The Influence of the Educational Atmosphere on the Academic Achievement of Younger Elementary School Students
type: item
description: Abstract: The aim of this study was to systematically examine the impact of the educational atmosphere in primary schools on the academic achievement of younger grade students. The research was conducted on a sample of 35 teachers with significant pedagogical experience, of whom 94% were female, and over 60% had more than 15 years of teaching experience in primary education. The methodological approach included descriptive analysis and theoretical synthesis, using a survey as the primary data collection tool. The initial hypothesis posited that key elements of the educational climate in the school environment — including the quality of teaching and educational work, cooperation between school and family, continuous professional development of teachers, and fostering values such as tolerance and safety — positively correlate with students’ academic success. Results show that 87% of teachers believe that good cooperation with students, parents, and colleagues has the most significant impact on academic achievement, while 73% emphasize the importance of respecting the individuality of students. Conversely, only 45% consider that the school’s material and technical equipment has a direct influence on student success. These findings confirm that the school, in addition to its fundamental educational function, plays a crucial role in the upbringing and personal development of students. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of the interdisciplinary aspects of the educational atmosphere as a key factor in the quality of school education and encourages the integration of family and school educational strategies.

Students' and Teachers' Views on the Levels and General Assessment of Student Participation in Educational Work in Secondary School
type: item
description: Extended summary: The specificities of culture and the conditions that determine it are significant for the characteristics of existing participatory processes of a society, which are reflected in the process of education and upbringing. Student participation in the educational process should teach students to express their opinions, respect others, choose between different options before making a decision, to seek, receive and give information in different ways, to cooperate in solving problems and take activities in all matters and actions that concern them. The pedagogical phenomenon of student participation is a problem that is being explored by researchers from different meridians, with the aim of deepening the level of student participation. The aim of the research is to examine the quality of existing student participation in secondary school, through the views of students and teachers on the most frequently represented levels of participation and (self-)assessment of the participation of manifested forms of student behavior. The research was conducted using a questionnaire containing the modified Hart Participation Scale. The results, processed with descriptive statistics and t-test, show that the most common level of student participation in regular classes is decoration, in extracurricular activities it is consultation and joint decision-making. There are significant differences in the assessment of the degree of representation of consultation with students, to which teachers assign higher values. In regular classes, as the next represented level of participation, students single out the level of manipulation, and teachers, significantly differently from students, consultation. Both students and teachers value student participation in the educational process as good. It is necessary to intensify the professional development of teachers in the domain of children's rights and competences for teaching and learning, supporting the development of students' pers…

Working Environment in Rural Schools: Burnout Syndrome and Professional Stress – Differences Between Teachers Working in Single-Class and Multi-Class Classrooms
type: item
description: Агенда 2030 и Циљеви одрживог развоја (SDGs) наглашавају значај квалитетног образовања и улогу наставника у његовом остварењу. Наставници у руралним школама често се суочавају са специфичним изазовима у радној средини, што може прозроковати професионални стрес и синдром сагоријевања, те негативно утицати на њихове професионалне способности и академска постигнућа ученика. Циљ овог истраживања је да се испита разлика у радном окружењу, професионалном стресу и синдрому сагоријевања наставника који раде у једноразредним и вишеразредним одјељењима руралних школа Користио се упитник који се сатојао од података о социодемографским и радним карактеристикама, односу према раду, задовољству радним окружењем, професионалном стресу (Карасеков упитник) и синдрому сагоријевања ( Копенхаген упитник за испитивање синдрома сагоријевања). Учествовало је 225 наставника који раде у руралним школама у Републици Српској. У вишеразредним одјељењима, више од 60% наставника пријављује синдром сагијоревања, а у једноразредим око 48%. У обје групе настаника само мали проценат наставника пријављује професионални стрес (6% и 9%). Није доказана статистички значајна разлика између наставника у вишеразредним и једноразредним одељењима у погледу односа према раду. Утврђена је статистички значајне разлике у задовољству послом, активношћу и ангажманом ученика и напретком бивших ученика. Резултати истраживања показују да је индром ссагоревања присутан код значајног броја наставника у руралним школама, посебно код оних који раде у вишеразредним одељењима. Наставници у руралним школама генерално не пријављују висок ниво стреса, што може бити посљедица културолошких и социјалних фактора који утичу на начин перцепције и изражавања стреса. У цјелини, резултати указују да, иако наставници у вишеразредним одјељењима изражавају веће задовољство неким кључним аспектима наставе, попут професионалног испуњења и напретка ученика однос према раду и перцепција сопстевних компетенција је слична код наставника у више…

Self-Assessments of Moral Development Levels in Primary School Students in Relation to Their Sociopedagogical Characteristics
type: item
description: Moral development in primary school students represents a fundamental aspect of their overall development, shaping how children understand the concepts of good, evil, justice, respect, and responsibility. During their primary school years, students undergo significant changes in their thinking, behavior, and social relationships, which are largely influenced by their immediate environment—family, school, peers, and the broader community. The goal of this study is to determine whether there is a difference in the level of moral development among students based on their socio-educational characteristics. These characteristics include the student's gender and the grade level they are attending.The research was conducted with a sample of 1,203 students from the eighth and ninth grades of primary schools in the city of Banja Luka. Data were collected using the Moral Development Level Scale (MDLS), which was specifically designed for the purpose of this research. The results revealed a statistically significant difference in favor of female students when it comes to self-assessment of their moral development level. While students in lower grades performed better, the differences were not statistically significant. These findings are important for guiding future educational practices and further studies on the moral development of children.Moral development in children plays a crucial role in their overall growth and maturation, influencing their ability to navigate social situations, interact with others, and make ethical decisions. As students transition through the primary school years, their moral reasoning becomes increasingly sophisticated, influenced by both internal factors, such as cognitive growth, and external factors, such as the values imparted by teachers, family members, and peers.The family plays an essential role in shaping the moral foundations of children, as it is the first environment where children learn the values and norms that guide their behavior.…

A Manual for Learning Serbian as a Foreign Language from the Pen of a Lecturer: A Case Study of the Private School “Go Speak Serbian”
type: item
description: The subject of this paper is an analysis of the manual Worksheet Booklet: Serbian Study Materials for All 3 Levels, published by the private school “Go Speak Serbianˮ. Тhe aim is to provide a clearer assessment of its quality and its place in contemporary Serbian as a foreign language instruction. The study employs the method of theoretical analysis combined with content analysis. The research has shown that the manual is designed as a workbook comprising fifty lessons, each dedicated to alternating grammatical exercises, vocabulary expansion, and the exploration of cultural aspects of life in Serbian-speaking regions. The manual is neither catalogued nor peer-reviewed, yet its quality nonetheless warrants the attention of instructors. There is no doubt that, through its content and didactic-methodological approach, it represents a valuable teaching resource that: 1) Enriches Serbian as a foreign language instruction, 2) Demonstrates the professional competence and dedication of its authors, and 3) Reflects the development of Serbian as a foreign language pedagogy–considering that, in the past, it was nearly unthinkable for two or three authors to independently conceive, prepare, and publish such a manual.

Possibilities for motivation in the introduction of Serbian Language lessons in lower primary school grades and the importance of the teacher's personality in shaping the students' character
type: item
description: Motivation is a key factor in the educational process, especially in Serbian language classes, which involve creative production and shaping of students' character. Successful motivation entails a balanced application of both intrinsic (internal) and extrinsic (external) incentives. Students who are driven by internal motivators, such as curiosity and enthusiasm, demonstrate a higher degree of independence in learning but still require teacher support in the form of praise and positive feedback. External incentives, such as verbal encouragement and praise, play a crucial role in the development of younger students, but they must be balanced with intrinsic motivations to foster a lasting interest in learning. The teacher's personality is of particular importance in the motivation process, as the teacher's attitude, methods, and approach directly influence the development of students' self-confidence and autonomy. The teacher’s understanding of students’ needs, along with the ability to create a creative and stimulating atmosphere, contributes to shaping the students' character in line with educational and developmental goals. The environment in which this process takes place—including school, family, and community—also plays a significant role in motivation, especially by promoting intercultural values and fostering a collaborative atmosphere in the classroom.

SPEECH DISORDER MEDIATOR IN INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION
type: item
description: A speech disorder, in general, means all disturbances in speech functioning that disrupt verbal communication in any way, regardless of what they are caused by and how they manifest. It is usually considered that a speech disorder does not represent a "severe pathology". Bearing in mind that verbal communication is a complex psycho-social phenomenon, it can affect the functioning of an individual in the psycho-social field. However, in the psychological and psychiatric literature, the study of this problem is given marginal importance, so the interest in them is quite superficial. A speech disorder such as impaired articulation and fluency gives any clearly formed message by the speaker a "new look" that impairs its clarity on the way to the interlocutor. Speech distortion is a disturbing factor in the communicative process and can be presented hierarchically depending on the degree of disturbed production. Advancement of knowledge in this field is needed above all in terms of scientific and practical action in connection with speech and language disorders. Research should indicate the importance of adequate diagnostic procedures that contribute to the improvement of therapeutic procedures as well as the prevention of communicative disorders and disorders.

SAINT SAVA'S CELEBRATION OF SERBIAN SCHOOLS IN THE BITOL VILAYET FROM 1898 TO 1912
type: item
description: Summary: The paper is about the Svetosava celebrations of Serbian schools in the Bitola province in the period from 1898 to 1912 and the impact of those celebrations on preserving tradition, raising national awareness and maintaining the basic spiritual values ​​of the Serbian people in this area. After the closure of Serbian schools and the expulsion of teachers during the Great Eastern Crisis, permission for their reopening in the Bitola Province was obtained only in March 1897. The Serbian people celebrated all Christian holidays and thus raised their national spirit. Of all the festivities, those dedicated to the first Serbian archbishop, enlightener and teacher St. Sava stood out. We tried to describe the program and the way of celebrating this extremely important date of Serbian history based on preserved archival material, reports of correspondents of the Constantinople Herald and relevant literature. These celebrations showed that the cultural life of the Serbs in Turkey had not died down. In these celebrations and keeping other traditions, the Serbian people looked for hope that was taken from them from all sides. On the basis of the mentioned documents, it can be concluded that the Saint Sava cult was very strong among the Serbian population in the Bitola province, despite the opposition of the Turkish authorities and the pressures of the Bulgarian exarchate established in this territory. Non-recognition of Serbian nationality and pressure from all sides united Serbs in order to defend and preserve their customs. Saint Sava celebrations in Serbian schools in the Bitola province are a confirmation of the Serbian population's awareness of its roots and existence. The desire of the Serbian population to mark this holiday as worthy as possible represents its quiet but persistent resistance to imposed problems. The diversity in solving problems showed its spiritual strength and vitality even after centuries of stay under Turkish rule.

PEDAGOGICAL APPROACHES THAT CONNECT MUSIC AND MATHEMATICS
type: item
description: Summary: The starting point of the publication is considering methods of music education that potentiate an early music stimulation and the possibility of their implementation and integration in the formation and development of initial mathematical concepts. Aspiration to connect two seemingly incompatible disciplines, music and maths, opens questions whose goal is to find adequate pedagogical approaches that would be in the function of music and mathematics education and achievement, but also the overall development of children. Applying the method of theoretical analysis, a comparison was made among different conceptual approaches, the results of the conducted research and the authors’ conclusions. After considering the aforementioned questions, it was concluded that the considered methods emphasize the importance of an early development in the formation of a person and start from the premise that the potential and the environment enable the children to build themselves. Organising an environment that allows children the freedom by acting through organised and spontaneous activities in kindergarten and school can contribute to children’s musical and mathematical development. Also, connecting musical and mathematical contents with each other, as well as conecting them with everyday activities and setting learning situations in a context that is close and familiar to children, and with the contents of other areas of education and upbringing, provides the basis for successful learning of music and mathematics. Pedagogical implications are contained in aforementioned recommendations for a proper approach to connecting musical and mathematical content and creating a stimulating environment. Future research should be focused on examining and improving the competencies of professionals – teachers and nursery-school teachers, which would be in the function of music and mathematics education and achievement, but also the overall development of children.

Comparative Analysis of Reading Comprehension in Educational Systems of Dinaric Region
type: item
description: Educational systems around the world are continuously improving their policies and strategic documents, aiming to improve the curricula. The same approach can be noticed in the countries of so called “Dinaric region” (Western Balkan countries + Croatia + Slovenia). One of the most common strategic direction is work on development of students' language literacy. It is implemented through teachers work, but it must be evaluated through testing of student achievements at national level and through international educational studies, as PIRLS. The aim of this research paper is to explore the possibilities how national curriculums in in six educational systems of dinaric countries deals with language literacy and the development of reading skills. We also compare those curricula and try to find the reasons that may also affect students achievement. Despite the conclusion that time recommended mother language classes in dinaric countries is similar and within the limits of the average time in other European countries, teaching effects are not the same.

The Relationship of Developmental Disorder of Articulation and Oral Praxis
type: item
description: Articulation disorder is a developmental disorder that manifests itself in the early development period. It can arise due to a primary disorder such as anatomical deviations and sensory disorders, but they can also exist without any clear cause as a specific articulation disorder, most often related to the immaturity of oral praxis. The aim of the work is to determine the frequency of articulation disorders and its relationship with oral praxis in preschool children. The sample consisted of children of preschool age, of both sexes, with typical development (N=60). The quality of voice pronunciation was determined based on the Triage Articulation Test, while oral praxis was examined using the Oral Praxis Test. It was found that a large number of the examined children have a disorder in the pronunciation of one voice or several voices. A statistically significant correlation was found between immature oral praxis and articulation disorders (ρ=0.364; p=0.004). Although there is a significant association between articulation disorder and immature oral praxis, without evaluating other possible causes, it cannot be confidently asserted that immature oral praxis is the cause of developmental articulation disorder.

type: item
description: The article actualizes the idea of naturalness in the context of modern pedagogical theory and educational practice. The article characterizes the peculiarities of ideas about the conformity of nature from the standpoint of three dimensions: pedagogical, historical, pedagogical and general scientific. The essence of nature-based education is revealed and its distinctive features are revealed in the system of pedagogical concepts and ideologically close pedagogical directions, such as folk, free, natural, personality-oriented, health-saving, ecological, noospheric education. The content and semantic multidimensionality of the pedagogical phenomenon and the relevance of its ideas in the context of new challenges of modernity are determined. The article substantiates the role of nature-based education in activating the human factor, stimulating environmental, resource-saving thinking and behavior of the younger generation and contributing to the formation of an integral and harmonious personality capable of creative creation and self-realization in conditions of uncertainty and complexity of the external environment.

Psychological Problems of Children and Young People in the Digital World
type: item
description: In the modern world, the influence of the Internet and information technologies is very large, and the age limit of users is getting lower and lower. For this reason, the issue of impact on children's development and behavior is fully expected. The views of scientists and the public are divided, and the more new media communications develop, the more evidence there is of their negative impact. The aim of the paper is to review the basic characteristics of the influence of the Internet, computer games and other media on children and young people, as well as the psychological problems that may arise. It is even considered that excessive use of modern communication technology contributes to changing our traditional, immediate interpersonal relationships, partnership, peer and parent-child relationships, which are being damaged. This can contribute to the emergence of new "role models" found on the Internet because the Internet, television and other media shape the psyche of modern children who spend 5 to 10 times more with them than in activities with their parents. Today's young people who are on the Internet for hours every day often do not know how to listen to each other, they are impatient to express what they want. They lack essential social skills to navigate the real social environment because they do not have enough opportunities to develop the power of empathy in direct contact with their loved ones. Instead of live chat, they exchange messages and pictures. Digital violence is particularly widespread on social networks among young people and children, precisely because they do not have developed empathy, emotional and social intelligence, and therefore are not aware of the consequences of their inappropriate social behavior on other people. Digital communication is fast and efficient for the exchange of information, it brings many conveniences in everyday life and work, but it lacks immediacy and monitoring the feedback of the interlocutors, both verbal and …

Mathematics concept building with didactic games in a GeoGebra-empowered environment
type: item
description: In this study, we examine how GeoGebra software can be used for organizing a game-based learning environment and its impact on fraction concept building and the students’ understanding of the concept. The learning/instruction process was organized in two groups of 9 to 10 years old students. The experimental group was offered GeoGebra game-like applets and the learning process was based on them. The control group students learned the same subject material in a more traditional fashion. Students’ understanding of the concept was assessed using results of regular tests they enrolled in the same environments they were learning. According to the results, the experimental group students demonstrated better understanding of the concepts, and the difference is statistically significant. This implies that GeoGebra software combined with the game-based learning can give better results in building and understanding fractions at initial stages.

SPIRITUAL DEATH AS THE INDIVIDUALIZED FATE OF THE CHARACTERS IN THE STORIES OF A. P. CHEKHOV AND LAZA K. LAZAREVIĆ
type: item
description: Abstract: The main research object of this study was to examine the spiritual death of the hero, perceived as a theme and the individualized fate of the characters in the short stories of A. P. Chekhov and Laze K. Lazarevic. In the introductory part of the study, we point out that medical, philosophical and literary interpretations of thanatology and thanatological motives are closely related to the concept of the spiritual death of the hero. In the central part of the work, the concept of spiritual death is first explained as an incurable state of neurosis, depression, stress and post-traumatic conditions, which contribute to the emergence of depersonalization, derealization and chronic depression disorders.The second part of the central part of the paper provides an insight into specific examples of heroes to whom the concept of spiritual death can be linked in the stories of Chekhov and Lazarevic. In the final part, the similarities and differences in the story-telling process of the two authors are pointed out, when the topic of spiritual death as the fate of the hero is in question.

Fable, scenical structure and its usage in teaching
type: item
description: Summari Тhis paper focuses on the study of the fable as a literary genre and its importance in teaching. A fable is a short story that usually uses personified animals to convey a moral lesson or life wisdom. It combines simple form, dramatic structure and specific style to effectively convey its message. The fable has a long history and its origins go back thousands of years. Over the centuries, fables have evolved and changed, but they have retained their basic characteristics. Their popularity has remained high because of their ability to entertain, educate and provoke thought among readers. The dramatic structure of a fable includes an introduction, a plot, a climax and a denouement.In the introduction, the characters are introduced and the basic situation is set. The plot brings a conflict or problem that is resolved during the climax, and the denouement brings the moral or conclusion of the story. Fables are known for their simplicity, aphorism, and use of allegories. Their style is characterized by clarity, conciseness and dialogic expression. Fables often use the personification of animals to get closer to the readers and make it easier to understand the moral lesson. In teaching, fables play an important role in the education and moral development of students. Through reading and analyzing fables, students can develop critical thinking, moral values, empathy and language skills.Fables can be used as a tool for discussion, essay writing, dramatization or illustration, thus encouraging creativity and active participation of students.
