnovnih šolah v mariborskem okolišu. Vzorec zajema učence razredne stopnje, natančno 3. in 5. razrede, njihove starše in učitelje. Zajetih je bilo šest osnovnih šol, osem vzorcev iz 5. razredov in sedem vzorcev iz 3. razredov, kar pomeni 15 učiteljev, 223 učencev in prav toliko staršev. Podatke smo zbrali z anketnih vprašalnikom, ki zajema vprašanja, vezana na odnos učencev do matematike. Rezultati so pokazali, da se učenci, ko razmišljajo o matematiki, večinoma počutijo sproščeno, prav tako so sproščeni njihovi starši in učitelji. Učenci razredne stopnje imajo dokaj pozitiven odnos do matematike, saj so se pogosteje strinjali s trditvami, ki so bile navedene. Dekleta imajo bistveno večjo anksioznost do matematike kot fantje. Prav tako so bolj samokritična, matematika se jih zdi manj pomembna kot fantom. Ugotovili smo tudi, da se učenci tretjega razreda matematiko učijo raje, zdi se jim bolj zanimiva kot učencem petega razreda. Rezultati so prav tako pokazali, da so starši povečini mnenja, da ima njihov otrok rad matematiko, večina jih je prepričanih, da se jo radi učijo in da jim ne dela problemov. Skratka, odnos do matematike je s strani staršev dokaj pozitiven. Prav tako je tudi z učitelji, prepričani so, da v vsakdanjem življenju vsakdo potrebuje matematiko, saj nas le-ta uči vztrajnosti in doslednosti. Strinjajo se s trditvijo, da učenci potrebujejo veliko vaje in da je matematika lahko zabavna.Mathematics is a word which in itself rises unpleasant feelings in many people. Some consider it to be important science in our daily lives, while for many it represents full of incomprehensible concepts, equations, theorems and definitions. In this thesis the aim is to present scientific findings on the relationship of students towards mathematics. We were also interested in students\u27 parents and class teachers\u27 attitudes towards mathematics. In the theoretical part of the thesis we want to present the research that has been done so far and other work that is concerned in relation to attitudes towards mathematics among the three key subjects in mathematicsstudents, parents and teachers. We will briefly describe the teaching of mathematics in the first two cycles of elementary school, the curriculum and its objectives. A special section is dedicated to the terms and beliefs in mathematics and it is a starting point for empirical work. In the empirical work the survey that was conducted at primary schools in the Maribor area is presented. The sample includes students of third and fifth class, their parents and their teachers. Six elementary schools have been included, eight samples of fifth class, and seven samples third class. which means fifteen teachers, two hundred and twenty-three students and the same number of parents. Data was collected with a questionnaire that covered issues related to the attitude of students towards mathematics. Data was then presented through diagrams and tables and interpreted. The results showed that students and also their parents and teachers feel generally relaxed when they think about mathematics. Students of first five classes have quite positive attitude towards mathematics, because they have more often agreed with statements that underline positive attitudes. It was found out that girls have a significantly higher anxiety towards mathematics than boys. They are also more self critical and mathematics is by them considered less important than it is for the boys. We also found out that third grade students seem to be more interested in learning mathematics than students in the fifth grade. The results also showed that parents are mostly of the opinion that their children like mathematics, that they like to learn mathematics and that they do not have problems with it. The attitude towards mathematics is quite positive from the side of parents and teachers. Teachers believe that mathematics is useful in everyday life because it teaches us persistence and consistency. They agree with the statement that in mathematics students need a lot of practise and that it can also be a lot of fun

No full textUse of plant-based platform for production of biopharmaceutical antibodies
No full textMonoklonska protitelesa, tako za terapevtske kot diagnostične namene, predstavljajo enega izmed najpomembnejših biofarmacevtskih izdelkov. Zaradi trenutnega in v prihodnje vedno večjega povpraševanja po njih je treba preiti na alternativne proizvodne platforme, ki bodo zmožne vsaj dopolniti že sedaj prekomerno preobremenjene tradicionalne proizvodne obrate. Ena od možnih alternativ je uporaba rastlinskih ekspresijskih sistemov. Ta tehnologija je že dokazala nekatere svoje prednosti v smislu varnosti, hitrosti, možnosti hitrega povečanja obsega, nižjih stroškov proizvodnje, visokih donosov, nadaljnje raziskave na področju glikoinženirstva pa posledično omogočajo celo izboljšanje biofarmacevtskih protiteles v smislu boljše stabilnosti in aktivnosti. Raznolikost rastlinskih sistemov (celične in tkivne kulture, uporaba vodnih rastlin, mahov, alg, celih rastlin) omogoča različno vrsto platform, ki lahko potencialno tekmujejo na različnih trgih, saj se prilagajajo konkretnim zahtevam. Ker je možnosti uporabe rastlin v ta namen veliko, sem se v diplomskem delu usmerila le na potencialno uporabo celih rastlin. Osredotočila sem se predvsem na načine transformacije (stabilna in prehodna), prednosti, pomanjkljivosti in težave, s katerimi se ta alternativa srečuje. Nekaj pozornosti sem namenila tudi pregledu trga in v kakšni meri bi lahko rastline doprinesle h globalnim potrebam po protitelesih. Na koncu sem podala še nekaj primerov, ki prikazujejo uspešno uporabo te tehnologije v večjem obsegu.Monoclonal antibodies, both for therapeutic and diagnostic use, represent one of the most important biopharmaceutical products. Due to current and future increasing demand, there is an urgent need for alternative production platforms that can at least act as a complement to the overexploited mammalian fermentation systems. One possible alternative for the large-scale production of biopharmaceuticals is the use of plant expression systems. This technology has already proven its advantages in terms of safety, speed, potential for rapid scale-up production, lower production costs, high yields and the possibility to engineer a tailored antibody glycosylation profile, which allows us to produce even more stable and efficient antibodies. The diversity of plant systems (cell or tissue cultures, use of aquatic plants, mosses, algae, whole plants) allows adaptation to specific requirements of different platforms. Since the possibilities of use are broad I only focused on the potential use of whole plants. I described different methods of plant transformation (stable and transient expression), advantages, shortcomings, difficulties of this alternative platform, and the potential contribution of plant made antibodies to the global market. Finally, I have presented a few examples that have shown the successful use of plant-platforms on a larger scale
