Towards True Process Descriptions Interoperability
The article describes a part of our research in the area of (business) process modeling, analysis and execution. It describes the current state of process languages and standards. It concentrates on the process model interoperability and portability problems, caused because of huge number of process modeling standards, which often do not even target the same conceptual level of process modeling. It provides an idea how to bring together those standards, using process concepts mapping into Petri nets and incorporating the usage of process patterns. Transformation to strictly formal process languages has a potential to prove itself as a fair solution with the following advantages: the number of mappings among different process languages is reduced and the process model can be analyzed using proven Petri Net or general graph algorithms. Development of the approach is still in its early phase. Mapping rules to/from process patterns are neither strictly defined nor trivial, therefore, they will be the main focus of our future research
STUDENTSKA SAMOPROCJENA KOMPETENCIJA RAZVIJENIH TIJEKOM PREZENTACIJA SEMINARA NA ONLINE PROGRAMU
The purpose of this article is to present the results of studentsā self-evaluations of their developed presentation competences during their seminar presentations as a part of both a human resource course and an organizational dynamic course in the online master program International Management. Video pedagogy employed in the courses was assessed and its effect on competency development was questioned.
The main research question was which aspects of presentation competence the students develop while delivering, watching and discussing online presentations, according to their self-assessments. The methodology of self-assessment of the gained competences questioned the development course-embedded presentation competence in a virtual learning environment. A questionnaire was sent to all students attending the courses during two academic years. Students rated their acquired skills on the 7-point Likert scale. The results proved hypothesis that students had developed their online presentation competences and that they had become more self-confident.
The course designers gained the feedback regarding the collaborative tool, course organization and original aim to develop presentation skills in the virtual classroom. Improvement of these exercises, meaning instruction, design, and feedback will be employed the following next year.Svrha ovog rada je prikazati rezultate samoevaluacije studenata, u kojoj su studenti evaluirali razvoj svojih prezentacijskih kompetencija na kolegijima ljudski resursi i organizacijska dinamika, održanim na online specijalistiÄkom programu MeÄunarodni menadžment na DOBA Fakultetu. Procijenjena je video pedagogija tih kolegija i propitan njen utjecaj na razvoj kompetencija.
Glavno istraživaÄko pitanje je koji vidovi prezentacijskih kompetencija studenti razvijaju prezentirajuÄi, sudjelujuÄi i diskutirajuÄi tijekom online prezentiranja, a prema vlastitim procjenama. Metodom samoprocjene propituju su steÄene prezentacijske kompetencije u virtualnom obrazovnom okruženju. Upitnik je bio poslan svim studentima koji su sudjelovali na navedenim kolegijima tijekom dvije akademske godine. Studenti su ocjenjivali svoje steÄene vjeÅ”tine na 7 stupanjskoj Likertovoj skali. Rezultati su potvrdili hipotezu da su studenti stekli online prezentacijske kompetencije i poveÄali svoj samopouzdanje.
Dizajneri obrazovnog sadržaja dobili su povratnu informaciju o suradniÄkom alatu, organizaciji kolegija i originalnom cilju da razviju prezentacijske vjeÅ”tine u virtualnoj uÄionici. PoboljÅ”anje koriÅ”tenih vježbi, konkretno uputa, dizajna i povratnih informacija, provest Äe se iduÄe akademske godine
Impact of Tipping on Workersā Motivation: Comparison between the Hospitality and Gaming Industries in Slovenia
The main goal of the article is to explore the impact of various typesof tipping on the motivation of workers in the Slovenian hospitalityand gaming industry, and to develop a model ā on the basis of thefindings ā for distributing tips among workers in order to increasetheir motivation.The main finding of the reseach is that employees in the Sloveniancompanies with a regulated system of tip distribution tend to be bettermotivated and treat their guests better than their colleagues in unregulatedenvironments. On the other hand, employees in the hospitalityindustry are less motivated by tips than their colleagues in the gamingindustry, despite receiving individual tips directly.The underlying reason for this difference is that companies in the hospitalityindustry generally do not apply distribution methods for tips,and employees are directly entitled to each tip. Tips are received insmall (daily) amounts. Meanwhile, employees in the gaming industryreceive their tips together with their monthly salaries. Therefore, westate that the model and the process of tips distribution greatly influencethe motivation of the employees
Uticaj napojnice (bakÅ”iÅ”a) na motivaciju radnika: poreÄenje zaposlenih u ugostiteljstu i industriji igara na sreÄu u Sloveniji
Osnovni cilj rada je da istraži uticaj razliÄitih vrsta napojnica (bakÅ”iÅ”a)na motivaciju radnika u slovenaÄkom hotelijerstvu i industrijiigara na sreÄu, i da razvije model - na osnovu nalaza istraživanja - zadistribuciju napojnice meÄu radnicima kako bi se poveÄala njihovamotivacija.Glavni nalaz istraživanja je da zaposleni u slovenaÄkim preduzeÄimasa ureÄenim sistemom distribucije napojnice imaju tendenciju dabudu bolje motivisani i tretiraju svoje goste bolje od svojih kolega uneregulisanim sredinama. S druge strane, zaposleni u ugostiteljstvusu manje motivisani za napojnicu od svojih kolega u oblasti igara nasreÄu, iako im se individualne napojnice daju direktno.Osnovni razlog za ovu razliku je to Å”to kompanije u ugostiteljstvuobiÄno ne primenjuju metode distribucije napojnica, a zaposlenimaje dato direktno pravo na svaku napojnicu. Napojnice su primljene(dnevno) u malim iznosima. U meÄuvremenu, zaposleni u ovoj industrijiprimaju napojnice, zajedno sa svojim meseÄnim platama. Zbogtoga, možemo reÄi da model i proces distribucije napojnica u velikojmeri utiÄe na motivaciju zaposlenih
