    Stalno izboljševanje skladiščnih procesov je ključno za učinkovito delovanje podjetja, saj neposredno vpliva na stroške, časovne roke ter zadovoljstvo strank. V diplomskem delu smo analizirali uvedbo sistema črtne kode v izbranem podjetju, s ciljem izboljšanja upravljanja zalog ter povečanja natančnosti in sledljivosti skladiščnih operacij. Na podlagi analize obstoječega stanja smo identificirali ključne pomanjkljivosti trenutnih postopkov naročanja, prevzema, skladiščenja in izdaje materiala, ki so zajemali predvsem visoko stopnjo ročnega dela, dolge čase izvedbe in možnost napak. Predlagali smo uvedbo sistema črtne kode kot rešitev, ki bi omogočila višjo stopnjo avtomatizacije procesov, hitrejše in bolj zanesljivo evidentiranje artiklov ter boljše povezovanje s programsko opremo za vodenje zalog. Analiza predloga je pokazala, da bi uvedba črtne kode zmanjšala število napak, skrajšala čas izvedbe operacij in omogočila sprotno ažuriranje zalog. Za uspešno izvedbo bi bilo ključno dobro načrtovanje, tehnična prilagoditev opreme in programske podpore ter usposabljanje zaposlenih. Med možnostmi nadaljnjega razvoja smo predvideli uvajanje mobilnih aplikacij za delo v skladišču in uvedbo avtomatizirane inventure.Continuous improvement of warehouse processes is key to the efficient operation of a company, as it directly affects costs, deadlines and customer satisfaction. This diploma thesis analyses the introduction of a barcode system in a selected company, with the aim of improving inventory management as well as increasing the accuracy and traceability of warehouse operations. Based on the analysis of the existing situation, we have identified key shortcomings of the current procedures for ordering, receiving, storing and issuing materials, which mainly included a high level of manual work, long execution times and the possibility of errors. The implementation of a barcode system has been proposed as a solution to a higher level of process automation, faster and more reliable recording of items and better integration with inventory management software. The analysis of the proposal showed that the implementation of the barcode system would reduce errors, shorten the time for performing operations and enable real-time updating of inventories. Here, good planning, technical adaptation of equipment and software support as well as employee training would be essential for successful implementation of the proposed solution. Among the possibilities for further development, the introduction of mobile applications for warehouse work and the introduction of automated inventory have been envisaged

    V diplomskem delu raziskujemo predstavitev makedonske skupnosti v petih slovenskih medijih: 24ur.com, Siol.net, Žurnal24.si, Svet24.si in Metropolitan.si. Osredotočamo se na ton poročanja, prisotnost vizualnih elementov, tematsko vsebino ter prepričevalna sredstva. S kvantitativno in kvalitativno analizo ugotavljamo, kako so Makedonci kot skupnost prikazani v medijskem prostoru. Namen raziskave je bil prepoznati vzorce poročanja ter ovrednotiti, ali in kako ti vplivajo na javno podobo makedonske skupnosti v Sloveniji. Ugotovili smo, da mediji pogosto poročajo v negativnem ali nevtralnem tonu, prevladujejo tragične teme, vizualni elementi pa pogosto poudarjajo čustvene odzive. Rezultati lahko služijo kot osnova za spodbujanje bolj uravnoteženega poročanja o manjšinah.This thesis explores the representation of the Macedonian community in five Slovenian media outlets: 24ur.com, Siol.net, Žurnal24.si, Svet24.si and Metropolitan.si.

    Kolegialne hospitacije predstavljajo pomembno obliko profesionalnega učenja učiteljev, saj omogočajo razvoj pedagoške prakse skozi neposredno opazovanje in strokovno refleksijo. Temeljijo na sodelovanju med učitelji, kjer eden prevzame vlogo opazovalca, t. i. "kritičnega prijatelja", drugi pa vlogo opazovanega. Gre za vnaprej strukturiran proces, ki temelji na zaupanju ter spodbuja strokovno razpravo. Magistrsko delo obravnava kolegialne hospitacije kot obliko strokovnega sodelovanja med osnovnošolskimi učitelji, s poudarkom na izkušnjah, koristih, pogojih in ovirah, ki spremljajo ta proces. Namen raziskave je bil ugotoviti, kako pogosto učitelji sodelujejo pri kolegialnih hospitacijah, kako usposobljene se počutijo, katere dejavnike prepoznavajo kot ključne za uspeh in katere ovire jih pri tem omejujejo. V raziskavi je sodelovalo 312 učiteljev iz vse Slovenije. Podatki so bili zbrani z anketnim vprašalnikom in analizirani s pomočjo statističnega programa SPSS. Rezultati kažejo, da učitelji kolegialne hospitacije prepoznavajo kot orodje strokovnega razvoja, vendar se v praksi srečujejo s številnimi ovirami, kot so pomanjkanje časa, strah pred ocenjevanjem in neustrezna priprava. Opazovalci pogosto občutijo negotovost pri dajanju povratne informacije, opazovani pa stres in visoka pričakovanja. Kljub izzivom večina učiteljev izraža pripravljenost za sodelovanje, zlasti če so jasno opredeljeni cilji, podprti s konstruktivno povratno informacijo in strokovnim dialogom. Delo ponuja vpogled v aktualno prakso in predlaga pogoje za uspešnejšo uvedbo kolegialnih hospitacij v osnovnošolskem prostoru.Peer observation is an important form of professional learning for teachers, as it enables the development of pedagogical practice through direct observation and professional reflection. It is based on collaboration between teachers, where one takes on the role of observer - the so-called "critical friend", and the other takes on the role of the observed. It is a pre-structured process that is based on trust and encourages professional discussion. The master\u27s thesis examines peer observation as a form of professional cooperation between primary school teachers, with an emphasis on the experiences, benefits, conditions and obstacles that accompany this process. The purpose of the research was to determine how often teachers participate in peer observation, how qualified they feel, which factors they recognize as key to success, and what obstacles limit them in doing so. 312 teachers from all over Slovenia participated in the research. Data was collected using a questionnaire and analysed using the statistical program SPSS. The results show that teachers recognize peer observation as a tool for professional development, but in practice they encounter numerous obstacles, such as lack of time, fear of assessment, and inadequate preparation. Observers often feel uncertain about giving feedback, and the observed experience stress and high expectations. Despite the challenges, most teachers express a willingness to participate, especially if goals are clearly defined, supported by constructive feedback and professional dialogue. The work offers insight into current practice and suggests conditions for a more successful introduction of peer observation in primary schools

    Onkološki inštitut Ljubljana ima zelo obsežen informacijski sistem, ki ga je potrebno nenehno ažurirati. Uporabnikov je veliko, prav tako pa računalnikov. Problem, ki smo ga reševali v sklopu diplomske naloge, je bil menjava operacijskih sistemov Windows 7 z operacijskimi sistemi Windows 10. Predpostavljali smo, da bo to rešilo kar nekaj težav, tako varnostnih kot tudi drugih. Tako bo optimizirano delo zaposlenih, pa tudi delo informatikov. Med nastajanjem te naloge smo si ogledali, kako si lahko z raznimi bližnjicami in programi olajšamo delo. Najprej smo poiskali vse računalnike s starim operacijskim sistemom, nato smo preverili, kje se znotraj Onkološkega inštituta Ljubljana nahajajo in kdo jih uporablja. Po pregledu smo pripravili paket programov, ki jih potrebuje uporabnik, da se lahko izvede menjava. Po njej lahko uporabnik nemoteno opravlja svoje delo. Prikazali smo tudi nastavitve na sistemih, ki jih uporabljajo informatiki na Onkološkem inštitutu Ljubljana za optimalno delo računalnika. Nazadnje smo opisali tudi menjavo računalnika ter urejanje delovnega prostora in kablov ter prenos podatkov.The Institute of Oncology has a very extensive information system that needs to be constantly updated. There are many users as well as computers. The problem addressed in this thesis was the replacement of Windows 7 operating systems with Windows 10. We assumed that this upgrade would resolve several issues, both security-related and others. This transition would optimize the work of employees as well as IT staff. During the course of this thesis, we explored various shortcuts and programs that could simplify the process. First, we identified all computers running the old operating system, then determined their locations within the Oncology Institute and who was using them. After this assessment, we prepared a package of necessary programs to facilitate the transition, ensuring that users could continue their work seamlessly. We also demonstrated system settings used by IT staff at The Institute of Oncology to optimize computer performance. Finally, we described the process of replacing computers, organizing the workspace, managing cables, and transferring data

    Hiperkinetična motnja vedenja je pogosta nevrološko-razvojna motnja, ki se pri otrocih kaže kot hiperaktivnost, impulzivnost, motnje pozornosti in socialne težave. Negativno vpliva na otrokovo delovanje v šoli in družini ter povzroča stres in čustveno izčrpanost staršev. Namen zaključnega dela je preučiti ta vpliv. Uporabili smo deskriptivno metodo dela. Znanstveno literaturo smo iskali v mednarodnih podatkovnih bazah PubMed, CINAHL Ultimate in Web of Science, in sicer s pomočjo iskalnega niza. Upoštevali smo smernice PRISMA. Vključene članke smo prikazali v evalvacijski tabeli in jih vsebinsko analizirali. Izmed 447 raziskav smo jih v končno analizo vključili 10. Ugotovili smo, da motnja pri otroku bistveno zmanjšuje kakovost življenja družine. Pri vsebinski analizi smo določili glavno kategorijo in tri podkategorije: (1) razvojne in vedenjske posledice, (2) čustvene in socialne posledice v družinskem okolju ter (3) družinske obremenitve in prilagoditve. Hiperkinetična motnja vedenja pri otroku močno obremeni družino, povzroča stres ter zahteva prilagajanje in podporo. Ključne so jasne rutine in sodelovanje s strokovnjaki. Celosten pristop, ki vključuje otroka in družino, izboljšuje kakovost življenja vseh članov.Hyperkinetic disorder is a common neurodevelopmental condition in children, characterized by hyperactivity, impulsivity, attention deficits, and social difficulties. It negatively affects the child\u27s functioning at school and within the family, and causes stress and emotional exhaustion for parents. The purpose of this thesis is to examine its impact. We used the descriptive research method. Scientific literature was searched in international databases PubMed, CINAHL Ultimate, and Web of Science using a search string. We followed the PRISMA guidelines. The articles were presented in an evaluation table and analyzed thematically. Out of 447 studies, 10 were included in the final analysis. We found that the disorder in the child significantly reduces the quality of life of the family. In the thematic analysis, we identified one main category and three subcategories: (1) developmental and behavioral consequences, (2) emotional and social impacts within the family environment, and (3) family burdens and adaptations. Hyperkinetic disorder in a child places a significant burden on the family, causing stress and requiring adaptation and support. Clear routines and collaboration with professionals are essential. A holistic approach that includes both the child and the family improves the quality of life for all family members

    Exploring resilience through a systems lens

    As organizations become increasingly projectified, safeguarding the resilience of project professionals and teams emerges as a critical organizational challenge. Adopting a systems lens, we investigate how agile mindsets and agile practices function as systemic antecedents of resilience at the individual and team levels. Eleven semi-structured interviews with experienced project managers, product owners, and team members from diverse industries were analyzed through inductive thematic coding and system mapping. The findings show that mindset supplies psychological resources—self-efficacy, openness and a learning orientation—while practices such as team autonomy, iterative delivery and transparent communication provide structural routinestogether they trigger five interlocking mechanisms: empowerment, fast responsiveness, holistic team dynamics, stakeholder-ecosystem engagement and continuous learning. These mechanisms reinforce one another in feedback loops that boost a project system’s adaptive capacity under volatility. The synergy of mindset and practices is especially valuable in hybrid or traditionally governed projects, where cognitive agility offsets structural rigidity. This study offers the first multi-level, systems-based explanation of agile antecedents of resilience and delivers actionable levers for executives, transformation leaders, project professionals, and HR specialists aiming to sustain talent performance in turbulent contexts
