CREATIVE HISTORY TEACHING IS THE MAIN ENGINE FOR SUCCESSFUL AND SAFE TEACHING

2024-10-27T22:18:46+00:00

The creative teaching of history has a broad and global character and refers to the improvement of the educational system as a whole and signifies a novelty that is inserted into the pedagogical reality. According to its quality, it will always be a progressive and developmental change in teaching. Special emphasis in the subject is given to the creative teacher who is never satisfied with ordinary results. He constantly researches, discovers and creates something new. The paper presents the results of this dynamic, which can be achieved by successful communication with the teacher and the student with a new style and own model of work.

NAVIGATING WAVES OF PROGRESS: HALLIWICK METHOD FOR AUTISM IN SCHOOL SWIMMING

2024-10-27T22:18:46+00:00

This study explores the developmental characteristics of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and evaluates the effectiveness of the Halliwick method, an aquatic therapy approach, in enhancing their aquatic experiences and skill development. Children with ASD often exhibit challenges in social interaction, communication, play behaviour, adherence to routines, intellectual functioning, and sensory sensitivity. The Halliwick method, developed in the 1940s, utilizes water-based activities to promote movement, balance, and independence. Our research involved implementing and assessing specific adaptations and strategies of the Halliwick method tailored to children with ASD. Results indicated significant improvements in functional abilities, social integration, and cognitive and sensory skills. The study highlights the therapeutic benefits of the Halliwick method, emphasizing the importance of individualized approaches and the need for further research to generalize findings.

PREVENTION OF RISKY BEHAVIOR IN PRESCHOOL AGE CHILDREN

2024-10-27T22:18:46+00:00

In order to one day develop into responsible adults, full of potential, ready for quality education, employment, creating and strengthening friendships and emotional bonds and starting our own family, we go through early social, emotional and cognitive development, which created us foundations for our functioning and achievement in all areas of life. Our development is influenced by the environment, which consists of family, peers, educational institutions and community. They provide guidance and support, cultivating within us the capacity to withstand adversity, maintain strong mental health, and flourish. By fostering resilience and protective factors, they empower us to overcome challenges and avoid harmful influences that could impede our development and negatively impact the child's growth. These wrong ways manifest as behaviors (such as aggression, reticence , etc.) that express that something is wrong and that we need help. The role of adults and the community is to recognize these calls for help and intervene so that these pathways do not develop into bigger problems and prevent us from fully realizing ourselves as healthy and happy individuals. There are numerous reasons why children begin to adopt risky behavior patterns. The need for early detection of risk factors from the child's immediate environment, which may be the cause of risky behavior, becomes increasingly important, especially because children in whom risky behaviors are detected early are exposed to a risk that -will later be recognized as social incompetence. In order to prevent the occurrence of risky behaviors in children, it is necessary to act preventively. In this paper, the risky behaviors of children are defined, some of the risk factors that encourage risky behaviors are presented, and the importance of quality prevention is emphasized.

IDENTIFICATION OF LEARNING DIFFICULTIES AND SPECIFIC LEARNING DIFFICULTIES IN PRIMARY SCHOOL PUPILS

2024-10-27T22:18:46+00:00

In the paper, we describe the problem, purpose, goals and findings of our research. We focus on the two concepts of learning difficulties and specific learning difficulties.

In the empirical part, we present a case study of a student in which we attempt to identify learning difficulties using questionnaires designed by Dr. Skaler and Dr. Hannell.

At the end, we try to draw conclusions and find strategies for improvement, solutions or ways to mitigate certain problems.

A student with specific learning difficulties faces challenges in Slovenian and mathematics, as well as emotional-social difficulties. Although the student is not officially diagnosed, our research indicates deficits in specific areas, particulary in reading-writing and emotional-social skills. The questionnaires revealed a pronounced and significant deficit in the areas of dyslexia and dyscalculia.

The research was carried out in the school district. We had an expert interview with the 6th grade class teacher, an expert interview with the 3rd grade class teacher, and an expert interview with the pedagogue.

SOCIALIZATION AND EDUCATION

2024-10-27T22:18:47+00:00

Socialization and education are fundamental processes that contribute significantly to an individuals development. With these processes, an individual can easily be included in various social circles and be facilitated in an cultural integration. While an individual may accept certain societal rules, this does not necessarily mean full compliance with them. Socialization is indeed key – without it, society could not thrive and progress. And the critical messure of the success in a society has been education. Education, therefore, can be defined as a specific social process in which young people acquire essential knowledge and skills that serve as a cornerstone in their future role in society. It broadens our mental horizon, it instills maturity and lays down the way to success in life. Education fosters self-respect and earns us respect from others. Last but not least, it teaches us how to navigate the world and understand the expectations of society. As Nelson Mendela said: "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world!"
