O čitalačkim navikama srednjoškolaca i nastavi književnosti

The introductory part of the paper discusses the changed reading habits of children and young people, conditioned by various factors - the development of modern technologies, the use of the Internet, constant reading of various content from numerous screens, changed thought patterns, accelerated time, etc. Such a context leaves little room for reading books and other printed publications, especially the so-called fine literature (fiction). For this reason, our research focus is on the attitude of high school students towards books and reading within the framework of teaching literature, and beyond, in the sphere of private life. The aim is to examine their reading habits and attitudes about books and reading in order to - by comparing the obtained data with the results of the similar research - determine the nature of the changes that have occurred in the meantime, and that new knowledge can be used to create serious, fact-based, methodological strategies for improving the current analyzed situation. The central part of the paper offers the presentation of the research conducted on a sample of 1177 students from 13 high schools in the area of the cities of Nis and Novi Pazar, conducted in late 2018 and early 2019. An anonymous questionnaire was used to collect and then interpret the data on students' family and school habits related to books and reading, their attitude towards school compulsory reading lists, libraries, e-books and online literature, as well as creativity and literature studies.

Činioci i mehanizmi očuvanja i afirmacije srpske strateške kulture

The paper discusses the issue of preservation and affirmation of the Serbian strategic culture with the aim of identifying some of the key factors and mechanisms that influence its articulation. As national culture represents a broader ideational basis of strategic culture, the case of the Serbian nation points to certain factors of national culture (literary heritage, history and geography) that determine the access to the issues of the use of force and war. When it comes to social institutions that have an impact on the education and behavior of individuals, and thus on preservation and affirmation of strategic culture, according to the criterion of contribution in this field, educational and media institutions are the most important. Therefore, the subject of this paper consists of presenting the way of articulating these factors of the Serbian strategic culture through educational and media institutions. The consideration of the role of these institutions also includes the presentation of the results of the research on the state of security culture among young people in the Republic of Serbia. The significance of this research stems from the fact that, among other things, it provides insights into the attitudes of high school students regarding the contributions of educational and media institutions in understanding security issues.

Walking with the words: Student motivation toward reading and studying Shakespeare’s plays through rehearsal room practices

ABSTRACTEducators have long been challenged to support students’ engagement with and comprehension of reading complex texts, including Shakespeare’s plays. Rehearsal room practice (RRP) specifically integrates the rehearsal room processes used by the Royal Shakespeare Company and other ensemble-based theatre companies with active, inquiry-based learning in the classroom. Furthermore, RRP is aligned with a theory of dialogic reading. This quasi-experimental study describes the use and impact of RRPs on high school student attitudes toward reading and perceptions of the value of reading Shakespeare’s plays. Students who experienced RRP while studying Shakespeare’s plays were more motivated, saw Shakespeare’s plays as relevant to their lives, and wanted to read additional challenging texts at the end of the program. Implications for practice are discussed.

Preduzetništvo u turizmu kao izbor profesionalnog usmerenja mladih

As a kind of hallmark of social progress, youth entrepreneurship is represented as a field of study at all levels of formal education in the EU countries. While this trend is insufficiently present in Serbia, it is of great importance to identify the factors that influence the attitudes of high school students and university students in the choice of future profession. Although young people, generally, have positive perceptions on entrepreneurship, a small number of them start their own businesses. As the greatest obstacle in the realization of entrepreneurial ideas, they recognize the unfavourable social environment, i.e. above all, the financial requirements in the initial stages of doing business, high tax levies, legislation, as well as the lack of institutional support. Research results presented in this paper indicate the possible reasons for such respondents' attitudes, as well as the fact that young people have most trust in their families and friends, and least trust in state institutions and banks.
