Stavovi studenata prema primjeni mobilne proŔirene stvarnosti u visokom obrazovanju
Virtual (VR) and augmented reality (AR) have emerged from the
framework of academic and industrial laboratories and have
acquired global attention. Currently, the focus shifted from the
technologies themselves to finding adequate teaching and
learning applications. In this paper, the students\u27 attitudes toward
the application of mobile AR (MAR) in higher education (HE)
were researched (with a focus on augmented textbooks). The
results showed that the students have a mostly positive attitude,
and it is concluded that there was no statistically significant
difference between the STEM (science, technology, engineering,
and mathematics) and non-STEM students\u27 opinions regarding
this topic. Based on the results, the further research and
integration of this technology into HE settings can be suggested.Virtualna i proŔirena stvarnost izaŔle su iz okvira
akademskih i industrijskih laboratorija i stekle su globalnu
pozornost. TrenutaÄno se fokus pomaknuo sa samih
tehnologija prema pronalaženju odgovarajuÄe primjene u
pouÄavanju i uÄenju. U ovom radu istraživani su stavovi
studenata o primjeni mobilne proŔirene stvarnosti u visokom
obrazovanju (s naglaskom na augmentiranim udžbenicima). Rezultati su pokazali da studenti imaju uglavnom pozitivan
stav, a zakljuÄeno je i da ne postoji statistiÄki znaÄajna
razlika u miÅ”ljenju izmeÄu STEM (znanost, tehnologija,
inženjerstvo i matematika) i ne-STEM studenata o ovoj temi.
Na temelju rezultata istraživanja mogu se predložiti daljnja
istraživanja i integracija ove tehnologije u postavke visokog
obrazovanja
Teachersā views of inclusive education in Serbian schools
This study was conducted to determine the attitudes of teachers concerning inclusion in schools all over Serbia. The respondents were teachers of different subjects who were tasked to anonymously complete the provided closed-type questionnaire (970 respondents). Primary and secondary school teachers from urban and rural areas of the Republic of Serbia participated in the research. The results indicate that the teachers are supportive of inclusion. Despite significant differences in respondentsā answers, the results of the research show that there are many similarities in teacher responses toward inclusive education. The results show that it is still necessary to work on the implementation of inclusive education in Serbia, especially to educate the teaching staff and involve experts in the planning and development of individual educational plans.Keywords: attitudes; inclusive education; Serbia; teacher
Is the Integrative Teaching Approach Beneficial for Learning?
Environmental protection contents are characterized by a wide range of interdisciplinarity. They are realized separately within the teaching of biology and geography (5thā8th grade) in elementary school in Serbia. Numerous concepts and facts are similar, especially within the content Nature Protection. The application of an integrative teaching approach in the realization of environmental protection contents in elementary schools was investigated. Pedagogical experiment with parallel groups of elementary school students was conducted by applying integrative teaching approach in the experimental (E) and traditional approach in control (C) groups of students. The data were obtained through the pre-test and post-test. Integrative teaching approach has proven to be effective in the realization of the above-mentioned program contents
The development of transport infrastructure and attitudes of the local population: a case study from the Republic of Serbia
In the last decades, the development of transport infrastructure has been necessary because of the population increase and expansion of urban centres. Infrastructure development leads to modification and changes in areas characterized by high human population density. The lack of adequate transport infrastructure inhibits local economic and social performance. In the period of economic stability (from 1970 to 1990), important roads that increased the connectedness of the Kolubara District (Western Serbia) with other parts of the country and the surrounding countries were built, but there is still a need for the construction of new roads. In order to examine the attitude of the local population in regard to transport infrastructure, a survey was conducted using a questionnaire consisting of closed questions. This topic is one that has not previously been examined. The data obtained were analyzed statistically and showed that local people have a positive attitude towards the existing infrastructure and towards the construction of new roads. There are statistically significant differences between the attitudes of the local population in different municipalities. The results from this research offer an opportunity to develop guidelines which can influence traffic development in these and similar areas
Attitudes of university students towards institution of a marriage
Until recently, marriage was the only socially acceptable community ofĀ two partners ofĀ different gender, with the goal ofĀ creating aĀ family and prolonging the human race. The aim ofĀ this paper is to examine the attitudes ofĀ University students towards marriage and family. The research was based on the survey regarding the attitudes ofĀ students from the University ofĀ Novi Sad, Serbia towards institution ofĀ marriage. Collected data were analysed by using the SPSS statistical software. The main results indicate that 93.8% ofĀ respondents want to get married one day; an ideal number ofĀ children for aĀ family to have been two (48.4%); 54.6% ofĀ respondents strongly agreed that if being in aĀ marriage does not work properly, they should divorce. The results ofĀ these analyses and their limitations suggest guiding aĀ future research according to different attitudes ofĀ respondents. This research provides the most ambitious and systematic analysis to date the attitudinal evidence on the attitudes ofĀ family, future children, and divorce among University students

Primary Education in Serbia and Czechia. Are There Similarities?
In Serbia, primary education is compulsory, and it lasts eight years with two educational cycles, while in the Czech Republic, primary education lasts nine years with three cycles. Analysis of the teachers` attitudes toward primary education in Serbia and the Czech Republic has a goal to determine the current educational state in the two countries. Also, in this research it has been shown if there are similarities, as well as differences between the two educational systems. Views of the teachers on this topic are significant for this paper, so the survey was used as an instrument. The survey should have revealed whether the primary education was in line with the need of modernization and enhancement of young pepleās intellectual potential. It was necessary to reveal if the education in the two countries is in accordance with the modern world and whether the teachers agree with this. One of the aims of the research was to determine whether there are statistically significant differences in the teachersā answers and to relate those differences to the general educational situation in Serbia and Czechia
