Enseñar español como lengua extranjera a niños: aportaciones teórico-prácticas
Authors: Asensio Pastor Margarita Isabel
Published: December 2016

En los últimos diez años, la enseñanza-aprendizaje del español como lengua extranjera ha experimentado un crecimiento del alumnado infantil y juvenil. Esto ha obligado a especialistas y a docentes a replantearse la metodología comunicativa de la enseñanza de ELE, teniendo en cuenta las características de este tipo discente en pleno proceso de desarrollo cognitivo, emocional, psicomotriz y lingüístico. Bajo estos parámetros, este artículo recoge una serie de reflexiones epistemológicas y claves didácticas para afronta la programación de un curso de español como lengua extranjera a niños de entre tres y doce años. Estas reflexiones fueron expuestas y desarrolladas en un taller formativo realizado en el Instituto Cervantes de Amán (Jordania).
Evaluating a simulation-based telecare training program for home healthcare professionals: A trainee perspective
Authors: Guise Veslemøy , Wiig Siri
Published: December 2016

Background: The provision and use of telecare services implies new ways of working for home healthcare staff. To gain the knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary for sound telecare practice, staff are in need of thorough training opportunities. Simulation has been suggested as a useful approach to prepare healthcare professionals for providing telecare services. The aim of this study was to test and evaluate a simulation-based telecare training program for qualified healthcare professionals and explore whether it met intended training objectives from the perspective of the trainees.Methods: A total of 14 healthcare professionals working in home healthcare services participated in up to two training sessions, each across two separate days. Data were collected by way of four tape-recorded focus group interviews and field notes from non-participant observations of eight simulation sessions, and were analysed by way of systematic text condensation.Results: The analysis resulted in seven categories addressing trainees’ experiences of partaking in simulated virtual visits; their perceptions of simulation-based telecare training; and their views on the main learning outcomes from the simulation-based training program in question.Conclusions: Simulation-based training provides trainees with realistic insight into the knowledge and skills required for new ways of working through telecare and can thus be a useful way of preparing healthcare professionals for the delivery of telecare services such as virtual home healthcare visits.
ARMS-PCR based diagnosis of APCB and KRAS genes in colorectal cancer patients in Iraqi Sulaimania province
Authors: Salih Gaza Farag , Sudad Shad
Published: December 2016

Amplification Refractory Mutation System (ARMS) assay is achieved for 30 blood samples of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients including 17 male and 13 female in order to determine the mutations in APCB gene and a proto-oncogene KRAS. ARMS-PCR analysis shows that all 30 samples are negative for I1307K variant (APCB) and seven common mutations in codons 12 and 13 (APCB). In addition two CRC patient samples are randomly chosen and purified for sequencing at Genome Center/KOYA University, then the sequence of the samples were BLAST on NCBI Website. The sequence alignment showed that both samples were wild for I1307K (APCB) and (G12S, G12C, G12A, G12D, G12V, G13D) (KRAS). We believe that these variants might absent in CRC patients of Iraqi Sulaimania province.
Ankle Distraction Arthroplasty: Indications, Technique, and Outcomes
Authors: Bernstein Mitchell , Reidler Jay , Fragomen Austin , Rozbruch S. Robert
Published: December 2016

Ankle distraction is an alternative to ankle arthrodesis or total ankle arthroplasty in younger patients with arthritis. Ankle distraction involves the use of external fixation to mechanically unload the ankle joint, which allows for stable, congruent range of motion in the setting of decreased mechanical loading, potentially promoting cartilage repair. Adjunct surgical procedures are frequently done to address lower-extremity malalignment, ankle equinus contractures, and impinging tibiotalar osteophytes. Patients can bear full weight during the treatment course. The distraction frame frequently uses a hinge, and patients are encouraged to do daily range-of-motion exercises. Although the initial goal of the procedure is to delay arthrodesis, many patients achieve lasting clinical benefits, obviating the need for total ankle arthroplasty or fusion. Complications associated with external fixation are common, and patients should be counseled that clinical improvements occur slowly and often are not achieved until at least 1 year after frame removal.
Complex Distal Radius Fractures: An Anatomic Algorithm for Surgical Management
Authors: Rhee Peter Charles , Medoff Robert J. , Shin Alexander Y.
Published: December 2016

Most distal radius fractures result from low-energy mechanisms and can be successfully treated nonsurgically or with a variety of surgical techniques if indicated. High-energy distal radius fractures can involve extensive comminution or bone loss with concomitant ligament, soft-tissue, and neurovascular injuries. In patients with complex distal radius fractures, reconstruction of the distal radius, ulna, and triangular fibrocartilage complex can be challenging. Effective restoration of the bony architecture requires intimate knowledge of the anatomy of the distal radius, a thorough understanding of the goals of treatment, versatility in surgical approaches, and familiarity with multiple fixation options.

Supercooling of Seawater Near the Glacier Front in a Fjord
Authors: Marchenko A. V. , Morozov E. G. , Marchenko N. A.
Published: December 2016

We analyze seawater temperature and salinity in the immediate vicinity of the Paulbreen front in Spitsbergen. The CTD-measurements were carried out from ice in winter and from a boat in summer. ADCP profiling was performed near the glacier front from the ice in winter. In winter, we found water with lower salinity than the surrounding water in the fjord at a distance of 15 m from the glacier front and recorded a low upward water flux near the glacier. Relatively fresh water was found at a depth of 2-4 m near the glacier front in the place where the sea and glacier bed have local depression up to 17 m. Supercooling of the freshened water reached 0.35°C. We link this phenomenon to a flow of freshwater from under a polythermal glacier. This water becomes overcooled in the seawater with significantly lower temperature and higher salinity.

Authors: Tomo Andrea , Landi Giovanni
Published: December 2016

The aim of this work is to understand the role of the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) paradigm in the corporate assessment by investors and the use of this paradigm as guide for managerial decision-making process by corporations. A review of the international literature is provided using five different couples of keywords on Thomson Reuters ISI Web of Knowledge research engine. The literature production increased only after the 2007 crisis and the median year of the results is 2011, thus highlighting just a recent attention to themes as ethics and corporate social responsibility. Main limitations are related to the classic limitations of literature reviews, as the choice of number and type of keywords and journals, the resulting selection of studies, the choice of relevant outcomes and the interpretation, generalization and application of results. The study provides both theoretical and practical implications: a complete review of contributions on the theme is provided; then, some insights in investors and corporations behaviors through the ESG lens, thus suggesting a more ethical and responsible behavior in investment decision-making processes.

CPN Based Modeling of Tourism Demand Forecasting
Authors: Bai Hua , Zhang Haoyuan
Published: December 2016

The tourism demand has become more and more diversified and sensitive to traveling environment, resulting in the high volatility of tourism market. Travel agencies, scenic spots, hotels and other tourism businesses in the tourism supply chain (TSC) need a tight collaboration in order to minimize cost and improve responsiveness and service level. The existence of the bullwhip effect will cause the waste of resources and low efficiency, thus collaborative demand forecasting becomes a good practice to enhance sharing of information and resources, and as a result improving the efficiency and effectiveness of tourism demand forecasting. This paper proposes a collaborative tourism demand forecasting framework based on Colored Petri Net (CPN), which can simulate and examine the effectiveness of tourism supply chain collaboration.
State-level Social Capital and MNCs’ Competitive Political Resources
Authors: Yasuda Naoki
Published: December 2016

Previous studies have focused on the effects of dyadic intergovernmental relationships on firm behavior and performance. This study presents a network approach to intergovernmental relationships and examines two moderating effects at the state and firm levels. This study argues that firm-level competitive political resources are a function of the state-level social capital derived from the structural position in intergovernmental networks, the political institutions of home governments, and foreign experiences of multinational corporations (MNCs). State-level social capital arises from home governments’ positions in intergovernmental networks and offers information and control benefits to MNCs. This study hypothesizes that structural position in intergovernmental networks positively impacts MNC behavior. Moreover, it predicts that political institutions facilitate home governments to leverage their social capital for domestic MNCs. Furthermore, it indicates that MNCs with greater foreign experience utilize political resources more effectively. This study employs data on state-level trade networks and MNC asset procurements in the global mining industry to test these predictions and find support for the model.
Technology Trumping Sleep: Impact of Electronic Media and Sleep in Late Adolescent Students
Authors: Moulin Kerry L. , Chung Chia-Jung
Published: December 2016

The purpose of this research study was to explore with what impact evening media use interfered with either schoolwork and/or sufficient healthy sleep. In addition, the study examined with what impact there may be a compromise in students’ ability or aptitude for positive academic success, related to either lack of sleep or electronic media use. The participants were 89 high school and college students, ages 16 through 25, with median age of 18. Research was conducted using a secured online survey tool. Electronic habits, internet and social networking usage, sleep and rise times, daily sleepiness and perceptions were examined. College students were randomly sampled and participated in an in-depth, one-time survey. High school students participated in a weeklong nightly electronic sleep & evening media use survey and journal. Data was obtained from anonymous and coded student responses and student and teacher surveys. The results of the study suggested that healthful adolescent sleep is indeed greatly compromised, during a time when the reverse is vitally important. Of students randomly sampled, all but one student owned a cell phone. In the total study group, a majority were smart phone owner-users (84%). Many high school participants slept with a cell phone or tablet in their bed (72%), and among college participants who regularly slept with cell phone, tablet, or laptop, this rose to 86%. Over half of these students continued to access and use their devices in bed for significant amounts of time prior to sleeping. Many of these even awakened after falling asleep to access or respond to electronic messaging. The research indicated that unhealthy sleep habits may be creating a generation of sleep-deprived individuals who may not be functioning at top capacity. Findings regarding a correlation between lack of sleep and quantified academic success are inconclusive, however, student perceptions indicate that they believe there is a relationship. Findings also suggest that all instructors of late adolescent students aged 16-25 may count on the fact of their student clientele owning and using mobile devices to access internet for social purposes. Students allow their social digital world to impede and compete with their academic time and biological sleep cycle. Instructors would be wise to appropriately channel the digital skills of this new generation of no longer-wired, but now “wi-fied” students. Therefore it is strongly suggested that teachers, parents, and medical personnel adopt and provide healthy guidelines for parents to use with pre-teens and teens, to facilitate and develop in the next generation of students some structure and means of protecting their health in the realms of electronics and sleep.
The Comparison of Deterrence Punishment for Trade Violations in Ja’fari Jurisprudence and Iran Trade Laws
Authors: Nakhaei Abbas
Published: December 2016

Background and objective: In the present study, the comparison of deterrence punishment for trade violations in Ja’fari jurisprudence and Iran trade was examined. Also, the effectiveness of these punishments on reduction of trade violations and the necessity of institutionalizing religious orders in different trades were discussed.Methodology: the method used in the present study is descriptive-analytical and it used different trade laws and Islamic narrations and Hadith. According to the variety of trade violations in governmental and non- governmental sectors, seven important violations of hoarding, health violations, business fraud, not to include price, smuggling, use of short weights, and overcharge were discussed in the present study.According to the main objective of the executives of punishments for trade violators to support and observe consumer rights and also the study of Quranic verses, narrations and Hadith, showed that paying less attention to religious orders has a positive effect on trade violations. Inflation in commodity price and sanction of some consumable commodities has also a positive effect on reduction of trade violations deterrence. The results also showed that the effectiveness of trade violations deterrence is more than its legal resources according to religious and Islamic factors mentioned in Ja’fari jurisprudence. Thus, the necessity of approving a comprehensive trade system law with the approach of institutionalizing the culture of Islam based on trade laws of Ja’fari jurisprudence is felt.

Published: December 2016

When considering the jurisprudence despite the apparent integrity in the whole structure and nature, from the perspective of subject-internal divisions, differences can be seen that cannot be denied. Classification of different sectors of jurisprudence on issues involving, apart from a facility that creates for the visit and study is the evidence for the existence of differences in the divider. Attention to these differences is underlying of some today's theories. For example, facing with increasing developments of social phenomena and the need for flexibility and dynamic of jurisprudence, a theory is partly accepted that refers to the existence and attention to constant and variable domains in the jurisprudence provisions. The result of this approach generally introduces the domain of changes as transactions jurisprudence that when necessary has the ability to change, while constants are worshiping jurisprudence that stability is considered a fundamental pillar of their validity. That jurisprudence in the area of variable transactions can be seen transform and synchronize with changes is originating from nature that is the distinction of this part from other areas of juridical. In other words, the other property of transactions jurisprudence that originates from features such as the guidance of the commandments in this passage, arguing the provisions for the detention of worship section, religious orders and, ultimately, the possibility of understanding Sari materials for concealment of worship materials on human intellects causes that jurisprudent not considered its structure far from the availability of human reason and by understanding its materials provides the extended field and at the time of considered non-interest permit to change easily. This article briefly from these special privileges of transactions jurisprudence as the principles of development provides an analytical report.

Authors: Mosavi Syed Abolhasan , Afrogh Abdolmohammad
Published: December 2016

Cyberspace is considered as one of the most modern means for conclusion of contracts and meeting the obligations arising from that, particularly in commercial transactions. The nature of electronic contracts- in terms of creditability, form and homogeneity with public disciplines and regulations of civil law about the contracts- is a new topic based on which recognition and investigation on the legal effects depend on formal structure of cyberspace and information and communication technology concepts known in this area. Present work mainly investigates following items: Electronic contract conclusion and specific properties of such agreements, effect of electronic trait on its way of formation as well as compatibility of public rules and regulation of electronic contracts in Iranian Electronic Commerce Act and UNCITRAL model law. Electronic contract principally does not differ traditional ones in terms of nature. However, structure of cyberspace has brought up new specifications and concepts. A descriptive-analytical method with comparative approach were used for data collection. Current rules and regulations at contracts area in traditional space seem to not be able to completely meet emerging rights in cyberspace but beside traditional legal basics, some rules and regulations are necessary to eliminate existing confusion by setting determination in modern legal uncertainties. Present study tries to answer above queries by assessment and comparison of location and time of contract conclusion in Electronic Commerce Act and UNCITRAL Model Law.

According to the results due to the lack of law records in civil code, hire purchase has not been explained in Iran law and needs to be characterized separately.
Changes in the concentration of pollen over an 11-year period in a Polish urban environment
Authors: Majkowska-Wojciechowska Barbara , Balwierz Zofia , Kowalski Marek L.
Published: December 2016

Recent studies suggest that climate change can influence plant reproductive systems and have an impact on the increase in allergenic pollen in atmospheric air; highly allergenic pollen may intensify the allergic response in people. The aim of our study was to evaluate the seasonal dynamic concentration of the most allergenic pollen taxa, i.e., the following trees: Alnus, Corylus, Betula, and herbaceous plants: grasses (Poaceae), Artemisia, and Ambrosia, in the long-term period of 2003–2013 in the city of Lodz, Poland. Weekly airborne pollen concentrations were evaluated with a volumetric Lansoni pollen trap. The beginning and the end of the season were calculated by the 98% method. The birch (Betula) pollen was at the highest level and accounted for 79%, followed by alder (Alnus) – 19%, and hazel (Corylus) – 2%. Among the herbaceous taxa, grasses (Poaceae) pollen dominated – 79%, followed by mugwort (Artemisia) – 18%, and ragweed (Ambrosia) – 3%. Our findings indicate a lack of qualitative and quantitative change in the pollen produced over the 11-year period.
Nem Sola Scriptura, nem Solus Spiritus: a revelação na dimensão do humano
Authors: Rocha Abdruschin Schaeffer
Published: December 2016

O presente artigo se propõe discutir a revelação na dimensão do humano. Nesse sentido, parte do pressuposto de que tanto no protestantismo histórico quanto no pentecostalismo tal dimensão, e as contingências que daí derivam, não foram devidamente consideradas, na medida em que ambas as tradições recorrem a uma suposta “garantia da pureza” da revelação. No protestantismo, tal garantia fora buscada nas Escrituras, na medida em que ao evocar a autoridade das Escrituras, os reformadores acreditavam poder garantir a integridade da revelação, dentro de um suposto “ambiente higienizado”; no pentecostalismo, essa suposta segurança fora afiançada pelo Espírito, afinal, alimenta-se da forte expectativa de um encontro pessoal com Deus, que em sua imediaticidade supostamente garantiria a pureza da revelação. Assumindo as limitações e subjetividade humanas inerentes ao processo de recepção da revelação, propõe-se, portanto, uma revelação que se dê nos limites da história; uma revelação que se dê nos limites da linguagem; e uma revelação que se dê nos limites da vulnerabilidade humana.
Somos irmãos dos outros animais? Diálogo da ecoteologia com Jorge Riechmann
Authors: Murad Afonso Tadeu
Published: December 2016

Jorge Riechmann é autor de vasta obra dedicada à reflexão filosófica sobre ecologia e sustentabilidade. Dentre seus trabalhos significativos, escolhemos “Todos los animales somos hermanos” (2005). Apresentaremos uma síntese do pensamento do autor a respeito da relação dos seres humanos com os outros animais, sobretudo os mamíferos. Riechmann aborda temas candentes, como o contínuo fisio-biológico-social do processo de evolução e a singularidade do humano, os motivos para incluir os animais superiores na comunidade moral humana, e as razões éticas e jurídicas dos direitos dos animais. Deve-se superar o especismo, que considera os animais somente como meros instrumentos. Embora os animais não sejam pessoas, nem agentes morais, tem valor intrínseco. Porque sentem dor e prazer, e apresentam uma finalidade para viver, merecem respeito moral. São “quase pessoas” e tem direitos, concedidos e reconhecidos pelos seres humanos. A seguir, faremos um exercício de interlocução da ecoteologia com Jorge Riechmann. Tomaremos como referência a Encíclica Laudato Si e a obra de Susin e Zampieri, Ética e Teologia da Libertação animal.
Levinas e a teologia
Authors: Campos Fabiano Victor
Published: December 2016

Este estudo visa abordar o problema da teologia no pensamento de Emmanuel Levinas. De início, procuramos tecer um breve mapeamento dos diferentes usos do termo teologia por Levinas. Com isso, buscamos evidenciar que Levinas propõe um novo sentido para o vocábulo em questão, diverso em relação àquele em que se define como discurso racional sobre Deus. Concomitantemente, tentamos mostrar que a crítica levinasiana se dirige sobretudo à teologia racional, por causa de seu conúbio histórico com a filosofia, cuja essência é então definida em termos de uma aspiração à unidade absoluta. Dobrando-se às exigências racionais de universalidade conceitual e inclinando-se à insatisfação relativa ao conhecimento, a teologia padeceria da tentação de abster-se do sofrimento de outrem, relegando a práxis responsável a segundo plano em relação à primazia outorgada ao conhecimento e ao amor a Deus. Identificadas as razões pelas quais Levinas julga dever criticar a teologia racional, nos propomos a enfrentar o desafio de uma possível caracterização do próprio discurso levinasiano sobre Deus, definindo-o não em termos de teologia negativa, mas como um discurso pretensamente “filosófico”, desde que aí se subentenda a primazia da ética em relação à ontologia, mas sem que a tensão entre os dois níveis de significação, o ético e o ontológico, seja suprimida. Com isso, procuramos evidenciar qual é o exato lugar que a teologia ocupa no seio do discurso levinasiano, dada a distinção que o autor estabelece entre testemunho e teologia. À teologia enquanto discurso racional sobre Deus é anteposta uma espécie sui generis de teofania, uma revelação de Deus mediante o encontro ético com o outro humano.
Corpos ditos pelo outro: Uma leitura de Michel de Certeau
Authors: De Mori Geraldo Luiz , Buarque Virgínia
Published: December 2016

O objetivo deste artigo é tematizar a reflexão de Michel de Certeau sobre os sentidos atribuídos ao corpo pela cultura ocidental, apontando também suas ressignificações pela religiosidade cristã. Para tanto, em termos metodológicos, atentou-se aos diálogos interdisciplinares promovidos por este autor, que transitava entre os campos da psicanálise, da história, da linguística, da filosofia, da teologia e da espiritualidade. Como primeira hipótese, postula-se que, para De Certeau, o corpo configura-se como uma “ficção” viabilizadora de práticas sociais, ou seja, uma instância de “autoridade” capaz de suscitar adesões, conflitos e transformações. Isto porque, segundo este intelectual jesuíta, o corpo constitui-se, simultaneamente, tanto como um aporte simbólico de poderes institucionalizados, como mediação para bricolagens, desvios e transgressões político-culturais promovidas no cotidiano. De forma concomitante, considera-se como segunda hipótese que, como indicado por De Certeau, o corpo na tradição cristã foi também vivenciado como instância “mística”, isto é, enunciador, por suas manifestações, do anseio por ser habitado por um outro/Outro. Sugere-se ainda que a atualização dessa condição existencial e política no tempo presente viabiliza aos sujeitos positivarem sua intrínseca incompletude e fragilidade humanas, favorecendo, em decorrência, experiências histórico-sociais mais sensíveis e compartilhadas.

STRES KAO POSLJEDICA EKONOMSKE KRIZE I TRANZICIJE DRUŠTVA
Authors: Škrbić Vojislav , Bakić Ranko
Published: December 2016

Ekonomska kriza i tranzicija društva oduvijek su imali za posljedicu pad privredne aktivnosti te nagli porast nezaposlenosti praćen osiromašenjem većeg dijela stanovništva Posljednje decenije dvadesetog i prva decenija dvadeset prvog vijeka obilježile su nezaustavljivo napredovanje globalizacije, koja je u početku davala sigurnost, odnosno pothranjivalo iluzije da velike ekonomske krize pripadaju prošlosti. Međutim proces globalizacije je sam po sebi stvorio jedan veliki nerealni finansijski balon koji se na kraju morao rasprsnuti, tako da je tokom 2008. godine došlo do pojave globalne finansijske krize koja je tokom naredne godine prerasla u ekonomsku. Takođe se pokazalo da se tranzicija društvenog vlasništva u privatnu svojinu dobrim dijelom odvijala na veoma netransparentan način. Naime, u većini slučajeva došle su do izražaja špekulacije od strane novih vlasnika u smislu daljne preprodaje preduzeća, što je imalo za posljedicu gubitak velikog broja radnih mjesta i stvaranja armije ljudi bez ikakvog zaposlenja i nade u isto. Kao direktna posljedica ekonomske krize i tranzicijskih kretanja došlo je rasta nezaposlenosti praćenog opštim siromaštvom većine stanovništva. Ovakvi vidovi poremećaja u čovjekovom okruženja znatno utiču i ozbiljno narušavaju ravnotežu ljudskog organizma što dovodi do povećanog nivoa stresa. Kako su ekonomske krize i tranzicija veliki generatori stresa, a pošto su istom izloženi najširi slojevi stanovništva neminovno je provoditi društvene mjere zaštite od stresa.

Published: December 2016

Ovaj rad bavi se problemima prikupljanja dokaza o izvršenom deliktu korupcije pomoću računarske odnosno digitalne forenzike. Prikazana je raznovrsnost pojavnih oblika korupcije na našem području i istraženi su mogući načini sprječavanja korupcije i ublažavanja njenih pogubnih efekata koje pružaju pravni okvir u državi i koja sugerišu iskustva drugih država. Pod ublažavanjem pogubnih efekata korupcije smatra se upotreba metoda digitalne forenzike u prikupljanju dokaza o izvršenom krivičnom djelu koji su validni i koji se priznaju u dokaznom sudskom postupku. Opservira se i sa nekim nekonvencionalnim, do sada nespominjanim, načinima prevencije i sprječavanja korupcije i ublažavanja njenih, po društvo i ekonomiju, pogubnih efekata. Sugeriše se i jedan model podizanja svijesti stanovništva i prevencije korupcije i sajber kriminala neformalnim obrazovanjem i obukom učenika i studenata.

Termalni izvori na Topličkom polju u jugoistočnom dijelu općine Živinice stvorili su specifična jezerca i vodotok pun malih slapova koji su uz topla isparenja i plodno zemljište omogućili nastajanje jedinstvene flore i faune.O bogatstvu i kontinuitetu života na ovom polju najbolje svjedoče nekropole stećaka i mnogobrojne vodenice.Zbog toga je 1970-tih godina odlučeno da se na ovom prostoru sagradi regionalni sportsko-rekreaciono-turistički centar i nakon izrade urbanističko-regulacionog plana pristupilo se izgradnji prvih objekata.Četrdeset godina poslije nije se daleko odmaklo u tim nastojanjima iz razloga koji se analiziraju u ovom radu ali se nije ni odustalo od prvobitne ideje koja se u novonastalim društveno-ekonomskim okolnostima samo prilagođava novim uslovima. Ta nastojanja dodatno usložnjava činjenica da je ovaj započeti sportsko-rekreaciono-turistički centar po svom kapacitetu od regionalnog značaja a da je njegova izgradnja i održavanje u isključivoj nadležnosti općine Živinice koja nije dostigla potreban stupanj ekonomskog razvoja da bi mogla završiti ovaj centar.Zbog toga je općina započela izgradnju centra u fazama i u sadejstvu sa privatnim sektorom tako da se nakon nekoliko decenija osjećaju prvi pozitivni pomaci .
INFORMACIJE I ZNANJE KAO KLJUČNI RESURSI ZA POTREBE INTERAKTIVNOG UČENJA
Authors: Brzaković Miodrag , Straživuk Duška
Published: December 2016

Osnovni cilj ovog rada je da se sagleda mesto i značaj informacija i znanja kao ključnih resursa za potrebe obezbeđenja interaktivnog učenja u nastavnom procesu. Imajući u vidu da tradicionalna nastava sve više ustupa mesto interaktivnoj, a u cilju prevazilaženja da učesnik u nastavi bude samo pasivni objekat. Od interaktivnog pristupa se očekuje da obezbedi pronalaženje novih rešenja, kritički stav prema iznesenim stavovima i da pronalazi puteve za nova rešenja. Ovo zahteva da se kod dizajniranja i planiranja nastave obezbede uslovi da se razmotri niz faktora koje opredeljuju koje aktivnosti bi trebalo uključiti u sam proces nastave.

U ovom radu prikazan je sve brţi i intenzivniji razvitak našeg privrednog ţivota, te razvoja, unapreĊenja promotivnih aktivnosti u okviru trţišnog poslovanja preduzeća, te integralno, cjelovito uspješno ostvarenje zacrtanih ciljeva poslovne politike. Ta me je ĉinjenica kao i strategija potakla da pokušam obraditi Organizaciju sluţbe unapreĊenja prodaje. Savremena industrijska proizvodnja, povećana ponuda i potraţnja, sve veći odreĊeni zahtjevi potrošaĉa da dobiju kvalitetniju robu, sve bitniji odnos prizvoĊaĉa prema ukusu i zahtjevima potrošaĉa, konkurentnosti na domaćem i stranom trţištu, potrebe za što intenzivnijem ukljuĉivanjem na svjetskom trţištu – sve su to ĉinjenice koje se odraţavaju u svakom preduzeću i u našem privatnom ţivotu u cjelini. Te ĉinjenice odluĉno traţe da se sve promotivne djelatnosti cjelovito, organizaciono i funkcionalno još više razviju i usklade, da bi u daljem razvitku naše ekonomije dale svoj doprinos i ubrzale taj razvitak.

RAČUNOVODSTVO ZAŠTITE ŽIVOTNE SREDINE
Authors: Vujnović – Gligorić Bogdana
Published: December 2016

Zadnjih godina su sve izraţeniji zahtjevi menadţmenta za informacijama o efikasnosti provedenih aktivnosti na podruĉju zaštite ţivotne sredine. U radu će se prezentovati teoretske spoznaje o sadrţaju raĉunovodstva zaštite ţivotne sredine, odnosno ekološkog raĉunovodstva (kao segmenta upravljaĉkog, odnosno menadţerskog raĉunovodstva), kako bi se osigurala podloga za efikasno upravljanje ekologijom. Cilj je stvoriti metodološku osnovu u upravljaĉkom raĉunovodstvu koja će omogućiti planiranje, praćenje i kontrolu troškova zaštite ţivotne sredine i njihovo dovoĊenje u vezu sa oĉekivanim koristima, odnosno prihodima. Na raĉunovodstvenoj evidenciji je potrebno modelirati finansijske izvještaje prilagoĊene interesima razliĉitih korisnika, a posebno internih korisnika.Obzirom na globalizaciju i otvorenost trţišta, neophodno je uvaţiti savremene osnove obraĉuna troškova, od kojih se posebno istiĉe obraĉun troškova po aktivnostima. Softverska rješenja je potrebno oblikovati tako što će obuhvatati i razvrstavati troškove zaštite ţivotne sredine u momentu njihovog nastajanja i shodno tome modelirati izvještaje. Takav pristup će poboljšati kvalitet informacione baze, a time i kvalitet odluĉivanja kod ulaganja u odrţivi razvoj, shodno propisima. To je ujedno i podsticaj kreiranja raĉunovodstvenog informacionog sistema koji bi generisao vrijednosno izraţene informacije.
IMA LI EU KONZISTENTNU FISKALNU POLITIKU?
Authors: Muratović Husein
Published: December 2016

U ovom Radu analiziran je postojeći koncept provoĊenja stabilizacione fiskalne politike u Evropskoj uniji (EU), odnosno evropskoj Ekonomskoj i monetarnoj uniji (EMU). Evropska unija (EU), a posebno unutar toga, evropska Ekonomska i monetarna unija, predstavlja u svijetu jedinstveni sluĉaj u kojem se u provoĊenju ekonomske politike kombinuje centralizovana monetarna politika i decentralizovane ostale makroekonomske i strukturne politike, od kojih se prvenstveno istiĉe fiskalna politika, koja, da bi bila stabilizujuća u sloţenim sistemima drţava (kakav je EU), mora biti i harmonizovana. S obzirom da je suverenitet u poreskoj politici na nacionalnim drţavama i da one vrlo ĉesto krše odredbe Mastriških kriterija konvergencije i Pakta o stabilnosti, što rezultira velikim turbulencijama, postavlja se logiĉno pitanje: da li EU ima konzistentnu fiskalnu politiku?

Authors: Đidić Zekija
Published: December 2016

Proizvodni kapacitet jednog proizvodnog sistema predstavlja sposobnost proizvodnje više vrsta proizvoda. Uspostavljanje proizvodnog kapaciteta je usko vezano sa zahtjevima trţišta, u odnosu na vrstu, dimenziju, oblik, kvalitet i sl. izrade gotovih proizvoda. Projektovanje kapaciteta ukljuĉuje i njegovo osposobljavanje za razliĉite varijante njegovog korišćenja. Fiksni troškovi nastaju uspostavljanjem kapaciteta, a varijabilni troškovi nastaju izradom svake nove jedinice proizvoda. Cilj menadţmenta preduzeća je praćenje i upravljanje ponašanjem troškova kao elementa ulaganja.

Authors: Muslija Adnan
Published: December 2016

Islamske finansije su napravile znaĉajan napredak na meĊunarodnim finansijskim trţištima. Evidentno je da su danas islamske finansije prisutne u više od 75 zemalja širom svijeta, posebno u muslimanskim zemljama. U pogledu finansijske infrastrukture, Malezijski islamski finansijski sistem je istovremeno, i velik, i u procesu kontinuiranog rasta. Na trţištu su prisutni razni investitori s islamskim bankama, prvenstveno investicionim bankama. Cilj ovog rada je prikazati konceptualno razumijevanje rasta islamskih finansija u Maleziji, analizirajući trenutni i budući razvoj. Uĉešće u procesu islamskih finansija zahtijeva razvoj sveobuhvatnog islamskog finansijskog sistema, adekvatne finansijske infrastrukture kao što je: širok spektar proizvoda, zakonska regulativa, niske takse, jeftini uvjeti poslovanja, visoki standardi etike poslovanja, i prihvatljivi uvjeti ţivota. TakoĊer je potrebno prisustvo edukovanog ljudskog kapitala koji će doprinijeti daljem razvoju. Ovaj rad ima za cilj prikazati platformu razvoja islamskih finansija u Maleziji.
STABILIZACIJA PRIHODA BANKE KROZ STRUKTUIRANJE OPTIMALNOG PORTFELJA
Authors: Milanović Aleksandar
Published: December 2016

U ekonomskoj teoriji su prisutne brojne metode kontrolisanja rizika hartija od vrijednosti u cilju odrţavanja stabilnosti portfelja. Teorijski, moguće je od dvije najzastupljenije hartija od vrijednosti, tj. od akcije i obveznice, saĉiniti neriziĉnu strukturu portfelja. Takva mogućnost se opravdava ĉinjenicom da ove dvije hartije od vrijednosti imaju tokom vremena razliĉite promjene trţišne vrijednosti, a time i promjene u riziku prinosa prilikom trgovanja sa njima. Bez obzira što se ulaganje u HoV (posebno u drţavne obveznice) smatra relativno sigurnim poslom, mora se uzeti u obzir mnogo faktora koji mogu da djeluju na ta ulaganja.

Authors: Muslija Adnan
Published: December 2016

Iako mlada institucija, islamsko bankarstvo sve više postaje globalistiĉki proces sa izraţenim ten-dencijama daljeg rasata. Islamsko bankarstvo ima svoje specifiĉnosti koje se oĉituju u modelima finansiran-ja. Rad analizira praktiĉne aspekte islamskih finansija i alternative koje nudi menadţerima u korporativnom sektoru u iznalaţenju modela finasiranja, tj. mušareka, mudaraba, opadajuća mušareka, idţara, selem i istisna. U radu se daje kratak prikaz specifiĉnosti modela finansiranja, beskamatnih finansija i stvaranje ravnoteţe u društvu.
STRATEGIJA I SREDSTVA UPRAVLJANJA LIKVIDNOŠĆU BANAKA
Authors: Milanović Aleksandar
Published: December 2016

Banke u trţišnoj ekonomiji moraju permanentno obezbjeĊivati dnevnu likvidnost u svom poslovanju. Odrţavanje likvidnosti smatra se osnovnom pretpostavkom za odrţivost banke na finansijskom trţištu. Najkraće reĉeno, „likvidnost banke je njena sposobnost da izvršava svoje obaveze o rokovima dospeća.“ Da bi se odrţala stalna likvidnost mora se formirati optimalni finansijski potencijal, kao i adekvatna procjena likvidnosti koja se moţe objasniti kroz pokazatelje tekuće i brze likvidnosti, kao i obrtnog kapitala.

UPRAVLJANJE NOVČANIM SREDSTVIMA U PREDUZEĆU
Authors: Banović Marica
Published: December 2016

Efikasno upravljanje novĉanim sredstvima i upravljanja finansijama preduzeća oduvijek je bilo znaĉajno za funkcionisanje "zdravog" preduzeća. Sa aspekta upravljanja novĉanim sredstvima preduzeće ima nuţnu potrebu da se pridrţava dva osnovna naĉela: neĉelo rentabilnosti i naĉelo likvidnosti. U radu će se govoriti o bitnosti i povezanosti naĉela rentabilnosti i naĉela likvidnosti, kao osnovnom motivu poslovanja preduzeća. Upravljane gotovinom stavlja u fokus permanentno balansiranje izmeĊu dva navedena baziĉna naĉela. Dosadašnja iskustva govore da i najlikvidnijim i najrentabilnijim preduzećima ĉesto nedostaju novĉana sredstva. Rješenje nije uvijek u pribavljanju novih sredstava već u optimiziranju vlastitih sredstava, odnosno usklaĊivanju odliva sa oĉekivanim prilivima novca. Potrebno je da preduzeće pronaĊe najpovoljniju kombinaciju za odrţavanja likvidnosti, uz istovremeno ostvarivanje rentabilnosti poslovanja, a što je prikazano kroz upravljanje gotovinom.
